This time the scholar breathed a sigh of relief, and those who were holding him loosened their hands naturally, no longer restricting his actions.
In fact, the soldiers were all dumbfounded by the twists and turns of the plot. Even their generals couldn't accept the twists and turns of the night, let alone the soldiers below.
The scholar stood up from the ground, shook the dust off his body, and walked in front of General Bai: "General, I know that I have offended you a lot in the past, but as a superintendent, you are often not in the army. You suspected that I was also a human being." It's normal. But now that the truth is revealed, and the general also puts the overall situation first, and ordered Cao Huai's military regulations to be dealt with, then can we get rid of the past and work together to fight against the enemy?"
General Bai was still a little uncomfortable when facing the scholar, but he didn't reach out to hit the smiling face, not to mention that the other party took the initiative to pass the steps for him to go down.
So Bai Hanxing switched the sword to his left hand, patted the scholar's shoulder with his right hand, and hugged him vigorously: "You are right, now that the truth has come to light, I will no longer be prejudiced against you. I misunderstood you before, and still Please don't take it to heart!"
The scholar was bound by that thick arm, making it difficult to breathe, and he had to keep a smile on his face: "Where is it, I am not the one who holds grudges."
Although both of them felt a little awkward in their hearts, they looked at each other and had a tacit understanding that they had never had before, because they had a common intention behind them-this hug was a necessary move to stabilize the morale of the army.
The left deputy commander of the White Tiger Army was bewitched by the monster clan and became a spy.Once this kind of thing spreads, everyone in the army will be in danger, and they will be suspicious of everyone around them. No one is sure that the only one who was bewitched was Deputy Commander Cao.
The two of them cleared up their previous suspicions and shook hands to make peace, which showed that the top leaders of the White Tiger Army would not doubt the people around them for no reason, and also set an example for the soldiers below.
Afterwards, General Bai turned to Si Wuxiu again: "Master Si just now is very precise and proficient in forcing the Gu worms out, I wonder if you have a way to judge whether the Gu worms are lurking in the human body?"
Si Wuxiu pursed her lips and said: "Indeed, my maid has some medical skills, she can prepare a medicine to help the general identify people with Gu in his body."
As he spoke, he looked at Yuhe.
Yuhe immediately came over with her big medicine box on her back: "General, I wonder if I can borrow your Huotouying to use? I just need to boil this medicine in a big pot to make soup and distribute it to the soldiers below. One bowl is enough It can force Gu insects out."
General Bai was overjoyed: "That's a good thing! Girl, just let go and do it. After a while, I will order everyone from Huotouying to cooperate with the girl to make medicine. Anyone who dares to disrespect the girl will be dealt with according to the military regulations!"
In this way, the last haze hanging over the White Tiger Army also dissipated.
General Bai thanked Si Wuxiu, Tang Ning and the others again and again. If they didn't find another person who was planning to go out secretly to report tonight, I'm afraid they would really wrong the scholar.
"May I ask..."
After General Bai executed the real spy Cao Huai on the spot, he ordered a few people to stay and clean up, and then invited others into the big tent to drink a cup of shocking tea: "How do you know that the spy is someone else, and the pigeon monster caught?"
Because they have already excluded scholars...Of course, this cannot be said directly to General Bai, so Tangning took out the lines she had prepared: "Actually, we only guessed that there might be more than one spy, so we guarded three places. Thank you, General, for trusting us and telling us about the weaknesses of our defense."
In fact, Si Wuxiu had already expected that this time the spies would take advantage of the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone—while letting the scholar take the blame, while taking advantage of him to attract the attention of General Bai and others, release the person who actually delivered the letter.
At that time, Xiao Hei also felt the inner alchemy of the demon clan, and thought it was like the situation of the centipede spirit, so he ran very fast, and almost took out the inner alchemy of the pigeon demon.
General Bai was even more moved when he heard the words: "Thanks to everyone being here this time, I am a foolish person, and I was almost used by someone to kill a good person by mistake. Thinking about it now, I am really ashamed and terrified..."
"The general is also deceived by others. After all, it is difficult for anyone to doubt the cronies around him. Now that Cao Huai's conspiracy has been revealed, is it not a blow to the general?" Pull the tea leaves inside, "Northwest monsters have sinister intentions, whether this spy is discovered or not, he can disrupt the White Tiger Army from within."
"That's not the case! The monster race is really disgusting!" General Bai gritted his teeth in hatred. After this incident, he would not dare to trust his cronies completely in the future, lest someone like Cao Huai appear again.
"It's getting late, and the general has been exhausted all night, so let's go to bed early." Si Wuxiu stood up, "There are also many things to do tomorrow, the general must take care of his health."
The identity of the spies in the White Tiger Army must be made public. Although Cao Huai has been executed, his subordinates still have to interrogate him carefully. General Bai has a lot to do.
That's why he didn't keep everyone. After they all left the big tent, Bai Hanxing propped his forehead dejectedly, covering his face that seemed to be ten years old due to grief and disappointment.
On the way back, Tangning kept looking at Si Wuxiu.
"Why is Ah Ning looking at me like this?" Although Si Wuxiu didn't look sideways, she curled her lips slightly, obviously noticing Tangning's gaze.
"You really dare to think and do it. You can even come up with such a risky plan!" Thinking of the arrangements for this evening, Tangning couldn't help feeling excited, exhilarated, happy, relieved, and so on. She couldn't help but pat Si Wuxiu hard. ,"Good for you!"
Si Wuxiu was caught off guard by his slap, and quickly pulled Tangning back. He took a half step back with one leg, and led the people in a circle in midair. When his feet stabilized, Tangning was already half circled in arms.
Tangning: "..." He just patted the other person, why did he hug him suddenly.
"Actually, Ah Ning has good eyesight. I noticed that the scholar's armor had been tampered with, so I could deduce the other party's real intentions." Si Wuxiu looked down at Tangning, facing his nose.The words spoken are quite normal, but the posture and tone are extremely ambiguous.
Tangning couldn't help but look away from the other's thin lips, "That's right, I have sharp eyes."
Not only did Tangning have good dynamic vision, but he also had a good memory. Although he only glanced at the scholar's armor, he inadvertently remembered how many pieces of armor there were on it.When the scholar came back from the meeting, he had an extra piece of armor on his body, so he would naturally find it strange.
Then, Tangning found the bamboo piece.
Not only the new marching route was written on the bamboo piece, but also the distribution, number of people, and equipment of each battalion of the White Tiger Army were written clearly.
If this was stolen and obtained, the scholar would not be able to argue with a hundred words, and he would surely die.
At that moment, Si Wuxiu proposed to use the trick and ask the scholar to forge another piece of bamboo to stick on the same position on the armor.
But the bamboo slices are easy to find, and the dyeing is not difficult, but what should I rewrite on it?
The scholar didn't want to write anything at first, but Si Wuxiu said: "This will reveal that you are planning to plan, and it will appear that you have deep scheming and plans in advance. General Bai didn't trust you in the first place, and after this incident, he will definitely plan for the old man. This person is extremely guarded, if you want to get closer to him in the future, you can't be too smart."
When the scholar thought about it, it was indeed the truth.
So what do you want to write on the bamboo slice?
At this time, Tang Ning contributed his elder brother's box of "Farewell to My Brother": "The poems you usually write must be very good at hand, so if you come up with something different, you can barely explain why you hid it. It's on me."
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
The scholar was very grateful to Tang Ning at the time, so he took a piece of bamboo and began to copy it, only to feel that something was wrong.
But it was too late at that time, and he had to bite the bullet and copy the entire poem.
But now it seems that the effect of his elder brother's poems is quite good, at least no one looks at the scholar. Although there is a strange look in the eyes of everyone, there is no way to explain it, but there is no doubt.
