Eight hundred and fiftieth eight chapters East Yingxian Island
Next, Zhou Sen visited Shen Huimin’s alchemy room.
You won’t know if you don’t look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it.
This cave extends in all directions, and there are holes inside the cave, which are all moving around, like a maze.
During the visit, Zhou Sen saw many monsters who were good at digging holes still digging holes. According to Shen Huimin's plan, they were to hollow out the Notre Dame Mountain range and build the largest alchemy room near the imperial capital.
Shen Huimin said it was an alchemy room, but actually, it is more suitable to describe it as a palace.
Zhou Sen couldn't help but marvel at the ingenious construction of the cave.
These caves not only extend in all directions, but are also so deep that people from outside cannot tell the difference between east, west and north. Moreover, in many caves, there are formations set up by Shen Huimin. In some key places, there are large alchemy talismans.
Once the formation is touched, it will trigger a series of terrifying chain reactions...
…
The monsters in the Holy Mother Mountain are now under Shen Huimin's command.
Shen Huimin's method is very direct and effective. In addition to using some energy stones to lure the monsters to do hard work for her, and then from time to time, she will give some quick-acting pills to let the monsters taste the sweetness, or directly reward them with some energy stones. Anyway, Shen Huimin
There are a lot of energy stones.
Zhou Sen didn't bother to ask about Shen Huimin's actions. Instead, he agreed very much. After all, women with personalities like Shen Huimin and Ming Xian Mingkong would definitely make trouble everywhere if they didn't have anything to do.
Zhou Sen was not worried about the safety of Shen Huimin and the others. Although there were many monsters in the Holy Mother Mountain, their magic power was not as good as the monsters in Buchu Village Inn.
Of course, the most important thing is that some monsters are eagerly waiting for Shen Huimin's elixir to be refined, and they all want to take out their hearts and show them to Shen Huimin to show their loyalty.
In the demon world, elixirs for people with superpowers are extremely rare. It has never happened before in the demon world that everyone has a share of it, like Shen Huimin.
Zhou Sen did not rush to the imperial capital immediately to handle matters.
When he was very young, Zhou Sen determined to be a wandering poet, which shows that he is a person who likes to be unrestrained. Zhou Sen does not like the disciplined military career very much. Because of this, Zhou Sen decided to choose
The affairs of the elite soldiers are entirely left to Cai Ping and others.
While Shen Huimin was torturing a group of monsters, Zhou Sen occupied a huge cave to practice.
The practice of "Beijing" tends to be more practical, but this does not mean that meditation is not needed. In fact, the practice of "Beijing" is a combination of movement and stillness. Realms such as "quiet posture and wise heart" require an absolutely quiet environment.
Zhou Sen has now broken through the realm of "wisdom heart" and entered the realm of war elephant.
The state of the war elephant is a kind of idea, a kind of spiritual resemblance, which makes oneself like a huge war elephant, generating a courageous will to fight forward.
After the war elephant, there is "tempering the body." The so-called body tempering is to temper the external power into the physical body, increase the strength and density of the physical body, and make every muscle as strong as a steel plate. In fact, this process,
It is somewhat similar to the principle of making a weapon, which is to refine it over and over again. However, what Zhou Sen is now refining is not the weapon, but his own body.
Through the arrangement of the realm of "wisdom heart", Zhou Sen vaguely felt that the tyrannical power released began to be contained in his muscles, just like a wide and slow river crowded into a steep river channel, becoming
With the excitement and excitement, it is obvious that the realm of war elephants is about to break through...
Between movement and stillness, the realm of war elephants began to settle.
This kind of precipitation not only made the physical body more and more powerful, but also gave Zhou Sen a thinking process. Only then did Zhou Sen feel the real magic and mystery of it.
Cultivation is actually a process of repeated movement and stillness. Of course, when the physical body is strong enough, its practice will automatically switch to a state of stillness. Under the practice of this state, people's vision and thinking will continue to improve.
, gradually keeping up with the progress of the physical body.
Until now, Zhou Sen's body protection has mainly relied on the dragon armor, and his heart has relied on the seal of martial arts. But now, once Zhou Sen breaks through the war elephant and truly enters the realm of "tempering the body", Zhou Sen's physical body, itself
It has very strong defense power, and the "body tempering" state not only strengthens the surface skin, but also strengthens the internal organs. When the time comes, Zhou Sen will not hesitate to use "steel-like body" to describe it.
Pass……
Zhou Sen's altar world is becoming more and more vast, and the topography inside also has a sense of layering and space. The rushing lava is spreading to the surroundings.
After experiencing that horrific catastrophe, Shi Dan became quieter and quieter, spending most of his time in solemn state. Obviously, he was getting closer and closer to entering the realm of Sanxian.
Because the husband of the cuckoo demon is an ordinary person, although he has the help of the Shidan leader to strengthen his soul, he is still in chaos and his mind is not yet enlightened.
It seems that resurrecting Du Juan's husband will not happen overnight.
