Chapter 4 Snow Demon Arrives, Immortal’s Plan(2/2)
Soon after, Zhong Kui came to the city gate tower and bowed to Zhang Daoxian with a respectful attitude.
"Tonight will be the third day. We can't wait any longer." Zhang Daoxian said with a heavy face.
In the past two days, he had been living like a year, with endless thoughts and regrets surging in his mind every moment.
Zhong Kui's heart skipped a beat and he asked in a low voice: "Are you going to take action against those two Taoist priests?"
Zhang Dao
If we don’t kill them, we will be in big trouble.”
If it were normal times, he would have countless ways to defeat the master and disciple. But during these seven days, he really did not dare to mess around, because both heaven and the devil world were his concerns.
Either way, people should be upright, but if they do something bad, they will become suspicious and undecided.
"What do you mean?" Zhong Kui asked blankly.
"Before the news of the theft of demon spirits from the demon world reaches heaven, and heaven has not yet asked me about it, I am going to go to heaven and ask the Haechi beast to come down to earth to help." Zhang Daoxian said.
"The Haechi beast..." Zhong Kui murmured and asked, "How can this beast help us?"
"You don't know something." Zhang Daoxian explained: "The Haechi can distinguish right from wrong, and judge the good and the evil, the loyal and the traitor. Whenever there are difficult and unresolved matters, the Haechi's judgment will be accurate. Therefore, as long as the Haechi comes,
, if we ask the master and apprentice in front of it, we can understand the truth clearly without taking action."
Zhong Kui nodded silently, suddenly remembered something, raised his head and asked, "When will the immortal return?"
If Zhang Daoxian asks Haizhi to use it for several days, it's hard to say whether Hudu will still be there when he comes back.
"I will try my best to come back before tomorrow night, the day after tomorrow at the latest." Zhang Daoxian said: "So, the important task of guarding the capital will be left to you tomorrow. Don't let me down."
Zhong Kui nodded heavily: "When the city is alive, people will be there, but when the city dies, people will die."
"Also." Zhang Daoxian patted him on the shoulder and said seriously: "You must never tell others about my departure. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood." Zhong Kui responded.
"I'm leaving, Zhong Kui. Guard the capital!" Zhang Daoxian retracted his palm, and his body immediately turned into light and left.
late at night.
In the tent of the Loulan motorcade, seven women were sitting or lying in silence, as if they were silently waiting for something.
Not long after, a dark-skinned woman opened the curtain and entered, waving her sleeves to throw out a bubble, covering everyone in the tent and blocking out sounds from inside and outside.
"Sisters, I sneaked into the Demon Suppression Tower, but I didn't find any demons inside. I only found a headless unicorn corpse." The dark-skinned woman said in a deep voice.
"I heard from the people in the city that Zhang Daoxian put the demon spirit into the Demon Suppression Tower in front of all the people. How could it not be inside?" a banshee murmured.
"Perhaps it was just for the common people to watch. After the common people finished watching, the man named Zhang took away the demon spirit." The dark-skinned woman said.
"Won't."
Xue Qing said: "Before the full moon night on August 15th, he didn't dare to let the devil go to his body.
Because he could not be sure that the Heavenly Court would question him on that day. If the demon spirit was on him on the day of the inquiry, the Emperor of Heaven might directly take the demon spirit away from him, which was a result he could not accept.
After all, judging from what the Demon King told us, Zhang Daoxian did so many things all for himself."
"If it's not on him, and it's not in the Demon Suppressing Tower, where will the demon be?" the dark-skinned woman murmured.
Two figures suddenly flashed through Xue Qing's mind, and she said in a solemn voice: "It's most likely that it's Zhong Kui or that fierce Taoist priest."
Dark-skinned woman: "Then what should we do?"
Xue Qing thought carefully for a moment, then stood up and said, "I'll go to the Protector's Mansion to have a look."
The dark-skinned woman grabbed her wrist and said with concern: "As far as I know, Zhang Daoxian lives in the Duhu Mansion. It is too dangerous for you to go there like this."
Xue Qing sighed and said: "Danger? Xiaowei, it is an adventure for us to come here to find the devil. If we avoid anything dangerous, how can we find the devil?"
Yi Wei was speechless.
"Okay, I'll go find Zhong Kui first."
Xue Qing touched her cheek and said softly: "With the magic weapons that the king gave me, as long as I don't appear in front of Zhang Daoxian in person, he will not find me. As for Zhong Kui, he will not hurt me.
"
Regarding the last point, she was convinced!
