Chapter 122: The so-called true incense
"You don't want to mix it up, do you?" Hua Xiangrong looked at Shangguan Yi and pondered for a long time, as if he was struggling with something difficult to choose. She felt a little pain in her heart, this guy couldn't be trying to do something, right? The Dire people had already come, and this matter had risen to another level, where the two heavens could participate in very few situations. If he and Jun Yishen have a bad relationship, it's okay to take risks for him, but the relationship between the two of them can't be matched, and then it will be a bit of a trick to mix it up, right?
"Don't worry, I have nothing to do with Jun Yishen, no grudges or favors. I can help him if I can, but that's only because the world still needs a famous minister, that's all. As for the current situation, I know the danger, and I won't make any extraneous branches, not to mention that I still have to go to the Great Bright Temple, if I am involved in Jun Yishen, I don't know if the Great Bright Temple will go or not, and the prison may have to go through. There is no vanity under the fame, look at it, the Dire may not be able to please a good one. Shangguan Yi shook his head, he was just thinking about whether Jun Yishen's assassination also had something to do with the layout of the Lord of the Heavenly City.
"I hope you're not just talking. Hua Xiangrong said weakly, who knows if this guy will be hot-blooded and will not care about anything, even if he is not hot-blooded, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not go to troubled waters because of his own plans.
"We'll see. Let's go, let's see if the Buddha face is still good. Shangguan Yi saw her distrust, and didn't say anything, after all, he was indeed a little unusually concerned about Jun Yishen.
This world really needs a famous prime minister, Jun Yishen, but Zhongzhen doesn't need it, so Shangguan Yi wants to kill him and save him, is it contradictory? Yes, the position is different, from the perspective of Li Min's common people, Jun Yishen must not have an accident, but from the perspective of Zhongzhen's courtiers, the death of a Jun Yishen in the East China Sea can stabilize the border passes bordering it, and even use this to fight back, why not?
This is a contradiction, a contradiction that he does not yet know how to solve
Hua Xiangrong didn't know this, but thought about what Shangguan Yi said about the Buddha face, referring to the wooden plaque given by the monk? That thing was already very strong after they passed the pass, and they still wanted to rely on it to enter Jiangnan City? What do you think it is? Is it an edict issued by the Emperor of the East China Sea?
Shangguan Yi didn't explain her doubts, but just took her to Jiangnan City.
Yes, in the middle of the night, there is a small door open in Jiangnan City, this is the prosperous Jiangnan City, and it is also extremely rich, the night is never the end of the day, or not the end of the day for everyone, for some people, the arrival of darkness is the beginning of the day.
Although this door is open, not everyone can enter, in normal times, you may provide your identity certificate, pay some money and enter, but now it is different from the past, now only the certificate approved by the government of Jiangnan City and the strength of some high-ranking officials and nobles can pass through this nightless door at this time.
Shangguan Yi wants to enter this door, but his methods are very interesting. First, bribe the soldiers guarding the door, but even if they receive money, the other party still wants the identity certificates of the two of them, it is useless to give as much as you want, money is money, life is life, no matter how much money you give, I will not joke with my life. Accepting bribes is such a thing, even the above is acquiesced. But what they mean is: you can take money, but you can't make a mistake, and if something goes wrong, your head will say goodbye to your body, not even the slightest mistake.
Where did Shangguan Yi have a suitable identification to show him? So he secretly revealed that he was carrying out a special mission of the sect, and it was difficult to reveal his identity or something, otherwise he would cause trouble for the sect.
The soldier guarding the door was disdainful, and directly threw out a sentence: "If you can't get a suitable identification, don't think about going in today, just be honest, I won't arrest you." "He's been guarding the city gate for so long, what scene haven't you seen? Isn't it just the special mission of the division? Even if you come to mourn, you have to show me a proper identification, otherwise don't want to go in."
In fact, this is what Shangguan Yi had thought of a long time ago, if he collected some money, he would let them in, but Shangguan Yi did not dare to enter. At this time, it was time for the wooden card to play, Shangguan Yi approached the soldier, took out a wooden card and shook it in front of him, looking at the soldier's eyes from confused disdain (I can't recognize what this is, anyway, it's not an identity certificate and a customs clearance certificate) and then became: a trace of clarity and horror. The well-informed also recognized that this was a customs clearance wooden card issued by the Great Bright Temple, which was nothing strange in itself, that is, it had some relationship with a certain force and was taken care of, and the people behind felt that they needed to give me face, so they just let them go, so Shangguan Yi and the two of them had a green light all the way, unimpeded. But now, Shangguan Yi's operation of crossing the city gate with this wooden card is a bit commotionous, and the brothers who watched the gate were stunned.
