"Brother, why do you want to open it down? Can I go over and have a look?" Yu Gan asked the magician who found the formation.

The latter shook his head, "The place where the formation is fixed is the most sensitive part of the formation. Although the formation is in the dormant and dormant stage, if you observe it for a long time, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of the people who set up the formation. Pull it down and watch it slowly.”

Yu Gan suddenly realized that there is still this particularity and professionalism.

Cheng Ze looked up at the magician at this time and asked, "What's your name? Which department?"

"I'm an official on the way back, Chen Sheng, I'm from the Astrological Department." The sorcerer clasped his fists and replied.

"The level of formation is high?" Cheng Ze asked again.

"Barely enough..." Chen Sheng replied modestly.

Cheng Ze nodded slightly, "You performed well. From today on, come and work under my subordinates. I'll go to Department B to ask for someone later."

Chen Sheng was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Cheng Ze with overjoyed looks, and hurriedly bowed, "Thank you, Cheng, for looking up to me, and I obey."

Yu Gan didn't expect to see this side. It seems that Qin Tianjian, like Dali Temple, speaks by ability.

The treatment of this Chen Sheng is clearly the same as when his aunt threw an olive branch at him when he first entered Dali Temple.

"Cheng Cheng, can you explain it for me?" Bai Xingjian bowed his hands to Cheng Ze, as a gesture of asking for advice.

This Cheng Ze was originally one of the top array mages in the Qin Tianjian, so the Qin Tianjian asked him to lead this formation.

From the beginning to now, he has been the one who has been taking the lead in deducing the grand formation buried deep in Tai'an City.

Cheng Ze just nodded, then took out a large square cloth from his arms, spread it out and cast a spell to make it float in the air.

This is a rough map of Tai'an City. Each small square on it represents a square, and some red dots are dotted on the Beicheng District, which is the rough location where the camp was found before.

Cheng Ze pointed at the map and explained, "I haven't reached the fixed formation point before, so I dare not make a conclusion at all. After all, formations are ever-changing, and even formations with the same function have different ways of manipulation."

Cheng Ze pointed to the fixed-array jade talisman on the magic weapon and said, "The jade talisman here is made with pill fire, and the jade talisman that can be made with pill fire is definitely not an ordinary formation.

Moreover, the cloud pattern on it is the biggest flying star pattern, and this kind of pattern is the favorite of the formation master.Because the stability is extremely strong, it is the most suitable way to set the formation.

Coupled with the two blood clotting beads on it and the extremely abundant spiritual energy inside, it can be confirmed that this is where the formation is located. "

After finishing speaking, Cheng Ze marked the current location on the map with a striking sign.Then he pointed to the map and said, "The location of the fixed formation is surrounded by other formations, and it is distributed in a bracket.

These layout methods are in line with the formation of the four elephants category, that is to say, this is a large formation formed according to the four directions. "

Bai Xingjian frowned slightly, "That is to say, the formation is not only located in Beicheng District, but also in the other three districts? Can the entire Tai'an City be included?"

"Judging from the current handwriting, there is a high probability of this." Cheng Ze nodded and explained, "Because the jade talisman set in this array has abundant spiritual power and is of such a high grade that it is rare.

It is impossible for such a fixed formation to be done in just the northern city, so there is a high probability that there will be four urban areas, connected by four images. "

A solemn look appeared on Bai Xingjian's face, "Then what kind of formation is this formation?"

Cheng Ze just said, "Wait a minute."

Then he flew directly above the surface of the water, made a tactic with both hands to cover himself and the river below with a mask, and then made a gesticulation with both hands in the air.

A nihilistic light mirror appeared out of thin air, clearly projecting the formation under the ground. Cheng Ze watched intently, frowning and carefully observing the jade talisman.

After a while, the light mirror in front of him turned into star spots and dispersed, and then he swung his right hand lightly to remove the mask, and then flew back to the distance again.

Yu Gan and the others all stared at him, waiting for an explanation.

Cheng Ze pondered for a while, then said, "The skeleton pattern on the jade talisman is the son of the 82nd Palace..."

Speaking of this, Cheng Ze paused, he was too lazy to popularize science with these laymen, the crushing of dimensions often makes people lose interest in explaining.

