Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 213 The True Body
"Chen Jin, is that you?"

Yan Nanfei's voice was trembling. He was in quite bad condition. He only managed to hold on for a breath and didn't pass out.

Chen Jin took off his bamboo hat and took off the mask of the God, revealing his true face.

Yan Nanfei smiled and said, "It is indeed you."

He stretched out his hand and took off the old student mask on his face. He had sword-shaped eyebrows and bright eyes, and was extremely handsome. Isn't it Cui Qizhao?
Chen Jin seemed to have expected it and was not surprised.

Yan Nanfei asked, "Have you guessed it earlier?"

"Just some speculation."

"Sorry, I didn't mean to hide it, but I really didn't think about how to get along with you, so I used my identity as a descendant of the Cui family."

Chen Jin blinked: "So, is your identity true or false?"

Yan Nanfei replied: "It's true, but it's also false... But now, shouldn't you heal me first? I'm going to die."

As he said that, he lay down on his back and passed out simply.

Chen Jin: "..."

Without hesitation, he began to examine him carefully.

After this inspection, some strange features were immediately detected, which were very obvious.

It's hard for her.

Her situation is different from that of Qiu Bumaru. Qiu Bumaru was blessed by the exercises, and the yin and yang can change freely.

As for Yan Nanfei's problem, it seems that it is purely a technical solution, which is amazing.

Chen Jin calmed down and focused on examining and treating injuries.

People in the martial arts world always carry golden sore medicine and the like with them, which can be used externally to stop bleeding. Chen Jin also carries Jingyuan Pills and Bahe Shexiong Pills.

These are all good medicines for healing.

But Yan Nanfei's injuries were far more serious than imagined. The bloody injuries looked scary, but in fact they were not a problem. On the contrary, the inside of his body was a complete mess. The meridians were damaged, the internal organs were dim, and the true energy was out of control...

If it were described as a house, it would be that this house was on fire everywhere, and if not dealt with in time, it would be burned to ashes.

So, what kind of master did he encounter in the Forbidden City?
The fourth level of martial arts, Xingqi, the strength turns into true energy, steps into the innate world, can't be exposed inwardly, and can be released outwardly to protect the body. All kinds of miraculous things have surpassed the ordinary world.There are very few warriors in the world who can achieve this level.

But then I thought about it, there are also many masters in the big house, and they are not one-on-one duels based on the rules of the world.

No matter how powerful Yan Nanfei is, if he enters the Forbidden City, he will be surrounded and beaten once his whereabouts are exposed.

Moreover, Eunuch Zhu of the inner factory is also rumored to be a top figure in the fourth realm.

Therefore, the specific situation can only be understood after Yan Nanfei wakes up.

After about half an hour of fussing, I finally dealt with all the areas that could be dealt with.

The rest depends on Yan Nanfei's vitality, self-recovery, and long rest.

Under the light, looking at the neatly and beautifully bandaged chief rudder of the Tongwen Association, Chen Jin felt that he could debut as a doctor.

Fortunately, he had been prepared in advance, and there were all kinds of medicinal equipment in Hutian. Otherwise, he would not have been able to do this at all.

I brought a bucket of water, cleaned it, and then carefully cleaned up the scene without leaving any traces.

It's not a good place to stay for a long time, and you can't hurt innocent people carelessly.

But after leaving, where should we hide next?

This is a very crucial question.

The current situation outside is that the whole city is obviously under lockdown. If Chen Jin is the only one, he can definitely get out of the inner city, but it is impossible to take Yan Nanfei with him who is still seriously injured.

After thinking about it, Chen Jin decided to take Yan Nanfei back to the alley first.

That's Cui's property.

Since Yan Nanfei was acting under the identity of "Cui Qizhao", he should have made a plan in advance, and perhaps had some backup plans.

After making up his mind, Chen Jin put a mask on Yan Nanfei again, picked her up, and jumped out of the yard.Only choose remote places to walk, and while walking, pay close attention to the surrounding situation to see if there are any ambushes.

At this time, keen perception is crucial to avoid the waves of chasing soldiers who are searching everywhere.

The whole city was mobilized to arrest not only people from the inner factories, but also government officials, soldiers and horses patrolling the city, etc.

So many people together form a dragnet.

Chen Jin was holding Yan Nanfei in his arms as he was walking through the net hole. He had to be very cautious in order not to be discovered.

Once exposed, the consequences will be a chain reaction that will be difficult to deal with.

Therefore, he hugged Yan Nanfei tightly, their bodies pressed together as if they were one body.

In this case, casting the invisibility method will have a certain effect.

