Wei Yingdian's gestures and words not only amazed Qi Jingzhi, but also Mr. Ota, who was standing slightly behind, looked surprised and shocked.
Previously, the man who guarded the lake hurriedly passed the letter, and the number of words on the paper was limited, so he did not mention Wei Yingdian, an insignificant resigned official. Unexpectedly, this person seized the opportunity and talked nonsense with his eloquent tongue. , The opposite effect is the cause, but at first glance it sounds reasonable and well-founded, which makes people have to believe it.
Anyway, looking at the confused look on the face of Xunjiang Water God, this god obviously believed it!
Mr. Da even suspected that when his message was conveyed through Laomiao Zhu, the Xunjiang Water God might have only heard the beginning. When he learned that his servant was actually beaten by the Demon Suppressing Academy because of such a trivial matter as the ban on fishing in Qu'a Town. He was seriously injured and was about to die. He immediately became angry and rushed over on the waves. He had no idea that the second half of Fang Jian focused on killing the dragon to suppress the evil monument.
Otherwise, according to common sense, as soon as Father Jiang arrived, he should have gone to the bottom of the river to look for the monument to suppress evil, instead of first coming to Qi Jingzhi to ask for his guilt.
Sure enough, Xunjiang Water God's face quickly darkened, and he stared at the golden-eyed water worm in his hand, a stern look flashing in his eyes.
He suddenly stretched out his other hand and scratched hard at the back of Jin Jing Shui's head, immediately tearing off a few pieces of black scales and the shriveled flesh underneath.
Since the golden-eyed water worm came ashore, it has closed its pair of golden strange eyes and ignored the outside world. Even if its master god came in person just now and even raised his hand to take it in his palm, he still closed his eyes. , as if unaware.
Suddenly feeling pain, it suddenly opened its eyes, opened its mouth and bit hard at the wrist of the Xunjiang Water God.
"Um?"
Xunjiang Water God's hand that grasped the golden-eyed water worm suddenly tightened, and his fingertips dug deeply into the servant's neck, and thick black blood immediately seeped out from several blood holes.
Immediately, Jin Jing Shuiji, who was already extremely weak, screamed, rolled his eyes, and fainted from the pain on the spot.
"Things that don't know how to die!"
Xunjiang Water God cursed in a low voice, brought the scales and flesh of the golden-eyed water worm to his eyes and examined it for a moment, then brought it up to the tip of his nose and sniffed it, and finally put it into his mouth.
There was a crunching sound of chewing, and the iron-hard black scales were bitten to pieces by the River God. Dark blood covered in debris flowed out from the corners of his mouth and onto his chin.
Xunjiang Water God immediately stretched out his hand and wiped it on his mouth and chin, then stretched out his tongue and licked it, then rolled back the remaining blood at the corner of his mouth.
Before he could chew the food in his mouth and swallow it completely, his face was no longer as calm as before. In addition to uncontrollable anger, it was also obviously a little more eager.
He immediately turned around and was about to take the servant, who had a bone in his head, into the water to check.
"Wait a minute! Lord Shen, there is no need to worry, I have eliminated the evil dragon at the bottom of the river!"
Qi Jingzhi knew that once the other party went down to the bottom of the river, he could not hide the fact that the dragon evil spirit had been eliminated. Anyway, the letter from Duke Da to the county had been sent for a long time. Presumably the county guard and the demon-suppressing captain were already on their way, so he The purpose of summoning these big shots has been almost achieved, so we can simply give the answer directly.
As soon as these words came out, it was not just Mr. La who was shocked. Wei Yingdian was also a little stunned. He immediately turned to look at Qi Jingzhi with a searching look in his eyes, as if he wanted to confirm whether what the young man said was true or false.
Xunjiang Water God paused and turned around suddenly, with a face full of shock and anger: "The evil dragon that has been suppressed for hundreds of years has not been eradicated...are you getting rid of it?"
"What a joke!"
Without waiting for Qi Jingzhi's reply, he laughed angrily, with flesh residue and blood stains remaining between his lips and teeth.
