Chapter 124: Ouchi Guards
The middle-aged Taoist who was called the Great Inner Offering by Xiao Yu was silent, with no obvious expression on his face, and a giant sword on his back, carefully looking at the young man who was not very respectful to him, and could even be said to be very rude.
Dressed in a very ordinary robe, with a long sword hanging from his waist, and a dark yellow paper umbrella on his back, it was probably the mixed yuan umbrella given by Autumn Leaves. And if you look at the face, you can barely count the word Qingjun, there is a big gap between him and a beautiful man, but his bearing is quite extraordinary.
So much so that this person with a very noble identity didn't even make a move at the first time, but he only felt that the legend that this young man stepped on the frost in March is true?
Xiao Yu, who was a hundred zhang away, held his hand on the hilt of the sword, and calmly looked at this Ouchi worship with yellow forging around his waist, this time he did not choose to strike first.
There are two reasons, the first is that this place is not far from Xiao Yu's mother's grave, he doesn't want to disturb his mother's peace, in case the fight accidentally affects his mother's tomb, Xiao Yu doesn't think this is the way to be a son of man. Second, Xiao Yu has not officially torn his face, and some small actions in private are just tacit, and after arriving at Qingjing, all parties have a tacit understanding to stop, just waiting for Xiao Lie to appear, and at this time, this big inner worship came suddenly, Xiao Yu also wanted to see what his purpose was.
As for Ouchi worship, as the name suggests, it has some similar responsibilities to Ouchi guards, but its status is much higher.
After the proprietor established Dazheng, he felt the strength of the cultivators and founded the new Tianji Pavilion based on the destroyed old Tianji Pavilion. A hundred years later, although the Taoist sect was successfully expelled, the Tianji Pavilion also became a big trend, and Emperor Zheng had no choice but to recruit loose cultivators, and even the disciples of the major sects were hidden in the palace, and these cultivators who became the lackeys of Emperor Zheng were enshrined in the Great Interior.
This middle-aged Taoist with yellow forging around his waist and a giant sword on his back is undoubtedly similar to the role of the emperor's close ministers. However, if it is said that he came with a holy order, Xiao Yu is ten thousand unbelievers, and he has not yet reached the point where he can enter the eyes of Emperor Zheng.
How could the emperor of a vast empire care all day about a down-and-out son who was not liked by his father?
Neither of the two made the first move, but after staring at each other with such big eyes for nearly a quarter of an hour, a group of brocade-clothed people rushed over, carrying golden knives, and killing in a gaseous manner.
A martial arts practitioner who kills people.
There are many martial arts practitioners in Dazheng, and those with advanced realms are generally concentrated in three places, the army, the secret guard, and the palace.
In the palace are the Ouchi guards.
This group of Ouchi guards flickered around, and the distance between them was six or seven zhang, and they easily jumped over the rugged mountain road and came behind the middle-aged Taoist.
The leader was a man in black who had passed the confusion, and when he came to the middle-aged Taoist three zhang behind him, he suddenly stopped, and more than a dozen Ouchi guards behind him stopped one after another.
The Ouchi guards stood silently, forming a formation between every three people, a total of twelve people, divided into four formations, and the four formations echoed each other.
Xiao Yu didn't see the dozen or so big internal attendants, but just looked at the middle-aged Taoist and said calmly: "Why did this worship lord come this time? If it was for Xiao's head, then the sword in Xiao's hand would be happy to communicate with the adult." ”
The middle-aged Daoist with the giant sword on his back frowned, and many of the Ouchi guards behind him also had displeased faces. However, the man in black who led the way had an indifferent face, and couldn't help but let Xiao Yu look at him more.
The difference between Ouchi enshrinement and Ouchi guards is like the difference between knights and magicians in Western countries, and the value of a magician is equivalent to a dozen knights or even more. The giant sword that the middle-aged Taoist was carrying behind was the treasure in the palace, and it was the master of the Old Heavenly Machine Pavilion who absorbed the essence of earth and fire, injected it into a hundred years of red copper, and then cast this sword with the life of the current sword-casting master.
Later, the old Tianji Pavilion was destroyed by the proprietor, and the treasures in it fell into the hands of the royal family. Since then, most of them have been given to Ouchi for worship.
But it doesn't mean that the Ouchi guards are the cabbage on the side of the road is worthless, plus the head of the guard, a total of thirteen Ouchi guards, each holds a golden knife, this golden knife is not as good as the giant sword of the middle-aged Taoist, but compared to the general loose cultivation of magic weapons, the golden knife is several times that of ordinary magic weapons, regardless of the material, the engraved seal or the power.
A young Ouchi guard stepped forward and snorted coldly, "Bold!"
This inner guard also belongs to the list of close ministers of the Son of Heaven, and can often come into contact with the emperor, and the prime minister's concierge is considered a seven-rank official, how tall is this close minister of the Son of Heaven?
In addition to the few governors, elders, and scholars of the current dynasty, how many of the other courtiers dared to underestimate them so much?
So the Ouchi guard made no secret of his anger.
The middle-aged Taoist and the head of the guards did not speak, which was regarded as acquiescence.
Xiao Yu didn't bother to be polite to them, and said directly: "What are you doing here? If you don't say it again, don't blame me for picking people up." ”
The Ouchi guard said angrily: "I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue, I want to see how you pick me up." ”
He slammed his feet on the ground. The ground is shattered inch by inch, like a root under the feet.
Xiao Yu chuckled, clapped his hands, and a big green vitality hand emerged from the big inner guard, grabbing him, just like an old farmer pulling an onion, pulling it up, and throwing it far down the mountain.
The commander of the guards, who had been standing aside, jumped up, grabbed the shirt of the guard who was about to fly down the mountain, and gently pulled him back to the ground.
Xiao Yu didn't look at the red-faced Ouchi guard, but just glanced at the guard commander who had been silent, and said, "You have been in the palace for too long, don't look at the outside world, one day, or now, you will become a frog at the bottom of the well." ”
For the first time, the commander of the guards spoke, "That's something Your Majesty is considering. Thou shalt not speak falsely. ”
The middle-aged Taoist raised his eyebrows, but he was noncommittal about the statement of the commander of the guards.
Xiao Yu continued: "Do you have His Majesty's will to come this time?"
The middle-aged Taoist shook his head and said, "On the orders of His Royal Highness the King of Jin." ”
Xiao Yu said with a smile: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin can mobilize His Majesty's guards, this is not good news for His Majesty. Or did His Majesty acquiesce?"
The middle-aged Taoist sighed, "His Royal Highness the King of Jin is a well-thought-out person, and he won't make such a stupid move, so it seems that His Majesty probably knows." ”
Xiao Yu's expression turned cold, "It doesn't matter if Your Majesty knows it or not, but since there is no holy order, even if you leave the palace without permission, it doesn't hurt to kill it." ”
The guard commander who had been expressionless all the time, and was also privately called Iron-Faced Yama by his subordinates in the palace, smiled unprecedentedly, "Xiao Gongzi, don't worry, after all, you are still the nominal princess of Qingyue, and we can't do too much, we can only live and die by means and have their own destiny." ”
Xiao Yu smiled, very cold, "Don't worry, you can't run, I guess Xiao Lie is already on the way up the mountain." ”
The faces of the twelve Ouchi guards changed suddenly.
The guard commander's face was extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Formation!"
The twelve Ouchi guards drew their swords and unsheathed, and quickly changed their positions with the guard commander as the center.
Xiao Yu turned a deaf ear and just sighed softly, "Five years ago, you didn't dare to disobey Emperor Zheng, I don't know if you dare this time?"
