I am the main soul in the soul banner

Chapter 376
Maybe what they killed last time was not a tiger demon who broke into the county and caused trouble.

But the old county magistrate.

The more Chi Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that his guess was right.

"What's wrong with this world?"

"I'm crazy, or the court is crazy. Why did the court send spirits to become the local parent officials?" Chi Xuan murmured softly, his eyes full of shock.

His eyes touched the tall jackal corpse on the tower.

Different from ordinary beasts, most of the county lieutenant's body is still humanoid, but the fur on his body has become the appearance of a jackal, and even the huge head has become a ferocious animal head.

"Spirits? Monsters?"

Chi Xuanben was still in the panic after killing the official, and suddenly learned the identity of the county magistrate, and heard Tu Shanjun say their identity as the county magistrate, and immediately fell into deeper suspicion.

"Yao Dao killed the county lieutenant!"

I don't know which arrester it was, but the loud voice seemed to pierce the night, awakening the guards and the surprised soldiers.

Many of them have participated in the siege and suppression of tiger demons, so they naturally know Chi Xuan's abilities.

In addition, last time Chi Xuan led people to rush around the city in a high-profile manner, and later it was rumored to be miraculous.

You know what you know, but you are not too scared.

Serving as a soldier is paid, and what they do is to work for the court. How dare they disobey the order of the county lord.

However, when Chixuan's body shield was propped up to block the powerful bow and crossbow, they knew that what they were dealing with was not ordinary strange people or monsters.

"The demon way, the poor way?"

Chi Xuan laughed, today's shock was so strong that he really didn't have the mood to explain more.

This is the collapse of the worldview, and all cognitions are being subverted.

"This seat has discovered an interesting thing." Tu Shanjun's voice sounded in Chi Xuan's ear, and there was a little expected indifference in that voice.

Before Tu Shanjun could say anything more, the incense fire above Jicheng was already stirring.

A figure flew over through the air.

The man was dressed in a green official uniform, wearing a black gauze with wings on his head, hovering in the air with his hands behind his back,
He stared at Chi Xuan on the tower with blazing eyes: "Yao Dao, killing an official of the imperial court is a serious crime, and you want to rebel, can't you?"

The three bright moons were concealed in the clouds under the cover of the incense.

The coercion surrounding magistrate Hu was revealed at this moment.

Huang Huang's general situation is like the clouds falling from the sky and pressing down on the top of his head.Chi Xuan felt that what he was facing was not a county magistrate Hu at all, but a city.

He didn't know why he felt this way.

But the matter has come to this point, and the right and wrong cannot be explained clearly in a few words.

Turning his wrist, Chixuan said frankly: "Before you became the county magistrate, I, Chiyang Palace, had been giving alms for many years."

The county magistrate Hu showed grief, and feigned anger, "I asked the county lieutenant to ask you to find out the truth, but I didn't expect you to do something like this. Relying on your own supernatural powers, you killed the county lieutenant of this county."

"Killing an official is treason, what else can Chi Xuan have to say."

The magistrate Hu's words hadn't finished yet, another flash of spiritual light suddenly jumped over the soldiers and appeared on the city wall.

Chi Xuan followed the light and saw the face of the person coming.

The man was dressed in strong attire, a black official robe with embroidered lace, a token utensil hanging from his waist, and a long sword on his back.Her long black hair was tied up with a scarf and covered with black gauze without a hat wing.

Chi Xuan recognized the person.

It was the small banner officer of Jiangmo Yamen, and they had fought side by side.

Wei Wei cupped his hands, and said with the same complicated expression: "General Chang."

Chang Xun didn't hold it too high, but replied: "The Taoist priest's cultivation is fast, and I admire it very much."

To Chi Xuan's surprise, Chang Xun's attitude towards him didn't seem to be as bad as he imagined, but instead had a faint sense of closeness.The small flag officer is transferred from Shangfang County, so they rarely meet each other.

Moreover, Chi Xuan thought that they were just talking politely, and the two did not have a deep friendship.

Seeing Chang Xun, Chi Xuan remembered when they stopped the tiger demon again, and glanced back at the jackal county lieutenant behind him, asking, "Devil Lord, is he also a monster?"

"It's not."

How could Tu Shanjun not hear the tension in Chi Xuan's voice.

He didn't pretend to be a fool either, but told Chi Xuan the facts, and continued: "From the memory of that jackal spirit, it seems that the Subduing Demon Yamen are normal human monks."

Chi Xuan heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this, and he felt a heavy burden in his heart let go.Fortunately, not all monsters and ghosts he faced, Da Cang Dynasty still had normal monks.

The Jiangmo Yamen and the government are two systems.

The government practiced the method of gathering incense, while the monks in Jiangmo Yamen were traditional Qi practitioners. They were not contaminated with incense, and they did not practice the method of gathering incense.

The specific reason is not something a small county lieutenant can know.

According to Tu Shanjun's speculation, it should be caused by the negative impact of the incense wish power.

Some monks who practice the way of incense will be backlashed by even larger incense as their own strength grows, and they will eventually become enchanted and lose their minds.

Everyone has a different threshold, and if you cross this threshold, you will become an incense demon.

The purpose of cultivating traditional monks in Jiangmo Yamen should be to kill the incense demon.

Although traditional monks also have the risk of becoming enchanted, compared with monks who absorb the power of incense and fire, their probability of becoming enchanted is smaller, and their cultivation base strength is stable enough.

