Nightwatcher

Daoist Priest Bailian really wants to know which masters of the rivers and lakes Daoist Jinlian chose to be the holders of the book fragments. She is a colorful lotus with a high status.

Knowing some inside information, it is said that the fragment holders selected by Daoist Jinlian are all rising stars with great fortune. They will be an important reliance for Daoist Jinlian to eradicate the evil thoughts in the future.

But the problem is, these young people are all rising stars, no matter how strong they are, how strong can they be?

Unless everyone is of the fourth rank, Bai Lian doesn't think these young people can stop the Taoist priests who are possessed by the Dizong, can stop the head of the Black Lotus, and can stop the troops of the Wulin League.

However, Daoist Jinlian seems to have great confidence in the "Dishu Tiandihui" he formed.

In all parts of Kyushu, there are countless talented young people, like crucian carp crossing the river, it is really impossible to guess who the young man Jin Lian is looking for, Bai Lian is both apprehensive and expectant.

Inurong Mountain.

In the middle of the night, Cao Qingyang, who was wearing a purple robe with layers of cloud patterns embroidered with gold thread, left the compound alone and walked towards the back mountain.

There is a man in Houshan who is the same age as Guo.

The moonlight was dim, and the shadows of the trees were whirling. He was rustling along the mountain path, and the hem of his purple robe was stroking the weeds by the roadside.

Cao Qingyang, over forty years old, has regular facial features, sharp eyes, and a perfect fit for the word "positive" on his face.

Regarding this leader, there has always been a popular rumor in the Jianghu of Jianzhou. It is said that the former leader was obsessed with physiognomy. Once, by chance, he met Cao Qingyang, who was still a member of the Wulin League at that time.

Overjoyed, he bluntly said that this son has an extraordinary appearance, and he is a unique post-earth appearance. The sky is round and the place is round, and the earth is full of virtue. Those who have the post-earth feature have perfect virtue and can lead the pack.

So he was accepted as a disciple, taught him a whole body of martial arts, and passed on the position of the leader of the Wulin League to him.

Regardless of whether physiognomy makes sense or not, the former leader's vision is indeed good. In terms of martial arts attainments, Cao Qingyang is the number one martial artist in Jianzhou and the leader of the martial arts list.

In terms of professionalism, Cao Qingyang led the Jianzhou Martial Arts League and had not made any major mistakes for more than ten years. The order in the Jianghu Jianghu was stable, and he even cooperated with the government to arrest some fugitives in the Jianghu.

After trekking through the mountains and forests for a quarter of an hour, a huge cliff appeared in front of my eyes, and at the bottom of the towering cliff was a stone gate.

The stone door is tightly closed, the door is covered with rotten leaves and weeds, it seems that it has been dusty for endless years and has never been opened.

The moment he stepped out of the forest and saw the cliff, Cao Qingyang keenly noticed two red lanterns lit up on the top of the cliff, "shone" on him, and then went out.

That is Inu Rong.

Cao Qingyang came to the side of the stone gate, bent his back, and said in a calm and respectful voice, "Old Ancestor, I will win the nine-color lotus root for you and help you break through the barrier."

There was no response from the door.

Cao Qingyang continued: "Since the Battle of Shanhaiguan 20 years ago, Dafeng's national power has been weakening day by day, and the imperial court's control over the states has declined sharply. Disasters continue to occur in each state, and the disciples and grandchildren have a premonition, and the chaos has fallen."

An old and ethereal voice finally sounded from inside the door: "The emperor of Dafeng is still practicing Taoism?"

Cao Qingyang nodded: "Yes."

"snort!"

A cold snort came from the crack in the door.

Cao Qingyang continued: "Recently, there was a news from the capital that the Zhenbei King guarding the border, in order to attack the second-rank Dzogchen, slaughtered 380,000 people in Chuzhou City, and was beheaded by a mysterious strong man. State City."

Immediately said the news briefly.

"Good cut!" The voice responded.

"Afterwards, in order to cover up the crime, Emperor Yuan Jing killed the chief envoy of Chuzhou who went to Beijing to seek justice, and shielded one of the main culprits, Duke Huguo."

"The princes in the court don't care? The prison doesn't care?" The voice was a little low.

"Yes."

After Cao Qingyang's voice fell, he suddenly felt that the ground under his feet trembled slightly, the stone gate also trembled, and the dust fell rustlingly.

On the cliff, the two lanterns lit up again, staring at him coldly.

"Old ancestor calm down, there is still a follow-up to this matter," Cao Qingyang said hastily.

The trembling sound of the mountain stopped, and the two red lanterns on the cliff went out immediately.

Cao Qingyang let out a breath, his majestic and upright face showed obvious relaxation, and then said:

"Later, a silver gong broke into the palace, captured Duke Hu, denounced the emperor's crimes, denounced Zhenbei King's crimes, and beheaded the two princes involved in the case at Caishikou."

Inside the stone gate, there was no sound for a long time. After half a quarter of an hour of silence, a vague sigh came: "Since ancient times, ordinary people are the most hateful, and since ancient times, ordinary people are the most worthy."

