Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 931

Xu Zhiqiong took Jiang Mengyun back to the Marquis's Mansion, ready for the battle.

Just now, Xu Zhiqiong felt that a powerful existence was approaching Anshuyuan, and the coercion carried the unique dark wind of the underworld.

According to Xu Zhiqiong's deduction, this should be a certain star from Hades is about to come to the mortal world.

In Anshuyuan, Xu Zhiqiong had to protect Jiang Mengyun and Chai Qiuci, and it was too difficult to face a star alone.

But in the Marquis Mansion, Xu Zhiqiong is certain.

There are girls in the Marquis's Mansion, and there are enough organs, magic weapons and charms.

Mei Ling has not yet recovered, and her strength cannot reach the first rank.

But Niu Jinniu is a cultivator of the underworld after all, and he will be weakened in the yang world. Even if Meiling doesn't directly attack, but only provides cover, Xu Zhiqiong still has the courage to fight Niu Jinniu.

After waiting for a long time, Niu Taurus did not come.

Xu Zhiqiong took out six copper coins to make a divination, three yin and three yang, good or bad luck is unpredictable.

An old servant walked up to Xu Zhiqiong, leaned over and saluted, "Your Majesty, we have a visitor."

At this hour, is there a visitor?
"The guest didn't declare their identity?"

The old servant said blankly: "The guest didn't want to tell the old servant, he said he wouldn't talk to the paper figurine."

In Xu Zhiqiong's marquis mansion, there are no other servants except Han Di.

The so-called servants who shuttled through the courtyard were all paper figurines made by Yang Wu. After being promoted to the third rank, Yang Wu learned a new technique, which could allow the paper figurines to store some yin energy in their bodies, and rely on these yin energy to control the paper figurines. People, doing some simple tasks, can even do simple coping.

But the ability of paper figurines to deal with them is very limited. Greeting and sending, serving tea and handing water can basically do these things. If someone recognizes their identity and calls them paper figurines directly, these servants will have no way to deal with them.

Meiling looked at Xu Zhiqiong, her eyes moved slightly.

This guest is not ordinary, and the visitor is not kind.

Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment, then ordered the old servant: "Hand up the lamp, welcome the guests!"

Xu Zhiqiong came to the gate of the house in person, and saw that the person who came was Liang Yushen, the captain of the Canglong Palace.

"Visiting in the middle of the night disturbed Yunhou's dream, please don't blame Yunhou." Liang Yushen saluted first.

Xu Zhiqiong clasped his fists in return and said, "Just now I was seeing Captain Shoudian in my dream, and Xu has been thinking about it all the time."

Liang Yushen asked in amazement, "Marquis Yun dreamed of me? I don't know what scene is in the dream?"

Xu Zhiqiong recalled for a moment and said: "The first captain appeared in the center of the lotus, fighting fiercely with the enemy."

"Lotus?" Shoudian Wei was taken aback, "I have participated in many wars, but where did this lotus come from?"

Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile: "I like lotus very much, and I once built a lotus pavilion, and I will invite the first captain to sit there some other day."

Liang Yushen entered Xu Zhiqiong's mansion, and the host and guest took their seats in the main hall.

"I came here tonight to ask about Elder Shengwei. Since Elder Shengwei went to the northern border last year, there has been no news for half a year. Can you know the reason?"

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said, "I'm also worried about this matter. I wanted to go to the Canglong Palace to inquire about it."

Liang Yushen sighed and said, "You don't know the whereabouts of Elder Shengwei either, but it makes me more worried about the elder's safety. I have some old stories in the Western Regions. They just heard some rumors that Elder Shengwei may be in the White Falcon in Fanxiao Kingdom." An accident happened."

Part of the White Falcon?
Xu Zhiqiong had heard of the name of the White Falcon Division, and Ling Zheng was a member of the White Falcon Division in Fanxiao Kingdom.

Why did the second brother go to Bai Falcon?
"Is the news reliable?"

Liang Yushen shook his head and said: "There is no evidence yet, I am waiting to discuss with Yun Hou, should I inform the emperor of this matter?"

"The matter of the clan should be decided by the Canglong Palace, and this matter should also be decided by the first palace captain." Xu Zhiqiong did not give any suggestions.

Liang Yushen looked solemn: "I am a bit rigid in my actions, and I have been disgusted by the emperor recently. Before I find out the evidence, I shouldn't add any more worries to the emperor."

Xu Zhiqiong didn't respond, and let him speak for himself.

After chatting for a while, Liang Yushen got up to say goodbye, and Xu Zhiqiong sent him to the door.

