Chapter 684: The dog jumps over the wall
There is no possibility of an answer to this question for the time being, so we can only put it aside for the time being.
Back in the car, Miao Miao dragged her chin and seemed to be muttering something.
"What's wrong?" I asked strangely.
Miao Miao was silent for a moment and said, "Did you notice what Fairy Gu Duo said, she said that the soul substitution techniques on Hai Meirong and Hong Qingsheng are so clever that she has only seen them in her life, and they can be ranked second." ”
I didn't know why, and said, "This means that she has seen a more clever soul replacement technique, is there anything wrong?" ”
There are all kinds of wonders in the world, and Li Yaduo has also been passed down from generation to generation, perhaps, she has seen more clever techniques with her master.
Miao Miao turned her head and looked at me solemnly, and said, "It's true that this is understood, but do you think it should come out of the mouth of Duo Immortal Gu?" ”
I was stunned for a moment, and then I was violently initiated.
This sentence reveals Li Yaduo's own secret!
Something is wrong, and it shouldn't be!
Not to mention revealing his own secrets, Li Yaduo even asked me the three questions concisely, as concise as possible, never with explanations, and after answering, he served tea and sent it off. Definitely not a man of many words.
Her words not only revealed her secret, but also did not help us, only that the technique is very clever, but it is impossible to measure how clever it is, the first, second or third, it does not mean anything to us.
Not to mention, I haven't felt much yet, Miao Miao said, now that I think about it, it's really abrupt!
"Was she like this before?" I asked.
Miao Miao shook her head very firmly and said, "Absolutely not!" ”
I was silent, could it be that Li Yaduo was hinting at us something? But the question is, what does it imply?
I shook my head and tried to say, "Could it be that we are thinking too much, she just subconsciously said this?" ”
Miao Miao frowned, and she couldn't figure it out for a while.
……
After that, we waited all night, and the next morning the little girl came, and brought Hong Qingsheng and Hai Meirong over.
Miao Miao smiled and handed the little girl a lollipop, the little girl put the candy in her mouth, stretched out her little hand, and a black bead on the palm of her hand, the size of a pigeon's egg, said to me indistinctly: "Fairy Gu asked me to give this to you." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and when I took it over, I didn't recognize it at all, like beads, but the shape was irregular, and the color was a bit like a ripe mulberry fruit, black, red, black and red.
"What is this?" Miao Miao asked.
The little girl shook her head, not knowing whether she didn't know or didn't want to say, so she turned around and jumped away.
My second monk was confused, Miao Miao took it and looked at it, and she was also puzzled.
After a pause, she returned it to me and said, "Since Fairy Aunt Duo gave it to you, I will take it, maybe I will be able to use it in the future." ”
I nodded and put things away.
Li Yaduo's eyes shrank when she first saw me, obviously she had found something that surprised her, and it was on me.
This bead may be because of that reason.
Then we took a look at Hai Meirong and Hong Qingsheng, and found that the position of the two of them had returned to normal, and it was lit up in Li Yaduo's house last night.
After that, we set off back to eastern Sichuan, and when we got to the place where they were settled, it was night again.
Non-stop we went to Rouge Lake again, where the fat man and the leather-clad guest were hosting, the fat man had two dark circles under his eyes, and he was tired like a dead dog. The leather coat is the complete opposite, although he is also a little tired, but he is full of spring.
Miao Miao and I looked at each other and smiled, everything was silent.
Everything was normal, Miao Miao and I returned to Biluo Valley for a night's rest.
Although he is in Jiangxi these days, he has been in frequent contact with the eastern part of Sichuan, and he has learned that he has been working frantically for more than half a minute, and he is still in a frenzied hurry, and the defense of the urn city has been built perfectly. The construction of the fortress of the main city was also partially completed yesterday, so that there were two lines of defense in just over half a step.
But this was not enough, because the main city's Zhou Tian Protective Array had not yet been completed, and it was expected to take another five or six days.
