Tai sui

"Good guy," Xi Ping was dumbfounded, "These two friends with strange skeletons came all the way from southern Xinjiang to Jinping, just to inform Xianshan! Master, is this our secret work?"

Zhi Xiu glanced at him: "I think it can be."

This shit stirrer is also idle when it's idle, and it's all delivered to the door, so maybe he can really get something out of it.

Xi Yue silently boiled the snow water collected in the earthen pot to make tea. Seeing that the master and apprentice had just finished persecuting Beipo, and then gathered together to persecute Xie Chong, she felt that Feiqiong Peak was really cold.

Zhi Xiu dipped in water and wrote a few keywords on the table, such as "Mine Station Office", "Lingshi Escort", "Southern Mine Lingshi Stolen", and then tapped lightly with his index finger, and the water droplets on the table rolled by themselves , A string of small characters quickly gathered and scattered.

The immortals are in the deep mountains of Xuanyin, but their roots are all in the world. Only General Zhi is alone. He is a rare pure person among the 36 peaks. He has not cared about world affairs for a long time.If it weren't for Xingchenhai, it might not be possible to dig him out of the ice hole.He really didn't know the current situation of the Mining Office, so he had to do some calculations temporarily.

This calculation shows the trickiness: the South Mine transports the spirit stones to the north four times a year, each time accompanied by an escort comparable to the navy.The escort ship is covered with inscriptions and loaded with fairy artifacts.

When the fleet passed by, they would set off a "dirty water dragon" to clear the road an hour in advance, warning passers-by to stay away. Folk monks, let alone robbing the spirit stone, risked being accidentally injured by the inscription if they approached.

Although the local specialty of the Land of Chaos is the outlaws, it is not the idea that no one has tried to rob the spirit stones these years, but the strength is very different.Escorts occasionally suffered casualties, but none of the spirit stones were lost.

Until the last few years... that is, after Liang Chen left office.

A new generation of stewards stationed in the mine escorted the road to Lingshi and began to have frequent accidents—there were always thieves taking advantage of the lax defense, stealing a small boat and running away without much loss.Usually when this kind of thing happens, in order to avoid the trick of diverting the tiger away from the mountain, the fleet will strengthen its defenses and will not blindly chase them, so most of the stolen spirit stones will not be found back.

While directing Ah Xiang to deal with Xie Chong, Xi Ping said with one heart and two minds: "If it's not that the new stewards are special waste, it is that the old Xie Chong put his disciples into the mine office before he left. Once he left, he lost his responsibility. , and began to remotely control his subordinates to steal chickens and dogs, and get the Lingshi from the South Mine to raise believers...Master, where are Senior Brother Pang and the others?"

Pang Jian had followed the path pointed out by General Zhi and chased him to the canal.

The New Year's Eve is approaching, and it is the fastest time to ship goods in Jinping City. The large and small cargo ships parked on the wharf are like dumplings, and they are discharged for several miles early in the morning.

Pang Jian tried to put his consciousness out in a circle, but as expected, he found nothing - General Zhi's note was vague, which meant that even he couldn't figure out the exact location, and the other party must have something in his hand that could block the inspiration of the Ascension Master .

"Dutong, how can we search for so many boats?" a blue-clothed man asked, "The secret order of the inner sect told us to find a little girl who was kidnapped by evil spirits? What's so special about this little girl? The one who kidnapped her How many evil spirits are there?"

Pang Jian was also puzzled.

Wei Chengxiang had the impression that he was once targeted by Liang Chen because of a spiritual match, and was tricked into being in the evil spirit.But this girl had a lot of life, and she got away in time, and she didn't become evil, nor did she become nourishment for evil.Since the perpetrators were all dead and turned into scum, and all the evil spirits around Jinping had already subdued, Pang Jian didn't intend to embarrass a mortal.Only one causal beast was left staring at her for a while.Apart from doing hard work every day, Wei Chengxiang puts on sloppy men's clothing and goes to Mouse Alley to help, clean up the kitchen for those lazy women, do some carpentry, etc. Every time an old prostitute named Chunying sees her, he will yell at her viciously She didn't care if she came out, she would go the next day.

All in all, she is a little girl who can endure hardships and has good conduct.Pang Jian let the Karma Beast withdraw and didn't bother her anymore.

It's been more than half a year, why did General Zhi still put eyeliner on her?Could it be that the general expected that there would be evil remnants looking for this little girl?

