Chapter 20: Chaos is imminent
Before the carriage entered the palace, it stopped at the door of a small medical hall, and the three got out of the carriage with the little beggar in his arms, and the carriage drove into the palace.
If the guards on the streets are already airtight, then the guards in the palace are even more meticulous, with five steps and one sentry, and ten steps and one post, Chen Yin observed very cautiously and did not dare to be negligent at all. The carriage drove to an arch outside, the door was written 'Xiyuan', the source stream led Chen Yin along a stone road to go inside, the grass on both sides was flourishing, through the garden, a three-storey vermilion building towered not far away, the top of the building was hung with a black character and a white bottom plaque, there were three big characters on the book, and a marble railing step meandered up to the Imperial Pavilion, which was estimated to have about 100 steps.
"Brother Chen, rest here for a while, and wait for me to go in and make a report. After speaking, Yuanxi ran up the stairs.
Chen Yin looked around, and found that there was no garrison or ambush here, compared to the outside, it was simply a paradise, he waited for a moment below, a palace maid came to lead him into the pavilion, the two passed through the lobby, into the backyard, a pool of blue waves imprinted into Chen Yin's eyes, the leaves in the pool are in full bloom, a corridor stands on the water directly to the pavilion in the center of the pool, three people in the pavilion, one is the source of the stream, standing on the side, the other two are sitting face to face, the game is in full swing.
"Childe, please. After speaking, the palace maid bowed her head and retreated.
Chen Yin walked to the heart of the pavilion, Yuan Xi made a gesture to ask Chen Yin not to speak, and the two of them were in their forties, one was in his thirties, both of them were focused on the situation in chess, the younger one was the head of the Moon Storm, and the other was Wen Zuyu, the head of the Imperial Pavilion.
"Division... Master. How could Chen Yin wait any longer, his mind was now full of questions that needed to be solved urgently.
"What's the matter, you still have a trip to the capital?" Yue Fengfeng took a step and smiled at Wen Zuyu.
Chen Yin also glanced at Wen Zuyu, this person's aura was even and quiet, and there was no murderous aura between his eyebrows.
"There's... Some Chengshan sent disciples to the Dinghua faction to report that the heads of the ten factions in the four directions were imprisoned in the capital..."Chen Yin said.
Wen Zuyu was about to fall into place, when he heard this, he looked up at Chen Yin: "Where is this person now?"
"It's dead. ”
Yue Feng's expression became serious, and he asked unhurriedly, "How did Shangguan Ruoxin deal with it?"
"I sent ten people from the Rapid Huitang to Shangjing to understand the situation, and I went down the mountain first, so I arrived at them first. ”
"Where did the Quartet and Ten Factions come from," Yue Storm stood up, "This time it's just me who went to Beijing with the two heads of the Southern Sect, and they have all returned to the faction, so I've just stayed here for a while longer." ”
"That's what the person who came to report said..."
"It's a trick," Wen Zuyu put the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard and asked tepidly, "The Dinghua faction only sent ten people from the Jihui Hall out of the mountain, did the hall masters and the senior brothers and sisters of the hall leave the mountain?"
"There are only ten people in the Radiance Hall, and the rest are all left in the faction. Chen Yin replied.
Wen Zuyu looked at Yue Swift Wind: "Be cautious, Shangguan Ruoxin seems to be more suitable for the position of head than you." ”
"Uncle Wen, I have to go back immediately-"
"Report-" The herald shouted all the way into the backyard, "Lord Wen, the emperor sent you to the imperial study, and the emperor said that if the head of the Dinghua faction is also there, I hope to go together." ”
"Do you know what's going on?" asked Wen Zuyu.
"It's the infighting of the Western faction, and the Bifengmen has defeated the Tianchi faction. ”
"Why did the Western Faction suddenly fight..."Yue Swift Wind suddenly realized, "Yin, you quickly go to the city gate to stop the people of the Swift Hall and let them return to the mountain immediately." ”
"Yuanxi, you go too," Wen Zuyu's whole person seemed to have changed, "The old man has waited for so long, they finally started!"
**
"Brother Yuanxi, I have to go back to the old dead tree first," Chen Yin still didn't know anything about the current situation, "I have to inform Yingli of the situation first." ”
Yuanxi nodded: "It's okay." ”
"By the way, can those two soul jades be recovered?" Chen Yin asked.
"No, as soon as I returned to the capital, I received a letter from Zhuo Baixu, saying that he was going to take the remaining three soul jades and the emperor's ...... within three months" Yuan Xi pointed to his head, "The emperor imposed martial law in the capital just in case." ”
The carriage had arrived at the 'Old Withered Tree' Inn, Chen Yin jumped out of the car and turned back to Yuanxi and said, "Brother Yuanxi can go out of the city first and wait, and then you need to clean up for a while, and meet outside the city." ”
"Okay, I'll go to the city gate first to wait for Brother Chen's senior brothers and sisters. ”
As soon as Chen Yin entered the inn, Xiao Er stepped forward: "Guest officer, the girl who came with you went out to look for you, she asked me to tell you, if you come back first, I will wait for her in the inn." ”
"She hasn't come back yet?"