Back at the Marquis' Mansion, Xu Zhiqiong speculated on Liang Yushen's intentions, and at the same time judged the authenticity of the news.

Fanxiao Kingdom, White Falcon Division.

Li Shabai is also investigating this matter, let's wait for his news.

In the blink of an eye, Xu Zhiqiong came to the back garden and asked his younger sister, "Senior, can you see the identity of the visitor just now?"

Mei Ling shook her head and said: "He is not in the mortal world, and he can't tell what level he has reached. You might as well ask that senior surnamed Jiang, she has met more people than me."

Jiang Mengyun came out from the wing room, and said with a smile on his face: "Miss Ling thinks highly of me too much, even you can't see the beauty, how can I have such eyesight?"

Mei Ling shook her head and said: "In terms of eyesight, Ling is still inferior to Miss Jiang, who in this world has never walked in front of Miss Jiang?"

"There are too many people leaving, and there are always people who can't remember." Jiang Mengyun looked in the direction of the Canglong Palace, "With his cultivation level, he came to the mortal world to make trouble, but he thinks that the hand of the God of Judgment is not cruel enough?"

Mei Ling put away her smile and said: "Although Shicai is annoying, he hasn't caused trouble so far, and he hasn't violated the rules. The God of Judgment is kind-hearted, and he is reasonable after all."

Jiang Mengyun sighed: "Just saying that the God of Judgment is ruthless will annoy Miss Ling, that's all, let's not mention him."

Xu Zhiqiong asked Jiang Mengyun: "How is the Queen Mother?"

Jiang Mengyun said: "The breath is calmer, but she is still anxious to find his son. Right now she can't move around easily, let alone go to Liangjie Prefecture. She still needs to stay in Yangjian for a few days."

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "After she recovers, let her mother and son meet."

Jiang Mengyun thought for a moment and said: "It's easy to talk once we meet, and it's okay to see more times, but she can't stay in the world for a long time."

Xu Zhiqiong agreed.

Jiang Mengyun said again: "I have to go back to punish the evil boss, otherwise the old cow will come here again, maybe he is not the only one."

Xu Zhiqiong entrusted Chai Qiuci to Meiling, and went to the Qiancheng Punishment Division with Jiang Mengyun.

When he arrived at the Department of Punishment, Xu Zhiqiong ran straight to Xia Hu's room. Xia Hu had just woken up and was washing up. Xu Zhiqiong hugged her behind him.

Xia Hu broke free from Xu Zhiqiong's arms, covered Tao Zi first, jumped three feet away in one step, and shouted at Xu Zhiqiong: "What are you going to do?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "I have something serious to tell you."

"Serious business, and say it to your face, don't come behind me!"

Xu Zhiqiong took out a map, which recorded [-] needle positions.

"I'm going to sew all the [-] stitches, and the stitches can't cross."

Xia Hu was surprised: "Why do you learn this?"

"Don't worry about what it is, let's talk about the hand stitch first." Xu Zhiqiong went to the cabinet to look for needles and threads.

Xia Hu said: "The needle and thread are in that box, you take it yourself."

Xu Zhiqiong was dissatisfied: "But you can't give it to me?"

Xia Hu shook her head again and again.

Bending down to open the box in front of Xu Zhiqiong was too dangerous.

Xu Zhiqiong took out his needle and thread and began to learn how to do it seriously. Except for eating one meal a day, he concentrated all his energy on the needle and thread.

After studying for three days in a row, Xu Zhiqiong became more and more interested. He not only learned how to stitch, but also fell in love with embroidery.

He Qingye had something important to report to Xia Hu, and happened to meet Xu Zhiqiong who was embroidering. Seeing Xu Zhiqiong's concentration on each stitch, Qingye stuck out his tongue, finished talking, and hurried away.

Xia Hu glanced at Xu Zhiqiong, and said angrily, "What's wrong with you learning, you have to learn from women, how can you still have a manly demeanor."

Xu Zhiqiong raised his head and said: "In the past two days, the man's demeanor is very good, and he is almost unstoppable. Would you like to see it, lady?"

"Then there's no need. It's great for a man to learn embroidery." Xia Hu held Tao Zi, moved to the door, and said to Xu Zhiqiong, "There is a group of bandits in Qinzhou who have done countless evils. I will take someone to arrest them." They packed it up."

Xu Zhiqiong put down the embroidery and said, "Have you learned the sixth-grade technique?"

"Of course I will!" Xia Hu kept saying that he had learned a sixth-grade skill, and for a while, even Xu Zhiqiong believed that Xia Hu had learned a sixth-grade skill.