The Master of Shengling Peak on Cloud Nine is indeed unpredictable!

"Secret orders from the inner sect, don't talk too much," Pang Jian waved his hand, "Wait, I'll scare the snake out."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of dragon scale from his bosom and flicked it into the canal.

There was only a sound of "wow", and the calm canal wharf became turbulent for no reason. The scales entered the water and turned into water dragons, swimming under the cargo ships.The water level of the Grand Canal soared, and all the cargo ships were gently lifted by the water waves, and then lowered quickly.

A dragon's chant came out from under the water, knocking on every cabin and cargo compartment hidden under the water.

"Cleaning up the water dragon," through the Reincarnation Wood, Xi Ping heard the "Old Ni" say in a deep voice, "The blue dog from Tianji Pavilion is searching this water area!"

"Impossible, how did they know?" Bailian asked in astonishment, "Under the inscription 'Forbidden Peeping', let alone Pang Jian, even if Foundation Establishment comes, we will definitely not be able to find our trace!"

"There is Xuanyin Mountain behind the Tianji Pavilion. What do you know about the background of Xuanyin Mountain? I told you that the rumors have become tight recently." A Xiang combined the words Xi Ping taught her and the ability to bargain in the vegetable market for many years, and said in one breath, " You can't even guard against the tracking of the Tianji Pavilion, and you still want to go to the Jieling Mine? It's funny, I will ask you, who has succeeded in these years? If you have the ability, do it yourself, what [-], success It’s all yours, and we don’t want a cent! This old man, the key to getting the spirit stone is up to us, not you. Even if we are short of manpower, there are people who are willing to cooperate. You must us, no We have to you, if you want me to say, five to five points is even less!"

"Old Ni" said word by word: "We are indeed no better than others, and we don't have any backing for foundation building and spiritual ascension, but we are people with a heart. Look up at the dust-free pilgrimage road, wine and meat hair The smelly gate of the mansion! We seek spiritual stones and work hard to cultivate them, in order to smash the stone statues of gods and the golden bodies of nobles on the heads of the common people, and fight for the sky for the people crawling in the mud! What are those rats? Don’t you keep saying 'I would rather die than Shuangtou against my will'?"

Xi Ping immediately grasped the important point: the place of chaos is well-deserved, and it is chaotic enough.Someone from Liang really hooked up with more than one group of evil spirits... And what do you mean by "they don't have a foundation to ascend to a mountain as a backer", does that mean that someone else has?Who are you referring to?Could it be that the Heavenly Secret Pavilion doesn't know about the rising spirit building foundation running all over the street in the evil cultivator right now?

Ah Xiang suddenly ran out of words, "Give a piece of sky to the people crawling in the mud" hit her heart seriously, and threw a cloud of dust on her young but frost-ridden chest.

At this moment, the dragon roar sounded again, getting closer!

Xi Ping's heart skipped a beat. He just asked Zhi Xiu what the "Water Dragon for Eliminating Dirt" was. The master said it was a kind of magic tool that opened the way. The water dragon passed by and could stir up tides in the sea.

Then the movement should be even greater in the canal. Why do they seem to be shaking so lightly here?

Are they not in the water?

No, if it is not in the water, it should not shake at all.

That's right, the thing that the white face used to illuminate it was a night pearl... Xi Ping didn't notice it at first, but now he came to his senses. Aren't these evil spirits trying to save money and save spirit stones? Is it necessary to be so ostentatious? ?

He quickly asked Ah Xiang: "The scent you mentioned, does it smell like overripe lychees and a little bit of raspberry medicine?"

Ah Xiang still hadn't come to his senses: "...What does litchi taste like?"

Xi Ping was speechless for a moment, and described in a desperate manner: "It's just... so sweet that it makes you sick, but when you smell it carefully, there is a slightly sour and slightly bitter medicinal smell in it."

Ah Xiang quietly took a deep breath as he said, and tasted it: "It seems to have a smell of medicine."

Xi Ping immediately raised his head and said to Zhi Xiu: "Master, I think they should be on a ship transporting snow wine. There seems to be a 'immobile cabin' on their ship."

Snow wine is ridiculously expensive, comparable to gold liquid, but also extremely delicate.Fire, smoke, strong light, violent bumps... It is said that all good snow wine will go bad.In Dawan, only snow wine from the South Mine is allowed to be sold. The waterway is long, and to prevent bumps and damage on the road, a special downgrading device is often installed in the cargo ship, called "immobile cabin" - a bit like mustard seeds, but not like The real mustard can fold time and space, but it is just a cargo hold that can be suspended in the hull. No matter how the hull folds and rolls, the immovable cabin inside is almost unaffected.

