Chapter Forty-Nine: Absolute Sky Immortal
The man in black was about to turn away when he heard someone calling behind him.
"Hey, I said dude in front, what are you looking at?"
The man in black was startled, he could be deceived by someone and didn't realize it, he quickly turned his head to look, and the person who came was a middle-aged man in brocade clothes, and a young scribe in sloppy clothes.
His gaze finally fell on the young scribe, implicitly vigilant. Years of experience licking blood from the knife had taught him that this man was extremely dangerous. And that call was also made by this person. As for the brocade staff, he is also a master who is not too big or small, but he is far worse than the young scribes.
Indeed, the young scribe walked slowly towards the man in black, seemingly leisurely, but every step was as accurate as a ruler.
The "master" man in black's pupils contracted, and decided to strike first, and did it when he thought of it. A sword light seemed to light up from nothingness, and went straight to the young scribe's face, and no one could see where he drew the sword from. This sword light condensed and did not dissipate, and it was only when it was a foot in front of the young scribe that the most brilliant light suddenly bloomed, illuminating the dark jungle for a while.
The dilated pupils of the man in black showed the excitement in his heart, this was the strongest killing move in the Aurora Sword Technique, and Shaohua was fleeting. Countless masters died under his sudden outburst of moves, and there were even existences whose kung fu was much higher than him, but what about that, there is a difference between life and death fighting and martial arts after all, no matter how strong Mingsu is, no matter how strong the grandmaster, in the face of the killer is also a lamb to be slaughtered.
Suddenly, a white and flawless hand appeared in the field of vision of the man in black, this hand was slender and white, as if it had been maintained for many years. Such a weak hand actually plunged straight into the brilliant sword light, causing a strong visual impact.
The black-clothed man's expression stiffened, watching the sword light collapse in front of his eyes, and then there was a pain in the tiger's mouth, and even the knife was taken away by the other party. Just as he was about to make further movements, the short knife as thin as a cicada's wings broke and turned into countless cold lights, shooting towards him, instantly beating him into a sieve.
"Tianluo Finger, Absolute Sky Immortal Luo Shen Yilun," this last thought slowly dissipated with the darkness of his eyes.
The brocade clerk stepped forward and wondered, "Why don't you stay alive?"
The young scribe said indifferently: "It's a person from the Bloody Cloak Building, and the Bloody Cloak Building will never leave a living mouth." Since he is dying, it is better to kill the account directly. ”
As if to confirm the young scribe's words, the man in black's exposed skin quickly darkened, apparently taking poison at the same time as he was killed. Because it was killed so quickly, the body still worked by inertia for a while, sending the poison to all parts of the body. At the same time, it also shows the fierceness of this poison, which poisons the whole body in just a moment. I saw that the brocade staff was in a cold sweat.
The next thing that scared him even more was that two black projectiles slipped from the man in black's released left hand.
"Boom. The brocade man's outer pupils shrank, apparently recognizing it. Just now, he felt that the young scribe was too cautious, with his excellent martial arts, how could he be able to counterattack even if the black-clothed explosive potential could be counterattacked, and only then did he understand the decisiveness of the other party.
"Wang Kang, what the hell is going on? Speaking of business, the young scribe's tone became a little more serious, he didn't care too much, but now that even the bloody clothes building has come out, he can't help but be careless.
It was Wang Kang outside the brocade staff, and he could hear the boss's question, so he hurriedly said respectfully: "Back to Lord Shen, I originally received a secret order from Gyeonggi to act, but who knew that there were extraneous branches, and these moths came out." ”
Wang Kang was originally a secret agent of the Dark Division in Jiangcheng, and he has been monitoring the movements of the rivers and lakes here to collect the wind for the Dark Division. This time, he received an urgent order from the capital, saying: Chen An, the prisoner of Tiance Guard, has been missing in Fuzhou for more than a month. Tingwei Xu Qian sent down the golden scale seal of the eight directions, and if you want to see people in life, you must see corpses in death. The ground shook throughout Fuzhou.
