It seems that even Fan Zuo didn't expect Ding Qin to be so happy. After saluting the military order, the two went directly on the road.

It is really a long distance from Zhongjing County, where the Tiannan Prefecture is located. But fortunately, neither of them left the heart of delay, basically set off at dawn, and only found a place to settle after dark, and walked for more than ten hours every day.

Along the way, Ding Qin also learned a lot about Fan Zuo. Fan Zuo was not born in a famous family, his father was just a farmer, and then Fan Zuo met his benefactor by chance, and worshiped his disciples, which showed extraordinary qualifications, and he cultivated all the way to make great progress.

Later, under the recommendation of his mentor, Fan Zuo entered the shogunate, starting from a security officer under the military command office, working hard and making many achievements, and rose to the county military order step by step;

Of course, it is precisely because of his background that Fan Zuo is upright and not tactful enough, and he has suffered a lot of losses over the years. After communicating with Ding Qin on the road, he also told Ding Qin a lot of life principles as an elder, which made Ding Qin have a good impression of him.

After five days of travel, nearly two-thirds of the way was reached. But from the sixth day to the evening, both of them felt that something was wrong.

Because of the several lines that have been traveled on this day, soldiers and horses are being mobilized. Moreover, on the way, they also encountered several groups of troops that had already formed a formation and were ready to standby.

These counties are divided into two counties. Generally speaking, if there are certain situations in a county, it is possible to mobilize troops to deal with them. However, it is very rare for two counties to be transferred at the same time.

Unless, there is some big bandit unrest.

However, there are no bandits in this area.

When staying at the inn in the evening, the two of them expressed this question in unison. In conclusion, Fan Zuo said that if he encountered a similar situation the next day, he would definitely identify himself and ask the responsible persons of those armies.

Unexpectedly, the next morning, they really met.

The well-organized army was about 500 men, led by an officer in his early forties.

As a county commissioner, Fan Zo has a series of privileges. The officers of that army treated each other with courtesy, and reported to Fan Zuo that the state commander had recently ordered Ruyifang to gather people to rebel, and demanded that all counties and counties immediately gather their troops, form a siege of the nearest Ruyifang branches, and launch a collective offensive at 12 o'clock this night.

Ruyifang rebellion?

This news surprised both Ding Qin and Fan Zuo.

Because they all understand that the current strength of Ruyifang is simply not enough to compete with the shogunate.

Moreover, Ruyibo has not made any rebellious actions for many years, and even in many cases, it will reluctantly show favor to the shogunate. Suddenly rebelling? This is very unreasonable.

When asked about the details of the rebellion, no one knew it. It's like looking for Ding Qin, there are only requirements in the order, and there is no reason.

Just as the officer revealed, that night, the troops of each county acted at the same time. Although the large and small branches of Ruyifang were prepared before the transfer of troops in various counties, few of them were basically spared.

Because in terms of the number of people alone, the strength of the two sides is too different.

But it doesn't stop there.

The movement of troops in various counties and counties has caused a part of the daily garrison air defense to be weak. Some bandits in Tiannan Prefecture seized the opportunity to cause chaos, and even the military garrisons of several counties were breached; and some thieves who fought petty and made trouble also seized the opportunity to make some famous names in some small towns and towns.

After that, Ruyifang no longer seemed to hope to live in peace with the government, and the remnants of the slaughter were reduced to zero, and began to deal with the shogunate again, and the entire Tiannan Prefecture changed from peaceful and tranquil to riots everywhere overnight.

Fan Zuo sighed more than once, saying that the order of the state commander was too reckless and reckless. Ding Qin didn't know how to evaluate this. In fact, he was very concerned about what happened to the headquarters of Ruyifang.

Because there, there is very likely to be another treasure, the Eight Immortal Boat!

Just the day before they arrived at the state capital, news began to spread among the people, saying that the headquarters of Ruyifang was broken through by the state commander himself, and the traitors and rebels were killed.

However, there is no rumor about whether there are treasures or not.

Ding Qin already had two guesses in his heart.

First, rebellion is real, but the purpose is not rebellion. If there are really eight immortal boats in Ruyifang, and it is found that the headquarters of the Nine Turnstile has been attacked, it is very likely that the Eight Immortal Boats are in danger, so they use rebellion to cover up people's eyes and ears;

Second, the rebellion is fake, and the purpose of the heavy army crusade is the Eight Immortal Boats. If all this was done by the state of Tiannan Prefecture, then it would be easy to explain this last step. The shogunate faction originally had a practice, and for the sake of greed and hegemony, other relics would form an unavoidable temptation.

Of course, if the so-called legend of Pangu is true.

When they arrived at the state capital, the two of them first found an inn to live in. Due to the fact that the two successive orders of the state commander were a little rough, in order to ensure that the state commander was not coerced, Fan Zuo decided to enter the state government first to find out the truth by signing up for righteousness.

