"So Rong Lu, you mean, Wang Qi may be mixed up with Li Jun, and even someone from Tianque is involved?"

In the grass house on the outskirts, the old man stood by the fire and sweated like rain. The lines of the shirtless body are tight, and there is no trace of aging.

"From what I saw at the time, it should be like this."

Rong Lu, who was standing outside the door, nodded, pondered for a moment and said, "But I think Tianque may not have the leisure and the ability to make enemies with us." I received news that Maoshan Guanyunguan lost a martial order who surrendered to sincerity, and the Wu Si named Shen Li should have come for this, and his appearance was most likely just an accident. However, Li Jun should have been connected with those ghosts. ”

"Dilong Station once, Lion Rock once, if the two encounters are accidents, then we are deceiving ourselves."

Liu Xianzhou, who was like a pale lion, looked at the flames jumping in the furnace, and suddenly sneered: "It seems that a small attack on the grass and the snake will make this group of ghosts unable to hold their breath." What should have been an experiment without any variables has now brought in so much outside help. Even if Wang Qi can successfully become a follower in the end, can the results of such experiments still be convincing? Can they use this to plot against other ghosts? ”

Rong Lu said: "It seems that so many failed experiments have made them jump off the wall in a hurry, and now they urgently need a successful case to boost morale." ”

"Those who have the courage have already rebelled, and whether the experiment can be successful or not, they will rebel sooner or later. It was the swaying ghosts who rode the wall and watched that they needed the results of this experiment to prove that even after they broke away from us, they could still smoothly become orderly, rather than ordinary people like ants to be slaughtered. ”

"As long as they see this clearly, these Ming ghosts, who started at least nine grades, will be willing to fight hard for the so-called 'freedom', otherwise they would rather continue to be wolf dogs with collars, after all, at least they can have meat to eat at every meal. But if you really become a displaced wild dog, you can only eat for a while. ”

Liu Xianzhou said with a smile: "It seems that in this game, we don't need to make a move, and the other party has already thrown in and conceded defeat." ”

"My lord, what do we do next?"

Rong Lu asked respectfully: "Do you continue to wait and see what happens, or take the initiative?" ”

"Before, I waited and watched the changes, in order to brake with static and kill with one blow at a critical moment. But now those hidden traitors have panicked and pushed themselves into a dead end, and we naturally have no need to continue waiting. And this is the first big case that I took over and love, if I show too weakness, it is easy to let some people who don't have long eyes gossip behind my back. ”

"I know, I'll arrange it now." Rong Lu replied solemnly.

"Get things done cleanly. Let these ghosts recognize clearly who is the master who will reward them with meat. ”

Liu Xianzhou took his eyes off the fire, looked at Rong Lu and said with a smile: "Meng Xi is dead, and there is still a vacant seat in the current Middle Council Elders. It's not often that chance happens, you know? ”

"Thank you, sir."

Rong Lu's hands were clenched, and his eyes were hot.

Leaving this sword-forging grass house hidden in the mountains on the outskirts of the city, Ronglu walked down the mountain.

Han Xiang, the chief officer of the ninth room of the love institute, drove a black horse and waited here.

"How do you feel about today's events, Han Xiang?"

After the heavy rain, the mountain road is filled with fog.

The light emitted can only illuminate a distance of five feet, but the car is always fast and steady.

Hearing Rong Lu's question in the back row, Han Xiang in the driver's seat said succinctly: "There are too many coincidences. ”

"Let's be more detailed."

Han Xiang slowed down the car slightly, and after a moment of silence, he said: "The three sects and the nine streams have their own spheres of influence in Jinling City, Zheng Jizhi hid his banquet hall under the Lion Rock, this news is not even known to us, but Qin Ge was able to arrive at the first time of the incident, and this alone is too different from his previous style and ability." And my lord, you followed Wang Qi tonight, and actually met Li Jun and Shen Li of Tianque in the wine shop under the Lion Rock, if this is also a coincidence, it is too unreasonable. ”

Han Xiang recalled the scene of the dispute with Zou Sijiu at that time, and smiled disdainfully: "And that yin and yang order disguised as Qin Ge actually wants to push his humble position to the position of a traitor who will do whatever it takes to seek a higher position, and he himself will play a loyal minister who is discreet and professional." If it weren't for your lordship's instructions in advance, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to play this scene with him. ”

"Their performances were too clumsy and deliberate."

