Chapter 268: Killing the Chicken to Frighten the Monkey
Next, Xu Xuan began to travel around the world.
Mudan sometimes turned into a coachman, sometimes into a book boy.
This was also her first time going down the mountain in decades.
Linjiang City.
"Come and take a look at the freshly baked roasted pig's trotters."
The two walked through the snack street, and the aroma was fragrant.
"Do you want to eat?" Xu Xuan asked.
"No." Mudan shook her head. As a flower and grass elf, she likes to eat dew and breeze, not these delicacies in the world.
The two walked all the way.
Mudan didn't like prosperity, but she had traveled to many places. Such a prosperous city can only be seen in the Taoist sect.
Although the people in other regions can eat enough, they are much worse than here in terms of enjoyment.
The outer gate of the Taoist sect has a special economic department responsible for coordinating the operation of various cities.
Mudan didn't expect that money would cause such a wonderful change.
"Flowers, birds, and everything!"
The two came to the flower and bird market, where there were birds and plants everywhere, all locked in a small cage for others to buy.
"Are you one of your kind?" Xu Xuan really didn't understand.
"Master, don't you know that the difference between fairies and ordinary flowers and plants is like that between humans and monkeys. Although they look similar, they are fundamentally different." Mudan didn't know how to start.
"I see."
Soon, Xu Xuan's trace was discovered.
Several figures suddenly appeared in front.
"Disciple greets Master! I didn't know you were coming, please forgive me!!"
"Nothing." Xu Xuan didn't care. He didn't intend to hide. It was their business if they found out.
Sometimes, showing up appropriately can also deter things that haven't happened yet.
Next, the garrison commander led Xu Xuan on a tour.
The news of the Master's coming spread throughout the Dao Sect.
Dao Sect Spirit Garden
Several deacons were doing nothing, with indifferent expressions, not caring about anything.
One of the deacons who looked older said to the young deacon: "That's enough, do you still want to make achievements?"
"It's good to be more serious."
The older deacon sneered and said: "I was as passionate and energetic as you at the beginning. But after several consecutive setbacks, I finally understood a truth."
"What truth?"
"The more you do, the more mistakes you make. Taoism is an alternative officialdom. Sometimes it's easier to get promoted by being a slacker."
Most people stay in a certain realm for their whole lives. People in the same realm compete with each other, often comparing political achievements, merits, and qualifications.
Now that there are fewer demons and ghosts, the importance of qualifications is reflected. Qualifications have a lot of room for manipulation.
These people are often talented and dare to do things, but they never get the benefits, so they just live here and live one day at a time.
"The Taoist master is coming to Linjiang!"
Someone ran over in a hurry.
The old deacon's eyes lit up and he said, "What did the Taoist master say?"
"He looked around and left again."
Everyone was a little disappointed.
What doesn't change will never change, so let's just muddle along.
Just muddle along like this, anyway, it won't harm the world.
But who can tell what will happen in the future?
It's said that it won't harm the world, but who can tell what will happen in the future? When people feel that life is getting more and more boring, most people will choose more exciting things; then their wildness will be stimulated.
Xu Xuan traveled all the way to Beijiang.
Beijiang City.
In a teahouse outside the city, Zhang Song was dressed in casual clothes, restrained his breath, and dressed like a scholar who went out to travel.
He sat alone at a table, waiting for something.
Soon, a carriage arrived and a short old man got off.
"Master, I have found out that Zheng Wu and his wife disappeared mysteriously."
"Have you found out?"
"Yes, they were buried alive by Lin Tianbao. I followed the clues and found that Lin Tianbao had killed more than eight people."
"Why didn't the patrol soldiers report it before?"
"Everyone covered it up."
"I know, you go..."
After a while, another middle-aged man came over.
This man was Lin Lin.
"Zheng and his wife are dead, what's wrong with you? How did you teach your son?" Zhang Song scolded him.
The eyes of the people around him gathered.
Zhang Song waved his hand, and the figures of two people instantly appeared in the remote forest.
"This..." Lin Lin was also very shocked. He really didn't know about this. He had been neglecting his son before, and his subordinates often reported it, so there was nothing wrong.
