Don't be afraid, I'm not a devil

Lighting sky lanterns was a form of torture in the old days, also called pouring human oil and wax. The specific method was to strip off the prisoners' clothes, wrap them in linen, and then soak them in an oil tank. After nightfall, he was tied head to foot to a tall wooden pole and lit from his feet, so that it would naturally become a natural light at night.

This can be considered reuse of prisoner resources.

Up to now, lighting sky lanterns has also kept pace with the times. There is another method used in punishment: drilling a small hole in a person's brain, pouring lamp oil and lighting it, which can make people burn in extreme pain. die.

Ji Changsheng has always been kind-hearted, but thinking about this kind of death makes him feel horrible, so he only wants to send the demon cult demon into the Ten Thousand People Umbrella.

However, both Yu Qingqing and the prince were vicious and cruel.

Ji Changsheng had no choice.

"Forget it, His Royal Highness, he is too filial."

His Royal Highness the Prince blushed.

The young master is really dirty when he curses.

"Sister Qingqing, what's going on with you? I always thought you were as soft-hearted as me."

Yu Qingqing said in a deep voice: "What these two people said are not human words. One treats the people as hostages that can be discarded at any time, and the other does not treat the people as human beings at all. The emperor of Qi deserves to die the most. The people who can live near the palace are already Qi They are the most prosperous people in the country, and he actually calls them poor people."

Ji Changsheng had never thought of this before.

After being reminded by Yu Qingqing, Ji Changsheng also reacted: "Good guy, it seems that the Emperor of Qi is not an ordinary rich man, so he looks down on people with roots in the imperial city."

It's like those celebrities are already very rich in the eyes of ordinary people.

But in the eyes of the richest man and the powerful, he is still poor.

Yu Qingqing sneered: "It's normal. Shi Xiang is so rich that he can rival the country. Doesn't the emperor know that? I'm afraid that most of them are with the emperor."

Ji Changsheng nodded: "That makes sense."

Heshen was corrupt, didn’t Qianlong know?

Didn’t Jiajing know about Yan Song’s corruption?

Powerful ministers are greedy.

There will only be more people who respect the emperor.

His Royal Highness the Prince is a smart man, and he was not deceived by the underworld demon at first sight. He immediately said: "Young Master, Fairy Jade, I am willing to search the inner treasury and use the royal spirit stone to make up for my father's fault."

Yu Qingqing glanced at the prince and thought that although Changsheng was a bad person, his methods did work.

If she and Wei Tingbao were to handle Qi's affairs, the prince might surrender, but he would certainly not be so obedient.

While they pronounced the fate of the demon sect, the Emperor of Qi and Prime Minister Shi were still kept in the dark, and they were also discussing what to do next.

The Emperor of Qi was a little panicked: "Xiang Shi, this monster did not kill these demons from the Demon Sect as expected. Then we may have to face the revenge of the demons from the Demon Sect. That is the Demon Sect, can we stop it?" "

"Your Majesty, there is no need to worry."

Compared with the Emperor of Qi, Xiang Shi was obviously much calmer.

"The major sects of the Righteous Path are also here, and the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect don't dare to attack us unscrupulously. The "Xianmen Convention" is here. If the Heavenly Demon Sect makes any changes, the sects of the Righteous Path will stop the Heavenly Demon Sect."

It was obvious that Shi knew more about the spiritual world.

But he didn’t know enough about Ji Changsheng.

"Are there people coming to Guanyin Hall too?" The Emperor of Qi looked at Prime Minister Shi.

Prime Minister Shi nodded: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will visit Hua Pinzhen, the true disciple sent by Guanyin Palace later. With my sister here, Guanyin Palace will definitely be on our side, don't worry."

His Royal Highness the Prince and Yu Qingqing both looked at Ji Changsheng.

Looking for Hua Pinzhen?

I'm afraid it's hard to find.

Ji Changsheng stopped pretending and went straight to show his cards: "Hua Pinzhen has already become the main soul of Lord Lanzhu's Hundred Soul Banner. Anyone named Shi who wants to find Hua Pinzhen can be satisfied."

