The world is like a tide, only forge ahead and fight for your life!
Li Xuan picked up the silver snow spear and flicked the big gun, the big gun buzzed, and seemed to resist Li Xuan a little. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info This big spear gathers the soul blood of the Song family for eight hundred years, although it is not cast by divine materials, but it is connected to the bloodline of the disciples of the Song family, once the ancestral bloodline is activated, the evil aura is awe-inspiring, and the power is doubled. For the Changfeng Dart Bureau, which has no artifact background, this big gun is a divine treasure that suppresses the heritage, and it cannot be lost.
Stepping on the stone in the wind, Li Xuan stepped down the mountain and strode forward, heading to Wofeng Mountain.
After walking through the mountains and mountains for most of the day, Li Xuan came to a small river. The river is clear, the fish and shrimp are happy, and the wisps of water and grass are light. Putting down the silver snow gun, Li Xuan took a sip of the river water, and then picked up the river water to wash his face.
Suddenly, Li Xuan frowned slightly, holding the river water and sniffing at the tip of his nose.
The smell of blood!
However, Li Xuan could still smell it, during this time, Li Xuan had fought bloody battles and was extremely sensitive to the smell of blood. In an instant, Li Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, his vigilant footsteps and breathing lightly, holding down the Yanhuang Sword with one hand, grasping the barrel of the big gun with the other, and slowly walking up the blood-smelling river.
"Huh?"
Li Xuan saw a man in black from a distance, lying by the river, his chest overflowing with blood, and wisps of blood seeped into the river. Li Xuan approached, and the man in black sat up suddenly, looking at Li Xuan vigilantly, holding a thin sword in his hand, and there was a notch in the middle of the thin sword, a notch for bloodletting.
Rapier with a bloodletting slot......
Li Xuan suddenly became vigilant. Most of the swords in the rivers and lakes are more than three feet long and three inches wide, and there will never be a blood groove in the middle. And the sword in the hand of the man in black is only two feet long and two inches wide, and the sword body also has a slender notch, which is clearly not a sword in the rivers and lakes!
It's the Sword of Shadows!
The shadow is the shadow in the dark, and this shadow is naturally the shadow of His Majesty the Emperor and the Ninety-Five Emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty. Three hundred years ago, Xiao Tianshi led the way in the Central Plains and established the foundation of the Great Jin Dynasty. Xiao Tianshi learned the lessons of the demise of the previous dynasty, cared about the suffering of the people, supervised the officials of the world, and hereby set up a shadow. The shadow is the eyes and ears of the emperor, listening to the voices of the people of the world, and supervising the officials of the world.
It is rumored that there are 100,000 shadows in the world, and the Son of Heaven sits in the palace, but his ears and eyes hear the corners of the world.
It is precisely because of the shadow that the emperor lives in the deep palace, and he can also listen to the words in the hearts of the people in the world, so that the voices of the people can reach the heavens, making the officials tremble and dare not fish the people.
However, gradually the shadow has one more duty, which is to do things for the nobles in the palace. Most of the so-called things are not very glamorous, and gradually, the reputation of the shadow is also bad. All the blades of the Shadow are short, narrow swords with blood grooves!
Could this be the Man in the Shadows?
When the man in black saw Li Xuan staring at his sword, he suddenly realized in his heart that he was about to hide the short sword. Li Xuan smiled: "No need to hide, I am the Central Plains of the Great Jin." ”
The man in black paused slightly, and stopped hiding the sword. Since he is a native of the Central Plains of the Great Jin Dynasty, and he is staring at his sword, he naturally understands the identity of his shadow, so there is nothing to hide. Although the reputation of the shadow has not been very good in recent years, after all, it is for the palace, and it can be regarded as above board, not ashamed!
The man in black reluctantly stood up, covered the scar on his chest, and said, "Okay, since you are from the Central Plains, you should also know my identity, I need your help now." ”
"What's the matter?" Li Xuan asked.
The man in black said, "Send me a letter." ”
Immediately, the man in black pulled out a letterhead. The letterhead was yellow, faintly imprinted with a five-clawed golden dragon roaring in the clouds. Li Xuan glanced at the letterhead, and knew in his heart that this must be the letterhead in the palace!
Li Xuan didn't take the letterhead, and said lightly: "You Shadow is for the emperor, I'm just a grass people, you let me send the letterhead, can you trust me?" Or is it that I'm not your Shadow person, you are still injured, there must be danger, why should I send you this letterhead?"
The rivers and lakes are deep, and they are just a waterhole.
Water ...... of the Imperial Palace It was like an ocean, unfathomable.
Li Xuan wants to rescue Chu Bingyi, Li Xuan wants to go to Wofeng Mountain to find the Song family, and Li Xuan has to avoid the pursuit of the Northwest Coalition Army...... All in all, Li Xuan is very busy, and he has no time to take care of the shadows, and besides, Li Xuan really doesn't want to wade into the troubled waters of the imperial court, so he can't afford to wade in!
The man in black had a twinkle in his eyes with a hint of anger.
