Songhai.

There is an elegant courtyard near the sea.

This annex is called "Haiyue Xiaozhu", which is the residence of the disciples of the Great Qin royal family.

At present, Fusu lives in this annex.

Near noon, Fusu stood on the observation deck of the annex and looked at the scenery of the sea and sky in the distance.

"Enlightened son, Master Li Si of Xiangguo has arrived!"

"Hmm~"

Fusu answered, and walked back to the hall.

Li Si stood with his hands arched and his expression solemn.

"Hehe, Master Li Si has always been punctual."

Fusu smiled, and then invited Li Si to sit down with him.

"The sea and sky small building scenery is excellent, and Qilu is famous. However, the most noteworthy dish here is a famous dish, I wonder if Master Li has heard of it? ”

Li Si replied: "The sea reflects Taiyue, and shark fin enjoys the bear's paw!" ”

"Well, even so, the materials used in Haitian Xiaozhu are extremely exquisite, and today I specially invite Lord Li to taste this delicacy......"

As a bell rang, the kitchen began to serve food.

A servant girl took the main course and put it on the table, kneeling on the ground and laying it out one by one.

Unexpectedly, a roar suddenly came, and a thick smoke was seen burning from the west courtyard.

Fusu frowned tightly and shouted at the guards standing aside, "Go and see what's going on." ”

Unexpectedly, without waiting for the guard's response, a guy who was serving food flashed to the guard's side with a thunderous momentum, and the sword flashed...... A knife seals the throat.

"Protect Childe!"

The guards in the hall moved instantly, and they all drew their swords and rushed towards the guys.

But what they didn't expect was that the three guys who came to serve the food were all killers, and they were not weak, and the guards in the hall were not their opponents at all.

"Ahh

The maidservant who was kneeling at the table seemed to be frightened by this bloody scene, let out an exclamation of exclamation, and leaned to Fusu's side.

Fusu was paying attention to the battle situation in the hall, and didn't notice the small movements of this maid.

Suddenly, the handmaiden's frightened eyes flashed a cold light, her nails stretched like ghosts, and her body jumped up violently, and the sharp nails swept through a cold light and grabbed the top of Fusu's head.

The nails obviously contain highly toxic poison, and if they are caught this time, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Seeing that the handmaiden's offensive was about to succeed......

Unexpectedly, at this time, a figure flashed like light smoke, and the cold light passed, and the maid's hands were instantly cut off from the wrists.

At this time, several figures appeared in the hall, and they split up and began to surround and kill the three killers who pretended to be buddies.

These people are none other than the shadow guards who are attached to Ruying.

Fusu seemed to have known that the Shadow Secret Guard would appear, so he didn't panic from beginning to end, and sat in place all the time without moving.

"It's good that the shadow guard came in time......"

Li Si wiped a handful of cold sweat and said with a happy face.

But the next moment, his figure suddenly exploded......

At some point, a short sword appeared in his hand, and a sword stabbed at Fusu's throat.

This is the real lore.

The three guys, including the maidservant, were actually foreshadowing, in order to distract the guards and the shadow guards.

Because no one would have expected that Li Si was the real killer, and naturally he would not guard against him.

At this time, Fusu was really scared, and subconsciously shouted "help", and at the same time his body subconsciously leaned back.

"Whoosh!"

At that moment, a short arrow swept in.

Li Si was caught off guard, and the person jumped up in the air and couldn't dodge at all, and the arrow directly sank into his body.

It is a special miniature crossbow that has a short range, but it is very lethal at short distances, and it is extremely fast to dodge.

Moreover, this arrow was obviously poisonous, and Li Si was hit by this arrow, and immediately felt weak, and his body fell to the ground heavily.

At the same time, the Shadow Guard also killed two of the opponent's killers, and the other two were captured alive.

However, the two killers who were captured then spat black blood and fell to the ground...... It seems that they were either poisoned in advance, or they committed suicide by taking poison.

"Enlightenment...... Enlightened son, outside...... There's another Master Li outside......"

Suddenly, there was a whistle outside.

"Lis", who was lying on the ground, couldn't help but sigh.

It is clear that his operation failed.

However, what he never expected was that at this time, another Fusu came out.

"Fusu", who was so frightened that he fell to the ground, quickly knelt on the ground......

"Lis" was dumbfounded.

Dare to love, this well-planned assassination operation turned out to be against a fake Fusu?

And they didn't even kill the fake ones...... It's simply a failure of failures.

