Tome of Troubled Times Chapter 738: Zhao Wang Li Ding

Chapter 738 King Zhao Li Ding

Li Shentong and Yuxu have been friends for many years. When Yuxu gave wine to Li Shentong through Zhao Changhe, it was a bit like supporting Zhao Changhe and letting Li Shentong give advice on bodybuilding. Li Shentong really gave me face, just because of a mere bottle of wine, he actually made a point or two, he was quite like a mountain and a river.

So even if Li Shentong didn't know everything about Yuxu's side, at least he knew some of the key things.

In fact, at that time, Li Shentong said that he owed Zhao Changhe a favor and could do something for him because Zhao Changhe helped him cover up the robbery of official food. Zhao Changhe thought that Yue Hongling was being hunted in Bashu, so he entrusted him to take care of Yue Hongling. In the end, because Yue Hongling's people were all in the Miao territory and there was no need for Li Shentong to take care of them, the commission was not completed. Li Shentong said that it could be mentioned again in the future.

If we follow the moral principles of the world, Zhao Changhe could have made the request directly this time, but both parties seemed to have forgotten about it in a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned it.

Because the current matter is no longer a personal matter, both parties need to be responsible for the entire force, and it cannot be exchanged for favors. You are asking for trouble by talking about it.

But just asking Li Shentong to go out alone is just the right thing, and there is no need to say more about the tacit understanding.

Li Shentong didn’t mention this either. He gnawed steamed buns with Zhao Changhe and said as if chatting about ordinary things: “I think you should know that there are some gods and demons...or we don’t call them gods and demons. It’s boring. In fact, they are Those who are strong in the realm of cultivation are mainly realized through the spread of the sect in the human world. You should understand it if you are so involved with the Four Symbols Sect."

Not only did Zhao Changhe understand the hidden secret, he also directly benefited from it.

Now that the Four Symbols Religion is the state religion, he has absorbed a lot of the power of faith spread because he is the New Night Emperor. Even when the sword was forged, the triple secret treasure was broken on the spot. It was only through gathering the power of Qi and faith that one could break through it. However, it has only been so long since breaking the triple secret treasure that I have already tried to break through it. The accumulation speed of this practice and It has a lot to do with the growing power of faith.

The person who has benefited the most from the Four Symbols Religion is Sanniang. She not only accepted the Four Symbols Xuanwu belief, but also the Poseidon belief. Now that the belief is widely spread overseas, the speed of her practice is probably the most outrageous.

"So what Sect Master Li means is that Yuxu will participate in the worldly struggle for the sake of competing for sectarian beliefs?"

"Yuxu has already reached the half-step imperial realm a long time ago, and now he has broken through the imperial realm. He has his own pride. He has always resented being driven by the Taoist to do this and that, and refused to participate in this. There are many people in the world Many Taoist sects, such as Taiyi Sect Guichen, etc., did not need Yuxu to do anything. The Taoist sects were naturally prosperous, and the Taoist Master would not force Yuxu too much, so he was in peace." Li Shentong sighed: "But. Then there were two questions, both related to you."

Zhao Changhe roughly knows what it is.

Sure enough, I heard Li Shen's channel: "First of all, Yuxu didn't have to preach before. A big excuse was for the heavenly book. When? Meng∽咛焓槎? Yuxu didn't even stop him, and didn't say whether This will at least make it difficult for him to find reasons to refuse other matters."

Zhao Changhe was silent. It was a moment of pleasure to seize the Book of Heaven, and he really didn't think too much about other people's affairs. Yuxu took on a lot of responsibilities for himself here.

Because when the blind man took action, the other party felt that it was the blind man who had snatched the Book of Heaven and not Zhao Changhe, so he did not dare to cause trouble to the blind man, otherwise they might have come to him long ago. But not troubling him with Zhao Changhe and the blind man does not mean not troubling Yuxu. It can be imagined that the relationship between Yuxu and Dao Zun has been tense in the past two years. The more Dao Zun recovers, the more uncomfortable Yuxu becomes. Now that he is asked to do something else, it is really difficult to refuse.

