The winter solstice, also known as Sanjiu, is the coldest day of the entire winter. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Leizhou City was already shrouded in extreme cold, and even if you wore more, you would feel the coolness in your bones.

The goose-feather-like snow still keeps falling, and the entire Leizhou City has become a frozen and snowy place, with ice bars under the eaves, the longest of which is a foot long, like rows of arrows, which makes people look at it and be daunted.

In an unusually elegant courtyard in Leizhou City, the temperature was terrifying at the moment, a young man ignored the heavy snow, sitting cross-legged in the courtyard, and in front of him stood a three-legged tripod with a purple body of three zhang.

At this moment, a white flame burned under the roof, and the intense temperature scorched the air, which looked a little distorted, and countless goose feather-like snow flakes were vaporized before they were near.

A large amount of sweat had already broken out on the young man's forehead, his face was full of nervousness, his hands pinched the magic trick, and a cyan light shot out from his hand, blasting into the huge purple tripod.

A stream of fragrance permeated from the ding, smelling it, it seems that the whole body will be comfortable.

"Success or failure is in this move, Zixia Ding will open it for me!"

Li Dao shouted, his hands changed, quickly switching between complex techniques, his right hand became a finger, and he pointed towards the purple tripod, a touch of cyan brilliance lifted the lid of the tripod, only to see the light was sheng, and in an instant, countless pills flew out of the tripod, full of brilliance and spirituality, as if they were about to escape in all directions.

"Close!"

Li Dao flicked his sleeves, and a huge cyan energy turned into a big net, and immediately covered all those pills, and all of them were included in the Qingguang Ring under great joy, and he laughed.

"This Xuanji Pill has been tested three times, and it has finally been refined by me!"

Li Dao said to himself, his expression was full of self-satisfaction, and his mood was extremely happy.

Since he built the foundation, the Chaolu Pill had lost its effect on him, and only by refining the pill of the foundation building period could he meet his daily cultivation needs.

After returning from the Purple Mountain, Li Dao has been preparing for this matter.

He searched from the Nadan Sutra and found that only this Xuanji Pill was suitable for him to refine, and it happened that there were enough medicinal materials in the Qingguang Ring, so he planned to open the furnace for alchemy.

It's just that alchemy is extremely difficult, even if Li Dao has some experience and everything is ready, he still failed twice, and almost consumed the elixir.

This third time was his last chance, if he failed, the elixir would be exhausted, and he could only open the furnace after he went to Yunmengze to collect the elixir again.

Fortunately, this time I was lucky, and I accumulated experience in the first two times, and I was actually refined by him.

There were about hundreds of pills in this furnace, which was enough for him to use for a while, and his alchemy skills had soared, and he couldn't help but be extremely happy.

Just about to take back Ziyunding and return to the house to meditate, at this time, the second prince Lin Zhenyun hurriedly shouted outside: "Is the senior here, I have something urgent to discuss with you, please open the door and let me in." ”

Li Dao frowned, in this cold day, the second prince is not in the mansion to have fun, what are you looking for him to do.

Because he set up a ban at the door, no one could enter without his consent, and the second prince could only wait outside.

Li Dao flicked his robe, removed the prohibition at the door, and said, "Come in." ”

The second prince quickly pushed open the door and walked in, with a panicked face, as if something important had happened.

"Seniors are not good, I just got the news, the imperial brother will ascend the throne in Beijing at the end of this month, if he is given the throne, I will become a chaotic minister and thief, when the time comes, he will be orthodox, my situation will be very difficult, even if the spring wave the army to the north, but the morality has been lost, then there will be hundreds of people to rebel against me, this is very bad!"

The second prince said in a panic, his expression full of anxiety.

Li Dao was also a little surprised when he heard this, this news came too suddenly.

I heard that the eldest prince did not find the jade seal of the heirloom and did not ascend the throne for the time being, so Li Dao was not in a hurry, and planned to lead Lin Zhenyun to the capital after some time, but now it seems that he is going to speed up.

Whether he ascended the throne or not ascended the throne has a lot to do with him, and it is definitely not a moral loss like Lin Zhenyun said, but there is another mystery.

