"you!"
Manager Sun of the Yao Mansion suddenly looked ugly. He looked around at the Baizhan Sword Holders who were filled with evil aura like a pack of wolves, and then at the envoys of the Shenglan Tribe beside him.
His expression changed, and he cried out in his heart.
In fact, he didn't want to come this time. After all, he took the Shenglan tribe to the Sword Holder Palace to arrest the sword holder. The matter itself was outrageous, but the Marquis gave him an order to make sure that the Shenglan tribe came to visit the envoys.
Satisfied, so I can only grit my teeth at this moment,
There was a fierce gleam in his eyes.
"The Marquis has an order to capture the five Kong Xianglongs!"
Deacon Sima frowned, while the black-clothed guard from the Shenglan clan lost some of his gloominess and smiled slightly, with a profound light flashing in his eyes.
This time he came here with the envoys from his clan. In fact, it was a lie to find trouble with Kong Xianglong and others. His real mission was to observe the Yao family.
From the beginning to the end, he was observing the expressions of all the cultivators of the Yao family, not sparing any one of them, and even using secret methods to verify whether they were deliberately acting.
At this moment, the dozens of Yao family monks in the square were secretly complaining after hearing this, but they had to step out under this order, so their cultivation exploded with momentum, and they were about to rush towards Xu Qing and others.
Seeing that a mutiny was about to occur, at this moment, a cold snort came from the sky.
"How dignified!"
The next moment, a force that shook the heaven and earth descended from the sky like an overwhelming force, suppressing all directions.
The entire Discipline Hall suddenly shook, and the minds of all the cultivators from all directions were tumbling, especially the dozens of Yao family monks, who were unable to move at all, as if they were being crushed by thousands of mountains.
Immediately afterwards, a figure stepped forward from the sky.
This man is an old man, with thousands of paths running in his eyes, which is the manifestation of the first level of Guixu's Shattering Sky Thousand Paths.
He was wearing the robe of a sword holder. As he walked, the sky behind him twisted, and countless illusory bodies appeared, pouring into the depths of the sky, causing the entire sword holder palace to tremble. This was the manifestation of the second stage of Guixu's transformation into virtuality and reality.
Even as he walked towards him, there were illusory scenes of space shattering one after another around him, as if worlds would be born around him on their own, and these worlds were formed in a short period of time like bubbles, and then...
Destroyed in an instant.
This is... the sign of the third level of Guixu's endless fantasies!
It's just that there aren't many worlds around the old man. He hasn't really stepped into the third level yet. It can only be said that he has just stepped into it.
But even so, it was still extremely powerful and astonishing. With its appearance at this moment, the entire Sword Holding Palace became quiet.
Xu Qing immediately recognized that the other party was the deputy palace master of the Sword Holder Palace who appeared during the Sword Holder's Oath.
"I've met the deputy palace master!" Deacon Sima was the first to clasp his fists and bow respectfully.
Xu Qing, Kong Xianglong and others also quickly clasped their fists, and soon all the sword holders around them came to pay their respects.
"I've met the deputy palace master!"
The deputy palace master had no expression on his face, looked coldly at Steward Sun of the Yao family, whose expression changed greatly at this moment, and spoke calmly.
"roll!"
Manager Sun's body trembled. He wanted to speak but did not dare. He could only lower his head and bow to the black-clothed guards of the Shenglan tribe, then left quickly with a trembling Yao family cultivator.
Ignoring the Yao family, the deputy palace master looked at the Shenglan clan with cold eyes.
"And you, you are an envoy, so I will give you one stick of incense to escape with your life as a courtesy to my human race, but if you can't escape back to Shenglan after one stick of incense, I will kill you."...
The expression of the Shenglan clan guard in black changed, and he flew out instantly, heading straight for the teleportation array in the distance.
After doing this, the deputy palace master looked at Xu Qing and others again and snorted coldly.
"You guys are very courageous. On the order of the palace master, five of you will be punished and imprisoned in the prison department for a period of one month!"
"Deacon Sima, take them to the Prison Department yourself!"
Xu Qing lowered his head, Shanhezi and others sighed secretly and also lowered their heads.
However, Kong Xianglong didn't tremble anymore. He was only afraid when facing the palace master. Now he was just in a low mood. Apparently he felt that he still had not escaped from prison after escaping for so long.
"Respect the decree of the law!" Upon hearing this, Deacon Sima looked solemn and spoke solemnly.
He naturally heard that the escort here was more of an escort, to prevent the Shenglan clan or the Yao family from getting involved.
