Chapter 60
Chi Bai was not lying when he said that he chose football as his elective course.
When Si Liu kicked the Tiantong football to Chi Bai's face, he reacted extremely quickly. He supported himself on the ground with both hands, raised his foot with the help of his waist strength, and kicked the ball directly out of the goal.
Si Liu: “?”
If you say Chi Bai is a good football player, then he is indeed quite good. After all, the living room is so big that only the door frame looks like a goal, and he actually kicked the ball into the goal. But if you say he is not a good player... who the hell kicked someone out? Isn't this clearly telling Tiantong "Run"?
Although Tiantong's head was fuzzy from rolling and flying around, and he felt as if his brain was about to be shattered, he felt a cool breeze and fresh air when he flew out of the door. The wind seemed to wake him up, and a strong surprise burst out in his eyes.
He flew into the yard, hit the wall, and stopped suddenly with a bang. Then, enduring the pain all over his body, he hurriedly got up from the ground, turned around and ran away without looking back.
After running two steps, I realized that I was really hit stupidly. There was a better way to escape, so why should I be so stupid like an ordinary person?
He took out a replacement talisman from his arms, chanted a spell, and his figure immediately turned into a phantom.
"He's going to run away."
Chi Bai, who twisted his waist, walked to the door with a grin on his face with the support of Rong Jing, holding onto the door panel and said to the zombie and the ghost behind him.
Si Liu looked at him with disdain and said, "It's shameful that a young man has such a fragile waist at such a young age." Then he crossed his arms leisurely and said lazily, "Let him run. It's a good opportunity to see if Rong Jing's talisman array is effective."
Rong Jing whispered, "It will definitely work."
His talisman formation was able to trap the junior brother from Xuantian Temple before.
Sure enough, at the same moment when the phantom completely disappeared, an extremely tragic scream came from the northeast behind the villa.
The three people who heard the noise looked at each other. Chi Bai raised his hand and shouted, "Little Mirror, help me take a look."
Rong Jing: “?”
Xiao Jingzi raised his hand and poked him in the lower back.
“Ouch!”
A cry of pain that was no less intense than Tiantong's scream came out of Chi Bai's mouth. The deputy minister who had just said "my waist was twisted and I can't walk" jumped three feet high at this moment.
Seeing this, Si Liu nodded and said, "You are quite talented in high jump, not bad."
After landing, Chi Bai, with a pale face and wailing, held his waist and shed tears silently.
pain.
It hurts so much.
Especially when I jumped down, I seemed to have accidentally twisted my foot.
Rong Jing saw that he looked exhausted and patted his shoulder in a friendly manner: "Alright, Your Majesty, please find a place to sit down. Leave the rest of the matter to me and Senior Si."
After saying this, Rong Jing and Si Liu quickly headed northeast, ignoring Chi Bai's sighing face. As they passed the house, they saw Tian Tong slumped on the ground. His hair, which was already quite a few, had been singed clean by the golden light, and his yellow robe was still covered in wisps of golden flames that flashed in the sunlight.
"Tsk, that's pathetic." Si Liu circled around him twice, looking him up and down. "You were already ugly, and now without your hair you look like a boiled egg. But your head is the roundest I've ever seen."
Tiantong, who was already dizzy with rage because he couldn't escape, became even more furious when he heard the description of "braised egg".
Unfortunately, the strange talisman array burned him so much that his whole body was shaking unconsciously, leaving him with no ability to fight back against Si Liu's words.
No one knew how the talisman array was created, but the golden light brushed past his skin, as if it could penetrate into his flesh and bones and ignite his blood, causing him to still feel a burning pain in his body at this moment.
At this point, Tiantong also realized that he probably had no chance of escape now.
He stared at the young man standing next to Si Liu. He had such a childish face that looked easy to bully, but he didn't expect that he had such a powerful helper by his side, and his talisman formation was shocking.
No wonder Qiu Qian and Han Yu both fell at his hands.
