Daluo gave birth to the three qi of Xuan Yuanshi, which turned into the three clear heavens: the first is the clear realm of Qingwei Tianyu, which is formed by the primordial qi; the second is the clear realm of Yuyu heaven, which is formed by the primordial qi; the third is the Taiqing realm of Dachitian, which is formed by Xuanqi. As a result, from then on the three qi are generated.
'Yuqing Yuanshi Tianzun, Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun, Taiqing Daode Tianzun', these three gods are naturally transformed by the three qi.
"On the fourth day of next month, the summer solstice happens to be the birthday of the Shangqing Lingbao Tianzun. The emperor will set up a dojo in Emperor Qiu for forty-nine days to pray for good weather in the Ning Dynasty and peace for the country and the people." Yun Qi pointed at Lu Anran, "Here it is for you Jixia Palace students. Let’s take a big vacation and go together.”
Lu Taotao grabbed the branches and made a swing. People floated here and there, and asked: "Does the Taoist do this? What are they?"
"Set up offerings, worship, burn incense, and recite sutras." Su Ji took a sip of tea, holding the tea bowl in his palm and said, "And eat noodles."
Mo Yan swallowed what was in his mouth, "Do gods eat noodles on their birthdays?"
Lu Taotao curled his lips and said, "Why do Taoist priests do this, instead of competing with the monks? I thought they were playing with fire and water with a peach wood sword."
Guanyue twitched her face, "That's a Taoist priest who catches monsters."
Lu Anran's focus was on the other side, "Are all the students from Jixia Palace going? Are you going too?"
"The Emperor wants you to experience some Dharma and enlightenment." Yun Qi bent his elbow inward and pointed at himself with the jade bone fan, "I have been ordered to investigate the case."
Diqiu County is affiliated to Huaiqing Prefecture. It is located directly south of the royal capital. It is hilly, facing mountains and hugging rivers, with strong folk customs and complex terrain.
Su Ji thought for a moment and said: "The emperor placed the dojo in Emperor Qiu probably because there is Sanqing Mountain there."
"Sanqing Mountain? The home of the three statues in the Taoist temple?" Lu Taotao tilted his head.
Su Ji waved his hand, "Sanqing Mountain has been a place of Taoist cultivation for generations. Many people have attained Taoism and become immortals there and traveled westward. Because Sanqing is the founder of Taoism and has been worshiped all year round, over time that mountain became Sanqing Mountain."
Lu Anran: "I have read in a book that there are more than two hundred foggy days in Sanqing Mountain a year. The scenery is as beautiful as a fairyland, with strange peaks towering into the sky, rapids and waterfalls. It is known as dangerous in the east, strange in the west, unique in the south, and beautiful in the north."
The topic changed again. Yun Qi tapped the armrest of the chair with his backhand and said, "Well, in the future, I will add a yaksha cannibal to these introductions."
Lu Anran looked over, "What case did you investigate?"
Lu Taotao: "What is Yaksha?"
Su Ji grabbed the tea lid and placed it on the edge of the tea bowl. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Yaksha, the rumored monster that eats people and eats ghosts."
"This kind of local case should not be investigated by local county officials, so why is it handed over to the Criminal Division?" Lu Anran asked.
Yun Qi sat up a little and flicked the hem of his bullet jacket with his hand, "It was originally like this, but didn't it turn out that the emperor moved the dojo to Emperor Qiu? The prefect of Huaiqing Prefecture said that he had insufficient manpower and limited abilities, so he couldn't take care of both. I sincerely ask the Emperor to send someone to assist.”
Lu Taotao said happily: "This man is interesting. Officials are not afraid that the emperor will think they are not good enough, but he is rushing to do it."
Su Ji smiled: "It's different. The previous magistrate of Huaiqing retired in 2000, and he only took office more than a month ago."
In other words, no matter how many people Yasha had eaten in front of him, it had nothing to do with the newly appointed prefect of Huaiqing. He had to take care of the security of the Sanyuan Palace dojo and solve the case, so the lack of manpower was totally justified.
