Eat a Taiyi Taoist

Chapter 90: Yudaihe Boy Kills

The general trend of the world is vast and unstoppable. Those who follow it will prosper, and those who go against it will perish.

Then the great man changed his mind, not occupying the trust, and his writing was brilliant;

A gentleman changes like a leopard, and his culture flourishes;
The villain changes his ways and obeys the king.

A rough translation means that disaster is coming and a great catastrophe is approaching. The Emperor of Dayong Dynasty and the nobles in the court (who have both virtue and power) should take the initiative to change the policy, first stabilize the country and then fight against foreign aggression, and actively respond to the great catastrophe.

Gentlemen like Huang Junshi, Miao Zongren and Ke Youqiu (who had virtue but no power) who had been silent for thirty years suddenly heard the news, followed the trend and responded to the changes.

Under the unstoppable trend of the times, the ignorant and chaotic villains like Wutong Demon, Yudai River God, and Hu Lao (who had neither virtue nor power) changed their positions in time, obeyed the gentlemen and adults, and made changes, but their purpose was to survive.

Considering this point, Tao Tie could understand the choices and actions of Wutong Demon, Yudai River God, and Hu Lao.

However, understanding is one thing, accepting or not is another.

In the hustle and bustle of life, money comes and goes. If there is no profit to be gained, why would Tao Tie do something that is thankless and likely to get him into trouble?

So Tao Tie said indifferently: "I will give you ten seconds to tell me a reason why I am willing to accept your surrender on behalf of the teacher."

Upon hearing this, Wutong Demon, Yudai River God, and Hu Lao all showed joy on their faces.

Wutong Yaodao was the first to speak: "The Celestial Empire will definitely attack Baiwan Dashan, either next year or the year after. I have asked my good brother to go ahead. When the time comes, whether it is to provide intelligence to the Celestial Empire's expeditionary army or for the personal needs of the Sword Immortal and the Little Sword Immortal, my good brother and I will be of use."

In other words, Tao Tie is good at cultivating his qi and is able to keep his mind steady.

Ordinary people know how Wutong Yaodao had wronged Wutong Xieshen, and now when they hear him calling him "good brother" all the time, they really can't help but laugh.

These two brothers are really good and have a deep brotherly love!
The Jade Belt River Water God followed closely behind: "I don't have the magical powers of fellow Taoist Wutong, I can only say that I belong to the Jade Belt River Water Palace. From now on, I will absolutely follow all the instructions of the Sword Immortal and the Little Sword Immortal. If you want to target the Yu family, I am willing to be a vanguard and charge for the Sword Immortal and the Little Sword Immortal."

There is nothing surprising in these words, but they are from the heart.

There is no exaggeration in the content; it is the limit of what the Yudai River Water God can do.

There is still sincerity, and a lot of it.

Finally, Mr. Hu said, "I have a grudge against the Yu family. I had no choice but to board the Yu family's pirate ship in order to survive. If the Sword Immortal and the Little Sword Immortal want to deal with the Yu family, I can provide a lot of information about the Yu family and some of their secrets for your reference. In addition..."

At this point, Mr. Hu paused for a moment, hesitated for a while, and then continued: "In addition, the activity funds of Yu Yingying, the sixth daughter of the Yu family, who came to Liuxian County this time, as well as her own small treasury, were all hidden by me."

Ok?
After these words were spoken, not only did Tao Tie's eyes look a little strange, but even the eyes of Wutong Demon Taoist and Yudai River God when they looked at Old Hu became very strange.

You are so good, Lao Deng, you have this trick!
Moreover, it would have been bad enough if they had just stolen the event funds, but they also stole other people’s private money.

How could you do such a thing as stealing a house?

It is really unlucky for Yu Yingying to choose you as her aide, or for the eldest branch of the Yu family to assign you to be Yu Yingying's aide.

It is true that you can guard against thieves day and night, but you can never guard against thieves in your own home.

Then Mr. Hu said, "I am willing to unconditionally donate the Yu family's operating funds and Yu Yingying's small treasury. The total value of the two is about 180 high-quality spiritual jades."

