Capital.

The Divine Power Marquis Mansion, everyone gathered together,

This night was not peaceful, the Nine Great Guan Sword Dragon roared and died of exhaustion, the Red-Sleeved Shenni won with his life, and the many remaining masters were scattered.

The situation in the rivers and lakes has changed so much, and even Zhuge Shenhou has admitted defeat.

On both sides of the long hall, the vermilion chairs were neatly placed, and the big people on the rivers and lakes had already sat down, some were restless, some were sitting precariously, and some were silent.

The courtyard of the Hou Mansion is even more crowded with all kinds of Jianghu forces.

Suddenly, the crowd parted like a tide, and a burly figure strode forward, straight into the hall, and sat on the upper seat.

As soon as Chen Zhuo sat down, Dao Nanshen hurriedly stepped forward to report, "Master Hou, Zhuge Shenhou's people took advantage of the chaos to rescue Zhao Ji, but they didn't hurt anyone, they only used drugs to stun the people we arranged." ”

The joy on everyone's faces didn't last long, and this was shocked again.

Lei Zhanteng got up, his gray eyebrows twisted, he didn't want to see this great prospect come to fruition, if Zhao Ji didn't die, and there was Zhuge Shenhou to help, these generals and courtiers would turn against each other sooner or later, and the situation would turn around.

said that he was about to order everyone to go after him, but he saw that Chen Zhuo did not have the slightest abnormality, sitting firmly on the Taishi chair, his heart was inexplicably sudden, and he only waited for the two tricks in his eye socket to turn around twice, and then asked uncertainly, "Don't chase?" ”

Chen Zhuo glanced at him, took a sip of the hot tea on the side, and waited for him to swallow before he said casually: "He was originally here for Zhao Ji, didn't he already say it very clearly last night." ”

What did you say last night?

A group of people looked at each other.

Chen Zhuo glanced at the reactions of everyone in the hall, and said softly: "He said that he believes that I am really for the world, otherwise why do you think I am just talking to them, instead of fighting for life and death." ”

Qi Shaoshang sat aside, thought for a moment, and suddenly understood, "Mr. Zhuge is using the lives of our people to make a deal with you in exchange for Zhao Ji." ”

Chen Zhuo said eloquently, "The master of the Fengyun Dart Game has come out, plus the "time-honored" Wen family, a total of more than 500 elites, all of whom are good players in the world, and they have already infiltrated the capital in advance...... Outside the Beijing Division, there are also all parties in the green forest and white road who also rushed to help when they heard the wind, and they really wanted to move seriously. ”

Mingli's methods are easy to deal with, but with the "Wen family" headed by Wen Wan, these ruthless hands who are good at poisoning kill people in the shadowless and invisible, and they can't be prevented.

Chen Zhuo didn't pay attention to it, but the rest of these people couldn't be sure.

"And Zhuge Zheng, didn't I say it, he is loyal and patriotic, and the old prince has been rescued, how can he let Zhao Ji be trapped in the forbidden palace."

Zhu Yueming smiled dryly: "Master Hou, just let them save people like this, will there be trouble?" ”

Chen Zhuo held the teacup, blew the foam on it, and his eyes were complicated, "No, how could it be, after this discussion, they have no chance of winning, two of the five masters died, Zhuge Zheng I will only arrange the father and son in a place where no one can find it, enjoy their old age in peace, and do their duties as a courtier, and ...... Zhuge Shenhou is also dying. ”

His words were astonishing, and everyone was stunned at first, and then in an uproar.

But Chen Zhuo did not say why.

Now that Zhao Ji has been rescued, Zhuge Shenhou has no worries, last night this person said that he was frightened by the complete face of the air, that is, he intended to find a battle, and now he is worried about getting rid of it, and he is unwilling to enter the court as an official, and when Zhao Ji is settled, the father and son should also leave for the north.

If you go, you will surely die.

It is true that this person is loyal to the king and patriotic, but the king is in front and the country is behind, and what he does is the result of perseverance, not heinousness.

It's a pity that although he proposed to sit on the ground and avoid the battle of life and death, Long Fangxiao and the Red Sleeve Shenni still died.

Long Fangxiao's death he can still think clearly, the wind and cloud dart bureau is too powerful, and now that the leader is dead, the people below will not dare to have two hearts, and they will follow the words to enter the court, but the death of the red-sleeved god is ...... I guess I don't want to lose.

The two sides in this battle are incompatible, but it is the transfer of power between the old and new generations.

He is the biggest beneficiary.

