Chapter 90 The earth shakes the sky and the clouds, and the ghosts return to the sun
"Found it, found it. The murderer has been found!"
The streets beat gongs and drums, and a group of arresters pushed prisoner carts across the official road. Residents kept throwing rotten eggs and rotten vegetable leaves into it.
"So, your idea is to make up a murderer, explain the rumors?"
In the private room of a restaurant in Dongyao City, Ren Hong, who alias "Changqingzi", is inviting Qiuyu to eat wine.
Qiu Yu looked at the prisoners marching through the streets below. Although his mana is sealed, his eyesight is still there. That guy down there, it looks like a monk is pretending to be somebody?
"If you want to eradicate the weird, one is to solve the rumors, and the other is to destroy the evidence. At present, we have no basis to rely on, so we can only start with rumors and use this strategy to appease the people for the time being. ”
It has been three days since Ren Hong confiscated the beauty picture. In the past three days, the Li Mansion first sent someone to donate one hundred taels of snowflake silver. In addition, Li Fan himself sent someone to make up for fifty taels. After all, Yuxi's incident made him feel palpitations, and he was even more convinced of Ren Hong, the "little fairy chief".
Then the suggestion put forward by Ren Hong was approved by Lord Xu Guan and the government, and this scene was jointly staged.
And Ren Hong counted the time and invited Qiuyu out for dinner today.
Qiu Yu looked down and said with a smile: "I have also investigated that weirdness in private, but I don't think that this method can resolve the weirdness." ”
"Yes, Ben didn't expect this to succeed. As we spread the news that the murderer has been caught, the culprits behind the scenes will surely act. ”
Silence of rumors means that the power of weird acquisition is weakened. In order to prevent this, the people behind the scenes will definitely continue to increase the rumors, insisting that the murderer caught by the government is fake.
And what Ren Hong and they have to do is to observe the restaurants and teahouses everywhere, looking for these people who chew the root of their tongues, so as to find the people behind the scenes.
Only by finding the person behind the scenes can you destroy the weird core dependence.
"So, nominally inviting me to drink, but in essence, it is to investigate the case?" Qiu Yu smiled: "Then the table in front of you, will you go back to the government for reimbursement?"
Dongjiao City is an inland city, but Ren Hong ordered a table of sea vegetables. What is the soup of yellow croaker, anchovy shark fin, Sifu sea cucumber...... One is more expensive than the other.
"The government asked us monks to help investigate the case, but they gave a lot of silver taels. But ......"
What are the few taels of silver given by the government enough for?
Ren Hong: "This is my reward for catching demons for the past few days." ”
Compared with the meager salary of the government, these monks go out to work, and they are dozens of taels of silver when they go out, and those big families are not short of money.
"So this time, it's me who hired seniors out of my own pocket. The main thing I also want to ask, do you know the details of the Heart-Eater Red Coat?"
"This matter has been going through ups and downs for a year, and I have privately checked it myself. "Qiuyu's mana is all sealed, and he doesn't even have much to do with Xuanduguan. Lord Xu Guan only knew that he had been trained in the human world, but he didn't know the specific situation. Therefore, regarding the matter of the heart-devouring red clothes, Qiu Yu did not communicate with Xuandu Guan, and secretly investigated by himself.
"The original case should have been just an accident. I secretly looked at the government records, it was a vendetta. The government finalized several suspects, but just as they were preparing to search, a second case occurred. But at the time of this case, these people were under the surveillance of the arresters. ”
That is, all with alibi?
Ren Hong immediately asked: "Maybe someone falsified the evidence? If the arresters were eyewitnesses, would they be bribed? Even if the arresters were not bought, they could still create a false impression and use them to create alibis?"
I thought so too, but afterwards I deduced it with innate calculations. The second homicide had nothing to do with them. Soon after, a third case occurred. The three victims had no contact with each other, and could even be said to have never known each other. Because the third person is a businessman who came from out of town. ”
It was the merchant's entourage who went to report to the official that made the matter bigger and caused a storm in the city. Later, the government continued to investigate under pressure, but the three suspects initially circled died one after another. At this point, the clue is completely lost. ”
After that, there are rumors about the heart-eating red. There are believers, and there are unbelievers.
