Chapter Fifty-Four: A Mouthful (Unity)

Now that she knew the principle, Yang Gongjing began to make arrangements and asked people to use ten iron nails to set up a wind-fixing bureau around them. Without the stimulation of the wind, these ghost sutras would not be able to make a sound.

A group of government officials began various violent demolitions, looking for the fragments of the ghost scripture, intending to collect them and bring them back to the capital as evidence.

Then everyone went to the Buddhist hall at the back.

The Buddhist temple has collapsed, and Monk Huiyuan and the others were all buried underneath.

Under Yang Gongjing's instructions, everyone began to dig through the rubble and dig out the bodies underneath.

Some of the corpses were in good condition, while others had been smashed beyond recognition.

Xu Tong asked the government officials to carry them carefully, trying to carry out every corpse intact.

Fortunately, the weather is cold now and the corpses are not very decomposed, otherwise the smell alone would be unpleasant enough.

It is easy to see from the expressions on the corpses' faces that these people did not understand what happened until they died.

He died peacefully and calmly.

"Oh, what a pity!"

Li Xi stood aside and couldn't help but sigh when he saw the corpses of the Zhu brothers. In the eyes of everyone, they thought he felt sorry for the death of the Zhu brothers.

But Xu Tong knew that what he regretted was that he could not kill the Zhu brothers with his own hands.

"Hey, even if he dies, he can't be considered a hero. What's the pity!"

The government officials on the side curled their lips and said with disapproval, obviously not optimistic about the Zhu brothers and others.

These people are all masters with some reputation in the world.

There are many people among them who have top secret skills. Even if they are not Zhao Xusen's opponent, if they really have to run for their lives, they may not have no chance of survival.

It's just that they died in a confused state. After listening to Yang Gongjing's explanation, everyone understood the principles of the Ghost Sutra, so they couldn't help but feel that it was so simple.

It is natural to have some contempt for these people.

But if you think about it from another person's perspective, if it were someone else who came here and was disturbed by the Ghost Sutra, they would probably die even worse than them.

Xu Tong couldn't help but remind himself that this place was still far away from the Age of Ending Law, but the insidious and cunning murderous techniques in the Age of Ending Law were probably even worse here.

If I hadn't just raised my Dark Physique to the full level, I would have been in trouble.

Yang Gongjing glanced at the corpses of these people and sighed: "Everyone, go on your way with peace of mind. Your names will be enshrined on the observatory by the Qintian Prison, and a five-year merit lamp will be lit for you."

After saying that, he took out the incense box from his pocket, took out three yellow incense sticks and stuck them on the ground.

As soon as Yang Gongjing said these words, Xu Tong clearly felt waves of fluctuations in the surrounding air, and took a look with the help of Mingyan Qimen.

I could vaguely see a few vague outlines on the ruins.

Seeing this, Xu Tong also took out a thick stack of money to guide the way, walked on the ruins and started to scatter coins.

Just like Bai Xue's guiding coins scattered in the air, Xu Tong could clearly feel the weak power integrating into his body. This was Yin De.

Yang Gongjing gave Xu Tong a strange look, but didn't say anything, sighed and turned around to leave.

Li Xi and others followed behind and originally called Xu Tong to leave together, but Xu Tong had other plans and was waiting here.

Probably waited for another stick of incense.

The corpses were probably almost dug out, but Xu Tong insisted that there was one corpse left and asked the officers to continue digging.

It is winter now, and it is freezing cold in the mountains. The guards are covered in sweat from digging, and when the cool breeze blows, their bodies are bitingly cold.

It was inevitable that I would begin to complain in my heart.

But who is the official of the capital? If my own master can't afford to offend him, what can these little pawns do?

While digging, a police officer suddenly found something. He looked down and saw that it was a bloody palm. He was about to shout that he had found it.

His eyes suddenly noticed that there was a large golden ring on this hand.

"Gold!"

The officer immediately shut his mouth, squatted down slowly, looked around to make sure no one was paying attention, then calmly reached down and grabbed the gold piece, just as he was about to break it off.

His wrist suddenly tightened, as if he had been caught by something. The officer's heart skipped a beat, and his heart began to beat.