In the same way, the Yan madmen and the Jiang brothers will immediately leave for the south, and even the Jingshi will not dare to enter again.

It is only because of the northern martial arts, black and white, that are now all under the "Shenzhou League".

Counting it up, Zhuge Zheng and I pushed Chen Zhuo in disguise to stabilize his strength.

He put down the teacup, got up and said to Qi Shaoshang: "If you are free, go to the Fengyun Dart Bureau and Xiaohanshan Temple to pay tribute to me." ”

When he walked to the door, Chen Zhuo turned his head and paused his gaze in the air, swept everyone in the hall one by one, and said in a flat tone: "A month later, it is the day of the alliance, and the heroes will be scattered!! ”

The calm words seemed to have a killing sound.

It's finally the day.

Everyone was in good spirits and got up.

"Yes!"

……

In the next few days, there were several heavy snowfalls in Beijing, and the weather became colder and colder day by day.

And there are more and more rumors on the rivers and lakes.

Bianjing is still prosperous, the snow is flying, Chen Zhuo is wearing a plain green shirt, strolling with an umbrella, Zhao Shirong under the umbrella is looking around curiously, looking at everything around, sometimes tasting all kinds of snacks on the street, sometimes singing two small songs, turning the fox fur cloak behind him, fresh and tight.

The two walked through the bitter water shop, walked through the sweet water lane, shuttled through the many restaurants, turned around the restaurants, and finally stopped in front of a carved beam and painted building, gorgeous and exquisite alum building.

Different from those Goolan tile shops that need to be greeted by the old bustard turtle, the people who come and go here are either the princes and grandsons, or the sons of the family, or the scholars with thin and famous names.

It is crowded and crowded.

The reason why this is the case is that there is a peerless woman who is beautiful and captivating the country and the city.

His name is Master Li.

It's just that as soon as the two of them came, those sons of the family who were originally waiting outside and couldn't wait for them had bright eyes, and looked straight at Zhao Shirong under the umbrella, and the more they looked at them, the straighter their eyes became.

"How can this person look so close to the teacher's girl?"

"That rough man, does this girl sell it?"

"I'll give five hundred taels!"

……

A crowd of people gathered around.

But there are also sharp-eyed ones, so frightened that their legs and stomachs are spinning, their lips are white and their faces are blue, and they say in a trembling voice: "See...... Ever seen...... Town...... Zhenbei Hou !! ”

As soon as I heard the words "Zhenbei Hou", the scene instantly quieted down, followed by a paralysis, trembling, and some simply rolled their eyes and fainted in fright.

"Master Hou, Rao ...... Spare your life! ”

Chen Zhuo didn't look at the people on the ground, but looked at Zhao Shirong beside him, and said softly: "Do you want to go in and meet?" ”

Zhao Shirong lowered her eyes, she didn't see an expression, she shrugged her shoulders slightly, and chuckled with her little face, "Sir, what do you mean by taking me into this land of fireworks and willows?" ”

Chen Zhuo nodded, "Then don't go in, let's go somewhere." ”

Now that the overall situation of the rivers and lakes is tentative, all that remains is to respond to the Jurchen Iron Cavalry, and all parts of the country have begun to recruit soldiers, and the time will only get tighter and tighter in the future, Zhao Shirong seems to know the situation, and has been busy dealing with twists and turns at these times to stabilize the hearts of the courtiers.

just made a small request and asked Chen Zhuo to take her out for a walk.

Thinking about it carefully, since he stepped into this room, he doesn't seem to have calmed down to take a good walk and see the people in this world.

Let's say that all the way around, one holds an umbrella slowly, tall and burly, walks steadily, and the other is delicate and lively, jumping under the umbrella, which has attracted the attention of many passers-by.

The two of them didn't know how long they walked, the snow was getting heavier, and they were hesitating whether to go back, when they suddenly heard a bell ringing in the wind and snow.

When Xunsheng walked out, he saw a thousand-year-old temple in the snow.

Looking at the past from afar, covered by the snow, but it is still the peak of incense, the bell in the temple is huge and magnificent, and the pilgrims outside the temple are endless, but it is to the "Great Xiangguo Temple".

Watching the mist rise in the temple and the incense filling, Zhao Shirong was curious and asked Chen Zhuo.

At this moment, there was another person in the hall, that was a steady man, who seemed to be a little talker, difficult to be happy and angry, but all over his body exuded an indescribable might, and he was equipped with a knife, and his tiger eyes were bright.

"In Xia Shen Huzen, the family teacher is invited!"

