The two people stood side by side, and because their faces could not be seen clearly, he felt an indescribable evil energy surging, but Lin Fengjin's pupils shrank in an instant, because he suddenly saw Cong Yizhuang.
In the small bay at the back, a large number of light spots poured out, which were dots of fireflies that covered the sky, and then they all gathered towards one of the figures!!
That light spot is a firefly.
Ancient books say: Rotten grass turns into fireflies, and rotten flesh turns into maggots.
Fireflies originally live in the rotten mud and can survive by chasing Yin Qi. It can be seen that that figure can actually attract a large number of fireflies to attack, which shows how rich the Yin Qi is in his body!
Thousands of fireflies gather together, and although the light they emit is faint, it shines all around, giving it an eerie beauty.
Under this light, Lin Fengjin saw a familiar face, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly:
"I really hope I'm wrong. Although I guessed that someone in the academy might be involved in this matter, I didn't expect it to be you, not Lupin!"
That familiar face looked so strange at this moment, because he turned out to be Zheng Gong!
Zheng Gong, one of the seven disciples of Tianze Academy!
Zheng Gong is obviously going to take over from Shen Gu!!
Even the scholars of Donglin, who have high eyes on the world, evaluated Zheng Gong as a destined star and a talented Jinshi!!
Zheng Gong is extremely friendly to Lin Fengjin!
However, his appearance in such a place at this time can only mean that these are not the real him! The real Zheng Gong was not really exposed to Lin Fengjin until today!
"Do you know?" Zheng Gong sighed: "When I saw everyone rushing here, it really took a lot of effort to convince Zhenren Meng to stop and bury the deceased.
Leave after collecting the bodies."
At this time, the fireflies had quickly gathered in the palm of Master Meng's hand, and slowly formed the shape of a sword! Zheng Gong then said sadly:
"Junior Brother Lin, originally you and I had feelings for each other before. I really hope I was wrong and it wasn't you! Because what we are doing must not be leaked. Once someone discovers it, we can only silence it.
.”
As Zheng Gong spoke, he pulled out the long sword from his waist. What matters at this time is that when a scholar comes out, he becomes a general, and when he is called into the court, he becomes a prime minister.
What's more, as an introductory disciple of Tianchang Academy, Zheng Gong is highly regarded, so he must have received the true teachings of the academy!
You know, although the reputation of Tianchang Academy is not obvious, Shen Dao, who founded the academy, was definitely a world-famous figure before he retired!
He was also one of the representative disciples of Legalism at that time. He must have studied the secrets in the Legalist classic "Han Feizi". Legalist disciples are also good at cultivating Qi, but it is different from the awe-inspiring Qi cultivated by Confucianism. Legalist disciples
The method of nourishing qi is called "Lawing the world!"
Zheng Gong, on the other hand, has practiced this secret method of Legalism to a small degree!
Zheng Gong held a sword and stared at him, approaching step by step. Not far away there was an evil Taoist Meng! Lin Fengjin's situation at this time can be said to be very bad.
Obviously, both Zheng Gong and Meng Daoren felt that they were sure of the gray-haired young man in front of them. Meng Daoren suddenly said:
"Wait a minute and ask him how he found us. My soul-searching technique consumes a lot of energy. If you can't use it, use it as little as possible."
It is worth mentioning that Taoist Meng did not seem to have considered that Lin Fengjin would not tell the truth at all, because in their impression, almost everyone immediately said everything after facing the terrifying snake ghost.
Inexhaustible, the toughest man can only hold on until the snake ghost eats one of his calves, then he has a nervous breakdown and makes a full confession.
Zheng Gong walked to a place three meters away from Lin Fengjin and said seriously:
"You must have heard what Master Meng just said. I sincerely advise you to speak it out quickly without missing a word. Then, maybe you can suffer less pain before you die."
Obviously, Zheng Gong and Taoist Meng didn't seem to know that their home had been raided.
Lin Fengjin lowered his head and couldn't see his expression clearly. His whole face seemed to melt into the darkness, but his tone sounded a little panicked:
"I, can I pay for my life? I promise not to tell anyone what I saw!"
Zheng Gong smiled:
"Junior brother Lin, you are joking. By the way, you said you had already guessed that someone in the academy was involved in this matter. How did you know?"
Lin Fengjin hesitated and said:
"After I found out that Cui Shijie's case files were destroyed, I kept thinking that destroying the case files was not an easy task. If the people behind the scenes hadn't determined that there must be something leaking in the case files, it wouldn't have been such a big deal.
It’s a lot of trouble.”
Zheng Gong said "Oh":
"so?"
"So it is almost certain that the people behind the scenes must have seen the contents of Cui Shijie's case file with their own eyes before they took action, and there are not many people who can see Cui Shijie's case files with their own eyes. If the people behind the scenes are from the government
If so, then why! You have to use someone else's hand and bribe the scribe to do it yourself. Wouldn't it mean that you are unaware of it?"
