I have been slaying demons in the Demon Slayer Division for thirty years
Chapter 10 Shock in Kyoto
Luo Jing.
City God's Temple.
Located in the most lively and prosperous North City, it covers an area of several acres, which can be described as vast in Kyoto, where every inch of money is available.
At this time, a Dharma assembly was being held, and hundreds of people gathered to burn incense and pray under the leadership of Miao Zhu from the Chenghuang Temple.
Kyoto has only been cloudy for a few days since March, without a drop of rain falling.
The City God and the Land are the most efficacious gods in Luofu, with strong incense and a wide range of believers. Several rain-praying ceremonies have been held in succession.
Below the main hall of the City God's Temple, in a place not accessible to ordinary people, there is also a City God's Temple, which is no different from the temple on the ground.
This is the residence of the City God of Kyoto, with gloomy winds and ghosts crying and gods howling.
At this time, the city god was sitting on the throne, the four judges on the left and right, and the twenty-four chief officials gathered together, looking worriedly at the ground to worship.
The Temple of the City God in Kyoto is second to none in Daqian. The City God headed by it is a righteous god who has ruled the Yin Division in Kyoto for hundreds of years.
The four great judges were ranked in the second rank of Shinto, and there were more than thirty Shinto officials in the third rank. Even the Daqian court, which canonized ghosts and gods, treated them equally.
The chief officer of the Induction Department is an elegant scholar. He keeps calculating with his fingers and has an anxious look on his face.
"Sir, compared to the sacrifice ten days ago, the number of incense believers this time has decreased by 30%. If this continues, the prestige accumulated by the Kyoto City God for hundreds of years will definitely fall short!"
Cheng Huang frowned slightly. With his mysterious power, how could he not understand the changes?
On March 22nd, the first rain praying ceremony attracted over 10,000 believers and the incense was at its peak.
After that, it was folded in half and three times again. Several prayers for rain failed, and now there are only a thousand devout believers left.
If it doesn't rain, there won't even be hundreds of people next time. What's more serious is that it's difficult to gather believers, and once you break your trust, it's hard to get it back.
"What can I do?"
The City God sighed: "There is no yellow record of rainfall. Raining without permission is a capital crime. Hundreds of years of practice will be ruined in one day."
"What are all the officials in the court doing? In the year of the severe drought, rain was banned!"
"Hmph! There must be some treacherous officials who are trying to stop me. If I had been the official back then, I would have cut off a few heads first."
"The prince is still too young to supervise the country."
"Master Li, please be careful. How can everything in the court be concealed from today?"
"Be careful what you say!"
…
Many of the City God's priests were officials during their lifetime, accumulated a lot of merit, and became officials of the City God's Temple after their death.
He experienced officialdom during his lifetime, and saw all the yin and yang after his death. His eyelashes were all empty. How could he not see that the situation in the imperial court was strange.
Discord between kings and ministers, fathers and sons seizing power, factional struggles, taking advantage of disasters to eliminate demons...
In an instant, dozens of dramas have been imagined in his mind.
The court has a thousand reasons for not raining, and there are ten thousand reasons for ignoring the lives and deaths of the people.
"Okay, I'm going to meet my old friend in the south of the city tonight to see if there is any news from him."
The City God waved his hand to stop the discussion. If he continued talking, he might have violated the taboo of the court.
The power of the Kyoto City God is powerful, not weaker than that of several great immortals, and he is unwilling to cause trouble for no reason.
Tuigong, the Tudigong of the Tutu Temple in the east of the city, had a much younger time in cultivation than Chenghuang. However, Tudigong had an unusual status during his lifetime and had a close relationship with Da Qian.
After more than two hundred years of accumulated incense power, his strength is no weaker than that of the City God.
The chief officer of the Lailu Department said: "The Lord of the Land was King Huai during his lifetime, so he must have known some news."
The expressions of the other chief officials of the Yin Division are different. The Chenghuang Temple in Kyoto and the Earth Temple in the north and south do not deal with each other on weekdays.
Tu Tu Gong was a member of the royal family of Daqian. Although he was fair in doing things, otherwise he would not be a god. However, he would definitely support the imperial court in many matters, which was looked down upon by some Shinto monks.
Boom!
There was an explosion of thunder, followed closely by the howl of the wind.
