When Mu Bangzhi described this past, Xu Zhiqiong used mantra techniques to test the situation from time to time, but the other party did not show the slightest precaution or reveal any flaws.
His description is basically consistent with what Xu Zhiqiong saw in the Xingxiu Corridor, and is also basically consistent with Yu Shizan's description. Even the detail that Ling Zhengze has been wandering outside for many years is very accurate. From this, it can be inferred that what he said is
truth.
But there was one thing that Xu Zhiqiong couldn't understand.
Why did Ling Zhengze run away?
He has been a craftsman in Qiancheng Kingdom for many years and should be able to make calm decisions when encountering emergencies.
But by running away, he obviously took all the blame on himself.
Could it be that he really couldn't find a better way at that time?
Mu Bangzhi sighed and said: "Originally, my lord wanted to report the matter directly to the king, but that night, Liang Yushen and the chief martial lord Linggu Xiu came to the mansion together.
Chief Wu Jun is a person who is afraid of causing trouble. After being frightened by Liang Yushen, he thought that there was no way around the matter, so he wanted to take my lord to prison.
My lord saw that the situation was not good and said he had to go to the toilet, so he found an opportunity to escape."
The chief martial lord, Ling Guxiu, and Ling Zhengze are both named Ling.
"Are Ling Guxiu and Ling Zhengze related?"
Mu Bangzhi replied: "Based on the clan members, the Chief Military Lord is the clan brother of my lord, but my lord has been away from home for many years and has not been in contact with him for a long time."
After testing the mantra several times, Mu Bangzhi did not lie.
Xu Zhiqiong had a preliminary understanding of the chief martial lord, and decided to bring Yu Shizan with him to explain the matter clearly to Linggu Xiu. He would first bring back the body of his second brother, and then prevent the dispute between the two countries.
The next morning, Xu Zhiqiong returned to the inn, but there was no sign of Yu Shizan in the guest room.
Did someone come to silence me?
Why didn't the mark I left send any message?
Xu Zhiqiong was looking for Yu Shizan's scent when he suddenly heard a scream coming from downstairs: "Who deserves to be killed, and he came to me again to get an advantage. He was arrested seven or eight times a day, and why is it never finished?"
Don't let me catch you. Once I catch you, I'll chop off your hands!"
As he spoke, the voices became closer and the footsteps became closer.
The pretty landlady pushed the door open, looked at Xu Zhiqiong and shouted: "Isn't this you?"
Xu Zhiqiong shook his head repeatedly and said: "I didn't."
"Do you dare to do it but don't admit it? I think it's you!"
Xu Zhiqiong said with a smile: "I didn't taste the delicious food, but I was wronged by you in vain. Once I'm satisfied, it's not too late to ask questions again!"
"Bah!" the landlady spat, feeling that the man just now didn't look like Xu Zhiqiong, so she went to the next shop to look for him.
After the landlady left, Yu Shizan climbed in through the window. Seeing him sweating profusely, Xu Zhiqiong frowned and said, "Have you recovered?"
"It's still a little worse."
"Have you recovered your cultivation level?"
"Not even close."
"Then you still dare to commit suicide?"
"It's worth it, it's really worth it," Yu Shizan said, holding out a hand.
"You really know how to brag."
"If you don't believe me, go and touch it."
"Bah! Am I your kind of person?" Xu Zhiqiong got down to business, "Do you know who I am?"
"I don't know!" Yu Shizan answered truthfully, "But I can guess that you are the judge's friend!"
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said: "I am going to take you to Baishen County. Before I go, there are two things I need to ask clearly. When Liang Yushen killed you, didn't he take out your soul?"
"It's twitching! He started twitching when he was fighting with me, but he couldn't twitch. I have the soul-protecting skill of a tiger."
"What kind of technique is this?" Xu Zhiqiong had never heard of it.
Yu Shizan explained in detail: "When you have cultivated to the fourth level of killing, there are two types of fourth-level skills. Most practitioners only know how to add wings to a tiger, but they don't know that this is not a real skill. The real skill is to protect the soul with the soul of a tiger.
There are many Taoist techniques in this world that can hurt the soul and the soul, and the tiger soul guard is specially designed to protect the soul and the soul. The murderous qi machine is born in the soul, and it tightly wraps the soul with the murderous aura, leaving no gaps.
, if the other party wants to hurt my soul and spirit, he will be counterattacked by murderous intent.
When Liang Yushen whipped my spirit, I backfired twice, and he was also injured. Later, after he killed me, he never whipped my spirit again, because he knew that my soul was on guard, and even if I died,
You can still hurt him!"
Even though Yu Shizan has never been upright, his Taoist common sense is not vague at all, and he really looks like he is killing a third-level Taoist.
Xu Zhiqiong nodded and said, "You can explain this technique in detail some other time. There is one more thing. Do you recognize Mu Bangzhi?"
"I recognize it. Ling Zhengze's subordinates are quite fair-looking. They usually like to paint their faces with black mud. They say that this way they will not reveal their identity easily and they will look more powerful."
Xu Zhiqiong smiled when he heard this, and praised Yu Shi: "You change your clothes first, and then follow me to see Linggu Xiu."
These days, Yu Shizan asked the store clerk to buy more than a dozen sets of clothes for him. He changed them every day and washed them from time to time. He seemed to be a clean person.
But before leaving, I changed several sets and still felt dissatisfied, which was a bit pretentious.
Xu Zhiqiong urged: "Hurry up, this is to see your chief martial artist, not your new wife, just look at it and that's enough!"
Yu Shizan shook his head and said: "It looks similar, but it smells bad. I always smell like sheep."
Xu Zhiqiong sneered and said: "Your Martial Lord can still lay on you and smell it?"
