Chapter 137: Analysis of the Ink Sevenfold
Ye Feng couldn't help but ask, "Why did you go to such great lengths to lure me to Hangzhou?"
Mo Qizhong snorted and said, "Naturally, it's to deal with this old guy Lei Potian." At that time, Lei Potian cheated to death, and asked his son Lei Yuyun to come to join the Jiangnan Ming family, wanting to secretly provoke the power of the Jiangnan Ming family to deal with the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, and even attacked Tang Da, so that he was seriously injured and disappeared. ”
"His plan is not bad, but it was seen by Old Man Ming, and he has already taken precautions. The Ming family in Jiangnan wants to revive and dominate the rivers and lakes again, and now the Tang Gate in Shuzhong is naturally a big obstacle that must be removed, and although the Lei family seems to have been defeated in the hands of the Tang Sect and has declined, in fact, the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, and the Lei family still retains considerable strength. ”
"Especially Lei Potian, as long as he is there, the Lei family is in danger of reuniting and uniting and making a comeback, so the old man Ming simply planned and used you to let the Lei family and the Tangmen of Shuzhong fight in Hangzhou, and fight to lose both. ”
As he expected, with your help, Lei Potian's plan went bankrupt, and he also lost the life of his son Lei Yuyun, and fled in embarrassment. In the battle of Tangmen in Shuzhong, several generals were also lost in a row, and their strength was greatly damaged. ”
"It's just that after this battle, Lei Potian is still alive, and in terms of the Tang Sect in Shuzhong, the eldest young master Tang Da, who originally thought that he was going to die, actually returned unharmed, which made Old Man Ming a little disappointed. ”
Ye Feng looked at Mo Qizhong and shook his head gently.
He kept saying that he was old man Ming, and he seemed to admire old man Ming's exhaustive strategy, and between his expressions and words, it was like a dog raised by old man Ming!
As a giant of the Mo family, and the seventh uncle who was once deeply respected by himself, how could he become like this?
Or is he never the same, but he's just been hiding it too well, and now that's who he is?
Ye Feng didn't know, he even felt a little strange.
If the battle between the giants of the Mo family back then, the fifth floor of the master demon really deliberately lost to Mo Qizhong, how could he choose a person like this to give the position of the Mo family giants and the future of the Mo family to the other party?
No matter what, Ye Feng only knew one thing, that is, from now on, he would have one less elder who was as kind and loving as a relative.
Mo Qizhong naturally didn't know what Ye Feng was thinking at the moment, and continued to tell: "After the matter in Hangzhou is over, you naturally want to go to Shaolin Temple with the secret brought back from the ancient city of Loulan in the desert, and go to the world-famous Master Ning Ran to solve your doubts." ”
"It's a pity, what you don't know is that this is a master of Ningzhi, and he and Old Man Ming have known each other for a long time, and their private friendship is very good. ”
What? Ye Feng was taken aback.
Mo Qizhong smiled proudly: "Do you think that the old monk can decipher the secret of the ancient scroll?" The abbots of Shaolin Temple have studied for so many years and still found nothing, is he really a genius who surpasses all the ancestors?"
"That's right, the reason why he was able to interpret the secrets in the Elder Scrolls so smoothly was actually because Old Man Ming was secretly guiding him, in fact, those were all the results of years of painstaking research by my Mo family and Jiangnan Ming family. ”
"Also
Yes, in the Shaolin Temple, which claims to have 10,000 volumes of rare ancient books, there are many extinct and unique books, especially the books that involve the secrets of ancient treasures, all of which are all searched by my Mo family and Jiangnan Ming family all over the world, unscrupulous means, and do everything possible to find them back. ”
He smiled sarcastically and said, "But you still think that Shaolin Temple is so sacred, how great it is, how great it is!"
It's no wonder that the Jiangnan Ming family and Mo Qizhong are so well aware of his whereabouts this time, and they also staged a play in front of the Broken Dragon Stone in advance, which naturally let Mo Qizhong blend into their team.
However, thinking of the solemn treasure of the master of Ningran, just the kind gaze when he was looking at himself, Ye Feng couldn't believe that this high monk would betray him.
At this time, Ye Feng suddenly remembered the boiling noise he heard earlier from the direction of the Broken Dragon Stone, and couldn't help but ask: "Since you have blended into our side, what about those people from the Ming family in Jiangnan? Old Man Ming should have come in person, right? It should be them who are gathered in front of the Broken Dragon Stone now, right?"
Since Mo Qizhong had followed Tang Taigong into the labyrinth twenty years ago, it was not uncommon for Old Man Ming to find a passage into the underground labyrinth.
Strangely, Mo Qizhong shook his head and said, "Now in front of the Broken Dragon Stone, it is not from the Jiangnan Ming family. ”
He thought for a moment before he continued: "If I guessed correctly, these people who are now guarding before the Broken Dragon Stone should be the sergeants led by Lord Zhao Zongru, the prefect of Xi'an. ”
Zhao Zongru and Ye Feng were taken aback again.
How did he end up here with his army? Besides, how did he learn about this secret passage to the underground labyrinth?
