On the third day, Su Hanshan decided to start trying to break through.

The secrets he found in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the speed of comprehension and experience, was much faster than when he was in Fuyao Mountain.

For him, the process of understanding these secrets is like putting together a vast landscape painting with a large pile of puzzle pieces.

When I first came into contact with the secret of Fuyao Mountain, it was difficult to find a suitable place to put the puzzle pieces in my hand.

However, when some of the pieces have already been put together, it is much easier to fill in the remaining pieces into the appropriate gaps.

But he is still not sure how long it will take him to break through this time.

If the quenching effect of ordinary people breaking through the ladder and completing the tail vertebrae in one go, it can be compared to smelting steel from waste mines.

Then, the first quenching completed by Su Hanshan is equivalent to melting gold from the stone, and after the success, it is the difference between cloud and mud, and the difficulty is naturally not the same.

Once a small part of the tail vertebra becomes "gold", the rest of the entire bone must also complete this transformation, and only then can it firmly step into the realm of the ladder.

On this day, Su Hanshan walked out of the small building, ate, drank, and slept soundly, and took a few pills specially prepared by Zhang Shuwei to replenish blood and fill hunger, and his body and mind were full, clean and peaceful, and he returned to the secret room to sit and lock himself in it directly.

Except for himself and Zhang Shuwei, no one knew that he was ready to break through.

There is caution in doing big things in small things, and there is calmness in doing big things as small things, this is not the concentration that martial arts cultivation can bring, but more of a kind of mental refinement.

Many martial arts masters in the world actually don't have the state of mind of a grandmaster, and Su Hanshan also experienced the battle of Feilai Peak, and gradually grasped the charm that suits him.

There was no light in the chamber, the dark compartments had been put away, and the inlaid pearls were hidden in the mechanism.

When Su Hanshan began to exercise, he became the only light source here, and there was a faint white light all over his body, between his hair and eyebrows.

There are a thousand subtle differences in the aura that are awakened from various parts of the body, each showing their strengths and also grasping their weaknesses.

Su Hanshan is like a real commander of soldiers and horses, first harmonizing these breaths, controlling the strong and attacking the weak, stifling the shortcomings, and complementing and merging.

Until the thousand breaths were uniformly adjusted, the luster of his whole body suddenly converged, and it seemed to be collapsing and condensing endlessly towards the point of the tail vertebrae in his body.

Thousands of breaths in the extreme realm, a total of the ladder of heaven!

Su Hanshan seemed to clearly see that at the end of his tail vertebrae, a golden point of light was born, which was bright and bright, strong and not bad.

At the beginning of this breakthrough, he ascended into a wonderful state, and on the one hand, he was obviously engrossed, integrating all his mental strength into the internal force, circulating repeatedly, starting from that golden point of light, expanding the scope of refining.

On the other hand, he seems to have a lot of energy out of thin air, perceiving the situation in the outside world on his own, and feeding back into his state of mind.

He could hear the sound of Uncle Zhang pacing slightly nervously above the secret room, in the small building, gradually calmly flipping books, drinking tea and eating, and he could hear the wind outside the building, bamboo leaves, and insects.

He could hear the people of Fuyao Mountain working hard to repair the mechanism, and Chen Weiyang commanding everyone to train and cooperate and the formation to operate.

He could also hear the roaring fire and the burning of charcoal in the Dan room.

Charcoal fire and Dan furnace, in fact, there is no need to prepare specially, because Shi Miyuan's manor already has a collection.

In this special Dan room, the zenith hole is ventilated to guide away the smoke, and the people outside cannot see the scene inside at all.

Only Li Qiumian stayed inside alone, only taking Zhang Shuwei's Bigu pills every day, and there was no need to deliver food, and Situ Zhongxia personally carried the medicinal materials, cleaned the ashes, and transported charcoal.

Those far and near, loud and slight, all the movements seemed to be received by Su Hanshan's senses, but they did not linger, falling into the Pinghu-like state of mind, as fine as dust, precipitating.

He was clearly in the underground secret room, concentrating on his exercises and refining the tail vertebrae, but because of this inexplicable induction, he knew the changes of the sun and rain in the outside world, and the change of day and night.

