On the Avenue

Zhuang Wu Jiu immediately returned from the Yang Realm.

"Lord Guangxiao!"

He shouted loudly, and Lord Guangxiao flew over and took him towards the black iron pillar!

Lord Guangxiao is comparable to a being in the Mahayana realm. He is extremely fast. Even if Hei Guo runs at full speed from Xijing to the big iron pillar, it would take less than half an hour. But Lord Guangxiao takes Zhuang Wujiu with him, and it only takes a quarter of an hour.

The two of them paused, and Zhuang Wu Jiu immediately searched around, trying to find the person who collected the treasure. However, the place was completely white, and there were no ghosts, let alone people!

The man who grabbed the treasure obviously wouldn't stay where he was, waiting for him to catch him, so he would naturally run away!

"Lord Guangxiao, in the underworld!"

Zhuang Wujiu shouted loudly, and Lord Guangxiao immediately led him to break through the barrier between Yin and Yang and appear in the Yang world.

They appeared on a post road passing through Dongshan Mountain in Xijing.

It was night at this time, and before dawn, people were already coming and going on the post road. This road is the main route between counties in the east of Jinzhou Province, and there are many cars and horses. There were caravans coming and going, convoys going to Beijing to deliver food and meat, barefoot porters, and scholars traveling around. The traffic was busy and it was extremely lively.

There are peach charms hung on the horses of the carriage, lanterns are carried, and there are guards in brocade to protect them. There is a shrine floating behind the head to guard against the incoming evil spirits.

In the past few months, because Hongshan Hall's talisman masters were active in the countryside, many evil spirits were eliminated. The number of evil spirits nearby became less and less, and walking at night became much safer. However, after all, there are still evil spirits roaming around, so the caravan still has to hire royal guards to protect its safety.

Zhuang Wujiu stood on the post road, looking at the people coming and going, his heart felt cold.

In this case, it is difficult to find the person who captured the treasure, not to mention that the person who captured the treasure may not take this path!

"The main reason why I came out this time was for this treasure. I have been practicing hard and doing research for these years, hoping to get this treasure in my pocket! Now that this treasure is missing, wouldn't it be that all these years of hard work have been in vain? ?”

He was extremely melancholy, and a wave of hostility surged into his heart, "Who is spying on me secretly to steal my magic weapon? This person must be insidious and cunning. He secretly observed the steps I took to collect the treasure and secretly learned my skills in refining the treasure. Go! When I fail to collect the treasure, he will come to collect it immediately!"

He was both angry and a little wary.

That treasure is a remnant from ancient times, and it is incredibly powerful.

He heard that it was a treasure left by an ancient god. For some reason, the ancient god disappeared. This treasure had not yet been refined, so it stood between heaven and earth, allowing it to be tempered by the five innate energies of heaven and earth. Today, I don’t know how many years have passed, and I have finally matured.

He was ordered to go out of the mountain, made all preparations, and came here with great ambition for this treasure, but he was still picked from the peach!

Zhuang Wujiu was devastated, but then he cheered up: "It's not that easy to seize my treasure and run away! Guangxiao, you immediately mobilize all the heavenly listeners to monitor all the movements in Xijing and a thousand miles away!"

Guangxiao said yes and flew away immediately.

Soon there were many more Heavenly Listeners inside and outside Xijing. Although there were a lot of Heavenly Listeners before, most of them were spying on princes, nobles, and people with relatively high status in Xijing. But this time it seems different, even the homes of ordinary people. There are also heavenly listeners coming and going around, listening attentively.

For a time, there was a complete silence inside and outside Xijing. People did not dare to speak when they met, and often pointed with their eyes.

It didn't take long for people to discover that these Heavenly Listeners were extremely sensitive to words such as stick, iron rod, and black iron. If one of these words was accidentally spoken, seven or eight Heavenly Listeners would immediately appear around to record the speaker. words and deeds.

When Chen Shi returned home, it was already dark, and there were many Tianlisten around Chen's house. However, the Chen family was busy repairing the house, so this matter did not have much impact on them.

Chen Tang ran away from home after seeing him getting into trouble, and now he came back with a black stick. Apparently he was too fierce and scared his son. The son went outside to pick up a stick to defend himself, fearing that he would be beaten.

Most of the anger in his heart disappeared, and he said to Chen Shi: "A loving father often loses his son. The wealth I have saved over the years cannot stand your repeated efforts. I have no money, and I still owe the mason's money. You pay the bill." stop."

Chen Shi smiled and said: "If you want me to tell you, stop cultivating. After receiving my mother, we will go back to Qianyang Mountain and not stay in Xijing."

Chen Tang thought for a while and nodded: "We will go back after receiving your mother. However, this yard still needs to be repaired, and if you go to Beijing, you still need a place to stay. You pay."

Chen Shi said: "Uncle Xiao Wu has saved a lot of money in Juxian Tower. If you don't have any money, go to Juxian Tower to get it. Just say that you are Chen Wu's brother and Chen Shi's father, so you should be able to spend some money."

Chen Tang snorted. He and Creation Xiao Wu were sworn enemies. He had been bullied by Creation Xiao Wu since he was a child. How could he use his money?