Once the eldest prince ascended the throne and became the emperor, he was added to the ninety-five and obtained the protection of the Dragon Vein of the Snow Moon Empire, and at that time, Li Dao had some concerns about killing him.

It may not matter to a mortal, but for a monk, the consequences are severe.

Assassinating the emperor of a country is tantamount to interfering with the luck of a country and destroying the dragon vein, and when the time comes, it will be entangled in cause and effect, and the monks will eventually reap the consequences.

As long as you watch the mortal world never have a monk himself to control Sheji as an emperor, you can know how powerful it is, the way of heaven has its own fairness, although the monk has great power, but he can't act recklessly on a country's luck, otherwise he will be punished by heaven.

If it is light, it will be repaired to land, and if it is heavy, it will be fatal.

Li Dao has always had a doubt in his heart, that is, the reason why he encountered an accident after breaking through the Jindan realm, he was very suspicious of whether he returned to Chu State to take revenge after building the foundation back then, and killed his own uncle, that is, the emperor of Chu State, so it caused Longyun to be damaged, was entangled in cause and effect, and finally got retribution.

Although it is said that a monk walks against the sky and is not afraid of any calamity, it is one thing not to know, and it is a fool's act to do it if he knows.

Li Dao asked solemnly, "Is your news reliable?"

The second prince nodded solemnly and said: "There will be absolutely no mistake, this matter has been posted, and the world knows about it." ”

"I see, in that case, then we should go and kill him before he ascends the throne, and help you ascend to the throne. You go and deploy first, hand over the army to your cronies, and at the same time write a letter to the king of Qin, let him pay attention to it, and if he gets the news at that time, please ask him to immediately send troops to Qinzhou to surround Suyang, be sure not to make a mistake, we will set off in two days!"

The second prince retreated with a slight expression.

"It's always time to come, it's better to end it quickly, kill the palm honor, get the spirit pool, find the teleportation order, it's time for me to return to Beihai, I've stayed in this mortal world for too long!"

Li Dao sighed, immediately returned to the house, and began to meditate and refine his qi.

Two days later, Li Dao left Leizhou with the second prince, this time just the two of them, even Zhu Tong and Xueying did not take them away, this is to prevent the Nafeng family from making trouble, and deliberately left them on guard.

The second prince handed over all the military power to the monk of the west mad to take care of, so that he must reorganize the army to prevent the enemy from crossing the river and sneak attack.

With Li Dao's current cultivation of the foundation, it is not what it used to be, under his full strength of the imperial sword flight, he arrived at the capital in just one day, and the two of them disguised themselves as ordinary people and sneaked into the capital.

Suyang is worthy of being the capital, the city is huge, the construction is extremely vast, a Vermilion Bird Avenue runs through the north and south, divides the city into two halves, the street is enough to accommodate dozens of carriages at the same time, extremely wide and atmospheric.

The road surface is paved with bluestone bricks, which is not afraid of rain, and is unusually neat, no matter whether the weather is good or bad, the carriage can gallop on it, which is extremely convenient.

Although it is the middle of winter and there is a lot of snow, there is not a trace of snow on the streets, and it is cleaned up so that people will feel good at a glance.

On both sides of the road are rows of shops, all of which are built of extraordinary height and luxury, and a dazzling array of goods.

At this time, it is night, although the sky is dark, but the capital is brightly lit, compared with the cold of Leizhou City, the sun at this time is extremely lively, the street is crowded, bustling, the nightlife has just begun.

Li Dao and the second prince were tired all the way, and they were a little tired, so they discussed finding a hotel to eat and stay.

After a casual stroll, the two walked into a hotel called Xianyunlou, asked for a private room, called Xiao Er, ordered a table of wine and food, and enjoyed it.

Originally, with Li Dao's current cultivation, he could already open the valley for dozens of days without being hungry, and he didn't have such a big need for appetite, mainly considering the second prince, he was a mortal, how could he do it without eating.

Most of these dishes are eaten by the second prince in large chunks, Li Dao just ate some wine, just drank a pot of wine, and was not yet satisfied, and was about to call Xiao Er to continue, when the voice from the box next to him attracted him.

