Inside the imperial city, the eyes of "Ice Soul Yuanci Master" widened, "It won't be too late, hurry up!"
In an instant, a large number of magic weapons flew out of the imperial city, and the light enveloped the human form. They were all cultivators who were following orders.
The three streets from Anyefang to Xishi are full of mechanical beasts. They move quickly along the walls and eaves of the square.
They came from all directions. At first there were just a few dozen, but soon they turned into hundreds. By the time they got close to the West Market, there were already tens of thousands of them, completely surrounding the eight gates of the West Market.
The Taiping Canal that runs through it is a canal that connects the Luoshui River. In addition to docking outside the city, foreign fleets often have small boats that can enter the city.
There are countless ports in Xiayi, among which two cities are the most important.
In the West Market, thousands of boats docked in ten days, and tens of thousands of laborers, porters, and boatmen settled here. Forty-to-five percent of the materials distributed in the city's 108 squares were obtained from here.
This is a real busy city, still lively at the moment, but the feeling is completely different.
Chi Chi Chi Chi…
A magneto-magnetic rat flew over the eaves and swam on the rafters very cleverly. However, the moment it approached the beam, it was shattered by a flying knife.
The moment it was shattered, a figure appeared, it was Wei Hao.
Without any hesitation at all, he immediately ran away the moment he was exposed.
Wei Hao was like a cannonball, leaping towards the Taiping Canal. This time, he confused many machine beasts.
A large number of machine cats and dogs were making chirping noises on both sides of the Taiping Canal. The growling machine dogs wandered anxiously on the shore, but they did not jump in after all.
"Brother Zhengyang!"
"Let's look at the poor methods!"
The person who spoke was none other than "Zhengyang Whale Fishing Guest". He stepped out and suddenly there was a straight hook in his hand. The fishing line was connected to it, and a bamboo pole was used as a fishing rod. With a slight flick, the straight hook rushed towards Taiping.
Go away.
The winding fishing line was originally only a foot long, but then suddenly stretched for dozens of miles.
The straight hook is even more subtle, as if it has a target in the water, heading straight towards the West Market.
At this time, Wei Hao was swimming quickly in the Taiping Canal. He tried to leave through the water gate, but unfortunately he could not. The strange power was also attached to the water gate. If he wanted to leave, he had to rely on his own strength to push open the Qianjun Water Gate.
At the same time, you have to avoid being discovered.
Wei Hao used the water of the canal to move quickly. After a few breaths, he had already traveled through Fang City and returned to the vicinity of Anyefang.
But when he was about to leave Taiping Canal, he suddenly felt a subtle murderous aura.
Wow!
Jumping up, Wei Hao ejected directly from the water, and the moment he landed on the shore, he drew his sword and slashed.
cut!
Ding!
A straight fishhook stabbed towards me at an unknown moment.
“Zhengyang whale fishermen!”
Wei Hao's eyes were like lightning, revealing the owner of this fishhook.
In front of the Ouchi Tongjian, the face of "Zhengyang Whale Fishing Guest" changed. He knew that he had also been exposed, and Wei Hao had completely remembered the Taoist aura.
As long as Wei Hao escapes, he will be able to take revenge on him in the future based on this Taoist aura.
In the process of cultivation and inquiry, there will inevitably be fights, but these are people with great supernatural powers. As long as they are not helpless, they will definitely go all out to avoid future troubles whenever they seize the opportunity.
"Brother Yuanci Dao——"
"Don't worry! I will never let this beast go!"
With a loud shout, the "Ice Soul Yuanci Master" squeezed a seal in his hand, and the densely packed machine beasts actually condensed to form an even bigger machine beast.
Wei Hao noticed this mutation and immediately sneered: "Compared to the mechanical golden dragon of the 'Dragon Tomb', it is far different!"
When she heard that Wei Hao had finally been discovered, the Queen Mother actually came to Tongjian in person. She looked angrily and scolded: "Capture Wei Hao and you will be rewarded! If the capture is unsuccessful, you will all be punished——"
The sharp tone made people hear her deep anger, but similarly, many senior servants and supervisors could hear the fear in the Queen Mother's heart.
Because he was an old man, he was familiar with the Queen Mother. Although the Queen Mother at this time was scary, she was also very pitiful.
It's because of fear that I can show my teeth and claws like this.
"Order the Inspector to go and kill Wei Hao!"
When the Queen Mother left the palace, she gave an order to the eunuch Helian Wujiu. The eunuch quickly agreed. However, when she went to the office of the Xuntianjian, she met Li Mo, the warehouse supervisor of Jiuchongcang, who suddenly stopped Helian.
