Qi Wuhuo used the underground escape method of the earth gods to leave the residence of Lord Lingmiao and appeared among the mountains. He saw mountains and ridges on both sides, and each had its own mountain gods and earth gods. It seemed that they all came because of the sudden accident of Yujie Mountain God. When they saw the young Taoist in a blue Taoist robe walking out with a sword case on his back, their faces changed suddenly, and they just bowed and said nothing more.

Qi Wuhuo returned the greeting and left.

Only after the young Taoist went very far away did the mountain gods breathe a sigh of relief, with cold sweat on their foreheads. Although they had not done anything derelict in their duties to attract the attention of the Arctic Exorcists, who could not have made small mistakes in these hundreds of years? Even though they knew that the Arctic Exorcists would not take action because of these things.

But I still felt frightened and terrified.

One of the mountain gods couldn't help but sigh: "He is full of murderous aura."

"It's the killer embryo from the Arctic Exorcism House."

"I heard that he killed the earth god of a mountain with one sword."

"Hey, when did the Arctic Exorcism Institute produce such a young and fierce judge?"

The young Taoist walked to the foot of the mountain, stopped, and stretched out his hand. The little medicine spirit was still sitting in his palm and dozing off. It seemed that it sensed something, yawned loudly, stretched, and sat up straight. While yawning, it rubbed its eyes and asked in a babbling voice what time it was.

The little guy is always carefree.

The young Taoist looked at the sky and replied, "The sun is probably about to set."

Xiao Yaoling suddenly woke up: "Ah, then I want to go home."

It patted its face, and the young Taoist squatted slightly with his palms against the ground. The little medicine spirit walked to the edge of the palms, then turned over, grabbed the young man's fingers with both hands, and then leaned down, moving its little feet, trying to step on a small stone, then it felt at ease and slowly climbed down.

He still seemed sleepy, and waved to the young Taoist priest while yawning.

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "There may be danger in the nearby mountains. Even if there are patrols by the gods, the evil spirits and miasma are everywhere, so there will always be some omissions. They can only come to deal with it. Do you want to stay with me in the Taoist temple for a while, and you can also play with Wonton."

Little Peacock Qi Wonton nodded repeatedly.

The little medicine spirit thought about it, but still shook his head and said, "But I still have to collect my nuts. The flowers planted in my home are about to bloom, and the good leaves collected this year are also very comfortable. I also made an appointment with the birds that often come to my home to watch the sunset tomorrow morning. I can't miss the appointment like this."

"I like living in the mountains and don't want to leave."

After answering seriously, He waved His hand, jumped into the ground, and disappeared.

The little peacock felt very regretful.

He jumped down and scratched the ground with his claws, then pecked at the soil curiously, but still nothing.

The young Taoist smiled, picked up the little peacock and put it on his shoulder. The little peacock was still puzzled and asked, "Aqi, Aqi, where did he go? How come he disappeared as soon as he landed on the ground?"

The young Taoist replied, "That is the method of escaping underground."

"It is a method that only the Earth God has, and it requires the use of the Earth God's ground veins."

"oh……"

"Can spells be eaten?"

The young Taoist couldn't help laughing and said, "You, these are magical powers and spells, they are invisible and intangible things, how can you eat magical powers and spells?"

The little peacock's eyes lit up: "Does that mean no one has ever experienced this magical power and spell?"

"Then I must work hard to become the first peacock who can swallow all the magical powers and spells in one gulp."

It imagined the future, felt proud, and waved its wings while standing on the young Taoist's shoulders.

He held his head high and said the nickname Yunqin had given him with a proud demeanor:

"Hehe, someone who can swallow all the magic and supernatural powers in the world."

"It's the Peacock Wheel King Three Yellow Chicken Wonton!"

The young Taoist couldn't help but burst out laughing.

The worries in his heart also dissipated. He flicked the forehead of the little peacock with his fingers, and then the young Taoist turned around and said:

"I'll go back first..."

"Okay, let's go home and eat!"

When they walked all the way back to the city, they saw the two stone sculptures on the top of Zhongzhou City, Chaofeng and Jiaotu happily greeting the young Taoist. Recently, Qi Wuhuo lived in the Lianyang Temple in Zhongzhou City and went there frequently, so he could often meet these two.

