I asked you to play the dungeon, but you are here to raise the BOSS?

Ming Dynasty Kyoto·Shuntian Mansion

"I am a member of the Imperial Guard of thousands of households. I led the people out to perform official duties. Now I have returned to Beijing to resume my duties."

Zuo Qianhu handed over the official letter, pointed to the team behind him, and said in a deep voice.

Among the people present, Ah Jiu and Yao Guangxiao were both much higher than him.

Lin Xuan, the relegated immortal certified by Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang, is also a super-class person.

However, these identities are either shady or too abstract...

This mediocre Jinyiwei Qianhu is better to use.

"The official has verified that everything is correct. Sir Qian Hu, please come!"

The gatekeeper did not dare to neglect, carefully checked the official letter, and stood aside respectfully.

Although he was of the same rank as Zuo Qianhu, they were the notorious Fusi Jinyiwei Qianhu in Beizhen.

Most of the emperors of the Ming Dynasty were a bit neurotic. They were suspicious all day long and were always worried that unruly people would try to harm them.

As a result, Jin Yiwei's authority was ridiculously large.

Often, "prisoners" could be imprisoned in prison without even needing to show their driving license (arrest warrant), where they could be executed, forced to confess, and executed all at once.

This completely non-public way of handling cases makes it impossible for victims to redress their grievances.

As a result, ordinary people subconsciously became elegant and easy-going when they saw Jin Yiwei, for fear of accidentally offending him.

"Thank you very much!"

Zuo Qianhu clasped his fists and said, "Zuo is not in the capital these days. Could something big happen?"

"Big deal? The imperial examination took place a few days ago, but it has nothing to do with us... Oh, there's one more thing!"

The city gate guard suddenly thought of it and said seriously: "Starting yesterday, the Holy Master asked the Imperial Master to hold a Dharma meeting in the imperial city to pray for the mountains, rivers and the country, which will last for half a month. All officials in the capital are not allowed to be absent, and we hope that thousands of households will know this."

"Thanks for letting me know."

Zuo Qianhu was slightly startled: "It lasts for half a month? Don't you even go to the morning court?"

"Exactly!"

The city gate guard looked at the sky and said: "Today's Dharma gathering has begun. Lord Qianhu will go to the imperial city and see."

"I understand."

Zuo Qianhu thanked him, led everyone into the city gate, and said in a deep voice: "In the capital, it is inconvenient to gather people to do things. Please give me your permission, princess."

"My Ming Dynasty has been like this, but this centipede spirit still has the nerve to call himself the Mountain and River Society Map to pray for blessings..."

Ah Jiu felt a little tight in her chest and hummed softly: "Let's do this. Lin Banxian, Sister Longnu and I will go to the imperial city to deal with the centipede spirit. The rest of the people will be commanded by Young Master Yao. Young Master has a clever plan and has his own plans."

As a princess, bringing Lin Xuan and Ao Xue into the imperial city was nothing.

But bringing hundreds of royal guards in with him seemed a little wrong in name.

If they were treated as an attack on the imperial city and fought against the imperial army in front of Pudu Cihang, it would be too rough...

"I take my orders."

Fu Tianchou discussed with his two daughters for a while and then said, "The lower official is now an imperial prisoner and should be sent to prison according to the regulations. Can the young master do something good from now on?"

"There is something about the imperial prison in Fusi, Beizhen. Mr. Fu, I'm afraid it won't be a good experience if you go in there."

"Besides, in this situation, Jin Yiwei's side is not the focus. There is no need to let Master Fu suffer in vain."

Yao Guangxiao's eyes flashed: "Zuo Qianhu and you can't do anything right now. The random gathering of so many Jin Yiwei can easily arouse suspicion. You might as well go with me."

After coming out of the corpse hall, Yao Guangxiao revealed his identity to Zuo Qianhu.

The shocks he had received back and forth during this period were too great, and Zuo Qianhu's threshold had increased a lot, and he was in a semi-numb state.

Even if he knew Yao Guangxiao's true identity, he was just perfunctorily shocked and then started busy with other things.

On the contrary, it made the old monk feel a little inferior.

"Even a humble official is worried about this..."

Zuo Qianhu said solemnly: "May I ask what master's plan is?"

"During the Yongle Dynasty, I served as the abbot of Qingshou Temple for more than ten years. I also made some preparations and left some backup."

Yao Guangxiao said lazily: "I didn't expect that those things would come in handy as soon as I came to the capital. It's really wonderful!"

"I accept my order from my humble position!"

Zuo Qianhu hesitated for a moment: "The princess will deal with the centipede spirit herself, don't we need to protect her?"

