Chapter 42 Jingzhen eats ghosts to get who, who is out there to harm her Xue Jingzhen...

Ma Yong found a hat, covered the ugly yin-yang head, and escorted the demon corpse back to the city.

When the leader of Duotian Sect first arrived in Sizhou, he flattened a mountain. This matter could not be concealed in any way and had to be reported truthfully.

Although the sect leader's magical powers are terrifying, his attitude is very obvious. Not only does he regard himself as a human, he also does not hide his preference for humans.

Although Ma Yong himself believed that humans were the most powerful of all spirits, he knew in his heart that demons and monsters also thought that humans were the most powerful. And there was nothing to be indignant about. Whoever had greater abilities had a stronger reason. That was all.

But this is not the case with Sect Leader Duotian. She is capable enough to establish her own sect, but she chooses to speak from a human perspective.

According to the ancestral teachings of our Taizu, those who are not of our race must have different hearts.

Can the court trust her?

Did her swordsman sister rush over at this critical moment to help her?

How many of her fellow disciples are there on that overseas fairy mountain? How many more will come later...

Thinking about it this way, since he infiltrated Luo Sect, Sect Master Duotian has already been planning a big game.

What about Luojiao Entertainment Education? I'm afraid they are just pawns secretly manipulated by her.

This person's scheming is unfathomable. He wants to seize the heavens and the sky, and I'm afraid he is trying to seize the heavens of the Great Zhou.

The more Ma Yong thought about it, the more worried he became. He felt that he had been drawn into a whirlpool of undercurrents and it was too late to escape.

Not knowing that in Ma Daolu's heart, he had become a terrifying existence with deep scheming, countless hidden cards, and a powerful backstage, Li Zhou was still counting the gains from this monster-hunting trip.

[Congratulations on obtaining: Bull Demon Pill *1]

[There is a faint smell of grass. Old Cow still likes to eat vegetarian food! ]

[Congratulations on obtaining: Bear Demon Pill *1]

[Be careful about the robes being stolen! Ah, it's already dead, so it's okay. ]

[Congratulations on obtaining: Tiger Demon Pill *3]

[The family of three is all together, but unfortunately the little granddaughter has not formed a demon pill yet, so they can't be reunited. ]

[Congratulations on unlocking your new talent: Be true to yourself]

The sect leader and the swordsman looked at each other, and Li Zhou nodded repeatedly in his heart, of course I like myself the best.

In addition, Li Zhou also experienced a lot of emotions, not only fear, but also the anger and sadness contributed by the tiger monster, and the surprise and joy of Hong Zhu, Xing Can, Qi Ying and other monster hunters.

Joy cultivates the mind, fear cultivates the kidneys, shock cultivates the gallbladder, and sadness cultivates the heart.

Finally, other parts of Li Zhou's body besides his kidneys began to move.

The spiritual energy flowed through her internal organs, strengthening her bones, muscles and skin, making her blood flow more active, and she could sense the flowers blooming, the grass growing, the birds chirping, the insects buzzing, and all things having emotions.

An invisible barrier dissipated like mist, and the second level of "Juan Er Gao" was broken through naturally.

Li Zhou looked into the distance and saw leaves sprouting, bamboo shoots growing, insects mating, and birds building nests...

The great way values life, and in her eyes, life is everywhere.

She bent down and picked up the "Watching the Mountains and Enjoying the Water" plaque that was broken into two pieces.

Suddenly I realized that this sign is very suitable for her. After some repairs, it should still be usable.

The main thing is to let her think for herself, but she can't think of anything better.

I didn't expect that she was not as educated as a tiger in the mountains...

Li Zhou fell into deep thought.

Do you want to think of one yourself?

"Lord Sect Master."

Li Zhou was lost in thought when he heard three overlapping voices. He looked up and saw Xing Can, Qi Ying, and the red candle they were carrying.

It would be fine if Xing Can and Qi Ying had nowhere to go, but why didn’t Hong Zhu leave?

Meeting her questioning gaze, Xing Can said in a hoarse voice with his throat that had not yet fully recovered from the injury: "I have a way to treat Lady Hong's leg. Can you stay here for a few days? I will leave immediately after her injury recovers."

Li Zhou nodded. Not to mention staying for a few days, it would be fine if everyone stayed, otherwise the sect would be unpopular.

Hongzhu glanced at the female swordsman who had walked into the forest and started practicing swordplay as if no one was around, and shivered uncontrollably.

