Chapter 351: Allied Battle
That's the trick!"
Dongfang Shuo looked at the wooden snake in front of him like a living thing, and said with a little excitement.
The sixth prince smiled, stretched out his hand and nodded, and the wooden snake entrenched itself and changed back into the original square wooden box.
"This is a congratulatory gift from my uncle to this king at the coronation ceremony of this king. As he spoke, the sixth prince motioned to Xia Chunxiao to put away the wooden box, "He expects that I can be like this wooden box, and my demeanor contains a thousand mysteries, profound meanings and mysteries. ”
Listening to his words quietly, Dongfang Shuo exhaled heavily.
Then, he looked at the Six Princes and said, "I want to seek the help of the Six Princes' mother's family." ”
The corners of the sixth prince's mouth hooked, and he said: "As long as you can help me do something, then this king will personally take you to see the old ancestor." ”
"Ancestor?"
"The thirty-first generation of the Thousand Machines Monk of the Longlin Empire is already one hundred and thirty years old. ”
"Are you over 130 years old? Can you help me get rid of the agency?"
"Although he is one hundred and thirty years old, he is just as old as sixty or seventy years old, and he can still move. And if you talk about the mechanism, if even the old man can't solve the mechanism, no one in the mother's family should be able to solve it. The Sixth Prince said.
Dongfang Shuo nodded thoughtfully.
Then, he said, "So, as long as I do something for you, you will take me to the one, but really?"
"A gentleman is hard to chase when he is a horse. The Sixth Prince said.
Dongfang Shuo smiled and breathed a sigh of relief, "So, what do you need me to do?"
"It's very simple, fight on behalf of my Longlin Empire. The Sixth Prince said.
Hearing this, Dongfang Shuo was obviously stunned for a moment.
"Do you want to go to war?"
He asked.
The sixth prince immediately shook his head and said, "If you don't fight, it's an alliance war." ”
"Alliance?" Dongfang Shuo wondered.
The sixth prince explained: "The Guihai Empire came down to fight and asked me to wait for a decisive battle in nine days. ”
Dongfang Shuo asked: "How to fight the enemy?"
"Naturally, it's you. The sixth prince smiled.
Dongfang Shuo hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "Then I only need a word, and I can make them throw away their armor and surrender with courtesy." ”
The sixth prince was stunned: "Really?"
"Of course, it's not true, it's just a casual statement. Dongfang Shuo rolled his eyes, and then Zhengse said, "However, you want me to go up, but I don't even know what the alliance war is." ”
"The Seven Kingdoms have an alliance, and the debate within the alliance is an alliance war. The six princes said, "The so-called alliance war, simply put, is that the two sides set up a game, each bet on a piece of land in the spiritual realm, and each sent three people to engage in a wheel battle, and the winner can get the land of the loser." ”
"I see. ”
Dongfang Shuo nodded in realization.
But then, he narrowed his eyes and asked, "But I still don't quite understand." Okay, how could the Guihai Empire decide to fight an alliance?"
Of course, he was tempting.
A few days ago, it was he who personally hung Xie Mingjie's head at the gate of Guihai City, and of course he knew very well why the Guihai Empire wanted to set an alliance battle.
But what he didn't expect was why the Guihai Empire would be the first to suspect the head of the Longlin Empire by such a coincidence?
And why did the six princes want Dongfang Shuo to fight so coincidentally?
At this moment, the sixth prince also squinted.
He said: "Xie Mingjie is dead, and his head is hung on Guihai City. ”
Dongfang Shuo looked puzzled: "Who is Xie Mingjie?"
The sixth prince said: "The second son of the King of the Mountain, a very famous martial arts genius in the Guihai Empire. ”
"Yes...... What kind of jie is dead, and does it have anything to do with the Guihai Empire's alliance war against us?" Dongfang Shuo then wondered.
Looking at his appearance, a deep meaning flashed inexplicably in the eyes of the six princes.
Immediately, the sixth prince said: "This king doesn't know. However, if this king guesses correctly, the meaning of the Guihai Empire is to suspect that the murderer is in my Longlin Empire. ”
"Huh, why do you doubt us?"
"Because the father-in-law of the king of the mountain is the sect master of the Taoist sect who has the art of Dayan. ”
"What?Dao Sect?" Dongfang Shuo suddenly looked shocked, but then he scratched his cheeks again and asked, "What is Dao Sect?"
The Sixth Prince looked at him, and after a pause, he looked up at the sky and said: "Dao Sect is one of the three major sects that surpass the royal family of the Seven Kingdoms, and there is no doubt that it is strong. ”
"What kind of realm is that?"
"After the refining period, it is the mixed yuan period, and after the mixed yuan period, it is the destiny period. It is rumored that such an existence can only open the sky, but this king has never seen it. The sixth prince said, "Of course, those kinds of characters are already out of the world, and they shouldn't care about the disputes between the mundane." But even if you don't look at the Supreme of the Heavenly Mandate Period, the three Mixed Yuan Stage giants who dominate the Dao Sect are no longer comparable to the Seven Kingdoms. And one of the giants of the Taoist Sect is the father-in-law of the king of the mountain. ”
After listening to this narration, Dongfang Shuo's face suddenly distorted.
Not to mention the Mandate of Heaven period, it is the mixed yuan period, which is enough to make Dongfang Shuo's heart tremble.
