The mountain where we are hiding is called Wuzhao Mountain.
When Qin Shaoyou and the others rushed to the mountain, Qin Qiaoer, Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others had already arrived here safely, protecting the monk, and joined Su Jianqing, Su Tingyu and others who had come earlier.
Even the monks who were in slightly better condition helped to check the body and mind of the unconscious officials, and discussed the treatment plan together.
Qin Shaoyou saw that everyone was here, no one was missing, and the last worry in his heart was relieved.
Immediately, he urged Qin Buruo and Qin Qiaoer to return to the city.
"Eldest sister, sixth sister, you should return to the city immediately.
Emperor Jianwu was a suspicious person by nature. He was currently busy chasing down Monk "See You Tomorrow" and Wang Jinzhong, and recovering the bronze pillar "Immortal Book" and sacrifices. He couldn't care about other things for the time being.
But once he comes to his senses, he will definitely send someone to check you two.
If you two were not in the city, he would have discovered the truth.
When we arrived just now, we found that many people from the Editorial Factory and the Demon Suppression Department were out of the city searching for the whereabouts of Monk 'See You Tomorrow' and Wang Jinzhong. You can just take this opportunity to sneak back.
I believe that the defenders in the city are guarding against someone taking the opportunity to sneak out of the city, and they never thought that someone would run back."
Qin Qiaoer and Qin Buruo both knew very well that Emperor Jianwu was indeed cunning and suspicious, and Qin Shaoyou's speculation was not without purpose.
They said nothing and immediately prepared to return to the capital.
After hearing about this incident, Master Zhang, Master Suquan and other monks gathered around them and took out their protective treasures and handed them to them.
One is to protect their safety when they return, and the other is that these treasures can protect their minds and prevent them from being controlled by people using enchantment techniques, telling the true story of tonight.
When leaving, Qin Qiaoer seriously told Qin Shaoyou that if anything happens, he must communicate with them in time.
Qin Shaoyou asked Cai Guizhong to send his subordinates to escort Qin Qiaoer and Qin Buruo back to the city, and also provide them with dispatches in case of emergencies.
After sending away the eldest sister and the sixth sister, Qin Shaoyou took the statue of Jiutiandang Mo Patriarch out of the bamboo basket and respectfully offered a stick of incense to the Patriarch.
Not only was he thanking the Patriarch for his help, but he also asked the Patriarch not to be angry or to hold grudges for his previous minor rudeness.
"I admit, I yelled a little too loudly just now, and I went a little too far. Grandmaster, you have a lot, so please forgive me..."
Qin Shaoyou muttered something and his attitude was very sincere.
Cui Youyou, who was bragging about his performance to Master Zhang next to him, saw this scene and couldn't help but sneer in his heart: Why are you so cowardly? Why don't you dare to fight with the ancestor?
As for Mr. Zhang, he was so dizzy from what he was saying in his ears that if he hadn't recovered his strength, he would have taken off his belt and tied him to a crooked tree, causing Tian Lei to give him a severe lesson.
What Senior Brother Cui doesn't know is that although Qin Shaoyou's apology seems sincere, if he encounters a similar situation again, Qin Shaoyou will still throw out the statue of the Patriarch without hesitation and let the Patriarch fight against those powerful characters.
, and he hid in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to make a sneak attack.
"After all, I am just a cook, so what do I know about fighting? I believe that Grandmaster will understand me."
After offering the incense and turning around, Qin Shaoyou thought this in his heart.
Then he called Gunshan Lord and ordered: "Old Gun, see if you can use your magical power to control earth and stone to build a few temporary small temples around here."
Gunshan Jun first patted his furry chest and said, "No problem," and then asked curiously: "Sir, what do you want from the small temple?"
"I'm thinking that here we can't just have the Confucius Temple and the City God's Temple, but we should also build a temple for the Patriarch, Lingguan and Wei Tuo to facilitate the offering of incense." Qin Shaoyou said.
Lord Gunshan suddenly realized: "I understand. Your Excellency wants to build a temple to thank all the gods for their help."
"Ah, yes, that's what I thought."
Qin Shaoyou nodded repeatedly. He would not tell Lord Gunshan that these temporary temples were built just to add a few more buffs.
By the way, it also makes all the gods and bodhisattvas have a sense of competition. Don't be like a certain patriarch who had to throw the statues out before they would appear.
To be a god, you must also have subjective initiative and actively help believers and disciples discover and solve problems.
For example, Master's attitude towards Xiaobao is very worthy of learning from a certain ancestor.
