You have mastered the art of thunder and you tell me that it is in a strange world?

Chapter 335 Tianxuan City

Because of the tree growing on half of his body, the man's face became blurred and difficult to identify. It was as if he had a mask on his face. The remaining half of his face was distorted due to erosion, showing obvious inhuman characteristics.

However, even so, Li Yaojiu in the audience could still see it at a glance:

That is my elder brother.

Want to kill his fourth brother.

The moment he saw his fourth brother's face, a chaotic mess of emotions exploded in Li Yaojiu's mind.

Guilt? Blame? Hatred?

She felt guilty towards her father and blamed her family for not understanding her.

This emotion has always filled Li Yaojiu's heart. She has thought more than once whether she should go back and completely break with her family members.

But when I really saw my family, the longing deep in my heart instantly overwhelmed all these negative emotions.

She stood up and walked slowly forward, wanting to go to the front of the stage and call out to Fourth Brother twice to ask him to stop.

Suddenly a shadow emerged from the crowd, stood in front of Li Yaojiu and grabbed her clothes.

Li Yaojiu looked intently.

A face that was somewhat similar to hers came into view.

"Eighth sister?"

The sudden appearance of this person made Li Yaojiu's heated thoughts sink back into cold water and calm down again.

"Yaojiu, why are you back to Tianxuan City now?" The woman called Eighth Sister lowered her voice. She looked around and pulled Li Yaojiu, pretending to leave:
"Come with me first."

Li Yaojiu subconsciously looked back at Zuo Chen and the others. Seeing Zuo Chen nodded, she followed her eighth sister.

The eighth sister glanced at the group of people who were humming behind Li Yaojiu, and wondered:
"Your friend? Can you trust him?"

Li Yaojiu nodded.

After thinking for two seconds, the eighth sister said:
"Then come together."

The group left the square, walked left and right at the entrance of the alley, and finally arrived at a yard.

When I pushed open the gate of the courtyard, I saw a number of people inside, gathered around a table and discussing in low voices.

Most of them were wearing official uniforms and were obviously city officials.

In the middle of the officials stood an old man wearing an official hat. He made a loud noise, and spit out stars from his mouth. The two phoenix wings on his official hat also shook up and down.

When the door was pushed open, everyone looked towards the door and found that Eighth Sister brought Li Yaojiu and the others in. Immediately, several yamen runners came over.

They whispered a few words to the eighth sister and shook their heads.

Eighth sister was a little anxious. Just as she was about to say something, she saw the old man who had been staring at this side nodded twice. A minor official ran over and whispered to the yamen runner. The yamen runner then took out a strange bronze mirror from his arms, scanned the people in front of him, and only let them in after making sure that there was nothing unusual on the mirror.

Zuo Chen glanced at the bronze mirror.

There is a small technique similar to the Qi-observing technique attached to the mirror, which can be regarded as a simple means of inspection.

After entering the courtyard, everyone else went about their business, except for the prefect who kept staring at everyone.

To be precise, he was staring at Zuo Chen, as if he was thinking and judging.

The eighth sister didn't care about anything else. She quickly reached out and grabbed Li Yaojiu, looking her up and down carefully. After making sure that she hadn't changed and wasn't injured, she looked at Li Yaojiu with bitter eyes: "Yangzhou is in chaos, why did you have to take this opportunity to come back..."

"Eighth sister..." Li Yaojiu murmured. She seemed to have never expected that her eighth sister would be so concerned about her. "You don't blame me?"

"Blame you? We were all watching from the side back then, and we all knew it was that evil man who did it. Although we were indeed in a state of uncertainty when father just died, when we think back later, we can also see that father left the chance of life to you. How can we blame you? We all went to blame that shitty tomb thief."

But after saying this, the eighth sister still paused:

"Except Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother has always been unhappy. I'm afraid that's why he has become like this."

Li Yaojiu looked a little lonely.

After calming down, he asked again:
"Eighth sister, what's going on now? Where are the other brothers and sisters?"

Li Yaojiu couldn't help but ask.

The eighth sister glanced at the people behind Li Yaojiu, then looked at the group of officials behind him, and said:
"The other three were captured by the fourth brother, and they were also infected with the strange disease and became his subordinates. The sixth brother and I escaped together, but we were robbed by cultists on the way. In order to protect me, the sixth brother became a cultist himself, and now no one knows where he is."

The eighth sister slowly told the story of what happened in the city.

Ever since Li Yaojiu left and his father died, the Li family has never recovered. Even though they received a reward from King Xuan after completing the mission, the Li family no longer had the capital to be a retainer, and naturally missed this opportunity.

For three years, the family has been looking for ways to revive the family, but the results have not been good. As the only remaining eldest son, Brother Li Si has been under increasing pressure and eventually gave up on himself and lived in depression for a long time.

