Yangyue

Zhu Zhongyan's shout immediately attracted the attention of Qi Zhu and Henry Zhang. They looked at each other, and they both felt a little dignified in each other's eyes.

Zhu Zhongqian was startled, and together with a few maidservants beside him, they quickly held Zhu Zhongyan down. Zhu Zhongyan struggled hard, his face flushed red, and he kept chanting unintelligible words.

Xiao Yangyue picked up a glass of water on the table and splashed it on Zhu Zhongyan's face. The latter looked dazed, and then slowly recovered his sanity.

Zhu Zhongyan stared at Zhu Zhongqian in a daze, and suddenly held his shoulders with both hands, his voice trembling with fear: "Brother...Big Brother! This mansion is not clean... There are demons haunting the mansion! My father, my father, my father... He must have been killed by these filth!"

Zhu Zhongqian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly frowned: "Second brother, did you have a nightmare?"

Zhu Zhongyan's eyes were deeply bloodshot, he gasped in shock, and said dryly: "Yes... I dreamed of many snakes, many snakes that shed their skins... They are entangled with me, densely packed... They want to swallow me alive !"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Zhu Zhongyan's words fell, Zhu Zhongqian's face turned pale, as if he remembered something terrible.Seeing Zhu Zhongqian's terrified expression, Qi Zhu asked, "My lord, what's the matter?"

"Master Hou doesn't know something..." Zhu Zhongqian murmured, "I also had this dream last night."

Henry Zhang on the side heard the words, and her hand holding the hilt of the sword was slightly tight: "Please tell me the truth."

Zhu Zhongqian reached out and rubbed his frowning brows, and said slowly: "I don't know when it was last night, I was haunted by nightmares, and the dreams were all... monsters with human bodies and snake heads. When I woke up, I thought The shadow of the candle on the window was a climbing poisonous snake, which frightened me so much that I asked the maid to put out the candle..."

Hearing this, Zhu Zhongyan's face became even paler. He looked like he was about to go mad. He held his head in horror and shouted: "Father was also trapped by this nightmare when he was alive. Now that father is gone, this ghost Still staying in the palace... This ghost has come to us!"

"Your Majesty, don't be confused by these rumors of strange power and chaos." Qi Zhudao, "The death of the prince was done by the assassin. The ignorance of the Duke of the county is not in the hands of the assassin, isn't it?"

Zhu Zhongyan was slightly taken aback, although his expression was still mixed with fear, he gradually calmed down.

Henry Zhang: "My son, besides candles, were there other things lit in the room last night?"

"Incense was also burned."

Qi Zhu looked around and saw that there was no incense burner in King Min's bedroom. He summoned a servant girl and asked if the king burned incense last night, and the answer was no.

Qi Zhu: "The king of the county didn't burn the incense, but he also had the same nightmare. Presumably, it is exactly as the pavilion master checked, and it is not a problem with the incense."

Henry Zhang silently stared at the incense burner on the table, and suddenly said: "Master Hou, take a step to speak."

The two came to the small pavilion outside the courtyard where the King of Minjun lived, and Henry Zhang said straight to the point: "Master Hou, this matter must have come from the hands of the Moro Sect."

The Moro Sect worships the Snake Fairy, not only the assassination case of the prince, but now even the prince and the county king are entangled in this snake demon theory. If it is said that this matter has nothing to do with the Moro Sect, Qi Zhu does not believe it.

Qi Zhu: "I never figured out why the Moro Sect attacked the palace."

Henry Zhang stared heavily at the water surface under the small pavilion, and slowly stroked the pattern on the hilt with his fingers: "If you move the palace, you will shake the reputation and face of the imperial court, and they will seek their own death."

Qi Zhu smiled in a low voice, and said: "It's useless to say these things here, now it's better to look for clues to the Moro Sect as soon as possible."

The two were talking, when Bai Yu suddenly walked quickly from the side road, saluted the two, and took out a letter from his sleeve: "Just now the Quzhou government sent someone to send a secret letter, about the Luo Jiao."

Henry Zhang unfolded the letter, looked at it at a glance, and then handed the letter paper to Qi Zhu.

