Chapter 121: Disguise
"I think you'll understand."
Ke Dong covered his stomach and begged for mercy:
"No, don't hit me, I say, I'll say anything."
With a smug smile on his face, Qiao Yazhi asked:
"Then tell me about how to leave."
Ke Dong held on to a tree next to him, stood up slowly, and said:
"Actually, this place was not formed for no reason, after all, there is the Father God who governs all the time, and the main reason why this has existed for so long is that there is a treasure here."
As soon as he heard the baby, Qiao Yazhi came to his strength and asked eagerly:
"Say, say, what kind of baby?"
Ke Dong glanced at Qiao Yazhi and continued:
"I don't know what the treasure is, I only know that it is in the hands of the village chief who first came here, and if you want to go out, you must use that treasure, but the village chief is afraid that someone will study that treasure thoroughly, causing those of them who have been here for thousands of years to die, so he hides the treasure and no one will let anyone know."
"Very well, you can go back with me."
Ke Dong's face was frightened,
"No, I'm not going, now that someone in the town has started walking, if you hit me again, I'll call someone."
After speaking, Ke Dong looked in the direction behind him, expecting someone to come, and it happened that there was an obvious figure shaking behind the grass.
Qiao Yazhi obviously saw this too, he thought about it for a while, anyway, he also got the information he deserved, and he didn't dare to say more if he let him go back, if he fought here, it was likely to attract other residents and nobles, and it would be worth the loss.
When he goes back, he will tell the news that he is likely to become the leader of the nobles, and then he will take that treasure for himself, and he can not only go back, but also get the gratitude of most of the nobles of the Star Empire, the most important thing is that he got that treasure, a treasure that can stabilize the time capsule, how powerful is this, think about Qiao Yazhi and feel that his future is bright, and the resident in front of him is irrelevant in his opinion, he must stabilize it now, and he can't wave it.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yazhi glanced at Ke Dong.
"You're lucky today, get out."
Ke Dong was waiting for this sentence, and he quickly fled from here holding his stomach.
As you must have guessed, it wasn't a figure at all, just a scarecrow that Ke Dong had made up in advance.
And now Qiao Yazhi is also like an arrow, and when he thinks of the prospects he has planned, he feels impatient.
Ke Dong didn't run far, he stopped when he saw that Qiao Yazhi was no longer looking at him, and then he returned his face to the prototype, he was always tired of twisting a face, Ke Dong looked in the direction of Qiao Yazhi and smiled, and said to himself:
"I've got everything ready for you, don't let me down......"
Ke Dong knows that they will definitely take the bait, what he says is all the truth, how can a lie without a lie be broken? In addition to the thoughts of this group of nobles, Ke Dong said that the plan is going well.
After separating from Ke Dong, Qiao Yazhi returned to the side of the noble convoy, waiting for the return of the others with a secret smile.
Yes, that's it, so I can be a leader. He thought to himself.
When he saw that the nobles had almost returned, and no one had come out to share the news, he coughed violently twice and asked:
"Guys, did anyone bring back any usable news?"
Nobles, you look at me, I look at you, and no one said a word, because they didn't find anything at all.
And those who noticed that his expression was wrong when Joyage came back watched quietly.
Qiao Yazhi smiled smugly and continued:
"I'm lucky, and I'm lucky enough to find out something."
As soon as the nobles heard this, they all gathered around, after all, a little more news means a little more hope to go out, after seeing the anxiety on everyone's faces, Qiao Yazhi nodded with satisfaction, and then he said that he met Ke Dong and got the news from Ke Dong, and the nobles immediately shouted.
"I knew that this group of untouchables must have deliberately not let us leave."
"They can't leave on their own, they don't want us to leave yet, what a damn bunch."
……
Qiao Yazhi seemed to be satisfied with the effect he had made, and he said loudly:
"Let's be quiet first, now we have to go and grab the treasure, and then study it slowly, so that we can find a way out."
Everyone felt that this solution was the only way they could come up now, and they all agreed.
"But,"
When everyone was about to discuss how to take the treasure, Qiao Yazhi changed his words.
"We alone will not be able to reclaim the treasure, have you forgotten how we were driven out in humiliation yesterday?"
