Chapter 495: Killing the Priest
Hearing the shouting outside, the two of them were stunned at the same time.
You have been in Heaven and Earth for so long, and there has never been a guest at the door.
The little marquis quietly put away the sound barrier, and replied loudly: "I know, who is it?"
"A guest from the Golden City."
The two of them looked happy.Since they came from the city.It must be Wang Xuanye's men.They stood up and walked out of the door at the same time.
The management of Heaven and Earth City is very strict, ordinary people are not allowed to enter the city, and the two of them come to the city gate and shout to the people below.
Sure enough, he was Wang Xuanye's confidant, and when he was in Jincheng, the little marquis often met with him.
"Gongzi Chen, Princess Martina, the young city lord asked the little one to come over, inform you two to go back quickly, and all the people of Jincheng are waiting for you two to go back and spread the teachings." Someone said so.
"But, we're not done yet." Martina said.
"Why don't you two talk to the adults inside, it's been almost two months since Jincheng declared his belief in Pantheism, but everyone is just worshipping the gods, and they don't know anything about the doctrine and purpose of this religion." The person who came said with a straight face: "As the saying goes, sincerity is spirituality, but everyone can't be sincere."
The two of them glanced at each other.It was obvious that this was Wang Xuanye's excuse for recalling them.Something big must have happened in Jincheng.
"Okay, let's go to the High Priest and discuss this with them."
When the great priests heard what they said, they did not object, but not only agreed, but also decided to send nine priests to the city to assist them in their work.
The two of them were overjoyed, and after a simple tidying up, they couldn't wait to leave Heaven and Earth City.
As soon as they left for a while, the army master Sang Tifan appeared in Nancheng, he first changed himself into a neat dress, freshened himself carefully, and ordered his men to bring back the two Jincheng people.
The men soon returned, and the report said, "Your Excellency, the two men you were looking for have left."
"Leave." Sang Tifan's eyes widened: "Who let them go?"
"During the day, Kaneshiro sent someone over to express his urgent request, and the great priests not only agreed to the two of them to leave, but also sent nine priests with them."
Sang Tifan slapped the table angrily: "Nonsense, you even let people go without my consent.
"Your Excellency, do you want to send troops to stop them, they must not have gone far."
"No, it's a long time coming." Sang Tifan gritted his teeth and said, if it weren't for the nine priests accompanying him, he would definitely personally lead his troops to chase after him.
Nine priests, an envoy from the Golden City, plus Xiao Chen and Medina, a group of twelve people hurried to gallop one hundred and sixty miles before dusk.
There is a small river in front of you, and the little marquis suggests that you set up camp here and continue to set off early tomorrow morning.
The messenger was very kind to the priests, and he helped to set up the tents, and he was very busy preparing dinner for them.
By the river, Medina washes the scarf.
The little marquis came over from behind, and arranged the sound barrier while people were not paying attention.
"Brother Chen, do we really want to go back with these nine guys?" Medina glanced back and said, "As soon as they get to the Golden City, everything will be revealed over there."
He smiled and said, "Don't worry, these people will never have a chance to enter Jincheng alive."
"Well, did the messenger tell you what happened at home?" She asked again.
The little marquis shook his head: "I haven't said yet, after all, there are a few outsiders here, but I guess it must be a lot of trouble.
A few minutes later, the messenger called them back to dinner.
A roast lamb, a large pot of vegetable and mushroom soup, and a few pots of wine.
Medina winked at Xiao Chen, meaning to use poisoning to make it faster and cleaner.
The little marquis smiled.In fact, there is no need for him to poison him.This job has already been done.
The nine priests said together that they could not drink alcohol.A pot of mushroom soup would naturally belong to them.Xiao Chen knew very well that the messenger had put cartilage powder in the soup.
In a few moments, all nine of them were lying on the ground, unable to lift the slightest strength.
"You ...... What do you want to do?" The leading priest asked tremblingly, for he saw the messenger show his blade.
"Hehe, your time of death has come." The messenger waved his dagger and asked Xiao Chen, "Gongzi Chen, how do you say to solve them?"
The little marquis smiled faintly: "I stabbed them all one by one, and then I dug a pit and buried them.
"Of course."
The messenger is a ruthless man, and sure enough, according to the request of the little marquis, he stabbed one by one, clean and quick.
At noon the next day, the three of them rushed to Jincheng.
The gates of the city were closed as when they left, and neither the caravans nor the people of the city were allowed to enter or leave.
Coming to the City Lord's Mansion, the father and son of the Wang family have been waiting for a long time, and both of them have unconcealed anxiety on their faces.
"Uncle, Brother Wang, what the hell is going on?" The little marquis asked straight to the point.
Wang Tai was very eager to speak, and he glanced at his son and said, "You should tell Xiao Xian's nephew.
It turned out that four days ago, someone claimed to be the messenger of Hou Chengda, the capital of the Western Bone, and was ordered to come to Jincheng to greet Wang Taiji and his son.
What a greeting, this is just a high-sounding excuse, he was ordered to check on the situation here, and then report back to Cheng Da.
Because of his arrival, the father and son were almost thrown into a mess, and they invited the people into the city, and they set up a banquet with enthusiasm, and delayed the time for various reasons, until the other drank the poisonous wine with cartilage.
The person is detained, but the next question is how to fool Cheng Da, and the messenger will definitely attract his attention after a long time.
"Brother Xiao Xian, we really can't do anything about it." Wang Taiji said: "According to the normal situation, the messenger should have set off yesterday. In fact, we thought about bribing the messenger with money, but he was a dead eye, and he refused to cooperate when the price reached 300,000 taels of gold."
Wang Xuanye added: "Actually, even if the other party chooses to cooperate, my father and I don't dare to be gullible, in case he ostensibly agrees, once he is free, he will betray us again."
The little marquis frowned and thought for a while, and said, "The messenger must not be put back, we can't joke with the lives of the whole city.
"It's too dangerous." Wang Taiji shook his head and said, "This is a matter of nine deaths, how can the old man let Xiao Xian's nephew be in danger."
The little marquis smiled: "As the saying goes, wealth and wealth are sought in danger, and your Wang family and I have long been grasshoppers on the same rope.
Wang Xuanye's face tightened: "The key figures have all been killed, but they are not exterminated, and in the end, some people's lives have been spared.
