Gaojiagang, in the lobby of the Gao family's mansion.

Lu Yu was discussing important matters with Gao Qi, the head of the Gao family, on behalf of the prime minister of the dynasty, when suddenly, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside the door, and the personal scholar who had always been inseparable from the little boy ignored the obstruction of the guards outside, and staggered over, his clothes were full of dust and blood, and his head was blue and swollen, as if he had been beaten by someone.

Seeing the appearance of the red man beside this little boy, Lu Yu's heart suddenly twitched a few times, and he didn't care about the rudeness of Gao Qi's own personnel, and asked, "Lu Zhong? Why are you so embarrassed, Childe? Didn't you accompany your son to the street? ”

"Master Lu, it's not good!"

The scholar's swollen pig-like face was full of panic, like a mournful exam: "Something happened to the child!" ”

"What! What did you say!? ”

Lu Yu was shocked and angry, and his figure instantly appeared beside the scholar, turning his hand and clasping his shoulders, his fingers as strong as iron, deeply buckled into the flesh and blood, and suddenly made the scholar scream.

"Tell me, what's going on with Childe?"

"Brother Lu, please stay calm!" Gao Qi next to him couldn't stand it, the life and death of a scholar was originally in his eyes, but the safety of the little son of the Lu family was very important, not to mention that he was in his own territory, if there was an accident, it would be difficult for him to explain to the master, so he hurriedly stopped Lu Yu and said: "You detain him like this, how can he go on." ”

When he said this, Lu Yu calmed down a little, took a deep breath, let go of his fingers, took a few steps back, and said coldly: "What the hell is going on, quickly explain clearly." ”

The scholar Lu Zhong cried with a sad face, sobbing and conveying a bad news: "Master Lu, Master Gao, the little young master went to the port to hang out, was plotted by someone, and is now seriously injured!" ”

The little scholar's words were like a thunderbolt from the sky, and when he landed on his head, not only Lu Yu, but even Gao Qi, a big man whose relationship with the Lu family is not close now, was also shocked to the point that his head was buzzing, and his face turned pale.

"Where's the little boy?" Lu Yu asked in a trembling voice.

"After the young master was plotted, I led a group of servants to rush over immediately to rescue the young master. The murderer fled immediately after committing the murder, Lu Da and the others had already chased after him, and I and a few subordinates were responsible for carrying the young master back, and invited Dr. Xue Shen to accompany him for diagnosis and treatment, but ......" The little scholar said this, glanced at Gao Qi, as if he had some scruples, and his tone paused.

"But how?" Lu Yu hurriedly asked, and said, "If you have anything to say, don't hide it, the head of the Gao family is not an outsider." ”

"This ......"

When Gao Qi heard this, his expression immediately became bitter, and he had the intention to defend and avoid it, but he couldn't say it anymore, and he could only secretly regret it: I knew that I shouldn't have let them enter our Gaojia Port, and now they were tied to the Lu family's warship.

"It's just...... The young master's injuries are extremely serious, and he has already injured his children and grandchildren...... Doctor Xue said that even if he found a few rare miracle medicines in the world, he could only repair the corroded limbs, and he would not lift them for the rest of his life, and he would no longer be humane! The little scholar stubbornly told a fact with difficulty.

"What ......" Lu Yu took a few steps back, the whole person seemed to be seven or eight years old, and his master's little son followed him out on an errand, but he was deprived of his lower body and cut off his children and grandchildren, this news shocked his hands and feet cold, and his head was dizzy.

But then he clenched his fists, and a murderous intent surged up in his heart.

"Lu Zhong, who is the murderer? What does it look like? ”

Lu Zhong secretly glanced at Lu Yu's expression, and his face was worried: "Murderer...... The murderer is a girl about seven or eight years old! ”

"A little girl about seven or eight years old can hurt the little boy, Lu Zhong, are you lying to me?" Lu Yu's fierce gaze was like a wounded lone wolf, staring at the little scholar viciously, the killing intent and cold in his eyes were like a cold current from the Arctic Ice Field, which could freeze people's souls to pieces.

Gao Qi was also puzzled, with doubts on his face: The Lu family's method of soldiering, no matter how bad the favored little boy is, he shouldn't be plotted by a little girl!?

The so-called "soldier" method is a secret method handed down from the royal family.

You must know that practicing martial arts is a gradual process, which requires great effort, long-term loneliness and pain to gain results, and even many people have hard work but no return, and waste their lives. And those rich and powerful disciples of high-ranking families, even if they have rich cultivation resources and superb exercises to cultivate, they often only want to get it but don't want to pay, and they don't want to practice in winter and summer, and they just want to sit back and enjoy it.

There is no such cheap thing in the world. But the truth that laziness is the first driving force of human progress exists and is correct, and in order to be as lazy and slippery as possible and enjoy life, generation after generation of geniuses have devoted themselves to it. As a result, there are really people who have figured out such a trick without side effects.

