The small courtyard deep in the alley in Beiliang City.
Exactly ten days after Wang Xiao took the bone-eating worm, several carriages stopped at the entrance of the alley.
The few people who got off the carriage were Wang Wufeng and his party, including two old men. One is Shao Wuhou Shao Jian'an, and there is another old man.
The old man's beard and hair are all white, and his face has many wrinkles. He is old at first glance, but his tall and straight figure and bright eyes show that this man also has the ambition of an old man.
"Slow down, be careful." Shao Xin directed his servants to lift the half-crippled Wang Xiao out of the carriage.
After taking care of himself, Wang Xiao was much cleaner, but his face was only skinny and pale.
The fear of death has been tormenting Wang Xiao in the past few days. After not thinking about food and food, he is now what he is now.
Wang Wufeng said: "Dad, father-in-law, Xiao'er's life depends entirely on these two."
In the past few days, Shao Jian'an had been worried about the attack on the northern sect. Shenyin Pavilion has found out that the person who planned this night attack was Ye Gui. But the whereabouts of Night Ghost are a mystery, and it is impossible to find out.
But Wang Xiao's life was in danger, Shao Xin begged, and Shao Jian'an had no choice but to put down what he was doing.
Before coming to Beiliang City, Shao Jian'an already understood what happened. This small courtyard deep in the alley is a mysterious existence in Beiliang City, and even in the entire Beiliang Mansion.
Before coming to Beiliang City, Shao Jian'an already knew the whole story. Hearing Wang Wufeng's words, Shao Jian'an sighed. Back then, a strong man from the sect entered this small courtyard, but never came out again.
Others don't know the reason for this, but how can Shao Jian'an, who is in charge of the Northern Sect, not know?
Seeing Shao Jian'an's expression, Wang Yu on the side snorted coldly: "If Marquis Shao Wu is afraid, just let me go alone. For such a small doctor, I still don't believe that there is nothing we can do against her."
Wang Yu once held a high position, and no one in Kyoto disrespected him. Even after he became an official, Cui Jingzhi, the prefect of Beiliang Prefecture, often went to "talk". This shows Wang Yu's influence.
The former minister of Dali Temple, one of the three divisions of Dachu, was in charge of the trial of prison cases. Who knows how many people's secrets he secretly holds?
If he revealed it casually, he might be able to turn many dignitaries into prisoners.
Wang Yu said coldly to Shao Jian'an. His daughter Wang Wenxiu had just died in Qinggu not long ago, and she died tragically in front of Shao Jian'an. The white-haired man sent the black-haired man away, which Wang Yu couldn't bear to mind.
Although Wang Yu knew the whole story and the reclusive Northern Liang Hou Wei Wuji helped Ye Qinghuan, it was by no means the biggest reason for Wang Wenxiu's death. Shao Jian'an did not resolutely save Wang Wenxiu, which was also the key.
Now, if it weren't for Wang Wufeng's persuasion and for Wang Xiao, the only bloodline of the Wang family, Wang Yu would not go with Shao Jian'an.
Shao Jian kept his eyes steady and did not squint or speak. He was wrong about Wang Wenxiu, and he did not expect that the two young men would be so decisive and kill Wang Wenxiu that night.
Shao Jian'an has been in Beiliang Mansion for many years, and he knows the situation of Beiliang Mansion very well. When he knew that Yuan Hongxin of the Northern Territory Army had been carried and thrown back to the Northern Territory Army, he knew that this matter would not be easy to handle. In his mind, this matter was far from as optimistic as Wang Yu thought.
Before setting off from Qinggu, he sent people to the northern army to inquire about information. Yuan Hongxin's cultivation was not weak. He was a general in the Northern Army, but he was thrown back to the Northern Army. Xu Qing, as the commander of the Northern Army, was also silent. Who is this person?
But until now, the people sent by Shao Jian'an have not come back, and there is no reply.
Shao Jian'an knew what this meant.
