Xu Zhiqiong returned to the Punishment Department in a daze. Everyone saw that he was safe and sound, and finally felt relieved.
After a night of fierce fighting, the strange monsters were completely eliminated, and all the judges were indispensable.
Let Xia Hu and Qian Limu handle matters of merit and reward. If one knows how to settle accounts and the other knows how to recognize people, they will definitely do well.
Xu Zhiqiong sneaked into Xia Hu's room and had a good sleep on the fragrant bed.
The domineering spirit can leave the mortal world, and the soul can leave the soul.
It turns out there is such a saying.
However, this proverb can help Xu Zhiqiong solve some important mysteries.
Liang Xiaoen once died in the hands of Xu Zhiqiong. At that time, Xu Zhiqiong took away his sinful karma and summoned his soul through his sinful karma. According to the common sense of this world, this person is already dead.
But Liang Xiaoen was not completely dead, he was resurrected.
Without soul or body, Liang Xiaoen can still be resurrected, which leads to an important concept, which is the so-called Yuanshen.
In other words, if Liang Xiaoen wants to maintain his cultivation after his rebirth, he must find a suitable soul, that is, a soul that can create domineering power.
Yuan Chengfeng nodded and said: "Not only have I heard of it, but I have also seen it. Zhewei Star Officer Liang Xiaoen died in your hands, but his soul escaped."
Xu Zhiqiong asked again: "Is Liang Gongping's soul still there?"
Driven by the mantra, everything Yuan Chengfeng said was true, and these were basically consistent with Xu Zhiqiong's speculations.
Does Yuan Chengfeng know about this?
Xu Zhiqiong came closer and wanted to kiss his wife on the face. When he saw Xia Hu was sorting out the accounts, Xu Zhiqiong stuck his lips out and slowly took it back.
"It was you who cracked Liang Gongping's blood tree, restored Liang Gongping's soul, and let Liang Xiaoen's soul parasitize it?"
Xu Zhiqiong sighed in his heart, in this lady's heart, besides money, she also has merit.
"Rather than being tortured in the underworld and being wiped out in ashes, wouldn't it be a good thing?"
"How much do you know about Hong Juncheng? Why does he have such domineering cultivation?"
"Marquis Yun, I really didn't expect to see you again."
"Liang Gongping's soul is still there, but it was suppressed by Liang Xiaoen and should have fallen asleep in his soul. Whether he can wake up depends on Liang Xiaoen's condition.
If Liang Xiaoen's soul suddenly becomes weak before it merges with his soul, Liang Gongping may really be able to wake up. If Liang Xiaoen's soul completely matches, I don't know where Liang Gongping's soul will go."
What he said he couldn't say should refer to the secrets related to Chaos. When he was alive, these things might not be able to be told. Now only his soul is left. If he told them, he would probably be wiped out.
Liang Xiaoen's actual cultivation level is the fourth level, but it is possible that he used Liang Gongping's soul to restore it to the third level.
Xu Zhiqiong asked the first question: "Have you ever heard of the saying that the domineering spirit can leave the mortal world and the soul can leave the soul?"
Xia Hu added: "Furthermore, those people from the Nufu Sect were already dead when they turned into monsters. I don't know how long they have been dead. Some people's sins were not picked up in time and have all dissipated. If these merits can be compensated,
It costs tens of thousands, where can we get so many meritorious deeds?"
While speaking, Xu Zhiqiong quietly opened the mantra.
It turns out that the rank of the soul is very high, and the requirements for the soul are also very high.
Xu Zhiqiong immediately wrote a document and promised to obtain one million silver within a month, otherwise Xia Hu would cut off Hong Huaxiao and Yinsi's money.
"Not only the soul, but also the body. Liang Gongping's soul and body were taken away by Liang Xiaoen. I can't tell how high Liang Xiaoen is now."
Although Liang Gongping was turned into a blood tree by the Mixing Light technique, his soul still exists in some form.
The soul emerged from the crime. Xu Zhiqiong originally planned to copy the guy, but found that Yuan Chengfeng was very calm.
After escaping the disaster, why should he be reborn through Liang Gongping's soul?
Xu Zhiqiong remembered the story of the public transportation team.
Xia Hu shook his head and said: "Doctor Bai can't provide so many merits. If the merits are not enough, we can only use money to make up for it. Officer, we really can't bear the money on hand."
He had to pass through the soul of the overbearing cultivator to be resurrected, so Yuan Chengfeng helped Liang Xiaoen find Shengci Elder Liang Gongping.
Just think about it, are the savages living a better life than the judges? They really have nowhere else to go."
These two puzzles have the same answer, Hong Juncheng needs Liang Yuyao's soul.
