Day and night tour

Chapter 309: Traces of Fire
Dongshi Street, Zhou's Cleaning Shop,

Everyone was delighted that Zhou Xuan had learned a new skill, and that it was the "shape-shifting" technique of the Ancient Crow Clan. They continued to serve him good wine and braised food and drank happily.

While drinking, Zhou Xuan said to Yu Zhengyuan: "Big Brother, the burden on your shoulders will be heavier in the future."

"how to say?"

"I have reached a new cooperation with the Bone Elders Association."

Zhou Xuan explained the transaction between him and the painter clearly.

"Justice of the Peace, can you help our Zhou family make more money?"

Yu Zhengyuan couldn't believe it.

"We, the Zhou family, need to develop, and our ancestors need popularity. If we want to develop, we need money. The Gu Lao Club can provide us with a lot of money."

Zhou Xuan said: "However, if the masters and apprentices earn more money, they will inevitably become arrogant and extravagant. Maybe gambling, opium, and prostitution will happen widely in the Zhou family.

Therefore, Big Brother, we must rectify the Zhou family's thoughts and not let them be corrupted by money. We must still maintain a simple and pure love of labor."

He wanted to give the task of "rectifying work style" to Yu Zhengyuan.

"I won't let my junior brother down."

Yu Zhengyuan is already thinking about how to rectify his work style.

Moreover, there have indeed been similar signs in the Zhou family class recently. It is rumored that Master Luo, who is in charge of the water tank in the class, is no longer satisfied with smoking water pipes and dry pipes. He has started smoking Fushou cigarettes in the tobacco shop...

As for the other masters, the number of times they went to brothels also increased significantly. With money, the hundreds of people in the team no longer had to worry about food, clothing, housing, medical treatment, children's schooling and the like. However, it also brought new troubles.

In the near future, the Zhou family will become even richer, and the salaries of masters and apprentices will be raised to a higher level.

In addition to paying salaries, the extra money will also be used to expand the family business. More masters and apprentices will join the Zhou family troupe. If they do not rectify their thoughts and work styles now, when the size of the troupe doubles, more and more acute conflicts will emerge all at once.

With Zhou Xuan's suggestion, Yu Zhengyuan felt that it was urgent to rectify the ideological and work style problems of the Zhou family.

"Big Brother, I believe you. The Zhou family's ancestral tree needs popularity, but it needs hardworking popularity, not the arrogant and domineering habits of evil young men."

"Junior brother, you are capable and clear-headed. You are worthy of being the most eye-catching boy in our Zhou family class. Well said!!"

Yu Zhengyuan grabbed the cup and wanted to drink with Zhou Xuanpeng.

"High Priest, we are being followed by people from the White Tiger Village, and they have overheard our secrets. High Priest, please help us, Tianzun, and kill them."

Awang's request echoed in Zhou Xuan's secret realm.

Zhou Xuan didn't even bother to drink the wine. He just said, "Big Brother, I have something urgent to do. I'll drink the wine later."

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and entered the secret realm.

In the Taoist temple of Chenghuang in Xuejing, Zhou Xuan said to Xuejing: "Jingzi, pull the Achnatherum splendens and sesame paste into the secret realm."

Suddenly, snow began to fall in the Taoist temple. In the snow, two blurry figures appeared in front of Zhou Xuan.

"High Priest, we are not doing a good job."

"The people of White Tiger Village understand the laws of space and are now on their way back to the village."

Sesame paste was very upset.
Achnatherum splendens was more depressed.

Zhou Xuan asked, "Since he understands the laws of space, he has the speed of heaven and earth. He can enter Huangyuan Mansion from Mingjiang Mansion in a few moments. Does he still have time to intercept and kill him?"

"The man just now, holding the tiger claw in his hand, is the Earth Tiger that the White Tiger Village ambushed in Mingjiang Prefecture. He did not comprehend the law of space by himself."

"It relies on the Yin Tang magic weapon." Ji Ji Cao also helped, saying: "The Yin Tang magic weapons are all passed down by the gods behind the scenes. They can exert laws, but after all, they are not real laws and have major flaws."

Zhou Xuan nodded and waited for Ji Ji Cao to continue.

"He used the White Tiger Claw to cut open space, and then used the White Tiger Claw to walk in another layer of space. His speed was relatively slow, and he needed to rest in the middle of the journey."

Ji Ji Cao said: "After all, we are people living in the real space. If we enter another space, we will be repelled by the forces there. Only those who truly understand the laws of space can be at ease and perfectly integrated into another space."

I see,

When Zhou Xuan thought of this, he understood that the tiger in Baihu Village was probably still resting somewhere, maybe inside the city or outside the city. In short, he couldn't be like the painter or Mr. Feng, who could teleport thousands of miles away with just one step.