However, Du Juan was already satisfied with this, because when her husband's soul was in the jade bottle, it became weaker and weaker, and there was a faint sign that the soul was scattered. Only after arriving at Zhou Sen's altar world, that
Not only did the soul not dissipate, but it became stronger and stronger, which gave her hope.
When developing the world of Shentai, Zhou Sen was surprised to find that he could vaguely feel the spiritual imprint left on the Demonic Core Continent.
This is undoubtedly a huge happy event for Zhou Sen.
Once Zhou Sen is able to access the location of Demonic Core Continent and control the space of the altar to the point where he can come and go freely, it means that Zhou Sen can call upon the power of Demonic Core Continent.
In the Demonic Core Continent, there are tens of thousands of divine and demonic warriors and human berserker warriors!
Zhou Sen felt excited at the thought of being able to command thousands of warriors of gods and demons to fight against human berserkers.
At present, Zhou Sen still doesn’t know how much strength the demonic warriors and human berserkers of the Demonic Core Continent can maintain after leaving the Demonic Core Continent. However, judging from the combat effectiveness of the black-armored demon summoned by Master Ye Rong, the king of martial arts last time
, the fighting power of the gods and demon warriors will only be stronger.
Unfortunately, the vague sense of spiritual imprint is not enough to find the specific location of the Demonic Core Continent. If we can now freely enter and exit the Demonic Core Continent and go to overseas islands, there is no need for the soldiers and horses of the Han Empire at all...
"Master, master..." Du Juan's urgent cry suddenly sounded in Zhou Sen's mind.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Sen's eyes suddenly opened, as if lightning flashed across his eyes. He knew that Du Juan would not call him unless there was something very important.
Zhou Sen pulled Du Juan's spiritual consciousness into the world of the altar. Not only did it allow Du Juan to pay attention to her husband at all times, but the biggest advantage was that she could contact Zhou Sen at any time within a certain distance.
"The Imperial Capital is on fire!" Du Juan's voice sounded a little panicked.
"Is there a problem?" Zhou Sen asked with a frown.
"It's too far away. I can only see the flames shooting into the sky... It seems... It seems like Wanhua Tower..."
"Wanhua Tower!"
Zhou Sen stood up in awe. He knew that Du Juan was very familiar with Wanhua Tower and would definitely not be mistaken about it. Moreover, Wanhua Tower occupies an extremely large area and is majestic and brilliant. It was easy to recognize and there was no doubt about it.
Zhou Sen stood up suddenly and ran towards the outside of the cave. When he reached the cave entrance, he raised the black gold dagger and turned it into a stream of light. He flew towards the imperial capital at lightning speed. The moment he came out of the cave, a strong wind swept through him like a hurricane, sweeping away a group of people who were in the process.
The monsters who were waiting for the alchemy furnace staggered around and were so scared that they lost their minds.
It really lives up to its reputation!
All the monsters looked at each other with frightened expressions on their faces.
Zhou Sen didn't know that the magical power he unintentionally revealed had a deterrent effect, and a group of monsters no longer dared to have any objections.
The cuckoo demon who was originally following Zhou Sen lost sight of Zhou Sen in the blink of an eye, with a look of shock on his face.
The cuckoo demon is a demon trained from a bird, and flying is her strength. But just now, the cuckoo demon knew that Zhou Sen's speed was beyond her reach...
…
Less than a moment before the incense stick was ready, Zhou Sen stood in front of Wanhua Tower.
Wanhua Building, which covers an area of nearly hundreds of acres, has been engulfed in flames.
The soaring fire looked like a demonic energy hovering from a distance, gray and ferocious. When approaching, it seemed like a bloody mouth was coming, with thick smoke and scorching heat, mixed with wanton whistling sounds.
There was also the whistling sound of suffocating gas burning rapidly, as if the heaven and earth were letting go of this gushing explosion.
The raging fire had completely spread, and the entire Wanhua Building was shrouded in flames. From time to time, tall buildings were burned and collapsed, and huge wooden beams made thrilling cracking sounds.
In the blood-red night sky, some dust and sawdust were flying all over the sky, like thousands of large and small flying insects having a carnival.
Around the Wanhua Building, there was the Water Dragon Team of the Imperial Capital. However, facing the monstrous flames, the Water Dragon Team was helpless. In fact, because the fire was so fierce, the scorching flames made it impossible for people to even get close.
Not to mention putting out fires.
Surrounded by thousands of people watching the excitement, people were whispering to each other and talking in low voices.
Faced with the burning of the romantic place that had been popular in the Han Empire for decades, people showed regret on their faces. Of course, there were also people who applauded.
Suddenly, Zhou Sen saw a familiar face.
Tianji Taoist priest.
The Tianji Taoist priest who had been hanging out in Wanhua Tower for a long time was looking up at the firelight in a daze, holding a green onion pancake in his hand.
"Taoist Priest Tianji." Zhou Sen slowly walked to Taoist Priest Tianji.
