Chapter 712 It’s hard to tell the truth from the false
"Take it, urgent letter from Nanzhili, good luck!"
The river and port of Pingyang Prefecture.
Ran Zhongshi rushed into the study on the third floor, took a picture of the documents, and was ecstatic.
"Good luck?"
Xu Yuelong stood up and opened the album.
Below the scrawled words it was clearly written: Set off immediately, with no chance of losing.
His brows gradually knitted.
"In mid-February, Nanzhili's reply indicated a minor misfortune. How come a month later, it suddenly became a good fortune?"
Ran Zhongshi said: "Could it be that something unexpected happened within the enemy? Did the Southern Zhili just happen to catch it?"
"How can it be so simple... You can't trust divination completely. Even if it's 30% or 40% accurate, it's already a big deal. We haven't changed anything yet. Can Nanzhili directly predict the movements of the Ghost Mother Cult? If they have this ability, why do they need to set up a separate government?"
Ran Zhongshi was also puzzled.
They did not change. The divination given by Nanzhili changed from minor misfortune to great fortune. It was clearly the actions of the Ghost Mother Cult that caught them.
"Why not ask the new clerk?"
A new clerk joins the army?
Xu Yuelong was stunned, and for a moment he couldn't think of who was coming.
"Frog-man?"
"Cuck!"
The old toad scratched his belly.
……
A corner of the land and water map flipped over, making a rustling sound.
Xiang Changsong was curious, so he moved forward to take a look and saw that the otter was using its claws to poke a small hole at a certain point.
"Are we almost in Cangzhou?"
"It's about two and a half days, not too much difference, and it's also a Feng Shui treasure land." Cao Rang leaned against the railing, "I heard that anyone passing through Cangzhou, regardless of whether they are in the underworld or the white world, regardless of whether they are traveling by water or road, must take down their flags and pass quietly. Otherwise, no matter how famous you are or how good your skills are, you will fall. I don't know if it's true or not."
"Why is there such a strange statement?" Xiang Changsong was puzzled, "We didn't see Mr. Lan taking down the flag when we came here."
"Because a powerful dragon cannot suppress a local snake, Cangzhou is a key point for water and land transportation between the north and the south. It is a must-pass place for the circulation of goods from the big states and cities in the north, and it is also an important trade route for officials and wealthy people."
Cao Rang pointed to the North and South Rivers and said, "There are many capable people who make a living here. As for not lowering the flag when we came here... the golden leaf boat we took when we came here was the king's way, so of course it is different."
"Do you want to go ashore and take a look?"
"Less trouble is worse than more trouble." Lu Gang rejected the proposal, "We have been out of the capital for two days, why do we need supplies?"
The brothers were chatting.
Liang Qu was looking at the water and was about to interrupt with a joke when his heart suddenly stopped. He then felt a sense of helplessness and palpitations from the weightlessness at high altitude, and his forehead pressed against the railing of the boat.
Long Eying was very sensitive: "Sir?"
"nothing……"
The strange feeling came and went quickly, and in the blink of an eye, it was as if it had never appeared.
Liang Qu exhaled a breath of foul air, feeling confused and suddenly remembered something, and his mouth became dry.
"Eying, what does it feel like to have a sudden impulse?"
"I have never experienced this. I have heard from the elders that different people may have different symptoms, such as palpitations, heartache, weakness, or bad temper. Some may even have inexplicable appetite and lust, just like a dying person who wants to eat a full meal to pass on his bloodline to his descendants." Long Eying is not stupid. She secretly grasped the hilt of the sword and was on guard. "My lord, did you have a sudden inspiration just now?"
Liang Qu was horrified when he heard this.
A real whim?
The impulse of the tiger hunter realm is mostly due to the accidental death of a loved one, or the danger that one will encounter oneself.
Not to mention the realm of Grandmaster or Martial Saint.
When tiger hunting strikes a whim, often things have already happened or even just happened in the next moment!
Something happened to the master? Enemies came to visit?
Think about this.
Liang Qu's nerves were tense, his eyes were burning, and he reached out to grab his belt, which contained a lot of things.
The wooden plaque given by the master had a shelf life of one month and was no longer useful. It had been several months since Huangzhou left and the silver light had dimmed.
The old monk has two small golden statue orders, which are barely usable.
Perhaps it is because monks do not lie. The old monk said the shelf life is one month, but Liang Qu actually measured it and it is several months, at least a season. The effect is best around one month, and it will decay slightly after that.
In addition, the Cloud Thunder Robe given by the Holy Emperor has an unknown shelf life due to its characteristics.
The jade token given by the King of Yue has a shelf life of five years and contains a powerful strike from the Martial Saint.
I don't know why I suddenly felt like doing this.
Just in case, Liang Qu held the small order in his left hand and grasped the jade token with his right hand.
