There is no conclusive evidence when it comes to suspecting wine sacrifices, just analysis.
When the two of them went upstairs, Long Yuan's people didn't let them take the spirit envoy with them. This was obviously an anomaly and had nothing to do with the exam. Ju Tianxuan didn't cheat on the exam, could it be to prevent the spirit envoy from reporting him?
Considering that Ju Tianxuan said that she had kept this secret and didn't want others to know about it, she could only prevent the messenger from passing on the news.
Who can the spirit messenger convey the message to? It is nothing more than Long Yuan and sacrificial wine.
It was impossible to guard against Long Yuan. If she guarded against Long Yuan due to personal matters, she would not live in Long Yuan's house at all and send Long Yuan's disciples, and she would only offer wine as a sacrifice.
Moreover, there are not many people who can allow the leader of Long Yuan to hide his head and tail on his own territory, and offering wine is one of them.
Turtle Master was very angry after hearing this, and said: "What? That stupid sacrificial wine actually wants to harm you? I just said that those blind and unscrupulous descendants of Long Yuan can't even invite people. What the hell are they inviting?"
Just wait until I think about it..." It closed its eyes, shook its head and thought for a while, then opened its eyes and said, "I thought of it, it's a guy named Tuo, a guy with the surname Tuo. It seems to be called Tuoyang..."
Tang Zhao suddenly thought of the grass-mud horse and shook his head repeatedly. Following the clues given by the turtle, he recalled it and said: "Hunchback...Zhu Yang?"
Mr. Turtle shouted: "Yes, yes, that's the name! Listen, he has all the pigs, sheep, and camels. How greedy is he?"
Tang Zhao said: "No, his name is Zhu Yang, but his nickname is Maozi. Maolong's Mao."
Turtle Master blinked his eyes and said, "Is it possible? Anyway, people call him Mr. Tuo, maybe it's a nickname. Hey, why are you so familiar to me? Do you recognize him?"
Tang Zhao sighed, he didn't recognize it, he had heard of it.
This is an old debt from his old mentor Xue Xianyun.
When he left, Shi Chunqing gave him a long list. They were all people Xue Xianyun had offended in the past. Their statuses were high and low, and their grievances were big and small. It can only be said that people like Zhu Yang were not high on the list.
Where's number three?
Not only does this person's status and reputation not rank among the top three, but the hatred Xue Xianyun has with him also doesn't rank among the top three.
It seems that Xue Xianyun destroyed this man's hand back then. For a swordsmith, this was an unforgettable hatred, but Xue Xianyun also did other more egregious things. Those bits just didn't form.
There is an "Avengers Alliance", otherwise Zhuoyu Villa would have to be dug out, not to mention hiding in Jiugao Mountain, even if it was hiding in the eighteenth level of hell.
Tang Zhao pondered for a moment and said: "It wouldn't be surprising if he is the one with evil intentions towards our disciples, but... I haven't heard that he has a very high status and a great reputation? He has not belonged to a certain sect so far, so he is just a Sanren, right? Long Yuan
What kind of power, why would you choose him as the sacrificial wine?"
This Zhu Yang is said to have become a very famous Talisman Sword Master in Jinzhou, but it is said that he has not succeeded in making swords and has become a swordsmith, which is about the same as Xue Xianyun. No matter what unique skills you have, a Talisman Sword Master is a Talisman Sword Master.
The reputation of the Talisman Sword Master is lower than that of the Sword Forger, and it is even recognized that the Talisman Sword Master is the apprentice of the Sword Forger. Why should he be a Talisman Master?
Turtle Master thought thoughtfully and said: "I don't know about this either. But I heard that the people above are doing everything they can to regain their reputation. They are definitely not the ones chosen according to the conventional rules."
Since Mr. Gui doesn't know, Tang Zhao can't guess it blindly. He can only guess that Zhu Yang cannot be taken lightly at face value. He must have a strategy in his mind and a powerful article hidden. He is capable of offering wine and will not fall into the trap of Long Yuan's talisman meeting.
of ambition.
But no matter how powerful you are, you can't bully me?
Now that I have bullied you, I have no control over your offering of wine or ten. You have to do it first.
Not only did he prepare for this scene himself, he also had to inform Jiang Shenyi.
This is not his personal grudge, but a grudge between his master and his sect. If Jijiu was really dealing with him because of old grudges, how could he not deal with Jiang Shenyi? Both of them are in danger, so naturally they should fight side by side.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Shenyi arrived quite slowly. Tang Zhao waited for two full days, and waited until the day before the decisive battle in Maze City, before this senior brother came belatedly.
In the past two days, the number of people in Maze City has gradually increased. Those who successfully passed through the level, or those who did not go so well and simply did not try their luck in Maze City, have mostly arrived at this last stop.
The Maze City has never been more lively.
Although according to the tacit agreement, the final battle should be on the last day, small conflicts have already occurred everywhere. Instead of fighting in the house, everyone uses ever-changing magic tools and symbols combined with "trap, deception, abduction, and deception" to steal questions.
It can be said that the Eight Immortals crossed the sea and each showed their magical powers, but in the end they were still fighting in small ways to accumulate strength for the decisive battle.
Tang Zhao was mainly steady and did not attack, but he was constantly being stolen into his house. The design of the maze city meant that unless the owner left home, there would be too many disadvantages when entering someone else's territory. Tang Zhao stayed in the house the whole time, without having to use his own strength.
Just move your fingers and sweep away the little thieves.
