Chapter 463 You are the evil spirit
If Shen Ping was really a down-and-out scholar in the past, he would definitely have changed his mind when he heard the secret of Xue Taisui was exposed, but as a strong man who has practiced for thousands of years to overcome tribulations, he has a perseverance in mind How powerful, looking at the ghost in front of him at this moment, there is no wave on his face.
"Blood Taisui? I don't know what you are talking about?"
The dancing girl ghost snorted coldly, "Stop pretending to be confused, that prodigal Chunxiang has already explained everything, please advise You should be wise and hand over Xue Tai Sui quickly, otherwise not only you, but also the entire Shanyang County will become a ghost land."
Shen Ping said with a smile: "Shanyang County is protected by the Changling Temple. , Not to mention you are an evil ghost with a hundred years of Taoism, even a ghost general with five hundred years of Taoism would not dare to say such big words!”
Wu Ji sneered and said: "Chang Ling Taoist Temple? Bah, you hypocritical Taoist priests are more sinister than us ghosts. If Shanyang County becomes a ghost land, Chang Ling Temple and the Lingyin Temple behind it will only I'm afraid that instead of coming forward to protect him, he will be secretly happy."
Shen Ping narrowed his eyes and continued: "So, besides you, there are other ghosts with Taoism in Shanyang County?"
“Don’t probe me.”
“To tell you the truth, I am the only one who knows the exact whereabouts of Xue Taisui now. Those idiots won’t be able to find out even if I give them another year. "Arrived."
The dancer said very proudly and said impatiently: "Okay, stop talking nonsense and hand it over quickly, otherwise if I take action, your death will be miserable."< br>
Shen Ping smiled, "It turns out there is only one of you."
"I am enough..."
He hasn't finished speaking yet.
The dancing girl ghost saw the spell emerging from Shen Ping's palm, and the word "ding" suddenly appeared on the spell.
Boom.
Like the dome of the sky.
Dancing Girl immediately realized that the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth had condensed into a prison. No matter how it circulated the Yin energy in her body, she could not move at all.
"Concentration, the Confining Curse... Impossible, you, a Taoist who has just started for a year, how can you master the Confining Curse!"
It roared, with a voice Sharp and shrill.
But soon the Maiden's eyes widened again, and she saw a sky thunder spell floating slowly.
"No, no!"
If the Immobilization Spell can trap it, then this Heavenly Thunder Spell can definitely kill it. At this moment, Wu Ji was completely panicked, "You can't kill me, I I am a subordinate of the Ghost King of Netherworld. If you kill me, the Ghost King of Netherworld will be alerted, and the secret of Xue Taisui will be revealed. By then, you will be in danger."
Shen Ping walked over in a few steps. In front of Mai Ji, "If you want to survive, tell me what you know, including Ghost Girl's identity and the power of Futu Mountain..."
Mai Ji hurriedly told everything.
These things are not secret.
"Taoist Priest Lingzhen, I promise not to leak the news that you possess the Blood Tai Sui."
"No, you can't guarantee it."
He did not use the Heavenly Thunder spell, but He raised his hand to activate the Devouring Talent, and a powerful suction force immediately emerged from his palm. Under this suction force, the hundreds of years of Taoism accumulated in the Maiden Ghost's body poured out crazily.
“You, what are you going to do?”
Shen Ping grinned, “Of course I’m going to eat you.”
In Mai Ji's fearful eyes, the Yin Qi in her body disappeared quickly like a deflated ball, "Ah ah ah, you, you are not a human, you are an evil ghost!!"
After a while.
The dancing girl completely disappeared from head to toe.
Shen Ping stretched out, sat cross-legged, and started to absorb and digest the "Tao Lun Jue". After a cup of tea, the lines of the Tao bones in his body increased by half a circle, which meant that the Tao practice increased by fifty years.
“It still improves quickly like this, but if it is a ghost with high moral character, the effect of the Immobilization Curse and the Heavenly Thunder Curse will not be so strong.”
The "Taiyin Talisman Sutra" given to him by the master of Changling Temple only contains part of the mantras. If you want to practice advanced mantras, you have to go to Lingyin Temple, but that is for ordinary monks. Shen Ping himself He has a very high level of attainment in Talisman and Seal Writing. Through holding spells, divine spells and other spells, he has basically figured out the rules of spells, so even if there are no subsequent spells, he can create them himself.
When returning to the county seat.
He couldn't help but ponder. Judging from the news told by the dancing girl, the ghost princess Xi Lengyan is the first ghost general of the ghost king of the underworld. She has more than a thousand years of Taoism, and Futu Mountain It is another powerful force, including not only the ghost king, but also the demon king and monsters. Both forces are looking for the blood Taisui, but in the end it was obtained by Gui Ji. After that, Shen Ping Daogu was created by a combination of circumstances.