"Ah..." Taoist Priest Tianji was startled. When he saw it was Zhou Sen, he immediately turned around and ran away, as if he had seen a ghost. Unfortunately, he was caught by Zhou Sen.
"Why are you running away? What did you do?" Zhou Sen looked murderous.
"Ahem, cough, cough... Brother, don't frame the channel and give this poor Taoist so much courage. Even this poor Taoist would not dare to burn down the Wanhua Tower. Besides, there are so many experts in this Wanhua Tower. I, a fake Taoist priest who tells fortunes, have
What's the point of burning..."
"Tell me the situation!" Zhou Sen pulled Taoist Tianji away from the crowd. When Zhou Sen knew that Wanhua Tower was on fire, he almost intuitively told him that this was definitely not a natural disaster, because although the towers and pavilions of Wanhua Tower were all
It's wooden, but it's designed with that in mind. Or, if it makes sense to say one building is on fire, if all the buildings suddenly burst into flames, it's definitely arson.
"Ah... don't pull me... I'll just follow you..."
Taoist Priest Tianji had a sad face. He originally wanted to break free, but Zhou Sen's palm was like an iron pincer, preventing him from making any move.
The two of them arrived at a dark place. Zhou Sen let go of Taoist Tianji. Looking at Zhou Sen's cold face, Taoist Tianji also gave up the idea of escape.
"Say!" Zhou Sen's gaze was like a blade, as if it was about to pierce into Taoist Priest Tianji's internal organs.
"I really don't know anything... I... I was just hungry and wanted to buy some scallion pancakes for a midnight snack. You know, when I came back, Wanhua Building was burned into a sea of fire..." Taoist priest Tianji's face showed
A hint of lingering fear.
"There is everything to eat and drink in Wanhua Tower, why do you have to go out and buy green onion pancakes?" Zhou Sen snorted coldly.
"This... big brother... Pindao just wants to taste this."
"Well, since you don't say anything, don't blame me for being rude." Zhou Sen said gloomily.
"Ah... I said, I said... I said... Brother, you are really a disaster... You killed the emperor... Ah... I said... I said... A gentleman speaks with his words but never with his hands...
I said, I said... I was in Wanhua Tower, and when I was bored, suddenly, a fat man in a white robe came.
Pretending to be a man..."
"Tell me the important point!" Zhou Sen was a little impatient.
"Pindao saw that the fat man in white robe behaved very well and was probably a rich man, so he walked up to chat with him, hoping to make some money...but...but...when Pindao walked over, the fat man looked at me.
, that look... made the poor Taoist shiver all over, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and as if he had entered endless darkness, and then..." Taoist Priest Tianji paused.
"Then what?" Zhou Sen was very dissatisfied with the long-winded Tianji Taoist priest. This guy may have been telling fortunes for many years and is used to making mistakes. He always pauses at critical moments or leaves suspense.
"Then, Pindao calculated with his fingers, and found that Pindao was going to have a bloody disaster today. Pindao didn't know what went wrong for a while, and he couldn't find a way to resolve it. Moreover, suddenly, Pindao wanted to
Eat scallion pancakes...and then..."
"Then you went out to buy scallion pancakes?" Zhou Sen snorted coldly.
"Yes, yes, this is how things happened. If one sentence is untrue, Ping Daoyuan will be struck by lightning from the sky, five thunders will strike his head!" Taoist priest Tianji vowed, patting his chest and swearing.
"Well, do those people have any characteristics?" Zhou Sen felt that Tianji Taoist Priest was not lying. Moreover, although this Taoist priest was a fake Taoist priest, he had been immersed in fortune telling and divination for a lifetime, so he could probably feel the danger.
, so I subconsciously avoided it before the incident at Wanhua Tower.
"Characteristics, let me think about it... Characteristics... Characteristics are not very obvious... However, their clothes seem to be a little different from those of our Han Empire, but the specific ones are different. Pindao was so panicked at the time that he no longer remembers it.
It's always the kind of difference that can be recognized at a glance... Eh... maybe it's a difference in style. Moreover, those dozen or so people all wear the same clothes, so it's easy to leave a deep impression...
…”
"Is Miss Jian Fan at Wanhua Tower?" Zhou Sen asked.
"This..." Taoist Priest Tianji's expression became heavy.
"Say!" Zhou Sen felt inexplicably anxious.
"In, and...and...when I left Wanhua Building, the fat man in white robe went to the room where Miss Jian Fan was temporarily staying..." Taoist Priest Tianji had a look of sadness on his face.
"No one escaped?" Zhou Sen asked with a heavy heart.
"When I came, the Wanhua Building had already started to catch fire. At that time, the fire had not completely burned out. I could vaguely see... I saw... I saw..."
"What did you see?" Zhou Sen felt the endless fear in Taoist Priest Tianji's eyes.
"When I saw the flames at the door, they seemed to be alive. They were swaying left and right, flying and flying like elves, sealing the door of Wanhua Tower... And... and... I also heard the faint sound inside Wanhua Tower.
