Taoist Hu Jun naturally heard the murderous intention in Langya Jun's words, and his face immediately darkened: "The weak eats the strong, the king wins and the enemy defeats the enemy. This principle has been true since ancient times! If you have a high level of cultivation and want to take the life of a poor Taoist, just do it Just do it! Why take off your pants and fart, playing such a convicting and heartbreaking trick?"
"oh?"
Zheng Xian smiled at the corner of his mouth and said calmly: "This is the land of the Qi State. Zheng is the Queen of Saint Jiang, and was named Langya Lord of Great Qi. He must respect the holy way and follow the laws of the country in every word and deed."
"If even people like Zheng don't take the principles of human rights seriously, and rely on violence and wanton killing like you, wouldn't this land of Jiang Qi become a country of monsters and ghosts?"
When he heard the three words "Langya Lord", Master Hujun's pupils shrank, and now he sneered: "It's really strange, I have never heard that there is a Langya Lord among the feudal lords of Qi!"
"As for the land of Jiang Qi that you mentioned... it's even more of a joke! As the saying goes, those who steal hooks will be punished, and those who steal the country will be kings. Wasn't this land of Jiang Qi snatched from Dongyi's hands?"
Hearing this, Langya Lord Zheng Xian chuckled, but he did not feel dissatisfied at all: "Zheng returned from overseas and has not been on the soil of Dongyue and Taizhou for nearly five hundred years, let alone a herdsman who governs the land of Qi. , it’s unusual if you haven’t heard of it. Well, considering it this way, Zheng really can’t think of himself as the lord of Qi anymore.”
"However, the reason why Jiang Qi and even all the other Jiangs were able to occupy Dongyi's homeland was because Emperor Yan, the ancestor of Jiang, had made great contributions to the human race, and the Emperor Hong clan rewarded me with the title of tin to show my saintliness. This ancestral inheritance came in a dignified way, so how can we rob it? explain?"
He paused and suddenly laughed dumbly: "Yes, if we really want to talk about it, the Taiyue Zuzhou, Dongyue Taizhou, Xiyue Huazhou, and the two southern and northern states that have not yet been established by the Jiangs were all occupied before. It is the territory of the Dongyi tribes, but earlier it was the fiefdom of the Japanese Mother in the ancient heaven, known as the Kingdom of Xihe."
"In the eyes of the remnants of the ancient heaven like you, the Tianyi Sect, whether it is the Shengjiang Kingdom or the Dongyi tribes, they are all treacherous traitors who steal land and usurp the country, and do not hesitate to die, right?"
Upon hearing this, Taoist Hu Jun's face suddenly became complicated, with disdain and resentment but also a bit of confusion. Thinking about the ancient heaven, it was so long ago that even he, the so-called bereaved family, actually had no thoughts in his heart. .
He shook his head and snorted coldly: "That's exactly what you said! It's just a traitor, a thief, a thief, a thief, a thief! We are all sensible people. Your Majesty, you don't have to talk here and there, insisting on the Jiang clan. Apply makeup and powder on your face!"
"In Pindao's view, the so-called Saint Jiang Humanity is the most hypocritical, and it is worse than Dongyi! Since the founding of the country, Jiang Qi has never stopped suppressing and brutalizing the remnants of Heavenly Court and Dongyi. This is all. , I am just a knife-sitter, and I am just a fish and meat."
"However, no matter whether the government or the aristocratic family, have they ever shown true kindness and compassion to Jiang Qi's own people? Hehe, don't you know that harsh government is as fierce as a tiger?"
The Taoist, who was born with the appearance of a tiger, paused for a moment, and suddenly opened his mouth and chanted: "It was getting late at night below the Woodcutter Mountain, and suddenly I saw a hungry tiger in the middle of the road. His eyes were like torches, his teeth were like frost, and he raised his head to see the belly of the city as a tomb."
"I will die if I don't have a way to survive. Please pray and cry and complain. I am poor, old and orphaned, and I am skinny and skinny. Don't mistake me."
