On the streets of Chang'an City, people were coming and going, vendors were selling on both sides of the streets, and flags were hanging out of the buildings, moving with the wind, it was so lively.
Zhang Ziyu appeared on the street, wearing a Taoist robe. He looked around and then towards the depths of the imperial city. They were disappointed to see a bit of gray aura accompanying the luck of the dynasty.
"This world is indeed a bit 'simple' in its folk customs. You should first look around before speaking. Don't be impulsive."
Although it is not like A Chinese Ghost Story, where hostility is shrouded and evil spirits are rising, it is a scene of chaos.
There was no doubt that the Tang Dynasty was in its prosperous age, but there was a lot of hostility and resentment hidden inside.
The world is like this, so are the many people, and demons and ghosts will naturally continue to be born.
To a certain extent, what Tathagata said when he taught Chen Xuanzang is right.
Killing with one knife is not the real salvation, awakening the truth, goodness and beauty in the monster's heart is the real salvation.
A hundred people have been killed, but it only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. New monsters will appear when the time comes.
But if we can clear away the bad luck and the lingering hostility in the world, then the whole world will be a little better.
What you say is indeed good, and what you do saves the world.
However, Zhang Ziyu didn't like it very much.
Without him, there are so many ways to save the world with a powerful body, and it is not an exaggeration to do it yourself.
Of course, if he wanted to be alone and just quit, Zhang Ziyu wouldn't say anything.
However, this Tathagata's calculations are too deep. Whether it was the suppression of Sun Wukong five hundred years ago, or the Indeterminate Flying Ring passed down from Miss Duan's family, which one was not his plan first?
After hundreds of years of scheming, he refused to save him until he was dead, and finally he sanctimoniously taught Chen Xuanzang how to save the world.
Are you just going to watch the chaos of the human world for hundreds of years?
They also want to gain benefits and promote Mahayana Buddhism, but they sit back and ignore human affairs. Maybe they are secretly promoting it.
In the end, in order to make Chen Xuanzang give up, he directly sacrificed Miss Duan, which was very impressive.
Tathagata: Disciple, in order for you to understand the great love and the small love, I let you go first.
Zhang Ziyu doesn't like this kind of bitchy Buddha. Although he has advanced cultivation, his Buddha nature and human nature are probably not as good as those of Master Yixiu and Puhong.
It's OK to be the same on the outside, but be a bitch on the inside, fuck your dad.
While thinking, a sudden noise came, and suddenly I saw a crowd of people not far away, and a large group of people gathered around the place where the results were released.
In the innermost circle are sergeants wearing black corseted official uniforms and carrying swords at their waists. They stand tall and look solemn. They are posting the yellow list on the notice board.
"There is a black tiger demon in Linshan Village, ten miles west of Chang'an City, killing merchants. There are more than 30 villagers. We are recruiting exorcists. Please do not go there until the demon is subdued."
The sergeant posted the notice and informed the onlookers in plain language.
Zhang Ziyu looked at the notice. The content recorded on it was almost the same as what the sergeant said, but there were a few more lines.
The exorcist kills the monster and takes the corpse to exchange for a hundred taels of gold from the exorcist guard.
The sergeant didn't read this information just now. It wasn't an oversight, but it was intentional.
After all, there is no guarantee that ordinary people will not be able to figure out how to find the black tiger demon and die after hearing about the huge reward.
Of course, another reason is that there are probably no exorcists among these people. Exorcists in need will naturally understand this sentence.
"Hiss, there is a monster again. There are too many monsters in this world."
"Well, who says it's not the case? It's just that the merchants can't come, so the things sold everywhere will probably be a little more expensive."
There was a lot of discussion among the people, and the sergeant prepared to leave from the crowd after posting the notice.
Zhang Ziyu looked at the leaving sergeant, which was quite interesting. This sergeant also had some spiritual power in his body.
Zhang Ziyu disappeared into the crowd, found a wine shop, and ordered some food.