Day 4, Day 5, Day 6.

Su Hanshan still didn't come out.

Uncle Zhang became more and more anxious, and couldn't calm down to compare the secret record of the Prime Minister's Mansion with Meng Zhaoxuan's condition, and spent most of the day pacing in the small building.

He was not only anxious because of Su Hanshan's state, but also because of the alchemy.

To be able to deceive others, of course, there must be the real thing in it.

Although the effect of the life-protecting golden pill is not so exaggerated, and the origin is not so magical, there is no need for a grandmaster to use his own skills to assist in controlling fire for seven days and seven nights.

But it is really a treasure pill, and the pill prescription is extremely complicated, and many rare medicinal materials need to be used.

Even with Zhang Shuwei's knowledge, just looking at that prescription, he can't figure out the true effect of this elixir.

However, because several of these medicinal materials are too conspicuous, such as mica chalcedony in the deep mountains and fossils of ancient sea beasts, these medicines do need to be baked in a high-temperature environment for about seven days if they want to give full play to their medicinal properties.

According to the effectiveness of these medicinal materials, Zhang Shuwei can also roughly deduce the time of Dancheng.

Many of those medicinal materials were brought from the treasury of the imperial palace after they were reported to the emperor, but anyone who had a snack was estimated to be able to inquire about it and make similar inferences.

And it can also rely on the intensity and color of the smoke wafting out of the Dan room to make a more accurate judgment.

On the evening of the sixth day, the moonlight was so bright that the shadows of people could clearly shine on the ground.

Even in the middle of the night, people with ordinary eyesight can continue to distinguish the smoke rising from the manor, let alone a master of the Grandmaster realm.

Dong Songchen placed a fragrant tea stove and melon and fruit cakes on the top of the castle tower in the palace, and drank with Jia Yidao, both of whom looked in the direction of the manor.

"Seven days and seven nights, it should be just a false finger, but in fact, in the early morning of the seventh day, this Dan should have become."

Dong Songchen picked up the teacup, plucked the tea leaves, took a sip, and exhaled the heat, "That's what happened tonight." ”

Jia Rudao looked over there, tapped the corner of the table with his fingertips, and said: "It is not easy to attack that manor, they have to leave some room for themselves, maybe within this hour, it is time to do it." ”

He suddenly smiled, "In tonight's turmoil, Kuanggu Hall will definitely be one of them, maybe in terms of numbers, the party with the most is not sure whether our Master Zhao will be the first to do it, or the last batch to do it." ”

Dong Songchen smiled and was about to speak, when suddenly the corner of his eye moved, and his face twisted to the other side, revealing a look of surprise.

Between the streets about five miles away from Miyagi, there seemed to be an abnormal flickering fire just now.

On a restaurant on the east side of the manor, Chief Zihai also mentioned the issue of the order of hands.

"After that friend's men sent a signal in the manor, if any of them can't hold their breath and attack the manor first, then we can wait a little longer and let the group in front of us go to the trap."

Shi Tianze said, "Otherwise, we should immediately lead people to attack." ”

"After all, after the group of people inside is exposed, let alone facing a grandmaster, a Su Hanshan who can fight and kill grandmasters, plus first-class masters such as Situ Zhongxia, Deng Guangming, Chen Weiyang, etc., if it drags on for a long time, the pill is still successfully refined, and it falls into the hands of Meng Zhaoxuan, things will become much more troublesome."

Daoist Zihai nodded and said: "We have mobilized more than seven hundred people, although they are all selected from the outer thirteen halls, they are not as capable as the inner five halls, they are also well-trained, and they are all people who are not afraid of death, and they are all well arranged around, as soon as our side signals it, they will immediately attack the manor." ”

Shi Tianze was slightly satisfied.

Zhao Lizong didn't say much, and his eyes noticed another direction: "Why is there smoke over there?" ”

Zihai Daoist hurriedly took two steps forward and looked at the railing: "It's the direction of the General's Mansion." ”

"Which general, Meng Zhaoxuan?"

