Volume 2 The Three Sacrifices of the Righteous Path Chapter 77 The Seven Tricks are exquisite
Since this day, there have been more rumors in the capital again, and the initiator of this rumor does not need to ask, it is His Majesty the Emperor, who first passed on Zhou Zhe, the deputy commander of the internal guard, to punish lawlessness in Xiling County, and naturally drew attention to Zhou Zhe.
"You don't know, this Zhou Zhe is not an ordinary person, this spring, he took hundreds of people to the Spirit Medium Mountain, it was a big killing, and the Northern Plains Flying General Meng Ge couldn't do anything about him. In the Chunfeng Building, a few noble children who drank flower wine shouted loudly, for fear that others would not know.
"Just blow it! How can such a person from Beiyuan not be known to the world? Moreover, the Psychic Medium Mountain is not a place where you can go whenever you want, unless the front-line battle group of a certain sect is exhausted. Can he have that strength?" argued the noble children at the same table.
"Then you don't know! Let me tell you, this is gossip, Zhou Zhe is Yang Jue's junior brother, Chen Dashuai's apprentice, but he has never entered the capital to meet the master, so he didn't directly announce it, I know it from the mouth of the forbidden army that changed guards, so how can it be fake, I don't believe you go to Li Bing's forbidden army to inquire, who in the north still doesn't know Zhou Zhe's name. It's really not going out for three days, and I'm impressed by the heroes of the world!" This person said with a lot of yearning, Pan Yifeng knew that there was no one besides the emperor who could send these noble sons to spread the news in this Chunfeng Building. Naturally, she will also find someone to help the trouble.
"Then it's no wonder, but how did he get the position of deputy commander of the internal guard?
"That's not it, the deputy commander of the internal guard, the temporary counselor of Longquan Pass Defense, that is Jane's figure in the emperor's heart, and a few days ago, I heard from the people in the palace that His Majesty the Emperor summoned Zhou Zhe to Beijing, and it was only in these few days. Let's see!"
Such rumors didn't spread for a few days, and before they waited for fermentation, new rumors arose, this time the rumors pointed directly to the relationship between Li Jiuyang and Yang Jue, after all, a princess, an internal security commander, or the same division, it can be regarded as a childhood sweetheart, a talented woman. This kind of lace news has naturally been frantically spread by many noble children, Li Jiuyang is a goddess-level figure in the hearts of Xungui's children, and it is impossible to describe Li Jiuyang's goodness with one word, and one of the things that Xungui's children are best at is to do it. During the day, I didn't think about tea and food, and sighed in front of my brothers,
"If you give birth to me, you will give birth to Yang Jue. β
At night, Chunfeng Lou drank flower wine, and then shouted loudly
"Raise a glass to eliminate sorrow and sorrow, Xiao Jiu married me white-headed. In the end, of course, all the nobles encouraged each other, and then collectively prostituted. This kind of bridge will also involve female dependents, the women of the Xungui family will not come out to show their faces, but there are rumors of cutting hair and piercing handkerchiefs, but it can't be specific to the person, who makes it a female dependent! Moreover, the reaction is the station of Ling Xiao Pavilion in the capital, the situation here is a little weird, Ling Xiao Pavilion's generation of young people are famous all over the world, Ye Tianyi and Ye Ziyu, brothers and sisters, are all fragrant and sweet, especially Ye Ziyu, no one can judge the accuracy of the battle group dispute. This is not a joke, but the praise of many top sect front-line battle groups. Which family doesn't have a few proud protΓ©gΓ©s, the emperor doesn't marry with Lingxiao Pavilion, then let's go!
There are those who wait and see to get first-hand information, there are also those who take their nephews and apprentices to recognize Menzi, and of course, there are those who plot to turn their faces against Ling Xiao Pavilion and Da Sheng and fight to lose both, and in the end they were all sent away by the resident deacon of Ling Xiao Pavilion with a word
"This is all rumors outside, and what does this Lingxiao Pavilion's housework have to do with you?"
It's been dismissed, but it's impossible for such an important rumor to be unfounded, the deacon of Ling Xiao Pavilion has a headache, is it to send such a rumor to Ling Xiao Pavilion? Won't it seem unstable?
