Chapter 69: Dare and Don't Dare
The battle of Tianhe City soon spread throughout Kanzhou, and even the entire Eight Desolations, because at the most, this war had involved more than 1,000 people to participate, involving many forces, and two of them were the forces of the big sects, but the stories behind this all revolved around a person named Shen Ling.
Everyone fixed this war as a contest between the two major forces of the Shen Ling faction and the Taihe sect, just when everyone thought that this Shen Ling would lose all the battles in this war, the Taihe Sect was defeated, and it was hard to believe that the crane of the Taihe Sect actually died in this war, which was a shock to the Taihe Sect and even the entire Kanzhou.
"Shen Ling" is a name that has never been mentioned, but after experiencing this war, it quickly spread throughout Kanzhou, as if overnight, he became a figure that no one knows, no one knows, down to ordinary people, up to the people of the sect, everyone is talking about this strange and familiar name.
In Yunjie Mountain, in the Taihe Sect Hall, an angry roar came out, alarming the entire sect: "Shen Ling! my Beigong Yan wants you to pay for your blood debts and blood," this roar made the entire sect fall into a state of solemnity.
There were many Taihe Sect people gathered in the main hall, people of all identities were there, down to disciples, up to elders, but everyone's expressions were full of grief, all because of a headless corpse in the field.
A man of about sixty or seventy years old, with a square face, a horizontal face, slightly domineering, at this time he looked at the corpse in the field with black lines on his face, his face was bruised, and his fists made a crisp clicking sound, and the roar just now was caused by his anger.
This person is the Taihe Sect Sect Leader Beigong Yan, and the corpse in that field is the second elder of the Taihe Sect, Canghe, who even died at the sect elder level, how can he swallow that evil breath, not to mention that this elder is not someone else, but Canghe, one of the most influential in his Taihe Sect.
However, there were two people kneeling next to the corpse, these two people were none other than Lu Yan and the middle-aged man, the two of them knelt deeply like this, bowing their heads, and they didn't dare to come out.
Beigong Yan raised his eyebrows and said coldly to Lu Yan: "This is all a good thing you have done." ”
An old man with gray hair on the side walked out, glanced at Lu Yan and the others with solemnity, and also shook his head and sighed: "Senior Brother Lu, you are also an elder-level person of my sect, why don't you discuss with me and the sect master before acting, today's death of Senior Brother Cang, you Lu Yan have an unshirkable responsibility." ”
Lu Yan came down and said bitterly: "Lu Yan is guilty, please ask the sect master and the great elder to punish the crime." ”
Beigong Yan sighed: "Everyone is dead, what crime is there to cure," and then with a wave of his hand, several disciples carried Canghe's body out.
Then he said solemnly to Lu Yan and the others: "Get up, let's talk about it, what kind of character is this Shen Ling, even you and Canghe can't fight." ”
Lu Yan's face was sad, and he was still unconvinced: "This Shen Ling is not his Great Cloud Sect to protect him, I, Lu Yan, have already destroyed this person." ”
When the old man heard this, he immediately said majestically: "Use Lingpeng to destroy this person, are you an idiot for me?" and then said: "Let's talk about it, let's make it clear after 1510 in the middle, how did the second junior brother die, and a person with a seven-fold body can still kill people, it's really a hell of a life." ”
Seeing that the Great Elder was already angry, Lu Yan trayed out the whole ins and outs, and when he said this, everyone knew that the real reason for Canghe's beheading was that which of Shen Ling's mothers-in-law made a move, so that Shen Ling got the first opportunity.
After hearing this, the gray-haired old man's eyes were deep, and he said to himself: "Shen Ling, mother-in-law, is still surnamed Shen." ”
Seeing the old man muttering to himself, Beigong Yan didn't know: "The Great Elder has any suspicions?"
The old man with the blue hair shook his head, looked at Beigong Yan and said, "This Shen Ling and his mother-in-law are always a little strange, why should we deal with it carefully in the future, but Senior Brother Cang's revenge must be avenged." ”
Beigong Yan also nodded and said: "What the Great Elder said is extremely true, a Shen Ling wants to shake my Taihe Sect, that is a big joke, even if he has the protection of the Great Cloud Sect, I will break him into ten thousand pieces." ”
When he said this, no one in the hall made a sound, and fell into silence, and only the anger on everyone's faces was even more vicious, and the entire Taihe Sect was wrapped in a kind of hatred.
...
In the royal house of Kanzhou Xundu, the old man in the golden robe sat on the top of the main hall, flipping through various chapters, I don't know how long it took, only to hear a rush of footsteps, only to see the eunuch walk to the main hall, bowed down and said: "Your Majesty, Ji Guoshi asks to see." ”。
When the golden-robed old man heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Please come in quickly." ”
The eunuch replied, "Yes," and retreated.