Cao Qingyang thought for a while and explained: "Old ancestor, that silver gong is not dead."

"oh?"

This time, there was a trace of curiosity in the low and misty voice.

"This person's name is Xu Qi'an. He is a watchman. He was a rising figure in Jingchao last year. If the ancestor wants to hear it, his apprentice and grandson can talk to you. Don't worry about me."

There was a slight smile in the old voice: "The old man has been self-proclaimed for hundreds of years, and he doesn't know the world, the rivers and lakes of Kyushu, except for listening to you nagging every once in a while, other times, it's very boring."

Cao Qingyang sat cross-legged in front of the stone gate, and said sternly: "In recent years, the most interesting thing in the arena is Feiyan, and the most amazing person in the court is this silver gong named Xu Qi'an."

At the moment, let's talk about the rise of Xu Qi'an in the year of Jingcha, one by one.

The Wulin League can dominate the Jianghu of Jianzhou, making the government fearful, and the imperial court acquiesces, so naturally it has its unique features. What makes Cao Qingyang most proud is not the masters of the alliance, nor the eight thousand heavy cavalry.

It's the intelligence system he built.

In Cao Qingyang's view, the intelligence system composed of traffickers, gangsters, and knight-errants is not as good as that of Wei Qingyi's beater. But when it comes to the underlying information and intelligence, it is even better.

From cracking the tax and bank case in prison, to beheading the superior, from the Sangbo case to the Yunzhou case, to the recent Chuzhou case, Cao Qingyang can explain it in detail.

Jianzhou spent a lot of effort on this Xu Yinluo.

Of course, it's also because what that person did was too shocking and high-profile, so it's hard not to know.

The ancestors in Shimen listened patiently, listening to a small person's promotion path, and actually listened with gusto.

"Interesting, interesting, if this son does not die young, Dafeng will have another peak martial artist." The old voice said with a smile.

"There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that this son's talent is not inferior to that of King Zhenbei." Cao Qingyang nodded, not feeling that there was anything wrong with the old ancestor's evaluation.

"Compared to King Zhenbei, I would rather see a martial artist named Xu appear." The old voice sighed:

"Warrior breaks the ban with force, the more lawless he is, the purer his thoughts are, because what the martial artist cultivates is himself, King Zhenbei is a pure martial artist, so he can go to that height, but it is precisely because of this that he will commit atrocities that massacre the city , Therefore, since ancient times, ordinary people are the most hateful.

"The kid surnamed Xu is also lawless, and he only wants to have a clear conscience. Therefore, if he beheaded his superiors for an irrelevant girl, how many rebels will he stand alone for a moment of enthusiasm?"

"Beheaded more than two hundred rebels." Cao Qingyang replied after recalling for a moment.

"You just said that he alone blocked 10,000 rebels." The old voice said.

Cao Qingyang's face twitched slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Some said it was eight thousand, some said it was five thousand, and some said it was ten thousand or twenty thousand. There are too many rumors, I misremembered."

The old voice said "hmm" for a while, and continued: "Including this Chuzhou massacre case, everyone is afraid of the imperial power and dare not speak out, but he dared to stand up and get angry at the crown. Therefore, since ancient times, a man has the most deserved. "

Cao Qingyang bowed his head: "Remember the teachings of our ancestors."

After a pause, he mentioned the business of this visit again: "Dizong's nine-color lotus is in Jianzhou, and it will mature in a few days. I want to seize the lotus root and help our ancestor break through.

"It's just that the head of the local sect has fallen into the devil's way. It's not enough to believe it. The disciple and grandson have stepped into the third rank with half of their feet. There is still half a foot that can't step over. I'm afraid I won't be able to fight against the head of the local sect. Please help me."

"There are three sects of Taoism, heaven, earth and people, and the capital of the past dynasties is the second rank. How can I help you?"

"Old ancestor, what came was just a clone, at most a third grade." Cao Qingyang added.

From the gap in the stone gate, a drop of clear blood squeezed out and hit Cao Qingyang's eyebrows.

In the early morning, the sun shines on the earth, bringing strong heat.

Xu Qi'an woke up in time, his head was as big as a bucket, and he felt a little uncomfortable. While yawning, he muttered in his heart: "It's been a long time since I visited Fuxiang, I miss you so much."

Dress neatly, wake up Zhong Li who is lying on the bed not far away, and call her to wash her face and brush her teeth together.

The two squatted under the eaves, holding a bristle toothbrush, brushing their mouths with foam.

"The truly top-notch magic weapon is not the formation that is imprinted in it, but the magic weapon with spirit."

At this time, Zhong Li suddenly said something thoughtlessly, then tilted his head and looked at him silently.

Xu Qi'an frowned, and scolded: "If you have something to say, just finish it, give me a look, and I'll understand it?"

"oh oh"

She mumbled "Oh" twice, took a sip of water, spit out the foam, and said softly: "The knife that the teacher gave you has the airs of a peerless magic weapon, but it doesn't have the corresponding spirit."