Tian Tong gritted his teeth, still unwilling to give up. He endured the pain in his body and stood up from the ground. He held his chest with one hand and placed the other on the wall. However, as soon as his fingers touched the wall, he felt a sharp pain. He could only forcibly withdraw his hand, standing hunched over, restraining the hatred and anger in his eyes. He lowered his voice and said to the two people in front of him, "Spare my life."
Rong Jing and Si Liu exchanged a glance, the latter quite surprised: "Spare your life? If I'm not mistaken, you came all the way from Gaoyun to Yancheng specifically to kill our little Jingzi. Even though you didn't succeed, we wouldn't leave ourselves in harm's way, would we? We're not stupid."
Tiantong knew that what Si Liu said made sense.
He thought of the news he had received, his eyes flickered, and he struggled to say, "I heard that Han Yu is still hunting down the last survivor of Liuyun Temple. I can help you kill Han Yu."
Sounds tempting.
After all, they are both Taoist priests from Taozi Temple and they are competitors. Tiantong should know very well what is the most correct and convenient way to deal with Han Yu.
only--
Rong Jing picked up the phone and waved it in front of Tian Tong twice, then told Tian Tong the bad news with regret: "You are no longer needed. Han Yu is dead."
What?
Tian Tong's face was filled with obvious astonishment. He asked uncertainly, "How is that possible?!"
Although Tiantong was not very willing to admit it, the fact was that Han Yu was stronger than him, and Han Yu was insidious and cunning, smarter than others. How could he die like that?
Tiantong narrowed his eyes: "Are you lying to me?"
Rong Jing blinked: "Here, let me show you."
He handed the phone directly to Tiantong. On the phone was a ten-second video that Aqiu had secretly recorded. It was the scene of Han Yu being forced to self-immolate. Seeing Han Yu's hysterical and painful appearance as he struggled in the flames, Tiantong was shocked and broke out in a cold sweat.
The color of the whole face also became much whiter.
Rong Jing looked at his panic-stricken appearance and smiled: "Don't be afraid, how about this, I can spare your life——"
Before he could finish his words, Tiantong suddenly looked at him.
Rong Jing stared into his eyes and showed an innocent and lovely smile: "It depends on whether you think you have any important information that is comparable to your life."
Important news?
Tian Tong seemed to understand something, and suddenly asked, "You want me to betray Xuantian Temple?"
"Taozi Temple." Rong Jing's smile suddenly disappeared, her pretty face tensed, staring at him expressionlessly, "You are nothing but a worthless Xuantian Temple. Please tell me that I want you to betray Taozi Temple."
Tiantong: “…”
Tiantong had never seen such a request before, but he was not stupid. Recalling Rong Jing's expression change and his concern for the three words "Xuantian Temple", he felt as if he understood something.
But before he could ask, Rong Jing spoke again: "Of course you can choose not to betray me. I won't force you anyway."
Si Liu added faintly, "But I will kill you."
Tiantong: “…”
Okay, Tiantong finally understood.
These two people, one is a good guy who gives candy, and the other is a bad guy who hits people with a hammer.
He gritted his teeth inwardly, but now he had no other choice but to bite the bullet and think about what "important information" he could get that would save his life. As long as he could get out safely today, he would choose a secluded place to practice well, and then he would come back and kill Rong Jing.
It’s just... his status in Xuantian... Oh no, Taoziguan is not very high, and most of the news was just learned by him by accident.
After about five minutes, as Si Liu's expression grew increasingly impatient, Tian Tong finally spoke: "Han Yu wanted to exterminate the entire Liuyun Temple because one of the Five Masters had a grudge against the temple."
Rong Jing: "Qiu mentioned this before."
Tiantong was slightly stunned.
But soon, my whole body tensed up again.
Si Liu's hand had rested on his shoulder at some point, and the cold breath of the evil spirit touched his skin, causing his whole body to tremble.
But Si Liu seemed unaware and just urged, "Change it."
Tian Tong gritted his teeth and said again: "Han Yu has a master. I heard some time ago that he infiltrated the Huaqing Sect."
Huaqing Gate?
