Chapter 214: You Can't Save It! (5300)
"To protect myself, of course."
Wu Liang said with a smile.
"Self-preservation?"
Everyone still didn't fully understand Wu Liang's words.
Wu Liang smiled and said: "Wen Renzhao gave us such an order overnight, which has broken our previous idea of 'not listening, not asking, and not care', and it is probably impossible for us to survive these days without incident." ”
"Although I haven't figured out the true intentions of Wen Renzhao's move at the moment, there are only three results in this matter:"
"First, Wen Renzhao didn't lie to us, the people we killed were indeed heretics in the eyes of Shou Cao Dao, that is, ordinary people who were not bewitched by Shou Cao Dao, I can't do this kind of thing, otherwise I will be uneasy in the future;"
"Second, Wen Renzhao deceived us, the person we killed was actually a believer in Shou Cao Dao, if this is the case, even if we were not captured and executed by Shou Cao Dao, we were also taken by Wen Ren Zhao, and we had to be at her mercy from now on;"
"Thirdly, Wen Renzhao is actually testing us, and I can vaguely hear from her words that she has a lot of dissatisfaction in her heart, whether it is what Shou Cao Dao has done or what the Great Sage Heavenly Master has done, that is to say, she wants to use this matter to test us, find out what we think of Shou Cao Dao, and whether we are acting on the merits...... If this is the case, I should have disobeyed her orders before, and in this way, I would have passed her test and truly become her 'confidant'. ”
"What do you think I should do?"
Speaking of this, Wu Liang turned his head to look at everyone and asked.
"Speaking of which, you should choose the third path, but as you said just now, you haven't figured out the true intentions of Wen Renzhao, so you have to take some risks in this choice."
Bai Jingjing said with a deep groan.
"That's just one of the reasons."
Wu Liang shook his head with a smile and continued, "Actually, even if I know that Wen Renzhao is testing us, I will not accept her test, let alone pass her test, because once we pass her test, it means that we choose to take sides, she will immediately treat us as henchmen, and then follow her plan to tell us to do something more dangerous, which is not in our interests, after all, although we were forced to enter the city, we only intend to be a passer-by from the situation, not anyone's pawns, Chess pieces can become discarded at any time. ”
"I see, it's still ...... Childe thinks clearly"
Everyone finally understood Wu Liang's analysis and nodded one after another.
"So now, what exactly is Childe going to do?"
Yu Ji stroked his beard and pondered for a moment, then returned to the most fundamental question.
"Now that we have been forced to play, we may not be able to stay out of the situation now, so we have to be a chess player who follows the trend."
Wu Liang smiled and said confidently, "People, we must not be killed, no matter what the identity of this family is, as long as we move, we will fall into passivity, so I want to throw this question out, whether it is thrown back into the hands of Wen Renzhao, or into the hands of the Great Sage Heavenly Master, in short, we will not accept this question, if Wen Renzhao and the Great Sage Heavenly Master really have their own thoughts, we will also make their minds on the bright side, intensify the contradictions between them, and muddy this seemingly calm lake, In this way, you can continue to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”
……
Soon after.
Wu Liang and others have already arrived in front of the main altar of "Shou Cao Dao".
It is also strange to say that they did not even encounter a group of patrolling people along the way, and it was not until they reached the front of the main altar that they saw about twenty guards guarding the main altar at the gate.
Wu Liang stood in the distance and glanced at it, and then led the people of the Hingren Army to walk towards the gate of the main altar.
"Stop! Who's coming? ”
The guards soon spotted them, and immediately raised their weapons in their hands and asked aloud.
"Big brothers, your own people."
Wu Liang motioned for everyone in the Wanren Army to stop for the time being, and only took Dian Wei to step forward, and greeted those guards with a smile on his face, "The eldest brother is still standing guard here in the middle of the night, conscientious and meticulous, and his loyalty to the Heavenly Master is really heaven and earth, and the younger brother admires it." ”
"Nonsense!"
The leading guard didn't eat him, and then picked up a torch and took a picture of Wu Liang's side, and then asked with a serious and vigilant face, "Who are you, why haven't I seen you?" ”
"It's reasonable that the eldest brother hasn't seen us, it's not a secret, today we came to the city with the right protector, and when it was close to noon, we also entered the main altar with the right protector to see the heavenly master, and now we are working under her."
Wu Liang said with a smile.
