Chapter 72: Conspiracy with the Beggar Gang, Chaos in Dali (Second Update)
Just when Chu Xiangyu was about to be captured, a palm force from the sky came inexplicably, blocking Zhuge's offensive and giving him a chance to escape.
He broke into the palace three times to carry out assassinations, and was able to escape from Zhuge Zhengwo's hands afterwards. These two incidents, especially the last one, completely established the king of annihilation's Chaoran status in the world.
In the world line of "Four Famous Captures Shocking Guandong" that has not yet happened, he has become a benchmark figure for "Zhuge level" masters by virtue of his record of capturing iron masters in twenty-five years, and firmly ranks in the world of Wen Juxia's martial arts world. Top of the list.
The palm force that saved him from danger was exactly from King Zuo Wu.
From then on, the King of Extermination became anonymous and joined King Zuo Wu to serve his savior.
King Zuo Wu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the Shenhou Mansion in the distance, and said leisurely:
"Zhuge Xiaohua's move is nothing more than to intimidate Cai Yuanchang and make him focus on himself in order to protect the juniors in the Shenhou Mansion.
However, he shouldn't have taken action in front of me. I have already gotten a glimpse of the truth about this old friend..."
Hearing this, Chu Xiangyu's eyes were shocked.
—— According to the prince, when Zhuge took action the day before yesterday, he was actually on the side?
"Your Majesty, could our big plan be..."
Zhao Lie nodded first and then waved:
"When Brother Feihong returns, we will be almost 50-60% sure. Before that, let Zhuge Xiaohua and Cai Yuanchang fight."
Suddenly, Chu Xiangyu's expression changed. Hearing the noise coming from outside the house, he swayed and walked out of the hall. The figure turned into a stream of light, which changed from thick to light, and suddenly disappeared.
After a while, I saw another dark shadow like the wind coming from the door, and then returned to the hall with a letter in my hand.
He handed the letter to King Zuo Wu and said in a deep voice:
"Letter from Cai Yuanchang."
King Zuo Wu knew what was inside without even looking at it, and said directly:
"With the abilities of Cai Yuanchang's group of people, even if we add the thirteenth limit, if we want to compete with Zhuge Xiaohua, we are still a little short of it."
Chu Xiangyu also nodded, looking quite convinced.
As a "Zhuge-level" expert who was rated by Zhuge as "I'm afraid he can take at least one hundred and fifty moves from me", Chu Xiangyu naturally knew that Zhuge Zhengwo was unfathomable.
If not, why did he and King Zuo Wu have to make so many preparations and arrangements, and even wait until now, and even continue to wait for the return of Feihong, the eldest son of the "King of Desolation"?
King Zuo Wu pondered for a moment and then said:
"Let's do this. You find an opportunity to directly send the information about Qiao Feng's life experience into the Taishi Mansion. Cai Yuanchang has always been good at leveraging others' power. He knows what to do."
Chu Xiangyu squinted his eyes and stroked his beard, nodded and said:
"When Gang Leader Qiao is desperate, we just lend a helping hand and take this warrior under our command."
Mentioning Qiao Feng, even people like Chu Xiangyu couldn't help but show admiration.
Zhao Lie was not as optimistic as Chu Xiangyu, he just waved his hand and said:
"With Qiao Feng's temperament, he may not be on the same road as us. However, I love this kind of hero the most in my life. When the time comes, I will tell my subordinates to let him be ruined and try not to harm his life.
A person like him can be used as an example to the Khitan people after we revive the world, to show the tolerance of the Song Dynasty. ”
"Your Majesty has thought deeply, I understand."
As he spoke, Chu Xiangyu raised his fist and saluted Zhao Lie.
Zhao Lie crushed the letter in his hand, threw it out, and sighed:
"Qiao Feng, Zhuge and others are all rare heroes, a hundred times better than Cai Jing, Fu Zongshu and the like, but they are difficult for me to use. It is really a pity..."
Having said this, Zhao Lie let out a long sigh, with a hint of inadvertent loneliness in his eyes.
He waved his hand and stopped looking at Chu Xiangyu.
"However, if you really can't take this kind of enemy hero under your command, you should overthrow him to restore his ambition and kill him to strengthen his career. Go ahead."
However, after making up his mind, Zhao Lie still had doubts in his heart. He did not express them out loud, but just thought about it silently.
Who is the junior who made Zhuge Zhengwo protect him as much as possible, even if he used his body as bait, and gave him great expectations in return?
Is it really an iron hand?
Or, is it the extremely mysterious teacher?
Does a junior who has just entered the Shenhou Mansion for less than a month really deserve Zhuge's trust?
