When Meng Yuanyun and others climbed out of the ruins, the overall situation was settled.
Li Daotian, who was covered in blood and depressed, was thrown in front of everyone by Ye Qingxuan.
Situ Lingfeng, who fought against Zhu Wusheng, did not show up. Compared to Ye Qingxuan, this "jue knife" didn't like socializing even more, so he just disappeared.
Heroes from all walks of life, black and white, stood up to congratulate each other.
Regardless of whether these characters are sincere or false, Ye Qingxuan has given enough face for the sake of the imperial court.
After this battle, the entire city of Luzhou City has been almost abandoned, only the outermost city wall can still maintain its original state. After deliberation, Ye Qingxuan decided to keep the two local tycoons, Cen Shining and Lei Li, to sort out and reorganize Luzhou City. The defense of the state city.
Wang Dong and Li Hao reported that the reinforcements from Yangzhou City were approaching, enough to help Cen Lei and the others gain a firm foothold in Luzhou City and prevent the White Lotus Sect's army from going north.
the next day.
After packing everything up, Ye Qingxuan originally planned to personally escort Li Daotian back to Luodu with Meng Yuanyun, but unexpectedly, Cen Peng, the first disciple of "Halberd Monster" Xing Aotian, "Silver Halberd General" suddenly threw off the reinforcements and arrived a day early Luzhou City, and brought a bad news.
Taking advantage of the "Dragon King" attacking Qizhou in the north of Pohai, Cen Peng led a group of troops to support the vacancy of Luzhou City. Under the leadership of Jiang Jiyue, the masters of the White Lotus Sect joined forces with several masters of Yingzhou to secretly attack The "Halberd Monster" in Yangzhou City Xing Aotian.
Even with the desperate protection of his disciples, the "Halberd Monster" Xing Aotian was seriously injured and fell into a coma. Now the overall situation of Yangzhou City is only supported by Xing Aotian's sister Xing Yan, and the White Lotus Sect is aggressively invading. The situation is extremely dangerous .
There are not a few soldiers in Yangzhou City, but the key point is the lack of masters to sit in the town. Xing Aotian's fall like this has indeed hurt morale. If it is not handled properly, the city may be lost.
If Yangzhou is lost, even if the entire Jianghuai area is occupied by the imperial court, it will not be able to make up for such a major loss.
After a little discussion, Ye Qingxuan decided to go to Yangzhou to sit in the town immediately, and the task of escorting Li Daotian was given to Meng Yuanjun, and Guo Yunfei, Monk Sanbao and others escorted him.
Considering Li Daotian's importance, Ye Qingxuan suppressed his resentment even more, went to Patriarch Li Yang and Ji Lingjun, promised in person that he would not care about the previous conflict, and asked the two to escort Li Daotian back to Luodu with a group of gangsters.
It was rare that Ye Qingxuan made a guarantee, Patriarch Li Yang and Ji Lingjun were secretly happy, and hurriedly agreed.
This time the matter was urgent, Ye Qingxuan didn't even take Wang Dong and Li Hao with him, he took the small boat alone, drove it overnight, and rushed to Yangzhou City.
…
fluttering...
Xinying grabbed a fresh fish that Ye Qingxuan handed over, spread his wings and flew high, and fell into the rocks on the shore to enjoy the delicious food.
Ye Qingxuan carefully read the newly delivered message, and with a pinch, the letter paper turned into powder and dissipated into the air.
The letter contained not only the latest information about Yangzhou Mansion, but also a piece of information that Ye Qingxuan asked to inquire about before.
Yangzhou Liujia.
Liu Qingyan's Liu family.
There was only one piece of news that the Liu family didn't know what happened this time. The whole family withdrew from the city and shrank to the villa. A large number of servants were dismissed, leaving only the family members of the Liu family to take care of their children for generations. It has been more than a month since now.
