Chapter 11 "God of Death" reveals true appearance
It is noon, and the streets are crowded with people, and the shops on both sides are lined up, and the hustle and bustle of the bustle and bustle of the city.
Far from afar, Wang Qiang walked over quickly, stopped in front of a teahouse, and watched around. The rings followed behind him, , who were mixed in the crowd, lowered his hat and hurried past him, stopped behind the corridor column of a restaurant, and looked back.
Wang Qiang is gone.
Zhang Huan was shocked, walked quickly to the center of the street, and looked around. Suddenly, a figure flashed not far away. Zhang Huan looked at it carefully and it was indeed Wang Qiang. He quickly walked into an embroidery building on the street. Zhang Huan took the lead and came to the embroidery building two steps. He looked up and saw a horizontal plaque hanging on the embroidery building: Cuihongyuan.
, html, didn't even think about it, and followed in quickly. Zhang Huan walked into the hall, and the sound of swallows and orioles inside, and the sound of silk and bamboo Qiang pipe was endless.
Zhang Huan looked around in confusion, and saw many women wearing cream and swaggering around him. Not far away, Wang Qiang quickly walked up the second floor.
Zhang Huan was about to raise his leg and follow him suddenly, and suddenly reached out to him with a hand and grabbed him.
Zhang Huan turned around in shock and was a fierce and charming middle-aged woman. She smiled and said, "What, brother, come and have fun?"
Zhang Huan was stunned and hurriedly said, "No, no, I'm here to find someone." The woman's face immediately sank and said, "Look for someone? Do you know where this is?"
Zhang Huan shook her head.
woman looked contemptuous and said word by word: "This is a brothel, also called a brothel."
Zhang Huan was stunned: "What? This..."
woman looked at him and said sternly: "Who are you looking for?"
Zhang Huan coughed and said, "It's the person in black robe who just entered."
woman looked at Zhang Huan as if she had calmed her expression, and smiled strangely: "You must be the follower hired by his wife to check your master's whereabouts. Go back to report to his wife. "You are not aware of your behavior, right?"
Zhang Huan couldn't think about it carefully, and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes." The woman's face changed and twisted Zhang Huan's ears. Zhang Huan said, "What are you doing?"
woman scolded, "You are ungrateful, you do such unethical things. Isn't this ruining our business? Get out of here!" As she said that, she pulled Zhang Huan's ears and pulled him to the front door and pushed him out: "Get out!"
Zhang Huan grinned with laughter and cry and didn't know what to say.
The woman put her hands on her hips and shouted loudly: "Did you hear it? If you don't leave, I'll ask someone to come out and beat you up!"
Zhang Huan had no choice but to turn around and walk towards the restaurant opposite. After walking a few steps, he turned around and turned around. The woman walked into the door cursingly. Zhang Huan let out a long sigh and was about to think of another way, suddenly one hand was placed on his shoulder.
Zhang Huan was startled and turned around and found that it was Xiaotao .
Zhang Huan was stunned for a moment: "It's you!"
Xiaotao said: "Brother Zhang Huan, what are you doing?"
Zhang Huan was speechless: "I, I..."
Xiaotao looked at the Cuihongyuan with flowers and sweet willows, then looked at Zhang Huan, and smiled mysteriously, "I understand..."
Zhang Huan's face turned red immediately, and she was stammering and couldn't speak.
Xiaotao smiled strangely, "You ran out to the restaurant secretly, right?"
Zhang Huan was stunned and said, "Ah, ah, yes."
Xiaotao patted his shoulder: "Don't worry, I won't tell Di Chun brother and Li Lang brother."
Zhang Huan's heart fell to the ground and smiled, "thank you. Xiaotao, what are you doing on the street?"
Xiaotao raised the big medicine bag in his hand and said, "I'll get the medicine."
Zhang Huan said, "Okay, go back quickly, the patient is still waiting for the medicine."
Xiaotao nodded and said, "Then I'll leave." After that, he turned around and left.
In a room in Cuihongyuan, Wang Qiang sat on the couch and was in a good mood. A slim figure walked in and said softly, "You are here."
Wang Qiang hurriedly stood up and said, "God, I am here.""
woman said, "Sit down, don't be so reserved. "
Wang Qiang sat down, and the woman sat opposite him.
"Do you know, Liao Wenqing is not dead! "The woman called "God of Reverence" asked coldly.
Wang Qiang said in surprise: "What? "
" Once he wakes up and talks, things are in danger of being exposed. He must be solved! "
" Yes, I will arrange it immediately. "
" Someone will do this, you just need to do your own thing well. "
" Yes, yes. "
" I have received a message from the Great Protector of the Earthquake. The 'God of Death' is now on its way to the 'Mountain of Darkness', and you have done this quite properly. "
Wang Qiang hurriedly said, "Yes, that is the responsibility of his subordinates. "
" honored the god" said: "'The God of Death' is about the overall situation, and it is about the survival and death of Black Clothing Society . Now, the next step of "Operation Hell" is about to be launched. You should immediately pass on my oral order and convene all the great protectors in Liangzhou to plan this matter together. There must be no reluctance. "
Wang Qiang took a deep breath and said, "I understand. "
"Sheng God" said coldly: "You have made an unforgivable mistake in Liao Wenqing's affairs. But I will not investigate your loyalty to the Black Club for many years. But there must never be another time, otherwise the harshest punishment of the Black Club will be used on you! "
Cold sweat rolled down Wang Qiang's forehead, and he kept saying, "Yes, yes. Please rest assured that there will never be another next time. "
"Sheng God" paused, relaxed and asked, "How is Wang Kai and Fang Zhe?" "
Wang Qiang smiled and said with a pity: "They are moving forward step by step according to your deployment without any doubts. This plan of honoring God is truly amazing. "
" honored the god" said: "The next step is the key to the entire plan and the lifeblood of "Operation Hell". Are you ready? "
" is. We will set out tonight. "
" must not expose any of the slightest foot. "
" Please don't worry, we must do our best! "
Qianniu Guards surrounded the post station. Zeng Tai, Changshi, Sima, Shangcao, the boss and the clerk in the store stood up in front of the door and waited.
In the distance, Li Yuanfang, wearing the official uniform of the General Qianniu Guard, led the Qianniu Guards to the post station from a official sedan chair.
Zeng Tai said: "Here you come." "Everyone quickly walked forward.
Guards and the official sedan chair arrived in front of the store in a blink of an eye. Li Yuanfang jumped off the horse. The official sedan chair landed, raised the curtain, and Di Gong walked out.
Zeng Tai greeted him and said, "Mr., the student has verified with the Chief Secretary who was responsible for dealing with the plague of the merchants in India and the Shangcai. Those merchants in India lived in this Tongyang Station when they fell ill. "
Di Gong nodded. Behind him, the chief minister led everyone to visit.
Di Gong waved his hand and said, "Today, the Japanese Pavilion came to investigate the scene, all etiquettes are simple. Li Changshi, when did you receive the report and what was the situation at that time? "
Chief Shi said: "When I say that, I received a report yesterday morning that the Tianzhu merchant living in Tongyang Station was infected with a strange disease, and eight people died within one day. "
Di Gong nodded: "Who is the owner of our store? "The boss of
hurried forward and bowed: "Sir, the younger one is. "
Di Gong said: "Let's go, lead this pavilion in and take a look. "The owner of the
store agreed, led Di Gong and his party to the door of the room where the Tianzhu merchants lived, and said, "Sir, those Tianzhu merchants live in this upper room. ”
Di Gong asked: “When did they enter the store? "
" entered the store the morning before yesterday. What goods did "
" bring? "
" has seven or eight carriages, all wrapped in tarpaulin, and I don't know what is inside. "
Di Gong nodded, his eyes had already carefully scanned the situation in the room, and he saw that the room was clean without any trace.
Di Gong said: "Boss, have these people done any strange actions after moving in? "The owner of the
store said, "Hey, what you said, you are asking, since these Indians entered the store, they have been mysterious and confused about what they are busy with."
Di Gong turned around and said, "Oh, how do you say it? "The owner of the
store came to his heart and said with relish: "These people came to receive them in small ways. At that time, there were so many of them, but they only had one room to go to the room. The young man was very strange, so he asked a few more questions, but those people were very impatient, so the young man did not dare to ask any further. Later they said that their goods were extremely expensive and said they wanted to park in the backyard, but the backyard had to be locked and the keys were left to them for storage. This is nothing. The strangest thing is that they actually asked me where I could buy blood, saying it was... and saying it was their goods to drink... Later, I asked them about a place selling cow blood. Since then, they have to buy a large bucket of cow blood every day to carry it to the backyard, which is really rare. "
D Gong, Li Yuanfang and Zeng Tai looked at each other and said, "You mean, their goods need to drink blood? "The owner of the
store hurriedly said, "Sir, this is not what I said, it was the Indian man named Jiawa. ”
Di Gong said: “Have you seen those goods? "The owner of the
store shook his head and said, "I have never seen it before. The keys to the backyard are in their hands and no one will let them in." "
At this time, the chief minister on the side interrupted, "Oh, by the way, Lord Governor, you have seen these merchants in India. "
Zeng Tai was stunned and said, "I have seen it? "
Chief Secretary said: "That's right, it's the people of the Indian who came to the governor's office to see you asking for your departure from the customs. "
Zeng Tai was shocked and said, "Is it them? "
Changshi nodded.
