The roads are overgrown with weeds, the trees on both sides have been cut down, and the grass huts have been deserted, which is a symbol of the weakening of the country.

The country has strength, and trees will be planted on both sides of the road, trees are used to mark the distance of the road, and grass houses are to entertain guests. These are things that need to be maintained and guarded, and when the country's strength declines, no one wants to maintain the roads anymore. The same is true for waterways, where there are no boats or bridges on the river, which also represents the decline of the country.

When Wu existed, the roads on the side of the country were accessible, and crops were planted around it. Now it is a depression, the roads are covered with weeds, and there are no ruts in sight; The bridge over the river in the distance was also dilapidated and unusable.

There is only one mound left in the national shrine, and the buildings on it have long disappeared, because no Wu people will ever come here to worship the ancestors of the Wu country.

Yun Yao and Dan Ji fell in the distance, and did not rush closer, Yun Yao picked up the Tianyan Tong and found that the battle formation around the Guoshe was really placed: "This is the Eight Treasures Array?" ”

"I haven't heard of it." Dan Ji's eyesight is not as good as Yun Yao's, she only vaguely sees something in the distance, but she can't see clearly.

"The Eight Treasures Array is not a military array, but a method for the selection of cooks and physicians in the court of the Wu Kingdom, and there are eight kinds of food in the array, four of which are poisonous and four are non-toxic." Yun Yao introduced: "The chefs and physicians who accept the selection must choose the food to eat, and if they don't die, they can enter the court, and if they die, they will be eliminated. ”

Danki said it was too bizarre: "There is no process of detoxification? Is it just to tell if food is poisonous or not? ”

"It's really just a matter of telling if food is poisonous or not."

"What kind of selection is this, so if you are lucky, won't you be able to fool around? Four of the eight bowls are food and four are poisons, and the chance of passing safely is half and half, and the real skills cannot be tested at all. Danki said that this selection method is not reliable at all, and there is a half chance that you can get by, and there is no need for any skills at all.

"That's true, but luck is also part of strength. Have you ever heard the story of Kuwatian Witch? Jin Jinggong was sick, and Sang Tianwu said that Jin Jinggong was very sick and could not see this year's new wheat. Jin Jinggong didn't believe it, and asked the doctor of Qin State to see a doctor, and he also got the answer that he was terminally ill. Later, when the wheat was harvested, Jin Jinggong asked people to cook new wheat, and when he ate the new wheat, he could kill Sangtian Wu with confidence, guess what happened in the end? ”

"Could it be that Sangtian Wu was killed? No, since luck is also strength, then Jin Jinggong must be sick and dead. "It's also the first time Danki has heard this story.

"This year's new wheat has been boiled in the kettle, but before eating, Jin Jinggong fell into the pit and drowned when he went to the toilet, and he really didn't eat the new wheat until he died." Yun Yao said solemnly: "This is the strength of the doctor." ”

"Poof." Dan Ji couldn't help but laugh, this story is too funny. In the end, Jin Jinggong did not die of illness, but fell into the pit and drowned, she said breathlessly: "Is this a doctor or a wizard?" It's not medical skills at all, it's blindness. ”

"Physicians do have a large part of the blindness. Doctor Qin Guo is more old-fashioned, just said that he was terminally ill, but did not say the specific time. Doctor Jin Guo was more bold and directly said a deadline, but in the end, he really didn't eat new wheat, so he was a little better than Doctor Qin. "So there is nothing wrong with Wu Guo's Eight Treasures Array, if you have strength, you can use your strength to distinguish between toxic and non-toxic, and if you don't have strength, you can blindly rely on luck to get by."

"Can you tell the poison then?"

"Of course, I'm a person who has been a Guan Zhong and Kong Qiu Cook, and distinguishing poisons is the basic skill of a chef, and to some extent it is even better than a doctor." Yun Yao said.

"Do you see any other arrangements? Have you seen the woman who rescued Qingji before leaving? ”

"I didn't see it, but I saw that there was another fat man in Qingji, if I guessed correctly, he should also be an assassin of the Wu Kingdom, Zhuzhu." Yun Yao said that it was really an alliance of assassins.

