Chapter 26 Faith offers advice
The two Jindan monks each rode the clouds and flew high into the sky on the top of the mountain.
Chi Dun was gray-headed, with some minor injuries on his body, and snorted coldly on his gray cloud: "Feisi! If you hadn't stopped me from chasing the demon cultivator, I would have taken him down long ago!"
The object of his quarrel was an old man in yellow, with a goatee, bright eyes, and a surname Fei Mingsi.
Faith snorted coldly: "You reckless man. Am I blocking you from chasing the demon cultivator?" I am to stop you from destroying the fire persimmon forest!"
The two argued all the way and quarreled in front of the city lord.
The clouds and smoke opened like a curtain, revealing the true body of the city lord.
The contemporary city lord has a calm face, and he has long been accustomed to quarreling between the two.
Fei Si and Chi Dun are both literate and martial, and they are the most powerful arms of the city lord, but the two have always been at odds.
After Chi Dun bowed and worshipped, he immediately complained. accusing Faith of not cooperating, but preventing him from continuing the pursuit, and now letting the black shadow demon cultivator slip into the fire persimmon forest, he can only temporarily seal the forest.
Faith immediately refuted: "Reckless man!"
"The value of the fire persimmon forest is so great that it has been cultivated since the founding of the city. It took more than ten generations of hard work and hundreds of years of hard work to achieve today's scale."
"Fire persimmons are inherently explosive, and once a war breaks out in the fire persimmon forest, it will inevitably lead to serial martyrdom. At that time, the largest industry in our Fire Persimmon Immortal City will be wiped out!"
"More than half of the annual income of the Immortal City comes from the fire persimmon forest. It can be said that it is the fire persimmon forest that supports the operation of the fairy city."
"You only care about your own tasks, you are simply blind. Once the fire persimmon forest is destroyed, how will you ask the city lord to explain to the Nandou court?"
It turned out that the three sect masters hid the lava fairy palace deep in the fire persimmon mountain, and after suppressing the volcano, this place gradually turned from a bad land to a blessed land.
Nan Dou Immortal Dynasty took a fancy to this place, and hundreds of years ago, it appointed Yuan Ying-level cultivators to settle in the volcano and build an immortal city. After the Immortal City Formation was laid, it absorbed the earth force and fire aura as nutrients to cultivate the Fire Persimmon Forest.
The fire persimmon forest has a huge profit, and the name of the fire persimmon fairy city comes from this.
The annual fire persimmon picking has also derived a festival unique to the Fire Persimmon Immortal City - the Fire Persimmon Festival.
On the day of the festival, all the monks in the city will come to the forest to participate in picking fire persimmons. At that time, the city is filled with the joy of a bumper harvest and is very lively.
Chi Dun stiffened his neck, glared at Fei Si angrily, and was about to speak.
The city lord interrupted: "Okay, you have interrogated a group of monks, do you have any clues?"
Chi Dun hurriedly bowed and presented the confession book.
The city lord sat still and let the confession book slowly float in front of him. A gust of wind blew, turning the confession book from beginning to end.
He was a primordial infant monk, his consciousness was amazing, and in a few breaths, he could see the contents of the confession book at a glance.
There is no value.
Chi Dun asked for instructions: "Lord City Lord, the demon cultivator is hiding in the fire persimmon forest right now. What should I do?"
The city lord was conscious, and flew the confession book to Chi Dun, and his tone was flat: "What do you think should be done?"
Chi Dun frowned in embarrassment: "The Fire Persimmon Forest is extremely important, and my subordinates think that it is better to report it directly and let Nandou Immortal send capable people to deal with it."
"If nothing else, just sprinkle a handful of red beans, and with the red scarf wrestlers taking the lead, casualties can be greatly reduced."
"Or, directly invite the people from the Divine Capture Division to come over and kill the demon cultivator."
"Whether it is the cultivation of the Clear Mind Warning Technique, or the Divine Arrest Division monk who traces the root of the method, they are better at chasing down the murderer than me."
The city lord was expressionless and glanced at Fei Si.
Faith immediately understood and shouted again: "Reckless man!"