"Are you the deserters from the North Sea?"
The leading guard had indeed heard about this, and finally relaxed his vigilance, and asked with some disdain.
"Exactly, it's a gift to the eldest brother."
Wu Liang arched his hand and smiled.
"There is no need to see the ceremony, the Heavenly Master has issued a ban, no one is allowed to go out and walk around at will, although you are new to the world, you should also abide by the rules set by the Heavenly Master, otherwise you will not only be punished for yourself, even the right protector may be blamed by the Heavenly Master because of you!"
The leading guard shouted again, "But I remember that you are a first-time offender, for the sake of the face of the right protector, I will not pursue it this time, if you are interested, you can quickly return to your residence, and you must not wander around again!" ”
"Big brother doesn't know, we don't come out late at night to hang out, but to have official business."
Wu Liang still had a smile on his face, leaned closer and took out a small piece of broken gold and stuffed it into the hands of the leading guard, and then lowered his voice and said, "This is the little brother's heart, please be sure to laugh at the eldest brother, don't dare to hide the eldest brother, the younger brother went out late at night this time is actually on the order of the right protector to eradicate heresy, how can I not know the road in the city when I first arrived, and I can't figure out the direction in the middle of the night, and I walked to the main altar, I don't know if the eldest brother is familiar with the roads in the city, please give the younger brother some guidance, If the younger brother has done something and is appreciated by the right protector, he will definitely give a thank you gift to the eldest brother? ”
"Oh?"
The leading guard should be the first time to accept a bribe, the gold was stunned for a moment, and then nervously and pleasantly surprised to check the piece of broken gold in his hand, and even put it in his mouth and took a bite lightly, and then quickly stuffed it into his arms, lowered his voice and smiled sneakily at Wu Liang, "Brother is so polite, why don't you just ask for directions, a trivial matter, you just ask." ”
"Then thank you, big brother......"
Wu Liang resolutely recounted the address given by Wen Renzhao.
"Isn't this a coincidence, brother, I live in that area, and I will send someone to take you there...... Wait! ”
After listening to the address, the leading guard patted his chest and smiled, but only halfway through the words, his face changed again, and he looked at Wu Liang suspiciously, "Brother, are you mistaken, as far as I know, the address you said seems to be the house of Jin Lichang, Jin Lichang is the backbone of the Heavenly Master, when Shou Cao Dao first came to Qiancheng County, Jin Lichang tried his best to help the Heavenly Master preach, and the Heavenly Master once praised him, how could he be a heretic?" ”
Really!
Wen Renzhao actually deceived Wu Liang, she actually coaxed Wu Liang to lead someone to kill a lieutenant chief, and she was the backbone of the sect who was deeply valued by the Great Sage Heavenly Master.
This woman really didn't have any good intentions!
"Impossible, right? I've checked this address several times, and it's impossible to get it wrong! ”
Wu Liang also said with a "surprised" face.
"That is, the right protector must have made a mistake, and just now I said that the heretics in the city have almost been cleared, how can the right protector send someone to clear it again...... It must be a mistake, it must be, Jin Lichang can never be a heretic, brother, you must not do it until this matter is clarified, otherwise I am afraid that it will never be recovered! ”
The leading guard said with great certainty.
"This ......"
Wu Liang said with a look of embarrassment, "But this is an order from the right protector himself, I really don't dare to disobey the order, how can this be good?" Big brother can have a solution? ”
As he spoke, Wu Liang stuffed a small piece of broken gold into the hand of the leading guard, and looked at him with a pleading expression.
"Disobedience is also a capital offense...... I'm afraid that only the Heavenly Master can administer justice for you, you wait here for a while, I'll go in and take a look, if the Heavenly Master hasn't rested, I will report this matter to the Heavenly Master to see if he knows about it! ”
For the sake of gold, the leading guard pondered for a moment and finally spoke.
"The life of the little brother is all pinned on the eldest brother, as long as the eldest brother can save the younger brother, the younger brother will be grateful in the future."
Wu Liang hurriedly said.
"It's a trivial matter, you wait first."
As he spoke, the leading guard walked briskly towards the main altar.
The whole process was much simpler than Wu Liang imagined, originally he thought that it would take some weeks to spread the news to the "Great Sage Heavenly Master", but in the end he still underestimated the power of gold.
……
Meanwhile.
"What the hell is this person doing, how did he come to the main altar in circles?"