"But you can use your son's money." He thought to himself.

Chen Shi let the black pot influence other people's thinking, took out the black iron stick, and looked at it carefully.

I saw that the object was only three feet and eight inches long. It was slightly thicker at the front and tail, but not much. It was only as thick as a baby's arm. It had extremely complex textures on it. Because the whole body was pitch black, these textures were not eye-catching.

Chen Shi waved it casually, making it look very heavy, but other than that, it seemed to have no other use.

"It's good for hitting people. Try the power first."

Chen Shi tried to pour his own energy and blood into it, but the black iron rod showed no change.

After burning a few more sticks of incense, the black iron rod absorbed the scent of the incense, but there was no feeling of connection with his mind.

Chen Shi pondered for a moment, planning to activate the fourth new talisman and use the Zhoutian Fire Realm to activate this treasure. He suddenly thought that this thing was huge in the underworld. If it suddenly became bigger, I am afraid that the Chen family would not be able to bear it.

He immediately took the fox and grape mirror and entered the small heavens in the mirror.

At this time, some Talisman masters from Hongshan Hall have entered Xiaozhutian to practice, and some disciples from Luban Sect are building houses. They plan to build some houses here for the monks who enter here to retreat.

There are also people who carve stele here and engrave the various exercises taught by Chen Shi on the stele to facilitate others to understand and practice. Yutiancheng and others have already started to make a new Heavenly Court Order, which is a jade pendant and ordered to be given to Heavenly Court members.

These things are trivial matters and do not require Chen Shi's intervention.

Chen Shi looked for an open space, grabbed the black iron rod with his right hand, stirred up his vitality, and condensed his energy and blood to form the fourth new talisman. Suddenly, the surroundings were filled with flames, and a surrounding fire realm was instantly formed. The five innate Qi intertwined around the black iron pillar. circulation.

"Buzz!"

Accompanied by a tremor, Chen Shi suddenly felt an immense weight pressing down on him, and he fell forward involuntarily.

At the same time, the black iron rod in his hand extended for an unknown length with a hiss, and he could only see the light suddenly appearing on the barrier of Xiaozhutian in the distance, as if it was hit by a heavy object!

This Little Heaven is made from the Void Realm of the two ancestors of the Li family, Li Xinshu and Li Kunyu. It is hundreds of miles wide. The position where Chen Shi is standing is more than 200 miles away from the edge of the Little Heaven!

Several talisman masters who were practicing on the edge of Xiaozhutian hurriedly ran forward. They saw a thick black iron rod piercing through the barrier of Xiaozhutian. They couldn't help but be horrified. They quickly left Xiaozhutian and went to report to Yutian City. : "The instructor stabbed the sky with a stick! Poke a hole in the sky!"

Yutiancheng said in surprise: "Is this happening?"

He was at the helm of Hongshan Hall in Gaoshan County and came out quickly. He was about to go to offer sacrifices to the Heavenly Court Order and enter Xiaozhutian to take a look when he suddenly noticed that many talisman masters in the helm raised their heads and looked blankly in the direction of Xijing.

Some Talisman masters climbed to the roof and looked up.

Several advanced Talisman masters flew into the air and stared blankly in the direction of Xijing.

Yutiancheng was confused and hurriedly flew into the air and looked towards Xijing. He couldn't help but look dull and murmured: "What's going on?"

Qingyang and Hu Xiaoliang were also in Hongshan Hall. Seeing the excitement, Qingyang jumped into the air first and said with a smile: "What are you looking at? Let me see... what a big stick!"

He looked dull and his goatee was trembling.

When Hu Xiaoliang saw this, he quickly came to the air and looked towards Xijing, and couldn't help but stare straight. In Xijing City, a huge black iron pillar came out of nowhere, pierced through Xijing City, and stood diagonally in the air like a black cannon.

Hu Xiaoliang murmured: "Xijing, I'm afraid it's going to explode, right? Who did it?" Everyone shook their heads.

Yutiancheng was about to speak when he suddenly remembered that the talisman masters who had informed him just now said that Chen Shi had poked a hole in the sky. He couldn't help but shudder and quickly fell from the sky. He hurriedly took out the Heavenly Court Order and was about to enter Xiaozhutian.

At this time, outside the Meridian Gate of Xijing, it was deserted and deserted. There were only a few eunuchs cleaning the place.

It is now the time to go to court, and the ministers are all discussing matters in the hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. This is a rule passed down for thousands of years and cannot be changed.

There was a noise in the court, and the eunuchs sweeping the floor outside were used to it.

It would be a weird thing if all the civil and military officials in Xijing went to court on one day and did not make any noise.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and the Meridian Gate, which had stood for thousands of years, was smashed into pieces. As the thunder shook, an extremely thick black iron pillar whizzed past the heads of the sweeping eunuchs, like a A human cannon was placed on the white jade stone steps in front of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, tearing apart the top few stone steps.

The extremely thick pillar penetrated into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, flying off the roof and back hall of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and passed by the roof of Wuying Hall, one of the nine halls behind!

