“...... From vassal kings, cabinet scholars, and generals, to officials at all levels of the state and government, there are generally martial arts masters employed in their palaces; Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"These masters are the disciples of those gangs, right?"

"Exactly. It is precisely because of this level of relationship that they have a very close relationship with those sects, and on the other hand, because of the establishment of such a close relationship, the various sects continue to send their outstanding disciples to their mansions to do things. ”

Dongfang Zhen shook his head and sighed lightly: "It's really a long experience! In the past, the younger generation didn't know anything about this!"

Shangguan Xiong smiled and said, "You have no interest in this kind of thing, so you haven't paid attention to it?"

Dongfang Zhen nodded and said: "The family teacher often teaches us: don't deal with those dignitaries. ”

Shangguan Xiong said with a smile: "In recent decades, your Kunlun faction has indeed rarely dealt with these people!" Speaking of this, the conversation changed, "Although you disdain, it doesn't mean that other factions are disdainful." Don't talk about it from afar, just say that I'm Chu Xiang League, and I have a very good relationship with Yongshun Xuanwei Division......"

"I've heard that. Dongfang Zhen said: "If it weren't for this relationship, the development of your Chu Xiang League would not be so fast, right?"

Shangguan Xiong let out a "grace" and said in a deep voice: "Actually, there are many of you who are famous and decent like me, Chu Xiangmeng. For example, the Luoyang Nangong family in the Central Plains of Fujia had an extraordinary relationship with King Chong of Runing Mansion! For example, the Huanhua Xiao family also had a very close relationship with King Shu of Chengdu Mansion...... There are also such as Longhu Mountain, Emei, Putuo, Wuyi, Jiangnan Murong Family, Cangzhou Spear King Family, Taiyuan Soul Breaking Xiao Situ Family, and so on, which one is not like this? The difference is only that their respective backers are different and their sizes are different!"

"Oh, I see!" Dongfang shook suddenly.

"So, can the court not have any scruples?"

Dongfang Zhen understood what Shangguan Xiong meant, and suddenly felt that those famous and decent families were not as glamorous as they usually remembered.

Dongfang Zhen was silent for a while, and suddenly remembered the doubts he wanted to raise before: "Shangguan Alliance Master, there is still something unclear in the younger generation: why doesn't the imperial court suspect that the incident of privately determining firearms was the ghost of Perak Hall itself?"

Shangguan Xiong looked at him with a smile and said with appreciation: "That's a good question!" He said in his heart: "I'm really right! This kid is not only extraordinary in martial arts, but also very smart, and he is really a person who can be entrusted with big things!"

"Do you know what this Thunderbolt Hall has to do with the royal family?"

Dongfang Zhen shook his head and looked at him curiously.

"Thunderbolt Hall's 'Lei's Shuangshu', you must have heard of it?"

"Yes. I heard that they are all Lei Zhentian's daughters, not only beautiful and moving, but also extraordinary. ”

"Exactly. And among them, Miss Lei is the concubine of today's saint. ”

"Oh?" Dongfang Zhen's eyes flashed, "This means that Lei Zhentian is the father-in-law of the current saint, so the imperial court is very trusting!"

"That's just one of the reasons. There is another reason: Perak Hall has always been under the surveillance of the imperial court. And Lei Zhentian, of course, also knows this. Think about it, how dare he lie about the military situation?"

“...... Hey, I can't rule out the possibility: that guy is their own person, deliberately acting there!"

"Hmph, the imperial court can't find anyone, isn't this the first thing to suspect?" Shangguan Xiong sneered, "How could Lei Zhentian be so stupid?

Dongfang shook his head, thought for a while, and said, "...... Come to think of it, that guy should know the details of the Thunderbolt Hall, but why did he dare to order those firearms?"

"Hmm...... It's not very clear. Shangguan Xiong thought and said, "...... I heard that he just had to order a few raw materials and produce some things on his own, but the people of Perak Hall, who were experts in this area, could naturally see at a glance what he was going to do......

Dongfang Zhen was relieved, and nodded lightly while thinking. For a moment, both fell silent.

