Chapter 44: Wangshan Village
Walking out of the Winding Tower, Xu Qi looked back at the Winding Tower, and smiled at Chu Zhou beside him: "Brother Chu, you left the Winding Beam Building today, but you offended all the scholars in the Winding Tower." Brother Chu has really thought about it?"
Chu Zhou arched his hand to Xu Qi, shook his head and said, "Brother Xu, don't make fun of it...... After studying in the downstream for several years, he saw that the immortal Taoism was flourishing, and Confucianism gradually fell into decline without a solution. Listening to Brother Xu's words today, the puzzle that usually puzzled me was finally solved. It turned out that the reason why Zai Xia could not educate the people with Confucianism and Taoism before was because he was only a reasonable and talented person, and the people were naturally unconvinced. ”
"I understand the truth today, the people in the Lianglou are ......" Chu Zhou looked back at the Lianglou, shook his head and said: "The ambition in the lower chest is different from these people, and if you offend, you will be offended." Brother Xu's truth of 'cultivating the farmer' is really deafening, and I want to ask for more advice. ”
Xu Qi nodded and said, "The truth in this will be discussed later." Now that the lives of the people in that village are in danger, it is better to solve the current matter first. ”
When he asked the question of "Immortal Dao Daxing" from Chu Jiang to Tian Zongyun, Xu Qi knew that this person was very likely to accept his own concept. The fact that he was able to ask this question shows that he does not want to see the "Immortal Dao Daxing" in his heart, but he has no clue and can rebuild the faith of Confucianism among the people.
The words on the upper floor around the beam were just to wake up Chu Zhou.
The truth in that remark can be summed up in just six words: "abandon empty talk and emphasize pragmatism". Scholars inevitably have some problems with empty talk, and Xu Qiyuan didn't expect Chu Jiangliu to understand so quickly, and even more decisively, and chose to stand on his side.
It can be seen that Chu Zhou has indeed done a lot of things to revive the Confucian faith among the people, and has also suffered a lot of setbacks. Otherwise, Xu Qi's words would not have made him react so strongly.
The two discussed for a while, then went to the horse shop in the capital and rented three fast horses. Although Xu Qi has the ability to fly, the blood mist can't take others away. Although Chu Zhou is a Confucian and righteous and has the cultivation of the peak realm, he does not have a serious master to guide him, and he will not be able to escape the technique.
It's not noon at the moment, and it's a hundred miles away, and there are fast horses to do the foot strength, and I'm not afraid of delaying things.
The fast horse has good foot strength, and in less than two hours, it arrived outside Wangshan Village. This is because the road is difficult to travel along the way, otherwise an hour will come.
According to the child named Xiaodouzi, the ghost king trapped the entire village, and Xu Qi did not dare to be careless, so he dismounted in the forest outside Wangshan Village.
Look at the sun, it's just past noon.
Taking advantage of the high slope in the forest, he looked at the quiet village outside the distance, Xu Qi frowned and pondered.
There was no movement in the village, and I thought that the ghost king had really controlled the entire village. Although Xu Qi has never caught a ghost, but with a thunder fire and a long knife in his hand, Xu Qi doesn't care about ordinary ghosts.
It's just that this ghost king who can control an entire village, what kind of cultivation is it, Xu Qi really has no bottom in his heart. Rashly entering a village that has been controlled by the Ghost King is equivalent to entering the Ghost King's home field, and even if the cultivation is equal, it is a troublesome matter.
Seeing Xu Qi frowning and pondering, Chu Zhou asked, "What is Brother Xu thinking?"
"I'm wondering what kind of cultivation this ghost king is, and he can control this entire village. ”
Pointing to the village in the distance, Xu Qi said: "This village is not in the shade at the foot of the mountain, and there are living people in the village, and the yang energy is vigorous. Ghosts are most afraid of vigorous yang energy, what kind of ...... should this ghost king have if he can enclose this village?"
While speaking, Xu Qi's head flashed with inspiration, and he suddenly understood. He smiled, didn't continue to speak, and asked Xiaodouzi instead: "Xiaodouzi, think about it, when your village didn't build a temple for this ghost king, did this ghost king appear during the day?"
"This ......"
Xiaodouzi blinked and thought for a while, shook his head and said, "There shouldn't be...... When the ghost king killed the bandits in the surrounding mountains, he did it at night, but he had never seen it during the day. The reason why our village knew that this was the work of the ghost king was also because the body of a bandit was sent to the entrance of the village at night, and it was written 'the ghost king eliminated harm', and then we knew that it was the ghost king who secretly helped. ”
Xu Qi nodded and asked, "Then after this temple was built, did the ghost king appear during the day?"
"Only once, when he said he wanted a baby to worship, did the ghost king appear in broad daylight. ”
Xiao Douzi had a look of horror on his face, as if he recalled the appearance of the ghost king: "That ghost king is wearing a black gas in armor, and he can't see his face clearly, but ...... But the two pairs of eyes on the top of the black mist were bloodshot, which was terrifying. ”
"Sure enough!"
Xu Qi clapped his hands and smiled, and said to Chu Zhou on the side: "Brother Chu, I have found a way to get rid of this ghost king...... It's just the right time, you and I can enter the village!"
"What should I do when I enter the village?"
