Heavenly Dao Formula

Chapter 248 Encirclement and Suppression of the Privy Council

A few days later, the mountains in the west of Lingzhou.

A group of alchemists entered the small town of Fang's family outside the mountain.

The team leader is a green sword and a guard—"Lock Weaver" Yan Qing and "Hundred Flower Sword" Duye Taki, and the soldiers under him are all around the fourth or fifth rank. In order to conceal their whereabouts, they did not wear eye-catching alchemist uniforms, but all casual clothes, just like a traveling caravan.

They booked a hotel and took a short rest.

"Is this also the territory of the Six Great Families?" Duye Long patted the dust on the bed, and picked out a hair from the tea pickily, "The hotel is dilapidated, and there are not many people in the town. , not to mention that this is already the territory controlled by the Fang family, I thought I was in a rural village where the birds don't shit."

"What's wrong?" Yan Qing stretched out her fingers, gently picked up a flower spider in the corner of the room, and put it in her palm, "This shows that the influence of the two Fang families is limited, and they will at least not be able to deal with it." It’s as troublesome as Fei’s and Luo’s.”

"Hmph." Bai Huajian hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't drink the bowl of green tea, "I don't know if your Highness's side is going well."

"Don't worry, His Highness Ning rarely makes mistakes. Since he asked us to go to Lingzhou separately, Youzhou must have a perfect plan."

"Hey, can you stop playing with spiders? This thing looks disgusting."

"Will it be?" Yan Qing led the spider to her half-exposed shoulder, "Day after day, year after year, only focus on one thing, no matter how many times the silk is broken, it will make it up, never give up , Never slack off, where does nausea come from?"

Baihuajian showed a look of disgust, and simply refused to look at his partner. After a while, he spoke again, "I said...we really want to attack the Shufa Fang family?"

"Huh? Could it be that you want to betray the Privy Council?"

"What kind of understanding do you have?" Bai Huajian quickly defended, "Our purpose is to let the aristocratic family perish and let alchemists get rid of the control of ordinary people, right?"

"good."

"It's a matter of course to eradicate the Fang family outside the mountain, but according to the information, aren't the Fang family of Shufa all sensitive?"

"Since you have read the information, you should understand that it is the Fang family in the mountains who are really recruiting those who are sensitive, and those outside the mountains are nothing to worry about." Yan Qing replied, "Another action is the last option. If you can Convincing with words is naturally the best solution."

"If He'er hadn't come with us, I would have believed it." Bai Huajian said doubtfully.

"Without He'er's support, do you dare to go deep into the mountains alone to deal with the Fang family?" Yan Qing's tone was flat, as if stating something that had nothing to do with him, "Don't forget what the Fang family is good at. .In addition to fortune-telling, their ability to use poison and repel insects is also first-class. Even if you and I are high-grade alchemists, it is impossible to stop every poisonous insect flying in the forest."

"You're right...it makes sense."

"Besides, those who are sensitive may not necessarily choose to stand on the side of the Privy Council." Yan Qing said calmly, "After all, the Fang family has existed for so long, and not all patriarchs can accept it being ruined in their own hands. If the person who is sensitive is right The Privy Council is hostile and will only be more threatening than ordinary people, the frontier guard is the best example. The crane is insurance and the key to ensure the success of the mission."

"Are you talking about me?"

The door creaked and was pushed open, and He'er walked into the room with his head tilted.

Yan Qing shook off the spider on his shoulder in an instant, smiled and said to the little girl, "What's wrong? Didn't you cry out that you were tired before and wanted to have a good sleep?"

"But...it's hard to sleep alone."

"Then let me accompany you?"

"OK."

Yan Qing picked up He'er and carried him into her arms, "How about this?"

"Hmm...so...comfortable..." He'er had already closed his eyes, as if falling into a peaceful sleep, within a few breaths.

Bai Huajian was dumbfounded by this change of face.

As a newly promoted guard, he looked forward to his colleagues in the Privy Council. He always felt that they were generally stable and strong, so there was nothing wrong with him being frivolous. But now he realized that he was wrong, the woman in front of him was no different from a freak.

"You like children so much, why don't you raise one yourself?"

"That would leave a hole for yourself."

"What's the meaning?"

