Chapter 8 Puppetry: Fighting Confucianism and Righteousness
A few years ago, Afghanistan.
"Brother Fei, don't go to this operation, I always feel that there is something wrong with this plan. A teenager frowned, looking at the map in his hand and chattering. "Bah, I won't go to anyone to protect you, you are my son!" A man carefully sorted out his equipment, this is a very manly man, with a resolute face, a dense and short beard, and he must be the No. 1 who plays a real man in the film company. "But I have a hunch that something will happen this time, and my hunch is very accurate. The young man persuaded without giving up. "You also said that something was going to happen this time, how could I, the father, not be there, even if I died, I had to protect you. The man looked at the boy affectionately.
A few hours later, "Fei Ge, Fei Ge, look at me, don't you die, the dead old ghost is coming here, Fei Ge is injured." ”
When Uncle Mo Rong saw his injury, his face turned pale and he shook his head. The teenager shouted: "No ......"
Fei Ge said while vomiting blood, "Silly boy, we all know that this day is sooner or later, I will be relieved that you are okay, rest assured that I will always be behind you." Dead old ghost, it's a pity, I can't send you to the end, have a chance to find me a wife at the bottom, you want to be beautiful. ”
"No, no, Brother Fei, I won't let you die, although I can't save you now, I will find a way to keep you. "The young man's heart is crossed. "No," Uncle Murong said with a glare, "Even if he becomes a ghost soldier, he is just a ghost with no memory, no." ”
"I didn't say that I wanted him to become a ghost soldier, take the 10,000-year-old gloomy wood, I want him to be my first ghost general. The young man looked at Uncle Murong firmly.
"Then he will never be reborn!" "Do you think he will still be him after he is reincarnated?" I will keep him and try to resurrect him. "It's impossible for the ghost to be resurrected is just a legend, you can't do it, it's a pity that there is no dragon eye amber, otherwise you will collect his soul first and then find a way." "There's no time, bring the gloomy wood. ”

"Stop, Cheng Linsheng, I see you dare!" A shout sounded, Liu Yuanchao's face finally showed a smile, and an old man in a robe in his sixties actually jumped off the wall and stood between the two sides, "Xiaguan Wuhua County Lingfeng Confucian Cheng Linsheng knocked to see the prefect. Cheng Linsheng saluted respectfully with both hands, although the salute arrived, he obviously had no intention.
The newly arrived old man ignored him, and turned his head to face Liu Yuanchao: "Brother and brother are late, and you are frightened." "Hehe, brother, you're polite, what else do our brothers have to worry about. Liu Yuanchao waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Bold Cheng Linsheng," the old man's smile turned into an angry face, and his eyes glared, "Who doesn't know that Secretary Liu is my good brother of Lao Luo, you dare to intercept him, and you want to kill him, who gave you the guts." ”
Cheng Linsheng smiled with a nonchalant smile: "Lord Qiyu, the lower official acted on orders, how could the lower official himself have the courage." ”
"Nonsense," the old man surnamed Luo said angrily: "When did I give you an order, you transferred more than five officials without authorization, I will report to the above, and you will wait for the punishment." ”
Cheng Linsheng still said unhurriedly: "The lower official is under the order of the political envoy, and the lord explains that you have a close relationship with Secretary Liu, so I don't need to inform you in order to help you avoid suspicion." A discerning person can see at a glance that Cheng Linsheng did not take Old Man Luo in his eyes at all.
The old man surnamed Luo knew that things were not very right, so he thought about it, and then said to Cheng Linsheng: "Cheng County Order, I'll go and tell the political envoy Xu Bu about this matter, you can go first if you have nothing to do here." ”
"But ......," Cheng Linsheng said. Before he could finish speaking, the old man surnamed Luo stared at him, and a majestic aura burst out on his body, "Why do you still want to disobey?" said and took out a jade pendant carved with cloud geese from his robe, "This official ordered you to withdraw the people and horses in the name of Kun City from the Sipin Prefect, wait for disposal, I will deal with it from the political envoy, get out." ”
Cheng Linsheng stood in a violent aura, smiled and remained completely unmoved, and then looked at the old man surnamed Luo with an extremely contemptuous look, "I think Lord Luo has something to figure out, today's matter is not something you can bear, do you think you can save Secretary Liu's life by explaining it to the political envoy?" After investigating that Liu Yuanchao, the secretary of Kun City, colluded with Taoists to bully Confucianism and brutalize Zhongliang, he is now instructed to execute Xu Yixin, the political envoy of Yun Province, and execute all his sons and family members. "Signed" Criminal Department "and a bright red seal next to it.
Seeing that the old man surnamed Luo was also frightened by the criminal department's handwritten edict, and it was directly ordered by the criminal department, this matter was serious, "Impossible!" The old man surnamed Luo was still not convinced, "For so many years, there have often been disputes between the three sects of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, but it has always been person-to-person, sect-to-sect, and there has never been too much interference from above, how could there be an order from the Criminal Department to deal with an incumbent secretary of the municipal party committee, and besides, Brother Liu has no cultivation at all and is just an ordinary person, according to the rules, he should not be attacked, do you want to cause a big war?"
