Chapter 46 Misunderstanding?
As the other party spoke, he calmly floated down from the wall of the courtyard and landed in the courtyard. At the same time, he waved his hand, and a square thing that looked like an official seal flew back from the young man in the shadow.
It was this thing that blocked Zhang Buyi's fatal blow to the man in black just now.
It was such a collision that Zhang Buyi instantly realized that the person who suddenly appeared had extremely strong cultivation. He could not be an apprentice, and was most likely a senior first-level professional, or even a second-level professional.
The person who came here was wearing a green gown. The blue clothes looked a bit elegant. He was in his forties and looked like a middle-aged scholar with a very elegant temperament.
"Prefect Liu?" Because the person who came was not covering up at all, Zhang Buyi looked at the familiar face of the other party, and Zhuang Zhengsong had information about the other party in his memory.
Liu Yuxiu, who had gained fame as a scholar and was the magistrate of Massachusetts City. In his memory, he had never shown the skills of a cultivator. He seemed to be an ordinary Confucian scholar, not a Confucian cultivator.
"If Magistrate Liu wants to see Pindao, he can just visit him normally during the day. Why visit late at night and cause such a big misunderstanding." Zhang Buyi stepped on the scalpel with his toes, his whole body was surging with spiritual power, and he said without any relaxation.
Liu Yuxiu, who had just appeared, looked at Zhang Buyi, focusing more on the strange knife on the tip of his toe. The flying sword is truly a legendary thing in Daxia today. Who is not curious about it.
"Oh, you don't have to pretend, you can't be Taoist Master Zhengsong! Ahem..." Before Liu Yuxiu could speak, the man in black who was blown away by Zhang Buyi was already struggling to get up.
.
He was in a bad state at the moment. He was in ragged clothes, had burns in many places, and blood was leaking from the corner of his mouth. It was obvious that he was seriously injured.
Hearing this, Zhang Buyi looked back at the man in black and said, "I thought your sword skills were a bit familiar before, but now that I think about it, you must be the imperial court's master catcher. So you are the county's chief catcher?"
Well, with this kind of strength, Zhang Shenju should be the only one to catch him. It’s really an honor. But what Pindao doesn’t understand is that Pindao is not worth it for Master Shenzhou to meet at Pindao Taoist Temple at night? Also, what did you mean by what you just said?”
The man in black is named Zhang Shuming. He is a well-known head catcher in Massachusetts and is known as Zhang Shenzhen. He should be an apprentice-level fast-moving professional. This profession is good at tracing.
As for the martial arts of "Shen Catching Sword", the reason why Zhang Buyi has some impression is because he had a little understanding of it when he was working in Jingle City in real life, but not much.
"Ahem..." Zhang Shuming coughed a few times before continuing: "You don't have to pretend. Although Taoist Master Zhengsong is a practitioner, he is at most a junior apprentice in the third level. He cannot be your Excellency.
Such cultivation.
Moreover, in the battle just now, Your Excellency was so cunning and cunning, and used third-party tactics at every turn, there is no way he could be Taoist Master Zhengsong."
Hearing this, Zhang Buyi said with a slight embarrassment: "Didn't you come to the door late at night and even break the chance for Pindao to have an epiphany? You can't blame Pindao for being careless. After all, it's not an exaggeration to say that something like this happens once in a thousand years.
.”
Zhang Shuming's face paused when he heard this, and then he said: "Even so, it is not the reason for you to pretend to be Taoist Master Zhengsong."
Zhang Buyi looked at Zhang Shuming, and then at Liu Yuxiu, who had been staring at the scalpel under his feet.
Zhang Buyi floated and landed in the courtyard. The scalpel turned into a stream of light and sank into his body. He said to Liu Yuxiu: "Prefect Liu thinks so too?"
When Liu Yuxiu saw Zhang Buyi floating down in the courtyard, he looked at Zhang Buyi carefully and said, "It's not important what I think. What's important is that over the past few days, Zhang Captou has clearly found out.
The Taoist priest did indeed die half a month ago. No one should be lying about this, and there is no need to lie. After all, what the undertaker said for sure. Doesn’t the Taoist priest have any explanation for this?"
"I······"
Zhang Buyi was about to reply.
"Master, Master..."
Just when he opened his mouth, the three disciples who heard the commotion in the courtyard came in a hurry. Seeing the broken wall, the messy courtyard, and the several people confronting each other in the courtyard, Sanwa's face froze, and his voice was stuck in his throat.
"Go back to your room and stay!" Zhang Buyi said to Sanwa.
"Oh!" Sanwa came to her senses, turned around decisively and left, very neatly.
"There's nothing to explain. Pindao was injured when he went out before. In order to heal his wounds, he used some methods. The prefect also saw it. None of my three disciples were successful. They didn't explain it clearly before, so they were killed by these three unfilial disciples.
Treated as dead and buried alive." Zhang Buyi used the same rhetoric as before.
"You're lying. Although Cao Tu followed a low-level path of cultivation, he is still a new entombment master. Even if he is only at the first level, he can still distinguish between the living and the dead!" Zhang Shuming immediately retorted.
Hearing this, Zhang Buyi's breath froze.
Immediately, thoughts flashed in his mind, and he looked at the two of them. Instead of arguing, he changed his direction and said: "Zhang Shenquan and Magistrate Liu visited me late at night. They probably thought that I was a foreigner pretending to be the master of Qingyu Temple."
Let's do something about your identity.
Then Magistrate Liu, I would like to ask, can foreigners have the orthodox immortal cultivation of Ping Dao? Can they have such Taoist methods?"
