Chapter 744: Unknown Enemy
The inside is shiny with silver, and it is full of small silver things, and these small silver things are all like heavenly cows.
The longhorn is an ordinary insect that can be seen everywhere in the Southern and Northern Wei dynasties, but it can only be seen in a few warm basins in the Dangxiang and Western Regions.
Gulbu carefully picked one up with a piece of bamboo, the weight of this silver celestial cow is not light, like a solid, giving him the feeling that it is like a very clever craftsman carved with silver very carefully, vivid. It's just that what makes him a little incomprehensible is that each of the silver celestial bulls in this box seems to be different, not only the size is slightly different, but even the posture is different.
What kind of clever craftsman would love this insect so much that he made a box full of this silver celestial cow?
"These things are of different shapes, and they are so lifelike, as if someone had put a layer of silver on the body of this heavenly bull. "Sheba Hotaru also feels strange.
"This silver seems to be a bit special, I know that some Western Regions dynasties like to treat beetles as auspicious things, but in many classics, I have not seen any records of this kind of heavenly bull, I don't know what unique meaning this is. King Zance looked at Lin Yi, Bai Yuelu and the others who were also puzzled, so he asked Songren to pass this box of things first.
Even the horns on the head of these beetles are different shapes, these horns look very slender and easy to break, and there is no seam between the horns and the body of the beetle.
At this time, there were also several of his disciples outside, so he was not worried that these things would be accidentally damaged after being sent out.
Although even their own teachers could not read the history of this box of small things, the more this happened, the more excited the monks of Gulb and Songren became, for for them, what they knew and saw did not make them more happy, but the more unknown things they had, the more they could come into contact with the unknown world.
With a soft click, Gulb pulled out a latch and opened the second bronze chest.
The bronze box seems to be older, and it is not very well preserved, and the ornamentation on the bronze box has been covered with a full of mottled patina, and it is impossible to see what kind of pattern is under the patina.
In this box, there is a piece of clay-like thing, but the color is very peculiar, red, green, blue, and purple are intertwined, like a rainbow.
"Could this be the Medicine Emperor Land?"
Lin Yi was stunned, and then blurted out, he had read a record in this miscellaneous story, on some coastal islands in the East China Sea, there is an elixir called Yaohuang Flower, this elixir in addition to containing a large amount of heaven and earth aura, the medicinal power helps to strengthen the sea of qi, and it is also the best among the elixirs. This Yaohuang flower grows only on the Yaohuang soil, which is said to be a natural formation of seabed silt and submarine volcanic eruptions, and is only found in small quantities on those islands.
"I didn't expect General Lin to be so knowledgeable. β
King Zance looked at Lin Yi with some surprise, and said, "This is indeed the Medicine Emperor Land, in the Western Regions, this is also called the Five-Colored Land." General Lin, since you know that this is the Medicine Emperor Land, you must also know very well that this Medicine Emperor Land is only produced in a few special islands in the East China Sea of the Southern Dynasty, and the original islands were blocked by your Southern Dynasty near those islands, and the Medicine Emperor Flower also belongs to the Imperial Product, but in the troubled times before the two dynasties, some people stole and dug up, and later someone found that as long as the Medicine Emperor soil was dug up, even elsewhere, as long as the aura, temperature and water vapor were suitable, and there were seeds of the Medicine Emperor Flower, the Medicine Emperor Flower could be artificially planted out, so that the Medicine Emperor Land was also stolen and hollowed out. According to the exact records, the sum of several islands, the Medicine Emperor Land is only a few tens of catties, and most of it happens to be purchased by a merchant in the Western Regions, so there is a lot of inflow into the Western Regions. β
After a pause, he looked at the piece of soil that was as colorful as a rainbow with some regret, and said: "This piece of Medicine Emperor Land is at least six or seven catties, which is also very amazing, but the Medicine Emperor Flower has long been extinct, and this Medicine Emperor Land has never heard of being able to cultivate other kinds of elixirs, even if it has such an amazing weight, it is like chicken ribs." β
Lin Yi nodded, he naturally felt that it was a pity, it was just a natural and man-made disaster, and in all dynasties, I don't know how many amazing things disappeared in the world. is the current spiritual famine, and I don't know how many elixirs will be completely extinct.