"I sat there with my head bowed and wanted to ask questions, but I turned over and disappeared into the clouds. If you don't see the ruthless officials arresting people to suck the sweet ointment, you can't escape even if you worship them thousands of times!"
Taoist Tiger Lord seemed to have made up his mind to humiliate the great Qi Langya Lord before his death, or maybe he had the idea of using words to try to outsmart the other party and seek a chance of survival, so his voice became even louder. stand up.
"More than a hundred years ago, I, the Golden Toad King of the Tianyi Sect, was practicing Buddhism with great concentration in Wuzhishan Mountain in southern Xinjiang and living in peace with the world. However, when I saw that the people below the mountain were being oppressed by corrupt officials and had no way out, I felt kindhearted and helped out. Instead, You have brought death upon yourself!"
"Hey, you'll die if you kill someone, and you'll die if you save someone else! This is the Saint Ginger's Way of Humanity that Zunjia calls it. Inside, it's just that people who are not of my race have different intentions. If you want to accuse someone, why bother?"
"Except for those grassroots people who work hard to plant, fish, hunt, collect, and weave, who else in this world is not a person who eats flesh and blood and sucks sweet ointment? Nowadays, poor Taoists are not as powerful as others. There is nothing to say! I just want to use this to lower my dignity. Sin, I will never accept it!"
Langyajun Zheng Xianmo
After listening silently, he immediately said solemnly: "What you said is true. When Zheng was an official and a knight, what he ate and used was called the king's salary, and it was actually a blessing to the people."
"The same is true for the noble families and court officials in the world. Whether they are good at imposing power, brutalizing the people, or derelict in their duties and bending the law, or eating with their corpses without food, they all cut themselves off from the hearts of the saints, and they can be beaten by beating drums!"
As he said that, Lord Langya stretched out his hand and pointed at the three-legged golden toad floating in the golden cauldron: "I think this is the one left by the golden toad Dharma King. When Zheng finds out what happened back then, if he is really a man who prays for the people, Hero, Zheng has since become the Lord of the Kingdom of Letters to clear his grievances, and this thing can also be returned to the Golden Chan lineage of the Tianyi Sect."
After hearing this, Ding Chengyuan, the Marquis of Anfeng, suddenly interrupted and reminded: "Your Majesty, please do not believe this person's words. On that day, Dharma King Jin Chan of the Yi Sect deceived the people and claimed the territory as king. It’s so kind as people say!”
"I'll wait until I find out everything."
Lord Langya waved his hand towards Ding Chengyuan: "It's just that I see that the skin of this golden toad and yellow clam does contain some fertility, and it can control dirty water. It is really a mysterious magical power that combines good and evil, and complements good and evil. Together with that just now, With only a tengu inside, it looks very different from ordinary cults."
He paused, then turned to Qi Jingzhi and asked, "You just said that you were born in the mountains. Are the aristocratic families and officials in Qi really so cruel now that the people have no way to survive and have no choice but to rebel?"
Qi Jing was startled, but in his mind he thought of Chen Er who unscrupulously extorted money, Dian Shihou Changqi who delayed the tiger eradication for his own selfish interests, Master Xing Shen Ruhai who neglected his duties and violated the law, and Xunyang County who ignored the lives of the fishermen in Qu'a Town for the purpose of opening up the lake. officials.
He closed the jade box in his hand, thought about it seriously, and finally shook his head and said: "Just as the seniors said, there are some county officials who are good at imposing power and cruelty and cruelty to the people. At least this junior generation has never seen or heard of the situation where the people are in dire straits and are living in poverty. On the contrary, the evil spirits of the water tribe and demons are causing even greater harm!"
"Actually, the younger generations have made some places quite prosperous and peaceful along the way. For example, Xunyang County in Junzhou, because the previous county governor negotiated with the water god of the Xunjiang River, a Qu'ahou Lake was opened up, which provided flood control and irrigation for the local area. As a result, the people lived in peace, farmland benefited, and a brewing business that became famous throughout the state was born.”
