Mystery: From adding points to the strongest on the surface Chapter 180: Chaos in the Imperial City! King Zhenhai! The atrocities of the Blood Gu Sect!
Chapter 180: Chaos in the Imperial City! King Zhenhai! The atrocities of the Blood Gu Sect!
"Protect Your Highness!!" The moment Fan Wu came out of the sea of fire, all the palace guards pulled out the long knives from their waists, and their extremely nervous and vigilant eyes fell on Fan Wu.
A tall and burly strange man held a living person in his hands like a chicken...and walked out of the sea of fire unscathed.
Such a person appeared in the palace.
Especially, under the current situation...
It's simply not that eye-catching.
"Your Highness! Be careful, this person is..." Before a guard could finish his words, he was bluntly interrupted by the Crown Prince of Zhou.
"Put the knife away!" Prince Zhou reprimanded, "This man is a guest of my father's throne! This man is Fan Wu, Taoist Priest of Qilong Temple! If he was some kind of thief, I'm afraid he would have been killed long ago."
Yes……
Although this was the first meeting between Fan Wu and the Crown Prince of Zhou, the Crown Prince of Zhou clearly recognized Fan Wu.
He also knew that there was someone named Fan Wu in the palace.
He even knew why his son was able to return to the imperial city safely.
All because there is a Taoist priest named Fan Wu escorting him.
He also knew that his eighteenth younger brother was too naughty and mischievous, but it was the Fangwu Daoist who saved him.
Prince Zhou knew all these things.
After all, if he didn't know about these things that were on the surface, then there would be no need for him to be the prince of Zhou...
"Taoist Master Fan Wu!" Prince Zhou was very polite and did not rely on his status, but spoke in a condescending tone.
He asked: "I wonder if Master Fan Wu knows where this fire came from? And what is the situation of the person in the hands of Master Fan Wu?!"
Fan Wu threw it away casually.
The person he was holding, who looked like a dead dog, fell directly to the ground. Fan Wu let out a "tsk" and smiled with interest: "This person started this fire."
"No one in your palace found out about the blood Gu sect? And he was not the only one who set the fire, but Pindao only caught him."
What?
Arsonist?
Blood Gu Cult?
Just listening, Fan Wu continued: "These Blood Gu Sect members are also very cruel to me. They will commit suicide as soon as the fire is released. If I hadn't come over and crushed his hands and feet... I'm afraid, he would also
He committed suicide in a weird way. Like other members of the Blood Gu Cult, he was reduced to ashes, leaving no trace behind."
At the end, Fan Wu still felt a little regretful. After all, if he had reached the breathing moment a little earlier, he might have been able to gain a wave of free attribute points.
No matter how small a mosquito is, it is still meat!
When a fire suddenly breaks out in the palace, the first person to notice that something is wrong is not the maid, not the eunuch, or the guard.
But Fan Wu!
When the palace was full of sorrowful emotions, several different emotions suddenly mixed in, which were like fireflies in the dark night, particularly conspicuous.
Don't want to pay attention.
It’s all difficult!
The Crown Prince of Zhou surprisingly trusted Fan Wu. He looked angrily at the Blood Gu cultist lying dead on the ground. He could see that the Blood Gu cultivator's limbs were all very bloody.
Master Fan Wu claimed that his hands and feet were crushed, but in reality, this was actually the case!
"Who is colluding with the Blood Gu Sect?!" Prince Zhou did not ask him why he set the fire, but asked such a question with a sullen face.
"Spit!" the Blood Gu cultist lying on the ground spat: "The dog prince in the dog emperor's family, you want to kill or behead him, it's up to you!"
"You have a tough mouth." Prince Zhou suddenly calmed down: "But those who believe in Qin Tiansi will pry your mouth open."
One can imagine how much anger was brewing under his calm tone and expression.
Prince Zhou took a deep breath.