Recalling this, Tangning couldn't help but smiled at Si Wuxiu again: "Brother, if he knows, he might be very angry." Her work was labeled with someone else's name or something.
"I don't think he would mind." Si Wuxiu's eyes were deep, his breathing was hot, and his lips were almost touching Tangning's.
"You're not my big brother, how do you know he won't mind?" Tangning looked up at him.
Si Wuxiu sighed: "When you look at me like this, there is no one who will not be soft-hearted." Let alone people from Tangjiabao.
As long as I can help my precious brother, no matter if it is Brother Tang or Second Brother Tang, they will act desperately, sometimes making Si Wuxiu feel a little jealous.
Those eyes are exactly the same as those of a little fox, with sparkling water, hesitant to speak, when looking at people like this, few people can harden their hearts to reject him.
"Huh?" Tangning looked at him in confusion, but Si Wuxiu covered her eyes and gagged her mouth.
This time it's not just a hug, but a kiss!
Tang Ning was a little dizzy from being kissed. After a long time, she couldn't resist the other party's enthusiasm, so she had to "collab" with classmate Si.
The scholar who was following them turned his head stiffly to one side, and looked at Yu He and Lei Peng again, and found that both of them seemed to be familiar with each other, and they behaved very naturally, obviously quite experienced.
It seems that it is not an easy task to mix with the young master!
The scholar waited and waited, but he still couldn't see the separation of the two, so he couldn't help it: "Cough, excuse me, both of you, that..."
Si Wuxiu frowned, and looked back at him: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"That..." The scholar felt chills all over his body, and his body, which had become hot-blooded after what happened at night, now seemed to be poured ice water over his head. He could only stammer and say, "I don't intend to disturb you." You two, there is still one doubt left, I hope the young master can clear it up for me."
"What else is there?" Si Wuxiu asked impatiently.
"That is, can you show me the handwritten letter found from Cao Huai's men?" the scholar asked.
He wanted to know how much Cao Huai had revealed so that the White Tiger Army could make timely adjustments.
The incident happened suddenly just now, neither the scholar nor General Bai had time to read the letter, and now that everyone has been executed, the handwritten letter is not that important.
"Oh, this letter is actually a fake." Tangning smiled sheepishly, and handed the folded paper to the scholar, "That pigeon demon is too cunning. We stuffed it into our mouths and swallowed it. The situation was urgent, so we had no choice but to fool around with a piece of paper. We thought that Cao Huai would confront us and deal with it with our brains, but we didn’t expect him to admit it like that.”
Admitting that there is this letter is tantamount to admitting that he has a problem. Cao Huai also inadvertently saved Tangning from having to explain himself.
"Is this all right?" The scholar was taken aback by their audacity. He himself was not a person who followed the rules, but in front of Tangning and Si Wuxiu, he felt that he was completely honest.
"But when you interrupted, I seem to remember something that we forgot..." Tangning scratched her head and thought for a while, before suddenly opening her eyes, "It's broken, my second brother is still standing guard!"
After finishing speaking, he hurried to the place where Second Brother Tang was squatting. There were so many things that happened just now, he actually forgot!
When his brother finds out later, he will squat in the corner resentfully again.
……
After working all night, Tangning felt that he had just fallen asleep and was still in a daze when he was awakened by a loud noise. He struggled to think about it, but was held down by Si Wuxiu: "It's nothing important You need to sleep first, Aning."
Tangning muttered something, rolled over and fell asleep again.
Si Wuxiu helped him tuck the quilt up, pressed a kiss on his lips, looked at him tenderly for a while, then got up and went outside the account.
"What's the matter?" Si Wuxiu had a cold face when facing other people, and everyone was used to it.
Yuhe frowned, and replied: "I prepared the medicine last night, and distributed it to the soldiers of the White Tiger Army this morning, and found that there were quite a few people with neutrophils. General Bai was very angry when he heard about it. Lock up these people separately and continue to investigate thoroughly."
Si Wuxiu glanced at her: "But if you come to me at this time, there must be something you don't agree with with General Bai?"
"I think there are too many people." Yu He hesitated, "If you want to plant spies in the army, a high-ranking Deputy Commander Cao is enough. If you develop so many spies among the lower-level soldiers, it is easy to be discovered. Said, there is no useful news, Yaozu should not do such a thankless thing."
Although the monster races all have animal shapes, it doesn't mean that their brains are not good.
"Your analysis is reasonable." Si Wuxiu pondered, "Have you found any other monster races in the army?"
"General Bai has recovered the formation that has been tampered with. Except for the pigeon monster, no other monster race has been found in the army." Yu He shook her head and said.
"Normal. Pigeons fly fast and know their way. If you want to send a message, it's enough to have such a person." Si Wuxiu said.
"Young master, then..."
"Take me to meet that pigeon demon first, maybe from his mouth, you can solve your doubts just now." Si Wuxiu looked at Yuhe.
Yuhe nodded: "The pigeon demon was imprisoned in a prisoner-of-war camp. General Bai spared his life because he wanted to kill him in front of the demon clan in the future to boost his morale. I didn't expect this decision to be right. , this subordinate really can’t understand why so many low-level soldiers have been bewitched, so let’s wait for him to solve the confusion.”
Si Wuxiu looked indifferently: "Actually, you and Murong Du have already discussed this issue, haven't you? Because the two of you have different opinions, you had no choice but to ask me to come here."
Yuhe coughed dryly and lowered her head: "Nothing can be hidden from the young master's eyes."
"It's not easy for you to work together to find out the way to force out the sub-gu in a short period of time. I won't blame you." Si Wuxiu said, "But before I ask the pigeon demon, I want to hear from you. view."
Yu He said: "This subordinate thinks that those sub-gus might be given to General Bai, but it is possible that General Bai escaped unharmed and did not eat the meal prepared for him, but instead distributed them to his soldiers."
"What does Murong Du think?"
"Young Master Murong said that Cao Huai has no ability to play Gu. These sub-gus were eaten by mistake. There must be a source for the sub-gus. Maybe the snake demon also planted such Gus." After Yu He finished speaking, she looked at Si again. Wuxiu wanted to judge which one he preferred from the expression of his young master.
It's a pity that the snake demon has also been beheaded by General Bai, otherwise they would still be able to ask about Gu worms.
Yuhe looked at it for a long time, but Si Wuxiu still had that indifferent expression, and he really couldn't see what he was thinking.
In this world, only Young Master Tang could make the young master's facial expression richer. In Tangning's absence, he had such an unpredictable appearance.
"Go to see the pigeon demon first." Si Wuxiu didn't say anything in the end, which made Yuhe feel a little disappointed.
Maybe it was too obvious, so Si Wuxiu turned around and said to her: "Do you like Murong Du? Say you don't like it, and you always discuss poisonous prescriptions with him; say you like it, and think about it." You can beat him in this way, but you need to know that the Murong family is better in terms of poisonous Gu, isn't it hard for you to strive for victory in this area?"
Yu He was enlightened when she heard this, and opened her mouth wide: "Young master, from what you said, the relationship is really complicated!"
The corner of Si Wuxiu's mouth curled into an extremely slight arc: "That's natural, you still have to learn."
Yuhe immediately admired Si Wuxiu again, thinking that the young master deserves to be the one who can make Young Master Tang fall in love with him, and the experience of those who have heard it is definitely right!
Affected by the power of the demon emperor's robe, the pigeon demon has not recovered its human form after a day, which is worse than Gu Le's morality. Fortunately, he has recovered his human speech, and he no longer screams "coo coo coo".
Considering that the monster's body is a pigeon, General Bai didn't lock him in an ordinary prison, but in a refined iron cage to prevent him from using the gap between the cages to escape.
When the pigeon demon saw Si Wuxiu, it jumped back a few steps in fright, and was so nervous that it spread its wings to fly.
