Chapter 503: The Du Family Destroyed, Fighting Overnight

"The Donghu Laozu has passed away!"

The shouts were continuous.

There was sadness, but more of it was panic.

Outside the gate, Zhao Xianda and the Lushan Sect elders looked at each other in dismay.

"Break the gate!"

At Zhao Xianda's order, several men from the Commandant's Office immediately picked up thick logs, exerting their hidden strength simultaneously, and charged straight out.

At the same time, other figures drew their blades with a clatter, accelerated in two or three steps, borrowed force, and leaped onto the wall.

"Alright!"

@Read*! /

"It's the Head-Swapping Evil Art!"

The two disciples were originally a bit confused, but following the boat captain's gaze, they immediately swallowed their saliva.

The boat captain came to the deck, picked up the silver, his pupils shrank, and he said in a deep voice: "No one is allowed to speak of this guest's business; let it all rot in your stomachs!"

A fast boat was sailing against the wind.

The Lushan Sect people naturally followed in as well.

Although Sha Lifei's temperament had greatly increased, that was after all the "Corpse Forest," and he hadn't practiced the Tantric sect's techniques, so his condition was getting worse and worse.

"Also, who is not here now?"

Soon, they made a discovery.

Luzhou dock was too prosperous; most of the Du family remnants had already fled, and no one knew where they had gone.

"Release the hawks and falcons, search the nearby mountain paths!"

Elder Wang's eyelids twitched, and he said helplessly: "This old ghost is a Yin criminal; it seems someone has been eyeing him for a long time, taking advantage of our distraction to snatch the first prize."

"Sir, we have arrived…"

"I think there's no way to stay in the Divine Land in the future; it's better to go to the Nanyang, to fight for a way to live."

The old boatman had just come out when he discovered that the people on the deck had disappeared.

Zhao Xianda also hurried in at this moment, and seeing this, he let out a sigh of relief.

"That's right, I heard from those who went to sea that there is a flying-head art in the Nanyang; it must be those who left the Central Plains back then…"

Zhao Xianda walked with long strides, pushed aside the foolish servant blocking the front, and led his men straight into the back hall.

According to common sense, someone who should have died of old age long ago but lived until now was clearly abnormal; in the folk, it could be called a monster.

Ghost Sect followers were undoubtedly the best targets.

The Lushan Sect people examined the corpses and soon reached a conclusion.

After another hour or so, the surrounding mountains began to tower.

"Go to the dock, chase!"

…………

Only two large ingots of silver were placed on the deck.

At the order, both sides mobilized a large number of people.

The young boatman looked at the pitch-black river channel around him, couldn't help but feel his heart hair-raising, and couldn't help but say: "Third Uncle, are… are we not encountering something unclean?"

Standing on the deck was precisely Li Yan.

"Back… back to the official, this is Jian Sanye's residence."

"Stupid, what are you reporting? Can you afford to provoke that fierce god, or is the Lushan Sect easy to provoke? Going back means only death!"

The remaining people panicked and threw away their weapons one after another.

He saw Sha Lifei lying on a bamboo bed, eyes tightly closed, teeth clenched, fists gripped tightly, and he kept muttering in his mouth:

The Lushan Sect was famous, but to gain a foothold in this part of Sichuan, one had to have real prestige and couldn't offend people too much.

"This was soul-hooked by a living Yin-messenger!"

This could also be considered a tactic of the Commandant's Office.

He saw that on his chest and abdomen, there were surprisingly wounds, as if frostbitten, still remaining with ice frost, in the shape of chains.

He thought that after Zuo Shouquan's demonic Qi was taken away, these Du family people as ghost-servants would also not escape death.

"Just go to the Nanyang!"

He was old beyond recognition, skin and bones, disheveled white hair, curved nails, skin charred and shrunken.

Everyone traveled through and came to the largest courtyard in the back residence of the Du family.

The boatman was greatly encouraged upon hearing this.

What was even stranger was that the other party's head had separated from the body, the cut was neat, a cold Yin Qi lingered and did not dissipate, and the skin was also somewhat different.

The Flying-Head Barbarians back then should also have been in this situation.

Like wolves and tigers, the members of the Commandant's Office swarmed in, directly beheading the few who resisted, and shouting loudly.

Although they had never met, they knew Li Yan's great name.

However, when they chased to the dock, looking at the ships coming and going on the river, they could only return helplessly.

"Let me think… where is this boat going?"

"Went out to handle business a while ago, and disappeared."

Figures whistled past in the wind, rolling up the accumulated snow on the ground; if looked at from a high place, it looked exactly like a snow dragon, shuttling along the wild wilderness.

He saw a broken boat lying in the river, the water floating with corpses, either cut in two by a blade or with large holes in their bodies.

Luzhou had two river channels to the north; one was the Tuojiang, which could go to Zigong and Neijiang, relatively spacious.

Li Yan knew that he had been discovered by Lu San, so he followed the sound of the hawk and falcon, heading toward a high mountain in the southeast.