He thanked Fan Wu and said, "Thank you very much, Taoist Fan Wu, for helping me when I saw an injustice on the road. I have long heard about Taoist Fan Wu's chivalrous heart. When I saw him today, it was really like this."
Just when he was about to say something, another panicked voice came from behind.
The panicked voice only said a few words, and Prince Zhou's heart skipped a beat.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince! Your Highness the Crown Prince is not well! The Imperial Mausoleum of Emperor Daxing... There is thick smoke billowing in the direction of the Imperial Mausoleum!" The person shouting was also a eunuch, with a tone of panic and fear: "The Imperial Mausoleum of Emperor Daxing seems... It seems
There’s a fire too!!”
"What did you say?!" Prince Zhou turned around and looked at the eunuch: "Father's imperial mausoleum is on fire?!"
"It seems, it seems so..." the eunuch replied in horror: "There is thick smoke billowing in the direction of the imperial mausoleum. There is a high probability that there is a fire."
"..." Prince Zhou stopped talking.
When an emperor dies, he must go through complicated state funeral rituals and then place his body in the imperial mausoleum.
However, now there is a high possibility that the imperial mausoleum will be destroyed by unknown villains.
Doesn't that mean that his father's body has no place to go?
Prince Zhou clenched his fists tightly.
The veins on the arms are exposed.
But he also knew that anger could not solve anything. For the members of the Blood Gu Sect to be able to sneak into the palace of the Zhou Dynasty, there must be someone who is in harmony with them.
Especially since his father died today, many ministers came to the palace, and even some people who became officials came to the palace.
In such a chaotic situation, as long as someone cooperates with the Blood Gu Cult members, several people can be brought in easily.
But the specific person of the other party was not clear to Prince Zhou.
To be honest, as a royal family of a dynasty.
There are too many enemies.
Within a short period of time, there is basically nothing that can be found, unless the other party takes the initiative to reveal the truth.
However, can those who dare to set fire to the palace at such a time, or even dare to destroy the imperial mausoleum, reveal their flaws so easily?
The prince of Zhou fell into silence.
"Perhaps there is something that can help us know who is cooperating with that Blood Gu Sect." At this moment, Fan Wu's voice rang out, breaking the silence.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Prince Zhou was stunned: "Oh? Master Fan Wu, what's your trick?"
After a while.
They were no longer near the sea of fire, but came to another part of the palace. This place was originally built by the old emperor for his concubines...
But due to the arrival of Fan Wu and others, the old emperor regarded this place as a place to receive Fan Wu and others.
at this time.
This palace was already crowded with people, so many that Yun Jiuqing felt a little nervous.
After all, too many things happened in the palace in just one or two days.
Even if her mind was not very bright, she could still feel the surging undercurrent. She could also smell the thick chilling atmosphere in the air of the palace.
This feeling is very depressing.
But among so many people present, no one paid attention to Yun Jiuqing.
The Crown Prince of Zhou and all the guards around him all focused their attention on a large red coffin.
The method Fan Wu said...
Naturally it’s Tianji Coffin!
If you don't make good use of a coffin like this, wouldn't it be in vain?
"Tianji Coffin..." Prince Zhou said: "I have heard of it. It is said to be the artifact of Nanjun Qintiansi Zhensi. I never thought that it would follow Taoist Fan Wu and come to the imperial city."
now.
The body of Tianji Coffin is filled with cold Yin Qi. The pervasive Yin Qi makes many palace guards feel as if they have fallen into an ice cellar. They are all extremely nervous and are prepared to escort them at any time.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince’s preparations to leave this place.
Although His Royal Highness is also a cultivator and may not need their escort, they feel that they can still be used as a human shield to help His Highness and block the attacks of strange creatures.
bass!
Suddenly, a soft sound was heard, and a small drawer popped out of the Tianji coffin. In the small hooves, lying quietly, was a very old-looking parchment roll.
"Your Highness, I have humbled myself..." A guard wanted to take the initiative and bring over this strange parchment scroll.
But he was interrupted by Prince Zhou: "No need, just come alone."
