Chapter 10 Chapter VII Zhen Guo Mansion

The Wei River, with a total length of 818 kilometers, originates from Niaoshu Mountain in the southwest of Weiyuan County, Gansu Province, and flows eastward into the Yellow River. Its downstream is the fertile Guanzhong Basin. On the banks of the Wei River is Chang'an, the capital of Kyoto, the most prosperous international city in the world. Although it has become a little deserted due to the political decline, there are still bustling crowds on the streets. This city follows the old system of Daxing City in the Sui Dynasty and has been continuously built. It has become more magnificent and magnificent for hundreds of thousands of years.

The south and north central axes of the whole city are symmetrical to the east and west on both sides, and the chessboard-like streets are wide and straight.There are drainage ditches on both sides of the streets in the whole city, and elms are planted, the avenues are straight, the trees are shaded, and the city appearance is very spectacular. There was a man so handsome that he couldn't bear it, carrying another young man in white who was handsome enough to be beaten <self-proclaimed>, he walked through the west gate step by step and came to the bustling business district of the capital. more attention.

The monster Qingfeng blushed and muttered in a low voice: "I'm so ashamed!" "Yes, it's too embarrassing!" I nodded in agreement. "Boss, you still have the nerve to say it." He turned his head and gave me a hard look, "If you hadn't insisted on going to the 'Fat Sheep' gambling house before leaving, and betting on it, which is called 'Back' Ben's combat operations, we don't have to be so ashamed at all." "Why are you like this! Didn't I wish you to exercise well? Look at yourself, you are as thin as a monkey, your master, I will feel heartbroken. If someone sees it, who would think that I deliberately abused small animals? .” I laughed.

"You abused me on purpose at all." Qingfeng was furious, "Boss, you are so proud that you lost all five hundred taels of silver. In order to save travel expenses, the distance of more than two thousand miles made me I came here with your back on my back. Fortunately, I am a monster. If I were a human being, even your ancestor, the Yellow Emperor, would not be blamed for your tired belching. You think you are very light!" "Hey, my good Qingfeng, it's a big deal, I'll buy Tangtang for you later." I continued to laugh. "I'm not a three-year-old kid."

"Don't be so stingy. Here, look over there. There are two towers, right?" Since the tricks were useless, I hurriedly diverted his attention. "One is a blue brick pagoda in the style of a pavilion, with a solemn and simple shape. The other pagoda is obviously a square brick structure with dense eaves. It looks very beautiful and exquisite. That is the world-famous Dayan Pagoda and Xiaoyan Pagoda. It is said that many demons and ghosts are sealed inside. Also, there is the Da Ci’en Temple.” I pointed in a direction with my hand, “The Da Ci’en Temple was built in the 22nd year of Zhenguan in Tang Dynasty. It is the most famous, grandest and most magnificent Buddhist temple in Chang’an. It is said that if you sincerely pray in that direction, most of your wishes will come true.”

This sentence seems to be very effective. Qingfeng immediately put his hands together, made an inexplicable gesture, and said reverently: "Pangu, Kuafu, the ancestors of the age of mythology, bless my master to burp as soon as possible, I will soon suffer No more!" I was so angry that I kicked his ass, "Bastard, this is a Buddhist temple, why are you worshiping Pangu? Also, you bastard dare to curse me, be careful I will let you repay the world!" "What is the Buddha? I have lived tens of thousands of years longer than your Buddha." Qingfeng curled his lips, "Boss, would you believe this?"

"Of course I don't believe it." I took a breath of the warm air on the street that smelled like sycamore trees, "Elysium, heaven, and hell simply don't exist. Even the so-called reincarnation is nothing more than human beings' restraint on themselves. .” The atmosphere between the two fell into a subtle silence. The palace city in Chang'an is located in the middle of the northern part of the city, which is the palace area.To the south is the Imperial City, where the Central Government Office is located.Outer Guocheng guards the imperial city and palace city from the east, west and south sides, and is a residential and commercial area for civilians and bureaucrats.We walked around slowly and walked into the outer Guocheng, the noble residential area where high-ranking officials and wealthy businessmen are located.

Soon, a tall and luxurious mansion appeared in front of my eyes, and the destination was here. "Our one million taels of silver is right there." I pointed, "Do you know where that is?" Qingfeng shook his head. "That's the residence of Cai Yuanqin, the current general of Zhen Guo. He is one of the most powerful minions of Anlu Mountain." I said leisurely, "The Cai family is not as good as the previous generation. His ancestor, Cai Rufeng, was very famous. character. Hey, would you like to hear a story?" "don't want." "Then I'll talk about it reluctantly." Although I asked for Qingfeng's opinion, I obviously didn't take his opinion into consideration and recalled it on my own.

