Chapter 43 Night Exploration of Zhao's Mansion
The Taiqing Liangyi Lock Spirit Array is the mountain guarding array of the Jindan Sect of the Emei Quanzhen Southern Sect, which is said to be able to disturb people's minds and minds, making it impossible for people to operate the true yuan and perform the Dao method. For this formation, Xu Changqing had only seen it from the classics, and had not seen it with his own eyes, and the main reason why he judged that the large array arranged in the Changhe countryside was the Taiqing Liangyi Lock Spirit Array was that his mental and spiritual consciousness lost contact after entering the Tucheng of Changhe Township, as if he had been separated from his body. At the same time, the two brothers and sisters of the Huang family also sensed that something was wrong, and they all looked at Xu Changqing, and Huang Shan wanted to ask the reason, but was immediately gagged by the clever sister Huang Juan instead of Xu Changqing, because she noticed that someone was spying on her.
After the group walked into the village, the three of them and the descendants of the Tang family were arranged to rest in the miscellaneous courtyard of the Zhao Mansion, while Tang Wei and his relatives and friends needed to go to the main courtyard to meet the relatives and friends of the Zhao family. Next, according to local customs, a three-day feast will be held in Changhe Township, and Xu Changqing and others and those subordinates will only be allowed to go to the main courtyard to drink the wedding wine on the third day. In order to take care of Xu Changqing and the others, the Zhao family specially arranged them in a separate room in the courtyard, separating them from those descendants of the Tang family.
When Xu Changqing entered the house, he noticed that something was wrong, and when the subordinates of the Zhao Mansion left, he signaled the Huang family brothers and sisters not to speak, and then rummaged in the house, and now there is a copper pipe connected to the inconspicuous place in the eight corners of the house, and it is conceivable that someone must be watching on the opposite side of the pipe at this moment.
Xu Changqing smiled coldly and instructed the brother and sister to find water to wash themselves and change into new clothes in the baggage, and then he said that he went out to find out if there was anything to eat, and walked out of the room alone. Sure enough, when he was about to walk out of the yard, he was stopped by the Zhao family at the door, and a person came from the side room, and after pretending to ask a few words, he asked the next person to find some wine and food, and warned him not to walk around at will. Xu Changqing, who returned to the courtyard, was soon surrounded by the subordinates of the Tang family, who were also under house arrest, and the people who were bored pulled him to tell fortunes.
Although Xu Changqing can't use the Taoist method to observe fortune and push his life, but after all, he has a deep foundation in numerology, just relying on the face of the warlock of the rivers and lakes, plus one of the three types of life, the big six gods are enough to bluff these Shanxi masters into a stunned stunned, and they all call him a living immortal, and even the Zhao family outside the house can't help but come over and ask him to count his life.
When Xu Changqing was telling fortunes to these people, he asked a lot of things on the side, and he also had an understanding of the Zhao family here, especially why the Zhao family would target the Jianghu warlocks so much this time, and found the reason. The first generation of the Zhao family who lived here was in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, and the genealogy handed down from the ancestors had experienced nearly forty generations, and the Qing soldiers had been called Zhaojiatun before entering the customs. Later, after the massacre of Zhang Xianzhong, the direct side branches of the Zhao family suffered heavy casualties, and some of the policies adopted by the Qing soldiers to move to the local clan to prevent them from making chaos made the Zhao family gradually decline and was replaced by the later Tang family, and the original Zhao Jiatun was also divided into more than a dozen pieces.
Although the Zhao family has declined, there is always a little bit of foundation, the reason why he married the Tang family this time is mainly because he saw that the troubled times were falling, and the head of the Zhao family wanted to find a support for the Zhao family, so as not to become a fish in the mouth.
The marriage between the Zhao family and the Tang family can be regarded as a big event in the local area, and all the people from the surrounding towns and villages came to congratulate them, and some of the Jianghu warlocks who heard the news also came to say some auspicious words and ask for a reward. At the beginning, the Zhao family also followed local customs, and those who came did not refuse, hoping to be happy. But two days ago, there was a snitch among the warlocks who came to ask for money, and entered the Zhao family's house at night to steal the heirloom of the Zhao family. Now the snitch is being imprisoned in the Zhao family's dungeon, and after the wedding banquet is over, he will decide what to do with him. After this incident, the Zhao family also began to expel those Jianghu warlocks, so as not to have any accidents at the wedding banquet.
