Chapter 247 True love in times of adversity
After returning to Baojiao County, Chen Ku was not in a hurry to go directly to Qiulong Mansion to reunite with his family and masters. Instead, he stood not far from the outer city and stared at Baojiao County.
Although he escaped, many of his relatives and friends were still trapped in the city.
If I just leave now, it would be like watching some of my friends and relatives in the city being enslaved by Heian Dao and turned into so-called believers of the Kingdom of God, and never being free again.
Especially Chai Tiangui, Jiang Shaoyou, Wu Gui and Li Jiyang, the grandfather and grandson of his Chenji Iron Shop, and his brother-in-law whose whereabouts are unknown.
"Although I am not a real man, I cannot be an ungrateful villain. These people must be rescued."
He muttered to himself.
He transformed into a small bee and approached Baojiao County. He thought that with the size of a small bee, he could enter the city without anyone noticing.
As a result, as soon as it approached the city wall, it collided head-on with an invisible air barrier.
hum~~
Along with this collision, pond-like patterns suddenly appeared in the air, and traces of the movement of runes could be faintly seen.
He was startled:
"Is this... the 'Golden Light Array of Incense' recorded in the [Nine Heavens Divine Curse]?"
He immediately activated [Double Pupils].
He looked towards the city, and was shocked to see, under his pupils that could see the yin and yang, ghosts and gods, that at this moment above Baojiao County, which covered the Baojiao City with a radius of 50 miles, there was actually a golden light cover like an 'eggshell', covering the entire city.
Simultaneously,
In every household, some powder that looked like golden stardust actually floated out and gathered at the location of the "City God Temple" in the city.
Then, from the location of the City God Temple, it transformed into four pillars of light, maintaining the large formation above the entire city.
On top of the city wall, one could see rows of Yellow Turban Taoist soldiers guarding the city.
"This Ping An Dao has really turned Bao Jiao County into an iron barrel-like fortress in the physical sense. In addition, the number of Taoist soldiers guarding the city has increased tenfold. Why does it feel like the number of Ping An Dao soldiers in the city has increased by at least 8,000 to 9,000? Could it be that during the half day I entered the Hero King's Treasure, all the bases of the Ping An Dao monsters wandering outside Bao Jiao County have entered the city and stationed there?"
Chen Ku felt the strength of the golden incense array, which was no less than the defense of a seventh-level master. He realized clearly that he could not fly in from high altitude.
And with the nearly 10,000 Pyeongan-do soldiers, we can't just force our way in!
So, he chose to escape underground.
As a result, he didn't expect that there was a golden circle underground, which caused his dragon body to hit a wall.
Chen Ku frowned:
"I just don't believe it. Does your formation really have no weaknesses?"
He immediately began to recall the contents of the entire Nine Heavens Divine Mantra in his mind, and learned about the great array of incense and golden light in detail. Finally, he discovered some of the rules governing the operation of the array.
"Got it. I can use the 'Spiritual Grasp' of the Vacuum Patriarch to tear open a weak spot in the formation!"
Just like that, as Chen Ku waited, he discovered a gap in the operation of the runes underground with his double pupils. Two big hands suddenly stretched out from his mind and tore towards there violently!
Stab it!
The big hand directly tore open a small gap, and Chen Ku seized the opportunity and squeezed in.
After entering.
Chen Ku secretly said:
"This is because it is underground, so it is not very noticeable. If we enter from the sky, we can see everything in the city clearly."
After coming in from the big formation.
Chen Ku pushed open the ground in front of a civilian house with his body, but as soon as he emerged, he heard the sound of chanting scriptures and incantations coming from every household in the city. The number of people far exceeded the 30,000 to 50,000 people that should have been in the city, and was estimated to be around 100,000.
Can't help but be awed:
"This Heian Dao has also brought the people from the countryside into captivity. They are really treating the people as a 'human mine' for cultivation to squeeze out incense offerings. It's so late, and they're still chanting scriptures and mantras?"
Unfortunately, my arms are not strong enough now, so I can only try my best to rescue some people who are close to me from the cage.
