Although the Queen Mother had some doubts about Jiang Erlang coming to win the portrait of Banzi so late, she could still "understand" that it involved Ying's confusion and guarding.

Seemingly...... Erlang is indeed very loyal to Daqin.

As for the portrait of the winning half-child......

It's not something to be seen.

After the founding of the Great Qin, each generation of emperors had a picture scroll, and when they ascended the throne and birthday, they would paint a picture every one or two years.

The Queen Mother didn't think much about it, and said directly: "Okay, pass on the will of the palace and take two portraits of the ancestor Qin Wu Emperor when he was young." ”

"Yes!"

A palace maid immediately took the order and left.

And the Queen Mother looked at Jiang Erlang and said again: "This palace heard that Erlang's father has been released from the prison of the Criminal Department, but after you returned to Beijing, you still live in the palace of the Great Zhou Dynasty, why didn't you go to visit?" ”

Jiang Erlang was stunned for a moment, he had actually forgotten about this matter a long time ago.

What he meant was just to get people out with all his heart.

He really didn't think much about visiting or something, after all, he had to be called Dad.

However, since the Queen Mother mentioned it, he still replied: "Although the minister's father has been released, the minister cannot go to see him now." ”

"Oh? Why is that? The Queen Mother was a little surprised: "Erlang now has a knighthood, and besides, your father's matter has also been clarified, he has indeed been wronged, and the palace is also ready to give some grace to your father, so that he can better serve Daqin, why does Erlang say that he can't meet now?" ”

Jiang Erlang replied: "The queen mother's kindness to Erlang, Erlang must be grateful to him, but although the minister's father was judged to be wronged, he still did something wrong after all, if the minister goes to see him now, he will inevitably be discussed by the courtiers, saying that the minister's father can be released because of the queen mother's grace.

Therefore, the minister hopes that his father can do some practical things for Daqin, and at that time, the minister will meet him again, and the Manchu Dynasty will have nothing to say! ”

The Queen Mother obviously didn't expect that Jiang Erlang in front of her would have such a "delicate" mind, and she opened her mouth for a while, but she didn't know what to say.

And at this moment, two scrolls were sent in.

At this time, the Queen Mother put away the topic of Erlang's father and turned to the picture scroll of Ying Banzi: "Erlang, these two are the portraits of the ancestor Qin Wu Emperor when he was young. ”

"Well, the minister's hands are stained with blood, and I ask the palace ladies to unfold it on my behalf." Jiang Erlang did not immediately move forward, but stood still in place.

"Okay." When the Queen Mother heard this, she was more and more surprised by Jiang Erlang's "delicacy", and unconsciously, she liked it more and more in her heart.

……

Two palace maids unfolded the two scrolls.

Jiang Erlang took a closer look.

In an instant, his eyes widened.

Because, these two pictures of Ying Banzi when he was young made him feel more familiar.

He shouted in his heart...... I must have seen this man! But why can't I remember? It's a strange feeling.

The young man on the picture scroll has a fluttering demeanor and exquisite facial features.

Jiang Erlang can be sure that there are no such 'friends' in his life, but the temperament of the young man makes him feel very familiar.

What's the problem?

I'm thinking about it......

The Queen Mother's voice came again: "What is Erlang's guess?" ”

"This ......" Jiang Erlang hesitated for a moment, but still said: "The minister does have a bold guess, but the minister has not yet found the answer in these two picture scrolls. ”

"Oh? What answer is Jiro looking for? The Queen Mother became more and more confused.

The answer he was looking for was...... Emperor Wu of Qin stayed in the world to fight against the method of guarding his heart. ”

"A way to fight the glow and keep the heart?" The Queen Mother thought for a moment: "But, isn't this method already there?" Is it to regather hundreds of schools under the grass? ”

"Yes, this is indeed a good way, but it has been a long time since the hundred schools of thought have been gathered......," Jiang Erlang did not say later.

The Queen Mother naturally understood the meaning of Jiang Erlang's words.

It has indeed been a while since the hundred schools of thought gathered, but apart from the Buddhist dialectic, there is not much outstanding.

Of course, in a sense...... It can be regarded as effective.

For example, if it were not for Buddhism to participate in the debate, the siege of Xijing would not have been resolved.

But Baijia is not a 'Buddhist gate'!

If the purpose of the hundred schools of thought is to let the Buddha make a move? This logic is really a bit unreasonable.