He really hadn't seen this meeting.
He has seen the use of power tokens as proof of identity, and there are many, generally with identity problems, some can be put in, some can't, but with the token of the Great Light Temple, he has seen it for the first time.
This kind of thing is rarely distributed in the Great Light Temple, and even fewer are given to outsiders, and those great monks don't need this. Because Jiangnan City is not too far from the Great Light Temple, they will occasionally send some people to purchase items, and the soldiers guarding the gate also know these people who come out to purchase, so they don't need this kind of wooden sign at all. So it's normal that he didn't recognize it at first.
You know, they didn't show proof of identity, and it was impossible for them to explain these things on the wooden plaque, so it was inappropriate to let people who didn't know the details into it, even if it had something to do with the Great Light Temple. If this is replaced by other forces, it would be good to refuse directly, and there is no need to be so entangled, but this is the Great Light Temple. Although their style of acting is not like this, but the big forces have some of their own little secrets, which need to be dealt with secretly, and occasionally someone will do something unknown under their banner, which is also normal, he has seen a lot.
However, having said that, the problem is still in the four words 'Great Light Temple'. The height is unbearable, and the Great Light Temple stands high enough, and it is transcendent enough, but this is not the reason why others don't want to pull it into the water. On the contrary, they want to win over the Great Light Temple even more, as long as they get its support, then their strength in all aspects will increase by leaps and bounds. The imperial court of the East China Sea is one of the forces that think so, and Jun Yishen is also the promoter of this matter, he wants to enshrine Buddhism as the state religion of the East China Sea, and then attract some monks of the Great Light Temple to go to Kyoto in the East China Sea to sit down, so as to completely tie the Great Light Temple to their chariot, instead of relying on some insignificant interests to have a little connection, which side has to do something out of the ordinary and have to fight the fragile relationship.
The soldiers defending the city did not understand this, but they were repeatedly asked by the above to be polite to the people who came from the Great Light Temple, not to make them angry, let alone to turn them away. Who let this be a place frequented by some people in Jiangnan City and the Great Bright Temple? So over time, he had special preferential treatment for the people of the Great Bright Temple, even for some monks who were unimportant at first glance and had no status.
So now, he's very struggling and doesn't know what to do.
There is a saying that if you hesitate, you will lose. The moment the soldiers defending the city hesitated, he had already lost.
Hua Xiangrong watched Shangguan Yi fool the soldiers defending the city and believe that they were the ones who participated in the secret selection mission of the Great Bright Temple, came here to replenish their supplies, and then continued to set off. She waxed him in her heart. It's good that they're not here to do something, otherwise you really wouldn't be able to eat and walk around, and you dare to believe what others say after so many years here.
Shangguan Yi's reason is actually quite perfect, he didn't say that he was participating in the secret selection task of the Great Bright Temple, but this task does exist, as for whether this session is carried out or not, he doesn't know, but this does not prevent him from fooling others with this.
Shangguan Yi said speciously, and the soldiers defending the city had already sketched the image of the two of them in their hearts: because of participating in the special selection task, they had to temporarily give up their identities and perform tasks as subordinates of the Great Bright Temple, and it was normal for them to not be able to get their identity certificates at this time, after all, once they were selected, it would have nothing to do with the past. Therefore, adaptability in this regard is also one of the criteria for adjudication. At this time, they needed to enter the city, and they showed the wooden sign given by the Great Light Temple to show their clarity.
To sum up, yes, it must be given. The people selected by the special selection task are all the heirs of some monks in key positions, that is to say, these two in front of him are likely to be important figures in the Great Guangming Temple in the future, how dare he not let them go?
In this way, they took the soldier's proof of entering the city, and walked into this exquisite city shrouded in darkness openly, and the style of various buildings is quite different from that of the East China Sea, perhaps this is the cultural difference between Zhongzhen and the East China Sea, or there would not be so many travelers who are determined to travel all over the world and see all the scenery in the world.
