Chapter 168: Searching for the Book of Confucianism
In the depths of the heavily closed General's Mansion, Yang Ji finally saw Yi Xiantian.
A large curtain as heavy as fog and yarn hung down from the roof, and behind the curtain was a huge screen of flowers and birds with a black background, and it was not clear behind the screen, judging from the exposed corner, it should be a bed.
Yang Ji had seen it once, and the 'white-clothed beauty' who was so powerful that even the deputy sect leader of the Tianyin Sect could compete with her face stood to the side expressionlessly, motionless.
However, what Yang Ji noticed at first glance was not the mysterious "beauty in white", but the demonic aura that soared behind the screen.
The warrior's masculine aura and the astonishing demonic aura were mixed together, turning into a turbid torrent that swayed and overflowed the room.
"Wang Xian didn't lie, General Langya really has demon blood. β
Yang Ji said secretly in his heart.
He understood at a glance that Yi Xiantian must have suppressed the demonic energy on his body behind the screen, but obviously, this was not as easy as he imagined.
"Subordinate Yang Ji has seen the general. β
Yang Ji took a step forward, bowed slightly, and said in a low voice.
There was silence behind the screen, and after a moment, finally a voice came, with a heavy cough:
"Ahem...... , Yang Ji, aren't you afraid of me?"
Yang Ji was stunned and said, "I don't know what the general means......"
"You've probably heard a lot of rumors about me along the way. β
Yi Xiantian said directly, and the sound of panting sounded like a serious injury that had not healed.
Yang Ji was slightly stunned, and then understood.
"My subordinates don't know any rumors, they only know that if it weren't for the general, I'm afraid we would be wiped out. β
Yang Ji said lightly.
There was a laugh from behind the screen, but the mood seemed to be much lighter.
"I'm sure you already know. The newly appointed "General Langya" in Zhoufu will arrive today, and I will leave here soon. You have done a great job for the court in this operation, but I am afraid it will be difficult for me to reward you. β
Yi Xiantian's voice came intermittently from behind the screen.
Yang Ji listened. I was filled with emotion. Immediately understood the reason why Yi Xiantian summoned him. Yi Xiantian's failure this time was lost, and thousands of elites of the imperial court died, and even General Wen Luan and General Qingchuan were killed, which was a huge mistake. Resignation is a foregone conclusion.
And now. General Hirano and General Tailing have also taken over Langya County, emptying his power. It can be said that Yi Xiantian already has a name only. It has been impossible to issue any valid orders.
β...... But don't worry. β
Yi Xiantian continued:
"The court will be rewarded for meritorious service, and punished for mistakes. You defeated the 'evil spirits' of the Tianyin Sect and made great contributions, although others did not know about it. But at least I know. β
"Although I can't give you a reward on behalf of the imperial court now, the people of the Yi clan will do what they say, and I will give you a proper reward before officially leaving. β
Yang Ji did not speak. His eyes flickered, and thoughts flashed through his mind. The failure of this operation, no matter who it is, even if it has great credit. With the arrival of a new powerful "General Langya", it will be canceled out.
All the qiΔ turned into ashes, and no one remembered.
Yi Xiantian understood this, so he wanted to leave before leaving. Give yourself what you deserve.
Thinking about this, Yang Ji felt a lot of emotion in his heart. Regarding Yi Xiantian's impression, he is actually not very good. He is arrogant, conceited, and obstinate.
However, listening to his words at this time, Yang Ji couldn't help but have a trace of respect in his heart. He may have such and such shortcomings in his character, but as a general, he is qualified and worthy of the name.
The general was serious. In his position, seeking his position, the situation at that time, was just to escape for his life. β
Yang Ji said lightly.
"Huh. β
Yi Xiantian just smiled: "I don't have real power in my hands now, and the martial arts on my body are due to the restrictions of the family, and there is no way to pass them on to you." So the reward that can be given to you is very hindering. β
There was a sudden silence behind the screen, Yi Xiantian seemed to be in thought, and after a while, with a bang, something was thrown out from behind the heavy curtains, and landed on the ground in front of Yang Ji, with a metallic sound.
"This is a special 'Captain Walking' token. If you're interested in showing your way through the military, this token will be useful to you. β
"The 'Captain Walking' token is not really a lieutenant rank, but is only used to confer special military power. Generally equivalent to the rank of 'captain' at the next level. β
"You're still just a martial artist, so there's no way to use this token normally. Only a maximum of five elite armorers can be called, and there is a three-day limit. However, once you have obtained the 'Martial Boy Talent', you can transfer a team of fifteen elite armor soldiers and equipment from the military in any territory of Taiyi Continent at any time, and enter the government to consult the archives and materials, without being limited by the time court and the military. β
"All the treatment and real power of a qiΔ are completely equivalent to the rank of captain. - This is the best way I can help you. β
Yi Xiantian's words were plain, but Yang Ji's heart set off a wave of waves. There is a strict and clear "line" between the military and the secular and sectarian.
It's like two parallel lines, once you choose one of them, you can't set foot in the other.