Xu Changqing sorted out the information he heard, and after careful analysis, he felt that the Taiqing Liangyi Lock Spirit Array was very likely to be related to what the snitch had stolen. From the Zhao family's subordinates, it was learned that after the snitch was caught, some Jianghu warlocks said that they were unwell and took the initiative to leave Changhe Township. It can be seen from this that the snitch must have touched this Taiqing Liangyi Lock Spirit Array when he stole something, which made a few cultivators among those Jianghu Warlocks feel that something was wrong.
In addition, he also figured out why there is such a big array as the Taiqing Liangyi Lock Spirit Array here, the Zhao family is simply the family of guardians arranged by Zhu Di here, but because of the age, they have long forgotten their responsibilities, and the village of Changhe Township must be where one of the three Town Soul Towers is located, and the so-called heirloom stolen by the snitch may be the town weapon of the Town Soul Tower. Otherwise, after stealing the Zhao family's heirlooms, the Taiqing Liangyi Lock Spirit Array, which was buried in the ground with the Soul Suppression Tower, would automatically operate, suppressing the Soul Suppression Tower and preventing it from rushing out of the ground.
Xu Changqing didn't expect that as soon as he came here, he found the location of a soul suppression tower, in addition to lamenting his good luck, he was also very satisfied with Huang Juan's life science, it was only a little more than a month to be able to have such results, which is really commendable. He wasn't too worried about his own form in front of him, although he couldn't use the Dao Method, but he realized that some of his abilities in the Nine Streams Dao were not restricted, such as still being able to absorb the power of the Wish and the Five Elements Spiritual Qi to refine himself, he could still use the Divine Eye, and the main thing was that his Five Elements Dao Law could still be used. Even if these are all imprisoned by the Taiqing Liangyi Lock Spirit Array, with his current strength, he is inferior to swords and guns, and even Western firearms can't hurt his mixed yuan golden body in the slightest, and he will definitely not have the slightest trouble dealing with the ordinary people here. Therefore, he was bold enough to go to the dungeon of the Chen family in the dead of night, meet the snitch, and ask him what kind of treasure he had stolen.
After entering the middle of the night, most of the people who were monitoring Xu Changqing withdrew because there was no appearance, and only a few remained in the room in this courtyard, just in case. After Xu Changqing let the Huang family brothers and sisters sleep, he took out a night robe from his sleeve, then walked to the back wall of the room, picked up the earth spirit method in the Five Elements Dao Method, and slowly walked forward. After he passed, the earthen wall was restored to its original state, as if nothing had happened just now.
This is also the wonder of Xu Changqing's Five Elements Dao Method, although the power cannot be compared with those decent Five Elements Dao Method, but it can do many things that the authentic Dao method cannot do, such as the wall piercing technique just now, which is the authentic wall piercing technique of Laoshan Mountain, can not do it so silently.
Although the structure of the Zhao family's house is complicated, it is still constructed and planned in accordance with the Northern School Kanyu Law, and Xu Changqing already knows the specific location of the dungeon, and uses the method of piercing the wall all the way to the murderous position of the Zhao family's house. After passing through the horse shed in the backyard of the Zhao Mansion, they came to a relatively well-guarded earthen house, and there were many Zhao family members around the house, judging from the way several of them walked, they should be foreign masters who had practiced leg kung fu.
Although Xu Changqing's Five Elements Dao Technique can pass through the earth wall, but if it has to pass through the ground, it can only be the Earth Escape Technique of the Authentic Dao Technique, if he buries himself without the Dao Method, he can't escape a dead word, unless he cultivates to reach the congenital fetal breath, he can be fine. At the moment, judging from the position of the surrounding guards, it is impossible to give Xu Changqing a chance to take advantage of it, especially the several masters at the entrance of the dungeon are very strict, and if they break through, the alarm bell on the side will ring immediately.
At this time, a subordinate from the Zhao Mansion who sent supper came over from the path in front of Xu Changqing, and Xu Changqing immediately thought about it. When he passed by his side, he immediately took action, grabbed the food basket with one hand, and grabbed the throat of his subordinate with the other, and with a slight force, he crushed his throat bone and died of breathlessness. If it was before, Xu Changqing would not have taken people's lives at will like this, but since he closed the mountain and comprehended the Nine Streams Dao, his state of mind cultivation has been raised to the top of refining qi and transforming gods, and the idea of doing things casually and taking the life of ants is imperceptibly affecting him, making him have a strange idea that except for the people he cares about, everyone else is ants. Although in normal times, he will deliberately suppress this kind of thought that makes him feel uncomfortable, but when he has to make a decision, he will not hesitate to deal with things with this thought, just like he is doing now.
