Volume 2: Lotus and Dragon Lying Chapter 95 The Shadow Behind It
The man was dressed in prison clothes, and his messy hair hung down like seaweed.
There were not many scars on his body, he was very dirty, and his hands were covered with stone shackles, which shone slightly.
That's the forbidden demon lock, it's something that suppresses the Yuan power of the Yuan.
Even though the old man's face was covered in blood and his hair was hanging like a curtain in front of him, Robert could still recognize the man in front of him.
Robert looked at the man who seemed to be unconscious, and shook his head slightly.
It won't be wrong, this familiar breath, the every move that I will never forget, a smile.
That loving smile, that steady, natural footsteps, that back that seemed to glow from the whole body downwards.
He always walked in front of him, like the sun he had been chasing.
"Child, you have to be a useful person, not useful to me, not useful to this family, but useful to the people, to the country. ”
"Child, you have grown up, General Xiaocai, I am proud of you, and you must remember that your sword is to protect those behind you who are looking forward to you, and not to let them down. ”
"Child, I'm already in my last years, I'm afraid that my time is running out, and I still have so many things to do. ”
"Father. Robert looked at the old man in front of him, and finally couldn't help but cry out.
The moment he shouted those two words, he burst into tears and knelt down.
The old man looked up, his consciousness very confused.
"Luo ...... Gauze...... Special. ”
The old man Xu was very weak, his voice was very low, and his words were very unclear.
"Father!" cried Robert, as if a flood had broken a levee.
Changsun Jing looked at this picture silently and sighed heavily.
"He is the man who tried to kill the chief of the court in the grave that day. ”
"And those incantations of his, which are the twisted power that sucks the souls of others to nourish their own bodies. ”
"The plague of burnts, the merchants who provided the oil and the materials, the priests who provided protection, and many others who went undiscovered, were all his accomplices in this trouble. ”
These three words stabbed Robert in the heart like three sharp swords, and he fell to the ground and shook his head in disbelief.
The eldest grandson Jing knew that it was cruel to say this, but Robert had the right to know these facts.
Changsun Jing was also very sad, after all, it was his old friend for many years, the scholar who had been chattering behind him many, many years ago, the young man who liked to tinker with all kinds of gadgets.
The room was silent, except for the sobbing of one person.
Looking at Robert, who had already lost his soul on the ground, Changsun Jing sighed, shook his head, and turned around and walked outside.
At this time, a subordinate officer ran towards Changsun Jing.
"My lord, it's not good, the ministers are angry, and many ministers are blocked in the Qiantai Palace, and they can't afford to kneel. ”
"What?" Eldest Sun Jing was suddenly startled and looked at the subordinate official.
Eldest Sun Jing immediately made a decision and ordered: "Prepare horses immediately, rush to the Yuan Palace, and some people, go and inform Gao Xun!"
As he spoke, the eldest grandson Jing strode towards the outside of the mansion.
"What's going on?"
"It's the last time, the ministers are dissatisfied with the arbitrariness of the head of the Cha'an Division, and demand that the hall master immediately stop his duties. The soldier followed behind Changsun Jing and said, "There is also the guilt of the Shangshu of the Ministry of Advice, and I heard that it seems that Lord Li is attacked for indiscretion and non-compliance with the etiquette law, these hall masters have basically approved, and some ministers are very dissatisfied, so they came here to admonish." ”
Hearing this, Eldest Sun Jing nodded, understood the matter in general, and quickened his pace.
At this time, the Qiantai Palace.
Yu Linwei blocked the gate of the Qiantai Hall at this time, confronting the ministers.
It is said to be a confrontation, but if this group of ministers is extremely patient and insists on rushing forward, they have no way at all.
It's not that you can't beat it, most of the ministers are not Yuan, so it's no problem to take it.
The problem is that the sword has no eyes, and seeing blood on the mouth of the Qiantai Hall is a fatal matter for the sky to fall, no one dares to take this responsibility, if these ministers really want to rush, they have to get out of the way.
But the hall master was also angry with them, and issued a strict order not to let one in.
They had to look at each other, torn between what to do.
Many of the ministers under the stairs held jade wat and music folds, and their sharp eyes passed through the guards of these people, pointing straight to the Qiantai Palace.
Sometimes, it doesn't take too many words, a look can explain many things, and looking at the way they look, they are not willing to give up today.
The hand holding the sword was already soaked in sweat.
The ministers were starting to get impatient, too.
"Chief Sun Wei, what is the matter of the ministers and others, what is the hall master thinking about here?" a general was already very unbearable, and asked with a single sword forward.
The Yulin Guard Chief frowned and looked at the general in embarrassment.
"Lord Qiyu, the hall master is gone, and we can't do anything about it. ”
"If the hall master doesn't see us, we'll go to see the hall master, what are you doing here. The general shouted.
"........." Yulin Weichang was very helpless.
There was no way, so he had to bite the bullet and arch his hand: "My lord, I am waiting to stay here on the order of the hall master, and you can't go in without the order of the hall master." ”
But that general is usually a master who is not good at talking, and now when he sees this scene, he immediately shouted: "I don't care, I want to see the hall master, I have delayed the major affairs of the state, and you can't afford to be a little guard chief!"
Saliva splashed Yu Lin Wei Chang's face, and even so, Yu Lin Wei Chang still had to pay for his smiling face.
"My lord, if you don't go back first, maybe tomorrow the hall master will see you. "We are also acting on orders, so don't embarrass us." ”
At this time, a very dignified-looking civil servant tugged at the sleeve of the general's coat.
