In the early morning, Xu Zhiqiong woke up, stood up, moved his shoulders and neck, and tried his best to control the energy flowing out of his body.
At the sixth level of the Judge, there has been a qualitative change in Qi. Although it cannot be compared with the same level of killing, Xu Zhiqiong feels that his Qi reserves are at least doubled compared to those at the sixth level.
He stood in the courtyard, carefully feeling the movement of Qi and the trembling of meridians.
Zhuo Ling'er had just washed up and was coming out to pour water. Seeing Xu Zhiqiong standing naked in the biting cold wind, steaming all over his body, he couldn't help but admire: "What a good physique."
Xu Zhiqiong quickly put on his clothes and asked, "Is my wife awake?"
"I'm still asleep. I've been sleeping for at least five or six hours every day these past few days."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Sister, I have worked hard these days."
Zhuo Ling'er sneered and said, "Why are you so sweet-mouthed today? Do you have something to ask of me?"
"I really have something to ask of my sister. I have to deal with two powerful enemies in Huazhou. Does my sister know anyone in the Huazhou Evil Punishment Department?"
Zhuo Ling'er thought for a moment and said, "It's not like I don't know anyone, but if you want to ask them to fight, I advise you not to think so."
Xu Zhiqiong said in surprise: "We are all on the same path, punishing evil and eliminating evil, but they are unwilling to take action?"
Zhuo Ling'er smiled: "When you and Wu Qianhu fought in Beiyuan with Ren Yazi, which comrade helped you?"
"That's different. At that time, the Capital Punishment Department was under the control of Feng Jing'an. He refused to issue punishment orders. My colleagues didn't receive the news, so naturally they wouldn't come to help me."
"Will the long history of punishing evil in Huazhou give you an order to punish evil?" Zhuo Ling'er shook his head and sighed, "Although we have a division for punishing evil and a division for rewarding good, it seems that we are all members of the same family, but in the final analysis, we are all members of the same family.
We just practice under the same Taoist sect, so we don’t have such a deep friendship with each other.”
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Let's put aside our friendship. There are villains in Huazhou. I help them get rid of the evil. Are they not willing to help me?"
Zhuo Ling'er pursed her lips and said: "Brother, please allow me to say something unpleasant to my sister. You think you are helping them get rid of evil, but they may think that you are in the way of their affairs. It would be nice if you don't stumble on you, but also
Do you expect them to help you?"
Getting in the way?
Zhuo Ling'er seemed to have something in his words.
"Sister, have you heard about what happened in Huazhou?"
"I have never heard of it, and I don't want to hear it. If you really want to ask for help from the Evil Punishment Department in Huazhou, at least you have to come forward in person, Shi, the Chief of the Evil Punishment Department in the capital. But he is not easy to find. You can go to Chang Shi's Mansion.
Try your luck."
"That's fine." Xu Zhiqiong was about to go to the Punishment Department when he suddenly heard a faint whisper in his ears.
"Slippery, slippery, outside..."
Xu Zhiqiong vaguely heard a few words, but he didn't know where the low voice came from.
Zhuo Ling'er saw the strange look on Xu Zhiqiong's face and asked, "Are you feeling dizzy? Although being promoted is just the icing on the cake, you'd better rest for two days and don't show off."
"I can't rest now," Xu Zhiqiong rubbed his brows and said, "I have to go to Huazhou, and I have to go now."
Zhuo Ling'er said in surprise, "Aren't you going to punish the evil department?"
Xu Zhiqiong was startled: "Why should I punish the evil director?"
Zhuo Ling'er was startled: "I don't think you're going anywhere. You don't know your mind at all. Didn't you just say that you wanted to punish the evil leader and come forward to ask for help from your Huazhou colleagues?"
"Yes, yes!" Xu Zhiqiong rubbed his head, "Go to the Chief of Punishing Evil, go to the Chief's Mansion, why did you forget it?"
Zhuo Ling'er became more and more worried: "Brother, listen to my sister and rest in the Zhonglang Courtyard for two days."
Xu Zhiqiong rubbed his forehead, walked in circles, and went to the Punishment Department.
When he arrived at Changshi's Mansion, Xu Zhiqiong sat behind the desk, took out the order for punishing evil sons, and tapped the desk gently.
This was the secret code he and Lu Yanyou had set. If there was something urgent, he would directly issue the order to punish the evil son. Lu Yanyou would immediately bring his comrades to help.
If there is nothing urgent, just hit the record with the order to punish the evil son, and the long history of punishing the evil will naturally come to him.
