Chapter 140: Be kind to others
In the distant past, the war between the gods and the gods ended in a demon invasion. When the gods join forces to expel the demons, the ancient period is over and the ancient period begins. The gods retired, humans and demons stepped onto the stage of history, and a great war took place that lasted for 30,000 years.
In the early days of antiquity, the demon clan relied on their innate strength to gain the upper hand in war, enslaving weak humans. In the middle of antiquity, humans gradually rose to prominence, and defeated the demon clan in the late antiquity and captured Tianhengzhou. The demon clan is not an enemy of the humans, and in order to escape the slaughter and enslavement of humans, they went away to the Mangdang Continent and the Nine Cold Continents.
Now, the long time has diluted the blood feud between the two races.
Demons can live in Tianhengzhou openly, and even apprentice to the immortal sect; people can walk in Mangdangzhou, and even become the guests of demons. Jiuhanzhou is a mixture of fish and dragons, some people also have demons, there are righteous and evil sects, there are Buddhism and demon sects.
In addition to the three continents mentioned above, taking a boat from the port of Yuzhou Province to the south, across the vast ocean, is the Arai Island. You can go to Danxia Continent by boat to the west, Jiuhan Continent is in the far northwest, and Mangdang Continent is in the farther east.
Pei Ruxi straightened his clothes, put a strand of hair that wiped his face behind his shoulder, and fixed it with a spell to prevent his hair from being messed up by the wind blowing by the river, while looking at the unfamiliar environment.
This is the outskirts of Yuzhou Mansion, and the pale blue sky seems to be covered with a translucent white paper, floating with thin clouds. The river, which is so wide that you can't see the edge, flows slowly, sparkling in the sun, and occasionally a few lively fish jump out of the water to experience the sensation of flying.
The riverbank is lined with artificially planted plantain trees, and a few vegetable patches that the owner has neglected to take care of, and a dirt path overgrown with weeds stretches from the vegetable patch to Pei Ruxi's feet. She followed the path away from the riverbank and onto a sparsely populated road, where someone happened to be passing by with a cart.
"Jingle Bellโ"
The ox pulling the cart was tied to a bell, and the ox did not go fast, and the bell rang rhythmically.
Pei Ruxi had never seen a cow tied to a bell, so he stopped and looked at it curiously.
The aunt who was driving the car found her and shouted: "Little girl, why aren't you with adults?"
"My lord is not here, I am alone. Pei Ruxi asked politely, "Are you going to Yuzhou Mansion?" I want to take a ride. โ
"If you don't dislike it, come up. Seeing that Pei Ruxi was born with white skin and beautiful appearance, and was well-dressed, the aunt was puzzled, "May I ask which family are you from?"
She asked the cart to stop, Pei Ruxi got into the car, sat next to her aunt, and said, "My surname is Pei, my home is in Luoxia City, not here." โ
Compared with Yuzhou Mansion, Luoxia City is a small place, and the aunt said: "I haven't heard of your hometown, do you have relatives in Yuzhou Mansion?"
Pei Ruxi: "No. โ
Auntie's eyes widened: "Then where do you stay at night?"
Pei Ruxi smiled without saying a word, took out a spirit coin and gave it to the aunt, closed his eyes and recovered his spiritual power and divine sense.
Spirit coins were usually circulated among low-ranking monks, and mortals were accustomed to using gold, silver, and copper coins. The aunt has touched the silver, but she has never touched the gold, let alone the spirit coin. When she received the spirit coin, she didn't dare to ask for it, she wanted to return it to Pei Ruxi, but she was afraid of disturbing her, so she had to take the spirit coin, close her mouth and drive silently.
The lone lady in the car was probably a noble monk.
The monks in the story are good or evil, some are prone to murder and take their lives, and some are willing to help mortals, I wonder what the heart of this monk is?
Two quarters of an hour later, the cart arrived at the north gate of Yuzhou Mansion.
Yuzhou Mansion is near the sea, and there are occasional demon beasts in the sea to go ashore to make trouble, so the city wall is built high and thick, and it is extremely majestic. But when people look at the city walls, the first thing they notice is not how high the walls are, but the skeletons of sea beasts hanging above the city gates.
This skeleton resembles a fish, but it has a pair of strong and powerful claws, about ten feet long, with a large mouth full of fangs, and the two eye sockets of the black hole occasionally flash a ray of red light, which is terrifying.
Sensing the residual breath of the bones, Pei Ruxi opened his eyes and looked at it, thinking: This sea beast was probably in the Jindan stage before its death, and its soul was sealed in the bones?
In recent years, no sea beasts have come ashore, and the city gate to and from Yuzhou Mansion has been doubled, and two small city gates have even been opened on both sides of the big city gate. Pedestrians entering the city take the left gate, pedestrians leaving the city go through the right gate, and horse-drawn carriages and animal carts go through the big gate. Monk guards in black-brown armor were on duty at the gates, and there were no taxes to pay or stop for inspection.
The Great Elder of the Su Clan, who had defected, hid in the Yuzhou Mansion, and Pei Ruxi entered the city and got out of the car while passing by a certain street.
