Chapter 407 Branding
The sun rises and the moon sets, spring goes and winter comes.

The so-called no sun and moon in the mountains, no one knows the year at the end of the cold, time flies like a white horse passing by, and it is a few years in the blink of an eye.

In the past few years, the situation in the world has not changed greatly, but minor chaos has continued.

The land of the Central Plains is still a battle between Qi, Jin, Shu, Chu, and Wu. There are frequent trials and small battles, but there are no large-scale wars.

After Li Xingyun and his team completed the last wave of enhancements in Twelve Caves, they successfully assisted Chi Meng in solving the Dugong and brought Wandu Cave into his hands.However, the Wandu Cave is too far away from the territory of Jin State, separated by Qi State and Shu State, so this move will not help the situation of Jin State much.

Their greatest development was their successful alliance with the Khitan behind them. The two sides joined forces to take over the Yan and Liao countries in the north in one fell swoop.

But the other four countries were not idle either. As Dangxiang, Nanzhao, Fujian, Nanhan and other places were united or annexed one after another, almost all small forces were wiped out, leaving only the five most powerful countries on the map.

There is not much difference in their size on the surface, and naturally neither of them will start the fight lightly to avoid being taken advantage of by others, but the fight will not stop because of this.

Problems that cannot be solved by the army and the court can sometimes be reaped by using the means of the rivers and lakes, so the rivers and lakes have also become jittery.

In this regard, the Tongwen Museum of Qi State and Huanyinfang and Jin State have the upper hand because of their early development and solid foundation.Although Tong Wen Guan was seriously injured because more than half of the Thirteen Taibao withered, but Zhang Zifan was backed by Xuanwu Mountain Tianshi Mansion, and the combined force of the two was not much better than that of Tong Wen Guan at its peak.

Seeing this, the rest of the Three Kingdoms naturally refused to suffer, so the Xuanming Sect, who stayed behind closed doors at the main altar, suddenly became a hot favorite.

Even those small schools and sects that were not popular in the past have now become the objects of competition among the princes and kings.

After all, it takes time to practice martial arts. Even if you use those evil methods practiced for the dead and squeeze your body's potential and life span, it will take at least five years to see the effect.How could this be faster and more convenient than directly incorporating ready-made sect forces?

As a result, under the iron heel of the Five Kingdoms, the entire rivers and lakes were in chaos.

At the beginning, there were some small sects who were complacent about being approached by two great princes at the same time, and were ready to sell them for a price, but what they didn't expect was that the princes and kings didn't have that much patience.

Therefore, just when they were complacent about the happiness of having everything they could, they were suddenly trampled through the mountain gate by clanging iron hooves.

After several successive massacres, most sects have become honest.Because the bloody facts made them realize that the rivers and lakes are still unable to compete with the temples. If they don't agree while they are still willing to pay a high price, they can't bear the consequences of exhausting others' patience.

Of course, there are differences between people after all.

Some sects were blatantly exterminated just because they hesitated for a few days, but the remnant disciples of Xuanming Sect led by Po Meng rejected the invitations of several princes in a row in the main altar, and now there is no serious problem.

All this is because Po Meng is a great master of heaven, and Xuanming Sect still has four powerful masters like the four corpse ancestors roaming around, no one wants to be targeted by five masters of heaven at the same time.

However, there are only a handful of sects in Jianghu who have this kind of treatment. Even Miao Jiangwan Poison Cave has received an ultimatum after rejecting the invitation of Meng Zhixiang, king of Shu several times in a row.

In the battle with the Poison Lord Chi Li, Wandu Nest suffered heavy losses, and almost all the Gu masters of the older generation died. Now after searching the entire Wandu Nest, there is no one who is stronger than Chi Meng.

But Chi Meng only possessed the combat power equivalent to the mid-heaven position.

With such strength, he is not qualified to refuse the King of Shu's invitation.

Therefore, Shiwan Dashan, which had just calmed down for a few years, seemed to be caught in a crisis of black clouds overwhelming the city in a blink of an eye.

And similar things didn't just happen in Miaojiang. The Tianshan Sword Sect far away on the top of the snow mountain has also encountered trouble recently.

The Tianshan Sword Sect is not considered strong, but its accomplishments in swordsmithing are astonishing.According to legend, the Longquan sword was made by the master swordsmith in their school.

Such a sect will naturally be coveted by others, even if it is not for the people in the Jianghu, it is good to bring it back to improve the quality of the army's equipment.

Therefore, several major princes sent their masters to invite them.

