Chapter 485: Proof
"Xiahou City Lord, do you recognize this thing?"
While speaking, an invisible treasure jade was pinched between the thumb and index finger by Wang Luo, although the treasure jade was invisible, but through the distance between the two fingers and the deformation of the fingertips, it was not difficult to see its outline.
Xiahou Ying frowned, as if he was deep in thought, and did not make a sound.
After a while, he opened his mouth with hesitation.
"Lord Immortal Fu, what is this thing you are talking about?"
Wang Luo was a little strange: "What? Even if you can't see it, you should at least be aware of it, right? Just between my index finger and thumb, can't you see it at all? β
Xiahou Ying's brows couldn't help frowning even tighter, and the true yuan in his body also flowed according to his heart, attached to his eyes, and for a while, the aura bloomed, and the clear qi was compelling.
Obviously, although this Taiping City Lord is not good at fighting, and he can't even pick out a king eight fists, he does have real materials in his cultivation, and his decades of idle city lord career have never delayed his cultivation day by day. This simple and unpretentious clear-eyed trick alone is worthy of applause in Wang Luo's heart.
Pretty.
With the blessing of Qingmu Jue, Xiahou Ying finally had an insight, and as the true yuan flowed in his eyes, the spherical outline between Wang Luo's two fingers became clearer and clearer, and the ghostly light emitted from the treasure jade gradually appeared...... However, as he saw more and more, his face became paler. After a while, the aura on Xiahou Ying's eyes suddenly went out, and he himself jumped up directly from the seat, and then fell to his knees with a thud.
Xiahou Ying shook his head and said helplessly: "This is not something that can be known below." But you might as well assume: the national teacher has actually been wary of the queen mother's party for a long time, and his hole cards are hidden in the Eastern Capital Star Stage. As long as the immortal Fu can hold the treasure jade and open the Eastern Capital Star Pulling Platform, the national teacher will be able to get out of trouble, and then ...... Truly put things right. The whole process actually has nothing to do with Heavenly Court. β
After sighing, Xiahou Ying said again: "And if you look at it this way, the key criminal who is now frantically searched for by the Queen Mother's party should be that person, and the purpose is naturally this Yinxing Jade...... No wonder, no wonder! β
"Immortal Fu Envoy, I know you told me to keep my posture calm, but ...... In the Xinheng Dynasty, anyone who sees this thing will only react in the same way as me, even if it is as noble as a member of the royal family, they cannot be treated with courtesy. This is the Yinxing Treasure Jade, the key to open the Eastern Capital Star Pulling Platform, and the bridge connecting the immortals...... It is the seal of the national teacher, and seeing it is like seeing the immortal officials of the heavenly court, even the national teacher himself cannot easily take it out of the star platform, let alone show it to others like this! β
"How can such a thing happen...... It's really, it's unbelievable! β
Wang Luo pondered for a while and asked, "What is the level of Fancheng's defense strength?" β
Wang Luo then nodded and said, "So, that person asked me to bring this treasure jade back to the Eastern Capital and set things right, in fact, it was to activate the Star Pulling Platform and call for help from the Heavenly Court?" But this is ironic, if Heavenly Court learns that Zhang Jincheng and the seven immortal officials are in battle, I am afraid that all the relevant personnel from top to bottom will cramp and peel their skin...... His only wish before he died was to let his master die a miserable death? β
Xiahou Ying said frankly: "The person who swims in the lake that the adults saw should be the confidants of the National Teacher. Only the most trusted person of the national teacher can be entrusted to Baoyu and taken out of the border. The wasteland is full of dangers, even if it is a Heavenly Court Immortal Official, it is actually impossible to walk at will, especially at night. Legend has it that the wasteland at night may be infested with some powerful beasts whose strength is comparable to that of immortal officials. The fact that man dared to wander the mad lake at night with such a heavy treasure was completely putting the great treasure of the country in danger, and no one would do that until the last resort. If he is investigated by the immortal officials afterwards, the consequences will be unimaginable. β
After speaking, he suddenly came to his senses and asked, "Now that the Manchu Dynasty is searching for important criminals, could it be related to this thing?" β
Xiahou Ying pondered for a moment and said: "The eastern capital is the acropolis of the prosperous city, located ten miles east of the city, and there is only one star platform in the city that is worth mentioning. The star-pulling platform is imitated according to the star-holding platform built by the great secretary of the Daheng Dynasty in the old immortal calendar year. The effect is better than the original, and it has the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth. I really don't know the details, but decades ago, when I had an occasional after-dinner conversation with Mr. Mingli, the master of the throne, he mentioned that today's so-called star-pulling platform is not to draw the power of Zhou Tianxingdou to gain insight into cause and effect and discern the future, but to directly communicate with the heavenly court. Therefore, if you want to ask me what I think, I think I might as well boldly assume that this star-holding platform in the Eastern Capital is actually a channel for the National Teacher to directly communicate with the Heavenly Court. β
Wang Luo was simply surprised: "You ......"