Mo Qizhong looked at his face full of confusion, sneered, and said, "You are really stupid enough, until now, you are still unaware of the people around you. The reason why Zhao Zongru was able to lead troops into here was clearly because someone had pointed out the way for him before, and most likely, in your team, someone secretly left a mark on him. ”
He looked directly at Ye Feng with his eyes and asked, "Think about it carefully, along the way, who walked at the end of the line, and who had the best chance to leave a mark unnoticed?"
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, he raised his eyebrows, and suddenly remembered someone.
Along the way, he has been acting timid, cowering, and has been walking behind the whole team, and the only one who is most likely to leave a mark without being noticed by others is his brother-in-law, Zhang Fatzi!
But then, he denied this idea in his heart.
Impossible, Zhang Fatzi grew up with him since childhood, how many ups and downs they have experienced together in the past few years, how many lives and deaths have they faced, how could Zhang Fatzi betray him?
Mo Qizhong watched the expression on Ye Feng's face change again and again, knowing that he already had an answer but didn't want to believe it, he shook his head and said, "Do you not want to believe that your good brother who is like a brother and sister would betray you? In fact, have you ever thought that the reason why we are able to stand here today is that there are too many coincidences in all this?"
"It's so coincidental that Shaolin changed that old monk will choose this time, it happens to be the eve of the Seven Stars Alignment to let Sun Lao Er take you to explore the secrets of the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum;
A righteous brother, that little fat man actually has a rare light skill in the world, and these two righteous brothers of yours have all played an indispensable role in the process of exploring the labyrinth before. ”
"The most coincidental thing is that when I passed through the room full of corpses and bones before, I saw you take a special look at the dagger that the little fat man used to fix the rope, the stone platform is extremely hard, but the dagger in the little fat man's hand can be inserted until it has no handle, it is obviously not an ordinary knife, Ye Gongzi must have recognized it, right?"
Ye Feng shook his head, but his face became very ugly.
Mo Qizhong smiled and said: "Why deny it? Actually, you and I have already recognized it, how many of them can be found in the world with such a simple style and sharpening iron like clay? This dagger should be the legendary divine weapon, the Fish Intestine Sword!"
"Back then, Ou Yezi, the master of sword casting in the Spring and Autumn Period, did his best to cast a total of five divine weapons, namely Zhanlu, Chunjun, Shengxie, Juque and Fish Intestines. And the fish intestine sword because of Gongzi Guang, that is, the later Wu Wang Lu, please specialize in holding the sword hidden in the belly of the fish to assassinate the king, and the world's fame, everyone knows, known as the sword of bravery. ”
"It's just that the whereabouts of this magic weapon have never been recorded again, and no one knows it. Some people say that it should be hidden in the tomb of King Wu Lu under the Sword Pond of Tiger Hill, but I have heard another theory. ”
"When Emperor Taizu pacified Chen Youliang's army in the first battle of Poyang Lake, he passed by Tiger Hill, and there was an old man at that time, holding this knife, dedicated to Emperor Taizu, and said that the world is all attributed to the Zhu family. As a result, this fish intestine sword was in the hands of the Ming Dynasty royal family. ”
Later, Emperor Taizu named Zhu Di as the king of Yan, guarded Beiping, and gave him this divine soldier before leaving, which means that he hopes that he can bravely crown the three armies and pacify the northern border for the country. Therefore, this fish intestine sword should be in the hands of Zhu Di, the king of Yan, that is, the current emperor. ”
"But," Mo Qizhong looked at Ye Feng and asked, "How did this divine weapon end up in the hands of your brother-in-law, this little fat man?"
Ye Feng didn't know, but he still instinctively excused his brother-in-law: "His father is the current British duke, and his military achievements are impressive, even if the emperor is grateful for his merits and gives them the fish intestine sword, it is not an uncommon thing." ”
Mo Qizhong shook his head, quite disappreciative of Ye Feng's sophistry: "This doesn't make sense, even if this fish intestine sword was given to his father by the emperor, this is not trivial, it is the emperor's grace, and it can only be worshiped at home, how can it be given to his son to bring it out for use privately?"
Ye Feng was speechless.
Mo Qizhong continued: "Also, now the Ming army implements the guard system, and the army dispatch is all controlled by the command post of the five armies, and the local civilian officials have no right to mobilize a soldier at all. He, Zhao Zongru, as a small governor of the state capital, is only a five-grade governor, how can he mobilize the army, and how can the army obey his command?"
Ye Feng couldn't answer.
Mo Qizhong sighed and said: "There is only one explanation for this, this Zhao Zongru is either a special identity, and it is by no means as simple as a small prefect on the surface. Either that, or he has a secret decree in his hands, and he can mobilize his army and act cheaply. ”
Ye Feng lowered his head, Mo Qizhong said it well, this seems to be the only most reasonable explanation at present.
Mo Qizhong smiled mysteriously and asked, "Then the final question comes, what did this Zhao Zongru do with his soldiers into the Qin Emperor's Mausoleum at this moment?"
