After watching the Yun family members leave, Zhou Qing and the other three had a brief discussion and made a decision.

Run away! Since the opportunity to become the mountain god has come to an end, there is no need to stay any longer.

Without the blessing of the mountain god, treasures will not appear quickly and their quality will become average.

Then the competition for treasure hunting here will become more and more fierce, and the treasures will become fewer and fewer. If we continue, the gains will outweigh the losses. It is better to return to Heiyun and practice in peace.

The God’s perspective is indeed useful, but you also need the treasure to find it. It is impossible to create something out of nothing.

They stayed in there for a full twelve days during the half-month opportunity, and their purpose of honing their martial arts had been achieved.

The news that Heiyun Town, the Yun family, and Taibai Martial Arts School had come out one after another spread, causing some speculation.

There are few reports of people finding treasures in the Black Mountains, but this has not dampened people's enthusiasm for entering the mountains.

After all, it's because I'm afraid of being poor.

In the past, people from Black Cloud could enter Black Mountain at any time to hunt wild beasts and search for treasures.

But people from other counties rarely have places like Black Mountain nearby.

For example, in Qinghua County, there are only some barren mountains and wilderness nearby, and there are very few spiritual plants and even wild beasts.

Warriors can only practice hard and slowly. They can't even eat a bite of wild beast meat, so how can they improve themselves?

After the mountain god's blessing disappears, Black Mountain may become less attractive to the practitioners in Black Cloud Town.

After all, it is dangerous, the competition for treasures is fierce, and it is many times more difficult than before.

But for these warriors who have never had the opportunity to access such a precious land before, this is not a problem.

It's good enough to have a place to hang out, why do you need a carriage?

Whether it is blessed by the mountain god or not, Montenegro is a paradise longed for by outsiders.

Over the past half month, some of the native residents of Heiyun Town have felt somewhat looked down upon.

Humph, a bunch of stinky outsiders, you come to my Heiyun Town to beg for food.

People from the county town and the county town are so ignorant.

Peach forest.

Zhou Qing handed Lian Cheng's soul and space bag to Lu Qingmo.

Those corpses had already been buried in Black Mountain by Zhou Qing, and the evil spirits were also directly converted by him.

"I didn't get anything out of the question." Zhou Qing said, "These people from the Tianmu Sect are really not afraid of torture."

Lu Qingmo nodded, having expected this.

"The reason why the Tianmu Cult can still stand firm despite being wanted by all parties is not only because of its strong strength, but also because of its outstanding confidentiality methods."

"For a believer like this, even if we break the restrictions on his soul, we won't be able to get the real core information."

In a normal sect, ordinary disciples know a lot of information about the sect, but this kind of evil and crooked ways are too secretive.

Lu Qingmo took out some evil items from the space bag and returned them to Zhou Qing.

This is their old tradition.

Except for things that will lead people astray, everything else belongs to Zhou Qing.

But this time, Bai Ruoyue and the others will naturally get a share.

Liancheng was quite wealthy, and he carried with him spiritual plants, elixirs, weapons, magic tools, Taoist magic and martial arts, but a considerable portion of them obviously belonged to other people.

In Montenegro alone, Lian Cheng killed at least dozens of people. If Zhou Qing did not have a God's perspective, he would probably not be able to catch such a ruthless person.

Unfortunately, there is no if.

All of Liancheng’s gains now belong to Zhou Qing and his team, a huge profit.

"Aunt Mo, what is the status of a person of this realm in the Tianmu Sect?"

"Both have cultivated to the third realm. They are in their twenties, so they can be considered ordinary disciples with some status."

"Is this just an ordinary disciple?" Zhou Qing was surprised.

"An ordinary disciple doesn't mean he is weak, it just refers to his talent." Lu Qingmo shook his head.

"Having both soul and spirit martial arts talent doesn't mean you're a genius."

"Do you believe it or not, he doesn't have a good talent?"