This made the head of the Tianshan Sword Sect a little at a loss. He knew that no matter who he agreed to, he would offend several other families by the way, and the future of the sect would be in jeopardy.But you can't split the Tianshan faction into four or five parts and distribute them equally, right?

Wouldn't it be possible to kill each other in the future?

Perhaps it was because several forces restrained each other, there was still enough time for the head of Tianshan to think, and most of the people in the rivers and lakes who had nothing to do couldn't sit still, so they took the opportunity to hang out on the snowy mountain that was rarely visited by people on weekdays.

You Muzhi is a priest of the Witch God Sect of Chu State, and also the person in charge who was sent by Chu King Ma Yin to preside over this time.

The Witch God Sect is a power in the rivers and lakes established by the Chu State. With the Wuzhu method that was already very popular in Chu as the core, it has attracted a large number of priests and witches. .

While waiting for the head of the Tianshan Sword Sect to reply, he visited the snow mountain, and then suddenly stopped in the north of Tian'er Peak.

"That is……"

Nomad narrowed his eyes, stretched out his skinny claw-like palms and stretched out his wide sleeves, and waved his witch staff in front of him. At the same time, his lips squirmed, and he spit out a strange syllable. There seems to be a divine light shining through.

"Pure white like jade, transparent like crystal, shaped like an earthworm, everything it passes by is like burning with charcoal fire... Hiss~ this, this is ice silkworm!"

With the blessing of witchcraft, Nomad seems to have acquired the ability of clairvoyance, and he even saw the ice silkworm lying on the glacier and feasting on it from a distance.

"God help me too! Ice silkworms are extremely cold and poisonous, rare in the world. If you can capture them and use them to practice witchcraft..."

Thinking of this, You Muzhi's heart suddenly became hot.

As for whether this ice silkworm will have an owner, will the owner be the landlord Tianshan Sword Sect here?
He didn't care about these things, even if this thing really belonged to the Tianshan Sword Sect, would they still dare not hand it over?
Besides, I am afraid that within a few days, the Tianshan Sword Sect will be gone, so there is no need to care about other things!

So, he made a decisive decision and flew to the area where the ice silkworm was found.

The nomad is trying to make a time difference, lest others will compete with him.Even if someone discovers his actions, he rushes over non-stop, and by the time the person who wants to snatch them arrives, he has already succeeded in catching them. By then, his strength will increase greatly with the ice silkworms in his hands. Will he care about those rotten fish and rotten shrimps?
But unfortunately, the idea is beautiful, but the reality is cruel. He not only overestimated his own strength, but also underestimated the reaction speed of others.

Those who are still in the Tianshan Sword Sect are rivals, or more seriously, enemies, and they are endless enemies in the process of fighting for the world.

Therefore, it is common for them to intrigue and intrigue with each other.And intelligence is the first element of struggle. How can no one keep an eye on such a big target?
As soon as he took action, people from Shu, Wu and other countries followed, followed by Qi and Jin. It was obviously a one-man expedition, but in an instant it became a team of five people, still in a 122 formation.

Maybe it was because he was somewhat overwhelmed by the joy of discovering the ice silkworm, Nomad didn't notice his "teammates" behind him.

Excitedly, he went straight to the glacier at the foot of the mountain, and just as he found the exact location of the ice silkworm, and was about to start capturing it, he was interrupted by a voice from behind.

"I wonder what made Brother You run so fast, hehe, every summer in Sichuan is extremely hot, can this ice silkworm be parted from me, and let me dedicate it to the king to escape the summer heat?" what?"

Now that the target has been confirmed, in order to avoid being caught by the nomad, the people who followed along the way no longer hide.

"Jiange, Meng Xu!"

You Muzhi was startled when he heard the sound, and looked back, seeing the figure in white with a sword, he gritted his teeth and called out a name.

Jiange is the name of the Jianghu organization under the command of Meng Zhixiang, king of Shu, because there have always been legends of sword immortals in Shu, and there are many martial arts people who use swords as weapons, so this name is quite appropriate.

It is also because of this that they attach the most importance to the affairs of the Tianshan Sword Sect, and Meng Xu's strength is faintly higher than that of Nomad.

"Brother You actually only sees Brother Meng alone, it's really sad..."

At this time, a middle-aged man came out from behind Meng Xu. He was dressed in a blue robe and his skin was rough. He looked as if he had been blown by the sea wind all year round.

"Diaoao Island, Ye Xi!"

Seeing him, You Muzhi's expression became even uglier, he was from the state of Wu.

