Chapter Seventy-Nine

There is the 31st of this month...... Amitabha.

……

------Off topic------

At this time, on the mountain road in front of the mountain, a figure was galloping, and Murong Zhen was running to the back mountain like crazy.

At this time, in the small cabins in the valley, the hanging curtains are windless.

After receiving Gong Yin, naturally he could not be allowed to enter the valley and grassland, and the elders' explanation was that the sect master was in retreat, and he would meet him when he left the gate. While hurriedly repairing the book, he ordered someone to pass it to the suzerain's wife who went down the mountain.

Gong Yin was politely accepted by everyone, of course he wore a mask, no one knew that face, and no one pursued it, and the people on the snowy mountain were not sure what the future sect master looked like. For so many years, I have only heard that this person was elected as the successor sect master, and he went down the mountain early, and the early group of elders on the snow-capped mountain have now changed almost to the lady.

There was no answer, sometimes it was a kind of acquiescence, the elders met and discussed, and decided that no matter what, they had to first bring in this "future sect master" who said the three important things about the snow mountain in one sentence, and then consider it in the long run.

The lack of an answer was also expected by everyone - since the sect master was in retreat, no one had heard his voice and seen him, and if it weren't for the fact that everyone was very confident in the sect master's martial arts, some people would even wonder if the sect master had killed his wife.

An elder deacon, on the boundary line by the green grass lake, shouted ten times to the hut, but the hut was silent and did not answer.

At that moment, someone hurriedly went to the valley first and informed the sect master, the sect master's wife had strictly ordered when she left, and no matter should disturb the sect master, but this matter was too big, and it involved the most important things of the three sects in the snow mountain, and no one dared to slack off.

Asking the suzerain to abdicate? The Nine Heavenly Sects had been established for hundreds of years, and they had never heard such an arrogant request.

The missing son of the suzerain? The sect master had a son many years ago, and he died not long after he was born, this is the secret of the snow-capped mountains, why did a son of the sect master suddenly appear?

Hearing the report of the disciples guarding the gate, the elders were also shocked and stunned - the successor sect leader Sang Tianxi had already gone down to the snow mountain to practice many years ago, in principle, it should be that the sect master went out this year and recalled him before the sect conference, why did he suddenly come back?

The sharp whistle continued, and the elders in white robes and linen clothes came out, not all of them were old men, in recent years, Xu Pingran has reused the young and promoted many young people.

Xu Pingran went down the mountain, naturally he would not take all the elders with him, there were about half of the inner and outer disciples on the mountain, and the ten elders who were in charge of the affairs of the snow mountain.

All the way to the back mountain, there are high and low buildings, there are tiled houses and grass huts, palaces and stone caves, which are the residences designed by the elders according to their own preferences.

The eagle flew sideways and backwards in a circle, and his posture was quite irritable, which was inversely proportional to his calmness.

Gong Yin was not impatient, like a sect master who had returned from training, casually holding his long sword, looking up at the sky goshawk circling.

Naturally, there were the rest of the people, and they immediately rushed to the back mountain and asked the elders, the sect master was not qualified to see them if they wanted.

After a hurried whistle, a large group of disciples rushed first, lined up in front of the mountain gate, vigilantly facing Gong Yin.

Gong Yin's short sentence made the two disciples of Snow Mountain retreat in panic.

"If you want to know, abdicate and change."

……

"If you encounter a different kind of army, remember, hold on for three days, and then go down the city wall of Emperor Ge."

Her heart throbbed. It took a long time to press his mind, and his eyes fell on the last line.

Who is it?

Could it be that it was Yingbai who met these orcs? Then this piece of information, which clearly reveals the enemy's arms and weapons, is invaluable.

She suddenly remembered the attack on Yingbai, who had come to report the attack on Yingbai, who had been sent to report at the beginning, and did not know much about what happened later, but he had said that strange noises and strange people suddenly appeared on the swamp.

A good letter, what are you doing with these inexplicable things? She didn't meet any of these prehistoric people.

"Straw Man"? "Sword Man"? "Beast species"?

The content of the letter is also very strange, Jing Hengbo has a feeling of watching "The Lord of the Rings".

Ordinary letterhead without features is small print with no personality, and the sender clearly does not want to reveal his identity.

This letter system is very unfamiliar, the source is unknown, it was picked up by the soldiers outside the gate, and the reason why it is guessed to be a flying pigeon is because the horn of the letter sticks a little bird fluff.

In the dark night, Xu Pingran and Zou Zheng were fighting in the swamp, and at the moment of negotiation, Jing Hengbo was in his tent and unfolded an urgent flying pigeon biography.

