in the room.

Song Zhishu sat cross-legged, his eyes closed, and he sank down.

At this moment, he found that there were more than a hundred Confucian righteous qi surging in his body.

This was not available in the first place.

"Can I also gain Confucian righteousness by lecturing?" Song Zhishu thought about it, he didn't do anything during this time, and there was only one explanation for the extra Confucian righteousness in his body, that is, it was born after lecturing.

Because if you think about it carefully, lecturing can be regarded as a kind of Confucian practice, and it is reasonable to obtain Confucian righteousness.

But now there are a full hundred more directly, which is a bit beyond my expectations.

If you can obtain Confucian righteousness as long as you teach, wouldn't it mean that it will be easier to accumulate Haoran righteousness in the future, after all, there are ten ways at a time.

However, after careful thinking, Song Zhishu believes that this is not the case, and that lecturing can indeed obtain Confucian righteousness, but the problem is that it is not always like this, the key is whether anyone is enlightened and enlightened in the process of lecturing.

According to Chen Jingyun's words before, he told the way of a gentleman this time, which made at least hundreds of people feel and start enlightenment.

If only under normal circumstances, then there is not a lot of Confucian righteousness obtained.

But anyway.

The harvest this time was indeed beyond Song Zhishu's expectations.

Not only is there 100,000 spirit stones as a reward, but more importantly, there is also Confucian righteousness.

Of course, Song Zhishu doesn't plan to do it again, because the lecture is not so simple, it is necessary to prepare, delay time, once is enough, and then enter Qingzhou to close the city, there are demons outside, and there are dangers.

The most important thing now is to improve our strength to deal with the coming crisis.

Another point is that he has already promised Chen Jingyun, maybe he will have to face the demon in a short time, how can he have the heart to lecture?

At this point, Song Zhishu spit out a breath of turbidity, and then condensed all the Confucian righteousness in his body into Haoran righteousness through the portrait of Mencius, so that in his body, there were already more than forty Haoran righteousness.

"To open the second and third jade box of the Immortal Pagoda, it takes five hundred Haoran righteousness, and now the difference is still too far."

Looking at the Haoran righteousness accumulated in his body, Song Zhishu couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

The further you go, the more demanding the conditions for opening the jade box become.

More importantly, there are not many ways for him to obtain Haoran righteousness now, unless he punishes demons, but now that the city is closed, he has no such opportunity, so he only has one choice for the time being, and that is to wait for Chen Jingyun's news.

If you can encounter a demon and kill it, you will definitely gain more Confucian righteousness than ordinary demon beasts.

But in this way, it is necessary to face a new problem, that is, we must have sufficient strength and means.

"I have a low-grade spirit weapon saint sword fetus, a late-stage cultivation of the foundation, and a primordial god comparable to the Yudan realm, and the weaker part should be the physique, as well as the lack of a strong enough offensive magic weapon, but if you want to make up for it, it's not difficult."

Song Zhishu began to analyze his own strength, and the cultivation and sage sword fetus could not be improved for the time being, and the resources needed were too great.

The Yuan Shen has been growing steadily recently, because his Confucian knowledge and practice realm cultivation is also improving, and he may be able to complete it after a period of time.

Therefore, these aspects are just worries, not shortcomings.

It's an offensive magic weapon, although the saint sword fetus is good, but it's still not enough, and then there is the physique, which is only in the early stage of foundation building.

After understanding his own shortcomings, Song Zhishu did not hesitate too much, and took out the Heavenly Thunder Bottle from the storage bag, although it is only a superb magic weapon, but it can perfectly solve the current problem, the only thing that needs to be done is to improve the quality.

In this way, the Heavenly Thunder released by the Heavenly Thunder Bottle will be stronger, and at the same time, it will be able to refine its physical body for itself.

He had already thought it through, anyway, he was still a lot away from opening the third jade box, and now there was a distance from the late stage of foundation building, and he needed at least three thousand Spirit Yuan Pills, so it was better to use Haoran Righteous Qi to improve the quality of the Heavenly Thunder Bottle and reach the level of a low-grade spiritual weapon.

As long as your strength continues, will there be fewer opportunities to gain righteousness in the future?

Therefore, after Song Zhishu made up his mind, he put the Tianlei Bottle on his chest.

The righteous qi in his body surged, slowly enveloping it.

The way to promote the Heavenly Thunder Bottle is relatively simple, and it does not need iron ore materials, just Haoran righteousness.

