The Mystery of Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 36

The murderer in Taoist robes didn't expect Chang Yun to be so vicious, he wanted to kill them all without asking why, and in a rage, he brandished a knife and besieged Ji Hai.

Ji Hai didn't panic, the dagger in his left hand looked like a poisonous snake, and his moves were ordinary, but they couldn't be avoided by the murderer.

Swish, swish, four swords stabbed out, Ji Hai calmly retracted the sword and put it back into its sheath, the four people who were looking fierce just now were all lying on the ground, everyone's eyes were wide open, and blood spurted from the wound on the throat.

"Amitabha, Mr. Chang, why did you order your subordinates to kill without asking why?"

Chang Yun patiently explained: "Tianyuan Dao is the number one cult in Xia Kingdom. The Holy One issued a decree a few years ago. All Tianyuan Taoists are unforgivable sins, let alone they are still committing crimes." Full of killing intent.

Both the monk and Ning Zhu shuddered. Chang Yun had always been very easygoing along the way, but unexpectedly he was a killing god.

Ning Zhu helped the middle-aged scholar who was hunted down just now. The scholar was stabbed a few times, but the wounds were not very deep. He simply bandaged him and drank a few sips of water, but he was not seriously injured.

"Who are you? Why did the Tianyuandao people chase you down just now?"

The scholar looked at the people who had saved him, cupped his hands and said, "I'm from Anding County, my name is Fang Hen Shao, and I teach at the Township School."

Xiangxue is the lowest-level school in Xia Kingdom. It is generally established by the clan raising funds. The students are basically children around ten years old. This Fang Henshao should be a teacher because he failed the imperial examination.

Chang Yun continued to ask: "Then why were you hunted down by Tian Yuandao?"

Fang Hen Shao calmed down, and said: "Young Master, there is something unknown. Although Tianyuan Dao was banned by the imperial court, it has been repeatedly banned in the folk villages. They secretly recruited many believers under the guise of cultivating Taoism and becoming immortals. My mother-in-law is deeply involved in it."

The monk said thoughtfully: "Cultivating Taoism and becoming immortal is the most bluffing. Let alone ordinary people, don't even high-ranking officials dream of immortality every day?"

Fang Hen Shao nodded, "If it's just cultivating the Tao, I have no objection, but the people of Tianyuan Dao not only let the believers donate money, but also did something that both humans and gods are angry with."

When Fang Henshao said this, there was a trace of sadness in his eyes, "They have been recruiting boys and girls for the past two years, saying that they want them to gain spiritual consciousness and send them to overseas fairy mountains to practice. My boy is only ten years old, and he was also recruited My mother-in-law was delivered to them and has been missing since then."

The ordinary monk let out an "ah", as if he had thought of something terrible.

Chang Yun glanced at the monk suspiciously, and asked, "What happened next?"

Fang Henshao went on to say: "I was at my brother's place at the time. After hearing the news, I hurried to catch up with the carriage transporting the boy, but I saw it, but I saw it." At this point, Fang Henshao's two lines of tears flowed out, He caught up with the carriage, but saw the most unforgettable scene in his life.

"It was already midnight when I caught up with the carriage at a small pier by the Hun River. I saw several Tianyuan priests line up the boys and girls on the carriage one by one. Kill them on the spot, the leading Taoist said, saying that the weak and sick cannot be sacrificed, and told his subordinates not to accept these sick seedlings in the future."

After speaking, Fang Henshao cried with his headache in his arms, his body shaking violently.

Needless to say, Chang Yun and the others could have guessed what happened next. Fang Henshao was discovered by Tian Yuandao's people, and then chased and killed him all the way until he was rescued by Chang Yun and the others.

Chang Yun thought for a while and asked, "Do you know where their ship is heading?"

Fang Hen Shao shook his head. He was hunted down after he was discovered, and he had no chance to follow the ship.

"Does Tianyuan Dao have a dojo in Anding County?" Chang Yun knew that the matter was complicated, and his intuition told him that there might be a huge secret hidden behind it.

"There is indeed a dojo in our village, and there are usually more than a dozen Taoist priests in it."

"Bastard!" There was a roar, and everyone looked back, but it was an ordinary monk with straight eyebrows and angry eyes, obviously very angry.

"Under the heaven and earth, there are actually these pretenders who play tricks and ghosts to bring disaster to the village. The heavens can bear it, but the monk can't bear it. Let's go, kill these bastards, and let them know what it means when a monk is angry and blood flows like a river."