She originally thought that this female swordsman was just on a whim and was wearing human skin to play around in the world, but she didn't expect that she was actually the junior sister of the Duotian Sect Master.

She didn't know how the leader of the Duotian Sect was related to the Demon Hunting Bureau, but even Ma Daolu was respectful to her, so it was impossible for her, a mere demon hunter, to do anything to them.

Logically speaking, this pair of sisters are clearly suspected of being demons...

He let out a sigh of relief, trying not to think about the sword energy full of worms, and Hongzhu, who was lying on the chair, saluted with his hands crossed: "Thank you, Master."

Anyone with a normal IQ would think that since Hong Zhu was a demon hunter, why didn't he go back to the Demon Hunting Division to heal his wounds? Could these two be spies left by the Demon Hunting Division to help them?

But Li Zhou had no such thoughts at all, he was just sincerely happy.

She nodded slightly and said calmly, "It's okay."

Seeing her without any scruples, Hongzhu, who did have some sneaky thoughts, felt hot on the face and felt a little ashamed.

She requested to stay in Yinyuan, on the one hand because it was inconvenient for Xing Can to go to the Demon Hunting Bureau, and on the other hand because she wanted to observe the swordsman up close.

Hong Zhu, who had never seen Li Zhou swallow the evil god alive, looked at the kind-hearted appearance of the sect leader and suddenly began to doubt whether he had seen it wrong before. Because of his blurred vision due to injuries, he mistook the sword energy for a worm.

While Hong Zhu was constantly doubting himself, Qi Ying, who was wearing a crane cloak and holding a jade whisk, and looked like an immortal, had already said very naturally: "Master, I would like to ask, what are the requirements for joining the Duotian Sect?"

Hongzhu looked at her in horror.

Xing Can lowered his head and didn't react.

Qi Ying promoted himself openly: "Although I am a little ugly, I am good at refining elixirs. Half of the demons at the banquet died at my hands. I have been working in a circus troupe since I was young, and I am quite good at dealing with people. Because I was poor since I was a child, I also learned needlework and could mend clothes. Later, I started my own business and opened a clothing store. The crane cloak Taoist robe I am wearing was made by myself. For such a big sect, we must have clothes to wear and food to eat. Oh, my cooking skills are also very good..."

She spoke so clearly that Hong Zhu was dumbfounded. How could she introduce herself like this? Would a figure like the leader of Duotian Sect really be moved by these things?

Li Zhou couldn't hear what was in her heart, so naturally he couldn't tell her, that was too clever.

She felt that Qi Ying was her confidant. When she was out, she just wanted to earn some face. It would be great if her clothes were of a higher quality.

Being able to cook is also a plus. After practicing so hard, how can you not even be able to satisfy your appetite?

As for elixirs, Li Zhou was not interested in them. She had a bad impression of elixirs, feeling that they were partially poisonous. She was afraid that the toxins would accumulate in her body after taking them.

Li Zhou, who was very particular about food, thought so.

In fact, Qi Ying did not show such confidence, but she was able to climb to this position from nothing by just doing it regardless of the consequences.

Opportunity waits for no one, so there is no time to hesitate.

How could she normally have the chance to come into contact with a big shot like the leader of the Duotian Sect, who even the Daolu of a state had to flatter her?

Qi Ying spoke faster and faster, and finished everything in one breath. He seemed confident, but in fact he was nervous, and his eyes were trying hard to suppress the nervousness and anxiety.

What if the Sect Master thought that he was being too presumptuous, or that someone like her was not worthy...

"Can."

Qi Ying had just begun to daydream when she heard the sect leader answer her.

She looked up in disbelief and stared at the sect leader blankly.

"The first thing you need to do is to customize Taoist robes for the sect... Make twenty pieces first. Here are five hundred silver coins."

Taking out five hundred taels of silver and handing it to Qi Ying, Li Zhou thought happily, now she doesn't have to worry about the clan's clothing, that's great.

Glancing at the cleaned courtyard, Li Zhou remembered that Ma Daolu said he would send craftsmen to help her expand the courtyard. His eyes fell on Xing Can, who was in a daze.

There is also free labor here.

"How about using the sect's design drawings to pay for your and Hongzhu's boarding expenses?"

Xing Can looked up blankly: "Me?"

Li Zhou felt guilty for a moment. She just wanted to save some money. Fine, fine, if the design is good, she will charge more. She has a lot of life experience. This kind of thing cannot be said in advance, lest the other party raises the price: "Aren't you a Mohist? This is something you are good at, right?"