Li Shentong said again: "Secondly, Xia Longyuan originally destroyed Buddhism and the Four Symbols Sect was a demonic sect in the dark. The Taoist sect was the only one in the world, so that's okay. Now that Xia Longyuan is dead, Buddhism is showing signs of recovery. , the Four Symbols Sect became the state religion again, preaching openly and openly, and the Taoist sect's status suddenly became precarious. Even if Tao Zun didn't say anything, Yuxu should have done something as the highest representative of the Taoist sect in this world. "

It seemed that they were responsible for Xia Longyuan's death, but Zhao Changhe was actually protecting Xia. But the so-called relationship refers to the relationship between the Four Symbols Sect and Zhao Changhe, who is the Night Emperor of the Four Symbols Sect.

It is true that both questions are directly related to Zhao Changhe, and they are also directly related to the current Han Dynasty.

In other words, it would be extremely reasonable for Yuxu to directly leave the field and support the Li family, and he would not be blamed at all.

No wonder Li Shentong wanted to attack Hanzhong before, but these days he has stopped fighting and needs to go out on his own. That's because due to the strong relationship between Yuxu and Li Shentong, it was possible for Guanlong and Bashu to merge, instead of the old impression that Li Shentong would definitely fight upwards.

Thinking of this, Zhao Changhe broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he was not lazy and headed straight to the southwest as soon as the North Land was settled. If Li Shentong really joins forces with the Li family, there will be big trouble. Everyone knows how terrible the Qin and Han Dynasty template is when Guanlong and Bashu are integrated into one.

The reason why we haven't united yet is of course because the issue of the Hu people is blocking us and Li Shentong cannot unite.

Li Shentong knew from Zhao Changhe's expression that he understood, and said: "The contact between Yuxu and the Li family is also stuck with the Hu people. Yuxu hopes that the Li family rejects the Hu people, so that they can cooperate fully. And now I have no way of knowing what is going on between the two parties, so you have a lot to do here. If you do it well, you might be able to cooperate with Yuxu to defeat the barbarians first."

Yue Hongling couldn't help but ask: "Does the Shiwai Sect also care about Hu Han?"

Li Shentong shook his head: "No one jumps out of the cracks in the rocks. Yuxu also had a home before he became a monk. Do you think he lost his home?"

I see... Yue Hongling nodded and said no more.

Li Shentong added: "What's more, the Hu people are confident of immortality, and they also have conflicts on sect matters. If you have become a monk, your past grudges will be like clouds, but this thing cannot be reconciled. But then again, In this aspect alone, they can cooperate. At least Dao Zun will think that they can cooperate. As long as they push you guys away first, the belief in Changshengtian will not win over in China. He will have such confidence. "

Zhao Changhe nodded slightly: "Yes, the thoughts of gods and demons are different from those of human beings. Senior Yuxu is still a human being after all, but Taoist Master's perspective may not be the same..."

Li Shen Channel: "In other words, once Tao Zun pressures Yuxu to put down his personal grudges, their cooperation will be easily established. Now it is completely supported by Yuxu's tone. If you really think that Kunlun is not involved in the struggle for hegemony, When you are fighting to the death with Beihu, if Tao Zun touches you from behind, you will know what it means to be dumbfounded."

Zhao Changhe clasped the table gently and pondered for a long time, and said in a low voice: "Thank you very much, Sect Master Li, for informing me... In this way, I really should meet Senior Yuxu first."

Li Shentong suddenly laughed: "You dare to go to Kunlun? When Dao Zun sees you stepping into the range, he might kill you without saying anything. And besides Dao Zun, you also know that Kunlun is in chaos. The other forces don’t have any good intentions towards you. To you, it’s like a dragon’s pond and a tiger’s den.”

