Chapter Fifty-Six: Attacking the Heart
In the morning light, a goshawk suddenly retracted its wings in the air and fell down like a meteorite, but at a certain height it suddenly spread its wings again, and glided at an astonishing speed, almost clinging to some yellow eaves ridges, and swept into the depths of the palace of Changling.
It is rare for a goshawk to fly in such a thrilling way in nature, and the Great Qin Imperial Palace is also difficult for birds to cross, and the cultivators who guard the imperial palace will not let the birds fly in the palace wantonly.
However, the feathers of this goshawk are a little vermilion, which is not a normal color that nature would have.
All the cultivators in the Great Qin Imperial Palace also knew that this goshawk came from the emperor's side attendants.
In the cabinet, the four cabinet elders waited with some excitement and anxiety.
It has been three days since the end of the Lushan Alliance, and in the past three days, there has been a steady stream of military intelligence reports related to the Lushan Alliance sent to the palace, plus Mo Shoucheng and Pan Ruoye have returned to the palace, as the cabinet elders, the status of the cabinet is second only to the two ministers, they already know the glorious victory of the Great Qin Dynasty in the Lushan Alliance.
But at this moment, the vast majority of people in Changling City did not know the news, and they were still waiting for the news of the Lushan Alliance.
However, when and in what terms this news will be announced must be decided by the Holy Will.
What will Changling look like after such news is announced?
And they now know that Li Xiang followed the saint to Lushan, and the queen and Yan Xiang went to Yangshan County, and they should be on their way back to Changling at this time, in a sense, Changling at this time is indeed an empty city.
The excitement and uneasy wait finally paid off, and shortly after the goshawk swept into the palace, a ceremonial officer appeared in front of them with a bright yellow silk scroll.
The four elders began to write hard.
One after another, orders kept coming out of the palace.
The sound of singing promises continued to sound in the deep palace.
Pieces of cries and cheers of great surprise rang out, and Changling began to boil.
With the continuous announcement of shocking news, Changling's long-standing depression was swept away.
The farmer's hoe smashed his toes, the cook's kitchen knife cut his fingers, and the porter on the gangplank fell into the icy water between the boats...... Almost all the people of Changling were distracted. Almost all the people of Changling put down their work and began to flock to the streets and alleys, shouting long live.
Yangshan County had been taken back by the powerful Great Qin army.
Not only Yangshan County, but even the Wushan and Lushan areas where Qin and Chu were handed over also belonged to Daqin.
This is a real national jubilation of 10,000 empty alleys.
Even the gamblers who lost red-eyed in the underground casino in Changling walked out of the dark gambling house, and when they saw the light of day again, their eyes stinged and tears flowed at the same time, they heard the news in their ears, and their minds became slightly sober while being excited, thinking of what they had lost in the casino these days. When they did something, the gamblers began to cry again.
The underground gambling houses have also become uninhabited and quiet.
In a quiet room deep in one of the underground gambling houses, Zhao Si, who was still wearing men's clothes, quietly listened to the sound of the mountain cry coming into her ears, and listened to the cries of gamblers in the streets and alleys outside, she couldn't help but think of her master, who opened up the Zhao Sword Furnace with the power of one person, and made the Great Qin army unable to enter the city with the power of one person.
At this time, she felt a little helpless.
......
Even during the Chinese New Year, there has never been such a cheer and a huge sound of long live the mountains, and perhaps there has never been such a huge shout in the history of the Great Qin Dynasty.
The sound that echoed violently over and over again shook off a lot of eaves dust. It has entered many extremely secluded places, and even the streets and alleys and the river in the Wei River have trembled slightly.
In one of the innermost cells of Changling's most heavily guarded Dashui Prison, some swarthy chains firmly locked a person who did not look like a human at all.
Black, glowing with a strange silvery glow, flooded his chest. The swarthy chains were like aquatic plants growing in the water, shuttling through the water around his body, without even making any real contact with his body.
However, the dark chains themselves were like powerful runes, firmly locking this space. The powerful force has even changed the nature of the water in this part of the water.
The water became unusually cold, cold deep into the bone marrow.
His hair was tangled together like a worn-out rag that had not been washed for years. Covering most of his body, he drooped into the water below, and his occasionally exposed skin was covered with various ringworms, and there was no flesh in sight, as if there were dry bones underneath the skin.
Such an appearance is no longer a human being at all, but he gives people the feeling that he is a person, because his breath is a person.
Some people, no matter what they look like, even if their facial features are blurred, just a temperament will make everyone think that they are more like people than most people in the world.
"I don't understand what the hell are you waiting for?"
Shen Xuan stood on a stepping stone by the water, looked at the stone under his feet with calm eyelids, and said slowly: "Have you ever been satisfied with the result today?"