Previously, Song Zhishu used sixty Dao Haoran Righteousness to elevate the Saint Flying Sword to a low-grade spiritual weapon, and the Heavenly Thunder Bottle may not need so much, but according to estimates, it will take at least twenty or thirty Dao, so he first injected ten Dao.

Boom.

At this moment, the Heavenly Thunder Bottle emitted bursts of thunder.

The whole bottle was full of light, which looked dazzling, and it was a small lightning bolt.

This is in the process of ascension, and the aura of the Heavenly Thunder Bottle is getting stronger and stronger, but it is obviously not enough to be fully promoted to a low-grade spirit weapon.

Seeing this, Song Zhishu immediately did not hesitate, and directly injected twenty Haoran righteousness into it.

Thundered.

It was at this moment that the thunder emitted by the Heavenly Thunder Bottle became stronger and stronger.

Purple thunder and lightning, like snakes, are constantly swimming.

This is already beginning to metamorphose.

After using thirty Dao Haoran Righteous Qi, it is half less than the saint sword fetus, and it is still acceptable.

Song Zhishu also breathed a sigh of relief, he was afraid that he would have to use all the Haoran righteousness, and he could still leave some of it now.

At this time, he also stopped injecting and turned to mana, enveloping all those thunderbolts and preventing them from scattering.

Once you've done that, all you have to do is wait.

Soon, over time.

The color of the Heavenly Thunder Bottle has changed, dyed with a layer of faint purple, the luster is translucent, and the aura emanating from it is even more powerful, and the wandering thunder and lightning have finally turned purple, as if it contains extremely strong power.

Finally, at a certain moment, with the ups and downs of the Heavenly Thunder Bottle, all the light converged.

The promotion is completed, and the best magic weapon becomes the lower grade spiritual weapon Heavenly Thunder Bottle.

Song Zhishu immediately held it in his hand, the touch was slightly cool, and it seemed inconspicuous, but he could clearly find the power conceived in it.

After a moment's thought, he didn't hesitate to inject mana into it.

Zizizizi.

It's just that in the next moment, a purple thunder burst out from the mouth of the Heavenly Thunder Bottle, several feet long, like a thunder dragon, it roared, fortunately, Song Zhishu was quick and controlled the thunder dragon, otherwise this room would be destroyed.

And he hasn't injected much mana yet, not even a tenth.

"I don't know what the power is."

Song Zhishu was a little surprised and wanted to try the power, so he used the Heavenly Thunder Bottle again.

The thunder dragon flew out of the bottle, and rushed directly towards Song Zhishu under the control, bursting out with a piercing sound.

Bang.

The purple thunder dragon swam across Song Zhishu's body, causing white smoke to come out of his body, and even his muscles couldn't help but tremble.

"That's pretty powerful." Song Zhishu felt the pain in his body, couldn't help but bared his teeth, and his face turned a little pale, this was still in the case of his own preparation, and he was not serious, but what he valued more was that when the thunder dragon entered the body, under the intentional control, the power of thunder remained in the flesh and blood, making it begin to strengthen.

If the Heavenly Thunder Bottle could only be used for attacking, Song Zhishu would not improve the quality with Haoran righteousness at all, what he valued was that it could temper his physique.

After a careful understanding, he estimated that the current Heavenly Thunder Bottle was indeed better used to refine the physical body than before.

So Song Zhishu was completely adapted to the power of thunder in it.

Without much thought, I chose to continue.

Once your physique is improved again, your strength will increase accordingly.

In this way, Song Zhishu is ready to do two things next, one is to refine the physical body, and the other is to engrave the treasure jade, so as to prepare for facing the demons next.

And in his cultivation, time also passed bit by bit.

Qingzhou City is still under martial law, but because the demon plague is under control, many monks have relaxed.

The tasks released by Wanshi Pavilion have also begun to be taken by people one after another, but most of them are children of the family clan, because they are confident in their own strength, plus they are well paid, which can be regarded as a kind of experience.

However, in addition to Qingzhou City, there are other places where demon incidents have occurred one after another, but they are not serious.

It is precisely because of this that most of the eyes of the eastern border of Zhongzhou are focused on Qingzhou.

After all, the Heaven Sealing Demon Array has been discovered here, and it cannot be ignored.

The Lord's Mansion, inside the lobby.

Several powerful auras sat opposite each other, a total of five people.

