Chapter 074: The Missing Sword (Part I)

The empire is unified.

The empire has reached its peak, but it has also entered a turbulent moment.

It's just that those who exist in the dark places of the empire like moths are just minor troubles in the eyes of Ying Zheng, as long as he exists in the empire for a day, then these things will never make big waves and make the great cause of the empire twists and turns.

And once you get the Immortal Pill......

On the throne, a trace of expectation popped up in the depths of Ying Zheng's eyes, which were mostly covered by bead curtains. But those remnants of the Six Kingdoms who caused trouble are not worth caring about in the eyes of Ying Zheng, but if it takes too long, it will still make people disgusted and irritable.

It's like a fly.

If you have too much time to buzz, it will test a person's temperament too much. Moreover, if the other party is allowed to make trouble like this, although Yingzheng has enough to suppress me, he doesn't want to make too much trouble, in that case, the loss will be the empire after all.

After thinking for a long time, Ying Zheng made a plan in his heart.

He decided to lure the snake out of the hole and lure out all the remnants of the six kingdoms and wipe them out.

Of course, such a 'little thing' Yingzheng will naturally not do it himself, he will leave it to other people to do it, such as Gongzi Fusu......

Xianyang.

One thought leads to changes in some aspects of the entire empire.

Equally.

Even if Yue Yuan was in retreat, many things that happened in the empire were still in Yue Yuan's ears. As the two protectors of the empire and the power of the Yin and Yang family itself, there are not many secrets in the entire empire that can be hidden in Yue Yuan's eyes.

However, this is not entirely absolute.

Because his biggest mind is on martial arts, even if he knows some things, he doesn't have the energy to pay attention to those things.

When Yue Yuan went into retreat, except for the necessary things to report, other major matters were basically the responsibility of the Moon God and the Star Soul. Right now, the two of them seemed to be drawn to something else.

It was a big secret that the spies of the Yin and Yang family hidden in other forces brought back at the cost of their lives.

This secret is the Seven Nights of the Dragon.

Room.

The moon god and the star soul sat cross-legged across from each other.

They looked at each other indifferently for a long time. Only then did the eyes of the two of them fall on the bloodstained scroll that rested in front of them. Due to the passage of time, the blood stains on the scroll have already turned black and brown, and it looks like the entire scroll is dirty.

Only then did the Star Soul speak: "Lord Moon God has already read the above record, what do you think of this?" ”

Facing the words of the star soul, the moon god pursed his lips and smiled, and his eyes shone brightly under the light veil. Staring intently at the left side of the Star Soul, in that direction was the place where Lord Donghuang was retreating, he did murmur: "Our Yin and Yang Clan, as well as the Taoist Family, can't understand this secret, Lord Star Soul, how do you think that just a few scholars can peek into this secret that has been kept by us for so many years?" Speaking of this, a smile flowed through the moon god's face, and he said, "Lord Star Soul is too worried. ”

"Oh?"

Star Soul's eyebrows couldn't help but raise, tilting his head and staring up and down at the moon god, as if he didn't know this woman. Pointing to it, he said: "Maybe these readers can get a glimpse of the secrets that we can't see." ”

"So what?"

The Moon God smiled disdainfully, "Since neither you nor I have the time or energy nor the ability to decipher its secrets, and the attention of the Eastern Emperor is even more in other aspects. Then we can unlock this secret through the hands of others. ”

Hearing this, Star Soul's brows couldn't help but raise again.

It's funny to say, almost all the high-level members of the Yin and Yang family know the secret of Canglong Qisu, but in fact, there are few people who really pursue to unlock this secret. Because this thing has consumed too much time for the Taoists and the Yin and Yang families, it has not made significant progress at all.

In the Yin and Yang family. On the contrary, Dongjun has a great interest in this secret.

It's a pity......

And the Eastern Emperor has an inexplicable resistance to this secret. Maybe outsiders can't see it, but the moon god, as a woman, can feel the resistance hidden in the heart of the Eastern Emperor.

It is precisely because of the intentional or unintentional dominance of the Eastern Emperor. Over the years, the so-called Canglong Qisu has not been taken to heart by the Yin and Yang family, and they are more promoting the unification of the Seven Kingdoms.

Acting for the will of the Eastern Emperor alone.

And for now......

The Yin and Yang family is in charge of the Moon God and the Star Soul.

“……”

Hearing this, the star soul closed its eyes and muttered for a while, but did not open its mouth to stop the moon god. It's just that in the heart of the star soul, I still care about one thing, who is the person behind this Confucian man who started the incident for no reason.

Unlike others, as a high-level star soul of the Yin and Yang family, he knew very well that the Canglong Seven Residences should not refer to the empire.

Not against the idea of the moon god. It's because there aren't many major things in the Yin-Yang family right now. In addition to focusing part of his energy on the construction of the mirage, the rest was the task that the Eastern Emperor had given to the moon god.

As for the retreat of the Eastern Emperor......

This is something that no one else can do.

The rest may be the two of them, as the protectors of the empire, who were given the task by the emperor Yingzheng. Thinking about it, compared to the past, the current Yin and Yang family is not so busy.

When they are relaxed, they naturally want to find something to do.

For example, the moon god wants to exercise the rights granted by the Eastern Emperor......

