Chapter 167: Killing with a knife
Neither Wei Rui nor Kuang Cheng had ever cultivated immortality. Both were well-read poetry and books and were quite polite, so they were very reserved to each other.
At the same time, because the two of them had obvious opposition between the Pro Immortal Sect and the Sixianjian, they rarely had the opportunity to go privately, and they only wrote letters on weekdays.
So from the time we met, the number of times they met was not as much as Ji You grabbed Bai Rulong.
So three days ago, the two made an appointment to take advantage of the opportunity to enjoy the lanterns during the Moon Festival.
This is true in the world, and it is much easier to do if you have reasons.
Just like there are bandits on the night city mountain, so you can kill people. You can naturally encounter them on purpose on the moon festival.
In this regard, Ji You only commented on this, forgetting your friends when you see sex.
"It turns out that the beauty has an appointment, no wonder she looks energetic today."
"It's not too brisk..."
"Give me two cents of silver!"
"?"
Ji You spread his hands: "It's such a beautiful night of flowers and full moon. If you have a beautiful woman, don't you let me buy a lantern on the street to play with it?"
Kuang Cheng reached out to take out the purse from his arms and took out two cents of scattered silver.
Ji You put the money in his arms: "If you have love, I don't always talk about it on paper. If you have any questions about writing a letter, you should seize the opportunity to touch it. Our village urgently needs a population."
Kuang Cheng blushed: "Miss Wei and I are gentlemen, and Brother Ji is really Meng Lang..."
"Reproduction has been the core task of the human race since ancient times. How can it be said that it is Meng Lang? You scholar is too pedantic."
"Anyway, it's Meng Lang. Kuang is so arrogant that he can't... not behave like this. Therefore, the population matter requires Mr. Ji to work hard himself."
Ji You picked up a dumpling: "I tried hard a few days ago, but I was rejected."
Kuang Cheng looked up after hearing the sound, and after thinking for a long time, he said, "If you don't agree to this, you can change to another one, you can take a concubine first. Qingyun Tianxia has had this tradition since ancient times. Brother Ji can be a gentleman, and the big woman can choose a date to decide, so it will not delay the endless life."
Ji You spread his hands from the table: "Give it to me."
Kuang Cheng was shocked: "Why do you need money when you say a few words to Brother Ji now?"
"I asked you to show me the books of sages you read."
"Brother Ji is interested in the books of sages?"
"I really want to know what excitement is taught in it."
Kuang Cheng heard that Ji You were talking and joking, so he lowered his head to eat dumplings without saying a word.
After dinner, the night had already surged up, and the two left the yard and walked out of Chunhua Lane.
At this time, in Shengjing City, the lights were bright and endless, as if stars fell into the mortal world.
The street was full of young men and ladies in gorgeous clothes, smiling faces, walking along the road, their faces were illuminated by the lamps hanging on the street.
Kuang Cheng and Wei Rui made an appointment to meet at the entrance of the Lantern Festival, and the entrance was on the only way to Ji You back to the mountain, so the two walked forward together.
The Lantern Festival is in the East City. When the two of them came here through the streets and alleys, they saw a high-end flower stand in front of them. Painted paper lanterns hung high above, looking dazzling and bright.
Wei Rui was standing under the lights at this time, her beautiful face was reflected by the fire, and her figure was slim and charming.
However, she was not alone. In front of her was Dou Yuankong, son of Shangshu, and several students from the outer courtyard, such as Fang Jincheng, Puyang Xing, and Lu Hanyan.
In addition, there were two young people around Dou Yuankong. Although they were wearing human costumes, they had thin scales clearly visible in their necks and short horns on their heads hidden between their hair.
Dou Yuankong was talking about something at this time, as if he was inviting him to travel with him, but Wei Rui waved her hand gently, with a little resistance.
"Young Master Dou, I have an appointment tonight."
"Who? Princess Changle?"
Wei Rui pursed her lips and shook her head gently.
Dou Yuankong suddenly thought of something, and his face gradually became a little ugly: "Is that poor scholar again?"
Wei Rui raised her head and frowned slightly with beautiful eyebrows: "Young Master Kuang is my Daxia official, not a poor scholar."