Only then did the nobles realize that their magic here was useless, because they couldn't kill people at all, they could only be used for lighting, and the use of martial arts was only a little, and the opponent was numerous, and the frontal attack would definitely be defeated.
"So, we're going to find some insiders, some people who have a grudge against Mayor Gael." Joachi finally said.
The nobles discussed for a long time how to find Neiying, after all, if all the plans were exposed, they would be over.
There were still many smart people among the nobles, and although they scoffed at the idea that Qiao Yazhi wanted to lead everyone with just one piece of news, they still chose to give in under the temptation to leave, and with their advice, they roughly came up with two solutions.
The first is to make the actions of Mayor Gale public throughout the town, which will provoke the anger of the majority of the people and the rebellion of a small number of people, but the disadvantage is that Mayor Gale will find out and make him take precautions.
The second is to let some nobles go over and turn themselves in, secretly looking for those who are dissatisfied with the matter and have no interest in eternal life, which is very hidden, but there are certainly very few people found.
After repeated negotiations among the nobles, the second plan was finally decided, and Qiao Yazhi personally led the team to select a small group of the most astute nobles and walk towards the town.
And Ke Dong is now back in Hudal's house, and the rest of the things don't need him to go out in person, he just needs to wait for an opportunity to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
When Ke Dong returned to the room, Song Xin hadn't gotten up yet, and it seemed that the bedtime story from last night had come into play. Ke Dong didn't mean to wake her up, just quietly looked out the window, waiting for the nobles' actions.
After a while, Princess Song Xin woke up from her sleep, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Ke Dong sitting by the window, looking at everything in the town gently, and the warm morning sun gently sprinkled on Ke Dong's body, adding a touch of brilliance to his gentle smile. Song Xin felt his heart pounding for no reason, and the current Ke Dong gave people a perfect feeling.
"Ah, you're up, No."
Ke Dong saw Song Xin get up, smiled and asked, and then pointed to the black tea he had brewed on the table, and motioned for Song Xin to drink some.
Song Xin suddenly had the feeling of a newlywed wife at this time, and when she woke up, she saw her husband gently preparing breakfast for herself, and Song Xin couldn't help but blush when she thought of all this. She shook her head, trying to expel the distracting thoughts in her mind, but it didn't seem to work very well, Song Xin didn't care anymore, she picked up the black tea and asked:
"Ke Dong, what are you looking at?"
Ke Dong smiled mysteriously and said:
"It's nothing, it's just that our great leader Qiao Yazhi is going to lead a part of the nobles to come and surrender, they are now at the entrance of the town, come and take a look."
After speaking, Ke Dong consciously gave Song Xin a place by the window and motioned for Song Xin to come over.
Song Xin came to Ke Dong very obediently, looked far away, and saw Qiao Yazhi and his party.
"They're here to surrender?"
Song Xin asked with a puzzled expression.
"Of course."
"But why are their expressions filled with joy?"
Although it was a little far away, Song Xin still saw the expression on Qiao Yazhi's face.
"Ah, that's probably because I'm happy for my comfortable life in the future."
Ke Dong said casually.
This sentence sounded completely false to Song Xin, and it was simply perfunctory to her. Song Xin, who had already lost his majesty in front of Ke Dong and became a little unscrupulous, said coquettishly:
"Just tell me."
Ke Dong tilted his head and looked at Song Xin, meaning that he felt a little uncomfortable with Song Xin who had completely let go, but he couldn't stand Song Xin's constant begging, so he said what he had done in the morning.
"In other words, this group of nobles is deceiving their surrender."
"That's right, it seems that they are going to collect information, looking for a few internal responses, and finally the inner and outer sides will take down the mayor of Gael in one fell swoop."
Song Xin, who knew that these were all within Ke Dong's plan, was not in a hurry, she asked casually:
"So what should we do now?"
"It's simple, wait."
Song Xin continued to ask:
"And when are we going to wait?"
"Wait until Mayor Gale shows his flaws."
We're turning our heads to look at Joyage, and so far, everything has been within Joy's expectations.
Gather nobles, tell the news, discuss countermeasures, and become a leader. If this continues, it won't be long before he can leave this ghost place, taking with him an incomparably precious treasure and the love of everyone. After he returns, he can rely on these connections with his family to establish his own power in Yuehua, and finally dominate one side, maybe he can live forever.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but tremble at the front of the line, and then realized that he had lost his temper, and the most important thing now was to gain the sympathy of the people in the town, so that he could start his next plan.
