Chapter Seventy-Three: The Treasure Conspiracy

The girl named Ling'er was still pulled back to her place by Dongfang Bai, obviously this girl was not convinced, and her cheeks were red and cute.

The ruthless Lu Yun was also quietly persuading this girl, Dongfang Bai sighed, knowing that this little girl was not pampered, but she couldn't see any injustices, he had been wandering the rivers and lakes for many years, and the blood in his heart had long been defeated by reality.

The man at the table saw Dongfang Bai and the others coming in, his eyes changed slightly, one of them made a look, and the rest hurriedly finished their meal and went back to their room.

For these people, Shen Lang was more curious, and secretly released the rakshasa to see them, for these ordinary people, it was overkill to have a ghost to monitor.

After seeing if there was anyone in the store who caught Shen Lang's attention for a long time, after eating a few bites at random, Shen Lang asked Xiao'er to take him to the booked room.

As soon as he returned to the room, Shen Lang arranged a defensive formation in the room, and when he was drinking thyme, Shen Lang found that the wine contained a faint drug.

This kind of drug is not used among mortals, but one that monks often use to confuse demon beasts, and it is for this reason that so many people are so addicted to the thyme here.

Shen Lang smiled and said to himself: "I didn't expect this Longmen Inn to be a black shop, but now it's a good show." ”

Shen Lang sat cross-legged on the bed, communicating with Rakshasa to see what those men in high suits were going to do.

Rakshasa was hidden in the room of this group of men in strong suits, these people were really not as simple as Shen Lang expected, and as soon as they returned to the room, several people began to search around to see if they were being watched by others.

One of the most inconspicuous of the low, men, said, "You two are watching at the door, and if anyone comes, you will be dismissed." ”

Listening to the order of the low man, two of them nodded, standing guard outside the door to prevent anyone from disturbing, the short man continued: "This time we are on the mission of the king, the news reported by Qin Tianjian that this time the treasure is located three hundred miles east of Yuzhou City, this time someone leaked the news, and the king had to announce it to the world, if he can provide clues to the treasure, he will be rewarded with 100,000 silver seals and ten thousand households. ”

After hearing this, the rest of the people were all sarcastic, as if they knew the trickiness in it, and sure enough, the short man sneered and said: "This group of people in the rivers and lakes are selfish, and they don't want to be loyal to the monarch and serve the country, so they know how to compete for fame and fortune, and when the time comes, they are only afraid that they will have their lives and take their lives." ”

One of the young men with unusually smooth skin spoke: "Boss, does the king mean to wipe out those people in the rivers and lakes this time?"

The short man replied with an approving gaze: "Yes, the king has the intention of recruiting friends, the king has been working hard to rule the world since the weak crown ascended the throne, and originally had the strength to annex the state of Wu in one fell swoop, but this group of people in the martial arts always say that there will be misfortune if they move the sword soldiers in vain, and they have prevented the king from raising troops three or four times, this time taking advantage of the news of this treasure, the king is ready to wipe out all the people in the martial arts, and when the time comes, we will send troops to the country of Wu, and we will be able to destroy the country of Wu in one fell swoop." ”

The rest of the men couldn't help but be excited when they heard the news, they have been orphans since they were children, since the king of Yue ascended the throne, the country has adopted countless orphans, and then selected the talented ones to form a secret force to help the king of Yue spy on the enemy and do some shady things, and these people are even more loyal to the king of Yue in their hearts, so there is this action.

One of the baby-faced men spoke, "The boss doesn't know what is in this treasure to make the king so excited." ”

The short man's face changed, and he scolded: "Presumptuous, don't you want to live, Hua Laosan, you dare to inquire into the king's privacy." ”

Listening to the short man's angry reprimand, this person named Hua Laosan immediately knelt down in fright: "Big brother, you also know that the younger brother is just curious, and the younger brother's loyalty to the king can be seen by the sun and the moon." ”

Others also interceded for Hua Laosan, and the short man's face was slightly better, patted Hua Laosan's shoulder and motioned for Hua Laosan to stand up, and said earnestly: "It's not that the eldest brother is strict with you, it's just that there are some things about the king, the less we know, the better, but we have been brothers for so many years, and it is not necessary to sue you, but you have to rot this matter in your heart, and you must not tell others." ”

When Hua Laosan heard that he could know this secret, he was a little excited for a while, patted his chest and promised: "Big brother, don't worry, we have been brothers for so many years, don't you know me." ”

"According to the news of Qin Tianjian this time, the treasure we are looking for is a cave mansion of the predecessors of the immortals, it is said that there is an elixir that can live forever in it, and if the king can take the elixir of immortality at that time, our Yue Kingdom will definitely be able to dominate the world under the leadership of the king. The more the short man spoke, the more excited he became, as if he had seen the scene of King Yue ruling the world.

When the rest of the people heard the news, they thought that their king could dominate the world, and their faces were also full of excitement, and they knelt down and said in unison: "I wish the king a thousand generations to dominate the country." ”

When Shen Lang heard the news, he was stunned at first, and then laughed heartily, just one pill can live forever, this joke is really funny, Shen Lang has seen how many ancient books of jade slips and has never heard of the elixir that can live forever after taking it, even if it is a real elixir, at most, it is just to prolong the life of mortals by two jiazi, it is not that the elixir is not effective, it is really that the mortal physique cannot absorb the essence of it at all.

Shen Lang was noncommittal about this news, how could mortals resist the ** of immortality, especially the king who was eloquent, thinking of the ancestral dragon in his previous life, he didn't know that he was addicted to the fantasy of immortality after dominating the world.

But for the Immortal Cave Mansion mentioned by the dwarf man just now, this Shen Lang is a little interested, except for the so-called elixir, I don't know if this so-called immortal has a secret method that can make people break through, in that case, it is also good to hand it over to his master.