Rong Lu sighed: "This group of Jinyi guards in the Japanese district only has this level, and it is really ridiculous that Elder Meng would be planted in their hands." ”

"Do you think they will continue to act?"

"The play has already begun, and they are not qualified not to continue acting."

Rong Lu said indifferently: "A lone martial four, even if the fighting ability can really crown the order four, and even fight with some parallel goods order three, it will definitely not be able to compete with the entire middle court head-on." Only in this way will they be able to take advantage of us. However, this group of rat-eyed mourning dogs can do this step is not bad. ”

Han Xiang smiled: "Then should we throw some benefits out first and continue to hang them?" I'm worried that if they continue to play like this, they will have to go through their own tricks. ”

"Just follow their script, let's divide the traitors between you and Qin Ge first."

Rong Lu looked at the dark and dreary fog outside the window, and said with a lazy expression: "Let them feel that everything is under control, and those traitors who hide inside us have the courage to crawl out of the shadows." ”

"If it weren't for the particularity of the Ming Ghost Realm, we wouldn't be able to enter the investigation, otherwise we would have caught all these traitors who ate inside and out, how could we give them a chance to survive until now?" Han Xiang said angrily.

"Even if there is no Ming Ghost Realm, it will be a matter of time before they rebel. Back then, Wu Xu was so arrogant and domineering, bullying the world with the power of his family, and in the end, he was not overturned. No one wants to be ridden on their heads for the rest of their lives. ”

"I heard that some research groups in the middle court are secretly studying how to let Mo Xu enter the Ming Ghost Realm and how to further strengthen the thinking control of the Ming Ghost. If these studies achieve a breakthrough, the problem of ghosts should be completely solved. ”

"These projects happen every year, but I haven't seen anyone succeed, but they are all just to cheat some heavenly work. The only way to solve the problem is to show up and kill a group of people, kill all the thorns who do not obey discipline, and the rest are naturally good dogs who work obediently. ”

Rong Lu's expression was calm, but his words were murderous: "So this time, the most important task of our Jian Ai Institute is to dig out the group of Ming ghosts hidden in the Central Plains, and that martial artist is only secondary." It is necessary to seize this rare opportunity and try to catch them all. Even if they can't do it, at least they have to be seriously damaged, and they won't have the courage to think twice within ten years! ”

"Yes, sir."

With Han Xiang's low response, the conversation in the car came to an end.

The fog that permeated the mountains thinned out, and the brightly lit city was visible in the distance.

At this moment, Han Xiang, who was driving, suddenly opened a secret mechanism, and a shielded audio that could not be captured by human ears spread in the car.

"My lord, there are some things that I don't know whether to say or not."

Han Xiang, who was slightly nervous and cramped, looked through the rearview mirror at Rong Lu, who was sleeping with his eyes closed in the back seat.

"Since you've decided to say it, let's say it."

Rong Lu didn't open his eyes, and his tone was quite indifferent.

Han Xiang pursed his lips and tried his best to keep his voice steady: "There are many rumors in the Central Plains now, saying that what happened in Liaodong is likely to be the fuse of the second phase of the new policy of the New Donglin Party. The Confucian order will use this to confront and even clash with the Buddha order. ”

"It's not a rumor anymore."

For the first time, Rong Lu said in an admiring tone: "This is Lord Shoufu's Yang Scheme. ”

"I have no other thoughts when I tell you this. I also know that I know that the above will definitely stand on the side of the Confucian Order, after all, after the Mo Order was split into the Five Academies, it is precisely because of the support and help of Lord Shoufu that our Intermediate Court has been able to develop to this day."

"So you're wondering if the Intermediate Court will follow the dispatch of Lord Shoufu and participate in the conflict with the Buddha's order, right?"

"Sure enough, nothing can escape your eyes."

Han Xiao sneered, his eyes swept the backview mirror, but he found that Rong Lu had opened his eyes at some point.

"Han Xiang, are you scared?"

Han Xiang's heart twitched fiercely, and he hurriedly said, "Of course not. After all these years of chasing down those traitors, he has already put life and death aside. I'm just worried that this will be too risky for the Intermediate Court, in case the Confucian Order loses."

"It's impossible to lose! Lord Shoufu will definitely win, and he will win with an unstoppable momentum, and he will overwhelm the entire Ming Empire with the power of the order! There is no doubt about that. ”

Rong Lu interrupted his words sharply, looking at the fanatical eyes reflected in the mirror, which made Han Xiang feel a shudder inexplicably.

