  Thirty-five giant mechanical beasts walked down the mountain under the leadership of two copper men, creaking and groaning as they moved. They stationed themselves in the middle of the road, forming a diagonal "river" character that completely blocked the way. The two copper men stood at the front, holding large guillotines motionless, even a general riding a horse could only reach their thighs when standing in front of these mechanical beasts.

  The Western Xia soldiers had never seen such a monster before, and for a moment they reined in their war horses, stopping them from advancing. The small yellow flag in the army fluttered again, and the archers came forward, shooting arrows wildly. All that could be heard was the sound of "dang dang dang" as the arrows fell to the ground around the mechanical beasts without causing any harm.

  The mechanical beast remained motionless, the small yellow flag waited for a moment, then quickly waved again, and a team of iron bird soldiers rushed out, with about 100 to 200 riders, dragging large knives weighing 30 to 40 kilograms, charging towards the mechanical beast. When they reached the front, they raised their large knives and chopped!

  But at this moment, a shrill tearing sound suddenly rang out, and a flash of knife light passed by, and more than a hundred knights were all split in two!

  Gong Shu Yanran seemed unwilling to take more lives, and the bronze mechanical beasts only guarded the entrance, not advancing to kill.

  Wu Song thought to himself, "So she's also afraid of the saying that killing people shortens one's lifespan." However, reality wouldn't allow her not to kill. The small yellow flag waved a few more times, and the sound of rumbling wheels came from behind the army as four catapults were pushed forward, each two meters wide and four meters long. More than 300 meters away from the mechanical beasts, they loaded cannonballs onto them, and over twenty soldiers simultaneously pulled to launch them.

  Just then, two mechanical beasts rushed out of the river character array, shaped like rhinos, but with sharp claws on their feet. They covered a distance of over 300 meters in an instant and charged to the front in the blink of an eye, smashing those four catapults into powder, along with the soldiers, who were also sent flying into mid-air!

  The command flag in the Western Xia army fluttered rapidly a few times, and two teams of cavalrymen charged out from left and right, simultaneously whipping out iron chains to entwine around the two mechanical beasts resembling rhinoceroses. The two teams of cavalrymen crossed paths, attempting to bring down those mechanical beasts!

  Those two mechanical beasts stood up, their sharp claws reaching behind them, pulling out two huge swords, swinging left and right, cutting off the iron chains around them, killing the Iron Swallow Army soldiers who fell off their horses.

  The Iron Tortoise Legion hastily retreated, and those two mechanical beasts did not pursue them either. They inserted the giant sword back into their bodies and returned to the River Character Formation, motionless.

  The Western Xia general who was commanding the vanguard banner troops saw this and was at a loss for what to do. He shouted, "Quickly go invite the Gong Pu to come!"

  Next to him, a scout heard it and immediately rode his horse to the rear. In the rear, Empress Liang was sitting in her sedan chair, slowly but steadily hurrying over. Three black-robed red-hatted barbarian monks were also seated in the sedan chair, dry and thin, like three withered tree roots.

  The scout hastily reported the matter, and the leader of the group furrowed his brow: "Is it the Mohist or the Gongshu? If it's the Mohist, their power is great, I'm afraid we can't defeat them. If it's the Gongshu, then that's a different story..."

  Another monk stood up and said, "Even if it's the Mohist school, what can they do? At most, we'll go to Nanhai for a trip and invite the Pu Du Ci Hang people to come!" This ascetic monk was small in stature, but his voice was incredibly loud, like thunder exploding beside one's ears.

  Empress Liang frowned slightly, displeased in her heart, and said: "I had hoped that the three great virtuous monks would eliminate the evil person. The offerings over the years have never been reduced. If you can rescue Ah Mai and Mei Le, next year's offerings will be doubled! I hope the three virtuous monks will do their best, and when they return, I will definitely make golden statues for the three of them!"

  The leader of the Tibetan monks hurriedly stood up and said, "Your Majesty need not worry, we will definitely eliminate that demon and clear the obstacles for the heavenly army." The three Tibetan monks mounted their war horses and quickly walked to the front of the formation. They looked around and the leader smiled, saying, "It's actually a demon from Gongshu's family, it seems they have some skills!" He shouted loudly, "Gongshu's people, you've returned to the world, aren't you afraid that the Mohist and Yin-Yang schools will cause trouble for you?"

  The voice spread throughout the three armies and could be heard everywhere. Wu Song, who was on the mountain waist, also shouted loudly: "No need for Master Gong to worry, our family has a way to solve it!"

