Chapter 1597 Red Rabbit
He Lingchuan continued: "There is a huge fish carcass by the Taoxi River, with dark red skin and white spots..."
Yang Chi exclaimed, his eyes widened: "Is your mouth really big?"
"Yes, it looks like there is more than enough space to fit more than a dozen people."
Yang Chi murmured: "How is this possible?"
"What kind of demon puppet is that?"
"Yes, it's the flip-skin blenny that my master personally modified. It's amphibious and can hide underground as long as the ground is moist." Yang Chi said anxiously, "It's very powerful, it appears and disappears at will, and it has eaten many people. How could it die!"
He simply couldn't imagine who could kill the giant fish lurking underground!
He Lingchuan guided at the right time: "Did your master use it to travel underground and assassinate many targets?"
Yang Chi said without hesitation: "Yes."
Zhao Song's men wrote furiously on the side and recorded this item as well.
When they are sent back to King Yao, they will be presented as evidence in court.
Zhao Song asked again: "Where did Cao Wendao and you come from?"
"Bejia, Tiangong."
Zhao Song thought he had misheard, and said in a stern voice: "What? Say it again! I warn you, don't talk nonsense!"
Bega, heaven, gods, anything involving any of these three will be a big trouble.
"It's true." Yang Chi lowered his head and said, "My master was once the lantern master of the Heavenly Palace. Later, because of his talent, he was assigned to develop demon puppets and made many achievements."
"Then why did you come to the Golden Plains?"
"Then I'm not sure."
He Lingchuan advised him softly: "You are not the only one who knows about this matter, why do you have to hide it for him? We can find out with some effort."
Zhao Song played the villain: "Cao Wendao can no longer take care of you. If you don't tell the truth, you will soon rot in the prison."
It was unknown which sentence touched Yang Chi, he swallowed his saliva and said, "I, I just heard about it. The eldest brother mentioned it after drinking once, that the master violated the heavenly law, so he was banished to the Shining Gold Plain."
"What heavenly law?"
"To blaspheme the gods." (blasphemy).
"How to say?"
"We have to use divine blood to refine demon puppets, and we can only use divine blood." There was a flash of lightning outside, and Yang Chi looked out the window uneasily, as if Cao Wendao was standing there staring at him, "The Heavenly Palace has strict regulations on the use of divine relics. But my master, my master secretly used the forbidden divine relics to refine demon puppets, and the matter was later exposed, so..."
He Lingchuan suddenly realized.
Dong Rui used divine blood and divine bones to refine demon puppets, which was considered as an act of blasphemy by the Heavenly Palace and the gods. The embarrassing thing was that the Heavenly Palace also formed its own demon puppet master team, and also used divine blood when doing research.
Therefore, the Heavenly Palace has issued strict regulations on the use of the relics of the gods, which stipulates that this is allowed and that is not allowed.
"Isn't it possible with divine bones?"
Yang Chi said firmly: "Of course not, absolutely not."
But Cao Wendao was a repeat offender. When he was in Beiga, he used divine bones to make demon puppets and was caught in the act.
Hey, if you do this under the nose of the gods, what good outcome will you get?
However, Cao Wendao did not give up. After arriving at the Shining Golden Plain, he repeated his old tricks and even went a step further by creating Ashmona. He did not learn his lesson at all and did not take the punishment from the Heavenly Palace seriously.
Are all demon puppet masters so stubborn?
"Oh, this guy confessed before that Cao Wendao personally assassinated the leader of the allied forces, Situ He. In addition, they were also responsible for the murder of Princess Ya."
The last sentence was the most important. Zhao Song cried out in amazement: "What!"
Princess Ya was the king's favorite little princess. Half a year ago, she was killed for no reason near the border, and many civilians were killed. The case was attributed to the three-tailed fox demon, so the king ordered General Chongwu to chase the fox demon.
But the prisoner now confessed that Princess Ya was killed by Cao Wendao?
As far as assassination targets are concerned, no matter how important He Xiao is, he is just a foreign businessman. How can his status be compared with Princess Ya? This is truly a shocking secret!
"Why did Cao Wendao want to kill Princess Ya?" Zhao Song stared at him closely. "Who paid for the murder?"
Yang Chi smiled bitterly: "That was a pure accident. The demon puppet developed by our master went out of control and rushed out to kill people. We, we didn't want to kill Princess Ya!"
"Out of control?" Zhao Song took a long breath, stood up and said to He Lingchuan, "Brother He, I have to take him to the palace now. I hope you understand."
The truths uncovered during the investigation were more and more shocking. Zhao Song could not handle them all by himself and had to report them immediately.
He Lingchuan nodded: "It's okay, Brother Zhao, please do as you please."
So Zhao Song selected another 300 men and escorted Yang Chi into the city and the palace overnight.
The scene was even more grand than the escort of He Lingchuan. After all, Yang Chi was the only remaining witness, and the other two disciples of Cao Wendao captured by Zhao Song tonight were both silenced.
……
Zhao Song entered the palace in a hurry, while He Lingchuan entered the courtyard leisurely.
His own yard is guarded inside and outside by Yangshan guards, and now a barrier has been set up to prevent prying eyes.
The lights were on in his living room, but the doors and windows were closed. Two guards were standing outside the door, and they opened it immediately when they saw him.
As soon as he walked in, He Lingchuan smelled a strong smell of medicine.