Wuying Palace is the important treasure left by the true king. It was immediately inspired, and the treasure light shot into the sky, exuding unparalleled power!

The eunuchs who were sweeping the floor looked dull, and there was a slight peeling sound in the space around them, like the space was cracking, or like the sound of residual thunder and lightning exploding.

One of the eunuchs turned his head with difficulty and looked at the source of the black iron pillar. He saw that the pillar passed through the center of the Meridian Gate, and there was an empty space behind it, as if it had appeared suddenly, and the source could not be found.

As for the Meridian Gate, there are only two door pillars left, which can just support the black iron pillar. ——It is said to be a black iron pillar, but this pillar is too thick. Even if dozens of people surround it, they may not be able to hug it.

In the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the expressions of the civil and military officials froze on their faces, maintaining the same demeanor as when they were quarreling just now. The hall above them was in danger of being melted due to violent friction. Huge black iron pillars pressed on top of their heads, causing them to suffer. There is a huge sense of oppression, and the texture on it is twisted and weird, making people's hearts tremble.

The Hall of Supreme Harmony made a crackling sound, as if something was exploding.

Yan Xianzhi, the chief minister of the cabinet, was the first to wake up and hurriedly went to hold his official hat. He was shocked just now and his official hat was tilted to one side.

He hurriedly ran outside and shouted: "Quick! Quick! Go see what's going on!"

The civil and military officials hurriedly ran out, only to see the huge black iron pillar piercing through Xijing City and reaching the outside of the city for an unknown length.

This thing is straight and has no tendency to bend at all! The eyes of the civil and military officials twitched.

At the same time, Zhuang Wujiu also saw this black iron pillar. He couldn't help being shocked and hurried over to this side, thinking to himself: "The thief is indeed still in Xijing City! This time, let's see where you can escape." !”

He flew over, but before he landed, he suddenly saw the black iron pillar shrinking and shrinking rapidly, and disappeared with a hiss!

Zhuang Wujiu landed and came to the Meridian Gate. The two pillars of the Meridian Gate were swaying and collapsed.

Even though he couldn't express his emotions or anger, he couldn't help but get angry at this moment: "This person actually used this method to provoke me! Provoke Despair Slope! How brave!"

Yan Xianzhi's face was livid, he made a sharp cry, and said sternly: "Check! Find out for me! Who did it!"

In Xiaozhutian, Chen Shi's hand was suppressed by a stick, his shoulder was dislocated and he could not move. He had no idea how much commotion there was outside this treasure trial.

The stick at his end has not become thicker, but has become many times longer. It can still be held, but it is too heavy. It is extremely difficult to even lift his hand out, let alone lift it!

Chen Yong tried his best to pull his hand, but he couldn't move it. It hurt so much when he moved. He thought to himself: "My finger bones may be crushed! This stick is good, but how can I stop it?"

His heart moved slightly, trying to take back the energy of the Zhoutian Fire Realm and the Innate Five Elements around his body. Suddenly, with a swish sound, the black iron pillar turned back into an ordinary stick and appeared in his hand.

Chen Shi got up, changed his hand, picked up the black iron stick, and danced, thinking: "This thing is good for you, but it doesn't work for you after you lift it up. It's too heavy and can't be danced at all." . However, this object is extremely hard and can be used to perform magical powers such as the Thousand Miles Flying Sword Technique. It can fly hundreds of miles away to stab people, and then suddenly grow bigger!

When Yutiancheng and others entered Xiaozhutian, Chen Shi had already left Xiaozhutian and did not meet them.

Chen Tang went to Wuchang Street to buy steamed buns with soy milk and fried dough sticks, and also packed some pickles. ——Yesterday when Chen Shi was trying out the third new talisman, the kitchen was also bombed. The black pot had nowhere to cook, so he had to buy breakfast.

The father and son were eating pickles and nibbling steamed buns. Chen Tang talked about what he had seen and said: "When I went out to buy food, something big happened in Xijing. When I walked to the intersection of our Qianyang Street with my breakfast, I heard a roar. A black pillar appeared from the Meridian Gate and pierced the Xijing City. The Hall of Supreme Harmony collapsed. I waited for a while before returning. Fortunately, the food was still hot. "

Chen Shi's heart moved slightly: "Black pillar?"

Chen Tang looked solemn and said, "I suspect that evil spirits have entered Xijing. Otherwise, why did the Meridian Gate collapse?"

Chen Shi quietly glanced at the iron bar standing in the corner and remained calm.

Chen Tang noticed his gaze, glanced at the iron rod, and then looked away. This iron rod is too ordinary. It should be something Chen Yong uses to practice swordsmanship, not even a talisman weapon.

After breakfast, Heiguo put on his apron and put away the dishes, when there was a knock on the door outside.

Heiguo quickly wiped his hands and opened the door. He saw the boat girl standing outside the door in ragged clothes. She was dusty and had old blue and black wounds on her face. She was holding a broken bamboo pole in her hand. Most of it had been broken. When she saw Heiguo, she was embarrassed. He smiled and said, "Is Mr. Jieyuan here..."
