Chapter Thirteen: Ambush
The beautiful woman thought for a while, then nodded and said: "That's fine, but I don't worry about others. It's better for you to go in person. If necessary, you can take action at any time."
Liu Ziyu was slightly surprised and couldn't help but frown and said: "Does mother really want to kill Zhen Yuandao's apprentice? Although mother and uncle join forces, they are not afraid of Zhen Yuandao, but if the matter is exposed, father will be involved again.
, it will not end well by then."
The beautiful woman sighed: "Yu'er, how come my mother didn't know this plan and took risks! But since four or five years ago, your father has gone crazy and has become more and more alienated from my mother. In the past two years, he has become more and more alienated from me."
He regards me as an enemy. Originally, with my cultivation, I could still defeat him, but this time he did not know where he got the secret method of refining the Xuan Yin Beast Gathering Banner. He also got the help of Zhen Yuan Dao to capture many ferocious beasts.
Jinghun. Once he refines this flag, even if I join forces with your uncle, I may not be able to defeat him. Originally, I wanted your uncle to cut off Zhenyuan Road halfway, but unfortunately the success failed and he was almost seriously injured.
At this point, I have no other choice but to make this move."
Seeing the woman's sad expression, Liu Ziyu felt more and more distressed, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, mother, the child will just be obedient."
The beautiful woman said: "You keep an eye on him first, and don't act in a hurry. The Xuanyin Gathering Beast Banner is a treasure of the magic way, and it is not easy to make. If they fail, it will be the best. If it succeeds, you
So he immediately started to kill Zhen Yuandao's disciple. When Zhen Yuandao came to investigate, your father had to protect you no matter what, plus your mother and your uncle, it was enough to beat Zhen Yuandao seriously and escape. At that time, your father not only
Without strong support, there will be an enemy, and we two are inseparable. Finally, I will force him to pass the Xuan Yin Beast Gathering Banner to you, so as not to stay and become a disaster."
Originally, he felt a little guilty about letting Liu Ziyu plot against his father with his mother, but when the woman said that she would give him the Xuan Yin Beast Flag, his eyes suddenly lit up, and all the guilt in his heart was thrown away.
The sky was clear, with a smile on his face, he obeyed the order and left.
The beautiful woman also breathed a sigh of relief and followed him outside. Seeing him gradually walking away, she turned around and waved to a screen, saying: "Brother, Yu'er has left, come out!
"
As soon as these words fell, a sigh came from behind the screen, and then a middle-aged scholar with elegant appearance walked out. It was Zheng Yuan who had planned to intercept Zhen Yuandao halfway before.
Zheng Yuan walked up to the woman, raised his head and looked at Liu Ziyu's back. He was silent for a long time, and then said sadly: "Little sister, I have suffered so much for you these years!"
A strange look flashed in the woman's eyes, and then she returned to the couch and said calmly: "It's not bitter, that's what it is! Back then, you and Master forced me to marry in order to monopolize the thousands of miles of Dengping Mansion.
Give it to Liu Tianwei, now that Ziyu is grown up, what’s the point of talking about it anymore.”
Zheng Yuan shook his head, as if he felt he was wrong, and said no more. At the same time, Zhang Tong sent Liu Ziyu away and returned to the house. He didn't know that someone was plotting his life.
There was no one around at this time, so he hurriedly untied the gourd tied around his waist. Previously, he was not allowed to take a closer look in the underground secret room because he was nervous. When he took it out this time, he was not distracted, moving up and down.
I took a thorough look below.
Unfortunately, Zhang Tong couldn't find any clues after looking for a long time, which made him feel a little discouraged. But then he thought again, if the trick can be discovered so easily, this gourd has long been regarded as a treasure by Liu Tianwei, how could he have the chance to fall into it?
On his hands.
Zhang Tong immediately cheered up, remembering the three talisman arrows he got last time. Zhen Yuandao had ordered him to wash them with jing blood before using them. Could it be that this gourd also needs to be infected with jing blood to activate the restrictions in it?
A thought flashed in his mind, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible it became. He couldn't help but try it. He squeezed out a few drops of blood and wiped it on the gourd. He also tried to inject his true energy, concentrated his thoughts, held Yuan Shouyi, and wanted to put that
The gourd started to move.
Unexpectedly, the gourd seemed like a dead thing. No matter how he moved it, there was no response.
Zhang Tong frowned and couldn't help but secretly thought: "Is it because he doesn't have enough blood?"
The blood of the middle finger is originally the essence of the human body, especially those who practice Taoism, and they pay more attention to the abundance of Qi and blood. If the essence and blood are lost too much, it will not only damage one's cultivation, but also leave hidden wounds, which will affect future achievements.