The prince of Zhou Dynasty was not shy about the Tianji coffin in front of him.
He directly reached out and picked up the parchment scroll on the small drawer of Tianji coffin.
It's very cold to the bone.
But he didn't care.
"Huh?" Prince Zhou noticed that there was only one name written on the parchment in his hand. It was a name that was very familiar to him, and his pupils could not help but shrink a bit.
"How could this be?" Prince Zhou was shocked: "How could it be him?!"
"Mu Xiu?" Fan Wu raised his eyebrows: "If I remember correctly, your family's surname... is Mu, right?"
The royal family of the Zhou Dynasty was indeed named Mu.
Everyone in the world knows this.
Fan Wu said: "Could it be another unfilial son of yours?"
A group of guards: "..."
The guards next to the Crown Prince of Zhou looked at Fan Wu with shocked eyes. They did not expect that Fan Wu in front of them would actually say such a thing in front of His Highness the Crown Prince.
And every word this person said did not contain any honorifics, as if... he was putting himself in an equal position to His Royal Highness.
How brave!
"He is not Gu's son." The face of the Prince of Zhou was full of solemn expression: "He is Gu's uncle! He is the younger brother of his father and the King of Zhenbei of the Zhou Dynasty!"
Prince Zhou used his palms slightly to clench the sheepskin roll into a ball, gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect that he wouldn't give up!"
"Oh?" Fan Wu was a little curious.
The Prince of Zhou explained: "My father also experienced ups and downs when he became the Emperor of Zhou. As soon as he ascended the throne, he encountered rebellion from the vassal king..."
"The reason was that one of my father's younger brothers was not convinced that my father ascended the throne of this great treasure. This was because my father did not ascend the throne as a prince at that time. The prince at that time passed away due to illness, and the orphaned grandfather also died.
The second prince has not been established for a long time."
"After the death of my grandfather, the second prince still has not been established. The ministers in the court can only recommend one of the princes, who is most suitable to ascend the throne, to ascend the throne."
"This man is Gu's father!!"
Having said this, the Prince of Zhou paused for a moment, and then continued: "Ascending the throne as an emperor without being a prince will naturally arouse the dissatisfaction of other princes. But most people did not say anything more, because it was a foregone conclusion.
It’s useless to say that.”
"It just so happened that there was only one prince, Gu's uncle, Prince Zhenhai, and he actually started a rebellion! He threatened that before his death, the emperor said that he was the one who should ascend the throne, not Gu's father."
"A lot of people actually believed such ridiculous words back then, so he raised an army of 100,000 people."
"Of course, he lost."
The Prince of Zhou took a deep breath: "He was completely defeated, but my father did not kill him. I also asked my father why he didn't kill him at that time. My father said that King Zhenhai was his younger brother. My father only told him
I explained such a sentence and didn’t say any more to me.”
"Later, King Zhenhai was not removed from the vassal status, but his legs were crippled by his father as punishment. He was sent to Dongjun, so that King Zhenhai could live in Dongjun and be a rich man with peace of mind."
"For two or three hundred years, King Zhenhai has not done anything rebellious, nor has he ever mentioned what happened back then."
"I thought that his heart for the throne was completely dead."
"The result was unexpected..."
Prince Zhou couldn't help but gnashed his teeth: "He is so old, but he still has evil intentions! He even... colluded with the Blood Gu Sect, this treasonous anti-thief force!"
have to!
Daqing was a bad result caused by the old emperor's failure to be ruthless, and now this bad result has begun to harm his son.
Fan Wu felt that this family was a bit strange. Maybe the royal family of a country was like this, right?
"So...this is the cause planted by your father." Fan Wu said.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Uh..." Prince Zhou didn't know how to answer this sentence.
Because he felt that Taoist Fan Wu was not wrong.
However, after all, it was his father's decision. Prince Zhou felt that his father must have had ulterior motives for doing this.
After all, my father did not ascend the throne as a prince, and this matter was indeed criticized by many people at the time.
