Aunt Chen is back from the world of cultivation

Chapter 23 Killing the chicken to scare the monkey

The reason why Chen Qingzhu asked Li Qianhu to come along was mainly to completely destroy the arrogance of Ci'an and others, and to eliminate the unstable factors in Cihang Temple as much as possible without killing anyone.

"Speaking of which, there is another matter in the temple that needs to be handled by Captain Li himself."

Captain Li was about to say goodbye, but Chen Qingzhu suddenly said this.

As the first thing Chen Qingzhu mentioned since the two of them started working together, Captain Li naturally couldn't neglect it. Otherwise, how could it appear that working with him was better than working with Marquis Jingnan?

"Please let the angel of God make it clear."

Chen Qingzhu made a gesture of invitation and indicated that they could talk while walking.

"Ci'an, Huiyuan and the others were very disrespectful to me before. They also bullied the nuns and defiled the Temple of Master Cihang. I punished them to do hard labor to atone for their sins, but they seemed very unconvinced. They kept saying that they wanted to wait for Captain Li to come and make a decision for them..."

Captain Li has been in officialdom for a long time, so how could he not hear the hidden meaning in the words?

He gritted his teeth in his heart. This hateful woman not only seized power from Ci'an and others and tortured them, but also wanted him to punish them severely in person.

But now, with Marquis Jingnan around, he was not sure he could completely control this woman with mysterious powers, so he could not offend her rashly. He could only let her lead him by the nose for the time being.

Then we can only sacrifice Ci'an and others.

"It's just a small matter like this, the messenger of God can handle it as he pleases."

He acted as if he didn't care.

Chen Qingzhu kicked the ball back:

"Don't make it difficult for me, Captain. As the saying goes, one should look at the owner when beating a dog. It's better for the owner to beat this barking dog himself. Otherwise, if you beat it lightly, it will talk nonsense in front of the dignitaries in the future, affecting our plans. If you beat it too hard, wouldn't it make Captain feel distressed?"

Now that things have come to this, he not only has to beat her himself, but also beat her hard, otherwise he will not be able to satisfy this cunning woman.

Captain Li secretly hated it in his heart, but smiled apologetically:

"In that case, I will fight him myself and make sure the envoy of God is satisfied!"

Chen Qingzhu then revealed a happy smile:

"It's really refreshing to cooperate with Captain Li."

As they were talking, the two of them had already walked into the courtyard of Xiyuan.

Ci'an and Huiyuan were still being held hostage by Hui'an and Huiyun. Seeing Captain Li smiling at Chen Qingzhu, they were both in disbelief. Huiyuan, who could no longer hold his temper, was the first to shout unwillingly:

"Master Qian Hu! Kill that bitch Chen Qingzhu! She started a rebellion among the people of Jingci Temple. Not only did she injure Master and me, she also destroyed your property!"

Only then did Captain Li realize that the woman's name was Chen Qingzhu.

Compared with the benefits that Chen Qingzhu can bring to him, the secret brothel of Jingci Temple is really not worth mentioning.

Since he had already decided to win over Chen Qingzhu, how could he make her unhappy because of Ci'an and Huiyuan?

"Tell your men to let them go."

He said to Chen Qingzhu.

Chen Qingzhu nodded to Hui'an and Huiyun, and the two immediately put away their weapons and stepped aside.

"Lord Senhu!"

Huiyuan looked at Captain Li with hope.

Captain Li strode forward, kicked Huiyuan to the ground, and yelled:

"Bitch! How dare you speak such nonsense to the messenger of God? Come here and hold her down. I will cut off her tongue today to serve as a warning to others!"

His order was given to the nuns in the former Jingci Temple's Discipline Hall.

Hearing this, Huiyuan was shocked.

After being held down by someone, he came to his senses and screamed in fear:

"No! Master Qianhu, please spare me! I am loyal to you and Master!"

Seeing that Captain Li had pinched her mouth open and pulled out a knife with one hand, she was so scared that she wet her pants. Then she finally reacted and begged Chen Qingzhu for mercy:

"God's messenger! God's messenger! I know I was wrong! Please forgive me! Please forgive me!"

The face that used to be mean and vicious was now filled with tears and fear, and looked quite pitiful.

Chen Qingzhu will not be soft-hearted towards such a evil person.

Cihang Temple needs people to do hard labor. If we don't kill a chicken to scare the monkeys, how can the others completely surrender?

If anyone is to blame, it should be Huiyuan himself, for not knowing the current situation and jumping too high.

Since Chen Qingzhu did not make any statement, Captain Li would naturally not stop. He had participated in bandit suppression before and was extremely efficient when he took action.

The knife fell and Huiyuan's heart-wrenching screams rang out in the yard.

Seeing Chen Qingzhu's eyes sweeping over her, Ci'an was so scared that she collapsed to the ground, but she quickly got up and kowtowed:

"God's messenger! God's messenger! I have no disrespect for you! I am willing to work for you like a slave! Please forgive me!"

She is much smarter than Huiyuan. Not only did she not say anything rude before, but now she directly finds the culprit and begs for mercy.

After all, Ci'an had made many contributions to Captain Li, so Captain Li still had some feelings for her. Seeing her miserable appearance, he could not bring himself to kill her.

He did not act immediately, but waited for Chen Qingzhu's reaction.

Before achieving his goal, Chen Qingzhu did not intend to push Li Qianhu too hard. He glanced at Li Qianhu and said:

"For Captain Li's sake, I'll let you go this time."

Captain Li was very satisfied that Chen Qingzhu was willing to give him this face. He pointed a knife at Ci'an and warned him sternly:

"If you dare to disrespect the envoy of God again, or have any rebellious thoughts, I will kill you!"

No matter how unwilling Ci'an was, she knew that the situation was hopeless. She was just thankful to have saved her tongue, and she quickly expressed her loyalty after hearing this:

"Master! Sir! I would never dare to do that!"

He kowtowed to Chen Qingzhu again:

"From now on, I will be the master's dog. If he tells me to go east, I will never go west!"

The other hard laborers who had originally been eager to follow Huiyuan in rebellion were now all silent.

Their biggest backer is Captain Li. But now even Captain Li is so respectful and flattering to the new master, and he cuts off the tongue of Huiyuan, who used to be very popular in front of him. If these minions anger the new master, killing them will be as easy as killing a chicken.

Chen Qingzhu took in everyone's expressions and was satisfied.

"Okay, everyone go back to work on your own things."

He then sent Captain Li away.

In this way, the farce came to a successful end.

The Kundaoists, who were originally anxious and terrified, were now extremely excited.

They originally did not know that Ci'an and others had such a powerful backer. It was not until they were surrounded by Captain Li's troops today that they realized that a disaster was imminent.

I thought I was dead today, but the situation turned around as soon as the temple master went out for a while.

In just a few moments, the enemy who came to cause trouble turned into a supporter of the temple master.

"Hahaha, Ci'an and the others definitely didn't expect that the backer they had been waiting for so long finally came, but was subdued by our temple master in the blink of an eye! Let's see if they dare to make trouble again in the future!"

"That's good now. With Captain Li here, we don't have to worry about anyone causing trouble in Cihang Temple anymore!"

"Humph, our temple master is a messenger of God, favored by the gods. Who dares to cause trouble? Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning?"

"That's right! We have the Divine Envoy Master at Cihang Temple!"

After this incident, everyone admired Chen Qingzhu even more. They felt honored and proud to be a member of the Cihang Temple presided over by the divine messenger.

Even if Chen Qingzhu didn't take care of things, all the Kun Daoists would listen to her and follow her orders. As long as she gave an order, they would charge into battle without hesitation.
