Astral Apostle Chapter 182: Accident and escape
Just as the Patriarch of the Zhang family was pondering, a man in white pushed the door and walked in. He was dressed in a scholar's uniform, with a sparse beard under his chin, and a faint smile on his face.
"I just happened to pass by the door, and I heard something about it. I wonder if you two are interested in hearing what I have to say?"
Seeing this person, the head of the Zhang family was overjoyed, invited the white-clothed scribe to sit down, cupped his hands and said, "I don't know what Mr. Fan taught me?"
This white-clothed scribe is called Fan Ji, and after failing many times, he travels out to relax. He is currently living temporarily in the Zhang family and is one of the disciples supported by the Zhang family.
Fan Ji twitched his beard, and said with a smile: "This matter is not complicated, and it will be clear after a little combing. That Lingfengzi took advantage of the Ye family's power, with a gesture of provoking a teacher to ask a crime. This female Taoist has something to do with her, so she got into trouble and was framed. We have two things to do now. One is to clean up our relationship with this female Taoist, claiming that we were just deceived and did not know that she had The reason is that this person took a fancy to my Zhang family’s generosity and took the initiative to come to the door to get a helping hand, and the second is to show that my Zhang family has no intention of harming others, so that other aristocratic families believe it.”
"That's right." The head of the Zhang family nodded.
Fan Ji said slowly: "There are only a few ways to do it. One is to watch the woman and let her fight in public three days later, the other is to tie her up and hand her over to others, the third is to kill her to silence her, and the fourth is to let her escape. The concern of the head of the family is nothing more than the consequences of these four practices."
"Exactly." The Patriarch of the Zhang family nodded. Fan Ji smiled, and stretched out a finger: "I will say something for the Patriarch... If we adopt the first method and let her fight on the stage, her victory or defeat is meaningless to us. The most important thing is that I don't know her." Whether she really knows magic. It’s good if she doesn’t know, and I don’t have to do anything, but if she is not wronged and exposed in public, the Zhang family will also be embarrassed, even if we explain our ignorance at that time, to Everyone apologizes, but that has limited effect.
The common people may be able to believe it, but who would not play tricks on the occasion? If an apology can wash away suspicion, then things in this world would be too simple. And that Lingfengzi has Taoism in her body, so she won't be aimless, so I don't need to bet on whether this female Taoist is wronged, I guess what she said is true. "
The Patriarch of the Zhang family nodded repeatedly: "I think so too."
Fan Ji did not disagree, and continued on his own: "If you use the second method, you will act first, tie up the female Taoist priest and claim that we have been deceived. It seems that you have made your attitude clear, but It seems deliberate. After she finished speaking, we grabbed her with the back foot, as if we knew it long ago, making people feel that we want to cut off our tail to survive... This is just a trivial matter. Colluding with her to harm others is really inexplicable, so we are not suitable to attack that female Taoist. The third method is also the same. Although we are not afraid of being slandered, others will only kill us because we are guilty. , On the contrary, it seems that the harmful thing seems to be true, which arouses fear."
The eyes of Zhang Wentao next to him brightened: "So, Mr. Fan also agrees to let this female Taoist go?"
"Not all of them." Fan Ji said with a half-smile: "You are in the middle of the game, you only think about the Zhang family's relationship, but you forget that the most anxious thing is the female Taoist... If she is really a demon, you will never Even if we don't let her escape, she will definitely do it in the next three days."
The Patriarch of the Zhang family asked: "But that Ling Fengzi wants my Zhang family to take strict care of that person... I don't know what is the master's plan?
" It's not a strategy, it's just some simple methods.
Fan Ji waved his hand and said with a smile:
" Patriarch doesn't need to worry about that Lingfengzi being held accountable, because we don't play tricks and let that female Taoist go. In my opinion, as long as we don't send more people to guard the female Taoist, she will find an opportunity to escape on her own, and we will let go Tighten inside, force this female Taoist into a dangerous situation, let her hurt people, cause death, make a fake show, and make this matter a big deal. In this way, it seems that the Zhang family has not neglected protection, but did not expect This female Taoist is so amazing, she broke through and escaped, and the Zhang family immediately sent someone to Ye's house to ask Lingfengzi for guilt. We lost a few lives, and Lingfengzi could no longer be aggressive, and at the same time used a few lives Cleared up our relationship with that female Taoist, showing that we are not the same people."
