Wu Dongfang raised his spirits and flew through the air quickly. He made such a big circle to the east and wasted a lot of time. In this special period of critical situation, he was in enemy territory and returning late would definitely cause trouble for the Jin clan. Everyone was extremely anxious.
Things always have priorities, even if the Jin tribe is in a hurry, there is nothing they can do about it. He has gained two big benefits from this circle. First, he knows that the Tu tribe has a female heavenly master with strong magic, cruel heart, and unknown motives who is hiding in the secret. Whether a teacher is an enemy or a friend cannot yet be determined, because sometimes those who provide help are not necessarily friends, and those who set up obstacles are not necessarily enemies.
The second gain is to warn the Tu tribe. Tearing off the arm of this mage can let the Tu tribe know that he is not a kind person and is very vindictive. Even if it takes several years, he will still come back to take revenge. , so the Tu people have to think carefully if they want to attack him.
When you are stronger than the opponent, you must convince others with virtue and cannot bully the weak, otherwise you will be a bad person.
When you are weaker than others, you have to be covered in thorns and send the message to the other party that if you dare to mess with me, I will fight you tooth and nail. If I can't beat you, I will lose my legs. Only in this way will others not dare to mess with you.
Strength is the most important thing. If you have the strength, you can do whatever you want, but the Jin clan has no strength now. If you don't have the strength, you can only use courage.
On the way back, Wu Dongfang stayed away from the important Tu Clan cities. He knew his weight. He had taken advantage of the opponent's underestimation of the enemy by killing more than a dozen Tu Celestial Masters. He launched a blitzkrieg with lightning speed. He really wanted to give the opponent enough power. He may not be able to defeat even one of them if he gives the opponent time to prepare.
He is good at close combat, and he is confident that he can defeat any opponent in close combat. But if the opponent attacks from a distance, he won't be able to deal with it. If he can draw his bow, he can make up for the shortcomings of long-distance combat. But now he can't draw his bow, and he doesn't know the real reason why he can't draw his bow. At this time, if he encounters a powerful The opponent is a loser and has to run back quickly.
It was late summer and early autumn. There were a large number of wild beasts and birds and various strange animals that he had never seen before in the mountains. He was always careful when flying through the mountains. The Taichu Celestial Master was not enough to despise everything, let alone him. The Heavenly Master of Taichu didn't know magic yet.
Because he ran fast and was not ostentatious, he finally rushed back to the capital of the Jin clan exhausted in the middle of the next night.
Seeing that the capital city was complete, he breathed a sigh of relief. From a distance, he could see the bright lights of the Jin Sheng Tianshi Mansion. When he got closer, he saw that the courtyard of the Tianshi Mansion was filled with wizards from the Jin clan. There were more than a hundred people in the Jin clan. These wizards should all be here.
Everyone's faces were filled with nervousness and apprehension. Seeing Wu Dongfang falling from the sky, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Wu Dongfang landed in front of the hall and looked around at everyone.
"Great White Tiger Heavenly Master, please accept our kneeling." Everyone knelt down in unison.
"From today onwards, heavenly masters are exempted from rituals, and mages and masters are exempted from kneeling." Wu Dongfang said.
"Yes!" Everyone responded with a roar and stood up.
"Some changes happened on the way back, but luckily I brought back the Sunset Bow successfully." Wu Dongfang took off the Sunset Bow and raised it above his head to show everyone.
Seeing the Sunset Bow in Wu Dongfang's hand, all the wizards cheered in unison. The Sunset Bow is a magical weapon of the Jin clan. It has been lost for many years. Almost no wizards present have seen it, but there are several old wizards in their nineties. I have seen it before, and my eyes filled with excitement when I saw Sunset Bow.
Ming Zhen winked at Wu Dongfang. The metal box was placed outside the hall door and had not been opened yet.
"Open it." Wu Dongfang nodded to Ming Zhen. Ming Zhen was mature and calm. Although he brought the box back, he did not tell the other wizards what was in the box.
