Chapter 128: Gods and demons, the lesser of two evils
The earthquake that occurred at Taiyi Peak of Zhongnan Mountain came and went quickly. Before most people in Chang'an could react, the earthquake had stopped.
In the dark night, a group of women with pale faces were staggering down the mountain from Taiyi Peak of Zhongnan Mountain with the help of five energetic little foxes.
Although Kong Qing's battle with Taiyi God just didn't last long, it left indelible marks on the mountain.
The mountain peaks shook, boulders collapsed, and scattered rubble spread almost all over Taiyi Mountain. There were also many dark caves on the mountain, and the mountain wind blew through, making a whining sound.
The original mountain road in Taiyi Mountain was also buried by huge rocks. Broken gravel could be seen everywhere, making it impossible to find the way down the mountain.
Fortunately, the bodies of this group of women are still strong, and there are five little foxes helping to explore the way, so although the group of people climbed down very slowly, at least nothing else has happened so far.
ACCIDENT.
In the air behind them, an old Taoist priest with white hair and beard was chatting with a young and handsome Taoist priest with his hands clasped behind his back.
"Qingwei, what you did was a bit reckless..."
The old Taoist priest spoke in a somewhat angry tone.
"You have just established your foundation not long ago. The first thing you have to do at this time is not to show off your strength and fight, but to purify your true energy and merge your life and life. If you really want to fight, can't you wait until you become a real person?"
"yes!"
Kong Qing respectfully agreed.
No matter what the relationship between him and Qingxiazi is, what Qingxiazi said is actually right.
If I were not a man with cheats, I would definitely stay in a safe place and practice hard instead of going out to gain experience.
"I also want to practice well, but there are some things that I really can't stand..."
"Can't you stand it? If you can't even stand it, then don't stand it at all."
Su Yuanlang snorted.
"Do you know about the plague that happened in Youzhou not long ago?"
"Um!"
Kong Qing nodded honestly. "I heard from my colleagues in the bureau..."
Su Yuanlang put his hands behind his hands and looked at the sky, his tone was misty.
"Any idea how it happened?"
Kong Qing shook his head honestly.
"My colleagues in the bureau have never talked about it..."
"Not long ago, the Taishan God wanted to recruit five thousand people..."
Su Yuanlang's tone of voice was neither sad nor happy, but very calm. "The old Taoist asked his people to go to the place where the Turks invaded this time to conquer, but they didn't conquer enough, and then the plague happened."
"how come……"
Kong Qing felt that his voice had become a little dry. "The number of people who died due to the plague this time is already more than 5,000, right?"
"Dynasty recruiters in the mortal world must choose strong men," Qingxiazi said lightly. "The Taishan God must choose those with strong soul power, and not everyone who is infected with the plague and dies can achieve this."
This requirement.”
"This is too much..."
After hearing Su Yuanlang's words, Kong Qing, who was still a little high-spirited because of the death of Taiyi Shen, felt that he had been poured cold water on him in an instant.
"God Taishan is the righteous God!"
"Zhengshen, haha..."
Su Yuanlang laughed heartily.
"The Taiyi God you killed is also a righteous god. Eight of the ten gods who committed crimes are righteous gods. The world is lacking everything now, except these demons, monsters and righteous gods."
Kong Qing shook his head gently, not knowing what to say.
"But even though Qingwei, what you did was a bit reckless..."
Su Yuanlang seemed to notice that Kong Qing was a little depressed, so he reached out and patted his shoulder.
"But I still have to tell you, well done!"
Kong Qing blinked and looked at Su Yuanlang with some confusion.
"Qingwei, what's that look in your eyes? Do you think the old Taoist will still stand with those gods?"
Su Yuanlang looked at Kong Qing with a smile.
"The reason why the old Taoist does not plan to touch the Taiyi God is because he is worried that before his death, he will jump over the wall and collapse the Taiyi Peak, resulting in countless casualties. Then these sins will be counted on the old Taoist head.
Similarly, the reason why the gods of Jingzhao Mansion did not dare to act blatantly was because they were afraid of making me anxious. I simply let go and beat them to death regardless of whether they were guilty or not, whether they were immortals or not.
Both sides have concerns, so a balance is maintained. This is the way of yin and yang."
Kong Qing thought that in order to find a beautiful woman, Taiyi God had to find a scapegoat to go down the mountain with a bamboo stick, and after finding the beautiful woman, he had to fake the scene of her death due to sudden illness, and nodded silently.
Indeed, if it weren't for Su Yuanlang, Taiyi Shen would definitely not act so cautiously.
It's a pity that I am too weak now, and I can only hold a big killer weapon like the God Whip in my hand and smash it. If my strength goes further, I only need to shake when I encounter these guys who merge themselves with authority.
With his hand, he raised the whip, and then made a snap sound.
