Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 921

Xu Zhiqiong arrested Zheng Chaotong, and after careful interrogation, he learned that this guy has a gluttonous and greedy seventh-rank cultivation, and in the Nufu Cult, he has a certain status and can govern a county.

After the first month, he received the oracle from Nuzu, promoted him to be the altar master of Yizhou, changed the Nufu religion to the Shengen religion, and devoted himself to developing the congregation.

Because a large number of original disciples in the sect disappeared, and occasionally met one or two of them, they also lost their impression of Nufu Cult. Zheng Chaotong was also worried about this matter.

But Nu Zu often gave a lot of money, Zheng Chaotong was reluctant to give up this benefit, and finally did not give up his teaching position.

Not only him, including Hu Rongku, both newcomers and oldcomers, are almost always driven by profit to stay in the teaching.

Hu Rong has been struggling all his life and failed to gain fame. He is 65 years old this year and is still a child student. He didn't even pass the exam for scholar.

The promise Zheng Chaotong made to him was that he would be selected as a scholar this year, and he would be selected as a candidate next year.

Although the entrusted scholar looked like a scholar, what he wanted was not fame, but a family business. Zheng Chaotong promised him that he would buy him an inn in Baixiangquan a year later.

There are very few people who are really reluctant to bear Nu Zu.

Regardless of the reason, these people will be dealt with as human teeth, and after interrogation, they will be reported to the Ministry of Punishment for beheading.

Qianniang skillfully conveyed Xu Zhiqiong's intentions to the counties in Zhuzhou, and the county magistrates naturally did not dare to disobey them in the slightest based on their status as internal history counselors.

What Xu Zhiqiong is most concerned about now is how did Zheng Chaotong get the oracle?
According to Zheng Chaotong's explanation, he got Nu Zu's response through a sacrifice.

Nuzu has fallen, even if he is dead but not dead, it is highly unlikely that he can respond to the believers.

This guy didn't tell the truth?

Xu Zhiqiong used the mantra and got the same answer.

"He's telling the truth." Xu Zhiqiong made a judgment.

"Don't be arbitrary, Zhiqiong, and let this guy do a sacrificial ceremony in front of us to see if Nuzu can respond. If he doesn't give a response, it will prove that this guy is lying. If he gives a response, let's follow the sacrificial ceremony to pursue, maybe You can get this guy out." Yang Wu gave different suggestions.

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head repeatedly.

Dude, you're bloated.

No matter what state Nuzu is now, he was once a true god.

Asking Zheng Chaotong to perform a sacrificial ceremony in front of Xu Zhiqiong was tantamount to letting Nu Zu's eyes lock onto Xu Zhiqiong.

Directly chasing back is tantamount to falling into Nuzu's trap.

In such a short period of time, Nu Zu must not have recovered, and the possibility of recovering [-]% is not high. In a real fight, Xu Zhiqiong may not be afraid of him.

But it's another matter if you fall into his trap.

"Then how do you deal with it?" Yang Wu couldn't think of a better idea.

Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment and said: "Give Zheng Chaotong to the magistrate, let the magistrate send someone to escort him to Beijing, hand him over to the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial, and wipe out all the mutant Nufu sects in Daxuan territory.

Take your time to go to the Qiancheng Kingdom again, and tell Old Chang to send out the magic machine to deal with the Nufu Cult of the Qiancheng Kingdom.
On Yu Xian's side, I'll go talk to Mo Chi, as for Mao Cha..."

Yang Wu curled his lips and said, "Leave Mao Sha alone, why do you still feel sorry for them?"

"Why do I feel sorry for Mao Sha? This is to prevent the ancestor Nu from being resurrected! Regarding Mao Sha, I will go to Shangguan Zhongzai and ask him to contact fellow Tunu to help deal with it. As for Fanxiao Kingdom... this matter depends on Master gone."

All of Xu Zhiqiong's concepts about Fanxiao Kingdom are only on paper, and the only person who is familiar with Fanxiao Kingdom is Ling Zhengzheng, and he doesn't know where he has gone.

After everything was properly arranged, Xu Zhiqiong swept around the territory of Zhuzhou again, reminding the judges of the Zhuzhou Punishment Division to vigorously wipe out the remnants of the Nufu Sect.

Zhiqiong and Qianniang left Zhuzhou, and after a short walk, they received a message from Tao Huayuan.

Liang Yuyao's fleet docked, sailed through the magic circle, and arrived in Huazhou.

The two parties agreed to meet in Chaizhou, and the next trip was much faster.Tao Huayuan teamed up with a group of onmyojis and quickly arrived in the capital using the magic circle.

When they reached the city gate, Liang Yuyao did not enter the city in a hurry.

Canglong Hall sent a message that before entering the city, Elder Canglong will come to test his cultivation.

This is a normal process. The cultivation of the mission may change after more than half a year. The head of the mission this time is a member of the royal family, and they must pass the cultivation test before they can enter the city.

Liang Yuyao didn't plan to hide it originally, and waited for the second brother to come.

The people from Yin Yang Division arrived first, and set up the Ruiming Pagoda.

