Chapter III

Bangor's death will of course cause a huge impact, and when Qu Zhu's body is also found at the same time, it will make the impact even more powerful tenfold.

"Two people died together! With knives in their hands, it seems... It's all the same! ”

The first to bring back the news was still Hua Shengrong, who seemed to know everything, and said in a colorful voice, and he even described the knife that completely cut off Qu Zhu's head as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

"Nonsense, you're not here again... There are no people here who will spend money to buy news from you, can you let yourself rest for a while?! ”

It was very surprising that it was Yang Jizhi who shouted loudly and scolded Hua Shengrong, because he was caught by Yun Chongbo and was copying a piece of Taoli, and his current mood was really bad to the extreme.

"This, Lao Yang, it's not kind for you to say that... As the saying goes, the song does not leave the hand, the fist does not leave the mouth, no matter how good the style is, it must be practiced often..."

Lazy to listen to the two people mixed in, Yun Chongbo ran out, ready to inquire about the news by himself, took the door and turned around, but saw Fazhao, who was standing in a shadow in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Master?"

"Huh?"

It suddenly occurred to me that as a representative of the interpretation of the floating map, how should Fa Zhao view the changes here? In any case, Tantra is nominally always under the wings of the Buddha.

The abrupt question seems a little incomprehensible, but compared to it, Fa Zhao's answer is even more incompatible.

"As soon as Qu Zhu goes, chaos is coming..."

For a while, I didn't understand why Fa Zhao made such a feeling, but when Fa Zhao left silently without saying a word, Yun Chongbo couldn't ask more.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Coming to the streets of Jiwo, Yun Chongbo first went to Qu Zhu's official residence, although he didn't feel that he had any identity to mourn a four-rank senior member of the hall, but after thinking about it, he still decided to come here first, because it was not the first time to come, the soldiers who had already known him respectfully extended it in, and also invited an officer to lead the way to the mourning hall.

said that he was an officer, but he was just a small team, and his mouth was very fast, but after ten steps, he had already told Yun Chongbo that Qu Zhu had no family in the mainland, and everything was completely handled by his deputy, because things were too hasty, and until now, even Qu Zhu's relics had not had time to be sorted out, but he had only temporarily cleared out a main hall and used it as a mourning hall.

"However, Lord Xu is not here now, he has gone to the Dharma Palace."

"Lord Xu" is Qu Zhu's deputy, surnamed Xu Minglu, an elderly civil official, a little impatient, and has met Yun Chongbo a few times. Because he was worried that he was not meticulous enough, Qu Zhu hid many things from him, and even though he knew this, he was still content with his duty and loyal to his duty, which was what Yun Chongbo admired the most.

At this time, when he went to the Law Palace, Yun Chongbo also figured out why: the death was unknown, and this kind of appearance must not be reported directly to the officials - at least, there must be a statement about the murderer.

(Bangor is dead, though...) It's strange that Lord Qu actually has the ability to die with him. )

The stomach was uncertain, Yun Chongbo had already burned incense in front of the spirit, and it was a little strange to see that it was just a thin-skinned coffin, which was very inconspicuous.

"There's no way, it's so troublesome to transport things in this place..."

Tantra believes that the soul returns to heaven, and the body does not enter the earth, of course, there is no room for the coffin shop to survive, just this one, I still don't know how to find it.

"It's the first time that the appeasement has died in office!"

The look was very indignant, proving that Qu Zhu was indeed in control, and the team said that if they didn't give a clear explanation, this matter would never stop.

"If you use that surnamed Ban to prevaricate us, even if Lord Xu endures it, we won't bear it... Of course, Lord Xu will definitely not endure it. ”

Looking at him with angry eyes, as if he wanted to rush out now, Yun Chongbo couldn't help but remind: There are only three hundred soldiers in total, and there are not even hard hands above the fourth level in the middle, and they will definitely be ugly in the face of the private soldiers of Shangdunkuo Fort.

"Huh? Do they dare to resist? ”

looked at Yun Chongbo in surprise, he didn't seem to think of the possibility of the other party resisting at all, which made Yun Chongbo strange again.

"We are only 300 people, but we represent the emperor, the emperor."

Full of confidence, the team was saying that if it was really like what Yun Chongbo said, their three hundred people would definitely be wiped out, but then, soon, the entire snowy region would also be buried together.

"Attacking us is challenging the emperor, if the emperor is angry... What is a snowy region? ”

It seems that this should be believed, because Yun Chongbo has personally seen the strength of the Great Xia army, from the Black Water Army of the Wanyan family to the army of the Gongsun family, although they have acted as losers again and again, but in terms of combat effectiveness, they are still definitely not something that the snow region can resist.

(That's not what Lord Qu thinks, though.) )

Evaluating Qu Zhu's mind very highly, Yun Chongbo felt that since he believed that the current imperial capital would not make up his mind to send troops to the Snow Domain, there must be a reason for him. Thinking about it this way, he was a little worried about the blind faith of these soldiers.

(Hey, but...) )

It suddenly occurred to me that there was actually no problem, because Qu Zhu's thinking should have been understood and captured by only a few people. And the vast majority of the people of the snowy region should only have some understanding with these soldiers.

(That's no problem, everyone believes that the emperor's side will definitely move...) Then who else dares to move)

After thinking about this, Yun Chongbo was very happy, and for a while, he was a little subservient to the emperor's unsurpassed authority.

(It's already an outside...) But with the word "emperor" alone, you can... )

With the word "emperor" alone, it can make the three hundred soldiers who are obviously the weakest be full of courage, and they can make the people of the snowy region bow their heads to their ears, thinking of this, Yun Chongbo suddenly felt uncomfortable, but in the end, he couldn't say it for a while.

So I told them, don't prevaricate with Bangor! Lord Qu is here on behalf of the emperor, so if it is gone, it is disrespectful to the emperor! …”

There was a roar like thunder, and it was already heard before people entered the door, and it was Xu Lu who had already negotiated back.

Although he only heard a few fragments, he could imagine how the negotiations were going, and suddenly felt very powerless, Yun Chongbo made an excuse and hurriedly left.

(Bangor, this guy, it's really good, it's dead, it's going to be troublesome...) But why did he have to kill Lord Qu? )

When I returned to the residence, I found that Hua Shengrong and Yang Jizhi were not there, and then went out to see, Fa Zhao didn't know where to go, and it wasn't until nearly noon that Hua Yang and Yang came back together, but they went to Bangor to mourn.

"Oh, nephew, that house is so big..."

Bangor's residence is ten times larger than Qu Zhu's official residence, but according to what the two of them have seen, there are few guests to ask questions, but this is not surprising, after all, the two successive kings have been obviously dissatisfied with him, and they have caused trouble such as "killing court officials without permission".

"So, when he saw us going, the housekeeper was almost moved to tears..."

Hua Shengrong's statement was obviously exaggerated, but later, Fa Zhao also brought back similar news, lamenting that people's hearts are not ancient and the world is cold.

"The bones are not cold, the infighting has begun..."

Eight years ago, Bangor became the leader of the castle with his extraordinary skills and abundant funds, but internally, there were not only one or two people who coveted the huge benefits of this position, but there were also members of the Bangor family.

"In this case, Bangor's pulse has lost power, and the different forces within the big castle are naked in front of his spirit, naked coercion and negotiation."

According to the news they had heard, it seemed that they were pressuring the faithful old butler to hand over something that represented a great deal of interest, but the butler insisted. His reasons are also very simple, first, no one is qualified to take over the things in the Dungot Fort before the new leader appears, and second, the things of the Bangor family should be decided by his wife and son, let alone to any brothers in the clan.

"Faithfulness is commendable... Still, I don't think he lasted long. ”

Qu Zhu's matter, no matter what, there must be an explanation, and to satisfy Xu Lu and the others, the best way is to completely destroy Bangor's forces, Fa Zhao even thinks that this has probably become a consensus within Dunguo Fort, so he will be unscrupulous enough to sue Hu in front of the spirit.

"And now, the only thing that makes them hesitate is His Holiness attitude... In any case, Bangor actually has a 'meritorious service', and no one can ignore what His Holiness thinks. ”

"The King doesn't have any affection for Bangor, let alone any affection, because it's a big deal, and he just returned to the snowy land, so he needs to know as much as he can... Please rest assured of this. ”

Holding his palms together, Bao Lin slowly walked in, and brought a piece of news, just now, His Holiness had made a decision to send someone to send a handwritten letter with the seal of the Dharma Palace to Bangor Mansion. Hearing this news, Hua Yang's expressions suddenly became very stiff, and Fa Zhao also seemed a little surprised.

