Chapter 361
Xie Zhaozhao was speechless for a moment, looked at it for a long time, and then asked: "Can it be used?"

"can."

Lu Jingrong stepped forward and opened the giant's fingers: "You can make a blood contract, so that this person will only listen to your orders. If you ask him to go east, he will never go west."

"You ask him to kneel and he will never stand."

Xie Zhaozhao frowned slightly, pondered for a moment and then asked: "Then is he alive or... dead? Is he conscious?"

"No."

Lu Jingrong shook his head and said, "He had no consciousness when he was put into the armor. To be precise, he was already dead when he was fed medicine to develop this ghostly virtue."

"This man was not successful as a soldier."

Lu Jingrong said meaningfully: "I made some repairs, and it's barely finished. I don't know how long it will last...but one or two years will do."

"That means he will be completely dead in a year or two, and he won't be like this now?"

"Probably."

Lu Jingrong thought for a while and said, "I'm not sure what the state will be like then. Maybe it can last longer. If you want to use him, I can help you make a blood contract."

Xie Zhaozhao pondered for a moment and did not answer the question. He just asked: "If...I mean if, with your ability, sir, and using the remaining recipes from ancient books you mentioned, can you make a real armored soldier?"

"I don't know. I haven't tried it, so I can't answer it." A slightly complicated light flashed through Lu Jingrong's eyes, "But I think those people may have succeeded in practicing it."

Xie Zhaozhao asked: "Why do you think so?"

Lu Jingrong fell silent, the look in his eyes becoming more complicated.

After Xie Zhaozhao had known him for such a long time, it was the first time that Lu Jingrong had such a look, a mixture of hesitation, hesitation, uneasiness and other emotions.

Xie Zhaozhao did not ask further questions this time, but just waited quietly.

After a long time, Lu Jingrong took a deep breath and said, "I don't know what to say...but if you go after these soldiers and the Qi family, I'll go with you. Maybe we'll wait for a while..."

"Maybe after I accompany you and find some clues, I will know how to tell you."

"Don't worry -" Lu Jingrong turned to look at Xie Zhaozhao, "I will help you. When I think about what to say, I will say it. I will not lie to you or coax you."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded: "Okay!"

When turning around to leave Lu Jingrong's yard, Xie Zhaozhao left a message: "I don't want this subordinate anymore. He should be a living person and shouldn't be like this."

"You can still see his appearance clearly now. You can draw shadows and figures to see who it is from the Qizhou Army Camp. Let him die in peace and go home."

……

Xie Zhaozhao stayed for another two days, and the cartilage on Xie Changheng's body was completely relieved.

Mr. Miao's whereabouts remain unknown.

Xie Zhaozhao looked at Qiu Shui twice and found that she really had no feelings about Mr. Miao's disappearance, so she could only shake her head and sigh.

Xie Zhaozhao thought that since Mr. Miao was very skilled in martial arts and had excellent medical skills, he should not have any problems even if he was alone outside.

In the evening of that day, after Xie Zhaozhao returned to the post house, Xie Changheng sent someone to invite him there.

Xie Changheng said straight to the point: "I plan to return to Beijing."

Xie Zhaozhao was not too surprised and said with a smile: "It's good to go back to Beijing. Fourth brother has not been back to the capital for two years. My mother misses you very much. I will stay a little longer this time to spend time with my family."

"By the way, the third sister's child is several months old and you haven't seen it yet. Huan'er has also returned to the capital."

"Ah."

Xie Changheng nodded, "I know it. I will take... Qiu Shui back and explain the situation to my mother."

Xie Zhaozhao's smile widened: "Congratulations to Fourth Brother in advance."

"Thank you." Xie Changheng looked as usual and accepted his sister's congratulations. Qiu Shui on the side turned his face away uncomfortably, his ears were red, and he found an excuse to go out.

Brother and sister Xie Changheng and Xie Zhaozhao chatted for a while before Xie Changheng asked: "Where are you going to investigate? Do you have a direction now?"

"..."

Xie Zhaozhao was silent for a moment and said: "Yes, Master Lu Hanqiu has found some clues in the past two days about the abandoned armor in the underground palace... The graphics on it seem to come from Danzhou."

"Several officials in Qizhou who had contact with Qi Jingran also confessed that Qi Jingran had been traveling to Danzhou very frequently in the past two years."

"And Qi Jingran's concubine, Mrs. Lu, said that Qi Jingran was dating a young master..."

"I guess there must be some problems in Danzhou. That place in Danzhou..."

Xie Zhaozhao paused when he said this, and his expression became a little gloomy.

Danzhou.

This place was Chu Nanxuan's base camp in his previous life.

Nowadays, all kinds of things are gathering together, which makes Xie Zhaozhao doubt whether the Chu Nanxuan who died in the capital is real.

"Danzhou has a lot of different tribes and it's not a good place."

Xie Changheng frowned slightly, "You have to be more careful when you go...I will go back to the capital first. After I see my mother and explain what happened between me and Qiu Shui, I will go to help you."

"Fourth brother is busy with his own business. I have Mr. Lu with me here, and I know it well." Xie Zhaozhao reassured: "If there are difficulties, I will pass a letter to fourth brother."

"it is good!"

Xie Changheng nodded and said: "By the way, the place in Danzhou is only more than 300 miles away from Yaocheng where the second brother is stationed. It's not too close if you say it's close, but it's not too far if you say it's far."

"I think you can go to Yaocheng to find your second brother first and make a calculation."

"After all, he is very close to Danzhou. If there is really any change in Danzhou in the past two years, maybe he will notice it."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded: "I made a note...when will the fourth brother leave?"

"The day after tomorrow, what about you?"

"I also plan to set off the day after tomorrow. Then we will repair for a day tomorrow and then part ways in Qizhou City the day after."

"it is good!"

Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Xie Zhaozhao put everything in order and took Xuan Jing's team of 20 people, as well as Hongxiu and Hongxia, to say goodbye to Xie Changheng at the official entrance of Qizhou City Gate.

Xie Changheng and Qiu Shui only brought one piece of luggage, traveling as lightly as they had in the past two years.

After the brother and sister said to each other, "Be careful along the way," Xie Changheng watched Xie Zhaozhao get on his horse and warned in a gentle voice: "You must be extremely careful. Find the second brother first, and then check the affairs of Danzhou after meeting the second brother."

"The things behind the Qi family are not that simple. Maybe they have refined the things in the underground palace?"

"The lethality is huge, it's no joke."

"I see."

Xie Zhaozhao nodded seriously and said, "I understand the seriousness, fourth brother, don't worry."

Seeing that she was wise and steady, Xie Changheng felt a little relieved and suddenly felt a little surprised.

It feels like we haven't seen each other for only two years. In the blink of an eye, Xie Zhaozhao has changed a lot.

"gone!"

Xie Zhaozhao pulled the reins of the horse, gave Xie Changheng a farewell look, and led Xuan Jing's group towards the intersection in the distance.
