Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 424 Who Is This Mohist Master?

Xu Zhiqiong has been thinking about a question for the past two days, why the meritorious service has not been refined.

He doesn't care about these meritorious deeds, but he cares about the refining process.

The refining process would make him extremely weak, and if it happened at an inappropriate time, it might kill him.

Now what he was worried about happened, the refinement really happened at the inappropriate time, the most inappropriate time.

Xu Zhiqiong even had the idea that if behind Judge Dao, there was a big man who controlled the timing of meritorious refining, then this big man must be playing tricks on him on purpose.

This cannot be described as teasing.

This is simply playing me to death!

Xu Zhiqiong wanted to escape immediately, but it was too late.

From the moment he shot, the unreasonable inference of "I won't hit you, and your agency won't hit me" has been broken.

All kinds of mechanisms were activated instantly, but Xu Zhiqiong's speed was much slower.

Dodging a row of short knives above his head and a row of iron hooks under his feet, Xu Zhiqiong staggered, but before he could stand still, three crossbow arrows pierced his stomach.

Xu Zhiqiong used a puppet?
No!

Xu Zhiqiong used illusion?
nor!
He took three arrows solidly, covered his wound, took a few steps back, and fell in the corner.

The refinement of meritorious deeds is still going on, and meritorious deeds are constantly peeling off in the body.

The sharp arrowhead pierced through the body, from the stomach to the back, the six wounds were bleeding together.

For Xu Zhiqiong who was extremely weak, these three feathered arrows were almost fatal to him.

Xu Zhiqiong watched the other party stand up.

Instead of approaching, he raised a hand and pointed all the organs at Xu Zhiqiong.

He wanted to kill Xu Zhiqiong with a mechanism, so as to prevent Xu Zhiqiong's counterattack.

Does Xu Zhiqiong really have no chance to fight back?
Yes, it's on the opponent's chest.

The armor there was cut by the star iron halberd, and the bloodstains in the armor can still be seen.

Xu Zhiqiong mobilized the power of imagery, controlled the mandarin duck blade, and stabbed it.

Seeing this, the opponent quickly covered his chest with a shield.

The mandarin duck blade bypassed the shield, passed through the hole in the armor, and left a scar on the opponent's chest.

This scar is not fatal, just a bloody mouth.

Xu Zhiqiong shouted: "No pardon!"

The opponent's wound burst open, and blood gushed out.

Xu Zhiqiong shouted again: "No pardon!"

The other party sat down on the ground with a wound running through his chest.

Xu Zhiqiong shouted again: "No pardon!"

Blood gushed out again, and the other party sat on the ground without making a sound.

died?

Xu Zhiqiong let out a long breath, lay down on the ground, and waited for the merits to be refined.

There are so many of them, merits are still peeling off, and the process of refining has not yet started.

After the refinement is over, recover a little bit, and then find a way to leave here.

Xu Zhiqiong touched the three crossbow arrows on his stomach, and the arrow shafts were wet and sticky.

He bleeds too much, this guy's arrow shaft is full of barbs, the Mo family's methods are meticulous and vicious.

This barb?

I seem to have seen...

Xu Zhiqiong's eyelids were a little heavy.

It shouldn't be, it's just three arrows. I'm a fifth-grade cultivator, so I can't hold it anymore?
I almost forgot that after refinement of meritorious deeds, the body is extremely weak, and it is really possible that it cannot hold on.

Xu Zhiqiong concentrated his mind, afraid that he would fall asleep.

After persisting for about two cups of tea, the meritorious deeds were finally peeled off.

How much can there be?

It looks like there are about seven hundred.

How much is seven hundred?
It's still early, it's still early for promotion.

From rank nine to rank five, Xu Zhiqiong ate a total of eleven thousand one hundred and one golden beans.

How much is refined now?
It's only a thousand, just a fraction.

Think about it, do the math, how many things do you have to do to refine all these meritorious deeds?Can it be promoted to the fourth rank?

Xu Zhiqiong's consciousness was a little fuzzy, he forced himself to do some arithmetic problems, trying to keep himself awake.

Beside the screen, a figure slowly stood up.

That Mohist master is not dead yet!
Xu Zhiqiong gasped, struggling with all his strength, trying to stand up.

But the meritorious deeds are still refining, Xu Zhiqiong can't use any strength, he can only watch the opponent, control all the organs, and aim at himself.

Find a way, no matter what, you have to find a way!I can't just die like this!
Xu Zhiqiong manipulated the mandarin duck blade to attack the opponent's chest again, but it was too late.

