Chapter 123 Turning stone into gold

Chapter 123 Turning stone into gold
Qinghe New Town.

A spacious and stately mansion echoes the general's mansion in the distance.

This newly renovated mansion is exactly the residence of military officer Jiang Linxian in Anningwei.

In order to limit the power of generals, the State of Yu would send a military supervisor, who would usually be a military officer to the garrison. Above that, there would be a governor who would supervise a town.

Sometimes there would even be a governor who controlled several towns and was a pillar of the empire who held the second rank.

at this time.

Joined the military office.

"Master Jiang, I have already found out that Cao Wei is trying to capture the demons of the Ghost Sect, but he wants them alive."

Ning Zhongtian said respectfully.

Since he is Jiang Linxian's man, in addition to completing daily military affairs, another function is to provide intelligence to Jiang Linxian and supervise the officers of An Ningwei.

This is how the clique uses it. Have you ever seen any senior official writing something personally?
"Alive?"

Jiang Linxian narrowed her eyes slightly, with a hint of amusement at the corner of her mouth.

"Fifth Prince, do you know that only one person in this world can obtain that magic?"

That person is of course the Lord of Dragon Court, the current emperor.

Ning Zhongtian blinked.

Jiang Linxian did not avoid him when she spoke just now.

Immortal magic
He was shocked.

Although he was extremely curious, he didn't dare to ask Jiang Linxian.

Jiang Linxian looked at Ning Zhongtian, who was looking at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose, and chuckled, "It's not a big secret. There are at least eight hundred people in the capital who know about this, and only Cao Wei treats it as a secret."

Ning Zhongtian's eyes lit up.

I can actually hear it?

Jiang Linxian said calmly: "You should have heard about the fairy treasure."

Ning Zhongtian nodded.

Of course he had heard about the fairy treasure. He heard that it was the old mother of ten thousand ghosts from the Ghost Cult who stole the tribute to the imperial palace. This rumor had been circulating in the outside world, calling it a fairy treasure.

But what exactly is it?

No one knows.

He wanted to participate, but was strictly forbidden by Lei Yong.

"If you think your life is too long, you can go and give it a try."

Since even Lei Yong, who was fearless, was so afraid, Ning Zhongtian gave up the idea.

There are many people in the world who covet the immortal treasures.

But when they arrived in Qinghe, Jiang Linxian was the only one left. Why?
This was of course the work of the Lord of Dragon Court.

simply say.

The Qinghe area had been cleared out long ago, and a Jiang Linxian was sent to take away what the emperor wanted.

"Then do you know where the immortal treasure stolen by the Ten Thousand Ghosts Mother came from?"

This time.

Ning Zhongtian really didn’t know: “I don’t know.”

Jiang Linxian: "From the Ghost Sect."

Ning Zhongtian was speechless.

For the whole time, it was not the Mother of Ten Thousand Ghosts who stole the imperial court's things, but the imperial court that robbed the Ghost Cult's treasures.

"Let me tell you, that fairy treasure is not rare, it is just a spiritual guide."

灵引
Ning Zhongtian clicked his tongue in his heart.

That’s a spiritual guide!

The rare treasures that he could not afford even if he spent all his money were like cabbage in Jiang Linxian's mouth.

Jiang Linxian smiled: "What's interesting is not the spirit guide itself, but how it appeared."

"??"

Seeing Ning Zhongtian's curious look, Jiang Linxian did not hide anything and told him everything in one breath.

"I heard that this Lingyin was just an ordinary Tai Sui three years ago, and someone turned it into a Lingyin."

Ning Zhongtian’s eyes suddenly widened.

Become a spirit guide? !
This was something he had never envisioned.

Lingyin is a divine object that was born from nature and nurtured by absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. The fact that someone could create it artificially was really beyond his imagination.

Jiang Linxian: "Someone in the Ghost Sect has mastered this ability, and Your Majesty is also interested in it."

Ning Zhongtian took a breath of cold air.

It wasn't just the emperor who was interested.

There should be no one in the world who is not interested.

Why is there so much competition in the world?
It’s not about resources.

But if anyone masters that kind of ability, it would be equivalent to having endless resources, and establishing an eternal dynasty would be a piece of cake.

Ning Zhongtian finally asked the question in his mind:
"Master Jiang, you are not interested?"

From the beginning to the end, Jiang Linxian was involved in it, but she acted like an outsider.

Jiang Linxian sneered:
"Do you really believe that there is such a method in the world?"

Ning Zhongtian was speechless.

He actually believed what I just said.

Jiang Linxian raised her head slightly: "I don't believe these, I only believe in the sword in my hand."

Ning Zhongtian was solemn.

