Tianyong City, an important town in Hezhou in northern Xinjiang during the Song Dynasty, borders Taihang and Beijin to the north. The sky wall runs through the east and west, and the folk customs are fierce and warlike.
Wu Ming walked slowly on the bustling streets, his expression calm, not at all as excited as when he first came. At first, he was still planning to break through the innate, but now he is a second-level grandmaster!
Wu Ming, who was walking and walking, seemed to enjoy this rare relaxation. As he strolled leisurely, he passed many stalls and shops. Behind him, Ao Liang transformed into a pink-faced young man, following him cautiously.
"Master, if I stay for such a long time, if my father uses the secret technique of blood to trace it, he will probably be able to locate me. It doesn't matter if Xiaolong is exposed. If the master is put in danger, Xiaolong will never be able to redeem himself!"
Seeing that Wu Ming had no intention of stopping, Ao Liang said with a bitter face.
"Oh, are you afraid that I am in danger, or are you worried about whether Ao Ye will come back or not, or are you worried about yourself?"
Wu Ming didn't even look back.
"Master, Xiaolong..."
Ao Liang shivered, and he had to express his loyalty in a hurry. He had not forgotten how ruthless the master in front of him was.
scale.
"Don't worry, with the suppression of my Dragon Seal, across the state border, he can only roughly sense your position, but cannot lock the exact direction!"
Wu Ming waved his hands indifferently and ignored Ao Liang's little thoughts. Just as he was walking, the jade slip in his arms suddenly shook. After taking it out for inspection, he changed direction with a smile on his face.
Ao Liang had no choice but to follow Wu Ming and follow him until he reached an inconspicuous courtyard.
Tuk Tuk!
There were two long and one short knocks on the door, and soon a pretty, tall and graceful girl opened the courtyard door. After seeing Wu Ming, she didn't say much, led the two people in, and then closed the courtyard.
Door.
"Qu Ying, meet the prince!"
The girl put it on her face, and her appearance changed slightly. It was Qu Ying.
"Okay, no need to be polite!"
Wu Ming waved his hand, and with a flash of light all over his body, the power of the Spiritual Illusion Bone Changing Technique was removed, and he returned to his original appearance. He glanced around with satisfaction and said, "Not bad, I am much more cautious than before."
"It's all good teaching from the prince!"
Qu Ying led the two of them into the main hall, and while serving tea and pouring water, another soldier came in, but it was Peng Chao.
Today's Peng Chao is more stable than before, and he has already developed a unique style. After seeing Wu Ming, he immediately bowed down, held a bag in his hands and offered it: "Your Majesty, this is
It was stored here by Sixth Master Jia before, saying that it is a treasure you urgently need. In addition, we have also collected some, but time is tight, and we don’t use much of those things. I don’t know if they are enough for the prince’s needs!”
"No problem!"
Wu Ming took the bag, glanced at it, and nodded with satisfaction.
It is filled with a kind of mineral called iron wall stone. Because of its special material, it can only be used to solidify the tool making mold. Previously, at dusk in the Gobi Desert in Liangzhou, the Thousand Breath Treasure Gourd had made unusual movements, but time was tight and could not be allowed to move.
He collected it alone, so he summoned Jia Zhengjing and asked him to help collect it.
"how?"
Seeing Peng Chao's expression of hesitation, Wu Ming sent the bag into Longyi Road.
"Your Majesty, Yuan Fei wants to return to the team!"
Peng Chao hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said.
Wu Ming's eyes flashed with surprise, and he frowned. A young man with arms reaching his knees, a burly figure, bold and a bit arrogant flashed in his mind!
It has been five years since Yuan Fei left the sect, and Wu Ming has deliberately drawn a clear line. After all, there is a family behind the other party. Unlike other disciple soldiers, there are only a few people in the family. It is easy to arrange, and most of them are veterans.
The orphans below.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we haven't contacted him here. He met Hu Lai through a sect exchange meeting and begged him to send a letter to Your Majesty!"
Peng Chao thought he was angry and quickly explained.
According to the rules set by Wu Ming, there can only be one light and one dark between the two lines, and only the respective team leaders can know the contact information. Yuan Fei is not within the system set by Wu Ming, and even if he wants to contact him, there is no way.
"Tell Hu Lai not to have contact with Yuan Fei in the future!"
Wu Ming said coldly.
"yes!"
Peng Chao's heart skipped a beat and he responded quickly.
"How did Xu Tuo's mission in the Taihang Mountains go?"
Wu Ming did not ask any further questions and changed the topic.
"Most of it has been completed, but there are a few things that are extremely rare. Even if there are spiritual stones, it is difficult to collect them. Jia Sixth Master seems to have encountered difficulties as well. There has been no news since the last delivery."
Peng Chao suppressed his doubts and said respectfully.
At that time, Yuan Fei was the first to enter the sect to practice. Although he lost contact, he always had a harmonious relationship with his brothers. Wu Ming valued him very much, but now he seems a little unkind.
Little did he know that Wu Ming had his own considerations. There was a large family behind Yuan Fei. No matter someone threatened him behind his back or he changed his mind, this friendship would inevitably be wiped out. Wu Ming just didn't want to face this situation, so he chose a quick knife.
Cut the tangled knot once and for all.
Nowadays, there are only six or seven soldiers from the royal family who can have direct contact with Wu Ming. The rest have gone underground, hiding their names, laundering their identities through various methods, and wandering around the states of the Song Dynasty.
If they weren't still a little weak in cultivation, Wu Ming was determined to send them to various countries to practice and prepare for the future.
