Liaozhai Great Sage

General Yecha looked puzzled: "To tell you the truth, Master Li, the general really can't hear the monks from Xiangguo Temple chanting scriptures. If it's an ordinary monk who can't hear the scriptures at home, it's fine, but that Shi Kong If the monk recites scriptures, the general will have a headache as long as he is in the capital, his scriptures are particularly powerful, especially this time, the general will almost die of pain at home, and finally brought his own soldiers to seal the Xiangguo Temple under the unbearable situation."

"It turned out to be like this."Li Xiuyuan pondered.

This is also a problem.

But at this moment, Master Shikong came over and said: "Amitabha, this is the last sutra lecture for the poor monk. Now that the pilgrims have been dispersed by the general, the lecture has also been interrupted. It is natural for the poor monk to lecture this time." It's over, I won't open the altar to preach scriptures in the future, but I just ask the general not to seal up the Xiangguo Temple, and give the people in the capital a chance to pray to God and worship Buddha."

"But this general has already issued an order." General Yasha said.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Then sell me a face and take back the order."

General Yasha immediately said: "Since it is the order of the adults, how dare the general not obey it, come here, pass on the general's order, close the team, and will not seal up the Xiangguo Temple in the future."

Immediately, he gave orders to his own soldiers.

After the dozens of personal soldiers received the order, they immediately stopped sealing up Xiangguo Temple and returned to the team to gather them.

Li Xiuyuan asked again: "I heard the general talk about Wutongjiao before, does the general know Wutongjiao well?"

General Yacha said: "To be honest, Mr. Li didn't know Wutong Sect soon after he came to the capital. I don't know when the minions of the Wutong Sect began to extend to the court. I heard that there are members of the Wutong Sect in the imperial palace. They have been severely suppressing and arresting followers of the Wutong Sect."

"The last general also recently received an order to patrol the capital and arrest the Wutong believers who are causing trouble in the capital together with the people from Six Doors."

Li Xiuyuan's expression moved slightly, he realized that this was the way that the national teacher was sending people to cooperate with him to deal with Wutong Sect.

If Wutong Sect really has five demons whose Taoism is comparable to that of immortals, it is impossible to rely on mortal means. Someone must be able to deal with these demons and ghosts with profound Taoism, and who in the capital is more suitable than myself.

"I remember that the day after tomorrow is Shangyuan Festival. What are the arrangements for the general?" He asked suddenly.

General Yasha said: "Naturally, additional manpower will be sent to patrol. I heard that even a few princes will go out of the imperial city to visit the capital during the Shangyuan Festival. This is a very important thing. Naturally, the general cannot let anything happen during this Accident."

Li Xiuyuan's face turned pale

Those princes want to visit the capital during the Shangyuan Festival?This courage is really fat, and I don't know what the national teacher thinks, doesn't he know that the capital city is full of demons dancing wildly during the Lantern Festival?

Or are there some things that the national teacher can't control?

Forget it, whether those princes and grandchildren are dead or alive has nothing to do with me.

"If that's the case, then the general should arrange more people. I personally think that something will happen in the capital on the day of Shangyuan Festival." Li Xiuyuan said.

"Thank you for reminding me, sir, I understand in my heart." General Yaksha said: "Please forgive me for what happened today. Since monk Shikong promised that I will not recite sutras, then I will trust him once. The general still has some official duties, so it is inconvenient to disturb your lord. Please allow the general to resign first."

"Since the general has something to do, please do it." Li Xiuyuan saluted.

"Then I will take my leave." General Yasha fisted his fists, and then quickly left here with his people.

"Thank you, benefactor Li. If it weren't for benefactor Li's generous help today, Xiangguo Temple might be in disaster." Master Shikong clasped his palms together and saluted.

Li Xiuyuan said: "Master, you are being polite, I didn't do it deliberately, but just casually, it's nothing."

"In order to express my gratitude, I would like to ask the benefactors to have a fast meal at Xiangguo Temple before leaving. The poor monk should also pray for the benefactors, and to eliminate disasters and avoid evil spirits for the benefactors." Master Shikong said again.

Zhu Yu's eyes lit up and said, "Thank you so much, Master."

"Thank you, Master." Zhang Bangchang hurriedly returned a salute.

"Raise your hand, it's kind and good." Master Shikong said.

Li Xiuyuan was not in a hurry to leave Xiangguo Temple, he took advantage of the time when all the pilgrims in Xiangguo Temple were driven away by General Yasha, and he visited Xiangguo Temple with his friends, but Master Shikong accompanied him all the way.