With these two forces, sooner or later he will be traced.
At that time, we will not just face such a century-old ghost.
"You have to take advantage of this period to improve your strength as soon as possible, and you must at least reach five hundred years of Taoism."
With five hundred years of Taoism, you can cast some powerful spells and Taoist magical powers. Then rely on him With his own talent for strange beasts, he can deal with them with ease.
Six mansions.
Song Captou and the others huddled together, not daring to exhale a breath. Even though Shen Ping and the ghost had long since disappeared, they did not dare to leave the range protected by the spell.
Until I saw Shen Ping coming back.
Mr. Song quickly stepped forward to greet him, "Taoist Priest Lingzhen, then, has the evil spirit been eliminated?"
Master Liu and his wives and concubines all looked at Shen Ping, filled with anticipation and nervousness.
"Don't worry, everyone, the evil ghost has been eliminated."
Hearing this.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Mr. Liu straightened his fat body and smiled: "Taoist Master Lingzhen is worthy of being a master of Changling Taoist Temple. He killed the evil spirits and solved a major problem for Liu's family. Come on, Butler Wang, put the incense." The money is here.”
Butler Wang hurriedly took out the incense money that he had prepared.
Shen Ping took a look and saw that he had a thousand taels of silver notes. As expected, he was from a wealthy family, and his spending was generous. The last time he followed Uncle Lingwu to deal with ghosts, he only got fifty incense coins from the Yamen.
Song Captou’s eyes widened when he saw it, but no matter how tempted he was, he didn’t dare to do anything untoward.
Taoist priest Lin appeared out of nowhere, "Have the ghosts really been eliminated? Could it be that they lied to get money for incense."
Shen Ping said casually: "I will stay in the house for the next few days. If the evil ghost appears again, the incense money will be returned."
Master Liu hurriedly said: "Where is this, it's just a little incense money." , It’s nothing.”
After that, he glared at Daozhang Lin.
The next five or six days.
The evil ghost did not attack the Liu Mansion again. Mr. Liu was finally relieved. Shen Ping also took advantage of this period to briefly investigate the situation in Shanyang County. Except for the dancing girl ghost, the other ghosts were very special. Ordinary, the strongest one is just an evil ghost with twenty years of practice.
Of course, in the eyes of Lingwu and Changling Guanzhu, Shen Ping cannot handle the evil ghosts who have been practicing Taoism for twenty years.
"Although there are a lot of ghosts, the strength of the City God Yinsi can definitely solve them. Why didn't the City God take action?"
This made him doubtful.
The prosperous the county, the more prosperous the incense is, the stronger the City God Yinsi will be. Logically speaking, it is impossible for Shanyang City God to sit back and watch the county be so ruined by ghosts.
Think of what the dancing girl ghost said before.
Shen Ping guessed that the City God Yin Si was probably involved in the battle in the court, and even if not, he was probably involved.
"Under the general trend, no one is immune. Unfortunately, it is the common people who suffer."
Standing on the city wall.
Looking at the somewhat desolate streets, he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.
At this time, two junior sisters and junior brothers came over, "Senior brother, the fire spells, thunder spells, and formation flags have been arranged at key locations in the city according to your instructions."
"Very good." "You did a good job, go and have a rest. Just go to the place where the spells are arranged at night. Remember what I said before. Every time you collect a ghost, you have to go to the county office to collect the incense money. Understood. ”
“Understood”
Deal with ordinary ghosts.
There is no need for Shen Ping to take action at all. Even the evil ghosts who have practiced Taoism for twenty years will never be able to resist under the spell he made.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
He and his junior brothers and sisters are still staying in Shanyang County, and they can solve a ghost every few days, which makes the originally enthusiastic county magistrate's attitude become cold, even disgusting.
"Taoist Master Lingzhen."
"The county is in financial difficulties and people's livelihood is in decline. As you have seen, we really can't come up with money for incense. As for the ghosts, I hope Taoist priest Lingzhen will show up. The common people in the world are the most important thing."
The county magistrate said expressionlessly.
In the past two months, the incense money given to him in succession has exceeded a thousand taels. Although the finances are still surplus, he has long seen that something is wrong. With the news coming from Fucheng, he immediately understood. No more incense money for life or death.
Shen Ping had already said, "Your Excellency, it will cost a lot to deal with the ghosts. If there is no supply of incense money, it will be difficult for a poor woman to make a meal without rice."
The county magistrate picked up the tea. After taking a sip, "I can't do anything."
Shen Ping sighed, "In this case, the poor Taoist can only go back to Changling Temple. If ghosts appear in the Liu Mansion in the future, the county magistrate should hire someone else. ”
Hear this.
The county magistrate's expression turned ugly. He may not care about the life and death of the people in the county, but wealthy families and country squires are completely different. If they don't care about it, they will go to the capital to make a report, or they will not cooperate in other aspects.
