Zhu Zheng said: "We are all here for the sake of justice, so there is no need to be polite, brother Hao. If you need help, just come over. If it is urgent, you can also directly tell the old man in Hulu Alley."
He personally sent this "Hao Xinghua" out.
—
The day before the full moon night, Shi Hao came to the place called "Xia Jiuliu".
He spent money to buy a copy of "Jianghu Dibao" and sat quietly in the corner, reading each page one by one.
Compared with the last time, this Jianghu Gazette is obviously much thicker. From this, we can know that the various incidents that have occurred in Daxing City and its surrounding areas in recent days are far more than usual.
The Qingxiong Gang inflicted heavy damage to the Xuande Sect and the Baijian Sect, but they also apparently underestimated their fighting spirit, and suffered heavy losses themselves. At least three sixth-grade warriors were killed, a fifth-grade master was seriously injured, and countless lower-grade warriors died.
The Xuande Sect and the Baijian Sect are on the verge of destruction, but they are still alive and kicking. However, it is basically certain that even if they can survive, they will inevitably be removed from the "Three Gangs and Six Sects".
Judging from various signs, the Qingxiong Gang has reached a dilemma. If they do not continue to encircle and suppress the Xuande Sect and the Baijian Sect, all their efforts in the past few days will be in vain. If they continue to encircle and suppress, although the Xuande Sect and the Baijian Sect have suffered heavy casualties, the remaining people have not lost their fighting spirit. Instead, everyone is ready to die, and there is a faint sense of "the army of mourning will win."
There are also some people in the martial arts world who are dissatisfied with the situation and are willing to join the Xuande Sect and the Baijian Sect at the risk of their lives even in this situation.
This put the Qingxiong Gang into an awkward situation where they couldn't fight or retreat.
There were many martial artists, one killed another, and another killed another... These were listed one by one in the Jianghu Gazette. These simple words were full of blood and gore.
The Tiandi Gang still did not make much movement. Although it was one of the "three gangs" in Daxing City, it seemed to be invisible.
The Jinlong Sect is not so bad. Although it is one of the three gangs and six sects, it is actually closer to a guild than a martial arts sect. There are occasional fights, which are recorded in the martial arts gazette, but they are all insignificant scraps.
There was also a group called the Divine Eagle Sect, which was qualified to be included in the “Three Gangs and Six Sects” only two months ago, but has now been destroyed.
That day in Floating Cloud Temple, Chen Yan'er introduced the "Three Gangs and Six Sects" to him and Xiaoyan. There were two sects that he couldn't remember at the moment, and the Divine Eagle Sect was one of them.
This Jianghu Gazette only recorded the Jianghu events in Daxing City and its surrounding areas. However, what more people were talking about at this moment was the battle situation in the distance... That was actually the outcome that everyone had expected.
The rebel army fighting against the barbarians in Changbai Mountain suffered a crushing defeat!
That battle was extremely brutal. The anti-barbarian volunteer army in the Changbai Mountain area suffered heavy casualties at the hands of the barbarian army. Fu Shiyuan was also seriously injured. He barely broke out of the encirclement with the desperate protection of a group of warriors. Only more than a thousand people were left, and they turned to Liaodong.
The entire rebel army collapsed, and the barbarians killed people everywhere and blood flowed like a river.
At the same time, there were also some small teams that were scattered while fleeing, and they were rolling and crawling along the way, constantly spreading their influence.
In fact, no matter how many people held out hope, such an outcome was already expected by everyone... A centipede is still alive even after death, and no matter how weak the barbarian army is, it is not something that a righteous army can resist.
The first bird to stick its head out gets shot. The rebel army in Changbai Mountain is the target that the Barbarian Court must suppress at all costs, and no one knows how many Barbarian Court masters they have sent out.
But on the other hand, with Fu Shiyuan taking the lead, at this moment, "rebel parties" emerged in all the major provinces. Although no team has been able to surpass the Changbaishan righteous army in momentum so far, they are also unable to withstand the full suppression of the barbarian army.
But it has already blossomed in all directions, one wave after another, majestically and powerfully, rolling up a rolling wave called "history".
It can be imagined that what will happen next is that the barbarian army will be everywhere trying to put out fires, while the anti-barbarian wave will only grow bigger and bigger, creating a chaotic scene.
While Shi Hao was flipping through the Jianghu Gazette in his hand, he was listening to the discussions of the martial artists around him.
This is the "lower nine classes" and those who hang out here are originally low-level gangsters, so they have no scruples when they speak.
Many people have even begun to discuss the time of the fall of the Barbarian Court without any hesitation.
After listening for a while, he put down the newspaper in his hand and left.

Yueyaer began to settle Shi Hao's bodyguard fees.
In fact, it was originally agreed that Shi Hao would protect her until after the full moon night.
However, although it is only the day before the full moon night, Yueyaer will move out of Qionghua Villa tonight and lead his troops to the palace at the foot of Longshou Mountain.
Grandma Ba seemed to have assigned her a new task.
Even Yueyaer, one of the Eighteen Thunder Chasers, was not brought along, probably because the Eighteen Thunder Chasers were warriors affiliated with the Yueketai clan and were originally the guards of her brother.