"I really don't dare to go to Kunlun...it's not the right time." Zhao Changhe said calmly: "But I dare to go to Chang'an."

Li Shentong was stunned, and Zhao Changhe continued: "Senior Yuxu still has a lot of messy things going on behind his back, and someone is secretly targeting them... He will want to know, and this is the basis for my conversation with him. Sect Master Li I have never been friends with Senior Yuxu, so I might as well send a message and see you all in Chang'an."

Li Shentong became serious: "Someone is targeting Yuxu?"

Zhao Changhe said: "It may not be aimed at him, but it must be detrimental to him. I know that under the pressure of Dao Zun, it is impossible to persuade Senior Yuxu with righteousness alone, but since his own life and death are involved, Of course we can talk about it.”

Li Shentong suddenly smiled and said: "You know how to persuade me with righteousness?"

Zhao Changhe said: "I did not state any righteousness to Sect Master Li, but Sect Master Li had righteousness in his heart, so he was deeply touched by many things I said."

Li Shentong nodded: "Have you ever thought that what you said is just a mirror of flowers and moon in the water?"

"Which aspect?"

"For example, dividing acres of land is more cumbersome and not too difficult. However, once there is a sale, mergers will occur over time. And if land sales are prohibited, isn't it unnatural and just an ideal? ?"

Zhao Changhe nodded: "Indeed. But it can be delayed."

Li Shentong stared into his eyes: "Looking at your attitude, you have had these thoughts in your mind, but you just refused to say them?"

Zhao Changhe said: "It's not that I refuse to say it. I do have a lot of ideas in my mind, but I also need to do more research. I can't even figure out the current yield per mu. I have seen too little and I don't know what I know. There are too few cases, and it is irresponsible to just take a quick look at it. In today’s situation, everyone does not have the time and energy, so it would be good to delay it first. ”

Li Shentong showed a smile: "Very good. You didn't boast."

Zhao Changhe said sincerely: "These are important matters for the national economy and people's livelihood. Any rhetoric may bring disastrous consequences. I can only say that there are some directions to think about. More specific things require long-term research. If Sect Master Li is interested, he can Let’s think about it together.”

Lishen Channel: "Then your so-called open education, where everyone can practice martial arts and read books, is it just a so-called direction, or can it be said to be just an expectation? I thought about it at night, but I can't actually do it... …”

"If Sect Master Li himself is willing to give strong support, then the main reason why it can't be done is because paper and printing can't keep up..." Zhao Changhe said: "But as long as we know what the difference is, we can think about it in this direction, right? ... Not everyone in the world is practicing martial arts. I think the technology of sea ships is already very strong. If relevant craftsmen can be summoned and come up with ideas, it can be solved sooner or later. Well... I will solve this matter later in Beijing. It's appropriate. If Sect Master Li is interested, he will be the first to promote it to Bashu."

Zhao Changhe’s first words made Li Shentong’s eyes change. What he said was that he couldn't do it after thinking about it at night, but he just felt that he couldn't do it, because he hadn't figured out the reason why he couldn't do it. Zhao Changhe said it straight away. This profoundly proves that Zhao Changhe is really not just drawing the pie casually, but has already had a comprehensive idea.

As for whether it can be done, it is actually not that important.

He was silent for a long time, and finally stood up: "Yuxu is at the Chang'an Tower viewing platform right now. You don't need me to make an appointment. You can go on your own. As for me, I won't go with you. If you If you die in Chang'an, don't worry about anything."

Situ Xiao couldn't help but said: "Master..."

Li Shentong glared at him, and then said to Zhao Changhe: "We need King Zhao's help for two things now. Let's go after we finish them. One is to find out the Tingxue Tower Sword Slave, and the other is to ask King Zhao to organize Yuan Suppressing Demon I have a lot of help.”

This was said more and more rudely, as if Zhao Changhe should help him with things, but Zhao Changhe laughed happily: "Okay, let's do it now."

