Qin Xiao immediately stood up, stepped forward to help him up, and said, "Colonel Xuanyuan, please don't misunderstand me. I am not telling you this to hold you accountable."
"General, although Shen Xuangan has a smooth temperament, during these years in Heishan, his subordinates really didn't notice that he had another identity." Xuanyuan Chong blamed himself, "Besides, when Heishan was recruited, he was able to show his strength, so I
I wasn’t too wary of him.”
"Even I didn't expect him to be so secretive." Qin Xiao helped Xuanyuan Chong sit down and said with a smile, "I don't know as well as you about his situation in Montenegro. When he went up the mountain, he should have brought some people with him. In addition,
Having been in the mountains for many years, I naturally have many close friends."
Xuanyuan Chong immediately understood what Qin Xiao meant.
"Don't worry, General. I will investigate his accomplices."
"This matter can only be investigated secretly." Qin Xiaodao, "And don't blame the good people wrongly. In fact, I believe that there must be many people in Heishan and the army who were cultivated by Shen Xuangan, but it cannot be said that they have been cultivated by him.
Bad guys. There are many people who have been recruited by the imperial court and are willing to follow the imperial court, so they may not continue to obey Shen Xuangan."
Gu Baiyi said, "Captain Xuanyuan, what the general means is that Shen Xuangan's confidants can be secretly investigated, but they should not be regarded as people with ulterior motives. If there is conclusive evidence, it is natural to eliminate Long."
Rui Jun, if there is really no big problem with the investigation and testing, there is no need to alarm them."
"My subordinates understand." Xuanyuan Chong said, "It is not difficult to investigate Shen Xuangan's confidants over the years. Captain Zhou and I will make a detailed list in advance and then investigate secretly. In the army, if the general and
General Gu is trustworthy and can be handed over to Zhou Yuanbao. My subordinates will return to Montenegro tomorrow and will naturally handle it properly."
Qin Xiao nodded, and then Xuanyuan Chong cupped his hands and said, "I'll take my leave first."
After Xuanyuan Chong retreated, Qin Xiao looked at Gu Baiyi and said, "Brother, there is something I haven't explained to Xuanyuan Chong." After a pause, he said, "Shen Xuangan is from Dongji Tianzhai!"
Gu Baiyi frowned slightly, and Qin Xiao immediately explained the situation in more detail.
"Dao Zun sent his disciples to Mr. Da." Gu Baiyi stroked his chin and said thoughtfully, "This alone is enough to prove that Mr. Da and Tao Zun are of course very familiar with each other, and the two have a close relationship."
Qin Xiao said, "What is the motive behind Tao Zun sending his disciples to Mr. Da? This is a question I have been thinking about."
"Your idea is right." Gu Baiyi nodded and said, "If you think along this path, you may be able to capture Mr. Da's true identity."
"First of all, we can be sure that Dao Zun did that because he wanted something from Mr. Da." Qin Xiao said seriously, "The first thing that can be ruled out is martial arts. Dao Zun is a great master, and there are countless martial arts records on the island, so he is absolutely
It is impossible that he wants to gain martial arts cultivation from Mr. Da."
Gu Baiyi nodded and said, "I agree. And it's definitely not for money."
"Yes." Qin Xiaodao said, "With Dao Zun's strength, he can get anything in the world that can be obtained with money. Those things that cannot be obtained with money, Dao Zun naturally does not need money. So Dao Zun follows Mr. Da.
What you want from me will not be money."
"Martial arts and money are not needed, so what do you think?"
"Of course she can't be a beauty." Qin Xiao said.
But he was thinking in his heart that if Tao Zun was really a lustful person, with Dongji Tianzhai's strength, it would be easy to find beauties.
Not to mention looking for beauties from outside, the beauty of Zhuque alone is enough to stand out from the crowd. If Taoist Master is a wolf in lust, Suzaku will not be able to escape.
But he and Zhuque were actually married, and knowing that Zhuque's body was like jade and that he was a virgin, it proved that Tao Zun was not a lustful person.
"Besides these, there is only one possibility." Gu Baiyi said, "Dao Zun needs to make use of the power in Mr. Da's hands!"
"Exactly." Qin Xiao said immediately, "I have thought about it, and I am afraid that the only thing Mr. Da is coveted by the Taoist Master is power."
Gu Baiyi was thoughtful, pondered for a moment, and then said, "From this point of view, Mr. Da is a man with great power, and his power can achieve Tao Zun's purpose."
"That's right." Qin Xiao said, "Brother, let's not analyze what kind of power Mr. Da has in his hands. Do you think there is anything that, as the Taoist Grand Master, he cannot do on his own and needs to rely on the power of others to achieve his goals?
"
Gu Baiyi touched his chin lightly, thoughtfully.
It was snowing heavily outside, but there was a fire burning in the tent and a teapot on the stove. At this moment, the tea was boiling. Qin Xiao immediately got up and went over, picked up the teapot and put it aside.
"Although it is impossible to understand what Tao Zun is thinking, in my opinion, Tao Zun should have two wishes in his life." Gu Baiyi said, "The first is naturally to enter the Wutian realm in martial arts and become the strongest in martial arts in the world.