"Poof~"

A mouthful of old blood gushed up, and "Li Si" couldn't help but faint in front of him.

After a while, Lees was brought in.

As soon as I entered the hall, I couldn't help but be surprised: "This ...... What's going on? ”

Especially when he saw a person who looked exactly like him lying on the ground, he understood why he was surrounded by a group of guards before......

Dare to love, he became an assassin of the assassin?

"Sangkoku-sama, you're a quarter of an hour late!"

Fu Su glanced at Li Si and said lightly.

"Late? This...... Shouldn't this be? His majesty has always been punctual, and he has seen the hour when he set out, and there has been no unusual situation along the way......"

"Yes, you think the hour is right, but you don't know that someone has manipulated the sundial and caused you to delay your departure by a quarter of an hour.

The reason why the other party took such a lot of trouble was to grab this quarter of an hour, pretending to be Lord Li to come to Haiyue Xiaozhu to assassinate the son. ”

"Is there such a thing?"

Lees was shocked.

"Isn't that obvious?"

Fusu subconsciously looked around.

"Yes...... But who is so bold as to take such a big risk and do such a crazy thing? ”

"The other party carefully planned this assassination operation, and it is obvious that he has full intelligence, and I hope that Lord Li will crack this case as soon as possible and find out the real culprit behind the scenes!"

"Yes, Your Majesty will do all your best to arrest the murderer!"

……

Soon, Zhao Gao received the news that the assassination had failed.

"What? You said that the Fusu they were going to assassinate at that time was also pretending? ”

Zhao Gao couldn't help but be taken aback.

"That's right!"

"There's no reason...... Zhao Gao frowned: "Even if Fusu is careful, he won't use a stand-in when he feasts on Li Si."

And, as far as this seat knows, Fusu has never had a stand-in, so where did this stand-in come from? ”

"This ...... The subordinates are not clear. ”

"The only possibility is that Fusu knew about our assassination plan in advance...... However, our planning is quite thorough, and there is no possibility of leaks......"

At this moment, Zhao Gao, who has always thought that he has nothing to miss, is really a little confused.

"Chief, how do we deal with it now? In case ......"

"What if, even if Fusu guesses that this seat did it? There was simply no way he could have caught the evidence.

Without evidence, he would not be able to move his seat! ”

This is also true, there is no evidence that Fusu really has no way to deal with Zhao Gao.

This is also the reason why Zhao Gao is so crazy, so unscrupulous and dares to take the risk of assassination.

"Chief, could it be...... People of the Yin and Yang family?

For example, the moon god, this woman has always been good at deduction, and even His Majesty often invites her into the palace to deduce the world's major events.

So, could it be that this woman got something, so she notified Fusu in advance? ”

"This ......" Zhao Gao pondered for a while: "It is estimated that the possibility is very small, the Yangyang family is not as divine as you think, and many times it is just a trick ...... mystery."

Speaking of this, Zhao Gao couldn't help but say with a conceited face: "If they can really deduce the future situation, then what they want to help will not be Fusu, but this seat!" ”

"Yes, yes, the leader has a point!"

The subordinate quickly slapped a sycophant.

"Okay, since Fusu asked Li Si to find out about the case, a few of you will go and secretly make some stumbling blocks and point all the suspicions to Confucianism......

This seat wants to let Li Si and Confucianism ...... Fight to the death! ”

"LinkedIn!"

The subordinate slapped his ass again before taking the order.

For a time, the undercurrent of Songhai City was turbulent, and the wind was loud.

But that's just the beginning.

Within two days, another piece of news came out, which shocked the world: Shennong's order reappeared in the rivers and lakes!

The Shennong Order is a reward token that appears in the rivers and lakes once every ten years.

"The earth is full of things, Shennong is immortal, and the prince will be a prince, and he would rather have a kind."

This is the slogan of the farmhouse.

The peasant family is the most special faction among the hundreds of sons.

Because it does not have a strong sense of existence on weekdays, it does not seem to have any representative figures, unlike Confucianism such as Confucius, Mencius, Taoism and Laozi, etc.

The farmer regards Shennong as the ancestor.

Its disciples are all over the world, and it is the largest number of the hundred sons, and it can be said to be a nine-stream farmer and businessman, with a mixture of dragons and snakes.

For a long time, the Shennong Order was issued by the leader of the peasant family, "Xia Kui".

Under normal circumstances, it is issued once every ten years, and every time the Shennong Order is issued, it will inevitably cause a wave of turmoil in the rivers and lakes.

