Chapter 65 No Man's Land
Ding Yi put on the old clothes from yesterday, and then hurriedly left the courtyard with Bihe.
The two walked one after the other toward the city wall, and soon arrived at the open area.
Many farmers were already working in the fields, making it much less deserted than yesterday. Ding Yi pointed to a house in a row of small courtyards across the way and said:
"My lord, it's right there."
The main reason Ding Yi dared to bring Bihe here was because Bihe was an outsider.
As the largest gang in the outer city, Ding Yi absolutely refused to believe that the Black Dragon Gang had no connections with the powerful figures in the inner city.
But Bihe is different. As the special envoy investigating the external evil incident, Ding Yi believes that even if the Black Dragon Gang is backed by the Surveillance Department, Bihe will not hold back.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have needed to come here in person with her mistress.
Sure enough, Bihe looked at the small courtyard in the distance, her eyes slightly narrowed, as if she was plotting something.
"Sir, should we call for help?"
Ding Yi asked in a low voice.
"No need. There are too many people and too many eyes in the inner city. We can't trust many of them. Let's go."
As Bihe spoke, she took the lead and walked towards the small courtyard in the distance.
Seeing this, Ding Yi was somewhat excited, but he remained expressionless and followed steadily behind Bi He, showing no intention of leading the way.
The two walked very fast, and soon they approached the courtyard. At that moment, several figures wearing straw hats who had been bending over and working in the fields stood up and looked at them.
"Sure enough, there were people watching us."
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi did not show much surprise on his face, but a hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.
Places with informants both inside and outside are more likely to be the real targets.
As the two drew closer, the farmers began to fan out around them. Some of them carried hoes, while others carried sickles. Although they looked like ordinary people, their steps were steady and powerful, and their eyes, hidden under their straw hats, were filled with a strong murderous intent.
"grown ups..."
Ding Yi gave Bihe a reminder, but then he saw Bihe's clothes slowly billowing.
"This is the罡气 (罡气 is a type of internal energy)?"
Upon seeing this, Ding Yi's brow twitched.
Both the martial artist's internal organ refinement and the god-worshipping Xuanji Realm can cultivate internal energy from the five internal organs.
The former is called Yuan Gang, and the latter is called Sha Gang.
Although they have different names, their power is similar. Anyone below the Refining Organs Realm will be injured if they touch them, and die if they get stuck to them.
Ding Yi had also consulted Bai Wangyun, and Bai Wangyun's explanation was quite simple.
Gang Jin is the first watershed for martial artists. The reason why the gods refer to skin polishing and bone forging as "Tai Zang" and "internal organ refining and bloodline transformation" as "Xuan Ji" is because there is a huge gap between these two realms.
At this moment, Bihe walked faster and faster ahead, her figure almost running on the grass. Her green gauze dress fluttered in the wind, like a leaping grass sprite.
In an instant, Bihe pierced through the crowd of attackers like a sharp knife, while Ding Yi behind her heard several muffled thuds and saw several bursts of blood.
The strong smell of blood wafted into Ding Yi's nostrils on the breeze. This almost primal stimulation caused his blood and qi to flow uncontrollably faster.
Looking ahead now, that figure had already passed through the grass and arrived in front of the courtyard. All that remained along the way were broken limbs and broken farm tools.
"The Refining Organs Realm is already this powerful, I wonder how strong Old Man Bai is?"
Seeing this scene, Ding Yi suddenly realized that he was still a frog in a well. Although he had superhuman skills, he started too late and needed to keep a low profile in the future. He should never make a move unless he was absolutely certain of victory.
Just then, Bihe simply stood in front of the door for a moment and sensed it for a while before striking out with her palm, which landed on the large wooden door.
"boom!"
Another loud explosion rang out, and the thick, red-lacquered wooden door shattered into pieces and flew into the courtyard, revealing the astonished people behind it.
Who are you?
Qiu Yuanhua looked at the wooden door fragments that flew into the courtyard, his eyes filled with apprehension. He then looked at Bihe, who was standing at the door, and coldly shouted.
"This is a special order from the Yin-Yang Palace envoy. Seeing this order is like seeing the person in person. Everyone, kneel down and obey!"
Bihe took out a golden token from her waist and flashed it at everyone.
Upon seeing this, Qiu Yuanzhen was immediately alarmed.
A special envoy from the Yin-Yang Palace? What the heck? Isn't the Black Dragon Gang protected by the Surveillance Department? Why is there another special envoy?
Because Qiu Yuanzhen had been stationed in this small courtyard, he didn't know much about what was happening in the inner city, and he didn't know when a special envoy from the Yin-Yang Palace had come to Qingfeng County. But at this moment, regardless of whether the other party was real or not, Qiu Yuanzhen knew that he was in big trouble.
Harboring evil spirits is a capital offense. This girl looks young, but she has already cultivated internal energy; she's probably a deity worshipper.
"damn it."
Qiu Yuanzhen's face was extremely ugly. He cursed the entire Black Dragon Gang as a bunch of good-for-nothings. He covered his face with his sleeve, pushed off with his feet, and leaped onto the top of the wall, clearly preparing to escape.
Upon seeing this, Bihe snorted coldly and leaped up to chase after Qiu Yuanzhen.
The two disappeared from the rooftop in an instant with a leap, and no one knew where they went.
Ding Yi, standing at the back, stared in disbelief at the scene, secretly thinking how close he had come to disaster.
The old man in black robes was clearly a martial arts master of the Gang Jin realm. Luckily, he hadn't acted rashly and had brought Bi He with him; otherwise, he might have really been caught off guard.
Ding Yi's evaluation of the Black Dragon Gang rose several notches because they could actually hire a martial arts master with the strength of a Qi.
However, now that Bihe has chased after him, she'll have to clean up the mess herself.
Thinking of this, Ding Yi looked at the two astonished men in the courtyard and sighed inwardly.
"Didn't you hear me? This is an investigation by the Yin-Yang Palace's special envoy. Everyone, put your hands on your heads and squat down!"
Ding Yi stepped into the courtyard and shouted at the two men.
These two men were the same two martial artists Ding Yi had followed yesterday. They were at most at the Bone Forging stage, which is why Ding Yi dared to enter the courtyard.
At that moment, the two men heard Ding Yi's words, then exchanged a glance, seemingly understanding the meaning in each other's eyes, before charging towards Ding Yi simultaneously.
What Yin-Yang Palace envoy? Kill the messenger and break out! The world is vast, how could it possibly trap us!
Seeing this, Ding Yi expressionlessly threw out a bright green cylinder, then turned and jumped out of the door.
"Oh!"
A blinding white light flashed across the courtyard. Even in broad daylight, Ding Yi could sense how dazzling that moment had been from the exaggerated changes in light and shadow behind him.
Sure enough, two screams immediately came from the courtyard.
"mean!!!"
My eyes!!!!!!!!!
"What kind of hidden weapon is this?!?!"
Ding Yi leaned against the wall next to the courtyard gate, listening to the screams behind him. He muttered "sb" a few times, then drew his sword and turned to walk inside without expression.
