The rivers and lakes are the pawns of the peddlers, the heroes are the black who eat the black, rob the rich and help the poor, and help themselves first, the good and the evil, right and wrong in this world, sometimes it is difficult to distinguish.

He felt that he was not a decent person, his grievances with Lingrune Dao were actually caused by personal grudges, Zhou Xiucheng's grandson bullied others and smashed his stall, so he also bullied others, relying on his own cultivation to be higher, killing people and setting fires, stealing treasures, and throwing sick Gu.

Subsequently, the cause and effect of this matter implicated Zhou Xiucheng and Lu Zhengling, who was traveling with Zhou Xiucheng.

Therefore, tracing back to the source, it was just a personal grudge, and his actions were no different from the evil demon path, committing the murder and robbery of cultivators.

His murderous intent is so heavy, and he even angers the entire Spirit Rune Dao, in fact, the reason is very simple, because the Spirit Rune Dao is a demon, and he is not a good person, and there is no psychological burden when he kills, but there is a sense of upholding justice.

As for Zhou Xiucheng, as an elder, regardless of the behavior of his subordinates, he was implicated by the cause and effect of his subordinates, while Lu Zhengling had an unfortunate friendship and was implicated by the cause and effect of his Taoist friends.

This is the rivers and lakes, fighting, killing, and grudges.

However, the spirit rune is a demon, although they are not good people, but there is a wrong, there is a debt, many people in the spirit rune road are not guilty to death, he wants to destroy the spirit rune road, not kill all the spirit rune dao, he only kills the leader of the spirit rune road.

The people under the spirit rune path are left to their own devices, and they have their own cause and effect.

Maybe it's because he sees it through, he doesn't give himself the banner of decency anymore, it's right and evil, he doesn't care anymore, just follow his heart, look pleasing to the eye, that's all.

The ancients said that those who kill people will always kill them.

Maybe one day, he will also be killed by others under the banner of decency, he already has this awareness, he doesn't blame anyone, he doesn't hate anyone, cause also, effect also.

He suddenly thought of the Immortal King Sect Master, he agreed with Xuantian King's statement, the Sect Master cultivated to become a true god, but was besieged by everyone, and finally chose to let go, the true God is not wrong, and everyone is not wrong, but the contradictions between the two sides are irreconcilable, cause and effect.

The Xuantian King has resentment, because the Xuantian King has not yet seen through cause and effect.

The thoughts in my heart flowed, and my steps were brisk, and I had arrived in front of the gate of Peicheng.

For 20 years, the scene of this city gate has not changed vaguely, the city tower is covered with rune paper, inserted with Taoist flags, burning incense and playing music, smoky, dozens of Taoist people practice, hundreds of Taoist soldiers protect the law and guard, holding bells and peach wood swords, praying for good luck and good weather.

Downstairs in the city, all the dignitaries and wealthy people knelt down to worship, and there were many ragged beggars of the victims, waiting for the soup soup after the practice.

The difference is that there were not so many people from the big government who knelt down to worship back then, there were not so many begging victims, and there were no caravans waiting to enter the city outside the city.

He flew from the sky, and he had already seen the situation in this area, the famine for many years, the people were in exile, ten rooms and nine empty, and the city was depressed, just like a ghost town.

The spirit rune will call for the wind and rain, control the wind and rain in this area, and start a business of selling water and rain, giving money and it will rain, and if there is no money, there will be no rain, and the people will be squeezed dry, selling land, selling children, dying and fleeing.

Lingrune Dao collects money, also scrapes land, and also buys and sells people, and the small half of the land in this area has become the private property of Lingrune Dao, and most of the people have become tenant farmers and long-term laborers of Lingrune Dao.

The remaining more than half of the land was occupied by the dignitaries and magnates, who raised private soldiers and were lined with gate lords.

He couldn't help but think of the Yin Sect, which was also this exploiting routine, in fact, the Buddhism of the year was similar to this, land, wealth, and population were eventually annexed to Guanyu and various gate valves, all of whom were big landlords.