Ming Zhen raised his hand to remove the top of the box, and then lowered the wall of the box facing everyone, exposing Ming Zhao's head and chest. His purpose of doing this was to maintain Jin Zhao's dignity. The clothes on Jin Zhao's body were already worn out. It was completely rotten, and there were many female wizards among the wizards present.
"Do any of the elders present recognize this person?" Wu Dongfang asked loudly. Although he was already convinced that the skeleton was Jin Zhao, he had to confirm it again just to be sure.
After Wu Dongfang finished speaking, the young wizard helped a few dazzled old wizards over and walked over. When they saw the appearance of the corpse in the copper box clearly, the old wizards knelt down in tears.
"He is Jin Zhao, the last White Tiger Heavenly Master of our Jin clan!" Wu Dongfang said in a deep voice.
After Wu Dongfang finished speaking, all the wizards present knelt down towards Jin Zhao's body. Wu Dongfang did not kneel and stepped aside.
At this moment, Fan Tong ran over from the east courtyard. Wang Ye rushed in front of it to prevent Fan Tong from intruding into such a serious occasion. Fan Tong pushed Wang Ye away with his head, rushed over with a puff, and ran to Wu Dongfang. He sat down on the ground and looked up at Wu Dongfang.
Wu Dongfang touched the rice bucket's head with his hand, and then waved his hand to the prince, telling him not to be too nervous.
"Uncle Xi, father-in-law, you are responsible for checking the cause of Jin Zhao's death and taking care of the funeral. This matter is of great importance. Uncle Xi, please take me into the palace to meet King Jin. I want to report this matter to King Jin." Wu Dongfang ordered the errands. .
Ming Xi and Ming Zhen cupped their hands, Ming Gu cupped their hands and said, "It's too hard for the Holy Witch to travel thousands of miles, so it's better to take a short rest. It won't be too late to enter the palace tomorrow."
"That's fine, it's not convenient for me to enter the palace now." He was not planning to enter the palace at all. He had killed the monster dragon and tore off the mage's arm earlier, which made him covered in blood. It was just a matter of entering the palace to report to the Golden King. In order to ease the relationship with the ghosts and the wizards who are close to the royal family.
"I'm going to change out of my bloody clothes." Wu Dongfang said to the three of them.
Ming Gu and the other three nodded. Wu Dongfang walked toward the backyard with exhaustion all over his body. Ming Yue hesitated and did not follow.
"You're back, they were all scared." The prince followed, and he and Fantong walked to the backyard with Wu Dongfang.
"I'm exhausted. Nothing happened during my absence, right?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"Does it count if the rice bucket has diarrhea?" The prince grinned.
"I fed you too much honey," Wu Dongfang frowned and glanced at the prince, "I haven't eaten in two days, go get someone to get me something to eat."
"Okay." The prince turned and ran away.
When he walked to the bathroom door, the rice pail refused to leave. He was afraid that Wu Dongfang would push him into the water again.
Wu Dongfang took a bath alone. There was no running water at this time. The water in the bath was poured in by people. After washing, he scooped it out and replaced it with clean water. Wizards belong to the nobility, and the White Tiger Celestial Master is a noble among the nobles. It is guaranteed to be fake. privileged class.
He had traveled too much in the past few days and was exhausted. He lay in the water and fell asleep, but he couldn't sleep. The wizards were waiting outside. Mingzhao's body was brought back and he had to prepare for the autopsy tonight. funeral affairs.
"Where have you been these days?" The prince ran in from the door.
"Before I met you, I met another group of foxes, including a fox girl. I got some clues from her mouth. At that time, I suspected that the corpse in the cave was the White Tiger Celestial Master of the Jin tribe, but I We were on the run at the time and couldn't go to the cave to investigate the situation, so we went there with Ming Zhen a few days ago, determined the identity of the body, and brought back the Sunset Bow," Wu Dongfang said.
"I heard you tell me about this. Where did the blood on your body come from?" the prince asked.