Because, the rewards offered by Shennong's order are all big shots!

For example, Bai Qi, a famous general of the Qin State, is known as the slaughter of millions of people, and is also known as the god of killing.

But it is such a legendary figure, and there are rumors on the rivers and lakes that it is precisely because of the reward of Shennong's order that Bai Qi will be secretly besieged and killed by the top masters of the farmer's family.

But the problem is that everyone in the rivers and lakes now knows that the leader of the farmer's family mysteriously disappeared a few years ago, and the branches have no leader, and they have been competing for the position of leader, but to no avail.

So how exactly was this Shennong order issued?

Which big man is offering a bounty this time?

For a while, the already chaotic rivers and lakes set off earth-shattering waves......

……

The secret stronghold of the Mo family.

Gu Ming, Zhang Liang, Master Ban, Gai Nie, Wei Zhuang and other major Heavenly Dao personnel gathered together to discuss important matters.

"Sir, the reappearance of the Shennong Order in the rivers and lakes this time is quite weird, could it be that there is some earth-shattering conspiracy?"

Zhang Liang, who is resourceful on weekdays, has become a little dazed in the face of a series of changes.

"That's right, every time Shennong Ling appears, the target must be the big guy, who are they targeting this time?"

"Alas, the farmhouse has always been mixed, although it is not a climate, but there are many people and many masters. If they make a fuss, I'm afraid the world will fall into a bloody storm again......"

Master Ban couldn't help but sigh.

This is not true, because there is almost no threshold for farmers, and any ordinary person can join.

This also led to the fact that the disciples of the peasant families were all over the world, and it was difficult to tell how many disciples they had.

In addition to the leader "Xia Kui", there are six branch halls under the farmhouse, namely: Kuikui Hall, Chiyou Hall, Lieshan Hall, Siyue Hall, Gonggong Hall, and Shennong Hall.

Shengqi, who used to be the hall master of Kui Hall.

But later, he was framed by Tian Mi, the wife of Wu Kuang, who also belonged to Kui Kuitang, and went into exile in the Seven Kingdoms...... In the end, he was forced by Zhao Gaowei to join the net.

Tian Mi is naturally enchanting and charming, with all kinds of charms.

However, this female city is very deep, good at the left and right, and has great ambitions.

In order to be on top, this woman can be said to be unscrupulous.

On the one hand, taking advantage of his innate advantages, he has an ulterior relationship with the three brothers of the Lieshan Tang Tian family, Tian Zhong, Tian Hu, and Tian Meng.

With the secret support of the three Tian brothers, this woman did not hesitate to murder her husband and framed Yu Shengqi......

In the end, he got his wish and sat on the position of the head of the Kui Hall.

But, her ambitions don't stop there.

Because a person's desire is unlimited, she sat on the position of the hall master, and she set her sights on the position of the "chivalrous leader" of the farmer......

For this reason, this woman even did not hesitate to secretly collude with Zhao Gao, wanting to use the power of the net to exclude dissidents.

It can be said that most of the current disputes among the farmers are because of this woman's open and secret provocation.

She is not too strong in terms of strength, but what this woman is best at is to maximize her strengths......

Including the head of the Gonggong Hall, he also had an affair with it.

In short, the strength is not enough, and the beauty will make up!

She has her own set of ...... when it comes to dealing with men

At this time, Wei Zhuang said: "I know a little bit about the grievances within the farmer's family, and I still have some friendship with the master of Shennong Hall, why don't I go and take a trip to find out what the situation is?" ”

"It's useless!"

Gu Ming waved his hand.

"Oh? Why is that? ”

"Because this chaos is Zhao Gao's conspiracy......"

"Zhao Gao?"

"Why is this eunuch again?"

As for why Gu Ming said that it was Zhao Gao's conspiracy, many people didn't want to ask the reason.

After all, most of Gu Ming's predictions had come true, which also made everyone even more convinced of him.

"Zhao Gao is far more ambitious than you imagined, and the power of the net is far greater than you think.

It is no exaggeration to say that the net has almost infiltrated the major forces, even the high-level.

For example, the farmer's ...... This Shennong order is actually a ...... secretly issued by Zhao Gao"

"What? Zhao Gao? He...... How could he have a Shennong order? ”

The crowd was shocked.

"It's very simple, because the mysterious disappearance of the farmer's hero has actually been controlled by Zhao Gao......

The infighting in the farmhouse was also planned by Zhao Gao.

To put it simply, Zhao Gao's purpose was to trigger infighting among the peasant families, completely divide and disintegrate.

