Chapter 107 The Great Change and the Dead
"Are you really going back?"
Zhong Danran looked at the man in front of him and said worriedly:
"This time, I'm afraid there will be more than one luck!"
"Then what's the solution, if you don't go, it may be even more auspicious in the future!"
The man didn't seem to have a future way back and looked sad, and tasted the edelweiss tea in front of him lightly, with a pair of black eyes with a hint of darkness.
"I really didn't expect that Your Majesty would disappear! Isn't he already at the peak of Juxuan, how could he disappear for no reason, could it be that the Xuanwu Kingdom has come to the Lingxu Realm?"
Zhong Danran frowned, looked at the man in front of him uneasily, and asked suspiciously.
"Impossible!" the man put down the teacup, stood up, and walked to the window, with a pair of handsome eyes like clear water, straight through the sky, and said:
"Zhong Lao thinks too much, if he really comes to the Great Cultivator of the Lingxu Realm, I'm afraid he will not only do this to get rid of his father, it will be the day of the destruction of our Xuanwu Kingdom!"
"Yes, but Your Majesty doesn't have an accident sooner or later, and you have to disappear before the Eastern Regions Alliance, isn't it a little too weird, and after autumn, it is the day of the large-scale invasion of the northern barbarians, if the Xuanwu Kingdom is in chaos at this time, then this is ......"
Zhong Danran didn't dare to continue, if it really developed as he said, I am afraid that even the Immortal Refining Pavilion would not be spared.
There are no eggs under the nest, and this sentence is not just talking.
"Therefore, please also ask Zhong Lao to support me to take the throne this time, otherwise, the Xuanwu Kingdom will be in chaos, and I am afraid that not only will there be misery at that time, but even you and I will have no place to stay!"
The man sighed and closed his eyes, as if he didn't want to face such a bad ending.
"Didn't the Eighth Prince think that His Majesty was doing a test on a few princes or going to the Purification Sect to seek the Tao before leaving?
Zhong Danran still thinks that there is something greasy here, and he doesn't give up.
"I've thought about this for a long time, and I've also planted eyeliner, whether it's in the palace or the Purification faction, there is no figure of my father, and we even suspect that he has ......"
The last word the Eighth Prince didn't dare to say, but the meaning couldn't be more obvious, Zhong Danran was also startled, and his heart beat violently uncontrollably.
"In any case, I still have to go back and see, this time whether it is about the throne or not, I have to meet with a few brothers, even if I don't think about the throne at that time, then I have to decide a way to live, I have led troops for many years, and I never like to give my back to others, even if it is a brother or relative!"
The Eighth Emperor said, pressed his hands on a wooden table in front of the window, and his palms were like a soldering iron, sinking deeply.
"...... like this"
Zhong Danran took a deep breath, as if he wanted to spit out the uneasiness just now, and said in a deep voice:
"Then does the Eighth Emperor have anything to explain? The old man is easy to do, and if he needs a seal mage or a casting master, he can also give orders! As long as you remember, the old man should go all out!"
"Hehe......"
Qianshan turned around, waved a green hand in front of Zhong Danran, and said with a smile:
"Then, you're welcome, Zhong Lao, I want that ......"
"You...... Are you sure?"
When Zhong Danran heard this, the green tendons on his forehead jumped violently, as if he was frightened by something, and he asked again in disbelief:
"You...... Aren't you afraid of death? If you use that, if you're in the Imperial City, you won't be able to escape!"
"So, please help Zhong Lao think about it again, is there a way to save my life after using it!"
Qianshan looked like he was in front of Zhong Danran again, staring at the old man with his dark and deep eyes.
Zhong Danran was silent, and even lowered his head, not to avoid his eyes, but to hesitate.
"I know that Zhong Lao, you have actually thought about this question for a long time, right, even you, covet the power of that thing, don't you? You must have been studying silently for so many years, otherwise, the previous generation of old pavilion masters would really not be able to turn a blind eye, think about it, if the improvement is successful, your Immortal Refining Pavilion will not only be able to make a name for itself in the Xuanwu Kingdom, but even the entire Eastern Regions, no, even the Immortal Sect will be impressed by you, this is also one of the goals you have pursued all your life!"
Qianshan has always known the Refining Immortal Pavilion very clearly, so when he said this, he would guess what Zhong Danran's expression would be, and he was not in a hurry, just waiting for Zhong Danran to reply.
"Alas......"
Zhong Danran thought for a long time, and the first sentence was not to respond, but to sigh first, looking even more bitter and hateful, like a resentful woman abandoned by her husband's family, full of reluctance, but she had to do it, so she could only sigh:
"As soon as this thing comes out, if it spreads, I'm afraid it will alarm the world, let the Immortal Sect know, at that time, our Immortal Refining Pavilion will suffer, you also know the horror of immortals, but it's not something that we, the refiners, can deal with, you can, but the consequences are ......"
He paused and said:
"Don't blame the old man for being so hesitant, it's really a big deal, oh, it's the product of the painstaking efforts of the previous pavilion masters, and now it's just a prototype, just hand it over like this, the old man is afraid that I'm sorry for the ancestors!"
"Then, Old Zhong, you watched me jump into the sea of fire, and finally I was burned to death by the second brother, and then the Xuanwu Kingdom changed dynasties, can you still live a good life like now?"
