"Senior brother, what kind of treasure is this? How much incense is it worth?"
The little kid has always been obsessed with money. When he heard it was a treasure, he immediately flew over and took the token from his senior brother's hand, looking like he was appreciating it.
However, its fragrance can be counted with more than one hand. No one has a discerning eye to detect treasures. It is easy to play with it by tossing it upside down.
"Okay, I'll see your sister Ying'er later."
Chu Chen was self-aware, and his treasure appraisal skills were far inferior to Qingying's. After playing with the token for a while, he didn't find much. He only found that the token was hard in texture and made of unusual materials.
However, he didn't pay too much attention.
Accepting the token is just to reassure the Ai family. It is a good thing to have a predestined method. If there is no predestined method, there will be no regrets or losses.
After playing with it some more, Chu Chen put the bronze token back into the Bracelet Immortal Mansion, meditated, and waited.
...
The next day.
There was a lot of commotion in Aijiapu in Yuqin Mountain, and the news quickly spread in Yuqin Mountain.
Because it involved the two major forces of Dachang Celestial Dynasty and Wandu Desolate Valley, the news quickly spread throughout Yunzhou and even the eight southwest states.
The side sects, the moderate and neutral forces are watching from a distance, waiting for the situation to develop, while the demonic sect is fanning the flames, sowing dissension, exaggerating the ambitions of the Dachang Celestial Empire, oppressing local indigenous people everywhere, spreading the theory of the threat of the Celestial Dynasty, and inciting the indigenous people of the eight southwest states. He was hostile to the Celestial Empire and tried to stir up a bigger disturbance.
At this point, no one cares about "Aijiapu". Everyone's attention is on Dachang Dynasty, and various rumors are flying everywhere.
Rumors spread like wildfire that the Dachang Dynasty was preparing to completely cleanse all the forces in the eight southwest states and swallow them up in one fell swoop.
The demons are dancing wildly, and the situation is delicate.
The Department of Ghosts and Gods in Yunzhou is in charge of the study room in the courtyard, and the letters are fragrant and birds.
"No wonder Zhenren is so optimistic about Chu Chen!"
Taoist Taihe sat in the study, put down his greeting card, and had a faint smile on his face.
The Aijiapu matter is a relatively difficult issue. Under normal circumstances, he would not leave it to a new deputy governor of Jinzhou.
It's just that Chu Chen is different. He is an alternate elder of the Central Council of Elders and was appointed by the Immortal Court to guard Yuqin Mountain. He is fully responsible for the affairs of demons and gods here.
He had to leave this errand to Chu Chen, otherwise, it would be out of his control.
For this reason, he was worried about Chu Chen, fearing that he was young and would not think things through carefully and cause a big mess.
However, what surprised him was that Chu Chen handled the situation extremely tactfully. He did not let the words of his subordinates influence his decision. He had an overall view of the situation and protected the Ai family on the spot while being in line with the general direction of the Celestial Dynasty. The two sides of China and China were on the same level, reducing the scale of the conflict.
That night, the old owner of Wandu Desolate Valley sent him a letter overnight, saying that Wandu Desolate Valley was not willing to make the matter a big deal and defined the conflict in Aijiapu as a personal grudge.
Holding the greeting card from the old master of the Wandu Desolate Valley, Taoist Taihe smiled with satisfaction.
If he takes action, like Chu Chen, he will give priority to controlling the scale of the conflict, and his approach will be almost the same.
However, he is in charge of a state, and has been in charge of the affairs of demons and gods all year round. He is over a hundred years old and has gone through ups and downs several times. But Chu Chen is just a thirty-year-old boy. In the world of immortality, this is A young boy.
"He has a high talent for cultivating the Taoism. He has entered the realm of great supernatural powers at a young age. He does not have the sharpness of a young man to succeed. He handles things in a mature and prudent manner and considers everything carefully. This boy is incredible."
Taoist Taihe was filled with emotion. At that time, he was also a young genius, full of energy, scolding Fang Qiu, and there was no one like me in the world. However, when he met Chu Chen, he suddenly had the idea of "The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves in front, and the waves in front crash on the beach." "The emotion.
With a silent sigh in his heart, Taoist Taihe's expression returned to normal, and his eyes fell on the invitation.
The Aijiabao incident is no longer the matter between the Celestial Dynasty and the Ten Thousand Poison Desolate Valley, but it is still not completely resolved.
Next, is the battle between Chu Chen and the Green Snake Witch King.
It is crucial to protect the Ai family under the offensive of the Green Snake Witch King.
Saved, everyone is happy.
If he failed to save it, both Chu Chen himself and the Celestial Empire would be in great disgrace.
Thinking of this, Taoist Taihe couldn't help but feel a little worried about Chu Chen's Taoist and magical powers.
He naturally knew that when he was in the fifth-level super-level cultivation, Chu Chen fought against the great magical lion demon, and just after breaking through, he violently beat Qingyang Xiaohou Ye, showing amazing magical powers.
