"When you left that year, Wanjin Tower had some residual forces in the Central Plains. After you came back, you contacted them and asked them to do things to provoke the martial arts and oppose the imperial court."
"But what you did is very strange. It's not like you're taking revenge, but more like you're trying to win them over. You want to take them to the Western Regions with you."
"So, I guess you have joined some forces in the Western Region. I guess you are a blood clan. They are similar to the ghost clan."
"You came back after all the hard work just to win some people over to the Western Regions?"
After confirming that the Holy Blood Messenger was Shen Wanjin, Long Chen revealed all his guesses and doubts.
Shen Wanjin sneered and did not answer Long Chen's question.
"Trees are moved to death, and people are moved to life. When I was hunted by you, there was no way to survive in the Central Plains. I had to follow the caravan across the desert to the Western Regions."
"I didn't expect that after arriving in the Western Region, I would have an adventure."
Shen Wanjin looked back on those days with deep emotion. .??.
Li Guipo leaned on a cane and looked at Shen Wanjin. She couldn't help but said: "I thought it was some kind of holy envoy from the Western Regions. After doing this for a long time, it turned out to be you, a lost dog."
Shen Wanjin was indeed prosperous back then, but his subsequent end was ugly, and the martial arts community in the Central Plains looked down upon him.
"Li Guipo, does it matter who I am?"
Shen Wanjin was a little unhappy.
He thought that telling his past events would appear inspiring, but he didn't expect that he would be looked down upon by everyone.
"If I hadn't contacted you, supported you, and given you a way out, you could only have gone to Yuncheng to detoxify, and how could you still be so arrogant here?"
Shen Wanjin glanced at everyone and his tone became cold and stern.
Indeed, if Shen Wanjin hadn't taken action, these people would have been obedient.
"Hmph, we are no longer what we were back then. Without you, we can still deal with Long Chen."
Li Guipo is very confident.
Shen Wanjin couldn't help but shake his head. This Li Guibao was too confident.
"Okay, since you're so good, I'll let you take the lead."
Shen Wanjin stepped back, while Li Guipo moved forward with a cane. Behind him, a dozen disciples held various strange weapons in their hands, including suonas and gongs.
Li Guipo turned around and said, "You all obey my orders."
After saying that, Li Guipo raised her sleeves and began to cry: "Oh, I am so miserable. I was born in Jinling City, and encountered a great disaster at Bailang Mountain."
The musical instruments behind him began to beat along with Li Guipo's cry, emitting a faint ghostly cry that penetrated directly into the ears, and felt his heart twitching along with it.
Feng He felt dizzy after hearing this, and Meng Yidao felt very irritable.
The first time Long Chen saw this kind of thing, he thought it was similar to Miaoyin's sonic power, but after listening to it for a while, he felt that his emotions were attracted by Li Guipo.
"It's so miserable in the King of Hell's Palace. I only hope my son can know each other."
Suddenly, a grimace appeared next to him. Long Chen was startled and slapped it with a palm.
boom!
Meng Yidao was shaken more than ten meters.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?"
Meng Yidao shouted, and Long Chen saw clearly that that grimace was not
The other person is none other than Meng Yidao.
"No, I'm obsessed."
Long Chen realized something was wrong and took a deep breath of cold air, feeling a pain in his lungs.
Roar!
Long Chen let out a lion's roar, violent infuriating energy exploded, and a storm swept across the valley. Li Guipo's cry was washed away, and the disciples behind him were swept up by the storm, and the music stopped.
Li Guipo stood firmly on the stone and withstood Long Chen's lion roar.
"Something."
Long Chen lost his mind for the first time, and I have to say that this Li Guipo has some tricks.
"Huh, there's still something to come!"
Li Gui Po picked up her crutch and charged towards Long Chen.
Meng Yidao saw it and didn't know what to say.
No matter how much Gui Po Li cries, she still doesn't dare to confront her. Is this because she is mentally ill?