There was a shrill scream... At that time, I was very scared and didn't dare to get close, so I hid quickly. It wasn't until more and more people were watching that I dared to come out. I only know this much about the specific situation..."
Next, Zhou Sen asked for some details in detail.
Obviously, this was a planned massacre. None of the girls in Wanhua Tower escaped. In addition to being killed or buried in the sea of fire, no one survived.
Not only the girls of Wanhua House perished in the flames, but many guests who stayed in Wanhua House were also killed by the fat man in white robe.
There is no doubt that this is a group of super masters.
You know, there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Wanhua Tower, and many of the guests are masters themselves, and many of them have superpowers. Since those people can kill everyone, it is enough to show that they are all rare masters.
Who are they?
Why did they burn down Wanhua Tower?
Zhou Sen doesn't think this is a competition between some colleagues. After all, Wanhua Tower is like a centipede that can survive even to death. It is not easy for colleagues in the Imperial Capital to uproot the Jian family, and the risks involved are too great.
, if the root cause is not eradicated, the Jian family's subsequent revenge will be extremely terrifying.
The Jian family has been working hard in the imperial capital for decades and has become popular in the Han Empire. It can be said that it is deeply rooted. Although Jian Qianjun has died, it does not mean that the Jian family has no power to fight back. In fact, those who really know some rules can now
No one dares to provoke the Jian family easily, because at this time, the Jian family is like a nervous hedgehog. If there is any trouble, they will do their best to retaliate...
…
After asking about the tentative residence of Taoist Tianji, Zhou Sen decided to pay a visit to Jian's house.
According to Taoist Priest Tianji, Jian Fan should have been buried in the sea of fire, but Zhou Sen still had some luck in his heart.
The best way to confirm whether Jian Fan is dead is to go to Jian's house.
It was just after rooster crow and dawn entered, and the sky was still dark.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Zhou Sen rushed to the Jian family's mansion at lightning speed.
The wind lantern hanging at the door of the Jian family's mansion was still on, drifting and emitting a faint light.
When Zhou Sen walked to the door of the Jian family's mansion, he suddenly felt an extremely dangerous feeling, as if there was a predatory beast lurking in the darkness, ready to burst out and hurt people at any time.
Zhou Sen gave up the idea of knocking on the door and walked around the wall of the back garden of the Jian family's residence. He held his breath, activated his superpower, and forcibly stepped into the garden with his physical body.
Zhou Sen did not dare to fly with a sword, because with Zhou Sen's ability to fly with a sword, he could not hide his whereabouts. When he met an expert, his true colors would be revealed immediately.
A place of tranquility!
Zhou Sen's whole body melted into the darkness. His feet were like a cat with thick pads. His movements were quick and agile without making any sound.
Gradually, Zhou Sen approached the main building of the Jian family's mansion.
At this time, the main building of the Jian family's residence was actually brightly lit. However, what made people feel strange was that there was no one in this house that was supposed to be full of slaves. It gave off an extremely eerie and creepy atmosphere.
.
Zhou Sen stood under the shadow of a big tree, and his spiritual thoughts spread little by little. When his spiritual thoughts entered the building, Zhou Sen couldn't help but be shocked.
In the huge living room, there were dozens of big men in black clothes. Zhou Sen roughly counted them, and there were at least forty people.
More than forty strong men in black attire surrounded a fat man in white robes. The fat man was sitting on a huge carved wooden chair, like a huge mountain of meat, with an aura that looked down on the world.
Beneath the big fat man in white robes, dozens of people were kneeling in a large area of darkness. On the ground, there were many bloody and mutilated corpses. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood...
…
In the living room of nearly a hundred people, no one spoke, you could hear a needle drop, and the atmosphere was filled with suffocating depression.
"How did the two divine envoys die?" The fat man in white robe was trimming his nails slowly with a pair of golden scissors. Although he asked softly, his voice was filled with cold air.
Inexplicable heart palpitations.
"I've told you countless times that I don't know how they died. I even don't know who the Divine Envoy is. Even if you kill me, I can't answer your question." Jian Fan said in a pair of words.
His flaming eyes stared intently at the fat man in white robe.
"It seems that you really don't know." The fat man in white robe showed a look of disappointment on his face.
"I don't know." Jian Fan replied resolutely.
"Okay, I'll give you one last chance. As long as you can answer, I will reward you with a whole corpse." The feminine voice of the man in white robes sent chills down your spine.
Jian Fan gritted her teeth, knowing that she would inevitably die today, and now she could only hope that she would not suffer those inhuman tortures before she died.
"Who is Zhou Sen?" The fat man in white robe pondered for a moment and suddenly asked.
"Ah..." Jian Fan didn't expect the fat man in white robe to ask Zhou Sen, and he suddenly looked shocked.
"Haha, it seems that you know Zhou Sen." A slight smile appeared on the corner of the fat man in white robe, and he stopped trimming his nails. A pair of eyes with only a slit left stared at Jian Fan, ejaculating.