"Does Baihu Village have any secret letters?" Zhou Xuan asked the two.

"That's the ability of the Zhengtang. We in the Yintang don't have it." said Jijicao.

"That's easy. You guys wait first. I will naturally find a way to kill the ground tiger."

"I will obey the High Priest's order."

Stipa striata and Sesame paste bowed at the same time and left the secret realm.

Although the space law of Dihu is an incomplete version, it is not an easy task to lock it down wherever he is now.

Zhou Xuan's spirit can patrol the city of Mingjiang Prefecture during the day, but if the earth tiger is hiding in a lush old forest or in an old house, it cannot be found by patrolling alone. In other words, it is a waste of time to search for it by using the spirit to travel during the day.

Right now, there are only two solutions.

First, let Xuejing ask for divination and directly calculate the location of the Earth Tiger.

But this method is not feasible.

Divination has its own rules and can only be done once a week.

Zhou Xuan has used this opportunity to ask "Which state is Xu Jingchuan in?"

Since divination is not possible, the only option is to use the second method... the Buddhist Kingdom's main brain.

The mastermind of the Buddha Kingdom has long been transformed by Miss Wall, and every day in the secret realm he repeats the passionate words "The Buddha Kingdom and I cannot coexist"

Now, this master brain is going to come in handy.

The main brain is very small and extremely fast. It can appear in any corner of Mingjiang Mansion. Not to mention deep mountains and old houses, it can even enter mud and swamps.

"The main brain was originally used to deal with the Zoroastrianism. It is probably a waste of talent to deal with a ground tiger."

When Zhou Xuan said this, he walked into the secret realm and said to the Buddhist Kingdom's main brain: "Xiao Nao, find someone for me."

"Mr. Zhou, who are you looking for?"

"Earth Tiger, characterized by holding a white tiger claw in its hand."

"Okay, sir."

The leader of the Buddhist kingdom readily agreed.

Zhou Xuan released the Buddhist Kingdom's main brain out of the secret realm, and this object, which was only the size of a walnut, disappeared into the night of Mingjiang Mansion.

……

Fusheng Town outside the northern city of Mingjiang Prefecture.

The town is not small, with thousands of households. Li Guansheng, the "Earth Tiger", is sitting in a house to rest. On the table, lies a white tiger paw.

"Li Liuyun, Awang, I didn't expect that the people from your two villages would actually work for the same person. Tianzun, who is this Tianzun?"

"We also need to investigate the Nine Snake God. Hmm... We must let the old priest know this information."

Thinking of this, Li Guansheng stood up, his legs still a little weak.

Relying on the Yin Tang magic tools to forcibly activate the laws has such disadvantages.

He could walk in another layer of space, but he could not go too far. If he forced himself to go far, the strong wind in that space would tear his body into pieces.

Therefore,
As the local leader of Baihu Village, he bought four houses on the road between Mingjiang Prefecture and Baihuzhai as a resting place.

He gently rubbed his thighs with both hands, picked up the White Tiger Claw, and was about to activate the Law of Space again, but he did not notice that
There is a new thief in the house.

A grayish-white object the size of a walnut was staring at him closely, and it also transmitted his shape and appearance to Zhou Xuan through a link.

"In the name of the White Tiger Lord, I fell into the ghost space."

After praying, Li Guansheng clenched the tiger claws and tried to tear open the void.

"Brother Dihu, where are you going in such a hurry?"

Zhou Xuan's spirit appeared, and he stood behind Li Guansheng with his hands behind his back.

When Li Guansheng heard the voice, he turned around immediately. After just one look, he felt his legs and feet go weak.

He is the Earth Tiger of the White Tiger Village.

Dihu is a person in the village who is responsible for gathering information and intelligence in Mingjiang Prefecture. His duties are similar to those of Awang.

How could he not know the most popular young master in Mingjiang Mansion when he was doing intelligence work day and night?

"Little...Little Sir."

"I am not a person who kills without restraint. Just sit here and let me clear the memory from your head. I will spare your life today."

Zhou Xuan and Li Guansheng didn't have any deep hatred. It was just that Li Guansheng knew something he shouldn't have known.

Should I listen to Zhou Xuan, or...

As a disciple of the Yin Hall, Li Guansheng was naturally distrustful of the disciples of the Zheng Hall. Moreover, he was somewhat confident in his own laws of space.

In a flash, he turned around and used the White Tiger Claw to tear open the space and jumped into the "Monster Space", determined to return to the White Tiger Village.

"If you don't obey, then there's nothing I can do."

Zhou Xuan released his perception, and his soul followed.

