Become a disciple of Taoist Priest Four Eyes

Chapter 699: Cannibals are monsters and should be punished

…

After leaving Yuejia Town, Yue Xiang, who was a little sad before, instantly turned into a bird escaping from his cage and became excited.

"Grandmaster, where should we go next?"

"Disciples have always heard that Kaifeng, the capital of the Song Dynasty, is a prosperous and prosperous place with a wealth of natural treasures and a population of tens of millions. Why don't we go there?"

Xu Junming nodded slightly.

He also wanted to go to Kaifeng Mansion.

"Let's go. This place is still thousands of miles away from Kaifeng Mansion. It's a good time to see the scenery of the Song Dynasty along the way."

Yue Xiang couldn't help but show a look of anticipation on his face.

The grandfather and grandson took steps forward, one hundred meters at a time, getting further and further away from Yuejia Town.

…

He looked at the city in front of him that covered an area of ​​nearly a hundred miles and was built entirely with blue boulders. The city walls were thick and ten feet high, and were equipped with formations.

"Master, is this Dongchuan Fucheng?"

Xu Junming looked at it for a moment and nodded slightly.

"The largest city within a thousand miles is right here, that's right. Besides, don't you see it written there?"

Yue Xiang didn't pay attention at first, because the dozen or so heads hanging there were really an eyesore.

Xu Junming has experienced four worlds and is used to seeing life and death, so he no longer cares about it.

"Let's go and take a look inside. If there are demons, kill them. If there are no demons, just stay for a day and then leave."

"Master, why don't you go to Uncle Han's house of Golden Tiger Escort Agency?"

"Did I forget about Han Bacheng? Well, since we are here, let's go and take a look."

After the two entered the door, they made some inquiries and soon found the location of the Golden Tiger Escort Agency.

Although the Golden Tiger Escort Agency is not considered a big force in Dongchuan City, it is still considered a powerful and wealthy class.

The escort office is located in a mansion with a green tile roof, black pillars as beams, stone lions guarding both sides, and a red door with golden nails.

He took a brief look at the four-character gold book "Golden Tiger Escort Agency" hanging above the courtyard door, with yellow edges and a green background.

"Master, I'll call the door."

Yue Xiang volunteered and ran to the front.

Two guards guarding the gate quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"stop."

"Two eldest brothers, I am the son of Yue He, Yuejia Town, Landing County, four hundred miles away. My father is an old friend of your General Bodyguard Han. My ancestor, Taoist Master Chongshan, is also related to your General Bodyguard. A life-saving grace.”

"I passed by Dongchuan today and came here to pay my respects. I would like to ask the two eldest brothers to send a message."

The tall escort looked him up and down.

"Are you really the son of a member of the Yue Family Town?"

"I am Yue Xiang, my father's eldest son."

The escort had obviously also been to Yuejia Town with Han Bacheng.

"Sure enough, he is somewhat similar to Yue Yuanwai. Just wait a moment, I will go and inform you."

"Thank you."

It didn't take long, and the rapid footsteps inside got closer and closer.

"Where is my nephew-in-law?"

As he spoke, Han Bacheng, wearing a purple robe, a jade belt around his waist, and a golden crown, walked out in a hurry.

At a glance, he saw a young man standing on the front steps, wearing a green Taoist robe, with arms and waist like a wasp, holding a bamboo stick, and a yellow gourd hanging from his waist.

"Oh my dear nephew, it is indeed you."

After Yue Xiang was born, Han Bacheng passed by as an escort and met him several times.

Although the two have not seen each other for two years, their general descriptions are unmistakable.

In particular, Yue Xiang was 70% or 80% similar to Yue He, so Han Bacheng recognized them at a glance.

"My nephew meets Uncle Han."

"Get up quickly, there is no need to be polite. Your father and I are close friends of life and death. When you come to my place, you are at home."

"Thank you Uncle Han for your kindness."

"You child, you have become more reserved as you grow older. By the way, did your father come with you? Where is he? Take me to see him quickly."

"My father is not here. I traveled here with my master and came here to pay a visit to Uncle Han."

Han Bacheng looked overjoyed.

"You mean Taoist Master Chongshan is here?"

Yue Xiang nodded.

"Where are you? Take me to see you quickly." Han Bacheng said impatiently.

Before Yue Xiang could speak, Xu Junming's figure had already arrived beside the two of them as the light flickered.

"Jushi Han, you're welcome!"

Han Bacheng quickly bowed and saluted.

"Taoist Priest, twelve years have passed, and Han Bacheng has never been able to thank Taoist Priest for his life-saving grace. Today, Jade Toe is coming, so I must stay a few more days to fulfill my long-cherished wish."

Although he later received a letter from Yue He, knowing that Xu Junming was not dead, he dared to go to Yuejia Town to see him, but Xu Junming had no choice but to retreat and refine the demonic energy of the Golden-winged Dapeng's corpse and was unable to see him.

I passed by a few times later and it was the same.

Therefore, strictly speaking, this is the first time the two have met since they separated at the Yue family fifteen years ago.

"You are so polite, Master Han. I, a Taoist, have no measure of appreciation for others, and never seek anything in return. Xiang'er and I have traveled here today, and will stay with you for a day or two before we continue our journey."

"Taoist Master, my dear nephew, let's not talk about this for now. Please come in quickly, and we'll talk after we get in."

Han Bacheng warmly welcomed the two of them to the living room in the front yard. The servants served them tea, and before the three of them could chat for a while.

The roar of the salute came from afar.

Along with the wind comes the festive sound of playing, playing and singing.

"Uncle Han, whose family is getting married? It's such a big fanfare." Yue Xiang asked curiously.

Han Bacheng sighed.

"This is the wedding of the local city god."

"City God. City God?"