Now Chuandong swallows a lot of materials every day, especially the arrangement of the Zhou Tian Great Array, and the materials of the magic circle were later sent a list, as well as the bed crossbow and Mithril, the consumption last time was too large, just too little, never too much.
The good news is that after Aunt Hong returned to the alliance to discuss the matter, she entrusted the unconditional support of the underworld for more than half a step, although the Daomen did not relax on the support conditions, but the supply of materials opened the door of convenience, and a large number of valuables continued to enter more than half a step.
In short, up and down in a row, in preparation for the upcoming big war, the number of Yin and Yang ships is increasing day by day, but it is still not enough.
Time passed day by day, and the construction speed of more than half a step was very fast, and after five days, the fortress was about to close in one day, and the Zhou Tian Circle only needed two days, which was one and a half shorter than the estimated time.
However, this day and a half was the result of the Miao family and Miao Zhai secretly importing a group of array mages to help. This matter was discussed between Miao Miao and Poison Butterfly, and it was not reported to the alliance, and there was no need for that.
I also privately mobilized a group of people to help, a small part of Biluo Valley, Zhou Jianbing's manpower accounted for the majority, and Huang Da's small part, which was close to 300 people.
That night, as the transfer of materials became more and more procedural, and the manpower needed was further reduced, I simply dispatched another 50 elites to follow a batch of goods for more than half a step.
Seeing many cities from afar, I almost didn't recognize them.
If the previous half-step was a commercial city and looked grandiose, now it is a "monster" with bared teeth, and it is beginning to show its hideousness.
Everything was taller and thicker, the city fortifications were densely packed, and there were also a lot of spikes on it to prevent flying monsters from diving. At first glance, Duocheng looks like a hedgehog curled up.
As soon as the fleet landed, Zhou Jianbing didn't know how to know that I was coming, so he brought some people to meet him from afar, and Huang Da was also there.
"Boss." Zhou Jianbing and Huang Da stepped forward.
I hummed and asked, "How's it going?" ”
"I'm a little tired, but I can hold on, get through it, and it won't be long before it's almost finished." Zhou Jianbing said.
I nodded, and the people who arranged it were all joining the city to do manual work, and it took a long time to rotate in a row, which was quite a test.
"Did you find anything wrong?" I asked Zhou Jianbing again.
There must still be remnants of the Ghost King Hall in the city, they have penetrated too deep into more than half a step, and one or two cleanses, even if most of them have been cleared by the previous outbreak, they can't be completely cleared.
So when Zhou Jianbing came down, I specially told him to pay attention to the movements in the city.
Zhou Jianbing hesitated: "Yes." ”
My heart jumped, and before I could ask, Zhou Jianbing said again: "My subordinates have observed several times that a small number of people are talking to each other, as if they are planning something, I secretly arrested people, but those people have quite hard bones, and they have not been tried to kill two of them." ”
"Has it been reported to more than half a step?" I asked.
"It was reported, and the person also handed it over to them, but there was no news, and because we were from above, we didn't get enough trust, and there was no result in asking for it." Zhou Jianbing was a little embarrassed.
I frowned, Zhou Jianbing's strength is not strong, but he is a good hand at intelligence, and his feeling is ** wrong.
"Boss, you know the person in charge of the audit." Huang Da said suddenly.
"Who?" I was a little surprised.
Huang Dadao: "Lu Jingshan, one of the three deputy commanders of the city guard, is now the only remaining deputy commander. ”
"Is that him?" I frowned.
Lu Jingshan is undoubtedly an old fox, with a very cunning style and a ruthless heart.
When I first came more than half a step, I had a conflict with his son and was almost chased to death, but later he found the lip print left by Bai Xiangyue on his neck, and his attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees, uprooting a very powerful underworld force entrenched here, turning his face and denying people.
After that, he intentionally or unintentionally opened the door for Huang Da to please me. But I always feel that it is very deep, so I stay away.
