The moment the mountain ghost disappeared, Xiao Yi stopped chanting, but Gu Cheng was stunned.
It was not because he had any emotion, but because when the mountain ghost dissipated, there was a force that actively poured into Gu Cheng's body.
It was a very familiar force. It was the Yin Qi brought by killing demons and ghosts. After expanding part of the black jade space, it poured directly into Gu Cheng's body. Although it did not increase his physical strength, it allowed him to
The state of Qi refining has jumped from the late stage of Qi training to the state of spiritual nourishment.
At this moment, Gu Cheng's perception increased several times. It was a strange feeling. Everything around him was clearly visible. Even some of the yin energy in Lijia Village that had not had time to dissipate appeared in Gu Cheng's eyes.
before.
Gu Cheng let out a sigh of relief. He understood that this was a gift from the mountain ghost.
Although she turned into a ghost, she still had a trace of humanity, so she was able to resist harming the people in Lijia Village who had not bullied her in the ancestral hall.
Gu Cheng avenged her, and she gave her power back to Gu Cheng at the last moment before she disappeared.
Xiao Yi walked forward, picked up the ugly-looking scarecrow, and suddenly let out a long sigh.
"Can't you see some of them?"
Xiao Yi nodded, with a look of confusion in his eyes.
"When the Commander-in-Chief rescued me, he told me that by joining Jingyesi and suppressing the demons, I would be able to gain peace.
But now I suddenly have a feeling that humans are more terrifying than demons and ghosts.
People kill more people than demons kill."
Gu Cheng patted Xiao Yi on the shoulder and said: "Don't think so much, whether it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, these things cannot be solved even if you sacrifice your life.
So all you can do is say these four words, with no regrets in your heart."
After giving Xiao Yi a bowl of chicken soup, Gu Cheng directed the people at the Luo County government office to count the losses and rescue people.
Young people like Xiao Yi just like to get into trouble, and there are always times when they can't think straight.
Occasionally, I choose some non-toxic chicken soup and drink it. Although it can't solve anything, at least it gives me some comfort.
After counting those in the county government, there were more than 200 people in Lijia Village, and now only 33 people were left alive.
After those people knew that they were saved by Gu Cheng this time, they were all very excited and wanted to build a longevity tablet for Gu Cheng to express their gratitude, but Gu Cheng refused.
He is still alive and well, but he always feels a little awkward when someone sets up a memorial tablet to worship him.
And he didn't have time to delay. After leaving the matter here to Zhao Jingming and the Luo County officials, Gu Cheng immediately went back to retreat to regain his strength, because he still had one person left to kill.
Yu Baiqian!
When a hunter is hunting, it is very foolish to kill a tiger and leave the cubs behind, because the cubs will remember their enemies, and when the hunters go up the mountain again, their adult sharp claws will tear apart their enemies.
It is even more stupid to kill the cubs but leave the tiger behind, because the tiger will take the initiative to come down the mountain to seek revenge on you.
To cut weeds, we need to get rid of the roots, but hundreds and thousands of Yus will not die, and Gu Cheng will have trouble sleeping and eating.
Daoxuanzong was wiped out by him. Not to mention that he was just Jingyesi's night watchman, even if he was the commander-in-chief, the other party would probably go crazy and come to seek revenge from him.
Naturally, Yu Baiqian didn't know that his sect had been wiped out.
At this time, he had just participated in the Zhou family's treasure appraisal meeting and was happily drinking wine in the restaurant.
Although he couldn't understand anything presented by the Zhou family during the treasure appraisal conference, the people present were all senior masters of the Taoist sect, and there were even Taoist sect masters who came from the Baiyun Temple in the capital. He took advantage of this opportunity.
At this time, I made a lot of friends with this group of people.
Although in the eyes of those people, Yu Baiqian was just a wild Taoist priest from a small place in Heyang Prefecture and did not have much inheritance, in Yu Baiqian's view, these were all great connections.
At this time, a Xuanjia guard from Jingyesi suddenly entered the restaurant. After seeing Yu Baiqian, he immediately stepped forward and whispered: "Sect Master Yu, my lord has something to tell you."
Yu Baiqian recognized the other party. He was the Xuanjia Guard of Jingyesi in Fengyuan County.
"Oh? What happened to your family that made you have to come all the way here to tell me?"
Yu Baiqian's attitude towards the Xuanjia guard was a little loose. Of course, even if Chen Chongshan came, his attitude would not be much better.