Di Gong said: "What, Zeng Tai, have you seen them? "
Zeng Tai said: "After the retreat was closed, these people asked to leave the seclusion early, but were rejected by the students. "
Di Gong lowered his head and muttered to himself: "These merchants in India moved into the store with goods that wanted to drink blood, and were so urgently trying to leave the city. What is the mystery here? ”
Li Yuanfang asked the store owner: “What does their goods look like? "The owner of the store said: "The carriage is flat, the goods inside are very high, and from the outside there are edges and gaps, it looks like a large wooden cage. "
Li Yuanfang said in surprise: "You mean there is a large wooden cage on the carriage? "The owner of the
store said: "It seems to be. ”
Li Yuanfang and Di Gong looked at each other and said, “Is the yellow tarpaulin wrapped around the goods? "The owner of the
store said: "Yes, yes, how did you know? The color of that kind of tarpaulin is rare in our place. "
Li Yuanfang lowered his voice and said to Di Gong: "It's exactly the same as what I saw in the backyard of Guiyi Bo Mansion. "
Di Gong was shocked: "Oh? "
Li Yuanfang nodded.
Di Gong said to the store owner: "Boss, take me to the backyard to have a look. "The owner of the
store nodded and said, "Sir, please follow me. "After saying that, he led Di Gong and his party to the backyard, took out the key and opened the door lock, and told Di Gong, "Please come in." "
Di Gongqi said: "Why is this backyard locked? "The owner of the
store said with a frown: "I'm not hiding it. Since the official said that these Indians suffered from plague, the store has never had any customers. The young man thought that their strange goods were locked in the backyard, and no one knew what it was. If they had to bring a plague, the young man would be finished, and then the guy locked the backyard. "
Di Gong nodded and walked into the yard quickly. The backyard of
was covered in chaos, with horse manure and straw sprinkled all over the floor.
Di Gong and the other two were carefully searching for clues. Suddenly, a little red in the straw attracted Di Gong's gaze. He quickly walked up to push away the straw. There were several scarlet red dots hidden in the grass, and the shape and color were exactly the same as those found on the ancient castle and Hongjia Castle.
Di looked carefully and showed a smile on his face.
"Sir, look! "Li Yuanfang, not far away, exclaimed, and Duke Di hurried over and saw that there were several small red dots wrapped in the straw pile in front of Yuanfang . Li Yuanfang said, "Sir, this is exactly the same as what you found at the scene of your death and on the carriage in the backyard of Bo Mansion."
Di Gong patted his shoulder and said, "It seems that those mysterious things that were killed invisibly were brought into Liangzhou by the Indian merchants in carriages. Wang Qiang's purpose of returning to the city from the deserted castle was to trade with the Indian merchants and buy away the mysterious things in their hands. "
Li Yuanfang said: "This is certain. It seems that Wang Qiang’s transaction partner is these Indian merchants. "Zeng Tai, who was next to
, was disappointed in words: "In other words, we have released the most important clues from the city. "
Di Gong nodded slowly.
Zeng Tai glared at Changshi fiercely, and Changshi was so scared that he trembled all over: "Sir, I..."
Zeng Tai said: "Don't explain anymore. This state has repeatedly ordered that you should not let the business travelers go out of the city without permission, but as the chief minister, you turned a deaf ear..."
Di waved his hand and interrupted him: "Okay, now it's useless to say these things. Li Changshi, how did you deal with it after receiving the report of the plague? "
Chief Shi said tremblingly: "After receiving the report, Bei Zhi ordered Shang Cao to lead the coroner to check it out. Shang Cao reported that the body of pus and blood were flowing everywhere, and the deceased was likely infected with the plague. Bei Zhi was worried, so he personally led Sima, Shangcao and coroners to the scene to investigate. When checking the bodies, he found that the Indian merchants had many wounds on their bodies, with their skin and flesh rotten, blood and yellow pus, and the smell was not heard. After discussing, we were afraid that they were plagues, so we decided to release them out of the city to bury their bodies. "
Zeng Tai hummed heavily: "Take your own decision! "
Chief Shi said tremblingly: "It's a humble position. "
Di Gong called the store owner over and asked, "When did you find out that they were infected with the plague? "The owner of the
store thought for a while and said, "It was around the early morning of yesterday. "
Di Gong said: "Have you happened before? "The owner of the
store said: "Sir, this matter really makes Xiao me feel a little strange. The night before yesterday, a man in black robe came to the inn to find the Indian merchants. After the man left, the Indian merchants started to work hard and after about an hour, the people drove the carriage and left the shop with goods. "
Di Gong raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? Did they leave? "
store waiter continued: "That's right. Unexpectedly, at midnight, someone suddenly smashed the door. The little one hurried out to take a look and saw a dozen people in black standing in front of the door, carrying several door panels. The few Indian merchants were lying on the door panel with a sheet covered in bed. The leader among the people said that they had fever and asked the villain to open the door of their room. Seeing that the man was very fierce, the young man had to open the door and the men in black carried the Indians in. In the early morning, a man in black told the young man that all the Indians were dead and they might have had a plague, so we should report to the local area as soon as possible. The small shop owner had no choice but to report to Fang Zheng and the inner-level chief. "
Di Gong nodded and said, "So that's it. "
Li Yuanfang asked: "Boss, did these Indian merchants bring Han entourage when they came? "The owner of the
store said while thinking, "I also think this is strange. When they came, there were only a few Indian merchants, but in the morning, four followers suddenly appeared. I asked them where they called, and they told the young man that he lived in another inn and came after hearing the news. "
Di Gong said: "Have you seen those men in black who brought them back before? "The owner of the
store said: "I have never seen it before. "
Li Yuanfang thought for a while and said, "I understand. Sir, the four Han entourages I saw at the city gate are definitely from the Black Club. I think they must have used some method to hide the mysterious thing from the corpse carriage of the merchants in the Indian Zhu to transport it out of Liangzhou. "
Di Gong nodded and said, "I think the story should be like this: the merchant from the Indian Zhu received a message from the Black Club and traded somewhere in the city at midnight that day. After the transaction was completed, Wang Qiang and others suddenly killed the merchants in the Indian country, and then returned to Guiyi Bo Mansion with the mysterious objects to discuss with Wang Kai. At this moment, you went to the Bo Mansion at night and found these carriages.After they finished discussing, they put the mysterious thing in the carriage containing the bodies of the Indians in the Bo Mansion, returned to the inn, lied that the Indian merchant had a plague and asked the store owner to report the case. Sure enough, the officials ignored them and released them out of the city. "
Li Yuanfang clapped and praised: "Impossible! What a plan that doesn't leak. "
Zeng Tai sighed: "I never thought that after being in seclusion for many days, the students were so ashamed that they took responsibility because their subordinates were afraid of taking responsibility and did not investigate it roughly, and they actually released the most important clues out of the city. "The Changshi and others behind him lowered their heads in shame.
Di Gong said: "Okay, don't blame yourself. They can't completely miscalculate this way. It's just that the bad guys are very thoughtful and have already planned carefully, so they lured them into the trap. "
Zeng Tai nodded.
Changshi and others bowed and said, "Thank you for your forgiveness. "
Di Gong said: "Now the situation in Liangzhou is complicated, so you must be cautious in your future actions and never let bad people have any flaws to take advantage of. "
Chief Shi Nou Nuo said: "Abide by the teachings of the Lord." "
Di Gong sighed: "It seems that our judgment is not bad at all. The Black Club has a great ambition! Robbing the salary is just a small step in a big plan, and the next thing will be even more dangerous. "
Li Yuanfang and Zeng Tai looked at each other and nodded slowly.
Di Gong murmured: "What is this mysterious thing? The gangsters of the Black-clothed Club took the risk of taking the initiative to take him out of the city under such a tense situation... What does the blood and red feces mean? "
Li Yuanfang whispered: "Sir, the carriage carrying the bodies of the Indian merchants left the city at noon yesterday, which is less than a day. Bei Zhi thought that they would not walk too fast with their bodies and those mysterious things. Chase! "
Di Gong pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Remember, don't alert the snake. "
Li Yuanfang said: "Don't worry, sir. "After saying that, he quickly walked out the door. In the mansion of
, Wang Kai and Fang Zhe were waiting anxiously.
Wang Qiang pushed the door and walked in: "Brother, Brother Fang. "
Wang Kai and Fang Zhe walked forward quickly and said almost at the same time: "How is it? Is there any news? "
Wang Qiang smiled on his face: "I have figured it out, we will set off tonight. "
Wang Kai hesitated: "Now I am closed to the road, how can I leave the city? "
Wang Qiang smiled and said, "Brother, I don't know, the imperial envoy has been issued, and Liangzhou Chengguan has been fully opened. "
Wang Kai said happily: "That's great! Second brother, summon the brothers outside to gather in the mansion and set off tonight! "In the governor's mansion, Zhang Huanzheng talked about what happened to track Wang Qiang today.
