Chapter 393: Nine Hall Witch God
After thinking about it before and after, he put his mind back on the jade slip and began to memorize this moral scripture and the twelve-story building swordsmanship. Now that you have grabbed these, you must make the most of them, otherwise it will be a tyrannical thing.
An hour later, Xiao Yao put away the jade slip and memorized all the contents in it. According to the rules of the true qi operation of the Tao Te Ching, it was found that this true scripture can not only cultivate the true qi, but also absorb the spiritual qi.
At the same time, I thought about it, why aren't my true qi and spiritual qi one and the same? Rather, it is divided into two systems within itself.
After running the Tao Te Ching for a week, Xiao Yao began to try the sword qi of the Eight Directions, Six Veins and Twelve-Folded Buildings. As Xiao Yao expected, the combination of yin and yang of the twelve serious ones could increase the power of sword qi by four times.
As for the combination of the six veins, each additional meridian will be twice as powerful, and the power of the complete combination of the six veins is six times the power of the sword qi alone. However, after the combination of the six veins, it will induce the resonance of the twelve meridians of the whole body, so it is even more powerful.
And for the addition of the eight veins of the Qi Sutra, it must be based on the combination of the six veins. Each time you add a Sutra, the power will increase by one layer, and when you add all eight Sutras, the power will be doubled again.
But all the laws of true qi operation are based on the fact that their own meridians can withstand such strong true qi vibrations. And you have to have so much true qi in your body to do it.
Xiao Yao knew his current level and true qi, and he could barely achieve the combination of six pulses. But after a blow, the whole body will lose strength, and the state is not as good as ordinary people. Therefore, let alone adding anything to the Eight Veins of the Wonder Sutra.
Unconsciously, another two hours passed, and Xiao Yao regained his true qi. Put on the human skin mask again, go out of the mountains and forests, and quietly blend into a group of merchants who happened to come down from the snowy mountains, and return to the snowy mountain city.
Along the way, I didn't see anyone from the Wuliu Sect and the Wuyi Sect, and it is estimated that these people have already left this place with the corpse of the ghost servant.
When I entered the snowy mountain city, I found that there were many fewer soldiers patrolling the city. On the contrary, the security around the City Lord's Mansion was much stricter than usual.
It's okay that he doesn't want to kill these ordinary soldiers. But the leaders of the Witch Clothes Sect and the Five Willow Sect were not among them.
Xiao Yao walked in the city, observing the pedestrians passing around him, there seemed to be nothing abnormal, it was still crowded with people, and the traffic was busy. From time to time, there are still horse gangs that enter the city to replenish supplies and rest.
At this time, the square in the center of the city was already filled with tents of all kinds, and only a few guards were maintaining order around it. Xiao Yao quietly returned to the inn where he stayed before, ordered some food, and ate slowly in the lobby.
The City Lord's Mansion suddenly strengthened its vigilance, which meant that they already knew about the death of the ghost servant. Now that people at the level of ghost servants are no longer their opponents, others don't need to worry.
After all, it is rare to see a master like Dong Huayi who is at a higher level than a ghost servant, let alone in this remote town.
Now the question in my heart is how Wei Decai concluded that the Eyeless Silkworm is here, and he also convinced the people of the Wuliu Sect.
Now that the people of the Wuliu faction have been repulsed, they must rush back to Phoenix Mountain as much as possible, just to cure the strange illness of the eldest lady as soon as possible, and then solve the hidden dangers that may cause harm to themselves, and then leave Miao Jiang quickly, and never want to get involved in these rights and wrongs again.
In the evening, Xiao Yao bought a first-class horse in the city and left the snowy mountain city by night.
The mountain road at night is exceptionally quiet, and there are few people like Xiao Yao who travel alone at night. Even a caravan would not choose to drive the mountain at night.
Riding along the road, he had just walked twenty miles, but he heard a noisy sound of horses' hooves from behind, Xiao Yao grabbed the reins and stopped on the side of the road, wanting to find out.
After a while, I saw a team of Snow Mountain City guards riding war horses from far and near, but they galloped directly in front of them and disappeared on the mountain road. I didn't even look at myself.
Looking at the team speeding by, I didn't think much about it. Since it has nothing to do with me, I don't have the leisure to know what happened.
But not long after, he saw another group of guards galloping from the rear on war horses, bypassing him, and running forward. The two teams of people in the front and back were fifteen or sixteen people each time.
After climbing over a mountain, I saw a simple fence set up in the middle of the mountain road, and the two teams of guards who had surpassed Xiao Yao before were behind the fence, setting up tents and erecting torches, completely blocking the official road in front.
Xiao Yao soon came to the fence, where two horse gangs had gathered, on both sides of the fence. When the guards saw Xiao Yao coming, they immediately stepped forward to stop Xiao Yao.
"Dismount immediately, by the order of the city lord, the official road is blocked tonight, no one is allowed to pass through guò, and it can be re-released tomorrow morning." A guard shouted at Xiao Yao.
Hearing this, Xiao Yao did not forcibly break through, but got off the horse safely. Immediately, a guard asked Xiao Yao to lead the horse to the side of the road.
Other guards continued to stand guard along the route.
After another incense stick, two more teams of cavalry came to reinforce them, this was obviously not to intercept anyone, and Xiao Yao felt that there might be some important people passing by here tonight, and these people were implementing traffic control.
