Exorcism

The fire of mutiny in the imperial capital has not been completely extinguished, but the Taoist temple area has become deserted in advance. The low-level Taoist priests are not interested in the great changes happening among mortals. Another kind of fire is burning in their hearts - the desire to slay demons. Tao fire. In order to confirm how strong this fire was, they returned to their own Taoism one after another, pondered quietly, and persuaded their fellow Taoists. After a month, if they were still firm in their choice, they would withdraw from the Taoism and come to the Imperial Capital to participate in the beheading. Demon society.

Some people have already made a solemn promise to Mu Xingqiu that they will definitely come back. There are not many such people, about thirty or so. They either feel that they owe a favor, or they have relatives and friends who died at the hands of the demon soldiers, and they are eager for revenge.

Taoist Priest Pangshan also left. Yang Qingyin felt that she didn’t need to think about it anymore, but she wanted to bring more Taoist priests back. “The Demon Slayer Association is not prosperous enough. It would be good if two hundred of these five hundred people can come back. We still have to Encourage more people to join.”

Shen Hao and Xiao Qingtao also returned to the mountain for the same reason.

Mu Xingqiu must stay in the imperial capital to draw up an agreement with Shen Jixian. This agreement gives the Demon Slayer Club status and puts heavy pressure on it. An inconspicuous mistake in details may lead to endless disputes. Therefore, both parties They all took it very seriously and discussed it word for word, not letting go of any possible ambiguity.

There were more than a dozen Taoist priests behind Shen Jixian, while Mu Xingqiu had only one Xin Youtao beside him.

Xin Youtao had just escaped from danger and was still in the process of recovery, so he did not participate too much in the coup in the imperial capital. He spent most of his time in the Pangshan Gym, staying with Mu Xingqiu, helping him consider the words, and often even taking over the host. He is indeed much better than Mu Xingqiu in making direct suggestions.

He brought the princess's thanks that she was fine and was not threatened by the assassins. However, the murder of the emperor's grandson had a great impact on her and Xi Jieguo, and made the coup that had just occurred even more confusing.

"The situation is very complicated." Xin Youtao poured a cup of tea for himself and Mu Xingqiu respectively, "We all know that Liang Shiji and the emperor's grandson are soul changers, but the ministers of the court and the people in the city don't know that the play between these two people is really real. Well, Liang Shiji and Fu Meng had a quarrel in front of the eunuchs. Liang Shiji claimed that he could not let the imperial power fall into the hands of a woman. For the sake of the Sheng Fu Dynasty - he indeed said so - he must kill the emperor's grandson and let that Women cannot be future queens.

Xin Youtao sighed. He and Mu Xingqiu had just finished discussing an agreement and gave it to his sister. "This is my sister's current situation. The coup was successful, but she has become an embarrassing person. The wedding has not yet been held. , so she is not even the widow of the emperor's grandson. Most of the main forces in this coup are members of the royal family and supporters of the royal family. When my sister loses her status as crown princess, she loses her binding force on them. "

"How is she going to deal with it?" Mu Xingqiu was relieved. The fact that the princess was hit just showed that she had not been soul-changed. In the future power system conceived by the soul-changer,

There is no room for her anymore.

"I don't know yet. Maybe she can find another heir to the throne to get married. With her current status, she can marry anyone she wants. The key is to see the attitude of people like Fu Hao. If they support it, everything will be peaceful. If they don't support it... Alas, all the years of my sister’s business have been in vain.”

Xin Youtao lowered his head and thought for a while. Compared to Taoism, he still cared more about his sister's career, "But there is a good thing. My sister doesn't have to marry Fu Meng. The body of the emperor's grandson hides the soul of an old guy. , I feel sick just thinking about it, is he hundreds of years old?”

Xin Youtao has experienced soul-changing, so he feels that this kind of thing is particularly disgusting, "I can't believe that the powerful Qu family turned out to be just a target, and the real people in power are those who look weak. I have only seen Once the emperor couldn't stand up, so he had to be carried by four eunuchs. I saw the chief talisman master very often. He looked as if he could be scared to death by a mouse. As long as it was an official document sent by Qu Xungui, He stamped it without even looking at it, for fear of being late."

Xin Youtao said to himself, still feeling unbelievable, "So the two people lying on the bed unable to move or speak are actually no longer the old emperor and the chief, but two completely unrelated people."

He shuddered, thinking of those days when he was in a daze. At that time, his soul was probably trapped in the old emperor's body. He did not feel the glory of the emperor at all, but was just immersed in one dream after another. Among them, since he regained his freedom, he has not closed his eyes for fear of dreaming again and not being able to wake up.

"Promise me one thing." Xin Youtao suddenly became serious.

"What's up?"

"If I have another strange change, kill me immediately. Don't hesitate. I would rather die than experience separation of body and soul again."

Mu Xingqiu looked at Xin Youtao, "If it were me, I would try my best to find those seven people and avoid future troubles."

