As soon as the Taoist said the words, everyone in the Yamen looked at Ling Xiao with different expressions.Many people were stunned when they heard the words, and then they subconsciously looked at the two of them and backed away again and again.

As for the mayor, his eyes were red at this time, and his expression became sad and crazy.He looked at Ling Xiao, didn't dare to go forward, just pointed at him, and said, "You... Immortal, you actually..."

Ling Xiao felt a little ridiculous and disgusted for a moment.

It was obvious that this group of people went to Qing Xuanzong to seek asylum, but when Qing Xuanzong came, they were suspicious and even pointed the source of the disaster at themselves.

"At the beginning, you were the one who came to the town to ask Qing Xuanzong for help, but I just arrived today, so you blame me?" Ling Xiao sneered. "If I really want to kill a few of you, do I need to use this shady method?"

The mayor dared not speak out, for fear that the cold fairy in front of him would strike out and kill him if he disagreed with him.

The Taoist glanced at the two of them, stroked his beard, smiled slowly, and said, "It's not what this fairy thought. It's just because the poor mana is weak, he can only suppress evil spirits, but I can't stop that evil spirit from killing people every day. Therefore, I asked Qing Xuanzong for help, because I want the immortal to help me, so that I can suppress this evil spirit together."

Ling Xiao seemed to have heard some joke, his eyes froze, and he said, "Why, do you still want me to help you?"

The Taoist continued to laugh and said, "However, this fairy is not only unable to help from the side, on the contrary, she questioned the poor Taoist and even wanted to tear up the runes that the poor Taoist had written with all her heart. The fairy is really..." As he said, He sighed.

Ling Xiao has never seen such a brazen person in his past and present lives.

He didn't say any more, as soon as he raised his hand, a wave of spiritual power accumulated in his palm.The spiritual power of the water system turned into a frost blade in his palm, and directly attacked the Taoist priest in front of him.

"Leave these words to you in the underworld." He said coldly.

Unexpectedly, the frost blade flew straight out, but quickly bounced on a barrier, immediately torn apart and dissipated in the air.And the Taoist priest stood still, still smiling and calm.

Ling Xiao frowned immediately.

In terms of cultivation, this Taoist priest is at most in the late stage of Foundation Establishment.One blow from him, not to mention blocking, was enough to kill him.

However, the barrier came and went without a trace, suddenly blocked his frost blade, and dissipated immediately, as if someone had cast an invisible barrier.

Qin Jiangli, who was standing next to him, frowned slightly when he saw this scene.

According to his memory of this incident, it was Qing Xuanzong who sent a few monks from the outer sect to exorcise the evil spirits.As a result, these monks lost to Xie Chong, and died here within a few days.But less than half of the people in Xianlai Town died, and Xie Chong disappeared after that, so the matter was left alone.

Now it seems that there is someone else behind this Taoist priest.This person protected the Taoist priest and secretly protected him...or in other words, he was secretly manipulating him, and through his hands and the trust of the townspeople, he refined the creatures in this town into this magic circle.

As for why other monks were invited... presumably, it was because of their usefulness.

Qin Jiangli tightened his cuffs silently.In his sleeve was the account book that he had stolen from the concierge. He had roughly arranged the registered residents on it in order just now, and compiled a strange rune.

Presumably, the discord among them lies in this rune.

Over there, the Taoist twirled his beard with a smile and said, "This fairy, don't get angry from embarrassment."

"You..." Ling Xiao clenched his fists in his sleeves.

He never hated his own weakness.In other words, no matter when, he is strong enough, so strong that he doesn't have to think about anything else, he can kill whoever he wants to kill.

He had never felt such a sense of helplessness.

Over there, the Taoist continued: "I only said that this monk is the variable, not that you are the culprit. Every rune has its own cause and effect, and maybe it is the cause and effect of you breaking this rune that caused the culprit. It's temporarily disabled."

Speaking of this, he said with a smile: "Why don't the poor give you another place to live?"

No one saw it. The Taoist priest's eyes froze and he looked somewhere in the yamen.But his gaze was caught by Qin Jiangli immediately, and he followed his gaze, looking in that direction.

There was nothingness like the night.

General Qin's conjecture was immediately confirmed.

Ling Xiao was feeling depressed right now, almost trembling with anger.He gritted his teeth and said a word after a while: "No need."

He had never felt so defeated.The culprit was right in front of him, but he couldn't kill him, and he couldn't catch him.For the first time, he agreed with what the system said - presumably in his previous life, he was able to get to that position, all relying on that heaven.

By now, he is not that god who is generally Ling Xiao, such a small case can make him in a dilemma.

But the Taoist said: "But, this immortal, every rune has a fixed number. Wherever you live, it is not safe, so it is better to be poor... I will calculate a hexagram for you and arrange a good Fengshui." residence?"

