Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Invitation
Beacon Hill.
Seeing Ah Zi walking into the courtyard, Wu Yong was a little surprised, so he heard the woman in purple say lightly: "The master was strictly looked at by the old man, so he asked me to come over." Master Wuyong, what have you discovered?"
Wuyong bowed slightly, but he didn't rush to say what he saw, but asked Ah Zi a question: "I remember that Xia Pingya is a high-level earth immortal?"
"Yes, but he is still a big step away from the old man and Senior Shen, and he is just getting a glimpse of the doorway. Seeing that Wu Yong didn't speak, Ah Zi's tone was a little puzzled: "What's the matter?"
Three hundred nodded: "My brother did feel the power of the Dream Illusion Method, but the evidence was too ...... And Xia Pingya doesn't necessarily have a reason to do so. We are just speculating that he may have given himself a Gu, and he can temporarily reach a higher level by absorbing demon power, but the demon power will also be exhausted, so he has to break the lock demon tower from time to time to replenish. ”
This inference was too bold, Ah Zi was silent for a while, and after a while, she pursed her lips: "I really haven't seen him make a few moves." Master Wuyong, what are the chances that you can confirm this guess?"
The man in white opened his palm and shook it, looking a little embarrassed: "It's only fifty percent." ”
"Good. The woman in purple breathed a sigh of relief and nodded slowly: "I'll go back and tell the master immediately, I will come over to talk about something important." Saying that, the man left in a hurry, and the three hundred wanted to ask how Jun Luo was, but Ah Zi was gone. Seeing that she is in such a hurry, it can be seen that Shangguan Ming is really angry this time, and I am afraid that I will not be able to see Jun Luo for a while.
July turned his pink umbrella and looked up thoughtfully: "Qingchi should also come back." ”
"Where did she go?" asked Wu Yong in a faint voice.
The woman in pink shook her head: "She said there are some things to deal with. ”
Lei Xian on the side sneered: "Listen to that old widow's lies! She is the demon of the realm of Tanzhou, maybe she will go back to see whom!"
"Dead frog has you everywhere!" A loud shout came from outside the door, Qing Chi raised his hand and a red light hit him, Lei Xian hurriedly dodged, and did not forget to make a grimace: "Yo, why are you back? ”
"The old lady doesn't care about you. Leng threw down such a sentence, Qing Chi looked around, but did not see Jun Luo: "Where is the master?"
July pointed to the distance: "I was grounded by the old owner." Ah Zi just left, what's the matter with you?"
The woman in red raised her eyebrows, as if she was a little surprised: "It's okay." Then I'll go back to sleep first, I'm a little tired. She raised her foot and was just about to leave, when Wuyong stopped her: "Qingchi, you were originally in Tanzhou?"
Thinking that the frog really had a long tongue, Qingchi nodded: "Yes, I gave birth there." ”
"The demon king in the Hengshan Lock Demon Tower, do you know it?" Wuyong just asked, but Qing Chi was shocked in her heart, but she knew very well that Wuyong had no possibility of knowing that she and Ye Panruo knew each other, and her heart also settled down: "When I was imprisoned here, I was only a little demon for more than three hundred years, and I was just a little demon at that time, where would I get to those people? Besides, the demon world is the weak, and the demon of three or four hundred years is the easiest to promote cultivation, I can't hide yet, how dare I know it? I'm not the rabbit demon, I have a good godfather." ”
"After more than three hundred years of cultivation, why are you sealed here?" The man in white frowned slightly, he didn't know about Qingchi, and it was normal for him to be suspicious. After all, Lei Xian, Eagle Pheasant, and Qiyue have all lived for nearly two thousand years, but because of the consumption of the Great Array, their strength is only four or five percent, which is the same as the thousand-year cultivation, while the Qing Chi Three Hundred Years of Cultivation has been imprisoned in the Great Array, and has lived in the formation until now, anyone will be surprised.
