CHAPTER IX

The candle flame swayed in the wind,

The faint flames,

Suddenly it became bright, and then it dimmed. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Light and shadow swayed inexplicably in the hall, and the atmosphere gradually became gloomy and terrifying.

"Whew!"

A howl of breaking wind.

The general slashed at Qiu Chuji's neck with a resolute swing.

The cold sword light flashed and disappeared, but it turned slightly in mid-air inexplicably.

Hey?

The general was surprised, and suddenly found that the knife in his hand suddenly had an invisible huge force out of thin air, which made the knife become indescribably heavy, and suddenly out of his control.

What's going on?

The general was shocked to find that he slashed into the air with a knife, and the sword light turned so strangely that it immediately deviated from the direction and fell to the edge of Qiu Chuji's neck, and slipped out dangerously.

Everyone in the hall also noticed that something was wrong at this time, and they all looked at the general.

The general looked at the knife in his hand blankly, his eyes were shocked, what was the strange change that suddenly appeared in the knife just now?

The general turned around and glanced around, and the hall was empty. There were only two Taoist priests who fell to the ground and were tightly tied by Qiu Chuji's side.

Moreover, the mouths of these two Taoist priests were still blocked, and they couldn't even speak.

In the entire hall, there was no one except the prince and the six masters.

Who stopped him from killing Qiu just now?

Thinking of the strange method of blocking the knife out of thin air, the general's heart sank, he looked at the six masters in the hall, and said slowly: "Ben will be ordered to execute, but just now someone secretly stopped Ben from wielding the knife, you are all masters of the palace, have you ever found anything abnormal?"

As soon as the general's voice fell, Hou Tonghai couldn't help but exclaim:

"Ah, you mean someone was making a mess just now?"

Several masters in the hall changed their faces one after another, who could they sneak to their side silently without being noticed?

These masters looked suspiciously left and right in the hall, but they didn't find anything.

It was Du Bai who was the most calm, and said lightly: "General, cut again." ”

After the general received the order, he slowly walked behind the fuselage of the hill, the horse stood steadily, he glanced at the knife in his hand, his face sank, and his eyes showed a cruel and fierce light, only to see that the muscles of his whole body bulged up suddenly, and it seemed that he used all his strength to slash at the neck of the qiu chuji.

The cold sword light was like a crescent moon, and it disappeared in a flash.

At this time, everyone watched as the general's knife swung out, and strangely turned slightly in mid-air, deviated from the direction, and slipped down again from the edge of the neck of the mound.

Someone really messed up!

But why can't everyone in the hall see a single figure?

Could it be...... Ghost?

The night wind was cold, and everyone in the hall suddenly felt that the surrounding air was gloomy, as if something strange was peeking at them in the dark.

Peng Lianhu took a deep breath and suddenly said in a loud voice: "Which master is coming, please show up." ”

"At first sight...... ...... at first sight"

His voice was long, and it couldn't stop wafting in the hall, but there was never a trace of outsiders in this room, and there was no superfluous sound.

There was a sudden silence in the hall, and there was a strange silence.

Peng Lianhu's palm suddenly broke out in some cold sweat.

The six masters couldn't sit still any longer, they all stood up, and slowly walked to Du Bai's side and formed a circle, guarding his safety.

Du Bai's hand had already reached into his arms and held the pistol tightly. He was not intimidated by the strange scene in front of him, but aroused his ferocity, and his eyes suddenly became fierce:

"Master Lingzhi, you go and kill him, no matter what happens, keep cutting down, kill gods when you meet gods, kill ghosts when you meet ghosts!"

"Obey the orders of the prince. ”

The Master of Wisdom smirked and strode forward without fear.

He took the saber handed by the general, and immediately transported the internal force of his whole body, urging his tantric mudra to the extreme.

I saw that two white gases suddenly erupted from the Venerable Master's nose, and a strong wind immediately rose around his body. The huge red Tibetan robe was raised all at once, and it shook violently in the strong wind, and let out a cry of raging wind.

At this moment, the Venerable Master looked like an evil god in a foreign land, with endless killing intent, as if he was about to take people's lives, as if he were about to take people's lives.

Tantric miracles, the momentum is really extraordinary.

The Master of Wisdom held the saber tightly in his black hand like an iron hoop, and slashed at Qiu Chuji's neck little by little.

The knife slashed in mid-air, and suddenly there was a shock, and sure enough, there was an invisible, strange and huge force.