The car didn't stop, Pei Ruxi jumped down, and the aunt hurriedly stopped her.
"Immortal, immortal!"
"Something?"
Pei Ruxi looked back at her aunt and heard her heartbeat speeding up due to nervousness.
The eldest aunt moistened her lips and asked cautiously, "Immortal Master, are you free?" There are man-eating demon beasts near my mother's house, can you please get rid of the harm?"
"I'm not available right now. "Pei Ruxi wants to arrest the Great Elder of the Su Clan, "The monks of Yuzhou Mansion can't help get rid of the demon beasts?"
"That demon beast is very powerful, it, it ate the immortal master sent by the City Lord's Mansion to hunt it......"
The aunt didn't know if Pei Ruxi had the ability to kill the demon beast, so she knelt down and pleaded: "Please go and see it, kill it if you can, kill it if you can, and if you can't kill it, you should go and watch the fun!"
Pei Ruxi is not used to accepting other people's bows, and the aunt can't kneel down, and her eyes are even more eager.
The demon beasts around Luoxia City will also infest mortals.
Since the number of demon beasts is getting smaller and smaller, and the skin, flesh, muscles, bones and blood of demon beasts can usually be exchanged for spirit stones, mortals who are protected by the Pei clan can only ask the Pei clan for help, and are not allowed to ask for help from other immortal cultivation families or scattered cultivators. The Yuzhou Mansion may also have a rule that does not allow monks from other places to kill local monsters.
Pei Ruxi had no intention of causing trouble, but there was such a thing as demon beasts eating people......
She asked, "When did the monster cannibalism happen?"
Auntie: "Last fall." โ
It's been more than half a year, and Yuzhou Mansion hasn't killed the man-eating demon beast yet? Pei Ruxi asked again: "What does that demon beast look like?"
The aunt described: "Like a crab with a human head, with ten claws, it breathes fire and ice ......"
"Ice and Fire Human Head Crab?" Pei Ruxi thought of a demon beast he saw in the book, and presented the illustrated book of the demon beast with a water mirror, "Is this what it looks like?"
"That's right! That's what the beast that was killed that day!"
"I see. Pei Ru knew as before.
The Ice and Fire Human Head Crab can't be sold for much money and is difficult to kill, no wonder the monk of Yuzhou Mansion is not interested in it, and she is not interested in it either.
"Immortal Master?" the eldest aunt looked at her expression, gritted her teeth, and boldly made a third request, "Immortal Master, as long as you go to my mother's house, I will give you my mother's family heirloom!
"I'll talk about it when I'm done with my business. Pei Ruxi interrupted her, "If I don't have time, I will tell you in advance." โ
The tracking secret technique gave her feedback that the Great Elder of the Su Clan was moving at a constant speed, and she took out the second-order wind talisman and stuck it to her waist, disappearing from her aunt's field of vision in an instant.
The aunt couldn't find her, and there was a bitter look on her face.
Pinching the spirit coin given by Pei Ruxi, the aunt drove to the place where the letter was delivered, and asked the monk to send an urgent letter to her mother's family with the spirit coin.
Regardless of whether Pei Ruxi is free to go to her mother's house, Pei Ruxi is willing to kill the demon beast, she has to prepare the promised heirloom, and she can't wait for this kind little immortal master.
Yuzhou Mansion has a longer history than Luoxia City, and the city area is also larger than Luoxia City, including mortals, this large city has a population of more than five million, complex streets, and many houses.
Pei Ruxi jumped onto the roof, mortal eyes could not see her passing by, and the Qi Refining Period monk glanced at it, thinking that he was dazzled. The monk Zhuji could see her, but the Yuzhou Mansion did not prohibit the monk from flying around, and Pei Ruxi passed by.
Hitting the north of the city, Pei Ruxi chased to the south of the city, and noticed that the Great Elder of the Su Clan had stopped.
She continued to chase and chased to a shop with a flower curtain at the door, but was stopped by the monks in Tsing Yi standing on both sides of the door: "Please show the token." โ
The two Tsing Yi monks, a man and a woman, were both at the ninth level of qi refining.
Pei Ruxi asked politely: "What kind of place is this?
The male cultivator also replied politely: "This is the Virtuous Pavilion where the city lord places talented people, and those who have no tokens cannot enter." If you want to enter the Talent Pavilion, you need to go to the opposite side to get the token. โ
Pei Ruxi: "Can't you go in and find someone?"
The nun apologized: "Yes, I beg your pardon. โ
The Great Elder of the Su Clan is now a virtuous talent recruited by the City Lord of Yuzhou Mansion?Pei Ru glanced at the Virtuous Pavilion, and the feedback from the tracking secret technique was that the Great Elder of the Su Clan stopped and stopped moving, and she asked the two monks who were guarding the door, "Can you please call out the people who have been going forward for half an hour?"
The two monks said in unison, "What are you looking for him?"
