Long Live The Emperor! Chapter 177: Visiting and returning home
A dark boundary, in the gloomy hall, is full of shadows and unpredictable.
Several Wu family attendants have completed their reports.
It is not a trivial matter that a "pleasure island" of the Wu family was completely destroyed, or it was the first time that the family was destroyed by someone.
In the center of the main hall is a throne of white bones,
Wu Ji is wearing a back earth mask and is sitting on the seat, holding her cheeks.
During this period of time, she has already brought under her command two major underground forces south of the Great River,
That is, the twelve signs of the hidden blade, and the blood rains on the eighth floor.
The Twelve Elements of Hidden Blades is an Assassin organization. This organization has powerful information gathering capabilities, so powerful that they never appear in front of the world, and no one knows how to place an order with them.
If they think you need to kill someone, and they can kill that person for you, they will leave a letter by your side that will suddenly appear in your pocket, under your pillow, on your desk superior.
The letter is very recognizable, there is a gray crossed skull in the lower right corner, and their remuneration has been written in advance, if you want, you just need to press the handprint and put it in place.
All that remains is to prepare for payment.
Of course, you can also not accept the letter's offer, then the result is simple, your opponent will receive the same letter, and you will die.
Blood Rain Thousand Eighth Floor is a killer organization, this organization is notorious,
Just because this organization doesn't care about good or evil, it only asks for money,
And the famous saying in the building since ancient times is "every head has a price",
As long as the money or remuneration is appropriate, even parents and mothers can be tortured and killed for you.
What is even more outrageous is that this organization actually implements the "temporary task system for peripheral personnel". In other words, no matter who is short of money, he can go to the Blood Rain Building to take orders, and then hide his identity. kill.
There have also been many decent forces on the rivers and lakes trying to encircle and suppress this **** building, but they all ended in the death of the teacher, and the murderer is still unknown.
Such a powerful force,
This could not have been captured so quickly.
But the family and these forces are not on the same level at all.
The appearance of Wu Ji and the cooperation of the Wu family's forces directly tore apart all their defenses.
Half an hour later.
A black dove fluttered its wings and flew into the hall.
Wu Ji took off the letter tied to the pigeon's leg, looked at it, and suddenly pinched it with her palm, the letter disappeared quickly as if it was bitten by countless transparent mouths.
"Seventh brother, after being bored for so long, you are finally willing to come out?
However, the world has changed, and your Eleventh Realm is not the only one.
The fourth sister ignored you before, so I will play with you this time. "
Suddenly,
The black dove screamed.
Wu Ji has already let go of her hand, but the black pigeon still can't fly out, it seems to be dragged by a strange force and can't take off,
Then starting from the claws, the whole body disappeared little by little, as if there was an invisible evil spirit who was hungry for food and was eating its body, not even spilling a drop of blood.
...
...
Xia Ji didn't think about recruiting forces.
But what's the use?
It's useless other than wasting your time.
Is there a power that can rival the family?
Can you fight the Supreme Palace, the Eternal Life Pavilion, that you haven't met yet?
No, he sees no hope.
He put on a black cloak, covering his face above the bridge of his nose, and walked alone in the south of the Yangtze River in this spring rain.
The rain wet his clothes, but he didn't care.
The streets are bustling and bustling with people coming and going, but he'll be alone.
He didn't want to go over and ask Su Tian for a book,
But how smart Su Tian is,
In the face of such an existence, doing this by yourself is likely to expose the ultimate trump card.
He believes that Su Tian is sincere to him now,
But then what?
He and Su Tian have only known each other for a few months, and they have lived for more than 10,000 years.
Along the way, he felt a few people in the rivers and lakes who were looking for the whereabouts of King Shenwu. Those people in the rivers and lakes spoke very carefully, their secret codes were clever, and they did everything without leaking, but he was no longer on the same level as these people.
No matter how much those people searched, it was impossible to find him.
Xia Ji ordered a pot of fine wine and a few side dishes upstairs in Jiangnan Chunhuaqiuyue, and listened to the people in the restaurant talking about Jianghu anecdotes for a while.
These anecdotes may be big events for people in the arena, such as what treasures were born, which eldest daughter was in a martial arts competition, and the rankings changed, but to him, it was a big **** point thing.
The realm is high,
Naturally it is far away from the world.
And if one day I'm too tall to be caught up with,
Then everyone will be far away from themselves.
They're talking about topics they're no longer interested in.
What they are happy, sad and happy, they feel like a drizzle, and they will not be tempted at all.
That's why he doesn't want to find a "Dao Companion".
Can Dao Companions keep up with him, at the same level as his life?
