Dafeng's Night Squad

Chapter 1538: The ugliest sister-in-law (1)

“Clang clang clang …”

In the elixir room on the seventh floor of the Directorate of Celestials, Song Qing rolled up his sleeves. He held a purple-gold hammer and a pair of pincers of the same color. He stood in front of the anvil and hammered steel.

His white clothes were stained with black dust, and his forehead was dripping with sweat. Coupled with the dark circles under his eyes, he looked like he would die at any time.

After forging out the impurities, Song Qing took out a dark gold nail, aimed it at the iron embryo, and hit the head of the nail with a big hammer.

With an ear-piercing sound, the dark golden nail pierced through the iron.

“There’s no way to compare, there’s no way to compare at all …”

Song Qing shook his head regretfully,’what material is the magic sealing nail made of? Is there really such a metal in the world?”

The demon sealing nail in his hand was brought back by sun Xuanji. He was entrusted by the alchemy genius Xu ningyan to give the demon sealing nail to Song Qing.

Young master Xu was indeed a genius who was willing to sacrifice everything for the art of gold cultivation. He was Song Qing’s confidant and had offered such an important divine artifact to the Directorate of Celestials for research.

There was only one requirement for young master Xu to contribute the magical sealing nail, and that was for the alchemists to replicate it.

The gold cultivators were moved.

Not only did young master Xu contribute the divine weapon, but he also entrusted them with important tasks.

At this time, a white-robed sorcerer quickly walked into the pill room and shouted, ”

“Senior brother song, teacher Jian Zheng wants you to bring this box to the bottom floor and give it to Senior Sister Zhong.”

Teacher Jian Zheng … Song Qing was a little puzzled as he took the wooden box and asked, ”

“What is it?”

“Teacher Jian Zheng said that only senior martial sister Zhong can open it,” the white-robed sorcerer shook his head.

Song Qing had always been an opinionated (rebellious) disciple. When he heard this, he directly moved to open the box, but he failed.

“Alright!”

Song Qing nodded and left the elixir room with the wooden box that was half a foot wide and one foot long. He went up the stairs to the lobby on the first floor and entered the underground through the iron door at the back of the hall.

The sound of footsteps echoed in the quiet underground. The oil lamps lit up everything, dyeing everything with a warm and gentle orange color.

Song Qing sniffed the faint stale smell in the air. Most of the white-robed sorcerers of the Directorate of Celestials were out, either in the Army or traveling to rescue people. They had less time to open the door for Zhong Li.

After passing through the dark and long corridor, Song Qing stopped at the door of a forbidden room and looked inside through the transom on the door.

Zhong Li sat cross-legged in the corner, silent.

“Junior martial sister Zhong!”

Song Qing pushed the door open and walked in front of her. He sat down cross-legged and said, “”Teacher Jian Zheng asked me to bring this to you.”

Zhong Li opened her eyes and took the wooden box. The moment she took it, the lock popped open automatically.

He opened the box and saw a wooden hammer that was half an arm’s length lying in the yellow silk box.

The wooden hammer was light brown in color, and its handle glowed with oil. The hammerhead and handle were engraved with fine array patterns.

Zhong Li was stunned for a moment and looked up at Song Qing.

Song Qing happened to lower his head. The senior brother and Junior Brother looked at each other and said in unison, ”

“Chaos life hammer!”

Oh? ” Song Qing was enlightened. no wonder teacher Jian Zheng said that you should be the one to open the box. Other than you, no one else can use this broken thing.

According to teacher Jian Zheng, the life-changing hammer was something he made when he was young.

Using this hammer to hit someone’s head can change their fate, but the fate can not be controlled. The fate of the person holding the hammer and the person being hit will be changed together.

People were divided into three, six, and nine grades. Everyone in their profession had their own fate.

If one’s fate was changed, they would be punished by the heavens and their lifespan would be cut in half.