"Even so, he is still a poor scholar from a background. How could he be worthy of you!"
Fang Jincheng stood aside at this time, a little puzzled.
He felt that the book of heaven was not good these days and was upset. He happened to receive an invitation from Dou Yuankong and decided to come out to relax. However, as soon as he got here, he found Dou Yuankong running towards a woman, and then he learned that this was Wei Li's granddaughter.
Dou Yuankong seemed to have intentions for this woman, but the woman was ruthless.
But what happened to the poor scholar? He, a child from the Immortal Family, seems to have rarely heard of this word.
"What poor scholar?"
Dou Yuan turned his head and looked at Fang Jincheng, his face slightly darkened: "A villager from a remote countryside went to Beijing for the exam two years ago. He was lucky enough to have high school. After the incident in Qiling last year, a large number of refugees came to Shengjing. This scholar kept pestering Rui'er by giving porridge to the refugees."
After the words fell, not only Fang Jincheng was a little surprised, but even Puyang Xing and Lu Hanyan couldn't help but raise their eyebrows.
Qingyun World has always been of strict hierarchy, including the Immortal Sect, the Aristocratic Family, the Royal Family, and the nobles in the Beijing who cultivated immortals. The mortals do not even have the qualifications to be included in the list, let alone the mortals from rural areas.
Moreover, they have had contact with each other for a few days and know that Dou Yuankong is not a good person.
It is really strange that a poor scholar entangled the woman he liked for half a year, but he has not died yet.
"Isn't it enough to break the leg?"
Wei Rui's face changed when she heard the voice: "Young Master, who I associate with is probably irrelevant to you."
Fang Jincheng glanced at Dou Yuankong, but found that the other party did not refute, which made him even more strange.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the street, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
"Miss Wei, what happened here?"
Kuang Cheng walked towards him and looked at Wei Rui with concern, while also noticing Dou Yuankong and his group.
The scholar was weak and had no power to tie a chicken, but he was not afraid at this time.
He asked the girl to come, so she had to protect her...
Fang Jincheng, Puyang Xing and Lu Hanyan turned their heads and found that they were really a mortal with no spiritual fluctuations in their bodies, and they looked a little weak.
For them, even if they are officials from Daxia, if they do not have the background of immortal cultivators, no one will care about them if they die.
After all, the power of immortality is higher than that of imperial power, which is an indisputable fact.
But strangely, ordinary mortals will tremble even if they don’t kneel down when they see immortals. However, this scholar can walk up to them in a dignified manner without fear.
On the contrary, Dou Yuankong didn't say a word, as if he was enduring.
But at this moment, a figure following the scholar suddenly broke into everyone's eyes.
The man was also wearing a long book gown and walked towards him, which instantly made the people in the venue realize where the strangeness came from.
"Miss Wei, what happened here?"
Ji You walked closer, and Xue Kuang Cheng bowed his hand, and his questions were just right.
Wei Rui bowed slowly: "I have met Mr. Kuang and Mr. Ji. I just met an acquaintance and chatted for a few words, but nothing happened."
At this time, Lu Hanyan and Puyang Xing couldn't help but straighten their backs, raised their hands and folded them in front of them, and bowed slightly.
Ji You looked at Dou Yuankong and said, "Young Master Dou is here to enjoy the lanterns too? But Miss Wei seems to have an appointment with others, why don't you travel with me?"
Dou Yuankong held his breath: "No need!"
"Hey, don't be shy."
After Ji You finished speaking, he turned to look at Kuang Cheng: "Where are you going to go?"
Kuang Cheng glanced at Wei Rui: "Follow the road to the west."
"Then my brother Yuankong and I go east along the road. Since it is not the same as we can, let's go first."
Kuang Cheng bowed to Ji You and then looked at Wei Rui.
Wei Rui's eyes flashed clear, and then nodded slightly, and the talented man and beautiful woman walked into the surging lantern street.
Ji You turned his head to look at Dou Yuankong, Lu Hanyan and others.
He did not like to interfere in other people's love affairs, nor did he think that he would bully others like a child of aristocratic families, because no matter how many people were involved, he should have been relatively equal since ancient times.
What he is doing now is to provide an equal environment for Kuang Cheng.