"What can he do if he doesn't hear it? I'm worried that I'll miss the real deal."
"What's the business?"
"If you encounter a good peach on the road, the smell of sheep will be easy for others to detect, but it is difficult to take action."
"When are you still thinking about Tao Zi? Hurry and set off!"
At noon, Xu Zhiqiong and Yang Wu met and used the magic formation to take Yu Shizan to Baifalcon City. The city guard didn't even look at him, but asked him as usual: "Is he from here or from another country?"
Yu Shizan didn't reply and stared at the officer for a moment.
The official was stunned, glanced at Yu Shizan, quickly lowered his head, and apologized repeatedly: "Master Wu, please forgive me."
It is not to blame that the officials were negligent. Yu Shizan was exiled outside the city most of the time, and the officials rarely saw him.
Yu Shizan took the two of them into Baifalcon City. Not far away, he saw Mu Bangzhi on the side of the road.
He discussed with Xu Zhiqiong and went to testify in front of the Chief Wujun with the Third Military Lord.
Yu Shizan looked at Mu Bangzhi and sneered: "I didn't expect that among Ling Zhengze's men, you would be the most loyal."
Mu Bangzhi was very unconvinced, but he did not dare to contradict Yu Shizan. He lowered his head and said, "My lord has been very kind to me. This is my duty!"
Yu Shizan stared at Mu Bangzhi for a moment, but Mu Bangzhi never dared to look up.
Not only Mu Bangzhi, but also the passers-by around him recognized Yu Shizan. His reputation in Baifalcon City even surpassed that of Linggu Xiu.
Although Yu Shizan staggered a little because his body had not yet recovered, the murderous aura and majesty all over his body still allowed Yu Shizan to show the momentum and character that a third-level martial lord and a third-level killer should have.
Yu Shizan walked in the front, and pedestrians moved out of the way. The men lowered their heads unconsciously, and the women unconsciously covered their peaches.
Xu Zhiqiong was thirsty and bought ale wine on the roadside. The girl selling the wine never dared to turn around and kept looking at Yu Shizan, almost tripping over the wine barrel behind her.
Yu Shizan frowned and said, "Why do you always look at me?"
The girl blushed and said, "It is rude to turn your back to Lord Wu."
Yu Shizan nodded and said, "You know etiquette very well."
"Thank you Lord Wu for your appreciation."
"But even if you understand etiquette, you may not be able to keep your peach!"
As soon as the words fell, the girl quickly covered Tao Zi, but it was too late.
Yu Shizan took the lead and touched it with both hands.
"It looks good, but it doesn't feel like anything in the palm of your hand. I can barely play it, only about three or five points."
The girl cried out: "Someone come quickly and beat this scum to death!"
All the young and strong people in Baifalcon City have gone out to fight, leaving only the old and weak in the city.
The old and weak people on the street were also unambiguous. They picked up the guy and fought with Yu Shizan.
"Hit! Beat this shameless one to death!"
"Isn't this shameless guy exiled? Why is he back again?"
"No matter what he does, just kill him!"
Some threw stones, some took sticks, and some directly used kitchen knives.
The people of Fanxiao, who advocated bloody fighting with fangs, put aside their morals and rules at this moment, united together, and surrounded their three martial lords.
Yu Shizan ran ahead and turned back to Xu Zhiqiong: "The last time I came back, the scene was bigger than this."
Xu Zhiqiong turned and looked away: "Don't look at me when you are talking. When the matter is finished, I will join the crowd and throw stones at you with them."
While he was talking, a stone actually hit Yu Shizan's leg.
The stone was hit too accurately and too hard. Yu Shizan staggered and almost fell down.
This situation is not right!
Although Yu Shizan has not fully recovered, he at least has a sixth-grade cultivation level. It is impossible for ordinary people to beat him, let alone hurt him.
Yu Shizan was really hurt by the beating.
But he didn't blame the White Falcon clansmen, he gritted his teeth and remained silent.
Another stone was struck, this one more accurately, not aiming at the bend of the knee, but at the temple.
The stone came very quickly, and by the time Yu Shizan could react, the sharp stone was about to hit him.
When he was shocked, a mandarin duck blade flew over and chopped the stone into pieces with one strike.
Yu Shizan wiped his sweat and laughed dryly: "Their hands are a bit heavy..."
Stones flew over like rain, Xu Zhiqiong's brows trembled, and relying on his quickness, he escaped with Yu Shizan.
Yu Shizan looked embarrassed and said: "Actually, I haven't been so hated before..."
Before he finished speaking, dozens of knives flew over, each one going straight to the vital point.
Xu Zhiqiong and Yu Shizan dodge while checking the source of the knife.
Some of these knives come from street meat vendors, some come from chefs in restaurants, and some come from housewives who cook. None of these people have any cultivation.
But judging from the speed, precision, and accuracy of the shot, even Chu He may not be able to do it.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of people were besieging Yu Shizan.
Their eyes were blood red, as if they wanted to kill Yu Shizan at all costs.
And as Yu Shizan said, is he so hated?
What's even more outrageous is that all the Fanxiao people who besieged Yu Shizan were standing in the most reasonable position.
They would not block each other's attack angles, but they effectively blocked Xu Zhiqiong's escape route.
This is a formation!
A simple yet powerful formation.
Xu Zhiqiong turned around and called Yang Wu using the sound transmission technique: "Use the magic circle to open a path!"
Yang Wu responded hurriedly: "The magic circle can't be used."
Can’t use the magic circle?
Chiyou's military seal!
Xu Zhiqiong looked at Mu Bangzhi.
Mu Bangzhi's face was covered with mud and he looked at Xu Zhiqiong silently.
