This guy has been doing evil in Shangzhou for nearly ten years, and he has been at large, and the most important reason is that he will judge the situation and turn around and flee when he sees that the situation is not right.

But he met a disciple of Fuhu Mountain this time, so naturally he would not be given this opportunity.

Yan Fang waved the folding fan in his hand lightly, and in an instant, dozens of water snakes pounced towards Tao Qianyan, this folding fan was not the one that Yan Fang bought for ten cents at the stall in Yuezhou City, but a magic weapon exchanged for thirty contribution points in the small treasure pavilion.

Seeing that the situation was not right, this guy immediately took out a scarlet short knife from his arms and used it to cut his fingers, this short knife soaked in blood and burst out with a strange blood light, and cut off several water snakes in an instant.

Yan Fang was a little surprised when he saw this, he didn't expect that this villain really had some means, but he didn't panic, and he didn't waste half a year. Twisting his fingers, dozens of water snakes converged into a water Jiao, and the huge dragon tail instantly entangled Tao Qianyu.

This guy is still stubbornly resisting, holding a bloody knife, desperately slashing the dragon's tail, but the knife is drawn to cut off the water and the water is more flowing, no matter whether he slashes horizontally or vertically, it doesn't help, but the short knife in his hand was shaken off by the fierce water flow and bounced to the side. After another cup of tea, the peach could no longer earn and fainted.

A jet-black rope flew out of Mo Sisi's hand, tying up the Jiangyang thief who had been doing evil in the Shangzhou realm for nearly ten years into a zongzi.

Shang Ho Street

"Yan Fang, let's hand over this peach thousand deaths to the Shangzhou Prefecture and it's over. Mo Sisi asked.

"Well, our task is to arrest him, and the local yamen will deal with the next matter, and besides, the master just now also stamped us with a big seal, and with this big seal, we can go to Tianji Pavilion to restore our lives. Yan Fang replied.

"Well, there are no clues for the other tasks for the time being, let's find a place to fill our stomachs first, I was patronizing the thief just now, and the perch just served didn't have time to eat a chopstick. Mo Sisi said with a look of pity.

"Then let's go back to Yuelai Lou for another meal. Yan Fang was also a little hungry.

"Okay!"

....

....

Time is like water, and in the blink of an eye, Mo Sisi and Yan Fang have been in Shangzhou City for half a month, and in this half month, the two have completed four tasks promulgated by the Tianji Pavilion, in addition to capturing Tao Qianxian, they also cooperated with the officers and soldiers to exterminate two bandit dens and catch a black snake that has become a jing.

The tasks promulgated by the Heavenly Machine Pavilion of Fuhu Mountain are mostly mundane, and they seem a little inexplicable. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the cultivators of the top cultivation sects are all dedicated to cultivation and do not care about mundane things.

Some of the other great cults of cultivation in Great Chu, such as the Qinchuan Sword Sect, and the cultivators of Beihemen are indeed like this, and rarely interfere in secular and imperial affairs.

But Fuhu Mountain is different, on the day when Da Chu was first established, Fuhu Mountain stood with the Great Chu royal family. In other words, it was with the great help of Patriarch Chen that Zhao Wulie, the founding emperor of Great Chu, ended the era of division and unified the world.

Because of this relationship, many of the disciples of Fuhu Mountain in the past dynasties have joined the army or joined the special organization of the imperial court, and the disciples of Fuhu Mountain who die in the border state every year are also the most among all the major sects of cultivation.

With the qualifications of the disciples of Fuhu Mountain, if they can practice steadily all the way, there are eight adults who can break through to the Bitter Sea Realm, but there are only a few hundred masters of the Bitter Sea Realm in each generation, and the reason is that there are many geniuses from Fuhu Mountain who have not broken through to the Bitter Sea Realm and have fallen in advance.

It is precisely because of this that Fuhu Mountain's status in the hearts of the military and people of Great Chu is not comparable to other top sects.

...

Having said that, Yan Fang and Mo Sisi, who had already completed four tasks, were now sitting in the largest teahouse in Shangzhou City drinking tea.

This knows that the teahouse was built by a businessman from the capital 20 years ago, and it has developed to the present, it is not only the largest teahouse in Shangzhou City, but also the most famous place where the three religions and nine streams gather in Shangzhou City.

In terms of the degree of understanding of all kinds of Jianghu news and rumors in the Shangzhou territory, any small guy who does chores in this teahouse knows more than the master in the state government.

When Yan Fang and Mo Sisi came here for tea, they naturally wanted to inquire about some information about the next mission.

This next task was even trickier than the previous four combined, so the two of them also put this task to the end.