"Let's all disperse, noisy, remember you are the ones holding the sword!"
After the deputy palace master finished speaking, he left with a cold face.
Deacon Sima raised his head and looked at Kong Xianglong and others, walked over, glanced at Xu Qing one by one, and then spoke slowly.
"I am first of all the deacon of the Sword-bearing Palace, and secondly the cultivator of the Taisi Immortal Sect." Outsiders need to ponder these words of Deacon Sima to understand the meaning.
But as Xu Qing was the person involved, he understood immediately, so he clasped his fists and bowed, but he didn't fully believe it in his heart and needed to be verified.
"Let's go, I'll take you to the Prison Department." Deacon Sima walked first.
Kong Xianglong sighed at Xu Qing, while Shanhezi and Wang Chen blinked, moved closer to Xu Qing, and spoke in a low voice.
"Xu Qing, when I get back to your house, it's up to you."
Xu Qing nodded silently, everyone sighed, and followed Deacon Sima out of the Sword Holding Palace.
When they were heading to the Prison Department, there was a circular altar building in the middle of the county capital.
The altar is very large, but the center is empty.
There are three main halls inside, which are black, red and white. There are more side halls around, with towering buildings and majestic pavilions.
The roofs of the three main palaces are covered with tiles of different colors, giving them an extraordinary and unique appearance.
And this place is strange. It seems to exist in the altar, but in fact it does not exist.
Because when you stand in this palace and look out, what you see is not the county capital, but nothingness, nothing.
In the void, only this palace complex exists.
At this moment, there are three people in the white hall in the middle.
Two people were sitting opposite each other playing chess, and one person stood in the middle and stared at the cards.
The person playing chess is the master of the Sword Palace, and sitting opposite him is a middle-aged scribe wearing a brocade robe.
This person has a fair complexion, with a vague hint of femininity. He is smiling, picking up a black chess piece, placing it on the chessboard, and poking the chess piece with his finger.
"Palace Master, you have done too much, and accidentally you became a powerful dragon that flew to the horizon and could not come back."
"What I just said in the Sword Holding Palace is right." The palace owner looked at the chessboard and spoke calmly.
"What are you talking about?" the scribe in brocade robes asked with a smile.
"Master Marquis, poke your mother-in-law!" The palace owner had no expression on his face and looked up at the brocade-robed scribe coldly.
This brocade-robed scribe was the head of the Yao family, the Marquis Yao of this generation. When he heard this, he did not show any anger, but laughed. Then he stood up and looked at the person playing chess to the side, cupping his fists and bowing...
"Governor, the chess game has been decided, there is no need to play any more. The Shenglan clan is visiting friends, so Yao will take a step back to receive them."
After saying that, Yao Hou left, his back looking slightly desolate in the darkness of nothingness, revealing a touch of loneliness.
The person watching the chess game was an old man wearing a coarse cloth gown. He looked unprepossessing and his expression was gentle, without any pressure or momentum. He smiled and nodded when he heard the words.
He is the governor of Fenghai County.
"Master Sheriff, I still can't trust him." Looking at Marquis Yao leaving, the palace owner said calmly.
"Brother Liangxiu." The county guard smiled, sat opposite the palace master, and spoke softly while clearing the chessboard.
"I know that you deliberately acted like a dragon in the chess game just now. You wanted to remind Yao Tianyan not to make the fake show come true, and in the end he became a dragon."
"But your leader is powerful in killing, and brother Tianyan joins forces horizontally and vertically, putting each other in a situation of fire and water. This is the top-secret strategy that the three of me made together back then."
"Over the years, outsiders have been scolding the Yao family, scolding them for being shameless, scolding them for being ignorant, scolding them for being traitors and traitors, scolding them for intermarrying with foreigners, scolding them for being arrogant and domineering, and making the whole clan worse than pigs and dogs."
"And there are only a handful of people in the Yao family who know about this strategy. Even if they know it, they can't say it. They can only bear it all. Yao Tianyan... This talented and talented man who was famous in the imperial capital at that time is now willing to bear the infamy.
He suffers more than you."
"Everything is because of my incompetence, because my Fenghai County is shaky, and because my human race is declining, I have to put myself in such a situation."
The Master of the Sword Holding Palace was silent for a while, then raised his head and looked into the distance, and spoke in low tones.
"There is no need to belittle yourself, Governor. If it hadn't been for your hard work, Fenghai County, which is far away from the human race and in the Shenglan territory, would have been cannibalized by the Shenglan."
