The battle just ended in a flash of lightning. He Dangguan was not panicked because Zhao Shui's figure disappeared. When he saw that the main hall of the shrine was crumbling, he immediately withdrew with his soldiers, and also took the unconscious county magistrate.
Tow away.
The officers who were traveling with them were so scared that they peed when they saw the giant rat that was uttering human words. Then the whole temple collapsed and sank. Some of the officers moved a little slower, screamed and then fell, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
sound.
Originally, there were many worshipers and people watching outside the shrine. They had just seen the Immortal Qianjin appear, and they were about to kneel down and worship. However, the situation suddenly changed dramatically. Thunder and fire fell from the sky, causing the entire shrine to collapse.
Seeing this situation, most of the people screamed and ran away, while a few people stood still in place with disbelief on their faces, as if it was not just the temple in front of them that collapsed.
He Dangguan and his people escaped from the temple safely, threw the Xinglong County Magistrate in full view, and slapped him in the face: "Dog Officer, wake up!"
The county magistrate was so excited that he opened his eyes and saw the huge pit with billowing smoke in front of him. His mouth was slightly open and he could not speak.
At this time, there was a cloud of dim smoke miasma spurting out from the big pit, with considerable momentum. He Dangguan could see clearly that this was clearly the rat demon using a spell to gather the smoke miasma, using it as a cover to allow him to emerge from the ground.
Escape.
He Dangguan turned around and shouted to the soldiers: "Remove the miasma!"
The soldiers all untied the pottery pots from their waists and threw them toward the pit. He Dangguan pulled out his long sword and swung it with all his strength. The sword energy screamed through the air, shattering the pottery pots and sprinkling out large splashes of spiritual light.
This time when we marched into Jianjia Pass, considering the poisonous miasma in the mountains and forests, Jin Dingsi prepared a large number of pills and pills to eliminate poisonous miasma snakes and insects.
These medicinal powders can not only be taken, but can also be dissolved into water and poured directly. The soldiers of the Wu Kui Army were previously trained to throw water bags from clay pots to deal with possible poisonous miasma in the future.
Today, he was going to deal with the rat demon. He Dangguan and the soldiers were prepared. Seeing that the poisonous miasma in the pit was firmly suppressed and did not spread with the wind and affect the surrounding areas, they felt slightly relieved.
Hedangguan did not pursue him into the pit and immediately ordered soldiers to guard the surrounding area.
"You have done a good job!" According to the prior arrangement, He Dangguan lifted up the county magistrate by the lapels of his clothes and shouted to the people around him: "Xinglong County magistrate colluded with evil spirits, set up obscene sacrifices, beguiled the people, and plundered people's wealth. Now,
The crime is conclusive, and everyone is a witness!
Zhenminghou's eyes were like lightning, and he was ordered to search for evil spirits. He was waiting for this beast to expose himself. Just now, the divine thunder from the sky was what Zhenminghou did when he came to the altar! If this rich immortal is really a righteous god with no fault of virtue, how can he do it?
Punishment from heaven?
In the past, evil spirits pretended to be gods, were good at causing misfortune and good fortune, and colluded with county magistrates, causing the local people to be implicated and waste money and silk for sacrifices. They deserve to be attacked by thunder and fire, and the temples will be punished by the power of God!"
He Dangguan raised the energy of luck, and the shout spread widely. When the people heard this, they were all shocked and horrified. Although they had never seen the true appearance of the evil spirit, they had just witnessed thunder and fire falling from the sky and the collapse of the shrine. Who else would it be?
I dare not openly claim that the Immortal Qianjin is the righteous god of worship.
"You, you..."
The Xinglong County Magistrate was shaken by the sound of drinking, his ears stung, his energy and blood surged, and he looked at He Dangguan with fear and anger, and his teeth trembled:
"Zhao, Zhao Shu has been killed, do you still want to continue to cause trouble?"
