With a muffled sound, Mu Daochengdan was shocked, and he escaped into the sky in an instant. When he took five steps back and stood still, his throat felt hot and blood blurted out.
After entering the realm of Nascent Soul and Golden Body, if the physical Qi is less than 30%, the Dan Shen and Yuan Shen will be unable to leave the body and attack the enemy. Mu Daocheng saw that Zhiku did not use his Yuan Shen to meet his own attack, so he
Guessing that he was already like me, with less than 30% of his cultivation and Qi, he calmed down, took a deep breath, shouted, stepped forward, and struck Zhiku with one palm.
As Mu Daocheng expected, Zhiku's current cultivation Qi machine was only 20%. When he was trapped by the 'Moon-covering and broken shadow' Qi machine, he knew something was wrong. When he saw Mu Daocheng and his two men beside them,
Standing just a few feet away from the edge of the cliff, the thought of fighting to the death came into my mind.
During the ventilation, the gravitational force shook the trapped Qi cage, causing his body to turn to the right. Mu Daocheng wanted to trap Zhiku at the center of the Qi cage, so he had to move with his body and turn to his back.
The orientation of the cliff edge.
At that time, Zhiku used the spiritual power covered by the "Leaking Soul" magical power to sneak out from the gap half a foot high on the ground and hit Mu Daocheng's head with lightning speed.
When Mu Daocheng took back his alchemy spirit to fight back, Mingwu's Yuanshen also tried to take back the Yuanshen that besieged Zhiku. As soon as the power of their spiritual consciousness was withdrawn, the Qi prison suddenly loosened, and it was for Zhiku that
Take the opportunity to break it open.
When Zhiku kicked off the cliff with his feet to use his strength to attack, Mingwu heard that the punch had a calamity force. He was afraid that the sound of "thunder sound" would disturb Mu Daocheng in front of him, so in desperation, he used Juyin to create a powerful punch.
The line was used, but because of the obstruction of Mu Daocheng's figure, the calamity power was not completely broken, but 10% of the calamity power broke into Mu Daocheng's mind.
Zhiku was trapped and his true energy was severely damaged. Even if he was not injured, he would still be defeated by the combined strength of Mu Daocheng and Mu Daocheng. However, he used the power of a kick to attack and was on par with the two of them.
It was a pity that Mu Dao was affected by the calamity force. After the fists and palms collided, his energy suddenly decreased, but he was injured by the remaining strength of Zhiku's fist, and his body was shaken and retreated.
But Mingwu knew that there was a cliff five feet behind him, so he took half a step back with his right foot, forced himself to stay still, and pushed Mu Daocheng's body, which could not hold back, to the left. But at that time, he settled down.
The body shape of Zhiku, with lightning and flint, retracted the spirit that was fighting in mid-air, and combined his physical body and energy to strike Mingwu with all his strength. Mingwu couldn't avoid it, but he blocked it with his fist.
He was knocked off the cliff by Zhiku Fist.
Zhi Ku's cultivation level is much higher than Mu Daocheng's. Although his internal injuries were more severe than Mu Daocheng's, he still had the same strength. However, when he saw Mu Daocheng bullying him and attacking, he also punched to meet him. Two fists.
The palms collided with each other, and with a muffled sound, Mu Daocheng took two steps back, paused, and then yelled again, but then both palms came out and struck Zhiku directly in the chest.
But when Zhiku punched Mu Daocheng's palm, Mu Daocheng's qi machine increased, but it had 70% of the power of his ordinary cultivation level. Zhiku's heart was shocked, and his body was hit by a huge force.
After the impact, he flew backwards, vomiting blood and suddenly fell into the road on the edge of the cliff.
It turned out that Mu Daocheng broke open his alchemy and turned it into a physical body, severely injuring Zhiku with one blow. He broke open the alchemy and fought to the death not out of emotion, but because he knew that Zhiku's internal injuries were due to the competition.
