Chapter 6 Under the Night, Blood Lotus
The night was slightly cold, Xiao Mingyang tightened his sleeves, and looked at the Surabaya room in the distance with some excitement.
The Luo River is the widest river in heaven and earth, and it seems that the three major empires have been penetrated by the Luo River, and the huge river runs through all directions, and most of the farmland of the Great Qin Empire is irrigated by it.
The huge Luo River has countless tributaries within the territory of Great Qin, and the huge number of tributaries supports the empire's large population.
Danyang Surabaya, is a tributary of the Luo River, called the Surabaya River, the river is not more than 20 meters wide, and the two sides of the river gradually gather a habitat with the river, this side is the Danyang Surabaya.
Over the years, too many people have gathered on both sides of the strait, and people from different places and different occupations have gathered in this place, and the high and low buildings make this place look extraordinarily prosperous, and the lights are bright when the night falls. There is a legend in Danyang that you can get anything you want in Surabaya, as long as you pay the price, even the treasures that are difficult in the cultivation world will be available here.
Therefore, many businesses here are not legal, and they are all hidden under the laws of Great Qin, like dragons in the night.
It's just that in Danyang County, such a place hidden under the laws of Great Qin, why can it exist for a long time, you must know that the merchants of the empire are very disgusted with such things, and there is a man in the merchant who is the imperial master, ranking among the first products of the dynasty, in the eyes of such a big man, the existence of Danyang Surabaya is undoubtedly a challenge to his sight.
At this moment, a young man passing by had such doubts, he had seen the merchant man himself, he knew what kind of person it was, and it was because he knew that it was even more difficult for him to understand.
He carried a wooden box on his back, which seemed to be a little old, with mottled marks on it, and a dark robe. The wooden box behind him was a bit big, so he was a step behind.
The man in front of him was a very ordinary man, dressed as a scholar, but he did not have any memorable features, and it seemed that no one would ever notice him when he walked in the crowd.
Looking at the tall buildings in Surabaya, the young man behind him finally asked the doubts in his heart, and frowned: "Second Senior Brother, how dare Danyang have such a place?"
The young man dressed as a scholar said coldly: "Such a place naturally can only exist with the permission of a few people who are rare in Great Qin. ”
"Those illegal transactions, the treasures from all over the empire, the rare treasures that can help the cultivation, can bring amazing profits, and such amazing profits can make too many people who don't want to die bring a steady stream of things. ”
"Over the years, Surabaya has created a fortune for Danyang that shocked the empire, so those big people above the temple naturally turned a blind eye, after all, for them, there will be things they need here, and there will almost always be a shadow behind those who can gain a foothold here. ”
"And the rules that have been left behind for so many years have made this place safe, and no one dares to mess around in Surabaya, otherwise he will be greeted by death. ”
The young man behind him was still puzzled, and said softly, "How could that man agree?"
"That's because the empire needs it, and it's the prime minister who is nodding behind the back of Surabaya, and Shenwei Hou is also in Danyang City, so what can he do if the two big men nod their heads?"
"But I don't believe he's going to compromise after all?"
Naturally, he would not compromise, because such a place is what he nods at. ”
As if somewhat shocked by the scholar's man's words, the young man frowned and stopped talking.
"When some interests can already affect the operation of the entire empire, what can even be done if he is the imperial master, he is not the emperor of Qin after all, and he can decide the affairs of the world with one word. ”
"It's for these reasons that I came here to see, and of course the most important thing is because this is our former imperial capital. ”
Xiao Mingyang walked into Surabaya without hurry, but now he is thirty-three years old, but he is just an ordinary official, he does not have any fame in Danyang City, there can be no military exploits and rewards here, and he also knows that he may be like this in his life.
But he never imagined that the fate of the world would have such a change. He had been given a secret, a secret that would make him rise to prominence, a secret that was like his treasure, and he hid it in a different place, because he knew that sometimes he knew too much, and maybe it was not a treasure that would bring him, but a talisman.
Xiao Mingyang is very cautious, he knows that only by being cautious can he live longer, and he still has to live long enough in powerful power and interests, as long as he lives long enough, he can experience the beauty of this world.
In fact, he was already very satisfied with the status quo, and he was already very pleased to be able to have the talent to become a cultivator. But now he has learned a secret, and if such a secret is used well, it can bring him too many benefits, and the greed in his heart can no longer be suppressed from that moment. He found something that would make his cultivation faster, so he became more afraid of death than before.
He also knew that countless facts in history had proved that a cultivator's achievement was not in the morning or late of his cultivation, but in the time of breaking through the realm, and if he got that thing, he might be able to cross the four realms by the end of this year, and then he would be greeted by a bright future.
So today he was very excited, without any words, he came to the bank of the river between Surabaya, the Surabaya River flowed slowly, he gently stepped on a wooden boat, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief at the moment when he stepped on the wooden boat.