After a long while, Dongfang Zhen suddenly stood up.

"What are you going to do here?" Shangguan Xiong asked, staring into his eyes.

Dongfang Zhen arched his hand and said, "Shangguan Alliance Master, thank you for your kindness, and thank you for telling me this." The juniors are leaving. ”

Shangguan Xiong's face turned cold, he stood up suddenly, pointed at him and shouted angrily: "You are clear about the current situation! Why are you still so stubborn?!"

Dongfang Zhen was speechless, and craned his neck and squinted at the treetops.

"Say it, give me a reason!" Shangguan Xiong's spit splashed directly in his face.

"The situation in the rivers and lakes...... Dongfang Zhen stammered a little, but his expression was very resolute, "No one can change it,...... I just want to go and get the master out. ”

"Okay, good ......" Shangguan Xiong didn't expect his bitter persuasion and secret guidance, what should be said and what should not be said have been explained, but he is still uncivilized, and his face is sallow, "You go! Let's go! Go to death......

Dongfang Zhen arched his hand, and turned around angrily to untie the horse's reins.

"Dongfang Zhen!" Shangguan Xiong was furious and shouted: "You just died like this, it's better than killing a dog!"

"What did you say?!" Dongfang turned around violently, his face extremely ugly.

"Listen: I said you're not as good as a dead dog!" Shangguan Xiong irritated him even louder.

Dongfang Zhen's face was pale, his fists were clenched with a "gege" sound, and the murderous aura flashed in his eyes.

"Come on, do it, come and kill me!" Shangguan Xiong's mouth turned into a contemptuous sneer, staring into his eyes with a defiant gaze.

Dongfang Zhen slowly loosened his fist, swallowed a mouthful of saliva fiercely, and turned his head sideways.

"Heh, it seems that you are not unbearable!" Shangguan Xiong didn't seem to want to provoke him anymore, so he put away his meanness and provocation, "Hmph, young man, tell you, when the leader of this alliance was young, he was more stubborn than you...... As a person who has come over, I would like to advise you: If you are brave in vain, you will not even have a chance to regret it in the end!"

Dongfang Zhen slowly calmed down, and said in a deep voice: "Shangguan Alliance Leader, as a person from the rivers and lakes, not everything has to be rational; there are many things that cannot be considered from the pros and cons to be feasible, but have to be done. Do you say so?"

Shangguan Xiong said with a straight face: "Twenty years ago, I completely agreed,......; Twenty years ago, I was so proud that I never listened to anyone's advice, and I knew that it was not feasible, but I wanted to do it, but what was the result? Fortunately, I just died nine times and survived in the end...... Alas, in retrospect, if he had died, wouldn't he have died as much as a dog......"

"Your situation now is very similar to what I was back then. So, you have to endure and wait for the opportunity to ......"

Dongfang Zhen gritted his teeth lightly and lowered his head to look at a group of ants on the ground that were carrying dead insects.

“...... You go to save your master now, and before you reach Shaolin, you have become a prisoner of others...... You can imagine that once you leave here, there will be no place for you in the world......

"Hmph, is it that serious? Big deal, find an isolated place to live in seclusion!"

"However, even if you can really not expose yourself, how can you save your master from here? You killed the people of Shaolin and Jinyiwei, and you don't want to close the case for the rest of your life...... You can only live in such humiliation for the rest of your life, can you be willing?"

"Is there any hope for me in this life?!" Dongfang Zhen's eyes widened, glared at Shangguan Xiong fiercely, and hissed: "It's not you! Shangguan Xiong! You ruined me!"

"Whoever said you would be ruined!" Shangguan Xiong said angrily: "Aren't I trying to find a way to help you?

Dongfang Zhen bit his lower lip fiercely and looked at him coldly and was silent.

“...... After so many years, I have understood this truth: people have to live well for themselves and their relatives...... Who can predict what the future will bring? Just live in the present! Only by living can there be hope for everything! If a person dies and everything is in vain, what ideals and aspirations can we talk about?"