They are Wang Ping'an, the elder of the Taihao Sword Sect, Master Fu, the commander of the Jinyi Tianwei, the pavilion master of Qingzhou Wanshi Pavilion, the city lord Qiu Qianhe, and the dean of Qingzhou Academy, Cheng Hong, these people are the five people with the highest strength and status in Qingzhou City today.

All five of them looked solemn, but the atmosphere was not as tense as the first time, and it seemed much calmer.

"Recently, relying on the efforts of my Taihao Sword Sect, and your best efforts, most of the Heaven Sealing Demon Array Formation Stones have been destroyed, and this array is no longer threatening, but no matter what, we still don't take it lightly, so Changge Daozi issued an order a few days ago, asking my Taihao Sword Sect's elder disciples who came here to block all important locations in the Qingyun Mountain Range to prevent accidents."

"In addition, Shushan, Qingcheng and other immortal sects will also have disciples to come to help, so the burden on us will be much lighter next."

Wang Ping'an spoke first, he was an elder of the Taihao Sword Sect, and he was also the main person in the investigation of the Qingzhou incident.

"With Changge Daozi's attention, I believe that the demons in Qingzhou will definitely be able to deal with it."

City Lord Qiu Qianhe smiled, with a hint of respect in his words.

Since the appearance of demons in Qingzhou and the discovery of the Fengtian Demon Array, the major forces in the entire Central Continent have been very concerned, and even the two major sword factions of Shushan and Qingcheng are in action, for no other reason, the appearance of demons is nothing, the most important thing is the Fengtian Demon Array.

The Heaven Sealing Demon Array was an incomparably ancient terrifying formation, and during the Battle of the Boundary Sea, countless monks fell into it.

Although the scale of the magic array found in Qingzhou is not large, no one will take it lightly and attach great importance to it.

Subsequently, after discussion among the major forces, it was determined that to deal with this demon array and demon incident, there must be a leader, a unified plan, and a unified deployment, and the Taihao Sword Sect, which is closest to Qingzhou, is naturally the most suitable.

The Taihao Sword Sect naturally would not refuse, and finally handed over the matter to the chief senior brother Mu Changge.

Now that Qingzhou is locked down, Wanshige has issued tasks to increase remuneration, and this series of plans is also from Mu Changge's handwriting.

Of course, only a few people present know about these things, and the low-level monks are not qualified to know so much, they just need to follow the arrangements from above.

Qiu Qianhe, the city lord of Qingzhou, naturally wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to the Taihao Sword Sect, if he could be appreciated, he would have a lot of benefits in the future.

"Lord Qiu Cheng is serious, this is all due to your good cooperation, my Taihao Sword Sect doesn't dare to do this alone."

Wang Ping'an smiled, bowed his hand slightly, and showed great modesty.

"What Elder Wang said is good."

At this time, Lord Jinyi Tianwei Fu spoke: "It is not only the Taihao Sword Sect that destroys the Heaven Sealing Demon Array and blocks the Qingyun Mountain Range, but also my Great Zhou Dynasty, as well as the contribution of Daoists of major forces. ”

His voice was flat, without any emotional ups and downs, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that this sentence was aimed at the Taihao Sword Sect.

couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Qiu Qianhe as the Pavilion Master of Wanshi Pavilion and Cheng Hong, the Dean of Qingzhou Academy.

I saw that Qiu Qianhe was silent at this moment, and a drop of cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

As for Wang Ping'an, he drank tea quietly and didn't seem to hear it.

The Great Zhou Dynasty is the co-lord of the world, and the current Great Zhou Dynasty is even more ambitious, it stands to reason that all places in Central Continent nominally belong to the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the major power city lords must obey the orders of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

But now the city lord of Qingzhou, who is regarded as a courtier of the Great Zhou, is headed by the Taihao Sword Sect and listens to the orders of the Taihao Sword Sect.

And Master Fu, who is the commander of the Jinyi Tianwei, is naturally dissatisfied with this, and has to say a few words.

In fact, it is not the first time that there has been an open and secret battle between Taihao Sword Sect and Great Zhou.

Just like the leader in dealing with the Qingzhou demon incident this time, the Great Zhou Imperial Court also intended to send the children of the royal family to come, but he was cut off by Mu Changge, which can imagine the anger in the heart of this Lord Fu.

However, it was about demons, and the Great Zhou court didn't say anything, and in the end, it was over.

"Master Fu and Jinyi Tianwei have really worked hard these days, and I, Wanshi Pavilion, are also seeing it."