A casino, but not an ordinary casino.According to legend, this casino has existed since the beginning of human history.No one knows its origin, but occasionally some knowledgeable and wise men think it is a relic handed down from ancient times. Of course, whether this is true or not, the facts can no longer be studied, but this casino will win people wealth and honor, but it is real. The casino was built deep underground, with a total of ninety floors.On each floor, there is a bewitching beauty demon smiling at you, looking at you with her eyes, and asking you a difficult problem that you never expected.

It is said that when you walk out of the 90th floor, the last and most beautiful little demon girl will give you five million taels of gold, a priceless peerless weapon, and her ecstasy kiss . For thousands of years, there have been self-confident passionate youths, as well as demons and goblins, challenging this casino. Unfortunately, there are very few who can escape unscathed, let alone those who can successfully walk out of the Shenzhou Gate on the 90th floor. up. Almost every one of those few people whose strength and luck are close to monsters has become a big man who can affect the situation at that time.

A long time ago, a survivor who quit the casino used his experience to write a "Casino Complete Strategy White Paper". At the beginning of the book, he shouted: the casino is a magical place. disappointment.But what's more, it makes people despair and die... die?Yes, the eighty-eighth floor of the casino is such a place! An uninvited guest broke into today's necromancer. He is a man, about twenty-five years old, with a faint smile on his handsome face.But that kind of smile is confident but not blind, and people will have great interest and affection for him at first glance. "This is the room of the dead." The cute female demon leisurely polished her nails with a file. She knew very well that the room she was guarding was the only one among the ninety rooms that no one had dared to visit so far.Because the difficulty of passing the level is too difficult, too harsh and abnormal. Every human being or monster who was unfortunate enough to enter this room, when they heard their request, most of them would fall to the ground in fear.And those with better concentration will sigh, turn around and leave without looking back. Of course, she believes that this person will too. "In this room, there are thirty Necromancers, and you have to survive for three days under their attack. Of course, if you fail the challenge unfortunately, the only ending will be death." The little demon girl said slowly. "Is it enough for three days?" The man asked lightly. "Yes, so, you'd better act like a smart person and quit obediently." The little demon girl said without raising her head. "Then, please teleport me in." "What?" The little demon girl was so shocked that she stopped moving her hands. She looked at the man whose head seemed to be amused, and shouted at him without any ladylike demeanor: "Didn't you hear what I said clearly? Or you I don’t even know how terrifying the Necromancer is?!” "I know." The voice was still so calm. Of course he knew, even an idiot knew that the Necromancer was a powerful devil, a devil who was followed as a god by the Necromancers. It is said that every time a necromancer is reborn, 10,000 necromancers are needed as offerings, so in the legend, the necromancer gathers the strength of 10,000 necromancers. Although this is a bit exaggerated, and the Necromancer imprisoned here has also been deprived of wisdom, but their destructive power still exists. If these thirty Necromancers escaped to the outside world, to put it bluntly, they would be worth tens of thousands of human troops.And this man actually wants to challenge this room!He's crazy? "You don't understand at all! Let me tell you this, the one who can come out alive is a fairy. Are you a fairy?" For some reason, the little demon girl suddenly became irritable. "No." From the man's throat, there was still this calm voice, but there was a constant persistence. "Then why don't you quit?" "I want to go in." The tone of the answer is so natural. The little demon girl yelled angrily: "Okay, you stubborn guy. Turn your hair up, don't turn into a wandering ghost and scare people everywhere." She waved her arms lightly, and a soft light surrounded the man. In the blink of an eye, the man disappeared into the strong beam of light. Time passed like this in the silent casino. It's been five days, there's no way he's still alive... The little demon girl thought about it, feeling a little lonely in her heart. To be honest, she really likes this man, that kind of courage, that kind of confidence, and that kind of smile, all of which make girls crazy.But it is such a man, it is such a pity that he is so stupid to seek death among the dead! Just as she was sighing, suddenly, she felt a flow of energy across her mind. It was a piece of information, a piece of information that she almost forgot. "No! Impossible!" The little demon girl exclaimed in surprise. This kind of information was only told to me once by my master in the distant ancient times.He said that when this information appeared, it not only represented the death of thirty undead emperors, but also represented the birth of a great man or a demon! "What's your name?" The little demon girl asked the man gradually appearing in front of her, suppressing the shock of her inner thoughts. "Cai Rufeng." The man bit