Li Shentong stared at him deeply, turned around and grabbed Situ and smiled: "Let's go, there are a lot of things to do, who allows you to eat noodles here endlessly?"

Watching Situ Xiao being dragged and stumbling away, Yue Hongling finally laughed: "Situ's behavior in the sect is very different from that in the world. He is quite heroic in the world, and he doesn't dare to breathe in front of his master. ”

Zhao Changhe didn’t even finish eating the steamed buns, and continued to eat the steamed buns: “It’s because I was suppressed by the master in the sect, so I was so promiscuous in the world. He also recited poems when he appeared, which is better than some... literary talents. OK."

Blind man: "?"

Yue Hongling nodded: "Sect Leader Li is very powerful, his eyes are glaring, and his murderous intent is so fierce that most people can't handle it."

Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "I don’t see you being timid."

Yue Hongling said: "Then you were so honest and willing to help him in the end because you were scared?"

"Because for a man like him, the less polite he is to you and asking you to help, the more he will treat you as a friend, which is a good thing." Zhao Changhe said: "Especially if you really let me organize the Demon Suppression Division, you know What does this mean? ”

"He organized the Demon-Suppressing Division, and he controls it. What does that mean? You can't say this is the Dahan Demon-Suppressing Division's branch office in Shu, right?"

"That's different." Zhao Changhe said with a smile: "Because it is the Demon Suppression Division organized by me, and it is normal for me to be responsible for it. No one can define what they can report to me and what they cannot, there are a lot of If they can't say anything to me, they won't ask me to organize the Demon Suppression Division. If they cross the bridge and draw a wall, it will be tantamount to turning against me. Do you think he has this idea? "

Yue Hongling was startled and her expression changed.

On the surface, this seems to mean in-depth cooperation with Zhao Changhe, but in a sense... does this mean a bit of surrender?

As for what? Just those few words of yours?

Zhao Changhe finished the steamed buns in a few licks and stood up: "I'm going to do the work of suppressing the Demon Division for Bashu. You have to rest first. I'm afraid there will be a **** battle when we get to Chang'an."

Seeing Zhao Changhe running away full of energy, Yue Hongling shook her head and laughed. She really didn't follow him and just sat in the pavilion practicing.

She really felt a little turbulent in energy and a sense of concentration of soul. Zhao Changhe also noticed this and told her to rest peacefully.

Following him, I really feel like I can't get involved in many things, can't help, can't provide advice, just a pure guard. But in my heart, I don't feel that this deviates from my own preferences at all, let alone boring. In terms of martial arts, he has helped more people like this; in terms of increasing his knowledge, the knowledge around him is much more novel than the stories of Jianghu; in terms of swordsmanship practice, nowadays, the horizons are wider and the swordsmanship is more profound. Yue Hongling always feels that this is better than his experience in breaking the imperial sword. More like a straight path.

Maybe he can break the imperial rule earlier than Zhao Changhe... After all, some things are ordinary to him, but to others they are earth-shattering and touching.

Of course, the most important thing is that she feels at peace as long as she is by his side. Seeing him talking to the leader of the party and the senior Tianbang, and forcefully describing the other party as one of his own, Yue Hongling feels better than winning a **** battle. A sense of accomplishment.

Kendo and kendo are different.

Yue Hongling once received part of the inheritance from the Sword Emperor, and it may be a later inheritance. Everyone has agreed in the past. Maybe in the future, a trip to the Sword Emperor's Mausoleum will be needed to confirm this cause and effect.

And what is the Sword King?

In the past, at the end of the road, one might be called the Sword God, or the Sword Master. But if he is called the Sword Emperor... does that mean he is called the Sword Emperor when Wan Jian bows his head? If so, can someone else's sword be used by me?

Just like what Zhao Changhe is doing now...is this the Emperor's Sword?

While Yue Hongling was practicing, the sword energy behind her gradually dispersed.