"That's a very harsh condemnation, a condemnation of Bangor's previous actions... However, nothing else was mentioned. ”

--------------------------------------------------------------------

"Is it necessary to mention?"

After Bao Lin left, he sneered, and Yang Jizhi's comment was quite yin and yang.

"As long as you say 'you can push', it is natural that people 'know the current affairs'... With His Holiness saying this, what scruples do those guys have? Even if you use a knife, you dare! ”

You don't have to get any dust on your hands, as long as you wait for a few days, wait for the Bangor family to be destroyed in the infighting, and then come forward to clean up the mess and explain to Xu Lu, you can easily end everything, thinking about it carefully, Yun Chongbo actually felt a little chilled.

(This guy is amazing...) )

Although he did not participate in the analysis, Fa Zhao did not object to Yang Jizhi's judgment, and smiled wryly, he just said that the new leader of Tantra is indeed extraordinary.

"However, he can't help it... He has just taken over and has not yet been recognized by the imperial court, so he can't help but show his sincerity..."

After that, Fa Zhao told the three that the things they had come to this time had been done, and in a few days, they would like to go back.

"Ahh Well, let's go along. ”

agreed with Fa Zhao to go on the road together, and in the middle, Hua Shengrong once again asked Fa Zhao for "escort fee", but was interrupted by Yun Chongbo's fierce "beating", however, after sending Fa Zhao out, he still acquiesced to Hua Shengrong's blackmail of Yang Jizhi.

"In short, the master is a good person, and a good person can't be bullied, and you two guys, if you have nothing to do, you can entangle yourself, anyway, remember for me, I have to search my body before leaving, and I will beat me if I find one!"

crossed his waist, and commanded the two of them to start packing up their things very vigorously, but it didn't take long for the knock on the door to sound desperately.

It was news from Bangor House, and as expected, the king's handwritten letter was like a great tonic for those people, so that they began to dare to use direct violence and persecution, but at the same time, it also brought unexpected results.

After howling and crying, the faithful old butler seemed to finally give in, and ran back to the inner room, holding out a small box. According to him, it was given to him personally by Bangor on the day of his death.

"The lord said... If he dies for nowhere, I'm going to take care of this box... If even the Dharma King wants to be unfavorable to the palace, open this box for everyone to see..."

Of course, it can't be a ledger or a key for such a collection, and based on his experience of listening to stories for many years, Yun Chongbo thinks that it should be a pre-written suicide note.

"But it's strange, according to the law, he is a good person who can write this kind of thing in advance, and he is the smartest good person, why can he write it too?"

Even more amazing than "leaving a suicide note in advance" is the "content" of the suicide note, that... What an accusation that will leave everyone speechless.

With blood as a book, Bangor asks for everyone's trust and forgiveness, which explains why he must kill Qu Zhu.

"He actually said, Lord Qu... He is the culprit who manipulates the Nine Gods of War behind his back?! ”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

In a long letter written entirely in blood, Bangor made a strong accusation that Qu Zhu was the culprit of everything, that he was secretly manipulating the Nine Gods of War and destroying the foundation of Tantra.

Just an accusation... Even if it was written in blood, it could not easily shake Qu Zhu's position, but in the letter, Bangor presented concrete evidence one by one, something he had secretly collected for a long time.

According to the account in the letter, those things were found from the secret room one by one, there were items, and there were also fragments of the letter, and when connected, it was indeed possible to partially prove his accusations, but it was not very strong. As if to understand this, Bangor said in the letter that he knew there was stronger physical evidence, but he had not been able to obtain it. But he believes that in Qu Zhu's study, he will definitely be able to get enough evidence.

At the end of the letter, Bangor reiterates his devotion to Tantra in the hope that His Holiness will perceive his sincerity, while he also says that Qu Zhu seems to have become alert and that it is becoming more and more difficult to gather evidence.

“… Therefore, he invited Lord Qu to have a showdown, and the showdown was reversed, and in the end, the two of them died together? ”

"You will believe this kind of talk, Your Majesty, you have really disappointed the official."

Blocking the door of the official residence, Xu Lu spoke in an arrogant tone, completely rejecting the suggestion of the visitor, although... Among those who came were the new Holiness, the three major temple masters, and almost all the important people in the city of Jivo.

"Lord Qu is an official of the imperial court, and Bangor is just a local tyrant... Such an accusation is not worth believing at all. ”

There were only thirty or forty soldiers behind him, and he was a civilian official with no strength to speak of, but Xu Lu stood arrogantly like this, refusing to let everyone out of the door, and not even letting them in. Looking at him, Yun Chongbo once again felt the huge figure of the "Emperor" that spread far and wide.

Although any temple master has enough strength to force his way in, no one understands the consequences of taking this step, and even His Holiness does not dare to make a decision when faced with the word "bullying".

After a long stalemate, in the end, Fa Zhao, who was also from the Central Plains, came forward to ease his cheeks, and under his coordination, Xu Lu finally reluctantly agreed to the request of Tantra to inspect Qu Zhu's study, but there were still conditions.

"You can only go in, and I'll follow."

With a slight bow, His Holiness not only agreed to this request, but also invited Fazhao to enter with him.

"As I said, we are here precisely because we believe in Lord Qu... bothered one or two, just to prove Lord Qu's innocence. ”

After about a half-incense, the three of them came out of the study, and... Before he could hear anything, Yun Chongbo almost knew the results of the examination.

Fazhao and Bukong have been worshipping the Buddha for many years, and nothing was revealed on their faces like dead wood, but Xu Lu's depressed expression could not have hinted at the result more clearly.

(How can this be, Lord Qu he...) )

For a moment, Yun Chongbo almost suspected that Bangor had arranged something to hide in Qu Zhu's study in advance, because there was really no way to explain why Qu Zhu wanted to manipulate the Nine Gods of War.

(Well, but if that's the case, he's "our"...) That's the way it goes, this place... But... )

After thinking about it for a while, Yun Chongbo finally couldn't figure it out, and finally made up his mind, "If you can't figure it out, you won't want to think about it, and if you have the opportunity, you can ask Jiutian directly." ”

It seemed that the victory had been achieved, but nothing was declared, Bukong slowly walked to the door, and turned to Xu Lu and said, "Thank you, Lord Xu, for being accommodating." Without waiting for him to answer, he walked out of the mansion quickly, glanced around at everyone, and said, "Let's go." In the end, he did not explain whether Bangor's accusations were true or false.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the Dharma Palace, in a huge ashram, Da Mian Cangjia was meditating quietly.

"I'm coming."

It was the incumbent Dharma King who pushed the door in and greeted him in a cold voice, and he slammed the door back to the other end of the ashram and sat down cross-legged as well.

"Find me... What do you want to ask? ”

"What I want to ask is... Why? ”

His eyes were still calm, but there seemed to be a fire rolling in the middle, and Da Mian Cangjia said word for word: "Why... Do you want to deal with Qu Zhu like this? ”

Looking at him expressionlessly, Bukong seemed to want to say something, but in the end he just said, "Please continue." ”

His pupils contracted, and Da Mian Cangjia stared at Bukong, and said: "The emperor's authority is not something we can tease, one wrong step... The entire snowy region will be wiped out. You have been in the Central Plains for 20 years, and you should know this truth better than I do. ”

Hearing the word "emperor", the corners of Bukong's mouth twitched, as if he was recalling something, and after a while, he said, "Yes, I know." Da Mian Cangjia followed and said, "That... Why did you make this happen? ”

Frowning slightly, he looked at Da Mian Cangjia for a while, and suddenly said: "What do you think, what kind of blood book is Bangor?" Did I set it up? Seeing that Da Mian Cangjia didn't answer him, he said slowly: "You... Do you really think Qu Zhu is innocent? ”

Da Mian Cangjia said angrily: "Do you think I believe that what Bangor said is true?!" He was really angry at this time, and between the shouts and shouts, his power was revealed, and the indoor utensils were buzzed.

Bukong was silent for a while, and said: "I know, you have always misunderstood me, and you always thought that Bangor was colluding with me... But..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Da Mian Cangjia, he shook his head and said, "The golden bottle moves, and the Dharma King is now... This is something that everyone admits and no one can fake... So, you have nothing to worry about, let alone say anything superfluous. ”

"I'm just asking you, why do you have to stigmatize Qu Zhu? Treating the court's appeasement envoys like this, the consequences... Don't you understand the consequences? ”

Bukong's eyes flickered slightly, he thought for a while, and said slowly: "I just went to Qu Zhu's place and searched his study... Those present, in addition to Master Fazhao, were Xu Lu. ”

As he spoke, he reached into his bosom and pulled out a bundle of letters.

