Luoyang City.
At dawn, the closed door of the 'Daguan Tower' suddenly opened wide. At the same time, the major forces secretly paying attention to the 'Daguan Tower' also received an earth-shattering news: the auction time of the 'Tai Xuan Dan Cauldron' At the end of three minutes today, the map of the 'Tomb of Taixuanzi' was also auctioned. In addition, there were rumors that the tomb of Taixuanzi had been discovered. Only by obtaining the map could the specific location be found.
One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the entire city of Luoyang suddenly seemed like an explosion. Undercurrents surged, and countless homing pigeons and falcons flew in all directions.
"Bang!"
In the office of the Zuo Dufu Si of the 'Beifu Division', Li Junji was furious after receiving the news, and smashed the pear tree table in front of him to pieces with one palm.
"Come here, quickly mobilize all the people in the Zuodu Prefecture, seal the 'Daguan Tower' immediately, and confiscate all the items in the building. If you disobey, you will be killed without mercy!" Li Junji stood up and shouted angrily.
"Grand Commander, wait!"
Suddenly, a person walked out from behind the stone pillar behind Li Junji, bowed and said, "Grand Governor, please think twice. Now the news about the map of 'Tai Xuan Dan Cauldron' and 'Tai Xuan Zi's Tomb' has spread all over the world, and it is related to the 'Elixir of Immortality'" ', has attracted the attention of the world. Not only the kings of the countries in the sky and the land are bound to win, but also the ten great masters are also moved. The governor's move is certainly a relief, and it is in line with the intention of the present, but it is tantamount to trying to fight against the world. enemy!"
This person's name is Zhen Shixu, he is about forty years old, tall and thin, with slender hands and feet, and a cold expression. As he speaks, his eyes are deep and cold, shining with a cold light, giving people a sinister and cold impression. This person usually prides himself on being resourceful and witty, and he advises Li Junji. He is regarded as his right-hand man and is highly valued by him.
However, because of his ruthless nature, vicious methods, and high self-esteem, he was not popular in the Zuo Dufu Division.
"This statement is ridiculous!"
As soon as Zhen Shixu finished speaking, someone jumped out and choked out, "Grand Governor, Zhen Shixu wants to trap the Grand Governor to death. Please kill this man immediately as a warning to others!"
Hearing this voice, Li Junji couldn't help but feel a headache, but it seemed that he had caused this situation himself, so he had to endure it, frowning and said: "Fang Tong, you are serious!"
This Fang Tong was Li Junji's number one master, and he was also a chess piece that Li Junji deliberately supported to restrain Zhen Shixu. The conflict between the two became increasingly intensified, to the point where they were incompatible with each other, even to the point where the other party Those who oppose must agree, and those who agree with the other party must oppose it. Even if you can't find fault, you still have to criticize a few words. If the other party takes advantage of it, you will chase and beat the other party to death.
Fang Tong heard the words and said hurriedly: "Grand Governor, Fang Tong's words were not exaggerated in the slightest. As we all know, I have been obsessed with the 'Elixir of Immortality' for a long time. If I were to know, the Grand Governor knew that I could get the 'Elixir of Immortality'." 'If you don't do anything after clues, you will be furious now, and then..."
At this point, Li Junji's face was filled with uncertainty. He was in a high position. No one knew better than Li Junji that accompanying a king is like accompanying a tiger. It didn't even require the king of the country to issue the order himself, just his immediate superior. Li Linfu can toss himself into ten or eight tricks. For a time, Li Junji was in a dilemma.
"Mobilize all the people in the Zuodu Prefecture to seal off the Grand View Tower, with no entry or exit, and closely monitor the movements of the 'Tai Xuan Alchemy Cauldron' and 'Tai Xuan Zi Tomb' maps!" Li Junji pondered for a moment before issuing an order. After all, he was the enemy of the world. Li Junji didn't have the courage. Even if one of the ten great masters was randomly selected, Li Junji could only kneel down immediately, but he did nothing and left the 'Tai Xuan Dan Cauldron' and 'Tai Xuan Zi Tomb' alone. The map disappeared under his nose, and Li Junji didn't have the courage. Several censors had just been killed outside the Meridian Gate of Yongdu a few days ago, and their heads were still hanging on the flagpole. Li Junji didn't want to be the next one.
After a quarter of noon, most of the streets in Fangshi where the Daguan Tower is located have been cleared. The residents and traders seemed to smell the danger and either fled one after another or closed their doors. The noisy market fell silent, except for the sudden strange wind that picked up dead leaves and debris, swirled in the air, and blew the banners hanging in front of the shops on the street.
In front of the 'Grand View Tower', a large bronze cauldron half a man's height stands on the stone platform. It is placed so casually. There is not even a guard around it. However, if it is exposed to everyone's sight, it will The safest thing is that anyone with a brain knows that this cauldron has become a target. Whoever takes action first will become the target of everyone's attack.
Then, the world never lacks people with well-developed limbs, simple minds, and people who think with their fists.
"Haha, hahaha... If you both want to be a prostitute and want to build a memorial arch, but you don't want to do it first, then this 'Tai Xuan Dan Cauldron' belongs to us, the 'Three Gryphons'!" followed by an arrogant laugh. , three black shadows flew down from the roof on one side and landed around the cauldron.
"rise!"
The three of them each held one foot of the big cauldron and wanted to lift the Taixuan Danding cauldron.
