Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 1054 Snake demon: Everyone says that monsters are stupid, but I am a shrewd one!
"receive!"

Streams of black mist flowed into the sea like mud, and all of them fell into the scrolls in Li Yan's hands. The Fudi spiritual area of ​​Lingyin Temple returned to its original appearance, except for a large number of ninja corpses lying on the ground.

Seeing this, Tao Yin stepped forward like a conditioned reflex, and began to skillfully cut off the head.

Chi Lian was holding his fangs and licking his tongue back and forth, but when he saw it, he asked in surprise, "Son, what are you doing?"

Tao Yin said: "One head is 200 taels of silver."

As soon as the voice fell, the old lady appeared beside her in an instant, and began to cut.

Li Yan ignored it, focused on checking the situation of the Hundred Ghosts at Night, and asked, "Xiaoqian, how do you feel?"

Xiaoqian floated around the picture scroll, a little scared, and felt pitiful: "These ghosts have been trapped for too long, even ordinary ghosts have been forced to become fierce ghosts, with too much resentment, how about I go in Help with grooming?"

"I can't do it now, I'll try another time after I've thoroughly refined that page of scriptures."

Li Yan shook his head, his eyes solemn: "This is just the beginning, there is more than one volume of Hundred Ghosts at Night..."

When he inspired the Nirvana text with Zhan Tan merit Buddha, and when he restored the distorted scriptures to their original appearance, he felt a sense of echo, and his consciousness passed through a distant place.

It was a page of Buddhist scriptures, which were sacrificed into different magic weapons to suppress ghosts.

Not only did it prove that the predestined object is far more than the one in front of me, but it also explained a terrible problem.

In the world...

How many ghosts are there?

"There is a problem in the underworld, and no one in the yang world can save it?"

Li Yan put the picture of the night walk of the ghosts in his sleeve, turned to look at the mother and son with the human head over there, especially Chi Lian: "Your Excellency just said that Buddhist cultivators have disappeared? Although the Buddhist temples are weak in this dynasty, they are not directly disappear?"

Chi Lian put his hands behind his back: "There are so many monks, and Buddhist practitioners can hardly see them. The gates of the big monasteries were closed early, and the slow ones are like this place. Anyone can come, anyway, bald donkeys can't come..."

Li Yan nodded slightly, and asked again: "What's the matter with the water flooding Hangzhou?"

Tao Yin's expression changed, while Chi Lian sneered and said, "The people from the archipelago used spirit bodies to help me flood Hangzhou with water, and drown the army at sea, what else could it be?"

Li Yan looked at her: "Your Excellency's aura is strong, but it is obvious that you have been injured recently, and the injury is still serious. If you want to stir up waves and flood Hangzhou, I am afraid that you will not have the ability."

Tao Yin was stunned, showing worry again, while Chi Lian's vertical pupils narrowed: "Good eyesight!"

Li Yandao: "When you said you were going to flood the coast of Daming in Nanjing, you should have been targeted by the Japanese. In order to use you, you even forged another Tao Yin... You were injured and needed to recover from your injuries, so you used them instead ?”

This time it was Chi Lian who was stunned: "That's right, that's what I think!"

Li Yan was basically sure about the other party's intelligence, and because his way of thinking didn't match, he didn't say much. Before leaving, he said lightly: "You just dealt with some enemies, and you also have a merit. Hiding ten people Enough is enough, don't be too greedy."

Tao Yin looked at his old lady: "Mother..."

Chi Lian looked as usual, and slipped out a row of ninja heads from behind, using his experience as a demon to teach: "When dealing with people, don't trust their rhetoric, just see if there are ready-made benefits. My old lady didn't understand this truth before. , I suffered a big loss, and now I have learned to be smart..."

"Yo, he still has the pill?"

Leaving Lingyin Temple and returning to his small courtyard, Li Yan entered the elixir room and took the elixir for Tao Yin. Chi Lian's eyes became hot when he saw it, and he yelled: "That Taoist doctor, my son has helped you a lot. Come on, give me a few to heal my injuries too!"