Lin Fengjin sighed and said:
"So, the answer is readily available. The only people who are not in the government, but have reasonable access to the case files, are the scholars from Tianchang Academy who often go to the Yamen to assist in copying the books."
"Besides that, what's more obvious is that when I was looking for clues about General Cui, I found it in a collection in the academy. However, that collection also had signs of being flipped before me. Hey
!This is more solid clue that there is a mole in the academy!"
"It's really wonderful!" Zheng Gong said with admiration: "No wonder the old man was alarmed and wanted to take a closer look to see if you are a talent. Unfortunately, no matter how much he admires you, it is useless."
"Perhaps, I can buy my own life with money?" Lin Fengjin suddenly said sincerely: "How about one hundred thousand taels of silver?"
Originally, when the Taoist priest heard the words "buying life with money," he had a look of scorn on his face, but then he took a breath of cold air, and it seemed that Gujing Bubo's eyes suddenly became extremely hot.
stand up:
“One hundred thousand taels of silver??”
Yes, this is the magic of money! Just like the size of a woman's breasts, once it reaches a certain critical point, it will be shocking enough! So Meng Zhenren, who has always played the role of a worldly master, listened.
He couldn't help but said in surprise:
"Where did you get so much money?"
Lin Fengjin immediately said:
"Senior Brother Zheng knows that my family is a grain merchant, and the house outside the academy was purchased by my family for the convenience of my study. This year alone, I made 70,000 to 80,000 taels of silver from selling lychees in Nanli County to Xiangdu.
, there is absolutely no problem in taking out one hundred thousand taels."
But Zheng Gong suddenly stood up and poured cold water on him:
"How are you going to give us these 100,000 taels? With silver taels or silver notes? If you use silver taels, one hundred thousand taels of silver is a full 10,000 catties! How are you going to deliver it? If you use silver notes, I'm afraid there won't be many silver notes of such a large denomination.
A bank can take it out at once."
Lin Fengjin said simply:
"My family has a good relationship with Xiangfan Bank. You should be very familiar with the creditworthiness of the bank notes there."
Zheng Gong stared at Lin Fengjin, and his eyes suddenly bloomed and said word by word:
"No! This is not your character! You are delaying time!"
As soon as Zheng Gong finished saying these words, he drew the long sword from his waist and approached!
But Lin Fengjin had already captured the hesitation and greed of the "Meng Zhenren" after hearing the one hundred thousand taels. He was the kind of person who would never let go once he caught the opponent's weakness, and immediately screamed for help.
Vocal:
"I am the third generation in my family, and I have two hundred thousand taels of silver, two hundred thousand taels of silver!!! My father is willing to go bankrupt in order to save my life!"
"Two hundred thousand taels of silver!!" When this number is smashed down, there are only two types of people who can stay awake in front of this number. The first type of people are those who can easily get two hundred thousand taels of silver!
The second type of people are people who don’t need money at all - they are like dead people and female chrysalis.
Lin Fengjin called out the astonishingly high price of two hundred thousand taels of silver. The purpose was also very simple, that is, to make the real Meng have some scruples when attacking him, so that he would not kill him!
Because Lin Fengjin is worth two hundred thousand taels of silver alive, but he is worthless if he is dead! As long as he hesitates for a moment, the situation of this battle may be completely changed.
Zheng Gong had a serious look on his face at this time. He didn't give Lin Fengjin a chance to speak again. He slashed it down from top to bottom with a "swish" sword. This sword was full of aura and strict laws! It deeply understood the subtle principles of Legalism.
, and what’s even weirder is that stars suddenly shone in the night sky! It seemed to be echoing Zheng Gong’s move.
Immediately afterwards, when the sword was halfway through, there was a faint shining light on it, as if starlight had condensed on it at this moment!
"This is the power of destiny?" Lin Fengjin took a breath of cold air! He looked carefully into the sky, discerned the directions of the heavens, and immediately judged it. Zheng Gong was indeed a person whose destiny was to return to the star, and
His natal star is the tenth star of Nandou, Enguang Star!
Zheng Gong's natal star "En Guang" at this time belongs to the B-category star. In his destiny, he will be helped by noble people and his official career will be prosperous. However, Li Hu's Pojun star is one of the fourteen main stars and looks like the En Guang star.
They are much stronger, but Zheng Gong seems to be deeply blessed by the "En Guang Star" at this time, and he seems to be En Guang's true destiny!
At this time, Zheng Gong went all out to attack, and the natal stars in the sky began to echo with him. Zheng Gong didn't know that Lin Fengjin was the destiny demon star, but the stars in the sky were vaguely aware of it and worked hard to support him, so Zheng Gong
The energy from every part of the body is steaming, and it seems to be in full swing!
