Chapter 541: Jupiter's Corpse Position
In the current dynasty, in addition to the emperor, the person who holds the greatest power, when Qin Zhi, there are not a few people who stammered him, but there is one person he can't compare, this person was famous more than 20 years ago, and he was famous for a while, although he rarely shows his head now, but there is more of a sense of mystery. Whenever he appeared, everyone in the court was respectful, as if the holy king was there.
This person is the great eunuch of the dynasty who has served the emperor since he was a child, and Zhao Kuo regards him as a confidant, and he has mercy on the father-in-law!
He is the officialdom predecessor of all the people in the city, and he is also the top master in the hearts of all the rivers and lakes outside the city.
Qin Zhi also entered the city at this time, looked at each other from a distance, and asked with a smile: "Poor father-in-law, this strange star Five Elements Array is really not easy to break into, right?" ”
Qin Zhi's words made Xun Mengqi confirm the identity of Lianhuahai, and he hurriedly hugged his fists and said: "Dongfang Dream has seen Uncle Shi!" ”
Pian Huahai smiled and waved his hand to signal that Xun Mengqi didn't need to be polite, and he said to Qin Zhi again: "I'm ashamed to say that Pian Mou went deep into a hundred and ten zhang away, but when he saw more and more ghost gateposts, he almost lost his way, so he could only return the same way." ”
"So, those people outside have to go to the formation first, maybe someone who knows the formation will break through." In front of Xun Mengqi, Qin Zhi did not hide his intention to use the heroes as cannon fodder, he saw that Xun and Lian seemed to know each other, so he asked: "This little girl is your ......"
"He's the leader of the Sun and Moon God Sect, but he's not a little girl!" Lianhuahai's tone suddenly became a lot colder, people like them are physically flawed, they are not complete men, and they are criticized, they will inevitably be a little sensitive, Qin Zhi may just be an unintentional sentence, but it will make Lianhuahai angry.
But Xun Mengqi doesn't care, it's a fact that he is flawed, and he can't complain about being ridiculed by others, just ignore him when he's in a good mood, and kill him if he's in a bad mood.
"Oooh...... Look at my memory, it's Qin's gaffe. Qin Zhi patted his head again and again to apologize, he felt from the tone of the sea of pity that the relationship between the two must be extraordinary, at this time he secretly glanced at Xun Yunan, and Xun Yunan immediately whispered to him what happened before.
Lian Huahai didn't bother with Qin Zhi anymore, no matter how he said it, he was also the second-in-command in the court, and the respect he deserved must be given.
"He can't be the first to go in, Lord Qin should find someone else."
Qin Ren nodded happily and said, "That being the case, then Qin will go out of the city to find someone again." After saying that, he and Xun Yunan turned around and left.
Xun Mengqi had to listen to the words of the seniors, he glanced at the peasant woman beside Lianhuahai, dressed plainly and looking mediocre, but with the same attitude as Lianhuahai, there was an indescribable nobility in her gestures, as if she was born with elegance.
"Uncle Shi and this woman must be easy to look like!" Xun Mengqi guessed in his heart. Although he had never seen the sea of flowers, he felt that the two of them should not be like this.
Of course, the sea of flowers has to be disguised, if a real person shows up, it will not be good to hide in the city to find out the news of the emperor for the emperor. Of course, the people in the court and China also know that this is not his face, but they have always heard that he is alone, without apprentices and relatives, and this peasant woman has been following him since he went to the tomb, could it be that he has that hobby?
People are vicious, and when they encounter incomprehensible things, they always think from the dirtiest point of view, especially the things of men and women. But they can only think about it, those who dare to criticize the sea of flowers are either not born yet, or they are dead!
On the side of King Rui, they each whispered about the relationship between Lian and Xun, many of them didn't know the legendary story of one person in the Hidden Palace, and even if someone knew, they didn't know who the person who passed it on was, so they opened their brains and speculated wildly. Lianhuahai took advantage of this time to whisper to Xun Mengqi: "You shouldn't come." ”
"The East knows." Xun Mengqi nodded yes. Obviously, the appearance of the sea of flowers means that Zhao Kuo is also involved, and the forces of the DPRK and China alone are very complicated, not to mention that there are so many people in the rivers and lakes outside, this is a pool of muddy water, and it is difficult for those involved to get out of it.