But before this rumor could ferment, new news arrived, and it was not Ye Tianyi and Li Jiuyang who were rumored to marry Dasheng, but Li An'an and Ye Tianyi, the county lords of Qi Wangcheng. It's just that the deacon, who didn't have time to send the previous message to Ling Xiao Pavilion with a headache, finally couldn't bear such rumors anymore, and still sent a message to the door master to decide, otherwise I don't know what it will become.
The person who has had a headache in the past two days is not only the deacon of this Lingxiao Pavilion, but also one person, Qi Wangcheng. From the rumors of Li Jiuyang and Yang Jue two days ago, he sensed that something was wrong, and most of the people who were having fun in his casino were Xungui's children and sect disciples, which showed that this matter may not be groundless, and the matter of Ye Tianyi, who was reported later by his daughter Li An'an, made the little eyes even more slit. I went to the palace on the same day.
"I said, Brother Huang, you have done this in a bad way, Li Jiuyang married Yang Jue, so he should push my daughter into the fire pit, we are still not brothers. β
"Brother Qi Wang, listen to me. β
"I don't want to listen to you, I believe my ears have heard it, now it has been spread all over the capital, one or two noble sons and daughters will pass it on, they are all talking about it, even if they don't marry Ling Xiaoge in the future, then is there still a share of my daughter's choice? β
Qi Wangcheng was furious, Li Chi couldn't help it, although he was the emperor, but Qi Wangcheng was a brother after all, and Yu Dasheng had merit, when he first ascended the throne, the world was unstable, the northern plains were shaky, and there was no Qi Wangcheng to guard Longquan Pass, how could he have the hand to come out to stabilize the world, and Qi Wangcheng later brought out Chen Yuanhou, and he was even more happy to hand over the military power, and he could have returned to the fiefdom to enjoy the peaceful days of retirement, but in order to help him collect intelligence, he opened such a casino. It can really be said that he has done his best to Dasheng, Qi Wangcheng is much older than Li Chi, and his sons are not angry, but he is really very pleasing to him, and he can be said to be a daughter raised with a sharp heart, how can he bear to let her marry Ling Xiao Pavilion?
"Brother Qi Wang, am I not discussing with you? Besides, Ye Tianyi is not bad, the most outstanding figure of the younger generation in the dignified Lingxiao Pavilion is a few years younger than Yang Jue... β
Li Chi was halfway through his words, but was directly interrupted by Qi Wangcheng.
"Brother Huang, have you seen it? Ling Xiao Pavilion agreed? What if An An doesn't like it?" Li Chi, who asked directly three times, was speechless.
"Isn't it embarrassing for both sides to pass on these words without even a word?
"Alas, Brother Qi Wang, this is the original intention of what I did! If Ling Xiao Pavilion does not agree, then he will definitely investigate the issue of this rumor, if he agrees, won't everyone be happy? I am tempting, I am plotting. Although I haven't seen Ye Tianyi, I've always heard of it, right? After saying this, looking at Qi Wangcheng's expression was quite satisfied, Emperor Li Chi breathed a sigh of relief, everyone wants to be an emperor, how can there be an emperor like me, worry about the court and the world, and worry about these children's affairs.
"It's pretty much the same, if it really happens then, the pomp and circumstance will have to be bigger, but it can't weaken my daughter's style. β
"It's all as you wish, it's all as you wish. β
Rumors are surging in the capital, and outside the capital, the situation is treacherous, which is destined to be an eventful autumn. Under the city wall of a small county town nearly 100 miles south of the capital, a father and daughter are eating a few cakes.
"Daddy, who are they, why are they looking for us?" asked a little girl with big bright eyes, chewing on a hard dough, curiously asking her father.
"Xiaomeng, they are bad people, bad people who specialize in doing bad things, they want to arrest you to refine medicine, so you must not go with them, you must go to Longquan Pass, find Dashuai, and we will be safe." The middle-aged man said as he took off his black armor and put dirt on it
Smeared on his body and his daughter's body, pretending to be a refugee.