Chao Feng invited enthusiastically: "Come on, little Taoist priest, it's sunset now, come up and take a look."

The young Taoist smiled and nodded.

This time, he no longer needed to use the invisibility spell and quietly walked up the steps on the side. There was water vapor and mist blocking the light and hiding his shape, and gusts of wind lifted his body. He soared up and in a blink of an eye he was on the top of the extremely high city wall. Behind him was the bustling Zhongzhou city, and in front of him was a wide view with the setting sun.

“What a beautiful view.”

Chao Feng said proudly: "Of course."

"The scenery is different every day. Sometimes when the sun's light is blocked, the clouds turn into colorful sunset glows. The light of the setting sun shines through the gaps in the clouds, falling on the road like layers of light beams. It looks ten times more beautiful than it does now!"

"When that time comes, we will call you."

"Just come and see me again."

Jiaotu nodded and said, "We will call you."

"But I hope you'll be in a better mood next time."

The young Taoist priest sat cross-legged at the highest point of the city. He was slightly startled and said gently, "Am I in a bad mood?"

Chao Feng said: "We have seen hundreds of people coming and going here."

"You can tell that, too."

"Last time, your cultivation was not as high as it is now, but your demeanor looked like that of a real person."

"But now, your cultivation is so high, but you look like a mortal."

"I heard that a true person is pure and has no worries. You definitely don't qualify now."

The young Taoist couldn't help laughing and said, "Pure and clean, without worries, this refers to the real people in ancient times. It is not the same as the real people in the cultivation realm of this era. However, I do have some worries... There are some things that are difficult to decide."

Chaofeng and Jiaotu looked at him curiously.

But the young Taoist didn't say much, just quietly watched the sunset slowly descend, dissipated in his eyes, and then watched the stars rise up. At this time, he could see Niu Su in the sky. He thought, if the girl encountered this situation, what choice would she make? What about Uncle Niu?

The young Taoist thought for a long time, his clothes wet by the night dew, before he got up and left. Jiaotu and Chaofeng looked at him with some worry. In the hundreds of years they had lived, they had seen many people enter this state, and most of them had not been able to come out of it.

"Can he come out?"

“I don’t know.”

Chaofeng was a little sad: "Can he still come here to watch the sunset?"

Jiaotu thought for a moment and replied:

"If it's just him, then it's OK."

Chaofeng emphasized: "People must come, and their hearts must come too."

“When you look at the sunset, your heart looks at the sunset. When you look at the sunset, you just look at the sunset.”

"This is what it means to be truly here. This is what I want."

Jiaotu thought for a long time and replied:

“I don’t know.”

So they both felt melancholy and didn't argue for a long time.

The young Taoist was walking on the street. This time he did not go back to Lianyang Temple. He had some other things he wanted to figure out. As for the matter of the Dragon King of Jinghe River, Qi Wuhuo had witnessed the incident between the dragon son and the fortune teller with his own eyes, so he knew that the rain was all caused by the dragon son.

However, the verdict given by the Arctic Exorcism Institute was that the one to be skinned alive was the Dragon King of the Jing River.

It was the Arctic Exorcism House that never went to investigate.

Or should I say——

The Arctic Exorcism House doesn't care about the hidden truth at all.

What is needed is that lives are paid for the collapse of order.

As for the hidden truth, they don't care at all and won't waste their energy on it.

Hidden truth?

Ha, how ridiculous!

Now that you are in this position, you should take up your responsibilities.

Since there is a problem with your responsibilities, you are naturally the one to be held accountable.

This is a simple truth, and the Arctic Exorcist House will never care about your reasons.

Those who are in positions should do their job. If you are in positions but do not fulfill your responsibilities, whether it is because of personal feelings, carelessness, or being deceived, all these are excuses. You should pay the price. Do not talk about personal feelings or sympathy. Because you did not perform your duties and disrupted the order, the sentient beings who died because of this -

There is always a private affair!

You have your own private feelings.

We have our own axioms.

It can be seen that the four words "only kill, not cross" are not false.

The bottom of order is only blood and sharp blades.

