"Bird?" Aunt Zhu wiped her eyes. "Can it change its appearance?"
He Lingchuan smiled and said, "If it is the external form of the Thousand Illusions Master, and it also possesses some of the abilities of the original Master..."
People have marked the talent in their titles, “Qian Huan”.
"That's true." Aunt Zhu stood up. "Now that it's gone, the changes in the Yao Palace will soon be over, right?"
"No." He Lingchuan shook his head. "The chaos in Tianshui City and Yao Country has just begun!"
Everyone wanted to know what happened next, but at this moment four riders came galloping in from the darkness, and Wanqi Feng said, "Xiao Qi is back."
Xiao Qi is the captain of this team. His surname is Xiao and he is the seventh child in his family. As time goes by, everyone just calls him "Xiao Qi".
But when the knights came closer, everyone saw that there were six people on the four horses.
Three of them were injured to varying degrees, the worst of all was Xiao Qi, whose stomach was almost cut open. He held his intestines in his hands, and his companions supported him from behind. He had been riding wildly all the way, and had suffered a lot.
Fortunately, the other person had already fainted.
"Lingguang!"
In fact, He Lingchuan didn't need to say anything, the medicine ape had already jumped down with a small medicine basket, first stuffed two pills into Xiaoqi's mouth, and then began to check and rescue.
The injuries of the others were also treated after they landed.
He Lingchuan personally handed over a bottle of elixir: "What's going on?"
This was the team he sent out, six men and six horses. As a result, on the return journey, two horses were missing and the captain was seriously injured.
Wanqi Feng, Wang Fubao and others also changed their expressions, because Xiaoqi and others were also black armor soldiers with high combat qualities.
I have followed my lord through life and death dozens of times, but which time was I injured so badly or ran so miserably?
Qingyang, Zhao Song and others were all in the palace. What other forces in the eastern suburbs of Tianshui City could cause such casualties to them?
He Lingchuan looked closely at the wounds on Xiaoqi's body and felt that they looked familiar, which moved him a little.
"My lord, we were attacked on the way back from our inspection of Yongquan Villa!" The black-armored guard who escorted Xiao Qi back was called Xia Qi, a fellow villager of Xiao Qi and also from Bailie. "He looked like a human, but not a human. He was seven or eight feet tall, with a gray robe covering his face, four fingers on his hands, and a tail behind him. Oh, and his skin was gray-blue with very fine cracks."
He swallowed his saliva and said, "This monster moves very fast. It killed one of our horses the moment it appeared. No matter how many cuts we make on it, the wounds will heal in a blink of an eye. Xiao Qi was seriously injured just to protect me. He used his own horse as bait and told us to leave quickly, saying that this thing might be a demon puppet and he had to report it to you immediately!"
"The monster was busy eating the horses and had no time to chase. We just ran all the way back." The five of them looked embarrassed. They had been with the lord for so long, and had never been in such a mess before?
Aunt Zhu also moved over and started:
"Ashmona!"
Xia Qi's description of the enemy's appearance was very detailed. It knew as soon as it heard it that this was Ashmona, the escaped demon puppet of Cao Wenda, the master of Honglu!
When the Master of Honglu and Dong Rui had a big showdown, Dong Rui was the better one in the end. He was the first to see through Cao Wenda's core skills. As a result, the latter's main demon puppet counterattacked on the spot, killed Cao Wenda and then fled.
So many days have passed, and Aunt Zhu has been wandering around the outskirts of the city, but has not found Ashmona's whereabouts.
Unexpectedly, when He Lingchuan was about to evacuate, it ran out and hurt people.
"Where were you in danger?" Aunt Zhu remembered that Dong Rui had always wanted to capture Ashmona and study him carefully.
"Qingniuping," Xia Qi said, "We drove past the edge of the ping, and the monster jumped out from the dense forest."
Aunt Zhu understood: "It's beside Taoxi River."
Due to the expansion of development in the east of Tianshui, the entire eastern suburbs are covered with flying yellow soil, and there are few good forests. Because it is close to the water, the forests along Taoxi River have been preserved.
At this time, Lingguang looked up and asked the Spider Queen for help: "Auntie, can you use your spider web to make a filter for me?"
Aunt Zhu extended her spinning device and sprayed a small area of dense spider web with precision. At the same time, she did not forget to ask He Lingchuan: "Why did Ashmona run back to Taoxi? He has been freed, so where can he not go?"
Why do you have to stay near the outskirts of Tianshui?
"What attracts it?"
"Taoxi? What's in Taoxi?" He Lingchuan's eyes flickered. "That's where Cao Wendao and Dong Rui fought. In a duel between demon puppet masters, demon puppets are used... Oh!"
He said almost in unison with Aunt Zhu: "Flip-skinned blenny!"
There was usually no ghost in that place, except for a big guy buried underground - the demon puppet of the owner of Honglu, the flipping mullet that was blown to death by Dong Rui.
Aunt Zhu stamped her feet and said, "Oh, I should go to Taoxi to squat on it normally!"
It didn't expect that Ashmona would return to that battle site many times.
He Lingchuan asked Xia Qi: "What's going on in the villa?"
"The palace guards have all been driven into the city, leaving only a dozen people to guard Yongquan Villa."
The capital city was in turmoil. When Zhao Song's men who were originally stationed at the villa heard the commotion over there, most of them rushed back, leaving only a few to guard the gate.
