The bonfire gradually extinguished the last remaining heat, almost turning into ashes, as if no more firewood had been added for a long time. Peak 23S.
Fastest update
In the shadow of the dim cave, there seemed to be a figure looming, with pale golden light and shadow appearing one after another.
call!
I don’t know how long it took, but a breeze suddenly picked up, and then swept away the smoke and dust, hovering around the figure. There were a lot of sparks in the embers, illuminating Wu Ming’s strong and thin face!
In the eyes that opened and closed, there was a frightening light that flashed away. The pale golden robe suddenly disappeared, and a layer of colorless light loomed on the exposed skin.
"It's finally done!"
Wu Ming suddenly stood up and shook his body with satisfaction.
Qi fills the whole body, a second-level Qi warrior!
After leaving Xue Phosphorus Slope and looking for a place to heal his injuries, his cultivation breakthrough came naturally.
In addition to having a solid foundation beyond imagination, he also had successive battles that made him more skillful in the use of his internal power.
Even after his physical body was strong and his internal energy surged, he felt no discomfort at all.
And the martial intent that is also far beyond the same level makes it possible that after the breakthrough in cultivation, he is not unfamiliar with his own martial arts skills. He only mastered the changes after a few sets of punches.
"I thought that with all kinds of treasures to defend myself, even if I couldn't run rampant in Youxia Ridge, my life would not be a problem, but I didn't expect that just at the foot of the mountain, I would encounter a life and death crisis. It can be said that I was lucky enough to escape this time. Same mistake
Never do it again."
Wu Ming was exhausted. Looking back on the previous scenes, he knew exactly where he had gone wrong.
Even though he has always been surrounded by powerful enemies, the opponent is either a genius or even a Grandmaster-level Demon Emperor. Although he has saved the day, it still makes him a little careless.
But at the same time, I am lucky that I am at the foot of the mountain. If I were caught in the same dangerous situation on the mountain, my skin would be peeled off, or I would even die without a chance to survive!
Examine myself three times!
This is the way of practice that Wu Ming upholds!
"It's time to see what's in the ring!"
Wu Ming first took out the Yao Man Na Ring, which was as big as a bracelet, to check it out.
There is not a single spiritual stone in the space of a hundred feet, and it is filled with all kinds of refining minerals and weapons.
A rough scan confirmed that they were all spiritual materials for refining mysterious weapons or above. As for the weapons, there were hundreds of various kinds of spiritual weapons, and they were all of high quality. There were twelve top-grade spiritual weapons and eight mysterious weapons.
.
What is quite strange is that, without exception, they are all human weapons, and none of them are demonic.
When I opened the human Najie, I found that on the contrary, within a space of several hundred feet, there were mostly huge monster weapons.
"Oh!"
Wu Ming thought about it briefly and figured out the reason.
As a result of nature, the strong rat barbarians who were trapped here plundered the human military camp and moved the treasures to the Najie where they could be easily hidden.
But later on, the spiritual intelligence was deprived by the rules of Youxia Ridge, and it was no longer possible to access the things inside, and the treasures such as spiritual stones or elixirs were all consumed before.
It can be seen that the rat barbarian lair has never been breached, otherwise there would never be so many treasures left behind.
Come to think of it, if it were so easy, I wouldn't be one of the overlords of the fierce land.
If it weren't for the protection of many treasures, and if there was a chance, the maze-like lair alone would be enough to stop 99% of the treasure hunters.
"Sure enough!"
Three wooden boxes were dug out from the Najie. Two of them were filled with animal skins, but the crude writings were in the barbarian language of animals. The last one contained many bamboo scrolls and brocade silk, as well as two that clearly belonged to the human race.
Copper seal.
Seeing this, Wu Ming couldn't help but feel happy. Although Yao Man had a cruel personality, he admired human culture very much.
The wisdom of the rat barbarians is superior among the barbarians. Judging from the traces of friction on the bamboo slips, they must have been read a lot, and of course they were used as trophies.
In that era, all kinds of strange and obscene skills were far from being as prosperous as they are today, so letters were sent through specially made bamboo slips or brocade silk.
"Hu Ben Lieutenant Seal!"
Wu Ming frowned.
Looking at the official position, it should be an official position in the early Middle Ages. It is equivalent to the Zhonglang General of the Five Kingdoms in ancient and modern times. It is a fourth-rank officer with real power.
Don't look at the fact that Wu Ming is a second-rank King of Wu, but he has no military position, and is far inferior to a fifth-rank officer.
Taking out the Wu Wang Seal and comparing it with it, there is no similarity at all, and the material is completely different.
The other one is engraved with the seal of Wei Wenyu!
As far as he knows, there is no such person, but someone who can become a fifth-grade general is definitely not an unknown person.
Not getting any clue from the seal, Wu Ming turned to the letter on the bamboo slips.
Wu Ming is not unfamiliar with the clumsy and complicated writing style. His predecessor had read poetry and books since he was a child.
I flipped through more than a dozen volumes of bamboo slips in succession, all of which contained orders, requests for help, etc., but only one volume actually contained orders from the emperor!
"Ling Yin... this is the official position of the highest military commander of Chu State during the troubled times of the Seven Kingdoms in the Middle Ages!"
Wu Ming's pupils narrowed and he took a breath.
Ever since I came to China, I have been collecting various biographies whenever I have free time. Although many of the secrets are unclear, anecdotes about famous people are quite familiar.
Although there are many people who have served as Ling Yin, 90% of them are relatives of the Chu Kingdom or their own clan. Only two of them are from other clans, and one of them is named Wu!
When he opened the bamboo slip and saw the signature, Wu Ming was struck by lightning and was speechless for a long time.