Shi Tianze was surprised, "There won't be any other fools, so I haven't asked where Meng Zhaoxuan is staying until now, so I just started it, right?" ”

"Maybe it's because the enemy doesn't dare to face Meng Zhaoxuan directly, and take this opportunity to burn his mansion to vent his anger."

The purple sea chief replied with a smile, but saw that the smoke in the distance was getting thicker and thicker, and the black smoke rolled up, accumulating like a cloud, and the firelight was reflected under the black smoke, making the lower part of the smoke show a dark red luster.

A large number of people in the city were already alarmed, and some people ran out to look, and soon they were so frightened that they returned to their houses, closing their doors and windows.

For they heard the sound of the house collapsing, and heard the shouts of fighting, and the horses galloping through the streets, and the wagons overturning, and the neighing of the horses.

"That's not right!"

Zihaidao's face changed greatly, "Next to the General's Mansion, there is the mansion of Zuo Xiang Fan Zhong, the Secretary of the Ministry of War, the Secretary of the Criminal Department, the Secretary of the Ministry of Industry and others, this kind of fire is by no means just burning a mansion, they are not going to the General's Mansion." ”

At this point, there is no need for him to explain anything.

On the street not far away, a large number of people were already running and fleeing.

Judging by their skills and clothes, they are not ordinary people, they should be the guards in the mansion of Fan Zhong and others, protecting them from evacuation.

There were also a large number of people in civilian costumes who divided into multiple squads and pursued them behind, and from time to time they rushed out from between the nearby streets to intercept and ambush.

The team of Fan Zhong and others twisted and turned, rushing between the streets, the water, and the rooftops.

But in the eyes of the people in a higher place, it can be clearly seen that these people are approaching the manor at a high speed.

Zhao Lizong glanced at Shi Tianze beside him, and said in a deep voice: "The plan to drive the people and break the city!" ”

When the army attacked the city, it drove a group of people to the city and induced the defenders to open the city gate to receive it, but among the people, they were actually mixed with spies, who would create chaos and delay time after the guards opened the door, so that the army behind them would seek an opportunity to cover up.

This was originally a method that the Mongols were accustomed to, but Tachar, Shi Tianze and others were not prepared to play this hand in Lin'an City.

The Mongols they brought were not enough, and even if they tried to do this with the power of Kuanggutang, the comparison of numbers was far from up to standard, and it was difficult to guarantee in which direction the people who were driven would flee.

After all, this place is the imperial city of the Southern Song Dynasty, and in the bustling city, there are too many buildings, streets, alleys, waterways and ditches, and there are too many opportunities to escape.

Moreover, Zuo Xiang Fan Zhong, the defense force around him is not low, and his residence is very close to the palace, even if the Prime Minister's Mansion is breached, these people can rush to the palace as soon as possible, join the forbidden army, and get a response.

Whether it is Fan Zhong himself or Qiao Feidu and the others, they are not fools, and it is impossible for them to take the initiative to go to the direction of the manor in the current situation.

But, they did come!

Then there is only one possibility.

The group of people who attacked Zuo Xiangfu's mansion calculated all the changes in the surrounding routes, and even pinched the mentality of Fan Zhong and others.

Let the locals of Zuo Xiangfu, who have not even figured it out, have been unconsciously led to the direction of the manor by various means of attack, lure, and shock.

The Purple Sea Daoist said in a lost voice: "Will there be outsiders who can do such a thing in Lin'an?!" ”

"First of all, they must have an absolute master, who can make the guards of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion lose their mentality and block the way to the palace for help for a while."

Shi Tianze's expression was gloomy, and he said slowly, "In addition, this person's level of commanding street battles should be high enough, higher than me in this aspect, even higher than King Zong, and higher than Meng Zhaoxuan." ”

As he said this, he exuded an astonishing ferocity, and the hairs on his face seemed to become heavier and darker, while his eyes became brighter and more intense, and filled with anger.

Many of the people in the vicinity of Kuang Gu Tang inexplicably felt that a huge beast was sharpening its claws around them, making them can't help but look around, overly alert, and very uneasy.

Zhao Lizong turned his head to look: "Mo Fei, you have already guessed who is the leader on the other side?" ”

Shi Tianze didn't answer, but a low chuckle came from Tachar's black coffin.