After thinking about it, the Queen Mother asked again: "Does Erlang think that there are actually some special reasons why a hundred schools of thought are gathered under the Jixia, and there may be an answer on the picture scroll of the ancestor Qin Wudi?" ”

"The Queen Mother is wise and unparalleled, and the ministers are full of admiration!" Jiang Erlang glanced at the Queen Mother, this reading comprehension ability can indeed be regarded as a perfect score.

"Huh." The Queen Mother smiled: "Erlang is the real wise peerless, and he can actually think of finding the answer in the picture scroll of the ancestor Qin Wudi, which shows that Erlang is indeed attentive to the matter of guarding his heart." ”

"It's a pity that the minister hasn't been able to find the answer yet." Jiang Erlang sighed.

"Erlang doesn't have to be discouraged, let's look for it slowly, if there are any new clues, let's come to this palace again." The Queen Mother smiled and nodded at Jiang Erlang.

Jiang Erlang understood the meaning hidden in the Queen Mother's words, and immediately said respectfully: "Yes, the minister must find out the answer, it is getting late today, so the minister will not disturb the Queen Mother's rest." ”

"Well, Jiro go and rest early." The Queen Mother nodded.

Jiang Erlang was ready to leave.

But at this moment, there was a sudden thunderclap.

And then, a turquoise glow lit up outside the palace, which actually made the entire palace of Ganquan Palace dyed with a layer of green light veil.

The queen mother's body, which had already stood up, stopped, her phoenix eyes widened slightly, and she looked out of the door: "Outside, what's going on?" ”

"Da Da Da!"

Immediately, a guard walked in from the door: "Empress Dowager, I don't know what happened outside, but looking at the direction of the light, it seems to be the location of the Jixia School Palace." ”

Kinoshita Gakumiya?!

The Queen Mother was stunned for a moment, there are now hundreds of schools gathered in the Jixia School Palace, and there is a master watching, what can happen?

Jiang Erlang was also a little puzzled.

The green light lit up from the Jixia Academy, what was going on?

Got a youkai out?

Impossible!

Now the demon clans in the Western Regions have all withdrawn, and there is no such thing as a monster in this world that will shine with green light.

The treasure was born, and it was almost the same!

Wait a minute!

Treasure?!

Jiang Erlang suddenly thought of something...... Green light! Treasure? Could it be...... The last bronze man in the Falling Sword Lake?!

This seems to be the only reason that makes sense.

He remembers......

In the big stone statue in Huai'an County, when the bronze man was born, it caused the appearance of "blood massacre".

In a sense, bloodslaughter is a kind of 'regional creature', because a special kind of organism is condensed together to lead to the phenomenon of bloodslaughter.

But the bronze man in Luojian Lake should have another 'way of protection'.

It is impossible for all bronze people to be protected in the same way, otherwise, when the blood massacre in Huai'an County appears, it will not cause so much trouble.

Thinking of this, Jiang Erlang immediately decided: "Queen Mother, the minister is now in charge of the deputy head of the Night Investigation Division, and now there is something different in the Jixia School Palace, so the minister should go and check it out immediately!" ”

"Hmm." The Queen Mother naturally would not object: "Erlang has worked hard." ”

"Retire!"

Jiang Erlang withdrew from Ganquan Palace.

Then, he sent the signal directly.

Summoning the night inspectors of the night investigation division, they immediately gathered, and the location was the Jixia School Palace.

After all, when it comes to 'inquiry', the identity of the Night Investigation Division is the last fit.

Moreover, he had inadvertently obtained the Empress Dowager's instructions just now, so it was impossible for even the master to stop him from going.

……

The Great Zhou Palace.

Ji Ruxue, who was sitting in the pavilion, looked fiercely in the direction of the Jixia School Palace.

There, a turquoise light rises into the sky, illuminating the otherwise dark sky.

Although this kind of movement is not as different as the abnormal phase when the glowing heart descends, Ji Ruxue's eyes flashed brightly.

"Actually appeared?!"

The corners of her mouth raised slightly, and then she looked at Kuroko and Shirako and said, "I didn't expect it to appear at this time, Kuroko and Baizi, let's go." ”

Kuroko and Shirako nodded immediately.

……

Jiangfu.

Naturally, Jiang Yu'er also received the information.

He walked out of the mansion, got into the carriage, and headed towards the Jixia School Palace.

……

in the Royal Palace.

Luo Yu also changed into a costume and sneaked out of the palace.

……

As for Jiang Chaoge.

He was now chatting with Miriko over tea.

And beside him is the princess of the Southern Regions, Lina.

In the past few days, he took Lena back to the capital Xianyang, and arranged Lena to live in Daomen's residence.