"Haha, good internal strength. Which bastard with his head and tail hidden dares to ruin the good deeds of the prince?"

Unlike the general, the Master of Wisdom was a master of martial arts, and as soon as he came into contact with this mysterious power, he suddenly understood that this was the true qi of a true master.

Although I don't understand, how can a master's pure internal force appear on the knife out of thin air. However, the Venerable Master was extremely brave in temperament, and he simply competed with this mysterious internal force and did not back down.

Press this disobedient knife with all your strength and slash down a little.

Chop a little more.

That ethereal true qi is no match for such a murderer after all.

The sword of the Master of Wisdom was slashed down hard and slowly!

Just as his knife slashed through the skin on the neck of the mound, cutting a bloody streak.

A sleeve suddenly flew out of the shadows behind Qiu Chuji, like a soft whip weighing a thousand pounds, and struck the sword of the Master of Wisdom.

The Master of Wisdom was suddenly struck hard, only to feel a strong force attack, and the knife in his hand immediately could not hold it, and bounced back to his chest.

He shuddered, and immediately felt a sharp pain coming from his chest. The body couldn't help but shake twice, and fell to the ground.

The Master of Lingzhi gasped like a cow, although he was seriously injured, he still looked fierce, he looked at the crane-haired Taoist priest behind the fuselage at the hill fiercely, and laughed a few times: "It's so amazing, you stinky Taoist priest can actually borrow things to transmit true qi, such cultivation is really amazing." The internal strength of your Quanzhen Sect is really broad and profound, and it is remarkable. ”

The hall masters listened to the words of the Lingzhi Master, and then looked at the Crane Hair Taoist who had been silent, and suddenly understood.

It turned out that the general slashed the air with two swords, as if he was being teased by ghosts, and the scene was actually the means of this old Taoist priest who was not amazing.

This old Taoist priest quietly put his sleeves next to Qiu Chuji, and as soon as the general and the Lingzhi Master stepped on it, the old Taoist priest relied on the extremely mysterious and true internal strength of the Quanzhen Sect, and with the help of his sleeves, he passed on his profound internal strength, blocked the general's butcher's knife, and saved Qiu Chuji.

A few decades ago, the world's recognized number one martial arts master was Wang Chongyang of the Quanzhen Sect.

Wang Chongyang's martial arts Taoism left for the Quanzhen Sect is subtle and mysterious, and it is very powerful, so above the rivers and lakes, the Quanzhen Sect faintly has the momentum of the world's martial arts, and its reputation is extremely prominent.

Although they have all heard of the prestige of the Quanzhen Sect, each of them has an extremely fierce temperament and has enough confidence in their martial arts, but they do not take the Quanzhen Sect very seriously.

At this time, this always silent old Taoist priest showed his hand, and he was actually able to release his true qi and pass on his power through things, this incredible method of using his true qi was really unprecedented, and it was extremely magical.

The six masters of the palace are really eye-opening.

However, although the internal strength of the Hefa Taoist is very magical, and it has also scared the six masters of the palace into being suspicious, once he shows his traces, he can no longer suppress these murderers.

Peng Lianhu, Sha Tongtian, and Hou Tonghai have cooperated for many years, and the eyes of the three of them looked at each other and knew their respective intentions.

They gathered together and slowly walked down the steps until they reached the side of the Taoist priest Hefa before slowly spreading out and surrounding the Taoist priest in the center.

Ouyang Ke saw that the three murderers were ready to attack at any time. He didn't fall behind, he followed, but Ouyang Ke was extremely careful, and when he saw the Lingzhi Master fall to the side, he walked over to observe his injuries, wanting to see how powerful the Hefa Daoist was and what kind of injury the Lingzhi Master could be.

Walking in front of the Master Lingzhi, Ouyang Ke smiled with concern, and then helped the Master to the side of the chair and sat down, at this time Ouyang Ke put his hand on the wrist of the Master Lingzhi, and observed the injuries in his body through the pulse, gradually, Ouyang Ke learned about the seriousness of the Master Lingzhi's injury, his expression gradually became solemn, he turned his head to the Taoist priest Hefa and asked: "Your Excellency's internal strength is not under the opportunity of Qiu, isn't it also one of the seven sons of Quanzhen?"

Taoist Crane glanced at Ouyang Ke, sighed slightly, did not answer, but spit out in his mouth, and spit out the cloth stuffed in his mouth at once, and then he trembled, and the hands that were tightly tied by iron ropes suddenly contracted strangely, as if there were no bones, and gradually shrunk, until they were strangely shrunk to the size of a baby's arm.

