Great Blue Night Watchman

Lin Su's heart skipped a beat, and he strode out of the main hall. After a few steps, his official uniform appeared out of thin air. Turning a corner, he saw Xie Dong, who was sitting in the side hall.

Lin Su bowed deeply: "Meet the Grand Secretary."

Xie Dong stood up: "You are already a marquis, there is no need to do this!"

"The title of marquis is also the support of the Grand Secretary!" Lin Su said.

Xie Dong said: "The title of Marquis Lin is based on the great achievements of Marquis Lin Xihe. Your Majesty conferred the title according to the laws of the Immortal Dynasty. Why do you need to rely on others? Marquis Lin, find a quiet place, I have something to discuss with you."

"Grand Secretary, please!"

The study room was also the first time for Lin Su to enter.

Entering the study room, Lin Su waved his hand lightly, and the housekeeper, who was walking step by step, and two maids bowed and retreated at the same time.

Lin Su personally held the pot and poured tea for Xie Dong.

Xie Dong took the teacup and sipped it gently: "At the Magpie Bridge Meeting, Lord Lin made another move, severely defeated the provocation of the Ziqi Wen Dynasty, and promoted the power of our dynasty. Your Majesty has already known about it and is very pleased."

"How dare I not repay the boundless grace of your Majesty?" Lin Su raised his fist and saluted His Majesty.

"The king favors the minister, and the minister repays the king's grace. This has been the case since ancient times and in all dynasties!" Xie Dong said: "Today is approaching September. Your Majesty has prepared the Heavenly Dao Spirit Pearl. Lord Lin will be able to get it in three months, so there is no need to worry."

The Heavenly Dao Spirit Pearl is special because of the Heavenly Tears Curse.

If Lin Su's Heavenly Tears are not solved, one spirit pearl every year will be his chance to prolong his life.

This is His Majesty's promise to him.

This year's Heavenly Dao Spirit Pearl is stable.

Lin Su sighed: "Your Majesty's favor to me, how can I say it?"

Xie Dong said: "When Lord Lin was in the Samsara Sect, Your Majesty was watching the stars in the Sparrow Tower. I am also terrified by your words. Your Majesty said that you have been on the throne for more than 20 years and you love talents and recruit talents. However, under the special situation, there are only two people around you, one is me and the other is Lord Lin!"

Lin Su stood up suddenly and thanked the grace of heaven again: "Your Majesty, I am terrified!"

"Sit down!" Xie Dong said: "Your Majesty, although I dare not accept your words, I must say that there are still too few talents around your Majesty, so that no one can be used for some key things."

Lin Su said: "I wonder what kind of knot your majesty has not been resolved?"

"For example... the skylight!" Xie Dong raised his finger gently and pointed directly at the sky.

Lin Su's teacup has been brought to his lips and stopped there.

Xie Dong's eyes slowly moved over: "How much do you know about Tianchuang?"

Lin Su shook his head gently: "I really don't know."

Xie Dong smiled gently: "The so-called Tianchuang is just a figurative statement. If the imperial power is the sky, then Tianchuang is the person who jumps out of the rules. In the East Region of this world, there are six people who are as good as the elephant, the sword master Jian San, the leader of the True Phoenix clan Feng Changsheng, the leader of the Heavenly Clan Tianjun, the leader of Liangshan Lu Huida, the Supreme Master of Lotus Peak Duan You, and the Death Valley Siqi, which is the Tianchuang!"

Lin Su took a sip of tea: "So that's it, thank you for clearing up the doubts."

Xie Dong also took a sip of tea, and his voice came leisurely: "Tianchuang, what do you think?"

This is probably the chief imperial teacher who is deeply trusted by His Majesty, who formally asked Lin Su for advice on a sensitive matter.

Lin Su said without hesitation: "There is a saying in the secular world that there is no order without rules. Rules should guarantee the order of all living beings. Going beyond the rules and opening up the skylight is a loss of control for the imperial power; a loss of measure for the law; and a loss of justice for the people. It should never exist!"

Xie Dong smiled: "Lord Lin is really frank about this matter!"

"As an official appointed by the court, how dare I be vague in the face of major events of the dynasty? Naturally, I will say what I think."