When Rong Jing heard these three words, his expression changed slightly, but he quickly returned to normal and started talking nonsense: "I know this too."
Si Liu: “……?”
The zombie and the ghost looked at each other, and Si Liu suddenly realized something. Then his cold fingers moved closer to Tiantong's throat. When his fingertips touched the protruding larynx, Tiantong couldn't help but shiver all over.
Si Liu was very satisfied with Tian Tong's reaction: "Can you tell me something that neither of us knows?"
Tian Tong felt extremely aggrieved when he heard this.
Of course he knew that he had to say something that Rong Jing and Si Liu didn't know, but how did he know what they knew and what they didn't know?
He could only try them one by one.
But as he tried more and more, Tiantong naturally began to feel suspicious.
Wait a minute, could these two be using this method to trick them into giving away information about Tao Zi Guan?
Thinking of this, Tiantong's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly said: "Master Ben Qi, one of the Five Masters, has a disciple who is a member of the Tianshi Alliance."
Are there people from Taoziguan in the Tianshi Alliance?
During the brief half-hour conversation with Tiantong, Rong Jing learned a great deal, and he increasingly felt that Taoziguan was like a cancer. If it wasn't quickly eradicated, it might spread like a virus, implicating more and more innocent people. However, they had become a behemoth, and eliminating them would be no easy task.
While Rong Jing was stroking his chin and thinking, Si Liu said, "I know that too."
Tiantong: “…”
He flew into a rage: "You know what? This is just bullshit!"
Si Liu: “……?”
After being stunned for a moment, Si Liu also flew into a rage: "You're about to die and you still dare to talk nonsense to me?!"
Tian Tong: "If I don't talk nonsense, how do I know you are just kidding me!"
Tian Tong's eyes turned red with anger. He stared at Si Liu and Rong Jing with a look that made him want to eat their flesh and blood. He sneered at the two of them and said, "Don't even think about prying any information out of me from now on."
"Then go to hell."
Si Liu rolled his eyes, and under Tian Tong's incredulous gaze, he unhesitatingly tightened his grip on his throat. Instantly, there was a snap, and Tian Tong's larynx broke. His eyes widened, and he gradually lost his breath.
Finally, the neck could no longer support the head, and as Si Liu's fingers loosened, the head fell down with a thud.
Rong Jing: "...just kill him?"
Si Liu said confidently: "When a person dies, doesn't he still have a soul?"
Then he flew out a few hundred meters and signaled Rong Jing to take out the black gold banner and collect the ghost that had left Tiantong's body and was still a little dazed and had not yet recovered.
After Rong Jing finished all this, Si Liu flew back and said, "If there's anything else you want to know, I'll ask for you then. I'm better at dealing with ghosts."
Rong Jing knew that what he said made sense, so he didn't argue with him.
Si Liu floated beside him and urged, "You can go home now. The drama I'm following is about to start airing."
…
Rong Jing, Chi Bai and A Qiu agreed to meet at a special department in Yancheng.
When Rong Jing supported Chi Bai into the special department office, Ah Qiu was arrogantly putting his legs on the table, eating skewers and watching the TV series Si Liu was following. He caught a glimpse of Chi Bai's appearance from the corner of his eye and was quite shocked: "Are you still injured?"
Chi Bai didn't want to answer him, so he decisively changed the subject: "Where's Xue Cang? Why haven't I seen him?"
When Xue Cang was mentioned, Ah Qiu's expression was no longer as relaxed as before. He threw the skewers back onto the plate on the table and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, "He went to the cemetery where Liuyun was watching people."
After the Liuyun Temple was destroyed, no bodies were left behind, so Xue Cang could only build a cenotaph for his master, uncle, and fellow apprentices. Later, Xie Changshi helped by having tombstones carved for the Liuyun Temple members in the eastern suburbs of Yancheng.
As soon as Xue Cang left Tianditong, he went to the East Suburb Cemetery.
Chi Bai said "oh", then looked at Aqiu: "I have some news to tell you."
"What?"