This made Zhang Bangchang and the others a little flattered.

But Li Xiuyuan also noticed that the monk Kasyapa had been following behind, like an ascetic, silent.

However, in the middle of the night, Li Xiuyuan found a separate opportunity to ask the monk about some changes in the situation in Jiajing City.

Of course he was not referring to the situation in the imperial court, but the situation of ghosts and gods in the capital.

"Benefactor Li, I know a thing or two about what I heard about the poor monk. The chaos of ghosts and gods in the capital has been going on for a long time. Although there are ups and downs and ups and downs, these are the most powerful places. One is the ghost foreman in the canal of the capital, He is a water ghost who has attained the Tao. He has practiced for more than 200 years, but his Taoism has surpassed that of a thousand-year-old ghost. According to the poor monk, this ghost foreman did not know why he obtained the theocracy of the underworld Lord Yan. It can’t be calculated by Daoxing.”

Monk Kasyapa said.

Li Xiuyuan stood up in shock: "What? Lord Yan's divine power fell into the hands of this water ghost?"

"It should be true, otherwise, after 200 years of practice, it would be impossible for him to reach the level he is today. Even many ghost kings obey his orders." Monk Kasyapa said.

"Yan Jun is reincarnated, and the divine power should be in the hands of the underworld empress. She gave me back the ghost seal of the underworld last time. Why...wait." Li Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes for a moment, moved his palm, and took out a green jade seal .

There are four grimaces of joy, anger, sorrow and joy on the jade seal, which are extremely weird and not like anything in the world.

"It turns out that the lady of the underworld already knew that the divine power was not there, so she simply sent out the ghost seal. The ghost foreman has obtained the divine power and already has the mana of Lord Yan. If he gets this ghost seal again, he can enter the underworld in a legitimate way and become a new one." Yan Jun, as for the book of life and death, maybe you don't even need it."

From his understanding, this ghost foreman can easily usurp the throne.

"The thing is like this... This lady of the underworld thought well. She gave me the ghost seal and gave me the reputation of commanding all the ghosts in the underworld. But at the same time, she also wanted me to compete with the ghost foreman for the position of Lord Yan. This is a great gift. It’s also a hot potato.”

After figuring this out, Li Xiuyuan didn't blame the underworld lady either.

She probably couldn't beat the ghost foreman, so she simply gave up Yan Jun's position generously and let capable people fight for it.

Those who can take the lead.

Because Li Xiuyuan still had the sword in his hand when he accepted the ghost seal, it would not be difficult to kill the ghost foreman and regain Yan Jun's divine power, but the empress of the underworld did not expect that his sword would be defeated by Dongyue's fighting skills up.

So now being kind and courteous has become a bad thing.

bad thing?

Li Xiuyuan looked at the ghost seal in his hand, but he didn't take it seriously. If he could take this opportunity to take back the divine power of the underworld, then there would be no difficulty in the heaven and underworld.

Chapter 665

Before that, Li Xiuyuan only thought that the ghost foreman was at best Lu Pan's first-class ghost.

Now it seems that he stole Yan Jun's theocratic power, and his ability cannot be deduced by common sense. He has Dongyue's theocratic power, and he is very aware of how powerful the divine power is.

If he had the Zhanxian Dao in his hand, he would not be afraid of that ghost foreman, but when his sword and Dongyue fought, both sides would be hurt, and it broke. Relying on half of the divine power and half of the Zhanxian Dao, he could kill that ghost Foreman?

He wasn't absolutely sure, but he wasn't afraid either.

But the monk Kasyapa continued: "The ghost foreman in the canal of the capital cannot be ignored, but that evil ghost is just one of them. There are dignitaries, there are traffickers, there are also ghosts, gods and monsters...the Wutong Sect is ruled by the Five Immortals, and their purpose is unknown in the capital, but they often make trouble, and even the imperial court can't do anything about it."

"I've heard about the Wutong Sect and have a little contact with it. What about other forces?" Li Xiuyuan said.

Kasyapa said: "All the temples in the capital are enshrined in the statues of the Taoist Lord. After the death of the Taoist Emperor, he was enshrined as a god. He also controls many ghosts and gods under his command, and he can also borrow the power of the court. Although he has not manifested, But the Son of Heaven becomes a god after death, which also violates the law of heaven, so the benefactor must pay attention."

"Taoist?" Li Xiuyuan pondered.