"It shouldn't exist! It shouldn't exist! Everyone knows that this situation shouldn't exist! But it just exists..." Xie Dong exhaled softly: "Is there a solution?"

Lin Su raised his eyes slowly: "Since you have mentioned this, you must have understood it. I am all ears..."

Xie Dong said: "In the face of the Sky Window, the consensus formed by the court for many years is to show favor, and it has always been so. Objectively speaking, the effect is still controllable so far. However, your majesty and I are both worried. There are two things we are worried about. First, showing too much favor will damage the law, and relying on favor will lead to arrogance, which will cause endless troubles. Second, there are only six Sky Windows at present, but looking to the future, it is absolutely impossible to have only six. Once the number increases, the policy of showing favor will not be sustainable."

The first one is needless to say.

Showing too much favor will damage the law, and those Sky Window Walkers are all arrogant and use various methods to ask for greater benefits from the Immortal Dynasty. As long as one person wins the benefits, the rest of the Sky Window Walkers will follow suit. In this way, the Sky Window Walkers and the sects they belong to will gradually become a place outside the law. This is how the True Phoenix Clan gradually became a court within the court.

This is how Xihe lost the law.

The second one is even more terrifying.

Lin Su just found out that this world has a ceiling.

The Zhixiang realm is the peak.

When you reach Zhixiang, you are at the Skylight.

At this level, there is no way to go up. If you dare to take another half step up, you will be "walking on the chasm of nature", which is courting death.

Therefore, people at this level cannot go up.

They stopped, but what about the people below? They will not stop. On the contrary, when they see the various privileges enjoyed by Skylight Walkers, they will be more passionate to work harder. As long as they reach this level, they will also be Skylight Walkers who jump out of the rules.

Under the stimulation of this huge temptation, the team of Skylight Walkers is constantly expanding.

Just like Bai Yujing back then, at the level of Xiang, he directly killed 374 people. What a terrifying number?

If the timeline is extended, the Immortal Dynasty of the Eastern Region, thousands of Immortal Sects, countless Dharma doors, and opportunities that happen every day will increase by one Xiang Realm every ten years, and there will be ten in a hundred years. After a thousand years, the Immortal Realm of the Eastern Region will North Korea is still full of hills.

Therefore, the skylight must not be opened like this.

If left unchecked, sooner or later it will become a serious problem for the Immortal Dynasty.

This is a problem that almost all immortal dynasties and almost all kings must face.

And it is a difficult question that I have pondered over and over again throughout my life.

Lin Su nodded lightly: "The lower official also heard that your Excellency did not agree with the previous method of showing kindness. So, what is your opinion?"

Xie Dong's eyes flashed: "The new method I set up is internal friction!"

"Internal friction?" Lin Su said: "It means to create some opposition for these Skylight Walkers and let them consume each other's strength, right?"

Xie Dong smiled: "Marquis Lin really understands! The True Phoenix Clan and the Sword Sect are both in the Southern Wilderness. They have been fighting for territory and resources for thousands of years, and their children have been fighting each other. There is already a gap..."

The moment he opened his mouth, it was an incredible plan.

The path he took was to provoke a fight between the Skylight Walkers and make them dog eat dog.

What kind of bite?

The True Phoenix Clan and the Jian Sect are paired up. Both parties are the top forces in the Southern Wilderness. Over the years, disputes have existed. Even the top leaders of the two parties, Feng Changsheng and Jian San, didn't have a bet? Isn't the thing about gambling also about fighting for it? As skylight walkers, they were all hostile, and it was not unusual for the people under their command to show any kind of stupidity.

If the True Phoenix Clan and the Sword Sect are just some conflicts derived from the competition for resources, Lotus Peak and Death Valley are directly blood feuds.

Death Valley's Death Seven was once killed by the Great Moon Phase Technique because his only disciple, Death Valley's hope, Death Eighteen, was angry and fought back, razing thousands of miles of mountains and rivers to the ground with one slap. Sorry, that mountain peak belongs to Lotus Peak. The territory, the tens of millions of disciples in the mountain peak, died because of the slap of Death!

And what about Liangshan and the Tian Clan?

The hatred formed is even more mysterious...

It's because of the position.

Over the years, Liangshan stood behind the former prince, and Tian Clan stood behind the second prince. They were both the most powerful forces behind these two princes. Based on the idea of ​​working hard for their respective masters, the two sides had already fought to a bloody head.