Xu Zhiqiong was sitting in the Changshi's Mansion, waiting quietly for Lu Yanyou, thinking about how to negotiate with the Changshi of Huazhou when he arrived at the Huazhou Punishment Department.
According to what Zhuo Ling'er said, just preaching principles will definitely not work, you have to come up with some practical benefits.
But for the judge, what are the benefits of this matter?
Money? Pills? Weapons...
For the judge, the most important thing is meritorious service.
But can Taotie get any meritorious service?
The Blood Evil Sect can gain a lot...
"Slippery, slippery, outside..."
The low humming sound came again, and Xu Zhiqiong's thoughts were suddenly interrupted.
No, I have to go to Huazhou quickly and keep an eye on Tao Huayuan. She knows where Taotie's body is. If I don't pay attention, she may be plotted by the high officials.
Xu Zhiqiong was just about to leave for Huazhou when he suddenly saw Lu Yanyou appearing in front of him.
"What do you want from me?"
Xu Zhiqiong blinked and said, "Am I looking for you?"
Lu Yanyou was furious; "Since you are not looking for me, why did you go to Chang Shi's Mansion and knock on the order? I am a guilty person and cannot come to Chang Shi's Mansion casually!"
Several guests came to the teahouse last night, and the commotion lasted until dawn. You called me just after I went to sleep. You know how much effort it takes to just wear stilts..."
After saying these words, Xu Zhiqiong broke into a cold sweat.
Sweat seeped out of the mask and slid down his chin drop by drop.
Lu Yanyou snorted and said, "If I give you a few words of reprimand, you don't have to be so ashamed. Since there is nothing else, I will leave first."
He was about to leave Chang Shi's Mansion when Xu Zhiqiong grabbed him from behind: "Lu Chang Shi, I really have something important to do with you."
Lu Yanyou said anxiously, "If you have anything to do, tell me quickly!"
What's going on!
Xu Zhiqiong hugged his head, shook it for a while, and suddenly shouted: "This is not the first time!"
Lu Yanyou nodded and said: "It's indeed not the first time. You tricked me once when we were in Yizhou. Let me tell you, I won't argue with you this time. If there is a next time..."
"That's not what I'm talking about!" Xu Zhiqiong grabbed his hair hard, "I mean this isn't the first time I've been sick!"
Lu Yanyou asked in surprise: "What disease have you committed!"
Xu Zhiqiong squatted on the ground, and many things suddenly came to his mind.
When he wanted to investigate the tragedy of Shi Shuangliu's family, he finally found Zhang Jiugu, and from Zhang Jiugu to a sergeant under Wu Shanxing, he even tore off a few hairs from the sergeant's head and found them in a small dark room.
I got some clues, but things were interrupted.
Now those few hairs are still on his body, but Xu Zhiqiong never thinks about it again.
The reason for the interruption was that Xu Zhiqiong found that Beiyuan was recruiting laborers, and the price was surprisingly high. He suspected that there was fraud, so he followed Han Chen out of the city and went to the Hunting Garden. He saw that the laborers had been planted into blood trees. Xu Zhiqiong
Zhiqiong vowed to get to the bottom of the matter.
As a result, all the attention was focused on the blood tree, King Huai, the prince and the high official family. King Huai finally died, and the matter was found out. Han Chen mentioned Zhang Jiugu again, and Xu Zhiqiong was ready to investigate.
Interrupted again.
Every time he finds clues about Zhang Jiugu, Xu Zhiqiong always loses his mind due to various reasons.
Is it limited to Zhang Jiugu?
more than.
Xiao Songting killed the old red light Yi Xulou, Liang Yuming was killed afterwards, and most of his gang members were executed, but Xu Zhiqiong forgot to continue tracing Xiao Songting's whereabouts.
Xiao Songting and Zhang Jiugu jointly went to Xu Zhiqiong's house and had a big fight with Chang Decai. Xu Zhiqiong wanted to take the opportunity to find Xiao Songting, but he forgot about it afterwards.
Not to mention the distant ones, let’s talk about the recent ones. After Xu Zhiqiong was promoted to the sixth level, he has not learned the sixth level skills for a long time. Every time he made up his mind to learn skills, he always got caught up in some trivial things. Once he got stuck, he immediately
Just forget about promotion.
More recently, Xu Zhiqiong discovered Gao Renxiao's abnormal behavior in Yu'an County, but at the critical moment, he could not remember what was abnormal about him. It was not until he returned to the military tent and scratched his scalp that he could clarify his thoughts.
He really got sick more than once, and his thinking was always disturbed by a strange force.
But before, he didn't know where the interference came from. Now that his cultivation level has improved, Xu Zhiqiong's perception has also improved, and the power that interfered with him was sensed by Xu Zhiqiong.