The tone was three points ironic, which made Ling Xiao angry for a while.

And at this moment, General Qin beside him left his mouth: "No need, this Taoist priest."

He said: "I am in Xianlai Town, and I happen to have a place to live. Although the shabby room is small, there are no other people there. Master and I can live there, without bothering you."

When Ling Xiao heard these words, he looked at Qin Jiangli in surprise.

Qin Jiangli went on to say: "I'll leave it to you to clean up the mess tonight. I'll come with Master tomorrow morning to think of a solution for you."

After finishing speaking, he saluted slightly, then turned sideways, and raised his hand to invite Ling Xiao to go first.

Ling Xiao's mind went blank, and he only saw the calmness and firmness in Qin Jiangli's eyes, which made him feel for a moment that the deadlock was completely under the control of the other party and he could resolve it.

His body acted before his brain, turned around and walked out of the Yamen in the direction Qin Jiangli invited him.

As soon as he went out, the night wind blew up, and the street outside the door was deserted and silent.

Qin Jiangli followed him out, and said softly, "Master, be careful where you step."

Ling Xiao frowned, and while walking in the direction he pointed, he said, "You are here...how can you have a place to live?"

Qin Jiangli said: "Before...the disciple had a benefactor here. The benefactor died suddenly, so the house was kept. The house is a bit dilapidated, but it can still accommodate us. Master, please don't dislike it."

Ling Xiao hummed, and was speechless for a while.

After a while, he said in a low voice: "Shikong has a whole body of cultivation, but is extremely incompetent. I think he is not worthy to be your master."

Qin Jiangli was stunned for a moment, then looked at Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao's side face is still cold and beautiful, and the faint arrogance between the brows is still engraved in his bones.He didn't even turn his head when he spoke, his tone was cold and clear, and his expression was as if nothing had happened.

But Qin Jiangli vaguely noticed that there was a bit of annoyance and confusion in his expression that was not easy to detect.

"...No." For some reason, he spoke comforting words. "It's that demon Taoist priest, who is used to playing tricks on people's hearts, and is very sinister and cunning."

Ling Xiao lowered his eyes, and his voice was still cold: "But I can't do anything about him. Now, I can only watch him do evil in front of me, but I can't stop him."

"Those townspeople..." Qin Jiangli paused and said. "It's what they voluntarily believe."

In his words, there is a complex and profound indifference.

People in the world are so ignorant, they only know how to believe what they see before their eyes, and they don't want to think about it.Therefore, they believe in the good people they think, and they will kill the bad people they think they are.

Therefore, when I was five or six years old, I was kicked out of the village by the whole village for an unreasonable reason.Since then, he has wandered so many places, and he has seen too much warmth and coldness in the world.

He knows that people in the world are like ants, there are countless, and they are the most humble and worthless.Their life and death will not cause any waves.

However, Ling Xiao shook his head.

"The world is stupid, but I am not stupid," he said.

I think back then, he was the common master of all things in the world.He rules all beings, but also has the obligation to protect them.

Even if it is reduced to what it is now, it is still the original Ling Xiao.He couldn't see these dark discords before, but now he sees them, if he lets them go, then he is willing to be mediocre and depraved, and it also confirms what the system said that day, if he is not blessed by heaven, he is nothing.

impossible.

Qin Jiangli looked at him with a stagnant expression.

Then, he heard Ling Xiao say lightly: "Even if this is the case, I will take care of it. He is doing evil in front of my eyes, so I don't believe that Ling Xiao can't take care of him."

The stagnant emotions in Qin Jiangli's eyes melted like spring water, and his words became a warm current, gurgling into his dark and rotten heart.

Yes, this Ling Xiao is different.

He squeezed the account book in his hand and whispered in his heart.

In this life, with the existence of this person in front of her, she will definitely not repeat the same mistakes.

He said softly: "The disciple must follow the master and eradicate the evil spirits together."

Ling Xiao hummed and said no more.

General Qin continued to calculate in his heart. If there were no accidents, based on the formation he could draw at hand, it would not be difficult to find the location of the formation.The eye of the formation has always been the place where the energy absorbed by the formation gathers, and it is also the weakest place.It must not be difficult to find there and destroy it.

Thinking like this, he led Ling Xiao to stop in front of a small, low and narrow house.

The roof is covered with thin thatch, the beams are crumbling, and the whole house stands crookedly.

This was the old beggar's home.

Ling Xiao looked at the house and didn't speak for a long time.

"Master... please?" Qin Jiangli stood aside, feeling a little shy for a while.

After a while, Ling Xiao looked at him and confirmed.

"...Is this a place where people live?"

The author has something to say: Qin Jiangli: Master, I have a house, let's live in my house!

Ling Xiao: Are you a house?

Qin Jiangli: Yes!

Ling Xiao: ... poor man, don't marry anymore.