He stared at the moon god silently for a long time. The Star Soul got up and left, and before stepping out of the door, the Star Soul turned around sharply and said, "I hope there won't be any accidents." With that, the man had already walked out.

Seeing the departure of the star soul, the moon god lowered his eyebrows and said nothing.

Long.

Rise.

Vermilion lips slightly opened.

The luna's voice echoed through the room: "It's time to begin." ”

……

Songhai, Confucianism.

Little Sage Village.

As the famous Confucian Sanjie Fu Nian, Yan Lu and Zhang Liang are getting together today, not about learning, nor about how to oppose Qin, but looking at a sword. This sword attracted the attention of the three masters.

This sword is the sword given to Yan Lu by their uncle Xunzi.

This sword is quite special.

There is no sword body, at least now in the eyes of Sanjie, the sword body cannot be seen. What appeared in front of them was a jade hilt of a jade sword. The hilt of the sword was placed horizontally on the tray and rested in front of Yan Lu.

And at this time, the sunlight shining through the window finally fell on the tray.

Suddenly-

In the eyes of the three of them, the sword with only the hilt had a blade.

"!"

With an exclamation, Zhang Liang opened his mouth and praised: "You can't see it, and you don't know what it touches." Boundless, passing through things and not realizing things. This should be one of Kong's three swords, the light-containing sword. ”

"Not bad."

Fu Nian agreed: "This is the Light Sword, one of Kong Zhou's swords, the rumored invisible sword. Speaking of this, Fu Nian paused for a moment, and then continued: "This kind of sword-forging method is really unheard of and unseen. ”

In the sunlight, the invisible blade has appeared.

Fu Nian stretched out his index finger and gently swiped the invisible blade, only to feel that his finger was cold, and a small opening appeared on it. It's a scratch and you don't feel anything.

"Good sword."

As the soon-to-be-become master of this sword, Yan Lu didn't say much, he just stroked the jade hilt very gently, feeling the warmth, and Yan Lu knew that this was a gentleman's sword.

The gentleman is as warm as jade, implicit but not revealing.

That's it.

Zhang Liang, who was on the side, watched Yan Lu take the light sword in his hand and dance, but a strange thought popped up in his heart for no reason.

Where did this lightsaber come from?

You must know that since the Spring and Autumn Period, Kong Sanjian has disappeared. Now, it appeared in the hands of Uncle Xunzi. It was given to Yan Lu by Xunzi. Glancing back at Fu Nian, the two of them touched their eyes slightly. It was immediately withdrawn.

Obviously, Fu Nian also thought of this.

As the three masters of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, they all know very well that Confucianism actually does not have this sword in their hands.

The appearance of one of the three swords of Kong with a light sword was too strange.

Another point is that the way this three-day sword is forged is very different from the common way of forging swords. For example, Tai'a in Fu Nian's hand, and Ling Xuan in Zhang Liang's own hand. Even if they are all famous swords on the sword spectrum, Kong Zhou's sword is incompatible with other swords in the description.

Or so to speak. It's a sword of two eras entirely.

Who's collecting?

Who's going to take it out again?

Everything has to be explained by Uncle Xunzi.

In deep thought, Zhang Liang and Fu Nian were also watching Yan Lu dance with a sword dance in the sun with a light in his hand with an appreciative gaze.

At the same time.

Little Sage Village, backyard.

Xunzi sat cross-legged, his posture and temperament became extremely serious and serious, staring at the person in front of him.

In front of him. It's a bald old man.

"With the light of one of the three swords of Kong, Your Excellency is very generous." Xunzi's face was serious, but there was no trace of joy in his harsh tone: "It's just that the practices of the Guigu faction have always been unsettling. ”

"And Your Excellency's approach has already made Confucianism uneasy."

Hear the words.

The bald old man smiled dumbly, shook his head and said, "There is no other intention, it's just that the old man thinks that the light sword is a gentleman's sword, and it should be used by a gentleman." And Confucian Yan Lu is the best candidate. ”

“……”

Xunzi was speechless, so he wouldn't believe that it was this reason.

You must know that among the hundred schools, the most dangerous one is the Zonghengjia in a way. Unlike others, Xunzi, who can be called a saint in Confucianism, has seen a trace of what has been hidden in the Guigu line of the Zongheng family in these hundreds of years.

On the surface, it seems to be a duel between vertical and horizontal disciples, but from another aspect, it can also be found that they are actually balancing the situation.

They are maintaining a situation where princes coexist.

In the eyes of the hundred schools, this Guigu lineage is a person who often has talents, but it is also a maker of conspiracy and trouble. If Confucianism is good at argumentation, then people who are in the same vein will only be more powerful.

And the difference between this generation and the past is that they seem to care more about speaking with a sword.

"There's no need to be so secretive between you and me." Seeing that the bald old man didn't say anything about his true intentions, Xunzi didn't seem to have much patience, so he asked directly.

“……”

Seeing this, the bald old man couldn't help sighing, thinking back to his eldest son's situation that made him helpless, and then facing Xunzi's gaze that was almost comparable to a sharp blade, he said his meaning: "The old man is here for a sword." ”

"A sword?"

"A missing sword." (To be continued......)
