Chapter 8 The main culprit of divination, temporary intention
But at the moment, Li Xiu doesn't seem to be optimistic about the Beiminghai side. He is thinking about how to add fuel to the fire. Anyway, there will be chaos sooner or later, and Li Xiu is not afraid of more chaos.
At this moment, Li Xiu saw the masters from the General's Mansion and Tiandu Yuan retreating in large numbers. The people in the lead, surrounded by many masters, quickly retreated into Beiguan Pass. Although it was dark, Li Xiu
Xiu sensed the aura of an old friend, and the woman being surrounded should be Russell Jing.
The original daughter of the King of Hell had a very tough background. Even if Li Ruocheng had not given up demons and practiced Taoism, he would have been replaced by her sooner or later, Li Xiu thought to himself.
Speaking of which, Beihaiguan, the first gateway to the north of the Bule Kingdom, is not as good as Guyangguan in terms of geographical advantages. There is a horizontal line between the dangerous peaks of the Beihaiguan about a hundred miles away. This open area has been around since the Bule Kingdom.
Not long after it was established, an iron wall was built across the city, and there was a moat in front of it. The moat was ninety-nine feet wide and ninety-nine feet deep. The black iron wall was thirteen feet high and five feet thick. Ten buildings were built along the way.
There are eight beacon towers, one hundred and eight large turrets, and tens of thousands of crossbows. If you include the main pass of Beihaiguan, there are a total of three cities for garrisoning troops on the horizontal line. All of these are built by manpower.
There is no natural danger to defend, so defense can only rely on human power.
Li Xiu looked at the large number of monks who kept retreating into Beiguan in the darkness, and then turned to look in the direction of Beiminghai. After a long time, he was sure that there were no pursuers behind him. Li Xiu frowned, could it be that Beiminghai
Is Thirty-Six Islands going to end like this?
However, Li Xiu suddenly felt a sign in his heart. This kind of sign was familiar to Li Xiu, and it was not a good thing. Li Xiu ignored the others and calmed down to do some calculations. However, his frown became deeper and deeper.
An obvious word "Chuan" appeared.
"Hiss—" Li Xiu had never encountered anything like this before. There were obvious signs, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Li Xiu turned around and went down the mountain, reached halfway up the mountain, and dug around in the snow. It turned out that there was a clump of dry grass buried deep in the snow. Li Xiu grabbed a handful of hay, took out fifty pieces, and then went to another place.
One, there were forty-nine hays left in his hand. He divided them into two parts at will. Li Xiu squatted in the snow and placed the hays in his left and right hands on both sides. Li Xiu breathed out lightly and began to take out a hay from the left.
Grass, sandwiched between the four and five fingers of the left hand...
Li Xiu is using an ancient divination method to predict good and bad luck. This method is called "hanging one to symbolize three". Three is the three talents, that is, the three talents of heaven, earth and man.
This is an ancient divination method called yarrow divination. The number of Dayan is fifty, and the number forty is nine. Divide it into two to symbolize two. Hang one to symbolize three. Pull it to symbolize four.
At four o'clock, the strange thing is that the stick is used to symbolize a leap; at the age of five, there is a leap again, so the stick is stuck and then hung... The four camps become easy, and eight out of ten changes become hexagrams.
Li Xiu had a piece of hay left on his right hand, so he took off a piece of hay on the little finger of his left hand. The total was two hours, which was recorded as Yao...and so on, changing Yao repeatedly, and it took half a stick of incense.
He stretched out his hand and burned the hay, then stood up and looked at Beiguan Pass, his expression not very good.
This divination was repeated three times, and the results were all negative.
In Li Xiu's opinion, this kind of divination has a certain element of luck, but if luck is added together, it means bad luck, so it is no longer luck. In addition, the hint of omen in his heart just now skipped by, so Li Xiu would rather believe it.
Its existence cannot be trusted and its non-existence cannot be ignored.
"Could it be that Li Zhong and Wang Shuang were in trouble?" Li Xiu had to think about this. If he killed the owner of the Yin-Yang Mirror, how could the Tiandu Yuan just let it go? If the two of them left in advance, they might be able to avoid the disaster. Once they stay,
If they were waiting for him nearby, they would be discovered by the people of Tiandu Yuan. How could Li Zhong and Wang Shuang cope with the masters of Tiandu Yuan?