"It's people from the Sichuan Chamber of Commerce; I tampered with them. They were originally going to Jin Ling, then to Lingnan to go to sea and head to the Nanyang."

Here were all Hui-style buildings, combined with the style of the Shu region, white walls and black tiles, surrounded by bamboo forests, very quiet.

Because the Gang-Sha Qi was intense, the armor horse even began to heat up.

The Commandant's Office captured people for interrogation.

Chirp! In the night sky, a familiar hawk cry came.

After asking clearly, the Lushan Sect elder hurriedly pursued, "Everyone think, who did this old ghost usually get close to?"

With this object, one could summon False False Yin Si troops.

With this evidence, the Du family could be considered completely finished.

"Report!"

"What's the situation now?"

But this Du family ancestor still lived until now.

And this Du family Jian Sanye had a bad habit; the women he brought into the mansion basically disappeared very quickly.

Zhao Xianda was thoughtful.

After all, Emei and Qingcheng were the real high mountains.

Originally they were quite confident, but hearing the news of the Donghu Laozu passing away, they were immediately in a state of panic.

At that time, attacking the Dragon King Temple in Chongqing Prefecture, although the Commandant's Office covered it up, he was ordered to spy on the side, inquiring about intelligence…

Inside the secret room of the boat cabin, the atmosphere was oppressive.

So, they organized a group of people to guard.

Li Yan didn't talk nonsense either, bowed solemnly, then walked into the grass hall with long strides, and immediately frowned.

Unfortunately, the Du family ancestor was too shrewd, knowing the general trend was gone, to preserve the fire, he let at least two or three batches of people leave.

Li Yan turned his head to look at Luzhou City, his eyes indifferent.

It was precisely Lu San who came to meet him.

Thinking of this, Li Yan gripped the hook-warrant in his bosom.

Zhao Xianda was also too lazy to pay attention to them, directly taking the Lushan Sect people to the main hall, looking at a corpse on the ground.

"There's a problem here!"

At this moment, they were all silent as cicadas, disheveled, tied up and kneeling on the ground, their eyes filled with panic.

The Du family after all had deep roots in the Shu region and also had connections with some officials and princes of the Shu Prince's Mansion.

He destroyed the physical body of the evil god Zuo Shouquan in Stone Dragon Village and left immediately; who knew that halfway, he encountered a Du family descendant.

The one he called was precisely an elder sent by the Lushan Sect this time.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xianda opened his mouth again: "Elder Wang, there are some things here, I want you to see."

Attacking from both sides could make the defenders unable to attend to one thing while losing another.

"Fourth Brother, this won't work, that won't work, you say where can we go? Could it be that we will always shrink like mice in the future?"

In the place with many people, the snow had already melted. "Elder Wang, what is this…"

Slap! A heavy slap sound rang out.

"Where is he?"

He took a boat north, day and night without stopping, after two nights and one day of sailing, finally arrived near Dazu when night fell.

The Lushan Sect Elder Wang investigated for a while, shook his head and said: "He is an expert, not only a living Yin-messenger but also skilled in using thunder techniques, and his martial arts are also astonishing; he should be an old senior of the Mystic Sect."

The Yu family father and son were also not sleeping, guarding outside, and seeing this, they hurriedly welcomed them.

"Don't even think about it, the Yang family is also at the end of their rope, won't live for many days; without the Du family's foundation, we are just scapegoats if we go."

He smiled and nodded: "That's right, there is still some urgent business in Dazu, please hurry, the boat fare is doubled."

Li Yan almost exerted the armor horse to the limit.

The Du family mansion was truly astonishing, occupying a small half of Luzhou City; although it exceeded the rules, it used the name of a wine cellar to connect several areas.

Whoosh~ A wild wind whistled, and figures flickered.

"Damn it, why don't we go back and take revenge…"

Dozens of miles away, on the river channel.

This old ghost was indeed a Yin criminal.

They all had gloomy faces, their eyes filled with murderous intent, and they all operated their supernatural powers, wandering around the Du mansion.

They were all people on the surface; to tell the truth, they still didn't know what was going on.

"Third, you've worked hard!"

"Old senior?"

But thinking about it, it was also true; the evil god Zuo Shouquan was suppressed on Mount Luo Feng and still needed these people to perform licentious sacrifices to obtain the power to escape, so naturally, he wouldn't let them cut off their roots.

"This must be Young Hero Li…"

Just as Li Yan was rushing to Dazu, a huge cargo ship was also sailing toward Ezhou.

"Many thanks to the two for your help."

In his mind, what appeared was another figure.

However, they discovered that there was no need at all.

The Lushan Sect elder frowned, "I have heard of this technique; it was popular during the Tang Dynasty and could borrow life to extend longevity, but there were many hidden dangers, seemingly related to the Flying-Head Barbarian; I didn't expect it to appear again today."

Even the boat body was almost blown into two halves, and there were charred marks like tree branches. "What a powerful thunder technique!"

It could be considered having another trump card…

Seeing this, Li Yan was taken aback.

