Chapter 0522: Accepting the Law for the Disciple

"I'm back." Zhou Qianhui said with a smile. This is a great shame for him. The dignified leader of the Yashan Divine Engineering Department was actually defeated by a group of low-level Taoist priests and became a prisoner with a free rope. But look at him His expression seemed to be sipping tea with an expert from outside the world, without any hint of frustration or anger.

The two looked at each other for a while, and Mu Xingqiu said, "Are you here to steal Baldy?"

Zhou Qianhui lowered his gaze, "To be precise, I'm here to protect his safety, because I heard that you left the Taoist priest, which is not a safe approach."

Mu Xingqiu snorted. He didn't doubt Zhou Qianhui's purpose, but he could imagine his methods. In order to protect Baldy's "safety", the best way was to take Baldy away. Zhou Qianhui must have sneaked into the camp. , Unexpectedly, the invading Taoist priests had already laid a trap.

"Where's Zuo Liuying?"

Zuo Liuying claimed that he was going to Yashan to bring Feiba back, but Feiba had already escaped. He had strong magic power and a month was enough to travel back and forth to Yashan. He had not returned yet, as if he was avoiding the limelight. Mu Xingqiu had never understood Zuo Liuying's thoughts, and now he was even more confused, unable to confirm whether he was an enemy or a friend.

"I made an excuse to leave on the way. Zuo Liuying should have gone to Asan alone. He hasn't come back yet, maybe he was left behind." Zhou Qianhui told the story of how the two parted ways, then paused for a moment and continued. Said: "I think we should have a good talk. The invading Taoist priests are getting more and more out of control. They actually imprisoned me. Even the Yashan disciples refused to speak for me. Do you know what this means?"

Mu Xingqiu stared into Zhou Qianhui's eyes, "It means you are our prisoner."

Zhou Qianhui kept smiling, "Yes, I am a prisoner. The leader of the Yashan Divine Engineering Department is now a prisoner in the hands of a group of Taoist priests. Before the demon-slaying battle in Baizhang City, could you imagine such a thing? Even just a month ago, I just When leaving, the Taoist priests did not dare to touch me. They would hand Mu Songxuan to me obediently and send me out of the camp. Now everything has changed. The awe of Taoism among the Taoist priests is disappearing. This means that their Taoist hearts, whether formed or not, are cracking and collapsing, which is a precursor to becoming possessed.”

"You didn't expect that there would be other reasons for the changes in the Taoist priest?"

"Well, I heard that Xuanwu Youliao attacked the camp after Zuo Liuying and I left, and everyone thought it was ordered by Taoism.

"Isn't it?"

"It's impossible for me to know, but a true Taoist priest, no matter how undisciplined he is, will voluntarily sacrifice his life when the Taoism needs it, without any complaints."

Mu Xingqiu laughed. Indeed, he had seen many Taoist priests devote themselves to Taoism without any regrets. They died in a peaceful mood, which moved the viewers and made them admired. It was because of this that Mu Xingqiu was inspired to wholeheartedly want to Joined Pangshan, but now...

"You made a mistake." Mu Xingqiu said.

"Oh?" Zhou Qianhui's expression showed that he was disapproving of this.

"The Taoist priests of the Demonic Invasion set up the Seven-Yuan Hidden Star Formation to guard against not only Lan Curling, but also monsters like You Liao. It was at the time when they were most suspicious and on guard that you secretly broke into the camp and catered to their every wish. Suspicious. If you walk into the camp openly from the beginning, no one will stop you from taking anything, even if you want to kill someone, you will not be opposed."

Zhou Qian thought about it for a while, "Even so, they are getting closer and closer to being possessed. Soon, you will not face one possessed person, but a group. Believe me, if You Liao is really sent by Taoism , it will only do you good and no harm.”

Looking at Zhou Qianhui who defended Taoism wholeheartedly, Mu Xingqiu suddenly had a terrible thought in his heart: The demons directly used magic to control the monsters and made them loyal to them wholeheartedly. What did Taoism use to make the Taoist priests die without regrets? It's definitely not a spell, maybe it's some more subtle and hidden method.

Zhou Qianhui's calm smile became a bit hateful in Mu Xingqiu's eyes. He had seen the same smile on the faces of many Taoist priests, which once made him very envious and even tried to imitate it.

Mu Xingqiu summoned the ball of light from the treasure bag.

The two small copper seals together maintain a lightning net, so that Mu Xingqiu does not have to cast spells all the time. He only needs to inject a little spell every once in a while. The light ball is bound in the net, but it still has not yielded. They were rushing left and right inside, and there was never a moment of silence.

Mu Xingqiu placed the trapped light ball between the two of them, "Do you recognize it?"

Zhou Qianhui didn't even look at it, "Where did you get it?"

“From a demon clan that was unwilling to kill me.

Zhou Qianhui was silent for a while, "There are some things that you have to stand high enough to see clearly the reasons and truth."

"Many people have said similar things to me." Mu Xingqiu put away the ball of light. He had already got the answer. The ball of light was indeed a Taoist spell. Zhou Qianhui recognized it but was unwilling to introduce it in detail, "I really think you should change it." Excuse."

"Be careful, evil thoughts all start with doubt, you should know this very well."

Mu Xingqiu turned around and walked out of the tent. He had not released the ball of light because he felt that the time had not come yet. If the ball of light really flew back to Yashan, he did not have the ability to deal with it now, so he might as well pretend to be confused for the time being.

