Chapter 12: Grievances

After night fell again, the Great Commander of the Dark Department quietly came to the Divine Farmland, and saw Xie Lanyan pinching a butterfly with a solemn expression from a long distance, and he didn't notice it until he walked in front of him.

"Anyway, he was also the great commander of the White Sect, is his alertness so poor?" He interrupted the other party's thoughts softly, and Xie Lanyan turned her face stiffly, but her gaze only swept over this person suspiciously, and then she looked straight into the distance, and said in a low voice, "Grand Commander, is that person really not learning spells?" ”

The Grand Commander held his chin and thought about it seriously, nodded and replied: "According to the investigation of the dark department and the performance of the past six months, Xiao Qianye's spell cultivation can basically be summarized as negligible. ”

"In less than half an hour last night, all the 300 butterflies I released were killed." Xie Lanyan gritted his teeth and reminded, and asked the letter suspiciously, "This butterfly is raised by the Bai Sect's insect control technique, and ordinary weapons can't kill it, as long as it falls on a person's body, it can get into the body unconsciously, when he returned to the barracks, my butterfly had already arrived one step ahead of schedule, but it was all frozen in the air by his several swords and couldn't move, and when I wanted to control them to break free, his sword qi conjured up countless sword shadows, and directly crushed all the butterflies into powder." ”

The Grand Commander didn't feel very surprised, as a person who was extremely familiar with the various forbidden techniques of the White Sect, he naturally knew that Xie Lanyan's butterflies were quickly wiped out after approaching the military camp, out of curiosity, he secretly manipulated another batch of butterflies in the past to sneak attack, which would be sarcastic with interest: "Kunlun martial arts is already broad and profound, and swordsmanship cultivation to the limit is naturally enough to kill demons and eliminate demons, by the way, Miss Xie's rival is not the female sword fairy of Kunlun Mountain, then you should be no stranger to their swordsmanship, right?" ”

One sentence made Xie Lan angry, she viciously snuffed out the insect control technique in the palm of her hand, and still snorted arrogantly because of her face, and sneered at each other: "The mouth of the Great Commander is still as annoying as ever, no wonder he looks so handsome and never likes women." ”

"That face of King Garan is very flattering to women, isn't it?" The Grand Commander didn't mind at all, he sat on the rock with a smile, and said eloquently as if gossiping, "It's not a secret, that King Garan really made the dark department suffer a lot, and even a high-minded and arrogant person like Governor Gao took the initiative to order us to avoid the edge for the time being, he should have met Yun Qiushui, the female sword fairy of Kunlun Mountain, a man who pushed the White Sect to the top, and let go of his noble status and unparalleled appearance in the sect, but fell in love with a Central Plains woman at first sight, it seems that feelings are such a thing." , it's really not something that can be swayed by your face alone. ”

The two raised their heads at the same time, one with a smile on his eyebrows, and the other gritted his teeth, the great commander didn't care about the anger in the other party's expression, and said with added vinegar: "King Jialan has a wife and a daughter, why should Miss Xie miss him?" Could it be that a woman who has moved her heart will really become stupid? ”

Xie Lanyan endured the anger in his heart and spoke: "Hmph, a person like the Great Commander must have never met someone he really likes, right?" ”

"Indeed." Not only did the other party not refute, but nodded seriously, Xie Lanyan raised his lips and sneered, "Then wait until you meet this person to discuss this topic with me." ”

"If there is such a person......" the Grand Commander smiled, the light in his eyes was cold and bright, but his voice was calm and pleasant, "I will kill her with my own hands." ”

"What?" Xie Lanyan was stunned, and when she saw the other party deliberately baring her teeth, she raised a big laugh, "Because I don't want to be as stupid as you." ”

Xie Lanyan pursed her mouth in disgust, not wanting to continue this unpleasant topic, and reminded: "Even if there is any grudge, it is a private matter between me and Yun Qiushui, and I still have feelings for the White Sect and don't want to see it destroyed, so I will come over, we are a cooperative relationship, and the Grand Commander doesn't want to stiffen the relationship so quickly, right?" ”

