Chapter 182: "Holy Snake" and "Snake Bell"

Gannan Road, in the middle of the desert.

"My lord, it was the golden tower and the two monsters that I encountered in this desert at that time, but now...... It's like there's nothing left."

Li Yuanfang, who transformed into Ultraman Tiga and flew to the desert of Gannan Province with Di Renjie, showed him the location at that time, but now he only saw yellow sand, not to mention any golden tower, not even a large stone.

"In the middle of the desert, the terrain is unpredictable. It's not surprising that these sand dunes are blown by the wind and change their appearance in the blink of an eye."

"That's why those who walk in the desert often need to follow the marks left by their predecessors, and they are actually a little lost at that time."

Di Renjie is knowledgeable, and Li Yuanfang has been at the border for a long time, but he chatted very smoothly.

"Is the location of the attack on the mission far from here?"

"It's about a hundred miles away. Because he has always been wanted, he does not dare to go far."

"What was the situation when you fought those two monsters? Is it difficult?"

"Hmm...... The earth dragon walking on the ground moved slowly, and although he was wearing iron armor, he was also injured a lot under the immortal spell. Just as he was about to kill him, the flying monster suddenly came out to disrupt the situation, and he fell into a bitter battle."

"Oh, that's right." Di Renjie nodded, and suddenly asked, "By the way, you said that you killed the monster that could only fly in the sky at that time, and then you lost your strength and fell into Lingzhou City. Will there be any wreckage left of that monster?"

Li Yuanfang was stunned, he hadn't paid attention to this.

"Perhaps...... Yes? The lowly was flying in the air, and with his hand he emitted the light of a flying sword, shattering the monster and turning it into powder. If there are a few pieces that have fallen and not been broken...... It also makes sense."

Di Renjie said, "Okay, let's go to the vicinity of Lingzhou City to investigate immediately."

The two of them explored the villages near Lingzhou twice, and although they didn't hear of anything like "demon beast meat falling from the sky", they heard that a few days ago, there had been several small ground movements in this vicinity. The intensity was not violent, so it didn't cause much damage.

However, the earth seems to be a little different from the usual, not spreading from one point to the surrounding water waves, but from one point to another, it forms a line and goes northeast.

"In this way, this so-called 'earth movement' is probably the earth dragon you injured at that time, named Gorzan, because you chased the flying monster Melba, so you escaped underground and fled for your life to the northeast. When its huge wolf-scandium body moved underground, it caused a series of ground movements from southwest to northeast."

On the evening of the same day, Di Renjie and Li Yuanfang were in the inn and analyzed the information obtained from this investigation.

"Yes, it makes perfect sense to think like this, and your lord is really a god!"

Li Yuanfang thought about it carefully, it seemed to be such a reason, and couldn't help but say with admiration, "Then let's chase in the northeast direction now and kill this monster!"

Di Renjie shook his head and said, "The whereabouts of the monster are unknown at the moment, how big the northeast direction is, you can only maintain half a tea time when you transform into an immortal, and it is too late to come up. What's more, I always have a faint feeling that Youzhou is also in the northeast, and the envoys were killed, the county lord was killed, the people in the earth kiln were robbed, and the whereabouts of the monster Gorzan all pointed to Youzhou, and that is where we got the answer."

So, Li Yuanfang once again took advantage of the night to transform into Diga, incarnated into Di Renjie's special passenger plane, and returned to Chang'an again, hiding in the Daoyuanjue Temple, preparing to meet Wu Zetian tomorrow.

The next day, Wu Zetian really came to the back hall alone under the guidance of the abbot and met Di Renjie. She was naturally pleasantly surprised when she saw Di Renjie, who was "supposed to be dead", and the two of them talked about the old days, and Di Renjie talked about the case, but he only hid the fact that Li Yuanfang could transform into Ultraman Tiga, and the monsters Gorzan and Melba appeared in Gannan Province.

He knew that Wu Zetian believed in ghosts and gods the most, and if she knew about it, Li Yuanfang would definitely not be able to live in peace, so it was better to hide it for the time being.

As the so-called Zi Bu is silent, believe it or not is one thing, saying something like this kind of strange power and chaos will inevitably cause chaos in the court and even the world, so Di Renjie chose not to mention it.

Wu Zetian was shocked when he heard Di Renjie's analysis, and when he was asked about the identity of the person in the earthen kiln, although he hesitated for a moment, he still told the truth.

The man in the kiln was named Liu Jin, and he had served as a staff member under King Yue. At that time, the king of Yue rebelled, and under the pretext of enjoying the flowers, he summoned a large number of officials to go, and when they arrived, he told the rebellion. These summoned bureaucrats were tied to this anti-military chariot by him, and it was difficult to ride a tiger.

When Li Zhen, the king of Yue, failed in the anti-military uprising and his subordinates scattered, the list of people who attended the meeting at that time was obtained by Liu Jin, a staff member. Liu Jin took this list to make trouble everywhere and forced the characters above to oppose the armed forces. If that person was unwilling to participate, Liu Jin directly called him an "anti-martial and anti-party" and told Wu Zetian. forced these people to die, and if they don't, they will die, so they have to obey him.

Until three years ago, Liu Jin was arrested in Youzhou, Wu Zetian went through several tosses and turns, and found a substitute ghost to kill as Liu Jin, but the real body was imprisoned in the earth kiln by Wu Zetian, and Qianniuwei was ordered to interrogate the list, but there was no result.

A few days ago, the earthen kiln caught fire, and Liu Jin was robbed.

Di Renjie noticed Youzhou, and asked Wu Zetian to go to Youzhou to investigate the case, and promised to solve it within three months. Wu Zetian naturally agreed, and sealed him as an official, exempted Li Yuanfang from a wanted warrant, and sent them to Youzhou.

Of course, on the bright side, Wu Zetian's external announcement was to let Di Renjie go to Taiyuan, the northern capital, to confuse the possible inner female cadres in the court.

Di Renjie originally wanted to travel lightly with Li Yuanfang, so he went to Youzhou Weifu for a private visit first, but he didn't want Wu Zetian to send another Qianniu Wei Zhonglang general Hu Jinghui to follow them.

This is protection, and the other is surveillance. Di Renjie knew it in his heart and didn't refuse, but Li Yuanfang couldn't turn into Diga and fly him directly to Youzhou.

For a while, he didn't take the Tiga plane, Di Renjie really wanted to.

………………

Youzhou, in the middle of a deep mountain.

"Rubbish, all rubbish! You can't even deal with a stinky old man and a badly injured wretch, so what's the use of you?"

Jin Mulan, who was wearing armor, was behind the curtain, angrily scolding the subordinates in front of her.

"Master Mingjian, that Li Yuanfang's martial arts are superb, and we have folded a lot of manpower. Behind in the tent, I really didn't find their shadows......

"Hmph, forget it, I'll get around you for the time being. The flying pigeon passed the book that Di Renjie is coming to Youzhou, our time is very tight, how are we prepared?"

"Back to the master, it is expected that it will take 20 days to build weapons, and the brothers who gathered the people have not yet replied."

"Well, I see, it's all trivial. Let me ask you, what happened to the "holy serpent" in the mountain? Does the "Snake Bell" still work?"