But Yi Xiantian's token is different, with this token, Yang Ji can also have the identity, status and influence of the level of "Wang Xian" at the same time while joining the sect, and can mobilize the people of the imperial court.
Yang Ji did not join the army for a day, but he had the right to the rank of captain, which had never been heard of before.
"This token is absolutely unusual. β
Yang Ji immediately sniffed something unusual. The lieutenants of the imperial court were subject to military regulations, and it was impossible to use the power in their hands at will.
However, a "Du Wei Walking" token can allow Yang Ji to move troops in Taiyi Continent at will without restrictions, which is not trivial!
Yang Ji immediately felt the heavy weight in the token.
"Thank you, General!"
Yang Jigong said.
"Don't thank me, you deserve it. ...... I'm a little tired, Xiaoyu, you can help me send him away. β
"If you have time, go and see Yuanyuan. β
At the door of the General's Mansion, the "beauty in white" suddenly stopped, with a smile on her face.
"Huh?"
Yang Ji's face was dazed.
"Huh. You won't forget the girl who fought for the first place in Pingchuan City with you, right?"
The beautiful woman in white smiled.
"Bai Yuanyuan, you mean Bai Yuanyuan?!"
Yang Ji finally reacted, with a look of surprise. He didn't expect that. This beautiful woman in white actually seems to know Bai Yuanyuan: "Is something wrong with her?"
"I didn't expect Yuanyuan to like him!"
The beautiful woman in white glanced deeply at the young man in front of her. Smiling silently, he slowly retreated into the corridor of the General's Mansion.
Yang Ji looked at her back in a daze. I was completely stunned by this inexplicable remark. What exactly does she mean, why is Bai Yuanyuan suddenly mentioned, and what is their relationship?
There is no answer to this qiΔ at all. The beauty in white just left him a meaningful smile, and disappeared into the corridor. When Yang Ji came back to his senses, the beauty in white had disappeared. The entire corridor of the General's Mansion was empty, and a black shadow flashed at the end of the corridor. Appears to be a fox......
"White Round...... Beautiful woman in white...... Yi Xiantian ......"
Yang Ji crossed a series of thoughts in his mind, but he never understood the essentials, sighed in his heart, and left the general's mansion.
Langya City is only located on the path of Yang Ji's search for the "Book of Confucianism", and when he came out of the General's Mansion, Yang Ji no longer stayed, and went straight to the west.
......
The mountains are undulating along the way. Yang Ji walked through the bushes of woods and high mountain peaks, and after about half a day, Yang Ji finally resisted the place where the Confucian and Taoist predecessors remembered in the evil spirit's body.
"The vicissitudes of the sea, 6 sink the river and move. I hope the cave I talked about is still there. β
Yang Ji was secretly worried in his heart.
After all, the Confucian and Taoist predecessors who incarnated as evil spirits were the existants of the eternal years, and during the time he was asleep, the dynasty changed, the era changed, and many things changed, and it is difficult to say whether the previous cave is still there.
Yang Ji can only deduce the approximate location of the cave from the distance between the cave in the memory of the evil spirit and the time of his death.
What appeared in front of Yang Ji was a continuous forest of conifers, with lush branches and leaves, spreading along the undulating ground like a carpet.
Regardless of whether the "Book of Confucianism" is still there, at least, the mountains and forests in the memory of the Confucian and Taoist predecessors are gone.
"There was still half an hour to go, and we had to wait until after dark to deduce the exact location of the cave. β
Yang Ji looked up at the sky, secretly calculating in his heart.
The vicissitudes of life, the dragon and the snake rise 6, no matter how the world changes, the starry sky will not change, or...... , at least not much will change.
Although Yang Ji didn't know the specific location of the cave, he could still find the exact location of the cave as long as he reversed the location of the stars in the sky.
The sun sets and the moon rises, and before you know it, the sky is dark. In the blink of an eye, it was as if countless diamonds were scattered on the curtain, and countless stars began to appear in the sky.
Yang Jipan sat on the ground, looked up at the stars, and began to understand the "star map" he had learned, and began to calculate the buried location of the "Book of Great Confucianism".
"Green Dragon...... Suzaku ...... Xuanwu ......"
Yang Ji's mind turned sharply, and he began to project star maps one after another, matching them with the stars in the sky. It is not easy to deduce the position from the stars of TongguΓ².
However, after being familiar with the star charts and astrological signs, with his strong psychoanalysis ability, this matter became much easier for Yang Ji.
"Worked it out...... There it is!"
Suddenly, the essence in Yang Ji's eyes skyrocketed, and he stood up violently. Under the dim starlight, Yang Ji saw a green mountain standing there under the sky.
"Whoosh!"
With a light breeze, Yang Ji immediately jumped out of here.
"I hope the Book of Confucianism is still here. β
Yang Ji froze and suddenly took out "Xiao Ji".
"Xiao Ji, help me search this mountain and see if there are any caves underground. β
Yang Ji patted Xiao Ji's head, and soon watched it turn into a black shadow and sink into the ground.