For some reason, Xing Can's eyes suddenly turned red. He nodded, his lips trembling for a long time, and he only uttered one sentence: "I will definitely live up to the trust of the sect master."

Li Zhou:?

Did he think I would give him a lot of bonus?

Not quite understanding why Xing Can was so excited, Li Zhou was alert and took two steps back. He called himself the leader of Duotian Sect and said, "After the design is completed, we will build the kitchen. I have other things to do and need to go to Sizhou City. You can take care of yourselves."

After that, he took out another five hundred taels of silver and handed it to Qi Ying: "This is your meal fee."

Qi Ying held the heavy silver in his hands, opened his lips, and then fell silent again.

Li Zhou didn't pay attention and was immersed in his own plan.

After building a sect, of course we need to start recruiting disciples.

Li Zhou did not forget the agreement he had made with Cong'er to go find her again in three days to see if she was still willing to join the Duotian Sect.

There is also a child named Ji Rui, who is certified as gifted by Ma Daolu himself. She has to go there quickly, otherwise he will be taken in by Ma Daolu first.

After all, that is the template of the protagonist. It is better to let her bear the suffering of the protagonist teacher instead of torturing Ma Daolu's old bones.

Thinking of this, Li Zhou quickened his pace.

At this moment, the female swordsman who stayed in Yinyuan heard a voice behind her.

First, Qi Ying sighed and said, "Everyone knows that you can't judge a person by his appearance. How many people are there like the Sect Master who truly treats everyone equally and teaches without distinction?"

Her voice was light and she seemed to be in disbelief: "I have only met the Sect Master once, but she actually entrusted all the finances to me. This is what they call "don't employ a person you doubt, and trust a person you employ, right?" Although she didn't say a word, she told me that she completely accepted me. After joining the Duotian Sect, I am a member of the Duotian Sect. I am no longer a lonely ghost without a father or a mother... I, Qi Ying, actually have this day..."

Then Hong Zhu said to Xing Can: "You should also understand the master's deep meaning, right?"

Xing Can, who had seemed to have given up hope before, said in a hoarse voice, "I understand. The Sect Master gave me the task of designing and building the house because she didn't want me to continue to be depressed. She wanted to tell me that in Duotian Sect, everyone can play their part, and no one will be excluded because of factional disputes. All that you have learned throughout your life will eventually be put to good use."

Hongzhu said with relief: "If you can understand this truth, then the master's efforts have not been in vain."

The swordsman Li Zhou, who seemed to be practicing swordplay but was actually eavesdropping, suddenly realized: It turns out that I was not being lazy, but was encouraging everyone in my own way.

Sect leader Li Zhou immediately accepted that he was such a kind person, nodded, boasted about himself in his heart, rode on the horse left by Ma Dao Lu, and was about to gallop towards Sizhou City.

The horse's hoof suddenly stepped on a soft object, which startled her. She grabbed the reins and took the horse back a few steps.

After a burst of chirping, a weasel got up from the ground, rubbed his waist, kowtowed and said: "Little demon greets the immortal master."

Li Zhou sat on the horse's back, thinking about what roasted weasel tasted like, and lowered his head to ask, "What do you want?"

"Sir, please allow me to report that fifty miles west of here, a group of dog-barbarians are using the name of road construction to secretly murder the people of our Great Zhou with the art of controlling ghosts." The weasel said, lying on the ground, "As the guardian fairy, I, on behalf of the villagers of Longgou Village, have the audacity to ask the fairy master to make a decision."

Li Zhou was startled. He didn't expect that his fame had spread so widely. He coughed and said, "How did you know to find me?"

The yellow-skinned man raised his head, smiled flatteringly, took out a map from his armpits, and slowly unfolded it.

The picture showed the figure of Sect Master Xue Jingzhen, wearing crimson clothes and a jade belt, with dark eyebrows and bright eyes. His mouth was open, and his sharp white teeth were biting a green-faced and fanged evil ghost. The cold and shining steel teeth were really intimidating. The trickle of blood flowing between his teeth seemed to reveal a strong murderous aura. His dark eyes were cold and ruthless.

This painting is exquisitely done and lifelike. If it wasn't him who was eating the ghost, Li Zhou would definitely praise the painting for being well done.

Seeing the flamboyant painting of "Jing Zhen Eating a Ghost" in the blank space, Li Zhou's heart skipped a beat: "Who painted this?"

Fortunately, my friend couldn't see this.

Who, who is ruining Xue Jingzhen’s reputation outside?
