"this……"
Seeing that Daochenghuang was shattered on the ground just because he recited a poem, and died more neatly than shopkeeper Cheng and old man Lingfeng, Lishan Guangye was dumbfounded: "The poison in the human heart of the world is so bad!"
He shook his head slowly, with a look of great regret: "No wonder they say that the Shinto way is difficult. This city god cannot be granted the title by the king. Although he is much more relaxed and relaxed than the imperial god, there are far more dangers in it. ten times?"
Just as Lishan Guangye spoke, the black and white cat-faced maidservants suddenly screamed in unison, their bodies flickering like candles in the wind. The other two black and white road gods shaped like long poles made crackling noises all over their bodies. There is a rotten and moldy smell emanating from the cracks.
On the other table, four kobolds carrying chariots quietly disintegrated without saying a word, each turning into a ball of black smoke that changed in shape.
Looking at this posture, Dao Chenghuang is deeply involved with the Dao Jing Lu monster under his command. It is obvious that both are harmed and prospered.
Because of this, the black and white road gods of Budai Jian and Niutouya were captured by Qi Jingzhi. The power of Daocheng Huang was immediately greatly reduced, and he could no longer frighten Gao Tianzhang and other mountain spirits.
Now that Daochenghuang was cursed by an allegorical poem and died suddenly, the remaining two pairs of black and white road gods and four kobolds were even more miserable and were about to die involuntarily.
Soon after, the two pairs of black and white road gods who were dying suddenly stood up and rushed towards the black gauze crown and crimson official robe left by Daocheng Huang.
It's a pity that the Heaven and Earth Xuanjian was faster than them, and turned into a bright stream of light, landing on the wooden bench where the Daocheng God was previously.
The two pairs of black and white road gods suddenly stopped in mid-air, and then turned around without thinking and rushed towards the table of kobolds.
This time everyone had a share, and they had a tacit understanding. They each selected a ball of black energy, swallowed it in the blink of an eye, and wiped it clean.
Most of the evil energy in their bodies has dissipated, and they need to replenish it now, which can be regarded as a temporary relief. However, it is still a drop in the bucket, and the whole body has already been leaking air everywhere, which is of no help at all.
The two pairs of black and white road gods originally had a very close relationship. When they entered the door, the two cat-faced maids held two long poles in their hands. However, in order to live a little longer, they only paused for a moment and did not hesitate. The people began to fight against each other.
But before they could decide the winner, Tiandi Xuanjian had already followed, circled around the two pairs of black and white road gods who were twisted together, and swallowed them into the mirror without any effort. It was like a mantis. Catching cicadas and oriole behind.
Qi Jingzhi noticed that Daocheng Huang's official uniform was still in place and had not been swallowed up by the Xuanjian of Heaven and Earth.
This mirror spirit with great origins just stopped briefly on the broken corpse and relics of Daocheng Huang, and then without hesitation, it aimed its spearhead at the two pairs of black and white road gods.
At this time, most of the spirits in the lobby had withered away.
The Lu Shen lineage was the most miserable, and they all died.
Apart from the Golden Ping Boy, all the mountain spirits had only three pieces of deceased clothing left. They were huddled together and shivering. Most of their energy was focused on the official uniform of the Daocheng God, faintly revealing the sadness of the death of a rabbit and a fox.
The Xuanjian of Heaven and Earth was reflected in the sky, and immediately Shi Shiran flew back, obviously leaving behind the official uniform of Daocheng Huang.
Upon seeing this, Fu Da immediately let go of the Jin Ping child's head, boldly ran over to pick up the black gauze crown and crimson official robe, and ran back with a face full of joy to offer the treasure.
Qi Jingzhi calmly took out the general's evil feather arrow, picked up the black gauze crown with the arrowhead, and held it up in front of his eyes for a closer look.
After a cursory inspection, he only felt that this official hat had a strong aura, with a little mixed and impure incense, divine power, and official aura coming second. The most rare thing was a unique aura that seemed familiar, which reminded him of that time. The good fruit produced by Zhangshu Niang with the merits of incense - red shrimp seeds.