……

The daily movement of the soul, when not changing its form, is extremely fast, and can even keep pace with Mr. Feng's "No Distance in the World". Naturally, Li Guansheng, relying on the space laws activated by the Yin Hall magic weapon, cannot outrun Zhou Xuan.

The powerful perception penetrated the real space, enveloped Li Guansheng, and locked his position.

"I heard that this young gentleman's level of incense is extremely powerful, and he can even travel through the day. However, his soul can't do anything." Li Guansheng had very accurate information, which was why he dared to use the law of space to escape even after recognizing Zhou Xuan.

But Zhou Xuan today is different...

……

A few moments later,
Li Guansheng has appeared in another "post station", inside a large courtyard in Gujing Village.

In this courtyard, Li Guansheng supported his knees with his hands, bent over and gasped.

Zhou Xuan's spirit reappeared and said sternly, "Di Hu, I've already told you to be obedient and I'll spare your life, but you insisted on running away."

"Young sir, I know you are powerful, but your spirit can't do anything to me. Even if you go to the Youshen Division to ask for help now, you can't stop me. The location of the White Tiger Village is only one step away from me. I can return to the village after I catch my breath."

"Your breathing is uneven."

Zhou Xuan once again stimulated his perception, activated the power of Feng Shui, and changed his shape.

After his body and soul exchanged positions, his soul traveled again during the day and arrived at Gujing Village.

With his soul and body united as one, Zhou Xuan's tall shadow was cast by the bright moon above the courtyard.

The soul has no shadow, only people have it.

"You...you have comprehended the laws of space?" Li Guansheng discovered that the information he had collected was still not accurate enough.

Zhou Xuan did not reply, but stretched out his hand and threw the main brain into the secret realm. He decisively activated the magic horse and instantly teleported behind Li Guansheng. Then, he used the "magic weapon to protect his body", and the bone teeth flowed around his body, forming a white light shield.

Without the divine power, he only has the fighting power of four incense sticks, while Li Guansheng has the fighting power of six incense sticks.

There is a huge gap between the levels of incense offerings of both sides.

In order to save his life, Li Guansheng also used the White Tiger Claw to block the Bone Fang, fighting and retreating.

"It's still six sticks of incense."

Zhou Xuan's perception was extremely strong. He was able to judge Li Guansheng's level just by meeting him face to face.

He immediately drew a tattoo of the hand of the Nuo god in the empty mirror. After the tattoo was pulled out, the god took up his spirit and raised the power of his incense sticks to six.

After Zhou Xuan and Li Guansheng became spirits, the gap in incense offerings between them was eliminated.

But Zhou Xuan's "divine weapon protecting the body" is the ninth level of bone and tooth skills of the tattoo clan, which is far beyond the reach of Li Guansheng.

As the incense realm increased, the radius of the white light ball protected by the bones and teeth expanded by half a meter. The momentum brought by each flow was something Li Guansheng could not resist or hide from.

"Boom, boom, boom..."

After one or two encounters, Li Guansheng's body was covered with dense blood holes, and his tiger claws were knocked away.

"Young sir, I am willing to cooperate with you..."

Zhou Xuan did not answer, but pointed at Li Guansheng's throat. The bone tooth flowed over and pierced Li Guansheng's throat.

He ignored the limp body of Li Guansheng and walked to the tiger claw. He slowly squatted down, picked it up, held it in his hand, and looked at it carefully in the moonlight...

……

Li Liuyun and Awang were waiting anxiously at the restaurant stall.

They were all very ashamed. It was their first time doing work for the Heavenly Lord, and before they had even started the main business, complications had arisen that required the high priest to personally handle.

"Awang, do you think the high priest can kill the ground tiger?"

"What kind of person is the high priest? Little Li Guansheng, there is no way you can escape."

"Do you trust the high priest so much?" Li Liuyun asked.

"He can easily suppress madness and give out the "White Bone Immortality Mountain" as a reward. Don't you understand? He is the young master in Mingjiang Mansion..."

"Is it him?" Li Liuyun asked.

"The person behind the scenes." Awang added.

"The person behind Little Mister?"

"Of course." Awang said, "Zhou Xuan rose to power too quickly. There are many abnormalities in his rise. I suspect that Zhou Xuan is also working for the High Priest and the Heavenly Lord. He is someone that our Blood Well Society has pushed to the surface."

Awang pretended to think, and said, "The high priest has supported the young master. In just a few days, the young master has become a very prominent figure in Mingjiang Prefecture. So how capable is the high priest? Do I need to tell you?"

"Li Guansheng is just a Yintang disciple of Liuzhu. He is not even worthy of carrying the shoes of the high priest."

Awang's analysis, which was as swift as a tiger, gave Li Liuyun some peace of mind.

At this moment, the same voice was heard from the secret realm of the two people at the same time.

