Looking at the blood foam flying out of the trap, Xu Zhiqiong was indeed an assassin and was bound to die.
Once the body is fished out, the identity can be determined as long as the head is left.
It doesn’t matter even if you don’t even have a head left, it’s enough to tear off your sinful karma. No matter what level of cultivation you are, as long as you tear off your sinful karma, you have to obey my instructions...
etc!
This guy seems to have only an inch and a half of his sinful karma. Can it be removed?
Moreover, he has a third-level cultivation level. Logically speaking, I should not be able to see his sinful karma. Why can I still see an inch and three?
I have never thought about this problem before...
While he was deep in thought, there was suddenly no movement in the trap.
There are only two ways to stop a trap. One is that the trap is broken, and the other is that the assassin dies.
Zhong Shen's trap is definitely not that easy to break, and the assassin should be dead.
Xu Zhiqiong walked forward, but saw that the flesh and blood in the trap was sticky and could not be seen in shape. There was a place that should be a human head, with an inch-three-inch horn on the top of the head.
Xu Zhiqiong leaned down, reached into the trap, and touched the assassin's horns.
The prince shouted: "Zhiqiong, be careful!"
Xu Zhiqiong retracted his hand and said: "Back off, everyone, back off!"
The horns are wrong.
This is not the feel.
Sin karma is false.
I never thought that sinful karma could be faked!
Where did the real sin go?
The true crime has not yet emerged.
When the body dies, the Tao disappears. If the assassin is really dead, his crimes should be able to emerge.
But the crime did not appear, which proves that the assassin is not dead!
Xu Zhiqiong shouted at the prince: "Your Highness, step on the trap again!"
The prince quickly stepped on it.
According to what Zhong Shen said, if the trap fails, it can be restored by stepping on it again. It can be restored twenty times in total.
But the prince almost stepped on the trap, and the trap never recovered.
This trap is completely broken!
Xu Zhiqiong was still prepared. To deal with a third-grade assassin, he found more than one helper.
He walked to the magic circle prepared in advance and started to contact Taifu.
Taibu responded: "It's too early to take action now. I can cut off his retreat, but I'm afraid I won't be able to kill him."
Having said that, Taibu still took action.
Even if you can't kill him, you still have to scare him, otherwise the prince will be in danger!
A ball of flame fell from the sky, fell into the trap, and Taibu began to cast spells.
After the flames came lightning strikes. The palace had many restrictions on onmyoji, and there wasn't much Taifu could do.
Not only was there not much, but it was basically ineffective. When the flames were extinguished, the thunder ceased, and the assassin stood up from the trap.
Taibu sighed and said: "With the same qualities, Confucianism overcomes yin and yang."
Confucianism overcomes yin and yang. In addition to the powerful defensive power of Haoran's righteousness, it also comes from the eighth-level skills of Confucianism, Wuxie!
The core of the skill is to eliminate the interference of evil thoughts and adhere to the way of the sages. To put it bluntly, it means to block external interference and improve self-control ability.
Once the innocent technique is activated, the phantom sounds, illusions and other confusing techniques in the Yin Yang technique will be ineffective, and most of the magic circles that interfere with the mind will be severely weakened.
The higher the level of the Confucian cultivator, the stronger the ability of Wuxie skills, and the stronger the restraint on Yin and Yang skills.
Taibu cannot use mind-disturbing spells to deal with assassins. He can only use fire, thunder and assassin hard steel, but these types of attacks are difficult to penetrate Haoran's righteousness.
Sure enough, the assassin crawled out of the trap, but he did not dare to fight anymore despite being seriously injured. He did not continue to attack the prince and instead went to the main entrance of the East Palace.
Xu Zhiqiong chased him to the main entrance and saw the assassin standing motionless in the corridor under the door.
Could it be that there is a magic circle in the corridor?
Xu Zhiqing guessed correctly that the magic circle hidden here was left by the assassin in advance to escape.
Xu Zhiqiong smiled.
Let me see where you run away this time!
As long as the assassin moves the magic circle, he will fall into Taibu's hands. Taibu doesn't have many ways to deal with him, but there are 10,000 ways to deal with the magic circle.
According to Xu Zhiqiong's positioning, Taibu immediately sensed the existence of the magic circle and instantly changed the transmission direction of the magic circle.
The assassin was supposed to use the magic circle to escape outside the palace, but unexpectedly he returned to the back garden of the East Palace.
The exit of the magic circle is in a very fatal location - between two rockeries.
There is also a Zhong Shen trap between the two rockeries, which is the same as the previous trap around the prince.
This time, if the assassin falls into the trap again, there will be no chance of survival.
Xu Zhiqiong rushed to the prince's side. With ferocious smiles, the two of them saw the assassin slowly appearing between the two rockeries.
"This bitch is finally dead!"
"I don't believe the trap can break again!"
Seeing that the assassin was about to fall into the trap, Chen Shuncai suddenly rushed forward and kicked the assassin: "You brave man, you will die!"
