Pushing the Martial Arts: Starting from the Tiger Roaring Golden Bell

Chu State!

The Chu State was not the strongest dynasty among the wasteland countries, but it was not the weakest either. It could be considered a moderately powerful country.

Chu State is adjacent to Daqian State and Wei State. To get here from the Daying Dynasty, you have to cross Wei State.

Wei Fan and Ji Qingyue hurried on their way, and it took them three days to fly from the Daying Dynasty to the border of the Chu Kingdom.

"Why does this Chu State look like a big tomb?"

Wei Fan showed a strange expression.

This was not the first time he passed by the border of the Chu Kingdom. The first time he passed by here to rush to the Demon Hunter Branch Hall of the Daqian Kingdom, he didn't feel much.

But when he flew over here again when he returned to Daying Dynasty from Daqian Kingdom, he vaguely felt that something was wrong with the outline of Chu Kingdom.

Now that he was here for the third time, he finally discovered where something wrong came from.

Looking down from the clouds, the outline of Chu State looks like a huge and boundless tomb, as if the people of Chu State live on top of the tomb.

Ji Qingyue nodded: "Have you noticed it too? In fact, after flying over the Chu Kingdom, many powerful warriors felt that this place was like a big tomb. There were even experts who came to personally explore it. It was not a big tomb, it was just geographical. Special shape.

Moreover, who is qualified to build such a large tomb, and how much manpower and material resources must be spent to build such a large tomb. "

Wei Fan was not the first person to discover the strange geography of the Chu Kingdom. Generally, when a strong martial artist flew over the Chu Kingdom, he would be able to spot the special shape here as long as he paid attention.

It’s just that this is really not a big tomb.

A huge tomb comparable to the size of a country. What kind of person must be qualified to build such a tomb?

Wei Fan also felt that this place was not a big tomb, but had a special landform.

"Let's go down and get something to eat!"

The two flew for a while, and an extremely large city appeared on the horizon ahead. Judging from its size, it should be a large city at the level of a state city.

"There is no great power?"

As he got closer and landed near this big city, Wei Fan discovered that this big city, which was comparable in size to a state city, had no large formations and had no power to deter demons.

This situation is quite dangerous. Some demons have secret techniques that even martial arts masters may not be able to identify the demons. If the demons are allowed to sneak in, the casualties will be very serious.

Only by setting up a large formation and a powerful city, no matter what monsters and monsters you have, you will be suppressed and killed as soon as you get close.

Low-level demons would be killed if they approached, but powerful demons would not sneak into a large human city just to kill a few people secretly.

Ji Qingyue said: "The demon disaster in Chu State is not serious. There are only two states where they are bordering the demons. This is the hinterland, so there should be no need to set up a large formation!"

A large formation covering a population of millions is not easy to set up, and the consumption involved can bankrupt most ordinary top forces.

It has been more than a thousand years since the Yunhua Sect was founded, but it has only been able to set up a large formation to cover a small city with a population of 70,000 or 80,000 people. You must know that even the Divine Sword Sect, which had defeated Fan, was unable to set up a large formation to cover the entire sect.

This kind of formation not only requires special people to set up, but also requires a large number of magical soldiers. The demon disaster in Chu State is not serious, so it is normal not to set up the formation.

That is to say, Wei Fan has not been to many places. In many dynasties where evil disasters were not serious, formations were rarely deployed in other big cities except Kyoto.

Because this formation does not have much power to defend against enemies other than killing the approaching demons.

As he got closer, Wei Fan discovered that although there was no large formation, entry into the city was very strict.

Generally, in a city with a powerful formation, entry and exit are very casual, and the entrance is guarded by some ordinary soldiers.

However, Wei Fan discovered that not only did people have to queue up to enter the entrance, but there were also heavenly martial arts masters among the soldiers who were constantly using Zhan Wangqi's magic to observe everyone who wanted to enter the city.

Wei Fan shook his head. This method was somewhat effective, but not very effective. A monster that dared to sneak into such a big city must have some means of avoiding the magic of looking at the spirit to identify the monster.

He looked up and saw two Chinese characters "Ningcheng" with flying phoenixes engraved on the top of the city.

"no problem!"

"This is no problem!"

…

Zhou Shaobing repeats the same actions, watching everyone who enters the city using the magic of fortune telling. Once he finds someone has a problem, he will immediately alert his companions.

Once again, he used the Zhanzhan Qi Demon Distinguishing Technique. He suddenly saw a golden light in the corner of his eye, and subconsciously looked in the direction of the golden light.

The next moment, he felt like he was staring directly into the scorching sun, his eyes almost went blind, and there was a stinging pain.

"not good!"

