Although the Daxuan court successively abolished most of the old systems of the previous dynasty, such as most of the guard offices and the twenty-four yamen of the inner court, it also inherited a considerable part of the system, such as the road guide system.
The so-called road guide means that any person who is hundreds of miles away from the place of residence needs to be issued by the local government with a kind of official document such as a letter of introduction or a pass. This is a road guide. If there is no road guide or is inconsistent with it, it is a road guide.
Those who must be punished according to the law. Lu Yin is actually proof of leaving home.
With the prosperity of sea and land trade and the frequent movement of people, this system should have been abolished. However, due to the rise of secret societies, the court and Taoist sects still retained the system of road guides in order to facilitate the arrest of secret society members, whether entering the city or entering the city.
When staying in a hotel, you need to issue a road guide. If there is no road guide, or the person does not match the road guide information, the hotel must report it to the official immediately.
Men in black, Qingluan guards, Taoist priests, scholars with meritorious status, etc. do not need a road guide and can travel freely to various places, but they need to show identification, such as the Taoist priest's ultimatum and the waist badge of the man in black.
When Qi Xuansu came to stay in the city, he still used the identity of Wei Wugui. The prefect's Yamen found this out easily and quickly reported to Taiping Tower. Zhang Yuelu naturally learned about it.
As for the conflict between Zhang Yuelu and Yuan Shangdao, under the mediation of Pei Xiaolou, both parties took a step back.
After Zhang Yuelu learned of Wei Wugui's whereabouts, he felt that it was effortless to find a way out of the iron shoes, but he did not forget that it was Pei Xiaolou who issued the pass token to Wei Wugui.
It was quite suspicious that Xiaolou happened to appear here, so she did not show her interest in Wei Wugui in front of Pei Xiaolou. Instead, she made an excuse and offered to help the Yuan family rescue Yuan Fengchan as an apology.
Yuan Shangdao did not refuse. In fact, being humiliated by Zhang Yuelu was not something difficult to accept. First of all, Zhang Yuelu's status and identity were well known to her temperament. Secondly, with Li Tianzhen in front of her, even Tangtang
Young Master Li has endured it, what can others not tolerate? Am I still more noble than Li Tianzhen?
So Zhang Yuelu left Jiangling Mansion and ran with all his strength, even faster than a galloping horse, and finally caught up with Qi Xuansu who was ambushed.
Zhang Yuelu doesn't like fire guns as much as Qi Xuansu. She prefers ancient bows and arrows, and her shooting skills are quite good. At this time, she turned "photo paper" into a bow and arrow. First, she killed the Denghua monk with one arrow, and then she cultivated according to her realm.
High and low, they shot Tao Pili and Zhou Laizi successively. The others were not of concern.
This was actually a successful sneak attack. If it were a head-on fight, even if Monk Denghua was not Zhang Yuelu's opponent, he would not lose his life in just one encounter. Unfortunately, Monk Denghua was not prepared at all. Just like when Zhang Yuelu was unprepared by the Tongtian River, he was also killed by two
A woman from the Lingshan Witch Cult with low cultivation level was injured, and Qi Xuansu relied on a sneak attack to kill an opponent who was a level higher than himself.
However, Zhang Yuelu did not kill Wei Wugui in her eyes. In her opinion, Wei Wugui was deeply involved and must be captured alive.
Seeing this scene, the others shouted and fled in all directions.
Song Luodi, who had been hiding in the dark, did not hesitate to use the method of escaping from the ground, and disappeared in an instant.
Only Qi Xuansu stayed where he was, turning around and looking at Zhang Yuelu. Fortunately, he was wearing sunglasses, which blocked the surprise and complexity in his eyes.
Zhang Yuelu walked slowly towards Qi Xuansu with a long bow in hand. The paper arrows he fired seemed to have spirituality, flying up on their own and returning to their original bodies.
Qi Xuansu was a little nervous. Although he didn't know why Zhang Yuelu appeared here, he didn't think it was a simple coincidence. He still remembered that Zhang Yuelu noticed some problems in his past through a few pages of files, forcing him to half tell the truth.
He falsely told the story of his master's murder and then managed to cover it up.
Learning from the past, it is hard to guarantee whether Zhang Yuelu will notice any clues this time.
Zhang Yuelu stopped three feet away from Qi Xuansu, and the long bow in his hand turned into a piece of paper, wrapped around his wrist.
The two stood opposite each other.
There was purple energy flowing in Zhang Yuelu's eyes.
This is the "Immortal Qi Watching Technique" used to banish immortals. If it is an ordinary disguise method, it can only change the appearance but cannot hide the breath. Naturally, Zhang Yuelu will see through it at a glance. However, Qi Xuansu is currently wearing the white fox face mask left by Su Ran.
