Chapter 72: Shizhou Bridge (End of this volume)
Qin Baopu looked up at the swaying light and shadow on the top of the stone, sighed long, and said: "At that time, although I was surrounded, but fortunately, I also knew some secret techniques and tricks that other people didn't know. After that, I kept asking about Zoroastrianism, but for decades, I didn't get much information about them, and I haven't seen Cher again. ”
Ning Jiang pondered for a long time and said, "The predecessor just mentioned the 'Goddess of Good'......"
Qin Baopu said: "Regarding this matter, I later heard that in Zoroastrianism, there is a dualism of good and evil, but there are some similarities with the Tai Chi theory of my Daomen. Their teachings are extremely strict, and I heard that under the 'female honor', there are two 'goddesses', one is the goddess of good and the other is the goddess of evil. However, I don't know if the woman I saw that day was really the goddess of good in Zoroastrianism, and no matter how much I tried to do it, I still knew very little about Zoroastrianism. ”
In the depths of the stone tomb, there was silence......
***
Although he knew Qin Baopu's past, Ning Jiang obviously couldn't do anything for him. And after so many years, even Qin Baopu himself has already given up, or rather, even if he finds his daughter, what can he do? Killing his daughter to avenge his family?
The sky fell and Ning Jiang handed it over to Qin Wuyan to put away temporarily.
That evening, after learning that he was going to leave early tomorrow morning, the "empty ghost" Qin Ze came to Ning Jiang to bow down, and Ning Jiang helped him up and asked him what was important.
Qin Ze said: "My father-in-law is old, if we all leave, I am afraid that if my father-in-law is lost and no one takes care of him, I hope that the master can allow the villain to stay and take care of his father-in-law temporarily, and then go to the capital in the future to serve the master." ”
Ning Jiang smiled: "This is your loyalty, how can I refuse?" ”
So he left Qin Ze behind, and on the second day, he and his sister left with white-faced ghosts, crucible ghosts, Wuyan ghosts, and Linglong ghosts.
When they were descending the mountain, Qin Baopu sat in a wheelchair, on the mountainside, looking at the back of Ning Jiang who was coming down the mountain, and sighed.
Qin Ze pushed the wheelchair behind him and said, "Father-in-law, what are you thinking?" ”
Qin Baopu said: "The god of grains is immortal, it is called Xuanqi. The gate of Xuanmu is the root of heaven and earth...... Now that this son is out, what will Na Cang be? ”
……

On the day of the "heavy snowfall", Shizhou Bridge did not actually snow.
Although there is no snow, the weather is very cold, the weather is cold, there are not many pedestrians on the Shizhou Bridge, an ox cart slowly passes by the bridge, the Wuding River under the bridge, the water is bubbling, in this depressed season, carelessly run downstream.
In a town in the distance, there was an old courtyard, and at this moment, Ning Jiang was lying on the bed. Qin Wuyan sat on the edge of the bed, covered a face on his face, and used his dexterous fingers to constantly knead and pat his face.
This is the "face" of the poisonous son.
When he was in Luo Jieling, Ning Jiang had already asked Qin Wuyan to peel off the face of the poisonous prince and make it into a human skin mask.
Of course, there are still many restrictions on this kind of human skin mask, if it is used on Qin Wuyan's own face, because the secret technique called "raw water" that she has practiced since she was a child can be used for a long time, and when used on other people's faces, each human skin mask can only be used once, and usually after two or three days, the human skin mask will begin to change color, and if it is summer, it will start to rot.
Of course, Qin Wuyan is also proficient in some disguise methods that can change a person's appearance without using a human skin mask, but this kind of disguise method is difficult to turn into another "person who already exists".
For example, if you don't use the face of the poisonous son, although Qin Wuyan can also use the disguise technique to make Ning Jiang look seven or eight points like the poisonous child, it is extremely difficult to make people completely unrecognizable.