"Tiantong said that people from your Huaqing Sect have infiltrated Taozi Temple."
"......?" Qiu pulled his legs off the table. His brows knitted together as he asked in disbelief, "Are you sure?"
"That's what Tiantong said, and given the situation back then, it's probably true." Chi Bai was also shocked when he first heard this news from Rong Jing. The Huaqing Sect, where Ah Qiu belonged, was considered one of the best in the country, with strict regulations. If such a large sect had infiltrated by people from Taoziguan, wouldn't other sects have been infiltrated by them long ago?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but urge Aqiu: "Contact your brother first to ask about the situation."
Then he looked at Rong Jing and said, "Although Tiantong's statement that 'Master Benqi, one of the Five Masters, has a disciple who is now a member of the Tianshi Alliance' may be false, I think this matter should be notified to the Tianshi Alliance. Perhaps they should also conduct a thorough investigation into the situation within the alliance."
Rong Jing's understanding of the Heavenly Master Alliance was no better than Chi Bai and the others, so he didn't have any suggestions. He just nodded and said, "You decide."
Then he looked at the time and said, "Xie Changshi is here to pick me up. I'll leave first."
"Okay, contact me anytime if you need anything."
After sending Rong Jing away, Chi Bai looked down at the paper in his hand.
The paper recorded various information that Rong Jing and Si Liu pried out from Tian Tong. In addition to the true news about Huaqing Sect and the false news about the Tianshi Alliance, it also recorded the whereabouts of two of the Five Masters who turned against each other and several other companions of the special department where the Third Master used to be who were turned into evil spirits.
The so-called Five Masters are the five most powerful individuals in Taozi Monastery, aside from the ancestor and the abbot. It's said that Sanye's companions were personally transformed into fierce ghosts by the abbot, who then distributed them to the Five Masters. However, as the Five Masters grew in power over the years, they became less satisfied with the abilities of these fierce ghosts. Therefore, they gave the five fierce ghosts to their disciples as rewards.
"What are you thinking about?" Ah Qiu, who had just returned from contacting someone, saw Chi Bai writing something on a piece of paper with a frown on his face. He lowered his head and saw the name 'Xiang Yuan'. It sounded very familiar to him. He frowned and thought carefully, then asked uncertainly, "Isn't this the Third Master's companion from the Special Department back then?"
Chi Bai came back to his senses, looking a little surprised: "How did you know?"
A Qiu: "...As the deputy director of our Yancheng Special Department, haven't you ever seen the Special Department's log? It contains the list of each term's Special Department personnel."
Chi Bai: “…I’m too lazy to read.”
Qiu rolled his eyes.
Chi Bai pulled him to sit down and told him about Xiang Yuan and the others' situation. When he mentioned that he wanted to retrieve the five evil spirits and try to reawaken them, Ah Qiu pursed his lips and said after a while, "There is a way. Han Yu's evil spirit has now regained consciousness. However... I don't think it's necessarily a good thing to let them regain consciousness."
"Huh?" Chi Bai was slightly stunned.
"They were murdered, and after death, they were transformed into evil spirits to commit evil deeds. I believe that everyone's hands are stained with blood. Chi Bai, if it were you, could you accept yourself like this? You clearly exist to better protect others, but in the end you became an executioner, even if it was not your own will."
"It's a cruel thing to make them regain consciousness and realize what they have done."
Chi Bai lowered his eyes after hearing Ah Qiu's words, and the arrogant aura on his body gradually subsided. After a while, he sighed and nodded: "You are right."
only--
"No matter what, we still have to find them back."
Otherwise, they will inevitably kill more people.
"What is this?" Aqiu changed the subject and pointed to a booklet on the table next to him.
Chi Bai turned his head to take a look and said, "Rong Jing's Death Note."
"ah?"
"The list of Taoziguan disciples pried out from Tiantong's mouth."
“…It’s quite vivid.”
…
Around nine o'clock in the morning on the 16th.