Di Gong asked, "Wang Qiang went to Cuihong Courtyard? "
Zhang Huan nodded and said, "That's right. Bei Zhi followed in, but was bombarded by the madam. Hu Zhi had no choice but to retreat outside and wait. About half an hour later, Wang Qiang came out of it and returned to the uncle's mansion. "
Di Gong said: "Cuihongyuan..."
Zhang Huan said: "It was a large brothel, which seemed to be very famous in Liangzhou City. ”
Di Gong said: “Did you see someone with Wang Qiang? ”
Zhang Huan shook his head: “No. Oh, by the way, I met Xiaotao. "
Di Gong was stunned: "Xiao Tao? "
Zhang Huan said: "She went to buy medicine for the patient. "
Di Gong remembered: "Ah, it's not bad, I asked her to go. "
Zhang Huan said: "There is nothing else. "
Di Gong smiled and patted his shoulder: "You have done a very good job and continue to monitor. "
Zhang Huan agreed to turn and leave.
Di Gong looked at his back and said to himself: "Cui-hong-yard, Cui-hong-yard...What did Wang Qiang go to the brothel to do? "
The thick clouds were gathered, and the strong wind whistled. A fast horse ran up the hill, and the passenger immediately lifted up the felt hat that he wore, which was Li Yuanfang. He looked around and saw a familiar small mountain village at the hill. It was exactly what he had been to - Wangjiabao.
Li Yuanfang looked around, clamped his legs, and the war horse rushed down to the hill with a long neigh.
It was dark, the village was brightly lit, and the light balls and torches of light pine illuminated the small mountain village like daytime. Every household in the village had the door open, and more than a dozen black-clothed guardians led dozens of subordinates to drive the people of the village out of their homes and walk towards the dirt road in the village.
The red candles are burning in the temple, and the surroundings are quiet. Seven or eight flatbed carriages were parked in the square in front of the temple.
The black shadow flashed in the distance. Li Yuanfang's body was like a big bird, jumping between the rocks and trees. In an instant, he had sneaked to the temple. He observed around and was hidden behind a big tree, revealing his head.
The cart parked in front of the temple was loaded with the bodies of the Indian merchants leaving the city.
Li Yuanfang jumped up and hid quietly beside the cart. The car was empty, and the bodies of the Indians disappeared. Li Yuanfang looked around and walked quickly towards the temple.
The bodies of eight Indians were placed parallel to the ground of the temple, and the wounds of the bodies were filled with pus and blood. Li Yuanfang squatted down and carefully observed the corpse on the ground.
Suddenly, a "punch" sound came from the silence. Li Yuanfang was stunned and turned around and looked behind her. The temple was quiet and there was no movement.
Li Yuanfang turned his head in confusion.
Another light sound, and the sound seemed to be coming from the corpse on the ground. Li Yuanfang looked at the corpse, then opened her eyes in surprise, almost unable to believe everything she saw: a small lump slowly bulged on the abdomen of the corpse, and then the lump slowly began to wriggle.
Li Yuanfang was shocked and reached out to touch the wriggling lump. Unexpectedly, the lump at the touch was actually a living thing hidden in the abdomen of the deceased, and it kept moving up and down. Suddenly, a small piece of the deceased's chest bulged, and then the small piece began to squirm quickly.
Looking at this strange scene, Li Yuanfang felt a cold air squirting along her spine and couldn't help but have a cold war. With a light "punch", a long spike pierced from the wriggling small pieces. Li Yuanfang exclaimed and took a step back.
At this moment, there was a voice outside the temple. Li Yuanfang hurriedly jumped up and flew to the main beam of the temple.
A entourage in white clothes led a sermon in black clothes and four Indians holding large wooden boxes quickly into the temple.
followers said, "The Protector, the 'God of Death' has been transported, a total of 200 people are hidden in these corpses."
Black-clothed Dharma Protector nodded and said to the Indian people beside him: "Qika, you should do it immediately, take out the God of Death, burn the corpse. We will rush to ' Dark Mountain ' overnight."
Qika said, "Please rest assured, the Protector will be done soon."
Black-clothed Dharma Protector nodded.
Qika said to the three people behind him, "Everyone, do it." As he said that, the four people placed the wooden box in their hands next to the corpse, then opened the bag, took out four hoods made of white iron and four pairs of gloves from it, put them on each, then squatted down and gently tapped the corpse placed on the ground. Li Yuanfang looked quietly on the beam of the room.
I saw the lump bulging on the corpse before getting bigger and bigger. With a "popping" sound, the lump burst, the flesh flipped open, a long spike in the mouth, and a red object similar to bat squeezed out of the wound. It quickly grabbed its wings and reached out to put it into the wooden box beside it. Immediately afterwards, another lump burst out, and another red bat squeezed out, and the Ka skillfully grabbed it and put it in the wooden box.
Li Yuanfang on the beam of the room took a breath.
It was quiet in the temple, and four Indians quickly grabbed the red bats hidden in the corpse and put them into the wooden box. After these people left, Li Yuanfang observed around, stood up gently, and walked behind the temple along the beams. A vent window above the back wall of
gently opened, and Li Yuanfang flew out of the vent window quickly. He calmed down and looked into the village.
In the distance, the people of Wangjiabao were escorted by the black-clothed guardian and the black-coated man and walked to the center of the dirt road in the village, forming an irregular column.
Li Yuanfang pondered for a moment, jumped up, and took advantage of the night to sweep into the village.
Hundreds of villagers stood in the middle of the dirt road with their bags, whispering: "The God in Black has passed, why should the whole village be brought together?" "I don't know, is it because the God in Black has sent another mission?" "Why should we pack our luggage?" "From this attitude, we want to take us to where we go."
everyone was talking, and suddenly, a loud shout came from a distance: "The Great Protector is here!" The people's discussion stopped immediately.
In the distance, a large guardian wearing an embroidered silver and black robe and a bronze mask quickly came to the front of the team. The people all knelt down and kowtowed: "The grass people bowed to the great protector!" On a big tree not far away, Li Yuanfang was hidden in the dense branches and leaves, quietly looking at the scene happening below.
only heard the great guardian say loudly: "Everyone, get up!" It turned out to be the woman's voice.
Li Yuanfang was stunned.
only heard the great guardian said passionately: "People of the Great God in Black, your most glorious moment has arrived. Today, under the guidance of the envoy, you will go to the temple of the Great God in Black - the 'Dark Mountain' to worship!"
As soon as this said, the people below immediately made a surprise call: "Ah, go to the 'Dark Mountain'!" "I heard that no one has ever been there."
"Isn't that? I also heard that as long as you can reach the 'Dark Mountain', you can get whatever you want!"
The great guardian waved his hand, and the people calmed down.
The Great Guardian said: "'The Mountain of Darkness' is the source of all divine power. You are right. Those who arrive there can get whatever they want! More importantly, you can not only see the great god in black admired by everyone, but also gloriously accept the sacred mission he has given you! This is a great moment and the most glorious journey of your life. You should enjoy it devoutly and happily give everything you have to the great god! By then, You are no longer mortals, but will have extraordinary divine power and honor just like us! "Hearing this agitated words, the people of
immediately burst into blood and shouted in unison: "I will go through fire and water for the great god in black!" The great guardian of
said: "Okay! The Venerable of Black, divide the villagers into six teams and get on the bus at the entrance of the village! Let's set off immediately!" On the big tree of
, Li Yuanfang thought quietly. Under
, the black-clothed guardian shouted loudly, and the villagers quickly divided into six teams, led by the black-clothed guardians toward the entrance of the village.
’s great guardian breathed a long sigh and said to the last guardian in black: “This is the last batch of hosts of the ‘God of Death’, and there must be no mistakes. You can go to the village to check door to door to see if there are any fish that have missed the net!”
’s black guardian received the order.
The Great Protector said, "After the inspection is completed, order all subordinates to return. You go to the entrance of the village to meet us."
The Black-clothed Guardian agreed to walk towards the village, and the Great Protector led the remaining black-clothed Guardians to quickly walk towards the entrance of the village.
Li Yuanfang also jumped up and rushed towards the village.
In front of a farmhouse, the black-clothed guardian in the village was ordered to check the village and walked in with a long sword in his hand and walked in. The lights were on in the main room, and the black-clothed guardian strode into the room. The main hall was empty, and the black-clothed guardian walked into the door, searched around, and turned around and walked towards the door. With a "bang", the door of the main room closed.
Black-clothed Protector screamed and took two steps back: "Who?"
"I." A voice came from behind, and the Black-clothed Protector suddenly turned around.
Li Yuanfang sat on a chair in the center of the main hall.
Black-clothed Protector said tremblingly, "You, who are you?"
Li Yuanfang shook his head and said, "You don't need to know this, you just need to know why I am here."
Black-clothed Protector said, "Oh, why are you here?"
Li Yuanfang said, "Because, I want you to give me your clothes and mask."
Black-clothed Protector sent a sneer: "That depends on whether you have the ability to take it away!"
Li Yuanfang smiled, "It seems that you are going to die soon."
