Silkworm in the Cage Chapter 84 Silent Night, Tea Drinker

Xu Hexian held a sword in his hand and slowly walked towards Qi Xiaoran.

Every step counts.

Every step seemed to hit Qi Xiaoran's heart, making his face suddenly pale.

Xu Hexian...... You're really a devil!"

Qi Xiaoran was very helpless.

He thought that he had the strength to fight Xu Hexian, and even had a high chance of killing Xu Hexian.

But after the actual fight, I realized how ridiculous this idea is.

Xu Hexian's terrible is not only his ruthless style of doing things, but more important is the sword in his hand.

To be able to sit in the position of the head of the Xuanzheng Division, and to sit so steadily, strength and ruthlessness are indispensable.

Xu Hexian stood ten paces away.

With his head down, he looked at the ground beneath his feet, not knowing what he was thinking.

He suddenly raised his head and said indifferently: "I think you are a very stupid guy, not only self-righteous, but also short-sighted. It was a very wrong decision to hand over the control of the Water Mirror Division to you. Maybe when you were younger, you were very suitable for this position, but as you get older, your skills become smaller and smaller, and even your ideas have problems. ”

Qi Xiaoran said hatefully: "What do you want to say?"

Xu Hexian smiled and said, "Why did you choose King Yu?"

Qi Xiaoran was stunned for a moment, and said angrily: "Don't you want to humiliate me here?

Xu Hexian shook his head and said: "King Yu is destined to be impossible, you can't even understand this kind of thing, it's not Your Majesty, nor King Yu who buried you, let alone me, but yourself." ”

Qi Xiaoran clenched his teeth and said: "I have always heard that Xu Hexian and Xu Sishou like to torture others the most, but they are also people who like to talk nonsense? ”

Xu Hexian was silent for a while, and said: "You still don't understand after all, someone should have looked for you back then, right? But you made a choice, and since you made that choice, your fate has been doomed." ”

Qi Xiaoran's expression was slightly different.

He thought secretly for a moment, suddenly looked up, and looked at Xu Hexian in surprise.

Xu Hexian smiled slightly and said, "It seems that you understand, I know that you are a smart person, but you just made a wrong choice for a while, but in anything in the world, it is difficult to find a chance to make a new choice." ”

......

The moon crept into the clouds.

The entire capital is silent.

The noise in Qi's mansion gradually subsided.

Many men dressed in black walked out of the gate, blood dripping from their swords.

Jian Shuxuan stood behind Xu Hexian.

"I didn't find Qi Xiaoran. ”

Xu Hexian nodded and said, "I have already killed him." ”

Jian Shuxuan frowned slightly and said, "The master beside Qi Xiaoran is also dead. ”

Xu Hexian looked back at him and said with a smile: "Good job." ”

He reached out and patted Jian Shuxuan's shoulder and said, "It's just a cultivator who has no lower realm, and you have spent a bit of time. ”

Jian Shuxuan's face changed slightly, he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said in a trembling voice: "Child...... The child will definitely ...... next time."

Xu Hexian grabbed Jian Shuxuan's arm, gently helped him up, and said, "What are you doing, I don't blame you, I am your father-in-law, you are my son, and the entire Xuanzheng Division will rely on you in the future." Fatherhood just wants you to remember that time is precious, and to waste time on unnecessary things is to waste your own life. ”

Jian Shuxuan lowered his head and said, "The child remembers." ”

Xu Hexian smiled: "That's the best." You did a good job this time, go back and rest well, don't slack off in your cultivation, after all, you are the pride of my Xuanzheng Division. ”

Jian Shuxuan still lowered his head, unable to see his expression, but his body was still trembling slightly.

......

The winter night was extremely cold, and when Li Mengzhou opened his eyes from the meditation, he felt a little stiff.

Although he has already broken through to the realm of Chengyi, in fact, he has not really been in contact with cultivation for a long time, and many things are still in the learning stage.

When a practitioner is generally contemplating, it is difficult for the outside cold wind to enter the body, because the aura of heaven and earth will present a protective effect, but if you ignore this, when you sit in the cold wind for a long time, when you return to your senses, you will indeed feel uncomfortable, and your whole body will be frozen.

It takes time to cultivate the Natal Sword.