A few hoo-hu-la-la.

The tightly wound chains all fell from the body of the Crane Hair Daoist.

The master in the hall saw that this Taoist priest showed his bone-shrinking skill again, and he was surprised, and he was jealous, but he was even more curious about his identity.

Ouyang Ke's martial arts are the highest among the six masters of the palace, and he has a set of spirit snake fist techniques, and he also has the miraculous effect of shrinking bones. Just now, he used a spirit snake fist to break through the defensive sword circle of Qiu Chuji.

Ouyang Ke has a deep understanding of bone shrinking skills. Therefore, he can better understand the brilliance of this Hefa Taoist monk's bone shrinking skill, and the Taoist monk's bone shrinking skill has reached the realm of gasification and easy tendon forging. And the fact that Taoist Crane Fa can perform such a realm of bone-shrinking kung fu at will shows that his internal cultivation is even higher than himself, and he has cultivated to an unfathomable level.

The crane hair Taoist used his magical kung fu to take off the chains on his body, and there was no smug look on his face, and he was still as calm as water. He stood up slowly, bowed his hands to the masters of the palace one by one, bent down and bowed to Du Bai, and said lightly: "Poor Dao Ma Yu! ”

Ma Yu?

When the six masters of the palace heard this name, they were all shocked.

Hou Tonghai even shouted out in a lost voice: "What? You are Ma Yu, the head of the Quanzhen Sect?"

No one could see that this unsurprisingly ordinary old Taoist priest turned out to be the head of the Seven Sons of Quanzhen, who inherited the Quanzhen Sect of Wang Chongyang's Taoism.

That's an amazing character.

After Ma Yu took charge of the Quanzhen Sect, it developed very rapidly, and gradually the Taoism flourished, and believers were everywhere. It has a deep influence in both the Jin and Song dynasties.

But everyone knows that although the Quanzhen Sect is becoming more and more prosperous, the core of the Quanzhen Sect is the Quanzhen Seven Sons, and once there are no Quanzhen Seven Sons, the Quanzhen Sect is afraid that it will be destroyed at any time.

And now, Ma Yu, the head of the seven sons of Quanzhen, and Qiu Chuji, the most outstanding of the seven sons, are all in the palace at this moment, plus the iron-footed immortal king.

If these three people are gone, I am afraid that the Quanzhen Sect will suddenly turn from prosperity to decline and slowly decline.

Du Bai glanced at the old Taoist priest lightly, and was a little surprised by his identity, but that's all.

At this time, Du Bai was in power, and he was already one of the most powerful figures in the Jin Kingdom, so how could he take the head of a mere Quanzhen Sect to heart. He snorted softly and asked Ma Yu coldly, "You are the head of the Quanzhen Sect?"

Ma Yu nodded and replied, "Exactly." ”

Du Bai sneered: "Among the assassins who assassinated this king, I didn't expect the head of the Quanzhen Sect to also come, it seems that your Quanzhen Sect is really planning to oppose this king." ”

Ma Yu's eyes were extremely calm, he looked at Du Bai, shook his head slightly, and said slowly: "The prince is clear-minded, I believe that he can naturally see and understand, our senior brother did not want to assassinate you, but Senior Brother Qiu had too deep expectations for you, and after listening to some rumors that you were not good, he was impulsive and broke into the palace by mistake." It was all just a misunderstanding. ”

"Misunderstanding?"

Du Bai smiled coldly and said categorically to Ma Yu: "No, you are assassins." ”

Of course, Du Bai knew that these three Taoist priests did not want to assassinate him, but after all, the palace was its own territory, so how could people be allowed to come when they said it? Besides, after Qiu Chuji told the secret of Yan Kang's life experience, Du Bai had to kill people and kill him, let alone let him go.

Ma Yu didn't understand Du Bai's thoughts, thinking that he didn't believe in himself, so he couldn't help frowning, sighed helplessly, and bowed deeply to Du Bai again: "The prince sees that we are really not assassins. ”

Hahahaha......

Du Bai suddenly burst into an inexplicable burst of laughter, which startled everyone.

