Chapter 66 Great Chaos is Approaching
Xu Ji, Li Changqiao, and Yang Ruohan looked at the thick barrier, feeling depressed.
"This is the mineral vein derived from that heretical dragon vein. It is said that no matter how you cut it with a knife or axe, you cannot move it even a little bit."
"This damned place is not only unsafe in the sky, but it's also heavily guarded on the ground."
"I don't believe it. We've gone to such great lengths to dig this far, and it can't be stopped by a bunch of broken rocks?"
"squeak!"
At the command of the three white-haired ratmen.
From the shadows, countless slave rats raised their heads and launched an attack on the wall in front of them.
Even iron ore would have to submit to the teeth of rats.
Not to mention a rat swarm.
The main problem is that if too many people die, it will be difficult to explain to superiors.
The three directed the rat swarm to dig while eavesdropping on the sounds from the ground.
Xu Ji, Li Changqiao, and Yang Ruohan actually seized the opportunity.
Song Yingxing is currently in the Tiangong Academy.
Bright lights.
While observing the wooden ox, he had a new idea.
In the temple directly above, the Feather Scale Guard's horse ears drooped impatiently. "It's so noisy, where is this noise coming from?"
They searched inside and outside the palace, but couldn't find a trace of them.
Xu Ji, Li Changqiao, and Yang Ruohan seized the moment when the defenses were most vulnerable and launched an attack on the iron wall in front of them.
"Something doesn't seem right."
"Wait a minute. Tell them to come down first. Why haven't they done anything yet?"
As time passed, the three men realized with a start that their ratmen seemed to be dying rather quickly.
Upon closer inspection, the flawless, jade-like wall was completely unmarked.
After half of the ratmen died and still couldn't leave a single scratch on it, the three of them turned back in resentment.
The black slave ratmen also seemed to sense that something was wrong.
The three could only vent their anger by beating and scolding the black rats, and then give the corpses to the other rat people.
For now, try to calm these restless subordinates.
The more the three thought about it, the more frustrated they became. "Haven't we suffered for nothing?"
"We failed to uncover the secret of Felix Felicis, what should we do?"
According to the astrologers' predictions, the treasure must be behind those thick walls.
It has a treasure mountain, but no one can enter it.
It's truly a pity.
"Since this road is blocked, we cannot return empty-handed. We will bury the Thunderclap Bomb underground and give this evil Taoist a big gift before we leave."
"Let the entire city of Tianjin be buried with our believers!"
Most of those castrated missionaries were already overwhelmed and died from exhaustion.
But there were a few others who were employees of the East India Company, and they needed to find a way to rescue them.
Meanwhile, the righteous followers and tiger warriors on the ground were also taking action.
Just now, a tremor came from the Holy Palace, alarming the two thousand Righteous Warriors and Tiger Warriors, as well as the Six Ding Divine Generals who stayed behind, and they organized a search overnight.
He'd only been gone a day since he took office, and these bastards couldn't wait any longer.
Liu Ji flew into the sky, searching for traces of the enemy in the heavens.
Xu Ji, Li Changqiao, and Yang Ruohan, the three large white rats, complained bitterly and hurriedly drove the rat-man away from the ground. They struggled to shed their rat skins, passed through the ground, and fell into the flesh.
With a shudder.
The three opened their eyes and found their bodies to be so cold and cramped, with a livid spot on their wrists that was so conspicuous.
"It can last for another six months, then this physical body will have to be discarded."
"Be careful. If absolutely necessary, flee for your lives. The Great Horned Rat God will not punish us."
"We'll meet again on Shuangyu Island and make other plans."
After they finished speaking, the three of them ignored the excruciating pain that was raging through every bone in their bodies and forced themselves to sleep.
The Six Ding Gods pushed open the dungeon door to investigate.
The three men lay on the straw, barely alive, their toes blackened and necrotic.
Looking at the three men's miserable state, Liu Ding, the divine general, said, "I have a feeling that these three are up to no good. Why don't we just kill them?"
Xu Ji, Li Changqiao, and Yang Ruohan shuddered upon hearing this.
"I think it would be better to move these three out of the city. After all, this place is too close to the Palace of Saints."