He bowed respectfully to Jiang Linxian and said, "I am grateful for your advice."

Say it.

Ning Zhongtian was about to turn around and leave.

But Jiang Linxian stopped him and said, "Keep paying attention to Cao Wei's every move. If it has anything to do with immortal magic, tell me immediately."

Ning Zhongtian paused:
"Master Jiang, didn't you just say you were not interested?"

Jiang Linxian chuckled: "What if it's true?"

"."

Ning Zhongtian wondered if he had been fooled.

As expected of Lord Jiang, his mind is hard to fathom.

However, I will do whatever my superiors tell me to do.

Ning Zhongtian responded: "Yes, Lord Jiang."

T-bar arsenal.

Li Rui rarely turned the pages of the book, but closed his eyes to carefully feel the difference brought about by the change in his martial arts technique.

"My own creation is indeed more suitable for me."

I didn't notice it when I was practicing White Ape Sword before, but now when I compare it with Changchun Gong, I can see the subtle differences.

After transforming into Changchun Gong, one can clearly feel that the true Qi in the body is flowing more smoothly.

Thinking back to when I was practicing this morning, my body seemed to have become a lot lighter and more flexible.

Just as Li Rui was thinking about it.

A young soldier knocked on the door.

"Sir Li, General Wei invites you in."

When Li Rui heard about Wei Ming's people, he put down his book and said, "Okay, I'll go right away."

He was in charge of grain, an eighth-rank official; Wei Ming was the general flag bearer, a seventh-rank official.

Moreover, they are all Ning Zhongtian's people, so Li Rui certainly has no reason not to meet them.

After a while.

He came to the house where Wei Ming worked in the military camp.

Walk into the lobby.

He saw several figures sitting in Wei Ming's room, and Li Rui saw Ge Hong at a glance.

He walked straight to the seat next to Ge Hong and sat down.

Then he asked quietly: "Brother Ge, what happened?"

Ge Hong lowered his voice and said, "I heard that there is a demon riot in the eastern suburbs, and there are quite a few demon beasts. This matter has been reported to Lord Jiang, and Lord Ning ordered us to go and suppress the demon riot."

Li Rui was shocked when he heard this.

There were more than ten officers present.

What scale of demonic rebellion was it that required the mobilization of so many people, even someone like him who was in charge of grain was drafted in.

Soon.

Wei Ming walked into the lobby in a hurry.

He glanced at the crowd.

He said in a deep voice: "Everyone, there has been a demonic chaos in the eastern suburbs. The number is still unknown, but there is no doubt that it is a lot."

"Lord Ning ordered us to go and suppress it."

"We are all paid by the Annan Army. If anyone dares to shirk or desert the battlefield, I will be the first to kill him!"

Wei Ming, who has always been kind to others, rarely shows the unique deterrent power of a soldier.

As Wei Ming said, this is the army and we are born to obey orders.

Everyone in the hall stared at each other:
"Yes!"

Since this is a matter of demonic chaos, no one dares to take it lightly.

Get ready to go.

In the darkness, in a forest so deep that you can't see your fingertips, several figures are running around.

Look behind you from time to time.

His eyes were filled with fear. Suddenly!

A young man's voice cried out in the dark night: "Second Uncle, save me!"

Zhang Hao, who was running in the front, didn't even look back and just kept rushing forward.

Soon a scream was heard from behind.

It seemed as if I could hear the sound of sharp claws sinking into flesh, "Puchi. Puchi".
Those who hear it tremble with fear.

"Damn, damn!"

Zhang Hao cursed in his heart. He had experienced this scene several times tonight.

He originally led the Zhang family to search for the traces of the Ghost Sect's evil spirits in the mountains near Qinghe according to Cao Wei's orders.

Just happened to find a cave.

But as soon as he walked into the cave, he found that it was not simple. There were actually more than a dozen monsters lurking inside, including a seventh-level monster that was comparable to the seventh-grade.

Not only the other members of the Zhang family, but Zhang Hao himself was frightened to the point of breaking out in cold sweats.

After fleeing all the way here, up to now, not a single member of the Zhang family who had followed him was left, and the two sons he brought with him were also killed by monsters.

If it weren't for these disciples diverting his attention, he would have been torn to pieces by the monster long ago.

Tonight's trip was a heavy loss.

Zhang Hao didn't dare to delay and ran as fast as he could.

There were too many monsters and he was completely powerless to resist. He could only run for his life.

suddenly!

Two figures appeared in the shadows not far away, and Zhang Hao shouted, "Get out of my way!"

I didn't even see who those two people were.

Zhang Hao raised the knife in his hand with his eyes bare and chopped at the two men.

But when he rushed to the two of them.