Although he immediately gave up his magic skills, his eyes still shed two lines of hot tears in an instant.

When his vision returned, he saw that the golden light before was as bright as the scorching sun, a man and a woman, lining up to enter the city.

"A strong and dignified martial artist, why are you here in line? Are you kidding me..."

Zhou Shaobing was helpless for a moment, knowing that he had seen something he shouldn't have seen. How could a powerful martial artist like him, a celestial martial artist, be able to spy on him?

"Stop!"

While telling his soldiers to stop letting people into the city, he ran over, leaned over and said, "You two adults, you don't need to queue up, you can go in directly!"

The strong warriors have to queue up, and those with bad tempers may have already been beaten.

"good!"

Wei Fan and Ji Qingyue looked at each other, left the team and went directly into the city. The people around them were surprised and they were all guessing their identities. They actually asked the city guard Zhou Lieutenant to come over in person and nodded and bowed to invite them into the city.

"We seem to have forgotten to restrain our aura and injured the captain!"

Ji Qingyue somewhat realized why Zhou Shaobing looked like he had been crying.

Wei Fan shook his head, he had not forgotten, but it would also be troublesome if he restrained his aura so that Zhou Shaobing could not see anything.

Being dazzled by the light of the golden body is not a serious injury, and can be recovered by using the true power a few times.

The two of them entered the city. Along the way, Ji Qingyue's otherworldly appearance attracted many people's attention and turned around frequently.

In fact, not to mention Ji Qingyue, even Wei Fan was used to this situation.

The two walked for a while, found a decent restaurant and sat down, ordered some wine and food and started eating.

While the two were eating, they appreciated the different customs and customs of Chu State.

“Shopkeeper, it’s time to pay this month’s interest!”

Suddenly, several people with deep auras walked into the restaurant. Their steps were steady, their mouths were calloused, and their energy and blood were strong. At first glance, they were warriors with high level of cultivation.

Gangs charge protection fees!

In fact, this kind of thing is not uncommon in every dynasty. It even happens in Nanchuan City, where the Demon Hunter Branch Hall is located. Even the small restaurant used by the Demon Hunter Branch Hall to hide its identity is used by the gangs that manage it.

But Ji Qingyue's brows furrowed, not because these people were charging protection fees, but because he smelled a demonic scent from these people.

Wei Fan nodded slightly, and Ji Qingyue could smell it. Naturally, he also smelled the stench that belonged exclusively to demons.

He glanced at these people and found that there was no response from the panel, which meant that there was nothing wrong with these people. They probably had unintentional contact with monsters and did not know it, so they had a faint aura of monsters.

After the money collectors left, Ji Qingyue looked at Wei Fan: "Would you like to go take a look?"

Wei Fan nodded: "Isn't that what we demon hunter inspectors do!"

The Demon Hunter Inspector monitors all countries, not only the battlefields, but also whether there are hidden monsters in each city. In fact, Wei Fan has been coming and going during this period, which is seriously inconsistent with the status of the Demon Hunter Inspector.

As a demon hunter inspector, he should be walking around various cities to find problems, rather than just flying away wherever he wants to go.

"Boy, come here!"

He waved to the waiter in the restaurant and called him over.

The waiter nodded and ran over: "What orders do you two guests have?"

Wei Fan took out a piece of broken silver and put it on the table, saying, "Who are the people who came to collect money just now?"

When the waiter heard this, his expression changed slightly, as if he didn't want to say anything.

However, seeing the considerable amount of money, he finally gritted his teeth and whispered: "They are from Qingmu Hall. If you two are seeking revenge or doing chivalry, I advise you not to go. This Qingmu Hall is the largest in Ningzhou City." Gang, it is said that the leader is a master!"

When he saw Wei Fan and Ji Qingyue asking about Qingmu Hall, he thought they were seeking revenge, or that the young man had just come out of the world, saw the underworld figures causing trouble, and wanted to act chivalrously, so he couldn't help but bring up the cultivation level of the master of Qingmu Hall to frighten the two. .

Wei Fan shook his head: "We are not seeking revenge, nor are we doing chivalry. We are just curious about how such a big restaurant like yours still offers sacrifices. By the way, do you know where the Qingmu Hall is?"

"..."

I almost believed you!

The waiter looked frightened: "I'm sorry, sir, I can't talk to you!"

If he was really curious and asked about it, he asked for the address and said he was not looking for trouble. He didn't dare to tell the location of Qingmutang. If something happened, Qingmudang would definitely find him.

"Stay back!"

When Wei Fan saw this, he didn't embarrass the waiter. Ordinary people really couldn't offend a behemoth like Qingmutang.