Xu Qi looked at the sun hanging in the sky and said with a smile: "After entering the village, I will drag the ghost king, Brother Chu, you go to find the temple of the ghost king and destroy the temple." This ghost king didn't dare to walk in the daytime before, but after being sacrificed by the temple, he was so rampant that he dared to appear during the day, it must be that the temple gave the ghost king some gains. ”
"Destroy that temple, destroy the foundation that will improve his strength and control the whole village, and then force this ghost king and you and me to fight to the death under the sun. The Sun True Fire is so vigorous, even if this Ghost King has a Jin Dan cultivation, he will be suppressed by the Sun True Fire. With the strength of you and me, it shouldn't be difficult to get rid of this ghost king. ”
Chu Zhou frowned and thought about it, shook his head slightly, and said: "What Brother Xu said is indeed reasonable, based on the current situation, the temple built by the villagers for the ghost king is where the ghost king's life is located...... But Brother Xu, it's too dangerous to drag the ghost king, so let's leave it to the next to do it. Brother Xu's strength...... Forgive me for being clumsy, and I didn't see a trace of righteousness in Brother Xu. ”
Xu Qi touched his nose, sooner or later he was going to be seen that he didn't have a righteous spirit, and he was already mentally prepared.
Facing Chu Zhou, Xu Qi did not hide it, and said: "Don't hide it, although I have a master who has achieved the great respect of Confucianism, I am not a Confucian person, I have never practiced Confucianism, but I am not a person from the Immortal School. If Brother Chu wants to know where I am going to learn, after this is over, I will naturally give Brother Chu an explanation. If Brother Chu thinks that I am not a fellow believer, just leave, Xu Qi will never say anything. ”
Chu Zhou shook his head and said: "What Brother Xu said has never been heard from a Confucian in Xia, and Brother Xu is not a Confucian in Xia, so he can guess it in Xia." As for whether they are like-minded...... If Brother Xu's 'farmer who cultivates the land' is what he really thinks in his heart, then he is Brother Xu's fellow practitioners. ”
It has never been so simple to subdue people's hearts, Xu Qi understands this truth, and he doesn't expect Chu Zhou to follow him because of his words: "This matter is over, and I will definitely give Brother Chu a clear explanation in the future." When the time comes, whether you want to go or stay depends on Brother Chu himself. ”
After asking Xiaodouzi about the terrain in the village and knowing where the Ghost King Temple was located, Xu Qi and Chu Zhou planned for a while and set a strategy: Xu Qi entered the village from the entrance of the village and lured the Ghost King out, while Chu Zhou went around the village from the back of the village and destroyed the Ghost King Temple.
made a plan and ordered Xiaodouzi to stay in the woods, Xu Qi and Chu Zhou parted ways and went to Wangshan Village in two ways.
Because he wanted to contain the ghost king, Xu Qi had no intention of quietly entering the village. After walking out of the woods, Xu Qi took out the long knife on his waist, wrapped in blood mist, and rushed towards Wangshan Village with a blood light.
Chu Zhou looked at Xu Qi's methods, and said secretly in his heart: "Brother Xu's methods are full of murderous aura, and some of them are like methods in the evil way...... But looking at Brother Xu, he doesn't look like a person in the evil way. Where can a person in the evil way have such an argument as Brother Xu, and how can he have such a courage as Brother Xu? But this method is ...... This Brother Xu is really an interesting person. ”
His own means fell in Chu Zhou's eyes, and Xu Qi could probably guess what Chu Zhou would think. He didn't have any taboos, and he wasn't afraid that Chu Zhou would be prejudiced against him because of this. What he had to do was even more shocking than this method, if he couldn't even accept this method that was somewhat similar to that of the evil path cultivator, Chu Zhou was afraid that he wouldn't be able to accept Xu Qi's plan.
The blood mist flew extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, Xu Qi flew over Wangshan Village.
"Where is the demon cultivator, dare to be rampant here!"
Xu Qi was worried about how to lure out the ghost king, but he heard a loud shout in mid-air, and a black smoke rose from the village.
The black smoke took a turn and turned into the image of an armored general. A cloud of black smoke turned into a human form, clad in armor, holding a silver spear, and a pair of bloody eyes staring at Xu Qi tightly.
Knowing that he had bumped into the main master, Xu Qi said: "You ghost, dare to shout at this seat?"
The armored ghost king shouted: "I am looking at the mountain village to be offered to the ghost king, to ensure the peace of this village! You demon cultivator, leave quickly, otherwise you will blame the king for being ruthless under the gun!"
Xu Qi sneered: "To keep this village peaceful, but do you want babies as offerings? Haha! Ridiculous!"
The Armored Ghost King was speechless for a moment, his eyes glistening with blood, as if he wanted to say something to argue.
"Don't gossip, let's take your life!"
Without waiting for the armored ghost king to quibble, Xu Qiyi waved the long knife in his hand and rushed towards the armored ghost king.
The thunder and fire in his body surged, the giant spirit god general and the sword talisman were launched together, and the purple fire mixed thunder sword light gushed out, protecting Xu Qi's body.
As soon as he made a move, Xu Qi used all his capital!
This ghost king can appear in the daytime, and his strength is already quite strong. Xu Qi had to entangle him firmly and not be separated, so as to create an opportunity for Chu Zhou to destroy the Ghost King Temple.
In the blood mist, Xu Qi came extremely fast. The armored ghost king saw Xu Qi attacking with a killing move, so he had to meet him with a gun!
Under the collision of the long knife and silver spear, the ghost king only felt a huge force coming, and the silver spear in his hand was almost shaken off his hand.
Without waiting for the ghost king to recover his strength, Xu Qizhou's body was ready to launch the sword light and sword light together, and all of them were slashed on the ghost king!
The thunder and fire were violent, and after forming the Purple Fire Mixed Thunder Knife and the Qing ** Sword Light, the power of the thunder and fire became stronger by several grades.
The sword light slashes, and the sword light stabs.
In a flash, the armored ghost king had been pierced into a sieve by the thunder fire that Xu Qi had hit, and the black mist was full of potholes and transparent holes.
