Chapter 326 What Does It Smell?
After a while, Zhao Sheng walked out of the Treasure Cave Mansion with a calm face, waved his sleeves, and a magic sword suddenly burst out from the bottom of his sleeve and flew into the air.
With a slight jump, Zhao Shengren had already landed on the magic sword, and with the infusion of spiritual power, the magic sword's brilliance skyrocketed, carrying him to the bottom of the mountain and quickly disappearing into the vast night.
A moment later, in a manor more than 20 miles away from Qingyang Mountain, a sword light suddenly fell from the sky and fell into the manor.
As soon as the sword light dispersed, Zhao Sheng waved his hand to withdraw the magic sword and walked towards a three-story wooden building.
Before he walked in the door, he saw a group of people Hula running out of it, and when they saw Zhao Sheng appearing, everyone was overjoyed and called them senior brothers.
Zhao Sheng was not surprised at all when he saw all the junior brothers and sisters gathered here. This manor was originally a daily gathering place for everyone, and now that such a big event has happened, they will naturally come here and wait for Zhao Sheng to appear and give a solution.
"Senior Brother Wu, Senior Brother Fang, Senior Sister Zhang... You can rest assured for the time being. If the black market is discovered, it's not a big deal, just find another place to rebuild. And Shizun has personally stepped forward to deal with this matter. As long as I don't wait for myself to mess up, Yuanyang can't make a big deal. Zhao Sheng was surrounded by everyone in the middle, and said very confidently.
"With the words of the senior brother, I will be relieved. hated that the Ren brothers were not righteous, and when they saw that things were not good, they turned around and took refuge in Yuan Shen's kid. ”
Zhao Sheng swept his eyes, and sure enough, he saw that there were a few active figures missing from the crowd.
He smiled and waved his hand: "Everyone has their own ambitions!" It's just that... The old man of the Ren brothers is in the position of the capital treasury, so people have a choice. The other wall grasses can't be let go, and they must be killed to make an example. Otherwise, people's hearts will be scattered, and our business will not be good. ”
"Senior Brother is right! Those two or five boys must be punished severely. Otherwise, cats and dogs will bully us. The brainy melon seed simply immediately released cruel words.
However, there are also sober-minded people, such as Wu Xingshen, who immediately questioned with worry: "But... Big brother! This move by the capital is tantamount to tearing our faces apart. He is so excited, can the temple worship lord really settle this matter easily? ”
While speaking, everyone hugged Zhao Sheng and walked into the building.
When Zhao Sheng heard this, he didn't answer immediately, but walked to the big chair in the center and sat down slowly.
He was majestic, his eyes were like lightning, and he looked up at everyone, and as far as his eyes could see, everyone bowed their heads to their ears.
"Huh! Each of you was carefully selected by me, and behind each of you is either a county or a county, plus I have the support of my master. The whole county is on our side, what are Yuan Yang and the others playing with us?
On this day in Hufeng County, no one can oppose it, I said it! Zhao Sheng's words, which were domineering and leaky, immediately dispelled everyone's uneasy hearts.
The solemn atmosphere in the building suddenly dissipated and became much easier!
"Haha, with your words, I'll have to go back to my old immortal friends. By the way, when are we going to rebuild the black market? ”
"Yes, yes, the black market must be set up as soon as possible, without it, there will be no spirit stones. Our cultivation speed has plummeted! I'm still short of a lot of blood beads. ”
"Essence blood beads are a fart! Without the Blood Refining Talisman and the Blood Melting Talisman, I will see how you can melt and refine the essence blood. Don't scare away Master Taiya just because the black market has been smashed. If that's the case, it's bad. Fang Xing patted his thigh and shouted loudly.
"Senior Brother Fang, don't be alarmist. Master Taiwu will never run away. ”
"Hehe, do you dare to guarantee that this won't happen? You must know that the master is not only a magic elixir, but also blood refining talismans, blood elixirs and other things that the Heavenly Dao Sect does not pass on. If the existence of such people is known by the high-level officials of the temple, it will inevitably cause an uproar. ”
"Huh! No matter how strict the rules and regulations of the Taoist temple are, someone must abide by them! Nowadays, people's hearts are not ancient, and the temple is like a broken sieve inside and out, full of holes. Who in this world will obey the laws and regulations? Master Taiwu may not be the vest of an adult! ”
"Shhh, it's good to know for yourself, why bother saying it."
Seeing that everyone was talking more and more, Zhao Sheng didn't stop it.
After all, they really guessed correctly, Master Taiwu was a vest that he took the initiative to push in front of people.
Thanks to the special environment of the black market, Zhao Sheng has made a lot of money as a master of Taiwu in recent years.
What he had just handed over to Bao Yan was only his net worth on the surface, and there were many elixirs, spiritual materials and other treasures that were close to the value of 100,000 spirit stones in secret.