"The centipede spirit can transform into a dragon. Even I am no match for it, so don't get in the way if you have this ability."

Yao Guangxiao flicked his sleeves: "We will seal off the inner city later, and the burden is not light. You should take care of yourself first."

"I understand this humble position..., huh?"

Zuo Qianhu was horrified: "Me, a hundred of us individually blockade the inner city?"

"Hmph! When Lao Na was compiling the deeds of great virtuous teachers in his later years, he also made hundreds of Yellow Turban Hercules Talismans."

"Wrap your heads in a yellow scarf later, and activate this talisman again. You can transform into a yellow scarf warrior, who can easily fight against tens of thousands of elite soldiers."

"Our rear is the Forbidden Imperial City. The Shenji Battalion does not dare to use firearms. The other five military camps and the Shenshu Battalion are not afraid!"

Yao Guangxiao smiled and said: "The sky is dead, and Huang Tian is here to stand. Just hearing the name of this 'yellow scarf warrior' is a great good omen!"

"..."

Zhang Jiao died immediately after the uprising, and the Yellow Turban Army did not last more than a year before being suppressed.

What kind of auspicious sign is this...

The omen is almost there!

Ah Jiu puffed up her cheeks and restrained herself from complaining.

"I admire the master's ability to recognize good omens..."

Lin Xuan looked at Yao Guangxiao: "In that case, let's go separate ways?"

"Well, since the demon king has been planning for so long, the capital must be full of his spies, and we can't hide it from him when we enter the city."

"If he is prepared to strike first, our losses will be a bit big."

Yao Guangxiao hesitated: "It's not easy inside the imperial city either. I can't do anything now. You must be more careful and protect Her Majesty the Empress."

"The little monk is right. Now the demonic energy inside and outside the imperial city is so strong that we must be careful."

An old and soft voice sounded, and a tall, white-haired Taoist holding a broom suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

"Hmm?"

Yao Guangxiao's pupils shrank slightly and frowned.

"It's not a big problem. The little monk can't go, but the old Taoist can go to join in the fun."

The old Taoist glanced at everyone, lowered his head, and swept the leaves at the gate of the city: "Everyone do your own thing, that's it."

The broom rose and fell, and formed a series of extremely tough invisible air nets.

The air nets piled up layer by layer, turning into an air wall like crystal.

There was silence all around, as if even the wind and birdsong were swept away by him.

"What is the name of this Taoist priest?"

Zuo Qianhu snorted coldly, stretched out his hand to hold the embroidered spring knife at his waist, and waited for it.

"We are one of us, Qian Hu... Qian Hu, please don't draw your sword!"

Ajiu hurriedly stopped the suicidal behavior of Zuo Qian Hu, and jumped to Zhang Sanfeng: "When did the master come? Why are you sweeping the floor?"

"I came here after I figured it out. I should have been here two days ago."

Zhang Sanfeng smiled and said: "I heard that there was an old monk who liked to sweep the floor before, but I didn't think much of it. Now I sweep it myself, and I have realized some truths, which are quite interesting."

"Yeah, I seem to have heard of this allusion, is it 'Always wipe it frequently, don't let it cause dust'?"

"That's not it."

Zhang Sanfeng looked at Yao Guangxiao thoughtfully: "What I realized is that the floor will never be clean if you sweep it one by one. It's better to use some strength to sweep it well, and you can be safe for a long time."

As he spoke, Zhang Sanfeng raised the broom and slapped it heavily on the ground.

The layers of air nets exploded as quickly as possible and swept in all directions.

Silently, all the fallen leaves within a radius of hundreds of meters turned into dust and disappeared.

"..."

Zuo Qianhu and Fu Tianchou looked at each other and were speechless.

"This principle is good, but I can't learn it..."

Ajiu had a few black lines on his forehead and shook his head repeatedly.

"Master Zhang is very knowledgeable and his teachings are easy to understand. I am grateful for your advice."

Yao Guangxiao was silent for a moment, his brows gradually relaxed, and he smiled: "Since Master Zhang has such an idea, I am satisfied today and will ask Master Zhang for advice tomorrow."

"People like you are too thoughtful. I can only talk to you in a roundabout way. It's a headache."

Zhang Sanfeng waved his hand: "It's still the same saying, 'Everyone should do their own things well'. Don't ask me for advice. I can't teach you."

"Hahaha! Just do as Master Zhang said."

Yao Guangxiao laughed, rolled up his monk robe, and walked out first: "Everyone follow me."

"..."

Zuo Qianhu and Fu Tianchou were startled, and hurriedly led their own people to chase after them.

In a moment, only Lin Xuan and his four companions were left at the place.