Compared to gold and silver, spiritual jade and spiritual stones are the real hard currency among practitioners.

Spiritual jade and spiritual stones are divided into top grade, upper grade and lower grade. The exchange ratio among the three is flexible and there is no fixed number.

Generally speaking, gold and silver are mostly used in the transactions of yellow-grade magical instruments, secret manuals, and natural treasures; lower-grade spiritual stones and spiritual jade are mostly used in the transactions of black-grade magical instruments, secret manuals, and natural treasures; and so on.

What is more special is that spiritual stones, spiritual jade, gold and silver cannot be directly exchanged.

Not only is there no official channel, but once the private black market is discovered, it will definitely be eradicated by the Chinese government.

Anyone who dares to open this kind of black market will be held accountable to the end, no matter who they are involved.

There was once a prince consort who used the extinction of both his father's and mother's families as a bloody lesson to warn the world how strict the emperor of the Celestial Empire was in this area!
As for why...

Gold and silver are not only commonly used among practitioners, but also have strong purchasing power for mundane daily necessities.

If someone with ulterior motives releases a large amount of low-grade spiritual stones and spiritual jades and hoards gold and silver, causing major problems in the circulation of daily necessities and trade, and affecting the livelihood of ordinary people, would this force the Celestial Empire to kill a lot of people and bleed?

If gold and silver did not play many and irreplaceable roles in various spiritual practices, do you believe that the Dayong Dynasty would limit the circulation of gold and silver to ordinary people?
When it comes to people’s livelihood, no matter how trivial the matter is, it is important!
Of course, this is off topic.

What Tao Tie was concerned about at this moment was the numbers mentioned by Mr. Hu and the value behind the numbers.

What does one hundred and eighty top-grade spiritual jades mean?
The monthly salary of a ninth-rank inspector was only thirty low-grade spiritual jades or spiritual stones.

According to the current market price, one high-grade spiritual jade or spiritual stone can be exchanged for more than four hundred low-grade spiritual jade or spiritual stones.

Based on this, one hundred and eighty high-grade spiritual jades are equivalent to two hundred years of salary for a ninth-rank inspector general!
For Tao Tie at that time, this was a huge fortune.

At the same time, it is also nearby water that can solve urgent problems.

It is really too expensive to train soldiers and generals.

It's only been two days, and the little fortune that Tao Tie had saved with great difficulty has flowed away like water, and is about to run out!
In addition, he would need to customize some magical weapons in the near future and fully arm himself to deal with the battle that would inevitably happen next.

If you accept Mr. Hu's surrender, you don't have to be so anxious to learn the secrets of making incense and make your own religious incense.

There is no need to rush to find new sources of income.

You can slow down and take your time.

To be honest, Tao Tie was really tempted.

However, Tao Tie, who was moved, responded: "I will convey your intentions to the teacher, and it will be up to the teacher to decide whether to accept your surrender."

Money moves people's hearts.

But wealth and honor gained through unrighteousness are like floating clouds to me.

Touching the ordinary jade pendant hanging next to the azure storage bag on his waist, Tao Tie was very grateful for the gift of the jade pendant and hoped that he would become the county magistrate Miao Zongren who was as gentlemanly as jade.

A gentleman is like jade, which needs to be cut and polished, and pecking and grinding.

Everything in the world is a process of learning and polishing, so that a gentleman's character and morality can become better and more gentle.

Faced with this result, Wutong Demon, Yudai River God, and Old Hu could only accept it.

Even though they are quite anxious and want to get a positive answer immediately.

"In that case, I'm sorry to bother you, little sword fairy."

The water god of Yudai River and Mr. Hu bowed and bid farewell to Tao Tie.

The Wutong demon did not go with them and stayed behind at the end.

"Anything else?"

Tao Tie asked doubtfully.

"Ah."

Wutong Yaodao pointed at the storage bag on Tao Tie's waist and said, "Little Sword Immortal, would you like me to cover it for you? The ghost cubs from the Five Ghost Sect are almost in Liuxian County."

Obviously, as the true owner of the robbery weapon: the Wutong Evil God statue, the Wutong Demon is very familiar with the storage bag/Five Ghosts Bag.

