Chapter 65: The Matter Is over and I Am Leaving
Qi Xuansu said he wanted to test the sword with Yanxiu, but changed his mind when the time came. After all, the target of "Fei Yingbai" was too big and it was easy to leave traces.
So Qi Xuansu finally decided to solve the problem with his fists.
As for whether anyone could see the flaws in the boxing, it was not a big problem. Since Xuansheng integrated the inheritance, there has been no real secret that has not been passed on. Even the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin" has been circulated outside, not to mention the "Dan Tai Fist Intention" which is only the upper method.
To put it another way, even if Qi Xuansu did not use the "Dan Tai Fist Intention" but used a method that others had never used, others would still doubt him.
This is like what Taipingdao did in Jinling Prefecture. Even if everyone knew it, as long as there was no real evidence, it could not be weighed. Since it cannot be weighed, it does not weigh four taels.
In fact, according to reason, Qi Xuansu should not be so anxious to act. This time is a bit too sensitive, but things in the world will not always go smoothly. Yanxiu, the thief, will not stay in Wutong Garden. If you miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find Yanxiu's trace. After all, Qi Xuansu is not the same as before. He has responsibilities and cannot run around. If you miss this village, you may not have this shop again.
In addition, Yanxiu is a Buddhist after all, and it is almost inevitable that he will become a celestial being. Now Qi Xuansu still has an advantage in realm against Yanxiu. If you miss this opportunity, the next time you meet, maybe the two will be at the same realm. By then, even if Qi Xuansu can beat Yanxiu, he may not be able to kill Yanxiu. You must know that Yanxiu's ability to save his life is not inferior to Qi Xuansu. The little Qin Wang and Xie Qiuniang surrounded and killed him, but he let him escape, which is evident.
Because of this, Qi Xuansu considered again and again and decided to take a risk.
The key is to do it cleanly.
Qi Xuansu moved as fast as lightning, pulling out the flying knife stuck in Yanxiu's right eye, and continued to press down, making Yanxiu's neck more and more overwhelmed.
At the last moment of life and death, Yanxiu finally used the "Da Ri Annihilation Body Method", and countless red lights burst out all over his body, like a red sun. At the same time, his flesh and blood began to shrink rapidly, and he had lost weight in the blink of an eye.
Yanxiu seemed to be in the last moments of life and death, and he actually withstood Qi Xuansu's downward force.
If the two people's realms were equal, Qi Xuansu would really be reversed by Yanxiu who was desperate, or if the gap between the two was only a small realm, Yanxiu would also have the strength to fight.
Unfortunately, the gap between the two was a big realm.
The so-called small realm gap, such as the Yuxu stage versus the Guizhen stage, is only a quantitative change for both innate people. And the Guizhen stage to the Xiaoyao stage seems to be a realm gap, but it is the difference between innate people and heavenly people, which is already a qualitative change.
Neither Qi Xuansu nor Zhang Yuelu could achieve the feat of directly defeating the gods with their cultivation in the Return to the True Realm stage. Looking back at the history of Taoism, there are no more than ten people who can achieve such a feat, and most of them were in the chaotic times when Taoism was first established. In addition to their excellent qualifications, they are all experienced fighters.
As an aside, human nature is not suitable for fighting, but animal nature is more suitable. When people are injured and in pain, they will instinctively turn around and run away, and their minds will be in chaos, while animals have the natural instinct to suppress pain. Therefore, ordinary people can easily fall into a situation where they are at the mercy of others after being injured. For example, when Qi Xuansu first encountered the assassin of the "Inn", he didn't even run away, and was eventually stabbed to death. The same is true for Yanxiu. He was stabbed in the right eye by Qi Xuansu with a flying knife, and he was unable to use the method of saving his life because of the severe pain.
To overcome this nature, a lot of actual combat experience is needed to tap into the animal nature in the body. The principle of the "Magic Knife" is based on this. Qi Xuansu has now touched the edge, which is also the root cause of the wild Taoist priests looking down on the Taoist priests in the flower garden.
"Heavenly Knife" does the opposite, abandoning human nature and imitating divinity, like playing chess with precise calculations. Although it cannot be crazy and increase combat power, it is more stable. When have you ever seen a chess piece be afraid and afraid to fight?
After entering the peaceful world from the chaotic world, Zhang Yuelu and Yao Pei have enough qualifications, but they are far from being experienced in hundreds of battles. In this regard, their experience is not even as good as Qi Xuansu, not to mention compared with the predecessors who were born in the chaotic world. Qi Xuansu, Xu Kou and others have barely enough experience, but their qualifications are too poor and they don't have that capital. Xu Kou was confident in challenging Zhang Yuelu, but it didn't even reach the point of competing in experience, and was directly defeated by Zhang Yuelu.
For example, Zhang Yuelu and Yao Pei have capital but are not good at doing business, while Qi Xuansu and Xu Kou are good at doing business but have no capital. Qualification and experience are both indispensable.
Because of this, Yanxiu cannot compete with the heavenly being with his cultivation of returning to the truth.
Although there were some twists and turns, Qi Xuansu's palm was still firmly pressed on Yanxiu's bald head.
Qi Xuansu continued to exert force steadily, slowly pressing down, and said in a low voice: "The man is innocent, but he is guilty of holding the treasure. Since you are determined to die, I will fulfill your wish."
Yanxiu's face has been distorted, his hands are clasped together, and he recites the Buddhist mantra.