the bandage with his mouth and wrapped it around his bruised body, saying indistinctly. "Cai Rufeng!" The little demon girl became excited for no reason.What kind of storm will this man, whose strength is closest to that of God, stir up in this ancient and tired world?Ha, I'm really looking forward to it. Tang Wude nine years, September. Eastern Turks privately tore up the "Border Agreement" secretly signed with the Tang Dynasty years ago, secretly gathered heavy troops, poured all the power of the whole country across the border, and fought against the Tang army in Yinshan.The army dispatched by Datang in a panic was defeated, and this event was called the East Turkic Crisis in history. After the battle, the Eastern Turkic Army entered the land of no one, and within half a month, they captured the entire northern territory of the Tang Dynasty. Just when the Eastern Turkic Army aggressively shortened its front line and prepared to cross the Weishui River to carry out a lightning raid on the southern capital Chang'an City, a man dressed in white with a faint smile killed more than 100,000 Eastern Turkic troops. blocked on the mountain road. He successfully pinned down the Eastern Turkic Army for three days and three nights, until Emperor Taizong Li Shimin ordered the Tang Army to spread out, personally took Fang Xuanling and other six generals, rode to the temporary bridge by the Weishui River, and asked Jieli to come out across the river. dialogue. Under his maneuvers, Datang and Jieli Khan finally formed a bridge alliance, and then the Turks withdrew their troops. If anyone happens to turn to this page of history, most of them will find such an interesting fact.After the Battle of Weishui, the Eastern Turkic Army's national strength has never recovered.All the senior commanders in that battle, without exception, all resigned from the military soon after.Tuli, the cousin of the Eastern Turkic Khan, even heard that when a general resigned, he only said this: "I don't want to command any wars related to the Tang Dynasty, because I will meet that terrible man! He is a An unkillable monster, if I have to describe him in one word, I can only say he is a devil, a devil who always smiles..." Cai Rufeng!This man who always had an indifferent smile became a well-known hero after this battle.It was also on this day that he had a nickname—Blood God. "Is that Cai Rufeng still alive now?" Qing Feng, who didn't want to hear it at first, actually asked with insatiable interest. "Didn't you just want to plug your ears?" I glared at him. Qingfeng laughed a few times, "I've heard of the Casino of Life and Death, and I've been there. I'm just curious about that freak that can come out of the Necromancer. As far as I know, with human abilities, it's impossible to compete with thirty The Necromancer who only lost his mind got along for three days and three nights, and they lived in peace and were not eaten. Besides, he actually spent five days killing the thirty Necromancers! A simple human being, he is a bit too strong to be perverted.” "Don't worry, that freak died long ago. Before Tang Taizong Li Shimin died, he specified that he would be buried with him, saying that he was underground and needed a loyal guard to help him open up the territory. But everyone knows that he was afraid The strength of my own national generals is too strong, and will threaten future generations." I smiled slightly, "The so-called emperor has been like this since ancient times. I just don't know if Yang Guifei and An Lushan will be dragged to be buried with him when he belches today." But after thinking about it carefully, after Cai Rufeng was buried with him, his descendants went smoothly, and all of them became generals of the town and became hereditary positions.It's really cunning enough, but I don't know if this is one of the conditions he negotiated with the Xiongxiong Emperor at that time. Suddenly, he realized that he had been standing in front of Zhen Guofu for a long time without knowing it, and he had already attracted the attention of the guards. I scratched my head, then walked forward and said, "Little brother, please send a message to your master for me." The guard stared, looking like a dog looking down on people, "Did you bring a post?" "No. However, I have something more useful than posts." I said leisurely, "Tell your master, someone has brought the anti-drug beads." At night, the heavy night shrouded the sky, and the guest room area of ​​Zhen Guo Mansion was quiet, without the lively atmosphere that a mansion of a famous family should have. Qingfeng and I sat at the table, looking at each other quietly. "Ready?" I asked. "It's ready." Qingfeng replied briefly. "Then let's start." I squeezed my handprints hard, "Contract seal, borrow soul." Immediately, the area five feet around me was filled with a shocking demonic aura.Those evil spirits seem to be unable to be effectively controlled, flowing in the air, everywhere, and even a lot of them are evaporated by themselves when they wave their hands. If someone who knows a little bit of magic sees it at this time, they will be shocked, and then they will curse.He would be surprised when a human with such a terrifying evil spirit appeared in the world. However, I'm afraid he will still scold me bloody. Human beings with such powerful demonic power can't control the demonic energy at all. It's too wasteful to let them disappear into the air for nothing! However, what I do in the future may make people