Chapter 18 Discovery
Everyone took their seats. Li Wangchen thought for a moment and did not use the bronze token.
He has a certain Scoia'tael temperament, but once he accumulates a lot of capital, he is willing to squander it all to enjoy the moment of pleasure, but later he can't help but feel regretful and sad, and the cycle repeats itself.
Just like yesterday.
This process is generally quite enjoyable.
Now, the most dangerous time has not yet come, so Li Wangchen decided to stay in the squirrel stage for now.
Over there, Zhu Wuwu was already chatting with Li Xunhuan.
His tone is very cordial and sincere, and because of his natural nobility and majesty, people are often flattered. In fact, given his status, he has not shown such an attitude for a long time. If Li Xunhuan had not been involved in a serious matter, he would not be willing to condescend.
expensive.
After all, Li Xunhuan was also born in Tanhua, and had also faced a holy master before. He could easily cope with such a situation. He was doing well for a while, and while he was looking forward, he raised his wine glass lightly and smiled at the corner of his mouth, which was quite romantic.
Li Xunhuan looked really unfamiliar like this. After looking at it for a while, Li Wangchen realized that this might be the so-called "model of other people's children": Li Xunhuan had such a fun-loving name, but in fact, to outsiders, he was
The kind of person who is the most disciplined, understanding, and clear-minded.
On the other hand, Zhu Wuwu's words were condensed into a few meanings.
The first point is still to apologize for Da Li's affair, and at the same time, he also provided a lot of conclusive evidence to prove that what he said was true.
Of course this is not false. Li Wangchen sneered secretly.
With the knowledge from the past life and the speculation in this life, what Zhu Mingli is best at is nothing more than fooling around and taking advantage of the situation: he only needs to appoint personnel and put the right people at the right time, and everything will run smoothly.
What kind of interference do you need to do yourself?
Let it be natural.
——This behavior, I don’t know if he has any relationship with the later Emperor Jiajing.
Bai Wuxia was so smart that he thought he had deceived everyone in the world, but he probably didn't know that his hypocrite appearance was always under Zhu Wuwu's control. This is just like Zhu Wuwu was obviously very ambitious, but he really brought his subordinate Duan Tianya back.
With one sword in the sea, Shangguan Haitang Education has become the pillar of the country.
The usefulness of such a person is that if Zhu Wuli needs a bad guy, he can let Bai Wuxia do it; if Zhu Wuli needs to do bad things, he can let Bai Wuxia do it; if Zhu Wuli needs to catch a bad guy, he can naturally catch Bai Wuxia at once.
Flawless.
But he can hide behind any time, any place, and any event.
Although Li Wangchen had no evidence, he felt that he was close to the truth on this point. However, he did not have to go against Zhu Wuwu, and now he was sneering in his heart, but his face was as innocent as a ding.
Li Xunhuan accepted this point very gracefully.
So Zhu Wuwu moved on to the next topic quite naturally.
On the topic of Sun and Moon God Religion.
Zhu Fang said, "...Mingjiao used to be the state religion of our dynasty. Later, it returned to the world and was renamed Sun and Moon God Sect. The court also treated it with courtesy. But in recent decades, they have gradually become treacherous and evil, with evil spirits.
As a result of the ghost's journey, the evil sect's reputation spread like wildfire in the world. However, Wudang, the pillar of the righteous path, could only turn a blind eye to this because of the old friendship between Master Zhang and Leader Zhang, which further contributed to the
Their power."
Li Xunhuan asked doubtfully, "I heard that the current headmaster of Wudang, Mei Zhenren, although his martial arts skills are not as good as the elder Taoist Chongxu, and his prestige is not as good as that of his senior brother, Taoist Mu, but he is still the headmaster of one party, how can he be so pedantic and dull?"
Zhu Wufang said, "It is precisely because his martial arts prestige is not as good as that of others and his position is not correct, so he walks on thin ice and is careful every step. How can he not know that today's Sun and Moon God Sect is no longer the Ming Sect of the past, but everyone in Wudang sees it
Depending on his words and deeds, even if he made a mistake, he would alarm Zhang Zhenren and make it difficult for him to secure his position."
