In a small wooden house by the lake, Zhou Ming had a reassuring charm affixed to his body. His face was as calm as water, and he was holding a charm pen dipped in cinnabar and hanging it over the yellow paper.

Suddenly, he moved his finger, and the talisman pen fell on the yellow paper. He drew down and a red vertical mark appeared on the yellow paper.

"It's done!"

The reassuring charm fell, and Zhou Ming's face showed joy.

The yellow talisman in front of me is extremely simple, with only a red vertical mark and nothing else. No matter which temple or Taoist temple you sell this yellow talisman, no pilgrim will pay attention to it.

.

But this talisman has real power.

Lightning strike talisman!

Under the effect of Tongtianlu's "practice makes perfect", he finally reached the state of forming a talisman with one finger. From then on, when Zhou Ming drew the lightning strike talisman, he only had to stretch out his finger and a talisman could be directly formed.

"It's not in vain that I gave up all other talismans these days and focused on practicing this one. After all, I have drawn this lightning talisman not 10,000 times, but 8,000 times. I have finally reached this level of proficiency.

Spend!"

Zhou Ming looked at the lightning strike talisman in front of him, which could not be called a talisman at all, and sighed in his heart, then put it into the storage space.

This is the first "one-finger-formed talisman" he painted, which is quite memorable.

Unfortunately, this talisman is made of yellow paper and cinnabar from this world and cannot be taken out of the world.

Also unable to take him away are the seven to eight thousand lightning talismans he drew in the past few days.

He planned to find an open place to detonate the fireworks on the day when the limited time was over, just to watch and have fun setting off fireworks.

Suddenly, dense footsteps were heard outside the house, from far to near, and one could tell that there were quite a few people there.

He looked out from the window and saw longing figures in the woods. There was the sound of soldiers clashing as they walked. He was afraid that the visitor was unkind.

Zhou Ming couldn't understand for a moment. The Black Stone had collapsed. Where would the enemy be to deal with him now?

No, there should be another enemy!

emperor!

He appeared in the palace, but the emperor thought he was the one who assassinated him. After that, the imperial court placed a reward on Zhou Ming and pursued him, but it never stopped.

"Damn it! I was still tricked by the Lord God. If the Lord God hadn't sent me directly to the palace, where would the imperial court have offered a reward to kill me?"

Zhou Ming quickly packed up the things in the house. After thinking for a while, he scattered 200 lightning charms and posted them all over the wooden house before quietly leaving the wooden house.

There is no moon tonight, and the woods by the lake look particularly dark.

Zhou Ming quietly hid in a tree, holding a golden ghost candle in his hand.

The light emitted by the ghost candle could only be seen by himself. In the eyes of others, it was still dark. With this light, Zhou Ming could clearly see the situation at the moment.

From three sides of the woods, more than forty men in black quietly approached the wooden house.

The reason why there are three sides instead of four is because the fourth side is a lake.

When Zhou Ming took a look, the clothes and appearance of these forty people looked familiar. They were all Blackstone killers.

But they are not the key. The key is that behind these forty people, there are one after another wearing armor, swords and bows. They look like elite soldiers at first glance.

The more than 40 killers walked quietly, probably because of their professional habits, but the soldiers behind did not have such a habit, and their footsteps were loud.

The trees in the forest are dense, and it is impossible to tell how many soldiers there are just by the light of the ghost candles, but judging from the sound of their marching footsteps, the number is at least five hundred!

Behind the killer and in front of the soldier, there are six other people, dressed differently from the two groups before and after.

Zhou Ming took a look and found that he knew all these people. One of them was the red-robed old eunuch who had been chasing him in the previous palace, and the other five were the captains of the palace guards.

He recalled that these five guard captains seemed to have relatively good martial arts among all the captains.

"The Blackstone Killer, the heavily armed elite soldiers, and the palace masters, how come these people get together?"

Zhou Ming thought.

"I am afraid that the only expert in the palace who can mobilize these elite soldiers is the emperor, and the Black Stone Killer... The leader of the Black Stone, King Chakravartin, is originally a ninth-grade eunuch in the palace. Could it be said that the so-called Black Stone itself is the power of the emperor?"

This is not shown in the movie plot.

However, it can be deduced from this that Chakravartin King has good martial arts talent, but his personal abilities are average.

He has been in the palace for decades, but he is still only a ninth-grade eunuch, which shows his lack of personal ability. If it were anyone else, if he had a higher emotional intelligence and his martial arts, he would be able to move up a few ranks.

In the second half of the movie, after the identity of the Chakravartin King is revealed, he reveals his dissatisfaction in front of Ye Chanqing, which is enough to show that his identity as a ninth-grade eunuch is not deliberately hidden, but that he really cannot be promoted.

How can a person with only military force and low other abilities form a huge killer organization and run it perfectly?

There are only two possibilities. First, Blackstone itself is a large organization, and Chakravartin just took over later.

Secondly, Blackstone is indeed an organization created by King Chakravartin, but behind him, there are other people helping him.

"There are rumors in the world that the Black Stone is the cornerstone of darkness in the imperial court... It is really so!"

No matter which possibility it is, what happened today is enough to prove that Black Stone is absolutely inextricably linked to the imperial court and the emperor.

So, what to do now?

Escape?

Although there are many of them, with Zhou Ming's Qinggong and the talismans he has mastered, it can be said that it is easy to escape.

But Zhou Ming immediately rejected this idea.

What to run away from?

Fuck tnd!

Because he now lives alone without having to go into the city or worry about anything, he has long since changed his monk's robe into his original windbreaker.

At this moment at night, the windbreaker's 'half-human, half-ghost' effect takes effect.

Zhou Mingxian took out fifty diamond talismans and pasted them all over the inside of the windbreaker.

During the affixing period, these killers and soldiers had already approached the wooden house. The soldiers stopped, bows and arrows were drawn, and they aimed at the wooden house. However, the killers continued to move forward and touched the edge of the wooden house.

Zhou Ming's wooden house is made of tree trunks piled into the walls. If you directly use bows and arrows to attack from a distance, the effect may not be great. Therefore, these killers are needed to force Zhou Ming out, and then fire another round to kill Zhou Ming.

.

The killers were reluctant in their hearts, but while the five hundred bows were aimed at the wooden house, they were also aimed at their backs. Anyone who escaped would be shot dead in an instant.

They can only follow orders.

The killers came to the door, suddenly opened the door and went in, only to see nothing.

There was no one in the house at all!

"It's a pity..." Zhou Ming was watching not far away and sighed in his heart: "It's a pity that the old eunuch in red robe and the captains of the guards are too cautious and unwilling to rush ahead and take risks, otherwise..."

In an instant, all two hundred lightning talismans in the wooden house were activated. The dazzling thunder light shined extremely brightly in the dark night. The surging power of thunder and lightning directly killed all the black stone killers in the wooden house. It was not easy to explode.

The force even blew the wooden house into pieces, and countless large and small fragments flew in all directions with the impact.

Hundreds of soldiers surrounded them thirty steps away, but the impact range of the debris was far beyond thirty steps. Countless wood fragments were thrown at them, and their completely irregular shapes made the damage even stronger.

Among the people, the one with the highest martial arts skills was undoubtedly the old eunuch in red robe. He burst out with the fastest speed, and the red robe almost pulled out the afterimage, dodging all the flying wood fragments. At the same time, he also saw the back of the wooden house.

A yellow figure flew out.

"It's him! There! Everyone..."

He wanted to call all his men to shoot, but under the wood fragments from the explosion, the soldiers in the front row were affected, and the soldiers in the back row could not see anyone, so it was naturally impossible to shoot.