"I understand what you're saying. I also know that he is in a more difficult position than me, and I know even more about his sacrifices. But I'm worried that some people in the Yao family will really become a group of overbearing dragons just walking around."
"Even if the leader has a human heart, he cannot look back and has to forget his original intention, just like the former Grand Duke Shenglan."
The county guard was silent for a long time, then spoke softly.
"Even you, as an insider, have doubts, which means that he is not far away from completely hiding the truth from the Shenglan clan."
At this moment, dusk has passed, and the sky is dark. Fortunately, the bright moon is hanging, and some moonlight is shining on the world, and also falls outside the deep pit of the Prison Department.
After escorting Xu Qing and his party here, Deacon Sima left.
Kong Xianglong looked at the familiar prison director and sighed. Shanhezi and others were also dejected. Only Xu Qing walked in front and greeted several jailers who came to hand over, watching them hang up with Shanhezi and others with cold faces.
Put on the yoke.
But here...he doesn't have it.
A familiar jailer even gave Xu Qing a yoke and asked him to help.
So Xu Qing personally put Kong Xianglong's shackles on him.
"It's really different..." Kong Xianglong and others watched this scene eagerly, noticing that when the jailers talked to Xu Qing, they would have smiles on their faces, as if they were their own people.
But they all had expressionless faces.
Then everyone showed envy.
Lao Li was also among the jailers. After looking at Kong Xianglong and others, he whispered to Xu Qing...
"I heard what happened outside the Discipline Hall today, let's go, your cells are ready."
Lao Li said, winked at Xu Qing, and led the way.
In this way, Xu Qing and his party escorted Kong Xianglong and four others into the Prison Department.
All the way to Dingshi District, when he opened the cell door, Xu Qing saw the layout inside and smiled slightly.
Although this Dingshi area is still a prison cell, there are thirty jars of wine inside, as well as a lot of food that can be bought outside by spending spiritual stones.
Five cages were even specially repaired, and futons needed for cross-legged meditation were placed inside.
Although it is still simple, it is much better than those prisoners.
After Kong Xianglong and others saw this, they also cheered up and looked at the cold-faced jailers.
Old Li spoke calmly.
"I heard about you, and you were punished and imprisoned. As pawns, we naturally have to guard you and others, but as sword holders, everyone thinks you did a good job.
Right to kill!"
"You guys are just like your own family here. You should rest this month. If you need anything, tell Xu Qing. Xu Qing, your Ding Yi San Er can't be left unattended. You can open the cell door yourself. Don't forget it when you turn around.
It’s time to go on a tour.”
After finishing speaking, Lao Li and others looked at Xu Qing and the others with solemn expressions.
"Finally, we have to say it again, you killed well!" After saying that, all the jailers here took out their command swords and held their swords in front of Xu Qing and others.
After the ceremony, the jailer turned and left.
Dingshi District immediately became quiet.
Xu Qing silently walked to the wine jar, waved his hand and the four jars flew towards Kong Xianglong and others. After each one caught one, everyone looked at each other and laughed.
"Done!" Kong Xianglong's laughter became louder and louder, he picked it up and took a big sip.
Xu Qing also laughed and took a big sip.
Then he helped everyone take off the shackles on their bodies. It's enough to do this outside, but it's not necessary here.
Time passed like this, and the five of them were locked together, as if they had gone back to the day when they killed the black-clothed guard of the Shenglan tribe and lay on the plain having fun. They were no strangers to each other now, so there were many topics to talk about.
Shanhezi and Wang Chen often bickered.
Ye Ling stays with Kong Xianglong every day. Even a blind person can feel that she likes Kong Xianglong.
As for Xu Qing, he occasionally walks out of the cell and goes to Ding Yi San Er.
Except that he couldn't leave the Prison Department and couldn't do tasks, everything was the same as Xu Qing's usual routine.
Xu Qing was very calm every time he left Ding Shi District. As the guard of Ding Yisan Er, he could not ignore Ding Yisan Er. That would be dereliction of duty.
Xu Qing felt that she could never do such a thing as dereliction of duty.
Time flies, and half a month has passed.
For ordinary people, being detained for half a month may be boring, but for monks, a retreat may be longer than this time, especially if they have wine and meat, and occasionally talk and laugh with each other, so the life is quite exciting.
.
Until this day, Xu Qing returned from duty. As soon as he stepped into Dingshi District, he felt something was wrong.
Dingshi District is too quiet today.
…
It’s not sunny today, so I continue to shiver. I wish everyone is safe...