What a big deal.

Ji Changsheng has always liked the beauty of adults.

"Where's the Huangquan Sect?"

"Your Majesty, don't panic. The Underworld Sect is fully prepared and the situation is still under our control. Regardless of how happy the Demon Sect is now, they will soon become pigs and sheep to be slaughtered. Not only the Underworld Sect, but also the Ten Thousand Demons Kingdom They also sent help secretly. The Qi State will only be our Qi State, neither the Heavenly Demon Sect nor the Xuandu Guan can change the world." There was huge confidence in Shi Xiang's tone.

This was also the reason why Ji Changsheng and Yu Qingqing did not take action immediately.

Yu Qingqing's expression changed slightly when she heard that the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom had also secretly sent help.

"Before we set off, the temple leader contacted the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons, but was rejected by the Lord of Ten Thousand Demons."

Ji Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly: "It seems that with Fairy Linglong's ascension, the pattern of good and evil will soon undergo major changes. With Fairy Linglong suppressing her these years, the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons may be very aggrieved."

"It's very frustrating." Yu Qingqing nodded and said: "In the past hundred years, whenever there is a situation where monsters cannibalize people, everyone will die if they are exposed. The monsters are unruly by nature, and they have been suppressed by Fairy Linglong for hundreds of years, and they have to endure it to the limit. "

"Hey, they can obviously eat chicken, duck and fish, so why can't they just think about it?"

Ji Changsheng looked up to the sky and sighed.

Chicken, duck and fish are all delicious.

If it doesn't work, it's delicious to eat the same kind of food.

Eating people is too much to think about.

My wife is gone and I am still here.

The Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons may still have to endure it.

"Report, the Imperial Master is asking for an audience."

The Emperor of Qi was overjoyed: "Please come quickly."

Ji Changsheng looked at the prince in confusion: "What is the Imperial Preceptor?"

Does Qi still have this thing?

The prince explained: "He is the master of the branch hall of the Qi Kingdom of the Guanyin Palace. In the Qi Kingdom, the Guanyin Palace is the most powerful immortal sect. My father was also a loyal believer of the Guanyin Palace before, and he always obeyed the words of Master Shi."

"Is your surname also Shi?"

"Yes, the two major surnames in Qi are the royal Xiao family and the Guanyin Shi family. In comparison, the Shi family is actually far more prominent than our Xiao family." His Royal Highness the Crown Prince smiled bitterly and said: "Xiang Shi has been able to resist rebellion for so many years. This palace is very strange."

After Ji Changsheng tasted it, the prime minister's surname was Shi, the harem's surname was Shi, and the most powerful immortal sect's surname was Shi.

The emperor's surname is Xiao.

If you look at it this way, the Shi family is really quite disciplined.

Yu Qingqing analyzed: "It should be that the Shi family is afraid that Shi Yao will be angry. I have been in contact with Shi Yao before, and she does not seem to be the kind of person who cares about fame and fortune in the world. With Shi Yao's talent, 70% hope to take over the Guanyin Hall in the future , how does she see the wealth of Shang Qi?"

Ji Changsheng nodded: "It makes sense, but Shi Yao doesn't like it, and the Shi family likes it, so the Shi family doesn't dare to go too far, lest they hate Shi Yao. But now it seems that the Shi family has gone too far. ?How can Shi Yao not know?"

"The surname of the master of the branch hall of Qi Kingdom in Guanyin Hall is Shi. Whether the Shi family has done too much depends on how she reports. As far as I know, Shi Yao has not returned to Qi Kingdom for at least twenty years." Yu Qingqing said.

The prince nodded and said: "It is true that Shi Yao has never come back, but I have always believed that the Shi family earned so many spiritual stones that they should all be used to support Shi Yao's cultivation."

