The member of the Goddess Society smiled coldly and took advantage of the situation to punch Chen Jianzi in the face. Chen Jianzi's eyesight went black and he staggered back.
Although Chen Jianzi has good cultivation and is a decisive person, she has been pampered over the years and has not fought with many people. She does not have much practical experience and has not learned many magical powers. At this time, she is at a disadvantage.
On the other hand, the members of the Goddess Society have gone through life and death for the Goddess Society. They have countless lives on their hands and are rich in experience. Once they gain the upper hand, they will kill Chen Jianzi at every turn. Even if they cannot use magic, it is enough to kill Chen Jianzi.
Chen Jianzi is getting more and more desperate. If he had known this, it would be better to fall into the hands of the Taoist sect, cooperate honestly, and get a lenient sentence. Whether it is exile or hard labor, after all, it is better to save a life than to be killed and silenced.
.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a childish voice saying, "Stop it."
That member of the Goddess Society was indeed a professional, but turned a deaf ear and continued to kill.
However, he suddenly felt that his belt seemed to be grabbed from behind, and because the force of his forward thrust was too great, the belt broke directly, so his pants fell directly down and piled up at his ankles, not only stumbling, but also
Two hairy legs were also exposed.
This made the members of the Goddess Society very angry. They had to lift up their pants with one hand, assume a defensive posture, and at the same time glance at the position behind them.
At some point, a little girl appeared behind him, holding half of a broken belt in her hand. She probably grabbed him from behind and put him in such an embarrassing situation.
The members of the Goddess Society were neither arrogant nor ignorant, so he smelled danger.
The little girl pointed at Chen Jianzi and said carelessly, "She is mine, you can go."
The goddess member frowned and made no move.
This little girl is Xiao Yin.
Seeing that the golden-haired ghost refused to leave, she raised her eyebrows and asked, "Don't you understand human language?"
In fact, what she wanted to say was, it's enough for Zhang Yuelu to bully me. Do you still want to bully me?
Don’t you know that Miss Yin is the fourth master of the Ghost Kingdom’s Cave Heaven?
Chen Jianzi breathed a sigh of relief. Although this little girl was weird, from her tone, she seemed to be from the Taoist sect. Chen Jianzi vaguely heard that there was a little girl following Master Qi. Could it be her? Luo Luo
It is better to be in the hands of Daomen than to be silenced.
The members of the Goddess Society stood up and stabbed Xiao Yin with their swords.
Rich experience cannot make up for the huge gap in strength. Xiao Yin opened his mouth and bit the rapier. His teeth were like copper and iron, and he chewed the rapier into pieces.
When the members of the Goddess Society saw this, they were horrified and subconsciously turned around and ran away.
Xiao Yin is not easy to talk to. Just now you didn’t do anything to me, I could indeed let you go. Now you do something to me, huh, want to escape? How can such a good thing happen!
In Chen Jianzi's sight, Xiao Yin began to "get taller" like a shadow stretched by the setting sun, but she was still short-handed and short-legged, only her mouth was getting bigger and bigger, like a dark portal.
Xiao Yin opened her mouth and sucked in, creating a huge suction force. Not to mention running away, the members of the Goddess Society even began to retreat uncontrollably.
Amidst the screams of the members of the Goddess Society, Xiao Yin swallowed him whole.
When Chen Jianzi saw this scene, he was so frightened that his face turned pale, he was speechless, and his two legs even trembled.
Although Chen Jianzi has been in the Lion City for many years and has been exposed to some so-called dark scenes, she has never seen this kind of swallowing.
After Xiao Yin swallowed what was in her mouth, she returned to her original size, but she frowned and realized that the matter was not simple. She retched first, and then vomited out many metal parts that had been corroded beyond recognition.
There is also some black water with unknown ingredients.
Xiao Yin said "bah bah" a few times, thinking to herself that monsters are more delicious.
Then Xiao Yin came to Chen Jianzi who was lying on the ground, looked her up and down, and sniffed to confirm that the smell was correct.
This scared Chen Jianzi to death, fearing that this little devil was going to eat him.
Xiao Yin didn't waste any time, picked up Chen Jianzi and went to Zhang Yuelu to receive the reward.
Neither Qi Xuansu nor Zhang Yuelu expected Xiao Yin to be so agile. It only took half a day to find Chen Jianzi and arrest him, not to mention three days.
This made the two of them look at Xiao Yin with admiration. Qi Xuansu praised him without hesitation, "You are much more reliable than the Taoist spiritual officials under me. If I could make the decision, I would have to make you the deputy palace master."
Zhang Yuelu was also in a good mood. She was a person who kept her promises. Not only did she fulfill her promises, but she also rewarded Xiao Yin with an additional five hundred peace coins. Things are different now. Zhang Yuelu is no longer the poor girl she used to be. As the third member of the Zhang family,
Even Lin Yuanmiao, a leader of the era, could afford to support him, let alone a mere few hundred dollars. This was something Qi Xuansu could not compare to.
Xiao Yin was also in a good mood. She spent the fifteen hundred Taiping money in three days, which is the cost of five hundred Taiping money a day. What kind of magical day is this? Go to the largest theater to book a theater and sing for her alone. She can listen to whatever she wants.
How to listen.
In order to prevent another accident at Beichen Hall, and also to
To keep it secret, Qi Xuansu decided to interrogate Chen Jianzi in person.
It's just that after Chen Jianzi was almost silenced, she had already figured it out. Before Qi Xuansu could use any coercion or inducement, she took the initiative to express that she would actively cooperate and only asked the Taoist government to spare her life.