The counter-shock of the Qi machine is not a fatal injury, but it can recover to 80 to 90% of its strength after a month of retreat. At that time, it will be possible to use the magical power of "Leakage" to cover up the manifested dragon veins.
The desperate fight was to injure Zhiku so hard that he would be unable to cover up the dragon vein before Chu Nanfeng drove him back. Now Mu Daocheng, who saw Zhiku collapsed with serious injuries and blood pouring from the corner of his mouth, laughed loudly and said,
He knelt on his knees, leaned forward, and suddenly passed out.
After waiting for half an hour, Zhiguang came from the path on the edge of the peak cliff. He saw Zhiku sitting cross-legged and his breathing was erratic. He was shocked and turned pale. He hurriedly knelt down and raised his palms to Zhiku.
Carrying it on his back, he input his true energy to heal his injuries.
After a cup of tea, Zhiku slowly opened his eyes, looked at Mu Daocheng not far away, and said: "Junior brother, let's take a look at Leng Dao's life and death..."
After hearing the words and deeds, Zhiguang knelt down next to Mu Daocheng, felt his pulse, and looked at Zhiku, "There is still some breath left. If we don't rescue him immediately, we won't survive for three hours."
"Crime, sin, if Leng Dao wanted to escape, I couldn't stop him. I should have guessed that he would risk his life, but he was careless..."
"What about Mingwu?"
"Although Ming Wu was shot down the cliff for me, I think he still had 20 to 30% of his vitality at that time, and because he fell into the Housi River, I might have had a chance to survive with him..."
"He and Leng Dao were able to find this place. It is thought that the entrance to the Dragon Veins of Tianwang Peak has been discovered by them. If he is not dead, they will be in great trouble..."
Zhiku stood up and nodded, "Take Leng Dao back to the cave."
After arriving in the cave where the Shuanglong Pond was located, Zhi walked to the edge of the Shuanglong Pond and saw the cloud-like mist slowly rising from the bottom of the pond. His pale face was filled with joy and he looked at Zhiguang, "Junior brother, go and bring the little layman here..."
"
Zhiguang nodded, placed the dying Mu Daocheng on the ground, walked towards the northeast corner of the cave, moved a stone about three feet square, and jumped down. It turned out that the cave leading to the dragon vein of Tianwang Peak was
The tunnel is under this stone. On that day, Zhao Du and Zhao Kuangyi, mother and son, came to this cave, but they did not know that there was a passage under this stone that could lead to the Dragon Vein Spirit Cave.
After half a stick of incense, Luo Xiaoyao came to see Zhiguang, who was in a state of drowsiness. After putting Luo Xiaoyao down, he looked at Zhiguang and said bitterly: "Senior brother has been seriously injured, and he needs to be in seclusion for at least half a year before he can regain his energy.
Use magical powers to cover up the manifested dragon energy. The situation is urgent now, but Zhiguang will transfer the true energy to the senior brother for use..."
Zhiku didn't refuse, and Heshi said: "That's good, that's good, then I'll help my junior brother."
After Zhiku finished speaking, he sat cross-legged and Zhiguang chanted the Buddha's name. He also sat down cross-legged behind Zhiku, raised his palms to Zhiku's "Duyu point", and slowly injected the true energy into his body.
When Zhiguang's true energy output reached 50%, he suddenly felt a qi coming from Zhiku's body. His palm shook and his palm was blown away. He couldn't help but asked in shock: "Senior Brother, why are you doing this?"
Zhiku, who was sitting cross-legged, turned around and faced Zhiguang head-on. Through the white light emitted by the Shuanglong Pond, he looked at Zhiguang's tired face and said, "Amitabha, sin, sin,
Junior brother, I have to transfer all my true energy to give me 70% of my power. Although it can give me the power to use the 'Leaking Out Tong', it is still not enough to cover up the dragon energy manifested in two places..."
Although Zhiguang has entered the Golden Body Realm, but it has only been more than a year, his cultivation level is still inferior to Zhiku. Even if he pours all his true energy into Zhiku, it can only restore 70% of his strength.
