Chapter 46: Rain is coming in all directions (Part 2)
However, whether you enter the bamboo forest to practice and rely on adventure; or practice the Big Dipper Array to improve your swordsmanship, it is difficult to make rapid progress in just a few days.
Zhi Shouzhen would not place all his hopes on the six people of Ji Kang.
Only by entering another world through the white jade dice, and taking advantage of the time asymmetry between the earthly dream world and the human world, can he have the opportunity to improve his combat power through long-term accumulation. At least he must wake up the evolved eight-winged golden cicada and release it.
The power of the Thirteen Curses of the Forbidden Figurine Sacrifice Technique is revealed.
But this requires a large amount of beast soul to inspire the white jade dice. The more abundant the beast soul is, the longer it will stay in the Dream Road.
Zhi Shouzhen asked Xie Xuan, Zhou Chu and the others to search for beast souls on the grounds that he needed beast souls to practice a kind of spiritual magic. In addition to practicing the Big Dipper Formation together, he also found time to study the Golden Que Illustration.

This spiritual book is truly magical. When Zhikarizhen sensed the golden bead with his mind, a ray of his own spiritual power immediately materialized into his appearance, with no clothes or socks, and he appeared naked in a huge and strange palace.
.
The palace towered into the clouds, so high that the roof above could not be seen, and was completely covered by dense golden clouds. The golden smoke kept rising and changing, changing shapes, and many strange-pitched whispers came from the clouds, as if they were alive.
living creatures.
The ground beneath his feet was like a solid block of ice, as bright as a mirror, spotless, and clearly reflected the figure of Shikarizana. He looked around, and there were criss-crossing golden palace walls everywhere, forming winding corridors. On the high wall, there are deep and mysterious patterns carved on it, which look like some kind of exotic writing or the shape of the organs of some kind of creature. Zhikari stared at it for a long time, but couldn't understand it. In addition,
The palace is empty, there is nothing.
Zhikarizhen called a few times tentatively, but couldn't hear any reply. The lingering sound echoed in the vast palace for a long time. He walked along the palace wall for a long time, and still couldn't find the exit, nor could he find it.
When you reach the return entrance, you feel like you are trapped in a complicated maze.
He tried to escape from the golden palace, but found that he was trapped. Unless he exhausted this ray of spiritual power, he could not leave.
It suddenly dawned on Zhikarizhen that in order to learn the spiritual secrets of the Golden Que Illustration, he had to leave the palace. He tried to memorize the patterns on the walls along the way, but found that the palace would constantly move the high walls according to his route of action.
Block the original way of survival and turn it into a dead end.
Zhikarizhen tried many times in succession until all his spiritual power was exhausted, and then he escaped. He never discovered any of the techniques of the Golden Que Illustration.
This is also expected. After all, the Golden Que Illustrated Book is one of the four great spiritual books. There must be something special about it. It is difficult to gain anything until the secrets are revealed.
Otherwise, how could Bian Wuya be willing to give this treasure to himself so easily?
"Master Qi, General Tianluo Guard has arrested Mr. Ning and is here to visit." The boy came to report.
Zhikarizhen met the other party in a pavilion in the bamboo forest. The green bamboos were quiet, and the blazing sunlight streamed down from the thick and dense bamboo leaves, making it a bit cooler.
"Master Ning, please." Zhi Shouzhen picked up the wine cup and greeted Ning Xiaoxiang. The amber wine was as thick as honey and fragrant. Ji Kang and the other six were all good at wine, and the bamboo forest had enough fine wines from all over the eight wastelands.
Thousands of species.
"Please, Mr. Yuan Xiaohou." Ning Xiaoxiang smiled and raised his glass in return, filled with emotion. When Yuan An first entered Jiankang, he was just a country boy who was looked down upon by others. He was helpless and even wanted to
Dig out the secrets of his skills.
Unexpectedly, in just a few months, Yuan An's reputation has skyrocketed, and now he has skyrocketed to become a first-class celebrity and one of the Seven Sons of the Bamboo Forest. Even if he is in a high position, he cannot easily control it.
