The water surface is sparkling, like a general's crimson cloak. From time to time, fish jump out of the water among the reeds.
In Jiangnan Road, this is a rare peaceful place. No matter what your previous status was, as long as you join Li Jun's water village, you will be protected.
Some people who were unwilling to join Fang La and join the Ming Cult chose to join Li Jun. In contrast, few people took the initiative to join Yue Fei, who occupied the big city.
This is not because of the corruption of discipline in the Yue family's army, but because Zhao Ji and Cai Jing joined forces to destroy the prestige of the Song Dynasty.
The common people would rather trust the water bandits and Cao Mang than trust the imperial court, and even avoid it.
On the soft mud by the river, there is a sticky wave that has just receded.
Li Yu was standing, playing with the keys in his hand, with a worried look on his face. His feet were on the ground, but his shoes were not wet.
Li Jun walked over slowly with a few confidants. Seeing Li Yu's appearance, he sighed and stepped forward and said: "Headmaster, I asked my subordinates to inquire. There is no news about Shi Qian. Zhu Wu's
There are no edges."
Li Yu had known this result for a long time. He turned around, patted Li Jun on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Shi Qian has always been smart. I believe he will be fine."
He is not comforting Li Jun, but he really thinks so, because there are only two possibilities for Shi Qian at the moment.
First, he was captured by the Mingjiao. The key that he had worked hard and risked his life to steal must be what the Mingjiao wanted to recover. In this way, as long as the key is in his hands, Shi Qian will not die.
At most, they were tortured and interrogated.
Secondly, he escaped. Once Shi Qian escaped and escaped the pursuit of the Ming Cult, he would definitely find a way to contact him. Now he has not contacted him, or he was seriously injured.
Hide somewhere to recuperate; otherwise, people from the Tang Dynasty will take you away, which will be inconvenient for the time being.
"Now I don't have a clue. If I want to save Shi Qian, I must figure out what this key does. After all, this is the only clue."
Li Jun was an old man from a serious family. He came closer and whispered: "Why not ask Zuo Ci."
Zuo Ci was well-informed, and Li Yu also had this idea.
It's a pity that this old guy has gone somewhere. He was very excited when he left. It seemed that he was eyeing some kind of treasure hiding place, and he was probably digging graves and robbing graves.
"Where is the old thing?"
Li Jun said: "Aren't they in the door?"
Li Yu shook his head and said: "I left a long time ago. After dividing the ghost market, I was afraid that I would get a piece of the pie and escape faster than anyone else."
"Is there any way to lure them out?"
Li Yu rolled his eyes and suddenly had an idea. He smiled and said, "I know."
After nightfall, Li Yu sat cross-legged on the water, surrounded by silence.
He turned his palm and a white light flashed, and he took out a clay figurine from the Fengyue Treasure Book. This clay figurine had a mean expression and was in need of beating. It was the one given to Li Yu by Zuo Ci.
Li Yu said to the clay figurine: "I have the key to a treasure house here. Are you interested, senior?"
The clay figurine did not move. It would only answer questions about alchemy, but Li Yu knew that it had some connection with Zuo Ci.
Li Yu only now figured out why Zuo Ci gave him a clay figurine in the first place. He wanted to know where he was at all times, which was equivalent to placing a locator around him.
Because he needed to help Diao Chan detoxify him from the cold poison, and it would be unbearable even for a moment when that thing attacks.
Now, I have helped Diao Chan pour antidote in three parts, and follow up with doctors from time to time to ensure that the root cause of the problem is solved.
A moment later, in front of Li Yu, a hole was torn open, and a man and a ghost emerged.
Zuo Ci looked very embarrassed, covered in mud and dirt, and a large section of his beard had been shaved off, with a piece missing in the middle. Zuo Ci, who was originally somewhat celestial, looked very funny.
"What treasure house?"
Li Yu took the key in his hand and shook it slightly.
After Zuo Ci looked at it, his expression changed drastically and he said, "Farewell."
As soon as he finished speaking, he was about to get back out of the hole, but Li Yu grabbed one of his feet and pulled him back.
"Senior, it's not a good habit to leave without saying goodbye."
Zuo Ci said angrily: "Don't harm others. Although we are greedy, we still have brains and know what we should not touch."
Li Yuqi asked: "In the eyes of seniors, is there anything else that cannot be touched?"
Zuo Ci glanced at the key in his hand and said, "Take this, for example."
"What's wrong with this?"
Zuo Ci was a little surprised and said, "You really don't know what this thing is, do you? By the way, I haven't asked you where you got it from?"
"My apprentice stole it."
Zuo Ci nodded and said: "So, it was stolen from Qingxi Cave, right?"
"How did senior know?"
Zuo Ci smiled and said, "Do you know where Fang La's lair used to be?"
"have no idea"
"Qingxi Cave is the dojo of Jiutian Xuannv. Jiutian Xuannv cultivates the nine-turn magical skill. If she is reincarnated nine times and realizes the Tao, she can achieve the Tao forever. From then on, she becomes a saint and is comparable to the Hongmeng Holy Body. In her ninth life
, named Chen Shuozhen, also known as the Holy Mother of the Red Sky, was founded in Qingxi County, established the Fire Phoenix Society, and mastered Qimen Dunjia, the emperor's art in the Liujia area."
Li Yu was frightened when he heard this. It turned out that Chen Shuozhen still had such a past. He asked: "What then?"
"In this life, the Nine Heavens Xuannv somehow came up with the idea that she wanted to be the emperor of the human race. So she proclaimed herself emperor in Qingxi County and called herself Emperor Wenjia. At that time, the Han Dynasty sent Li Yuan to destroy her, and the two armies were in a stalemate.
On this occasion, when the two armies were in a stalemate, a meteor suddenly fell in Chen Shuozhen's camp, and the entire Qingxi County was injured by fire and impact."
"Since then, Chen Shuozhen has disappeared without a trace, and all her men have been killed. Qingxi County, which was originally a small town in the plains, was hit by a meteorite, and the sky collapsed and the earth shattered, turning into a mountain range stretching for thousands of miles."
"Back then, Chen Shuozhen left two mysterious places, 'Tianziji' and 'Wanshi Tower' in Qingxi County. It is said that after entering, you can get her mantle. This thing in your hand is to open the 'Tianziji',"
The key to the Wanshi Tower."
Li Yu said happily: "Is there such a good thing?"
"Good thing?"
Zuo Ci sneered: "I don't know which bastard threw this key back then, which led countless people to take risks. As a result, tens of thousands of monks died in just ten years. No one has ever been able to find out from inside.
Those who came out alive include many immortals who have been famous for a long time."
Li Yu swallowed and said, "Not one?"
Zuo Ci shook his head and said, "Maybe there is one."
"Fang La?"
"That's right, from then on, he established the Ming Cult. Chen Shuozhen claimed to be the 'Mother of the Red Sky' and Fang La claimed to be the 'Reincarnated Ming King'. No matter how you look at it, they are all the same."