The golden-robed old man couldn't help but cough again, and said to himself: "It's just the right time to come." ”
After a while, an old man in gray slowly walked to the main hall, attached himself to the old man in the golden robe, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty!"
As soon as the words fell, the golden-robed old man hurriedly said: "Oh! The national teacher should not be more polite, there are no outsiders here, hurry up and talk about Tianhe City." ”
Ji Guoshi nodded and said, "The matter of Tianhe City has been settled, but the Gu family and the Long family no longer exist. ”
"This is all done by Shen Ling?" the golden-robed old man's eyes flashed with questions.
Ji Guoshi nodded and said, "That's good," and then said, "Now it's all in the limelight outside this Shen Ling." ”
"Well, I also feel this, this Xun Du is now all rumors about him," the golden-robed old man coughed lightly and said, "Go on." ”
Ji Guoshi greeted him: "Yes", and then told the story of the war and the impact of the war one by one.
After listening to Ji Guoshi's speech, the golden-robed old man sighed: "It seems that in the future, this son must be a character," and then asked Ji Guoshi: "What do you think?"
Ji Guoshi's face was moved: "Your Majesty, in my opinion, this son is already a character, this time under his leadership, not only eradicated the Gu and Long families, but also stabbed the forces of Zeng, Zuo and Taihezong, what I didn't expect was that the crane actually died under his sword, although it was his mother-in-law who seriously injured him first, but all showed this person's decisiveness." ”
Hearing this clear mouth, the old man in the golden robe also nodded slightly: "Well, yes, the destruction of the Gu and Long families is equivalent to cutting off the arms of the Zeng and Zuo families, and beheading the crane also shook his Taihe Sect, and it is really a breath of relief for my royal family." ”
After finishing speaking, the golden-robed old man suddenly thought of something again, and asked, "His mother-in-law's injury won't be a big problem, right? This person is a person who can seriously injure Canghe, and the emperor doesn't want her to have an accident." ”
Ji Guoshi nodded slightly, "Your Majesty, rest assured, this person should be fine," and then said: "But next, they should be going to the Great Cloud Sect, I don't know what kind of turmoil will be stirred up when they come to Xundu and Lingcheng." ”
The golden-robed old man sighed: "Yes," and then looked at the national teacher: "Being able to lead everyone to resist the strength of Taihezong as a slave is also something that has never happened so far, but it appeared in a young man surnamed Shen, this is a coincidence, or is there another arrangement in the dark." ”
Seeing the old man in the golden robe, Ji Guoshi groaned and said, "Did Your Majesty also think of the person you are looking for with the secret power above?" ”
The golden-robed old man said calmly: "Yes, the national teacher thinks so?"
After hesitating for a moment, Ji Guoshi said slowly: "If he is really the person he is looking for above, then my entire royal family cannot afford to offend, and Your Majesty should also know about the dark power above, it depends on whether Your Majesty dares to bet on this." ”
A hint of gloom flashed in the eyes of the golden-robed old man, and then he laughed: "Dare or not, isn't the national teacher gambling now?" It's just that the national teacher is betting on this person, or on something." ”
When he said the last sentence, Ji Guoshi's body was stunned, and then he bowed to the golden-robed old man and said: "Ji doesn't dare, Ji Mou, as a national teacher of Xunguo, is only dedicated to planning for the royal family, and has never thought of anything, and I hope Your Majesty will understand." ”
Seeing that the national teacher was like this, the old man in the golden robe eased his solemnity, and said calmly: "It's the national teacher who is too worried, you are the national teacher of my Daxun country, this emperor doesn't believe you, who else can he believe." ”
Then he said: "Okay, I see that the national teacher has also worked hard, let's stop here today, then Shen Ling's matter is still planned by the national teacher, and if there is anything, report it directly." ”
Ji Guoshi greeted him: "Yes," and then he respectfully retreated, walked out of the main hall, and as soon as he left the palace gate, he exhaled lightly, then looked around, and left quickly.
On the top of the main hall, after Ji Guoshi left, the old man in the golden robe flashed his eyes, and then shouted: "Come out, old thing,"
After this, the chief eunuch hurriedly came from the back and said respectfully, "Your Majesty has any orders?"
The golden-robed old man snorted: "Okay, don't pretend anymore," and then said: "Can you hear the heartfelt words of the national teacher just now, can you tell me? ”
After the eunuch hesitated for a moment, he still said respectfully: "Your Majesty, although the old slave never asks about political affairs, but, but the old slave has heard the sincerity of the national teacher, he is the national teacher of the Daxun country, and it is the country of His Majesty..."
"Okay, okay, the emperor knows": the golden-robed old man shook off a sentence angrily, and then said: "I know that you old thing can't say one, two, three, retreat." ”
Seeing that the old man in the golden robe was already angry, the eunuch didn't dare to say more, so he had to retreat.
There was silence again in the hall, except for the occasional cough.