"My prince remembers that the former prefect of Huaiqing was an honest man, but now this one looks like..." Yun Qi raised the corner of his mouth, "Slick and smooth."
There has been such a thing as a 'divine fox', Lu Anran thought that it was more likely man-made than gods and monsters, "Has anyone seen a yaksha eating a human or a missing person who has not been found?"
Yun Qi raised a finger and nodded, "To get to the point, those people disappeared overnight for no reason and never appeared again."
"Since none of the missing people have been found, why do you say it was Yaksha who ate people?"
Yun Qi turned over the file handed over by Huaiqing Mansion and said, "This is about the last woman to die."
There was a wealthy family in Diqiu County whose surname was Zhou. He gave birth to a daughter named Zhou Pei, who was upright and very beautiful.
"When Miss Zhou is of marriageable age, Mrs. Zhou is reluctant to let her daughter marry far away, so she finds her a family with a similar family in this county." Yun Qi leaned his face on his palms and said lazily: "The girl's family naturally has to prepare some things for the marriage. , she took her maid to the streets."
Lu Taotao's melon seed peels flew all over the place, and he said disdainfully: "Then she met a handsome scholar on the way, and then they had a poignant love affair with a human-monster. As a result, the human-monster took a different path, and Yaksha ate Miss Zhou in a rage."
Mo Yan was shocked, "How did you know?"
Lu Taotao shrugged, "Isn't that what all the playbooks say?"
"No, that's not to say this is the last person to die. Yaksha was also cannibalizing people before him." It doesn't make sense that Ms. Zhou would start a relationship with a shemale.
Lu Taotao blinked his big eyes, "Maybe they are ugly?"
Mo Yan surrendered and fell to the ground in admiration.
Yun Qi pushed the two of them away with the jade bone fan like a puppy, "Miss Zhou encountered something on the road, but it was not a handsome scholar, but a gust of evil wind."
Lu Taotao came back and said, "Look, the demon wind is coming, are the demons still far away?"
"At that time, there was a strange wind and heavy fog appeared around. The two of them were blown to the ground and fainted. When they woke up, they did not go to the market and went directly back home."
After returning, the maid told the truth about what happened on the way. Mrs. Zhou also cooked Miss Zhou a soup to relieve her shock. After eating it, she went to bed early the day after tomorrow.
"In the middle of the night, there was a strange noise coming from Miss Zhou's room. Mrs. Zhou happened to go there because she was worried about her daughter. She heard the noise and opened the door..."
All pairs of eyes were on Yun Qi, and they were a little dissatisfied when he stopped. You should speak up quickly.
"Let me first tell you what this movement is."
"Tch~" Lu Taotao made no secret of his disdain.
Yun Qi narrowed her peach blossom eyes and lowered her voice a bit, "Mrs. Zhou first heard a dull sound, like something hitting the ground, and then there was a crisp sound, like the clicking sound made by cats and dogs eating bones. "
The atmosphere was inexplicably tense, and Yun Qi's unhurried tone made people anxious, "Mrs. Zhou opened the door with doubts, saw the scene in front of her, screamed, and then fainted on the ground."
Lu Taotao lay back, "After all, you should make it clear."
Su Ji saw the hint of a smirk on Yun Qi's lips and thought to himself: This man is playing tricks on purpose.
After having enough fun, Yunqi Shi Shiran said: "Miss Zhou was sitting on the bed with disheveled hair, eating. When she raised her head, she was chewing a piece of meat in her mouth. What she was grabbing was clearly a human arm, and on her legs, there were There is a stump of a limb, and you can even see the fingers clearly. There is a ball-shaped thing on the floor in front of the bed, with hair on it, it is a person's head!"
Mo Yan looked at the round cake in his hand and found it a little hard to swallow.
Lu Taotao rolled over on the ground, "When Zhou Pei was blown by the demon wind, he was eaten by the demon. Then Yasha turned into her and went back to eat the maid again?"
"That's half right." Yun Qi snapped his fingers, "The maid was eaten by a monster, but Zhou Pei didn't die. Later, the Zhou family found someone in the cave next to the place where Zhou Pei disappeared, but the person was already a little crazy. "
Lu Anran was silent for a moment, "Where did the monster go?"