"Huh, man's mouth, deceitful ghost, you are so cunning, you must be invincible to deceive girls, say, how many ignorant girls have been harmed?"
"One. Shangguan Yi was blunt.
"Who, let's hear it?" Hua Xiangrong was a little excited, but he didn't expect this guy to take the initiative to confess, and of course he was excited to listen to the gossip.
"It's you, I was abducted here with a few casual words, it's not too easy, what do you say? "This is a counterattack from Shangguan Yi in time.
"How do you speak, what do you mean to be abducted here?" Hua Xiangrong was suddenly unhappy, and grabbed Shangguan Yi's ears to count him down.
"Stop, stop, find a place to settle down first, and remember the accounts first, aren't you tired?" Shangguan Yi hurriedly changed the topic, he didn't want to get into trouble with Hua Xiangrong on the street because of this kind of thing, it was about the reputation of the girl's family, he had to think about her.
"Also, I'm not only tired, but also hungry, go eat something delicious, you have a treat. Hua Xiangrong let go of his hand, rubbed his stomach, and said slyly, I want to slaughter you a miser, the consumption level of Jiangnan City is not low.
"No problem, let's find an inn first. Shangguan Yi led the horse and walked around the street, he wanted to find out what Qingge's stronghold was here.
"That's it, Yanyu Inn, I like the name. As she walked, Hua Xiangrong suddenly pointed to an inn and said.
The crisp and pleasant sound fell into people's ears, and people couldn't help but find the owner of the voice, passers-by were surprised by Hua Xiangrong's beauty, even if they were used to seeing the beauty of Jiangnan women, they had to admit that Hua Xiangrong's appearance was top even in Jiangnan.
Shangguan Yi didn't feel anything about this, and glanced at those who were watching Hua Xiangrong with some frowns, the warning in his eyes couldn't be more obvious, and then looked at the inn that Hua Xiangrong said, was stunned, and said, "Okay." ”
The smoke and rain of this smoke and rain inn are all semi-hieroglyphs (probably a part of the text is embodied into a specific scene to describe the meaning of the text, I don't know what it is called, hhh) The points are written as the appearance of smoke and rain, and they are not repeated. There is one point in the word rain that is the hallmark of Qingge: the flowing water of musical notes. I don't know if Hua Xiangrong is intentional, but the inn she chose happens to be the inn that Shangguan Yi is looking for, and her sentence just gives them a reason to stay here, and it won't seem deliberate.
Shangguan Yi and the two of them entered the Yanyu Inn, Shangguan Yi asked for two good rooms next to each other, and then arranged the store with hot water and meals and other things, and used a password to connect with them in the middle, expressing their needs, and finally entered the room under the leadership of Xiao Er.
This time they were separated, they didn't sleep in the same room, and no one recognized them in a foreign place for the time being, so why did the killer chase after them? Even if there were some thieves with bad intentions, they might not be able to deal with Hua Xiangrong, or they would definitely not be able to deal with Hua Xiangrong, so Shangguan Yi could rest assured to do his own thing, that is, what he had to do when choosing this inn.
"Tuk-tuk, tuk-tuk, tuk. There was a knock on the door, which meant that an intelligence division had come to dock, and Shangguan Yi naturally didn't mean to avoid people, so he let him in.
This person was dressed as Xiao Er, carrying two food boxes, one of which contained food, and the other contained a machine box from Shangguan Yiyao, as well as paper and pencils.
"What's the situation in Jiangnan City recently?" Shangguan Yi asked unceremoniously, while picking up a pen and paper and starting to write a letter.
Xiao Er looked invisible and laid out the meal. kept in his hands, and said on his lips: "Recently, the situation in Jiangnan City has been slightly tense, and Jun Yishen seems to want to completely bring this rich city to his side, but he was assassinated, a very blatant assassination, but Jun Yishen was still injured, and it was not light, but it was not a big deal, but the situation was tense." That assassination was not so much an assassination as a warning to him not to do anything superfluous. ”
The answer given by Xiao Er made the movements in Shangguan Yi's hand stop slightly, a little unexpected, this situation has become a bit interesting, provoke it first, and then kill it with one blow?
"Is there a way to send the news to Jun Yishen without revealing his feet?" Shangguan Yi continued to write, but put forward a somewhat troublesome condition.
