Chapter 53: Digging a Hole and Waiting for the Tiger

With the strength of Jiuyang Mountain, it is not a problem to sweep away a clear cloud view. Sun Sansi is just a cultivator of the Tiangang realm, and there are several demon clans on Jiuyang Mountain who have achieved the double realm of Tiangang and Earth, and it is not difficult to kill one Sun Sansi.

But rashly taking action to sweep away Qingyunguan will not only be useless, but will cause a catastrophe. In the eyes of others, this is the rampant demon clan, and they have done evil things against the Xianqing faction under the capital of the country, and the notoriety is backsliding. At that time, not only did the immortals in the world send everyone to kill Xu Qi and then quickly, but the demon clan would also draw a line with the "Jiuyang Demon Venerable" under the operation of the Seven Flame Mountain Kong Fang.

When the time comes, the enemy will be on the back of the abdomen, and the world will really lose the foothold of Jiuyang Mountain and the "Jiuyang Demon Venerable". If he is lucky, Xu Qi can still hide in Tibet to save his life, and if he is unlucky, he will explain it directly. If things come to this point, no matter whether his luck is good or bad, his idea of destroying the immortal path is to never talk about it again.

Sun Sansi must be eliminated, but how to get rid of it is a problem that needs to be carefully considered. Cultivation is one thing, but it is also necessary to give a justifiable reason to kill Sun Sansi.

After thinking secretly for a while, Xu Qi instructed the five demons: "You find a safe place to hide this Zhao Yan, don't let her escape, and you must not be found by the people in the Xianqing faction." After returning to the capital, the news spread that the six monks of the Xianqing faction wanted to slaughter the village, but they were saved by Xu Qingzhi, a disciple of the Confucian Emperor Mingshi. Five of them are dead, and one of them has escaped, Zhao Yan, whose whereabouts are unknown. ”

"After spreading the news, we will arrange some people outside the capital. Once the Xianqing faction sent out its men to track down Zhao Yan's whereabouts, they left the capital and found a secluded place to kill her. It's just that the methods of the Immortal Sect are difficult to imitate, and it is still a little difficult to make it because of Zhao Yan's hands......"

The rabbit demon Hua Bailu said at the right time: "The lord doesn't need to worry, his subordinates can use illusion to control Zhao Yan and let her make a move." ”

After thinking about it, Xu Qi nodded and said, "That's fine...... Remember, don't manipulate Zhao Yan to kill all the disciples of the Xianqing Sect who went out to investigate, and leave a few who go back to report the news...... Once Zhao Yan was manipulated, he would immediately hide her, and he would never let anyone in Qingyun Guan find her. ”

"Yes. Hua Bailu gave up his hand.

Xu Qi summoned the snake demon Qingfu Line and said: "Qingfu Line, you will spread your hands in the capital, inquire about the news, and see what the relationship between Sun Sansi and a person named Li Taizhe is." As soon as the news comes out, report it to this seat immediately. ”

"Yes. ”

"Jin Liucong, Hu Xiao, Huang Bangshan......"

Xu Qiyi called the names of the three demons of the monkey, tiger, and cow, and ordered: "The three of you are guarding the capital with your subordinates, once there is any summoning in this seat, the three of you must appear immediately, and there must be no mistake." ”

"Yes!" the three demons replied in unison.

Since others are already laying out, it is obviously a stupid thing to get caught in the game. If Xu Qi wants to break the situation, he must first make this situation chaotic.

The situation is chaotic, and Xu Qi can take advantage of it.

The Xianqing faction has a worshipper in the court and the opposition, and it is natural that the Confucian sect is fighting endlessly. Now that the people who have gone out of the sect want to slaughter the village, what kind of decision should Sun Sansi, the immortal sect worshipper and the master of the Qingyun Temple, do? Recognizing those people as monks of this sect must be a big trouble, and he will be grabbed by the pigtails by the Confucian sect and not let go. If you want to get rid of this matter, then the remaining Zhao Yan, who escaped, is the only unstable factor.

Once Zhao Yan is found by someone else, no matter what she says, it will be a huge blow to the Qingyun Temple of the Immortal Qing Sect's capital dojo.

In Xu Qi's opinion, Sun Sansi should be able to make a decision in the face of this situation.

After assigning all the things that the five demons should do, the rat demon on the side wore the ashes and held a burden, and came to Xu Qi: "Lord, this is the skeleton of the ghost king of Wangshan Village, please take a look." ”

opened the baggage and looked at it, and there were a lot of bones of the ghost king. Xu Qi had the intention to return the bones to the Ghost King, but after thinking about it, he also felt that it was inappropriate.

Although the ghost king is expected to help the mountain villages, and gathers the faith of the villagers, it is natural that his strength has skyrocketed. But if there were immortal sect monks with advanced cultivation to come, the ghost king still wouldn't have the slightest ability to resist. If the bones are in the ghost king's place, once the ghost king is in danger, his life will be completely lost. The bones are here in Xu Qi, even if the ghost king's ghost body is shattered, but there is no true spirit on the bones, and the ghost king is still expected to be reborn.

After pondering it in his heart, Xu Qi opened the Qiankun bag and put the ghost king's bones into it. The current situation is unstable, and it is safer for the ghost king's bones to be placed here.

Ordering the six demons to return to the capital first, Xu Qi returned to Wangshan Village again.

In front of the Ghost King Temple in Wangshan Village, the villagers had dispersed, leaving only Chu Zhou and Ghost King Zhao Ziming chatting.

Seeing Xu Qi coming, Chu Zhou arched his hand and said, "Brother Xu, it's really an eye-opener today...... There is a sentence that should not be asked, and I really want to ask it below. Brother Xu, who are you?"