"But the problem is that on the surface everyone is in balance, but there are always some unscrupulous people who are constantly testing the bottom line of the veteran..."
Qingxiazi snorted.
"This veteran is also very upset about this. Just kill them. It will affect more innocent people. Leave them alone. They will just squeak like rats."
"But it's better now..."
Su Yuanlang stroked his beard with his hand and laughed happily.
"No matter how you killed Taiyi God, the fact that Taiyi God died but Taiyi Mountain did not collapse will definitely shock these bastards in Jingzhao and let them know that their cards are not that effective.
. So they will definitely be honest for a while, and the old man can live a peaceful life for a few days."
Kong Qing silently touched his demon refining pot and asked tentatively.
"Master Qingxia, can't we take a preemptive strike and eradicate all these gods? I mean, if I have a way to invalidate these gods' trump cards..."
"It's difficult!"
Qingxiazi shook her head.
"There are too many. Even if we can kill three or four of them out of the blue, the remaining gods, knowing that they will not be spared, may just act bravely and then they will be affected by earthquakes, floods, and droughts."
If it comes up, the unlucky ones will still be ordinary people."
"I see!"
Kong Qing nodded silently, it seemed that he still needed to think more carefully.
"Besides, compared with most demons and ghosts, even the worst righteous god can be said to have a bottom line."
Qingxiazi let out a long sigh.
"With no better solution, I have to choose the lesser of two evils."
As Qingxiazi said these words, the two of them fell into silence for a while.
Below them, Twenty Niangs and the search foxes were still full of energy while exploring the way, while pulling and dragging the beauties rescued from Taiyi Wonderland down the mountain.
"That's all, let's not talk about this anymore!"
Su Yuanlang suddenly turned his head, looked back, and said to Kong Qing.
"Qingwei, you should take these foxes with you and continue to send these poor people back to Chang'an. I will go around the Zhongnan Mountains, take a walk, and do some exercise."
With that said, Qingxiazi turned around and flew towards the right side of Taiyi Mountain.
A few seconds later, a loud bang and a panicked voice were heard coming from the direction Qingxiazi left.
"Qingxiazi, what are you going to do... Ah... Do you want to start a war with me... Ah... Master Qingxia, I just heard the sound and came over to take a look. There is absolutely nothing else...
ah……"
After another loud noise, the sound disappeared!
Then, Kong Qing saw Qingxiazi's figure swish, jump up again, and fly towards the depths of Zhongnan Mountain.
The corners of Kong Qing's mouth twitched.
So Qingxiazi killed the body of a god? In just two sentences?
Does he also have a magic whip in his hand...
Maybe it was because Qingxiazi took action and directly killed a god Dharmakaya who was watching the fun. The subsequent actions of Kong Qing and the search foxes were very smooth. The five little foxes divided the work and cooperated, pulling the beauties away along the way.
Taiyi Peak.
But because the path they took when going down the mountain was not the same as the one they took up the mountain, the search foxes could only go through the dense forest of Zhongnan Mountain and head towards Chang'an.
"Hey! Ha!"
The little fox Twenty-nine Niang waved the cloth in her hand and opened the way for everyone. Twenty-four Niang and the other two little foxes were taking care of the beauties on the left and right. Twenty-nine Niang respectfully held the sleeping ones with a dazed look on their faces.
The little milk cat uses the power of Longzi to drive away the insects and snakes along the way.
Just after they rounded a hillside of Zhongnan Mountain, another hut appeared in front of them, and the style was similar to the hut used by God Taiyi to protect the divine domain.
"Mr. Lang..."
The team stopped, and Twenty Niang carefully held the little kitten and looked back at Kong Qing.
‘Is that hut also the domain of a certain mountain god?’
"Probably not..."
Kong Qing floated up, looked left and right, and said with some uncertainty.
"Okay, Pindao, go over and take a look. You can take your sisters and wait here."
As he spoke, Kong Qing directly took out the whip and held it in his hand. He drew an arc in the air and flew quietly to the window of the lit hut. He closed one eye and looked in through the window lattice.
.
Then under the dim light in the hut, Kong Qing saw a man in Taoist robes being tied up in front of what looked like an alchemy furnace. A thin man with a date-faced face was holding a dagger in his hand.
, pressed against the person wearing the robe.
"Master Wang, let me ask you again, where are the golden cinnabar you refined?"
The man with the jujube face viciously struck the dagger in his hand twice on the man in the monk's robe.
"If you don't say anything, don't blame someone for being ruthless. Have you seen these two hands of yours? I'll count to ten. If you don't say anything, say goodbye to them!
one two three……"
"Cheng Bi,"
Although the man in Taoist robes was tied up, his face remained calm and unchanging.
"If you want to take action, do it. If you do something to me today, you will suffer the same fate in the future."
Kong Qing, who was standing outside the window, blinked silently.
Cheng Bi...
Why is this name so familiar? Pindao sounds so familiar...