"I once had a friend... If she is still alive, I'm afraid she has touched the threshold of Yuyi by now." Yan Qing said softly, "It's a pity that because of a child she gave birth to, she was no longer invulnerable, and eventually led to her downfall If you want to go further on this road, you should not show your flaws. Alchemy can only strengthen yourself, but it cannot strengthen those who are closely related to you."

Baihuajian was stunned, and finally cupped his hands and said, "I've been taught."

In the evening, other alchemists also gathered in this room one after another. They also brought with them a large amount of information collected from the Fang family outside the mountain.

"This is the account book, this is the personnel register, and the monthly supplies provided by the Fang family."

"Well, didn't you disturb them?" Yan Qing asked.

"Yes, as soon as they heard that the Privy Council needed to retrieve the records, they immediately took them out." A Bairen replied, "But... are these things really helpful for the operation?"

"The account book represents the total population of the Fang family. The roster can match certain key figures with the intelligence of the Privy Council. The monthly supplies can better reflect the increase or decrease of residents in the mountains." She stacked these booklets on the ground, " It is difficult for ordinary people to accurately define the connection between these conditions, but some techniques can do it, Crane."

"Yes." The energetic He'er stretched out his hands and pressed them on the books, "Xianshu, chess game in the world!"

After a hazy light and shadow, her voice returned to immature, "The probability of success is ninety-nine percent."

Yan Qing said in a deep voice, "Action!"

The alchemists put on black robes and took advantage of the darkness to enter the forest silently. It was He'er who showed them the way——

"Don't relax your vigilance at the intersection of mountains and paths. Although there are no dense trees there, there may be poisonous insect traps hidden in the bushes."

"Report, a nest of poisonous insects has been found ahead, and all of them have been destroyed."

"Fine, move on."

"Although the Fang family is not good at fighting with spells, they can command the guards of the living dead. The latter have weak five senses, so as long as they hold their breath, they can easily pass their surveillance."

"My lord, those big trees in front are the Fang family's tree house."

"Avoid the guards, let's go over from the sky." Yan Qing ordered, "Fox bats!"

"Understood," the alchemist known as the flying fox cast a spell, and his outstretched hands instantly turned into surging black air, enveloping the surrounding alchemists in it. Then he jumped up, flew up to the treetops like waving huge wings, and glided for a short distance between several big trees, and finally landed on the tree house silently.

"Leave one man to put the rope gun, and the rest will follow me."

"yes!"

"According to information, the head of the Fang family lives on the roof of the largest tree. When entering, you should pay extra attention to Fang Jiuzhang and a special undead person. Fang Yu is nothing to worry about. The threat of Fang Jiuzhang lies in the use of poison. Subdue it for a while. The living dead looks like a girl, but its strength should not be underestimated. If you encounter resistance, you don’t have to hold back, you should kill it with all your strength.”

He'er's words are still in his ears.

Yan Qing glanced at Baihuajian, "Do it!"

The two broke through the roof and landed directly in the middle of the room. Almost instantly, the iron chain in her hand penetrated into the ground and quickly spread to the entire tree house. This is the net she made, and any creature that steps into it will become the prey she perceives immediately.

But there was no strange feeling.

The room was quiet, as if the Fang family were still asleep.

"Report, the outside of the house has been controlled, and no guards have been found!"

"Master Yan, there is no trace of an alchemist in this residence, and something seems to be wrong."

Baihuajian took out a fire pocket from his pocket, lit the candle on the table, the flame flickered twice, then stabilized quickly, and the dim yellow light illuminated the tree house little by little.

There was no one on the bed on one side, obviously the Patriarch of the Fang family did not fall asleep here.

What's happening here? Yan Qing frowned, the action plan was leaked? The other party is deliberately leading her into the ring?

"Wait a minute, there seems to be a note on the table." Bai Huajian noticed that on the low table in the center of the room, there was a piece of white paper with a few bold lines written on it.

Yan Qing walked over and picked up the paper.

"The Fang family gave it to you, you're welcome."

"We don't have many disciples, only about thirty or so. We have finished dividing the family property, and we have gone to east, west, north, south, don't read it."

"Don't come looking for it, it won't yield any results. Just treat us as dead, and offer incense sticks for us next year on Qingming Festival, thank you."

"Fang Jiuzhang, Fang Yuliu."