"Damian Kurajia... I see what you mean, but, what I'm trying to say is... Are you really sure you can see Qu Zhu clearly? ”

"You think I'm willing to believe Bangor? Believe that these words may bring ruin to the snowy region? Why do you think I insist on going to Qu Zhu's study? ”

"I just wanted Bangor to say it was all wrong, I just wanted to clear it up... However, I found these. ”

Slowly spreading the letter on the table, the sound of the non-empty voice was dry and slow, like two pieces of wood rubbing against each other.

"These, things that I don't dare to let others see, these things, things that made Fa Zhao resign to me at that time, these... I wish I hadn't found anything at all... Da Mian Cangjia, please let go of your obsession and take a serious look. ”

With a little confusion to look at the non-empty, Da Mian Cangjia casually took out a letter, saw that there was no payment on it, only the first place with a seal, is three intertwined bamboo leaves, he also recognized, said: "This is the private seal of Lord Qu..."

Bukong kept looking at him coldly, and at this moment Fang said: "Here and now, in Jiwo City, except for Master Xu and Master Fazhao, only you and I have read these letters... Hey, it's Fazhao, if he wasn't around, I wouldn't let him know. ”

Da Mian Cangjia was at a loss for a while, but he had recovered at this moment, and said in a deep voice: "That's right... It would be better if there was one less person to know..."Suddenly remembered, he hurriedly took the letter in front of him, carefully discerned it, and after a while, Fang put it down and said, "It is indeed his word." ”

Bukong nodded slightly, and said with a wry smile: "This was my last hope... Hopefully you'll recognize these as false letters... Hey. As he spoke, he got up and said, "Da Mian Cangjia... I've been away from this place for 20 years, and I don't even recognize all the middle-level monks of the three major monasteries... If you want to get an idea, you'll only be better than me, tell me, what to do? ”

All this was completely unexpected by Da Mian Cangjia, and he pondered for a while and said: "Confidentiality... At present, it can only be kept secret... If it leaks...", he couldn't help but glance at the letters lying quietly on the table again, and his eyes were full of fear.

Bukong sighed and said, "That's the only way...", looking at the letter, he said: "These things must not be leaked..."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

“… The real person once explained that these things must not be leaked. ”

(That is, it can't be said about me, the "immortal"...) Is it?! )

The stomach was bulging and bulging, but Yun Chongbo didn't know how to attack, he was just annoyed in his heart, thinking: "She... How is she different from the previous Taiping Daoists?! ”

Because he was very confused about what happened, and because he was also a little worried about what happened to Jiutian that day, Yun Chongbo used the method taught by Yuqing at the beginning to leave a secret mark in the city, and quickly contacted Jiutian to agree on the time and place of meeting.

Originally, it was planned to be arranged in a more remote place, but Jiutian insisted that the "immortal" could not be allowed to be too far away from the Dharma Palace, so in the end, the location was agreed to be near the Dharma Palace, and it could almost be said that they met in the Dharma Palace.

(Well, it must be so, it was awkward from the beginning, so it was awkward all awkward...) )

The first two times actually had a feeling, but this time the feeling is particularly obvious, Jiutian is completely different from the previous Taiping Daoists, not only does not have the kind of nervousness that is sincerely afraid as soon as he knows the identity of the "immortal", but also seems to be hostile to Yun Chongbo, when Yun Chongbo asked her what the Taiping Dao is arranged in the snowy region, she asked ten sentences, but seven or eight sentences are to listen to it again, "must not leak".

(If I had known, I shouldn't have worried about you these days!) )

On that day, Jiutian led all the gods of war to fight together, but he was defeated and retreated, and he was also hit hard, and a mouthful of blood spit out and stained nearly half of the wall, so he could only barely escape, which really made Yun Chongbo worry for a few days. But seeing her again today, she was completely refreshed, and her spirit could no longer be refreshed, and when Yun Chongbo asked her how her injuries were, she could only change back to an expression that was almost sneering, and she was really depressed.

Almost all of Yun Chongbo's questions were avoided, but Jiutian was very persistent in advising Yun Chongbo to leave, with a mysterious attitude, she insisted on not saying what the reason was, but repeatedly said that leaving now is a good thing for everyone.

"Chaos is coming... It is better for the undead to leave as soon as possible, and not to take the danger lightly. ”

It should be said that it was kind advice, but in Yun Chongbo's ears, he was really uncomfortable, saying that since it was a dangerous place, it was better to leave together for nine days.

With a chuckle, Jiutian said that she had a heavy responsibility and couldn't leave like this, but when Yun Chongbo said that she could help, she politely declined, saying that she could take it.

"Everyone has something to do, it is my responsibility to complete the things in the snowy region, no matter how difficult it is, I can only work hard, how can I implicate the undead because of this?"

It was so stuffy that it was about to explode, and Yun Chongbo decided not to fight with Jiutian anymore.

(If you don't help, I won't help you...) In a hurry to drive me away, I was going to leave! )

was about to say goodbye, but Yun Chongbo was unwilling in the end, thinking about it, he still said to Jiutian that he would ask the last word.

"It's up to you to answer or not, I'm going to ask anyway."

What Yun Chongbo was concerned about was Bango's accusation, saying that Qu Zhu was the behind-the-scenes commander of the Nine Gods of War, although Yun Chongbo didn't believe it at all, he was also very curious.

Originally, he didn't have much hope, so when Jiutian said that this question could be answered after pondering for a long time, Yun Chongbo was surprised.

"Qu Zhu, of course he is not a behind-the-scenes commander, at least not all... He's just working with us, and we all take what we need. ”

With his mouth wide open, Yun Chongbo felt that even if he only heard this sentence, it would be worth it today.

"You say, you mean... Lord Qu he..."

Looking at Yun Chongbo's unexpected appearance, Jiutian also seemed to be very happy, his eyes flashed behind the mask, and he said, "The immortal... What kind of person Qu Zhu is, you don't know at all... You don't know what's going on in this snowy area, so... You might as well leave as soon as possible. ”

(I don't know, I don't know...) Tell me I won't know?! )

The stomach was very angry, but he also knew that saying it was just to get angry, Yun Chongbo wanted to leave, but because of Jiutian's words, he thought of something new.

Qu Zhu... Since he is cooperating with Taiping Dao to a certain extent, what impact will his death have on the development of the Taiping Dao plan?

"This?"

Slightly surprised, Jiutian told Yun Chongbo that there was no need to worry.

"Everything... It's still all under control. ”

In Yun Chongbo's opinion, Jiutian's self-confidence is really not normal, not like the attitude that he should have when he has just been killed to the point of almost death and has lost his important collaborators, but as soon as he saw the mask, it seemed to reject people's gaze thousands of miles away, and Yun Chongbo no longer had the courage to ask.

(Okay, okay, I'll just go anyway, I'll leave it to you here...) Really, I shouldn't have come in the first place. )

It wasn't until the nine days had disappeared that Yun Chongbo suddenly realized that something was very strange.

(She...) Why did she wear that god of war suit to meet... Could it be that we are so poor that one person only has one clothes? )

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In the quiet room, Bao Lin closed his eyes and meditated, and although he was meditating to cleanse his heart, his eyebrows and mouth were still distorted into a very bitter expression. Like a doll carved from dead wood, it is more like a living person,

It was late at night, and outside the window, there was a crescent moon like a hook, like a weird smile.

There was a soft bang, and the door was pushed open, but the visitor just stopped at the door and did not come in.

Alarmed, Bao Lin slowly opened his eyes and stiffened for a moment.

"You..."

“… to kill you. ”

The simple and cold voice showed the determination of the comer, and at the same time, the blue-white light surged violently, frantically pressing towards Bao Lone.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

(It's so cold, it's only October, but it's colder than the Chinese New Year in my hometown!) )

When he came back from breaking up with Jiutian, he found that Hua Yang and the others were not there, and Fa Zhao didn't know where to go, Yun Chongbo was bored, sat for a while, and finally decided to go out for a walk and visit Bao Lian, who had not seen him for a few days.

(Since the incident with the golden vase, Master Bao Lin seems to have been very tired, and I don't see him smiling, no wonder, after following the original Dharma King for so long, there must be feelings.) )

The Dharma Palace is very large, and Yun Chongbo's residence is quite far away from Bao Lone's residence, and he has nothing to do left and right, just slowly wandering on the road.

(Now it's time to never get lost again...) )

On the day he first entered the Dharma Palace, Yun Chongbo had run into the residence of the Dharma King because he got lost here, and he learned from the pain, and he remembered it very carefully after that, and now he is really handy, and he also admires himself a little.

A loud "boom" sounded, and Yun Chongbo was startled, but that direction was where Bao Silence was!

Rushing hard, running wildly, but listening to the two sounds of "bump" and "bump" in front of me, one was too small, and it was almost in one place.