"Brother Yuankong, I have two cents of money. I'll buy you a lantern later."
Ji You was alone and had no intention of visiting the Lantern Festival, but suddenly he became interested and walked forward.
I carefully selected the stalls along the street, and thought to myself that I bought lanterns for the far away, so I had to give it a good gift.
Dou Yuankong's mouth trembled slightly, and he saw Puyang Xing whispering: "If you don't say you are a rural villager, how could the scholar know Senior Brother Ji?"
"Isn't he also a rural villager..."
"?"
After hearing this, everyone was a little stunned and remembered that Ji You also had the title of private practice in the countryside.
Dou Yuankong tightened his cuffs: "They are all from Yuyang County and are said to have grown up together."
Fang Jincheng looked at him at this moment, thinking that he was no wonder that you were so tolerant.
Ji You had already walked far ahead at this time. He couldn't help but turn his head and look, and spoke gently, but his voice rolled like a thunderbolt: "No one wants to swim with me?"
As the voice fell, Lu Hanyan and Puyang Xing followed: "What is the relationship between senior brother and that scholar?"
"It's probably a friend of life and death."
"So that's it..."
Ji You frowned slightly at this moment: "Who are those two demon races?"
Puyang Xing raised his hand when he heard the sound: "It's the first time we have met, but according to Dou Yuankong, they are all envoys of the demon clan."
Since the demon clan began to trade with Jiuzhou, demon clans have been common in human territories, but most of them are yellow pupils, while the two who traveled with Dou Yuankong were blue pupils.
Previously in Shengjing City, he fought with the guards around the Demon Emperor's son, and became curious about the color of their pupils.
Later I learned that Huang Tong represents civilians among the demon clan, while Lan Tong is a nobleman. The two young men from the demon clan had already stepped up, looking at Ji You with curiosity.
They knew that the human race had a distinction between aristocratic families under the Immortal Sect, so they looked at their reactions and thought that Ji You was a child of aristocratic family, but then they realized that this was a private cultivation in the countryside, so they became more curious.
"This person entered Tian Academy a year ago and was the first to understand Tian Shu. Then he was famous all over the world with seven swords."
"Half a year ago, he learned the sword art of Lingjian Mountain, with extraordinary combat power. He killed 18 Tongxuan realms and established a family in Fengzhou."
"The two should have heard that the human race has a thousand-year-old family with the Chu surname, so even the second son in his family fell under his command."
Dou Yuankong has always been unable to stand Ji You, but seeing that these two people were interested in Ji You, he was generous in praise and praised him for his combat power.
Seeing this scene, Fang Jincheng couldn't help but frown slightly, wondering what he had.
The two envoys of the demon clan were indeed more interested after hearing this. They looked at each other and said, "It turns out that there are such people in Tianshu Academy."
"Ji You's divine power is not only so, he has also tied with the guards around your ninth prince."
"?"
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
When the ninth son of the Demon Emperor came to Shengjing, Ji You did have a conflict with the guards around him in order to save a child from the feet of the monster.
However, because the demon clan first entered Jiuzhou and was already restrained, the two sides did not fight hard, saying that it was not appropriate to tie.
But Dou Yuankong seemed to be true, as if he wanted to make these two people more interested in them...
However, the two demon clan looked at each other and suddenly seemed to understand something. They turned to look at Dou Yuankong: "After saying so much, is Mr. Dou actually trying to kill someone with a knife?"
Hearing the sound, Dou Yuankong was stunned for a moment.
After that, the night became darker and the lights reflected became more prosperous.
Due to the powerful force of the bandits, everyone began to swim with their arms, and was often asked by Ji You whether they were happy or not.
During this time, Lu Hanyan asked about the experience of rushing into Tongxuan Realm for the perfect rush of the lower three realms, so Ji You told her some experiences and insights.
He had eaten many meals from Lu Qingqiu and received her spiritual sword. Now he helped her train her sister, which is a reward.
Seeing that the other party was about breaking the realm one by one, Lu Hanyan couldn't help but pursed her red lips.
Everyone in the courtyard said that Ji You's words "It's the Heavenly Book to Sensitive Me" were an excuse, but I heard him teach him in detail about the conflict with the situation, but I was a little uncertain.
