Chapter 19: The Conspiracy of the Imperial Court

West Lake, Jingci Temple, glazed tile ridge, solemn and grandiose.

The cold night breeze blows, and twelve octagonal wind lanterns hang high around the ancient temple, making the nearby lake as bright as day, and the melodious bells are empty over the vast West Lake.

Between the lakeside, I don't know when there are all kinds of rivers and lakes and grass, everyone is silent, looking at the bell tower in the distance with a solemn face.

Suddenly, as soon as the bell fell, I saw a person flying out of the bell tower, with his wings stretched out, and lightning shot out.

There was an immediate commotion among the heroes, and everyone came here late at night to receive an invitation from the abbot of Jingci Temple, and they were secretly speculating about the specific purpose.

At this time, when they saw the people coming, they were all frowning and concentrating on vigilance. It turned out that this person was Shangguan Yunxin, the master of Lingyan Pavilion in Zhejiang.

These gangs of reckless people from all over the world who have come to hear the news recently, because of the common purpose of coveting the secret records of Qiankun, they have besieged the Jiangnan Perak Hall.

That Shangguan Yunxin is well-known in black and white, and many local reckless people have heard about his large-scale arrest of Manichaeans not long ago. Thinking of the things they have surrounded the Perak Hall these days, they are all in the dark, for fear of being approached by the government.

After Shangguan Yunxin landed, he glanced at the lakeside heroes, seemed to be extremely satisfied with everyone's reaction, and said with a smile: "I've kept you waiting for a long time, gather everyone to come tonight, I don't know if you have all arrived?"

As he spoke, he saw dozens of officers and soldiers around him, surrounding the crowd.

Qunhao's face changed greatly, and he was in an uproar, only to hear someone say something, and said extremely dissatisfied: "What does this mean, Lord Captain." Why did you besiege us without making a sound?" the voice was so loud and loud that it could be heard all over the lakeside.

Shangguan Yunxin's face sank, and he said loudly: "It was that friend who spoke." Your Excellency's soul dementorship is very skillful, and Shangguan Yunxin is going to see it too!"

When the man had spoken, he fell silent. Shangguan Yunxin looked at it with a spicy eye, and he couldn't find out the origin of this person's identity, but he didn't dare to be too careless about this group of people, who knows if there are any masters hidden among them. Thinking about it, he remembered the thief he had seen on the Fang La boat again, and his heart was annoyed.

Glance at the clues. He waved his hands and said, "Everyone, everyone, please be quiet, and listen to Shangguan Yunxin's words." ”

Only then did Qunhao quiet down.

A small soldier who looked like an attendant walked forward quickly, and handed a rectangular brocade box in his hand to Shangguan Yunxin very respectfully.

Qunhao's face was solemn, staring at Shangguan Yunxin deadly, secretly guarding himself.

Soon, everyone saw Ancient Yunxin take out a roll of yellow silk cloth from the brocade box.

There are a few old rivers and lakes who know the goods at a glance. The face is white, this thing, they are not uncommon, but it is generally not a good thing.

The silk cloth roll unfolded with a "swish". I heard Shangguan Yunxin shouting loudly: "The holy purpose is this, all the martial arts heroes kneel down to receive the order!"

Qunhao's heart was cold, and he didn't know what the court was going to do. A few of the Green Forest Thieves had already knelt down, and the rest of them were all looking at each other.

Shangguan Yunxin's eyes widened. He shouted, "Is it true that those who do not kneel want to disobey the holy decree and plot rebellion?"

"Rebellion!" everyone shuddered. Who knows how many officers and soldiers are ambushed outside, and if they are convicted, I am afraid that there will be no place to redress their grievances.

The deterrent effect of these words was good, and soon, most of the kneeling below was already half. Those who are still standing are either fierce and fierce, or they are good at kung fu.

