The eighth episode smashed the Yellow Dragon
When Zhao Zheng returned to Bailong County with the two key criminals, the sky was already completely bright. The bright sun shone over the city, shining on everyone's faces, making most people's faces glow.
After some interrogation last night, Zhao Zheng has been from a small five-way street. Tian Yu asked for the confession he wanted. One of the most important confessions is Tian Yu's general description of the two women he finally caught, which is completely consistent with the situation of Princess Zhaoli and Princess Zhaoli, which means that the people he arrested are Princess Zhaoli's master and servant!
This news can be described as a mixed blessing, the good news is that Princess Zhaoli finally has a whereabouts, and the worry is that Princess Zhaoli and the two have fallen into the hands of Ye Zhiqiu's master and apprentice, and the situation is not optimistic.
The top priority now is to rescue Princess Zhaoli as soon as possible, so that the situation does not become more serious. If Princess Zhaoli had made a mistake, or was killed by Ye Zhiqiu's master and apprentice, then the current emperor would definitely be very annoyed. Many people will be implicated in this.
Thinking of this, Zhao Zheng's heart became more anxious, carrying Tian Yu and the two of them who were firmly tied in his hands, and he flew towards the Yamen of Bailong County, attracting countless eyes along the way.
When he arrived at the Yamen, Zhao Zheng immediately shouted Wang Wei's official title, and he couldn't wait to immediately tell Wang Wei what he knew, and led the army directly to Ye Zhiqiu's lair Yuegong Palace.
When the people in the yamen heard the voice, they immediately responded, and several brocade guards came out, but Wang Wei was not among them.
Zhao Zheng hurriedly asked about Wang Wei's whereabouts, and got a bad news.
Wang Wei probably found some clues, and he has been running around and has never come back. As for the exact time of his return, no one can say.
Without Wang Wei, things would be in trouble.
Zhao Zheng himself was not Ye Zhiqiu's opponent at all, and the rest of the Jinyi guards and officials had no one who could deal with Ye Zhiqiu. If there is no leader of the Ten Heavenly Martial Artists, it would be difficult to break through the Yueyue Palace, let alone rescue Princess Zhaoli.
Faced with this situation, there are two choices, one is to wait for Wang Wei to come back, and the other is to go directly to save people.
The first choice doesn't know how much time it will be delayed, if Princess Zhaoli makes a mistake during this period, things will become out of control, and in the end, she still has to run to save people.
Without Wang Wei, he could only look for other helpers. Zhao Zheng thought about it again and again, and remembered Qin Xiaoying, this person's strength is not comparable to Wang Wei, and he has an inseparable relationship with this matter, and he will definitely help.
Zhao Zheng made up his mind, Tian Yu and the old mute were handed over to Jinyiwei for custody, and then rushed to the local prison to ask to see Qin Xiaoying.
At Wang Wei's insistent request, Qin Xiaoying was imprisoned as a substitute, and now she is not doing well. Before Zhao Zheng arrived, she had been walking around the prison, her face full of distress and worry.
After meeting, Zhao Zheng told Qin Xiaoying what he knew, but the latter didn't fully believe it after hearing it.
"Do you mean to say that Princess Zhaoli was caught by human traffickers and then sold to Ye Zhiqiu's apprentice? How is this possible, Ye Zhiqiu is a well-known hero of the generation in Nangan Province, and he has done more good things than I have stolen. It's hard to believe how he could do such a thing as buying and selling people. Qin Xiaoying frowned.
"You look like a flower and jade, slender and beautiful, if you just look at your appearance, who would have thought that you are a famous thief? You can't just look at the surface of everything, you don't know the face of the person but you don't know the heart, Ye Zhiqiu is a hero on the surface, but what he does secretly is a lack of morality. Zhao Zheng explained.
Every woman likes to be praised, Qin Xiaoying is naturally no exception, she smiled when she heard this, her attitude changed, and she said with relief: "Just for your words, I will believe you once, you take me to see the two traffickers first, I will listen to their confessions, and then make plans." ”
"Okay, you come with me." Zhao Zheng pointed to the door and made a gesture of please.