It was late at night, and the snow was falling harder and harder. It was like a blizzard, and the wind was howling.

The bad weather provided Chen Jin with some help in his escape.

boom!
When he landed in a familiar courtyard, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, so much so that he made a noise.

Swish!
Ma Shengshen's figure appeared first, holding the sickle tightly in his hand: "Shou Heng, what are you doing?"

Then Gu Leyou also flew out. With his sharp eyes, he saw the old student mask on the face of the person Chen Jin was holding, and he suddenly asked in surprise: "Scholar, is the one you rescued real or fake? "

Chen Jin: "..."

This guy was really arrogant sometimes. Fortunately, Yan Nanfei was in a coma. If she heard that he had become a "good", she might not be angry.

He immediately said: "The one I saved is definitely the rightful owner."

With that said, he swept into the room.

Gu Leyou quickly followed in, while Ma Shengshen stayed outside to keep watch.

Chen Jin put Yan Nanfei on the bed and covered him with a quilt.

Gu Leyou's expression was both excited and worried, and he couldn't help but ask: "Scholar, what is going on?"

Chen Jin roughly told what happened.

Gu Leyou couldn't help but sigh: "Scholar, you did a big thing that shook the world without making any noise. It's amazing."

Chen Jin said: "This is also a disaster that will cause the whole family to be ransacked and executed."

"Haha, we are not afraid of being single... By the way, scholar, have you ever lifted his mask to see who he really is?"

"Who the real person is is no longer important. What is important is, looking at this formation, tomorrow at the latest, the imperial court's inner factories will search here. How should we deal with it."

Gu Leyou said: "Aren't you taking the exam?"

Chen Jin said coldly: "Such a big thing has happened. Do you think you can stop the other party with a mere identity test?"

"That's true. This is tricky. Even if we dig a tunnel now, it's too late. How about just stuffing it under the bed?"

"Thank you for thinking it out."

Chen Jin said angrily.

A simple but clumsy hiding method carries a considerable risk of being exposed. Once discovered, it will be a life-and-death situation.

"Take me to Duanyun Temple."

It was Yan Nanfei who spoke, and she actually woke up.

This requires a lot of strong willpower.

"it is good."

Chen Jin didn't hesitate at all and picked her up again.Gu Leyou asked: "What do you need me to do?"

"Stay here and look after the house."

Chen Jin rushed out without looking back.

Gu Leyou touched his chin: "Duanyun Temple? Is it possible that the old lady who is difficult to deal with is from Tongwenhui? It must be. Unfortunately, I want to turn Duanyun Temple into Izumo Temple. They are Tongwenhui people." The stronghold of the meeting is really hidden. So, that Cui Qizhao seems to have a close relationship with the old lady crown, is there something fishy about it? "

Thinking of this, I shuddered all over: "The water here is really deep..."

Chen Jin flew out with Yan Nan in his arms and braved the wind and snow to the outside of the dilapidated Taoist temple. Seeing that the door was closed, he climbed over the wall and entered.

laugh!
There was a sharp piercing sound.

Chen Jin reacted very quickly and flew away.

Hiss!

There was a strange noise.

Chen Jin looked around, forgiving his courage, and couldn't help but gasp.

But when I saw snakes running out of nowhere in the small yard, there were dozens of them, densely packed.

Looking at their shapes, each of them is a poisonous snake, holding its head high and vomiting messages, as if ready to attack at any time.

"Auntie, it's me."

Yan Nanfei said.

"Hey, Azhao?"

Jian Youyun, wearing a gray Taoist robe, appeared in a hurry and rushed to him: "You, you broke out?"

He was so happy that his tone of voice changed.

Yan Nanfei forced a smile: "Mr. Chen saved me... Auntie, please stay outside. I have something to tell Mr. Chen."

"it is good."

Jian Youyun was quite straightforward. With a wave of his hand, he left with the swarms of poisonous snakes and soon disappeared.

It must have been hidden in the dark.

There are so many venomous snakes lurking. If the pursuers come and take a bite accidentally, it will be a violent death.

Chen Jin carried Yan Nanfei into the Taoist temple and saw that the furnishings inside were quite simple, with a altar, a statue of a god, and a futon placed in front of it.

Put Yan Nanfei on the futon and lean against the altar.

"Take off the mask for me."

Chen Jin did as he was told, looking at that handsome but pale face with an inexplicable feeling of pity.

Yan Nanfei took a breath and began to say, "My real name is Zhu Qi. I am Princess Yanshan of the former dynasty. I am the seventh in the family."

This sentence contains a lot of information, and all the context is explained clearly at once.