But in just a few hours, Li Mengzhou had already communicated the sword intent of the natal sword.

Even if it is only a preliminary stage, it will take a lot of time to be able to command the natal sword like an arm, but this is enough to shock the sword cultivation.

Li Mengzhou tried to drive the natal sword to the extreme, but he only let the sword hang a few inches off the ground, and it lost control in a few breaths.

The so-called natal sword is a kind of run-in between the sword and the master, and if you want to reach the run-in period casually, it is equivalent to a fantasy.

Just like a scholar reads, it takes time to read, and it takes time to win the top of the imperial examination, no one can know a few words, and he can look down on all the scholars in the world.

Yunyang Natal Sword was not in a hurry, Li Mengzhou thought about King Yu's attempt to kill him, and his eyes were filled with coldness.

Although Qingyi told him to just wait in Chaosi Lane, he still walked out of Chaosi Lane.

He still held the black sword in his hand.

Before the natal sword was completely cultivated, Li Mengzhou didn't want to let this sword come out too early.

And the natal sword can be stored in the dantian qi sea, and you can kill the enemy when you need it, and hide it when you don't need it.

Failing to do this, it is difficult to guarantee that this sword will not be recognized by some people by appearing in front of the world prematurely.

Li Mengzhou suspected that when he first arrived in the capital, someone should have recognized this sword, and the one he suspected the most was the head of the Heavenly Academy, Jiang Tingyu.

Because he always felt that Jiang Tingyu's reason for wooing him was not sufficient.

Perhaps there is some hidden secret.

This made Li Mengzhou unable to fully trust Jiang Tingyu.

But so far, Jiang Tingyu has helped him a lot, and it doesn't look like an enemy.

He could only bury this thought in his heart for the time being, and be careful every step of the way.

When he walked out of Chaosi Lane, Li Mengzhou faintly smelled a trace of fish.

He knew exactly what it was.

He didn't stop, and walked straight out of the city.

......

In the middle of the night, it was already two quarters.

There was a touch of silver in the dark night sky, and the stars were dim.

On the official road out of the south city gate, there is a carriage and more than a dozen horses galloping.

The official road outside the south city gate is still far away from the palace mountain gate, and the direction is deviated, which is the main road to enter the capital of Jiang Kingdom.

In the carriage, King Yu slowly opened his eyes, he looked at the strategist sitting opposite, cleared his throat, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "The process of leaving the city is a little easy, is there a problem?"

The strategist said softly: "It is more than ten miles away from the capital, even if there are people chasing after it, it should be too late. What happened in front of the gate of Ligong Mountain, after all, not everyone knows about it, we made a disguise and were able to easily get out of the city, there may indeed be some problems, but we can only hope that there are no problems. ”

King Yu's palms resting on his knees were clenched into fists, and he sighed slightly: "So there is still a problem, if the Xuanzheng Division and the Heavenly Council come to chase, with their footsteps, they may not be able to catch up." ”

The strategist naturally knew this, but he could only try his best to comfort King Yu and said: "Unless the head of the second division comes in person, we still have a chance to escape, although Bai Yuanshan is dead, but many of these guards are at the peak of the Cheng Dynasty, as long as they don't encounter too difficult opponents, it is enough to help His Highness get out of danger." ”

King Yu said coldly: "I'm afraid that Jiang Tingyu and Xu Hexian will chase after me personally." Although I haven't had much contact with Jiang Tingyu, there are many rumors about him in the world, and some people are even sure that Jiang Tingyu is the strongest in the Five Realms. ”

Regarding Jiang Tingyu's strength, if you believe it, you will have it, and if you don't believe it, you will not have it.

After all, Jiang Tingyu has not drawn his sword for many years, and no one can accurately find out how strong Jiang Tingyu is.

There are rumors in the world that Jiang Tingyu is the strongest in the Five Realms, but there are also rumors that Jiang Tingyu was seriously injured and withdrew from the rivers and lakes before he appeared in the court, and he has long lost his former strength.

But which rumor is more credible, King Yu is not clear.

In his position, of course, he would prefer the latter.

But the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and Jiang Tingyu is still a terrible character even if he is really not at his peak.

It was difficult for these dozen or so guards of the Cheng Realm to be able to resist Jiang Tingyu's sword.