Once the father is accused of killing his younger brother again.
Although my father had done nothing wrong, there would definitely be some gossipy officials who would continue to bother him with this matter.
wrong!
Why did the topic get changed here?
Prince Zhou put aside all the divergent thoughts in his mind, and his expression was extremely solemn: "If Tianji Coffin is right, and it is really Gu's uncle who did it, then this trouble will be worse than Gu expected.
, and even bigger!”
A King Pan who once rebelled, a vassal king who once had the ambition to become emperor, a vassal king who endured his ambition for two or three hundred years.
It suddenly broke out on this day.
It must be extremely difficult!
"Well..." At this moment, Xing Fengzi's voice rang out: "I would like to ask, Your Highness, the King of Zhenhai you mentioned, should he always be in Dongjun?"
Xing Fengzi was a little confused: "It has only been half a day since the death of Emperor Daxing. How did he know what happened in the palace?"
Prince Zhou was stunned.
Because he found that the question raised by Xing Fengzi was indeed worthy of further study.
It would probably be very fast for the news to spread from the palace to the imperial city, but if it wanted to spread from the imperial city to a place as far away as Dongjun, it would take less than ten days and a half, so don't even think about it.
If the person delivering the message encounters any danger along the way, it may not be possible to deliver the message for a month.
"Unless the King of Zhenhai you are talking about has already known that Emperor Daxing's dragon body is getting worse and worse, he has already begun to conspire against him. He has colluded with the Blood Gu Sect and ordered people to hide in the imperial city and even hide behind the palace.
middle."
Xing Fengzi's speculation mentioned "Zaozao" a lot, and these two words seemed particularly frightening to the ears of the Prince of Zhou and others.
Xing Fengzi continued: "When the time comes, even if the news has not yet been delivered to Dongjun, the news has spread in the palace and the imperial city... Then the Zhenhai King has made a series of preparations in advance and can respond instantly
let's move."
"Ahem!" Noticing that many eyes were focused on him, Xing Fengzi's tone of voice became a little softer.
After all, this is just a speculation on his part, a conspiracy theory without any basis.
"I'm just guessing."
He added weakly.
"What this little Taoist priest said makes sense." However, Prince Zhou fully agreed with his speculation: "Because only in this way can we explain why the emperor's uncle reacted so quickly."
"The turmoil in the imperial palace and the imperial mausoleum may be just the beginning." Prince Zhou felt a great pressure on his heart. He continued: "The first problem my father encountered when he ascended the throne was that he was alone.
That imperial uncle."
"Gu is about to inherit the throne of his father. The first problem he encounters is that he is still Gu's imperial uncle. I don't know if this is the fate of my Mu family?"
He lost his voice and said bitterly: "Once King Zhenhai plans to rebel again, the people of the Zhou Dynasty will be in dire straits again after many years."
Before a prince ascends the throne, the last thing he wants to see is this kind of thing happening.
But there is no way.
He has no control over this kind of thing.
There is no way to stop it in advance.
He looked at the Tianji coffin, facing this strange big red coffin, and asked: "I think there must be spies and even cronies of King Zhenhai in the court, or even in the palace. Do you know that there are more of them?"
people?"
bass!
A small drawer popped out of the Tianji coffin, and there was also a parchment roll on it, but this time the parchment roll was spread out.
These words are written on the parchment and can be seen by everyone.
--have no idea!
"……well!"
Prince Zhou didn't think this was strange. He sighed slightly and shook his head helplessly: "Sure enough, the Tianji Coffin has its limits. If it can understand everything in the world without any consumption, then it would be too outrageous."
He could see that Tianji Coffin had reached a limit.
At least for now, not a drop can be squeezed out of Tianji Coffin.
…
The old emperor died.
Palace fire.
Imperial Tomb Fire.
These three things happened on the same day, leaving everyone in the imperial city dumbfounded. Even some ordinary people could sense that there was a feeling that a storm was about to come.