A very provocative speech made everyone stunned for a while, the monk ignored him, helped Fang Henshao into the carriage, and under Fang Henshao's guidance, he headed towards Tianyuan Dojo with a murderous look.

The ashram was in a village not far from the county seat, and the monk drove very fast in his rage, and he arrived at the entrance of the ashram in less than half an hour.

The monk flew up and knocked away two Taoist priests who were blocking him with one punch, and rushed into the courtyard, followed by Chang Yun and others.

There were more than a dozen Taoist priests gathered in the courtyard, and they were astonished when they saw the few people rushing in. The Taoist priest in charge saw Fang Henshao who came in last, and said angrily, "Mr. Fang, do you dare to come back?"

Fang Henshao saw the leader and scolded angrily: "Wu Yong, where did you get my son?"

Wu Yong sneered: "Your son? You should still care about yourself. Come on, kill him for me, just to be with his wife on Huangquan Road."

Fang Henshao was taken aback for a moment, it turned out that this group of Taoists didn't even let their own mother-in-law go, so they felt sad and wanted to fight Wu Yong desperately.

The Taoists showed their swords one after another, and surrounded Fang Henshao and his party.

The monk was furious, and shouted: "What a bunch of thieves pretending to be fools and ignoring people's lives, seek to beat them." He punched Wu Yong, and Wu Yong was startled. How could this monk be more domineering than himself, so he hurriedly resisted.I only felt a strong attack, and my body flew backwards involuntarily until it hit the wall, and blood spurted out from my mouth.

When the other Tianyuan Taoists saw that Wu Yong was knocked down by the monk's punch, they didn't care about Shang Hen Shao and others, so they swung their knives and slashed at the ordinary monk.The monk's fists were like cast iron. With each punch, a Taoist was knocked into the air. After a while, no one was able to stand up.

The monk dragged Wu Yong over like a dead dog, and asked loudly, "Tell me, where are you sending those boys?"

Although Wu Yong was seriously injured, his mouth was firm, "Baldy donkey, do you know who you messed with?"

The monk smiled: "Since the monk dares to meddle in this business, are you afraid that you will not be able to get revenge? Tell me."

"If you have the guts, kill me. As for the others, don't expect to hear a word from me."

The monk was furious, and slapped Wu Yong on the face. He was about to slap again, but Chang Yun stopped him.

"Monk, it's useless for you to fight like this, let me try. Chicken head, drag him to the back."

Ji Hai dragged Wu Yong by one leg and walked towards the backyard. Chang Yun stopped the monk who wanted to follow, "Monk, I advise you not to go with me, I don't want you to see too many dirty tricks."

The ordinary monk was stunned. Chang Yun's words were very sincere, but the content was different. . .

"What will Mr. Chang do to him?"

Chang Yun said calmly: "Of course I want to pry his mouth open." There was murderous intent in the calm words.

The ordinary monk's heart palpited for no reason, but he didn't have the courage to take half a step into the backyard.

In the backyard, Wu Yong looked up to the sky, looking at Chang Yun who was squatting aside.

"You know who I am?"

"Nonsense, how do I know who you are? Give me a good time, otherwise none of you will be able to escape when my Taoist brothers come to kill you."

Chang Yun smiled faintly: "My name is Chang Yun, and I am the head of the Department of Editing and Affairs of Yuan Pavilion."

Yuan Court?Wu Yong was completely dumbfounded. Why did the well-known head of Yuan Pavilion come to his small dojo?
Chang Yun opened a paper bag, and took out the contents to show Wu Yong, "There are five kinds of poisons inside, the first one is called spring breeze, after taking it, the whole body will itch, you will scratch the skin all over your body due to itching." .The second is called white bones. Drop a drop on your meat, it will corrode the meat and slowly expose your bones. The third is called Wenrouxiang. Doesn’t the name sound nice? Just take it and it will let you There will be piercing pain throughout the day, and it will become more and more painful. The fourth type..." The names of each poison are very gentle, but they are all extremely overbearing.

"You kill me." Wu Yong shouted in despair.

"I won't kill you, I will give you the best tonic to keep your consciousness awake, and then use all my poisons on you." Chang Yun's calm voice was devoid of any emotion.

"These medicines were given by one of my masters. I don't even have an antidote here, and no one in the world can explain it to you. Chicken head, tie him up and use medicine."

"No!"

A shrill scream.