Shangguan Yunxin didn't bother to care, and began to read the holy decree: "Fengtian carrier, Emperor Zhao said: I heard that the heroes of Hangzhou Mansion gathered today, and there are many strange people. Lingyan Pavilion set up a special 'group of heroes' to select people with advanced martial arts to join the club. The top three masters are all named 'Dragon Mighty Generals', and the rest of the people are also given official titles according to the level of martial arts. ”

When the group of heroes in the audience was hesitant and couldn't guess the intentions of the government, they saw Shangguan Yunxin's tone cold, and continued: "Those who have no intention of being rich and noble, let them go back, but in the future, they will obey the orders of the 'Heroes Association', and those who violate the order will be killed!"

As soon as the words fell, a column of forbidden soldiers in full armor surrounded them with firearms, gunpowder whips and arrows, thistle fireballs, thunderbolt fireballs, and so on.

Seeing that the situation was not good, a few men who had paid well for themselves chose the opportunity to escape.

There was a burst of thunder and fire **** in mid-air, only to hear more than a dozen shocks of "bang ......", followed by a scream, several people have been blown to pieces by the thunder fire in the hands of the forbidden army, and none of them were spared.

The power of firearms was too terrifying, and the heroes did not dare to act rashly for a while.

Shangguan Yunxin laughed and said: "Everyone, some gadgets of the Jiangnan Weichi family, if you are not afraid of death, just break in!"

Everyone regretted it in their hearts, it turned out that the Perak Hall had been deliberately pretending to be a grandson, and they knew that this firearm was so powerful and ferocious, where did they dare to go to the door of the house to provoke, they were really blinded by lard.

The abbot of Jingci Temple didn't expect Shangguan Yunxin to sacrifice such a sharp weapon when he spoke, and then sighed: "Amitabha, Shangguan donor, the martial arts rivers and lakes and the imperial court have always been well water and not river water, why does the imperial court deal with these rivers and lakes so recklessly?"

Shangguan Yunxin glanced at him and said lightly: "Because some people are too presumptuous, the imperial court has to manage it with their own hands." ”

The abbot of Jingci Temple smiled bitterly: "They all came after receiving my invitation letter, what face do you want me to face the world in the future?"

This monk is called Master Zhitong, and his status in Zhejiang is second only to Master Zhiguang of Zhiguan Temple in Tiantai Mountain, and he can be regarded as highly respected.

Shangguan Yunxin felt a little sorry for this old friend, and was about to be relieved, when he heard a cold voice from behind him, and said in a strange manner: "Our family heard that the four major monks are empty, do you care about any reputation!"

As soon as the words fell, I saw six figures floating from the air, looking dressed up, all of them were eunuchs in the palace.

"Father-in-law Yu!" Shangguan Yunxin greeted him with a smile, he didn't dare to offend the slightest bit of this kind of servant, and saying a few words on the official's side on weekdays was much more effective than working hard for more than half a year. What's more, the martial arts of these six people are so good, I'm afraid they are not below him.

"How's it going?" asked the old eunuch, who was called Father-in-law, in a low voice.

"Father-in-law, don't worry, these people have been shocked by me, and I'll tell them what to do later!" Shangguan Yunxin pointed to the blood stains on the ground and said proudly.

Father-in-law Yu nodded, his expression was arrogant, but a flash of fire flashed in his eyes.

"Father-in-law Yu, is that Qiankun secret record really so good, it is actually worth making such a big move?" Shangguan Yunxin was a little puzzled.

The old eunuch said in a deep voice: "Well, this matter must be more snack." It's a pity that Murong Xihua hasn't seen the appearance of the masked man with her own eyes, by the way, there is a chance to find Qiao Feng from the beggar gang to learn more about that person! Let this gang be tighter and don't reveal the news of the masked man!"

"Father-in-law Yu's move is a great good, it can be described as killing two birds with one stone, admire and admire ......," Shangguan Yunxin said with a smile. As more and more warriors surrounded the Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall, he was able to recruit more and more subordinates, and he felt proud when he thought that the strength in his hands had increased greatly.
