Kunlun one millet

Chapter 50

After Zhao Mi left the Tiegong Temple, Liang Shuo walked out of the Jiutian Yuntai, looked at Hengbi condescendingly looking down at him, and couldn't help frowning and asked:

"What happened? Why didn't you respond to the previous summons?"

"Presumptuous!" Hengbi's brows moved, and he immediately rebuked: "I am a general enlightened by the Zhenjun's talisman, not your private servant Liang Shuo alone! You don't even have the slightest respect, how can you be decent?"

Liang Shuo was about to change his face, but he noticed that Hengbi's aura was different from the past, and he was not driven by himself at this moment, so he could only bow and bow: "This junior is rude. But I don't know why Hengbi will stay away?"

Hengbi glared at Liang Shuo and said, "Before, I temporarily used the enchantment of the shrine to protect my true form. Unexpectedly, the enchantment suddenly exploded, and the aura was turbulent. I felt like I was stuck in a quagmire, and it was difficult to get out for a while. Fortunately, I was rescued by Tiegong. Only now did I learn that there is a monster practicing the law, intending to infect the real king's law and officials."

"Tie Gong?" Liang Shuo was puzzled, "Is it the Panlong Mountain God granted by the previous dynasty?"

"That's right." Heng Bi said: "Tie Gong has passed down the survey of the mountains and rivers to comply with the contract. From now on, I will guard one side on my behalf."

Liang Shuo's complexion changed: "What? This, how could it be so? Immortal General Hengbi has not obtained the talisman, how can he abandon the fairy book of the law and talisman?"

Hengbi snapped his long sword, and the cirrus clouds under his feet made a thunderous sound, and the whole Jiutian Yuntai also trembled slightly: "It's not because I abandoned my immortality, but because of the evil spirit, who bound my true spirit to the throne of the temple. On top of that, the talisman has already been removed from the name. If it weren't for Tiegong Daren, who rescued him in time, I'm afraid that the true spirit will be lost, and he will disappear between the heavens and the earth!"

Liang Shuo clenched his hands and fingers tightly, his inner uneasiness and sullenness intertwined.Apart from losing his most important support right now, this Hengbi has to speak out in public, without any concealment.

At this time inside and outside the Jiutian Yuntai, there were not only Liang Shuo alone, but also the rest of the Liang family's children, even Jiang Ru was among them, everyone had different expressions on their faces, and they didn't know what thoughts were going on in their hearts.

"Immortal Hengbi might as well move in and talk about it in detail." Liang Shuo really couldn't tolerate this situation, no matter what, the most important thing now is to hold Hengbi firmly and never let him go.

Unexpectedly, this Immortal Hengbi waved his hand: "No need, now my seat has been removed from my seat, and it is difficult to climb to the Qingya fairyland. I am ashamed of the teachings of the true king. I only hope that in the future, I can protect one side of the mountains, rivers, waters, soil, and all spirits and sentient beings. Mr. Liang If you are interested, you may wish to contact the chief seat and ask him to write to the imperial court to order the establishment of a shrine, so that this seat can justifiably obey the incense and trustworthiness."

Liang Shuo hurriedly said: "Immortal Hengbi, please wait a moment! As long as your grandfather speaks to Zhenjun, he will be able to re-record your true form, and if you receive a talisman in the future, you can return to the cave, and you don't have to be in this world." land only."

Heng Bi stared at Liang Shuo for a long time, and said: "Forget it, I will wait for the good news of Young Master Liang."

Seeing that Hengbi was about to disappear, Liang Shuo asked again, "Where is the fairy going?"

"This seat still needs to consolidate its true form, so it is not suitable to travel abroad." Heng Bi's figure gradually faded away, leaving a lingering sound: "From now on, this seat may not be able to protect your son at all times, and take good care of yourself."

……

Because of the barrier, Zhao Mi didn't hear the conversation between Hengbi and Liang Shuo in Tiegong Temple, but he still couldn't help smiling when he thought of the possible situation.