Qi Jingzhi suddenly realized: "This set of official uniforms is not the real body of Daocheng Huang, but a condensed incense similar to red shrimp seeds. There is no spirituality in it. No wonder Tiandi Xuanjian, who has always been vegetarian and has a great appetite, is Converted."
"Furthermore, Daocheng Huang's death was too sudden, and his body was shattered so completely that even the Xuanjian of Heaven and Earth could not react."
Lishan Guangye came closer, carefully looked at Daocheng Huang's relics, and said in his mouth: "If you ignore the toxicity contained in it, this set of official uniforms can be regarded as a rare and rare item. It is quite beneficial to the ghosts and gods of the underworld. Buddha There are also many wonderful uses in Taoism. Even if a mortal wears it for a long time, there may be a chance that the soul will change and become like a Yin god. After death, he can work in the Yin Dynasty. "
Qi Jingzhi heard something in his words, and after a moment's thought, he asked: "You mean...this official uniform will be of great use to Master Meng?"
Lishan Guangye nodded: "Brother, please don't take this kind of wild city god seriously. Although it has no imperial title, it has received the incense of the people for many years in the name of the city god. As the saying goes, there are still three pounds of nails in a rotten ship. Rotten wood can also be used as firewood.”
"Although it is said that once a mortal puts on this official uniform, he will surely live a short life and die early, but Master Meng used his yang body to exercise the power of the yin god, and it is obvious that he will follow the path of the yin god in the future. I will try my best to make more mistakes. Losing some of his yang life will make his future official career smoother and his life and yin blessings longer, so he must be happy."
Qi Jingzhi's heart moved when he heard this, and he subconsciously glanced at the three deceased clothes, with a somewhat evil look in his eyes.
Hu Da saw it from the side and couldn't wait to raise his arms and shouted: "Go! Kill these bad guys who are harmful to others!"
Before it even finished speaking, it had already charged forward like wolves and tigers with its six brothers who had been eager to try.
I don’t know how many years these seven little guys have watched the scene of village women hammering and washing clothes. They found the clothes of the deceased very unpleasant to them as soon as they entered the door. At this time, it was not easy to catch someone who was using his tricks in front of their benefactor. Opportunities are really exciting and everyone is brave.
The three clothes of the deceased huddled in the northwest corner of the lobby had long been frightened. Seeing this battle, they did not ask for mercy. They immediately entangled their sleeves with each other and got into a mess before they were surrounded and beaten by the spoke boys. He took the first step and rushed towards the tiger smoke cloud blocking the north. It seemed that he wanted to escape from the direction of the kitchen.
But before they could hit the tiger smoke cloud blocking the road, four small green hands first came out of the smoke cloud and grabbed hold of the three dead clothes. Then, several more flesh-winged flying tigers appeared and faced them. They pounce and bite.
The tiger evil smoke cloud that originally blocked the four walls of the lobby immediately shrank in that direction, and in an instant it became an airtight big ball of yellow-black evil energy.
The children in the car spokes were a step late. They gathered around the big evil spirit ball and looked at each other. Then they sighed and looked lost, and walked back three times, looking back.
Bannu, who was lying quietly on the ground, regained his energy. He couldn't help but stand up and looked up affectionately. Saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth and fell to the ground.
Ever since this guy tasted the taste of tiger evil in the jade chime, he has never forgotten it. Even if he knew that his internal organs would be frozen and the essence was stripped by the strange tiger evil in the chime, he still enjoyed it until there were more tiger evil in the smoke. After seeing the corpses of more than a dozen flesh-winged flying tigers, this guy became even more eager and salivating.
Qi Jingzhi snorted coldly, took a piece of Filial Ghost Grass fruit from the table, and blocked the guy's big mouth.
Bannu shook his head with some dissatisfaction, but he did not dare to refuse his master's kindness after all. He tried to take a bite, and his two big wet eyes immediately widened, and then he started chewing, obviously eating very much. Sweet.
