Chapter 868 There is also a righteous way

Captain Su said that there was a mountain road to the north from here, and that road was once blocked by fearless bandits who robbed people.

He once wanted to lead his troops to capture this group of people directly, but Ying Tong said that the military camp was not for such things and that it should be the government's business.

Moreover, those people might just be poor souls who could no longer make ends meet. If soldiers were sent out, it would be bullying the weak.

Zhou Shiyue didn't let them send it.

"That's not necessary."

"Yes, don't worry, Master Qianhu. If we really encounter those people, we can easily deal with them."

Lu Zhaoling said this to Captain Su, and waved to Lu Yuan beside him.

Lu Yuan raised his hand and wanted to wave it like her, but then quickly put it down.

He Ge whispered beside him, "Are you really not going to talk to Miss Lu and say goodbye to that person in person?"

"No need. It's broad daylight and it's not easy for her to come out." Lu Yuan nervously signaled him to stop talking nonsense.

He really didn't mean that.

It was obvious that Brother He and Brother Tan both wanted to meet Madam Sheng San.

But it's broad daylight now, there's no way she would show up.

Lu Zhaoling looked at them and said, "Lu Yuan, I will help you tell the Third Lady that you are here to see her off."

Lu Yuan was suddenly at a loss.

"No, Miss Lu, I, I'm here to see you off..."

Zhou Shiyue hummed and looked over.

Brother He and Brother Tan immediately shouted, "We are here to see the prince and Miss Lu off! Please take care, Prince, Miss Lu, and Master Yin, and have a safe and smooth journey!"

"Yes! Please come to the southwest again when you are free! Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we will definitely protect the southwest!"

Their voices were loud, their chests were straight, and they were full of momentum, which immediately suppressed the slightly personal meaning brought by Xiao Lu Yuan's previous words.

Captain Su also tightened his grip on the knife handle.

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty and Miss Lu, I will protect the southwest and will not allow the barbarians to take advantage of the situation again."

"Okay, let's go."

Zhou Shiyue was too impatient to deal with such a situation, so he lowered the curtain and ordered to set off immediately.

The group hurried to the north.

Keep going.

When we passed the mountain road that Su Qianhu had mentioned before, it was quiet and we passed it smoothly.

Zhou Shiyue was even a little disappointed.

If bandits really appeared, they could easily deal with them.

Lu Zhaoling was thinking about the talisman on Zhou Shiyue's body and reasoning with him.

"Jiang Yongyi's master, Old Man Gong, should be with Luo Yingchuan. Although they set out for the north earlier than us, I don't think they can be fast."

"One is that they suffered a backlash before and their internal injuries are serious. They won't be able to bear it if they travel too fast."

"There is another possibility. They are likely to look for the person who cast the third spell on their way to the north."

Lu Zhaoling grabbed Zhou Shiyue's hand and played with his fingers, saying to him, "I hope they really found that person."

"Then we can catch all three of them in one fell swoop."

Naturally, she also had this purpose in going to the north this time.

Those three people must be found and dealt with.

"Won't it be dangerous for you to face three people alone?" Zhou Shiyue was a little worried.

"will not."

Lu Zhaoling answered without even thinking.

"Don't I still have a senior disciple? Also, I think Grandma Sheng should wake up in a few days."

Grandma Sheng is a great help.

After digesting such a big ghost, her cultivation must have improved by leaps and bounds.

The higher the level of cultivation, the longer it takes to digest.

Grandma Sheng has been sleeping for such a long time, she would be very fierce when she comes out, right?

"Where is my father?"

Zhou Shiyue thought of the emperor, "Is there any ghost that he can swallow? He can't lose too much to Grandma Sheng, right?"

"Cough, cough, cough!"

This guy really speaks shockingly!

"Zhou Jinjin! That's your father! He's the emperor of the Great Zhou! After all, he was once an emperor star, and he still has the aura of an emperor."

"So what? Can't you swallow ghosts?" Zhou Shiyue really didn't understand.

He thinks there is nothing wrong with asking if he doesn't understand.

"This method of cultivation is never the right way."

Lu Zhaoling touched his nose a little guiltily and lowered his voice, "Don't bring it up casually in the future. I told Grandma Sheng about this method secretly, don't you know?"

"Grandma Sheng herself was originally a ghost who was burned to death in a tragic way, and she has been trapped for decades. The Netherworld doesn't have a file on her yet, so they won't keep too close an eye on her. She was originally a ghost cultivator, and for someone like her who doesn't follow the right path, it's okay for her to cultivate randomly occasionally."

"But the emperor is different. He must have been watched by both the Heavenly Dao and the Underworld for a long time. For the sake of the emperor's righteousness, he must also maintain the righteous way of cultivation."

You can't turn the emperor into an evil ghost cultivator, right?

By then, she was afraid that she would be torn to pieces by the emperors of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Zhou Shiyue understood what she meant.

He sighed.

"No, why are you sighing?" Lu Zhaoling was convinced.

"It's a pity. The righteous path is full of vicissitudes." Zhou Shiyue shook his head.

The retired emperor suddenly jumped out from the carriage on the other side.

He nearly hit the carriage.

Yin Yunting glanced at him.

"Did the Emperor send a message in his dreams? Doesn't he send messages in his dreams at night?"

"Xiao Yin, then you don't understand my son."

The emperor sat down beside him, smoothed his messy hair, and looked tired.

"He will definitely need to catch up on some sleep after court, so this is the perfect time."

Yin Yunting laughed.

"So, is it possible?"

"I did enter his dream, but it looked very blurry. I guess he just saw my shadow. I heard him calling out, 'Father, is that you? Is that you?'"

The Emperor and Empress Dowager shrugged, "I can't see clearly. I guess it's because it's too far away. I haven't practiced well yet. I'll practice more."

"Then you should practice more."

The emperor leaned closer to Yin Yunting and lowered his voice, "Xiao Yin, I've always wanted to ask you."

"what?"

"Can you please tell me if there is any way to make ghosts more powerful all of a sudden?"

The emperor chuckled and pointed at himself, "Look at me, even sending dreams is still limited by distance. It would be shameful if it got out. I think you must have a way to make ghosts practice quickly."

"Well..."

"Tell me now, in secret."

"Why don't you ask Senior Sister about this?"

"How embarrassing!" The emperor shook his head. "I am her father-in-law after all. I am her elder."

Haha, elder, why don’t you say this in front of Senior Sister?

Frog Brother suddenly came out as well.

"Huh! Why are you still here?" The emperor was startled.
