Talk about the world of mortals in detail
Chapter 679 The illusion is finally shattered
The words of his son and minister made the old emperor nod slightly.
"If you pass on the message, you will say that I will stay at the temple in person before the end of the year, and I will drive to Hualong Temple tomorrow."
"yes!"
The eunuch agreed, and the emperor glanced at the officials in the palace again and took both dragon scales in his hands.
"Retreat from the court. Mao'er will come with me."
"My son, I obey!"
The emperor nodded and left first, while King Xin hurriedly followed, but the old emperor in front stopped after taking a few steps and looked back at Guan Xinrui over there.
"Guan Aiqing is coming too!"
No matter how much Guan Xinrui pretended to be restrained, he really couldn't hold back his surprise at this moment. A smile appeared on his face and he hurriedly agreed, and his voice couldn't help but get louder because of his excitement.
"I obey the decree——"
Amidst the respectful greetings of the ministers, today's morning court ended, some were happy and some were sad.
——
That night, a mysterious evil wind blew in the northern sky. King Toad and his daughter detoured to some places, and after trekking, they arrived at the capital of Daegu.
But at this moment, Chanqin suddenly looked towards the north of the city.
"Um?"
The Toad King heard the sound and turned to look at his daughter behind him.
"What's wrong?"
Chanqin hesitated and shook his head.
"It's nothing, just meeting an insignificant person."
For Chanqin, no promises must be made, and even if they are made, they must be made to friends and philanthropists. People like Chai Wang, who are just in the world, are just making use of them, and naturally they can't talk about caring.
It's just that she noticed Chai Wang's aura at a glance just now, but she was not interested in looking for him.
However, Chanqin's words caught the attention of the Big Toad King. He glanced over there and then looked at his daughter.
"What on earth happened?"
"It's nothing. It seems that the Jianghu man I mentioned has also come to the capital. Dad, that man is not a good person in mortal terms. Don't worry about it."
The Big Toad King shook his head.
"It will be tomorrow for you and me to present our scales. Now that we have met, we might as well go and have a look."
"I don't want to see that kind of person. He is the same as Magistrate Haiyu. It makes people uncomfortable just to look at him."
The Big Toad King smiled without saying anything, and took Toad Qin downwards. The demonic aura on his body became weaker and weaker at this moment, in order to avoid trouble.
To the north of the capital, Xue Daoren, Zhong Baotou, and Chai Wang, who was possessed by Zhang, had also arrived and stayed in a relatively ordinary inn.
The long journey was accelerated with the help of Taoist Xue's magic spells. Perhaps even if Taoist Xue had some ability to rush, he would not be so exaggerated in the past.
But since he used the "Fire Dragon Charm" that night and heard it at home and understood it, Taoist Xue seemed to have understood some wonderful methods.
This magical method is one of them. It seems to be the same as the memory of the previous life like the Fire Dragon Talisman. With this power, he arrived at the capital of Daegu from the North Sea in just a few days, only half a day later than King Xin and Guan Xinrui.
It's just that when they arrived in the capital, Taoist Xue had already figured out that Guan Xinrui was in the palace. The emperor's aura was very important, and they didn't dare to approach him at will.
It was already late at night, and while the living were mentally exhausted and resting, the dead were getting more and more energetic. In the inn room, "Chai Wang" who had been sitting in front of the window suddenly spoke.
"I can feel him. My husband is right here."
Taoist Xue and Zhong Xingwen, who each occupied half of the bed one behind the other, opened their eyes one after another and drove hard for several days. From noon to midnight, they could only barely regain some energy.
"You mean he left the palace?"
After hearing what Zhong Captou said, "Chai Wang" turned to look at him and shook his head.
"I don't know, I just feel that way."
Taoist Xue immediately sat up from the bed, walked to the table, picked up his magical instrument, copper coins, and shook it in his hand.
"Wow!"
The copper coin showed that Taoist Xue nodded slightly.
"It's definitely here!"
