I’m a Big Boss In Uncle Jiu’s World

Chapter 952 Confused Zhang Daoxian

Hearing this, Xue Qing's heart trembled slightly, and she immediately looked at Zhong Kui expectantly.

Today she was defeated. She was completely defeated. Let alone saving the demon world, she was extremely lucky to be able to save herself.

If Zhong Kui is willing to take her away from here, away from the conflicts between humans and demons, even if it means living a poor and cumbersome life, she will be happy to do so.

Facing Xue Qing’s expectant gaze, Zhong Kui fell silent.

 He once trusted Zhang Daoxian so much, but Xue Qing said that Zhang Daoxian was not a good person.

 But if even Zhang Daoxian is not trustworthy, then are the master and disciple in front of him worthy of trust?

By taking Xue Qing away now, he is escaping, being a coward, and abandoning the thousands of people in the capital.

In the future, if the demon world falls and demons escape to the human world, Hudu will be the first to bear the brunt. Will he be a deserter at this time?

"I can't leave, and I can't leave." After a long time, Zhong Kui lowered his eyes and said, "The generals need me."

Xue Qing’s eyes dimmed and she didn’t know what to say for a moment.

 Perhaps for aspiring men, responsibility is greater than love?

"Consider it carefully." Qin Yao didn't say much, he just patted Zhong Kui on the shoulder, then turned to Uncle Jiu and said, "Master, let me help you out."

Zhong Kui watched the master and apprentice leave numbly, but he did not dare to look at Xue Qing again.

Xueqing looked at him for a long time, then her body suddenly turned into a snowstorm and rushed out the door: "The grace of saving my life will be repaid one day."

Zhong Kui subconsciously reached out to grab it, but the wind and snow passed through his fingers and quickly disappeared from his eyes...

On the other side, after walking out of Zhong Kui's room, Qin Yao asked secretly: "System, how many filial piety points are needed to help Uncle Jiu and I hide the truth from Xie Zhi?"

There is no doubt that the Haechi from heaven is definitely not comparable to the human unicorn, and its minimum strength must be in the immortal realm.

Faced with this gap in realms, without external assistance, Qin Yao and Jiu Shu's lies would have no way of hiding.

　　【One person has one hundred filial piety values ​​per day. 】The system immediately gives a quotation.

“It’s too expensive.” Qin Yao frowned.

If you stay in the capital for three or five days, this consumption will break a thousand.

 The price is unacceptable to Qin Yao.

　　【The other party is a fairy beast after all, and the strength gap between you is too big. 】The system is not a businessman, so it will not bargain with the business, but only gives the basis for charging in response to Qin Yao's complaints.

If the demon spirit hadn't been in hand, Qin Yao would never have accepted this offer.

  But because the devil was in hand, he had to accept the price. After all, even if they spend more than a thousand dollars, as long as they can keep the demon spirit, it will be a big profit for their master and disciple.

 The difference is just a matter of earning more and less!

Shao Qing, Uncle Jiu brought Qin Yao to his house, and waved his hands with a barrier: "Zhang Daoxian has gone to invite Xie Zhi, what do you have in mind?"

"Leave it to me to deal with it." Qin Yao warned: "Master, please remember not to answer any questions from Zhang Daoxian when I am not around. Xie Zhi can distinguish between true and false words, but he cannot see through your heart."

Seeing that Qin Yao was still reliable at the critical moment, Uncle Jiu breathed a long sigh of relief: "As long as you have a way to deal with it, otherwise we will have no choice but to escape from the devil world."

“Don’t worry, as long as I’m here, there won’t be any problems.” Qin Yao said firmly.

 The next day.

 The fourth day when the demon leaves the demon world.

Zhang Daoxian landed in Hudu City before the sun had risen. He was accompanied by a unicorn-like monster that was as big as an ox and resembled a unicorn, with thick black hair all over its body.

“Lord Haechi, I will trouble you to hide in the courtroom later, listen quietly to people’s words, and distinguish between true and false.” Zhang Daoxian said warmly as he climbed the steps of the Duhu Mansion.

Tukou vomited, his voice was solemn and majestic: "No problem. Please rest assured that fairy officials can hide my eyes without lies."

 Zhang Daoxian chuckled: "Yes, yes, this is also the main reason why I spent so much effort to invite you here."

During the conversation, a man and an animal passed through the tightly closed door, and were led by Zhang Daoxian to the outside of the palace hall.

Hie Zhi took two quick steps and stepped in through the door. His eyes like bull's eyes swept across the hall, and he slowly came to the judge's table.

The body suddenly changed and turned into a jade seal, which gently landed on the side of the table. It was invisible and invisible. Anyone who saw it would just think it was an ordinary jade seal.