Wen Renzhao's personal guard hid in the dark and watched Wu Liang's actions, with an expression of incomprehension and confusion on his face.
In fact, when Wu Liang and the others suddenly turned around and walked in a circle to the north of the city, he was already a little confused.
However, his task is to observe secretly, and it is really inconvenient to come up and ask.
And before he figured out the intentions of Wu Liang and the others, he felt that there was no need to send someone back to report to Wen Renzhao, so he had to continue to follow behind, wanting to find out what Wu Liang and the others wanted to do.
And then.
It's been delayed until now.
It was also now that the personal guard finally realized something, and hurriedly called one of the guards over and said, "You immediately go back to the mansion to see the son-in-law, tell her the whereabouts of this group of people after leaving the mansion in detail, see what instructions the son-in-law has, and then come back quickly to report to me." ”
"Yes!"
The guard answered, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
……
Inside the Wenren Mansion.
"What did you say?!"
After listening to the guard's report, Wen Renzhao stood up with a "whoosh" like a spring, with an unbelievable expression on his pretty face.
"This person did go to the main altar, and his subordinates saw him say something to the main altar guard, and the leading guard walked into the main altar quickly, as if he wanted to report something important to the heavenly master."
The guard arched his hand.
"Bang!"
Wen Renzhao slapped a jade hand on the desk hard, his eyes were about to split, his teeth were clucking, and he scolded loudly as if he was chewing Wu Liang's bones raw: "Shameless! Bummer! Traitor! Wolf's heart and dog's lungs! I'm also blind, and I would have the heart to attract this kind of life! If this man falls into my hands again, I will surely tear this shameless man to pieces! ”
“……”
The guards had never seen such a big fire in Renzhao, so they were so frightened that they hurriedly lowered their heads, not even daring to speak out, for fear of being angry if they were not careful.
Half an hour later.
"You go and call our people back, you don't have to keep watching!"
Wen Renzhao didn't know how many breaths he had taken before he forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and said to the guard, "If I am really betrayed by this person, it won't be long before the Heavenly Master will send someone to the mansion to confront me face to face, and you will go with me." ”
Although she didn't expect Wu Liang to sell her so easily, she quickly thought of a way to deal with it, but she wouldn't be upset because of this matter.
But when the Great Sage Heavenly Master and the Left Protector get such an opportunity, I'm afraid they will have to put pressure on her and the Wen family again......
It's all to blame on that traitor!
I have never seen such a scoundrel since I heard that people have grown so big!
……
Half an hour later.
There were already many people standing in the originally empty Heavenly Master Hall, and these people could be divided into three groups.
The first group was the people of the Qiangren army, and there were about a dozen people.
Although Bai Jingjing is also among them, but this time Wu Liang has asked her to change into men's clothes in advance, and she has also painted a lot of wall ash on her face, as long as she doesn't speak in the crowd, it is difficult for anyone to find that there is such a woman among them, and she is also a beauty;
The second group is the people from Wenrenfu, a total of about 20 people.
Wen Renzhao stood at the front, and at this moment he was constantly slashing at Wu Liang with a pair of beautiful eyes, if his eyes could kill people, Wu Liang would have been executed by her Ling Chi at this moment;
The rest were her guards, but according to the rules of the Heavenly Master Palace, all their weapons were left outside the hall.
The third group is the people of Shou Cao Dao.
Nearly 100 people were armed with weapons, not only blocking the exit of the Heavenly Master Palace, but also guarding the Great Sage Heavenly Master Sun Bao, who was sitting on the main seat, while the left protector Huang Jing was still standing beside him.
Arguably.
In this small Heavenly Master Palace, the Great Sage Heavenly Master occupies the absolute initiative.
"Zhao Protector, I need an explanation on this matter."
"Great Sage Heavenly Master" Sun Bao had already ordered Wu Liang to tell this matter from beginning to end again, and then looked at Wen Renzhao and said with a smile.
"If you return to the Heavenly Master, this is just a test for me for this person."
"In fact, I have been sending people to follow them secretly, and if they do do do it, they will pass my test, and my guards will immediately appear to stop them, and they will never hurt Jin Lichang's life."
