Huo Dong dug his ears, and sighed softly: "Within a radius of ten miles, there are probably eight other acquired masters whose martial arts realm surpasses the 'True Astral Realm' besides me and that kid Lu Zhongji." There are so many people."
The young man surnamed Hua asked curiously: "Besides the four from Qingyun Temple, are there other masters here?"
"That's right," Huo Dong pointed to the villagers in the distance, "The two masters who followed us were hidden among the crowd. Although they could vaguely identify their direction, they hid very well and have never been able to Confirm its exact location."
Then Huo Dong pointed to the two-story building not far across the road and said: "On the second floor there are two acquired masters of the 'True Gang Realm', look at the guards downstairs, one of them should be the 'Yuanshan Escort Bureau' 'Fang Yuanshan, and another person whose identity is unknown..."
After finishing speaking, he pointed to the crowd not far away, "There is also that young couple who are playing tricks, they are also masters of the acquired realm, although they are only in the 'good luck realm', but they practice special skills, which hide their secrets." My aura, if it hadn't been for my young son who was worried about me just now, accidentally leaked the aura, it would be difficult for the old man to find out. Of course, they are not a threat to us with their cultivation base, but with such a cultivation base, But willing to be a juggler wandering around the rivers and lakes, somewhat suspicious..."
The young man surnamed Hua came to his senses and made a gesture, and someone not far away immediately nodded and left.
Huo Dong and the eunuch Liu didn't care about it, as if they had seen the same thing too often. The court masters around him were not just showing off, they were actually spies under the three major divisions. Apart from their high martial arts skills, their investigative skills were always reassuring.
Sure enough, after a while, someone came back, whispered to the young man surnamed Hua, and then retreated with his hands tied.
The young man surnamed Hua had a playful smile on his face, and he leaned over and said, "Mr. Huo, Eunuch Liu, this is a bit interesting... That couple has interesting backgrounds. They are the third-class recorders of the 'Sihai Pavilion' to inquire about news. The spies here are just here to collect some gossip that can be reported..."
Hearing that it was the recorder of "Sihai Pavilion", Mr. Huo and the eunuch Liu had funny expressions. This "Sihai Pavilion" has a very deep background, and the big boss in the backstage, even His Majesty the Emperor, has to be courteous. , obviously very powerful, but he likes to inquire about gossip and trivia in the Jianghu. Compared with the official spies like the three major ministers of the imperial court, it is extremely unscrupulous. The three major divisions are powerful, but they can't provoke these spies who specialize in inquiring about people's bedside affairs.
The young man surnamed Hua smiled, then pointed to the small earthen building opposite and said: "The people in there are even more interesting. One of them must be Fang Yuanshan, and the other is not so simple. If you know his origin, I'm afraid I'm as interested as I am... "
"Who is that?"
"That man's name is Lin Zhengduan..."
"Lin Zhengduan?"
"Yes, the name is ordinary, he is Fang Yuanshan's senior brother, and the power behind him is even more incredible, and it is very interesting..."
"oh?-"
"Iron-flag-gate-"
"Iron Banner Gate??!!"
This time it was Huo Dong and Eunuch Liu's turn to be surprised.
This Iron Banner Sect has always been at odds with Changkong Zhaojian Sect, what does it mean to appear here this time
The eunuch surnamed Liu began to say excitedly: "Recently, I received news that Yang Xingxiong, the gate master of the Iron Banner Gate, broke through the innate realm and entered the 'innate realm'... This Yang Xingxiong has great ambitions, but he has always been bullied by Changkongzhaojianmen. Suppression, this time the strength has increased so much, how can you be content with the status quo... This time I came to spy on Changkong, maybe I have the intention to fight against Changkong Zhaojianmen?"
"Yang Xingxiong is good at forbearance. If he dares to directly confront Changkong Zhaojianmen, I'm afraid he will be a bit high on him..."
Huo Dong said in a deep voice: "Then Yang Xingxiong and Ling Zhaokong are both ruthless characters... I heard that the first thing that Yang Xingxiong did after he entered Xiantian was to call the leader of the 'Kunyang Gang' who had always supported him before. Dong Xingzhong was beaten to death with a single palm and annexed the power of the 'Kunyang Gang'. He is truly a generation of heroes... I really don't know what will happen in Yunzhou if the 'Iron Banner Gate' and the 'Long Sky Shining Sword Gate' are on fire scene."
"What kind of scene? Hmph, it's not like people are dying—" the young man surnamed Hua said with some disgust.
"But it's also beneficial to my court..." The eunuch Liu's eyes flashed.
"You—" The young man surnamed Hua looked angry. These eggless eunuchs don't have anything in their minds except the emperor.
Whether it is Changkongzhaojianmen or Tieqimen, they are all based on the interests of the sect, and have always dismissed the will of the court. The Tieqimen controls the water transportation from Yunzhou to Jingzhou. On the surface, it is a legitimate sect, but in private Selling private salt is no different from gangsters, and it is normal to be hated by the emperor.