At this time, Yun Chongbo could already see Bao Lone's residence, but at a distance of more than thirty paces, he heard the surrounding noise, which showed that the movement here had alarmed the guards.

Another sprint, less than ten steps from the door, but heard a bang, the door had been shattered, and a black shadow swept out of it.

He didn't carry a knife, but he also had a powerful fist in his body, and almost immediately, Yun Chongbo had condensed the dragon fist... And disperse immediately.

Dumbfounded, looking at the black shadow passing by, Yun Chongbo was motionless, if the other party was interested, he could be severely injured or even killed with a move when he passed by... But, it was not done.

The one who passed by Yun Chongbo was the nine days that broke up with him not long ago!

By the time he had relaxed from his stiffness, Yun Chongbo had almost understood why Jiutian had insisted on meeting near the Dharma Palace, and why he was wearing the armor of the God of War, and he almost knew what was waiting for him in that room.

After a pause, Yun Chongbo quickly rushed into the room, where ...... A piece of flesh and blood, Bao Lone, has been cut in half!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Before the end of the day, above the snowy region, the genius was just bright.

The mountains are sleeping, half-light and half-dark, and these white*, which have been quiet and immobile since time immemorial, are as powerful as the gods.

On the huge mountain, there are small and negligible figures trying to climb, following a route with only vague impressions, overcoming one difficulty after another, he persevered, and reached the goal.

(Alas, the words are not clear...) If you don't get anything from running to the place, then this trip is really wronged! )

Yesterday, it was too late to arrive, and Yun Chongbo could only watch Bao Lin breathe in his arms... As well as leaving a last word.

When ordinary people die, it seems that they should explain how their property is distributed, and if they are killed by the enemy, then they should leave who the enemy is... Therefore, when he found out yesterday that Bao Lin was not dead, Yun Chongbo was really nervous, and he was very afraid that he would leave the identity of the "murderer"... After all, theoretically, Yun Chongbo is really the murderer's "comrade".

Fortunately... Or misfortune is okay, Bao Lin didn't leave a name, strictly speaking, it was just a pre-death phrase that didn't seem to make any sense.

"Hu..."

He was already dying, but he seemed to have received an unexpected hint because of this, and Bao Lone's face was full of fear and anxiety, and he struggled to leave this slurred pronunciation, and died.

Maybe it's just a, but Yun Chongbo can't let himself believe it... For he had never seen anyone so frightened, desperate, and struggling to leave something behind.

Such eyes, and the blood stained on his body, deeply moved Yun Chongbo, and he made up his mind to do something for Bao Lian.

No one else is faster than Yun Chongbo, so no one else heard Bao Lone's message, although he could do some consultation with others, but after thinking about it for a long time, Yun Chongbo still decided to keep this secret, and carefully excavated it to find out what made Bao Lin so afraid. Of course, in the place where she would never admit it, this was also a kind of gambling, not resentful of the unfathomable nature of the Nine Heavens, Yun Chongbo actually wanted to use her own strength to find out those things that she refused to confide in.

Because of these reasons, Yun Chongbo came to this place with all his might, this... Where he had just been a while ago.

Nameless snow lake, lonely high rock pillar... In this place, Bao Lin recognized the identity of "Qu Xigang Zhu", and as for that reason, Yun Chongbo still doesn't understand.

(There is no one surnamed Hu in this place, so I can only come to this snow lake...) Otherwise, he wouldn't have said I should shave, would he? )

Covered by the eternal ice and snow, each mountain seems to be the same, several times into the fork in the road, and with a little memory of the day to find it hard, when Yun Chongbo finally found a place, he was so tired that he wanted to lie down and sleep for a while.

Like a huge sapphire, the lake is quietly sleeping in the embrace of the snow ridge, and it seems that it is ready to sleep like this for thousands of years.

However, twenty days ago, he met Qu Xi Gangzhu here with Bao Shan, a monk who "involuntarily" returned to the snowy region, and now, in the middle of the day, Qu Xi Gangzhu has replaced Da Mian Cangjia and become the new Dharma King, Bao Shan, Bang Ge, and Qu Zhu have all passed away, and Jiwo can be said to have completely changed the world... Twenty days of work, looking back, it seems like a lifetime away.

(Really, it's only been a few days, and it's been like this...) )

Sighing, Yun Chongbo slowly circled around the snow lake, and he didn't know what to look for.

In fact, the matter here has nothing to do with him at all, especially when there is Taiping Dao among the manipulators behind it, it seems that Yun Chongbo should not intervene like this anymore, but he has witnessed death and chaos again and again, and has been moved by Qu Zhu's worries, and is not angry that Jiutian is always hiding and hiding, he really wants to do something and find out something.

(Bao Li... And those monks, as well as Lord Qu, don't seem to be bad people... Alas, but in this way, are we Taiping Dao bad people? )

Speaking of which, Jiutian is really in line with the image of the bad guy in Yun Chongbo's mind: the god is mysterious and secretive, and he despises human life... However, whenever he remembered that in Jinzhou, the nine generals of Tianmen also acted like this, Yun Chongbo couldn't make a very harsh criticism.

(Mysterious, I can't help it...) Otherwise, it would have been destroyed by the emperor a long time ago. )

When he was in his hometown, Yun Chongbo only regarded the emperor as the "big rich man" who eventually collected all the taxes and the "big official" who could appoint all the positions, as for how rich and "powerful" he was... And how strong there is, it's not really clear. Heaven and earth are two worlds that do not know each other. It was only after going to Jinzhou that he began to slowly feel what the "emperor" and "imperial power" were, and in the snowy region, he had a feeling that he had never felt before, watching Qu Zhu be able to suppress and influence all the forces including the Fa King with his will, and how Xu Lu, who had no combat effectiveness at all, and the three hundred soldiers used force to persecute... Between his breath and breath, Yun Chongbo seemed to be able to feel that the huge figure called "Emperor" was still shrouded in this snowy region although it was thousands of miles away.

(It's not easy to have such an authority...) If you use this power to do good deeds, wouldn't it be easy to do great and great good deeds? )

In Yun Chongbo, this idea is still the first time, and it will soon be extended to a question that Yun Chongbo can't find the answer, if the emperor can do good things like this, do some great good things, then he will definitely be able to get a lot of support, and in this way, it will make Taiping Dao or other families who covet the throne lose the space to exist.

I don't think back to the bloody dream in Liupan Mountain that day, such loyalty and strength, but looking back, why can't it be understood as a bitter hatred for the emperor's surname? And if these hatreds are not generated... So, what could shake the emperor's rule?

(But, in this way, aren't all the emperors who were defeated bad themselves?) Again... Aren't they all lost to others because they didn't do a good job? )

Trying to recall Yan Hui's words at the beginning, but he couldn't remember it clearly for a while, Yun Chongbo just felt that he seemed to be very distrustful of the emperor, thinking that he must be evil in nature.

(But that doesn't seem right...) Who doesn't want to leave a good name? With such power, it will be a great good thing to do a little good, and many people will be happy and leave a good reputation... So, why are there so many emperors messing around? )

For several days, Yun Chongbo has been thinking hard about these things, but he can't find an answer for himself, and he can't figure out why, among the emperors who can easily "live for a hundred years", there are so many people who will end up "leaving a stench for ten thousand years". And when he didn't want to discuss it with anyone around him, he decided to keep the question away and ask it later.

(Alas...) Why didn't I think of these things when I first met Xiucai? He's sure to have a good answer... )

As an excellent hunter, Yun Chongbo thinks he has good observation skills, but he can't gain anything by climbing up to the stone pillar and coming down, and walking around the snow lake for a small half circle... Of course, this result is not a complete surprise.

(Am I worthy of him if I leave like this?) )

Come away empty-handed... But he didn't get any clear hints, Yun Chongbo felt that he should also be worthy of Bao Lone, no matter what, this trip was really hard.

Tell yourself like this, but in the deepest part of your heart, there is a faint unwillingness, Yun Chongbo always feels that if he goes back like this, Jiutian will definitely snicker coldly.

(And...) Maybe it's not a snicker, even in front of me, maybe she'll laugh! )

As soon as he thought of the Nine Heavens, the fire was very big, and Yun Chongbo really couldn't figure out why there were people in the Taiping Dao who looked at the undead so unpleasantly, but at the same time, he couldn't help but admire the strength of the Nine Heavens.

(No wonder the Jade Halal people said that the nine days are not under the frost...) Well, it's really powerful, but luckily she's not an enemy. But when you think about it this way, that Dharma King is even more terrifying... )

I clearly remember that Qu Xigangzhu was forcibly "invited back" from Qingzhou by Bange, but I really couldn't figure out why Bangor "invited" him, Yun Chongbo has always felt very distressed about this, and once asked Bao Lin for advice, but only got a vague perfunctory.

