Chapter 43: Invitation
At this time, several days have passed since the destruction of the Divine Machine Pavilion, and all the sects, including the Jingyue Building to which Xu Ru belongs, have returned, and only the official mansion and Tianjian Mountain are left in Chongzhou.
And She Bao and his party did not leave, but temporarily settled in the local government and continued to secretly urge the development of certain things......
……
These days, there are rumors that the disciples of Tianjian Mountain have harmed the local civilians, and in the rumors, the disciples of Tianjian Mountain can be described as burning, killing, looting, and doing all kinds of evil.
At first, many civilians, including civilians, only thought that someone was deliberately smearing.
After all, although Tianjian Mountain has persecuted the Chongzhou Sect these days, it is not bad for the people.
Until one evening, a group of four people dressed as disciples of Tianjian Mountain broke into a house and forced the two couples to take out money.
After the two husbands and wives handed over their belongings, they stabbed them in the abdomen with a long sword, and both husband and wife fell, and those disciples of Heavenly Sword Mountain who committed murder also left with peace of mind......
But unfortunately, the knife wounds of the two husbands and wives were not critical, and the wounds were not deep, and they even ran to the hospital by themselves.
Since then, there have been a number of similar incidents, all of which were eyewitnesses.
But the latter ones are even more outrageous, and there are real cases of stealing chickens and dogs and robbing children's candy.
At this moment, the matter of the disciples of Heavenly Sword Mountain killing ordinary people is completely confirmed.
Attacking the Chongzhou Sect, Tianjian Mountain can be said to be clearing the Demon Gate, but what about the civilians? And the people are not all stupid, and some people have raised doubts about the fact that the Divine Machine Pavilion is a demon gate.
For a time, the development of Tianjian Mountain in Chongzhou was resisted and protested by civilians!
And Tianjian Mountain's attack on the common people also touched the bottom line of the local forces in Chongzhou. After all, the relatives of their low-level disciples are all among the common people.
After that, the disciples who were stationed in Tianjian Mountain and were in charge of integration in Chongzhou were also attacked and assassinated by the local sect, and it intensified, and dozens of people in a small station died overnight.
It is impossible for the people of Heavenly Sword Mountain to be in a group all day long, so the people at the grassroots level are panicked all day long, and they also complain about the banditry of Heavenly Sword Mountain and the orders of the higher-ups.
When such a real case occurred, even Tianjian Mountain suspected that there was really something wrong with the disciples, but after several unsuccessful investigations, they also determined that someone had framed them.
Fighting wits and courage with local forces has already made them anxious, but they have to find the framers to prove their innocence.
After all, population is the real precious resource, and they can't afford to lose hearts and minds before they even start.
……
In fact, in the dark place that outsiders can't see, there is a force that took advantage of the chaos to sneak into Chongzhou City - Hehuan Sect earlier.
The Hehuan Sect has an advantage over the Righteous Dao Sect, that is, it is not bound by the rope of the so-called righteousness of the world, that is, it can be blatantly without a bottom line.
No matter what they do, their disciples will not have a psychological burden.
A long time ago, the Hehuan Sect had been rushing to make the Tianjian Mountain uniform, and now it came in handy.
Not only was it framed, the rumor-mongers at the beginning, and the first ones who attacked the disciples of Heavenly Sword Mountain, were also from the Hehuan Sect.
It's just that at this time, they have successfully retired.
……
In the other half, the crown prince Dongfang Jin led the Chongzhou army and was responsible for the imperial court's takeover of many mines under the Shenji Pavilion, which involved the restart of the mines and various scheduling arrangements.
Although there are many capable ministers to help, he is also very busy.
But Dongfang Jin was very proud that he had snatched the power from She Leopard, and he himself was addicted to it, and he never got tired of it.
After all, every prince has an emperor dream, when he was in Kyoto, the emperor was still healthy, although he knew that his son was difficult to become a great weapon, but he also let him actively participate in politics and teach hard.
