Chapter 853: Power Strife
Chapter 853: Power Strife
There was a silent silence on either side of us.
The atmosphere was stalemate for a long time, and after all, it was Zhang Lao and Uncle Hua who couldn't hold back and surrendered. Zhang Lao looked at me helplessly, stretched out his hand and nodded at my forehead, I could feel his depression in the manor, and immediately hooked his lips and smiled.
"Hey, since you've got in touch with the Ten Halls of Yama, why don't you say it?" I guessed one or two when I saw Zhang Lao's appearance, and of course blurted out directly at this time, but Lian Chen and Zhang Xu were slightly surprised, and the surprise on their faces flashed.
Although it is a little unkind, I still can't help but wonder why Zhang Lao and Uncle Hua did this, after all, this is not a trivial matter, it can be said that it is also a major event that can ultimately determine the balance of the two worlds of yin and yang, why keep it secret, this is what I really care about.
“...... It's not that simple. You must know that there are ten halls of Hades in the ghost world who are greedy for power and delusional to ascend to the sky in one step, then there will be the same people in the yang world who calculate the benefits. Don't get involved in this, it's our old bones. ”
Zhang Lao was forced by my aggressive gaze, and waited for me angrily after speaking.
However, I was shocked by what he mentioned, "The situation is so difficult now, those guys still don't let go of those selfish desires??"
At this time, as long as the king of the ten halls of Yama comes to the yang world, we almost have no way to deal with him, although the biggest thing we can still rely on is that the king of Yama does not have the courage to touch the rules of heaven and earth for the time being, but we can't be 100% guaranteed that the king of Yama is not playing tricks.
Originally, I didn't have any thoughts about the government of the Great Xia Kingdom, but seeing that the Yang Realm was in a critical stage, I didn't come out to appease people's hearts, and I was still using my little brains, how should those of us who are desperate for it deal with ourselves?
Not to mention those companions who died trying to fend off the ravages of evil spirits.
When I think of Mu Ling, my heart is a twitching pain, this is the first partner who died in front of my eyes, and the first to die because of me.
Even though I've accepted the facts, I still don't want this to happen again.
Even Chen was a little dissatisfied when he thought about it, "What Zhang Lao said is not right, we are the main force this time, and we should know the whole story." If you say so, can I think that it is precisely because you have to make some small moves with the government that will make Zhang Yan and others rush to the northwest region, outside the center of power?"
It's really a word to wake up the dreamer.
I was touched by Lian Chen's words, and thought carefully about how these old guys really had to get together from time to time to say something when I was in the manor, but at that time I had a lot of tasks, and the injuries on my body were not all healed, so I didn't have too much energy to study these.
Now that Lian Chen spit it out all in one breath, I have the illusion of waking up from a dream, and I don't know when I became a pawn in their power struggle.
Once this thought appeared, it was irrepressible, and I could feel the fluctuations in my body gradually becoming more and more violent, and the utensils placed around me trembled slightly with the fluctuations overflowing from my body, and Zhang Xu, who felt that something was wrong, stepped forward and pressed my shoulder.
"Calm down, control yourself, and don't get carried away by power. "The force on Zhang Xu's hand is very strong, and I can hear the "creaking" sound of the bones.
"Well, I know, it's fine. ”
Holding back the force that was about to burst out of my body, I knew that my face must not look good now. Maybe I'll have to learn how to use power.
I could see that Zhang Lao and Uncle Hua on the other side of the contact formation were also full of nervousness, and their hearts suddenly warmed, and those dissatisfaction just now dissipated.
The power that faintly showed signs of riot on his body gradually calmed down.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief, tugged at the corners of my mouth and smiled, "I'm fine, I'm fine." Zhang Lao obviously didn't believe it, and babbled for a long time before he stopped talking, and he was about to cut off the contact formation in a hurry.
Tsk, I actually wanted to change the topic, I raised my eyebrows, Zhang Lao immediately turned his face away and stopped looking at me, but Uncle Hua was very calm, staring at me directly, and told me to be careful about my body.
But to his regret, I don't eat this set.
"So, how did you get in touch with the Ten Palaces Hades, and what are you talking about now?"
I think the so-called negotiations between these two guys are more with the people sent by the government, but I don't know what the strength of those people is.
Originally, most of those little Taoist priests who were born in Maoshan and considered themselves orthodox took refuge in the arms of the Great Xia Kingdom, how to say that the captive ones are happier than the free-range ones.
Don't worry about food and clothing, don't worry about resources, where like us, you have to find resources everywhere to buy shoes and seals.
I saw Uncle Hua's somewhat embarrassed expression and snorted coldly with disdain, which of these old guys is not the most disgusted with those captive guys, now it's good, start working together, and skip us.
Perhaps except for a few patriarchs of the four major families, the others are still in the dark.
"Actually, I haven't been contacted, but now I know how to get in touch, and I still have to wait for the ten halls of Hades to respond to the signal we send. ”
Uncle Hua tentatively looked at Zhang Lao, and saw that the other party had a broken and broken face, so he said these things like pouring beans.
