Spirit Realm Walker

The oil lamp was dim, staining the house like an old yellowed photo, blurry and not clear enough.

After eating and injecting a tube of diluted life source liquid, Zhang Yuanqing recovered a little. Although he was a little sick and weak, his coughing finally stopped.

He lay on the shabby bed with a yellowed bed curtain and watched the queen drag out the dusty storage box. After cleaning the dust, she spread the two quilts given by "aunt" on the box to make a simple bed. .

"I want to sleep with Yuanshi Tianzun." Jiang Jingwei sat on the edge of the bed, kicked off his embroidered shoes, took off Hunjun's casual clothes, rolled over Zhang Yuanqing, and shrank to the inside of the bed.

"Jingwei, you sleep with me tonight." The queen disagreed and said, "How can you, a girl, sleep with Yuanshi Tianzun."

"The bed is comfortable. I want to sleep on the bed. What's wrong with sleeping with Yuanshi Tianzun! When I get tired from fighting at home, I often sleep on my brother's bed." Jiang Jingwei retorted angrily.

Zhang Yuanqing waved his hands feebly: "Let her sleep, she is still a child. Queen, give her the quilt."

The difference between men and women is an adult concept. Jiang Jingwei has not yet understood this aspect. His thoughts are as clear as a child's. He probably regards him as a brother.

"Then I also want to sleep together." The queen said with a smile.

"You can't." Zhang Yuanqing refused: "The breasts are too big. If you sleep on the bed, I won't be able to think clearly."

The Queen threw over a thin quilt made of coarse cloth.

Zhang Yuanqing threw it to Jingwei again. Jiang Jingwei rolled up the quilt and muttered: "It smells musty."

She raised her head, glanced at Yuanshi Tianzun, then at the Queen, and asked, "What should we do next?"

I still have some brains and know that I am in a bad situation now! Zhang Yuanqing sighed and said:

"Sooner or later, we are going to come out to win over the people, so we should be ahead of schedule. It is a pity that Concubine Wan died and lost a level 6 support."

Jiang Jingwei said "Ah": "The big guy is dead? Then we have to avenge her."

The queen sitting on the wooden box said angrily:

"She is an NPC, what revenge do you need from you!

"She will refresh after we leave the dungeon."

That Wanmei is not a special boss in the dungeon, nor is it a prop with "unique attributes". This kind of character will be refreshed infinitely. When the next faint king comes in, she will also be "reborn".

"The next Concubine Wan has nothing to do with us, but I have to avenge this Concubine Wan." Zhang Yuanqing leaned against the bedside and said in a weak tone:

"Our next actions are to treat the disease, increase our reputation and find helpers."

Jiang Jingwei thought for a while and said: "It's easy to cure the disease. Go to that fairy medicine store. The fairy medicine store can cure your disease."

The queen shook her head: "No, ordinary doctors from the Immortal Medicine Shop cannot cure Yuanshi's disease. If the Imperial Master or his disciples take action, they will definitely find out the cause of his illness. Once he is targeted by the experts from the Immortal Medicine Shop, we It’s like throwing yourself into a trap.”

"What should we do?" Jiang Jingwei asked the mantra of the fire masters.

"Don't worry about the illness. You won't die anyway. At most, you will become a cripple and a fool." Zhang Yuanqing never panics when encountering major events. He said: "We need to build up our reputation now, help me with side tasks, and then find helpers."

"I think the helpers you are talking about are not our teammates." The Queen keenly heard what he meant.

Zhang Yuanqing smiled and said: "Although I am a foolish king, no matter how you say it, I am still a dignified person. The Zheng family once again covers the sky with one hand, and there are also political enemies in the court. Zheng Wenhan can rebel tonight because Zhao Shun trusts the Zheng family so much that he hands over the Imperial City Secretary Gave it to the Zheng family."