"Adult Me"

"Han Xiang, do you know that in the ancient times when the Ming Empire had not yet been established, in this land, only we and Confucianism could be called the world's scholars, and only we were qualified to rule the world with Confucianism and educate all the people!"

Rong Lu sat up straight suddenly, and said in a cruel voice: "It's a pity that all the past generations of Juzi are stupid and incompetent, resting on their laurels, obsessed with technology and heavenly creations, and indiscriminately giving kindness to those worthless untouchable ordinary people, resulting in the status and strength of the entire ink order. The previous generation of juzi was even more willing to degenerate to the same stream as those martial artists, and cut himself off from other sequences, and the entire ink order was squeezed out and suppressed, and since then it has been in a slump! ”

"The other sequences are all planted by the predecessors, and the descendants enjoy the shade, only we are the predecessors who make mistakes, and the descendants repay. Decades of groveling have already made many followers forget the glory of the ink order, and even those ghosts created by us dare to rebel. ”

"This new deal is an opportunity for us to be ashamed! It is also the best opportunity for us to get rid of the decline and return to the status of 'prominent learning'! ””

Rong Lu's right hand clasped the headrest of the front seat, and the forward leaning figure made Han Xiang feel a strong sense of pressure that was difficult to breathe.

"As long as we can help Shousuke-sama complete this vast ritual, the day when he achieves the first order will be the time for us to reunite the Five Courtyards and end the division of the Ink Order. By that day, the Mo Xuan will become a powerful sequence second only to the Confucian Order, and those sequences that have demanded debts from us will be liquidated one by one, and no one will be able to escape! ”

But in addition to our Intermediate Court over the years, isn't it Confucianism that has oppressed the other four courts the most?

This doubt flashed in Han Xiang's heart, and at this moment, he regretted it, regretting that he should not provoke this conversation, and he didn't know why Rong Lu suddenly had such violent emotional ups and downs.

"My lord, I'm on your side."

Han Xiang's throat rolled up and down, and he hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "Actually, I also think that Lord Shoufu will definitely be able to succeed." ”

Rong Lu's eyes stared directly at Han Xiang's side face, and suddenly let go of the five fingers buckled on the headrest, and his body lay back in the seat.

"Scared you, didn't you?"

"No, no."

Rong Lu straightened out his folded collar, and his face once again returned to his former calmness.

"I also treat Han Xiangling as my own, so I will tell you this. You should be able to understand this, right? ”

"Of course I understand."

Han Xiang smiled again and again, looked sideways behind him and said, "I am also hoping that you will give me a chance to make contributions when the time comes."

Before the words were finished, a sudden change occurred!

The front windshield of the black horse was like a boiling water, and the spreading cracks were like ripples, and a bullet broke through the 'water surface' and went straight to Han Xiangwei's head to the rear.

In this time, which seemed to freeze frame by frame, black metal armor pieces rushed out from under Han Xiang's clothes, swarming through his collarbone and throat, rushing to his upper and lower jaws and ears, and converging from all sides towards the front door.

But just as the ink armor was about to be completed, only when there was still a gap the size of a copper coin at the root of Han Xiang's nose bone, the bullet that broke through the flesh broke in!

"Big"

Han Xiang's eyes were frightened, and his lips didn't have time to spit out the next word, and his entire head exploded.

Flying fragments of ink armor set off a metal storm in the dense carriage, windows on all sides burst at the same time, and the out-of-control body swayed from side to side on the mountain road like a wounded beast.

Bang!

Rong Lu, who was wearing a dark blue ink armor, broke out of the window and landed steadily on the mountain road.

It was only at this time that a belated violent gunfire finally broke out of the mountain shadow and dense fog, and came into Rong Lu's ears with great clarity.

Rumble!

The out-of-control body crashed into the mountain wall, and the explosion was wrapped in flames, blowing away the entrenched fog, revealing a tall and majestic figure.

The whole body of the covered armor presents a dark golden color, and the ancient mountain patterns on the armor are intertwined into a hideous beast shape, and the tiger heads on the left and right armies are separated, and the beating black flame is like a silk silk, wrapped around the crotch and arm.

"Ronglu, I reminded you, the road is slippery when it's dark, don't be alone."

In the middle of the helmet and gun, under the scarlet one-eye, Li Jun smiled coldly and looked contemptuous.

"Forgot so quickly?"