Do the Taoist couple and him really like each other, do they absolutely trust each other?
Su Tian may satisfy the first point, but not the second.
An Rongrong may satisfy the second point, but not the first.
"Little Er, let's have another bowl of small wontons."
"Halle, guest officer."
Soon, the steaming wontons are on the table again.
Wonton skin is more fleshy and less meat,
It's delicious,
But I only ate a few,
The leather scroll contract in his mind suddenly reacted.
This time it's not Hu Xian'er,
It's Ji Xuan.
A message came from the leather scroll contract: "Teacher, the national teacher of the Zhou family has appeared, claiming to be the Shifang Zun. He came to see me once, but he said that he came to find the fairies and fairies in Jinghu Lake, and he didn't find them. Gone. But I know he is the national teacher."
“How did you do that?”
"I invited him into the village, and then I chatted with him a few times. He seems to be quite satisfied. Don't worry, teacher, I will let you know as soon as there is a news report."
The information of the leather scroll contract is interrupted, and the new king, who is always ready to betray the country, has completed his information feedback.
Xia Ji knew that since the National Teacher appeared, it meant that the family's integration of the Jianghu Mingming had begun.
The Yinjun integrates the underground world, and the national teacher integrates the rivers and lakes.
No matter what you do, you will meet them immediately.
Have a few more wontons.
The leather roll contract is moving again,
This time it's Hu Xian'er.
"The old man in linen who came to find the Queen last year is here again. He claims to be the Patriarch of Jingming and said that he will take the Queen to the Blessed Land of Heaven to practise Taoism and seek longevity.
If the queen doesn't go, the old man must take the queen away. If she doesn't go, she will be in great trouble. "
Xia Ji remembered, this old Daoist contributed a golden skill bead [Jingming Daoshu], allowing him to master a lot of Daoism, he must have power behind him, maybe he still has an ancient inheritance Extraordinary power.
I have always wanted to find these supernatural forces, but there is no way to enter.
According to Su Tian, these forces are of the kind that are "invincible in their own territory". If there is no guide and forcibly enter, it is simply courting death.
What's more, the location of these forces is almost a mystery.
"Wait for my return."
After Xia Ji finished speaking, he grabbed the speed to eat the wontons, then found a hidden place and directly squeezed the "curse map", and his figure suddenly disappeared in place.
In the messy storage room of a mansion in the imperial capital,
Air fluctuations,
Then, a figure appeared.
Xia Ji looked at the "curse map" and used it twice in a row in just a few days, making the magic weapon appear "cracked". It seems that it can no longer be used in a short period of time. The time will be extremely long, he put away the magic weapon at will, wrapped the python robe again, and walked towards the palace.
...
At this time, the palace.
I have already retreated,
In the empty hall,
Old Daoist in linen held a cane and looked up at the queen on the throne calmly.
Xia Xiaosu's brows were calm, her pale and petite body was wrapped in a golden dragon robe, she said, "Thanks to the real person, but Guzhi is not practicing Taoism."
Old Daoist said: "The poor Daoist can see it, so he knows.
But Pindao still wants to take you away, because this is not a place to stay for a long time. "
He took two steps forward and decided to take it by force.
The two waitresses came out to stop him.
The old man smiled and let out a light breath,
Suddenly, the air in the palace was chaotic,
The two Queen's attendants who had reached the ninth realm were immediately blown away by the air current.
The two knew that they were not opponents, but they still drew their swords and slowly retreated as the old man advanced.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared behind Xia Xiaosu.
Hu Xian'er grabbed the back of the dragon chair with both hands, then propped herself up and vacated her feet, so as to show a kind of majesty of "the mysterious existence behind the queen".
She is bathed in darkness, where all light disappears.
Xia Xiaosu leaned back slightly: "Zhenzhen, Gu advises you not to be impulsive, you can't take Gu in the palace. But Gu is very curious, why do you have to take Gu to practice Taoism?"
Old Dao settled down, and his eyes turned slightly. I don't know when, the entire palace hall has become dark, and there seem to be many pairs of eyes staring at him in the darkness.
And the white eagles came from the sky, like resting, and landed on the glazed tiles of the palace or the corners of the Moon Watch Tower.
In addition, the figure of the queen on the throne is also virtual and real,
If present, if absent,
Old Daoist recognizes that this is a clever Confucian formation.
Therefore, he paused, and suddenly said softly: "Huabiao returns once every thousand years, and condensate is the top of the snow and the clothes. After listening to the stars and fairy words, they turn their wings and fly to the five clouds."
