Chapter 114: Is this grand thief alive? (Two chapters in one)(1/2)
Xu Tong slowly clenched his fists, and the paper man downstairs also slowly tightened his fists.
The paper figures created between the virtual and the real, with the blessing of spiritual enchantment, are as strong as steel.
The screams downstairs stopped abruptly the moment Xu Tongjiang clenched his fists.
After killing Li Xi, Xu Tong didn't feel happy in his heart, because there was no sense of accomplishment in killing a guy who was weaker than himself.
But on the other hand, Li Xi must die. Even Qian Shu himself can let it go, but Li Xi cannot.
It’s not that I haven’t given this guy a chance, I’ve even given him many chances.
But every time he made the mistake of taking a fork in the road.
Besides, despite the fact that this guy is very picky now, the fate of the partial official Black Tiger is destined to make him more and more difficult to deal with in the future.
Besides, this guy seemed to have started to wake up. If he missed this opportunity, he was afraid that if he tried to kill him again, this guy might run out of the capital.
"Ding dong!"
He stretched out his hand to grab it, and activated the soul arresting technique. Li Xi's soul floated out from the glazed tiles under his feet, and was gently caught by Xu Tong in his hand.
Seeing Li Xi's soul shrinking to the size of a glass bead, Xu Tong couldn't help but wonder, should he throw him into his own reality and make his master happy?
But this idea was rejected by Xu Tong after it came up. On the one hand, the master would definitely not like it.
Just like he didn't feel any sense of accomplishment after killing Li Xi, the master couldn't just beat him up to vent his anger.
This is both boring and confusing, so why bother.
Secondly, if Li Xi wants to enter the Master's Palace of Hell... he is not worthy yet.
Thinking of this, Xu Tong casually threw Li Xi's soul pearl into the fairy road at the entrance of the hall.
Jingle bells, tinkling bells, I saw a stream of colorful smoke coming out of the fairy furnace, sucking Li Xi's soul into the alchemy furnace, and soon Daya jumped out of the hall holding a hot elixir.
The appearance of this elixir is quite nice, with a glass color. I wonder what kind of elixir the soul of a person like Li Xi can refine?
Out of curiosity, Xu Tong put the elixir into the prop book.
【Partial Official Black Tiger Pill】
Those who eat it will receive a bonus without any taboos within three hours.
No taboos:
Ignores the influence of fate and radiates within a 30-meter radius.
(Note: Black tigers, who are partial officials, are destined to live a miserable life. Those who violate the harmony of nature will mostly end up dead. If they survive, they must pay with blood and stir up chaos in the world.)
"Huh?"
Looking at this elixir, Xu Tong silently fell into deep thought.
He...maybe he is also a poor person.
This elixir came at the right time. When Prince Gong rebelled, he was blessed by fate, almost like a god descending to earth, which impressed him so deeply.
It's hard to say whether Taoist Xunlong and the others will be in such a state of blessing when they wait to seize the dragon. With this elixir, they will be well prepared.
Thinking of this, Xu Tong's eyes gradually darkened, he jumped down from the attic and ran straight towards the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
When Xu Tong arrived, he saw that the front of the Taihe Hall was already filled with civil and military ministers, who had been waiting here all morning.
It is not unreasonable that Xiang Gongbao chose to ascend the throne in the Hall of Supreme Harmony. This palace itself is the largest and most top-notch palace in the entire Forbidden City, and it can be called a unique work.
There are sundials on the platform, one each for Jialiang, a pair of bronze turtles and a pair of bronze cranes, and 18 bronze tripods. The turtle and crane are symbols of longevity. The sundial is an ancient timepiece, and the Jialiang is an ancient standard measuring instrument.
They are all symbols of imperial power.
On the glazed tiles, there are dragons, phoenixes, lions, celestial horses, seahorses, fishes, swans, bulls, bulls, and other ten mythical beasts. You must know that even a palace like the Huangji Palace only has nine.
Xu Tong blended in the crowd silently. He was Ma Qi's son and everyone recognized him, so no one was surprised to see him sneak in.
"No??"
Xu Tong looked around, but did not see Taoist Xunlong and Fu Anning. He was having a dispute in his heart, so he listened to a few veterans gathered together to discuss quietly.
"You are obviously enthroned in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, why do you need to go to the Xuanqiong Palace to do the enthronement ceremony first? Isn't this nonsense?"
"Don't you understand this? Isn't this the way emperors have ascended the throne since ancient times? Do you understand that the power of kings is granted by heaven?"
The Xuan Qiong Palace is the only Taoist palace in the palace, dedicated to God Haotian, but it has not been opened for many years. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, the enthronement ceremony should be held there first, which is also unbelievable to these ministers.
"Hey, it's just hard on us old bones. It's so cold at night and we have to wait here."