He Dangguan kept a straight face. He couldn't hold it back when he heard this. He laughed and said: "You have the guts to collude with evil spirits, but in the end you don't even know a thing about magic? Deacon Zhao, who is talking to you today, starts from the beginning.
It’s just a clone in the end! Deacon Zhao himself performed the ritual outside the city, otherwise where do you think the two thunders came from?”
The magistrate of Xinglong County began to look crazy: "You can't do this! Zhao Shu accepted a thousand taels of silver from me, which is not a good thing! At worst, if he is exposed in front of the king, you will all be buried with me."
"You want to die, but you take bribes from the government bank. Do you really think that Deacon Zhao has no way to deal with it?" He Dangguan said: "After you left the government office, a group of soldiers went to take over the county government treasury.
, guess what results will be found out then?"
Xinglong County Magistrate immediately broke into a cold sweat: "Are you kidding me?!"
"I'm giving you face by playing tricks on you!" He Dangguan asked the soldiers to tie up the county magistrate: "As Deacon Zhao, if it wasn't to lure the rat demon out, how could he have the leisure to set up a trap to play tricks on you? Let you raise money
Money and food are meant to give you the last chance, but if you didn’t take advantage of it, who can you blame?!”
"Let me go! My father-in-law is a big shot in Chongxuan Hall! You can't do this to me!" Xinglong County Magistrate yelled and struggled.
"Who pulled a sock? Stop his stinking mouth!" He Dangguan was quite impatient. If Zhao Shu hadn't warned him in advance not to hit him hard, he would have slapped him three hundred times.
"He Wei Zhang!" At this time, a soldier came quickly on horseback: "There are a large number of rats scurrying out of several wells and canals in the city, and there are several standing rat demons among them!"
"Sure enough!" He Dangguan was deeply impressed by Zhao Shu's clever calculation and immediately ordered: "According to the previous plan, we can only drive away the rats without stopping them, and force the rats out of Xinglong County. There will naturally be people outside to deal with them!"
"Got the order!"
He Dangguan took the Xinglong County Magistrate away, and the crowds surged on the street. Brother Yu, who was hiding in the crowd, lowered his bamboo hat. He had just witnessed the drastic changes inside and outside the temple, and whispered in his heart:
"I received news earlier that eight hundred elite soldiers were coming towards Xinglong County. Could they be used to deal with the rats that escaped from the city? I didn't expect that in just a few days, Zhao Shu would force the rat demon to death.
Running away in a panic is really not something to be underestimated!"
And when the second brother Yu thought about the thunder and fire that day, he couldn't help but feel a little awe: "The power of the thunder and fire punishment just now was majestic and restrained evil spirits. It doesn't look like it can be displayed by a greedy and lustful person. Could it be Zhang Li?"
Is there something wrong with what I know?"
With this in mind, Brother Yu quietly left the city. He did not chase the fleeing rats. These rats were all meant to distract the pursuers so that the rat demon leader could escape alone.
In any case, this rat demon has been causing trouble for a long time, and Brother Yu will definitely not let it go.
…
Zhao Shui was on a hill in the eastern suburbs of Xinglong County. He climbed up to the altar to perform the Dharma. He stepped forward and stepped forward, his eyes and hands changed. He exhaled the true energy, stored the spirit to push forward luck, drove the soldiers and horses on the altar, and mobilized the yin and yang of the heaven and earth.
The clouds then slowly swirled, accumulating the power of thunder.
Far away from the altar, Zhang Liwei was nervous. A few days ago, he was called to build the altar, and he was actually very dissatisfied with Zhao Shu. While digging soil outside the city, Zhang Liwei also encountered Yu who was quietly following him.
Second brother, told him about Zhao Shu taking bribes and recruiting prostitutes for fun.
But Brother Yu signaled Zhang Liwei to keep quiet for the time being. After all, Zhao Mi was a monk from Guanshi, and it was normal for him to collude with corrupt officials. There was really no need to expect too much. If he could really deal with the rat demon, he would end the trouble for the surrounding villages.
