Chapter 037: Black Hand

Inside the mourning hall.

"I didn't expect this old guy to die in front of our house."

An old eunuch was full of emotion.

He is an old eunuch who is drunk.

Ye Cheng had seen this old eunuch once in the arsenal of King Jing's Mansion.

Today is the second time.

I haven't seen him for three years, and this old eunuch is even older.

However, he still had a wine gourd hanging from his waist, and there was also a faint smell of wine coming out of his body.

Ye Cheng saluted respectfully.

"Your godfather mentioned you to our family, if you have anything in the future, you can come to our family. What our family promised, as long as they are alive, they will definitely not break their promises. ”

The old eunuch glanced at Ye Cheng and said with a smile.

Then he turned and walked away.

"Thank you, old man."

Ye Cheng hurriedly sent it off.

Although he had already achieved the innate realm and did not need the help of this old eunuch, he still had respect.

Among all the big eunuchs who have come, maybe this drunkard old eunuch really mourns Zhao Yinglian.

When the old eunuch left, the mourning hall became quiet again.

At this point in time, there shouldn't be no one coming.

Those who should have come have already come.

.....

Dead.

The mourning hall is brightly lit.

The servants have gone to rest.

Only Ye Cheng stayed by the coffin, adding paper money to the brazier from time to time.

For an innate martial artist like him, delaying for a few days without sleeping will not hinder anything, at most, he will not be able to cultivate.

Suddenly, Ye Cheng raised his head and looked out of the lobby.

Outside, there are two rows of lanterns, windless and automatic, crumbling.

A figure emerged from the darkness like a ghost.

Ye Cheng frowned slightly, someone actually came to the mourning hall to disturb the resting souls?

If you don't come early, you won't come late.

It's right now.

Soon, the figure revealed its true face, and it was a tall masked man, who walked silently, like a ghost.

But Ye Cheng felt an invisible qi lock on him.

"Who is Your Excellency, coming here late at night, don't you know that it is very rude to disturb the peace of the soul?"

Ye Cheng didn't get up, just sat like this, and said indifferently.

"Little guy, hand over that spiritual object, and the old man will take your life."

The black shadow stood outside the main hall, and under the illumination of the light, it was very oppressive.

His voice was hoarse and old, and his eyes were glowing green, chilling.

Coming for the spirits?

Ye Cheng frowned, his godfather asked for a spiritual object for him, and there should be few people who know about it.

In other words, this person could be from the palace?

But it's not right, if it were those big eunuchs, there was no need to seize that spiritual object, after all, the spiritual object was useless to them.

Only those eunuchs who have attained the Great Perfection of the Day after Tomorrow, but are not qualified to obtain spiritual objects, will be desperate for spiritual objects.

"It seems that someone in the palace wants me to die, so he leaked the spiritual object."

Ye Cheng knew it.

A spiritual object is not worth the hands of those great eunuchs.

"What if I say no?"

Ye Cheng said softly.

"Haha, then it's up to you."

The black shadow let out a cruel smile, and suddenly moved, like a night owl, and pounced on Ye Cheng in the mourning hall, grabbing it in the air, and the rolling true qi was permeated.

But the next moment, his body stopped in mid-air, and I don't know when, a slender and white palm had already grabbed his throat.

Goo-goo...

The masked man's eyes widened, and a strange sound came out of his throat.

Although he struggled desperately, Ye Cheng's innate true qi wrapped around his body like a spiritual snake, piercing into the big points around his body, making him unable to resist at all.

He never thought that this young eunuch, who looked harmless to humans and animals, turned out to be an innate martial artist.

Said to be the acquired level?

It's only been a little over two years, how can it be an innate martial artist?

Even if you are a genius, it is impossible for you to cross a great realm in more than two years, right?

Ye Cheng just carried the masked man and entered the house without making much movement.

in the house.

The man had been thrown to the ground, and the face veils had been removed.

Forty or fifty years old.

Ye Cheng didn't know him.

However, he had already sensed that this man was a eunuch.

It is indeed from the palace.

"Tell me, who sent you?"

Ye Cheng asked indifferently.

The middle-aged eunuch sat on the ground and said nothing.

"Have you ever heard of a life and death sticker?"

Ye Cheng chuckled.

Sure enough, the middle-aged eunuch trembled, and his face showed a look of horror.

Life and death stickers are a very famous martial art in the Taiwu Palace.

It's just that cultivation is extremely difficult.

It is said that this martial art was created by an innate old eunuch in the history of the Taiwu Hall to interrogate prisoners on the basis of the Cold Shadow Palm.

Once a life and death sticker is planted in the human body, it is manipulated,

can make life worse than death.

If it is the life and death sticker of the cultivation of the acquired martial artist, he is not afraid.

But Ye Cheng is an innate martial artist, if he really practiced life and death, then he would never be able to bear it.

"Even if I did, I would definitely die."

The middle-aged eunuch finally spoke.

His voice was a bit rough, not like an ordinary eunuch.

"Not to mention, not only will you die now, but you will die very miserably."

Ye Cheng's fingers rubbed, and a touch of ice crystals condensed on the tips of his fingers, glowing with a cold glow.

The middle-aged eunuch's forehead was covered with sweat, and he swallowed his saliva before he said, "Grandpa Ye, if I say it, can you let me go?" ”

As long as Ye Cheng can let him go, he will immediately stay away from Yujing and remain incognito.

"Of course, I, Ye Cheng, have always said the same."

Ye Cheng said indifferently.

"Gonggong Ye, it was Liu Jin, the eunuch in charge of the Command of the Army, who told me that Manager Zhao once asked for a spiritual object from His Majesty, and with the physical state of Manager Zhao, there is definitely no need for a spiritual object, it must be prepared for you, Manager Zhao is still alive, I don't dare to take it, so I took advantage of tonight to make a move."

The middle-aged eunuch hurriedly said.

Although he cultivated to attain the Great Perfection of the Day After Tomorrow, he had no background in the palace and had made mistakes, so he was not eligible for spiritual rewards.

After getting the news of the spiritual object, he naturally couldn't care about it so much.

As long as he becomes an innate martial artist, his status in the palace will be able to rise in a straight line.

"Is that him?"

Ye Cheng frowned.

He served in the Military Division for a period of time, and he was also familiar with Liu Jin.

This person seems to be very kind and easy to talk, but he actually wants to harm himself?

No, this person's identity and status are not enough to know about spiritual things, there must be someone behind it.

"Do you know what Liu Jin's background is?"

Ye Cheng stared at the middle-aged eunuch and asked in a cold voice.

This middle-aged eunuch has been in the Taiwu Hall for so long, and he must be able to know many things that he doesn't understand.

"Father-in-law Ye, Liu Jin is the godson of the current eunuch Gao Gonggong, the commander of the Taiwu Palace."

The middle-aged eunuch said honestly.

Ye Cheng immediately understood, it turned out that this dog eunuch was playing ghosts.

He arranged for Wei Ran to enter the East Palace before, and leaked spiritual objects, definitely wanting to put himself to death.

If he is really just an ordinary acquired martial artist, he is definitely not the opponent of this middle-aged eunuch, once this middle-aged eunuch gets a spiritual object, will he still have a way to live?

No way.

Therefore, the ultimate goal of this admiral eunuch Gao Yuan is to kill himself so that Wei Ran can ascend to the throne.

"What a calculation."

Ye Cheng showed a sneer.

It's a pity that this Gao Yuan has made a lot of calculations, but he miscalculated that he is not an ordinary acquired martial artist, but has become an innate martial artist.
