"It's been a long time, you are the descendants of sword cultivation, not Mr. Li's disciples?"

After asking about the identities of Ning Caichen and the others, the Taoist on the other side scratched his head and looked puzzled: "Then why did he throw me here to save you? You have such a big face? Can he let him go thousands of miles to throw Dao Ye and me over to rescue you?"

This Daoist said to Zhuge Wolong: "I am Zhiqiu Yiye, a descendant of Kunlun in the middle of the Daomen, what do you call it?"

Zhuge Wolong and the others hurriedly protected their names and surnames, and at the same time told their own situation.

Zhiqiu Yiye was shocked: "You dare to rob prisoners? Do you know that this is called a crime and a crime? Dao Ye, I am a good Taoist who abides by the law, but I can't go along with you." ”

He said with a panicked face: "Farewell!

Zhuge Wolong: "...... Senior, Mr. Li Da asked you to come over, there must be another deep meaning, I am afraid it is not good for you to just leave. ”

Zhiqiu Yiye: "Why is it not good? I am a kind Taoist, I never break the law and discipline, I only catch ghosts and demons, and never interfere in the grievances and hatreds of the mortal world......"

"One hundred taels!"

Zhuge Wolong stretched out a finger and said, "One hundred taels of silver! You will send Master Fu to a safe place with us!"

Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment: "What one hundred taels? Hey, one hundred taels of silver? Dao Ye, am I a person who is short of money? Just kidding!"

After taking a few steps, he turned his head and said, "You just let me go, don't you keep it?" Brother, to be honest, in fact, I was also a person who was anxious for justice and righteousness, but one hundred taels is too little, right? Why do I have three hundred taels? I am also in the Kunlun lineage, and the authentic descendants of the Daomen are ......."

"Two hundred taels!"

"Deal!"

Zhiqiu Yiye was smiling when he arrived, and laughed at everyone: "Wouldn't you have it if you said no? If you have money, it's easy to do things, Dao Ye, I'll barely earn an incense money today!"

Everyone: "......"

Fu Yuechi ran to Zhuge Wolong's side curiously, and asked in a low voice, "Mr. Zhuge , how do you know that this person loves money so much?"

Zhuge Wolong said: "It's not easy? Look at his shoes, one big and one small, and they are all smooth! Look at his clothes, they are all yellowed, I don't know how long he has been wearing them, if he had money, he would have changed into new clothes a long time ago! I don't know, with this master's skills, how can he be so poor, but since he is so short of money, I have to give it a try!"

Zhiqiu Yiye's ears moved, and he had already listened to Zhuge Wolong's words in his ears, and cried bitterly: "What do you know? It's not easy to earn money now! I, like cultivators, eat a lot, and we have to spend money on cinnabar and yellow mounting, and we have to buy good medicinal materials for the preparation of medicines, and we have to spend money to buy medicines for refining our muscles and bones, and it costs money to do everything anyway! The people now generally have no money, and I am embarrassed to collect too much for the demon hunting ghosts. So until now, I can't even afford to buy a new dress!"

When he said this, he said with an indignant face: "The current situation is too chaotic! Business is not easy to do!"

Zhuge Wolong deeply agreed: "Only in troubled times will there be ghosts and ghosts rampant, and now the situation is chaotic, and the people of the world are not able to make a living, so such monsters appear! Under the clear sky, the sun is shining, and naturally there will be no ghosts. You are a cultivator, you need to accumulate merits, now let's save Lord Fu Tianqiu, even if it is to leave a vitality for the righteous path, the more upright officials you save, the greater the power to reorganize the rivers and mountains in the future!"

Zhiqiu Yiye said: "Don't tell me these big truths, I'll only recognize money now! Let's go, let's settle you adults first!"

Zhuge Wolong said: "Dao Chief, let me ask, what are Mr. Li and my senior brother Yan Chixia doing now?"

"I haven't seen Yan Chixia, but Li Xiake said that he might have to go down the mountain for a trip, and said that he would meet someone for a while......"

Li Xiake did go down the mountain, and he had already walked on the road for a few days, and his face was extremely ugly all the way.

In this country, the south is a little better, although the people live in poverty, but after all, there is no catastrophe, and they can barely make a living, but the north is not good, the entire northern border, there is a drought for many years, and after the drought is the flying locusts, the locusts are terrible to the extreme, covering the sky and the sun, and there is no more than an inch left in the place where they pass!

The leaves and crops are all gnawed away.

Li Xiake walked in a small town, only to see that on the meat stalls along the way, there were many human flesh hanging on the iron hooks, and there were people killing people nearby, such as slaughtering pigs and dogs, disemboweling their stomachs, cutting off their heads and feeding the dogs, and the rest of the parts were edible.

Zila!

In the small shop next to it, there are shops stir-frying vegetables in a big pot, and the strange aroma of the tendons on the thighs of the fried people is spreading, causing the nearby victims to tremble in their noses, green light in their eyes, and saliva flow.

"They eat people!

Li Xiake walked all the way, even with his heart, he also had a trembling feeling at this time: "This dog's world!"

He has also seen many years of famine, but it is rare to see such large-scale cannibalism.

The numb expressions, dull eyes, and cruel behavior of these people made Li Xiake a little creepy.

"In such a situation, it is not surprising that there are any monsters!"

On the contrary to this miserable scene, the high-ranking families are constantly drinking and meat, there is no shortage of rice and noodles, and some officials and wealthy families are still in a beautiful voice, and they have never been cut off.

Instead, the officials who provided relief and grain relief raised the price of rice at this time, arbitrarily withheld it, and distributed less than three days of food to the victims.

"In this year of calamity, grain will be deducted, and all these people should be killed! The emperor is mediocre, and he can't let him live!"

This situation made Li Xiake furious, and immediately beheaded the officials, went straight to the imperial city, and wanted to kill the emperor.

After entering the imperial city, he found that the demonic spirit was rising in the entire imperial city, and the princes and ministers were nowhere to be seen.

When he entered the palace, he found that the emperor had also disappeared, and asked the eunuch in the palace, but found that he had driven out of the palace, and the Manchu Dynasty had gone out of the capital, and went to the Black Mountain Old Man Temple to pray for rain with the national teacher Pudu Cihang!

In this important place in Beijing, there are only a few eunuchs to handle government affairs for the emperor, and all the officials have left the capital, which is really unprecedented in history, but any normal court will not do this.

"The emperor is mediocre, why are the ministers of the Manchu Dynasty also mediocre to this point? Hehe, it's getting more and more interesting!"

None of the several eunuchs in the capital were good, but at this time, Li Xiake didn't dare to kill them, if they were killed, the whole country would definitely be in chaos, and that would be a good intention.

He is a person who has been a prince and an emperor, and he knows the priorities, at this time, no matter how chaotic the world is and how difficult the people's livelihood is, he can only seek stability, and then slowly try to do it, otherwise, it will be even more chaotic and there will be more deaths.

But even so, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime is inescapable, after beating these eunuchs one by one with blue noses and swollen faces, and planting a true qi in their bodies, they left the capital and walked towards the Black Mountain Old Man Temple.
