Chapter 157 The direct descendant of the Fang family, the thunder and lightning cage!
Fang Ren passed through the many guards and came to a secret room in the building.
He was not worried that Lin Kuang would follow.
As a branch stronghold, the Louchuan Center has monitoring methods left by the direct line. Once someone sneaks in or breaks in, the direct line will know immediately.
The darkroom is small, with a nautical chart hanging on the wall and a stone screen as high as a person.
Fang Blade walked up to the screen, cut his palm, and smeared the blood into the circular groove on the screen.
This is a Taoist tool used to contact the direct lineage. In addition to the Fang family, the Lin and Zheng families also have similar things.
Soon, the grooves were filled with blood.
During this process, blood is continuously absorbed into the grooves, and gradually, the grooves that were originally made of rough stone become as smooth as a mirror.
An expressionless face of Fang Lezhong appeared on the mirror.
"Fang Ren, the foreign leader, pays homage to the elder of the Lezhong clan."
The square blade is raised in the hand and bowed.
"What's the matter?"
Fang Lezhong asked calmly.
"The elder of the natural clan."
Fang Ren lowered his head and said respectfully: "Just now, Lin Kuang came to the building."
"Lin Kuang..."
Fang Lezhong was stunned and said in shock: "He's not dead?!"
"Yes."
Fang Ren continued, "I can confirm that it is indeed Lin Kuang. He seems to have just escaped and searched for a while on the sea. He only found the Fang family's building and boat, so he showed up for help and asked me to help him contact the Lin family."
"..."
Fang Lezhong fell into silence.
He didn't want to believe it, but he knew that Fang Ren would never lie to him.
After a while, Fang Lezhong said: "Have you contacted the Lin family?"
"Not really."
Fang Ren shook his head, "Junior knows that this matter is of great importance, so I came here to ask for instructions."
"Did he say anything about the past twenty years?"
Fang Lezhong asked.
"No details."
Fang Ren replied, "I just said that I was caught in a trap and was imprisoned in the imperial prison."
"Prison..."
Fang Lezhong narrowed his eyes and quickly rejected: "This is impossible."
"Why?"
Fang Ren was surprised, "Although there are many ways to trap Yang Shen, for more than 20 years, imprisonment is the most labor-saving way."
"You are right, but the problem is that if you are trapped in a prison, it is impossible to escape!"
Fang Lezhong said in a deep voice, "Others might have believed it, but my Fang family once had a ninth-level golden body who was imprisoned and imprisoned until his death."
"Ninth Transformation of the Golden Body?!"
Fang Ren was extremely shaken, "Even the nine-turn golden body can be trapped until death. How did Lin Kuang get out?"
"Obviously, he was released by the imperial court."
Fang Lezhong continued to sneer.
Dedicate yourself to the imperial court?
Fang Ren's expression changed.
"Don't panic."
Fang Lezhong reassured, "Now that things have happened, I can tell you some secrets."
secret?
Fang Ren was overjoyed when he heard this and bowed his body even lower.
Being able to learn the secrets about the direct meridian means that he is getting closer to the direct meridian.
"Long before Lin Kuang became the Taoist master, Emperor Yongtai, who was also the then Prince Qing, had contact with our Fang family."
Fang Lezhong chuckled, "And what Lin Kuang did after he became Taoist master caused dissatisfaction among the people in the clan... So, we told Emperor Yongtai a little secret."
"..."
Fang Ren's downturned face was filled with dullness, "So, what happened back then..."
"We told Emperor Yongtai about the rumors about the Immortal God from the three ancient tribes."
Fang Lezhong raised his lips and said, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, but no one thought that Emperor Yongtai could actually get the Immortal Heaven."
"So that's it."
Fang Ren was thoughtful, and then thought of something, and asked: "Nine Transformations of Yangshen can predict danger in advance. Even if Lin Kuang went to the capital because he was greedy for profit and ignored the danger, he should have been alert when we were planning this matter.
That's why..."
"We did not take action against him directly. The news leaked to Emperor Yongtai was just a rumor."