However, the birdcage was very strong, so it couldn't fly out. Seeing it with Si Wuxiu's indifferent eyes, he didn't dare to make a fuss anymore. He clamped his wings and stood in the same place cowardly: "Hey... I have already explained what I have to explain. , Heroes, please be merciful!"
Offending the owner of the Yaohuangpao is basically going against all the Yaozu. This is more frightening than being a spy, and I regret it.
So it knows everything without saying anything, and is afraid that His Majesty the Demon Emperor in the future will be dissatisfied with it, not only will it be expelled from the demon status, but also its clansmen and even the descendants will be disliked.
It took more than an hour for this interrogation. When Si Wuxiu hurried back, Tangning had already finished her breakfast, "Where did you go? I couldn't find you after I woke up. I wanted to have dinner with you." ..."
"It's too late, Aning, we have to leave quickly!" Si Wuxiu's face was more serious than before.
Tangning had never seen him so nervous and anxious, so she held him back first, "Just tell me slowly what happened."
"I'm afraid the sweet spring water has been tampered with." Si Wuxiu frowned, still unable to hide her self-blame and anger, "We'll explain the details when we get on the road, pack up our things first, and we'll set off in half an hour. "
"Half an hour? How fast?" Tangning asked in surprise, "But we can reach Wutupo as long as we follow the army for another five or six days."
"That's too late." Si Wuxiu shook his head.
"My second brother..."
"Lei Peng has been sent to inform. The Second Young Master is a person who abides by the contract. When the time comes, he will definitely come to join us." Si Wuxiu said, "Yuhe also went to inform General Bai and the scholar for me."
Just as he finished speaking, Second Brother Tang's voice came from outside: "A-Ning! What's going on here? Why is Si suddenly in a hurry to leave?"
Oh, his second brother didn't wait for half an hour, he had already finished packing and came to look for his younger brother.
"Of course it's something related to Aning, so I'm so anxious." Si Wuxiu said to Tang Ding who opened the tent and came in, "I will explain the rest on the road." @无限好文,全在晋江文学城
"Okay, then I'll ask my disciples to count the horses, prepare dry food, and get ready to go!" Second Brother Tang hurriedly left after hearing this, without any doubt that Si Wuxiu would lie.
As long as it's about Tangning, Si Wuxiu, like the two elder brothers of the Tang family, won't make fun of it.
On this point, Brother Tang thought that he could still trust Classmate Si, so he was even more forthright than Tangning.
Only Tangning didn't understand, "The scholar promised to be our guide, so you don't want it?"
Now is a good time for the scholar to re-enter the White Tiger Army, and it is impossible to leave the camp. If they set off at this time, they will not be able to get the scholar's help.
Although Tangning didn't care much about this, Si Wuxiu was a person who never lost money in business. They did such a big favor to the scholar. According to his temperament, he always wanted to get some benefits from the scholar.
But this time, Si Wuxiu was a little flustered.
Tangning had never seen Si Wuxiu like this before, he couldn't help but hold the other's hand, and looked straight into Si Wuxiu's eyes: "Is the matter very difficult?"
"Actually, it's nothing. With the strength of the two of us, we can always solve it..."
Before Si Wuxiu finished speaking, Tangning opened her mouth and bit him, and stared, "It's nothing? Then why are your hands a little cold, your eyes a little fluttering, and your heart beating a little fast?"
Si Wuxiu was silent for a moment, then suddenly hugged Tangning tightly.
The force was so heavy that it seemed that he wanted to rub the person into his own flesh and blood, so that he could use his own flesh and blood to block all disasters for him.
"Hey……"
"A'Ning, I'm sorry." Si Wuxiu said in a muffled voice.
"Si Wuxiu, do you know that 'I'm sorry' and 'Let's talk' are the opening words for breaking up." Tangning pushed his head against his forehead, "Don't use it if you don't know, understand?"
Si Wuxiu nodded in a daze.
"Very good, then after we leave, you can explain it carefully." Tangning patted his cheek, "Now pack up with me, and clean up your expression."
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
After finishing speaking, Tangning smiled at him, and pulled Si Wuxiu and him to put the things in the tent into the mustard stone.
When everything was settled, everyone bid farewell to the members of the White Tiger Army in a hurry, and set off with the route map drawn by the scholar.
In the vast yellow sand, a group of more than 20 riders rode their horses on the road.When resting halfway, Si Wuxiu finally told a very serious thing he learned from the pigeon demon.
"According to my speculation, Wutupo should also be a place to seal demons." Si Wuxiu said, "However, this seal does not seem to be made by the Six Saints. It has existed for a longer time than that, so only sweet springs are left in the northwest Water legend."
Ganquan water is as famous in the northwest as the Wanyao Pagoda. It is said that drinking a sip of sweet spring water can make people feel full of energy.
However, there is a lack of water in the desert, and the vicinity of Wutupo is a place where it is very easy to get lost. If travelers who are short of water are lucky enough to find a sweet spring, they will naturally pass on the spring water in a miraculous way.So over time, everyone felt that this legend was a bit exaggerated.
"I heard from the pigeon demon that the seal of Wutupo was formed by the eyes of a certain ancient monster. Its eyes are the eyes of the array, which can purify all things, so it can make the spring water clean, and even the herbs that grow by the water They can purify water." Si Wuxiu continued, "But recently Huanglong heard about the seal from somewhere, and sent someone to raise the spirit eye from Wutupo."
Brother Tang said angrily: "Didn't he deliberately destroy the seal of the Demon God?"
"That's right, that's why the Demon God can throw Zi Gu into the spring water. Anyone, monsters, and animals who drink the sweet spring water will be planted with Zi Gu." Si Wuxiu sighed.
"If the formation eyes are destroyed, wouldn't the demon god's power become stronger?" Tangning asked worriedly.
"It's more than that. After the spiritual eyes are taken out, I'm worried that Ganquan will no longer be Ganquan..." This is what Si Wuxiu finds most troublesome. The three herbs that Tangning needs are indispensable, and Ganquan water is one of them. one.
So he wanted to feel Wutupo as soon as possible to see if the spring water could be extracted again.
"Theoretically speaking, the spiritual eye is just a formation eye. Although the lack of formation eyes will speed up the release of the seal, it will take some time to completely destroy such a large formation. Maybe the sweet spring water will still be effective." Si Wuxiu frowned. .
"No wonder you left as soon as you said you would, in such a hurry." Tangning glanced at him, no wonder he would say "I'm sorry" to herself in the tent, obviously after handing over Colonel Hao and the Snake Demon to General Bai He just left, but he still agreed to the scholar's exchange and went to help him catch the spies.
"You didn't know about the Northwest Huanglong coveting the spirit eye." Tangning held Si Wuxiu's hand and said, "What's more, what's the difference between going a few days earlier and a few days later? The water was swallowed by the snake demon and the soldiers when it reached the lower reaches, which means that this is no longer a matter of a day or two."
Based on this calculation, Zigu had been in the water for several months at least. At that time, they might have just passed the assessment of Tianxiang Seminary, and Tangning didn't even know her bloodline.
"You don't blame me for delaying you?" Si Wuxiu stared at him.
"Why are you to blame?" Tangning shook her head, there was no trace of blame on her face, and there was a hint of a smile on her face, "This matter has nothing to do with you, but you are more concerned about your own affairs, I am too happy. Even if you can't get the sweet spring water in the end, it doesn't matter, just think of a way, there is no unparalleled road!"
It really doesn't work, as my grandfather said, after 80 years of practice, he can always put his ears and tail back.
At that time, maybe they were all old men, maybe Tangning's hair was also bald.
"However, it's not too long before the eyes of the formation are destroyed. If you re-strengthen the seal, there may be a way to restore the sweet spring water." Si Wuxiu held Tangning's hand tightly, "I will definitely find a way to restore you!"
