Mrs. Zhang yelled and cursed in front of Xu Zhiqiong's door.
Tong Qingqiu heard the sound next door and was about to come over to take a look. His wife rushed to the door and dragged him into the house.
"What are you doing?" Tong Qingqiu pushed his wife away and said, "Zhiqiong is in trouble, I have to go and take a look!"
The lady said: "You are not allowed to go anywhere, just stay at home!"
"If someone bullies me at the door, can I still watch and ignore it?"
"What do you care about? That's the wife of the head of the Criminal Department. That bastard committed suicide by killing her dog. Are you going to die with him?"
Tong Qingqiu insisted on going out to have a look, but Mr. Wang refused to let her go.
In the room outside the door, Mrs. Zhang had the door kicked open, but the thin wooden door could not be opened by two servants who kicked it more than ten times.
Xu Zhiqiong stood in the door, clenching his fists.
The Taoist leader calmly picked up a piece of dog meat and started chewing it.
This Taoist robe of his is really immortal, but it seems that he has never seen a Taoist robe in the memory of the original owner.
The power of Daxuan is dominated by Taoism. All practitioners of the righteous path in the four directions are considered Taoist priests, but he is the only one who wears Taoist robes and claims to be a poor Taoist.
Judging from the yelling and cursing, there were two servants, two maids, and a shrew outside the door.
Xu Zhiqiong didn't panic at all. With his skills of substituting things with others, it was no problem to deal with these people.
I almost forgot, there is a servant who has cultivation skills.
It doesn't matter, it's only the ninth level. Even if you can't deal with it, there is still a Taoist priest who can tell you the truth.
I just don’t know what the consequences will be if I offend Mr. Zhang from the Criminal Department.
Let's wait for them to break in first. It's a serious crime to break into a house at night. If you go to court, you'll have to deal with it yourself.
But is accounting useful? Her man is the head of the Criminal Department.
Seeing that the servants couldn't kick them away, Mrs. Zhang stepped forward and kicked the two servants, and cursed: "Two wine bags and rice bags, with such a big body, they can't even kick open a broken door and fan!"
A servant lowered his head and said, "There seems to be a magic spell on this door."
"What a fool! Burn this yard down!"
This evil bitch was going to set fire to her, and Xu Zhiqiong couldn't bear it any longer.
We can't let her burn down the house, go out and fight with her!
Xu Zhiqiong was about to go out, but was stopped by the Taoist priest.
"Don't go anywhere, just sit down and calm down."
Sitting? The fire is on the rafters. You asked me to meditate, but you still asked me to sit?
"I just want you to sit down." The Taoist leader pulled off another dog leg and chewed on it. "You are here, what are you afraid of?"
Xu Zhiqiong blinked and said, "Master, you came here specially to save me, right?"
"Otherwise? Do you think I came here specifically to eat dog meat?"
The Taoist priest threw away the dog bone: "Originally, I didn't want to meet you too early, and letting you know my identity would be of no benefit to you. But you left too many mistakes, so I can only help you personally." Cooking is done, now listen to me and focus your eyes!"
"Concentrate on your eyes? What is this?"
"Don't ask any questions, just do as you are told."
Xu Zhiqiong focused his thoughts on his eyes. The Taoist priest put down the dog meat, caressed a jade plaque in his hand, and looked at the door with his eyes, as if he could see what was going on outside.
After a long time, two servants found some dead branches and hay and piled them outside the door. They were about to light a fire when they suddenly saw the door open.
Xu Zhiqiong looked at the two servants in the door and trembled with fear.
But I saw that the two servants each had a horn on their head, almost two inches long. Thanks to not going out just now, it turned out that these servants were transformed from monsters.
And the two maids behind me also have inch-long horns on their heads. They were also transformed into monsters.
And the horns on Mrs. Zhang’s head are at least three inches long. She is a big monster!
After killing a dog and poking into the monster's nest, Xu Zhiqiong never expected such a result.
Mrs. Zhang could not see the Taoist priest, but could only see Xu Zhiqiong sitting in the yard, while the two servants were adding dead branches and hay. Mrs. Zhang felt even more annoyed and kicked him more than a dozen times.
"Two bastards! Why set fire when the door is open? Go in and drag that little bastard out for me!"
The two servants were kicked more than a dozen times and stood still.
Mrs. Zhang was furious: "What are you doing standing here? Why have you lost your soul?"
The two servants seemed to have lost their souls, motionless.
The Taoist priest asked Xu Zhiqiong: "Did you see it?"
What to see?