"It seems that some old friends are like me, saying dead, but they are not dead."

There was a bit of nostalgia in Tachar's tone, and he said, "I am afraid that there is only one person who can reach this level in street fighting in the past hundred years. ”

"The ...... of the Golden Country Wuheng Mountain! ”

Hengshan Gong Wu Xian, surnamed Wu Ming Xian, shows the expectations of his family for him.

He doesn't seem to live up to this name, not only in the prime of life, but also in martial arts.

Moreover, in the last twenty years of the war between the Jin State and Mongolia, he was the head of the nine princes who were entitled.

This person was not originally an official of the Jin State, but a local hero, when the Mongols attacked the Jin State, he organized local armed forces, guarded one side, and was directly named the assassin history.

Because his methods of commanding street battles were so clever that he relied on the people under his command to deal with the Western Route army of the Mongols at that time for four years, and then due to internal rebellion and lack of reinforcements, he surrendered to Mongolia in Zhending.

The Great Khan of Mongolia also valued his martial prowess and military strategy, and was overjoyed at his surrender, and it was not long before he promoted him to the rank of deputy commander of the Western Route Army.

However, Wu Xian was reluctant to give up on the glory of the Jin State and was loyal, and after becoming this deputy marshal, he found an opportunity to kill Shi Tianni, the commander of the Western Route Army, and the generals.

Shi Tianze is Shi Tianni's younger brother, who was also in the army at that time, fled for his life, led reinforcements to attack and came back, and broke through the realm of grandmasters.

Wu Xian was injured by Shi Tianni and others because of his deathly counterattack, and he did not fight for a long time, but retreated, but caused the surrounding large areas that had been captured by the Mongols to fall back into a scorching and unstable situation.

Later, Wuxian was rewarded, and he fought for the Jin State, and successively fought with the Mongolian Marshal Tachar, and even the pro-army of the Mongolian Great Khan, feeling that Mongolia was strong and the Southern Song Dynasty was weak, and suggested to the Jin Emperor to seize the land of Bashu in the Southern Song Dynasty as a back road.

At that time, Meng Zhaoxuan returned to his hometown to guard filial piety because of the death of his closest relatives and elders, and the most elite 30,000 loyal and obedient troops under his command remained on the border of Bashu and were in charge by his henchmen.

Wu Xian led people to go deep into the territory of these 30,000 strong soldiers who had been operating all the year round, and they were defeated between the cities and villages, and after Meng Zhaoxuan rushed back, it took a lot of effort to clean up the situation and regroup.

At the time of the fall of the Jin Kingdom, Wuxian's soldiers and horses of the Nine Towns were severely defeated by Meng Zhaoxuan, and were surrounded by the Mongol army.

But now it seems that he certainly faked his death and got out.

Fan Zhong and the others had already come to a small river while fleeing, and when they looked up, they found that on the other side of the river bank was a unique and luxurious manor.

"Shi Miyuan's mansion, how could it be ?!!?"

Qiao Feidu, who commanded the guards of each family, his face changed several times, and his expression was difficult to see.

He actually arrived here and found out the other party's purpose.

"Shi Miyuan's manor, isn't Marshal Meng's large number of men inside?"

The Ministry of Works, who was scattered in his cloak, showed a look of surprise and shouted at the manor, urging the people inside to come out and save them.

He had even taken the lead in leading his own family guards, wading through the water, crossing the river, shouting as he ran.

Fan Zhong stretched out his hand, but he couldn't say anything to stop him, and he was full of sorrow.

"Let's go!"

Qiao Feidu said categorically, "The matter has come to this point, it's useless to think about it, Xiangye, you should withdraw into the manor as soon as possible." ”

He pushed Fan Zhong on the back and sent him across the river, laughed loudly, shook off the folding fan, and all the fan bones shot backwards, leading a group of guards to counterattack the pursuers.

Upstairs in the palace city, Dong Songchen stood up.

"Daring, daring!!"