"Taoist Master Lingzhen."
"Ghosts are rampant in the county. I believe you know what is going on. Changling Temple enjoys the incense of the people all year round. Do you really put the people of Shanyang at risk? Don't you care?"
He couldn't help but yelled angrily.
Shen Ping was silent for a while. In two months, he had already found out the reason why the ghosts kept appearing. The source was that the City God Yin Division opened the gate of ghosts in Shanyang County, filling the air with Yin energy, causing the ghosts to be eliminated. Endless.
And even if he takes action, it will be in vain without the help of Yinsi Guizhao. All he can do is keep the number of ghosts at a very small range.
"Your Excellency, the poor Taoist is just a Taoist disciple in Changling Temple,"
"The money for incense can be reduced, but it cannot be eliminated."
Leave a sentence .
He left with his junior brothers and sisters.
Looking at the backs of Shen Ping and the others, the county magistrate gritted his teeth angrily, "These Taoist priests will bring trouble to the imperial court sooner or later."
...
Yongzhou.
Da Zhao Kyoto.
Inside the Royal Study Room of the Imperial Palace.
Emperor Rende flipped through the memorials piled on the table, shaking his head and sighing. Ever since the imperial master proposed to reduce the number of naturalized Taoist priests and real people in Taoist temples around the world, and advised that the number of Taoist monks and priests should be reduced based on the number of Taoist priests in the world, and he advised that the number of official documents should be competed based on rankings in the ring, disasters have continued to occur in all prefectures, counties, and townships. Haunting means that monsters are raging. Things like this have actually happened several times in Da Zhao.
Behind the scenes are nothing more than those opposing forces making trouble.
But if you know it, you know it, but it is very troublesome to deal with it.
"Your Majesty, these Taoists are really abominable. Just because they have some strength, they don't take the Emperor and the world seriously."
The eunuch beside him said.
Emperor Rende still put the memorial on the table, "It's not like they've been here for a day or two, but when the emperor established the Dragon Vein and raised weapons, these Taoists did put a lot of effort behind the scenes, but now the tail is too big to fall off, which really gives me a headache."
"The Imperial Master."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
It didn't take long.
The National Preceptor in Taoist robes stood in the hall. He was tall and tall. He did not look like a Taoist priest, but a mighty general.
"National Master, I have asked you more than once, what should happen if the Taoist temples in the world rebel against each other? Have you thought of a countermeasure?"
The voice echoed in the hall.
The Imperial Master said calmly: "Although there are many Taoist temples in the world, only Tianshan, Kunlun, Emei and other powerful Taoist channels can influence the dynasty. As long as they don't move, the rest are not a concern. Now all states and counties seem to be the same. The chaos in the regiment actually did not harm the dynasty at all."
Emperor Rende frowned, "National Master, the people in various prefectures and counties are frequently attacked by monsters and ghosts, which leads to financial difficulties and people's livelihood. How can it not be harmful? "
The Imperial Master shook his head, "These are just temporary appearances. I already have a way to deal with it. I believe that those who ignore the world for their own selfishness will surely suffer the consequences. "
"Oh?"
Emperor Rende relaxed his brows, "Then I will wait for the good news, but there are ugly words ahead. If there is no improvement this time, I will have to slow down the plan. The master is a little aggrieved.”
The imperial master nodded, “I understand.”
It’s just that he is being blamed.
This was completely expected.
……
Chanling Temple.
Inside the Ancestral Hall Blessed Land.
The leader of Changling Temple saluted respectfully, "The 20th generation successor of Changling Dao Lineage has met all the ancestors."
The six surviving ancestors nodded one after another.
"How is the situation outside?"
"Still the same, there is no compromise on the part of the court."
The leader of Changling Temple replied.
"So, the imperial court intends to continue the stalemate like this?"
"If it continues, I'm afraid it will be difficult to stop."
"Yes, the ghost gates of the Yin Division of the City Gods in various places are opened. Over time, the Yin and Yang will inevitably conflict, and the pure and turbid will flow backwards, which will easily breed evildoers and monsters."
The six patriarchs said one after another.
The leader of Changling Temple said: "Masters, it is still early and it is difficult to make a decision, and it has always lasted up to one year. In the end, it always ended with a compromise by the court. It will definitely be the same this time. As long as If you control it well, there will be no big deal."
"No matter what happens to other Taoist temples, our Changling Temple will definitely patrol at all times to prevent monsters from breeding."
"In addition, there are Shanyang County. , my new spiritual disciple has already controlled the ghosts within a palm, I believe there will be no trouble.”
Listen.
The six ancestors nodded slowly.
“That Lingzhen disciple was ordinary when he first started. Unexpectedly, he is quite talented in spells. Now he is able to take charge of affairs. I think we can focus on training him.”
"Yes, Patriarch, the disciples know."
