Chapter 140

When Zhao Mi walked out of the quiet room, he just let out a long sigh of relief, performing spells for several days, still made him feel very tired.

"Deacon Zhao? You finally came out!" He Dangguan stepped forward and asked, "How is Miss Jiang's injury?"

"The injury needs to be recuperated slowly." Zhao Mi pinched her brows and said, "Fortunately, she used Shenke Xianguo to protect her vitality, so that the evil spirits could not continue to invade the meridians and viscera."

After the battle by the Cangshui River, Zhao Shu and others rushed back to Quartz City to settle down Jiang Ru, who was seriously injured and still awake.

"I have expelled Jiang Ru's ghost fire and evil spirits from her body, but these ghost ways not only hurt her body, but also her soul, which made her unconscious." Zhao Mi took the cloth towel from the servant, Wiping his face, he continued:

"I lit a burner of incense in the quiet room to help Jiang Ru stabilize her soul. As for how long it will take to wake up, it depends on whether she has practiced diligently in the past. This kind of soul injury, after all, is limited by external forces, and she has to rely on herself Take it easy."

"Deacon Zhao, you have worked hard." He Dangguan said.

Zhao Mi waved his hand: "I can't say it's hard work... Did you tell General Wei about the murder of the evildoers?"

"I have already sent someone to pass on the message. General Wei said that he will write a letter to ask for credit for Deacon Zhao." He Dang nodded and said: "In addition, the scouts who were in charge of searching the battlefield also came to report, saying that they did not find any traces of evil spirits. I didn't find anything like a demon pill or a demon bone."

"That's it." Zhao Mi sighed, "There's no need to ask for credit. It's a waste of money. I'll go back and talk to General Wei."

Seeing He Dangguan's strange expression, Zhao Mi asked, "What's the matter?"

"Deacon Zhao, I'm not saying this out of selfishness, but I still have to say it." He Dangguan said cautiously: "This time to kill the evil spirits, although Liang Guoshi finally took the initiative, you took the risk yourself and lured the evil spirits to show up. Great credit. You don’t take the credit yourself, but what do the people who work and help you think? No one else mentions it, but Miss Jiang takes the credit, so don’t you show it?”

Zhao Mi was slightly taken aback, and tapped his forehead with his fingers: "Yes, yes, you are right, I did not think about it."

Zhao Mi blamed himself for Jiang Ru's serious injury, so much so that he felt that his contribution was not worth mentioning.But after being reminded by He Dangguan, Zhao Mi remembered that in order to kill the evil spirits this time, hundreds of soldiers under his command escorted him all the way, and the monks of the Jiangzhen Pavilion were busy setting up the mandala. They also worked hard and sweated.

Even if they don't have the feat of facing evil alone like Zhao Mi, and they don't have the power of Liang Tao and other immortals to kill evil, but Zhao Mi should not ignore their assistance anyway, and can't just satisfy his own preferences.

"As for Jiang Ru..." Zhao Mi sighed again: "She has been injured many times, and I'm afraid she will delay her cultivation. If it's not possible, after she wakes up, give her another Shenke fairy fruit as well."

Zhao Mi was upset.At the beginning, the eldest son Liang Shuo died in Xingluo County, and Jiang Ru, who signed the immortal contract with him, was involved and injured.This time, he was sent by himself to lure the evil spirits, and he was hit hard again.It is impossible to say that Zhao Mi has no guilt.

"Marquis Zhenming, Lu Wangji asks to see you."

Zhao Mi was still worrying there, when he heard Lu Wangji coming from afar, he knew she had left the customs, so he went to visit her.

"I kept fellow daoist waiting for a long time." Zhao Mi saw Lu Wangji standing in the courtyard, holding the piano and admiring the moon.She cleverly deciphered the spell outside the quiet room, and did not open the door with the sound of the piano as before.

"The fierce aura lingers on Zhenminghou's body, it seems that he has just been slaughtered." Lu Wangji turned around, and a face with ugly scars could be seen vaguely between the gaps in the veiled hat.

"It's a narrow escape." Zhao Mi smiled wryly, and invited Lu Wangji to take a walk by the lake, and talked about killing evils by the way.

"Marquis Zhenming is courageous and resourceful." Lu Wangji said after listening.

Zhao Mi glanced at the other party: "Fellow Daoist doesn't seem to be able to compliment other people's temperament."

"This statement is sincere and not a compliment." Lu Wangji said in a serious tone: "Marquis Zhenming's advice, Lu Wangji will remember it in his heart."

"Fellow Daoist, as long as you don't continue to follow Yi'an Chu Sect against us." Zhao Mi laughed.

"Marquis Zhenming was joking." Lu Wangji said frankly, "I live under the family of the Chu family to worship the guest, not a servant, and have never been involved in their family affairs. In the past, if there were demons and gangsters who assassinated and assassinated me, I would do it myself." Stop Chu Mengchun. Now that he has violated the court's law, I will not go against the trend and force it."

Zhao Mi nodded secretly, this is how a cultivator should behave.Even if it is an offering to guard the house, it will not interfere with the cultivation base and mana, so that the immortals can get along well.