"Well, I believe you."
The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with sweetness.
Brother Tang lowered his head and drew a circle on the ground, then cleared his throat and said, "Go to strengthen the seal earlier, and the spring water that Aning needs will have a better chance of recovering. Then what are we waiting for, let's go!"
Tangning let go of Si Wuxiu's hand and quickly stood up, "Oh yes, we need to arrive at Wutupo as soon as possible to see if the formation can still be saved."
Although he didn't mind if he couldn't find it, it would be even better if he could find it!
No hope should be given up.
Si Wuxiu stretched his hand halfway, and almost kissed his sweetheart, but was interrupted by Brother Tang, and his body remained in an awkward position.
"Wuxiu, what are you still doing?" Tangning walked halfway and found that the person beside her was not there. When she turned her head, she saw that the person was still sitting where she was, feeling a little puzzled.
Si Wuxiu stood up as if nothing had happened: "It's nothing, I'll come right away."
As he said that, he exchanged a silent but gunpowder-like look with Tang Er Ge again.
Fortunately, everyone is a martial artist with good physical fitness. They rushed all the way, day and night, and finally arrived at Wutupo in the early morning of the third day.
Wutupo ravines are vertical and horizontal, and the depth is more than ten feet deep. When the wind and sand blow, the terrain will change again. It is not easy to find a spring from this place with treacherous terrain.
But everyone has a road map in hand, even if the terrain is changeable, they can find the correct road according to the compass and the vegetation along the way.
After searching for a long time, everyone finally saw a large piece of cattail grass before sunset.
"There is water here!" A disciple of Tangjiabao walked to the edge of the water excitedly, and was about to touch the water to drink, but Ge Liyan quickly stopped him, "There are Gu worms in this water, how dare you drink it? !"
Thinking about it, the disciple waved his hands in fright, and took off the water bag from his waist, taking two mouthfuls to quench his thirst.
Tangning and Si Wuxiu followed the water to find the source.Tangning looked at the surrounding scenery, and the more she looked, the more she frowned, "This area seems to be sealed. Every plant and tree is arranged in an orderly manner, which is very different from what Master taught me."
"It's not sealed by the same person, there will be more or less differences." Si Wuxiu comforted him, "But since they are all sealed, there should still be something in common."
"Yes." Tangning nodded, slowly recalling the memories passed down to him by Taoist Yushan, trying to find an alternative.
"They started to destroy it from here." Si Wuxiu walked to the spring first. "There is a stone formation by the water, which should be a way to hide the spring. After the destruction, the location of the spring will be exposed."
Tang Ning also walked over to look at the stone formation with him: "The technique of this formation is relatively ancient. According to the master's inheritance, the stone formation was created by the ancients, and his method of sealing the demon god also used stones. Inspiration from Stonehenge."
But it can't be ruled out that Master just likes stones more, who made him even a weapon like a jade mountain.
"People of later generations like to use talismans and formation disks, which are convenient and easy." Tangning straightened the stones one by one, and said to Si Wuxiu, "But if you think too much about shortcuts, it is easy to neglect self-cultivation. Master believes that today's It is difficult for warriors to reach the holy level because of laziness, so he prefers to imitate the way of the ancients."
"The master of the shrine is also quite an interesting person." Si Wuxiu said.
"If you saw him with your own eyes, you might not think so." Tangning glanced at him.
Master is an old man who knows astronomy first and geography second, and Si Wuxiu is also a top student. After the two meet, everyone talks half of what they say, and guesses the rest. How tiring.
Si Wuxiu kissed him on the lips: "You study the stone formation here, and I'll go to the spring to get water."
"Ah."
Si Wuxiu took a bamboo tube and came to the spring.
The spring could not feel any spiritual power at all, so he carefully filled some spring water in a bamboo tube.This special bamboo tube was soaked by Yuhe with medicinal herbs, within a short while, a layer of black sub-gu was deposited on the bottom of the water.
Si Wuxiu frowned, turned back to Tangning and said, "The spring has been polluted, even if those poisonous insects are filtered out, I'm afraid the water will no longer be sweet spring water, first try to seal it—"
Before Si Wuxiu could finish speaking, Tangning stood up in horror, "Wuxiu, get down!"
Si Wuxiu's pupils shrank slightly, and a bone-piercing chill came from behind him, his body took the lead in taking action, he quickly swept aside, and at the same time threw the bamboo tube in his hand!
Looking sideways while dodging, it turned out that what was behind him just now was a cloud of thick black smoke!The thick black smoke condensed into a bloody mouth, chasing and biting Si Wuxiu's back, trying to swallow him in one gulp!
Even though Si Wuxiu's reaction was quick, part of the black smoke still caught up to him. Just when the black smoke was about to touch Si Wuxiu, a golden light burst out from the white tiger armor, shaking the black smoke back.
At the same time, Tangning also rushed in front of the black smoke. The Demon Emperor's Robe carried him into the air, creating a terrifying wind, trying to blow the black smoke away.
The black smoke was broken up into countless Gu worms in an instant, so densely packed that it made one's scalp tingle.Then it condensed again and became more and more solid.
A desolate voice came out from the black smoke: "My enemy actually came to my door, hahahaha..."
"A'Ning, be careful!" Si Wuxiu quickly swung the green shadow sword to strike at the black shadow.
However, the black shadow has already condensed into the image of a tall man. He raised his hand lightly to block it, and grasped Si Wuxiu's sword: "Unfortunately, you want to use the seal to kill me, but I just can't die!"
"Let him go!" Tangning shot ten sleeve arrows at Moon Demon in a row. He couldn't care less about the enemy. After the sleeve arrows, ten thunderbolts followed.
The white tiger armor took the initiative to help Si Wuxiu block the destructive force brought by the thunder explosion. When Si Wuxiu opened his eyes from the blowing wind and sand, Tangning had already swung his long whip to attack the demon god.
Si Wuxiu tried to pull out his sword, but the opponent's hand didn't move at all. He gritted his teeth and gave up the Green Shadow Sword. Using his fingers to form a sword, he drew back three feet away, came to Tangning's side, and shot out sword energy in line with his attack.
The sword energy and the long whip hit the Moon Demon at the same time, but the Moon Demon didn't seem to be affected at all, and there was even a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth: "No, no, you are not the people I know... How many years have passed? 100 years, 200 years, or 1000 years?"
He looked at Si Wuxiu, and the emotion in his eyes turned to hatred: "Yuanshi! You use my flesh and blood to cultivate martial arts, become martial saints, and dominate the world. Aren't you guilty? Why haven't you been backlashed yet?!"
Tangning thought about it, and looked at Si Wuxiu.
Si Wuxiu only had fighting intent in his eyes. Hearing such shocking news, he didn't waver in the slightest. He even increased his internal strength, using the sword made of white tiger armor scabbard as a weapon, and shot out several sharp sword qi .
"A-Ning, the demon god this time is different from the ones I have encountered before." Si Wuxiu calmly analyzed Tangning, "Perhaps the power of the ancient seal has begun to weaken, and the sealing method is different. , the power of the demon god became stronger than ever seen before."
"That's right." Tangning nodded.
"So we must not let him leave here. This demon god does more than release poisonous insects and deceive people." Si Wuxiu calmly looked at the moon demon. Out of hatred, the latter took the green shadow sword It was pinched in half.
Tangning felt heartache seeing the Lv Ying Sword being broken. Even Xiao Hei lay on his shoulder, covering his eyes with pincers, unable to bear to watch.
But when Tangning turned her head, she found that Si Wuxiu's expression was extremely determined, and her eyes were rational and shone with light.
