He said this in a very crazy tone, and he had a posture of "Lao Tzu is watching the fire from the hole, and he has already seen through everything", and whoever it is, he will feel unhappy.

Ren Zhen was not happy, but he could only endure it silently, the person who said this was the fourth in the world, what else did he dare to do.

At the same time, his tense nerves relaxed slightly. Since this blind man wants to teach a lesson, then satisfy the desires of others and quietly watch him pretend to be forced.

Old man Yang stood in front of the window, with his hands behind his back, facing the bright world outside the window with a bird's-eye attitude, and gradually revealed the grandmaster's bearing at this time.

"When I say this, you will definitely not be convinced. But judging from your recent actions, you simply don't know anything about the ins and outs of this game! ”

Ren Zhen's face was calm, "I want to hear about it." ”

Old man Yang snorted and said indifferently: "In the days when you returned to Qifeng, the Northern Tang Dynasty was turbulent, how many major events happened, do you know?" ”

Ren Zhen was silent. This kind of questioning is usually self-answering, of course, he will not take the conversation, he is trying to hear what storms have arisen in the world under the mountain.

"The eight great martial marquis in the capital, holding military power, can be regarded as half of the sky of the military generals of the court, either they are promoted and degraded, or they are transferred out of Chang'an and are scattered by the emperor. The recently appointed secretary of the military department, guess who it is? Hehe, Yuan Chonghuan! ”

"Let Yuan Baimei's son take charge of the military, what is the difference between this and handing it over to Confucianism? Not only that, but even several military and horse governors stationed in Zhuzhou and County have also left their posts and rotated, leaving their own pro-army for many years. The emperor has finally made up his mind to take action against the military! ”

"A few days ago, the remnants of Eastern Wu in the six counties of Huiji rebelled, and the imperial court sent troops to suppress it, and the commander of the unified army was very interesting, he was actually one of the ten philosophers under the master's seat, Feng Wanli! Not surprisingly, he will be the first Confucian general since the founding of the Tang Dynasty! ”

Listening to these military and political events, Ren Zhen's face changed slightly. In the past month or so, he was busy stealing Yunyao Sect, and he really didn't expect that there would be such a big turmoil in the Northern Tang Dynasty.

"The military leaders are all from the military family, and the emperor has frequently taken action to purge them, to put it bluntly, he is suppressing your military faction. It has been circulating for so many years to suppress the military, and now it has finally begun......"

Speaking of this, Old Man Yang turned around, walked back to the table and sat down.

"Why am I mentioning this to you? The soldiers are divided into three veins, led by your kendo. The emperor dared to act vigorously and drastically implement the new policy, and the first reason was not because of you, a saint! ”

Ren Zhen followed back to his seat, his eyes flickering, silently savoring the meaning of his words.

"There is a saying in the Legalists, Confucianism uses literature to mess with the law, and soldiers use force to violate the ban. Why did the royal family of the dynasty under the mountain respect the Taoist sect on the mountain and was willing to worship it? That's because they are afraid of the methods of the great cultivators, and they are afraid that those people will be angry and kill him for thousands of miles, and people's hearts will be in turmoil! ”

At the square table, the little guy sat next to him, holding his chin and listening to the old blind man, his eyes blinking, and he was surprisingly quiet.

"Not every martial artist can threaten the imperial court, let alone the Nasen Sen Imperial City and the majestic imperial power. Great soldier, the only one who can really make the person on the dragon chair tremble is you, Gu Jiantang. If you can't, what fear will they have? ”

Ren Zhen nodded, understanding what he meant.

The royal family is as strong as a cloud, in fact, it is the most powerful family in the world, and its background is unfathomable, and it is by no means a sect that can compete with it. Only the peak powerhouses of the Eight Realms have the strength to break through the siege of heavy troops and finally kill in front of the emperor.

This is also the reason why the emperor canonized the saints.

What "all talents and virtues, called saints", are all high-sounding bullshit, in fact, they are just afraid.

As soon as the Sword Master fell, the soldiers would no longer have the royal family to rely on. Without reliance, you will lose your position, and you will lose everything you once had.

That's why Old Man Yang said that today's roots originated from Gu Jiantang.

Ren Zhen sighed, "If that iron umbrella hadn't betrayed ......"

Old man Yang interrupted coldly and laughed, "There is no if." After all, this old account is not on your head! ”

Ren Zhen shut up stupidly, not wanting to carry this black cauldron for Gu Jiantang.

"I made such a big detour, just to remind you that as a saint, you are the fate of the world's qi and tens of millions of people, even if you want to break the jar, you have to think about those behind you! Wouldn't it be nice to stop a little bit and concentrate on cultivation? ”

Ren Zhen raised his head, and stopped talking.

He probably knew that this blind man was referring to those things that went south to Jinling and north to Yunyao. He had heard Xue Qingwu say it too many times, and his ears were about to become calloused.

Old man Yang's heart was like a mirror, and when he "saw" his strange expression, he couldn't stop sneering, "It seems that you still don't know anything." Do you think that you have your own intentions in doing things, and others don't know how to pretend to understand? ”

Ren Zhen was speechless. This blind man not only speaks in a choking tone, but especially this cold and arrogant expression, which is really too bad.

"If you are not convinced, then I will tell you one by one! You have been living in Jinling for half a year, and the world does not know your intentions, but I can guess the approximate situation. With your background and experience, you originally had nothing to do with Jinling. ”

Old man Yang paused slightly, and his eyelids moved suddenly, "If you have to find a connection, then it should fall on that person!" After all, he died in Jinling back then, and the smoke and rain sword was also said to be hidden in Jinling! ”

Ren Zhen's expression changed drastically.

Old Man Yang raised his hand, signaled him not to be in a hurry to deny, and continued: "Whether it's looking for a sword hide or something else, your purpose is probably related to that person. How useful can a dead man's thing be that it's worth risking your life to find? ”

When Ren Zhen heard this, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

Old man Yang coughed a few times and said, "Even if it's worth it, you are willing to risk the world's condemnation, then, you must have found some clues and decided to leave after seeing hope, right?" After all, you've been holding back for sixteen years......"

Ren Zhen lowered his head and couldn't see his expression.

"That's the crux of the matter. I don't know, but you don't have to tell me what you know. You just have to calm down and think carefully about the cause and effect, why did you suddenly find the clue, who told you, why did he suddenly want to tell you......"

Before he finished speaking, Ren Zhen suddenly raised his head and said coldly: "I understand what you mean." Are you trying to say that the man knew that this clue was too important to me, so he deliberately revealed it and wanted me to go south to die? So, this is a knife to kill? ”

It's not that he didn't think that there was another mystery behind this matter. He even specially arranged for Eagle Vision Hall to check who Gu Jiantang had seen before going south and what abnormal behaviors he had. Only, it turned out to be nothing.

Could it be that this old man Yang knows the answer?!

Old man Yang was noncommittal, and smiled slightly, "If you die, or if you are abolished, what will happen in this world?" Who benefits the most? Who wants to see what's next? ”

Ren Zhen was shocked, thinking of the turmoil he had said at the beginning, and vaguely guessed the answer.

"Until just now, you always thought that your going south to Jinling was the beginning of this game of chess. In fact, you don't understand that someone has already made a move before you make a decision. ”

"Gu Jiantang, you are just a chess piece, and the person who plays chess is not you......"