The man was rough and calm, with a strong voice, and only walked out after speaking.

This person is the eldest disciple of the lazy and crippled master Ye Aichan, and he is also the head of the Seven Great Kou.

The three of them walked in front of the snow, turned a few Buddha halls, and walked straight to the Arhat Hall in the octagonal cloister, only to see an old monk with a scorched yellow face sitting in a wooden pavilion, holding a carving knife in his hand, carving the stone statue in front of him.

Ye Aichan's complexion recovered a lot, and when he heard his footsteps, he got up and turned around, and when he saw Chen Zhuo, his eyes were calm, and then he saw Zhao Shirong beside him suddenly brightened again, and only after a few glances did he smile.

"Master Chen, I've seen it."

In front of him stood a statue of a Bodhisattva of equal height, the outline had appeared, but there were no eyebrows on his face, Zhao Shirong looked curious, "Is this Bodhisattva a man or a woman?" ”

Ye Aichan said with a smile: "The Buddha has no appearance, but the appearance is born from the heart, which varies from person to person. ”

"Then why does this Buddha statue have a face?"

Although Zhao Shirong has read a lot of classics in the palace, and even the emperor's mental tricks and scheming, he has been trapped in the palace for a long time, and his understanding of everything in the world is still very shallow.

Chen Zhuo accepted the umbrella, "Naturally, it is to whitewash and earn incense money; Otherwise, this Buddha statue is a mud tire, the days go by, the mud shell peels off, people are not like people, Buddha is not like Buddha, how can those pilgrims worship. ”

Ye Aichan laughed when he heard this, "It seems that Chen Mengzhu is quite hostile to Buddhism, this clay fetal Buddha statue is just seen with the naked eye, if you have a wise root, you can see it very differently." ”

"Didn't the old monk refuse to admit defeat?"

Chen Zhuowen smiled, but his eyes were thoughtful.

I don't want Ye Aichan to suddenly say: "What the old monk did today is not the leader of the Chen League, but has a few words to say to the official family, I don't know if it's okay?" ”

Zhao Shirong blinked, looked at the old monk, and then looked at Chen Zhuo.

Chen Zhuo stared at Ye Aichan for a moment, but quickly returned to normal, and said warmly: "This monk is really good, if you want to listen, you can listen to it, and it doesn't matter if you don't want to listen." ”

Zhao Shirong said "um", "Old monk, what do you want to say to me?" ”

Ye Aichan nodded with a smile, "The official family comes with me." ”

Watching the two of them enter a Buddhist hall, Chen Zhuo stood in the snow with his hands in his hands, his eyes swept away, and he looked at the stone statue with no eyebrows, and he was thinking about how to arrange the future affairs.

When the time comes, it's time to go to Yue Fei.

With that infinite elixir, it is enough to make it ascend to the sky in one step, and when it grows up completely, it can become Zhao Shirong's right-hand man, stabilize the country, and as for Wenchen......

He thought to himself, but his eyes slowly changed, as if he had encountered something extremely incredible; The wind and snow in my ears are getting farther away, and the heavens and the earth seem to be drifting away, as if they have suddenly quieted down, but the stone statue has never been more real.

Suddenly, the stone statue in the wind and snow shook and shook, but it came to life and walked off the stone seat.

Chen was startled, but quickly reacted.

"See the Buddha speak!"

He looked at the stone statue, his eyes narrowed, and the ghost envoy asked, "Who are you?" ”

The stone statue had no eyebrows, no eyes, no mouth and no nose, but the face that was originally made of stone actually became smooth and bright in Chen Zhuo's eyes, like a bronze mirror.

Looking at each other, Chen Zhuo was shocked, and what he saw in his eyes was that his own eyebrows, eyes and facial features were reflected on the face of the stone statue.

The Buddha has no appearance, and it varies from person to person.

Chen Zhuo suddenly felt that his mind was greatly moved, and there was also a miraculous power that made him have some kind of mysterious connection with the stone statue.

Shanzi Sutra!!

Not only is there a miraculous power in his body, but the stone statue is also emitting miraculous power in his body, resonating with each other.

Chen Zhuo was in a trance, suddenly felt that the heavens and the earth were spinning, and then fixed his eyes, and he was shocked to find another self in front of him.

No, no, it was he who became a stone Buddha, as if he moved and changed with each other, and saw himself through the eyes of the stone Buddha, and it seemed to be in the body of the stone statue.

I heard a soft question in my ear, "Who are you?" ”

It was actually my own voice before.

Chen Zhuo was stunned for a moment.