The wooden boat moved slowly, swaying on the water, swinging rhythmically, but Xiao Mingyang, who was originally relaxed, felt a cold aura hit him.
He jerked out of the cabin of the boat, looked at the figure of the ferryman in front of him, and said, "This is not the way I should go, who are you?"
"It's not the way you were supposed to go, but it's where you should be now. ”
Su Li turned around and looked at Xiao Mingyang behind him, his voice was extremely calm, without any fluctuations.
Such a strange tone made Xiao Mingyang feel uncomfortable, he was sure that he didn't know this young man, but he could feel the slightest cold killing intent in this young man's body, he felt the danger, so he was very careful, because now his life has become precious.
"Are you on that side?" he tried to calm himself down, and only by calming down could he find his chance.
Su Li shook it very seriously and said: "I'm not on my side, twelve years ago, it was you who participated in the logistics of intercepting the Demon Heaven, so that a batch of medicines arrived three days late, and a total of one hundred and twenty-seven people died for the Demon Heaven and his family. ”
Xiao Mingyang's face turned pale, the name that was taboo in his life, a nightmare he would never want to remember. But now this nightmare has been brought up, he instinctively feels fear, if it weren't for his deliberate delay, maybe he wouldn't have died so many people, but he did it according to the above meaning back then, but in the end, because of this incident, he never had a chance to turn over.
"Who the hell are you?" He didn't even notice that his voice was starting to tremble.
Su Li said softly: "I'm here to take revenge, I don't mean anything else, so I'm here to kill you." ”
After listening to these words, coupled with the recent arrival of the Supervision Yuan and the big man, Xiao Mingyang's body felt a piercing chill, he knew that the young man in front of him was just a child twelve years ago, and it was precisely when he thought of the possible identity of this child, which made him feel even more frightened.
He didn't believe that all of this was just the work of a child, and that there must be some people behind him.
"The Taiping Order is dead, what else do you want to do. ”
As soon as the words fell, Su Li moved, and a powerful force suddenly emerged from his originally calm body, his speed was very fast, and the boat was very small, and he appeared in front of Xiao Mingyang as if he was teleporting.
As a Three Realms cultivator, Xiao Mingyang instinctively raised his hand, two fingers stretched out, and the pale yellow true yuan in his body gushed out, converging into a short sword.
But just as the sword was about to be handed out, Su Li's right index finger was lightly touched, very gentle, without any weight, but such a simple finger destroyed the sword that was about to be struck.
At the moment when the two fought, Xiao Mingyang judged that Su Li was not long ago, a monk who had just stepped into the first realm, although this surprised him, but the joy in his heart surged into his heart, if he could take down this young man, then he could become a real big man, and he no longer had to be afraid of being killed because of that secret, because this would be his biggest talisman.
Thinking of the possible achievements in the future, his breathing couldn't help but increase a little, the cultivation of the third realm was fully opened, and the powerful True Yuan was rapidly gushing out from his body, he no longer cared about the burden that such a full mobilization of the True Yuan would bring to his body, what he wanted to do was to take down this young man.
The powerful True Yuan flowed out of his body, but it disappeared on the index finger of Su Li's right hand, and that empty feeling suddenly filled his heart.
"This is not the Heavenly Demon Sword, how can this not be the Heavenly Demon Sword?" Xiao Mingyang was very painful, the true yuan that he had worked hard to cultivate for decades was ruthlessly flowing out like this, he knew that after such an outflow, he would be greeted by no longer being able to cultivate, so he was very painful, and his voice became very sad.
The true yuan that stepped into the third realm slowly flowed into Su Li's body along that magical finger, and the powerful true yuan hit his sea of qi, Su Li snorted softly, but there was no pause in the movements on his body.
His fingers continued to move forward, and finally landed on Xiao Mingyang's sea of qi, and then his middle finger stretched out, turned into a finger sword, and stabbed it fiercely.
The next moment, Xiao Mingyang felt a tremor all over his body, and he heard a cracking sound, and the true yuan in the sea of qi converged into a river, and finally merged into Su Li's fingers. Tears flowed uncontrollably, and he knew that he was really useless.
In the sea of qi in his body, a delicate blood lotus flower also appeared, and the blood lotus flower was rooted in the sea of qi, as if it was devouring something.
Su Li gasped slightly, put away his fingers, and then said seriously to Xiao Mingyang: "I'm here to take revenge." ”
Feeling the delicate blood lotus in his body, the true element in his body had been completely drained, and a trace of special aura flowed out of the sea of qi, and then slowly merged into the blood lotus.
Xiao Mingyang's tearful face instantly flowed with pain, he seemed to have discovered the most terrifying thing in the world, and there seemed to be a flow of air in his throat blocking him, making his voice extremely hoarse.
"Red Lotus!"