"That's fine then."
The six people reached an agreement.
Xu Ji, Li Changqiao, and Yang Ruohan exchanged a secret glance, realizing that things were getting even more complicated now.
They haven't found the missionaries' locations yet.
How can I escape?
"Should we tell you a little more?"
"We've already sold out the White Lotus Sect once, who will we sell out this time?"
"It's the Yamata no Orochi, that old friend. It's always getting its faith stolen by our lord; it's truly overestimating itself."
The Six Ding Gods did not give them a chance to explain.
The magic power transformed into a silver needle, piercing their foreheads and locking away their magic power. Then, a meteorite iron was used to pierce their shoulder blades, crippling their martial arts skills. Next, their limbs were severed, turning them into human pigs, which were then placed in jars.
They acted quickly and ruthlessly.
The three gritted their teeth, writhing in pain, almost revealing their true forms and giving up their physical bodies.
Tianjin was bustling with activity throughout the night.
The rest of the country was not at peace either.
As Si Chen left, the surrounding Divine Warriors also withdrew overnight, as if their only purpose was to keep an eye on Si Chen's movements.
The mansion of Duke Zhang Shize of England was reduced to ashes.
It was burned completely clean.
However, along with the disappearance of the British Duke, there was also a blank imperial edict stamped with the seals of various ministries.
Although the Ming Dynasty is dying, even a centipede that dies does not fall down completely; it still has some strength left.
The nine gates of the imperial city were rendered useless, allowing various forces to come and go as they pleased.
Zhang Shize hurried out of the city.
Meanwhile, the messenger from Li Zicheng, the spirit of Heze, Qing Ji, was running into the city.
The two passed each other.
Head towards the Imperial Palace from the direction of the Imperial City.
Qing Ji rubbed his empty stomach. "This is such a hassle. Even when we were cooperating with the Duke of Ying, it wasn't this troublesome."
In just a few days, a demon was made to run back and forth between east and west more than ten times. Demons are also born of demon mothers, they have human rights too.
He hoped to repeat his past success by investing in British companies and embarking on a path to wealth.
Who knew that Li Zicheng had gone mad for some reason, as if he was deliberately tormenting him.
And then there's Niu Jinxing, who says that all demons are two-faced villains and not credible, as if they were his father's killer.
While complaining, Qing Ji pulled out a specially made token from his chest, a gift he had received when he was the Duke of England.
"Although we're using the things belonging to our former master to open the gates of this imperial city, this will not be a repeat of the previous instance," Qing Ji convinced himself.
The token blocked the omnipresent humanitarian spirit and fortune within the imperial city.
Qing Ji raised his head to observe the atmosphere.
There was an old dragon struggling in its death throes.
He couldn't help but sigh.
"Old Dragon, when you killed Chen Youliang, did you ever imagine this tragic scene would unfold today?"
This wasn't his first time in the imperial city. Avoiding the palace's spies, he walked easily to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, gazed at the golden bricks inside, and tossed the letter into the hall.
Suddenly, countless flames lit up the surrounding area.
Qing Ji felt a chill run down his spine.
"There's an assassin!"
"Catch the thief!"
Countless warriors rose up from the darkness.
"Oh dear, this is terrible! Where did all these warriors come from!" Qing Ji turned and ran, fleeing in panic.
Zhang Shize slowly turned around outside the city. He had sensed the Zhang family's token in the imperial city, but he didn't expect it to be Qing Ji. "I'll help you one last time, old man."
Zhang Shize took out a scroll and tore it open casually.
The flawless array in the imperial city suddenly experienced a slight blockage, and a crack appeared in the gate that completely separated reality and the spirit world. Qing Ji finally seized the opportunity, opened the spirit world, entered it, and disappeared.
When Luo Yangxing arrived with the Embroidered Uniform Guard and palace eunuchs Fang Zhenghua, Gao Shiming, Li Fengxiang, Cao Huachun, and the eunuchs in charge of various bureaus, Chu Xianzhang and Zhang Guoyuan, along with a group of imperial guards, they only saw a letter. Upon seeing the signature, their expressions changed drastically.
"Something terrible has happened!"
"The thief has broken into the palace!"
