Besides, I was ordered to come to support Xiang Zhaoheng this time, and my Xuanzhen Master and his old man are still staring at me at Qingling Mountain at any time. If I really had a conflict with Xiang Zhaoheng, would Master Xuanzhen think that I did it on purpose, so as to avoid meeting Qu Zhaolin on the battlefield?

The next evening, I sat in her tent with Lan Yueji and said, "Patriarch Lan, there's something I haven't figured out too much. ”

"Are you going to ask about the sense of estrangement between me and Xiang Zhaoheng?" asked elegantly, holding a delicate long dry smoking gun in her hand.

I nodded and said, "Yes, you are the friendly army that saved him from danger at the most critical time, and you have fought together against the Wu army for many years, you should be like a family, right?"

Lan Yueji asked someone to hand me a cigarette gun and said, "You can also taste the special tobacco of our Sina tribe." ”

I took the cigarette and lit it, took a puff and said, "Well, it's really good." I haven't smoked in a few years since I was imprisoned in Siguo Cliff. ”

Lan Yueji said: "Actually, Xiang Zhaoheng and I have known each other for more than ten years. At that time, he had not yet been made the crown prince, and the old King of Chu wanted the Chu State to get closer to the tribes of our 100,000 mountains, so he sent an envoy represented by King Zheng to enter the 100,000 mountains to meet with our major tribes. Xiang Zhaoheng, who was still a minor at the time, entered the 100,000 Mountains with the Chu State delegation as the prince of Chu State. ”

Lan Yueji took a soft puff of cigarette and continued: "Xiang Zhaoheng back then was sunny and straightforward, and he was full of curiosity about everything in the 100,000 mountains. At that time, he would often disguise himself as a civilian, and then secretly run to our village to contact our local people, and his acquaintance with Dao Jianing was also at that time. ”

However, with the continuous open and secret fighting within the royal family of the Chu State for many years, Xiang Zhaoheng had to restrain his frank character and become more and more cautious and restrained. And when the Seventh Prince defected to the Sacred Heart Sect to usurp the throne, and immediately turned against his own brother, Xiang Zhaoheng completely stopped trusting anyone. ”

I sighed slightly and said, "According to this, it is not easy for Xiang Zhaoheng to be him." However, if friendly forces are always wary of each other, many things will be done with half the effort, and even cause a lot of unnecessary sacrifices. ”

"There's no way around it. Xiang Zhaoheng doesn't trust anyone now, and the number and strength of our clan's army far exceed that of his prince's army, he must be worried that in the long run, some of the border cities of the Chu State will eventually fall under our control. Therefore, although on the surface he has always cooperated with us in an all-round way, regardless of the distribution of materials and the attribution of military achievements, secretly he has always been wary of us and often hinders the actions of our army. Blue Moon Ji said.

I took a puff of my cigarette and asked, "Then Qin Yi was in the same situation as me when he came here before?"

Lan Yueji asked with some surprise: "After Daoist Qin returned to Kunlun Mountain, didn't he mention the matter here to you?"

I smiled bitterly: "After our head Senior Brother Yun Ze was attacked by our Kunlun faction traitors, Qin Yi took Senior Brother Yun Ze all the way back to Kunlun Mountain. But Qin Yi himself was seriously injured and fell into a coma after returning to Kunlun Mountain, and after he finally woke up, we only cared about the affairs of Qingling Mountain at that time, and didn't talk to him about other things at all. ”

"That's right. How is Daoist Qin doing at the moment?" asked Lan Yueji.

I said, "Well, Qin Yi is fine now, and he will be fine if he recuperates on Kunlun Mountain for a while." ”

Lan Yueji nodded and said, "En, Daoist Qin is fine." At that time, when Daoist Qin came here to support, it was the most difficult period of the war, and Daoist Qin turned the tide with his powerful strength, which made everyone recognize him very much. Moreover, when Daoist Qin was here, he was only responsible for killing the enemy on the battlefield, and never asked about other things. Therefore, Xiang Zhaoheng has always treated Qin Daochang with great courtesy. ”

"But you are different, you are different, your reputation in Middle-earth is too prominent, and you have a deep relationship with the powerful forces of all parties. In the case that Xiang Zhaoheng did not receive any news in advance, you suddenly came here to hide your whereabouts, which had to make him feel threatened. Speaking of which, Daoist You may not like to hear it, if Daoist You really has such an idea, he will be replaced directly as the prince of Chu State, I'm afraid that with Daoist You's ability, it's not impossible to do it, right?" Lan Yueji looked at me and said.

I smiled and said, "Patriarch Lan, you are so good at laughing, I changed the crown prince of Chu in Chu State, how can I have such great ability?"

Lan Yueji looked at it and said, "Daoist Chief, you don't have to be humble in front of me. I can't think of any such elaborate planning as the Wanderer, but I can think of the easiest way now. That is, in the name of your tour chief, to tell the world that Xiang Zhaoheng is not the true son of the Chu State. You Dao Chang has a heavenly magic skill, and there is no omission, if you say such a thing, how can anyone in the whole world not believe it. ”

I nodded with a wry smile and said, "Okay, I admit it, the method you said Patriarch Lan is indeed something I can do. However, in this way, Jinling Pass is likely to be broken by the Wu army. Moreover, all forces have always entered the Chu State to attack the Sacred Heart Sect under the banner of assisting Xiang Zhaoheng to inherit the unification of the Chu State. If I dare to do that, it's going to be a big mess. ”

Lan Yueji smiled: "I just said it casually. After all, Xiang Zhaoheng is essentially no problem, and I think he will become a qualified King of Chu in the future. I just want to say that it is precisely because you have such influence that Xiang Zhaoheng is particularly jealous of you. ”

"Alas. . . At present, among the major battlefields in Middle-earth, the Wu army is not the most important threat, nor is it the key to the turning point of the war. If it weren't for my Xuanzhen Master sending me here to deal with Qu Zhaolin, I wouldn't have come here. I said helplessly.

Blue Moon Ji asked, "Then Dao Master has already made up his mind to deal with that holy woman with his own hands?"

I nodded seriously and said, "Well, as long as we meet on the battlefield, I will kill her." ”。

Lan Yueji didn't bother with the question between me and Qu Zhaolin, and asked again, "Then the Dao Master has a good strategy to retreat from the enemy now?"

I nodded and said, "I originally planned to let Hua Ruoqiu use voodoo to directly poison all the Wu army. However, what I learned today is that the army of the Wicans is not concentrated in a fixed city, so it is difficult to kill them all at once with voodoo. And now it's best to find a chance to deal with the Wu Clan at once, otherwise Ruoqiu won't be able to find a chance to make another move. ”
