Chapter 162 Absolute strength
Zhou Mei's mind became increasingly confused. She couldn't help but cover her head with her hands, feeling a dull pain in her cheeks.
"Om..."
A stream of pure Yin Sha righteous Qi spread out from Zhou Mei's eyes, ears, and all seven orifices.
"You...are shameless..."
Zhou Mei spoke reluctantly.
"Hahahaha!"
Zhong Kui burst into laughter upon hearing this, and as he moved, the black armor on his body disappeared, and was replaced by the red robe.
He pointed at Zhou Mei and said to Jiang Lin with a smile, "Little Taoist friend, this little bitch is really unreasonable. She actually said that I am shameless?"
"It's just the opposite of the cause."
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "The Master slapped her with a slap, confusing her mind and disturbing her sea of consciousness, so that she could not do what he wanted. She could only follow her past memories and come to this Wet Bone Forest."
"It's just that I'm a little confused."
Jiang Lin said, looking at Zhong Kui, and asked: "How did you know that the general behind Zhou Mei was wearing a black armor, and was so secretive?"
Zhong Kui smiled mysteriously when he heard this. He didn't say anything, but just looked somewhere in front of him.
"tread……"
With the sound of clanging footsteps, a Taoist priest in a black Taoist robe walked over.
This Taoist priest looked to be no more than thirty years old, with a short beard, an average height and appearance, but his eyes were like a deep pool.
When Jiang Lin saw this Taoist, although he didn't know who he was, he could tell that his aura was real.
This is a black law mage.
Moreover, he is a black law wizard who has already attained enlightenment.
"I am Zuo Tongxuan, the steward mage of the Black Law Division."
The Taoist nodded slightly at Jiang Lin, with a smile on his face. Although the smile was only fleeting, it was already rare for a Black Law Mage.
Jiang Lin was stunned when he heard this.
Jiang Lin was naturally well aware of the job distribution in his own Black Law Department, and this was also what surprised him.
It is true that the Black Law Division is affiliated with the Arctic Exorcism Institute, but it also has some meaning of "establishing a government" in itself.
Therefore, some Black Law Wizards were appointed to official positions in the Black Law Department itself, which were not included in the first to ninth grade official positions in the North Pole Exorcism Institute.
Among them was the so-called Black Law Officer.
How to describe this position? It can be understood as the "secretary" of the chief god of the Black Law Department.
There may be more than one, but each one of them can be considered a leader among the black law mages.
"Junior Jiang Xuanying greets the steward."
Jiang Lin came back to his senses and hurriedly saluted.
Zhong Kui standing by also bowed in greeting.
"Ah."
Zuo Tongxuan nodded and looked at Zhou Mei who was still lying on the ground, but he only glanced at her and didn't look at her any further.
"Xuanying, this is the first time I meet you."
Unexpectedly, Zuo Tongxuan did not talk about business first, but instead started chatting with Jiang Lin about family matters.
Hearing this, Jiang Lin suddenly felt relaxed.
The fact that the Black Law Mage, who always puts rules and orders first, could do this can only prove one thing, that is, the affairs here are under control without any mistakes or omissions.
After Zuo Tongxuan finished speaking, he turned up his sleeves and took out a long box. The box automatically flew into Jiang Lin's hands.
"As a junior here, I naturally need a gift. Since Ming Zhen has already given you a golden elixir, I can't just follow his example."
"This is some agarwood that I made in my spare time. You can use it."
Jiang Lin was not polite, he took the box, bowed and said: "Thank you for your gift, senior."
Zhong Kui on the side was sucking his teeth secretly.
Is this the treatment of the only descendant of the Black Law lineage in the world?
He had also heard of the great name of Deacon Zuo Tongxuan, who was of a very high seniority among the Black Law Mages.
In the heavenly realm, there are also fasting, offering sacrifices and worship, and it is an indispensable part of it.
As the secretary of the chief god of the Black Law Division, Zuo Tongxuan's personally made agarwood, which could be placed on the shrine of the Black Law Division, and the incense could reach Ziweiyuan directly.
This weight is indeed heavy.
Not to mention the practitioners in the lower world, even for an ancient Taoist sect like the Taisu Palace, such agarwood would be treasured.
And such a treasure is just given away like that?
Zhong Kui felt emotional.
After doing all this, Zuo Tongxuan smiled and said, "Xuan Ying, do you have any doubts?"
"There are some."
Jiang Lin nodded.
Regarding the matter of finding out Zhou Mei's backers in the underworld, he was only responsible for the human part. The rest was not within his scope of responsibility, and he didn't know too many things.
