Twelve peaks are located on both sides of the river. There are six peaks in the south and north of the river, with the Goddess Peak being the most beautiful. The clouds and rain in Wushan are unpredictable. There is a poem that once said that the sea was difficult to make water, but Wushan was not clouds.
It's just that there are twelve peaks among the eleven witches, and there is still one missing great witch.
Probably because Qingwei Zhenren had already set the tone, Qi Xuansu's trip to Qizhou Daofu did not cause any twists and turns. For example, a blind junior from the Li family jumped out to provoke Qi Xuansu. The older generation would not do that.
They are all behind this kind of thing, and they are just talking and laughing on the surface.
In-person provocation is like young people fighting for the opposite sex. Being too arrogant is not the style of old guys.
The Xidaomen delegation headed by Huangfu Ji first visited Qizhou.
In a sense, Qizhou Taoist Prefecture is like a miniature Taoist sect. Qizhou is equivalent to the Central Plains, which is the core area. The Bohai Prefecture and the Liaodong Peninsula area under its jurisdiction are equivalent to the overseas Taoist sects of Taoism.
Parts of Silla are similar to the Southern Continent.
After Huangfuji visited various prefectures in Qizhou, he walked along the inland sea, passing through Bohai Prefecture and the peninsula area of Liaodong, and finally arrived at the border of Silla.
Then Huangfuji's trip to the Taoist sect was successfully concluded, and he was about to set off back to the southern continent. Qi Xuansu was traveling with him, including Lu Yujue and others.
Just as Qi Xuansu reported to Master Qingwei, Liu Hu was left in the Jiangnan Taoist Mansion with Lei Xiaohuan to practice first and become familiar with the various rules and procedures of the Taoist sect.
The main mission of Qi Xuansu's trip to the southern continent this time is still related to Kukulkan. The Taoist sect does not allow the existence of an unstable factor, especially if this unstable factor has the strength of an immortal, or a god.
Therefore, Qi Xuansu was entrusted by Jinque with the important task of conducting a secret investigation of Kukulkan. This means that Qi Xuansu is likely to face a god, or even several gods.
Although Qi Xuansu has seen many immortals, Buddhas, ghosts and gods, most of the time he just waved flags and shouted or beat drums. When he was in Fenglin Island, it was Master Qingwei who took the lead, and Master Zhang Dazhen and the national master raided the formation to hold down the battle. In Borneo
At that time, it was Master Lan and Master Jiang who took action one after another. The most powerful opponent Qi Xuansu encountered was at the level of pseudo-immortal. This time, Qi Xuansu had to shoulder the heavy responsibility and face the immortal gods directly. It must be said that it was a huge challenge.
.
However, Qi Xuansu is not alone. In addition to Huangfu Ji, he can also seek help from Tantai Zhenxiao, Gong Fu, and Ixiqier.
Especially Tantai Zhenxiao, Qi Xuansu has a deep memory. This is what he saw
The first immortal in the lineage of human immortals, his energy and blood are as huge as ancient giant beasts. He is completely different from the earthly immortals, heavenly immortals and gods. He is also the first person in Xidao Sect.
But then again, on this matter, the opinions of Daomen and Xidaomen are not completely consistent. Before Qi Xuansu has concrete evidence, it is not easy to ask the immortals of Xidaomen to come forward. This is not the traditional sphere of influence of Daomen.
There are not so many people for Qi Xuansu to deploy, at least there are no spiritual officers, which means that Qi Xuansu has to go into battle in person many times.
Fortunately, there is Huangfuji, the master of Jueshengtang, who holds many secrets about the ancient gods. However, in the past, most of Huangfuji's attention was focused on the Steam Gospel in the north.
,ignoring these things.
Now, in response to Qi Xuansu's request, Huangfuji ordered people to summarize and organize the relevant content files, so that they can check them one by one just after they return to the Southern Continent on the "Sun Boat".
Of course, Huangfuji has no interest in these things now. His attention has now shifted to the new port that is about to start construction. This trip to Daomen has given him a lot of inspiration, and he can't wait to turn these inspirations into something visible to the naked eye.
Results.
The Jueshengtang side is very efficient. They have sent some files to Qi Xuansu through the "Xunfu Array" on board the ship. They are all simple summaries of their past years. Although the real person in charge of the hall, Huang Fuji, does not care about these "weird powers".
"Chaos God" thing, but they still do their duty and have records all the time. It doesn't take too long to sort it out slowly.
This makes Qi Xuansu's journey no longer boring. In the past few years, Qi Xuansu has developed the habit of not wasting any time and filling up all his free time, whether it is practicing, dealing with official duties, practicing calligraphy, or reading.
Wait, there is no idle time anyway. Now he has something to do, and that is to read the dossier.
At the front of this file, there is also a letter from the chief deputy head of Xidaomen Juesheng Church, which can be regarded as the words written at the beginning.