"In addition, according to what I saw during my journey, the City God's Yin Division and the Demon-Suppressing Academy in various places are very diligent, especially the Demon-Suppressing Academy. The manpower at the county and county levels is quite insufficient. The Demon-Suppressing Captain is because When we have to patrol around and quell evil spirits, often an official office is empty except for one or two people sitting in charge."
"As for the aristocratic family, I don't know much about the juniors due to their status..."
When he said this, the young man's eyes swept from Anfeng Hou Ding Chengyuan's body, and then fell on the big black god who was still sealed in the golden date, his expression suddenly turned cold.
When Zheng Xian saw this, he immediately nodded with understanding and chuckled: "From what you just said, it seems that you are more concerned about the water tribe and the evil spirits?"
"When Zheng came to Qi this time, he also heard the king mention that in recent years, there have been strange movements in various parts of Qi, and evil spirits and demons have appeared frequently... The king's words were very fond of the Demon Suppression Academy, especially the Wuyun Division. Dissatisfied, he even intends to hang up the Gouchen Yuan sign again and compile a useful army of pro-demons."
"If nothing unexpected happens, Zheng will be in charge of this matter. Would you like to come to Gouchen Courtyard to help me, little friend Qi?"
As soon as these words came out, not only Qi Jingzhi's heart was shocked, but also the expressions of Anfeng Hou Ding Chengyuan and Hu Jun Taoist also changed suddenly. Only Wei Bao and Geshu Dashi, who didn't know what was going on, didn't react much. They just felt that Qi Jingzhi was hurt. He was appreciated and felt quite happy for him.
Qi Jingzhi reacted this way because he suddenly heard the name of Gouchen Courtyard and remembered the monument of Zhanjiao Zhensha that had stood for unknown ages under the Xunjiang River.
Ding Chengyuan foresaw that a major change would affect the court and even the entire Daqi. The turmoil in Jiuzhen County was the beginning of this change. His two brothers had no choice but to be regarded as a stepping stone for the rise of Gouchen Yuan in Daqi!
As for Master Hujun, when he saw Lord Langya talking about the secrets of the Qi State, but not avoiding him as a member of the Tianyi Sect, he knew that he was probably in doom.
Sure enough, Zheng Xian turned to him and said, "As for you, since you understand the principles well and have no doubts in your heart,
If you have no regrets, then if Zheng kills you for the sake of the person who died in vain, you must be punished as a lesson! "
Upon hearing this, Taoist Hu Jun roared angrily, his eyes flashed with golden light, and his body erupted with yellow and black flames, as if he was ready to fight back with his life.
What he pounced on was not Langya Lord Zheng Xian, but the golden stove cauldron not far away.
From Taoist Hu Jun's point of view, everyone in the field is like ants to Langya Jun, but the golden tripod is extraordinary, and the purpose is to make the opponent throw a rat weapon.
"Ha!" Zheng Xian chuckled, raised his white luan tail and slapped Taoist Hu Jun.
In an instant, the Taoist, who was tall and had the appearance of a tiger, was blown up like a feather.
His tiger eyes suddenly lit up, looking like golden lamps. He twisted his body in the air, stretched out his arm, and grabbed the golden date where the big black god was in front of him.
When the yellow and black flames on Master Hujun's body collided with the five-color golden flames covering the golden date, the flames suddenly blazed brightly and filled the sky.
I saw bursts of stinking black smoke rising from this man's body, but he burned the golden dates with yellow and black flames without hesitation, and even clasped his hands like tiger claws, holding down the skin of the dates and tearing them apart hard.
However, after several attempts, he already knew that he could not break the jujube skin in an instant. A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he threw the golden jujube in his arms without hesitation, and kicked it towards Langya. In your direction, I flew backwards.
At this moment, Taoist Hu Jun's expression changed, and five-colored golden flames suddenly appeared in the acupoints all over his body, but in an instant, they burned into a burning man from the inside out.
At the same time, the golden jujube where the Great Black Ming God was was stopped in mid-air by Bai Luan's tail fan. The skin of the jujube melted suddenly, and the black gold calamity fire shaped like a magical bird suddenly protected the master. The one in the middle was melted by the golden sword of the setting sun. The ferocious head that was nailed exploded, and brilliant golden flames poured out of its cavity.