Wu Jiu, then asked: "The chief eunuch is an old man in the palace. Now the two saints rely heavily on the 'Ten Immortal Slaves'. Over time, they will become disgusted and abandon the chief eunuch. It will be just around the corner!"
Just around the corner?!
Hearing what Li Mo said, Helian Wujiu became furious and scolded: "Prisoner Li Cang wants to alienate the royal master and servant?!"
"I am the son of Mr. Li Xianggong. After the five punishments of the 'Gaotao clan', now my master is dead. I can only save myself to live in peace. The eunuch is like me, so why not join hands and do something big! The current situation is turbulent, and the six departments are paying tribute.
Scholars are like dolphins and dogs, imprisoned inside and outside the palace walls. If we seize the opportunity, both you and I will have a bright future!"
At first, Helian Wujiu just thought it was a fart and wanted to call him to pull him away, but suddenly his mind changed and his heart moved.
At this time, Wei Hao has not been captured and brought to justice. It can be said that whoever captures Wei Hao has made a great contribution.
Helian Wujiu had a hunch, how could a human hero like Wei Hao be manipulated by a mere villain?
He is a slave of the emperor, and he is not a good person. But precisely because he is a villain, he hates other villains even more.
If you cannot use power for personal gain, it is because you are not the one who uses power for personal gain.
"Li Cangjian, you might as well say it more clearly. The Za family has little education, so some words are not explained clearly, so I don't understand them well."
How come Helian Wu Jiu has no ambition? If the royal dogs were to be ranked, why wasn't he ranked first?
Ten dogs descended from the sky, each one more arrogant than the other, which really makes people speechless.
"Li dares to assert that today's roundup of Wei Xiangxiang will not be successful. By then, the Queen Mother will be furious. Anyone who participates in the roundup will be reprimanded for being incompetent. Superintendent, this is an opportunity to take power. If you can provide advice and make plans, even if
If you can't hold Wei Xiangxiang, at least... you have the right in hand."
"What right?"
"military power."
"Bing... military power?!"
The frightened Helian Wujiu suddenly became vigilant again. Is this Li Mo here to test him? Could he be a member of the Queen Mother?
But Li Mo seemed to have seen through his thoughts: "Li dared to establish the document, with the intention of ensuring the safety of the eunuch, and just wanted to make progress and retreat together."
Helian Wujiu didn't waste any words: "If not, now!"
"I think so too!"
Li Mo was really straightforward. He had already prepared pen and paper and started writing directly to show his sincerity in making progress together.
"Supervisor Li Cang, I didn't expect you to be one of Mr. Li's servants..."
It is profound and chilling. You must know that when Wei Hao assassinated Li Huairou in the court, Li Huairou took out the "Book of Gods".
Even if there is only one article, it is also the "Book of Conferring Gods", which is the most precious treasure of Taizu Emperor Dayu. Anyone who dares to disobey will be made a god and then beheaded.
Thousands of miles away, it's all a matter of instant kill.
This is the power of the Human Emperor, no ghost or god can compete with it.
But I never expected that the servant Li Huairou... would have something that even the royal family didn't have.
"What if Wei Hao dies today..."
"Oh, the cultivators in the city are all well-dressed and inactive people. If they have righteousness, they can just do it. But if they have selfish desires, they will be captured by Wei Xiangxiang, and they will have no courage at all. After a long battle,
Wei Xiang must die, but unfortunately, this is Xiayi."
Since it is Xiayi, it cannot be treated as a city and be besieged as long as a large army does not attack the territory.
There are millions of mouths to eat. What kind of daily rations of firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and tea can be missing?
Three days and five days can be tolerated, but ten days and a half, I am afraid someone will starve to death.
The most virtuous place in the capital city, the largest city in China, the occurrence of such tragic and tragic events will corrupt the practice and destroy the merits.
Therefore, Li Mo decided that if Wei Hao could be found and killed quickly, there would be no problem.
Once it is delayed for too long and we cannot win quickly, civil strife will inevitably occur.
This is the normal state of confrontation between two armies. What's more, it's not a confrontation between two armies now, it's just about arresting one person.
When they can still survive, it is okay for the people in the city to make sacrifices and shed a few tears for Mr. Li; but when the whole family is forced to starve to death, what does Mr. Li mean?
Xianggong Li is a piece of shit!
As long as you are not too stupid, you can understand how to understand people's hearts.
As for the prime ministers in the court, if there are too many "grievances", the blame will eventually be placed on their heads, not the women in the palace.
To put it more bluntly, if Li Huairou dies, at least the position of the provincial minister... will be vacant, right?
Why waste your progress for a dead colleague?
no need.
After figuring out the pros and cons, Helian Wujiu suddenly asked: "Where does the military power mentioned by Li Cangjian... come from?"