All we know is that this matter is being directly monitored by Wei Tianjun, and the deacon Zuo Tongxuan who has been sent down now also illustrates this point very well.
"Just shoot the arrow first and then draw the target."
Zuo Tongxuan smiled slightly, looked down at Zhou Mei who was lying on the ground, and said, "This woman has many secrets, and she has also seen the general in the underworld."
"Do you remember the Black Law Hall you set up when you were on earth?"
"I secretly borrowed some of the evil spirit and used a method similar to soul searching."
Hearing this, Zhong Kui couldn't help but be shocked.
My Lord Deacon, are we really the righteous and righteous gods...
How can you openly talk about soul searching...
Why not hide it a little?
Jiang Lin didn't think too much about it, he just nodded suddenly.
That's what happened.
Why didn't he think of it? With the status of this senior in front of him, if he wanted to know some information, there was no need to interrogate him or do anything else. He could just search his soul directly.
What? Is this an evil trick?
Let’s not talk about anything else, just say that I use evil means to deal with evil, is there anything wrong with that?
"Xuanying, please remember this."
Zuo Tongxuan said calmly: "We, the Black Law Masters, naturally abide by the rules, but for the evil ways..."
The words were not fully said, but the meaning was clear.
Zhong Kui couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Jiang Lin nodded in agreement and said, "I will keep your teachings in mind."
Zhong Kui looked at the two Black Law Mages, one old and one young, in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
As expected of a black law player, he mainly uses righteousness to spread evil. He is cruel to himself, but even more cruel to his enemies. There is absolutely no room for maneuver.
Zhong Kui sighed, and then turned his attention to what was happening in front of him.
In fact, the whole process is very simple.
Jiang Lin was doing things in the human world. He cut off Zhou Mei and drew out her soul.
Then at this moment, Zuo Tongxuan, the big boss who was secretly responsible for paying attention to this matter, took action directly. With the help of the Black Law Hall set up by Jiang Lin, he used the original evil spirit of the black law to search the soul.
After getting the information she wanted, it was Zhong Kui's turn to appear. He was a righteous god from the underworld who was disguised. It was completely wishful thinking for Zhou Mei to see through him.
Then, before Zhou Mei could react, Zhong Kui slapped her in the face.
This slap was very well-thought-out. It secretly carried the Yin Sha Zheng Qi, which directly dispersed Zhou Mei's mind and sea of consciousness, leaving her no time to think about other things. The "secret base" of the Wet Bone Forest was also dug out by Zuo Tongxuan from Zhou Mei's soul.
This is also the reason why Zuo Tongxuan said that one should shoot the arrow first and then draw the target.
If we want to obtain evidence that the general in the underworld is involved in this matter, we need a witness. And what witness is more suitable than Zhou Mei?
Fishing Enforcement
The whole process seems simple, right?
Zhou Mei's intelligence is definitely not low. She is able to get along well with the Pavilion Master, the General, and the Emperor. As a bridge of communication among the three parties, she naturally has her own abilities.
However, in the face of an absolute gap in strength, everything is empty.
Zuo Tongxuan and Zhong Kui's successive actions left Zhou Mei with no choice but to act as a puppet and come to the Wet Bone Forest to meet the "general".
In this way, the "secret base" was found, and evidence of the general in the underworld was also obtained.
Before this, the whole incident seemed complicated and confusing, simply because Jiang Lin’s strength was not enough.
Once someone of sufficient weight intervenes, everything will become simple.
Even if there is a Ghost Emperor behind Zhou Mei, he is no match for Zuo Tongxuan, the deacon of the Black Law Division, not to mention that he is just a general under the command of a Ghost Emperor.
Not to mention, this time it was Wei Tianjun who took the time out to send people to pay attention to this matter.
As for why we didn’t do this before, the reason is very simple.
Do you really think that Hei Lu Si is not busy?
With the current situation in the Three Realms, the Black Law Department is one of the busiest departments in Heaven.
If it weren't for Jiang Lin's affairs here, which involved the arrangements of Emperor Ziwei, the reincarnation of Emperor Dongmingxing and the replacement of the orthodox emperor of Chixian Shenzhou on earth.
Otherwise, it would be a dream to expect a big shot like Zuo Tongxuan to personally take action.
In short, not good enough.
As expected, the confusing case in front of Jiang Lin was solved after the boss took strong action and suppressed it with absolute strength.
From the beginning to the end, Zuo Tongxuan only used two extremely crude strategies to lure the snake out of its hole.
But even with such a plan, which could even be said to be not worthy of being presented to the public, things were accomplished successfully.
Absolute strength is enough to make up for any gap in wisdom and strategy, or in other words, wisdom and strategy are just something used when strength is insufficient.