Later, the world was in turmoil, and you attacked and fought between the gate valves, and the Buddhist Guanyu was also burned and looted.

He waited for a while, and in the evening, when it was dark, the practice on the upper floor of the city was over, and the Taoist and Taoist protectors called it a day, carrying a box of incense money back, and the dignitaries and rich people saluted and sent them off.

Now in this world, the Taoist sect with the edict is a master, and the ordinary officials and rich people have to stay behind, and after sending the spirit rune to leave, these high-ranking officials and rich people go home, and then the soup porridge begins, and the victims come forward to drink the porridge.

Next to the porridge, there were several teams of people who looked like family members, who came forward to solicit the victims, and those with their children asked if they wanted to sell their children, and those who were young and strong asked if they wanted to find a job with enough to eat, or to do long-term work, or to be a family member and a soldier, and if they were full of food, they just had no wages, and as for the old and weak women and children, they flocked to them and waved them away.

This soup kitchen has become a means of gathering the victims.

When Zhang Xian saw this scene, he had to sigh secretly, back then, only Emperor Qianxian Daxing Immortal Dao, now it is Emperor Yang Daxing Immortal Dao, Emperor Qianxian is still collecting treasures far away overseas, it can be said that the two Immortal Emperors shot together.

"That's it, that's it, let's go to the city. ”

He walked over, and the bell on the "jingle bell" banner rang.

The officers and soldiers guarding the city gate saw a Taoist enter the city, and he looked like a warlock, but now in this world, the existence of a Taoist person, this is absolutely not to be offended, for fear that it is a living immortal of a certain Taoist sect, if it is offended, how to die does not know.

The leader of the officers and soldiers hurriedly stepped forward, saluted respectfully, and said, "This gentleman, may I ask what you are doing when you enter the city, do you have any documents?"

Zhang Xian said: "I am a wandering cultivator, and there is no way. ”

After speaking, Zhang Xian went straight forward and walked into the city gate, without saying much.

The officers and soldiers immediately frowned, a trace of evil flashed in their eyes, he was kind to ask, but this person was so rude, did he think that anyone could enter this Peicheng.

This is the realm of the Spirit Rune Dao, and all the Daoists who come and go must be checked clearly.

The little leader pressed the knife on his waist, and was about to step forward to block Zhang Xian, but as soon as this thought was lifted, he had not yet stepped away, only to see this person walk over, and his eyes flickered, the burly and tall figure, like the statue of the god in the sky, majestic and solemn, so that people did not dare to look directly, the little leader was so frightened that his legs were weak, he stepped back, did not stand firm under his feet, and stumbled and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, several officers and soldiers next to them didn't understand what was going on, so they hurriedly went to help the leading eldest brother.

The little leader came back to his senses at this time, and when he saw that the Taoist had already walked over, he didn't dare to chase after him, and said with a frightened face: "This Taoist is so weird, go and tell the commander and the spirit rune Dao." ”

The captain was in the city tower, and the spirit rune road had not gone far, the officers and soldiers immediately went to pray, and after a while, a team of people came out of the city tower, and the people of the spirit rune road also returned, and searched around, but there was no trace of the Taoist.

The people of the Spirit Rune Dao were furious, and directly gave Du Wei a mouthful, and even let the Daoist of unknown origin enter the city, if they offended the distinguished guests of other sects, how could they bear the blame.

Of course, if it weren't for the guests of other sects, they would dare to come to the realm of the Spirit Rune Dao to make money, let alone make money, even if they passed by, they would be killed directly, how could they be put into the city.

The lieutenant was beaten in the mouth, and his heart was also full of fire, and he had to make a low noise and smile, turned around and beat the little leader, immediately reported the matter, and took someone to search.

Zhang Xian has already walked away, but he is looking at this side from afar, the style of the Spirit Rune Dao is still as strong as ever, but it is normal, it has been strong for many years, and it should become a habit.

