Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Holy Lord
Ye Zhichu is a courtier of the Qianguo Kingdom, and it is understandable that he wants to take action against himself, but what about the lord behind Ye Zhichu?
Who was he, why did he kill himself, and for what purpose?
Although Xiao Chen knows the water between the four countries. It was very deep, but as he came into contact with more things, Xiao Chen became more and more afraid.
In the dim hall, four huge black stone pillars can be faintly seen, and four dim oil lamps are lit on the stone pillars, adding a little brilliance to the main hall.
Above the main seat, a figure shrouded in black robes sat quietly.
If you look closely, you will find that on both sides of the black-robed man, there are still two rows of people standing. They were young and old, and they had a murderous black scorpion carved on their faces or hands.
However, at this time, they all bowed their heads to the black-robed man with great respect, and it was obvious that the status of the black-robed man was far above everyone.
The black-robed man's wrinkled fingers tapped lightly on the black stone seat, looking a little pleasant.
After a while, the black-robed man slowly spoke: "What happened to the Wei State's affairs?" ”
The voice of the black-robed man seemed to be very vicissitudes, obviously an old man, but his tone was not fierce, but with a touch of warmth, which made people feel like a spring breeze.
If you don't look at the scene in front of you, you will definitely feel that the old man in the black robe is a kind old man.
The response to the black-robed old man was a middle-aged man with a slight bow on his back, and the man bowed lightly and said: "Back to the Holy Lord, when I received the Holy Lord's order, I immediately sent three hundred people to secretly lurk in Yangnan, plus Ye Zhichu's people, I think it should be nine out of ten, and the Holy Lord can rest assured." ”
"Oh?" The black-robed old man said softly, "Really? ”
As if he sensed that the Holy Lord was not interesting, the man lowered his head again and said: "Xiao Chen is just a thousand guards, and there are not many masters around him, and the ones we sent are all the elites of our subordinates, so there should be no problem......
Shaking his head, the black-robed old man said, "Then do you know that there is a master next to Xiao Chen who has almost stepped into the realm of a grandmaster?" Do you know that Xiao Chen still has people like Li Luo, the king of Huainan? ”
The man raised his head suddenly, and said with a look of surprise: "Holy Lord, the Wei Kingdom, the Qian Kingdom, and the number of people dispatched by us are nearly five thousand, there shouldn't be any mistakes, right?" ”
"It should be ......" The Holy Lord groaned and muttered: "The former Li Luo grew up in your should, if you didn't have so many shoulds, then Li Luo at this time was already a corpse, and he wouldn't have swaggered in the Qianguo." ”
"Besides, you don't know how strong a martial artist is when he cultivates to the extreme, and the number of people who are strong at the top of the Sanhua Gathering is just a simple number in their eyes."
Only then did the middle-aged man show a panicked look and said, "Holy Lord, what should we do now?" ”
The black-robed old man shook his head and said, "Don't worry, I have secretly sent a guard a long time ago, with him, I don't think anything will go wrong, the only thing I am worried about now is Li Luo, who has been calm as usual." ”
Beside the middle-aged man, a strong man spoke up: "If you want me to say, not only kill Xiao Chen, let's just kill it together with Li Luo, he has always been bad for the Holy Lord." ”
The Holy Lord, who had always been indifferent, stood up abruptly and shouted angrily: "I said it, I didn't kill Li Luo at the beginning, and now I am not allowed to touch half of Li Luo's hair. He is a key chess piece in my mess up the world. ”
"Then what if he really helps Xiao Chen?" The strong man asked puzzled.
The Holy Lord muttered, "Then it depends on whether Xiao Chen's fate is great, or if we are more prepared." ”
……
On the empty street, Xiao Chen was riding on the back of a black wind horse, covered in sweat.
In front of Xiao Chen, Ke Yongchang held a long sword and said a little jokingly: "Run, why don't you run?" ”
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, Xiao Chen suddenly laughed and said: "I just said that the gentleman's sword martial arts are unparalleled, this speed is actually faster than the black wind, do you know what the origin of this black wind is?" ”
Ke Yongchang looked at Xiao Chen with a winning face, like a cat enjoying a mouse's clumsy performance.
Xiao Chen continued: "This is a rare famous horse in the world, the best among the sweat and blood horses, also known as the heavenly horse, but it can travel thousands of miles a day, you said that you can catch up with the black wind at such a fast speed, how strong should the martial arts be?" ”
"This can't help but make the kid admire, the gentleman's sword is not only noble, but also has excellent martial arts."
Xiao Chen's praise obviously made Ke Yongchang extremely useful, and a touch of smugness flashed in his eyes, but soon Ke Yongchang said coldly: "After the compliment, then it's time to die." ”
As he spoke, Ke Yongchang was ready to make a move.
Facing a true self powerhouse, Xiao Chen knew that he didn't have the slightest power to resist, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Wait, I still have something to say!" ”
Ke Yongchang said impatiently: "If there is a fart, release it quickly." ”
With a long sigh, Xiao Chen said: "I know that Senior Ke cares about the general trend of the world, and it is also because of the poor virtue of this king that the senior wants to kill me." ”
"But after this incident, this king also understood a truth, to be a man must be virtuous."
"I know that I will definitely die today, but I really don't want to see my predecessor guilty of murder, so I have a better suggestion, I don't know if my predecessor would like to hear it."
Although he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Xiao Chen's gourd, Ke Yongchang still snorted coldly and said, "Let's talk about it." ”
Xiao Chen said with a painful face: "This king's misconduct, it is all because there is no master like my predecessor to guide me, I think, if my predecessor is willing to give me another chance, I am willing to serve my predecessor as my Yong'an military advisor, and take charge of my Yong'an military and affairs." ”
"From now on, Yong'an is owned by you and me!"
Hearing this, even Ke Yongchang, who was calm and calm, showed a look of excitement in his eyes.
After bowing his head and pondering for a moment, Ke Yong said in a long and deep voice: "What you said is true? ”
Seeing that there might be hope for survival, Xiao Chen hurriedly nodded and said: "Xiao Chen's words come from the bottom of my heart, as long as the seniors agree, I will give the order immediately." ”
With a flicker of his eyes, Ke Yongchang's eyes reappeared with a fierce color, and he said with a smile: "I admit it, the conditions you said are very tempting, but unfortunately, if I really agree to you, wouldn't it be an aid to abuse, and I will not be able to gain a foothold in the rivers and lakes in the future in the name of a gentleman's sword." ”
"I think, I still killed you, you know, there are many people in the Wei Kingdom who hate what you did, kill you, I can get everything I want, and besides, I am still the righteous gentleman's sword."
The corners of Xiao Chen's mouth twitched, this Ke Yongchang is really a sanctimonious hypocrite, no wonder Zhang Gu looks down on him.
But in the face of Ke Yongchang, whose killing intent has been decided, Xiao Chen is helpless.
Just when Xiao Chen was in a dilemma, a cold whisper suddenly came from Xiao Chen's ear: "Lord Wang, leave this person to me to deal with!" ”