The last contact was the reconstruction of the Beast King Temple, and there was a force blocking it more than half a step, so I went to ask him, and he pointed to the deputy city lord, but in the end, before the investigation was found, the riot happened, and it was over.
"Have the detainees been released?" Somehow, I had a bad feeling in my heart.
"No, I've been locked up." Zhou Jianbing shook his head.
I nodded, and then asked Huang Da and Zhou Jianbing to follow me and go straight to the head of the main city more than half a pace. Because at a glance, I saw the Smiling Buddha and the Three-Eyed Lang there.
It is difficult for Zhou Jianbing to intervene in this matter, and it must be resolved internally through more than half a step, no matter what the result is, it is always necessary to ask.
The city guards and armor soldiers who had more than half a step basically recognized me, and they didn't stop me, they just let me go up, and the smiling Buddha saw me coming from a distance and greeted me with a smile.
After a few words of greeting with them, I told Zhou Jianbing what he had discovered.
The smiling Buddha's face changed slightly, and he said, "There is such a thing? ”
"Haven't you all received any reports from below?" My heart jumped, something was even more wrong, Zhou Jianbing sent many people in front and back, and Lu Jingshan made a report to the top at the very least, even if it was to avoid responsibility afterwards.
The smiling Buddha shook his head.
"It's better to believe that it exists, not to believe that it is not, Zhou Tian's big array is about to be arranged, and there are too few remnants of the Ghost King Palace, and there are no waves, but if you destroy the magic array and intercept and kill the array mage, it can still cause a lot of damage." Three-eyed Lang's face also changed slightly.
Unlike the city fortifications, it is difficult to destroy, and it is almost impossible, the magic circle is thousands of miles away, once it is destroyed and the city protection circle has an accident, it will be a lot of fun.
"Let's go, let's take a look." The Smiling Buddha said to me immediately.
I said okay, and then the smiling Buddha ordered a team of armor soldiers and went straight to Lu Jingshan's deputy commander Yamen.
The armor of more than half a step belongs directly to Bai Xiangyue, and it is much more elite than the half-step city guards recruited, all of them are more than a hundred years old, and the stronger ones even have more than two hundred years of Taoism, this is still the most ordinary armor, and the team leads all three hundred years of Taoism.
This momentum directly suppressed the city guards of the deputy commander Yamen, and no one dared to stop us, so we went straight in.
But when he arrived at Lu Jingshan's office, he found that he was not there.
The Smiling Buddha pointed to a servant and asked, "What about your Deputy Commander Lu?" ”
The official trembled and said, "Lu ...... Deputy Commander Lu just went out and didn't come back. ”
"When did you go out?" Zhou Jianbing immediately asked.
"Probably, about half a pillar of incense before." Ya Gong said.
"What a coincidence!" Zhou Jianbing's face changed.
My heart skipped a beat when I listened, and it was not such a coincidence that half a pillar of incense was just when I met Zhou Jianbing. I can't figure it out that Lu Jingshan is spying on Zhou Jianbing, and as soon as I came, he left.
It's getting closer and closer to our previous suspicions.
The Smiling Buddha sensed that something was wrong, and immediately summoned a small leader of the armor and whispered a few words in his ear, and the armor priest responded and turned away with three of his subordinates.
"Take us to the cell." I commanded the officer.
The official did not dare to slack off, and immediately led us straight to the cell.
After walking for a while, I smelled a smell of blood, which made my premonition worse and worse. Moreover, the door of the cell door was locked, and the smiling Buddha kicked the door open, and suddenly a smell of blood came to his nose.
At first glance, there were about a dozen prisoners inside, all dead, blood flowing all over the ground, bright red and bright red had not dried up, apparently not long after death.
"Lu Jingshan has escaped, he is a traitor, and these people have been killed by him!" Zhou Jianbing said.
"Their target can only be the magic circle, and if they are discovered, they may jump off the wall!" The Smiling Buddha couldn't hold back, and immediately led us out of the yamen and ran towards the place where the magic circle was arranged.