The original skylight plan was still missing a link.

This link is Samsara Sect Li Samsara.

Compared with the six major forces, Li Samsara is in a state of dissociation.

No hatred or kinship.

Such people are the most difficult to deal with.

Xie Dong (his Majesty, to be precise) wanted to provoke a battle between the six major forces, and he was most afraid of having a huge monster outside the chessboard, but now the problem is solved.

Lin Su entered the Reincarnation Sect, and with an extremely decisive gesture, he drove Li Reincarnation directly into the Reincarnation Path.

There is no one outside the chessboard.

The remaining six are planned.

Therefore, the skylight plan led by Xie Dong, or the "dog eat dog" plan, can be implemented - six people can just be divided into three groups to fight to death!

Xie Dong talked about this taboo topic without restraint.

Even though Lin Su had experienced hundreds of battles and had nerves as strong as steel, he was still a little frightened.

Xie Dong is not an ordinary person.

He is the most experienced hunter.

He is the most understanding owner of "Heart Pupil".

He is His Majesty's most trusted person.

He is also the most resourceful person.

He didn't need to be so abnormal and frank, but today, he was not as frank as an old fox.

For what purpose?

There are probably two intentions.

First, test Lin Su's loyalty to His Majesty.

Second, test Lin Su's IQ.

Why can this incident test Lin Su's loyalty to His Majesty? Because everyone has basically formed a consensus that Lin Su has an unclear and unclear relationship with the True Phoenix Clan. Some people even believe that he is a direct disciple of the True Phoenix Clan, and is even very likely to be a disciple of Feng Changsheng.

Now, Xie Dong will reveal all his plans against the True Phoenix Clan, and it will be up to you, Lin Su, to decide.

In the past, the deeper Lin Su's connection with the True Phoenix Clan, the more His Majesty valued him. But at a higher level, this connection will also be a shackles, because when it comes to the Skylight Project, Lin Su needs to be with Feng Changsheng. Make a new choice with His Majesty.

As for testing IQ, that's not mentioned.

The Skylight Plan was thrown out by Xie Dong to Lin Su, and the subtext was actually revealed.

He is the person who initiated the plan, and if nothing unexpected happens, Lin Su will be the executor.

As an executor, if you don't even understand the meaning of the plan, why are you still executing it?

Therefore, this old fox is frank today.

After saying everything, the old fox slowly showed a smile: "This is the 'Skylight Project' designed by me. What do you think, Marquis Lin?"

Lin Su's brows slowly furrowed: "Your Excellency's ingenious plan is truly unbelievable, but..."

"But what? But it doesn't matter."

Lin Su slowly raised his head: "However, this move has two major drawbacks. I don't know if you have considered it thoroughly."

"Oh? What are the two major disadvantages?"

"First, behind Skylight Walker are six super powers. Although they themselves are people who have jumped outside the rules, it is undeniable that these six powers can still be regarded as the powers of the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty. If this is the case The two are facing each other and are at war with each other. As a result, the strength of the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty will be reduced. If the foreign dynasty takes advantage of this opportunity and attacks, what will happen to our dynasty? "

Lin Su raised this question, which was quite pointed.

His standing position actually seemed to be higher than Xie Dong's at this moment.

Because Xie Dong focused on closing the six skylights to prevent chaos within the Eastern Region Immortal Dynasty.

But Lin Su focused on the power of the entire Immortal Dynasty and focused on foreign enemies.

Xie Dong gently closed his eyes: "Marquis Lin can put the great cause of the Immortal Dynasty first and focus on foreign enemies, which is worthy of Your Majesty's great love. However, Marquis Lin should also know a folk proverb: A hatchet that can be held can be used to chop. A sharp weapon like firewood, a hatchet that cannot be held, the sharper it is, the more it hurts oneself. Everything in this world is nothing more than a trade-off. You can only choose the lesser of two evils. "

What he means is very clear...

Whether these six major forces are part of the Immortal Dynasty's strength depends on a premise.

Are you in control.

You are in control, they are your power.

You have no control over them, they are not your power, they are just beasts beside your bed.

Lin Su shook his head gently: "Let's put this matter aside for now, and I'll talk about the second issue later."