"Li has something to ask the chief supervisor first."
"But it doesn't matter!"
"Can the 'Ten Immortal Slaves' leave the imperial city?"
"Yes, I can, but if I leave the Imperial City, I will be in danger of falling, so I have no intention of leaving the Imperial City."
"It seems that it is related to the location of 'Ding Town'."
"..."
Suddenly shocked, Helian Wujiu didn't expect that Li Mo even knew all this. At this time, he recollected what Li Mo said after meeting him.
Re-examining the weight after "Gao Tao".
Five punishments?
Helian Wujiu pondered in his mind and became more and more fearful, but this fear made him very excited because he knew that people like Li Mo must be capable that others cannot.
"The chief eunuch, please be patient and don't be impatient. Please act according to your orders first. If it is not possible to capture Wei Hao today, the chief eunuch will propose a plan to the two saints."
After saying this, Li Mo took out a document and handed it to Helian Wujiu, "This is a countermeasure. After today, the eunuch will weigh it and take action."
Really thoughtful.
Helian Wujiu looked obviously stunned. He didn't expect that Li Mo had planned this.
After all, once you return to the palace, you may not have the chance to contact Li Mo for discussion.
Prepare countermeasures in advance and think about them before choosing, so that you are prepared.
After doing this, Li Mo left directly, coming suddenly and leaving decisively.
Seeing him acting like this, Helian Wujiu couldn't help but have a thought in his mind: Could it be that Wei Xiangxiang really couldn't be caught today?!
There were tens of thousands of horses, countless machine beasts, and various magic weapons...
You know, if you want to make the magic weapon show its power in Xiayi on weekdays, you don't have to think about it. There are not many opportunities at all.
However, after the "alarm bells ring", the belief in eliminating demons and defending the Tao is strengthened, and the national destiny is consumed to wait for the opportunity. This is the perfect moment for cultivators to show their magical powers.
All the masters from the sects supported by the imperial court are eager to try.
And what about Wei Hao?
Helian Wujiu knew that he had "the arrogance of a martyr", but now he was rebellious and had no official prestige or fame. In this capital city, there were not many people who shared the same hatred as him.
The presence of millions of people here is pressure, suppressing his "martyr arrogance."
Helian Wujiu himself practiced the "Ya Yin". He reprimanded hundreds of officials under the emperor's order, which exerted invisible pressure. At this moment, his power increased even more, as if as soon as he opened his mouth, he was one person inferior to ten thousand people.
above.
The advantage of the emperor's slaves is so obvious.
"Is it really possible to let Wei Hao run away?"
On the way to Qianniuwei's government office, Helian Wujiu kept doubting and speculating, and then he waited for news in Qianniuwei's government office.
During the tea time, a messenger who had sent a message hurriedly returned to the government office, and then saluted Helian Wujiu. Just as he was about to speak, Helian Wujiu asked: "Did you catch Wei Hao?!"
"Reporting to the eunuch, the Wei thieves are really fierce. They have killed thirty "human immortals" in a row. The fighting is fierce now on the south bank of Taiping Canal. Our soldiers are many and powerful, but they can't use them. We lost a brigade commander..."
"You fart-"
Helian Wujiu felt veins popping out on his forehead, "How can he still kill cultivators and defeat the brigade commander when his magical power is suppressed?!"
"Superintendent, I am in a humble position and don't know the situation. I am just summoning..."
"How could this be so! Ridiculous -"
After being furious, Helian Wujiu was suddenly shocked: Isn't everything just as Li Mo expected?!
If so...
His heart suddenly beat wildly, and he quickly asked the people around him to step back, and then hurriedly opened the document. As expected, it was full of countermeasures, writing down how to deal with many possible incidents.
But one thing is that no matter which method of response is adopted, Wei Hao will not die and will escape.
Helian Wujiu's face trembled when he saw it, but after reading it, he was so excited that his breathing became rapid. According to Li Mo's plan, it is indeed possible to control the military power, and it is quite considerable...
For a moment, a very ridiculous thought popped up in my mind: Wei Elephant, Wei Elephant, you were a hero at that time, you are just a rat, how can you trap you?!
As a slave of the emperor, Helian Wujiu actually began to pray for his master's enemies, praying that the enemy would have great supernatural powers and be invincible, and then escape unscathed...
But maybe he felt that it was a bit excessive, and Helian Wujiu thought in his mind that if both sides suffered losses, that would probably be the best.
At this time, Wei Hao, who was holding a long spear, was already heading towards Zhuque Street from Ankangfang. Although the arrows above his head were like locusts, at this time, he really felt as if he was in an uninhabited land, walking through the streets and alleys, completely helpless.