"Hehe." Xin Youtao laughed twice, realizing that Mu Xingqiu was not joking, and he also gained fighting spirit, "Yes, they can just change souls. They don't have the powerful spells of high Taoist priests. Why should I be afraid of them?" They find them and catch them all... To be honest, you don't need to pay too much attention to this matter. Soul-changing will have no impact on the Taoism and the Demon Slayer Association."

"They hold the secrets of Yelin Town."

"It's just possible." Xin Youtao said calmly, "Shen Hao is going crazy about this matter. You have to stay calm. Qu Xungui is obviously trying to sow discord. He may have some knowledge of the soul changer and knows that his failure is They are using their tricks, so they deliberately lead you to avenge him. And my sister will not admit defeat. She can ensure her own safety and defeat these seven enemies hiding in the dark."

"I read the Taoist records again." Strictly speaking, Mu Xingqiu thought about it again. He sorted out the records of demon species that Fangfang had found in his mind. "I found something very interesting. , in all the previous invasions of demons, if they had not broken out of the land of demons, there would have been no disappearances. Once they entered the vassal states and the Shengfu Dynasty and were surrounded and suppressed by the Long Bin Society, some humans would almost always disappear inexplicably. "

"Because there are no humans in the land of demons, maybe the demons are only interested in humans." Xin Youtao guessed.

"No, in Yelin Town, I personally saw demon species parasitizing demons. In their eyes, demons are no different from humans. How powerful is the demon spell that can make thousands of people disappear? Taoism Why don't you care? All the books simply record this type of incident and never explain it. No one in the Forbidden Secret Department studies it. Zuo Liuying is so concerned about the demon species taking away the real illusion, but he is not interested in these strange disappearances. I’m not interested at all. Isn’t it strange that a demon species that can make hordes of humans disappear would stretch out a giant hand to grab the real illusion?”

On the surface, Mu Xingqiu didn't care as much as Shen Hao about his missing relatives, but he had more on his mind. He raised a finger and said, "There is only one reasonable explanation. The devil has no ability to make people disappear. With this ability, The people are Long Binhui, the seven soul changers."

Xin Youtao thought for a while, "But Qu Xungui is not a soul changer at all, but he went to Yelin Town."

"He is a worker. The soul changer will not tell him his true purpose, but Qu Xungui must have guessed something, so he is particularly interested in our experiences at that time."

"I guess soul changers need people who have been invaded by demons to maintain the soul-changing technique and ensure their own immortality. This is what Qu Xungui cares about most, but he failed to understand all the secrets, and finally ended up with the demon race cooperate."

Xin Youtao's brows furrowed into two deep grooves, and then he nodded, "What you said makes sense, so you must find seven soul changers."

"must."

"I understand. In fact, I should be happy, because in this way we are helping each other, instead of me asking you for help."

"You wanted to ask me for help?"

Xin Youtao smiled, "The original plan was to ask for your help, because I think your reason for arresting the soul changer is not sufficient. Just because of Qu Xungui's words before his death, you created a group of secret enemies for yourself. ? This is not like your character. But after hearing what you said, I felt relieved. Haha, did you notice that I also used a trick to retreat, deliberately saying that you don’t need to care about the soul changer, but I didn’t expect you to take the bait. Come on, you caught me before I even hung the bait. Since we are helping each other, I don’t have to ask for help. I haven’t paid off the favors I owe you, and I don’t want to add another one.”

Mu Xingqiu also smiled. It was always interesting to see Xin Youtao performing tricks.

Xin Youtao became more interested and continued: "The longer you live, the more you cherish your life. These seven soul changers are no exception. There are more than one people working for them. Starting from here, we may be able to find out the residents of Yelin Town. Why did he disappear and where did he go?”

"Is this the bait you prepared?"

"Haha, this bait is not completely ready yet. Many Talisman Masters of Long Binhui died, and many records were destroyed by fire. Now it seems that it is probably the intention of the soul changer. But they are mortals after all, and there is always something wrong with them. Omission, I promise to find one or two talisman masters who have been to the place where the demon species invaded within three days, www.a.c As for getting them to speak, it depends on your ability. "

Xin Youtao suddenly stopped smiling, "You should go see my sister. You two can help each other more. She can find soul changers, build an army of demon slayers, and request supplies from the Long Bin Society. You help."

"How can I help her?" Mu Xingqiu has always kept this matter in mind. The use is mutual and the help is mutual, so he is not surprised at all by the conditions proposed by the high Taoist priests, so he wants to ask the princess Hope for something.

"A lot. When your army is established, it will be the most powerful force among mortals, even more powerful than Longbinhui. With your support, the Fu family will be more honest. My sister wants to marry the heir to the throne. It’s easy.”

"Okay, I can see her in a few days."

"Why wait a few days? The current situation is changing rapidly. You have to do everything early. Why not do it tonight? Mr. Pan has already made arrangements for the place where he invited you last time." Xin Youtao smiled and said, " The joy that the ruse had succeeded was not concealed at all.