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense, the master of the Wanshi Pavilion snorted, and turned his head to look at Cheng Hong: "Mr. Cheng, the old man heard that a few days ago, Qingzhou Academy invited a gentleman to give a lecture, and it is said that there were 3,000 monks who listened to the lecture that day, and hundreds of them were enlightened and stepped into the door of Confucianism. ”

He changed the topic, just because he didn't want the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Taihao Sword Sect to face each other, otherwise everyone present would be affected.

And Wanshi Pavilion's business is all over the human cultivation world, and the face is naturally big, and everyone has to give three points.

Therefore, after the Lord of the Ten Thousand World Pavilion spoke, the atmosphere was indeed much better.

Cheng Hong also knew what the other party meant, and then nodded: "Yes, the effect of this lecture also exceeded the old man's expectations, so when he is free, the old man is also ready to personally come to thank Mr. Song." ”

After finishing speaking, Cheng Hong glanced at Wang Ping'an not far away without leaving a trace, but only swept it lightly.

"I've also heard about this, that Mr. Song is a real talent."

Master Fu also spoke, and continued with a little curiosity in his words: "Mr. Cheng, you also know, the imperial court has always taken a fancy to talents, and although I, Fu Yuan, am a rough person, I also admire those talented people in my heart, if you can, before Mr. Cheng comes to the door, can you take him to meet that Mr. Song?" ”

When the words fell, the lobby fell into silence again, and even Cheng Hong's face changed slightly, and he didn't talk anymore.

"Just because some people have left doesn't mean we don't care."

Wang Ping'an looked at Fu Yuan, and his tone was a little indifferent: "Master Fu, now that the demon crisis has not been completely lifted, it is better to have some thoughts and fight less." ”

After saying that, the aura around him became a little cold, especially with a hint of warning in his eyes.

Everyone present was also very quiet, and fully understood the meaning of Wang Ping'an's words.

The Mr. Song invited by Qingzhou Academy, will they not know which Mr. Song it is? It's just that no one points it out.

And Fu Yuan's words were obviously to get close to the other party, and the Taihao Sword Sect must have an opinion on this, even if Mr. Song had already broken away from the Taihao Sword Sect, but the Taihao Sect had also spoken at the beginning, and everyone understood that Mr. Song had not been given up, and he was still regarded as his own person.

Wang Ping'an knew this, so he spoke directly, and emphasized it to everyone again.

Confucianism is nothing, there is no division of power, but the method of cultivation is different.

But Jinyi Tianwei represents the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Taihao Sword Sect naturally cared.

"Elder Wang is right, now we really have to focus on big things." Fu Yuan looked at Wang Ping'an, his eyes did not flinch in the slightest, but he did not continue to dwell on this topic, but spoke: "We got the news, behind this incident is a land demon who escaped from Beizhou, although he was injured and his strength has dropped greatly, but he still has to be careful and subtle, and the disciples of Taihao Sword Sect are outside, so you have to pay attention." ”

Although these words are heartfelt, they are still full of gunpowder, Wang Ping'an frowned slightly, but he didn't break out in the end, but just said: "We have been prepared for a long time, and we are looking for the news of the earth demon, so Master Fu can rest assured." ”

This sentence made the other three breathe a sigh of relief, Taihao Sword Sect and the Great Zhou Dynasty did have some disagreements, but fortunately, the main right and wrong were very clear.

"Both of you are right, the most important thing now is to work together to deal with the demons."

The Pavilion Master of Wanshi Pavilion and the Dean of the Academy, Cheng Hong, spoke accordingly.

didn't talk about Song Zhishu's topic, otherwise the demon problem would not have been solved, and it would not be good to start infighting.

Wang Ping'an and Fu Yuan just glanced at each other, and they also began to continue to improve their plans this time.

The five of them are the executors of the Qingzhou Demon Plague, and there can be no problem.

Otherwise, if something big happens, few can afford it.

Cheng Hong looked at the two people in front of him, shook his head slightly, and thought of Song Zhishu's figure, although it was only a foundation realm, it didn't seem to be important, but it was favored by everyone, and he was worthy of being able to directly face Mu Changge.

Meanwhile.

Yun Ling Zhai in a guest room.

Song Zhishu sat cross-legged, and the Heavenly Thunder Bottle stood above his head, descending purple thunder.

The power of the thunder continued to swim around him, sizzling, and it seemed to contain terrifying power.