While he was watching the battle upstairs, he also saw his sister Yun running back and forth several times. However, instead of performing her duties, she was busy stealing questions. It turned out that although Ju Tianxuan's cake was large, she couldn't eat it.
There are not that many villains and lunatics in Labyrinth City, but Yi Zhixin is special. Even if a group of people has some perverted hobbies, why can't they tolerate it for a day or two? Why is it necessary to commit murder on such a occasion?
Except for Yi Zhixin's 100 questions, Yun Xiyan did not get any other rewards, so she had to rely on her own efforts. Her method was also simple and crude. She asked who knew more questions, then directly knocked on their door and pinched their necks to ask them to hand over the questions.
If you use your house to resist, your house will also be raised for you.
It’s just that she also knew not to push people into a hurry, so she would only give them a few dozen questions at a time before letting them go. This way, the flow was smooth, but the progress was slow, especially later on, when she stole all the simple questions, but found those with difficult questions.
No one could answer the question, so I had to try it from house to house. Fortunately, she was more particular about it. She passed by Tang Zhao's house several times, but her brother couldn't be bothered.
Tang Zhao also saw the brothers and sisters in Liangzhou and said hello specially. The two of them also went through the exams all the way, and they only got 600 or 700 questions, and they still need to work harder. Tang Zhao is in trouble now, and he doesn't want to
It would drag down allies, so he didn't join forces with the two of them.
Finally, Jiang Shenyi came.
Tang Zhao went to the city gate to pick him up. When Jiang Shenyi saw Tang Zhao, he was so excited that he didn't even bother to exchange greetings. He grabbed his hand and said, "Junior brother, I have found my own way!"
Tang Zhao was stunned and asked: "What way?"
Jiang Shenyi said: "The path of a Talisman Master."
Tang Zhaodao: "The path of a Talisman Sword Master?"
Jiang Shenyi repeated: "Fu Master! What Fu Sword Master? Fu Shi is the most mysterious existence that explains the principles of heaven and earth. What does it have to do with swords? Do all good deeds in heaven and earth have to be named sword?"
Tang Zhao felt weird and said: "Senior brother, who did you listen to?"
Jiang Shenyi stopped talking and said: "It's a long story. In short, I have finally found the starting point of the road that I was confused about before. Although I can't see the end yet, I have already set foot on that road."
Tang Zhao was excited when he heard what he said, and couldn't help but whisper: "Senior brother, haven't you fallen into some evil path?"
Jiang Shenyi said angrily: "You are evil. Alas, I know you are not the same as me, but you still like swords. That's right, everyone in the world is like this. No one has passed my road, so I will go first
I'm not in a hurry to bring you in. But don't think that you are the only one who is on the right path and everyone else is the wrong path. I have never been able to convince you, but don't worry. In two or three days, there will be someone who is more eloquent than me.
, people with deeper knowledge and farther will tell you, and they will also tell everyone, what Fu Dao is!"
Tang Zhao asked curiously: "Who is that person?"
Jiang Shenyi said: "This year's wine ceremony!"
…
Tang Zhao was confused.
After receiving the warning, he deduced the sacrificial wine from clues and learned the identity of the sacrificial wine. This should be a sure thing, right?
Unexpectedly, the story Jiang Shenyi brought was even more magical. It is said that he met the new Jiujiu on the road, and the two unique talents hit it off and became close friends.
In front of the labyrinth city, it was inconvenient for Jijiu to interfere in the fight for seats, so he was allowed to enter the city first. But the two of them agreed that they would contact each other again after the talisman meeting to study the avenue together. Jiang Shenyi even planned to study under him for a while.
.
Jiang Shenyi also said solemnly: "I have a mentor, so I can't join his disciples. However, after revealing my mentor, I will recognize him as my teacher. There is no harm in forming a teacher-student relationship. Junior brother, do you want to go with us?"
Tang Zhao was in a mess and instinctively blurred it out. At this time, he couldn't figure it out, so he had to tell Jiang Shenyi the original news.
Someone wants to harm us.
When Jiang Shenyi heard this, he was first surprised, then furious, and then he became very motivated and said: "Someone wants to harm us? Then he is confused and is looking for death! If our brothers and sisters join forces, who can resist Maze City? In my opinion,
, before he can harm us, we will kill him without leaving any trace of him."
Tang Zhao said: "Senior brother is ambitious. But you should choose a good house first."
Jiang Shenyi chose a metal house next to Tang Zhao, especially for his methods. However, it is useless for the same sect to choose a house next to it in the maze city. After one night, the neighbors are as close as the end of the world.
However, the two of them decided on various strategies to help each other and act as each other's horns, intending to use them to prepare for attacks and the final day of the battle. Then, the two of them concentrated on preparing to build their own houses.
During this period, Tang Zhao thought about his guess again... Is that guess right or wrong?
Maybe he was just thinking wildly. Although the sacrificial wine had a grudge against his master, he at least didn't intend to bully the younger and lose his identity. The enemy was hidden in the mist, and Tang Zhao couldn't think of the second person.
Or is it really because he sacrificed wine to harm himself? He pretended to fall in love with his senior brother, or maybe he really fell in love with senior brother Jiang. Does that contradict his intention to harm himself? People's hearts are complicated. He might really like Jiang Shenyi.
, maybe she is willing to let him go. She has no friendship with him, so how can she know that he will not put the murderous intentions of the two of them on his head?
In this way, Jiang Shenyi did provide a useful piece of news. The Jijiu and Jiang Shenyi arrived at the Labyrinth City at the same time.
