Chapter 12 The great emperor of the common people is also a slave, just like asking for a holy order in a fight
"try to find!"
“Look for it if you can’t find it!”
"I only give you time for a cup of tea. Find out all the information about Lai Xiaoxiao, no matter how big or small!"
The commander-in-chief of the foreign department was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth in front of the busy figures, and finally slapped his token on the table:
"If you don't have enough authority, use this one. If you still can't find it, just ask!"
"So many people saw what happened in the Southern Territory back then, and the news cannot be blocked!"
"Use your energy to directly interrogate those who are not dead, and dig up graves for those who are dead... No matter how serious the situation is, I want to know first-hand information, whether it is true or false. Give me an answer, do you understand?"
"Yes!" No one in the chief rudder raised his head, but the response was extremely neat. Everyone was still busy with their own affairs, contacting the southern region, which was the most difficult area for intelligence intrusion.
"Sir, I have a question..." Someone raised his head from a pile of jade slips.
"explain!"
"Wouldn't it be better if we found Nian Shouzuo first? Anyway, Master Shou asked her to deliver the message, not us..."
"Are you a pig?" Xi picked up a handful of jade slips and threw them over, cursing:
"Xu Xiaoshou almost couldn't find Nian, can you find it in a short time?"
"If she really wanted to send a message, why would she just disappear after coming out?"
"They made it clear that they didn't want to wade into this muddy water, so they pointed their fingers at us!"
"It's easier to find her than to dig up old stories, not to mention the common people are involved..." Someone muttered.
Xi Leng looked away, opened his mouth, and finally sighed deeply, his tone softened, just like the Taoist Palace Master used to explain to his pig-brained self, he explained to many pig-brained people around him:
"Now, it's not just about spreading the word."
"The Great Emperor of Cangsheng is our last hope for the Holy Mountain. Whether he has an affair with the Lei family or the Holy Slaves is related to the outcome of the war after Xu Xiaoshou came out of the ruins..."
"The other departments must have first-hand information and prepare in advance. Xu Xiaoshou revealed too much information in one sentence!"
"Maybe he is deceiving us and using counter-intuitive measures to increase our workload!" Someone said while holding his breath.
"Yes!" Xi looked over with a cold expression, "But what if?"
At this time, the entire headquarters of the foreign department fell silent.
Xi pointed at his feet and said solemnly: "Since we have chosen to work here, we are prepared just in case. The Taoist Palace Master has left, and now we have to rely on ourselves. If we can't do it, we just pack up and leave!"
Dead silence.
All that was left around was the hustle and bustle and the sound of bursts of communication beads leading to the Southern Territory.
"First seat!"
Not long after, an old man with gray hair and a beard came out of the innermost room holding a pile of jade slips and said, "There are results."
The whole headquarters fell silent.
But for a moment, everyone continued to do their own thing, but their ears stood up high, like a group of rabbits.
"Pick the key points. You know what I want to hear." Xi didn't have time to look at each jade slip. He had to finish listening quickly and report to Lord Cangsheng.
"yes!"
The bearded old man nodded, turned around and glared back at the gossip rabbits with stretched necks behind him, and then said:
"First, Lei Xiaoxiao has confirmed that she died long before the Lei family was destroyed, and there is no possibility of resurrection. The Eye of the Great Dao did come from her, but it was not taken by force, it was actually a gift."
Xi Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Second, in terms of blood relationship, Lei Xiaoxiao is Lei Xi'er's aunt, but when she died, Lei Xi'er's brother and sister were not yet born, so the possibility of a close relationship between them is ruled out... Lord Cangsheng used this to contact the Holy Slave The probability is also infinitely close to zero.”
Xi breathed a sigh of relief.
"Third, Lei Xiaoxiao has a good relationship with the Lei family. It can even be said to be 'very good'. There is no rebellion. She ran away from home. The story of the eldest daughter's princess disease, but she died before the Lei family was destroyed... In Lei Xiaoxiao's body During the period when the Yun and Lei families were destroyed, Lord Cangsheng’s attitude towards the Lei family was... He occasionally took care of them!"
Crunch——
The rabbit intelligence agent behind him suddenly fell off his chair, and the wooden chair scraped against the stone floor with a harsh sound that made people stand up.
Everyone was shocked.
"Sorry sorry sorry..."
The intelligence officer who had caused the accident turned green. He grabbed his head and buried it in a pile of jade slips at work, never daring to look up again.
"call."