Seeing its appearance, Qi Jingzhi immediately took another one and took a small bite. He felt that it was sweet, glutinous, and full of essence. It was indeed very delicious, and he felt a touch of admiration from it.
He briefly tasted it, and then thought about the origin of the Xiaogui Grass fruit. He knew that Gao Tianzhang was afraid that what he said earlier was not true, so he immediately lost the intention to continue tasting it.
So Qi Jingzhi put the fruit in his hand back on the plate, lowered his head and asked Fu Da: "Gao Tianzhang once said that Xiaoguicao was transformed by a teacher surnamed Yao in Jiashi County. Do you know where this teacher lived?" where?"
Although Fu Da was a little confused when he heard this, he still replied crisply: "Gao Tianzhang said that this happened in the past few days. Jiashi County is some distance away from Xiema Bridge. I guess the news has not reached here yet. Fortunately, Strange news like this can always fly, and I'm afraid it has already spread throughout Harvest County. You only need to go to the county and ask around, and you can easily find out."
When Qi Jingzhi heard Fu Da use "can run and fly" to describe an anecdote, Qi Jingzhi found it quite interesting and at the same time indescribably awkward.
Most people in the world like to listen to strange things and watch the excitement, so he cannot avoid being accustomed to them. At this moment, he has a vague premonition in his heart. Maybe one day in the future, he will encounter a piece of text, a sound, a piece of news, or even something unexpected. A strange spirit emerges from a bustle.
Qi Jingzhi suppressed this thought and said to the spoke boys who were looking at him eagerly: "Since you brothers call me your benefactor, I will send you two errands. One of them is to bring the filial piety grass fruit at tonight's banquet. Send it back to the Yao family and give it to the filial old mother."
As he spoke, he took out another hundred and eighty mountain coins from Hu Jun's jade box: "Take these coins with you, avoid the eyes and ears of ordinary people, and secretly bury them at the roots of Xiaogui grass. "
Hearing this, Jin Ping Boy suddenly spoke, his voice inexplicably dull: "Filial Ghost Grass is an extremely rare and exotic flower. The essence of the fruit it bears is so pure that even a monster like Daocheng Huang is tempted. What's more, Not to mention those secular officials who eat people without spitting out their bones, the Yao family will never be able to keep a treasure like this."
Without waiting for Qi Jingzhi's response, it continued: "It would be better to secretly bring the Yao family to live in Baqiu Mountain, and transplant the Xiaogui grass there as well. Under the care of my golden bottle child, it is enough to ensure that the old teacher's mother has a good death. !”
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi couldn't help but take a deep look at Jin Ping Boy.
This mountain spirit who claimed to be from the Beihong lineage of the Great Demonic Kingdom seemed vicious and murderous, but in fact he had never killed any innocent people. Instead, he was extremely filial to his mother and protective of his neighbors. Just now he killed Shu Yan Po. It can be regarded as handing in a letter of nomination.
With this in mind, Qi Jingzhi already believed 80% to 90% of Jin Ping's proposal to protect the mother of a filial son.
As for the so-called "Beihong came out and fought with swords", even if it is indeed true, if he uses things he has never done to judge crimes, it is really inconsistent with the law and reason, and he does not accept it.
As his thoughts turned, Qi Jingzhi gently nodded and said: "This is indeed a method, but you need to explain the interests and risks to the Yao family in advance. Do not act arbitrarily, otherwise you will do bad things with good intentions and not tell them, and you will make people resentful for nothing."
As he spoke, he pointed his finger towards the spokes: "Since you want to help the Yao family move, let these boys from the spokes follow you. It would be good if they can help."
As soon as these words came out, Jin Ping Boy was obviously relieved, knowing that his life was saved.
Immediately afterwards, it returned to its old ways and became lively again. It turned its head and glanced sideways at the supervisor, Fu Da, with a look of disdain on its face. It just opened its mouth, but did not dare to say no in the end.