Wen Renzhao glanced at Wu Liang again, and then slapped a rake in an indifferent tone, "I just didn't expect that this person would disobey orders by such means, this one thing alone is enough to judge, this person is a two-faced person with three swords, and he definitely can't be used by my Shou Cao Dao, the Heavenly Master should get rid of this person as soon as possible, otherwise there will be endless disasters!" ”
"In this way, you have failed the hard work of the Zhao Protector?"
Hearing this, Sun Bao turned back to look at Wu Liang again.
"Heavenly Master, if it weren't for the luck of his subordinates who inadvertently knew the identity of Jin Lichang before he started, Jin Lichang would probably be in danger, and at that time, the right protector probably wouldn't say anything about the test, but would only pick himself cleaner, and his subordinates would probably still be unable to escape death."
Wu Liang arched his hand at Sun Bao, and then looked directly at Wen Renzhao's beautiful eyes full of hatred, and said, "Right Protector, I have no grievances with you, and my loyalty to the Heavenly Master is even more evident, why do you have to treat me to death and then hurry up?" There is also Jin Lichang, I heard that he is a backbone who is deeply loved by the Heavenly Master, you want to harm me and Jin Lichang, whether you are a useful person to the Heavenly Master, you have to harm all over again, I want to ask, what are your intentions? ”
"Tell the truth!"
Wen Renzhao suddenly lost his temper again, and immediately reprimanded angrily, "Since I secretly sent guards to follow you, I can naturally ensure that Jinli is safe and sound, how can I harm him, I also want to ask, what is your intention to provoke the relationship between me and the Heavenly Master this time?" ”
"Right Protector, you are too confident, if my people make a move, Jin Lichang will definitely die!"
Wu Liang sneered.
"Hehe, just by your little people?"
Wen Renzhao pursed his lips disdainfully.
"Dian Wei, prove it to the right protector!"
Wu Liang immediately stopped talking to her and drank in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
Dian Wei answered, and he flew out, killing Wen Renzhao like an angry brown bear.
"You?!"
Wen Renzhao really didn't expect that Wu Liang's people would dare to do something directly to her, but when she saw that only Dian Wei stepped forward, she didn't panic at all, her eyes were cold, "In front of the Heavenly Master, you dare to be rude to this Dharma Protector, take it down for me!" ”
"Yes!"
Twenty or so Wenren Mansion guards immediately greeted Dian Wei, how could they let him approach Wenren Zhao easily?
But.
Wen Renzhao's guards had no weapons at the moment, so they could only face Dian Wei with their bare hands.
Of course.
Dian Wei was also bare-handed, and the sapper shovels of the Hsmiling Army were also left outside.
In the same way, Wu Liang will order Dian Wei to fight with him, in this case, Dian Wei will not even suffer a little skin injury, and he can easily solve these rotten sweet potato stinky bird eggs.
At the same time, he also taught the "Great Sage Heavenly Master" to see what kind of strength their group of "deserters" had, so that the "Great Sage Heavenly Master" would definitely be impressed by them and should consider how to place them for their own use.
Moreover, the relationship between the two is not harmonious, and the "Great Sage Heavenly Master" should also be happy to see someone "teach" him.
In this way, Wu Liang and the others once again gained a firm foothold in Shou Cao Dao, and it was easier to hold on until Boss Cao's army came to kill.
Anyway, it's definitely better than following Wen Renzhao and going on adventures for her.
After all, everything that is known is done in the dark, and the "Great Sage Heavenly Master" is in the light, and it is clear who is more stable and safe to follow.
“……”
Seeing this scene, Sun Bao, the "Great Sage Heavenly Master", and Huang Jing, the "Left Protector", looked at each other and smiled, and no one stopped them, with a posture that they had nothing to do with themselves.
Thereupon.
"Ahh
"Oh!"
"Shhh
"Alas!"
"Whew!"
“……”
After a not too intense, basically one-sided fight, the Wenren Mansion guards had all fallen to the ground and groaned in pain.
Dian Wei flashed in front of Wen Renzhao, whose face was already pale, and even a look of horror appeared in his eyes, grabbed the back of her neck, and carried it to Wu Liang like a chicken.
“???”
“!!!”
At this moment, the "Great Sage Heavenly Master" Sun Bao and the "Left Protector" Huang Jing hadn't figured out what was going on, they just watched all this dumbfounded.
"Right Protector, these guards under your command can't even save yourself, do you still think they can save Jin Lichang from me?"
Looking at Wen Renzhao, whose pupils were trembling, Wu Liang grinned.