Zhi Xiu frowned, rarely serious: "Have you ever drank snow wine?"

"Ah, I've drank it once, and it's tasteless. It's like tea powder soaked in water three or four times. It's expensive. Afterwards, they call me again and I don't bother to go." Xi Ping said, "Master, what's wrong?"

"Since it doesn't taste good, don't touch it again." Zhi Xiu didn't elaborate, but said, "It's Lingshi Miasma, which damages the heart of Taoism and is harmful to practice."

He didn't even save the note this time, and just snapped his fingers.

Pang Jian's eyes flickered, and the freezing rain in the air quickly condensed the word "Snow Brew", which flashed in front of his eyes, and then collapsed into shards of ice and fell to the ground again.

Pang Jian's eyes were like lightning, and in an instant, he passed through countless hulls, and precisely locked on the precious immortal artifact.

At the same time, Ah Xiang heard Xi Ping say: "The people from Tianji Pavilion have arrived, you should pretend to be afraid, don't act as if you called them!"

It was too late to say it, and the moment Pang Jian locked the immovable cabin, the inspirations of the two evil spirits were touched at the same time.The old mud was like a basin of sewage, "splashed" on the ground on the spot, and disappeared into the floor in a blink of an eye.Bailian returned his hand and grabbed the void - it turned out that the hatch of the "immovable cabin" was behind him!

Seeing the opportunity, Ah Xiang quickly put the Reincarnation Wood away. She knelt down on the spot with her head in her arms, and shouted, "Help! There are monsters!"

Seeing that the white-faced man was about to get out through the gap between the ship's hull and the descending fairy weapon, the next moment, he bumped into Pang Jian who came in through the wall!

Bailian froze suddenly - he had a spell gun on his chin.

"Hey, what a good day," Pang Jian said with a smile, "Someone threw himself into his arms early in the morning?"

Immediately, deceptive ripples appeared in Bailian's strange eyes, and it was too late for Pang Jian to dodge his gaze.

Ah Xiang next to him had been captured once, and seeing that the blue-clothed man had also been hit, he was hesitating whether to jump up and shout, when Pang Jian asked suspiciously: "That's it? Are there any other tricks? "

white face:"……"

Ah Xiang squatted back silently.

"Where is the evil spirit who has never seen the world?" Pang Jian pulled the trigger expressionlessly, "He still dares to come to Jinping to make trouble before his hair is ready."

The rune was directly plated on that white face, and then spread to the whole body, that white-faced man seemed to be a big white moth wrapped in a spider web.

At the same time, several blue clothes teamed up to pull a large net full of spells out of the water, like fishing for fish, and pulled out the old mud that had turned into a human form.

Pang Jian backhanded the rune into his back, stretched out his hand and pulled the "big white moth": "Take it back to the prison and search the ship!"

Before he could finish his sentence, a note from General Zhi almost hit him on the face: "Be careful with the inscription."

Pang Jian was startled, and saw a strange smile on the white-faced man's face, and something bright flashed on his chest.Pang Jian didn't have time to think about it, and suddenly swung him: "Get out of the way!"

That white-faced man was tall and burly, and he swung it into the sky with one hand like he was throwing a small stone.At the same time, Pang Jian took out an umbrella, and the umbrella expanded infinitely in his palm, covering almost all the boats and people in the Grand Canal.

The people covered by the big umbrella only felt the top of their heads go dark, and before they could see what was flying up, they heard a loud noise.

The sharp second-class inscription blasted Bailian into pieces!

The ribs of the giant umbrella snapped off, and the torn umbrella surface fell limply. The canal water set off waves that were more violent than when the water dragon passed by just now, and there was a bloody rain in the sky.

The "Old Ni" on the Internet couldn't find where his mouth was, and he laughed out of breath: "Ancient rock drillers, a shop that claims to be productive...although it is covered... Not as good as...not as good as...your family..." (Note)

His laughter stopped abruptly and turned into a pool of stiff lime.

A pair of protruding eyes were facing Ah Xiang's direction, and the fuzzy facial features on his face were like those made by a child. Ah Xiang's heart seemed to be caught by something, and he subconsciously grasped the reincarnation wooden sign in his arms.

