Yongtai nineteen years, spring.

Four months have passed since the death of the water ghost.

In the study.

Xu Chong took out a small bell and poured strength into it.

There is no 'bell bell' ringing, there are just invisible fluctuations rippling in circles.

When the fluctuation stopped, Xu Chong put away the bell and sat on the chair with his eyes closed to recuperate.

A moment later, a thin figure dressed in black and carrying a fishing rod stepped out of the void and suddenly appeared in the study.

It was Dou Tianyuan.

As soon as Dou Tianyuan came out, he looked around.

After making sure that no one else existed, he stumbled under his feet, and his face turned pale instantly.

"You are on horseback...... Why didn't you call me over? ”

"I'm telling you a thousand times, so that you must use the Cloud Piercing Order at a critical moment of life and death!"

"Do you know how far it is from the capital to here?"

"Lao Tzu was almost pumped out ......"

Dou Tianyuan's voice stopped abruptly.

Because Xu Chong opened his eyes.

"Subordinate, I've seen the commander-in-chief."

Xu Chong got up and bowed for a week.

Killing Intent!

From Xu Chong's eyes, Dou Tianyuan saw a killing intent that was so rich that it was almost substantial!

Moreover, this killing intent doesn't seem to be aimed at himself?

Demons?!

Dou Tianyuan's complexion changed greatly, he threw away the fishing rod, took a step, and directly grabbed Xu Chong's wrist, "Wash your body ninefold...... Completely ignoring the rules of calming the nerves, how long has this inner demon been piled up? ”

"It starts with the fivefold washing."

Xu Chong smiled.

To be precise, it starts after the death of the water spirit.

Since the death of the water ghost, Xu Chong has been suffering from the nuisance of demons all the time.

He couldn't remember how many images he had seen.

Scolding, asking for life, seducing, this is the lowest level.

Massacres, rapes, looting, all kinds of hellish scenes.

And the most cruel ...... Death replay.

Including what happened, whether he witnessed it or not.

Liu Er, Aunt Ma, Zhang Cripple, Lao Li, Master......

It also includes those that haven't happened yet.

Zhao Liu, Li Xiangxue, Sun Yurong, Ge Wanshan, Kou Ruohai, Jiang Zhihong, Dou Tianyuan......

But anyone who is a little closer to Xu Chong, whether they are dead or alive, they all die hundreds of times in front of Xu Chong's eyes in the way of demons.

"You're still laughing?!"

Dou Tianyuan's face was ugly, "Why don't you wait until you solve the inner demon before breaking through?" ”

If the demons are not removed, there is no way to plant the Tao.

Therefore, no matter who you are, you are always vigilant in the state of washing, and you will immediately find a solution as soon as you have demons.

But Xu Chong is good, washing his body ninefold, and the demons in his heart are also following the ninefold?

"The subordinates found that when the demons in their hearts and demons surround their bodies, their true strength will far exceed their current realm."

Xu Chong replied.

“…… So what? ”

Dou Tianyuan's face became even more ugly, "I'm afraid that as soon as you walk out of the Qin Heavenly Prison, you will be eaten by the heart demon on the spot and die!" ”

"Your Excellency is too worried."

Xu Chong shook his head, "It's really a little difficult at first, but after getting used to it, my subordinates can easily tell whether they are demons or not, and now it doesn't even affect their dealings with people, but the killing intent in their eyes is too obvious to hide at all." ”

Hearing this, Dou Tianyuan was not happy and surprised.

Martial arts have appeared for so many years, and some people have long tried to use inner demons.

It does confirm the saying that the stronger the demons, the stronger the strength.

The problem is that it won't last long.

Either he died violently under the backlash of the demons, or he was assimilated by the demons and became the devil who did all kinds of evil.

Xu Chong's situation is very similar to the latter situation.

"Who is your inner demon?"

Dou Tianyuan asked.

Whatever the cause of the demons, in the final analysis, it will be implemented in the person.

It could be a person, or it could be a group.

The only way he could think of was to take Xu Chong to solve this, or these people, immediately.

"Taiping Hou, Xie Changqing."

Xu Chong didn't hide it, "The subordinates took the liberty of inviting the adults over just to ask the adults about this fang." ”

"Xie Changqing......"

Dou Tianyuan's face softened slightly, and he sighed, "It seems that that water ghost is not a small favor with you." ”

As the intelligence leader of Daqing, Dou Tianyuan knew the time of the death of the water ghost, which can be said to be earlier than the imperial court.

Originally, he didn't take it seriously, but now it seems that the importance of this water ghost to Xu Chong is definitely not low.

What happened between the two?

"It's long gone beyond that."

Xu Chong shook his head with a smile, "Now, the subordinates just want to kill him." ”

"This ......"

Dou Tianyuan hesitated for a while, "Xie Changqing only has three layers of body washing, and he is indeed far from being your opponent, but in order to set an example and attract more anti-thieves, the imperial court has always protected Xie Changqing very well......

