Great Wei scholar

He used simple metaphors to describe the true horror of the strange art.

Everyone understood this time, and each of them showed a look of astonishment.

"But, if you practice different arts again, what if you are lucky and you don't have a demon? Have you suppressed it?"

Someone couldn't help but ask questions.

"madness."

The next moment, before Mr. Cheng could speak, County Magistrate Li's voice sounded.

"The demon seed cannot be destroyed. Even if you are lucky enough to escape two catastrophes in a row, the hidden danger is even greater. If you increase your strength, you can only temporarily suppress the demon seed. After a while, it will still appear. You still have to face the choice of life and death."

"And the more you go to the back, the stronger the demonic nature. Before the founding of the Great Wei Dynasty, every once in a while, a great demon will be born, and there will be millions of floating corpses in a single thought. This is why the righteous way of the world strictly prohibits strange magic."

County Magistrate Li's explanation made everyone click their tongues.

But the one who was most shocked was Xu Qingxiao.

He didn't expect the strange art to be so terrifying.

He thought that he had escaped a catastrophe, and he also planned not to practice different skills in the future.

But now it seems that he has not escaped a catastrophe, but has fallen into a long-term endless loop.

If you don't practice different arts, your practice speed is slow, and sooner or later you will be surpassed by the demon species and become a demon.

Practicing different arts is a choice of life and death every time. If you get over it, the crisis is even greater. If you can't get over it, you go home on the spot.

Good guy.

Really good guy.

Xu Qingxiao fully realized the horror of the strange art.

I have really embarked on a road of no return.

"Is there really no way to solve it?"

Someone continued to speak, asking the question Xu Qingxiao wanted to ask.

At this moment, it was still County Magistrate Li's voice.

"The scourge of different arts has been difficult to solve since ancient times. If it can be solved, it will not be so strictly prohibited."

"Think about it for yourself. If you can solve the problem of demons, you can make people practice different arts. If you become a demon, you only need to ask the strong to guard by the side. Kill the demons on the spot. If you don't have demons, you can use them for the court."

"Why is it strictly prohibited by the world?"

Li County Magistrate's words are more clear.

Yes, if there is a solution, the big deal is to call a group of dead soldiers, and ask the strong to guard by the side. If someone is possessed by demons, they will be killed directly, and those who are not possessed will be kept for reuse.

Is it just around the corner to dominate the country?

So this means that this is an endless loop with no solution.

Xu Qingxiao was indeed panicked.

You won't take the villain script, will you?

Practice strange magic and evil skills at the beginning, explode at the last moment, become the last devil, and then be killed by the son of destiny?

A little brain pain.

But Xu Qingxiao suppressed all kinds of doubts in his heart.

Because the crisis has not been completely resolved yet, no matter what, let's talk about living first.

"Hehe, since it's all a misunderstanding, it's best, brother Qingxiao, I see that you have a good mind, and you have also benefited from misfortune. The most yang energy has been integrated into your body, and you have entered the taste, but also have some pure yang energy."

"If you don't want to stay in the county, you can come to Nanyu Mansion to find me. In a few days, Nanyu Mansion will recruit a new batch of arresters. You can try."

The other party opened his mouth and enthusiastically solicited Xu Qingxiao. If there were no previous incidents, Xu Qingxiao would really think that he was soliciting himself.

"Your Excellency has a high opinion."

Xu Qingxiao said something polite.

"Okay, Mr. Li, I'm a little abrupt today. The matter has been investigated clearly. I still have to deal with the fugitive. If there is any information, please convey it in time."

After saying this, he left the prison directly.

"Master Cheng, go slowly."

County Magistrate Li shouted, and then watched the other party leave.

After the other party left, County Magistrate Li breathed a sigh of relief, then glanced at Xu Qingxiao and said.

"Quickly untie him and send him back to rest."

After saying this, County Magistrate Li also left the prison.

After County Magistrate Li left, the remaining colleagues suddenly became excited.

"Qingxiao, Qingxiao, you almost scared us all to death."

"As expected, I was not mistaken, Qingxiao definitely didn't learn a different art secretly."

"Brother Qingxiao, you don't know that if you admit that you secretly learned different arts, all of us will be in bad luck."

Several people chattered, and at the same time quickly unlocked Xu Qingxiao, all of them seemed terrified.

"what happened?"

"what is the problem?"

"Why am I so dazed?"

What Xu Qingxiao said was true, he was a little confused about the whole thing, although he could probably guess some, but the specific details were unclear.

"Let me tell you, it's like this. An hour ago, people from Nanyu Mansion came, that is Mr. Cheng just now. After he heard the whole thing, his first reaction was to interrogate you."