"Let's go too."

Zhang Sanfeng threw away the broom in his hand and sighed: "I've been feeling very depressed along the way. If I hadn't agreed to meet up with you, I would have already entered the imperial city and fought with those monsters."

"The real person still acts casually."

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "Okay, there's no time to lose, Ajiu will lead the way."

"Well, everyone follow me."

Ajiu nodded and used his Qinggong to rush forward.

***

"This door is not open all year round, and there are no guards around. It's quite close to the place where the evil monk holds a ceremony."

After a moment, Ajiu stopped in front of the majestic palace gate and slowly adjusted his breathing.

"Xiaobai, take a look."

Lin Xuan glanced at Ao Xue: "The real master should be here, right?"

"Yes, there are several auras of big monsters inside, which should be no weaker than the tree monster."

"There is also a vast aura, which should be a mixture of monster power and Buddha power. It is difficult to judge the specific cultivation level."

Ao Xue blinked and hesitated: "The monsters in the Dharma Assembly should be less than 30%, and the vast majority are real court officials. If you take action, you will inevitably hurt them by mistake."

"Those who have the backbone and don't want to go along with the monsters are dead, and those who have the ability to improve the country's fortune are also dead."

Lin Xuan coldly Leng said: "Those who are still alive are naturally those who have no backbone and no ability. They only know how to be greedy for money and engage in party struggles all day long, and they don't even bother to pay attention to demons. They are not worth dying."

"Huh? Now that you put it, it seems to make sense."

Ao Xue's eyes lit up and smiled, "Then I won't save them."

"We don't have much money now, so we should save them if we can, and let them spend money to redeem their lives later..."

Lin Xuan pondered and said, "When we get enough money, we will throw them to the people in the city for disposal, which can be regarded as waste utilization."

"Okay..."

Ao Xue was stunned for a long time and nodded.

"It's you who are not a good person..."

Zhang Sanfeng laughed and said, "Every time I meet Fellow Daoist Lin, I feel a lot better for no reason."

"I'm still a little nervous."

Ajiu gathered up her messy hair, her expression a little serious: "Mr. Lin, after we go in, there is no turning back, right?"

"Yes. Although Emperor Chongzhen is your father, he cannot pass the throne to you."

"In any case, your ascension to the throne is considered an act of usurping the throne, and all the literati and scholars in the world will criticize you."

"The Qing soldiers, the righteous army, the imperial border troops, and even the armies of the kings should also rush to the capital in an endless stream, and claim the name of orthodoxy by upholding justice."

Lin Xuan nodded: "In other words, taking this step will be deserted by everyone and the whole world will be your enemy."

"In fact, I think so too."

Ajiu sighed softly, a little absent-minded.

"It's not like the whole world is our enemy."

Ao Xue comforted, "At least we still have a few of us."

"Sister Bai is really good at comforting people..."

A Jiu glanced at Ao Xue, "But what we did today was right, wasn't it?"

"Well, the Ming Dynasty is in a state of decay, the world is in tatters, and the people follow the bandits because they are hungry and have no land to farm."

"He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world, and the hearts of the people are food. What the Ming Dynasty lacks now is the hearts of the people."

"If this continues, even if there are no demons in the chaotic world, the country will surely perish."

Lin Xuan nodded and said, "Only by destroying and then rebuilding can there be a glimmer of hope and create another century of great fortune."

"That's the truth."

Zhang Sanfeng stroked his beard and said, "But if we watch the demons and do nothing, I'm afraid the country will also perish..."

"I understand. Since we did the right thing, there's nothing to worry about."

A Jiu took a deep breath, unsheathed the Zhenwu Sword, and chopped it hard.

The sword light fell like flowing water, and the heavy palace door bolt broke.

Ajiu pushed hard, and the two doors opened to the left and right, revealing a gap large enough for several people to pass through side by side.

"Who dares..., huh? Princess!"

The imperial guards inside and outside the imperial city heard the noise, knowing that something was wrong, and gathered around.

Seeing Ajiu's appearance, the guards became even more flustered, not knowing what to do.

"All retreat!"

Ajiu swung the Zhenwu sword, took a few steps forward, and her small boots stepped crisply on the bluestone slabs of the imperial city.

Things were irreversible, and the girl let out a breath of resoluteness.

"Bold!"

Just then, a middle-aged eunuch appeared in front of Ajiu: "Princess, you broke into the imperial city with a sword without being summoned, are you trying to do something wrong?"

The middle-aged eunuch was wearing a brocade robe, with a proud look in his eyes, and he looked powerful and noble.

In his every move, he seemed to be integrated with the world, exuding an unfathomable aura.