Several old men were whispering and did not notice that Xu Tong had quietly jumped past them.
Xuanqiong Palace, this is a place Xu Tong didn't expect, but when he hurried to Xuanqiong Palace.
Suddenly he stopped walking and tilted his head to look at the sky above his head.
A ray of golden light slowly rose into the sky, shining faintly.
Although the light is weak, it hangs in the sky like the most shining star tonight, and even ordinary people can see it.
And this is just the beginning, a steady stream of golden light begins to rise from the ground, and the light becomes more and more brilliant.
"Dragon Qi!"
Xu Tong raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't expect it to start so soon.
This seems to be a little different from what Taoist Xunlong said. According to Taoist Xunlong, it is a good time to extract the dragon veins when the time comes, when the world is turned upside down. But this time it seems to be at least a quarter of an hour earlier.
.
This made him smell something unusual.
It's not that he is suspicious, but the more important it is for such a big event, the more demanding the time is, and he will never rush ahead of time.
It's like a rocket launch. You agree on the time, minutes, and seconds, but it's impossible for you to launch two minutes earlier.
Thinking of this, Xu Tong took a look at the time and began to use plum blossom numbers to perform divination.
However, the result of the first hexagram turned out to be Shang Shang Zhu [Huo Tian Da You Li Shang Qian Xia]
Fire is great in the sky; a gentleman uses it to eliminate evil and promote good, and surrenders his life in obedience to heaven.
Looking at the hexagram, Xu Tong curled his lips.
I believe you as a ghost.
The mission has reminded you that the risk of seizing the dragon is extremely high. If you sign it for me now, it seems abnormal no matter how you look at it.
Calculate again.
[Gui Mei Lei Ze Gui Mei shocks the top and bottom]
To conquer evil, the position is inappropriate. There is no benefit, and softness can take advantage of strength.
It looked like the same thing now, but Xu Tong still felt it was unreliable.
I couldn't tell what was wrong, but I always felt a very uncomfortable feeling all over my body.
He simply walked forward in no hurry and squatted in the corner and began to count.
I started hexagrams more than ten times in a row, starting with time, then starting with things, and then using the most difficult hexagram with the heart. My goodness, the results were not serious even once.
It seemed that Xu Tong's brain was starting to become a Muggle, but the more this happened, the more it indicated that there was a problem, so he simply gritted his teeth and activated the Life Eye Qimen.
"I don't believe it. I can't figure out why."
Xu Tong was also ill and sought medical treatment in a hurry. He combined Plum Blossom Yishu and Mingyan Qimen together to see what the effect would be.
But I didn't expect that this time it was really different.
Under the calculation of Meihua Yishu, the gray world in front of him actually appeared in messy colors.
This was the first time Xu Tong had seen this situation. When he saw it, Xu Tong simply took out a ball of incense and merit.
Suddenly, the strange door in front of me turned, and the messy lines began to gradually become orderly.
"Headmaster, this seems to be the Bagua array."
Daya squatted at the entrance of the hall and looked at it, and she recognized it at a glance. The shapes outlined by these lines were exactly the Five Elements and Bagua.
Xu Tong also saw it, but these lines were not completely organized, and the incense merits on Xu Tong's hands had been burned clean.
Good guy, that bunch of incense may not seem to have many merits, but it can be said that it has thousands of merits.
It burned away in the blink of an eye, and it was even worse than Nazhijie.
Fortunately, what Mingyan Qimen burns is not the script points, but the incense and merits, I have plenty of them.
If ten thousand notes of merit are not enough, then one hundred thousand notes will be enough for you.
Xu Tong casually took out two more balls of merit and continued to burn them.
Perhaps because the incense had enough merit this time, these messy lines quickly became organized.
“Is it the floor plan of the Forbidden Palace??”
Xu Tong was stunned. He didn't expect that after burning so much incense and merit, he would actually get this thing.
In reality, even one yuan would be too expensive for Xu Tong.
If there is anything different, it is that a formation diagram of the Eight Trigrams and Nine Palaces has been added to this floor plan.
Is that it??
In doubt, Xu Tong suddenly felt a heat in his nose, and his hands were stained with blood.
Looking at the blood stains on his fingers, Xu Tong became more excited. He felt that this was definitely not the final result of the Mingyan Qimen. He wanted to continue calculating and he would definitely be able to figure it out.
But just at this moment, a sound of fighting came from not far away, forcing Xu Tong to stop and continue his calculations.
He raised his head and glanced at the sky, and sure enough, the Forbidden Palace was already in a storm, and those guys hiding in the darkness also emerged with clear outlines.
I remember that I saw through the Mingyan Qimen that there was not only one great master in the capital, but also many top masters hidden among the people.
