The national master was sitting there with a smile on his face, kind and peaceful, with a solemn Dharma appearance, and the air of an enlightened man. At first glance, he looked like a Bodhisattva rescuing people from suffering.
It's just that such a gesture can hide it from others, but it can't hide it from Li Xiuyuan.
Li Xiuyuan was very wary of him from beginning to end.
"Master Li, I really came here late at night today to inform you of something important. Because Mr. Li, you are a born saint. If you send some eunuchs like last time, it would be disrespectful for a small official to come. Therefore, I am here in person this time.
, to show respect." The Imperial Master smiled slightly and put his hands together.
road.
Li Xiuyuan was silent and looked at him quietly.
"But before that, I would like to congratulate Mr. Li for successfully slaying the ghost foreman and taking over the divine power of Lord Yan. From now on, all the evil spirits in the world will no longer be your opponent, Mr. Li." said the Imperial Master.
.
Li Xiuyuan said: "The strength of the magic power does not determine the degree of harm of a ghost. In my opinion, the evil intention is the greatest harm. What do you think, National Master?"
The Imperial Master smiled and said, "This makes sense. The saint's wisdom is still extraordinary, but congratulations should still be made."
"Can the Imperial Master get down to business? It's getting very late today. I spent the whole night fighting with those ghosts and monsters, and I'm really tired. I hope I can fall asleep early today. I also promised my friends to go on a trip on the Lantern Festival tomorrow.
." Li Xiuyuan said.
The Imperial Master said: "But it's not a very serious matter. This is a good thing. Wouldn't Mr. Li be deliberately made difficult by the officials when he went to Beijing to report on his duties, so that he was delayed in reporting on his duties? I have been doing this for the past few days.
Mr. Li has cleared the road. Today the official decree has been issued. Next morning, Mr. Li will go to court.
Remember to wear official uniform and enter the palace to attend the court meeting."
After saying that, he took out a roll of imperial edict from his sleeve and gestured.
The little eunuch on the side held the imperial edict and carefully brought it up with his head lowered.
Li Xiuyuan took a look and saw that the little eunuch's eyes were dark, and his eyes did not look like a living person, but like centipedes.
"Has the official decree come down? I just don't know when the next morning court meeting will be? I only know that in the Song Dynasty, the imperial edict is held every five days, and such decrees often change."
He opened the imperial edict, and it indeed said that he should enter the palace to report on his duties.
However, this is not the emperor's own decree, but the decree issued by Zhongshu Shengfa, which is stamped with the emperor's jade seal.
The Imperial Master said: "The next court meeting will be in three days. If Mr. Li is afraid of forgetting me, he can send someone to remind me on that day."
In fact, the court meeting will be in three days, but the debriefing does not necessarily have to be at the court meeting.
If we can prevent Li Xiuyuan from killing the ghost foreman this time, we can report on our work now.
"I appreciate the kindness of the Imperial Preceptor. How could I forget it in the morning court three days later?" Li Xiuyuan cupped his fists and saluted; "Thanks to the Imperial Preceptor for helping me in the court this time, otherwise I don't know how long I would have to stay in the capital.
Don't be like some officials who are stuck in the capital because of the issue of reporting their duties.
For ten years, I will not be allowed to serve as an official outside the country until the day I die."
No matter what, it is still necessary to make peace with this national master.
"If you stay in the capital for a long time, you are not allowed to report on your duties. That's just a stupid official deliberately making things difficult for the sake of money. Such a thing can happen to others, how can it happen to you, Mr. Li? If any official dares to make things difficult for Mr. Li,
I can express my anger for Mr. Li, and I promise not to let him go.
Mr. Li, you are disappointed."
The Imperial Master squinted his eyes slightly, and there was a faint cold light.
He wished those officials would offend Li Xiuyuan more.
If you offend this saint, you will lose your own merit. If the damage is almost done, you can take advantage of the opportunity and kill them one by one.
"The Imperial Master is so violent, so he doesn't look like a cultivator." Li Xiuyuan joked, "A cultivator should be open-minded and pay attention to virtue."
"Young Master Li is right, but mortals have their anger, and Buddhism also has its angry-eyed Vajra, right?" the national master said with a slight smile.
While the two were talking.
Somewhere outside the capital.
A figure shuttled through the forest at an unreasonable speed. This figure was extremely agile, running in the dense forest as if walking on flat ground, just like a tiger, leopard or ape, showing very superb martial arts.
But he didn't dare to stop at all, and kept running, as if he was avoiding something.
"Boom~!"
A thunder suddenly exploded, the lightning flashed, and the thunder fell, striking towards the figure.
"Damn it, you're still chasing me." The black figure quickly dodged and rolled forward several times in a strange way.
The thunder failed and hit the ground somewhere in the forest, exploding into a mud pit and a charred area.
"Boom~!"
Thunder rolled in the sky, strong winds swept across, and a dark cloud flew in, covering the direction in which the black shadow fled. It seemed that wherever he fled, the thunder clouds in the sky ran to him, and the thunder that fell was only aimed at him alone.
He showed the slightest flaw, it was a divine lightning strike
Down.