Of course, looking at the current development trends, this day is not far away!
"Um!"
Wu Ming nodded slightly. No wonder Jia Zhengjing never replied. It seemed that he was probably tripped up by something.
It's just that now I'm entangled with everything and I really can't get away from it, otherwise I would definitely have to help Yili.
"How is the matter of observing the earth's stars completed?"
Wu Ming changed the subject and asked.
"The news came last night that the target has been obtained and is now being held in a secret place, waiting for the prince to be punished!"
Peng Chao said.
"You guys go down, I'll go to the secret room!"
Wu Ming waved his hand and went straight to the back hall. He found a secret room with ease and looked around, looking satisfied.
Although they adopted a laissez-faire approach and allowed things to develop, seeing that the rules they set could be followed, it was clear that the little beasts had put their heart and soul into it.
Ao Liang was guarding the door outside, while Qu Ying and Peng Chao were sorting out the recent dossier information. After Wu Ming entered the secret room, he closed the restriction and took out a brown-yellow earth-like gourd half as tall as a man, which was the Thick Breath Treasure Gourd.
Compared with the one in Hidden Dragon Abyss, this baby's light is completely restrained, with not much breath coming out. At a glance, it is extremely inconspicuous, and may even be ignored as an ordinary sculpture.
But if you look closely, it is not difficult to find that although the cracks that were originally clearly visible on it have not been completely eliminated, they are wrapped by a layer of stone skin that looks like patina. It is a layer of natural material that can be seen but cannot be touched.
No light!
"Master, Loach is hungry!"
Just as he was about to put the stubborn stone into it, the loach suddenly poked his head out from his wrist and said naively.
"good!"
Wu Ming's eyes flashed with pity, and he took out a jade bottle, with a broad bean-sized and blood-gold elixir everywhere, which was swallowed by the loach.
Then he saw that there was an extra layer of blood in the mottled gray light around his body, and his originally weak aura increased sharply at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye.
"Master, Loach is still hungry!"
Loach said pitifully.
"snort!"
Wu Ming tapped the loach's little head, and the latter spit out the letter unwillingly, retracted his wrist, and turned into a jade bracelet.
If you look carefully, it is not difficult to find that there is a blood-colored thread inside the jade bracelet, which flickers on and off.
"It's really a bit of tofu with brine, one thing will bring down another. The blood poison that even half-saints are disgusted by turns out to be a great tonic for loaches!"
Wu Ming shook his head with emotion, opened the bag, and put all the stubborn stones into the Thick Breath Gourd.
The strange poison that poisoned many of the royal family's children in Chang'an in the mid-Tang Dynasty was a mixture of loach, blood poison, and the power of the withered holy soul. It was a soft mixture of three powers. Even a semi-sage doctor would have a hard time distinguishing it.
come out.
It was precisely because of this that the royal family of the Mid-Tang Dynasty could not send out many strong men to kill him out of righteousness. Otherwise, no matter how strong Lu Jiuyuan was, it would be difficult to protect him and escape.
Of course, accidents are always inevitable. Unexpectedly, the little girl Li Luo was poisoned, but she recovered surprisingly well, which saved her a lot of trouble and a little guilt.
His heart is as stone as Wu Ming, but he will not change his original intention just because of a little girl.
Moreover, in such dangerous situations, there is not much to worry about. After all, even the daughter of the Sword Immortal like Li Wenzhao is involved in the conspiracy!
Buzz!
What surprised Wu Ming was that after swallowing the stubborn stone from the iron wall, the Thick Breath Treasure Gourd exhaled a yellowish brilliance for a while, then returned to normal without any movement.
"What can you see?"
Wu Ming asked as his mind sank into the sea of consciousness.
"This treasure has absorbed the Black Stone Mountain, or in other words, it is steadily absorbing the remaining power of the sky demon Cang Yue, as well as the inexplicable rules of heaven and earth. Even with the power of my holy soul, I cannot deduce what its final change will be.
At this stage, we can only say that this treasure already has the foundation of the holy way, the foundation of the Taoist weapon before it has been far away!"
Ku Ye said in a deep voice.
"never mind!"
Wu Ming didn't think too much. His consciousness was in the sea of consciousness. He glanced at the lotus lantern that was several times brighter than before, and couldn't help but smile knowingly.
As expected of his cleverness before, he took the risk to take away the measuring ruler. Although it was just a damaged body of the holy instrument, it was a great tonic to the lotus lantern, even if it was not as good as the recovery level of the blessing from heaven and earth.
, also reached about one-fifth.
This is just damage, if it is complete... Thinking of this, Wu Ming couldn't help but cast his eyes on the thick breath treasure gourd, and immediately shook his head. Since the two ladies of Lian Deng didn't absorb this treasure before, they probably won't absorb it in the future.
After roughly tidying up and making sure that nothing was missing, Wu Ming left the secret room, explained to Qu Ying and Peng Chao, then left Tianyong City and went straight to an inconspicuous mountain outside the city, where a temporary building was built underground.
Secret land.
"Meet the prince!"
Zheng Yingcai, a local police officer who was as thin as an old farmer next door, was the first to kneel down and bow to Wu Ming.
The remaining six people were none other than the martial slaves headed by Chang Shu, the former great master. There was also a tall, thin, middle-aged man with dark skin who was imprisoned inside. His breath was sluggish, but his expression was as sinister as an eagle. He was staring coldly at Wu Ming.
.
Wu Ming was slightly surprised. He didn't expect this person to be in such a situation and still have such a high spirit. (To be continued)