The guards in the guest house in the distance suddenly felt that their swords and waist knives began to tremble. They were shocked and stretched out their hands to press it, but the tremor became more and more serious and they could not hold it down at all.

"Clang, Clang, Clang!" Countless crisp sounds came at the same time, and swords within a few miles around were unsheathed and shot straight into the air.

Then he moved toward the guest house, shaking slightly, as if he was bowing from a distance.

Thousands of swords go to the emperor.

The shadow of a huge ancient sword shot straight into the sky, and the sky was filled with red clouds. Within the sword, the baby, which was only two days old, opened its eyes.

Yue Hongling has been stuck in the half-step imperial realm for some time, but on this peaceful and peaceful morning, she suddenly broke through.

Li Shentong, who was still on the way back home with his apprentice in hand, looked back in astonishment. The master and apprentice were dumbfounded as they looked at the shadow of the sword in the air.

Where did this monster come from? We just talked a few words in the past two days, and you were just listening in, so it broke the law?

That Situ Xiao was listening the whole time, how come he didn’t even move a hair?

Are these two people sent by God to attack people?

Zhao Changhe stood in a corner somewhere, looking back and smiling slightly.

He was not surprised by this. Yue Hongling was just a little bit stuck on that layer of window paper. Breakthroughs at any time are not unusual. All they need is an opportunity. She just didn't expect that the conversations in the past two days would be an opportunity for her... What a genius... People say that I am a genius, but I am actually quite talented. Putting aside the cheats, I am really not that outrageous. Sister-in-law is the real genius, the only pervert in the world.

"Blind blind."

"What are you doing again?"

"When you sent me to Zhaocuo and saw Hong Ling for the first time, was that intentional?"

The blind man said angrily: "You took the position yourself, it's none of my business."

"The position card I drew is only related to the throne, and it should probably be on Chi Chi. But how to cut it is up to you. No matter how you arrange the encounter between me and Chi Chi, it does not have to appear in Mr. Zhao Cuo. See the red feather."

"Hey, you've got a brain." The blind man said lazily: "It's okay. As long as you know how to look at Qi, you should also know that she is the protagonist of this era. There is nothing strange about throwing you next to the protagonist. It's just that But now your protagonist’s fate is more obvious, after all, the protagonist is all yours.”

Zhao Changhe stopped talking to her and kept silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Since the Sword Emperor's inheritance is the protagonist, it means that there are still very important things on the Sword Emperor's side."

The blind man was caught off guard and revealed his secret, and immediately shut up.

"Your Highness." A man came out from the corner of the street and quietly saluted Zhao Changhe: "Meet us secretly. What's the important matter?"

The elites of Zhenmo Division are hiding in Chengdu and have not yet withdrawn. This is truly an elite person. He dares to stay under the nose of King Daxi like Li Shentong. He is truly loyal and brave. It's just that no one has contacted them in the past two months. Now seeing His Highness King Zhao secretly contacting them is like meeting the backbone.

Is this the imperial court finally going to regain Bashu? But we really can't collect much information these days. It's too dangerous here... Just last night, we were dragged out and killed an unknown number of people. There is no way to count them.

As a result, the first thing the mastermind said frightened them to death: "Follow me to see Li Shentong. When the Demon Suppression Division reopens, the first thing to do is to monitor the land and the officials' illegal activities."

The spies looked around with their heads raised. What flag was planted over the city gate?

Isn’t that still the great cauldron flag of the Shenhuang Sect? Nothing has changed!

Having said that, no one has been able to move the big tripod inserted by Zhao Changhe at the city gate. Pedestrians coming and going will stop and watch, and it has become a scene at the city gate. Everyone calls it Zhao Wangli tripod.

Ordinarily, this would hinder traffic, and in theory, it was King Zhao's show of power over Bashu, which would be detrimental to Li Shentong's face. It should be very easy for Li Shentong to pull out the cauldron himself, but he hasn't moved it yet... Does this mean something in itself?
