After Qi Sheng chatted with Xia Jinyu about some gossip about Ying Wang Realm, Xia Jinyu also took the initiative to say that he would comply with Meng Zun's plan and would not force Qi Sheng to take action. Everything would be resolved by the ghost market.
Although Qi Sheng wanted to show off, he also knew that the other party was repaying his kindness, so he readily agreed.
After the two simply perfected their plan, Qi Sheng left with satisfaction.
Of course, Qi Sheng did not forget to go to Xia Jinyu to exchange some ghost coins. Xia Jinyu directly gave Qi Sheng 500 ghost coins for daily expenses, which in his opinion was a sign of sincerity.
Stable!
Qi Sheng felt that he had avoided the inevitable death on January 14th.
This made most of the haze that had been shrouding his heart dissipate, and he even began to hum a tune unconsciously on the way back.
Of course, for the sake of being conservative, he decided to simulate it first after returning to the room.
【January 10th, 1759, Daxuan Calendar.】
【You have become a traitor, and you feel very happy.】
【January 11th, 1759, Daxuan Calendar.】
[You will divide the ghost coins obtained from Xia Jinyu evenly among the other explorers, and then according to the marks on the map, the explorer team will enter the ghost market through the space passage! 】
[According to Meng Zun’s plan, you need to disperse, so you are happy to go to the center of the ghost city, the Ming Tower!]
[When you arrive at the Ming Pagoda, you meet the Lord of Wangyou Ghost Market, Guizun. You and I don’t have time to greet each other, so he first arranges you to the reception room on the fourth floor and asks you to wait patiently. 】
[At the same time, an indifferent man in black is making eye contact with you in the living room. In order to avoid misunderstanding the Ghost Lord, you obediently stay in this room and drink tea without even releasing a trace of your soul power.
.]
[Time passes quietly, and you don’t know how long it has passed. All you know is that the man in black made tea for you four times, and after the fourth time, he suddenly left the living room. 】
[After you drank three cups of tea, a stone sword came from the shadows, breaking through your martial arts form with one blow, and penetrated you directly from top to bottom. The cold sword energy burst out of it and tore you apart in one fell swoop.
into pieces!]
【you are dead!】
Why!!!!!
Qi Sheng's original good mood completely dissipated after this simulation.
He couldn't figure out why the Ghost Lord wanted to kill Xia Jinyu even though he had such a good chat with him!
He decisively betrayed the other explorers. Logically speaking, according to Meng Zun's plan, even a strong attack would lead to death, so when the ghost market knew about it in advance, it would be even easier to deal with them.
Therefore, it cannot be that the other party acted angrily because he felt that he had given false information.
Is it because he doesn't like him that he must be killed?
He and the Ghost Lord clearly had no enmity, especially after vaguely guessing that the other party might have a background in winning the king's realm, so he was even less likely to provoke such a monster that he couldn't afford to offend.
So why exactly?!!!
Qi Sheng felt like he was going crazy!
No, he is already crazy!
This option of death no matter what he does brings him a far more desperate fear than facing death!
"Calm down! Gotta calm down!"
His perseverance through life and death for many years allowed him to forcefully pull himself back from the brink of mental collapse.
Where does the problem lie? Is it because I didn’t have direct contact with the Ghost Lord? No, in my case, there is no way to get in touch with the Ghost Lord in advance. The starting point is Xia Jinyu...
That’s right! Xia Jinyu!
When he reached a cooperation with himself, he did not notify Ghost Lord. Even though he behaved extremely friendly throughout the whole process, it showed that he did not take the cooperation very seriously. Of course, it may also be that he did not like him at all.
At least as far as this cooperation is concerned, it has not reached the level of needing to ask the Ghost Lord for instructions.
And many simulations have proved that even if I sell Meng Zun and others in advance, the result will not change at all, they will all die anyway!