"Brother Huang, I heard that no, there have been many babies in the Jingshi who have disappeared inexplicably recently, which is very weird!"

A hoarse voice said.

The person named Brother Huang immediately continued: "Why haven't you heard that the people who sued at the gate of Jingzhao Mansion are all piled up, it is said that this matter has alarmed the eldest prince, and he is about to send a forbidden army to investigate this matter, and I don't know who is so ruthless, even the baby will not let go!"

The man sighed, clearly moved by compassion.

At this time, another unfamiliar voice sounded, and said a little mysteriously: "Brother Xu, Brother Huang, I have some guesses about this, and I don't know if it's true, but I also heard what people said." Not long ago, the Wild Wolf Gang and the Iron Blood Gate went to war, it is said that the leader of the Wild Wolf Gang was seriously injured, and I heard that he practiced a kind of exercise, which needs to use the blood of devouring babies to improve his skills, I guess it is the Wild Wolf Gang who has taken away these babies and used them to heal their helpers!"

"Sizzle?!"

"Sizzle?!"

Two deep breaths sounded, and it was obvious that the first two were shocked by these words.

The man surnamed Huang said nervously: "Brother Liu, this wolf gang is the head of the four major gangs in the capital, and there are many ears and eyes, don't talk nonsense, otherwise it will be eavesdropped, and we will die without a place to bury!"

"That's it, Brother Liu's words will stop here, whether it is true or not, there will naturally be a day when it will come out, and I won't discuss it later. ”

The man surnamed Xu also said in a frightened voice.

"Hehe, don't be nervous, two brothers, I'll mention this to the two of you, it's extremely hidden here, God knows you know I know, don't worry, it's okay!"

The man surnamed Liu smiled and didn't care.

However, he didn't mention it next, but took the initiative to talk about some interesting things, obviously still very worried in his heart.

Li Dao retracted his ears, and his heart was full of surprise, why is this wild wolf gang so familiar, he didn't think about it for a long time, it seems that he had heard of it somewhere.

The second prince also heard the conversation just now at this time, he was even more excited than Li Dao, and quietly glanced at Li Dao, signaled to leave here, and had something to say to him.

After the two left the hotel, they came to a remote corner, and the second prince said: "The wolf gang is the four dark forces of the Beijing Division, originally loyal to me, and their gang leader is my henchman. It's just that I heard that this person disappeared without a trace not long ago, I thought something had changed, but I didn't expect to come out again, it seems that this person has betrayed me, otherwise the eldest prince would not be so anxious to ascend the throne, he must have dedicated the jade seal of the country!"

Lin Zhenyun gritted his teeth and said, his expression contained annoyance.

"What do you want?"

Li Dao asked directly.

"Help me kill him, shame on you!

Lin Zhenyun said with murderous intent.

"It's a small thing, but it's inevitable that it will startle the snake, are you sure you want to do it?"

Li Dao frowned and said with some dissatisfaction.

Lin Zhenyun was filled with anger at the moment, and he had lost his mind, Li Dao decided to let him sober up, a burst of aura erupted, and suddenly the pressure was put on him, Lin Zhenyun's body was shocked, and he couldn't help bending down slightly.

"Senior....... I don't want to blindly try to be happy, but I want to use this person to lure out Lin Zhenyue and take the opportunity to kill him, such a big thing can be done!"

The second prince hurriedly explained.

"Oh, that's what you think, you want to come up with a trick to lure the enemy, it sounds pretty good!"

Li Dao nodded, then withdrew his momentum and agreed with his plan.

With Li Dao's means, he will definitely be able to control the wolf gang leader very smoothly, and then he will leak the secret to the eldest prince that he has seen Lin Zhenyun, at this time, the eldest prince wants to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, there will definitely be no doubts, at that time is when Li Dao makes a move, no matter how many guards he has, it will not help.

Otherwise, he would be cowering in the palace, guarded by Zhangzun and others, and it would be quite tricky.

The two discussed for a while, and felt more and more that this matter was promising, so they went to the wolf gang's lair under the leadership of Lin Zhenyun.