On weekdays, wherever the shadow office goes, it is not sent from afar, it has always been high-spirited, issuing orders, and now it is good, asking Li Xuan for help, Li Xuan is not happy. The black-clothed man's eyes flickered, suppressed his anger, and said, "This strong man, I don't know which sect in the northwest you are a disciple?"
Li Xuan blinked, looked at the man in black with interest, and said with a smile: "How do you know that I am a disciple of the Northwest Sect?"
The man in black showed a touch of arrogance, and said with a slight smugness: "There is nothing in the world that our shadows don't know. The Northwest will be in the Wudi Temple of the Alliance, and will crusade against the peripheral Lanshan Demon Sect branches. Triumphant all the way, gambling in front of Zimo Mountain, and later, a young master of demon thieves named Li Xuan fought with the Northwest Coalition Army and slaughtered countless Northwest Coalition Army. Now, the entire Northwest Sect is searching for Li Xuan, and you are naturally a member of the Northwest Sect. “
"Uh-huh"
Li Xuan nodded and said, "Yes, yes, what you said is right, the shadow ears and eyes really live up to their reputation." However, you still guessed one thing wrong, I am not the disciple of the Northwest Alliance Army in your mouth, but the Li Xuan who slaughtered the people in the Northwest......"
"What? You're Li Xuan!"
When the man in black heard Li Xuan's name, he was immediately frightened and retreated, his body trembled, and he looked at Li Xuan with panic. Li Xuan himself didn't know that his reputation was already so loud! You must know that when Li Xuan was in charge of the Changfeng Alliance, he was already prestigious, and the Zimo Mountain gambling battle tore Gao Shuang alive, and it was even more intimidating. As for the Zimo Mountain Palace, the slaughter of hundreds of people in the northwest in the First World War made Li Xuan's endless demon prestige.
Fierce gods and evil spirits, monstrous demon names!
One person, slaughtering hundreds of Northwest Coalition troops, still includes the leaders of the various major sects...... This kind of fierce man, this kind of fierce man, who is not afraid!
Li Xuan blinked and asked, "What's wrong?"
The man in black stared at Li Xuan, and seeing that Li Xuan was not the legendary demon with blue fangs and devouring human blood and bones, his heart was slightly settled, and he said with a slight trembling: "Yes, you are indeed very famous." Li Gongzi's reputation ......"
"How's my reputation? ”
As he spoke, Li Xuan's big mouth cracked, revealing Bai Sensen's big teeth. Seeing Li Xuan's white teeth, the black-clothed man trembled in his heart, forced his composure, and then explained a few words of the situation to Li Xuan. What happened in the Northwest Lanshan, the shadow had already figured out and uploaded it to the imperial court. Now Li Xuan's murderous reputation is not only spread in the periphery of Lanshan, not only in the northwest, but also in the Central Plains court.
The more I listen, the tighter my heart is, and the more I listen, the more cold my heart is!
I thought that if Aunt Mei went to Ningzhou and found Li Xiaoyao, she would naturally be able to explain her identity and justify her name. Now it seems that it is not so simple, in the imperial court, he has become a typical representative of the devil thief!
How good is that!
Li Xuan's expression was all in the eyes of the man in black. Although the man in black is a person in the shadows, he is a fart in the palace! Any person in the palace is the identity of the master, and he can command himself. Therefore, what the man in black is best at is not martial arts cultivation, but observing words and colors, and discerning people's hearts.
Faintly seeing Li Xuan's thoughts, the man in black asked tentatively, "Li Gongzi, are you really from the Northwest, not from the Lanshan Demon Sect?"
"Nonsense!"
Li Xuan was angry and said unhappily: "What is the reputation of the murderer, I am a cow and a horse for the Northwest Alliance, and no one knows about the conquest of Lanshan." I did a few foolish things and was put on such a big hat...... What's more, I have been slandered at all, I have been wronged! Where am I a young master of a demon thief, it is simply ridiculous. ”
"Huh"
The man in black smiled and said playfully: "Whether it's slander or not, this hat of the young master of the demon thief is not so easy to carry." Once he is labeled as a young master of demon thieves, it will be difficult to move an inch in the Central Plains. I heard that when Li Gongzi was fighting against demons in the coalition army, he was extremely ferocious, if it was really as Li Gongzi said, Li Gongzi was not a young master of demon thieves, but was slandered...... Hehe, I'm afraid that the Demon Sect can't tolerate Li Gongzi. ”
"Li Gongzi's situation...... Hey. The man in black laughed.
Li Xuan blinked, Li Xuan also smiled, and said lightly, "Are you laughing at me?"
The smile is a little cold, and the big teeth are a little white.
The black-clothed man felt a chill in his heart, and he didn't dare to laugh at Li Xuan anymore, so he said, "Master Li, in fact, these rumors are not important. Now there is an opportunity to clear Li Gongzi's notoriety, and it depends on whether Li Gongzi is willing to do it. ”
"What do you mean?" asked Li Xuan.