A group of people walked into the alley, with servants behind them carrying various gifts. Wang Xiao's life was in Yu Zhuyue's hands, so it would be best if an apology could work.
If not, we just have to see whose fist is bigger.
When they walked to the front of the courtyard, they saw two rows of guards wearing silver armor, holding silver guns in their hands and scimitars on their waists. Dozens of people were stationed neatly.
"Silver spear and scimitar. Northern Army..." Wang Wufeng frowned and recognized the origin of these guards at a glance. "Xiao'er, did you see these guards when you came last time?"
Wang Xiao also shook his head in confusion, "There has never been a guard in this small courtyard, why now..."
The Northern Border Army who had accompanied him in attacking the courtyard actually became the other party's bodyguard?
What exactly is going on?
Wang Yuneng rose to the rank of Minister of Dali Temple step by step, and he was also a scheming person. Looking at the patrolling guards in front of him, Wang Yu had so many thoughts in his mind that he no longer had the bold words he had just said.
Wang Wufeng stepped forward and was stopped by the guards.
"Who are you?" the leading guard asked.
When Wang Wufeng faced the Northern Territory Army, he knew that the person in front of him had a lower official position than himself, so he did not dare to be arrogant and domineering. Behind the Northern Border Army is Marshal Xu Qing, who has been guarding the Northern Border for decades. He is a person whom the Emperor of Chu greatly trusts. You can rest assured that Xu Qing has a hundred thousand Northern Border Army.
"I am Wang Wufeng, the governor of Tianshui City. I would like to visit Dr. Yu Zhuyueyu on this trip."
The leading guard looked behind Wang Wufeng for a few times. Shao Jian'an and Wang Yu were both people who had been in high positions for a long time, and they carried a faint sense of pressure.
He cupped his fists and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Wang. Since he is an official in the same dynasty, please invite me."
"Thank you!" Wang Wufeng said. "May I ask, why are the Northern Army stationed here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp light flashed in the eyes of the leading guard, and he reminded: "Master Wang, please don't ask more questions that you shouldn't ask."
Wang Wufeng was startled, and then walked towards the small courtyard.
When Wang Xiao passed by the guard, he only heard the voice of the leading guard.
"My lord, I would like to say one more thing. Since I know that the Northern Border Army is here to protect you, my lord and your lords must not cross the border and make it difficult for me."
The words were full of threats.
Wang Wufeng walked forward silently. Wang Yu's face was ugly. When he was an official, he knew that Xu Qing, the commander of the Northern Army, was a ruthless character. In Beiliang Mansion and even in the three northern prefectures, the most powerful and important person is not the prefect of the three prefectures, but the Northern Territory Army Xu Qing.
Anyone can be the prefect of the three prefectures, but who can resist the Prairie Wolf Court in the north? Only Xu Qing can!
Someone once impeached Xu Qing for supporting the army, but he was thrown into prison. It can be seen that the Da Chu Emperor trusted Xu Qing.
Shao Wuhou also knew the truth. He said that Shao Wuhou Mansion was in charge of the northern sects and had a high position of power, but he knew that the sects in Shiwandashan were not afraid of him, Shao Jian'an, but the 100,000 northern army!
Boom, boom, boom!
It was Yu Lan who opened the door. When she saw Wang Xiao, she showed a look of extreme disgust.
"You...are not dead yet!"
...
On Cangshan Mountain, after the conversation with Cang Jin last night, Yu Zhi finally understood Cang Jin's thoughts.
Now he has become a pawn for Cang Jin to win over Cang Huo. Yu Zhi is also willing to do anything to please the two sides.
Early this morning, Jiang Yi sent a few stacks of talisman papers, which estimated that he deducted 10,000 taels of silver from Yu Zhi, causing Yu Zhi to scold him as a profiteer.
However, Yu Zhi also took a look at the quality of these talisman papers. Some of them came from Shenyin Pavilion and were of the highest quality. Some of them came from unknown sources, but they were also excellent.