However, the Prince of Zhou did not let anyone spread the news about the Zhenhai King who was suspected of plotting rebellion again.
Because once this kind of thing spreads, the panic caused is no joke.
The people of the imperial city only knew that His Majesty was gone, that the palace was on fire, and that the imperial mausoleum was on fire.
at this time.
It's already the next day.
All the temples and Taoist temples in the imperial city rang the melodious bells. One after another, the melodious bells sounded, with a sense of sadness, from yesterday until early this morning.
Accompanied by the faint ringing of the bell, a commoner in the imperial city whispered to a person next to him: "Isn't your brother working as an errand in the palace? Have you heard any news about the palace?"
"
The man next to him rolled his eyes and complained: "I can't even see my brother's face anymore. How could my brother come out when such a big thing happened?"
"I heard that there was a fire in the palace yesterday, and the flames were soaring into the sky! You said that the fire was on the same day that His Majesty died. Is God foretelling something?"
"Who knows! I just hope there won't be any big trouble in the imperial city."
"Your Majesty, it can be considered that he has passed away. It is said that he has lived for many hundreds of years. This is a person who practices Taoism. Like us, we may only live forty or fifty years old, and then we will be gone."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "I heard that not only the palace was on fire, but even the imperial mausoleum built by His Majesty during his lifetime was on fire! Unfortunately, it was heavily guarded and no one could go there to see it.
one look."
"Both places are on fire. That's really unusual. Do you think it could be..."
"Shh! You don't want to die!"
"..."
In the imperial city, everyone from the dignitaries to the common people were discussing these matters.
They are all thinking about what kind of impact the occurrence of these things will have on their Zhou Dynasty? What kind of impact will it have on these people?
Compared with ordinary people, some aristocratic families and dignitaries in the imperial city have more detailed information.
After all, these aristocratic families have either been operating in the imperial city for hundreds of years or thousands of years.
Some aristocratic families are even more outrageous. They even existed in the imperial city during the previous dynasty.
They have such deep roots in the imperial city and want to know some more detailed information...
It's still very easy.
"The fire in the palace was set by humans." A white-haired old man was playing with a string of Buddhist beads. He sat on a large black solid wood chair, closed his eyes and said, "I heard that there is
Several members of the Blood Gu Sect took the opportunity to sneak into the palace."
In front of the old man, there was a middle-aged man sitting. After taking a sip of tea, the middle-aged man frowned and said: "Even if the emperor dies and the palace is in chaos, it will be difficult for people from the Blood Gu Sect to sneak in, right?
"
"Our family has received some news..." A person next to him suddenly said.
Notice that everyone is focusing their eyes on you.
The man continued: "I heard that there are people who are in harmony with the followers of the Blood Gu Sect. After the followers of the Blood Gu Sect were put into the palace, they set the fire on and then all committed suicide using a secret technique. There were almost no survivors.
Leave no trace."
"However, there is always a gap in the hundred secrets. There was a believer of the Blood Gu Sect who was captured alive before he could use the secret technique to commit suicide. Now, he should be tortured by Qin Tiansi."
"Cough! Cough cough!" Among these people, a rather thin man suddenly coughed several times.
He waved his hands repeatedly: "Nothing, nothing... I'm just a little shocked that the people from the Blood Gu Sect were able to sneak into the palace."
"Yes!" The old man with his eyes closed slowly opened them: "And the two fires in the palace and the imperial mausoleum reminded me of the time when His Majesty first ascended the throne."
After the white-haired old man said these words, everyone present fell silent.
Among them, there are only two or three people who have experienced what happened back then.
Even if others have never experienced it, they heard it mentioned by their elders in the family when they were young.
It will be a period of chaos that will sweep through the entire dynasty, and it may not be able to calm down within ten or eight years. And it will not only be ordinary people who will suffer, but even some aristocratic families in the dynasty may be implicated.
