North of Ruiguang City, within the station of the Shenwei Army.
On a high tower, Deng Mingqing stood here looking at Ruiguang City. He looked fifty years old on the surface, and there was a hint of depth in his sharp eyes, which made people unconsciously feel fearful.
As the captain of the Shenwei Army, unlike Yan Xulun, he lived a very simple life. He only had some simple meals every day, walked in and out, and wore the crudest ramie clothes on his body, and wore his own woven straw sandals on his feet.
Even his current residence is only a very small brick house, which can only accommodate a bed and a low table. Compared with some common people in Ruiguang City, it is far inferior.
A trusted attendant came up to him and whispered: "Master Lieutenant, it's windy at high places. Can you go back early?"
Deng Mingqing said without looking back: "If you have anything to say, just tell me here."
The confidant attendant opened a letter in his hand and said: "Marquis Hejun just sent a letter, saying that they have reached an agreement with the strange gods according to the captain's instructions, and have also made an agreement and calculated the days. Now they
It should be on its way to the place of divine rest."
Deng Ming frowned and said: "It seems that as long as they are profitable, there is no difference between those supernatural gods and mortals."
The confidant attendant said: "Just as Marquis He Jun mentioned, no news has been sent back to Lin Chu's team so far, and I don't know why the telepathic pull was broken, and I don't know if something happened."
Deng Mingqing's eyes flickered and he said, "It seems that Lin Chu has some thoughts that he shouldn't have."
The trusted attendant tried to ask: "Then do you want to send a message to He Junhou?"
Deng Mingqing said calmly: "Don't worry about it, business matters are important. As long as the matter is settled, no matter who Ying Chongguang's robe falls on, it will eventually return to our hands."
The confidant said yes. He thought for a while and then said: "Master Lieutenant, I am a little worried about those people who are in the Restoration of Gods Association."
Deng Mingqing's eyes showed a bit of sarcasm, and he said: "I know what they want to do, but without them now, this game of chess will not survive. When everything is settled, we will clean it up."
At this time, he slowly raised his head and looked in the direction of the platform in Ruiguang City with deep eyes, "Qi Ao, what will you do when you come down?"
In the Xuan Mansion, after Xiang Chun made his decision, he left the Affairs Hall and hurried to the front of Qishan Cave Mansion.
The Taoist surnamed Quan who was in charge of guarding the door stopped him here and said: "Brother, Xuanshou is in retreat, you can't go in."
Xiang Chun took out a talisman from his sleeve, handed it to him and said, "I have something urgent to see the teacher."
Taoist surnamed Quan took it to look at it and said, "Senior brother, it stands to reason that you have an emergency, so I should let you in, but the teacher has given advance notice in the past two days, and no one has been seen..."
Xiang Chun said anxiously: "Junior Brother Quan, I am meeting the teacher today. This is a major matter concerning the life and death of the Protectorate."
Taoist Quan couldn't help but hesitate.
At this moment, gentle chime sounds came from inside the cave.
Taoist Quan's face relaxed, and he handed the talisman back to Xiang Chun, then stepped aside and said: "Brother, the teacher has left seclusion, please come in."
Xiang Chun bowed his hand to him, and he strode into the inner room and came to the door of the inner palace. Seeing that the golden stone door was open, he straightened his clothes and walked in. When he saw Qi Ao sitting behind the case, he came up and bowed.
Said: "Teacher."
Qi Ye said: "I haven't seen you in such a hurry for a long time. What happened?"
Xiang Chun said with a solemn expression: "The spy that the teacher placed in the Shenwei Army has received important news in the past few days."
Qi Ao showed a look of reminiscence and said: "Boy Qiao, it's been twenty years...well, he won't pass on information if it's not an important matter, and he won't make you so nervous. Tell me, what's the matter?"
"
Xiang Chun took a deep breath and said: "Teacher, the Shenwei Army has colluded with the gods of the Xueyang Ancient Kingdom."
Qi Ao's expression did not change and he said: "Be more specific."
Xiang Chun calmed down a little and said: "The message said that after the three commanders of the Shenwei Army left the pass station, they did not stop the Spider God as they claimed, but went deep into Anshan and fought with a group of people.
The remnants of the Blood Sun met and informed them of the location of the resting place of the gods, and also wanted to help them steal the power and authority left behind by the gods of the Blood Sun."
He raised his head and said with a very uneasy feeling: "But after that, the Shenwei Army will definitely not ask for help from the gods for no reason. What will they do next? Just thinking about it, the disciples feel shuddering."
Qi Yao thought for a moment and asked, "Where are these people now?"
Xiang Chun said: "The message said that they are now heading to the place where the gods rest."
Qi Ao pondered for a moment and said: "The place where the gods rest? I have read the letter you left when you came here before. So what happened to the search for the divine robe of Deputy Captain Ying?"
Xiang Chun said hurriedly: "Junior brother Zhang is looking there, but there is no news back yet."
Qi Ye said: "Do you think he can be found?"
Xiang Chun hesitated for a moment and said: "Junior brother Zhang has never let Xuanfu down in his previous work, and I think this time will be no exception."
Qi Yao was noncommittal and said: "Let's put this matter aside for now. According to you, the three military commanders of the Shenwei Army, as well as the supernatural gods, are all in one place now?"
Xiang Chun said: "They should all be here. According to the information conveyed by the teacher's informant, all the Divine Army are acting together."
Qi Yao thought about it and said, "If this is the case, it would be easy to solve."