who see it vomit blood. "Qingfeng, grind the ink." I lifted my sleeves, took out the pen and inkstone, and poured in a certain amount of cinnabar. With a bitter face, Qingfeng rubbed the cinnabar while mixing water, and muttered in a low voice: "I am a great demon god who is well-known in the three worlds, but I can be reduced to the point where someone grinds ink, and I can't resist, hate it!" "What are you mumbling about, kid?" I looked up and glared at him. Qingfeng's body trembled reflexively, and he buried himself in pain. I am not a leisurely literati, so of course I don't know how to write any calligraphy characters. What I want to draw are spells, which are commonly known as ghost painting charms. As a promising and powerful monster expert and spell expert, I naturally know all the "spell" drawing methods.But it is a pity that drawing any "spell" requires sufficient mana, so that the spell will have its due effect. This point, I have been unable to do it, after all, I am a very rich expert and I don't have any mana.It wasn't until I subdued Qingfeng, the servant, and made a life-and-death contract with him, that I solved the problems that plagued me all my life. I borrowed his demonic power through "borrowing the soul", and then used a special method to refine these demonic powers into mana, and drew the "art" in one go. After all, I know very well that no matter how tyrannical the servant is, even if he can borrow the evil spirit, those things are not his own after all. Therefore, these painted spells can be used as my last line of defense. It is my life-saving capital, and it is also a necessary thing for me to travel at home and go out. I worked hard to slowly convert the demon power into mana, and slowly drew patterns that I didn't understand very well on the yellow paper, thinking to myself, no wonder these things are called ghost drawing symbols, they look so unbearable! "Boss, why is the boss so talkative this time, and entertained us in such a luxurious room?" Qingfeng looked around and asked suddenly. "Do you know what a hostage is?" I didn't look up, "We are. I didn't see that in the afternoon, Cai Yuanqin smiled like a fox, making it clear that if her daughter can't be cured, you are also the ones buried with her." Looks like two." "Buried with you? Just rely on those human beings who have no power to restrain chickens?" He laughed dumbfounded. "It's not certain. There are countless capable people and strange people in the world. Maybe there are people who are smarter than me and better than you." I drew another picture leisurely. Qingfeng was a little surprised, "Boss, you are so humble." "Average, third in the world." I smiled, squinted my eyes and stretched, "This Zhenguo Mansion is really big." "Not only is it big, but I always feel that something is wrong." Qingfeng frowned like me, which made me laugh out loud, "Qingfeng, it seems that you have been with me for a while, and you are getting smarter!" I paused, stopped laughing suddenly, and looked serious, "Anyway, you have to be careful. Although we didn't feel the evil spirit, this town is definitely not simple." As soon as the words fell, Qingfeng's face trembled slightly, "Boss, someone is coming. They are surrounding this room, do you want me to send them away?" "No need." I put the drawn talisman paper into my arms, "It should be that old fox Cai Yuanqin came." Sure enough, it was Cai Yuanqin who came, and he brought a group of guards into the door, without saying a word, he shouted at the people beside him: "Take it down for me!" His guards immediately rushed towards us like tigers and wolves. . "Slow down!" I calmly stopped Qingfeng who was about to attack, and opened the fan with a "snap", and asked, "Major General Zhen Guo, what kind of law have we committed? How come it ended up like this.” Cai Yuanqin snorted coldly, "This old man has been in the officialdom and battlefield for decades, and no one has dared to lie to me. You are not small!" I said "oh" and said slowly, "You mean, the anti-drug beads I gave to the general are fake?" "Not bad!" He looked at me like he really was a heinous liar. "What evidence do you have?" I remained unhurried. "Evidence is still needed? My daughter's condition has not improved at all." Cai Yuanqin roared angrily. I frowned, "Please tell the general, it is indeed a genuine anti-drug bead, but it can only detoxify. Is the method used by the general wrong?" "Impossible. According to the imperial doctor's method, the old man crushed the so-called anti-drug pearl, mixed it with thousand-year-old snow lotus to make a bowl of thick soup, and fed it to my little girl." Qingfeng and I looked at each other.Depend on!The rich are really extraordinary, what a waste! Although this method is not correct, it is indeed very effective. In fact, not only is it effective, it can even be said that the woman should be invulnerable from all poisons.But why is there no improvement?Isn't it poisoned? I thought for a while, then nodded and said: "Although I don't know the crux of the problem, is Gui Qianjin really poisoned?" "The imperial doctor and many doctors all judged that it was poisoning." I frowned again, "That's strange, General, can you let me see your daughter?" "Okay. But I warn you, if my daughter dies, you don't want to live." Cai Yuanqin signaled the guards beside us to keep an eye on us, and then strode out. I smiled and said to myself: "Whether we want to live or not, this is something you don't need to worry about."