But now it is not so easy to deceive Daoist Xingjun.

Xia Hu's self-proclaimed sixth-rank skill is her innate skill refined and improved, not a sixth-rank skill created by herself at all.

Xu Zhiqiong frowned suddenly and said: "You lied to the officials, you have to eat the family law, the two-petal peaches have to be smashed by the officials, and the door in the peaches can't be kept. The officials have to go in and out hundreds of times a day, how can you do that?" Dare to lie to me?"

Hearing this, Xia Hu lowered her head and said, "I haven't learned the sixth-grade skill yet, so I dare not learn it."

"Why don't you dare?"

"Brother Qian said that you have to pass the level [-] skill, and you only have one chance. If you fail, you will not be promoted in this life."

Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "Leave these bandits to Jiang Shengqun, you stay at home, and I'll help you learn sixth-grade skills."

Xia Hu said: "But those mountain bandits have done a lot..."

"What's the use of your merits now?" Xu Zhiqiong had already seen that Xia Hu had accumulated enough merits to rise to the sixth rank and fifth rank, but if she couldn't learn the sixth rank skills, she would never be able to advance to the fifth rank.

After listening to Xu Zhiqiong's words, Xia Hu honestly learned the sixth-grade skills at home.

Xu Zhiqiong was ready to spend, and was about to help Xia Hu adjust his mind when Xia Hu suddenly grabbed his hand.

"You have to stay with me."

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "Accompany me, just like when I was soaking in a cauldron, you stayed with me every step of the way."

Xia Hu was still worried, clenched Xu Zhiqiong's hand and said, "If you really feel bored, it's okay not to accompany me, but at least leave me a letter and let me know where you went."

Xu Zhiqiong touched Xia Hu's face: "I'm not going anywhere."

Xia Hu warned again: "You are not allowed to steal peaches."

Xu Zhiqiong agreed: "We'll talk about Taozi after you've been promoted to the fifth rank."

With the appearance of a bottomless abyss, it means to go through the Governor Channel, the Ren Channel, the Chong Channel, enter the Dai Channel, enter the Yang Wei Channel, return to the Du Channel, and then enter the Yin Wei Channel...

Following Xu Zhiqiong's guidance, Xia Hu fell into the abyss of consciousness.

Xia Hu opened her eyes and found herself squatting in a dark and narrow room with mice crawling on the floor and flies all over the walls.

Beside her lay a thin woman, coughing in the quilt.

In front of her is a basket filled with oranges.

Behind her was a stove with hot soup on it. There was no meat or vegetables in the soup, only a few grains of rice floating around.

Next to the stove, there was a pair of fierce eyes, which scared Xia Hu so much that he didn't dare to turn his head.

……

As soon as Xia Hu fell into a deep sleep, Xu Zhiqiong realized that something was wrong.

The meridians all over her body were tense, her energy was wandering randomly, and she might wake up at any time.

Waking up so quickly is equivalent to not passing the first level.

If you don't pass the first level, your cultivation will stay at the sixth rank forever.

Xu Zhiqiong released the power of imagery and slowly penetrated into Xia Hu's meridians, trying to help her calm down.

Xu Zhiqiong's body trembled between the touches of his thoughts, and he felt a little fear.

What's happening?
why am i afraid
Is there a strong enemy approaching?
Xu Zhiqiong sensed the situation around him, and there was no strong enemy.

Where did that fear come from?

From Xia Hu's thoughts.

I sensed Xia Hu's fear?

There is still such a situation?

Xu Zhiqiong continued to inject the power of imagery, only to feel the fear in his mind getting stronger.

What exactly did Xia Hu see?
Why are you afraid of being like this?

Xu Zhiqiong poured the power of imagery into his eyes, wanting to see Xia Hu's emotional changes with the eyes of enlightenment.

Xia Hu was covered in purple-gray, cold and gloomy, Xu Zhiqiong got goosebumps when he saw it.

In the slowly surging purple black, thoughts of fear struck again along the power of imagery. Xu Zhiqiong saw some scattered images and heard intermittent voices.

"Money-losing goods! Prodigal species! Sangmen star! You can't even sell an orange, and you dare to steal oranges!"

A man was kicking and beating a seven or eight year old girl.

The girl screamed miserably, a sick woman crawled up to the girl and hugged her tightly: "Don't hit my daughter, don't hit..."

"You bastard, you are more miserable than her, but my life is ruined by your hands!"

The man picked up a stick and beat their mother and daughter frantically.

Lady, is this your father?

Don't be afraid, lady, the officials are here to save you!