Yue Xiang understood instantly and frowned.

"Uncle Han, the City God is the god of the underworld, why would the marriage take place in this earthly world?"

"Speaking of it, it is also a local custom. Every year on the third day of April, the Chenghuang of Dongchuan Fucheng will get married. The ceremony lasts for seven days before resting. Today is the seventh day."

"From Uncle Han's tone, the woman chosen by the City God is from the Yang world?"

"Exactly."

"Damn it! There is such an evil god in the world who cares so little about human life."

Yue Xiang's sword eyebrows stood up, his face full of anger.

"Shua" stood up and said, "Master, let me kill that evil god and eliminate a great harm to the world."

Han Bacheng was startled and quickly stood up to stop him.

"Good nephew, don't make mistakes. That City God is a righteous god who possesses the magical power of the Yuan Shen and has been officially consecrated by the Immortal Court. If you offend him, you will be killed."

Seeing Yue Xiang's face tensed and silent, he waited quietly for Xu Junming's order.

Han Bacheng turned around quickly.

"Taoist Master, you must advise Xiang'er. There are some things that are beyond our control, and there are some people that we cannot provoke."

Xu Junming smiled and nodded to him, waving his hand to signal him to be calm.

Turned.

He looked at Yue Xiang calmly.

"Xiang'er, although this Dongchuan Prefecture City God takes a living person as his wife, he provides generous financial resources to his father-in-law's family, only if the other party is satisfied. He never robs, let alone bullies others. In fact, countless poor families are eager to do so. Get married to him and you can become rich overnight and get rid of poverty."

"Moreover, in order to achieve the improvement of wealth and status, countless poor people left behind baby girls who should have drowned. Therefore, this city god's marriage can be regarded as countless living people and has a lot of merit."

"Overall, his merits outweigh his faults."

"If you kill it, of course no more women will be killed; but there will be too many babies drowned by poor families who cannot feed them or are unwilling to raise their baby girls."

"Save one person and sacrifice thousands."

"Now, are you still willing to kill that City God?"

"I?"

Yue Xiang looked struggling.

The murderous intent on his face turned into hesitation.

He is just a fledgling, although he is very talented and has good cultivation.

But I have never experienced the cunning of the human heart, the helplessness of worldly affairs, and when encountering difficult things, I don’t know how to deal with them for a while.

Xu Junming turned around.

"Jushi Han, can you prepare a room for us?"

"Of course."

Han Bacheng hoped that Yue Xiang could calm down and stop causing trouble. Otherwise, no matter what, he would not be ashamed to see his sworn brother.

"Taoist Master, please come with me."

He personally led the way and took the two of them to the left courtyard of the Golden Tiger Escort Agency.

This was originally a place to receive distinguished guests, so it seemed very quiet.

Take the two to the best yard.

"Taoist Master, how is it here?"

I looked around.

"This is it."

"As long as the Taoist priest is satisfied, I'll have my servants bring the bedding later."

"Thank you, layman."

"Taoist Master, you are polite. This is what you should do." He took a step forward and lowered his voice, "I hope Taoist Master will definitely dissuade Xiang'er and don't let him get involved in the city god's marriage. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, How can I explain to Kunzhu in the future?"

Xu Junming smiled lightly.

"Don't worry, layman, he won't do anything random."

"That's good, that's good. ... The Taoist Master has come all the way, and he must have worked hard. Let's rest here first. The food and bedding will be delivered soon."

"Thank you."

After nodding with a smile, he glanced at Yue Xiang worriedly, and then went out with a heavy heart.

After he left, Xu Junming looked at Yue Xiang, whose expression changed, sometimes full of murderous look, sometimes full of contradictions.

I know that at this moment, he is thinking fiercely about countermeasures.

Xu Junming smiled lightly and did not bother.

This is something that every fledgling monk will experience.

It is also a necessary process for the growth of mind.

Time passed little by little. Perhaps out of worry, Han Bacheng came over every half an hour. After seeing that Yue Xiang was still here, he said a few words to Xu Junming and then stood up to say goodbye.

Night gradually enveloped the room, and the dim candlelight dispelled the darkness in the room.

"Bang, bang!"

The table and chairs overturned, and the already cold dinner was spilled on the floor.

Yue Xiang stood up suddenly and rushed to Xu Junming with a determined expression.

"Master, I thought of it."

Xu Junming, who was sitting cross-legged and meditating, had already opened his eyes at this moment.

"Tell me."

"Then Dongchuan City God should be killed!"

"Why should we kill!"

"Master often said: Cannibals are monsters and should be punished! In the past, my disciples were stupid and only understood the meaning of the words. But today, when they met the Dongchuan City God, they lost their sense of proportion, hesitated, and had nothing to do. It was really embarrassing. Should."

"After thinking hard all afternoon, I finally understood the meaning of Master's past teachings."

"A man-eater is a demon."

"Although the Dongchuan City God gave back a lot of money to his father-in-law's family, which seemed fair, it was actually a helpless act. If it weren't for the fact that the Song Dynasty was ruling the world and the law was strict, and he couldn't let him act according to his nature, I'm afraid he would have let go , Eat all the common people in this city."

"As for keeping thousands of baby girls alive, it was not his original intention. How can this merit be attributed to him?!"

"Therefore, a man-eater is a demon."

"Behead!"

In an instant, Yue Xiang's body was filled with evil energy, and his energy and blood were soaring to the sky.

Xu Junming nodded with satisfaction.

"Since you have thought clearly and the information is clear, then go ahead."

"Disciple, go now."

Yue Xiang's expression was shocked, and he turned into a stream of light and disappeared instantly. It disappeared into the black night sky in the blink of an eye.

Looking at his leaving back, Xu Junming smiled and nodded.

"After this, I believe he can grow a lot."
