Chapter 43: A Great Change in Temperament
In an underground secret room outside Xiangyang City, a handsome young man was scolding the people kneeling down the stage.
This secret room is huge, covering an area of nearly 1,000 acres, and the secret room is divided into various areas, and the whole looks like a small palace. Now the secret room is brightly lit, and in the largest venue, the people are clearly hierarchical, and the seating arrangements are also very stylish, except for the top step, the seats at the bottom are scattered on both sides, from top to bottom, in order. And on the top level, there is only one seat, and it is the owner of this small palace, Ximen Qing.
That's right, this secret room is the base of the Red Flower Building. The people below are all important members of Honghualou in or near Jingzhou. And these important members are all dressed in black, with face scarves covering their faces, and others have no way of knowing who they really are, and can only distinguish the rank according to the color of the scarves they carry. They received the Red Flower Order issued by the Lord of the Red Flower Building, and they all tried every means to return. At this moment, in the midst of the crowd, several men and women were kneeling there, they were all wearing the clothes of the Nangong family, and one of them was Nangong Yunmeng's personal maid Xiaocui.
Xiao Cui knelt there, didn't dare to raise her head, her voice trembled, and explained, "Master, that Huang Xiaoqiang is strong in martial arts, and we are not opponents." Xiao Cui said this, and the others also followed, "Yes, yes." He replied.
Ximen Qing snorted, "Martial arts?" After speaking, he patted the armrest, and the whole person suddenly disappeared, and then appeared in front of Xiao Cui again. "Is it so high?" Such a long distance, it can be transferred in just a moment, and the light power is unparalleled. All the members of the Honghua Building present admired the martial arts displayed by Ximen Qing at this moment.
Xiao Cui felt the invisible coercion on Ximen Qing's body, and her heart was extremely flustered, "The master's martial arts are unparalleled in the world, how can Huang Xiaoqiang's scorching fire compete with the master's sun and moon." The others chimed in.
Ximen Qing was very happy when he heard this, and laughed a few times, "Very good, very good." After speaking, his face changed, and he waved his hand, only to hear a few people shouting a few times, and the people next to Xiaocui were all sucked dry by Ximen Qing in an instant. Ximen was relieved, recovered, and said coldly, "I can't complete the task, but I still have the face to come back to see me." ”
Seeing this, many of the black-clothed people present wanted to get up and persuade something, but pressed back again.
Xiao Cui tilted her head and looked to both sides, the living people just now would all become dried corpses, and the death was extremely miserable, Xiao Cui hurriedly kowtowed, "The master spares his life, the master spares his life." After knocking a few times, there was already blood on her head, but Xiaocui showed no signs of stopping.
Ximen Qing didn't stop him, just watched there. When Xiao Cui kowtowed to his satisfaction, he sneered, "Those people don't even know the news of Nangong Yunmeng's disappearance, what do I want them to do." As for you, remember your many years of faithfulness, spare your life today, and step aside. ”
Xiao Cui thanked him again and again, and then quickly retreated. In a moment, several more people quickly came up and carried the dried corpses down.
After Xiaocui went out, Ximen Qing ordered, "The time has come, everyone take off their face towels and see each other." ”
It turned out that in Ximenqing's Honghua Building, in addition to the killer, there were also a lot of undercover agents that he had worked hard to cultivate. In order to prevent the occurrence of 'an undercover agent being caught and leaking other people's information', the people in the Honghua Building are not clear to each other. In the world of Honghualou, there are only the time, place, and characters of the mission. When performing tasks, there are no names for each other, only ranks and code names.
Everyone took off their face towels and looked at each other curiously, and many people looked extremely surprised. Among these, there are generals, wealthy businessmen, martial arts knights, and famous disciples. And some of them are usually the same two people, and the two of them glanced at each other, and they could only extinguish the anger in their hearts.
"I don't care how much hatred you have had before, but, from this day forward, I want you to cooperate with each other and know who are your own. At the same time, all the officials will follow me into the palace at the beginning of tomorrow, and I will appoint Mrs. Liu Sheng's wife Dongfang without tears as the new king of Chu. At the same time, the order will be sent down, and the members of the rudder in various places will respond to the call at any time to respond internally, and I want the world to be in my hands in the near future. And when I reign in the world, you are the founding heroes, and I will naturally reward you for your meritorious deeds. ”
"Thank you, lord!" all the members knelt down to thank him.
"If you have anything else to say, if not, let's all step down. ”
All the members looked at each other, and none of them spoke.
