Chapter 378 The murderous intention is hidden in secret, the snowy night river demon appears(1/2)
Earthly Immortal Magic Weapon?
Magical weapons are rare in the first place, and they are still relics of earthly immortals...
The old man of the Luo family was surprised and did not dare to ask any more questions.
A treasure of this level is enough to make people crazy. He is just a messenger. Even if he dies here, the family will not pursue him.
Shangguan Qiu smiled indifferently and ignored it. He looked at the Bawang Ferry in the morning mist, with murderous intent floating in his eyes.
The Luo family provoked the Earthly Immortals, and the Yong'an Mansion Army at the ferry. These were not important. They didn't know there was a treasure here, so they only needed to provoke a conflict between the two parties.
The trouble is that those Black Mountain believers have made all arrangements to obtain treasures, and they must be cleared first...
Thinking of this, Shangguan Qiu no longer hesitated and ordered in a deep voice: "Inform the shore that the Eight Kings Crossing Demon is causing trouble. I am ordered to search for the demon and go to each house to find it for me!"
As soon as the order was given, two thousand sergeants poured out of each cabin. They were heavily armored but flexible, leaping into the air, stepping on the copper chains across the canal, clattering to the shore to assemble, and quickly entered the ferry.
When the old man from the Luo family on the boat saw it, he quickly complimented him: "I heard that Captain Shangguan had been training in the border army when he was young. He is really good at training."
"Brother Luo is joking."
Shangguan Qiu's eyes were not impressed, and he said solemnly: "I have inquired about it. When the Yong'an Prefecture army came, they actually used the formation escape technique to walk on the water. In terms of elites, they are not inferior to the frontier troops."
"Wang Xuan single-handedly forced each family to send out senior talents, who can bear the reputation of Bingzhou's fierce tiger. He is worthy of being a person valued by the prince. With such a talented soldier, it is natural for him to be stationed in the Taotie Army."
What he said made the old man of the Luo family stunned.
Unexpectedly, Shangguan Qiu changed the topic and said with a smile: "But, the power of the Taotie Army cannot be controlled by it. If you know how to fight, you can destroy the city and build the stronghold. We only need to rob the Southern Jin clan's heritage in the rear.
"
"Your Luo family wants power just to protect themselves, but what my family wants is lizi. Brother Luo, please convey the original words. This is what my family wants."
"After all, it's a pity that Tiger Si is trapped in the trap. Why not put a rein on it for us to use!"
After hearing this, the old man of the Luo family felt uncertain in his eyes.
Dayan established the Taotie Army, and the royal families had different legal demands and could be roughly divided into three factions.
One faction gathered under the prince's command, mainly from northern aristocratic families, but there were exceptions. For example, the Wei family in Liangzhou was very ambitious, and the Linghu family in Dianzhou wanted to control the navy, so they also joined the prince's side.
One faction is the southern states headed by the Luo family. They are only separated from the Southern Jin Dynasty by the Jiuqu Tianhe. They secretly trade with each other and make a lot of profits. They will become the front line when the war begins. When the time comes, the army will gather and station. If they don't have the power, they will be manipulated by others.
There is another group from the central states, whose attitude is unclear.
He came here this time not only to stop Wang Xuan, but also to win over the central states.
Now it seems that these companies just want to take advantage of the chaos.
Shangguanqiu's meaning is very clear.
These families in the central part will not hinder Wang Xuan, but they will restrict his rights and seek benefits in the war.
Similarly, if the southern states headed by the Luo family send out talented people to lead the army, they will not mind, and they will also need to exchange benefits.
Greedy, too greedy!
The old man from the Luo family's face remained unchanged, but he was sneering in his heart.
How could it be so easy to seek skin from a tiger? Wang Xuan even tricked the ancestors of the Wei family. These families are simply whimsical!
Although he was slandering in his heart, the old man smiled modestly on his face and said, "I will definitely bring you what Mr. Shangguan said."
While talking, there was already a chaos at the ferry.
The three sects and nine streams of Bawangdu gathered together. The traveling merchants who were trapped here did not dare to say anything, but some bloody ones would inevitably have quarrels with the government troops, or even fight.
Rest, rest, rest!
"Killing people!"
Inside the inn, a young man in white robe was stunned.
The day before yesterday, he had a quarrel with a disciple of the thieves, and was stolen and taken away by him. When he caught up with him, he was beaten up, and he was trapped here, quite miserable.
Just now, the man had a dispute with the Heyuan Prefecture army. He tried to escape due to his skill, but was shot into a hedgehog.
In just a few days, the romantic world has become so cruel.