"It shouldn't be the case..." Someone said uncertainly: "It was because King Zhenhai was very ambitious back then, but now, who else would have such great ambitions like King Zhenhai back then?"
"I think it's probably a remnant of the previous dynasty! It has been lingering for a thousand years, just waiting for this day to come."
"It makes sense! It makes sense!"
"..."
These big figures in the imperial city were talking about such a thing. In their hearts, they were thinking about how their respective families would cope with this war if something similar to that happened really happened.
Be wise and wise in protecting yourself.
Or even, how to take risks in the coming chaos, seek wealth and wealth in the midst of danger, gain a lot of benefits, and strive for the fortunes of their respective families for hundreds of years.
…
at the same time.
Imperial City.
A quiet place.
All the hustle and bustle outside seems to have no effect on what's going on here.
The sound of the piano echoed continuously.
After the song falls.
An old palm gently stroked the strings, feeling the lingering sound. After a long time, he murmured: "The piano is indeed a good piano, but I always feel that something is missing. In this place, after all, playing the piano is not a good thing."
It brings out such an artistic conception.”
The speaker was an old woman who looked very old. Maybe she looked a little younger than the old emperor.
"If the sound of the piano sounded in the palace, it might have a different meaning." She slowly turned her head and looked at the man in black robes who was kneeling on one knee beside her.
The old woman said expressionlessly: "Why did this mistake happen?"
"Report to the elder!" The man in black robe responded hurriedly: "Through the palace's spy, we learned that it was a Taoist priest named Fan Wu who suddenly took action and captured one of our people alive."
"Fan Wu... Taoist?" The old woman frowned: "Didn't I say that the fire should avoid the ascetics in the palace?"
The man in black robe lowered his head and responded: "I don't know how I was able to discover them. Elder, now we have a believer who is accepting Qintiansi in the prison of Qintiansi."
interrogation."
"Once that guy can't hold back and reveals information about us to Qin Tiansi, then this place will be very dangerous!"
"Sir Elder, if we don't take the opportunity to leave the imperial city, we may not be able to leave."
The old woman shook her head: "Opportunities often coexist with dangers. What can we do to overthrow this dynasty after leaving the imperial city? Our Blood Gu Sect and the Zhenhai King's people cooperated internally and externally, turning the imperial palace upside down and the imperial city into chaos.
The purpose of Fengyu is not just to set off two fires, as simple as that."
"This time, I have brought nine Gu Gods, but they are still high-quality Gu Gods. The person who harbors the Gu Gods has long been ambushing the palace. Now that the Dog Emperor is dead, the entire Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed.
Gathered in the Imperial Palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Prince, prince, vassal king, minister, county king, Qin Tiansi... If you can get all these people in one nest, you don't even need one nest."
Duan, we only need to kill 30% of them, and the world will be in chaos."
"After King Zhenhai gets the news, he will make a comeback with the support of our Blood Gu Sect. There will be a war sweeping the entire dynasty within the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"This kind of imperial power struggle between ordinary people and ordinary people, no matter the gods in the sky or the underworld gods, are not qualified to intervene in it."
"After all, they also have to abide by heaven's rules."
The man in black robe was secretly frightened when he heard that, nine Gu Gods are really something. You must know that the manpower and material resources required to raise a Gu God are countless, and there is also the risk of failure.
And these nine Gu gods... hiss! How many living people must be sacrificed? Tens of thousands? Or even more?
but……
If the lives of tens of thousands of non-bloodgu sect members were exchanged for endless turmoil in a dynasty, it would be worth it.
Let alone tens of thousands of living lives, even hundreds of thousands or millions are worth it.
Anyway, those who died were not members of their Blood Gu Sect.
They're just a bunch of two-legged sheep!
"Sir Elder, I don't quite understand my humble position... Since the nine Gu Gods have already been ordered to take them and hide them in the palace, why do we need to wait until today to take action? If the dog emperor had been dealt with earlier,
Wouldn’t that be faster?”
The man in black robe was a little puzzled.
