Chapter 106 The Grass Man

At this time, Tao Xiaowu's expression became strange.

I didn't expect that all these ancestral temple ritual utensils are recorded in archives. I'm afraid the secret will be exposed.

Tao Xiaowu's heart was racing, and he was thinking about asking Qiu Shan to find a way to hide some ritual objects.

However, now there are too many people and the entire ancestral temple has been sealed off. No matter how talented Qiu Shan is, he can't do it, so Tao Xiaowu can only watch the count.

I thought to myself, at worst, I would have to admit my mistake to those courtesy officials. I just said that I only had doubts in my mind when I saw them bribe me.

Just when I thought of this, I heard someone report: Junhou, three bronze tripods, two bronze Yi coins, more than ten wine vessels, and seven jade bis are missing from the ancestral temple.

Let me go, these guys are really stealing from themselves! And they are so brave.

You know, it has only been a few months since the Yangfuhou Ancestral Temple was established, and these guys have already stolen so many things.

Is this seeking death?

But they don't know that although Taichang is important, he doesn't handle money and is quite poor.

In particular, these Taichang Li officials who were sent to the county were all unlucky ghosts who could not survive in Shenluo, and they were even more miserable in the Houfu ancestral temple.

Apart from offering sacrifices and serving the ancestors in the ancestral temple, they have no power at all.

The princes' mansion would treat people like Tao Xiaowu as one of their own, but the ceremonial officials sent by the imperial court with the responsibility of checking and balancing the princes would naturally not be treated as such.

These guys have no income at all except a normal salary.

Moreover, that income was still distributed by the Shenluo Imperial Court and was not under the control of the Marquis Mansion.

It would be strange if the Taichang officials in Shenluo didn't deduct their salaries for the unlucky ones sent abroad.

Therefore, it is completely normal for these ritual officials to secretly sell sharp weapons.

This kind of thing has been caught all over the world not once or twice!

It turns out that you guys really have unclean hands and feet, so it doesn’t mean that I have wronged you! Tao Xiaowu thought to himself.

But they saw the ceremony officials all slumped to the ground, trembling all over.

The court's laws are strict, and these guys may only end up being beheaded!

It's hard to live in this world. If you don't harm others, they will harm you.

Besides, these officials who are too often polite are Confucian scholars. They are my enemies rather than friends. It’s only my fault that you Confucian scholars insist on causing trouble for me!

Tao Xiaowu comforted himself and said.

Thank you for the wine sacrifice. If it weren't for the wine sacrifice, I really wouldn't have known that there were so many rats in the house.

I will definitely report this matter to the Emperor and let him seek justice with me!

Yang Fuhou smiled.

These ceremony officials are all court officials, and even Yang Fuhou has no power to deal with them.

But come to think of it, after reporting it to the emperor, these guys probably won’t survive!

The Lord and Lord have entrusted me with the sacrificial work. How dare I fail to do my best to repay the Lord and Lord for his kindness? Tao Xiaowu said respectfully.

Yang Fuhou laughed when he heard this.

I just like how you take credit but are not arrogant

The farce continued until dawn. Even after returning to the courtyard of his residence, Tao Xiaowu did not dare to rest.

After being delayed all night last night, no one knew when those Confucian scholars would use their magic to deal with him!

Moreover, Tao Xiaowu didn't know what kind of spell the other party cast.

The sacrifice spell can only see the image of the solution to the problem, but it cannot see the image of the other person's own image.

Therefore, Tao Xiaowu has a great sense of urgency.

After returning home, I started making a straw man.

This straw man also has special techniques and witchcraft, which is quite complicated.

Tao Xiaowu was originally worried that he would not be able to compile it, but he did not expect that when he actually did it, it would be like God's help.

It feels as if I have knitted it thousands of times, and I am very familiar with it!

In the blink of an eye, those cocoa grasses had turned into a delicate straw man that appeared in his hand.

Tao Xiaowu chanted a mantra and dropped a little blood from his fingertips into the straw man.

At this moment, suddenly, a vast consciousness came down, and then a little flame suddenly arose from the darkness, as pale as ice.

It looked as if the flames on the altar were immersed in the straw man and disappeared when the sacrificial technique was cast.

Is this done?

Tao Xiaowu looked at the straw man who seemed to have not changed much, with surprise in his eyes.

He still can't understand this kind of witchcraft.

But according to logic, this straw man should have completed the sacrifice.

At this time, Tao Xiaowu carefully took the straw man with him.

Now, his life depends entirely on this thing. He can't help but be careless!

After finishing all this, Tao Xiaowu cautiously breathed a sigh of relief.

From now on, he will not dare to practice.

There are enemies watching eagerly, and they may take action against him at any time. If someone casts a spell to attack him while practicing, that would be called bad luck!

Although he didn't sleep all night, Tao Xiaowu felt strong and energetic, but he didn't feel sleepy.

Right now I just meditate and sit quietly with my eyes closed.

Back when he was near the water, Tao Xiaowu could get there in half a day just by sitting down.

At this time, my practice is deepening day by day, my soul is strong, and my mind is just moving. I visualize a deep pool appearing in my heart, which is so deep and dark that it seems to have no bottom.

This is the heart pool!

Layers of fine waves rippled on the surface of the pitch-black pool, and the trees seemed to be still but the wind was still blowing. These were countless small and chaotic thoughts.

This is the case when you sit quietly. Big thoughts are easy to stop, but these small thoughts are so difficult to stop.

However, as a bright light appeared in the pond, it shone down and immediately froze the pond.

The inner pool becomes as smooth as a mirror, without any ripples.

In the pool of his heart, a vague figure was reflected.

When the shadow in my heart becomes clear, I will become a ghost!

Tao Xiaowu observed in his heart, but such a thought came to his mind, and his whole heart became turbulent again.

He immediately stopped his thoughts, and his heart calmed down again, reflecting everything.

The next moment, the deep pool suddenly swallowed Tao Xiaowu, and he appeared in Niwan's legal domain.

The nimbus formed by the Hou Mansion's luck became larger and larger, firmly occupying the sky, squeezing the sun and moon nimbus, hiding on both sides like an angry little daughter-in-law.

This also shows that the most powerful force in Tao Xiaowu now is the luck of the Marquis.

However, the energy of the sun and moon that he consumed was far less than that, so he was pushed to both sides.

The only thing that has changed is that there is an additional altar in the Niwan legal domain.

On the altar, there is a flame burning like a flower blooming, but it is steady and does not jump at all.

The flame looked very familiar, and Tao Xiaowu could tell at a glance that it was the flame of the sacrifice technique.

What's even more strange is that in the pale flames, there is a figure that looks exactly like Tao Xiaowu.