The Imperial City Division is the emperor's security team, responsible for the safety of the palace and the emperor. It is precisely because he controls the Imperial City Division that Zheng Wenhan is so unscrupulous.

Of course, when Zheng Wenhan rebelled, he blocked the palace gates on the pretext of arresting assassins. On the one hand, it was to prevent him from escaping, and on the other hand, it showed that not all the Imperial City Secretaries were from the Zheng family.

After all, the Imperial City Division has thousands of elites, and they cannot all be members of the Zheng family.

"But in the court, first of all, the clan must be loyal to the emperor, secondly, the political enemies of the Zheng family are our allies, and finally, some treacherous ministers must still be against me." Zhang Yuanqing said, "And the biggest enemy of the Zheng family is another relative. "

Jingwei was a little confused.

But the queen's eyes lit up: "Yang family!"

She immediately frowned:

"Zheng Wenhan can also imagine this. He will definitely arrange manpower in various ways and channels for us to contact the Yang family. Once we show up, we will definitely die.

"Besides, the emperor who leaves the palace is like a phoenix in distress, worse than a chicken. The Zheng family can completely announce that you died at the hands of assassins and died in the palace, in order to hold a state funeral and seal your death. Then in With the support of the national preceptor, he ascended the throne and proclaimed himself emperor."

He was very passive in the palace, and once he left the palace, he lost all initiative.

Although he successfully escaped the Zheng family's rebel assassination, the dungeon mission entered hell mode.

Because of this, even the slow Jiang Jingwei asked the question "What to do next?"

Zhang Yuanqing curled up his lips: "Don't worry, the Zheng family will not ascend the throne. At most, they will support a puppet, disguise themselves as me, and then issue a hush-hush order to the Imperial Army who are operating tonight, and pretend that nothing happened."

Jiang Jingwei and the Queen asked at the same time: "Why?"

royal palace.

In the long-extinguished dormitory, a dozen armor-breaking forbidden soldiers were rummaging through the scorched ruins emitting green smoke.

Zheng Wenhan stood in front of the palace, with a long sword on his waist, his face as gloomy as water, and he was silent.

After a quarter of an hour, the soldiers stopped, exchanged glances with each other, and shook their heads slightly.

A leader gritted his teeth, stepped out of the charred threshold, came to Zheng Wenhan, and whispered:

"Prime Minister Zheng, we still haven't found the imperial seal."

Zheng Wenhan twitched the corner of his mouth, took a deep breath to calm down, and asked in a deep voice: "Where is the Double Dragon Jade Pendant!"

The leader of the Imperial Guard shook his head.

Zheng Wenhan was furious, kicked the leader of the Forbidden Army, and said sternly: "Look, I will dig three feet into the ground to find the truth."

The leader of the Forbidden Army hurriedly got up and shouted to his subordinates: "Keep looking! If you can't find the Imperial Seal and the Double Dragon Jade Pendant, I will chop off your heads."

All the Imperial Guards lowered their heads and started rummaging quickly, even though they had been digging in the ashes for an hour.

A whistling sound came from high in the sky. The middle-aged swordsman, whose skin was still somewhat wrinkled, landed with his sword, bowed and clasped his fists: "Prime Minister Zheng, I have penetrated every inch of the harem and failed to find the faint king. He ran away."

Zheng Wenhan's chest and abdomen rose and fell violently: "What's the feedback from the palace gate?"

The middle-aged swordsman shook his head slightly: "The imperial guards on duty at the palace gate responded. No one broke through. There are imperial guards on duty one hundred feet in front of and one hundred feet behind the palace gate. With Hunjun's cultivation, he can become invisible for up to two hundred feet. If he wants to cross five feet, The palace wall is as high as 150 feet."

Therefore, it was impossible to escape from the palace without alerting the imperial army.

Zheng Wenhan asked: "Where are the others?"