And judging from his tone, he was not only familiar with the Five Ghosts Sect, but also somewhat disgusted with it.

This is the second person who mentioned the Five Ghosts Sect in front of Tao Tie today.

Tao Tie immediately asked: "Do you think I need to cover up?"

Wutong Yaodao thought about it seriously, nodded and shook his head: "I'm not sure."

"What do you mean?"

Tao Tie asked. Wutong Yaodao replied: "The people of the Five Ghost Sect are a bit weird. They are Taoists, but they tend to worship and pray to gods. They are witches, but they practice Qigong. In short, they are weird. If you deal with them, you should be more careful, so as not to be worshipped by them. I was almost worshipped by them and worshipped as a god every day."

"Ah."

Tao Tie nodded and responded calmly.

Wutong Yaodao wanted to say something else, but suddenly he looked up at the river surface, a smile appeared on his lips: "Little Sword Immortal has a guest, I will not disturb you, goodbye."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Wutong Demon Taoist suddenly turned into a snake and swam away quickly.

In fact, Tao Tie had already noticed the movement outside without being reminded.

Somehow, Yu Yingying came over with her four young male guards.

I don’t know whether she was looking for Mr. Hu or Tao Tie.

But one thing is certain, that is, Yu Yingying’s goal is very clear, and it’s pointing directly here!
"Are you trying to divert the trouble away, or are you targeting me?"

Muttering silently, Tao Tie no longer hid his whereabouts and jumped out of the water.

Feng Xu rode the wind and stood in the air.

"Where's Hu Weichang?"

Yu Yingying led people to approach, with a gloomy face, and asked coldly, "Tao Tie, I want to ask you, where is Hu Weichang? Where did you hide him? Where did he hide my money?"

With such an attitude, looking down on others and asking questions casually, it turned out that he had never looked Tao Tie in the eye.

"Yu Yingying, ah Yu Yingying,"

Tao Tie shook his head slightly. "What did I do wrong to make you disrespect me so much? You don't even want to call me 'Inspector General'."

"Don't tell me that."

Yu Yingying frowned and glared, speaking in a cold voice, "What a bullshit inspector, a small official, only people like you take him seriously! Answer my question, where is Hu Weichang now? Where is my money?"

Obviously, Hu Weichang is the full name of Mr. Hu.

Yu Yingying somehow found Hu Weichang's whereabouts, but there was a time lag.

Hu Weichang had left here for a while, and she just caught up with him now.

He didn't find Hu Weichang, but ran into Tao Tie head-on, so he was anxious and angry and asked him disrespectful questions.

In the Yudai River.

The Jade Belt River God, who took the middle-aged woman's temple priest away, looked at Old Hu who suddenly stopped and asked in horror: "How dare you use the Little Sword Fairy? Do you want to surrender or kill us?"

It was the middle-aged female temple keeper who was thrown into the Yudai River by Team 3 of Class A in the morning. The water god of the Yudai River used the power of the connection between gods and witches to protect the temple keeper's life. However, he did not dare to take her back to the Water Palace without knowing Tao Tie's intention.

Although he had not been directly accepted before, he already knew that there was hope for surrender.

Of course, the water god of Yudai River would take the middle-aged woman temple priest back with him.

After all, from the perspective of gods and witches, the middle-aged woman temple priest was injured because she wanted to gain benefits for the Yudai River God.

In a society like the Celestial Empire, who would dare to worship a god who cannot protect witches and shamans, unless he is an evil cultivator?

Hu Lao, or Hu Weichang, was even more terrified than the Jade Belt River God, and he kept shouting, "I didn't do that! How dare I! Am I tired of living? Who wants to harm me?"

"Noisy!"

The Wutong demon who caught up later changed from a snake back to a human form, and with a low roar, shocked the Jade Belt River God and Hu Weichang, and then said, "Don't worry! This matter has nothing to do with you and me, it's just the calamity. This calamity is the calamity of Yu Yingying, isn't it also the calamity of the little sword fairy? Going through this calamity is good for the little sword fairy, so the sword fairy didn't intervene. We'll just watch, there's no need to panic."

