Break into the formation?
Yu Zhi was confused and looked at the black figure wearing armor.
The armor on the black shadow was stained with rust, and the engraved lines were no longer very clear. It looked as if it had experienced the baptism of countless years, revealing some ancient and decaying meaning.
The broken black armor had no helmet, a head-like black shadow hung on the black armor, and masses of black mist were exposed on the limbs.
Strictly speaking, it was the broken black armor covering a black shadow, not the black shadow wearing black armor.
Yu Zhi said: "I, Yu Zhi, accidentally entered this place. Please show me the way out to my senior. I will leave immediately."
After Yu Zhi answered, the black shadow was silent for a long time, and the black mist on his head shook, as if he was thinking.
Seeing the other party's appearance, Yu Zhi pulled Li Wantong back a few steps and prepared to escape.
Judging from the force just now, Yu Zhi would not be his opponent at all.
This black shadow can be crushed by just moving a finger.
After a long time, just when Yu Zhi lost his patience and wanted to escape, the black shadow stammered: "I...we are ordered to guard...this place. Anyone who trespasses...will die!"
When Yu Zhi heard this, he picked up Li Wantong and ran towards the deepest part of the darkness.
Biluo Qingyan also followed closely beside Yu Zhi, constantly exclaiming in her heart, it's so scary, that black thing is really scary.
Now it clearly realizes that it and Yu Zhi are grasshoppers on the same rope.
After Yu Zhi realized that blood could awaken these white bones, he carefully sealed the acupuncture points all over his body to stop the bleeding and prevent blood from splashing on the white bones again.
But there is an army of bones and a mysterious black shadow behind. What is waiting for Yu Zhi in the darkness ahead?
...
Early morning in Kyoto is as lively as night.
It's just that the lively people are different.
The brothels and brothels in Wenwen Township are still sleeping soundly on their beds, and the stalls on the street have been set up early.
In the early morning, Jiang Qing, who had returned from the north, entered the palace early.
The incident in Cangshan had already reached Kyoto and reached the ears of Chu Emperor Xiao Yuande.
The progress of the matter was as everyone expected. Cangshan did not dare to confront the Chu Dynasty, and obediently gave up the fate of the sect for twenty years.
But on the way back, the Northern Army was ambushed by night ghosts and suffered heavy losses.
This was something no one expected.
In the morning, the Emperor of Chu did not mention a word about this matter. After praising Prince Xiao Jingyao and others for their proper handling of the matter, he dismissed the matter.
After the early court, Jiang Qing was passed to the Imperial Study Room by Emperor Chu.
Jiang Qing walked into the imperial study and saw that besides Emperor Chu, there was a young man wearing a python robe serving him.
The young man nodded slightly, but he couldn't hide the arrogance and arrogance between his brows.
This person is none other than the third prince Xiao Jingyu.
Why is the third prince here? ....Jiang Qing had some guesses in his mind, but he couldn't figure it out for a while.
"My lord, Jiang Qing, pay homage to Your Majesty." Jiang Qing saluted.
Emperor Chu waved his hand, indicating that he would be exempted from the courtesy.
"Jiang Qing, the Cangshan matter has been handled well. I have read the memorials from you and the prince, and it is good. It will bring Cangshan the fortune of the sect for twenty years. You have also put in a lot of effort, and it is indeed good."
Emperor Chu said "not bad" three times in a row.
Jiang Qing, who has been an official for many years, knows that this is the best compliment Xiao Yuande can give.
Before Jiang Qing could say his thanks, Emperor Chu continued: "In the prince's memorial, a person in your supervisory court was mentioned many times. What do you think of this person?"
Xiao Jingyu's curious eyes fell on Jiang Qing.
Xiao Jingyu always paid special attention to this imperial brother. For example, after being in danger many times, did the royal brother die?
Emperor Chu didn't say his name, but Jiang Qing also knew who he was.
Jiang Qing avoided Xiao Jingyu's gaze and said in a deep voice: "This person's name is Yu Zhi. It was Yu Zhi who found out the truth of the case. Yu Zhi also played a key role in the negotiations with Cangshan."
That’s all.
As for its function, Jiang Qing did not say clearly. Everything that happened at that time has been reported in the memorial, so there is no need for him to say more.
Emperor Chu looked at Xiao Jingyu and asked, "Yu Zhi has meritorious service. Third child, how do you think this person should be rewarded?"
Xiao Jingyu was slightly surprised. He never thought that Emperor Chu would ask him this.
Who is Yu Zhi?
After returning to Kyoto, Xiao Jingyu heard about this person from various sources.
Qiu Ruoruo's good friend and Bai Yu's enemy, Xiang Jinghao, also had conflicts with this person.
But what does this have to do with him?
In Xiao Jingyu's opinion, if he wanted to pay attention to this person named Yu Zhi, it would be because his imperial brother valued this person.
Since he is someone whom the royal brother values, he must be destroyed.
Xiao Jingyu thought for a while and said: "Father, as far as I know, Yu Zhi has a particularly bad reputation among the people. It is said that this person is studying at Taoist Academy, but he failed the college examination in three years and was rumored to be It's a shame to ask. This person must be ignorant and incompetent, how can he still perform extraordinary feats in the face of a sect like Cangshan?"
"In this matter, I dare not say anything about how to reward him. But according to Yu Zhi's reputation in Kyoto, it is a bit strange to have such merit."
When Jiang Qing heard this, his expression was calm, but he sighed in his heart.
These three highnesses are indeed as honest as the rumors say.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince named you for recommendation, but you came out to oppose it without any secret. If you say that you are not against the Crown Prince, who will believe it?
