Ruins of the past

The leader of the Taoist priests was Fayuan Taoist priest who was injured by Li Changqing before. He looked at Li Changqing with a sneer and said: "Master Li, demon dyeing is not a trivial matter. Even if it is not for yourself, I, Tianshi Sect, do it for Qingyang County. The many people in the country should also be careful and perform exorcisms for you."

After Li Changqing pondered for a moment, he suddenly burst into laughter and slowly unsheathed the demon-slaying knife in his hand: "I am on an errand under the orders of the emperor. No one except the superior of the Demon Suppression Department and the emperor can stop me from handling the case. You want to take me Just do it yourself.”

While he was talking, he had already taken out two pills from his arms and drank them. The outline of his whole body instantly swelled up. As his muscles expanded, veins popped out, bursts of heat emitted, and his eyes became even more intense. It was all white, with no pupils visible.

Wave after wave of substantive coercion came towards everyone present. Both Chu Qiguang and Fa Yuan felt a chill in their hearts, feeling as if they had a knife pointed at their throats.

"presumptuous!"

At this moment, a low shout came from outside the door, and Abbot Chenzhu was seen walking into the courtyard, with his right hand open, and a roll of Tianshi Talismans floating on his palm, emitting bursts of golden light.

Around Abbot Chenzhu, a total of three soldiers wearing golden armor, holding golden spears, two feet tall, slightly illusive and hazy figures rose into the air, flew in the air, and surrounded Li Changqing and others.

Li Changqing's face turned ugly: "Dharma Protector General? Are you the abbot of Qingyang Temple?"

At this moment, Chu Qiguang was also staring closely at the talisman in the abbot's hand, observing the power of this thing.

According to Qiao Zhi, talismans are something that can only be made by those who are strong in Taoism. They are true supernatural powers.

Although Li Changqing's five realms are powerful, they are still in the realm of humans.

According to Chu Qiguang's own understanding, the five realms of martial arts are still flesh and blood, carbon-based life, and the power mastered by those who have entered the Tao has surpassed this category.

At this moment, Abbot Chenzhu activated the talisman of Qingyang County. Now he can summon three guardian generals to fight. Each one has the power equivalent to a warrior in the fifth realm. They are not afraid of life and death, are not afraid of pain, and can fly into the air. Fight within a few feet, and after being killed and fed for a period of time, you will be intact again.

Abbot Chenzhu looked at Li Changqing and said: "Li Changqing! Are you still thinking of committing murder in broad daylight? You are indeed affected by the devil. Just follow me back to the temple and I will personally resolve it for you."

The next moment, three guardian generals were seen fighting around Li Changqing. The golden light collided with the light of the sword in Li Changqing's hand. In an instant, it was like wind and thunder, making a series of loud noises.

With a bang, Li Changqing pushed open the courtyard wall and tried to rush out, but he saw three Dharma Protector Generals flying into the air to pursue them. They chased him like lightning, and the three golden spears brought thunder and thunder, killing Li Changqing in a dangerous situation.

Finally, with a loud bang, Li Changqing was hit hard on the back by the spear of a Dharma Protector General like a fly, and fell directly to the ground.

He roared angrily, and just as he was about to stand up, the other two guardian gods also hit his shoulders and buttocks with golden guns in their hands, holding him down.

Li Changqing roared several times in succession, and the muscles all over his body undulated and swelled, like a furious monster, but he was still unable to break through the suppression of the three guardian generals. He was pinned firmly to the ground.

Taoist Master Fayuan laughed and walked up: "Master Li, let's go then?"

Li Changqing looked at Fa Yuan hatefully, and then glanced at Chu Qiguang in the distance: "How many days can you keep me trapped? Let's wait and see when I come out."

Watching the group of people leaving, Chu Qiguang thought in his heart: 'This talisman is really magical. The power of the Taoist temple is indeed unfathomable, no wonder it can compete with the imperial power chamber. Find an opportunity to ask Abbot Chenzhu if I can buy some talismans or higher-end elixirs...'