Hiding all the aura, Zhang Yuelu returned without success.
"Are you Wei Wugui?" Zhang Yuelu finally asked.
Qi Xuansu's voice was old: "My lord, Wei Wugui, thank you very much for your help. Have you asked me your name?"
Qi Xuansu recognized Zhang Yuelu, but Wei Wugui did not. This was the first time Wei Wugui saw Zhang Yuelu.
In a very short period of time, Qi Xuansu had calmed down. He temporarily suppressed all kinds of complicated emotions and did not do anything stupid like calling out Zhang Yuelu's name, pretending not to recognize Zhang Yuelu.
Zhang Yuelu looked at Qi Xuansu and replied, "My name is Zhang Yuelu."
"It turns out to be Master Zhang, the youngest deputy hall master of the Taoist sect, whose name I have admired for a long time." Qi Xuansu immediately "suddenly realized".
Zhang Yuelu was not surprised that Wei Wugui had heard of his name, and asked again: "Why did you want to kill Wan Xiuwu?"
Qi Xuansu asked, "Who is Wan Xiuwu?"
Zhang Yuelu was silent for a moment and suddenly asked: "Is Wei Wugui that old?"
Qi Xuansu took off his sunglasses and revealed a pair of drowsy old eyes: "I don't understand what Master Zhang means."
"You went from Yanze to Xiping Mansion. On the way, you met Ba Tianyang and Qin Wubing. Then you went to Xijing Mansion, 'Ghost Pass', Longmen Mansion, and Zixian Mountain. Many people who met you said that
You are a young man, how can you be an old man?" Zhang Yuelu stared at Qi Xuansu's eyes, intending to judge what Qi Xuansu was thinking through the changes in his eyes.
Qi Xuansu was shocked beyond words. He never expected that Zhang Yuelu had already grasped his whereabouts. He lowered his head slightly, lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, and replied: "It's just a disguise that I usually use when walking around in the world. It's nothing."
"You can deceive so many people by disguising yourself, which shows that you are very clever. In that case, are you disguising yourself now?" Zhang Yuelu suddenly took a step forward.
Qi Xuansu's body suddenly tensed up, and then he took a step back: "What does Master Zhang mean by this?"
It's not that he doesn't want to recognize Zhang Yuelu, but that he can't recognize each other now. Pei Xiaolou has promised that through the relationship with Master Donghua, he will let him return to the Taoist sect in an open and honest manner, and he will naturally meet Zhang Yuelu by then. So why should he
At this time, in this kind of place, the true identity is exposed?
Zhang Yuelu smiled coldly: "Are you guilty of being a thief?"
Qi Xuansu said in a deep voice: "I don't know if there is any misunderstanding, but since Master Zhang said that I am a thief, he must provide evidence. In this regard, the Taoist sect has clearly stipulated that no guilt should be suspected."
Zhang Yuelu's eyes flashed, and this was where she was in trouble. There was no doubt about the guilt, and whoever advocated had to provide evidence. She deduced Wei Wugui's whereabouts through many clues, and suspected that Wei Wugui was a member of the secret society and killed Wan Xiuwu.
, but there is no real evidence to support it. Take the eighth day Yang as an example. Zhang Yuelu used some tricks to get the words out of the eighth day Yang, but the eighth day Yang will never identify Qi Xuansu as a witness, let alone draw a bond.
Testimony is equivalent to no evidence.
Then the speculation is just speculation, and Wei Wugui cannot be formally arrested.
Some people may say that Zhang Yuelu is pedantic. With her status, she can directly order Taoist temples to arrest Wei Wugui. Not to mention the damage to the justice and majesty of Taoist law, this is not very realistic in terms of feasibility.
.
If he was just an ordinary person, it wouldn't be impossible, but when he knew that the backer behind Wei Wugui was Pei Xiaolou, why did Zhang Yuelu think that he could capture Wei Wugui through the power of the Taoist sect within Quanzhen Taoism?
Do the Taoist priests of Quanzhen Taoism recognize Donghua Zhenren as brothers? Or do they recognize Zhang Yuelu, who was born in Zhengdao?
Although Zhang Yuelu was favored by the Earth Master, Donghua Zhenren is the second person in Quanzhen Tao after the Earth Master. He is expected to compete for the Grand Master. Even if the competition for the Grand Master fails, he can still inherit the position of the Earth Master. And he will not be neglected.
As a matter of fact, Zhang Yuelu is not a direct descendant of Earth Master, but Pei Xiaolou is the real brother of Donghua Master.
Which one is lighter and which one is more important is clear at a glance.
In the end, Zhang Yuelu could only take action himself.
Qi Xuansu's eyes never left the piece of paper on Zhang Yuelu's wrist, and his hands reached back.