However, Xiao Jingyu thought that his words were excellent.
It is reasonable and well-founded, and you can wink in front of your father. How can it be so easy for you, Xiao Jingyao, to support someone?
Chu Emperor Xiao Yuande seemed to have anticipated Xiao Jingyu's reaction, and said without changing his expression: "As you said, the credit of Yu Zhi is still open to question?"
Xiao Jingyu said: "I think there is no need to be so anxious about the reward. We might as well wait until Yu Zhi returns to the capital and take a good exam to see if the reputation of being a shameful person is false and whether Yu Zhi really thinks he is me. Great Chu is a capable minister. When the time comes, my father will give him a large reward to avoid criticism from the jealous courtiers."
Emperor Chu looked at Xiao Jingyu with seriousness, and suddenly smiled and said: "You have matured a lot after years of experience in the army. What you said makes some sense. It's not too late to wait for Yu Zhi to return to the capital before awarding him the reward. .”
Having said this, Emperor Chu suddenly asked: "By the way, where is Yu Zhiren?"
Jiang Qing told Emperor Chu about Yu Zhi's trip to Meteor Star Cliff.
Emperor Chu just responded and said perfunctorily: "Then wait until he returns to Beijing to resume his duties."
After some time, Xiao Jingyu and Jiang Qing walked out of the palace one after another.
"Master Jiang, it's noon, why don't we go to Baiweiju to get some food? At this time of year, the fresh bamboo shoots in the mountains are very delicious." Xiao Jingyu invited.
Jiang Qing saluted Xiao Jingyu and declined: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness. I have been going north for more than a month, and many things have been delayed in the inspection court. There are still many things that need to be dealt with now. I will not go."
Facing Jiang Qing's refusal, Xiao Jingyu flashed a hint of displeasure in his eyes, but he concealed it well.
The Inspectorate is a government agency directly under the emperor, and Jiang Qing is the highest-ranking official among them, so he cannot be offended casually.
Xiao Jingyu still smiled and said, "When Mr. Jiang is free, I will invite Mr. Jiang to tea."
In the imperial study, Emperor Chu put down the memorial and rubbed his brows.
"Meteor Cliff." Emperor Chu muttered.
These three words should have seemed strange to Emperor Chu, but they were very familiar to him.
Although Emperor Chu had never been to Falling Star Cliff, this place was the place he had been thinking about for many years.
In front of the ancestral hall of the imperial palace, Emperor Chu alone faced the spiritual throne of his ancestors.
Only the emperor can enter the ancestral hall, and even the prince can only wait until he succeeds to the throne before he is eligible to enter the ancestral hall.
Not to mention the princes and his like.
After bowing three times to the ancestral throne, Emperor Chu raised his hand and waved, and a huge map appeared in front of him. The vast territory of the world is engraved on the map.
Emperor Chu's eyes soon fell on the Northern Territory of Great Chu. Following the Emperor Chu's thoughts, the Northern Territory was also enlarged on the map.
Time and time again, the vast territory finally stopped on a cliff in Yanyun Mansion.
Meteor Cliff!
In the whole world, there is nothing but the royal land.
However, the emperor would not know every inch of the world.
Why did Meteorite Cliff attract the attention of Emperor Chu?
"Meteor Star Cliff. It has been recorded in the Yunji that a powerful person set up a formation on Meteor Star Cliff a thousand years ago and blocked the alien race under Meteor Star Cliff. I don't know how many of the sealed alien races have died after a thousand years." ?”
Emperor Chu murmured to himself that since he ascended the throne, he knew more secrets of the world, whether it was everything that happened thousands of years ago or hundreds of years ago.
At this time, an almost transparent figure slowly transformed from the spiritual tablet enshrined in the ancestral hall.
What is strange is that Emperor Chu actually bowed to this figure, showing great respect.
Immediately, Emperor Chu said: "Someone went to Meteor Cliff. I wonder if there will be any accidents there."
The figure looked at the Meteor Cliff on the map and said: "Nearly twenty years have passed since the Millennium Period, and the emergence of Night Ghost has also verified the language at that time. If you think about that place under the Meteor Cliff, those aliens should have died. That’s almost it. Besides, there is a large formation in it, and you can’t break through the large formation until you reach the master level.”
Emperor Chu added worriedly: "Maybe Li Haomiao will go there too."
"Li Haomiao? That boy who practices swordsmanship..." The figure did not think that the master was very powerful, and he only called Li Haomiao the boy who practiced swordsmanship.
"There are several layers of seals there. Since he is a master, he can see the strangeness underneath, so naturally he does not dare to act rashly."
Emperor Chu nodded and heard the figure continue: "Now the birth of the night ghost is inevitable. You should find those treasures from thousands of years ago to deal with the catastrophe. If the aliens under the meteor cliff are wiped out, you might as well take the treasures. Come."
Emperor Chu said: "What exactly is the large array of objects under the meteor cliff? You have mentioned it several times."
The figure sighed, with a slightly nostalgic tone, and said: "That is a piece of armor, called a general's armor. It is based on meteorite iron, draws the light of the sun, the moon, and the power of the stars, and it took a hundred years to be cast."
"There was a king among the aliens who were suppressed under the Meteor Cliff because he was too powerful. That powerful man spent his life and melted his blood into his armor, and then he carved a great formation and suppressed all the aliens. At the bottom of the cliff.”
"King of a foreign race." Emperor Chu understood how terrifying this foreign king was.
"If General A is still there, he will be a boost to the human race."