The source of the sound was the City God's Temple in charge of the underworld in Kyoto, so it was naturally heard clearly.
"Wind and thunder meet, water vapor condenses, this is the method of rainfall!"
"Who dares to rain without permission? Could it be that the landowner has obtained the yellow record of rainfall!"
"It's impossible. No matter how biased the court is, it won't treat you so differently."
"Who can say clearly, has this kind of thing been rare in a hundred years?"
The City God kept pinching his fingers, but he could not figure out the source of the rain spell. He could only vaguely sense that the person who cast the spell was in the capital.
"Without the aura of divine power, it is not a spell cast by the south of the city. The wind, thunder, and water vapor are clear and agile. It is the authentic rainfall spell of the Taoist sect!"
When the officials of the Yin Division heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other. Is there such a bold Taoist priest now?
The Daqian Dynasty feared the power of Heaven, and the Buddhist, Taoist, and supernatural powers within the territory were under its jurisdiction. Among them, those belonging to the Taoist sect had the most difficult time surviving.
Taoist monks advocate inaction and freedom. Many of their ideas are incompatible with the laws of the imperial court and have been suppressed by the imperial court. Normally, I would suppress them if nothing happened, but now I catch the Taoist monks and rain rain without authorization. I don’t know how much turmoil it will cause.
The City God sighed, as if he saw Monk Yue breaking into the Demon Slayer Division.
"Pity……"
The seventh day of June.
Rain praying ceremony at Chenghuang Temple.
Luojing has a radius of hundreds of miles, and the rain is pouring, the rivers are full, and most of the drought has been eliminated.
Immediately afterwards, the four great immortals sent dozens of immortal masters, and the ghosts and ghosts under the command of Chenghuang Tudi searched Luojing for several days.
In the end, the search failed to find the Taoist priest who made rain without authorization, and a group of demons lurking in the dark were captured, which relieved Emperor Jingtai's anger.
…
The Demon Slayer Division.
The torture chamber.
After the use of Conjuring Wind and Rain, most of the mana in Zhou Yi's body was drained.
"It's a pity that it's underground. I don't know how effective it will be. After five thousand years of Taoism, at least there can be a thunderstorm, right?"
Zhou Yi picked up the remains of the snake demon and slowly walked towards the demon refining cave.
As Tao Xing grows, Zhou Yi can see more and more by using Zhan Wang Qi Technique.
The evil spirit in the Demon Refining Cave is much stronger than what it was just when we traveled through it. In another few decades, it may be able to solidify.
"Evil energy takes shape, and it is either a natural treasure or a peerless monster. Who would have thought that the people living in Kyoto would step on bombs all the time."
Zhou Yi was not interested in this. The Demon Slayer Division had existed for hundreds of years and was built by Emperor Guangming of Daqian Zhongxing. During this period, there had never been any problems. There must be a way to solve the evil spirit.
"Set a small goal and practice Taoism for ten thousand years!"
…
A few days later.
Zhou Yi took over the errand as usual, today there were two demons per person.
According to the captain, the imperial court was dissatisfied with the public security in Kyoto. After conducting an investigation, many lurking demons were found, and all of them were sent to the Demon Slayer Division.
His Majesty was furious and ordered that he be executed immediately without trial.
Prison No. 7.
Zhou Yi came in and found a young and beautiful woman in a red shirt.
Spiritual vision!
A flash of light flashed through his eyes, and he saw through the woman's illusion. It was a red fox more than four feet long.
Zhou Yi ignored the beauty of women. He had killed at least twenty or thirty vixens, and he had seen many beautiful and handsome men.
The instrument of torture passed across the fox demon's neck, and his body and soul were cut into two pieces at the same time. The only valuable eyes on the fox demon's body were his eyes.
The fox demon is good at illusions, and its eyes can be refined into famous elixirs or special magic weapons.
"No response from the Demon Illustrated Book?"
Zhou Yi frowned slightly and killed thousands of demons. This was the first time he encountered this situation.
The magic power is running, and the demon soul that is about to disperse is captured with a wave of the hand. Due to being killed by the special torture instrument, even if it is maintained by magic, it will not take long for the soul to fly away.
The demon soul is dull and illusive, and it is obvious that no results can be obtained.
Soul searching!
One memory picture after another appeared before Zhou Yi's eyes.