The beautiful eyes moved, Qing Chi was silent for a moment, and smiled lightly: "At that time, Lao Jun wanted to arrest my master, and my master treated me as a substitute for the dead ghost, so I came in." The stronger the demon, the easier it is to be ground to death by the formation, and I can be regarded as having exploited the loophole and survived until now. Master Wuyong suddenly asked, there must be a reason for this, right? I don't know what the reason is?"
Three hundred and Wuyong glanced at each other, and sighed softly: "Hengshan Lock Demon Tower is out of seal, and the Demon King breaks the tower and leaves, it is a bamboo demon, we suspect that it hid in Xiaoxiang." Moreover, the lower floors of the lock demon tower were all destroyed, and the demon king and that person had a fight on the sixth floor, that is, he knew who it was. ”
Changan. Imperial Palace Chaoyuan Hall.
Qi Xing sat on the dragon chair and listened to the war of words among the ministers in the court, and his heart was inexplicably irritable. Yesterday, Concubine Li came and said that the harem was not clean, there were demons doing evil, and five palace maids had died, all of them were miserable;
Yu Qian is dead, and there is a vacancy in this national teacher, so it should indeed be ......
"Your Majesty, it can be seen that we cannot continue to attack the Uighurs, and we should withdraw our troops immediately!" said Wu Qiu, the squire of the military department, sincerely. The old emperor frowned, a little impatient: "Wu Aiqing, now that the Uighur king has died and the Uighur country is in chaos, it is a good time to take the Uighurs in one fell swoop, you don't need to say it anymore." ”
"Your Majesty! The Uighurs are connected with Tibet and Western Xia, and if the Yuan is strong today, the three will definitely be in unison, and if they continue to march, I am afraid that they will be cut off by Western Xia and Tibet!"
"This is what the generals in front are worried about, and Wu Aiqing doesn't have to worry too much. This is a God-given opportunity to destroy the Uighurs, and I can't miss it!" Qi Xing said sternly, his gaze swept over the people above: "Today, Concubine Li and I said that the harem is not clean, and there seems to be a demon at work, and I also feel weak today. ”
As soon as this remark came out, it was as if a * had been thrown, and there was a lot of discussion in the court for a while, although I didn't understand how the always virtuous emperor had become like this, but he quickly suppressed himself - His Majesty is becoming more and more moody, it is better not to annoy him.
"Father, Yuyi has a proposal. If you gather the famous immortal monks in one place and then show them the corpses, you will be judged in this way, and you will save a lot of time. If a fundraising order is issued, it will be uneven, and there will be indiscriminate fillers. Qi Yu, dressed in a dark purple brocade robe, stepped forward and said. Qi Xing was overjoyed when he heard this, patted the armrest, and said, "Since this is the case, this matter will be handed over to you." ”
"Yes, Father. Yuding lived up to his father's expectations. The man stepped back, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
Yuwang Mansion.
Qi Yu stood in front of the porch with his hands in his hands, looking at the old willow tree that had just sprouted, thoughtfully. A subordinate on the side walked over with several stacks of official documents: "Your Highness, this is the official document of the Yiyang flood." and the immortal sect and powerful monks you asked me to check, all here. ”
"Hmm. The man nodded lightly and picked up the list: "Since the death of the national teacher, my father has become more and more irritable, and now there are frequent murders in the harem, and my father is also looking for monks." Shushan has always been a famous family, but it doesn't participate in the world, and the rest of it ...... This king will write an invitation, and you will send someone to send it, and it must be delivered within three days. ”
The man was stunned for a moment: "Your Highness is going to ......"
"This king personally came to see if these famous families and celebrities could afford to be invited by this king. Throwing the list in his hand into a stack of official documents, Qi Yu hooked his lips: "By the way, I heard that the sword village where the fourth brother has been ordering weapons is also an immortal gate?"
"Back to Your Highness, Daizong Sword Village is a famous family in the Immortal Sect, and it is also on the list. ”
"Really?" Qi Yu laughed, his eyes were cold: "Send an invitation to Jianzhuang too, but it will be sent later." ”
"Yes, Your Highness. ”
Seeing that the secret guard retreated, a person walked out of the room, and it was Wei Kun, the secretary of the military department of the current dynasty. He looked at Qi Yu and sighed lightly: "Now that there is no one in the court who can be your enemy, why does Your Highness bother to make such a step?"