Xi Changchang took a deep breath, and his heartbeat was still a little accelerated.
What he was most worried about finally came to pass!
The relationship between the Emperor Cangsheng and the Lei family...
good?
So those arrows he fired in anger at the Shenghuan Temple at that time also had some personal emotions in them?
The ridicule makes people numb.
He really didn't want to know the reason for this, and he really didn't want to pay attention to it.
It just so happens that he is the leader of the different divisions!
What if the "what if" I imagined was true...
What if Lord Cangsheng really colludes with the Holy Slave secretly, and the ANBU loses the upper hand in intelligence...
"The Holy Emperor was ambushed and stabbed in the back?"
"Shouye climbs the mountain, with the help of evil sin?"
"With swords and arrows combined, ten old men will be killed?"
The above situation does not even need to happen, there only needs to be a little sign of it, and the foreign department did not expect it at all.
Then his position as the leader is dereliction of duty!
At this moment, Xi looked calm on the outside, but was already crying in his arms inside.
Wow, Taoist Palace Master, help me...
My brain is on fire...
Want to get a new one...
Tianji brain...
"but!"
The bearded man changed the subject.
Xi's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had risen from hell to heaven, and slapped him with his backhand, "Can't you finish it all at once?"
Eh?
Something seems wrong?
Why does this picture look familiar?
With a "snap", the bearded old man got a slap on his head and said aggrievedly:
"Sir, don't be too happy too early. This is very insignificant... However, although Mr. Cangsheng is taking care of Fu Lei's family, it is only within the scope of normal, reasonable, and no violation of rules."
"He did not take advantage of his position to open a back door for the Lei family; nor was he biased in the allocation of resources..."
"Compared with his complete disregard for the forces of other families, he met the head of the Lei family three times on the Holy Mountain..."
Three sides?
Xi's heart sank again and again.
"but!"
The bearded man hurriedly added: "There are outsiders present at these three meetings. It is not a private meeting, nor is there any conspiracy."
The Lei family did not plot anything.
It is the one that is destroyed.
Xi was silent for a long time and asked: "Lord Cangsheng, have you found any bad deeds about him?"
"Absolutely not!"
The bearded man shook his head very simply this time:
"Anyone can find something. Even the master of the Dao Palace used power to make No. 2 the divine envoy. He has bad deeds."
"The sinful bow of Lord Commoners has saved countless people in red and white from water and fire in the past few decades. He has only merit and no fault. He has a breeze on his sleeves and no bad deeds."
No one is perfect?
No! Master Cang Sheng is a perfect person!
In the eyes of the bearded man, in the eyes of all the intelligence workers in the foreign department, and even in the eyes of Xi...
In fact, everyone knows that Lord Cangsheng can't find anything.
As long as he can find out even a little bit of bad deeds, it is impossible for him to hold the position of the Three Emperors for so long with the posture of ten thrones and the surname of a foreign race!
The sky of Guizhe Holy Mountain may collapse, but the common people will never collapse.
The Taoist Palace Master can defect to the Holy Mountain, and the common people will always be worthy of their faith.
Xi thought of a question he had asked when he was pushing Mr. Cangsheng's wheelchair. It seemed that his loyalty was not to the Holy Temple!
"Throw aside reason..."
Xi looked at the bearded man, "Do you personally think that Lord Commoners will betray the Holy Mountain?"
The bearded old man raised his hands to his ears, his face turned red:
"If the Great Emperor of the People has an affair with a Holy Slave, even just a little bit, I will stand on my head and swallow feces!"
…
"He said, seven, represents separation..."
"He said that if there is no moon, we will gather together on the Chinese Valentine's Day, but if there is a Chinese Valentine's Day, people will tear apart."
"He also asked us to tell you that considering the word 'tears', it is not too late to abandon darkness and turn to light."
Xi swallowed his saliva and lowered his head, "These are the exact words."
Love the common people and look at the sky quietly.
Xi waited for a long time in silence, then raised his eyes and saw such a clear "absence" on Emperor Cangsheng's face for the first time.
His eyes, which only had the power to express emotions without humanity, were no longer indifferent or cold, but now contained extremely complex emotions.
What kind of emotion is that...
Xi can't understand.
After all, he hasn't been in love yet.
Love swordsmanship is the most difficult ancient swordsmanship to practice, and love is the most complex of the seven human emotions and six desires.
Even more tragic.
And this is just a part of the love swordsmanship...
Xi's thoughts flew to the horizon. There was only sword in his world, and he could not enter the heart of the Great Emperor.