The Xunjiang Water God looked at Qi Jing with contempt and then looked away. He turned to Wei Yingdian and asked sternly: "Isn't Dr. Wei just trying to amuse me? He was intimidating and selling out. He talked for a long time with white teeth. What old story, unexpected disaster, Gouchen Yuan, which has never heard of anything, is now telling me that the evil dragon has been eliminated?"
"Although I am young and have not yet ascended to the gods, I also know that the water dragon is the destiny of a river. Once it is killed, it will attract the anger of the river. After death, the remaining spirit will become evil, and it will be full of hatred and it is difficult to escape. !」
He stretched out his hand and pointed at Qi Jingzhi: "Just a second-level Demon Suppressing Academy monk? What if?
Is it really that easy? Why call it the Demon-Suppressing Academy? Just change it to the Demon-Slaying Academy. There is no need to scare people with the Demon-Slaying Well! "
Being underestimated by the Xunjiang Water God again, Qi Jingzhi actually didn't have much trouble in his heart. For such a rebellious water god who was on one side and a self-taught third-level monk, it was useless to just talk about reason. He also needed strength. Shock.
Only with strong support can a principle become a righteousness respected by everyone.
Wei Yingdian's words just now were heard by the water god of Xunjiang River precisely because he had the support of the Ministry of Rites of Daqi and even the ruler of the country.
Even earlier, the Jiang Shen did not kill Qi Jing as soon as he arrived, but only used his heart and soul to exert his power. Even after being scolded by the young man with the righteousness of being entrusted by the king and worshiped by the people, he still did not become angry, which was natural. It's because the young man is using the banner of the Demon Suppressing Academy.
However, that's all. After all, Qi Jingzhi is far different from Jiang Shen in terms of spiritual practice, and a mere rank-less police officer is much different from the other party's marquis. If he wants to properly resolve today's In order to prevent the people of Qu'a from being angered by the incident, they still need to continue to take advantage of the situation and try their best to deal with it.
So, the young man met the Xunjiang Water God's finger, cupped his fists in salute, and said calmly: "Qi Jingzhi, the police officer of Linzhou Demon Academy in Daqi, has met Xunhou."
"Xunhou Mingjian, everything that Mr. Wei said is true. I have indeed eliminated the evil dragons at the bottom of the river. If Xunhou doesn't believe it, there should be aquatic animals with evil spirits lurking in the aquatic plants at the bottom of the river at this time. Later, You’ll know once you find out!”
"Anti-criminal officer? Not an anti-criminal doctor?"
The Yishen and the two people present naturally knew what the police officers of the Demon Suppressing Academy were, and they were all surprised for a moment. They really couldn't understand that with Qi Jingzhi's level of cultivation and his surname from the country of Da Qi, even if he could not become the Demon Suppressing Academy, Lieutenant, being a police officer is more than enough, why do you have to settle for this? It can't be that all the demon-suppressing generals and captains in Linzhou are blind, right?
Although the "Ji Shi Lang Zhong" and "Ji Shi Ban Yi" both carry the word "Ji Shi", the former is a seventh-grade or even a sixth-grade official, while the latter is only an eighth-grade official at the highest level. They are definitely not the same.
Xunjiang Water God obviously didn't believe it. He slowly retracted his finger and said coldly, "I have important matters, so I don't have time to grind my teeth with Qi Jishi here!"
When he said the words "Qi Ji Shi", his tone was obviously a little more serious.
While recalling Wei Yingdian's demonstration of using the truth to bluff people, Qi Jingzhi took out the card given by Liu Muzhi.
He showed it to the other party nonchalantly, and then chuckled: "The Liu family in Yuzhou can still send outstanding children from the family to serve as seventh-grade meritorious officials in Huaide County, Linzhou, and Fuya is known as the No. 1 Zen Forest in Daqi." There are also monks who go to Huaide County to transform tiger spirits into troubles. Qi's family background is not as good as theirs, so why can't he be this classless policeman?"