Because the other party was so firm, Tangning also gained confidence in her heart, and immediately recovered her emotions, "Then can you think of a way? Right now, the Moon Demon can't get away from the spring, although we have a way to deal with it
In fact, the soldiers were all dumbfounded by the twists and turns of the plot. Even their generals couldn't accept the twists and turns of the night, let alone the soldiers below.
The scholar stood up from the ground, shook the dust off his body, and walked in front of General Bai: "General, I know that I have offended you a lot in the past, but as a superintendent, you are often not in the army. You suspected that I was also a human being." It's normal. But now that the truth is revealed, and the general also puts the overall situation first, and ordered Cao Huai's military regulations to be dealt with, then can we get rid of the past and work together to fight against the enemy?"
General Bai was still a little uncomfortable when facing the scholar, but he didn't reach out to hit the smiling face, not to mention that the other party took the initiative to pass the steps for him to go down.
So Bai Hanxing switched the sword to his left hand, patted the scholar's shoulder with his right hand, and hugged him vigorously: "You are right, now that the truth has come to light, I will no longer be prejudiced against you. I misunderstood you before, and still Please don't take it to heart!"
The scholar was bound by that thick arm, making it difficult to breathe, and he had to keep a smile on his face: "Where is it, I am not the one who holds grudges."
Although both of them felt a little awkward in their hearts, they looked at each other and had a tacit understanding that they had never had before, because they had a common intention behind them-this hug was a necessary move to stabilize the morale of the army.
The left deputy commander of the White Tiger Army was bewitched by the monster clan and became a spy.Once this kind of thing spreads, everyone in the army will be in danger, and they will be suspicious of everyone around them. No one is sure that the only one who was bewitched was Deputy Commander Cao.
The two of them cleared up their previous suspicions and shook hands to make peace, which showed that the top leaders of the White Tiger Army would not doubt the people around them for no reason, and also set an example for the soldiers below.
Afterwards, General Bai turned to Si Wuxiu again: "Master Si just now is very precise and proficient in forcing the Gu worms out, I wonder if you have a way to judge whether the Gu worms are lurking in the human body?"
Si Wuxiu pursed her lips and said: "Indeed, my maid has some medical skills, she can prepare a medicine to help the general identify people with Gu in his body."
As he spoke, he looked at Yuhe.
Yuhe immediately came over with her big medicine box on her back: "General, I wonder if I can borrow your Huotouying to use? I just need to boil this medicine in a big pot to make soup and distribute it to the soldiers below. One bowl is enough It can force Gu insects out."
General Bai was overjoyed: "That's a good thing! Girl, just let go and do it. After a while, I will order everyone from Huotouying to cooperate with the girl to make medicine. Anyone who dares to disrespect the girl will be dealt with according to the military regulations!"
In this way, the last haze hanging over the White Tiger Army also dissipated.
General Bai thanked Si Wuxiu, Tang Ning and the others again and again. If they didn't find another person who was planning to go out secretly to report tonight, I'm afraid they would really wrong the scholar.
"May I ask..."
After General Bai executed the real spy Cao Huai on the spot, he ordered a few people to stay and clean up, and then invited others into the big tent to drink a cup of shocking tea: "How do you know that the spy is someone else, and the pigeon monster caught?"
Because they have already excluded scholars...Of course, this cannot be said directly to General Bai, so Tangning took out the lines she had prepared: "Actually, we only guessed that there might be more than one spy, so we guarded three places. Thank you, General, for trusting us and telling us about the weaknesses of our defense."
In fact, Si Wuxiu had already expected that this time the spies would take advantage of the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone—while letting the scholar take the blame, while taking advantage of him to attract the attention of General Bai and others, release the person who actually delivered the letter.
At that time, Xiao Hei also felt the inner alchemy of the demon clan, and thought it was like the situation of the centipede spirit, so he ran very fast, and almost took out the inner alchemy of the pigeon demon.
General Bai was even more moved when he heard the words: "Thanks to everyone being here this time, I am a foolish person, and I was almost used by someone to kill a good person by mistake. Thinking about it now, I am really ashamed and terrified..."
"The general is also deceived by others. After all, it is difficult for anyone to doubt the cronies around him. Now that Cao Huai's conspiracy has been revealed, is it not a blow to the general?" Pull the tea leaves inside, "Northwest monsters have sinister intentions, whether this spy is discovered or not, he can disrupt the White Tiger Army from within."
"That's not the case! The monster race is really disgusting!" General Bai gritted his teeth in hatred. After this incident, he would not dare to trust his cronies completely in the future, lest someone like Cao Huai appear again.
"It's getting late, and the general has been exhausted all night, so let's go to bed early." Si Wuxiu stood up, "There are also many things to do tomorrow, the general must take care of his health."
The identity of the spies in the White Tiger Army must be made public. Although Cao Huai has been executed, his subordinates still have to interrogate him carefully. General Bai has a lot to do.
That's why he didn't keep everyone. After they all left the big tent, Bai Hanxing propped his forehead dejectedly, covering his face that seemed to be ten years old due to grief and disappointment.
On the way back, Tangning kept looking at Si Wuxiu.
"Why is Ah Ning looking at me like this?" Although Si Wuxiu didn't look sideways, she curled her lips slightly, obviously noticing Tangning's gaze.
"You really dare to think and do it. You can even come up with such a risky plan!" Thinking of the arrangements for this evening, Tangning couldn't help feeling excited, exhilarated, happy, relieved, and so on. She couldn't help but pat Si Wuxiu hard. ,"Good for you!"
Si Wuxiu was caught off guard by his slap, and quickly pulled Tangning back. He took a half step back with one leg, and led the people in a circle in midair. When his feet stabilized, Tangning was already half circled in arms.
Tangning: "..." He just patted the other person, why did he hug him suddenly.
"Actually, Ah Ning has good eyesight. I noticed that the scholar's armor had been tampered with, so I could deduce the other party's real intentions." Si Wuxiu looked down at Tangning, facing his nose.The words spoken are quite normal, but the posture and tone are extremely ambiguous.
Tangning couldn't help but look away from the other's thin lips, "That's right, I have sharp eyes."
Not only did Tangning have good dynamic vision, but he also had a good memory. Although he only glanced at the scholar's armor, he inadvertently remembered how many pieces of armor there were on it.When the scholar came back from the meeting, he had an extra piece of armor on his body, so he would naturally find it strange.
Then, Tangning found the bamboo piece.
Not only the new marching route was written on the bamboo piece, but also the distribution, number of people, and equipment of each battalion of the White Tiger Army were written clearly.
If this was stolen and obtained, the scholar would not be able to argue with a hundred words, and he would surely die.
At that moment, Si Wuxiu proposed to use the trick and ask the scholar to forge another piece of bamboo to stick on the same position on the armor.
But the bamboo slices are easy to find, and the dyeing is not difficult, but what should I rewrite on it?
The scholar didn't want to write anything at first, but Si Wuxiu said: "This will reveal that you are planning to plan, and it will appear that you have deep scheming and plans in advance. General Bai didn't trust you in the first place, and after this incident, he will definitely plan for the old man. This person is extremely guarded, if you want to get closer to him in the future, you can't be too smart."
When the scholar thought about it, it was indeed the truth.
So what do you want to write on the bamboo slice?
At this time, Tang Ning contributed his elder brother's box of "Farewell to My Brother": "The poems you usually write must be very good at hand, so if you come up with something different, you can barely explain why you hid it. It's on me."
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
The scholar was very grateful to Tang Ning at the time, so he took a piece of bamboo and began to copy it, only to feel that something was wrong.
But it was too late at that time, and he had to bite the bullet and copy the entire poem.
But now it seems that the effect of his elder brother's poems is quite good, at least no one looks at the scholar. Although there is a strange look in the eyes of everyone, there is no way to explain it, but there is no doubt.
Recalling this, Tangning couldn't help but smiled at Si Wuxiu again: "Brother, if he knows, he might be very angry." Her work was labeled with someone else's name or something.