……

After a long time, he said, "Okay." ”

The battle on the swamp in the distance, splashed with red light and blood, Zou Zheng raised his head and silently stared at the dark night that seemed to never light up.

The woman beside her did not speak, and her snow-white skirt was raised, like a magnolia flower blown by the night wind.

He didn't know what Jing Hengbo would do to Gong Yin, but he could be sure that every word of this woman was not a threat, and he was even more sure that once Jing Hengbo entered the Emperor Song, he would definitely not be like this woman who was not familiar enough with Gong Yin, and if she didn't see the truth for a while, Queen Blackwater would recognize him as soon as possible and crush him to ashes.

Zou Zheng's heart was cold.

"You Zen is in me, I will protect your life, return your family, and still give you the honorable status of a national teacher or prince. If you insist on this throne, I will go to help Jing Hengbo. Xu Pingran smiled and looked at the fight over there, "I heard that you were quite affectionate with Jing Hengbo, and now you are marrying her behind her back and giving her death, presumably her hatred for you at this moment has also surpassed her original affection." You say, if she wins, will she let you continue to be a national teacher? ”

Zou Zheng was stunned in his heart, and quickly lowered his eyelids, for things that he was not sure to know, silence was the best answer.

Xu Pingran smiled faintly, "So, what about your health and the freedom of your whole family?" ”

"Is it enough?" Zou Zheng smiled, he gradually regained his composure, feeling that the relationship between this woman and Gong Yin was complicated, and it seemed that he still had something to ask for, so he simply mustered up the courage to refuse, "An aid will change the throne and the world, your ambition is enough." ”

So at this moment, she had no doubts in her heart, only faint certainty.

The needle was gone, and his initial counterattack just now showed the true power of Praruoxue, but it seemed very weak, which was also consistent with the information she obtained - Gong Yin was too consumed when she went down the mountain, and she still had the poison of her blood, and in recent years, the poison has attacked, and it is already the end of the strong crossbow.

"Isn't it enough?" Xu Pingran turned his face and looked at the "Gong Yin" in the moonlight, his face was pale, the same as the Gong Yin in her impression, she knew that he had no needles in his body, which was the same as her guess, when Gong Yin went down the mountain, he once pulled out the needle with the help of the killer who intercepted people, some people said that he succeeded, some people said that he did not succeed, but she asked her subordinates, whether there are faint yellow spots on Gong Yin's eyebrows or sideburns, this is the reaction of a needle in the body, the needle is in that position, it will inevitably hurt the kidney qi, and over time, it will appear a yellow dot on a faint part of the cheek, and the report is no.

"That's what you're asking me to abdicate?"

Zou Zheng slowly breathed deeply, reminding himself that he was Gong Yin.

"If this army successfully crosses the swamp, it just so happens that Jing Hengbo has also reached the foot of Emperor Song City at this time, attacking from both sides," she said lightly, "You know how it ends." ”

"You ......" Zou Zheng said in a hoarse voice, wanting to ask, but didn't dare to ask.

"This is Jing Hengbo's army, led by Yingbai." The emotionless voice of the woman behind him made him pale again, "Jing Hengbo and Pei Shu led the army all the way south, vigorously, attracting everyone's attention, but no one knows that her real killer is here." ”

He stared at the place of battle, vaguely saw the soldiers in thin armor, saw the strange "people" rolling around in the swamp, and saw some figures in the jungle in the dark, but the speed and movement of the figures did not look like human beings at all...... He quietly shuddered again.

If it is not stopped, if this army really crosses this swamp, then as long as it takes half a day, it can go straight to Xuanning Gate, and Xuanning Gate has always been the weakest defense because of its proximity to this swamp, then, the Emperor Song City Wall, which is known as the strongest in the Great Wilderness, is impregnable, and has never been shaken by the rebellion of previous dynasties, will be broken in an instant!

He gritted his teeth to stop himself from trembling, so that the other party would not discover his abnormality.

But at this moment, there is clearly a fierce battle here!

When can you cross a swamp? When will there be a battle here? This is behind the Emperor Song, which is only a hundred miles away from the Emperor Song! This is the only place around Emperor Ge that is not defended without any defense, because this swamp that no one can cross!

Suddenly, a layer of cold sweat broke out on his back, and he was even more frightened than being captive by this woman just now.

He froze - this is the battlefield.

In the middle of the night, before he felt that he was going to freeze into an iceman, he saw the swamp, but the swamp at this moment was not at all the desolate and empty of the past, on the swamp and on both sides of the swamp, human figures flickered, swords rang out, human voices shouted, the trees were brushing and pulling, and from time to time there were all kinds of long screams.

To the west, there is the uninhabited swamp behind the Emperor Song......