Cheng Ze gave the answer directly, "I'm sure this is a kind of trapped formation. Specifically, I need to find out the formations in the entire Beicheng District before I dare to give an answer.

After that, I can directly locate the positions of all the positions in the other three urban areas. "

Bai Xingjian said in admiration, "This time, it's all thanks to Officer Cheng."

The latter just shook his head, couldn't help but picked up the wine jug on his waist and took a big sip before continuing, "But it stands to reason that such a large array cannot be supported by an array mage of ordinary strength.

If you want to run such a large formation, let alone a third-rank Void Refining level formation master lead the formation. "

"Array master, do you still need to refine your strength?" Bai Xingjian looked solemn, "There are not many such talents, right?"

"Not many." Cheng Ze shook his head and said, "There are only a handful of them in the world. Formation is difficult to learn and requires a lot of energy. Normally speaking, there is very little spare energy to devote to cultivation.

For example, our Tai'an city's large defensive formation was set up and led by Daoist Qingchen back then. "

"I have heard of the name of Daoist Qingchen. He was the number one formation master in Daqi back then. I heard that he stepped into the second-rank realm with half a foot. At that time, it was said that if Daoist Qingchen devoted himself to cultivation, I hope to have a great way." Bai Xingjian sighed deeply, and then continued to ask.

"So you mean that this formation requires a monk with the strength of Daoist Qingchen to lead the formation?"

"That's not true." Cheng Ze shook his head and explained, "Although this formation is complex and complex, it is not comparable to the large formation that protects the city. But even so, this person who can lead the formation is also a rare power in the world."

Hearing Cheng Ze's firm explanation, Bai Xingjian frowned slightly again. The degree of danger of this matter obviously kept rising as it progressed.

He always had a bad feeling.

At this moment, Yu Gan bowed his head and asked, "Officer Cheng, I heard from Bai Shaoqing that the formations refined by blood coagulation beads are generally killing formations, and the magic formation is. Why is this a sleepy formation?"

Cheng Ze shook his head, "That's exactly what I'm confused about. It stands to reason that the refining of the blood coagulation beads is basically a killing formation, but I dare to conclude that the formation method is a sleepy formation. Such an unreasonable formation method makes me wonder I have never heard of it before. It is really difficult to use common sense to guess the sinister intentions of the people who set up the formation."

"We'll wait for things to become clearer. Let's move forward and find out all the positions in this northern city before making a decision." Bai Xingjian said finally.

Everyone nodded and left this place first.

Daqi, the inner city, is a grand and low-luxury mansion.

In a study room deep in the courtyard, a middle-aged man in a purple robe was standing in front of the altar burning incense.

The window is open, and the garden is outside, and the breeze blows in with the fragrance of flowers, making the room extraordinarily fresh.

At this time, the door was gently pushed open, and Butler Li walked in.

Seeing that the purple-robed man was still offering incense with his eyes closed, he was not in a hurry to disturb him, but stood by the side with his hands tied.

After a while, the man finished offering incense, and then he turned to look at Butler Li, and asked lightly, "What's the matter."

Li Guanjia said, "Sir, the person who supervised the formation just now discovered that there are abnormal fluctuations in the fixed formation in Beicheng District."

The purple-robed man walked to the side of the coffee table and sat down, nodded and asked, "I've found out."

Steward Li shook his head, "It's being inspected in Qingfang, and people can't get in. I don't know what's going on inside."

The purple-robed man paused, and tapped his fingers lightly on the table, "Did it happen suddenly?"

"No." Li Butler explained, "Recently, Beicheng District has been in the process of orderly clearing the square, and today it is only the turn of the square."

"Tell me specifically what fluctuations." The man asked again.

Butler Li explained, "It just passed away in a flash. I don't know if it was a wrong induction or someone was watching. The time is very short, so it's hard to draw a conclusion directly. It can only be said that there is a high probability that it is a wrong induction."

"What did Qin Tianjian say?" Zipao asked again.

"I only know that I sent a group of people out secretly, but I don't know what to do." Li Butler replied, "However, one thing is strange is that Cheng's subordinate officer seldom shows up in Qin Tianjian recently.

