Infinite Script Killing
Chapter 340 Lianshan County
"Your Majesty, there is news from the palace."
The housekeeper handed a piece of paper to him. Prince Gong was playing with the newly bought myna and had no time to pay attention to him. This myna was a Western product and was very interesting. Prince Gong was having fun these days.
He glanced at the note from the corner of his eye and motioned for the butler to read it to him. When the butler finished reading it, Prince Gong frowned.
"Why did another Holy Son of White Lotus appear??"
The housekeeper stepped forward and cautiously asked, "Do you think you should have someone get rid of this thing?"
What is the Holy Son of White Lotus? ?
This is about the White Lotus Sect, an organization that fought against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty. It is said that this organization once had a close relationship with the Third Prince Zhu. At its peak, it had 300,000 followers. Later, after Emperor Kang suppressed it, its core members disappeared.
But every few years, there would always be rumors about the White Lotus Son, the White Lotus Madonna, etc. The court was already used to it, and this time they actually sent out all the people from Qintian Prison. Obviously, things may not be that simple.
Prince Gong continued to tease Starling, and shook his head when he heard this: "It would be a pity to get rid of such a rare thing. Let the Holy Mother of Red Lotus go. The red lotus matches the white lotus, how beautiful it is."
The housekeeper nodded after hearing this and was about to leave when Prince Gong called him back: "Wait a minute, who did Qin Tianjian ask to go?"
"It's Deputy Superintendent Yang Gongjing. I heard that Fu Anning has been ill recently and has been coughing up blood all day long. People at the Imperial Hospital say he has lung disease. I'm afraid... he won't be able to survive this winter."
Hearing this, Prince Gong was stunned for a moment, waved his hand and asked the housekeeper to go down, picked up a small shovel made of gold, and dropped a spoonful of bird food into the myna's cage: "It's a pity, from now on, the divination of the sixteen hexagrams has been completely lost. Here you go."
"It's lost, it's lost!"
Myna shook his head and said imitatively.
At this moment, Yang Gongjing, Xu Mao and others looked at each other with troubled expressions on their faces.
They are not fools. The reputation of the White Lotus Sect in the world is no less than that of the Demon Sect in novels.
This organization is so evil, and it is also involved in the issue of opposing the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, that many people in the Jianghu have stayed away and never dared to get involved easily.
Now another Holy Son of White Lotus has popped up. If it were that simple, he could just order the local governor to send troops to destroy him. Why let Qin Tianjian go to assist him?
Seeing the expressions on several people's faces, Yang Gongjing knew that it was time to let out blood.
First, he looked at the Zhu family brothers and said: "The world is in chaos now and the court is employing people. Since he is a capable person with special skills, why should he wander around in the green forest and sleep in the open? If this is done, I can repair a book." Feng, order Shuntian Mansion to remove your wanted documents and recommend you a military position."
After speaking, he looked at Monk Huiyuan and Xu Mao and raised three fingers: "Three-year merit lantern."
Huiyuan and Xu Mao were both on the roster. Yang Gongjing was not polite to them. Six simple words were already the biggest condition.
Sure enough, after hearing these six words, Hui Yuan and Xu Mao suddenly showed joy on their faces, and nodded in agreement without thinking.
Qintianjian has stargazing towers on famous mountains all over the world, which are arranged in conjunction with the stars in the sky.
Firstly, it can suppress the dragon veins in the world, and secondly, it is equipped with merit lamps that are eager to be seen by practitioners all over the world.
It is said that if you light the merit lamp, a large amount of merit will flow into you every day for three years, which is enough to last for several years or even ten years of hard work.
In the event that the emperor holds a grand sacrificial ceremony, a large amount of additional merit will be added. They cannot refuse such a temptation, nor can they refuse it.
After all, this kind of treatment, in the past, would not be the turn of strangers like them.
In the past, even if Yang Gongjing agreed, it would have to be reported to the imperial court for approval at all levels. But now that Westerners are attacking the country, the emperor is busy carrying out reforms, especially those new schools of thought, which have left the Qintian Supervisor with nothing. value.
Nowadays, the Qintian Prison has become an unpopular government office. Not only does the emperor not care about this kind of thing at all, but even if Yang Gongjing plays the excerpt, he will be scolded by the emperor.
Being disliked by the emperor is obviously not a good thing, but for Qin Tianjian, it invisibly expands Qin Tianjian's power over foreigners.
For things like merit lanterns, you can now make the decision yourself, and you don’t need to worry about it as much as before.
Yang Gongjing was very satisfied with the attitude of the two people. She turned back to look at Xu Tong and Li Xi: "Let's set off on the road."
The two nodded, took out the carriage, and the group got on the road again.
On the way, Xu Tong asked in a low voice about the merit lantern. When Li Xi said it, Xu Tong was jealous.
The resources occupied by the Datong royal family are simply too rich. There are countless coveted treasures hidden in the huge forbidden palace.
It is a pity that there are countless rare treasures in the world, but they can only be reduced to private collections in the palace. If only some of them were taken out, the Datong Dynasty would not be so miserable.
"Headmaster, be careful about that monk!"
Daya sent a message to Xu Tong at the entrance of the hall: "I'm afraid this monk is already a half-step master."
As soon as Daya finished speaking, the monk suddenly noticed something and turned back to look at Xu Tong.