It was exactly the time for workers to go to work, but at this moment, the workers had no intention of going to work at all. Almost everyone's eyes were focused on the Weibo page on their mobile phones.
Half an hour ago, a topic related to actor Xiao Sheng appeared at the bottom of Weibo's hot search list without any warning, and it jumped from the last to the first place at a speed faster than checking in.
This topic is #Xiao Sheng reveals that he forced Pan Pan to death#
When I clicked on the topic, it was still the familiar marketing account Zhang Xiaogou.
Zhang Xiaogou: Family, big news, guaranteed to be true and cooked. After the double-Award-winning actor was teased at the roadshow and his resources were divided up, there is new news - yes, it's the news about Pan Pan. Pan Pan didn't commit suicide, he was forced to death by the actor → Fans of the actor, don't rush to scold me, someone saw the actor at the Yancheng police station, and it is said that a police report will be issued today. Fans of the actor, remember to wait a little, to avoid being slapped in the face / cute
[Hold the grass?]
[What a crazy person, I don’t believe it.]
[I'm waiting. If I can't wait, I'll force you to death/狗头]
[Don't wait, check out other marketing accounts, it's so exciting! Click here for the portal.]
Song Zhiye, who was pulled out of bed by his agent, had two dark circles under his eyes. He looked at his agent with a gloomy look and let out a sigh: "What are you doing so early?"
"Are you sleepy?"
"Do you think I look sleepy?" Song Zhiye lifted the quilt and was about to lie down when he heard his agent's voice like a news broadcast ringing in his ears, "Xiao Sheng revealed in the roadshow lounge that he had an affair with Pan Pan while he was dating Song Zhiye."
rub.
Song Zhiye, who was supposed to lie down, stood up directly, and his eyes, which were originally full of sleepiness, were now bright again.
The agent glanced at him and asked, "Not sleepy anymore?"
Song Zhiye groaned, "Why am I so sleepy? I'm so exhausted."
Then his eyes sparkled and he asked impatiently, "What's going on?"
"Here, take a look for yourself." The agent handed the phone to Song Zhiye, and the page on the phone was a small account with no authentication information that was reached through the portal. Although there was no authentication information and there was only this one Weibo post, the content of the Weibo post was enough to shock the entire entertainment industry.
The content of the Weibo post is a video.
When Song Zhiye opened the video, he saw Xiao Sheng standing face to face with his agent with a sullen face. Judging from the clothes Xiao Sheng was wearing, it was obviously the day he was doing a roadshow at Hengya Cinema.
A second later, the agent's voice rang out clearly: "Song Zhiye knows everything about your affair with Pan Pan. If he hadn't had evidence, he would have exposed you long ago."
Then the video abruptly stopped and fell into darkness.
Song Zhiye thought the video was too short. He watched it seven or eight times before clicking exit, still unsatisfied. He commented, "Are these two mentally handicapped? How dare they say such things in the lounge outside?"
Especially since it was a cinema owned by Xie’s group, it would be easy for Rong Jing to get the video.
The agent felt that he could understand Xiao Sheng and the others' mentality: "They have been unscrupulous for too long and don't know how to cover up. He even dared to kill people, but he just said a few truths in public. So what? As long as the master behind him is still willing to help him, he can clear everything for him."
That’s true.
Song Zhiye sighed: "This really has become a cyber criminal record."
Agent: "...Who made you blind to fall for him?"
Song Zhiye touched his nose guiltily, returned the phone to his agent, and picked up his own phone, only to find a message left by Rong Jing on it.
After watching for two seconds, his eyes suddenly widened: "Holy crap? Xiao Sheng is such a jerk! Not only did he cheat on me, but he also shamelessly changed my fate? So I should have been the one to get famous?! Shit!!"
The agent covered his painful ears and leaned over to take a look. He also heard a sharp explosion and roared, "You damn scum! I said my judgment was fine, but it turns out it was this Dogecoin that caused me to lose three million on the bet!!"
Then he picked up Song Zhiye and said, "Stop eating melons and go to work now to earn back my three million."
Song Zhiye: “…”