But the second brother didn't come, and the one who came from the Canglong Hall was a man in his 20s, but this man's cultivation level is not low, and his real age is unknown for the time being.

Xu Zhiqiong had never seen this man before, so he asked Liang Yuyao, "Who is this man?"

Liang Yuyao shook her head and said, "I don't know him either."

This is strange.

The people in the Canglong Palace are all from the clan. This person doesn't even recognize Liang Yuyao?
Everyone present was wondering who this man was, only Liang Xianchun recognized him: "Is it Yushen?"

The man saluted and said, "I have seen my aunt."

Liang Xianchun said pleasantly, "When did you come back?"

The man smiled and said, "Counting today, it's the third day."

"The last time I saw you in Fanxiao Kingdom, it should be ten years now, right?"

"It's been 11 years," the man sighed, "Time really is not forgiving."

Liang Yuyao looked at the man and whispered, "Liang Yushen."

"Who is Liang Yushen?"

Liang Yuyao shook her head slightly and said, "I can't tell."

Hearing this name, he is a member of the clan, why Liang Yuyao still can't tell?
Right now is indeed not the place to talk, Xu Zhiqiong didn't ask any more questions.

Liang Yushen stepped forward to salute, "Yuyao, it's been a hard journey."

Liang Yuyao returned the courtesy and said, "Brother, why don't you see Elder Shengwei?"

Liang Xianchun scolded at the side: "Yuyao, what are you talking about? Why is it that it's not enough for Yushen to pick you up?"

Liang Yuyao forced a smile and said, "It's just a casual question, brother, don't worry about it."

Liang Yushen said: "Yuyao asked, according to the rules of etiquette, it is indeed the elder Shengwei who should come, but the elder Shengwei has left the Canglong Hall for nearly half a year. According to the rules of the Canglong Hall, the chief captain should return to the Canglong Hall immediately to take care of things in the hall. .”

What's the rule?
Xu Zhiqiong was confused, but Liang Yuyao didn't understand.

But Liang Xianchun understood.

This is indeed the rule of the Canglong Palace, a very unpopular rule.

There are eight captains in Canglong Hall, second only to the three elders.

These Eight Palace Captains spent most of their time in other countries as ambassadors, and Liang Xianchun was one of them, she was the Fourth Palace Captain.

When all the elders are not in the Canglong Palace, once the time exceeds three months, the first palace captain will be recalled to replace the elders and take charge of the Canglong Palace.

If the first captain had an accident and was unable to return to the Canglong Palace, the second captain would take his place. Under the second captain, there was the third captain...

Under normal circumstances, there are three elders in the Canglong Temple, and it is impossible for all the elders to not return in three months.

But the current Canglong Hall is not normal, there is only one elder, Liang Jixiong.

And Liang Jixiong has been missing since last autumn's harvest, more than three months ago, Liang Yushen is the first palace captain, so he temporarily took over Liang Jixiong's position as an elder.

Since it is in line with the rules, there is nothing to say.

The Ruiming Pagoda was placed in front of them, and everyone tested their cultivation one by one.

After seeing the style of Ruiming Pagoda, Xu Zhiqiong frowned, this thing is not easy to deal with.

This Ruiming Pagoda is five feet taller and twice as thick as the ordinary Ruiming Pagoda. Xu Zhiqiong saw it once in the Yin Yang Division. It is called the Wuyin Ruiming Pagoda. It can also test out the Taoism that is concurrently cultivated.

Liang Yushen looked polite on the surface, but his actions were unambiguous. Why did he use this Ruiming Pagoda?

Liang Yuyao was the first to test her cultivation. She didn't want to hide the domineering cultivation of the fifth rank, but Xu Zhiqiong was worried that she had other cultivations on her body.

And seeing how she devoured the meal, Xu Zhiqiong was always worried.

If two groups of flames appeared within the upper floor of Ruiming Pagoda, how should this be explained?

If it is found that Liang Yuyao has also cultivated other Taoism, who can tell the origin of this Taoism?
Fortunately, Xu Zhiqiong had a certain understanding of the Ruiming Tower, but seeing Liang Yuyao put his hand on the top of the tower, Xu Zhiqiong immediately mobilized the power of imagery to interfere with the flames of the Ruiming Tower.

He clearly felt that there were two flames rising from the first floor of the Ruiming Pagoda, one of which had a slight fishy smell, and was suppressed by Xu Zhiqiong with the power of imagery.

Xu Zhiqiong shot so fast that no one noticed it, and only Liang Yuyao's domineering cultivation was tested on the Ruiming Pagoda.

Liang Yushen was quite surprised to see the Ruiming Pagoda lit up to the fifth floor.

"Yuyao, this is..."

Liang Yuyao confessed frankly: "My cultivation base has surpassed the seventh rank. According to the rules, I will go to the Canglong Hall to serve as the Canglongwei. I have written a letter and informed the emperor about this."

Liang Yushen nodded and said, "Alright, Canglong Palace is just in time for employing people."

Next came Xu Zhiqiong.

The two had never met each other and exchanged names.

"It turned out to be Yunhou, who has been admiring him for a long time."

