The room was filled with a strong smell of decay, and the decoration of the room was shattered at the touch of a button, as if it had gone through a long time, but the corpse lying on the ground was "fresh" and out of place with everything in the room. Using spells to detect the time of death can be obtained, although it is not accurate to the number of breaths, it is also known that he has been dead for less than three hours.

Under the instructions of the adults, the official turned the corpse over, and the corpse did not have any external scars, and skillfully opened the chest on the spot, and stabbed it down, and a stream of rotten water gushed out from the crack of the knife. He just frowned and continued to open his chest, but the catcher from Yingdu's "Xiayuan County" was retching, and finally ran out of the room one after another, and soon there was a sound of vomiting.

He glanced at the only adult who stayed with some surprise, this adult looked very ordinary, but the clothes on his body were extraordinary. The red silk tassel embroidered claws represent that the adult is from the Eagle Claw Division, and the three claws represent that the adult is the "chief lieutenant".

Hu Shandiao naturally wouldn't reveal his intentions to these people, he listened carefully to the autopsy report he made, and then ordered the arresters of "Xiayuan County" to burn the corpse and the house quickly. Hu Shandiao took out three talismans and threw them into the ruins that were still emitting black smoke, and left Xiayuan County after reciting a seal mantra in his heart.

Forty-seven days have passed since the "June 19 Chu Death" incident, and the forces represented by Liao Longji have won a great victory, and most of the power of Chu is now controlled by him. Because the king of Chu Jiang did not know life and death, and the two daughters of the king of Chu Jiang were also purged subsequently, the magnates of the Chu state promoted Liao Longji as the regent of the Chu state.

The State of Chu is the base of the Saints of the Human Realm in Kyushu, but as long as the State of Chu does not change the national sect, the Saints of the Human Realm will not interfere in the political situation of the State of Chu. Liao Longji and other Yu people are very determined to implement the "Yu Chu" plan, the core of the plan is to cultivate Yu Chu, who is still in his infancy, that is, the original King of Chujiang, which will take about ten to fifteen years.

During this time, the forces represented by Liao Longji had to lay the foundation for the emergence of Yu Chu while governing the Chu State.

Although Liao Longji became the regent of the Chu State, he did not cover the sky with one hand, the Xiong royal family and the Chu Shisi colluded to disobey Liao Longji, the old nobles wavered, and the Chu State's Five Pillar Stone Army remained neutral, etc., all of which made Liao Longji feel physically and mentally exhausted.

A few days ago, Hu Shandiao, who had completed the ladder, returned to Yingdu and found the "Liao Longji" of the current regent of Chu State, Hu Shandiao's explanation was that he could not go over after arriving at Jiamao Lake, so he wanted to take a detour, and the detour would take Bigong Peak, and the danger of Bigong Peak was well known.

Hu Shandiao said that he fled in a hurry after losing an ear in Bigong Peak, and returned to Yingdu after several difficulties, Liao Longji and Zhang Fen didn't know whether it was true or false, or they didn't care at all, in short, they accepted Hu Shandiao's statement, and then immediately inspected Hu Shandiao's ladder.

Hu Shandiao used the "Dao Body" Xuantong to make himself a nine-ladder Xuanxiu, but Liao and Zhang were very surprised, but then they were very happy, saying that they didn't expect that Dadiao would climb the nine ladders after you walked to Bigong Peak. Then, he explained the current situation of Chu for Hu Shandiao, and gave Hu Shandiao some resources and items for cultivation, and asked Hu Shandiao to go to "Xiayuan County".

Liao Longji believes that the current big enemy affecting the "Yu Chu" plan is the "Chu Shisi", but he also knows that his side does not have the strength to overthrow the Chu Shisi, so the best way is to follow the "procedure", that is, to act according to the "official face".

When the official comes to do it, he must find evidence that Chu Shisi violated Chu Law, these evidence cannot be forged, Chu Shisi has the means to distinguish the authenticity, so the evidence must be genuine.

The functions of the Chu Shi Division are relatively vague, arresting Xuan Xiu who violates discipline and law, arresting Ye Xuan Xiu who is unwilling to be registered, protecting Chu officials from persecution by magic, etc., these are the functions of Chu Shi Division. There are not a few officials in the Chu State who die in the persecution of magic every year, but if you want to judge the crime in this way, you can only dispose of a few temporary workers at most, and the right to dispose of it is still in the Chu Shisi.

