After finishing the conversation with Ai Bogao, Feng Taoist clarified the matter to Zhang Yu and Dao, and asked: "Friend Daoist Zhang, do you want to allow this person to stay outside?"
Zhang Yu said categorically: "A Youcheng monk who has not surrendered to me, Tianxia, is still a Youcheng monk. How can I trust his temporary words? If he says today that he can come to surrender to me, he will not be able to surrender to me in the future.
I can go elsewhere."
Feng Dao Ren said: "Feng also has such considerations, but Ai Bogao was originally a true cultivator. Now he has become a Hunzhang monk. Even if he wants to return to his original place, he is no longer trusted by others. Consider
At this point, does it mean that he has the intention to vote for me?"
Zhang Yudao: "If he sincerely surrenders to me, then if I ask him to submit to me now, he should obey in time, otherwise he will be lying and making plans for the future."
The Feng Taoist thought for a while and said: "It is not difficult to catch this person, but what he said about the evil god possessing many magical weapons is probably not a lie. If he surrendered, these magical weapons would probably fall into the hands of the evil god.
I’m afraid this will leave consequences.”
Zhang Yudao: "The cultivator's weapon is in the hands of the evil god and it is difficult to exert its power. It must be used by the cultivator, otherwise it will not be used to find Ai Bogao. I don't know about it. Since I know it, I naturally want to pursue it to the end."
.”
After talking to Feng Taoist, he immediately found the location of Aibo Gao's famous seal. Ai Bogao saw movement coming from the Xuntian Dao Seal. He immediately paid attention to it, but found that it was not the person who had just spoken to him, but him.
He didn't dare to be negligent and lowered his attitude and said, "May I ask what this superior has ordered?"
Zhang Yudao: "Your Majesty, are you willing to join me, Tianxia?"
Alberto quickly expressed his position: "Exactly."
Zhang Yudao: "Well, you can stop in Youcheng. Someone will come to find you later and lead you to my Tianxia."
Albergo suddenly faltered, "This..."
Zhang Yudao: "You don't have to worry about being punished. The news you brought and the Qingling Tianzhi in your hand are all great achievements. As long as you have never harmed the Tianxia cultivators in the past, I can
I will report this matter to the court and try my best to eliminate your previous guilt of fleeing."
Ai Bogao's mind started to spin. If he immediately surrendered to Tianxia, wouldn't he get no benefits at all? And could he get away with just such a thing and this news in his hand? How could he believe what the other party said?
However, after hearing Zhang Yu say that he could speak before Xuanting, he felt that the other party might be a certain court official, so he asked cautiously: "Dare you ask for your honorable name?"
Zhang Yu said quietly: "I am Zhang Yu."
Ai Bogao was shocked. He was originally sitting there, but now he straightened up, and his tone naturally became more respectful, "It turns out to be Zhang Shangzun! Ai is rude."
In the battle with Shang Chentian, Youcheng watched the whole process. Although he did not join the battle, he also saw Zhang Yu blocking Huanyang, and the Shenzhao two factions attacked, killing two people in succession.
Send several monks to harvest superior merits.
He was in awe of this person. Now that he knew that he was actually talking to this person, he immediately said: "I am willing to obey Zhang Shangzun's instructions and return to Tianxia."
Zhang Yu nodded and said: "Ai Daoxiu, since you agree, then you can wait for Zhu Shouzheng to come find you. Just be careful of the evil god."
Alberto said gratefully: "Yes, I will be careful. Thank you Zhang Shangzun for reminding me."
After he finished speaking, he realized that Zhang Yu's thoughts were gone, and he couldn't help but sigh. Although it was a pity that he couldn't get the things, it was a good thing to be relieved of his guilt and return to Tianxia.
In the past, Youcheng had a group of Taoist friends who could rely on each other, and there were powerful people on top to look after them. Now he is alone and unable to support himself. He doesn't know when he will be captured and taken back, so he might as well take the initiative to join him earlier.
On the other side, although Zhu Feng was led astray just now, she quickly discovered the problem and tried her best to return to the right path.
At this time, a female disciple came over, took a rubbing book, and said: "Teacher, the court is reporting."
Zhu Feng took a look and her eyes lit up. After confirming that the rubbings were correct, she immediately activated the star boat and accelerated towards the secluded city.
The inner layer, deep in the East Courtyard.
After Ban Lan and the two got off the flying boat, they stood in the distance and sensed for a moment. They saw that the basin in front of them was completely silent. It seemed that there was no one in it. But if there is also a supernatural power to protect it, then some things cannot be sensed.
Arrived.
Ban Lan signaled, and He Li immediately released a very clever-looking gray leopard cub. This was a magical creature that they had carefully raised in Fuzhou. It was very humane and not weak in combat power. It could help them first.
Explore the situation step by step.
After waiting patiently for more than a summer, the little gray leopard returned safely and barked at them twice.
