Pawn Crossing the River

In fact, Qi Xuansu could fire a gun just now. Whether it was accuracy or speed, he was not inferior to Yao Pei's flying knives. It was just because the price of "Long Eye Yi Yi" was too expensive. If it was not necessary, I really didn't want to blind Taiping. money.

At first, Qi Xuansu didn't know the specific price, because he had only used the free "Long Jing Yi Yi". If he had to spend money to buy it, the most expensive one was "Long Jing Yi Er", which cost ten yuan in peace money each time. When he thought about it, "Long Jing Yi Yi" meant twenty yuan of peace money per hand, so he gave Yao Pei a gun without hesitation.

Later, he asked someone to inquire, and found out that the price of each round of "Long Jing Yi Yi" was as high as 50 Taiping coins. Yao Peibai gave him twenty rounds of "Long Eye Yi Yi", which was equivalent to 1,000 Taiping coins. Qi Xuansu then Afterwards, I realized that my niece was very generous. Of course, it's also possible that it was given by someone else and Yao Pei hadn't even opened it, so he didn't feel sorry for it at all. .

In any case, Qi Xuansu couldn't afford to spend. He only had one hundred Taiping in total. He shot Yao Pei with a gun and Qi Jianyuan with a gun. It was equivalent to spending a hundred Taiping. Thinking about it makes me feel sad. , the key point is that with his financial resources, he can't replenish it in a short while, so one shot is used less, and the remaining eighteen shots need to be used sparingly. Just like the situation just now, if it is not a sneak attack and hits the vital point, the power that one shot of "Dragon Eye Yiyi" can exert is quite limited, and there is no need to fire it.

Qi Xuansu put away the "Dragon Painting Gun" and asked, "Do you want to inform Mr. Sun?"

Yao Pei pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "You can inform me."

Qi Xuansu asked again: "Since we have confirmed that Hu Jiaode is suspected, can we hand it over to Mr. Sun?"

Yao Pei glanced at him: "Why do you have such an idea?"

Qi Xuansu said: "With Master Sun's level of cultivation, isn't it easy to find someone?"

"It can't be that simple." Yao Pei shook his head and said, "Master Sun is not an alchemist. There is no such thing as covering the Dao Palace with just one thought. Even if Master Sun is an alchemist, the interior of the Wanxiang Dao Palace is very complicated, with large formations There are countless small arrays that are interlocking with each other. Take the Zhenyuan where we live, the Duiyuan where Gaopin teaches, and the Kunyuan where the assistant teacher lives. Almost every house has a separate supporting array. There are ninety-nine libraries in Genyuan, the auditorium in Qianyuan, and the teaching building in Kanyuan. Count them yourself. How many formations are there in Shanggong? Even the alchemist cannot even fly in the air. It’s also difficult to spread the idea.”

Qi Xuansu was startled: "In that case, why didn't you pursue me just now?"

Yao Pei asked back: "Why don't you pursue me?"

Qi Xuansu said calmly: "This Hu Jiaode is much more powerful than Qi Jianyuan, and he has a life-threatening posture. If I rush after him, I will probably fall into the tiger's mouth. If you, a great master of heaven and man, don't move, how can I dare to act rashly?"

Yao Pei said: "After informing Mr. Sun about this matter, the biggest significance is that Mr. Sun can mobilize the spiritual officials in the Taoist Palace to slowly investigate. After all, the Taoist Palace is closed at this time, and he is equivalent to a turtle in the urn, and he will always be found. However, it does not mean that it will be fast, it will still take some time. However, everyone will know that there is something fishy about Qi Jianyuan's death, and even the affairs of Ziguang Society will be exposed. There is no airtight wall in the world. The key is. It depends on whether it is intentional or not. After this matter becomes serious, people who are intentional will definitely dig into it, which is something the master does not want to see. "

Qi Xuansu raised objections: "After Qi Jianyuan's accidental death, this matter has become a big deal. A deputy hall master of Ziwei Hall died inexplicably in Wanxiang Taoist Palace. It will inevitably attract the attention of others. Do you expect to kill with that so-called love?" To cover up the past?"

Yao Pei said calmly: "At least until now, it is still under control, because the Wanxiang Dao Palace is isolated from the inside and outside, and neither the Zimu Talisman nor the ordinary 'Message Talisman Array' can transmit messages. The "Xunfu Array" is an exception, and now Master Sun is in charge of this "Xunfu Array". He only informed the master of the palace, Master Donghua, and Master Qi of Shuzhou Taoist Government. None of the three will leak the news, so outsiders have no way of knowing about Qi Jianyuan's death."

Qi Xuansu frowned and said, "But there will always be a day when the Wanxiang Dao Palace will be unblocked."

Yao Pei's face was so calm that it was almost indifferent, and he said: "As long as we deal with all these evil cult monsters before the Wanxiang Dao Palace is unsealed, and then secretly execute the scourge Pei Muyu, and announce to the outside world that he died suddenly of being possessed, even if others know about it, There is no proof of this matter, so there is no way to blame it on Quanzhen Taoism, that’s enough.”

Qi Xuansu was shocked.

He suddenly understood that this was Yao Pei's fundamental purpose, not to seek revenge, but to avoid leaving any hidden dangers. No wonder she said she wanted to catch this big fish with her own hands.