Then with a "poof", the "old mud" that had become real mud cracked, turned into a handful of stone powder, and fell into the canal water where the waves still sounded.

Xi Ping suddenly broke free from the picture between his eyebrows, and opened his eyes wide: "Master..."

Zhi Xiu didn't need to look, he could guess what was going on there: "Are you dead?"

Xi Ping just thought it was fun just now, like playing cards with someone he didn't know in a casino, and he regarded the two crooked melons on the opposite side as game opponents.At the end of the game, he was about to shake off his arrogance and say a few proud words, but the other party suddenly performed a performance of breaking his body to pieces for him.

He was left alone on the winning card table, his eyes were covered with blood and flesh, and he was stunned.

Zhi Xiu said slowly: "I use heavy codes against evil spirits. Once I catch them, I will go to prison to search for their souls. Searching for souls and scratching bones will take three points. If they don't die, they must be stupid, so they will kill themselves if they have the chance. The fairy artifacts of Tianji Pavilion these years It has been changed one crop after another, but it still can't catch up with their various means of seeking death, there is no way."

Xi Ping was momentarily at a loss.

The villains in the storybook are always described as wretched and full of five poisons.Anyone who screams and laughs before going to the execution ground must be a hero.When he was young, he and his grandmother listened to operas, arguing that they thought it was the same, and the old grandmother said: "It's not that Mr. Ben doesn't come up with new ideas. You think, since the evildoer is doing it for self-interest, he must first weigh the pros and cons when he does it. The account is too much. Isn’t it just a villain? To die for loyalty, there is a heroic spirit in the bones, even if a person becomes mud, the spirit will be released. The body has its own male, female, old, young, tall, short, beautiful and ugly, but its temperament is different. They look the same, and you'll feel familiar when you're gone."

"Master," he said awkwardly, "they died generously, and I feel like a bad person."

Master Feiqiong Peak looked at him with eyes that had penetrated two hundred years, and suddenly felt that it might not be a good thing to keep him in Feiqiong Peak. what?Isn't that just a joke.

He then said in a gentle voice: "There are very few people who do evil in the world, and those who die for righteousness may not necessarily do good deeds."

Xi Ping: "..."

How come "there are few evildoers" for a while, and "do not do good things" for a while?The master is so polite, it's like giving a "Detailed Explanation of the Meridians", without speaking human words.

Zhi Xiu didn't say any more, just instructed: "Call your little girl for a while, tell Tianji Pavilion about the evil party in the mine office, and don't let her let you out."

"Oh," Xi Ping responded, thought for a while, and then said, "Master, can you ask Senior Brother Pang to give that girl a different identity? There is an evil spirit following her, and there may be others. It will be nice to keep looking for her in the future." What should I do? That girl is in trouble, it would be great if she can bypass the Qingxin Jue and let her make Beipo fall into an avalanche."

Zhixiu: "..."

This shameless thing said who caused the avalanche on the North Slope?

"Oh, by the way, the evil spirit said just now that the remnant of the Tai Sui was following the 'Zhao'." Xi Ping thought of something again, "Who is the surname Zhao in the Mine Office? Is this a clue?"

Zhi Xiu counted with his fingers: "Mine Office, the surname is Zhao...it should be Zhao Zhenwei."

Xi Ping: "Zhao Yuzun in the capital... a relative of Brother Zhao Yu?"

"Not counting. There are too many people with the surname Zhao. He should be a branch of the Zhao family in Ning'an, your senior brother from the previous class. This person..."

Zhi Xiu didn't know what was going on, he frowned, he stopped, and didn't continue talking.General Zhi is a gentleman, and he doesn't talk about people's merits behind his back. If he stops suddenly, it must be a bad thing to say later.

Xi Ping was taken aback.

The last senior, that is, ten years ago, Ning'an Zhao...

"A side branch of the Zhao family in Ning'an wanted to get their descendants in, and wanted to get some immortal envoys, so they thought about what to send to stand out... So they took a fancy to the Chen family's green mine field."

Whoops, another windfall.

"Master," Xi Ping licked one of his canine teeth, turned his heart out, and said, "There may be more than one remnant of Tai Sui in the mine office. I want to steal spirit stones through them, I feel worried when I hear it..."

Zhi Xiu: "If you have something to say, what's the matter with you?"

"Yes," Xi Ping pointed to himself, "I am Tai Sui!"