Her feminine gaze made Jian Fan's scalp tingle.
"I don't know!" Jian Fan stiffened his neck with an unyielding look on his face.
"Haha, is this your brother?"
The big fat man in white robe slowly stood up, walked to a teenage child, stretched out a pair of fat white hands, and gently touched the child's face, with a lewd smile on his face.
"Don't touch him!" Seeing the fear in his brother's eyes, Jian Fan let out a harsh scream.
"I just want to touch him, what can you do! Hehe, he has tender skin and tender flesh..." The fat man in white robe held up brother Jian Fan's chin, and lightly traced it with his fat white fingers, making a series of
A sinister smile.
"Let him go, I say!" Jian Fan said bitterly.
"Yes, this is a good boy." The fat man in white robe reluctantly touched Jian Fan's younger brother, returned to the huge carved chair and sat down.
"Zhou Sen is Zhou Sen of Wuchao City, and he is also Zhou Sen on the gangster list."
"That's all?" The fat man in white robe looked gloomy.
"That's all."
"Haha..." The fat man in white robe's eyes fell on brother Jian Fan.
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
"Peng!"
…
Suddenly, a series of violent explosions and collapse sounds were heard outside, as if thousands of troops were coming to kill them.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh...
There was a whistling sound in the air, and waves of countless arrows shot across the sky like locusts. Before anyone could react, dozens of sharp arrows contained terrifying power, and they were so powerful all the way.
, devastated, penetrated the brick wall, and shot into the main building of the Jian family, bringing up countless broken bricks and rocks. Those men in black clothes and strong suits activated their super powers to crush the incoming sharp arrows.
, for a time, the living room became a mess...
"General Wu Yuan's powerful army has arrived. If we don't take action now, we'll wait until later!" A majestic voice came from the distant night sky.
The sound was accompanied by a series of collisions and collapse sounds, as if countless soldiers were breaking through the wall, and the sound was extremely terrifying.
Hearing the sound of running like thousands of troops outside getting closer and closer, the faces of the handsome men in black clothes in the living room changed color.
An army of strong men!
Not to mention these dozens of black-clothed men, even the most powerful god-cultivating sect in the Gods and Demons Continent cannot compete with the powerful army of the Han Empire.
"Damn it!" The fat man in white robe stood up suddenly and glared at the man in black next to him, with murderous intent. The fat man in white robe also suspected the man in black for a reason, because here, the man in black was the only person qualified to betray him.
.
"Subordinate..."
The man in black next to the fat man in white robe knew that there was no point in arguing, because this man was inherently suspicious, and arguing was meaningless. The moment he pretended to lower his head to argue, he suddenly became violent and hurtful, and his right arm suddenly grabbed at his side like lightning.
The chest of a man in black clothes and strong clothes. The man in black clothes and strong clothes did not expect that the man in black would dare to hurt someone under heavy surroundings. He was caught off guard and was caught...
"ah!"
The man in black clothes felt a pain in his chest. When he looked down, he saw a huge hole in his chest, and he suddenly let out a heart-rending scream.
"You forced me!"
The man in black flew up out of thin air on the roof beam. In his hand, there was a bloody heart. What was frightening was that the heart seemed to have been bitten by someone. The man in black had a sinister smile on his face and a mouth full of blood, as if
Chewing something.
"Kill him!" The fat man in white robes had his beard and hair spread out, showing his fierce look.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
…
At this time, the sound of killing outside was loud, a dense wave of arrows shot into the hall, and the hall was filled with chaos.
Peng!
There was an earth-shattering sound, and a large hole was opened in a thick brick wall. The ground shook, and the sound was terrifying. A young man with a majestic figure, holding a long guillotine in his hand, and long hair flying
Appeared at the entrance of the cave.
"Brothers, here, kill!"
The long-haired young man shouted loudly, holding up a dark sword with a long beheaded knife in his hand, and rushed towards the crowd like an elephant. His unstoppable momentum was inexplicably shocking.
Peng!
With a loud noise, the man in black actually broke open the roof, raised a flying sword, and fled into a stream of light. On the roof, rubble fell from the sky like raindrops.
The fat man in white robe looked around for Jian Fan and her brother with his narrow eyes, but found that in the chaos, the two siblings had hidden somewhere. In fact, not only were the siblings missing, but they were originally kneeling together in darkness.
The servants of the Jian Mansion were also scattered everywhere.
"Walk!"
The fat man in white robe stamped his feet fiercely, causing the bluestone on the ground to split into pieces. He waved his long sleeves in the direction of Zhou Sen's charge, and then flew out following the roof broken by the man in black. A group of men in black clothes and strong suits were afraid of being killed by the strong man.
The army was trapped and flew up one after another...
Peng!
With a muffled sound, Zhou Sen's body was hit by the strong wind waving by the long sleeves of the fat man in white robe. Suddenly, it felt like he was hit by a huge mountain. The strong body wearing dragon armor was knocked into the air.