As soon as these words came out, Wei Yingdian and Mr. Ta couldn't help but look at each other. Why did Huaide County in Linzhou sound like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den? Could there be some big opportunity or big change in Linshan Mountain recently? .z.br>
Xunjiang Water God's face also changed color slightly, and he asked in a deep voice: "The Liu family of Yuzhou who is known as the Yulong family?"
Qi Jingzhi was also surprised when he heard this.
How did he know this? Jiao Yulang only said at the beginning that although Liu Mu's family was not the Queen of Saint Jiang, it had a great origin, but he did not go into details. If she is really the descendant of the Yulong clan, it is no wonder that she has little contact with the Jiao clan of Chaozhou, and even dislikes each other.
Immediately, the young swordsman shook his head slightly, and his tone became more and more careless: "This is nothing. The Jiao family of Chaozhou is not a son of a good family, but he wanders into Linshan Mountain, saying that he wants to find The hundreds of thousands of mountain money hidden by the Linshan family back then? Or Qi Mou sent him all the way back to Chaozhou, so that he didn't miss the birthday banquet of Aunt Jiao. Oh, on the way, we also had a meal on the Caojiang Jiangxin Pavilion Painted Boat. A feast of mountain dragons from Lord Yishen."
Qi Jingzhi's words became more and more arrogant, and a lot of things seemed to be revealed between the lines.
Xunjiang Water God's face changed several times after hearing this. The previous contempt and anger had long disappeared, and he finally realized that he could not suppress the little police officer in front of him. The Liu family of Yuzhou, Fuya Temple, and Cao Jiang Although Zhu Yihou is prominent, he can never influence Xunjiang, but Chao
But the Zhou Jiao family can talk to Dajiang Shuifu!
He thought for a while, his eyes swept over Wei Yingdian and Mr. Ta, and then he spoke again: "Since Qi Ji said that the evil dragon has been eliminated, I can trust the reputation of this Demon Suppressing Academy. However, those who are in the river are still alive." People with evil spirits are a hidden danger after all, I wonder if Qi Jishi would be willing to lend a helping hand to me and go to the bottom of the river to patrol together?"
The Xunjiang Water God paused, and then added with deep meaning: "There is also the evil-suppressing monument, which should be inspected carefully again, so that Mr. Wei can go back and report."
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi nodded and shook his head: "What Marquis Xun said is correct. However, the two incidents of the murder committed by the servants of your palace on the river and the escape of the evil dragon from the evil stele at the bottom of the river have been reported to Xunyang County at the same time. , it is better to wait for the adults in the county to arrive and discuss a proper solution together, and it will not be too late for Qi to follow Xunhou to inspect the bottom of the river."
He thought for a while and added: "Although the evil dragon has been eliminated, the princes in the county don't know it. It must be coming soon."
Xunjiang Water God's expression changed again, and he couldn't help but give Duke Ta a hard look, and said in a hateful voice: "I didn't expect that such a trivial matter would alarm all the princes in the county!"
After he finished speaking, he suddenly pulled out two yellow-black tentacles swaying in the wind from his head and threw them into the air.
The two tentacles rolled in the air and turned into two small fish that looked very strange at first glance. They had a black back and yellow belly, a body like a shuttle, and two fins on their sides like wings, swimming in mid-air as if they were flying.
The water god of the Xunjiang River pointed at one of them, and the flying fish stopped suddenly and spit out a crystal clear bubble towards him.
Just listen to the Xunjiang Water God saying to the bubble: "It was the old county guard who opened the lake and divided the river. What does it have to do with being a god and honoring him? Since then, there has been no ban on fishing in Qu'a Town, and this autumn Xun The fishing season in Yang County has been extended for ten days, so the people will definitely be grateful for your kindness!"
After that, he pointed at another flying fish that was still swimming endlessly and fixed it in mid-air.
The previous one regained its freedom, opened its mouth and swallowed the bubble, then fluttered its fins and rushed towards the Xun River, flying close to the water surface.