However, this letter was not addressed to Huangfuji, but to Qi Xuansu. It seemed that the chief also knew that his superiors would not care about these matters, so even if he wrote it, it would be in vain, so he simply bypassed Huangfuji and reported directly to Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu opened the letter, and the content was relatively concise. He omitted polite words such as "seeing the words as if they were faces", and used vernacular to get straight to the point.
The content is as follows.
I'm happy finally
Someone noticed these anomalies and paid attention to them. I also have to admit that Beichen Hall’s professional quality, especially in terms of sense of smell and alertness, is obviously higher than that of our Juesheng Hall. I don’t think the Master Zhangtang will be disappointed because of this.
Angry, after all, my chief is not as good as Chief Qi, and his leader is not as good as Master Qingwei.
Chief Qi asked us to summarize the suspicious events related to the ancient gods that have occurred in recent years. This is really not an easy task. Because most of the content we have is "fragments", which are not enough to piece together a complete picture, and the context is also difficult to understand.
To clarify, I can only give a rough explanation based on my understanding. And because these "fragments" themselves have omissions and contradictions, I made some appropriate supplements and guesses.
It should be pointed out in particular that this series of strange events occurred after Kukulkan completely replaced the original sun god Itsumna. This is why we suspect that this series of events is related to Quetzalcoatl and the current sun god Kuku.
One of the important reasons related to Erkan. (The word "thorough" is bolded and emphasized.)
Of course, this is just a suspicion. Without any solid evidence, it naturally cannot be submitted to the real people for discussion. This series of strange events is generally called the "Shadow Case" internally, and there is still no clear conclusion yet.
Even because of the Civil War, the Juesheng Church had to focus most of its energy on collecting intelligence on the Northern Continent, causing the investigation of the "Shadow Case" to be put on hold indefinitely.
So I was very surprised and pleasantly surprised to hear that Master Zhangtang decided to restart the investigation of the "Shadow Case". I have to say that the charm of Taiping Money is so great that people can't refuse it. Chief Qi paid for the construction of the new port, and Master Zhangtang
The real person could not refuse Chief Qi's request.
Getting back to the topic, we first noticed the "Shadow Case" because of a murder that occurred in Cusco. Cusco is the old capital of Tawantin, with a prominent political status, and the identity of the deceased is even more unusual.
A priest of the sun god.
The people in Tawantin were unable to solve the case, so they approached us and we took over the case.
The specific investigation process will not be described in detail. We have used a series of methods including "earth energy retrospection", "dialogue with the deceased" and even divination prophecies, etc., but we still have not found the murderer. However, we have also discovered some unusual things.
There is a black sun tattoo on his heart. And in the deceased’s last words, he showed great fear, as if he was being hunted by something. The note is not the real last words, but what we get by talking to the deceased through magic.
Last words.
This leaves us
Some reasonable suspicion arose, who is chasing this Sun God priest? He is so scared, why doesn't he seek help from the temple? According to normal thinking, the biggest suspect is some people in the temple, so he
I didn't dare to ask the temple for help.
This seems to be the most reasonable answer. We don't want to interfere too much in the affairs of the temple, so we will close the case here.
But other subsequent cases made us realize that the case of the Sun God Priest might not be that simple.
This leads to the second case, the New Xijing case.
When Qi Xuansu saw this, he paused.
Xijing is Xijing Prefecture. Before Xidaomen left the Central Plains, its base camp was located in Xijing Prefecture, just like the base camp of Nandaomen was located in Shangqing Prefecture in Wuzhou. After Xidaomen came to the southern continent, it established a
New Xijing Prefecture, hence the name "New Xijing". In fact, many place names in the Southern Continent have Eastern and Western colors, with few local colors. The Western-colored place names were given by Westerners when they occupied the Southern Continent, and the Eastern colors
The place name was taken from Xidaomen.
Xinxijing is not a city of Taoist priests. There are various temples here. However, due to pressure from Xidaomen, the temples have been moved to the mountains outside the city. Believers who want to go to the temples have to walk through long and difficult mountain roads. Xidaomen
It is called a pilgrimage road, testing the believers' devotion to the Tao. As for the Taoist temple, it is naturally located in the center of the city, or in the most prosperous area.
.Anyway, Xidaomen has all the good words.
This is the background.
Then Qi Xuansu continued to look down.
A temple of the Sun God on a mountain outside the city was suddenly covered in shadow. When we arrived, none of the priests or believers inside survived. We dispersed the shadow and inspected the bodies, finding the souls and internal organs of these Sun God priests.
They have all disappeared, and these sun priests also have black sun tattoos on their bodies.
This seems to be an internal fight between two factions within the temple. We initially thought it was the Kukulkan faction purging the Itesumna faction. This is not surprising. After all, the emperor and courtiers, the sun god, have all changed. Below
Naturally, the priests also needed to be replaced, so the case was handed over to the temple. To put it harshly, let them kick themselves out of bed, and we should use our energy on military matters.
But the occurrence of the third case made us realize that this was a series of interrelated cases, involving more than just a temple of the Sun God.