At this time, Lena was already somewhat familiar with Wu Lingzi and others, and at the same time, she also had a strong interest in Jixia's dialectic, and had been listening to it for a few days.

"It's in the direction of Luojian Lake!" Lena spoke.

"Well, it really is." Wu Lingzi also nodded, and then looked at Jiang Chaoge: "Brother, should we take a look?" ”

After Jiang Chaoge thought about it, he replied, "Little sister, let's take Princess Lena first, and I'll come back later." ”

"Okay." Wu Lingzi glanced at Jiang Chaoge and didn't ask much, she was still very 'virtuous' and never probed too much into Jiang Chaoge's private affairs.

However, Lena didn't understand the rules and regulations: "Did you let me go with the fog path chief first because you wanted to prepare something you didn't want us to know?" ”

Jiang Chaoge: "......"

Seeing that Jiang Chaoge didn't reply, Wu Lingzi immediately took Lina's hand: "Brother is naturally in trouble, let's go first, I think the other senior brothers should also go over." ”

"Okay." Lena was pulled out by the misty spirit, and turned around and snorted at Jiang Chaoge.

Jiang Chaoge didn't care either.

Last time, because of the relationship between the master and the son, he didn't really dive to the bottom of Luojian Lake.

Now that it is possible that the bronze man was born!

Of course, he had to 'avoid' the crowd to see if he had a chance to take the last bronze man into his hands.

After all, he already has three bronze figures in his hands now.

If you get one more, it's four!

……

Jixia School Palace.

Buddha Gate Residence.

Fuxian opened his eyes violently: "Born!" ”

As soon as he started, Bao Zhi walked in with the empty phase.

"I've seen the Bodhisattva, the green light came from the Falling Sword Lake, I doubt ......"

"There is no doubt about it, the deity has already felt the breath! It should be the last bronze man! After Fuxian finished speaking, his eyes looked at the empty phase: "The empty phase." ”

"Yes." The void phase takes a step.

"We have already lost our hands once last time in Huai'an County, and this time we must get the last bronze figure, even if all the sons of the hundred families are here, can you understand?"

"Understood." The void phase replied immediately.

"Okay, let's go."

"Yes!"

The group went out and headed towards Luojian Lake.

……

And at the same time.

In the Mo family's residence, Mo Jian is also explaining to Mo Su.

"Although my Mo family has obtained a bronze figure, but there are a total of twelve bronze figures, if you can get another one, you will have the capital to 'negotiate' in the future, Mo Su you are the best genius in the young generation of my Mo family, this time our Mo family, we must not miss again."

"Yes, the disciple will do his best." Mo Su replied immediately.

"Still, be on the safe side." Mo Jian confessed again: "This time we are in the Jixia School Palace after all, and now not only the other hundred families are here, but even the Buddha Gate is here, so we still have to be careful!" ”

"Understood."

……

In an instant, the Jixia School Palace was lively.

The representatives and disciples of the hundred schools of thought rushed towards the direction of Luojian Lake.

Jiang Chaoge waited for Wu Lingzi and Lina to leave, and then naturally went out.

However, his first focus is not on Luojian Lake, but on the master.

He didn't go to the top of the book mountain, because the master would only be on it when he was arguing the Dharma, and the rest of the time, he was basically in his thatched hut.

Jiang Chaoge decided to meet the master first.

So, he went straight to the Master's hut.

After using the ability of the Sun Ranger, he arrived in front of the grass hut in less than a quarter of an hour.

And at this time, in front of the thatched hut......

It was silence.

"Aren't a few big Confucians there?"

Jiang Chaoge was a little surprised, because, according to his guess, there was something strange in Luojian Lake, and Fang Xiaojing and the others should come to see the master as soon as possible, right?

Just as he was thinking about it, the voice of the master sounded in the thatched hut.

"Fang Xiaojing and the others just left, I guessed that you would come, so I am waiting for you here."

"I see." Jiang Chaoge was relieved: "I came to ask the master, the current disappearance of Luojian Lake, but the disappearance of the last bronze man?" ”

"That's right." The Master replied.

"Meaning...... Has the hour come? Jiang Chaoge asked again.

The master did not directly answer Jiang Chaoge's question, but said: "This time is not very good, and the current Jixia is not under the control of the old man alone, if it is possible, I don't want the bronze man to come out now." ”

What does this mean...... Did the Master really not know the time when the bronze man appeared?

Jiang Chaoge nodded, and said again: "I met the witch god in the Southern Regions, and the Lena I brought is the ruler of the bronze people, but I don't know who the other bronze people are in now, does the master have any news?" ”