It's not that he looked down on Jing Yesi, he just looked down on Chen Chongshan.
The other party's position as night watchman came to the position because of Dao Xuanzong. To put it bluntly, Chen Chongshan was a dog raised by Dao Xuanzong. He fed him meat by himself, just to let the other party guard the gate.
Without the support of Dao Xuanzong, even if Jingyesi of Heyang Prefecture was short of people, he would not be able to take the position of night watchman.
The Xuanjia guard hesitated for a moment and said, "Sect Master Yu, please be mentally prepared first."
Yu Baiqian frowned and said: "You are hesitant, what's wrong?"
"Daoxuanzong was destroyed!"
"What did you say!?"
Yu Baiqian seemed to be in disbelief and looked at the Xuanjia guard with a look of shock and anger.
After the Xuanjia guard explained what had happened, Yu Baiqian's complexion suddenly turned from red to white, and then from white to red again. He was so angry that a mouthful of blood spurted out.
The other guests in the restaurant looked at Yu Baiqian in horror.
Can you vomit blood after drinking alcohol? Is this wine poisonous?
"Gu Cheng!"
Yu Baiqian let out a shrill roar, the sound was like a cuckoo crying for blood, containing endless anger and murderous intent.
With a movement of his body, he jumped out of the window of the restaurant.
When the shopkeeper of the restaurant saw this scene, he didn't even dare to chase him out to ask for money for the drink, for fear that the other party would really blackmail him.
………………
In a small valley outside Heyang Mansion, Gu Cheng took off Jingyesi's black armor, put on ordinary black clothes, and waited with his sword in his arms.
Rather than sit back and wait for death, it is better to take action.
Taking action in Luo County would also affect other people, so it would be better to rob and kill Yu Baiqian directly here, so that the other party cannot even enter Heyang Mansion.
Gu Cheng didn't bring anyone with him this time, because it would be useless if he did. This was destined to be a fierce battle.
The information given to him by the Zhou family also included information about Yu Baiqian.
Before the other party came to Heyang Mansion and joined Daoxuan Sect, he had already learned from him, and he was from an orthodox Taoist sect.
With a peak level of cultivation in the Seventh Level of Qi Refining and Contemplation and a master of left-handed secret techniques, he is very difficult to deal with.
The other practitioners of Daoxuanzong specialize in the secret arts of the Left Dao, and their cultivation is equivalent to rootless duckweeds. They may be difficult to deal with in some aspects, but as long as they identify their weaknesses, they can almost kill them with one strike.
Yu Baiqian, on the other hand, majors in Qi training and minors in left-handed secret techniques. He has both good and strange skills, which is like the icing on the cake, adding several points to his power.
According to the Zhou family's information, although Yu Baiqian did not have a record of killing sixth-grade practitioners, he did have a record of fighting against sixth-grade Blood Surge Realm warriors without losing.
For an opponent of this level, the arrival of others would only distract Gu Cheng. It would be better for him to fight the opponent alone.
Gu Cheng had also thought about setting up some kind of trap before, but he was overturned.
The Qi Refiner's spiritual sense is too powerful. Gu Cheng's cultivation in Qi Refining has only reached the level of spiritual cultivation. He found that his perception was several times stronger, let alone Yu Baiqian who had reached the peak of visualization.
.
So Gu Cheng didn't use any of those fancy things, and just decided to win or lose, and decide life and death.
The sound of horse hooves came from far and near, and Yu Baiqian was full of murderous intent. He just wanted to return to Daoxuan Sect quickly to see if there were any surviving disciples.
Of course, what he wanted to do most was to kill Gu Cheng!
However, when he saw Gu Cheng standing in the middle of the valley, Yu Baiqian was stunned. Perhaps he never expected that Gu Cheng would take the initiative to wait for him here.
"Gu Cheng! You actually dare to take the initiative to rob and kill me!? You are really so arrogant!"
Yu Baiqian's face was full of murderous anger. He clenched the whisk in his hand like a knife, wanting to stab Gu Cheng to death right now.
It would be better for Gu Cheng to appear here. Kill him first and then use his head to pay tribute to Daoxuanzong!
Unlike Yu Baiqian, who was frightened and angry, Gu Cheng looked calmly and said at this time:
"Sect Master Yu, I said, you and I will meet again.
I am here today to see you off on your way.
The seven elders of Daoxuan Sect are all waiting for you below. They walked very peacefully. You should hurry up, but no one is waiting on the bridge."