Nowadays, there are many experts in Beihai Customs. Li Xiu doesn't want to force his way in, so he can't do it by force. It seems that he can only go and investigate.
Moreover, even he could not deduce the result of the omen just now using the Three Corpses Technique. He could only borrow the wisdom of the ancients. It can be seen that the enemy's cultivation level is extremely high. He may have some magic weapon that conceals the secret. Li Xiu can only divine it through divination.
It is a good or bad thing, but it cannot be used to predict the specific cause and effect of the incident like the Three Corpses Technique. However, Li Xiu's current cultivation level is not comparable to that of a few days ago, so the slightest sign in his heart was immediately discovered by him, so he was alert. If it had happened before
, maybe it won’t be discovered.
There was nothing to hesitate. Li Xiu disguised himself from the inside out. Even his genes and cells completely changed into another person. Not to mention his bones, muscles, etc., at this time, his figure looked slightly burly.
His height has not changed much, but even Li Ruocheng probably wouldn't be able to recognize Li Xiulai. Li Xiu hid his cultivation to the middle stage of the Golden Core. This kind of cultivation is like a deacon elder in the declining Wufeng. However,
In Bule Country, there are too many golden elixir monks. For a sect like Taiqing Palace, if you want to become an elder, the worst you can do is to be in the late golden elixir stage. Unless a few people with excellent bones can make an exception, Li Xiu walked into the crowd like this.
A passerby. Then, Li Xiu took out a set of robes from the Dharma Ring and put it on. It was suitable for this cold weather. If Li Xiu was still wearing a single jacket and a short coat, it would look out of place.
The masters from the General's Mansion and the Tiandu Yuan gradually retreated into the Beihai Pass. Li Xiu mixed in with the last batch and entered the customs smoothly. The sergeant had already closed the formation mechanism, and the passage on the moat leading to the city gate quickly disappeared.
When he disappeared, the door slammed shut. At this time, even if someone was alone, someone had to come and confirm before he could pass through the customs and enter the city.
When Li Xiu entered the city gate, the first thing he felt was pressure, not the pressure of a strong man. This was the outer city. There were no extra buildings. It was empty. It was said to be an outer city, but it was actually just an iron barrel. Enter
Then it can station troops, and when it retreats, it can be used as a portal. The walls on all four sides are thirteen feet high, and a large turret is built on each side. Li Xiu can sense that the energy of these four turrets is saturated. If something goes wrong, he will be killed at any time.
Can be launched.
This kind of turret is a magic weapon in itself. It does not require the spiritual infusion of monks. As long as it is filled with high-level spiritual stones, even ordinary soldiers can fire it. It can easily destroy the strong men of Golden Core Perfection. The only drawback is that it is not flexible enough.
It depends on whether the shot can be accurate, and which monk of the Golden Core Perfection can't seek good luck and avoid disaster? So this kind of turret can theoretically be used by ordinary soldiers, but unless it is on the battlefield, it can kill and injure a person without asking for accuracy.
Blockbuster. If you want to use it to target powerful enemies, you must have it in the hands of equally powerful monks to unleash the strongest lethality of the turret. After all, monks are far superior to ordinary soldiers in terms of eyesight and reaction, and can accurately predict in advance.
Judgment, kill with one strike!
All the people who had returned from the defeat in Beiminghai gathered in the outer city, and Li Xiu also sneaked in. Li Xiu knew that this was to prevent enemy infiltration, and he was not allowed to enter the inner city, whether it was from the General's Palace or the Heavenly Governor's Palace.
Everyone was treated equally. The senior management was in contact. Not long after, a person in charge came to speak. Li Xiu saw that this person was no stranger. Wasn't it Yu Wanhe who was injured by his Yin Yang Mirror? He didn't expect to recover so quickly.
Injured?
"No, there are traces of the Three Corpses Technique on his body. Although he cracked it, he can't hide it from me!" Li Xiu suddenly understood.
Although the Three Corpses Technique is only Li Xiu's first method, it is extremely sophisticated. It is the experience summed up by Li Xiu's two worlds. The traces left by those injured by his Three Corpses Technique are unique.
