Chapter 204 Divide the troops into two stupas to block the way ([-] words for subscription)
it's over!
By the stream, when the body of "Iron Catcher" fell straight and straight, causing a wave of earth, Yu Yu's chest rose and fell violently, and an illusion of "survival after the catastrophe" spontaneously arose.

She turned her head to look at Ji Ping'an, only to see the latter standing not far away, with a calm expression, and with a hook of her finger, she snuffed out the chains condensed by the platinum starlight, and her movements were relaxed and freehand.

The contrast is strong.

"Hmph, if these things hadn't misled me and made me think that they were all stupid fools, I wouldn't have been attacked by him," Yu Yu arrogantly forcibly pulled her respect:

"And I still have cards."

Ah, yes, yes, yes... Ji Pingan said "Yes", and looked at her with a half-smile in his eyes:

"Why don't you suppress the poison first?"

Yu Yu's small face turned red, remembering the momentary loss of composure that had just been aroused, he couldn't help stamping his feet in annoyance, and silently recited the "Qingxin Mantra" to clear away the remaining emotions.

Just after Fang finished, he heard a loud shout in the distance.

After dozens of rounds of wrestling with his opponent, Pei Qian finally used Pei's unique martial arts swordsmanship to cut off the head of the weakest policeman.

Then a fart fell on the river beach, gasping for breath, nervous and excited, laughing loudly:
"I did it!"

"..." Yu Yu sighed woodenly, walked to Ji Pingan's side, and found that he was squatting on the ground, checking the sealed "Iron Catcher".

"What did you find? Speaking of which, there's something wrong with this thing." Yu Yu muttered.

Ji Ping'an tapped the copper-colored skin of the catcher lightly, made a clanging sound, and said:

"Obviously, it has already advanced to Bronze Corpse. If it is two days later, it may transform into Silver Corpse. And this village alone is obviously not enough to support its transformation."

He squeezed the scorched arm with his fingers, and sighed:

"So, this thing is the key."

Yu Yu frowned: "What is this?"

Ji Ping'an's eyes were complicated: "The magician's body remains."

Yu Yu raised his head in shock, his eyes widened, his small mouth stretched into an O-shape, in disbelief:
"Father of the Devil? That ancient strong man believed by the Four Saints? Are you sure?"

Nonsense... This arm was cut off by myself back then, and the scorched black on it was made by me using the "Lihuo Sword Art" to attract the fire of the Pure Yang Sun... Ji Pingan complained silently.

In this world, there are very few people who can recognize a magician with just one arm, and it just so happens that he is one.

Ji Ping'an looked solemn:
"Everything is connected in series, and I finally know the purpose of the Four Saints and how to do it."

Yu Yu looked silly and sweet: "What the hell?"

Ji Pingan sighed and explained:
"Do you still remember the massacre of bodyguards we participated in when we first arrived in Yuhang? Later, when we traced the source, we learned that the pair of bodyguards were escorting the body of a magician, but I didn't expect to have such a big arm."

Now sort out:
In order to prolong the life of the insane Pei Wuju, the Pei family searched all over the Kyushu for many years, and finally obtained a part of the "magician's remnant body", which was intended to be used as medicine, but because the "curse to kill Sanren" took away the eldest son of the Pei family, the head of the Pei family was stabbed in the back ,Missing……

In order to deceive others and avoid the eyes of the second and third bedrooms, Li Xiangjun hired a team of bodyguards from Yuhang to escort the remnant of the magician.

As a result, Curse Sha Sanren colluded with the Four Saints, and it was suspected that this information had been leaked, resulting in the mage's remnant body being cut off by the Four Saints.

"At that time, I didn't quite know the real purpose of the Four Sacred Sect to find the mage's body. I only knew that it might be to resurrect him. Now it seems that the incident that involved the entire Sanhuang County this time is the last incident. follow-up." Ji Pingan said.

Yu Yu blinked his big eyes and suddenly realized:

"You mean, they did this major event not only to cultivate demon seeds, obtain tools to control the rivers and lakes, and mass-produce 'iron corpses' to enhance their strength, but the deeper purpose is to revive the ancestor of the demonic way?"