Zhang Daoxian nodded with satisfaction, turned around and went out. He called Uncle Jiu, Qin Yao, and Zhong Kui to the court, and said in a solemn voice: "Daoist Lin, Taoist Qin, I have a question, and I would like you to answer it."

coming…

Qin Yao's eyelids twitched and he said secretly: "System, redeem the ability to hide it from Xie Zhi."

　　【This transaction will deduct 100 filial piety points. If the deduction is successful, your filial piety balance will be 10,950 points. 】

As the light symbol of a successful transaction flashed in front of his eyes, Qin Yao felt relieved even though he didn't feel anything. He calmly asked: "What does the immortal want to ask?"

Zhang Daoxian said slowly: "What I want to ask is, do you two know who the murderer of Qilin was?"

Since he was unsure and did not want to fall out with the master and disciple, his first question was very reserved.

Qin Yao shook his head: "If we know who the murderer is, why don't we tell the immortal?"

After he finished speaking, Zhang Daoxian subconsciously looked at the large seal of Haechi on the judgment table, but saw that the seal showed no reaction at all, and his heart sank slightly.

 Do they really not know who the murderer is?

After a moment of silence, Zhang Daoxian asked again: "Do you know where the demon spirit is?"

Qin Yao raised his brows and asked: "You don't even know where the demon spirit is, how could we know? Immortal Zhang, are you doubting us?"

Zhang Daoxian still didn't wait for Xie Zhi to speak, and winked at Zhong Kui.

Zhong Kui understood this and immediately came out to talk to Xi Ni: "Taoist Master Qin, the Immortal is not doubting you, but the seven-day period is getting closer and closer. In these last three days, the demonic army may attack Hu's capital at any time. , Our chances of winning are very low, so the immortal is getting more and more nervous and anxious, and he has asked me this before. "

Qin Yao knew that these words must have been made up by Zhong Kui, but the truth or falsehood had no meaning at this time. It was wise to go down this step.

 After all, he cannot leave Hudu with his master and leave the center of the plot.

 Losing control of the situation and micro-managing the plot will definitely lead to backlash in the future.

"Immortal, you are the only hope for Hudu now." Taking a breath silently, Qin Yao said in a deep voice: "Anyone can mess up Hudu, but you can't mess up. Otherwise, the people of Hudu can still rely on you." who?"

Zhang Daoxian's face was gloomy and uncertain. His eyes glanced from his cheek to Uncle Jiu's cheek. He wanted to ask a few more questions, but in the end he forcibly held back.

 He ​​knew very well that the inquiry just now had caused a rift between the two of them. Zhong Kui's circle did not repair the rift, but only maintained the relationship between the two parties in a state of being broken but not broken.

If he questions the Taoist surnamed Lin again, the Taoist surnamed Qin will probably fall out on the spot!

At that time, he asked the Jade Emperor for an order to govern the capital, but he made a guarantee in front of a palace full of immortal officials. If when he was guarding the capital, all the troops were gone, and the demons invaded the human territory, he didn't know what would happen to him.

 Therefore, he really needs these two masters and disciples to work for him, at least to guard the capital.

Soon after, Qin Yao and Jiu Shu walked out of the court together. Zhang Daoxian sat slumped on a chair and murmured: "Now there is no one to suspect. I don't understand. It's hard to understand. Who is the mastermind behind the scenes?" ? When did he plot against the demon spirit? " The more he thought about it, the more terrifying he became. He was a powerful immortal, and it seemed as if his neck was being strangled, and he was covering his mouth, making it difficult to breathe.

"Immortal, can you please send soldiers and horses from heaven to come down to earth to guard the capital?" Zhong Kui asked softly.

Zhang Daoxian shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "It was our merit to steal the demon spirit, but it was our fault to lose the demon spirit in our hands and attract the demons to covet the human world. Now the merit is gone, but the fault is still there.

There is still no movement in the heaven. It cannot be that they are not aware of the changes in the devil world. I think they are giving me a chance. If I can't resolve this matter properly, Zhong Kui, you may not be able to see me in the future. "

Zhong Kui:"…"

Looking at his speechless expression, Zhang Daoxian asked in a strange way: "Zhong Kui, you have nothing to hide from me, right?"

Zhong Kui's heart stopped for a moment and he quickly said: "No, no, how dare a villain hide this from an immortal?"

 “Lie!” Haechi suddenly appeared and shouted sternly.

Zhong Kui’s mouth twitched.

 He never thought beforehand that the Haechi invited by Zhang Daoxian would actually be used on himself.

 Zhang Daoxian's expression changed and he shouted softly: "Zhong Kui, what did you hide from me?"

Zhong Kui shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Immortal, don't ask, don't ask. I can assure you that this matter has nothing to do with demon spirits."

Zhang Daoxian said coldly: "It doesn't matter if it has nothing to do with demon spirits. You shouldn't hide anything about me from me."

