Chapter 358: Separate three routes
At the third hour of Hai, outside the Forbidden City.
The three of them, Yan Danzi and Liang Jingshuo, finally arrived, but they were stopped by the guards at the city gate without any surprise.
Moreover, the people responsible for guarding the city tonight are not only guards, but also Jinyiwei.
"I am the national teacher Yan Danzi. If you have important things, please let it go quickly!" Yan Danzi knew that it was important to do things now and it was not the time to be polite, so he immediately tried to open a path in a rather stern tone.
"What? National Master?" The Jinyiwei who was blocking the door did not know Yan Danzi, but he knew the information that "the national master, the national guardian Tianshi and others were missing for many days." At this moment, someone came out to call him the national master and wanted to enter the imperial city at night, so he didn't dare to be arrogant. "Everyone, wait for me..."
"No need." Suddenly, a voice urged by internal force came from a distance.
As soon as the voice arrived, the body arrived.
But when he saw that man running all the way from the city gate, he was very skilled in lightning, like wind and lightning, he stood behind the city gate guard and the Jinyiwei in the blink of an eye.
This person is not someone else, it is Yun Shili.
"I can testify that this is the national teacher. These two people beside him are also masters invited by the priest. Let them in quickly. I will take care of any matters." Yun Shili did not say nonsense, and as soon as he arrived at the scene, he directed his subordinates to let go.
Although these young men did not have the chance to meet the national teacher on weekdays, Yun Shili and the others naturally knew each other. Since Brother Yun had spoken, they were content to do what they didn't say.
"Please." Two seconds later, the guards immediately dodged and gave way to the three of them immediately.
When the three of them rode by horses, they just greeted each other with their eyes and didn't say much, because both sides knew that this was not the time to stop and say hello, and every minute was very important.
Some people may find it strange, why did Yun Shili come so coincidentally? There are four gates of Guangda Gate in the Forbidden City, and there are other small entrances and exits. How could he just receive these three people at this time and here?
In fact, the answer is not difficult to guess - it was Yuwei Daxian who told Yun Shili not long ago to come to the city gate quickly, otherwise it would be delayed.
So how did Yuwei know that Buddyzi and others would call him here?
It's very simple. The night of Zhongyuan is when monsters and monsters and monsters are at their peak. Jade Tail is good at detecting, so she had noticed it when the three of them approached the imperial city and promptly notified Yun Shili, who was patrolling elsewhere.
Yun Shili's timely release did not help Moji and others save a lot of trouble.
If he didn't come, the three of them had only two choices. Either wait for the Jinyiwei to run back and forth and bring a boss who knew the national teacher to come and let it go. It would waste time in vain or force it to break through...
Some people may say that Isn’t there a “Imperial Gold Medal” given to the Heavenly Masters of the Nation that the Emperor gave to the National Guardians? Is that useless?
Oh, that's what makes you "do it cheaply" in the capital. Will it work in the imperial city?
Let’s take a step back, even if it was used a little before, it would be useless tonight.
Because tonight, Zhu Wei had ordered strict defenses inside and outside the Forbidden City: In addition to mobilizing the original imperial guards to strengthen the defense around his bedroom, he also made the garrison arrangements of "Outer City Jinyiwei, Inner City East Factory", and pulled out all the elites of these secret service agencies to stand guard for the night shift of the imperial city. What's even more outrageous is that Zhu Wei actually placed all the monks captured from Zhihua Temple in Fengxian Hall, allowing them to meditate and recite scriptures overnight, and they were not allowed to stop until dawn.
He had no choice, who made you, Dao Master, disappear with me? You first spoiled with me that there were demons and evil spirits going to rush into the Forbidden City on the night of the Zhongyuan Festival, and then he went to Zhihua Temple to surf and disappeared. What else can I do?
Fortunately, no matter what, at this last moment, the people came.
Let’s talk about the three of them riding into the inner city and soon met several Dongchang’s actors. Fortunately, there was a stall in the audience. He knew Yan Danzi. When this guy saw that the national teacher who had been missing for many days had returned, he was surprised and relieved. After all, what their Dongchang was doing tonight should have been the responsibility of the national teacher.