In an instant, Song Zhishu opened his eyes, and a ray of thunder flashed in his eyes, and the aura revealed by his body was even more powerful than before, this was just pure physical power.

"I finally tempered my physique to the middle stage of foundation building, and only half a month has passed, and the Heavenly Thunder Bottle really didn't disappoint me."

Song Zhishu clenched his fists and was very satisfied after feeling the power conceived in his flesh and blood.

He found that because he had been tempered with the power of thunder and lightning from the Heavenly Thunder Bottle, his body also contained a trace of thunder power, but because he had not fought against the enemy, he didn't know how strong it was.

But all in all, now my two weakest abilities have also been fully raised.

In addition, during this period of time, Song Zhishu also engraved dozens of precious jades, plus the pill talisman that he had before, everything was ready, and he had now reached the strongest state at this stage.

"It's time to collide with that so-called demon."

Song Zhishu's expression was calm, thinking that Chen Jingyun had passed the word a few days ago that he had successfully built the foundation, and he would take the task out of the city in the next few days, and now the time should be about the same.

And just as he was thinking about this, there was a knock at the door.

"Mr. Song."

Is it coming?

Song Zhishu naturally heard whose voice it was, and immediately got up and opened the door.

I saw four people standing outside the door, in addition to Chen Jingyun, there were Lin Cheng, Wang Chong and Li Xiansong.

Song Zhishu made a salute and immediately invited all the people into the door.

"Mr. Song." Chen Jingyun returned the salute, came to the room and sat down, and then spoke: "I discussed it with Lin Cheng's three Taoist friends, and the five of us will form a team, and according to the requirements of Wanshi Pavilion, I have already found five more people, and they will meet us on the day of departure." ”

Wan Shi Ge issued a task about the demon incident, in addition to the need for Confucian scholars, a team of at least ten people.

The purpose is that if there is a real crisis, they can take care of each other even when there are a large number of people.

Otherwise, the number of people is too small, and it is easy to have problems.

In this regard, Song Zhishu naturally has no opinion, and Lin Cheng and the others joined, and the two of them said it a few days ago, after all, the five of them had cooperated before, and they had already established a relationship of mutual trust, plus they were all cultivators of the foundation realm, so it was naturally the best choice.

"Okay, I just don't know who the other five people Mr. Chen is looking for?" Song Zhishu handed over all the things about finding someone to the other party, but he was about to leave the city, so he naturally had to understand in advance.

"It's all loose cultivation, I have investigated it before, and the character is good, speaking of which, those people have also listened to Mr. Song's lectures in the academy, and they are very happy to hear me say that you have joined you to go out of the city this time, and they said that they would come to meet in advance, but I think Mr. Song may be preparing, so I will help you decline, anyway, just these few days, not in a hurry for these two days." Chen Jingyun replied.

"What Mr. Chen said is right, Song Daoyou, you don't know, since you gave a lecture in the academy last time, your reputation has risen sharply, and many casual cultivators have heard that the reason why Qingzhou Academy does not set a threshold for lecturing is that you proposed it, and they all admired you very much, saying that they wanted to see your true face, but they were all stopped by Mr. Chen."

"Yes, even the three of you have Confucian righteousness in their bodies after listening to your lectures."

Mr. Chen also said that during this time, people would go to the academy every day and ask if you would give lectures again.

Lin Cheng and the three of them took the words, with sighs and excitement in their words, in the eyes of the three of them, Song Zhishu was like a god, and there was only admiration left in his heart.

It must be known that they went to Qingzhou Academy before the lockdown, wanting to see if they had the talent to read, but the reality was very cruel, and they didn't even have the qualifications to become students, but because they listened to Song Zhishu's lectures, they actually cultivated Confucian righteousness.

The three of them did not show up in the past few days, and they were also adapting to this force and preparing to go out of the city.

Hearing this, Song Zhishu noticed that there was indeed a surge of Confucian righteousness in Lin Cheng's three bodies, but it was very weak, and he really couldn't see it if he didn't feel it carefully, and they were generally in the stage of just getting started.

Therefore, he smiled softly, and then spoke: "This is all the creation of the three Taoist friends, and it has nothing to do with me. ”

Song Zhishu understood that if there was no lecture that day, if the three of them had to take time out to concentrate on reading, it would only be a matter of time before they cultivated Confucian righteousness, of course, it was just that, as for the knowledge of the Holy Realm, they needed to be taught and understood by famous teachers.