King Yu just felt a little afraid.

The strategist said with a slight expression: "Although Jiang Tingyu is the head of the Heavenly Council, since the rumors in the rivers and lakes, no one in the capital has seen him draw a sword, maybe there is something clumsy, or maybe there is another hidden situation, if it is rumored that Jiang Tingyu retired because he was seriously injured in the face of an invincible strong man, then even if Jiang Tingyu came in person, we still have the strength to fight."

The Heavenly Council has always been mysterious, except for Jiang Tingyu, that is, that Qing is on the bright side, but that Qing Yi is a strong man in the realm of Wuzhang, if the master of the Heavenly Council is exhausted, I am afraid that we can only let it go, and we will not surrender obediently. ”

When he said this, the strategist himself felt a little unconfident.

The more mysterious the enemy, the less it is possible to speculate on hearsay alone.

Even if Jiang Tingyu may really not be as strong as before, I am afraid that it will be difficult to meet an opponent under the Five Realms, so no matter which rumor about Jiang Tingyu is true, as long as Jiang Tingyu really appears, it will be a great danger.

King Yu's gaze fell on the scenery that passed quickly outside the car curtain, don't say that the strategist is not confident, even if he doesn't sound confident, after all, Jiang Tingyu's rumors are too loud, it is difficult not to let people think about the worst.

In the silence of the night, there was the sound of breaking through the sky.

The sound of the horses' hooves disturbing the peace.

King Yu looked back in horror, but there was no one behind him.

As if aware of this, he turned around, only to find that someone had been waiting for a long time in front of the carriage.

A simple tea shed appeared on the side of the road, and a man in a white robe was sitting under the shed, quietly drinking tea.

Around the tea shed were all masked people in green clothes, all of whom had swords in their hands, blocking the way in an orderly manner.

King Yu clearly saw a figure standing in the tea shed.

It's the Qingyi he's seen.

And those who can sit and drink tea in front of Qingyi are probably only one identity.

"Is it really Jiang Tingyu!?"

......

When you look up, you can't see the stars, only the moon.

Li Mengzhou felt that today's night was not very good.

With his current cultivation in the lower realm, his feet are naturally extremely fast.

By the time we arrived at the tea shed more than ten miles outside the city, the battle here was over.

The guards belonging to King Yu lay on the ground.

The counselor fell to his knees, his head bowed.

King Yu sat in the carriage, his chubby cheeks trembled slightly, and cold sweat couldn't stop dripping down.

Jiang Tingyu silently put down the tea bowl in his hand, even if the tea was hot, it was extremely cold in this ice and snow.

"The king of honor will be personally sent by His Majesty, and the rest will be ambushed. ”

Qing Yi frowned, looked at Li Mengzhou, who was walking alone, and said in a deep voice, "Why did you come?"

Li Mengzhou glanced at His Royal Highness King Yu, who was trembling in the carriage, and said softly: "Because someone wants to kill me, I will take revenge." ”

Qing Yi raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "King Yu is the prince of Jiang Kingdom, even if there is evidence of rebellion, his life and death will be decided by His Majesty." Li Mengzhou thought for a while and said, "Anyway, in the end, they will die, and whoever kills them will be the same." ”

Qingyi was silent.

"You want to kill him?"

Jiang Tingyu slowly stood up, put his hands in front of him, and said lightly.

Li Mengzhou said: "I brought the sword. ”

Jiang Tingyu smiled slightly, and said: "You are not small, you dared to kill Zhang Chong of the military department when you were not traveling, and now you want to kill Your Majesty's younger brother, the prince of Jiang State." ”

Li Mengzhou smiled: "Maybe before today, he was the prince, but now he is not." ”

Jiang Tingyu said: "He is still the prince of Jiang Kingdom, before His Majesty did not kill him, he has always been, if you want to kill him, it will be very troublesome." Because you're robbing your majesty of people. ”

Li Mengzhou said: "Maybe the world can understand that I am the sword in the hands of His Majesty. ”

Jiang Tingyu shook his head and said: "You will be reasonable, things are not as simple as you think, King Yu is not killed if you want to, even if he is destined to die, you are not qualified to kill him." ”

Li Mengzhou pondered seriously for a moment and said, "How long can he live?"

