Chapter 417: The Wind Rises
In King Peng's palace, Peng Shan sat on a high bamboo chair and asked a guard beside him, "Has the news been transmitted back to Xizhou?" β
The guard immediately replied: "According to the speed of the carrier pigeons, it should have arrived in Xizhou." β
"What's the news on King Miao's side?" Peng Shan continued to ask.
"King Miao sent someone to ask you to go to his line to assist in the investigation, but our people blocked him out. We responded to the other party according to your instructions, saying that you have left Phoenix Mountain and returned to Xizhou. The guard said.
"We've clearly been calculated this time. Tiger poison does not eat children, so the second son of Kang should not have been killed by Kang Qin. The biggest possibility is that the Wushen Temple and King Miao are on the side, and the person surnamed Kang ordered King Miao to arrest me, which is to force King Miao and our Peng family to kill each other. Hmph, their calculations are too shrewd. Peng Shan said.
"Little Lord, according to the opinion of our subordinates, we should leave this place immediately, if they forcibly break in, we don't have enough manpower and can't hold it at all." The guards built yì to.
"You're wrong. Not only can we not leave Phoenix Mountain, but we also have to make a big article on this Phoenix Mountain. Now that King Miao or the Witch God Temple have pointed the finger at us, don't wait any longer. You immediately contact the people of the Wei family and the Wu family, they took so much money from us, and it is time to contribute, just say that there is an eyeless silkworm in Phoenix Mountain, which is on the main peak where the Witch God Temple is located, and King Miao and Kang Qincha want to swallow the eyeless silkworm alone, so they plan to block Phoenix Mountain. Peng Shan said.
"Will they believe it?" The guard asked.
"They can't believe it, they will never miss any opportunity, they must rather believe it." Peng Shan said firmly.
The guards turned around and left as Peng Shan had ordered, while Peng Shan walked into a small building behind the main hall, where a Taoist priest was resting and meditating. If you look closely, it's that cold light.
When Han Ming saw Peng Shan, he immediately got up to greet him, "The little prince has arrived, but what happened?" β
"Dao Chief, you must know what happened to me." Peng Shan sat opposite Han Ming and said bluntly.
"Could it be that the little prince is trying to figure out GuΓ² and our Wuliu faction to explain to Lord Kang?" Han Ming asked after nodding.
"The explanation has long been useless, even if Lord Kang believes in his heart that I didn't kill people, he will still do it." Peng Shan smiled bitterly.
"What does the little prince need to do?" Han Ming asked.
"I'm here to tell the Taoist chief a message, in exchange for the Taoist chief who can help me when I'm in danger." Peng Shan said slowly.
"Please also ask the little prince to make it clear, even if there is no news, the little prince will be very helpful to our Wuliu faction, and I Hanming will definitely help." Han Ming said.
"Then thank you Dao Chief, but this news is very important and cannot be delayed, otherwise it will lose its meaning. Listen up, Chief. He immediately leaned over and leaned next to Han Ming's ear and said softly: "Someone has found traces of eyeless silkworms on the main peak of Phoenix Mountain. β
Well?! Hearing this, he felt that Han Ming's body was shocked, and he asked anxiously: "What are the specific details, and where did the little prince get the news?" β
"This little king is inconvenient to explain, so he can only tell sΓΉ that you got the news from the Witch God Temple. King Miao's side should have also gotten the news. As for whether Kang Qincha knew it or not, Xiao Wang didn't know. I got the news from the Witch God Temple, and the nine witch gods of the Witch God Temple should have already known about this matter, as for the specific information, Xiao Wang is not clear, so it is better for the Dao Chief to make arrangements as soon as possible. Peng Shan replied.
Later, Peng Shan said goodbye to Han Ming and returned to his study, where two black-clothed guards were already waiting.
"Are you ready?" Peng Shan asked.
"According to the arrangement of the little prince, everything is ready." A black-clad guard replied.
"Is there any movement in the Witch Temple?" Peng Shan asked.
"It seems that something has happened to the Witch Temple, now it is forbidden for people to enter and leave the underground palace freely, and it is also forbidden for people from the Witch Temple to go down the mountain." The black-clad guard returned.
"It couldn't be better. You immediately arrange for people to spread rumors in every major village around them, saying that King Miao has agreed to Kang Qin's plan to change the land and return to the river, but the Wushen Temple has expressed strong opposition. Therefore, King Miao decided to abolish the Witch Temple, and also lured all the surrounding Tusi to Phoenix Mountain to participate in the postponed sacrificial ceremony, and the Tusi who opposed the change of land and return to the stream at the ceremony would be placed under house arrest by King Miao. Peng Shan commanded one by one.
"My subordinates will do it immediately." The black-clothed guard immediately turned around and left the study.
Later, Peng Shan looked at another black-clothed guard: "You go to a farther village to spread rumors, and the Witch God Temple invites the major Tusi to enter the Phoenix Mountain, defend the Witch Temple, and kill the Miao King who has betrayed Miao Jiang and the Han Qin Cha who oppressed the people of Miao Jiang." β
The black-clad guard was ordered to leave again.
