Chapter 49: Drive the tiger to devour the wolf!
"What new discoveries have you made this time?"
In the study, Wuxie Daozi asked casually.
It had only been a few days , and he didn't think there was anything really unusual in the county.
It seems to be something insignificant.
Unexpectedly, Xu Chong waved his hand and said, "It was Fu Yuanlong who asked me to come back."
"Um?"
Wu Xie Daozi's face turned stern, and he instinctively felt that something was wrong, "Fu Yuanlong? Why would he drive you back for no reason?"
"It's still about the mummy. "
Xu Chong replied, "There is a slum in the city, and the first people who died were there. I asked someone to deal with the bodies today, and found a dead rat there. Fu Yuanlong was afraid of an epidemic, so he asked me to come back."
"An epidemic?"
Wuxie Daozi frowned and denied it directly: "This is impossible!"
"It's not even winter yet, and leaving the body unattended is still risky. How can it be impossible?"
Xu Chong was puzzled.
"I'm not saying that there won't be an epidemic, but Fu Yuanlong won't worry about it."
Wu Xie Daozi stood up and paced around the study. "A warrior's strength is self-generated. Even someone like you who has just awakened is not easily infected. What's more, he has Tongmai... Even if a mere corpse plague breaks out, it won't threaten him."
"Are you worried that the plague will cause a sharp decline in population and affect the operation of the Mother-Child Blood Light Mirror?"
Xu Chong guessed.
"Well...it's possible, but it's far-fetched."
Wuxie Daozi pondered and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, the imperial court and Taiping Dao will send people to take over in half a month at most. Even is impossible for them to die out in half a month."
"You mean... Fu Yuanlong is deliberately sending me away?"
Xu Chong continued to guide.
"Probably."
Wuxie Daozi became serious, "You just said you found a dead rat. What kind of dead rat?"
"It was just a very big dead rat."
Xu Chong said, using his hands to indicate the size, "It's exactly this big."
"!!!"
Wu Xie Daozi's pupils shrank drastically, and he asked in shock, "What did you say?!"
"What's wrong? Any problem?"
Xu Chong's face froze, "Is it really an epidemic?"
"impossible!"
Wuxie Daozi calmed down, his face unable to hide his excitement, "The epidemic will only damage the body, how could it make the body bigger?"
"Then this is..."
Xu Chong was surprised.
"If I'm not mistaken, the only thing that could cause this phenomenon is that precious treasure!"
Wuxie Daozi's eyes were extremely fiery, no longer as indifferent as before.
"A treasure?"
Xu Chong became nervous, "Will Fu Yuanlong figure it out... No, he must have figured it out, but why did he send me away? Shouldn't he gather everyone and search for the treasure immediately?"
"I should have told you..."
Wuxie Daozi narrowed his eyes, "Who wouldn't want to take possession of a treasure of that level if there was a chance?"
"Keep it all to yourself?!"
Xu Chong's face turned pale with anger.
"It's getting dark. Fu Yuanlong has probably already left. We can't wait any longer."
Wuxie Daozi said firmly, "Where is that place? I must rush there immediately!"
"It's in the Blackwater Dock in the southwest corner. You'll see the dilapidated scene with weeds all over it. It's easy to find."
Xu Chong said quickly, and then asked: "Are you sure? Fu Yuanlong must have made full preparations for coming to Canglong."
"Don't worry, two Fu Yuanlongs are no match for me. Even if he is well prepared, it will be fine for me to leave."
Wuxie Daozi chuckled sinisterly, his figure flashed, and he disappeared in a flash.
Xu Chong walked to the door and looked around for a while, his expression darkening.
He knew that the other half of the plan was completed.
what's the plan?
Of course, it is to kill Fu Yuanlong.
Although he did not spend much effort in running Canglang, it was still his territory after all.
Come as you please, leave as you please, kill as you please...Have you asked him?
So, Fu Yuanlong deserves to die.
But how to kill him requires careful planning and there cannot be any mistakes.
The first thing Xu Chong did was to judge Fu Yuanlong's strength.
Judging from the fact that Fu Yuanlong was able to injure Sun Yourong instead of killing her when he was chasing her, his strength must be greater than Sun Yourong's Tongmai Level 1.
In addition, the water ghost four years ago was at the fifth level of Tongmai. Zhou Ze disguised as a water ghost was able to scare Fu Yuanlong so much that he didn't even dare to try. This also shows that no matter how strong Fu Yuanlong is, he will not exceed the fifth level of Tongmai.
No matter how strong you are, it won't exceed the fifth level of Tongmai...
Although it sounded easy to say, even if he used his spiritual energy to improve himself at all costs, he could not reach the fifth level of Tongmai.
And don't forget, after that, Fu Yuanlong was promoted to centurion based on his merits, and it is very likely that he also broke through his realm.
It does not exceed the fifth level of Tongmai, and becomes no more than the sixth level of Tongmai.
With all these factors combined, Xu Chong could only rule out the option of taking action himself.
If I don't take action myself, who can kill Fu Yuanlong?
There is one and only one possibility.
Wuxie Daozi.
Xu Chong speculated that Wuxie Daozi's strength was at least not weaker than the current water ghost.
That kind of condescending attitude and disdainful tone cannot be supported by Daozi's identity alone.
Four years ago, Shui Gui was at the fifth level of Tongmai. Now, to be conservative, he is at the sixth level of Tongmai.
That Wuxie Daozi is at least at the sixth level of Tongmai.
One is no more than the sixth level of Tongmai, and the other is at least the sixth level of Tongmai. The strong and the weak are clearly distinguished, and the plan was decided.
——Drive the tiger to devour the wolf.
The tiger is the son of the innocent way.
The wolf is Fu Yuanlong.
After making a plan, the next thing Xu Chong needs to do is to find the point where the tigers and wolves will fight each other.
The two people stayed in Canglang with the same purpose, which was to delay time and gain credit.
It can be said that they will not easily offend each other.
It is not easy to provoke a fight between the two.
Xu Chong thought about it and it seemed that only a fragment of a cave could make this happen.
But the problem is that he doesn't have any fragments of the cave.
In desperation, he could only report the matter of the mummy as an abnormality to Taoist Wuxie, in an attempt to obtain information about the fragments of the cave.
As a result, Wuxie Daozi didn't know either.
However, it was this unknown that made Xu Chong's plan completely perfect.
Since no one knows what the fragments of the cave heaven look like...
So why build one yourself?
It doesn't need to be very similar, as long as the two people can believe that it is a fragment of the cave.
And Xu Chong can do exactly this.
He didn't know much about the cave, he only knew one thing.
The cave also contains spiritual energy.
As for spiritual energy, he had plenty of it.
then.
A huge gray-haired rat appeared in Heishuiwu.
Zhao Liu, who was in charge of burying the mummies, happened to find the rat. In a panic, he led everyone to kill it.
Because they were afraid of the plague, they left in a hurry after dealing with the mummy, and failed to discover the things hidden deeper...
Xu Chong reviewed the plan from beginning to end again, and after confirming that there were no loopholes, he closed the wooden door of the study and left.
Now, it's time to prepare for the outcome of a fight between tigers and wolves.
The normal result is that the tiger swallows the wolf.
The probability of both sides suffering losses is relatively small, depending on how big the wolf's trump card is.
As for a wolf devouring a tiger, that is unlikely.
No matter what the outcome is, it's always a good idea to be more prepared.