Li Yan said to Tao Yin: "Go and heal your wounds, don't worry, if she can't beat me, she won't be able to fight."

"What did you say?"

Chi Lian's eyes widened, while Tao Yin turned his head three times a step at a time.

Li Yan stretched out his hand, and a gourd flew over: "This is the 'Returning Spirit Pill', which can heal any spiritual injuries, but I have a question, your son said that you, the Chilin Clan of Wujue Cave, intersected with the world Not much, no harm to living beings?"

Chi Lian snorted coldly: "Our Wujue Cave is located in the Yinlong Cave outside Suzhou City. If we say that we have no contact with human beings, it is not true. But if you ask about cannibalism, I will tell you the truth. Our ancestors have said for generations, Humans are very unpalatable, they have no spiritual energy at all, if you want to eat, you will eat those Taoist priests who came into my cave for snake gall!"

Li Yan frowned, thinking that the attributes of mortals in this world are only 1 to 5 points, which is similar to that of the Tang Dynasty. At that time, he thought it was unusually low, but now he heard what this snake demon said, and found that it is a blessing in disguise. .

In a world where demons are rampant, if the attributes of mortals are high, but not high enough to compete with demons, then I am afraid that they will be eaten into a kingdom of lions and camels. Even if the center of the court is protected by an expert, the villagers in the countryside cannot protect themselves. They will still be driven away so that they can only gather in large cities.

The current world has not undergone such changes, and it is still in a normal pattern, which means that although the monsters are causing chaos, they have not caused a huge impact on the lives of most people.

Just like many countries on the westbound road, there are monsters making troubles, but they can still survive on the whole. When encountering those monsters who abide by the law, they will spend money to buy things.

It’s just hard to compare with Cathay Pacific’s Ping An Datang...

Seeing Li Yan pondering, Chi Lian thought for a while, why a Taoist doctor who took his son away actually let his son defend him vigorously. After thinking about it, besides his son being cheated, he also found another answer: "You Do you want Tao Zhongwen to die?"

Li Yan looked over again.

Full of confidence, Chi Lian proposed a deal: "You human cultivators, with some abilities, want to become masters... I know Tao Zhongwen's many scandals, so I can exchange them with pills!"

The reason is wrong, but the result is correct. Li Yan is indeed planning to occupy a certain position in the secular world during the process of cultivation. In addition, he does not have a good impression of Tao Zhongwen in history, so he will be prepared.

However, he did not give any pills: "I really don't like this Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Firmament. If this person only acts for the evil way, he is not worthy of being a Heavenly Master. However, the relationship between Tao Zhongwen and Your Excellency is a family matter. Never interfere."

Chi Lian frowned: "It's really troublesome for you to be human. If you want to kill, you have to find some reason! Don't worry, what I want to tell you is not those things. Tao Zhongwen likes divination, and he claims to be able to count the secrets of heaven. The emperor is always doing fortune-telling, and even predicted the fire in the palace, do you know that?"

Li Yan nodded: "I know."

Chi Lian sneered: "Fucking secret, it was my old lady who helped him set the fire that night and burned down Jiajing's palace."

After speaking, he looked over with piercing eyes, expecting the other party's shocked expression.

Li Yan nodded calmly: "If that's the case, it's the way of a demon."

Not to mention this world, even in real history, many people suspected that Tao Zhongwen predicted that the fire in the Jiajing Palace was secretly set on fire.

This is not a complete conjecture. Some Taoist priests artificially created hexagrams to gain fame. There are records, and they dared to lie to the emperor. .

Since ancient times, there have been countless alchemists who have dedicated themselves to deceiving the emperor. After all, the rate of return is too high. In the face of huge temptation, there are always people who take risks, and there is no shortage of Tao Zhongwen.

Seeing that the emperor did not shock the other party by setting fire to him, Chi Lian immediately became anxious: "What about the prince? The prince died of illness, do you know what happened?"

Li Yan's expression finally changed slightly: "Did the prince do it?"