If you think about it carefully, it makes sense. How could a ruthless person who practices the "Tai Shang Forgetting Love Sutra" be so eager to avenge his senior brother? Moreover, this is not considered revenge, because Qi Jianyuan did indeed die in the training of a female teacher. In his hands, the person who killed the female instructor actually helped Qi Jianyuan take revenge.

Qi Xuansu couldn't help but re-examine Yao Pei.

Although Zhang Yuelu has the philosophy and determination to change the Taoist sect, he has to admit that Zhang Yuelu is not very close to a good person in the traditional sense. She is fierce and thoughtful, and is even suspected of being domineering. She is also inhumane and is looked down upon by others. Not easy to get along with.

There is also Li Changge, who turns his hands into clouds and turns into rain. He is called the "little ancestor" by everyone in the Li family, not just because of his seniority.

Yao Peineng is as famous as Zhang Yuelu and Li Changge. As the third generation leader who was carefully cultivated by the two generations of Quanzhen Tao leaders and represents the Yao and Pei families, how can she be an innocent woman who looks indifferent but is actually cold? Ruthless, Zhang Yuelu is like a thunder, she is like the Sunda wind, one yang and one yin.

Yao Pei felt Qi Xuansu's scrutinizing gaze and turned his gaze: "You seem surprised?"

Qi Xuansu calmed down: "The Pei family..."

"Whether it's the laws of the Taoist sect, the rules of the Quanzhen Tao, or the family laws of the Pei family, he deserves to die. Qi Tianyuan, you are a veteran, can't you keep your eyes open to this matter?" Yao Pei said coldly.

Qi Xuansu said: "Of course I have nothing to dislike. It's just that I don't have family, so I probably can't understand what it's like to execute one's own family members."

Yao Pei said calmly: "Don't worry, there will be some in the future. Whether it's from the Zhang family or the Yao family."

Qi Xuansu remained silent.

Yao Pei took a deep look at him and said, "What do you think this is? A child playing house? This is a life-and-death struggle. Morals and rules are all matters on the surface. In private, there is only the light of the sword. There is a well-known saying, face and lizi. A family, a clan, a sect, a sect, and even a country are all divided into face and lizi. Things have to be dealt with by the inside. If you can't deal with it, it leaks to your face, and your face is ruined. That's a big thing on the scale. After four taels of goose feathers that were originally not worth mentioning are put on the scale, they become a powerful force. It can crush people to death and turn them into flesh and bones.”

Qi Xuansu whispered: "The face of Quanzhen Tao."

Yao Pei stopped looking at him, looked into the vast night, and said: "As the saying goes, a family that has been in the world for hundreds of years is nothing more than accumulating virtue; the best thing in the world is to study."

"I have to admit that Zhang Qingxiao is an ideal person and a capable person, but she cannot forget one thing. We are not where we are today, not all by ourselves." Yao Pei said a lot for the first time, "Tianyuan, although you I met you at the Wanxiang Taoist Palace, but I have known you for a long time. It can be said that I have watched you step by step to where you are today. How many people are jealous of your current position? You and I have been swept away by the general trend? Progress is what makes us what we are today. If we leave the trend or deviate from it, we will be nothing.”

Qi Xuansu asked: "What do you mean by this?"

"Tianyuan, you and I are both in the middle of the situation now, and we can't help it at all. Although we are studying in the upper palace of Wanxiang Dao Palace, we are not students who study. We cannot talk about morality unrealistically like those students in the ivory tower. High-profile, we must be like the yin and yang Pisces of Taoism, with one foot on the yang side and one foot on the yin side. There is yang in yin, and there is yin in yang. We must hold high the conventional moral laws with one hand, and practice unruliness with the other. A bloody butcher knife, so when necessary, put away your big, round heart of sympathy." Yao Pei's tone was calm, but he could not hide the coldness in it.

Qi Xuansu did not refute. He was not a sympathetic person either. He instead said, "Since you want to deal with all the members of the Ziguang Society in the Wanxiang Dao Palace, what should we do next?"

"Hu Jiaode can't run away. The flying knife I inserted into him is not just a flying knife. It can turn into my eyes when necessary." Yao Pei said the reason why she did not pursue Hu Jiaode. "I would like to see where you can escape to, or what other arrangements Ziguang Society has in the Wanxiang Dao Palace."

Qi Xuansu asked: "What if he pulls out the flying knife?"

"Throwing knives are not easy to pull out." Yao Pei said calmly, "Pull out the radish and bring out the mud. If he wants to pull out my throwing knives, he must be prepared to cut the flesh first."

After saying that, Yao Pei flicked his finger, and a fragment that looked like a blade appeared in front of the two of them. It reflected the profile of Hu Jiaode. This seemed to be the flying knife inserted into Hu Jiaode's shoulder.

Yao Pei flicked his fingers again, and another piece of the same fragment appeared, which corresponded to the flying knife inserted in Hu Jiaode's back.

With such a snap of his fingers, except for the flying knife that was blocked by Hu Jiaode, the corresponding angles of all the flying knives appeared in front of Yao Pei. Although Hu Jiaode was moving at high speed and the scene changed extremely quickly, Yao Pei could still see it with his "heaven calculation".

From the very beginning, Yao Pei had no intention of killing Hu Jiaode. She wanted to catch them all, so she deliberately scared Hu Jiaode away. If Hu Jiaode took this opportunity to look for his companions, it would play into her plan.

This should have been Qi Jianyuan's responsibility, but now she had to clean up the mess.
