Chapter 63, the bloody knife is traced again

Shangguan Yun got up and followed the old man to the second floor, and was immediately led by the old man into a quiet room. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

When the two of them sat down, the old man clasped his fist at Shangguan Yun and saluted, "Can the prince lend the token shown just now to the old man for a closer look?"

Shangguan Yun smiled slightly, handed the token to the old man, the old man took the token, examined it carefully, and then got up and bowed deeply to Shangguan Yun.

"Childe, but the surname is Shangguan?"

Shangguan Yun nodded and took back the token from the old man's hand.

"The old man Gan Yucheng, who is the person in charge of this Qionghualou, has long received a secret order from General Zheng, saying that Shangguan Gongzi is going to Qishan Kingdom, and asked the old man to respond carefully, General Zheng also often inquires, but he doesn't want to see Gongzi all the time, and this is a few years, and today I finally waited for Gongzi. ”

Shangguan Yun smiled slightly apologetically, "I have been troubled by trivial matters in the past few years, and I have not been able to withdraw, but I have been waiting for my seniors, and I ask my seniors to forgive me!"

Ganyu thought that Shangguan Yun was a person in the cultivation world, and he came with Gongzi Qiong's token, so he would be a little arrogant, but at this moment, he saw that Shangguan Yun had a gentle attitude, spoke modestly, and had no arrogance, and he had a little more good impression of Shangguan Yun in his heart.

Hearing Shangguan Yun say this, Gan Yucheng hurriedly waved his hand and replied: "Where did the son say, the old man once heard General Zheng say that Shangguan Gongzi has a successful cultivation and outstanding character, and he is also the same door of the son Cao Feng, and he has won the appreciation of His Royal Highness Qiong, and he has long admired it. ”

"The seniors have won the award! The juniors are really rough people in the mountains and fields, and they can't stand such praise!", Shangguan Yun waved his hand and continued, "This visit by the juniors is really asking for the seniors!"

The old man has already received an order from His Royal Highness Qiong, no matter what the son wants to do, he must fully assist, why should the son be so polite, just say anything!"

"Well, thank you seniors!", Shangguan Yun bowed slightly to Gan Yucheng, and then said: "The younger generation is here, the most important thing is to inquire about the person who killed my father back then, and besides, he has been in retreat for many years, and he doesn't know much about the current situation in the world, so he also asks his seniors to explain." ”

Gan Yucheng pondered for a moment and said: "I have heard General Zheng say about the murder of Shangguan Gongzi's father, and I have been inquiring about the news all these years, but the Blood Knife Gang has been acting mysteriously in the first place, and they have never made a move over the years, and there is no news, so there is no progress in this matter. ”

Shangguan Yun frowned: "Didn't you say that there was a member of the Blood Knife Gang who revealed some news after being drunk, has this person ever been found?"

Gan Yucheng shook his head, "It's not easy to find out the Blood Knife Gang, you must know that this Blood Knife Gang has a reputation for murder in Qishan Country, in fact, it's not just us, even there are more than one or two forces in Qishan who want to find the root of the Blood Knife Gang, but after so many years, there is no result! Yes, there was a person suspected of the Blood Knife Gang who leaked some news after drinking, but that person seems to have never appeared in front of anyone since then, and I don't know if he has been wiped out a long time ago." ”

"Oh, I see. Shangguan Yun sighed, he actually had a little expectation of such a result, because what he had heard along the way was indeed the case, the Blood Knife Gang had indeed disappeared over the years, and had never appeared again.

Seeing the disappointment on Shangguan Yun's face, Gan Yucheng suddenly spoke again, "Childe, don't be discouraged, in fact, the old man has been thinking about it for the past few years, maybe he will solve the mystery of this matter, but he has not been able to find a suitable candidate, so he has never implemented it." ”

"What do you have in mind beforehand?", Shangguan Yun immediately came to his senses.

"Back then, His Royal Highness Qiong sent Guan Lin to send the secret dart to send the jade pendant was originally secret, but the news was leaked by Ling Yu, the grandson of Ling Cang, the lord of Qishan Country, thinking that the person who instructed the Blood Knife Gang to rob the dart must be related to Ling Yu, and quite close, and I have considered several forces close to Ling Yu, and I have some suspicions. ”

"One is Ling Yu's master, Huayin Sect, the second is Ling Yu's master, the current national teacher of Qishan State, and the third is Ling Yu's brother, Ling Xin, the second son of the crown prince Ling Song. ”

"How can you see that?", Shangguan Yun asked.

"Shangguan Gongzi should know that the green dragon jade pendant is said to be the key to open the Ji family's relics, I think the contents of the relics are nothing more than two, one is the treasure that the world wants, and the other is the practice that cultivators crave. ”

"Huayin Sect may not be interested in those treasures, but it will inevitably look at those cultivation exercises, if you get the news, it is very likely to make a move, so it is difficult to escape suspicion; Ling Yu's master, although he is also a member of Huayin Sect, but this person has always been black-bellied, and he is also from the royal family, and it cannot be ruled out that he has the possibility of personal monopoly; as for Ling Xin, he has always been at odds with Ling Yu, and everything that is beneficial to Ling Yu will definitely try his best to destroy it, if Ling Cang gets the jade pendant and opens the Ji family's relics, the most likely to benefit is Ling Yu, the only one in the royal family who has achieved cultivation, so if Ling Xin gets the news, I am afraid that he is very likely to make a move。 ”

After Gan Yucheng finished speaking, Shangguan Yun pondered for a moment and asked: "If it was done by the Huayin Sect or the National Teacher, in order to cover up the truth of the cultivator's attack, it is possible to fake the Blood Knife Gang, but with the strength of the Cultivator Sect, it is generally not enough to raise this kind of Jianghu gang;