"Ming Wuruo is not dead, but there is no need to cover the entrance to the Dragon Vein Spirit Cave at Tianwang Peak. Senior brother can only cover the dragon energy manifested here..."
Zhiku shook his head, "Once they find the cave where the dragon veins of Tianwang Peak are located, they will definitely see the truth from the flow of 'Earth Water Spiritual Luck'. Although the entrance to here is connected to the Housi River in the cave.
It's a deep pool, but they will eventually find it."
"And after I use the 'Leaking Tong' magical power, my energy will be greatly damaged again, and Chu Nanfeng should not be the enemy of Chu Nanfeng by then. Moreover, this Shuanglongchi's Fire and Wind Luck will not be released until the eighty-one day after the death of Emperor Yingjie."
It will work with the Dragon Vein's 'Earth and Water Spiritual Luck', so we borrowed this place in order to recognize the Dragon Vein's great fortune. During this period, as long as they find the bones of the ancestors of the Zhao family, all our efforts will be in vain."
Zhiguang thought that he knew the purpose of Zhiku. Hearing this, his expression became stern. He looked at Zhiku with a solemn expression and bowed his head, saying, "Amitabha, I am merciful and help my brother to reach the realm of the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss."
After Zhikuheshi chanted the Buddha's name, he said: "With the help of my master and brother, my soul can have the ability to leave the body and gather the power of the physical body. I should be able to survive the eighty-one days after the death of the emperor."
Within, the dragon energy manifested here and the bones of the ancestors of the Zhao family are covered. Before the power of my soul is gone, even those who have practiced the 'Pinglong Recognition' energy-seeing technique cannot see through this place.
Everywhere.”
After a pause, his eyes turned to the sleepy Luo Xiaoyao. He reached out and took out a small box from his arms and handed it to Zhiguang, "But the little layman has no one to take care of him during this period, so he has to take the 'Bigu Pill'... Junior Brother
And feed him these five pills, use the qi machine to catalyze them, and seal them in the foot Yangming meridians to protect him from hunger for half a year."
Zhiguang hesitated for a moment, said the Buddha's name, took the 'Bigu Pill', stood up and walked to Luo Xiaoyao's side, squatted down, followed Zhiku's instructions, fed the pill into Luo Xiaoyao's mouth, and then used his breath to seal the catalytic power of the medicine in Luo Xiaoyao's mouth.
Among his foot Yangming meridians.
When Zhiguang finished his work and came to him, Zhiku smiled slightly and said: "Amitabha, after my Qi machine turns into a spirit, I will ask my junior brother to take my physical body to the South Tower of Shangjing in Daliao for storage..."
Zhiguang suddenly knelt down and bowed his head, "Zhiguang sincerely abides by the decree of senior brother."
****
Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen arrived at the Kaifeng Princess Mansion not long after. When they arrived at the hall of the mansion, Miao Kexue, who was pacing back and forth in the hall with an anxious look on her face, opened her mouth. Xiao Muyun asked: "What happened?
What's going on?"
Miao Kexue turned to look at Qing'e behind her who had taken care of her and said, "Aunt Qing, tell the two sisters what happened..."
Qing'e nodded, opened her red and swollen eyes, looked at Xiao Muyun and said: "Qingqing went to bed at Haishi last night. She usually wakes up at Mao and stays with her in the morning.
Seeing that she hadn't woken up, the girl didn't dare to call her out for a while, so she came to tell me that I know..."
"This servant thought that the princess had no work to do yesterday, so she shouldn't have slept past the time of waking up. Feeling strange, she went to call her, but she didn't hear any response from her."
"At that time, the door of the chamber was locked, so the slave girl broke open the window paper and peeked in. She saw no one on the couch, but the small bed quilt on the couch was messy. But she guessed that the princess might have been kidnapped, so the slave girl informed Kexue
After that, Miss, sent someone to the palace to inform Lord Chang..."
"What about my Uncle Chang?"