According to the master's previous instructions, the masters of Qin Tianjian have been monitoring the formation masters.During this time, the Cheng subordinate officer was basically not on Qin Tianjian's side. "

"Over at Dali Temple, I remember you told me last time that Bai Shaoqing is often absent during this period, right?" the purple-robed man squinted his eyes and asked.

"Yes." Li Butler nodded, "There haven't been any major cases in Tai'an recently, so it stands to reason that this Bai Shaoqing can't be absent so often.

Of course, whether it is Bai Shaoqing or Cheng's official, we are not good at jumping to conclusions, after all, the information we can know is very limited. "

"I hope they will notice it earlier." Zipao smiled lightly, and continued, "Dali Temple is definitely not a good person, and it is estimated that they have already noticed the formation. That fluctuation cannot rule out that they have already found out.

As long as the notification continues, everyone will hide, and no one should be alerted. Everything will be carried out according to the plan we specified before.

Although Dali Temple may find out the formation method much faster than we expected, but it is harmless, let them continue to check the formation method step by step, and we will concentrate on dealing with another set. "

"Yes." Butler Li cupped his fists.

Zipao continued to ask, "If we start to investigate, then the gloves of the Tsing Yi Gang and the like will probably surface. We've cut off all the tails over there, right?"

"Mr. Hui, it's all cleaned up." Butler Li replied.

"Let those princes have a headache first." Zipao smiled lightly, and then said solemnly, "Remember, there must be no mistakes in the real formation."

"Yes." Steward Li accepted the order with cupped fists, and then said with emotion, "If it's what you think, then Dali Temple has already started the investigation. That is to say, they are using the matter of Qingfang to conduct the investigation.

This method is extremely ingenious. It has to be said that the Dali Temple's ability to handle cases is really powerful. "

"That's why I told you to be careful. If there are any mistakes, you and I can't afford it." Zipao said lightly, and then asked.

"How is the arrangement of the Xuanjing?"

"We've already reached an agreement with him." Butler Li nodded and replied, "As long as we can come up with what they want, those people in Dali Temple will take care of it."

"The wizards of Southern Border have already decided who will enter the Profound Realm this time, right?" the purple-robed man asked.

"Yes." Butler Li replied, "As you expected, they entered Tai'an with the Prince of Nanyang. It is estimated that they will arrive a day or two later than the Prince of Nanyang."

Zipao took a sip of tea and continued, "If these Southern Xinjiang wizards can successfully eliminate the people in Dali Temple, we don't need to take action. If they have difficulties, please help them."

"Understood." Li Butler nodded, and then asked with some puzzlement, "Sir, why are you sure that this Nanyang wizard will attack the people of Dali Temple in Xuanjing, and why are you sure that these wizards are in collusion with Nanyang King?" ?”

"As a human being, it's always good to have more friends. The King of Nanyang certainly knows something about his ambition." Zipao said something, and then patiently explained.

"Nanjiang and Nanyang have a common goal, which is chaos in the world. Not only in terms of political power, but also in the world of practice."

"Daqi's practice world has been peaceful for too long, from the perspective of King Nanyang, it is better to be chaotic. And the Xuanjing is the best place.

Because it is isolated from the world, and there are many sects and forces intertwined. "

"Then why do you have to choose someone from Dali Temple?"

"Because there may be room for other forces to turn around. But if something happened to the people of Dali Temple there, it would be those elites. According to the principles of Dali Temple, it will definitely be turned upside down."

"Mister is wise." Steward Li nodded his head in admiration, and then continued to ask, "But if that's the case, wouldn't it be dangerous if the prince of Nanyang is still in Tai'an.

The Son of Heaven is probably the one who most wants to keep this son in Tai'an as a proton, so how could he let such a good reason go. "

Zipao smiled and said, "Not to mention who can say clearly about the things in the profound realm, who can find out. As long as Nanyang King is still in Nanyang for a day, this prince can't be left as a hostage.

The deterrent power of our Nanyang King is not simply talking about it.

Moreover, if they did this, it would be impossible for people to find themselves so easily, otherwise, how could they stir up the muddy water in the practice world.

Naturally, I can't understand their specific arrangements.

