36.Destruction (6)
Shi Yuanji silently returned to the Flowing Frost Mansion, the sense of urgency in his heart became heavier and heavier, and he couldn't wait to reach the fourth layer of the Enlightenment Dragon Machine Technique immediately.
"Be calm and don't let my emotions dictate my thinking. ”
He admonished himself in his heart, suppressing his somewhat disordered breathing and continuing his dragon pattern research.
"The dragon pattern that can be used in Shuozhen Heaven and Pangu Heaven just shows that the dragon pattern is related to the origin of the Taixu universe. ”
"If I can study a set of universal dragon patterns, the people at the bottom can even learn the dragon patterns on their own, and the literacy of the Dragon Pattern Academy will be much easier. ”
Of course, most importantly, he needs the means to restrain the gods. The battle in Tianqi Mountain was still fresh in his memory, and he would not forget that the Heavenly Wolf easily subdued him, and he did it by manipulating Jiang Renyun's body.
He wouldn't forget the wolf's ridicule of Wangshu, who only wielded a scythe.
"Dragon pattern, only the dragon pattern is the truth of this world!"
......
"What's going on? How was Yuan Rang assassinated? Who did it?"
At Gui Yihu's house, King Yan and everyone gathered again. At this meeting, King Yan roared angrily at everyone.
Everyone looked at each other and was speechless for a while.
King Yan looked around and roared angrily, "What's the matter? No one admits it? Don't you dare to admit what you've done?"
A royal family boldly asked suspiciously: "King Yan, didn't you send someone to kill him?"
After the royal family finished speaking, Gui Yihu immediately sensed the problem, he looked for Dugu Xin's figure in horror, and suddenly felt that this child's mind was a little terrifying.
But Dugu Xin didn't come at all, only Dugu Long, the fool, sat in the banquet, looking at the angry King Yan in a daze.
"I haven't sent someone to kill him yet!" The corners of Yan Wang's eyes jumped unconsciously, and he had a premonition of a crisis.
Dugu Long was stunned and asked, "Wouldn't that be a good thing? Someone killed him, and we don't need to do it." ”
King Yan was angry, and was trying to find a punching bag, when he saw Dugulong's appearance, he suddenly roared:
"You idiot! Even if Yuan Rang wasn't killed by me, do you think that the Overlapping Hou wouldn't suspect me?"
"This is because some people are afraid that the relationship between the Hou and us is not bad enough, so they have to let us fight to the death with him. ”
Everyone present finally woke up, only to feel that the matter was as deep as the sea.
Dugulong said suspiciously: "We and the Hou of the Overlap are originally in a life-and-death relationship, why do we have to kill each other, and someone to help, isn't it good?"
Gui Yihu said angrily: "Then Lord Dugu, tell me, how does this person who assassinated Yuan Rang want to help us?"
"Could it be that he was kind enough to kill Yuan Rang, so that we don't have to contribute?"
Dugulong was completely stunned: "Then who killed Yuan Rang?"
When some royal families heard this, they had already guessed the matter, and looked at King Yan with an uneasy expression, hoping that he could come up with an idea.
King Yan closed his eyes and laughed angrily: "Hehe, Dugu Xin is really calculating, eating this house and going to eat that one, I really count me to death." ”
"Dugu is also a good calculating, worthy of being the head of the Dugu family, a good trick to cross the river and tear down the bridge to eat at both ends, really treat us as monkeys!"
Everyone had already understood King Yan's extraneous voice, and they all looked at Dugu Long with ill will.
"The Yuan family is the last in the Eight Pillars Kingdom, and Yuan Rang is just a small character, who can have an enmity with him?"
"Eighty percent of people are informing, and this kind of thing happens. ”
"Dugulong, what do you Dugu family want to do? Why didn't Dugu Xin come today?"
Dugulong felt bad, and explained in a panic: "I don't know this, he ...... today"
In fact, Dugulong is not unaware, he has always felt that Duguxin is too showy, provoking him to have no majesty in front of everyone. Dugu believes that he doesn't come here, which is exactly what he wants.
But who would have thought that Yuan Rang was assassinated, but it was not King Yan who attacked, and their Dugu family was suddenly pushed to the forefront, and he himself became the target of public criticism.
"Impossible, impossible, our head ......"
He suddenly thought of Dugu Yong's strange behavior in the past few days, and he felt more and more panicked, and cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
And King Yan looked at him with cold eyes, and the killing intent appeared frequently, making him tremble and almost want to leave.
Dugu was pacing depressedly in his own mansion, looking extremely uneasy.
On his desk was a letter from a newcomer from Hanoi, describing the situation in Hanoi, which was the source of his trouble.
The claws wreaked havoc in Hanoi, breaking the long-standing peace of Hanoi, leaving Hanoi bleeding for thousands of miles and corpses everywhere.
He had always been worried about Shi Yuanji's attitude towards Hanoi, after all, the wreaking havoc of the claws was the best excuse for the beggar army to stay in Hanoi.
And using this to purge the forces of the Eight Pillars Kingdom in Hanoi is even better for Shi Yuanji and the Emperor of the Mandate of Heaven.
Fortunately, Shi Yuanji sent Dugu Ming to send the paper bag and Lei Qinggang samples, which conveyed his attitude and made Dugu Ming feel a lot more at ease.
