By the time Yuan Xingchong arrived at the imperial city, the battle had already ended, and after all, he couldn't leave the thousand knights on the road alone, and his speed was greatly delayed. So he hurriedly entered the palace to meet Wu Zetian and told him about the situation of fighting with the snake spirit and his party at Luoshui Weir.

Yang Siqiao also hurriedly returned to the palace to find his father-in-law Yang Jingchen to treat his injuries. Although on the way, Li Rong injected the soft water true qi in his body to help him suppress the strength of the Seven Injuries Fist, but the time was tight and he could not completely expel the fist strength from his body, and the special true qi cultivated by Yang Siqiao made Li Rong's soft water true qi unable to achieve full success.

When they returned to the camp and saw that the camp was empty, Li Rong and the others felt a little strange.

At this time, Li Huai, who was in the army, ran over and told everyone that it was Li Duozuo, the general of Yulin Wei, who was ordered to lead a thousand knights to hunt down the fleeing snake spirit rebels, and ordered Li Rong and others to change horses together to join Li Duozuo after they returned.

"Yuan Ming, you have an injury, stay in the camp to heal, and Wei Chi and I can just take someone there." Yang Zhiyi said.

Li Rong couldn't object, the strength of the Seven Injuries Fist was indeed difficult, it was not clean, and his internal organs were still aching, so it was really not suitable to do anything with others.

"Taichu, Yu Chi, be careful, there are many masters in the snake spirit, don't be reluctant." Li Rong said.

Just kidding, there are as many as four or five grandmaster-level masters who have appeared in the snake spirit, and these people alone can slaughter an entire army of thousand knights, plus Yang Zhiyi, and Wei Chi Xiu is not enough to kill a five-grade master.

Wu Zetian naturally knew that the snake spirit was not easy to catch, but he always had to send someone to chase him and show a gesture, and as for whether he could catch someone, it was up to fate.

"Don't worry, we'll take care of it." Yang Zhiyi said.

In this way, the soldiers who had just returned to the camp after a hundred miles of rapid travel changed into war horses, galloped out of the West Garden, and headed east.

Li Rong returned to the tent alone, sitting quietly on the couch, and his luck was adjusted.

Speaking of which, Li Zhaokun's "Seven Wounds Fist" and Li Rong's "Seven Emotions and Imperial Qi" secret method are very similar, both of which are extremely rare and special exercises that put aside the dantian qi sea and exert force with the five internal organs. The difference is that the "Seven Injuries Fist" focuses on hurting people's five internal organs, while the "Seven Emotions and Imperial Qi" focuses more on stimulating one's own strength, enhancing the amount of true qi, and speeding up the flow of qi and blood to obtain stronger strength.

"The Seven Wounds Fist is really extraordinary," Li Rong said in his heart, but a smile appeared on his face.

The secret technique of "Seven Emotions and Qi Control" he practiced is derived from the "Xuanyin Wonderful Sword", which can use the subtle changes in breathing during seven different extreme emotions such as joy, anger, worry, sorrow, panic and panic, stimulate the five internal organs, regulate the flow of qi and blood in the five internal organs, and destroy stronger power.

After Li Rong learned the "Seven Emotions and Imperial Qi", he ingeniously used the "Seven Emotions Imperial Qi" and Tianzhu Yoga, Shaolin Temple's "Yijin Sutra", and referred to the spiral force of Baguazhang to perform the secret technique of "Seven Emotions and Eight Pulses Vibration Strings", as a stunt for himself to press the bottom of the box. In fact, the power of "Seven Emotions and Imperial Qi, Eight Veins Vibration Strings" did not disappoint Li Rong, once he met the woman in white in Mingtang, the only nine-rank grandmaster in the world, and used this secret technique to let Li Rong get rid of the shackles of the woman in white, and just broke through to the six-grade realm, and today he used it to repel the seven-grade grandmaster Li Zhaokun.

Of course, this is not without a price, and the body has suffered a lot of injuries, and it must be healed by meditation.

Li Rong looked inward, concentrated his spiritual power on the operation of blood qi in his body, and felt the flow of blood. Although I can't really see my heart, liver, lungs, spleen, kidneys and other organs, I can still clearly feel that there is a strange air flow entanglement on each organ of the five internal organs, eroding and destroying the small blood vessels on the organs.

"This is the mystery of the Seven Injuries Fist, ignoring the true qi, the defense of the muscles and bones, and really destroying the opponent's internal organs?" Li Rong secretly said in his heart, "It's a pity that I met my Seven Emotions Imperial Qi." ”

The "Seven Emotions and Imperial Qi" and the "Seven Injuries Fist" are essentially the same and different, both use the power of the five internal organs, and Li Rong can easily resolve the strength of the fist and accept it for his own use.

Li Rong's breathing changed suddenly, his heart beat faster, and the liver, kidney, lungs, spleen, stomach and intestines in his body also couldn't stop squirming with a strange rhythm, and the flow of qi and blood instantly accelerated, prompting the dantian qi sea to flow in the body in a steady stream of true qi. The wisps of foreign qi wrapped around the five internal organs were refined one by one and flowed to the dantian.

For a while, the true qi in Li Rong's body was full, the source of life hidden everywhere that had not been refined, and the residual medicinal power of Pei Yuan Dan and other drugs was also induced, circulating along the four meridians such as the Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian and the Hand Yang Ming Large Intestine Meridian for a week, and then rushed to the Hand Yin Pericardial Meridian, Hand Shaoyang Sanjiao Meridian, Zu Shaoyang Gall Meridian and Foot Convulsion Yin Liver Meridian, pulsing these four meridians open, and finally flowing into the Dantian Qi Sea.

"The Second Realm of Six-Rank Qi Refining," Li Rong opened his eyes and whispered happily.