Black-clothed Protector snorted coldly, and with the cold light flashed, the long sword in his hand rushed straight to Li Yuanfang's throat.When he was about to hit the opponent, he felt a figure flashing in front of him, and with a "puff" sound, the sword stabbed heavily on the back of the chair where Li Yuanfang was sitting.
Li Yuanfang is gone.
The black-clothed guardian screamed, and immediately pulled out his long sword and turned around. Suddenly, he felt that his wrist was tightened, and the sword had been taken away by the chopping hand. Then, a coldness in his throat was blowing through his throat. The black-clothed guardian's eyes were full of doubts. He did not understand how he died until his death. Li Yuanfang reached out and took off his mask, and a Western face came into his eyes.
The fires flashed at the entrance of the village and the voices were noisy. Several black-clothed guardians were waiting anxiously on the horse. One of them said, "It's so hard, it took so long to check an empty village." The other pointed to the distance and said, "Here! Here!" The guardians looked back and saw that, not far away, the "black-clothed guardian" who was checking the village was coming. The man who spoke before shouted impatiently, "Hurry up, the brigade has set out!" "The village guardian" said vaguely, "Here is here. Come." As he said that, the man had already run closer and flew onto a horse. The leader shouted loudly, and several war horses neighed and galloped towards the darkness.
The gate of Bo Mansion slowly opened in the darkness, and a team of dozens of black-robed warriors galloped out. The leader was Gui Yi Bo Wang Kai. The rushing sound of horse hooves pierced the tranquility of the late night. In the corner of the wall not far away, Zhang Huan looked at the horse team that was leaving and said anxiously: "Li Lang, continue to stay, I will go back and report to the master immediately!" Li Lang nodded, and Zhang Huan ran towards the road.
Di Gong strode into the hall, and Zeng Tai, Zhang Huan and Di Chunfei were waiting anxiously in the room to welcome him.
Di Gong said, "Zhang Huan, what's the matter?"
Zhang Huan said in a panting voice: "Just now, Wang Kai led dozens of black-robed warriors out of the mansion and headed to the north gate!"
Di Gong smiled on his face: "They were moving! Immediately gather the imperial guards, and we will follow and chase!"
Zhang Huan replied loudly and rushed out of the door.
Di Gong said to Zeng Tai: "Weier is very familiar with the situation of the Wang brothers. You should go to the East Cluster Courtyard immediately and ask her to go with us!"
Zeng Tai replied "Yes" and walked out the door quickly.
Di Chun said anxiously, "Master, what about me?"
Di Gong smiled and said mysteriously, "You have a more important task."
Di Chun said anxiously, "What task?"
Di Gong waved to him, Di Chun leaned over, Di Gong whispered a few words, and Di Chun raised his head suddenly: "Ah? What do you mean, there are still people to..."
Di Gong thrust and said, "You can't say, you can't say."
Di Chun nodded and turned around and left.
The city gate slowly closed amid the roar. Suddenly, a loud shout came from a distance: "Let's wait!" The captain of the patrol battalion, who was guarding the gate, turned around. I saw seven or eight war horses running from a distance and arrived in front of the north gate in a blink of an eye. The captain of the patrol battalion shouted: "Stop!" The leader of
held his strand and got off his seat. It was Wang Kai. He bowed and said, "Brother, we have something urgent to leave the city, please make it convenient!" Captain
said, "The city gate is closed at the Xu hour. Don't you know? Why not get out of the city earlier?" A man beside Wang Kai shouted sternly, "Bold, how dare you speak to the Lord like this!" Captain
said in surprise, "What Lord?" The man brought his horse to the front and opened the hood. It was Wang Qiang. He pointed at Wang Kai and said, "This is Prince Guiyi, don't you recognize him?" Captain
was shocked.
Wang Kai nodded, took out the Guan Ping from his arms and handed forward, "I am the Wang Kai, the uncle of Guiyi. If you have urgent matters, you must leave the city overnight!" The captain of
took over the Guan Ping and looked at it, and hurriedly said, "It turns out to be the King of Kings. You are ruthless and offensive. I forgive you."
Wang Kai nodded, "Forget it." The captain of
shouted, "Open the city gate!" The gate of
roared and opened again, and Wang Kai and his party hurriedly urged the cavalry to rush out of the city.
Di Gong, Zeng Tai and Weier quietly watched the scene below on the city tower.At this time, the captain of the city defense camp just now ran to the city and said, "Qi Zhuan, the one who just left the city is Gui Yi Bo Wang Kai!"
Di Gong nodded, "I understand." Weier next to
said, "From the hour of You to now, five groups have been released, a total of forty people."
Di Gong said, "Well, Wang Kai should be the last batch. Zeng Tai ordered the imperial guards to gather in front of the city gate. People were not wearing armor, and horses picked the bells, and we followed closely!"
Horse hooves sounded, and the imperial guards, led by Di Gong, rushed across the suspension bridge and ran out of the city.
It was already late at night, and the barren mountains were shrouded in the darkness. From a distance, a hoarse wolf howls came, adding a bit of shrill to the terrifying night.
The gloomy castle stands among the cliffs. A little fire appeared in the canyon. As the light gradually expanded, the sound of horse hooves and wheels rolling on the ground came from afar.
A team of people quickly approached the castle. The leader was the Black-clothed Society guard who appeared in Wangjia Castle. Six large cars followed behind him and a guard guard composed of ten Black-clothed Guardians. The great guardian waved his hand and the team stopped in front of the ancient castle gate.
Li Yuanfang, who was mixed in the black-clothed guardian, slowly pushed up the mask on his head and was surprised to find that in front of him was the ancient castle of the barren mountain that he was very familiar with. The gate of the castle
slowly opened, and a large guardian, who was also wearing an embroidered silver and black robe and a bronze mask, led a dozen subordinates to meet him.
The two great guardians whispered a few words, and one of them said, "The villagers of Wangjiabao got out of the car and entered the fort immediately. The rest returned the same way!" Everyone took the order and took action immediately. The people of Wangjiabao in the
car quickly got off the train under the guidance of the black-clothed guardians and walked into the castle with two great guardians and four Indians holding large wooden boxes. The fort gate closed behind them.
The other black-clothed guardians led their subordinates to turn their horses and run towards the road. Li Yuanfang fell at the end of the team, and hesitated. A black-clothed guardian not far away stood by a horse who stood in a seat and turned around and shouted, "What are you looking at? Why don't you leave quickly!"
Li Yuanfang nodded, clamped the horse with his legs, and ran away with the team.
Ten black-clad guardians galloped on their horses. Suddenly, a scream came from behind. The guardians in front of them throne their throne, and the horses stopped neighing, and the guardians turned their heads and looked back. The black-clothed guardian, who was second to last, fell off his horse and did not move. Li Yuanfang, who was walking at the end, slowly urged the horse to come forward. The guardian of the leader of
shouted sternly, "What's going on?"
Li Yuanfang said coldly, "He is dead." All the guardians of
were shocked, jumped off their horses, surrounded the dead, and the guardian of the leader reached out and turned the dead's corpse over. I saw a deep wound cracked on his neck, and blood kept spilling out. The guardian of the leader of
was shocked and said, "Who is it? Who did this?"
"I." A cold voice came from behind. All the guardians of
turned around almost at the same time and looked at Li Yuanfang. The guardian led by
said strangely: "Old Dai, are you talking?"
Li Yuanfang reached out and took off the mask on his head: "Yes." The guardians of
exclaimed: "He is not Lao Dai!" The guardians led by
quickly pulled out the long sword at his waist and shouted sternly: "Who are you?"
Li Yuanfang said word by word: "Li Yuanfang."
episode comes to the sword! A cold light flashed, and there was an orchid sword in his hand at some point. The sword edge was like lightning and stabbed straight into the throat of the leader's guardian. The head guardian was shocked and raised his sword to resist. It was too late. With the sound of the sword edge entering the flesh, the orchid sword had pierced his throat.
The guardians were shocked and shouted and waved their swords to come forward. Li Yuanfang let out a clear roar, and a fog appeared in the orchid in his palm. After a few sounds of gold and iron collisions, the long swords in the palm of the three black-clothed guardians on the front were driven by a huge force and flew out at the same time, shooting towards the chests of the two guardians on the opposite side.The two guardians were rushing forward. Seeing three long swords flying towards each other, it was too late to resist. In a blink of an eye, the long swords had arrived in front of them. The two of them threw themselves to the ground in screaming. The three long swords flew past their heads and inserted into the rock opposite.
The three guardians who had been taken away turned around and wanted to escape. Before they could run two steps, they felt a flash of figures around them, and Li Yuanfang was already blocking them. When the other three guardians watching the battle saw that the situation was urgent, they jumped up and thrust Li Yuanfang behind him. Li Yuanfang let out another long roar and his body rose from the ground. The long sword in the hand of the three guardians rushed straight to the chest of the three guardians who had been seized weapons standing opposite. The three were shocked and it was too late to stop. With the sound of the sword's edge, the long sword pierced into their own chests. The three guardians were immediately shocked.
Li Yuanfang in the air turned rapidly, and dived down from her head and feet. The long sword rushed straight to the throats of the three shocked guardians. A cold light flashed, and the six guardians fell to the ground almost at the same time.