Crossbow arrows and flying knives came at him, Xu Zhiqiong had no way to parry, let alone dodge.

A flying knife was hit under his ribs, and a crossbow arrow pierced through his left shoulder. The judge's eyesight was excellent, which meant that Xu Zhiqiong knew that the flying knife and crossbow arrows were coming, but he was powerless to dodge, and could only watch them go in. in the meat.

Seeing that another crossbow arrow was about to hit his forehead, Xu Zhiqiong stared closely at Yujian and that Mohist master.

Even if I die, I will take another look at you, even if I arrive at the Underworld, I have to run back to find you for revenge!
A gust of wind hit, and the feathered arrow that shot towards the forehead suddenly turned around and shot on the couch beside him.

Han Chen protected Xu Zhiqiong with a tornado, left Xu Zhiqiong in the center of the tornado, and blew away all the surrounding arrows, throwing knives, and iron hooks.

Seeing this, the masters of the Mo family turned back and asked the agency to attack Han Chen.

Han Chen took the lead and summoned two thunderbolts, one hit the iron armor, and the other hit the back of the heart.

The Mohist master twitched for a while and lay motionless on the ground.

Han Chen manipulated a silver needle and drilled it into a round hole on the wall.

The round hole the size of a copper coin has been firing crossbow bolts. After the silver needle went away, it got stuck on the mechanism's rotating shaft, and the crossbow bolts couldn't come out.

Han Chen followed the same pattern, thousands of silver needles flew in the air, and after about a meal, almost all organs were controlled.

Han Chen slowly walked up to the Mohist master and kicked the opponent's armor.

With a flick of the armor, the iron helmet fell off.

The inside of the armor is empty, and this Mohist master somehow escaped.

Han Chen had no intention of chasing him, so he quickly helped Xu Zhiqiong up, stopped the bleeding with a silver needle, and pulled out the crossbow arrow and throwing knife.

The feats are almost refined, and the physique of the fifth rank is slowly recovering.

Xu Zhiqiong looked at the blood-stained crossbow arrows, throwing knives and spears, and felt more and more familiar with this craft.

"Look at the barbs on the throwing knife and the crossbow, are they similar to those in my lantern?"

Han Chen glanced at it: "I don't remember what the weapon in your lantern looks like. I'll take you to find a place to heal your injuries first. Luohuai County can't go back. Let's see if there are any inns around here."

Xu Zhiqiong was surprised: "Why can't Luohuai County go back?"

"Fuzhou Tongzhi Ji Gufeng led an army of [-] to fight here. How can you get on the battlefield in this situation?"

Xu Zhiqiong frowned and said, "Even if I can't go to the battlefield, I have to go to the county government to let them know that I'm still alive!"

He leaned over and cut off the head of the prefect Gao Shengchang, wrapped it in a cloth, and wanted to go out of the hall, but he couldn't get to the door anyway.

Han Chen supported Xu Zhiqiong and said: "This door does not lead to the courtyard. I can't tell where it leads. This hall is not the hall you came in. You have been tricked, so follow me first." let's go."

Han Chen took Xu Zhiqiong back the same way, arrived at the real hall, and came to the courtyard from the hall.

Seeing the scorching smoke rising from the courtyard, Xu Zhiqiong asked, "Brother Han is also fighting here?"

Han Chen nodded and said: "I fought with the butler named Gao Fu. He is also a Mohist master. He should have a third grade and can summon all kinds of organs at will. It's just that the skills are used frequently, but the organs are very simple. It's water, fire, swords and the like.

In the beginning, he deceived me with illusion, and I also deceived him once with illusion, wounded his neck with a silver needle, and poisoned him, probably because he was poisoned, the more he was beaten, the worse he was. After a while, he retreated, and I was able to rescue you. "

Three grades of Mohism?

Could it be that Zhong Shen is not the only third rank of Mohism in this world?
Xu Zhiqiong felt more and more strange, and handed the flying knives and crossbow arrows he took off to Han Chen: "Brother Han, please hand these things to the emperor for me, let's go to Luohuai County now, I see Ji Gufeng's bird Where did you get the three thousand troops?"

Han Chen took Xu Zhiqiong back to Luohuai County, the moment he saw Xu Zhiqiong, Lantern Lang relaxed his heart, they dared to fight this battle.

Not only Lantern Lang dared to fight, but Onmyoji dared to fight, but Tao Huayuan burst into tears seeing Xu Zhiqiong's injury so badly.

But now is not the time to cry, Ji Gufeng's army is coming soon.