The low hum sounded again, and Xu Zhiqiong concentrated and listened carefully:
"Huazhou,
Go to Huazhou quickly,
Find the Taotie body!"
Just this sentence, repeated repeatedly in his ears, made Xu Zhiqiong have the urge to go to Huazhou immediately.
Xu Zhiqiong knew that Taotie's outer body was in Huazhou, but he also planned to start with Taotie's outer body, but now he was preparing for it. With his own strength, he was not qualified to look directly at Taotie's outer body.
This low voice is interfering with Xu Zhiqiong's thinking. If Xu Zhiqiong's perception has not improved, he will regard this voice as the voice of his subconscious mind, and he will head to Huazhou rashly under the interference of this voice.
He would look for Taotie's outer body without adequate preparation. Not only would it be ineffective, but he might also be able to alert the enemy.
This kind of mistake is unimaginable for Xu Zhiqiong, but he almost made it.
The low groan sounded again:
"Huazhou, go to Huazhou quickly and find Taotie's outer body!"
Xu Zhiqiong gritted his teeth and said, "Who are you?"
The low moan disappeared instantly, and Lu Yanyou looked puzzled: "Who do you think I am?"
"I'm not telling you, I'm saying..." Xu Zhiqiong pressed his eyebrows and reorganized his thoughts, "I want to do a big thing in Huazhou, and I want to ask my colleagues in Huazhou for help."
Lu Yanyou asked: "What kind of big event?"
Xu Zhiqiong said: "I will completely wipe out the Blood Evil Sect and kill them together with the Evil Star!"
Lu Yanyou was silent for a long time: "Brother, is Nie Xing really in Huazhou?"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "It's not just an evil star, it also has the body of a vicious beast."
"The body of a ferocious beast!" Lu Yanyou was stunned and speechless for a while.
"It shouldn't be, it shouldn't be!" Lu Yanyou shook his head repeatedly, "Zhiqiong, this shouldn't be like this!"
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Lu Changshi, in the Taoist sect, you should not call me by the name of mortals."
Lu Yanyou shook his head and said: "Don't worry about this for now, Zhiqiong, I'm afraid you are wrong about this matter, you are definitely wrong."
The fact that Lu Yanyou could forget the Taoist rules shows how hard this matter affected him!
Xu Zhiqiong frowned and said, "How can you say I made a mistake?"
Lu Yanyou raised his head and said: "If such a big thing really happens, there is no way that there will be no movement from the Huazhou Evil Punishment Department. The Blood Evil Sect and the Ferocious Beast are both our sworn enemies. This matter should have alerted Dujuan Zhongzai long ago."
Xu Zhiqiong said: "Then let's go to the Huazhou Evil Punishment Department and see why there is no movement from them."
"You can go." Lu Yanyou was sweating on his head, more than Xu Zhiqiong. "After you go, you have to listen to me. When I don't let you speak, don't say a word."
explain."
Lu Yanyou took Xu Zhiqiong to Chengfeng Building. This time, the two of them went all the way to the top floor.
There is only one door on the top floor. Lu Yanyou placed the order to punish evil on the door, mobilizing the power of imagery and pouring it into the order to punish evil.
After a quarter of an hour, the door slowly opened a gap. Lu Yanyou pushed the door open and walked in with Xu Zhiqiong into a thick fog.
After walking in the thick fog for nearly an hour, the fog dissipated and they arrived at the door of the Punishment Department.
The size of the Huazhou Punishment Department is similar to that of the Jingcheng Punishment Department. The walls are also as high and the gates are as wide. The only difference is that the Jingcheng Punishment Department can enter and exit at will, while the Huazhou Punishment Department has gatekeepers.
Two seventh-grade judges came forward, looked at Xu Zhiqiong and Lu Yanyou, clasped their fists and asked, "You two comrades don't look like they are from Huazhou."
Lu Yanyou clasped his fists and said, "The two of us are judges from the capital. Let us inform Dai Changshi that we can tell Lu Yanyou that we are old friends and are here to visit."
The seventh-grade judge went in to make a call, and not long after, a sixth-grade judge came out.
"You two, I am Wang Zijun, the housekeeper. On the order of the chief historian, I would like to invite you two to the chief historian's residence to have a talk."
Housekeeping?
Wouldn't that be a butler?
The sixth-grade judge is the housekeeper, and the seventh-grade judge is the gatekeeper!
The Huazhou Punishment Department is such a grand spectacle!
Lu Yanyou glanced at Xu Zhiqiong from time to time.
Brother, don't talk, don't talk.
There's something wrong with this place, you must listen to me.