Standing in the yard, he looked around to determine the direction and said to himself, "This is the east of the city. Not far away is Mr. Chai's home. I'll go ask him first!"
Soon, they arrived at Chai Tiangui's house.
As soon as he entered the house, Chen Ku saw that the house had become more than ten times more dilapidated in just three or four days. He followed the smell and found Chai Tiangui in the hall. When he looked again, he found that many of the furnishings in the hall were gone.
At this moment, Chai Tiangui's family gathered in the hall, chanting the mantra of Ping An Dao, and the power of incense and thoughts was constantly generated from their bodies.
"Young Master Chai!"
Chen Ku's voice woke Chai Tiangui up. When he saw Chen Ku standing outside the door in a green dress, he couldn't help but wipe his eyes and murmured:
"Am I chanting the spell and getting stupid? I actually saw Brother Chen?"
Chen Ku walked into the room and saw that Chai Tiangui and his family had been drained of their energy by the constant chanting of incantations. Their eye sockets were sunken, their skin was sallow, and they had lost a lot of weight. He then walked over to Chai Tiangui and said softly:
"I'm Chen Ku, Brother Chai!"
Chai Tiangui shuddered, feeling the breath of the living person in front of him, and said in disbelief: "Brother Chen, is it really you? You...you guys were already...how could it be..."
Chen Ku said: "I came back just to rescue you, Brother Chai, from this hell on earth. It all depends on whether you are willing or not."
Chai Tiangui was so excited when he heard this: "This? Are you serious? I am willing, of course I am willing!"
He would be willing to leave this hell on earth.
"Of course, not only you, but also your family, no one is missing, I can take you away." Chen Ku comforted Chai Tiangui.
Chai Tiangui had tears in his eyes, and everyone in the Chai family was also surprised and wanted to cry.
"Then go and pack up your gold and silver. I'll take you away."
Hearing this, Chai Tiangui hurriedly asked his wife and daughter to pack up. In a blink of an eye, after a few turns, several women came out holding several small boxes.
Chen Ku comforted him, "Don't worry, you can pack slowly. After all, you still have to live after leaving Baojiao County, so prepare some more things for your future life."
Unexpectedly, the women's eyes turned red and they began to sob softly.
Chai Tiangui's eyes were also red, and he said, "That's all. These are all that are left."
"Gone? Brother Chai, with such a huge family business, how could it be..." Chen Ku was incredulous.
Chai Tiangui laughed bitterly and said, "On the second day after the demons entered the city, the demon soldiers began to plunder the entire city. No one who was rich and had money and food at home could escape. All their homes were confiscated. Only these small amounts of silver and clothes were from the savings of several concubines."
Chen Ku sighed, and then said no more, "It will get better in the future. I will take you away first."
Chai Tiangui nodded with tears in his eyes.
Chen Ku flicked his sleeves, and dozens of men, women, old and young in the room were all controlled by mental hypnosis and fell asleep. Then he summoned the Xia Wangjie and took them all away.
Although those rescued were all close friends, the existence of the Xia Wang Realm was still Chen Ku's biggest secret, so he had to let them all fall asleep as a last resort.
Then, Chen Ku went to Tongwenguan again and woke up Jiang Shaoyou's family in the middle of the night. Facing Chen Ku's purpose, Jiang Shaoyou was also ecstatic, and hurriedly instructed his family to sleep in the Xiawang Realm using the same method as Chen Ku.
In this way, Chen Ku used the same method to put Wu Gui's family and Li Ji Yang's grandson in his iron shop into the Xia Wang Realm.
Finally, he used the Hundred Miles Tracking Technique to search for his brother-in-law.
"Hmm? He's really still alive..."
Chen Ku looked towards the location where his brother-in-law's breath was coming from, and it was actually the prison cell of the county government.
Something moved in my heart.
He fled towards the cell, then turned into a little bee and flew into the cell.