Because the existence of the farmhouse is a great threat to him.

I believe you may have heard that the peasant family was the most important force of Changping Jun, the former monarch of Chu State, and it was also a big backer he left for Fusu.

However, Zhao Gao absolutely did not want Fusu to ascend to the throne, so how could he allow the existence of the peasant family?

Even if he allowed it, he would fundamentally change the position of the peasants and make them part of the net. ”

"Sizzle......"

There was a gasp in the room.

"It's just horrible! If Zhao Gao really succeeds, how can the rivers and lakes be peaceful? ”

"Yes, there are many masters in the farmer's family, if they are all under the command of Zhao Gao...... Then I'm afraid that no one can really regret the net. ”

Gu Ming said coldly: "I wanted this guy to jump for a while, but this guy made one trick after another, it seems that ...... Ben Gongzi has to take action himself! ”

"Great!"

"The leader is out of the horse, and the custody is foolproof!"

The thief said with a hippie smile.

"Report!"

Suddenly, the voice of a peripheral disciple came from outside.

Master Ban got up and walked out, asking, "What's the matter?" ”

"Two women asking to meet!"

"Woman? Who? ”

"They didn't say their identity, but they said that Mr. Gu knew."

Saying this, Master Ban suddenly became stunned, then turned around and entered the room and whispered to Gu Ming: "Maybe it's someone from the Yin Yin family......

"Okay, you discuss first, and I'll come when I go."

After speaking, Gu Ming's figure disappeared in an instant.

As expected, the big secretary really came with the young secretary......

However, it seemed that Shao Siming seemed to be a little reluctant, and when Gu Ming appeared, her eyes were full of hostility.

But......

It didn't take long for her demeanor to become submissive.

In terms of brainwashing, Gu Ming is confident that there is probably no one in the world who is stronger than him.

"Remember, you two must not show your feet when you go back......

At present, your most important tasks are two: first, to secretly protect Gao Yue, that is, Ji Ru Qianlong, and second, to find a way to draw the structural layout of the mirage, especially the mechanism.

In case of...... I mean, if it's really exposed, don't panic, just flee here, and someone will pick you up. ”

"Subordinates obey!"

The two daughters responded in unison.

"By the way, there is one more thing, by the way, pay attention to the whereabouts of the star soul, and if you find him disembarking and leaving, you must pass on the news in time."

"Subordinates obey!"

"Go ahead!"

"Yes!"

The second daughter answered, and then quickly disappeared into the vast night.

The reason why Gu Ming asked them to pay attention to the whereabouts of the Star Soul was because they were ready to get rid of this sinister guy.

Now that the situation is getting more and more chaotic, it's time to take care of it.

Including the Eastern Emperor, they will be killed as soon as the time comes.

Gu Ming has been planning for so long, it's time to start slowly closing the net......

Of course, the premise of everything is not to affect the start of the mirage, that is to say, to grasp the proportions, and not let the First Emperor change his mind because he is frightened.

……

The outskirts of Songhai.

Outside a lush bamboo forest, a group of Qin soldiers were scattered around and guarded here.

The person who led the team was actually Zhang Han, the leader of the Shadow Secret Guard.

can let Zhang Han personally protect here, it can be seen that this person's identity is not low.

Suddenly, a cold wind swept by......

The other soldiers didn't feel anything, but Zhang Han frowned and commanded in a low voice: "Cheer up, I'll go in and have a look." ”

"Yes!"

There are several bamboo huts behind the bamboo bushes, and there is a small pond nearby.

A young woman is soaking in water with her eyes slightly closed......

This woman is Xiaomeng, the head of the Taoist Heavenly Sect.

This is her temporary residence in Songhai this time.

With her skills, she didn't need to send troops to protect her, but Fusu still sent troops to garrison here in order to show respect and courtesy.

"Who?"

Suddenly, the maid who was guarding the pond shouted.

A figure flashed out of nowhere, and walked slowly towards the edge of the pond.

"Is that you?"

Xiaomeng opened her eyes and looked at Gu Ming with some shock and surprise.

"That's right, it's me!"

Gu Ming stopped.

"What are you doing here?"

Xiaomeng didn't seem to have a shy expression, so she actually stood up in front of Gu Ming and walked onto the shore......

The maid didn't think much about it, and quickly took off her clothes and put them on for Xiaomeng.

Gu Ming didn't come to peek on purpose, but just happened to have a meeting. Besides, he didn't have much interest in this woman.