…

Li Changqing was confiscated with the demon-slaying knife and the elixirs on his body, and was immediately locked into the small dark room of the Taoist temple.

This was originally a Taoist temple used to imprison demons. Li Changqing couldn't break out without weapons and elixirs.

He simply sat down cross-legged and waited for the time to pass.

At the end of the day, the Taoist temple gave him a bowl of water and a steamed bun, which made him yell and curse.

For a strong martial artist, the stronger the body, the greater the consumption of muscles and internal organs, and the more they eat.

As a fifth-level warrior, Li Changqing naturally consumed far more than ordinary people. In the past seven days, he was almost starved to death. His physical body and stamina also declined due to this, and his martial arts also declined.

…

When Chu Qiguang came to Wu's house, Wu Wei and Hao Wen immediately greeted him. They were all shocked by the news that Li Changqing had been taken away by the Taoist temple.

Hao Wen exclaimed with a look of amazement: "Nephew Chu Xian, I have seen how you can turn your hands into clouds and your hands into rain."

Wu Wei looked at Chu Qiguang in shock, never expecting that the other party could actually temporarily kick out Li Changqing of the Demon Suppression Division.

At this moment, Chu Qiguang's weight in their hearts was different, and he convinced them far more than before.

Wu Wei quickly asked: "While Li Changqing is taken away, what should we do next?"

Hao Wen also stared closely at Chu Qiguang, expecting the other party to come up with some amazing tricks.

"First write a letter to Mr. Wu Ge and tell him everything about our situation." Chu Qiguang said: "Secondly, please ask the two of you to send more manpower to me. I have some things to investigate."

Although they were a little disappointed that Chu Qiguang didn't reveal any amazing comeback methods, the two of them still sent him manpower out of trust.

Wu Wei found a housekeeper named Wu Lu here, and Hao Yongtai took the initiative to help from the Hao family.

When Wu Lu first came, he was still a little unconvinced by Chu Qiguang, a small second-level warrior. Although there was no direct confrontation, there was still a sense of obedience.

But Chu Qiguang has dealt with too many such bastards, and Wu Wei is on his side.

So he randomly sent a cat demon to frame the other party, and found an excuse to break one of the other party's legs. The next steward of the Wu family who was sent immediately became more serious and obeyed Chu Qiguang's words.

With their cooperation, and the assistance of Chu Qiguang's own cat demons and dog demons, Chu Qiguang started directly from the silver shop and immediately found out many problems of the Ding family.

After all, Chu Qiguang was a man whose knowledge and methods far exceeded most people of this era. The various kinds of flowers he had seen in modern times were much more numerous and complicated than in this ancient society.

From the silver shop, he discovered that the Ding family had gone through a series of operations and bought a large amount of calligraphy, paintings, and antiques to be sent to the capital every year. The value of the gifts each year ranged from 30,000 to 50,000 taels, which was obviously some kind of transfer of benefits.

And if the Ding family is willing to give away 35,000 taels of silver, he may earn more than 80,000 to 100,000 taels every year.

"Let's find out where the Ding family got so much money. There must be something wrong."

…

At the Wu family's practice ground, Chu Qiguang was practicing with two teenage boys and girls, looking happy while talking and laughing.

Chu Qiguang and Hao Yongtai investigated the Ding family during this period, and also took the opportunity to get closer to Wu Wei and get into the Wu family's circle.

He now comes to Wu's house several times a day. On the one hand, it is convenient to deploy manpower, and on the other hand, he feels that Wu's house is safer.

At this moment, Hao Xiangtong was standing under the shade of a distant tree, looking at Chu Qiguang and the girl talking happily. He clenched his fists unconsciously. His whole body was shrouded in the shade of the tree, and it seemed that he was about to turn into darkness. .

‘What does it mean that Chu Qiguang is so close to Wu Qingchen? ! ’
