Volume 1: Shine on the Mountains and Rivers Chapter 119 Let's go to the feast
"There is no good feast!"
Xu Liuqing stared at the teacup in his hand and shook his head slightly.
Anyone can see that the purpose of the group of old men in the county government is definitely not so simple, it is really just a dinner.
If it is negotiated, it will naturally be a good feast, with all kinds of wine and delicacies, if it is not negotiated, I am afraid it will become a Hongmen banquet.
Ji Yuan can be sure that once Qian Nishang refuses to retreat and concedes the interests that satisfy the other party, this group of people will really dare to do it directly.
Anyway, now Qianyu City is in chaos, and it has been completely sealed down, if the head of the Qian family encounters an accident, he can push everything on Shan Zeye Xiu.
Even he seriously suspected that these people chose to do it at this moment, in addition to the fact that there were not many opportunities, it also had a lot to do with Chen Lao leaving Qian Nishang's side.
At this juncture, Chen Lao suddenly disappeared from the city, who knows what he was doing, but no matter what it was for, it was not a good thing for them.
And the disappearance of Chen Lao, a martial artist in the Three Realms, is not all bad, at least it gives all the forces in the county government the confidence to directly lift the table.
With only Qian Nishang and a Second Realm cultivator, they really have to be determined to do it, even if they have one or two more helpers from the same realm, it is useless.
As soon as he thought of this, Ji Yuan also reacted, at tonight's banquet, the other party probably didn't think of talking straight to the point, but at the beginning, the idea was to take the opportunity to make trouble.
"I'm afraid these people didn't plan to let the owner leave safely in the first place."
He snorted coldly, having already guessed what those people were thinking.
He wasn't the only one, everyone in the room had already thought of this, and their faces were more gloomy and solemn than the other.
However, this is not a conspiracy, but a real conspiracy, even if they know that there is no good banquet, they can only go to the banquet with their heads.
The other party did this, and it was clear that if he didn't come, he would completely tear his face, and he wouldn't be able to earn benefits if he didn't make any benefits, but Qian Nishang also had no money.
But if you really go, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out safely, so I really go in vertically and come out horizontally.
"I heard that there is a wanted mountain and wild cultivator in the nearby township, and Lord Xu has already rushed over early in the morning."
Qian Nishang said with a gloomy face.
Although this excuse is full of mistakes and omissions, Xu Lin, as the knife holder of the Mingjian Division, even if he knew that it was a plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, he had to go to verify it before there was conclusive evidence.
It's just that in this way, there are fewer people who can deter people, and those guys are even more unscrupulous.
"I must go, otherwise the previous efforts will be in vain, and the hundreds of thousands of people in the city will probably suffer in vain."
She sighed slowly.
If it's just her, it's easy to do, if you don't go, you don't go, you have the ability to kill the door, and you don't know if you live or die.
However, it is clear that the opposite side is to threaten hundreds of thousands of people, and once the plague spreads uncontrollably, not only a county town, but even all cities and towns within a radius of hundreds of miles will be seriously impacted.
At that time, I don't know how many people will suffer from unjustified disasters and thus lose their lives!
Not to mention anything else, the lives of these hundreds of thousands of people alone will be a monstrous sin, even if the Jindan monk who is in charge of one side is provoked, he will not be able to escape the end of being burned by karmic fire.
"Aren't those people afraid of karmic burning?"
As soon as he heard the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, Guo Tao couldn't help but ask.
However, when a few people heard this, they just shook their heads, and finally Xu Liuqing said in a deep voice: "With the identity of those people, it is not difficult to know some secret methods to transfer sins or let people die instead." ”
It is difficult to do good, but easy to do evil.
It's not easy to do good, but it's not hard to do bad.
Not to mention the powerful sects and factions, even some mountain and wild cultivators have one or two special secret methods in their hands, which can transfer the imminent sins as much as possible, or make a fake body for death to bear the sins.
Since these people dare to use hundreds of thousands of people as bargaining chips for interests, then (this chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 119: Let's Go to the Feast
Naturally, they have made sufficient preparations so that the sins that will fall from heaven and earth in the future will not fall on them.
At the very least, it can reduce the sin to the extent that it is enough to bear it.
And as long as you don't get burned by karma on the spot, there are naturally countless ways to wash away this sin in the future.
"There are a total of thirteen forces, including Li Wenqing of the county guard."
Liu Ruyan groaned: "There are five Second Realms on the bright side, and three of them are martial artists. ”
As for the monks and martial artists in the first realm, there are as many as twenty, most of them are martial artists, and only a few are monks.
On the other hand, on Ming Xinxuan's side, except for Wu Shan, Feng Xiaoxiao's senior brothers and sisters who didn't know how to fight, and the old Danshi Cui Long, there were only five first-realm guards left.
And those who have the cultivation of the second realm are only Qian Nishang and the old woman beside her.
If someone goes to the banquet at this point, once they fight, they will definitely not be pleased, not to mention that the other party is in secret, and it is definitely not just this bit of power on the surface.
In any case, they are the spokesmen of various forces in the county town, how can they not arrange enough escort forces?
"Now Chen Lao has not returned, and he is just a sheep in the mouth of a tiger."