"But before interrogating you, Mr. Cheng has already interrogated Dr. Zhao, but Dr. Zhao suffered a lot. He was beaten for nothing. He was punished for no reason in his sixtieth year."

"The county magistrate was fine at first, but when he saw Dr. Zhao being punished, he was a little dissatisfied, and then made a few detours with Mr. Cheng, otherwise you will also be punished."

The young colleague said so, and roughly explained the ins and outs of the matter.

"Dr. Zhao has been executed?"

Xu Qingxiao frowned.

"Nonsense, the people who came down from Nanyu Mansion are all ruthless. I can see that there is no one who can climb up that is not ruthless."

"If Dr. Zhao hadn't been sentenced, you probably would have been sentenced too. Fortunately, the magistrate was kind to us and didn't let you be sentenced."

"But having said that, if you really practiced different skills, the county magistrate's black hat would definitely be gone, and we would all be implicated, so you don't know that when we were outside the prison, we were more nervous than one another, for fear that you really practiced it. gone."

"But luckily not."

What the three of you said made Xu Qingxiao completely understand.

It seems that I am really lucky.

Something went wrong.

Fortunately, a flash of inspiration.

Thinking about it now, I am really afraid. Once I admit it, the county magistrate's official position will definitely be lost, and these colleagues probably don't expect to have a good end. If they practice strange arts by themselves, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not practice.

Although it is inhumane to sit together, Xu Qingxiao fully understands how terrifying the strange technique is through what Magistrate Li said just now.

He also fully understands how exaggerated the imperial court's strict prohibition on different arts is.

Before, Xu Qingxiao thought that if he didn't practice in the future, he would be fine.

Thinking about it now, I was really too young.

"Let's go, Qingxiao, let's go to the restaurant for a drink, so as to calm your nerves."

They opened their mouths and dragged Xu Qingxiao to suppress the shock.

Xu Qingxiao did not refuse.

He always felt that this matter was definitely not over yet.

That Mr. Cheng will definitely not let it go, especially the last words, which seem to be vigilant to everyone.

In fact, it's just for yourself.

So it's best not to talk nonsense now, and don't think about anything, just be an ordinary person, and wait until you get through this period of time.

The only thing that makes Xu Qingxiao feel uncomfortable is.

Dr. Zhao was sentenced.

This is implicated by oneself.

Xu Qingxiao was a little ashamed.

And at the same time.

That night.

In the mountains near Ping'an County.

Cheng Lidong was riding on a horse, quietly watching the night.

Dozens of officials followed behind.

He was extremely quiet and exuded a kind of majesty.

And this time.

The hooked-nosed subordinate behind him suddenly spoke.

"My lord, this Xu Qingxiao is too suspicious. Do you want to put two people by your side? Or just kill him directly, so as not to leave any trouble?"

He was Cheng Lidong's subordinate, and after decades of following him, he naturally knew what Cheng Lidong was thinking, so he took the initiative to speak up to relieve his worries.

However, Cheng Lidong shook his head and said in an extremely calm tone.

"no!"

"If it's in another county, it's okay to kill a servant."

"Unfortunately, there are people above Li County Magistrate. Our aggressiveness has already caused him dissatisfaction. If we forcefully kill another servant, it is a trivial matter to sue the governor, but it will not be a trivial matter in the court."

"The new dynasty has just been established, His Majesty is strict with the law, and there are turbulent waves in the court hall. There is no need to affect the governor for such things."

"Besides, a warrior who has just entered the rank can't make any waves. Even if he really practiced different arts, if he survived the first time by chance, he will definitely show his true colors the second time."

"At that time, it will be more troublesome. The current thing is to arrest the fugitive as soon as possible."

"There are too many things involved in this person, and the Fujun cannot wait."

He speaks.

His words were cold and harsh.

Chapter 10: Tiandi Wengong, seven statues

That night.

It's ugly time.

The sky was as black as ink.

Xu Qingxiao returned home reeking of alcohol.

After two full hours of drinking in the restaurant, Xu Qingxiao didn't drink too much, and even had to go outside to induce vomiting after drinking once.

Fortunately, he has already entered the product, his physical fitness has improved a lot, and his immunity to alcohol has also increased a little.

Xu Qingxiao didn't dare to get drunk, for fear that she would talk nonsense after drinking.

squeak.

Back home, the first thing Xu Qingxiao did was wash his face with cold water.

After a while, after a brief wash, Xu Qingxiao sat at home and meditated on some things.

Every word of County Magistrate Li still echoed in his mind.