It is obvious that the Dao Sect must not be easily provoked, otherwise it will be a catastrophe for Dongfang Shuo.
After that, there really wasn't even a bit of ash left.
"But in that case, the Guihai Empire is backed by such a powerful force, aren't you afraid at all?" Dongfang Shuo asked.
The Sixth Prince smiled abruptly and said, "No matter what kind of state of mind a person like Dao Sect Sect Master Xiaoyaozi is. Even if he still cares about the mood of a son-in-law, he will never protect his shortcomings against morality. The three major forces check and balance each other, and the alliance of the seven countries has precisely achieved the delicate balance of the four legs of Southern Xuzhou. Xiaoyaozi will not make a move against the Seven Nations Alliance because of a little dispute within the Seven Nations Alliance. ”
"I see. Dongfang Shuo nodded, and then said, "But then again, the Dao Sect is strong, what does it have to do with the Guihai Empire's suspicion of us?"
"I just said that the Dao Sect has the art of Great Yan. ”
"What is the Great Yan Technique?"
The sixth prince said: "The technique of Dayan can measure the mandate of heaven, deduce the future, and spy on the past. ”
"Isn't this divine arithmetic?" Dongfang Shuo was stunned.
The sixth prince was puzzled: "Divine arithmetic?"
"No, it's nothing, but I probably understand what you're talking about. Dongfang Shuo nodded thoughtfully.
At this time, although his face was very calm, his heart had become a mess.
If the Dao Sect really has the technique of Dayan, and he sends Xie Mingjie's head back, wouldn't this create an opportunity for them to deduce the murderer?
Dongfang Shuo, who is well aware of the mysteries of divine arithmetic, naturally understands that as long as divine arithmetic reaches a certain level, not to mention a head, even if it is just a fragment of the deceased's clothes, he can easily deduce the scene before death.
"What are you afraid of?" the Sixth Prince suddenly asked.
Dongfang Shuo hooked the corners of his mouth, shook his head and said, "I'm not afraid, why do the six princes think so?"
"Delusion. ”
The Sixth Prince smiled and said, "However, the Guihai Empire did not attack immediately, but chose to launch an alliance against the Longlin Empire, there is only one possibility. That is, they still can't be completely sure who the murderer is. ”
"But it's also possible that they're there to gather evidence. Dongfang Shuo said, "Even if they calculate the murderer, if the evidence is insufficient, this is still a family's words after all, and it is not enough to convince the world." ”
These words made the six princes breathe a sigh of relief.
He looked at Dongfang Shuo and asked expressionlessly, "So, does Mr. Dongfang think that the murderer is in Longlin City?"
When questioned like this, the former looked at the latter.
After a moment of silence, Dongfang Shuo said: "Before the water comes out, everything is possible. ”
"That's a good point. ”
The sixth prince nodded, "However, as the deacon of the Spirit Domain of the Longlin Empire, I still hope that the murderer is not a person from my Longlin Empire." When the words fell, a deep meaning appeared in his eyes when he looked at Dongfang Shuo.
As soon as Dongfang Shuo heard his words, he immediately got up and said, "In this case, as long as I represent the empire, you will help me introduce your mother ancestor, and the agreement has been established, right?"
"Not bad. ”
The Six Princes agreed.
So, Dongfang Shuo didn't stay long and said goodbye.
After he was sent out of the courtyard by Xia Chunxiao, the six princes finally got up slowly.
"He must know something, and it seems that the king's judgment is not wrong. The sixth prince muttered.
Xia Chunxiao asked: "Does the sixth prince suspect that he is the murderer?"
"It could only be him. The Sixth Prince said, "I know the masters in Longlin City at a glance, but Dongfang Shuo is the only one who hides deeply, and I still can't see through him." However, Xie Mingjie is powerful, and in the records of going out of the city that day, there are only a handful of people who may kill Xie Mingjie. And who can quietly hang his head on the other party's city gate, except for Dongfang Shuo, this king can only think of one person. ”
"Lu Yanzhang. ”
"He was in town that day. The sixth prince said, "So, if the murderer is really in my Longlin City, then it can only be Dongfang Shuo." ”
"If it's really Dongfang Shuo, what should I do?"
"I can help, I now think it was a really good decision to keep him in the first place. The sixth prince said, "When one day, when I can't defeat the crown prince, he may be able to help me get rid of the crown prince." ”
Xia Chunxiao knelt down.
She said: "The crown prince has the heart of the powerful, and the six princes have the heart of the people, His Royal Highness will not be defeated." ”
The sixth prince smiled and said, "After all, the Tao is different, and the outcome is unpredictable." ”
......
And Dongfang Shuo, after leaving the courtyard of the Six Princes, went straight back to his courtyard.
At this time, in the courtyard, the food was already fragrant.
At about the same time, it was time for dinner again.
However, at this time, Dongfang Shuo had no intention of eating.
"The alliance war book of the Guihai Empire must have come for me, and he must have known that I was the murderer. Dongfang Shuo said, "But I just tried to say that they have no evidence, and the six princes did not refute me, indicating that it is very likely that this is the case." So as long as they don't find evidence, I'll be safe. ”
Thinking about it like this, he immediately thought of something.
With a flip of his hand, he took out a small golden bell from the ring.