"Nope. ”
"There is still work to be done, and if the girl returns, please let her come to the north gate. After Chen Yin finished speaking, he didn't enter the room, and hurried out of the inn.
After walking for a while, he saw that the people at the gate were all pouring in, and someone shouted, "It's fighting!
Then there was a loud noise outside the city gate, and the crowd panicked even more, and Chen Yin stepped up his steps and tried to swim upstream.
"The gates of the city are closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. Several officers and soldiers guarded the door nervously, not allowing anyone to go out.
"What's going on out there?" Chen Yin asked.
"None of your business, stand back. ”
"Lord Yuanxi of the Imperial Pavilion is outside the door," Chen Yin hurriedly explained, "He called him down." ”
"Who... Whoever called you here will not be able to go out for a while. "The officers and soldiers did not hesitate.
Chen Yin had no choice but to withdraw, and quietly climbed up the city wall along the stairs next to him, the outside was extremely chaotic, and he recognized Chen Mo Ling at a glance, he did not draw his sword, but attacked and defended with the officers and soldiers with his bare hands, Yuan Xi was fighting with a bald head, it can be seen that Yuan Xi was letting the other party in every move, and his mouth was still talking, a woman in red with a ponytail went around behind Yuan Xi, a red silk stretched out from his sleeve, the matter was urgent, Yuan Xi completely subconsciously controlled his body, parried the attack of the bald head with his left hand, turned around and kicked the woman away, the force was more ruthless, Chen Mo Ling saw this scene, pulled out his sword and flew towards Yuan Xi with one foot, Because the body lost its balance due to the turn just now, the bald man took advantage of the situation to press it down, Yuanxi was pressed to the ground and couldn't move, and his body quickly emitted a golden dazzling light, Chen Yin saw that the situation was not good, and he couldn't care so much, so he jumped directly from the wall: "Senior brother, stay under the sword." ”
Mo Ling heard Chen Yin's voice, a hesitation, but the momentum was out, it was too late to eliminate the force on the wooden sword, Chen Yin's eyes saw this, his heart tightened, a force surged all over his body, and there was a black silence in front of him, and he was already between the source stream and the Mo Ling wooden sword, one hand tightly grasped Mo Ling's wooden sword, and the other hand blocked the flash emitted by the source stream, the momentum was deafening, and the people who were fighting next to him all stopped and looked at this side in horror.
"What kind of person... He actually blocked the 'white lizard' of Lord Yuanxi with one hand..."The officers and soldiers all whispered.
"He actually blocked the strength of the two of them by himself...... "The people of the Dinghua faction were also surprised.
Not to mention the onlookers, even Chen Moling and Yuan Xi were scared.
"Senior Brother Chen..."Chen Moling found that the aura emanating from Senior Brother Chen was very unfamiliar.
Yuan Xi and Chen Mo Ling dissipated their strength, and Chen Yin still knelt on one knee with his head bowed and remained motionless.
"Chen Yin, you fool!" The city heard that there was a sudden sound outside, and slowly opened the city gate, Qi Yingli ran out in a hurry, grabbed Chen Yin's hand, and said angrily, "You don't want to die-" Before she finished speaking, Qi Yingli was so frightened that she hurriedly withdrew her hand, this person's aura and Chen Yin were like two people, and the derivative power in the body had reached the realm of ten desolations, "You... Who is it..."
Chen Yin stood up, didn't speak, and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in the blink of an eye.
Everyone looked at each other.
Yuanxi hurriedly stood up and patted the soil on his body, and shouted: "It's all your own people, all the soldiers defending the city put down their weapons! Go and find Brother Chen with a few people!"
The soldiers hesitantly followed the order.
"What tricks are you going to play?" asked Gong Shuangting.
"The head of the moon is talking to the emperor in the imperial study, and he was not imprisoned, this is an ulterior motive - and then, I want to know how you fought just now-"
Gong Shuangting and Yuan Xi were negotiating, and Chen Moling looked at his sword, put it in the sheath, and waited anxiously for Qi Yingli to find Chen Yin.
Qi Yingli closed her eyes at the moment, trying to feel the power left in Chen Yin's body just now, "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up." "She's angry and anxious... The angry thing is that Chen Yin is in danger alone, why is it that the person just now is obviously Chen Yin, but he exudes a completely unfamiliar aura, and finally disappears out of thin air. Qi Yingli's desire to find Chen Yin became stronger and stronger, so strong that there were no longer any distracting thoughts, her mind was dark, and suddenly a firelight appeared, active and bright.
"Found it! in the city!" Qi Yingli broke through Wanzong, but she didn't have the heart to be happy about it, she turned around and ran into the city, followed by Chen Moling.
