Pawn Crossing the River

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu continued to move forward. Zhang Yuelu said: "If my prediction is correct, Yao Suyi and Li Changge have already started fighting at this time."

Qi Xuansu was not very optimistic about Yao Pei and asked, "If Yao Suyi loses, will Li Changge really dare to kill someone?"

Zhang Yuelu said: "You underestimate the courage of the Li family. Why don't they dare?"

Qi Xuansu said: "What I'm talking about is how should the Li family clean up the mess after the incident? Or, in other words, how to give a reasonable explanation?"

"Private fight." Zhang Yuelu was very sure, "This is the fundamental reason why Li Changge ended up in person. The premise of a private fight is that both parties are willing. How to lure Yao Pei to agree to it? Of course he used himself as bait. Li Changge wanted to kill Yao Pei, could it be that Yao Pei Pei doesn't want to kill Li Changge? Obviously, these two people think that without the support of the Zhang family, I am just a make-up, and they are not afraid that I will benefit, so as long as the other party is eliminated, they dare not say that the overall situation is decided and the advantage is real. ”

Qi Xuansu sighed: "What about the mission?"

Zhang Yuelu said: "No matter who survives, it is not considered as abdication of public affairs for personal reasons. Yao Pei survived, she is the "little finger", and she was originally going to hold Li Changge back. It can be said that this is an expedient and reasonable measure. Li Changge survived because he had no reason to know. Don't forget that the so-called "Centering Monkey" plan was kept secret and excluded Li Changge. Since Li Changge didn't know the existence of the "Centering Monkey" plan, no matter Did he know about this through other channels? There was no intention or basis to sabotage the plan. It can be said that he met Yao Suyi in Wuxing Mountain by chance. "

Qi Xuansu said softly: "It just makes sense, it's a matter of choice."

"For Li Changge, just the word "reluctantly" is enough. Many things are untenable as long as we study deeply or carefully, but the key is how to study deeply or carefully. Didn't the two major Jiangnan cases just go away? Zhang Yuelu said, "If it were you who had a private fight with Yao Suyi and killed Yao Suyi, even if you calculated carefully and all the procedures were in compliance with the rules and there were all kinds of personal and material evidence, Quanzhen Taoism would have plenty of ways to deal with you. The reason It's very simple. If you don't have any strength, just use your strength to defeat it."

"Li Changge is different. With Taiping Dao backing him up, it's hard to do anything to him. To put it bluntly, a private fight resulted in a life. No matter how big his background is, Yao Pei is just a fourth-grade sacrificial wine in name. Taoist priests have not reached the level of discussion in Jinque, and they must be dealt with by Beichen Hall and Fengxian Hall in the end. Whose Beichen Hall and Fengxian Hall are Beichen Hall and Fengxian Hall today?"

"Of course, if Yao Suyi killed Li Changge, the result would be the same. It would be difficult for Taiping Taoism to do anything to Yao Suyi, and Quanzhen Taoism would also protect Yao Pei. From this point of view, Li Changge actually made complicated things change. It's so simple, it's like he said to Yao Suyi, we don't want such trouble and such calculations, let's just see the truth directly, horizontally and vertically, the winner will stand, the loser will lie down, winner takes all . This is actually a dangerous move. It can also be said that Li Changge is conceited and dares to take the initiative. "

Qi Xuansu lamented: "Being from a high-class family, even if you are conceited, it is very difficult for you to dare to take risks. If I had his background, I would probably be lazy."

Zhang Yuelu said leisurely: "If you want to reach the top of the Grand Master, you must have this consciousness, no matter who you are. If you just want to be a rich and idle person, you can be like my cousin. Besides, the competition within the Li family is also It's very intense, just like raising a poison. If you don't advance, you will retreat. There is no room for useless people."

Qi Xuansu asked: "Then who do you think will win?"

Zhang Yuelu was silent for a moment: "Putting aside the camp and friendship, I think Li Changge has a greater chance of winning. He has the upper hand and is prepared, and he is an immortal. Now I can only pray for Yao Suyi's future. Hands, such as her ancestral witch bloodline. In fact, I don't agree with this. When I asked her if it was okay, she said that she would never show off, so I had to respect her choice. "

Qi Xuansu asked again: "Did you guess that Li Changge would take action from the beginning?"

"Think with your brain." Zhang Yuelu pointed with his finger.

Qi Xuansu clicked his tongue and said, "You are so smart. If I want to make small moves in the future, wouldn't it be impossible for me to hide it from you?"

Zhang Yuelu raised his eyebrows: "That's not necessarily the case.

You know how many things you have hidden from me. If you really want to do something evil without telling me, it should not be difficult. "

Qi Xuansu said seriously: "What are you talking about? It makes me sound like a habitual criminal."

"Isn't it?" Zhang Yuelu laughed, "I had to boast, but if I were an innocent and simple girl, I would still be kept in the dark by you."

Qi Xuansu coughed lightly and said, "Even if I am a habitual offender, I have already done everything I need to account for."

"Then is there anything else that should not be explained?" Zhang Yuelu said in a gentle tone, "Don't play word games. When the matter in the Imperial Capital is over and when I have met Qiniang, we can have a good talk on the basis of equality, friendliness and mutual respect. Let’s talk about this issue.”

Qi Xuansu blinked and wisely did not continue speaking.

Taoist companions are too smart, which is a good thing, but also not a good thing.