The Great Commander of the Dark Department hurriedly bowed his hand to her, apologized hypocritically, and turned the topic back to the moment in a good voice: "Before, you sent a message saying that Cen Ge had other plans, what does this mean?" ”

"I don't know." Perhaps because he was greatly upset by his attitude just now, Xie Lanyan rolled his eyes angrily, and asked in a tough manner, "You tell me the whereabouts of King Jialan first." ”

"That's not going to work." The Grand Commander also refused without hesitation, and said with a smile, "This is the condition of our cooperation, and naturally it will not be counted until it is completed." ”

"Haven't you already retired from the army?" Xie Lanyan raised his eyebrows, pointing to a quibble somewhere in the distance.

The Grand Commander looked at him with an "oh", his voice was very indifferent, and it seemed to be bottomless: "Miss Xie, don't play stupid with me, right?" Although neither the White Sect nor the Emperor openly admitted anything, but for so many years, they have always tacitly agreed to take Fulong Town as the boundary, and the White Tiger's camp was originally on the plain thirty miles away from Fulong Town, not so much to retreat, but to restore the original state, this is not the ending that the Governor wants to see, the Governor hopes that the two brothers of the Tianzheng Mansion will not return. ”

"Governor Gao's appetite is really not small, and if you want to eat a big fat man, you have to be careful of being strangled to death." Xie Lanyan sneered nonchalantly, glancing at the feminine face in front of her eyes and once again hooking the corners of her lips, it was really a kind of bewitching beauty that could shock people's hearts, and it had some kind of temptation that was extremely similar to the sect leader back then, and she couldn't help but ask curiously, "Speaking of which, I still don't know what the name of the Great Commander is and what kind of clan he is?" With the status of Governor Gao's powerful status, you would let a foreigner serve as your most trusted leader of the dark department, presumably your identity must not be simple, right? ”

"Me?" The Grand Commander smiled absently, as if he had been provoked by this question with some distant memories, and he regained his eyes after a moment of distraction, and replied lightly, "It's a pity, I don't have a name of my own, if Miss Xie doesn't mind, you can call me according to the number, my number is the number 'thirty-three'." ”

"Number?" Xie Lanyan showed a ghostly expression, looked the man up and down in disbelief, and muttered in a low voice, "No, you have so much trust from Governor Gao, he actually only gave you a 'number'?" ”

"There are a lot of 'tools' like me in the dark department, Miss Xie shouldn't be surprised." The Grand Commander still answered lightly, and these things did not cause his emotions to fluctuate in the slightest, but only made him purse his lips amusedly, and had a rare chat with her.

"Tsk." Xie Lanyan held her chin with emotion and said to herself, "The dark part is an eagle dog raised by the imperial court, and it doesn't even have a decent name?" It's embarrassing. ”

"The eagle dog of the court?" The Grand Commander paused and smiled back, "Miss Xie is really good at talking, others call us Governor Gao's lackeys, only you say that you are 'Eagle Dogs of the Imperial Court', although they all mean the same thing, it sounds comfortable in the end." ”

"I'm just curious about you." Xie Lanyan approached this person and sniffed with his nose against the side of his face, revealing a confused expression, "In the past thousand years since falling into the sky and falling into the sea, the difference between aliens and humans in appearance has become smaller and smaller, only the special aura on the body cannot be concealed and eliminated, the five senses of human beings are dull, and some tools are needed to accurately identify, but we don't need to, if you get closer like this, you can clearly know that it is the same kind, but I can't tell which clan you are a descendant of, it's a chaotic taste." ”

The Grand Commander was unmoved, and replied lightly: "I don't have anything to be curious about Miss Xie, if you only have one dog, you may give it a nice name, what if you have a hundred, a thousand, or even ten thousand?" You certainly won't waste time choosing names, only the first 300 tools in the shadows are eligible for numbering, and after 300 there will only be lot numbers, and lot numbers from the same period share a name......"

