Chapter 10 The Heroic Twilight (5)

Chapter 10: The hero is old (Five)

West of the city, Luofengpo Town.

Luofengpo, as the name suggests, once a phoenix fell from the sky and lived here. There is also a beautiful legend among the locals. According to legend, the great god Gonggong angrily hit Buzhou Mountain, causing the world to collapse. So a phoenix that was injured by a huge rock when the world was in chaos fell in this place and turned into a beautiful girl. He was rescued by a woodcutter who went up the mountain to chop wood. After a long time, the two became husband and wife. However, the phoenix was not a human being, and it was an immortal body. However, the woodcutter gradually aging because of the passing of time. The phoenix has eternal beauty. He knows the day when the woodcutter died. Because the phoenix who loved the woodcutter deeply was in pain, he finally turned into a mountain and river to accompany the woodcutter forever. This is the origin of Luofengpo.

The legend is no longer reliable, not to mention that thousands of years have passed, and the situation on that day has changed with people's good wishes. However, the locals always believe that the land they are trampled on is transformed by a dead phoenix.

It is a coincidence that there is no book. There seems to be a will in the dark. Luofengpo was the place where Xu Rongrong, the former high-ranking empress dowager, fell. Luofengpo was close to the official road. The most coincidental thing is that it is just above the three junctions leading to the No. 1 Prison in the capital. Strictly counting it, it should be considered a small town, and it is a very prosperous town. Of course, this has a lot to do with the infrastructure construction implemented by Zhu Yinglong. The original official road was narrow and lame, which was very difficult to walk. Generally, the past merchants would rather take a detour than take this shortcut. Now it is different. The official road is wide and flat, so the deserted village in the past has developed into a increasingly prosperous town.

In the evening, a very ordinary black-peng carriage drove into the town. Since the people in the town were used to seeing strangers, the carriage did not attract people's attention, and naturally no one knew where the carriage was going.

A very ordinary house in the town, the shadows of the omnipresent shadows did not find that this house was actually the secret contact location of Wuwei Cult.

A sealed room shot out a ray of light through the gaps in the tiles. In front of the only door, two men in black dress stood with extremely solemn expressions and eyes all over the world. They looked like they were all elite martial arts.

After a while, the night became darker and darker, and I couldn't see my five fingers.

Suddenly, a sudden sound of rapid footsteps was heard, and after a few breaths, a tightly covered man appeared in the yard.

"Who!" Two big men in black looked at the visitor with a nervous expression, and their right hand was already on the weapon held by their left hand.

“The Holy Church Revival!”

"Hello Mother!"

The two men in black dressed in strong clothes suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, separated the way and let the people in.

The man pushed open the door at an extremely fast speed, then flashed, the door was closed, and the yard immediately returned to its previous tranquility, as if this person had never been there.

Although the lights in the house were not very bright, they could still see the people inside clearly. Xu Rongrong was wearing military uniform and looked at the visitor with an extremely solemn expression. Perhaps she was worried about giving her son to others for care, so she was still holding a boy of four or five years old and a kind of carved jade in her arms. In the hearts of Wuwei scholars, this boy of four or five years old was their holy son. The future master was on the left side of Xu Rongrong's most trusted old servant in Hua.

The visitor had taken off his headband and showed off his appearance as a man. He stood in front of Xu Rongrong with his eyebrows down, extremely respectful.

"Raising troops for a thousand days is used for a moment, and now it is the moment of life and death of my Holy Church, do you know?" Xu Rongrong said slowly.

"The Fang Fang is willing to be the leader, the Virgin and the Son of the Holy Son through fire and water, and he will never refuse to die." The man in the costumes of the man quickly knelt down and said.

"Okay, Fangs, I officially promoted you to the guardian of the Holy Church." Xu Rongrong was very happy and said with a smile.

"Thank you, Holy Mother!" Fang said excitedly.

"Get up quickly, the Fang Guardian." The old servant named Hua said with a smile.

"Thank you the chief protector of Hua." Fangya hurriedly stood up and bowed respectfully to the old servant named Hua.

"The Holy Sect rescue leader has experienced a failure, and the court's defense will definitely be more strict. However, the emperor never expected that there were people from the Holy Sect hidden around him, so his every move was under my control. Therefore, this palace has the confidence to win this action." Xu Rongrong said confidently.