  That monk heard the words and smiled at the other two: "I've got him in my plan. Gongshu's family is a junior, can't be provoked, now I know his position. Zhuopu Yang, you sneak forward to ambush, we two will hold down the mechanical beast here, must not let him distract!"

  Zhuo Pu shook his black robe like a big bird and plunged into the forest. At the same time, Wu Song said to Yang Zong and Lu Da on the mountain: "I've tricked that monk, thinking I'm Gong Sun's daughter, he'll definitely come to sneak attack! Brother Lu, go up the mountain to protect Gong Sun's daughter, Brother Yang follows me all the way to find him, see that monk and chop him off, then kill the other two with ease!"

  Ruda and Yang Jian applauded, the three of them split into two paths. Wu Song and Yang Jian quietly went down the mountain and ambushed at the edge of the forest. They saw a thin monk along the thicket, quietly moving towards the middle of the mountain. Wu Song gave Yang Jian a glance, and immediately like a ghost, he disappeared into the thicket.

  Wu Song crouched at the edge of the forest, looking towards the Western Xia army. He saw that the two black-robed monks were about a hundred paces away. The hot-tempered monk suddenly leaned forward on his horseback, like a giant scorpion, his whole body trembling, and spat out a black scorpion the size of a palm from his open mouth, which landed on the warhorse's head.

  The scorpion grew with the wind, and in the blink of an eye it became a huge creature, weighing heavily on the war horse, crushing it into a lump of flesh. Its body was as black as iron, its 21-section tail like a three-foot-long steel whip, swinging back and forth in the air, spewing venom from the hook everywhere. Several Western Xia soldiers dodged too late, and when the venom splashed onto their bodies, they immediately turned pitch black and fell to the ground dead. After a moment, even their armor was gone, and they had all dissolved into a puddle of pus.

  Another monk was much more elegant, with sleeves covering his face. After a moment, he pulled out an egg-shaped object larger than an ostrich egg, snow-white like silver. A silvery-gray bee emerged from the egg, its waist extremely slender, like a beautiful woman, hence the name "beautiful woman bee". The bee spat out a sticky liquid on the monk's palm, dissolving the eggshell into water, which it absorbed completely, then flapped its wings and flew into the air. Its body suddenly swelled up like a giant bird, emitting a buzzing sound only fighter jets could match. A poisonous stinger protruded from its tail, resembling a black iron spear.

  That monk hadn't finished yet, and a lizard emerged from the shadow under his feet, its body covered in bumps and ridges, with white toxic liquid flowing out of it. The lizard crawled forward, getting bigger and bigger, like an elongated crocodile, shaking its head and wagging its tail, charging straight at the mechanical beast!

  That lizard's back smoke billowed, but it was a big scorpion that rushed up, two monsters collided in the middle of the road, bumping into each other, neither willing to give way. Two foreign monks hastily pulled out small drums and thumped them loudly, only then did the two monsters stop fighting.

  Whether it's a lizard, black scorpion or poisonous bee, they are all part of the Miao Jia Gu technique's Five Poisonous Insects, also known as the Five Poisonous Insects. There are also two other types: the toad and the green snake, each with its own name. The toad is called Qilin Gu, the green snake is Long Gu, the lizard is Jiao Gu, the poisonous bee is Qingming Gu, and the scorpion is Pipa Gu.

  The cultivation method of the five venomous insects was originally obtained by Zhuba, the teacher of these Tibetan monks, when he traveled to the southern border and coincidentally encountered it. Zhuba, being a virtuous and noble monk, did not want to cultivate this evil technique, so he passed it on to his disciples. This insect technique cultivates quickly and is quite powerful when used; among Zhuba's more than ten disciples, all of them successfully cultivated the insect gods, with some cultivating one type, others two types, and only a few exceptionally talented ones managing to cultivate all five types.

  Among the disciples who went out, the highest was the one led by Fan Seng, who refined two kinds of Gu gods: Jiao Jiao and Qing Ming Jiao.

  Wu Song narrowed his eyes and glanced at the three Guishen, only to see that the Mechanical Beast and the Guishen had clashed together. The big pincers, iron tail, poisonous stingers, and poisonous whips flew through the air, interspersed with flashes of cold light. The two monsters rolled and tumbled about, but in just an instant, the Mechanical Beast took advantage of its physical superiority to suppress the Guishen's attack, causing the two Bhikkhus to beat their drums even more urgently.
