In the dark secret room, a faint flame of "puff puff" danced above an oil lamp, and a slight cool breeze rushed in through the ventilation hole above.

A withered face flickered in response to the firelight, he played with a piece of warm jade in his hand, and sat quietly next to the stone table, while behind him stood respectfully two black-clothed and black-covered guards, obviously in awe of the old man in front of him, and he didn't even dare to gasp.

I don't know how long it took to freeze like this, and suddenly, I only heard a loud sound of "hula", and the stone door in the secret room was pushed open from the outside, and in front of him was an old man in a white robe who was also not small, because of the darkness, he couldn't see the specific appearance, but the empty left arm sleeve shook without a master, which made people extremely impressed.

The white-robed old man walked straight to the stone case, sat down on the stone pier, he reluctantly looked at the old man who had been waiting for him for a long time through the firelight, and couldn't help but be startled, and then seemed to figure out everything in it, and said with relief: "It turned out to be you!" Yes, and you're the only one who can make the whole plan so interlocking! ”

The old man smiled slyly, took the Wen Yu in his hand into his arms, and then approached the white-robed old man and said, "I'm sorry, you haven't been able to let you know the identity of your father-in-law. But I also fulfilled my promise, and since you have chosen to take this step, I promise to see you once! ”

"I've always been wondering what kind of person the boss of the 'Five Elders' is, and when I see it today, I get what I want!"

"Each other! You have been secretly contacting the imperial court for more than ten years, if it weren't for me helping you mediate, do you think your identity could still be hidden so thoroughly? The old man then said, "When the Yellow Turban Thieves rebelled against the East Window, you thought that handing over Tang Zhou as a substitute for the dead ghost would make it impossible for everyone to suspect you forever, but don't forget, those secret letters you wrote to the imperial court were really detained by my father, although you used a pseudonym, but I know that it is definitely not Tang Zhou." You said in the letter that you led more than 10,000 people to submit to the imperial court, I knew that you were not a simple role in the Yellow Turban Thief, and the hard work finally paid off. ”

If people who knew the outbreak of the Yellow Turban Rebellion would definitely remember an episode, that is, a month before preparing for the uprising, Tang Zhou, a disciple of the Yellow Turban Army, told the court and confessed Ma Yuanyi, who was the inner response in the Beijing Division, which directly led to Ma Yuanyi being split by the car and more than 1,000 people.

At that time, Zhang Jiao, the general of Tiangong, was forced to choose to revolt in advance, which suddenly disrupted the original deployment plan and caused more people to lose their lives.

Just now, from the conversation between the two elders just now, I actually learned a new news, the whistleblower Tang Zhou turned out to be just a ghost for the dead, and the real mastermind behind the scenes turned out to be this white-robed old man.

"I am fighting for power and profit, and I just want to spend my old age with peace of mind, but why do you just refuse to let me go, and you are still forcing each other everywhere!"

The white-robed old man burst into tears, as if recalling the past.

"As long as your hands are stained with the blood of your companions for a day, you are doomed to never turn back for the rest of your life!" The old man then said sternly, "Zhang Jiao is incompetent, Yuan Lang is cowardly, and Zhang Ning is even more of a woman, how can you follow them to create your own world." Only by following Bengong can you regain what you once lost! ”

"Haha, haha! Reclaim what was lost? I'm afraid you asked me to join your 'Five Elders' because you want to use me as a pawn to achieve your world, I Zhang Baiqi really made a wrong step and entered a place of no return, ah ......! ”

Zhang Baiqi?

That's right, the old man in the white robe is Zhang Baiqi, the deputy commander of the Yellow Turban Army, and now I see that his eyes are bloodshot, and his gray hair is even more white overnight, unspeakable vicissitudes.

"It doesn't matter what you say, you don't scold anything, you are the fifth elder of the 'Five Elders', and you are also the traitor of the Yellow Turban Thief. But the difference here is that if you are obedient to me, you can only be humiliated in front of others! The old man changed his gentle tone and said, "Bai Shuai, you just wait to take over the Yellow Turban Army, as for Yuan Lang, when he has already collapsed with the collapse of the dungeon, he will stay in it forever, haha!" ”

Zhang Baiqi covered his face with his hands and couldn't help crying bitterly, he wailed several times, as if expressing the depression in his heart for so many years.

"You don't have to be sad, if it weren't for your own ambitions, how could you be so happy to cooperate with us! In short, my father promises you that on the day it is done, Jizhou will be yours! ”

“…… I hope you keep your promise today! Otherwise, even if I Zhang Baiqi is broken, I will definitely fight with you! ”

"Hehe, haha, okay, I like you like this, if you have a greedy desire, you have the opportunity to continue to cooperate!" When the old man saw Zhang Baiqi turn around and leave the secret room, he suddenly shouted, "Don't play tricks, pinch your father and daughter to death, my father is like pinching two ants to death!" ”

"Humph! Ants get angry, and it hurts to bite!! ”

"Hula!" With a bang, the stone door closed heavily, and the sound and shadow of Zhang Baiqi disappeared from the secret room.

After Zhang Bai rode away, the withered old man beckoned backwards, and the black-clothed guard behind him stepped forward and obeyed: "What does the master command?" ”

"Ah Da, you continue to spy on Zhang Baiqi's father and daughter. Ah Er, you go to the dungeon to verify if there are really no survivors, and remember, anyone who interferes with our plans, no matter who it is, will be killed! …… Why, are you still thinking about the life and death of the old seventeen and eighteen? Remember, if you enter the 'night owl' for a day, you will be a 'night owl' for the rest of your life, and you will also be a ghost of the 'night owl' when you die! From the day you were rejected by the imperial court, your fate was destined not to belong to you! ”

The old man said excitedly, his voice couldn't help but become sharp, in this dark and secluded underground secret room, it was obviously particularly terrifying.

"Yes! To receive the grace of the Master's reconstruction, we must always have the determination to dedicate ourselves! ”

The man in black called Ah Da answered.

……

As soon as he returned, he immediately ordered the housekeeper to close the door and refuse all visits, because he knew that the sky of the entire Changshan County had fallen, and it would soon cause an uproar.

Zhang Baiqi didn't dare to go back to his wing, he hurriedly walked to his study, he retreated all the servants nearby, closed the door of the study, and then he unscrewed a relief button on the bookshelf, and then the bookshelf suddenly shifted sideways, showing a black hole that could accommodate a person to enter, and finally he paused slightly, and finally bent down to get in.