(Now the guru is gone...) It's even more confusing, alas, nine days is really... It's so easy to kill people, it's better to smell frost. )

If you look at it from a neutral point of view, Yun Chongbo's thoughts are really biased, from the grassland to northern Hebei, the blood on Xiao Wenshuang's hands will only be more than nine days, but even if he says it like this in person, Yun Chongbo, who is measured by completely different standards, probably won't admit it at all.

(Anyway, a little more serious!) )

Determined to be determined, but in the end, it was only the facts that were qualified to speak, and it took half an hour to still get nothing, and in the end, Yun Chongbo had to tell himself that probably, it was a mistake to understand Bao Lian's last words.

(But...) Perhaps, what kind of "annoying words" did he use in the end that the thief Yang said? )

Suddenly thinking of this possibility, Yun Chongbo perked up, and made up his mind at the moment, he wanted to rush back immediately, Fang took two steps, but remembered again: "It's still a long time to go back, it's better to wash your feet... I heard that the water in the snow lake is very comfortable for foot soaking. ”

He climbed the mountain road for a long time, his feet were already hot, soaked in the ice water, it was really comfortable, he exhaled a long breath, and saw that it was already noon, so he took out the dry food he had brought in advance from his arms, and gnawed slowly, looking at the surrounding snow-capped mountains, reflected in the lake, and was also happy.

Unexpectedly, the music changed, a piece of dry food was not half gnawed, and suddenly I heard an angry roar, which was sent on the side of the mountain, but it was "Are you fucking over?!" ”

In the roar, a piece of snow wrapped in a large stone cracked, and a person jumped out of it, because it was far away, and he couldn't see clearly, but the momentum of the halberd was clear, and it was obviously angry, and then another person jumped out of the snow next to him, and pulled the person and whispered something, as if it was an admonition, but he couldn't pull it, and he saw the two of them pulling and pulling, and they got closer.

After being stunned for a while, Yun Chongbo remembered that something was wrong

(By the way, that stone has been there since I arrived, so is it...) )

"You two... I've been squatting in that rock since the morning?! ”

Surprised by his discovery, Yun Chongbo admired the two of them for a while, at least, he didn't think he could endure squatting in the snow for so long like this.

(Maybe you haven't eaten yet...) )

On this side, I sympathize with a little bit of weakness, and on the other side, my arrogance is high, and it seems that I want to get out all the stuffiness that I have been squatting for a long time.

"Mommy's... Did you do that? I didn't find anything, I just didn't leave! Go around... I even turned to wash my feet and have lunch, you came out for an outing! Are you paid according to your attendance hours?! ”

"I... I'm not a spy. ”

The momentum was all suppressed, and even the voice of the voice became smaller unconsciously, Yun Chongbo explained two sentences, but it didn't sound right in the end.

"Hey, I said... What's wrong with me coming here? It's because you're not good at yourself and hide when you see someone, right? ”

As soon as the thinking is clear, the more I think about it, the more wrong it becomes, people who travel in the mountains will not hide when they see someone coming, and... This ghost place, according to Bao Lone, not even many locals in Jiwo know about it, and where are the tourists?

Unless...

"You're a spy here?!"

With a loud shout, he casually unsheathed the steel knife on his waist, Yun Chongbo was really overjoyed, and there were other forces paying attention, at least it showed that there was something suspicious here, although he didn't know what it was... But, even if it's blind, it's finally right, isn't it?

This shout scared the two people over there, and the man who came out hurriedly shook his hand and said, "Little brother is really good at telling jokes, we are just passing by for a while... If you are a spy and can't dodge, how can you take the initiative to run out to find you like this? ”

At this time, the two gradually approached, and they could already see the appearance clearly, Yun Chongbo saw that the two of them had big ears on one side, and the other face was like a full moon, but they were also honest, and saw that the two of them were really relaxed, and they had no luck, and they didn't feel that their hands were loose, and they said in their hearts: "It seems to be reasonable... However, I remember that my uncle once said something similar, and those who said that they couldn't show their faces showed their faces, either they were really frank and open, or... Hey, what's going on? ”

The man saw Yun Chongbo put down the knife, and he was also relieved, and said with a smile: "That's right, everyone is out to run poor, what kind of knife do you use..." Seeing that he could reach it, he reached out and patted Yun Chongbo on the shoulder.

But suddenly, the sword is flourishing!

At the same time as a backhand, Yun Chongbo finally remembered what Hua Shengrong said at the beginning.

“… Extinguish! ”

Instinctively shot out because of a startle, forcing the two of them to retreat together, Yun Chongbo was about to say goodbye, but when he saw that the faces of the two were already fierce, the person on that side sneered: "Okay, good... Do you know how to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger?! "My heart was Ling, and I suddenly understood, "They really want to kill their mouths." ”

Yun Chongbo was not afraid, looked left and right, and said in his heart: "The most important thing is not to have other ambushes... It's just two people, if they are masters, do they need to go together? Seeing that the two of them were bowing slightly, their eyes flickering, they didn't dare to make a mistake easily for a while, so they took a horizontal knife and waited for the two of them on the defensive.

Seeing that Yun Chongbo was on the defensive, he smiled and said, "Okay... See if you can hold it? He said that he did not force it, but reached into his arms.

Yun Chongbo said in his heart: "Hidden weapon? But he saw that the man had pinched a centipede and came out, and it was still wriggling, but it was alive. Yun Chongbo was shocked in his heart: "I actually put this thing in my arms...", and saw that the man's two fingers were slightly forced, pinching the centipede to death, and then rubbing his hands a few times, so that his palms were stained with blood, so he squatted down, pressed his hands into the snow, looked at Yun Chongbo, and smiled slightly, and suddenly hissed, not like human language, but like the sound of insects, and then lifted it up hard, and in the boom, the ice and snow surged, and it was condensed into a centipede shape that grew several feet!

(What is this thing?!) )

I was really shocked, when had Yun Chongbo ever seen this kind of spell? Before I could figure out whether to attack or be punctual, I saw that the person on that side jumped lightly on the back of the centipede, followed by a whistle, the ice centipede stood up half-up, the claws trembled for a while, and with a sigh, it pounced up, and the momentum was violent, so it was not terrifying.

Although he didn't know the depth, Yun Chongbo was not willing to back down, and said in his heart: "Whatever he is, let's cut it first!" "Hold the knife in both hands, make a backhand knife, and leap forward to meet it. At this time, his mind was clear, and he was looking for an opportunity, and he only regarded it as the old thing of hunting bears, although the shape of the ice centipede was terrifying, but it was not a real worm, and it was not poisonous if he thought about it, so it was not a big deal after all.

At that side, people didn't seem to expect that Yun Chongbo would take the initiative to forge ahead, and as soon as the panic appeared, Yun Chongbo had been swept by the ice centipede, followed by the sound of the Titica, and saw a crack coming out of half of the body, like a spider web, spreading in all directions.

Yun Chongbo made a great effort, his heart was very proud, and he didn't turn back, he went to fetch the short and fat man, and saw that he was desperately stuffing a dry cake into his mouth, and he didn't feel a little sympathetic: "It seems that he is really hungry..."

Although Yun Chongbo is brave, he does not dare to take it hard, he stops castration, picks up the knife flower, although he can't block it all, but he likes the cold clothes to be thick, although a few of them have missed the net, and there is nowhere to put his mouth for a while, but he listens to the behind, and the sound is gently chaotic, and when he looks back, he sees that the person on that side has somehow made it, and has repaired the ice centipede as new, and is driving the vicious pounce on it. When Yun Chongbo flashed a few times, he saw that Humpty Dumpty obviously felt that he was scheming, and his hands did not stop, and in a blink of an eye, hundreds of black bees had come out, and he actually knew how to divide into the art of joint attack, and he commanded it to turn into several teams, coming and going, and the end was pervasive.

(Well, it seems that it is not possible to use only the second uncle's knife technique...) However, there is no one else here, and it is also a good place. )

As soon as his mind moved, Yun Chongbo's body spun sharply, and the sword light in his palm overflowed, knotted like a wall, and in one breath, he had already cut nearly a third of the black bee, and the rest were also kept out of three feet.

The knife of the sea, facing the wall for ten years, breaking the wall!

For the first time, he completely controlled this strong move that should actually exist in the "future", and the joy of Yun Chongbo is really beyond words, and he has secretly practiced hundreds of times, and today he finally shows his results. But at the same time, he also understands his own shortcomings.