"There was a Tu mage who bullied me when I was on the run. I took a detour and removed one of his arms." Wu Dongfang took out the hosta from his dirty clothes, "Take a good look at it and recall it." Come on, where did you see this thing before?"
"I really don't remember." The prince jumped to the stone platform beside the bath and sat down, "Is this thing important?"
"It's very important. By the way, you are well-informed. Let me ask you a question. Can the Tu Celestial Master move a mountain that is more than ten miles long, three or four miles wide, and dozens of feet high?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"The Celestial Master who has reached the Taixuan realm can really move mountains. I have seen this with my own eyes." The prince said.
"How many Taixuan Heavenly Masters are there in the Tu tribe?" Wu Dongfang asked again.
"Seven or eight, five or six, I can't tell, I haven't been back to the Tu tribe for a long time." The prince shook his head.
"Are there any women among these Taixuan Heavenly Masters?" Wu Dongfang asked again.
"I heard there is." The prince said not sure.
"The owner of this hosta may be a witch from the Tu tribe. Think about it again." Wu Dongfang handed the hosta to the prince.
The prince stared at the hosta for more than ten seconds, and finally shook his head helplessly, "I really can't remember it."
Wu Dongfang sighed in disappointment, put down the hosta and asked, "Do you know whether the Xuanhuang Celestial Master of the Tu tribe is a boy or a girl?"
"They are different from you. Master Xuanhuang may be male or female." The prince said.
"Is this generation male or female?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"Female." The prince said firmly.
Wu Dongfang's heart trembled, "How old are you?"
"Let me think about it." The prince tilted his head and rolled his eyes, "Fifteen years, seven or eight years."
"What a mess." Wu Dongfang frowned.
"Fifteen years ago, a Tu slave escaped to Xiaoyao Town. He said that he saw Xuanhuang Celestial Master praying to heaven in the Tu Clan capital seven or eight years ago. At that time, Xuanhuang Celestial Master was wearing a mask and had white hair. She must be in her seventies or eighties anyway, and more than twenty years have passed. If that old woman were still alive, she would be over a hundred years old by now." The prince recalled and calculated.
Wu Dongfang nodded and did not ask any more questions. After asking so many questions, the identity of the mysterious woman was still a mystery.
The only clothes he wore belonged to his brother-in-law. After taking a bath, he had to put on the purple robe of Master Baihu.
It was late at night when he came back. The cook had gone to bed long ago and the fire under the stove was out. The cook could only make up four things in a hurry. Wu Dongfang made do with a few bites and walked from the backyard to the front of the temple.
Everyone saw him coming and saluted him one after another. Wu Dongfang nodded to everyone and turned his attention to the old wizards who were busy around Mingzhao's body. Although these old wizards were mediocre in magic, they had extraordinary medical skills. At this time, he was busy performing an autopsy on Ming Zhao.
The so-called autopsy does not mean disembowelment. Ming Zhao's body cannot be destroyed. The essence of the autopsy is to test for poison to determine what kind of poison Ming Zhao was poisoned with.
Half an hour later, several old wizards stopped. The leader turned to look at Wu Dongfang, "Holy Wizard, there is a result."
Wizards are divided into three levels and nine levels. The wizard is the little wizard, the wizard is the middle wizard, and the heavenly master is the great wizard. There is only one holy wizard in each clan. In the Jin clan, the Baihu heavenly master is the holy wizard, and his residence is the Jin Sheng Celestial Master's Mansion.
Wu Dongfang looked at Ming Gu Ming Xi and Ming Zhen. The three of them nodded. Wu Dongfang nodded to the old wizard headed by him. The latter said in a deep voice, "Purple-leafed turtle."
As soon as he said this, everyone waiting outside the hall exclaimed in unison. Wu Dongfang didn't know what the turtle was, and he didn't understand why these people were so surprised.
Seeing Wu Dongfang's doubts, Ming Xi walked over and whispered, "The crocodile is a kind of poison that is only produced in the Jin and Fire tribes. The purple-leaf crocodile is a strange poison and is extremely rare. It is only found in the Fire tribe." Produced in small quantities…”
