Chapter 238: Jinguancheng (3)
Uncle Wu Ran, I just saw you shaking the copper bell casually, and these six corpses got the order, and at the same time made an accurate response. How did you do that?What kind of instructions do you represent?" Wu Zong followed Wu Ran, half a step behind him, and respectfully asked.
"I have already planted Gu worms in the bodies of these corpses, and the message sent by my rattle is not for the corpses, but for the Gu worms in their bodies. When the Gu worm hears the bell, it will manipulate the corpse to react accordingly. Wu Ran took out the bronze bell from his arms and asked Wu Zong to take a good look at it: "I will tell you one by one about the different instructions represented by the rattle method." When it's time to face the enemy, you only need to follow the bell command you hear, blend in with the six corpses and react in the same way as them, and you will definitely be able to confuse the enemy's sight, so that you can see the right time to deliver a fatal blow to the opponent. ”
"Yes, Uncle Shi. Please take the time to teach. Wu Zong's attitude was respectful and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.
The two of them were in front, and the six corpses were behind, slowly walking towards the outside of the small cave. Along the way, Wu Ran kept whispering and whispering, and from time to time he held the copper bell to demonstrate to Wu Zong how to give each command, such as controlling the strength of the rattle, changing the size of the bell, or speeding up or slowing down the frequency of the rattle, and even wrapping the bell with witch power, so as to change the timbre of the copper bell in a very small range, and so on.
This made Wu Zong amazed, and he kept complimenting Wu Ran. The horses were shot extremely beautifully, and the command method of these six corpses and copper bells was all Wu Ran's efforts in the past three hundred years, and he was quite proud of it, and the more he talked along the way, the more energetic he became, chattering non-stop.
These two people were walking on the way out of Xiaodongtian, and at this time, it was not very peaceful in Jinguan City outside Xiaodongtian. Two days ago, the iron guards of the inn came here to carry out the task of rescuing several old Dao Masters of Longhu Mountain, but who would have thought that after coming here, they would meet with their iron guard partners who had lurked in the city earlier, only to find that the difficulty of completing this task was so high that it exceeded expectations.
As for the reason, although it is a bit detouring, it is not very puzzling. It is mainly due to the lack of uniformity of information.
The old Taoist leaders led by Zhang Shutong in Longhu Mountain heard that the ancient fierce beast was in the sky above the Jinjiang River in Jinguan City a few days ago, and suspected that the three mysterious people who appeared in the sky at the same time as the Lich Clan, they rushed all the way from Longhu Mountain to Jinguan City, intending to investigate.
And from Longhu Mountain to the imperial capital to find the master to no avail, and followed the three people who met in the imperial capital Wushuang and Huangfu Yi and other three people to Yannan City Yuqing Palace, Ziliang Zihua two little Taoist priests, in Yannan City inn branch heard the news that the master was rescued from the imperial capital by the inn master, and then informed the inn that several of his uncles went to Jinguan City. It doesn't matter if you don't say it, this one is a little fried. Even if the inn decided that Zhang Shu and a few other Taoists had arrived in Jinguan City, if they really confronted the people of the Lich Clan, they would definitely be dead, so they immediately issued a notice, so that the iron guards lurking in Jinguan City were ready to intercept a few old Taoist priests who had entered the city to check, and at the same time, for the sake of safety, they also sent a part of those who had already returned to the inn headquarters to come to Jinguan City to respond.
Wu Chen and another Tianzi Iron Guard, led five Earth Character Iron Guards, including his subordinates Ji Yu and Ying Lang, and ten Xuanzi Iron Guards, including Ying Cang and Ji Day, to Jinguan City, and after meeting with the local lurking Iron Guard partners, they came to a disappointing conclusion - After receiving the message from the inn headquarters, the iron guards lurking in Jinguan City immediately divided into two parts, one part dispersed and guarded around Jinguan City, preparing to intercept several Dao Masters of Longhu Mountain who might be coming, and the other part assumed that the Dao Chiefs of Longhu Mountain had arrived in Jinguan City, and began to secretly search for Dao Masters who might have entered Jinguan City in the city.
However, until Wu Chen and the other guards arrived here from the inn, these iron guard companions neither waited outside the city nor found them in the city. This made everyone a little confused.
Under normal circumstances, it would be too simple to avoid this situation, and even in the current situation, it is not completely impossible. As long as you have contact information, as long as you have a mobile phone to contact, you can save a lot of effort, but it's a pity that those Taoist seniors in Longhu Mountain don't use mobile phones, and they don't have them with them at all, so they can't be contacted.
Since this conventional method cannot be linked, it can only be used in the original way. Search, carpet search, the iron guards of the inn carefully hide their identities from being discovered by the Lich Clan, and at the same time maintain communication with each other, quietly scattered in every corner of Jinguan City.
After another day of searching to no avail, some of the guards questioned it. This part of the iron guards thinks that it is possible that the Dao Masters of Longhu Mountain did not come to this Jinguan City, perhaps because the information is wrong. Or maybe the Dao Masters of Dragon and Tiger Mountain had indeed arrived in Jinguan City, but at an unknown time for their own personnel, they were poisoned by the Lich Clan.
Based on either of these two possibilities, it is possible to create such a situation that is not found today.
In response to these two kinds of questions raised by this part of the people, Ying Cang gave another completely different answer: first of all, he refuted the first possibility, that is, the Taoist chief of Longhu Mountain came to Jinguan City to investigate the news, which was said by the two little Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, and when they were in the Heavenly Master's Mansion, they also saw several senior uncles go out. Therefore, doubts about the truth of this news can be thrown away completely.
And then there's the second one, even if a few of the old Dao Elders were poisoned by the Lich Clan in the city, then why was it poisoned?
Naturally, he didn't hide his whereabouts and was detected by the Lich Clan.
Okay, that's right. The key is to conceal your whereabouts. The purpose of several veteran Dao Elders here is not to fight the Lich Clan, but to investigate the situation. They are not stupid, and naturally know how to hide their whereabouts.
Therefore, if you can't wait for the answer, the answer that you can't find will come. That's because the Dao Masters of Dragon and Tiger Mountain also knew that the consequences of being discovered by the Lich Clan were extremely dangerous, so they disguised themselves before entering the city, sneaked into Jinguan City, and secretly checked. Instead of wearing a conspicuous uniform, wandering around the streets.
"And how do you say you're going to find them?" asked Ying Cang.
"I have no choice but to search through the carpet. Ying Cang spread his hands helplessly. "The inn has collected information about all the cultivators in the Night World, including the monks, and those old Dao Masters of Dragon and Tiger Mountain are no exception. We've all seen their photos when we took on this mission. Therefore, at the moment, everyone can only disperse, and under the condition of ensuring their own safety and not being detected by the lich clan, they will search every corner of the city, and look for them in the vast sea of people according to the memory of the photos and appearances of several old Taoist leaders. ”
"I hear you. Wu Chen glanced at everyone: "Just look for it, let's continue to act!"
The guards poured out of their nests again, scattered and hidden in the crowd of people in the city.