"The subordinates killed Xie Changqing not just to vent their anger."

Xu Chong shook his head, "I expected that once I killed Xie Changqing, my cultivation path would definitely succeed...... Even if it's the Purple Mansion Seed Dao! ”

"Really?!"

Dou Tianyuan's eyes widened suddenly.

"Adults should know that the Purple Mansion is the abode of the divine soul, and it cannot be easily touched, but ......"

Xu Chong raised his hand and pointed to his eyebrows, "After the heart demon walked around Yuchi and Huang Ting, he went in. ”

"What?!"

Dou Tianyuan exclaimed again.

Today he has already lost his temper more than once.

It's all because of Xu Chong.

"The inner demon has been condensed to the extreme, and it is no longer completely an existence of nothingness, but has become something similar to strength."

Xu Chong patiently explained, "The place where it is finally entrenched is the Purple Mansion in the Heart of the Eyebrows. ”

"For example, as you can see, the killing intent in my eyes is just a very small part of the demon that leaks out."

"Moreover, I can feel that my Purple Mansion is becoming stronger every moment."

"Perhaps...... Is this the demon preparing to replace me? ”

Xu Chong smiled and said, "All in all, I have a hunch that once I can kill Xie Changqing, my inner demon will turn into nutrients and create the strongest purple mansion that has never been seen before." ”

“…… Reclining horse! ”

A thick chill rose in Dou Tianyuan's heart.

The Purple Mansion Cultivation Road has been one of the biggest problems since ancient times.

First of all, there are extremely few gods in the Purple Mansion Cultivation Dao, and most of them will hide the essence of the Cultivation Dao and pretend to be the celestial beings of the Huangting Cultivation Dao.

Secondly, even if you can find the god of the Purple Mansion Cultivation Dao, and the other party is willing to tell him honestly, it is useless...... The reasons for each successful planting are different, and there is no pattern to it.

If Xu Chong's speculation is correct, then ...... This will be a revolution that will affect the entire power system!

After all, the seed path cannot be controlled by humans, but the demons can!

If it goes out public......

Think about how many people will deliberately create disputes in order to cultivate inner demons, and let themselves suffer emotions such as humiliation, hatred, guilt, etc.

It is not impossible to even kill a father, a mother, a wife, and a child.

"I can help you kill Xie Changqing."

Dou Tianyuan slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, "But you must remember that this matter must not be revealed to anyone again, once it is known by Taiping Dao......"

The court still has laws to govern, but Taiping Dao will not scruple so much.

Once leaked, it is a monstrous disaster.

"Your Excellency misunderstood."

Xu Chong shook his head, "Xie Changqing, I can only kill it myself, not anyone's hands." ”

"Huh?"

Dou Tianyuan's heart sank, "This is a necessary condition for turning the heart demon into nutrients?" ”

"Exactly."

Xu Chong nodded with a smile.

"But the problem is, you ...... that kind of protection."

Dou Tianyuan wanted to speak and stopped.

"I have a picture coat in my hand, pretending to be blind, I should have a chance to get close."

Xu Chong had a plan.

"I'm afraid this opportunity is not easy to find......"

Dou Tianyuan was not optimistic, shook his head, and said, "Forget it, I'll tell you his information first, and you can decide for yourself." ”

"Thank you, for your heart."

Xu Chong hugged his fists and saluted, and then led with one hand: "My lord, please take a seat." ”

"Hmm."

Dou Tianyuan nodded and sat down, and said slowly.

Xie Changqing accepted Zhao'an, and it was still a trivial matter to help the imperial court exterminate a provincial branch, and the huge prestige brought by this matter was what the imperial court valued the most.

After all, Taiping Dao is like a flea, always bouncing around Daqing.

The loss of warriors and materials is not worth mentioning, but in terms of people's hearts, it really gives the court a headache.

According to the investigation of the general guard, even in the capital, there are many officials who secretly communicate with Taiping Dao to seek huge profits.

This kind of behavior of eating in the bowl and looking at the pot is unacceptable to the royal family.

But this matter is very involved, and there is no substantial evidence to be found, so the royal family can only stare dryly and sulk.

At most, it's just a few of the most serious suspects to wear small shoes.

Those who should be the first to the two ends of the rat continue to be the first to the two ends, and those who should sell the interests of the court continue to sell the interests of the court.

And now it's different.

Even the Xie family, one of the six major families of Taiping Dao, took refuge in the imperial court.

What is the concept?

If you cooperate with Taiping Dao again, maybe your partner will take refuge in the imperial court that day.

Just ask if you're afraid.

As a result, Xie Changqing, the former thief, turned into a Taiping Marquis Xie Changqing, and was also the political envoy of Selangor Province.

It doesn't end there.

Because of the title of the word 'Taiping'.