"The Lord Governor is here. Except for Princess Changping, all the others kneel down and wait for your punishment!"

Figures flashed everywhere, and more than ten eunuchs holding weapons surrounded the four people.

Each eunuch was restrained and deep, and obviously had a good cultivation.

"Oh, this eunuch leader is quite impressive."

Zhang Sanfeng was slightly startled and laughed: "Brother Lin, what is the origin of this group of people?"

"Since others call him the Lord Governor, he must be the eunuch Cao Huachun, the governor of the East Factory."

Lin Xuan's mind moved slightly, and he introduced casually.

This eunuch Cao began to accompany Zhu Youjian, who was still the Prince of Xin, when he was in his teens.

After Zhu Youjian was promoted to Emperor Chongzhen, he trusted and relied on him very much, and he was considered a confidant among confidants.

Now this guy should be the eunuch in charge of the imperial eunuch, the governor of the East Factory, and the general governor of the military affairs of the Beijing Camp.

Although not as powerful as Wei Zhongxian in the past, he is still a high-ranking official, and is also the prototype of Cao Zhengchun in "The World's Number One".

Perhaps due to this influence, his martial arts value has obviously improved a lot compared to the original work.

Probably on par with the quasi-celestial being, Sunflower Ancestor.

If he had encountered such a master in the first two copies, even if Lin Xuan tried his best, he might not have had much chance of winning.

Unfortunately, it is now the sixth copy, and times have changed...

It is difficult for such a master to make Lin Xuan feel pressure.

"So these eunuchs are from the East Factory."

Zhang Sanfeng said lightly: "It is not a good thing for eunuchs to interfere in politics and abuse power. Xiaojiu will lay off this factory later."

"Yes!"

Jiu smiled slightly, bowed and nodded.

"Well, ignore these clowns for now, let's go in."

Zhang Sanfeng waved his sleeves, motioned Jiu to lead the way, and walked forward.

"The real person also knows how to disgust people..."

Lin Xuan laughed secretly, and followed Ao Xue closely.

"How dare you! You old Taoist priest, you are about to die, and you still dare to speak rudely?"

Cao Huachun was angry, and his body turned into a shadow and appeared behind Zhang Sanfeng, and he slapped Zhang Sanfeng's shoulder with his right hand.

Zhang Sanfeng still swayed and walked forward carelessly.

Seeing that Cao Huachun's palm had already touched Zhang Sanfeng's shoulder.

Suddenly, the place where the two touched was slightly twisted, and a layer of ripples appeared.

"???"

Cao Huachun's eyes flashed with extreme doubt, and his body flew backwards into the air and landed exactly where it was.

"Supervisor, you have great light skills!"

"Supervisor, you have unparalleled skills in the world!"

The eunuchs were fascinated by it and praised it.

"Shut up!"

Cao Huachun's face flashed a trace of red, and he stretched out his hand and grasped it.

The sound of sword chanting sounded, and a soft sword as thin as a cicada's wing popped out from his belt and fell into his palm.

Cao Huachun rose and fell, and his body appeared in front of Zhang Sanfeng again, and his sword shook violently.

The sword light spread across the sky and the earth, and hundreds of spiral sword energies strangled Zhang Sanfeng like a violent storm.

"The old man has been sweeping the land for two days. It's rare that his temper has improved. You don't appreciate it."

Zhang Sanfeng sighed, flicked his sleeves, and the wind billowing from his sleeves swept away the sword energy in the sky.

In the collision of energy, Cao Huachun's body shook violently, and all the energy in his body was scattered.

In his shocked eyes, Zhang Sanfeng raised his right hand casually and slapped him in the face.

With a miserable groan, Cao Huachun was whipped into the air, like a huge top, passing through the layers of palace walls and disappearing from people's sight.

"No one can fight, let's all disperse."

Zhang Sanfeng retracted his palm, scratched his neck twice, and said calmly.

"This..., Governor! Governor, what's wrong with you?"

"Protect the Overlord!"

The eunuchs' faces turned pale as they looked at it, and they were shouting and running around for their lives.

In a moment, he disappeared without a trace.

"..."

Seeing the Dongchang eunuch's aggressive escape posture, a group of imperial guards quickly turned their heads and guarded the palace entrance without looking away, as if nothing happened.

"It is indeed the end of the dynasty, and there is not much blood left. No wonder they are defeated repeatedly."

Zhang Sanfeng glanced at Ao Xue: "Let's go in quickly. Miss Bai can take the apprentice."

"good."

Ao Xue nodded and reached out to hold Ajiu's white little hand.

The four of them walked forward a few more steps, passed through many pavilions, and came to a huge white jade square.

