Chapter 111 Undercurrent surges, the young hero spares his life
"In the year of Renyin, there was a great epidemic in Leping, and hundreds of thousands of people died! The people were frightened, and the national movement was turbulent!"
"However, Emperor Li was very kind and courteous, and his slander was not allowed. In the past thirteen years, the weather has been smooth, the country is peaceful and the people are safe, and the great epidemic is really not unreasonable! Therefore, burning incense to pray to the gods, how can natural disasters befall Leping and the people be exposed to water and fire!"
"There is a spirit in the sky, in response to the Emperor's incense, so he sent divine soldiers to the epidemic area to kill the remaining evildoers in Leping. This is a man-made disaster and an unprovoked natural disaster! The epidemic has been cured and the world is at peace!"
The fifteen people wearing command arrows on the stage spoke in unison. Although their words were blurred, their voices were loud and clear.
The general meaning is that Emperor Dejing of Dali is very good, and God should not bring natural disasters, but Jiang Wuji turned into a divine weapon here and found the culprit of the plague, which was the Red Lotus Sect.
Therefore, the Leping epidemic was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.
It's all the Red Lotus Sect's fault...
Amidst the deafening cheers, Jiang Wuji finally understood why there was such a show.
"Brainwashing, this is a large-scale brainwashing."
Although I don’t know who the initiator is, it is definitely related to the imperial court, and the purpose of doing this cannot be to appease the people and stabilize the national destiny.
As for the truth, it is becoming less and less important. After this epidemic, Taoism is still the state religion of Dali.
Although Jiang Wuji could see the essence clearly through phenomena, he didn't take it seriously. However, this command arrow was indeed eye-opening.
But at this moment, Jiang Wuji's back felt a chill without warning! A kind of threat like a ray of light on his back made him feel that all the nerves in his body were tense instantly!
Looking back, there was a skinny old man wearing a bamboo hat in the crowd, staring directly at him!
"This guy wants to kill me!"
Although malice is a bit elusive, after becoming a seventh-grade golden elixir, Jiang Wuji can sometimes catch some of the malice hidden towards him!
After the old man in the bamboo hat was discovered, he showed no hesitation in showing two rows of yellow teeth, grinned at Jiang Wuji, then turned around and squeezed into the crowd to leave.
"You go back to the inn first!"
Jiang Wuji gave an order and chased the old man in the bamboo hat in the direction he left.
"Then the old man has never seen me before, why would he want to kill me?"
"Is it possible that he is a close associate of Murong Yue? Or... is he a demon from the Red Lotus Sect?"
Jiang Wuji kept pushing through the crowd with doubts, even if he knew there was danger, he didn't hesitate at all.
Instead of always being on guard against the opponent, it's better to take the initiative and kill if you can, and if you can't, let's talk about it later!
Since most people now gather in the center of the city, other places seem a bit withered and dead.
"Still want to run?"
Seeing the old man in a bamboo hat jumping onto the roof, Jiang Wuji immediately chased after him with both feet. At the same time, he also had a bright long knife in his hand. Once he had the chance, he would kill him!
After chasing him to the west side of the city wall, the old man wearing a bamboo hat actually climbed up the city wall as if he were walking on flat ground!
"snort."
Jiang Wuji snorted coldly and held a mottled Buddhist bell in his hand.
"Boom!"
The low bell rang, and the old man's feet were in the air, and he fell against the city wall like a kite with a broken string! Seeing this, Jiang Wuji immediately raised his knife and slashed away, and the energy in his body surged and roared like a big river!
When he was in danger, the old man opened his mouth and made a strange tone.
"Hey! It's dark when the sun sets in the west. Oh, it's dark!~"
"Are you asking God again?!" Jiang Wuji's expression condensed, and the Qi Yuan wrapped around the long knife suddenly became a little thicker!
However, unlike Liu Qinghua, the old man in front of him had already changed before he finished singing the lyrics.