Ji Pingan nodded:
"It's possible. Of course, it's not necessarily for resurrection. A more practical plan may be to create a powerful enough 'corpse king'."

Pointing to the copper corpse on the ground, he said:

"Remember what I said before, it is very difficult to raise Gu with corpses, especially to create iron corpses in a short time and on a large scale, you need something strong enough as a medium. The remnant body of a magician is the key to this incident. It is expected that there is an expert in the Four Sacred Cults who is proficient in this way, concocted this arm with the method of refining corpses, and threw it into the stream of Qidun Mountain."

"This arm is the source of this batch of Gu worms. It polluted the entire water vein and sent the original Gu worms to the villages and towns along the way. All the iron corpses will be attracted by the arm of the source. This is why, when we entered the village, we encountered so many iron corpses that we could not get rid of."

Ji Pingan said in a deep voice:

"This yamen servant probably came here to investigate and was manipulated by parasites. In a short period of time, he became a copper corpse. He hid in the stream and never left. He was probably digesting, transforming, and trying to become stronger. Or wait for more and more iron corpses in Sanhuang County to become a scale before they are born. At that time, whether it is to devour other iron corpses and continue to evolve, become a "golden corpse", or become the "king" who commands all iron corpses It is what the Four Saints are happy to see."

Yu Yu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and suddenly clapped his little hand:
"So, the reason why they chose the location in Sanhuang County is to use the Jianghu warriors in the Central Plains as nourishment for cultivating corpse kings?"

Hey, you can draw inferences from one instance... Ji Pingan said with relief:
"Very likely. It's already difficult for a bronze corpse to be promoted to a silver corpse. If you want to go further, devouring the flesh and blood of mortals is not very useful, but the Jianghu monks are very suitable. Through this method, the Jianghu people in the Central Plains martial arts are forced to disperse and go to various places to quell the chaos. .

And once the parasitic corpse of the magician's remnant body came out of the mountain and began to lead the army of iron corpses to hunt around, those Jianghu people became the hunting targets instead. "

Yu Yu gasped, surprised by this guess:

"So, the Martial Arts League called on the heroes to prepare to destroy the Four Sacred Sects. But the latter, in turn, took advantage of the opportunity of the Martial Arts League to gather people from the rivers and lakes together, and set up a situation to raise Gu?"

As a flower in the greenhouse, the saint only felt a chill down her spine.

It can only be said that for the old guys who have returned from history, there is no such thing as a moral bottom line.

Ji Pingan sighed:
"Although it is only speculation, it is likely to be close to the truth."

Yu Yu was afraid at first, and then looked at him in amazement:
"So, you came here directly because of the revelation given by astrology? So, let's burn this thing with a fire, so as to save it from causing trouble."

Saying that, the saint began to rub the fireball, as if doing justice for the heavens.

Ji Pingan said speechlessly:

"If the mage's remnant body is really easy to destroy, that's fine."

He pointed to the chest of "Iron Catcher", and saw that the damaged internal organs and skin had almost recovered during the time he spoke, and the seal talisman on his forehead was also flickering.

"If you want to suppress the mage's remnant body, you must at least observe the sky. With your current abilities, you and I cannot destroy it. It won't take long before it will break through the seal."

Ji Pingan calmly analyzed:
"Also, the existence of this thing will continuously attract nearby iron corpses."

Yu Yu's head was as big as a bucket, and he was dumbfounded:

"Then what should we do?"

Facing a copper bump that could not be killed and could recover infinitely, the saint suddenly found it difficult.

Ji Pingan smiled:

"Don't be pessimistic, this thing is a trouble, but also an opportunity. It is indeed difficult to solve, but once it can be truly suppressed, because it is the origin of the Gu worms in the entire Sanhuang County, as long as it is solved, the crisis in the entire Sanhuang County will also be solved. It's easy to solve."

Yu Yu held his head in distress and said:

"But how can the two of us have the strength to observe the sky, neither is sitting in a well."

Ji Pingan said:
"We are not, but the prison is."

