As Jiang Zhinian finished speaking, Wei Jiu and the others indeed saw snakes and insects coming towards them in the bushes. They were so densely packed that it was creepy.

Even though Wei Jiu and his team had received rigorous training, they had never seen such a scene.

The sound of the flute became faster and faster, and the snakes and insects seemed to be attacking them.

But when they were about to attack, they seemed to encounter something terrible and automatically avoided it.

I just walked around them, not daring to get close to them.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that they were just moving around on the periphery and didn't dare to get close.

Jiang Zhinian stood in the middle, watching this scene with a cold expression.

Fortunately, she had made sufficient preparations before coming to the mountain.

The medicine packs she prepared for each secret guard were made from unique and precious medicinal materials.

Someone was playing a flute in secret, and the sound became sharper and sharper. The snakes and insects were controlled to attack forward, but they instinctively did not dare to get close, so they started twisting back and forth like crazy.

"Master, are we going to get rid of that flute player?"

When they heard the sound of the flute, their blood boiled and they felt very uncomfortable.

I feel that this sound is very harsh and is not a normal flute sound at all.

Jiang Zhinian said: "Of course we have to get rid of him, don't act rashly."

Gu Masters are not easy to deal with, and we can only deal with them in their own way.

So even though the sound of the flute was very sharp and harsh, making people feel uncomfortable, Jiang Zhinian was still listening carefully.

She was listening to the melody of the flute.

The person behind should play the flute to control these snakes and insects.

These snakes and insects should be trained frequently.

So the melody of the flute is the most important.

After listening for a while, Jiang Zhinian understood what was going on, and then he took out a small flute and started playing it.

The sound of the flute played by Jiang Zhinian was almost the same as the other party's melody, but at the same time, some parts were changed.

Moreover, as Jiang Zhinian played more and more, the sound of his flute drowned out the other person's flute.

So much so that these snakes and insects began to attack the person behind.

The man didn't seem to expect something like this to happen. Perhaps the snakes and insects attacked him, so there were obvious mistakes in the sound of the flute he played.

There was even a few pauses.

Only after the snakes and insects surrounding them quickly left did they feel safe.

When the secret guards saw those snakes and insects, they quickly became nervous.

They were afraid that the snakes and insects would hurt their masters.

Therefore, they have always kept their master in the middle and dared not take it lightly.

Only at this point did they breathe a sigh of relief.

No wonder the villagers don’t dare to come up, it’s really dangerous here.

If the master had not been prepared, they might all have died here.

No matter how good their kung fu skills are or how well they are trained, they cannot fight against so many snakes and insects.

If you are not careful, you will be killed by them.

Just one bite and they could fall down instantly.

But the most powerful one is their master, who had made sufficient preparations from the very beginning.

What’s more, the master can actually play the flute and can even control these snakes and insects. It’s incredible.

If you ask who they admire most in their hearts, it is still their master.

They are truly convinced by their master.

They probably now understood why the rulers of Yan State had never made up their minds to send troops to eliminate those spies in southern Xinjiang.

Even though so many spies were sent to Southern Xinjiang, the emperor still had to think carefully about how he treated the Southern Xinjiang side.

In fact, even if we sent elite troops there, they might not even reach the southern border because they would be defeated by these things.

Perhaps it is because of this that the remnants of the previous dynasty hid in such a place to recuperate.

And cooperate with Southern Xinjiang.

"what!"

"Go away, go away..."

Suddenly there was a scream and the flute sound stopped abruptly.

Soon the screams stopped.

Jiang Zhinian saw that it was almost done, so he put away the flute.

"Let's go over and have a look."

Following the direction of the sound, Jiang Zhinian and the secret guards went over to take a look.

A man in a black robe with pits on his face was found lying dead on the ground. His whole body was black, and it was obvious that he had been poisoned.

And the snakes and insects have faded away.

"Is this person the Gu Master?"

Jiang Zhinian nodded and said, "It should be!"

As he spoke, Jiang Zhinian put on gloves and began to prepare to examine the Gu Master.

"Master, let's go!"

Jiang Zhinian said, "You don't understand Gu Master, don't act rashly."

Jiang Zhinian checked carefully and found a small box. When he opened it, he saw a pair of poisonous insects inside.

When the secret guards saw this, their faces turned pale and they were horrified.

However, they found that their master didn't seem to be afraid at all, and even gently poked the poisonous insect in the box with his hand.

"One is a mother Gu, the other is a child Gu, and this one is actually a puppet Gu!"

"This is good stuff."

When Jiang Zhinian saw this, a smile appeared on his face.

According to the information she knew, puppet Gu was difficult to cultivate.

But with the puppet Gu, by planting the seed Gu in anyone, that person can be turned into a puppet.

The person holding the mother Gu can control the puppet.

Jiang Zhinian collected the poisonous insects and put them in a bag she made with medicine, letting them sleep temporarily.

When she wants to use them, just use medicine to wake her up.

Jiang Zhinian checked again and suddenly saw wet dirt on the corner of the man's clothes.

But this kind of soil is very special, different from ordinary soil.

"This... this is iron ore soil!"

Realizing this, Jiang Zhinian's voice trembled with excitement.

She knew what iron ore meant.

If there were iron mines, there would be more weapons. The soldiers of Yan State would be equipped with sophisticated weapons, their combat effectiveness would be enhanced, and their chances of surviving the war would increase.

She still remembered what Yan Jiyou had said before, that many soldiers’ weapons at the border were old, but there were no new weapons to replace them.

The territory of Dayan is vast, and there are many generals and soldiers stationed at the border. Even if the Ministry of War has produced good weapons and equipment, it is impossible to replenish all the soldiers.

There is still a lack of iron ore.

However, the Northern Rong had stockpiled a lot of weapons over the years, so they dared to attack the border this time, hoping to march straight in and occupy the territory of Yan State.

"iron ore?"

Wei Jiu and the others were all shocked.

"Master, someone deliberately prevented people from entering the mountains. Is it because they are afraid that this secret will be discovered?"

Jiang Zhinian nodded and said, "I was still guessing what the reason was before, but now I know what it is."

"It's probably because of the iron ore. It's also possible that someone is making iron tools here."

Jiang Zhinian suspected that this was a stronghold of southern Xinjiang or even the previous dynasty.

If that were the case, they would have certainly built a lot of weapons to start a war.

This matter must be told to Yan Jiyou as soon as possible.

"Wei Jiu, take your men down the mountain first and tell His Royal Highness the Crown Prince the news."

"Master, we will stay to protect you."

Jiang Zhinian said, "Don't worry, I won't act rashly. I'll just take Wei Shiliu and the others to explore the terrain here. It would be best if we can find the place where they forge weapons."

"I won't act rashly. I'll just do a simple investigation."

Now that he's here, Jiang Zhinian wants to figure this out.

If there really were weapons here, she would want to take them out.

Perhaps it can also be transported to the border to support the war there.