This box of Medicine Emperor Land was also handed out, no matter whether it was useful or useless at this time, these things that had only been seen in some Zhiwei miscellaneous records appeared in front of him, which could be regarded as a real eye-opener.
As he spoke, Gurbu opened two more boxes, and none of the things in these two boxes Lin Yi and King Zantze and others recognized them, and all of them were given away.
One of the two boxes is sterling silver and the other is pure gold.
The sterling silver box is also lined with a white jade pad, on which the white jade mat is tied with a cowhide string with five small things like melon seeds, this melon seed-like little thing looks like neither gold nor iron, nor stone, but the weight is almost the same as gold and iron, very peculiar.
The pure gold chest was covered with the pattern of flying fish, but inside it was a pile of snow-white translucent scales, exuding a strange faint milky fragrance.
As soon as the fifth box was opened, he was stunned again, and there was a mild red light emitting from it, all of which were round beads.
The surface of the bead does not look hard, it looks like a layer of rubber, and the inside seems to be filled with liquid, giving people the feeling of fruit and large fish roe.
Obviously, this is something that can't be seen in the past, but at this moment, there are bursts of exclamations outside.
"What's going on out there?" Xia Ba Ying suddenly became curious, she knew that it was very likely that someone outside recognized the origin of several things before, and there should be something good among them. Otherwise, if it is the medicine soil of the Medicine Emperor Soil, which has become a chicken rib, it seems that it will not be able to cause such a movement.
Songren immediately sent the fifth box out, but at the same time brought back a monk younger than him.
The monk saluted to King Zantze, Lin Yi, Xia Pa Ying and the others, and could not hide his excitement, and said, "In addition to the five small things in the shape of melon seeds in the sterling silver box, the silver bull-shaped things and the contents of the pure gold box have all been judged by the origin. β
"What are they? Tell me quickly. His Holiness was overjoyed.
"The silver longhorn-like thing is called insect silver, it is a kind of heterogeneous longhorn beetle, that kind of longhorn is actually produced by our party, in the area of the Kuobajing hot spring, this kind of longhorn beetle is no different from the general longhorn when it becomes an adult, but it likes to eat a plant called silver whiskers in the hot spring, the juice of that plant is rich in unique heavy silver, this kind of longhorn beetle life is much longer than the average longhorn beetle, after four or five years of continuous sucking, it will slowly ossify in the body, all become this heavy silver texture, after it dies, this heavy silver slowly penetrates, and its whole body is like this silver castingγ β
The monk said happily: "The one who recognized this strange thing was an enshriner of the Yeli clan, he said that this thing is extremely rare, but in fact, the famous Demon Sect of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the reverse scale magic weapon refined by his subordinates, the main material is this insect silver, the reverse scale made of insect silver, has a unique characteristic of flowing against the true element, if it enters the body of the practitioner, the true element in the practitioner's body spontaneously rejects, and the impact goes up, but it accelerates this magic weapon upstream, and instantly recoils into the heart at an astonishing speed. β
"The Demon Sect's reverse scales are actually refined with this kind of thing?" Lin Yi and Bai Yuelu were suddenly taken aback.
"Why, you are very familiar with this magic weapon?" Xia Baying looked at the two of them so surprised, a little puzzled, she had never heard of such a thing as reverse scales.
"Speaking of familiarity, I'm afraid even those with reverse scales are not as familiar as him. Bai Yuelu couldn't help but shake her head and said.
Lin Yi nodded.
This is indeed not a boast, those subordinates of the Demon Sect who have reverse scales should not have been in the same body as him, and I don't know what it is like to walk in the flesh and blood of this magic weapon.
"So, it looks like you've been hit by this kind of magic weapon?" Xia Ba Ying guessed when she looked at his expression, she could imagine how terrifying it was when she heard that this magic weapon could go against the true element, but she knew that Lin Yi was not an ordinary cultivator, but she was not too surprised at this time.