Is eternal life really tempting? Some will say yes, some will have ambiguous answers, and only a very small number of people will be disgusted with eternal life.
But is eternal life really that good, when a person is disgusted with his existence for a limited time, he will go after a peaceful death.
At that time, eternal life is a curse, a curse that can never be escaped, it will accompany you forever, you can not welcome the end of life, you can only watch the things you love be corrupted by time one by one in the never-ending flow of time, and those who live forever will one day be disgusted with all this, everything, including themselves, and everything they have, but they can never escape, they can only live alone and painfully.
Joykey is looking for those who are terrified of eternal life and longing to return to the Father's arms, and the longer they live, the more such people there are.
By the time they arrived in town, the incident had already been reported to Mayor Gael, who had also arrived at the entrance of the town.
When Qiao Yazhi saw the mayor coming, he bowed slightly, showing politeness.
"Mayor Gael, we were very rude yesterday, and after a night of thinking, some of us have figured it out, and have decided to abandon our noble status and status, and to be equal to the inhabitants of the town, and I would like to ask you to forgive us and let us live in the town. I apologize once again to you on behalf of the nobility for what we did yesterday. ”
I have to say that what Qiao Yazhi said in the scene was very humble, and his expression was flawless, these things have been trained since childhood, and it is difficult to be seen through.
Mayor Gale looked at the respectful Qiao Yazhi in front of him, and had some doubts in his heart, but he was quickly relieved, after all, no one can be in despair for a long time, they probably came to find some comfort, but even if he found a good reason for them in his heart, he did not let his guard down.
"Mr. Qiao Yazhi, please don't say that, your mood was not very stable yesterday, and we can understand those actions, since you want to join us, we have no reason to refuse."
Qiao Yazhi couldn't help but be very happy when he saw that his plan had succeeded, and he continued:
"Then ask the mayor to arrange some accommodation for us, after all, we have been sleeping in the carriage for the past two days, and we also want to have a good rest."
"Okay, I'll let a few friends take you to their home, and it's not too late to move out after your house is built, we have no shortage of places and food here, please enjoy yourself, you're welcome, everyone will be a family in the future."
This arrangement played into Qiao Yaji's hands, and the purpose of bringing many people here was to get the mayor to arrange them in each household, so that it would be convenient for them to collect information and plot against the residents.
"Then we'll follow the mayor's arrangement."
Subsequently, the mayor of Gale picked a few clever ones from among the inhabitants and asked them to entertain the nobles.
All this was seen by Ke Dong, who was observing from upstairs, and although he couldn't hear what they were saying, he could guess almost the same based on their movements alone.
Ke Dong breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that Qiao Yazhi is not bad, and he can do what Ke Dong expected.
Ke Dong didn't care about the rest of the matter, but led Song Xin to the outskirts of the town again to observe those fragments of time.
If people are water droplets in a long river of time, then these fragments of time are the fog when the river evaporates, and although the small puddles and the water of the river do not mix, some of the fog still intersects.
The reason why Ke Dong came here is to deepen his understanding of time, it is not difficult to obtain treasures, but how he can transform himself into a frog in the flow of time. This requires not only a deep understanding of time, but also a good deal of luck to make it happen.
Although Ke Dong has always been arrogant and arrogant, he is actually careful about everything, and he knows that many times when he takes a wrong step, all his efforts are wasted.
A lot of times that's how it is, you just take one wrong step and all the previous efforts are in vain.
Time flies, well, you can't say that, after all, Ke Dong and these people should be regarded as static in this time bag.
It has been about a month and a half since Qiao Yazhi came to the town, and with the nobles' usual means of winning over people's hearts and eloquent words, some people have already rebelled against the town and moved to the camp of the nobles.
Seeing that he was almost ready, he sent a resident to deliver a letter to the nobles outside the town to get ready.
The time is set for tomorrow.
Ke Dong didn't do anything during this time, just took Song Xin to see the time fragments every day, and told Song Xin a bedtime story or something at night, but he has been paying attention to the movements of the nobles, and tomorrow should be the day for his own actions.