Hearing this, the two looked at each other in blank dismay.
"But...if someone dies, my Zhang family..." The head of the Zhang family hesitated to speak.
"Haha, the head of the family is worrying too much. I mean, it's not the relatives of the Zhang family, but the servants who guard the courtyard. It's better to die with one or two stewards with surnames, so as to win people's trust." Fan Jiyu smiled.
Zhang Wentao couldn't help but said: "Sir, what you said sounds good at first glance, but it's just a bit taken for granted. How to ensure that this female Taoist kills people? What if this female Taoist doesn't escape?"
"It is enough to make some simple arrangements... If the female Taoist really fails to escape in the end, it will appear that the Zhang family has done a good job in taking care of her. In other words, I have the qualifications to win people's trust, and I am no longer passive like I am now... Remember, as long as this female Taoist is allowed to act first and kill people, the Zhang family can get rid of most of the ties." Fan Ji said in a calm tone. Not slow.
Patriarch Zhang and Zhang Wentao looked at each other, seeing the movement in each other's eyes, and lowered their heads to discuss.
And in a place where no one could see, an evil ghost in the shape of a baby girl followed Zhang Wentao's feet, listening to all the people's words.
After listening for a while, the ghost quietly left through the wall, drifting along the way, and returned to the bamboo forest hut.
Mei Zhanqing opened her eyes and took out a sachet from her bosom.
This sachet is black and red, with a bunch of weird tadpole patterns drawn on it, and a bunch of talisman-like talisman paper pasted on it, but it is a spiritual bag for raising ghosts.
She opened the spiritual bag and sucked the ghost back in. While rubbing the bag, her eyes flickered: "So that's the plan... Huh, it's good for me, and I can take advantage of the opportunity to act cheaply."
Two days passed in the blink of an eye.
The news that Wei Zifu and Xuanxin Layman are going to fight on stage has already spread throughout the market, arousing the interest of the general public in Ningtian Mansion, and everyone in the streets and alleys is talking about it.
In the city, a high wooden platform was built in a hurry, and it was used as a place for fighting skills. Countless people are waiting to watch the excitement tomorrow.
However, just the day before the fight, something happened
The servants of the Zhang Family's Nursing Academy came out in full force, and searched the streets all over Xuanxin Layman, and the people on the street were shocked to know that the female Taoist escaped, killed and wounded many servants of the Zhang Family who were chasing and intercepting her, and was fleeing in the city at the moment.
The Zhang family sued the officials, and the officials immediately dispatched officers to arrest them all over the city.
This change caused an uproar in the market, and many people were in danger, and hurriedly closed their doors for fear of being found.
At the same time, Zhang Wentao came to visit Zhou Jing with a group of servants, carrying more than a dozen corpses covered by straw mats, which immediately alarmed the Ye family.
In the hall, Zhou Jing, Wei Zifu, Ye Taigong, Ye Shunzhong and others gathered together to watch the Zhang family's servant move in more than a dozen terrified and black-faced corpses.
" Real person! You have to be the master for us! I waited to obey the real person's order and strictly guarded the Xuanxin layman. I didn't expect her to hurt people and killed many nurses in my Zhang family with evil methods. My Zhang family chased and intercepted me, but she broke through in the end. Only then did I know that Xuanxin Layman was really a monster. I was caught off guard and was deceived by her, thinking that she was a master of Taoism. Otherwise, how could we let her live in the house? My Zhang family mansion?”
Zhang Wentao's expression was agitated, with tears streaming down his face, and a tone of remorse and sorrow.
Wei Zifu stepped forward with a frown, looked at more than a dozen corpses and said in a deep voice:
"These people have been attacked by ghosts and ghosts, and they have been planted with corpse poison. Burn them quickly, otherwise they will be changed...Damn it, that monster still dares to harm people!
Speaking, he took out a stack of talisman papers from his arms, and stuck them on the foreheads of these corpses, reciting mantras to save lives, and he was quite proficient in his business.