"This kind of magic weapon is extremely powerful, even if it is a cultivator at the peak of the Divine Mind Realm, if it is not a special means, it is certain to die. Bai Yuelu said: "It's just that this kind of magic weapon was originally not refined, and there were not many of them in the hands of those people of the Demon Sect. β
"Since we have the main material, I don't know if we can imitate it. Xia Ba Ying glanced at her, "Is there a sample of this reverse scale?" β
"Yes, and even among the ordnance of our Tiece Army this time, there are Lianggong scales imitated by the Chengtian. Bai Yuelu said: "When the Tie Ce army arrives at the territory of Xifeng Hongqi, I will try to get people to contact the Chengtian, and when the time comes, let them imitate the craftsmen of the Lianggong scales, they must have studied this reverse scale." β
"That's very good. Xia Ba Ying's gaze turned to the monk again, and the monk was also astute, and immediately continued: "The contents of that pure gold chest look like fish scales, but in fact they are not fish scales, but the bones of a flying fish in an underground river. The fish is called nephrite fragrant flying fish, and in some large karst cave rivers, this fish can soar out to feed on flying insects. The carved pattern on the box was the way they fly, and this fish was very peculiar, except for some thin spines on its wings, and only the skeleton inside the skull. β
"This flying fish bone fragment itself does not have a large amount of heaven and earth aura condensation that can improve cultivation, but it contains a large amount of unique aura that can change the true element characteristics of the cultivator, as long as a sufficient number of this flying fish bone fragment is refined, the cultivator's true element will get a large bonus when using some cold vitality means. The monk himself seemed to be a little incredulous, and after a pause, he said: "This is what a royal family in the Western Regions Alliance said, he said that the reason why he knew was because there was a princess in their kingdom who happened to get some, but the number was not enough, so after refining, it did not become the ice muscle fairy bone in the record, but what this kind of thing was, they were sure." β
"Ice Muscle Fairy Bone?"
Bai Yuelu frowned slightly, but she had also seen records of these four words in some ancient books in the Northern Wei Imperial Palace, "Could it be that this thing is also called fairy spirit jade?"
"What, have you seen the relevant records?" Lin Yi said curiously: "Could it be that this thing has another name for fairy spirit jade?"
Bai Yuelu said: "I have only seen records that say that a kind of fairy spirit jade itself is not cold, but when combined with the cultivator's true element, it can not only keep the face, but also condense the spiritual rhyme in the true element, and can use the true yuan method of coldness." β
"Is there another name for fairy spirit jade, and whether the two are the same thing, I'll go out and ask later." The monk said respectfully: "The Western Regions royal family said that this flying fish bone piece can be swallowed and refined like an ordinary elixir, but he can't be sure how many of these flying fish bone pieces need to be refined to form an ice muscle fairy bone." β
"How, you'll see. β
Xia Ba Ying sighed, looked at Lin Yi and said, "This thing can only be cheap for you again, if any of you refine the ice muscle immortal bone, there is a surplus, but you can give it to me again." β
Lin Yi was slightly stunned and said, "You also give up this?"
Xia Ba Ying smiled and said, "Of course I'm not happy, it's just that all my cultivation is the true yuan method of fire control, could it be that after so many years of hard cultivation, for the sake of these things, I can't change the method and re-cultivate?"
"Thank you for the gift. Lin Yi is not entangled, the richness of this Tuoba Clan's treasury has far exceeded their imagination, just these few boxes at the mouth have already gained a lot, and they don't know what amazing treasures will appear after all the things are counted.
At this moment, an eager voice came from outside, "Tianqi Sheng of the Xifeng clan asked to see General Lin, and the remnants of the Tuoba clan were found in the tunnels under the city, suspected to be Tuoba Xiongxin, and a battle had taken place." β
"Huh?"
Xia Ba Ying's eyes flashed violently, and she turned around and walked out first, followed by Lin Yi, Bai Yuelu and the others, only to see Tian Qisheng and several generals of the Xi Feng clan waiting outside with anxious expressions.
Tian Qisheng and Lin Yi were already very familiar with each other, and when he saw Lin Yi come out, he was not polite, and said continuously: "There are not many people, it seems that there are less than a hundred people, but there are many powerful cultivators among them, and the subordinates who have sealed their names are intercepted in the tunnel, and there are many casualties, but they can't help them for a while." β
"Where are they underground now?" Lin Yi raised his eyebrows slightly and immediately asked.