After beheading those who have failed in their duties, the Arctic Exorcism Institute will investigate. If there are those who have deceived, deceived, or harmed, they will be listed as the main culprits.

The Exorcism Court, the most powerful in the heavenly court, is feared by the heavenly officials, earthly officials, and water officials of the three realms. The warriors, who secretly call themselves killer embryos, will be like a sharp sword, hunting down and investigating madly from heaven to hell, and then kill those who deceive, harm, and take advantage of them with their swords, making them unable to be reborn forever.

The force of his vengeance will scare everyone.

Because if necessary, the leader of all the generals in the Arctic Exorcism Institute, who is also the leader of all the Arctic saints, the Grand Marshal of the 81st Arctic Army, the Great True Lord Tianpeng of the Dou Department, will personally hunt him down - except for the Three Pure Ones, even the Four Imperial Gods may not be able to escape from this subordinate unscathed in a fight, and he is also the most troublesome opponent for the Great Master Xuandu of Miaole Tianzun.

He was the chief of the gods of war in heaven, and the commander-in-chief of the 81st armies of the Dou and Lei departments.

In the Thunder Department, he is the chief commander of the Thunder Department;

Anyone who practices thunder magic cannot command the Thunder God without Tian Peng; anyone who practices thunder magic alone cannot show its effectiveness without Tian Peng.

In heaven, he is the God of Sky, assisting the Jade Emperor, and his rank is just below the Four Heavenly Kings.

Yu Dou Department is the leader of the Nine Stars of Beidou, and his honorific title is Po Jun!

In terms of Taoist tradition, he is the first disciple of Yuqing, and is known as Tianpeng Yuzhen Shouyuan Zhenjun.

Taoism reveres him as the Lord of All Benevolence and Righteousness.

Buddhists respectfully call it the Protector of Heaven and Eliminator of Demons.

Even though the Three Pure Ones have different personalities, they are all the first disciples of the sect.

They are all unparalleled talents in the world, some are handsome and calm, some are considerate, and some are ruthless in killing.

Only in this way can one be worthy of being the founding disciple of the Taoist Ancestor.

The last time one of the Twelve Jade Purities broke the law, he was ordered by his master to personally kill that junior fellow apprentice. He listed all his crimes and beat him with the Beidi method until his soul was shattered and he would never be reincarnated. This was blood proof of the uprightness and ruthlessness of the Beiji Exorcism Institute, which had no personal feelings at all and would not show leniency to anyone just because he was born in the Jade Purity sect.

It is precisely because the North Pole Exorcism Institute possesses the highest level of combat power among the Three Pure Ones in the Three Realms, and the most fatal thing is that this highest combat power is always in a state of readiness, and can leave the Heavenly Court at any time and hunt down people everywhere at the order of the Northern Emperor.

That is why it is able to frighten the countless ghosts, gods and immortals in the three realms.

This is something that would make even the most stubborn beings' scalps tingle upon hearing it.

It also represents the attitude of the Arctic Exorcism House, which is sharp and direct.

The name of [Jinghe Dragon King] was listed in the judge seal given to Qi Wuhuo by the Beiji Exorcism Institute.

No changes.

But the young Taoist himself also needed to give a verdict, and, even if he was just a temporary judge of Five Thunders, he would be the one to carry out the execution with the sword. The young Taoist walked to the Mingzhen Taoist Alliance. The people in the Taoist Alliance were already familiar with this young Taoist who had settled down in the Lianyang Temple. They were just curious as to why he suddenly came today, so they invited him in.

After the tea was served, the middle-aged Taoist came hurriedly. After some questioning, he found out that Qi Wuhuo wanted to check the files of Jinzhou from that year.

"Jinzhou Files?"

"Hasn't it been checked?"

The middle-aged Taoist was puzzled, but he still ran to move the file out. Qiong Yu had already paid the price for Qi Wuhuo, and these files would be open to Qi Wuhuo forever. He could read them at any time. When he unfolded the file again, Qi Wuhuo turned to the front and saw the content he had seen the last time he read it -

[A blazing energy suddenly appeared, and then swept across the entire Jinzhou with unrivaled force, causing the vegetation in the entire Jinzhou to wither and the rivers to dry up. This was the beginning of the disaster.]