The four words of setting things right are ironic when said by Xiahou Ying, a loyal minister of the new Heng Dynasty. But the truth is really different.
Then, Xiahou Ying smiled helplessly and said, "The Immortal Fu Envoy actually holds this thing, so ...... Indeed, it is really an immortal envoy. β
Wang Luo asked, "What do you think?" β
Wang Luo nodded, and briefly talked about what he saw and heard on the shore of Crazy Lake last night, which immediately amazed Xiahou Ying.
Wang Luo then also took Baoyu back into the treasure bag on his waist, Xiahou Ying was like being amnestied, sighed, stood up and sat back on the seat, and drank two cups of herbal tea in a row before calming down his heartbeat.
Wang Luo said again: "Before that person died, he left a message in Baoyu, asking me to take this thing to the Eastern Capital and set things right. What do you think? β
Xiahou Ying reminded: "The Star Pulling Platform is the most important place in the entire New Heng Dynasty, in terms of importance, it is a few points more important than the imperial city in the prosperous city, even in the peaceful season, it is not possible to enter if you want to." Not to mention at this point now, I am afraid that the Queen Mother and her party have already closely monitored the Star Pulling Platform, and it is really difficult to break through the layers of encirclement and reach the Eastern Capital. β
Although Xiahou Ying's hypothesis has a lot of subjective conjecture, it is not unreasonable when deduced carefully.
"So, next, our destination is the Eastern Capital Star Stage?"
The great enemy pressed the realm, but the new Heng Dynasty was in endless civil strife, and the Heavenly Court Immortal Officials who blessed the National Dynasty had already surrendered to the enemy, and the pessimism and irony of the situation were simply to the abstract realm!
No wonder Xiahou Ying stopped speaking after two sounds, his face was full of decadence, obviously not optimistic about the situation of the new Heng Dynasty at all.
Xiahou Ying replied: "I really don't dare to assert the specific situation, but as far as I know, the die-hard people under the command of the Empress Dowager Shan and her party include one Mahayana True Monarch and four or five Ancestors...... And there are dozens of people in the god rank. In addition, the magic circle in the city is even more powerful, and it is rumored that even if the immortal official is there in person, it is difficult to break through with his own brute force. Although the Immortal Fu makes the Lord have great magical powers, I am afraid that he ......"
"Well, I know, head-on conflict, I'm certainly not the opponent of the entire Queen Mother Party. I'm here to fight away, and of course I don't expect to be able to crush everything with absolute military superiority. But I don't need to single-handedly pick up the entire Queen Mother Party, as long as I can rescue Zhang Jincheng, it's enough. However, it is unknown how exactly he was now sealed and imprisoned......"
And in Wang Luo's deep groaning, in the simple hall of the City Lord's Mansion, a moan came from the faint sound.
"Uh......"
In the corner, the purple light of the county town You woke up slowly, at first a little confused, as if in a dream, but soon came to his senses and let out a short scream.
"Huh? Here, you ......"
As the screams echoed, the man's gaze gradually focused on Xiahou Ying and Wang Luo...... Soon cold sweat oozed out, and his heart was numb, but even so, he still did not forget to bluff.
"Who are you!? How dare you say ......"
The voice stopped abruptly, as if someone had been vigorously choking his throat.
Wang Luo said coldly: "Bastard, presumptuous!" β
In an instant, an invisible coercion exploded like a storm, not only Captain Hongguang was awakened by the coercion, but even Xiahou Ying, who was in the bystander position, couldn't help but be silent.
And Wang Luo took advantage of the victory to pursue: "As a new Heng official army, you lead the court and Lu, and you should die for the court and the people, but the second class does not think about being loyal to the public, but takes advantage of official affairs to extort the lord of a city, and even protrudes the claws of innocent people!" According to the new Hengjun law, the two of you are simply dead! β
This righteous and stern reprimand made the two captains a little at a loss for a while, and Wang Luo's coercion came to their faces, making it difficult for the two to breathe, and they didn't dare to question each other's identities.
After a long time, the two of them barely managed to even out their breathing, and Captain Ziguang You asked tremblingly, "Dare to ask your lordship...... However, is it an envoy of Dongcheng? The villain offends the adult Tianwei, and the crime deserves death! β
Wang Luo's ears moved when he heard this, and he felt a little inexplicable, but he saw Xiahou Ying's fingers tapping lightly on the coffee table next to him, hinting that he didn't have to respond to this question...... So Wang Luo suddenly realized: These two captains are really cunning and bold, and when they are dying, they still have the courage to test Wang Luo's truth.
The so-called envoy of Dongcheng is simply the name that Captain Ziguang casually took out to try, and if he responded seriously at this time, he would be worthless.
Fortunately, Wang Luo was not alone at this time, and there was a city lord Xiahou Ying who was well versed in the art of intrigue.