The air around Dong Songchen shook, dull as thunder, the wall bricks under his feet cracked, and he was furious, "It's not enough to assassinate military generals, but you dare to hunt down and kill so many important ministers of the imperial court at once, and create such a big mess in my Great Song Imperial City, it really puts our faces in the mud puddle and tramples on it!" ”

Jia Rudao stretched out his hand to stop: "Wait!" ”

"Dong Gong, even if we want to do it, we don't have to worry, Zuo Zheng is already old, and those people under him are all his diehards, even if they die, are we still worried that we have no one here to fill in?"

Jia Rudao revealed a great temptation and ambition in a few words, and he always felt that he was a talented person.

Yes, although he is already on the rise, this position is far from enough.

He also has lofty ambitions, and he also wants to make a career for the country and the people while enjoying luxury and pleasure, and his name will go down in history and be remembered through the ages.

Now he is not powerful enough, so he can't take care of it, he can only enjoy it first, but he often plans some merits for the country in his heart, and he has indeed made merits in the local area.

If he is allowed to sit in the position of prime minister as soon as possible, and all the books are his own people, he will be sure that he will have the best of both worlds!

Jia Rudao's eyes flashed with strange expectation, "When they fight to the end, let's take another shot and wipe out all these foreign thieves, which is enough to save face, besides, in the future, it is not necessary to tell the truth about the cause of death, keep it secret, and put the news of death or resignation every once in a while, why not?" ”

Dong Songchen's eyebrows furrowed, revealing hesitation.

In the distance, inside the manor, the wooden door of the attic creaked and opened quickly.

Meng Zhaoxuan stepped into the attic, his face was still sick, his lips were already black, but he pulled the chains.

"Xiao Chen!!"

His voice did not hesitate, "Let go of the door, bring Fan Lao and the others in, and lead them to other places to settle." ”

"Please ask the Divine Monk, the Imperial Uncle, and the Lord of the Shen Pavilion to quickly contain the pursuers and gain time."

Chen Weiyang was stunned: "Let them all go?" ”

Meng Zhaoxuan said indifferently: "Go!" ”

Chen Weiyang immediately passed through the sound transmission channel and notified several masters guarding near the Danfang.

Chen Shouzhi and the others all knew that they were definitely inferior to Meng Zhaoxuan's team in the art of war, and after receiving the order, although they had doubts, they were not slow.

The two great grandmasters and their entourage, as well as the men of the East China Sea Sky Meng Pavilion, all flew over the courtyard walls and swept straight out.

"Good chance!"

Shi Tianze saw the changes in the organs of the entire manor from a high place, faintly saw the formation of the situation, and saw these masters leaving, the light in his eyes skyrocketed, and he stepped on it.

Rumble!!!

The whole restaurant shook suddenly, and a large piece of the floor between the corridors above shattered, and the huge and heavy building leaned back for several minutes.

Shi Tianze's figure, like a black meteorite, shot into the manor.

Zhao Lizong fluttered and moved in the air, not much slower.

The people of Zihaidao gave a signal, and the people in the ambush of Kuanggutang all killed the manor.

The purple fireworks blooming in the night sky were reflected in a pair of indifferent eyes.

Wu Hengshan stood at the end of the long street with his hands in his hands, and the moonlight swept over his body, casting a huge shadow.

His eyes encompassed the fighting on the bank of the river, and the people who flew out of the manor actually glanced at the Miyagi in the distance at the same time, and even noticed the movement in the restaurant, and recognized Shi Tianze's familiar face.

"Sure enough, there are people from Mongolia!"

His tone was flat, he planned and then moved, leisurely teaching the red-robed young man around him.

"Young master, the praying mantis catches cicadas, and the yellow finch is behind, but the person who strikes first like us may not be the praying mantis."

In the small building where the books were collected, Zhang Shuwei also took all the silver needles and swept out, wanting to find an opportunity to contribute to his combat power.

Under the small building, where no one could see, the young man who had been sitting quietly for several days and nights slowly floated, three feet above the ground, suspended in the air.

There do not seem to be significant fluctuations in the air currents, not by means of wind control.

But Su Hanshan's figure floating in mid-air was very stable, and all the dust on the surface of his robe disappeared in an instant, as clean as new.