Although the human skin mask of the "Poison Prince" can only be used this time when it is used on his face, Ning Jiang originally did not plan to use it all the time.
At the other end, Xiaomeng was sitting at the table, seeing that it was getting dark, Qin Xiaoya came up with a basket of steamed buns. Xiaomeng picked up a bun, tore it open, and looked left and right.
The little girl whispered, "Girl...... Beef stuffing! ”
Ning Xiaomeng: "............ Oh! ”
Ning Jiang got up, came to the mirror, looked left and right, and at this moment, judging from his appearance alone, he was already exactly the same as the poisonous son. Then, Qin Wuyan helped him change his clothes again.
Xiaomeng said uneasily: "Brother, I'll go with you?" ”
Ning Jiang said: "No! ”
Xiaomeng hurriedly said: "In case ......"
Looking at the worried eyes of Xiaomeng and the others, Ning Jiang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way to protect myself." ”
Immediately afterwards, he called Qin Mo and Qin Kan in, and after the order, Qin Mo and Qin Kan left. Immediately afterwards, Ning Jiang looked at the sky and saw that it was already dark, so he went out from the backyard, left the town, and came to the Shizhou Bridge. The cold wind blew across the bridge, making his face ach, the moonlight in the sky, lonely, and the distant mountains in the night, outlining a vague shadow.
He waited here for a long time, until midnight, and when he thought he had mistaken the information and was about to give up, a figure sneaked over from the other side of the bridge, took out a blood-colored diamond-shaped crystal from his pocket, and said something completely incomprehensible.
Ning Jiang immediately knew that the worst thing he had expected had happened, this person didn't look at his face, in other words, for this "liaison" who was standing in front of Ning Jiang now, it didn't matter who the person who connected with him was, he might even know nothing, he only recognized the token and the joint code.
However, although Ning Jiang had a "token", that is, the diamond-shaped crystal he took from the poisonous son, he didn't know the joint code.
Despite this, Ning Jiang did not hesitate, flipped his hand, lifted the diamond-shaped crystal, and raised it between the person and his eyes. As soon as the man raised his head, he saw Ning Jiang's eyes, his eyes seemed to have a flash of light, and then he opened his mouth.
The man saw the token, and at the same time saw the young man standing in front of him, who opened his mouth as if to say something. He couldn't hear the young man's words clearly, but the staring gaze made him have a vague sense that the young man had already spoken the code.
So, the man turned his head, raised his hand, suddenly his face changed, turned his head suddenly, looked at Ning Jiang, pulled out his knife suddenly, and rushed towards Ning Jiang.
With a bang, a ball of golden light burst out and shot at the man, who threw himself backwards and fell to the ground.
Ning Jiang threw the empty rainstorm pear flower needle in his hand, and the bamboo tube fell into the lake, splashing water. He folded his hands and sighed...... His soul dementorship may be useful for ordinary people, but for this kind of martial artist, it really doesn't have much effect.
He raised his head and looked in the direction that the man had just waved, and there, a figure had come out of the darkness, and when he saw a change on the bridge, he immediately turned around and ran, and disappeared into the darkness.
Ning Jiang walked to the other end of the bridge with his hands in his hands, and it didn't take long for a soft sound of "flutter" in the darkness in the distance. After a while, Qin Kan came out of the soil and held an object in his hand: "Master, this is something stolen from that person." "Just now he hid in the soil at the feet of the fugitive, and secretly used a trick to trip the man, and took the opportunity to steal the object from the man.
Ning Jiang took it and saw that it was a stack of paper rolls, he spread out the paper rolls, looked at them one by one, and was suddenly moved. Then he looked at Qin Kan: "You go to pick up Qin Mo and follow that person together, be careful and pay attention to safety." ”
Qin Kan said: "Yes! "Running away in the night......
***
Three days later-
"Zombie Gate, Wu Cheng?"
A luxury carriage, on the official road, headed for Haojing.
