Chapter 147: The Verge

Outside the pine forest, the scouts still kept coming back to report the situation ahead, and the man in black closed his eyes and said nothing, silently calculating in his heart which few passers-by had not returned.

Nearly an hour later, the next round of returning Tanma has come to report one after another, but there are still people all the way, and there has been no movement for a long time.

The man in black held the sword in his hand, his tiger eyes widened slightly, and the blade of the sword pointed straight ahead, ordering everyone to march straight in this direction.

Zhou Yi and the others returned to Gongsun Mansion and saw that Mr. Gongsun had already counted all his family members on the hour and was waiting in the front hall. Although this Gongsun Mansion is magnificent and the family is scarce, all the servants who are on an errand in his house, whether male or female, are all good at kung fu, maybe Gongsun Ji has long expected that there will be a day when the butcher's knife hangs around his neck, so there are no idle people in this mansion.

At that time, the torch was raised in the courtyard, the sword was unsheathed, and the cold light was suddenly cold. Zhou Yi met with Mr. Gongsun, explained his intention in two sentences, and Gongsun Ji invited him to the main hall to discuss matters.

After sitting down, Zhou Yi looked left and right and saw Shi Weng and his person, so he was uneasy. Moreover, looking at the costumes of the people on the left and right, there are different shapes, Zhou Yi has some scruples, and there is a sentence that comes to his mouth, but he can't say it directly.

Gongsun Ji said to him: "Although these are slaves in the house, they are also my long-suffering henchmen, what do you have to say, but it doesn't hurt to speak." ”

Zhou Yi smiled, got up and nodded to everyone, which was considered a salute. Everyone also sat down to return the salute, looking carefully, this legendary young man who had been pulled back from the Ghost Gate by Mr. Gongsun in the past, all of them looked bright.

"The plan for the evacuation, presumably Mr. has already arranged it, but there are still old and young in this mansion, if you only blindly retreat, the action will inevitably be slow......" Speaking of the old and young in the mansion, he looked up at Gongsun Ji and carefully observed his expression. As everyone knows, Gongsun Ji has a son and a daughter, and now they are in their twenties, except for them, there is no younger person in this house.

Gongsun Ji stared at Zhou Yi, his eyes slowly swept over the people left and right, and he couldn't help but sigh, but he didn't answer his words.

Zhou Yi saw that he understood what he meant, so he continued: "Sir should know that the people outside the forest are also tigers and wolves! They are fierce and fierce, which shows how strong the desire to destroy us is, if the enemy and us form a trend of chasing and fleeing, the situation will be critical!"

Gongsun Ji couldn't help but smile on his back, and it took a long time to spit out a word: "Escape?"

He stepped forward and stood in front of a sand table in the center of the main hall. The sand table was made of a scale that was reduced according to strict specifications, and the position of Gongsun Mansion and the layout of the defensive formation were clearly marked on it, and it seemed that Gongsun Ji was going to fight to the death with the attackers.

Zhou Yi looked panicked and hurriedly asked, "Is Mr. planning to fight with them?"

Gongsun Ji looked directly at a few marked places in the sand table with cold eyes, and said in an impassioned tone: "I am close to the age of confusion, and it is a regret in this life to not be able to stabilize the country, if I even have to endure the humiliation of such a young person to protect the will of the clan, how can my Gongsun Ji stand in the world!"

As soon as his voice fell, the people on the left and right raised their arms and shouted: "I swear to live and die with my husband!

Zhou Yi saw that everyone had the heart to die, and it was really difficult to persuade them to retreat under the boiling blood, so he said to Mr. Gongsun: "It is easy to die generously, but the difficult thing is to calm down and think about whether there is a better countermeasure.

Gongsun Ji turned around and pressed his arm, shook it slightly, and said, "What do you mean, how can I not know?"

Zhou Yi frowned and asked puzzledly, "Could it be that this is not what Mr. meant?"

Gongsun Ji looked back at everyone, worried, and whispered to Zhou Yi: "You come with me." ”

The two of them were just about to go out of the side room, when they heard a deep and loud voice coming over: "You are finally back!"

Everyone was silenced by the voice, and a few of the older ones were particularly shocked, and the voice was all too familiar to them. In the blink of an eye, a blue-gray figure floated by, and Shi Weng suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

"Old man......"

When everyone suddenly saw Shi Weng come forward, they all cried in surprise, and knelt down in front of him and bowed.

Zhou Yi was even more frightened, and hurriedly knelt down, and said with tears in his eyes, "Old man, it's Zhou Yi who can't stand you!"

Shi Weng bent down slightly to help him up, and said with a peaceful face: "You don't have to blame yourself, this is my grudge with him, even if there is no appearance of you, this account must be settled before I and him die!"

"But you deserve to live out your old age!"

"The tree wants to be quiet and the wind does not stop, this is my fate! I asked you to investigate, you have some eyebrows, right?" Shi Weng shook his head and smiled, "After you left, I suddenly figured out some truths, in the face of those old things, I don't want to believe that it was really his doing, how can he be ruthless to me?"

The people did not understand what he was saying, and they did not know who he was referring to.

Zhou Yi said: "Zhou Yi is incompetent, and he has the trust of Mr. Zhou! In this capital and the rivers and lakes, people's hearts are really unpredictable, many times I thought the truth was in front of me, but when I uncovered a truth, I found that I fell from one mystery to another......

Shi Weng smiled abruptly, paused, and said: "A game within a game! Even I, the old man of the year, have been deceived for nearly forty years, not to mention you as a latecomer? The love between you and Sima Chun made me see through my own false illusion, people are different from others, and I and him will never be you and Sima Chun!"

Zhou Yi was ignorant, first, he didn't know who the person under Shi Weng's words was, and second, he didn't know the deep meaning of comparing himself with Sima Chun, so he frowned and asked: "The younger generation dares to ask who the old gentleman is talking about?"

Shi Weng's eyes were like torches, deep and trance, "A man who wants to put me to death!" his face sank, "He knows very well that he and I cannot stand in the world, as long as I still have a breath, everything he plans may be known to the world at any time." How difficult it is to set up a game for more than 30 years, how can he sit still and wait for death? This is also the reason why he has been overwhelmed by a large number of soldiers. Where this sword goes, it's up to tonight!"

The more Zhou Yi listened, the more confused he became, and asked, "As far as I know, that man in black is the person of the Great General Hou Jing, do you mean that this sword comes from the General's Mansion?"

Shi Weng shook his head and smiled: "You haven't seen the current situation clearly. On the surface, the man in black is just a killer used by Hou Jing to deal with Taifu and other political enemies, but if you think about it carefully, how do you know that it is not a cover for him to hide from the world?"

Zhou Yi said: "The younger generation is dull, please mention it to the old gentleman!"

In a word, what you have found in the past few months is what others want you to see, as long as you are clear about the other party's purpose, it is necessary for you to reflect on what you have done during this time, and whether you are suspected of being used. ”

Zhou Yi looked stunned and was silent.

Shi Weng looked indifferent, and said faintly: "Whether this sword is from the court or the rivers and lakes, he is coming for me, since the sword has been unsheathed, why not make an end! He personally planned to subvert the whole world, but as long as I still breathe, he will not succeed!"

"Who is the arranger?"

Shi Weng shook his head and sighed: "You don't have to ask, this is my calamity, and no one else should interfere." Zhou Yi, care is chaos, you have more things to do, this Jianghu needs a chess player who distinguishes between right and wrong, and the common people in this world need a peaceful and clear world! Haiyan Heqing, whether you can or not, it's up to you!"