(If I could really grasp the feeling of that knife, I should have chopped all the black bees just now...) )

In addition, when the people on that side concocted the same method, condensed several huge toads, and forcibly collided with the same tactics as the daredevils, the protective wall formed by the condensed sword light was flawed in the trembling, this fact made Yun Chongbo confirm that his mastery of this sword technique still needed to be improved, but at the same time, he had a strange sense of familiarity.

(This big toad rushes like this...) So strange, seems to have seen it there? )

When the sword move could no longer be perfectly defended, Yun Chongbo removed the sword wall, and even more easily discarded the knife in his palm.

(Put bugs...) That's just the right trick... )

Although they didn't know why Yun Chongbo went to Gancheng by himself, the two of them did not miss the opportunity, one against centipedes, the other with a swarm of bees, and pounced viciously.

Standing quietly, clenching his fists, Yun Chongbo's body faintly revealed an orange-red light.

In the next moment, the light turned into a storm, like a storm that could swallow everything!

Orange Storm, Qianyuan Dragon Leap!

The wind whirled, and all the black bees were crushed to pieces, and when it turned to the seventh turn, the ice clams and ice centipedes could not support it, and they gurgled and began to decompose, and after that, the two people who had lost their credentials were even more swept by the storm, and they began to spin involuntarily.

Strictly speaking, this is different from Ao Fuqi's teaching, mixed with changes in Yun Chongbo's own thinking... Some, in the torrent of time, what he saw and gained from the peaceful place. Some, he would love to have the opportunity to see Taiping again, and what was shown to him. Strictly speaking, this can almost be regarded as Yun Chongbo's own "creative move".

(Finally usable...) In the future, you must show off to Wenshuang! )

About 20 turns later, Yun Chongbo's strength had weakened, and he slowly closed the momentum, and the two people who had already been turned around, as soon as the wind was collected, they couldn't even stand, they both fell down, and began to vomit profusely.

(Well, now the power is not enough...) If it can be transferred to the number of ninety-nine as expected, it is estimated that even a team of people can turn them into a disability... )

Feeling proud, Yun Chongbo cleared his throat and said, "This, don't worry, I just want to ask a few words..." I obviously have my fist closed, why is it still buzzing?

Slowly raising his head, Yun Chongbo didn't immediately understand what he was seeing.

On the mountain peak, there seems to be a strong wind blowing, and it seems to suddenly set off waves, white, surging... It seems to be slowly getting bigger.

I have been to the snowfields of northern Hebei, and Yun Chongbo is no stranger to this, and he has become bigger... It's because they're looming. It's because of his strong move just now, which has destroyed the balance that holds them on the mountain peak.

Avalanche!

"Grandma's..."

Before the foul language could be finished, the snow waves like thousands of horses and thousands of troops had already poured down, covering the stone pillars and submerging the snow lake.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

About two hours later, in one of the cheapest rooms in a very small inn in the city of Givo, two pale-faced men were desperately applying ointment all over their bodies.

"How could you come across such a hard hand... What kind of spy is there to be such a ability, how promising is it to be a thug! ”

Grumbling indignantly, Humpty Dumpty was slapped on the back of the head by the quarterarant.

"Beat the beater, you know the thug! It's because you only know how to fight that you can't stay in your hometown and come to us! ”

"If you can fight like this, it's a pity to be a thug, you should be a killer to be the most promising!"

A beat, but it led to his shoulder injury, and the person on that side grinned in pain, and only sizzled for a long time: "Fortunately, that avalanche separated us... Otherwise, you really won't be able to run away. ”

The Humpty Dumpty crossed his arms and glared, "What if you can't run away, fight with him!" The person snorted and said: "Yes, disgusting him with your vomiting...", he said and muttered: "I don't know who it is, I have to inform the big clan lord as soon as possible..." You don't need to know. ”

Shocked, the two of them could no longer move.

Murderous!

I don't know when, the murderous aura has filled the room, like a frog stared at by a poisonous snake, the two know that the danger is imminent, but they are intimidated by life, and they can't even move.

"Your Excellency... No, no... Predecessor... Yes..."

A sentence was broken three or four times, and the person on that side only struggled to say these few words, and was already sweating profusely.

"Me?"

As if it was funny, the man said, "I'm a killer." ”

In a word, the two of them almost fainted, but they heard the man say again: "But I'm not here to kill... I just want to ask a few words. ”

The person on that side was stunned, but he was still stiff-mouthed, and said, "Don't... Dream... I... We—" Then he heard the man say lightly: "Don't worry, I won't kill you." ”

“… Ghost Stepping * Clan Master, I have always respected it very much. ”

The origin was broken by his words, and the two of them were even more cold, only to hear the man still say unhurriedly: "So, as long as you tell me, you have all gone there, and what have you seen... You can pack up your things and leave. How is it? ”

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

It wasn't until it was nearly late that the embarrassed Yun Chongbo returned to Jiwo.

Luckily and skillfully, Yun Chongbo avoided the avalanche's main attack, but Rao was like this, it would take him nearly an hour to get out of the valley that was almost filled with ice and snow, and at this time, the two of them had already fled and disappeared.

Maybe it should be regarded as a harvest, along the direction of the two of them, Yun Chongbo found a very narrow and dangerous path, although the road was hit by mountain rocks and falling snow more than once, but when it was removed, it saved more than half of the time compared to when he came. If not, he was afraid that it would be at least another hour and a half before he returned.

Yun Chongbo, who returned to the city, was in tattered clothes, covered in snow and cement, and was in a bad mood because he lost the clues, his head was lowered, and he was very reluctant to greet people.

(It's best to uncle, they don't want to...) Otherwise, these two foul mouths... )

Although it was nearly evening, the streets were still very lively, and there were more pedestrians than in the daytime, and they were all very excited, as if something was going to happen.

(What's wrong?) )

Although he was very tired, Yun Chongbo naturally noticed the abnormality of his emotions, especially as he gradually walked towards the center of Jiwo, the flow of people became more and more dense. There were also some people who were obviously very excited, standing on street corners or intersections, clasping their arms in anger and shouting something.

(Change the land and return to the stream...) What is this? )

Vaguely hearing the term, but not knowing what it meant, Yun Chongbo only felt that this seemed to be a topic that made everyone uncomfortable, and as it was repeated over and over again, the mood on the street was also rising, as if it was about to burn. And although he wanted to try to ask, as soon as he saw his face, almost everyone walked away in anger or horror, and for a moment, he wondered if there was something painted on his face.

(I'm not that scary, am I?) … However, this place is also very close to Lord Qu's official residence, why don't you go over and have a look? )

------------------------------------------------------------------------

Originally, I just wanted to see if Qu Zhuling needed anything else in front of him, and asked Xu Lu for advice on what "changing the land and returning to the stream" was, but he didn't think about it, and when he was still ten steps away from the official residence, he couldn't walk.

There were nearly a thousand people gathered there, all of them with angry faces, and at the door, Xu Lu, who seemed to have a tougher attitude, and some soldiers who could already be seen to be cowering, with bows outstretched, and spears holding forward.

"What are you doing, do you want to rebel!"

It seems that he doesn't think about his own safety at all, Xu Lu suppresses everyone's emotions in a very high-profile manner, on weekdays, this is the will that even the Dharma King does not dare to confront head-on, but now, the situation seems to be very different. Although most people still didn't dare to face Xu Lu squarely, a few young and excited men roared back in louder voices.

"It's you people who don't give you a way to live!"

"It's all dead anyway, who are you scaring about?!"

"I said, those are all rumors!"

He was very excited, and a thin layer of sweat oozed from his face, but Xu Lu's words didn't have much effect. The rambling conversation formed a buzzing low vibration, which immediately completely engulfed his will.

"Still hard-mouthed, His Holiness has seen those letters with his own eyes..."

"It's just..."

"It's obviously pushing us to death..."

The intertwined and broken words made Yun Chongbo inexplicable, and at the same time, the crowd was pressing towards the door step by step, although the chest had been against the tip of the gun, but the soldiers who couldn't stop trembling obviously did not have the courage to stab at all, and this added more confidence to the other party.

“… Stop, stop, do you really want to rebel?! ”

This time, even Yun Chongbo also heard the smell of "lust and guilt" in the roar, and heard Xu Lu's fear. I don't understand why the people, who are usually in high awe of these officials and soldiers who represent the "emperor", are so excited, but fearing that things will intensify, he can't help but squeeze a few steps forward... It's just that before he has gone far, another firm and clear voice has already torn apart the situation that has already stretched as if it was about to collapse.

"I don't want to go back, but...*, I have to go back too!"

With a sudden shock, Yun Chongbo turned around, but because he had already entered the crowd, he didn't see who was talking at all, and at the same time, it seemed that he was so nervous that he couldn't stand it anymore, a soldier's hand trembled, and the arrow on the string flew out of his hand, and he was about to shoot through the front of the people!