Xu Changqing changed into a subordinate costume, deliberately lowered the felt hat on his head, and walked towards the dungeon with the basket.
"Why is it so late today, Lao Tzu's stomach is almost sticking to his back, next time if you are so late to be careful about your skin and flesh!" A guard of the Zhao family guarding the main gate greeted him with great dissatisfaction, and did not look at people, grabbed the food basket, turned around and walked to the courtyard, put the top good food and wine on the table of the three people at the door of the dungeon, said a few words as if flatteringly, and then carried the rest of the food to beckon the people around to gather and eat.
At this time, the guard in charge of ringing the alarm bell walked in front of Xu Changqing, suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Xu Changqing, and asked suspiciously, "Who are you? Why have I never seen you before?"
When he asked this sentence that should not be asked, Xu Changqing's answer to him was a fist. Since he suffered the loss of that master in the Flying Stone Mountain Crypt, Xu Changqing no longer underestimated those fists and feet, and in the first half year of the mountain closure, he would spare part of his time to practice his fists and feet almost every day. With his current fists, feet, kung fu and physical strength, he is confident that even if he encounters such a master again, he will be able to take his life within ten moves.
Xu Changqing's ** strength, which is already comparable to the second grade of the gods, is really overkill to deal with an ordinary guard, when the fist just touched the person's head, his head burst silently like a watermelon, making Xu Changqing feel inexplicably nauseous. But before the feeling of disgust could rush to the top of his head, he drew his waist knife from the guard's waist and rushed into the ordinary guard who had not had time to react, and his hand raised and fell, without hesitation. Under his strong force, the human body turned into tofu, and the light one was cut into several pieces, and he didn't even have time to scream and return to Huangquan.
When Xu Changqing slaughtered those guards, those masters immediately reacted, one of them hurriedly rushed to the alarm bell, and the other two killed Xu Changqing. The master in front of him was about to rush to the side of the alarm bell and ring it, Xu Changqing ignored it, the other two masters kicked his heavy legs, clasped the table top of the stone table in front of him with one hand, picked it up effortlessly, and threw it out towards the master who rang the alarm bell.
"Be careful!" Although someone reminded him, the spinner stone table was too fast, and before the master could react, he was hit in the chest by the edge of the table. Then the whole person flew out with the tabletop, and hit the earthen wall next to it, and the whole person was smashed into two pieces by the stone tabletop, one section was held in the air by the stone tabletop inserted into the earthen wall, and the other fell to the ground softly.
Seeing the tragic death of his companion and the toughness of Xu Changqing**, the remaining two masters were all stunned with fright. However, how can the master duel give you time to be stunned, Xu Changqing took a step forward, his hands rushed out and grabbed the throats of the two at the same time, and with a hard pinch, he heard two clicks, and the two of them lost their breath in their hands, and their bodies were softly lifted by him.
"No, don't kill me!I'm not going to say anything!" The guard who snatched the food basket from Xu Changqing's hand saw his companion and the usual god master all die tragically in the blink of an eye, and he was so frightened that he was urinating, and a commotion came out of his crotch, and the whole person sat on the ground limply, crying and begging for mercy.
Xu Changqing looked at him indifferently, turned around and walked towards the dungeon door, as if he was ready to let him go, the man also breathed a sigh of relief, and a kind of joy appeared on his face for the rest of his life. However, Xu Changqing didn't look back at this time, and kicked the saber that fell on the ground with his foot, a cold light flashed, the saber was inserted into the wall, buzzing, and a trace of blood gathered together and fell to the ground, and at the same time, the person's head fell from his neck, and his face still maintained that happy expression.
"Shalm, whew!" Xu Changqing took a deep breath, calmed down the distracting thoughts in his heart caused by the killing just now, pushed open the door of the house, and lowered the wooden ladder next to him into the dungeon.
At this time, a person's voice suddenly sounded in the dungeon, saying: "Zunjia, what a ruthless technique, a few breaths can kill more than a dozen people, see that Zunjia is not affected by this place at all, it should be a master of the inner under the command of the prince! Disrespectful, disrespectful!"