Wang Kangming's identity on the face is a Jiangcheng gentry, and it can be regarded as a hand and eye to the sky, mobilizing the forces under his command, and he really found out a little eyebrows. But just when he was about to investigate deeply, he was inserted into another major event, and countless people from the rivers and lakes poured into Jiangcheng, but he didn't dare to act rashly, so he had to ask for help from Shangfeng.
But as the number of people in the rivers and lakes increased, he gradually lost hope for the reinforcements above, but who knew that it was Shen Yilun, the Absolute Sky Immortal, how could he not be overjoyed, he knew that although the other party was dressed as a scribe, he really wanted to move more ruthlessly than anyone else. Moreover, the status is very high, and he has the right to mobilize the power of the guard, and in front of the state apparatus, no matter how many people in the rivers and lakes are, they are also chickens and dogs.
He straightened out his thoughts and continued: "Over the past few days, all the evidence shows that Lord Chen was rescued by Shangcheng Ming's family after being seriously injured by the blood division thief that day. After that, the humble post drew up a name, falsely claiming that the person saved by the Ming family was the nephew of the humble family, hoping that they would hand over the people, and also offered a thank you gift. This is a reasonable thing, and the lowly etiquette is also very thoughtful, but the strange thing is that the Ming family just doesn't admit it. ”
Shen Yilun's eyes froze, and he didn't speak, only listened to Wang Kang continue: "This Ming family is a big man in Jiangcheng, inherited from generation to generation, and it is much more powerful than that of the lowly office, and the lowly position does not dare to provoke easily, so he can only ask the Fuzhou Weisu to find a way, but before the spies of the Weicheng Institute arrived, Jiangcheng poured into a large group of people from the rivers and lakes, all of whom have all kinds of factions, as if the entire Southern Wulin is going to open a martial arts conference in Jiangcheng." ”
"What is the reason, have you found it?" Shen Yilun finally couldn't help but speak, the key was that this matter was too weird, and even he was curious.
"The spies of the guard got a piece of news, saying that the Ming family had unearthed the relics of the previous dynasty. ”
"The relics of the previous dynasty?" Shen Yilun raised his eyebrows, the previous dynasty existed for more than 300 years, experienced 18 emperors, it can be said that it has a long history, and there are many treasures. In fact, not everyone has the ambition to win the world, and many of these princes are just for the sake of wealth and nobility, so they wantonly loot the people's fat and ointment, and store it for future generations.
It's ridiculous that in the troubled times, the day is precarious, and you can't even eat a meal, who can take care of these gold, silver and jewelry, and the pearl has been covered with dust until now.
Since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there have been many treasure troves have been excavated, the imperial court has turned a blind eye to this kind of thing, it is really the value of these treasures has not yet reached the level that can make the imperial court look sideways, it is better to abandon the "people", save being crowned by those scholars and doctors to "compete with the people" big hat, and it is not worth raising teachers for this thing. Those so-called treasures may be rich if one person is put on one side, but if one country is put on one, it is a drop in the bucket.
Of course, if the meat comes to the mouth, there is absolutely no reason not to eat it, and the departments stationed in the dark division specializing in the affairs of the rivers and lakes in various places will generally intervene when they encounter this kind of good thing, even if they don't kill people and take money, they will leave some benefits by plucking their feathers. So Shen Yilun opened his mouth and asked, "What is the opinion of Fuzhou Secret Siwei on this matter?" ”
"Lord Dutong Feng only ordered to pay close attention to the movements of the Ming family, but did not explain more about the matter of the relics. Wang Kang replied honestly.
Shen Yilun was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile. Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, and the treasures of Fuzhou have appeared in the world, and Fuzhou Wei has no reason not to participate, although it will be criticized by scholars, but which can have that kind of determination in the face of real benefits. But after all, this is the inertial thinking under normal circumstances, and now Chen An, the superintendent of Tiance Guard, is involved, and the government and the opposition are paying attention, and playing their own small abacus at this time, it is really impossible to get out of the eyes of the money. What's more, Chen An's name of "King of Ten Thousand Poisonous Ghosts" is not called in vain. It is rumored that Haizhou's "drought and extinction" was done by him. The so-called no wind and no waves, this rumor will not be groundless. Now on the rivers and lakes, the dark division has passed him to a demon-like existence, and when it comes to him, who is not worried.