I saw that the old city lord mustered up his courage, snorted coldly, and tried his best to put on a condescending and arrogant posture, and said, "You two don't even know the Immortal Fu Envoy? How does General Li educate his subordinates on weekdays!? β
Captain Ziguang's eyes widened when he heard this, his mouth opened and he was speechless for a long time.
Captain Hongguang subconsciously retorted: "Immortal Fu Envoy? Are you kidding!? Xiahou Ying, did you jump off the wall in a hurry, and dare to find any reason?! Hurry up and let our family go, otherwise when the general leads his troops to arrive, the whole city will die without a place to be buried! β
On the other side, Captain Ziguang You's heart sank, he was different from Captain Hongguang, he always thought a few layers deeper, so he immediately realized that the situation of the two of them at this time was a desperate situation at all. Regardless of whether the identity of the immortal envoy is true or false, at this time, the other party dares to put out the three words of the immortal envoy, then it is clear that he wants to tear his face.
And the next step in tearing the skin of the face, there is a high probability that it will be a sacrifice flag!
Therefore, when Captain Hongguang was majestic and intimidating, Captain You immediately lowered his figure and said, "My lord, is it really an immortal envoy?" Forgive me for having eyes and no beads...... However, can adults have certificates? If it is really the Immortal Fu Envoy, we will take the blame for ourselves......"
When Captain Hongguang heard this, he suddenly felt a sense of surprise that he had been stabbed in the back, he looked at his comrades beside him in disbelief, and said sharply: "You Chi, what nonsense are you talking about, how can he be an immortal envoy?" If he is an immortal envoy, you and I will be Heavenly Court Immortal Officials! Aren't you scared?! What are you afraid of? We have already sent the sword back to pass the book, and the general's reinforcements will arrive in an instant......"
Wang Luo smiled and stretched out his hand to show the trapped flying sword: "The so-called flying sword biography, is this it?" β
Captain Hongguang was stunned for a long time, and cold sweat began to ooze from his forehead, but his mouth remained tough: "Even if you intercept the flying sword, it is useless, the two of us were ordered to come to Liuyan City to spread the word, if we can't return to the county city for a period of time, the people in the city will naturally know that we have encountered an accident, and when the army attacks, any conspiracy and trickery you have will be wiped out." I advise you to surrender now that it's too late to die, and don't die after that old thing! His backstage backer has long since fallen! β
Wang Luo's eyes lit up and asked, "Oh? Mr. Mingli's protΓ©gΓ©s were all over the world, and there were many friends and relatives in the court, even the queen mother's party couldn't help him, and now although he has died, his reputation has increased instead of decreasing after his death. β
This fishing question that he asked knowingly made Captain Hongguang's eyes light up, and he quickly explained: "Naturally, no one had anything to do with him during his lifetime, but when people go to tea and cool, how can there be any reason in the world that his reputation will increase after death!?" In short, now not only Sang County, but also the Mingli henchmen in several surrounding counties are being cleaned up in a unified manner. Even this Xiahou Eagle was specially told by the people above to be sure that we must take it...... If you still know the current affairs, let the two of us go now, and I can still say a few kind words for you in front of the general. If you are obsessed......"
Wang Luo interrupted: "The surrounding counties are cleaning up Mr. Mingli's henchmen? Who's the instigator of such a big thing, how do I not know? β
This natural tone made Captain Hongguang a little uncertain, but he couldn't wait to talk to Wang Luo more and delay for some time.
"We are only acting on orders, and we have limited knowledge of the situation in the surrounding counties......
Wang Luo said: "If you know as much as you know, you can say as much as you want, and you can't hide it." β
Captain Hongguang's brain teaser was in a hurry, and he wanted to make up a reason to continue, but before he could speak, he felt the air around him feel cold.
Captain You, who came with him, suddenly had a strong coercion on his body that did not belong to him at all.
It was a high-ranking official authority that was not inferior to Wang Luo, and this coercion was so familiar to Captain Hongguang.
The star army of the county city, the general of the garrison Li Fengxian!
This veteran stationed in the county town of Sangjun suddenly put his own Yuan Shen, a hundred miles away, to his lieutenants!
Then, he opened his eyes, looked at Wang Luo, and said in a low voice: "Who are you, dare to ...... to my subordinates?"
Before he finished speaking, Wang Luo had already smiled indifferently: "Immortal Fu Envoy, Wang Luo." β
"Tell the truth! I've been stationed in Fancheng and Dongdu for ten years, and I've never seen an immortal envoy like you! β
Wang Luo nodded: "That's right, there is no evidence, then let's talk about the facts." β
After saying that, he stood up and came to Captain Hongguang, stretched out his hand, and pressed his Heavenly Spirit...... Then the desolate poison in his body surged out, and in an instant, he devoured the Jindan Lieutenant. And when the tide of desolation faded, the captain no longer had the outline of a human being.
"Do you believe it now?"