After Ren Hong understood, he thought silently.
At this time, Qiu Yu said again: "Regarding the so-called people behind the scenes, I do have a suspicion."
"Who?"
"Demon Cult. Qiu Yu said a word lightly, which shocked Ren Hong's heart.
"Seniors are saying that the Demon Sect is making a comeback?"
"Never left, why talk about starting over? It is true that the Demon Sect's Demon Lord Giants escaped into the Eight Directions Wilderness one by one because they avoided the truth of the Xuanmen, but their disciples and grandchildren stayed in the world and passed on the Dao system with the method of concealment. There are even some demons who have infiltrated the dynasty and disrupted the dynasty. ”
"I suspect that this weirdness is the temptation of the Demon Sect, to test whether the reaction ability of the Xuandu Temple can be solved in time. And if you can't solve ......"
The Demon Sect is pervasive, and now only a few dozen people have died. When he realized that the Xuandu Temple was not as strong as he imagined, it was not dozens or hundreds of people who died at that time, but tens of thousands of living beings who died in the Demon Sect.
"Of course, this is just my guess. Qiu Yu twisted his beard and smiled: "Maybe it's just a coincidence." ”
Seeing that the face of "Changqingzi" was getting more and more ugly, Qiu Yu no longer scared this poor little loose cultivator. He changed the subject: "Don't talk about this, what's the situation over there?" Ten phoenix girls, how are you looking?"
"Only nine were found. ”
Ren Hong told the nine women, including the girl of the Zhang family, one by one, and Qiu Yu's brows moved: "You haven't been to the Zhang family?"
The young man looked dazed: "I'm not related to them, what are I going to do at Zhang's house?"
"The Zhang family has a ritual today, and I think that you had a relationship with their mother and daughter, and maybe you will participate. ”
"It's just a matter of doing a favor, why bother to do this as a favor and mix it with their family's rituals?"
The Zhang family is doing things today, and Ren Hong also knows it. It was Pu Chun Lao Dao who took over this task and calculated that today is an auspicious time for the zodiac, which is suitable for ancestor worship and rituals.
Seeing that "Changqingzi" didn't hear his hint, Qiu Yu simply shut up.
Just then, there was a sudden commotion in the streets. At the gate of the city, a servant rode up and shouted.
"Not good...... Go out...... Something is wrong! The ground is moving on the other side of the grave mountain!"
As soon as these words came out, the residents of the city were in an uproar.
Ren Hong and Qiu Yu also looked solemn and looked in the direction of the tomb mountain.
"Tomb Mountain" is a continuous mound under the mountain, because the ancestral graves of the people of Dongyao City are all located here, and it is also called the tomb mountain.
The person who reported the news was the manager of Zhang's Mansion, and when he returned to the city, he happened to see the murderer escorted by the arrester, so he went up and grabbed the arrester, and said eagerly: "Hurry, the official will go to the tomb to save people." Our lord, lady, son, and girl are all over there!"
Zhang's house did things for the old lady today, and the family rushed to the grave mountain to worship their ancestors. Unexpectedly, the grave mountain moved, the yin qi burst out, and a group of people were all trapped there.
Not only the Zhang family, but also the team that went to the grave to sweep the grave or dig a pit into the soil today...... In short, none of the people on the grave hill escaped.
When they heard this, the people of the city could not sit still. I don't have many friends and relatives. Even if it is not the turn of your own family to worship your ancestors and bury people, you can help yourself, and there are always a few people who go to the party, right?
Now that the tomb mountain has fallen into more than 100 people, how many families are involved?
As soon as he heard the news, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurried back to report to the government.
And Qiu Yu and Ren Hong sat in the restaurant, silently performing easy counting.
The so-called "earth movement" of mortals is nothing more than an earthquake. But in the eyes of Qiu Yu and Ren Hong, the sky above the tomb mountain was cloudy and vicious, and it was obvious that extraordinary power was involved.
Qiu Yu: "I seal the mana, it's not easy to come forward in this matter." But after calculation, it is vaguely related to the secluded world. There must be news from the Xuandu Temple, you can go over there to find out. ”
"I've saved it. After Ren Hong checked out, he hurried back to Xuandu Temple.