The assassin flew out and missed the trap.
Xu Zhiqiong and the prince looked at Chen Shuncai in confusion, and saw that Chen Shuncai was fighting with the assassin while asking the prince for forgiveness: "Your Highness, this old slave came a step late, which frightened Your Highness!"
The prince shouted: "Chen Bingbi, you are really useless. Not only did you arrive late, you also failed to catch the assassin. After a while, you were careless again and let the assassin go!"
The prince saw very clearly that Chen Shuncai came here not to kill the assassin, but to save his life!
As expected, Chen Shuncai exchanged more than ten blows with the assassin. Instead of catching the assassin, he and the assassin fought together outside the East Palace.
When Xu Zhiqiong chased him out, he saw that the assassin had escaped.
Chen Shuncai still said the same thing: "This old slave is useless, he was careless..."
The prince said angrily: "Stop being careless and chase me!"
Chen Shuncai lingered and refused to go. He couldn't chase him. With his speed, it was easy to catch up with a Confucian practitioner. He couldn't find a reason why he couldn't catch up, so he simply didn't chase.
"Your Highness's safety is important. I don't know if the assassin has gone far, so I don't dare to leave rashly..."
If you don’t chase me, I will chase you!
Xu Zhiqiong chased after the assassin's blood trail. He did not dare to chase too closely. Even if a third-grade Confucian was injured, it would be more than enough to deal with him as a sixth-grade inferior.
Although the great scholar did not run very fast, he ran very smoothly along the way. He did not encounter any patrols from the Forbidden Army, nor did he encounter any servants in the palace. He only encountered a few guards along the way, and he knocked them down easily.
Never say that he is lucky. Xu Zhiqiong feels that this matter has nothing to do with luck.
This guy was sent by the emperor!
He came to the East Palace three times in total. The first time Xu Zhiqiong was not present, and the prince escaped by luck.
The second time Xu Zhiqiong was present and sent the prince to the ice cellar for protection.
The third time Xu Zhiqiong asked Zhong Shen to set a trap to catch him, but he was rescued by Chen Shuncai again!
Why did the emperor send such a crappy assassin to kill the prince?
Not only did things not get done, but a lot of hands were left behind?
If the guess is correct, this guy ran out of the palace and would find a place to stay temporarily. After recovering from his injuries, he would return to the palace to recover.
Xu Zhiqiong was following quietly behind him. As long as he found out where this guy lived, he would call Taibu to arrest him tonight!
Although Confucianism says that Yin and Yang can be overcome, this guy was injured and Taibu had many people, so he couldn't escape even if he was exposed.
Xu Zhiqiong chased him a few streets and found that something was wrong. The assassin was running towards Prince Huai's Mansion.
If he is the one who Huai Wang, all of Xu Zhiqiong's inferences are wrong.
What exactly is going on?
Xu Zhiqiong put some distance between himself and the assassin, followed him down another street, and suddenly found that there was another man in black following the assassin.
This man in black is also a strong man, and Xu Zhiqiong cannot see his cultivation and sins.
Fortunately, this strong man focused all his attention on the assassin. He didn't find Xu Zhiqiong, and the assassin didn't find him either.
Who is this person?
Chen Shuncai?
Impossible. If Chen Shuncai was following him, there would be no way I could find him.
This figure doesn't look like that damn eunuch...
After walking a few more streets, Xu Zhiqiong saw the assassin jumping into Prince Huai's Mansion, followed by the man in black.
The moment he flew over the wall, Xu Zhiqiong saw clearly the figure of the man in black.
It turned out to be the second brother.
Why is he here?
Xu Zhiqiong didn't enter Prince Huai's Mansion. There were at least two third-grade people in Prince Huai's Mansion. Even if he turned into a mouse, he would have a high chance of dying.
The assassin was sent by King Huai, and was discovered by his second brother!
Something big has happened, something big is going to happen this time!
…
The bruised Gongsun Wen was lying in his bedroom. When he saw King Huai coming, he struggled to get up and said, "Your Majesty, I am incompetent. I want to help you kill the prince. I will also kill that bitch slave Chen Shuncai on the way. It's a pity that he was prepared in advance.
I made a mistake."
King Huai quickly helped Gongsun Wen lie down: "Why are you so reckless, sir? You want to take action, but you don't discuss it with me first?"
"Your Majesty, today's opportunity is really great. If it were not blocked by two chamberlains, I would kill the prince first, then Chen Shuncai, and if it goes well, I can also kill the foolish emperor. Your majesty can inherit the throne without having to mobilize troops!"
"Chen Shuncai figured out Mr.'s identity?"
Gongsun Wen shook his head and said: "That dog slave thought that I had left the palace. He never thought that I would come back. He also didn't know that I had any cultivation. He would definitely not doubt me about this matter.
Your Majesty, don't worry, if you are afraid that I will implicate you, I will leave now..."
Before he finished speaking, King Huai quickly stopped Gongsun Wen and said: "Sir, please live and recuperate. You are willing to go through fire and water for me. I should share weal and woe with you!"
