Longevity begins with a dog

Chapter 113 Target, Xie Changqing!

Yongtai 19 years, spring.

Four months have passed since the death of the water ghost.

in the study.

Xu Chong took out a small bell and poured energy into it.

There is no 'ring ring ring' sound, there are only invisible fluctuations rippling around.

When the fluctuation stopped, Xu Chong put away the bell, and just sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest his mind.

A moment later, a thin figure dressed in black and holding a fishing rod stepped out of the void and suddenly appeared in the study.

It was Dou Tianyuan.

As soon as Dou Tianyuan came out, he looked around.

After confirming that no one else was there, he staggered suddenly and his face turned pale instantly.

"You are on a horse... just call me here if there is nothing wrong?"

"I am urging you to use the Cloud Piercing Token only when you are in a critical situation!"

"Do you know how far it is from the capital to here?"

"I almost got fucked by someone..."

Dou Tianyuan's voice stopped abruptly.

Because Xu Chong opened his eyes.

"Subordinate, I have seen the Commander-in-Chief."

Xu Chong stood up for a week.

Killing intent!
From Xu Chong's eyes, Dou Tianyuan saw a killing intent that was so strong that it was almost real!
Moreover, this killing intent doesn't seem to be directed at him?

Devil? !
Dou Tianyuan's complexion changed drastically, he threw away the fishing rod, took a step forward, and directly grabbed Xu Chong's wrist, "Washing the body nine times... actually completely ignored the rules of calming the nerves, how long have these demons accumulated?"

"It started with the body wash five times."

Xu Chong smiled.

To be precise, it started after the death of the water ghost.

Since the death of the water ghost, Xu Chong has been disturbed by the demons all the time.

He no longer remembers how many scenes he has seen.

Swearing, demanding life, and seducing, this is the lowest level.

Massacres, rapes, looting, all kinds of hellish scenes have appeared.

And the cruelest... death replay.

Including what happened, whether he witnessed it or not.

Liu Er, Aunt Ma, Lame Zhang, Lao Li, Master...

Also includes things that haven't happened yet.

Zhao Liu, Li Xiangxue, Sun Yourong, Ge Wanshan, Kou Ruohai, Jiang Zhihong, Dou Tianyuan...

As long as the relationship with Xu Chong was even a little bit closer, no matter whether they were dead or alive, they all died hundreds of thousands of times in different ways in front of Xu Chong in the form of demons.

"You can still laugh?!"

Dou Tianyuan's expression turned ugly, "Why don't you wait until you have solved your demons before breaking through?"

If you can't get rid of your demons, you can't sow the Tao.

So no matter who it is, they are always vigilant in the cleansing state, and immediately find a solution when they have demons.

But Xu Chong was lucky, he washed his body for nine times, and the demons followed him?
"The subordinates discovered that when the demons surround the body, the real strength will far exceed the current realm."

Xu Chong replied.

"……so what?"

Dou Tianyuan's face became even more ugly, "I'm afraid that as soon as you walk out of the Qin Tianjian, you will be backlashed by your demons and die on the spot!"

"My lord is worrying too much."

Xu Chong shook his head, "It was really difficult at first, but after getting used to it, the subordinates can easily distinguish whether there is a demon or not, and now it doesn't even affect the communication with others, but the killing intent in the eyes is too obvious, and I can't hide it at all. .”

Hearing this, Dou Tianyuan was not happy but surprised.

Martial arts have been around for so many years, and some people have already tried to use demons.

It also confirmed the saying that the stronger the demon, the stronger the strength.

But the problem is, this situation can't last long at all.

Either die suddenly under the backlash of the demon, or be assimilated by the demon, and become a devil who does all kinds of evil.

Xu Chong's situation is very similar to the latter situation.

"Who is your demon?"

Dou Tianyuan asked.

No matter what the cause of the inner demon is, in the final analysis, it will be implemented on the person.

It could be an individual, or it could be a group.

The way he could think of was to take Xu Chong to solve this, or these people immediately.

"Marquis of Taiping, Xie Changqing."

Xu Chong didn't hide anything, "This subordinate took the liberty to invite your lord here just to ask your lord about this beast."

"Xie Changqing..."

Dou Tianyuan's face softened slightly, and he sighed, "It seems that the water ghost may not be a small favor to you."

As the intelligence chief of Daqing, Dou Tianyuan knew the time of the death of the water ghost, which can be said to be earlier than the court.

Originally, he didn't take it seriously, but now it seems that the importance of this water ghost to Xu Chong is definitely not low.

What happened between the two of them?
"It's already out of this category."

Xu Chong shook his head with a smile, "Now, this subordinate simply wants to kill him."