However, Li Yan was still a bit worried about that "Corpse Forest," so even if it meant taking a detour, he had to get a Gang-Order first to deal with unexpected situations.

………

"Whoever moves dies!"

Arriving at the hillside, a figure also leaped over.

That was an old man wearing gorgeous clothes.

And the Lushan Sect sorcerers searched carefully, finally finding a secret passage near the rockery of the mansion.

The candlelight was dim, and several figures were all silent.

But he didn't expect that it would instead unlock their shackles.

He knocked out two batches, but another batch had already fled along the Yangtze River, and no one knew where they had gone.

The Du family people were arrogant and domineering; even after discovering they were surrounded by the Commandant's Office, they still believed the Donghu Laozu could invite someone to save the situation.

Saying this, he suddenly thought of something, turned his head to those Du family people, and shouted sharply: "What else do you know?"

The Du family people were not few, but once the Donghu Laozu died, it was like a tree falling and the monkeys scattering, completely losing their momentum, and they were quickly controlled by the Commandant's Office.

After listening to the Du family's confession, Zhao Xianda and Elder Wang looked at each other.

The servants trembled upon seeing this.

Just at this moment, hawks and falcons flew and soared in the sky.

Under the two ingots of silver, the wooden board appeared with charred indentations, fitting perfectly with the silver, clearly pressed in by someone…

After discovering this, he took a fast boat to Luzhou overnight, taking advantage of the siege by the Commandant's Office and the Lushan Sect, used escape techniques to sneak into the Du family, and beat the Du family ancestor into the False False Yin Si.

The Lushan Sect people didn't talk nonsense either, leaving with Zhao Xianda.

The other was the Laixi River, with a narrow river channel, heading northeast, which could go straight to the vicinity of Dazu.

"Dreaming again, shouting and killing…"

This person was the Du family's contact in Neijiang; because the Du family had changes, he came to Stone Dragon Village to notify, and he was a Ghost Sect follower.

Must hold the ceremony as soon as possible.

Everyone came to a large hall, only to see that many gorgeously dressed men and women were gathered here, old and young, all the top level of the Du family.

"Go and see!"

"Who lives here?"

The Du family had huge power, raising countless servants and guards, from the Shu Prince's Mansion to various government offices in the Shu region, they could all speak.

Zhao Xianda also tore open the Du family ancestor's clothes.

Coming to Luzhou this time, the biggest harvest was this.

"Okay, let me see."

Everyone hurriedly boarded the boat, and in less than half an incense stick of time, they arrived at the Tuojiang estuary, in a remote waterway.

Li Yan directly pulled off the armor horse, didn't talk nonsense either, directly gave Lu San a big hug, and they patted each other on the back.

They broke directly into a remote residence, and the Commandant's Office people also moved upon hearing the wind, following closely behind.

The Du family people hurriedly knelt and shouted injustice.

"Just received news, the Donghu Laozu has gone."

The conspiracy of the Du family remnants was naturally unknown to Li Yan.

But in this wilderness, the ground was still snow-white.

These Du family servants naturally didn't dare to ask more.

Although the boatman was old, he was an expert; while adjusting the sails, he said: "Sir, is the business finished?"

Du family Jian Sanye had a hobby for women; everyone in the Du family knew it.

The families of the women who came looking later were either sealed by silver or inexplicably encountered mountain bandits; in short, it was suppressed.

This sudden salt-grain snow in the Shu region, although not small in scale, only lasted for two days before it stopped.

After opening it, the inside was filled with the stench of corpses, all women.

When disaster was imminent, these people who usually called the wind and rain would not be better off than ordinary people.

Looking at it, it was about the same as an old zombie.

"What nonsense are you talking about!"

Near Neijiang, he received another hawk and falcon message.

Commandant's Office scouts immediately came to report.

Heaven is high and the emperor is far away; they couldn't leave hidden dangers when doing things.

To tell the truth, they were just thinking of coming to establish prestige.

"I heard those Ghost Sect people are helping the Yang family in the southwest…"

Boom! While those Commandant's Office men jumped onto the wall, the heavy black-bottomed copper-inlaid wooden door was directly smashed open.

Inside the hook-warrant, there was finally another Gang-Order.

"It's evil art, used as a furnace tripod!"

The two chatted while walking, soon arriving at the bamboo forest cottage.

"Injustice!"

"Get out, all get out!"

"Move aside!"

"Two days ago, Third Uncle took people away, just now the Donghu Laozu arranged for some people to leave, then suddenly screamed for help, and the whole hall became pitch black. When we entered, it had become like this…"

"Report to my lord, there is a discovery in the river channel near the Tuojiang!"

"Let Grandpa chop you all!"

Li Yan didn't say a word, stepped forward to hold Sha Lifei's hand, pinched the magic seal, and exerted supernatural powers to investigate.

Unfortunately, there was no abnormality in Sha Lifei's body.

Instead, the jade tablet given by the Dragon Lady trembled slightly again……
