Zhao Ling swung her beautiful legs, reached a long table in the center of the hall, put down the street map of Tianyun City in her hand, and said softly: "Mr. Wu."
Wu Yi, who was sitting in the corner not far from her, had always had no sense of presence. He only stood up with a smile when he saw her shouting.
Pang Jian took a look and found that this was a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar, holding a feather fan in his hand.
"Everyone come and take a look."
Wu Yi waved.
Pang Jian, Meng Qiulan, and Yang Yuansen all leaned towards the long table.
The two people who had been standing behind Yang Yuansen did not move, staying in place like cold stones.
"This is the mansion where the trapper ship is anchored."
Wu Yi pointed at the street distribution map with a feather fan, a place circled with pen and ink, and said: "Tianyun City is no different from most cities in our fourth realm. There are four streets in total, connecting the four streets leading to the outside of the city. The city gate is divided into four areas: southeast, northwest and northwest..."
He introduced to the crowd.
Pang Jian leaned over and memorized the entire picture in his mind, trying not to miss any details.
"The East District is the Shangguan family, and there are also the residences of the powerful people attached to the Shangguan family. The ship of Blood Moon is in one of the luxurious mansions, which is here."
"In the West District, ordinary people live. Most of our informants in the city are here."
"The North District is home to many family members who are loyal to the Shangguan family's guests. The guests usually stay in this area when they don't go out."
"The southern district is full of casual cultivators, and there are some shops, restaurants, and inns. Those who come to Qianli Yunze to hunt ferocious beasts, or stop by in Tianyun City, almost all move in this area."
"..."
Wu Yi pointed his finger and told everyone the layout of Tianyun City, saying that the gates in the east area had the strongest defense, while the west area had the weakest gates.
Except for Yang Yuansen who was pretending, the others listened very seriously and were thinking while listening.
Especially Pang Jian, whose piercing eyes seemed to be fixed on that distribution map.
Wu Yi, who played the role of military advisor, couldn't help but be a little surprised when he saw his extremely focused expression.
His thoughts moved and he suddenly smiled and said, "Hong Jian, right?"
Pang Jian nodded.
"This is the Blood Moon Stronghold. If you were our leader, what would you do?"
Wu Yi asked thoughtfully.
Pang Jian, who was thinking about this matter, looked at the structural diagram of Tianyun City on the table and said without raising his head: "It depends on our goal. Is it mainly to seize the animal blood and meat collected by Blood Moon, or to kill the blood?" The moon’s people.”
"Still saving people!"
Meng Qiulan interjected, looking at Pang Jian with dark eyes, thinking: "When this kid saw that I agreed to Yang Yuansen and sent Bai Wei and Baizhi out, he didn't want to save anyone at all. This is really a cold-blooded reality. .”
"Killing is not the purpose, the main purpose is to capture the blood and meat of animals and save people...just by the way." Wu Yi said with a smile.
"Then there's no need to arrange people to block people coming in and out of this mansion and create as much chaos as possible."
"If possible in the early stage, it is best to arrange for our people to poison well water and food."
"When we take action, chaos is best in Tianyun City. If flames rise into the sky and killings and turbulence breaks out in several urban areas, it will be convenient for us to do anything."
After experiencing the hardships in Bagua City, and having frequently communicated with Luo Hongyan recently, Pang Jian has more ideas about such things.
After he finished speaking, he found that everyone was silent and couldn't help but look up.
Meng Qiulan, Zhao Ling, and Yang Yuansen all looked at him strangely.
Wu Yi's eyes lit up.
"That naughty Hong Tai, the nephew he brought out is indeed as sinister and vicious as him!"
Yang Yuansen grinned and snorted coldly: "I just wanted to block the door and lead the people in under the cover of night. You used poison and created chaos to cause riots in the entire Tianyun City. These are all Hongtai's teachings." Right?"
Pang Jian was silent.
Zhao Ling's sharp eyes shone with a strange light. She stared at Pang Jian deeply for a moment and then said, "Mr. Wu, what do you think?"