***

In the middle of the square is an altar suspended in the air.

A middle-aged monk with a solemn appearance is smiling like a Buddha holding flowers, sitting cross-legged on the altar and chanting sutras with his eyes closed.

Pudu Cihang is a national master, and his facial expressions are very good, and he looks sanctimonious.

The Buddha's light was rolling around his body, and there was no trace of evil.

More than a dozen monks wearing various robes surrounded Pudu Cihang, making weird postures.

The Buddha's light flows and turns into a blanket of light, supporting the altar and suspended in mid-air.

In front of the Golden Palace, under the leadership of Chongzhen, hundreds of Beijing officials were facing the altar, praying devoutly.

Along with everyone's prayers, wisps of luck escaped from everyone's bodies and penetrated into the canopy of Pudu Cihang.

As a result, Pudu Cihang smiled even more happily.

"The National Master is the living Buddha. With the help of the National Master, I can revive the Ming Dynasty and protect our country...huh?"

At this moment, in Chongzhen's surprised eyes.

Cao Huachun drew a huge parabola in the air and hit Pudu Cihang on the altar.

"No rudeness!"

A great guardian demon beside the altar roared angrily, jumped into the air, stood in front of Cao Huachun, and blocked it with both hands.

In the sound of a huge collision, one person and one demon spit out blood at the same time, falling to the ground like a rolling gourd, looking sluggish.

Being distracted by Cao Huachun, the bodies of Chongzhen and all the civil and military officials trembled at the same time, and their expressions were slightly relaxed, showing a little fatigue.

"Your Majesty, it seems that Princess Changping has brought several masters here to ruin your Majesty's affairs."

A nun dressed as a fox demon came to Pudu Cihang and whispered: "How about the slave family seduces all the officials, and the king goes and kills them?"

"It's so whimsical. That little girl can also ruin my good deeds?"

Pudu Cihang opened his eyes: "Ignore it."

"Eunuch Cao! I asked the imperial master to recite sutras to protect the country. What trouble are you making?"

In a moment, Chongzhen had already reacted, pointed at Cao Huachun, and scolded with a livid face.

"Old... I know my sin, please be merciful to Lord Long Live!"

Cao Huachun subconsciously glanced at Pudu Cihang, barely supported himself, knelt down, and kowtowed.

He was also very desperate when something like this happened...

You can't say that you were slapped by someone, right?

Thinking of his identity as governor, Cao Huachun gritted his teeth and chose to take it.

"Have mercy? You missed the imperial master's ritual and you are a sinner of our Ming Dynasty!"

Chongzhen snorted: "Please ask the Imperial Master to punish me."

"This has nothing to do with Eunuch Cao. There are heretics who are causing trouble and want to ruin my fortune."

Pudu Cihang was silent for a few seconds and shouted: "Since you are here, why don't you come out and see me?"

The Buddha's light flashed again, and the demons followed the altar and fell back to the ground.

As if sensing Pudu Cihang's anger, the altar emits a dazzling Buddha light.

Like a giant light bulb, it covers the entire White Jade Square.

"Are you willing to give up?"

Lin Xuan smiled and appeared in front of Pudu Cihang with Ah Jiu and others.

This altar is quite thoughtful.

It was actually Pudu Cihang who personally used the demonic power to take his men away.

Being the boss is not easy...

Of course, this also shows that he is indeed a master and can be so willful.

"Why did Changping bring people here?"

Chongzhen was startled, with a look of surprise in his eyes.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Chongzhen closed his mouth and chose to wait and see.

"Bold! The protector of the country and the national master Pudu Cihang are here. Why don't you kneel down?"

Seeing Pudu Cihang's calm expression, the nun clasped her hands together and said coldly.

"Bold! Emperor Taizu personally conferred Lin Banxian and Wudang Patriarch Zhang Zhenren here. How can we allow you, a vixen, to yell here!"

Ah Jiu's face showed a cold expression: "Don't back down yet!"

"Uh, how do you know?"

The nun was startled and said calmly.

"I'm just guessing, aren't banshees generally foxes?"

"You..."

The nun was stunned, and seemed to want to say something.

"Shame on you!"

Pudu Cihang glanced at the nun and said coldly.

The nun screamed suddenly, and her body flew more than ten meters away, falling to the ground half dead.

"You are so powerful, this monster naturally has nowhere to hide."

"I thought this monster had grown a lot after being with me for a long time, but I didn't expect it to be like this."

Pudu Cihang made a Buddhist seal with his hands, with a hint of compassion, and sighed: "I am Pudu Cihang, and today I want to enlighten the outsiders and promote Buddhism."
