Chapter 225: Dead Man's Carriage and Horse, Life-Saving Medicine
The restaurant is full. The two red-faced men were talking about the "convoy of dead men" they had met that night.
One of them, a stout bald man, spoke so much that he could talk endlessly.
"You know that, right?"
"We have some friendship with Dao Ye, and the house we live in here was built by Dao Ye with the help of others."
"Master Dao asked us to go and fight with the car that disturbed everyone's sleep, and we can't pretend that we didn't hear it!"
"On that night, let's gather dozens of men to surround the convoy!"
"Except for us, the rest are all people under the sword master, and they are all iron men who have shed blood and water!"
"But guess what?"
"After I really saw the convoy, except for us and Dao Ye, none of the pants were dry!"
“……”
Yu Chen turned his head and listened to the bald man's tone, as if he was among the people who saw the dead man's convoy that night.
So Yu Chen turned around, picked up his wine glass, and patted him on the shoulder, "Brother, which street did you say the convoy appeared on?" When was it? ”
This bald man is also a bold man, he was interrupted by Yu Chen, and he was not annoyed, and said happily: "It's on Hongya Street in the south of the city, when the time comes...... It should be the second watch in the middle of the night. ”
Then, the bald man raised his glass and touched it with Yu Chen, reminding: "This brother, if you want to say something from your heart, let's advise you not to be so unnecessarily curious - we just glanced at it, tsk...... That picture...... Anyway, we won't be able to eat a little meat for two days in a row. ”
Yu Chen thanked him, put down the money for the food and drinks on the table, and got up to leave.
- Although this world is already a different path for people and ghosts, and the two do not see each other, even if there are ghosts dancing in front of you, you will not see the slightest thing.
But probably because Jiangzhou was sprinkled with yellow spring water before, Guhe County, which is close to Jiangzhou, was probably also slightly affected by the aura of yin death, so that those ghostly ghosts could be found by the living.
And if what the bald man said was true, then they must have run into something unclean.
Listening to what he said, the dead man's convoy is afraid that it also has an attempted wish.
Anyway, Yu Chen originally planned to rest in Guhe County for one night, so he simply took the time to see what was going on with this netherworld convoy.
If there is really a wish of the deceased, then it is appropriate to do a favor and receive a reward.
Walking all the way on the streets of Guhe, Yu Chen came to Hongya Street in the south of the city, stayed in an inn, and waited for dark.
In the inn.
The stone sits cross-legged, the blood in the body is surging, the muscles and flesh are surging, and the treasure light is dense under the skin, hidden but not hairy, hidden deep inside.
——More than two months have passed since Yu Chen taught him the Fa.
It can only be said that the stone is worthy of being extremely talented in refining the body, and now it is "quenched" to perfection, the bone is like a truss, the skin is like gold and iron, the flesh is made of fire, crackling and burning, bursting out of a terrifying sense of power.
The consummation of "quenching" is equivalent to the consummation of "opening the sea" of the way of refining qi.
But Yu Chen, who looked at the stones all the way, preliminarily estimated that this big guy would already be able to fight with the alchemists of the Spirit Realm without falling behind.
- Just his terrifying physical defense, the magic skills of ordinary low-grade alchemists may not be able to help him.
"Sir, do you have anything on my face?" Stone opened his eyes and smiled.
"Nope." Yu Chen shook his head and asked instead: "Shi, you can be regarded as having achieved some cultivation at this time, if you continue to follow me in the future, I am afraid that you will inevitably have to fight with others—if you reach that time, do you think you can kill people?" ”
Although the stone was terrifyingly strong, Yu Chen knew that this big man hadn't even done anything with anyone except for beating the people of the Fuding Chamber of Commerce that night.
- This body type, this head, even if he didn't start refining his body, he could not afford it for ordinary people to go down at will, which is why his father had been restraining him before.
Shi scratched his head and said simply: "I don't, I haven't killed, but I can learn!" ”
Yu Chen nodded and said no more.
It was getting dark and night fast.
Yu Chen took the stone to eat at the inn, and waited in the room.
He deliberately asked for a room adjacent to the street, on the second floor, and when he opened the window, he could have an unobstructed view of Hongya Street in the south of the city.
Hongya Street in the south of the city is wider than other streets and alleys in Guhe County, for no other reason, just because the south gate of the city corresponds to the official road leading to the direction of the capital, and all caravans coming from that direction must pass through Hongya Street if they want to enter the city.
Therefore, it is natural to cultivate more widely.
In the middle of the night, there is a cool breeze.
In the streets and alleys, they are almost asleep.
This Qingzhou is already barren, and Guhe County is even more barren in the barren, so naturally it does not have the scenery of Jinling.
Coupled with the previous incident of the "dead man's convoy", the people nearby were panicked, so they naturally turned off the lights and fell asleep early.
In the middle of the night, the second watch.
On the bustling Hongya Street during the day, it is already silent.
Thundered!
A spring thunder exploded!
The spring rain is dripping and falling.
With the sound of rain hitting the bluestone road.
Da-da-da-da! Da-da-da-da!
The sound of horses' hooves, which was slightly hurried, sounded out of thin air.
Yu Chen raised his eyebrows, and knew that the so-called convoy of dead men was coming!