The person who replaced Shi Hao and became Yueyaer's personal bodyguard was the barbarian woman named "Kelian" who carried a two-handed broadsword on her back.
Although it was not the appointed day yet, Yueyaer, as she was the daughter of a wealthy family, was generous enough to give him money for sixteen days.
Eight hundred taels of silver... Shi Hao had never had so much money before.
For him, holding the silver note of nine hundred taels made him feel like a rich man, but for Yueyaer, she paid it without blinking an eye.
All I can say is, a little rich woman is a little rich woman!
In fact, Shi Hao really didn't do anything during these days. He just watched her from behind the screen when she was taking a bath, and guarded her on the floor next to her when she was sleeping.
She is called a bodyguard, but after the last assassination, the entire Qionghuayuan Palace has increased its guard. Moreover, the Guiji Sect attacked her because they were afraid that she would track down the Leopard Sect. With the collapse of the Leopard Sect, the Guiji Sect no longer had any need to kill her.
Shi Hao feels that making money has never been so easy, so hanging out with rich women is the best way to make money.
"Daxing City might be a bit chaotic tomorrow!" Yueyaer said to him seriously before leaving, "For safety, you'd better leave Daxing City first."
Shi Hao nodded seriously: "Miss, you should take care of yourself too."
Yueyaer smiled and said, "Actually, just call me Yueyaer!" She turned around and waved her hand, "Leave Daxing City early and come back in a few days."
Outside the Yuan Palace, an army that had been mobilized from somewhere was waiting for her. Although there were only a few thousand soldiers, Shi Hao could see that there were at least a dozen "thousand-household officers" and more than two hundred "hundred-household officers" among them, and the rest were also brave warriors in the army.
These are the elite troops selected from an army of tens of thousands.
Shi Hao left the Qionghuayuan Palace. It was almost dusk.
He walked all the way to the main entrance of Chongxian Gate in Daxing City and entered the mountain gate.
The mountain gate was open because it was getting dark and some tourists had started to go down the mountain.
After entering the magnificent Taoist temple and going around to the back door, I wanted to go deeper, but was stopped.
"I'm looking for Zhuo Mulan, Zhuo Sanren!" Shi Hao said.
Soon a Taoist boy came in to report, and after a while, Zhuo Mulan came out in person and welcomed him in.
"Although the guarding is tighter than the last time I came here, there seem to be fewer people!" Shi Hao looked along the way.
Zhuo Mulan said: "The Immortal Sect intends to abandon this place. At that time, only a small number of people will be arranged to stay here and treat this place as a daily landscape."
Shi Hao was surprised and asked, "Chongxian Sect wants to give up Daxing City? Why?"
Zhuo Mulan whispered, "I'm not too sure either. The Immortal Sect seems to want to withdraw its main force to the south, and many of the branches in the north have also begun to evacuate."
Shi Hao's mind quickly moved, and he began to understand the ambitions of Chongxian Sect.
From the fact that Chongxianmen hid the Sealing Stone, we can know that Chongxianmen and Manting are already at odds. There must be smart people in the top management of Chongxianmen. Although they relied on the Manting to become the so-called "orthodox Taoist sect in the world", they saw that although the Manting was big, it was already full of holes, so they could not help but make other plans.
By concentrating the top experts in the south, we can avoid direct confrontation with the Barbarian Court, and then take advantage of the chaos in the world to further expand our power.
Arriving at the pavilion where the two phoenixes were hovering on the eaves, the beautiful woman threw herself into his arms, followed by an uncontrollable gasp.
Shi Hao first used the Butterfly Flower Finger to give her more pleasure, and then picked her up by the waist, but this time he did not go to Yue Jiao's room.
After the lovemaking, the female wanderer snuggled in the arms of her lover, who was almost ten years younger than her, and whispered, "Do you have any news about Yue Jiao?"
Shi Hao held her in his arms, caressing her gently, and said, "Don't worry, I already have a clue, and I will definitely bring her back tomorrow night."
"Oh, right, those immortal materials you wanted!" Zhuo Mulan stood up, leaned out from the inside of the couch, and took out three items from the cabinet at the head of the couch. She handed the three items to him, and then embarrassedly grabbed the quilt to cover the part that was shaking in front of him just now.
Shi Hao opened the three boxes one by one.
—A piece of emerald green, crystal clear scale, about the size of a palm, with sharp edges like a knife.
—A strange grass, its leaves are red, blue and purple, radiating strange light, beautiful and flawless.
—A Ganoderma lucidum that looks like a child sitting on a carriage. After it is opened, it actually runs around in the square box.
—Snake's reverse scales, three-color strange grass, and chariot and horse grass!
Chapter 107 "You are mine!
With these three immortal materials, plus the Fantasy Sea Spirit Fruit that he already had, Shi Hao now had all four immortal materials he needed to advance to the next level.
This also made him sigh. Fuyun Temple was once a famous Taoist sect, but it was cut off from obtaining immortal materials just because it was unwilling to rely on Chongxian Sect.
And he easily got the immortal materials he needed simply because he "had connections in Chongxianmen".