However, whether it is the Great Divine Power Lion Demon or the Little Marquis of Qingyang, each of them has just entered the realm of great supernatural power within a few years. They are deficient in all aspects of supernatural powers and magic weapons, but their magic power is a bit stronger.
But the Green Snake Witch King is different.
After thirty years in the realm of great supernatural powers, not only did his magical power far exceed that of Chu Chen, but he also had all the magical powers that needed to be cultivated and the magic weapons that needed to be sacrificed. His magical power was not comparable to that of the Lion Demon or the Little Marquis of Qingyang.
This is a truly powerful man with great supernatural powers who has traveled all over the world.
"I don't know what Chu Chen's magical powers will be after he breaks through to the fourth level of Taoism..."
Taoist Taihe thought this and without hesitation, he picked up the metropolitan order on the table and started to contact people.
"I don't care if I see Taihe!"
With a smile on his face, Han Chen's shadow appeared in the hall and he bowed his hand to him.
Taoist Taihe got straight to the point and asked:
"Fellow Daoist Han, you are familiar with Fellow Daoist Lingxiao. In your opinion, can he defeat the Green Snake Witch King?"
Han Chen heard about what happened in Yuqin Mountain and Du Guan asked about it. He pondered for a moment and said:
"Although Ling Xiao comes from a small sect, and his family is not rich, he has deep connections with immortals and extraordinary magical powers. Among other things, he possesses the lost secret magic power of the Guigu lineage [Twelve Seals of Tianmui Lingwen]. I also have the treasures of the Five Elements in my body, I believe that the magic weapon can be initially sacrificed, and it has extraordinary magical powers, and I can fight with the Green Snake Witch King."
In fact, Han Chen was also worried about Chu Chen.
However, he has confidence in Master Yulou Zhenren.
The master is not a nepotistic person who recommends Chu Chen to be a candidate elder of the Central Elders Council and entrusts him with important tasks. It is not only because Chu Chen helped him achieve great achievements, but also because Chu Chen must have magical powers that he didn't know about, so he promoted him out of the ordinary. .
After hearing Han Chen's words, Taihe Taoist also remembered that Chu Chen was a big owner of Five Elements rare treasures and had many Five Elements rare treasures in his hands. He was not an ordinary poor monk.
If he was willing to spend the money, he would spend more than a year refining the magic weapon and the magical power he wanted.
Thinking of this, Taihe Taoist felt a little at ease and said:
"Fellow Daoist Han, I wonder if you have something important at hand. If not, you should go to Yuqin Mountain to help Daoist Lingxiao and don't let him be harmed for no reason. In addition, if Aijia Fort is destroyed, , you hide your identity and come to the rescue privately, it’s okay if the Ai family is killed or injured, don’t let the entire Ai family fort be annihilated.”
Han Chen was overjoyed when he heard this. He had originally planned to take action. Unfortunately, due to his status, he had many scruples. Now that he had listened to the instructions, he was overjoyed and bowed his hands:
"I will obey the decree of the capital!"
...
"Erlang, don't worry, if something goes wrong, I'll help you save a group of Ai's family members."
In the bamboo forest of the dreamland, Qingying is wearing a simple and elegant fairy dress of goose yellow. Her face is like white jade, and her face is as beautiful as a morning flower. She is incomparably beautiful.
"good."
Chu Chen smiled.
It is difficult for Xianting to interfere in the affairs of the Ai family.
Xianting might tell the truth, but in order to ensure nothing went wrong, he still asked Qingying to help in a private capacity.
In addition to Qingying, he also invited his master Fu Hua and his uncle Fu Ling. It wasn't that he didn't keep his promise, but to guard against the other party's dirty tricks. He couldn't handle it alone, so he asked someone to support him.
After all, the battle with the Green Snake Witch King is not only a matter of life and death for thousands of Ai family members, it is also his first job when he settles in Yuqin Mountain. Whether he does it well or not is directly related to whether he can survive the next three years of his term.
If he failed miserably, he would not only be held accountable by the Immortal Court, but his prestige would be ruined, and it would be much more difficult to guard Yuqin Mountain in the future.
On the contrary, if he establishes his reputation in the first battle, it will be much easier for him to guard Yuqin Mountain in the future.
Speaking of which, Brother Dog Lao Liu and the scholar who returned from visiting relatives in Qingzhou also heard about Chu Chen's affairs and asked him if he needed help.
Chu Chen declined politely, not because he looked down on their strength, but because their identities were not suitable for them to be involved.
After some contact, Chu Chen left the Dream Village with satisfaction and returned the dream stone to the Bracelet Immortal Mansion.
The kid on the side saw this and said quickly:
"Brother, you finally woke up. The calamity over Aijiapu is getting stronger and stronger. I feel like he is about to take action."
Chu Chen was shocked when he heard this.
Last night, the Ai family did not sit still and wait for death, but began to actively prepare for immigration-related matters.
Any family of casual cultivators living in the wilderness are cunning rabbits who have three or even dozens of burrows and cannot put their eggs in one basket.
Aijiabao is the ancestral land of the Ai family, but in addition, there are several strongholds where thousands of people live.