No news had reached the cell, and Shen Xuan hadn't mentioned anything about the Lushan Alliance to the man, but he knew that just a few sounds and vibrations would make him know what was going on.
Because this person is recognized as the first military division in the world, and recognized as the smartest person.
He is a forest boiled wine.
"Come closer, and I'll tell you if I'm satisfied today. ”
A joking voice sounded from the water and reached Shen Xuan's ears.
Shen Xuan's brows jumped slightly, he raised his head slightly and glanced at the person in the water, but he didn't take a step forward from the stepping stone.
"I didn't even dare to take a step forward, I was worried that I had fallen for some scheme, and I wanted to use this opportunity to mess with my mind. The water no longer looks like a human at all, just like a messy aquatic plant growing in the water, but it gives any feeling that he is a proud person, Lin Zhujiu laughed: "Don't you think this is a ridiculous thing?"
Shen Xuan was silent for a moment and said, "It's ridiculous, but I'm on the stone, but you're in the water." ”
Lin Zhuojiu said with a smile: "This time, that time, maybe you will be immersed in water one day, and I will watch you from above." ”
Shen Xuan squinted at him and said, "Is this possible?"
Lin Zhuanjiu nodded seriously and said, "It should be soon." ”
Shen Xuan's pupils shrank, and he was silent for a while.
"There has never been only prisoners who have been intimidated by prison officers, but I have never heard of prison officers being intimidated by prisoners. Lin Zhuojiu laughed again, "But I'm in a good mood today, so I can tell you something." ”
Shen Xuan looked at Lin Zhujiu with an ugly face, he had been in the Da Floating Water Prison for so many years, and he naturally knew Lin Zhujiu very well, of course he would not think that Lin Zhujiu would tell him anything useful.
However, Lin Zhujiu said, "The Liling Monarch's Mansion is over. ”
Shen Xuan's breathing suddenly stopped, and a strange light flame instantly shot out of his eyes.
"If it is too late to send troops to protect the Liling Monarch's Mansion now, otherwise, the Liling Monarch's Mansion will completely disappear in Changling today. Lin Zhujiu then said slowly: "No matter what victory Yuan Wu won in Lushan, but Chu Proton Mansion can't be destroyed if it is destroyed, this just made an alliance, so it is natural to give face to the three dynasties." ”
Shen Xuan's eyes narrowed into a slit, and he said coldly, "Who will destroy the Liling Monarch's Mansion at this time?"
Lin Zhujiu moved slightly, glanced at Shen Xuan, and said: "The significance of Yangshan County to the vast majority of people in Changling is not only humiliation, but also bitter hatred, you should not forget that most of the Great Qin soldiers who died in that battle were from Changling and Guanzhong. ”
"Victory brings venting. ”
After a pause, Lin Zhuojiu continued softly as a mockery: "When you feel that you may not be as strong as your opponent, even if you vent, you will have some control, but when you feel that your opponent has been defeated, this kind of venting will often get out of control. ”
Shen Xuan thought about these words, and his vest became more and more cold, but he still shook his head, "It's not my duty. ”
"How is it irrelevant?"
Lin Zhujiu's voice was full of banter: "You were led astray by me from the beginning... You are only taken by me, I heard me say that the Liling Monarch's Mansion will be destroyed, you never thought that I had been imprisoned here before the Liling Monarch's Mansion, I may not know that there is a Chu Proton, how can I know that there is a Liling Monarch's Mansion?"
Shen Xuan's body shook violently, and his face suddenly turned pale.
Except for a few people over the years, no one has been able to see Lin Zhuanjiu at all, and when those people were present, he was almost all present, and it was impossible to mention the matter of Lilingjun.
How was he able to know?
"I can read minds. ”
As soon as the sound of water sounded, Lin Zhuanjiu raised his head, and his tangled hair brought up wisps of splashes, "I can see what is hidden in his heart from people's eyes, and the same is true for you, so this is the secret of my invincibility in the past, anticipating the enemy's opportunities, and knowing what people think." ”
Shin Hyun was in a huge shock.
But after a few breaths, he became angry.
"How can there be any mind-reading in the world!"
"You're trying to attack the heart!"
"Do you think I'm going to be influenced by your words?"
His angry voice echoed through the water prison.
Lin Zhujiu just looked at him, smiled slightly, and said, "Mind reading naturally doesn't exist, but do you think you can have a good death?
As usual, Shen Xuan's heart once again gave birth to inexplicable fear.
Some of Lin Cook's words are absurd, but sometimes he just admits absurdity, but the following words often pierce people's hearts like cold needles.
The most important thing is that in the past many years, many of the things Lin Zhujiu has said have become facts.
Shen Xuan, as usual, said no more words and resolutely turned around and left the cell.
(There is too much time to think, so it takes four hours to write a chapter, and it takes less than two hours to write, so sorry for the late update.) (To be continued......)