Yuan Chengfeng shook his head repeatedly: "The person in this world that I can't understand the most is Hong Juncheng. I knew that he had a cultivation level that was even higher than mine, but I really didn't expect that he was a cultivator of Canglong Domination.
A domineering cultivator must have the seed blood of the Liang family, and I don’t know where Hong Juncheng’s seed blood comes from.”
Yuan Chengfeng shook his head and said: "If you can have a next life, you have hope. No matter how many years you suffer, you will eventually be able to wait for the day of reincarnation."
Xia Hu brought the teacup and said, "The tea has been brewed for the officials."
Second, why did Hong Juncheng insist on sending Liang Yuyao as envoy to Qiancheng Kingdom?
This confirms Xu Zhiqiong's first guess as to why Liang Xiaoen was able to come back from the dead.
Xia Hu is good at everything, but he is too serious about money matters. If he doesn't explain the accounts clearly today, Xu Zhiqiong will definitely not be able to leave Zhonglang Hall.
Xu Zhiqiong made it clear at the beginning that the judges who stayed in the Taoist sect were rewarded for meritorious service and the judges who asked for money meant that they no longer wanted to take the path of being judges.
"I need to urinate urgently. Madam, have you prepared the chamber pot?"
"Why did you travel thousands of miles to Daxuan Yuanzhou to look for Liang Gongping's soul? But there is no other soul that can replace it?"
He slept for a whole day. When Xu Zhiqiong woke up, he saw Xia Hu studying ink under the lamp.
In other words, the inside of the body is the soul, and the inside of the soul is the soul. The soul no longer has an internal concept, and the soul is the ultimate embodiment of consciousness.
This is also the important puzzle that troubles Xu Zhiqiong.
"When have officials ever been shy? Come on, I will serve you hand in hand."
"It's hard to give meritorious service," Xia Hu shook his head, "This time the whole city is in a strange situation. Those members of the Nufu Sect deserved their death. Their sins can be exchanged for meritorious service.
But why did Hong Juncheng fall in love with Liang Yuyao's soul? Liang Yuyao has not yet reached the fourth level.
In order to prepare for this fierce battle, Xu Zhiqiong bought good equipment for the judge and the charm cultivator, which cost a lot of money.
Four feet and three inches, he waved it in front of Xia Hu.
"I am hungry and want to find something to eat."
Xu Zhiqiong pursed his lips: "This matter cannot be regarded as punishing evil alone. This is a good deed. Doctor Bai is in charge of rewarding good people, so let him do some!"
The Qi of Canglong Ba Dao and Bai Hu Sha Dao comes from the soul.
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said: "Madam, since they don't want money, they just give you merit, but do they still need to settle accounts?"
Xu Zhiqiong smiled and said: "What? Don't you want to see me?"
"How could you not think about it? With your cultivation today, you are still willing to see a prisoner. It is a blessing for Yuan. There is no need to say more polite words. You have something to ask me, right?"
Under the lamps and candles, Xia Hu looked focused and looked even more handsome and lovely.
Xu Zhiqiong handed Xia Hu a handkerchief: "Madam, be more reserved, I have a longer one here."
Xu Zhiqiong rubbed his forehead and said, "Madam, I really need to urinate. Let me go out and relieve myself."
"Are you afraid of torture, or do you really want to give me face?"
"The amount is not small, but the expenses are also huge. To support the entire Qiancheng Punishment Evil Division, we also have to support the more than 200 women under Hong Huaxiao.
Don't forget that there is also the Qiancheng Yinsi. You promised to find a way for them to farm land, plant trees, and mine. But now you haven't come up with a way, and the food and drink expenses are all on us.
"
Xia Hu changed her tone, patted the chair and said, "My lord, you are not in a hurry to urinate at this moment. Sit down first and let's talk about business."
"I'm not afraid of torture. There will be countless tortures in the underworld. I'm afraid that Lord Yun will send me to ashes in a rage."
Xu Zhiqiong hammered the case and said, "These people have impure thoughts. I'm going to teach them a lesson."
Yuan Chengfeng smiled and said: "Then it depends on whether Marquis Yun enforces the law impartially. I will say everything I can say. What I can't say is not that I don't want to say it, but that I can't say it. You also know the reason."
Xia Hu took out the accounts and calculated them one by one with Xu Zhiqiong.
Xu Zhiqiong smiled: "In this case, they are also loyal to the Taoist sect."
Xia Hu prepared pen and paper, and Xu Zhiqiong went to Xingxiu Corridor to take down the sin karma.
"This, this is not embarrassing..."
Xu Zhiqiong laughed twice and said: "I just woke up and am a little thirsty. I went to find some water to drink."
Xu Zhiqiong lowered his face and said, "What if you are never reincarnated?"
Xia Hu sneered: "What are you doing? I'm just a dead soul, how dare I fight you?"