Zhang Tong had just squeezed out a few drops of essence blood in one breath, and he had already lost money. If he wanted to do it again, he would have to lose his vitality. Although he had high hopes for the gourd, he was unwilling to destroy the foundation of his cultivation for the sake of a treasure.
Moreover, after cultivating to a certain level, one can also extend one's lifespan. For example, an ordinary person will be exhausted at the age of seventy or eighty. But once one has cultivated his true energy, he can live to be a hundred years old, with sharp ears and eyesight, and a walk as fast as flying. If he can go one step further and open up the
The acupuncture points all over the body can break through the mysteries of heaven and earth and reach the state of 'transformation into gods'. They can even extend their lifespan for thousands of years and become immortal.
Zhang Tong knew very well that no matter how powerful the magic weapon was, if his own cultivation was not good enough, everything would be futile when his life span was over. He had no choice but to give up the idea and think of other ways. He kept tossing until late at night, but he still couldn't tinker with the gourd.
Make a name for yourself.
This made him a little discouraged, so he had to give up temporarily and leave it to study later. However, at this moment, when he was about to put the gourd away, he discovered that there was a groove under the gourd.
Just now, Zhang Tong was only studying the magical functions of this gourd and didn't notice that there was a groove underneath. Now he freed his hand and couldn't help but look at it a few more times and found that there was a mechanism in the groove, which could just fit a bead into it.
Zhang Tong suddenly had an idea and suddenly realized, "No wonder I can't move this gourd despite all my efforts. There must be something missing here!"
Zhang Tong thought to himself, and became more and more certain that this groove must be the key to activating the gourd. He couldn't help but secretly regret that he had missed the most important thing in the secret room without looking carefully.
In fact, he also knew in his heart that when Liu Tianwei got the gourd, there would probably be nothing embedded underneath, but even if there was a glimmer of hope, he would not give up easily. He made a little calculation in his mind, hurriedly put the gourd away, and couldn't wait to get it out.
Outside the house, avoiding the crowds and others, he ran straight to the small building he had just visited.
At this moment, Liu Ziyu got his mother's promise to give him the Xuan Yin Beast Banner when things were done, and he rushed back to stare at Zhang Tong.
Seeing Zhang Tong running out in a hurry, his mind suddenly moved, and he thought to himself: "What is Zhen Yuandao, this good-for-nothing disciple, going to do in such a hurry? Could he be hiding some shady deeds?"
Liu Ziyu was suspicious, fearing that Zhang Tong would ruin his good deeds, so he did not dare to neglect him, so he hurriedly followed behind him.
Originally, Liu Ziyu's cultivation level was higher than Zhang Tong's. Moreover, Zhang Tong was so anxious at this time that he didn't even notice that someone was following him. He just walked outside the small building and was very familiar with the road. He jumped up to the second floor and in a blink of an eye.
In a short time, the person disappeared.
Since Liu Tianwei had obtained the flying sword, he had always regarded it as a treasure and never revealed it to anyone. Therefore, Liu Ziyu did not know that there was a secret room hidden under this small building.
Seeing Zhang Tong entering, he followed closely, but no one was there, which immediately changed his face. The entrance to the secret room was very cleverly designed, and it would be difficult for anyone to discover it if he didn't know it in advance.
Liu Ziyu searched for a while, but still found nothing. He was afraid of making any noise and alerting others, so he had to give up. However, he was also very patient and could not find anyone for a while, so he did not feel discouraged. He simply searched outside the small building.
Hiding somewhere, just wait and see, Zhang Tong is expected to come out sooner or later.
At this time, Zhang Tong didn't know that he had been targeted by Liu Ziyu. He only wanted to find the thing that was supposed to be embedded under the gourd. He entered the secret room and immediately searched for it.
Unfortunately, things didn't work as expected. No matter how careful he was, except for the nine-child mother's yin soul array in the middle, he searched almost the entire secret room and couldn't find a single matching object.
Zhang Tong thought to himself that he had not missed anything, and couldn't help feeling a little discouraged. He knew that that thing was probably not here. He did not dare to touch the Nine Sons Mother Yin Soul Array, and had searched other places no less than three times. If it was missing,
It's here, you can't find it yet.
Zhang Tong tidied up the messy secret room with half interest. He felt that nothing unusual could be seen, so he didn't dare to stay for a long time and went up the ladder. Then he turned out of the small building and was about to return along the original road, but unexpectedly, he didn't come back.
When I left the courtyard, I suddenly heard a sneer coming from behind me, saying: "Junior Brother Zhang Tong, where are you going in such a hurry?"
Zhang Tong was immediately startled. He turned around and looked around, only to see Liu Ziyu, with a malicious look on his face, walking out from under the shadow of a dark tree.
