In the secret room of the small courtyard, Wu Mingjing sat at the stone table, reading countless encrypted letters at a glance.
Judging from the secret code hidden on the side, the ant nest here has been abandoned for about three months. It is also the eighth cave Wu Ming has walked through after passing dozens of big cities.
Many of them have been vacant for more than a year and a half to about a month.
The reason why such a scene occurred is that either he died unexpectedly, or he escaped early due to the possibility of being exposed!
Of course, the possibility of being caught is not ruled out!
Take this as an example. It is obvious that he went into hiding after being exposed, but the real location of the ant nest was not discovered. Otherwise, the various small warning mechanisms in the dark room would not have been activated at all, and the various encrypted messages would not have been passive.
After more than half a month of searching day and night, Wu Ming finally filled in all the blank information in the past three years.
The first is to confirm that the Dragon Meteor Sword was indeed taken back by the Dragon Clan on the grounds that the clan's treasure cannot be leaked out. The temples did not hide this matter, but made it public, which was considered a good way to maintain the alliance between the two clans.
Furthermore, the Lengyue Sword fell into the hands of a semi-saint. This man was extremely powerful. During the three years of demonic calamity, he had used the Lengyue Sword to accomplish many amazing things, and even killed a demon of the same level.
Finally, and most importantly, the operating mode of the ant nest may have been exposed!
"In the Lost Land within the Demon's Nest, there are members of the Ant Nest who have no time to escape. By chance, they are captured by the Demon Clan's strong men. If they are deliberately hunted, they will indeed cause a lot of damage!"
Wu Ming thought about it for a moment and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The demonic chaos in the Eastern Song Dynasty was not small, and several important Dazhous fell. It was also the place that developed the fastest in recent years after the anthills were dispersed.
I never thought that after the demonic tribulation broke out, I would be the first to bear the brunt. Occasionally, some of them would be unlucky enough to be captured. With the strange power of the demonic secrets, it is not difficult to obtain a person's memory and obtain more useful value.
If the upstream and downstream lines of the ant nest were not connected by a single line, the damage caused would be even more terrifying. Even so, the ant nest intelligence network in these states suffered a devastating disaster!
After all, the demon clan implements a scorched earth policy. Regardless of humans or other ethnic groups, as long as they are flesh and blood creatures, they will be treated as blood food!
"Where did Guren go?"
Wu Ming rubbed his eyebrows.
The Battle of the Saints in the Capital three years ago was something he paid close attention to. After all, both Li Twelve Niang and Jin Lin were directly or indirectly related to him.
Such beings openly fought directly in the heart of the human race and the capital of the Eastern Song Dynasty at the critical moment when the demonic calamity broke out. If they had not deliberately suppressed the Holy Power, not a single person in the city would have survived!
What's even more bizarre is that Hongxiu recruited a killer organization that could only operate behind the scenes, and actually dared to break into the imperial city and commit crimes.
This kind of behavior seems to violate the natural laws of living things, but no key clues can be found, which is really puzzling.
Through one-sided and limited clues, Wu Ming could only roughly construct a fragmented picture in his mind.
A certain city defense officer was supposed to check the operation of the formation that day, but he did not come out of the room of a certain concubine he was obsessed with that day. A certain high-ranking official's son was jealous of a certain stunning beauty and got into trouble with others. As a result, his elders were distraught.
No explanation.
All these, all showing the style of red sleeve moves, even caused a lot of jokes in the palace.
For example, the emperor's imperial seal was stolen by his favorite young son that day and was used to smash walnuts. Later, out of fear, he forgot to return it, so that Zhao Yukun did not use the national fortune to quell the civil strife in time.
Although the Red Sleeve Moves did not cause much trouble, and the people who died were all insignificant characters, even worse than the movement on the day Wu Ming escaped from trouble, it showed everywhere that the capital city of the Eastern Song Dynasty was rotten to the core.
Even after experiencing such turmoil, he did not learn any lessons. When Wu Ming got out of trouble three years later, he suffered almost the same fate again.
"Why do you want those ladies to take action in person? The Xuansheng Ancestor has never come forward. It seems that what the Blood Demon said is true. He should really be trapped in a dangerous place outside the territory..."
Wu Ming thought for a long time, frowning. He always felt that he had missed something, but he couldn't remember what key issue he had overlooked.
Buzz!
Suddenly, there was a slight flash of light in his arms. Wu Ming patted it lightly, and the light immediately disappeared, and the sneer on his face disappeared in a flash.
This situation has happened more than once!
Wu Ming was obviously trying to whet the appetite of some people, otherwise he would not have chosen to ignore a jade slip that flashed a dozen times in a row.
After thinking about it for a long time, Wu Ming left the secret room and prepared to rush to the next place without clearing up many clues.
In fact, you don't need to do this kind of thing yourself, but everyone around you basically has their own tasks, and there is really no manpower available. His cultivation level has reached a bottleneck, and he has nothing to do, so he has to go into battle personally.
Buzz!
Half an hour later, before leaving the city, there was movement in a jade messenger in Wu Ming's arms. This time, he did not ignore it, but chose to check it.
"So urgent?"
Wu Ming raised his eyebrows, and after thinking for a moment, he summoned the other party, turned around and headed towards the teleportation hall with the Fujing Tianmen in the city.
