Chapter 928: Chu Zhongwu, you are not trustworthy.
Before Chu Qianqiu came, he was still thinking about King Jing wooing the Minister of Punishment, thinking that he wanted to use him as an intermediary to infiltrate the six gates.
Now that I know this news, I suddenly understand.
It turns out that King Jing conspired with the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishment, and the real target was the death row inmates in the Prison of the Ministry of Punishment. Even some relatively minor criminals would soon be sentenced to death under their operation.
"It is naturally extremely difficult to extend people's lives. Even the immortals of the Zhenwu Sect have to refine elixirs to extend their lives for a period of time."
"But there are thousands of ways to shorten someone's life."
Zheng Shangshu smiled and said.
"Zheng Shangshu, I don't understand."
"This Maitreya Buddha is not an evil god. It is also a symbol of [compassion] in Buddhism, but you have made dead people come out."
"What exactly is the intention?"
Chu Qianqiu frowned and said, the meaning of Maitreya Buddha in Sanskrit is "compassion". Isn't it a bit strange to summon such a Buddha but stack it with countless deaths?
"Lord Zhongwu, do you think King Jing will tell me this important information?"
Zheng Shangshu smiled and said.
"Then it seems that you are of no use anymore, so you might as well die."
Chu Qianqiu showed a kind smile and made Zheng Shangshu feel his scalp numb.
"etc!"
"Lord Zhongwu, how can you kill me?"
"The name is not correct and the words are not correct."
He is a high-ranking official of the second rank. In terms of official position, he is two levels higher than Chu Qianqiu. He is the highest level in the empire's power hierarchy.
Not to mention that he is a Juxiang-level master. With any of these statuses, he would be considered a great nobleman in the imperial court.
But Chu Zhongwu was actually ready to take action directly and crush himself to death.
No way.
"Lord Zhongwu, I have thought of it."
"According to Buddhist legend, this Maitreya Buddha will not be born until 5.6 billion years later. His name is Compassion."
"King King Jing should use this death formation to make people unable to endure the suffering in the world and come to the world early."
"Gather the death energy, connect with Maitreya Buddha's gods in the [Colorless Realm], and let the gods descend to earth."
Forced by death, Zheng Shangshu quickly revealed shocking information.
"Communicating the colorless realm and letting the gods descend to earth is such a great feat."
Chu Qianqiu suddenly remembered something. He had directly blasphemed the gods during the ceremony to worship [Si Ming Xingjun]. (Note: Chapter 642)
Could it be that King Jing's behavior this time was very similar to his own behavior?
It's just that he is seeking death, while King Jing is letting others die, and through a large number of deaths, he can summon the spirit of Maitreya Buddha, and then use it for him.
The Buddha's fetus in Kongang Temple absorbs the five declining energies between heaven and earth. Could it be that King Jing's Buddha's fetus induces the gods in the formless world to descend directly to the earth?
"So I can help Master Zhongwu and take charge of the power of punishment."
"The criminal warriors in this world are like crucian carp crossing the river. Master Zhongwu can completely screen them and use them for his own purposes."
Zheng Shangshu enjoyed his job as prison chief, so he didn't want to die.
He felt that he was not wrong.
What's wrong with him? He just wants to put everyone in the world in prison and create a world without criminals.
What a lofty ideal.
"Zheng Shangshu, you said it very well."
"Now you have only one choice, and that is to work as an undercover agent for me, find the whereabouts of King Jing, and at the same time stop King Jing from using the death row prisoners in the court to create death aura. Do you understand?"
"Understood."
"Very good, then go to hell."
After Chu Qianqiu finished speaking, he showed a kind smile. He had already summoned Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva and Lord Si Mingxing, and directly killed them without giving them any chance to resist.
Si Mingxingjun - the master of the soul!
Ksitigarbha Soul Crossing Sutra - Six Paths of Reincarnation!
Chu Qianqiu first used Siming Xingjun to draw out Zheng Shangshu's soul, and then instantly used Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to directly save him. The whole process went smoothly.
This is not killing a chicken with a knife, but more like a slaughterhouse on an industrial assembly line. Without any ability to resist, a master of martial arts ascended to heaven and became a Buddha.