"What are Zhao Fu officials laughing at?" In front of the gate of the county government office, Wang Juncheng folded his sleeves and asked, "I saw you coming from the Tiegong Temple, where the brilliance was shining, and you can vaguely see a god standing in the clouds. What happened? gone?"

"Just now I was discussing with Mr. Liang about the harassment of demons, halfway the fairy general appeared, I am an outsider, I should avoid it." Zhao Mi said solemnly: "Mr. "

"Oh, that's good." Wang Juncheng said: "Zhao Fuli's complexion is good, will it be better so soon?"

Zhao Mi replied: "Cultivators still know how to regulate the body. I was too impulsive before, and I couldn't control my anger for a while, and I made a fool of myself in front of everyone."

"Zhao Fu's official is too modest." Wang Juncheng said with a smile.

"I've been recuperating in the courtyard for the past few days, and I don't know how the battle is going ahead." Zhao Mi followed Wang Juncheng into the county mansion, and the other party asked the clerk to submit a report to the mansion.

In fact, Zhao Mi was still a little uneasy in his heart. In order to test Master Fang, Zhao Mi directly fabricated the military situation, and there was no time to discuss it with General Wei.Mr. Fang's transmission of false military information to Chi Yundu may cause unexpected changes in the situation.

Fortunately, General Wei remained on the defensive in Yuyang County, and did not intend to advance rashly until the fortifications were completed.General Wei has also successfully resisted several attacks by bandits recently. Luo Xixian even beheaded an enemy monk to add new merits.

However, the Di Bao also mentioned that the military formation of bandits is different from the past recently. Although it is far from being a strong army, it is also advancing and retreating in an orderly manner, obviously after training.

General Wei also mentioned in the residence newspaper that he had seen the enemy's rear flag order, which was used by Chiyundu in the past.Therefore, it is believed that Chiyundu's rebellious party has completely integrated the remaining thieves in Xingluo County, and they are not the stragglers of the past.

Seeing this, Zhao Mi's face darkened slightly.In the torture room of the prison, he had reprimanded Chi Yundu for allowing the bandits to plunder and commit crimes. Unexpectedly, Mr. Yang Liu and the others did not let them go.

"What? Zhao Fuli seems to be worried about the frontline war?" Wang Juncheng took a sip of tea: "Don't worry, now that the [-] troops have arrived, the banditry has greatly reduced the limelight. General Wei used his troops like a god to drive them to the northwest." County, the outline of the city can be conquered in a short time, and Xingluo County can be restored to peace."

Zhao Mi put down the mansion newspaper and asked, "Master Wang, what do you think is the root cause of the banditry in Xingluo County?"

Wang Juncheng's expression was solemn, and he waved his hand to let the servants of the scribes back down, and sat next to Zhao Mi: "I know that the former county magistrate levied and collected violently, which greatly disappointed the people. Many people also had to follow the thieves in order to survive. But things always have to be done step by step. Let’s do it, it’s impossible to appease and appease the banditry when it’s at its height. If possible, I would like to kill only the leader of the bandits and let the rest of the people return to their hometowns.”

Zhao Mi had no choice but to say, "But this time the thieves are a bunch of chaotic monsters with magical powers. It's not easy to kill."

"What's Zhao Fuli's next plan?" Wang Juncheng turned to ask: "If you want to add more credit, you can also go to the front line."

"Not in a hurry." Zhao Mi said, "I heard that Master Fang fell ill. It seems to be related to the spices I prepared. I'll go and visit first."

……

When Zhao Mi came to Fang's house again, he was not stopped by the servant Jianfu, and learned that Master Fang's condition was getting better and he was resting in the back garden.

Passing through the doorway in the backyard, Zhao Mi saw the old servant guarding the gate sweeping the ground with a broom, without looking up at Zhao Mi.