Five-colored golden flames attacked internally and externally, wrapping the Great Black God and the Tribulation Fire in them, burning them with a sizzling sound.
For a moment, the tiger wailed and the sacred bird mourned. Taoist Tiger Lord and the great black god rolled around in the air, looking extremely miserable because there were also flames coming out of their mouths and noses. In addition to roaring, they could not even say a word for mercy. Unable to speak.
Gradually, the five-colored golden flames on their bodies became connected with those that originally enveloped the golden cauldron and golden jujubes, making them appear bright and warm.
The golden gas clouds and smoke in the golden cauldron became more and more turbulent. Cloud snakes, fog tigers and three-legged golden toads were floating and rolling in it, looking extremely happy.
Seeing the two great monks of the Fourth Realm doing this to burn the cauldron, Anfeng Hou Ding Chengyuan's face turned pale, sweat dripped down his forehead, but he didn't even have the courage to plead for his concubine.
Not long after, Taoist Hu Jun, who had been seriously injured, turned into ashes first.
As the ashes of the calamity dispersed and the golden flame gradually extinguished, a flag flag suddenly emerged from it. As soon as it appeared, it rose into the sky and tried to fly away.
Everyone looked up and saw that the flag was emitting a soft clear light. It was only three feet long. On the yellow flag was a white tiger with black stripes. It was dressed in five colors and had a tail longer than the body. It was clearly a Zaowu.
"A companion weapon spirit?"
Lord Langya had a look of surprise on his face, and he quickly waved his white luan tail, and a stream of multicolored golden flames surged up, covering the small flag.
The clear light around Xiaoban suddenly lit up, but he did not do anything else, but he was actually surrounded by five-colored golden flames in the air.
Lord Langya raised his head and looked at it for a moment, then shook his head and said: "If Zheng guessed correctly, this is the most majestic Zuowu flag in the ancient heaven. It is used to convey orders or to disperse troops. Because of Zuowu It is a benevolent beast that will not kill. Anyone who sees this flag must stop fighting if he hears the emperor's order. It is said that even those ignorant soldiers who were kidnapped by the rebels will abandon their weapons and disperse like birds and beasts when they see this flag."
"Even Zheng had only read about this Zuowu banner in ancient books, and this was the first time he had seen it in real form! That Taoist Tiger Tiger was so obsessed with the way of tigers, cannibals, and ghosts that his spirituality was covered in dust, and even his own blood was covered in dust. There is a hidden side of Zuowu Ban that you don’t even know, and even after you reach the fourth level of cultivation, you still can’t get the approval of the weapon spirit. It’s really sad!”
As he spoke, Lord Langya withdrew his gaze from the Zuowu banner weapon spirit, looked at the three young men and said, "These companion weapon spirits always choose their own masters, and Zheng
You can only stay for a while. Is there any of you three who has never killed a living person? Especially one who has never killed a sentient being? 》.z.br>
Qi Jingzhi and others looked at each other and immediately shook their heads.
Langya Jun also shook his head and asked again: "Is there anyone who has never killed anyone?"
This time, the three young people were obviously hesitant, but after a moment of silence, they all shook their heads again without exception.
Seeing this, although Langya Jun was not very surprised, he still couldn't help but sigh.
He pondered for a moment, and although he had given up hope, he still asked: "Is there anyone who kills someone with a clean heart and no murderous thoughts?"
This question was even more unbelievable, and the three young people immediately shook their heads very simply.
Lord Langya smiled helplessly and waved his fan regretfully, dispersing the golden flames around the Zuowu banner weapon spirit.
I saw this clear little flag floating in the air, and then suddenly turned into a stream of light, rushing straight towards the back garden of Baiyun Palace.
Everyone was looking around, and suddenly they heard an extremely weird beast roar coming from that direction. At first it was frightening and angry, like a tiger's roar, but then it turned into a high-spirited and extremely joyful neighing of a horse.
The three young people couldn't help but look at each other, with both laughter and laughter in their hearts.