I didn't expect that everyone was hiding it from me.
"What should I do?" Lin Lin had an idea in his mind, otherwise it would just pass?
Now it's not just about his son, it's also about his old friend's future. With the Taoist's personality, he will at least go all the way, even lock him up in the Yinfeng Cave for at least ten years.
Thinking of this, Lin Lin felt regretful and hateful.
"What should I do... Report it to the domain master."
Zhang Song sighed deeply and asked the domain master to punish him while there was still hope.
Beijiang River.
The river meanders and looks like a long dragon from the sky. The place where the river bends is a famous place of absolute yin, and it is also the residence of Beijiang Lord Lu Qian.
The perspective moves downward, passing through the gloomy black clouds, and the sunlight at noon instantly turns into sunset in the evening.
The dark green yin energy forms a piece of dark clouds, and the whistling dark wind makes this place extremely cold.
Maybe because of the long years of not seeing the sun, the branches of the trees here are black.
Under the dark clouds is a villa with black tiles and white walls. The villa is empty and looks gloomy and terrifying.
This is the charity mansion where Lu Qian practices zombies.
There are eighteen silver coffins in the charity mansion.
A middle-aged Taoist priest in a green robe holds a corpse-driving bell.
These are eighteen silver-armored corpses, with combat power equivalent to foundation building. The last battle made him feel good, and he could choose from various enemy corpses.
"Wait for the Taoist master to come out of retreat, and let him help to see if he can refine a golden armor corpse with the cultivation of a golden elixir. In this way, the Yin Shen lineage will prosper." Lu Qian was ambitious.
In this way, he would be the third golden elixir in the Taoist sect (not counting Xu Xuan), ranking after Tian Peng and Bai Fa.
Dingdangdang...
The wind chimes in the house rang.
Lu Qian frowned and raised his hand gently, as if some restrictions were lifted.
Soon, two people flew in.
"Greetings to the Taoist master!!"
"What's the matter?"
The two looked at each other and briefly explained the matter.
Lu Qian's expression was obviously a little angry, but thinking about it, it was also human nature to love his son.
At present, two generals were involved, and he was a little reluctant.
"Do you know what it means to be struck by five thunders? Look at what you have done." Lu Qian shouted at the two people, "Do you know that the Taoist master is coming?"
If the Taoist master comes, I am afraid that the plan of the golden armor corpse will be ruined, and I will also be punished.
Zhang Song said helplessly: "We two are willing to be punished according to the law."
As a disciple of the Taoist sect, he cannot make the same mistake again and again. Zhang Song did not expect that there would be a follow-up to this matter. Fortunately, it can still be saved. Although the person is dead, the murderers cannot go unpunished.
Lu Qian stopped talking, and the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
"Forget it, it has come to this point. The two people cannot be saved. All the files are destroyed. The matter is overturned. As for you..." Lu Qian pointed at Lin Lin and said, "Abolish Lin Tianbao's cultivation and confine him. I don't want him to step out of the door in this life!!"
"Thank you, Taoist priest!" Lin Lin knelt down excitedly.
Everyone can be saved, which is also a happy ending.
Zhang Song was a little absent-minded for a moment. Isn't this deceiving the superiors and the subordinates? Is it the best ending? Maybe he also had a fluke in his heart, so he acquiesced to the result of the matter.
Beijiang area.
Xu Xuan and Mudan flew on the cloud.
Mudan hesitated several times.
"Just say it if you have anything to say." Xu Xuan did not turn his head.
"Master, some people openly violate the Dao Law, why don't you deal with them?" Mudan asked.
Xu Xuan smiled lightly, and in the area below, what all the Dao soldiers saw and heard flowed through the sea of consciousness like a tide, and what happened in recent years and recently was accurately extracted.
Many people control the Dao soldiers, but they don't know that the Dao soldiers and their seeds are controlled by Xu Xuan, and all information cannot be hidden from him.
The source of the patrolling Dao soldiers is Xu Xuan. Although these memories are many, it is not difficult to deal with them in front of the supercomputing divine consciousness.
"When the time comes, either don't move, or catch them all in one fell swoop, and kill the chicken to scare the monkey... Huh? It's out?"
