Chapter 172: Seeking Meaning in the Song
Leaving aside Du Xinrui's good plan to eliminate demons for the time being, Hua Feng returned to Jiuli City, and that day Elder Haoran was summoned into the palace by Jiuli Ancestor, asking them about the progress of finding the scroll of "Seven Evil Blood Refining Divine Skills", and gave him and Elder Guhe the task of quickly tracking down the scrolls.
After leaving the palace and returning to the palace, Elder Haoran's heart was like a boulder, and he felt an invisible huge pressure that was overwhelming him.
This pressure does not come from Jiuli Old Ancestor, but more from his responsibility for the life and death of the people of Jiuli. He believes that now the life and death of all the people in Jiuli City are all in his hands, if this matter is not concluded as soon as possible, the Jiuli clan may cease to exist, and the current matter of Jiuli is in danger.
Elder Haoran, who was sitting alone in the Incense Pavilion, looked at the fish swimming in the water uneasily, feeling disturbed, and now he had almost found nothing in his pursuit of the scroll of the "Seven Evil Blood Refining Divine Skills".
Now only this clue from Elder Mida made him feel a little relieved, but so far, all his suspicions about Lord Mida are just their wishful speculation, and there is no real evidence, so they are sure of Lord Mida's suspicions, and it is entirely possible that they will collapse in an instant, and then all his previous efforts will be in vain. If that happens, everything will go back to square one.
In his chaotic thoughts, Elder Haoran carefully and slowly brushed through the whole incident, hoping to find a breakthrough and break through the predicament he was currently in.
Elder Haoran sat cross-legged, he began to ring from the Demon Suppression Tower, the unstable increase in Mito's strength, the seven elders entered the Demon Suppression Tower, Jiuli Ancestor checked the scroll of "Seven Evil Blood Refining Divine Skills", Guhe and he were ordered to track down the "Seven Evil Blood Refining Divine Skills" scrolls, the three elders rushed to the land of Yunmeng, and then he and Elder Guhe visited the prince's mansion at night and other events were picked up one by one.
After about half an hour of sorting out his thoughts, Elder Haoran came to the conclusion that all the evidence and suspicions at present point to Mida, only Elder Mida is the most suspicious, and before he finds other clues, he should look for this clue to investigate, and there may be unexpected unexpected gains.
Elder Haoran secretly pondered, "If it was really Elder Mida who stole the scroll of the Seven Evil Blood Refining Divine Skill, he would definitely look for the best opportunity and the most hidden place to cultivate this peerless demonic skill.
However, his trip to Yunmeng, he happened to take advantage of the time and place, and he had the demon dragon as a cover, which was undoubtedly the best time and the best place for him to practice the "Seven Evil Blood Refining Divine Skills".
Elder Haoran looked up at the misty sky, the sun's brilliance was completely obscured by thick dark clouds, and not a single ray of sunlight could be revealed. His mood was unusually dull, and he said to himself meaningfully, "It seems that I should go and see Elder Naran." ”
......
Chi You and Ji Moyu had been imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison by Jiuli Ancestor for a while, and they originally thought that during this period, someone would definitely come to visit them, after all, they had been in the court, and they thought that they had met a lot of like-minded mentors and friends. But what they didn't expect was that when something happened to them, none of the mentors and friends they thought were good or helpful came to visit them, which made them very disappointed.
General Mo Yu complained and said: "General, tell me, those who call us brothers and sisters in ordinary times often talk about life and death in front of us, and what kind of love and righteousness are high. I didn't expect that as soon as we had an accident, we all flew away from each other when the fucking disaster came, and they didn't come to see us, what kind of brothers and friends are these, I think they are just a group of rabble, they are just vertical people, and they can't conspire with them. ”
General Chiyou said: "You don't have to complain there anymore, there is no point." He put his hand on the corner of his prison uniform, shook it, and said, "Look at the way we are now, do you think we are staying in a hotel? It is very glorious and glamorous? We are in prison!
Do you think anyone is willing to wade into this muddy water, and they can't hide yet? This can't be blamed on them, after all, this crime of killing the head is not an ordinary prison robbery, and the one who is not afraid of implicating himself and his family. We should be satisfied that they were able to intercede for us in the court that day, but do we really want them to accompany us to our death, and that is what is called deep affection?"