The pupils shrank suddenly.

Of those two people, one was an old man in a black robe, and the other one... Damn, he wasn't even a human being! !

Eight feet tall, humanoid.

The reason why it is said to be human-shaped rather than human is because this monster is covered with blue-black scales and has three heads on its neck, which is extremely terrifying.

"Ghost demon!"

It was really a disaster. The more you fear something, the more likely it is to happen. Zhang Hao's pupils shrank almost to the size of a pinhole.

I was about to turn around and run.

Then the huge ghost demon raised its right arm, created a strong wind and slapped Zhang Hao.

The trees are upside down and then upside down again.

Zhang Hao didn't know how many times he rolled, and finally stopped after crashing into more than a dozen trees.

I don’t know how many bones in his body were broken, and his eyelids struggled to open.

I vaguely heard in my ears: "Merge with me, this is your glory."

The demon opened its bloody mouth.

There was no trace of Zhang Hao anymore in the forest.

Eastern suburbs.

There was a rapid sound of horse hooves, at least a hundred or eighty horses.

"General Liu?"

Wei Ming pulled the reins and frowned slightly.

He thought he was quick enough, but he didn't expect Liu Chuan to be faster than him.

It's like knowing the news in advance.

Wei Ming turned over and got off the horse.

Liu Chuan took two quick steps and said, "General Wei, the monsters coming down the mountain have been temporarily contained by the people I sent, but to destroy them, we still need General Wei's help."

"It's your job."

Wei Ming and his group were talking as they walked towards the woods not far away.

This General Liu is Feng Yu’s man.

Although the two have opposing positions, Wei Mingke is not so stupid as to stand idly by and watch the monster.

Internal fighting is internal fighting.

When it comes to external affairs, An Ning Wei must be united.

This is also the consensus between Cao Wei and Jiang Linxian.

soon.

Then I saw the soldiers under Liu Chuan formed a tight square formation, trapping dozens of monsters inside.

The reason why the army is incomparable to the martial arts sects.

A very important aspect is to be able to form a military formation, with experts as the core, and to replenish people continuously.

Once surrounded by troops.

Even a martial arts grandmaster can be exhausted to death.

Wei Ming's eyes became fierce: "Form a formation and kill the monster!"

With the help of Wei Ming's men, the two sides worked together and succeeded after half an hour.

There were only eight or nine monster corpses left on the ground, which had been chopped to pieces.

In front of the army, monsters are equally vulnerable.

Several monsters took advantage of the chaos to rush into the mountain.

While Wei Ming ordered his men to clean up the battlefield, he looked at Liu Chuan and said, "Captain Liu, what happened? Why did these monsters come down the mountain to cause trouble for no reason?"

Liu Chuan shook his head: "I don't know the reason either."

He was still training this morning.

Feng Yu suddenly asked him to lead his troops to the eastern suburbs, saying that there was a monster.

He came here on orders.

As soon as he went up the mountain, he found that the number of monsters was much larger than he had imagined. Just as he was about to ask for help, Wei Ming arrived.

Wei Ming took a deep breath and said, "The monsters are ferocious, so we should eliminate all the evil. Let's search the mountain."

"Ah."

Liu Chuan nodded.

If we let it escape today, it will always be a hidden danger in the future.

It’s better to take advantage of the fact that there are many people around and make an effort to catch as many as possible.

The Annan Army has two responsibilities: one is to monitor the martial arts world, and the other is to suppress monsters.

duty-bound.

Leaving behind a few soldiers to clean up the battlefield, the two men led the others up the mountain.

They formed teams of several people in small flag units and searched in different directions in a surrounding manner.

The New Year is approaching.

Some of the dead trees have sprouted new buds and the ground is slippery.

The soldiers searching the mountain are all skilled in martial arts, so they walk steadily and nothing will happen to them.

There was a rustling sound of branches and leaves not far away, and faintly the sound of people talking could be heard.

Ge Hong and Li Rui, with six soldiers in a team, were carefully searching for the escaped monster.

Wei Ming specifically instructed that each team should be 20 meters long so that if a situation arose, the people around would be able to rush to support.

"Brother Li, what do you think of this monster? I always feel like something is wrong."

Ge Hong said in a low voice.

"There is indeed a problem."

Li Rui looked around vigilantly.

He has lived in Qinghe for so many years and has heard of several incidents of violence.

But there are reasons for everything.

Either a baby is born, or they have made enemies with humans and come down the mountain to seek revenge.

But there is no clear cause for today's chaos.

Very strange.

As the two were talking, a cry of surprise was heard: "There's a body!"

Li Rui and Ge Hong looked at each other.

Lead people to run to the right.