"After being discovered by Zhou's family, he turned into a puff of smoke and ran away."
"Something is unreasonable." Lu Anran said: "Since he can kidnap Miss Zhou, why not just eat all the Zhou family members and run away instead."
Lu Taotao nodded, "Yes, the monsters are here. There are some magics in your body, why should you be afraid of a few little mortals."
Yun Qi was even more surprised, "Do you want to reason with monsters?"
However, he still explained that it turned out that the Zhou family worshiped Sanqing and invited Sanqing tablets to come out that day, so Yasha was scared away.
"That Miss Zhou was sometimes normal, saying that the monster had blue skin, a green face, fangs, hands and feet like eagle claws, and wings on its back; sometimes she was so crazy that no one could even remember her, so the Zhou family had to lock her in the study room in the backyard."
After everything was said, everyone still couldn't believe why a monster suddenly appeared.
As a widower, Lu Anran was more concerned about the corpse, "Did the others die in the same way as Miss Zhou's maid?"
Yunqi nodded: "They have all been chewed up, their limbs are missing, and their bodies are all broken apart."
Mo Yan gritted his teeth, not sure whether he was afraid or excited, "There really are monsters."
Lu Taotao held his face in his hands and said, "I want to catch one as a pet."
Su Ji touched his chin, "There are many folk magic techniques, but you still have to see them with your own eyes before you can make a conclusion."
"That's right." Yun Qi stood up and said, "In three days, we will set off for Diqiu!"
—
While Yun Qi and others were discussing Yaksha, Nangong Zhi and Qi Shang went to the military camp.
This time when they went to Diqiu, the emperor ordered that, except for Yunqi going to Huaiqing Mansion to investigate the case, Nangongzhi would be in charge of the entire dojo affairs, and Qi Shang would be responsible for the guard function.
In order to balance the manpower in each military camp, the emperor asked the two men to draw 1,000 people from each of the three camps to temporarily form a royal guard of 3,000 people, under Qi Shang's control.
Everyone with eyes can see that the emperor finally began to reuse Qi Shang again after he was successful in defeating the southwest bandits. This young general has a bright future.
As for Nangong Zhi, the young Master Shaofu has always been favored by the emperor, so there is nothing to make a fuss about.
It is worth mentioning that Captain Qian was among the troops sent by the Langshan Camp this time. When he saw Nangong Zhi’s jade tree facing the wind, he secretly whispered to Qi Shang, “Nangong Shaofu’s name is like thunder, and he is well-deserved. This time he finally Be reliable for once. Don’t be like last time, a dandy prince brother who can’t do anything.”
Qi Shang patted his shoulder and said, "Prince Yun still wants to go with us."
Captain Qian: "..." The sky fell.
The two separated in the capital city and prepared separately.
Qi Shang returned to the house at a fast pace. Before he entered the room, Qi's father came over in two or two steps and said, "Yi Zhi, please wait a moment."
"Father." Qi Shang thought of something, "Can the marriage with the Su family be cancelled?"
Qi's father raised his hand and pressed it, "I was just about to tell you that this marriage cannot be canceled."
"Why?"
"The Su family daughter is not at fault, and you are not guilty either. What reasons and excuses do you want me to give?" Father Qi looked at him with tiger eyes when he saw him being so angry.
Qi Shang frowned, he couldn't speak directly, it would be easy to slander the reputation of other women, so when he came back, he only said that he was a martial artist who couldn't get something that was elegant and elegant. He was afraid of delaying the girl of the Su family, and let her father think about it. It was better for the two of them to decide. There is no such thing as a marriage.
Seeing what Qi Shang wanted to say, Qi's father took the first step and stuffed something over and said, "Speak slowly, the Su family sent a message asking you to go to Hu Xin Xiaozhu tomorrow afternoon to discuss your own marriage." After that, he waved his hands and left.
Qi Shang lowered his head and looked at Juanxiu's handwriting. He saw that it was written by Su Xiangxiang. In addition to doubts, there was also a little lingering fear in his mind.