"This……"

Dou Tianyuan hesitated for a while, "Xie Changqing only has to wash his body three times, it is indeed far from your opponent, but in order to set an example and attract more rebels to join him, the imperial court has always protected Xie Changqing very well..."

"The subordinate killed Xie Changqing not just to vent his anger."

Xu Chong shook his head, "I have expected that once Xie Changqing is killed, my cultivation will definitely succeed...even if it is Zifu cultivation!"

"real?!"

Dou Tianyuan's eyes widened suddenly.

"Your Excellency should know that the Purple Mansion is the residence of the soul and cannot be touched easily, but..."

Xu Chong raised his hand and pointed to the center of his eyebrows, "The heart demon walked in after wandering around Yuchi and Huang Ting."

"what?!"

Dou Tianyuan exclaimed again.

He has lost his composure more than once today.

All because of Xu Chong.

"The inner demon is condensed to the extreme, and it is no longer completely nothingness, but has become something similar to strength."

Xu Chong explained patiently, "The place where it eventually occupies is the Purple Eyebrow Mansion."

"For example, as you can see, the killing intent in my eyes is just a very small part of the inner demon that leaked out."

"Moreover, I can feel that my Zifu is getting stronger every moment."

"Perhaps... this is the heart demon preparing to replace me?"

Xu Chong smiled and said: "In short, I have a premonition that once I can kill Xie Changqing, my inner demons will be turned into nutrients to create the strongest Zifu that has never been seen before."

"... lying on a horse!"

A deep chill rose in Dou Tianyuan's heart.

The cultivation of Taoism in the Purple Mansion has been the biggest problem since ancient times.

First of all, there are very few gods and men in the Zifu who cultivate the way, and most of them will hide the essence of the way, pretending to be the heavenly man who cultivated the way in the Huangting.

Secondly, even if you can find a god-man in the Purple Mansion who is willing to tell you frankly, it is useless... The reasons for each successful cultivation are different, and there are no rules.

If Xu Chong's conjecture is correct, then... this will be a change related to the entire power system!
After all, the Tao cannot be controlled by humans, but the demons can!
If it is made public...

Think about it, in order to cultivate inner demons, how many people will deliberately create disputes, and let themselves suffer from humiliation, hatred, guilt and other emotions.

Even killing father, mother, wife and son is not out of the question.

"I can kill Xie Changqing for you."

Dou Tianyuan let out a breath of turbid air slowly, "But you must remember that this matter must not be disclosed to anyone, once Taipingdao finds out..."

The imperial court still has laws to govern, but the Taiping Dao doesn't have so many scruples.

Once leaked, it would be a catastrophe.

"My lord misunderstood."

Xu Chong shook his head, "Xie Changqing, I can only kill myself, not by anyone else."

"Ok?"

Dou Tianyuan's heart sank, "Is this a necessary condition for turning the demons into nutrients?"

"Exactly."

Xu Chong smiled and nodded.

"But the problem is, that kind of protection, you..."

Dou Tianyuan hesitated to speak.

"I have Wuxiang Clothes in my hand, pretending to be blind, I should have a chance to get close."

Xu Chong had planned for a long time.

"I'm afraid this opportunity is not very easy to find..."

Dou Tianyuan was not optimistic, shook his head, and said: "Forget it, I will tell you his information first, and you can decide for yourself."

"Thank you for your compassion."

Xu Chong clasped his fists in a salute, and then pointed out with one hand: "My lord, please sit down."

"Ah."

Dou Tianyuan nodded and took his seat, and said slowly.

Xie Changqing accepted the recruitment, and it was a trivial matter to help the imperial court wipe out a branch church in a province. The huge prestige brought about by this matter was what the imperial court valued most.

After all, Taiping Road is like a flea, always jumping around in Daqing.

The losses in terms of warriors and materials are not worth mentioning, but in terms of people's hearts, it really caused the court some headaches.

According to the general guard's investigation, even in the capital city, there are many officials secretly communicating with Taipingdao to make huge profits.

This kind of behavior of eating from the bowl and looking at the pot is unacceptable to the royal family.

However, the matter involved a lot, and no substantial evidence could be found, so the royal family could only stare blankly and sulk.

At most, it's nothing more than putting on shoes for the most suspected ones.

Those who should be at both ends of the mouse continue to be at both ends of the mouse, and those who should betray the interests of the imperial court continue to betray the interests of the imperial court.

And now it's different.

Even the Xie family, one of the six major families in Taiping Road, defected to the imperial court.

What concept?
If you cooperate with Taipingdao again, maybe your partner will join the imperial court that day.

Just ask if you are afraid.

As a result, the former rebel Xie Changqing transformed into the Marquis of Taiping Xie Changqing, who also served as the Governor of Selangor Province Chengxuan Zuobu Political Envoy.

The matter is not over here.

Because of the title of "Taiping".