He Li raised his chin slightly, and the little thing immediately turned over on the ground, revealing its four claws. He took a look and saw a thin layer of red mud under its soles. He turned around and said, "Sir, this should be it."
Already."
Ban Lan glanced at it, looked forward, and said, "Let's go." As soon as the two of them took a step, the little gray leopard immediately turned over and quickly ran forward.
The two of them followed the path of this little thing, and soon a wide stone road appeared under their feet, with ruts on it. They followed this and came to the edge of the basin.
Standing at a high point and going down, the sight is almost entirely red soil, with some areas showing dark brown color. There are regular holes in the center, showing traces of excavation.
Ban Lan reached out and picked up a piece of red mud, rubbed it on his fingers, nodded and said, "This is it."
Zhang Yu ordered him to search for the Fushenhui. He did not search randomly, but based on the clues given by Zhang Yu and some previous discoveries in Dongting, he sorted out an easily overlooked but very crucial clue.
That is the clay from which the potters of the Restoration of God are shaped.
This soil is not dug casually. A very unique red mud is used in it, which cannot be seen anywhere else.
He felt that this was a breakthrough. After consulting a large number of documents and personally asking among the indigenous tribes, he finally roughly delineated the scope and searched all the way to this place.
The soil under your feet can be said to have the same origin.
He Li took the initiative to go down to check. After a long time, he turned back and said: "Sir, there is no one down there. I checked several potholes and there are still some residues in one place."
Ban Lan said: "Go over and take a look."
He followed He Li into the pit. There were some unshaped pottery figures inside, most of which were heads, bodies, limbs and other parts. The red clay was crushed into pieces and piled aside.
They are all shaped into one shape.
He Li said: "Sir, I took a look. The most recent traces were from three years ago. This place should have been abandoned. It seems that this generation left in a bit of a hurry, and many things were left behind."
Ban Lan said: "Three years ago, it was the time when Cui Xuanzheng's attack on the Restoration Society was at its peak. I have read the records. The last conflict with the Restoration Society was not too far away from here. It should be that the Restoration Society was afraid that Cui Xuanzheng would follow the clues.
I found this place, so I hurriedly evacuated.
He Li looked around and said with some regret, "Although I walked in a hurry, I didn't leave many traces."
Ban Lan said: "That's not necessarily the case. Why do they have to dig out this soil?"
He Li said: "Because this kind of red soil is the only one here." Then he reflected, "Sir, are you saying that this soil has a unique significance to the Restoration of Gods?"
Ban Lan said: "Go out and have a look."
After he came outside the pit, he stood on tiptoe and instantly rose into the sky, reaching the sky. He Li also followed him up. Now he looked down. When he reached the height, the land looked like a ball the size of a fist.
Already.
If the turbid tide was very strong, it would be impossible to see the situation below from this height, but now that the turbid tide is lighter, you can vaguely see the situation below.
Ban Lan said at this time: "What do you think this looks like?"
"like what?"
He Li received this reminder and carefully distinguished it. Suddenly, his heart was shocked. He found that if he zoomed in on the field of vision instead of staring at one place, then the earth was clearly a human-shaped pattern, and the bright red basin happened to be located
Above the human heart!
And this human figure has both hands raised. Looking at the figure, it seems that it is trying its best to lift something up, but that part is covered by a large dense forest.
He suddenly became excited and pointed: "Sir, there are indeed traces of this!"
Ban Lan looked in the direction where the hands were holding up and said, "Let's go there and have a look."
He Li said yes.
The two fell down again, this time directly into the dense forest, and the scene in front of them made He Li's breath hitch.
There is a large smooth jade ground below, pure white in color, spreading for several miles, showing a neat disk shape, and further away, there are smaller disks of jade, like white chess pieces.
Pinned to the ground, the chess pieces are huge and numerous, and they look like stars in the sky.
He said: "Sir, what is this?"
Ban Lan judged: "It should be some kind of ritual, but I'm not a naturalist, otherwise I might be able to identify some of its origins based on these things."
He Li said: "Sir, why don't you cut these off and go back to identify them?"
Ban Lan said: "Don't be in a hurry, go somewhere else and take a look, maybe you can still gain something."
The two of them walked around other parts of the humanoid, and they found something different. There were unique patterns on the feet and even the waist and abdomen of the humanoid. He Li cut them out one by one, and then
He said: "It's a pity that there is no one around. It's hard to see where this person is going."
Ban Lan said: "I don't think so. Although there is no one around, how could these pottery people appear out of thin air? Someone must be responsible for fabricating it, most likely some indigenous craftsmen, and maybe this generation is also a pottery person."
He Li immediately said: "If it were me, I would definitely deal with these people." However, he reacted quickly and immediately noticed a possibility. His expression moved, and he looked at Ban Lan and said, "Sir?"
Ban Lan said: "This generation retreated in a hurry. Since we are dealing with these craftsmen, it is very likely that traces will be left. The next clue may be there."
