Chapter 9 Red-butted Monkey
Qiu Yin's gloomy and dark expression eased a little.
Li Anran brought the monkey demon over at this time. Although it could not save his lost face, it at least prevented him from losing face.
"Yang Jian, I will remember what happened today!" Qiu Yin said in a cold voice.
However, Yang Jian didn't even look at him. His gaze paused for a moment on Li Anran, then he turned around and rode away on a cloud.
The Meishan brothers and a group of grass-headed gods hurried to follow.
In just a moment, it disappeared.
Outside the prison gate, there were only a group of heavenly soldiers and generals sitting on the ground with terrified expressions and monsters who were tied up and unable to move.
Qiu Yin watched Yang Jian and the others walk away. He no longer cared about maintaining the situation and hurriedly walked to the heavenly soldiers and generals to check their conditions.
The pupils of the heavenly soldiers and generals were dilated and their eyes were unfocused, as if they were trapped in an illusion.
Qiu Yin immediately chanted a spell to dispel the illusion, pointed a finger at the brow of the heavenly soldier in front of him, and shouted, "Remove it!"
The soldier's body trembled, and his pupils shrank for a moment, but the next second, they returned to their previous state...
No!
It should have become more serious!
Previously, the heavenly soldier was just trembling with fear, but now he opened his mouth wide, gasping for breath, and his body began to become transparent.
"not good!"
Qiu Yin's face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly used his magic power to nourish the soldier. After a lot of effort, he finally eased the condition of the soldier.
Qiu Yin didn't dare to act rashly again.
Although these heavenly soldiers and generals can be resurrected after death, it takes a very long time for them to re-nurture a body with the five senses and six consciousnesses like a normal person.
This is also the reason why the heavenly soldiers and generals hesitate when facing the monkey demon.
"What exactly happened just now?" Qiu Yin asked Li Anran.
He was far away and was confronting Yang Jian, so he couldn't devote much energy to the monkey demon.
The monkey demon only glanced at the heavenly soldiers and generals, and they fell to the ground. It was not clear what exactly happened.
Li Anran truthfully recounted the incident about the giant ape illusion he had seen.
"Of course I thought I was dead, so I tried to fight it. But I didn't expect that the illusion was just a show, it shattered when I touched it, and then I woke up."
“This shouldn’t be the case…”
Qiu Yin frowned and muttered to himself.
Even though his old subordinates had been living in peace in Heaven for a long time and their character and courage were far less than they used to be, it was not the case that not even one of them dared to resist!
Moreover, there were quite a few grass-headed gods standing near the monkey demon just now, but they were not hurt at all!
Suddenly, Qiu Yin seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he shouted, "I understand! So that's it! So that's it!"
Seeing Li Anran's confused expression, he explained, "That monkey demon... no, it should be Yang Jian who used the monkey demon to target the gods! That's why the plant spirits under his command were not affected! That's why Wang Yi and the others were affected!"
"But he didn't expect that you were a newly promoted celestial soldier from the lower world. Although you also enjoy a bit of the incense luck of the heavenly court, you are not a god on the Conferred God List. That's why you escaped the disaster!"
Qiu Yin became more and more excited as he spoke, feeling that he had finally caught Yang Jian.
"Great! What a great God of Justice! He actually developed this method to deal with his colleagues! Don't blame me for being rude!"
Targeting the gods?!
Li Anran's heart trembled, as if he had just woken up from a dream and was enlightened. He suddenly realized where the sense of familiarity he had sensed before came from.
However, he quickly suppressed his emotions.
Just pretend you know nothing.
"Go to the prison and call some people out to lock these monsters in."
Qiu Yin glanced at the monkey demon in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and decided to take precautions.
He took out a token from his bosom and threw it to Li Anran: "Take this token and personally escort this monkey demon to the A cell. I will be back soon."
Qiu Yin made a magical gesture and summoned a cloud of mist, which lifted him and the heavenly soldiers and generals on the ground and flew away into the distance.
…
On the other side, the Temple of Justice.
Yang Jian had already taken off his silver armor cloak and was wearing only a dark casual suit. He sat at his desk, flipping through the clan files in front of him.
Sometimes he picked up the pen to outline, sometimes he circled the key points, and he wrote quickly as he made judgments one by one.
On both sides below.
The Meishan brothers exchanged glances, trying to get the other to speak, but one pushed the other, and no one was willing to step forward.
"If you have anything you want to ask, just say it." Yang Jian suddenly spoke without even raising his head.
"ah?"
The brothers were shocked, but finally it was the eldest brother Kang who stepped forward and said, "Second Master, there is nothing for us to ask! We will do whatever you ask us to do!"
