Gao Qiu walked quickly down from the top of the mountain and reached the mountain gate in a very short time. At this moment, Song Lian, the commander of the city of gods, only walked a few dozen steps on the mountain road.
From afar, Gao Qiu clasped his fists and laughed and said: "Commander Song, I have heard of his name for a long time, but it is a pity that we can meet each other today. Commander Song is coming to Yinshan, and it will make Yinshan Pengpi shine brightly!"
As a monk who forgets all worries and is also the leader of a sect, Gao Qiu's words and demeanor mean that he has lowered his stature extremely low. This is something that no one can fault.
As the saying goes, don't hit someone with a smiling face. This is the truth.
Song Lian forced out a smile and said, "I have met Sect Master Gao."
Compared with Gao Qiu, who is smooth and smooth in dealing with things, Song Lian is obviously a little unhappy at this moment, but this is also due to Song Lian's nature. He is not the kind of person who is smooth in dealing with things.
Mai, if it were another yamen, I'm afraid I don't know how many hidden losses I have suffered and how many small shoes I have worn.
Gao Qiu could clearly see that Song Lian was not very happy, but he kept his expression and just smiled and said: "I really didn't expect that the Governor would send Commander Song here. On my 300th birthday, I shouldn't have alerted the Governor."
of."
Song Lian said bluntly: "Since there shouldn't be any alarm, why send the invitation to the capital of the gods? Without it, I wouldn't have to come here."
Gao Qiu didn't expect Song Lian to be so straightforward, so he was a little embarrassed for a moment. However, the leader of the Qiu Sheng Sect thought for a moment and smiled: "Such things always have to be reported to the capital. Lord Guardian, you can't
Come on, I still dare not say anything."
Song Lian stared at the high hill in front of him and frowned: "If that's the case, then why can't you see a disciple of the Qiu Sheng Sect on top of the northern city?!"
Hearing the obvious accusation from the commander of the Divine Capital, Gao Qiu felt completely relieved. He first acted a little ashamed, and then said softly: "Qiu Sheng Sect was newly built, and many things have been piled up, so before
We didn’t have any time to spare during that war, but we have discussed it with the second sect leader before we proceed. If the war breaks out again, there will be no less than a hundred people from the Qiu Sheng Sect rushing to the north."
Sure enough, after hearing this, Song Lian's expression became less serious than before. He raised his eyebrows and said, "Really?"
Gao Qiu laughed and said: "How dare you deceive Commander Song?"
Song Lian smiled and said: "Second Master Gao really still has a patriotic heart. I asked you why the governor has such a heavy workload that I have to come to Yinshan Mountain."
Gao Qiu smiled and said intentionally or unintentionally: "It would be better if the guardian envoy could come in person, but having Commander Song here is also a great thing."
Song Lian also looked at Gao Qiu meaningfully and said, "You can also have expectations. They are all uncertain things."
Gao Qiu smiled slightly, and when Song Lian said this, he felt a lot more at ease.
After that, he led Song Lian to the reception hall on the top of the mountain. Gao Qiu smiled loudly and said to the sect leaders who came to celebrate their birthdays: "Everyone, this is Lord Song Lian, the commander of the city of gods!"
When Gao Qiu said this, everyone stood up to greet him. Compared with Gao Qiu of the Qiu Sheng Sect, Song Lian, whose status in the guardian envoy lineage was second only to that of the guardian envoy of the Chen Dynasty, was actually much more important.
If you offend Gao Qiu, it won't be a big problem.
But if he offends Song Lian in front of him and the guardian envoy behind Song Lian, it will be a big problem.
Song Lian cupped his fists and returned the salute, smiling: "I, like all of you, are here to celebrate the birthday of Sect Master Gao. You don't have to be formal."
Many sect leaders said yes one after another, and they were all smiling at this moment.
Regardless of whether Gao is happy or not, don't be unhappy in front of this commander, that's for sure.
Gao Qiu smiled and said, "Commander Song, please."
He wanted to lead Song Lian to the banquet, but many people found it strange because the commander of the divine capital of Daliang went up the mountain alone, and it seemed that he did not bring any birthday gifts.
Although the Qiu Sheng Sect couldn't tell whether to send it as a gift or not, but the most basic etiquette should be followed, right?
Song Lian was about to follow Gao Qiu to the table, when suddenly, a figure jumped out from the crowd, knelt down directly behind Song Lian, and said loudly: "Sir Commander Song, Qiu Shengzong Zhao Wuyan has something to report!"
This voice surprised everyone present. Gao Qiu was the first to react and said angrily: "Zhao Wuyan, what are you talking nonsense here?!"
Gao Qiu turned around and looked at Song Lian with an embarrassed look. Just as he was about to speak, Song Lian waved his hand.
Song Lian turned around with great interest, looked at Zhao Wuyan in front of him curiously, and asked: "Zhao Wuyan? What do you want to report to me? Is there another demon giant who is causing trouble in Yingzhou?"
Zhao Wuyan glanced at Song Lian, gritted his teeth, as if he had made some kind of determination, and then said: "I want to accuse the Qiu Sheng Sect of colluding with the demon clan and provide the demon clan with my military intelligence!"