After a moment of dead silence, an angry roar was raised, and after that, the people rushed forward like a tide of recklessness, and in the blink of an eye, Xu Lu and the soldiers were completely drowned.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

The rumors that will make the people so frightened that they dare to challenge the officers and soldiers, of course, will also cause trouble to the high-level, almost at the same time as in front of Qu Zhu's official residence, the front of the Dharma Palace is already brightly lit, and the costumed monks stand in front of the door, greeting one visitor after another.

Almost all the high-ranking monks and important people have gathered in the Dharma Palace, because, according to rumors, Bukong, who had visited Qu Zhu's official residence, had seen with his own eyes those "evidences" that could prove the truth of the rumors, or, on weekdays, these forces with high respect for the Dharma King could acquiesce to the Dharma King to keep some secrets, but at this time, the survival of the entire snowy region may depend on the authenticity of the news, so he can only "hurry up and obey the power".

came with the mood of "forcing the palace", but was unexpectedly entertained. As if prepared, His Holiness was already sitting in the council chamber and waiting.

A total of thirty-two butter candles illuminated this huge room as if it were day, and on the side of the long table, monks and laymen sat together, about forty people, the lowest status, who was also the lord of a temple, and in the middle of the table, there was a bundle of letters.

… The letter was taken from Qu Zhu and had been circulated by all those who had just attended.

It's quiet, it's quiet, every breath is clear and audible, and the air seems to have become a gelatinous substance that can be touched, weighing heavily on everyone's body.

“… So, this is the truth, the rumors, exactly right. ”

"For the last three years, Lord Qu has been discussing with the imperial court about restoring the land, and about a year and a half ago, he began to consider using the differences between Tantra and Bon to achieve his goals."

"To create chaos and to summon the army as a justification... Not this symbolic joke now, but an army that really has a profession of killing and destruction. ”

Pondering, he said: "When I was in Qingzhou, I had seen... How did they attack the natives who did not want to be brought under their jurisdiction, and hunted down the rebels such as Taiping Dao... If such a true army comes to the snowy lands... I can't imagine, and I don't want to imagine. ”

"But... Now, Lord Qu is dead, and this reason is even more sufficient than the civil war in the snowy region. Ladies and gentlemen, I admit... As long as this news gets back, I can't think of any reason to stop the imperial court. ”

If the original air has been "suppressed" like gelatin, and not empty talk, it is equivalent to mixing in a large bowl of flour called "despair", which makes people even more breathless.

Reciting a Buddha name, the oldest Seni said slowly: "The Dharma King is wise, you should have a bamboo in your chest... Why not? ”

Awakened by Xeni, everyone looked at the void together, but only saw a bitter smile.

"It's been nearly twenty years since I've been away from the snow, and I... What good ideas can I have? ”

After thinking about it, he said: "In fact, the whole world is not the king's land, I have been to Qingzhou for many years, and I have often heard the other side of the scholars talking, the matter of changing the land and returning to the stream, or sooner or later, it is inevitable... If not, how about we conform to the court's wishes? ”

A sentence was thrown, and the faces of the monks became even stiffer, and they all looked at each other secretly, but none of them dared to speak. However, although the imperial court worships the Buddha and respects the Tao, it is ultimately based on Confucianism... If this rogue official is set up, the school palace will be opened... Then... Oh, at that time, although my Tantric disciples must have been subservient to the king, but the remnants of Bon have not yet been cleared, such as the nine gods of war, fierce and abnormal, lawless, if they do something, it will inevitably hurt the dignity of the court, and even more affect the place..."

He was obviously talking and thinking, and then his thoughts suddenly broke through, and he said: "What's more, the people here are all Tantric believers, and they can't pay taxes and taxes. This, for the sake of these people who are devoted to the Dharma, we... It seems that we should think again. ”

Seni is more than ninety years old, well-informed, and has also studied the Confucian classics and the Central Plains character system, although these words were made in a hurry, but when they talk and think about it, they can actually justify themselves, as if they are true, but the monks around them all understand, and they still hesitate when they see that they are not empty, so some people can't help but say: "The Dharma King has been here for 20 years, such a major event, you must not make up your mind lightly." Someone else said, "What Guru Xeni said is really a golden word, which makes people suddenly lose their mouths." Another anxious said: "Actually, the snowy land is not summer soil, and it is not that our tantric disciples have worked hard to open up, and they will be taken away when they say 'change the land and return to the stream', so why..."

Bukong was silent for a while, and said, "Everyone's mind, I understand. Glancing left and right, he suddenly said, "Venerable Damian Cangjia, please come with this seat." He added, "Please stay less." ”

Seeing that the two of them avoided entering the quiet room, but no one knew what they were going to talk about, the monks were even more worried, and they gathered in groups of three or five, whispering. Zen Kabian and Tian Pa trailed to Seni's side, Seni nodded slightly, his eyes swept over, and the monks around him were all interested in avoiding it.

Chan Ka pursed his lips and frowned, "I think the king has seven points of will... What to do? Tian Pa sneered and said, "I knew that today..."

He didn't finish his intentions, but the two monks understood it very well: at the beginning, the two lines of Sera and Ganden were not resentful of the Dzhebang family, so they secretly clamped down on the former Dharma King with Qu Xigang Zhu, and there was a "golden bottle" thing, but it turned out to be a "total defeat" situation, Tian Pa sulked, and naturally had to spit it out first.

Xeni shook his head and said, "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to say more..." ”

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Actually, changing the land and returning to the river should be a better choice for the snowy region."

As soon as he entered the quiet room, he asked Da Mian Cangjia lightly, and after pondering for a while, Da Mian Cangjia also nodded slowly.

"I also know a little about Buddhism in the mainland... The believers are supplied, but there is no surplus, and there is no effort to serve, and the believers in the snowy region, they have given too much. ”

Nodding his head, he looked at the walls around him silently.

"I have lived in Qingzhong for many years, and I know very well about the affairs of the imperial court: although all those who have been given by hand are greedy for ink without authority, but the ones they take are not half of the Buddhas of the believers in the snowy region."

"Because of this kind of dedication, we can build everything like this in this kind of place... All the resources of this snowy region are actually consumed by our tantra..."

After a pause, he added, "... Although, in the beginning, it was Tantra that opened up this snowy region, but now, it is also our Tantra that completely blocks all hope for the development of this snowy region! ”

Shocked by his words, Da Mian Cangjia bowed slightly and said, "You... Do you want to be 'reinvented'? In his voice, he trembled slightly.

"Nope."

Shaking his head, he smiled bitterly.

"A millennium foundation... I don't want to be defeated at my hands, and even if I have the heart, I can't do it. ”

"After twenty years away from home, I will come back and shake the foundation, if I really do... Perhaps, there won't even be a chance to move the gold bottle again, right? ”

After being silent for a while, Da Mian Cangjia silently clasped his hands together and said, "The temple masters of the three major temples, they have indeed completely become 'merchants' and 'landlords'. ”

Hehe smiled, and said: "As for what to do, I also have some ideas, some methods that suddenly came to mind when I went to Rezhen, and everything that is happening now makes me see it more clearly." ”

"With only one bangor, it is impossible to appease the anger of the imperial court, if you don't agree to change the land and return to the stream, I am afraid that the army of the imperial court will appear."

"In retrospect, the origin of all this, which can be exploited, is the dispute between Bon and Tantra... However, this is also a pointless dispute. ”

"Raising the soup to stop the boiling is like drawing wages from the bottom of the kettle... If we can remove the root cause of the civil strife in the snowy region, we will also have a little more capital to talk to the court and the Buddha. ”

"So, I think it's time to put an end to the Bon controversy, to give Bon the status and respect it deserves, to give them recognition, and to let them come to the sun."

The pupils contracted slightly, and Da Mian Cangjia looked at the void, with surprise, surprise, and a slight fear in his expression.

"Thermal vibration... Are you..."

"Hmm."

Nodding calmly, he said: "It's enough to seal the town for hundreds of years, and it's time for the Span Mu group who are sleeping in the heat to see the light of day again..."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

"If Qu Xigangzhu doesn't even understand this severity..."

The voice dragged on for a long time, and Seni looked at the two of them more slowly, and nodded knowingly, but he didn't continue, but said, "Then what should be done this time?" ”

Chan Kabian thought for a while and said: "Qu Zhu is dead, he must always have an explanation to the court, a Bangor, I'm afraid..." ”

"Anyway, those things just now can only prove that Lord Qu... Qu Zhu once had this discussion, but when the old man looked at the payment, he didn't see the seal of the big uncle... In today's Central Plains, the beacon fire is about to flourish, and the imperial court may not have much intention to use force, in my opinion..."As he was speaking, he stopped when he saw Bukong and Da Mian Cangjia coming out one after the other.

