The Establishment and Development of Chunyang Palace in the Realm of Cultivation
Chapter 90: The Moon is Dark and the Wind Is High
As night falls, everything is silent. Cultivators have no distinction between day and night. They work day and night and practice diligently. This is the way of cultivation followed by many monks.There are not many monks with real strength in Hubeng Town. The reason is that people go to high places and water flows to low places.The monks who are truly talented and have opportunities have all gone to the cultivation sect, or become vassals of the aristocratic family, but ordinary people have ordinary lives to live.
Most of the residents in Hubeng Town are engaged in business, relying on the huge inexhaustible resources of Zhenzhu Lake to earn money from monks.This is also a model of interdependence between monks and ordinary people.Cultivators pursue strength and wish to attain enlightenment and immortality. Strong strength puts them at the top of the class. However, the more powerful they are, the more they need resources. The acquisition of resources is often inseparable from ordinary people who cannot cultivate.
The mining of spirit stone mines, the cultivation and breeding of food, the circulation of products from various places... Inadvertently, the power of ordinary people has affected the monks, and it can even be said that the two share weal and woe, and life and death are related.This practical problem has been known and promoted by people of insight many years ago. After so many years, there is nothing wrong with it. The harmonious coexistence between monks and ordinary people has become a matter of course in this world.
In the years before the calamity of Dao and Demons, there were indeed cases of monks who ignored life and death and slaughtered ordinary people. In that generally dark age, Dao killed demons, demons killed demons, and slaughtered a city for the sake of killing one person. Bloody and cruel things are rare. Not surprisingly, people living in peaceful times can hardly imagine it.Thousands of years have passed, those who have experienced those years, those who have ascended to ascension, those who have been sitting in meditation, and those who have stayed in the realm of self-cultivation, all live in seclusion, and history only leaves a few traces on the pages of the book.
However, in the generally peaceful environment, abnormal deaths of ordinary residents have occurred one after another in Hubeng Town. It is obvious from the corpses of the deceased that this is a monk's method.What kind of deep hatred is it that makes a cultivator who can call the wind and call the rain, and who is high and high, lay such a poisonous hand on ordinary people?Could it be that the evil way is ready to move again, and has done some evil work?
"Is there someone here in Hubeng Town?" Zheng Haoran, who was sitting on the first floor of the hotel by the window and having tea, said inarticulately.
"Please swallow the food before you talk! You sprayed the table with scum!" Qi Xian, who was sitting opposite, stepped back three feet, flicked his sleeves, and the table was clean.
Zheng Haoran bulged his cheeks, chewed the food in his mouth quickly, and finally swallowed it with a sip of water, and wiped his mouth with his sleeve without hesitation: "It's over, is this okay?"
Qi Xian's disgusted eyes almost made Zheng Haoran into a sieve, Zheng Haoran decided to change the subject: "I'm serious, the atmosphere in the town has changed again these two days, haven't you noticed?"
Qi Yuan put down the teacup and wiped the rim with her fingers: "People in the town seem to have settled down a lot."
"It's only been two days since we came back. The situation can be stabilized so quickly. I'm afraid the other party has a strong background. Their goals should be the same as ours." Zheng Haoran concluded.
"Zheng Haoran," Qi Xuan rested his hands on the table, propping his face with his palms, "What have you been up to these two days? When I look for you, there is always no one."
"I went to the places where a few dead people were dead before, and checked some things." Zheng Haoran filled Qi Xian's teacup with water again, and pushed it back in front of Qi Xian.
"You pay too much attention to the things in Hubeng Town, why, do you want to solve this matter?" Qi Xuan took back the teacup.
"Almost, do you want to come with me?" Zheng Haoran asked.
"We're only staying here for a short time. Qianqian has been urging me to go to Zhongchengzhou. Can you solve it in a short time?" Qi Xian was really skeptical. It is impossible to solve all kinds of murders that are full of fog.
"I'll have to try if it's okay, I'll benefit from solving this matter." Zheng Haoran raised the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"I don't care about you anymore, just do as you please." Qi Yuan waved his hand to indicate what you want to do.
"Aren't you with me?" Zheng Haoran asked.
"I'm with you, who is going to teach the apprentices?" It has been decided to teach the Chunyang Kung Fu first, but now only Qi Xian and Zheng Haoran know how to use the Chunyang Kungfu, and Zheng Haoran doesn't even know it. The reason for this is that you can only rely on Qi Xian?Zheng Haoran touched his nose in embarrassment, he really couldn't do without Qi Xian.
Just like Zheng Haoran, the person who investigated the time of death was also the person who initiated this incident.A team of demon cultivators led by Aquan and Qi Yu, who was forced to board the pirate ship, have been tracking down the murderer since the beginning of their lives, but it seems a little too late even if they make amends.
"Another one died." Qi Yu lowered his head, his expression could not be seen under the shadow, but the gloom in his words was fully revealed.
"..." Ah Quan was speechless, he raised his hand to pat Qi Yu's shoulder, but put it down halfway.