This is almost no different from slapping Taiping Dao in the face in person, and it is the kind of slap left and right over and over again.

Bang bang.

Naturally, Taiping Dao wants to get rid of Xie Changqing and then quickly revive the righteousness.

It's a pity that the imperial court had expected this.

The entire Selangor Prefecture's Cheng Xuan Political Envoy Department was set up in many ambushes, causing Taiping Dao to lose batch after batch of manpower, but in the end, he didn't even see Xie Changqing's face.

"What kind of ambush?"

Xu Chong frowned and asked.

"A Taoist weapon called Pure Heart Glass, but anyone who harbors hostile intentions, as long as he steps into the Chengxuan Political Envoy Division, will be immediately discovered."

Dou Tianyuan replied, and then added: "It's not okay to pick stars, this Dao weapon is controlled by Xie Changqing, which provides him with extremely strong protection capabilities...... Unless you find a hidden weapon of the same Dao level. ”

"If you're hostile, you'll be discovered?"

Xu Chong's heart sank slightly.

Can something as illusory as hostility be detected?

It is worthy of the Taoist ......

It's a pity that the unphased clothes can only cover up the appearance and breath, and if nothing else, it can't cover up the hostility, otherwise it won't be called the unphased clothes, it should be called the invincible clothes.

What's more, his attitude towards Xie Changqing far exceeds the concept of hostility, which is naked killing intent.

"It's not just a Taoist artifact."

"The force that guards him is the commander of the Selangor Province, although it is far less powerful than the Bloody Guard, but it is better than the number of people, and the bows, swords, and armor equipped are all at the level of French soldiers."

"Twelve hours of non-stop patrolling, standing guard, whenever there is any wind and grass, it is covered together."

"Even if Xie Changqing goes out, the protection of his entourage will not be lost in the slightest."

Dou Tianyuan sighed after speaking, "I don't see any hope for you to kill him...... Forget it, I'll help you kill him, let the demons dissipate, and do the same for the Jade Pond Cultivation Road. ”

"Your Excellency just said ......"

Xu Chong grasped the key point in his words, and asked instead of answering: "Xie Changqing will also go out?" ”

"Of course."

Dou Tianyuan glanced at Xu Chong speechlessly, "It's so good that he is the respect of the Hou Ye, and he is a high-ranking official, he has been nested in the yamen from beginning to end, can he be willing?" What's more, the imperial court just wants him to move around......"

Truly.

The more the betrayer is publicized, the more stimulated the betrayed party will be, and the more powerful the betrayer will be.

Xu Chong frowned and thought.

"Listen to me, there's really no way, just let me do it."

Dou Tianyuan repeated it again.

"My subordinates want to try again."

Xu Chong's expression insisted.

In fact, he just lied.

As long as Xie Changqing dies, his inner demons will turn into nutrients to moisturize and tamp the purple mansion of his eyebrows.

There is no such thing as having to be killed with your own hands.

The reason why he told this lie was because he knew that even if he used Dou Tianyuan's coffee position to kill the current Xie Changqing, he would be severely punished.

It's nothing for a hundred officials to write a letter of impeachment, after so many years in the position of the commander-in-chief of the Bloody Guard, Dou Tianyuan should have been used to impeachment for a long time.

But what Emperor Qing would think, and what kind of punishment he would inflict, it was not clear.

As for not being discovered......

It is true that one hand can come and go without a trace, but it is precisely this one that comes and goes without a trace, and it is easy to suspect Dou Tianyuan's head.

So if it weren't for the emergency, it was best not to let Dou Tianyuan take this risk.

So he wanted to try again for himself.

"Try it...... How long can your demons be stable? ”

Dou Tianyuan asked.

"If you stay in Qin Tianjian, it's okay to keep going like this."

Xu Chong replied, "If you go out, bring the tea that Yuan Jian is growing, about three months." ”

"Three months."

Dou Tianyuan pondered for a long time, his eyes sharpened: "Okay, I'll give you three months, and after three months, if Xie Changqing doesn't die, I will take action." ”

“…… What kind of punishment will you receive? ”

Xu Chong asked in a deep voice.

"I shouldn't be able to die."

Dou Tianyuan touched his chin, "But if you go to the Imperial Prison and be imprisoned for five, six, seven or eight years, I'm afraid there will be." ”

Imperial Prison ......

Xu Chong's heart tightened, and he was a little more determined to kill Xie Changqing with his own hands.

Hell is not a fun place.

The materials used to create the forbidden shackles came from the edict.

"Don't be sad, the edict has always been under my personal control, and I have been in and out no less than 10,000 times, and the familiar ones are like home."

Dou Tianyuan smiled lightly, "It's a big deal, wait for you to get ahead and come back to catch me." ”

"Uh...... That's it. ”

Xu Chong touched his nose and relaxed a little.

"Besides."

Dou Tianyuan winked at Xu Chong, "What if you can really kill that Xie Changqing?" ”