Ji Yuan's complexion at this time was also a little ugly.
In this situation, only by bringing Zhao Yuansong and Song He and his wife can he have a certain certainty that he will be able to retreat peacefully at tonight's banquet.
However, after all, this matter has nothing to do with the three of them, and he can't make decisions for several people on his own.
"Well, I'll go with you for tonight's feast."
He sighed, looking somewhat helpless.
Originally, according to his temperament, this kind of thing naturally had to be kept away, and he would never let himself be involved in any cause and effect.
But on the one hand, he couldn't sit idly by and watch the county where he had lived for more than ten years be ruined by people, and tens of thousands of people died.
On the other hand, I don't want this owner to be killed not long after they met.
After all, not only has the promised benefits not been given, but a few days ago, a transaction worth more than one million taels of silver, has not yet been handed down.
Therefore, he can't sit idly by and watch the other party encounter danger.
"Don't go."
However, Qian Nishang shook her head and said, "I know that you are not small, but tonight's murder is auspicious, there is no need for you to follow me to take risks." ”
She looked deep on her face, and added after a moment: "Don't worry, even if I can't come back alive tonight, Elder Chen will send the things traded between you and me to you exactly as they were." ”
“……”
Ji Yuan hesitated slightly, to be honest, he was a little moved at the moment.
But he still shook his head, saying that he must accompany him tonight, and it has little to do with whether or not there is that transaction.
And the firmness in his eyes also made Qian Nishang, the old woman behind him, and Xu Liuqing, who was sitting on the side, look moved, and a touch of admiration couldn't help but rise in his heart.
Only Liu Ruyan and Guo Tao couldn't help twitching the corners of their mouths a few times when no one saw them.
At that moment, Ji Yuan got up to say goodbye, claiming that there were some things that needed to be prepared, and then took Guo Tao downstairs and went straight to Ming Xinxuan's backyard.
"That jade pendant that can summon elders outside the city, can you lend it to me for the time being?"
He came to Jiang He and said straight to the point.
Hearing this, the latter did not hesitate for half a minute, and directly took out a jade pendant from his arms, and then handed it out.
This piece of jade pendant is cyan all over, and there are not too many patterns on it, it is only simply carved, but as soon as it is put into the hand, you can feel a pure mana.
Although there was only a trace of this mana, it contained an extremely heavy sense of oppression, and it was obviously from the Three Realms cultivators.
Even the person who injected this mana into the jade pendant was at least a mid-to-late stage cultivator in the Three Realms.
"Is there any danger?"
Jiang He asked out loud.
Sighing silently, Ji Yuan saw that there were no outsiders left and right, so he whispered about tonight's events and the seriousness of it.
After a long time, the faces of the group of people became extremely solemn, (this chapter is not finished!) )
Chapter 119: Let's Go to the Feast
Among them, Liao Qiming wanted to speak several times and stopped, and in the end he could only suppress the thoughts in his heart.
There is no other reason, with this bit of strength, if you really follow the past, not only will it not help you at all, but it will not even become a burden.
Even Jiang He gave up such an idea with a helpless face after thinking about it, although he was also a realm cultivator, but the cultivation in the early stage of enlightenment was also not of much help.
At tonight's banquet, ordinary monks in the late stage of the Enlightenment Realm will be reduced to foils, and those who can really play a role must at least have the cultivation of the second realm.
"If something is wrong, you must crush the jade pendant immediately!"
In the end, he could only say so solemnly.
In both public and private, Jiang He didn't want Ji Yuan to encounter any danger, and he even had to summon the elders of the Three Realms who stayed outside the city and came from the Nine Xuanmen at this time.
"Don't worry, I'm not going to put myself in danger."
Ji Yuan laughed.
It's just this sentence, but no one present believes it, in the chaos a month ago, he clearly stood in front of anyone else, and ran wherever there was danger.
It's just that a few people can only hope that this time he can "talk the talk".
"You must be careful, you are extremely important to the Nine Xuanmen!"
Jiang He thought about it and added: "It's more important to us!" ”
Hearing this, Ji Yuan smiled knowingly, raised his fist and gently smashed it on Jiang He's shoulder.
He suddenly remembered that from a previous casual conversation, he learned that the young man in front of him was a few months younger than him.
"Don't worry, you will."
He nodded solemnly, said a few more words, and then turned to leave.
It's just that this time he didn't bring anyone, and he went to the county government with Qian Nishang alone to attend the banquet.
After all, this trip is a blessing and a curse, even if there is a jade pendant in his hand, which can summon the elders of the three realms of Jiuxuanmen, but if it is crushed late, it is still the same life-threatening worry.
And Jiuxuanmen has always had nothing to do with this matter, and he can't summon that elder when nothing happens.
After all, doing so is tantamount to dragging Jiuxuanmen into the water, which is contrary to the truth in his heart.
It's just that Ji Yuan didn't know that after he boarded the carriage and left with Qian Nishang and the old woman, one of them also left Mingxinxuan and rushed towards Xuantianguan with all his might.
Although they have only been together for more than a month, Jiang He still knows a little bit, knowing that if it is not a matter of life and death, he will never easily crush the jade pendant, and when Xuantian Temple has not returned, he will involve the Nine Xuanmen.