"This is a big trouble." Xin Youtao, who was waiting outside, nodded tacitly to Mu Xingqiu, "We originally suggested letting him go, but everyone was too nervous, and you were not here, and no one was willing to make the decision. As a result, ——We can’t let go even if we want to. We are hiding in this remote snow mountain to prevent the news from being leaked. "

"Zhou Qianhui has bad intentions." Xiao Qingtao glanced at the bald man, "Yashan has made a promise before, Zhou Qianhui broke it first, Daotong... Yashan can't protect him."

The bald man was holding the skull lantern to avoid Xiaohao's touch. Hearing this, he jumped to Mu Xingqiu's shoulder, "You can take out anything in my brain. Even if you split me in half, I won't cry out in pain, but don't hand me over. Even if Pangshan comes to take me, I won't leave."

The bald man squinted his eyes, but he had no tears to shed, so he could only show a bitter face, "I don't need to eat or drink water, I can fly by myself, so I'm easy to feed."

Mu Xingqiu smiled, "No matter if it's begging, stealing or robbing, whoever wants to take you away, I won't agree."

Mu Xingqiu spoke more cautiously than before. It was not that he deliberately left room for maneuver, but the Frost Soul Sword slipped out of his hand several times, which made him deeply understand how powerless the oath of the weak is.

The bald man didn't think too much. He jumped up and down excitedly, shouting, "I don't agree either." Then he turned his eyes to Xiaohao, Xin Youtao and Xiao Qingtao in turn.

Xin Youtao and Xiao Qingtao both smiled and said "no", only Xiaohao looked at the skull lantern with envy, "Let me touch it, I will always stand on your side."

The bald man glanced at Mu Xingqiu, and after getting a signal, he handed the skull lantern over, "Just once."

Gan Zhiquan walked from a distance on the thick snow, and Xin Youtao said to Xiao Qingtao, "Let's go and help refine the elixir."

Xiao Qingtao knew Xin Youtao's intention, and said to Xiaohao and the bald man, "Have you two seen the refining of elixir?"

The two were immediately interested in this sentence and followed Xiao Qingtao obediently. The bald man hesitated for a while, until Mu Xingqiu promised him that he would not leave secretly, he felt relieved to watch the fun.

Gan Zhiquan stopped seven steps away from Mu Xingqiu, his face no longer showing any sadness, "You saved us again."

"I just found out what magic Lan Binghu used, and it was someone else who made the elixir."

"At least you think we are worth saving." Gan Zhiquan glanced at the tent where Zhou Qianhui was imprisoned, "I decided to keep him, because I was worried that after he failed this time, he would not be sneaky next time, which would be more dangerous for the Moqing Taoist."

Mu Xingqiu was slightly surprised, because Gan Zhiquan's idea was similar to his. Zhou Qianhui's biggest mistake was not to trust the Moqing Taoist, and his behavior of sneaking into the camp aroused public anger. If he made any request openly, he might get the approval of a large number of Taoists.

"Anyway, Zhou Qianhui should have followed us, so it's not wrong to keep him."

Gan Zhiquan nodded and pointed to a small tent nearby, indicating that he wanted to talk privately.

This tent was originally Mu Xingqiu's residence. After he left, Baldy lived here alone. He didn't have much stuff, and almost nothing was moved. However, there were several "正" characters carved on the tabletop of the small wooden table. It was probably Baldy counting how long Xiaoqiu had been away.

Mu Xingqiu felt guilty.

"Tell me more about the 're-annihilation method'." Gan Zhiquan didn't notice these details. He was more concerned about something else.

Mu Xingqiu summoned the black-striped straw hat. "This is a spell passed down by the demons: kill a person, and then seal the soul of this person in the original body. On the surface, this person is still alive, the body will not age, and the soul can also feel the things outside normally, as if it has gained eternal life."

"But this person will always be loyal to the caster?"

"Well, if the caster does not make any demands, this person is still free and can retain all the previous thoughts and judgments." Mu Xingqiu paused for a while. He did not have a thorough understanding of the law of the Demon Lord. "This is the conclusion I have drawn from my observation so far."

"You have already cast the method of re-annihilation once."

"Pei Zihan. There is one thing I want to make clear first. The body of the person being cast may undergo obvious changes. Lan Binghu and Pei Zihan both grew wings after Fei Ba cast the spell. Pei Zihan grew a tail after I cast the spell for the second time, and it will always be there."

Pei Zihan originally had a tail that appeared every once in a while, but now it will never disappear again.

Gan Zhiquan thought for a while, "That is to say, if I allow you to cast a spell on my brother, whether he will be free in the future depends entirely on whether you make a request to him."

Mu Xingqiu nodded.

Gan Zhiquan fell into deep thought again, this time for a longer time, "Can the method of re-destruction really cut off the evil thoughts?"

"To be honest, I'm not sure. I know very little about the law of the Demon Lord, and many things are guessed."

Gan Zhiquan took a deep breath, raised his head slightly, and said seriously: "Under normal circumstances, I would not agree to such a thing. I would rather let my brother's soul fly away than let him be controlled by outsiders. But the situation is different now. The most important thing is that you are different. I have seen what you did with my own eyes, and I am willing to believe you. So-"

Gan Zhiquan stepped forward, "Please cast a spell on me first. If everything is the same as you guessed, cast a spell on my brother. If the spell fails, please exercise your power and kill both of us brothers."
