swish swish...

By the Daming Lake, it is still drizzling.

Wang Yuan and Huang Wu enjoyed the sumptuous banquet prepared by [Bing Linggong], and after confirming the details of the follow-up plan with him again, they left.

The two held up the Liuyu Hongchen Umbrella and walked along the Baizhang Covered Bridge erected on the lakeside.

This piece of lakes and mountains, which is famous throughout Chixian China, has not caught my eye.

At this time, both of them were thinking about the warning that [Bing Linggong] had repeatedly emphasized several times.

"Be careful of the black hand hiding in the cracks of history!"

The dozens of secular god incarnations of Lord Bingling are like the tentacles of an octopus, deeply bound to the entire human world, and they themselves live long enough.

Even if it is only an afterthought.

He has already gained insights into the unusual turns in major historical events, and has even had secret fights with Our Lady of the West several times.

But there is no [Xuanyuan Mirror] that is always in a passive defense state.

I don’t know where the turning point will come from, or when it will come, or even who will be the key figure in the next humanitarian torrent.

There is no doubt that most secret battles failed in the end.

The entire human race has stumbled all the way to the present in the struggle between these two sides.

In addition, [Bing Linggong] knows a little more inside information than Wang Yuan and Huang Wu.

From the dreams of the twelve ancient corpses, the two of them only noticed the elusive nine-tailed fox.

In fact, the closer to modern times, the richer the means available to Our Lady of the West.

Time is the best friend of the immortal.

[Nine Soldiers] It is certain that the power in the hands of this heavenly official is not only the "Peach Shinto".

Overlords of vassal states, famous reform ministers with outstanding achievements, champions with great military exploits... and even beggars holding broken bowls died suddenly and inexplicably.

Many times, changes in humanity have already occurred, and they realize that Our Lady of the West has taken action again.

Wang Yuan speculated that it was precisely this reversal of history that caused many dynasties and figures he was familiar with to disappear completely.

Let the entire history be changed beyond recognition.

But Lord Bingling also said that the nine-tailed fox named [The Kingdom and the City] is the most unsolvable of the many methods.

In the eyes of others, the beauty may be very normal, and they cannot tell the identity of the nine-tailed fox.

But there has never been any mission target that can resist her charm.

Never!

As the two of them walked, Huang Wu raised her slender elbow and nudged her Taoist companion, blinking her bright big eyes and teasingly:

"Hey, Wang Xiaoyuan, what are you thinking about?

You were in the dreamland of the twelve ancient corpses, but you used the "Hunjun Experience Card" to have fun with King Zhou You and his beacon fire play on the princes.

Even Baosi, the real nine-tailed fox, enjoyed it happily for several years, and even the prince gave birth to a child.

By the way, what's the name of that word you told me before? Oh, it's an old driver. You can't use the same posture on an old driver a second time.

Even if the charming nine-tailed fox really comes to your door, there should be no problem with your determination, right?"

"That's not necessarily the case!

Last time it was a dream created by the Yellow Liang Demon, so it’s hard to say how much of the nine-tailed fox’s true abilities have been retained.”

Wang Yuan held an umbrella with one hand and hugged his sister's slim willow waist with the other. He smelled the fragrance of laurel flowers in her hair and said with a serious face:

"Coach, I think I need a hands-on assault training!"

The girl raised her pretty face in Wang Yuan's arms and gave him a charming look:

“After carefully observing Myolie’s appearance, I have gained a new understanding recently.

It's not that it can't be arranged.

Nujiao, Chunhu, Meixi... Baosi, not only does it provide one-stop service, it also uses [Mirror Dividing Luanfeng] to let you learn double the knowledge at one time, okay?

Are there any costume requirements? The same style for a Western Region dancer, a Miao girl, a wealthy daughter, and a Cao thief, and... those silk stockings you secretly asked Xiao Fu to knit last time? Crystal slippers?"

The more he listened, the brighter Wang Yuan's eyes became.

"As for the teaching materials.

Recently, I secretly intercepted part of the collection of treasures that the herd of animals burned for the old man.

"Retirement and Leisure Banquet", "Spring Festival Picture Scroll", "Six Wonders of Flower Formation", "Mandarin Duck Secret Book", "Feng Yue Mechanism"... all seem to be authentic works by famous artists.

Xiaoyuan, why don’t we learn together...oh, criticize?"

"What? How dare they burn such things for the old man? Criticize! You must criticize!"