"Could it be that many demons and rebels tried to assassinate Chu Mengchun in the past?" Zhao Mi asked.

"Qingyan County is also a border county, and occasionally there will be demons and spies from Jiuli Kingdom." Lu Wangji said, "As for Chiyun's rebellious party, they move around from time to time, occasionally spying on the government office and Bihu Manor."

Zhao Mi was curious for a while: "I don't know how netizens think about this Chiyun...chaotic party?"

Lu Wangji was silent for a moment: "I have fought against the monks of the rebellious party, and found that they are not vicious and brutal, nor have they ever looted the villagers. Judging from their use of spells, words and deeds, I think most of them are simple and simple. A vigorous man is a man of upright heart."

Zhao Mi knew that Lu Wangji had no intention of cheating, this kind of speech was praised by Chi Yundu, if others listened to it, they might beat Lu Wangji into a traitor of the rebellious party.

And Lu Wangji is good at qin music, and has a good insight into human nature. Her words made Zhao Mi feel even more helpless.

"Marquis Zhenming seems to have compassion for Chi Yun?" Lu Wangji saw through it at a glance.

"Pity? I'm afraid I don't need to show mercy." Zhao Mi closed his voice secretly: "I participated in the suppression of bandits in Xingluo County and dealt with the people in Chiyundu. Maybe I didn't fully agree with their actions. , but they don't need my approval either.

When I was inspecting the countryside, I learned that Chi Yundu and the local villagers were attacking temples and killing evil together.They did not rely on the prestige of their techniques to punish them blindly, but they had made many achievements in changing customs and setting up teachings to benefit them.Such a character, my pity, will make them feel that I am contemptible and ridiculous. "

"Why did Marquis Zhenming say that?" Lu Wangji was puzzled.

"In Xinglong County, I resolutely punished the evil and destroyed the temple. In fact, I had the intention of competing for victory and showing off my skills." Zhao Mi expressed his thoughts: "I think there are some things that not only Chi Yun can do, but I can also do it." can do it!"

Lu Wangji sighed, "The Marquis of Zhenming has the heart to save the people, and there are many others like Chu Mengchun."

Zhao Mi couldn't laugh. In fact, sometimes he felt that he, the Marquis of Zhenming, might not be able to do things so smoothly.That is to say, in the face of evil spirits and ghosts, the status of a monk can make him a little more convenient.

"Marquis Zhenming, I just heard you say that Miss Jiang Ru was injured and passed out?" Lu Wangji asked.

"It's true." Zhao Mi said.

"Ms. Jiang Ru's mind is dull and unclear, maybe I can play a piece on the piano to tune her soul and revive her spirit." Lu Wangji said.

Zhao Mi remained silent, and secretly asked Lingxiao: "Is this method feasible?"

"Tuning the qin and playing the strings can smooth the five qi and smooth thinking. Jiang Ru's physical vitality still exists, which is just suitable for using the perception of the five sense organs as a guide to take the soul back to its place." Ling Xiao said: "You have understood this truth, otherwise Why do you concoct Jiang Ru's soul-returning incense regardless of the cost?"

Zhao Mi was speechless for a moment, Ling Xiao said, "Your mind is confused."

"Then I'll be a fellow Taoist." Zhao Mi didn't respond to Lingxiao, but bowed to Lu Wangji.

"Marquis Zhenming doesn't need to be like this." Lu Wangji said: "If you have any difficult issues in the future, you may as well speak up with me. But I will help you if I can."

……

Arranged for Lu Wangji to play the piano for Jiang Ru, and ordered the rest of the idlers not to approach, Zhao Shu stayed outside the quiet room alone, silent.

"Your cultivation base has improved."

Zhang Duanjing's voice came from the side, and Zhao Mi saw the teacher appearing quietly, so he hurriedly asked, "Teacher, when did you come?"

"Just arrived." Zhang Duanjing glanced at the quiet room: "Is that Jiang Ru injured?"

"Yes, she was injured by Ren Wangchao, and she is still unconscious." Zhao Mi replied, "I asked a member of the Fengminggu sect to play the qin and perform spells on her to heal her."

"Fengming Valley, this sect has also fallen and dispersed." Zhang Duanjing looked at Zhao Mi: "Did Liang Tao ask you to be the bait in the battle of Cangshui to kill evil?"

Zhao Mi had no choice but to nod and said, "Yes, he came to the door in person, as if he wanted to ask questions. Because I took down the sheriff who came from the Chu family in Yi'an, and the Wukui army also confiscated the wealth and property of many Chongxuanguan children."

"What do you think?" Zhang Duanjing asked.

Zhao Mi didn't understand: "I don't understand."

"Do you think Liang Tao is trying to test you?" Zhang Duanjing said: "He followed all the way secretly, and the magic weapon formation was prepared long ago, but he didn't make it for a long time. What do you think he intends?"

