Chapter 123 Unreasonable thoughts, brainless people
The female corpse with small feet forcibly controlled her body to prevent Jiang Wuji from doing anything to damage the red hijab.
In desperation, Jiang Wuji had no choice but to give up. The female corpse with small feet was a serious threat, and he was not something he could deal with now...
"Little Taoist Master, I think we should hurry up and go to the capital." Cao Li suddenly said.
Jiang Wuji: "Why?"
Cao Li touched the bridge of his nose and said, "Maybe Mr. Li has some bad thoughts about the little Taoist..."
"What? Unreasonable thoughts?!" the brother and sister said in unison.
"No, it's not that unreasonable thought. Oh, little Daoist, Miss Xiaoyu, I'm just a vulgar martial artist. Just understand what I mean. Don't worry about these irrelevant details..."
"Go on," Jiang Wuji said with a smile.
Cao Li curled his lips and continued: "Sir Li said that there is a master in Fengtian Division who values the little Taoist priest very much. When you get to the capital, the little Taoist priest, you can ask him to help you solve your illness."
That's what it was for.
Fengtiansi... Jiang Wuji frowned and asked.
"Cao Li, what exactly is Fengtiansi?"
"Well...how should I put it?" Cao Li pondered for a while before speaking.
"Fengtiansi does not belong to the six tribes, nor is it within the military power. Strictly speaking, Fengtiansi is directly under the royal family. The original intention of establishing Fengtiansi was to deal with the Red Lotus Sect established by the remnants of the previous dynasty."
"There are rumors that the purpose of the Red Lotus Sect's rebellion is to shake the national destiny of Dali and wait for opportunities to plunder. When Fengtiansi eradicates the monsters of the Red Lotus Sect, it must also find the scattered national destiny and snatch back the national destiny that has been taken away.
.”
"To this day, Fengtiansi is responsible for solving evil spirits and disasters in various places."
"Although Fengtiansi does not participate in government affairs, officials are extremely afraid of Fengtiansi. After all, in front of Fengtiansi, anything can be heard by heaven."
Jiang Wuji: "In other words, although Fengtiansi does not participate in government affairs, it monitors all officials and even the entire Dali."
"You can also say that." Cao Li responded.
If this is the case, then Fengtiansi's power is much greater than imagined.
The so-called non-participation in government affairs was probably just an excuse made by the emperor to the officials. Fengtiansi's position in Dali was probably more important than any other department.
"Master Dao, there is one more thing."
Cao Li added: "Fengtiansi recruits all kinds of extraordinary people from all over the world. Even the beast-maker mentioned by thousands of people is in Fengtiansi, and there are all kinds of people who fish for the Yinmen, including Taoist cultivators, Confucianists, monks, and martial artists. In short, there are also many people in Fengtiansi.
Fengtiansi is full of fish and dragons, and the water is deep and there are many turtles."
Jiang Wuji twitched the corners of his mouth and said, "In the future, in front of others, don't describe Fengtiansi as Shuishen Bastuo."
"Oh..." Cao Li nodded.
Judging from the current situation, there must be a connection between the fever and the female corpse with small feet, so finding someone to deal with the fever is likely to expose the female corpse with small feet.
If you find someone from Fengtiansi, the possibility of exposure will be doubled.
If this guess is true, then treating a fever is equivalent to dealing with the female corpse with small feet, but the female corpse with small feet is now attached to his body. He, Jiang Wuji, can choose to die together, so why can't the female corpse with small feet?
This matter still needs to be considered in the long run...
So, after pondering, Jiang Wuji said: "Let's go out first. When we get to Baiyue City, go buy some ropes and iron locks. Remember to make them stronger. If I am in a situation like today again,
Just try to tie me up."
"elder brother……"
Jiang Wuji stretched out his hand to stop what his sister wanted to say.
"This is the best way at the moment. What should I do if I find you have been killed by me after I wake up?"
Under Jiang Wuji's insistence, Xiaoyu and Cao Li could not say anything more.
This matter has come to an end, and the next step is to find a way out.
Now the idea of observing the roe owl is as if it is engraved in my mind, and I can still visualize it even without the huge mural.
I just don’t know how the horse bandit leader got the idea. According to the horse bandit leader himself, he took a pill, but after going to the tomb, except for those weird severed hands, he didn’t see any pill at all.
.
The place where the roe owl contemplation is and where it goes to its grave can be described as a "fault".
Even with the strength of the horse bandit leader, it is impossible to pass through the Broken Hand Nest, then jump off the cliff and be washed away by the underground river to the viewing area.
There should be something else on the platform where the Broken Hand Nest is located, and the black-skinned horse bandit is also very strange, looking like he was poisoned.
As I walked, a putrid smell suddenly appeared in the air.
The source of these putrid odors was a pile of dead rats and a human corpse.
The human body was unrecognizable and was probably bitten to death by rats. Judging from the size of the bones, it was probably a child in his teens, or maybe younger.
There was something strange about the dead rats around.
Except for their longer hair, these rats are about the same size as ordinary rats, but there are no wounds on these dead rats. Instead, they look like the human corpses were poisonous and poisoned these rats to death...
"Little Taoist Master, what's going on?" Cao Li asked, covering his mouth.
Jiang Wuji: "I don't know, but if you encounter it, just help burn it."
"OK."
Cao Li threw the torch in his hand, and soon the flames engulfed the bones and the dead rats around them.
When the wisps of gray smoke rose, Jiang Wuji said: "Follow the direction of the smoke, and you can go as far as you can."
No one knew how long they had been groping in this dark underground space. When the three of them were all hungry and exhausted, they finally saw a glimmer of light.
When they followed the light and came out, the three of them were surprised to find that the exit was actually an abandoned earthen tomb without a tombstone. As for where it was now, no one could tell.
When we returned to the main road along the mountain road, the sky was completely dark.
There were people staying overnight in the dilapidated temple on the roadside. Judging from their clothes, they must be from a wealthy family.
Jiang Wuji didn't want to contact these people, but now their carriage was gone, their change of clothes was gone, and he didn't even know where he was. He could only try to contact them, even asking for the direction of Baiyue City.
OK.
However, before he could get closer, an impatient voice sounded.
"Where's the beggar from? Get lost!"
Two guards holding long knives blocked the entrance to the ruined temple. Only after seeing the contemptuous and disgusted expressions on the guards did Jiang Wuji realize how embarrassed the three of them were.
With unkempt hair and dirty faces, and having been told to hide their aura before, in the eyes of outsiders they are indeed no different than beggars.
Ninth-grade martial artist... Jiang Wuji took a look at the strength of the two guards.
The two ninth-grade warriors looked at the gate, and it seemed that the people in this ruined temple had quite a lot of background.
Thinking that it is better to do less than to do more, Jiang Wuji bowed and said: "We just want to ask which direction Baiyue City is, and we hope you two can tell us."
However, one of the guards actually spit directly at Jiang Wuji after sneering!
Cao Li took a quick step and rushed to Jiang Wuji to block the filth with his own clothes.
"It's just asking for directions, there's no need to do this, right?" Cao Li said with a serious face.
"Asking for directions, you beggars are worthy of talking to us?"
"But this girl is quite pretty. How about you keep her and I tell you the way to Baiyue City?" Another guard drew out his long knife and walked over with an obscene look on his face.
Jiang Wuji never expected to meet such a brainless person. Maybe this is the rule of the world. When human life is worthless, people at the bottom will naturally lose their human rights.
"Little Taoist Master." Cao Li turned his head and asked for Jiang Wuji's opinion.
Jiang Wuji sighed helplessly and said in a deep voice.