If it was the immortal materials needed for the fourth or fifth grade, it would be difficult to obtain. But in fact, the immortal materials needed for the sixth grade and below were not in short supply in Chongxian Sect.
The authentic status of Chongxian Sect is achieved not only by the support of the Barbarian Court, but also by its monopoly on immortal materials.
Shi Hao silently observed himself. It was almost a month since he last left Yuanshi Cave Heaven.
During this month, his Jujing Liuzhu Jue and Moxiao Wuji Gong were constantly improving.
As long as you keep them balanced in the body, let them counteract and promote each other, you can practice all the time.
However, even so, there is still some gap in cultivating them to the extreme.
Shi Hao estimated that in about ten days, he should be able to cultivate them to perfection.
But at least tomorrow, that won't be possible.
Of course, this is shocking enough.
During these ten days, he would also set aside some time to let the two kinds of internal forces, Taoism and magic, flow in his meridians, alternating between positive and negative, to create that mysterious profound energy.
However, the harvest was limited and not much was gained.
Just leaving them alone, letting them run slowly on their own, maintaining a natural state, his internal strength was constantly improving.
However, if he had to let them collide inside his body, he would be exhausted after half an hour at most. In the process, not only would his power not increase, but if it lasted longer, he would probably break his own meridians.
However, that kind of "mysterious energy" can only be generated in such a fierce confrontation.
After careful calculation, the materials needed for the next advancement are currently missing: "Blood of the Immortal Child" and "Heart of the Mother Killer".
He still didn't know where to get the Mother Killer's Heart. As for the Blood of the Undead Child, at the moment, he could only get the Blood Dark Undead Child.
Since the blood child rebellion several decades ago, the various sects of the demon sects have almost stopped training undead children. And it is impossible for him to learn the blood erosion technique on purpose, capture a child, train him into an undead child, and then take his blood.
Although this method is indeed the style of the Demon Sect, he himself cannot do it.
He calculated in his mind that tomorrow night might be an opportunity to kill the Blood-Dark Undead Child... Of course, it was not easy to do such a thing.
The Xue'an Immortal Child is a killer who is good at hiding in plain sight, and Shi Hao does not have enough information to ambush him.
In any case, the progress of collecting materials has exceeded my expectations.
Then Shi Hao held the beautiful female wanderer in his arms and thanked her sincerely with his butterfly flower finger.
At this moment, the female wanderer had completely let go of her body and mind, and she felt extremely happy. In order to repay this happiness, she also repaid him with all her heart.
It was just very strange, they themselves didn't know why, but while they were doing it, they ran to Yue Jiao's room...

After leaving the Chongxian Sect, Shi Hao walked alone on the streets of Daxing City.
The moon tonight is almost full, hanging in the night sky. The bright moonlight it emits covers the surrounding buildings, giving a dreamlike feeling.
Only in some alleys candles had been lit and paper money had been burned, and lotus lanterns were floating down the river.
The tradition of ancestor worship on the 15th day of the seventh lunar month dates back to ancient times. It became the "Ghost Festival" a thousand years ago due to the incorporation of Taoist legends.
Taoism calls this traditional festival the Zhongyuan Festival. In Taoist scriptures, there are three great officials: the Heavenly Official, the Earthly Official, and the Human Official, collectively known as the "Three Great Officials."
Among them, the Earth God governs the underworld. Every mid-July, he will open the door to the underworld, and all ghosts will leave the underworld. Those with owners will go home to visit their loved ones, and those without owners will wander around the human world... This is the origin of the Ghost Festival.
However, the same Zhongyuan Festival is celebrated on July 14th in the south and on July 15th in the north.
The "Ghost Festival" in Daxing City is on July 15th, but tonight, some people have already started lighting candles and releasing lotus lanterns.
—Lu returned to Fuyun Temple and went to the room where he lived in the west wing.
He packed up the three immortal materials, the Serpent's Reverse Scale, the Tricolor Wonderful Chi Grass and the Chariot and Horse Ganoderma, together with the Fantasy Sea Spirit Fruit, then jumped to a high place and hid on the railing on the side of the beam.
The Taoists in Fuyun Temple respected him very much, so he was not worried about them sneaking in. However, there were many children in Fuyun Temple, and if these immortal materials were sold outside Chongxian Gate, they might not be sold anywhere even if they cost thousands of taels.
After hiding them, he inserted Yingye's murderous knife sideways under the mat at the head of the bed. He lay on the couch and closed his eyes to rest.
The moonlight enveloped the window, and this side of the windowsill was silvery white.
The internal force generated by the two techniques, Jujing Liuzhu Jue and Moxiao Wuji Gong, still flows slowly in his body, complementing each other.
Slept all night and nothing happened.
During the day, he went outside for a walk, and when he came back, he still hadn't seen Xu Xiaoyan.
This made him feel a little uneasy... Calculating the distance, Xu Xiaoyan should be coming back.
Shi Hao was not worried about her at first. After all, Xiaoyan was alert and had the magic weapon "Xiankong Brick" in her hand. If she encountered a strong enemy, she could escape several miles away.
