Chapter 269: From the Heart
Ling Ze and Chi Tong entered the magnificent church of Anning Dao, and were led all the way to a room that was not very conspicuous, which was naturally the place where the sect leader of Anning Dao was.
"Please come in, you two."
The leader opened the door to the room respectfully, he was obviously used to doing such things.
Ling Ze and Chi Tong walked into the room, this room is not particularly luxurious, but it can also be said to have a unique charm, quite a classical atmosphere, whether it is the decoration of the room or the style of the furniture.
And the man sitting in the center of the room also has some classical beauty meaning.
With long hair hanging behind him, with a gentle smile on his face, exuding a strange affinity, his eyebrows were a little abnormal, Ling Ze almost thought it was a woman at first sight, and she was a peerless beauty.
"You're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
This man's voice was very good, that's right, this was Ling Ze's first reaction after hearing this Anning Dao Master speak, it may be that the magical charm on the other party has played a role, this is definitely not a normal thing.
Like this kind of "soft and soft" and "half-dead" tone of speech, if Ling Ze heard it normally, he would definitely think that this guy was a dead sissy and a sissy.
"Don't be nervous, I don't have any ill will towards you, even if you kill my assistant Berik, but I actually know that that man is not sorry to die."
The Daoist Master of Anning raised his head to look at Ling Ze and Chi Pupil, he could see Chi Pupil's nervousness, because the child had been trying hard to maintain the unintentional state in her heart, but she still occasionally showed some worries.
However, Ling Ze is very calm, because his mindless state is maintained very well, as a long-term user of mind-reading ability, he naturally knows how to avoid being read mind, the so-called "long-term illness becomes a good doctor", "no other hand is familiar".
"Without the permission of others, wantonly peeping into the inner thoughts of others, this is not like a way of hospitality without malice, Lord of the Sect of Anning Dao, please accept your magical powers, otherwise I don't guarantee that everything will develop as you expected."
Ling Ze directly broke the ability of the Anning Dao Master, although these words came out of his mouth, which was quite ironic, but the Anning Dao Sect Master didn't know that he could read minds, because Ling Ze's disguise successfully deceived him, which was the convenience brought by the intelligence advantage.
The Daoist Master of An Ning didn't expect that Ling Ze was also a person who could read minds, so he was caught off guard, and he didn't have any vigilance against Ling Ze's disguise.
"Hehe, sure enough, my foreknowledge tells me that there will be a difficult person coming to me, and if it is not handled well, it may even lead to the disaster of destroying the door for our peaceful path, at first I was not sure which of the two it was, but now it seems that you are right."
After being shocked by Ling Ze's words, the Daoist Master of Anning chose to follow his heart very directly, he decisively relented, and let Ling Ze and Chitong sit down first.
Although he didn't know how Ling Ze could see his mind-reading ability, it was precisely because he didn't know Ling Ze's methods that he didn't even dare to use it secretly, for fear that Ling Ze would find out that he was still using it, and then directly turn his face and lead the situation to the point of no return.
"It seems that your ability to foreknowledge is not so useful, but it is only this level of foreknowledge? There is a huge gap between the ability to predict and the ability to predict. ”
From the words of the Anning Dao Master, Ling Ze quickly figured out the type of this man's prediction ability.
His prediction ability is really a little weak, and the prediction ability of the Anning Taoist Sect Master is more like a risk warning, and he can't even see specific people and things, and there is a big gap between him and the real prediction of the future.
"Forehead ......"
To be honest, Ling Ze's reaction made the Anning Dao Sect Master a little unsure of how to pick it up, because for him, it was really the first time he had encountered someone like Ling Ze, and the usual people who knew that he had the ability to predict were shocked one by one, shocking him as a celestial.
Like Ling Ze, he felt that his prediction ability was weak, this was really the first time he had encountered it in so many years, this little brother didn't play cards according to common sense!
"I'll say it bluntly if I have something to say, and it saves you from reading your mind, you should like it too, after all, peeking into other people's hearts, don't you just want to see the other party's true thoughts?"
Ling Ze didn't wait for the somewhat embarrassed Anning Dao Master to continue to speak, he directly maintained his output, and continued to control the rhythm of communication, this Anning Dao Master was too evil, always exuding a strange charm, in order to prevent being disturbed by this strange charm, Ling Ze felt that it was better to finish things quickly and stay away from him.
On the other hand, the red pupil on the side was concentrating on maintaining a state of indifference, it seemed that he was not affected by this peaceful Taoist master, Ling Ze suspected that the red pupil didn't even look at the guy in front of him, for fear that he would be read by the other party.
"Okay, you might as well be straight."
The Taoist Master of Anning was choked by Ling Ze again and again, he swallowed the words that reached his throat and swallowed them again, he originally wanted to play tricks with Ling Ze for a while, but in this regard, Ling Ze is also an old qualification, how could he be a disgusting person who is forced to talk here.
"I don't know if you know my intentions, then I'll just say it, I hope you can cooperate with our Northwest Army, your ultimate goal is an armed uprising, and we have accumulated a lot of strength in the Northwest, if the two of us join forces, we will definitely be able to compete with the Empire, what do you think of this proposal?"
Ling Ze went straight to the point and said the purpose of his coming here, and the reaction of the Anning Dao Sect Master was not surprised.
"I know your intentions, I've been thinking about this for the past few days, your strength is very strong, my foresight has told me, every time I want to rebel against you, I will feel the same calamity as every time I want an armed uprising, and you at least have the strength to compete with the empire."
The words of the Daoist Master of An Ning revealed some information to Ling Ze, this guy's prediction ability seemed to have been touched several days in advance, otherwise this guy would not have been able to think for several days.