"Stop, stop!" Xie Lanyan interrupted him, these few words of conversation that seemed to be in a steady tone made her feel like a man, the cold wind of the snow field did not make her feel cold, but instead she shivered and couldn't help rubbing her hands and sighed, seeing her eyes, the commander laughed, looking up at the bright moon above his head, on this rare night when the snow stopped, his expression was mixed with a lot of complicated feelings, "Miss Xie doesn't have to know which clan I am, that clan has perished since I can remember." ”

"Extermination......" Xie Lanyan read these two words softly, and sighed, "In the past hundred years, the extermination of the clan has long been not a sensational event, I have flipped through the history of the White Sect "Liuhelu", and the book records that Lord Feng Ji often appears to save the alien race from fire and water, so she has always been regarded as the head of the hundred spirits, and is admired and respected by everyone, but I have never seen her once, let alone exterminating the clan, now the White Tiger Legion is coming down the mountain, and the army can rush up to level the Qianji Palace at any time, but she still has no news at all, I only showed up a year ago, but now I haven't heard from me again. ”

At the mention of Feng Ji, the Great Commander's eyes, which were originally as silent as stagnant water, inadvertently fluctuated, and then he quietly covered up the past, and Xie Lanyan complained with emotion: "It's really strange, she hasn't shown up in fifty years, it stands to reason that Tianzheng Mansion and her should be free of grievances, right?" How could he suddenly enter the imperial capital city and burn it down directly? Moreover, Bai Jiao did not even notify Bai Sect in advance of this matter, and he did not explain the reason at all afterwards. ”

"Hehe......" A sneer appeared on the corner of the Grand Commander's lips, and his eyes instantly turned a dark gray, and he retorted in a low voice, "Who can prove that the Tianzheng Mansion was killed by her?" When the patrol guards of the forbidden army arrived, Tianzheng Mansion was surrounded by her flames and couldn't get close at all, and when the fire dispersed the next day, everyone including the pavilion lord and his wife died, and even the body was burned to cause no clues in the follow-up investigation, and a few days later, the news of the survival of the eldest son Xiao Yibai came from the Jialuo Weeping Snow Plateau, thousands of miles away, or the crown prince personally came to look for him, and then the Tianzheng Mansion's extermination case was dumped to Feng Ji, at least on the surface, the case was closed, This time, Xiao Qianye came back and wanted to re-investigate, but the crown prince directly refused, don't you think this matter is too strange? ”

Xie Lanyan didn't feel anything while holding her chin, and answered casually: "After all, it's Lord Feng Ji, no one wants to mess with her, right?" ”

The Grand Commander paused, and his tone was a little strange: "Indeed, although she is only a god in the hearts of aliens, her strength has been obvious to all over the years, and it is reasonable that the emperor is unwilling to provoke her, but why did she just leave Xiao Yibai and not kill him, and brought him from the imperial capital city to the snow tablet?" You are the great commander of the White Sect, you should know that there is a powerful divine power near that snow stele, and if a bird is accidentally involved, it will be torn to pieces, and humans, aliens and even monsters can't get close, she is the only one who can get close, why did she take Xiao Yibai over, and what happened during the period? ”

Xie Lanyan was speechless, and the man in front of her was silent again, under the moonlight of the snowfield, this person's face with lowered eyes was like a piece of beautiful jade, which made her look a little distracted.

"Xiao Yibai is still in the Thousand Machines Palace, right?" The Grand Commander raised his head and looked into the distance, "Those two fire beads contain a poison concocted by the shadows, one is enough to kill, but he directly melted two and was able to survive until Cen Ge passed by to rescue, that guy's body seems to be a little special, and now the crown prince suddenly ordered the withdrawal of troops must also be for him, since this is the case, I can't keep him for a long night." ”

"Before, you asked me to use the insect control technique to attack the military camp without any effect, and now what do you want to do?" Xie Lanyan's heart was pounding, and a wooden box had been thrown into her hand.