As he said that, Wutong Yaodao pointed casually and said, "Look, the people from the third branch of the Yu family have also come to join in the fun. If it weren't for the Sword Immortal's agreement, how could they enter Liuxian County at night and take revenge on the little Sword Immortal when the Liuhe Lianhuanwu of the third branch of the Yu family was just taken down this morning? Doesn't the Sword Immortal have any face?"

The Yudai River God and Hu Weichang looked in the direction pointed by the Wutong Demon Taoist, and suddenly found a group of people following Yu Yingying and heading towards the Yueyuji waters.

Looking at his sneaky look, it seems that he wants to reap the benefits.

Yueyuji waters.

A cold light flashed in Tao Tie's eyes.

He had already made up his mind that it didn't involve his cultivation or privacy, so it didn't matter if he was being followed.

But at this moment, not only does it involve one's own privacy, but one is also despised from the bottom of one's heart. Is this intolerable?
What do you call me this kind of person?!
With a thought, the Yin God "Taiyi Great Emperor" who had just been cultivated at noon jumped out from the Lingtai Zifu of the Niwan Palace, holding the newly acquired Tiandun/Chunyang Sword Heart, and escaped into the void.

The invisible Yin God holds a tangible sword heart, and "flashes" between the void and reality for a moment.

By the time the Yin Spirit returned to the Lingtai Zifu in the Niwan Palace to settle down before being burned by the bright sun, the tangible Tiandun/Chun Yang Jianxin had already used the Huan Sword of the Taiyi Fenguan Sword to instantly kill the people from the third branch of the Yu family who were sneaking around and trying to take advantage of the situation.

Huan, the wind blows over the water.

This wind can bring a gentle breeze without causing waves on the water, but it can also kill people without them being seen. How fast is it!
"what's the situation?"

Yu Yingying only felt that Tao Tie in front of her had used some means, but she could not sense what the means were or where they were used, and she was extremely frightened.

Under the close protection of four young male guards, he found that he was not attacked, and immediately spread his perception more finely and widely to find out what was happening.

It’s better not to check.

I became even more frightened after checking.

On the water surface at a distance behind her, hidden from her perception, the seven people who had been following her secretly were covering their foreheads with fear on their faces, falling powerlessly into the Yudai River, no longer alive.

Yu Yingying immediately recognized who these seven people were.

It was none other than the famous Seven Killing Stars from the third branch of the Yu family.

Among all the Yu family's middle-level cultivators, Qi Sha Xing is not the one with the most methods or the strongest attack power, but he is definitely the assassin with the most secretive whereabouts, the most treacherous methods, and the highest success rate in assassinations.

Since his debut, he has never failed.

If the Seven Killing Stars attacked her, Yu Yingying, she didn't think she could escape!

And now, he died so easily without her even noticing?
Die at the hands of this crude porter who got in by chance?
This crude porter in front of her dared to kill the Seven Killers of the Third Branch of the Yu Family without saying a word, so she...

Thinking of this, Yu Yingying was horrified and turned around and ran away.

There is no trace of his previous arrogance and superiority at all.

There was not even the slightest intention of taking the initiative to attack Tao Tie.

The upper sixth grade versus the lower seventh grade, the middle three grades versus the lower three grades. The one with great advantage in cultivation had the other, but they fled in panic and did not dare to act rashly.

It has to be said that it is an irony to Yu Yingying's condescending behavior these days.

And it should be so!
the reason is simple.

The Seven Killing Stars who were killed instantly by Tao Tie were successfully sensed by Yu Yingying only after a while after their death!

Yu Yingying, what can you use to fight against Tao Tie?
Without any instructions, the four young male guards joined forces and rushed forward, trying to hold Tao Tie back and buy Yu Yingying precious time to escape.

Tao Tie looked indifferent and unmoved. He ignored the charge of the four young male guards. His eyes were fixed on Yu Yingying, who was running away as fast as she could and was about to run back to the county town. He was weighing the pros and cons in his mind.

At this moment, it was very easy to kill Yu Yingying.

One sword is enough.

The key lies in whether we can deal with the aftermath.

If possible, how to deal with it.
