Chapter 324: Livid Compared with the previous Jinping County, the capital city is undoubtedly a hundred times more prosperous and bustling. There was a lot of traffic at the city gate, with countless people coming and going, but at this moment, even the busiest messenger couldn't help but stop and turn around to look at the group of people on the road. The first to come was a tall horse, on which sat a tall warrior wearing a conical hat, and a huge wolf head hung next to the saddle. Behind him, there were two stone horses coming, with a Taoist priest sitting on their backs. Everyone in the capital knows about these two stone horses. However, the stone horse that was once unruly and ran wildly on the streets of the downtown area was now extremely docile. It took slow and heavy steps and carried the Taoist priest into the capital. Not to mention anything else, just the stone horse and the Taoist priest are enough to make people who come to Beijing for the first time feel magical and exclaim that they are gods. There were people whispering all the way. "Which deity is that?" "Where did this immortal come from? Why is there such a big wolf head hanging on the horse's back?"
"That's Lin Zhenren from Juxian Mansion. Some time ago, a monster invaded a city on earth. The people who escaped from Jinping County ran to the capital to ask the court to send troops. Lin Zhenren, Fan Tianshi, Pan Gong, and several Taoist priests from Zhenjian Palace went to exorcise the monster. I'm afraid he is back after exorcising the monster!" "Ah? Invading a human city? What kind of monster is so rampant?" "That's not all! I heard that once this monster entered the city, it ate up all the officials and soldiers. The civilians in the city were kept in pens like pigs, dogs, cows and sheep!" "Then is there still justice and law?" "Ugh……" "Don't gods care?" “Isn’t this a god?” "..." All kinds of whispers mixed together and no one could hear clearly. Everyone was shocked, stunned and curious. Born in this era, the world is becoming more and more chaotic, with more and more monsters and ghosts. I have heard a lot of stories about monsters, and even many people have seen the "foxes" in the city with their own eyes. I have also heard stories about getting rid of monsters, which may even happen in an alley not far from home or in a neighbor's house. But how many people have seen a monster exorcist bring back such a bloody and hideous monster head after getting rid of the monster? This is why some rumors and stories cannot be distinguished between truth and falsehood, and why some great people and extraordinary people cannot be distinguished between true and false. Not to mention that this monster is a big monster that can invade cities on earth and devour officials and soldiers. People kept gathering and watching in amazement. Many people simply followed the group. Some people were kneeling on the ground in the distance, thinking they were gods and sages. Some brave and curious people came up and asked Junior Brother Ma and Wan Xinrong who were walking behind: "Have the gods really returned from exorcising demons in Jinping County?" "Exactly!" Wan Xinrong was also riding on a horse and answered with his head tilted. "Is there only one monster? What abilities does it have? How did the gods get rid of the monster?" The man asked repeatedly when he saw that Wan Xinrong was friendly and easy to talk to.
"Of course there is more than one monster! This is only the leader of the monsters. There are more than 200 monsters of all sizes. We can't bring them back, so we took the head of this big monster and brought it back to the capital. This will reassure the people of Jinping County who have fled to the capital, and also let the monsters near the capital know that even if they have the power of Taoism and the world is not at peace, they should not make trouble at will!" Wan Xinrong said almost what they said: "As for how to get rid of the monster? Naturally, we will use our Taoist skills and magic with Master Lin, and the three Taoist priests from Zhenjian Palace will call in the heavenly soldiers and divine power to get rid of the monster together!" "hiss……" Some people were surprised and satisfied, finding it hard to imagine what the scene was like, while others were confused. "Didn't they say that the Taoist priests of the Guanxing Palace also invited the divine soldiers and generals, and that Master Fan was also outside the city day and night to invite the gods to help you? Have you seen the divine soldiers and generals they invited?" "I haven't seen him." Wan Xinrong said, then felt something was wrong and added, "Maybe he hasn't had time to come yet." "The two stone horses under Master Lin's seat? Are they the two that were at the entrance to the Astronomical Palace?" "Exactly." "Why would Master Lin ride the stone horse at the entrance of the Guanxing Palace? Could it be that the Taoist priest of the Guanxing Palace lent it to Master Lin to exorcise demons?" Even though these people were bold and curious, they only asked questions to Wan Xinrong and Junior Brother Ma. As for Master Lin who was sitting on the stone horse in front of them, he looked like a god. In their opinion, such gods can only be viewed from afar with awe, or worshipped, and cannot be offended at will. The warrior in front, who was riding a tall horse and wearing a bamboo hat with a wolf head hanging on it, had too much evil aura. The other female Taoist priest dressed in snow-white did not look easy to approach, so they only dared to ask questions to these few people. But when asked this question, Wan Xinrong could not answer it, nor did he dare to answer it easily. He just looked forward. But I never expected that the two stone horses in front actually stopped. The Taoist on horseback turned his head. Although the Taoist's expression was not majestic, the people who asked the questions could not help but feel awe in their hearts and quickly avoided his gaze. Only a calm voice was heard: "If the Taoist priests of the Guanxing Palace were truly virtuous and capable of exorcising demons, these two stone horses would not have left them." As soon as these words were spoken, there was an immediate uproar. The Guanxing Palace has been rooted in the capital for many years and has long been the largest and most authoritative palace in the hearts of the people. Even merchants from far away places, or even merchants from outside the region, who come to the capital, will go to the Guanxing Palace to burn incense. Why did Master Lin say this? But if you think about it carefully, in recent years, the Star Observation Palace has indeed been high and mighty, and there have been few demon-exorcising operations. The group gradually passed through the city gate. Even the guards at the door did not dare to stop him. They all bowed their heads and respectfully called him "real man" and "master". The streets in the city were lined with people. Someone else saw the group of people and the hanging wolf head, was surprised for a moment, and then left quickly. I don't know whether he went to call his relatives and friends to come and watch, or to report to the Ministry of Rites, or to the Astronomical Observatory. Luo Gong's eyes saw them all clearly, but he didn't say anything. Suddenly, there was another group of people in front. Looking closely, they saw a group of people dressed in coarse linen. When they saw them and the huge wolf head hanging on the saddle, they immediately knelt down on the street in the capital. There were sounds of wailing, thanking and compliments. The group of people also stopped immediately. These are the people of Jinping County.