At this time, the door of the Xuandu Temple was wide open, and Lord Xu Guan rang the jade bell to invite all the monks to gather together.
The Guan Lord's expression was solemn: "Everyone, there is a Yin ghost born in the tomb mountain, and I want to lead the army into the yang." Park Chun Daoyou is trapped in the tomb mountain, and at this time it is in danger. ”
Pu Chun went out early this morning, thinking that he could easily get a reward from Zhang's mansion. I didn't know that the tomb mountain encountered a yin ghost returning to the yang, and hurriedly spread the news to Xuanduguan.
Xu Guan noticed that something was wrong, and immediately called everyone to rush to the rescue.
"I will hang up the task in the Xuandu Temple in this matter, and count it as your good deeds. In addition, each person will be given ten Feixia Pills, and the injuries caused by this operation will be treated free of charge by our faction. ”
"Good deeds?" Ren Hong frowned and turned his head to look at the others. Including Kunlun Second Elementary School, everyone was also surprised.
Lei Lingzi: "How many good deeds does Senior Brother Xu have to set?"
"This trip is extremely harmful. I want to make a thousand good deeds, and this matter has been reported to the government department. ”
The theory of good deeds is a system set by the Xuandu Palace to encourage "monks to enter the WTO".
When many of the tasks that come out of the Xuandu Temple are settled, they will additionally calculate the merits. For example, Ren Hong inadvertently confiscated two pictures of beauties, and recorded them as fifty good deeds in the Xuandu Temple. There is also going to Li Mansion to clean up, although this matter is a farce, but Xuanduguan also gave two points of good deeds according to the task judgment.
These good deeds can be accumulated and can be exchanged for the elixirs listed in the Xuandu Temple.
Among them, there is a "Dragon and Tiger Dao Dan", marked with 10,000 good deeds. This Dragon and Tiger Dao Pill has only one function, to help the True Fire Realm cultivators successfully condense the Golden Pill and turn the Pill into five grades.
"A thousand good deeds?" Yan Li and the other monks showed their expressions of interest after hearing this.
Xuanduguan is all-inclusive of after-the-fact healing, as long as he doesn't die on the spot, isn't this a thousand good deeds for nothing?
Lei Lingzi and Fu Shubao looked at each other and were silent.
Only when you truly enter the world can you feel the influence of Xuandu Temple on Xuanmen Immortal Dao.
Lei Lingzi said secretly: Our faction occupies the central heavenly pillar, boasts of being the Dragon Court of Wanshan, is in charge of the Purple Pole Divine Map, and is the leader of the Xuanmen. But we relied on the deterrent power of eighteen Dao Monarchs and hundreds of real people. And the practice of Xuandu in the first vein is to win over the monks by moisturizing things silently, and to include the monks in the circle they delineate.
Those tasks that can obtain good merit points are either purification in the world, rituals, or subduing demons and eliminating demons, and calming ghosts. In short, it is a core, maintaining humanitarian stability and maintaining peace in the world. In the evaluation of the Xuandu Temple, you will be recorded for good deeds, which can be exchanged for pills.
Although it seems that Xuandu Palace is sending pills to outsiders at a loss. However, maintaining the order of the whole world and making the monks from all walks of life obey the system of the Xuandu Concept is also a means of gathering momentum.
Therefore, Xuandu morality penetrates into the hearts of every Xuanmen disciple in an invisible way.
Even if Lei Lingzi saw the Xuandu Palace's practices, a thousand good deeds were also very exciting to him. You must know that on the list of good deeds in Xuandu Palace, there is a blind "Shenxiao Five Lei Dan", which is worth 20,000 good deeds. It is condensed by the essence of heavenly thunder, which can help the Thunder Dao monks practice the law.
Even Ren Hong's heart was pounding, and there was a "Yi Fetus Returning Heavenly Pill" worth 30,000 good deeds in the list of good deeds. This pill has only one effect, which can change its own Dao physique.
That is, if there is this pill in. Even an ordinary mortal can instantly possess the Five Elements Dao Body or the Pure Yang Dao Body, and of course, the Kan Yuan Dao Body can also be transformed.