He hurriedly wanted to pull his hand out, but who knew that no matter how he pulled it out, the lower arm would be like an iron hoop. Instead of pulling it out, it would become tighter and tighter.

"Sandengzi, what are you doing lying there?"

When several officers behind him saw him lying motionless, they stepped forward to see what was going on. Santengzi wanted to call for help, but was afraid that they would find the gold ring.

In the struggle, he gritted his teeth and pulled hard a few times, only to feel something bite his hand, causing burning pain.

But this time he felt the iron band on his wrist loosen, and he pulled his arm out with a strong tug. At the same time, he saw the big gold ring on his hand and quickly put it into his arms.

"Here it is, here it is!"

Santengzi ignored the wounds on his hands and hurriedly turned around and shouted to his companions. The other officers rushed over to take a look and found the last body underneath.

After several people worked together to dig through it, they lifted out the body.

Xu Tong came over and took a look. Yes, it was Monk Huiyuan. The reason why he stayed was to find the body of Monk Huiyuan, the half-step master. For this reason alone, the body was worth a lot of money.

I walked up and took a closer look. After so many days, the body was not rotten at all. It was indeed a half-step master.

"Sir, the bodies have been dug out. Should we burn them on the spot, or..."

Sanbengzi came forward and asked.

Xu Tong glanced at him and saw Santengzi's eyes immediately dodge and look aside. Seeing this, Xu Tong couldn't help but be a little suspicious, wondering what was in this guy's eyes.

He shook his head: "You go down the mountain, I will take care of the body."

"ah??"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, wondering what the lord was having.

However, they were just small government servants, so naturally they didn't dare to ask any more questions, especially when Santengzi heard that he could leave, they agreed repeatedly and called on all the brothers to hurry down the mountain.

"Wait!"

At this time, Xu Tong suddenly shouted, Santengzi's feet sank, and he turned around carefully: "Sir, is there anything else?"

Seeing the guilty look on San Bengzi's face, Xu Tong couldn't help but look at this guy up and down, and looked at Qimen with his life-turning eyes. He saw that there was actually a murderous knife in the luck above San Bengzi's head, which was disappearing and appearing in his heart.

I knew this guy must be hiding something from me.

After thinking for a moment, he grinned and said: "Thank you for your hard work, brothers. Take this money and go down the mountain to find a place to eat and drink well. Don't freeze your body."

After saying that, he took out a banknote and threw it to Sanbengzi.

Sanbengzi took it and took a look, oh, one hundred taels, and his eyes immediately went straight.

With just this one banknote, they would never be able to earn so much money in half their lifetime.

When several officers saw this, they came forward, eager to kowtow to Xu Tong.

"By the way, there are many evil winds and evil spirits in the mountains. You have just been sweating profusely. It is a time when your body and energy are weak. Here are a few talismans. Take them with you and keep them carefully to ensure your safety."

Xu Tong took out a few more pieces of yellow paper. With a flick of his finger, the yellow paper turned into small triangular talismans and distributed them to everyone.

Although it was just a small trick, in the eyes of these police officers, it was already an incredible magical power. They were shocked and thought to themselves: "No wonder he is a master from the Qintian Prison. He is really extraordinary."

"Thank you, sir."

The few people collected the talismans and immediately turned around and went down the mountain. Before leaving, Santengzi did not forget to assure Xu Tong that they knew nothing about the body. Anyone who asked, said that the body had been burned.

Faced with Santengzi's cleverness, Xu Tongyi said sternly: "No need, these people were ordered to do errands, and they died here. Based on the principle of never abandoning or giving up, I want to perform a ritual for them."

That’s all.”

"Yes Yes Yes……"

Santengzi thought to himself: "You give me money, you are the uncle, whatever you say is true."

After all the guards had left, Xu Tong released Ji Xiang and asked him to go and watch the surrounding area. Then he turned around and started groping around the corpses.

Since they are all traveling in the world, they must carry all the truly valuable treasures with them.

After rummaging around, Xu Tong found a package of a drug called Mi Thirteen on the bodies of the Zhu brothers.

When you look at the effect, you can see that it's not just a drug, it also has an aphrodisiac effect.

Take this thing away...

Continuing to rummage, he found some hidden weapons on the bodies of the White Lotus cult members, all of which were ordinary goods. Xu Tong could not help but curse inwardly, they are a bunch of poor people.