Wu Yi coughed and said with a slight embarrassment: "I have the same idea as him, there are only some small things that need to be changed. But generally speaking, I have the same idea."
After saying this, he nodded to Pang Jian with some sympathy, and praised: "The guys who came down from the upper realm are indeed more... thoughtful than us."
Meng Qiulan, who had said little, finally came out of her daze and said, "Hong Jian, please go out first."
"Hall Master Meng, can you give me a few more of those pills that can suppress Qi and blood?"
Pang Jian made a request.
"what are you up to?"
Meng Qiulan was stunned.
"I plan to enter Tianyun City and visit the checkpoints in advance. I need to find out the specific situation near the mansion first, because the map is dead, but the people are alive."
Pang Jian replied.
The admiration in Wu Yi's eyes became even stronger.
"Oh fine."
Meng Qiulan gave out a few more wax pills and warned: "You only need to take this medicine when you are near the Wuding Ferry, and the duration is only a quarter of an hour. We are both in the Marrow Cleansing Realm. If the two of them hadn't fought, the other party would have I can’t detect your actual cultivation level, so you don’t have to be so cautious.”
Pang Jian nodded, took the pills and left.
"Mr. Meng, when did he advance to the marrow-cleansing realm? Does he have any combat experience?"
As soon as Pang Jian disappeared, Zhao Ling suddenly asked a barrage of questions: "We must find out whether his marrow cleansing realm can work and whether it will hinder us."
"I should have been promoted half a month ago." Meng Qiulan said.
"You were just promoted? You were arranged by Hong Tai to do hard training elsewhere?"
Zhao Ling shook his head and said disappointedly: "It seems that we can't regard him as a helper who can share the pressure for us. Without much fighting experience, the newly promoted Marrow Cleansing Realm's brain is easy to use and his behavior is cautious. It’s useless. When he really faces those guys from Blood Moon, I just hope he won’t be scared stupid.”
"Hey, it's a pity that Hong Tai died early and didn't bring him to adapt to the cruel battlefield of our dark ghosts." Yang Yuansen laughed a few times and said: "Zhao Ling, you, the youngest in the marrow cleansing realm, should still be able to survive. "
What he meant was that in this battle in Tianyun City, Pang Jian would die more and live less.
…
at dusk.
Tianyun City.
Pang Jian easily entered through the west gate with the cards given by Fan Liang.
Walking in the dirty streets and looking at the small houses piled up with gray stone, bluestone, black stone and white stone, Pang Jian felt deeply.
The common people living in the West District are shabbily dressed, live in small houses, and are busy all day long.
They either sewed clothes and supplied them to the practitioners in the city, or worked in new fields outside the city, growing food in exchange for silver.
After working hard all their lives, most of them do not live to be fifty.
Not to mention seeing the scenery of the upper world, most of them will never have the chance to leave the Destiny Broken Land in their lifetime.
Pang Jian felt that he was quite lucky when he thought that he had left Beiqi and was able to work as a practitioner in Tianyun. He had also been to the Bagua array in the fifth realm and had seen the scenes of those tyrannical aliens soaring into the sky.
On the streets of the West District, Pang Jian, neatly dressed and with clean fingers, looked around with emotion.
The members of the dark alley gang are all human beings, and you can tell at a glance that he is a person embarking on the path of spiritual practice.
Therefore, no one dared to provoke him, but they just wondered why he didn't enter through other city gates.
After wandering around the West District, taking note of the street conditions, and comparing it with the picture in his mind, Pang Jian went to the South District.
The South District is obviously much more lively.
There were many casual cultivators on the street, and loud voices could be heard from the wine shops and shops and inns on both sides.
This is completely different from the streets of Bagua City.
“Finally we’ve reached a place that’s a bit popular.”
Muttering to himself, Pang Jian casually entered a shop.
After coming out, he found a lot of earth flame stones in his storage bag, but he wanted to buy the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts, but he didn't get anything.