The food is not as good as the ones made by Huang Rong, but it still has a certain flavor, and it does not lose the splendor of Chang'an City.
"Your Majesty, please be patient. If you have any instructions, please greet me."
"Don't worry, who are those black-clad sergeants who just posted the list? Please tell me."
Zhang Ziyu stopped the waiter, looked at him and asked questions.
The waiter was stunned and couldn't help but glance at Zhang Ziyu with doubts, but he didn't dare to show it: "Sir, don't you know the demon slayer?"
"Tell me in detail"
Zhang Ziyu didn't pay attention to the surprise in Xiao Er's words, but asked him to elaborate.
"The demon-killing guards are my guards in the Tang Dynasty who subjugate demons and eliminate demons. They are responsible for dealing with demon disasters everywhere. They are all people with great abilities."
Zhang Ziyu asked curiously: "Oh, why are you still offering a reward to recruit exorcists?"
The waiter's face stiffened, his cheerful expression was interrupted, and he felt a little constipated.
However, he still said honestly: "There are too many demon disasters. Although the demon exorcism guards are enough to protect the capital, they are still unable to deal with small places. That's why we invited exorcists to slay demons."
Zhang Ziyu and Xiao Er answered questions and answers, and finally got a rough idea of some situations in this world.
This world is not just filled with exorcists walking around. Wherever there are monsters, go wherever they are.
Exorcists are the main force in subjugating demons, but there are two other forces affiliated with the imperial court.
The Demon Exterminator Guard is one of them. It is commanded by Li Chunfeng and specializes in dealing with demon disasters in this world. There are many cultivators and warriors among them.
The other is Qin Tian Jian, headed by Yuan Tiangang, who is responsible for guarding the royal family and divination.
Although there are two forces, except for the two characters Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, the rest are disparate in number and strength, so they cannot deal with so many evil disasters in this world.
Therefore, various exorcists were produced, and under the guidance of the court, they offered rewards in exchange for rewards.
"The demon slayer is quite interesting, but I didn't see it when I was watching the movie."
Zhang Ziyu was not surprised at all by the sudden appearance of such a force. After all, you have so many demons and exorcists everywhere, it is impossible for a dynasty not to have such power.
Zhang Ziyu looked thoughtful. It was unrealistic to directly confront Tathagata in this world. At least he had to enter the village quietly, and no shooting was needed for the time being.
The three great demons, Sha Wujing, Zhu Ganghe and Sun Wukong, cannot move for the time being. It is also difficult to contact Chen Xuanzang immediately, otherwise they will be easily noticed by Tathagata.
First of all, we need to find out how powerful Tathagata is. Is he an immortal above the Tao, or is he more powerful?
"Sneak into the enemy's interior and then think of a way to launch a wave. It's safe."
Zhang Ziyu stood up and left the wine shop. With a slight move of his hand, the Ten Thousand Bone Sword appeared behind him. Then he strode out of the city. In a few steps, he shrunk to an inch and disappeared into Chang'an City.
To the west of Chang'an City, outside Linshan Village ten miles away, Zhang Ziyu's figure appeared here.
From a distance, the mountains and forests are dense, faintly surrounded by black air, and there are monsters in the forest.
The monster here has hurt a lot of people, and it's obvious that he has some moral character, but that's the end of it.
Zhang Ziyu stepped into the forest. Not long after, the black wind suddenly blew up. With a roar and a tiger roar, a ten-meter-large black tiger suddenly jumped out of the bush and rushed towards Zhang Ziyu.
Black energy lingered around the black tiger demon, and there were faint wings growing between its ribs. Its eyes were glowing with red light, and a sinister aura rushed toward its face.
The strength of the black tiger demon is pretty good, roughly the peak strength of foundation building. No wonder it can harm so many merchants.
But that's all.
"Be good."
Zhang Ziyu tapped his hand gently, and the Ten Thousand Bone Sword pierced the black tiger demon's body. In an instant, the black tiger demon fell directly to the ground, black blood continued to gush out, and he was dying.