Pei Ruxi said: "He stole my friend's property, and my friend asked me to arrest him back." โ
"This!" the two monks hesitated, and the nun said, "Unfortunately, we can't inform you. The talented people of the Virtuous Pavilion do things for the city lord, even if you have an enmity with the virtuous people in the Virtuous Pavilion, you must obtain the consent of the city lord to take revenge. Otherwise, your act of revenge will anger the lord and trigger a bad outcome that you are unwilling to accept. โ
"What am I going to do to get the city lord to agree to me taking the people I want to capture?"
"You'll have to ask the city lord. The nun said, "You can meet the city lord when you get the token of entering and leaving the Elite Pavilion on the other side." โ
That's too troublesome, Pei Ruxi hates trouble.
She pondered for a moment, choosing between doing things according to the rules or directly arresting the Great Elder of the Su Clan.
Yuzhou Mansion is the territory of the Qin clan, and the ancestor of the Qin family is a real person of Jindan, if she does not follow the rules, it may cause the disgust of the ancestor of the Qin family.
Pei Ruxi walked into the Pepsi Hall opposite the Xiancai Pavilion, where people came and went, and it was very lively, like a wine shop and a teahouse. On the wall facing the doorway, signs of different materials shimmered, the most conspicuous one was made of bones of sea beasts in the Jindan period, and the word "earth" was written on it.
She made no secret of her cultivation and appearance, and as soon as she walked in, she attracted everyone's attention, and a-like Zhuji monk stepped forward with a smile: "Your surname, do you need my service?"
Pei Ruxi said bluntly: "I am Pei Ruxi, and I want to see your city lord." โ
Just as Pei Ruxi would not be the patriarch of the Pei clan, the ancestor of the Qin clan had to cultivate, and all trivial matters and chores would be handled by trusted clansmen. The city lord of Yuzhou Mansion is an elderly foundation building monk, Pei Ruxi went to the city lord's mansion, waited in the living room, and saw her smoothly.
Yuzhou Mansion has dealings with Luoxia City, and the old city lord has heard Pei Ruxi's achievements, and knows that she even dares to kill Hong Yuanji's apprentice, and she has no intention of putting on a show, so she inquired cautiously:
"Can you please tell me what is the origin of the person you want to arrest?"
"He is the Great Elder of the Su Clan who defected in Luoxia City. โ
The Su clan of Luoxia City?The little cultivator family that is said to have obtained the powerful relics and can refine the best Zhuji Dan?
The old city lord immediately suspected that the defected Great Elder of the Su Clan had stolen the rumored powerful relic, otherwise how could Pei Ruxi come to Yuzhou Mansion thousands of miles away?
However, if the powerful relics were really on the Great Elder of the Su Clan, Pei Ruxi should have quietly captured him instead of explaining his purpose to her. The old city lord thought again: What if Pei Ruxi deliberately paralyzed her?
"Rest assured, we will hand him over to you. The old city lord observed the change in Pei Ruxi's face, and said softly, "Miss Pei is the first time to come to Yuzhou Mansion, right? โ
"How long do I have to wait?" Pei Ruxi didn't come to Yuzhou Mansion to see the scenery and eat delicious food.
Sensing that she didn't mind waiting, the old city lord's suspicion faded a little, and said, "We have something important for the Great Elder of the Su Clan who forged his identity and infiltrated the Virtuous Pavilion, you can see him tomorrow morning soon, and tomorrow afternoon if you are slow." โ
Pei Ruxi bowed: "Okay, don't make people stupid." "Speaking of other things," said Qin Daoyou, on the way into the city, I met a mortal who asked me to hunt the Ice and Fire Human Head Crab entrenched near her mother's house. โ
The old city lord, who was accustomed to thinking too much, was stunned and said, "You don't have to labor Miss Pei to make a move, I will send someone to solve it as soon as possible." โ
"Now?"
"Uh, Miss Pei needs that monster?"
"It's better to die before I get back to Kasumi City. Pei Ruxi didn't like to delay, "You can send someone to accompany me to kill it, I know its weaknesses, and it won't be difficult to kill it." โ
The old city lord thought for a while, and his eyes fell on the Zhuji monk who led Pei Ruxi into the city lord's mansion: "Ah Xian, do you have time to accompany Miss Pei to kill the Ice and Fire Human Head Crab?"
Ah Xian is the foundation building monk of the, and responded: "I am free." โ
So, Pei Ruxi sent a message to the aunt who asked her to kill the demon beast, and left the city lord's mansion with Ah Xian. Ah Xian sacrificed a butterfly-shaped flying magic weapon and wanted to invite Pei Ruxi to come up, but when she saw Pei Ruxi stepping on a silver flying sword, she changed her words and said, "Please Miss Pei come with me." โ
She flew to the lair of the Ice and Fire Human Head Crab with the magic weapon, and Pei Ruxi Edgeworth followed.
The flying sword is a trophy to defeat the ancestors, easy to control, fast, and low in consumption, the only drawback is that it cannot be used as an attack weapon.
Two hours and a quarter of an hour passed, and the aunt who received the summons hurriedly returned to her parents' house, and saw a swaying figure above the monster's lair in the distance. She took a breath and ran to the mountain where she could see the lair of the demon beast, and sure enough, she saw Pei Ruxi casting a spell to fight the demon beast.