I, Lian Chen, and Zhang Xu glanced at each other and listened seriously.
It turned out that after Zhang Lao and the others killed an evil spirit for the first time, they were found by the people of the Great Xia State government.
The demands of those people are quite simple, to provide us with all kinds of resources indefinitely, and to finish up the mess we left behind, etc., but we want to help them establish contact with the underworld, that is, we focus on force, and they focus on literature.
"Those fools, don't you still think that the Ten Halls of Hades can make sense?ha, as long as we don't perish in the Yang Realm, he won't stop," I sneered, and tried those guys even more.
It's just a no-brainer.
Hades's purpose is particularly obvious, it is what he wants to subvert this world in one go, and the rest will not care.
I have experienced him directly face to face, and that kind of bloodthirsty and ruthless eyes are definitely not something that can be dismissed in a few words.
"But what they mean is to wait for the Ten Halls of Hades to respond and discuss it well, and maybe they can divide a small piece of desolate territory for Hades......"
Zhang Lao hesitated, but still said this sentence weakly, as soon as this statement came out, not only me, but Lian Chen and Zhang Xu were also angry, especially Zhang Xu, who was not very good-tempered, directly picked up the vase at hand and fell over, penetrating the contact circle and smashing it on the ground, falling to pieces.
“...... The vase used by the emperor of the Qing Dynasty was just dug up from the tomb last month......"
Lian Chen said coldly behind him, I couldn't help but tremble when I heard it, and silently lit a candle for Zhang Xu, the young man died early and was born early.
"Lian Chen, did you take someone to rob the tomb?!" Zhang Lao blew his beard and glared, shaking his hand and pointing at Lian Chen, who was steaming cold.
“...... No, picked up, it's not worth much. As soon as the cold air was put away, Lian Chen said with a smile, glancing at Zhang Xu's cold knife from time to time to express the unhappiness in her heart at this time.
"I heard you say that you dug ......" Zhang Lao was extremely persistent, his face was congested with blood, red and red, and those who didn't know thought that he had a ruddy complexion and good health, but in fact, he was angry.
"I lied to Zhang Xu, and I picked it up. ”
Lian Chen's face remained unchanged, and he didn't let go. The two of them were immediately separated by the contact formation, and I could see Uncle Hua on the other side pursing his lips and trying to contain it, presumably he would slap Zhang Lao on the door as soon as he relaxed.
Chattering or something, Uncle Hua can't stand it anymore, he can't beat Lian Chen, he can still teach Zhang Lao a small lesson.
I pinched a sweat for Zhang Lao, and was just about to open my mouth to divert the topic, when Lian Chen and Zhang Lao pinched up again. Just because Zhang Lao didn't give up, he swept the entire conference room and saw a few things that looked like antiques.
Okay, Zhang Xu and I have completely become bystanders, and Uncle Hua and I are strongly watching the boring conversation between these two old and young.
The corners of my eyes twitched, turned my gaze to Uncle Hua, and said seriously, "Do you really want to cooperate with the people of the Great Xia Kingdom?" You must know that the king of Hades is not easy to get along with, he is very insidious, and he may stab him at any time, besides, I can't believe this guy's words." ”
"Hmph, do you think I'm willing?! These guys who think they are superior have monopolized the entire Taoist market, and if it weren't for the consent of these people, it would be a question whether you could buy the talisman seal in your hand. Tsk, do you really think Lao Tzu and those old guys are on the same path? Hmph, ignorant. ”
Uncle Hua seemed to have accumulated a lot of anger, and he said it cracklingly, and his voice even changed to Zhang Lao, who was arguing with Lian Chen, and immediately the two of them closed up together with a tacit understanding, and they didn't pinch it again until Uncle Hua finished speaking.
And I was a little incredulous.
Originally, in the yang world, most people just don't believe in ghosts and gods, and basically do it in secret, no Taoist priest will put this kind of thing on the table, after all, there are still very few people who believe in these.
But obviously I was too simple, I didn't expect that the Great Xia Kingdom would unknowingly master so many resources, and even be able to affect the materials in our hands.
"This kind of method is really bad for these people to be able to do it," Zhang Xu said dissatisfiedly, with a hint of gloom between his eyebrows, "Sooner or later, one day we will all die in their hands." ”
He was right, it would have been an unwise choice to talk to the Ten Palaces Hades, didn't they know that it was most likely a move by the Hades to stall for time?
No wonder there are a lot of little ghosts outside recently, it turns out that the king of Hades took advantage of the time when our actions were suspended, but those fools couldn't see the situation clearly, and they also wanted to restrain the ten halls of Hades with their own strength, could it be that the other nine Hades were imprisoned would be fake?
Stupid.
I sneered, stared straight into Zhang Lao's eyes, and said seriously, "Zhang Lao, we know best in our hearts what the methods of the Hades are, have you forgotten the death of the wood spirit?"