Ximen Qingyi waved his hand, "It's all gone, Ouyang Junyou, you stay." ”
This Ouyang Junyou is the owner of Baibao Building, no one can imagine that he is the Ah Da who is above 10,000 people under Honghua Building.
"Lord, what else do you have to order?" Ouyang Junyou arched his hand and bent forward to ask.
"Usually you have the most ideas, why didn't you say a word today?" Ximen Qing said this is enough to highlight Ouyang Junyou's status, for the other members of the Red Flower Building, all they can do is accept the task, without the slightest right to speak. But this Ah Da has a unique right, he can express his opinions at the same time as Ximen Qing's questioning. After the two discussed, they got the final decision.
Ouyang Junyou smiled slightly, "The wisdom of the lord is beyond the world, everything is under control, and as a subordinate, you just need to act according to orders, so it doesn't matter whether you say it or not." ”
Ximen Qing snorted, "When I killed those people just now, you didn't want to stop me. Say it, say what you want to say. ”
Ouyang Junyou thought for a moment and took a deep breath, "Then the lord, the subordinates will make it clear." The subordinates think that all this is happening too fast, and Governor Fang needs to slow down, and he can't reach it quickly!"
Ximen Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, "Oh?
"The subordinates believe that there are three things that the lord has not done well this time. First, although the king of Chu has a posthumous child, but now the child is still in the womb, I don't know if it is a man or a woman, it's okay if it's a boy, if it's a female baby, then. Second, the king of Chu had just died, Huang Xiaoqiang fled, although there were ministers who testified that it was Huang Xiaoqiang who killed the king, but the lord and the horse seized power, although the timing was excellent, but it was inevitable that people would leave a handle, which would have a great impact on the future lord and monarch in the world. Third, although Huang Xiaoqiang is the enemy of the lord, he is an excellent chess piece when he doesn't know it, why should the lord give up in vain. After all, you're still friends. ”
Ouyang Junyou had a lot of questions about everything that happened very quickly, in his opinion, although his lord's martial arts were not high before, he had great ambitions, and his resourcefulness was really convincing, so Ouyang Junyou was willing to join Honghualou. But now, Ximen Qing's martial arts have become higher, but in terms of scheming, he has weakened a lot, and the way he handles things has become imperfect. All kinds of doubts have always existed in Ouyang Junyou's heart.
I only heard Ximen Qing snort, "Liu Sheng, the king of Chu, is short-sighted and has no ambitions. When he occupies the land of the south, he wants to be peaceful, and he dares to point fingers at me, and he does not look at who gave him everything, and I have only destroyed him now, which is already a great gift to him.
What can the posthumous son of the king of Chu do even if he is a girl? I say it's a boy, it's a boy, and no one can change it. As for the words I left for the world, hmph, history is always written by the victors. As long as I reign over the world, I don't think anyone else dares to say the first half of the sentence?
As for Huang Xiaoqiang's chess piece, I used it very easily. However, success needs friends, and great success needs enemies, and Huang Xiaoqiang is my enemy. ”
Ouyang Junyou listened to Ximenqing's reasons, they were all far-fetched in the past, and behind these reasons, Ximenqing's stubbornness was full. He immediately persuaded, "My lord, from slow to urgent, step by step!" is the perfect strategy. You've been forbearance for years, do you still care about this moment?"
"Presumptuous!" Ximen Qing was furious, and slapped Ouyang Junyou with a volley.
Ouyang Junyou didn't panic, and immediately used his body protection true qi to block it. Unbeknownst to him, this palm was extremely powerful, and Ouyang Junyou's body protection true qi was instantly dispersed, and the whole person was knocked back several steps. Ouyang Junyou's throat was slightly sweet, and a stream of blood flowed out of his mouth.
"Hmph, this palm, I only used three successes. If I use ten powers, you know what the results will be. And that's why I don't hold back anymore. ”
Ouyang Junyou sighed in his heart, the Ximen Qing in front of him was no longer the original Ximen Qing. didn't dare to say anything else, Ouyang Junyou clenched his fists, "Thank you for your mercy." The lord is wise and brave, and his subordinates obey orders. ”
Ximen Qing turned around, no longer looked at Ouyang Junyou, and said coldly, "Stand down." ”
"Yes. ”
I don't know how long it took, but Ximen Qing's terrible laughter echoed in the secret room.
。。。
After Huang Xiaoqiang, Nangong Yunmeng, and Nangong Yue buried Uncle Chen, they dressed up all the way and finally came to Dengjia Village.
Huang Xiaoqiang stopped an old man who had returned from farm work, and asked, "Hello uncle, let me ask you, where does Zhu Blind live?"
"Zhu is blind, he died early. ”