"I don't think he would mind." Si Wuxiu's eyes were deep, his breathing was hot, and his lips were almost touching Tangning's.
"You're not my big brother, how do you know he won't mind?" Tangning looked up at him.
Si Wuxiu sighed: "When you look at me like this, there is no one who will not be soft-hearted." Let alone people from Tangjiabao.
As long as I can help my precious brother, no matter if it is Brother Tang or Second Brother Tang, they will act desperately, sometimes making Si Wuxiu feel a little jealous.
Those eyes are exactly the same as those of a little fox, with sparkling water, hesitant to speak, when looking at people like this, few people can harden their hearts to reject him.
"Huh?" Tangning looked at him in confusion, but Si Wuxiu covered her eyes and gagged her mouth.
This time it's not just a hug, but a kiss!
Tang Ning was a little dizzy from being kissed. After a long time, she couldn't resist the other party's enthusiasm, so she had to "collab" with classmate Si.
The scholar who was following them turned his head stiffly to one side, and looked at Yu He and Lei Peng again, and found that both of them seemed to be familiar with each other, and they behaved very naturally, obviously quite experienced.
It seems that it is not an easy task to mix with the young master!
The scholar waited and waited, but he still couldn't see the separation of the two, so he couldn't help it: "Cough, excuse me, both of you, that..."
Si Wuxiu frowned, and looked back at him: "Why haven't you left yet?"
"That..." The scholar felt chills all over his body, and his body, which had become hot-blooded after what happened at night, now seemed to be poured ice water over his head. He could only stammer and say, "I don't intend to disturb you." You two, there is still one doubt left, I hope the young master can clear it up for me."
"What else is there?" Si Wuxiu asked impatiently.
"That is, can you show me the handwritten letter found from Cao Huai's men?" the scholar asked.
He wanted to know how much Cao Huai had revealed so that the White Tiger Army could make timely adjustments.
The incident happened suddenly just now, neither the scholar nor General Bai had time to read the letter, and now that everyone has been executed, the handwritten letter is not that important.
"Oh, this letter is actually a fake." Tangning smiled sheepishly, and handed the folded paper to the scholar, "That pigeon demon is too cunning. We stuffed it into our mouths and swallowed it. The situation was urgent, so we had no choice but to fool around with a piece of paper. We thought that Cao Huai would confront us and deal with it with our brains, but we didn’t expect him to admit it like that.”
Admitting that there is this letter is tantamount to admitting that he has a problem. Cao Huai also inadvertently saved Tangning from having to explain himself.
"Is this all right?" The scholar was taken aback by their audacity. He himself was not a person who followed the rules, but in front of Tangning and Si Wuxiu, he felt that he was completely honest.
"But when you interrupted, I seem to remember something that we forgot..." Tangning scratched her head and thought for a while, before suddenly opening her eyes, "It's broken, my second brother is still standing guard!"
After finishing speaking, he hurried to the place where Second Brother Tang was squatting. There were so many things that happened just now, he actually forgot!
When his brother finds out later, he will squat in the corner resentfully again.
……
After working all night, Tangning felt that he had just fallen asleep and was still in a daze when he was awakened by a loud noise. He struggled to think about it, but was held down by Si Wuxiu: "It's nothing important You need to sleep first, Aning."
Tangning muttered something, rolled over and fell asleep again.
Si Wuxiu helped him tuck the quilt up, pressed a kiss on his lips, looked at him tenderly for a while, then got up and went outside the account.
"What's the matter?" Si Wuxiu had a cold face when facing other people, and everyone was used to it.
Yuhe frowned, and replied: "I prepared the medicine last night, and distributed it to the soldiers of the White Tiger Army this morning, and found that there were quite a few people with neutrophils. General Bai was very angry when he heard about it. Lock up these people separately and continue to investigate thoroughly."
Si Wuxiu glanced at her: "But if you come to me at this time, there must be something you don't agree with with General Bai?"
"I think there are too many people." Yu He hesitated, "If you want to plant spies in the army, a high-ranking Deputy Commander Cao is enough. If you develop so many spies among the lower-level soldiers, it is easy to be discovered. Said, there is no useful news, Yaozu should not do such a thankless thing."
Although the monster races all have animal shapes, it doesn't mean that their brains are not good.
"Your analysis is reasonable." Si Wuxiu pondered, "Have you found any other monster races in the army?"
"General Bai has recovered the formation that has been tampered with. Except for the pigeon monster, no other monster race has been found in the army." Yu He shook her head and said.
"Normal. Pigeons fly fast and know their way. If you want to send a message, it's enough to have such a person." Si Wuxiu said.
"Young master, then..."
"Take me to meet that pigeon demon first, maybe from his mouth, you can solve your doubts just now." Si Wuxiu looked at Yuhe.
Yuhe nodded: "The pigeon demon was imprisoned in a prisoner-of-war camp. General Bai spared his life because he wanted to kill him in front of the demon clan in the future to boost his morale. I didn't expect this decision to be right. , this subordinate really can’t understand why so many low-level soldiers have been bewitched, so let’s wait for him to solve the confusion.”
Si Wuxiu looked indifferently: "Actually, you and Murong Du have already discussed this issue, haven't you? Because the two of you have different opinions, you had no choice but to ask me to come here."
Yuhe coughed dryly and lowered her head: "Nothing can be hidden from the young master's eyes."
"It's not easy for you to work together to find out the way to force out the sub-gu in a short period of time. I won't blame you." Si Wuxiu said, "But before I ask the pigeon demon, I want to hear from you. view."
Yu He said: "This subordinate thinks that those sub-gus might be given to General Bai, but it is possible that General Bai escaped unharmed and did not eat the meal prepared for him, but instead distributed them to his soldiers."
"What does Murong Du think?"
"Young Master Murong said that Cao Huai has no ability to play Gu. These sub-gus were eaten by mistake. There must be a source for the sub-gus. Maybe the snake demon also planted such Gus." After Yu He finished speaking, she looked at Si again. Wuxiu wanted to judge which one he preferred from the expression of his young master.
It's a pity that the snake demon has also been beheaded by General Bai, otherwise they would still be able to ask about Gu worms.
Yuhe looked at it for a long time, but Si Wuxiu still had that indifferent expression, and he really couldn't see what he was thinking.
In this world, only Young Master Tang could make the young master's facial expression richer. In Tangning's absence, he had such an unpredictable appearance.
"Go to see the pigeon demon first." Si Wuxiu didn't say anything in the end, which made Yuhe feel a little disappointed.
Maybe it was too obvious, so Si Wuxiu turned around and said to her: "Do you like Murong Du? Say you don't like it, and you always discuss poisonous prescriptions with him; say you like it, and think about it." You can beat him in this way, but you need to know that the Murong family is better in terms of poisonous Gu, isn't it hard for you to strive for victory in this area?"
Yu He was enlightened when she heard this, and opened her mouth wide: "Young master, from what you said, the relationship is really complicated!"
The corner of Si Wuxiu's mouth curled into an extremely slight arc: "That's natural, you still have to learn."
Yuhe immediately admired Si Wuxiu again, thinking that the young master deserves to be the one who can make Young Master Tang fall in love with him, and the experience of those who have heard it is definitely right!
Affected by the power of the demon emperor's robe, the pigeon demon has not recovered its human form after a day, which is worse than Gu Le's morality. Fortunately, he has recovered his human speech, and he no longer screams "coo coo coo".
Considering that the monster's body is a pigeon, General Bai didn't lock him in an ordinary prison, but in a refined iron cage to prevent him from using the gap between the cages to escape.
When the pigeon demon saw Si Wuxiu, it jumped back a few steps in fright, and was so nervous that it spread its wings to fly.