Dong Rui sat in the soft chair he usually sat in, with a duck down pillow behind him and his right shoulder bandaged tightly so he dared not put any force on it.
Guiyuan and Lingguang were sitting together peeling grapefruit. Seeing him come in, Lingguang looked up and said, "The right shoulder is comminuted and broken beyond repair. If it were someone else, the bone would be gone. I just performed a major operation on him, and it will take at least a month to fully heal."
It takes a hundred days for a broken bone to heal, even with magical medicine it can only speed up the process. To recover from some injuries, you just have to endure time.
It also treated the other wounds on Dong Rui's body.
He Lingchuan took two steps forward and found a small animal lying on the armrest of the chair. It was furry and round, with its ears erected. He couldn't help but blurt out:
"Red Rabbit?"
It looks like a red rabbit.
However, when the rabbit turned around, He Lingchuan saw that its face did not have a three-petal mouth, but instead looked more like a cat or a fox.
There is a small dark red and black bone plate in the middle of its forehead, with a pattern on it, which is a ferocious beast's head.
By the way, the tail is fluffy, like a fox. Previously, the tail was buried under its belly and was not noticeable.
Dong Rui stroked the little rabbit with his intact hand, with a loving look on his face: "Come, meet number sixty-six."
He Lingchuan looked at it for a while before saying, "I invested more than one million taels of silver, and you hatched a rabbit for me?"
These words seemed to irritate No. 66. Its hair stood up, its ears and tail stood up, and its blood-red eyes stared at He Lingchuan.
But it didn't look scary at all. At most, it changed from a small plush doll to a medium size.
“Rabbit?” Dong Rui’s face was filled with disdain. “Can a rabbit bite off your head in a second? This is a 犼, a red 犼!”
"..." He Lingchuan pointed at Chitu and could only utter two words, "Not like."
The Qiong is a famous demon beast in ancient times, with strong power and outstanding talent. Legend has it that the left protector under the command of the Black Dragon God is a golden-haired Qiong. The demons once ambushed it in Youlan Mountain, but it killed two big demons and more than ten small demons single-handedly.
It seems reasonable that He Jing went to the Panlong ruins to investigate the Dafang Pot and found that there was a 犼 among the child-eating beasts he brought with him.
But He Lingchuan thought that the little thing didn't look scary at all, but was suitable as a snack to go with wine.
The rabbit hopped forward, not happy with his pointing. Should he chew off his finger as a snack?
Dong Rui quickly held its neck and said, "We are one of us, we are one of us. This is not the enemy."
Still a little hot-tempered.
"It can't defeat Ashmona in this state, right?" How can it kill Cao Wenda's main demon puppet in this state? It's so cute!
Dong Rui pointed at Chitu's forehead and asked, "Do you see the pattern on its forehead?"
"uh-huh."
"It looks like that when it's fighting." Dong Rui pointed at the rabbit's body again, "It looks like this at other times."
"Show me the transformation?" Party A requested to inspect the goods.
"It can't change." Dong Rui refused. "It has exhausted its power and can only remain like this for the time being."
"..." He Lingchuan wanted to stretch out his finger again, but he found that the rabbit's eyes were not right, so he could only retract it, "You can't do it after fighting a battle?"
Don't make it a one-time product.
"Do you think Ashmona is easy to fight?" Dong Rui snorted, "If this little baby hadn't torn open its belly and rushed out, changing the balance of power on the battlefield, Cao Wendao wouldn't have thought of retreating."
Then he was murdered.
"Strictly speaking, it's not time for No. 66 to be born yet. I just pushed it into premature birth, so it's very weak now. It should go back to hibernation before dawn." Dong Rui said seriously, "It's still small and far from being fully grown. There's a lot of room for it to grow."
He Lingchuan's face twitched. Does this mean that he will have to continue to transfer money later?
However, he also understood that if this little guy had not come out to join the battle today, it would be a question whether Dong Rui could return safely.
"The arrival of the Emperor's Liquid will be of great help to it in a few days." The greatest significance of the Emperor's Liquid is not how much spiritual fluid an individual collects that night, but that after the world has experienced its baptism, the recovery of spiritual energy will be greatly accelerated, thus benefiting all living beings.
Such an environment is beneficial to No. 66 and all practitioners.
Dong Rui knew very well what He Lingchuan wanted to ask, and without waiting for him to ask, he exaggerated the fight that had just taken place.
How wise, decisive, smart and fearless he is...
The ghost ape didn't listen and peeled a whole pomelo slice for Lingguang, who then handed it to He Lingchuan.
He Lingchuan ate while listening.
Dong Rui was talking thirstily, so he called out to the ghost ape and pointed at his own mouth: "Ah——"
This is still not his demon puppet. The affinity is not enough!
Knowing that he couldn't peel a grapefruit with one hand now.
The ghost ape held the pomelo and ate it, his eyes rolling around, pretending not to hear.
Lingguang was kind enough to feed it to Dong Rui, who chewed the grapefruit while scolding the ghost ape: "You ungrateful thing, I'll put you back into the furnace and train you again next time!"
The ghost ape has thick skin and can't hear +1.
He Lingchuan continued, "You mean, Cao Wendao died because of the lack of affinity between him and the demon puppet?"
"I've said it a hundred times. The main matrix he uses to refine puppets is either bugs or mud. How can such things have any feelings for him? Once it backfires, Tsk tsk tsk!"