Tian Qi Sheng immediately said: "It's in the underground cave not far west of the City Lord's Mansion. β
"Then King Raupa and you are here to continue to count the antiquities. Shaba Ying said this to King Zantse and King Galdan behind him, and then turned his head to look at Lin Yi: "Let's go over and have a look?"
"Let's go over and have a look. Lin Yi nodded, but his brows were already wrinkled unconsciously: "If it is really Tuoba Xiongxin, he stays in this city underground and does not leave, maybe there will be some strange methods." β
"Do you lead the way or do you have the rest of the people lead the way?" Xia Ba Ying glanced at Tian Qisheng, asked this sentence first, and then said: "It's most convenient to sit on my Flame Floating Slaughter." β
"Don't you save some true yuan?" Lin Yi originally wanted to say this, but when the words came to his mouth, he reacted instantly, Xia Ba Ying had traded with the general of Tuyuhun before, and obtained a lot of Tianxin Bodhi, before Xia Ba Ying used the flame floating slaughter to send him to the army of the fine seal, the original true yuan had been consumed violently, but at this time, Xia Ba Ying's body was still full of true yuan, presumably he had already taken this elixir.
Tian Qisheng didn't expect this layer, he subconsciously felt that the true yuan was precious, even if it was just one more person, Xia Ba Ying's true yuan loss would become more and more serious, so he immediately replied, "There is no need for anyone to lead the way, at the few entrances of the tunnels over there, the person who has sealed the name of the Ying has already lit a flame, and it is easy to see from the air." β
......
The flames of the dark green flames rose into the air again.
Amidst the cheers and shouts, the flame float seemed to be dragged by an invisible giant, sending out a long trail of flames in the air.
Xia Baying's eyebrows and eyes were condensed with indescribable pride.
Every time she was on top of the Flame Float, when the Flame Float was soaring, she was more proud than when she was on the ground.
There is an old proverb in the party that only a real man can soar into the sky like an eagle.
The original meaning of this sentence in the party item is that any man must strive to be an eagle, have the courage to fight against the wind and snow, have a strong mind, don't be limited to the small world in front of him, and don't be a poor worm crouching on the ground.
However, this sentence of the party item abandoned all the women of the party from the beginning.
In the party, women are inherently humble and have little status at all.
But Xia Baying was just not convinced.
The flame floating slaughter of the Xiaba tribe was made by her, and she just wanted to tell all the party members that women can also fly in the sky like real eagles!
"Regardless of whether there is Tuoba Xiongxin among those people, he has formed an alliance with the fine seal Immortal earlier, and there is always a problem with letting the fine seal immortal arrange this matter under the city of Dar. Bai Yuelu's voice rang out.
Tian Qisheng said well, looking down from the sky, there were several bright bonfires burning on the west side of the City Lord's Mansion, and many black-armored soldiers gathered in that area, which was very conspicuous.
"What's the problem?"
Lin Yi also vaguely felt that something was wrong at this time, but he didn't think about it anymore, knowing that Bai Yuelu must have figured out something, so he asked directly.
"Under normal circumstances, why did Tuoba Xiongxin let the fine seal of the British name be arranged in the tunnels under the city? Unless he had already expected that a large army would attack the city of Dar, and the city of Dar might not be able to hold it at all, then the army of the fine seal of the name of the name would be needed to attack from the underground. β
Bai Yuelu said: "But looking at the entire party, he will think that who will lead the army to come over and be able to break through the Darban City? Even if he knows the news of Xiaba Ying's personal conquest, but he knows exactly that the Xiaba Clan's coalition army has entered the territory of the Yeli Clan, he will definitely not think that we and Xifeng Hongqi will ally with her for a long time, and take 10,000 steps back and say, even if he is like a god and knows that the Xiaba Clan and our coalition army, will he think that Darban City will not be able to stop our coalition army at all?"
Lin Yi and Xia Ba Ying glanced at each other, both frowning, and felt that what Bai Yuelu said was indeed very reasonable.