"Then when you get to Longquan Pass, can you still eat white-flour steamed buns?" In Xiaomeng's eyes, there is nothing more delicious than white-flour steamed buns. While chewing on the white flour bun, he allowed the middle-aged man to smear the black plaster mud on his body and face.
"Yes! Not only can you eat white flour buns every day, but you can also eat meat that can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year. There are also many big brothers and sisters to play with you, Longquanguan is the best place in the world. β
"Daddy, have you ever been to Longquan Pass?
"Of course it's big, there are cows, sheep and horses everywhere, everyone grows grain, and the white-faced buns of Dunton, my father used to be a soldier there, and then I returned to my hometown to marry your mother, and I have you. β
The night was obscured by the starlight, and the father and daughter whispered to each other in the crowd of refugees under the wall, waiting for the dawn. And they are looking forward to Zhou Zhe in Longquan Pass, will also rush back to the capital in the morning, this night, almost sleepless, Zhou Zhe came back from Xiling County, under Lao Chen's point seems to be calm, calm because of thinking. But on the night of farewell, there is no need to think, Gao Laofei, Qi Lu, Li Hao, Qu Hui, these people who will stay in Longquan Pass will naturally enjoy drinking and talking. And those who went to the capital with Zhou Zhe were still the three hundred brothers who lived and died together, and of course Wu Shudao and Yuan Fang's brothers. Lao Chen left the table early under the pretext that he was too drunk, and everyone could see his reluctance, maybe he would quietly say goodbye in the morning on the high guard tower of Longquan Pass. It's really the fifth watch of the dream of the building,
The bottom of the flower is separated from the July rain.
"There is wine today, and there is drunkness today, and tomorrow there will be no drunkenness. Although it is only a few hundred miles to the capital, it can be reached in dozens of days, but it does not prevent them from expressing their emotions. The commotion and coaxing everyone did not stop until midnight, and Zhou Zhe, who didn't drink much, looked at the small courtyard under the starlight and the dark city wall in the distance, and had a lot of thoughts. The spiritual grass in the flower pot in the corner of the wall is still there, but it may not be taken care of in the future, back to the room, his hand slid over the table and tea bowl in the room, looking at the beam where Xin Chai had fallen asleep, thinking about the past.
In the early morning of the next day, Lao Chen did not say goodbye as expected, and the other people probably did not show up again because they had drunk too much, only Qu Hui rode a horse and accompanied Zhou Zhe for a long distance before returning to the customs. Zhou Zhe looked back from time to time at the tall watchtower of Longquan Pass, hoping to see Chen Yuanhou again, until he saw a figure standing there on a watchtower from a distance. Just like the first time he came to Longquan Pass, he felt that there was one person and one sword, and the color of the world changed. Lao Chen didn't teach him much, only one thing, Dao Heart. If you have your own way, you will walk out of a road by yourself, Zhou Zhe's own way.
"The secret of your body may be able to bring you strength, but in this world, strength alone will not work, strength is only a part of the strength, and the Tao can help you enhance your strength and make you firm in your beliefs. What's yours?
Don't tell me. Shape up or ship out. Lao Chen muttered to himself on the towering watchtower, and he didn't leave for a long time, even though Zhou Zhe's people had long since disappeared into the distance.
In the capital, not long after several major rumors a few days ago, a bombshell news broke the silence. At first, it was just a dying internal guard who rode into the capital alone, and died at the south gate of the capital before he could deliver an effective message. The forbidden army defending the city did not dare to be careless, and notified the internal guard, who informed Yang Jue. But the news still leaked, there were so many people coming and going at the city gate, and they recognized the internal guards of the black armor and gold dragon head. Moreover, the internal guards are at least ten people acting together, what is the matter with the direct return of one internal guard to the city on the verge of death this time? No one dares to be careless, who is the person who attacked the internal guard? Yang Jue naturally wants to investigate, the total number of internal guards is only 10,000 people, excluding those who are stationed in various places, and the mobile force in their hands is only 3,000, and they have to be sent out from time to time to deal with the endless things that have emerged in various places. It's not that things against the internal guard haven't happened, but every time it happens, there is something big about happening.