"Calculation is not Yu's original intention, Lord Wei's words are wrong. The Han clan is eyeing the tiger and wants to fight the trapped beasts, how can Yu ignore it? Do you have to let the mermaid flesh? The battle for the throne has become a defeat for the king, although Yu is the eldest son, his father has been slow to establish a prince, which has already caused rumors to spread outside; if he let his uncle go at this time, the Han family is afraid that he will really be able to turn over. Qi Yu said lightly, his tone was so indifferent that Wei Kun frowned slightly.
After a long time, Wei Kun shook his head: "Your Majesty's preference for the former queen is abnormal, so the relatives are rampant, except for Liu Bin, it is in accordance with Your Majesty's wishes, Your Highness is so smart, how can you deal with the king of a country?"
"Thank you, Lord Wei, for the mention. The man smiled slightly and said, "It's not too early, the adults should go back, Yuzi will consider it, and he will not disappoint the adults." ”
Seeing Wei Kun leave, Qi Yu said lightly: "Prepare a sedan chair, this king will go to Yufu for a trip." ”
Yu Mansion.
"Let's take a break. Feng Zhiqi poured Yu Tianhe a cup of tea and persuaded him gently. The man in purple rubbed his eyebrows, took the tea, and thanked him: "Thank you, senior sister." Where's Xiaoshu?
Feng Zhiqi smiled helplessly: "You said that she did say too much, and blamed people for crying? Master Immortal passed away and no one felt comfortable, Xiaoshu was born negligent in the immortal law, Tianhe, you should also put her position right, if you let her be a mortal, you can't ask her too much." ”
Yu Tianhe sighed and nodded rather annoyedly: "Is the old mansion of Zhongnanshan okay? ”
"It's not hard, I can count on watching you grow up, these are the things that should be done. The Yu family's sword technique is violent, and it is very easy to go crazy if you forcibly practice, Tianhe, you don't have to be too anxious, step by step, I have confidence in you and the Yu family. ”
Feng Zhiqi's tone was extraordinarily gentle, which soothed the anger in Yu Tianhe's heart very well, he naturally knew the meaning of his senior sister's words, and he also came to his senses that he was a little anxious for quick success in the past few days, and he was indeed affected by the knife technique, so he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "What Senior Sister said is that it's not too early, I'll go see Xiaoshu." ”
The woman covered her mouth and smiled: "Go, go, you brothers and sisters, all of you have learned to change your face." ”
"Family master, King Yu is here!" Yu Tianhe was just about to get up, and a small guy ran over in a panic. Hearing this, the man frowned slightly: "What is King Yu doing here?" Please go to the front hall, I will be there soon." ”
"Yes. ”
As soon as Qi Yu walked into the main hall, he saw Yu Tianhe leading Yu Tianshu to salute him: "See His Royal Highness King Yu!" The man smiled slightly: "The head of the Yu family is polite." Is there any disturbance to the head of the family at this time?"
"King Yu's words are wrong. I don't know if King Yu is coming, but what's going on in the palace?" Yu Tianhe smiled slightly and asked. The girl next to him obviously did not meet Qi Yu for the first time, and she had a bad impression of Qi Yu, so she stood aside after saluting, and did not speak, with indifference written on her face. Yu Tianshu has been in and out of the palace since he was a child, and he is quite friendly with Qi Zhen, the fourth highness, and he is very unkind to see this seemingly gentle but vicious prince.
"Don't hide it from the head of the family, but something strange has happened in the palace recently. And this strange thing seems to have affected-" Qi Yu suddenly silenced, pointed upward, and continued: "So the Yu clan didn't hear the movement. ”
"What's the matter?" Yu Tianshu also came to his senses and asked.
Qi Yu sighed helplessly: "There seems to be a demon in the palace. ”