"Okay, Marquis Lin, please speak!" Xie Dong pointed his thumbs down, held up the teacup, and raised it slightly.

This move is to inquire.

It means that at this moment, he and Lin Su were discussing things at the same table, ignoring their status and inferiority.

Lin Sudao: "Secondly, the process of the two-to-two confrontation strategy designed by your Excellency is completely uncontrollable. Even if we have the intention to promote it, the other party is not stupid. As long as someone stands up and breaks through this veil, the other party will They will definitely not fall into the trap, and they will even share the same hatred and truly form a Skylight Alliance."

Xie Dong smiled: "Of course I know that the biggest drawback of this plan is this. It was originally a deadlock. However, by learning from Lin Hou's clever method of handling the chaos in Xihe, there are also some ideas... If the dynasty joins one of the three parties, I sincerely help this party succeed, but so what?”

Lin Su's heart was slightly shaken.

Old fox.

This is the real old fox.

The dynasty instigated six forces to oppose each other. This was originally a conspiracy.

As long as the conspiracy is exposed, it will arouse the vigilance of others, and the forces from the six parties will hold back if they want to fight, so as to avoid falling into the trap of the Immortal Dynasty.

However, if this move is taken, the conspiracy will immediately turn into a conspiracy.

Yangmou is not afraid of being exposed.

The Immortal Dynasty sincerely supports three of the six forces and completes the suppression of the remaining three forces.

Do you think the three parties being helped will be willing?

Of course they do!

They got the full help of the Immortal Dynasty out of thin air, tortured their old rival to death, and finally annexed this old rival's territory and resources. As long as they were not mentally ill, they would agree.

In this way, the six super powers were subtracted in the blink of an eye and became three major powers.

Half of the six skylights are closed, which is also a skylight plan.

Moreover, the remaining three skylights got inspiration from this incident and relied on the dynasty to survive. Maybe these three families will compete with the dynasty in the future.

The situation is so mysterious.

It is quite similar to the chaos in Xihe.

Xihe, thirty-six alien races...

At that time, the Immortal Dynasty was also afraid of losing control of the situation. What did Lin Su do?

It seems that he accidentally made a mistake and revealed the strategic plan of "The Immortal Emperor will destroy the eight tribes and then distribute the resources of the eight tribes to the remaining tribes." Based on their own interests, each tribe sat back and watched him destroy the Earth and Wing tribes. This sit-and-see, later I thought He couldn't stand up even if he stood up, and he fell deeper and deeper into the deception of his hard and soft hands.

Lin Su stood up and bowed deeply: "Your Excellency's wonderful idea, I admire you very much."

A smile appeared on Xie Dong's face, and he gestured for him to sit down with a slight tap of his hand: "Lin Hou's strategy is to see real power in impossible places. This plan is also inspired by you."

"Don't dare!" Lin Su sat down again.

Xie Dong said: "Your Majesty intends for you to implement this plan."

The true purpose came out.

Lin Sudao: "I believe that Your Majesty values ​​it, and I thank you for your trust, but I don't know the choices between these three parties. Can Your Majesty make up your mind?"

Six major forces, three against three.

Immortal Dynasty will help three of them, and it is sincere help.

Then, the three selected companies will take off where they are, while the other three companies will fall into disaster.

It can be said that a choice made by the Immortal Dynasty will directly determine the final ownership of three superpowers that have been inherited for thousands of years. This choice has an unusual weight.

If the Six Skylight Walkers were nearby right now, they would probably sweat on their backs.

Xie Dong shook his head gently: "Choice is also a university question. Your Majesty has not finally made up his mind. I don't know, Marquis Lin, what advice can I give to Your Majesty?"

The ball was kicked to Lin Su's feet again.

Lin Su held up the tea cup and pondered...

Xie Dong slightly closed his eyes and sipped tea. This was his habit, and it was probably a habit he was forced out of.

He has a heart, and usually will not take the initiative to look at people, otherwise, it would be a very rude behavior.

However, Lin Su's every move was under his control.

Lin Su slowly raised his head: "I believe that this matter is of great importance and cannot be decided casually. We might as well... we might as well test them."

"Oh? How to test the method?"

"Introduce a new enemy, test the reactions of the six parties, and then make a decision."

"What kind of enemy?"