He learned from the store owner that the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts were controlled by the Shangguan family. Most of the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts hunted by casual cultivators from Yunze were bought by the Shangguan family at low prices.
——This is also the main tribute paid by the Shangguan family to Blood Moon.
The store also told him that the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts were for sale in several towns outside Tianyun City and some strongholds in Yunze, so he could go there and try it out.
Pang Jian continued to wander around the South District, visiting different shops, and gradually got more poisonous powder and poison in his hands.
Passing by a pavilion with the laughter of Yingying Yanyan, Pang Jian, who was at the corner of the street, saw a familiar person.
Blood Moon fee levy.
Fei Zheng was at a window upstairs, being fawned over by several people in brocade clothes, drinking and having fun.
Several people were accompanied by beautiful beauties, and they frequently toasted to Fei Zheng of the Blood Moon.
In front of the door called Fuxiang Tower, there were city guards wearing Shangguan family uniforms guarding the gate. No one was allowed to enter. It seemed that this place was specifically for Fei Zheng.
Fei Zheng, who did not deliberately exhale the smell of alcohol, turned red in the face and drunkenly enjoyed the service of the dignitaries in the lower world.
As far as he is concerned, no one in the entire Tianyun City dares to have trouble with him, so he naturally doesn't care about the casual cultivators walking on the street.
In the Blood Moon in the upper realm, he still had to hold his tail between his legs to be a human being, but in the Tianyun City in the lower realm, he was the Supreme Emperor.
Even the city lord Shangguan Dong had to serve him carefully and presented him with the best wine and the most beautiful beauties in the city, which made him a little happy to miss Shu.
"It seems that he is not on the animal trapping ship every night, so the difficulty should be lower."
After watching in silence for a while, Pang Jian quietly left.
He went to the North District and the East District again, walking through all four streets of Tianyun City, which was not too big, and carefully compared it with the picture in his mind.
Finally, after taking a wax pill, he came to the mansion in the East District where the "unfixed ferry" was parked.
The "Indefinite Ferry" has no cover at all.
It was parked in the courtyard of the mansion. The deck was higher than the pavilion, and the blood-red crescent moon among the dark banners was extremely conspicuous.
This group of Blood Moon practitioners seemed to have never thought that anyone would dare to attack them.
From the mouths of Meng Qiulan and Zhao Ling, Pang Jian also learned that before this, the dark ghosts did not dare to attack these sects in the upper world for fear of being ruthlessly swept away by the sects in the upper world.
That night.
Pang Jian stayed in a dilapidated small building belonging to a dark ghost in the West District, where civilians lived. He took out a white jade porcelain bottle from his arms.
After lifting the cork of the bottle and waiting for a wisp of rich energy and blood to escape, Pang Jian looked at the Luo Hongyan above the crystal lotus. Although it was in a miniature and pocket-sized form, it was still extremely beautiful.
He was lost for a moment.
It was precisely because he could often see Luo Hongyan and see such a face that brought disaster to the country and the people that he felt so attached to women like Bai Wei and Baizhi.
"This is no longer Yunze Town."
Luo Hongyan, whose consciousness was overflowing, knew the situation after a brief sense: "Has the dark ghost decided to take action?"
"Well, they are planning to take action in Tianyun City, probably in the next few days."
Pang Jian explained the situation and his detailed understanding of Tianyun City, and then asked: "What level is your true combat power? If you want to make it clear, I will have an idea."
"If I join the war now, as long as I don't meet the Yinling Temple Overhaul who is proficient in the art of soul confinement, I can kill anyone in the marrow-cleansing realm." Luo Hong pursed her lips and smiled, and explained: "I won't go to the third realm. Because there are too many powerful people in the third realm, it is too dangerous with our current cultivation level."
"As for the fourth realm, as long as we are careful, there is actually nothing to worry about."
Luo Hongyan said proudly.
"Okay, then I'm relieved."