Wei Tianjun paid attention to it, and the highly experienced steward of the Black Law Department took action personally, and the True Lord of the Underworld ran errands to do the job.
And then it happened.
It's that simple.
And Jiang Lin is just a link in it, or just a mark.
Jiang Lin is very self-aware. He has long known that what he can see of the things he is currently involved in is only a part of them.
Occasionally it may be an important piece of the puzzle, but it is only one piece.
"Senior, I wonder who the general behind Zhou Mei is?"
Jiang Lin, who had figured out the key, asked the question that concerned him most.
He really wanted to know who was the righteous god in the underworld who cooperated with the Pavilion Master to allow Zhou Mei to "smuggle" and why the other party did so.
"The Lord of Heaven has passed by."
Zuo Tongxuan did not answer, but smiled slightly and said, "What's going on over there is no need for you and me to worry about it."
As he spoke, he walked up to Jiang Lin and sighed softly, "Although the Three Realms are generally stable, there are undercurrents. But no matter what, the underworld cannot be in chaos."
"This time, the Lord of Heaven is going to use thunderous means, who knows..."
Zuo Tongxuan raised his eyes and looked in a certain direction, and said: "The Heavenly Monarch will use the Ghost Emperor's head to scare away the demons."
Jiang Lin looked in the direction Zuo Tongxuan was looking and couldn't help but squint his eyes.
This deacon is looking at the south...
Luofu Mountain?
Jiang Lin thought to himself.
"Xuan Ying."
Zuo Tongxuan interrupted Jiang Lin's thoughts and said with a smile: "You are still too young. When you achieve immortality, you will have the opportunity to make great achievements."
"In this day and age, it is naturally a disaster rather than a blessing for old guys like me, but for you, this is an unprecedented battlefield."
"Kill the general and seize the flag. Be the first to break into the enemy line. There will always be a chance."
"But now, do your thing."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Lin nodded slightly. What Zuo Tongxuan said was absolutely right.
The Three Realms are in chaos. For the evil and demonic, it is naturally a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters, but for the righteous like me, it is also an opportunity.
If we count the great gods in the three realms, which one of them did not achieve his own achievements by stepping on the corpses of countless evil demons and heretics?
However, these things are still a bit far away for Jiang Lin. As for the present...
Jiang Lin silently drew out the Tianpeng ruler and walked towards Zhou Mei who was lying on the ground.
Now, it's time to put an end to her once and for all.
Zuo Tongxuan raised his eyebrows, his eyes lingered on the Tianpeng ruler in Jiang Lin's hand for a moment, and he was secretly shocked.
It turned out to be this object.
Lord Tian, you have always said that we are too protective of our juniors, but you...
Zuo Tongxuan sighed in his heart, and at the same time, secretly spread out a layer of black law origin evil energy.
Since Zhou Mei has become an obsession for his descendants, if he is to be eliminated completely, he must be absolutely sure.
Jiang Lin walked slowly to Zhou Mei's soul and looked down at her.
Zhou Mei also looked up at Jiang Lin, with no emotion in her eyes.
She had already given up on using her charm to seduce Jiang Lin, so naturally she would not seduce herself anymore.
When the pair of eyes looked at Jiang Lin, they were clearer than ever before.
Looking at the Taoist in front of me who had traveled from Hangzhou to Kyoto, and then all the way to this wet bone forest in the underworld.
She smiled and said, "Song Palace, once, Golden Palace, once, and now it's the first time..."
"boom!"
Before he could finish his words, the Tianpeng ruler in Jiang Lin's hand burst out with extreme power, and the Tianpeng positive energy was activated.
The positive energy fell on Zhou Mei's body, and immediately her soul flew away.
Before she died completely, there was a hint of disbelief and self-mockery in Zhou Mei's eyes.
She never thought that this young Taoist priest would not even give her a chance to finish her last words.
This is also the reason why I make fun of myself.
Yes, in his eyes, I am not worthy.
"Zhou Mei, murdered an innocent pregnant woman, instigated evil sacrifices, and teamed up with the underworld sin god, creating boundless evil consequences. She threw herself into the evil path and fell into depravity."
"I have committed many sins, too numerous to count."
"Today, I, the poor Taoist, obey the imperial decree of the North Pole and examine the black laws of Fengdu."
"Your soul shall be scattered, and you shall not be granted the grace of rebirth."
"Death penalty!"
Jiang Lin’s cold and ruthless voice echoed in the Wet Bone Forest.
Amidst the majestic light of the Heavenly Canopy, the young Taoist in green stood alone.
What appeared before his eyes was Zhou Mei, who had completely disappeared.
