Chapter 234: A Warlock
"You are also a first-class powerhouse, and you are a high-ranking person, so you can't have a little backbone?"
When Li Shimin saw Sima Jianqiu's appearance, he couldn't help but feel anger and hatred in his heart again.
His third brother Li Xuanba, who should have been a hero of the world, was indeed in the hands of such a villain.
"I'm a martial artist in the rivers and lakes, what kind of royal rank is it? This ability, any second- or third-grade general in your army can take me down. β
After Sima Jianqiu smiled bitterly, his expression was a little relieved: "Anyway! Since the incident in Tongguan, I have been in fear and panic every day. Now, as expected, it still fell into the hands of the martial arts Li family. β
"If you knew this was the case, why did you bother in the first place?"
Li Shimin still looked at this person coldly: "Didn't you think about the consequences before you started?"
When Sima Jianqiu heard this, he couldn't help but sigh again: "Why haven't you thought about it? But I, Sima Jianqiu, am controlled by others, and I can't help myself, so I have to do it." At that time, I never thought that your strength would be so strong that you would actually fight with us to that point. and Tsinghua Yuanjun, who also happened to appear at that time. We originally thought that as long as our hands and feet were clean this time, we would be able to get out safely. No matter how strong the martial arts Li is, if he doesn't know who the murderer is, he can only punch the air. Not to mention me, even those plotters couldn't think of it either. β
"The plotter?"
Li Shimin raised his eyebrows slightly: "Do you know who they are?"
"I know a little bit about it, and one of them is the Gu Chengyun next to him. This person belongs to an organization called the 'Eight Heavens', one of the so-called asuras. He has a very high status, and is one of the four great asura kings of the asuras, and is called the name of King Poyazhi by their organization. β
Speaking of this, Sima Jianqiu seemed helpless, and seemed to explain with a little pleading: "My children and wives are now in their hands. β
Li Shimin had been paying attention to the golden needles on his head, and found that there had been no movement at the end of the needles. It can be seen that this person is indeed telling the truth.
However, he did not have the slightest mercy, this person killed people for his family and children, but Xuanba and the people who died in the battle that day were innocent?
This person is working for the tiger. Folklore holds that those who are bitten to death by a tiger will also have their ghosts help the tiger to hurt people, and are called ghosts. In fact, it means that those who have been hurt by the wicked will in turn help the wicked.
So he ignored it: "What about the others except this Gu Chengyun?"
Sima Jianqiu saw that his expression was cold and unmoved, and he knew that his vitality had been cut off today, and his face couldn't help but turn gray: "The other two, I don't know." I only know that one of them must be from a powerful family in the DPRK. The other two also have a close relationship with him and listen to his orders. β
"Who was the powerful man of the day, and how did you know that he was the powerful person of the central government?"
"It's the First Rank Sorcerer!"
Sima Jianqiu recalled the situation of that day: "He once untied a gourd on his waist to drink water. It was a purple gold inlaid jade gourd, in the Kaihuang period, made by the inner government, a total of only forty-eight, by the first emperor to give the ministers. I like it, and I happen to recognize it. Knowing that this kind of purple gold gourd, because of the expensive materials, and from the hands of famous craftsmen, the carving is exquisite, so the price is expensive, and it has been flowing into the market for more than ten years, and there are only seven in total. β
When Li Shimin heard this, he was not only slightly stunned, but because he remembered such a purple gold inlaid jade gourd, their family also had one.
In addition, the first two of them were respectful to him, and they looked like they were his family's worship martial cultivators. Also, although he deliberately disguised it, it was indeed a Kansai accent that could be used. has a certain demeanor, just by looking at it, you know that he must be from a big family, just like you, son. β
"And then tell me everything you know. β
"At that time, the two people under his command also used a kind of elixir. It was obviously two second-grade generals, but after taking the pill, they became a first-grade martial cultivator with mediocre strength, which was very strange. β
Sima Jianqiu pondered: "I have also seen the dragon phase and the Qianmin woman in their eight heavens. But at that time, they were all covered with their faces, and they couldn't see their faces clearly. But I probably know that Long Xiang is an impulsive young man, with a similar height to Gongzi, and his body is very burly. As for Qianminpo, it should be a young and beautiful woman, I listened to their words, this woman seems to be very famous in the north, what is it - by the way, a while ago, almost every ten days, a group of middle-aged men and women were sent here, gathered to a hundred people, and then sent away, I don't know where to go. It wasn't until more than twenty days ago that it stopped. That's all I know, nothing more,"
Li Shimin didn't expect that he would be able to dig something out of this Sima Jianqiu's mouth.