After doing this calculation, Yu Zhi no longer felt that he was at a loss. At least Jiang Yi saved him a lot of trouble.
Relying on his memory, Yu Zhi continued to draw runes on the talisman paper. Compared with Cang Huo's many obstructions, Yu Zhi had corrected most of them, and his progress was much faster than Cang Huo's.
"go!"
Yu Zhi activated his true energy, and saw only one-third of the runes with a stream of true energy flowing. The talismans began to burn, and exploded in the courtyard. The sound was like a mountain disintegrating, a stormy wave crashing on the shore, and a small mushroom cloud. Soaring up in the air.
Yu Zhi was also shocked into a cold sweat. Yu Zhi had not expected such power.
"If this is a complete rune, it wouldn't be too much to blow up the entire Cangshan Mountain." Yu Zhi murmured.
Yu Zhi looked at the scorched earth in the yard. This was only one-third of the runes. There were still many imperfections in the runes. That alone could have such power.
If the runes are completed and the talisman is carved, how powerful will it be?
Of course, this is something.
If you want to research new runes, it will probably take you a lifetime. It would be difficult for a generation, or even several generations, to research a new rune that was still such a powerful rune.
It's amazing that Cang Huo can do this.
After nearly an hour, Yu Zhi only completed one talisman. The energy required to carve the runes on the talisman paper was almost the entire body's energy. The amount of energy consumed today also required Yu Zhi to recover for several hours.
After packing up everything, Yu Zhi walked towards the red leaf forest.
The broken door panels of the small courtyard have been reinstalled, and the registered disciples on Cangshan Mountain are the ones doing this work.
On the way, Yu Zhi met Guo Shuer. If he hadn't seen Guo Shuer cuddling in Zhao Hao's arms last night, Yu Zhi would have definitely avoided Guo Shuer today, fearing that the love would fall on him.
But now, Yu Zhi no longer has such worries. Guo Shuer climbed to another high branch, there was no need to press her hot face against Yu Zhi's cold ass.
When Guo Shuer saw Yu Zhi, a strange color flashed in her eyes, and she said, "Senior Brother Li Zhi."
Yu Zhi nodded, his eyes quickly passed over Guo Shuer, and he continued to walk forward.
Guo Shuer's expression became a little ferocious, but she quickly regained her composure. Yu Zhi's look deeply hurt her. Last night, Yu Zhi saw Guo Shuer. After Yu Zhi turned around, Guo Shuer also saw Yu Zhi out of the corner of his eye.
"Senior Brother Li Zhi, do you look down on me?" Guo Shuer's voice came from behind Yu Zhi.
Yu Zhi stopped and heard Guo Shuer continue: "I know you saw me last night and you know what happened between me and Senior Brother Zhao Hao, but what can I do..."
Yu Zhi turned around, interrupted Guo Shuer, and said: "I didn't mean to look down on you, and you don't have to tell me this. The road to spiritual practice is long, and you have to search up and down. Everyone has their own choice, whether it is right or wrong, time will tell Your answer."
Yu Zhi looked like it had nothing to do with him. In fact, it had nothing to do with him at all.
Like the courtesan and courtesan in a brothel, if given the choice, which girl would be willing to do the business of having a little bit of red lips that could be tasted by thousands of people?
But there are many helpless things in the world. Some people fly onto the branches and some fall into the dust. Everyone's path forward is his own.
Guo Shuer also needs to go by herself.
Guo Shuer looked at Yu Zhi's back as he turned away, clenching his hands into fists, his knuckles turning white. What I fear most is the concern of strangers, and what I fear the most is the contempt of strangers.
Two lines of clear tears fell down Guo Shuer's cheeks. It was hard to recall last night's unhappiness. Only she knew what she had paid for last night.
Do you regret it?
No!
Guo Shuer also turned around, with tears on her face as if they had never appeared before.
"Father and mother, you must protect your daughter! When she avenges you and kills Cang Shui, she will come find you!"