"No." Yu Qingqing directly rejected the prince's judgment: "The relationship between Shi Yao and the Shi family is different from that between Du Zongsheng and the Du family. The Shi family was completely brought up by Shi Yao. Before Shi Yao was born, the Shi family His nationality and nationality are unknown in Qi. Every time Shi Yao goes up a level in Guanyin Hall, the Shi family goes up a level in Qi. The Shi family can’t keep up with Shi Yao’s footsteps, let alone provide help to Shi Yao.”

Ji Changsheng didn't know Shi Yao well. Hearing what Yu Qingqing said, Ji Changsheng thought thoughtfully: "There is a way to verify whether Shi Yao knows or not."

"any solution?"

"Search the Shi family and take Prime Minister Shi and Master Shi to light the sky lanterns. If Shi Yao can applaud me, then she is innocent. If she is not grateful to me, then she is deliberately covering up and she should be sent away. See Hua Pinzhen."

Ji Changsheng felt that there was nothing wrong with his analysis.

Yu Qingqing felt that Ji Changsheng was too extreme.

"Chang Sheng, you really do not forget your original intention as always."

Ji Changsheng said humbly: "Sister Qingqing is overrated. I just have a sworn relationship with the demon cult and I can't bear to see someone ruining the reputation of Guanyin Bodhisattva."

Cihang, my little brother.

Anyone who ruins my little brother's reputation will be at odds with me, the Antarctic Immortal Emperor.

While they were talking, the imperial master walked into the imperial study.

Ji Changsheng took a closer look and saw that she was a middle-aged woman who still had charm.

Golden elixir peak cultivation level.

For him now, it's not worth mentioning.

However, this is also in line with the specifications for the major immortal sects to send responsible persons to the dynasties in the human world, and the peak golden elixir cultivation level is a bit beyond the standard to be honest.

Yu Qingqing also sees it this way.

"His Royal Highness just now said that the spirit stones earned by the Shi family over the years may have been used to support Shi Yao's practice. This is unlikely. After breaking the pill and becoming a baby, the practitioner will be much less dependent on the spirit stones and can meditate by himself. The speed of swallowing and absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is not slower than the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from spirit stones. But under the Nascent Soul, it is indeed more convenient to use spirit stones to practice. This national master of the Shi family has a higher level of cultivation than the major immortal sects. The average strength of the person in charge of the human dynasty is much higher, so maybe she is the real place for the Shi family’s spirit stone. Changsheng, please sense her aura carefully, do you notice anything wrong?"

"Yes, it's only one level behind Du Zongsheng. It's not much different from Cao Ziming before. It's very wrong." Ji Changsheng said.

This is the level of genius disciples among the top immortal sects. It is only worse than the first person in the same realm like Du Zongsheng. Such genius will not be let go by the sect. They will definitely stay in the sect and cultivate them carefully. Even if When I go out, I just travel around as an imperial envoy.

"Sister Qingqing is right. This national master is more likely to have been piled up by a huge amount of spiritual stones. The spiritual stone resources she wasted are probably enough to train a dozen peak Golden Core monks, and even Nascent Soul monks."

Yu Qingqing's eyes narrowed and she said in a deep voice: "The robe she is wearing is the Tianlu Golden Robe that was auctioned for 1.38 billion high-grade spiritual stones at the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce three years ago. The seven-year-old robe hanging around her waist is The sky-high price of the magic sword Golden Flame Sun Chaser Sword that was auctioned by the former Tongtian Chamber of Commerce for 2.9 billion high-grade spiritual stones... is really outrageous. With my merit points in Xuandu Temple, including Shi Yao's status in Guanyin Hall, I can't apply for this kind of magic sword. A magic weapon of the same level. The Shi family has a big problem, and this national master has a big problem, and we must investigate it strictly."

The two numbers Yu Qingqing said shocked Ji Changsheng.

"These two things alone cost billions of high-grade spiritual stones? Sister Qingqing, are you reading that right?"