Zhong Xingwen also stood up and put on his coat, looked at the person by the window and couldn't help but say.
"If possible, Zhong still hopes that you will exercise some restraint. I hope that he will be punished by the laws of Daegu, so that he will not only die a good death but also be ruined. Only in this way can we alert the world and spur the officials."
Chai Wang just looked at Zhong Xingwen, but said nothing. Then with a slight jump, he floated out of the window.
Taoist Xue and Zhong Xingwen looked at each other and jumped out of the window one after another.
——
King Xin had already returned to King Xin's Mansion in the capital. In order to avoid suspicion, Guan Xinrui naturally did not go to the palace, but stayed at the capital post station.
Although the courtiers almost all thought that Magistrate Haiyu was from the Xinwang faction, they still had to do something superficial.
In the room of the inn, Guan Xinrui opened the window and put wine and food on the table. Even though it was cold and windy, he was drinking warm wine and eating side dishes, chanting poems and composing poems to the moon, and he was very interested.
"If a man does not show his ambition, he will be born with an eight-foot body. I am a talented person, how can I spread my wings like a sparrow? Hehehehehe."
Today's Guan Xinrui can be said to be full of ambition. He was rewarded with a thousand taels of gold by the emperor as soon as he came out of the palace.
More importantly, he has been named Beihai County Sheriff, and the original Beihai County Sheriff has been transferred to another place. The imperial edict will be issued later.
And Guan Xinrui can be sure that he will be transferred to the capital and become a court official in the future!
Ordinary small county magistrates, let alone those without talent and background, even if they are outstanding, it will take them many years and many joints to reach this position.
But what about me? As soon as he entered the capital, he was already promoted very high. He showed his face in front of the emperor, was remembered by the emperor, and was regarded as a confidant by His Highness King Xin.
In the future, it is a sure thing that he will go straight to officialdom and have a prosperous career!
Guan Xinrui thought of the wonderful thing and couldn't help but drink another drink. The emperor also said that he had to go with him when he went to Hualong Temple. Tsk tsk tsk, how wonderful!
Then Guan Xinrui couldn't help but fantasize again. He heard that the fireworks place in Beijing is the most wonderful. Unfortunately, it is inconvenient this time, but there will be many opportunities in the future!
"grown ups."
Guan Xinrui, who was drinking, was startled by a slightly familiar call. He looked inside the room, and before he had time to put down his glass, he walked to the door and listened. There seemed to be no sound outside.
"grown ups."
There was another call, Guan Xinrui frowned, subconsciously walked to the window and looked out, but found nothing either.
But when Guan Xinrui turned around, he found that there was another person in the room. This sudden appearance shocked him, and some of the wine in his glass shook out.
"Ah? Who? Come"
Guan Xinrui, who was about to call people in, saw the person in the room clearly, quickly stopped his voice, and stared at the person in front of him with wide eyes.
After Chai Wang was possessed by Zhang, he didn't have a good meal at all, and his body didn't get much rest. His soul was also suppressed by the ghost's aura, and the Yang Fire became weaker and weaker.
In addition, he was injured by a tiger, so Chai Wang was almost thin and out of shape at this moment, and Guan Xinrui almost didn't recognize him.
"Don't you remember me?"
The voice of "Chai Wang" had a faint feeling, and Guan Xinrui breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's you. You actually found your way to the capital. Why don't you go back to Haiyu County and wait for me? By the way, is it done? Why did you end up like this? Is it not done?"
At this moment, Guan Xinrui's expression changed slightly. If things didn't work out, it would be big bad news for him who was in the beginning of his career.
"Chai Wang" just looked at Guan Xinrui.
"Did anything happen?"
Guan Xinrui frowned, something was wrong with Chai Wang today.
"What's the matter? Of course it's Zhong Xingwen. If he had found out that I had been married a long time ago, it would have been troublesome. You claim to be good at martial arts, could it be that you made a mistake?"