Flying dozens of feet.
Zhou Sen, who fell to the ground, felt as if his chest had been hit by a heavy hammer, and felt a sense of stuffiness. He had no time to check his injuries and immediately jumped up. In his hand, a long bow appeared out of thin air, and the bow strings kept tightening and relaxing.
Below, countless arrow feathers flew out like black ghosts, soundlessly...
…
Zhou Sen made such a big noise in order to make the fat man in white robe believe that the army of strong men was really coming. Therefore, he had to create a tense atmosphere so that the other party would not have time to observe the surrounding environment.
Swish, swish, swish, swish, swish...
Sharp arrows shot into the dark sky like locusts, and then, there was a series of scoldings and exclamations, mixed with screams.
The art of shooting arrows is famous all over the world!
Sure enough, the fat man in white robes and a group of well-dressed men in black had no chance to check the situation, and were shot by Zhou Sen's sharp arrows one after another. They were distracted from fighting and fled.
In fact, no one could believe that this earth-shattering and terrifying scene was actually caused by one person...
…
Zhou Sen, who was in the darkness, did not appear immediately. Instead, he clenched his long bow and quietly waited for half a stick of incense. He made sure that the fat man in white robe and a group of well-dressed men in black had left before appearing here.
.
In fact, Zhou Sen was no longer afraid even if those men in black suits didn't leave at this time, because after he made an earth-shattering momentum, the empire's troops had already rushed over from all directions.
It was now the time of great mourning for the emperor's death, and the imperial capital was already heavily guarded. Zhou Sen had made such a big noise that in addition to the soldiers on duty who came over, there were also a large number of experts from the palace who came over to check on the situation.
Zhou Sen found Jian Fan.
Jian Fan was sitting in the corner, her eyes dull and lifeless. In her hands, she held a bloody corpse.
Jian Fan's younger brother, the only male in the Jian family to continue the family line.
In the chaos, Jian Fan's brother did not escape his bad luck...
Under Zhou Sen's patient questioning, Jian Fan explained the reason clearly.
It turned out that a group of people kidnapped her when Wanhua Tower was burned down, and then arrived at the Jian family's mansion. When the fat man in white robe led a group of people to the Jian family's mansion, the Jian family's people had already been controlled.
.
Obviously, the fat man in white robe had a detailed plan. He divided his troops into two groups, one to go to Wanhua Building to kill people and set fire to others, and the other group to rush to take control of the Jian family's mansion.
Zhou Sen assisted Jian Fan in dealing with the people sent by the government. Seeing the presence of Zhou Sen in the imperial capital, the government did not harass Jian Fan excessively.
"Is this retribution?!" Jian Fan curled up on the sofa, his face was pale and without any color, and his dull eyes looked extremely empty, as if he had lost hope in life and his heart was filled with despair.
"We underestimated the forces behind the scenes." Zhou Sen sat cross-legged on a chair, activating his super power to heal his injuries. He was just brushed by the fat man in white robe with his sleeve. His body felt like being hit with a heavy hammer, and his bones were all bruised.
A broken feeling. If it weren't for the dragon armor protecting the body, the body would turn into ashes and the soul would be scattered.
Judging from Zhou Sen's experience, the strength of the fat man in white robe is not inferior to the four great gods of the Han Empire, and even exceeds the four great gods.
Of course, what puzzled Zhou Sen the most was that the man in black seemed to be as powerful as the fat man in white robe, so why did he become the subordinate of the fat man in white robe?
It seems that the fat man in white robe is a key figure sent to the Han Empire from the overseas islands.
Judging from the clues provided by Jian Fan, one of the divine messengers mentioned by the fat man in white robes should be the queen, and the other person was the fake eunuch who was killed by the queen.
Because the queen and the eunuch died, the fat man in white robe lost his eyes and ears. He didn't understand what happened in the palace, so he went to Wanhua Tower and the Jian Family Mansion to look for clues.
Why did the fat man in white robe know that Jian Qianjun was related to the queen and the others? In this situation, he could only rely on the man in black. As a result, he provoked a discord at will, and the two became enemies of life and death. Zhou Sen guessed that the two
They should be subordinates of the same person, but their faces and hearts are at odds with each other, and the man in black is not familiar with the palace.
Unable to obtain information from other channels and desperate, they used the Jian family as a breakthrough to obtain information. As for why they took such an extreme approach, Zhou Sen could not figure out...
…
Based on various information, Zhou Sen made a judgment.
The man in white robe was from a foreign land. Although he had a noble status, due to status restrictions, he did not have many channels for information. He mainly relied on the queen and the eunuch, or Jian Qianjun. After the death of these three people,
The fat man in white robe became blind and deaf, and the only person he could rely on was the man in black who was not familiar with him.
It can be imagined that it would be absolutely crazy for a person who originally controlled a huge power to suddenly lose everything. Therefore, after knowing that the queen and Jian Qianjun were both dead, the man in white robe wanted to contact that person.