Xu Qi'an's heart moved: "Then?"

Zhong Li seriously suggested, the sound was like a wind chime under the eaves, crisp and soft: "You must get the lotus seeds, it can turn weapons, and make your sword give birth to a weapon.

"A weapon with a spirit will become a real killer. The top magic weapons in Kyushu, such as the Zhenguo Sword and the Book of the Earth, all have spirits.

"That is to say, the birth of the weapon spirit is the basis for entering the ranks of the top magic weapons in Kyushu. If you can have the weapon spirit, the saber that Teacher Jianzheng gave you will no longer be so invincible."

That's right, why didn't I think that lotus seeds can enlighten all things, so naturally they can also enlighten my saber Xu Qi'an's heart skipped a beat.

He estimated in his heart that if the black gold long sword gave birth to a weapon spirit, and then cooperated with his "Sword of Heaven and Earth", it would not only be invincible at the same level.

It is very possible, very likely to kill the enemy across a realm.

When he is really promoted to the fifth rank, he may be able to fight a fourth rank martial artist. Well, even if the fourth rank is not good enough, it is not difficult for the ordinary fourth rank.

By analogy, if he was promoted to the fourth rank, wouldn't he have the best attack and kill skills in the same rank?

What Xu Qi'an lacks most now is real combat power, and weapons are also a kind of combat power.

Zhong Li rinsed his mouth, and said in a soft voice: "After the birth of Qi Ling, the knife is not a dead thing. If you warm and nourish it every day, it will recognize its master and others will not be able to use it. You have fragments of the book from the earth, what should you do?" clear."

Zhong Li is awesome. Xu Qi'an can't wait to go to Jianzhou. With a straight face on purpose, he said in a deep voice, "How do you know that I have fragments of the land book? How do you know that I am going to protect Lianzi? Are you spying on me to pass on the book?"

"?" Zhong Li looked at him stupidly.

Xu Qi'an wiped the corners of her mouth, spread the foam from her palm on the top of her head, and turned the already messy things into chicken coops.

He was triumphant and looked at his masterpiece with a smile.

"I, I want to wash my hair"

Zhong Li looked at him innocently, not knowing why she was treated like this, and walked away aggrieved.

Haha, if it was the princess, she would pounce on me and grab my face right now. Xu Qi'an let out a proud "hmph".

The familiar heart palpitations hit at this juncture.

Xu Qi'an frowned, dropped the bristle toothbrush, returned to the room, grabbed the fragments of the book from under the pillow, and checked the information.

[Nine: Everyone, set off for Jianzhou immediately, the situation is not good. 】

Chu Yuanzhen immediately replied: [Four: What do you mean the situation is not good, Taoist chief, what happened in Jianzhou? 】

[Nine: I won't be able to tell in a while. There are a lot of enemies this time, and the situation is very bad. You'd better come here immediately and have an interview. 】

The enemy is a little bit this time? Xu Qi'an immediately raised his eyebrows.

With Zhong Li's words, he is bound to win Lianzi, because it will allow him to have a peerless magic weapon, instead of just harvesting a cute concubine.

"I'm leaving immediately, um, I'll take you back to Si Tianjian first." Xu Qi'an grabbed Zhong Li's arm and ran out of the room.

Coincidentally, seeing Li Miaozhen coming out of the room with a flying sword in hand, there was no Susu by her side, maybe she was in the dark.

"I'll send her back to Sitianjian." Xu Qi'an said.

"En." Li Miaozhen nodded.

Zhong Li, who is plagued by bad luck, has to be careful even in normal times, if he is on the battlefield

Riding on the little mare and taking Zhong Li back to the Si Tianjian, Xu Qi'an was about to meet up with Li Miaozhen when a bold idea suddenly popped up in his heart.

Yang Qianhuan is a fourth-rank warlock, his attack and killing skills are not as good as martial arts, but he is very good at playing formations, and he also has magical weapons

Seeing Zhong Li going down the stone steps and about to disappear in front of his eyes, Xu Qi'an hurriedly shouted: "Senior Sister Zhong, Senior Brother Yang is at the bottom, right?"

Zhong Li turned her head: "Yeah"

"Senior Brother Yang? Senior Brother Yang?" He shouted into the ground, his voice rumbling.

"It's so noisy, why are you calling me?" Yang Qianhuan's dissatisfied voice came.

"I want to ask my brother for help"

As soon as Xu Qi'an opened his mouth, Yang Qianhuan interrupted and refused: "If you don't help, get out!"

Xu Qi'an looked at Zhong Li helplessly, Zhong Li shook his head, expressing that he was powerless.

He thought for a while, sighed, and said loudly:

"I'm going here to keep one man in charge. I'm going here to kill all Xiaoxiao and frighten the Jianghu. I'm going to Jianzhou, the holy place of martial arts, just to have a word with Jianghu in Jianzhou. : Everyone here is rubbish."

After finishing speaking, a white shadow flashed in front of Xu Qi'an's eyes, Yang Qianhuan stood with his hands behind his back, and said in a deep voice, "Let's go!"