Guan Xinrui said a little angrily, and pressed the wine glass on the table with a bang.
"Chai Wang" smiled at this moment, and his heart became darker and darker, and the feeling this smile gave Guan Xinrui made him feel a little flustered.
Fortunately, Chai Wang's words immediately made Guan Xinrui lose all other feelings at the next moment, leaving only joy.
"No misses."
"It's good that you didn't miss! I have been named the governor of Beihai County, and you will be indispensable by then!"
Guan Xinrui said with a smile, but the murderous intention was gradually rising in his heart. Now that he is in power, he has many opportunities to cultivate more obedient cronies. Chai Wang knows too much, so he must find a way to get rid of him!
"But sir, Capt. Zhong is a just man and dedicated to his duties. Don't you think it would be a pity to kill him?"
Guan Xinrui has been pretending for so long, from Haiyu County to the capital, to his wife, to his father-in-law, to the prince, and to the emperor, but now he finally reveals his true colors.
With a sinister smile on his face, he looked at Chai Wang.
"Isn't the purpose of life in this world just to get ahead and have fun? In order to have a prosperous career, I can even do anything to get rid of my wife, not to mention arresting the head of a small county government. They are all stepping stones in my career. I will serve them in the future. Just burn some paper!”
"You Chai Wang can actually ask such a question. If I hadn't known who you were, Guan would have thought you had changed your gender, hahahahaha."
Guan Xinrui smiled, but saw tears of blood streaming from the corners of Chai Wang's eyes.
Although he has been shaken for a long time, and although many people have told the truth, Zhang still has the beautiful memories of the past in his mind, and always has the last trace of unrealistic fantasy.
Until this moment, the dream was truly shattered, blood and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, and the resentment and hostility in his body continued to rise.
Guan Xinrui looked at Chai Wang in front of him in shock, fear rising in his heart.
"You, what's wrong with you? You"
"Husband, it turns out you really killed me."
Guan Xinrui felt intense fear in his heart and immediately shouted loudly.
"Someone's coming - someone's coming - there's an assassin - uh"
Halfway through the words, Guan Xinrui was strangled by the neck by "Chai Wang", and his feet lifted off the ground while trembling.
"Uh-huh."
At this moment, Guan Xinrui looked at Chai Wang in tears, and saw his former wife in a trance, and what followed was an even stronger fear.
"Bang~"
The door was broken open from the outside, and the inn officers and soldiers rushed in.
"There is an assassin!" "Let go, sir!"
Chai Wang just glanced at the officers and soldiers, and immediately several of them flew out.
In a short period of time, Guan Xinrui was on the verge of death. In the intense pain and fear, he even felt like he was out of his body. Because of this out of body, he saw clearly that the person pinching him was not Chai Wang, but... A terrifying ghost
But it was also at this moment that Guan Xinrui heard an angry shout on the streets of the capital.
"You dare to harm people in the capital!"
Huh~
A ray of divine light flashed across, and an iron lock flew from the street.
"Bang~"
"Uh-"
Li Gui was hit by the chain and flew out directly from the door of the inn. Guan Xinrui also fell to the ground and lost consciousness.
That sound came from the Yin Si who was patrolling the capital at night. He noticed that the evil ghost was harming people and immediately chose to take action.
The chain not only knocked away the ghost, but also chased it away, through the entire inn, and towards the other side of the street, as if it was about to entangle it immediately.
Just at this moment, a silver ruler suddenly appeared on the way.
"Dang~"
The divine light collided, ripples formed, and the silver ruler entangled the chain, allowing the evil ghost to escape.
This scene was watched by Big Toad King and Toad Qin who had just fallen from the sky not long ago.
"Hey, Dad, a battle between gods and men?"
A look of surprise appeared on Big Toad King's face.
"This is no ordinary god!"
The ruler and the owner who appeared with it were not ordinary people, but perhaps no one knew them in this place, but by chance, the Big Toad King knew them.
That's the priest of Yunlai Temple!