Wang Yuan looked at his sister's watery phoenix eyes and her fragrant cheeks that were slightly rosy. His heart was pounding and he nodded repeatedly like a chicken pecking at rice.

It's hard to say whether he can stop the nine-tailed fox.

But if Huang Wu uses the art of seduction on him, he will 100% be a powerless pickpocket in front of her!

But when I think about it from another angle, my confidence immediately increases.

Can a nine-tailed fox, an old sister who has lived from a matrilineal primitive society to this day, have as much fun as me, Mr. Wang?

pride!

It was still early, but Wang Yuan was not ready to wander around anymore.

In addition to the nine-tailed fox that they don't know when they will suddenly kill, they also have to strive to capture Yanzhou or Daizhou in a short period of time and gather a pair of Yin-Yang Cauldrons.

He was about to take Huang Wu back to prepare for the battle.

"Stop for me!"

Suddenly there was a loud shout from behind.

Wang Yuan raised his eyebrows, stopped, and cast a cold glance behind him.

On the lakeside corridor.

A young man wearing a black uniform and being guarded by a large group of armored [Taoist soldiers] in the center suddenly turned pale and subconsciously stopped.

The "Little Book of Life and Death" in Wang Yuan's sea of ​​knowledge opened by itself, displaying all the information about the person in front of him.

Chronicles: Shen Tuliang, 24 years old, the second son of Marshal Shen Tusheng in charge of [Tiechengguan], an important transport official in the "Iron Officials and Prisoners' Army"...

"Oh? Jeju Shentu?

Are you really saying that when Cao Cao arrives, this is actually the young master of the ‘Iron Official Prisoner Army’?”

Wang Yuan's eyes lit up.

There is a huge difference in size between the nine states in Chi County. Yuzhou, the smallest, has only eight prefectures, Yanzhou in the north has 31 prefectures, and Daizhou has fifteen prefectures.

Jeju City, the capital city at your feet, has both iron and coal mines. It was a famous iron smelting capital before hundreds of schools of thought were fully activated with knowledge.

In this day and age, it can almost be regarded as the center of heavy industry in the world and a representative of advanced productivity.

As for the "iron official prisoners", they are a special social class.

They were all sinners or sinners, and were deprived of their personal freedom by the court and sent to prison camps.

Under the supervision of iron officials, they were engaged in mining, iron smelting, ordnance making... and other hard labor.

Because the casting of certain Taoist equipment is beyond the capabilities of ordinary mortals, there are many "Tao soldiers" and "Tao generals" from different sources among these iron officials and prisoners.

As for the Shentu family, they were iron officials who were appointed by the Great Yan court. They mastered the core skills and carried the iron rice bowl. After the death of their father, they passed it down to their sons and passed it down from generation to generation.

Refer to the officialdom atmosphere in the middle and late period of the Great Yan Dynasty.

They rely on the imperial court's salt and iron franchise to rely on the mountain to feed off the mountain, and rely on the iron to feed the iron. They use this monopoly of good business to eat with their mouths full of oil.

Gradually it grew into a local power that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

Rising rapidly in troubled times.

Moreover, according to the information carefully collected by Prince Jing's Mansion, [Tiecheng Temple] is also somewhat related to the [Taiyi Xuanbing Dao] Taoist Temple in Daizhou.

In the beginning, they were actually one of the many small branches under the command of [Taiyi Xuanbing Dao].

Just like when [Taiyi Xuanbing Dao] established Yulong Zhi, the Great Yan court has been cultivating its own people and diluting the share of [Taiyi Xuanbing Dao].

No emperor with a normal IQ would allow [Xuanbingguan], which already controls high-end arms manufacturing, to get involved in the mid- to low-end ironmaking industry, which has a greater demand.

At that time.

Shentu Lie, the ancestor of Tiecheng Temple, realized that there was no hope of immortality, so he took advantage of the situation and led his followers to sell his goods to the emperor's family.

Later, this temple developed its own Taoism, and gradually evolved into a "descendants temple" spread only among people with the surname Shentu, completely independent from the "Xuanbing Temple".

100% of the sorcerers who have been initiated into Taoism here are descendants of the Shentu family and their wives.

The various techniques mastered by [Tiecheng Guan] are of course far from being comparable to the [Taiyi Xuan Weapon Dao] with [Yun Zhongjun], the immortal ancestor.