Even if he couldn't find out the identity of this person, Zhuge shouldn't be able to do so. How could he be so trusting of a stranger?
Although it felt a bit ridiculous, Zhao Lie still felt that it was possible after thinking about what he had seen and heard in the Shenhou Mansion before.
After all, that person is a genius who can develop a new martial arts from scratch, and even create a new martial arts.
——If that’s true, that would be so interesting!
Looking out the window, Zhao Lie felt extremely excited.
——Zhuge Zhengwo, I want to see how you can surprise me!
Tie Shou and Xu Xing, who have been traveling over mountains and ridges since leaving the capital, specializing in traveling in inaccessible places, do not know the news yet.
Along the way, Tie Shou once again realized the extent of Xu Xing's obsession with martial arts.
Xu Xing even exaggerated to the point that every time he walked a certain distance, he would change to a different martial arts. It seemed that in this teacher's opinion, this long distance of thousands of miles was the perfect testing ground for martial arts.
Tie Shou never even saw Xu Xing take a real rest - even if he stopped, he was still practicing.
Although Tie Shou is also a person who has a tough temperament and practices hard, he still can't help but be overshadowed by martial arts fanatics like Xu Xing, who practices every day and all the time, never seems to relax and is always focused on martial arts.
Tie Shou also finally understood that there is only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname. This sentence is so apt for Xu Xing.
The name Xu Xing was obviously a completely wrong choice, even the complete opposite, and the nickname "Crazy Devil" fit so perfectly.
Tie Shou didn't even see the slightest hint of fatigue in Xu Xing's eyes.
It seems that studying martial arts itself is, to him, the most interesting and fun thing in the world, and the most worthy of dedicating his life and energy.
It is a full four to five thousand miles from the capital to Dali. If you go over mountains and ridges instead of following the official road, the distance will be several hundred kilometers further.
Along the way, from north to south, the climate and environment are even more different.
Depending on the topography, changes in celestial phenomena, and forest growth, Xu Xing has used at least dozens of light-body techniques, striving to make each technique the best choice in a specific environment.
Tie Shou had never heard of this kind of training method. But as a police officer, he had to travel all over the world frequently, so he soon started to learn from Xu Xing.
In this way, the two of them traveled all the way over mountains and ridges, and rushed directly from the capital to the vicinity of Dali Kingdom.
Only when they arrived in the urban area did they truly know what Zhuge Shenhou had done in the capital.
After hearing about Zhuge Zhengwo's feat of overpowering the Taishi Mansion, Tie Shou also felt a little excited and said with admiration:
"Although Uncle Shi is old and experienced in world affairs, his spirit and ambition are not old, which is quite enviable."
Although Tie Shou has always been evaluated by Zhuge Zhengwo as "the most capable of great achievements among the four disciples", he is always deeply troubled because he is too honest and honest and cannot imitate Uncle Shi's unrestrained spirit.
Now that he saw Zhuge's divine power showing off again, silencing everyone in the capital, he was quite envious.
But Xu Xing, who seemed extremely excited along the way, didn't have much expression at this moment. He just glanced in the direction of the capital and walked forward again.
——Further ahead is the border of Dali.
"Brother Tie, let's go, don't keep Mr. Zhuge waiting."
While Tie Shou was shocked by Zhuge's feat, Xu Xing had already realized the deep meaning behind Zhuge's move.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The reason why this Shenhou, who has always kept a low profile, is so public is just to attract the attention of Cai Jing and others, to reduce the trouble for Xu Tafa as much as possible, so that he can have more time and energy to complete the "True Form Dharma Body" .
But with this move, Zhuge Zheng and I will face many times more open and hidden arrows, wind and frost swords than before.
Xu Xing was naturally able to feel the old Shenhou's unspoken ardent expectations and sincere intentions from Zhuge Zhengwo's actions.
Therefore, he no longer intends to waste any time and perfect the "true body" as soon as possible so that he can return to the capital as soon as possible and fight side by side with Zhuge.
Seeing Xu Xing, who had always been sunny and cheerful, with such a serious look on his face, Tie Shou naturally figured out the key and felt even more heavy in his heart.
The two stopped no longer, and after a brief supply break, they began to collect information about the mission.
Although only a few old friends of Zhuge should know about Wu Yazi's end, Ding Chunqiu, the traitor who brought Wu Yazi to such a predicament, is still alive.
This "Xingxiu Old Immortal" has been living better and better day by day since he betrayed the Xiaoyao Sect. Not only did he become a guest of the "time-honored" Wen family in Lingnan with his poison skills, but he also formed an alliance with the "terrifying general" who was in charge of the dangerous city. It opened up the huge foundation of the Xingxiu Sect.