Li Yuanfang landed steadily and turned around and looked at the two slumped guardians. The two guardians trembled all over and knelt down on the ground with a "plop" sound: "God, please spare me! Please spare me!"
Li Yuanfang walked up to them and said word by word: "Remember me, don't be a bad person anymore!"
Two guardians kowtowed repeatedly: "I dare not, I dare not!"
Li Yuanfang turned around and walked towards his war horse.
The two guardians looked at each other, and a grim smile appeared on their faces. He reached out and quietly took out the two flywheels from behind.
Li Yuanfang seemed to be unaware and turned over and stepped on the horse.
Slammed, the two guardians rose up and waved their hands in succession. The cold light rushed straight to Li Yuanfang's chest with the powerful sound of hidden weapons breaking through the air. The orchid was unsheathed again from the "cancel". The cold light flashed, the tip of the sword gently lifted the center of the two flywheels. With Li Yuanfang's snatching, his wrist trembled, and the flywheel turned in the air, and headed straight for the front of the two guardians like lightning. Two "bang bang", the two flywheels were nailed into the throats of the two black-clothed guardians almost at the same time. The two of them fell to the ground with straight bodies.
Li Yuanfang shook his head and said softly, "It's hard to be a good person." As he said that, he clamped his legs and let out a long roar, and the war horse galloped towards the deserted castle.
Chapter 12 Di Renjie led his people to attack the thief's nest in the center of the hall, and there were ten people in Wangjiabao in a row, divided into six columns and waiting quietly. More than a dozen black-clothed guardians were guarding each other with long swords. The hall was quiet, no one walked around or spoke. Li Yuanfang flew to the castle, looked around, jumped up, and flashed into the castle.
Suddenly, a roar came from the hall, and six secret doors popped up on the front wall. A great guardian walked out quickly and said to the surrounding guardians: "You immediately lead the villagers into the secret door according to the positions of each queue and go to the ground hall." The guardians in black bowed and took the order and led the queues into the secret door in an orderly manner.
Li Yuanfang leaned out of the window and peered at the situation in the hall, seeing the villagers entering the secret door in an orderly manner. He pondered for a moment, jumped up, climbed up along the fort wall to the second floor, and went straight to the guest room where Di Gong once lived, carefully opened the window of the room, and fainted into the room. He turned his hand and closed the window, quickly walked to the wall with the information organ engraved with the news organ and shook the fire and shone on the wall. Soon he found the symbols of the organs that opened the secret door. Then I moved a stool and stepped on it, and followed what Di Gong did. Sure enough, with a "squeak", a secret door popped up on the wall. Li Yuanfang flashed and walked in. In the
, two great guardians and four Indians holding large wooden boxes were whispering something. With a roar, several secret doors surrounding the four walls of the ground hall slowly opened. The black-clothed guardians led the people of Wangjiabao into the ground hall. A small secret door in the southeast corner of the ground hall quietly opened. Li Yuanfang flashed in, quickly closed the secret door, put on a mask, and mingled among the black-clothed guardians.
A great guardian walked quickly to the people's yard and whispered loudly: "The most touching moment is coming soon!" As he spoke, a loud rumbling sound came from the ground hall, and the two doors in the northwest direction slowly opened, revealing the wide secret passage behind. The people exclaimed in surprise.
The Great Guardian said: "What you see now is the only way to the 'Dark Mountain', everything you have will change because of tonight! You will become the messengers of the great god in black with extraordinary divine power!" The people cheered excitedly.
The Great Protector waved his hand and said, "Follow me to enter the tunnel!" As she said that, she and another Great Protector and four Indians walked in first. The Black Protectors escorted the people and entered one after another, and Li Yuanfang also walked in together among the Black Protectors.
secret door slowly closed.
The night is late, and the shops on the street have already closed, and only the Cuihong Courtyard in the middle of the street is still on. There was silence around, the wind blew quietly, rolling up the fallen leaves on the ground and dancing in the air.
Suddenly, a black shadow flashed at the end of the street and walked quickly towards Cuihongyuan. This man was wearing a black cloak with a pullover, covering his body and face tightly.
"Squeaking" the door of Cuihongyuan opened, and the madam said softly, "You are here." The black cloak nodded and quickly entered the store.
The madam hurriedly got on the door panel and took off the black cloak on the person, revealing the rusty gold black robe and a face wearing a bronze mask. The person who came was the master in black.
The black-clothed god coughed gently and said, "Are they here?" The
madam hurriedly replied, "The four great guardians have arrived long ago, just waiting for the God of Reverence."
The black-clothed god said "um" and walked upstairs quickly. The four great guardians sitting in the room of
saw the great god in black coming in and stood up to salute: "God." The great god in black nodded and said: "Everyone, sit down." Everyone sat down.
black-clothed god said, "How is it? Is everything going well?" The Kun position guardian with Kun talisman engraved on the
mask said, "According to the God's orders, the solution to Liao Wenqing's affairs has been arranged."
black-clothed god said, "This matter is crucial. Once Liao Wenqing speaks, our situation will be very passive. This matter must be done by reliable people." The Kun position guardian said, "Please rest assured, God, there will be a result within two days." The black-clothed god nodded slowly.
Li Tai Great Guardian said, "God, I will receive a letter from the Great Guardian of Zhen tonight. The 'God of Death' has arrived at Wangjia Castle safely."
Black-clothed God: "Oh? That's great."
Li Tai Great Guardian said, "The letter also says that in recent days, the Great Guardian of Zhen has led his subordinates to recruit hundreds of people near Liangzhou as hosts of the 'God of Death' and have now arrived at the 'Dark Mountain'. Just wait for the 'God of Death' to be transformed into a successful variant, and immediately prepare to deploy the final attack."
Black-clothed God nodded: "Very good. Where are Wang Kai and Fang Zhe?"
Kan Li Tai Great Guardian said, "Return to the God of Death" and "return to the God of Death" and immediately prepare to deploy the final attack."
Black-clothed God nodded: "Very good. Where are Wang Kai and Fang Zhe?"
Kan Li Tai Great Guardian said, "Return to the God of Respect." , Tonight, Wang Kai and Fang Zhe led people out of the city, and Di Renjie led the imperial guards to follow him. Calculate the time, it should be a result tomorrow morning."
Black-clothed God said with satisfaction: "It seems that everything is going very smoothly except Liao Wenqing."
Leaving the position of the Great Guardian said: "God, I think the final attack will come soon."
Black-clothed God let out a happy laugh: "Di Renjie claimed to be a god to judge the case, and this time he will ruin his reputation in Liangzhou!"
morning light shines brightly, birds cry out, thick clouds crack a gap, and the sun shines down, and the whole barren mountain is bathed in the golden sun.
The fully armed imperial guards were hiding between strange rocks and long grass in the mountains. Behind a huge rock, Di Gong, Zeng Tai and Weier were looking at the map. Di Gong pointed to the map and said in confusion: "Looking at the walking route of Wang Kai and others, it seems to be heading towards the deserted castle..."
Zeng Tai nodded and said: "No, after passing Hongjia Castle, you will be the deserted castle for more than thirty miles."
Weier said: "We have passed Hongjia Castle now, and there is no other goal in front except the castle.Strange, what did they do in the castle? "
Di Gong frowned and said, "The horse we sent has not returned yet, and it is not yet certain that their destination is the Barren Mountain Castle. "
Zeng Tai said anxiously: "The horse has been hiding for nearly an hour. Mentor, now the hour is about to pass, do we have to wait any longer? "Di Gong pondered. Zeng Tai said, "Do you want to kill the imperial guards to continue moving forward? "
Di Gong slowly shook his head and said, "The more critical the moment, the more cautious you should act. Once we move forward rashly and alarm Wang Kai and his party, it will be backfire. Let’s wait for the news of the horse to be explored. "Before he finished speaking, a burst of rapid footsteps came from the front, and Zhang Huan led a raid to come and ran towards him: "Sir, you're back from exploring your horse! "
D Gong and the other two hurriedly stood up, and Zeng Tai couldn't wait to ask, "How is it? "
Exploded the horse and said, "Sir Hui, Wang Kai and others went north from here, walked about thirty miles, and entered an ancient castle in the barren mountain. "
Di Gong looked at Zeng Tai and Weier and said softly: "I really went to the castle. How strange. ”
Zeng Tai said: “Mr., what should we do now? "
Di Gong pondered for a moment and said, "Zhang Huan, ordered the imperial guards to advance at full speed, and be sure to complete the encirclement of the ancient castle before Si Shi! "
thick dark clouds gradually closed, wrapping the sun in the thick black, and thunder rolled faintly in the sky in the distance.
, which was steep and steep, suddenly towering, and an ancient castle stood at the top of the peak surrounded by flying clouds. In the castle, a black-clothed guardian walked hurriedly along the empty passage. Several transparent houses made of crystal appeared in front of them, and figures swayed inside.
, Black-clothed guardian accelerated his pace.
, "Stop! "A huge sound came from the mountain wall next to it.
Black-clothed guardian stopped.
