Chapter 16, Culpability of the Eight Parties
"Huh, so someone got on the boat before us?" the three men were surprised when they saw Lin Zheng slowly standing up in the wine pool.
"It's just a pity for this pool of spirit wine. The middle-aged man said, pulling out a long sword in his hand. Just as he was about to approach Lin Zheng, a halberd broke through the air behind him.
The man hurriedly turned around when he heard the sound of breaking the air, only to see a pitch-black halberd roaring towards him, and subconsciously took his sword to block it.
Bang!
After a loud bang, the halberd was stuck diagonally on the ground, and the sword in the middle-aged man's hand was also shaken out.
"Immortal stroke?" The middle-aged man jumped a few steps after being cautious and came to the other side of the wine pool, and the other two men hurriedly followed.
The three groups of men and horses looked at each other across the wine pool.
"Is that you?" the old man looked at Lin Zheng, and finally remembered the person who was stalking him who was slapped back by his palm.
"It's down there. Lin Zheng clasped his fists and said with a smile.
"What a slippery head, Jin Dan Xiu didn't even do anything to slap me, what peerless body protection magic skills did he practice?" The old man snorted coldly, and he didn't have a good impression of this person who was following his protégé.
"The old gentleman has a good way of dark energy, and it took a lot of effort for the younger generation to restore the status quo. When Lin Zheng spoke, he looked at the other three men, and Lin Zheng was also very surprised by the appearance of these three men, and the original plan to use this place to kill everyone quietly changed.
"Dare to ask these three people who are from White Emperor City?" Lin Zheng looked at the three men, the weapons in their hands were forged by the unique smelting method of White Emperor City, so Lin Zheng guessed.
"You doll, you have some knowledge. The middle-aged man saw that the scene was stable and there was no chaos for the time being, so he quietly retrieved his iron sword that was shaken away.
Seeing this, the old man also retrieved his halberd, and the disciples behind him also nervously held their weapons, not daring to make the slightest move.
"The kid is puzzled, is the old gentleman asking the ancestor of the Dao Sect?" Lin Zheng asked the old man again.
"Why am I telling you?!" the old man snorted coldly, but did not answer.
"It's the juniors who are abrupt, the juniors will introduce themselves first, my name is Lin Zheng, the young master of the Heavenly Master Pavilion. Lin Zheng said lightly with one hand on his chest.
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, the young man in front of them who looked no different from an ordinary scholar could actually be the Young Heavenly Master of the Heavenly Master Pavilion?
At first glance, everyone only felt that Lin Zheng was weak, and there was still a hint of shyness on his expression, but after knowing his true identity, he looked at it again, and found that his expression was faint and his conversation was extraordinary.
"Is there any evidence?" the old man and the middle-aged man asked at the same time, if today's Shige suffered heavy losses under the encirclement and suppression of the Zhou Dynasty, but its core was still retained, if it really killed their young Heavenly Master by mistake here, the Heavenly Master's reckless revenge would be unbearable for both the White Emperor City and the Daoist Sect.
"The Heavenly Master's order is here. Lin Zheng smiled, took out a wooden token from his arms, on which was written the word Heavenly Master, and the strange thing was that Heaven and Master each exuded different Tao rhymes, these two Tao rhymes were different but combined, and a feeling of harmony between yin and yang arose spontaneously.
"It's really the Heavenly Master's Order. The old man frowned, originally their strength was the strongest, and it was very likely that they would monopolize the treasure ship after killing the other two groups, but because Lin Zheng suddenly revealed his identity, he had to weigh the pros and cons.
"My friend turned out to be the master of the Heavenly Master Pavilion, disrespectful and disrespectful!" The middle-aged man suddenly laughed, obviously he also saw the doorway, and knew what kind of calculation Lin Zheng was fighting, so he took the initiative to show goodwill.
"It's just a young pavilion master. Lin Zheng pulled the tiger to make a big skin, pretending that the old master was still there, and replied with his fists.
"Old man, we have no grievances, why don't we turn hostility into jade silk and share the treasures on this ship?" Lin Zheng asked with a smile, although this ship of treasures is valuable, compared to the revenge of the Heavenly Master Pavilion, it is not so important.
"That depends on the division. The old man also knew that he couldn't offend two big forces at the same time, so he asked in a deep voice.
"Simple. Lin Zheng glanced at the three people in the White Emperor City: "Old man, you take forty percent, and the two of us are thirty percent each, how about it?"
This sentence is asking the old man, and at the same time, he is also asking the three people of the White Emperor City.
"Yes. The old man pretended to think for a long time, and made a reluctant look, but in fact, he didn't want the three of the White Emperor City to bargain again.
"Yes, but we have one more request. The three of them nodded in White Emperor City: "We also want a handful of Yan Taizu's corpse mud." ”
"Corpse mud?" the old man frowned: "Isn't Bai Di Mo practicing some evil skills?"
"Lord White Emperor is definitely not a person who cultivates evil skills, and it is estimated that he wants Yan Taizu's corpse mud for some research. The middle-aged man explained.
"Even you don't know?" said the old man and the White Emperor, who were of the same era, without the slightest concern.
"We believe in Lord White Emperor. The middle-aged man said.
"There is no Yan Taizu's corpse mud here at all, except for a tablet, not even a coffin. Lin Zheng pointed to a gold-inlaid jade Yan Taizu tablet behind him and said.