But as long as Confucianism is upright, it will indeed have more confidence in the face of demons.

However, Song Zhishu didn't say much about this matter, and immediately turned his head to look at Chen Jingyun and said, "Mr. Chen, since it has been arranged, let's talk about the situation of this mission first, and we can find out in advance." ”

Lin Cheng and the others also nodded, they came here today to make final preparations for going out of the city.

"That's exactly what I mean."

Hearing this, Chen Jingyun took a deep breath: "Our mission this time is to go to a few villages three hundred miles outside the city, which were originally mortal residences, and after the city was closed, the City Lord's Mansion sent a few monks to garrison it, but just some time ago, a sect monk passed by, only to find that the villagers of several villages had disappeared mysteriously. ”

In addition to the main city, Qingzhou also encompasses several other sub-cities and thousands of villages, large and small.

The lockdown is only the main city, and for other places, monks will be sent to garrison according to the situation.

In order to ensure that if a demon is found, it can be notified at any time and respond in time.

This is something that Song Zhishu has known for a long time.

"And then? Where did the monk go? ”

Lin Cheng opened his mouth, with curiosity, it was not difficult to make the mortals of several villages disappear, the key was to live or die with those monks, which could bring more information.

"After that, the Wanshi Pavilion and the City Lord's Mansion sent people to investigate the situation, but they didn't find any clues, and there were no traces of a fight, as if they had disappeared out of thin air." Chen Jingyun's tone was very solemn, and he continued: "After a few days of investigation, I found the monks stationed hundreds of miles outside the village, but they were not injured, but they didn't know what happened, they knew their names and identities, but they only lacked all the memories of the village, which was very strange. ”

"Wan Shi Pavilion and the City Lord's Mansion concluded that this was a demon rebellion, because only a demon could do it so unknowingly, and immediately issued a mission."

He told all the details of this mission, and there was not a single omission.

And after Chen Jingyun finished speaking, Lin Cheng and the others suddenly became solemn.

Before you know it, let the people of the entire village disappear directly, or if there are Qi cultivators stationed there...

Several people are building foundation realms, and it is not very difficult to do this, the difficulty lies in making a person lose a certain period of memory, let alone building a foundation realm, even if the monk Jiedan can't do it.

Because it's not just an ordinary loss of memory, it's an extraction, and they've never heard of anything like it.

For a while, several people were even more afraid of the so-called demon in their hearts.

Song Zhishu fell silent.

In his mind, he was thinking about the information provided by Chen Jingyun.

His thoughts were actually similar to those of Lin Cheng and the others, and he felt that the methods with demons were very strange.

However, Song Zhishu didn't think about it deeply, and after a little muttering, he said slowly: "Then when will we leave?" ”

No matter how much you sit here, it's useless to think about it, only by going to investigate in person can you understand the situation, especially the demon's methods, which also makes him finally know why the major forces are paying great attention to it, and the mortals of several villages have disappeared mysteriously, which is too weird.

Moreover, since Wan Shi Pavilion can release it as a mission, it is obvious that this kind of incident is not a big deal.

What is really serious are the ones that need to be dealt with by the major forces, even the Taihao Sword Sect.

"I'm ready, tomorrow morning."

Chen Jingyun opened his mouth, he had already made a plan, after all, he initiated the investigation of the demon incident this time, and he must be fully prepared.

"Okay."

When Song Zhishu heard this, he also meant the same, the sooner the better.

Who knows if the so-called demon will stay after the villager disappears.

"The three of us don't have a problem either." Seeing that Song Zhishu agreed, Lin Cheng and the others had no opinion, and as for the fear in their hearts, they were also forcibly suppressed, since they decided to go, they would not regret it, and they also had Confucian righteousness in their bodies, which was considered some confidence.

Immediately, the five of them talked about the details of the trip and the things to prepare, and then dispersed.

This was the first time they had faced demons, and everyone was in a solemn mood.

In addition to completing the tasks issued by the Wan Shi Pavilion.

The most important thing is to keep this trip safe and sound, and of course there is no heart to say anything else.

Song Zhishu was soon left alone in the room, still thinking about Chen Jingyun's words, the demon's methods are indeed weird, and they haven't really seen it yet, but they already give people a great sense of oppression.

"Everything is tomorrow."

Song Zhishu muttered to himself, didn't say anything more, and sat down directly.

I plan to use this last time to adjust my condition to the best.

There was no word all night, and unconsciously, day and night alternated.