Jiang Tingyu said very simply: "Probably tomorrow." ”

Li Mengzhou frowned and said, "There is still some time before dawn, and there may be changes in the middle." ”

Jiang Tingyu said calmly: "The damned people are already dead, as for the army under King Yu, naturally there are people to deal with it, no one can save him, and no one is willing to save him." ”

Li Mengzhou fell silent.

He didn't have to kill King Yu with his own hands, since His Majesty the Emperor had other arrangements, and King Yu didn't live until tomorrow, he didn't need to do it again, for fear of provoking many people's dislike.

Jiang Tingyu looked at the young man silently, and said softly: "You have broken into the realm of Chengyi, and you are considered a small achievement in the younger generation, but you are far from reaching the peak, you should focus on cultivation, and some unnecessary things should not be involved, it will not be good for you." ”

Li Mengzhou didn't say anything more, waved his hands and saluted, and turned around to leave.

King Yu in the carriage looked at the departing young man, and wanted to say something, but he couldn't say it anyway.

He sat down dejectedly, his face ashen.

......

A lot of things happened in the capital, and a lot of people died.

The evidence of King Yu's guilt was enumerated one by one.

At noon the next day, he was beheaded in front of the people of the city.

Maybe the image of King Yu is still very kind in the eyes of the people, but once they are stained, they are the same enemy, no one will sympathize with him, and some are only a few people who sigh in their hearts.

Soon after, there was some commotion in the court.

The guards outside the hall clearly heard the angry scolding of His Majesty the Emperor in the hall.

All the ministers were silent.

It is worth mentioning that due to the subordination of Qi Xiaoran, the head of the Water Mirror Division, there was a vacancy in the position of the head of the department, and according to Jiang Tingyu's recommendation, it was replaced by a person named Fan Wuwei, who was far away from the court and was not qualified to go to the court.

This matter naturally attracted some discussion in the court, but in the end, His Majesty the Emperor knocked on the board, and the matter was over.

And Fan Wuwei jumped from a petty official to the head of the Water Mirror Division.

According to rumors, this Fan Wuwei is a great monk who has entered the realm of Wuzhang.

Although there is a big gap with the strength of the heads of the divisions, the sudden appearance of a great cultivator of the Void Realm has also attracted a lot of speculation.

Fan Wuwei's name also spread among the powerful people in a short period of time.

......

Fan Wuwei, who was far away in Jinzhou and managed a county, also quickly got the will to enter the capital.

This will undoubtedly brought a great shock to Fan Wuwei.

He was flattered, but more than that, he was happy.

With his current position, he is a world away from the head of the Water Mirror Division, which can be described as a blue sky.

The people who came to visit the audience after receiving the news stepped through the threshold of Fan's mansion.

But Fan Wuwei refused to meet the guests, which inevitably made people sarcastic about the villain's ambition.

And Fan Wuwei went his own way, didn't mind the judgment of unexpected people, packed up, and set off for the capital with his family.

He stood in front of the carriage, looking back at his homeland, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

Fan Wuwei's appearance is mediocre, and he even has no temperament at all, just like his name.

But who would have thought that such a little person who could not be found on the street without a reputation suddenly received the favor of His Majesty and became a man in a blink of an eye.

It stands to reason that Fan Wuwei's cultivation to the realm of Wuzhang should not be so unknown, but if you are interested in exploring it, it is easy to get Fan Wuwei's past experience.

When he was young, Fan Wuwei did break into the fame, and it was even faintly related to a certain forbidden thing in Jiang Guo.

Fan is tasteless and talented, but not obvious.

Xu did it deliberately.

And now, the court needs Fan Wuwei, so Fan Wuwei's ability will come into play.

He knew very well what he would face when he entered the capital this time.

But his face was full of smiles.

I couldn't help but laugh wildly.

Those servants of the Fan Mansion all looked at their master very indifferently, as if such a scene had long been strange.

There were even some servants who were still whispering: "The old man's laughter is really ugly." ”

"It's good to get used to it. ”

There is an older man, a domestic servant who has lived in the Fan Mansion for many years, and said very seriously: "The master is not good-looking, the laughter is also very ugly, the amount of food is large, and the popularity is not good, but in addition, the master is an excellent person, well, excellent." ”