Fang Lezhong showed disdain, "What's more, what happened in the Fang family's land can't be detected by just Yangshen Nine Changes."
"That's good."
Fang Ren breathed a sigh of relief and asked again: "Since he has surrendered to the court... I don't know what I should do. If I have any ill intentions towards him, I'm afraid he will sense it immediately."
"You don't have to do anything."
Fang Lezhong's eyes flashed.
"ah?"
Fang Ren was stunned.
"He is no longer a Taoist master. There is no threat to the Fang family. Even if he is unlucky, it is the Lin family's misfortune. It has nothing to do with us."
Fang Lezhong chuckled and said, "Stop the boat for a while, and I will notify the Lin family to pick him up... After all, we have known each other for many years, so you might as well take this opportunity to catch up on old times."
"Is this so..."
Fang Ren seemed a little unwilling and helpless, and bowed to accept the order: "Junior understands."
Fang Lezhong nodded and disappeared into the mirror.
Fang Ren stood for a while, waiting for the mirror to turn into stone again, then left the secret room and returned to the observatory.
"Why have you been gone so long?"
‘Lin Kuang’ squinted his eyes, his eyes twinkling.
"Do you think it's easy for people to believe that you are still alive?"
Fang Ren said with a bad face, "If you are afraid that I will sell you, get out of here. Once the direct descendant of the Fang family comes, you won't be able to leave."
"...Haha, just asking."
'Lin Kuang' looked at Fang Ren carefully and suddenly laughed, "If I didn't believe you, I wouldn't show up."
Fang Ren's face looked better now and he said: "The Lin family doesn't trust me and refuses to reveal their location."
"Um?"
‘Lin Kuang’ frowned, “What should we do?”
"What else can be done?"
Fang Ren said angrily, "Didn't you realize that this building ship has been fixed... I gave the position to the Lin family and asked them to come over."
"this……"
'Lin Kuang' looked moved, stood up and saluted Fang Ren, "If Brother Fang is punished this time, Lin will definitely ask the direct lineage of the Lin family to mediate."
"It's not as serious as you think."
Fang Ren waved his hand, "As long as you don't act around."
"Brother Fang is joking."
‘Lin Kuang’ sat down with a smile.
Then the two started chatting and talking about old times.
Time passed so slowly.
When it was just dawn, 'Lin Kuang''s face suddenly changed wildly, and without even thinking about it, he left his body with Yang Shen, wrapped his body and flew out of the building.
But it's too late.
The sea water near the building boat suddenly rose by a hundred feet!
Blah blah blah!
The sea water closes up at high altitude, forming a huge cage!
"Thunder is coming!!!"
There was a loud shout and a dazzling light lit up.
With a loud clicking sound, the entire seawater cage was surrounded by dense twisted thunder and lightning.
This is all done in the blink of an eye.
Because the speed was too fast, 'Lin Kuang' couldn't avoid it at all and ran into the thunder and water cage.
The Yang Shen was compressed and compressed by thunder and lightning until it shrank back into Zi Mansion.
When Fang Ren came to his senses, 'Lin Kuang' had been tied into a rice dumpling by lightning, with scars all over his body.
"My good nephew is already here, why should he leave in a hurry?"
A gap opened in the cage, and Fang Lezhong stepped out on the breeze.
"Elder of the clan..."
Fang Ren was stunned for a while, and his mind couldn't turn around.
"You can't circumvent Yang Shen's induction, so I even lied to you before."
Fang Lezhong smiled, "The purpose is for you to hold him back so that the clan's cave can approach the building."
"I see."
Fang Ren suddenly realized this and was extremely excited.
In fact, he has always hated Lin Kuang.
It's just that because his strength is inferior to others, he doesn't have many evil thoughts.
It's fine now, Lin Kuang has fallen into the hands of the direct lineage...
"Haha, Lin Kuang, you actually dare to come to Fang Family Louzhou for help. This is something I never expected."