Xu Zhiqiong looked confused.
The Taoist priest frowned and said, "Concentrate on your eyes and use more strength!"
How can you concentrate when the other party is right in front of you?
The Taoist priest had an angry look on his face, but Xu Zhiqiong did not dare to disobey him. He closed his eyes and concentrated his thoughts as much as possible in his eyes.
When I opened my eyes again, my entire field of vision had changed dramatically.
Colors are darker than before, outlines are clearer than before, and the whole world has become deeper.
Two figures reappeared from sight, one tall and thin, the other short and fat. They were standing behind the two servants.
Is there a ghost behind the monster?
Xu Zhiqiong has learned a lot this time.
Are these two servants possessed by ghosts?
Xu Zhiqiong stared at the ghosts for a long time. Although the distance was far away, Xu Zhiqiong's vision improved a lot and he could clearly see the masks on the faces of the two ghosts.
The mask covered the forehead from the forehead to the tip of the nose, and the lips were exposed. Judging from the shape of their lips, the two ghosts seemed to be smiling.
Mrs. Zhang kicked and beat her for a long time before the two servants finally responded.
They turned around one after another and looked at Mrs. Zhang silently.
"Look what I do? What do you want to do?"
Mrs. Zhang thought that these two slaves wanted to complain, so she scolded them first: "Why do you want to rebel?"
The servant looked dull and said: "You beat and scold us at every turn, do you think we are animals?"
Mrs. Zhang was furious and stepped forward to kick and beat her. The servant stepped forward, grabbed Mrs. Zhang's hair, and knocked out two of the shrew's front teeth with one punch.
Mrs. Zhang was so frightened that her mouth was bleeding and she couldn't recover for a while. She was moaning and cursing.
Another servant stepped forward and punched her on the cheek again, and Mrs. Zhang began to cry loudly.
The two maids tried to stop her, but were kicked away by the servant. A servant grabbed her hair and dragged Mrs. Zhang towards the river.
The two maidservants chased after him, and the two ghosts also followed.
Xu Zhiqiong sat dumbly in the yard, and the Taoist priest said: "Follow me and have a look."
"Okay." The amount of information in the scene just now was too large, and Xu Zhiqiong temporarily lost his ability to think. Now he will do whatever the Taoist leader asks him to do.
He was about to go out, but found that he couldn't move. The Taoist priest patted his back again and said another mantra: "Concrete in the eyes, the intention comes from Baihui."
As he finished speaking, a mouse happened to pass by in front of him.
The Taoist Master coughed and said, "This is fine..."
Xu Zhiqiong's vision blurred for a while, and then his vision changed.
The height has changed and it seems to be touching the ground.
The screen shakes, as if I am running fast.
From the height and angle, it looks like a mouse's field of vision.
What is this situation? Have you turned into a mouse?
After chasing her all the way to the river, Xu Zhiqiong watched as two servants took Mrs. Zhang's head and hit it against a stone.
After two collisions, Mrs. Zhang's brains burst out and she died on the spot. The two maidservants were so frightened that they turned around and ran away, shouting: "Killing, killing!"
The two servants stood motionless, the short and fat ghost stood behind the two servants, and the tall and thin ghost squatted on the ground and pulled the horn off Mrs. Zhang's head.
What kind of operations are these? What kind of world is this? What is the grudge between these monsters and these evil ghosts?
These two ghosts controlled these two servants and killed Mrs. Zhang?
Xu Zhiqiong tried to figure out an idea from the series of events, but he heard the Taoist priest say in his ear: "These two idiots are not reliable and have left a lot of trouble."
"What kind of consequences?"
"This woman came here to find a dog, but you killed the dog and the woman too. Do you think you can get away with it?"
Xu Zhiqiong was confused again. From beginning to end, he never made a move against Mrs. Zhang. What does this matter have to do with him?
But then I thought about it and realized that what the Taoist priest said was right. The whole incident was caused by the black dog. If he were to be traced, the matter would still involve him.
The Taoist priest asked again: "Can we get rid of the relationship?"
A mouse squatted on the ground, shook its head, and whispered: "I can't get away."
This mouse is Xu Zhiqiong. To be precise, his soul is attached to the mouse.
The Taoist priest continued: "This is a future trouble. These two people are too unreliable in their work. I think when our Taoist sect is at its peak, we will never want such mediocre people. You must take this as a warning in the future."
Driven by the Taoist priest, the mouse ran wildly and soon caught up with the two escaping maids.