At the same time, he also began to shake his position, and was considering whether to break with King Yan, anyway, as long as he was attached to the Hou of the Overlap, he could also maintain the status of the Eight Pillars Kingdom, and if he lost the privilege of Chengyun Pavilion, what would he gain?
But now things have changed, Yuan Rang was assassinated, although he was half dead, but it also made Dugu Yong's heart tremble.
He hadn't had time to show favor to the coincided hou, but such a thing happened, what would the coincidently marquis think of the Dugu family? This is unpredictable.
While he was meditating, Dugu Xin swaggered in.
He Shi Li saw Dugu Ling, but his eyes seemed a little excited, which made Dugu Ling a little confused.
"The younger generation heard that there was a letter at home, I wonder if something big happened at home?"
Dugu Yan looked at Dugu Xin confidently and said nothing. Facing Dugu Yong's gaze, Dugu Xin smiled and looked back, without any sense of emptiness.
Dugu Ling couldn't help but ask: "Don't worry about the affairs of the family." Let me ask you, is it the Yuan Rang that you sent someone to kill?"
Dugu Xin said confidently: "To be exact, it was His Majesty who asked me to do it, and I did it myself." ”
Dugu was startled, looking at Dugu Xin's confident expression, a feeling of uneasiness gradually rose in his heart.
"When, when did you take refuge in the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny?"
"Do you feel like your wings are stiff and you're starting to want to take it all in?"
"Aren't you afraid of being calculated by the Emperor of Heavenly Destiny and becoming a knife in his hand?"
Dugu Xin sneered and said disdainfully: "Family master, I really want to know, why do you say such boring words?"
"People in this world are all respectful and orderly, the Emperor of the Mandate of Heaven is strategizing, holding a person like Shi Yuanji in his hand, why not be his sword?"
"To be someone else's knife is to make the best one, doesn't the head of the family agree with this sentence?"
Dugu sighed, and his heart was sad. In the past, he always felt that he could still make Dugu's family prosperous, but now he suddenly felt that the decline of the Eight Pillars Kingdom was irretrievable.
Dugu Xin is the future heir he identifies, but his performance is too disappointing for Dugu Shen.
"Ashin, I'm disappointed. It's okay if you want to be someone else's knife, but you always have to look at the person holding the knife and make a choice. ”
"I don't deny that the little emperor has the ability, but how do you know that the coincidence-hou is not the guy who really holds the knife?"
Dugu Xin sneered dryly, and said disdainfully: "Just that waste? When I first entered the school, I provoked him in Chengyun Pavilion, and he didn't dare to put a fart, and he dared to take a knife?"
"If His Majesty hadn't supported him, would he have been able to create a beggar army even if he was a coward? ”
When Dugu heard this, his heart was like ashes, and he didn't want to argue with him anymore.
"Master, what's going on at home? Now there are carrier pigeons flying in almost every day, what is going on?"
Dugu Xin was a little impatient and no longer pretended to be polite.
Dugu Yu threw all the letters on the desk towards Dugu Xin, stood up expressionlessly, and was about to walk out of the door.
Dugu Xin was confused by the letters fluttering like snowflakes, both surprised and angry, he didn't understand that he had done something beneficial to the Dugu family, why was the head of the family indifferent?
"Family master, where are you going? Now that the situation is turbulent, you are doing so nothing, are you making the future of the Dugu family a child's play?"
He said with some annoyance.
Looking at Dugu Xin's arrogant appearance, the corners of Dugu Yuan's mouth curled, and he said patiently and helplessly: "Ashin, you are the next generation heir of our Dugu family, this is known to everyone." ”
"There is no other reason, because among the younger generation, there is no better descendant than you. ”
"You run for the family, I can understand that you have good intentions. As the head of the house, I'll teach you one more trick, and you must remember it. ”
You are an old immortal, and you are worthy of teaching me, Dugu Xin said disdainfully in his heart.
Although I am very unconvinced, I still have to have a compliment on my face. Dugu Xin reluctantly gave up his hand and waited for Dugu Yong's teachings.
Dugu Yan sighed and said bitterly: "Ashin, do you know the Nian Pig? This is the name of the common people, do you know what it means?"
This sentence stunned Dugu Xin.
"New Year's pigs are piglets raised in the spring, and when they are raised for the New Year, they are killed and eaten for meat. ”
"Generally, the best meat should be divided and given to the old man to show filial piety, to the child, so that the child can grow up quickly. ”
Dugu Xin listened to the clouds, and only felt that there was something in the words, but he didn't understand it very well, and he only felt that he was not very comfortable in his heart.
After Dugu Yu finished speaking, he turned around silently and was about to leave. Dugu Xin hurriedly stopped him and said anxiously:
"Master, I'm here to advise you. Now that His Majesty has mastered the beggar army, the sky is in full swing, and the Eight Pillars Country cannot hit a stone. Our Dugu family might as well take refuge with him and get rid of King Yan. ”
"I have followed His Majesty's order to assassinate Yuan Rang, this nomination has been accepted, you can't be confused!"
Dugu Yi looked at Dugu Xin with pity as if he was looking at a fool, shook his head invisibly, and left the room quickly.