The forces in the DPRK and China should be three parties, one side is the Taizong lineage, that is, King Xiang, King Rui, and their minions Chang, Duan, Xu, Yi, etc., one side is the Taizu lineage, Zhao Kuo and his cronies Lianhuahai, and more unknown people hidden in the shadows The third party does not belong to the Zhao family's forces, but it is also a pivotal figure, such as Qin Zhi. At first, Xun Mengqi thought that Qin Zhi was the spokesperson of the emperor, but now it seems that Pian Huahai is, and Zhao Kuo does not need a literati to replace him in the tomb, so Qin Zhi's appearance is only for himself, and Tie Yingxia is his follower.
As for Xun Yunan and Cui Lanyue, it is not yet known who the master of the Hayang Gate is, so it is difficult to determine which force the two are loyal to.
After sorting out the relationship between these people, the situation suddenly became much clearer, but Xun Mengqi didn't expect that the government and the opposition side, which had abundant resources, would be helpless against the Qixing Five Elements Array, and had to rely on the help of the people in the rivers and lakes, which was a bit funny.
"But since you are already here, then follow me, I will definitely protect you, this is what I owe Dongfang Lan." The sea of flowers made a promise.
Xun Mengqi knew that Pian Huahai felt guilty about the death of his master, but when it came to the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Armor, they were in different camps from each other, and in the end, it was inevitable that they would meet each other, so it was better to refuse his kindness.
"Uncle Xie is worried, but I think it's better to separate, after all, your identity is sensitive and I am afraid of criticism."
Lian Huahai didn't agree or object, just glanced at Xun Mengqi, turned around and talked to the peasant woman beside her.
Xun Mengqi didn't understand what he meant, so he could only stand quietly behind him, waiting for the first batch of people to break into the formation.
……
Not long after, Cui Lanyue entered the city gate with five middle-aged swordsmen from the Hengshan faction, and as the first batch of intruders, they were full of confidence in themselves. If it is destined to die in the Qixing Five Elements Array, then it is better to fight to the death, in case it breaks through the formation, won't the Nine Heavens Divine Dragon Armor become a thing in the bag? For the sake of the gods, all the sacrifices are worth it.
Xun Yunan simply explained the situation to Zhao Zhen and Lianhuahai, and Lianhuahai immediately said: "They sent people, so we can't be left behind, Master Bu, you can go to the formation as a representative of the imperial court." ”
After the sea of flowers was finished, before the vulture could reply, Xun Yunan hurriedly said: "The subordinates feel that they don't have to bother Master Bu for the first time, let's let the brothers of the Praetorian Guard go." ”
Hearing this, the vulture nodded hurriedly, he initially agreed to Qin Zhi to break into the battle, because the other party was leading the way with Xun Mengqi, he wanted to do something secretly, but now that Xun Mengqi was stopped, of course he didn't want to be cannon fodder.
Pity Huahai glanced at the vulture coldly, and said lightly: "How can you break your promise?" Do you want the court to make people laugh? ”
The tone of the sea of pity was unquestionable, and Xun Yunan had no choice but to secretly say "take care", frowned and turned around and left the ghost door.
Xun Yunan should not belong to Zhao Tuo's lineup, but he actually said good things for Bu Vulture, which made Xun Mengqi a little puzzled, and the relationship between the government and the opposition that had just been sorted out became a mess again.
The vulture looked at Zhao Zhen with a bitter face, but Zhao Zhen nodded at him with a smile, and his expression seemed to say: "Look at me, there is no way, who told you to boast about Haikou and say that it is no problem, the sea of pity is here, I can't do anything." ”
The vulture's heart was cold, and he was silent. At this time, the five people of Hengshan faction successively jumped to the odd star position with light skills, and jumped to several positive star positions according to the guidance of the officers and soldiers of the Praetorian Guard, and then after that, the first two figures could not be seen.
When it was the turn of the vulture, he turned his heart sideways, glared at Xun Mengqi viciously, and then flew up and jumped to the strange star position, he didn't stop, he followed closely behind the five people of the Hengshan faction, and disappeared at the end of the darkness after a while.
