Chapter 388: Self-interest and righteousness

"Because the top of the sect never cared about this!"

Li Chengwen looked at Yun Muzhi and sneered: "A big demon eats people in a remote village, we came over and killed the big demon, and saved all the villagers who could be saved...... Then it was over, and for the Tianyuan Dao Sect, this matter was successfully resolved!

After we solve the task, we will go back to the sect to receive the reward, and the three of us will be promoted to our position, and you will forgive you for your original crimes...... At this point, for us, the matter is settled.

The whole thing is as simple as that!

There is no need to track down any hidden secrets, the high-level leaders of the Dao Sect are not interested in caring about these at all! ”

In the end, Li Chengwen looked at Yun Muzhi and became more and more displeased, "And what are you pretending to be high, Yun Muzhi?" Do you really think that you are a chivalrous man who slays demons and destroys demons without asking for anything in return? To put it bluntly, didn't you come here to forgive your sins? What are you pretending to! ”

"There is no conflict between the pursuit of righteousness and self-interest at the same time."

Yun Muzhi looked at Li Chengwen and said calmly: "Indeed, I want to complete the pardon mission, I want to return to the sect, so I followed Elder Jiang's order and came to Qingshui Village to investigate the incident here with you, this is no problem, you are not wrong."

In addition to that, I also want to avenge the tragic death of the villagers here, so that the real murderer can be ambushed, and there is no problem with this, because the two purposes do not conflict at all!

As for you?

Li Chengwen, the Tao is not the same, if you think that the incident here has been resolved, then please leave.

Senior Brother Zhang too, the two of you can take Senior Sister Shangguan and leave.

What I, Yun Muzhi, am going to do next, I don't need your help, I won't drag you into the water, and naturally I don't need you to point out. ”

With that, Yun Muzhi turned around and stood with his hands in his hands.

"Stupid."

Li Chengwen shook his head, too lazy to deal with him anymore.

"Oh, there's more."

Yun Muzhi seemed to have thought of something, and said again: "Li Chengwen, if you don't want to talk about morality, then talk about reality, I don't know how Elder Jiang told the three of you before I came out, but Elder Jiang emphasized in the letter to me that this mission is to investigate and solve the matter of the Qingshui Mountain Range."

Focus, investigate, and solve, the matter of the Qingshui Mountains.

Suppose that killing that Seven Realms Demon Cat is not a complete solution at all?

I'm sorry, I'm not in the same situation as you, your failure in this mission is at most a promotion in vain, and if you stay up for more than ten or twenty years, the next promotion opportunity will be specified, but what about me? If I fail this pardon mission, then there will be no next chance, and I will not be able to return to the sect for the rest of my life!

If it is because of this, after I go back to the sect, I am told by Elder Jiang that the pardon task is not qualified, and I am not allowed to pardon crimes, and I miss this once-in-a-lifetime pardon opportunity, then who should I cry to then?! ”

"Huh?!"

As soon as these words came out, Li Chengwen's face suddenly changed.

Get promoted!

He, Zhang Shi, and Shangguan Xue are all members of the Law Enforcement Palace, and as long as the mission of Qingshui Village is successful, then the three of them can be promoted to the "deacons" of the Law Enforcement Palace.

Once they became the deacons of the Law Enforcement Hall, the three of them would be able to enjoy better treatment and get more cultivation resources.

After all, the three of them were not the top cultivation geniuses in the world like Yun Muzhi and Daozi, and if they wanted to advance to the Eighth Realm, they had to rely on a large number of pills and a large number of cultivation resources to pile up, so that there was a slight possibility of breakthrough.

However, what Yun Muzhi said just now was too easy.

Yun Muzhi had never been to the Law Enforcement Hall to work, and he didn't know anything about the Law Enforcement Palace.

Li Chengwen's promotion opportunity this time is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, once you miss it, let alone stay up for another ten or twenty years, even if you stay up for another one or two hundred years, it is estimated that it will not come again!

So, there's no time to lose.

For Li Chengwen, Zhang Shi, and Shangguan Xue, the task of Qingshui Village is equally important, and it must not fail!

“……”

Qi Lin, Irena, and Catherine next to them looked at each other, all with solemn expressions.

If Yun Muzhi failed this pardon mission and couldn't return to the sect, then it would be much more difficult for them to enter Taixuan Mountain, and the whole thing would become very troublesome!

Originally, things were simple.

Yun Muzhi returns to the sect - clears up the grievances of six years ago - overthrows the Daozi - becomes the new Daozi - helps persuade the sect elders as the new Daozi - takes them into Taixuan Mountain to find the teleportation array - returns to the Blue Star Federation in the teleportation array.