However, Li Yuancheng and others were imprisoned in the same cell, and Chen Ku recognized the chief constable Wang Yixian in the cell. However, when Chen Ku approached Li Yuancheng, he was shocked to find that his brother-in-law had lost an arm, his face looked like a consumptive, and he was slumped in the corner.
“Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, wake up!”
Li Yuancheng opened his eyes dazedly, puzzled: "What is this sound?"
"Brother-in-law, I'm Chen Ku, I'm here to save you!"
Chen Ku transformed into a little bee and spoke in Li Yuancheng's ear, saying:
"Just be quiet and don't talk. I'll get you out right away."
Li Yuancheng was shocked.
Because he found that the person talking in his ear was actually a bee, and it was the voice of his brother-in-law.
However, there was no time for him to react.
call out!
A white light flashed vaguely, and then Li Yuancheng disappeared from the cell.
After rescuing my brother-in-law.
Chen Ku left the cell and flew into the sky. He took another look at the Baojiao City in his sight, sighed, and said:
"I hope the imperial court can recover the lost territory soon, and I and everyone else can return one day."
The heart talk ends.
He escaped underground again, and using the same old trick, he tore a gap in the ground with his mental power and slipped out.
Of course,
But just when Chen Ku escaped from the golden incense formation, the two consecutive tearing of the formation finally made the two guardian gods of Ping An Dao at the source of the incense formation sense that something was wrong at the same time.
moment,
When Chen Ku looked back, he saw with his double pupils that in the City God Temple in Baojiao County, there were two golden gods, each thirty-six feet tall. They snorted coldly and slapped towards him at the same time!
“Seventh Realm!!”
As someone who had already witnessed the methods of many seventh-level masters, especially when there was still a leader of the seventh-level Peaceful Dao imprisoned in the Xia Wang Realm, he recognized the two golden spirits at a glance. They were cultivators of the seventh level of the soul system's possession realm.
Crackling!
In an instant, Chen Ku used his lightning-fast steps without hesitation and escaped three or four miles underground in one breath.
boom!
I just felt like an earthquake behind my ears, and my two palms fell, shaking the city.
He dodged these two moves and looked back in dismay:
“Those two gods should be the ‘Imperial Spirit’ and the ‘Heavenly Master’ among the four guardian gods. How could it be… They should be in the sixth realm like the missionary Piao Gao and the master of Zhenkong. How could they have reached the seventh realm in just a few days? Could it be…”
He fled another seven or eight miles away before looking at the thick and tangible incense burning at the City God Temple in the city. He took a breath and said:
"This Shinto practice is truly terrifying. As long as there is enough incense and faith, the realm will rise rapidly. It is truly 'creating a god in one day'..."
The two guardian spirits have made such progress within three or four days. Could the coming of the so-called 'God of Yellow Sky' that they are preparing for really summon the evil god from outside the domain?
With the long-term nourishment of the incense and faith of about 100,000 people, what kind of realm of the God of Heaven will emerge?
"Never mind, never mind, let Wang Chao deal with the headache!"
Chen Ku watched as the two golden-armored gods did not catch up with him, but just ran away.
And in Baojiao County.
In the City God Temple, the new "temple" in the city, Ma Tianlin frowned, watching the two gods beside him take action, and asked:
"Who broke into the formation?"
"Someone escaped from the city and was able to tear apart the golden light formation. He must be at least at the sixth or seventh level of strength." A golden-armored deity said in a deep voice.
"This is a good thing. There were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Baojiao County before. Many guys in the sixth and seventh realms were trapped inside. If we don't ask them to leave, there will always be gunpowder buried around them." Ma Tianlin said slowly.
Another golden-armored deity looked in the direction of Liangjie Mountain and said, "The news sent back yesterday was that the Xia Wang's underground palace disappeared underground. Piao Gao and the leader are missing because of this, which is really worrying."
"It doesn't matter. As long as the God of Huang Tian comes, we can find the leader!"
…………
After Chen Ku and his men left Baojiao City, they traveled all night. With his speed, they finally arrived at Qiulong Mansion at dawn.
Looking from afar.