In short, we must only add firewood at critical moments.The biting thing keeps them coming. "

"Mr. has a clever plan." Li Butler bowed his hands with emotion, and then said no more, left and went to work.

There was only this man in purple robe left in the room. He looked up at the sunny weather outside the window, holding a teacup in his hand, looking extremely comfortable.

On the way back to the restaurant, Yu Gan was also a little confused.The person who set up the formation expended so much energy and acted so secretly, the price was not insignificant.

But in the end, what is deployed is a trap formation. What is the significance of such an formation?Yu Gan really couldn't figure it out.

It's like you studied hard for ten years in a cold window, and finally got into an ordinary school with a score of [-]. Isn't this a joke?

Withdrawing back to the restaurant, Yu Gan wanted to continue asking Cheng Ze about the details of the formation, when a talisman crane flew in from outside and landed on Yu Gan's hand.

After opening it, Yu Gan was stunned again.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Yu Gan like this, Bai Xingjian asked him.

"Old Gu is looking for me." Yu Gan explained, "He asked me to go back to Dali Temple now and accompany him and Minister Gongsun to pick up someone."

"Who?" Bai Xingjian asked suspiciously.

"The prince of Nanyang." Yu Gan spread his hands, "The prince is entering Beijing today."

"Why does the prince of Nanyang want Mr. Gu and you to pick him up? Isn't this the job of the Ministry of Rites?"

"It's what His Majesty meant." Yu Gan said helplessly.

Bai Xingjian's eyes narrowed immediately, "The three of you were responsible for the witchcraft case last time."

"Yes."

Bai Xingjian said seriously, "Since it's His Majesty's will, let's go. But remember one thing, be careful in everything and talk less.

I heard that the son of Nanyang Prince is not simple, so don't conflict with him. "

"Yes, thank you boss for your instructions, I understand." Yu Gan clasped his fists and said.

"Okay, let's go, I will naturally watch over here." Bai Xingjian waved his hand.

Yu Gan didn't stay any longer, left Shi Du behind, and left here quietly by himself.

He didn't know why the emperor suddenly asked them, who were in charge of the witchcraft case, to pick up the Nanyang prince, but he knew that it must be a bad thing.

The king of Nanyang is the one behind the nail in the coffin, and now he asks himself to pick up people, which is not to make trouble.

Thinking of this, Yu Gan felt a little slanderous towards his old father-in-law, sitting on the throne with his buttocks, there are many things to do.

Soon, he returned to Dali Temple. As soon as he arrived at the east gate of Dali Temple, he saw Gu Qingyuan sitting on the front of a carriage, and Gongsun Yan sitting beside him. The two seemed to be discussing something .

Yu Gan walked directly towards them, and then jumped onto the front of the car.

The carriage was big, and the front was also big, so Yu Gan just shoved aside with Gongsun Yan shamelessly.

Surprised by Gongsun Yan, she looked at Gu Qingyuan and the surroundings with a guilty conscience.

Gu Qingyuan naturally wouldn't have any opinion on Yu Gan's way of crowding out, it's just a good relationship between superiors and subordinates before becoming someone else.

"Mr. Gu, Minister Gongsun, what's the matter, Your Majesty asked us to pick up Nanyang Prince?" Yu Gan asked.

"I don't know." Gu Qingyuan shook his head, waved his horsewhip, and the carriage started to move slowly, walking slowly towards the south gate.

Gongsun Yan on the side took up the conversation, "You will follow His Majesty's will, so why are there so many problems?"

"Okay, Minister." Yu Gan obediently agreed, and then squeezed towards Gongsunyan, buttocks were touching.

Gongsun Yan glared at Yu Gan as a warning, and she couldn't say anything unsightly in the public.

How could the shameless Yu Gan care about this, he just continued to lean next to each other, and then took the rope of the horse from Gu Qingyuan's hand.He asked casually while driving.

"What were you talking about with the minister just now?"

"Things about the profound realm." Gu Qingyuan leaned back. He was getting older and would get tired after sitting for a long time. After adjusting his sitting posture, he continued.

"If there are no accidents, this old man will also accompany you to the Xuan Realm this time."

Yu Gan was taken aback for a moment, and then joy flooded his face, "That's great, Mr. Gu, I'm much more at ease with you here."

