Chapter 017: The world is in turmoil

The sunset before dusk, through the eaves and through the windows, scattered all over the ground like flowing gold.

Inside, the light is bright. In the middle, there is a three-legged and six-eared round tripod.

This round tripod is blue-gray, one person high, engraved with patterns, and there are many wear and erosion places on the surface, but it is harmless.

At this moment, there is a breath slowly steaming up above the round tripod, like a cloud of mist, hazy and ethereal. A vague medicinal fragrance escapes from it, and the smell of it gives people a sense of relaxation and pleasure.

On the side, Zhou Zheng sat on a futon, urging the fire under the round tripod from time to time, calmly.

Outside the closed door, a rough sound came in.

"Master, the head of the seven major factions, has all gone down the mountain early this morning."

In this regard, Zhou Zheng maintained his current state, but just hummed.

Immediately, he said, "I have passed on your things, have you ever understood." ”

There was silence outside the door for a moment, and then a weak word came: "Black Eagle is stupid, only a small part of it understands." ”

"Comprehend it well, first contact Wei Zhongxian according to what I explained. Two days later, you also went down the mountain and returned to Wei Zhongxian. Zhou Zheng said.

The person outside the door answered, "Yes." ”

"Stand down."

After Zhou Zheng finished speaking, the people outside the door bowed and turned to leave.

The sun sets and the moon rises, the night occupies the sky, and the light in the house is replaced by candles, which looks dim.

Zhou Zheng had already stood up from the futon, looking at the round tripod in front of him with a slightly condensed face, the mist was steaming like a cloud of smoke, and a rich medicinal fragrance filled the entire room, as if he had come to a medicine garden.

"It's time."

Zhou Zheng estimated in his heart, and after a few breaths, he raised his hand and slapped it with a palm, which landed directly on the lid of the round tripod, and flew out, half of which was submerged on the opposite wall.

Looking down, the heat in the ding diverged, and in the center of it lay the size of twelve copper coins, all vermilion, like a round elixir coagulated by blood.

"The Blood Ring Pill has finally been refined, although there are only twelve of them, but it can also raise my cultivation from the tenth layer of qi refining to the eleventh layer." Looking at these blood ring pills, Zhou Zheng sighed with emotion.

A month or two has passed since he set foot in this mortal world, and his cultivation has not improved by a single star.

Right now, he was finally able to rely on the pill to push the cultivation of the Qi refining period to the next level. The mana in the body will also increase a lot accordingly.

A world with weak aura is really not suitable for immortal cultivators.

In order to gather these pill materials for refining and improving the cultivation of the Qi refining period, he took great pains to control the Dajiang Gang and plunder the Yashan Sect before he could gather the materials for refining a furnace of pills.

The path of cultivating immortals is to compete with heaven and earth, and to achieve oneself with the resources born of heaven and earth, which is destined to be a difficult and rugged road.

Next, after he took these pills, he had to look for alchemy materials again, so he could only plunder them again.

Fortunately, his plan was well underway, and it was enough to ensure that he would be able to plunder the corresponding alchemy materials again, and it was only a matter of time.

"Next, the entire rivers and lakes and even the world will begin to be chaotic. Among the eight major factions, only Shaolin Wudang still has some variables, and the other five factions are absolutely under control. It seems that I must deal with these two major factions first, and then I will see what kind of surprises Wunian and Tianji can bring to me when they return to their respective sects. ”

Zhou Zheng turned his eyes to look out the window, looking at the crescent moon in the sky, which was gradually obscured by the drifting clouds......

……

Time flies, fleeting.

It has been half a month since the Cliff Mountain Golden Basin Handwashing Conference passed.

These days, there has been an earthquake-like storm on the rivers and lakes.

The Jianghu forces who participated in the Golden Basin Washing Conference suffered heavy casualties in the ambush of the East Factory in the Yashan faction, and in the end, only the heads of the eight major sects escaped smoothly, but everyone was injured.

This news only slowly spread in the rivers and lakes a few days after these people returned to their own sects.

Those who learned about it didn't believe it at first, and regarded it as a joke and a rumor.

But slowly, this rumor spread more and more widely in the rivers and lakes, and people with good intentions also noticed that something was wrong, and then it was spread by several heads of the Eight Great Sects themselves, and it really fell into the lake like a boulder, causing terrifying waves.

