Chapter 267: Vixen
Assuming that the existence of a demon is established and true, then this matter must be reported to the court. However, before that, some matters related to the emergence of the demon must be investigated first.
Otherwise, if he reports false information to His Majesty, he might as well stop doing the job of Jinyiwei.
And this matter is related to the illusory demon.
It's really too mysterious.
This matter must be dealt with very carefully.
Lu Bing continued to ask about Wei Zhongxian and said, "Can you find out from that person when the big demon emerged from the ground?"
As for the records of 'demon', Lu Bing had only seen it in some anecdotal records. It was really hard to believe that such a thing actually existed in this world.
If Zhao Changqing was in the world in his previous life, his demeanor would definitely change when he heard the word "demon".
But this world is different.
After all, this is a world of high martial arts where one can practice martial arts.
Not only did the word ‘demon’ not make them change their minds, but they also had some vague expectations.
Who in this life doesn’t want to do a great deed of tearing apart a giant demon and being praised by all people?
Moreover, demons are not necessarily more powerful than humans.
Because all animals and plants that become spirits must first transform into humans in order to practice faster. This means that demons imitate humans. If you think about it, there is nothing to be afraid of.
Moreover, how was the big demon in the tomb imprisoned?
The story says that it was sealed by the sages.
Throughout the ages, what can be called a sage?
The answer is that only deceased 'people' who have made contributions to the human race can be called sages.
Even the gods and Buddhas in the sky are not qualified to be called sages by the human race.
This is a respectful title only given to ancestors.
Wei Zhongxian responded to Lu Bing's words and said: "The Jianghu disciple said that he had no way of knowing exactly when the big demon emerged from the earth. But it is certain that the time when the big demon appeared was very recently.
He just came with the master to increase his knowledge, and he learned very little in detail."
Lu Bing nodded when he heard the sound. He was about to ask a question when he heard his subordinate report: "Master Qi, there are masters competing in the city, and many warriors are watching."
After hearing the news, he glanced at Wei Zhongxian and said: "You have been targeted by Jianghu forces now. For the sake of safety and not to affect His Majesty's plan, you should stay quietly in the secret room to recuperate!"
Wei Zhongxian nodded and said: "That's very good. We would like to thank Commander Lu."
I didn't mention that subtitle, because I was really afraid that Lu Bing would feel resentful.
After all, now that you are living under someone else's roof, you can do whatever they say on their territory.
Oddly enough, Dongchang was established a few months earlier than Jinyiwei, but Jinyiwei's power developed faster than Dongchang.
And I just can't find any reason.
Dongchang is declining day by day, but Jinyiwei is getting stronger and stronger day by day.
Isn't it the reason why people are more irritating than others?
Later, Wei Zhongxian made a bold guess.
The reason why Jinyiwei has developed so fast is absolutely inseparable from one person, and that is Jia Xu.
Maybe the Commander of the Imperial Guard is smarter and more powerful than our Commander-in-Chief of Dongchang?
Speaking of Lu Bing's side, after leaving the secret room, he came to the highest building of Fengyue Tower and saw two figures standing on the Lingzhou city wall.
He didn't go to take a closer look.
He asked his subordinates to go to the top of the city to watch.
In extraordinary times, as the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, it is better for me to be cautious.
The battle between the two was about to break out. The fight on the city wall was dazzling and they showed off various skills. In the end, one person fled and the other pursued them fiercely. But in the end it seemed that the Beiliang Iron Cavalry came forward and decisively stopped the fight.
However, Lu Bing saw some clues from the person who fled. It seemed like she had a tail behind her?
If I had known earlier, I would have followed the Taoist sect and learned magical powers, such as clairvoyance and ears, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to see clearly at this time, right?
However, fortunately, I sent my subordinates to go to the city gate to see what was going on.
After a while, the subordinate came back.
He looked frightened and frightened, and was gasping for air, as if he had been frightened.
Lu Bing quickly asked: "What happened?"
In his haste, the subordinate only said one sentence: "That white fox-faced young master is a monster!"
"Is it a demon?" Lu Bing became interested in this matter, and then asked: "What exactly happened? Tell me exactly."
After taking a large sip of tea, the subordinate calmed down and said with lingering fear: "Standing on top of the city to duel was an old Taoist with a white fox-faced man. Later, the old Taoist said that the white fox-faced man was a demon, and the white fox-faced man refused to recognize him.
Then the two started fighting, but Bai Hulian was no match for the old Taoist priest. One of the old Taoist priest's magic weapons, which seemed to be called the Qiankun Bagua Mirror, revealed his true form, revealing two or three tails. It was too chaotic at the time, and his subordinates didn't see it.
It's clear, but what is certain is that there is indeed a tail exposed.
The warriors all shouted at Bai Hulian to kill her. At this critical moment, Beiliang Iron Cavalry came, captured Bai Hulian and sent her to Beiliang Prince's Mansion. This is what happened.
There are really demons in this world! By the way, that old Taoist priest called Bai Hulian a vixen."
"Fox spirit? Qingqiu and the big demon? What kind of close connection are there?" Lu Bing was extremely shocked.
He also saw several tail-shaped things appearing behind the fleeing man.
Combined with what his subordinates said, it seems that this is most likely true.
I didn’t expect that there really are monsters in this world!
Moreover, a few days ago, I heard one of my subordinates here say that the appearance and characteristics of the white fox face particularly echoed the appearance of a fox demon drawn in an ancient book that transformed into a human form.
Coupled with what Wei Zhongxian said, this matter is probably true.
However, let’s not worry about the authenticity for now.
Based on the information I got, I speculated that the white fox face came from Qingqiu, and the demon who was imprisoned in the tomb by the ancient human sages was also said to come from Qingqiu, and both were vixens. In this way, everything matched up.
But why is this such a coincidence?
It still requires careful observation for a period of time.
However, I can temporarily inform Your Majesty of what happened here.
If it is true that there is a demon, then the sooner the court knows the news, the better.
Thinking of this, he began to write quickly, planning to write a secret letter and send someone to tell His Majesty.
In the next few days, the people throughout Lingzhou City were discussing the scene on the top of the city. You can guess what they were talking about specifically.
Then, gradually, the entire Northern Liang began to talk about the "demon" thing.
The Prince of Beiliang was worried that this would cause unnecessary panic, so he sent out several announcements, spinning the story of a demon appearing on top of the city into a lie, saying that the so-called demon was just a person pretending to be one.
, its purpose is just to attract people’s attention.
Some people believed it.
They don't know the mystery and mystery in the world of warriors.
Therefore, it is difficult to understand such things as ‘demon’.
There should be no monsters in this world, right?
But those who believe are only in the minority.
Because these people are people who have read the books of sages. After being taught by sages, they have become wise and enlightened. They have their own opinions on judging things and will not follow the general trend and spread rumors.
But what about the ordinary people who have never read books?
I still like to spread this kind of thing.
They don't know the meaning of "The son does not speak strange words, his power confuses the gods".
Therefore, the fact that there is a demon appearing on the top of Lingzhou City is still widely spread among the people.
The secret letter written by Lu Bing to the Emperor of Wei finally reached the emperor's hands without any danger after floating around for more than half a month.
For this secret letter, whether it was Jin Yiwei, Dongchang, or other Wei forces, they all paid a heavy price, and there were probably dozens of casualties.
But no matter what, they must deliver this secret letter to His Majesty the Emperor.
When Zhao Changqing opened the secret letter, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
One can imagine what price certain forces and people paid for this secret letter.
