Xie Zheng wanted to say something more to her, but a column of cavalry suddenly broke into the palace gate and formed a charge formation towards the two of them.

This familiar armor and neat queue are not the Divine Iron Guards that Zhao Jin brought to Kunlun at the beginning?

Without waiting for Xie Zheng to speak, the cavalry led by him suddenly jumped off his horse, uncovered his helmet mask, and arched his hand towards Xie Zheng, with a high and excited voice: "Miss Xie? How could it be you?! ”

Xie Zheng was stunned, who is this person? How will you know her?

The blankness on her face was too obvious, and the iron guard hurriedly introduced herself: "Miss Xie, I am General Zhao's adjutant general, Nie Qiu!" ”

Xie Zheng scratched his head and laughed dryly: "Ah, it's General Nie." ”

Haha, no impression.

The female cultivator in Tsing Yi on the side saw that the Shence Iron Guard who came to support not only did not help her repel the foreign enemy, but recognized her in person, which made her angry.

"Nie Qiu, what are you doing?!"

When Nie Qiu heard this, he turned his head, smiled at her, and said, "Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding, this is Xie Zheng of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, not a villain." ”

After a pause, he seemed to suddenly remember something, and hurriedly asked, "Miss Xie, since you broke through Kunlun, they have said that you are missing, where have you been in the past three years?!" ”

Without waiting for Xie Zheng to come up with a suitable answer, Zhao Jin and Xu Lianjun, who were belated, crossed the palace gate together and landed firmly on the ground.

"What's going on?" Zhao Jin walked towards them, and when he saw the situation in front of him, he couldn't help frowning.

Seeing this, the female cultivator in Tsing Yi immediately replied: "General Zhao, these two people forcibly broke into the palace, and the crime is extremely heinous, Nie Qiu, as the deputy commander of the Shence Iron Guard, is actually in the same league with these two traitors!" ”

Xie Zheng: "......"

She spread her hands, a little helpless: "I really didn't break in, if I really broke in, she wouldn't be able to stop a hundred." ”

Zhao Jin thought to himself, he waved his hand, and said to the female cultivator: "Female official He, this place will be handed over to me, you can retreat first." ”

Seeing this, the female cultivator in Tsing Yi waited fiercely for Xie Zheng and the others to glance at, and angrily disappeared outside the palace wall with the Mo knife.

Zhao Jin turned his head and asked, "What happened?" Aren't you supposed to be outside watching the parade of floats? ”

Xie Zheng pointed in the direction of the palace and said, "There is a corpse smell, a very heavy corpse smell, much worse than the one in Tangtang City." ”

Zhao Jin was not a witness to the incident of the Soul Sacrifice Array in Tangtang City, but Xu Lianjun beside him was, hearing Xie Zheng's words, she was shocked, and her volume couldn't help but increase: "Could it be that there is another Soul Sacrifice Array?" ”

Zhao Jin was a little skeptical: "Could you smell it wrong?" In a place like the Imperial Palace, it is normal for several people to die every day. ”

Xie Zheng: "......"

"Tens of thousands of people have died in Tangtang City, and the smell of corpses is not as heavy as in this palace, think about it yourself."

Xu Lianjun must have believed Xie Zheng without hesitation, she immediately nodded: "Xie Zheng is right, let's go in and take a look, let's take a look at it, just take away our body shape, don't alarm mortals." ”

Seeing this, Zhao Jin did not refute again, but ordered Nie Qiu to guard the palace gate, and entered the palace gate with Xie Zheng and others.

The cultivation of the four people is not low, and it is really easy not to alarm the mortals in the palace.

Soon, they followed the direction pointed by Xie Zheng and came to the foot of a huge stargazing platform.

"This is a stargazing platform used by the palace for worship and blessings, and it is managed by the Ministry of Rites on weekdays, and it is not used several times a year."

Zhao Jin knew everything about this place and had never found anything abnormal, but Xu Lianjun was convinced of Xie Zheng, and he couldn't question anything, so he could only let them investigate.

Xie Zheng did not go to the stargazing platform, but circled around the root of the wall a few times, and finally found a fresh piece of soil that seemed to have been turned over.

Although the night was already dark at this moment, it did not affect their vision.

Xie Zheng pointed to the place and asked, "Has this observatory been used recently, or has it been renovated?" The traces of the dirt are still very new. ”

Seeing this, Zhao Jin was also stunned for a moment, although he didn't often enter the palace, he also knew that this observatory would be used for a fixed number of times every year, but it could not be ruled out that there were craftsmen who repaired it.

"I'm going to find someone from the Ministry of Works."

Do you need to go through such trouble?

Xie Zheng waved his hand, took out an iron sword from the mustard seed bag, controlled his strength, and gently swung out a sword, and the piece of soil was turned over in an instant.

The heavy smell of corpses came to his nose, Xie Zheng covered his mouth and nose and retched, and then was pulled back by Ciyin to stand a few steps, he took out a lotus-blue sachet from his sleeve and stuffed it into her hand, a faint bamboo fragrance wafted into the tip of his nose, and the suffocating stench dissipated a lot.

Turning over the soil, it was as if something had been knocked over, and now even Xu Lianjun and Zhao Jin smelled the almost suffocating stench.

"It really smells of corpses!" Zhao Jin's face was solemn, and he took off the sound transmission jade slip on his waist and sent a message to Nie Qiu.

In less than half a pillar of incense, the stargazing platform was tightly surrounded by the Shence Iron Guard, and no one could get close.

"Dig it all, dig it all out."

Xie Zheng was too sensitive to this special smell of corpses, she covered her mouth and nose, and stood a little farther away with Ciyin with a painful expression, watching them move.

When the moon was in the middle of the sky, Zhao Zhao and Bi Fang also came to the stargazing platform under the leadership of Yan Yushuang and several iron guards.

As soon as Zhao Zhao saw her, he rushed over: "Mother, what's wrong with you?" Why is your face so ugly? ”

Xie Zheng pointed to the stargazing platform in the distance and said, "There are a lot of corpses, they stink to death." ”

Zhao Zhao glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze indifferently, and stood side by side with her, without the slightest intention of going over to take a look.

Bi Fang felt a little surprised, so he asked, "Don't you want to take a look?" ”

Zhao Zhao shook his head: "My mother doesn't like the smell of corpses, so I won't go." ”

"Yo, it's only been a few days, how did you change sex? Don't you love to eat carrion? Hearing her words, Bi Fang immediately burst out laughing: "I heard that you were still fished out of the pool of blood and corpses by Xie Zheng at the beginning, is it true?" ”

Zhao Zhao stared straight ahead, ignoring his teasing and joking.

Xie Zheng glanced at Bi Fang and signaled him to stop, then he touched the tip of his nose and smiled and swept to the foot of the stargazing platform.

"Zhaozhao, what are you cultivating now?"

After a trip to the Nine Shadows, Zhao Zhao didn't know how much Netherworld Qi she had devoured, and she couldn't see what kind of cultivation it was now.

When Zhao Zhao heard this, he thought seriously for a while before he replied tentatively: "I maybe, a little more powerful than my mother?" ”

Xie Zheng: "......"

"Just a little?"

Zhao Zhao thought for a while, raised his hand, and pinched a small gap between his thumb and index finger: "A little more?" ”

After a pause, she was a little helpless: "Mother, I don't know, I won't break through like a human cultivator, I don't know what kind of cultivation it is." ”