Li Xunhuan sighed and said, "I didn't expect Master Youdao to live such a tiring life."
Zhu Wuwu said lightly, "Living in this world is not that easy. The Wudang Sect has an ambiguous attitude, so the Five Mountains Sword Sect came into being. Unfortunately, their martial arts are too poor, and they can only barely support themselves in front of the Sun and Moon Sect.
As the divine religion grew more powerful and more arrogant, it gradually began to do things that people in the world should not do."
Li Xunhuan was stunned for a moment, "What's the matter?"
Zhu ignored every word and said, "Interference in government affairs."
These four words seemed to have some kind of great power, which was earth-shaking and shocking. Even a casual person like Li Xunhuan held his breath and widened his eyes.
There was dead silence in the room.
Interference in government affairs is a very vague term. In fact, many things can be considered as interference in government affairs. Some things sound as big as the sky, but in fact they are just like this or that. It is not surprising.
Many people in the martial arts world always feel that chivalrous people use martial arts to break the rules, and the court cannot tolerate martial arts, so they hate them to the bone. They are also often proud of their rebellion against the rules.
But they were actually wrong. The real power of the imperial court would not pay attention to them at all.
There are corrupt officials in the world, external enemies and internal troubles, and natural and man-made disasters. This is where the true righteousness, kingship, and humanity lie.
That’s why Hulong Villa was created.
Hulong Villa never interferes in the affairs of Jianghu. This does not mean that they cannot interfere, it is just because the affairs of Jianghu have nothing to do with them.
In Zhu Wuwu's life, he also experienced several battles between good and evil, such as the Huashan Sword Qi battle, the Five Mountains Sword Sect fighting for the leader, the Japanese Ronin coming to challenge, the undefeated urchins massacring martial arts people... and so on.
, it may be a big deal in the world, but in his eyes, it is no more worthy of attention than a corrupt official, a case, or a piece of information.
But this time it's different.
Very different, very different.
The Sun Moon God Sect - after all, it is the Sun Moon God Sect who personally founded the Ming Dynasty. This name has a dangerous and sensitive smell in the hearts of many emperors and ministers, as if it can trigger some kind of allergic constitution in them and raise the temperature.
I'm about to sneeze.
Zhu Wuwu could not help but have such a physique. Although he concealed it well, he still showed some unspeakable awe and fear.
It's not easy for someone like him to show such an expression.
Li Xunhuan suddenly said, "The Lord God thinks that the Demon Sect is going to do something irresponsible?"
Zhu Wuwu did not answer the question directly, but changed the subject and said, "I heard that the Dongfang Invincible of the Sun Moon God Sect was not called by this name."
Li Xunhuan said with a smile, "Of course no parent would give their child such a name."
Zhu Fang said, "Yes, he changed it himself. He has great achievements in magic, looks down on the heroes of the world, and boasts that when the sun rises in the east, I am the only one who is undefeated - this is indeed a great courage and majesty that can swallow up mountains and rivers."
Li Xunhuan sighed and said, "I understand what Shenhou means. If a person can rename himself Dongfang Bubai, it means that no matter whether he is truly invincible or not, at least he feels that he has reached the end of his martial arts. But
To this day, he doesn’t seem to be over forty years old.”
Zhu Wuwu nodded and said, "This is when a man is most energetic."
Li Xun Huan said, "He must find something to do, and naturally there are not many things in this world that are worthy of a person like him."
Zhu Feng said, "And this is what worries me."
Li Wangchen suddenly laughed out loud, and the two people who were talking looked at him together.
Li Wangchen quickly raised his hands and cupped his fists, "I'm sorry, Lord Shen..."
Zhu Mingwu didn't care about anything, and turned around and continued to talk to Li Xunhuan, "Does Li Tanhua know that I have talked so much with you, what exactly do I want to say?"
Li Xunhuan smiled bitterly and said, "It's quite difficult not to guess."
Zhu Wu said, "Okay, then I won't talk nonsense. Li Tanhua's intention is..."
Li Xunhuan sighed and looked up at the ceiling, "Although my brother and sister-in-law are dead, the direct murderer is dead, which can be regarded as half revenge. After all, I am weak and weak, and I have no way to face the entire Sun and Moon God Sect. Moreover.