Zhou Jing looked at these corpses, and then at Zhang Wentao who was complaining excitedly, his eyes were a little subtle.
But in the end, he still didn't say anything else, nodded and said; "You didn't believe what I said before, that's why this catastrophe happened, it really made Pindao heartbroken."
"Regret not to listen to the real person! The real person has sharp eyes, I am so ashamed, this time I came here to plead guilty, begging the real person to punish me!" Zhang Wentao beat his chest and stamped his feet.
"Your Zhang family did their best and suffered many casualties. How can you punish them?" Zhou Jing shook his head, then looked at Ye Taigong and asked, "What does the old man think?"
Grandpa Ye sighed: "Alas... It seems that the Zhang family was also deceived, the most urgent thing is to find this demon way first.
Hearing the words, Zhang Wentao hurriedly argued: "Exactly, I came to the door to ask Master Yufeng to help my Zhang family and Ye family catch the demon!"
- Wei Zifu raised his head and suggested eagerly; "This monster is running around in the city. In order to escape, I don't know what troubles will happen. We must catch it as soon as possible, and ask the real person to help."
Hearing this, Zhou Jing stood up, nodded and said: "It's reasonable, and the poor can't just sit idly by. I wanted you two to fight in public, so that the people of Ning Tianfu can see clearly that this person is really a demon. Thinking that she can't hold back now that she has manifested a sorcery, and the origin has been confirmed, that poor man will arrest her."
"There is a real person here, and it is really a blessing for Ning Tianfu to have a real person sitting in the town.
Zhang Wentao quickly offered a flattery. Zhou Jing's complexion remained unchanged, but his heart turned. The inside story of this matter is probably tricky, but after thinking about it, he decided to turn a blind eye and close one eye, not to pursue it in depth, and just treat it as it is.
The Zhang family took the initiative to present the magic evidence he wanted, and at the same time threw down his life, and even came to the door to plead guilty in public, whether it is true or not, Zixiong has done enough.
I didn't do this to deal with the Zhang family, it was just a reason to take the opportunity to make trouble. Now that the goal has been achieved, if I continue to be aggressive as an outsider, I will just add trouble to myself. After all, I have only been in Ningtian Mansion for less than a month, and I am not qualified to take the local entangled wealthy family with a knife and kill chickens and monkeys.
Bill's current route still requires some rules... unlike Chen Feng, who is lawless, who overthrows the table if he says it, and everyone doesn't eat.
With this in mind, Zhou Jing told everyone about the Ye family without further delay.
Wei Zifu activated the qi-watching technique, but found that there were many traces of yin and evil qi, which were difficult to distinguish, so he gritted his teeth and said angrily:
" This Mei Zhanqing has a vicious heart. She must have used evil methods on ordinary people to confuse the public. The streets and alleys in the city are intricate, so that the poor will not be able to track her for a while! She has slipped away from the poor many times before. , all use this plan!”
"So what should I do?" Zhang Wentao hurriedly spoke no matter whether he understood or not.
"Pindao can only - investigate." Wei Zifu has nothing to do. Zhou Jing shook his head: "Don't be so troublesome."
After all, he rose against the wind, soared upwards, flew higher and higher, looked down from the sky, and activated the elemental vision. A place of black and evil aura emerges ~IndoMTL.com~ with a panoramic view, and its location can be seen at a glance.
Like a kite, Zhou Jing flew across the sky over Ningtian Mansion. After a simple screening, he ruled out most of the options and saw Mei Zhanqing's whereabouts.
The demon path is concerned about running, so it is natural to go out of the city, and it is unlikely that it will take a long circle to delay time, so most of these sorcerous auras that confuse the public are made along the way, so that you can see Mei Chanqing's trace.
I saw that these traces were like an arrow pointing directly at Ximendu outside Ningtian Mansion, which was the ferry where Zhou Jing entered Ningtian when he stepped on the river.
One - Most of the monsters want to go down the river by water, and it is difficult to track.
"Found you..
Zhou Jing's eyes flashed, he locked on one of the evil spirits, and flew away in the air.
Wei Zifu and others below hurriedly chased Zhou Jing on the ground.