What's more, now this Peicheng is no longer an open city, the streets are closed, ten rooms and nine empty, and it has also become a private city of Lingrune Dao and various gates, and there are no ordinary merchants, only some places for high-ranking officials and rich people to eat, drink and have fun.

Because without the people, there will naturally be no ordinary merchants.

He came to the inn where he had settled before, and after twenty years, things had long been different, and the inn had become a green building, which was lively at this time.

In front of the Qinglou, the official sedan chair is arranged, in the Qinglou, the sons and brothers of the gate valve family gather, accompanied by the singer women, the vassal elegance, the chanting of poetry and drinking, and the Taoist refining of the spirit rune road, wisps of medicinal herb smoke fluttering, in the black smoke miasma, drink and ascend to immortals, take the elixir, men and women are intoxicated, laughter and laughter, glamorous like illusion, happy like a fairy.

Zhang Xian smelled the smell of smoke from afar, and it turned out to be the immortal water he left back then, which was not only boiled and drunk, but also used to burn cigarettes, and derived a lot of novel ways to eat.

In addition, the elixir taken is actually a medicine, the scientific name is cold food pill, originally to dispel the cold in the body, with wine to eat, wine belongs to fire, with fire to drive away cold, the whole body is hot, sweating, cold and heat meet, sweat evaporates into white gas, giving people the feeling of fairy energy, and after getting drunk, there are hallucinations, fluttering like immortals, so it is mistaken for an elixir.

In the previous dynasties, this thing was popular among high-ranking officials and nobles, but in fact, this cold food pill was highly poisonous.

The dignitaries and magnates in this area are almost obsessed with taking medicine and pills, and after eating, they indulge in hallucinations and do things for men and women.

He walked around the street a few times, almost all of them were like this, and the whole city was indulged in fairy fun.

As the night fell, I finally found an inn, which was full of people from the rivers and lakes, horse gangs, merchant gangs, etc., which were specially designed to provide food, drink and entertainment for the dignitaries.

Zhang Xian was about to move in, but there were officers and soldiers in the distance who came to search, asking if he had seen a person from the rivers and lakes, Zhang Xian frowned slightly, this spirit rune is really not a good life.

He didn't bother to stay in the hotel, so he left here early after finishing his errands.

One step out, the body Ruyi disappeared, and the next moment appeared on the roof next to him, condescendingly, looking at the Dengxian Tower in the distance, his eyes were clear, and he looked directly at the truth.

Coincidentally, Jinyun Club is currently banqueting all parties in Dengxian Tower, celebrating that this month's treasure offering has done a good job, and a lot of treasures have been scraped.

The realm of Xuanzhen Dao can be regarded as a treasure offering, but in the area of Lingfu Dao, it is not a treasure offering at all, it is completely a robbery, a fake roster, while collecting treasures, and privately swallowing the rewards above, it can be said that it is earned at both ends.

Jinyun Club has been here for more than 20 years, with a bleak political performance, and at the beginning, he also had a group of sons and brothers, and made a fuss about his own backyard, his wife committed suicide in humiliation, and his mother's family raised troops to ask for guilt, which caused Nanzhou to fall into turmoil for a while.

And the top of Jinyun Society, that is, the three princes, lost in the court, and Jinyun Society has not been promoted all these years, and has been staying in Peicheng, but it is entrenched here, and it can be regarded as a local emperor.

However, the high-spirited Jinyun Society, young and young, has the upper level of martial arts, if you persevere, you will definitely have the opportunity to practice the marrow and hold the Dan, but the Jinyun Society has long been abandoned, and now it is just a short-lived appearance with excessive wine, prostration of life, exhaustion of longevity, at most there are three or five years left, and there will be death.

And in this Ascending Immortal Tower, there is also a Yin Immortal of the Spirit Rune Dao, looking at the voice of the voice, he is called Wang Immortal, and he can see at a glance that this person has also taken the Heavenly Gate's marrow tonifying pill.

"Let's start with this person. ”

Zhang Xian's feet moved and went to Dengxian Tower.