"You can't be wrong. I tried to bid for the Golden Flame Sun Chaser Sword seven years ago, but gave up after asking about the starting price. The Tongtian Chamber of Commerce's bidding mode is anonymous, and customer information is protected. This is also my first time in Qi. Today. Little did we know that the Golden Flame Sun Chaser Sword, which originally enhanced the combat power of the cultivators of the Transformation of Gods, had actually fallen into the hands of this Qi State Master."

"Here's the question. If she can spend billions on amulet robes and swords, then her net worth must at least double, right?"

Yu Qingqing shook her head and said: "I'm afraid doubling it is not enough. Practitioners have to change their magical instruments frequently, so it is impossible to invest all their wealth in it. Normally, a practitioner only spends on his own magical instruments. One or two years of annual income.”

Ji Changsheng and Yu Qingqing looked at each other.

It feels like they are country bumpkins who have never seen the world.

"Your Highness, she is just the national counselor of Qi State?"

His Highness the Crown Prince nodded.

Ji Changsheng: "...So Prime Minister Shi and the Dog Emperor are more greedy, right?"

His Royal Highness continued to nod: "Theoretically, that's the case."

Ji Changsheng and Yu Qingqing, two disciples of Xuandu Guan, were shocked by a small country like Qi.

Small officials are extremely corrupt.

Xiao Xiu is extremely rich.

Ji Changsheng, as a poor man with only one high-grade spiritual stone in his entire body, felt huge anger.

Yu Qingqing's brain was also a little confused: "Your country is like this, no one rebels?"

The prince smiled bitterly and said: "After Prime Minister Shi came to power, my father regarded Guanyin Temple as the state religion, and he became a crazy believer in Guanyin Temple on the surface, expanding temples on a large scale across the country. What goes up and what follows leads to results. Nowadays, there are many people in Qi. People believe in Western religions. Western teachings teach people to be good, pursue the next life, and encourage people to endure hardship and hard work, so the people of Qi are more tolerant."

Yu Qingqing: "..."

The murderous aura gradually boiled.

"Changsheng, I regret it."

"ah?"

"You are right, you should not follow the rules when dealing with these people." Yu Qingqing's words completely showed her current mood: "If Shi Yao doesn't accept it, she is a demon from the Huangquan Sect. If Guanyin Temple doesn't accept it, I will take over for you. Really. It’s outrageous that the Guanyin Temple’s teachings of guiding people to be good can actually turn the country into this horrible state.”

Ji Changsheng consoled him: "Sister Qingqing, please don't use foul language to damage your image as a fairy. Of course, I completely agree with your point of view. Your Highness, I am still confused about something. Is there so much oil and water in Qi State? Guanyin Palace Qi How does Kokubunden make money? I don’t think Guanyin Tears have been promoted in Qi before. Is it enough to just rely on Guanyin Blessed Land?"

In the past, in Shengguo, all blessed places showed their magical powers, which created the "prosperous age" of the Shengguo Branch of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce.

The Guanyin Hall in Qi State is the only one in the family, and it is theoretically impossible to support such extravagant expenses just by relying on the Guanyin Blessed Land.

His Royal Highness the Prince said: "Of course it's not enough to rely on Guanyin Blessed Land alone. They have other ways."

"What method? Are the profits of the slaughterhouse so high?"

"It's not a slaughterhouse. Wait a moment, young master, and you'll find out soon."

Ji Changsheng did find out very quickly.

Then he was messy in the wind with Yu Qingqing again.

After the Imperial Master came to the imperial study, the Emperor of Qi was overjoyed. He took the Imperial Master's hand and asked eagerly: "National Master, how is the situation of our spiritual stones?"

The national master nodded and said: "Fortunately, I made two preparations. The batch of spiritual stones stored in the Qi Guo Branch of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce was seized by the Demon Sect and did not have time to transfer them out. However, for the sake of safety, we had to transfer the other half of the spiritual stones before. The stone is placed in the golden robe of Tianlu, and these are still there.”

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good. The Demon Sect will also protest and take out our spirit stones. If there is a problem with the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, what does it have to do with our Qi country?"