Qin Xiaoying walked to the edge of the cell door, stretched out her smooth palm, and flicked it on the lock, and the lock broke in response, turning into two pieces, each falling to the ground. The seemingly sturdy cell door was no different from papier-mâché to her.
Originally, Wang Wei did not allow Qin Xiaoying to leave the prison without permission, and once he left, he would be punished according to the prison escape, but the matter was prioritized, and now in this kind of emergency, Wang Wei's words obviously have no binding force on Qin Xiaoying. If Princess Zhaoli can be rescued intact, Qin Xiaoying will no longer have to be afraid of what Wang Wei will say.
Zhao Zheng and Qin Xiaoying set off to the prison where Tian Yu and the old mute were imprisoned. Seeing Tian Yu's scorched black embarrassment, Qin Xiaoying couldn't help laughing, it was rare for someone to be injured like this.
Before this, Zhao Zheng had already cleaned up Tian Yu and the two of them, and the two of them didn't dare to hide anything at all, and explained their crimes and what they knew to Qin Xiaoying again.
After listening to the confessions of Tian Yu and the others, Qin Xiaoying finally made up her mind to do it, and decided to take a risk and break into the Yueyue Palace of Ye Zhiqiu's master and apprentice.
This matter is not trivial, even people like Qin Xiaoying do not dare to act rashly, but have to plan and then act.
Qin Xiaoying discussed with Zhao Zheng, made a detailed plan, and after confirming that nothing went wrong, she started to implement it.
She showed the waist card used as an errand in the palace, used her official status, and made corresponding arrangements for the Jinyi guards in the yamen, dividing the Jinyi guards into three waves, one wave stayed behind, one wave went to send a letter to Wang Wei, and one wave acted with her.
Zhao Zheng hated that he couldn't kill Ye Zhiqiu first and then quickly, so he naturally had to participate in the rescue operation himself. With his current strength, he can indeed help a lot.
Counting up, the overall strength of their group should be higher than that of Ye Zhiqiu's master and apprentice, then there are only Ye Zhiqiu's master and apprentice in the Moon Palace, and there are no other good players, with the lineup of their group, they can still deal with it.
Several figures flew towards Nanmen County at a very fast speed, sometimes alarming the birds in the forest, causing flocks of birds to flutter their wings and disappear into the sky.
"Ye Zhiqiu, your end is almost here." Zhao Zheng muttered in his heart.
……
In a practice room in the Yue Palace, Ye Zhiqiu sat in it, his eyes closed, urging two completely different internal forces in his body, slowly running in the meridians. These two internal forces, one yin and one yang, one cold and one hot, complemented each other in his body, making his skin half blue and half red, which was very peculiar.
The red masculine internal force comes from his body, and the blue feminine internal force comes from those innocent women who died.
This exercise is designed to fully urge the cultivator's own masculine internal force, supplemented by the feminine internal force collected from the woman's body, one yin and one yang complement each other, and together fuse a more powerful internal force of ice and fire. This kind of internal force of ice and fire has both masculine and feminine characteristics, and it can be rigid and soft to urge, and there are endless changes.
Ye Zhiqiu himself is actually quite average, at most he can be regarded as a middle-aged person, if he didn't rely on this double * cultivation to make up for the yin yuan in the woman's body, it would never be possible to achieve the achievements he has today. If he was cultivating an ordinary martial arts method, he could only reach about the Seven Heavens at most, how could he be among the second-rate masters like he was now.
The two rays of light on Ye Zhiqiu's body suddenly flickered, as if they had reached a certain limit, and then gradually faded and fell silent. He slowly opened his eyes, there was a flash of joy in his eyes, after this cultivation, his cultivation had improved a lot, and he was closer to the Ten Heavens realm.
Ten Heavens!
I don't know how many martial artists pursue their lifelong dreams, once they become a martial artist of this level, whether it is fame and fortune or a beauty, all of them are at your fingertips. With this kind of martial arts realm, you can be an official and a lord, and you can start a sect at the bottom, all based on your own likes and dislikes.
However, compared with these things, Ye Zhiqiu valued another thing more.