Zhong Kui was helpless: "This is my privacy, please give me some dignity."

"Snapped!"

Zhang Daoxian slapped him in the face with his backhand, sending him flying. His shoulder knocked over a candlestick holding more than ten candles.

“What kind of dignity do you have? Do you deserve to be called decent? Tell me honestly, what did you hide from me?”

Seeing the immortal who he had remembered as a kind father and mentor suddenly become so violent, the filter in Zhong Kui's heart finally broke, and he gritted his teeth without saying a word.

 Whether it was the entanglement with Xue Qing or the betrayal of Zhang Daoxian, he could not talk about it.

　　　If I say the former, I'm afraid it will harm Xue Qing's life; if I tell you the latter, I'm afraid it will harm my own life.

 Xue Qing is right, Zhang Daoxian is indeed not a good person. He asked himself to steal demon spirits, and nine times out of ten, it was not for the sake of the people of Hudu!

Zhang Daoxian turned his right hand, and Zhong Kui was immediately imprisoned in the air by a stream of immortal energy: "Zhong Kui, I saved your life, taught you spells, and stimulated your potential. Is this how you repay me?"

Zhong Kui seemed to be strangled by the throat, his cheeks gradually turned red, and he said with difficulty: "I swear on my soul, that matter has nothing to do with demons!"

 Zhang Daoxian was silent for a long time, then waved his palm, and the immortal energy that had imprisoned Zhong Kui immediately dissipated.

"boom."

Zhong Kui's body fell to the ground from mid-air, and he couldn't help but moan in pain.

 “Get out!” Zhang Daoxian yelled.

Zhong Kui struggled to get up from the ground and limped out of the courtroom.

 “Do you still have any doubts about the candidate?” After the three people left the scene, Haechi asked indifferently.

Zhang Daoxian suddenly remembered the team of witches who entered the city recently, and said solemnly: "There is only the last breakthrough left..."

However, when he brought the Xie Zhi to the camp of the Loulan convoy, he saw that the tent was already empty, and even the camels and horses were gone.

 “I feel closer and closer to the truth.”

Looking at the empty camp, Zhang Daoxian became excited: "The entire army has been sealed by me. Except for me, you can only enter but not exit, so those witches must be hiding. As long as we can find them, Maybe we can learn the truth from them.”

"Xianguan, I came to resolve the case with you, not to investigate the case." Haechi said in a deep voice.

Zhang Daoxian's smile froze, and then he said: "One day, give me one day, and I will definitely find them."

Xie Zhi shook his head: "At most, it will be midnight tonight. As soon as midnight passes, I will leave immediately."

 Zhang Daoxian: “…”

At this moment, he once again deeply hated why he was only a humble official.

If he was an important member of the Heavenly Court, how could this Xie Zhi dare to speak to him like this?

The day passed quickly. Zhang Daoxian first searched the most dangerous and safest Protectorate, and then walked through the streets and alleys, trying to find the group of goblins.

Regrettably, the group of goblins had no idea where they were taking shelter. No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find any clues. In the end, he could only watch the Haechi leave.

This time has passed and it will be the fifth day since the demon spirit left the demon world.

Zhang Daoxian looked at the rising sun on a high mountain, and even thought about retreating...

It’s just that after this retreat, he may no longer have any fate with the demon spirits. In the future, it will be even more delusional to overthrow the Jade Emperor’s rule and become a great treasure.

 “Ah! Ah! Ah!”

 After dawn, Zhong Kui sat on his knees in his room in the Protectorate's Mansion, with black tendons spread on his face, and his whole body felt like it was being washed with water, and he let out bursts of wild beast-like screams.

 Ever since the immortal brought him back from the imperial capital three years ago, he would suffer from this disease every once in a while.

 Every time at this time, the immortal would bring the immortal soup and feed it to him to drink to get rid of the serious diseases.

However, today, the immortal has not yet arrived...

After suffering for a long time, Zhong Kui finally couldn't bear it anymore. He picked up the scabbard and slapped his head repeatedly, trying to knock himself out.

 But he broke his own head, blood flowed down his forehead, and he failed to faint as expected.

Holding back the pain, he grabbed the bamboo hat hanging on the wall, put it on his head with his hands, covered his face, walked out quickly, rushed to Uncle Jiu's door, and kept knocking on the door.

Uncle Jiu opened the door following the sound, and Zhong Kui fell directly into his room, holding his head and screaming in pain.



Uncle Jiu was stunned until he saw the terrifying black veins on the other person's face. He suddenly came to his senses and put his hand on his forehead, his expression gradually becoming serious.

　　"Please bear with me for a moment. I'll call Qin Yao. He has a magic that can cure all kinds of curses."

 “Curse?” Zhong Kui shuddered suddenly.

 So, this is not a bad disease at all, but a curse that someone planted on himself?