It's a good thing, naturally, because the two of them can support and help each other, and no one is holding them back. It's not a good thing, because the little thoughts will be seen through at a glance. It's like saying that this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have conflicts. A silly girl will only regard Qiniang as a good person, full of respect and gratitude. But it was Zhang Yuelu who immediately noticed many irrationalities in Qiniang's behavior. Conflicts arose spontaneously. Even if Qi Xuansu wanted to make peace in the middle, he would be seen through at a glance.

Real people always say some great truths, everything has two sides, and if you didn't take it seriously in the past, you didn't realize it until it happened to you, it actually makes sense.

As the two of them continued to go deeper, they gradually felt the increasingly turbulent earth energy, which meant that their destination was not far away.

This path that goes all the way forward is finally coming to an end.

The two of them stopped joking and their expressions became serious.

There is also a cave hall at the end of the passage, but it is much larger than all the previous cave halls. It is several times the size of the cave hall where Jiachen Spirit Officer and Renatus are.

The entire cave hall is a concentric circle structure, with a square-shaped lake in the middle. A figure is sitting on the lake with his back to the exit of the passage, and there is no microwave around him. However, the entire lake is not calm, and is turning into a whirlpool. Only because of the suppression of the figure on the lake, the water of the lake has not yet overflowed the embankment.

Zhang Yuelu said softly: "These lakes are actually the embodiment of the earth's energy, not real lakes. From this point of view, the "Heart Monkey" is at the bottom of the lake. "

Qi Xuansu nodded slightly.

This is the earth energy of Wuxing Mountain. Although it is suppressed, Qi Xuansu can still feel the majestic power contained in it. If you accidentally fall into the lake, it will be difficult to survive.

There was another figure by the lake, dressed in black uniform, with his back to the two of them, and his hands behind his back.

He was already aware of the arrival of Zhang Yuelu and Qi Xuansu, but he did not turn around. He just said, "It's half an hour before Zi Shi."

"The fireworks in the Imperial Capital are ready. If you stand on the top of Five Elements Mountain, you should be able to see the sky full of fireworks over the Imperial Capital, lighting up the night sky and blocking out the stars."

"At night, the east wind blows thousands of flowers and trees down, and the stars fall like rain. This is really a wonderful artistic conception. Looking at such beautiful scenery and experiencing the joy of success, isn't it a beautiful thing?"

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu were both shocked and couldn't help but look at each other.

Half an hour left? !

Zhang Yuelu said in a deep voice: "His Royal Highness the King of Liao?"

The King of Liao smiled: "I've heard about the name for a long time, Zhang Gaogong. In half an hour, you will serve as witnesses and see the legendary creature, which can be comparable to the "Emperor Shakti". "

Zhang Yuelu said: "This is not allowed by the Taoist sect."

The King of Liao's tone was very calm: "The imperial court does not need the permission or disapproval of the Taoist sect to do things. The Taoist sect has no right to interfere."

Zhang Yuelu said: "If that's the case, then why are you so secretive? In this case, you'd better talk to Jin Que."

King Liao finally turned around and let people see his true face.

He also inherited the beauty of the Qin family, but his Royal Highness the King of Liao looked younger than King Qin Quanyi of Jin, probably only thirty years old.

A sword hung from his waist.

The entire sword was carved into a golden dragon

It looks like the head of the sword is the head of a dragon. There is a golden orb inlaid on the head of the sword, like a dragon holding a pearl. The hilt below the head is the dragon's neck and part of the body. The fine scales replace the ones usually used to wrap around the hilt. The metal wire, and then the sword, were carved to look like two dragon claws.

Daxuan follows ancient rituals and does not worship dragons because the Taoist sect massacres dragons. The so-called twelve-chapter uniform is a garment embroidered with twelve kinds of patterns, and the dragon is just one of them. In fact, there was no such thing as a dragon robe in ancient times, and the bright yellow color was not respected. It was not until the Jinzhang and Dawei years, under the influence of the Jinzhang people, that the dragon became the main pattern. In the Daqi years, it was still the sun and moon. On the shoulders, the stars are arranged behind the back, which means "carrying the sun and moon on the shoulders and carrying the stars on the back." This is also the established style of Daxuan's current uniform.

This long sword that looks like a golden dragon obviously does not conform to the style of Daxuan, but rather resembles something from the Wei Dynasty.

Zhang Yuelu, who was well-informed, knew the origin of this sword after just a moment of thought, and said softly: "It is 'Emperor Ying', the ancestral sword of the Xu family of the Wei royal family, a semi-immortal that is as famous as the 'Human World'" . It's just that except for the two emperors Taizu and Taizong, the subsequent emperors gradually no longer had the extraordinary military power of a thousand, and this famous sword was just a pearl covered in dust, and could only be hidden deep in the secret vault of the Wei royal family. . "

"Good insight." King Liao laughed, "This is indeed the sword passed down from generation to generation of the Wei royal family. Later, the Wei royal family fell and fell into the hands of the Li family of the East China Sea. Until the emperor's sister-in-law married into our Qin family, this He returned to the imperial capital only after taking the sword as a dowry."

Qi Xuansu could only sigh in his heart: "Using a semi-immortal object as a dowry is really a big deal. But the royal betrothal gift will definitely not be missing."

The King of Liao slowly pushed the sword with his thumb.

"Emperor Ying" was unsheathed for three minutes, and there was a faint dragon roar, which shocked people's hearts, as if a real dragon was coming, and the huge dragon power made all mortals fearful.