In other words, this broken hammer would not only cause unpredictable changes to a person’s life Providence, but it would also reduce one’s lifespan by half at the start.

However, Zhong Li was an exception because her current life Providence belonged to the ‘divine retribution’. Even the life-twisting hammer couldn’t change such a terrible life Providence, so she could avoid the side effects.

“Why did teacher Jian Zheng give this to you?”

Song Qing was confused,’although you are a prophet now, you will have to face all kinds of disasters, and even the life-changing hammer can’t do anything. However, if you were to use it to change someone else’s fate, your tribulation would be even more severe.”

Zhong Li shook her head and put away the hammer.

“AI, in the days that Caiwei is not in the Directorate of Celestials, I feel that the entire stargazing tower is quiet. Junior martial sister Zhong, senior martial brother still has to go back and forge, so I’ll take my leave first.” Song Qing stood up, pushed the door open, and left.

………….

Far away in the ocean.

With Jade-like white scales, a bull’s nose, crocodile’s lips, and a lion’s mane, the White Emperor stomped on the water.

The waves were boundless, and the sky was the only thing in sight.

The White Emperor found his destination on the ocean.

It lowered its head and stared at the sea under its hooves. Its blue eyes lit up with a deep, dark light, like a vortex.

A Whirlpool appeared on the surface of the sea and quickly expanded to a huge Whirlpool with a diameter of tens of meters. White foam churned.

The White Emperor plunged into the vortex. After a while, he rushed out of the vortex with a curved spear that looked like bone, stone, gold, and Jade in his mouth.

It galloped like a horse and disappeared into the sky.

The vortex slowly calmed down, and the ocean returned to its original state.

………….

Dongling city.

The Barbican was built on top of the city wall, and Xu Pingfeng stood on top of it. His white clothes fluttered in the wind, and he looked like a banished immortal.

He was holding a pot of wine in his hand and looking north.

…………

In the military camp of the cloud Prefecture.

The carts transporting Zi Zhong were moving in and out of the camp. The soldiers at the bottom of the ranks repeated their duties of guarding and patrolling, waiting to set off at any time.

Compared to the Yunzhou Army, which was fighting in three battlefields, the 30000 middle troops were the most complete. The elites had been recuperating and waiting for their turn.

For a month, there were almost no soldiers from the camp.

At this time, as the winter gradually came to an end, the soldiers at the bottom were still fine as their knowledge was limited, but the middle and high ranking generals were starting to get restless.

They realized that with the approach of spring, the advantages and disadvantages of their own side and Da Feng would begin to reverse step by step.

As a result, more and more people were leaving the camp to fight, and their voices were getting louder and louder.

Today, more than a dozen middle and high-ranking generals knelt outside the commander’s tent and “threatened” Qi Guangbo to send out his troops.

One of them was Zhuo Haoran, who had been demoted from a field officer of the left Corps to a Deputy Field Officer of the charging Battalion.

“General, we can’t delay any longer. If we don’t take down Qingzhou this winter, it will be as difficult as ascending to the sky for our Army to reach the capital after the spring Festival.”

Zhuo Haoran, whose left eye was grayish-white and could not see anything, roared, ”

“This general only wishes to die, but great general, please let this general die on the battlefield. Great general, please send out your troops.”

The surrounding generals agreed with him. Even though they looked down on Zhuo Haoran, who had lost, they were all on the same side.

After a while, just when the generals thought they had returned without any results, the tent was opened.

Qi Guangbo was dressed in a military uniform, one hand on the hilt of his sword. His eyes were calm, and his face was indifferent. He glanced at the generals, and not only did he not get angry, he laughed and said, ”

“To be able to endure until now, you must have some patience.”

The one-eyed Zhuo Haoran said in shock, ”

“Great general?”

Qi Guangbo said in a deep voice, ”

“Zhuo Haoran, you’ve lost six thousand elites in Songshan. I value talent, so I’ll spare your life. I’m asking you now, do you want to atone for your crimes?”

