The person who had been dismissed the most after Le Qi on the roster was a male cultivator who was also a cultivator from Dongsheng Shenzhou.
However, this monk is different from casual cultivators like Le Qi, but also different from Taoist and Buddhist casual cultivators. He is a monk who serves the Ming Dynasty.
Although the heavenly court has no restrictions on monks serving mortal dynasties, it does not encourage them.
Heavenly Court believes that monks should quietly find a paradise to practice hard and become immortals as soon as possible, or travel around to do more meritorious deeds to save sentient beings, and not get involved in the affairs of the mortal court.
But some monks, even if they have reached the realm of Yangshen, still cannot give up the prosperity and beauty of the human world.
Therefore, it is reasonable for this monk to be deposed by Wen Tianxiang. The reason is that he is greedy for the glory and wealth of the world and is extremely lustful, so he is not suitable for becoming an immortal.
Fang Jian returned to Diaoer Mountain as Taoist Dafang because he found out that this person had recently been on business in Duozi Village at the foot of Diaoer Mountain.
"Guo Shi, a Yangshen realm, a casual cultivator, is currently the envoy of Fusi Town, Jinyi Weidong Town, Ming Dynasty."
This is the basic information about this male cultivator, so what is he doing in Duozi Village now? Answer: Qian Mo Xiu.
Today's Jinyiwei of the Ming Dynasty are somewhat different. Not only do they inherit all the functions of the original Jinyiwei, but they also have two additional functions, which are to deal with matters such as monsters and monsters.
Thanks to Zhu Houcong's experience as the commander of the Jinyiwei for more than 80 years, he left a fine tradition within the Jinyiwei today.
That is, if you want to become a Jinyiwei, you must do three things:
First, be absolutely loyal to the emperor.
Second, you must be able to fight and do things.
Third, you must master the most basic skills of subduing demons or some simple spells that can be mastered by ordinary people.
As the emperor's personal soldiers, the Jin Yiwei not only received excellent treatment, but also had great powers, such as refusing to bow to officials and supervising all officials.
When Fang Jian and Hei Hai'er came to Duozi Village, they happened to see Guo Shi leading a team of Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi to conduct an investigation in Duozi Village.
However, among the Jinyi guards in Duozi Village, only Guo Shi is a Taoist in the Yangshen realm, and the rest are mortals with no cultivation.
But Fang Jian was still stopped by a few flags, "This Taoist priest is investigating the demon cultivators here. Please take a detour."
Fang Jian heard this and asked, "Are there any demon cultivators here?"
Xiaoqi said: "There are demon cultivators everywhere now."
Fang Jian smiled and said: "In that case, I have to go into the village. I am a Taoist priest. If there is a demon cultivator, I can also help."
Hearing Fang Jian's words, Xiao Qi was slightly startled, and immediately discussed it with several other Xiao Qi. He felt that what Fang Jian said made sense, so he nodded and said: "Taoist Master is right, please wait a moment and allow me Send a message to the envoy of Zhen Fu."
"Oh?" Fang Jian pretended to be surprised and said, "Is it the envoy Guo Zhen of Dongzhen Fusi?"
Xiaoqi was slightly surprised when he heard this and said, "Does the Taoist priest know our Lord Zhenfu?"
Fang Jian shook his head and smiled: "I don't know him, but I have heard about it for a long time."
When Xiaoqi heard this, he immediately said proudly: "That's it, which monk in the Ming Dynasty has never heard of the name of our governor? Our governor is a real monk with powerful magic power!"
"Okay, go report it quickly." Another Xiaoqi said.
The little flag nodded, then quickly turned around and entered the village to report to Guo Shitong.
Soon after, Guo Shi came to the entrance of the village in person. When he saw Fang Jian, he couldn't help but look solemn, because he felt an extremely deep energy from Fang Jian, and he couldn't see his cultivation at all. This shows that The other party's level of cultivation is far above his.
Guo Shi went up to Fang Jianji and said, "Guo Shi, the envoy of Fusi Town in Guodong Town of Ming Dynasty, has met Taoist friend."
Fang Jian bowed his head in return, briefly introduced Hei Haier and then asked, "Fellow Taoist Guo, I heard that there is a demon cultivator here?"
Guo Shi nodded and said, "That's true, and he came from this Duozi Village."
"Oh?" Fang Jian said in surprise when he heard this: "Fellow Taoist, are you saying that the demon cultivators here are all transformed from mortals in Duozi Village?"
Guo Shi nodded and said: "Yes, after several days of investigation, I found that six people have gone missing in Duozi Village, and one of these six people has turned into a demon cultivator. He was caught by me yesterday and has been sent to Taishan. It’s time to save the devil."
Hei Hai'er said at this time: "Master, I killed three demon cultivators some time ago. It seems that they are quite close to Duozi Village, and they are also at the foot of Diaoer Mountain."
After hearing this, Guo Shi finally took a formal look at Hei Haier, but at this glance he was stunned again, what's going on? He can't see through this child's cultivation?
However, he was still attracted by Hei Haier's words, "Fellow Taoist, where did you kill three demon cultivators?"
Hei Hai'er raised his hand and pointed to the north of Duozi Village: "There."