This is almost no different from the face that slapped Taiping Dao face to face, and it is the kind of slap left and right slapped over and over again.

Crackling.

Naturally, Taipingdao wants to get rid of Xie Changqing and then quickly revive the glory of Yizi.

It's a pity that the court had expected this.

The Chengxuan Political Envoy of the entire Selangor State was set up in numerous ambushes, causing Taipingdao to lose batch after batch of manpower, but in the end they didn't even see Xie Changqing's face.

"What kind of ambush?"

Xu Chong asked with a frown.

"A Taoist artifact called Jingxin Liuli, anyone who is hostile, as long as he steps into Chengxuan's political envoy, he will be discovered immediately."

Dou Tianyuan replied, and then added: "Picking the stars is not possible, this Taoist weapon is controlled by Xie Changqing, which provides him with a strong protective ability... unless you find a hidden weapon of the same level as the Taoist weapon."

"Will you be found out if you are hostile?"

Xu Chong's heart sank slightly.

Can something as illusory as hostility be detected?

Worthy of being a Taoist weapon...

It's a pity that the non-phase clothing can only cover up the appearance and aura, and if nothing else happens, it can't cover up such things as hostility, otherwise it wouldn't be called the non-phase clothing, it should be called the invincible clothing.

What's more, his attitude towards Xie Changqing far exceeded the concept of hostility, it was naked killing intent.

"It's not just as simple as a Taoist weapon."

"The force that guards him is the Commander of the Selangor Province. Although it is far less powerful than the blood-clothed guards, it is superior in that there are more people, and the bows, swords, and armors equipped are all at the level of magic soldiers."

"Twelve hours of non-stop patrolling, standing guard, if there is any disturbance, they will all cover up."

"Even if Xie Changqing goes out, the accompanying protection will not be compromised at all."

Dou Tianyuan sighed after finishing speaking, "I don't see that you have any hope of killing him... just forget it, I'll kill him for you, let the demons dissipate, and it's the same if you go to the Jade Pond."

"My lord just said..."

Xu Chong grasped the key points in the words, and asked without answering: "Xie Changqing will go out too?"

"Of course."

Dou Tianyuan looked at Xu Chong speechlessly, "At least he is the Lord Marquis, and he is also a high-ranking official. How can he be willing to stay in the yamen from the beginning to the end? What's more, the court just wants him to move around..."

indeed.

The more ostentatious the betrayer is, the greater the stimulus will be to the betrayed party, and the more prestigious the party that accepts the betrayer will be.

Xu Chong frowned and thought.

"Listen to me, there is really no way, just let me do it."

Dou Tianyuan repeated it again.

"The subordinate wants to try again."

Xu Chong insisted.

In fact, he just lied.

As long as Xie Changqing dies, his inner demons will turn into nourishment and nourish the purple mansion between the eyebrows.

There is no such thing as saying that you have to kill yourself.

The reason why he told this lie was because he knew that even with Dou Tianyuan's status, he would be punished severely for killing the current Xie Changqing.

It's nothing to be impeached by hundreds of officials. After working in the position of commander-in-chief of the Bloody Guards for so many years, Dou Tianyuan should have been used to being impeached long ago.

But what that Emperor Qing would think and what kind of punishment he would impose is not clear.

As for not being discovered...

It is true that Zhishou Potian can come and go without a trace, but it is precisely this that comes and goes without a trace, so it is easy to suspect Dou Tianyuan.

So if it is not in case, it is better not to let Dou Tianyuan take this risk.

So he wanted to try again himself.

"Try... how long can your demons last?"

Dou Tianyuan asked.

"If you stay in Qin Tianjian, it's okay to continue like this."

Xu Chong replied, "If you go out, bring the tea planted by Yuan Jian, about three months."

"Three months?"

Dou Tianyuan pondered for a while, then sharpened his eyes: "Okay, I will give you three months. After three months, if Xie Changqing is not dead, I will take action."

"...What kind of punishment will you receive?"

Xu Chong asked in a deep voice.

"Should not die."

Dou Tianyuan rubbed his chin, "But I'm afraid it's possible to go to prison and imprison yourself for five, six, seven or eight years."

Prison...

Xu Chong's heart tightened, and he was a little more determined to kill Xie Changqing with his own hands.

Prison is no fun place.

The materials for making the shackles of the forbidden law came from the imperial prison.

"Don't frown, I have always been in control of the prison, and I have entered and exited it no less than ten thousand times, and I am familiar with it like home."

Dou Tianyuan said with a relaxed smile, "The big deal is to wait for you to get ahead before you come to scoop me up."

"Uh...is that so?"

Xu Chong touched his nose and felt a little more relaxed.

"Moreover."

Dou Tianyuan blinked at Xu Chong, "What if you can really kill that Xie Changqing?"