Zhuo Haoran said loudly, ”

“If I can avenge my humiliation, I can die without regrets.”

Qi Guangbo threw out a command letter with the commander’s seal and said lightly, ”

“Lead 8000 elites of the left Corps to Songshan County to assist the Dragon elephant, white rhinoceros, and formation-breaking troops.”

Zhuo Haoran was ecstatic.

“This general acknowledges the order!”

Qi Guangbo no longer looked at him and turned to a general on the right, ”

“Wen Xuan, lead the 600 artillery battalions and 3000 infantry to support the black armor and green python armies of Dongling. At the same time, bring this General’s handwritten letter to Ji Xuan.”

He also threw out a command letter with the commander’s seal.

“Zhao Bing, take three thousand light cavalry to cut off the supply line of Songshan County. You must travel day and night.”

“………..”

As the orders were issued, half of the generals outside the tent were sent away. Qi Guangbo swept his gaze over the remaining people and said, ”

“Break the camp and follow me to swallow Wan County.”

………..

Songshan County.

From the Barbican on the top of the city wall, Miao you Fang’s angry voice came, ”

“No regrets, Mose. I gave you go, which only scholars in the Central Plains can learn, and this is how you repay me?

“Hmph, barbarians are barbarians,”

Then Mose’s voice came, ”

“Is this the game that’s very popular among the people of the Central Plains? It’s not that difficult. Could it be that I’m the legendary scholar?”

Miao Youfang smiled awkwardly and said, ”

“What do you know? this is called the great Dao being simple. The simpler something was, the more profound the knowledge.

“Look, I can place these five pieces horizontally, vertically, or slanted. They could also be placed on both sides and then in the middle. The game is ever-changing and the steps are unpredictable.”

Mose, who had already put on his light armor, scratched his head.

“Although what you said makes sense, I still think it’s very simple. I’m really a scholar. When the war is over, I’ll stay in your Central Plains and take the top scholar’s examination before going back. My father will be so happy.”

“What are you guys talking about?” Xu cijiu, who was nibbling on his cornbread, had just finished inspecting the city’s defensive armaments and stepped through the gate of wengcheng when he heard these words.

Miao Youfang said, while guarding against mo sang’s sneaky move, ”

“Let’s play Go. Go is the way of a gentleman.”

Xu Erlang thought to himself, ” this uncouth warrior actually knows how to play chess? ” Looking closely, the black and white chess pieces were connected in a line of one, two, and three. The longest was four pieces. Regardless of whether it was white or black, it would be cut off after four pieces were connected.

“You, you call this go?”

Xu Erlang looked at him with a strange expression.

“Isn’t it?” Miao Youfang asked in return. Without waiting for Xu Erlang to speak, he snorted proudly, ”

“Don’t think that playing chess is a privilege for you scholars. It’s actually not that difficult. With my intelligence and wisdom, I figured out the trick in a cup of tea’s time.

“I didn’t know how to play chess before because I was scared by you scholars.”

Mose chimed in, ”

“I also think it’s simple. Lord Xu, do you think I can be like you and become the top scorer? Our southern border hasn’t had a top scholar yet.”

I think you’ve changed your standard of Central Plains Chinese … Xu niannian chewed on his cornbread.

“Brother Miao, who taught you how to play Go?”

Miao Youfang’s pieces flew as he replied, ”

“Your sister-in-law.”

“Which one?” Xu Xinian was stunned.

Which one? Miao Youfang was also stunned. He thought carefully and said, ”

“The ugliest one.”

Xu niannian tried to recall, but he couldn’t guess who he was referring to.

“Just tell me your name.”

“Mu nanzhi.”

Who was mu nanzhi? forget it, if you have the chance to see her in the future, remember to tell her that Miao Youfang said she was ugly … Xu niannian secretly noted it down, then cupped his hands at his two talented comrades and went to the side to read a military book.

A scholar’s mind was smooth and slick, and it was a basic operation.