Lu Qingmo said: "Their cultivation methods are different from those of ordinary people. Most of them are quick methods and are full of hidden dangers."

"The Tianmu Sect cultivates such people, just like raising a Gu. If they can successfully fight their way out and reach the Bone Refining Stage, they will have the opportunity to switch to a new cultivation method and be reused."

"As for the celestial maiden, she practices the all-powerful magic skills that directly target the devil god. It is impossible for her to practice such an inferior skill."

"But if you meet someone like this in the future, don't underestimate him. Anyone who can survive the bloody training of the Tianmu Cult and make it to the end is not an ordinary person."

Zhou Qing understood that these were all poisonous insects.

"Evil magic skills can make rapid progress when practiced, but they are also extremely cruel, and most of them will overdraw your potential." Lu Qingmo said solemnly:

"If you meet me in the future, don't practice cultivation and don't ruin your future."

"Don't worry, Aunt Mo." Zhou Qing nodded.

"These evil skills don't seem to be as fast as my normal practice. Why should I practice them?"

Lu Qingmo was silent.

You know what, this actually makes sense.

No evil skill is as evil as the one you displayed.

Some interesting ideas suddenly appeared in Lu Qingmo's mind.

When other people practice evil skills, it speeds up, but if Zhou Qing practices it, it will probably slow down.

If the skills are evil, it is worse than evil people.

"Since you don't plan to go to Black Mountain, then just practice quietly for a while." Lu Qingmo said:

"The way of cultivation requires a balance between tension and relaxation."

"Don't be too tense."

Zhou Qingshen nodded in agreement, "I'll come over in the evening and rest peacefully."

How to relieve worries?

Only Aunt Mo can give me a little warmth.

“…”

After dealing with Liancheng's affairs, Zhou Qing returned to the martial arts hall, only to find that everyone was gathered together, in high spirits.

"What good thing happened?" Zhou Qing asked.

Zhang Yuantao smiled and said, "Changan has made a breakthrough and is now at the Great Perfection of the Muscle and Veins Realm."

With profound accumulation and the refinement of precious treasures, it finally took this step recently.

"Congratulations, Fourth Brother." Zhou Qing hurriedly congratulated him.

Su Changan smiled and said, "It's all thanks to you, Junior Brother."

"If I don't break through, I'm afraid you will be one step ahead of me, Junior Brother."

Everyone remembers the time when Zhou Qing made a breakthrough last time. Having such a junior brother is really too much pressure.

Shen Yu had no choice but to accept the fact that she had been defeated by Zhou Qingchao, but they could still struggle.

At least postpone it for a few days.

Zhou Qing waved his hands and said, "Don't blow, don't blow."

"Master is not here?"

"Someone from the Yun family came to invite my father over." Bai Ruoyue replied:

"She said she had something important to discuss with her father."

The Yun Family...

In the evening, after the Refining Moon ended, Zhou Qing found Lu Qingmo taking a walk in the peach forest.

"Aunt Mo, I want to ask you something."

"What is it?"

"Has the case of the Tianmu Cult stronghold in Qinghua County been completely resolved?"

Zhou Qing really couldn't bear it anymore. Originally, this matter had nothing to do with him, but he still had a treasure stuck here.

When he came back from the county town for the second time, the settlement bonus of the Punishment Order was stuck at 99%. He thought it might be because those city officials had not been punished yet, so it was not settled.

He only needs that last bit of bonus to get the perfect reward, and Zhou Qing really doesn’t want to miss it.

But he waited and waited, and so much time had passed, and the one percent bonus had not yet increased.

What's going on? Is it so difficult to examine several people?

Lu Qingmo glanced at Zhou Qing, "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

"Well, I met people from Tianmu Sect again, and I just remembered it." Zhou Qing found an excuse.

"I'm also in contact with Mr. Ye." Lu Qingmo said:

"The matter in Qinghua County has basically been resolved, but there are some problems in other counties."

"Remember."

