Chapter 5: Confrontation
"Which one?" Xu Fu looked at Lu Chen.
"The one on the far left!"
"You'd better not lie to me, if something happens to me, you will follow in my footsteps, as for your sect and the like, I'll be afraid of it!" Xu Fu still had a smile on his face.
Lu Chen frowned, the roots of his teeth clenched together, this villain: "The one on the far right!" ”
"Alright, let's go!" Xu Fu nodded, put the rune paper back into his sleeve, and walked up the stone staircase.
"You said you would let me go, when!" Lu Chen's voice came from behind.
Xu Fu turned his head: "Soon, if nothing happens, I will be able to take you out to sea and to your sect!" ”
Then he ignored him and walked into the room with Mo Ting.
……
At night, Xu Fu called Mo Ting to his side, and there were many sticks made of copper and iron beside him.
"Young master, you call me!"
"You go to Xianyang Palace tonight!"
"What are you doing in Xianyang Palace?"
"Come here!"
Xu Fu leaned into Mo Ting's ear and explained the matter clearly.
Hearing this, Mo Ting's face was full of doubts, he had already seen many strange things about his young master, but every time he told it, it was very incomprehensible.
"Clear!"
"Hmm"
"Alright, remember to be careful!"
"Yes!"
Then Mo Ting, picking up the things beside Xu Fu, quickly left the Xu Mansion and headed towards Xianyang Palace.
"Whether it can be done this time or not depends on you!" Xu Fu took out the rune paper from his arms and whispered.
Thinking of what happened four years ago, a smile appeared on the corner of Xu Fu's mouth, if it weren't for that night, he wouldn't have been able to get in touch with another level of this world.
And Lu Chen, who was locked up in the dungeon, was not an ordinary person, but a qi refiner, also known as an immortal cultivator.
When Xu Fu came to this world five years ago, he was at a loss when he saw the era he was in, and he was at a loss when he thought that he would never be able to return to his hometown, but he was also more optimistic by nature, relying on his identity as a history teacher in his previous life, he was familiar with history books, and he had a clear and thorough understanding of major events in history.
That's why he dared to stop Qin Shi Huang's Luan, if you want to survive in this feudal dynasty, you must have power, not to mention that the Great Qin Dynasty is in turmoil at this time.
And his name was originally Xu Fu, and he happened to be in the Qin Dynasty, so he could quickly have power and win the love of Yingzheng, and the only way to tempt Qin Shi Huang to pursue immortality was to tempt Qin Shi Huang to pursue the path of immortality.
Compared with Xu Fu in the history books, although he himself doesn't know what the so-called elixir is, the refined thing is not the kind of heavy metal substance that harms the body, but a great tonic that does benefit the body.
After a year of hard work, he quickly won the love of Qin Shi Huang, and his status grew rapidly.
And four years ago, he and his guards went to the extremely remote outside the fortress to look for spiritual objects for refining pills, to put it bluntly, some more precious medicinal materials, but that night, Xu Fu himself was walking not far from the tent, and actually saw two rays of light fighting between heaven and earth.
Then the two rays of light landed on the ground, and Xu Fu walked over, and the two rays of light were actually two people, one of them was dead, and the other person was Lu Chen, that is, the person who was locked in the dungeon.
At that time, Xu Fu's heart was extremely shocked, this world seemed to be a little different from the world he thought, for example, the two people in front of him seemed to be fighting in the sky just now.
He originally wanted to save this Lu Chen, but he didn't expect that Lu Chen actually wanted to kill him.
And Lu Chen was seriously injured in the battle, and fainted before he could kill Xu Fu.
Xu Fu immediately called the guards and grabbed Lu Chen, only to put him in the dungeon.
And from this point on, a real door was completely opened to Xu Fu.
It was a world of cultivating immortals, and it turned out that there were indeed people cultivating immortals in the world.
And Lu Chen is a disciple from an overseas sect.
And that sect has to open the immortal gate every five years to recruit disciples, Lu Chen is one of the leaders, and this year is the fifth year, Lu Chen wants to lead the disciples who are looking outside into the sect.
This is also the reason why Xu Fu asked the King of Qin for five hundred boys and girls.
He wants to replace Lu Chen and enter the sect!
He had been planning this plan for four or five years.
Everything is for this time to go to sea, the reason why I went to sea last few times was to lose my temper to King Qin, and I really went to sea to find medicine for King Qin, so that King Qin believed in himself, and this time I would let myself go to sea with a large number of supplies.
……
On the second day, after the morning dynasty, the ministers did not leave, but stayed in the Xianyang Palace, because today at noon, it was the time for Xu Fu to realize the gambling contract.
Before noon, the ministers and Ying Zheng were already sitting in the pavilion not far from the stargazing platform.
But all the ministers were almost waiting for noon to come, watching Xu Fu's cold jokes.
Because the weather is clear and cloudless today, the weather is not generally good, compared with the weather in the past, today is more sunny.
This is also the reason why many ministers have decided that Xu Fu will undoubtedly be defeated.
Not only the ministers, but also Ying Zheng, looked at the slightly scorching sunlight in the sky, and shook their heads irrepressibly.