Because Sister A had said before that Ji You didn’t seem to have a private personality.
So, that night might have really been the Heavenly Book that sent him.
At this time, the night was getting darker, and the candlelight of the lanterns gradually dimmed. Everyone bid farewell one after another, first Fang Jincheng, then Puyang Xing, then Lu Hanyan, and finally Dou Yuankong, who was holding a lantern in his hand, hurriedly left with the two demon clans as if they were hollowed out.
Ji You turned back from East Street and came to Liu'an Bridge. He saw countless young men and women reluctantly, and finally waved goodbye.
At this time, Kuang Cheng and Wei Rui walked towards the bridge.
The two of them were just heading towards the flower building on the west side, where folk artists were singing operas. When they returned, they all looked full of eyes. They looked like they had a passionate relationship, but they probably hadn't touched them yet.
"Brother Ji has finished shopping, why are you the only one?"
"Everyone left, it seems that I'm not very happy to swim with me."
As soon as Ji You shines around his waist, an exquisite box appears in his hand: "Brush, ink, paper and inkstone are all good things, which are considered as rituals for sacrifice to the moon."
Kuang Cheng reached out to take the box, opened it and looked at it with a little shocked.
Because he could judge from the appearance alone that this ink paper and inkstone is indeed valuable. Even if he bought it from a real merchant, he would probably have to be nearly 100 taels of silver.
"Brother Ji... Is this picking someone else's money bag on the street?"
Ji You shook his head: "No, I just spent two cents to buy a lantern for Dou Yuankong. Unexpectedly, he was extremely polite and replied to me a lot."
Wei Rui's eyes were a little confused. After looking at it for a long time, she looked up and said, "Young Master Ji and Dou Yuankong, it turns out that their personal relationship is so good?"
Ji You shook his head: "No, I have only seen it a few times."
"Then..."
Kuang Cheng looked up at Ji You at this moment, as if he understood something: "Brother Ji, he is still really professional..."
Ji You raised his lips: "I was delayed by the reputation of a famous and upright disciple of the Tianshu Academy, otherwise I wouldn't even have to give lanterns."
The second day after the Moon Lantern Festival, the streets seemed much more purified.
A sedan chair came before Nishan Shinto, and then the Sixian Supervisor was wearing his official uniform and came alone to the inner courtyard of Tianshu Academy.
Afterwards, the Tianshu Academy's imperial edict flashed in Qingyuntian for half a day.
Only the palace master can use this order, and the last time it appeared was used to clear the Dan Sect to help the Zheng family ancestor ascend to heaven and correct his name.
"The barbarians sent an envoy to the demon clan?"
In the office, Lang Hetong was a little shocked when he heard the news.
Qin Rong nodded after hearing this: "Yes, this happened a few days ago. After the news came, it attracted many attention. It is said that the barbarian mission was warmly received by the demon race, so the Emperor of Daxia also prepared to send an mission to prevent the demon race from suddenly turning against each other."
Since the Qiling incident, the demons and barbarians felt that the human race's luck gradually lost and could not wait to come to Jiuzhou.
However, due to historical reasons, the two tribes did not unite, otherwise, Jiuzhou might have fallen long ago by relying on the Zhenbei Army to defend the pass.
The human immortals have been arrogant since ancient times and are not very good at paying attention to the affairs of the mortal world. Whether it is war, illness, or life or death, it is all small matters for these people who are determined to the great way.
But everyone knows that the purpose of the demon clan and the barbarian clan is for the fortune of heaven.
And luck is related to becoming an immortal.
They are just in charge of the Tianshu Academy and do not know how to seize the so-called fortune of heaven.
But since it can attract the continuous covetousness of two major clans, it means that luck is definitely not groundless.
And this is a fatal thing for the immortals.
"The Heavenly Academy ordered the world yesterday to announce to other immortal sects, asking them to pick people out and escort the Daxia delegation into the snowy land and meet the Demon Emperor."
Lang Hetong narrowed his eyes: "If you want to travel through the Northern Yuan, you will definitely encounter barbarians."
Qin Rong nodded: "If you don't leave the Han Iron Pass in Rongdao Realm, you will definitely die. Therefore, the major immortal sects have sent their masters from Rongdao Realm and above in the past few days."