Closed the city gate, and the emperor and Jiao Dajun after the city gate was closed, dare to kill the internal guards in the Gyeonggi range, such a major event can not tolerate the slightest difference, Yang Jue is with the most capable cadres and Debiao personally went south to investigate, and it didn't take long for the information to come.
"Seven Tricks Exquisite?" Yang Jue couldn't believe it, there are not people in this world who are amazing and talented, but the talent of the Seven Tricks is not called arbitrarily, Bai Shanshui, the core disciple of this generation of the Sword Sect, has gone through life and death, and has gone through six soul explosions to get the seven tricks now, which can be counted as an outlier for hundreds of years. The title of a heavy sword without a blade is even more well-deserved, but such a talent appears in an 8-year-old girl, which is incredible.
Yang Jue's first reaction when he got the information was unbelievable, a little girl who had never opened the path of spiritual cultivation was actually born with seven exquisite skills, as long as she opened the spiritual gate, her strength would increase by leaps and bounds. Moreover, there is also a very evil method, refining the people with the seven exquisite knots into pills, which can enhance the talent. In this way, the death of the inner guard makes sense, this little girl is comparable to a treasure. Whether it is accepted as a disciple or refined into a pill, it will make a sect be in its peak state for nearly a hundred years in the future, with seven exquisite tricks and six orders to be expected.
"Tracing the whereabouts, all the cultivators who meet in this area, no matter which sect or scattered cultivators, will ask separately where they came from. If there are those who resist, they will be killed. Let's do it!" Yang Jue just finished issuing the order. A red light came from far and near
"Ding!" Yang Jue's spear steadily swung away the stabbing dagger and looked at the comer.
"Yang Jue, the reaction is quite fast!Is there any good thing to share?" A white dress is like a dream, standing quietly, the dagger has long been gone, not Xin Chai, who is it.
"Why are you here? The little junior brother will return to Beijing in a few days, why don't you go to him?" Yang Jue put down his gun and motioned for the guards to send a horse over.
"Why can't I come, this Gyeonggi is also the door of my Blood Moon Hall, I came by myself, what is the matter with me when Zhou Zhe returns to Beijing, why doesn't he come to me? Tell me! Is there anyone who wants to help?" Xin Chai was unceremonious and got on the horse sent by Yang Jue.
Anyway, sooner or later, you will know that I don't know which mountain gate found an 8-year-old girl, who was born with seven tricks. Now that the news has spread, there are not a few sects searching for it, and I am afraid that I can meet a lot of old friends!" Yang Jue said in the end, he was compassionate, he was now a sixth order, and he was not the same.
"Seeing that you are full of confidence and are bound to win, you look like Zhou Zhe, you are really a natural brother. You can't really be a sixth order, are you!, what are you going to do with that little girl?" Xin Chai was also full of confidence.
"You guessed it!It's the sixth order, that little girl wants to be included in the door, and there are countless top-level inheritances in the Tianshu Gate, wouldn't it be a pity if there is no one to inherit it?"
"It's a pity that I don't have a successor in the Blood Moon Hall, why don't I give you a spirit stone and give it to my apprentice?
"Deal. If there are old friends here, I will hold people back, and you can take the children back to Beijing first, which can be safe. Yang Jue was also hearty and immediately began to assign tasks.
"No problem. A gentleman's word, the horse is difficult to chase. Xin Chai said so in his mouth, but he didn't think so in his heart, when the time comes, he will rob someone, who will give you the spirit stone, I am a woman, not a gentleman, and Zhou Zhe is back, if you dare to ask for it, I will dare to give it.
Yang Jue originally thought that with the combination of his Sixth Order and Xin Chai, he would succeed in finding the child and bringing it back with at least five layers, but with the further transmission of information, this thought began to waver, and the cold of the Qiankun Gate went out with him, taking the eight sons of Qiankun with him. Ye Tianyi of Lingxiao Pavilion, Ye Ziyu's brother and sister
With the three turtles in the sky. The Hanging Mountain Qin Saint Cheng Luoluo and the Hanging Nine Stars are all searching in different directions, and the other second- and third-rate sects are even more numerous.