But this person was really weird. He had already dodged three divine thunders and failed to kill him.
"Black Tiger Spirit, do you really think that I don't recognize you? Your soul has hidden in a human body, but your evil aura cannot be hidden from my eyes. You are hiding at the dock and waiting for an opportunity to murder someone.
Saint, do you want to seize the power of God? This God will not let you get what you want." Among the dark clouds, a statue was completely red.
The red, sharp-mouthed and monkey-cheeked Thunder God roared angrily.
He tapped the thunder cone in his hand, accumulating thunder and lightning, ready for a fatal blow at any time.
The one the Ghost Swallowing Thunder Duke was chasing was none other than Shi Hu, who had been dormant for a long time.
He is also a well-known Black Mountain old demon among the demons.
"I'll tell you if you can kill me, but I tell you, you will regret it if you chase me again." Shi Hu smiled coldly, but continued to run away without raising his head.
"Where to escape?"
The Ghost Swallowing Thunder Lord controls the strong wind and thunder, and he has the intention of not giving up until he kills the stone tiger.
Shi Hu's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he thought to himself: "This bad guy's plan, I finally caught a chance to avenge my shame and directly stand up and take charge, but this guy messed up the plan."
"Since you are seeking death today, don't blame me for being so cruel. I will chop off your thunderous head today."
Immediately, he ran out of the woods and came to the farmland outside, looking around.
His eyes glowed in the darkness, like a fierce tiger, looking particularly dangerous in the dark night.
"Found it." Shi Hu continued to run away, and finally came to a cesspit.
This was dug and built by the people nearby and was used by people who worked in daily life. Although there are not many people using it now when it is not busy in farming, there is still a lot of filth left.
"Boom~!"
Another thunder struck, this one unmistakable and unavoidable.
"Go away."
Shihu roared, and a fierce tiger suddenly appeared and let out a shocking tiger roar.
This roar actually pushed the thunder away, turned around and hit the cesspit next to it.
Immediately, a foul air exploded and spread all over the sky.
"Thunder Lord, your death has come." Shi Hu opened his mouth and spat out, strong winds blew up, and the filth in the sky swept into the sky and rushed towards the thunder clouds in the sky.
"Not good~!" Thunder Lord Tungui was shocked.
The filthy air surged forward and was unavoidable. It instantly dispersed the dark clouds and extinguished the thunder.
Even his magic power failed, and he immediately stopped obeying his orders. He fell directly from the sky, and finally fell into the fields in a state of embarrassment, his body covered with stench and mud.
"Keep chopping, keep chopping. Aren't you very capable? You can't chop now." Shi Huyan pulled out a sharp sword from his waist and walked over with a grin.
The Ghost Tuning Lei Gong shook his groggy head and was about to stand up, but was kicked to the ground by Shi Hu, and then a steel knife was placed on his neck.
"I really think that your thunder god in the sky can defeat all ghosts and spirits in the world. Don't think that I don't know that your thunder god also has weaknesses. The most powerful thunder god in the world is afraid of the filth in the world, including feces and urine.
If you are soaked in the rain, the God of Thunder will be polluted, and you will not be able to use your most powerful skills."
Shi Hu held the steel knife in his hand and patted the Ghost Thunder Duke's cheek, and sneered: "If you want to return to the sky, you have to wait for a heavy rain. Only rootless water can wash away the filth on your body. This is not enough, but also
Mortals need to burn incense and worship, because your magic power has been polluted, and you need to use the power of that incense to
Can fly."
"When you reach heaven, you can use thunder and lightning to cleanse your body and fully recover."
"But now, there is no such chance." After Shi Hu finished speaking, he kicked the Ghost Swallowing Thunder Duke over, stepped on his back, and raised the steel knife in his hand.
Lord Tungui Thunder was completely powerless, and his eyes glowed angrily.
He was too careless. He only wanted to chase this monster, but ignored his abilities. He didn't expect that this tiger monster actually knew his own weaknesses so clearly.
"Li Xiuyuan's immortal-killing knife has killed countless ghosts and spirits. Today I also want to try what it feels like to kill the God of Thunder." Shi Hu raised the steel knife in his hand and was about to chop it down.
But suddenly, an exclamation came from the roadside: "Ah, kill, kill someone."
A hawker on the official road who came to Beijing early saw a stone tiger stepping on a man in the fields and trying to chop him. He fell to the ground in fright and screamed.
"Kill someone? You see clearly, I am killing the God of Thunder." Shi Hu still struck down with his sword.
Immediately, a thunder exploded, as if a thunderbolt flew out of the body of the Ghost Swallowing Thunder Lord and went straight to the nine heavens.
Then the Ghost Tuning Thunder Lord's head immediately rolled down.
Accompanied by a burst of sulfur, the smell of coke immediately overflowed, and the body of Thunder Lord Tungui changed, turning into a headless rooster.
Shi Hu took one look, took a sip, and then left immediately without wanting to stay long.
When the God of Thunder is killed, the Thunder Department in the Heavenly Palace will immediately notice that he does not want to be chopped into charcoal.