Ma Yu was also taken aback, he didn't know why Du Bai was laughing so evilly, and soon, this old Taoist priest, who always had a quiet and kind face, heard Du Bai say to himself in an extremely domineering tone:

"This king says you are assassins, and you are assassins. The assassination of this king is what a good excuse for war. ”

Ma Yu was stunned, as if he was stunned, and when he realized what Du Bai said, he was shocked and couldn't help shouting in a hurry:

"Lord Wang, you actually want to use the assassination of the poor threesome as an excuse to ...... with the Great Song Dynasty War. ”

Du Bai smiled slightly, and he raised his head proudly in Ma Yu's panicked look, his eyes shining:

"There will be no war, this king is not ready for war, but this excuse for war is enough to extort a lot of gold and silver treasures from the Song Dynasty, and when the time comes, the Song court will definitely expropriate the people in order to make up enough money, what about the people of the Song Dynasty? This king browsed through the ancient and modern history, and it can be seen that this court, which is hated by the people, will never last long. And this king can use the wealth sent by the Song Dynasty to raise troops and save up, and when the Song Dynasty becomes more and more chaotic, this king will lead the troops south in one fell swoop. When the time comes......"

When Du Bai said this, he deliberately stopped and laughed wildly again.

Only then did Ma Yu suddenly understand Du Bai's conspiracy plan, and his face changed again and again, and he was deeply frightened.

On the side, Ouyang Ke saw that Du Bai's expression was extremely proud, and he also stepped forward to joke and said: "When the time comes, you will unify the Southern Song Dynasty, and you will be able to become the lord of the world......."

When the six masters of the palace heard Du Bai's ambition, they all became excited, so another round of sycophants rolled in.

These masters praised Du Bai one after another, and the eagerness and diligence made Ma Yu on the side not even have a chance to interject.

Ma Yu looked at the six masters of the palace in amazement, except for Ouyang Ke and Lingzhi Venerable, the other four were all Song people. But when they heard that Du Bai wanted to destroy the Song Dynasty, instead of being angry, they couldn't help but come up to flatter and curry favor with this person who wanted to destroy their country.

Such a traitor to the country and seeking glory, no matter how high his martial arts are, he is not a hero.

It's so shameless......

Du Bai heard the sycophants of these masters rolling in, and his heart was also very comfortable, and after laughing a few times, he couldn't stop anymore, and kept laughing so much that he narrowed his eyes into a line:

"As long as you are loyal to the king, of course, glory and wealth are indispensable, and there is an errand right now, with many benefits, I wonder if any of you want to go?"

"What kind of errand? I will naturally obey the orders of the prince. ”

The voices of the six masters replied very neatly.

Du Bai's eyes rolled slightly, this matter had been thinking about it in his heart for a while. At this time, he just said: "There are several high-ranking officials in the Song Dynasty who have been secretly having fornications with the Jin State, and through them, I will send 2,000 elite soldiers into the territory of the Song Dynasty. Prepare for the later attack on the Song Dynasty. ”

When the six masters heard this, they glanced at each other and looked at each other, not understanding what Du Bai meant.

How could the errand of marching and fighting come to think of us, and ask us to be assassins.

Just when the six masters were puzzled, Du Bai looked at them and smiled, and his smile seemed to have a lot of meaning: "Masters, if you want to be an official, you can tell this king, and this king will arrange for you to enter the Song Dynasty with these two thousand elite soldiers and become a magistrate in the Song Dynasty." ”

"Ahh ”

Hou Tonghai screamed in disbelief and shouted: "The prince actually wants us to be officials?"

Du Bai smiled slightly, and looked at Hou Tonghai with a smile: "Yes, don't you want to be an official master?"

"Yes, of course. How big an official can you give us, my lord?"

Hou Tonghai was born in the Yellow River Gang, and he has always been the target of the government's extermination, but at this time, Du Bai suddenly said that he could make him an official, and the change in this role made him feel new and excited.

Peng Lianhu's face was like an expression, and he secretly disdained it when he saw Hou Tonghai so excited.

This little prince is unpredictable and ruthless, how can he be a good-looking character. You Hou Tonghai don't know how many catties and taels you have, if you don't do well and miss the prince's big event, can you afford it?

Peng Lianhu secretly did not move, watching the changes, but he saw that his friend Sha Tongtian seemed to be tempted, so he hurriedly stepped forward, blocked in front of Sha Tongtian, and after saluting Du Bai, he said: "I am grateful for the kindness of the prince, but I am a rough martial artist on the rivers and lakes, this official is afraid that it will not be good, in case of missing the prince's major affairs, I can't afford it." ”

When Hou Tonghai heard Peng Lianhu's words, he was a little anxious, and said to Du Bai: "Little prince, the master of Peng Zhai is not an official, I will do." ”

Du Bai glanced at Peng Lianhu and immediately understood his concern. He smiled lightly and continued: "Don't worry, Lord Pengzhai, this king knows that you are used to being free, if you are an official who is diligent in government and loves the people and shares worries for the country, you will inevitably be restrained, but this time this time the king arranged for you to be an official, and you don't need to work hard, and you don't need to be too restrained.

