After returning to Luliang, Zhu Junjuan invited him to meet Hou Ye.

reported: "Master Hou, Zhu Jun came to report on the Taihang Flower Demon. ”

Jizhou Hou stepped forward and hurriedly helped Zhu Jun. said: "General Zhu, you can be regarded as back, I have been waiting for the progress of the Taihang Flower Demon." I don't know what good news General Zhu has brought. ”

Su Cheng also walked in from outside the inn. said: "I just heard the news of General Zhu's return to the city, and the old man felt it, I don't know if there has been a new development in the matter of the Taihang Flower Demon?"

When Su Qiang saw Su Cheng coming in, his face obviously became very bad.

scolded in his heart: "This old horseman, this is completely indifferent to me, everyone knows that the wealth of Baihualou is enough to cover three years of military expenditures." came to inquire about the news so blatantly, he must have wanted to share a piece of the pie in the meantime, which is really angry. ”

Then he said: "The minister of state really forgot to sleep and eat, and he is so concerned about the government affairs in Jizhou, but it makes me bow down." Why don't we work together once, what does the Minister think?"

Su Cheng knew it very well in his heart. Pondered: "I don't know what you mean, don't you just want to plunder the wealth of Baihualou for yourself, and you really haven't made any progress." What if I want to give away all the wealth of Baihualou? If I can catch the big demon of Baihualou, my stubborn old injuries and cultivation, wouldn't it be a thousand miles in a day. When the time comes, I won't believe you can do anything about it?"

Thinking of this, Su Cheng almost didn't laugh out loud. But he said: "I don't know what good news General Zhu brings, so it's okay to say it and listen to it together." ”

After Zhu Jun saluted one by one. Only then did he say slowly: "It turns out that all this is a misunderstanding, we are making a fuss and mistakenly thinking that there is a flower demon in Taihang Mountain." Actually, it wasn't a flower demon, but a yin spirit. ”

Su Qiang's face suddenly became extremely embarrassed, he originally thought it was good news, but now when he heard the yin spirit, he felt that someone was kneeling on the ground and reaching out to him to ask for silver, Su Qiang was in a very bad mood.

Then he said: "Since it is the yin spirit, presumably this matter of the gods and ghosts and the yin spirit is the national teacher's specialty, and I, Su Qiang, will be involved in it, and everything will be handled by the national teacher, and I, a layman, will not disturb you to discuss the solution." ”

When Zhu Jun heard this, he knew what Hou Ye was thinking, even if he wanted to say something, he didn't have a chance to open his mouth, after all, he was not a general under Jizhou Hou.

The national teacher's face was also ugly. But he still said against his will: "Thank you Hou Ye for your success, I will definitely try my best to do this well and share Hou Ye's worries." ”

Su Cheng said: "I don't know if General Zhu has any good advice? I haven't taken over such matters for many years, and I'm also a lot unfamiliar, and I hope the general will forgive me." If the general has any mature suggestions, I won't bother much, if I need anything, this is my city lord token, and I hope the general can dispose of it himself. ”

After speaking, without waiting for Zhu Jun to respond, he had already disappeared outside the door of the inn, walking in a hurry, as if he would be blackmailed if he stood for a while.

Zhu Jun looked at the City Lord Token and the Jizhou Marquis Mansion Token in his hand, and his heart was already happy.

When he arrived at the barracks, Zhu Jun couldn't help but give Chen Xin a thumbs up. said: "Brother Chenxin is really powerful, after I said what you taught me, Hou Ye and the national teacher were afraid to avoid it, and they hid far away. Is this really just to keep the military salary?"

Chen Xin said: "Military salary is only one aspect. The main thing is that they don't want to involve themselves in the Yin Spirit Incident and cause dissatisfaction among the people. ”

Zhu Jun was puzzled.

Chen Xin had no choice but to explain: "As long as the Yin Spirit of Taihang Mountain is mentioned, almost everyone will think of Zhou Gong and his zombie army, and some old people will even think of the battle of Shang and Zhou. If you accidentally make a mistake, your future will be ruined, and you will even face jail time. ”

Zhu Jun still didn't know anything about it, but he vaguely understood it.

said: "In other words, they don't know the attitude of the Son of Heaven towards Zhou Gong. If you are willing to accept the achievements of Duke Zhou, it will naturally be a good opportunity to be promoted and make a fortune, but if the emperor of the Celestial Empire is unwilling to accept it, then he will be burned and disposed of as a rebel. ”

Candle Day was confused. He asked: "What does this have to do with the Son of Heaven? Could it be that he still has the final say, and shouldn't it be the will of the people? Now that the Hou Ye and the national teacher are avoiding it, isn't it obvious that the Son of Heaven is evidence that opposes the acceptance of Duke Zhou's political achievements?"

Chen Xin said: "So they are the cunning old foxes, they know very well that the Son of Heaven has always been arbitrary, and will not tolerate other people's exploits surpassing their own. Therefore, if the matter is pushed to General Zhu's head, if something happens, General Zhu and Zikong Xiaohou will be blamed. If there is no accident, they will definitely not spread the rumors, but want to solve the trouble as soon as possible, so that the matter will not be resolved, and it will be over to reward General Zhu in private. ”

Zhu Jun said: "Then according to the current situation, how should we deal with this matter?"