Cheng Linsheng cautiously put away the handwritten edict of the Criminal Department, and then replied to the old man surnamed Luo in a semi-sarcastic tone: "Lord Luo, he is an ordinary person? His son is the best of the three generations of disciples of the Heavenly Puppet Sect, and he himself is the henchman of Dong Lao's left and right hand in the capital arranged in Kun City, representing the interests of Taoism, do you think he is still an ordinary person?"
"It's normal for conflicts of interest to conflict, but he is the secretary of the municipal party committee, aren't you afraid that this matter will cause a shock in the world?"
"From the moment they killed the people of Huanximen, it was doomed to his quick death, Chen Lao is now fusing Taoism, so he naturally has to explain to Huanximen, what if he doesn't die?" Cheng Linsheng looked as if he was heartbroken.
The old man surnamed Luo didn't know what to do for a while, on the one hand, he was a friend for decades, and on the other hand, he was loyal to the forces, how to choose, the old man was sweating profusely, and the green tendons in his temples burst out.
At this time, it was Secretary Liu who spoke first and scolded angrily: "Luo Tianming, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person, you must have known that they were going to assassinate me, and you still pretended to come over to save me, today I can see it clearly, you and I are affectionate and end here today, in the future, you take your Yangguan Avenue, you will leave this single-plank bridge to me, hum!" After saying that, he looked angry, turned his back to the old man surnamed Luo, and no longer looked at him.
The old man surnamed Luo suddenly felt that his eyes were dark, what was the situation, today his subordinates were chatting He heard that someone was mobilizing a large number of people in Kun City to take action, and it was related to the city's officials, so he felt that something was wrong, and when he came to see it, he was dealing with his good friend for decades, and then he learned that it was not a private brawl but an order from the peak, and in the end, even his old friend turned against him, and a series of blows made him unbearable.
Cheng Linsheng saw that the two of them turned into enemies and didn't have any joy or anger, but said lightly: "Okay, don't pretend, I'm really a fool, if you want to clear up the relationship between the two of you and keep Lord Luo, you don't need this trick, because I won't offend Lord Luo today, but Lord Luo, if you do something that is not in line with your identity today, I'm afraid someone will want to greet your three clans in the future." ”
Originally, Old Man Luo was just excited for a moment and didn't figure it out, but now Cheng Linsheng reacted as soon as he said it, how could he not understand that he had never betrayed him with his old friend's temper, and his heart became hot, and he was about to take action, but Cheng Linsheng's words shocked him, the horror of the power for so many years He couldn't be clearer, saying that he would never let go of one of your three clans, what should he do, he was really conflicted in his heart.
Secretary Liu saw that the matter was clear, and he had nothing to hide, so he had to say helplessly: "Okay, Lao Luo, today's matter has nothing to do with you, you go first, think about your children and grandchildren, don't be impulsive, and besides, we can't solve the current situation, how do you know that we will lose!" After speaking, Secretary Liu also squeezed out a smile to confirm his words.
The old man surnamed Luo pounced and knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times without hesitation, "Brother Liu, my old life can survive to this day because of you, if you really can't go today, remember that there is a brother on Huangquan Road and I will accompany you." After speaking, he didn't get up, took out a short dagger from his waist and put it in front of his eyes, closed his eyes and stopped talking, and his heart of death was obvious.
Cheng Linsheng glanced at him very contemptuously and ignored it, walked up to Secretary Liu, and asked very elegantly: "Secretary Liu should solve our matter now, do you want to break yourself, or do you have to do it?" Liu Hanyang didn't wait for him to finish speaking, he had already stabbed straight through with a sword, Cheng Linsheng just raised his hand Liu Hanyang seemed to have stabbed an invisible barrier, and he couldn't break through half a meter in front of him, Cheng Linsheng smiled slightly and said to Liu Hanyang with a graceful demeanor:" Child, although you are the leader of the Heavenly Puppet Gate, after all, you are too young to do your skills, if this puppet technique is a petty theft, assassination and sneak attack are almost the same, and you will kill the enemy in this head-to-head battleground...... Ah!" Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly screamed, only to see a blood spring suddenly burst out of his neck, he reached out and grabbed a grasshopper-sized villain puppet with a knife and stabbed in his hand, Liu Hanyang, who rarely spoke, also spoke: "In this world, everything is not really inferior, only reading is high, age does not mean anything, you don't need to pretend to be high." ”
Cheng Linsheng didn't care about answering Liu Hanyang at all, and threw off the little puppet to concentrate on reciting the sage text silently: "Mencius said: "I am good at nurturing my heroic spirit. He has seven, I have one, and I have seven, so why should I be in trouble! "As he recited, a stream of aura rushed into his body, and the gushing blood slowly stopped until it stopped, and the wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye, but Cheng Linsheng's face didn't know whether it was blood loss or anger, and he was actually injured by a yellow-haired ghost, and the damage to his face was greater than his body, Cheng Linsheng's face no longer had the previous elegance, and his face was even more terrifying than when Huang Qiusheng made a horror movie," The kid originally wanted you two to go with dignity, but you gave up this opportunity yourself, and I will let you know what the horror of a scholar is. ”