The city wall of Qiulong Mansion was like a giant beast crawling on the ground. It was already dawn and people had started to enter and exit the city gate, but the defenses were unprecedentedly tight, with more than a hundred armored soldiers stationed there.
Chen Ku estimated that if he went directly into the city, he would probably get into trouble, so he just followed the scent and looked for the people from the Medicine King Hall in the Qiulong Mansion, and after finding his target.
He escaped underground and came to a house in Qiulong Mansion. Inside the house were his family members, including his mother, sister-in-law, and Huzi.
It's obvious that this house was purchased for their family by Yaowangtang.
Chen Ku first sent the relatives and friends of Baojiao County out of the Xiawang Realm, arranged them in the yard, and then woke them up one by one.
"Where is this?" Chai Tiangui, Jiang Shaoyou and others woke up and were still rubbing their eyes.
"Brother?! Was it really you who rescued me from prison?" Li Yuancheng looked at the yard and looked at Chen Ku in disbelief.
At this moment.
My sister-in-law, eldest sister and mother in the house were also woken up, especially the eldest sister Chen Tian, who recognized her husband's voice outside almost instantly, hurriedly put on her clothes and came to the yard.
When she saw Li Yuancheng in prison uniform in the courtyard, she rushed over excitedly: "Husband!"
Li Yuancheng also looked at his wife absentmindedly.
As a result, when Chen Tian pounced, she suddenly discovered that her husband had a broken arm. Her eyes immediately became hot and she was so excited and frightened that she couldn't speak.
"Thanks to Erlang, I am still alive. It's a blessing." Li Yuancheng seemed to have survived a disaster: "An arm, gone is gone."
Chen Ku walked towards his family members at this time and explained the people in the yard to them, saying: "These are all my friends in the city. Now I have rescued them from the city, and they are temporarily resting in our house!"
At this time, the eldest sister and the old mother were immersed in the joy of Chen Ku and Li Yuancheng's return. What's more, Chen Ku was the head of the family, so of course, whatever he said was the final word.
After Chen Ku finished talking to his family, he also looked at Chai Tiangui, Jiang Shaoyou and others, bowed to them, and said seriously:
"Young Master Chai, Senior Brother Jiang, you can rest assured and settle down here for the next two days. Here are five thousand taels of silver notes..."
Although Chen Ku didn't have much money on him now, he could still take out eight thousand taels.
When Chai Tiangui and Jiang Shaoyou saw Chen Ku take out two large banknotes, they quickly refused and said, "No, no... How can I still ask you for it..."
Chen Ku said seriously:
"I know that your homes have been ransacked by the demon soldiers, so whether you two want to make a comeback in Qiulong Mansion or rent or buy a house to settle down, you will need money. Please do not refuse. This is my gift to you brothers."
Chai Tiangui's eyes felt sore.
He was so wealthy in the past that he never had to worry about making money every day. He was only worried about how to spend it. It was not until all the family property left by his ancestors was taken away by the monster that he realized how much he needed money.
In the past, he would not even look at the five thousand taels if they fell on the ground. But now, it is enough for his family of dozens of people to live out the rest of their lives happily in Qiulong Mansion.
Jiang Shaoyou took a deep breath and said, "Brother Chen, I won't be polite with you. Just think of this money as a loan from our Jiang family. You know, our family is also in business, and this ability to make a living will never be useless. It won't be long before we can pay you back!"
Chen Ku smiled and said, "I believe it."
After that, he handed two large-denomination silver bills to Chai Tiangui and Jiang Shaoyou respectively.
Chai Tiangui felt embarrassed but just accepted it.
Chen Ku finally looked at Wu Gui and Li Jiyang, grandfather and grandson, and said with a smile: "You are still following me, but we have changed from the Medicine King Hall in Baojiao County to the Three Emperors Patriarch Association in Qiulong Mansion. If I have a bite to eat, you will have a bite to eat."
Chai Tiangui looked at this scene, feeling sour in his heart and eyes. He never expected that he would really meet such a person in this life.
It is said that a friend in need is a friend indeed. (End of this chapter)
