The Dominance of Martial Arts: Starting from the Tiger Roaring Golden Bell

Chapter 434 Siege
Ten days passed in a blink of an eye.

During these ten days, the strange things in the outer city disappeared one after another.

Although the people did not know the reason, the uneasiness and anxiety among them were becoming less and less.

The same is true for the inner city. The strange phenomenon of people turning into "mud" due to losing bones no longer happens.

However, those noble families were not happy about this, and some of them even broke into the Xiao Mansion in a threatening manner.

However, in the end, all these furious people left the Xiao Mansion with a smile.

At this time, in the room overlooking the lake.

Sisters Rumeng and Ruhuan were concentrating with Qin Zhiming, staring at his raised right hand.

hum!
A faint gray light appeared at the fingertips, and the light gradually spread, engulfing the right hand.

Looking at the lifelike petrified right hand that looked like it was carved from bluestone, Qin Zhiming gently clenched and stretched it, everything was normal.

Then, the texture of the stone on the back of my hand began to change, the gray faded and the brown appeared.

Soon, the rough wood completely replaced the smooth stone, and a wooden hand emitting a fragrant scent appeared.

Then, looking at their right hands that had been restored to flesh and blood, Rumeng and Ruhuan immediately bowed their heads and saluted towards Qin Zhiming:

"Congratulations, Immortal! You are one step closer to becoming an immortal!"

Qin Zhiming nodded, stood up and looked out the window.

He could feel the good and evil energies like waves pouring into his body from four directions.

This means that the four counties guarding Chaomu City have all been taken over by their subordinates.

Relying on the blessing of "Infinite Return to the Body Technique", within a short period of time, the two energies of good and evil have been integrated with his body, and divine power has been born in his body.

The changes in my right hand just now were caused by divine power.

I estimate that in a month, I will be able to integrate the good and evil energies with my mind and enter the second stage of becoming an immortal.

If the Immortal Sect knew about this, they would definitely be amazed at the speed at which Qin Zhiming became an immortal.

However, for Qin Zhiming, it was still too slow.

"It doesn't matter. As long as I can ensure that there is enough good and evil energy, becoming an immortal will be a piece of cake for me."

Thinking of this, Qin Zhiming looked at Rumeng and Ruhuan.

“One of you two, go inform Dong De and ask him to urge Xiao Guanyu to quickly surround the city.

The other one goes to find Fan Jiu and asks him to rescue Wang Yue."

"Yes."

As soon as Ru Meng and Ru Huan finished their words, their figures disappeared.

Xiao Mansion, study.

“The four things are back, and the four counties have indeed fallen.

Those guys followed your orders and only killed a few people to establish their authority.

The majority of the remaining people live under their control."

Upon hearing the news from Master Gao, Xiao Guanyu breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that I was really overthinking it.

“In that case, notify all the noble families and prepare to siege the city immediately.

Send someone to find Dong De and call him over."

Not long after, Dong De, panting, sat on the chair in the study.

He picked up the tea on the table and drank it all, then took out his handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Brother Xiao. Why are you looking for me so urgently?"

"Brother Dong, I am going to siege the city tomorrow."

As soon as these words were spoken, Dong De, who was panting, immediately stopped his actions.

He put down his handkerchief and stared at Xiao Guanyu.

"So fast?"

"Everything is ready, it can only be this way."

After a moment of silence, Dong De sighed.

"I understand. What do you need me to do?"

"It's simple. Let all the government officials guard the granaries and money warehouses during the siege.

No matter what happens, they can't leave.

In exchange, I promised that as long as the officials and their families were small, they would stay in the designated place.

They won’t be harmed when those things come into the city.”

"Okay, anything else?"

“Tomorrow, I need you to gather all the people in the city under the pretext of solving a strange incident.

Then, I will let everyone witness the disaster coming."

After a moment, Xiao Guanyu narrowed his eyes slightly as he watched Dong De's departing back.

“Send a spook to keep an eye on him.

If he does something that goes against the plan, just kill him."

"it is good."