"I studied martial arts in the deep palace since I was a child, and I was relatively successful. Later, when Wucheng rebelled and my father was killed, I escaped from the capital by chance. I contacted a group of generals and scribes who were still loyal to my father and established the Tongwenhui. .”

At her age, being able to advance to the fourth level of martial arts is more than just "a little accomplished"?
It is simply unparalleled in the world.

In addition to the unparalleled resource support of the royal family, this is also inseparable from personal talent and hard work.

Only by combining the two can such achievements be achieved.

"Tong Wen met with great disgrace and was hunted down by the court everywhere, so I took on another identity, Cui Qizhao, a descendant of the Cui family, and used this identity to study and take merit tests."

There is no doubt that Shangzhou Cui's position is on Jingwen's side.

It is not surprising that the Hong family of Liangzhou and the Wang family of Jiangzhou supported the new emperor, so it would be no problem for other clans to support Jingwen.

Of course, given the current situation, this kind of support is underground in nature.

The general trend of the world, whether it is temple disputes or local situations, are often intertwined and entangled.

It is impossible to be monolithic.

Just like Jianghu, wherever there are people, there will be struggles.

Chen Jin couldn't help but ask: "Listen to what you mean, did you originally plan to take part in the palace examination after being named on the gold list, and then launch an attack in the Jinluan Palace?"

"There is indeed such a plan, but it's a pity that I don't know if the news was leaked or for other reasons. The imperial examination was canceled this year, and all those who passed the examination will be issued with a confession document by the Ministry of Personnel and released as officials. I have to find another way."

"So you took the radical risk of entering the palace to assassinate me? Have you ever thought that what happened tonight was a trap, just waiting for you to deliver it to your door."

Yan Nanfei was silent for a while: "I have thought about it, but I still have to do it."

"Why? Isn't this asking for death?"

Chen Jin was quite puzzled.

"Firstly, the situation of the literary association is not optimistic. The casualties are serious. If it continues like this, it will only decline more and more, and it will no longer be able to raise any fighting spirit and morale. Secondly, I also want to take this opportunity to take a gamble. Even if I have to risk everything, I won’t hesitate. After all, apart from this life, there is nothing to be afraid of losing.”

Her tone was full of determination to fight until the end of the battle, and she even had the will to die.

Chen Jin began to understand her decision and sighed: "Then who did you encounter in the Forbidden City?"

"How do you know I can break into the Forbidden City?"

"You have great martial arts skills and are a member of the royal family. You are familiar with the family and the roads. It will not be difficult to enter the Forbidden City."

Yan Nanfei said: "That's true. I originally wanted to sneak into the palace directly, but the defenses in the Forbidden City were too tight. I was soon discovered and surrounded by several old eunuchs, and fell into a hard fight."

"Are these old eunuchs very powerful?"

"During the Qian Dynasty, the most powerful guards around each emperor were eunuchs. I think I also learned my martial arts from these eunuchs."

Chen Jin said "Oh", thinking that this could be regarded as a royal secret.

"When my whereabouts were exposed, I knew I couldn't do anything, so I wanted to kill him. At this time, I met Eunuch Zhu."

"Mr. Neichang?"

"Among all the eunuchs in the inner palace now, only one can be named Zhu."

Chen Jin asked again: "How strong is he?"

Hearing this, an extremely complicated meaning suddenly appeared in Yan Nanfei's eyes: "I can't describe his strength. I even feel that he is not a human being."

"not human?"

Chen Jin was startled: "You mean to say that the strength and means he has shown have far exceeded what ordinary people can understand?"

"Almost...the reason why I was able to escape from the Forbidden City and escape to the Imperial City Wall was also due to luck, because Eunuch Zhu did not chase me out personally."

After all, she is a figure in the fourth realm of martial arts. If she concentrates on escaping, she can always find some opportunities.

Chen Jin said: "Perhaps Eunuch Zhu is afraid of falling into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain, so he wants to stay in the Forbidden City and will not leave easily."

"Maybe; or maybe he thinks that I can't escape and will die... If you didn't come to save me, then I would definitely be dead. By the way, how did you happen to appear there?"

"It's not just right, it's because I've been waiting there."

Yan Nanfei's bright eyes immediately lit up: "You said, where are you waiting? Just to wait for me to come out?"

"I can't enter the imperial city, so I have to wait for you to come out."

"But what if I can't get out, but what if I don't get out from there?"

Chen Jin smiled: "I am a monk. I know magic and can also tell fortunes."

Yan Nanfei didn't expect such an answer, and his eyes suddenly widened.