, then you might as well help him once.
When Zhang Liwei saw Zhao Shu performing Dharma on the altar again, he vaguely noticed that his aura was different from when he indulged in pleasure that night, but he couldn't tell the details clearly.
Looking at Xinglong County from a distance, two bolts of lightning struck from the sky one after another. Even though they were far apart, the sound of thunder could still be felt in the distance, which was a bit thrilling.
"Is it on fire?" Zhang Yanshou looked at the city from a distance and couldn't help but admire him: "This Immortal Zhao can call the wind and rain, he is really powerful!"
Guchi
Lieutenant Li also nodded slightly. He had contacts with Chiyun and was no stranger to magic. He knew that the ability to dispel thunder and lightning was rare even in Chiyun City, at least compared to his second brother.
Just can't do it.
In addition, Zhao Shu was able to summon the spirits and ghosts in the mountains to search for the mouse demon and finally determine the location of its lair. This alone made Li Wei understand what it meant to be an expert in this world.
It's no wonder that Yu Er Ge always advised him in the past that before Chi Yundu could do any big things, there were many capable people in Huaxu Kingdom, and rashly revealing himself would only attract crowds to attack.
Zhang Liwei was a little helpless. Unfortunately, his talent was limited. He had been practicing the exercises taught by his second brother for several years, but he had made no progress other than getting stronger and full of energy.
Thinking that Zhang Yanshou was born with good bones and muscles, if he could cultivate them well, he might be able to study immortal magic in Cangwu Ridge in the future. If Chiyun could have a few more monks who were comparable to Zhao Shu, he would not be deceived by the court of Huaxu Kingdom.
Government persecution.
"coming."
At this time, Zhao Shu said something on the altar, and Lieutenant Li cheered up. Next to him, Zhang Yanshou pointed to a shallow stream in the distance:
"Look! There's a big rat there!"
"What big rat? It's a rat demon!" Lieutenant said in a deep voice.
"It seems to be injured?" Zhang Yanshou watched the rat demon climb up the river bank with difficulty, leaving a trail of blood behind it.
"How can you not be injured after being hit by two thunderbolts?" Lieutenant Li pulled out the Huanshou sword and saw cinnabar inscriptions on both sides of the blade, causing a layer of white light to circulate on the edge of the blade.
Li Wei heard that this was a talisman made by the imperial Jinding Priest, and that the original creator was Zhao Shu. Li Wei and several others helped to protect the altar outside, and Zhao Shu lent them some talismans and wore charms for self-defense.
Lieutenant Li admitted that he was not a greedy person, but since he had the talisman in hand, he couldn't put it down.
On the other hand, the rat demon, which was originally covered in steel and iron skin, is now riddled with scars and mottled scorch marks. It can feel the evil energy of thunder attacking its body and is in agony. If it tries to use magic to escape, it will immediately cause injuries again.
Blood spurts.
"Damn, hateful!" The rat demon grinded his teeth and growled, cursing secretly in his heart: "Zhao Shu clearly set up a killing trap, deliberately causing me to reveal my energy, and then directly lowered the thunder. The altar was broken, which shocked my soul.
, so seriously injured.
Zhao Shu, I have written down today’s revenge! While I am recuperating for a while, I will definitely contact all my colleagues and old friends, as well as those old ghosts from Jiuli Kingdom who enjoy a good life, and together we will take action and cut you into pieces!
After I absorb all your brains, I will turn your skull into a wine glass!"
As soon as he finished cursing in his heart, the rat demon felt a burst of fresh air approaching him. He raised his head and saw Zhao Shu standing on the high altar, holding a token and staring at him seriously.
"Zhao Shu! How did you—"
The rat demon was horrified. He obviously let his little demons scatter and flee in order to escape, just to try to divert the opponent's men. How could Zhao Shu appear right in front of him?