The man in black looked at the letterhead in his hand and said, "What is righteousness, what is magic? As long as Li Gongzi is willing to do things for the emperor and obey the emperor's orders, he will be loyal ministers of the court and the emperor's confidants, and he will naturally be righteous. Zheng and the devil are just a word from the emperor, but an edict from the imperial court. ”
"The emperor lives deep in the palace, and if he wants to distinguish who is right and who is the devil, he relies on us in the shadows. As long as Li Gongzi sent me this letterhead, I would introduce Li Gongzi to join the Shadow. At that time, Li Gongzi is a person in our shadows, a person of the emperor, naturally he is right, who in the world dares to say a word!"
Zheng and the devil are both between the emperor's words and the court's order!
Li Xuan blinked and muttered, "Good idea, yours is a good idea...... Okay, tell me, who is this letter for?"
The world is like a net, and if you don't have the ability to break through the net, you will be bound by the rules of the world.
Now, the big net of rules that bind Li Xuan is fame. The current Li Xuan does not have the ability to ignore the constraints of the world, and reputation is quite important to Li Xuan. If he is allowed to bear the reputation of the young master of the demon thief, whether it is the Great Jin Imperial Court or the Lanshan Demon Sect, they will not be able to tolerate Li Xuan.
And the reputation of the righteous demon is just an edict of the imperial power.
It seems that being able to hang the title of Shadow and wash away his reputation as a young master of demon thieves is not a bad thing, not only is it not a bad thing, it is simply a great good thing! Not to mention...... Under Li Xuan's inquiry, this letterhead turned out to be sent to Wofeng Mountain.
Wofeng Mountain.
Li Xuan's trip this time was just to go to Wofeng Mountain.
Li Xuan took the letterhead, held the letterhead and smiled lightly, "When can I become a member of the Shadows?"
"Now you're one of the shadows. ”
The man in black laughed, took two steps, and took out a package from behind the rocks by the creek. Unwrap the package, which contains some messy items. The man in black took out a golden token and a narrow broken sword, and said with a smile: "Now, Qin Yan, the deputy commander of the Shadow of the Capital, has officially incorporated Li Xuan into the Shadow of the Capital. Since then, Li Xuan has been a man in the shadows, and he wants to do things for the emperor wholeheartedly, listen to the words of the four seas, and admonish the ears of the Son of Heaven. This is our Shadow Sword, and the token. ”
Li Xuan blinked, feeling a little too sudden, in just a few words, he actually became a person in the shadows!
I'll go!
What are you afraid of?
Lao Tzu is a man in the shadows who eats the emperor's food and does things for His Majesty the Emperor, who dares to say that he is the young master of the demon thief. If he is a young master of demon thieves, wouldn't he say that the emperor does not know people and uses the enemy as his eyes, ears and henchmen!
"I am willing to serve the emperor's ear, do my best, and serve the emperor for the dogs and horses. As he spoke, Li Xuan took the token, as well as the Shadow Sword. The sword is not more than said, but the token is engraved with small characters, 'Shadow of the capital, No. 976.' ’。
"Hahaha...... From now on, you and I will be our own people. Qin Yan laughed.
Li Xuan hung the Shadow Sword from his waist, stared at the token, and couldn't help asking, "What does Ninety-Seven-Six mean?"
"It's not interesting, it's just numbering. ”
Qin Yan said: "Since Taizu Dingding Kyushu, he has set up a shadow, investigated the people's feelings, and supervised the officials, so that the people's voices can be heard by the sky, so that the officials are afraid and dare not fish the people." Our shadows are also correspondingly divided into ten parts, nine states in the world, and each state is a shadow. The capital is a major place, and a shadow is set up separately. The Shadow of the Capital is divided into nine commanders, and each commander is directly responsible for admonishing the emperor. Under each commander, more than a dozen deputy commanders were appointed. ”
"Haha...... , I, Qin Yan, am the deputy commander under the eighth commander of the capital. And you, Li Xuan, are the Shadow No. 976 under our Eighth Commander. Well, now you get the idea. ”
After Qin Yan finished speaking, Li Xuan couldn't help but grunt in his throat, and couldn't help asking, "The Nine Great Commanders of the Capital City are only under the banner of the Eighth Commander, and I was sent to the Ninety-Seventy-Six...... How many shadows are there in the capital? That's too much!"
"Can't say that. ”
Qin Yan waved his hand and said, "The nine shadow commanders of the capital, each of them has a thousand shadow commanders. This is also the same as the shadow compilation of Kyushu in the world, you think, how vast the Great Jin Dynasty is. Even the northwest only accounts for one-third of Tianshui Prefecture. In the entire Tianshui Prefecture, the shadows are also like the capital, which are the nine commanders and the nine thousand shadows. These nine thousand shadows are distributed in the vast Tianshui Prefecture, which is very rare. In the capital, dignitaries and nobles gathered, it is a royal land, and nine thousand shadows are not too many. Moreover, the shadows of our capital do not stay in the capital many times. Just think about it now, the shadow of our capital, not a secret order, has come to the northwest Lanshan. ”
The people in power in the world, in order to monitor the world, are really willing to spend blood!
Li Xuan secretly thought to himself in his heart, the ten shadows in the world are the emperor's 10,000 eyes and ears, but they really control every corner. (To be continued.) )