"Dongjiang Hotel, room 403."

"The high priest responded to us. Could it be that... the Earth Tiger has been killed?"

Li Liuyun said in surprise.

From the time they asked the high priest for help until now, less than three or four minutes had passed.

"Go and see."

Awang and Li Liuyun drove to Dongjiang Hotel, went to room 403, and turned the door.

The door was not locked. After pushing it open and turning on the light, Li Liuyun and Awang saw Li Guansheng's head placed on the windowsill, with fresh blood flowing from the broken neck.

"boom!"

Awang closed the door, kowtowed and knelt toward the moon outside the window, and said devoutly: "Thank you, Moon God, for guiding us to find our true master..."

"It turns out that the promises made by the high priest at the Blood Well Conference were all true." Li Liuyun said.

At the Blood Well Conference, Zhou Xuan made two promises. The first one was to suppress madness.

The second promise was to lead the members of the Blood Well Society to live a normal life, and he would take action against anyone who dared to hunt the Blood Well psychic.

"Today, Li Chengfeng saved us in front of the God Touring Division. The high priest only took two or three minutes to kill the six-stick earth tiger Li Guansheng.

With such extraordinary power, we no longer need to question the power of the high priest."

Li Liuyun's last bit of doubt about the Blood Well Society was also completely dispelled.

"I have said it before. The high priest is someone you and I cannot look up to. We two must handle the matter of the Nine Snake God. This is our first token of loyalty to the high priest."

Awang is very sober.

The Blood Well Society will definitely enjoy the protection of the high priest in the future, but the prerequisite is that the members of the Blood Well Society must also demonstrate their own value.

A man of such extraordinary talent as the high priest would not protect a group of worthless people for his entire life.

"Yes, it must be done well." Li Liuyun is now thinking about not only the "White Bone Immortal Mountain" tattoo, but also how to find out the Nine Snake God and hold on to the strong thigh of the high priest...

……

"Lao Yun, this white tiger claw doesn't look like something from Jing Country."

Zhou Xuan handed the white tiger claw seized from Li Guansheng to Yun Ziliang.

Yun Ziliang leaned back in the recliner, looking left and right. He also felt that the tiger claw was very strange. It had an aura similar to that of Buddha, but upon closer inspection, it was not Buddha's aura.

"No, the breath is very familiar..." Yun Ziliang thought carefully.

After a long while, he suddenly sat up straight and said, "I see. This is the flavor of Zoroastrianism."

"Sure?"

"Yes, it is Zoroastrianism."

Yun Ziliang was very excited. He held the tiger claw in his hand and said, "The aura attached to it has an inexplicable religious connotation. I felt this connotation three hundred years ago in Jingchuan Mansion."

"Why would a Yintang be related to Zoroastrianism?"

In Zhou Xuan's understanding, Zoroastrianism is a mysterious organization that comes and goes without a trace.

The Taoist priest said that in the long river of time and space in the Well Country, he had never discovered any big fish or important secrets of Zoroastrianism.

"Wait, Lao Yun, let me show you something else."

Zhou Xuan took out another talisman from the secret realm—the Zoroastrian Fire Tongzhen talisman.

"What is this?"

"I got it when I went to the sky to kill Gong Zheng's Dharma body. It contains twenty-four sky-level gods. It is the observation of Zoroastrianism over the past few hundred years. In the past few days, I have been summoning gods, lecturing on books, and reading the Yama divination. I almost forgot about it."

"I took a quick look at this scroll and found some information about the White Tiger Claw. I'll look for it for you."

Zhou Xuan turned to a certain page and handed it to Yun Ziliang.

……

An emergency meeting was held inside the Youshen Division in Liyuan Building.

The painter holds two talismans in his hands.

"These two scrolls, one comes from the Kuishan Taoist Temple, and the other comes from the Xijiao Temple."

These two places were where the ancient tree golden bell sent out the bell slaves and suffered murder.

The painter searched all night and found the two talismans in Taoist temples and Buddhist temples.

"The contents of the scroll have already shown that the Xijiao Temple is a Zoroastrian temple that is designed to deceive people."

"The so-called Kuishan Taoist Temple is the spy placed by King Xishan in Mingjiang Prefecture. King Xishan wore the red hat issued by Jingguo, so he could unify all the Yintangs in the deep mountains and strongholds of Mingjiang Prefecture. It would be fine if he was not grateful to Jingguo and Mingjiang Youshen Division, but he even planted spies in the prefecture city.
What's going on? A traitor from the Hu clan wants to be a chess player?"

The painter slapped the scroll in his hand on the table and said, "Laole, Wenjun, you two go find King Xishan and ask him if he still wants the red crown on his head.
If I don't give him a warning, he would really think that he is among the immortals..."