Xu Zhiqiong blinked and said, "After this battle, how many judges will want money?"
"He dares, he really dares, but you don't know how deep this guy's obsession is."
What is special about Liang Yuyao’s soul?
What happened to Hong Juncheng's own soul?
The answers to these puzzles still need to be found from Yuan Chengfeng. The current conclusions are limited to Xu Zhiqiong's speculation, and the specifics need to be verified by Yuan Chengfeng.
"Is Hong Juncheng a member of the Nufu Cult?"
As for the deeper understanding of the soul, Xu Zhiqiong does not know. What he can know at present is that the soul of a normal person cannot leave the soul.
Xu Zhiqiong sat on the chair, feeling uneasy.
Xu Zhiqiong only had a vague understanding of the concept of Yuanshen. It should exist in the soul, the so-called origin of consciousness.
"Ma'am, are you kidding?" Xu Zhiqiong looked at the account, "We still have more than 600,000 silver, which is not a small amount."
Yuan Chengfeng neutralized Liang Gongping's mixed light skill, thus providing Liang Xiaoen with a ready-made soul.
Xu Zhiqiong robbed 5 million taels of silver, spent 3.5 million on building the Evil Punishment Department, and still had 1.5 million left.
The Yinzi matter came to an end for now, Xu Zhiqiong asked Xia Hu to clean up a guest room, and he wanted to interrogate Yuan Chengfeng specifically.
Xu Zhiqiong quietly walked out the door. Xia Hu quietly came behind him and whispered softly: "Master, where are you going?"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "Are you willing to answer?"
It cost a large sum of money to reward the people who participated in the robbery for their merits, another sum of money to buy information from the public transportation team, and another sum of money to buy various food and drink expenses for the criminal punishment department.
"The cakes are ready, sir, go and have two pieces."
First, why is Hong Juncheng so enthusiastic about Liang Yuyao?
The first generation of aberrations had guilty karma, while the second generation of aberrations generally had insufficient karma. Xu Zhiqiong also experienced this personally.
This person's soul is very important. Xu Zhiqiong told Xia Hu: "Madam, you must write down everything he said. If I forget it in the future, please remind me."
This also explains two other mysteries.
The reason why Liang Xiaoen was able to resurrect from the dead was because his cultivation was above that of the mortal world. The domineering cultivator's cultivation was above that of the mortal world, and he gained new abilities. His soul could leave his soul, which allowed Liang Xiaoen to escape.
A calamity passed.
"Official, don't leave," Xia Hu pulled Xu Zhiqiong, "Now that the account has been settled, it's not too late to teach him a lesson."
"Official, I asked you to go out and relieve yourself. I'm afraid you won't come back." Xia Hu took out a chamber pot seriously, "Come on, Official, I'm here to take care of you."
I won a complete victory in the battle to kill the strange monsters, and I wanted to reward them based on their merits. I still had more than 600,000 yuan left on hand, which was a bit tight.
Xia Hu shook his head and said: "No judge wants to quit the Taoist sect."
"This one is really long!" Xia Hu pursed her lips and her throat trembled twice.
But there are many ordinary people who were killed by strange monsters and became strange monsters. Their sins were not enough, so they should not be allowed to suffer, and they could not redeem their merits. However, the judge who killed the strange monsters had done his best, and so
Even if they risk their lives, who can claim their merits from them?"
He really wished he could release Yuan Chengfeng's soul right now, but he couldn't resist his tiredness, so he closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Yuan Chengfeng smiled and said: "Marquis Yun is willing to give me a favor, how can there be any reason not to respond?"
Yuan Chengfeng said: "Liang Xiaoen himself has a fourth-level cultivation level. At his peak, he once had a first-level cultivation level. His soul was so powerful that souls below the fourth level could not carry it, and souls above the fourth level were nowhere to be found.
"
He released Yuan Chengfeng's soul from his sinful karma. The moment before he was released, Xu Zhiqiong opened his posture and prepared for battle.
Xia Hu said with a look of surprise: "Is there anything longer than this one? If it is longer than this one, together, it can be exchanged for a thousand meritorious deeds."
Xia Hu shook his head: "Loyalty is out of the question. These people have discussed it privately. The laws of Qiancheng Kingdom are very strict. These people have already died once in the world. Without legal status, they can only go to the mountains to become savages."
Yuan Chengfeng shook his head again: "Hong Juncheng hated the Nufu Cult extremely. When he was in his prime, he sent out the Shenji Division to destroy it several times. In his later years, he seemed to be more lenient."
"What is your status in Nufu Cult?"
Yuan Chengfeng said: "I am one of the five divisions of Nufu, the chief minister."
"Are you the chief minister?" Xu Zhiqiong was stunned.
