Chapter 55: The Manifestation of the City God
Everything was calm in the Zou family, and the thieves never appeared.
Qi Zixiao was helpless, and said to the three of them, that is, to leave, and go back to the house to rest, just now the ghost came back, he is now haggard, and he needs to take a good rest.
The next day, Qi Zixiao got up to wash, and after breakfast, he walked outside.
After buying a basket of steamed buns on the road, Qi Zixiao rushed towards Yizhuang.
"Knock" "Knock" "Knock" ......
With the sound of knocking on the door, Li Shenzhou's figure appeared at the door, looking at Qi Zixiao lazily.
Sitting on a stool in the courtyard, Li Shenzhou listened to Qi Zixiao tell about his experience in hell while eating steamed buns, and heard that the flowers on the other side, Huangquan, and lonely souls and wild ghosts had not changed in the slightest, but when he heard the little monk in the Pure Land, Li Shenzhou's eyes flashed.
"Uncle Li, have you heard of the Pure Land?"
Qi Zixiao looked at Li Shenzhou and asked curiously.
As a former night watchman, Li Shenzhou should know more than Ye Hongling, maybe know more.
Li Shenzhou was silent for a moment, looked at Qi Zixiao, and slowly spoke, "This is a mysterious force on the Shenzhou Continent, involving an old matter, well, it's useless for you to know now." ”
"However, you can know the people of the Pure Land, it can be regarded as luck, that force has always been about fate, you get a dark coin from the other party, the two sides have established cause and effect, sooner or later they will meet, by that time, you should know the origin of the Pure Land......"
Hearing this, Qi Zixiao also stopped pursuing it.
Turning to the matter of the knotting and peeling case, he told Li Shenzhou the story about the red scissors, Li Shenzhou heard this, and there was no surprise in his eyes, "That little monk is not wrong, this should be a dead weapon, an item for the burial of the dead, channeling for a long time, and further, it is the so-called spiritual weapon, and at that time, the power of this scissors will be terrifying!" ”
As he spoke, he looked at Qi Zixiao, "When you met the spirit of Mengjiazhuang before, you also saw the sword of the night weight, that is the spirit weapon, commonly known as the psychic weapon, since the beginning of the spirit, the spirit weapon is also born accordingly, each spirit weapon has different characteristics and supernatural powers......"
"Just like that sword, its characteristic is to slash spirits, as long as the power of the spirit is not terrifying to the extreme, a sword down, all the spirits will be killed...... It was a terrifying artifact, and it was among the best among the artifacts I knew! ”
Hearing this, Qi Zixiao's heart was shocked, and he had a clearer understanding of the so-called spirit weapon.
"However, the more powerful the spiritual weapon, the more restrictions there are, and the greater the side effects, and some spiritual weapons, just using it once, may have to pay the price of life."
Li Shenzhou's tone was solemn, "I have dealt with a lot of spiritual calamities, and some B-level spiritual calamities can't be solved by night watchmen, so I have to use some special spiritual weapons to deal with them. ”
"Many of the Night's Watch have died in the process of using spiritual weapons."
After speaking, he looked at Qi Zixiao, "That scissor can't reach this level, it should be someone who is deliberately cultivating this scissors, if you want to make it a spiritual weapon, you need to find this scissors and deal with it, otherwise, once this scissors become a spiritual weapon, the first unlucky one is Qingxian, at that time, it will not be one or two people who will die, and you can't imagine the power of the spiritual weapon." ”
Hearing this, Qi Zixiao's face was solemn, "I understand, I will mobilize all my forces to find the murderer." ”
After speaking, Qi Zixiao left here and walked towards the county office.
Looking at his back, Li Shenzhou shook his head with a smile, "Young people are just ...... have momentum"
He looked at the knife in the firewood room next to him, "You say, can this little guy solve it?" ”
The blade buzzed slightly, as if in response.
……
When he arrived at the county office, he briefly inquired about the progress of the case, and Qi Zixiao was immersed in cultivation, found a small courtyard by himself, and meditated and practiced in the courtyard.
Lin Shan had already ordered to go down and search everywhere for people who looked like the skinned woman.
Footsteps flew in the courtyard, and phantoms appeared, accompanied by a low knife sound, tearing the air.
"Huh"
I don't know how long it has been, Qi Zixiao slashed out, and a terrible sonic boom sounded in the courtyard.
Slowly retracting the long knife, Qi Zixiao looked at the footsteps on the ground, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, and when he reached the second-grade level, he found that the martial arts cultivation was terrifying to enter the realm slowly.
No wonder Zheng Hu, Lin Shan and the others have been trapped at this level, and the third realm Divine Bridge has never been able to reach!
"The county town gave me a ginseng before, and it seems that I need to find a time to refine the medicinal power of ginseng, so that I may be able to speed up my cultivation."
Qi Zixiao muttered to himself and looked up at the sky, the sky was gloomy and it was already approaching dusk.
The next moment, Lin Fei came in from outside and spoke excitedly.
"Head, a big discovery!"
Hearing this, Qi Zixiao's eyes froze, "What's wrong?" ”
"Someone accidentally found a person who looked like the skinned girl, just west of the city......"
