Lanruo Temple, isn't this the lair of the tree demon that their army is about to attack
Moreover, the murderer Liu Yidao was chasing a woman. In a place like Lanruo Temple where demons were rampant, where did the woman come from, and the murderer was also there, but he was not eaten by the tree demon.
What's even more surprising is that the scholar in front of him, who looks extremely frail and frail, actually said that he had lived in Lanruo Temple for a few days and found a murderer chasing a woman.
This is incredible no matter how you hear it.
However, the matter was very important, especially the words "Lanruo Temple", which attracted the attention of the four guards, so they did not make things difficult for the scholar.
They just introduced him to the county government office and took him to a remote corridor to wait. The rest of the people quickly reported to Zhong Yu.
When Zhong Yu received the news, he naturally understood who this scholar named Ning Caichen was. Isn't he the protagonist of the story of A Chinese Ghost Story
In the plot of the Dryad Grandma in Guobei County, he can be called the son of luck.
Although the so-called luck is just the way of heaven, humanity and demons, the importance attached to their respective chess pieces is not a real heaven-defying miraculous thing.
But since there is such a saying, there must be a reason for its existence.
In Zhong Yu's eyes, luck is just the material for growth, the source of the plane that can be absorbed.
But in the eyes of people in this world, luck is the importance that Heaven places on a person, and it is an extremely important force.
If Ning Caichen can be mastered and brought to the war to conquer the Dryad, it is very possible to use his luck to suppress the Dryad's luck, thus forming the original story of killing the Dryad and the Black Mountain Old Demon. plot happens.
A deeper explanation is to use the favor of humanity and heaven for Ning Caichen to suppress the demon ways behind the tree demon grandma and the old black mountain demon, so as to gain a certain initiative in strategy, that is, to control the timing.
Although he didn't have such luck, Zhong Yu could still destroy the clones of Grandma Dryad and Old Black Mountain Demon, but he would most likely lose part of his army.
When there are bigger and better choices, this unwise method of losing one's own strength will naturally not be adopted by Zhong Yu.
"Bring Ning Caichen here! I want to see him." Zhong Yu ordered the people around him.
With Zhong Yu's instructions, as the supreme ruler of the empire, any words and deeds ordered by him were always paid attention to and carried out by his subordinates. Ning Caichen was quickly brought here, and the whole process did not take more than ten minutes.
When they arrived at the lobby of the county government office, Zhong Yugao was sitting in the seat where the county magistrate had been. When he was about to approach Ning Caichen, the original anxiety on Ning Caichen's face outside had long since been replaced by a look of fear. Nervous expression.
As early as on the way here, the attendant who came to attract him told Ning Caichen that what he was about to see was the man who now ruled the four eastern provinces of the Ming Dynasty and was still conquering the six southern provinces. It would not take long to His Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Imperial Kingdom, who has been captured, tells him to be careful in his words and deeds, and to maintain great etiquette and respect.
Although Ning Caichen knew that the so-called Emperor of the Great Imperial Kingdom was nothing more than a traitor in front of the orthodox Ming Dynasty, he was especially spurned by a scholar like him.
But facts are stronger than people. Seeing the Ming Dynasty in turmoil, it seems that it may sink at any time.
Instead, the newly emerged Great Royal Kingdom in the past year has become very popular, like the rising sun in the east. It has wiped out the cancer and disadvantages of the original Ming Dynasty in one fell swoop, bringing new vitality and vitality to all the people in the lands newly occupied by the Great Royal Kingdom. hope.
With such an obvious contrast, everyone knows that the rise of the Great Imperial Kingdom can no longer be stopped, and it will not take long for it to become a big country with ten provinces and millions of troops.
And with these strengths, Guo Zuo would not be able to escape for at least several decades.
Under such circumstances, the original rebels naturally became orthodox and the court represented the people's righteousness.
So with enough knowledge, Ning Caichen was naturally extremely nervous about the fact that he was about to meet an emperor, even the emperor of a small country.
"Ning Caichen, a common man, has seen His Majesty the Emperor. Long live His Majesty the Emperor." Since he had not received orthodox training on benefits, Ning Caichen could only learn the etiquette he had seen in the play, and he knelt down three times and kowtowed nine times. Zhong Yu saluted.
"Get up, there aren't so many red tapes here!" Zhong Yu looked at the frightened Ning Caichen below with great interest. He was extremely satisfied with his respectful attitude and asked him to get up with a smile.
When Ning Caichen heard this, he hesitated and stood up, but he couldn't control the trembling all over his body.
"I heard that Ning Caichen stayed at Lanruo Temple and met Yan Chixia."
"Yes, Your Majesty. The villain did meet Yan Chixia, but he is actually the murderer Liu Yidao. Yan Chixia is just a pseudonym. Now Yan Chixia is committing murder in Lanruo Temple and is chasing a girl. Please hurry up, Your Majesty." Send troops to hunt down and rescue." Ning Caichen was asked by Zhong Yu and immediately remembered what he was doing in the county government. The awe he originally felt in his heart also dissipated a lot due to his concern for Nie Xiaoqian, and he quickly begged.
"Okay, you don't have to worry. Yan Chixia is not the murderer Liu Yidao. Liu Yidao has long been hunted down by the county government and has now been sent to serve in the army." Zhong Yu shook his head, stopped and wanted to Ning Caichen said something.
"But why did Yan Chixia chase Xiaoqian? Xiaoqian was just a weak woman. When did she offend Yan Chixia?" Even though he knew Yan Chixia's identity, Ning Caichen still couldn't forget his concern for Nie Xiaoqian.
At this moment, a figure suddenly flew outside the county government office, rushed into the lobby of the county government office, and appeared in front of Zhong Yu and Ning Caichen.
"Who? There is an assassin. Come on, hurry up and protect him!" Countless voices of panic rang out, and then the guards from the county government office rushed out and immediately surrounded the county government office lobby.
Yan Chixia stood in the lobby of the county government office, looking a little surprised.
As a sixth-level cultivation person, his realm has already reached what Taoists call an Earth Immortal in his lifetime.
Now, as soon as he broke into the county government office, he was discovered by the guards in the county government office, and they reacted quickly and surrounded him. How could he not be surprised? This was beyond his original impression of the ability of the government officials.
However, he soon understood that the people surrounding him were not the government officials, but well-trained soldiers, and their strength was unexpectedly strong. They all had the cultivation level of Taoist real people, that is, the fourth level.
"Who are you? How dare you break into His Majesty the Emperor's residence without authorization? What crime should you be punished for?" General Zhao Yun, Zhong Yu's personal guard, pointed his spear at Yan Chixia and shouted sternly.
"Your Majesty, he is the murderer mentioned by the common people." At the same time, Ning Caichen's surprised voice rang out.
