After being surprised, a sword of cold blood immediately sensed that there was a problem, and looked up deeply at Tie Liu, who did not say anything in front of him.

There is a saying that 'nothing will go to the Three Treasures Palace',

'There is no such thing as a free lunch'

The other party sent such a big gift, if you want to say that the old guy in Shangguan Xiong has nothing else to ask for, he won't believe it even if he is killed.

Being old and not dying is a thief, not to mention the Shangguan family, who has always occupied the throne of the first family of the Dayu Dynasty.

If someone thinks that the Shangguan family is a martial artist, and sits firmly on the throne of the first family of Dayu by virtue of their military exploits, their knowledge is absolutely superficial.

If there were no treacherous tricks, no matter how strong the Shangguan family was and how high the military achievements were, it would be impossible for a simple reckless man to be prosperous so far.

In his bloody view, no one in the officialdom can see it more clearly than the Shangguan family.

"Brother Shangguan, do you have anything else to say, what do you want to bring to me?"

Obviously, because of the effect of the Restoration Pill, a knife of cold blood at the moment is quite conscious of eating people with short mouths and soft hands.

Seeing that the name of the sword cold blood to his own general had changed, Tie Liu couldn't help but glance at the medicine bottle in the hand of the sword cold blood.

Obviously, he understood that he still underestimated the value of the pill he had just delivered.

Seeing him like this, a knife cold blood directly put it away quietly, obviously planning not to return it no matter what.

Originally, he was still worried about how to earn two such pills from Shangguan Qiuyu's little fox.

Now, his cheap grandfather sent someone to deliver it himself, and he naturally has no reason to return it.

Therefore, it is disrespectful.

Seeing that the cold blood of a knife was like this, Tie Liu was dumbfounded again, he didn't expect that the pill would be so valued by the chief arrester of the arrest department of a cold blood.

Now I'm afraid that no matter what I say, the other party may not be able to return the pill to him.

Therefore, I was not greedy, and directly and honestly explained:

"My lord, my general said that there are changes in southern Xinjiang, and the army of the Western Expedition needs to immediately turn back to southern Xinjiang to determine the situation. ”

"Press?" Hearing Tie Liu's words, he didn't feel the slightest surprise at the cold blood.

As early as Shangguan Xiong led the envoy of the Western Expedition, he somewhat understood the other party's intentions.

In particular, he learned through the news that the arrest department kept coming that the Yucheng Ding family used the name of the Western Expedition Army to purchase grain and transport it to southern Xinjiang.

Although this move didn't mean anything, he still guessed Shangguan Xiong's specific plan.

In addition, the news from Yucheng had begun to make him a little uneasy, even if the emperor called him back now, he didn't want to go back.

He thought the same as Shangguan Xiong, and now he just wanted to avoid the powder keg in Yucheng far away, so as not to burn himself at that time.

However, this is like gambling, and everyone is happy when they win.

But if you lose the bet, I am afraid that you will go bankrupt because of this, and even your life will not be guaranteed.

Fortunately, a knife of cold blood is a character in the end, and he has been the boss of the arrest department for so many years, and many times he does things cleanly and neatly, and never drags mud and water.

Similarly, in the face of Shangguan Xiong's almost explicit hints, he also knew that it was time to take a stand.

With a wave of his hand, he said in a deep voice:

"I see, you go down. After speaking, he no longer took care of Tie Liu, closed his eyes and said nothing, and crossed his knees to recuperate.

Tie Liu opened his mouth when he saw this, not understanding what a knife of cold blood meant.

However, seeing that the cold blood of the knife was no longer willing to take care of himself, Tie Liu did not dare to continue to speak, and bowed with his fists, and then turned to leave.

After Tetsuroku left, he reopened his eyes with a cold blood and muttered to himself:

"I hope that kid doesn't disappoint me, otherwise Lao Tzu will lose a lot of money. ”

After speaking, he closed his eyes again and continued to recover the true qi that had been lost by the Zhenguo Gong Shangguanxiong before.

Tie Liu, who was also confused by his own general, was very depressed and got out of the Chinese army's big tent.

Although Tetsuroku was one of the Thirteen Eagles, he had more military understanding and conjectures in his head.

The dumb riddle between the big guys on both sides made him a little confused.

But it doesn't matter, as long as my family can go back to southern Xinjiang.

To tell the truth, he was really unhappy with the winding mountain road of Xichuan.

......

"This son, you must be from out of town, right?"

"Oh, how so?"

"Hehe, needless to say, every time at this time every year, there will be a lot of tourists from other places who come to the Five Holy Cities to visit the annual Five Holy Temple Sacrifice Ceremony. ”

"Five Holy Temples?" Hearing the so-called Five Holy Temples in the mouths of the people here again, Shangguan Qiuyu couldn't help but be a little curious.

"Childe doesn't know?" Seeing Shangguan Qiuyu's curious look, the shopkeeper was obviously a little surprised.

See the shopkeeper and the first pair, are you a monkey sent to tease?

Shangguan Qiuyu smiled slightly, took a sip of the tea that the shopkeeper poured for himself, and said without being salty or light:

"Little second brother, you might as well tell me, this is the first time I've come to these Five Holy Cities, and I really haven't heard of it before. ”

Hearing that the other party was coming to the Five Holy Cities for the first time, the shopkeeper was immediately relieved.

Seeing that Shangguan Qiuyu was interested in this, the shopkeeper saw that there were no new customers in the store, so he opened his mouth and said to Shangguan Qiuyu:

"Okay, since Childe is interested in listening, the younger one will tell Childe about it..."

Five Holy Temples

Legend has it that in ancient times, there were five peerless strong men in the south, and they saw that the south suffered floods every year, and the people were miserable.

So, they met in the spiritual realm, joined forces to subdue the ancient holy beast swallowing ants, and with supreme divine power, they split mountains and opened canals, and traversed the ditches connecting the east and west of the south.

The opening of the Wusheng Canal has caused no floods in the south since then.

For this reason, the people of Nandi were grateful and specially built this Five Holy Temple to show their merits.

For thousands of years, the descendants of the Five Saints have respected their ancestors, guarded the Five Sacred Canals, and continuously developed the Five Sacred Canals to alleviate the floods caused by the rainfall in the south.

Every year in mid to late December, the people of the south will worship the five holy icons on a large scale.

Therefore, the Five Holy Temples in various places in the south are full of people at this time, and they are full of people.

Among them, the most powerful is naturally the Five Holy City, and the worship ceremony led by the descendants of the Five Saints is the largest.

Listening to the shopkeeper finish saying it all in one breath, Shangguan Qiuyu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

The Five Holy Cities, with a permanent population of more than 10 million, are among the largest cities in the south.

However, it is such a big city, but it has been autonomous in the hands of the descendants of the five saints in the city for thousands of years.

At the beginning of the establishment of the Yu Dynasty, Xuanyuan Taizu deeply felt the virtue of the Five Saints and the merits of the descendants of the Five Saints, so he deliberately handed over the Five Saints City to the descendants of the Five Saints for joint management.

Here, there is no so-called imperial court, and everything in the city is decided by the five families.

The Five Sages and the descendants of the Five Sages are trusted by the people of the Southland, and the Five Sages are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of the Southland, so the people of the South are also very subject to the family management of the descendants of the Five Sages.

It is precisely because of this that this special case will exist in the Dayu court.

Now it seems that he is afraid that he will have to go to the family where the so-called descendants of the Five Saints are located.