"This deep valley in Zhongshan is surrounded by mountains and rivers, with dragons and tigers nestled in it. It is famous for its abundant spiritual energy. It can be said to be an excellent Feng Shui treasure land. The former young marquis spent his summer vacation here, which is really enviable to me." Ning
The little elephant exchanged a few pleasantries and gradually turned to the main topic.
He came with the order of King Jin Ming, implying that Zhi Shouzhen had been staying in the bamboo forest recently and should not go out hastily, so as not to disturb the people's livelihood and cause bloody chaos in the streets.
In fact, King Ming of Jin Dynasty opened the defensive array of Jiankang City and strictly prohibited Hedao masters from entering the city, which was an unexpected surprise to Zhi Shou. "Thank you for your great kindness, Your Majesty. Yuan is very grateful." Zhi Shou Zhen agreed happily, "The bamboo forest is quiet and quiet.
, just in time for me to practice kendo in seclusion."
"Young Master, you're welcome. Tianluo Guard will also inform the original Young Master of some changes in the city, so that you can make arrangements early." Ning Xiaoxiang felt helpless, and this time Bian Wuya threw out the Golden Que Illustration
, whether it is Yuan An, King Jin Ming, or himself, they all have to catch this hot potato.
Yuan An did it for the Emperor Shen Xiaozong, and King Jin Ming did it to protect the royal family of the Jin Dynasty. If outsiders were allowed to enter Jiankang to kill people and seize treasures, where would the majesty of the royal family be? As the chief arrester of Tianluo Guard, he had the unshirkable responsibility to maintain public security in the capital.<
/p>
The two parties finished talking about business and exchanged a few polite words. Ning Xiaoxiang was about to leave. Zhi Shouzhen's eyes flashed and he suddenly said: "Master Ning, I remember that you came to the Yongning Marquis Mansion last time and inquired about the death of the eldest princess of Huayang.
One thing..."
Ning Xiaoxiang's expression condensed and he stopped, his gentle smile showing a sharp edge.
"I had just entered the Marquis Mansion at that time, and I didn't know many things clearly. Naturally, I couldn't talk about it, so as not to mislead you. But -" Zhikarizhen changed the subject, with a tangled look on his face, "In the past few months, I have
I found something wrong, and I don’t know whether I should say it to Lord Ning. Alas.”
He pretended to sigh long and short, looking worried.
"This matter is very important. I hope that the young marquis will tell you the truth." Ning Xiaoxiang said seriously, secretly guessing the other party's intentions.
Zhi Shou was really frowning, and after a long time he paused and sighed: "Originally, family ugliness should not be publicized, but now I am deeply protected by your majesty. How can I ignore the grace and hide it and not repay it? Lord Ning, I can't hide it from you. My father Yong Ning
Hou has been bedridden for a long time, and his temperament has changed. It seems, it seems..." He stopped talking.
"What does it seem like?"
"It seems to be possessed by evil spirits!"
Ning Xiaoxiang's expression changed and he said in a deep voice: "Young Master, are you serious about what you said?"
Zhi Kaizhen cupped his hands and said: "Master Ning, I have limited knowledge and dare not make a hasty conclusion. I still need Master Ning to conduct a thorough investigation."
Ning Xiaoxiang stared closely at Zhihou Zhen. If Yongning Hou was really possessed by evil spirits, then the inexplicable sudden death of Princess Huayang would be traced. But even if the death of the eldest princess was related to Yongning Hou, he wanted to
Dealing with a top-level powerful person is also very difficult.
He sat down again, poured a glass of wine for himself and Zhikarizhen, smiled and said: "This wine is sweet and rich, with endless aftertaste. If the young marquis has time, you and I might as well drink it slowly."
That night, Xie Xuan, Zhou Chu and Kong Jiuyan arrived hand in hand, sending a massive amount of beast souls, enough for Zhi Shou to stay in Mengdao for decades.
In the sea of consciousness, the white jade dice seemed to be induced, trembling gently and emitting a strange glimmer of light.