The attitude of the five demons towards Xu Qi Chu Zhou was in his eyes, which made Xu Qi, whose identity was already very mysterious, even more mysterious. Although he knew that this question was very abrupt, Chu Zhou really couldn't hold back his curiosity.

"Don't be impatient, I will definitely give Brother Chu an explanation. ”

Xu Qi smiled and waved his hand, and said to the ghost king Zhao Ziming: "Your bones have been obtained, and if you put them here for the time being, it can be regarded as an extra guarantee for your life." You come and talk to this seat about what skills you can get after being sacrificed in the Zhongli Temple in Wangshan Village. ”

"Qi Qi Lord Zun," the ghost king didn't know what to call Xu Qi, seeing that the five demons all called Xu Qi the main honor, and they also did the same: "After the subordinates were in the neutral temple in Wangshan Village, they got the land and qi of Wangshan Village, and the land and water sources in Wangshan Village were all under my control." The subordinates can't do anything else, but it's still okay to let the wind and rain in Wangshan Village be smooth and harvest every year. ”

"It's just that the extent to which the subordinates can do it also depends on the beliefs of the villagers. The villagers have a lot of faith in their subordinates, and their subordinates can do ten things. The villagers have five points of faith in their subordinates, and the subordinates can only do five points of things. ”

Speaking of this, the ghost king Zhao Ziming unconsciously clenched his fists and said, "The villagers' belief in their subordinates seems to make their subordinates stronger. Two days ago, the villagers had a grudge against their subordinates, and if it weren't for the Ghost King Temple, their subordinates wouldn't be able to stay in this Wangshan Village. Now the villagers are more religious than before, and their subordinates seem to have become stronger, but they don't understand the reason. ”

Xu Qi nodded, this was not much different from what he expected. Although there is no Shinto in this world, Xu Qi has also heard in his previous life that the ghosts and gods worshiped have always been determined by the strength of the power of faith. Looking at it now, this is no different from what I heard in my previous life.

Xu Qidao: "There are other things to deal with in this seat, so I have to leave." It's good for you to protect the peace of a village here, and if there is anything you can't solve, communicate with this seat. In addition, tell the villagers in Wangshan Village not to spread the news of tonight's events yet, otherwise it will invite disaster. ”

Ghost King Zhao Ziming said: "Yes, the teachings of the Lord will never be forgotten by his subordinates." ”

Xu Qi nodded, and was about to leave with Chu Zhou, but a child flashed out on the side, and it was Xiaodouzi who took Xu Qi and Chu Zhou to Wangshan Village.

Xu Qi admired this kid a lot, and said with a smile: "Little Bean, do you have something?"

"I want to go with you, and I want to save people. Xiaodouzi stared at Xu Qi with both eyes, and his tone was very firm.

In terms of courage and courage, this little bean really has the qualifications to follow Xu Qi, and Xu Qi also has a good impression of this little bean. But after pondering left and right, Xu Qi shook his head and said: "Xiaodouzi, you are still a little younger now, and many battles are not something you can handle, so it's really not good to be by my side." ”

"I'm not afraid. Xiaodouzi said categorically, clenching his white teeth: "I am not afraid of danger, I just want other people to be like our village, not to be treated as ants, and not to beg others to get help...... You saved this village, and I want to be like you and save others!"

"Brother Xu, it's better to ......"

Xiaodouzi's words are straightforward and simple, but you can see his sincerity from them. Chu Zhou, who was on the side, heard Xiaodouzi say this, and was quite moved by the sincerity in Xiaodouzi's words, and wanted to say a few words for Xiaodouzi.

These words are also very much in line with Xu Qi's thoughts, but to bring such a child into a dangerous battle is really joking with the child's life.

After thinking about it, Xu Qi said to Xiaodouzi, who was staring at him, with a pleasant face: "Since you have this thought, then okay, I'll arrange an errand for you first." Although the ghost king can appear in the village, there is always a consumption every time he appears, which is not very cost-effective. You will first make a temple blessing in the Ghost King Temple, pass the word to the Ghost King on behalf of the villagers, and deal with the affairs of the village on behalf of the Ghost King. If you can do this job well, when the business is at hand, I will take you to save the others. ”

"You don't regret it?"

"No repentance. ”

Xiaodouzi wiped his little face that hadn't had time to be washed, and stretched out his dirty little hand to Xu Qi: "High-five as an oath?"

Xu Qi smiled and lightly struck on the little hand, and said, "High-five as an oath!"

The ghost king saw this situation in his eyes, arched his hand at Xiaodouzi, and said, "Mr. Miaozhu, in the future, you and I will serve the Lord together." ”

Xiaodouzi is also very popular, and he arched his hand at the ghost king who had no face and only a pair of bloody eyes, and said: "It's easy to say, I will have to take care of the ghost king in the future." ”

After deciding on this matter, Xu Qi and Chu Zhou did not stay longer, and left Wangshan Village at night.

Sitting on the fast horse, Xu Qi said to Chu Zhou, who was thoughtful on the side: "Brother Chu, how are you feeling when you become a cultivator today?"

"I have a lot of insights that I didn't have before, and I understand more things. ”

Chu Zhou sighed and said, "As Brother Xu said, the people are not stupid, but the words of the sage are not a good prescription for educating the people. In the matter of food and clothing, the words of the sage are indeed too light. I wanted to study for many years, trying to educate the people, but I didn't achieve anything, it turned out that I went the wrong way......"

After this day and night, seeing these things happening in front of him, Chu Zhou was both disappointed, excited, and had some doubts. He was excited because he had finally achieved what he had always wanted to do, but had not been able to do, and had found a concrete path, and he was disappointed because although it was related to Confucianism, it was far from the teachings of Confucianism.

What is puzzled is that who is the one who came up with such a method, who calls himself Xu Qi Xu Qingzhi?