"Gongzi doesn't know, Ling Yu has always had an arrogant temperament, and it is precisely because of his arrogant personality that he often speaks freely, so he will leak the news, but this person is the best person in the royal family, it is said that it is still a very rare Lei Linggen, there are many people in the royal family who are sent to Huayin Sect to cultivate, but only this son has become an elite disciple of Huayin Sect early, and it is precisely because of this that Ling Yu rarely puts other disciples of the royal family in his eyes, and therefore is not welcomed by other disciples of the royal family. ”

"As for Ling Xin, although he has not been able to cultivate, he has been smart since he was a child, he has read poetry and books on the art of war, he is quite knowledgeable in encountering problems, he is very loved by Ling Cang and Ling Song, and he has the prestige of being the first person in the royal family. In addition, one of the most important reasons why I doubt Ling Xin is that if he doesn't have an excellent temperament and controls such a new force as the Blood Knife Gang in his hands, it is difficult for ordinary people to be calm and remain silent for a few years, and this kind of mentality, Ling Yu definitely does not have it, and it is difficult for other forces to have it, but Ling Xin is possible. ”

"Ling Xin?" Shangguan Yun pondered slightly, and then asked Gan Yucheng, "I don't know what the method was just said by the seniors?"

"Get close to Ling Xin and break into the royal family!", Gan Yucheng said in a low voice, "I have had this plan for a long time, but I have never implemented it because there is no suitable candidate around me." ”

"Isn't there a good manpower in His Highness's Mansion in the Qishan royal family?", Shangguan Yun asked with some disbelieving.

Gan Yucheng heard the suspicion in Shangguan Yun's words, and said with a wry smile, "Although Her Royal Highness Qiong's mother was originally the younger sister of Ling Cang, the lord of Qishan, but now that decades have passed, most of the people who were laid down here at the beginning are too old to be used. ”

"His Royal Highness Qiong attaches great importance to the news of Qishan Kingdom, in addition to the institution of Qionghualou, there are indeed some manpower in the palace and the army, but it is a pity that Ling Cang, the lord of Qishan Kingdom, is extremely shrewd and very cautious in employing people, so few of these ambushes can be reused, and the situation is not satisfactory. ”

"As for Ling Xin, he is more shrewd than the country lord Ling Cang, and His Royal Highness Qiong has not placed a single person by his side so far. ”

"I understand! Thank you seniors for your advice!", Shangguan Yunchong Gan Yucheng thanked him!", "I also asked my seniors to tell me about the situation today." ”

In fact, Shangguan Yun is not very concerned about the situation in the world, but he has experienced the events in the Lock Demon Remnant Tower and the Peach Blossom Valley, and his views on things in the world have changed a lot, and he always faintly feels that the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao, and now there may be drastic changes in the world, especially the open participation of Huayin Sect and Wushanmen, which makes him feel that his feelings are not unreasonable. Besides, he also wanted to carefully inquire about the dynamics of the various sects in the cultivation realm, after all, he was also the person that the various sects focused on and searched for, so it was always beneficial for him to know more about the recent situation of the various sects.

Listening to Shangguan Yun's inquiry, Gan Yucheng sighed to himself first, and then said slowly: "Don't hide it from Gongzi, now with the large-scale use of troops by the Qishan Kingdom against the Bashu Kingdom, suspicion has arisen between the countries, and I am afraid that there will be greater turmoil." ”

"In addition, according to the news that came a few days ago, the war in the north has also begun, the Bohai State has been destroyed by the Qilu State, and the Xiangshui State in the south has also begun to fight with the Wu Yue Kingdom,"

"What about the Luo Shen Kingdom?", Shangguan Yun couldn't help but ask, after all, he was a member of the Luo Shen Kingdom.

"Our Luo Shen Kingdom is still peaceful now, but the old lord is terminally ill, you know the dispute between His Royal Highness Qiong and the crown prince, and the two sides are now only about to have a final showdown. ”

"I heard that the Huayin Sect and the Wushan Sect have participated in the war, can other sects participate in the war?", Shangguan Yun asked.

"Except for the Holy Mountain Gate of Northern Qi that destroyed a small sect in the Bohai Kingdom, I haven't heard of any other sects participating in the war. However, according to the news brought back by Cao Fenggongzi, because of the participation of these sects, the sects are not very peaceful now, and the quarrels are constant, and it is also said that in order to calm the disputes between the sects, the sects have agreed that the cultivation conference will be held in Changchun Gate in two years, and I don't know what the specific conference is. ”

Speaking of this, Gan Yucheng smiled, "I heard this news from General Zheng last time, so I don't know anything too specific." If Childe is interested, he might as well go back and ask General Zheng about it. ”

"Oh, the seniors have said enough, thank you seniors! But the juniors still have one more thing, I want to ask the seniors to help!"

"Childe just say it!"

Shangguan Yun smiled and said, "I'm afraid that this matter will make it difficult for the seniors!"

"Oh, Childe, but it doesn't hurt to say it!"

"I am here, can I ask my seniors not to let General Zheng and His Royal Highness Qiong know for the time being. ”

"This。。。。。。 Gan Yucheng didn't expect Shangguan Yun to make this request, and he was stunned for a while.

"Seniors don't have to be embarrassed!", Shangguan Yun said with a smile, "I just asked the seniors to report a few days later, and I didn't let the seniors keep it secret." If the seniors are really embarrassed, the juniors are not reluctant!"

"Okay!", Gan Yucheng also smiled, "I wonder if Gongzi thinks it is appropriate to be late?"

"Three days! If there are more, I'm afraid that the seniors will not be able to explain it at that time."

"Okay, then follow what Childe said!"