Before, Yu Gan thought that it was basically impossible for Gu Qingyuan to go, because he had already been there once 20 years ago.Generally speaking, a person will basically not go for the second time.

Because those who can choose to enter are all extremely talented, or are at the peak of the fifth rank.After going in once, within 20 years, you will either reach the fourth rank or stop at nothing.

In either case, there is no further need to enter the right.

The hidden danger left by Gu Qingyuan's body 20 years ago was there, so after he came out, he stopped moving forward.Yu Gan knew before that Gu Qingyuan had basically bid farewell to Breakthrough.

Lifetime is estimated to be at the peak of the fifth rank, but I didn't expect that now I still have the opportunity,

"The old man's health is already weakened, and this opportunity should have been given to ordinary people. But Si Qing told me that I have to go, the kind that I can't do if I don't go." Gu Qingyuan explained lightly, and then said with emotion.

"How can He De be so valued by Si Qing for an old body?"

Yu Gan hurriedly said, "Mr. Gu, this is because your own thinking is wrong. You have dedicated so many years to Dali Temple, which is obvious to all.

There is no one more qualified to go to Dali Temple than you.The Minister of the Temple is also thinking that Gu Lao, you can break through to the fourth rank in the mysterious realm, so that you can better serve our Dali Temple. "

Gu Qingyuan smiled lightly and stopped talking.

Yu Gan didn't think about asking the old man about some internal issues of the profound realm in detail, so as not to hurt the old man's heart.There is no rush for this kind of thing, and I will naturally be able to understand it in detail when I want to go in later.

Just like that, Yu Gan chatted happily with the two of them, and then hurried towards the south of the city all the way.

Yu Gan drove all the way to a place ten miles outside the South City Gate.

It's not very suburban here, but there are already some farms around, which reflect the gathering place of farmers who are the most authentic face of Daqi.

Yu Gan finally parked the car behind a pavilion on the right side of the official road.

This pavilion is very big, built by the Daqi government, and it is specially used for this kind of important visiting or leaving people.Welcoming and sending.

The ancients were quite particular about this point. No matter what the relationship is, the scene that should be done must be done.

Sending off or welcoming each other is a very basic operation.

After the car was parked and got off, Yu Gan found that some people were already standing in the gazebo.One group was from the Ministry of Rites, led by the court chief who was in charge of Yu Gan's marriage at that time.

The other two were Zhang Tingyu and his housekeeper.

This Zhang Xiang stood with his hands behind his back, looking towards the south.

Yu Gan was a little surprised. It stands to reason that this kind of welcoming work, except for the people in the Ministry of Rites who are performing their duties normally, other people, especially some people with status, would not come to this kind of place easily.

Unless it is the order of His Majesty like Yu Gan and the others.

Because the identity of the king of Nanyang is extremely sensitive in Daqi, and the political overtones on him are extremely strong.

Officials facing upward must be very taboo about this, how could they easily show their faces.Zhang Tingyu's identity is so special that people are watching his every move.

Now, do you think that when you are the prime minister of the court, you come here to welcome a prince in person?

Such a move will undoubtedly send a lot of signals to many other people.Yu Gan wondered why Ting Yu came here suddenly.

It stands to reason that it cannot be the meaning of the emperor.

Yu Gan looked around again, and there was no one else, not even a single member of the clan.Now the people who greeted them looked lively, but they were actually very imaginary.

If it wasn't for Zhang Xiang's arrival, it would be obvious that he looked down on the prince's configuration.

Without thinking too much, Yu Gan walked directly into the pavilion, smiled and nodded towards the palace, then glanced at Zhang Tingyu, hesitated for a moment, and still planned to greet him.

There is no way, the great kindness I just received, even if the situation is not right now, I have to do this with others.

"I've seen Zhang Xiang, why did Zhang Xiang come here?" Yu Gan walked over with a smile, bowed his hands to Zhang Tingyu and said with a smile.

Zhang Tingyu looked back at Yu Gan, and smiled softly, "I have heard for a long time that the prince of Nanyang loves the people like a son, and I am curious, so I came here to have a look."

Yu Gan smiled and stopped asking.Zhang Tingyu also looked back at Gu Qingyuan and Gongsun Yan, nodded slightly, and then remained silent.It's just that there is a bit more thoughtful look on his face.