Liao Longji naturally has a lot of Xuan Xiu around him, but these Xuan Xiu are all from Chu Shisi, and Zhang Fen is also a six-ladder Xuan Xiu, but he is very busy, and Liao Longji is already looking for a suitable Xuan Xiu in Yu before Hu Shandiao returns. Hu Shandiao came back just to fill the vacancy in the hands of the people, so Hu Shandiao's butt was sent out to perform the task before it was hot.

Hu Shandiao was willing to run errands because Liao Longji promised to get "Yuanlu" for him, but Hu Shandiao showed the strength of the Nine Ladders, and Liao Longji would not be able to repair it even if he really got Yuanluo. Hu Shandiao mainly wanted to know the channel through which Liao Longji obtained Yuanluo, and the news of this channel could only be inquired about after Liao Longji got Yuanluo.

Xiayuan City, a person who is fresh on the outside and rotten on the inside, is a shadow of the Eagle Claw Division, and it is also a bait, and the fishing is Chu Shisi, although the fish is hooked, but because it is dragging the hook to the bottom, Hu Shandiao needs to hold the fishing rod to lift the fish up. But not too long, and the fish will be dragged into the water with the rod and lurk.

The three runes thrown into the ruins were transformed into invisible arrows, guiding Hu Shandiao to leave Xiayuan County and go to the nearby "Yuantou Peak". Using the "fog mirror", Hu Shandiao can take a look at the Yuantou Peak without going up the mountain, but unfortunately the "ear of the family name" is damaged, otherwise, the ear of the family name is the best combination of the fog realm.

The fog mirror can only present images and cannot hear sounds, and before approaching the position pointed by the arrow, Hu Shandiao already knows what the environment is in that location. The use of magic weapons consumes a lot of Yuan Li, and Hu Shandiao's use of fog mirrors can only last two incense sticks, in contrast, although the ears of the clan surname are also consumed, they can last for a quarter of an hour, and the consumption is much lower than that of magic weapons.

Xuantong's "Dao Body and Return" are not combat, but the "Little Leiyin Temple" can be used for battle, and the combat skill "Mang Shield" can still be integrated into the four seals of "Lin, Soldier, Fight, and Person". The magic seal is composed of seals, runes, and formations, that is, the coordination and cooperation of "sound and movement", which takes a long time to cast and is widely used.

Therefore, the time to activate the magic weapon is also relatively long.

Retracting his thoughts from Fa Yin's message, Hu Shandiao's gaze fell back on the northwest position of Yuantou Peak, where there was a cave where the person who attacked the eagle claw shadow in Xiayuan City was hiding. Since the fog mirror can't see through, it's not clear how many people are hidden inside, what the strength is, and so on.

In the cave, four people wearing cyan robes are forming a circle, and a palm-sized altar is placed in the circle, which is exactly the same as the Yinggou Guan altar of Hu Shandiao, but the sacrifice statue is the head of a beast and a human body. The four blue-robed cultivators posed in different postures, their lips moved slightly and chanted the mantra, and as the movements and voices resonated, the Dharma seal was also formed, and the beast head human sacrifice statue "whew" formed a phantory shadow.

Affected by the height of the cave, the phantom folded and stood, the lower body was straight, and the upper body was flat on the roof of the cave to form a bird's-looking posture. ”

"The son wants to be confused and afraid of what is known, so he deceives what he loves, so that he knows it." The phantom said in seal language, but in the soul thoughts of the four Xuan cultivators, it was conveyed that "someone wants to make trouble and is afraid of being known by the superiors, so they deliberately expel a confidant to inform, and want to know the reaction of the superiors when they know."

"Isn't it inconsistent to be afraid of being known and send a henchman to inform?" Xuan Xiu, who had spoken out before, muttered in his heart, but after thinking about it, he didn't seem to understand it this way, and after thinking about it, this Xuan Xiu understood what the phantom was alluding to.

"Inferior is not loved", Xuan Xiu stammered a little and said in seal language, although every Xuan Xiu knows the seal language, but it is rarely used in daily life, and it is only used when casting spells, and there are so many spell seals that come and go.

"Jie Ji", the phantom let out a strange laugh, he obviously didn't want to embarrass these Xuan Xiu anymore, and said in Xia language, "Even if the city protection array of Yingdu is not opened, its array itself has a strong spirituality, whether Liao Longji usurps power or gains power in a dignified manner, he is the most powerful person in Yingdu after all, and the array of Yingdu City is also concerned about him because of this, and if he wants to kill him, the current price is not enough." ”

On behalf of Xuan Xiu about to speak, the phantom suddenly distorted, and his body shrank to the size of a normal person, and he raised the index finger of his left hand, and Xuan Xiu was banned. The phantom then floated out of the cave, and his facial features also condensed in an instant, unlike the beast-headed human body of the sacrificed statue, the phantom was a human face at this time.