Qi Xuansu's sleeves are fluttering, and the martial arts strength and scattered people's true energy have been running to the extreme. Even the whole arm has begun to partially turn into a golden body, the skin and flesh have become translucent, and a layer of gold has been stained. The meridians and bones are clearly visible, and this alienated scene is still spreading, extending from the arm to the shoulder, and from the shoulder to the "heart of the longevity stone" at the heart position.
However, all these strange phenomena were obscured by Yanxiu's red light.
After a moment of such a stalemate, Yanxiu was already skin and bones. The "Great Sun Destruction Technique" could no longer be used, and the red light around his body disappeared. Almost at the same time, Qi Xuansu's golden body was also withdrawn, but there was still no trace of the golden light.
Then came the turbulent and powerful pouring down. Yanxiu could no longer bear it. Blood spurted out from his eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and every orifice. His bones rattled and were crushed into powder by the martial arts power and Sanren's true energy.
In the blink of an eye, Yanxiu had turned into a puddle of mud, with bloody flesh and blood. No injuries could be discerned, and even an autopsy was omitted.
Qi Xuansu picked up the Xumi object from the blood mud and pretended to search for it for a while. After finding nothing, he quickly turned around and left the place.
Qi Xuansu originally wanted to take Yanxiu's body to Tianshou Mountain, and then throw the corpse into the cave of the ghost country, where he would see no one alive but no dead body. It's just that Qi Xuansu considered that he couldn't kill Yanxiu silently, and would definitely leave traces of the fight. If he couldn't pretend that Yanxiu left on his own initiative, then this move would not make much sense, and he would carry Yanxiu's body with him. Going out of the city is still too risky. Ever since Du Yuyan and others disappeared, Tianchen Division has strengthened the control and surveillance near Tianshou Mountain. If you are not careful, it is easy to make things worse.
So after thinking about it again and again, Qi Xuansu rejected this idea and instead killed Yanxiu as the Qingpinghui. From the beginning to the end, he did not reveal any flaws. Even if he had a "voice talisman", he still had a "shadow stone" No matter what, he is not afraid.
Qi Xuansu walked all the way out of Wutong Garden and returned to Nancheng at night, changed back into his original clothes and took off his "white fox face" mask.
Someone was bound to ask him what he was doing in Nancheng afterwards, and Qi Xuansu also thought about it and was prepared.
The key is to have a witness of sufficient weight.
In fact, Zhang Yuelu was the best candidate, and the reason was ready. When Deputy Hall Master Zhang arrived in the Imperial Capital, he led Deputy Hall Master Zhang around as a close friend. Nancheng was the most prosperous place among the four outer cities, so it was natural for him to come, which was reasonable.
However, with Zhang Yuelu's temperament, she could turn a blind eye but would not take the initiative to participate.
For example, Zhang Yuelu was well aware of Sun Yongfeng's secret collection of peace money. She also said that she didn't like such human behavior, but she didn't point it out because when the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are careful, there are no disciples. She is not To be a pure and lonely minister, she does not want to be a perfect moral person. If she wants to change the sect, she must have her own team and her own confidants, so she has to choose to live in harmony with the light. She didn't care whether others scolded her or ridiculed her.
In fact, Zhang Yuelu learned some tactics from the Heavenly Master and the Earth Master.
Especially the Earth Master, who even taught her some emperor's mental skills and used the previous Emperor Sejong as an example.
Use corruption to maintain loyalty, abandon corruption to eliminate dissidents, kill corruption to anger the common people, and confiscate wealth for public use. This is the art of emperors throughout the ages.
To put it bluntly, if you want others to work hard, you have to give them benefits, so you can only give them power and let them use it to make money. And if the people below have the right to make profits, isn’t it all given by the top? Therefore, where power lies and benefit lies, one must be loyal.
As long as you do the things of greed, it is equivalent to putting the handle in the hands of the superiors. If you dare to disobey, the superiors will kill them in the name of greed. This is to suppress dissidents.
When public dissatisfaction boils over, let everyone in the world know that it is not the fault of those above, but the fault of those below. Then choose a scapegoat to kill to make the people angry.
Therefore, Emperor Sejong practiced Taoism for twenty years and did not go to court, but he still held great power.
In this way, the power is certainly stable, but the atmosphere is completely ruined.
Nowadays, Taoism has this trend.
Therefore, Zhang Yuelu is often troubled and helpless. He cannot use it, and using it will encourage this trend. It is really a dilemma. She wanted to clean up the trend, but her position was not high enough or stable enough, so she really didn't have the confidence. During the Wei dynasty, there was only a blue sky, and all the other princes were insignificant. Therefore, expecting all subordinates to be as clear as water is as unrealistic as expecting a unified world. There are people who are indeed not greedy for money, but are greedy for fame, who are either greedy for money or fame, who are violent in temperament, or whose eyes are beyond control, such as Xu Kou and Qi Xuansu, not to mention those who are greedy for power. In short, no one is perfect.
Even Zhang Yuelu himself is not perfect, and there is nothing he can do. He can only constantly consider the measurement and control it within a relatively reasonable range. This is undoubtedly following the old path of Zhang Suqing, that is, not demanding morality, but setting limits to examine things, blaming people for things, and using merit to offset demerits.
Zhang Yuelu also has her own bottom line, which is that she will not participate in such things. She lived in poverty and poverty, and the only exception was probably to help Qi Xuansu deal with Yue Liuli.
Therefore, this move still went against Zhang Yuelu's original intention. Qi Xuansu didn't want to embarrass her, so he found another candidate.