"The Virgin Mary has no choice but to follow the Virgin Mary's instructions." The Virgin Mary said quickly.

"Okay, Lan Rong, a traitor of the Holy Sect, will pass by Luofengpo tomorrow morning and go to the First Prison. This time she has no guards around her. This is a good time for us to take action. As long as you catch her, you can force the court to release the leader. Moreover, this palace has also received news that the traitor is pregnant with the emperor's dragon seed. This is really a blessing from God to my Holy Sect!" Xu Rongrong said excitedly.

"This is really God bless my holy religion!" Fangya also shouted excitedly.

"The traitor is very skilled in martial arts, and is probably second only to the leader of the Holy Sect. Fangya. This time, you must all be dispatched to ensure that everything is foolproof and cannot hurt her for the time being, otherwise it will be extremely unfavorable to threaten the court to release the leader." Xu Rongrong ordered Fangya very carefully.

"Don't worry, the Virgin Mary and the General Protector. Everyone in the Fang Fang team has received careful guidance from the leader. They are all good players. A pregnant traitor does not have three heads and six arms. There are nearly a hundred people in the Fang Fang team, and they can't take them down. Fang Fang has no face to see the Virgin Mary and the General Protector again!" Fang Fang patted his chest and ordered the army with confidence.

Xu Rongrong thought it was true. If Lan Rong had a guard accompanying her, even if the Fang Fang team could win, it would have been a terrible victory. Now Lan Rong has only two people, one of them is the inside line of the Holy Sect. This is simply a matter of being able to capture. The reason why Fang Fang was sent was to be afraid just in case.

"I have received the news that they will meet at the 'Li Ji' tea shop at the three-point intersection of the west entrance of the town. You set out in the middle of the night and ambushed around with the help of snow. Remember, you brought back two people, and neither of them will cause any damage. One is a traitor and the other is a traitor's personal girl. You must act quickly and you must not find your whereabouts." Xu Rongrong said.

"Don't worry, as my current public status, it will be easier to act." Fangya smiled.

"I have forgotten the Fang Guardian, you have another identity. This is the Holy Teaching of God helping me!" Xu Rongrong said with joy.

"Holy Mother, the general guardian, Fang Fang is not convenient for a long time, so go back and prepare first, and take a break!" Fang Fang bowed and clasped his fists, then opened the door like a ghost and flashed out of the door, and several ups and downs disappeared into the night.

"Don't worry, Miss, Fang Fang's loyalty is absolutely reliable. The old master treats him like a parent-child, and teaches martial arts himself. There are very few people in the Holy Sect that can compare with him. It is precisely because of this that the old master gave Fang Fang the most elite power of the Holy Sect to him." The old servant surnamed Hua looked at Fang Fang's leaving figure and smiled at Xu Rongrong with relief.

"I feel much more relieved when Uncle Hua said this." Xu Rongrong felt a little uneasy in her heart, but she didn't know where this uneasy came from. When the old servant named Hua said this, she suddenly got much better.

"Miss, you'd better take a break. We must move another safe place tomorrow." The old servant named Hua said with concern.

"How is the city?" Xu Rongrong asked.

"Lei Yaoyang has quietly ordered the heads of each branch in Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Anhui and Henan to attend meetings in Beijing. In the past two days, people from several branches near the capital have entered Beijing. They were arranged by Lei Yaoyang in his old Zhengyuan store and were placed in his house arrest." The old servant surnamed Hua reported.

Xu Rongrong sneered: "Lei Yaoyang is just a jackal with great ambitions and talent. He thought he could seize power while he was not in Beijing. In fact, he didn't know that he had already sold his son and counted the money for him!"

"The Lei family has long been unfaithful to the Holy Church. This time, the lady used a trick to make them turn against each other and become enemies, but also blocked a lot of trouble for the Holy Church. The old slave thought that the court must be staring at these two fathers and sons now, but we are left out of the matter and facilitate our actions." The old servant surnamed Hua admired Xu Rongrong's wisdom.