Just like that, everyone just stood there quietly without any communication, just staring at the distance of the official road.

It was mid-afternoon, and the sun had begun to dip slightly towards the west.On both sides of the broad official road, there are luxuriant grasses, stretching as far as the eye can see.The surrounding farmlands are criss-crossed, and the busy farmers seem to be dotted on it.

Yu Gan, who is used to seeing the complicated and crowded Daqi, can't help but yearn for such a primitive and rough scenery.

While appreciating the beautiful scenery, Yu Gan couldn't help thinking about the situation of King Nanyang in his mind.

Now everyone in the world knows that this ambitious king of Nanyang, who occupies the land of three states, is famous not only in Daqi, but also in surrounding countries.

The Nanyang king's surname is Zhu Mingchen, and he is the most powerful king with a different surname since the founding of the Great Qi.

He was born in a bitter and cold place in Xihai Prefecture. When he was ten years old, there were only others left in his family and he became a Liuer.With a young body, he traveled thousands of miles and took three years to reach the border of Xihai Prefecture.

No one knows how he came to the border, the journey of thousands of miles, over the mountains, everyone can't believe that such a child can survive such three years.

How he came all the way, including what supported him to come to the border to serve as a soldier, there are various reasons for this, no one knows, and Zhu Yu has never told anyone.

When he came to the border, he was just a dark and silent boy.

It was a snowy day, goose feather heavy snow.

Before Zhu Yu came to a camp wearing thin clothes, this was the Tiger Camp with the highest combat power in the Western Navy.

Before he came to camp, he said he wanted to enlist.

The 13-year-old Zhu Yu was so skinny and was driven away by soldiers who didn't know why. The silent Zhu Yu ran directly to the wolf cages on the right and opened a cage.

A snow wolf ran out.

Just like that, the 13-year-old Zhu Yu fought the snow wolf with his thin body in front of the soldiers of the entire camp.

In the end, he killed the snow wolf with his teeth. His left leg was broken, his right arm was twisted, and his chest and back were covered with rotten flesh.Blood flowed.

Then, he braced himself, stood trembling in the wind and snow, and continued to say those four words, I want to join the army.

The people of Xihai Prefecture are fierce and fierce, and they are extremely martial. Looking at this thin young man in front of him with a rock-like hard expression on his face, no one is moved.

At that time, it happened that the left officer of the Western Navy came to inspect the Huzi Camp and witnessed the fight between the young man and the snow wolf.

He brought Zhu Yu back to the headquarters.

The 13-year-old was in bed for four months.

During this period, the rotten flesh on my body was broken four times, all of which were gouged out by the military doctor with a knife. At that time, the camp was short of sputum.

All the medical technicians accompanying the army went to the front line again, and the young man endured the pain of gouging out the flesh several times in a rational and clear-headed manner.

No tears, no yelling, just a whimper in the throat.

Because of this, Zhu Yu suffered a sequelae, the vocal cords were irreversibly damaged, and his voice has been hoarse ever since.

During the four months in bed, no one came to see him, except the doctor who changed his medicine.

He knew that if he didn't make it through, he would be thrown directly into the snow outside.Western Navy does not accept waste.

Therefore, during those four months, the teenager had only one thought, to survive and then enlist in the army.

Later, he carried it over, and on the day he recovered, Zuo Shen came and brought him by his side to teach him personally.

At the age of 13, Zhu Yu formally joined the Western Navy and became an ordinary soldier.

At the age of 16, Zhu Yu returned to Huziying and became the captain of Huziying.

At the age of 20, Zhu Yu led the Huziying to make great achievements. A thousand Huziying soldiers were like a sharp arrow, tearing apart the Dawan army that was invading at that time.

The head of the Dawan Army was picked up by Zhu Yu.

A 20-year-old young man, riding a steed, holding a long gun with the corpse of the general of Dawan Army stuck in the end of the gun, galloped on the battlefield.

After that battle, Dawan retreated, and all 32 surrounding cities fell into the hands of the Western Navy.Included in the Daqi section.

Zhu Yu became famous in one battle.

(It's the end of the month, ask for a monthly ticket, brothers.)