Lin Fei said with a look of ecstasy.
The words fell, Qi Zixiao's figure disappeared in place, and Lin Fei opened his mouth wide, "I haven't finished speaking, it's near the City God Temple in the west of the city......"
At this time, Qi Zixiao and Lin Shan rushed to the vicinity of the City God Temple in the west of the city with a group of people, and some characters who looked like street gangsters stepped forward and looked at them with flattery.
"Lin Tou, Qi Tou, the portraits you sent down before have all been read, just before a stick of incense, I found the same woman as the portrait, entered the City God Temple, and then left from the City God Temple, it seems to be out of the city."
Hearing the other party's words, Lin Fei threw the other party a piece of broken silver, and said flatly, "Well done, this is a reward for you." ”
"Haha, being able to help the yamen do things, this is my blessing for Leper Liu."
The other party took the silver with a look of surprise and thanked him again and again.
Qi Zixiao looked at the City God Temple where the incense was strong, with red walls and white tiles, and in the courtyard of the temple, there was a huge incense burner, and the breath of incense was rising.
There are many people who come to worship the gods, and they are extremely pious, kneeling in front of the city god and praying constantly.
The statue is covered with a layer of gold leaf, which shimmers with a dazzling golden light.
Chenghuang's eyes looked forward with pity, as if he was praying for the blessings of all beings, and the two golden-armored guards beside him looked mighty, as if they could kill any demons and monsters.
On the side of the courtyard, there is also a large willow tree, on which are hung various purses, tied with red ropes, and in which everyone's wishes are placed.
A newlywed couple knelt in front of the door and looked at the City God Temple with a reverent face, "Lord City God, please manifest yourself and bless us to give birth to a kind and lovely child." ”
A middle-aged woman who looked like a noble lady burst into tears, "Master Chenghuang, please bless my lord with good health and a speedy recovery......."
A scholar is constantly blessing Master Chenghuang so that he can be admitted to Xiucai.
In front of the City God Temple, life is full of joys and sorrows, deducing the most real side of the world.
Man grows by desire, and he also falls by desire.
Desire is endless, and as long as there are people, desire can never be dissipated.
At this time, Qi Zixiao, Lin Shan and the others stood at the door, looking at the old man Chenghuang who had borne the incense of the entire Qingxian County, Qi Zixiao's face was gloomy, with a touch of coldness.
The next moment, he vaguely saw that the City God's gaze suddenly turned to him, with a terrifying pressure to the extreme.
At this moment, Qi Zixiao slowly exhaled, "Four products!" ”
He knew the power of this city god, the power of the fourth grade, no, it was stronger than the power of the little monk of Jueqing!
He vaguely noticed that there seemed to be a smile in the other party's eyes.
He was about to take a step forward, when suddenly, the statue in front of him emitted a faint golden light, enveloping several people who were praying in front of him, and the golden light scattered and entered their bodies.
"Lord Chenghuang has appeared, Lord Chenghuang has appeared......"
At this time, everyone around them spoke loudly and in a fanatical tone.
"Master Chenghuang, please bless my child to live a long life and smooth sailing......
"Lord Chenghuang, please bless me with a fortune and earn countless silver......
“……”
A group of people knelt in front of the temple and kept kowtowing, trying to seek protection.
Qi Zixiao thought of the words of the existence of the Golden Palace in his mind, the so-called gods in this world were nothing more than pseudo-gods!
Behind him, some catchers also stepped forward and knelt down on the ground reverently.
"Is this a disgrace for me?"
Qi Zixiao muttered to himself, he knew that if he made any moves here, he would face the counterattack of these people as soon as possible, so he held the long knife at his waist and left expressionlessly.
Lin Shan also hurriedly followed.
Rushing out of the city, looking at the sun that was about to set outside, Qi Zixiao rushed along a road according to Leper Liu's words.
The end of the world spread out at hand, and his speed was ridiculously fast, leaving Lin Shan far behind in less than half a cup of tea.
As he walked forward, he vaguely saw a vague figure walking on the road, very similar to Wang Xiaofang, his eyes were fixed, his speed skyrocketed, and he wanted to catch up with the other party, but what shocked Qi Zixiao was that no matter how fast he was, that blurred figure was always ahead.
There seems to be an immensculous distance between them.
Qi Zixiao looked at the sky, the sky darkened, the night fell, and the vague figure entered a mountain forest.
The corners of Qi Zixiao's mouth lifted a touch of coldness, and he muttered to himself, "This is deliberately leading me here, it seems that the people behind it can't help it, and they want to solve me, it's okay, let me see what means you have!" ”
As he spoke, he glanced at the back, it was pitch black, and Lin Shan and the others didn't know where they were.
He didn't hesitate, strode forward directly, and disappeared into the mountains and forests.
It's not the first time he's rushed to the mountain road, the last time he chased the evil corpse, he met a Yin Walking Dart Master, this time, Qi Zixiao didn't know what he would encounter.
There was a whistling wind in the mountains and forests, like a woman's crying, and there was a "rustling" sound on the ground, as if some creature was shuttling among them.