The water god of the Xunjiang River spat bubbles at another flying fish and said: "The monument for suppressing evil spirits was erected by Gouchen Academy hundreds of years ago. What's the matter with Captain Qian Zhenmo? Now that the evil spirits have been eliminated, the Xunjiang River is peaceful, and in a year Nei Xunjiang Water Mansion will definitely conduct strict inspections and will never let the water ghost Jiang Meng find someone to die in Xunyang County. In this way, the performance of the captain and his staff will be good!"
After the second flying fish also flew across the river, the water god of the Xunjiang River looked at the villagers who had retreated to watch in the distance, and loudly said three things: the opening of fishing in Qu'a Town, the extension of the fishing season this autumn, and the strict prevention of ghosts from harming people.
After the words fell, the villagers were silent for a while. Suddenly, someone knelt down, and then more people followed suit. After a while, they knelt down in darkness, and everyone loudly praised Jiang Shen for his great kindness.
Amidst the deafening cheers and prayers, Wei Yingdian saw this scene and couldn't help shaking his head secretly. He said in Qi Jingzhi's ear: "The extension of the autumn flood will inevitably affect the winter flood. It's just a means of running around. As for fishing and patrolling the river, it's the God of the River." Even though he is responsible for his duties, he is regarded as a great kindness by the people!"
Qi Jingzhi, who was born in the mountains, could empathize more with his experience, and replied in a low voice: "It is better than eating nothing with corpses or even killing the people. These villagers depend on water and live under the eaves. If the adults above can do less trouble in the village, they will have to do it." Burning incense!"
"Qi Jishi, I am afraid that all the princes in the county will not come! Cleaning up the hidden dangers in Xunjiang River is an urgent matter. I am responsible for my duties and I dare not neglect it. I also ask Qi Jishi to come with me as soon as possible!"
Xunjiang Water God said loudly, with a slightly proud look in his eyes.
After hearing this, Qi Jingzhi was silent for a moment, and then saluted the other party with cupped fists: "Xunjiang is the territory under the jurisdiction of Xunhou. Previously, he was in a hurry to obey the authority, so Qi stepped over and took over. Now that Xunhou has arrived in person, I If you do your best, you won't cause trouble."
"Oh? That's fine!"
Xunjiang Water God was not surprised, and immediately smiled calmly: "Qi Jishi, Wei Langzhong, I have something to say, please listen carefully!"
"Xunjiang Water Mansion has always been respectful to the king and Dunmu County, and has taken good care of the people along the river. The reason why my servant did not allow people to fish was precisely because it was found that the evil dragons were loose in the river and would not harm the people. This is a last resort
As a result, the evil dragon happened to be attacking today. Although the servant acted in a hurry to hurt others, he still had the intention to save others! "
"I work hard and take precautions. This time, even Deli's servants died at the hands of the evil dragon. At this critical moment, I was fortunate to have the help of Xunyang County Sheriff, Zhenmo Commandery, and the people guarding Qu'ahou Lake. After asking for help, this disaster was restrained in Qu'a's corner. I wanted to petition for help, but I didn't expect that the king of the country and the princes of the Qizheng Pavilion had already made a plan. Wei Langzhong of the Ministry of Rites inspected the starry night and the Demon Suppressing Academy worked together to eliminate the evil. Jiang has been in peace since then, and the people all praise his holiness!"
"You two have returned to your hometown, Honshu. When talking to outsiders about today's events, please refer to the reports from Xunyang County and Xunjiang Water Palace! If you are considerate, we will naturally be more attentive to the end of the year and the four seasons. Offer it up!"
After saying that, the Lord of Xunjiang did not wait for the two people to answer. He raised his head and looked into the air again. He solemnly said: "Tonight, I will invite Uncle Xianyou to have a drink at the Shishilijiang Shrine in the west. Please spread the word!"
The voice in mid-air immediately responded: "Don't worry, Lord Xun, the little god will definitely bring the message!"
Only then did Xunjiang Water God look at the two of them again: "I wonder what you two think?"