He suddenly raised his head, looked to the northwest, and said:
"As long as you can take this thing with you, you can return to Yuhang."

Yu Yu was shocked, jumped up and said:

"Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and go."

Ji Pingan shook his head and said:

"As for the escort, I can do it myself. You have more important tasks, go to the 'Dadong Army Mansion' and ask for reinforcements. We must make two-handed preparations. Since the Four Sages are going to use Jianghu people as nourishment, there may be future Hands, such as arranging for the masters of the Four Sages to intercept and kill the Wulin League...

Heh, it's okay for these gangsters to fight with the wind, but if they are in danger, they won't fight desperately, but the court is different...

With your status as a 'saint', it is enough to order the court to send troops to suppress the spread of iron corpses... Only you can do this, because you can represent the state religion and have the right to bypass the orders of the 'Ministry of War' in emergencies, To deploy troops...

Otherwise, even if the military government heard the news, they would not easily send troops because of Da Zhou's military law. "

In any dynasty, troop deployment is an extremely sensitive matter.

Even if it is a "magic general" who sits in the military mansion, once he mobilizes more than a certain number of soldiers and horses, he will inevitably be impeached and the emperor will be jealous.

Yu Yu said anxiously: "Then can you suppress this ghost by yourself?"

Ji Pingan smiled confidently: "Am I the one who fights unprepared?"

Yu Yu was put to sleep. Although he always felt that something was wrong, he couldn't think of a rebuttal, so he nodded vigorously:

"Okay. Then I'll set off now and bring troops to support you."

"Take Pei Qian with you, I'm afraid I won't have the energy to take care of this guy in the future." Ji Pingan said.

At this time, Pei Qian, who was panting for breath in the puddle, came over with a confused face:
"What? Where are you going?"

He felt that he missed an episode of the drama and couldn't catch up with the plot.

Yu Yu picked him up irritably and left:

"Shut up honestly, this saint is going to do a great job of saving the people... When she came out, why did she bring you a burden."

Pei Qian was aggrieved and dared not say a word.

Although the saint is a silly and sweet showman, she is never ambiguous and resolute in the face of major events.

After the agreement was completed, they quickly left the village and rode towards the Dadong Army Mansion on horseback.

……

Ji Pingan stayed where he was, watching him go away, his eyes suddenly became dark.

To transfer the Holy Maiden and Pei Qian away, on the one hand, it is indeed necessary to have a person with enough weight to mobilize the imperial army.

But there are other reasons, such as the "astrology" results, some revelations: If you continue to bring the saint, you may miss some "harvests".

Another example...

"After coming out of Qixia Town for so long, there is no movement. Now that the saint is transferred away, the shark hiding in the dark should come out."

Ji Ping'an's eyes were cold, and his face was gentle and restrained, revealing a faint murderous intent.

Looking up at the dark sky, he first pulled out the Taoist scriptures, and with a slight shake, he summoned Jiang Jiang, the Qi Ling, and Huang Ying, the sword servant.

As a result, the two "humanoid creatures" who were at odds with each other last time came out hand in hand, with disturbed expressions on their faces, and said in unison: "What are you doing?"

This friendship that has grown by leaps and bounds... Ji Pingan exhaled lightly, first pointed to the corpse on the ground, and said to Jiang Jiang:
"I need to use the power of Taoism to temporarily suppress this thing."

He turned his head to look at the round-faced woman in a yellow dress with a guzheng on her back:

"I need your help."

……

……

To the northwest of Qidun Mountain, a small road avoiding the official road.

Wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, Ji Pingan rode alone on horseback.

The sky is getting darker and darker, and above the gray sky, there is rain falling, which wets and smudges the landscape painting.

"Da da."

The sound of horseshoes was dull, and a drop of rain fell slowly with the wind.

Avoiding the bamboo hat, he brushed over the simple and square black scabbard around Ji Pingan's waist, and finally, with a "click", it exploded on a zither with mottled paint and traces of time on his back, making a very slight sound .

Rain, barren hills, ancient roads, galloping horses, people carrying zithers with swords...

The world is like a large ink painting, and Ji Ping'an is the knight walking in the rivers and lakes in that painting.