Zhao Mi groaned silently, now Liang Tao should think that there is another expert from the Immortal Family behind Zhao Mi, maybe he really wants to take this opportunity to test out this "Elder Master from the Immortal Family" to see if he will help Zhao at a critical moment. millet.

So at the bank of the Cangshui River, Zhao Mi was alone against the group of evil spirits, and Liang Tao did not show up for a long time. It is revealed that it is estimated that he will continue to procrastinate.

But Zhang Duanjing's words also have other meanings. One is to prove that he was watching nearby at that time and did not immediately rescue Zhao Mi; the other is that Zhang Duanjing also suspects that there is someone from the immortal family behind Zhao Mi, otherwise he would not act in the same way as Liang Tao .

"Sure enough, it's exactly what you said." Zhao Mi secretly said to Lingxiao: "Teacher, he actually noticed something, but he didn't point it out in person."

"He is your teacher who taught you, and he probably knows more about you than yourself." Ling Xiao sensed Zhao Mi's mood: "What? You don't like it?"

"I just feel that I and the teacher... are separated." Zhao Mi was indeed a little unhappy.

"Are you blaming Zhang Duanjing for not showing up early to save you?" Lingxiao asked.

"It's not to blame..."

"That's it." Lingxiao interrupted: "You have to understand, not to mention being a mentor, even if you are a biological parent, there is no reason to take care of your descendants forever. You used to be afraid of difficulties and fears, precisely because of Zhang Duanjingyi The guardian is living too comfortably, without the slightest thought of making decisions for himself."

Zhao Mi accepted the lesson obediently, and Ling Xiao continued: "The reason why a person who cultivates immortals has to be ignorant is to make decisions for himself wholeheartedly. I also tell you clearly that this road is extremely steep and difficult. Ordinary people are their own masters, and they have to worry about daily necessities, let alone the road to immortality and ascension? If you have the slightest thought of relying on dependence, it will definitely be impossible!"

"Why don't you talk?" Zhang Duanjing interrupted Zhao Mi's meditation.

"I think Liang Guoshi mainly wants to see how effective my rituals and rituals can be." Zhao Mi directly changed the subject: "Teacher, don't you think it's strange? It's clear that the Wukui army is attacking the children of the Chongxuan Pavilion this time. Those ghosts and spirits are even the prostitutes raised by the Chongxuan Pavilion. According to common sense, Liang Guoshi should keep them? How could he take the initiative to punish them?"

Zhang Duanjing shook his head and said, "These ghost worshipers are a big taboo. If they are scattered and disorderly, you can't hide them, and you won't be able to hunt them down for a while, but you will be busy for the upcoming war after all. The evil spirits avoid the limelight, and you can slowly figure them out in the future.

But Renwangchao's gathering of demons and spirits, no matter what kind of motives they have, is arrogance. Even if he has been approved by the Chongxuan Hall, Liang Tao will definitely not tolerate it!What's more, what Liang Tao is about to do, how can he allow a master of ghosts and gods other than him? "

Zhao Mi suddenly realized that he was right. One of the prerequisites for the Dao Kingdom on Earth is to impeach ghosts, spirits, and mountains and rivers, and turn them into immortal officials of the Dao Kingdom. They must be under Liang Tao’s complete control. .Now that Ren Wangchao is making his own decisions, in Liang Tao's view, it is tantamount to seeking his own death.

But Zhao Mi thought about it again, even without Liang Tao and the Chongxuan Pavilion, wouldn't Renwangchao gather a large number of evil spirits and ghosts, vaguely a great threat to the mortal world?This group of promiscuous ghosts and gods who are not strongly restrained by the Kewen ghost law have no scruples about harming the common people.

With such a confrontation between the two, Liang Tao, as Hua Xu's national teacher, could do nothing if he didn't make a move.

"The First World War wiped out ghosts and gods in several counties in the south, but most of the evil spirits who had the intention to cause trouble and cause misfortune were buried by the Cangshui River." Zhang Duanjing said: "Although there must be ghosts and ghosts in the mountains and forests, this battle is enough. Establish a prestige and deter other people with evil intentions. Even if they are evil spirits from other countries, they have to think about it when they find out about this."

Zhao Mi really didn't expect this level. It seems that his cooperating with Liang Tao at the risk of his own life has indeed won many good opportunities for Huaxu Kingdom.Considering that these promiscuous ghosts and gods have been wiped out, together with the arrest and imprisonment of the sons and daughters of the Chongxuan Pavilion, I think the burden on the local people can be slightly relieved, and I can concentrate on future wars.

"If you have nothing to do, I will leave." Zhang Duanjing said.

"Master, don't you want to stay for a while?" Zhao Mi asked hastily.

"I still have something to do." Zhang Duanjing said: "You handled it well at the Cangshui River before, but you don't need me to take care of you everywhere in the future, and you have to get used to facing difficulties and obstacles by yourself."

What the teacher said was somewhat similar to Ling Xiao, Zhao Mi was very grateful, and all the strangeness dissipated, and he knelt down and kowtowed to Zhang Duanjing.

There was a slight breeze, and when Zhao Mi raised his head, Zhang Duanjing had disappeared.