After reading, the old man said: "A hundred years and a thousand years, vicissitudes of life, time changes, endlessly, why does the queen have to go up and down in these decades of life?
The world has its own bright ruler, creating a new dynasty for thousands of years.
This world is not your world, the queen, but your catastrophe.
The good you want to practice may not be the evil that others will block in the future. Why do you have to do more?
It's better to follow the old way back to the mountains, cultivate into an immortal, and be happy. Why spend your energy and do meaningless things?
Nowadays, when you look at the old Taoism, your spirit, energy and spirit are like being suppressed, like a pearl covered with dust, and you can't shine. "
His words were so contagious that Xia Xiaosu was stunned for a while.
Yes...
For countless years in the world, even if I work hard to be a queen, I can only bless one place,
And now that the family is in charge of the backstage, it is best for them to start a new dynasty.
Furthermore, now that the fire calamity comes from the west, and the Northern Capital is the first to bear the brunt, is there any meaning to all of my actions now?
It's better, just follow the old way to practice in the mountains. I can't say that I can live forever, and I can keep up with my elder brother's footsteps. Instead of being a brother and sister for decades, I will be a relative for a hundred years and a thousand years.
What are you doing?
Her eyes flashed with confusion.
Suddenly, a voice that contained thunder but was still as still as water came from outside.
"Because, you are Xia Xiaosu."
The voice was like a long dragon, and the atmosphere that was brewing in the words of the old man was suddenly shaken, and the queen was also awakened.
Actually, this is not an illusion, but the truth. However, people have their own perseverance and opportunities. They give up their perseverance because of one word. No matter what the road is, it is wrong after all.
If Xia Xiaosu follows the old ways at this time, it will deny everything she has lived since she was a child.
If a person has no past, how can he have a future?
"Because, you are my sister."
The voice followed a figure,
The door of the Golden Palace is wide open,
The sun pierces everything in it.
Many waitresses hurriedly knelt down and half-kneeled to the man walking outside the door, and said respectfully, "See King Shenwu."
Old Dao narrowed his eyes, but he did not turn around.
Xia Jidao: "How about the old Taoist Temple?"
Old Dao closed his eyes and felt it, and then smiled bitterly. He said that Xia Xiaosu was "a pearl covered in dust and must not bloom." At this time, the king of Shenwu was simply a scorching sun. Unable to face it.
If before, he still thought about forcibly taking the queen away, but since Xia Ji came, he has given up this idea.
He sighed softly: "It's the old man who missed the chance, and the queen who missed it. That's it, don't let it go."
After saying that, he turned around and wanted to see what the world-famous King Shenwu looked like.
However, no one was standing behind him.
Lao Dao was stunned for a while, showing shock,
The momentum turned out to be just a phantom condensed by the momentum, so I let myself back down.
No wonder it was designated as the number one odd number by the family.
Old Dao walked out of the palace, and Xia Xiaosu didn't stop him. After all, this old Dao had no ill intentions towards her.
She stared blankly at the phantom in front of the door that had dissipated, and there was a strange sadness in her heart,
It seems that I am getting further and further away from my brother.
That abominable black dragon took away the only opportunity for him to become stronger, the Heavenly Demon Transformation.
...
After Lao Dao left the palace, Xia Ji followed directly.
He directly launched [Nanhua Liuchao-Zangtian Yutian], and put all his power into his heart.
His breath was completely hidden, just like a mortal. Even if the ancestor stood in front of him, it was impossible to find his abnormality if he didn't look carefully, let alone an old man.
Lao Dao went out of the city, and so did he.
As he was walking, the leather scroll contract suddenly sounded again.
It's Hu Xian'er.
"Master, your mother asked why you just came back and disappeared again?"
"Busy."
"Your mother asked if you will come back for dinner tonight?"
Xia Ji swept the surrounding barren mountains, "No."
After a while.
Hu Xian'er suddenly sent another message: "Your mother is asking who I am~IndoMTL.com~Why can I chat with you on the phone? Master, what is phone porridge?"
Xia Ji:...
Hu Xian'er: "Your mother asked me why I only have one meter and one..."
Xia Ji:...
Hu Xian'er: "Your mother said she also wants to have a magic weapon for long-distance calls."
Xia Ji:...
It's better not to let my mother know about the skin roll contract. It's a secret after all.
After thinking about it for a while, I really couldn't explain it to my mother for a while, so Xia Ji responded: "Don't let my mother see you normally."
Hu Xian'er gave an "oh" and then interrupted the chat.
Xia Ji looked forward, Lao Dao was still on his way, and his speed was getting faster and faster. If there was a gust of wind, he easily followed behind.