Saying this simple sentence, it was as if a huge stone was dropped on the calm lake.
Shocking waves!
Gao Qiu's expression changed, "Do you know what nonsense you are talking about?!"
He thought to himself that everyone in the Qiu Sheng Sect was under his control, even Zhao Wuyan was like this, but he never thought that Zhao Wuyan would jump out and say such a sentence.
"As a disciple of the Qiu Sheng Sect, Wu Yan shouldn't have done this, but Wu Yan is also a citizen of Daliang. If he knew the sect was doing such a thing but didn't report it, then he doesn't deserve to be called a citizen of Daliang!"
Zhao Wuyan knelt on the ground, his face full of determination.
Song Lian said coldly: "Zhao Wuyan, do you know that a complaint requires evidence. It's not just someone who comes here to talk nonsense. The imperial court has its laws and regulations. It will not wrongly accuse any good person, nor will it let anyone go."
Any bad guy."
After saying these words, Song Lian turned around and glanced at Gao Qiu, "Sect Master Gao, is this what you mean?"
Gao Qiu laughed and said, "Commander Mingjian of the Song Dynasty, how could our Qiu Sheng Sect do such a thing?"
Song Lian asked suspiciously: "Then how could he speak like this?"
"I don't know anything about this. Maybe I suffered some grievances in the mountains. I don't know for sure. This sect is big and there are too many people. Even if many things are done right under your nose, you are still negligent."
Song Lian nodded and said with a smile: "It makes sense. Whether you are in charge of a sect or a yamen, it is the same. You cannot micromanage everything."
Gao Qiu and Song Lian chatted here, so that the atmosphere was not so cold, and the other sect monks present did not feel that the matter was serious.
Gao Qiu glanced at Zhao Wuyan. Although he didn't know why this guy ran out, he wasn't really worried at the moment, because there were some things that he had never left to Zhao Wuyan, so it was impossible for him to know.
"Zhao Wuyan, since you want to file a lawsuit, then show the evidence to me. If there is evidence, I will naturally handle it."
Song Lian looked at Zhao Wuyan and narrowed his eyes. There was no emotion in this middle-aged man's eyes.
Zhao Wuyan was already prepared and took out a stack of letters from his arms, "Commander Song, this is the letter between Gaoqiu and the demon clan. It is clearly recorded in it. In addition, there is a big demon somewhere in the back mountain."
exist!"
When these words were spoken again, everyone present was extremely shocked. If those letters could be faked, then there was a big demon here. If it was verified, nothing could be done about it.
Song Lian took the letter, glanced at it a few times, raised his eyebrows slightly, and then when everyone was looking at him, he tried hard to put on a sad expression, "How can a Qiu Sheng Sect do such a thing?
"
Gao Qiu frowned. He didn't expect that Zhao Wuyan actually knew about what happened in the mountain, and he actually had evidence. He was a little confused, but in fact, many people in the crowd had already understood what happened today.
Otherwise, it’s just that damn Song Lian’s expression, it’s too… damn fake!
It's obvious that this guy seemed to know about this beforehand...right?
However, many people still find it shocking. No one expected what happened today to change so easily and directly.
Gao Qiu was about to speak when suddenly a Yin mountain shook for no reason.
This is not any boring description or exaggeration, but a solid statement.
Because the bowls and chopsticks on the table were beating slightly at this moment.
It was obvious that a Yinshan mountain was shaking.
Song Lian smiled and said: "Don't panic, everyone, this is the birthday gift I brought to Sect Leader Gao!"
Birthday gift?
Who still believes at this moment that Song Lian will come with birthday gifts?
Besides, what kind of birthday gift would be like this?
"Reporting to the sect master, at the foot of the mountain... at the foot of the mountain... a cavalry army came. At this moment, the horse is jumping up the mountain!"
A disciple came here in a panic and reported the matter to Gaoqiu while trembling all over.
Gao Qiu looked at Song Lian, with mixed emotions in his eyes. At this time, he no longer had any hope, and it was a certainty that the matter would be exposed.
"Commander Song, it's really a good idea, but he also mobilized all the border troops for this?"
Song Lian smiled slightly, "Actually, the most angry people about this kind of thing are not us, but them. They risked their lives for you in the north, but there are people who are crazy and stabbing in the back. I am also angry, so I will take advantage of this opportunity."
If there is no war, it is reasonable to come and take a look."
Gao Qiu laughed angrily and said: "Okay, okay, but even if my Yinshan mountain is going to be destroyed, Gao Mou may not necessarily die here!"
Song Lian rolled up his sleeves and said, "I just want to try it out to see what kind of level Wangyou Dudu, the demon clan leader Gao Zongzhu helped pull up, is at and how many punches I can withstand!"
…
…
On the mountain road of Yinshan Mountain, there were cavalry troops leaping up the mountain, and the sound of horse hooves was heard. The monks of the Qiu Sheng Sect saw the group of uninvited guests, but at this moment, no one dared to step forward to stop them.
Not only because these people are obviously members of the imperial army, but also because these people have so much bloody smell on their bodies.
It was as if every knight had stepped out of that mountain of corpses and sea of blood.