The eunuch killed by the queen.
Because the palace was heavily guarded and news was blocked, in desperation, the fat man in white robe led a group of masters to take risks, burned Wanhua Tower, and kidnapped Jian Fan, hoping to learn the inside story of the matter.
Zhou Sen used the state of "wisdom" to sort out the numerous relationships and gradually clarify the context. However, he was still unable to determine the identity of the fat man in white robe.
Although the cultivation level of the fat man in white robe is astonishing, it has not yet reached a terrifying level. He should be at least on par with the man in black, but the status of the man in black is obviously not as high as his, and he is even a little scared.
Why does this happen?
In the world of superpowers, it is different from the mortal world. In theory, the stronger the individual's strength, the more respected his status.
unless……
Unless the fat man in white robe has the support of a huge force, that force is so powerful that even a vicious person like the man in black would be afraid.
If the superpowers on the island are so powerful that even the men in black can humiliate them, then they really underestimate the strength of the superpowers on the island.
Now, Zhou Sen is not only worried that the superpowers on the island are more powerful than he imagined, but what he wants to know most is the identity and status of the fat man in white robe.
The real strength of the island's superpowers can be most directly judged from the status of the fat man in white robe on overseas islands.
Theoretically speaking, the fat man in white robe is just a peripheral member.
It was precisely because of this speculation that Zhou Sen became wary of overseas islands.
If it is determined that the fat man in white robe is just a marginalized peripheral member with such profound cultivation, then the power of the superpowers on overseas islands may have far exceeded his imagination...
…
If it is really as scary as speculated, then the plan to lead 20,000 cavalry to conquer overseas islands must be revised, otherwise, the 20,000 soldiers may never return.
"General Zhou returned to the capital, and I didn't know he would hear anything. If it weren't for the Jian family's trouble, it would be really hard to see the general!" While Zhou Sen was thinking, General Wu Yuan's voice sounded outside the door.
"General!"
Zhou Sen quickly stood up and welcomed General Wu Yuan in.
"General?"
Opening the door, Zhou Sen couldn't help but be startled, because General Wu Yuan, who was dressed in casual clothes, was covered in blood, his uniform was in tatters, and his hair that should have been neatly combed became extremely messy. This pair of General Wu Yuan, who was usually meticulous about his manners, was
It's simply unimaginable.
Obviously, General Wu Yuan also encountered something.
"It's okay, I met a damn fat man on the road." General Wu Yuan smiled slightly. Although he was dressed in rags, he still had an extraordinary demeanor before he moved his hands and feet.
"Fat man in white robe?" Zhou Sen was shocked.
"Yes, it's the fat guy who was scared to death by you alone."
"The result?" Zhou Sen was nervous and asked impatiently.
"There are many good men around that guy, but he ran away." General Wu Yuan glanced at Jian Fan, who was curled up on the chair with empty eyes, and sighed: "Girl, my condolences, this huge Jian family still needs
You straighten your back."
"The Jian family... the Jian family... there is no Jian family anymore..." Jian Fan's dull eyes rolled around.
"No, as long as you live, there is still hope for the Jian family, because your surname is also Jian!" General Wu Yuan frowned and looked at Jian Fan, speaking every word with an extremely serious expression.
"I..." Jian Fan's eyes showed a little vitality.
"Yes, you! In addition to the Jian family needing you, the Han Empire also needs you. You have the responsibility and obligation to make Wanhua Tower reborn from the ashes. Wanhua Tower is not only a place of romance, it is also a cultural distribution center and the imperial capital.
It is a symbol of prosperity, so you must rebuild Wanhua Tower from the ruins and let the Jian family regain its former glory!"
"The glory of the past." Jian Fan's eyes showed a hint of splendor.
"Yes, Wanhua Building can be burned down, but the Wanhua Building brand cannot fall down! We will fully support you. In the next few days, we will provide you with a mansion to temporarily serve as the business location of Wanhua Building. The original location
The construction of Wanhua Tower will start immediately!"
"Ah...really..." Jian Fan looked at General Wu Yuan in disbelief.
"Fool, is General Wu Yuan a joker?!" Zhou Sen quickly interjected.
"Thank you!" Jian Fan looked grateful.
"Well, go ahead, General Zhou and I have something to say." General Wu Yuan said calmly.
Jian Fan nodded and retreated.
"Do you know that fat man in white robe?" General Wu Yuan's face turned solemn when he saw Jian Fan leaving.
"I don't know. According to Jian Fan, the fat man in white robe is the leader of the overseas island." Zhou Sen could almost guess that General Wu Yuan did not gain anything from fighting with the fat man in white robe. Otherwise, he would use force to
General Yuanda's calm demeanor would never have such a solemn expression.
"If the top figures on the island are just like this, our Han Empire will naturally not be afraid. What if... what if the fat man in white robe is just a peripheral figure, then the strength of the island..."
Heroes think alike!