Miao Kexue continued: "Uncle Chang, Uncle Meng and others came to ask about Aunt Qing's situation, and then left the house, saying they were going to the city gate to inquire to see if any guards saw anyone coming from the gate in the middle of the night.
Access to the city wall..."
"So Uncle Chang and the others haven't returned since they left the mansion?"
Miao Kexue nodded, "At around three o'clock in the morning, Senior Brother Yan and Senior Brother Zhao also came over after hearing the news. After asking about the situation, they guessed that the two senior uncles might have gone to the Kaifeng Mansion Office, so they left the mansion to look for them.
But I haven’t come back yet…”
Xiao and Lin now suspected that Chang Shan and the others were going to seek help from Manager Pei. After hearing this, they looked at each other and nodded. Xiao Muyun said: "I and I are going to Manager Pei's residence, and Miss Kexue is here."
I'll be waiting for you at my house. If Uncle Chang comes to my house, I'll tell him the whereabouts of the two of me..."
Little did they know that Miao Kexue said: "I will go with my two sisters, and I will leave Aunt Qing in the house to convey the message."
Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen knew that she was concerned about Chang Qingqing's safety, so they did not refuse, nodded, and left the house with Miao Kexue.
As soon as they arrived at the gate of the mansion, they met Chang Shan and others leading a group of divine tiger camp guards, and Manager Pei also came with them. After the ceremony, everyone entered the hall of the mansion and took their seats.
Xiao Muyun looked at Chang Shan, "Uncle Chang, does he have a clue?"
Chang Shan instead asked: "What do you think is the reason for Qingqing's disappearance?"
"In Yi Muyun's opinion, Qingqing was kidnapped by others, and the only person in the world who can have evil intentions towards Qingqing is the evil thief Liu Gongwen..."
"I thought the same thing." Chang Shan nodded and said with a frown: "As soon as I heard the news about Qingqing's disappearance, I asked the Kaifeng Prefecture Yamen Guards to search all the inns inside and outside the city, and asked the guards around.
However, the castle soldiers found no clues."
"In desperation, I asked Manager Pei for help, and sent a message to the stewards of the inns in the surrounding states, asking them to send people to investigate. But I thought that you two must have arrived at the Princess's Mansion, so you and Manager Pei came over in advance...
…”
Manager Pei continued: "Where does Miss Xiao think Liu Thief will kidnap the princess?"
Xiao Muyun pondered for a moment, "Liu Thief borrowed pills to help him practice martial arts. He spent a lot of money during this process. He thought he would seek refuge with a noble official in the court and be a person with great power, so that he could help him."
"After he hid in the Southern Han Dynasty for me and my senior brother to find out, and because my uncle He Shi was in the Southern Han Dynasty, he didn't dare to hide himself anymore. After killing my father, he didn't dare to stay in the Liao Dynasty or the Northern Han Dynasty. In the Central Plains,
The earth is even less capable. From what I can tell, the only possibility is that he is hiding in Western Shu, Southern Tang and Wuyue."
Liu Gongwen uses elixirs to assist the exercises, which will cause the imbalance of yin and yang in the body's qi. However, it needs to be adjusted with the skills of both men and women, but it is only possible to find a virgin woman. If it is not possible to borrow the power of a powerful court,
Even if a noble official has enough money to buy medicinal materials and practice elixirs, he will eventually be exposed because of women's affairs.
At this time, Xiao Muyun did not want to explicitly say that Liu Gong Wenxiu had the skills of both men and women, but just said that he borrowed elixirs to help him practice martial arts.
Although Manager Pei was only in the realm of spiritual consciousness, he knew the benefits of using elixirs to assist martial arts. After hearing what Xiao Muyun meant, he knew that her judgment was reasonable and nodded: "So, this thief
After a long journey, it would be inconvenient to take the princess with her, so she would definitely hire a carriage instead."
"My Master Mu also guessed this way." Xiao Muyun nodded.