Zheng Shangshu's last thought was, why did you kill me?
Didn't I already promise to be your slave?
Chu Zhongwu, you are not trustworthy.
Zheng Shangshu issued the final curse with deep doubts.
Martial arts masters never like to go against martial arts masters. The reason is very simple. If most martial arts masters know that they are bound to die, they will definitely choose to die together, or even turn their souls into curses to curse the other party.
However, Chu Qianqiu has the strongest Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva, and any curse is invalid to him.
A mere evil ghost is worthy of cursing Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. What a wishful thinking.
"How can I trust someone like you?"
Chu Qianqiu clapped his hands to clean away the resentment on it, retaining the most complete memory, and directly checked Zheng Shangshu's memory to see if he had deceived him.
…
Department of Punishment, Tianlao
"This man was originally evil by nature."
"It's impossible to rely on etiquette to restrain villains."
"There are not many gentlemen in the world. Only when these villains are put in jail can they wake up."
"Remember, I would rather catch a thousand more than let one go."
"Do you understand?"
"Yes, sir."
"Very good, then I will teach you the highest martial arts, the Dharma Sutra, the supreme treasure left by the Legalists back then!"
Zheng Shangshu is quite prestigious in the Ministry of Punishment. Although his ideals are very perverted, he is decisive in his actions and has clear rewards and punishments.
There are not many subordinates who support him.
"Thank you for your kindness, sir!"
…
"Liu Yun, are you saying that King Jing needs a large number of dead people?"
"Yes, the prince's skills are of great use."
"No problem, I can cooperate with the prince."
"It's just that death row inmates in prison, especially innate masters, are an important business."
"I don't know how many policemen from the Six Gates made a fortune from it."
"If I want to help the prince, I need the support of money."
"Don't worry, Lord Shangshu, the prince can afford it no matter how much money he has. Not to mention the tea family in Yuzhou, even the Bei family in Jiangzhou can provide a huge amount of money."
"Don't say it, cough." Layman Liuyun was afraid that he would spill the beans, so he said with a smile, as if he understood.
"Then I'll be relieved."
…
Chu Qianqiu looked through Zheng Shangshu's memories, you old guy really had a secret, but in the end I gave you a lot of gold coins.
Chu Qianqiu was quite satisfied with this harvest.
This Legalist legacy is actually not worth mentioning. Since being swallowed up by Confucianism, they have no legacy left to talk about.
In his early years, Zheng Shangshu was also a lucky man in the world. He obtained a fragment of the Supreme Legalist Book "Dharma Sutra" and a real-life-level treasure [the Haechi Statue].
Although it is an incredible adventure in the world of martial arts.
But compared with the wealth of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism, it can only be described as pitiful.
There are only fragments of this "Dharma Sutra". Judging from Chu Qianqiu's knowledge of martial arts, it can only be regarded as a top-grade purple book that can condense [Black Haechi].
Now the complete version of this exercise is probably in the hands of Zhishan Academy, which has allowed them to transform the six-door Zhenpa exercise "The Sutra of Loyalty and Filial Piety".
Only then did Chu Qianqiu understand the inheritance of the six sects' techniques. Some came from Confucianism, some came from Legalism, and some came from the royal family. It could be said to be a mixed bag.
But with another kind of academic inheritance, it is still of great reference value for Chu Qianqiu.
Not only that, the power of King Jing's collusion gradually emerged before his eyes.
I have to say that King Jing is quite well prepared.
In terms of the army, there was Jing Yulong, the Minister of the Ministry of War, and in terms of financial resources, he also attracted two major imperial merchants, and even infiltrated the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment and other places. It can be said that it is intricately connected.
"Cha family, Bei family, two of the eight royal merchants of this royal family secretly became rebels."
"Then it seems that I have no choice but to go to Yuzhou and Jiangzhou and have a heart-to-heart talk with them all."
"Are you right, Zheng Shangshu?"
Chu Qianqiu smiled and said to Zheng Shangshu.
"Chu Zhongwu, you are not trustworthy."
His hatred could not go away, and he suddenly regained his consciousness and cursed loudly.
As a result, Chu Qianqiu swallowed it up in one gulp.