And in Xiaomeng's concept, she doesn't care about whether her body is looked at by others, because she feels that whether it is a man or a woman, the body is just a skin, and there is no fuss.

"Here ......"

Gu Minggang wanted to explain his intentions.

Unexpectedly, at this time, Zhang Han had already rushed in, and when he saw someone here, he immediately raised his sword: "Bold, dare to trespass on the place of Master Xiaomeng's cultivation!" ”

This sword, without a trace of hand, is completely a sword killing.

Since this guy can serve as the commander of the Shadow Secret Guard, needless to say, although he is not as good as Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie, he will not be too far behind.

Xiaomeng frowned, and wanted to stop drinking...... But then it was silent.

Because she wanted to take the opportunity to find out the details of Gu Ming.

"Whew~"

In the air, the shadow of the sword passed by like a meteor.

Zhang Han's sword style didn't look gorgeous, there was no amazing movement, but it was simple and direct.

Because what he pursues is to kill with one hit, after all, he is shouldering the heavy responsibility of protecting the emperor, and if he can't kill with one hit, it is easy to give the opponent a chance to fight back.

Therefore, his sword trick is mainly three words: fast, accurate, and ruthless!

However, what Zhang Han never expected was that this killer sword actually missed, and he didn't even touch the other party's edge.

What made him even more shocked was that before he had time to put away his sword, he suddenly felt that the hand holding the sword suddenly lost consciousness, and the long sword in his hand fell to the ground uncontrollably.

The next moment, he felt a blackness in front of him, and his whole body was light......

In such a blink of an eye, he not only lost his hand, lost his sword, but was even choked by his opponent's neck and unable to move.

"Click......"

There was a faint cracking sound in the field.

Zhang Han struggled in pain, wanting to say something in his mouth, but his mouth kept foaming blood......

This is the worst loss he has ever lost since his debut.

I didn't even have the slightest strength to fight back.

The nirvana didn't work at all, but was choked by the opponent like a chicken......

At the same moment, Xiaomeng also looked stupid.

Speaking from her heart, she was sure to dodge the sword just now, or crack it head-on, but it was absolutely impossible to defeat Zhang Han with one move, let alone counter-control with one move so easily.

Who the hell is this person? This strength is simply terrifying!

However, seeing that Zhang Han kept vomiting blood in his mouth, and his breath was getting weaker and weaker, Xiao Meng couldn't help frowning and shouted, "Let him go!" ”

"Hehe, he wants to kill me, why should I let him go?"

"His name is Zhang Han, and he is the commander of the Shadow Secret Guard, and he is responsible for protecting me here. You trespassed here, and he thought you were an assassin and wanted to kill you. ”

"Strange, isn't Master Xiaomeng's cultivation of the Tao of Forgetfulness? Haven't you always criticized others for not being able to see through life and death?

Since you are forgetful, why do you care about the lives of others now? ”

"I ......"

Xiaomeng was speechless for a while.

She didn't care about Zhang Han, but Zhang Han was ordered to be on duty here, if she died here, first, she would not be able to explain to Fusu, and secondly, she would not be able to get over face.

"Therefore, you should not pretend to be a Taoist master all day long, as if you are the only one in the world who is a Taoist master.

To put it bluntly, you're only eighteen years old, and you've been in retreat for 10 years, so how much do you know about the world?

How much do you know about human affairs, human feelings, and human suffering?

Don't think that after reading a few Taoist scriptures, you think you have seen through the red dust...... If you really see through the red dust, how can you be invited by Zhao Gao, a demon who is neither male nor female, to go out of the mountain?

It's not because it's hard to disobey one's own heart, fame, vanity, and conceit.

If you really see through the red dust, you won't be thinking about how to defeat the masters of the Human Sect all day long, only your Heavenly Sect is authentic.

At the end of the day, you don't look like you eat fireworks on the surface, but you actually ...... There is no essential difference from the reckless man in the rivers and lakes, and he is still a brave and ruthless person.

Your self-confidence comes from nothing more than your cultivation talent.

It is true that your strength is relatively good, but your state of mind, your understanding of the Tao......

Forgive Ben Gongzi for saying something that is not acceptable, you are not worthy of being called a Taoist disciple at all, because you have not comprehended the essence of Taoism at all.

You don't even know what the real Tao is......"

"You ......"

As soon as these words entered his ears, Xiaomeng was hit the hardest blow in his life, and a wisp of blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth......

Shame!

She is the head of the Taoist Tianzong, and she is said to be so unbearable......