Xiang Chun hurriedly bowed and said, "Teacher, please give me some instructions."
Qi Yao said coldly: "The three commanders of the Shenwei Army colluded with the remnants of the Bloody Yang without authorization. Such behavior can be regarded as treason in the Protectorate. I should use 'Su Yi' to disinfect this person."
Xiang Chun raised his head in surprise and said, "Teacher, you want to use the 'Suyi Xuanbing'?"
Qi Ao said in a deep voice: "It's time to use it."
"Suyi Xuanbing" is a defensive weapon given to the Dongting Protectorate by Xuan Ting. Every Duhufu in Tianxia has such a Xuanbing guarding it.
In the past, this thing had been floating in the sky above the Protectorate for many years. However, after the arrival of the turbid tide, it could no longer be used in the distance, and its power was gradually fading, so Xuanfu could only take it back. But even so,
This thing still has the power to destroy cities and countries.
Xiang Chun said in confusion: "But teacher, Su Yi only has the power of one blow now. Isn't the teacher planning to use it against Zhu Que?"
Qi Ye shook his head and said: "Zhu Que has been living in Ruiguang City, not even in the military camp. I suspect that he may know something. Besides, as long as Zhu Que does not do anything detrimental to the people of the Duhu Mansion, then he is still a god.
Xia Zimin, I will not take the initiative to attack him, and since the impact of the turbid tide, 'Suyi' has been a little unstable and needs me to comfort it every day, but recently it has become more and more irritable.
It’s time to stop using it.”
He raised his head and said in a deep voice: "If these rebellions and those strange gods can be wiped out this time, only Zhu Que will be left in the Shenwei Army. If he is honest, then I will
Nothing has happened, if he still insists on having his own way, I will not let him go."
Xiang Chun suddenly thought of something at this time and said anxiously: "But the power of the Xuanbing is not trivial. If Junior Brother Zhang is there at this moment, if you are not careful..."
Qi Ao was silent for a while and said, "Things have their own priorities."
Xiang Chun sighed secretly.
He thought for a while, clasped his hands, and said solemnly: "Teacher, I am willing to go there with 'Suyi'."
Qi Ao looked at him for a while but said nothing.
Xiang Chun asked curiously: "Teacher?"
Qi Yao pondered for a while and finally said: "No need. As the head of the palace, many things cannot be done without you. This matter... I will arrange for others to do it."
Xiang Chun was startled.
"Su Yi" needs to be thrown in the air. Now the only ones in the mansion who can fly away are Dou Chang and him. And now Dou Chang is still at the pass and has not come back. He doesn't know who in the mansion can he choose to do this?
But since Qi Ao said so, he had no choice but to accept it.
At this time, he raised his hand again and said, "Teacher, there is one more thing. That Ji family son, Junior Brother Xu also urged me many times."
Qi Ao was silent for a while, waved his sleeves, and a jade slip floated down from the table, fell to Xiang Chun, and said: "My method is not something that anyone can practice, so I improved it a little. You can
Take this jade slip to the young man from the Ji family, but there are many obstacles involved. He has to walk his own path, so let him decide for himself whether he should practice cultivation or not."
Xiang Chun took the jade slip, bowed and said, "I will bring the teacher's words."
Qi Yao nodded and said, "Go ahead."
Xiang Chun saluted again, turned around and walked out.
Qi Ao waited for him to leave and said, "Chen Song."
"Teacher, I'm here."
As the voice rang out, a man in a green shirt walked out. He was about forty years old, with a very handsome face, but there were many wrinkles around the corners of his eyes, and his hair was slightly white. It was vaguely apparent that he must have been a very handsome man when he was young.
He looked at Qi Ao and said, "Teacher, is it really good for you to pass on the secret method to Ji Ji?"
Qi Ao said quietly: "There is nothing wrong with it. Since your disciple has this qualification, he is naturally qualified to practice this method. If you are not at ease, go back and teach it yourself."
Chen Song smiled bitterly and said, "Forget it, I'm already a dead person outside."
Qi Yao looked at him and said, "You heard what I said just now. This time I'm going to throw 'Su Yi'. Please do it for me."
Chen Song looked solemn, cupped his hands and said: "Disciple, accept the order." He put it down and said: "It's just teacher, the turbid tide in the dense forest is thick, and the disciple may lose his bearings and not find the right place when he goes there.
Qi Ye said: "It doesn't matter. You go to the warehouse and take the box of heartworms I left there. Heartworms from the same nest can sense it even if they are thousands of miles apart. As long as Qiao Zhan is there, you can
You can find his location by relying on the mutual induction between these insects."
Chen Song hesitated and said: "But if this is the case, once 'Su Yi' is thrown, the brother Qiao mentioned by the teacher may not survive."
Qi Ao said in a deep voice: "You don't know what he has gone through. He joined the Shenwei Army just for this moment." He paused, "I have taught you the secret of the imperial envoy Su Yi.
I won’t explain any more, just grab your things and set off now.”
Chen Song clasped his hands together, bowed and said solemnly: "Disciple, obey the order."
Qi Ao watched him go out and was silent for a while. He looked up and thought to himself: "If we can kill these traitors this time, it will scare those who have different aspirations and the internal fighting in the Protectorate will be over."
But with a little delay, Dongting can also try to reduce some losses. If it can be maintained until the turbid tide dissipates and the war is rekindled, I will be able to live up to the trust of Master Yan."