Wandering around the rivers and lakes, life and death are unpredictable,
The battlefield is crisscrossed, and corpses are wrapped in horse leather.
There was already a trace of regret in the white-robed young master's eyes.
Going home to serve your parents may be a better choice...
…
Elder Chen of the Sihaimen looked ugly. He had suffered a lot from the fuss made by the government army.
More importantly, the remaining prestige of Sihaimen has disappeared. I am afraid that it will no longer be able to control the situation in the future, and it is inevitable that the trees will fall and the hozens will scatter...
Paijiao Elder Liu’s eyes were even more gloomy.
The platoon instructors died, and they were the focus of the investigation. The government soldiers were careless and left a mess.
Doubts also arose in their hearts.
Shangguan Qiu is also a veteran, and he has offended so many people at the same time. What on earth does he want to do?
As for Elder Wu on the red light boat, he is not worried at all.
The good friend, the immortal monk, hid in an underground secret room and used a formation to isolate the Qi breath. The sergeant who rushed in to search was all attracted by the scantily clad women.
While the words were being teased, the lake passed easily.
As for the Yong'an Prefecture Army garrison, no one disturbed it.
There was a lot of fussing and they didn't stop until noon.
The Heyuan Prefecture army was looking for Taoist Huangmei, but the one causing trouble here was the immortal monk, so naturally they found nothing.
Wang Xuan watched with cold eyes. He knew that Shangguan Qiu's move was not simple. He was probably doing it for the treasure in the river, just like the Black Mountain Cult.
What is it that is so attractive...
…
Unconsciously, night fell again.
It had just been a sunny day, and the sky was once again cloudy, the moon was dark, and there was a lot of snow.
Squeak, squeak, squeak...
The little lanterns swayed slightly in the night wind, illuminating the snow on the ground dimly, and the wine shops and teahouses were also quiet.
Knowing that the demon is hiding to kill people, both Jianghu tourists and traveling businessmen are frightened and dare not sleep, let alone drink and have fun.
It was quiet late at night, with only the footsteps of the Heyuan Prefecture Army patrolling in formation coming from the streets, giving people a slight sense of security.
In the Yong'an Prefecture Army garrison.
Ah Fu, who was lying on the ground, suddenly raised his head, his ears trembled, and he growled lightly.
Wang Xuan, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. When he took out the circular light splitting mirror, Xiaobai also turned into a black shadow and flew silently into the night sky.
On the circular light splitting mirror, the entire Bawangdu and surrounding mountains and rivers are in view.
I didn't pay much attention to it during my training last night, so tonight Wang Xuan naturally asked Ah Fu to monitor the movement of the ferry at all times.
Today's circular light splitting mirror refining method has been deduced and upgraded, and the Lingqi formation can be viewed, which is not inferior to the original version in the hands of the old demon Huang Yuanzi.
Inside the ferry, all kinds of lights flashed.
The most eye-catching ones are naturally the Yong'an Mansion Army, with blood boiling in the sky and covering the entire station.
Next is the Heyuan Prefecture Army. After they divided their forces, some of their warships stayed behind and some of them patrolled the ferry. They did not form a military formation. The blood color was extremely thin, but the formation of the iron chain across the river was extraordinary.
Then came Sihaimen, Paijiao, Assassinmen and other Dharma lineage stations, all of which set up formations to defend themselves. Some were filled with dense clouds, or some were surging with water.
Even in various inns, many people from all walks of life have placed formation flags in their rooms, or simply offered ritual objects.
Throughout the ferry, there were countless frightened birds.
Wang Xuan looked at the largest brothel in the ferry.
Ah Fu heard a vague and strange sound, which was coming from this place. Moreover, the Red Lantern Fang was not weak in strength, but it did not arrange any formation, which was really suspicious.
What's even more strange is that Afu clearly heard the movement, but the circular light splitting mirror could not see the fluctuations of spiritual energy. What kind of magic is so powerful?
Wang Xuan became more and more curious. He left the wing and gave an explanation, then silently jumped into the air and landed on a tall building at Sihaimen like a big bird. He turned far away and turned around.
There is nothing unusual about Yang eyes looking at Qi.
Looking at the soul with a dark eye, I found something strange!
I saw a faint aura rising from the rockery in the backyard of the brothel. It looked like the Black Mountain Cult's prostitute worshiper, the evil god Black Stone. The aura flickered around him, and a strange wave spread outward.
This force seemed to ignore the barriers of the formation and quickly enveloped several people in Sihaimen and some Jianghu people in the inn.
The souls of those people began to tremble violently, and the seven evil souls seemed to be about to escape from their bodies.
Dream marriage!
To be continued...
