Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

Chapter 144: Under the orders of the master, arrest the criminals!

Holding the porcelain altar, Zhao Ping walked through the remote alleys as usual.

There was wind under his feet and he walked extremely fast.

With one step, you can leap several meters into the air.

He is obviously a martial arts practitioner and knows how to leap lightly.

Turn around an alley.

Zhao Ping suddenly felt a chill on his face, as if he was holding a ball of water mist.

"how……"

Before he finished speaking, a big hand appeared out of thin air, strangled his neck, and slammed him into the air. The dust on the wall shook off, and the porcelain altar he was holding fell into the man's hands.

"Interesting, instead of using monks, we use secular warriors.

Do the opposite and want to make a difference in thinking, right? "

A figure appeared in the mist, and Qi Xiu took a look at the frightened man in front of him.

An ordinary Qi Condensation Realm martial artist.

He is in his forties and nothing else special.

“A role like yours should be that of an errand boy.

I'm afraid I don't know any important information.

Forget it, just ask. "

The man was stunned by his thoughts, and Qi Xiu began to ask the man about the information he knew from various angles.

But it was just as he expected.

This man named Li Ping is just an errand boy.

When you are in charge, Sun remembers your footsteps.

In his memory, he only knew that on the seventh day of every lunar month, he went to Jingxinxuan on time, picked up the porcelain altar, and sent it to Xinji Porridge Shop.

Don't know anything else.

His eyes fell on the porcelain altar in his hand. Qi Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly, held up the body-protecting weapon, and opened the porcelain altar.

"This is……"

Qi Xiu frowned when he saw that the porcelain altar was still moving like a brain, like a living thing.

"Is it possible that Liu Liansheng built so many industries and secretly contracted that weird baby just to create this kind of thing?"

Feeling that he had figured out the main thread of the matter, Qi Xiu raised his hand and put Li Ping into the elixir bag.

He transformed into Li Ping.

"Xinji Porridge Shop?"

……

Xinji Porridge Shop.

A little-known simple shop in Yuxiangfang. This is the most remote and poor city in Jiang'an Prefecture because it is located at the angle between two mountain ranges.

The mountains silt up your luck and it often rains.

Mudslides, rolling rocks, and landslides are common occurrences.

Except for the poor, few people make a living here.

Therefore, this place has a very low sense of presence in the entire Jiang'an Mansion.

Snapped!

Chen Wu, the owner of the porridge shop who was wearing an apron and yawning, had his eyelids drooped and was bored as he swatted the hovering flies with a fly swatter.

And just when he successfully killed the seventeenth fly today.

A hurried figure quickly arrived at the porridge shop, holding a porcelain jar in his hand.

Seeing the man holding the porcelain altar, the porridge shop owner's sleepy expression suddenly became energetic.

"Old Chen, receive the goods."

Putting the porcelain altar on the table, the visitor wiped the sweat from his face, picked up the kettle on the table and poured it into his mouth.

"Got it."

Picking up the porcelain altar on the table, Chen Wu turned around and stuffed it into the wooden cabinet behind him without looking at it. He also took out an empty ancestral hall and handed it to the visitor.

"The rewards are all in the jar."

He opened the mouth of the altar and saw the white silver inside. The visitor curled his eyes and said with a smile:

"Okay, let's see you next month."

All afternoon.

Dozens of people came to the Xinji Porridge Shop carrying porcelain jars, put down the porcelain jars, picked up the reward money and the empty porcelain jars, and then turned around and left.

Chen Wu was only responsible for collecting the porcelain altar.

There seemed to be no curiosity at all about what was in the jar.

at dusk.

"The rewards are all in the jar."

Pushing the empty porcelain altar in front of the errand boy named Li Ping, Chen Wu stretched and was about to return to his seat and sit down.

However, he found that the errand boy had no intention of taking the money and leaving, but instead stared at him thoughtfully.

"You, you, don't just take the money and leave..."

Halfway through the words, Chen Wu rolled his eyes and fell into a state of confusion and being at the mercy of others.

Chen Wu was stunned, and Qi Xiu tortured the porridge shop owner as usual.

Similar to Li Ping, the errand boy, the porridge shop owner was just following orders.

Responsible for putting away the porcelain altar delivered by errands every month.

Then give the empty porcelain altar and reward money to the errand boy.

And these collected porcelain altars will be taken away by someone themselves that evening, leaving empty porcelain altars.

“Separated layer by layer, even if you catch one of the links, you don’t know the function of the previous link at all.

Well laid out and well structured.

It's just that Qi's curiosity is really strong. I want to see what you are going to do by wrapping yourself up like this. "

The unconscious porridge shop owner and Li Ping were packed into the backyard woodshed.

Qi Xiu unfolded the Water Escape Light, completely hiding his figure, and then sat in the lobby of the porridge shop, waiting for the person who took away the porcelain altar to appear.

Bang Bang!

There was the sound of a watch outside the door.

The time has reached midnight.

Sitting quietly in the porridge shop, Qi Xiu's eyes were calm and unhurried, waiting for the next person to appear.

Another hour passed in the blink of an eye.

Just when it was completely quiet outside, almost everyone fell asleep safely.