However, the birdcage was very strong, so it couldn't fly out. Seeing it with Si Wuxiu's indifferent eyes, he didn't dare to make a fuss anymore. He clamped his wings and stood in the same place cowardly: "Hey... I have already explained what I have to explain. , Heroes, please be merciful!"
Offending the owner of the Yaohuangpao is basically going against all the Yaozu. This is more frightening than being a spy, and I regret it.
So it knows everything without saying anything, and is afraid that His Majesty the Demon Emperor in the future will be dissatisfied with it, not only will it be expelled from the demon status, but also its clansmen and even the descendants will be disliked.
It took more than an hour for this interrogation. When Si Wuxiu hurried back, Tangning had already finished her breakfast, "Where did you go? I couldn't find you after I woke up. I wanted to have dinner with you." ..."
"It's too late, Aning, we have to leave quickly!" Si Wuxiu's face was more serious than before.
Tangning had never seen him so nervous and anxious, so she held him back first, "Just tell me slowly what happened."
"I'm afraid the sweet spring water has been tampered with." Si Wuxiu frowned, still unable to hide her self-blame and anger, "We'll explain the details when we get on the road, pack up our things first, and we'll set off in half an hour. "
"Half an hour? How fast?" Tangning asked in surprise, "But we can reach Wutupo as long as we follow the army for another five or six days."
"That's too late." Si Wuxiu shook his head.
"My second brother..."
"Lei Peng has been sent to inform. The Second Young Master is a person who abides by the contract. When the time comes, he will definitely come to join us." Si Wuxiu said, "Yuhe also went to inform General Bai and the scholar for me."
Just as he finished speaking, Second Brother Tang's voice came from outside: "A-Ning! What's going on here? Why is Si suddenly in a hurry to leave?"
Oh, his second brother didn't wait for half an hour, he had already finished packing and came to look for his younger brother.
"Of course it's something related to Aning, so I'm so anxious." Si Wuxiu said to Tang Ding who opened the tent and came in, "I will explain the rest on the road." @无限好文,全在晋江文学城
"Okay, then I'll ask my disciples to count the horses, prepare dry food, and get ready to go!" Second Brother Tang hurriedly left after hearing this, without any doubt that Si Wuxiu would lie.
As long as it's about Tangning, Si Wuxiu, like the two elder brothers of the Tang family, won't make fun of it.
On this point, Brother Tang thought that he could still trust Classmate Si, so he was even more forthright than Tangning.
Only Tangning didn't understand, "The scholar promised to be our guide, so you don't want it?"
Now is a good time for the scholar to re-enter the White Tiger Army, and it is impossible to leave the camp. If they set off at this time, they will not be able to get the scholar's help.
Although Tangning didn't care much about this, Si Wuxiu was a person who never lost money in business. They did such a big favor to the scholar. According to his temperament, he always wanted to get some benefits from the scholar.
But this time, Si Wuxiu was a little flustered.
Tangning had never seen Si Wuxiu like this before, he couldn't help but hold the other's hand, and looked straight into Si Wuxiu's eyes: "Is the matter very difficult?"
"Actually, it's nothing. With the strength of the two of us, we can always solve it..."
Before Si Wuxiu finished speaking, Tangning opened her mouth and bit him, and stared, "It's nothing? Then why are your hands a little cold, your eyes a little fluttering, and your heart beating a little fast?"
Si Wuxiu was silent for a moment, then suddenly hugged Tangning tightly.
The force was so heavy that it seemed that he wanted to rub the person into his own flesh and blood, so that he could use his own flesh and blood to block all disasters for him.
"Hey……"
"A'Ning, I'm sorry." Si Wuxiu said in a muffled voice.
"Si Wuxiu, do you know that 'I'm sorry' and 'Let's talk' are the opening words for breaking up." Tangning pushed his head against his forehead, "Don't use it if you don't know, understand?"
Si Wuxiu nodded in a daze.
"Very good, then after we leave, you can explain it carefully." Tangning patted his cheek, "Now pack up with me, and clean up your expression."
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
After finishing speaking, Tangning smiled at him, and pulled Si Wuxiu and him to put the things in the tent into the mustard stone.
When everything was settled, everyone bid farewell to the members of the White Tiger Army in a hurry, and set off with the route map drawn by the scholar.
In the vast yellow sand, a group of more than 20 riders rode their horses on the road.When resting halfway, Si Wuxiu finally told a very serious thing he learned from the pigeon demon.
"According to my speculation, Wutupo should also be a place to seal demons." Si Wuxiu said, "However, this seal does not seem to be made by the Six Saints. It has existed for a longer time than that, so only sweet springs are left in the northwest Water legend."
Ganquan water is as famous in the northwest as the Wanyao Pagoda. It is said that drinking a sip of sweet spring water can make people feel full of energy.
However, there is a lack of water in the desert, and the vicinity of Wutupo is a place where it is very easy to get lost. If travelers who are short of water are lucky enough to find a sweet spring, they will naturally pass on the spring water in a miraculous way.So over time, everyone felt that this legend was a bit exaggerated.
"I heard from the pigeon demon that the seal of Wutupo was formed by the eyes of a certain ancient monster. Its eyes are the eyes of the array, which can purify all things, so it can make the spring water clean, and even the herbs that grow by the water They can purify water." Si Wuxiu continued, "But recently Huanglong heard about the seal from somewhere, and sent someone to raise the spirit eye from Wutupo."
Brother Tang said angrily: "Didn't he deliberately destroy the seal of the Demon God?"
"That's right, that's why the Demon God can throw Zi Gu into the spring water. Anyone, monsters, and animals who drink the sweet spring water will be planted with Zi Gu." Si Wuxiu sighed.
"If the formation eyes are destroyed, wouldn't the demon god's power become stronger?" Tangning asked worriedly.
"It's more than that. After the spiritual eyes are taken out, I'm worried that Ganquan will no longer be Ganquan..." This is what Si Wuxiu finds most troublesome. The three herbs that Tangning needs are indispensable, and Ganquan water is one of them. one.
So he wanted to feel Wutupo as soon as possible to see if the spring water could be extracted again.
"Theoretically speaking, the spiritual eye is just a formation eye. Although the lack of formation eyes will speed up the release of the seal, it will take some time to completely destroy such a large formation. Maybe the sweet spring water will still be effective." Si Wuxiu frowned. .
"No wonder you left as soon as you said you would, in such a hurry." Tangning glanced at him, no wonder he would say "I'm sorry" to herself in the tent, obviously after handing over Colonel Hao and the Snake Demon to General Bai He just left, but he still agreed to the scholar's exchange and went to help him catch the spies.
"You didn't know about the Northwest Huanglong coveting the spirit eye." Tangning held Si Wuxiu's hand and said, "What's more, what's the difference between going a few days earlier and a few days later? The water was swallowed by the snake demon and the soldiers when it reached the lower reaches, which means that this is no longer a matter of a day or two."
Based on this calculation, Zigu had been in the water for several months at least. At that time, they might have just passed the assessment of Tianxiang Seminary, and Tangning didn't even know her bloodline.
"You don't blame me for delaying you?" Si Wuxiu stared at him.
"Why are you to blame?" Tangning shook her head, there was no trace of blame on her face, and there was a hint of a smile on her face, "This matter has nothing to do with you, but you are more concerned about your own affairs, I am too happy. Even if you can't get the sweet spring water in the end, it doesn't matter, just think of a way, there is no unparalleled road!"
It really doesn't work, as my grandfather said, after 80 years of practice, he can always put his ears and tail back.
At that time, maybe they were all old men, maybe Tangning's hair was also bald.
"However, it's not too long before the eyes of the formation are destroyed. If you re-strengthen the seal, there may be a way to restore the sweet spring water." Si Wuxiu held Tangning's hand tightly, "I will definitely find a way to restore you!"
"Well, I believe you."