Two days later, Wu Ming appeared in a main city, surveyed the surrounding area, and determined that there was no threat to his existence. He changed his appearance and went directly to Tongbao Trading Company in the city.
Even though it has been three years since the demonic catastrophe occurred, no one can shake Tongbao Trading Company's status in China. It is truly the number one trading company in the world. All the wise tribes in China from the five countries, four seas and two rivers can trade in the company.
Under the suspicious and scrutinizing eyes of the other party's chief, he went through layers of inspection procedures before he was brought into the top secret room.
The secret room is very simple, and can even be called a leak. There is only a water mirror stone slab about half a person's height suspended on a stone platform with exquisite mysterious runes carved on it.
In the empty secret room, Wu Ming stood in front of the stone platform, using the technique taught by the master to move the stone platform. After the water mirror stone slab flashed with a burst of blue and white light and shadow, a round figure appeared on it, shockingly.
It’s Jia Zhengjing, whom I haven’t seen for many years.
"Haha, Brother Jia has lived a very happy life these past few years!"
Wu Ming looked up and down and said jokingly.
"Haha, first congratulations to Brother Wu for getting out of trouble, we brothers won't say any polite words!"
Jia Zhengjing patted his belly. Although his small eyes were twinkling from time to time, the joy on his face could not be faked, "I thought it would be difficult to contact you this time, but I never thought you would really respond!"
"Tell me, I can make you come to me at this time without fear of being accused of colluding with the fallen demons. I think it's no small matter!"
Wu Ming smiled.
"Hey, those grandsons only know these dirty tricks!"
Jia Zhengjing sneered, with disdain on his face. He quickly put away his smile and said with a serious face, "I have no choice but to come to you this time. A batch of hidden treasures from Guangyuan Zhai have been robbed!"
"For you to come to me so eagerly and not hesitate to use the secret agent of Sihai Trading Company to act, I think it must be something extraordinary!"
Wu Ming raised his eyebrows. He knew that Jia Zhengjing's pursuit was to make Guangyuanzhai stronger and bigger. It was unrealistic to surpass Tongbao Trading Company, but he had to become independent. He changed the subject and said, "I remember,
I arranged a good hand for you three years ago, is it not easy for him to use it?"
“Very easy!”
Jia Zhengjing nodded, his fat face wrinkled up, "But this matter happened through his hands, and the two semi-saint strong men I could send to deal with it have also fallen. The only thing that can be determined is that he
Still alive!"
Wu Ming's pupils shrank, he didn't expect the matter to be so serious.
Come to think of it, if this were not the case, Jia Zhengjing would never easily use the emergency contact information and risk exposure to find him.
"You must be very clear about his identity. Can you confirm whether someone is secretly planning to attack Guangyuanzhai to induce me to appear?"
Wu Ming said cautiously.
Once bitten by a snake, he will be afraid of well ropes for ten years and cannot tolerate being careless.
"You can be sure, because this happened three months ago!"
Jia Zhengjing said firmly.
"Three months, you can bear it quite well!"
Wu Mingyang pondered for a while, nodded and said, "I agree to this matter. You will send the detailed file as soon as possible. Even if I can't take action, I will help you solve it. Let's talk about another matter!"
"How do you know there's another thing?"
Jia Zhengjing said in surprise.
"With your financial resources, you may not be able to hire stronger helpers, and you can also arrange this matter more securely, but you still want to find me. I'm afraid that in addition to the loss of the valuable treasure, someone is secretly suppressing Guangyuanzhai, forcing you to come forward.
!”
How could Wu Ming not know Fatty Jia's virtues, he said calmly.
"Hey!"
Jia Zhengjing smiled awkwardly, rubbed his hands, and said with a sad face, "You are really right. Originally, it would have been normal, but this time it was the Supreme Elder of the Taiqing Palace who spoke personally. I have to obey!"
"Xu Yuanlao Niubi?"
Wu Ming was stunned.
If there is any intersection with Tianpin sects such as Taiqing Palace, it is this Taoist Master of Xuyuan!
Moreover, a proud man like Jia Zhengjing, who has strong financial resources and an extraordinary background, has to bow his head. It is thought that only a being like this can do it.
"That's right, but he didn't say it clearly, but as long as he talks a little bit, countless disciples and disciples will tear me down to the bone!"
Jia Zhengjing made a complaint and said, "Brothers, I have no choice but to do so."
"Okay, I understand, Luo Wuhua should be the one who invited this person!"
Wu Ming said carelessly.
"Brother, please don't take it seriously. At least give someone a reply. Anyway, I brought this to you!"
Jia Zhengjing breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that Wu Ming had always been smart, and since he knew who the real owner was, he would never suffer a loss, so he just gave some instructions.
"I have my own sense of discretion, please send the dossier as soon as possible!"
Wu Ming waved his hand and ended the conversation, but a cold look rose between his eyebrows, "It seems that that thing is more important to the Luo family, or Taiqing Palace, than imagined!"
The communication talisman that flashed one after another before was the work of Luo Wuhua. Unexpectedly, Wu Ming ignored it and the other party actually invited Taoist Master Xu Yuan to indirectly put pressure on Jia Zhengjing.
Now think about it, the only crystal coffin obtained from the Bone Eagle Dragon Tail in Haihuang Island!
