Chapter 76: The Firelight Illuminates a New Era

"Valley...... Valley Lord. ”

Gu Ling opened his mouth and hurriedly withdrew his right foot.

"Domineering and bullying, the face of the Medicine King Valley has been lost by you! Are you here to deliver supper, or are you here to off me? ”

Xia Gu's face was full of anger, and he kicked over the red sandalwood food box on the ground.

The three of them knelt down with fear on their faces, "The valley lord forgives his sins!" We just ......"

"Go to the Hall of Discipline and confess!"

Lord Xia Gu didn't pay any attention to the three of them, and helped Zheng Chu up.

"Sit down, don't be formal."

Back in the pavilion, the two sat down in the tea room, and Lord Xia Gu personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Zheng Chu.

"This tea can be regarded as the lord of this valley on behalf of Gu Ling, and they apologize to you, but I misdisciplined you. The lord of this valley promises you that he will be severely punished, and I hope you will not be cold to the Medicine King Valley. ”

"Ah, how dare you, the valley lord must not be worried......"

Seeing that the color of the tea soup in the cup was soft and white like jade, and the leaf veins were pale and thick, Zheng Chu couldn't help but praise: "Good tea!" Dare to ask the valley master, what is the name of this tea? ”

"Luobai, taken from the ancient tea tree born in the cliff of Yaowang Valley, can only be picked on the snowy night of the sting every year." Lord Xia Gu took a sip of tea.

"What if it doesn't snow?"

"Then I'll wait another year."

"It's so rare, thank you for the hospitality of the valley master." Zheng Chu saluted with the teacup.

Lord Xia Gu smiled indifferently and said calmly: "If you want to entertain the emperor, you naturally have to use the best tea." ”

Hearing this, Zheng Chu's action of drinking tea was paused, the candlelight swayed, and a gust of wind instantly rose in the pavilion, and the clothes and hair of the two of them moved with it.

Zheng Chu put down the teacup, and the corners of his mouth went up: "How did the valley master notice it?" ”

"The emperor hides it very well, but he can't hide it from me. It's just that I don't understand something, Gu Ling humiliated you so much, why didn't you resist? ”

"I am good at chess, and I am happy to be a chess piece, a game in the world. Since you want to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, you naturally need to act more seriously. ”

"I see, it's the lord of the valley who is disturbing the emperor Yaxing."

Seeing Chu Zhen pouring tea in a pot, Lord Xia Gu asked again: "The emperor is not afraid that the tea is poisonous?" ”

"What are you afraid of, the poison of the Tang Sect can't hurt me."

"Hmph, the Tang Sect is also worthy of being compared to the Medicine King Valley?" Lord Xia Gu said disdainfully, "The Qingshi Gu in this tea is not just poison, it is a living creature, the emperor should be careful." ”

"So what?" Chu Zhen smiled and drank the tea.

Seeing that the other party was safe and sound, Lord Xia Gu sighed, and his eyes fell on the tea cup in his hand.

The white mist on the tea soup curled, rising and changing, and she seemed to see the stubborn young man again in a trance, with the stars and moon on his head, braving the wind and snow to climb on the high cliff.

"Senior brother, come down quickly, it's getting dark."

"No, today is your birthday, I must ...... Ha, I got it! Yes! ”

The boy's feet slipped, and the whole person rolled all the way down the cliff, and finally fell into the snow and disappeared.

"Senior brother!"

The girl screamed and ran over.

Wow –

Suddenly, a hand stretched out in the snowdrift, and the boy got up, not bothering to fix the snow on his body, he opened his palm, and smiled when he saw a handful of goose yellow leaves huddled together.

"Give! Sister, your birthday gift. ”

"Whoever wants your congratulatory gift, don't mess around like this next time, it's too scary." The girl burst into tears and laughed.

"Okay, well, listen to my sister. But this tea tree has grown alone on the cliff for hundreds of years, and it doesn't have a name, it's really pitiful, junior sister, you can name it. ”

"You have fallen into snow for it, so you might as well call it 'falling white'." The girl smiled slyly.

……

"Lord Xia Gu, as long as you are loyal to the imperial court, I can give you everything you want, even if it is to rip the earth and seal the king." Chu Zhen looked at the silent Xia Gu Lord and said.