"squeaked" and two secret doors bounced up on the mountain wall. Two guards walked out quickly, and one of them said, "Which team do you belong to? "
Black-clothed guardian said, "I belong to Team 3. "
guard said: "This is the test ground for the 'God of Death' and the absolute forbidden area of the Dark Mountain. Don't you know? "
Black-clothed Protector hurriedly said, "Of course I know. Brother, I am here to check the placement of the "God of Death" under the order of the Great Protector of Zhen. The great protector is still waiting for rewards. "
guard said: "What is the basis? "
Black-clothed guardian said: "There is a great guardian token as evidence. "
guard said, "Take it and see it. "
The black-clothed guardian hurriedly took out the token from his arms and handed it over. The guard took it, carefully checked it, and then handed over the token and said, "You go in." "Just the moment when the black-clothed guardian took the token from the guardian's hand, a black shadow flashed above his head, and the token actually flew into the air. The three of them were shocked and raised their heads.
said it quickly. At that time, one hand stretched out like lightning from the guardian's hand, pulling out the long sword at his waist. A flash of cold light, the sword edge drew a long hole in the throat of the guardian's opposite, and blood spurted out. Before the other guard could react, the long sword had quickly pierced into his chest. Just as the guard's body was about to fall, the figure flew to the guardian like lightning, and his hand pulled out the long sword at the guard's waist. , a cold light flashed, and the long sword penetrated into the chest of the black-clothed guardian opposite. These few strokes were unusually fast. The two guards and the black-clothed guardian died before they could even move. The three corpses fell to the ground almost at the same time.
"bang", and the token fell to the ground. Li Yuanfang, wearing a bronze mask, picked up the token on the ground. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes looked at the crystal house not far away. In the crystal room, several people wearing white hoods and gloves were busy constantly.
Li Yuanfang came to the door, and the guard reached out to stop him: "Stop. "
Li Yuanfang handed the token in his hand and said, "Come on the order of the great guardian of Zhen, come and check it out. "
guard checked the token, then nodded, reached out and opened the door and said, "Follow me." "
Crystal Room is the specifications of three rooms, and the first room to enter the door is the doorman. The guard of
pointed to the hood and gloves hanging on the crystal wall and said, "Wear a hood and gloves.""
Li Yuanfang turned around and took off the mask. She quickly put on the hood before the guard could take a closer look at his face, and then put the gloves on his hand. The guard also changed his clothes and reached out to open the door leading to the inner room: "Follow me." "In the second entry of the room, several Indians wearing hoods and gloves looked at the third entry through the crystal curtain wall, whispering something. The guard quickly walked to the side of the Indians and said a few words, nodded to the leader, and waved to Li Yuanfang. Yuanfang hurried over and looked towards the third entry through the crystal wall.
In the third entry, six Indians wearing hoods sat in front of the table, with many black oblong pills placed on the table. The people of the villages who were deceived by the black-clothed club lined up to receive the pills from the Indians and then took them.
Li Yuanfang said in surprise: "What are they eating? "
The Tianzhu people smiled and said, "Baolian. "
Li Yuanfang was stunned: "Ba Ling Pill, what is Bai Ling Pill? "
The Indian smiled and said, "When the time comes, you will naturally know. When I went back to the Great Guardian of the Restoration Position, everything was proceeding step by step. The first batch of villagers who set out would take one day to prepare. After all preparations were completed, the plan could begin. ”
Li Yuanfang nodded and said, “I will report to the Great Protector immediately. "Revolve and walk out. The bodies of two guards and black-clothed guardians were lying quietly on the ground. Li Yuanfang rushed over, put the token in his hand into the clothes of the black-clothed guardians, and then turned and left.
The sky was cloudy and clouds were scattered, and thunder was rolling in the distance. The gate of the castle was closed, and more than a dozen black-coated warriors were waiting in the courtyard with long swords. Suddenly, a shocking sound of trumpets came from outside the castle. The black-coated warriors were shocked and looked out.
said it was a sudden moment, and with a shocking sound of earth-shaking sound, the ancient castle gate rose into the air and fell into the courtyard. The imperial guards, led by Zhang Huan and Li Lang, rushed into the castle like tigers, and the defenseless black The robe warrior was shocked and drew his sword to fight. The silent castle instantly killed the sound of killing.
Zhang Huan and Li Lang were unstoppable. In an instant, several black-robed warriors were on the spot. Seeing that the situation was not good, the rest of the people rushed into the castle hall while resisting. Di Gong, Zeng Tai and Weier rushed into the castle under the crowd of guards, and ran towards the hall through the fierce battle. The hall was in chaos in the hall, and the imperial guards fought desperately with the black-robed warriors guarding the castle. The fierce fighting was everywhere upstairs and downstairs, and the castle was filled with shouting loudly.
Di Gong and the other two rushed into the hall, and Zhang Huan panted and rushed to the front: "Sir, you didn't see the traces of the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe! "
Di Gong waved his hand decisively: "Zhang Huan, you can immediately lead someone to the ground hall! "Revolving around and running towards the second floor. Weier beside
cut down a black robe warrior and shouted loudly: "Sir, you can go in from here! "As he said that, he rushed to the wall and pressed the mechanism on the wall. The secret door on the wall bounced up, and Di Gong led people into the secret passage.
is completely different from the fierce fighting on the floor. The ground hall is quiet. Di Gong, Zeng Tai, Weier, and Zhang Huan led the imperial guards to kill from the secret door. Looking at the silent and empty ground hall, the few people were at a loss.
Weier said in surprise: "Sir, there is no one here. "
Di Gong didn't say anything and observed around.
Zeng Tai said: "Where are the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe, will they escape? "
Di Gong shook his head and said, "They must be still here. Moreover, these three people gathered people to leave the city at night and drove to the castle not just to see it, but their trip must have a deep meaning."
Zeng Tai said: "It must be a deep meaning? Mentor, what do you mean..."
Di Gong waved his hand gently, stood in the center of the ground hall and thought quietly. The situations that had happened in the ancient castle were flashing in front of his eyes: when he first arrived at the castle, he and Yuan Fang found the secret door in the guest room and sneaked into the secret passage; hundreds of large trucks loaded with silver in the ground in the ground hall; he led the soldiers of the city defense camp into the ground hall with Zeng Tai a few days ago to search; he found that the news room opened the secret door in the northwest direction; in the wide secret passage, the ruts on the ground made of solid earth extended deep into the secret passage; at the end of the secret passage, he reached the "Gao of Death"; the ruts that suddenly disappeared, the "Gao of Death" with no way to go...
"Gao of Death, Train... Why did the ruts disappear for no reason? Why did they drive hundreds of big trucks to death? What is the mystery here..."
Zeng Tai and Weier looked at each other. Weier was about to speak, but Zeng Tai stopped him with his eyes.
Di Gong took a deep breath, raised his head and thought quietly. There seemed to be a little light in the fog in front of him, but he could not accurately capture it.
He slowly shook his head and looked at the ground inadvertently.
The ground was made of gray stone.
Ground...
Di Gong raised his head, a smile appeared on his face, and he breathed out and said, "So that's it. "Zeng Tai, who was next to
, whispered: "Teacher, what did you think of? "
Di Gong smiled and said, "It's hard to say now. "
Zeng Tai was stunned and looked at Weier in confusion.
Di Gong waved to Zeng Tai, walked quickly to the wall and said, "Do you remember how we opened the secret door of the General Information Room when we led our army to clear the castle last time? ”
Zeng Tai nodded: “Remember. ”
Di Gong said: “Open the secret door. "
Zeng Tai nodded, and the two came to the wall to find the pattern of the lion and the giant python. At the same time, pressed it, and a secret door popped up on the wall with a "bang".
Di Gong said: "Get the torch." "
Zhang Huan took the torch from a guard and handed it over. Di Gong took the torch and walked into the dark room alone, carefully checking each pulley. Each pulley in
put the purpose of the mechanism on each pulley. Suddenly, the words on a cast iron pulley in the corner attracted Di Gong's attention. There were two words written on the inconspicuous board: "Ground. "His smile appeared on
Di Gong's face, and he pulled the pull back with force. A loud bang came from outside
, followed by the exclamation of Zeng Tai, Weier and others.
Di Gong quickly walked out of the dark room, and saw the gray stone floor in the ground hall slowly cracking from the center, splitting to both sides, revealing a large dark hole below.
Di Gong and the other two looked at each other, and Zeng Tai said in surprise: "What's going on? "
Weier also said in surprise: "I have lived in the castle for so long and never knew that the ground in the ground hall could be opened. "
Di Gong shouted: "Zhang Huan, order the troops to be prepared! "Zhang Huan agreed, and the soldiers were unsheathed their bows and were ready to go. The cracked ground of
stopped moving.
was silent, surprisingly silent.
with a loud bang from the black hole, the most unexpected thing finally happened: another floor of the ground carrying hundreds of silver chariots rose from the black hole at a rapid speed. In the middle of the silver chariot, the Wang brothers, Fang Zhe and more than a dozen black-robed warriors Zhang Huang looked around in a daze.
everyone was stunned by the scene in front of him, so that there was silence in the ground hall.
suddenly, Di Gong shouted loudly: "Catch the traitor and take back the silver chariot! "The stupid imperial guards woke up as if they were dreaming. They rushed towards the black-robed warrior led by Wang Kai with a shout. Killing sounds suddenly erupted in the ground hall, and sword shadows and sword lights were lighted.