Guo Shi glanced in that direction, and finally said in deep thought: "That should be right, they are the demon cultivators in Duozi Village. So there are still two of the six demon cultivators that have not been caught?"
"Maybe Pindao can help." Fang Jian smiled at Guo Shi and said.
When Guo Shi heard this, he immediately smiled at Fang Jian and said, "Since fellow Taoist is willing to help me, that's the best thing. Fellow Taoist, please come into the village."
"Please." Fang Jian responded, and then everyone entered Duozi Village.
As soon as he entered Duozi Village, Fang Jian felt a very strange atmosphere. This Duozi Village was very dark.
As he walked around the room and observed, Hei Haier suddenly said: "Master, it seems that there are only boys in this village, not girls."
Hearing Hei Haier's words, Fang Jian nodded slightly. This is indeed strange. It stands to reason that no matter how few girls there are in a village, there won't be none at all, right?
And there is another point. If all the people in this village have sons, then this village should be very yang-qi, but now this village is obviously very yin-qi.
Guo Shi, who was walking side by side with Fang Jian, said, "Do you know why this village is called Duozi Village?"
Fang Jian had already guessed the reason, but he still took the initiative to ask: "Why?"
Guo Shi said: "Duozi means 'many sons', so all the people in this village are sons."
"Oh, I see. All the children are sons. Is it so magical?" Fang Jian asked Guo Shi.
Guo Shi shook his head and said, "Fellow Taoist, is there any place in the world where only sons are born? People in Duozi Village also have daughters."
Fang Jian said: "Then, where are those girls?"
Guo Shi raised his hand and said towards the cloud-shrouded Diaoer Mountain to the north of Duozi Village: "It's all up there."
After a cup of tea, Guo Shi and Fang Jian flew to the foot of Diaoer Mountain in the north of Duozi Village. A cliff immediately appeared in front of everyone, and what was particularly shocking was that there were actually hanging bodies hanging on this cliff. A small hanging coffin.
On the cliff, more than half of the cliff from top to bottom is covered with rows and rows of wooden plank bridges similar to plank roads, and on those wooden plank bridges, there are thin and small tools stacked on top of each other. Some of the coffins had even rotted away, revealing the bones of the babies inside.
"All the girls from Duozi Village are here." Even though it was not the first time that Guo Shi saw this scene, he still felt chilled all over at this moment.
When Fang Jian saw the scene in front of him, he said calmly: "They are all dead baby girls."
"Yes, Duozi Village told the county government that Duozi Village has bad feng shui and cannot raise a baby girl," Guo Shi said.
Fang Jian asked: "How long has it been since this dead baby was discovered?"
Guo Shi said: "I didn't know about it until I got here, but the county government had discovered it a long time ago. Otherwise, guess why this mountain is called 'Diao'er Mountain'?"
"Because these hanging coffins are to be placed on the cliff, they must be hung down from the mountain with ropes." Hei Hai'er replied.
Guo Shi nodded and said, "Yes, dead babies cannot be buried and can only be thrown into caves or in the wilderness. This cliff is where Duozi Village places dead babies in the village."
This is why Duozi Village is full of boys, but the Yin Qi is so strong. It is the resentment of these dead baby girls.
Can you survive if Feng Shui is not good? Are you kidding me? There are at least thousands of dead baby girl corpses stacked on top of this cliff. Thousands of them.
"The county magistrate has arrested him." Guo Shichao said to Fang Jian: "I believe he will explain soon that the torture tools of my Jin Yiwei are not vegetarian."
No matter which country in the four continents, the court strictly prohibits infanticide and infanticide. Regardless of the original intention of these courts to ban infanticide, infanticide is not allowed by the court.
This is even more true in the Ming Dynasty, because among the main priests and gods of the Ming Dynasty is Nuwa Empress. Nuwa Empress is the Holy Mother of the human race, and all people are created by Nuwa Empress. It established the value that everyone is "created equal", because everyone is kneaded by Nuwa Empress with mud, so there is no right or wrong.
Of course, in reality, the distinction between high and low will always exist objectively, but mainstream values and moral values advocate 'equality and justice'.
Therefore, in the Ming Dynasty, infanticide was a serious crime. Even if the belief of Nuwa was not mentioned, infanticide was not allowed in terms of the basic interests of the Ming Dynasty.
Because what the Ming Dynasty, which unified the entire Dongsheng China, needs most is population. With the population, there will be sufficient sources of troops, and with the population, it can continue to expand. For the extremely martial Ming Dynasty, no matter men or women, as long as they are human beings, they are precious. of.
Fang Jian looked at the densely packed hanging coffins on the cliff in front of him, as well as the resentment surrounding the cliff that could not be dissipated, and said slowly: "Seeing these hanging coffins, let alone six people in Duozi Village were possessed, even if the whole village was possessed by me It’s not surprising either.”
After saying that, Fang Jian sent a message to Hei Hai'er: "Find the land god here and ask him to come see me at midnight tonight."
Hei Hai'er heard Fang Jian's message and immediately nodded calmly.
There is no mountain god in Diaoer Mountain, because not just any mountain has a mountain god. Only those famous mountains and rivers, or important mountains, and large mountains and rivers with fame and caves and blessed places can have mountain gods. Ordinary mountains do not have the conditions or conditions to give birth to mountain gods. Talk about the need to enshrine the mountain god.