The phantom looked up, and his face immediately appeared in the "fog mirror", and Hu Shandiao, who was holding the fog mirror, met the phantom's gaze. Hu Shandiao can clearly see that the original form of this face is "Yuan Ling", and the Yuan Spirit that can descend on Kyushu is also a Yuan Spirit at worst, but the Yuan Spirit cannot enter and exit freely, and will only appear after being summoned.

Most of the Gen Spirits are messengers, but Gen Spirits also act as assassins, killers, spies, etc., and as long as the price paid is large enough, they can summon Gen Spirits to do things.

Yuan Ling, who was standing at the entrance of the cave, made a "blinding" action towards the sky, and the scene in the fog mirror in Hu Shandiao's hand was like a piece of a puzzle piece being cut off, that is, the scene near the cave disappeared.

"I'll go, such an awesome Yuan Ling doesn't say the price of hiring, it's not easy to summon alone", Hu Shandiao put away the fog mirror and immediately launched a sacrifice to Li Yindan, Li Yindan's response speed was also very fast, and Hu Shandiao's soul "squeezed" a lot of information.

The Ten Directions Yuan Spirit is the existence in the Metaverse second only to the Zhen Yuan Ancestor, the Zhen Yuan Ancestor is a saint, and the Ten Fang Yuan Spirits are equivalent to the first ladder Xuan Xiu, and the Ten Fang Yuan Spirits are all very ancient spiritual objects. The Yuan Spirit is condensed by the Yuan Force, and after stepping into the Xuan Path, it obtains spirituality and enters the Metaverse, and then interacts with the Kyushu Realm to obtain cultivation resources and knowledge, so as to grow slowly.

Li Yintan has dealt with the Metaverse a lot, and this guy who can obscure the fog mirror with his hand blindfolded is the "Ten Directions Demon Ape", one of the five Ten Directions Yuan Spirits in the Metaverse. How long did the Ten Directions Demon Ape live, Li Yintan can only speculate, about 10,000 years.

Hu Shandiao didn't think that a small cave could summon the Ten Directions Demon Ape, that must have been the steps of the summoning ceremony earlier, "That is to say, the summoning sacrifice still exists, and it is precisely because the summoning sacrifice still plays a role that the people of Chu Shisi can contact the Ten Directions Demon Ape at any time, but what does Chu Shisi do when he summons the Ten Directions Demon Ape?" ”

Li Yintan and the Ten Directions Demon Ape are also old acquaintances, not friends, even if there is a contract, Yuan Ling will rarely make friends with outsiders, and it is precisely because Yuan Ling does not like to make friends that the Xuan Shi will guard against Yuan Ling. Yuan Ling is very difficult to kill, after all, they are composed of Yuan Force, and to kill Yuan Ling, you can only erase the spirituality, make it into a pure Yuan Force Body, and then refine it.

Hu Shandiao has never had the idea of killing the Ten Directions Demon Ape, and a six-ladder Xuan Xiu has the idea of killing the Ten Directions Yuan Spirit? It's just as funny as an ant trying to stretch out its legs and trip over an elephant. But Hu Shandiao can still do it if he wants to disgust the Ten Fang Yuan Spirit, and Li Yintan has not done such a thing, after all, the Ten Fang Yuan Spirit has a high asking price and is very arrogant, and there is no Xuan Shi who does not love and hate.

In the southwest of the Chu State is the "Guangrao City", which belongs to two regions, one is Guangdi, the other is Raodi, and Guangrao City is half built in Guang and half is built in Rao. When the Chu State conquered Guang and Rao, it did not take much effort, because the Guang people and Rao people had no combat effectiveness, that is, the local people were good.

Unlike the Yu people, coconut people, etc., who always think about the restoration of the country, now the people of Guangrao and Rao regard themselves as Chu people, and they do not think about recovering the country, so naturally they only only think about life, and the Chu people in Guangrao and Rao are immersed in farming, and in a hundred years, Guangrao and the two have become the well-deserved granary of Chu.

It should be noted that the granary of the Kyushu border does not refer to ordinary rice, but to "vitality grains" that can increase spirits, soul thoughts, and restore energy power.

"Therefore, this has nothing to do with the industriousness of the Chu people in Guangrao and the two places, obviously the soil in these two places is abundant and can be reclaimed as a yuan qi field, so it is no wonder that the people of Guangrao practice martial arts, if they do not practice martial arts, there is no yuan power, and farming is not qualified." Hu Shandiao, who entered Guangrao City, complained.