Peng Shan was the only one left in the study, looking at the map of Miao Jiang hanging on the wall, and muttered to himself: "It seems that the general trend of the world has really changed, but I don't know if what you said is right or not." β
In the Witch God Temple, Yi Feng stood beside Mu Huan and asked, "Ninth Uncle, how sure is the master of entering the Transformation Realm this time?" β
"Stepping into the realm of transformation depends on one's own creation, and how can outsiders guess thoroughly. Now that there is chaos outside, King Miao actually wants to arrest Peng Shan, and that Kang Qincha is also clamoring to change the land and return to the stream. Now Phoenix Mountain is no longer peaceful, and at this time, our Witch God Temple needs to reappear a great witch god in order to survive this storm smoothly. β
"But what if the people of the Zhong family come to make trouble before the master enters the transformation realm? Someone spread the news before, saying that the eyeless silkworm appeared in our Phoenix Mountain. Yi Feng asked with some concern.
"Our Witch God Temple has been inherited for thousands of years, from ancient times to the present, and now it is almost the weakest time for our Witch God Temple, the ambitions of the four major toasts are inflated, the Poison Dragon Sect Wuyi Sect Chenzhou Dao Ring is outside, and there are also Wuliu Sect and Zhong Family, these external troubles have entered Miao Jiang, at this time we can only act carefully and wait patiently. Otherwise, they will be crushed by these forces. Mu Huan looked at the mountains outside the hall and let out a long breath.
"Master, aren't the second uncle and the third uncle all half-step transformation realms, can't our Witch God Temple be able to defeat these forces?" Yi Feng was puzzled.
"Your master has closed the life and death barrier, and now you must not disturb him, your third uncle is cultivating in the Wuzu Fantasy Realm, and you can't disturb him, and your second uncle is responsible for guarding the jade stone tablet, sorting out the witch book and witchcraft, and now he can't get out. Now it's just us on the periphery, so we must stabilize the Witch Temple, as long as we stabilize our position, this turmoil will have a much smaller impact on us. Mu Huan said solemnly.
"Then do I still want to visit Xiao Gongzi?" Yi Feng asked.
"Of course you're going, and you're going to do it every two days, and bring them some more groceries along the way. But don't bring anyone else with you, lest you leak the news. At the same time, he also instructed them not to leave there for the time being, so as not to be discovered by King Miao's people. Mu Huan instructed.
Xiao Yao didn't know what was happening outside at this time, at this moment, Xiao Yao was practicing the Taoist mind method on the one hand, and the sword qi of the Twelve Floors on the other.
Since the rudimentary form of the Yuan Shen disappeared, the perception of the sword qi has deteriorated a lot, and without the guidance of the Yuan Shen, the speed of the sword qi in the body has been significantly slower.
Xiao Yao had to practice over and over again, hoping to make up for the current shortcomings, entering the half-step transformation realm is not something that can be completed in a short period of time, and now he can only hope that he will be more proficient in using his sword qi.
This time, he died nine times in his life, but he eliminated the time bomb around him, and broke through the bottleneck that prevented him from stepping into the transformation realm before, and now the cultivation speed of true qi is obviously much faster than before.
In addition, according to the method of the miracle doctor, the eldest lady's condition has really improved greatly, and her mental state is obviously much better than before. It was also in vain that this trip to the southwest to seek medical treatment was much more relieved.
It's just that Hu Yiyi is a little anxious, and she can't go down the mountain rashly at this time, so as not to expose her current position, so that the situation of Xiao Yao and the eldest lady will be even more dangerous.
Yi Feng came to visit Xiao Yao and the others every two days, and each time he would bring a large burden of daily necessities, and inform everyone of the situation outside in recent days, and told Xiao Yao and the others not to go out in the near future.
Xiao Yao's true qi rose steadily, and during this period, Xiao Yao continued to ask Ghost Face and Hu Yiyi about all kinds of Gu magic questions, and the two of them knew everything and said everything.
Xiao Yao wanted to know what those three insect cocoons were most at the moment, but he couldn't tell them to the two of them, and he still couldn't get the answer he wanted after asking many times.
Xiao Yao had tried all kinds of things, but the insect cocoons inside still didn't have any reaction.
Hey, it is estimated that only the proud disciple of the first hall witch god may know the details of this thing. In the end, he could only pin his hopes on Yi Feng.
And Xiao Yao seemed to have really found the right person, Yi Feng really knew a lot of examples like this, one of which was the old Gu worm that had been sealed, such as the sleeping Ancient Spirit Gu, or it might be a high-level Gu worm that had entered dormancy. But if you want to determine which one it is, you can only wait for the Gu worm to crawl out of the cocoon, or now you have the ability to directly peel off the cocoon to see what is inside.
Yi Feng's two suggestions made Xiao Yao a little speechless, and for Xiao Yao's situation, it was not constructive in any way, and was immediately vetoed by Xiao Yao.
However, Yi Feng brought another piece of news that interested Xiao Yao.
Peng Shan killed Kang's second son? Still wanted by King Miao and Kang Qincha?
And when Xiao Yao heard that the surname Kang was not dead, and at this moment, he had woken up to the news, and he was even more shocked in his heart, this pure and empty old way could actually break his "life and death talisman"? This person is the master of the three of Han Ming, could it be that this person is the legendary master of the transformation realm?
Listening to the news revealed by Yi Feng, all kinds of speculations in Xiao Yao's heart followed
Xiao Yao and the others were not quiet in this hidden place for too long, they thought that they could wait until the eldest lady recovered from her strange illness, but only seven days later, they heard a news that made Xiao Yao even more surprised.