Chen Xin said: "Whether it is the Hou Ye, the Prime Minister, or the Son of Heaven, they all hope that the matter can be resolved quietly, and it is best to be content with the status quo and not have any rumors, so as to show their merits and good governance." Therefore, we can't go too far, just gather the people nearby to go to Taihang Mountain to pray sincerely and resolve the grievances of those yin spirits underground. ”

When Candle Tian heard it, it turned out to be a familiar way. He said: "Isn't it a sacrifice? I am familiar with this, and I can guarantee that there will be no mistakes in the slightest." ”

Chen Xin said: "Everyone can do this, but you can't do it." Master, you really have a good memory, it's only been a few days, and you forget that you are a scapegoat, and whether it is Lu Liangcheng or Hou Ye's army, no one wants to kill you, and he went to Hou Ye with his head to ask for merit and receive a reward. If you want to go, we won't stop you. ”

Hearing this, Zhu Jun and Snake Right also let go of the gap in front of them and let go of the road leading to the outside.

Candle Tian was suddenly unhappy.

said: "I don't treat you weekdays, why do you want me to die so much now? Big sister, especially you, think about it, from beginning to end, as long as you speak, have I ever shirked it? And General Zhu, although I killed the little Marquis of Zikong by mistake, but I have already explained that I was controlled by others, and it was not my intention at all. ”

Tatsumi hears this. said: "Master, if you don't mention this, I almost forgot to remind everyone." ”

Candle Sky said: "It won't have anything to do with me, if that's the case, I'll be too miserable." ”

Chen Xin said: "This matter has something to do with all of us. Before, I couldn't figure out why the national teacher should be a soldier, but now that I think about it, the national teacher is probably not as simple as we see. He wanted to start a war with the Marquis of Jizhou, so he borrowed our hands to kill the little Marquis. ”

Candle Tian was immediately annoyed. scolded: "This old boy is so bad, he actually controls my mind and kills people on the street, so I will teach him a good lesson." ”

Zhu Jun said: "In this way, the real culprit who killed the little marquis is the former national teacher, that is, Su Cheng, the minister of state in Luliang City?"

Candle Tian hurriedly grabbed Zhu Jun and said, "General Zhu, this is not the time for revenge. Besides, among the few of us, except for the eldest sister who can fight with one, the others are sent to death, which is completely unnecessary. ”

Tatsushin patted his head. Said helplessly: "What's going on, now the master and General Zhu can't go out, except for the eldest sister, I can't control your whereabouts, all in all, the only person here who can go out to do things, I'm the only one left, it's really hard." ”

Chen Xin walked in front of Zhu Jun. Took a look. Stretching out his hand to grab Zhu Jun's waist, Zhu Jun thought that Chen Xin was going to stun him, so he hurriedly took a few steps back. But Chenxin's speed was faster, and as soon as he grabbed the two tokens, he walked out of the gate of the barracks.

Things went smoothly, almost all the people still remembered the deeds of Zhou Gong Ji Dan, and before Chen Xin explained the ins and outs of the matter, ninety percent of the people automatically gathered, took their own offerings and incense burners, and lined up to gather in the barracks.

In half a day, the people were almost all gathered. Chen Xin then said: "Listen to me first, this sacrifice does not require sacrifices and incense burners, but requires your sincere prayers to influence the grievances that have been gathered by those fallen soldiers for a long time, and send their Yin spirits to the place where they should go and start a new life." ”

Seeing the commotion of the crowd, Chen Xin continued: "There is not enough time now, and the sun is about to set. Tomorrow morning, when the sky is bright, everyone will be on the edge of the big river outside Luliang City, facing the direction of Taihang Mountain, sincerely praying for the souls of the dead, sending everyone's wishes to the heavens, and helping those soldiers who fought bloodily to get out of the sea of suffering. ”

The people were full of promises, and then they walked towards their earthen houses one after another, and the tired Chen's heart was dry, and he even felt his teeth chatter when he opened his mouth, and waved his arm forward to show his dissatisfaction with the cold weather.

Early the next morning, in the mountains of Taihang Mountain, bursts of streamers suddenly fell, but those streamers only lasted for an hour, and then dissipated into mist and landed in the north mountain of Taihang Mountain.

Then those weak yin spirits who had nowhere to stay and could only cling to the immortal bones began to become irritable, and they broke away from the immortal bones and cried wolves on the north mountain, causing Hua Gongzi and his wife to be upset for a while.

Then he walked out of the cave and looked at the people in the sky and in the clouds.

said: "Your Excellency is the hall master of the Demon Soul Hall of the Divine Void Realm, what do you want to do with the Soul Suppression Tower? Do you think I will be afraid of you? ”

The person who came said apologetically: "Qingyu has seen Zhou Gong, I didn't mean to come, but the people of Luliang City petitioned me to come and resolve the grievances of the Yin Ling of the fallen soldiers in Beishan, I have nothing to do, and I hope Zhou Gong will forgive me." ”

Zhou Gong said: "Since it is a petition from the people, it must be a few boys who have done something wrong with good intentions, so you can go back first, I will handle the matter here, and there is no need for people from the divine realm to interfere." ”

Qingyu tossed and turned, but still withdrew the streamer, took back the Soul Suppression Tower, and wanted to leave quickly after thanking him.

At this time, Lady Yaksha said: "Since you are here, I can't let you go back empty-handed, I do have some flower demons here who died in vain, you can take their flower spirits away and take care of them, presumably this is not a difficult thing for the Lord of the Jade Palace." That's why I'm here. ”

Qingyu reluctantly took out the Demon Suppression Tower, and included all the vain flower demon flower spirits in Beishan, before slowly turning around and leaving. In my heart, I have already scolded Mrs. Yaksha thousands of times.

"You woman, you really see the needle, you know that now that monsters are rampant, it is difficult for the undead to survive. Now hand over these flower demons and flower spirits to me, don't you just want me to use the essence and cultivation of other demons to feed these flower demons for you? ”