"Tuoba Xiongxin doesn't know much about you. β
Bai Yuelu looked at Lin Yi, shook her head, and said, "So he would never have thought that a cultivator like you would be able to make his cultivators and army collapse so quickly. When we first entered the city before, he obviously didn't think much of Shaba Hotaru, obviously disdainful of the strength of the Shaba tribe, he would not think that the combined forces of the Shaba tribe could break through the city of Dar, and they needed to join forces with the army of the fine British name. β
Hearing this, Xia Baying's brows furrowed even deeper, and she said in a slightly cold voice: "So do you think that he arranged it like this in advance with the fine seal of Yingming, as if he was facing a great enemy, and the enemy he was prepared to face before was not us, but someone else?"
"I always thought something was wrong, but I really figured it out. The most problematic thing about this matter is that he had already made such arrangements months in advance, and a few months ago, even your Xiaba tribe had not made any changes, and I am afraid that even the army of General Achai Chen, who had allied with you, had not entered the territory of the party at all. Then why did he first form an alliance with the Seal of the Divine Name, and even prepare for the destruction of the city?" Bai Yuelu also said solemnly: "So he seconded almost all the powerful cultivators of the Tantric Sect early, and he needed the support of many powerful cultivators for such a move....The opponent he was originally going to face should not be us." β
"So it's very likely that the enemy he was waiting for has not come, but has waited for us. Thinking of the image of the army that had been sealed in the snow and then swarming like a tide, her eyes unconsciously narrowed into a line, "But as you said, looking at the entire party, it seems that no one can make him need to deal with it like this." β
"Could it be that again?"
Lin Yi's heart instantly remembered a person's name, and he was suddenly filled with an ominous premonition.
"Lord Demon Sect?" Bai Yuelu's face suddenly turned cold, and she felt the same feeling as Lin Yi in her heart at this time.
"There is a Demon Sect master everywhere. β
Lin Yi smiled bitterly and said something that he had always wanted to say in his heart.
"I think it seems that all the great conspiracies in the world seem to be related to this person, and this person seems to be everywhere. He shook his head, at this time he really felt a feeling of haunting, "And the Tuoba clan and the Northern Wei Dynasty are friendly, before the Northern Wei army borrowed the way, it should be the handiwork of the Tuoba clan, the Tuoba clan and the Northern Wei royal family are blood relations, in this way, the Tuoba clan should be close to the Northern Wei Emperor, but before the Demon Sect wanted to take the initiative to negotiate peace with the Southern Dynasty Emperor, although no one could figure out what he was doing, but if he took refuge in the Southern Dynasty, the Northern Wei Dynasty would naturally be in danger." He wanted to meet with the Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty, but was blocked by my senior brother and did not succeed. But in this way, his relationship with the emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty was naturally not good. β
"A character like him, I don't think he thinks much of the Northern Wei Emperor is in his eyes, and it is impossible for the Northern Wei royal family not to be wary of him, if he is not too important to the Northern Wei Dynasty and his own cultivation is too high, otherwise the Northern Wei Imperial Family would have moved him a long time ago. β
Xia Ba Ying sneered, "If you look at this, it is very likely to have something to do with him." β
"If I can meet Tuoba Xiongxin, I'm afraid I will know the truth. "This Flame Floating Slaughter was urged by Xia Ba Ying's True Yuan to fly in the air without slowness, but between these conversations, it was already close to Tuoba Xiongxin's City Lord's Mansion.
The bonfires on the west side of the City Lord's Mansion burned extremely vigorously, and the flames rushed up at least two zhang high, originally the sergeants around these campfires were very dense, but looking at this flame with a special color from a distance, these sergeants who had sealed their names knew that it was Xia Ba Ying's Flame Floating Slaughter, and they immediately let go of a large open space and let this Flame Floating Slaughter land.
"Tuoba Xiongxin is too treacherous, his map is extremely concealed and deceptive to us, and there is a dungeon underneath this. As soon as the Flame Floating Slaughter landed, a general under the seat of the fine seal Ying ran over, saluted Lin Yi and Xia Ba Ying angrily, and scolded.
"The dungeon?"
Xia Ba Ying sneered, she didn't save the slightest face for this high-ranking general under the fine seal Ying name, "What can be described as a palace must not be a small place, you mean, Tuoba Xiongxin opened the underground of this city to you before, but you didn't even notice that there was a hidden underground palace here?"