If Meng Xu was the only one who followed, he could still try to play around. When Ye Xi appeared, he wisely stopped all his actions. Not only did he not continue to try to catch the ice silkworms, but he wanted to To disturb it in advance, let it leave quickly.

What you can't get yourself, of course you can't leave it to others!
It's a pity that his little move was quickly discovered.

"Brother You, isn't it a little unreasonable for you to do this?"

Another two figures walked out of the ice and snow, this time Nomad was a little numb: "Huanyinfang, Tongwenguan!"

However, he is also a high-ranking member of the Witch God Sect, so he quickly adjusted his mentality and broke away from the anger of "being cut off". He looked at the four people who vaguely surrounded him, and sneered: "This time I admit it, this time Ice silkworms should be given to you!"

After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave, but he didn't expect to be blocked.

He looked at the smiling Meng Xu in front of him, his eyes flickered coldly: "Meng Xu, do you really want to fight me here?"

The countries of Chu and Shu to which they belong share borders. Over the years, there have been no major conflicts, and minor frictions have continued. Especially the confrontations between the forces in the rivers and lakes are quite frequent, and a lot of hatred has accumulated between them.

"What did Brother You say? Since you have chosen to give up, why don't you give me a helping hand?"

Meng Xu stroked the hilt of the sword at his waist, "When I present the ice silkworms to the king, I can share half of the reward with you, how about it?"

"Hey, what do I want to do with the King of Shu's reward?"

Nomad saw through Meng Xu's sinister intentions at a glance. As one of the chief priests of the Chu State Witch God Sect, if he accepted the reward from the King of Shu, could he continue to stay in Chu State?
As for whether this reward was changed hands, King Chu was not in the mood to find out.

Sure enough, these good-looking people have really bad hearts!

But what he didn't expect was that on the matter of catching ice silkworms, the other four people actually reached a short-term agreement, only to hear Ye Xi say: "Brother You, when it comes to Royal Insects, apart from those who hide in Shiwan Dashan Except for the Gu masters who don't want to come out, you are the ones who are good at it. This is rare in the ice silkworm world. Since everyone has encountered it today, they all want to open their eyes. Why do you want to dampen everyone's interest? "

"you!"

Nomad's Fury glared at each other, but found that the four people's auras were faintly connected, and they blocked themselves, even if they wanted to escape, they had no chance.

"Okay, very good!"

He spat angrily, "You want to see ice silkworms, don't you? I'd like to see how the four of you, one silkworm, will be divided!"

"Brother You doesn't need to worry about that. If it really doesn't work, after everyone has seen it, it will be ruined."

Ye Xi said lightly, "Okay, let's do it quickly."

"Humph!"

Nomad was very aggrieved, but he had no choice but to raise his witch staff and start to draw patterns on the glacier.

It's a pity that these people don't know that their loud conspiracy has long been heard by the ice silkworm.

How can there be so many wild ice silkworms in this world?

What Nomad discovered was actually the Ice Silkworm Gu left by Chi Yao to stock up here.

Chi Yao was also a little careless. He didn't expect that a small Gu worm would be found in this kind of inaccessible glacier, but the ice silkworm Gu is not completely incapable of self-protection.

Its absolute poison and coldness are not just for fun, they are the conclusions of countless people who have tried their lives.

Especially on the thick glaciers in the midwinter season, it can be said that the time and place are at the perfect time, and the other five people are not in the same mind at all, so this person and one item are also occupied by the ice silkworm Gu.

Heaven, earth and man have all three talents, and it is not impossible to fight with them.

Not to mention that because of Chi Yao's cultivation, the Ice Silkworm Gu has a high spiritual intelligence, and can even understand the conversations of You Muzhi and others.

So what it is thinking now is how to keep all these guys who dare to make their own ideas.

……

……

Twelve caves.

In the past few years, Chi Yao has basically learned all the voodoo techniques of Twelve Caves, and even experimented with many new moves combined with his own voodoo.

With the in-depth study of Chi You's body, sometimes he seems to be able to vaguely feel the faintly familiar breath from the upper reaches of the long river of time and space.

"The call from the blood... Is it Chi You's brand?"

After many confirmations, Chi Yao came to such a conclusion, but the brand was still quite far away from where he was, about a thousand years away.

After counting the number of branches of the Muhai reincarnation Gu, he sighed, "We have to wait... Although Twelve Caves are good, it's boring to stay here all the time. Counting the time, the Ice Silkworm Gu should be healed soon." , just go out for a walk."