"I'm afraid it's difficult, on the surface, Jun Yishen can only rely on the strength in Jiangnan City to do all kinds of measures, but Jun Yishen can do this now, do you think he may be just a reckless man? He definitely hides a lot of power in secret, as for how much, we can't guess, but we just vaguely grasp a little. Xiao Er shook his head, saying that this matter was very difficult to do.
"What about our relationship with the East China Sea, no, and the current Emperor of the East China Sea, how about it?" Shangguan Yi asked without raising his head, to survive on other people's territory, you must have a good relationship with others, this is the most basic principle, of course, it is normal for people to look down on their Qingge, and the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse.
"This, actually... It can only be said that it is better than normal, but it is not reliable, and some of them have a little relationship, but these people are down, and it is not worth investing too much, so the progress is not much. Xiao Er said matter-of-factly, and did not hide anything because of unsatisfactory results.
"Do you know the news that the Dire is coming to Jiangnan City?" Shangguan Yi turned to the matter of the Dire, which was what he wanted to discuss with Xiao'er.
"Dire is coming to Jiangnan City?!" Xiao Er was a little surprised, obviously not knowing.
"Yes, on the way to Jiangnan City, I saw four people carrying a white sedan chair and an old man muttering strange words, this should be the power of the Dire, right?" Shangguan Yi put away his pen and blew the ink on the letter, there was nothing to write to Fu Changan, although he had a lot of words to say to her, but he couldn't write it.
"That's right, Dire's spirit, a very difficult guy, the four ghosts carry the sedan chair and take care of things, she shouldn't have come yet, and when she comes, something will happen. It is recommended that if you don't have anything to do in Jiangnan City, you should leave as soon as possible. That's a madman, who dares to do anything. Xiao Er's face was also a little solemn, he couldn't understand the matter of Dire, this time I am afraid that it is not Jun Yishen, Jun Yishen is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and it is not known who will kill the deer at that time, and it must be the innocent people below who will suffer.
"You all seem to be jealous of them, but I don't know about it. Shangguan Yi smiled and put the letter and the box containing the jade pendant into the box and locked it.
"Dire is a notorious killer organization, their strength is very strong, there are four masters in the late stage of the Triple Heavens, the code name is the Demon of the Spirit, and their leader is a half-step Quadruple Heaven horror master, codenamed Nightmare Demon. They acted unscrupulously and killed innocents indiscriminately, but no one could sanction them, so it is true that no one dares to provoke them. Xiao Er briefly explained the situation of the Dire, and then promised to give a detailed information about the Dire when the hot water was delivered later.
"So, do you think this news should be told to Jun Yishen?" Shangguan Yi threw this thorny question to Xiao Er, wanting to hear his opinion.
"Jun Yishen is a talented person, just for the people of the East China Sea, I hope he can live and keep the East China Sea safe and healthy for 30 years. This is my selfishness, I am an intelligence officer, so I know a lot of things, this world chaos is gradually rising, and talented people are needed to govern it. But I'm also just an informant, that's all. "Xiao Er said the proportions of his words very cleverly, he is an intelligence master and a citizen of the East China Sea, knowing that there is a catastrophe, it is natural that Jun Yishen, who is unwilling to determine the existence of the Seagod Needle, has an accident, but he said that he is just an intelligence master, which means: No matter what I think, as long as I disagree with your opinion, I will not go against your wishes. Because of the food of the king, the matter of loyalty to the king, this is his duty, he does not know the identity of Shangguan Yi, but he also knows that this is the person above and needs some intelligence support, so he is very conscientious to entertain Shangguan Yi.
"He does have great talents, but it's a pity why is such a person in the East China Sea?" Shangguan Yi pinched his pen and thought, he may be the butterfly flapping its wings now, and it is not yet known what kind of storm it will cause, but whether to flap his wings or not, and in which direction to fan it is another matter.
"Eh~", Shangguan Yi let out a long sigh, his temperament is like this, if he is not hostile to me, he is despicable and obscene, if he is not an enemy, he can threaten my most important thing, he is not willing to do this kind of thing. Maybe standing by and watching is not a fall in the eye of many people, but as Shangguan Yi, who believes in the fat tiger theory, he feels that as long as he doesn't stop the fat tiger from bullying people, then he can be regarded as the accomplice of the fat tiger.