However, the premise of all this is that Yun Muzhi can return to the sect.

"Cloud Dao Chief, what can I do to help you?"

Thinking of this, Qi Lin walked to Yun Muzhi's side and asked seriously.

"I need to review all the clues I've gotten so far."

Yun Muzhi looked at Qi Lin, frowned, and said to him with the method of sound transmission: "That's it, Brother Qi, now I'm talking, you are listening, if you listen to what you think, you can say it and give me a reference." ”

"Well, here you go." Qi Lin nodded.

"First of all, I suspect that Chen Hui is not dead at all!"

Yun Muzhi continued to transmit his voice, and the first sentence at the beginning made Qi Lin's eyes condense slightly: "I think that the participants in this disaster in Qingshui Village may not only be a demon cat of the Seven Realms, nor just a village chief who has lost his humanity to save his son, or maybe there is also a cultivator with ill intentions involved!"

Recall that the cause and source of the whole incident was actually the bizarre and violent death of Chen Hui, the master of Qingshui Mountain.

At first, I thought that the demon cat and Zhou Daming teamed up to set a trap and kill Chen Hui...... But now, the demon cat is dead, Zhou Daming is dead, but I feel more and more that something is wrong. ”

"Why?"

Qi Lin said curiously.

"Intuition!"

Yun Muyi said with a serious face.

"Forehead ......"

Qi Lin was slightly speechless.

"Well, in addition to intuition, there are actually two factual factors." Yun Muzhi continued, "The first point is the resentful corpse in the tree cave at the beginning! Brother Qi, do you remember, when we first entered the Qingshui Mountain Range, we happened to encounter the man's resentful corpse that was stuffed into the hollow of the banyan tree, and that guy was still in a state of froze.

And stiffness requires conditions.

At that time, I didn't think much about it, and thought that it was the slaughter of Qingshui Village, and the strong resentment and yin qi of the villagers changed the environment of the Qingshui Mountain Range, making the 'unconvinced' man dry up and stiffen in anger.

But now it seems that it is not right.

Doesn't make sense.

Because of the topography. ”

When Yun Muzhi said this, he turned around, pointed to a hillside at the back of the village, and continued to say to Qi Lin: "Brother Qi, you see, this high and uplifted hillside behind Qingshui Village is equivalent to a barrier, dividing the Qingshui Mountain Range into two.

Shimizu Village is in the east.

And the hole in the tree where the corpse was located was in the west.

Under normal circumstances, no matter how heavy the grievances of the undead in Qingshui Village were, they would not cross the terrain barrier and cross the mountains to the west, but would naturally flow to the eastern area without the obstruction of the hillside.

This is determined by the nature of yin qi and resentment, and it will not change.

But now the situation is ......"

"Hum—"

Yun Muzhi said, closed his eyes, twisted his left hand, the golden light was filled, and his fingers wiped his eyelids.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes had turned golden.

"Qi Seeking?!"

Seeing this behind his back, Zhang Shi was suddenly shocked!

"You actually know how to look at qi?!"

Seeing this scene, Li Chengwen was also surprised, "Why do you hide everything!" ”

“……”

Qi Lin recalled Li Haoran's memory.

According to the information that Li Haoran discovered in the Yuanqi Realm ten years ago, there were less than a hundred Qi refiners in the entire Yuanqi Realm who had mastered the Qi Hope Technique on the bright side.

Beginners in the art of looking at qi, you can observe things such as aura, yang, yin, resentment, and so on.

If the Qi Technique is completed, it is even more likely to directly observe the direction of the fortune of heaven and earth.

"Acting against common sense......

At this time, in the eyes of Yun Muzhi, who had opened the Qi Hope Technique, a large area of purple-black mist was constantly converging from the sky above Qingshui Village, and then, as if it had received some kind of guidance, it slowly climbed over the hillside and floated towards the west of the Qingshui Mountain Range.

Those purple-black mist were an aggregate of resentment and yin.

"What do you see?"

Qi Lin asked towards Yun Muzhi.

"Resentment is flowing." Yun Muzhi said, "I saw that at this moment, the resentment and yin qi of the slaughtered villagers in Qingshui Village actually crossed the hillside unreasonably, crossed the mountains and mountains, and flowed to the west of the mountain range, which is the area where the original tree cave resentment corpses were located. ”

"What does that mean?" Qi Lin continued to ask.

"It means that someone is raising corpses!" Yun Muzhi shouted in a deep voice, "There are powerful qi refiners nearby who have set up formations, deliberately mobilizing resentment and yin qi, and carrying out the act of raising corpses with the anger of people and gods!" ”