He didn't sigh and worry that Xu Fu would lose, but sighed that if Xu Fu really didn't have the so-called divine power to communicate with the heavens, then it was enough to show that Xu Fu was a liar.
This is not what he wants, he naturally hopes that Xu Fu can complete this bet, because he longs for immortality, so Yingzheng does not want Xu Fu to lose.
"Hehe, it seems that God helps me, and it is also the death date of this Xu Fu child today, the weather is so bright and transparent today, and he actually boasted about Haikou, and he wants to lead the thunder today, isn't this self-defeating, after a while, let's watch a good show!" One of the ministers who was with Li Si laughed, but it was just a malicious smile.
"Congratulations to Lord Li, today's bet with Xu Fu is undoubtedly lost, and Xu Fu will no longer be able to fight with Lord Li in the future, so you have to take care of me more!" Another minister similarly complimented.
"Huh!" Li Si laughed twice, quite happy.
In this kind of weather, whether Xu Fu still has the divine power to lead down the divine thunder is simply a fool's dream.
On the side, Xu Fu sat on the cushion very calmly, tasting the car water carefully, his face was indifferent, while the ministers beside him were obviously restless at the moment.
They chose Xu Fu, so they naturally offended Li Si and others, so Xu Fu's honor and disgrace are also their honor and disgrace.
One wins, one loses!
If Xu Fu is defeated today, the imperial court forces led by Xu Fu will quickly disappear under the suppression of the ministers led by Li Si and others, and the end will not be easy.
So at the moment, compared to Xu Fu, they cared more about winning or losing this time.
Xu Fu's gamble today is too big in their opinion, gambling on thousands of family fortunes, gambling on a position of power, and even more gambling on his life.
"Lord Xu!" A minister looked at Xu Fu and shouted cautiously.
"Huh?" Xu Fu opened his eyes.
The minister hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't know if Lord Xu is really sure to win this bet this time!" ”
"You don't believe me?" Xu Fu frowned.
"No, no!" Hearing this, the former was frightened and hurriedly shook his head.
In the feudal court, the status of officials is strictly hierarchical, not to mention that Xu Fu, as a celebrity around Yingzheng, can compete with Zhao Gao, although he is young, but the coercion is still intimidating.
"The adults laughed, I just care about the adults, and naturally I hope that the adults can win this competition, since the adults are completely sure, that's good, but I think too much!"
Originally, several other ministers also had this meaning, but after the former asked, they all chose to remain silent.
Instead, he complimented: "Congratulations to Lord Xu for winning this game and being able to go to sea to find an elixir for His Majesty!" ”
"Congratulations, sir!"
Xu Fu picked up the teacup in his hand, drank it all, and then put it on the table, and then said lightly: "Don't worry, I, Xu Fu, never do things that I am not sure of, you choose me, I will naturally be able to let you gain a foothold in the court!" ”
Seeing that Xu Fu directly exposed their meaning, several ministers suddenly looked a little embarrassed.
"Hehe, how about it, Lord Xu, do you already have the heart to retreat, if you are not sure, as long as you admit your mistake to me, this bet can be invalidated, otherwise, if this bet fails, it will not be as simple as admitting mistakes!" At this time, Li Si smiled at Xu Fu.
"I don't need Lord Li to care about this, since I Xu Mou made a gambling contract with Lord Li, I naturally have to abide by it, otherwise the world will not laugh at me Xu Fu." Xu Fu also smiled.
"Yes, it would be great if Lord Xu was confident, after all, they were all officials of Great Qin, and I also hoped in my heart that Lord Xu could lead down the divine thunder and prove this matter to us, in this case, Your Majesty's elixir will naturally be much more reliable." Lees said.
"Hehe, Lord Li, don't worry, Your Majesty's elixir of life, I will definitely go to sea to find it for Your Majesty!" Xu Fudao.
"That's good!" Lees nodded.
"Okay, okay, the two Aiqing don't say a word, you are also thinking about Daqin, and the widow understands it in his heart." Ying Zheng waved his hand at this time, stopping the mockery and sarcasm in Xu Fu and Li Si's words.
Then Ying Zheng looked at Xu Fu: "Xu Aiqing, you really have the confidence to deal with this matter, gods and thunder and other divine objects are not something that ordinary flesh and blood can resist, and now the gambling contract has not started, if you want to terminate it, the widow will also allow it." ”
Before Xu Fu could speak, Li Si did frown and said: "Your Majesty is too worried, Lord Xu, as a person who can convey the will of God, naturally has the blessing of the immortal gods, this kind of divine thunder should not be able to help Lord Xu, I think this time I am afraid that Weichen is going to lose!" ”
Xu Fu glanced at Li Si, and then chuckled, he naturally understood what Li Si meant, wasn't he afraid that he would listen to Ying Zheng's words and terminate this gambling contract?
If it is terminated, I am afraid that the matter of going to sea will change again.
"What Lord Li said is very much, Weichen is grateful for His Majesty's love, but as Lord Li said, Qu Shen Thunder can't help me."
"In that case, the widow is looking forward to Aiqing's performance next." Ying Zheng said with a smile.
"Yes!" Xu Fu nodded.
And Li Si looked at Xu Fu, who looked over, and both of them had a cold glint in their eyes that was difficult for others to detect.
