When everyone saw the Chunyang Sect disciple who volunteered to exchange hostages with Xu Zhinan, they were all shocked.
He changed into Chen Xingyong's clothes and hair crown, messed up his hair, and pretended to have a severed hamstring. He was already four or five points similar to Chen Xingyong, and his originally tall and strong figure had shrunk to a medium-slender figure. , even the bones of the face became feminine. At first glance, it was Chen Xingyong himself.
In fact, after a little identification, it can be seen that there are two people, but in the case of the same clothes, unkempt hair and black lights, it is enough to distinguish between real and fake.
"The Bone Shrinking Art of Chunyang Sect is so miraculous." Zong Ziheng looked at this disciple curiously, and it was difficult to tell them apart for a moment.
Xu Zhinan said: "It's impossible to do exactly the same, and it won't last long, but it's still okay to bluff people."
"You can definitely fool the other party. Brother Xu, no matter how many people the other party has, as soon as your junior brother is rescued, you must withdraw immediately."
This rescue has been fully planned, Xu Zhinan took the fake Chen Xingyong's younger brother to replace Cheng Yanzhi, waited for the opportunity, and immediately sent out a signal when the person was rescued, and they waited outside the city to rush to rescue the person.
If all goes well, they can not only rescue the person, but also capture the mysterious person.
"Don't worry, I will adapt accordingly."
They sent Xu Zhinan and the two to the outskirts of the city, which is only two miles away from Dayangpo, and Yujian can reach it in a blink of an eye.
After Zong Zixiao learned that Xu Zhinan gave Zong Ziheng a good sword, his expression was a little complicated.
He stroked Jun Lan: "It is indeed a good sword, but he is a generous person."
"Well, Big Brother Xu is generous and righteous. Under his leadership, the Chunyang Sect will definitely flourish."
Zong Zixiao gently retracted Jun Lan into the sheath, and stared at Zong Ziheng: "Brother, would you... blame Father?"
Zong Ziheng was slightly startled. The two brothers have never discussed such issues. Even when Zong Zixiao was young, he vaguely realized that his father treats his elder brother and himself very differently. Some words don't know how to start or end. .
"I know father is not good to elder brother, I..." Zong Zixiao frowned, and he was really stuck.
The eldest son Heng said indifferently: "It's not that the father treats the eldest brother badly, but the eldest brother is the eldest son, so the education must be stricter." How could he tell his much-loved younger brother, because the empress hates their mother and son, and the emperor still needs to rely on her The Wuliang faction behind him, so he will never be kind to him.
Maybe his younger brother has grown up and already understood, but as a courtier, loyalty and filial piety are two mountains above his head, so he can only be tame.
Zong Zixiao looked hesitant to speak.
"Furthermore, it's not that my father didn't give me a sword. I should have gotten a good sword at the Jiaolong meeting three years ago, but I missed it myself." Zong Ziheng patted Zong Zixiao's head, "We, Xiao Jiu, must not miss Shen Nong's sword." A sword made of a tripod."
Zong Zixiao said earnestly and firmly: "Brother, what is mine is yours. No matter what our brothers get from now on, we will not distinguish between each other. Even if you want my sword, I will give it to you."
Zong Ziheng smiled and said: "Okay, when you get the Excalibur, I will borrow the elder brother to perform a dance."
A Chunyang Sect disciple stared at the direction of Dayangpo, worried: "Why haven't you believed me for so long, I don't know if Senior Brother has seen Senior Brother Cheng."
"Yeah, it's been almost half an hour."
"Eldest brother is so powerful, nothing will happen."
Zong Ziheng was also worried. Even if the fake Chen Xingyong passed the test, it didn't mean that the mysterious person would keep his promise and return Cheng Yanzhi. If the fake Chen Xingyong was discovered, the situation would be even more dangerous. Xu Zhinan was the only one who could respond, which was really worrying.
Qi Mengsheng said: "Wait for another stick of incense, if Master Xu still has no signal, we will go over."
"good."
As soon as the words fell, there was a loud noise from a distance, and the incandescent fire suddenly appeared in the ink-stained night sky, and the earth trembled.
They had been waiting for Xu Zhinan's firework signal, but this was by no means the signal they were expecting, but an explosion!
The Zong brothers rose up with swords.
Cultivators of Dao rely on equipment to fly in the air. Equipment repair is the easiest way to control equipment. Cangyumen cultivation technique can control ice. Only Wuxiu can use the physical body to fly on the void.
They were all very fast, but when they arrived at Dayangpo, they were still a step slower.
A huge pothole was blown out of Dayangpo. From the sky, it looked like a piece had been dug out by a shovel. There were several people lying on the ground, and there were stumps everywhere. Blood and mud mixed together. The black, black and red are swaying around, it is simply horrible.
The air was filled with a scorched and pungent smell.
"It's Lei Huoshi!" Qi Mengsheng said in surprise.
"Big brother!"
As soon as Zong Ziheng landed, he ran towards Xu Zhinan together with the others.
Xu Zhinan was half covered in dust, his right arm was blown off, and his face was covered in blood, but he was still crawling forward with one hand. Not far away was Cheng Yanzhi, whose life and death were unknown.
This situation is full of grief and indignation.
"Brother Xu!" Zong Ziheng rushed up to help Xu Zhinan, and lost his spiritual power crazily. Seeing Xu Zhinan's miserable state, his chest was filled with anger.
"I, my junior brother." Xu Zhinan tremblingly said, "I'm fine, go and see... Yanzhi..."
Zong Ziheng said anxiously: "Stop talking, protect your heart."
"Senior brother Cheng, brother Cheng is still alive! But..."
