Chapter 54: Falsehood

The middle-aged man in gray cloth was sitting on the grass more than 20 meters away from Fang Jie, holding a wooden scoop drinking horse in his hand, and there was a gurgling spring beside him, which was very small, but the spring water was clear. The three warlike horses of the Northern Liao Land took turns drinking water in a very regular manner, and they were in good order.

After feeding the three horses and drinking water, the middle-aged man couldn't help but praise: "It's good to know the rules better than people." ”

When he says that horses are good, he means that there are people who are not good in his opinion. It's just that whether this bad person is Fang Xie or Fang Xie and the flying fish robe that has rushed over behind the big dog is unknown. The three horses drank the water and went to the grass on the side to graze without making a sound. I don't know if it's because I'm afraid of the quiet and peaceful place, or if something keeps them from screaming.

The middle-aged man threw the wooden scoop aside casually and whispered: "A scoop of water turns into a lake, after all, it is to the extreme, and it is difficult to break through." ”

I don't know why, those chasing soldiers have obviously arrived behind him, but Fang Xie is not a little afraid, he looked at the middle-aged man in gray cloth and smiled and said: "A scoop of water has turned into a lake to the extreme, so next time if you want to make it bigger, you might as well use a bucket of water." ”

The middle-aged man didn't annoy Fang Jie's words, but after thinking seriously for a while, he slowly shook his head and rejected Fang Jie's proposal: "The barrel is too big, it's not good to carry it with you." ”

This was obviously a little funny, but the tone in which he said it seemed very serious.

Fang Xie didn't laugh, because he knew that even if he was half-joking just now, the man in front of him really thought about it carefully. This is a person who takes everything seriously, so he deserves respect.

"Why did you bring my friend here?"

Fang Xie glanced back at the flying fish robes that had stopped dozens of meters away and asked the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Originally, I wanted to invite the three of you to come over, but my skills are still too low, so I can only invite this girl herself." You two...... One of them surprised me with a firm mind, and the other had a great hatred in his heart, so his heart was too strong, and I couldn't invite you to come, so I had to tempt you to come. ”

"As for you......"

He looked at Mu Xiaoxiao, and his eyes were full of approval: "I already have a rare keenness, and the power of perception is far beyond ordinary people, so I don't need to move too hard, you can also detect me." Since you can detect it, I naturally have a way to get you to get here on your own. You are extremely talented, if you meet a famous teacher, I am afraid that there will be a big man in the rivers and lakes in less than fifteen years. ”

This is the second person to say that Mu Xiaowaist is extremely talented.

The first one is the unreliable old lame man in the red sleeve move.

"Don't rush to talk about this yet, what do you want to do with letting us come here?"

The big dog took a step forward and slowly burrowed into his fist. He protected Mu Xiaoxiao and Fang Xie behind him, and looked at the middle-aged man's eyes with hostility. It's just that in this hostility, there is also a faint fear that is deliberately hidden, but still shows a trace of fear. Because of the words that the middle-aged man said before, the big dog's heart suddenly became turbulent.

The two of you, one of you is determined to surprise me. The other is because he has a big hatred, so he is too guarded......

The big dog's horror lies in the fact that the things he has hidden for sixteen years seem to be seen through by this middle-aged man at a glance. He even suspected now that this person was not a human, but really a monster who had been hiding in this dense forest and cultivating for an unknown number of years to attain the Tao and cultivate into a human form.

"I'm not a monster, I'm just an ordinary person."

Just when the big dog just thought of this, the middle-aged man suddenly said such a sentence. The big dog's face changed suddenly, and he took a step back sharply.

Fang Xie took a deep breath, and then slowly pulled out the horizontal knife. He looked at the middle-aged man and said word by word: "Whether you are hostile or not, but please explain your intentions." Maybe you are really a peerless master of cultivation, but we are not easy to bow our heads and be lambs to be slaughtered. ”

The middle-aged man looked at Fang Xie and smiled: "You are a bit interesting, you are a heroic person, and you have made a gesture of being ready to fight at any time, but you are thinking about how to escape...... I don't know if to call you hypocritical or if you should be cunning. ”

He didn't wait for Fang Xie to speak, and asked Fang Xie as he walked forward: "I want to know, you just said that the lake is too calm, it doesn't seem to be real, unless...... Unless it's what? ”

"Illusion"

Fang Xie gently spat out two words.