In the carriage, Qin Mo reported to Ning Jiangyu: "Exactly! I followed the man's instructions all the way, and the man climbed over two mountains, and joined the other in a ruined temple. It was only at that time that the man realized that he had lost something, and there was an argument in the temple, and the people in the temple killed the man. After dawn, the people in the temple left, suspicious and cautious along the way, if it weren't for the villain's daytime hiding technique, he would have been discovered by that person. Then, the man entered the county seat, and the villain continued to inquire in the dark, and learned that the person in the temple was the owner of the branch opened by the zombie gate in the county town, named Wu Cheng. ”
Ning Jiang groaned: "Zombie Sect ......" sounds like a ninth-rate sect.
Qin Mo said: "This zombie gate is not very famous, it belongs to the left side gate, but because of its main business, there are branches in all states and counties, and the general helm is located in the outer city of Haojing." ”
Ning Jiang said: "What is its main business?" ”
Qin Mo said: "Help the coffin, drive the corpse!" The zombie gate is proficient in the art of driving out corpses, but whenever there are wanderers, scholars, and Jianghu guests who have died in other places, the government will often transport the corpses back to their hometowns through the people of the zombie gate after verifying their identities and investigating the cause of death. Most of the corpse inns and Yizhuang in the states around Haojing are also their territory. ”
Ning Jiang sighed: "It is indeed a profession that can spread a net, but it is not noticed at all. He took the stack of papers from his sleeve: "Do you know what this is?" ”
Qin Mo, Qin Kan, and Qin Wuyan were by his side, looking at him together.
Ning Jiang spread out the scrolls of paper one by one: "What is recorded on these papers is the troops stationed in the Central Plains provinces, as well as the names and personalities of the commanders in various places, as well as the names and places where their families live. ”
Qin Mo, Qin Kan, and Qin Wuyan were all moved. This kind of thing almost fell into the hands of the poisonous son under Brother Xiling?
Qin Mo changed his color and said: "Could it be that the zombie gate is actually a spy hidden by the Miao people in the Central Plains?" ”
Ning Jiang said: "It's possible, but I don't think it's so simple." First of all, such information is by no means accessible to a single zombie door, and I am even sure that there must be someone among the high-ranking officials of the imperial court who is collecting these materials in order to do it in such detail. Secondly, that person is probably not from Brother Xiling, otherwise, they should have another way to pass on these materials to Xiling, instead of the poisonous prince coming to the Central Plains. I suspect that there are other forces behind this, secretly collecting this information and handing it over to the ambitious Xiling, and possibly the barbarians of the north. ”
He stared at the intelligence: "If I'm not mistaken...... Nine times out of ten, it's Zoroastrianism! ”
Qin Mo said: "But if you want a small one, start the investigation from that Wu Cheng?" ”
Ning Jiang shook his head and said, "It's useless!" Wu Cheng is at most a low-level person who is used, even if he is caught, he must not know anything, but it will make us startle. Wu Cheng's clue, we can't touch him again, and after entering Beijing, we will investigate the zombie gate from another direction, as well as the hidden forces behind the zombie gate. ”
He looked out the window, and at this moment, there were large snowflakes floating outside the window.
In his previous life, he had hardly any contact with Zoroastrianism, he was not interested in Zoroastrianism, and Zoroastrianism never came to trouble him.
But now, with the monster that ran out of Yuehu, with the appearance of the Skyfall Streamer, and with the unexpected appearance of the hidden forces of Zoroastrianism, it seems that his dealings with Zoroastrianism are ...... It will come sooner than expected.
That's it, the soldiers are coming, and the fire is coming...... It can only be flooded!
The carriage continued to move forward, and the mountains, with the rolling wheels, slowly retreated outside the window.
Haojing, the thousand-year-old ancient capital, is getting closer and closer to them, and the magnificent historical trend is also ...... to them Crazy surging ......