However, this is also the upper limit of Hufeng County, and if you make more shots, the market will be saturated.
In order to maintain hunger marketing and mystery, Zhao Sheng also deliberately reduced the frequency and volume of transactions.
This was originally a long-term business, but who knew that there would be such a big change now.
Don't look at Zhao Sheng as domineering as he just said, but he is very optimistic about Bao Yan in his heart.
This cheap master is too greedy, as he always says, eating alone will not end well!
It is true that the black market is lucrative, but Zhao Sheng and other juniors only made three melons and two dates, and even the major families in the county only made three percent of the profits, and the big heads were swallowed by the treasure.
So as soon as Yuanyang came, the two old-timers of Duku and Ducha secretly took refuge in the past.
Bao Yan may never have reflected on himself.
No! He only cares if he can succeed in rebirth, and he doesn't care about what other people think.
Half an hour later, a group of people rushed out of the building, and then dispersed one after another.
After a gathering just now, Zhao Sheng temporarily stabilized people's hearts.
But where is the future heading? The decision is no longer in the hands of their juniors, but depends on the attitude of the temple towards this matter, whether Bao Yan can turn the tide, and even more importantly, whether the forces in Hufeng County will firmly support Bao Yan.
Early the next morning, at the foot of Qingyang Mountain, the car covers were crowded and crowded.
Today is obviously not the day of the big opening of the mountain gate, but one after another big people appeared, all for the mountain to worship God, and the reasons are also strange.
Zhike Taoist people had already received the hint, so they did not panic at all, and they all welcomed them into the quiet room and sent spiritual tea.
Zhao Sheng quickly learned the news, but as if he hadn't heard it, he didn't give any orders, and went to the Earth Soul Altar by himself to start his daily penance.
These people have their own treasures to deal with, and there is no need for him to show up.
The sun is rising in the middle of the sky, and the sun is scorching. The people of the major families in the county also had their own thoughts, and they left one after another
In the afternoon of the same day, Bao Yan secretly summoned the hall master, the Hua master, the courtyard master, the head of the house, the head of the field and other confidants, on the one hand, to appease the people's hearts, and on the other hand, he also secretly made many arrangements to deal with the upcoming review from above.
That night, Bao Yan secretly went down Qingyang Mountain and went straight to Lingchuan Temple.
Lingchuan Temple is the temple of Cangnan Mansion.
In the main hall on the top of Qingyang Mountain, Zhao Sheng stood on the lion's head in the corner of the building, staring at the treasure in the distance, his eyes were deep.
In an instant, his whole being turned into nothingness and disappeared from the lion's head.
In the secret cave of the back mountain, the air trembled slightly, and Zhao Sheng walked out of the darkness in an instant.
The cave was empty and lifeless, and the fences and cells had been destroyed.
Seeing this, a sneer appeared at the corner of Zhao Sheng's mouth, and his body shook, and he moved out of this place in an instant.
……
Two days later, the hearts of the Requiem Temple were fluctuating, and the treasure did not return, but a bad news had been transmitted first.
On the way to transport prisoners, the capital court was suddenly attacked, and most of the arrested people died on the spot, but the sneak attackers escaped unharmed.
Most of the people who heard the news had the first thought in their hearts that the temple treasure had made a move, and the purpose was to kill people and kill them.
However, Zhao Sheng couldn't help but sigh secretly: Bao is over!
Yuanyang... Or the mastermind behind all this is really brilliant.
This method of framing and killing many birds with one stone made Zhao Sheng also applauded.
Bao Yan obviously didn't do anything, but the basin that killed people had to be detained on his head.
What's even more ingenious is that the dead people are all in charge of the major families in Hufeng County.
As the saying goes, there is no proof of death!
This hand directly put the major families in a delicate situation.
If you take the initiative to surrender to Chengcheng, the Yuanyang side will accept it generously "regardless of previous suspicions".
If it is stubborn, just a motive of "killing people and destroying mouths" can easily bring the family to death.
Bao Yan lost his position first, and Yuan Yang clearly had a big backer.
Therefore, after this bad news spread, the situation in Hufeng County suddenly became out of control, and the attitudes of the major families suddenly became ambiguous.
At the same time, the direction of the wind in the temple also changed rapidly, and the junior brothers and sisters around Zhao Sheng ran a third of the hula, and all ran to Yuan Shen's side.
And most of the five masters and thirteen heads also changed their positions, faintly drawing a line with Bao Yan.
In this regard, Zou Qi, Fang Xing and other Zhao Sheng's hardcore younger brothers were very angry, and they all shouted to beat up those "traitors".
However, Zhao Sheng saw it, so he came forward to persuade them not to be impulsive.
