Qiu Ji has a problem.
There is a problem with someone in the ancient Qiang city...
That means, the traitor who has been exiled for many years from the ancient Qiang city may not have taken over Qiu Ji, but instead, someone else has taken over?
Indeed, in this way, we can have a good reason to not find any problem in Qiu Ji.
This is not a simple complexity.
With so many people in the ancient Qiang city, who will he choose?!
We want to dig him out, which is not easy, just like finding a needle in the ocean.
"What is the method of removing the Dan?" I asked.
"The Malevolent Soul can suppress the Corpse Dan because the Corpse Dan is itself, his parasite. In another place, where Qi congregates, the Corpse Dan will absorb Qi continuously, making it impossible to hide. He will not be able to suppress it. Combined with true men forming an array, they can restrain the Malevolent Soul of Dai Hong and thus force out the Corpse Dan," Wu Jinluan explained in a deep voice.
I was speechless.
Change a place...
Qi congregates...
That is not just Xuanming Mountain? The ancestral masters of the Qiang ethnic group, the elders of true men, have long been sleeping there, guarded by Princess Zhi and protected by Emperor Zhi.
The ancient Qiang city itself has an issue. With someone trying to kill me, I can't go there at all.
The most densely arranged place for the funeral shadow observatory, the outer field also has poisonous zombies and ghosts. Once I go there, I will be someone's prey.
"I must step by step." I opened my mouth again.
"Yeah, the people of the ancient Qiang city are decent, especially at the Pure Yang Taoist Temple. Even the master who has shattered the yang spirit allows us to witness it. We can't let them be subtly misled. Also, there's a master who can calculate and kill with Feng Shui, it's too terrifying. He wants to kill you; it's not just been one or two days," Wu Jinlan said.
His last sentence also pointed out a detail.
Calculating Feng Shui must also take time to do it so perfectly, leaving no traces, and forcing people to directly draw conclusions based on the existing events, directly targeting Qiu Ji.
"Is it possible that he is deliberately doing this?" I asked again.
"What?" Wu Jinluan was slightly puzzled.
"If I die, it will be a great victory for him. If I don't die, he knows that I will definitely suspect Qiu Ji! Killing by using someone else as a weapon?!" I spoke with certainty.
"This..."
In an instant, Wu Jinluan's head began to sweat.
"A win-win situation, it is not impossible. Now we have too few contacts with the ancient Qiang people, and we can't draw any conclusions." Wu Jinluan sighed and shook his head.
"We need to invite a true man back," Wu Jinlan steered the conversation back.
"I will go and ask the master brother," I said.
Now there is no way to remove the Dan, and with the true man guarding Mao Sheng, they can watch over Dai Hong's evil soul at any time. Otherwise, it is very possible for him to escape using Mao Sheng's body.
Wu Jinlan didn't follow me; he still needed to stay here and guard.
After leaving this place, I walked in the direction of the main hall of the Pure Yang Taoist Temple.
Upon arrival, I saw that the true men were all there, and the three ancient Qiang city true men were sitting together.
"Big brother," I bowed first, then greeted the other true men, and then told him about the matter of watching over Mao Sheng, and briefly mentioned the evil soul within the Corpse Dan.
Everyone in the audience looked thoughtful.
"I will go." Si Yan whispered and stood up.
"This matter originates from my ancient Qiang city, Second Elder, you go," Lao Zhenqi spoke directly, making a decision.
Liu Yujie stood up and went straight out of the hall.
"Haha, Xian Shen friend, take a seat," Lao Zhenqi made another gesture of invitation.
There were two empty seats beside He You and Si Yan.
I bowed and sat down again.
Because I had arrived, for a moment, there was a trace of silence in the air.
After a moment, Lao Zhenqi opened his mouth: "About the matter of the teacher's departure, it will be about two and a half days. I have already told the others about the situation. There is nothing to pay attention to. Just watch quietly when the time comes."
Lao Zhenqi's words were directed at me.
I nodded slightly, indicating that I understood.
"Qiu Ji, do you have any problems?"
"When you left, you reminded me that I need to verify if he really has a problem. Do you have any evidence to support it?"
Lao Zhenqi opened his mouth again.
He didn't hesitate to speak in front of others in the hall.
"Mr. Wu can't see any problems; we need to wait until nightfall for the Dean Wei to inspect."
I answered truthfully.
"What if the Dean Wei also can't see anything?"
"Can you be sure that he has a problem?"
Luo Zhenqi's fingers gently tapped on the armrest of the chair.
In fact, I originally thought that Liu family would not mention this matter for a while. On the surface, Qiu Ji has conflicts with us. If he doesn't have a problem, it's equivalent to us offending him.
The attitude of the Liu family seems to be taking my side?
In fact, if you think deeply, they are also responsible for the ancient Qiang city.
But if the Liu family directly investigates Qiu Ji and still can't find any problems, there may be a risk of division within the ancient Qiang city.
I have stayed here for a long time and am aware that the ancient Qiang city is not dominated by the Pure Yang Taoist Temple. It is a combination of Feng Shui and Taoism, both complementing each other.
"Liu Da Zhenlǎo, regarding this matter, I will carefully ponder with Mr. Wu. Just treat us as two outsiders and don't interfere. Try not to ask for trouble and avoid causing unnecessary damage to the ancient Qiang city." My indirect response hints that he should not force his way in.
As for the fact that we need to borrow the situation on Xuanming Mountain, I didn't say it now.
The Liu family can ignore the people in the room, but I need to be mindful of their secrecy.
I can roughly guess the reason. The Pure Yang Taoist Temple and the Liu family have always been upright and open, and they don't want to bear the criticism of others, so they act directly like this.
At this time, I heard a series of screams that were very loud and vaguely familiar.
Everyone in the hall looked out, and just then, they could see several elders dressed in red robes, using long whips to strike Liu Ziyu.
Due to the angle of the hall, it is still faintly visible. Many disciples, including Liu Ziyu and Liu Moyu, are gathered around to watch.
"Since he didn't mean it, isn't this punishment too heavy? The solitary-armed Daoist master was just begging for mercy." He You said.
"Indeed, I've heard of the Liu family's Thirteen Whipping Techniques from Yunjin Mountain. A round of this technique could leave someone stripped to the bone, and it's being administered by a half-step true man. Isn't it too harsh?" Tang Wu Zhi opened his mouth.
"It's already a favor to the various of you, just let the later-ranked elders handle it. If it weren't for your presence today, it would have been the second elder or me holding the whip," Luo Zhenqi shook his head slightly.
"The Pure Yang Taoist Temple's admonition is that whatever you do must be able to withstand any investigation. He had a crush on Daolong Master Si Yan, and he could do better things than using these little tricks behind the scenes."
"Not only is it shameful, but it also wrongfully harms others. This punishment does not outweigh the suffering that Elder Mao Sheng is enduring on his bed," Luo Zhenqi's explanation was interrupted as Liu Ziyu received two more lashes of the whip. He curled up on the ground like a shrimp.