"That dog emperor is not as fragile as you think!" The old woman sneered: "Nine Gu gods can't defeat him! If he doesn't die, we and King Zhenhai will have no chance. But it's different now, he
If you die, everything will be easier."
"Can't even defeat the nine Gu Gods?" The man in black robe was dumbfounded and said in shock: "Even if he is an immortal god, it will be difficult for him to fight against the combined power of the nine Gu Gods, right?"
"Ha!" the old woman said: "How can ordinary low-level immortals compare to that dog emperor? At his peak, he once used his luck to control the court and killed a troublesome demon python with one sword."
"There have been several emperors in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but the most powerful ones are him and the emperor who founded the dynasty. And who is stronger or weaker between the two of them? Well... that's not sure!"
The man in black robe asked quietly: "Then... when will the man holding the nine Gu Gods prepare to take action? It is said that there are still many Taoist masters in the palace. If he takes action at the moment when the palace is most heavily guarded, will those people be killed?
Are the masters of Taoism trying to stop you?"
The old woman said: "So this is the reason why we stay in the imperial city. Instruct the people below to stop hiding and move everyone."
She lightly strummed the strings, listening to the long sound the strings made, and said expressionlessly: "Let the imperial city be in chaos."
"Yes! Lord Elder!!"
…
When the night gradually falls.
Chaos started again.
And this time, the target is not the heavily guarded palace, nor the imperial mausoleum that has been guarded by heavy troops, but various places within the imperial city! Especially places with many dense crowds.
The Blood Gu Cult no longer targets high-ranking officials, but ordinary people in the imperial city!
There are hundreds of Blood Gu sect members hiding in the imperial city. Among these hundreds of people, there must be at least hundreds of cultivators.
It is equivalent to a monk leading a few Blood Gu cult members to cause chaos in various parts of the imperial city.
Phew!!
A Blood Gu cultist pierced the belly of a pot-bellied merchant with a knife. Under the horrified expression on the other person's face, he laughed ferociously and said: "If I'm to blame, it's your old emperor who died too early.
Gave us a chance.”
"Don't worry, this knife is poisoned. As long as it touches you, you will die. The advantage is that the poisoned knife will not cause you any pain."
The Blood Gu Cultist pulled out the knife, and blood splashed all over him.
The scene of killing people in the street was seen by many people nearby.
Suddenly!
Caused a big commotion.
"Kill! Kill!" Someone couldn't help but exclaimed: "Kill, kill! There are gangsters who are killing people in the imperial city! Hurry! Go and report to the official! Go and report to the official!!"
However... this common man didn't even have time to take a few steps.
Suddenly, an iron hook hooked his lute bone.
A huge force directly knocked this common man to the ground.
Then a short knife was stabbed at him.
Another person died!
A Blood Gu cultist holding an iron hook in one hand and a short knife in the other licked a trace of blood on his lips, and his whole body became even more excited than before: "The Gu worms in my body seem to be very...
Love the taste.”
"Don't waste time." Next to him, a tall Blood Gu cultivator gently raised his arm.
One by one, very tiny Gu insects flew out from his palm, and then landed on several panicked people of the Imperial City.
When those few people in the imperial city saw someone daring to kill someone in the street, they immediately wanted to turn around and run away.
Before they even had time to take a step or two, they fell to the ground as if all their strength had been drained out of them.
The body lying on the ground was twitching and shaking slightly.
The Gu insect directly bit their skin, injected some weird venom, and got in through the wound.
They hadn't twitched for long, and they slowly got up one by one like zombies.
"Me! I can't control my body!" A citizen of the Imperial City climbed up from the ground, his movements were extremely stiff, and he screamed in horror: "I don't want to move! My body, my body... it
It moved by itself, I couldn’t control it at all!”
The same was true for the other people who had been infected by the poisonous insects. They all acted extremely stiffly.
It's like a puppet on strings.
But compared to puppets, they still have independent consciousness.