But every time Dongfang Jin put forward any opinions and policies, most of them would be vetoed by the emperor.
Dongfang Jin didn't think it was his own problem, and there were villains around him, who secretly made things bad, so that Dongfang Jin misunderstood that the emperor was afraid that he would take the throne early and deliberately clamp down.
So the father and son are not as one-minded as they seem.
But Dongfang Jin is a person who has no guts, he doesn't dare to rebel against his father, and he doesn't have that ability, so he just continues to be the prince.
This trip to Chongzhou, without the constraints of his father, made him feel the taste of power.
Although he guessed that he should have at least one grandmaster-level master by his side to protect him, under many means, She Leopard also had the ability to kill him.
It's just that She Bao is not ready to seize power, and now is not the time to kill Dongfang Jinde. And for the sake of Huabei's profits, She Bao didn't want it to die so easily......
……
At this time, in an inn, Xu Xiaoxiao was waiting for She Bao.
Originally, when the war ended and some of the disciples of Tianjian Mountain left, she could also leave, but at that time, she had not yet obtained the antidote, so she chose to stay for the sake of her life.
Although she stayed, her status was not low, and she had just recovered her spirits, but she had no tasks.
Therefore, Xu Xiaoxiao can easily find a place to meet She Leopard when he goes out on the grounds of distraction.
It didn't take long for She Leopard to push the door in.
After She Leopard went straight to the topic, he lit a cigarette and slowly asked Xu Xiaoxiao, "Has anything happened in Tianjian Mountain recently?" ”
Xu Xiaoxiao propped up his tired body and told everything that had happened recently......
"At the beginning, Meng Hu was seriously injured and it was inconvenient to move, so he also stayed, but yesterday Meng Hu woke up, and now the basic movement is no longer a problem."
"In addition, Tianjian Mountain can't find the person who framed us, and some elders proposed to admit it, and then secretly arrested ordinary people who put on Tianjian Mountain's clothes and put on hoods to execute on the street, so as to achieve overall whitewashing......"
She Leopard in the back didn't care too much, at this time he only had the words Meng Hu awakened in his mind!
She Leopard was shocked by this.
He had also heard of Meng Hu's injury, even with the medical technology of modern society, it was a blessing not to die.
He had been sad for a long time before, after all, if Meng Hu died easily, it would be a large loss of flowers.
And now he is not only awake, but even back to action!
She Bao also has a serious understanding of the healing methods of this world.
In addition to internal strength, there are many so-called elixirs, which he didn't care about before, but now it seems that they should have their own uniqueness.
"Then what happened to Meng Hu?" She Leopard Road.
"It's only a matter of time before the injury recovers, but it is said that the meridians and dantian are damaged, and this cannot be reversed, and I am afraid that I will become a waste person in the future." Xu Xiaoxiao said while recalling carefully.
"Moreover, he has been very depressed recently, as if not only because he has become a waste, but also because of his ......" Speaking of this, Xu Xiaoxiao paused, staring at She Bao's face, as if he was hesitating to say something.
She Bao didn't care, "Why? Say yes. ”
"Also because he misses Shen Yiyi very much, it is said that he recited Shen Yiyi's name all day long, and he fell into a demon. I've met him a few times, and he feels like I'm dead, blind, desperate for life......"
Xu Xiaoxiao didn't know what to feel when she said this, after all, although she had no feelings, Meng Hu was also her nominal fiancé.
After thinking about it, Xu Xiaoxiao continued: "Recently, an elder proposed to let me get close to Meng Hu, cultivate a relationship, and help him get out of it, but I haven't agreed ......yet."
……
After getting the information, She Bao let Xu Xiaoxiao leave.
It is said that She Bao's control over Xu Xiaoxiao is the same as Xu Ru's, after all, that golden voice is too easy to be exposed.
……
A few days later, Meng Hu, who was watching the ants on the ground in a daze, suddenly received an invitation from She Leopard......
