Seeing the pitch-black half body and the two skinny legs still kicking in the palm of General Zeng, Li Xiaomin was disgusted by the sight, turned his head and ignored him, waved his hands and said disgustingly: "You like to eat, take it yourself!"

General Zeng's good intentions made him feel bored, and walked back awkwardly. Seeing that the two daughters of Fengshuang were pulling out the sword from the old Daoist's shriveled body, they walked over flatteringly, and said with a smile: "You two girls, you killed me just now. The thief said, you have done the most, eat something and make up your body!"

The two beauties rolled their eyes and stepped aside, ignoring him.But General Sha jumped out from the side, snatched it away with his hand, and laughed loudly: "Thank you for your kindness!" He raised his neck, stuffed those two legs into his mouth, and started chewing relish.

General Zeng pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything, he just said: "You owe me once!" He walked back to see if his subordinate ghost guards were injured.

After counting it again, there are no ghosts missing. Although there is damage, it has been supplemented by the spiritual power of eating enemy ghosts. Basically, it is still a big advantage.

Li Xiaomin walked slowly to the top of the Wanbu mound, and shouted loudly: "Listen, all ghosts! I am the ghost-hunting master of the Tang Dynasty, and the queen has ordered me to be in charge of the ghost world in Jinling. Since you are a ghost in Jinling, you should be honored." I give orders, not to be disobeyed!"

Seeing that Dong Kuizi was dead, the group of ghosts were overjoyed, but they didn't want to obey this man's orders, so some ghosts chirped and shouted: "Who are you, to speak wild words? We are used to being carefree, so we don't want to Will obey your orders!"

Li Xiaomin didn't force the ghosts, he looked up to the sky and laughed loudly: "In that case, I will leave! Anyway, if you are trapped here, you will not cause any trouble to the people in Jinling City, and you will stay here until after ten thousand calamities That's all!"

After all, Li Xiaomin floated down the mountain and led his ghost guards away, leaving only nearly ten thousand ghosts sitting in the formation with big eyes and small eyes, but he couldn't be like him, who possessed powerful mana and could break through the formation calmly .

Going down the mountain, Li Xiaomin found the general of the nearby garrison, and showed him the letter of appointment given to him by Queen Zhou. He only said that he had obeyed the holy order and set up a magic circle to lock all the ghosts in Jinling City here. At this place, the garrison can seal off the mountain here, and do not let people or animals pass by, so as not to be harmed by the evil spirits in the mountain.

The general saw that the letter of appointment contained the words that he could command the nearby officials and the army to do things cheaply, and he dared not go against it, so he promised one by one. According to his instructions, he set up wooden signs outside the mountain, wrote warning words, and dispatched all the soldiers. , Guard the roads everywhere, surround the mass graves, and no one is allowed to pass by.

Above the Golden Luan Palace, all the officials stood in awe.There was no emperor sitting on the throne, but behind the bead curtain, a beautiful woman wearing a queen's dress sat there quietly.

Because the emperor Li Yu became ill recently due to a series of haunting incidents, and was bedridden, so he ordered the queen to supervise the country and deal with all affairs.

In other countries, it is rare for the queen to supervise the country.But in the Southern Tang Dynasty, it has a long history. Since the first emperor Li Zhihao, such things have happened in all dynasties.

Back then, after Li Zhihao led the army to rebel and killed Emperor Wu's family, he felt ashamed, fearing that the wronged soul would take his life, and he soon fell ill.Fortunately, his first wife, the first empress of the Southern Tang Dynasty, was smart and courageous, and she personally handled the court affairs on his behalf. Production, so that the people have enough food and clothing, and this is how the 300-year-old Tang Dynasty lived in peace and prosperity.

Since then, when the emperors of the Tang Dynasty were sick, they might appoint the queen mother, empress or prince to supervise the country.Therefore, the queens of each generation must have flexible political skills. The Queen Zhou of this dynasty is the daughter of Zhou Tai, the left minister of the dynasty. It is not difficult to stabilize the court situation when you are seriously ill.

As for her son, Li Zhao, the current crown prince, was not favored by the officials because of his natural cowardice.Even if he was asked to supervise the country, most of the time he still had to listen to his mother and grandfather. It would be better to let Queen Zhou directly supervise the country.

At this moment, Empress Zhou sat behind the beaded curtain and looked approvingly at the handsome young man standing on the Golden Luan Palace.

Li Xiaomin was wearing the court uniform of a fifth-rank official, holding an ivory wat board in his hand, lowered his eyes slightly, and said modestly: "My minister entrusted the empress and empress Hong Fu to trap tens of thousands of evil spirits in Jinling City with a large array of spirit locks. Outside mass graves. Only after a hundred days, the group of ghosts can be refined to make them dare not do evil. Wang Niangniang issued a decree to block the mass graves and prevent people and animals from entering or leaving, lest the evil spirits take advantage of the chaos and escape out, endangering the people."