Zhou Qing nodded. This was all a follow-up to the Qinghua County case.

"There was a problem at this stage." Lu Qingmo shook his head.

"Some traces of Tianmu Sect have also been found in other counties."

Zhou Qing was stunned. "Are there Tianmu Sect bases in other counties?"

"We haven't discovered any new strongholds, but there are traces and clues that show that the Tianmu Cult has been active in those places."

"The county is investigating this matter with all its might, and the investigation of the Qinghua County governors has also changed its approach."

"Send them to various counties to assist in work, and while they are doing their duty, monitor them as they move."

Zhou Qing felt a little numb, so he changed the review method, which means that the review is not over yet.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

I really want to complain about your efficiency!

"How long will it take for this matter to be completely over?"

"It should be soon." Lu Qingmo replied:

"Many people who had connections with the Tianmu Cult have been arrested. The only county left is the last one to be dealt with. I heard that it is more difficult to deal with."

"where?"

"Yinhua County."

"It feels like these local counties are like sieves that can be infiltrated at will." Zhou Qing complained.

Lu Qingmo sighed slightly, "There are endless magical Taoist martial arts in the world, and countless evil people. Such things are inevitable."

"Also, the Great Qi State has been established for four hundred years..."

Zhou Qing was silent for a moment, then understood what Lu Qingmo meant.

Four hundred years is an extremely long time for a dynasty. If it were a normal mortal dynasty, it would be extremely difficult to break through this time.

The rising sun is always full of vigor, but as time goes by, it becomes more decrepit and more problems arise.

Time decays everything and turns good into bad.

How much of the scene and ambition of the ancient Qi Dynasty remains four hundred years later?

I'm afraid they have all been lost in power.

After returning to the attic, Lu Qingmo began to teach Zhou Qing Taoism.

A majestic handprint, a fleeting shadow over a thousand miles...

Although Lu Qingmo doesn't know how to do it, she is at a higher level after all. She has studied in Xuandu Temple and can give Zhou Qing guidance.

During this process, Zhou Qing would also take the opportunity to casually mention some of the Taoist techniques he had learned from the Great Thousand Immortal Tree and ask Lu Qingmo about them.

"Aunt Mo, how do we cultivate this Haoran Qi?" Zhou Qing was curious.

The Haoran Great Seal is a superior day-to-day Taoist technique, but if it is blessed by the Haoran Qi, its power can be increased dramatically and it can possess all kinds of magical abilities.

"There are two clear ways to achieve it." Lu Qingmo replied:

"One is to go to Dongzhou and join the Academy of All Saints."

"The second is...read more."

"But there are very few people who can comprehend the great spirit through extensive reading."

"It is rumored that there are also natural saints and reincarnations of saints, who are born with great energy, but they are just legends after all."

Zhou Qing stayed in Taolin again tonight. It was too dangerous for him to go home. It would be terrible if some pervert was secretly spying on him and trying to find out his secrets.

It’s better here at Aunt Mo’s place, no outsiders can peek in.

Zhou Qing has decided that as long as Heiyun Town is not at peace, he will not go home and will treat this place as his home.

This is purely Zhou Qing's consideration for his own safety, there is no other meaning, so don't think too much about it.

Three days later.

Lu Qingmo brought Zhou Qing bad news.

"There's a problem in Yinhua County."

"The Dingwu Division there was in collusion with the Tianmu Cult, but they didn't catch him and let him get away."

"Then why don't we just go and catch him back?" Zhou Qing was puzzled. What kind of question was this?

"We can't find him." Lu Qingmo shook his head. "That traitor has a secret treasure that allows him to change his appearance at will. It's easier for him to move his Qi and it's difficult to lock him down."

"We are currently searching within Yinhua County, but I'm afraid it will take some time, and there's even a chance that he will escape."

"The Qinghua County officials are involved in this matter again."

“…”

You guys with the surname Zhao are really awesome.