As the saying goes, when disaster comes, fly separately! Everyone gathers for fame and fortune, and naturally they will go with fame and fortune.
That is, the situation is not yet completely clear, and Bao Yan still has a fighting force.
Otherwise, Zhao Sheng's hardcore little brothers would also take refuge in the past.
Time passed day by day, the hearts of the people in the temple became more and more fluctuating, and the little brother around Zhao Sheng also decreased day by day. During this period, although Bao Yi sent back many transmission notes, the talisman was full of good news.
However, as long as he didn't return to the mountain gate for a day, people's hearts could never be settled.
It wasn't until half a month later that Bao Yan staged a scene of the return of the king, which suddenly reversed the direction of the hearts of the people in the Requiem Temple.
But within a day, nearly 100 black-clothed patrol guards brazenly broke into the Requiem Temple, led by a deputy master of the Temple Inspection Institute and two foundation building guest secretaries.
Coming back with a group, there was also an old man with white hair and kind eyes.
This person is none other than Yuan Yang. Don't look at him as kind-eyed, but he is really black-handed.
The deputy head of the court came here to picket illegal transactions in the black market. But as soon as he entered the temple, the black-clothed guards unceremoniously blocked the warehouse, the account room, the demon suppression hall and other important places.
Bao Yan was soon recruited by the deputy courtyard master to speak, and Yuan Yang was extremely active, his residence was full of people for a while, and everyone in the temple was busy visiting.
Zhao Sheng's side immediately became deserted, and there was almost no one.
However, he had expected this day, so it was not unusual, so he just kept his door closed.
The day flies by, and the night falls. The Requiem Temple quickly fell silent, and the atmosphere became oppressive and heavy, completely devoid of its former vitality.
At night, Bao called Zhao Sheng over.
In a secret room, when Zhao Sheng saw his master again, he found that Bao Yan had a cold expression and was sitting on the stone couch with an unusually gloomy expression.
As soon as he saw the apprentice coming, Bao Yan said coldly: "Sanbao, how have you been treated as a teacher all these years?"
Source change app】
Zhao Sheng's heart sank when he heard this, and he immediately replied with a respectful face: "The master treats me like a mountain, and it is difficult to repay it in vain!"
Bao Yan was very satisfied with his answer, so he asked, "If I want to leave, will you follow me?"
"Where the master goes, the apprentice will naturally follow." Zhao Sheng blurted out.
But as soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Sheng "couldn't help it" and asked urgently: "Master, the matter is really irreparable?!" Fumiao is not afraid of breaking the 'rules'? They... Do they have to kill them all? ”
The so-called "rules" in Zhao Sheng's words are actually some unspoken rules that cannot be put on the table: in the Taoist temple system, for the loser of the power struggle, as long as you admit defeat and choose to take the initiative to retire and retired, political enemies will often not be wiped out, unless you have the potential to be promoted to a higher realm.
"Hmph, I want to take the initiative to abdicate and make way for the teacher, but people don't give Lao Tzu a way to live! For today's plan, only go is the best policy. ”
Bao Yan's words are half-truths and half-truths. Zhao Sheng didn't even believe a word.
Run? Let's say it lightly!
Is your Taoist jade book of Taoism fake?
This thing is like a soul lamp in the sect, once naturalized, it means that it has left a divine soul mark.
Even if you run to the ends of the earth, you will be found by the team of traitors in the sect with secret methods, and there is no way to escape the pursuit.
Bao Yan thought that his apprentice was too young and ignorant to know such secrets. But he didn't know that there was a living ancestor standing on the other side.
Zhao Sheng's mind turned, but he said: "Master, there are a group of black dogs guarding the temple now, I'm afraid it will be difficult to escape quietly."
Bao Yi smiled confidently, and pressed his right hand on the stone couch seven or eight times in a row
Brush!
I saw that the wall behind the stone couch suddenly moved horizontally to the right, revealing a dark passage.
"Come with me!" Bao Yan beckoned to Zhao Sheng, then turned around and burrowed into the passage.
Zhao Sheng's eyes flickered a few times, and then quietly followed.
As soon as the two of them disappeared, the stone wall quietly returned to normal, and the secret room was empty.
There is a strange rocky mountain more than ten miles away from Qingyang Mountain, where the grass is overgrown and the people are inaccessible.
In the dead of night, crickets buzzed.
Under a three-person-high bluestone in the Troubled Stone Mountain, it suddenly sunk silently, and Bao Yan and Zhao Sheng drilled out of the ground one after another.
Alas~!
Bao Yan looked back at Qingyang Mountain in the distance, lowered his head and sighed, and shouted casually: "Let's go!"
But at this moment, I heard: "Wait! Do you smell it? ”
"Smell something?"
Bao Yan subconsciously asked back, and at the same time, his nose really smelled a bitter smell.