Xu Tong's skin tightened, and he felt as if he was being spied on, but at this time, the passive skill of the black brocade robe [Uncrowned King] was activated.
An evil spirit surged out, completely hiding Xu Tong's aura. The monk looked carefully for a while, but he couldn't figure out the reason, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
But after thinking about it, I felt relieved. After all, if the guards around Lord Qin Tianjian were not capable, how could they accompany him.
Huiyuan obviously didn't know that all the guards around the Lord died in childbirth last night.
Huiyuan couldn't tell what Xu Tong was doing, so she could only smile and nodded, and continued walking forward as if nothing was wrong.
Xu Tong then approached Li Xi and asked in a low voice about Xu Mao.
He was very curious in his heart. The fierce horse Xu Mao sat on was obviously a piece of paper, but at this moment it was like a living thing. How on earth could he do this.
Converting reality into reality is the skill of a great master. Is it possible that this Xu Mao is a person like the master?
This is obviously impossible. If he is really a great master, why should he pay attention to Xunjian's call?
Li Xi smiled: "Shadow paper play, shadow play is a branch of it. In fact, it is also the trick of Xiajiuli Caimen. It is said to have originated in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and came from the Western Regions. Later, it was lost for a while. , we didn’t expect to meet him this time, and our eyes were opened.”
"Hehe, little brother is very knowledgeable."
At this time, the pig boss turned around and looked at Li Xi. Li Xi subconsciously turned his head and cupped his hands and said, "No, I just heard people talk about it occasionally."
"oh!"
The pig boss nodded, took a closer look at Li Xi and said, "Little brother, I think you look familiar. I don't know how to call you?"
Li Xi was really panicking now. Fortunately, he put a hand on his shoulder and looked up to see Xu Tong's smiling face: "This is my good brother, Xi'er. I My name is Ma Hongwen, what do you call this big brother!"
Pig Boss looked as if he was stunned. He grinned at Xu Tong, showing his yellow teeth and said: "Little brother, I am very happy. I like Lao Zhu. We five brothers don't have serious names. If you don't mind, just call me Pig Boss." That’s it.”
"You're welcome, you're welcome!" Xu Tong bowed his hands towards the other four people.
Li Xi felt relieved when he saw Boss Zhu and the others' attention being diverted.
He cast a grateful look at Xu Tong.
None of the group was good at getting along, so they naturally traveled much faster. They traveled day and night, and there was a sense of competition among them.
By early the next morning, we had arrived at the boundary of Lianshan.
As a result, as soon as I entered Lianshan County, I saw white lanterns hanging at the door of every house in the county. There were only a few people on the road. When the cold wind blew, it became deserted.
This made Xu Tong and his party feel a little nervous, almost thinking that they had broken into the Dead Man's County.
Fortunately, after asking around, I found out that the county town has been very haunted recently.
Someone gave everyone an idea, saying that as long as you hang a white lantern at your door, you will be protected from evil spirits.
Now every house has hung up white lanterns.
"madness!"
After Yang Gongjing learned about the incident, he cursed the county magistrate for being incompetent and allowing such monstrous words to run rampant. In his opinion, this was pure nonsense and must be a conspiracy of the White Lotus Sect.
So with a dark face, he hurried to the county government office.
Finally, when I arrived at the gate of the county government office, I saw, my dear, while others were hanging two, this one actually had four. Not only were there four white lanterns hanging on it, but the drumsticks on the side were also painted white.
This made Yang Gongjing's nose crooked with anger. She took out her identity documents and motioned for Li Xi to go up and call the door.
Before Li Xi could call the door to come in, he saw that the door of the Yamen had already been opened.
A group of government officials were carrying several corpses out. When they saw Li Xi, they were startled: "Who are you?"
Li Xi took out the door sign with a dark face and threw it into the arms of the Yamen servant: "Master Qin Tianjian is here, ask your master to come and greet him quickly."
The officials were shocked when they heard this. After looking at each other, they quickly sent someone to report the news.
Xu Tong came over and took a look at the corpse that the government officials had brought out. He opened the cloth cover and saw that it was a middle-aged man, but his neck had been broken.
"How is this going?"
"Master Qi, this is a wealthy family in the county. But last night, he said that he encountered an evil spirit and his throat was twisted. Several of his friends also died together."
The guard hurriedly explained.
Xu Tong walked over and checked them one by one, and without exception, they were all killed in one move. However, at this time, he noticed that except for the first corpse, the palms of the other corpses were very rough.
Seeing this, he glanced sideways at the yamen officer. Although the other person's face was expressionless, his wandering eyes clearly showed a guilty conscience.
"Oh, that's it. You can carry it away."
He nodded and signaled to the government officials that they could carry the body away. The government officials breathed a sigh of relief and immediately carried the body out.
They put the body on the cart and pulled the body directly into a side alley. After making sure that no one was following behind, they wiped the cold sweat from their faces.
"Why did you come so fast? Something almost happened." A government official cursed.
"It's okay, it's okay. Let's get rid of the body quickly. Everyone, please be careful. If anyone shows off, be careful that the hall master will turn his back on you."
After the other yamen officer finished speaking, several people did not dare to delay and quickly left with the cart.
But they didn't notice that a huge mouse quietly poked half of its head out of the corner and heard what they just said clearly.
