Chapter 534: Red Carp and Golden Rooster, the Wronged God
The mountain is by the water, hidden in the cold smoke.
The Immortal Jin Ting stepped into the cold smoke, walked on the water of Qin Creek, and headed towards Qingaotai.
He did not hide his magical powers at all, and was immediately spotted by the monster in the water.
The originally calm Qin Creek suddenly began to ripple in irregular circles, and a huge black shadow suddenly emerged from the blue water, rising continuously.
The Immortal Jin Ting stopped and looked down at Qinxi, and suddenly saw a huge mouth of the abyss opened under the water, jumped out and swallowed him.
The water monster swallowed the Great Immortal Jin Ting in one gulp, and drew an arc in the cold smoke. Its fine red scales shone with light, like a ball of fish-shaped flame.
He dived into the water again, but there was no splashing, instead it was silent, as if he was already part of the water of Qin Creek.
It's a red carp.
The red carp was swimming in the water and was about to dive deeper underwater, but it suddenly broke into pieces while swinging its tail.
It was like shattering the sun reflected in the water, turning it into ripples of fire.
A water dragon condensed into shape, lifted up the Great Immortal Jin Ting, and sent him to the bottom of the Qin Gao platform.
The Immortal Jin Ting walked towards Qin Gaotai without looking back, and the flaming water waves dissipated completely.
This is certainly not a real water monster, but just a magical power, hiding in the water. In addition, Shui Xinshen's ability is really low, and he is only at the seventh level of Taoism, so he really didn't notice any clues.
But swallowing the Immortal Jin Ting into your stomach would mean you have a really big appetite.
The last one who wanted to swallow him was the black dragon of Cai Leiguan. Now it has coiled on the gatepost of Shenjing Palace and is at his disposal.
The Immortal Jin Ting walked along the mountain path towards the Qingao Terrace. The trees were lush and green, and it was very quiet, not yet affected by the autumn.
On the high platform of the Qin, many words were carved into the rock wall. Under the erosion of sun and moon, they have become blurred and their original appearance cannot be seen.
He walked very fast, like a ghost, heading straight towards Qingao Temple.
Before reaching the Qingao Temple, I suddenly heard a rooster crowing, and in just a moment, it seemed as if I saw the sun flying towards me.
A huge golden rooster flew from the sky, its feathers like golden leaves, reflecting the sunlight, and pounced towards the Jinting Immortal.
“There are some tricks.”
The Immortal Jin Ting looked at the golden rooster, raised his hands, gathered the wind in his sleeves, and gently waved them. Two crescent-shaped sword lights flew out from his sleeves and headed straight for the golden rooster.
"oh--"
The golden rooster crowed loudly and clearly, and opened its mouth to spit out a stream of red-gold flame, which sprayed towards the two sword lights.
There was a loud bang in the air, flames splashed, and frost flowers flew everywhere.
The Immortal Jin Ting tilted his head slightly, and a flame passed by the side of his face, illuminating his eyes, without any ripples.
The golden rooster flapped its wings again and pecked at the Immortal Jin Ting. It was like a golden crow falling from the sky, or the scorching sun, restraining all evil spirits.
The Great Immortal Jin Ting showed a moon-phase instrument in his hand. The bright moon mirror shone on the golden rooster, and then a crystal rainbow flew over and fixed the golden rooster in the void.
The Immortal Jin Ting blew a breath, and the cold wind whistled. The Taiyin Soul-Slaying Sword was hidden in the wind and chopped the golden rooster into pieces, but there was no flying of feathers. Instead, it turned into flames and flew away.
This is still not a living thing, but a Taoist method.
The Immortal Jin Ting continued forward, and this time, there was no one to stop him. He saw an octogenarian standing in front of the Qin Gao Temple, holding a zither, and said, "The evil guest has arrived."
Jin Ting Daxian said: "Indeed, he is an evil guest."
He stood in front of the old man, the contrast between the old and the young was stark.