However, he did find a simplified musical score on Gu Zhenbai's possession.

Thirteen White Lotus Swords.

When I put it into the prop book, I saw that it was actually a skill book, but it was different from prop cards like [Close Combat Technique] and [Five-Animal Grappling Hand].

You only need to spend thirty script points on your own to learn it directly and master it.

This thing is very cost-effective, it does not take up space in the prop book, and can be mastered immediately. Compared with the cost, the mere 30 points of the script is almost negligible.

No hesitation, just choose to study.

After the sword manual turned into a white light and disappeared, a whole set of sword techniques immediately appeared in Xu Tong's mind, as if a little person was practicing it repeatedly in his mind and then integrated it into his body.

I casually picked up a long sword from the pile of stones, and after a few tentative moves, I found a swordsmanship that was smooth and smooth, with no flaws at all.

Although the sword technique is simple and does not have any flashy moves, it should be the sword technique revised within the White Lotus Sect. After several rounds of polishing, each move pursues rapid and high explosive lethality.

This can be regarded as making up for some shortcomings in my own progress.

Keep touching the body.

A bottle of expired golden gun medicine...throw it away in the trash.

Two hammers weighing seventy kilograms...throw away the garbage.

An iron sword...throw it away!

Xu Tong fumbled around, and finally it was the long-awaited monk Huiyuan's turn.

"Hey, Master, I'm sorry!" Looking at the body of Monk Huiyuan, Xu Tong had been looking forward to it for a long time.

It is absolutely impossible to say that the Half-step Grandmaster has no treasures in him.

However, what disappointed Xu Tong was that this bald man didn't have any treasures on his body?

"You are so poor? Are you worthy of being called a master? Why don't you agree that I, the Buddha, will not save poor ghosts??"

Xu Tong cursed in his heart, but he did not give up because of this. He looked at the bald man and found that all the clothes on the monk were torn, but only the cassock was intact.

Just take off the cassock and throw it into the prop book. Hey, it's really a treasure.

【Wuchen cassock】

Passive skill 1: Buddha's light protection.

The wearer's physical damage is reduced by 15%, and magical damage is reduced by 10%.

Passive skill 2: Invulnerable to water and fire

The wearer is immune to ordinary fire and water spell damage.

Active skill 1: Da Luo Vajra Mantra

It consumes 10 script points. After activation, the Da Luo scriptures on the cassock are activated, causing great visual damage to the surrounding demons, evil spirits, and elves, causing them to be blinded for three minutes.

This thing is not bad, but it seems very useless when it needs to be worn on the body. I don’t believe in Buddhism, so wearing a cassock on the body seems nondescript.

Keep it, Xu Tong plans to give it to Gao Zhuo after he returns.

As for the corpse...

Except for a few that were smashed into disgrace, all others were packed up and thrown into the prop book by Xu Tong. After all, as promised, we must never abandon them.

"Headmaster, did that servant named San Bengzi just steal something from us?"

Seeing Xu Tong finish unpacking, Da Ya came forward and asked.

In her eyes, no matter what Sanbengzi took, it all belonged to them.

"No rush, let's go back and take a look first."

Xu Tong was not in a hurry to settle the score with San Bengzi. Instead, he planned to observe it for a while. San Bengzi must have stolen something, but he still didn't know what exactly he stole that caused him to suffer such a bloody disaster.

The amulet I just gave him was actually a folded paper man. No matter where this kid went tonight, I would be able to find his traces.

After returning to the Lianshan County Yamen, Yang Gongjing was already busy asking everyone to pack their luggage, and planned to set off early tomorrow morning. This time, she would not take the land route, but the water route.

Take a boat to Tianjin and then return directly to Beijing from Tianjin.

Xu Tong and the others had nothing to clean up, so they asked Huo Wuji and the others to stay and went shopping by themselves.

Because during this period, Yang Gongjing temporarily replaced the magistrate of Lianshan County, recruited a new group of officers, and vigorously rectified the unhealthy tendencies in Lianshan County, so that during this period, the county was better than when they first arrived.

Got a lot.

At least it's no longer like every house is shut up and lanterns are hung everywhere.

But even so, looking at it, the entire county still gives people a dilapidated state.