He pushed open the window and jumped down with the stone, falling to the ground.
In the distance, I saw the direction of the city, and the lights came in the rain.
When you get closer, take a look!
Hey!
Sure enough, it's exactly the same as the bald man said!
A team of carriages and horses, about 20 people, and three carriages pulling goods, pulled full of goods, slowly drove slowly.
It's just that these horses have broken hooves, broken bellies, and broken arrows stuck in their heads.
Bai Sensen's bone stubble walked on the bluestone ground, and the sound was crisp.
And in the carriage, there were about twenty men, and they were also like that.
The flesh and blood were blurred, full of arrows, missing arms and short legs, some even had their heads gone, their stomachs were cut open, and the mess of red and greasy things inside was hanging down, which was terrifying!
It stands to reason that with such an injury, he should have died eight hundred times a long time ago.
But they were unaware of it, driving on their own, and sometimes talking to each other.
At the same time, in Yu Chen's hands, the people were buzzing constantly.
Apparently the last wish of the deceased was felt.
Yu Chen stopped in front of the car, took out the Sutra of Death, released the golden light, and took all the cars and horses into the bank of the Huangquan River.
In the vast mist, the yellow spring is rolling and roaring.
The caravan of horses and carts was still unaware, but just moving forward, as if it would never stop.
Next to them, Yu Chen frowned.
Scenes of marquees, flickering in front of you.
Let's say that these more than 20 men, the person at the head is called Wolf Qing, and the Kaihai Perfection Qi Scholar is from the capital.
And the remaining twenty or so people are not simple characters, there are five Kaihai Refining Qi Masters in it, and the rest are all Innate Grandmasters.
- Not to mention anything else, just this lineup is enough to level Guhe County, which has only one Kaihai Refining Qi Warrior.
So the question is, what kind of goods is escorted with such a luxurious lineup?
And why did he die so tragically?
Yu Chen continued to look, and saw the answer from the next marquee.
This matter has nothing to do with Guhe, and it doesn't even have anything to do with Qingzhou, if you really want to trace the source, you have to talk about the capital at the foot of the Son of Heaven!
The current emperor has twelve children.
Among them, there are eight princes, three princesses, and one concubine.
And over the years, the crown prince has not been established, and several princes naturally have their own thoughts.
Everyone fought back and forth, fighting openly and secretly, showing their magical powers, and finally two princes stood out, the most princely.
One is the eldest prince Zhou Yu, and the second is the seventh prince Zhou Xiu.
As for the other princes, they either became kings early, went to the fiefdom, and lived a free life; Either it is unclear and died in which "accident".
Anyway, Zhou Yu and Zhou Xiu are left behind, and they are in full swing to win over the princes of the court, expand their power, and compete for the throne.
And as time passed, the fame and ability of the seventh prince Zhou Xiu have steadily overwhelmed his eldest brother and become the most likely candidate to compete for the crown prince.
But just when everyone is full of confidence in this Seven Highnesses Zhou Xiu, eh, guess what?
- Sick!
Zhou Xiu, the Seventh Highness, was ill a few months ago, it is said that there is a heart problem, once he is a little tired, he will have convulsions, foaming at the mouth, and he has to eat a lot of expensive medicinal materials every day to continue his life.
Such a change naturally gave him no chance to compete for the throne.
- You foam at the mouth and twitch when you are a little tired, so you have to be the emperor?
Probably because he knew that there was no hope of winning the heir, he asked for a reward at will, accepted the title of King Rende, and went to Youzhou, a barren state east of Qingzhou, to be the prince of leisure.
I heard that His Majesty originally planned to reward him with Quzhou, which was prosperous and close to the capital, as a fief, but for some reason, this Seventh Highness fell in love with that remote Youzhou, and he didn't leave when he went.
But although he is gone, his illness is not cured, and the medicinal materials for curing diseases are only available in the capital.
Therefore, every two months, a batch of medicinal materials must be sent from the capital to Youzhou to save his life.
The wolf green of this dead man's convoy is Zhou Xiu's subordinates, and the medicinal materials of this convoy are the life-saving medicine of His Royal Highness King Rende!
It's a pity that when Wolf Qing and his loyal subordinates passed through Qingzhou this time to transport medicinal materials, they were attacked by unknown dozens of miles outside Guhe County, and the whole army was wiped out, and all the medicinal materials were taken.
- If this is a general cargo, it will be gone if it is gone.
But Wolf Qing and those subordinates all know that this is His Highness's life-saving medicine!
How can you be robbed like this?
Die without turning a blind eye, leaving an attempted wish!
Even if he died, he was unwilling and uneasy, and wanted to send the life-saving medicine to His Royal Highness!
So, under such an obsession, the whole team of chariots and horses turned into ghostly ghosts, obviously dead without knowing it, and thought that they were transporting life-saving medicinal materials for His Highness.
This is the matter of the "Nether Convoy" that the people of Furukawa talk about.
In addition, Yu Chen also got a message in the marquee.
Zhou Xiu, the Seventh Highness, was one of the three mountains of Great Xia, the proud protégé of the dean of Shushan Jixia Academy.
Disciple of the Great Xia Wensheng!