Zhou Sen secretly clicked his tongue and praised him. Obviously, General Wu Yuan thought of him together.
"Has your plan changed?" General Wu Yuan stared at Zhou Sen with clear eyes.
"Twenty thousand soldiers are just meat buns beating dogs, and they will never come back." Zhou Sen showed a wry smile on his face.
"It seems that General Zhou has a new plan." General Wu Yuan gently stroked the beautiful beard on his chin, with a look of relief on his face.
"So far, we know nothing about the overseas islands. If it were just a small country with 20,000 elite soldiers, it would be enough to quell it. However, from the current point of view, it is not just a country, there should be a large number of superpowers gathered there.
, if we send troops rashly, I'm afraid the whole army will be wiped out... I think it's best to spy on the opponent's intelligence, find out the truth, and then give the opponent a thunderous blow so that the opponent will never be reincarnated!"
"Well, I think so too. Those men in black are all masters. If they wantonly destroy the Han Empire and shake the country, the consequences will be disastrous. If they miss a single blow, there will be endless troubles. Therefore, we need to strike with thunder.
Remove the weeds and eradicate the roots, and avoid future troubles forever!" General Wu Yuan thought for a moment and nodded.
"General, what's the best idea?" Zhou Sen saw the clue and asked immediately.
"Recently, the palace went through a round of purges, and a large number of eunuchs were captured. After interrogation, it was learned that the overseas island is called the Immortal Island of Japan. There is a legend among the Yitan fishermen living near the sea that the Immortal Island
There are immortals living on it. However, this legend is somewhat unreliable, because no fishermen have ever been to the island, and fishermen fishing near the fairy island often disappear. If there really are immortals living on it, those immortals are definitely not
Kind people."
"Through interrogation, we learned that a channel for selling slaves was discovered." General Wu Yuan paused, seeming to organize his thoughts and words.
"Trading slaves?" Zhou Sen trembled. He knew that in the Han Empire, slave trading was strictly prohibited. If caught, he would be punished by death.
"Yes, we checked Wanhualou's account flow in recent years and found that a large amount of funds were exchanged with a slave owner of the Yitan tribe. After tracing, we found that the slave owner was selling the Yitan tribe's people on a large scale.
Slaves, and among them, a large number of people are missing in our Han Empire. According to statistics, most of the missing people are young and strong men..."
"Could it be that they did not want to invade the Han Empire, but to acquire a large number of slaves?" Zhou Sen's eyes suddenly lit up.
"No one knows the specific situation. However, according to the traced information, the number of slaves shipped overseas in the past few decades has been very huge, reaching hundreds of thousands. Not only the Han Empire suffered greatly, but also the Xiongnu Er and others
The whole country has been affected, countless families have been affected, and the poison is extremely far-reaching..."
"With such a huge population missing, is it possible that the Han Empire knew nothing about it in the past few decades?" Zhou Sen frowned.
"In the past few decades, the queen has controlled the government, the eunuchs have disrupted the government, and the court has been silent. No one dared to speak out. In addition, the actual operations were all in the territory of the Yitan tribe. After the queen's death, I realized that things had actually deteriorated to such an extent.
"General Wu Yuan sighed.
Zhou Sen thought intently for a while, and the room fell into a long silence.
In addition to the masterminds behind the overseas islands, in the Han Empire, the culprits were the queen and the fake eunuch who were killed. The fat man in white robe should be responsible for liaison with the Yitan tribe, while people like Jian Qianjun and the man in black were
It dealt with the affairs of the Han Empire, mainly collecting money and eliminating dissidents.
So what kind of benefits did Japan Immortal Island give Jian Qianjun, so that he could spend all his wealth and serve them wholeheartedly?
There are also men in black.
It is not an easy task to subdue such a vicious person as the man in black. After all, his personal strength is extremely powerful, and if he is not controlled properly, he will be attacked by him.
Zhou Sen suddenly discovered that things seemed to be getting more and more complicated.
At first, Zhou Sen just believed that on a certain overseas island, there was an emperor who sat in a well and looked at the sky, trying to control the Han Empire with a vast land, abundant resources and a large population through a woman. For such a small country, 20,000 Han elites plus a group of perverted strong masters
, enough to level it.
When General Wu Yuan mentioned that the island had purchased hundreds of thousands of young and strong slaves for decades, Zhou Sen knew that he was completely wrong.
What is the concept of hundreds of thousands of slaves?
If the island is managed well and hundreds of thousands of slaves take up arms, it will become a terrifying army.
At certain times, the destructive power of slaves who have been oppressed and enslaved for a long time can be extremely terrifying.
If you rush to the island with 20,000 elites, you will probably be trapped in the human sea tactics and fight hard and be unable to extricate yourself.
When Zhou Sen was in the Xiongnu grassland, although a mere hundred men wiped out hundreds of thousands of Xiongnu troops, it was Zhou Sen who seized the opportunity and had the right time, place and people.
But now, Zhou Sen knows nothing about the overseas islands.