Suddenly, the front suddenly opened up, and there was a flat grassland, surrounded by mountains on both sides of the front, and there was a gap in the sky.

"Da da da……"

The sound of horseshoes suddenly became louder, heavy and neat, and the ground seemed to be shaking slightly.

Ji Ping'an tightened the reins and stopped on the wilderness. The fine horse provided by Mrs. Pei stepped on the ground uneasily.

Ji Pingan calmly raised his eyes, looked at the valley at the end of the ancient road, and saw a string of smoke faintly rising from the ground.

Then, a group of heavily armored cavalry appeared at the end of sight and quickly approached.

The number was not many, only a dozen or so people, yet they had the aura of thousands of troops.

The black armor covered the whole body, and the helmet hung down from the armor, revealing only a pair of eyes. The demon blood horses with bones obviously different from ordinary horses were also covered with soft armor, which was tightly wrapped from head to toe.

The leader, regardless of the horse or the figure, was exceptionally burly. When he was running, the rain hit his armor, splashing fine mist, holding the rein in one hand, and a large gun in the other arm.

It was dark and heavy, exuding a chilly feeling.

"Iron Buddha..." These four words came to Ji Pingan's mind.

This is the name of the heavy armored cavalry in the Great Zhou army, who are best at breaking formations and killing practitioners.

All members are monks of the martial arts path, and their armor and weapons are all magical weapons, and they are good at attacking in formations.

The leader of each team is the "Buddha Cavalry Chief", who is not an official position, but is extremely powerful.

It is often held by a warrior between the sixth and ninth grades, with extremely rich killing experience, facing the martial arts of the same realm, it is almost a one-sided situation.

Due to the scarcity of Iron Buddha Tu, there is only a pinch in each military mansion.

Although the team in front of them had removed the markings on their armor, it was obvious that they were from the "Great East Army Mansion".

While Ji Pingan was sizing up the opponent, the group of Iron Buddha cavalry was also approaching, but they didn't charge directly, but stopped suddenly in front of them.

Orders and prohibitions show strong obedience.

"despair!"

The leader, General Futu, was wrapped in armor, like a black tower, and the horses under him raised their bowl-sized iron hooves and stomped hard on the ground.

In an instant, the dozen or so cavalrymen behind them simultaneously raised their crossbows, the sharp crossbows locked on Ji Pingan in front of them, but did not fire them.

The two sides confronted each other silently, and a killing intent gradually spread.

Suddenly, at the back of the queue, another horse rattled up, circled from the edge to the front, and immediately sat a figure in a coir raincoat.

When he raised his head, he revealed an old man with expressionless face and gray hair.

Under the coir raincoat, the old man was dressed in rich and noble clothes, with the cuffs rolled up, clean and tidy.

Squinting his eyes and looking forward to Ji Pingan, he suddenly smiled loudly:
"Meet you again, Mr. Li, or...should I call you...'Ji Sichen'?"

When he said the last three words, his voice was sharp and crazy.

His eyes were full of anticipation.

It seemed that in his mind, when he appeared here, he would definitely make the newly-promoted genius of Qin Tianjian pale in shock.

However he was disappointed.

Ji Pingan just sighed softly, the face hidden under the bamboo hat was full of unexpectedness and a hint of...disappointment:
"It really is you, so... you are a well-known figure in the world, but you have secretly joined the military department of the court? If people from the Wulin League knew about it, they would probably be very disappointed... Ding Huan."

Ding Huan!

A representative of the Xinwu faction, "Old Ding" who is quite prestigious in the rivers and lakes of the two prefectures of the Central Plains, should have gone to exterminate the iron corpses at this time, or at least Ding Huan, who was sitting in Qixia Town, appeared here.

Ding Huan's face darkened: "Did you guess it was me?"

This is a little different from what he envisioned.

There was emotion in Ji Ping'an's eyes, but he was not vigilant or afraid.

He sighed softly, facing a group of Iron Buddhas, facing the lock of countless magical weapons and crossbows, with deep disappointment in his eyes:
"It was just a guess at first, but now it's confirmed."