"do you know?"
Ai Cangsheng suddenly spoke, her voice was extremely soothing and soft, "She once told me that if..."
When I looked back, I saw the wide-eyed face in front of me, full of curiosity and desire to listen, but it was an extremely young face.
Ai Cangsheng's eyes turned cold, and he almost burst out with murderous intent, but finally became indifferent and spoke calmly:
"Have you found Dao Qiongcang?"
ah?
So ridiculous.
No, say it! Say it quickly!
I was listening, why did I suddenly swallow the words just like the Taoist Palace Master?
Isn’t this torture?
"not yet."
Xi could only return to business and said earnestly: "The Southern Territory is indeed not peaceful recently. We have also checked the situation that you mentioned that there are too many Tianji Warlocks. The main reason is the rise of a 'Tianji Divine Sect'."
Tianji Divine Sect?
Ai Cangsheng's eyes flashed slightly.
Dao Qiongcang had mentioned this force to him, and the two of them even made a special trip to chat about the future of Tianji Technique because of this.
Dao Qiongcang said that this Tianji Divine Sect is not his.
He also said that because the Five Holy Emperors' families were suspicious, he simply supported them secretly to confuse the public.
He also said that in fact, he had been paying attention to the development of Tianjishu in the Southern Region for a long time. He believed that the rise of Tianji Divine Sect was inevitable, and he had inserted chess pieces into it early on.
He also said that this Tianji Divine Sect was created by him, and when the time comes, he will sink into the water and also surface.
Ai Cangsheng has no idea which of the words of the coquettish old man is true and which is false, which is a joke and which is serious.
But in the past, he didn't pay much attention to the Tianji Divine Sect, because Dao Qiongang could just keep an eye on it.
Now that Xi You mentioned it, all the memories came flooding back...
Ai Cangsheng was instantly sure that Dao Qiongcang was definitely related to this sect - he wouldn't have laid so much groundwork for something unrelated!
but……
How could a smart person like him dive underwater and join such a bright and obvious "Tianji Divine Sect" with such a ostentatious name?
Ai Cangsheng frowned, and after pondering to no avail, he casually asked: "Who is the leader of this Tianji Divine Sect?"
Xi Zhengse said: "The latest information is that their leader's name is 'Nangong Youshu'."
Nangong Youshu...
Ai Cangsheng's eyes lit up with the light of the avenue, and he looked towards the Southern Territory, not knowing what he was searching for.
Xi waited quietly. He didn't know what Lord Cangsheng was thinking of.
After a long time, Ai Cangsheng took his eyes back, looked at the sky again, and said slowly:
"Are you saying that there is only one real person in the Taoist department, Yu Zhiwen?"
"……right."
"The rest are all Dao Qiongang?"
"Yes, at least this is the judgment of the Master of Xuanji Palace."
Ai Cangsheng was silent for a long time after hearing this, and then said: "Then do you think that Situ Yongren, the number one person on the heavenly list who died in the Void Island in the Taoist war, is a real person or a fake?"
Xi's head buzzed and he froze on the spot, his pupils dilated.
no……
this……
this?!
There have been too many things going on recently, with the palace master changing again and again, so Xi didn't think about this issue carefully.
This time, I was so frightened when I thought about it. The hair on Xi's whole body stood up.
He and Situ Yongren grew up together...
They had many encounters on the Holy Mountain...
As one of the few outstanding peers, Xi and Situ Yongren also have their own small circle...
but!
Xi Meng trembled.
He then thought that he was just a mediocre Situ who had taught others such horror, and that "one-person Taoist priest"...
"What do you mean..." Xi said as he made a decision. He would go to the Taoist Ministry to see Yu Zhiwen later. People's hearts can be hurt or even die.
Ai Cangsheng said: "Nangong Youshu, Situ Yongren, don't you think these names are all Taoist?"
"Are they all Dao Palace Masters?" Xi finally came to his senses, with some disbelief in his eyes. That Tianji Divine Sect also...
etc!
Suddenly there are so many Tianji Warlocks in the Southern Territory...
"Pfft...ahem!"
Xi suddenly choked on his own saliva, "Sorry!"
No, no, even if you have one person's Taoist Department, you can't have one person's Southern Territory, right?
Xi felt a chill in the back of his head.
The Taoist Palace Master is gone.
The Taoist Palace Master is everywhere.
The Taoist Palace Master is simply scarier than a nightmare!