The expressions of Fu Da and the six brothers on the side became more and more depressed, and there was a cry in the words: "Since our benefactor has given instructions, the seven of us should complete it ourselves. However, our benefactor refused to take us on the road. But is it useless to dislike me and other brothers?"
Seeing the appearance of the spoke boys, Qi Jingzhi helplessly looked at Lishan Guangye: "Are there any spirits serving as errands in the various government offices in the capital?"
Lishan Guangye babbled and nodded: "Of course there is. I heard that there is an old man who has lived for an unknown number of years in the East Treasury of the inner treasury. He is regarded as the 'God of Money' by the officials who manage the treasury." ', and it is also the last guard of the East Treasury."
"It is said that whenever the treasury is opened to collect and release money, the treasury officials will burn incense and candles in front of the old man and perform the ritual of bowing to the younger generation. If the etiquette is not perfect, not only will the treasury be unable to be opened, but the old man will be beaten with a bamboo stick. , Those who are hit by the stick will definitely have blurred vision and a splitting headache..."
Lishan Guangye paused, and then said concisely and concisely: "This is still an ordinary yamen. There are many more monsters in the Demon Suppressing Academy. As long as they are restrained effectively and no trouble is caused, no one in the court will take it seriously. .”
He did not go into details as to how the demons in the Demon Suppressing Academy had many methods and how they were restrained on a daily basis.
In fact, as soon as he heard the word "God of Money", Qi Jingzhi immediately remembered this.
Qian Xiaoren once mentioned that the reason why he was promoted to serve in the Imperial Household of Daqi was because a son of the Peng family offended the money god of Dongqianku and was beaten up and expelled. , and then the position of deputy envoy of the Treasury was vacated.
At that time, Qi Jingzhi only thought that the so-called God of Money was a righteous god enshrined by the king of the country. But according to the meaning of the Lishan Guangye dialect, the God of Money was actually a spirit that had been around for many years?
"If the Demon Suppressing Academy also uses spirits, and the imperial court has no taboos about this, then it shouldn't be considered unusual for Gouchen Academy to take in a few little spirits for errands... But some things must be stated in advance, so as not to prevent their brothers from doing so in the future. regret."
With this thought in his mind, Qi Jingzhi nodded towards Fu Da.
He knew that his smile would always turn ferocious through the Lingguan visor, so he had no choice but to show gentleness in his tone: "Since you brothers are so sincere, you can go to Gouchenyuan, the capital, to resume your duties after completing two errands." .”
"It's just that I don't want to hide it from you. Gouchen Yuan is the Emperor's personal army. From now on, he will probably have to bid farewell to Luan Yi, the superintendent of Chiyousi in the Demon Suppressing Academy. With your brother's background, it is inevitable that you will be involved." It is no exaggeration to say that good and bad fortunes are unpredictable.”
"If you know this, if you are still willing to work as an errand in Gouchen Courtyard, I will not turn you away."
The Seven Car Spoke Boys are the tools to clear the road and protect the car. They are domineering and domineering. They don't care about the risks involved. After hearing this, their expressions immediately turned to joy. The spokes even took the initiative to ask for help and said: "Please give me your instructions." Second errand!”
After Fu Da asked, he immediately bowed and worshiped. The other six followed suit and fell to the ground one after another, saying in unison: "Please give me your instructions!"
In their view, from now on, the brothers can not only follow their benefactor, but also have a future in the army of the king, which is really the best thing.
Qi Jingzhi felt a little helpless, but he couldn't help but be touched by the sincerity of these spoke boys.
He looked around the hall, sighing even more in his heart: "Tonight's banquet at Xie Ma Zhan ended unhappily, without a chopstick of food or a glass of wine, but I have seen all around this road and all the water and soil." The changes in the hearts of lovers in the world. Even a few little monsters have different faces, each with greed, anger and persistence."
Qi Jingzhi looked into his wide, clear eyes and suddenly smiled: "The world is full of chaos and desires, and we are living in this world, but being able to obey one's own heart and go straight is the supreme destiny!"