It seems that these people are the so-called guards around the king of Yue, in addition to wanting to obtain treasures, they still want to wipe out the so-called heroes in the rivers and lakes, it seems that the water in this Yue country is still quite deep.

Shen Lang secretly thought, in ancient times, the king of people fell, although there are still kingdoms in the monk world, but the rules are set that these countries cannot be conquered at will, and the reign of the king of people cannot be more than sixty years, and they are not allowed to cultivate immortal law, and there are many emperors who do not love Jiangshang in order to live forever, so they must completely break off the fate of the world, and must not interfere with the rise and fall of the human country.

Thinking of this, Shen Lang had some thoughts in his heart, but he really wanted to explore it well, so he just had nothing to do recently, so he had a good time with you, and continued to monitor these guards with a slight smile.

Sure enough, the short man said: "In addition to our people, the king also excluded the rest of the brocade guards, and when the time comes, after discovering the treasure, we should work together to eliminate those people in the rivers and lakes in one fell swoop." ”

The rest of the people nodded one after another, these things have long been accustomed to them, there are not a few people in the rivers and lakes who have helped King Yue eradicate them over the years, and they have cooperated with the Jinyi Guard, and it is easy to kill those masters with high martial arts, and there is a fierce light in their eyes, just wait for the time to complete the task.

The short man continued: "You also saw it in the hall just now, the white-clothed Divine Sword Dongfang Bai has already come, and he is also carrying the Chilling Heart Sword Lu Yun, these two people are not simple, it seems that this time the Divine Sword Villa will also intervene, and everyone should be careful when the time comes." ”

The Jinyi guards had a whole face, they obviously knew Dongfang Bai and Lu Yun very well, they fought with these two people a lot, but every time they returned with a feather, and these two people would also be their fierce rivals at that time.

The short man also deliberately said: "The child with a monkey in the hall just now, you should also be careful, this person can't even see through him, and I have never heard of such a young master in the Yue Kingdom, I don't know if it was cultivated by those so-called hermit masters." ”

Hearing this, Shen Lang was slightly taken aback, he didn't expect this short man to be so vigilant, he even counted himself in it, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, it seemed that he really wanted to have a good time with Yue Guo this time.

On the other hand, Dongfang Bai and the three of them also returned to their own rooms, and Shen Lang also deliberately released Shura to monitor, and Shen Lang was also very interested in these three people who could make the expressions of these brocade guards change.

Dongfang Bai first spoke: "The young man sitting there just now, the old man can't even see through it, he doesn't know whether he is an enemy or a friend, it seems that this trip to Yuzhou is unpredictable." ”

Ling'er said with a big grin: "I don't think that little brother wants to be a bad person, Uncle Dongfang, you don't have to be suspicious." ”

Dongfang Bai cried and laughed and said: "You little girl, you are causing trouble, Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in the rivers and lakes, the skill of the young man just now is estimated to be above the old man, if he disagrees at that time, the old man can't say for sure." ”

Lu Yun on the side also nodded, and he also felt the pressure on the faint momentum exuded by Shen Lang just now, and the sword in his hand was tighter, which seemed to challenge Shen Lang very much.

Ling'er said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of, Uncle Dongfang, you are a white-clothed divine sword, and Brother Lu, a cold-hearted son who is famous in the rivers and lakes, how can we have something." ”

Hearing Ling'er say this, Dongfang Bai and Lu Yun still showed their arrogance, after all, they were also famous figures in the rivers and lakes, how could they be intimidated by Shen Lang, an unknown person.

Lu Yun also spoke: "The black-clothed people sitting in the corner just now are not simple, looking at their steady and powerful steps, every step seems to be measured, they must also be masters, and after special training, the combined attack technique composed of these people cannot be underestimated." ”

Dongfang Bai's face also became serious, and he agreed with Lu Yun's words: "The old man guesses that these people may be the secret guards among the brocade guards beside King Yue. ”

Hearing this, Ling'er also showed a look of surprise on her face, and said with her small mouth slightly open: "Is it the secret guard of the big villain Yue Wang's side, who specializes in dealing with people in the rivers and lakes?"

Dongfang Bai nodded, and said sternly: "It is rumored that these secret guards are all masters in ten thousand, each of them has hidden stunts, and many famous seniors in the rivers and lakes have fallen into their hands, and a few times Yun'er and I have also been ambushed by them, but fortunately we escaped by luck." ”

Hearing that Lu Yun and Dongfang Bai had also been plotted by these people, Ling'er's face was even more surprised, and she nervously pulled Lu Yun's arm and asked, "Brother Yun, what's going on, why haven't you told me?"

Lu Yun's face was slightly red, and he said with some embarrassment: "I wasn't hurt much at the time, I didn't want you to worry about Ling'er, so I didn't say anything." ”

Ling'er pouted his mouth dissatisfied, Lu Yun hurriedly coaxed Ling'er, Dongfang Bai on the side looked at the two people who showed affection, and quickly said with a straight face: "This operation is more dangerous, Ling'er, you must listen to Uncle Dongfang and your brother Lu Yun, this time that treasure actually involved the secret guard, it seems that King Yue's ambition is not small." ”

Lu Yun continued: "King Yue is also a man of great talent, and he has indeed made the Yue Kingdom peaceful and peaceful all these years, but his ambition is too great, and he always wants to annex the Wu State, doesn't he know the consequences of annexing the Wu State?"

After finishing speaking, Lu Yun also looked helpless, originally he still had some good feelings about this king who could make Yue rich and strong, but over the years, King Yue has always been bent on annexing neighboring countries, and he has never been soft on people in the martial arts, which makes this cold-hearted son who is famous in martial arts very dissatisfied.
