The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 97

Tang Wanzhuang looked at Zhao Changhe's cautious smiling face, and wondered in his heart that this fellow has always been rebellious and lawless, when did he show such an apologetic attitude?

Because of Xia Chichi?

It would be a little troublesome if he really fell in love with a demon girl in his identity... But no matter what, at the beginning of the cooperation, he must not do anything that would cause him to be separated, so let's talk about it later.

She didn't intend to start a moth, and slowly got to the point: "The Four Elephants Sect came here, no doubt it was for the sword in the ancient sword lake. The Four Elephants Sect has also held many sacrifices here before, and I guess they They have indeed found some ways, and it is possible to summon the ancient sword... They may even have summed up some of the habits of the ancient sword."

Zhao Changhe added a cup of tea to her: "And then?"

Looking at his appearance, Tang Wanzhuang was a little funny, and said leisurely: "The imperial court did not take this sword, there are reasons for it. The collapse of the last era, the chaos of the universe, formed a lot of space cracks, or dimensional fragments, scattered everywhere. Through In the crack, there may be a scene from the past, floating alone in the void; or there may be only violent turbulence, and there is no way to survive."

Zhao Changhe understood what he heard: "So the bottom of the ancient sword lake actually leads to a fragment of a dimension, which can be said to not exist in this world, no wonder it has not been found for so many years."

"Yes." Tang Wanzhuang is very satisfied with his erudition, otherwise it is not easy to explain to ordinary people what dimensional fragments are: "If it is said that the whole world is the king's land, does this space of different degrees count? Your Majesty, there is no need to force it , leave it to fate. These places often have some ancient secrets, which are also opportunities for people, and the road of people coveting the sky cannot be stopped."

Zhao Changhe was taken aback: "This is the idea of ​​an emperor? It shouldn't be... Shouldn't he monopolize resources..."

Tang Wanzhuang glanced at him, but said nothing.

This really shouldn't be the idea of ​​an emperor. She admires His Majesty's demeanor. But it seems that it may not be a good thing, now that there are so many chaos, Xia Longyuan's atmosphere may have to bear some blame.

She is not suitable to talk about His Majesty, so she just said: "In short, this is His Majesty's kindness to the people, and there is no falsehood. Although there must be many dangers in it, there must be heroes rising in the dangers——Yue Hongling is like this, and now she relies on It's not the inheritance of the third-rate Luoxia Villa."

Zhao Changhe nodded and said, "Understood. Please continue."

"The same is true of Gujian Lake. We all know that it is a different dimension, and there is indeed a divine sword hidden in it. The imperial court did not deliberately take it, which does not mean that we have not explored it. If someone thinks that the imperial court does not take it It’s wrong because we don’t know how to do it, we know how to get it, but we find it a bit tricky and haven’t implemented it.”

"So what's the problem?"

"It was supposed to be the sword of a pair of lovers in ancient times. Before the era collapsed, the man may have betrayed his heart, and the woman was heartbroken. It just so happened that the era collapsed, and the sword had a spirit. It tried its best to protect the master's body and isolate the dimension. Hidden at the bottom of the lake. At that time, the sun turned to summer, which is probably in line with the man's practice, and using some psychic methods at this time may make the sword appear."

Zhao Changhe understood: "The purpose of its appearance is to think that the heartless man is here to kill the heartless man for the master, so it will be very fierce. Who will kill whoever it sees?"

"That's not the case. Now that you have a dragon bird, you should know that the so-called sword spirit is not a life that really thinks for itself, but just a kind of will. The master's dying hatred for the heartless man is poured into it. If it can't sense that kind of That's nothing more than the breath of bad luck, it may not take the initiative to kill, but if it is aware of it, it will definitely kill, including those who break the promise, and the judgment given to it is similar." Tang Wanzhuang sighed: "However, the world can How many people dare to say that they can prevent it from killing intent...so every time it manifests, someone dies."

Zhao Changhe put his hands together and sat obediently.

He felt that if he went, he might be chopped into mud.

Chichi, that dead demon girl who didn't tell the truth, is probably also in suspense...

Tang Wanzhuang said: "The Four Elephants Sect is very powerful, and they may have found out these clues, but after all, they are acting secretly, and it is unlikely that they are as detailed as our investigation. So they either give it up, and if they still have to implement it, what do you think they will do?"

Zhao Changhe thought for a while: "Perhaps relying on force, he thought that someone who waded through the murderous opportunity and stabilized the sword would be controllable, so he might find an honest gentleman to help them hold the sword, and then snatch it."