The two of them finished their meal leisurely, walked out of the restaurant, and were about to find someone to inquire about the location of Aoki Hall. However, they saw several soldiers in armor coming not far away. The leader was the one who was there before. The Tianren martial arts school captain at the gate of Ningzhou City.

"come over!"

Wei Fan waved, and Zhou Shaobing immediately walked over quickly, cupping his hands and saying, "What are your orders, sir?"

Wei Fan glanced at the soldiers behind Zhou Shaobing: "Are you on duty?"

Zhou Shaobing nodded with some resentment. He hurt his eye and had to ask another captain to take charge.

Wei Fan said: "Do you know where Qingmu Hall is?"

Zhou Shaobing nodded, his heart filled with confusion. Did these two martial masters come to trouble Qingmutang?

"Take us to Aoki Hall!"

Zhou Shaobing didn't refuse. Qingmutang was a giant, but a strong martial artist couldn't afford to offend him.

He asked his soldiers to leave first. Zhou Shaobing led the way and asked tentatively: "Do you two have a grudge against Qingmutang?"

Wei Fan shook his head, knowing that Zhou Shaobing was testing, and simply said directly: "No grudges, we are demon hunters. We suspect that there are demons hidden in Qingmu Hall, and we want to take a look!"

It was hard for them to tell the waiter before, but Zhou Shaobing was also from the Demon Suppression Division, so his identity had nothing to hide.

"There might be a demon in Aoki Hall?"

As soon as these words came out, Zhou Shaobing's expression changed slightly: "It turns out that the two adults are demon hunters. I have a humble position, Zhou Shaobing. I'd like to see you two adults."

"My surname is Wei, her surname is Ji..."

Wei Fan and Ji Qingyue shook their heads and let him continue to lead the way.

After walking for a while, a very large manor appeared in front of him. There was also a faint aura of demons here, but Wei Fan used his Zhanzhan Qi to discern demons and found nothing wrong.

Seeing this, Wei Fan simply released his mind and scanned the entire Qingmu Hall, but still found no problem.

Of course there might be something wrong, but he just couldn't find it in his mind.

As for the panel, it will not react to the things scanned by the mind. It will only react to the demons when the sight touches them personally.

Ji Qingyue shook her head. She didn't notice it either.

Wei Fan looked at Zhou Shaobing: "Has Qingmu Hall had any strange things happen recently?"

If he gathered the people of Qingmu Hall and scanned them one by one, he should be able to find out who has problems, but there are too many people, unless he asks Ningcheng's Demon Suppression Division to send troops to surround Qingmu Hall.

However, it is hard to say whether Qingmu Hall has problems now. It is not a good idea to ask the Demon Suppression Division to send troops.

Zhou Shaobing frowned and thought deeply for a while after hearing this, and said: "Strange things? I don't know if this counts. In the past, Qingmu Hall rarely competed with others for territory and only defended its own place.

But in recent months, they have often fought with other gangs, and many people have died.

Many people also say that Qingmu Hall is a force supported by the Ning family to plunder money and property. If there is a problem with Qingmu Hall, will it be in the Ning family?"

Ning family?

Wei Fan was puzzled.

Suddenly, they started a war with other gangs and killed many people. This is indeed very suspicious.

Some demons mixed in the human world. In order to avoid being discovered for eating people, they did not do it themselves, but controlled others to kill people, and then they ate the bodies secretly.

Zhou Shaobing explained: "You two adults are not locals, and may not even be Chu people. The Ning in our Ningcheng exists because of this Ning family. Even Ningzhou is called Ningzhou because of the Ning family.

Because the Ning family made great contributions to the founding of Chu, after the founding of the country, the Chu Taizu renamed this place Ningzhou."

Ji Qingyue nodded: "I remember this Ning family. It is said that because of a strange technique, it is called the demon refining family. The master once said that more than a thousand years ago, the Ning family was the first family in Chu, and even the royal family of Chu was not as powerful as the Ning family.

Not only in Chu, but also in the surrounding countries, the Ning family is a famous family.

But now, the Ning family has no Luo, although it is not a second- or third-rate family in Chu, it is not extremely powerful, and there is not even a martial arts master. "

Zhou Shaobing looked at Ji Qingyue in surprise, not knowing that she was actually a Chu person: "Master Ji is right. The Ning family used to be known as the king of Ningzhou. It is said that even the royal family must abide by the rules of the Ning family when they come to Ningzhou.

However, now, let alone the royal family, even some top sects can bully the Ning family. It has long lost its former glory and even needs to support gangs to make money. "

Wei Fan looked at Ji Qingyue: "What is the name of that magic?"

"I remember the commander said it was called the magic of human demons swallowing monsters"

While Ji Qingyue was still thinking, Zhou Shaobing said the name of the Ning family's magic.