"When I first met the First Palace Captain, I was disrespectful and disrespectful."

Xu Zhiqiong has tested his cultivation base, the fifth rank, and the sixth rank.

The judge's cultivation base was suppressed to the fifth rank, and there was no need to cover up the fact that he was also the sixth rank. Many people knew that Xu Zhiqiong had a yin and yang cultivation base.

But there was still a group of flames suppressed by Xu Zhiqiong. The matter of the famous master's cultivation should not be known to others.

Xu Zhiqiong tested his cultivation, and Liang Yushen recorded it.

Yu Shan was a little skeptical, Xu Zhiqiong's combat strength was obviously higher than his, and he shouldn't be only at the fifth rank. According to Yu Shan's estimation, Xu Zhiqiong had at least reached the fourth rank.

But it is not appropriate to say too much here, Yu Shan did not show any abnormalities.

Yu Chilan saw it, and felt much more at ease.

Fortunately, Zhiqiong didn't surpass me by much in terms of cultivation.

Tao Huayuan frowned slightly, is the thief boy still at the fifth rank?
He was promoted once in Yu Xianguo, but according to Meng Yuanfeng, that promotion failed. Could it be that the thief boy's cultivation has never improved?
"In the future, I should protect him more..."

Tao Huayuan murmured, and her belt slapped Tao Huayuan's fat peach hard.

"Mom, why are you hitting me again?"

"Usually you're so smart, but when you meet this heartless man, how can you lose your mind? Can you beat him? You thought he was only at the fifth rank!"

Tao Huayuan knew that Xu Zhiqiong must have more than five ranks of cultivation, but these things were not important.

"It's always right to protect him more at ordinary times."

"I told you it was right! You just beat less!" Yidai kept whipping Fat Peach.

Tao Huayuan gritted her teeth and said, "If you insist on fighting, wait until there is no one around..."

Everyone tested their cultivation one after another. When Qianniang was testing, Xu Zhiqiong suppressed the flames with the power of imagery, and the first floor of Ruiming Pagoda was not lit.

Everyone has tested it, except for Liang Yuyao, there are three other people with special cultivation status.

One is Yu Shan, the Ruiming Pagoda lights up the fifth floor first, and the sixth floor has a dim light.

The second is Tao Huayuan, the sixth floor of the Ruiming Pagoda is illuminated, and the seventh floor is dimly lit.

This is a sign of promotion.

In the battle to kill Ye Ansheng, everyone gained a lot.

Liang Yushen clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Congratulations to General Yu and Doctor Tao. You must rest well these two days, especially Doctor Tao. Han Dabu is not here, and the Department of Yin and Yang is busy with everything. Don't overwork yourself."

Tao Huayuan's current official position is a doctor in the Department of Yin and Yang.

With Han Chen not here, Tao Huayuan is indeed in charge of the Department of Yin and Yang.

Liang Yushen had just arrived for three days, but he didn't expect to have a clear grasp of things in the capital.

"This person is not a kind person." Tao Huayuan said to herself silently.

Yi Dai snorted and said, "In your eyes, besides the heartless person, who else is kind in this world?"

The third abnormal person is Tong Qingqiu.

This was Xu Zhiqiong's negligence.

Tong Qingqiu had a sign of being promoted to the fourth rank. In addition, there were two flames on the first two floors of the Ruiming Pagoda.

This proves that he has also practiced other Taoism.

Xu Zhiqiong really didn't expect this situation to happen, and he didn't suppress the flames for Tong Qingqiu in advance.

Tong Qingqiu was also very puzzled. He cracked a lot of prescriptions in Qiancheng Kingdom and learned a lot of new techniques. It is reasonable for him to be promoted, but he has not trained in other sects.

What's the situation?
This is a very serious situation.

If Tong Qingqiu couldn't explain clearly, Liang Yushen could assume that he also practiced evil ways.

Pang Jiafen quickly came forward to testify: "We, Yaoshi Tong, have never practiced evil ways. When we went to Qiancheng Country, I was by his side day and night, and I knew he had never practiced."

Liang Yushen looked at Pang Jiafen with something strange in his eyes.

This is the reaction of a normal person. Pang Jiafen is an unmarried woman. It is inappropriate to testify to a man, but she still says that she is by her side day and night. This is self-destructive innocence.

Regardless of these, Pang Jiafen straightened her waist, just to testify to Tong Qingqiu.

Xu Zhiqiong said from the side: "Captain Shoudian, I will also testify to Tong Yaoshi that he has never practiced evil ways. As for which Taoism he has also cultivated, I will check carefully and I will have an explanation within a few days."

Liang Yushen said calmly: "This is not within the responsibility of Marquis Yun. It may be inappropriate for Marquis Yun to intervene in this matter."

Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile: "I'm Lantern Lantern, and I belong to the Imperial City Division. It's really my job to check this matter.

Tong Jin is not from the clan, so I think the Shou Dian Wei only needs to report the truth, and doesn't need to intervene too much. "

Liang Yushen smiled slightly when he heard this.

Looking at each other for a long time, Xu Zhiqiong felt that Liang Yushen was a little familiar, but he didn't know where the familiarity was.