"It's the guy who stabbed Wu Wangyi with a fish intestine sword? That guy is not easy to deal with, I heard that he cultivates 'ten steps to kill one person', no one can dodge his sword within ten steps, it should be a divine will skill like 'five shots', it is said that even Xiao Meng is afraid of the stunt of 'ten steps to kill one person' and dare not go to Zhuanzhu. "The marksman's five shots are otherworldly skills, and he has mastered abilities similar to those of five shots, and can threaten immortals.

Yun Yao did feel that there was a strong divine will on Zhuan Zhu's body, which he had only seen in Cao Mo before, but Cao Mo's divine will was the meaning of the Heavenly Sword, and he was peaceful. But the divine intent of the dedication was steaming, which reminded Yun Yao of the murderous aura he encountered when he was studying "Mao Hand Fusang".

There is definitely a master behind the master, otherwise it is impossible for mortals to control this murderous aura.

"Zhuan Zhu and the friar who can use rainbow light must be together." Yun Yao guessed.

It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, and now I can only go out first and say, "Let's go, go and meet them." ”

The three male monks quickly noticed Yun Yao and Dan Ji, who were standing on the raised foundation of the national shrine and looking down on the two women.

At this time, it was already dusk, the clouds in the sky were burning like fire, and everyone's skin was reflected orange.

"Where's Shih Tzu?"

"Senior sister has a life, you have to pass through the Eight Treasures Array to be eligible to see her." Fat Fat said that sure enough, the assassin would not be recognized as a killer at a glance. Whether it's a fat Zhuzhu or a thin one, at first glance they don't look like killers, they all look like honest ordinary people, one looks like a fat chef, and the other looks like an old farmer. If Yun Yao hadn't been familiar with the history of the Wu Kingdom, he wouldn't have recognized them.

At this time, Qingji and Yao Li didn't even have the qualifications to speak, obviously completely controlled, and focused on specialization.

"I don't know which sect and which sect of Daoist friends it is? I am the god of flowers in the heavenly court, Yun Yao, the disciple of the overlord of Jiujiang, and I also ask Taoist friends to make it clear. "Since Zhuzhu is not a person from the Jingwei Alliance, then communicate in the way of a monk and ask the other party's identity first.

"I am a disciple of the Antarctic Immortal Weng, Zhuzhu."

Yun Yao sighed in her heart, and a series of things understood, why the Jingwei Alliance wanted to go to the West to build a country, and why such a powerful mysterious woman appeared in the mortal world.

Obviously, the Jingwei Alliance is going west to avoid trouble. Five hundred years have passed since the gods were sealed, and the management of various sects and sects is not as strict as before, and the disciples of the great immortals will also go out of the mountains one after another. As long as the Jingwei Alliance is not stupid, it knows that it has to keep a low profile now, and if it provokes the disciples of the Great Immortals, they don't even know how to die.

The appearance of the disciple of the Antarctic Immortal Weng in front of him made Yun Yao realize that it had been a long time since the Great War of the Gods, and the monks couldn't help but go out of the mountain one after another to move their muscles, so the evil organization of the Jingwei Alliance had to keep a low profile.

Yun Yao was unhappy in her heart, in the final analysis, she was still a bully, and the Jingwei Alliance would find trouble for herself again and again. When the Great Immortal disciples walked the Three Realms, they didn't even dare to breathe, and hurriedly hid to the west.

It's really unpleasant, the attitude of the Jingwei Alliance to judge the two of them is too annoying, it is simply discrimination against the red fruit land, and Yun Yao is not taken seriously.

There is no harm without comparison, and Yun Yao is very hurt now.

The Antarctic Immortal Weng is a powerful character, and he helped explain the teachings during the Great War of the Gods, although he appeared less, but he was very powerful.

"Since he is a disciple of Xianweng, why bully Xi Shi for a weak woman?" Yun Yao said: "Let's let her go, I will definitely come to thank her another day." ”

"Xi Shi is guilty of destroying the country in Wu, and she is not a weak woman." Again, Zhu Zhu didn't say that he had to kill Xi Shi, but said: "If you can see my senior sister through the Eight Treasures Array, you can go and talk to her yourself." ”

Yun Yao sighed and said, "Okay, I will meet you with this Eight Treasures Array." ”