King Huai left Gongsun Wen's room and ordered people to investigate what was going on in the palace.
If Gongsun Wen's identity has been exposed, King Huai must kill him to silence him. Seeing that he was seriously injured, it should not be difficult to kill him.
But if Gongsun Wen's identity is not exposed and what he says is true, it can prove that this person is loyal enough.
…
On ugly days, it rains heavily.
Liang Jixiong, the Shengwei elder, was soaked to the skin. He entered the Canglong Hall and knelt down in front of the Canglong statue.
Liang Gongping and Liang Shilu came one after another, and Liang Shilu asked: "But the identity of the assassin was found?"
Liang Jixiong looked at the two of them and said with a dull expression: "It was found out that he is a third-grade Confucianist."
Liang Gongping said in astonishment: "When did Confucianism come up with the third grade?"
Liang Jixiong said: "I don't know the origin of this person, but I know who is the mastermind behind it!"
Liang Shilu had a bad premonition: "Who is it?"
"Xiankang!" Liang Jixiong replied, "The third-grade Confucian went to Xiankang's house. I didn't hear what they said, but I saw Xiankang going to visit him."
Liang Shilu shook his head repeatedly: "Elder Shengwei, I know you are quite prejudiced against Xiankang, but you cannot frame this matter against him!"
"False accusation?" Liang Jixiong smiled, "Elder Shengde, that third-grade Confucian scholar is still in Xiankang's house. Go and have a look, and you will know at a glance!"
Liang Shilu stood up and said, "It's too late tonight. I'll go to Xiankang's mansion tomorrow to have a look!"
Liang Jixiong said: "Your injury has not recovered yet, I will go with you now!"
"No need to bother you!" Liang Shilu turned around and said, "If things turn out to be true, I will bring Xiankang's head back to you tomorrow!"
Liang Shilu left angrily, and Liang Jixiong said angrily: "We still have to wait until tomorrow? Are we waiting for him to send the assassin away? Elder Shengci, come with me tonight to catch the assassin!"
Liang Gongping stopped him: "Listen to me, you can't do this. We can only let Elder Shengde handle it."
Liang Jixiong shook his head and said: "You have protected me again and again, which finally led to today's bad results! What is the purpose of this?"
Liang Gongping said: "If Xiankang makes no big mistake, it would be a good thing for him to inherit the country!"
Liang Jixiong said angrily: "Liang Yuming practiced evil arts and usurped power. Isn't this a big mistake?"
Liang Gongping said: "Xiankang may not know about it."
"Now he instigates assassins to murder the crown prince. Isn't this a big mistake?"
Liang Gongping lowered his head and said: "The prince is mentally retarded."
Liang Jixiong took off Liang Gongping's clothes and said angrily: "What do you mean by this? The prince of a country allows you to speak so contemptuously?"
Liang Gongping sighed: "Elder Shengwei, the three of us are guarding the Daxuan Sheji together and we should work together as one. Let Elder Shengde handle this matter. If he can't handle it, it won't be too late for us to take action."
Liang Jixiong was puzzled: "Why must he handle it?"
"Because..." Liang Gongping said in silence for a long time, "Xiankang is his son."
Liang Jixiong took a few steps back, his body went limp and he fell to the ground.
…
In the Yin and Yang Division, Taibu was playing with the green lantern, trying to figure out the current situation.
He passed the yin and yang magic circle and left a mark on Gongsun Wen's body. He knew where Gongsun Wen was.
"King Huai, let's see how you escape this time!"
While thinking about it, a mouth appeared on the wall: "Master, the Grand Sect of Zhuque Palace, Bo Yanhuan, would like to see you."
Da Zongbo, the Lord of the First Palace of Zhuque Palace?
What is he here for?
Taibu responded: "Please come in."
Bo Yanhuan, the grand master of Zhuque Palace, who was over seventy years old, sat in front of Taibu.
Taibu poured a cup of tea himself and brought it to Yan Huan. Just as he was about to say a few words, Yan Huan asked, "Does Taibu know that more than two thousand laborers have gone missing in the hunting garden in the north of the city?"
"Hunting Garden?" Taibu shook his head, "I haven't paid attention to Hunting Garden recently."
Yan Huan asked again: "Does divination tell us that something evil is coming out of the south?"
Taibu was stunned: "Uncle Zong, is the southern land you are talking about my territory of Daxuan, or your territory of Yuxianguo?"
Uncle Zong frowned and said, "Why does the fortune teller ask this question?"
Taibu smiled and said: "If it is in the territory of Daxuan, it is not the uncle who can take charge of this matter. If it is in the territory of Yuxian Kingdom, it is not the old man who can take care of it."
Taibu was doing Tai Chi, and he didn't want to talk to Yan Huan about it.
Da Zongbo shook his head and said: "I can't take care of your Xuanguo affairs even if the world is turned upside down. But if someone wants to resurrect evil spirits, no matter where the matter is, I will have to take care of it!"