The method of the soldiers is to select a large number of young children with excellent martial arts qualifications, castrate them from an early age or use other methods to extinguish their normal emotions, so that their minds are extremely single, and their mental attention is easier to focus on, and then, grant them the basic part of the most authentic advanced exercises, and give them sufficient cultivation resources to assist, so that they can practice the highest and purest true qi.

When the disciples of the high-ranking families reach adulthood, these people will instill in them the skills they have worked hard to practice, because the exercises they have practiced are the same, the skills are pure, and they are not mixed, and the disciples of the high-ranking families have mastered the higher-level mental methods of the same sect, and they only need a very short time of refining, they can smoothly absorb their skills for their own use, and the level of their skills has increased rapidly, and they can easily break into the fifth grade of the gate that ordinary people can not conflict with in their lifetimes, and they have become a generation of masters.

And these "soldiers", after instilling their skills, will be greatly damaged, and then they will have to start cultivating from scratch, and after a few years, they will finally recover their skills, and then they will have to instill skills into another group of high-ranking disciples who have grown up, and so on...... The fate of these soldiers is either the death of good luck or the replacement of a new batch of growing soldiers, and then secretly disposed of by the master's family.

This kind of secret method passed down by the royal family is widely spread among the people, but all the family forces with enough financial resources to support it will secretly cultivate soldiers, the difference is only the number of soldiers, the advantages and disadvantages of the martial arts techniques practiced, and the efficiency of the transformation of true qi. Even if the secret method circulated among the people has serious side effects, making a fifth-grade master at high speed is also a sure-fire deal in people's hearts.

With the dual prominent status of the head of the Lu family and the prime minister of the Daqian Dynasty, the number and quality of the Lu family's soldiers are absolutely top-notch. With the current head of the family for the little son, he will definitely cultivate him at all costs and infuse him with skills. In fact, this is indeed the case, this little boy is only seventeen years old, and he already has the fifth-grade skill, and he is already a good hand in martial arts alone.

Such a character was beaten by a seven- or eight-year-old girl, and if she has a little normal thinking, no one who has common sense about martial arts will believe it!

"Master Lu, how dare the villain lie to you?! Besides, the young master treats me very well, what reason do I have to speak for the little beast who hurt my benefactor! The little scholar knelt down with a thud, and shook his head vigorously on the ground, not at all in pain, and his head broke and bled in a few strokes. Because he knew that if he didn't show great loyalty as much as possible today, and played the bitter trick to the point that others couldn't bear to watch it, he, the celebrity next to the young master, would definitely be held accountable from above, and the end would be extremely miserable.

"Okay, I'll trust you once! Don't knock, be careful of soiling the floor of my brother's house. Lu Yu snorted, after such a long time, his mood was already well controlled, and he turned his head to look at Gao Qi and said, "Brother Gao, this is your territory, and I ask you to help me when chasing the murderer." When the murderer is caught, my grandfather will definitely be grateful to you. ”

"I wanted to resign, but did I?!" Gao Qi slandered in his heart, don't look at Lu Huan's words so beautifully, but anyone with a little emotional intelligence can understand the threat in his words, let alone Gao Qi, who manages the cumbersome affairs of the huge port?

However, he didn't dare to disobey Xiangye, who had already controlled the three nearby counties by his direct forces, so he could only smile and agree, but he also comforted himself in his heart: Since he has been pulled onto Xiangye's warship, he really needs to make some achievements and make a name for himself.

"The affairs of the Lu family are the affairs of my Gaoqi, and if the murderer dares to sneak attack Lu Gongzi in my territory, he will not give us both sides." Gao Qi slapped his chest and expressed his determination, "Brother Lu, don't worry, as long as the murderer is still within a radius of thousands of miles, he will definitely not be able to escape from my grasp!" ”

"Then thank you, brother."

"Where, where."

※※※

The imperial capital, where the capital of the Daqian Dynasty is located.

This emperor was built during the previous Phoenix Dynasty, and after the Daqian Dynasty overthrew the Phoenix Dynasty and established the country, it was renamed "Anyuan". However, in the mouths of local residents and ordinary people all over the world, they only call it the imperial capital, and rarely mention the official name of "Anyuan City".

Anyuan City is one hundred and forty miles long from east to west and seventy-six miles wide from north to south. There are twenty-eight city gates, each named after the twenty-eight zodiac stars of Middle-earth. The imperial capital has several small cities in the southeast, northwest, and northwest, each defending Gyeonggi, and stationing several loyal and royal soldiers and horses.

The key points to be highlighted this time - Huang Tianbang and Chijingtai are located in the east of Anyuan City.

The red essence platform, the whole body is made of red fire refined copper, and is mainly used as a hanging yellow heaven list. Its height is 58 zhang, 500 steps from east to west, 700 steps from north to south, there are no steps up and down, the outer wall is smooth as a mirror, even if the master has borrowed strength out of thin air, if it is not for the light work has reached the point of transcendence, it is impossible to go up to the red fine platform at all.