Practice step by step, and there will be no major problems.

Incense monks are even more troublesome. Not only must they have a good idea, but they must also have a magic weapon to suppress the incense, and they must have a high tolerance threshold, otherwise they will easily become an incense demon.

The imperial court of the Great Cang Dynasty made a good plan. The grassroots bureaucrats used spirit monsters, which could be used as waste after death, and then used traditional human cultivation to restrain monsters.At the same time, Jiangmo Yamen inspects the demons and ghosts in the world to prevent them from causing chaos.

Really formed a very complete system.

I just don't know what kind of state those high-ranking officials, officials in frontiers, or officials in the court are like.

Chi Xuan looked directly at Chang Xun and said, "General Chang, Pindao didn't poison him, he was killed just out of defense. In that case, if he wasn't killed, Pindao might die here instead."

He didn't know why he had to explain.

Maybe it was because he knew that the other party was a human cultivator, so Chi Xuan didn't want Chang Xun to misunderstand him.

Chang Xun glanced at the corpse of the jackal lying on the tower.

It was a mostly humanized wolf spirit, but there were no waves in his eyes, just like when he stabbed the neck of the tiger demon.

Chang Xun took out a small booklet, opened the pages and wrote while saying: "Guo County Lieutenant was incensed and killed by a strange person in this county. According to the law of the Great Cang, it is a legitimate defense. There is no such thing as murdering an official for rebellion."

County Magistrate Hu stared angrily, and shouted angrily, "Lord Chang, you are confusing black and white."

Chang Xun took out a token from his pocket and threw it to magistrate Hu.

He said in a cold voice: "You can find out the signs of incense burns, otherwise why would I come here. As for why he is incensed, do you need to explain clearly?"

County magistrate Hu rolled his eyes and dodged his eyes, but he still said sharply: "It's just a sign of being possessed by a demon, it's not considered an incense demon, and it can't be counted by the Law of the Cang."

Incense is Da Cang's tax, how could these low-level officials not take some to eat.

With the improvement of cultivation base, the problem that comes with it is that the incense contained is close to its own threshold.

However, few people can control themselves not to be greedy for incense.

Incense means cultivation, but also means resources.

Incense is needed for up and down dotting.

He didn't want to stay in this broken county all his life, he didn't want to stay in this position for decades, and in the end, because of his lack of cultivation, his life span was limited and he turned into a handful of loess.

It's okay to bury it casually, but I'm afraid that the subduing demon yamen will have to tear apart the skin and bones before dying.

So they need incense, but also need to store incense, and use incense to open up and down joints.As long as you slowly absorb the incense, restrain yourself, and when your official position is high, you will be able to obtain a way to suppress the backlash of the incense.

"Magistrate Hu wants to argue with this official about the law of the heavens descending from the devil?"

As he said that, Chang Xun waved his hand at Chi Xuan, signaling Chi Xuan to leave first, and he stayed to continue entanglement with County Magistrate Hu.

"He can't go!"

"This officer has found out the truth, he can leave."

County magistrate Hu said sharply: "Chang Xun, I must submit a copy to the court for you!"

"up to you."

Chang Xun didn't bother to act any more: "Anyway, don't wait until you meet me when you're possessed."

"you……"

County magistrate Hu immediately became angry, and the mana transformed from the incense surged through his body. Jicheng, who was behind him, was surrounded by an aura of inspiration, and locked on Chi Xuan and Chang Xun, but in the end he held back and did not make a move.

He couldn't come up with a secret imperial order.

If the secret order is leaked from him, the imperial court will be the first to ask him to die.

Moreover, he could not do anything to Chang Xun.

If he, the eighth-rank county magistrate, had a fight with the Jiangmo Banner officer, he would definitely be the one who got hit in the end.

Chi Xuan didn't know about these twists and turns, seeing that magistrate Hu was about to make a move, he immediately clenched his magic sword tightly.

He is not afraid of magistrate Hu now.

The coercion of magistrate Hu is indeed tyrannical, but not as strong as the green robed monk in the cave.

County magistrate Hu snorted coldly, his face was gloomy and he didn't say much: "Retreat!"

After finishing speaking, he took the lead to leave on the long road of incense.

"Thank you, General Chang, for helping the poor..." Chi Xuan didn't finish speaking, just seeing Chang Xun throwing Guo Xianwei's body into the Nawu Talisman, he didn't know what to say for a while.

"You are Welcome."

Chi Xuan felt that it would be better to have a big fight, but now he was worried that Chang Xun would be punished by the yamen for this incident: "But, wouldn't this make it difficult for General Chang?"

"The Jiangmo Yamen has its own laws and regulations."

After tidying up the corpse, Chang Xun got up and said in surprise, "After so many years, the Daoist Priest's strength has improved a lot, and even I can't see through it."

Chi Xuan hastened to be humble: "It's just a little coincidence."

Chang Xun could hear Chi Xuan's modesty, so he didn't delve into it, but cupped his hands and asked: "Is the Taoist priest willing to join the Yamen, and I am willing to be the Taoist priest's guarantee."

"To tell the truth, the Taoist priest, if such a powerful person as the Taoist priest joins the Jiangmo Yamen, there will be a lot of benefits for me. Moreover, the Taoist priest doesn't think that staying in this small place is a waste of his cultivation?"

"I'm a true cultivator, so I should use this body to subdue demons and protect the people."
