Chapter 282: Threat
After Xu Wen was petrified, Yu Wu stretched out his hand and pressed it on the skull, but there was no abnormal movement, and Xu Wen's body gradually softened after petrification, and he became a living person again in a blink of an eye.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and after a while, Ai Mingxuan swallowed his saliva with difficulty and said: "This is really unbelievable, Brother Yu has such an artifact, no wonder he dares to put Han Daxian in his eyes." ”
Yu Wu smiled proudly and said, "This is not some kind of pretending to be a ghost, but a genuine spell. As long as the King of Yizhou can provide me with a steady stream of what I need, then I can also get rid of the people he cares about for the King of Yizhou, and I can do it without knowing it. Because after petrification, the memory of petrification will not exist. ”
Ai Mingxuan's eyes lit up and said: "If this is the case, as soon as Brother Yu makes a move, even if it is an army of thousands of people, it will not be an opponent." ”
Yu Wu waved his hand slightly and said, "Immortals have immortal rules, and we are not allowed to participate in mortal affairs." Therefore, many things can only be helped by the king, otherwise if it is spread out, it will be unfavorable to the immortals, so they dare not be blatant, and can only be carried out in secret. ”
Fang Ling secretly said that this person is still a little cautious, it is true that if he starts a big killing, it will inevitably attract the attention of the disciples of the mortal immortal sect, and the news reaches the ears of the Zhenguo Heavenly Master, this guy is only afraid that he will only be hunted down.
Ai Mingxuan nodded again and again: "Yes, there are many people, and it is inevitable that it is easy to leak the news, but even if it is just an assassination, it can be called wonderful." Speaking of this, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, "Actually, I am currently assisting the Western generals to prepare for the attack on the five towns of Dingzhou, I don't know if Brother Yu knows about the northern generals being ambushed by the king of Shicheng with three thousand soldiers?"
Yu Wu nodded and said, "I've heard of this, and I heard that the King of Yizhou is quite angry. ”
Ai Mingxuan bowed his head and said: "The king can be said to hate the king of Shicheng to the core, and now this matter is even more inflammatory, I think if Brother Yu can show his magic and bring the king of Shicheng directly to Yizhou after petrification, the king will definitely be happy, and he will agree to any conditions." ”
Yu Wu couldn't help but laugh happily and said, "Brother Ai's proposal is good, then let's find a good time to meet the King of Stone City for a while!"
Ai Mingxuan sneered: "The ambush battle of the King of Shicheng made the Gu family's army leaderless and famous, and now I will give him a way to repay others, so that he also knows that our Yizhou country cannot be underestimated." ”
Fang Ling's brows sank when he heard this, this Ai Mingxuan was ruthless enough, he actually came up with such a poisonous trick, and let Yu Wu use a cornucopia against himself, if he didn't hear it, then he would only be captured alive at that time.
Seeing that the group was about to leave with a smile and talk, Fang Ling immediately retreated backwards, and just after crossing the wooden bridge, he saw someone coming from another wooden bridge, and he hurriedly ran to the edge of the waterfall behind the stone house and hidden.
When Ai Mingxuan and the others came to the stone house, Yu Wu's apprentices were all there, nine junior brothers, Xu Wen, who had the highest cultivation, had reached the peak stage of the Qi Melting Realm, and the rest of the apprentices ranged from the Rigid Force Realm to the stable stage of the Melting Qi Realm, which was unmatched in the eyes of those of the same age.
Ai Mingxuan couldn't help but praise again and again, and if he laid down the package ticket, he would definitely let the ten Yu Wu masters and apprentices live a comfortable life in Yizhou Country.
The biggest difference between cultivating in the mortal world and cultivating in the immortal gate is the supply of materials, the immortal gate has a special disciple to collect various medicinal materials to refine pills, as an aid to cultivation, and distribute them to the disciples, but in the mortal world, it is impossible to go up the mountain and go to the sea to collect rare medicinal materials with the strength of a few people, and a lot of wealth and energy must be consumed.
Therefore, for Yu Wu, if he can be attached to the king of Yizhou, then all kinds of materials can be easily obtained, and for Ai Mingxuan, being able to introduce Yu Wu to the king of Yizhou is also of key significance to his career, and the two have a small relationship, which can be described as an instant hit.
After Yu Wu's apprentices showed off their martial arts, Ai Mingxuan nodded again and again, praised him, and then entered the stone house with Yu Wu, Yu Wu took out a few pots of good wine, and chatted with Ai Mingxuan.
After drinking a few pots of wine, the things that the two of them talked about naturally shifted to the war on the border of Dingzhou, and Fang Ling hid by the jungle of the pool, and he could hear every word.
Of course, the two of them didn't expect that there were outsiders here, let alone that the King of Shicheng, who was about to deal with, would be unguarded when they spoke.
Fang Ling listened silently, not counting Qingzuka City, the troops of the other four towns in Dingzhou each town had tens of thousands of horses, a total of 40,000 horses.
The number of troops in Yizhou on the border of Xuzhou corresponding to the four towns reached 50,000, but it was revealed from Ai Mingxuan's mouth that in fact, part of the troops in Xuzhou that had been incorporated had been increased to 70,000, and the hidden 20,000 horses were enough to affect the battle situation.
The pressure on Qingzuka City was even greater, with 10,000 defenders plus Fang Ling's 3,000 men and horses facing Gu Ziyun's 50,000 troops.