Di Gong shouted loudly: "Zhang Huan, Li Lang, capture the king first to capture the thief, and capture the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe alive! "Zhang Huan and Li Lang agreed loudly and led Qianniu Guards to rush forward.
Wang Kai, Fang Zhe and Wang Qiang waved their weapons and resisted desperately. In a blink of an eye, several guards fell to the ground.Zhang Huan's eyes were red, and he was fighting with a big stick in his hand. Li Lang led the guards to attack from the side. In an instant, the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe were surrounded by dangers. At this moment, several men in black robe shouted and rushed into the battle group, protecting the three of them back to the northeast corner.
Weier, who was watching the battle beside Di Gong, said anxiously, "Sir, I'll help!"
Di Gong said, "Be careful!"
"It's okay!" As she said that, she shouted loudly and jumped up and rushed towards Wang Kai and the other two. As Weier joined the battle, the situation immediately reversed, and several men in black robes were on the spot in a blink of an eye. Wang Kai and the other two were in a very embarrassing position. At this time, they had retreated to the corner of the east wall and saw that there was no way out. Wang Qiang flashed rapidly and forced Zhang Huan to retreat, who was attacking fiercely, turned around and pressed on the wall, and a secret door bounced up. Wang Qiang shouted, "Brother, Brother Fang, enter the secret passage!" As he said that, the three of them fought hard, forced Qianniu Guard to retreat, and turned around and rushed into the secret passage.
Weier shouted loudly: "Chasing!"
suddenly burst out from the secret passage, and he rushed straight to Weier and the guards.
Di Gong exclaimed, "Poisonous gas, lie down quickly, cover your mouth and nose!"
Weier and the guards hurriedly fell to the ground and covered their mouth and nose.
white smoke slowly dissipates.
Weier jumped up and shouted, "Don't let them run away, chase!"
Zhang Huan led the guards to shout and rushed into the secret passage with Weier. The battle in the ground hall of
has basically ended, and most of the dozen black-robed men were killed. Li Lang led several Qianniu Guards to escort a captured black-robed warrior to Di Gong. Li Lang shouted, "Kneel down!"
black-robed warrior sneered, "A man would rather die while standing than live while kneeling!" As he said that, he bit his upper and lower teeth hard.
Di Gong exclaimed, "No, he is going to commit suicide..." Before he finished speaking, a trace of black blood flowed down the corner of the black-robed warrior's mouth, and his body fell heavily to the ground.
Di Gong stepped forward, leaned over and spread his upper jaw, and took out a red pill from between his teeth.
Zeng Tai said in surprise: "Poison!"
Di Gong sighed: "What a great black-clad club." As he said that, he stood up and turned around, "Li Lang, please open the boxes on the cart!"
Li Lang agreed loudly and led the guards to open the wooden boxes on the cart with all their strength. Hundreds of silver ingots were neatly placed inside.
Zeng Tai was overjoyed and kept walking between the silver carts. After reading this box, he looked at the box again. Finally, he shouted ecstatically: "Mr., five million taels of silver, a penny is not enough, it's all here!"
Di Gong also showed a winning smile on his face.
Zeng Tai walked to Di Gong and said happily: "Mr. Master, you are so amazing. How did you think that Fengyin is in the castle? And how did you think there is another floor under this hall?"
Di Gong smiled and said: "Do you still remember why we decided to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, alarm the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe? Wang Qiang is responsible for the transfer of Fengyin, and must know the whereabouts of Fengyin. He will definitely go to check it secretly, or use Fengyin for some secret activities. So as long as we follow the Wang brothers or Fang Zhe, we will definitely find Fengyin's whereabouts."
Zeng Tai suddenly realized: "I understand. The so-called knocking on the mountain and shake the tiger is to make them feel dangerous and move first."
Di Gong nodded and said: "That's right. Wang Qiang is responsible for Fengyin's whereabouts."
Zeng Tai suddenly realized: "I understand. The so-called knocking on the mountain and shake the tiger is to make them feel dangerous and move first."
Di Gong nodded and said: "That's right. Wang Qiang is responsible for Fengyin's. Arrange and hide. Once he feels that his identity is exposed, the danger is right in front of him. Then, his first reaction is to transfer Shengyin to a safer place and then hide it himself. This is what I mean by knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger."
Zeng Tai asked again, "What did you think that Shengyin is in the ancient castle?"
Di Gong smiled and said, "Zeng Tai, I am not a god, and it is impossible to know in advance when there is no clue. When the Wang brothers led the team out of the city, I just vaguely felt that they might go to Shengyin to hide, but I didn't expect that they would come to the ancient castle. When I learned that they had arrived at the ancient castle, I was once confused whether they were going out of the city for Shengyin or had another purpose.However, just now, when I was looking for the whereabouts of the Wang brothers and Fang Zhe, I suddenly thought of some things we had experienced. ”
Zeng Tai hurriedly asked: “What’s the matter? "
Di Gong said: "Do you still remember the night when the two of us led our army to clear the castle? ”
Zeng Tai said: “Of course I remember. "
Di Gong said: "At that time, we discovered the news room, opened the large tunnel leading to the 'Gao of Death', and found many ruts on the ground of the tunnel, so we chased along the ruts and arrived at the 'Gao of Death' early the next morning. At this moment, the ruts disappeared and all traces disappeared. ”
Zeng Tai recalled: “Not bad. "
Di Gong said: "I was very confused at that time. Why did these people drive hundreds of silver carts into the tunnel without entering the "Dark Mountain" through the secret door of the "Gather of Death"? Through the conversation with Weier that night, I felt that this matter was very strange. I vaguely felt that we must have overlooked something in the castle floor hall. "
Zeng Tai said: "So mentor, what have we ignored? ”
Di Gong smiled and said, “Roads. "
Zeng Tai became more and more puzzled: "Ruits, are they ruts? "
Di Gong nodded: "Yes. At that time, we only thought that the ruts were moving along the tunnel, but we didn't expect that these ruts could be left behind when they drove the silver cart back to the ground hall. "
Zeng Tai was extremely puzzled and looked at Di Gong in confusion: "Run back to the ground hall? The student was confused. "
Di Gong explained: "It means that they first drove the silver cart into the tunnel, and after they reached the 'Gao of Death', they would drive the silver cart back to the castle. "
Zeng Tai still didn't understand: "But, why is this? "
Di Gong said: "The most dangerous place is the safest. Yuan Fang and I discovered the traces of the silver cart when we explored the castle, which made Wang Qiang think that we were likely to come back. To be on the safe side, they set up a maze, and first drove the silver cart into the tunnel to the "Gao of Death", making us think that they had transported the silver money out of the castle and disappeared. Then, using the intricate secret passage mechanism of the castle, he drove the silver cart back and hid it on the second floor of the ground hall. "
" is such a clever plan. "Zeng Tai finally understood.
" After visiting the castle, I thought more than once: such a huge amount of money, no matter how it transfers, it will be a huge goal. What method did the black-clothed society use to make their gods evaporate in the world without knowing it, and without any flaws? Finally, this time we found the answer. "
" Then how did you find that there is another floor under this hall? "
Di Gong smiled: "This is very simple, the ground. ”
Zeng Tai was stunned again: “Ground? "
Di Gong nodded: "That's right. Yuanfang and I visited the castle. When we entered the ground hall, we saw that the ground hall was rammed out of solid soil. But just now, I accidentally lowered my head and found that the original rammed earth ground has now become paved with gray stone. From this, I infer that there must be another floor under the hall, and Xiangyin, Wang brothers and Fang Zhe are lying dormant and waiting for the opportunity. "
Zeng Tai sighed and said sincerely: "There is only one mentor in the world who can perform such a complex reasoning. "
Di Gong smiled and said, "This is a bit too much. I have said a long time ago that reasonable inference comes from meticulous observation and meticulous thinking. As long as these two points can be achieved, anyone can make accurate reasoning. "
Zeng Tai smiled and said, "Maybe there are too few people who can do these two things. "
" sir! "Vier's cry came from outside. Di Gong and Zeng Tai turned around and saw Weier and Zhang Huan lead Qianniuwei back from the original route.
Di Gong hurriedly came forward: "How is it? Have you caught it? "
Weier shook her head in frustration and said, "After entering the secret passage, these three evil thieves turned around and disappeared in a short while. Zhang Huan and I led people to search the whole secret passage, but found nothing. "
Di Gong nodded: "I thought of it. The castle is Wang Qiang's nest. He is the most familiar with every mechanism here. As long as he is asked to escape into the secret door, it will be difficult to tell. "
Weier said ashamedly: "Weier is incompetent."
