Chapter 240: Vertical and Horizontal

The old dragon cave is not far from here, listen to the people in the town, the old dragon cave is on a hill on the side of the old dragon pond, according to legend, there was an old dragon living here, in the past, many people would go to worship the old dragon in the old dragon pond after being sick, but in recent decades there is no so spirit, the old dragon pond has become an abandoned place, hidden in the mountains.

We hurried to the old dragon pond, to the old dragon pond in the deep mountains, all we saw was a pool of stagnant water full of duckweed, exuding a strange smell, and there were traces of previous people's activities around the old dragon pond.

Walking around the old dragon pond, I found a hole that was covered by thorns on a hill next to the old dragon pond, and no one had ever come to the hole, I stood at the entrance of the cave and shouted, "Ancestor, are you there?" ”

The voice swayed slowly, stirring up bursts of echoes, and after a short time there were footsteps coming from the hole, and then I saw Sun Siren with an embarrassed face appeared in the thorn bushes, she was dressed in white and had been stained with a lot of dust, this night of running around, making her look a little tired, her hair was very messy, looking at her like this, I felt a little distressed.

Hurriedly pushed aside the thorn bush and entered the middle of the rise, and then restored the thorn bush to its original state, Sun Siren looked at us and smiled, "Sure enough, in the end, you are the only ones who can help me." ”

Yuan Shouyi and Huang Yunqiu didn't know why Qingchengshan suddenly attacked her, and asked, "Why did Qingchengshan suddenly do something to you?" ”

Sun Siren himself didn't know, and he looked very confused, "I don't know, there is no warning of this matter, the real person of the Qingcheng Mountain Sect is about to sit down, it should be because he is worried that after his death, our father-in-law's summit will be anti-guest, so he did it to us before he died, but I don't know what happened to the master." ”

I know the reason, but I don't know whether to tell Sun Siren or not, hesitated, or decided not to say, although this is a test for her, but the rest of the halls really want her life, it doesn't make much sense to say it, anyway, it's right to run for your life, so I comforted Sun Siren and said, "Your master's ability is so great, no one in Qingcheng Mountain can touch him, you can rest assured." Immediately added, "The Criminal Division and the Yin Division have already asked for someone from Qingcheng Mountain, because Zhang Boren was guaranteed by you to enter Qingcheng Mountain, and Qingcheng Mountain is in charge of teaching, if you are still there, they will definitely not let Zhang Boren go, so now not only Qingcheng Mountain, but even the Criminal Division and Yin Division are also looking for you." ”

Sun Siren's face was full of loneliness after hearing this, and he smiled bitterly, "If Qingcheng Mountain didn't have Zhangren Peak, it would have been replaced by other sects of Zhengyi a long time ago, but now I want to unload the mill and kill the donkey, which is a little chilling." ”

Except for the few people in the Patriarch's Palace, the rest of the people in Qingcheng Mountain are indeed full of ghosts, if it were me, I would suddenly experience such a thing, and I would be chilled, and then looked at the old dragon cave and said, "Fortunately, it's safe here." ”

Sun Siren shook his head, "When I gave you a dream, someone was peeking into your consciousness, they should have heard the three words I said, sooner or later they will decipher the meaning of those three sentences, this is not a place to stay for a long time, you have to leave as soon as possible." ”

"Do you know who's peeping?" Huang Yunqiu asked.

Sun Siren said, "It's not clear, it shouldn't be a person from Qingcheng Mountain, and there is no such person in Qingcheng Mountain for the time being." ”

……

When we were talking in the cave, we heard the sound of footsteps outside the cave, and then we saw a few people standing outside the old dragon cave.

Several people standing outside had seen it before, one of them was Zhang Kui in Qi County, and the other was Na Su Daji, and there was a white-headed old man standing next to him.

We were extremely surprised, we didn't know why these people suddenly appeared here, and we didn't know whether they were friends or foes, so we were silent, and after waiting for a few seconds, Su Daji's voice came from outside, "No need to hide, I know that you are inside, and the person who peeps into your consciousness is me." ”

We were even more surprised, what does this have to do with them?