Shen Wanjin looked at it coldly, and so did the others.
When he rushed forward, Li Guipo suddenly swayed, and Long Chen seemed to have seen Long Ye.
If Long Chen is really a member of the Long family, he may really be deceived, but he is not the original Long Chen and does not have such a deep obsession with Long Ye.
No matter who Li Guipo became, Long Chen's reaction would be the same.
A blast of true energy exploded, Li Guipo was hit, and her body hit the boulder hard.
"You are not Long Chen!"
Li Guipo pointed at Long Chen and shouted, her voice sounded weird, like a man's. Is this Long Ye's voice?
Long Chen was stunned. What happened to this Li Gui Po?
Could it be that she has met Tatsuno? So she can imitate him?
"Where is Long Chen, where is he."
Li Guipo asked loudly.
Long Chen was stunned. Shen Wanjin noticed that Long Chen's expression was wrong, but Shen Wanjin couldn't understand why Li Guipo said this? Why did Long Chen react like this?
The Long Chen in front of me is not a real person? Then where did the real person go?
The storm sword suddenly came out of its sheath, the wind blade exploded, and Li Guipo was chopped into pieces.
Holding the Storm Sword, Long Chen looked at Shen Wanjin coldly: "Why, you come all the way back and you don't want to fight with me?"
Shen Wanjin looked at Long Chen suspiciously and asked, "Who are you?"
Obviously, Shen Wanjin was sure that Li Gui Po was right and Long Chen really had a secret.
"Who am I? You should know best."
Long Chen sneered, after being in this world for so long, he is Long Chen.
"No, you hesitated just now. You are not the real Long Chen."
Shen Wanjin stared at Long Chen's eyes, as if he wanted to see through it.
"Huh, really? Then who am I?"
Long Chen held his sword and slowly walked towards Shen Wanjin.
"Why don't you take action yet?"
Shen Wanjin shouted, and the people in the valley suddenly rushed towards Long Chen.
Meng Yidao carried a giant blade made of sacred wood and rushed into the enemy group, and the melee began.
Long Chen raised his sword to pursue him, but Shen Wanjin's body flashed and he retreated dozens of meters in an instant.
So fast!
Long Chen was very fast, but he didn't expect that Shen Wanjin was faster and couldn't catch up.
The true energy exploded under his feet, and Long Chen accelerated again. Several black circles suddenly appeared around Shen Wanjin's body, and they all hit Long Chen at the same time.
In the past, Shen Wanjin's weapons were two iron galls, but now they are several black balls.
Zhuang Ling'er was once injured by a black ball. Long Chen swung his sword to split a black ball, and the magic stone exploded, sending fragments everywhere.
If Long Chen was half-ghost in the past, this demon-suppressing stone would still be poisonous.
After turning back into a normal person, the Demon Suppressing Stone is just an ordinary stone.
After catching up with Shen Wanjin, Long Chen's sword fell, the storm exploded, Shen Wanjin was involved in the storm, Long Chen killed again, Shen Wanjin felt the terror of Long Chen, several black balls shot out at the same time, and the The sand and gravel were rolled up and blown towards Long Chen.
After breaking through the sand and gravel, when Long Chen chased after him, Shen Wanjin had already disappeared.
Meng Yidao is still fighting with several masters, and the remaining cultivation bases are all good.
Long Chen did not continue to pursue Shen Wanjin. Since he dared to wait here, he must have thought of a way out.
Holding the Storm Sword, Long Chen killed the remaining people, leaving only two alive.
"Take him back for interrogation."
Long Chen sheathed his sword.
Meng Yidao asked: "Sir, won't you pursue me?"
Many martial arts people left just now, and Meng Yidao wanted to hunt them down.
Long Chen shook his head and said: "Shen Wanjin is an old fox. He is just here to delay time. We can't catch up."
Shen Wanjin had been the owner of Wanjin Building and was meticulous in his work. Long Chen would definitely not be able to catch up with him.