Fang Lezhong smiled and looked at 'Lin Kuang', who had a livid face and was gritting his teeth without saying a word despite being in great pain.
"Do you think that no one knew about your plot to assassinate the direct descendants of our Fang family?"
"You're just a side branch of the Lin family. Who gave you the courage to kill three people who are direct descendants of our Fang family?"
Fang Lezhong slightly increased the power of the lightning rope.
Xu Chong couldn't help but groan, and his mouth and nose began to bleed.
"Don't pretend to have any backbone."
Fang Lezhong said disdainfully, "You were imprisoned in imperial prison. If you hadn't surrendered to the imperial court, would you have been able to escape?"
"Do you think everyone is as greedy for life and afraid of death as your Fang family?"
‘Lin Kuang’ sneered.
"oh?"
Fang Lezhong raised his eyebrows, "Even the nine-turn golden body will be locked up to death. How can you, a yang god, get out?"
"Sorry, I have no obligation to tell you."
‘Lin Kuang’ simply closed his eyes and said, “If you want to kill or behead me, please do as you please.”
Fang Lezhong narrowed his eyes.
The power of the lightning rope increased greatly again and began to shrink inward.
‘Lin Kuang’’s hair began to curl and his skin began to turn yellow.
A faint aroma of burnt meat wafted out.
Fang Lezhong was a little confused.
The Nine Heavens Purple Thunder, which can only be controlled by the Dharma Realm, is the only thing that can restrain Yang Shen.
Without the protection of the Yang God, the physical body is only the ninth level of body washing.
As long as he increases his strength just a little bit more, 'Lin Kuang' will be killed on the spot.
So brave...
After thinking about it, Fang Lezhong lowered his power and said, "You really didn't surrender to the imperial court?"
'Lin Kuang' looked at him coldly and did not answer.
"Okay, even if you didn't take refuge in the imperial court, you really escaped from the imperial prison on your own..."
The corners of Fang Lezhong's lips raised slightly, "Then what secrets do you have that make it worthy for the court to lock you up for more than twenty years without killing you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a trace of panic flashed in Lin Kuang's eyes, and he said harshly: "You are overthinking it. It's just that Emperor Qing wanted me to leak the news about Taiping Dao, and I just refused to say it."
"No no no."
Fang Lezhong shook his head, "You are just a side branch of the Lin family. You haven't had time to be included in the direct lineage. With the things you know, it is impossible for Emperor Qing to be so patient."
"I don't know what you're talking about."
‘Lin Kuang’ looked extremely ugly.
"Don't want to say it? It doesn't matter. The Fang family lacks everything except time."
Fang Lezhong chuckled and looked at Fang Ren: "You continue to control the building. No one is allowed to leave the building without my order. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
Fang Ren solemnly said yes.
"Um."
Fang Lezhong nodded, waved his hand to disperse the thunder and water cage, and took Xu Chong, who was bound, straight to the sea.
Wow.
The sea parted on both sides, leaving a huge and deep opening.
Under the sea, a normal-sized black coffin was quietly parked there.
If nothing else, the coffin is undoubtedly the Dongtian Spring and Autumn Tomb.
…
…
Beijing.
Xu Chong walked on the road, his heart unwavering.
When he was in prison, Lin Kuang gave him two directions. One was to go directly to the Lin family building ship, contact the direct lineage, tell everything about the events of the year, the supernatural powers outside the body, and that Ji Qingzhi was the Qing Emperor, and then use the teaching method to teach him.
The supernatural power is used as a bargaining chip in exchange for the place of the direct lineage to enter the Spring and Autumn Tomb.
Yes, the direct descendants of the Lin family also have the opportunity to enter the Fang family's cave.
The three major families will exchange a group of people to go to other caves every few years so that the new generation can get the best growth.
Choosing this direction can protect Xu Chong's personal safety to the greatest extent.
The price that needs to be paid is nothing more than the consumption of life span in the year of teaching the external incarnation.
But Xu Chong quickly rejected this direction.
It's not that he doesn't want to live for a year, but he's afraid that the Lin family will have to verify his bloodline.