Suddenly, I heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, and I didn't care that there was a meeting inside, and when I bumped into it, I slammed the door and broke in. Just an ordinary monk, his clothes are messy and dirty, and his expression is panicked.

"King Yufa, just now the people in the city gathered in chaos, and the official residence of the envoy has been burned!"

When a sentence was spoken, everyone in the audience was shocked, and their eyes moved, and they said, "How is Lord Xu?!" ”

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Fortunately, Xu Lu is not dead, otherwise, there would really be no way to turn around this time..."

The crowd has dispersed, leaving only His Holiness and his predecessor, the current "Venerable Damian Canggyal".

According to reports, just now, the incident escalated due to the refusal of both sides to back down, and turned into a weapon fight between soldiers and civilians.

Despite the absolute superiority in numbers, in the face of these professional soldiers armed with sharp weapons, the people were still doomed to suffer, and more than 100 people were killed and seriously injured, and at the same time, they also killed more than 30 soldiers alive, threw torches into the official residence, and captured Xu Lu, and if it wasn't for Yun Chongbo's timely intervention and forced out Xu Lu, I don't know what would have happened.

With overwhelming force, Yun Chongbo separated the crowd and shouted loudly to calm them down... Of course, his "speech" actually did not play much role, what really stopped the masses was the power of him cutting off the part that was already on fire with a knife and protecting the second half of the official residence, especially the Qu Zhu Spiritual Hall.

"Now, Lord Qu's coffin and Lord Xu have been placed in the Dharma Palace, as long as they don't go out... Nothing should happen. ”

Blood and fire were always the most exhilarating medicine, and it seemed that it had "gone too far" anyway, and then the commotion continued to appear, and gradually evolved into a turmoil that almost swept the entire city, so that everyone had to rush to end the meeting and rush back to their respective places to calm the situation. Only Damian Cangjia stayed alone. In a very tactful manner, he still hoped that the other party would try to retract the resolution he had just made.

… Just now, in the chaos, most of the monks seem to have felt hopeless, after the three major temple masters have clearly stated that "it is absolutely unacceptable to change the land and return to the stream", the most extreme hawkish position appeared, with "there is no way to retreat, it is better to fight" as a call, they said that since it is impossible to meet the requirements of the imperial court, it is better to spread out the words and explain it, although in the end this opinion was suppressed, but for Qu Zhu's accusation, it was confirmed in the Jun decree that would be announced the next day.

"Even if the internal strife of the Bon religion is eliminated, with the power of the snowy region, not even a small finger of the emperor can resist it... Qu Xigangzhu, please think about it carefully. ”

Shaking his head silently, Bukong said lightly: "Da Mian Cangjia... You've always been cautious and delicate, but now we can't hold back. ”

"Yes, Xu Lu is not dead, which makes you feel a little relieved, but in my opinion, it will be more dangerous."

"Why, everyone knows about this matter?"

“… Before today's meeting, only you and I had read those letters, and even Xu Lu, he 'should' not know... But if that's the case, what's happening on the streets right now? ”

"And if you were to connect all this with the death of Bao Shan, and the death of Ji Xiang Yu and Bao Vajra before, what would you think?"

Shrinking his gaze slightly, Da Miancang Jia said, "What do you mean...?" ”

Nodding deeply, he said, "The chess game has already started... Qu Zhu's exit won't change anything, everything is still going according to plan... Push these things that you and I have decided to bury out of the water, and use the image of Bon to stir up disputes again and again... Da Mian Cangjia, we don't want to confront the 'emperor', but what if others don't leave a 'way out' for us to go at all? ”

"You and I both know that as long as we're in the snow... We have the capital, some of the capital that we can at least bargain with. ”

"What's more, there's no reason why we don't choose to do so... This is the 'public opinion', which you have just seen with your own eyes, and the opinion of the vast majority of senior monks who support it, and go against it... Even His Holiness will not end well. ”

"Or... Someone... Someone is also hoping... Want to take advantage of this opportunity to make most of the temple owners unhappy with me? ”

The muscles in his cheeks trembled slightly, and after a while, Da Mian Cangjia slowly bowed and said, "The Dharma King is above, and Da Mian Cangjia respectfully accepts the decree." ”

After looking at him silently for a long time, Bukong suddenly let out a long breath and said, "No... There's no need to be so nervous. Damian Cangjia, you may have misunderstood me. ”

"I really don't want to change my life... I admit it. But at the same time, I don't want to challenge the emperor, that would be foolishness that will be sure to lose. ”

"The decision just now is to appease the monks who are about to fall into a frenzy, and in the end, I still hope to be able to impress the court with 'sincerity', I think... They probably don't want to use troops here either. ”

"I will do my best to show our sincerity. Please, trust me..."

When Bukong said this, he paid more attention to every expression of Damian Cangjia, and suddenly, he said without a head: "It turns out that you already know? ”

With a sudden shock, Da Mian Cangjia said in a trembling voice: "What did you say? But when he saw that he was not empty, he let out a long breath and straightened up.

"I see, no wonder you suddenly stopped doubting, no wonder you began to be willing to tolerate and help me, no wonder... You're going to pretend you don't even understand the old guys' overtures... It turns out that you already know. ”

His face changed several times, and finally became a helpless calmness, and Da Mian Cangjia said in a low voice: "Yes, I know." ”

Looking at Da Mian Cangjia with an interesting eye, Bukong said lightly: "I... I swore to me that I would never tell you this truth... But it seems that he broke his promise. ”

The corners of his mouth twitched, and Da Mian Cangjia said, "Thank you." ”

His eyes gradually turned sharp, and he said slowly: "Then you should also understand, how much you owe me..." Seeing that Da Mian Cangjia bowed silently, he sneered, but it was obviously a little cruel.

"Then, if you 'know', work hard, try to pay me back what you owe!"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey, nephew, if you can't afford it again, there will be no excitement to see?"

"What the hell is hilarious... Don't bother me! ”

Flying up with a kick, although he didn't kick Hua Shengrong, he also forced him away a few steps, Yun Chongbo turned over and pulled the quilt on his head hard.

Trekking into the snowy ridge that stretched for dozens of miles, after a fight, he climbed out with great difficulty, and then escorted Xu Lu and his party into the Dharma Palace with a suppression of one enemy and a thousand, and carried Qu Zhu's coffin in the middle, especially, because the quality of the coffin was really not flattering, after being turned a few times, it actually cracked from the side, and smashed a large amount of lime and Qu Zhu's body into Yun Chongbo's face...... Yesterday, for Yun Chongbo, it was definitely a day that he didn't want to remember at all.

It was busy until almost the early hours of the morning that Yun Chongbo got a chance to rest, and although his body was covered in snow and mud, he still fell headlong on the bed.

(This way, the beds are dirty...) Forget it, I'll wash it myself tomorrow ... )

In the middle of the fascination, Hua Shengrong and Yang Jizhi flew out to disturb people, of course, Yun Chongbo was very unhappy, but fortunately, after a few rushes, they disappeared on their own with great interest, and did not ask Yun Chongbo to get up from the bed.

After sleeping like this until nearly noon, Yun Chongbo got up from the bed and pushed the door, only to find that Hua Shengrong and Yang Jizhi were still staying in the yard, and they didn't go to "watch the excitement".

"You two..."

When I asked, I found out that when Yun Chongbo was sleeping, the world had changed greatly, and he issued a decree announcing that the Bon religion was originally an old legend in the snowy region, and there was no contradiction with Tantra, and now it is only some people who use the name of the god of war to create chaos, and their intentions are sinister.

"Oh, that's good, those guys were supposed to be under a pretense."

"But, nephew..."

If it is only here, of course it is very good, but at this point, the tone suddenly changed, changing the meaning of covering up for Qu Zhu a few days ago, pointing out that he was the instigator behind the Nine Gods of War, pointing out that he hoped to create chaos here, in order to get an excuse to promote "changing the land and returning to the stream".

"What?!"

I was really surprised. Although Bangor had already pointed to it, in Yun Chongbo's heart, it was really not convincing, but now, when the Dharma King, who represents the supreme will of Tantra, also made such a clear statement, it was really terrifying.

"And, what the hell is changing the land and returning to the stream?!"

"Changing the land and returning to the stream... Speaking of which, the words are long. ”

In a gentle voice, Fa Zhao slowly stepped out of the room and said: "Lao Qu put up orders in the southwest in his early years, and he also knows a little about this, if the flower donor is not too chattering..." ”