Although at this time, Xia Jinyu will definitely contact the Ghost Lord. After all, knowing the other party's plan in advance can make more detailed and foolproof arrangements, but this also greatly weakens his own importance!
Qi Sheng took a deep breath. He never thought that as one of the leaders in the Tianwai exploration sequence, he would one day be looked down upon by a native.
"Value! I need to prove my worth! More value will do! Otherwise, I won't even be able to pass Xia Laosan's test!"
At this moment, Qi Sheng couldn't control himself and wanted to try another time simulation, but he quickly gave up the idea.
He needs to make practical changes like this time in order to affect his grasp of the general direction in the time simulation. He is sure that if he simulates it again now, he may be able to escape death in the ghost market on the eleventh day, but on the fourteenth
You will also be blocked by fishermen on the day.
What's even more troublesome is that this date may be advanced at any time.
"Plan! I need a more complete plan!"
------------------
And just when Qi Sheng was worried about how to survive.
Xia Jinyu also reported Qi Sheng's abnormality to Qin Fan.
Of course, it talks more about Yingwangjie and Qin Zun, including some speculations about the true identity of Qin Fan’s parents.
[Qin Fan: Qiao Ba is here with me first. He noticed that there was a time fluctuation in my body just now. 】
[Xia Jinyu: My Lord, if the possibility of guessing that Qi Sheng is the guy who can predict the future was only 30% before, then it has definitely reached 70% now. Because he has reached a cooperation with me, he can't help but observe the future.
Variety.】
[Qin Fan: What do you think the future he sees will be? 】
[Xia Jinyu: He will die. It is impossible for the Lord to keep him. In other words, until there is no way to check and balance his ability, no fool will let such a guy who can observe the future stay around. Otherwise, if he wants to stab him in the back one day,
It is impossible to prevent it and will definitely cause a devastating blow to the ghost market!
Besides, it's very strange for him to propose this cooperation. With his ability to predict the future many times, he doesn't need the protection of the ghost market.
So I suspect he has other plans!】
[Qin Fan: You are right, this is not a matter of tolerance. If you leave him behind, you are seeking death, not to mention that he is an outsider who has joined the outside forces a long time ago. 】
Of course, one thing Qin Fan hasn't mentioned yet is that since he has locked Qi Sheng with a 70% chance of being that person, he cannot keep such a person by his side as a pawn of a senior brother or younger brother whose position he cannot yet determine.
Now that the Shanhai Realm has just come into contact with the outer world, it is in the most dangerous period. Even if Qin Fan is very interested in his abilities, he will not be curious enough to build the foundation he has worked so hard to build.
So for this person, Qin Fan and Yu Cangmiao’s solution after the exchange was to kill him without a doubt!
Because they are not only facing Qi Sheng, but that senior brother or junior brother who has mastered the ability of time to an unknown extent. Compared with Qi Sheng, who needs to observe the future again and again, that one is likely to use Qi Sheng to notice himself
The existence of three people.
Or sending Qi Sheng to this mountain and sea realm is an option that is extremely beneficial to him in the future branch.
Thinking of this, Qin Fan couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
If he or Yu Cangmiao mastered this ability, through countless observations of the future, he would definitely be able to create a stunning layout that would shock the world.
However, according to the information recently collected, time is not a solution.
At this moment, Qin Fan could only console himself that his ability was in the late Hungry University, and he did not need to envy this senior brother who had not yet shown up.
[Qin Fan: In addition, regarding Qin Zun... Although it feels a bit strange, just like you said, some things that were originally unclear suddenly made sense, but...
】
[Xia Jinyu: Lord, if you don’t tell me this, all the beauties in the sky are blind! How could they fall in love with a dry and boring old man!]
[Qin Fan: This may not be his true appearance. Just like Huang Tiangui and Wu Ming, they are used to showing themselves with an old look on weekdays. Once they get serious, they directly switch to strong man mode!