This man was also very clever and quickly asked his men to take off the waist cards that were temporarily distributed tonight and handed them over to these three Taoist priests. With this, he could walk around the inner city at will.
Yan Danzi took the waist card and thanked the one. While they were communicating, Budzi seized the time and calculated it again, and then said to Yan Danzi and Liang Jingshuo: "Fortunately, Yan Danzi and I were ready a few days before being trapped in Zhihua Temple, so there is enough time now... After I fully activated the "Imperial City Formation", we will guard one place separately. When the yin energy between heaven and earth is strong, the dead will enter the city; at that time, except for the "Impermanence Tai Sui", the remaining five zodiac signs are the wood tiger, the big fire rabbit, the longevity dragon, the quail-headed sheep and the zodiac pig. Due to the influence of the formation, they will have to enter from the corresponding "life gate" of their respective destiny, and we... just ambush at the predetermined location."
"Senior, where should we guard each?" Yan Danzi asked.
"The wood tiger, the big fire rabbit, and the longevity dragon are all wood-elephant stars, and they must go to Donghua Gate." The Mobi replied, "The quail-headed sheep belongs to the fire-elephant stars, and you should go to the Wu Gate, while the zizi is the water-elephant stars, and it will go to the Xuanwu Gate."
When I saw this, someone might ask, why doesn’t Xihuamen kill monsters? Haven’t you decided to guard the fourth route before?
Then you might as well recall that when they set up their formation, there were still eight or nine dead figures left. At that time, they had to prepare for full defense of all four routes. After all, they didn’t know that they would encounter multiple dead figures in the Battle of Zhihua Temple later, and they didn’t know which ones they would encounter and which ones they would destroy.
The road to Xihuamen is now empty, which is undoubtedly a good thing. The three of them are just enough to go to Sanlu.
"The Donghua Gate is not to mention, I will be responsible for the most dangerous journey." Buddyzi continued, "Yan Danzi, you are good at using thunder spells to fight the enemy. Thunder belongs to wood, and the formation... Your formation belongs to earth; water produces wood, earth overcomes water, and you are pressing against the stars in both aspects, so it is more appropriate for you to go to Xuanwu Gate to deal with the elves pig." He paused and looked at Liang Jingshuo again, "Jingshuo, although your practice is shallow, fortunately there is still a 'Purification of the God Talisman' in your hand, and the quail-headed sheep will be handed to you."
"Okay." Liang Jingshuo held his fists and bowed, "I should do my best."
After explaining these, the three of them followed the arrangement of the movable man and headed towards the east, north and south respectively.
At this time, there is still a quarter of an hour before midnight.
…………
At the same time, Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai had already ridden on their horses and ran on the way to the Forbidden City.
Because Qin Feng, Linghu Xiang and Lin Yuancheng were both seriously injured, Yu Jianli and Tyrel were at the end of their strength after the fierce battle, so the only ones who could come back to help were now Sun and Huang.
While rushing to the road, the two were discussing the notes about the Moving Note.
"I've said it a long time ago. The boy named Liang is indeed a 25-year-old boy, so it's not my fault to release the death figure!" Sun Yixi's speech was still so ruthless.
"Stop talking nonsense, you are forcibly explaining to get rid of the blame." Huang Donglai didn't like his trick. "Even if Liang Jingshuo had problems, he definitely didn't have them in Yandengpo. If he had problems at that time, then before he met us, he would have let all the deaths go."
"Oh?" Sun Yixie followed his words, "You mean, he had a problem before coming to the capital?"
"It's very likely." Huang Donglai said, "I just don't know if he was transferred or turned evil, or if he was hit with some mental control methods."
"No, if he is transferred, possessed, or hit by some magic, your master will not be able to see it?" Sun Yixie said.
"Didn't he see this? He also wrote notes to remind us." Huang Donglai said.
"It's not right." Sun Yixie was not arguing, but really cautious. "If he had seen it a long time ago, why didn't he point it out or solve the problem? Instead, pretending not to know and hand us a note at this opportunity?"
"Then what do you mean?" Huang Donglai said suspiciously.