"What? Commander Hua, you and I are both serving the emperor, shouldn't you consider the interests of the court first?"
"Liu He—Your idea is too sinister..."
"Hua Zixing, how dare you humiliate miscellaneous families as a sixth-rank commander of Shence Mansion?"
"So what if you're humiliated? I see you servants of the 'Master Attendant' have stayed by the emperor's side for a long time, so you consider yourself the emperor too?"
"That's enough! Brother Hua's words have been taken too far—" Huo Dong, who has always been a good man, suddenly changed his face, and his words were harsher than ever before, and he scolded: "No matter what, everyone is in the same palace as ministers. Doing things for the imperial court, how can we fight each other and mess up the foundation? Besides, what is going on in front of us is something that you and I can control."
Hua Zixing was at a loss for words for a while, and his anger was hard to calm down, but he didn't dare to say any more.
On the other side, the eunuch Liu He had a gloomy face and remained silent, but his eyes were fierce.
The reason why the patrol team formed by the three divisions sent Huo Dong, a highly respected expert, was actually to mediate the conflict between the "Shence Palace" and the "Master Attendant". And Huo Dong has always done a good job, and he showed his hands from time to time, which made the two admire him. Now he has faintly become the core of this small team and the leader of this patrol team.
Huo Dong calmed down his tone, and slowly persuaded: "You and I are here this time, just to watch the excitement, as for the extent of this lively performance, it has nothing to do with you and me..."
"Then what Huo Lao meant..." Hua Zixing asked holding back his anger.
Huo Dong picked up some cold tea, took a sip, and said in a flat tone:
"Wait and see—"
…
There was an internal problem here, and there was a lot of commotion in the dense forest on the other side.
Chen Qingsong and He Qingzhu tightly hugged Tie Qingshi who almost rushed out.
On Tie Qingshi's seemingly honest face, veins popped out, and he was panting angrily.
Taoist Qingyan next to him scolded the Fifth Junior Brother with a funny face: "You said that you are not young anymore, why are you still so bad-tempered, you are going to rush out to shout and kill some children who don't know how deep they are... It's really embarrassing You have endured for so many years without being hacked to death in the Jianghu!"
"Cut me? There are too many bastards who want to cut me. When did Laozi Tie not use his knife? Kaka... just chop..." Tie Qingshi jumped up and down and cursed, even with Chen Qingsong who was hanging on him Back and forth with He Qingzhu. "He counts the swords in the sky, and dares to insult the master. If I hadn't waited for my master's enmity to show up, I couldn't act rashly. I would kill Changkong Mountain and let the old man Ling Zhaokong lick my shoes..."
"Shut up—" Taoist Qingyan's face darkened suddenly, and he shouted angrily, "You have no control over your mouth, what should you say, what should you say, don't you know anything in your head?"
Tie Qingshi was startled, knowing that he had made a slip of the tongue, he finally stopped yelling and scolding, his face turned red, he lowered his head and dared not speak back.
Taoist Qingyan was furious, and said in a deep voice: "If you don't know how to restrain yourself anymore, be careful, I will tell Master to let you stay on the mountain for the rest of your life, so as not to cause trouble for us when you go down the mountain."
Thinking that the second senior brother has always been a human being, maybe he can really do this, Tie Qingshi broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly admitted his mistake: "Yes, yes, junior brother knows his mistake, and junior brother will never dare again..."
…
The atmosphere on the court was still extremely tense, and both sides were at war and refused to back down.
Although Chang Jingwang is good at speaking, he is actually a cowardly character. He is arrogant to death when dealing with people who are obviously inferior to him, but once the opponent shows a desperate attitude, Chang Jingwang dare not do it. He was a few layers above the opponent, and he was already a master of the "Strength Yuan Realm", but when the opponent's momentum became strong, he felt a sudden feeling in his heart, and he dared not go all out.
On the other hand, Chang Jingfan was already impatient with Chang Jingwang's procrastination, and sternly shouted: "Jingwang, since people don't want to sell my Changkongzhaojianmen's face so much, why don't you come forward and ask for advice, see Is this method of Qingyun Temple as powerful as his mouth?"
Chang Jingwang's heart was spinning, but when he looked back, the senior brothers were already full of impatience, while his own brother Chang Jingfan had a gloomy expression, showing that he was extremely dissatisfied with his delay. I thought to myself: my cousin is already dissatisfied with me, and I will still need him to take care of me in the Changkongzhaojian gate in the future, I must not be ashamed here, not to mention, looking at the little Taoist priests on the opposite side, none of them are "strong" "Yuanjing" cultivation base, as long as I perform normally, there will never be any mistakes.
Heartbroken, Chang Jingwang raised his sword and walked to the center of the arena. He slashed at the opposite side, and shouted: "The miscellaneous hairs of Qingyun Temple, come on, let's compete with your grandpa—"