Master Fang was sitting on a reclining chair, and a maidservant brought tea beside him. He saw Zhao Mi was about to get up, and the other party raised his hand to signal: "Master Fang, you don't need to get up. I'm here today to ask for forgiveness."

"Where is the word!" Master Fang asked the maid to back down: "Zhao Fuli, please sit down... I heard that the servants of the family offended Zhao Fuli earlier, and their words were very inappropriate. I have already taught them a lesson."

Zhao Mi laughed and said, "Master Fang, you don't need to be harsh, they are loyal to the Lord. It's my fault, I didn't say it earlier, this Qingyunlong incense has a dry nature, so it's not advisable to use too much at one time."

"It has nothing to do with spices. The old man is getting old. He suffered from the wind and cold a few days ago and couldn't get out of bed for several days." Master Fang said, "Oh, my legs and feet have become more and more weak these years, and I can't run around."

Zhao Mi said: "There are many Daoyin massage techniques suitable for ordinary people in the Huaiying Museum. Why don't you let me try it for a while, it may help the muscles and bones."

"No need." Master Fang waved his hand: "Zhao Fuli is busy with affairs, how dare I let Zhao Fuli work? It's just a small problem, and the weather will be warmer."

"Master Fang is the captain of the Tianlu Army. He has made great contributions to our Huaxu country. I just pay a little respect." Zhao Mi was not reluctant, and stepped forward to grab Master Fang's wrist.

Master Fang's face was startled, his originally slack body tensed up, and he instinctively avoided Zhao Mi.

At this time, the sound of breaking wind was heard from behind, and a straight, thin-edged knife lay across Zhao Shu's neck.It turned out that it was the old servant sweeping the floor, who pulled out the weapon from the wooden handle of the broom, and approached Zhao Mi with a very fast movement.

But Zhao Shu seemed to have expected it long ago, without making any formulas with his hands or chanting mantras, a tiger-patterned talisman flew out between his eyebrows.Seeing this, the old servant did not back down, and in a flash, the blade lightly touched Zhao Shu's neck, but it seemed to be sliding on an iron plate, barely scratching the oily skin.

As soon as the golden wind rolled, the sweeping old servant was knocked down to the ground by the real form of the tiger that appeared instantly.Shenhu opened his mouth full of blood, and bit the old servant's head, but did not directly tear it off.

"stop!"

Master Fang jumped up from the reclining chair, raised his hand into a claw, intending to grab Zhao Shu's arm.The movements are done in one go, and there is no sign of being old, sick or weak.

Zhao Mi flipped his left hand over and gave a low shout:
"Certainly!"

With one breath, Master Fang couldn't move his limbs.Zhao Mi raised his sleeves and shook out the Qingxuan brush, and swipe towards the ground a few times, the dark loess surged up, entangled Master Fang's legs, making him unable to move.

This battle ended almost in a face-to-face meeting. Although Master Fang had escaped from the air restraint, his feet were trapped in a muddy earth entanglement.Martial arts fighters pay attention to strength from the ground, and now that their feet are entangled, most of their martial arts are almost abolished.

"Now, you can talk properly."

Zhao Mi turned the Qingxuan pen, without a smile on his face: "After all, you still can't help but want to do it."

"When did you find out?" Master Fang was frightened and angry at first, but he calmed down in a blink of an eye.

"Guess." Zhao Mi said: "I didn't notice any abnormalities in the enchantment of Tiegong Temple at first, but I thought it had been silent for a long time and it was difficult to activate. I still got advice from an expert, so I suspected you. So when I visited last time , deliberately fabricated the military situation, and then waited for you to launch the Gangfengyi flag to spread the news, so that it can be confirmed that you are Chi Yundu's internal response in the city... Luo Xixian was ambushed when he went to Sanniukeng, so you were the one who tipped off the news?"

Master Fang gave up struggling, glanced at the old servant who was crushed to the ground by Shenhu, and could only answer: "Yes."