According to Chen Jianzi, the person who contacted the Goddess Association through her was named Lin Qingcheng, who was Wang Jiaoying's secretary.
The secretary's rank is not high, but he is close to power and can even represent power. In front of the deputy palace master, he is the secretary, but in front of outsiders, he is the incarnation of the deputy palace master, or even the deputy palace master himself.
These people often wield great power.
Take Chen Jianchou as an example. He has not passed the major examination and has no official rank. But just because he is Qi Xuansu's secretary, who wouldn't give him three points? When Xie Jiaofeng met him, he was a brother-in-law. How many people hoped to get through?
Chen Jianchou's career path is so good that he can climb the high branches of Qi Zhenren.
You must know that not everyone can meet Qi Xuansu casually. This is not because Qi Xuansu is deliberately showing off, but a threshold must be set. Otherwise, he will not have to do anything else every day except to meet guests and drink tea. Who can meet and who cannot
Meeting, when to meet, whose hand is in the control of this? Of course it is in the hands of the secretary.
Do the people below dare not to fawn over? Do they dare to offend?
To put it bluntly, many high-quality Taoist priests spend more time with their secretaries than with their Taoist companions. If you really want to blow the whistle, it is not difficult to get things done, and it is even easier to ruin other people's affairs.
As Wang Jiaohe's brother, Wang Jiaoying undoubtedly has a lot of power. Although the real person in charge of the government does not take care of things, Wang Jiaohe is the number one person in the Taoist government, and Chen Shuhua is the second person in the Taoist government.
Then Wang Jiaoying is the well-deserved third person. His secretary is of course very important.
It makes sense for him to take the initiative to contact Chen Jianzi.
If you touch this secretary, it will easily arouse the vigilance of the Wang family.
Qi Xuansu discussed it with Zhang Yuelu and Li Zhuyu.
Li Zhuyu's opinion was that Beichen Tang would come forward and take him down directly.
Zhang Yuelu put forward a different opinion: "Logically speaking, it is indeed the responsibility of Beichen Hall to eliminate the traitors. There is no problem for Beichen Hall to come forward to arrest them, but it is easy to alert the snake. Considering that we are secretly arresting Chen Jianzi
, Whether it is a traitor within us or an external force, we cannot be sure of it in a short period of time and will not respond immediately. Therefore, my opinion is that Feng Xiantang will come forward and take down him in the name of disciplinary issues.
It’s safer this way.”
Qi Xuansu thought for a moment and said, "It's not that the Nanyang United Trade
Is Yi Company the pocketbook of many people? It is also said that many people in the government like to reimburse expenses at Nanyang United Trading Company, so we will start from the point of reimbursement, make a fuss about reimbursement, and make a long list.
Lin Qingcheng's name was mixed into this list, and then people from Feng Xiantang were asked to talk to the people on the list respectively, and then they were taken down in one fell swoop. It was announced that Lin Qingcheng was also under investigation for corruption. Now Jiang Daren is still in Thanglong Palace.
, neither Wang Jiaoying nor Wang Jiaohe can make big waves."
Li Zhuyu had to agree with this plan.
Qi Xuansu said, "It just so happens that Yao Suyi is in Shenglong Mansion now and asked Lu Yuting to issue a list. I will inform Yao Suyi and Xu Fuli to take action immediately without further delay."
As for Chen Jianzi, Qi Xuansu had her secretly imprisoned and kept under strict supervision to prevent her from dying or escaping. During the final trial, she was asked to testify.
At the same time, Qi Xuansu also kept his promise and spared her life. When you perform meritorious service and atone for your sins, you cannot break your promise. If you die no matter what, many people will choose to fight to the end instead of pleading guilty and cooperating, and things will be difficult to handle in the future. So Qi Xuansu
It was decided that after the incident in Nanyang was over, she would be sent to Kunlun Taoist Temple to practice Taoism.
If these prisoners with good cultivation skills are to be exiled, it is not possible to exile them to some remote areas. There are not so many people to guard them, and it is easy for them to find opportunities to escape. The only way is to exile them to Kunlun Daofu, Kunlun
The foot is naturally heavily guarded, with a quarter of the Taoist sect's spiritual officers deployed here, and Kunlun is the core of the Taoist sect, with countless experts, and no prisoner can afford to make trouble.
Over the years, Daomen has been expanding Yujing intermittently. It cannot be said that it is expanding Yujing. In fact, it is opening up some areas around Kunlun to build new cities, diverting traffic, separating some less important functions, and reducing the pressure on Yujing. Therefore,
It is necessary to carry out large-scale construction and build palaces and temples.
This requires manpower. Of course, ordinary civilians are not as good as such prisoners with high cultivation. Therefore, in recent years, Taoism has treated these prisoners with good cultivation and adhered to the concept of not killing people if they can be exiled, and let them all go to Kunlun.
It doesn’t cost a penny to go to a Taoist temple to practice Taoism, so why not do it?
If you perform outstandingly and repent during the period of hard labor, your sentence can be reduced appropriately, and you may be freed after a few decades. This also gives the prisoners something to think about, so as not to carry it to death.
There are also people whose cultivation level is too high and whose scope of action must be strictly controlled, or those who have committed too serious crimes and it is difficult to kill them directly. Then choose one of the three caves of the Demon Suppressing Well, the Demon Locking Tower, and the Dragon Palace.
As for Qi Xuansu driving Yue Liuli into the Demon Locking Tower Cave for revenge, he never denied it.