"Uncle Hua is ridiculous. This is just that the court does not know our background, so we passively fooled him. Uncle Hua didn't see the court surveillance of Zhengyuan Escort Agency but did not take action? They couldn't catch a slight clue from us, and were afraid of alarming the enemy, so they didn't attack the Zhengyuan Escort Agency for a long time!" Xu Rongrong saw it very thoroughly. In fact, it was exactly the case. Shadow did not grasp the exact relationship between Zhengyuan Escort Agency and Wuwei Cult. Once the people from Zhengyuan Escort Agency were arrested, this clue might be cut off. It would be even more difficult to find the hidden body of Wuwei Cult in the vast sea of ​​people.

"Miss exposed Zhengyuan Escort Agency, is it for..." The old servant surnamed Hua was not stupid either, but he was scared of Xu Rongrong's cunning.

"Yes, I have ordered people to quietly start selling the Zhengyuan Escort Agency's property a year ago, and deliberately created the illusion of Zhengyuan Escort Agency's recession, and then secretly let those who are loyal to the Holy Sect take over the Zhengyuan Escort Agency's property. Now the Zhengyuan Escort Agency is just an empty shell. What's ridiculous is that Lei Yaoyang is so stupid to turn against him for a father and son who is in name only!" Xu Rongrong was extremely arrogant about her plan to drag the Lei family, which was unfaithful to the Holy Sect, into the abyss of destruction step by step.

"Miss is very impressed by the old slave." The old servant surnamed Hua bowed slightly and said.

"Once my father is rescued, all the Holy Sects will be transferred underground. When Rui'er grows up, he will regain the throne that belongs to Rui'er!" Xu Rongrong said in a deep voice, a trace of resentment flashed in her eyes!

"Miss wise. Now the little master is the hope of the Holy Church, and the Holy Church also needs time to accumulate strength." The old servant surnamed Hua agreed very much.

At the same time, a major incident happened in the palace. Depin's Empress Lan Rong disappeared. The place where she disappeared was still in the Yonghe Palace of Concubine Yi Magu. The emperor was furious and ordered the Hai brothers who were always protecting Lan Rong to quietly leave the palace to find her. In the moment of chaos, Lan Rong's personal palace maid Xiao Meixiang also disappeared, but she was just a little palace maid and did not attract much attention.

But no one expected that this was a carefully rehearsed drama. At the beginning, the one who disappeared was actually Xiao Meixiang, who disguised herself as Lan Rong. She was just a smoke screen in the whole drama. Magu did not directly ask her to be a bait, but asked her to act as a cover role, allowing Lan Rong to successfully escape from the surveillance of the Hai brothers and then find an opportunity to leave the palace. Of course, Magu also played a disgraceful role in this. She was the planner of the whole drama, participant and conspirator, and later everyone did not "know"

"The missing Xiao Meixiang is Lan Rong, but after Lan Rong left the palace, she did not meet at the place she discussed with Xiao Meixiang. Instead, she threw away the stalker arranged by Xu Rongrong with the cooperation of the shadow, and quietly returned to the palace, causing the illusion that she had left the city and rushed to the meeting place. Magu also prepared another substitute to pretend to be Lan Rong after she left the city. Therefore, Meixiang and Xu Rongrong, who was waiting for the rabbit, had no idea that she had fallen into a huge trap.

Will the Wuwei Sect be deceived? This is simply a battle of inconsistency, because they don’t know where the enemy is, what they think, everything is based on guessing. In addition to confirming one thing, that is, Xiao Meixiang, the personal palace maid next to Lan Rong, is an undercover agent carefully arranged by Wuwei Sect. Through this incident, Zhu Yinglong realized that being an emperor is a very dangerous job. If you are not careful, you may have life worries. He understands a little bit why so many emperors only like to stay in their palaces and read the memorials of their subordinates, and are unwilling to go to the people to investigate the facts, because the danger coefficient is too great, and he also has to worry about whether anyone will leave the palace and seize his throne again. Loving power and fear of death are common problems of almost all emperors. Even Ying Zheng, who unified the six kingdoms, and the world is the same, and respected as the First Emperor, is no exception!

In fact, this is also a common problem for human beings!

Zhu Yinglong cannot guarantee that he will become like this in the future, but he has no regrets in his two lives. It depends on whether he has the courage to retreat!