Then, he sighed again, and said, "It's just that Dong Kuizi, another sorcerer who came to catch ghosts, was accidentally attacked by a group of ghosts and died unexpectedly. I also hope that the empress can give him a decent burial, and don't let him die in the wilderness."

Empress Zhou nodded with a smile, her phoenix eyes squinted at Danyang King Li Xiong, who was standing on the temple with a wat, and said with a smile: "The mage invited by Danyang King was unfortunately killed by an evil spirit, so he should have a good burial. For this matter, please ask Danyang King Do it yourself!"

Li Xiong lost face in public, bowed to accept the order swallowing his anger, and shot a jealous look at Li Xiaomin. Although he didn't know that he had killed Dong Kuizi, he also hated him for stealing the limelight and making himself ashamed.

Li Xiaomin just pretended not to see his venomous gaze, and stood humbly in front of the palace, waiting for the next instruction from Queen Zhou.

Empress Zhou looked at the beautiful young man with white teeth and red lips, her heart moved slightly, and she said with a calm smile: "Li Xiaomin, you are a servant in the palace, you are loyal, and you have made great contributions to my Tang court. This palace named you "Lingxiu Zhenren" 』, the third-rank official position, the title of captain of Changshui School, the first mansion bestowed by the imperial court, and you are allowed to live outside the palace. In order to prevent evil spirits from raging Jinling again, you can choose strong men from the Imperial Forest Army to form a city guard army, and teach They spell to ward off evil spirits."

Li Xiaomin was happy to hear that, not only was he appointed an official, but he also had an army to lead, which was very good for him to accumulate strength secretly.

He knelt down to thank him, and secretly rejoiced that the eunuch emperor was ill, which saved him from kowtowing to him.

After this matter was dealt with, Li Xiaomin got up and stood aside, among the hundreds of officials, with many eyes on him, all with envy and jealousy.

Hundreds of officials in the court came forward one after another, reporting all major state affairs to Queen Zhou, asking her to make a decision.

 

Section Reading 52

 Empress Zhou dispatched them one by one, and they were in perfect order. Li Xiaomin was secretly surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that such a beautiful woman with such a good internal affairs ability would be really suitable for her to manage the world.

After a while, all the officials finished playing, and the eunuch next to him chanted loudly and withdrew from the court.

After Li Xiaomin came down from the palace, many officials came to congratulate him, trying to get closer to him.Now that he is young, he already has the rank of third grade, and he is also a servant, so it can be said that he is relatively close to the emperor and empress.And it seems that he is still in the Queen Zhou's faction. In the future, when the crown prince succeeds to the throne, he must be the crown prince's confidant. If you make friends with him, the benefits will definitely not be small.

Li Xiaomin laughed and laughed with all the officials.Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Li Xiong snorted coldly, walked away, went to the front of the hall to fetch Dong Kuizi's black and charred corpse, and went down to bury him.

From that day on, Li Xiong said he was sick and never went to court, hid and did not see anyone, and no one knew where he had gone.

Three days later.

Under the scorching sun, nearly ten thousand ghosts trapped in the Ten Thousand Ghost Formation, among them those with low spiritual power, could no longer resist the yang energy contained in the scorching sun, and their souls flew away and dissipated in the air.The rest were also crying and scrambling to hide under the shade of the trees so as not to follow in their footsteps.

Seeing dozens of ghost companions being melted by the scorching sun, Feng Dazhu was also saddened by the death of a rabbit, but he didn't know when such a fate would fall on him.Although I have practiced for 200 years and have strong spiritual power, but I have been trapped here, my spiritual power has been imprisoned, and it will be a matter of time before my soul flies away.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but regret it.If he had listened to the young mage's words that day and was willing to be his subordinate, he would not have fallen to such a point.

Although he, like the old Taoist priest, was restless and kind, and wanted to subdue himself as a slave to ghosts, he was not as ruthless as Dong Kuizi, who wiped out the spiritual consciousness of all the ghosts who took refuge in him, and became like an idiot Same.Now that I think about it, according to the young mage, I just want to sign a ghost slave contract with him, and he may not let me do something harmful, and I can keep my spiritual consciousness from dying Bitter.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help raising his ghost eyes and looked down the mountain from a distance, hoping that the mage would not give up the nearly ten thousand ghost slaves. How could such a huge strength be let go?Although the fighting ability of the three hundred ghost guards under him is stronger than that of the nearly ten thousand ghost slaves here, the strength of the ghost slaves is not measured only by their fighting ability.

As if he had heard his call, in the distance, a figure in white, riding a steed, passed through the army's defense line and slowly walked towards the mass grave.

Feng Dazhu was overjoyed to look at him, and saw that the person who came was handsome, with a smile on his lips, it was the powerful young sorcerer, he couldn't help being pleasantly surprised, and made up his mind, no matter what other ghosts said, he must take refuge in him first, lest he Get angry again and leave yourself here until the sun melts away all ghosts.

The steed Mercedes approached the Ten Thousand Ghosts Formation, but his footsteps slowed down. He stood under the mass grave, trembling all over, and the mane on his body was trembling slightly.

