Chapter 720 Montenegro Laoye Temple
"After a long time of trouble, you are the descendants of the sword cultivator, not Mr. Li's disciple?"
After asking about the identities of Ning Caichen and others, the Taoist man on the opposite side scratched his head, looking puzzled: "Then why did he throw me over to save you? Do you have such a great face? Can he let him travel thousands of miles to throw Master Dao over to save you?"
The Taoist said to Zhuge Wolong: "I am Zhiqiu Yiye, the descendant of Kunlun in the middle of the Taoist sect. What do you call him?"
Zhuge Wolong and others hurriedly protected their names and at the same time told their situation.
Zhiqiu Yiye said in surprise: "You dare to rob prisoners? Do you know that you are illegal or criminal? Master Dao, I am a good Taoist who abides by the law, and I can't be with you."
He said with a panic look on his face: "Good farewell! Stop sending it!"
Zhuge Wolong: "...Senior, Mr. Li asked you to come here, it must have a deeper meaning. It may not be good if you just leave like this."
Zhiqiu Yiye: "Why isn't it good? I am a kind Taoist. I never violate the law and discipline. I only catch ghosts and monsters, and never interfere in the grudges and love in the world..."
"One hundred taels!"
Zhuge Wolong stretched out a finger and said, "One hundred taels of silver! You and us will send Lord Fu to a safe place!"
Zhiqiu Yiye was stunned: "What a hundred taels? A hundred taels of silver? Master Dao, am I a short of money? Just kidding!"
He took a few steps and walked, turned his head and said, "You just let me go like that? Don't you keep me? Brother, to be honest, I was actually a man who was eager to be righteous at the beginning, but one hundred taels is too little, right? How come I have to be three hundred taels, right? I am also from Kunlun lineage, the authentic Taoist sect's legitimate tradition..."
"Two hundred taels!"
"make a deal!"
Zhiqiu Yiye immediately smiled and laughed at everyone, "Isn't it okay to say it long ago? It's easy to do things with money. Master Dao, I will earn money for a bit of money today!"
Everyone: "..."
Fu Yuechi ran to Zhuge Wolong curiously and asked in a low voice: "Mr. Zhuge, how do you know that this man loves money so much?"
Zhuge Wolong said, "It's not easy? Look at his shoes, one big and the other small, and they are all smooth! Look at the clothes inside him, they are all yellow. I don't know how long he has been wearing them. If he had money, he would have changed into new clothes long ago! I don't know, with this master's ability, how could he be so tight, but since he is so short of money, I have to give it a try!"
Zhiqiu's ears moved, and he heard Zhuge Wolong's words, and complained to the heavens: "What do you know? It's hard to make money now! People who practice are eating a lot, and they have to spend money on cinnabar and yellow mounting. They have to buy good medicinal materials for placing medicines. They have to spend money on simmering muscles and bones. Anyway, everything they do costs money! Nowadays, people generally have no money. Dao Ye, I am embarrassed to collect too many people. So until now, I can't even bear to buy a new piece of clothing!"
He said this with anger: "The situation is too chaotic! Business is not easy to do!"
Zhuge Wolong deeply felt the same: "Only in troubled times, ghosts will be rampant. Now the current situation is chaotic and the people in the world are living in poverty, so such monsters will appear! Taoist Master, only when the world is peaceful and sweeping out the haze of the world can we give the people a clear sky. Under the clear sky, the sun shines brightly, naturally no ghosts will appear. You are a practitioner of Taoism and need to accumulate merit. Now we save Lord Fu Tianchou, even if we leave a vitality for the righteous path, the more upright officials we save, the greater the power to reorganize the rivers and mountains in the future!"
Zhiqiu Yiye said: "Don't tell me these great principles, I will only accept the money now! Let's go and settle you lord first!"
Zhuge Wolong said: "Master, I would like to ask, what are Mr. Li and my senior brother Yan Chixia doing now?"
"I have never seen Yan Chixia before, but Li Xiake said that he might have to go down the mountain and ask who he wants to know... "
Li Xiake did go down the mountain and had been walking on the road for several days. He looked extremely ugly all the way.
This country is a little better in the south. Although the people live in poverty, they have no major disasters and can barely make a living, but the north is not able to do so. The entire northern territory has been drought for years. After the drought, locusts are terrible. The locusts are extremely terrible, covering the sky and the sun, and nowhere can they pass!
All the leaves and crops were gnawed out.
Li Xiake walked on a small town and saw a lot of human flesh hanging on iron hooks on the meat stall along the way. Someone was killing people nearby, such as slaughtering pigs and dogs, stolen belly, cutting off the head and feeding the dogs. The rest of the parts can be eaten.
It's so cool!
In the small shop next to it, there was a shop stir-frying in a big pot. The strange aroma of the muscles on the thighs of the fried people drifted, causing the noses of the nearby victims to shake, and the green light flashed in their eyes, and saliva flowed.
"They actually eat people! Eat the same kind!"
Li Xiake walked along the way, and even with his nature, he felt a trembling feeling: "This world is a doggy life!"
He has also seen many famine years, but large-scale cannibalism like this is rarely seen.
The numb expressions, dull eyes and cruel behavior of these people made Li Xiake a little creepy.
"In such a situation, it is not surprising that any monsters will appear!"
In contrast to this miserable scene, the wealthy families in high-ranking families are constantly drinking and meat, and rice and flour. Some families of officials and wealthy families are still full of debauchery and never stopped.
The officials who provided disaster relief and food to raise the rice prices at this time and deducted them at will, and the food placed in the hands of the victims was less than three days old.
"In this disaster year, food will be deducted, and all these people should be killed! The emperor is stupid and cannot let him live!"
This situation made Li Xiake furious and immediately killed the officials, went straight into the imperial city, and wanted to kill the emperor.
After entering the imperial city, the demonic aura in the entire imperial city was rising, and no princes and ministers were seen. The entire capital was actually empty, and only the local prefecture was still dealing with the important matters of the capital.
When we entered the palace, we found that the emperor had disappeared. We asked the eunuch Bingbi in the palace, but we found that we had already left the palace, and we had left the capital with all the civil and military officials of the court. We went to the Heishan Laoye Temple with our national master Pudu Cihang to pray for rain!
In this important place in the capital, there were only a few eunuchs handling government affairs for the emperor, and all the officials left the capital. This was truly unprecedented in history. No normal court would do this.
"The emperor is stupid, why are the ministers in the court so stupid? Hehe, it's getting more and more interesting!"
None of the eunuchs in the capital were good things, but by this time, Li Xiake no longer dared to kill them. If they were killed, the whole country would be in chaos, and that would be a good intention to do bad things.
He was a Taishi and an emperor, and he knew the priorities. At this time, regardless of how chaotic the world is or how difficult the people's livelihood is, he could only seek stability and then slowly pursue it. Otherwise, it would be even more chaotic and more people would die.
But even so, the death penalty is avoided and the crime of living cannot be escaped. These eunuchs were beaten to the bruised nose and swollen faces, and then they planted a ray of true energy in their bodies. Then they left the capital and walked towards the Heishan Laoye Temple.