"It will be resolved if you agree." Qi Yu raised his head, his dark eyes fixed into A Quan's.
"..." Aquan let out a meaningless breath from his throat. The life and death of ordinary people is actually completely ignored by the demon cultivators. Most of the time, the demon cultivators only have tribes and fellow demon cultivators in their eyes.Daoist cultivators and demonic cultivators are dismissive, let alone ordinary people who are like dust and mud without the slightest cultivation?Ah Quan couldn't understand Qi Yu's feelings, wasn't he also a monk with power?Why do I still worry about the life and death of ordinary people?It is clearly common sense for a practitioner to have no dust in his eyes.
"It's ordinary people who are dying now, one or two, you won't mind, let alone worry, but you and I both understand the horror of spirit-eating insects! When one or two ordinary people can't satisfy his demand for spiritual energy, he will Kill three, kill four, kill countless! When no matter how many ordinary people are not satisfied, they will directly devour the spiritual power of monks! Why were you so careless at the beginning and insisted on using spirit devouring insects? , can the demon cultivator stay out of the matter?"
Qi Yu blamed angrily, but he didn't target anyone present, he was blaming the entire demon cultivator world.Raising terrifying spirit-eating insects and sneaking into the city of Human Cultivator, Qi Yu has reason to believe that the Demon Cultivator has harbored ill intentions towards Human Cultivator for a long time, and is very likely planning something!At this time, he looked at Aquan with suspicion.
Aquan felt Qi Yu's distrust, but he felt tightness in his chest, he was angry, Qi Yu's suspicion, Qi Qi Yu didn't lead him for several days and nights at all, just to find the spirit devouring insects, Make up for mistakes.
"What have we done, what are we going to do, why do we need to explain to others, we don't stick to you, you go, I promise you about the spirit-eating insects, I will do it, you go back to your division. "A Quan refrained from saying bad words, but he really felt the natural barrier between humans and demons. After all, they are not in the same way, and there will always be times when they part ways.
Qi Yu's eyes widened, as if he never expected A Quan to make such a decision.Indeed, Qi Yu didn't expect it, he was caught off guard.These days, the three demon cultivators went in and out with him, walking the streets and alleys. Although the bottom of his heart kept shouting, how could these demon cultivators have such a reason? A demon cultivator is a demon cultivator, or something like that, but he couldn't deny that he was used to it. .
"Okay, since that's the case, I'll go back to Wangshan City, and it would be the utmost righteousness not to disclose your whereabouts. So far, we will not interfere with each other, and there will be no further involvement!" Qi Yu came back to his senses, quickly made a decision, and resolutely Turning around abruptly, not giving Aquan a chance to speak at all.
A Quan watched Qi Yu drift away, and then quickly looked away: "Let's continue to look, to the latest death scene." The Pan's alley is now deserted, and no one will notice if a few demon cultivators appear here.The sun is already setting in the sky, and a crescent moon is looming in mid-air, and night is coming soon.
"Just let him go like this? Do you believe that he won't reveal our whereabouts?" Lu Dan didn't follow Aquan, but leaned against the wall motionless, and said.
"The person I don't want to trust the most is actually you, so are you worthy of my trust?" Aquan turned his head and said blankly.
"Aquan, you know who I am, why bother to piss me off again and again? Back to the Demon League, can you please me?" Lu Dan slowly approached Aquan, his words and deeds were the same as before. Their appearances vary greatly, but the one thing that remains the same is that they are as annoying as ever.
"Lu Dan, I just opened up and said that the so-called elders will be born in the sky, fire and phoenix nirvana, the Cangming beast will be sealed, and the five-element tortoise will disappear in name only. What are those people paying attention to now with the signboard of the elders? Sir Qi and that adult will not know about it? The adults are concerned about affection, so please be quiet, don’t show shame, and besides, there is a limit to my patience with you.” A Quan did not restrain his anger Meaning, the ruthless words are very straightforward, the two of them are facing each other at this moment, as if they are tearing their skins apart.
Lu Dan's face was ashen, he didn't say a word, he just clenched his fists tightly, his veins were already bulging.A Quan took one last look at Lu Dan with contempt in his eyes, and then walked out of Panjia Lane first, Hu Po, who had been standing quietly and not involved in the dispute between the two, followed closely, but did not look at Lu Dan.In this small team, the factions represented are already obvious.From this point of view, the lineage of demon cultivators may not be so peaceful.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the lower city was plunged into darkness. The shops closed early, and all the pedestrians returned home.In a certain corner of the downtown area, patches of black shadows flew over, one after another but silently, falling on places where the moonlight could not reach, in the shadow of the corner, on the backlight of the roof, on the branches of old trees.They act in unison, lurk quietly and display good discipline.
who are they?Uniform attire, strong mobility, and discipline of orders and prohibitions, all of which clearly come from the special combat power of a large force.Why did such a group of people come to a place like Hubeng Town?This question can be answered by the Office of the Revision Committee in Hubeng Town.
