Three women wearing white robes with different words embroidered on them were gathered together, talking about something unknown.
At this time, another woman in white robe emerged from the ground.
"How's it going? Is the mother-in-law dead?"
Among the three people, a woman with spring embroidered on her body asked.
The woman with the character Xia tattooed on her body nodded.
Seeing this, another woman said: "It seems that Gu An's strength is stronger than we thought."
"Let's just activate the formation. There shouldn't be anyone with particularly strong mental power among them."
"Didn't the Tricky Mother know how to sing lullabies? Then why didn't Gu An fall for the trick?"
"As long as the mental power reaches the level of perception, the mother's music will basically not be hypnotized. Our formation must be solid and high-level to resist it.
He has not practiced the Art of Subduing Gods, so it is impossible for him to reach the realm of solidification at such a young age."
The other three people pondered for a moment and nodded.
After looking at each other, they burrowed into the ground.
After a while, four people appeared in four different directions outside Hushang Town.
Making seals in their hands, the four women's bodies twisted and turned into four different trees.
An invisible energy ripple emitted from the top of the tree and shot over Hushang Town.
The four invisible ripples meet at one point and expand outward, forming an energy shield that envelopes the entire Hushang Town.
…
In Hushang Town.
In a daze, Ding Shichang felt as if he was riding a horse. The bumps along the way made him faint.
It seems that someone is still calling me.
"My lord! My lord, wake up!"
Ding Shichang slowly opened his eyes, and the scene in front of him changed from blurry to clear.
Familiar faces appeared in front of him.
"My lord is awake, my lord is awake!"
A team member who was caring for Ding Shichang saw that Ding Shichang finally woke up and shouted excitedly to Gu An and Yang Ling who were talking in the distance.
Gu An and Yang Ling looked at each other and soon came to Ding Shichang's side.
"Sir, do you feel any discomfort in your body?"
Yang Ling asked.
"Just, your head feels a little dizzy?"
Ding Shichang shook his head, sat up straight, looked at Gu An and others, and frowned.
"What's wrong with me? Didn't I just talk to you? You asked me if I heard singing?"
Gu An calmed down and told Ding Shichang what happened.
Before, after Gu An killed the spider woman, he searched for the black and red beads on his body for a while, but could not find the black and red beads.
So he burned his body directly to see if he could get yin energy or other harvests.
However, the result made Gu An quite disappointed. Until the whole thing turned into white smoke, there was nothing gained.
After walking around the yard a few more times, they returned to where Yang Ling and the others were gathering.
"Psychic hypnosis? You mean I was hypnotized, but you weren't? It's impossible, your mental power is so strong?"
As he said this, Ding Shichang seemed to have remembered something.
"No, when we were in Zhennan City, the conflict between you and Huang Zikai seemed to be because of the intermediate formation marking pen. You can't really engrave formations, right?"
Gu An smiled shyly: "To be honest with you, sir, I originally wanted to give it a try, so I borrowed a few books about formation imprinting from Manager Wu.
I took it back and studied it for a while. Perhaps because of my subordinate's naturally strong mental strength, I found that I could actually understand what was written on it.
I just practiced for a while and got some results.
After returning from Zhennan City, I found that I could already imprint primary formation patterns."
Hearing this, Ding Shichang and others were stunned.
Dare you give it a try and successfully carve the formation patterns without the guidance of a master?
Monster... this idea came to everyone's mind.
Ding Shichang was silent for a moment, put his right fist in front of his mouth and coughed dryly: "Ahem! Those who know the spiritual power of lullaby are probably created by the Wu Li Cult.
Now that you've solved it, don't worry about the previous details.
Now, let’s each talk about what we found in the town.”
Immediately afterwards, Yang Ling and the other two Xiaoqi told each other the information they and others had collected from their team members.
After a moment, Ding Shichang sighed: "There is no one there, and I don't know if the people in Hushang Town have moved to another place, or have been harmed by the evil spirits of Wu Li Cult."
While Ding Shichang was lying on the ground, Yang Ling and others had already searched the entire town.
It was very quiet and nothing unusual was noticed.
As for the strange fragrance, they couldn't smell it before, let alone now.
"Being so quiet is not the way of the Wu-Li Church. I estimate that the Wu-Li Church will be doing something big tonight, so everyone should rest in advance and take turns to watch the night tonight."
Ding Shichang immediately ordered: "Yang Ling, send a team out to pull our horses in to avoid being killed by Wu Lijiao at night."
"yes!"
Yang Ling responded, turned around and ordered his team members to go outside and bring the horses in.
Ding Shichang thought that Gu An really wanted to know information about the military department, so he took him aside and explained it to him in detail.
"Actually, except for resources, the Military Department is similar to the outside world. Our Suppressing Evil Division and the Military Mansion are naturally at odds with each other, and it's the same inside.
So when you go there, even if there is no clear boundary, you will automatically be placed on the side of the Suppression of Evil Division."
Gu An didn't want to continue this topic, but when he saw Ding Shichang talking about it himself, he remembered his previous questions and slowly spoke.
"Sir, can I ask you a question?"
"What's the question? Ask it."
"It stands to reason that since the Ministry of Military Affairs has been established for so many years, there should be a lot of strong people cultivated by it, but why, except for those in the court, I know they are from the Ministry of Military Affairs.
No one from other military departments has heard from them."
Ding Shichang was stunned, then raised his head and thought for a moment: "I don't know the specifics of this question, but I seem to have heard You Qianhu mention it before.
He has been to Shangjing City and was lucky enough to visit the Ministry of Military Affairs.
I heard that when they reach a certain level, the students there will enter a place to practice. That place is quite dangerous, and the death and injury rate is extremely high.
Therefore, after the disciples of the Wu Mansion joined the Military Department and experienced fighting, the gap between them and our members of the Suppression of Evil Division gradually narrowed."
'It's an extremely dangerous place. Now that the demon rift is closed, are there any other extremely dangerous places...' Gu An lowered his eyebrows and pondered.
When Ding Shichang saw Gu An's thoughtful look, he thought he was scared and laughed.
"Don't worry, everyone who can enter the military department is a genius, and His Majesty will not make fun of their lives.
There must be some rules or protective measures when entering, follow the instructions, given your current strength.
After entering, learn more advanced techniques and improve your strength before returning, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Ding Shichang and Gu An were talking, and time passed slowly, but the team that went to lead the horses did not return...