How dilapidated is it? Take any rural area near a fifth-tier city in reality and it will be more prosperous than this one.

The group of officers who had just returned couldn't wait to take leave after paying their jobs, and went out to share the money and drink.

Xu Tong didn't follow him and found a hotel far away to sit down.

There is nothing delicious in this remote and remote area, and the only dish to go with wine is a plate of peanuts.

Still the raw kind.

As for the situation on TV where people drink heavily and eat large bowls of meat, I have never encountered it.

As soon as I sat down, before I could call for help, I heard a curse coming from the side: "Bah, what kind of wine is this in your house? Even horse urine tastes better than this."

After saying that, there was a bang and the wine bottle was smashed to the ground.

The man smashed the wine bottle, threw down a piece of silver, and was about to leave. Xu Tong didn't have time to see the figure clearly, but when the man walked by, he suddenly raised his nose and turned around to look back.

"Headmaster! It's him!"

Da Ya screamed at the entrance of the hall, recognizing that the person just now was the mysterious master who had scared away Zhao Xusen before.

Xu Tong was startled when he heard this. He turned back to look at the broken wine bottle on the ground. He suddenly thought of something, stood up and followed him.

The figure in white clothes was walking swayingly on the street, smelling of alcohol, and everyone around him couldn't dodge him when he saw it.

After the other party took a few steps, he glanced back sideways and said, "Why, you are not a girl. Why are you following me? To repay my kindness, I will send you to be reincarnated now, and wait for you to come back in eighteen years' time when you are beautiful."

It’s not too late to say yes.”

Xu Tong laughed when he heard this, took out a rough ceramic bottle from the props book, and shook it in his hand: "My benefactor has great magical powers, so there is no need for me to repay my kindness. I just saw that my benefactor likes to drink, and I want my benefactor to have a taste.

What does this wine taste like?"

"liquor?"

The other party turned around, looked sideways at Xu Tong, stared at the wine bottle in his hand with a half-smile, and said disdainfully: "You deserve to know how to drink?"

"The tea cakes are fragrant when chewed, and there are thousands of words in the cup of wine. They all say that tea drinkers should be smart and rich. This is nonsense. Little do they know that everything in the world cannot be done without wine, and what is happening on the tea table is conspiracy and transaction

, that’s what’s going on at the wine table.”

Xu Tong sincerely handed over the wine bottle in his hand: "I don't understand this wine, but it doesn't matter. Find someone who understands it."

It seemed that he didn't expect that this little young man could actually say such a thing. For a moment, the man couldn't help but look at him again, took the bottle and sneered: "I don't believe it."

After saying that, he took off the cork of the wine, raised his head and drank hard.

As the wine entered his throat, the man's eyes suddenly went blank, and his face suddenly turned red. He stared at the bottle of wine in his hand in disbelief: "Does this wine have a name?"

"Fire-burning knife!"

Xu Tong looked at the man and said.

"Fire Shao Knife! Good! Good name, good wine!"

After the man finished speaking, his eyes were bloodshot, and he stared at Xu Tong and said, "There's more, let's have another bottle!"

Xu Tong took out another bottle from the props book, but instead of giving it to the man directly, he said, "Tell me your name first, and I will give you this bottle of wine."

Upon hearing this, the man's face suddenly turned cold, his eyes narrowed into a straight line, and Xu Tong could feel that the air flow around him became sluggish.

The man's eyes were like sharp knives pointed at him, making him feel like he was about to be split open.

There is no doubt that this is the unique aura of the Grand Master. In an instant, Xu Tong felt like he was breaking out in cold sweat.

He believed that as long as the man in front of him moved his fingers, he might be killed.

But at this moment, Xu Tong became more calm than ordinary people. He raised the bottle and said, "If you don't tell me, I will throw it away. You are missing a bottle of good wine. At worst, I will give you your life."

"Ah!"

The man seemed to be annoyed by Xu Tong's stubbornness and laughed, snatching the wine bottle from his hand: "You brat, you have the guts. That old guy fell into trouble in your hands, it's really not a loss."

After speaking, he looked at the bottle of wine in his hand. The man narrowed his eyelids and handed the wine to Xu Tong: "If you drink it up, I will tell you my name..."