Yang Wu came in front of Xu Zhiqiong and asked, "Where will this battle go? Is it going to be beaten a few times, or is it going to hurt?"

This is learned from Liang Zhenjie.

Xu Zhiqiong sighed: "I don't know where this group of enemy troops came from. You know that I am soft-hearted. I don't want to see anyone get hurt. You should kill them all."

Yang Wu got the order to take a group of paper figurines to fight, Han Chen and Tao Huayuan followed, Tong Qingqiu stayed in the county government to help Xu Zhiqiong recover from his injuries.

This battle was fought simply, Ji Gufeng learned the lessons of the previous battle, and led the soldiers directly to the county without setting up camp.

Yang Wu led the army to intercept and kill them on the way. Unexpectedly, the [-] army this time is very different from the [-] army last time.

The last time the two thousand troops fought was inexperienced, their tactics were rigid, and they lacked adaptability.

This time, the [-] troops had no combat experience, no tactics, no response, and no decent weapons.

The two sides fought at night, Yang Wu resisted head-on, Lantern Lang shuttled through the chaotic army, specializing in assassinating generals, Tao Huayuan led the Onmyoji to continuously cast magic circles, killing and wounding the enemy army in large numbers, Han Chen was still alone behind the enemy to block the retreat.

The battle lasted less than half an hour, and out of the [-] troops, there were only more than [-] left.

Ji Gufeng led a thousand remnant soldiers to Liuxu Village in the south of the county seat. Yang Wu was about to pursue him, but was stopped by Tao Huayuan: "We have to discuss this matter with Xu Zhiqiong."

"No need to discuss, Zhiqiong said, I don't want to see anyone get hurt, let me kill them all."

"It's easy to kill such a thief, but if Ji Gufeng is in a hurry and drags Liuxu Village to be buried with him, I'm afraid that thief boy will not agree."

Yang Wu thought it was reasonable, and after discussing with Liang Zhenjie, he decided to postpone the troops for a day.

When Xu Zhiqiong heard the news, he rushed over from the county government that day.

"Tao'er, what is the origin of these three thousand soldiers?"

Tao Huayuan shook her head and said: "It's not a serious soldier at all. I have captured a few prisoners before and asked them. These are criminals, bandits and ruffians temporarily recruited by Ji Gufeng. These people are not good at fighting, but they are ruthless to the people. I am afraid They hurt these villagers."

"Where are those prisoners?"

"Kill it!" Yang Wu puffed up his chest and said, "Those prisoners are all injured, I'm afraid you'll feel bad after seeing them, so you might as well kill them all!"

Xu Zhiqiong took out the head of Gao Shengchang, the prefect of Fuzhou, and said to Yang Wu, "You ask some paper figurines to take this head and stand at the entrance of the village."

Yang Wu did as he did, and the paper figurine held Gao Shengchang's head and stood from early morning to noon.

Several strong men came over, also holding a human head in their hands.

The head of Fuzhou Tongzhi Ji Gufeng.

"We are not familiar with this Ji Tongzhi, we all follow him to do business for the sake of money, we really don't want to die!"

The paper figurines took over the heads and brought these strong men to Xu Zhiqiong. The remaining [-] people left the village and surrendered that day.

Xu Zhiqiong touched Ji Gufeng's head, and picked off five inches of sinful karma.

His criminal karma is much shorter than that of the magistrate, but what is his purpose for gathering this group of mobs?
This is a good question.

……

In the palace, in the secret pavilion, Emperor Chang Le took a few crossbows and flying knives and handed them to Zhong Shen: "Look, who made this?"

Zhong Can looked at it for a while, then replied, "It's from the penance workshop."

"But you can't read it wrong?"

Zhong Shen pointed to the blade of the flying knife and said: "This method of sharpening the blade is unique to the penance workshop, and the barb of this crossbow arrow is not eye-catching, but once hit by the arrow, it will bleed." It doesn’t stop flowing, this is also a unique method of penance workshop.”

Emperor Changle held the crossbow and the flying knife, and looked at the blood stains on it: "This is Zhiqiong's blood. Ye Ansheng, a bastard, had his share in planting the blood tree. After I succeeded to the throne, he said he would repent I only spared his life because of the previous mistakes, and he came to kill my brother again!"

Emperor Chang Le's expression instantly became ferocious: "Call Yu Shan, take him to Wuwei Camp, and surround me with the Penance Workshop. You go and arrest Ye Ansheng for me personally. If he resists arrest, he will be shot!"