The three of the White Emperor City stepped forward to take a closer look, and sure enough, they found nothing, so they said with a wry smile: "We have searched each floor carefully, but we have found nothing, it seems that the task assigned by the White Emperor will not be completed." ”
"Yan Taizu's thoughts, we ordinary people can't guess, maybe there is such a big tomb somewhere in the land of Jiuzhou, and Yan Taizu is also lying there quietly. Lin Zheng shook his head and said helplessly.
"Now let's think about how to escape from here, the big Jiao is still waiting for us, wanting to have a full meal. Someone among the three people in White Emperor City said.
"It's a simple matter, that big Jiao didn't dare to get on the boat because he was afraid of something on this ship, we only need to get that kind of item, and we can get out safely." Lin Zheng said lightly.
"What about the spirit card?" the old man asked.
"I guess it's this spirit card. Lin Zheng turned around and took the spirit card into his hand, the jade spirit card was heavy and weighty, and at the same time, it also exuded a powerful majesty that made people want to kneel and worship.
"If we take the spirit card away, will the big Jiao destroy this big ship and let the treasure sink into the dark river?" the old man said suddenly.
"The old gentleman really thought it through, after we got off the boat, we only need to leave one person to bring the spirit card back, holding the spirit card on this boat is naturally extremely safe, at most one day, I believe that the Taoist friends of the Daoist Sect will gather people and horses to pull the treasure out......"
"What do you mean, I asked the Dao Sect to leave one person behind?" the old man snorted coldly.
"It doesn't have to be your sect, it's just that I didn't bring people and horses......" Lin Zheng looked embarrassed.
"That's it, I'll leave one person in White Emperor City. The middle-aged man said, looking at the man on his right.
"I am willing to wait here for your fellow Daoists. The man immediately clenched his fists.
"In that case, let's get off the boat?" Lin Zheng asked.
"Without further ado, it's better to gather people as soon as possible to bring the treasure back. The middle-aged man laughed and walked down the stairs past the old man first.
This defenseless appearance can't help but make everyone trust a little more.
"Old rivers and lakes. Lin Zheng scolded with a smile and walked down as well.
"On the contrary, it is my villain's heart?" the old man pouted and walked down the floor with many disciples.
Da Jiao saw someone walking out, his hundred-meter-long body kept fluttering in the water, and the huge waves hit everyone, and he was easily erased by the old man's true qi pouring like the water of a great river.
Seeing that Da Jiao did not dare to approach and finally retreated into the water, everyone was relieved to gather around the spirit card and walk on the iron lock.
The strange thing is that until everyone walked on the ground, the big Jiao never showed up again, and just as everyone was about to walk on the plank road, the big Jiao suddenly let out a strange laugh.
Coo-coo.
Everyone turned around and saw Da Jiao's body curled, and the dust that had fallen into the water before was being tightly comforted by Da Jiao, but it seemed that he was still alive.
"Old Ancestor, under the dark river is Yan Taizu's coffin!"
Then the serpent tightened its grip on the dust, causing it to let out a scream, and the old man was furious with the strange laughter.
"Beast, I want you to die!" The old man's halberd waved like the sunset of the long river stirring the heavens and the earth, and he actually directly used the method of sacrificing his life to ask the Dao Sect, and the eight directions were guilty.
"Old gentleman calm down!" Lin Zheng hurriedly shouted, but it was already too late.
In the old man's halberd wielding, the sunset scene has emerged, and the immortal's lifelong cultivation of thirty tricks has been added to this shot, and it collided with the single horn of the big jiao.
"Ancestor!" Da Jiao was in pain, his body was loosened, and the dust had already jumped off the ground and rushed to the old man who was spitting blood.
"Good boy, let's go, I don't have a few years to live. The old man touched the head of the dust, once the method of sacrificing his life was launched, there was no reversal, and the old man had given up his life to save the dust.
"Ancestor!" Fuchen cried bitterly, the old man has always treated him like a grandson, Fuchen has always respected the old man very much, but the old man died because of himself.
"Let's go!" Lin Zheng rushed forward and grabbed the dust, the old man couldn't live, but the dust could.
The old man glanced at Lin Zheng gratefully, and then the halberd waved again, fighting with the big Jiao: "I am the third ancestor of the Dao Sect, Dao Wuji!"
"Ancestor!!" the disciples cried.
"Let's go!" Lin Zheng's true anger pulled everyone up and walked onto the plank road.
Listening to the roar of the cave behind him, Lin Zheng's footsteps were firm: "Ask the three ancestors of the Dao Sect, Dao Wuji, Lin Zheng has learned today." ”
"I deserve to die in that dark river, why am I still alive. The dust followed Lin Zheng up the plank road to the top floor, crying bitterly.
At this time, the little toad jumped up and down to the dust, rubbing the dust's back affectionately.
"This ......" Fuchen was stunned for a while, Dao Wuji had told them what this little toad meant at the beginning, and at this time, the little toad was so intimate with him that everyone was suffocated.
"Yan Taizu's dragon qi has been transferred to you, and the little toad will naturally recognize you as the master. In the end, it was Lin Zheng who told the truth.
"You have been able to cultivate anew, go back early and bring someone to avenge Old Mr. Dao Wuji, just send the thirty percent treasure to Shuzhou. Lin Zheng looked at the dust, wanting to use the killer to eradicate the future enemy as soon as possible, but when he thought of Dao Wuji, he couldn't help it, so he had to leave this place as soon as possible.