"What about the Sword Sect? Is there any news from the Sword Sect? "Those second- and third-rate sects are not in Yang Jue's eyesight, three of the four major sects have appeared, it is impossible for the Sword Sect not to come!
Yang Jue, who had been searching for many days, looked at the dark clouds in the sky, and his heart was dull, things were developing in a direction that was beyond his control. Under the competition between the various sects, killing is inevitable, and the scattered cultivators are like sharks that smell blood, taking advantage of the fire to rob the third-rate sects that are dispatched, snatching the money of the spiritual fluid, weapons, or killing each other. No one dared to provoke the warbands of the three top sects, not that they didn't dare, but that they knew that they couldn't fight and still provoked them, which was really looking for death. As for the internal guards, no one provoked them, and it was not that they did not dare, but they disliked that the internal guards were too poor. The armor of the black golden dragon head is a stall even in the eyes of the loose cultivators, don't expect to find the spiritual liquid on this group of people, it really fights with this group of people in a very orderly manner, and it is not good to break the big teeth.
In addition to these sects killing each other, the county towns south of Gyeonggi also suffered. In addition to being raided, hundreds of thousands of local people also had to be interrogated, whether they had seen a little girl of a few years? Have they seen a little girl of a few years? Have they seen a little girl of a few years? Even if a normal person is asked the same question every day, he will collapse, not to mention that these people kill people like slaughtering dogs and chickens? There are such spiritual cultivators interrogating everywhere, and many families with little girls in their families do not even dare to go out, and some little girls are cut off their hair and dressed as little boys for fear of trouble.
For three days, Yang Jue immediately pinched the information and his face turned pale, Xin chased him and looked at him, but he didn't speak, this is not the first time such a thing has happened. Yang Jue felt that he was derelict in his duties, and he wondered if he should ask Jiao Dajun to mobilize the forbidden army to suppress it. But it soon became clear that even if the forbidden army came, it could not be suppressed, and many refugees from the county town who had been plagued by locust-like spiritual cultivators began to flee north. The ordinary people are miserable in their lives, and their ability to resist natural and man-made disasters is insufficient. In today's situation, there is no choice but to flee the famine. Seeing that some of the people around him fled north with their families, and some of them didn't even have shoes, Yang Jue could foresee that maybe he would starve to death if he couldn't escape from Star City. Xin Chai also began to be silent, how far they could go on such a road.
The three days of change are also the three days of Zhou Zhe's suffering, if he is a heartless person, he can be regarded as not seeing all this, but all this happened in front of his eyes. These things have to start from the Star City three days ago, at this moment the person stationed in the Star City is still Lao Ling, of course, there are also two thousand sergeants in Longquan Pass, led by a man named Guo Dayong, who can be regarded as a rising star in the army. Zhou Zhe originally just wanted to take a simple rest in this Star City and say goodbye to Lao Ling, but he never thought that something had happened and he came for Zhou Zhe.
Someone wants to enlist in the army, which is a good thing, but it is to be Zhou Zhe's soldier.
"I'm Xie Baolong, a man from Hedong who stands up to the sky. I should have enlisted in the army to kill thieves, but my legs and feet are not good when I'm old, but I have a lot of ruthlessness. I only ask the general to take in my son, even if it is only for the general to lead the horse and whip. A skinny middle-aged man dragged out his equally emaciated son behind him, but it could be seen that he was just malnourished and had a lot of strength.
"Dad, I want to be a soldier and report to Officer Ling, but I can't mess around here. β
"You don't understand, General Zhou's soldiers are different from others, so follow him immediately. Xie Baolong is very stubborn, and he doesn't care how many people are offended by this sentence. Of course, Zhou Zhe refused
"My soldiers are all killed in the Spirit Medium Mountain, and whoever pulls them out is a well-known man. My brother Zhou Zhe lived and died together, Longquan Pass has the rules of Longquan Pass, enlist in the army, either start as an auxiliary soldier or go to be a ranger. You refugees are no exception. β