Lord Xia Gu didn't answer, and after a while, he suddenly said for no reason: "I should have asked him for clarification back then." ”

"What?" Chu Zhen looked puzzled.

"Boom!"

An earth-shattering loud bang broke the silence of the night, and a terrifying blue-white flame rose into the sky, and in an instant the entire night sky was as bright as day.

The entire Danya Pavilion with the mountain cliff was engulfed in flames and turned into flying ashes, and all the people within a radius of hundreds of miles woke up from their sleep and felt the shaking of the earth.

It turned out that there was a huge space in the mountain beside Lord Danya, which was the place of alchemy in the Medicine King Valley, and the Lord of the Summer Valley secretly placed a large number of explosives here.

These explosives are called "Cang Lian", which is more than ten times more powerful than ordinary black powder, and the inventor is a senior who is proficient in alchemy in Yaowang Valley, and it was originally to make fireworks for the Pomeranians to smile, so there is a word "love" in the name.

"Bang dang!"

Xia Honeysuckle pushed open the door, looked at the pillar of fire in the sky, and froze in place, her face was extremely pale under the firelight.

Half of the emerald jade pendant fell from the sky, rolling to her feet.

……

Early in the morning, Haguro の里.

As soon as the sky was bright, Yi Feiyun, who was still asleep, was woken up by the black feather pill who had finished his morning exercise.

After a period of getting along, the two have now turned enemies into friends.

"Lord Xia Gu is such a ruthless person."

Yi Feiyun, who was sitting on the stack, put down the letter and sighed.

His current mood was a little mixed, after all, it was his plan for the Xia Gu Lord, but Yi Feiyun didn't expect the Xia Gu Lord to take this kind of means to end up together.

"I can't figure it out, Chu Zhen is the emperor, how could he run to assassinate him personally?"

Kurobamaru's face was puzzled, in his cognition, assassination was something that only a low-ranking person like a ninja would do. Changed to Toei, it was the emperor who infiltrated Haguro to assassinate Hikaritamakure, which was incredible.

"He has to go, Qing Shi Gu and tens of thousands of corpse soldiers are enough to subvert the world. Moreover, there are many masters in the Medicine King Valley, and the Xia Gu Lord is not an idle person, and he is not afraid of poisoning, so if he wants to assassinate the Xia Gu Lord, I am afraid that no one can do it except Chu Zhen. ”

Yi Feiyun picked up the teacup from the low food table next to him and took a few sips of water.

"Besides, instead of destroying Qingshi Gu, Chu Zhen should want to take the Xia Gu Lord for his own use. Such a terrifying Gu technique, although it is a sideshow, can also be called a weapon of the country. ”

"I see, I see." Kurobamaru Road.

"But ......"

Yi Feiyun put down the teacup and said, "I originally just suggested that the Lord of Xia Gu use the mother Gu of Qingshi Gu as a bait to lead Chu Zhen into a trap and kill him, and then mentioned that he could use explosives as a trap. I didn't expect the Xia Gu Lord to be so ruthless and act as a bait. ”

"Is there a difference?"

"Doesn't it make a difference? One is a thing, and the other is a person. ”

"What about people? The most worthless thing in troubled times is human life. Kurobamaru sneered, "As long as you can achieve your goal, it's normal to sacrifice in order to complete the mission." If you are indecisive, you tend to lose more. ”

"The world of ninjas is really dark...... Yi Feiyun sighed, and what the other party said was completely in line with his impression of ninjas' ruthlessness.

"By the way, how do you know that Qing Shi Gu has a mother Gu?" Kurobamaru suddenly thought of something and asked curiously, "Do you still know Gu arts?" ”

"Of course I don't understand, I've just read in books that a large number of infected Gu worms like this are generally controlled by a female Gu." Yifeiyun said, "But it doesn't matter if there is a mother Gu or not, if you release the news that there is, then there is." The important thing is not whether there is or not, but whether Chu Zhen believes it or not, as long as he believes in the existence of this mother Gu who can control the corpse soldiers, then the strategy will be done. ”

"Awesome, are you a military advisor?" Kurobamaru said with sincere admiration.

"No, I'm an immortal cultivator."

After speaking, Yi Feiyun lay down and wrapped the quilt tightly and continued to sleep, leaving a bewildered black feather pill.

He knew that as soon as Chu Zhen died, a new era would begin.