The maid happened to bump into the night guard carrying a lantern. The leader was wearing a green robe and holding a green lantern. Hearing the maid said that someone had killed someone, he quickly rushed to the Qinhuai River with two white lantern men.
Seeing the Lantern Man coming, two "ghosts", one tall and one short, were hiding in the distance.
The two servants suddenly woke up and remembered what had just happened. They looked at Mrs. Zhang's body. The two servants did not dare to stay for a long time and ran away. Qing Denglang shouted: "How dare you leave?"
One step, shoot to death!"
These two servants knew that the person coming was the lantern-carrying man, but even if the emperor came, they would have to run away.
According to the Great Xuan Law, slaves and hired workers who kill the master of the household shall be executed at Lingchi.
If you don't run, you'll die, and you'll have to suffer all kinds of torture to death. If you run, you might still have a chance of survival, and even if you die, you can die happily.
Seeing that his shouting was ineffective, Qing Lantern Lang chased the servant in two steps. He held the lantern in his left hand and drew his sword in his right hand.
What a delicate sword. The handle is one foot and two inches long, the blade is three and a half feet long, and the blade is long and one and a half inches wide. It looks a bit like a spring knife.
This knife is called the Biao Chi Blade, and it is the unique equipment of the Lantern Man.
Qing Denglang first chopped off the head of one servant, then turned back and pointed the blade at the neck of another servant.
I thought that the servant didn't dare to move, but I didn't expect that the servant dodged the blade and punched Qing Denglang in the face.
He has cultivation! This servant is a ninth-grade killer, and Xu Zhiqiong has fought against him!
But this servant seems to be only at the lower level of the ninth rank. His skills are not pure, his strength is not strong enough, and his speed is not fast enough.
Qing Deng Lang twisted his body and easily dodged. The servant punched Qing Deng Lang again in the ribs.
Once the cultivator of the Killing Dao is allowed to get close, the attack will be as continuous as a tidal wave.
Qing Deng Lang was well prepared and twisted his body back and forth to avoid the servant's fist.
His joints have been twisted to an incredible degree. Xu Zhiqiong has also seen this method before. It is the White Tiger's killing skill.
This Qing Deng Lang is an eighth-level cultivator of the White Tiger Killing Path. This realm is called Tiger Leap.
Such powerful flexibility comes from the eighth-level killing skill, Bone Crushing.
Broken bones are not the enemy's bones, but your own bones. In fact, they are not really broken. They use Qi to soften the bones, thereby breaking through the body's flexibility limit.
Without taking into account the combat environment, physical talents and weapons and equipment, if the killing cultivation level is increased by one level, the combat power will be doubled.
To put it simply, a ninth-grade mid-level player can deal with two ninth-level lower-level players, and a ninth-level upper-level player can deal with two ninth-level middle players.
This Green Lantern Lang is at least in the middle of the eighth rank, and his combat power is sixteen times that of the lower rank of the ninth rank, not counting the skill advantage of the eighth rank.
Qing Denglang wanted to kill this servant without any effort. The reason why he fought with these moves was because he wanted to catch him alive.
He twisted his sword behind his back, used a lantern to distract the servant's sight, and prepared to cut off one of the servant's legs by surprise.
The short and fat "ghost" hiding in the dark suddenly threw a lump of mud. Just when Qing Denglang was about to take action, he stepped on the mud, staggered and almost fell down.
The servant took this opportunity to punch Qing Deng Lang in the back of the head. Qing Deng Lang could no longer dodge because he had not yet stood firm.
He raised his hand and raised the lantern. The flames in the lantern rose and burned on the servant's face.
The servant shuddered and was stabbed in the throat by the lantern pole.
Yes, Xu Zhiqiong could see clearly that it was a lantern pole.
A sharp blade over five inches long protruded from the front end of the lantern pole, stabbed into the servant's throat and came out from the back of the head.
The mouse watching the battle from a distance shivered.
Now Xu Zhiqiong finally knows why people are so afraid of the Lantern Man.
Qing Denglang kicked down the servant's body, collected the lantern and saber, wiped the blood, and asked Bai Denglang to bring the two women over for questioning.
Taking this opportunity, the two ghosts quickly stepped forward, twisted the horns off the heads of the two servants, and then disappeared into the night.
The Taoist priest asked: "Do you know who these two are?"
"It's an evil ghost." Xu Zhiqiong gave a very subjective answer.
The Taoist Master said in a rather displeased tone: "They are not ghosts. They are judges just like you. They are the eighth-grade guide bookkeepers. You are the ninth-grade mortal official. You can kill evildoers with your own hands and earn merits.