The history of Guangrao City is about 1,300 years, Li Yintan has a house in this city, the time is so long, and there are wars during the period, Li Yindan's house has naturally changed hands many times, but the things buried in the ground of the house may still be there. It was a huge bone carved with the head of a beast, and the bone originally belonged to a mystic, and this mystic was a unicorn.

Xuanshi refers to the cultivators before Ji Zhou sealed the Xuan, and Xuanxiu refers to the cultivators after him, and the Xuanshi walks the path of heaven and earth, that is, there is no specific career path, and it is completely step by step to improve the strength by comprehending the rules (authority) of heaven and earth. And there is no path of "Qilin" in the current 3,000 Xuan Path.

Li Yintan didn't know how to get a little spirituality of the Ten Directions Demon Ape, and then integrated it into the Qilin Bone and then refined, after the refining was successful, as long as the Ten Directions Demon Ape provoked Li Yindan, Li Yindan would "scratch" this Qilin Bone, even if the Ten Directions Demon Ape was in the Metaverse, it would be uncomfortable.

Thinking about Li Yindan, who had been sanctified before the Xia Dynasty appeared, but he could still only use this method to punish the Ten Directions Demon Ape, he could know how difficult the Ten Directions Demon Ape was to kill. Of course, Li Yindan, the sage master, was also weak at that time, and the rest of the saints might be able to pinch the Ten Directions Demon Ape to death.

The safe way is to buy the courtyard where the unicorn bones are buried, but the three thousand crystal coins paid by Gu Jixiang have been spent during this time, and Hu Shandiao now only has more than three hundred crystal coins. Although the yard only needs a hundred crystal coins to start, but just dig something and leave, a hundred crystal coins are too wasteful, Hu Shandiao decided to start at night.

The popularity of Guangrao City is very high, Hu Shandiao just walked around and didn't look at the sky seriously, and found hundreds of thousands of players, and the real data will obviously be higher, "This is breaking into the player's nest?" Hu Shandiao teased, he also knows that this is inevitable, after all, "Xuanshi" is to get "points" out of thin air for players.

Of course, a meal is also quite expensive, and players can't afford to eat it every day! But can't you steal if you can't afford to eat? This is the reason why a large number of players gather in Guangrao City, and Guangrao City's status in the Chu State is second only to Yingdu and Weicheng, and the Chu State is not only heavily stationed, but also has a large number of personnel in the Chu Shisi.

Players, armies, and Chu Shi made the Guangrao region full of turmoil, and Hu Shandiao only walked a hundred steps before encountering three waves of battles, and it can also be found from these three waves of battles that the players in the Guangrao area have formed a strict alliance. Compared with the players in the rest of the region, they will flee once they are exposed, and the players in the Guangrao area shout "Kill Chu Dog" loudly, and then a large number of players will emerge, each with a clear division of labor to form a battle formation.

Hu Shandiao suddenly became cautious, not afraid that the players would clear the scene, but afraid that the players would make a show! He is now also the "Chu Dog" in the player's mouth, he is not afraid of ten or eight, and he can only "return" to the silver mist to avoid the limelight. Of course, it's okay to pretend that "I'm a gamer, too".

Dozens or hundreds of battles are the daily life of Guangrao City, losing a sheep or missing a chicken or emptying the rice tank, which is also the daily life of the people of Guangrao City. The grievances of the people made Chu Shisi have to send more manpower, and the number of Chu Shisi in Guangrao City has now increased to nearly 1,000, ranking second in the country.

The well-staffed Chu Shisi was divided into two shifts, which made Hu Shandiao, who was walking at night, have to be more careful, but it was useless for him to be careful, the players were very unscrupulous, there were a large number of players walking at night all over the city, shouting, fighting, screaming and other sounds were everywhere in the city, and the people of Guangrao City had obviously been used to it for a long time.

The chaotic security taught the people of Guangrao City how to prevent theft, Hu Shandiao did not expect this when he first arrived, and the sharp whistling meant that the "warning charm" was activated, and the well-staffed Chu Shi only took about ten minutes to rush to the scene of the incident. Hu Shandiao did not escape, he just "returned to his position", and waited for an hour before the Chu scholars withdrew from the ambush, and Hu Shandiao appeared in the house with a sigh.

Using the cheap materials on hand, Hu Shandiao laid out a "blinding array", as long as it is not intentionally explored, this array can still be deceived, but Hu Shandiao has little confidence that this array can be deceived for too long, so hurry up and dig the bones.