He stood up, lifted the curtains, and walked out of the tent. At this time, the sky was full of stars, the moon was in the middle of the sky, the camp was empty, everything was silent, and silver light sprinkled all over the earth.

"Life is a life, grass and trees are autumn, since both worlds have chosen the road of martial arts, you must always go to a high place and see the mountains at a glance, so as to live up to your wishes in this life." Li Rong muttered.

"I wonder what's going on at the altar?" Wu Sansi said, watching the raft carrying the snake spirit and the others away.

"I see that Yuan Xingchong is fully prepared, the news reaches the Queen Mother, she will make a decision, she will not let the snake spirit succeed, I have returned to the mountain, don't come to bother me if you have nothing to do." Wu Youxu said, his figure turned into a cloud of light smoke, and disappeared in front of everyone.

Wu Youxu knows Wu Zetian very well, and believes that with Wu Zetian's ability, he will definitely be able to deal with Li Ruoxue and others.

The first battalion of soldiers led by Wu Chonggui is still only a dozen or so people, and the rest of the hundreds have been swept away by the flood, and the miserable scene is unbearable to look at. These soldiers stood numbly in front of Wu Chonggui and Wu Sansi, waiting for orders.

"I also want to find a place to study the scriptures in the second volume of the "Heaven-Chasing Ghost and God Record", determine Li Rong's whereabouts, and inform me according to the old method." You Shan transmitted a voice to Wu Sansidao, and the figure appeared outside the zhang in an instant, and disappeared in a few jumps.

"Let's go back," Wu Sansi couldn't be the shopkeeper, so he took Wu Chonggui and the rest of the soldiers and rushed back to Luoyang.

Wu Sansi's speed was extremely fast, and on the way, he even left Wu Chonggui and others to return to the camp on his own, and quickly ran towards Luoyang with all his skills. By the time he reached the altar, the battle was already over. After all, Wu Sansi had a big battle with the pit viper, and his physical strength and true qi were consumed a lot, and his speed was not as good as usual.

After returning to Luoyang, Wu Sansi immediately found Wu Chengsi to ask for details, and learned that the imperial court did not suffer much, so he put his mind at ease and discussed countermeasures with Wu Chengsi.

Sacrificing Luoshui is an important move in the samurai's plan to represent the Tang Dynasty, although it has not suffered much loss now, but the sacrificial ceremony has been interrupted, and the impact is really not small, and we have to find a way to make up for it.

"The serpent spirit's plan did not succeed, but the strength shown should not be underestimated. This is not counting those Li Tang clans, it is really difficult to deal with them if they really want to collude together. Wu Chengsi said worriedly.

"It's not just the snake spirit, this time even the hidden dragon is also colluding with the snake spirit, but also the Tibetans and Turks." Wu Sansi said.

Although Wu Sansi did not meet the Shifting Greedy Khan, after returning to the city, he heard that Qiu Shenji had repelled the Turks, and knew that the Turks were also involved in the conspiracy of the snake spirit.

"Tibetans and Turks?" Wu Chengsi frowned.

"Hidden Dragon" and "Snake Spirit" are just rivers and lakes organizations, when the chaos can gather the common people to rebel into chaos, when Chengping can only be regarded as scabies, but the Tubo and Turkic people are different, they are the fierce enemies of the imperial court, that is, Emperor Taizong and Emperor Gaozong have not been able to get the two clans, and they have been fighting with the court for decades, and they still have the upper hand. If they collude with the "Hidden Dragon", "Snake Spirit" and the Li Tang clan, they may overthrow the rule of the imperial court if they come together with internal and external troubles.

Wu Sansi nodded, in the face of the current situation, he didn't have any good plans. Whether it is strategy or strategy, it is all based on strength, and the so-called wisdom does not play any role at all in the face of absolute strength.

Wu Chengsi stood up with some anxiety and walked back and forth in the hall.

"Fengxian, you don't have to worry about this, it is estimated that Her Majesty the Holy Mother God Emperor has already taken measures, and her thoughts are not something we can speculate." Wu San thought about it and said.

Wu Chenghe's word Fengxian is called Wu Sansi like this.

Wu Zetian's power not only comes from the identity of Empress Gaozong, but also because of his excellent governance, and his clever power skills have been recognized by hundreds of civil and military officials, so that he can listen to the government and hold the power of the court for decades. Since the time of Emperor Gaozong, the Tibetans and Turks have been constantly attacking the border, but the imperial court has also sent elite soldiers to counterattack, and the war has been won and lost, and the wind is not lost. It was only after the death of Gaozong that the internal struggle within the imperial court was fierce, which gradually made it disadvantaged.

"This sacrificial ceremony is a mess, I don't know what Her Majesty the Holy Mother God Emperor will think," Wu Chengsi said.

Wu Sansi always looked down on Wu Chengsi in his heart, and felt that Wu Chengsi was only because Zhida was able to control well, so he was favored by Wu Zetian as the agent of the Wu family in the court.

"This time the snake spirit's plan is indeed unexpected, and the Holy Mother Divine Emperor will not blame you and me." Wu Sansi said.

"Think twice, there's one more thing you need to do," Wu Chengsi said abruptly.

"What's the matter?" Wu Sansi asked.

"Nayan Wei Xuantong is looking at the courtiers with prestige, and he has the Tang family in his heart, it will become an obstacle for my Wu clan to represent the Tang Dynasty, and it is best to inform Lai Junchen, Zhou Xing and others to take Wei Xuantong down, lest he collude with the Li Tang clan." Wu Chengsi said.

At the critical moment in the face of the attack and killing of the snake spirit, the civil and military officials looked down on Wu Chengsi at all, but listened to the orders of Wei Xuantong, which made Wu Chengsi, the second-in-command of the prime minister, have no temper at all, which is really boring.