When Xu Zhinan heard this, he closed his eyes and passed out.
Zong Zixiao quickly turned around: "No, these people are not like that mysterious person, what about others?"
Qi Mengsheng took out two elixir and fed them to Xu Zhinan and Cheng Yanzhi respectively. She said in a deep voice, "It's important to save people, take them back to the city first. Take all the dead and alive here, and then send people to search around. Did anything slip through the cracks."—
"Senior Sister, it has been confirmed that it is Lei Huoshi's formula."
Thunder Flint is a kind of explosive. It is a prescription formulated by a school in Yongliang that specializes in making gunpowder and firearms. It is much more powerful than ordinary explosives. It was torn apart, but the disciple who pretended to be Chen Xingyong still failed to survive. As for the monks who were suspected of being enemies, none of them left a whole body behind.
Qi Mengsheng squinted a pair of beautiful eyes: "Lei Huoshi rarely appears in the Central Plains, will this matter have something to do with Yongliang?"
Although Lei Huoshi is powerful, but for the rigid, old-fashioned and self-respecting Central Plains sect, it is doomed to be swept into the ranks of heretics and disdained to use it.
Zongzi Heng said: "Thunder fire stones are indeed rare in the Central Plains, but I heard that there are not many people who buy thunder fire stones in private, but many immortal sects will not let others know because of their face."
"Then it will be difficult to find out who used Thunder Flint."
"Emissary Fei Ling, have you put together those limbs? Can you find the main envoy?" A Chunyang Sect disciple said angrily, "My senior brother and senior brother Cheng were seriously injured, and junior brother Wang died. This matter must be investigated to the end!"
Qi Mengsheng said: "It's over, but there is no one who looks like the master."
"What?"
Zong Zixiao said: "I have already seen it at the scene. The person who can capture Cheng Yanzhi must be a high-level monk. The protective barrier of a high-level monk will at least not blow him to pieces."
Zong Ziheng was puzzled and said: "However, Lei Huoshi must be used at close range, Brother Xu was injured by the blast, and the mysterious person could not escape in time. Is there anyone else who is faster than the monks of the Pure Yang Cult?"
Qi Mengsheng said: "This is really puzzling."
"Eldest brother is awake!"
Hearing this, everyone got up one after another and went to visit Xu Zhinan.
Before that, they split up and went to a nearby town to find a doctor to treat their injuries. Xu Zhinan didn't hurt his vitals. His self-healing ability was so strong that he could even grow back a broken limb, but Cheng Yanzhi's injury was so serious that he was almost hanging Breath, may die at any time.
The most frightening thing is that Cheng Yanzhi's golden core was poached away. Xu Zhinan woke up, but they didn't know how to tell him the bad news.
But Xu Zhinan was extremely calm. If it wasn't for his ashen face, he looked like he had just woken up from a long dream without too many ups and downs, but this would have made people feel even more depressed and sad.
"Did Junior Brother Wang not be rescued?" Xu Zhinan said softly.
The Chunyang Sect disciple started to sob softly.
"Yanzhi's golden core has been dug out."
"How do you know?" Qi Mengsheng asked in surprise.
"I saw it." Xu Zhinan opened his eyes, his eyes were as cold as winter, "After the explosion, I saw that man dug Yanzhi's pill, and he wanted to dig mine, but when you arrived, he ran away .”
"Run away?" Zong Zixiao's eyes widened, "Could it be that he didn't release Lei Huoshi? Or was he so advanced that he only suffered minor injuries?" Those who can withstand Lei Huoshi's close-range explosion and move freely, I'm afraid There are only the heads of the various sects.
"No, he's not hurt at all, he's safe and sound." Xu Zhinan's lips trembled slightly.
As soon as this remark came out, several gasps followed.
"Impossible." Qi Mengsheng said decisively, "Now the masters with the highest cultivation levels in the world of cultivating immortals are the head immortals of the Chunyang Sect..." After she blurted out, she realized that these words were spoken in front of a room full of Chunyang Sect disciples. On the face of it, it is really wrong.
But Xu Zhinan finished the sentence for her: "To be able to survive such an explosion unscathed, even my master may not be able to do it."
"Is there really a hermit in this world?" Zong Ziheng's face turned pale, "I don't believe it. If there is such a person, how can he work hand in hand with Chen Xingyong and other bastards? Why do we need to dig people's golden core?"
"What Your Highness said is very true." Qi Mengsheng said, "There is also a possibility that he has a special magic weapon that allows him to avoid it. For example, if you use public torque, you can instantly stay away from the explosion."
"But Gong Shumo is in my universe bag." Xu Zhinan said.
"Brother Xu, please tell me what happened at that time in detail. Chen Xingyong was arrested. This incident is far from over. We must find out the mysterious person behind the scenes."
Xu Zhinan sighed, with a look of pain on his brows: "At that time, I took Junior Brother Wang to Dayangpo, and I saw that mysterious man with a few subordinates and Yanzhi. At that time, I thought everything was fine. As I expected."
"I want to talk to the mysterious man, but he is very strict. We have never fought against each other, and I have no way of knowing the number of his exercises. Then, he proposed to exchange hostages. According to the plan, after returning to Yan, Junior Brother Wang There will be a sudden attack and a sneak attack on the mysterious person, I will set off fireworks, you come to the rescue, and we will wipe them all out. However, the mysterious person does not want to return Chen Xingyong, he wants to silence Chen Xingyong and us together."
"So, when he was very close to us, he suddenly threw Lei Huoshi. I only had time to protect myself and Yanzhi. Junior Brother Wang was the closest to him, so I couldn't..." Xu Zhinan said at the end, his voice choked.