The young Taoist brushed past the line of text [vegetation withered, rivers dried up], which he had overlooked when he first read it, and asked, "If the rivers dried up and people had no water to drink, how did they survive?"

The middle-aged Taoist was surprised, and then he also noticed this thing that was most easily overlooked in the generous and heroic experiences of so many cultivators, and said: "This... is true. If a person has no food, he can survive for several days, but if he has no water, he may die in two days. During this disaster, the entire Jinzhou area of ​​thousands of miles was dried up."

"Add to that the scorching heat and exposure. Not only will there be no water to drink, but the moisture in people's bodies will evaporate and everyone will die. It's weird, weird."

He flipped through the books and answered after a long while: "Ah, yes..."

"A few days after that disaster, there was a sudden downpour, and it rained for several days."

“So the people in Jinzhou survived at that time.”

"I only had the strength to hold on until later. In the data collected by the Dao League, almost all the survivors mentioned that rain, and they all had a great liking for the Water God afterwards."

"It's just strange. With such a blazing fire poison, even the rivers in Jinzhou have been evaporated dry. The water gods have left in a hurry, but it's still raining. Such heavy rain..."

The young Taoist suddenly asked:

"Seven years ago, was there a drought in Zhongzhou..."

The middle-aged Taoist answered subconsciously: "Not really, but there was less rain in Zhongzhou that year, and the water level of the Jing River dropped to the lowest point in history."

He immediately realized: "Master, you mean that the Dragon King of Jinghe River wants to make it rain?"

"Then he is the greatest contributor to the Jinzhou incident."

He suddenly felt something, flipped through the books, and said, "According to the Ministry of Households a few years ago, Jinzhou has a population of more than 12 million people in thousands of miles. If you add those who are not native to the place of origin, the number will be even higher. Our Taoist Alliance has rescued 150,000 people who fell into the demon country, and confirmed that more than 3 million people died here, 2 million are missing and their whereabouts are unknown, and the remaining survivors are 7.4 million."

"During those three days of rain, the water level of the Jing River dropped to its lowest level in 300 years, saving lives."

"More than seven million four hundred and thirty thousand."

"The rest of the creatures are countless."

"Hmm? Taoist Priest?"

"Master Qi?"

The middle-aged Taoist was impressed by the horror of this number. When he raised his head, he saw the young Taoist lowering his eyes. Even in the Taoist Alliance, he had seen countless people coming and going, but he had never seen such emotions even in those true people.

Thickness creates waves.

Finally, the young Taoist thanked him and stood up.

It's like being in a vortex.

The middle-aged Taoist didn't know what to say for a moment, he just felt that it would be useless for him to say anything now. The sun had risen, and the young Taoist left step by step. At this moment, he just knew what a calamity was. If you enter a calamity, you will encounter great waves. He thought all the way, carrying the sword box on his back, and unknowingly, he had walked to the place where he had met the old man Ao Liu before.

The trees on one side of the bridge and the chessboard.

But today the place is naturally empty.

Qi Wuhuo sat down, took off the sword case and put it aside. Although there was no chessboard, the flow and change of the innate Qi naturally turned into a transparent chessboard, crisscrossing like before. He picked up the chess piece and this time when he moved it up and down at the position of the old Dragon King, he realized why the dragon-slaying game was such a difficult game throughout the ages. At this moment, every step of playing chess was different from his mood that day.

He picked up the chess piece and was lost in thought, when his spirit suddenly sensed something and he raised his eyes slightly to look.

I heard a burst of noisy voices: "What? The old man is not here?"

"It's almost the New Year, and I've already prepared a banquet, but he's not here. Is he playing chess here again?"

The young Taoist held the chess piece in his right hand and looked up.

On the bridge, there was a handsome young man in gorgeous clothes, with silk on both sides, looking like a child of a wealthy family, but with a bit of frivolity. He was looking towards this place, but under the big tree, there was a Taoist in blue sitting, holding a chess piece in one hand, with the sword box ringing behind him, and his eyes were as peaceful and drooping as the sea of ​​clouds.

"Longzi..."
