Chapter 34 The Raptors Cross Liangzhou, Jiangxi
Although Dunhuang City is built on the yellow sand, but because there are large and small generals in the city, it is not inferior to the major cities in the hinterland of the Central Plains, among which such as building gardens, leading water into the mansion and other large-scale strokes can be seen repeatedly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info and there is a little bit very different from the Central Plains, there are many generals here, and every household raises a private army, more than thousands, less than dozens.
Xiliang generals call these private armies home, never stingy with gold and silver on weekdays, and their combat power is even higher than that of the border army is barracks, Xiliang generals rely on these families, in order to put the local yamen and local Daomen in their eyes, and regard the entire Xiliang as their own backyard private house.
The inn where Xu Beiyou lives is in the west city of Dunhuang City, where most of the people from the rivers and lakes and the traders settle down, and the opposite east city is where most of the Jiangmen mansions are located, and the boundary between the two cities is clear, and the difference between heaven and earth seems to be two worlds.
However, the atmosphere in Dongcheng today is particularly gloomy, because there are two strong dragons crossing the river who are about to meet here.
After the incident at the Dragon Gate Inn, Duanmu Yu felt that the situation had been out of his control, and with the disturbance of the remnants of the Sword Sect, the Daomen Town Demon Hall would inevitably enter the game in a big way, on the other hand, the Dark Guard Mansion, their focus of arrest was never the remnants of the Sword Sect, but the remnants of the White Lotus Sect who once dominated the south of the Yangtze River and confronted Xiao Yu across the river, so the Dark Guard Mansion would not continue to invest in this matter. Stopping in time is the code of conduct of the Dark Guard.
Without follow-up strength, Duanmu Yu understood that it would be difficult for him to have the opportunity to show his strength in the northwest again, although Gongsun Zhongmou looked tempting, but it was not something he could imagine, so he chose to return to the imperial capital and no longer get involved in the game.
As for the next Northwest endgame, it is naturally all thrown to "Uncle Lu Shi" to deal with, who made Lu Shen the governor of the Northwest Secret Guard Mansion? Although I Duanmuyu has a father who is the Governor of the Dark Guard Mansion, I am still a white body, and I don't have any official position, how about the Northwest Secret Guard, it is my duty to help you, and it is my duty not to help you.
Duanmuyu left the northwest without hesitation, and Lu Shen had to rush to Xiliangzhou in person.
Another dragon crossing the river, there is no doubt that it is the Daomen Town Demon Temple.
There are three survivors of the Dragon Gate Inn, namely Duanmu Yu, the little girl in red, and Meng Po.
After Meng Po fled, she found that the inspector had not returned for a long time, and she knew that this colleague had died, and according to the rules, she reported the matter to the hall master, but she did not know that Gongsun Zhongmou had taken action later, so she naturally put the charge on the head of the Secret Guard Mansion.
This time, the Demon Suppression Temple sent an archdeacon and a deacon, the deacon was Ye Sin, who was born in the high-level Ye family, and the archdeacon was the top ten wheel kings.
The king of the wheel, the palace dwells outside the dark and fertile stone, and is facing the five turbidities of the world in the east. It is ranked last among the ten halls of Yama, but it ranks tenth in the ranking of the Demon Suppression Palace, second only to King Qin Guang and King Yama.
Even when the Northern Ghost Emperor was in his heyday, the ranking was still below the Wheel King.
For these two dragons crossing the river, the attitude of these local snakes in Xiliang Jiangmen is mainly on defense, but they are not hostile, but act as an intermediary, and they set the old site of the abandoned Xiliang Governor's Mansion as the place where the two sides negotiated peace.
Yes, peace talks.
The Demon Suppression Hall and the Dark Guard Mansion, which were once hidden in the dark shadows, also abandoned many of the past traditions after the rise of their respective masters, and began to appear under the sun.
There is nothing new under the sun.
After all, they once assisted Emperor Xiao to compete in the world, and the layer of paper on the surface still couldn't be completely torn.
The Wheel King and Ye Sin came to the Xiliang Governor's Mansion one step earlier, and the two walked on an overgrown path in the back garden of the mansion one after the other.