"You bought a large number of Qingyunlong cigarettes and incense, and handed them over to Chi Yundu?" Zhao Mi asked again.

"That's right!" Master Fang didn't show any signs of discouragement, on the contrary, he was even more determined and unyielding: "How? All the fruits of my hard work have fallen into the hands of the enemy. Is it enough to annoy you?"

Zhao Mi was speechless, and after a long silence, he asked, "Why?"

Mr. Fang was puzzled, Zhao Mi said: "I have seen a veteran of the Tianlu Army before. He harbored resentment towards the rich local households. He colluded with evil spirits, killed and wounded people, and caused disasters to the whole family. But at least he still has a good reputation for the old and the weak. The intention of seeking pension silver and Anjiatian, but what about you?
Now that you are far away from the battlefield, it can be said that you have retired after a successful career, and you have a wealth of thousands of dollars that others can only dream of. The local officials should also pay more respect to you.With such peace and wealth, why do they still have to collude with rebels and thieves?Could it be that they want to take the opportunity to make more money for the country?Those few mines are not enough for you? "

"Zhao Fuli." Master Fang smiled: "Your words are too naive. Why do local officials pay more respect to me... If this is the case, I will send my daughter to someone as a concubine ?"

Zhao Mi knew that the former sheriff of Xingluo County died at the banquet where he married Fang's daughter.He glanced at the old servant sweeping the floor, guessing that this person was the assassin who killed the sheriff.If it wasn't for the protection of the ring of deeds, the swift and violent knife just now might have taken his life.

"After leaving the Tianlu Army, I'm just a rich man." Master Fang said with a smile, "Anyone who is greedy and cruel will be able to hold me tightly, and I can't even hope for peace and wealth."

Zhao Mi asked: "In this case, why did you choose to come to Xingluo County to settle down? Instead of raising the flag to rebel against the Tianlu Army?"

"Maybe it's because I'm tired and my heart is soft." Master Fang shook his head and sighed: "I have fought with the old general for decades, and seeing the five kingdoms eliminate soldiers, I feel that the world is peaceful from now on. I realized later that I was still short-sighted. "

"So you chose to seek refuge in Chiyundu?" Zhao Mi asked: "How many benefits have they promised you? Will you be able to be ranked as a general in the future when the dynasty changes? Or is it a hereditary title?"

"It was Chi Yun who took the initiative to find me." Master Fang did not hide it: "I don't have such long-term ideas. Maybe it is just like what you said. I just want to seek peace and wealth, rather than just living in fear."

Zhao Mi was stunned for a moment, Master Fang did not have a clear ambition like Yang Liujun and Sang Huazi.Thinking back to Wang Miaoshou back then, all he wanted in the end was to settle down and property, but he chose to join forces with the evil spirits without any scruples.

"You initiated the enchantment of Tie Gong Temple?" Zhao Mi looked Master Fang up and down, and saw that the other party's whole body aura seemed to be somewhat superficial in refining Qi, but it was far worse than his own. reluctantly.

"Mr. Yangliu left me a spell. I don't have the skills to do that." Master Fang spread his hands, "Even launching the Gangfeng Post Flag, I have to spend a lot of trouble. It's not the chaotic party monster with profound magic power that I expected. Is Zhao Fuli disappointed?"

"If that's the case, why didn't you run away?" Zhao Mi said, "If you know that I'm going to search your house, you will definitely be exposed. And once the barrier of Tiegong Temple is activated, your suspicion will not be cleared away."

"Escape? Where can I escape?" Master Fang asked back: "Zhao Fuli, should I say you are smart or stupid?"

Zhao Mi didn't speak, Master Fang stretched out his arms: "Okay, don't talk nonsense. I am too old to stand those tortures, and don't expect to use me to blackmail Chi Yundu. If Zhao Fuli thinks highly of me, directly Take my life and let me suffer less!"