As expected, He Lingchuan slapped his thigh and said, "Great, leave two people here to guard the wounded, and the rest follow me to Taoxi."
"Ok?"
Changed the itinerary at the last minute? Everyone was a little surprised, but he was the lord, and he had the final say.
……
The distance from Youhu to Taoxi is very short. When Qingyang led his men to intercept He Lingchuan, they also arrived in the blink of an eye.
The scenery of Taoxi remains the same, the stream has frozen, but the dark pine forest rustles in the night wind, as if a monster will jump out at any time.
Everyone was on high alert, ready for Ashmona to suddenly attack from any corner and hurt someone again.
However, this scene never happened, and no one knew what Ashmona was doing.
This thing seems to like wandering around.
Aunt Zhu left two Blood Fang Guards to guard the woods, while she and He Lingchuan and others went to the stream.
The big hole created by the explosion of Uranus Scale is right here.
The government once sent people to dig soil and fill the land, but the refugees nearby could not bear the hunger and secretly came over to cut fish and meat to fill their stomachs, but they were all poisoned to death.
Since then, no one has come here anymore.
Everyone stood at the edge of the pit and looked down. The body of the flipping blenny was still there, but its size had obviously shrunk.
Most of the fish's body was gone, revealing its heavy white bones.
Aunt Zhu pointed with her sharp claws: "The edge of the pit bottom has been dug up, and the fish bones are all bitten."
When everyone looked, they saw that the thick fish bones were covered with white teeth marks.
Wang Fubao shuddered subconsciously: "Ashmona treats this place as a restaurant?"
"It and the flipping blenny are both demon puppets transformed by divine blood. Since they were both created by Cao Wendao, perhaps there are other similarities in the transformation materials." He Lingchuan's eyes flashed, "It seems that Ashmona has been staying in the suburbs just to eat this fish corpse. It was seriously injured in the battle, and eating this flipping blenny should be very good for it."
However, the flipper was too big, and even with Ashmona's appetite, he had only eaten two-thirds of it so far.
When he said this, he became lost in thought.
Aunt Zhu and others knew that he was lost in thought again, so they did not disturb him.
After a while, He Lingchuan's gaze refocused and the corners of his mouth curved up.
He took a look at the soul-stealing mirror in his arms and said, "Oh my, what bad idea have you come up with?"
The master's expression was just a sudden inspiration.
Looks like someone is going to be in trouble.
Aunt Zhu also asked, "Do you want to set a trap to catch Ashmona? Time is a bit tight."
It is unknown how long the battle in Yaowang Palace will last. After the battle, Qingyang and others probably thought of Yongquan Villa and He Lingchuan.
"It won't take a lot of time." He Lingchuan looked at the remains of the big fish at the bottom of the pit, "Auntie, can you carry this flipping blenny?"
If someone else asked Aunt Zhu to carry the corpse, she would kick him away. But since He Lingchuan asked, he jumped into the pit to measure it himself, and then said, "No problem. Two-thirds of this big fish has been eaten. I will remove some bones to make it smaller."
Wanqi Feng suggested: "Why not use a net to catch it? We have more than a dozen horses that can pull it."
Plenty of horsepower.
"No need. Pulling it with a horse will leave marks on the ground." Aunt Zhu went to turn over the fish carcass. "Just tell me where you want to move it to."
He Lingchuan turned his hand and pointed in the direction of Yongquan Villa:
"Zhuangzi."
……
The Black Armored Army was efficient. Half an hour later, the group left Yongquan Villa again.
This time they walked out through the main gate, empty-handed and in a swaggering manner.
Oh, no, Wanqi Liang and Wang Fubao also packed up all the remaining aged wines in the wine cellar, while He Lingchuan took away a lot of candied fruits and dried fruits, which were all made from the fruits produced by Yongquan Villa. They were of high quality and Lingguang and Guiyuan liked them especially.
After walking seven or eight miles north, the feeling of having a thorn in the back finally disappeared. Before He Lingchuan could speak, Aunt Zhu said, "That thing has followed us here, so we're going back."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. No one wanted to fight at this critical moment.
He Lingchuan took out a bag of dried white apricots and everyone came to share:
"The battle in Yao Palace should be over, right?"
This coup d'état tonight is just the opening act of a series of good shows.
The greatest chaos that has not happened in two hundred years is about to befall the Yao Kingdom.
Aunt Zhu was eager to try: "So what should we do now?"
"Of the thirty-six strategies, choose the best one."
"What do you do?" Aunt Zhu had never heard of the Thirty-Six Stratagems.
"Let's go." The book bag was not dropped. "First find a place to stay and collect the Emperor's Flowing Juice."
This is the largest Emperor Liujiang in over a hundred years. He can leave his pursuers behind by several body lengths. He will first receive the Emperor Liujiang safely.
"And then?" Aunt Zhu asked, "You don't want to go back to Jucheng, do you?"
"Remember the route Bai Ziqi took to enter Yao Country? We will do the opposite this time."
Aunt Zhu exclaimed: "Are you going to Beihai?"
Okay, I'm free anyway.
The northern end of the Golden Plains is the shore of the North Sea.
"No." He Lingchuan smiled, "Let's go to the Upside-Down Sea and look for Master Qianhuan."
Aunt Zhu was happy: "Okay, this is good!"
It didn't want to return to Jucheng right now. It had only killed a few minions on this trip with He Lingchuan, which was not satisfying at all!
Master Qianhuan's upside-down sea must be a lot of fun.
