its 110: half-way interception
(It's Valentine's Day. I wish lovers will always love each other and find what they love in their hearts as soon as possible!)

"Dozens of ghost soldiers have been lost this time. I'm afraid it will take about half a month to recover." Muyun nated beside him and waved his hand as a star: "Oh, isn't there more than 500 people? Don't be so stingy. The harvest this time is much greater than the loss.
Mu Yun glanced at him and said nothing more. He just commanded the ghost soldiers to dig the grave for Gu Gaosu.
Kaobucheng stood next to the old man's body and muttered to himself. Half a day later, he bent down and looked up in front of the old man's chest. As he turned over, he explained to the people next to him: "Gu Cai said that he actually has no secrets. Years of knowledge is in his mind, but he carries some forging soldiers. The elixir and wound medicine, he gave me all these.
"Don't worry, no one doubts that you suddenly gave birth to the consciousness of a grave robber." Shu Xiaoya comforted him, "turn it over, try to turn it over."
It's okay if she didn't say that. When she said that, it seemed that Kaobu City was really greedy for the old man's relics, so she decided to look for it herself, which made the little boy blush.
The old man had a small cloth bag in his arms, two small bottles, and a bag of powder wrapped in wax paper. Kaobu City did not explain their use to everyone, but directly stuffed them into his arms.
"Brother Xiaoxing, Gu Lao said that he has been traveling around and looking for some ancient forging classics. Half a year ago, he got some clues, as if there were some great classics buried in this ancient battlefield. Unfortunately, he came here for a few days and went crazy."
When Gu Gaosu's body was buried, Kaobucheng kowtowed a few heads in front of the grave, and then turned his head and said the above words to Cheng Xingxing.
"Gu Lao means, is it for us to help him discover it?" Cheng Xingxing's eyes were full of thieves, and Mu Yun next to him was disdainful. He turned around and looked like "Don't say you know me".
Kaobucheng nod: "Gu Lao said that forging was extremely prosperous about 600 years ago, but this prosperity only lasted for nearly a hundred years and ended in a hurry. According to some ancient books, it ended with a strong forging division. He swept the whole forging world and swept away the secret classics of various sects. Countless masters killed, but then he also disappeared inexplicably, so many classics and secrets disappeared together, and the forging skills were once bleak. Gu Lao has been traveling around the Yunsu mainland all his life and is committed to finding lost ancient classics, so his forging skills can reach the peak of Yunsu..."
"This kind of explanation doesn't need to be too detailed." Cheng Xingxing waved his hand hurriedly, "We don't understand this, and we don't plan to learn it. In short, you said let us help find it, and we'll just help."
Kaobu City stared at the star, and his face was full of regrets that he could not be taught.
Looking for a job, under the leadership of Kaobu City. Of course, Kaobu City does not have the ability to explore historical sites. It all depends on the soul of Gu Gaosu, who is secretly commanded in his tiger charm. The communication between the two can't be understood by others, and they don't think deeply. Anyway, just listen to the dispatch of Kaobu City.
The area of the ancient battlefield is not small, and the surrounding two miles is the scope of the battlefield. The cemetery is probably the edge of this ancient battlefield, so it is not to dig three feet.
Although there are more than 500 ghost soldiers helping to excavate, the battlefield with a radius of about one kilometer is full of big trees. It is completely impossible to have something in a short time.
Everyone simply lived in this cemetery. Anyway, there are woods nearby. There is no shortage of all kinds of wild vegetables and beasts. On the contrary, the diet is worry-free, but the accommodation conditions are more difficult.
In a blink of an eye, five days passed like this. During this period, Shenmiaomen sent someone to come here once because he saw that the door owner had not returned for a long time. After knowing that there was nothing to do, he went back.
Kaobu City ran back and forth throughout the ancient battlefield, guiding digging here and urging digging there, but there was always nothing. In the depths of the ground, some dead bones and weapons and armor were dug out, but they were all rusty. Chengxing reminded Kaobu City more than once that even if there were any ancient books, the paper thing should have been rotten long ago.
Three days later, Gu Lao in Kaobu City finally gave up.
Early in the morning, everyone who learned that Mr. Gu had given up his search cheered and finally began to walk back. It's not far from Longyin Town, only more than 20 miles away. Even if you go like this, it won't take long to return to the town.
Although it was thrilling this time, it finally completed the assessment, and there was such a huge harvest. Everyone was in a good mood, especially for becoming a star. It was a spring breeze, and I couldn't help but walk faster and walked ahead of everyone.
After walking about ten miles, in the distance, everyone saw several catchers standing next to the official road. As soon as they saw the crowd, the catchers immediately waved their hands, and one of them asked loudly, "Is it the master of the wonderful door?"
"Exact" Elder Wang rushed to answer loudly.
"It seems that the assessment has been completed?" The other catcher asked with a smile.
"For the blessing of the lord." Elder Wang replied with a smile.
Unconsciously, everyone has come to the front of the official road. Those arresters gathered around one after another, arching their hands to congratulate Chengxing. Chengxing smiled and saluted one by one, with a proud look on his face.