Di Gong smiled and said, "Okay, don't blame yourself. Our attack not only defeated the black-clothed rebel party led by the Wang brothers, but also found the robbed five million taels of silver, which can also be regarded as a complete victory. "
Weier nodded unwillingly and said unwillingly: "It's a pity that the three evil thieves ran away. "
Di Gong smiled and said, "Don't worry, they can't run away. Zeng Tai, after returning to Liangzhou, immediately issued a document of arrest and arrested three rebels. ”
Zeng Tai said: “Yes! "Before he finished speaking, the captain of the imperial guard rushed over: "Sir. "
Di Gong said: "How is it? "The captain of
said: "All the rebels in the castle have been eliminated. Except for those killed in the battle, we captured more than ten people, but, but..."
Di Gong sighed: "But all of these people died of poison. "The captain of
said in surprise: "Sir, do you know too? "
Di Gong nodded and looked at everyone: "You see it, this is the Black Club. Zeng Tai, although we have found Shengyin, there are too many mysteries that have not been solved yet. Those mysterious things that killed people invisibly, the Indians who died in the post station, the true feelings of robbing wages in the desert, and the mysterious "Dark Mountain". With years of experience in case-breaking, I have a vague feeling that we are about to get to the core of this case. However, this is also the most dangerous time. "
Zeng Tai and Weier looked at each other and nodded slowly.
Di Gong said: "Zhang Huan, you should immediately return to Liangzhou with the order of my imperial envoy, and transfer the army under the Liangzhou Guards to the ancient castle to escort the silver money. Be sure to arrive tonight! "
rings answered "Yes! ", turned around and ran out of the ground hall.
Di Gong said: "Zeng Tai, ordered the imperial guards to be on guard and protect the safety of the money. When the Liangzhou Guard Army arrives, we will return to Liangzhou immediately! "Zeng Tai agreed loudly and turned around and left.
Di Gong let out a long sigh and said softly: "It has been a day and a night, I wonder how Yuanfang is doing now. "
The corpse of two guards and a black-clothed guardian lying on the ground. The guardian's long sword was inserted in front of his chest, and the guardian's long sword was inserted in front of his chest.
The earthquake-headed guardian led more than a dozen followers to carefully examine the wounds on the body. One follower said, "Great Guardian, judging from this situation, these three people seemed to fight each other to death. "
The Great Protector said: "In the afternoon, I ordered Zhang Guo to check the preparations of the 'God of Death'. He was carrying my token on his body. How could such a thing happen? "
follower said: "Can it be that the check token had an argument with the guards, and that it made the fight. "
Great Protector shook his head and said, "I understand Zhang Guo, he will never act so impulsively. "Before he finished speaking, the guard in front of the Crystal Room was brought to the Great Guardian by two black-clothed guardians.
guardians said, "Zhang Guo came to check with the token. Have you seen him? "
guard said, "I saw it." He stayed in the crystal room for a while, and after Qika explained the situation to him, he left. "
great protector said: "Oh? In other words, the deaths of these three people happened after Zhang Guo checked from the crystal room. "
follower said: "It depends on the situation, it should be. "
Great Protector shook his head and said, "This is even more wrong. If they had an argument because they checked the token, then since Zhang Guo had finished checking, why did these two guards still check his token? Isn’t this an unnecessary move? "
The Great Protector pondered for a moment, and suddenly, she thought of something, squatted down and groped on Zhang Guo, and took out the token.
She said in confusion: "The token is there. This is really strange. Are they really angry and died in a fight? "
She reached out and took off Zhang Guo's mask and said to the guard of the crystal room: "Look, is it him who just came to the crystal room to inspect it? "The guard of
looked and said, "I didn't see clearly when I returned to the Great Protector. It seems, it seems to be it. "
Great Protector glared at him: "Baste! "
guard hurriedly said, "Yes, yes.""
Great Protectors stood up and said, "To be on the safe side, you will immediately pass on my order. All the black-clad Protectors in the 'Dark Mountain' will take off their masks immediately and take them to the underground palace gathering point to investigate! "
Several black-clothed guardians bowed and said, "Yes! "
Teams of black-clothed guardians who took off their bronze masks walked into various passages under the leadership of the captains of each team and headed towards the underground palace. Some of these guardians were Westerners and some were Han people.
Li Yuanfang wore a mask and black robe, turned forward two bends along the passage, and stopped. He lifted up the mask, identified the direction, and turned toward the fork in his right hand. Suddenly, a silence came from behind: "Stop! "
Li Yuanfang stopped and turned around. A black-clothed guardian walked quickly to him: "Don't you know the Dharma of the Great Guardian? ”
Li Yuanfang said: “What law? "
The black-clothed guardian said: "All black-clothed guardians in the 'Dark Mountain' removed their masks and went to the underground palace to wait for a check. "
Li Yuanfang suddenly felt a sudden stern in her heart and hurriedly said, "Ah, I just went to do business under the order of the captain, but I didn't hear the order. "
Black-clothed Guardian looked at him and said, "Which team do you belong to? "
Li Yuanfang asked back, "Brother, which team do you belong to? "
Black-clothed guardian said arrogantly: "I am the captain of Team 4. ”
Li Yuanfang said casually: “I am from the first team. "
Black-clothed guardian said: "First team? Take off your mask. "
Li Yuanfang reached out and took off the mask on her face.
Black-clothed guardian looked him up and down and said, "Are you from the first team? "
Li Yuanfang said: "That's right. "
The black-clothed guardian looked at him in confusion and said, "Why are you so indifferent? ”
Li Yuanfang smiled and said, “Ah, captain, I am new to you. "
Black-clothed Guardian said: "What's the name of the newcomer? ”
Li Yuanfang said: “Li Si. "As he said that, his hand slowly removed the black belt around his waist.
Black-clothed guardian said, "You said you are from the first team, what's your captain's name? "
Li Yuanfang raised his hand and pointed to the distance, "Look, our captain is here. "
Black-clothed Protector was stunned and turned his head to look into the distance. Sure enough, a team of black-clothed Protectors came from afar. Just as he was about to speak, Li Yuanfang had already walked over.
Black-clothed Protectors shouted loudly: "Stop! "
Yuan Fang ignored it and walked forward with great strides. The black-clothed guardian became more and more confused. He trotted and chased after Li Yuanfang. Yuan Fang shook his wrist and the black belt rushed out like a poisonous snake between his fingers, quickly wrapping around the black-clothed guardian's ankle. Yuan Fang twitched his one-arm power back hard. Without any notice, his body flew up in the air. He turned twice in a row, slapped his head and slapped heavily on the ground. Blood immediately flowed from his head and fainted.
Li Yuanfang squatted down quickly, picked up the black-clothed guardian and shouted: "Captain, captain! "At the same time, the team of guardians in the distance had already walked in front of him. Seeing this, he stopped and the captain in charge asked, "What's going on? "
Li Yuanfang said in a crying voice: "I am from Team 4, this is our captain. Somehow, he slid down and fell into a big fight, and that's how it turned out. "
captain frowned and said, "Put him on his back and follow us to the underground palace, and ask the great guardian to deal with it. "
Li Yuanfang hurriedly said, "Yes, yes. "As he said that, he raised his faint black-clothed guardian and followed the team to the underground palace.
The large guardian stood in front of the giant round platform, and several followers stood beside him.
As the gate of the underground palace opened, each team of black-clothed guardian walked into the underground palace under the leadership of the captain, and lined up in nine rows in teams. The large guardian said, "Are you all here? "The follower beside him quickly walked to the front of the team and checked, "Go back to the Great Guardian, Team 10 has not arrived yet, and the captain of Team 4 has not arrived either. "Have not finished speaking, a bunch of footsteps sounded at the gate. The captain of the 10th team led the team members to quickly walk into the underground palace. Li Yuanfang followed the captain of the fourth team behind his back.
only listened to the captain of the tenth team saying, "Great Protector, Gu Qi, the captain of the fourth team, just fainted due to a fall in the passage. Please ask the Grand Protector to leave."
Great Protector said: "Oh, where are you? ”
Li Yuanfang hurriedly replied: “Here, here. "As he said that, he buried his head down and walked quickly to the Great Dharma Protector with Gu Qi on his back and said, "Great Dharma Protector, look. "The
guardian reached out and pulled Gu Qi's head. Gu Qi's face was covered in blood, his nose was crooked, and even his eyebrows were sunken. The
guardian frowned and said, "How could he fall like this? It's such a waste! OK, OK, carry him under him to heal his wounds. "
Li Yuanfang replied yes, carrying Gu Qi on his back.
" Wait! "The Great Protector shouted loudly.
Li Yuanfang stopped and said, "The Great Protector, what else do you have to give? "
Great Protector walked to Li Yuanfang and said, "Raise your head. "
Li Yuanfang took a deep breath, raised her head, turned her body slightly, and turned her back to the fourth team of black-clothed guardians standing down to ensure that no one below could recognize him.
guardians looked at him and asked, "What's your name? ”
Li Yuanfang said: “Li Si. "
Great Protector nodded and said, "Send him to Eagle Station and treat him as soon as possible. We will set off soon. ”
Li Yuanfang said: “Please rest assured by the great protector, I will go immediately. "As he said that, he carried Gu Qi's body upwards and walked quickly towards the gate of the underground palace. He heard the great guardian behind him say, "Captains of each team, start checking! ”
Li Yuanfang breathed a sigh of relief.
