After Qin Shaoyou and the others left the port in Haijin Town, they pretended to investigate the surrounding areas.
Although they didn't find any ghosts or monsters, they almost found the editor following them several times, which made these people break out in cold sweats.
The group of people in the editing factory didn't know that they had actually been exposed a long time ago.
The so-called 'almost' being discovered was simply an act put on by Qin Shaoyou and others in order to make the whole thing look more 'real' and 'reasonable'.
These people in the editing factory only thought that they had handled the situation properly and saved the day.
Everyone felt quite proud in their hearts.
As the night progressed, Qin Shaoyou and others ended their investigation and search and found a temple in the wild to rest.
It looked like they found this temple by chance.
But in fact, the terrain around the capital is all in the minds of Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai.
This temple is a Chenghuang Temple on the outskirts of Haijin Town.
Qin Shaoyou and the others' goal was here from the beginning. They just wanted to put on a show for the tail behind them, so they deliberately took a long trip outside.
Here in Haijin Town, there are many businesses and travelers. Even though this temple is located in the suburbs, it is still popular and not abandoned.
There were still several Taoists living in the temple, but when Qin Shaoyou and others knocked on the door, these Taoists did not dare to open the door.
Although they are Taoists, they have no cultivation and have never learned magic. They cannot determine whether the person knocking on the door in the middle of the night is a human, a ghost, a demon or a bandit. How can they dare to open the door easily?
With the strength of Qin Shaoyou and the others, it was easy to break in, but they didn't do that. Instead, they let Cui Yougui escape and opened the door from the inside.
This scene also frightened several Taoist priests who were woken up in the temple.
Qin Shaoyou entered the temple and saw the reactions of these people, so he encouraged [Qiao Tongue] to comfort him: "Don't be afraid, Taoist priests, we are the night watchmen of the Demon Suppression Department. We are performing tasks nearby. Seeing that it is dark, we come here to spend the night.
, and leave as soon as it gets dark.”
However, after learning the identities of Qin Shaoyou and others, the tension and fear on the faces of several Taoists did not diminish much.
In today's world, official officials are sometimes more ruthless than demons, ghosts, and bandits.
Seeing their reactions, Qin Shaoyou sighed lightly, said nothing more, and turned to look at Taoist Qiu Shi.
Taoist Master Qiu Shi understood this and immediately released the sleepy bugs, causing these Taoists to fall into a deep sleep.
Later, Su Jianqing would fall into a dream and create a memory for them. They witnessed every move of Qin Shaoyou and others in the temple while being nervous and uneasy. Finally, they fell asleep because they could not bear the sleepiness.
In this way, when they leave at dawn and the people from the editing factory come to investigate, they can also provide some intelligence clues to avoid suspicion in the editing factory.
Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others set up some simple restrictions and traps around the temple.
When the people from the editing factory followed and rushed to the vicinity of the Chenghuang Temple, they happened to see Zhu Xiucai, Monk Ma and others busy around the temple.
"It seems they plan to spend the night in this temple."
"It's time to spend the night." One person yawned and said, "They obviously traveled a long distance and arrived at Haijin Town at night. After landing, they didn't find a place to rest immediately. Instead, they worked hard for so long and were very energetic.
Is that so? No wonder you can climb from Xiaoqi to Qianhu at such a young age."
"This seems to be a city emperor temple? I heard that this kid Qin Shaoyou successfully consecrated a city emperor when he was in Yizhou. He came to live in this place. Doesn't he have some agenda?"
"What can he have? You have already said that Qin Shaoyou is the city emperor in Yizhou. How can the city emperor of Yizhou control Haijin Town? Besides, as long as we place close surveillance around, he really has any intention.
, and can be discovered immediately.”
This group of people discussed in a low voice for a few words, and then under the arrangement of the leading eunuch, they dispersed and hid in the surroundings, closely monitoring the Chenghuang Temple.
After Zhu Xiucai and Monk Ma set up the restrictions and traps, they returned to the temple and reported the situation they detected to Qin Shaoyou.
"Sir, the tail of the editing factory has arrived and is watching outside."
"Let them keep an eye on us so that we can have a good rest and see how long they can stay up by working overtime day and night."
Qin Shaoyou sneered and said nothing about the people in the editing factory outside the temple.
His talents such as [Wonderful Nose] and [Listening] have been activated to the maximum. The effect is even better for everyone in the editing factory outside the counter-monitoring. Every move of the other party is under the supervision of his ears and nose.
Qin Shaoyou walked to the statue of the city emperor, lit a stick of incense and inserted it into the incense burner.
Green smoke slowly rose and got into the nose of the statue of the city emperor.
After a while, the green smoke surged and turned into a small man as big as a palm.
It is exactly a smaller version of Cai Guizhong.
Seeing Qin Shaoyou and others, Cai Guizhong seemed very happy and quickly greeted him: "Sir, you are back. How was your journey?"
Qin Shaoyou nodded with a smile: "Everything went well on our journey. How is the situation over there?"
Cui Yougui also said anxiously: "Lao Cai, how is the situation of that old guy my master?"
Cai Guizhong first persuaded Mr. Qin: "Don't worry, sir, everything is fine here. Someone from the editing factory went into the mountain before and searched around but found nothing. No one has come since. Monks, Taoists and officials
Our situation is getting better day by day..."
After listening to his report, Qin Shaoyou felt relieved, but still warned: "Stay vigilant and don't take it lightly."
Cai Guizhong nodded and said: "Understood! Only by being careful can you make a thousand-year ship! I was also brought out by the adults. The concept of being cautious and prepared is deeply rooted in my heart."
Then he smiled and said to Cui Youhang: "Don't worry, Taoist Cui, Master Zhang is recovering very well. I believe it won't be long before he can completely get rid of the influence of the Chaos Fairy Book."
Cui Youyou breathed a sigh of relief, but said: "I didn't expect the old guy to recover quite well. Is this the so-called disaster of living for a thousand years?"
A strange expression flashed across Cai Guizhong's face, his head tilted slightly, as if he was listening to something.
After a while, he said with a bit of gloating: "Taoist Cui, Master Zhang asked me to tell you that he found several crooked-neck trees in good locations on the mountain. I believe they will be of great help to your practice of thunder.
.”
Cui Youguo's expression suddenly froze.
"Old...my master, can he hear what we are saying?"
"Yes." Cai Guizhong nodded and replied.
Cui Youshen's face turned green: "Lao Cai, you are not kind. Why didn't you tell me this kind of thing earlier?"
"You didn't even ask me." Cai Guizhong spread his hands.
Then he ignored Cui Yougui's complaints and explanations, and turned to Mr. Qin: "Sir, I have something to report to you. Emperor Jianwu sent someone to Yizhou to summon Li Shuibo and me to Beijing to say
Let us participate in the ceremony of sacrificing prisoners to the temple."
"Is there such a thing?"
Qin Shaoyou was originally watching Brother Cui's joke, but after hearing this, his expression instantly became serious.