In the early morning, the sun rises in the east.

The light of the great sun shines on the earth, giving people an extremely warm feeling.

On the bed, Song Zhishu opened his eyes, got up and cleaned up, prepared all his things and walked out of the inn.

The streets of Qingzhou City still look a little deserted and no longer prosperous, but as time goes by, the demon incident is under control, and many people have begun to go out, unlike before, there are few people who can't be seen.

Song Zhishu set off from the inn and walked all the way to the agreed place yesterday, that is, the gate of the East City.

Before he got close, he found that Chen Jingyun and the others were already waiting there.

In addition, there are five other people, all of whom are in the foundation building realm, and one of them is an obese monk who is in the middle stage of foundation building, and he seems to be a little familiar.

He was the only one who asked questions that day.

Song Zhishu remembered it and had some impressions of that person, but he didn't say anything and walked over directly.

"Let me introduce to you fellow Daoists, this is Mr. Song Zhishu Song, a Taoist and Confucian double cultivator, and the leader of this mission." After Chen Jingyun and Song Zhishu approached, he immediately opened his mouth to everyone with a smile in his eyes.

He was the organizer of the mission, but it was a bit dangerous to go out of the city on this trip, so he handed over the leading tasks to Song Zhishu.

The reason is also very simple, after all, Song Zhishu is the highest cultivation and the strongest among the ten people present.

There is no doubt that wherever the strong are strong, they are dominant.

Song Zhishu also followed the words and bowed slightly: "I have seen five Taoist friends, and along the way, I hope to work together with several Taoist friends to cut off the trouble of demons." ”

"Mr. Song is polite."

The fat monk immediately stepped forward and spoke directly: "Student Yuan Ming, who has studied for several years, but has never been able to grasp the essentials, that day I listened to Mr. talk about the way of a gentleman, and suddenly became enlightened, cultivated Confucian righteousness, and entered the Confucian condensation realm. ”

After speaking, Yuan Ming immediately bowed and saluted, his posture was very low, and his tone was very sincere.

"Yuan Daoyou is polite."

Seeing this, Song Zhishu helped the other party up and said with a smile: "I was also invited by Mr. Cheng Hong, if you want to thank you, you should thank Mr. Cheng." ”

What he said was right, after all, the last time he gave a lecture, it was Mr. Cheng Hong who mentioned it.

"Mr. Song is too modest, you propose that there is no threshold, and anyone who goes can listen to it, such a mind, it really makes me respect." Another monk spoke, he had also heard Song Zhishu's lecture in the academy, and he also performed a disciple salute like Yuan Ming.

"Mr. Song, let them follow their wishes, you have 3,000 people listening to your lectures, and in our Confucianism, you can indeed be counted as your students."

Chen Jingyun walked forward and asked Song Zhishu not to stop him, to solve people's doubts, to be enlightened, and to be regarded as a teacher in Confucianism.

In this regard, Song Zhishu felt helpless, but he also knew that it was really bad if he disagreed.

After a while, the rest of the people also began to salute and introduce themselves one by one.

In addition to Yuan Ming, the other four people are named Gu Siqing, Shen Xing, Lou Zhong and Sha Wenxuan, plus Lin Cheng and others and Song Zhishu, a group of ten people, and everyone has one characteristic, that is, they are all loose cultivators.

According to Chen Jingyun, although the disciples of the family sect are stronger, they are also arrogant, and sometimes they will not obey orders.

But casual cultivation is different, in the face of someone who is stronger than himself, even if he has an opinion, he will listen.

In particular, he has been carefully selected, and there is definitely no problem in working together.

Immediately afterwards, after discussing the plan and details of the mission, everyone immediately prepared to leave.

However, now is the lockdown period, and there must be a task waist card jointly issued by Wanshi Pavilion and the City Lord's Mansion before you can go out of the city, these Chen Jingyun have already been prepared, and after being inspected by the city protectors, everyone left the city.

The target location was three hundred miles away from Qingzhou City, and in order to hurry, everyone unanimously decided to fly the sword.

"Mr. Song, a few fellow Daoists, the first place we went to was called Luojiazhuang, and it was also the first place where the accident was discovered, and recently, the plan was for us to stay in Luojiazhuang for one night, and if we didn't find it, we would go to the next place."

On the heavenly dome, the figure of the Ten Edges was walking with the sword, Song Zhishu was in the center, and Chen Jingyun beside him was introducing the general situation.