The old man sighed and said, "I have guarded the Qin Gao Noodle for over three hundred years, my master guarded the Qin Gao Temple for over five hundred years, and my great-grandmaster guarded the Qin Gao for over six hundred years. Each generation is inferior to the previous one. I am truly ashamed."
The Immortal Jin Ting was not in a hurry to take action. Instead, he said, "Qin Gao controls the carp and ascends to heaven, not lingering in the rivers and lakes. Why do you have to stubbornly defend a temple and fight me to the death?"
The Immortal Jin Ting looked towards the Qingao Temple, where a young man was lying in ambush.
The old man looked worried, realizing that the Immortal Jin Ting had already noticed the ambush in the temple, so he called out, "Come out, disciple."
"When it came to him, he couldn't hold on for even a moment."
The young disciple walked out of the temple holding a jade bottle, with no fear in his eyes, only calmness.
The old man looked at the Immortal Jin Ting and said, "Although you are a demon, you are also practicing the immortal way. Why are you trying to make things difficult for our little temple?"
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "It's not that I want to be hard on you. One of you is old, half your leg is already in the coffin, and the other is young, and hasn't grown at all. I don't want to bully you, but I am following orders and have no choice but to do it."
Before the old man could say anything, the disciple holding the jade bottle was already jumping up and down in anger, saying, "What are you talking about! Who hasn't grown taller?"
The old man asked, "On whose orders?"
The Immortal Jin Ting said, "The Five Gods of Gusu are five fourth-grade gods with great magical powers. They command 100,000 generals, and our lineage is spread throughout Jiangnan."
"Don't even think about whether you, one old and one young, can defeat me. Even if you drive me away, there will be stronger ones looking for you."
The old man was speechless.
Jin Ting Daxian advised: "As long as the person is alive, the Taoism still exists. When the person is gone, there is nothing left."
The old man sighed and said, "That's all."
He plucked the strings of the zither in his arms, and the sound lingered like a gushing spring. From the spring, a phantom giant carp flew out, swept up the indignant disciple, and carried the old man away into the mountains.
All I could hear was the endless sound of the piano, a sad and helpless melody.
There was no one left in the Qingao Temple.
The Immortal Jin Ting entered the Qingao Temple and offered three incense sticks to the statue of Qingao, saying, "The situation is difficult, and I am sorry to trouble you, the deity."
The green smoke curled up and dissipated in the Qingao Temple.
There is no real god of Qingao in the statue. The incense of Qingao Temple depends entirely on the old man and his family. Without them, Qingao Temple will probably be abandoned soon.
The Immortal Jin Ting left the Qingao Temple and the temple door closed behind him.
After forcing the practitioners from Qingaotai away, the rest of the work was left to the God of Cang.
As for whether they can successfully establish a temple in Jing County and achieve the great achievement of changing customs and habits, that is not the business of Jinting Daxian.
The occupation of Qingaotai was the credit of the Great Immortal Jinting. If it was not done well, it was the incompetence of his subordinates. As for what his subordinates think, the Great Immortal Jinting does not care.
The Immortal Jin Ting returned to Xuanzhou City, and not long after, a new City God took office.
The new City God had obviously been in the works for a long time. He arrived in a rush, with all the necessary configurations, including left and right judges, soul-collecting ghosts, and wandering gods day and night.
When they arrived in Xuanzhou City, the county officials immediately cooperated in rebuilding the City God Temple, and the whole city was filled with joy.
Compared to the rampant gods who used all sorts of tricks to build temples and resorted to deception and fraud, it was too easy for the City God to take office and build a new official residence.
As an official deity, he is never short of incense. He governs yin and yang and holds immense power.
The Great Immortal Jinting presided over the Wutong Temple, and the Five Devils in the temple were extremely unbalanced. This was not enough, as they also had to pay homage to the City God, submitting to him and swallowing their anger to avoid conflict.
Jinting Daxian will eventually leave, but Wutong Temple still has to make a living under the City God Temple.