"I have sent a letter to the inns in various states and counties via Feige, asking them to inquire about all the inns in the city. If Liu Thief has a history of staying in these states and counties, his whereabouts will be discovered..."
Manager Pei paused for a moment, stroked his short beard, and muttered: "If Liu Thief kidnapped the princess when he was a child, the city gates of all the states would be opened after dawn... Among them, for nearly three hours, with his
When Xiujiao takes the princess with him, he can travel no more than three hundred miles."
"If you don't dare to bring the princess into the city without hiring a carriage, I think he should first stay at an inn outside the city and wait for someone to find a carriage before starting the journey."
Xiao Muyun thought, "When did the steward send the message to the neighboring states?"
"Master Chang only went to look for me when he was almost there. It was then that I passed the letter around."
"Three hundred miles, six hundred miles round trip..." Xiao Muyun looked at Manager Pei, "How many miles can a flying pigeon fly in one hour?"
Manager Pei already knew the meaning of Xiao Muyun's question and said: "If there is no wind and rain, the speed is better than the foot power of a person who has achieved great cultivation in Baodan. He can fly more than two hundred miles per hour. I have sent a message from now on."
…If the arrow guards from various states who are out to investigate find out any information, they will send a reply around the time of Shen.”
Xiao Muyun said: "The time of application is approaching, I will go to the steward's house to wait for you. If there is any news then, we can immediately set off to pursue it..."
Chang Shan nodded, stood up, and looked at Meng Xiaohu, "You and I are responsible for the internal defense, so it would be inappropriate to leave at the same time. Brother Xiaohu will stay in the capital, and Mu Yun and I will go together..."
Before Meng Xiaohu could answer, Miao Kexue continued: "I would like to go with Uncle Chang and my two sisters..."
"We also want to accompany you..." At this time, Zhao Kuangyi, Yan Qiu, and Gong Shaowen said in unison.
Chang Shan glanced at Miao Kexue and others, shook his head and said: "That Liu Thief is a master of Bao Dan. If you go there, you may not be able to help him. If you are not careful, you may be hurt by him, which will in turn hurt us."
Distracted.”
In fact, although Chang Shan received the true biography of Wu Wangbo, he entered the academy late, and his current level of cultivation was the state of true enlightenment, but it was very different from Yan Qiu and Gong Shaowen who entered the academy three years before him.
Chang Shan's identity is his uncle. Yan Qiu did not dare to argue with the truth, so he said: "That willow thief can poison people. I and a few others are familiar with the antidote method and may use it at that time."
Chang Shan pondered for a moment and nodded, "What Yan Qiu said is not unreasonable. Then you and Shaowen can accompany you. As for Kuang Yi and Ke Xue, they will stay in the capital..."
"Why is this?" Miao Kexue asked anxiously.
"Yan Qiu, Shaowen has entered the state of returning to his true nature. If there is a fight, he may be able to help. And if he wants to prevent Liu Thief from using poison, it is enough for him and his two to accompany him. You and Kuang Yi are just Gu Yuanxiao
Once you reach the level of cultivation, fighting will still require people to take care of you..."
"Here, sister Muyun, sister Wanzhen..." Miao Kexue was anxious and looked at Xiao Muyun and Lin Wanzhen, hoping that they could help each other and persuade Chang Shan to agree to let her go with them.
Xiao and Lin knew that pursuing Liu Gongwen this time was very dangerous, so they looked at each other and shook their heads.
But at this moment, a well-dressed man rushed in and presented the small bamboo tube in his hand to Manager Pei, "Report to Manager Pei, there is news from Songzhou..."
Everyone was shocked and delighted, all looking at the small bamboo tube that Manager Pei took over. Manager Pei crushed the sealing wax and took out the note, his eyes lit up and he said: "In Chenshi, there is a man over forty years old.
An inn outside the city hired a carriage to go to Jiangning Mansion, and there was a young woman accompanying him..."
Chang Shan took the note and looked at it, and said: "It seems that it is the evil thief and Qingqing. Mu Yun, you have seen Liu Thief's appearance. When you rush to Songzhou, you can verify it again..."
