After Wu Yidao rushed into Chen Village, Shen Qingfan, Mu Xiaoyao and others also rushed in. They could see waves of smoke and dust in the village and the collapse of houses in the village, and they were already anxious . At this time, the formation was broken by Fang Jie from the inside, how could they still hold their breath
Several people flew past like lightning, and the scene they saw was shocking enough.
Ninety percent of Chen Village has been destroyed. Except for the few rows of houses in front of the village, the back is all in ruins. Wu Yiyi rushed to the front, and the more he watched, the more frightened he became. After seeing a large area of scorched land and ruined walls behind, I became even more anxious.
When Wu Yidao saw that tired and weak familiar figure leaning against a broken wall to breathe, he immediately swept over.
"My lord, are you alright?!"
Wu Yiyi asked eagerly.
Fang Xie's face was frighteningly pale, and he seemed to be exhausted to the extreme. Even his slow shaking of his head looked a little difficult, which shows how tragic this battle is.
"fine… "
Fang Jie shook his head to prevent Wu Yidao from trying to help him up: "I'll rest for a while, I'm a little out of strength... I must have broken a few ribs, don't move me for now."
"What about Dazi?"
Wu asked together.
"gone."
Fang Xie sighed softly, even breathing carefully, Wu Yidao saw his appearance at this time, and knew that Fang Xie's injury must be serious. At this time, he really didn't dare to touch Fang Xie lightly, he didn't know where Fang Xie was injured.
Shen Qingshan and Mu Xiaoyao also rushed over at this time, and they were all at a loss when they saw Fang Xie like this. Fang Jie showed them a gentle and bright smile, and he was even in the mood to joke: "Do I look a little ugly? Don't tell anyone about today's matter, or I will be ashamed."
"You're already like this, and you're still poor-mouthed."
Mu Xiaoyao's eyes were red, and tears were about to fall at any moment.
"Dazizi is no better than me..."
Fang Jie smiled as if he was involved in the injury, and frowned slightly: "After I broke the formation, he couldn't kill me easily, and it was difficult for me to keep him. So I can only watch him retreat. The cultivation base is far stronger than mine, but I took advantage of it because I carelessly underestimated the enemy."
"Go and chase!"
Wu Yidao turned around and rushed out of the village.
Fang Jie didn't stop him, and looked at Wu Yiyi's back with complicated eyes.
"What the hell is going on with you?"
Shen Qing fan asked.
Fang Jie shook his head: "It's okay, if I break the formation a little later, it won't be necessarily the case. Da Zizai is the Great Heavenly Venerable of the Buddhist Sect. That guy's cultivation is really extraordinary. I guess he hasn't fully grasped it yet." Restore the previous strength, otherwise it would not be so difficult to kill me. In the Dalun Temple, he was able to deceive Prince Zhong Yang Qi and King Dalun Ming, from this point we can see this person's ability."
"he… "
Fang Jie was silent for a while and then said, "Compare yourself to a cicada."
"cicada?"
Shen Qingfan and Mu Xiaoyao didn't understand.
Fang Jie couldn't explain anything at this time, the injury was indeed serious. He just said slowly: "It's fine if it's a cicada that can only shed its shell once. What I'm worried about now is... He can shed his shell again and again, and every time he sheds his shell, he will return to his original state. If that's the case , this person can only be killed with one blow, otherwise as long as he is allowed to escape, he will shed his shell once... "
…
…
Fang Xie returned to the camp in a carriage, and the white lion followed beside the carriage. Although it didn't have as many emotions as humans, it could be seen from its eyes that it was worried about Fang Xie. After returning to An County, Fang Xie ordered the Xiaoqi School and the army to search the entire county for disciples of the Buddha Sect and then went back to rest.
"San Jinhou hasn't come back yet?"
After Fang Jie had a nap, it was already completely dark, and the women who were guarding beside him were relieved to see him wake up. Fang Xie's appearance before was really ugly, they had never seen Fang Xie so tired. Even in the last decisive battle with Luo Yao, Fang Jie had never been so weak after the battle.
"Not yet."
Mu Xiaoyao said: "However, San Jin Hou set off a firework signal 30 miles north of An County an hour ago, and our people have already rushed over. It is expected that he is fine. His self-cultivation level is fine. No matter how strong you are, you will be injured after all. Didn't you say before that Da Zizai's injury is not as serious as yours. "
Fang Jie nodded: "I'm not worried about San Jinhou. Although his cultivation level has never been fully displayed, I guess it is definitely higher than you and me. Since he chased him, he must have some confidence , he is not a reckless person. How can he be impulsive if he can make such a big move in the world?"
"What I'm worried about is... Sanjinhou won't be able to catch up with Dazizai."
Fang Jie sighed: "Before I came here, I never thought that I would meet such a person here. Our information should be correct. Meng Yuan's Kuoketai Mengge exterminated Buddha must have invited some kind of expert to take action." , otherwise Da Zizai would not take the risk to come to the Central Plains, no matter how conceited he is, he would not dare to underestimate the entire Central Plains rivers and lakes."
"Um."
Xiang Qingniu nodded: "I agree!"
It seems that although he didn't have any serious injuries, he was extremely weak because he almost lost his strength. He was pushed over in a wheelchair, accompanied by Shen Qing, fan Mu Xiaoyao, and the others who had been waiting for Fang Xie wake.