Liu Yuxiu nodded and said: "This cannot be false. The Taoist priest's talisman is indeed inherited from Qingyu Temple, and the sword cultivator... Daxia is an old antique. It cannot be false.
."
Zhang Buyi spread his hands and said: "It's over now, so I can't be a foreigner. So with my current level of cultivation, what difference does it make whether I can pretend to be the master of the Qingyu Temple or not?"
Zhang Shuming paused after hearing this and looked at Liu Yuxiu.
Liu Yuxiu nodded and said: "Let's just pretend that the Taoist Master is hiding his strength. I'll wait and see. Then, how does the Taoist Master explain the events of the past few days?"
"What?" Zhang Buyi asked blankly.
"Transform the talisman into the water, blow the air to save people. The flesh and white bones of the living and dead, capture the colorful clouds and detoxify the smoke. He is a rare true immortal in the world. In recent days, the rumors about the Taoist have become more and more mysterious.
That's all. If it's just to save people, but it can also detoxify tobacco, I should be happy. After all, this should be my great fortune.
But the way the Taoist has behaved these past few days reminded me of something, so I had to come tonight." Liu Yuxiu looked at Zhang Buyi and said.
"What's going on?" Zhang Buyi asked in confusion.
Liu Yuxiu looked at Zhang Buyi and said calmly: "It is said that before the previous dynasty, there was a legend called Taiping Dao, also known as Huang Tiandao. I wonder if you have heard of it?"
Zhang Buyi's face froze. Damn...how could he have forgotten this incident? The reason why Fu Shui pretends to be a ghost is because this ancestor made such a big fuss when he was the first to do so.
Given the nature of this world, Huang Tiandao must have made a bigger noise back then, not a smaller one.
Liu Yuxiu looked at Zhang Buyi's expression and continued: "It seems that the Taoist Master knows about it. I heard that Huang Tiandao was designated as a demon path by the previous dynasty, causing trouble in the world. I wonder what Taoist Master Zhengsong planned?
Now that the country is facing a national crisis, is it possible that the Taoist priest, or the Taoist tradition represented by the Taoist priest after his death, will continue to do harm to the country and the people at this time?"
At this point, Liu Yuxiu finally stated the main purpose of his visit. The magical weapon that resembled an official seal had never been put away.
"If I said, I just want to save people, would Prefect Liu believe me?" Zhang Buyi felt a little numb inside, and said with a bitter smile on his face, spreading his hands.
"Really? If I remember correctly, six months ago, I asked the Taoist priest to come out of the mountain, but the Taoist priest refused because it was difficult for me to do so." Liu Yuxiu replied.
"Yes, I also want to ignore the mortal world and practice Taoism with a pure heart. But a few days ago, Governor Liu still has an impression of the sixteen members of the Lu family who supported the last lineage of Qingyu Temple, right?" Zhang
Bu Yi looked gloomy and said with a sad face.
Liu Yuxiu's face paused, and Zhang Shuming immediately whispered to Liu Yuxiu: "Twenty years ago, Lu Yuanshen, the youngest son of the Lu family, was imprisoned by his family and was forced to quit smoking.
He broke away late at night, became addicted to cigarettes, went crazy and killed the whole family, and looted all the money. After the incident, he didn't have any regrets, took the money, went straight to the opium den to smoke, and was finally arrested and killed. It was really extremely vicious and had lost all humanity.
"
"I am not so stupid that I don't even remember this matter." Liu Yuxiu replied.
"Haha, it's funny to say that I always abide by my master's orders, stay away from the world of mortals, keep my heart pure, and only want to be happy and happy for the rest of my life. In the end, I don't know what happiness means.
Half a month ago, I suddenly realized that I had planned to go to Daxia to transform the demons and destroy the foreigners. But I didn't expect it. I thought too highly of myself and underestimated the foreigners.
When I went out, I bumped into a very powerful person and came back seriously injured. However, it was a blessing in disguise. I gained quite a lot from the treatment of tobacco poisoning, so I took these actions."
When Zhang Buyi said this, he looked at Liu Yuxiu and said, "I just want to do my best to save these addicted people and contribute a little bit to this turbulent summer. Does Liu Zhifu think this is not acceptable?"
"That's true, but I'm so lucky to be in Massachusetts!" Liu Yuxiu replied expressionlessly.
"If Magistrate Liu doesn't believe it, he can send someone to watch inside tomorrow, either to monitor or to help the poor people maintain order. What does the Magistrate think?" Zhang Buyi looked at Liu Yuxiu with a bachelor's expression as he spoke.
Zhang Buyi's calm attitude made Liu Yuxiu a little stunned. He really didn't expect this result.
Before coming here, he had already prepared for the worst. If Zhang Buyi was impersonated by a foreigner, he would kill him no matter who was behind him.
But after seeing Zhang Buyi's cultivation level, he made repeated inquiries and discovered that it seemed to be Taoist Master Zhengsong. He was already in a bit of a dilemma.
After all, in today's Massachusetts, a ninth-level senior apprentice is still a very important force. This is not the Great Xia seventy years later. Today's monks are just emerging and are very rare.
Besides, Zhang Buyi can also remove poison.
Moreover, Zhang Buyi also had a flying sword. Legend has it that the strongest swordsman, apart from killing, was escaping. He was not sure that Zhang Buyi would be left behind, and he was also not sure whether Huang Tiandao was really behind him.
Although I was squatting and didn't find anyone else before, what if I was hiding in the dark like him and didn't show up now?