Qi Zhu took the letter, which said that the Quzhou government had identified and eliminated a secret missionary site of the Moro religion. "Luojiao Dharma Protector" preached.

According to the letter, the missionary office is located in a carpenter's shop in Dongxian County, Quzhou. During the search by the government, a lot of things were found. Now I would like to ask the master of the pavilion how to deal with it.

Bai Yu: "My lord, do you want to send someone to Dong County?"

Henry Zhang: "I will go in person and ask ten guards to follow me."

"Yes!"

After Bai Yu stepped back, Qi Zhu said, "I'll go with you."

A group of people set off from the Wangfu at Sishi, and rode fast and lightly to the East County of Quzhou.

Although Quzhou is a relatively affluent place, Quzhou is mountainous and the more remote suburbs are still poor.When a group of people crossed the mountain, it was already at noon when the sun was at its worst, and the mountain road was rough and difficult to walk. Near the foot of the mountain, they saw a well dug by villagers walking nearby, so they stopped to drink and rest.

The climate in this area is hot and dry, and the entire group of people are almost drenched in sweat.After Henry Zhang dismounted to let the horse drink water, he walked under the shade of a tree. Because of the scorching sun, his slightly red jade-like skin was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and the hair on his neck was all stuck to his neck with sweat superior.

Henry Zhang was only wearing men's casual clothes, and the rest of the guards were all wearing armor, so they were sweating profusely, but when they were resting, no one took off the armor, they just used the cloth hanging by the saddle to casually Wipe away the sweat.

Qi Zhu was sitting by the well, his inner clothes were already soaked with sweat, and he was fanning the wind.Bai Yu fetched a pot of water from the well, walked over and handed it to him: "Master Hou, drink some water."

"Thank you." Qi Zhu took the kettle, "How far is it?"

"There are still ten miles to go."

Xu is that the weather is too hot, Henry Zhang's rare expression is a little irritable, he stands the sword on the ground, his forehead and palms are full of sweat.After resting for a quarter of an hour, Henry Zhang got up and said, "Continue on your way."

At this moment, everyone suddenly heard that at this moment when they were bending, there seemed to be a faint cry from the other side of the mountain road. Bai Yu and other guards immediately drew their swords and looked at Henry Zhang, and Henry Zhang moved towards them Lifting their chins slightly, they quickly mounted their horses and galloped towards the place where the voice came from.

Qi Zhu frowned and said, "What happened?"

Xiao Yangyue: "Master Hou, get on the horse."

At this time, on the other side of the mountain road, two plainly dressed country men and women were surrounded by five or six masked bandits. endless wife.

The leading bandit had already snatched the couple's package, but it contained only a few slings of copper coins and a few pieces of cornbread. The bandit picked up a shiny saber and shouted rudely, "What else is worth anything?" Take everything out!"

The woman's bun was all loose, and she was begging for mercy, but the bandit directly pulled her hair, raised her hand and slapped her twice.

The woman's husband was so angry that his eyes were red, and he rushed forward to fight these thieves, but he was kicked on the chest again, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. Man is dying.

The woman was weeping, knelt on the ground and kowtowed her head, muttering: "Heaven, earth, yellow, everything is bright, golden scales, treasure python, Moluo Daxian... I beg the god to show her spirit and save my disciple! Save my disciple!"

A bandit picked the woman up from the ground and scolded: "Country woman, muttering something, since you have no money, then take off your clothes and give me a little fun!"

The woman screamed and cried bitterly, at this moment, a sound of horseshoes sounded from behind the group of people, the bandit turned his head, and before he could see who was coming, he was kicked and hit the tree.

Bai Yu rescued the woman, and the rest of the duckweed pavilion guards knocked down the bandits to the ground in an instant, pressing their shoulders to hold them down.

The village man and the woman stared at them blankly, then ignored the wounds on their bodies, knelt down tremblingly, and shouted gratefully for the savior.

Henry Zhang and Qi Zhu arrived on horseback, and Bai Yu immediately stepped forward and asked the pavilion master what to do.Henry Zhangyue looked at the bandit who was still struggling and cursing on the ground with slightly cold eyes, and said expressionlessly: "Tie it up, and hand it over to the government after you go down the mountain."