"After reaching the Ten Heavens, the old man's longevity will increase again, so that he can live for a few more decades. With these decades, maybe I can go one step further and reach the Eleventh Heaven Realm, which will be even more wonderful. Ye Zhiqiu twisted his beard in his hand, smiled and muttered a few words to himself, looking very proud.
The older people get, the more afraid they are of death, and no mortal is exempt from vulgarity. This desire to prolong life is not experienced by young people, and only the elderly can have this unprecedentedly strong desire.
After the joy, Ye Zhiqiu stood up and walked out of the room.
Kong Yunjie happened to be in the corridor at this time, and when he saw that the master had finished practicing, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute and greeted, "How is the master's cultivation?" ”
"As a teacher, he is one step closer to the Ten Heavens, and he has stepped half a foot into the threshold of the Ten Heavens." Ye Zhiqiu smiled.
"Congratulations Master, congratulations Master."
"In order to break through the final bottleneck, I still need a lot of women, and it is far from enough to rely on the women I just bought, you leave tomorrow and buy me ten or eight more women to come back."
"Master, the last time I traded with Xiao Wutong, I got a message that Jinyiwei was investigating the disappearance of the woman recently, and the rumors were very tight. The strength of the apprentice is low, it is better not to come forward to do this kind of thing recently, it is nothing if I have an accident, but I am afraid that it will delay your cultivation plan. Kong Yunjie bowed and excused.
"Well, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, since you have such concerns, then don't go out. After these women are used up, I will go to trade with Xiao Wutong myself, and with my ability, even if there is an accident during the transaction, I can deal with it easily. Ye Zhiqiu nodded, but he didn't blame the apprentice for this. He had always taught his apprentices to be cautious, and his actions were exactly what he wanted. If Kong Yunjie was the kind of reckless young man, he would have stabbed him to death with a sword.
"Master, more than two years ago, when the Zichu Sword Fight was just over, you promised to help me deal with Zhao Zheng and wash away the humiliation I suffered in the ring, do you remember this incident?" Kong Yunjie's eyes flashed with a hint of imperceptible hatred, and he asked tentatively.
More than two years have passed, and he has not forgotten this old feud, and in this world, the person he hates the most is Zhao Zheng. Originally, he was the pride of the sky on the rivers and lakes, but this aura was snatched away by Zhao Zheng, and he lost face in front of the world. He couldn't swallow this breath no matter how young he was, and he couldn't kill Zhao Zheng first and then quickly. Now that his master is in a happy mood, it is the perfect time to bring up this matter, and of course he can't let it go.
"When have I forgotten the things I promised you. After more than two years, even if we secretly poison Zhao Zheng now, no one will suspect our master and apprentice anymore, but there is no need to have any scruples. After I successfully break through the bottleneck and become a Tenfold Heavenly Martial Artist, I will finish this matter for you. That Zhao Zheng doesn't know the height of the sky, and he dares to win you in the ring, I must make him pay the price of blood for this. What to do with him when the time comes, it's all up to you, you want him to live, you want him to die! Ye Zhiqiu's eyes were slightly cold, and he sneered.
Kong Yunjie was overjoyed when he heard this, and thanked his master again and again, his face was full of smiles, and in his mind, there were a lot of poisonous schemes to torture Zhao Zheng, and ordinary people couldn't even think of these poisonous schemes.
……
At noon, the sun was shining.
Several figures flew through the air, and the speed was amazingly fast, like sharp arrows off the string.
"Stop!" A crisp voice sounded, the voice settled, and several people in mid-air stopped in unison.
The person who spoke was Qin Xiaoying, and she was now the leader of this group of people.
"It's easy for so many of us to enter the city and startle the snake, you stay here and wait for my news, and I'll go in alone to rescue Princess Zhaoli. Only when Princess Zhaoli is safe, can we attack Yueyue Palace with great fanfare. Qin Xiaoying commanded.
This is exactly the plan that everyone has set before, there is nothing to object, everyone nodded, and their faces were very nervous and solemn.
The stakes are very high, and even characters like Qin Xiaoying felt the overwhelming pressure of Mount Tai, which made her a little breathless.