"You called the people of the God Catcher Division to come over, what else do you have to do with us?"
"We have secretly negotiated with the two major families, and now, we suddenly report upwards, how to face the two major families of the Zhou family and the Zheng family?"
"Once this is done, it will be a big bad rule!"
"In the future, if my lord is an official, how can the local cultivation family trust my lord again?"
"You must know that when you are in a place, you must maintain a good relationship with the local clan and cooperate closely, so that you can communicate with the government."
"If you go back on your word, it is the behavior of a villain!"
Faith refuted it vigorously, emotional.
There was still a part of him that he didn't say -
The discovery of the Lava Immortal Palace was after the city lord took office. According to the regulations, the city lord should report it in time.
However, at that time, the Zhou family and the Zheng family tried their best to persuade them to bribe them with a lot of money, and the city lord himself was greedy for the treasure of the Lava Immortal Palace, so he hid it without reporting.
Originally, the three parties were secretly developing, and they have been in peace.
The Ning family discovered the Lava Immortal Palace, which was also expected, and the three parties had already been mentally prepared to accept it.
But an accident happened suddenly - the lava fairy palace was blown out!
That damn black shadow demon cultivator, with the power of one person, caused the situation to take a turn for the worse and change beyond recognition.
The Lava Immortal Palace was almost completely born, and it was barely suppressed by the city lord himself. However, the selection criteria of the Lava Immortal Palace were still lowered to the Qi refining period, and the sound of the Dharma transmission bell was widely spread.
Although the city lord issued multiple orders to control the monks present in time and cover it up with all their might, the rumors had already leaked out. As time passes, the Nandou royal family will definitely know.
If the city lord gets the treasure from the lava fairy palace, then it is easy to say.
But now, he hasn't gained any benefits at all!
The loss on the side of the Immortal Dynasty was already inevitable, in this case, how could the city lord be willing to stop? Of course, he had to bite the bullet and explore the fairy palace with all his might, which was in his best interest.
Chi Dun couldn't say anything, so he simply spread his hands, saying that this task was too difficult and he was helpless.
Faith sneered: "You are just a reckless man, how can you think of a way? I have to come!"
The city lord looked at Fei Si and said lightly: "Fei Si, what can you do, just say it."
Faith had already had a manuscript, and said with a smile at this moment: "My lord, my subordinates think that the best way is to calm down!"
"The purpose of the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator is obvious, it is the Lava Immortal Palace!"
"Before, he wanted to enter the fairy palace, but was stopped by Zheng Shuanggou. This time, why did you appear near the dungeon?"
"On the surface, he wants to destroy the formation pillars under the dungeon."
The large formation in the Fire Persimmon Immortal City has five major formation pillars, which are located in the Zhou family, the Zheng family, the Ning family, the dungeon and the city guard camp. Destroying these formation pillars would endanger the entire Fire Persimmon Immortal City's large formation.
"But that's only a superficial purpose!" Fei Si judged, his eyes were shining, and he was quite confident.
"He is probably deliberately exposing himself and seducing Chi Dun to chase him in order to attract the city lord to show up and arrest him."
"In the end, this demon cultivator hid in the fire persimmon forest, seemingly panicked, but in fact it was quite strange."
"Fire persimmons are easy to self-destruct, and multiple formations are arranged in the fire persimmon forest. Why did he choose to hide here?"
"Now, multiple magic circles in the Fire Persimmon Forest have been opened together, temporarily sealing the Black Shadow Demon Cultivator. He seems to have become a caged bird and a turtle in an urn, but I prefer him to attract our attention."
"My subordinate has a bold guess. This black shadow demon cultivator is just a bait on the surface, but in fact, there are other people lurking secretly."
"Once we are attracted by him and concentrate our forces on encirclement and suppression, then the crater will inevitably be empty and reveal flaws."
"The enemy situation is unknown, and our knowledge is very limited. I don't know how many enemies are lurking in the dark."
"Even, those three major families do not rule out that they are the insiders of the demon cultivators, and even the driving force behind them!"
Chi Dun opened his mouth slightly when he heard this, and his eyes were distracted.