"Yes, this seat also guesses the same way, and it is in line with the devil's religion... But that's bad." Tang Wanzhuang said: "If the sword is willing to be held by an honest gentleman, it is equivalent to recognizing the new owner. In less than a moment The new owner was killed, ask Longque what he thinks."

Longque: "..."

Zhao Changhe Waterfall Khan.

As the second most arrogant dragon sparrow, if it has the ability to move on its own, it will absolutely go crazy and kill all the people present. The other party's hateful sword is even more so. Originally, it judged that it was surrounded by a group of heartless and treacherous people, but it actually killed the new good master again. That's not crazy!

Tang Wanzhuang said: "We haven't been able to find out how many masters from the Four Elephants Sect have come. They hide a little deep. But in order to get a sword that is not related to the Four Elephant Sect's beliefs, it can only be regarded as an ordinary treasure hunt. As for sending out the strong players like Suzaku, who are at the top of the multiplayer list, it may not be able to defeat the crazy sword..."

"Yes." Zhao Changhe nodded and said, "After all, the sword is not a human being, it doesn't hurt, it's not afraid of injury, and it's light and sharp. It's hard to limit. We still don't know how magical the ancient sword is. If your spirituality is not enough, if you can fly around and kill people by yourself, it will be very, very troublesome."

Tang Wanzhuang nodded: "Exactly, and with its ancient power, it is very likely that this sword will actively kill people. Once it escapes the restriction of the Four Elephants Sect and comes out to wreak havoc, Jianhu City may be massacred." Luo, we don't want to see this matter, we must stop it, these are the details of your mission."

Zhao Changhe asked: "Where are the members of the Four Elephants Sect? Does Zhenmai have any clues? Maybe I can talk directly to Chichi."

"They were cautious. They found that Zhenmensi had strengthened their strength, and they moved away. They didn't find a new address in a short time. There is also a reason why this task was entrusted to you. You may be able to communicate with Xia Chichi. If you can persuade her to give up this task It's best, if you don't want to give up, you definitely can't use that method."

Zhao Changhe was worried about Xia Chichi, so he didn't have the time to say more, he got up and cupped his hands and said, "Understood, I will take care of this matter. Let me go first."

Zhao Changhe left the bamboo building worriedly, Tang Wanzhuang slowly stood on the edge of the railing, leaning on the railing to see his back as he strode away, the breeze blew by, and she coughed a few more times.

Finally, a maid came out from nowhere, and put a cloak on her: "Miss, since you are here in person, you can guard Jianhu directly, so that the Four Elephant Cult can't move rashly, why let him do this?" He is only at the fourth level of the entrance, neither the guardians of the Four Elephant Sect nor the ancient sword itself can handle it."

Tang Wanzhuang shook her head slightly: "I will protect him secretly, and won't let him have any accidents. This task is nothing more than giving him a reason to join the Zhenmagic Division, otherwise, how can I talk so easily to the Four Elephant Sect, and just stop him from doing things? "

"Ah?" The maid didn't understand even more: "He... If he is not a prince, what's the use of joining Zhenmensi?"

"It's the official identity, not the Department of Zhenmo. It also allows onlookers to understand my judgment of Tang Wanzhuang, that he is the prince." Tang Wanzhuang coughed lightly again, and after a long while said in a low voice: "When all When everyone regards him as the prince, he is naturally the prince, and his own denial is meaningless."

The maid stammered, "Miss, is this counting as cheating him? You said that you only asked about his identity, but you can't control others. So that's the idea..."

"If it would be a shame to let him be the emperor...cough cough...so be it." Tang Wanzhuang spread her palms and looked at the blood she coughed up: "After all, my time...is only a few years. "

When Zhao Changhe met Tang Wanzhuang in the bamboo building, Han Wubing also met people from the Four Elephant Sect.

"Young Master Han, do you want a good sword?"

"Yes, you have?"

"I don't have one, but there are in Gujian Lake."

"The legend is false."

"No, it's true, and we have a way to make it appear. Mr. Han might as well take a look. If there is, you can take it yourself. If not, just leave."

"Who do you need me to kill?" Han Wubing's first reaction was to buy someone to kill someone, otherwise he would be taken advantage of and give you a sword.

"Maitreya taught Zhang Banfo, you should have heard it."

"He..." Han Wubing pondered slightly: "It's very difficult, I have to wait until I see the sword, now?"

"The day of Lixia."

"I have an appointment that day, let's change it."

"Mr. Han, if the appointment is for a martial arts competition, it can be in the evening, and the sword can be drawn in the daytime. There is no conflict."

Han Wubing considered for a long time, but finally his desire for a good sword prevailed, he nodded and said, "Okay, then Lixia, how can I find you?"

"Young Master, you will know when you come to the lake." The man said very sincerely, and slowly backed away.