Don't worry about messing up the place, the more messy you are, the easier it will be for the people in these places to force the people to rebel, and when the time comes, once there is chaos, these **** will shake the foundation of the Song Dynasty in the end.

In short, the more silver you make for this king, the bigger the king will arrange for you to be an official, and the more chaos you make in the Song Dynasty, the more rewards this king will give you.

How about it, the officials that this king has arranged for you, you are still satisfied. ”

After listening to Du Bai's words, the people in the hall didn't expect that there was such a deep meaning in his arrangement. Deng Shi was shocked by Du Bai's sinister scheming city government again.

However, if you can be a big corrupt official who acts recklessly and preys on the people.

Actually, it's pretty good.

I have to say that Du Bai's arrangements are simply happy in the hearts of these murderers.

These were originally masters hired by the old prince, but after listening to Du Bai's arrangement, they naturally became his subordinates. If they were to do something again, would they refuse?

Du Bai saw that the six masters had already moved, and said with a smile: "When you come to the Song Dynasty to be officials, you will inevitably have conflicts with people, you are all masters, but you must also pay attention to your own safety, you really encounter troubles that cannot be solved, you can ask for help from the general who infiltrated the Song Dynasty." If you encounter a trouble that cannot be solved by two thousand elite soldiers, you must keep a useful body, and this palace still has a place for you. ”

Du Bai turned over so much and treated each other sincerely, Rao is these murderers, and he was also moved. They all said that they must be loyal to Du Bai and do their best.

For a while, everyone in the hall pushed back and forth, and there was a feeling of harmony between the monarch and the minister.

In fact, Du Bai would not trust anyone at all, if it weren't for the strong wills of these martial arts masters, Du Bai would have used 'Fushou Yan' to control them a long time ago. Fortunately, when he revealed that he could be the emperor, these masters all had the heart to take refuge, although they may not be very loyal, but they finally subdued them.

Ma Yu, who seemed to have been forgotten by everyone, had been listening to the conversation of these people, and when he heard Du Bai's various insidious arrangements for the Great Song Dynasty, his expression became more and more painful, but when he heard it slowly, he gradually showed a calm look.

The old Taoist priest looked at Du Bai and asked very seriously: "Lord Wang, do you really want to destroy the Song Dynasty?"

Du Bai didn't bother to pay attention to him, waved his hand casually, and said to the six masters around him: "Everyone, kill him." ”

"Since the prince has always been obsessed, Poor Dao can only fight for his life and fight for the Great Song Dynasty. ”

Ma Yu sighed deeply, and saw that Du Bai was incorrigible, so he gave up persuasion, and made preparations in his heart to assassinate him no matter what, even if he was fighting for his life.

The six masters joined forces again and rushed towards Ma Yu.

Ma Yu stepped forward, did not retreat or avoid the ubiquitous attacks from all directions four times, stretched out his palms, used his whole body strength, and met him.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

Suddenly!

There was a thunderclap outside the window, followed by a sharp whistling.

A tremendous force tore the window to pieces.

Du Bai was suddenly startled, and watched a rusty iron gun burst into the window.

Under the shock, the six masters hurriedly returned in time.

However, the main seat of the Flower Hall was dozens of steps away from the place where they were fighting, and in this world, absolutely no one could cross such a long distance in one step.

The timing of the arrival was really just right, and when everyone had no time to rescue, he rushed to Du Bai's side.

Qiu Chuji, who was seriously injured and wanted to die, opened his eyes wide in shock when he saw someone coming, and his throat, which was difficult to even breathe, suddenly roared out like thunder: "Oh my God...... You areβ€”Yang Tiexin......"

In the flower hall, there was an instant silence,

The moonlight was cold, pouring down from the window.

The cold light shone on Yang Tiexin's body, pulling out a long shadow, and in the middle of the shadow, it was Du Bai.

Yang Tiexin lowered his head lightly and looked at the person in the shadows.

Suddenly, two lines of tears flowed down his face.

Eyes ......

It seems that there are endless vicissitudes.