In one night, Aijiabao attracted the attention of the Green Snake Witch King, and the migration to other strongholds was very smooth. They moved nearby to major cities in Yuqin, Yunxi, and Qingshi counties, where they were safe and sound.
At present, only the people in Aijiapu have not been transferred.
After all, Chu Chen was only one person and had no skills. After leaving Aijia Fort, without the protection of the mountain-protecting formation built over a century, he could not protect the Ai family at all. He might as well wait for work in Aijia Fort and wait for the Green Snake Witch King to take action. Dispose of tricks at a glance.
Obviously, the Green Snake Witch King can't wait any longer, or in other words, he is about to make his move that he has been planning for a long time.
About half an hour later.
Aijiapu, which had been quiet for a day and a night, became noisy again.
There was no other reason than that someone in the castle was poisoned.
At first, it was only one or two who felt uncomfortable, but in just a few hundred seconds, there were nearly ten thousand people from the entire Aijiabao tribe, ranging from the strong and powerful to the old and weak, women and children, whether they were ordinary tribesmen or accomplished practitioners. The monks all had black faces and were poisoned.
Even Ai Tianen, the head of the Ai family and a late fifth-level Taoist practitioner, was no exception. He was poisoned without knowing it.
Chu Chen, Wang Xi, and Ning were all at peace with each other.
"President Chu, this poison must be caused by the magical power of Weisheng. He cursed the blood poison and used the blood of the Ai family as a trigger to launch the attack."
Ning Taoist was from the Zhenger Bajing sect. He was well-informed and recognized him at a glance. Then a look of horror appeared on his face:
"I never expected that the Green Snake Witch King would be so evil in his magical powers. No wonder he retreated easily yesterday. It turns out he had this trick."
Chu Chen frowned as he looked at the Ai family members who looked pale and had mana surging in their bodies, as if they were trying their best to resist and suppress the poison.
"Is this poison very powerful?"
Ning Taoist nodded slightly, with an ugly look on his face:
"This poison is not a natural poison, and ordinary detoxification techniques can only suppress it. If the Green Snake Witch King casts the spell in private, the poison in the Ai family's body will resurge, like maggots in the tarsal bones, chasing the soul and seeking life, and it is difficult to get rid of it. People who are slightly in poor health simply cannot withstand a few days..."
Speaking of this, Ning Taoist did not continue to speak, but the words were already made very clear.
As long as the Green Snake Witch King doesn't die and keeps casting spells, the blood poison in the Ai family's body cannot be cured. With their physical body and powerful magic, they can still withstand one or two, but no one in the Ai family can stand up to a powerful person with great magical powers.
The final outcome will definitely be the death of the Ai family.
The entire Ai family, no matter whether they are those who stayed in Aijiabao or those who moved to the city of Tianchao for resettlement, no one can escape, their descendants will be cut off, and their incense will be extinct.
The ruthlessness of his actions and the strangeness of his methods are frightening.
Ai Tianen grew up in a deserted land and was very familiar with the notorious "Wood Curse and Blood Poison". He was well aware of the power of this vicious magical power. His face turned pale and there was no trace of blood left in his face.
"It must be that the Green Snake Witch King yesterday collected the essence and blood of my direct clan members. It's over, it's over. Now my Ai family is completely over."
When Chu Chen heard this, he frowned and felt troubled.
If the Ai family is destroyed, it will be difficult for him to pay homage to the Immortal Court, and he may even suffer a loss.
However, he did not panic.
He has acquired countless magical powers and knows very well that there is no invincible magical power in the world. He ignored Ai Tianen and looked at Ning Taoist.
"Friend Ning Dao, I wonder if there is a way to break this poison?"
"Of course."
Ning Taoist said: "As far as I know, there are many taboos in using this method. If you want to cast this method effectively, you must be close to Aijia Fort. As the saying goes, to capture the thief first, capture the king. As long as the Green Snake Witch King can be found, By interrupting his forbidden spell, the Ai family can be saved, and the opponent who has been hit by [Wood Curse and Blood Poison] once will not be able to use the same trick again."
"What Fellow Daoist Ning said is right."
After Wang Xi finished speaking, his face looked troubled: "It's just that it's not easy to find the Green Snake Witch King. He is planning quietly and must be hiding in a shaded place to cast spells. It won't be easy to find him in a while. I'm not good at divination. "
Ning Dao turned his head away: "I'm not very good at it either."
Having said this, everyone in the hall stopped talking and became silent. The atmosphere was extremely heavy.
Ai Tianen and other Ai family members' eyes fell on Chu Chen. At this point, the only one who could be saved was Chu Chen.
"Elder Chu..."
Chu Chen waved his hands with a calm expression and said:
"No need to worry, I will have a good fight with him."
When everyone heard this, they all looked at Chu Chen with hope in their hearts.
"Sufferer Chu, do you know how to do divination?"
"I won't."
Chu Chen shook his head and saw everyone was surprised. He made a sword gesture with his hand and said with a smile:
"But the fairy sword in my hand can deduce events in heaven and earth. With just one thought, I can kill enemies thousands of miles away!"