Lang Hetong looked at the dispatch list at this time, and after a long silence, he spoke: "Why... why is Ji You here?"
"On the evening of the Moon Festival, Dou Yuankong, the son of Shangshu Dou, invited two people from the demon clan envoys. He met Ji You by chance. It is said that he praised him as if he had descended to earth as a god. Several nobles in the demon clan envoys wanted to go back, so he called him to escort them."
"Do they have personal relationships?"
Qin Rong raised his eyes: "They have personal grudges."
After listening to it, Lang Hetong narrowed his eyes instantly: "But it's not the turn of my Tian Academy to say what the demon clan says, right?"
"This is a good thing. My Tian Academy is the Holy Sect of the Great Xia, and it is within the Weijia Sea. Not to mention Dou Yuankong, even the demon clan, you can't even point fingers at us."
"Then why did he still write him on the list?"
Qin Rong took a deep breath: "Yesterday, several inner court elders came to me and said that Ji You was famous and capable of taking on a great responsibility, so he pushed the boat with the flow of the river."
Lang Hetong was stunned after hearing this, and then realized something: "Is it because of Fengzhou?"
"Yes, his killing in Fengzhou has annoyed many people, otherwise he would not even be unable to enter the Immortal Palace. The most important thing is that there are too few Immortal Sect Taxes in Fengzhou this year."
"I heard that only 10%?"
Qin Rong nodded slowly: "Although Fengzhou is barren, it is very active. There are actually quite a lot of taxes every year. Do you think those foreign fairy villages really eat so much? No, all those taxes have been given to the aristocratic families and given to us."
Lang Hetong couldn't help but sit on the chair: "If you enter the Northern Yuan in Tongxuan Realm, you will definitely die."
"Ji You is not an ordinary Tongxuan Realm. You must know that he can kill Rongdao."
"The fusion of the Immortal Village is not considered fusion of the fusion of the Tao, it is just a state of emptiness. If you get to my Tian Academy, you can kill it with just two Tongxuans."
Qin Rong picked up the list and looked at it a few times: "If he died, everyone would be happy. If he was lucky enough to die, he would probably not be so arrogant in the future. No matter what, it would be a good thing. Dou Yuankong may not know that he is really a god."
Ji You established a noble family and took charge of Fengzhou taxes, which was in line with the Qingyun Immortal Rules.
The Qingyun Immortal Rule is the face of the seven great immortal sects, involving thousands of people, and no one is willing to tear it apart, leading to human turmoil.
But killing him with the hand of the barbarians would be extremely natural and not hurt.
Lang Hetong picked up the teacup on the table at this time: "Ji You is now a disciple of the inner court and is qualified to refuse the orders of the chief minister. Besides, he is not a fool, I think he will not agree."
"What if I give him ten thousand taels of gold and three thousand spirit stones in the snow?"
Hearing this, Lang Hetong instantly held his breath.
Qin Rong sighed a little: "Everyone has weaknesses, Ji You is the most obvious, it can be said that he is at his control..."
"The poor are not worthy of living."
After the Moon Festival, the temperature began to continue to drop, and the meaning of late autumn became stronger.
A cold current came from the north, causing a lot of frost in the morning.
At this time, Ji You was making a fire in the room, not to keep warm, but to drink tea in the morning.
When the tea is cooked, pour it into the tea cup, rinse it and soak it out. The tea fragrance in the courtyard is everywhere.
His fifteenth micro-light flash was almost at the middle stage, and he was sitting still and the blood and blood around him often roared, emitting a hot breath.
In addition, his divine consciousness is also increasing, and his knowledge of Taoism is also constantly advancing.
At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly came from outside the door. Ji You said "In" and saw a disciple of the head office pushing the door and walking in.
"Is there any letter from me?"
"No, it's Mr. Qin who is welcome."
Ji You raised his eyes when he heard the sound and couldn't help but sneer: "There has never been a good thing for me in the Executive Yuan, so I won't go."
The disciple of the Chief Officer was stunned when he heard the sound: "Well, Chief Officer Qin said that you can make money."
"Lead the way."
Ji You suddenly became interested, put down the teacup, and strided down the mountain with his disciples in the office.