The first section of the Qixing Five Elements Array was a positive star position that had been verified by sacrificing many sergeants, and then there were more and more ghost gate posts, and if you were not careful, you would lose your way in the dark, step on the wrong star position, and die on the spot. If Zhao Tuo's sergeants or King Rui's Praetorian Guards are all masters equivalent to vultures, they may be able to fight for their lives not to open up a correct route to break into the formation, but the number of masters is limited after all, most people's light skills can't fly three or five zhang away at all, and the master of the trial formation will die one less, so Zhao Tuo thought of the method of summoning people from the rivers and lakes to break into the formation, aiming to extend the correct route to break into the formation, drawing pictures and texts little by little, and there will always be a day when it passes.
Not long after the first batch of intruders left, Cui Lanyue brought in three flowerless valley women, and King Rui also sent his sergeants, and a total of five people from both sides broke into the Five Elements Formation one after another.
Batch after batch, seeing more than ten batches of intruders, Pian Huahai felt that the time was ripe, so he said to Xun Mengqi: "You just said that you want to break into the formation alone, this is okay, but you must follow the route I gave you, otherwise I will never let you leave." ”
"I am willing to listen to the teachings of my uncle!" Xun Mengqi hurriedly clenched his fists. Lian Huahai wanted to persuade Xun Mengqi not to call himself Uncle Ancestor anymore, after all, he was the same sect and different religions, but seeing his very respectful expression, he didn't say those meaningless words.
"King Xiang began to take people down to the tomb last year, looking for two ways, the kidnapper Zhang hit the thief hole and walked all the way alone, after many mechanisms, after thousands of difficulties and dangers, the three roads finally came to the end, but all of them were blocked by the Qixing Five Elements Array." When Lian Huahai said this, he deliberately lowered his voice, "It was at that time that the official family sent someone to secretly infiltrate King Xiang's team and knew about the existence of the Qixing Five Elements Array. ”
Xun Mengqi obviously didn't expect that Pian Huahai would tell the truth, and he asked with some surprise: "At that time, did Zhao Tuo know that the emperor sent people to participate in the treasure hunting?" ”
Lian Huahai smiled and said: "There is no airtight wall in the world, Kaifeng is so big, you can't see anyone when you look up, not to mention that there are eyeliners inside each other, how can you not know?" However, King Xiang also acquiesced in the participation of the official family, because the Qixing Five Elements Array was indeed too difficult to break through, and he needed more manpower. ”
"I see, both cooperation, competition, and win-win."
"That's right." Lian Huahai nodded and continued: "You have also seen this result, no one can successfully break through the Qixing Five Elements Array, even the kidnapper Zhang is missing in the formation, and he has suffered heavy losses. But...... It was not without gains, after more than a year of trial formation, King Xiang ordered people to draw the basic outline of the thirteen tombs and the section in front of the Qixing Five Elements Array......"
"He actually drew graphics!" Xun Mengqi said angrily, "If you have graphics, why don't you distribute them to us, but let me wait for them to break through blindly, risk your life, and sacrifice so many people in vain!" "Xun Mengqi doesn't feel sorry for other people, he feels sorry for the attachments that the Divine Sect has just received, Qiu Xi, Zhang Di, and Jia Banxian, because they don't have a graphic to guide the way, they died in the mouth of the beast.
"Don't you understand this?" Lian Huahai patiently explained, "Before reaching the Qixing Five Elements Array, King Xiang needs to eliminate some people who have no use value, if he can't even get through the previous difficulties, then he doesn't even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder when he arrives at the Qixing Five Elements Array, what does he want these people to do?" Waste of time? Besides, the major sects in the rivers and lakes have always been the henchmen of the imperial court, and no matter how many people die, it will only be good for them, not harmful. ”
"Humph!" Xun Mengqi snorted coldly and didn't speak again. He didn't know what the position of this uncle was in, serving the imperial court? Or is it for the sake of martial arts?
Lianhuahai didn't know Xun Mengqi's thoughts, he continued: "After King Xiang ordered people to draw a figure, he invited many masters who were proficient in the formation to study the method of cracking day and night, although there was no result, but there was still a little clue, for example, our location is the east, Jupiter, and the safe route in the front section is the northwest three, the southwest one, the west two, back to the southeast three, and then the southwest three, the northwest one, the west two, this is called Jupiter's corpse position. ”