Li Xiaomin smiled slightly, squeezed the magic formula, and punched a soul-suppressing talisman into the horse's head. Sure enough, he saw that the horse was much more energetic, and walked up to the mass grave with its head held high.

Standing high on the hill, Li Xiaomin looked up, but saw nearly ten thousand ghosts, all crowded under the shade of the trees, looking at him with pitiful eyes, couldn't help smiling, and was about to speak, suddenly saw hundreds of ghosts, in a strong Under the leadership of Han, they rushed towards him, prostrated themselves more than a dozen feet away, and shouted tremblingly: "Master! The little devil is willing to worship the master as the master, and only asks the master to rescue the little one, and don't let the little one stay in the house again." here!"

Li Xiaomin was taken aback, he didn't expect these ghosts to be so afraid of the sun, they couldn't stand it after only three days in the sun, they were far worse than his own ghost guards.

When the other ghosts saw someone picking their head, they didn't dare to lag behind. They rushed out from the shade of the trees one after another, kowtowed to the ground, shivered by the scorching sun, and kowtowed desperately, begging Li Xiaomin not to give up on them, Being his ghost slave for eternity, I can't care less about it.

Li Xiaomin looked at the frightened and begging eyes of those ghosts, and couldn't help but soften his heart, and sighed leisurely: "You don't have to do this! Since you want to be my ghost slaves, here are my regulations, and you must abide by them!"

Those ghosts kowtowed desperately and screamed: "Master! What the master says, we just do it. I beg the master to accept us quickly, and don't let us be melted by the sun!"

Li Xiaomin looked up to the sky, stretched out his hand, and muttered something.Not long after, the situation changed, and dark clouds floated from a distance, covering the entire mass grave, blocking the harsh sunlight from above the dark clouds.

Tens of thousands of ghosts breathed a sigh of relief, and were amazed at Li Xiaomin's powerful magic power.Even those rebellious ghosts, most of them knelt down and kowtowed, willing to worship this powerful mage as their master.

Li Xiaomin lived on the top of the post, looked around at the ghosts, and said calmly: "Since you regard me as the master, I will ignore the past and the past. But from now on, unless you follow my orders, you must not kill or kill. Do you obey?"

Nearly ten thousand ghosts kowtowed to the ground and said: "Master, it's not easy for us to be ghosts. We dare not do murder in order to avoid the punishment of God. In the past, there were murderers, but it was because of grievances and revenge. Now our The enemies are all dead too. I would like to abide by the master's decree and never kill anyone again. I just hope that the master can eliminate disasters and karma for us when we are no longer needed in the future, so that we can be reincarnated without forcing us to find a substitute. In this way, little one I am deeply grateful for the kindness of the master!"

Li Xiaomin nodded and said: "That's natural. In the future, I will achieve great success in immortality and make great achievements. If you are willing to re-enter reincarnation, I will personally chant the mantra for you to eliminate karma, so that you can also find a good family to reincarnate in the next life! "

All the ghosts bowed down gratefully, although they couldn't fully believe it, but since the master is willing to say this, there is always hope in the future.

Li Xiaomin looked at the kowtowed ghosts all over the mountains and plains, and said loudly: "Today, you can sincerely serve me as your master, so I will let you go back and return to Jinling. Among you, hundreds of leaders should be set up to lead the group of ghosts." , in charge of large and small areas in the city. In Jinling City, all matters, big or small, must be reported to the head, and the leader will report to the big leader. From now on, you will be my eyes and ears, what are you willing to do?"

The group of ghosts were afraid of being subdued at the beginning, because they were afraid of becoming slaves of people, and doing dangerous things like taking chestnuts out of the fire, but now they just listen to the news everywhere. Ghosts do this kind of thing most easily, and there is no danger, so they bow down with joy , promised with all his mouth, and promised to report all the fights between cats and dogs in the gutter to the leader, and the leader would report to the owner.

At the moment, Li Xiaomin signed a master-slave contract with the ghosts, strictly ordering them not to disturb the people anymore, and promised to order the people in Jinling to burn incense frequently to feed the ghosts. Find valuable information.If you get important information, you can write it down in the credit book. If you have done more meritorious service and reached a certain standard, you can apply to the big boss, who will report it to the master and ask the mage to save the ghost for the meritorious service.If you don't want to reincarnate, you can also take advantage of this credit to learn spells from ghost guards, so that you have a chance to become a ghost fairy in the future.

All the ghosts were overjoyed and sincerely bowed down to their master for their kindness.From then on, the homes of those high-ranking families, generals and officials have become places where ghosts gather. Countless ghosts who dream of making meritorious deeds will stay there, and even when they are married, they are reluctant to leave. In just a few words, I got information about the important affairs of the court.It's a pity that Li Xiaomin didn't allow them to enter the palace, nor allowed them to enter his private house outside, so that those ghosts who were assigned to the site near the palace and dreamed of going to the palace to snoop and do meritorious deeds all bowed their heads and sighed.