"Haha, if this is really the ancestor of the Wu family... that would be so interesting."
After a long time, Wu Ming laughed again and again, suddenly enlightened and figured everything out.
Thinking about all the encounters in Prince Wu's Mansion and Lu Jiuyuan's holy path, why he chose the Wu family is all in this name.
Even though it was just a name, his intuition told him that that was why!
If we talk about luck, what can be better than being one of the seventy-two generals in the Martial Temple, enjoying the incense offerings of hundreds of millions of people, and who can protect the holy way better?
The Martial Arts Temple is the highest sacrificial place created by the combined efforts of all the powerful men of the human race after the Five Kingdoms were established in ancient and modern times.
It is also one of the last obstacles for humans to avoid!
Opposite it is the Confucian Temple, dedicated to Confucian ancestors, the Twelve Sages and Confucian sages of the past dynasties.
When the two are combined into one, it becomes the Tomb of Saints!
The former alone is enough to reflect the respectable status of this person that Wu Ming thinks of!
"Hey, what a man who kills his wife to seek a general, what a Confucian disciple and abandons his disciples, what a Spring and Autumn writing style!"
Thinking of the life and deeds of this holy general, Wu Ming couldn't help but laugh with his hands in his hands, and with a mocking look on his face, he took out his bronze sword and flicked it repeatedly.
In the dull clang, it was like dreaming back to the Middle Ages, one piece after another, one scene after another, flooding into my heart.
When I first saw these two biographical stories, they were just short stories to pass the time out of boredom after dinner.
But now it was about the Wu family. Although it seemed like a conspiracy theory, it was actually placed on him and he couldn't allow him not to think too much!
During the troubled times of the Seven Kingdoms in the Middle Ages, this holy general served many kings. He first studied literature, and later abandoned Confucianism to study military affairs.
In the words of later generations, it is better to call joining the army. From the perspective of Confucianism, isn't it just bullying the master and destroying the ancestors?
And when he killed his wife to seek a general, was it out of righteousness or out of greed for fame and fortune?
Such things will no longer be studied by future generations.
But how can a person with such personality defects and moral deficiencies be ranked among the seventy-two generals in the Martial Temple and be worshiped by hundreds of millions of people?
Examples include ancient, medieval, and modern human dynasties. You can almost see records of a certain concubine who brought disaster to the country and the people, who brought trouble to the government, to the point where the people were in dire straits, evildoers were rampant, and so on.
No matter how charming a woman is, she can confuse the emperor and control the civil and military officials of the dynasty?
The Confucian Spring and Autumn style of writing is overcorrected, is it not polished, or is something added to cover it up?
"Yes or no, it's all about this ancient bronze sword and seal, but the grievances of the Middle Ages are too far away from me, so it's best not to bother me."
Wu Ming's eyelids drooped slightly, his eyes as dark as stars, so quiet that it was chilling.
After thinking about it, he sorted out what he had obtained, and without much delay, Wu Ming continued on his journey.
The two-colored clouds above Youxia Ridge covered the sky and blocked the sun, making it almost impossible to feel the change of time. However, Wu Ming had always grasped the time very accurately. Calculating the time, this breakthrough did not take much time, only two hours.
However, we were besieged in Xue Phosphorus Slope and were on the road for another two days.
One-sixth of the way to closure has passed.
In fact, at the opening of Youxia Ridge, after many battles and explorations, each family has its own map and records of the production of certain treasures. Basically, the goals are quite clear.
But later on, we suffered heavy losses and were unable to make ends meet. Over time, it became a default death mission.
As for the land in the bet, basically not many people care about it, because the relocation has already been started before the start.
As for the displaced people, no one cares about whether their lives are difficult or not!
After more than half a month of rampaging, with almost no obstacles, Wu Ming crossed several dangerous and dangerous places, and finally was about to reach the edge of the ridge.
Along the way, I naturally didn't have much scruples about dangerous places. As for dangerous places, I tried to stay on the outside as much as possible. Even if I took some detours, I didn't want to take any more risks.
It's not that I'm afraid, but that I can't afford to delay, and it's really dangerous.
Only the ferocious land that we just broke out of was a direct crossing, because the famous overlord-level ferocious creatures in it acted alone and did not live in groups.
For Wu Ming, the threat was greatly reduced. Even if he did encounter him, he would probably leave his life-saving talisman and leave.
"This is the red leaf forest, the most dangerous place under the mountain!"
At this time, Wu Ming stood in front of a steep slope, looking at the mountains and forests above that were as red as fire, but also red and scary, like blood, with a solemn expression.
He really wanted to go around it if it wasn't necessary.
But there are special treasures in the red leaf forest that allow warriors from the lower reaches of the mountain to pass through the barrier and enter the upper reaches of the mountain.
Generally speaking, human warriors in the early years would choose to enter the mountains to fight bloody battles with monsters and barbarians after their strength greatly improved after a breakthrough.
But this woodland is extremely vast, several times larger than the Blood Phosphate Slope, and it is the only dangerous place with rare treasures in the direction of travel.
"According to the records, there are no humanoid monsters inside. The only ones to worry about are the red-ridged gray bear and the blood-eyed tiger!"
Although the two evil creatures were lone menacing creatures, they both had extremely keen senses. Wu Ming did not dare to take them lightly even if they were covered by dragon robes.
After all, the previous jackals could detect it through blood flow and heartbeat, so it was hard to guarantee that the two evil creatures had special means.
After making some preparations, Wu Ming fully equipped all the treasures and made sure nothing was missing before releasing the swifts and rushing into the forest.
Wow!
The vast and majestic mountain forest, as red as blood, rustled in the breeze, as if welcoming or laughing, covering Wu Ming's figure in the blink of an eye!