Qianshan glanced at the words and said:
"I heard that this thing was still the first generation of pavilion masters, that is, the first refiner in the Eastern Regions, Master Shenyuan, realized it on the battlefield, and now, nearly a thousand years have passed, but it is still in the dust in the Immortal Refining Pavilion, doesn't it make his old man feel cold, even if it is not successful?
He stood up, picked up the teapot on the table of the Eight Immortals, came to the wooden cabinet on the side, took out some tea leaves, returned to the table again, and said:
"You see, there are only a few people who can drink this snow-melting tea, if it is really so delicious, can it not spread to the world? But now! Zhong Lao, have you heard of anyone who has really drunk it, or has it been widely sown in order to be able to drink him? Or it's not because it's too well-known, and the edelweiss tea in my hand, but every high-end teahouse in the streets and alleys will buy, after countless generations of improvement, now the taste has been excellent, than the melting snow tea taste I don't know how many times better, the two kinds of tea are just a word difference, the taste is very different, but you don't care, and I think this tea tastes really good! In fact, in my mouth, it's just a rotten leaf!"
Rotten leaves!
Zhong Danran looked at a pot of tea, and fell into a sluggishness affectionately.
Taking advantage of this, Qianshan stood up at a glance, threw the edelweiss tea leaves in his hand into the air, and the person walked out of the house directly.
As the breeze blows, the tea leaves also roll in the air, overflowing with a rich fragrance that moistens the heart and spleen, which is actually several times richer than the one soaked in the teacup.
Such a fragrance undoubtedly proves that the words of a thousand mountains at a glance are good, no matter what is a small group of people studying and tinkering there, after all, it is still too closed, and if you don't go to the actual battle, you can't see any obstacles, it's just ......
He still had some concerns in his heart, and these considerations were not only about the mass murder weapon, but also about the threat from afar.
Just then, a voice came out:
"Pavilion Master, it's time for a meeting, everyone has been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Oh, okay, right away!"
Zhong Danran glanced at the comers, then stood up, dressed up the clothes of the Pavilion Master of the Refining Immortal Pavilion neatly, and then walked out.
The topic of today's meeting is the dead.
That's right, it's a dead person, and the continuous death of people in the Immortal Refining Pavilion at this stage has already made many people in the Pavilion panic, and they can't even focus on the refining seal, so they can only invite everyone to think of a way together.
Zhong Danran was sitting in front of him, looking at the many deputy pavilion masters and deacons below, and couldn't help but pouted his lips playfully.
It's been many years, and I don't know how many times the Immortal Refining Pavilion has held meetings, and it's the first time that so many people can come, it's really not easy.
It seems that if it weren't for the threat of death, many people probably wouldn't even care if they were in the Immortal Refining Pavilion.
"Pavilion Master, two more have died this month! If it goes on like this, it really can't work!"
One of the deacons looked frightened and was the first to speak.
"Oh, tell me about the situation!"
Zhong Danran frowned again, listening to the introduction of the people around him.
Although he is the cabinet master, because he is usually busy studying the seal law, he doesn't know much about these things of his subordinates.
"It happened at the beginning of this year, an apprentice died, when he died in his own house, the members of our law enforcement cabinet went to check, and no wounds were detected, whether internal or external, none of them were found, the whole person was intact, it was normal from the inside out, and even the organs were taken out and examined failed to detect any poison, and in the end it could only be treated as his sudden death, and it was over, but who would have thought, this is just the beginning!"
Another deacon tragically introduced:
"It's okay after a month, we didn't pay attention, who would have thought that another apprentice would die in the third month, and he still didn't see any wounds, and this time he Jingdong Jin Deputy Pavilion Master!"
The deacon turned his gaze to the old man who was in good spirits.
"Well, the old man has also checked, and he really didn't check any signs of injury, I have to say that the murderer's methods this time are really good, and the old man even thinks that he is not from our Xuanwu country at all, or from that side......"
"Over there, where is that?"
Someone asked curiously.
Jin Bugui didn't seem to have the intention of answering, just sat in his chair and remained silent, not saying a word.
But his solemn expression indicates that this "there" is not a simple place, and perhaps even an extremely dangerous place.
"Okay, let's keep talking, don't mention that place yet, we'll talk about this later!"
Zhong Danran waved his hand, as if to suppress everyone's curiosity, and continued to ask.
The deacon received the promise and continued to preach:
"Then it's the fifth month, and two actually died! When we encounter such a thing, we can't sit still anymore, and we mobilize many deacons and deputy deacons to search for the Apprentice Quanlian Immortal Pavilion, and we won't let go of any place, but there is still no result! And then it's the seventh month, and two have also died, so I'm looking for you to see what's going on!"
After the deacon finished speaking, the people below were silent, apparently knowing what had happened.
Zhong Danran pondered for a while and asked:
"Who are these dead people? What kind of identity and background do they have? Have they been in contact with other people? Who is the deacon and deputy deacon who led the team?"
"They are all apprentices, they have no background, they are ordinary, they entered through external recruitment, they are very honest and responsible after coming in, and they don't have much contact with outsiders, three of them are refining apprentices, three are seal law apprentices, refining apprentices are with Li Mingzhao, deputy deacon, doing basic weapons processing, seal law apprentices are with Sun Changle, deputy deacon, learning formations, but it didn't take long to be sent to do some idle things, refining tools are making molds, and printing laws are going to repair Tongtian Pillar. ”