Since it has been blocked at the door, it is useless for us to hide it, Sun Siren took the lead and walked out, and a few of us stood in the cave and stood with them across the thorn bushes, Sun Siren said, "What does this matter have to do with you?" ”

I looked at Zhang Kui and Su Daji in surprise, how can I say that we are also people who have helped them, and I said in my heart that they should not have come to trouble us.

Su Daji said, "The king said that your way of doing things is completely different from our way of doing things, you use a combination of vertical and longial, we use a combination of horizontal strategies, and we have now joined forces with Yin Si." ”

The theory of vertical and horizontal was first put forward by Yuan Shouyi and their ancestor Guiguzi, and was later applied to the general trend of the world. Hezong is to unite the six countries against the Qin state. Lian Heng united the powerful Qin State to eliminate the weak state.

"Han Feizi" said: The longitudinal, the weak to attack the strong; The one who is horizontal, the one is strong to attack the weak.

In other words, Di Xin and they have chosen to join forces with the powerful Yin Si, and they have begun to exclude dissidents, gradually growing their own forces, and after the rest of the forces are reshuffled, they will fight against the Yin Si, which is indeed completely different from our approach.

Now that he has joined forces with Yin Si, and now he has found us again, the purpose is very clear, that is, to do something to us.

I stared at Su Daji for a while, and saw that she had a white scarf hanging around her neck, blocking her wound, and I asked curiously, "Isn't your neck broken?" I couldn't even walk on the road before, why can I move freely now? ”

Su touched his neck and said with a smile, "We have a way." ”

I asked again, "We helped you in Qi County before, do you really want to do it to us with Yin Si?" ”

Zhang Kui used to be a soldier of the Shang Dynasty, and the most important thing was benevolence and righteousness, and he frowned and said, "In the eyes of Emperor Dongyue, you are always the most threatening enemy...... We don't really want to do that. ”

Now that we knew that it was the enemy, and that we were already facing each other, we didn't say much and pushed out of the thorn bushes.

Zhang Kui is a martial artist, and it is estimated that it is not Sun Siren's follow-up, but Su Daji and the white-headed old man behind her look dangerous, if they really want to fight, whether we can go or not, is really not certain.

Out of the Old Dragon Cave, Sun Siren said directly, "My life can't be given to you for the time being, so if you have the ability, I'll take it." ”

Sun Siren is the strongest person here, she is naturally standing at the forefront, since she can't die well, it is better to open the skylight and say something, and there is no need to waste so much time.

However, Su Daji said at this time, "We do owe you a favor, and it was you who saved me from the sword of the descendants of the Protoss in the first place. Let's go, give you an hour, and after an hour we will continue to chase you, and if we meet you again, we will have to resign ourselves to fate. ”

We looked at each other, and it was best if we didn't do anything, and they had relented, and I hurriedly said, "Thank you." "I'm afraid that Sun Siren will force his hand at this time.

A few people then got out of the way, and I hurriedly pulled Sun Siren away.

After walking a distance, Su Daji said to us in the rear, "The descendants of the Protoss have also come here, and the Criminal Division here seems to have begun to act, the Criminal Division has a good relationship with you, don't worry, but you have to pay attention to the Protoss, after all, the Protoss has a Jiang Ziya." ”

We responded and left the old dragon cave quickly, until we were relieved when we disappeared from the figure of a few of them, Sun Siren's face was very bad, his eyebrows were full of anger, and he said, "It's not a way to escape like this, you have to face it." ”

I said, "It's a while to be able to avoid it." ”

Sun Siren said, "I want to go back to Qingcheng Mountain and ask clearly, what do they mean!" ”

"You're crazy, those people in Qingcheng Mountain are waiting for you to go back." I was frightened by Sun Siren's idea, but she was right, there was no way to escape like this, so she said, "It's like a way to fight back." ”

Zhou Xiaoan, who had never spoken, said, "I'll tell my father and ask him to greet the Criminal Division here in Sichuan, don't get involved in this matter, if possible, let the Criminal Division in Sichuan help you." ”

"That's for the best." I said, with the help of the Criminal Division, we are under a lot of pressure.