"I understand all these truths!" Dongfang Zhen tried to suppress the resentment in his heart, and said coldly: "But,...... Shangguan Alliance Master, I won't be like you Chu Xiang Alliance!"

Shangguan Xiong showed a slight look of disappointment, pondered for a while, and said, "I can understand your thoughts, and I won't force you...... In this case, you should go back with me first, discuss a foolproof plan, and then consider the next move, how about it? Don't go to death in vain!"

Dongfang Zhen was a little moved, but he was worried that this was his strategy to delay the army, so he refused: "Thank you Shangguan Alliance Master for your kindness......! I'll be careful myself!"

When Shangguan Xiong heard this, he was unexpectedly not angry, but took two steps forward, took his hand and said warmly: "Dongfang Shaoxia, the reason why I have repeatedly persuaded you to go back is really nothing else, just to save your life." ”

Dongfang Zhen saw that he was very sincere, and he was a little moved in his heart, and he couldn't refuse for a while.

Seeing that he hesitated, Shangguan Xiong hit the snake with the stick, "I won't let you go to your Daomen as an enemy, and do those things that attack the city and pull out the village, - you must not do it, - I only ask you to live in my mansion and protect Mrs. and Qing'er, how about it?"

At the mention of Qing'er, Dongfang Zhen's mood immediately became upset. Immediately afterwards, he thought of Sang Qinghong again, and suddenly felt very sorry for her, and just wanted to leave here early, so that he could really make a break with Qing'er, so he shook his head and said, "No......"

"No?" Shangguan Xiong suddenly became excited, "Boy, you have to talk about your conscience...... Although you don't owe me anything, don't you owe my family Qing'er? Qing'er likes you so much, are you worthy of others? You just left decisively, what kind of manly husband ?!...... you?"

Dongfang Zhen froze on the ground, stunned and speechless.

Shangguan Xiong said excitedly: "What you are anxious to do, don't you just want to wash away the charge of killing Kongjing and then rescue your master? However, you can't argue, no one will believe you! I can help you, only I, Shangguanxiong! Kongjing was killed by me! But only if I admit it, can you be innocent! However, the time has not yet come, and I will not admit it!"

"What do you mean?" Dongfang Zhen heard his voice, and his heart jumped suddenly, "Shangguan Alliance Master, you mean ......?"

"That is to say: when the time comes, I will announce this matter to the world and return your innocence!"

"Is this true?!" Dongfang Zhen not only trembled, but also trembled all over.

"Hmph, I, Shangguan Xiong, am the leader of the Chuxiang Alliance, can I still lie to a junior like you?"

"But,...... How long are you going to wait?"

"Is this...... It's not sure that it will take a year and a half at least, or three or five years at most...... But don't worry, I'll do it as soon as possible. ”

"But...... If you admit it, how can Shaolin be willing to give up?"

"Hahaha! You have been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, and you don't even understand this truth? The rivers and lakes rely on your fists! Whoever has a hard fist will have a reason! The strong will run rampant in the world; and the weak can only swallow their anger! As long as the strength of my Chu Xiangmeng is stronger than his Shaolin, what can he Shaolin do to me? Similarly, as long as your Kunlun's strength is stronger than his Shaolin, what can he Shaolin do to you? Do you dare to let your master go immediately without obediently?......

Although Dongfang Zhen felt that his thinking was too strong and domineering, it was not unreasonable when he thought about it, and he shook his head and sighed.

“...... That's it!" Shangguan Xiong, who was thinking about it, was suddenly overjoyed, "Dongfang Zhen, I have already thought of a way to rescue your master!"

"What?" Dongfang Zhen could barely believe his ears.

Shangguan Xiong smiled and said, "Come back with me!" I dare to guarantee: Shaolin will release your master within two months at most!"

Dongfang Zhen still didn't come back to his senses, and looked at him blankly.

"Don't be stunned! let's go!" Shangguan Xiong handed the reins of the horse to him, and said with a mysterious smile: "Whether you can successfully rescue your master, it all depends on you!"