Chi You's words made Kill Moyu's temperament improve a lot, he quieted down and sat with Chi You, and he asked calmly: "General, do you say that the king will really cut off our heads?"
General Chiyou was silent for a while, he didn't have an exact grasp of this, he didn't want to let Kill Moyu have too much hope, as the so-called greater hope, the greater the disappointment, he didn't want Kill Moyu to stand in the cloud of hope now, in case they were guillotined that day, wouldn't he fall from the cloud of hope to the bottom of disappointment in an instant.
Chi You said coldly: "Maybe, are you afraid?"
Kill Moyu "snorted" and said: "I have been galloping on the battlefield with the general for so many years, general, when have you ever seen me greedy for life and afraid of death? A broken head is just a big scar in a bowl, what's so terrible?"
Chi You patted Mo Yu on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, as long as I, Chi You is here, even if you want to go to the guillotine, I won't let you go first." ”
Kill Moyu said: "In this life, I can go into battle with the general to kill the enemy, I have no regrets in this life, as long as the general is with me, don't talk about the guillotine, even if you go down to the eighteen layers of hell, what are you afraid of." ”
"If you can have a brother like you in this life, what more can you ask for?"
Chi You recalled the secret letter that Elder Haoran gave him, telling him not to act easily or despair, no matter when and where, and to believe in the king and respond to him. No matter how difficult it is or what predicament he is in, he will eventually turn the danger into a disaster, and finally take over the authority of Jiuli and achieve a brilliant achievement.
Chi You looked around at the cold, damp, and dim environment of the prison, and said to himself: "Elder, is this really a blessing, a curse, a curse, a blessing to rely on? Is this a blessing or a curse? Can I still trust you? Why don't you come to see me, as long as you come to see me, maybe my heart will be more stable." Are you also afraid that you will be implicated by me?"
......
The next day, Elder Haoran and General Chili came to Elder Naran's mansion and were warmly greeted and entertained by Elder Naran.
Elder Naran knew that Elder Haoran liked to drink tea the most, so he asked his subordinates to make a pot of high-grade cloud and mist green buds for him.
Elder Na Ran said, "Elder, you are proficient in the tea ceremony, how about a quick taste of this tea?"
Elder Haoran picked up the white jade porcelain cup, looked at the color of the tea soup, and said, "This soup is green and verdant, like a green gem, and it is even more dazzling and shining in this bowl." ”
Elder Haoran picked up the cup, approached his nose and sniffed it elegantly, and said, "It's refreshing and refreshing." ”
Elder Na Ran looked at Elder Haoran enjoying it very much, and was very happy, indicating that the cloud and mist green buds he brought back were indeed a good pot of tea, and it was not in vain that he had traveled thousands of miles to bring it back.
Elder Naran couldn't wait for Elder Haoran to taste it, wanting to see how this cloud hair tip tasted?
Elder Haoran took a sip and said, "It's sweet, sweet and delicious, and has an endless aftertaste, it's really a good tea." ”
Elder Na Ran said happily: "It's good if you like it, this is the best cloud mist green bud that I specially brought to you from the land of cloud dreams, and I was going to send it to you a few days ago, but there were some small episodes in it, so it has been delayed until now, and you came just in time today, so take it back by the way! ”
Elder Haoran felt very guilty that a few days ago, in order to avoid suspicion and prevent Jiuli Ancestor from mistakenly thinking that they were forming a party for personal gain, he did not come to visit Elder Na Ran.
Elder Haoran said with a little shame: "This is useless, how can I afford such a precious thing as an elder?"
"The elder knows, I don't know anything about the tea ceremony, no matter how good the tea is, it can only be used as plain water to quench my thirst, this is simply a tyrannical thing, or let it go to you, the place of the bosom friend, in order to reflect its quality and connotation. Don't be polite, they're all your own brothers, why be so polite?"
"The elder is so friendly, if I refuse it again, so as not to appear too hypocritical, then it is good, I will be respectful and obey the order, and accept the valuable thing of the elder. ”
"I just like your cheerful personality. Elders are generally going to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, I don't know why they came to my Naran Mansion today?"
Elder Haoran secretly considered that he couldn't go straight to the point and investigate and ask Elder Mida about Yunmeng, otherwise it would be easier to expose the theft of the "Seven Evil Blood Refining Divine Skills", which would cause unnecessary incidents, so he could only ask for help in the song.
