Chapter 434: Imperial Guards
Zhou Yaowu returned to his place with doubts in his heart, he didn't understand what the patriarch meant, he had worked with the patriarch for decades, Zhou Yaowu found that he had never understood this patriarch, and he would never understand what he was thinking.
The patriarch's words have been lingering in his ears, and after more than ten years, let him inherit the position of the patriarch, and now he is only in his fifties, and he is only in his sixties after more than ten years, which of the people who have reached the top in Huaxia is not sixty or seventy years old, and sixty or seventy years old is not too old for a warrior.
Although Zhou Yaowu didn't have much desire to be the patriarch, it didn't mean that he didn't think that as long as he was a human being, he would have a thirst for power.
Similarly, Zhou Yaowu also understood in his heart that Zhou Kunqian's matter was a test, and if he caught Zhou Kunqian back, he would definitely make a big achievement, and he might have a chance to become the patriarch, but if he failed, the patriarch was just a joke.
"It's so enticing. Zhou Yaowu naturally saw the relationship clearly, and couldn't help but sigh with a wry smile.
"Elder, the Imperial Guards are here. At this time, a man came in and reported.
"So fast?" Zhou Yaowu said in surprise, originally he thought that the royal guards would come over tomorrow at the earliest, but he didn't expect that when he arrived home on the front foot, the royal guards on the back foot would come over, it seemed that the patriarch was urging him in this way, so that he could find Zhou Kunqian as soon as possible, the patriarch really couldn't wait, and seemed to have lost the mind of waiting.
Zhou Yaowu also understood in his heart that the royal guards came to help and dispatched after listening, but I am afraid that they still have the meaning of surveillance.
"This time, in the matter of arresting Zhou Kunqian, we can't procrastinate and get by, otherwise my position as an elder will not only be lost, but I am afraid that he will enter purgatory to be punished. Zhou Yaowu secretly smiled bitterly in his heart.
Zhou Yaowu had been in contact with the punishment of the Zhou royal family before, so he naturally understood the horror of purgatory, which was really comparable to hell, and if he wanted to say that the application of torture was easy to use, and if he was full of tricks, it was naturally the royal prison, which was the so-called heavenly prison, and the purgatory of the Zhou royal family was the royal prison, not only the Zhou royal family, but also the twelve royal families.
Purgatory exists more to imprison those who have made mistakes and have sinned not to death, or who cannot die for the time being, and do not let them have a good time, not only their own people, but also enemies, who are subjected to inhuman torture every day, and sometimes, life is worse than death.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yaowu couldn't help but shudder, the temptation of power and the threat of life made Zhou Yaowu deeply understand that this time he could only do his best to arrest Zhou Kunqian, and he couldn't let him go.
Zhou Yaowu hurriedly came to the hall, these royal guards were not only helpers, but also knives around his neck, so that Zhou Yaowu did not dare to slack off at all.
There were eleven people standing in the hall, a middle-aged man in his forties who took the lead, and the rest of the ten people were relatively young, but they were generally over thirty years old, and all of them had extraordinary momentum and sharp edges.
"Captain Song, I haven't seen you for a long time, I didn't expect the patriarch to send you over. Zhou Yaowu said with a smile at the leader.
"Hello Elder, Song Ming is ordered by the patriarch to accept your dispatch, if there is anything you order, our brothers will do their best to complete it, even if they lose their lives. Song Ming said with a respectful but not flattering smile.
"Okay, okay,,,, you guys sit down quickly and serve tea. Zhou Yaowu smiled, looking very polite.
Song Ming and the other eleven people were not polite, they sat directly on the chair next to them, and they didn't have the consciousness of being a subordinate at all, and Zhou Yaowu didn't care too much.
Although Zhou Yaowu is the elder of the Zhou royal family, he has a lot of power, and his position is much higher than these people, but as the saying goes, the prime minister is a seven-rank official in front of the door, and he is also the emperor's personal guard, and the patriarch of the Zhou royal family is actually no different from the emperor, so these imperial guards are not only a matter of high school seniors, sometimes even some elders have to slap these people.
"Captain Song, I don't know if the patriarch has any orders?" Zhou Yaowu asked after taking a sip of tea.
"No, the patriarch only ordered us to obey the orders of the elders in everything, and there must be no disobedience, otherwise we will go to purgatory. Song Ming said with a smile.
Looking at the smile on Song Ming's face, Zhou Yaowu naturally wouldn't break it, doing that kind of brainless thing, Song Ming must have a secret order, just pointed out purgatory, it was a bit of a warning, everyone is a smart person, no one will explain it, just know it in your heart.
"In this case, I will have to work hard for Captain Song and you in the future. Zhou Yaowu said politely.
"This is nature, everything is for the Zhou royal family. Song Ming nodded.
"All for the sake of the Zhou royal family. Zhou Yaowu also said solemnly.
"Captain Song, I plan to leave tomorrow, what do you think?" Zhou Yaowu asked with a hint of tentativeness.
"Everything is arranged by the elders, but Song Ming also has a suggestion to the elders, since the patriarch is in such a hurry to send us over, he naturally hopes that the sooner the better, the elders should know it in their hearts." Song Ming said.
"Captain Song can rest assured, because some intelligence issues still need to be confirmed, and it won't be delayed for long. Zhou Yaowu's heart sank, seeing that his guess was not wrong, so he said with a smile.
"That's good. Song Ming nodded.
Watching Song Ming leave with ten people, Zhou Yaowu's face couldn't help but turn cold and fell into deep thought.
"Elder. What should we do?" asked one of the people next to him.
"The information is confirmed as soon as possible, and you will leave early tomorrow morning, and you will go and get ready. Zhou Yaowu said.
"Yes, Elder. The man quickly left.
"The Imperial Guards are truly worthy of their reputation. Zhou Yaowu looked out of the hall and said with a sigh.
Song Ming, who took the lead, is very strong, but it is a little worse than Zhou Yaowu, and the other ten people are also masters, all of whom have undergone cruel training, and the individual strength of these people is not very good for some top masters, but once these people unite and form a formation, their strength will instantly rise several times, and these are the most terrifying.
The members of the Imperial Guards are all cultivated from childhood, and the members are all members from the Zhou Imperial Family and members of the affiliated families of the Zhou Imperial Family, and after strict selection and cruel training, they will become the Imperial Guards, and their only duty is to protect the safety of the patriarch, for which they can pay any price, even their lives.
Although the royal guards have no power, their status is indeed very high, because they represent the patriarch, and everyone in the royal family is in awe, so many affiliated families are willing to send their children to the royal guard training.