"I don't have anything to ask. Why are you standing here?"
Yang Jian put down the clan file in his hand and said, "You all usually think this Judicial Heavenly God Temple is too quiet. Except for the fourth brother who is willing to stay and help me, who among you is willing to stay here longer?"
Boss Kang laughed awkwardly, "Second Master knows us! Except for the Fourth Master, everyone feels dizzy after seeing those words!"
Except for Li Laosi, the others also said, "Boss is right! Second Master, you and Laosi are the ones who work hard, and we can just run errands and do odd jobs!"
"It's fine for us to fight and show some strength, but it's hard for us to read these scrolls!"
"That's it! I can't do it! I can't do it!"
…
“You guys!”
Yang Jian shook his head helplessly, and then said seriously: "Since you don't want to talk first, I have something to ask you about your thoughts."
Seeing Yang Jian's serious expression, the Meishan brothers hurriedly said, "Second Master, just tell me what you want to say."
Yang Jian said: "My brothers, I have been the God of Justice in heaven for forty-eight years, and you have been with me for forty-three years. Outsiders do not know the inside story, but I know that I can do a good job as the God of Justice, all thanks to your help."
"Second Master!" The Meishan brothers were flattered and were about to deny it, but Yang Jian raised his hand to stop them.
Yang Jian continued, "I know you came to heaven to help me and fulfill our brotherhood. But you have devoted so much effort to the peace of the Three Realms, and you cannot be ignored, let alone humiliated. I intend to ask the Jade Emperor for your contribution. What do you think?"
The Meishan brothers looked at each other and said in unison: "It's all up to Second Master."
Today, they were ridiculed by Qiu Yin at the gate of Tianlao as outsiders. It would be a lie for them not to feel aggrieved.
It was only because of Yang Jian's order that he held back and did not lose his temper.
After returning to the Temple of Justice, they thought the matter was over, but they didn't expect that Yang Jian took it to heart.
Hearing Yang Jian's words at this time, even Boss Kang, who cared the least about fame, wealth and power, was delighted.
The other brothers, especially Li Laosi, were overjoyed.
He had been waiting for this day for a long time.
But since Yang Jian didn't speak, and his brothers didn't speak either, he didn't know how to speak either.
"This is what you deserve, but it's because I'm so late."
Seeing this, Yang Jian realized that he had neglected the thoughts and feelings of the Meishan brothers over the years, and felt a little guilty: "We brothers have known each other for many years. If you have anything to say in the future, just speak up, don't be restrained."
Li Laosi hesitated for a moment and expressed his doubts: "Second Master, that Guansuo Star Lord Qiu Yin is obviously looking for trouble today, trying to embarrass Second Master. Since Second Master has already taken action, why did he let that heavenly soldier go?"
The other Meishan brothers also looked at Yang Jian, obviously having the same doubts.
Yang Jian did not answer directly, but asked: "Old Four, it took us four years to capture the Yuxiong King. Why?"
Li Laosi didn't understand why Yang Jian suddenly asked this, but he still answered: "Because the mountain gods, land gods, river gods and water gods within a million miles of Yingbo Mountain have all been subdued by this demon monkey. They obey its orders and act as its eyes and ears. If we get close, we will alert them and they will discover us, so they will prepare for it in advance."
"That's why we had to gradually eliminate its spies from the periphery, and finally catch it by surprise while it was entertaining its demon kings."
Yang Jian asked again: "Why do those mountain gods and land gods obey its orders? Why do they even dare to attack the heavenly soldiers? They are not afraid of death?"
Li Laosi was startled, then suddenly came to his senses: "Second Master, are you saying that the evildoer has the means to control the minds of the mountain gods and the land gods?"
Yang Jian nodded and said, "Detain the spirits and send the generals."
"ah?!"
Boss Kang at the side couldn't help but ask: "Second Master, is it so powerful to summon spirits and send generals?"
"Other people don't have it, but that demon monkey is different."
Yang Jian explained, "It is the red-butted horse monkey among the four great spirit monkeys. It is born with the ability to understand yin and yang, human affairs, and is good at coming and going. It can avoid death and prolong life. With the guidance of a master, it has a deep attainment in the art of arresting spirits and sending generals. That is why it has earned the name of the Great Saint who drives away the gods."
"Even if the magic power is sealed and the soul cannot be activated, it can still be used, but the power will be greatly reduced."
"After I captured it, I used my Heavenly Eye to seal its five senses and six senses in fear of any accidents. Just now, Qiu Yin said something rude, so I released the Heavenly Eye."