"So what was the decision you made?"
Ling Ze continued to ask, he knew that the other party was a smart person, so he would definitely not make a wrong decision.
"Actually, I don't have a choice, do I? If no matter what, I can't escape the sanction of fate, then why don't I choose that option that can help me indirectly achieve my goal? You're going to overthrow the Empire, aren't you? ”
Being pressed by Ling Ze step by step, asking him to give an answer quickly, the Daoist Master of Anning was very helpless, but in a few days, he had deduced various possibilities, and in the end, he was able to get an ending that satisfied him temporarily, which was the choice he had made so far.
"Of course, we will overthrow the Empire, with the expectations of many of us, this rotten Empire."
Ling Ze laughed, he stretched out his hand and shook the Anning Dao Master, and gave the other party a very firm answer, and after hearing this answer, the somewhat reluctant Anning Dao Master also put down his snack a little.
"How do you need us to cooperate with your actions? Now that you all have the strength to fight the Empire, why do you go out of your way to woo us? ”
Under the pressure brought by Ling Ze, although the Anning Dao Sect Master chose to obey Ling Ze's hegemonic rule from the heart, he did not particularly understand Ling Ze's reason for doing so, after all, according to his prediction, the gap between the Northwest Army and the Empire should not be large.
"You misunderstood, although we can all destroy you, but it is not because we are as strong as the empire, but because your strength is too weak, and among the four major forces existing in the empire, you are undoubtedly the weakest in terms of hard power."
Ling Ze's words could be said to be unceremoniously, and the Anning Dao Master, who was scolded in person, only trembled at the corners of his mouth, and he didn't refute anything, because he realized that this was an indisputable fact, after all, they didn't even have an emperor envoy now, and the only one before had been resolved.
That's right, this Tranquility Dao Master is aware of the existence of that guy in Holimaka, and this is the reason why he will continue to keep that guy in Burik, first, there is an emperor envoy under Berik, and he is not completely sure if he wants to get rid of him, and second, this emperor envoy can also become the help of their Tranquility Dao in disguise.
It's a pity that the Anning Dao Master also overestimated the strength of that Hollymarca, but judging from his ability to predict the success rate of the action in advance, even that Hollimaka, with the strength at hand of this guy, may not be able to solve it at all.
"On the side of the revolutionary army in the south, there are also a lot of emperors, they can oppose the empire with a clear banner, but they can still be wiped out without being exterminated, which shows that their strength is much stronger than the development of our two families, but in terms of peak combat power, they do not have an advantage, and no matter how many people there are, they can't turn the tide of the war."
On Ling Ze's side of the Northwest Army, they have a peak combat power like him, and they can fight against Estes and Bude, but because of the geographical location and the size of the territory, the population and military strength are insufficient, and the empire has such a huge territory, so it can't just rely on Ling Ze to kill and occupy it all the way, right?
The army is a must, including the talents who will be responsible for managing the entire empire in the future, and of course, this can be considered after the empire is unified.
However, if you want to unify the entire empire, a large number of troops is indispensable, and after integrating An Ningdao, which has a huge influence in the north, Ling Ze's northwest army will not lack population and soldiers.
"Your plans for an armed uprising can be put on hold, Beric's death will definitely attract the attention of the minister, and any change in your behavior may provoke the minister, and it will be a bit bad if he directly sends Boud or Estes to clean you up."
What Ling Ze said, in fact, the leader of the Anning Dao understood it, so this guy said very well that he would arrange for the armed forces in Anning Dao to withdraw to the northwest as soon as possible and accept the comprehensive transformation of the northwest, and he was only responsible for helping the Northwest Army to "recruit" in the entire north.
Although Ling Ze himself felt that it was very unlikely that the minister would deal with Anning Dao, after all, if he wanted to deal with Anning Dao, it would definitely plunge the north into chaos, which was not what the minister wanted to see, in his opinion, these guys in Anning Dao couldn't make any big waves, they just needed to take care of it a little and ensure that there was no chaos.
But that was also a big possibility, and looking at the reaction of this Anning Dao Master, Ling Ze was not sure if this guy really knew that kind of situation would happen, or if he simply followed his orders to do so.
Anyway, in short, Ling Ze's purpose of coming to this Anning Taoist Master has indeed been achieved, and the process is much simpler than he thought, and sure enough, this kind of person who is good at doing "brain supplement" by himself is much easier to deal with than the kind of person who doesn't know how many pounds and taels he has.
As long as this Anning Dao Master does not have the ability to predict, it is impossible for Ling Ze to take him down so simply by talking today, and absorb Anning Dao into the Northwest Army in disguise, after all, the momentum on the face of Anning Dao is not comparable to the silent Northwest Army.
"My name is Aurelian, and I will ask for a lot of advice in the future."
After agreeing on the general matters, the Anning Dao Sect Master finally had the opportunity to introduce himself, but Ling Ze obviously didn't care what his name was.
"After the matter is done, I will report to Longxi County, and then we will discuss the future development of your Anning Dao, as well as the problems related to publicity."
After Ling Ze told Aurelian his identity and name, he then made arrangements for him, and Ling Ze had some new ideas about the way of existence in the future, but the specific implementation still needs to be carefully polished.
Ling Ze intends to deify himself like a "holy spirit" in the empire, and he plans to let the teachings of the Tao of Tranquility in the future connect the so-called "gods" and those concepts beyond common sense to him and point to him.
Anyway, he has already mastered the "truth", even if he is regarded as a "god", it is not surprising, and who said that he has already defeated a "god"?
This kind of thinking is actually largely inspired by the "Holy Spirit", that guy's religious immortality, the immortal ability of the "Holy Spirit" still makes Ling Ze a little greedy.