The night was deep, and I saw a group of men and horses walking towards this place in the distance.
Everyone wore red cloaks and couldn't see their faces clearly.
It turned out to be a member of the Nishikawa Zhong family. Xiao Yao recognized these people at a glance. This outfit is too obvious.
It's just why are they here? And there are also soldiers from the City Lord's Mansion to keep guard.
These red-robed Zhong family members walked outside, guarding the two central carriages, each with curtains hanging on them, so that they couldn't see who was sitting inside.
This team of people did not go fast, and the Zhong family was divided into two groups of people, the front and back, keeping a distance of about 20 zhang, and guarding them separately. Even on both sides of the road, there were Zhong family members who carefully inspected the grass they were passing through.
Wherever this group of people passed, the cavalry of the City Lord's Mansion stood in front and behind along the road, separating Xiao Yao and the two horse gangs outside.
The Zhong family also came here after the Wuliu faction, what was it for?
Just when Xiao Yao was still thinking about the purpose of the Zhong family's visit, four black-clothed people suddenly rushed out of the grass on the side of the official road, all dressed in night clothes, and they were all holding Miao Jiang's universal scimitar in their hands.
The first of the four jumped onto the center of the official road, stopped the horse team, and shouted, "The Nine Witch Gods of the Witch God Temple, on the orders of the Witch God of the First Temple, have been waiting for you here for a long time. Surrender our men obediently, or you will be stained with blood on the spot today. All the children of Miao Jiang killed these spies of the Xichuan Zhong family together, and if anyone did not respect the orders of the witch god, they would be cursed by the great god Chiyou. ”
The black-clothed ** shouted, which immediately made the surrounding guards of the Yao District City Lord's Mansion start to talk about it, and they don't know if these words are true or false.
After a while, a human voice came from the two carriages in the center that were protected by the Zhong family, "The Yao clan's Pan clan Tusi Jun Ling, all my children in the Yao District will respect my Jun Ling." Immediately kill these rebels who pretend to be witch gods, and behead those who violate the order. ”
This person's voice is not loud, but in the middle of the night, everyone around him can hear it clearly.
Could it be that the Witch Temple and Pan's Toast are fighting? So what are these Zhong family people doing here?
Before Xiao Yao could think about it, he saw the person who claimed to be the Witch God of the Nine Palaces and said, "Do you Yao District Pan Clan want to violate the ancient covenant and betray the Great God of Chiyou?" This person's voice was very firm, and it was all questioning, and he didn't seem to care at all about the Yao soldiers and the red-robed people of the Zhong family around him.
"Who betrayed the great god of Chiyou, it's not up to you to say it with one mouth. Our General Panli was innocently killed in Phoenix Mountain, and if you don't give us a satisfactory answer, you won't want to take away the people you want. ”
The man's voice was heard again in the carriage.
"Then don't blame us for being rude!" As soon as the leader of the black-clothed man waved his hand, the three black-clothed men behind him immediately stood still, and immediately blew a strange whistle towards the surroundings.
As the whistle sounded all over the mountains and forests, after a while, Xiao Yao felt that the ground under his feet was trembling.
The war horses under the crotches of those soldiers began to be a little uncontrollable, and even the horses beside Xiao Yao actually broke free from the reins in Xiao Yao's hands at once and ran into the distance.
"I can't imagine that you actually took the divine beast down the mountain?! Everyone immediately dismounted, and the archers prepared. The man in the carriage still did not show up, and ordered urgently.
I saw that the surrounding soldiers and the Zhong family tied their horses to the fence one after another, and the soldiers stretched out their bows and arrows one after another, facing the four black-clothed men, ready to obey the order at any time.
Xiao Yao didn't expect such a thing to happen, and soon Xiao Yao saw the giant beast running in the distance. It was a giant lizard, but it was not the one it healed itself, but a lizard that was slightly smaller than the one.
The lizard, covered in black scale armor, quickly ran behind the four men in black. More than five feet long, from time to time he opened his bloody mouth, highlighting the long letters, and a pair of bronze bell-sized eyes locked on the two carriages opposite.
Immediately, two people walked down from the carriage that had just been rumored, one was dressed in a red robe, it was the middle-aged man of the Zhong family that Xiao Yao had seen before, and the other was dressed in Yao costumes, a military general who seemed to be the Pan clan of the Yao clan.
"Don't use the name of the Witch God Temple to bully our Yao Tusi Mansion, although you have the help of divine beasts, but today you don't want to take away this person my Tusi wants to see." The general opened his mouth and drank.
Xiao Yao hid to the side, looking at the two teams of people who were tense and tense, it seemed that Miao Jiang's affairs were much more complicated than he had imagined before.
Hearing this, the man in black did not immediately order the monitor lizard beside him, but said to the general, "Pan Ming, I don't care what Snow Mountain City Lord you are, and even if you are ordered by King Yao, we must bring that person back to Phoenix Mountain today, your Pan clan colluded with the Zhong family, attacked the envoy of the Witch God in the first hall, and detained the disciple of the Witch God, the crime cannot be punished!" ”
As soon as the man in black spoke, he saw that the person known as Pan Ming raised his right hand and waved it forward. The soldiers behind him immediately shot out nearly a hundred bows and arrows, shooting directly at the four men in black.