And the red fire essence copper is extracted from the meteorite that landed in the nine heavens, and contains the true fire of the sun, therefore, the red essence platform made of red fire essence copper is shrouded in hunting flames all year round, and the temperature is extremely high.

Generally speaking, if it weren't for the light skills, which had reached the point of being extraordinary, the body protection skills would also have reached the realm of inviolability, and they would not be able to be on the stage at all.

And the Yellow Heaven List is a holy relic that fell from the sky two thousand years ago, which can search for the heavens on behalf of the heavens, query all kinds of information of all the martial artists in the Middle Earth Divine Prefecture, and can also accurately evaluate the ranking of the merits of individual martial arts cultivation and magic cultivation. On the day of its accession to the WTO, all forces in Middle-earth Divine Prefecture fought for it, and suffered heavy casualties.

In the end, this treasure fell into the hands of the Daqian Dynasty and became one of the three treasures that suppressed the national fortune. In order to ensure that this item was not taken away by others, the Daqian Dynasty protected Huang Tianbang extremely tightly, and there were 5,000 turtle and elephant troops stationed around Chijingtai all year round. This turtle elephant army is the elite army of the Great Qian Dynasty, trained by the secret method of soldiers, once the formation is deployed, the great master who is not the first grade cannot resist.

In addition to the 5,000 Turtle and Elephant Army, there are also the three great masters of Confucianism on the Chijing Platform who personally come forward to protect them.

The three great masters of Confucianism who guard Chijingtai in contemporary times are also the national teachers above all officials, and their status is extremely honored in the Daqian Dynasty, named Wuliu, Qingwei, and Mingjing. They are all the founding heroes of the Great Qian Dynasty, generations by the emperor of this dynasty, when they were young, they traveled the world, visited teachers and friends, and when they had achievements, they were recalled, and entered the Yingtian Academy, which is known as the "royal private academy", for further study.

……

The sky is clear, and the sun is like a furnace.

The flames on the Red Spirit Platform were raging, and the power of the Great Sun True Fire emitted extremely high temperatures, making the space within a radius of hundreds of zhang extremely stuffy.

In the center of the mirror-like countertop, there is a huge archway, and on top of the archway hangs a yellow list made of unknown things.

Under the archway, three middle-aged men dressed in black, white, and blue Confucian costumes are sitting in the center of the Chijing Platform with their eyes closed, absorbing the power of the sun around them, and the raging fire of the great sun is nothing.

"Buzz ——!"

Suddenly, the Yellow Sky Bang, which was motionless despite the torrential rain and the furious blowing of the storm, trembled without a trace of evidence beforehand, and in an instant, yellow clouds were born from the Yellow Sky Bang, and there was no wind automatically, and soon the entire Chijingtai was enveloped.

"Why is that?"

The three great grandmasters were all stunned, they had guarded Huang Tianbang for so many years, and they had never seen such a vision appear in Huang Tianbang.

"Whoop ——!"

After Huang Tianbang sent out a yellow cloud, the volume instantly expanded by hundreds of times, like a thick yellow wall, on which flashing handwriting constantly jumped.

"Ninth ......"

"Eighth Grade ......"

"The Seventh ......"

The three great masters of Confucianism looked up, but saw that on the thick yellow cloud wall, the handwriting was like flowing water quickly, and the entries at the beginning of the pedestrian names were flying up and down, endlessly, and were divided into several areas with a very recognizable color, which was clear at a glance.

"Fifth grade!"

When the flickering handwriting appeared in this area, the speed of the flickering and rushing of the words immediately slowed down, and after a while, the luster of all the handwriting was extinguished as if the power had been cut off, except for one line of handwriting, which shimmered.

"Su Lingxuan, the eighth hundred and sixty-eighth in the fifth grade, a visitor from another realm, about sixteen years old, Xi has the twenty-four solar terms sword duel (fragment) of Songshan Academy, the dragon king's swordsmanship, the tiger swordsmanship, etc., the skill is about the fifth grade level, and it is now in the Gaojia port of the East China Sea......"

Seeing the content of the handwriting, the faces of the three great masters changed at the same time, his name was Su Lingxuan, and he was a visitor from another realm, he couldn't be wrong, it was him!

"That kid has made my Confucian sect suffer heavy losses, hundreds of years of painstaking planning to turn it into water, and he still dares to enter this realm alone, what a big dog!"

"You can't spare him this time!"

The two Confucian Sect Masters whose tempers seemed to have been affected by the Great Sun True Fire were furious, and one of them, Huo, got up and escaped a sword talisman from his sleeve, "Two senior brothers, I will notify you and let the academy send someone to arrest this son." ”

The other two nodded slightly, and did not object.

"Whew——!"

The next moment, a streamer broke through the yellow clouds and disappeared somewhere in the imperial capital.