Xiang Qingniu took a look at Fang Jie and analyzed: "If Da Zizai is really as confident as he said, there is no need for him to win me over. What he said to combine the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism into one is actually just because of him. At this time, I still try my best not to fight to the death with me. Either his cultivation has not recovered, or he has been on guard against someone. There must be some other deep meaning for him to show up this time."
"What other meanings?"
Fang Jie thought for a while but didn't think of anything, and simply shook his head: "It is impossible for the Buddhist sect to rise again in Mengyuan. Da Zizai left the Dalun Temple and entered the Central Plains. The only explanation is that the Dalun Temple has been breached. Back then When you left the grassland, although the Meng Yuan Gold Family had the upper hand, it was extremely difficult to destroy the Dalun Temple. Now that Da Zizai has left the Dalun Temple, it shows that the members of the Gold Family have completely controlled the entire grassland, including the Big Snow Mountain."
"Buddhist disciples have entered the Central Plains in large numbers..."
Xiang Qingniu was a little worried and said: "With the Buddhist sect's thousands of years of background, there are naturally many masters among them. What I am worried about is that these Buddhist sect disciples will be accepted by some forces in the Central Plains. If this happens, we will not have to face many Buddhist sects in the future." The people of the sect. If the Buddhist sect wants to protect itself, it must rely on the forces of the Central Plains. It is impossible for them to make a fortune by themselves, and it will only arouse the common hatred of the Jianghu people in the Central Plains."
"And those forces that want to participate in the game of world hegemony need the assistance of a large number of experts. People from the Buddhist sect and those forces hit it off..."
Fang Jie suddenly thought of something, and then smiled: "This is also a good excuse for me."
Xiang Qingniu didn't understand: "What excuse?"
Fang Jie said with a smile: "Jin Shixiong has been running the Northwest for many years. It is impossible for him not to know that Buddhist disciples entered the Northwest. It is possible that he has raised many such Buddhist disciples under his command. After all, having such a neighbor in the north makes people feel uneasy. If you are exhausted, it may not be worth the loss if you use troops, but now is a good opportunity."
"Understood!"
Xiang Qingniu finally understood Fang Jie's meaning: "While Jin Shixiong is fighting fiercely with the imperial court, you plan to send troops to the northwest?"
"The side of the couch."
Fang Jie said: "No matter what, Jin Shixiong will have a hard time spreading the news of Jin Shixiong's collusion with the remnants of the Buddhist sect. At that time, the entire Central Plains rivers and lakes will be against him. I use this as an excuse to send troops to the Northwest. Good thing. After all, that iron ore is what I need, and if I can get it back, I will try not to spend money to buy it."
Xiang Qingniu didn't realize the rascal in Fang Jie's words at first, but actually nodded his head: "That's right!"
"Won't you buy what you can get back?"
It took a while for Xiang Qingniu to understand the meaning of these words, and he couldn't help shaking his head and said, "Is being shameless and rascal the most basic quality to be a superior person?"
…
…
Beihui Road
Qingfeng City
It is only two hundred miles away from Huangyang Dao'an County. Although Qingfeng City is not the closest big city to the place where the two rivers and mountains divide, the prosperity here is much more comfortable than those border cities. There has not been any war here, so whether it is a commoner or an official, life is quite comfortable.
Ever since Zhong Xin, Governor of Beihui Road, officially announced that Beihui Road would take over the control of the Black Banner Army, Qingfeng City has become more prosperous than ever. The people in the past were always worried that the Governor and the Black Banner Army would fall out. In that case, once the Black Banner Army went south, Zhong Xin really had nothing to resist.
Wu Yiyi walked on the street, looking carefully at the buildings in the city.
"Did you find anything?"
Wu Yidao stopped at the door of a commercial firm, pushed the door open and went in, sitting on a stool with his chin propped up to take a nap. He hadn't seen Wu Yiyi for many years since he was sent to Qingfeng City by Huantong Tianxia. So when he suddenly saw the proprietor appear in a daze, one can imagine the surprise.
"Master Hou, why are you here?"
The shopkeeper asked quickly.
Wu Yiyi waved his hands and said: "There is something to do, let all the people in the city move. I need you to help me find out if there is any cool place in Qingfeng City, which can escape the heat. The more The more you can't relax in remote and inaccessible places."
He told Chen Ya's special appearance, and the shopkeeper quickly wrote it down.
"I live here. If you have anything to do, just go upstairs to find me. Remember, the more remote the place that is not easy to be found, the more carefully you should check. This person's cultivation is a bit weird. Once you find out where he is , come and tell me immediately!"
The shopkeeper quickly responded, thinking that who is this big man, it was actually the Marquis of Labor who approached him personally? You must know that Sanjin Hou has gradually stopped managing the affairs of Huotong Tianxia, and all the big and small things are left to cronies. Therefore, most of the shopkeepers of local commercial firms only meet with them before they are sent. once.
Wu Yiyi did not explain anything, and went upstairs to rest.
An hour later, a clerk came in hurriedly and whispered something into the shopkeeper's ear. The shopkeeper was taken aback and didn't dare to delay, so he hurried up to the second floor... A moment later, Wu Yiyi followed with a serious expression. The boy went out, and found something weird after half an hour.
Wu Yidao knelt down and looked at the huge shell in front of him, and couldn't help but stare: "It's really such an evil method..."
On the ground, a humanoid shell fell limply on the ground. Xiang Qingniu's previous worries had become a reality. The man could see that this shell really couldn't just be replaced once. Wu Yidao's face became more and more serious. He had chased for hundreds of miles and caught a huge cicada.