"Let's go back."
Long Chen mounted his horse, and Feng He led the two prisoners back.
It was already dark, the wind was howling, and the road was difficult to walk.
It was around midnight that we returned to Jinsha City.
Long Chen went back to rest, and Feng He interrogated him overnight.
When he got up the next day, Feng He presented the information obtained from last night's interrogation.
"Shen Wanjin doesn't seem to be in the country of Us. He is in the Frost Kingdom. This frost country is in the northwest of the country of Us. It is said that it is also a cold place, a bit like an ice field."
"There are blood tribes in the Frost Country, which are very similar to the ghost tribe. The place Shen Wanjin wants to take them to is the Frost Country."
Feng He rubbed his eyes and explained the key points of last night's interrogation.
During the interrogation all night, Feng He was very sleepy and kept yawning.
"Frost Country."
Long Chen drank a cup of hot tea and poured another cup for Feng He.
"Sir, it's better to wait for news from the Western Region. It feels like it's getting more and more complicated."
Feng He drank a cup of hot tea and still felt sleepy.
"You can go to sleep."
Feng He got up and went back to his room to rest.
Long Chen walked out of the house, stood on the wall of Jinsha City, and looked to the west.
Han Ziping came over and said, "Sir, are you up so early?"
Long Chen said: "You have to be careful here in Jinsha City and prepare more muskets and explosives. Those people are similar to ghosts."
Han Ziping nodded and said: "Don't worry, sir, we are all prepared. I didn't know the details before, but now that I know, it's easier to deal with."
After fighting against the ghost clan for several years, Han Ziping knew how to deal with them, and so did his soldiers.
To them, he is nothing more than a more powerful thief.
"You prepare a caravan in Jinsha City, and I will go to the Western Regions next year."
Long Chen ordered, and Han Ziping said in surprise: "Sir, are you really going to go? The situation in the Western Region is unknown, so I'm afraid to go there rashly."
The most troublesome thing is not the unknown, but that Shen Wanjin may have guessed that Long Chen would go and had set an ambush in advance.
"The only thing you need to prepare for is that if ghosts appear in the Western Region, things will be very troublesome."
"The people Shen Wanjin took away were not many, but if they increase indefinitely, the entire Western Region will become a world dominated by ghosts, and sooner or later they will invade the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Long Chen does not allow a country where ghosts are rampant to appear in the Western Region. The security of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the west must be guaranteed.
"yes."
Han Ziping took the order.
"Also, all caravans and people passing through Jinsha City must be identified. If they are half-ghosts, they will be killed without mercy. There is no need to persuade them to surrender."
Han Ziping immediately responded: "Yes!"
After getting off the city wall, Long Chen rested for a long time. When Feng He woke up, he immediately returned to the capital.
Meng Yidao stayed in Jinsha City. Tang Heizi and Han Ziping were not as good at cultivation and could not deal with the masters.
After walking on the road for almost ten days, I finally returned to the capital.
Long Chen and Feng He entered Fengming Palace and reported the matter.
After hearing this, the empress frowned deeply.
"The Frost Kingdom is the same country as the Ghost Clan? Shen Wanjin is actually alive and still making trouble in the Western Regions."
Long Chen said: "My reaction was too slow. Shen Wanjin took away many masters. These people can expand to create more half-ghosts, and things will be very troublesome."
"I plan to visit the Western Regions next year, or even earlier. The troubles in the Western Regions must be eliminated, and a country controlled by ghosts cannot appear."
The empress agreed with Long Chen's idea, but the situation in the Western Region was unclear, so it might not be appropriate to go there rashly.
"Think again if there is a more reliable way."
The empress said hesitantly.
Long Chen's status is very special and he can no longer take risks.
"I'm afraid not. This is the safest way. It is better to start a war in the Western Region than invade them."
Long Chen insisted on going to the Western Region.
The empress said: "The army always has to choose. Whoever goes with you must be carefully considered."