"The foreign Qinglian Sect and Wujian Sect!" Lin Su said: "If this Tianchuang walker and the sect he belongs to kill the Qinglian Sect and Wujian Sect, then they deserve the help of the Immortal Dynasty. If they are ambiguous on this major issue, then it is not a pity to destroy them!"

Xie Dong's eyes lit up and he stood up suddenly: "Lin Hou, this cup of tea should be toasted to you by me!"

"I dare not!" Lin Su also stood up.

"Testing with a foreign sect is not only a clever trick, but can even be said to be the best way. I will report this to His Majesty, and His Majesty will definitely agree!" Xie Dong said, "And the executor is still you!"

Lin Su bowed: "It is my duty to share the worries of His Majesty and the adults!"

Xie Dong pushed open the door of the study and took a look at the Marquis' Mansion outside: "If there is anything missing in the mansion, let the housekeeper go directly to my mansion to tell me."

"Thank you, sir!"

"Goodbye!"

"Farewell, sir!"

Xie Dong left the Marquis' Mansion.

Lin Su stood in the courtyard and bowed to see him off. He slowly raised his head until the door closed.

Clouds floated in the sky.

The sweet-scented osmanthus was fragrant in the courtyard.

The weather after the Mid-Autumn Festival is getting cooler day by day...

Unconsciously, it has been a year since I entered the fairyland world.

There are only two years left before the fatal time of the Wuxin Great Tribulation.

Two years, how short is it?

Flowers bloom and fade twice, the moon is full twice, a cultivator sits in meditation, and the old man of time flicks his fingers...

In the unintentional catastrophe, the saints of the Great Cang Realm are probably thinking about one question every day, what will the "one who escaped" do.

They will definitely not find the answer.

Because from their perspective, they can't think of any solution.

This catastrophe is the collapse of the way of heaven, and the fruit of the way of heaven is what everyone dreams of, even Wanxiang, Zhenxiang, and even Tianchuang Xingzhe.

The Great Cang Realm cannot stop it at all.

Can Lin Su stop it?

He had only two options...

First, his cultivation was superior to everyone else's. He could guard the Heartless Sea with his own strength. When the catastrophe came, he would kill gods and Buddhas, and exchange time for space, waiting for the rebirth of the universe after the destruction of the Great Cang Realm. As long as he could give the Great Cang Realm time to be reborn, even if the Great Cang Realm would have a hard time in the endless years of the loss of the Heavenly Dao, it would eventually survive and have a chance of nirvana rebirth, because this was the law of the universe, because the Seven Laws of the Heavenly Dao originally had the laws of destruction, chaos and life. Just like the sword he created: Chaos Lotus.

However, this method was not feasible.

It was not until this moment that Lin Su was truly convinced that this method was not feasible.

Why?

Because he could not be superior to everyone else.

The time was too short, which was the second reason.

There were also rules of the Heavenly Dao!

This Heavenly Dao also had rules, and there was a "micro-stepping chasm" that capped the upper limit of practitioners.

Lin Su has great abilities. No matter how long he has to live or how relaxed his environment is, he can only reach the level of Supreme Elephant at best. Even if he becomes Supreme Elephant, he is only one of the hundreds of Supreme Elephants in this world!

Can he stop the whole world by himself?

Then, there is only one second way...

Take advantage of the situation!

Contact enough people and powerful enough forces, divide them into two camps, and lay a net in the Heartless Sea!

Taking advantage of the situation is also difficult, but there is always a way to think about it. Lin Su has been running on this road.

Entering the Immortal Realm, his foundation has grown from nothing to something, and it has already reached a certain scale...

Baiyujing!

Samsara Sect!

Immortal Dynasty!

True Phoenix Clan...

Any one of these forces is so huge that it is suffocating. However, compared with the entire Immortal Realm, even if all these forces are used by him, they are just an ant.

What's more terrible is that he can't control them all.

At present, the only sect that can be effectively controlled is the Samsara Sect, which is still due to the "action" of the Haining West Courtyard.

But aren't things always developing and improving?

Xie Dong's visit today is to give him a step up to the ladder.

The Skylight Project is really a good plan.

Whether it can really break through the clear sky above His Majesty's head is not to mention, the key is to give Lin Su the opportunity to make a move on the chessboard. (End of this chapter)