Half an hour later, Qin Zhiming, who was in a dreamy state, came to the famous Fanxing Tower in the inner city under the guidance of a pretty maid.

The maid pushed open the door and a round table filled with food came into view.

Xiao Guanyu and Master Gao were sitting at the round table. They stood up together and raised their glasses to Qin Zhiming who came in.

"Brother Qin, long time no see."

Qin Zhiming picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it all in one gulp. Bang.

He put down his wine glass and looked at Xiao Guanyu expressionlessly.

"When will the siege begin? Are you afraid?"

Xiao Guanyu smiled and drank a glass of wine.

"How is that possible? The arrow is on the string and must be released.

Tomorrow, tomorrow we will siege the city."

"it is good!"

Qin Zhiming slammed the table, causing the dishes and chopsticks to shake everywhere.

"You're not lying to me, are you?"

Xiao Guanyu looked at him with a firm gaze.

"Tomorrow at noon, if those things don't surround the city, I will take off my head and make a cup for Brother Qin."

"That's good!"

Qin Zhiming smiled and poured himself a glass of wine and drank it in one gulp.

"If this can be accomplished, I wonder who can compete with me for the position of Patriarch!"

Seeing that Qin Zhiming was very emotional, Xiao Guanyu proposed another possibility to him.

"What if it fails?"

Qin Zhiming chuckled and drank another glass of wine.

"Failure? Then I can bring my whole family along with me.

I am looking forward to it. I wonder if those people will still look down on me as they always do before I die.”

Qin Zhiming turned the wine glass, his eyes showing complicated emotions.

After drinking with this crazy young man for a while, Xiao Guanyu saw that he was in a good mood and decided to tell him the purpose of inviting him here.

"This is a magical weapon made by a cultivator in my mansion, named [Mother and Child Nail of Death Together]."

Xiao Guanyu placed the two bone nails on the table.

They all look the same, with small skull heads and bone spikes on the nail bodies.

Qin Zhiming kept smiling as he looked into Xiao Guanyu's eyes.

"What do you mean?"

"I want to add a safeguard to our plan. This magic weapon will connect our two lives together.

If one dies, both die."

"presumptuous!"

Ruhuan cried out delicately, and wisps of white cold air suddenly appeared on her body surface.

Feeling the rapidly dropping temperature, Xiao Guanyu threw a bone nail at Qin Zhiming.

Snapped.

Rumeng caught the bone nail and was about to crush it when a voice rang in her ears.

"Ru Meng, give it to me."

"Yes."

Qin Zhiming took the bone nail and looked at it carefully.

"Come in."

Squeak.

Fan Jiu pushed the door open and Master Gao frowned.

When did this man come in? How come I didn't notice it?

Xiao Guanyu noticed Master Gao's gaze, but did not react.

"Is this thing really true that if one person dies, both die?"

Fan Jiu took the bone nail that Qin Zhiming handed over with both hands.

After stroking it for a while, he stretched out his finger and pointed at Master Gao.

“Indeed, this evil weapon must have been made by her.

Master, are you going to kill him?"

In an instant, two piercing chills swept through the room.

These two chills are different from the chills emitted by Ru Meng and Ru Huan.

Although the temperature did not drop, everyone felt their bodies were getting colder and colder, especially their hearts, which seemed to be frozen.

"Okay, I'm just asking."

Qin Zhiming's casual words made Fan Jiu immediately retract the coldness from his body.

Seeing this, Xiao Guanyu reached out and patted the back of Master Gao's right hand.

As the two of them got rid of their coldness, the atmosphere in the room gradually warmed up.

"how to use?"

"You and I, swallow it together."

Xiao Guanyu walked to Qin Zhiming, picked up a bone nail and swallowed it.

"Guaranteed? Hahahahahaha."

Qin Zhiming laughed and put the bone nail into his mouth.

He picked up the wine glass and swallowed the wine and the bone nail together with a gulp.

"From this moment on, we two will live and die together."

Xiao Guanyu stared into Qin Zhiming's eyes, emphasizing every word.