Zou Zheng didn't know where she planned to take herself, so she had to go with the flow, and saw her out of the palace in the sound of the wind, passed the imperial song, and went from the Xuanning Gate, which was the most remote in the imperial song, and went all the way to the west.

There was no killer, but there was a wind blowing, and his body was cold, Zou Zheng opened his eyes, and saw the roof of the main hall flashing quickly under his feet, the glazed tiles were shining and cold under the moon, and countless guards shouted to catch up, and the palace lights were lit one after another, and the speed of the lights and the chase was not as fast as the woman's rambling steps. She seemed to be just a slight step, and the long skirt was still in everyone's field of vision like snow, and the person had already left the palace gate.

Without waiting for Zou Zheng to resist, as soon as she raised her hand, Zou Zheng suddenly came to her hand, and the fingers that grabbed him were as cold as snow stones, no need to struggle and know that it was irresistible, Zou Zheng sighed in his heart, closed his eyes and waited for death.

The woman in white seemed to smile, her expression was already expected, and her voice was slightly sneering, "What kind of death is also divided." ”

His eyes were as bright as needles, and he said coldly: "Then I'd rather die!" ”

Zou Zheng Huo Ran opened his eyes.

Then I heard the woman say in a voice that was not cold, but in fact had no human emotions: "You will not be my opponent now." If you want to live, abdicate and exchange. ”

He lowered his eyes, seemingly indifferent, but in fact desperate.

He wanted to step back, to stab the dagger out of the cover of the futon, but the closer the other party came in, the more unable he could move, and the air on all sides seemed to turn into ice glue, cold and sticky, shackling all movements.

It's not that the appearance is similar, but the similar frosty and cold demeanor and temperament.

Zou Zheng was suffocated for a moment, because he suddenly remembered Gong Yin.

The heavy four fan screens suddenly flew up like a pear blossom, and then the woman's surging and clear face appeared in front of him.

Although this request is for Gong Yin, he is Gong Yin.

He was quite calm, and he could still think at the moment, thinking that since the other party had such ability, he could kill him in his dream, and since he didn't kill, he naturally had other requirements.

Zou Zheng clenched the dagger in the quilt and wanted to shout, but he knew in his heart that since the other party could come in silently, the guards outside would definitely not be useful.

The woman suddenly got up slowly and walked towards him, her snow-white dress several feet long and shining like moonlight, and she walked like a real queen.

Through the wisps of night wind in the small hole, he only felt chills all over his body.

He looked up, and on the flat gold embroidered dragon screen opposite, the dragon's burning eyes, at some point, had turned into two small holes.

While being cold and arrogant, he quietly pulled the mechanism, but found that the mechanism was cold and hard and could no longer be triggered.

He has studied Gong Yin for so long, and he knows very well what the national teacher will be in and how he will react.

He didn't answer, raised his chin slightly, and learned from Gong Yin's cold gaze.

Zou Zheng thought quickly in his heart, the woman in front of him clearly recognized the national teacher, and her tone was familiar, but she revealed information that she hadn't seen for a long time, and it was difficult to determine friend or foe. But no matter what, he has to play Gong Yin to the end.

The woman seemed to let out a soft "huh", and then said: "Gong Yin, they all say that you are weak, and you really can't continue." ”

Zou Zheng only felt that his fingers seemed to be stabbed by an ice sword, and the cold pain was in his bones, he subconsciously wanted to shrink, but somehow in his body, but because of this coldness, suddenly a cold breath passed through his heart and lungs, straight to his fingers, his fingers, raised up without obeying the call, "snap" a slight sound, his fingers hurt, his body shook slightly, and there were snowflakes in front of him flashing.

"Huh." There was a slight sound.

On the other side of the screen, so far away, the woman seemed to be able to see clearly, and her hand was raised slightly.

Zou Zheng didn't have time to think, so he reached out and pressed the handle next to the bed, his dragon bed naturally had a tunnel to protect his escape.

But whoever it was, it was enough to make him nervous - the guards outside his dormitory were like iron buckets, layers of guards, and even his roof was full, how did this woman get in?

For a moment, he thought it was Jing Hengbo coming, which made him break out in a cold sweat, and then he felt that something was wrong, although he was far away, he could still see that this person was sitting too upright and straight, his chin was slightly raised, and his hands were folded on his skirt, which was a noble and arrogant and cold posture, which seemed to be not quite the same as the lazy and gorgeous black water queen in the legend.

He was sure it was a man, and it should be a woman, because the snow-white skirt was extraordinarily wide, and it spread like a cloud over the jade steps, and only a woman would wear such a cumbersome dress.

Zou Zheng sat stiffly on the bed, staring at the person who was faintly sitting on the throne behind the screen.
