Chapter 65: Leave your clothes off
Qi Xuansu said that he was going to test Yanxiu's knife, but he changed his mind when it came to the end, after all, the goal of "Feiying Bai" was too big, and it was easy to leave traces.
So Qi Xuansu finally decided to solve the problem with his fists.
As for whether anyone can see the flaws in the boxing method, it is not a big problem, since the integration and inheritance of the Xuansheng, there is no secret in the real sense, and even the "Taiyin Thirteen Swords" have been circulated, not to mention that it is just the "Tangtai Fist Intent" of the Shangcheng method.
Taking a step back, even if Qi Xuansu didn't use the "Tangtai Fist Intent", but used a method that others had never used, others would still doubt him.
This is like what Taiping Dao did in Jinling Mansion, even if everyone knows it, as long as there is no real evidence, it will not be able to get on the scale. Since you can't get on the scale, there is no four or two.
In fact, logically speaking, Qi Xuansu shouldn't be in such a hurry, this time is a little too sensitive, but things in the world will not always go according to his mind, Yanxiu, a thief, will not stay in Wutong Garden all the time, if he misses this opportunity, it will be difficult to find Yanxiu's traces. After all, today's Qi Xuansu is not as good as in the past, he has responsibilities, he can't run around, and after this village, there may not be this shop.
Besides, Yanxiu is a Buddha after all, and it is almost inevitable that she will become a celestial person. Now Qi Xuansu still has a realm advantage over Shang Yanxiu, if he misses this opportunity, the next time they meet, maybe the two of them will be equal in realm. At that time, even if Qi Xuansu can beat Yan Xiu, he may not be able to kill Yan Xiu, you must know that Yan Xiu's life-saving ability is not inferior to Qi Xuansu, Xiao Qin Wang and Xie Qiuniang besieged and killed him, and let him escape, which can be seen.
Because of this, Qi Xuansu decided to take a risk after careful consideration.
The key is to do it cleanly.
Qi Xuansu shot like electricity, pulled out the flying knife inserted in Yanxiu's right eye, and continued to press down, making Yanxiu's neck more and more overwhelmed.
At the final moment of life and death, Yanxiu finally used the "Great Sun Body Destroying Method", and countless red lights bloomed up and down the whole person's body, like a round of red sun, and at the same time, his flesh and blood began to shrink sharply, and he had lost weight in a blink of an eye.
Yanxiu seemed to return to the light, and she actually resisted Qi Xuansu's downward pressure.
If the realm cultivation of the two is comparable, Qi Xuansu really wants to be reversed by the desperate Yanxiu, or the gap between the two is only a small realm, and Yanxiu also has the strength to fight.
It's a pity that the gap between the two is a big realm.
The so-called small realm gap, such as the jade void stage and the true stage, is the same as the innate person, but the quantity changes. From the stage of returning to the truth to the stage of leisure, it seems to be a realm gap, but it is the difference between innate people and heavenly beings, and it is already a qualitative change.
Neither Qi Xuansu nor Zhang Yuelu could achieve the feat of defeating the heavens and men with the cultivation of the true stage. Counting the history of Daomen, there are no more than ten people who can achieve such a feat, and most of them are in the troubled times of the initial period of Daomen, in addition to excellent qualifications, they are all experienced in a hundred battles.
As an aside, human nature is not suitable for fighting, but animal nature is more suitable. After being injured and suffering, people instinctively turn around and run away, and their minds are in turmoil, while beasts have a natural instinct to suppress pain. Therefore, after ordinary people are injured, they can easily enter the situation of being slaughtered by others, for example, Qi Xuansu encountered the "inn" assassin for the first time, and he couldn't even escape, and was finally stabbed to death. The same is true for Yanxiu, who was stabbed in the right eye by Qi Xuansu with a flying knife, and was unable to use the life-saving method because of the severe pain.
If you want to overcome this nature, you need a lot of actual combat experience to dig out the beast nature in the body, and the principle of the "magic knife" is based on this.
"Heavenly Knife" is the opposite, abandoning human nature, imitating divinity, and making precise calculations like chess, although it can't be crazy and the combat power is greatly increased, but it is more stable, when have you seen the chess pieces afraid and timid?
After stepping into the peaceful world from the troubled times, whether it is Zhang Yuelu or Yao Pei, the qualifications are enough, but they are far from being experienced in a hundred battles, and their experience in this area is even inferior to Qi Xuansu, let alone compared with the predecessors and ancestors who were born in the troubled times. Qi Xuansu, Xu Kou and others have barely enough experience, but their qualifications are too poor and they don't have that capital. Xu Kou confidently challenged Zhang Yuelu, but he didn't have the experience to compete at all, and was directly reduced by Zhang Yuelu to ten meetings.
For example, Zhang Yuelu and Yao Pei have capital but are not very good at business, Qi Xuansu and Xu Kou are good at business but have no capital, and their qualifications and experience are indispensable.
Because of this, Yanxiu can't use true cultivation to contend with heaven and man.
Although there were some twists and turns, Qi Xuansu's palm was still firmly pressed on Yanxiu's bald head.
Qi Xuansu continued to exert his strength steadily, slowly pressed down, and said in a low tone: "The husband is not guilty, but he is guilty." Since you are bent on death, I will fulfill you. ”
Yanxiu's face was distorted, her hands were folded, and she was reciting Buddhist mantras.