It seems that Ren Woxing and Dongfang Bubai are not the same people..."
He looked at Zhu Wuwu again and said with a smile, "Of course, the important social and national issues mentioned by the Lord Shen are in my heart. If there is an opportunity to contribute, I will never give up."
This can be regarded as a sudden refusal.
Zhu Wuwu was not angry at all, as if this response had been expected by him.
Next he talked about one more thing.
This matter was related to Li Wangchen. Zhu Wuwu asked about Li Wangchen's apprenticeship, which was also asked by Li Xunhuan.
According to the information, Li Wangchen's martial arts skills were acquired through secret practice during the three months of being trapped.
But now, Li Xunhuan couldn't directly name those unknown old men, those named Yan, and those named Huang. Because Zhu ignored his grasp of the world's intelligence, he knew who these people were upon hearing them, and even more so.
It was nonsense. For a moment, he had no choice but to leave this problem to Li Wangchen himself.
He winked at Li Wangchen, meaning: come up with something new.
"I have three or four masters, maybe five or six." Li Wangchen wiped the oil from his mouth and said, "One is named Cha, also named Jin, one is named Xiong, and also seems to be named Gu, and the other is named Wen.
His surname is Huang..."
"Huang?" There were no experts with the other surnames, but this was the only one that made Zhu Wenwu wary.
As far as he knew, there were not many masters named Huang in the world, but among the top masters, there were at least two that he paid attention to.
Li Wangchen said, "Yes, he is a very perverted old man."
Zhu Wuwu looked at Li Wangchen's face carefully, but Li Wangchen's eyes were pure and clear. There was only some complacency that no one in the world could guess, and there was no trace of haze. Zhu Wuwu knew at a glance that Li Wangchen
It was definitely not a lie, but he thought hard and couldn't think of any perverted person with the surname Huang who could use such means to make Li Wangchen transform into a new person within three months.
Even if he pressed further, Li Wangchen could tell a lot of details, such as Mr. Zha's scholarly family and the demeanor of a master, Mr. Gu's prodigal son and alcoholism, Mr. Huang's investigation of things to gain knowledge, Mr. Wen's good at writing poems and so on...
These are not things that can be made up casually.
Zhu Wuwu had no choice but to write these down.
The banquet passed quickly in a thoughtful atmosphere, and at the end of the banquet, Li Wangchen suddenly said, "Marquis Shen, I don't know if I can see that girl Lin Xian'er."
Zhu Wu was stunned for a moment, "What do you want to do?"
Li Wangchen said sadly, "My heart has been moved by her, and I will no longer have any joy or sorrow anymore."
Zhu Wuwu narrowed his eyes, naturally he didn't believe it, and said with a smile, "She has been severely tortured and can't move. It's better for Brother Li not to disturb her."
Li Wangchen nodded, "Yes."
So just like that, the group of people left Hulong Villa.
As soon as Li Xunhuan and Li Wangchen returned to the inn, they immediately got into the room. After making sure that no one was eavesdropping, they said a word.
Li Xunhuan said, "Your prejudice is good. After all, there is no comparison between Zhuge Mongli and Zhuge Shenhou. When I went to the Song Dynasty, I heard people say that he imitated Zhuge Shenhou's name, disciples, responsibilities, and manners... I initially
I still didn’t believe it, but now I finally believe it. Anyone who has met the two of them will see it. The fact that he gave up on my invitation so simply made me wary. He must have other means, but I actually wanted to
The reason why I refused to stay here for the first time was just to see his reaction and test it out."
Imitation? Oh, it’s Wang Jing’s fault.
Li Wangchen secretly complained and followed suit, "I can also see that nothing happened to Lin Xian'er at all. Where is the big secret of the Sun Moon God Sect? Everyone in the world knows that they are in Heimu Cliff, and everyone knows that as long as they defeat
Dongfang Bubai defeated the Sun Moon God Sect, so why is there any need to torture? And with Lin Xian'er's character, there is no need for anyone to torture her. She is smart enough to know who should be tortured the first time she meets him.
What did you say? Shenhou said it was a punishment, just to prevent us from seeing Lin Xianer, I am afraid that Lin Xianer has already been let go."