. At this time, Li Xiuke confirmed the origin of his divination of bad omens. It seemed that Li Zhong and Wang Shuang would definitely fall into the hands of this person. Wang Shuang had not really stepped onto the threshold and could not perform the Three Corpses Art, but
With the help of hand seals, Li Zhong can exert his best efforts. Just like when the wizened old man killed Huang Chao, he also needed the hand seals to complement him, otherwise it would be extremely difficult to achieve the effect. Li Zhong's cultivation level is far inferior to that of the wizened old man. Fortunately, the three corpse method is decisive
The strengths of Bo Liang Jie, even if they are extremely strong, there is no way to break it. They can only use brute force and spend time to slowly break it.
"Everyone! Please be quiet!" Yu Wanhe said: "I have just received reliable news that in order to deal with us, the islands of the North Minghai Sea have invited powerful men from the demon clan who have disappeared for more than a thousand years to come out. Maybe they will do it in the near future.
There is a large-scale operation, and it is very likely that a beast wave will attack!"
"What? A mighty monster?"
"Tide of beasts? What the hell is that? It's only recorded in classics. Will it come true?"
"What if we drive magic weapons to attack, even if the beast tide attacks? No matter how many of them there are, they are just here to deliver food. By then, countless demon pills will become our meal. This is good news.
!”
"That's right, Beihaiguan is impregnable, but there is only a tide of beasts, little Doyle!"
There was an explosion in the crowd, and suddenly everyone was not afraid, but their morale increased greatly.
"Everyone, everyone, please listen to me, Lao Yu, say a few more words!" Yu Wanhe pressed his hands, and when everyone gradually looked at him, Yu Wanhe said: "Let's work together to fight against foreign enemies, mere beasts.
Of course, the tide is nothing. As long as the monster beast army is defeated, the plans of the islands in the North Minghai Sea will be defeated by themselves. What should the unskilled wild man be afraid of? Wait for us to rectify our troops and counterattack Wanli,
The country's worries have been completely solved. You are all great contributors. You will be rewarded according to your hard work in exchange for your merits. You can also be promoted to officials and nobles, which will benefit future generations. However, we have just suffered a new defeat. In order to prevent the enemy from getting into our ranks,
If unnecessary losses are caused, I ask for your cooperation. You must verify your identity and count them one by one according to the roster before you can enter the inner city to rest."
"So that's it!" Everyone then understood the purpose of stopping them in the outer city. Naturally, few people dared to complain at this time. Even if they were angry, many people chose to cooperate.
"Fuck your mother!" However, not everyone was willing to obey. Some people had angry expressions on their faces, and one voice was particularly clear, showing that they had extremely deep skills.
It doesn't hurt to stand and talk. I'm working hard outside, and my disciples have suffered heavy casualties. When I come back, I still have to be insulted by you. Who needs to verify his identity? Let him stand up and fart! You are not qualified to point fingers at me!
"
Yu Wanhe said: "Who are you? It's useless to hide your head and show your tail. If you want to speak, you must stand up first!"
"My surname is Yu, what I said is what all the brothers want to say. Why, you Tiandu Yuan still want to kill them all? Just now on the battlefield, the people of Tiandu Yuan ignored the overall situation and dispersed in a hurry, causing us to wait in vain
Thousands of more comrades have been sacrificed, so why don’t you ask Heisheng to speak out? If you ask him to come forward, I will suspect that he is a spy, and he will be the first person to be tested to verify his identity!"
If everyone thought that the voice was deliberately provoking trouble after the first sentence, then the second sentence was spoken, it really hit everyone's heart!
They are all monks who defy heaven and cultivate immortality. Who can hold back the anger in his heart?
"That's right. Let the black rope come out to verify your identity. Otherwise, we will kill the general and go up to seek justice. Are the inspectors of the Tiandu Yuan great? Treating the lives of comrades as trivial is a small act, and no one will be punished.
How can you convince the public by speaking the Dharma?”
"Black Rope, get out!"
"What bullshit Tianduyuan, eat shit!"
"Go back, old man Yu, people from Tiandu Yuan are not qualified to stand in front of us, we want to see the commander-in-chief!"
"Russell Jing, get out of here, don't hide behind your back and pretend to be your granddaughter!"
…
These people who followed and shouted were almost all two masters of the General's Mansion. They had been badly harmed by the people of Tianduyuan just now. Now that someone is taking the lead, they can't bear it anymore!