Pieces of tiny scales grew out from under his skin. When the long knife fell, his right arm was completely covered by scales. The long knife wrapped in Qi Yuan could only bring up a spark.
"Snake scales?"
Seeing those tiny scales on the opponent's body, Jiang Wuji couldn't help but feel his scalp tightening.
"The Immortal Hall is originally a universe, with heaven, earth, and true body. The Immortal Hall is originally a mandala, and the mandala is divided into yin and yang! Old Immortal Family——"
As he shouted, the old man's original cloudy eyes turned into a pair of dark green vertical pupils, and the tip of his extended tongue forked like a snake, making a hissing sound.
The tiny snake scales covering the face glowed faintly in the night!
"My little kid is so ruthless. He just kills me without asking why. Tsk, tsk, tsk... I really almost fell into your trap."
The half-snake, half-human old man stared at Jiang Wuji with a sinister look, his back slightly bowed, like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity.
Although he had seen a lot of weird things, Jiang Wuji was still a little frightened at this time. Why do these guys have to treat the people they cultivate as human beings or ghosts?
Aren't Li Changfeng and Zhu Yao quite normal? Although one lacks love and the other lacks sorrow, at least they both still have their own personalities!
And at the moment when Jiang Wuji was lost in thought, the half-human, half-snake old man had already attacked. His scaly hands were like the claws of a wild beast, and he tore a hole in the invulnerable Taoist robe!
"go!"
Jiang Wuji took the opportunity to put some distance between him and threw the Brahma Bell out decisively. The Vishal Brahma Bell grew larger in mid-air, and the dark mouth of the bell shrouded the old man.
However, this attack method seemed a bit too rough, and the old man perfectly avoided the Brahma Bell with just a pause.
"Little baby, do you really think that I, Liu San, am a vegetarian?"
The old man who called himself Liu San jumped up on the Brahma Bell, and at this moment, several flying copper coins hit the Brahma Bell heavily.
"Boom! Boom, boom, boom!"
For a moment, the bells were ringing continuously, and Liu San, who was in the center of the sound wave, spurted out a mouthful of blood, and the blood in his body surged wildly, as if he was about to fly away three-dimensionally!
Just when he was holding back the surging blood energy and preparing for a quick fight, the long knife in Jiang Wuji's hand seemed to have become spiritual. After it was released from his hand, it actually came towards him and killed him!
Not only that, the few copper plates that had just struck the Brahma Bell floated up again, and then kept hitting the Brahma Bell, continuously emitting low-pitched bells!
"Control, control things? You actually know how to control things?!"
Liu San vomited blood continuously. Under the double attack of the bell and the long knife, he could only barely protect himself and could no longer pose any threat to Jiang Wuji.
At this time, Jiang Wuji seemed to be aloof from the incident, his bloodshot eyes showing ferocity and killing intent, constantly looking for an opportunity to kill him with one blow.
As for the origin of this old man, Jiang Wuji did not take the initiative to ask.
Because at this point, if the old man really wanted to beg for mercy, he would have said it without him asking.
So now for Jiang Wuji, any lines are redundant!
Soon, Liu San, who was shocked and bleeding from all his orifices, began to be unable to resist the attack of the long knife. The snake scales on his body exploded one after another, and his flesh and blood were blurred.
"Young Master, please show mercy, show mercy."
"I'm not here to kill you!"
"I'm here to invite you!"
Liu San finally began to beg for mercy, but unfortunately Jiang Wuji did not respond to him, because for those who want to kill him, these words are not worth stopping!
Without saying a word, Jiang Wuji used the Five Ghost Handling Technique to control the long knife and the copper plate and prepared to end Liu San's life.
But at this moment, a piece of white silk suddenly wrapped around Liu San's chest and abdomen and pulled him away!
Immediately afterwards, a clear sound like trickling spring water sounded.
"Young Master, please forgive others if you have to."