"If you hadn't been struck by my thunderous arrows, you should have been able to use the earth's currents to use magic to escape. I don't think you would have taken this route." Zhao Shu's voice came from afar, and his tone was majestic: "But now your soul is frustrated, and your muscles and bones are damaged.
The internal organs are like being burned by fire, and even if you use magic to escape, you won't be able to go far. In addition, the original body is huge, so you are destined to have to escape through a wide waterway."
The rat demon couldn't believe what he said. Could it be that every step he took was part of Zhao Shu's plan?
"Zhao, Zhao... Immortal Chief!" The rat demon had a flash of inspiration, and he immediately curled up and bowed his head: "You are an ignorant demon, and if you offend the Immortal Chief's law, you deserve to die! I only hope that the Immortal Chief will take care of Xuanmen.
The thought of immortality and precious life is wide open. The demon is willing to swear an oath with his soul and serve the immortal from now on!"
Zhao Miao didn't answer, so the rat demon quickly added: "To be honest with the Immortal, I have a large amount of gold, silver, pearls and jade hidden elsewhere. I am willing to donate all of them to build the cave for the Immortal and provide a female musician to show my love!"
"Oh, it seems that you did send a mouse to peek into the inn that night." Zhao Miao's tone softened slightly.
The rat demon was startled at first, but he noticed that Zhao Mi's tone was softened, and he knew that there was a way to survive.
"Immortal! Don't let it go!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhang Liwei quickly spoke to dissuade him.
Zhao Shu did not answer, but looked at the rat demon and asked, "Should I call you True Lord Xu Ri, or Great Immortal Qianjin?"
"I've paid you three thousand to give me the name of the true king, the Great Immortal. In order to gain a foothold in the world, I had no choice but to act arrogantly and assume my name. Please forgive me, the Immortal!" The rat demon kowtowed repeatedly.
"Oh." Zhao Shu nodded slightly and said: "In this case, it is not necessary that the crime deserves death..."
Zhang Liwei outside the altar was very nervous. He had already planned to kill the rat demon with his own hands. Na Lao Sanqian breathed a sigh of relief and listened to Zhao Shuyan:
"You rats, you only have one death, how can you die ten thousand times?"
"you--"
Lao Sanqian was shocked to realize that something was wrong, but he had no time to react. The thunderous arrow was like a fierce star, falling suddenly!
The art of evil arrows was originally a thunder method, specially used to destroy temples and punish evil spirits. It has the power to destroy the soul and destroy the evil spirit of monsters.
This time, Zhao Shu did not just rely on the Qingxuan brush to collect Qi and condense evil spirits, but went to the altar to practice the technique, using the altar's soldiers and horses to activate the Yin and Yang Qi machine, and displayed a complete arrow evil technique, whose power was unstoppable.
There was a flash of lightning and thunder, and the surrounding sky and earth turned white, and the light was so dazzling that it was impossible to look at it.
When he opened his eyes again, Lao Sanqian's soul was gone, and he turned into a mass of charred corpses on the bank of the river, with green smoke curling up. He couldn't even express his sorrow and anger.
The reverberation of thunder spread to the distant sky, echoing vaguely in the wilderness. Seeing the power of thunder and arrows at such a close distance, Zhang Liwei and others were shocked to the spot, and their minds went blank.
Zhao Shu took great courage, first bowed to the sky and thanked him, then shook the copper bell on the table, like ringing gold to call back troops, recalling all the soldiers and horses in the altar, and the clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing the blue sky as before.
"Finally done."
Zhao Shu, who staggered out of the altar, was no longer serious. He sat down with a tired look on his face, waved his hand and said, "Liwei Zhang, I'd like to trouble you to see if the rat demon is dead or alive. If it's not dead, stab him more."
Seventy or eighty knives."
Zhang Liwei barely came back to his senses. Zhao Shu's method made him feel dazed. But when he saw the corpse of the rat demon, which was almost like charcoal, he quickly walked down the hill and stabbed it lightly with the talisman knife. The corpse of the rat demon was on the spot.