The old owner of the Liu family never showed up, but half a month ago, it seemed that there was a funeral held in the villa, but it was only half a day, and it ended hastily, without even having a night watch.
This piece of information greatly increased Ye Qingxuan's curiosity.
The sudden appearance of Liu Qingyan a while ago had trapped her for a long time, almost allowing "Heavenly Master" Fu Yao to escape. Although it was later proved that Fu Yao was dead, the most mysterious "Slanted Moon and Seven Star Sword" disappeared. .
Ye Qingxuan therefore ordered people to inquire about the news of the Liu family, and to find out whether there was any connection between her and "Ming Youzi", or whether there was any connection between the Liu family and "Ming Youzi".
But judging from the evidence we have now, it seems that there is something wrong with the Liu family...
Ye Qingxuan thought for a while, and finally decided that this trip to Yangzhou should be done to solve the doubts in his heart.
…
Hundreds of thousands of catties of bronze organ suddenly fell down like a hammer, Li Muru didn't care to hide, turned into a cloud of blood mist, and fell apart suddenly, and the ancestor of Wolong next to him screamed wildly, exhausting all his strength, Then rushed forward.
Boom!
The bronze organ smashed down, the ancestor of Xianlong barely rushed out, and several subordinates who couldn't escape were smashed to pieces by his powerful impact.
But these few people are already considered lucky, because more subordinates were completely smashed to death by the mechanism, without even bones.
The tunnel, which was more than ten feet wide, was tightly pressed by the bronze mechanism at this time, and only a trickle of water flowed out along the only gap.
A mist of blood squeezed out from the gap, and slowly condensed into the appearance of Li Muru.
At this time, the faces of the two of them were pale, and they could only breathe desperately.
Thinking of the many traps encountered along the way, even Li Muru was horrified, and said coldly: "Old Xianlong, thanks to you boasting that you are familiar with the trap passages here, you almost still here... hum , I really shouldn’t have believed your words, and my subordinates have suffered heavy losses.”
The ancestor of Xianlong smiled, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Li, you must come with this bronze dragon tower, and this dragon tower has been passed down for thousands of years, and the mechanisms I have mastered are only the sixth level outside, and the last third level has already Lost, now we are able to come here, we are lucky, you can rest assured. As for those subordinates... Heh heh, they will be killed sooner or later anyway, how can we allow outsiders to know our secrets?"
Li Muru laughed happily and nodded in agreement.
Turning around, the two of them are now on top of a bronze hall, with an open space under their feet, and a nine-curved dragon bridge in front of them. Under the bridge, a river made of mercury has been flowing continuously for thousands of years under the ingenious operation of the mechanism. .
Opposite the Jiuqu Dragon Bridge, there is a huge three-story cloud platform surrounded by railings carved with rare and exotic animals. In the middle is a huge dragon chair. The carvings on the back are like a giant dragon hovering and sleeping.
This hall, whether it is a brick or a tile, or carved beams and painted buildings, is all cast in bronze. It is the Dragon God Hall in the innermost part of the Bronze Dragon Pagoda.
The open space in front of the Jiuqu Dragon Bridge is the place for all officials to kneel and worship. At this time, there is nothing but the bronze statues of the nine dragon sons.
The nine sons of the dragon, Bixi, Chiwen, Pulao, Biyan, Taotie, Yazi, Suanni, Jiaotu, and Pixiu, the ancestor of the fairy dragon looked excited, and touched the statue one by one with trembling hands, and finally couldn't bear it. Zhu Chang sighed: "One thousand years, the descendants have waited for a thousand years, and today they finally found the relics of their ancestors. There is hope for the revival of the Ao family."
Li Muru's face darkened, and he said lightly: "Brother Ao, the poisonous mercury is very heavy here, let's hurry up..."
"Okay." Ancestor Xianlong also knew that he should not stay for a long time, and quickly took out a bunch of colorful palm ornaments from his arms, which were the stolen "Nine Treasures Dragon Son".