"Illusion...... That's an apt name. ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "For so many years, I have been calling this method a mirage, and I always feel that it is too obscure to understand, and the two words you said are very good." In the future, when others ask again, I will use these two words to explain...... Thank you. ”

He said thank you.

"You're welcome, now you can tell who you are. If nothing else, you must be in the same league as those flying fish robes behind me, right? ”

Fang asked.

"That's right, it's not right."

The middle-aged man slowly walked up to Fang Xie and said seriously: "That's right, it means that I do have a relationship with them." Wrong means to say...... They are here to kill you, and I am here to save you. Of course, you don't have to thank me, because if I had been more diligent, you might not have been so dangerous along the way. I left the imperial capital five days before them, but I walked too slowly because I was greedy for the scenery on the road......"

He pointed to his nose and said, "My surname is Zhuo." ”

Then he pointed to those flying fish robes: "They all call me Mr. Zhuo." ”

……

……

Gao Tianbao looked at the middle-aged man in gray cloth in front of him, and his heart couldn't help but tremble. He subconsciously looked back at Meng Wudi, the deputy suppressor of the intelligence department, hoping to get some instructions from the latter. But there was no doubt that when Meng Wushu saw the man in gray, his face became even more ugly than Gao Tianbao.

"Mr. Zhuo, why are you here?"

Meng Wushu immediately jumped down from his war horse, ran over in three steps and two steps, and then made a deep salute, which seemed to be a bit excessive. You must know that his identity is the deputy envoy of the love department, and this gray-clothed man has no fame, just a cloth cloth from a poor family.

With a dignified five-grade official position, he made a big salute to the cloth clothes.

So Fang Xie couldn't help but be a little surprised after seeing this scene, so he couldn't help but guess that this middle-aged man was Hou Wenji, the appeasement envoy of the Qing Ya. But he claimed to be surnamed Zhuo, if it was really Hou Wenji, it seemed that he had no reason to make up an identity for himself. There is no need to partner with Meng Wudi and them to act in a play.

Because Xiang Qingniu's understanding of the Qing Ya was not very detailed, Fang Xie didn't know that there was a cloth cloth with a very special status in the Qing Ya.

"I should have arrived early, and when I passed by Meizhuang, I talked with the old owner for a few rounds, and the consecutive defeats aroused the competitive spirit, and as a result, I stayed in the village for seven days, but I forgot to get down to business...... It's none of your business, I'm going to take these three people to the imperial capital, and you all go back. ”

The person known as Mr. Zhuo said lightly.

"Go back?"

Meng Wushu was stunned, hesitated for a moment and said, "But this is the order of the pacification envoy, and these people are also important criminals strictly ordered by the imperial court." ”

Mr. Zhuo shook his head, sighed, and whispered four words: "Obsessed." ”

Meng Wudi's face changed, and he quickly calculated in his heart. Before he could come up with a countermeasure, he heard Mr. Na Zhuo say indifferently: "You don't have to think about how to deal with me, as long as you go back to the imperial capital honestly now, I will treat it as if I haven't seen anything and heard nothing." And don't think you can hide anything, the appeasement makes the adults already know. I left the imperial capital five days before you, but you are still stupid to think that you can hide anything. If it weren't for the calming envoy who remembered your achievements for more than ten years, would you still be allowed to live until now? ”

Hearing these words, Meng Wudi actually knelt down with weak legs. He prostrated on the ground, and pleaded in a trembling voice while kowtowing: "Mr. Qiu Zhuo said a few words for the lowly position in front of the pacification envoy, the lowly position...... It was only when he was confused and blinded by lard that he would accept the money of those people...... Mr. Zhuo, I know that this matter is wrong. ”

Mr. Zhuo shook his head and sighed lightly, "You still don't know what you are wrong...... You accepted money from the Li family and those people in the military department, which is not a big mistake. You're wrong, you're wrong, you actually think you can do something in the love office that can hide from the pacification envoy. The love office is the love office of His Majesty...... But the one who is in charge of the government is always the soothing envoy. ”

"I know that I am wrong, I really know that I am wrong."