Half a day later, Fan Zuo returned. He told Ding Qin that the order was indeed given by the state commander, and that the state commander did not show anything abnormal. As for why he wanted to see Ding Qin, the state commander did not say it explicitly, but only urged Fan Zuo to bring Ding Qin to him as soon as possible, and there was something important to discuss.

Although things are getting more and more strange, Ding Qin also knows that it is a blessing or a curse, and it is a disaster that cannot be avoided. Moreover, with his current cultivation of the third and fifth levels of his spiritual power, even if he encounters any tricks, it should not be a big problem to protect himself and get out, unless he is really unlucky to get home.

After a little preparation, he followed Fan Zuo out of the door. However, he didn't go far before he collided with a fortune teller.

After the fortune teller settled down, he looked at Ding Qin with a smile, "This son, this person comes and goes, as long as the two of us can bump into each other, it seems that it must be a lot of fate." Seeing that the two servants are in a hurry, they must have important things to do, so it is better to calculate a hexagram with me first, set a good fortune and a bad luck, and prepare in advance, what do you think?"

Ding Qin has never believed in fortune telling, and he doesn't have the heart to pay attention to these tricks at this time, so he said directly, "I don't ......"

He was going to say, "I don't believe that. But when he saw this man's face, he forcibly held back his words.

Because this person is none other than the old man who told him about the Nine Turns, Ruyifang, and the Shogunate Sect, and persuaded himself not to get too involved in the theft of the magic weapon in Nanhai County.

He actually wore a set of physiognomy clothes!

Moreover, looking at his eyes, there was always a sense of wanting to tell Ding Qin something. Could it be that he wants to remind himself of something in this way?

The old man was actually very good at acting, and he smiled, "You didn't mean it, I know, I know." That's why it's said that there is fate. How about it, do the calculations?"

Fan Zuo also seemed to be a little disgusted by this set, but his words were polite, "This old brother, we still have something to do, if you are short of money, I have it here." ”

As he spoke, he pulled out.

The old man waved his hand again and again, "Don't don't, I'm not one of those guys who deceive people under the guise of deception." I can't afford the grace of no name and no point, and I don't want it. ”

He looked at Ding Qin again, "This little brother, it's better for you to decide." ”

Ding Qin nodded, "Since the seniors have said so, it's better to count it as a hexagram." I just don't know what algorithm my predecessors were?"

The old man smiled slightly, "In this way, it's better to test a word." ”

Ding Qin thought about it and wrote the word "mystery" on the ground.

Of course, he knew that if the old man wanted to tell him, no matter what he wrote, he would get the information. It's just that now he is full of puzzles in his heart, and he wrote it without much thought.

The old man looked at it, asked Ding Qin for his birthday, and looked at Ding Qin's palmistry, and finally said, "This hexagram is not good." ”

Ding Qin's expression was very calm, and he asked, "What's the explanation?"

The old man said, "Let's talk about your word first." You two have traveled a long way, and your faces are tired, and although you have important things, it must not be a happy event. Otherwise, firstly, the expression is different, and secondly, I will not write this mystery. I'm afraid that the two of you are worried and don't know the future. ”

Ding Qin and Fan Zuo didn't say anything, and listened to him continue.

The old man said again, "Say this word again." The word is a mystery, with a meter in the middle, but when you write it, it looks like three lines intersecting. In the world, there are only two ways of yin and yang, or the art of the five elements, or the method of gossip, and the appearance of three is not the way of balance, and it is difficult to last for a long time. ”

As soon as he said this, Ding Qin immediately understood. He was actually hinting at the current affairs between the Nine Turns, the Ruyi Workshop and the Shogunate faction.

"Tell me about what you wrote. The bottom is very short, which means that you are unable to control this unbalanced three. Therefore, if you encounter something related to the three, it is better not to try to control it. ”

"However, things are not without their turnaround. The left part of the side you wrote, the part that comes out from below, is exactly like a foot. It also implies that if you are willing to take the plunge and do it, you may be able to do well. Also, I calculated your birthday just now, and you should avoid people, official power, and mansions recently, otherwise it is easy to have unforeseen disasters. If you have such an arrangement in your itinerary, you might as well think long-term. ”

After speaking, the old man smiled again, "Okay, that's all I have to tell you." As for the remuneration, as I said, we are chance, and we don't have to be measured in gold. Oh yes, I have one more thing for you. If you are really in trouble, it can help you get out of this situation. ”

With that, he took out a small roll of silk from his arms, smiled and handed it to Ding Qin.

Ding Qin took it and opened it, and found that there was a poem copied on it, to the effect that life is in the world, based on kindness, filial piety first, and loyalty as the industry, and there can be blessings.

If ordinary people read this poem, they will not find anything abnormal. But in Ding Qin's eyes, it is very different.

Because this is not an ordinary silk roll!