"In addition to the woman who was burned to ashes on the spot, there were six other people. One of them flew into the sky and could not be traced by arrows. One of them had a strange body style and escaped from the palace by flying over eaves and walls. One of them escaped into the harem and disappeared mysteriously. One of them forced his way out. In the palace, the imperial guards seemed to be obsessed and confused. The two of them escaped halfway, turned back to the summer palace, sneaked into the lake, and disappeared." The middle-aged swordsman responded one by one.

Zheng Wenhan immediately looked at the artificial lake, "Hunjun also escaped from the lake. You arrange a few people who are good at water to follow his escape route."

The middle-aged general nodded and immediately looked at the backs of the soldiers who were rummaging around: "The jade seal hasn't been found yet?"

Zheng Wenhan looked gloomy:

"That kid Zhao Shun not only took away the imperial seal, but he didn't even leave a piece of the precious seal. That's unreasonable! You continue to watch in the palace, I'm going to the Tianji Tower."

Tianji Tower is where the Imperial Master lives.

"Yes!" said the middle-aged general.

In the dimly lit room, Zhang Yuanqing opened the inventory, took out a piece of bright yellow square jade, held it heavily in his hand, and showed it to Jiang Jingwei and the Queen.

"This is..." The queen was stunned at first, then surprised: "The emperor's jade seal?"

Zhang Yuanqing smiled and said: "It's more than that."

Then, he took out six more precious seals from the inventory, including jade, gold, and iron.

Zhang Yuanqing gave some tips to his two teammates:

"These are all the emperor's seals, and they have different uses. Some are used for issuing edicts, some are used for canonizing ministers, and some are used for sending secret letters, but they are not important. I stole them to delay time, so that the Zheng family would not use my seals. Do it.

“The most important thing are these two items.”

Zhang Yuanqing took out another bright yellow Double Dragon jade pendant, put it together with the square jade, and introduced:

"This jade seal belongs to the third emperor of the Southern Dynasty. It is carved from a piece of flawless jade that was paid tribute by the subordinate country 'Caiyun Kingdom'. It is unique in the world.

"The seal can be carved at will, but there is no second piece for the imperial seal. Because of its unique attributes, it was regarded as a symbol of identity and legitimacy by the kings of the Southern Dynasties. If Zheng Wenhan wants to ascend the throne and usurp the throne, he must obtain the imperial seal. Otherwise, both the government and the public will They won’t recognize him.”

Even if Zheng Wenhan does not ascend the throne, if he wants to support the puppet emperor, he still needs to pass on the imperial seal.

In fact, Zhao Shun was the most perfect puppet emperor, but Zhao Shun favored the queen, and the queen was the legitimate daughter of the Yang family. The Yang family, which was already a wealthy family, became the most powerful enemy of the Zheng family.

In Zhang Yuanqing's few memories, Empress Dowager Zheng chose the daughter of the Yang family for him. Now that he thinks about it, Empress Dowager Zheng probably wanted to use the Yang family to check the Zheng family.

He picked up the bright yellow Double Dragon Jade again and said, "This jade is made from scraps of flawless jade. It was hung around the waist by emperors of all dynasties. It is also a symbol of identity. These two things can prove my identity."

The copy reminded him that he could not give up his identity as emperor, but he had to leave the palace. After thinking about it, Zhang Yuanqing put these two items and the seal into his inventory.

"The gang leader is still stable." The queen said happily without saying a word.

Jiang Jingwei also breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and fell asleep immediately.

Zhang Yuanqing tugged the corner of the quilt for Jingwei, looked at the queen a few meters away, and said:

"Before Concubine Wan died, she told me that Zheng Wenhan was the one who killed Shen Ruijun. I can check this line when I have time."

The queen immediately looked at Jingwei: "This should be Jingwei's side mission."

"Her mission is our mission. If we expect her to complete it independently, it is better to rely on Master Huo's brains." Zhang Yuanqing said: "It's getting late. Let's rest first and think about things tomorrow."