Just when Qin Shaoyou and Gunshan Jun were busy building a temporary small temple for Jiutian Demon Patriarch, Lingguan, Wei Tuo Bodhisattva and others in the mountain.
In the capital, within the imperial city.
Emperor Jianwu looked gloomy as he listened to the reports from the Demon Suppression Department, the Editing Department and other yamen.
"Are you saying that there are only a few dozen Black Lotus cult demons surrounding the imperial city, and the rest are all paper figures and illusions?"
Emperor Jianwu was sitting on the high platform, his voice was cold and filled with murderous intent.
"yes……"
Several officials sent by the yamen to report the situation all shuddered, but had to answer.
After Emperor Jianwu was silent for a moment, he sneered.
"Okay, the defenders of the Imperial City of Daxia were actually frightened by a bunch of paper people and illusions, saying that a large army was besieging the city. If we really want to wait until a large army besieged the city, I don't know what you would do? Or you could directly turn against me and kill me.
Will this emperor take it and present it in front of the army?"
After hearing Emperor Jianwu's strange words, several imperial city guards fell to their knees in a hurry, trembling, and wanted to explain, but were forcibly interrupted by Emperor Jianwu with a wave of his hand.
"I don't want to hear your nonsense!"
Emperor Jianwu ignored them and just thought quickly in his heart:
"Although the spread of the Black Lotus Sect is explicitly prohibited in this capital city, due to my private connivance, the number of Black Lotus Sect followers is not large, even if not ten thousand, there are several thousand.
But tonight, only a few dozen Black Lotus followers responded to Lenjia's call and ran outside the imperial city to cause trouble.
In this way, Lianjia's influence in the Black Lotus Sect is not as great as I imagined. And I don't seem to be completely ignored..."
Thinking of this, Emperor Jianwu felt somewhat regretful.
He felt that he shouldn't be so anxious, and before he understood the situation, he issued a decree to completely wipe out the Black Lotus Sect.
But the decree has been made, and it is not easy to go back and take it back now.
Moreover, the Black Lotus Sect has indeed experienced some signs of losing control due to its rapid development in recent years.
It is indeed time to kill this vicious dog and eat its meat.
Emperor Jianwu quickly adjusted his mentality.
This kind of organization that does dirty work will be destroyed if it is destroyed. If there is a need in the future, another one will be supported.
And he just took advantage of this opportunity to earn a wave of reputation in the court and among the people by eradicating the Black Lotus Sect.
It is also paving the way for yourself in advance.
If something goes wrong with the subsequent sacrifice, he can take advantage of the situation to create a wise king status, earn enough merit and the people's wishes, and let Qin Shaoyou make him a god.
That's right, although the monk "See You Tomorrow" ran away with the sacrifice, and that dog slave Wang Jinzhong also ran away with the copper pillar "Fairy Book", Emperor Jianwu still wanted to sacrifice.
Because the preliminary work has been done, the gods and gods in the blood moon also know that he is going to sacrifice.
If at this time, those pigeons in the Blood Moon who were crazy about criticizing the immortal gods were released, the consequences would not be as simple as losing the immortal magic.
It is very likely that Emperor Jianwu will also lose his mind and go crazy and turn into a monster.
But the sacrifices prepared now ran away, and Emperor Jianwu could only find new sacrifices.
The Black Lotus Sect is one of the new sacrifices he found.
Most of the people in the Black Lotus Sect are murderous and hold human lives in their hands, which is one of the favorite foods of the crazy group of immortal gods in the Blood Moon.
Cutting off the Black Lotus Sect would not only boost your reputation, but also fill the gap in sacrifices. It was a double kill, and Emperor Jianwu would not refuse.
Apart from the Black Lotus Sect, the war over Qingtang is still going on. Emperor Jianwu had sent people there before, ostensibly to supervise the army, but in fact to collect sacrifices.
If these sacrifices were not enough, Emperor Jianwu even planned to offer a city or even a state city as a sacrifice!
As long as he could become an immortal, he would sacrifice the entire country, and Emperor Jianwu did not hesitate.
In Emperor Jianwu's mind, all countries and people were insignificant and exchangeable chips in front of his plan to become an immortal.
After sorting out these things, Emperor Jianwu once again ordered all the yamen to continue to hunt down the Black Lotus Sect. They must increase their efforts to cut off and kill all the demons of the Black Lotus Sect as soon as possible so that he can have more sacrifices.
After a pause, Emperor Jianwu thought of another thing.
"Demon Suppression Department, you send a few people to work hard to bring Qin Shaoyou back to me. Tell him that there is no need to go to Jiangnan. I have other important errands to entrust to him..."