As for why it's tricky, the reason is that it involves the barbarians in the million barbarian territory south of Great Chu. As everyone knows, the barbarians and the Great Chu have been at odds for a hundred years. Except for Yunzhou, which borders with millions of barbarian frontiers, it is rare to see the shadow of barbarians in other states and counties.

However, in the western suburbs of Shangzhou City, several recent cases of merchants being killed were related to barbarians.

More than half a month ago, after receiving the report, the Shangzhou Prefecture Government sent people to the scene of the crime to see it, and several experienced servants agreed that several of the victims who were thrown into the field were killed by witchcraft. And the sects in the territory of Great Chu, whether good or evil, practice Taoism, and all the people in the world practice witchcraft are the barbarians who live in millions of barbarian territories.

When it comes to barbarians, the stakes are high. The Shangzhou Prefecture did not dare to conceal the matter and immediately reported it, and after hearing the news, the imperial court sent the Pingban Division to investigate. Several top sects in the vicinity were also notified, hoping to send someone to assist in this matter.

It is also because of this that the task about this case will appear on the list of Tianji Pavilion, and the task is only required to assist in the investigation, after all, if this matter is investigated by Shunteng, it will definitely not be something that the two Condensation Realm disciples can handle.

After drinking tea for three days in the private seat on the second floor of the teahouse, the two finally heard some news about the case.

"Brother, I heard you've seen the monsters that murdered in that Yaque Ridge?" asked a thin man dressed as a monkey-like scholar.

The fat man in a brocade robe who was at the same table with him shuddered when he heard this, hesitated again and again, and said: "That day, I went to Pingcheng with the shopkeeper Zhao of Zhaojiabu Village in Nancheng to buy goods.

As soon as I sat down, I was a little anxious to pee, so I found a remote place to pee, and when I came back, I saw a monster standing under the big tree where we were resting, with a green face and fangs, so frightened that my legs were weak, and I hurriedly lay down in the grass, and did not dare to move.

When the monster walked for half an hour, he dared to go over, and saw that the shopkeeper Zhao fell under the tree, and he was already dead, and he was not dead, and the whole thing was covered with skin and bones. ”

The fat man in the brocade robe seemed to have palpitations, and his thumb with a golden wrench kept shaking, and even half of the tea in the teacup was spilled.

The thin monkey scholar was also frightened after hearing this, and it took a while to calm down, and he said comfortingly: "I heard that the imperial court has sent the Ping Barbarian Division to investigate this matter, and several monks from the big factions have also gathered in Shangzhou City in the past few days, and the monster will not be able to get away for a few days." ”

The fat man in the brocade robe nodded in agreement when he heard this, and raised his teacup to drink a little to suppress the shock. But as soon as I poured a cup into my stomach, I spit it out with yesterday's rancid water.

A pair of frog eyes stared at the table of people sitting on the side of the stairs, their faces full of horror.

The thin monkey scholar spit out the tea that squirted out, his stomach was full of depression, and he asked with a little anger: "Brother Hu, are you evil?"

The fat man surnamed Hu didn't seem to hear it, and muttered, "It's the same as what the monster wore that day." ”

The thin monkey scholar heard the prestige. I saw four people sitting at the table, an old man, two young men, and a young girl. Dressed like a Da Chu person.

This thin monkey scholar is also well-read, and looked at the people at the table and said with some confusion: "Look at the clothes of these people who seem to be from the southern Xinjiang." ”

Then he looked horrified. "It is rumored that the monster is witchcraft, and it is inseparable from the barbarians, and Brother Hu said that the monster is dressed the same as these people, and it is not possible that these people are still the accomplices of the monster. ”

The more the thin monkey scholar thought about it, the more he felt that his hairs stood up, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept flowing down his pale skin. The same is true for the fat man in the brocade robe opposite, after a while, the brocade robe on his body is wet as if he has just been fished out of the water.

The frightened two looked at each other and left the second floor as if they were fleeing.

The barbarian woman with a red feather on her head looked at the two people who fled from the second floor of the teahouse in a hurry, and laughed softly: "These Great Chu people are really cowardly. ”

It turned out that the conversation between the thin monkey scholar and the fat man in the gorgeous robe just now was all heard by them.

The leading barbarian old man stared at the girl sternly, and reproached: "Honghu, this is Da Chu, not Southern Xinjiang, take care of your mouth, if something happens, I can't protect you." ”

The barbarian woman called Honghu lowered her head when she heard this, biting her lip, and seemed to be a little unconvinced.

Seeing this, the rugged man in animal skin on the side made a round: "Master, Senior Sister didn't mean it, don't worry about her, but the monster that the two Great Chu people talked about just now, could it be Senior Brother Ji?"