The general comprehended, glared at the Yulin Guard, snorted coldly, and retreated.
Na Wenchen stepped forward, glanced at Ji Yuan, and said with a hint of toughness in his tone: "The hall master is gone, the Yulin guard chief is acting on orders, and we will not embarrass it, since this is the case, we will kneel here, when will the hall master see it, when will we get up." ”
The Yulin Guard was originally relieved, but when he heard it, his brows tightened again.
It seems that this group of ministers still don't give up, they are determined to see the hall master today.
What happened to this group of ministers that they could get together with the hall master?
Yu Linwei really couldn't figure it out, of course, the situation in front of him was enough for him, and he didn't have any way.
It's fine for these ministers to kneel here, but most of these people are grumpy generals, maybe they will rush to the palace when they can't bear it, and the scene is chaotic at that time, the sword has no eyes, if it hurts any of the ministers, it is a fatal thing, and it is not to stop it, and it is not to stop it.
Now he could only pray, pray that these ministers would be sensible.
At this time, God bless the county town
A few dark shadows leaped across the rooftops.
With a "bang", the men landed on a slightly higher roof.
By the moonlight, he could vaguely identify Xing Yuan's appearance, and there were seven or eight people behind him, except for Yingchen Ji, Ah Meng and Shang Ji, the rest were the people that Li Moqi allocated to Ji Yuan.
Ever since he had pretended to be a ghost in Master Winterel's mansion that night and fished out a weak-hearted butler, he had finally learned something about those black knights.
He didn't know who those black knights were, only that they were also capable of terrifying magic, and their methods were extremely cruel, often cutting off the heads of corpses, turning them into zombies, hanging their heads under horses' heads, and burning them with some strange flames.
This is also what Shang Ji saw that day.
Three years ago, Winter felt that the end was approaching, and on a rainy day, a mysterious man visited and talked with Winter for nearly four hours, and later, the mysterious man was "killed" by Winter
Not long after, Winter also "disappeared" after entering the mountain, and was buried in Mangshan at first, and then moved to the Holy See with Robert's permission.
After that, Winter changed his identity and began to work with some people, including the Yuan Gang from outside the city.
He and some people in the Holy See sucked the souls of those people to nourish Shouyuan, and those people asked for the heads of corpses, bandits, and merchants, but they also took what they needed
Later, Winter was arrested, and the men in black did not appear for a long time.
The butler was really frightened by the ghost they pretended, and although he was silent about the deal between him and Winter, the rest of the information was extremely useful.
The men each twisted some white powder from their storage rings. The Yuan Force in his hand flowed, and the powder actually burned like a flame.
Lingyin powder can sense hidden things within a certain range.
In the past two days, they have been tracking down those black-clothed people in the county town, and Li Moqi has used all his strength to sift him through the county city like a sieve.
As long as they are caught, the initiators can be arrested, and they can be regarded as worthy of the unjust souls of the past three years, and even the burnt ceremony.
The subtle perception of the stars is like that of an eagle owl in the night.
Suddenly, he heard the humming of steel.
"Be careful!" Xing Xuan shouted, and Red Lotus slammed into front of a colleague.
With a "dang" sound, a shining lancet rubbed on the red lotus, grinding out the sparks.
said that it was too late, and it was fast, Xing Xuan had already jumped out, and as soon as the "Three Dragons Feng Ying" stood up, a Yuan Force had already been cut out, and it went straight to the darkness.
The movement here has been sensed by other people, and they are rushing to this side one after another.
"Bang, hum~" With a few dull sounds, everything fell silent again.
Xing Xuan arrived quickly, but he also pounced.
It looked like a raven, and the black feathers fell from there and landed in Xingxi's hands.
"Chasing, Xiaoxuan?" asked Ying Chenji.
"I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up. Xing Zhen sighed, "Let's go back first, I'm afraid we still need manpower." ”
At this time, the Yuan Palace
The ministers and the hall master continued to confront each other.
A general finally couldn't bear it anymore, roared angrily, pulled out the sword at his waist, and pointed straight at the Qiantai Palace.
Infected by him, some of the other generals also stood up abruptly and drew their swords from their waists.
Seeing this, the Yulin Guard Commander hurriedly widened his eyes and waved his right hand.
Those Feather Forest Guards all raised their blades.
The sweat of the Yulin Guard Chief suddenly flowed, and his raised arm hung in the air, not knowing whether to fall or not.
The chief of Yulin had to complain bitterly, some contradictions in the official family, what is the matter if he has to be mixed in.
Just when those generals strode forward and the Yulin Guard was at a loss, suddenly, a shout came from far outside the hall.
"The general has arrived!"
This shout immediately attracted everyone's attention, and even the Yulin Guard Chief looked into the distance.
The eldest grandson Jing strode over, and soon, he came to the side of the ministers.
"General!" those ministers all saluted to the eldest grandson Jing.
"General. Yulin Wei Chang arched his hand.
Eldest Sun Jing nodded, and was about to head towards the hall.
Naturally, the Chief of the Feather Forest Guard stretched out his arm and blocked him.
Eldest Sun Jing glanced at Yulin Weichang, and the corners of his mouth rose: "Okay, it can be regarded as dutiful." ”
Just as Changsun Jing turned his head to leave, a voice came from the inner room.
"Is the teacher here? Come in. ”
Hearing this, Eldest Sun Jing turned his head and narrowed his eyes.
The Yulin Guard Chief was stunned for a moment, then lowered his arm and arched his hand to the general.
Immediately, the eldest grandson Jing walked straight into the hall.