A mysterious, dark ray of light quickly shuttled through the streets and alleys and arrived at the Xinji Porridge Shop in an instant.

coming.

Hearing the movement, Qi Xiu's eyes moved slightly.

The visitor was very familiar with his movements. After entering the lobby of the porridge shop, he took out a piece of dark brown furoshiki and pocketed it for the cabinet full of porcelain jars.

The porcelain altars in the cabinet were all wrapped in furoshiki.

<divclass="contentadv">Then the man took out another piece of furoshiki, followed the same pattern and filled the cabinet with empty porcelain jars.

After doing all this, the man walked away.

The whole process was smooth and flowing, without any delay.

It's obviously been done many times.

In the silence of the night.

Two escaping lights shuttled rapidly through the streets.

Completely unaware that there was someone less than five meters behind him, the monk collecting the porcelain altar walked all the way back to a mansion.

In front of the mansion, Qi Xiu stopped.

He raised his head and looked at the black-topped and gold-rimmed plaque with flying dragons and phoenixes.

Three big characters, dazzling.

【Provincial Governor's Mansion】

……

"My lord, your inauguration ceremony will be held soon, and soon your name will be resounding throughout the entire Yunnan and Sichuan provinces."

Nestling in Gan Xingba's arms, Nian Yiyi gently rubbed his chin, eyes full of love.

"It's all thanks to you."

Holding his frail and boneless wife in his arms, Gan Xingba looked satisfied.

"When my master asked me to go down to the mountains and join the world, I didn't want to.

Thinking about it now, I was really stupid at that time.

No matter how nice the mountains are, it’s hard to find the world as colorful as it is.

And if I hadn’t come down from the mountain, wouldn’t it be that my husband and I wouldn’t have been able to meet each other? "

Speaking of this, Gan Xingba hugged his wife hard in his arms again, wanting to rub her into his body before he stopped.

"We are destined to meet each other no matter what." She caressed her husband's arm and said:

"But speaking of which, if you become an official, will your master agree?"

"Don't worry, Master has loved me the most since I was a child. I am an official to benefit the people, and I am not a demon to cause harm.

It's too late for him to be happy, so how could he disagree? "

Gan Xingba didn't seem to think there was anything wrong with becoming an official. Gan Xingba waved his hand nonchalantly.

"That's good."

Close to Gan Xingba's chest, Nian Yiyi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and a strange color appeared in her clear and bright eyes.

……

"Then the kid didn't notice anything."

In the dark palace.

Nian Yiyi knelt down on the smooth, dark marble floor.

In front are five figures sitting on thrones, their faces obscured by shadows.

"No, Xingba is simple-minded, straightforward and forthright, and he has no reservations about me.

I am not opposed to taking up my post and am very happy about it. "

Nian Yiyi replied.

“That’s good, we also chose this kid because of his innocent heart.

Yiyi, after he takes office, you must assist him well. We will arrange everything to make him famous. "

One of the figures spoke in a deep voice.

"By the way, you still need to eat more of that infant marrow.

This extremely evil and evil thing can only be digested by you. It can increase the concentration of your Yin Yuan blood.

Your Yin Yuan blood will be of great benefit to that child.

Not only can it increase its cultivation skills.

It also allows him to enter the blood-stained realm at a lower threshold.

Apart from some dependence on you, there are no other side effects. "

Another figure spoke.

"Yiyi understands that as long as it is for the good of Xingba, Yiyi will do anything he wants."

……

The sky is clear and the sun is clear, and the miles are empty.

Inside the governor's mansion.

Prominent figures in Jiang'an Mansion gathered in this official residence, and the towering red walls were hung with gorgeous embroidered curtains.

With a long whistle.

In an atmosphere of reverence and solemnity, the entry team began a grand and grand entrance ceremony.

Officials holding golden books and official uniforms held up placards and walked in front, reading out the achievements and moral character of the officials who were about to take over the position.

Then came the drummers, lion dance team, and pennant team, which was lively and noisy.

And when everything is done.

The main hall door slowly opened.

Gan Xingba, neatly dressed and shining brightly, stepped out.

Wearing brocade clothes, a jade belt, and a turban hat, he looked majestic in the sunshine.

At this time, everyone congratulated him.

At this moment, Gan Xingba felt that he had reached the peak of his life.

He turned sideways and looked back. His wife was standing behind the hall door, looking at him with a look of relief and encouragement.

"Please ask the Governor to receive the canonization document and the official seal of the jade ribbon!"

After adjusting his clothes, Gan Xingba looked serious and slowly raised his hand to greet the official seal of the clerk, which symbolized the status and power of the governor of Fucheng.

But just when his hand was raised.

Bang!

A loud bang!

Everyone was shocked and followed the sound.

The door to the Governor's Mansion was kicked open.

A slender and tall figure stood indifferently at the door.

"How dare you! How dare you come to cause trouble on the day when the Governor is appointed!"

In an instant, several monks with stern faces and armor at the peak of their careers stood up and shouted fiercely.

Take one step forward and appear in front of everyone.

The handsome and fair young Taoist with a face like a crown jade looked around, slowly raised his hand, and held up a token:

"The direct disciples of the Shenxiao Sect are cultivating together.

At the command of the teacher!