As a result, just a while ago, the Holy Lotus Sect came into being. The disheartened Li Si Ge actually thought it was an opportunity to turn things around, so he took the initiative to contact the sect and pointed out a way to sneak into the city with the help of internal and external forces. As a result, the "disease" began to spread in the city. Now some people have become believers of the sect, following their daily evil prayers.

As the "leader", Brother Li Si was the most severely infected and naturally became the spokesperson for the sect in this urban area.

"The other brothers in the family disagreed with his actions, but by the time we found out, it was too late to remedy the situation now."

"Then sister, why are you here with the governor?"

"Your Excellency, the Governor must not allow those believers to get involved in Tianxuan City. However, these believers have strange means and are fearless. Once you are injured by them, it won't take long for them to become their believers. The Governor suffered a great loss in the first head-on confrontation, and lost a lot of elite soldiers. He can only turn from open to covert and discuss policy here for the time being.

"I came here to surrender and wanted to help the governor. The governor accepted me, and I helped him while trying to save my family. Since I am good at Qinggong, I occasionally go to observe the situation." "Sister, do you have any ideas now?"

"Not yet. Let's take it one step at a time. If it really doesn't work..."

He bit his lip, as if he had made a great decision: "Let's find a good time to send my family off."

I have already given up my life, and only hope that things will be accomplished.

Li Yaojiu hesitated, not knowing what to say.

"Miss Li is a righteous lady, truly a hero among men. We will definitely find a way to deal with the changes in the city."

Suddenly, a voice was heard behind everyone. They looked sideways and saw that the prefect was already walking over.

He seemed to have just finished his work and was still tired.

The governor first looked at the eighth sister, nodded with a smile, and then turned his gaze to Zuo Chen.

He seemed to be thinking about something, and finally bowed to Zuo Chen:

"Greetings, Taoist priest. I am Liang Fei, the governor of Tianxuan City. May I know where you came from?"

The prefect should have heard some news from Kyoto, but he was not sure about Zuo Chen's identity, so he could only ask first.

Zuo Chen smiled and took out a golden token from his bosom and threw it at the governor.

The governor subconsciously took the token and stared at it.

Golden, Li in front, Huang in the back.

When he saw it clearly, the governor's legs went limp and he almost fell to his knees.
"Greetings, Taoist Priest!"

His voice began to tremble.

The emperor’s order is like seeing the emperor!
As a prefect, how could he not know this thing?

But this thing hasn't appeared outside the palace for many years!
The last time this thing was taken out, the one running around the streets was also a Taoist priest. That man was respected as the King of the Capital!

really,

The other party is the Kyoto Taoist priest in the rumors!

Although the eighth sister next to her had always been a little concerned about this Taoist priest with extraordinary bearing, she could see that this man was capable, but she thought about the incident that the prefect had put on her.

The eighth sister's mind went numb, and she couldn't stop thinking:
"Who did this sister of mine worship?"

The governor was terrified and respectfully returned the token to Zuo Chen, and then said respectfully:

"Master, it is really difficult for Tianxuan City to host you right now. Please forgive me."

"Now is not the time to discuss this. I have a recipe that can help you suppress the believers in the city, but I also need your help with something."

"You tell me."

Zuo Chen's face turned serious:

"Tianxuan City is not too far from Yangzhou Pass."

"It's not too far." The governor said, "This should be the closest big city to Yangzhou Pass."

“There are many patients in Yangzhou. I will first set up protection throughout the city. As long as they are within this city, the disease will not invade. I will also leave treatment methods so that patients with shallow symptoms can be cured.

"I need you to open the city to receive refugees and protect the surrounding area. At the same time, I have contacted Prince Jing of Yuzhou. He will send troops to assist. I hope you will cooperate with them then."

After hearing the first few words, the prefect's expression was relatively normal. He nodded repeatedly, indicating that he could definitely do it. But when he heard the second half of the sentence, the prefect's expression became a little strange.

Yangzhou has been in chaos recently, and a lot of information is difficult to circulate, but even so, he was able to hear the important event of Prince Jing and Prince Wei coming to the capital.

It was hard for the governor not to have second thoughts when this Kyoto Taoist priest allowed Prince Jing's army to enter Yangzhou at this time.

However, this thought only flashed through the governor's mind for a moment, and he quickly threw all thoughts behind him: "I will follow the Taoist's arrangements."

After hearing the prefect finish his words, Zuo Chen also took out the remaining talismans from his arms.

The prefect noticed at a glance that these talismans were not made of yellow paper, but ordinary straw paper.

With sweat on his forehead, the prefect couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Is this really possible?

Zuo Chen noticed that there was something strange in the governor's eyes, but he didn't care. He just took off into the air and flew to mid-air on the spot.

His action frightened the governor so much that he stepped back repeatedly. Looking up at the sky in a daze, he could only see a small dot floating in the air.

The attention of other Tianxuan officials was also drawn to this. They all put down their work and pointed at the air.

Zuo Chen pinched the talisman and gently waved his hands around. The talisman suddenly floated away and floated in the air.

Reach out and gently move upwards.