The Grand Commander stretched out his index finger and made a booing gesture, with an unpredictable smile in his eyes: "There is a lotus altar at the end of the Thousand Machines Palace, under that altar suppresses the lives that have been slaughtered by the successive sect leaders and great priests who have been ordered to practice forbidden techniques for seven hundred years, and every time the blood spell and bone spell are activated, it is actually to awaken the sleeping necromancer for his own use, and the reason why such a vicious power has not gotten out of control is because there is a holy sword from the heavenly realm hidden in the center of that lotus." Fengshen', you go and destroy the altar and sprinkle the contents of this box, although I don't know how true or false those peach-colored scandals between Xiao Yibai and the crown prince are, but he is indeed a person that the crown prince attaches great importance to, if he dies in Qianji Palace, the crown prince will definitely step on the Baijiao at all costs to avenge him, and at that time, I will take advantage of the chaos to kill Xiao Qianye and let them both lose. ”

"You're crazy!?" Xie Lanyan's eyes widened, and the hand holding the wooden box trembled violently uncontrollably, she never expected that this kind of secret that had been hidden for hundreds of years would be known by an outsider, she staggered back a step, and finally began to doubt the true identity of this person, "How did you know these things?" Although the dark department is elusive, but this matter is only known to the sect masters and the great priest of the past dynasties, and even Lord Feng Ji has not known much about it for seven hundred years, you can't know the secrets of the White Sect so well, you ...... Who the hell are you? ”

The Grand Commander's smile became dangerous: "Didn't Miss Xie find out that those blood butterflies that you used to control insects were transferred from the altar by me using the Spatial Enchantment Technique?" ”

Xie Lanyan took a breath of cold air, most of the blood butterflies were indeed kept on the altar, but because of their strong strength, the sect masters of the past dynasties would secretly arrange a small part near the main altar as a defense, so she didn't doubt it.

The Grand Commander still looked calm and continued: "You have read the history book of the White Sect "Liuhelu", then you should know that Feng Ji herself has never held any position in the sect since the creation of the sect, and even those frightening forbidden techniques have been studied and sorted out by later generations in order to protect themselves, it is really ridiculous, you are worshipping a person who has never cared about the White Sect as a god, Xie Lanyan, even if the White Sect is leveled by the military pavilion today, she will definitely not appear." ”

"You ......" Xie Lanyan retreated step by step, there was a kind of creepiness that made her sweat in the ice and snow, and before she could take a step back, the other party's hand that was colder than ice and snow gently brushed her cheeks, and the smile of the commander was feminine and venomous, and he said word by word, "There should have been a vacancy in "Liuhelu" thirty years ago, right?" Who do you think ruined that history? ”

Xie Lanyan was stunned, there was a traitor in the White Sect thirty years ago, and it was precisely because of that person's betrayal that the important forbidden art was stolen, and the distribution of the main altar was also completely found out by the imperial capital!

The Great Commander pressed his heart with his other finger at this moment, as if there was some strong emotion about to surge out: "I also prayed sincerely for her to help, I tried my best to climb to the top of the White Sect not to help Gao Chengchuan steal the Soul Splitting Dafa, let alone to help him find out the terrain map and the distribution of disciples, I was looking for her...... I'm here to beg her to save me! But she didn't show up at all, and no matter how much I called out to her at the snow lake, she didn't give me any response. ”

The cold fingers brushed her cheeks, but countless unfamiliar pictures flashed in her mind, and before she could concentrate on seeing more clearly, her cheeks suddenly hurt slightly, as if she had been bitten by something, the voice of the great commander was ethereal and distant, and the charming eyes gently looked at Xie Lanyan, who was in a trance, and the light in her eyes spread and gathered, gathered and scattered again, a blood-colored butterfly flew out of the bite wound, and was gently caught by him, and said in a low voice: "Forget what I just said, Go back to the Thousand Machines Palace, and wait for my orders. ”

Xie Lanyan nodded mechanically, and the butterfly danced at his fingertips, and then flew silently in the direction of the Thousand Machine Palace.