Ai Mingxuan said: "The border of Xuzhou is jointly garrisoned by the northern generals and the western generals, and the king of Yizhou once ordered that whoever can capture the first town of the five towns is the first meritorious person to attack Dingzhou." Gu Shaofeng was young and vigorous, so he wanted to attack the city without reorganizing his troops, so he was attacked by the King of Shicheng. ”
Yu Wu said: "Then Brother Ai, you are assisting the Western generals, I am afraid that you are going to show your skills." ”
Ai Mingxuan said confidently: "It's not a problem to capture the first city, the four major clans of these five towns have their own contradictions, people's hearts are unstable, the four towns seem to be solid, but they are all isolated, as long as they attack with multiple soldiers and horses, they will definitely be captured." However, compared to capturing the first city, capturing the king of Shicheng alive is a great achievement. ”
Yu Wu agreed: "Then I don't know if Brother Ai has thought of a suitable time?"
Ai Mingxuan said conceitedly: "It is unlikely that the King of Shicheng wants to settle the generals of the four cities, the only way is to go to Yizhou City to find Yuan Dekang, the assassin of Dingzhou, to help reconcile, and it is possible to gather the four masters, but it is too dangerous to do it in Yizhou City, so it is best for us to do it on his way back to Qingzuka City, even the King of Shicheng will never guess our intentions." ”
Yu Wu couldn't help but bow his head slightly and said: "Brother Ai is really resourceful, no wonder he can become the king's right-hand man." Speaking of this, his eyes lit up and said, "Why don't we leave tomorrow morning, you and I will go to the land of Yizhou City together, and wait until the queen of Shicheng is captured alive and leave with a swagger, this ambush in the land of Dingzhou is really to return the body of others." ”
Ai Mingxuan also laughed and said: "Since Brother Yu has said so, then how can I not go to watch this good show? Tomorrow should be just right at this time, even if the King of Shicheng sets off after receiving the holy decree, he has just arrived in Yizhou City today, and we rushed over to intercept and kill him halfway." ”
When the two discussed this, Ai Mingxuan asked the guards to take out the map of Dingzhou, carefully analyzed the distance of Fang Ling from Yizhou to Qingzuka City, and finally set a remote and dangerous place as an ambush site.
Then, Yu Wu and the others came out of the stone house, and went to the other side along the wooden bridge to have lunch, and as soon as everyone left, Fang Ling stood up from outside the pool, and a few cold sweats couldn't help but ooze from his forehead, as if he had just walked from the field of life and death.
If he hadn't heard about this with his own ears, he was afraid that this time it would be really a small life, and at first he did come out of his mind to go directly to Yizhou City to discuss with the four masters, and use Yuan Dekang to exert pressure, but after listening to Mo Xiang's suggestion, he decided to come to explore the mystery of petrification.
Fortunately, he took this move, and fortunately, Ai Mingxuan was wrong, and even he ignored that he was riding a red-blooded BMW, and his foot range was much faster than that of ordinary horses.
However, now there is a big problem to be solved, with his current strength, if he wants to kill Ai Ming or Yu Wu, he has little chance of winning, so if he can't kill them, then their ambush must be carried out. However, with this cornucopia, even if you set up an ambush halfway, you don't know how many people will be sacrificed, and God knows how many souls the cornucopia has absorbed and how many people it can kill over the centuries.
Just now, I already learned from Yu Wu's mouth that he had mastered the cornucopia and became the master of this magic weapon, which meant that only he could use this magic weapon. Just like the cunding, it is impossible for anyone to use it, only with the movement of their own mind, it can open up space.
However, if the cornucopia is destroyed, although it can save the lives of the four princes, it will startle the snake. In this way, as soon as Yu Wu and Ai Mingxuan returned to the Yizhou army, they would still pose a threat to themselves.
If you don't destroy the cornucopia and leave, then you can't save the four princes, and naturally you won't be able to subdue the four great families.
Fang Ling's brows furrowed deeply from these two dilemmas, and finally he simply didn't want to, he walked along the wooden bridge to the cave hall of the cornucopia, and then followed one of the stone paths to the inside of the gold mine, and after groping all the way, he actually found a way to walk, and then came to the underground river, and saw two stone figures still in a petrified state.
He didn't forget to probe the bodies of the two of them again, and his heart was secretly taken aback, the qi of heaven and earth surrounding the hearts of the two of them was significantly reduced, and only a slight wisp remained, as if it might disappear at any time.
He secretly said that it is not good, although the heart will be protected by the qi of heaven and earth when he is petrified, but as time goes by, the qi of heaven and earth will become weaker and weaker, and once it disappears, even if the cornucopia is destroyed, it will not be able to save the two of them.
Fang Ling hurriedly took out the Cun Ding, entered the Cun Ding space, and told Huo Junyuan all this thing.
Huo Junyuan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: "I have heard a lot of the legend of the cornucopia for my brother, but I didn't expect it to come from the hands of the Tianhua Sect, it seems that this evil sect is really deep-rooted in the mortal world, I am afraid that in a few years, the Tianhua Sect will make waves in the cultivation world again." ”
Fang Ling Zhengse asked: "Big brother, now that we know that it is a cornucopia of chaos, will we be able to save the lives of the four people if we destroy the cornucopia?"