"His grandmother's, it's a bit like when I went into the palace to steal treasures." Qin Xiaoying burst into a foul mouth, and her flying body swept forward, more than twice as fast as when she was walking with everyone.
The rest of the people remained where they were, hiding in the woods, becoming one with nature, and barely visible unless you looked closely.
Qin Xiaoying galloped all the way, and when she was about to reach Nanmen County, she slowed down and jumped over the wall. When she was wandering the rivers and lakes in the early years, she had come here, but she had never visited Ye Zhiqiu, and she didn't know where this "hero" lived. Fortunately, this kind of trivial matter could not stop her, according to her previous experience, she went directly to the most prosperous neighborhood in the county, inquired about people, and successfully found Ye Zhiqiu's residence.
On the surface, it's just a slightly larger house, and there's nothing out of the ordinary. Most of the martial arts masters are people with thousands of dollars in their pockets, and the style of living is understandable, but it is abnormal to live small.
Qin Xiaoying pretended to be casual, walked around the house, and used the perception of heaven and man and the five senses to feel the situation in the courtyard. Zhao Zheng claimed that there was an underground palace called Yueyue Palace underground, but she failed to perceive it, there were two possible surnames, either Zhao Zheng was talking nonsense, or this underground palace was built very deep and beyond the scope of the martial artist's perception.
No matter what the truth is, she has settled on this Longtan Tiger's Den today, and there is no choice.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one left and right, she jumped over the wall into the courtyard and crept towards a house. Her name as a thief is not covered, whether it is burglary or picking a lock to open a door, it is all at hand. Zhao Zheng had given her some hints before, explaining the approximate location of the entrance to the dungeon, but she didn't need to search room by house.
She tiptoed to sneak around, smashed the yellow dragon, avoided the eyes and ears of several family members in the courtyard, and directly arrived at the room where the entrance to the underground palace was located, picked the door lock, and broke in.
According to Zhao Zheng, the entrance to the secret room was under the table in the room, and after moving the table away, it would naturally trigger the mechanism, causing the entrance to flash.
Qin Xiaoying found the table in the room, checked under the table, and sure enough, she found a circle of unusual traces, which seemed to be left behind when the mechanism was activated. But any trap will always leave traces of this.
"There's a door to this!" The goddess stole her heart and jumped violently, and according to the method explained by Zhao Zheng, she moved the table, and the mechanism on the ground was touched, and it creaked open, revealing a secret passage to the underground.
This secret passage is bottomless, and I don't know how deep it is, at such a depth, it can indeed shield the perception of the ten heavenly martial artists.
The road is one foot high, and the magic is one foot high, no matter what ability is limited, there is a way to crack it.
Qin Xiaoying relied on the courage of the artist, and after seeing this secret passage, not only was she not afraid, but she became eager to try. She is a woman with courage, otherwise, she would not have dared to sneak into the palace to steal treasures. Based on years of experience, she knows that the more quick she is to do this kind of thing, the better, and if she drags her mother, it is easy to show her feet. She jumped down the secret passage, falling to the ground like a feather, and then began to explore the surroundings of the dungeon.
The area of this underground palace is not small, there are many rooms, and one of them has the most breathing sound, which quickly attracted Qin Xiaoying's attention.
Qin Xiaoying touched all the way to the room where she breathed the most, and found that there was a heavy iron door at the door, she didn't say a word, she directly took out a set of lock-picking tools, and pounded against the iron door. The lock of the iron gate was quite complicated, and it took her a lot of effort and feet to open the lock.
Taking a deep breath, she pushed open the iron door and stared intently into the room.
I saw that there were seven women lying or lying in the house, including Princess Zhaoli and Xiaoyun.
Seeing that the two of them were intact, a stone hanging in Qin Xiaoying's heart finally fell to the ground.
"Thank goodness." Qin Xiaoying sighed secretly, raised her hand, and shot six times at the six women in the room. Six internal forces flew out, hitting the acupoints on the six women with lightning speed, but they did not hit the acupoints of Princess Zhaoli.