There were several places where the accident occurred, so for the sake of safety, they did not choose to separate, but acted in unison.

Inevitably, when the time comes, the crisis will not be able to take care of it.

And Song Zhishu and Chen Jingyun are really scholars who have entered the realm, plus their own cultivation, the other eight people naturally obeyed and nodded one after another.

Immediately, the crowd did not speak again, and looked ahead, three hundred miles was not very far for them.

So before half a day had passed, they were already approaching their destination.

"It's Luojiazhuang in front."

Chen Jingyun took the map and pointed not far away.

Song Zhishu immediately cast his gaze, only to see that on the ground in front of him, there was a village, backed by a hill, and there was a winding river in front of the village, but it was close to exhaustion, and the scene in the village was not very clear, shrouded by wisps of clouds and mist, and it could probably be seen that there were about a few hundred people, neither big nor small.

And he also found that when he looked at that village, the righteous qi in his body was vibrating slightly, as if he had sensed it.

looked at Chen Jingyun on the side, but there was nothing abnormal in his expression, obviously he didn't find it.

Haoran righteousness is purer than ordinary Confucian righteousness.

I can feel it, but it doesn't mean that every Confucian scholar can, not to mention that the other party still knows the holy realm.

After thinking about it for a while, Song Zhishu did not hesitate and spoke directly: "Don't land directly in Luojiazhuang, let's observe outside first." ”

"Yes."

Chen Jingyun saw that Song Zhishu might have found something, but he didn't ask, but beckoned the rest of the people to fall.

When they came to the ground, everyone waited solemnly, did not speak, and looked at Luojiazhuang not far away.

All areas of Zhuangzi are enclosed by walls, and the façade is closed with red lacquered gates.

The lacquer seemed to have passed a little time, but it was still bright red, like flowing blood.

There is also a plaque on it, which reads 'Luojiazhuang'.

"Mr. Song?"

Chen Jingyun looked at Song Zhishu and said, "Go in now?" ”

Song Zhishu did not answer immediately, but sensed it with Haoran righteousness, and found that the previous feeling disappeared, and there seemed to be no problem with the Zhuangzi in front of him, and he did not find anything abnormal when he poked out the Yuan Shen, and nodded after a little silence: "Go in, but remember, don't be separated, at least within sight." ”

The monk has a primordial spirit that can be perceived, which is more useful than the eye, but many times the primordial spirit can be blocked, at least close within the line of sight.

"Okay." Chen Jingyun nodded and waved his hand, and everyone did not hesitate to enter together.

Pushing open the red lacquer gate, the scene inside the Zhuangzi comes into view.

The road in front of us was paved with fallen leaves, dry flowers and plants, and bare trees, each of which was a sign that the place was uninhabited, but in stark contrast to the scattered houses, which, when seen through the cracks in the doors, were not cluttered except for a little dust.

There were even cooked meals, but because it had been a long time, they had gone rancid.

And after entering, everyone present felt a chill.

But it's not very obvious.

"Sure enough, it disappeared all of a sudden."

After seeing this, Song Zhishu immediately noticed that the villagers in the village had indeed disappeared suddenly, and they didn't even feel the slightest danger between the disappearances, otherwise the house would not be so clean.

"What now?" Lin Cheng had a dry mouth and a hoarse tone, obviously it was a mortal village, but it gave him a strange feeling.

You must know that the leader of the Fire Pattern Spirit Monkey in the late stage of foundation building didn't give him this feeling.

"Search all the houses and see if you find any."

Song Zhishu also encountered this situation for the first time, and he couldn't make any good decisions, so he could only check room by room, and if he couldn't find any clues, he would stay here for one night according to what Chen Jingyun said before.

But the more this is the case, the more you have to be careful, demons and demons, what is a demon? Incomprehensible, unpredictable.

When the other nine people heard this, they nodded one after another, but they did not choose to separate, but together, they started to check from the first room in the Zhuangzi.

Song Zhishu was in front of everyone, and at the same time he was constantly surging in his body, as long as there was a problem, he would make a strong move, and just when he pushed open the first door, a piercing chill slowly hit.

Touch!

It was at this moment that a violent roar appeared in the ears of everyone present.

It is the gate of Zhuangzi, which is directly pushed to the ground at the moment and scattered on the ground.

Bursts of breath poured in.

Everyone used their mana and looked at the red-lacquered gate that had fallen to the ground, extremely vigilant.

Is it a demon?

Some people died, but not completely......