He had already judged that this was just a tool pawn, but he was afraid that he would not know too much useful information, but the result was unexpected, this Sima Jianqiu's observation was not bad, allowing him to get several clues that might be useful,
"You're pretty cheerful!"
Li Shimin asked curiously: "With a heart like yours, why didn't they choose to kill you?"
"They don't have people, and they have a place to use me. And do you think they don't?"
Sima Jianqiu's voice was weak: "Look at my eyebrows, is there a cloud of black qi? They have planted a poisonous Gu called the Blood Corpse Heart Eater on me. As long as this Gu worm judges that my situation is not good, is restrained by others, or is unable to move, it will attack from time to time, directly devouring my brain and cutting off my life. But your means are even higher, and you can actually poison this bloody corpse heart eater first. As for why I'm so happy-"
He raised his head and glanced at Li Shimin: "I don't want to die, I still love my family, but I know that I can't live today, so I just want to die quickly." You have a method of coercing confessions, which makes me suffer a lot, and sooner or later you will tell me what I know, so why resist. I only hope that Gongzi still has a little mercy, if my family can still survive in this world, please help them for the sake of me making you so trouble-free. β
"I'll try my best!"
After Li Shimin finished saying this, he looked at the direction of the pine tree.
- Compared to the peace here, there is much more bloody over there, and Yuwen Chengdu's cruel methods make the flesh and blood splash under the pine tree.
But that Gu Chengyun is extremely hard, no matter how Yuwen Chengdu tosses, he doesn't say a word.
Li Shimin had no choice but to fall into contemplation on the spot.
Eight Heavens?
These eight heavens - if they correspond to the eight heavenly dragons in Buddhism. Then its wide manpower and great power may not be inferior to the Zhengyi Eight Pulses.
Among the Buddhist sects, there are four Asura kings, one is called Bhayazhi, which means Yongjian, and is the former commander of the Asura army that fought against Shakti, one is Luo Qianda, which means roaring like thunder, also known as broad shoulders, because its two shoulders are broad, it can make the sea turbulent and roar like thunder, one is called Vimalitara, which means wreath, and its shape has nine heads, each head has a thousand eyes, nine hundred and ninety hands, eight legs, and spits fire in the mouth, and one is called Rahu, which means to cover the obstacles, because it can cover the light of the sun and the moon with a giant hand.
In other words, just among the Asuras, there are four second-grade powerhouses like Gu Chengyun.
And if this one relies on the 'Nine Transformations Soul Chaser' and a quasi-king-level battle armor, he can be among the Asura Kings. Then the strength of the other three may be far more than the second-grade realm.
There is also the purple gold inlaid jade gourd, which is also a clue, after going back this time, you can check whose hands these gourds are.
Only forty-eight were made that year, which meant that he could narrow down his suspicions to forty-eight. As far as he knew, among the forty-eight nobles at that time, seven had already perished and disappeared in these years, such as the Shi Wansui family, the He Ruobi family, etc., all of which no longer existed.
But I can't let it go, that first-grade warlock is likely to be the descendant of these peopleββ,
Li Shimin waited for a long time before Yuwen Chengdu was willing to exchange with him, and walked towards Sima Jianqiu with a bloody body. makes the latter, the pupils shrink violently,
Li Shimin didn't look at him: "Since there is a 'Golden Needle Fixing Technique', why do you have to do it so bloody?"
He didn't believe that the gray-clothed man named 'Ziyun' hadn't told Yuwen Chengdu about the interrogation techniques of the 'Golden Needle Fixing Technique'.
"I know!"
Yuwen Chengdu still responded coldly: "It's just to vent my anger, I want to know something, I already know it." β
Li Shimin was stunned, then shook his head and walked to the front of the pine tree.
"It seems that I can't get you to open your mouth no matter what means I can?"
Gu Chengyun closed his eyes and didn't answer, as if he was dead,
Li Shimin was not surprised, and continued to ask: "Yang Xuan, King of Qi, does he have a handle in your hands, so he has to clean up the tail of your hands for you?"
He lagged behind, and saw that the ends of the golden needles were gradually turning black.
The magic of the 'Golden Needle Fixation Technique' lies here, as long as he says something that Gu Chengyun wants to conceal, or is unwilling to answer, these golden needles will react accordingly.
So even if the other party is reluctant to speak, they can torture some things they want to know.
Li Shimin waited for a while, and waited until those golden needles returned to their normal color, and then continued to speak: "Then the king of Qi, Yang Xuan, planned something, but he wants to kill the king?"
This time, the color of the golden needle did not change, and Li Shimin was about to continue to ask: "In short, it is related to the palace, since it is not a murderer, then his target must be the three emperors and grandsons!"
In the end, he said in a sure tone.