You know, he was just looking at Lin Kuang's appearance, and he didn't really have the blood of the Lin family.
If he is found out, all plans will come to naught, and there will be no room for change.
The second direction proposed by Lin Kuang was to find the Fang family building ship and lure the direct descendants of the Fang family to take action!
Going in this direction is always full of crises, especially at the beginning.
If the Fang family had no intention of capturing him alive and directly sent out a strong lineup to kill him, Xu Chong might not be able to escape even if he had the ability to transform into a specter and break the sky with one hand.
However, once the Fang family feels that Lin Kuang is valuable and chooses to capture Lin Kuang alive and bring him back to the cave, things will get smoother and smoother in the future.
"Now, the first level has been passed."
Xu Chong raised his head and looked at the magnificent east gate of the imperial city: "It's the same here in the capital."
As Dou Tianyuan said, the new candidate for Zhan Shifu's horse wash was quickly approved by the cabinet after receiving the clan's approval.
Today is the day of handover between the old and the new.
"But Master Xu Chongxu?"
The middle-aged man waiting outside the city gate looked at Xu Chong and greeted him with a flattering smile.
"I am."
Xu Chong nodded, "Who is your Excellency?"
"Xue Fu, the editor of the Bureau of Economic Affairs, has met with you, sir."
The middle-aged man cupped his fists and saluted, "I have been ordered by Xi Ma to wait for you here and lead you to Zhan Shifu."
The school clerk is an official subordinate to Xi Ma and is responsible for copying, proofreading, correction and other specific chores of the economic bureau.
No need to ask, he got the news and came to curry favor with Shangguan in advance.
"No gift."
Xu Chong nodded, "Lead the way."
"yes."
Xue Fu made an invitation gesture, and when Xu Chong started to take steps, he fell half a step behind and followed.
When passing the city gate, Xue Fu took the initiative to take Xu Chong's appointment document and token and went to verify his identity.
Soon, the two passed through the city gate.
"Sir, please come this way..."
Xue Fu led Xu Chong and finally stopped in front of a palace garden, "This is the Wenhua Hall of the East Palace."
Xu Chong took advantage of the situation and looked around.
Although grand, it is just a normal-looking palace complex.
There are main hall, side hall, square and so on.
There is no hint of the cave flavor at all.
Xu Chong looked puzzled.
"Haha, you don't know something, sir."
Xue Fu explained with a smile, "The Wenhua Palace is indeed the Wenhua Palace, and this area does belong to the East Palace, but the real Zhan Shifu and the Prince's Palace are not here... Sir, please follow me."
After saying that, Xue Fu took the lead and walked towards Huabiao on one side of the square.
"This is the entrance to Jixiangtian. With the Zhan Shifu position token, you can enter directly."
Xue Fu turned around to explain, then took the lead and dived into Huabiao.
Xu Chong also followed and walked in.
The scene suddenly changes.
A new world just appeared before Xu Chong's eyes.
The sky is blue, the clouds are colorful, the mountains are high, and the flowing water is winding.
"My lord, please take a look."
Xue Fu pointed to the distance and introduced: "The village at the foot of the mountain is the residence of some servants and a place for farming and breeding. The manor halfway up the mountain is where the real Zhan Shifu is, and the palace at the top of the mountain is
This is the palace of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
"Is that so?"
Xu Chong nodded.
Judging from the sky, this place should be in sync with the outside world.
From the villages at the foot of the mountain, smoke rises from the kitchens, and from afar, the crow of cocks and the barking of dogs can be heard.
I have to say that this auspicious day is very lifelike.
——————
I'm really sorry, there is only this chapter today.
The number of updates should be reduced in the past few days.
One is because of the need to perfect the details of the subsequent plot, and the other is because of physical factors.
It will last for about three or four days, and then gradually restore the update volume, maintaining six thousand and competing for eight thousand.
Fortunately, it has been 30,000 per day in a row, which can be regarded as a successful challenge to myself.
Finally, thank you to those who have read this far.