The two looked at each other, their eyes filled with sweetness.
Brother Tang lowered his head and drew a circle on the ground, then cleared his throat and said, "Go to strengthen the seal earlier, and the spring water that Aning needs will have a better chance of recovering. Then what are we waiting for, let's go!"
Tangning let go of Si Wuxiu's hand and quickly stood up, "Oh yes, we need to arrive at Wutupo as soon as possible to see if the formation can still be saved."
Although he didn't mind if he couldn't find it, it would be even better if he could find it!
No hope should be given up.
Si Wuxiu stretched his hand halfway, and almost kissed his sweetheart, but was interrupted by Brother Tang, and his body remained in an awkward position.
"Wuxiu, what are you still doing?" Tangning walked halfway and found that the person beside her was not there. When she turned her head, she saw that the person was still sitting where she was, feeling a little puzzled.
Si Wuxiu stood up as if nothing had happened: "It's nothing, I'll come right away."
As he said that, he exchanged a silent but gunpowder-like look with Tang Er Ge again.
Fortunately, everyone is a martial artist with good physical fitness. They rushed all the way, day and night, and finally arrived at Wutupo in the early morning of the third day.
Wutupo ravines are vertical and horizontal, and the depth is more than ten feet deep. When the wind and sand blow, the terrain will change again. It is not easy to find a spring from this place with treacherous terrain.
But everyone has a road map in hand, even if the terrain is changeable, they can find the correct road according to the compass and the vegetation along the way.
After searching for a long time, everyone finally saw a large piece of cattail grass before sunset.
"There is water here!" A disciple of Tangjiabao walked to the edge of the water excitedly, and was about to touch the water to drink, but Ge Liyan quickly stopped him, "There are Gu worms in this water, how dare you drink it? !"
Thinking about it, the disciple waved his hands in fright, and took off the water bag from his waist, taking two mouthfuls to quench his thirst.
Tangning and Si Wuxiu followed the water to find the source.Tangning looked at the surrounding scenery, and the more she looked, the more she frowned, "This area seems to be sealed. Every plant and tree is arranged in an orderly manner, which is very different from what Master taught me."
"It's not sealed by the same person, there will be more or less differences." Si Wuxiu comforted him, "But since they are all sealed, there should still be something in common."
"Yes." Tangning nodded, slowly recalling the memories passed down to him by Taoist Yushan, trying to find an alternative.
"They started to destroy it from here." Si Wuxiu walked to the spring first. "There is a stone formation by the water, which should be a way to hide the spring. After the destruction, the location of the spring will be exposed."
Tang Ning also walked over to look at the stone formation with him: "The technique of this formation is relatively ancient. According to the master's inheritance, the stone formation was created by the ancients, and his method of sealing the demon god also used stones. Inspiration from Stonehenge."
But it can't be ruled out that Master just likes stones more, who made him even a weapon like a jade mountain.
"People of later generations like to use talismans and formation disks, which are convenient and easy." Tangning straightened the stones one by one, and said to Si Wuxiu, "But if you think too much about shortcuts, it is easy to neglect self-cultivation. Master believes that today's It is difficult for warriors to reach the holy level because of laziness, so he prefers to imitate the way of the ancients."
"The master of the shrine is also quite an interesting person." Si Wuxiu said.
"If you saw him with your own eyes, you might not think so." Tangning glanced at him.
Master is an old man who knows astronomy first and geography second, and Si Wuxiu is also a top student. After the two meet, everyone talks half of what they say, and guesses the rest. How tiring.
Si Wuxiu kissed him on the lips: "You study the stone formation here, and I'll go to the spring to get water."
"Ah."
Si Wuxiu took a bamboo tube and came to the spring.
The spring could not feel any spiritual power at all, so he carefully filled some spring water in a bamboo tube.This special bamboo tube was soaked by Yuhe with medicinal herbs, within a short while, a layer of black sub-gu was deposited on the bottom of the water.
Si Wuxiu frowned, turned back to Tangning and said, "The spring has been polluted, even if those poisonous insects are filtered out, I'm afraid the water will no longer be sweet spring water, first try to seal it—"
Before Si Wuxiu could finish speaking, Tangning stood up in horror, "Wuxiu, get down!"
Si Wuxiu's pupils shrank slightly, and a bone-piercing chill came from behind him, his body took the lead in taking action, he quickly swept aside, and at the same time threw the bamboo tube in his hand!
Looking sideways while dodging, it turned out that what was behind him just now was a cloud of thick black smoke!The thick black smoke condensed into a bloody mouth, chasing and biting Si Wuxiu's back, trying to swallow him in one gulp!
Even though Si Wuxiu's reaction was quick, part of the black smoke still caught up to him. Just when the black smoke was about to touch Si Wuxiu, a golden light burst out from the white tiger armor, shaking the black smoke back.
At the same time, Tangning also rushed in front of the black smoke. The Demon Emperor's Robe carried him into the air, creating a terrifying wind, trying to blow the black smoke away.
The black smoke was broken up into countless Gu worms in an instant, so densely packed that it made one's scalp tingle.Then it condensed again and became more and more solid.
A desolate voice came out from the black smoke: "My enemy actually came to my door, hahahaha..."
"A'Ning, be careful!" Si Wuxiu quickly swung the green shadow sword to strike at the black shadow.
However, the black shadow has already condensed into the image of a tall man. He raised his hand lightly to block it, and grasped Si Wuxiu's sword: "Unfortunately, you want to use the seal to kill me, but I just can't die!"
"Let him go!" Tangning shot ten sleeve arrows at Moon Demon in a row. He couldn't care less about the enemy. After the sleeve arrows, ten thunderbolts followed.
The white tiger armor took the initiative to help Si Wuxiu block the destructive force brought by the thunder explosion. When Si Wuxiu opened his eyes from the blowing wind and sand, Tangning had already swung his long whip to attack the demon god.
Si Wuxiu tried to pull out his sword, but the opponent's hand didn't move at all. He gritted his teeth and gave up the Green Shadow Sword. Using his fingers to form a sword, he drew back three feet away, came to Tangning's side, and shot out sword energy in line with his attack.
The sword energy and the long whip hit the Moon Demon at the same time, but the Moon Demon didn't seem to be affected at all, and there was even a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth: "No, no, you are not the people I know... How many years have passed? 100 years, 200 years, or 1000 years?"
He looked at Si Wuxiu, and the emotion in his eyes turned to hatred: "Yuanshi! You use my flesh and blood to cultivate martial arts, become martial saints, and dominate the world. Aren't you guilty? Why haven't you been backlashed yet?!"
Tangning thought about it, and looked at Si Wuxiu.
Si Wuxiu only had fighting intent in his eyes. Hearing such shocking news, he didn't waver in the slightest. He even increased his internal strength, using the sword made of white tiger armor scabbard as a weapon, and shot out several sharp sword qi .
"A-Ning, the demon god this time is different from the ones I have encountered before." Si Wuxiu calmly analyzed Tangning, "Perhaps the power of the ancient seal has begun to weaken, and the sealing method is different. , the power of the demon god became stronger than ever seen before."
"That's right." Tangning nodded.
"So we must not let him leave here. This demon god does more than release poisonous insects and deceive people." Si Wuxiu calmly looked at the moon demon. Out of hatred, the latter took the green shadow sword It was pinched in half.
Tangning felt heartache seeing the Lv Ying Sword being broken. Even Xiao Hei lay on his shoulder, covering his eyes with pincers, unable to bear to watch.
But when Tangning turned her head, she found that Si Wuxiu's expression was extremely determined, and her eyes were rational and shone with light.
Because the other party was so firm, Tangning also gained confidence in her heart, and immediately recovered her emotions, "Then can you think of a way? Right now, the Moon Demon can't get away from the spring, although we have a way to deal with it