After a pause, he looked at Meng Xiaohu and said, "Brother Xiaohu is responsible for the internal defense matters. The Emperor is personally on the expedition. Regarding Qingqing's abduction, please do not let him know first, lest he worry."
Meng Xiaohu hesitated for a moment and then said thoughtfully: "The Liu thief is not weak in skills, I think it would be better if Gang Leader Fang rushes back to help..."
"Master Meng, don't worry. Master Mu has ordered me to find a senior to help me deal with the Liu thief, and this senior is in the south of the Yangtze River. After I determine where the Liu thief is, I will ask for his help.
.”
Manager Pei continued: "I immediately sent a letter to Manager Zhu of Jiangning Mansion, asking him to pay attention to the carriages and horses that have entered Jiangning City recently, but I think he will track down the Liu thief."
Meng Xiaohu was overjoyed when he heard this, looked at Xiao Muyun and said: "Among all the people, you are the only one with the highest cultivation level, but you have to be careful."
Meng Xiaohu knew that only with Xiao Muyun's cultivation level could he fight Liu Gongwen up close, and Liu Gongwen was Xiao Muyun's father-killing enemy, so he was afraid that she would be so filled with grief and hatred that she would attack rashly and kill Liu Gongwen instead.
Gong Wen took advantage of it.
Xiao Muyun knew what he was worried about and nodded, "Uncle, don't worry, Mu Yun won't act out of emotion."
After saying that, he and Lin Wanzhen said goodbye together with Chang Shan, Yan Qiu and Gong Shaowen, and rode their horses to Songzhou.
After arriving in Songzhou, the Jianwei who went to Songzhou to inquire about the news checked and confirmed that the people mentioned in the letter were Liu Gongwen and Chang Qingqing. Everyone was surprised and happy, and rushed to Jiangning Mansion without stopping.
.
Lin Wanzhen had participated in the assassination of the Liao envoy in Jiangning Mansion with Luo Xiaoyao and others in order to know the location of the other courtyard where Manager Zhu lived. As soon as he arrived at Jiangning Mansion, he led everyone to look for it.
Manager Zhu was greatly surprised when he saw everyone arriving. He carefully asked the audience why they were here, but he smiled bitterly. "Even though the flying pigeon delivers the message quickly, it is relayed every two or three hundred miles, so there is a delay in the process. You all rushed forward non-stop.
It came a step faster than Manager Pei's message, but I didn't receive the message."
When everyone was stunned, Manager Zhu said again: "However, the behavior of this evil thief should be as judged by Miss Xiao. He has taken refuge in the officials of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Moreover, he has made alchemy. It should be easy to find out. After two days with the old man,
With some effort, we should be able to find out where he is staying."
Chang Shan nodded, "Then Lao Zhu will be in charge."
Xiao Muyun thought about it and said, "I wonder if there is an inn run by Tongbao Pavilion in Chizhou?"
"Yes, what does Miss Xiao mean?"
"I wanted to find Shen Liancheng's junior brother, Mr. Ji Jing Haiji, to help me. I originally wanted to go there in person, but I was afraid that things might change, so I had to send a message to Chizhou... and send someone to Jiuhua Mountain to ask me for advice.
Come here, sir."
Shen Liancheng had secretly helped Luo Xiaoyao in the assassination of the Liao envoy that day. Manager Zhu had always been surprised by this. When he heard this, he guessed that it was related to Ji Jinghai, and he was very concerned about finding Ji Jinghai to help him.
He was greatly surprised, "But with Mr. Ji's help, the old man is relieved. Miss Xiao will go with the old man to the study to write a letter, and the old man will immediately ask the Arrow Guard to teleport to Chizhou."
After Xiao Muyun finished writing the handwritten letter of rumors, Manager Zhu asked everyone who was running all the way to rest first, then left the other courtyard and went out to inquire about Liu Gongwen's whereabouts.