He looked at Emperor Cangsheng, who actually had a flash of confusion in his eyes, and murmured to himself:
"But he can be guessed so easily by you and me. Is he still Dao Qiongang?"
Click——
Xi Shihua was on the spot and his whole person was in a mess.
Yes, even I can guess what the Palace Master said...
No, what am I thinking, why should I?
"This should be an illusion." Xi said firmly.
Ai Cangsheng said nothing, turned his head and glanced at him lightly.
"I take back this sentence!" Xi collapsed!
It’s over!
I dreamed tonight, not only Xu Xiaoshou, but also the Taoist Palace Master!
Situ Yongren? Nangong Youshu? Tianji Shenjiao? Daobu, Nanyu, Daoqiongang... Wait, Lord Cangsheng stays here to guard the Holy Mountain, will he also...
"Forget it."
Ai Cangsheng looked at the young man whose eyes were suddenly filled with bloodshot eyes: "Check the Tianji Divine Sect, no matter what the result is... No, you don't need to produce the results, just leave all the investigation processes to me."
"yes……"
Xi didn't do anything and was already a little exhausted mentally and physically.
If it is the one who is making the layout, does it make sense if the other department finds out something?
What you get is just what he wants to show you...
Xi scratched his head.
Damn it!
My hair is falling out again!
He raised his eyes in fear: "So we not only have to fight Xu Xiaoshou, but we also have to fight the Taoist Palace Master head-on?" Ah! Kill me!
It's not completely impossible... Ai Cangsheng pondered for a moment, and an unpredictable smile appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"Like a fight."
Xi almost fell to the ground softly.
Don't make trouble, you can't be the Dao Palace Master too!
"How about we stop checking?" Xi suggested sincerely, "The Taoist Palace Master once told me that if there is a sealed box and you don't know if there is danger inside, and you don't open it, the probability is 50 to 50.
Open, you opened it..."
"It will open eventually."
"But if we don't touch it, at least for the time being we won't be in danger... We can't face Xu Xiaoshou and also think about how to deal with the Dao Palace Master at the same time, right? We don't have the energy, Lord Cangsheng!"
"But we are the Holy Temple."
When this sentence came out, Xi was stunned. His response was stuck in his throat and he could only stare blankly at the Great Emperor.
Ai Cangsheng looked at the sky and the five realms, and continued to say calmly:
"You are a holy slave. You don't have to open the box of Xu Yue Gray Palace, the box of King of Hell, or other boxes that you don't want to touch or face."
"You can only do what you are sure of. You can only open the Void Island and the Ranming Ruins. You can only benefit and not suffer any harm."
"But you are the Holy Temple, so you must be prepared to have your whole body affected by a single move."
"What you have to think about is not to avoid the black boxes you don't want to open, but to take the initiative to touch them all, even if the box bites off your hand when opened."
Ai Cangsheng said, turning his gaze to the young man in front of him:
"You said if the box is not opened, the probability is five to five."
"But you don't want to think about whether Xu Xiaoshou came out of the ruins and set foot on the Holy Mountain, Dao Qiongcang would just take advantage of the situation and lead the Tianji Divine Sect to help Yuanxiang."
"I would rather deceive myself than open the box. It is not the box in front of you, it is the cage that traps you."
Xi's body was shaken and he was sweating coldly.
Ai Cangsheng paused, turned his eyes to the distance, and said softly:
"Indeed, the words 'Dao Qiongang' carry a very heavy weight. No one would be willing to face it if they could, let alone people like you and me who have personally experienced his power."
"But even if I don't practice swordsmanship, I still know..."
"In the art of swordsmanship, what you are practicing is not the divine Buddha at your eyes, but the Buddha without gods at your eyes."
Xi shook his body and clenched his palms tightly, full of sweat.
Ai Cangsheng did not continue.
But he knew that after following the Dao Palace Master for a while, a demon seed was planted in his heart!
"Thank you Lord Cangsheng for your guidance." Xi was sincerely grateful, but then he thought about how the other tribes would face the Holy Slave and the Taoist Palace Master, and his eyes dimmed again.
"Tianji Divine Sect, the different departments will definitely investigate thoroughly!" Xi asked for instructions, "But where is the ruins of the God-killing Officer?"
“Issue the ‘Invitation Order’!”
Ai Cangsheng waved his hand and said, "All the half-saints who can move are thrown into the Ranming Ruins. We can't sit back and wait for death. Whoever can kick them out of the Ranming Ruins will be the hero." ()