It can be said that in this world of the Northern Song Dynasty where Masters Wen and Masters Jin were mixed, Ding Chunqiu completely got rid of the "old devil clown" position that everyone shouted about in "Dragon Babu". A powerful overlord.
In this regard, Xu Xing could only sigh:
As expected of Master Wen's world, as long as you are bad enough, you will never be afraid of not finding like-minded people.
While sighing with emotion, Xu Xing also grinned and smiled wildly.
——What I love to kill most in my life are things like you. It would be so convenient if we get together.
After some inquiries, the two found out that the men of the General and the Xingxiu Sect were indeed one day ahead of them. They came to Dali Kingdom with great fanfare. They seemed to be preparing to organize their men to turn Wuliang Mountain upside down and find Wuyazi. Come.
However, the leaders of the two factions have not yet appeared publicly. It is not known whether they have sneaked into Wuliang Mountain to take charge of the overall situation, or whether they are still lurking under the water, waiting for the opportunity.
In addition to Ding Chunqiu's Xingxiu Sect, the General's Dalian Alliance, and the "Seven Ultimate Swords" that had long since sneaked into Dali and became worshiped by the Gao family in Dali, there was another faction worth paying attention to.
Rather than saying "a group of people", it is better to say that it is a master.
He is Jiumozhi, the "King of Great Wheel" who came to Dali to obtain the "Six Meridians Divine Sword Sutra".
The appearance of Jiumozhi did not surprise Xu Xing, but the achievements of this "Dalun Mingwang" in this world were far more powerful than those in the original "Dragon Babu".
It is said that this man gained enlightenment at Dalun Temple in the Snow Mountains. He once defeated the masters of the five major branches of Tantric Buddhism "red, white, yellow, flower, and black" with one against five. From this, he became powerful in the western border and gained " The name "Dachakra Mingwang" symbolizes his great supernatural power that can eliminate all karma and transcend the law.
You must know that Wen Ruian's series of tantric masters have always emerged in endlessly, and they even have miraculous mental abilities that transcend ordinary martial arts principles.
But Jiumozhi was still able to unify the esoteric sects of the Western Regions under the name of "King Maharaja", which shows how high his martial arts and skills were.
The "enhanced version" of Jiumozhi who traveled thousands of miles to obtain the "Six Meridians Divine Sword" naturally has wonderful features that the original work does not have.
The purpose of the Six Meridians Divine Sword in this comprehensive martial arts world is to sublimate divine will into sword intent and refine internal energy into sword energy.
When the two are combined, they can form a real sword gang, which can move freely and horizontally within a ten-foot range, indestructible and indestructible, and can easily separate gold and jade.
If you practice to the state of "Six Swords Gathering Together", you will be able to use the six swords to kill enemies. In terms of power, it will never lose to the legendary "Innate Body-Breaking Invisible Sword Qi", and may even be better than it.
It is said that when Jiumozhi first arrived at Tianlong Temple, he used the magical skill of "Flame Sword" to defeat the six eminent monks of Tianlong Temple with one against six.
At the critical moment, it was the Prince of Zhennan of Dali who took action, using the Shangyang Sword that had been cultivated to the level of "Jiangang", combined with the power of six eminent monks and eight people including Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun, to defeat this "Great Wheel". King Ming" forced him out of Tianlong Temple.
After this defeat, Jiumozhi did not leave Dali. Instead, he was invited into the palace by Dali Prime Minister Gao Shengtai, who was even more powerful than the Duan royal family. He never appeared in public again.
People in Dali are spreading rumors that the Prime Minister is taking this opportunity to win over this rare master and directly seek power and usurp the throne.
However, in the eyes of Xu Xing and Tie Shou, it is hard to say whether Jiumozhi was involved in seeking power and usurping the throne, but at least they should have reached an agreement on Wu Yazi.
"Ling Jingwei is Cai Jing's man, Ding Chunqiu has a close relationship with him, Gao Shengtai is also behind Cai Jing, and Jiumozhi has entered the Gaofu..."
As he spoke, Tie Shou's tone was a little heavy, but his expression and posture were still determined to move forward.
The two of them, tired travelers, were now sitting in a country inn at the foot of Wuliang Mountain, drinking water and supplies while discussing countermeasures.
"It seems like this will be a tough battle."
“There aren’t many people, so do you and I need to take action?”
After Xu Xing counted the masters with his fingers, not only did he not feel any pressure, but he smiled sincerely.
Then, he raised his head and looked at the end of the country road with the simple expression of an old farmer looking at the crop fields. He was full of expectation and said sincerely:
"Now, I am really looking forward to seeing what kind of master the general will send. Ling Jingwei, please don't let me down..."
Soon, the answer Xu Xing wanted appeared in front of him.