Tao Zhongwen's prophecy, the most effective is actually "the two dragons will not meet", the prince was fine when he did not see Jiajing, but he really died of illness after seeing Jiajing.

However, later generations also analyzed that it was Tao Zhongwen who saw that the prince was not in good health, and deliberately created this sense of tension. When the prince reached the crown, it was a major event in life, and after not seeing his father for a long time, he would collapse after being nervous. He died of illness.

To put it bluntly, it is a kind of gambling with speech skills. If you win the bet, you will go straight to the sky. When you get to the side, lean up.

Li Yan felt strange: "Every school of Taoism should have the ability to pinch and count and predict the secrets of heaven. According to you, Tao Zhongwen relied entirely on deception. How could he be in a high position for many years?"

Chi Lian folded his arms: "You ask me?"

Li Yandao: "Then why didn't you talk about these things before?"

Chi Lian said: "In the past, he used my son to restrain him, but now my son has escaped the control of the gods, so he has no scruples anymore!"

Li Yan nodded slightly, poured five pills, and handed them over.

Chi Lian hurriedly took it, sniffed the elixir, and curled his lips again: "Stingy!"

"What you just said is worth it, if I really want to use you, I will naturally not hesitate to pay you..."

Li Yan's eyes fell on the dagger in her hand, but he did not forget his original intention: "If you are willing to use this treasure to study it for me, you can also get paid for the pill."

Chi Lian withdrew his fangs and was very vigilant: "You want my family's treasure?"

Li Yan flipped his palm, and a picture of the night walk of ghosts appeared: "If you are worried, how about using this thing as a mortgage? In terms of value, it is not inferior to this fang."

Chi Lian widened his eyes: "This is a relic of the Great Demon that our clan has enshrined for generations..."

Li Yan waited for the second half of the sentence.

Sure enough, Chi Lian looked at Danfang, licked his lips, and took the opportunity to make an excessive request: "One more gourd pill... No, three gourd pills!"

……

After half an hour.

Tao Yin, who was recuperating in the hut next to the alchemy room, was a little uneasy after all. He pricked up his ears and listened secretly, and found that no conflict had erupted, so he calmed down a little.

He knew that his mother's temper was actually very bad, but the monster race feared the strong, the unfathomable one who would plunder even the Japanese's treasures at will, under such deterrence, they should be able to live in peace.

It's just that I don't know if my mother's injury is serious, and who hurt her, so I must take revenge!

Just as he was thinking, a familiar aura came, Tao Yin looked happy, and saw the door opening, the old lady twisted her waist and slid in, her face was full of smug expressions: "My son, my son, my old lady occupies the door. Great deal!"

When he arrived in front of his son, Chi Lian couldn't wait to take out the three gourd elixir: "Look how smart I am, how long I've only been here, and I've reaped so many benefits! My son, you have to learn more from me!"

Tao Yin was stunned, he didn't have the nerve to say that the cost of this gourd elixir was only worth a Japanese head, but it was also very strange: "How much did you give?"

That person is not stingy, but he never grants pills at will. So far, Hu Zongxian has obtained the pills alone, and he only increased the supply after the anti-Japanese was very effective. His mother had signs of conflict before, why? Suddenly so generous?

Tao Yin secretly thought something was wrong, and hurriedly asked: "What did mother just tell Li Daoyi?"

Chi Lian smiled and said: "It's because he wants to become a master and deal with Tao Zhongwen. Your old lady, I told him a lot of secrets, which made him stunned for a while, and wanted to study with fangs. My old lady had a flash of inspiration and took the opportunity to knock Made a..."

Tao Yin tremblingly said: "Mother changed the relics of the big demon?"

As a matter of course, Chi Lian took out the picture of the night walk of the ghosts: "It's changed! The magic weapon he got is overwhelmed by my mother. I'll try to see if I can sacrifice it later. It's such a good deal, why not change it?"

Tao Yin closed his eyes.

It's over!

The Red Scaled Snake Clan didn't have much backing, and now their only magic weapon has been tricked away...