Meng Wushu kowtowed and pleaded, his voice a little torn.

Fang Xie and the three of them glanced at each other, and couldn't help but quietly breathe a sigh of relief. Then there was surprise, and they were all very curious about the identity of this Mr. Zhuo. The deputy pacification envoy of the Qing Ya actually knelt in front of him and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, no matter who saw this scene, they might be surprised beyond measure.

Mr. Zhuo sighed and said, "The matter of this young man, the Lord of the Suppression Envoy has already mentioned it in front of His Majesty. If you really kill him...... Do you know how much disaster it will bring to the mistress? ”

"Your Majesty......"

Meng Wushu raised his head, and for a moment his face became bloodless.

"The pacification envoy asked me to go out of the imperial capital to pick up this young man before you, instead of breaking you, not stopping you, and not killing you...... In fact, the pacification envoy has already left you a way back. It's because you yourself are lost because of a little yellow and white thing, and your vision is so low...... No. ”

When he finished saying this, he suddenly turned his head to look at Gao Tianbao, and his tone was indifferent, revealing a trace of disdain: "You are more courageous than Meng Wuving, and you actually have the idea of killing me." ”

Gao Tianbao was shocked, first took a step back, and then couldn't help but shout to Meng Wuyi: "My lord, there are only four of them here, we have more than a hundred crossbows in our hands, and with your cultivation, even if they are immortals, there is no way to live!" My lord, don't listen to his demagoguery, after killing them, return to the imperial capital, who can know that we did this! ”

Meng Wudi's trembling body stiffened suddenly, and he watched Mr. Zhuo slowly stand up. He turned around and walked up to Meng Wushu and said, "You are right, no one knows about this matter after killing them." But have you thought about it? If I had done so, I would have found a way to kill everyone here today to prevent future troubles? Mr. Zhuo is right, you are more courageous than me...... Although my heart is dark, I have never thought of betraying the Pacification Envoy. ”

When he finished saying this, Gao Tianbao was already on the run.

Meng Wushu just made a gesture, and then more than a hundred crossbows were raised, and in a moment, Gao Tianbao was shot into a hedgehog, and he didn't even run out of twenty steps before he fell to the ground and lost his breath.

"Cut off one of my arms, and I will talk to the pacification envoy after returning to the imperial capital."

Mr. Zhuo said lightly, then turned around and walked towards the three of them.

"Thank you, Mr. Zhuo!"

Hearing the words of cutting off his arm, Meng Wudi was not afraid, but a touch of joy appeared on his face. He stretched out his left arm, bit his lip violently, and poof, the left arm flew out of him without warning, spilling a cloud of blood mist. The arm flew far away, and suddenly exploded in mid-air and turned into a piece of minced meat.

Meng Wudi, who was pale, knelt down on one knee, looked at Mr. Zhuo's back and said, "Leave your right arm to hold the weapon, and you can do more for the Qing Ya." ”

"Hmm"

Mr. Zhuo nodded, waved his hand and said, "Go, I still promised to let you live, and I won't break my promise, in front of the pacification envoy, I still have some use in speaking." ”

Meng Wudi kowtowed again, stood up and turned to leave. Those flying fish robes hurriedly followed, not daring to stop for even a second.

This Mr. Zhuo, who looked mysterious and powerful, quietly wiped the sweat on his palms on his clothes after Meng Wushu left.

He breathed a long sigh of relief in his heart, and then said to himself: Fortunately...... No one knew that my palms would sweat when I told a lie...... And the biggest advantage of this identity is that no one dares to disbelieve it when telling lies.