It's a bit extreme, but he really thinks so.
In this matter, it is self-evident who the notorious Dire and Jun Yishen, who shoulders the burden of the East China Sea, help.
Yes, he chose to help Jun Yishen, even if it may be to dig a hole for himself, he has to do it, just for a person who is worthy of himself.
"Whew. Shangguan Yi wrote a few lines on a letter, then threw it to Xiao Er, saying, "Go and disguise it as a blood book, and then prepare a strong bow for me, and I'll deliver the letter in a while." ”
Xiao Er was a little confused, he naturally guessed a little bit of Shangguan Yi's thoughts, and said that it was disguised as a blood book, and the content in it was probably the opposite, that is, to mention Jun Yishen. But the way you send the letter... Isn't it too arrogant to shoot directly at someone's door? Aren't you afraid of annoying Jun Yishen, not only will you not fall for favor, but you will be hunted down and killed by him?
"Go, the mountain people have their own tricks. Shangguan Yi urged impatiently, he saved his future possible rivals, this kind of thing, in other circumstances, he would not do it, he felt stupid.
"Okay. "Xiao Er packed up the trap box and took it away, and as soon as possible tomorrow, this box will leave Jiangnan City and go to where it should go as quickly as possible. The rest of the things were handled by Xiao Er in an orderly manner, and his ability to do things was really good.
After a while, Shangguan Yi finished eating, took the information about Dire that Xiao Er had just sent over, and suddenly felt a little cowardly, if this was targeted by them in the East China Sea, would he still be confused? With Dire's mad dog-like nature, if you let them know that you have ruined their good deeds, they will be with you forever, and if you have to kill you, it will not be easy to hide anywhere, they will be your nightmares, the kind of nightmares that torture you to death.
"Bang, bang, grunt......"
When Shangguan Yi was struggling, Hua Xiangrong's room exploded, an object was kicked away, broke through the window and fell to the ground, rolled a few times before stopping, and I don't know if I was still alive.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Shangguan Yi rushed into Hua Xiangrong's room as fast as he could, and then rushed back at a faster speed, and only after slamming the door closed did he lean against the door and breathe a sigh of relief.
Hua Xiangrong is only wearing underwear, wet appearance, extremely fragrant. Apparently he had just climbed out of the bathtub, but he didn't expect to meet a flower thief. It's a pity that the time when the flower thief came was a little worse, and Hua Xiangrong was not a weak girl, and the person was immediately kicked below by the angry Hua Xiangrong, although he didn't die, but he was not lightly injured. As a result, there were waves of unevenness, and how could Shangguan Yi be able to escape when he rushed over at this time? Thanks to his quick reaction, otherwise he would have been beaten to the point where he couldn't get out of bed.
After a while, Hua Xiangrong tidied up her appearance and walked out with a brocade handkerchief wrapped in her hair, and the anger between her eyebrows and eyes had not subsided.
Shangguan Yi scolded angrily before she could speak: "Damn flower thief, you dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head and take advantage of you, even if he doesn't see anything, I won't let him go." You wait here, I'll go and go back, and I'll get justice for you!" With that, he strode out of the inn, as if to find the thief.
Shangguan Yi looked angry and looked at Hua Xiangrong and was stunned, what is going on with this guy? Wasn't he still fine when he first entered the inn? Why didn't he see him for a while... Is this the news that my ancestral grave was dug up by that flower thief?
Hua Xiangrong didn't worry about him, but when she came back to her senses, how could she keep up with Shangguan Yi when she went to find him? Helpless, she could only wait for news here, but her room didn't want to go back, and it was a mess, so let's stay in Shangguan Yi's room for a while.
In fact, what did Shangguan Yi do?
Hua Xiangrong encountered this kind of thing, he was naturally angry, after all, your good friend was bullied, how could he not be angry? But he would not go out on the spot to make trouble on the spot with such an exaggerated attitude, a posture that he would not finish without picking his skin, this is unrealistic, and it is not his temper. What he has to do is to clean up the flower thief first, and then change his identity to do an arrogant thing, how arrogant and arrogant, arrogant things that make the entire Jiangnan City a sensation.
Yes, just now he scolded Tai Sui for breaking ground on his head, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. At this time, it will be his turn to be really fragrant, and he will also go to Tai Sui to dig on his head and move the ground.
