In the kitchen.
After Qin Shaoyou withdrew his spiritual thoughts, he immediately went to burn a stick of incense on the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
Although his spiritual mind escaped successfully and no pursuers were found along the way, he still had to guard against the other party having some special means or supernatural items to pursue them all the way.
After all, the group of people in the Hanlin Academy are most likely masters of the editorial office.
As the sharp knife held by Emperor Jianwu himself, the Jishi Factory not only attracted many strange people and strangers, but was also equipped with many supernatural items with extraordinary effects.
To be on the safe side, it would be better to ask the Patriarch to help wash the floor and remove all possible traces.
The Patriarch of Jiutiandang Demon gave Qin Shaoyou an annoyed look, as if he was reluctant to help.
But since there was only one cook, and the pot was already hot, and there would be hot dishes to eat soon, the statue of the Patriarch had to compromise and reluctantly accepted the incense offered by Qin Shaoyou.
Qin Shaoyou felt relieved when he saw Ran Ran Qingyan being sucked into the belly by the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
As long as the Patriarch takes action, everything will be fine. Even if he did leave any traces, the people in the editing factory would never be able to find out, let alone target him.
In the kitchen, Qiurong, who was busy pounding bone powder, saw this scene, stopped the mallet in his hand, turned to look at Qin Shaoyou, his eyes full of concern and inquiry.
Qiurong was very smart. When he saw Qin Shaoyou suddenly offering incense to the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch, he knew something was going on.
Qin Shaoyou noticed Qiurong's gaze and smiled at her: "It's nothing important, don't worry."
Qiurong was relieved and continued to roll up her sleeves and pound the bone meal.
As for Fu Dou inside the stove, he had no idea what was going on. He just stuck out his tongue and kept spitting fire and refining oil. He only hoped that his hard work would allow Qin Shaoyou to spray two more fires on it.
Qin Shaoyou recalled the strange scenes he saw in the Hanlin Academy, but he had no clue.
After thinking for a while, he called Qin Qiaoer, Cui Yougui and Zhu Xiucai into the kitchen.
As soon as he entered the kitchen, Cui Youying sniffed hard a few times and looked directly at the stove.
"Sir, are you making a new dish? It smells so good!"
Qin Shaoyou hasn't started making bone pounding powder yet, and what fills the kitchen at this moment is the aroma of oil refining.
There is a barrier under the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch in the kitchen, so the aroma of oil cannot be smelled outside.
This fragrance is indeed very attractive, making people salivate at the base of their tongues when they speak.
"I'm making a new dish, but the portion is limited and I can't share it with you."
Qin Shaoyou glanced at the statue of the Patriarch of Jiutiandang Mo. He was afraid that the Patriarch would suspect that Cui Youxian wanted to steal food from his old man, so he hurriedly took out the Mandarin Duck Pot from the [Human Arsenal], slapped it away, and Cui Youxian stretched it out. After taking his hand, he handed it to Qin Qiaoer.
"Everyone has been working hard these days on the road. Let's cook a hot pot later. Xiucai, keep an eye on Brother Cui and don't let him touch my pot. I don't want the hot pot to turn into a frying pan."
Zhu Xiucai nodded in agreement.
Cui Yougui had a displeased look on his face.
After Qin Qiaoer took over the mandarin duck pot, he went straight to the point: "Shaoyou, you called us into the kitchen, but what did you find?"
"Yesterday, when I saw people from the editorial office escorting Mr. Yang to Beijing, I secretly put a little ink mark on Mr. Yang's body. Just now, I saw some strange things through that ink mark..."
Qin Shaoyou told Qin Qiaoer, Cui Youwei and others about his discovery.
After listening to Qin Shaoyou's story, Qin Qiao'er frowned. After thinking for a while, he analyzed: "It sounds like those officials are a bit lost. What makes them crazy and obsessed is what they copied and compiled. thing."
"I suspected so too."
Qin Shaoyou nodded and asked the question that confused him.
"It's just that I see that none of those officials are simple. It's not easy to make them crazy and obsessed. Brother Cui, do you know what kind of words can make these Confucian masters lose their minds and become such weird people? appearance?"
After Cui Youyou thought about it seriously, he shook his head and said, "I really don't know of any words that can have such power..."
He didn't know, but Zhu Xiucai made a guess.
"Could it be some kind of evil scripture? I read in the script that some demons and ghosts will send down evil scriptures to confuse others and develop them into their own followers."
Cui Yougui shook his head repeatedly: "It's not that there are such things as evil scriptures and magic books. But those who are deceived and confused by such things are all foolish men and women who have little knowledge and mental resistance.
But my lord has said that those who were imprisoned in the Hanlin Academy for copying and compiling books were all former high officials of the imperial court.
Scholar, you have also read books. When you know how well you read these imperial officials, it is impossible for ordinary evil scriptures and magic books to confuse them..."
However, before Cui Yougui could finish his analysis, he was interrupted by Zhu Xiucai.
"What if what these court officials copied and compiled were not ordinary evil scriptures and magic books, but special scripture meanings left behind by a crazy and possessed evil god like the big-eyed evil god we met before? For example? ...Is it related to immortality and immortality?”
After hearing Zhu Xiucai's guess, everyone's expressions changed.
This possibility is not impossible.
Xu Wei personally escorted the cultivator to the capital. Wasn't it because he had received the divine decree from Big Eyeball to offer Emperor Jianwu the secret technique of immortality?
And when the big eyes came, just one look made everyone uneasy and almost crazy.
It is not impossible that other possessed evil gods can send down classic allusions to make people lose their minds and become possessed.
As for Emperor Jianwu, it was well known that he longed to become an immortal and to live forever.
Thinking about it, only the scriptures about immortality and immortality could allow Emperor Jianwu to take the risk of uproar in the government and the public, and even the risk of hundreds of officials jointly asking for the abolishment of Taizu's stone monument, to bring down the emperor Yang Zongxian and Zhang Shilang. The officials detained him in the Hanlin Academy and copied and compiled the scriptures given by the evil god for him.
At this moment, everyone can even further analyze and conclude that the meaning of the scripture may indeed have some mysterious features, but at the same time it is also confusing and obscure.
Otherwise, Emperor Jianwu wouldn't have to take the risk to arrest and deceive hundreds of officials to copy and compile books for him...
Maybe he would have to rely on Baiguan's literary skills to decipher and translate it for him.
There's just one thing that Qin Shaoyou and the others can't understand.
Why did those crazy evil gods come to Emperor Jianwu one by one and want to give him the method of cultivating immortality and immortality?
You must know that the evil god who is crazy and possessed is not a kind person.
They definitely don't want to do good things by doing this, they must have evil intentions, and their plans are not small!
Reminiscent of Xu Wei once saying that if the big eyeball is sick, it needs to be cured by using human medicine...
Could it be that the evil god came to Emperor Jianwu just to exchange secret skills for human medicine?