"I'm afraid it's a bit difficult. The person in charge of the Heavenly Demon Sect this time is Ji Changsheng, who is very difficult to deal with." The national master said solemnly: "Your Majesty, let's keep the existing spiritual stones first."

"That's what the Imperial Master said. It just so happens that the personal business tax just collected by the treasury this year has arrived. We need to go through another process." The emperor said.

The Imperial Master nodded and handed over a roster.

"Your Majesty, your name has been listed on the door wall. From now on, you are also an outer disciple of our Guanyin Hall. Now you can go to the branch hall to worship the Buddha."

The emperor followed the good advice and said: "The Imperial Master will lead the way. I will practice Buddhism now. I will give you alms, and I will leave the rest to you."

"Yes, I will immediately organize the ministers to write a letter and spend a lot of money to redeem His Majesty. The country of Qi cannot live without His Majesty, just like the Guanyin Temple cannot live without Bodhisattva."

"As soon as possible, the Demon Sect is coming, and more and more disciples from other sects are coming. We have to successfully transfer the spirit stones out before they react, otherwise, according to the behavior of those in the Zhengdao Immortal Sect, Bai Huahua's spirit stones will be lost. Shi may really want to take advantage of those poor people."

"Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will personally supervise the matter and will definitely 'redeemed' Your Majesty within two days."

…

Ji Changsheng and Yu Qingqing were both confused.

Yu Qingqing began to be in a trance: "Changsheng, can you understand what it means?"

Ji Changsheng was also made less confident by the tricks of these three guys, and he guessed uncertainly: "Their way to make money is to let the dog emperor worship the Guanyin Hall, and then ask Qi Guo to spend a lot of money to redeem it? In this way? Once upon a time, the spiritual stones in the Qi State treasury were transferred to the Qi State Branch Hall of Guanyin Hall?"

Even though Ji Changsheng was well-informed, he had rarely seen someone with such an ugly appearance, so he looked at His Highness the Crown Prince very unconfidently: "Your Highness, is this true?"

The prince gave an affirmative answer: "That's it, almost once a year. The Guanyin Temple can bloom all over Qi, thanks to my father and Prime Minister Shi."

Ji Changsheng: "..."

Yu Qingqing: "..."

The two country bumpkins were deeply shocked by such a simple and crude way of playing.

Ji Changsheng even rarely started to reflect on himself. Why did he feel that he did a rough job when he was in Shengguo?

Isn't this much more exquisite than what these three scum did?

Facts have proved that Ji Laomo is still a human being.

There are too many things in this world that are no longer human.

Yu Qingqing's body was trembling, and she finally lost control of her murderous intention after a second.

"Death to the monster!"

The long sword is unsheathed.

The imperial palace of Qi State fell into a sea of ​​blood.

Ji Changsheng patted His Highness the Crown Prince on the shoulder, reflected and apologized: "Your Highness, I misunderstood you just now. You are right, there are no living people in the Qi Palace, they are all dead people who have worshiped the Huangquan Sect."

The prince said respectfully: "Young Master, you are good at everything, but you are too kind-hearted. Our Qi State used to worship the Guanyin Temple, and it shed too little blood. It needs a major blood exchange to regain its vitality."

Ji Changsheng nodded: "You're right, you're right. I really still have to accept advice with an open mind."

It seems that the disciples of the Holy Cult cannot continue to use the old methods in their cultivation.

Tiansheng Medical Center and Tiansheng Animal Husbandry serve the people of Qi.

The Demon Suppression Group targets all demon cultists.

"Your Highness, go and make a list of the underworld demons and give it to Wen Renjiayu. After verification, you can take action."

"Young Master is wise!"

Thanks to classmate Zhuge Zongheng for reminding me about this chapter, which reminded me of the strange Emperor Wu of Liang. Going to practice Buddhism and asking ministers to spend huge sums of money to redeem him is a true thing that this guy has done in history... History and reality are so inspiring that it's hard to describe in just one sentence.