Ding Huan narrowed his eyes: "When did I expose it?"

Ji Pingan said:
"Before Baihutang, ever since you started to target me repeatedly, you have a different temperament from the Ding Huan I know. You shouldn't be such an emotional and reckless man. But what really makes me suspicious is that you took advantage of me to accept Baihutang's law. When a lie detector is used, the words are asked out of the blue."

At that time, Ding Huan asked him how to open the underground palace and what was in the underground palace.

Ding Huan froze for a moment: "What's the problem?"

Ji Pingan said:
"The biggest problem is that you didn't ask me about my identity. Normally, everyone, including you, should be most curious about my real identity, and then those in the underground palace. But when you asked the question abruptly, you only caught Landing in the underground palace, without mentioning my identity at all. The only possibility is that you already knew my identity at that time, and you were not very willing to let me be exposed in public, right?"

Ding Huan was silent.

Ji Pingan continued:
"But you probably didn't know it at first, um...let me think about it, I helped Chen Qingsheng, and after arousing the attention of the entire Qixia Town, someone contacted you and told you that I was born in Qin Tianjian, and asked You cooperate to do some things, such as probing, or finding a way to use the power of the Wulin League to capture me... and the one who ordered you to do this is obviously the Dadong Army Mansion."

Ding Huan's heart throbbed suddenly, and he didn't say a word, because what Ji Pingan said was the truth.

In the early years, he had secretly taken refuge in the imperial court... To be precise, he became a pawn of the Dadong Army Mansion in the arena.

In recent years, the reason why he has gained such a great reputation is the "cooperation" of the imperial court.

Including the emergence of "Xinwu", there is also the impetus of the imperial court, trying to increase the internal fighting in the martial arts in this way, thereby weakening its overall strength.

Just like the emperor's power tactics, it is nothing more than supporting two factions in the court and fighting against each other, so that the imperial power can sit back and relax and be as stable as Mount Tai, the same logic.

The real reason why Ding Huan joined Xinwu was also to follow orders.

It was the same this time, when he received the secret letter from the imperial court, although he was afraid of Ji Ping'an's identity, he had been firmly branded as the Ministry of War for many years.

And a star official who has only heard of fame is obviously not enough to make him disobey the order of the military government.

Ji Pingan said with emotion in his eyes:

"But when Hei Changshi came, you should have been afraid, worried that you would be involved in some high-level struggles, but unfortunately you didn't choose to withdraw. I actually gave you a chance. When I ordered people to If your whereabouts are revealed, you can choose not to say anything, but you still sent this information..."

"I have been waiting for you to appear along the way, but there has been no movement. It was not until the saintess left that you finally showed up... because you didn't want to attack the saintess and anger the Taoist sect, so you want to wait Opportunities, or create opportunities, wait for me to order and then do it..."

Having said that, he sighed lightly, and stopped looking at Ding Huan whose forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Instead, he looked at the Iron Buddha Cavalry Commander, who was covered in armor and exuded a powerful aura:

"Until now, you have finally come, but I still want to ask, why are you here?"

Why come!

Long before departure, Ji Pingan saw the figure of Tie Futu from the "future picture" of astrology, until now, the picture finally became clear.

After listening to the entire conversation, the cavalry commander with a big gun finally made a low voice from the visor:

"As expected of a genius of the Qin Tianjian, it is indeed extraordinary, then you should also know what will happen if you offend us."

Ji Pingan thought for a while and said:

"Sun Xianzu? Because I hurt your general Zhonglang? So Sun Xianzu sent troops to kill me?"

He shook his head and said:

"No. This is not the real answer. Sun Xianzu can't drive you, let alone go to war because of this matter, because he knows very well what that means. Only the generals of the Dadong Army Mansion have the authority to send the Iron Buddha, and he He also has no guts to deal with me."

and so……

The answer seems to be on the horizon.

"Is that you, Yuan Qing?"

Ji Pingan looked in the direction of God's Capital, thinking that the descendants of the first God Emperor would eventually become worse and worse.

The Futu cavalry commander listened silently and did not answer, but raised the lance in his hand.