Qi Xuansu's sleeves were swaying endlessly, the strength of the martial arts and the true qi of the scattered people had been running to the extreme, and even the entire arm began to partially turn into gold, the flesh and blood of the skin became translucent, dyed with a layer of gold, the meridians and bones were clearly visible, and this alienation scene was still spreading, extending from the arm to the shoulder, and from the shoulder to the "Heart of the Immortal Stone" at the heart position.
But all these visions were obscured by the red light of Yanxiu.
After such a stalemate for a while, Yanxiu was already skinny and bone-in-cheek, and the "Great Sun Body Destroying Method" was unsustainable, and the red light around her body was closed. Almost at the same time, Qi Xuansu's golden body was also retracted, and there was still no golden vision.
Then there was a surging and powerful pouring down, Yanxiu couldn't bear it anymore, her eyes, ears, mouth and nose, but in all the holes, blood spurted out, and the bones clicked chaotically, and they were pressed into powder by the strength of the martial arts and the true qi of the scattered people.
In the blink of an eye, Yanxiu had turned into a puddle of mud, the flesh and blood were blurred, and she could no longer distinguish any scars, and even the autopsy was saved.
Qi Xuansu picked up the Sumeru object from the blood mud, and pretended to search for it for a while, and after finding nothing, he quickly turned around and left this place.
Qi Xuansu originally wanted to bring Yanxiu's body to Tianshou Mountain, and then throw the ghoul country cave to the sky, and come to a person who can't see anyone alive and can't see a corpse. It's just that Qi Xuansu considered that it was impossible for him to kill Yanxiu silently, and it would inevitably leave traces of fighting, if he couldn't disguise it as the illusion that Yanxiu took the initiative to leave, then this move would not make much sense, and carrying Yanxiu's corpse out of the city was still too risky, since Du Yuyan and others disappeared, Tianchen Division has strengthened the control and surveillance near Tianshou Mountain.
So after thinking about it again, Qi Xuansu still denied this idea, and instead killed Yanxiu as the identity of the Qingping Society, from beginning to end, he did not show the slightest flaw, even if there was a "phonograph", or a "Lingering Stone", he was not afraid.
Qi Xuansu went all the way out of Wutong Garden, took advantage of the night and returned to Nancheng, changed back into his original clothes, and took off the "white fox face" mask.
Afterwards, someone would inevitably come to ask him what he was doing in Nancheng, and Qi Xuansu also thought about it and was prepared.
The key is to have a witness of sufficient weight.
In fact, Zhang Yuelu is the best candidate, and the reason is also ready-made, Deputy Hall Master Zhang arrived in the imperial capital, and as a close friend, he led Deputy Hall Master Zhang around, Nancheng is the most prosperous place in the outer four cities, so it is natural to come, which is reasonable.
However, with Zhang Yuelu's temperament, she can turn a blind eye, but she will not take the initiative to participate.
For example, Sun Yongfeng secretly collected Taiping money, Zhang Yuelu knew it, and also said that she didn't like the normal feelings of such people, but she didn't break it, because when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no disciples, she doesn't want to be a clear stream, she doesn't want to be a moral person, she wants to change the door, she must have her own team, she must have her own henchmen, so she has to choose to be with the light. As for others scolding her or sarcasm, she doesn't care.
In fact, Zhang Yuelu learned some tricks from the heavenly master and the earth master.
In particular, the earth master even taught her some imperial mental skills, and used Emperor Sejong of the previous dynasty as an example.
Use greed to settle their loyalty, abandon greed to eliminate dissidents, kill greed to anger the people, and confiscate wealth for public use, this is the art of the emperors through the ages.
To put it bluntly, if you want to make others sell their lives, you have to give others benefits, so you can only give them power and let them use their power to make money. And the people below can have the right to make profits, isn't it all given from above? Therefore, it is where the power is, where the profit is, and you have to be loyal.
As long as you do things that are greedy for ink, it is equivalent to putting the handle on the hand above, if you dare to be disobedient, the above will be in the name of greedy ink, you can kill it, this is to suppress dissent.
When the people's grievances boil, let everyone in the world know that it is not the fault of the top, but the fault of the bottom. Then choose a scapegoat to kill to make the people angry.
So Emperor Sejong did not go to court for 20 years of cultivation, but he was still in power.
In this way, although the power is stable, the atmosphere is completely broken.
Now there is this trend in the Daomen.
Therefore, Zhang Yuelu is often entangled and helpless, if you don't use it, you can't do it, and if you use it, it will promote this kind of atmosphere, which is really a dilemma. She has the heart to clean up the atmosphere, but her status is not high enough, and she is stable enough, so she really doesn't have that confidence. There is a Great Wei Dynasty, and there is only a blue sky, and the rest of the princes are insignificant, so it is as unrealistic to ask for subordinates as clear as water, just like to ask for the world of Datong. Some people are indeed not greedy for money, but they are greedy for fame, they are not greedy for money or fame, and they have a violent temperament, or they are unable to see it, such as Xu Kou and Qi Xuansu, not to mention that there are also greedy for power, in short, there is no perfect person.
Even Zhang Yuelu himself is not perfect, and he can only continue to consider the measurements and control them within a relatively reasonable range. This is undoubtedly on the old path of Zhang Suqing, that is, not to be strict with morality, but to limit the examination, to blame people, and to make a merit.
Zhang Yuelu also has her own bottom line, that is, she will not participate in such things. She lived a poor life, and the only exception was to help Qi Xuansu deal with Yue Liuli.
So this move still violated Zhang Yuelu's intentions, Qi Xuansu didn't want her to be embarrassed, so he found another candidate.