"Yes!"

The couple who were still kneeling on the ground raised their heads, the sun was dazzling at noon, and in a trance, they only saw two people in fine clothes riding on horses, one looked like a god in the sky, the other looked like a fairy in a painting, just like The Bodhisattva who came to the world.

The man stretched out his hand tremblingly, then withdrew his hand as if he could not be profane, and said excitedly, "It's the Great Immortal... The Great Immortal has manifested! The Great Immortal has heard the disciple's prayer and manifested!"

Qi Zhu and Henry Zhang looked at each other, and they both read a bit of surprise from each other's eyes.The guards at the side knocked out the thieves one by one and tied them up one by one, then helped them up from the ground to appease their frightened emotions, and then explained to them that they were from the government.

Only then did the couple know that Qi Zhu and Xiao Yangyue, two god-like figures, turned out to be the adults of the government.Despite this, the couple still seem to have no doubts about the Great Immortal's apparition, and they regard their appearance as a miracle of the Great Immortal's apparition.

The couple still had injuries, and it was not suitable to bask in the sun. Two guards helped the couple to a cool place in the woods, let them sit on a stone, and bandaged their wounds with cloth.

After the couple thanked them, the first thing they did was to close their eyes and put their hands together in prayer. They stretched out their arms towards the sky, chanting about "heaven and earth", "brightness" and "Moluo Daxian" in their mouths, with extremely devout expressions .

These two people were actually followers of the Moro Sect.

Qi Zhuzheng was thinking about how to find out the details of the Moro religion, and now they could meet two Moro religion followers, it really took no effort at all.

Qi Zhu: "Where are you two going? What are you going to do?"

The husband and wife looked at each other, as if they were unwilling to answer this question, and finally the villager said earnestly: "My lord, Xiaomin and Zhuojing are going to pay homage to the Great Immortal, but...Xiaomin and Zhuojing must abide by the disciples in the teaching. As a rule, don't talk too much with outsiders."

Qi Zhu rolled his eyes, leaned slightly, and whispered to the two of them: "Heaven, earth, yellow, everything is bright, the golden-scaled treasure python, Immortal Mara... To tell you the truth, I also serve Immortal Moro."

When the couple heard this, their expressions suddenly became surprised. Qi Zhu raised his finger at them, signaling to keep quiet.The husband and wife are very devout towards the Great Immortal, and after listening to Qi Zhu's religious words that they recited and memorized casually, they have already believed so much.

The villager quickly whispered: "Sir, are you also a disciple of the Great Immortal?"

Qi Zhu: "Don't dare to be an official. I have been enshrining the Great Immortal for a short time, so I dare not call myself a disciple."

These words seemed to reach the heart of the couple, and they said yes again and again, the villager excitedly said: "Your Excellency also enshrines the Great Immortal, and just now I was able to meet you in a dangerous situation. Your kindness, Xiaomin will never forget it!"

Xiao Yangyue stood aside holding the sword, seeing Qi Zhu and the two couples muttering something, frowning slightly.

Qi Zhu: "There is one more thing. In fact, that official official is not very ordinary. He also believes in Moluo Daxian, and his cultivation level is not low. Now he has been awarded the title of "Jade Yan Xianjun"."

The couple were taken aback, just now they thought that Qi Zhu and Xiao Yangyue seemed to be heavenly beings, but now they heard Qi Zhu say that Xiao Yangyue is an immortal under the Great Immortal Throne, and they were even more frightened.

The villager whispered: "That lord...is he really the Immortal Lord under the Great Immortal Throne?"

"Exactly." Qi Zhu replied, "Look at the appearance of the adult, if it is not the fairy king in the sky, how can there be such a face in the world? That's why he is called 'Jade Yan Xianjun'. The fairy king has important things ordered by the great fairy, so he is here. I have to conceal my identity, and the two of you must not publicize it."

The two couples nodded again and again, and they didn't dare to look directly at Henry Zhang's face, for fear of blaspheming the fairy.

"Since I met you two today, it must have been arranged by the Great Immortal." Qi Zhudao, "You don't need to hide anything. If you want anything, just talk to me and the Immortal, and the Immortal will definitely satisfy the two of you." Wish."