Many Taoists lowered their heads, while the common people looked up and looked at each other. Lin Jue suddenly realized that the greatest significance of eliminating demons lies in these areas. …… All the way through the city. From the gate of the capital city, walking all the way to the South Gate, you will pass through the most prosperous and largest street in the entire capital city, which is also the Tianjie that divides the entire capital city into two parts, east and west. Countless people saw it with their own eyes. And the group stopped again. "Fellow Daoist Lin, we have to go back to the Taoist temple. Let's say goodbye now." Taoist Master Jiang sat on the horse and looked at him calmly. "Okay! Take care, fellow Taoist!" Lin Jue said. "Take care, brother." Junior Brother Ma also said. "As I said before, you may not be helping us, but you have helped my Master a lot. If you count carefully, you have helped us three times. My Master will not change his promise. If you need anything in the future, come to Zhenjian Palace to find me." Daoist Jiang paused, "Especially when fighting with gods." "it is good!" "Goodbye." Master Jiang said, but he couldn't help but pause again, and continued to look up at him, "Zhenjian Palace is not far from the capital. We don't have many old friends in Beijing. If you have time, please come and visit us often." "must!" Lin Jue agreed. Daoist Master Jiang pursed his lips and stopped talking, then rode away on horseback. Junior Brother Ma also bowed to him, and to everyone else, before following him and leaving. Everyone looked at Lin Jue. "Let's all go back." Lin Jue turned his stone horse around and walked back. To return to his own courtyard, he had to pass through the official office of Juxianfu, and the official office of Juxianfu was next to the Guanxing Palace. There was originally an alley that could bypass the Observatory, but Lin Jue did not go there. Instead, he led a group of people, riding the Observatory's stone horses with the wolf heads of monsters on them, and went straight to the gate of the Observatory. Behind him, Mr. Pan lived in the same courtyard as him, so naturally he went with him. Wan Xinrong followed without hesitation. Only Taoist Master Tao and his men did not live here. The two of them rode on Luo Gong's other two horses and looked at each other. Although it had only been a few days since they set out to eliminate the demon in Jinping County, they were not fools. Even if they did not fully understand the hidden truth, they should have been able to tell from their words that not only the three Taoist priests from the Zhenjian Palace, but even this Master Lin, was probably not on good terms with the Guanxing Palace. Master Lin first said that the Observatory had not gotten rid of the monster, and then he specially carried the monster's head past the gate of the Observatory, riding their original stone horse. There must be a deep meaning behind this. If I were to travel with him, people would obviously interpret his behavior in a different way. Master Tao was silent for a moment, but still followed.
At this moment, he believed in the virtue of Master Lin. That person was even more straightforward. He thought that he had gained fame and fortune by following Master Lin, and he was afraid that he would gain more fame and fortune in the future. He thought that he had a future, so he followed him with a smile. The stone horse stepped on the floor, making a loud noise. The people were also talking a lot. "Boom bang..." The sound was that some old bluestone slabs were crushed directly, while some unstable slabs were lifted up, splashing mud and water. Naturally, none of it could splash onto the Taoist priest. There were still many people standing in front of the gate of the Guanxing Palace, but in addition to the people, there was also a group of Taoists. All these Taoists said nothing as they watched Lin Jue riding the stone horse that was originally at the entrance of the Observatory, with the wolf head of a demon general hanging on it, pass by them in such a conspicuous manner. Lin Jue turned around and looked at them, his face expressionless. Since they dared to say to the people that the Guanxing Palace was immoral and incompetent, and dared to ride their stone horses on the streets, it meant that they had completely recognized their true colors and had completely broken off relations with them. In this case, Lin Jue was naturally not afraid that they would come to him again to ask for the two stone horses. Mr. Luo lifted up the wolf's head and pointed it towards them. Shi Ma didn't even look at them. "Boom bang..." A group of people walked over. The Taoist priest in the Star Observation Palace had a dark face. (End of this chapter)