How can it be!

The people who participated in the Golden Basin Handwashing Conference were all the forces of the rivers and lakes, and among them, the heads of the eight major sects went in person, how could they be ambushed by the imperial court Dongchang and almost wiped out the whole army!

Some well-intentioned people in the rivers and lakes felt that this matter was full of suspicions, and I was afraid that it was not so simple, so they thought of visiting the eight major sects and begging the heads of the various factions who had successfully returned from Cliff Mountain to stand up and talk about the details of the development of this matter.

After a day or two, the two major sects of the Divine Sword Sect and the Cloud Sword Sect stood up and spoke out and told some details of the matter.

It turned out that the Jianghu forces led by the Eight Great Sects suffered heavy casualties in an ambush in Cliff Mountain, all of which were done by the Yashan Faction. Zhang Yifeng, the head of the Yashan faction, took refuge in Dongchang early, and the reason why he held the Golden Basin Handwashing Conference was also a conspiracy to unite with Dongchang, the purpose of which was to severely damage the forces in the rivers and lakes.

As soon as these words came out, it immediately set off an uproar in the rivers and lakes, and the people in the rivers and lakes were all angry, and they felt hated and angry that the Yashan faction had been a lackey of the court and assassinated the fellow people in the rivers and lakes, and in a few days, the reputation of the Yashan faction in the rivers and lakes plummeted, and they were secretly cursed by many people in the rivers and lakes, and even the beggars on the street also showed a look of disdain when they heard the words of the Yashan faction.

In addition, there is also a group of people in the rivers and lakes who temporarily allied and rushed to the Yashan faction to find Zhang Yifeng for revenge. Because the vast majority of them are from those second-rate forces that were destroyed in the Yashan faction.

However, when they traveled a long way to Cliff Mountain, they found that the Yashan Sect had already gone to the empty building, and even a living person could not be seen, only countless rotting and stinky corpses remained, as well as dried and blackened blood, so angry that many people trembled all over, and greeted Zhang Yifeng's ancestors for the eighteenth generation.

Even, in order to vent the anger and hatred in their hearts, they directly set fire to the Yashan faction, and the raging fire burned on the cliff mountain for three days and three nights before it was gradually extinguished.

The Yashan faction, one of the eight major sects, can be said to have been completely removed from the rivers and lakes since then.

Many forces in the rivers and lakes even swore that if they saw the disciples of the Yashan Sect in the future, they would all be killed.

The affairs of the Yashan faction came to an end slowly, but the people in the rivers and lakes hated the imperial court Dongchang even more.

Originally, the relationship between Dongchang and Jianghu was an extremely embarrassing level, and the contradiction could intensify at any time. Now Dongchang actually did such an insidious thing to assassinate the colleagues in the rivers and lakes, which can be said to have completely torn the paper that maintained a relatively relaxed relationship between the imperial court and the rivers and lakes, which completely aroused the bloody anger of the people in the rivers and lakes, and some areas even raised the banner of overthrowing the Wu Dynasty and eliminating the Dongchang Dynasty, and began to attack and destroy the local government.

This matter was soon known to the imperial court and Dongchang.

Beijing, the base camp of the East Factory.

Wei Zhongxian was furious about this matter, and the people below were silent one by one, obediently suffering from Wei Zhongxian's anger.

"All of them are wine bags and rice bags! What has been done these days? What about the spies in the East Factory, bring me some favorable news? ”

"What's the use of this governor keeping you!"

Wei Zhongxian, who was full of gloom and anger, looked at the guys kneeling below, and really felt that it was an eyesore, and wanted to raise his hand several times to kill them on the spot one by one to relieve his anger.

But, in the end, reason prevailed.

Dongchang's current situation is not good, on the one hand, the emperor and ministers took the opportunity to exert pressure, and on the other hand, it was the assassination and assassination attack of the people in the rivers and lakes, which made him already anxious, and he must not do such a stupid thing that deviates from morality.

As he paced back and forth, thinking about how to resolve the situation, a voice came from below that reassured him a little.

"Father-in-law don't be impatient, it's not good to be so angry. The child rushed back smoothly this time, and he should share the worries and solve the problems for the father-in-law. ”