A Blood Gu Cultist threw down a package in his arms. After the package was unfolded, a number of sharp weapons were revealed inside, which turned out to be bright silver one-handed short knives!
"Go!" The monk from the Blood Gu Cult who controlled the Gu worms grinned: "Pick up the knife and kill people when you see them!"
The few people controlled by the Gu worm could not control their bodies at all. They tremblingly picked up the knives on the ground, and then killed them in all directions.
They stiffly raised the daggers in their hands and slashed at a group of innocent people.
"Run quickly! Stay away from me. I don't want to kill you. I can't control it!"
"Dad! Dad, what's wrong with you, Dad!!"
"Ghost! There must be a ghost at work in the dark! They are all possessed by ghosts, don't get close to them! Once you get close to them, they will kill you!"
"Ah! My hand, madam, why do you want to chop me with a knife?"
"I, I don't want to either!"
"..."
The panic was spreading at a rapid speed. Under the night, the Imperial City of Great Zhou was filled with blood and killings. Hundreds of Blood Gu cult members took action at once, turning most of the imperial city upside down in an instant.
.
After all, most of the people in the Imperial City are ordinary people. Compared with the huge number of ordinary people, the number of monks in the Imperial City is not that special.
Moreover, the Blood Gu Sect is not a fool. It is naturally impossible for them to cause trouble near some Taoist temples or temples.
The places where chaos occurred were all far away from Taoist temples, temples, yamen, and aristocratic families.
The Blood Gu Cult is targeting ordinary people!
What you pinch is the softest persimmon!
The Qintiansi in the imperial city responded quickly, and each member of the Qintiansi immediately set out to suppress the chaos in the imperial city and arrest all the perpetrators.
"Your Majesty, Deputy Commander, it is preliminary confirmation that the people who caused such chaos are a group of ascetics who use witchcraft and poison." A member of Qintiansi, holding a dead poisonous insect in his hand, asked Qintiansi
The deputy commander appears.
The deputy commander of Qin Tiansi looked gloomy: "Heart Controlling Puppet Gu... Blood Gu Cult!!!"
He recognized what kind of Gu insect it was at a glance.
"Damn it! When did these rats in the sewer sneak into the imperial city? And there are so many of them." The deputy commander of Qin Tiansi said with anger in his voice. He felt that there were only one or two defenders on the walls of the imperial city.
They are all moths that eat dry food.
"They chose to cause trouble at this time. They must have ulterior motives. Coupled with the two fires yesterday..." Deputy Commander Qin Tiansi squinted his eyes: "But if we ignore them, they will be in the imperial palace."
The city continues to cause carnage."
"The art of witchcraft and poison is extremely weird. Those ordinary soldiers in the army are very good at killing people, but they have nothing to do with killing poisonous insects."
"This is like a conspiracy to attract our Imperial City Qin Tiansi to put all our energy into the Blood Gu Sect."
Precisely because this is a conspiracy.
Even if he knew there was something fishy about it, he still had to grit his teeth and step into it.
The deputy commander of Qin Tiansi immediately ordered: "Everyone is dispatched to wipe out the Blood Gu cultists as quickly as possible! There is no need to leave any survivors alive. In special moments, heavy rituals should be used! If you see one, kill one!"
"Yes! Sir!!"
The battle between the Blood Gu Sect and the Imperial City Qin Tiansi soon took place in the streets and alleys of the Imperial City.
There were sounds of fierce fighting all over the imperial city, and there were even followers of the Blood Gu Sect setting fires everywhere in the imperial city.
For fear of not causing chaos!
In addition, they were dispersed very widely and the witchcraft they used was also very strange, so the court had to send more manpower.
It can be said that the entire Imperial City of Zhou Dynasty was reduced to chaos in just a few days!
…
A palace, a palace somewhere.
Fan Wu was holding the Northern Black Chigon Horned Demon-Breaking Heroic Sword, leaning against a big red pillar with his eyes closed and concentrating. The constant noise in his ears did not affect him.