After figuring out the attitude of Fuzhou Wei, Shen Yilun no longer paid attention to the issue of the treasure, and continued to ask: "What is the situation of the Ming family now, have you found out?"
Wang Kang said respectfully: "The specific situation is still being investigated, on the surface, the Ming brothers went to sea together to hunt for treasure, but only Ming Shaojie came back." ”
He was afraid that Shen Yilun would not understand who Ming Shaojie was, so he hurriedly explained: "The heads of the Ming family of the older generation are almost dead, and the patriarch of the Ming family is served by Ming Gui of the long house, Ming Gui has four sons and six daughters, and only Ming Shaojie is a son-in-law who is quite favored." This time it was the Ming Gui and Ming Wan brothers in the long room, the Ming Yi Ming Jing in the second room and the Ming Mu in the seventh room, and there were several of them in the younger generation, and the only ones who really came back were Ming Shaojie and a concubine named Ming Jian in the second room, and there were still a few servants left. The Ming family went to six or seven out of ten men this time. Directly from the top family in Jiangcheng into the second or third rate, it can be regarded as a great injury. ”
Shen Yilun said clearly: "So the whereabouts of the treasure will fall on the body of Ming Shaojie, and Ming Shaojie is the target of these Jianghu people." ”
"Your Excellency. Wang Kang bowed down.
The cool breeze in the forest hit, and a group of people galloped out from the direction of Jiangcheng, and went up the official road, this is already the second group of people after Li Qingrui's two daughters left, Shen Yilun stood in the forest and watched their backs, and suddenly asked: "The two women just now don't seem to be going for the treasure, who are they?"
"They are from Dongtai Mingyue Palace. ”
"Mingyue Palace, Dongtai, they are the people of the county lord of Dongping. Shen Yilun was stunned.
"My lord is wise," Wang Kang slapped his ass quietly: "As an orphan of the previous dynasty, the county lord of Lanqi was canonized as the county lord of Dongping by the grace of the saint, and the food is Dongtai County." She is good at martial arts by nature, so she simply established a sect called Mingyue Palace, and took the position of palace master. I have inherited the legacy of the previous dynasty very deeply, especially in the two states of Qingfu, there are many people left behind by the previous dynasty, and there is a lot of maintenance for the county lord of the previous dynasty in everything, so the power of Mingyue Palace in Fuzhou is very great. ”
"Then how did they get involved with the Ming family?" Shen Yilun felt a little tricky, he could completely ignore the treasures and whatever, his martial arts had reached the point where he had been able to restrain his desires very well, and many things outside his body were also very open. But he felt a headache for Shangying Lanqi, of course he was not afraid of the power of Mingyue Palace, but on the issue of the orphans of the previous dynasty, many things were more sensitive. There are many Taoist gentlemen in the court, and one can easily drown in saliva if he doesn't handle it well. If it gives people the illusion that the imperial court wants to settle the old affairs of the previous dynasty, then he will be involved in a big matter, and in this turbulent period it is simply adding fuel to the fire and stabbing the hornet's nest.
"Minggui's wife, Yu Mengying, was born in Mingyue Palace, and her seniority is not low, so many people in the rivers and lakes are attacking violently, of course she will ask her mother's family for help. Wang Kang replied faithfully, as a senior secret agent, the information he has must not be underestimated.
Shen Yilun nodded noncommittally, indicating that he understood, and waved his hand: "Let's go and have a look, when the time comes, we don't think about the treasure, we just want to find Chen Dujian." There is no conflict with these disputes. ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, leaving one step at a time. Wang Kang in the back unfolded his body and ran with all his strength to barely keep up.