Fingers touching fingers.
Empty.
"Last year, Marquis Weining was granted the title of Ningjiang. He traveled south from the imperial capital to recruit soldiers and horses. He used several white marble pillars that imprinted a trace of his will to test his talent. However, when he arrived at Pingyang Prefecture, he was given a jade token. It was said that there was a martial saint's attack hidden inside, but it looked ordinary."
Gum!
Liang Qu swallowed his saliva, cold sweat gathered and flowed down his spine.
The strong malice pierced through the flesh and blood like a needle, and pierced straight into the heart!
Lu Gang and Xu Zishuai protected the other junior brothers and sisters, while Long Eying stepped sideways to block Liang Qu.
The middle-aged man in green clothes was standing alone, turning over a piece of mutton-fat jade in his palm.
No one knows how the other got on the boat.
However, at just one glance, the hearts of the people in the field began to beat wildly, and they smelled an extremely strong sense of crisis.
The middle-aged man stood casually, but he was like a high and dangerous mountain peak, giving people a sense of oppression.
Grandmaster...
Long Binglin exhaled lightly and walked out of the cabin: "Sir, I come here uninvited..."
"Binglin! Shut up, it's not your turn to speak!"
Liang Qu interrupted with a loud shout, held Long Eying's shoulders and pulled her behind him.
The man in green put down the jade token and said, "You are alert. Are you acting on impulse?"
"Senior! Have you and I ever met? I wonder if Liang has ever offended me, and if there is any chance to make amends?"
The man in green put his hands behind his back and said, "It's okay to tell you. My last name is Ning."
Your surname is Ning?
Liang Qu's brain was working rapidly, and a balloon poodle suddenly popped up in his memory.
Ning Chaoqing's father? ?
Lu Gang and others also recalled what happened on the Wulao Peak of Mount Lushan. They failed to ambush their junior brother and had their limbs crushed by the dragon man. They couldn't help swallowing their saliva.
"I think you have guessed it, but there is no need to be nervous." Lord Ning raised his hand to comfort him, "Although you killed my son, he is an illegitimate child, and it is not something that can be put on the table. Just find a woman to give birth to another one. The girl behind you is very good."
Liang Qu's face tightened.
"Oh... I do care. I am not here today to avenge you. Tell me where your white ape friend is. I will leave you with a whole body."
Cold sweat.
Liang Qu was about to speak.
Swish!
Keep your feet off the ground.
A feeling of weightlessness came over me.
Ning Gong then opened his five fingers, grasped Liang Qu's head tightly, and lifted it into the air.
Liang Qu tried to resist, but was powerless. The green-clothed man's forearm seemed to be cast in copper or iron, and could not be moved at all.
"He's quite strong."
Ning Gong felt the brute force on his arm and clenched his hand with his backhand.
"what!"
"Junior brother!"
"Senior, don't be anxious. Ning Chaoqing is not dead yet. You can just exchange him for my junior brother!" Xu Zishuai shouted.
Lord Ning ignored him and said, "Where is the white ape? If you say any more nonsense, I will pinch you with my fingers. If you are not afraid of death, it's fine."
He opened his mouth and exhaled, and a gray mist appeared out of thin air. The entire deck was quietly worn away by a hole several feet in size, which went all the way through the bottom of the ship, and the river water gurgled back into it.
Everyone's heart skipped a beat and they retreated and dispersed.
"Soul-Stirring and Bone-Eroding Wind, my supernatural power is below that of a Grandmaster. No matter how powerful your skills are, once you are touched by it, you will turn into a pool of blood and thick fog. Even gods cannot save you. You are not afraid of death. For every inch the ship sinks, I will kill one of your brothers..."
Liang Qu covered his eyes with his hands and could not see the situation outside at all. He seemed to be so painful that he lost his mind and was indifferent.
Ning Gongcai frowned slightly, and the gray wind blew Lu Gang back.
But before the gray wind touches it.
boom!
The earth and sky shook, and the rivers split.
Everyone felt empty.
The entire ship sank straight into the water!
The waves piled up one after another, rushing towards the east and west.
"Humph, so dishonest!"
Lord Ning floated down to the surface of the water, stood on the water, and without paying any attention to the people who fell into the water, he pinched down with his five fingers.
boom!
The golden light dissipated and shattered.
The skull crackled and severe pain penetrated the brain, but while the golden body was still holding on, Liang Qu forced himself to stay conscious, raised his hand to his lower back, and pulled out a jade token the size of a palm.
Lord Ning paused.
He didn't shudder when the ship sank.
Liang Qu was not surprised that he had other master skills.
But looking at the jade token that was exactly the same as the one in his hand.
He was stunned.
歘!
The jade token shattered.
between heaven and earth.
Silver light masterpiece.
A silver ring expands infinitely!