However, this cannot be affected by power."
"What is your other long-cherished wish?"
"Let Dongji Tianzhai unify the Taoism and become the state religion of the Tang Dynasty." Gu Baiyi said slowly, "The state religion I am talking about does not mean that the Taoism becomes a vassal of the imperial power. Just like the emperor today worships the Taoism, but we all know that the emperor cannot do anything but
She wants to use the Taoist sect to refine medicine for her. She wants to live forever, but she doesn’t really fear the Taoist sect in her bones.”
Qin Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, Taoism is just a tool used by saints."
"Tao Zun's thoughts are completely different." Gu Baiyi said calmly, "Not only does he want to unify Taoism, but he also wants to make Taoism a state religion and control the world." Although his expression was calm, his eyes were quite cold, and he said slowly, "He wants to make Taoism a national religion and control the world."
The Taoist sect is above the imperial power!"
Qin Xiao had known for a long time that Dao Zun wanted to revitalize the Taoist sect, but only now did he realize that Dao Zun's thoughts were far beyond his imagination.
According to Gu Baiyi, Tao Zun actually wanted Datang to become a clerical state.
"Although he is a great master, if he wants to achieve such a goal, it can only be wishful thinking." Qin Xiao frowned and said, "I don't know if there is a great master in the world. He wants to put Taoism above the imperial power. Other great masters will definitely not
promise."
Gu Baiyi nodded and said, "That's natural. In fact, the most important thing is not that the other great masters don't agree, but that with the strength of Dongji Tianzhai, it may be possible to unify the Taoist sect, but we must really make Dongji Tianzhai a country."
It is almost impossible to then control the world." He paused and sighed, "But the people who can become great masters are persistent people with a perseverance that is beyond human experience. It's okay that Dao Zun has passed away now.
, but when he was alive, he must have tried his best to achieve his goals."
"Brother, according to this statement, is Mr. Da capable of helping him realize his wish?" Qin Xiao asked doubtfully.
Gu Baiyi smiled and said, "What kind of person is Dao Zun? If he doesn't have any confidence, how can he act rashly? Since he can send his disciples to Mr. Da's command, it proves that Dao Zun still recognizes Mr. Da's strength. At least for Dao Zun
It seems that Mr. Da may really be able to help him realize his long-cherished wish."
Qin Xiao said in shock, "Brother, according to this, Mr. Da's strength is stronger than I expected." He frowned, thought for a moment, and then said, "Even the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty can never let the Taoist sect overpower him.
Above the imperial power, in the whole world, there is only one person who can do this."
"Emperor!"
"That's right." Qin Xiao nodded and said, "Unless the emperor is willing to let the Taoist sect ride on his head, no one can let the Taoist sect control the world. But how can any emperor take the initiative to let other forces put pressure on the imperial power? This is not true.
It’s all unreasonable.” He shook his head and said, “And of course a saint cannot be a great gentleman.”
Gu Baiyi's brows relaxed slightly, and he smiled and said, "You are right. Power is the most powerful poison in the world. Once a person has power, he will do his best to eliminate everyone who threatens his power. Today's world is a
She is infatuated with powerful people, and she will never let anyone be above her."
"So Mr. Da naturally has someone else." Qin Xiao's eyes twitched, and he felt more and more incredible, "And that person's power is actually comparable to that of the Emperor?"
Gu Baiyi stood up, went over to get the teapot, walked back, poured a cup of hot water for Qin Xiao, and poured a cup for himself, then put down the teapot and looked at Qin Xiaodao: "It seems that the general is visiting the grassland, so
It was a great harvest. Because the existence of Shen Xuangan allowed us to finally catch the clues of Mr. Da."
"Brother, can you guess who Mr. Big is?"
"I'm not that powerful." Gu Baiyi said with a smile, "I just suddenly understood that although Mr. Da is not the emperor today, if Mr. Da takes the position of emperor, he can naturally help Taoist Master realize his long-cherished wish." He held a cup and drank.
After taking a sip of water, he said, "If I'm not wrong, Dao Zun and Mr. Da each have what they need. Mr. Da needs Dao Zun's help to help him sit on the throne, while Dao Zun needs Mr. Da to achieve Taoism after becoming the emperor."
The world’s long-cherished wishes.”
Qin Xiao was thoughtful, and after a long time, he finally said, "I understand."
"Understand what?" Gu Baiyi was a little curious.
"There is something I forgot to tell you before." Qin Xiaodao, "I once talked to Tianzhai's first disciple Zhuque about Dao Zun's motives for causing trouble in Kyoto. According to Zhu Que, what Dao Zun did in Kyoto was not for himself.
I don’t want to be the emperor, but I want to support a new king to ascend the throne.”
"Support the new king?"
"Yes." Qin Xiao nodded and said, "And Zhuque said personally that Dao Zun has a candidate to support, and that person is a pure bloodline of the Li family, but Suzaku doesn't know that person's true identity. Zhuque is Dao Zun's first disciple.
, she is highly respected and trusted by Dao Zun, and what she said from her mouth will not be false." Staring into Gu Baiyi's eyes, she said word by word, "I finally understand now that the person Dao Zun wants to support should be Da.