The 'Tai Xuan Alchemy Cauldron' is about three feet high. It follows the structure of the ordinary alchemy cauldron, with three legs and two ears. However, the body of the cauldron is made of eight sides, with a mysterious rune engraved on each side. Although the alchemy cauldron is not big, it is heavy. It weighs more than a thousand pounds.
It was not difficult for the three of them to work together to lift the alchemy cauldron, but it was not easy to be as light as a swallow. The three of them had no choice but to lift the big cauldron and ran away, leaving Fang City and heading straight to the east of Luoyang City.
quiet!
The sound of a needle dropping can be heard.
It was not until the three figures disappeared that the major forces around the 'Daguan Tower' realized that the reality seemed to be different from what they thought. The 'Tai Xuan Alchemy Cauldron' was taken away in such a blatant way under the eyes of the major forces.
"boom!"
With a loud bang, countless people shot out from their hiding places and chased after the three people. But the quick-thinking person turned around and rushed towards the Grand View Tower.
"Map of 'Tai Xuanzi's Tomb'!"
Someone screamed in surprise, and then everyone woke up and turned around to rush into the 'Grand View Tower'.
Suddenly, there was chaos in front of the Grand View Tower. After a chaotic fight, the elimination of dissidents, and the meeting of enemies, a river of blood flowed in front of the Grand View Tower, with dozens of corpses left strewn about.
"Bang!"
With a loud noise and a burst of dust, the entire door wall in front of the 'Daguan Tower' was dismantled.
Inside the wall is the lobby. At this moment, there is no one in the building. Only a three-foot-square sheepskin scroll hangs on the beam in the middle of the lobby. It is distressed and even scrawled. People can tell it is a fake at a glance, but the sheepskin There is a map drawn on the scroll, like a three-year-old child scribbling.
Believe it or not?
Everyone couldn't help but get entangled, but when someone stretched out his hand, sword energy, sword energy, fist power, and palm power burst out at the same time in the hall, and the sheepskin scroll instantly fell into pieces.
Those who got the map fragments immediately turned around and ran away to avoid becoming the target of public criticism. Those who didn't get it were unwilling to return empty-handed. They chose the target and immediately chased after them. After a while, hundreds of people inside and outside the Grand View Tower suddenly dispersed and disappeared. .
"Where are the people?"
By the time Li Junji arrived at the 'Daguan Tower' with the guards of Zuodu Prefecture, it was already a step too late, and there was no one in the Daguan Tower. Li Junji became furious and issued an order, shouting: "You have to dig three feet into the ground and find it for me!"
"Here!"
More than a hundred Zuodu Prefecture guards swarmed in and demolished the entire Grand View Building to pieces. The already crumbling main building of the Grand View Building also collapsed a moment later and turned into ruins.
"Reporting to the Governor, my subordinates discovered a tunnel in the backyard. The tunnel led directly to a house a hundred feet away. However, the house was already empty!" A moment later, a guard rushed over and bowed to report. road.
"Fang Tong!"
"My subordinate is here!"
"Are the guards at the outer perimeter properly arranged?"
"Grand Governor, my subordinates have ordered people to seal off the cities of Tongji, Chengyi, Xuanhua, Mingyi, Chunfeng, and Taisho Liufang. No one is allowed to enter or leave..."
The six cities of Tongji, Chengyi, Xuanhua, Mingyi, Chunfeng and Dazheng are located in the West Market of Luoyang City, together with Datongfang where the Daguan Tower is located. However, these six cities are the only way to enter and exit Datongfang. Road, blocking this Liufang City is equivalent to locking Datongfang.
"Boom!"
Before Fang Tong finished speaking, he heard a loud noise coming from the direction of Dazhengfang in the south. Li Junji immediately flew up and landed on the roof of a wooden building on one side. Looking up, he saw smoke and dust at the gate of Dazhengfang. As the sky rose, the entire gate collapsed, and several nearby houses were affected at the same time.
"Go quickly!"
Li Junji shouted loudly, then took the lead and flew towards Dazhengfang.
"Keep them all for me!"
When Li Junji arrived at the gate of Dazhengfang, there was already a fighting group here. The guards of the Zuodu Prefecture were retreating steadily, and they were in a rout.
The long sword was swung out, followed by a piercing sword cry, and dozens of invisible sword energy burst out, killing the few people rushing at the front. After a while, Fang Tong and others arrived, and the situation quickly reversed. Except for a few people who fled back to Dazhengfang, the remaining more than 40 people were killed by the guards of Zuodu Prefecture, and unexpectedly obtained two pieces of the 'Tomb of Taixuanzi' Map fragments.
"Grand Governor, two groups of people have broken out from the 'Dazhengfang' before. Various forces have also broken out from several other cities and towns. However, most of them are still huddled within the Seventh Square!" Fang Tong said at the fastest speed After inspecting the six squares, he reported back to Li Junji.
Li Junji stood on the ruins of Dazhengfang and looked to the east of Luoyang City, which was in the direction of Taiyi Mountain. Although he did not know the specific location of the 'Tai Xuanzi Tomb', various clues more or less pointed to Taiyi Mountain. Yishan. However, Taiyi Mountain is more than a hundred miles away, and there is no specific map pointing to it. Finding the 'Tomb of Taixuanzi' is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"Fang Tong, before it gets too dark, I order you to clear out all the foreign forces in Qifang City and find all the map fragments no matter what method you use!" Li Junji said solemnly.
At this moment, Li Junji's heart was also cold. Finding all the map fragments was his last struggle. His own life was at stake and it was imminent. Li Junji could no longer care about anything else and had no choice but to do whatever he could.