"The guard is in the pavilion on the mountain next to him." A catcher said enthusiastically, "We made a lot of wild animals on the mountain. The adults said that they would take these wild animals to the cemetery to find the master and eat and drink together in the mountain forest. Since the master came, we just went to the mountain to have a rest. How about we eat and drink here at noon?"
"Lord guard, are you coming out to hunt?" Cheng Xingxing looked up at the mountain and asked curiously.
"Yes." The catcher said, "I don't have any official business recently, and the adults are also idle. In addition, I want to see how it's going on with you. Master Cheng, is it really haunted over there?
"Hey hey, it's almost the same." Cheng Xing star grinned and looked like he didn't want to say more. The catcher was not a fool, and he didn't ask anymore. He just led the way forward and pointed to the mountain: "Master, why don't you give me some face?"
"Your Majesty's treat, of course you have to give face." Cheng Xingxing smiled, waved his hand, and followed the catcher up the mountain.
The mountain is not high, but it is not low. Everyone climbed with the catch for a long time before they came to the middle of the mountain on the other side. There is a big pavilion there. There are more than 20 people sitting there, and it will not be crowded. At this moment, the guard is sitting in the pavilion, drinking tea while watching the scenery at the foot of the mountain. Seeing Cheng Xingxing and others coming up, he hurriedly put down the teacup to welcome him.
"Is the master of the door back?" The guard asked in a little surprise, "I'm going to take a break and come to see you."
"Your Excellency, the assessment task you assigned has finally been successfully completed." Cheng Xingxing smiled and said, "There will be no ghosts in this cemetery anymore. Adults can rest assured."
"That's great!" The guard said in surprise, "Come on, sit down and tell me in detail."
Chengxing has long thought about it. This kind of thing that kills people and gets incredible power. Even if the core figure in the door knows it, it must not be passed on, otherwise it will be shocking. Not to mention the revenge of Tiandu Palace after learning about it, it is enough for the little god to drink a pot.
But you can't hide it all, because the traces of the war on the other side of the cemetery are still there. Many tombstones were burned by Gu Lao's flames, or they were inadvertently "cut" when he whipped the military account. The traces of this kind of battle can't be cleaned up. If they are deliberately concealed, it is easy to leave flaws.
I'm not afraid that the guard will guess how to guess, but considering that Gu Gaosu and De Panhu disappeared together, maybe Tiandu Palace will send people to look around. In case they find here and learn the flaws in their story, it may cause great disaster for them. Therefore, a thing that has been changed was said by Cheng Xingxing.
Generally speaking, Cheng Xingxing admitted the existence of Gu Gaosu and described him as a magical old man who would emit green and white flames, almost killing them. Thanks to the old man who was killed by a person who could also set fire, they came back with their lives.
The reason why it took so many days to return to the town was that the man said before he left and revealed that the old man came here to find a clue to find treasure, so under greed, Cheng Xingxing led the crowd to dig the earth for several days.
This statement basically belongs to the truth, but he lied about the life and death of Depanhu. In this way, if Tiandu Palace finds here and knows that they have fought with Gu Gaosu and found Gu Gaosu's body, he will only think that what the people of Shenmiaomen are saying is true. As for the disappearance of Depanhu, he doesn't care much about Tiandu Palace.
So in general, this is basically true, but there is only one story of lying, which can basically completely protect everyone from the suspicion of the Tiandu Palace. At the same time, it can also convince the guards.
When the governor heard Cheng Xingxing say this, he kept nodding and smiling. Cheng Xingxing felt as if he had known such a result. When he finished his words, the mayor said, "Of course, the old man is awesome. I had secretly sent someone to investigate, and I knew that he had great flame kung fu. If not, how would I have thought of borrowing his hand to get rid of you?
"Ah?" Cheng Xingxing was shocked by the amazing words of guarding.
"What?" You Liang's eyes were also wide open. Elder Wang stammed and asked, "Your Excellency, what do you...what do you mean?"
"Don't understand?" The guard sneered and stood up. More than a dozen catchers standing outside the pavilion immediately pulled out a steel knife and rushed in, blocking between him and the crowd.
"Let's put it this way." Zhen Shou looked at the star with hatred in his eyes. In fact, since I took office, it has been unpleasant for you. Longyin Town is originally far away from the emperor. I can do whatever I want to do, but there is a Nan Zhaoxia among the officials, and there is a wonderful door between you in the countryside, so that I can't do anything at all. And you, becoming a star, hate me even more when I mention it. You know, if it weren't for you, Chi You would have handed over all the wealth in the town to me!"
"So it's your collusion?" Mulan exclaimed.
"Yes." The guard sneered, "Otherwise, how can he find the city guard?" I deliberately took away all the catchers and left Nan Zhaoxia alone, in order to ask Chi You to help me get rid of him. Unexpectedly, you became a star in the middle of the way!"
"Bastard!" Cheng Xingxing snorted, "Do you think I'll be afraid of you?" With that, he mobilized his strength to open the door of the tiger charm.
However, Hu Fu did not respond to his call, and the power in it was completely no longer under his control.
This is... What's the situation? Cheng Xing was stunned.