Judging from his face, the Wheel King is not very old, and it seems to be about the same as Ye Sin, but his face is extremely pale, as if with a touch of sickness. But in the world of cultivators, judging people by their appearance is the most stupid way, a three-year-old child may be a master of rejuvenation, a dying old person may also be a poor worm who has gone wrong in cultivation, and there are even more ageless people with an ageless appearance.
The true age of this Wheel King is unknown, but it will never be a young man who is not yet a young man.
The Wheel King stopped, looked at the dried up lake with his hands, and sighed: "Revisiting the old land, things are not people." ”
Ye Sin asked softly, "Has the Wheel King ever been here?"
The Wheel King turned his head and sighed, "Before Jiazi, I followed the Sect Leader to the Northwest, at that time, Emperor Xiao was not Emperor Xiao, and the Sect Leader was not a Sect Leader, and I was just a nobody among the two hundred Dao Sect disciples, some of them died and stayed here forever, and some of them did not die and were able to return to the Daomen." Sixty years later, Emperor Xiao passed away, and the real person of the Sect lived on Dutian Peak, and I became the so-called Wheel King. ”
"Some people think that our Daomen and the imperial court must be in an endless situation, but where is it so easy to tear face. People like the inspector and judge shouted and shouted and killed all day long, but for us old guys, a few decades ago, we were lying in the snow with another group of old guys, killing the grassland cavalry together, going south to the Central Plains together, and even living and dying together. Now these old guys have become the ministers and nobles of the imperial court, and the children and grandchildren are full of children, and we are also masters and ancestors in Daomen, and now let's go to fight and kill, and the target of the killing is still the old guy at the beginning, which is really boring. ”
Ye Sin was a little surprised, and he stopped talking.
The Wheel King smiled and said slowly: "That's why I want to talk to Lu Shen, it is best to be able to make peace and give an explanation to the Daomen." When we are old and dead, the old guys in the court are also dead, and no one will care about you when you turn the sky upside down. ”
Ye Sin said: "I am not the same person as the inspector. ”
The Wheel King glanced at him, didn't speak, and turned to leave.
The Wheel King returned to the main hall where the deliberations were prepared, which had been cleaned up by the servants.
Meng Po was waiting here, and when she saw the Wheel King, she hesitated for a moment before asking carefully: "Wheel King, do you want Ye Sin to take the place of the inspection judge?"
The Wheel King sat on the main seat, his expression was leisurely, and he chuckled: "Ye Sin is the grandson of the real person in charge of the sect, the family business is big, it is inevitable that there will be some chicken and dogs, he gave up the identity of the son of the Ye family, and ran to the Daomen to be a deacon of the Demon Suppression Palace, there must be some schemes, I don't want to delve into the hidden secrets, but the real person in charge of the sect has stopped paying attention to the affairs of the Ye family since before Jiazi, and he is afraid that this mind will be in vain." ”
Although Meng Po is already an old woman, in terms of actual age, she is more than twenty years younger than the Wheel King, when she first entered the Demon Suppression Palace, the Wheel King was already ranked as one of the seventy-two deacons, and over the years, she has become accustomed to being cautious in front of the Wheel King.
After hearing this somewhat vague answer, Meng Po didn't continue to ask, but instead asked, "The remnants of the Sword Sect that you mentioned over there in the Dark Guard Mansion?"
The Wheel King narrowed his eyes and sighed: "The remnants of the Sword Sect, I was fortunate to see Gongsun Zhongmou, the first disciple of the Sword Sect, in the grassland, at that time, he swung his sword and splashed the sword rain like splashing ink, his big sleeves fluttered, one step at a time, one sword and one kill, it was really a wanton romance, I don't know if there was still a great romance after Jiazi?"
Meng Po smiled: "After so many years, Gongsun Zhongmou is probably already a bad old man. ”
The wheel king, who still retains the appearance of a young man, sighed: "Kendo is not healthy, decay and old age, and the handsome son of the year will also become drooping and old, which is really embarrassing." ”
After all, the wind will be blown away by the rain and wind, and only the imperial capital and Du Tianfeng will stand.