The east was gradually turning white, and Fu Qingyang stood at the top of the city, his armor stained red with blood, and his handsome face covered with blood and dust.

He looked at the extinguished flames in the distance, his eyes were calm and deep, and the sound of fighting and iron horses a few hours ago was still echoing in his ears.

After nightfall, the defenders of the Southern Dynasty launched a night attack. First, Zhao Chenghuang controlled the spiritual servants and killed the soldiers of the Northern Dynasty scattered outside the city. Then Demon Eye led 5,000 soldiers and horses to attack, pretending to be a 30,000-strong army to surround the enemy. back.

When the lookout soldiers of the Northern Dynasty saw the blazing torches, they were fooled. They gathered a limited number of troops late at night. In a hurry, Tuoba Rentu gathered two thousand cavalry and left the camp.

Subsequently, Fu Qingyang led the Southern Dynasty defenders to attack, broke into the Northern Dynasty military camp and massacred them, set fire to the forage and siege equipment, and set a fire company for the Northern Dynasty army.

After killing tens of thousands of enemies, Fu Qingyang was not greedy for merit and decisively withdrew his troops.

Tuoba Rentu rushed back to the rescue, but he was in vain. He was furious and attacked the city alone. He fought against the three masters Fu Qingyang, Demon Eye King and Xiahou Aotian, but did not take any advantage.

The combination of the devil's bewitching eyes and Fu Qingyang's newly realized sword intent made the ninth-level ancient war god feel threatened.

He killed more than a thousand defenders in anger, wreaked havoc on the city, and left angrily.

In this night attack, the Southern Dynasty lost nearly 6,000 soldiers, and the Northern Dynasty lost about 30,000 soldiers, achieving a complete victory.

After this battle, Fu Qingyang's reputation in the hearts of the Southern Dynasty defenders has greatly increased. The soldiers and generals who were dissatisfied before now want to treat him as a licking dog and regard him as a hero.

But Fu Qingyang was not happy at all. This battle ignited the anger of the Northern Dynasty. The next few days were bound to be extremely brutal siege battles.

At that time, the laborers in the army will also go to the battlefield, and the people in the city will have to serve as laborers.

Fu Qingyang's idea was to reduce the Northern Dynasty's 400,000 troops to 200,000, and then retreat to the capital. After inquiring during the day, he had a preliminary understanding of the situation in the capital.

The political parties in the Southern Dynasties were divided into two factions, one was the Zheng family and the other was the Yang family.

Two major foreign relatives control the government. Among them, the Zheng family is an old family member. They have been operating in the court for decades and have great strength. Although the Yang family is a newly promoted relative, it is an aristocratic family with lush branches and leaves, and can barely compete with the Zheng family faction.

The Yang family is at a disadvantage, so they pay great attention to reputation. Their reputation among the people and the court is better than that of the Zheng family.

Fu Qingyang also found out that Yang Ce's ability to take command this time was all due to the pillow wind of the harem's sister, who was a mother in the world. The Zheng family was extremely sensitive to this, fearing that Yang Ce would make outstanding military exploits on the front line.

If the dungeon is divided into two maps, they are the capital and the battlefield. The capital side is handled by Yuan Shi, but before Yuan Shi completely controls the court, the capital may be a dragon's pond and a tiger's den for the frontline defenders.

If you retreat to the capital, you will definitely die.

That's why Fu Qingyang didn't dare to retreat to the capital.

Linxia City will be guarded for at most half a month and at least seven days. It is hoped that Yuan Shi can control the situation in the capital, otherwise the situation will be critical. In the cold night wind, Fu Qingyang let out a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, he heard a "buzzing" sound of flapping wings.

Looking up, he saw a blurry black shadow coming quickly in the dark night sky, and the vibrating sound of its thin wings was like the noise of a helicopter propeller.

Fu Qingyang's pupils lit up with white light, and when he took a closer look, his brows suddenly raised.

Madoka?