An hour later, Zhou Qing rode out of the black cloud.

It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others.

He wanted to see how difficult it was to get this last 1% bonus!

A secret treasure with a new look, right? Go talk to God!

Zhou Qing decided to go and see the situation in Yinhua County in person. He would be harassed if he stayed in Heiyun Town anyway, so he might as well go out for a walk.

After he suggested going to take a look himself, Lu Qingmo thought about it and agreed.

If his ghost parade can achieve great success, it will be beneficial to both him and her.

For the sake of his and Aunt Mo's wonderful future life, let's go for it! As a ghost god patrolling, his heart of sharing the worries of Da Qi is truly something that can be witnessed by the heavens and the earth, and by the sun and the moon.

Yinhua County is quite far away from Heiyun Town. Even when the BMW with wild beast bloodline arrived, it was already dark.

Compared with Qinghua, this county is more prosperous. Zhou Qing led his horse into the city and headed straight for the Ghost and God Department.

The situation this time is different from last time. He doesn't need to keep a low profile and go undercover on the enemy side.

Zhou Qing, wearing the ghost and god patrol uniform and holding the patrol token, entered the Yinhua Ghost and God Division unimpeded and met the person in charge inside.

A middle-aged man who looks thin and elegant.

"Deputy Chief Yuan." Zhou Qing bowed.

The deputy chief of the county's Ghost and God Affairs Department, Yuan Yihan, who was also a member of the Yuan family in the county town, was in charge of the investigation of the Tianmu Sect in various counties.

In the ghost and god offices in various places, except for the chief governor who comes from above, the deputy chief governors are mostly local strong men.

It is both the court's care for the local area and a compromise.

The Yuan family, a county overlord, has extensive power and has people in every department of the government.

"I have heard of Zhou Xunyou's name for a long time. Seeing him today, I can see that he is truly an outstanding person."

Yuan Yihan smiled slightly, with a kind attitude, "Fang'er has mentioned Zhou Xunyou more than once, he is so charming."

"I'm far inferior to Brother Yuan Fang." Zhou Qing smiled.

Yuan Yihan is in charge of this matter, and is one of the reasons why Zhou Qing came here. This person is Yuan Fang's second uncle and has a very good relationship with Yuan Fang.

Zhou Qing and Lu Qingmo knew this in advance.

If the Huang family is in charge here, he must be crazy to come here.

After a brief greeting, Zhou Qing got down to business. Yuan Yihan carefully introduced the whole story to Zhou Qing.

Over the past month, the county's work of investigating various counties has actually been going quite smoothly.

The gap between the strength of each county and the county town is too big, and those who have colluded with the Tianmu Sect find it difficult to resist the power of the county town.

Although Yinhua County was a bit difficult to investigate due to problems with the Dingwu Division and many obstacles arose, it was still investigated one by one.

Until Zhu Zhangting, the chief steward of Yinhua Dingwu Division, took several people to deal with the matter, including the chief steward of Qinghua, on the pretext of finding a clue.

Then……

Then came the news that Zhu Zhangting had rebelled and was plotting to murder everyone.

When Yuan Yihan and his companions arrived, Qinghua was the only one left alive among those who were taken away by Zhu Zhangting.

The other dead people were all monks. They could not withstand Zhu Zhangting's sudden attack and died instantly.

When something like this happened, the chief of Dingwu Division in Qinghua County seemed to be a victim, but he was also a suspect no matter how you looked at it.

We are both in the internal organs realm. It’s bad enough that you can’t beat your opponent, but can’t you even delay him?

The Qinghua steward explained that the opponent's strength was extremely powerful, not like the ordinary internal organs, and he could hardly resist.

But obviously, such an explanation is not enough to clear him of suspicion.

After that, people in the county town had been looking for Zhu Zhangting, but to no avail.

Qinghua is in charge and has been under constant surveillance.

If nothing unexpected had happened, he would have died and would have had to eat fried fish with rice for the rest of his life.