Moreover, before the murder that happened more than ten years ago, Mr. Qin chose to come to this mountain and sea realm with my parents to live in seclusion, which meant that nothing could be more tragic than death.
We don't know what he went through, so naturally we can't put it on the scumbag who is obsessed with beauties from all over the world.
And this matter ends here. You can tell Fenghuaxueyue in private. After all, as the contact with Tianwai deepens, they will also know about it through their own channels. It doesn't hurt to inform them in advance, but you must also remind them, don't
Talk about this in front of Mr. Qin.
Because this is likely to involve a scar in his past that he doesn’t want to recall.】
[Xia Jinyu: I understand, what about the Lord’s parents...]
[Qin Fan: According to my childhood memories, if my father was just an ordinary member of the Qin family, there is really no need for Mr. Qin to be so respectful to him. And based on the information given by Qi Sheng, it can be basically confirmed that my father is 'Ying'
'Brothers.
Or rather, he is the loser in the competition for the ‘winning’ position.
And based on the Great Qin Empire established by the Yingwang Realm’s projection of all the heavens and realms, it’s hard for me not to think of a person.]
[Xia Jinyu: Cheng Xi...]
[Qin Fan: Yes, during the Warring States Period, the Chang'an Lord of the Qin State was the younger brother of Qin King Ying Zheng, Cheng Xi.
In the eighth year of the Qin Dynasty, Jun Chengyu of Chang'an led his army to attack the State of Zhao.
Later, Cheng Xiu rebelled and eventually committed suicide within the Tunliu Barrier. Cheng Xiu's rebellion caused an uproar. All his subordinates were beheaded and executed, and his (fiefdom) people were also moved to Lintao.
This is the historical record given by the player.
I even thought about the possibility that with the help of this secret technique of distracting the mind and projecting all realms, we are using the heavens and all realms as a battlefield to compete for the 'win'!
Later, the successor of ‘Win’ will be determined based on the proportion of wins and losses.]
[Xia Jinyu: Could it be that the death of the Lord’s parents is related to Ying Wangjie? Although Mr. Qin had previously hinted that we can trust the people in Ying Wangjie, his subjective intention was inherently emotionally biased.
】
[Qin Fan: Do you think that if I had a brother, he would be very capable, talented and ambitious, and he would control a power that is not inferior to mine.
And after I competed with him for the succession and succeeded, he took the initiative to retire and persuaded the courtiers who were loyal to him to join me. Will I spare his life? 】
[Xia Jinyu: Yes, because it is a big taboo for brothers to fight against each other, but I am also sure that whether it is 'Feng' or 'Yue', including me, even if I risk my life, I will find a chance to let him die in an accident, because he is
A huge hidden danger.
If he is just a waste, or an ordinary person who is far inferior to the Lord, then it is okay to support him, or even use him for your own use.
But what I'm afraid of is that he is only slightly inferior to his master and has a force that is loyal to him, but it is impossible to confirm whether he is temporarily dormant.
After all, people's hearts are the most complicated. When he was only one step away from that position, his desire had already driven him to no longer be able to pretend that nothing had happened and retreat!
Even if he fails, especially if he fails by a narrow margin, his unwillingness will turn into a nightmare that haunts him every night, until it swells to the point where he can no longer suppress it and explodes in anger!]
[Qin Fan: However, according to the historical records from the players, Cheng Yu is far from comparable to Ying Zheng. 】
[Xia Jinyu: But in the comic "Legend of the Emperor", Cheng Yu didn't behave that badly! 】
[Qin Fan: But the winner is still Ying Zheng. 】
[Xia Jinyu: Lord, we cannot take any chances. Compared with those who wanted revenge more than ten years ago, winning the King Realm is just as dangerous for us!
Maybe 'Ying' really deserves the title of the King of Eternity, and he also has the capacity to accommodate all kinds of people, but there must be people under him who are like me, like 'Feng', like 'Yue', who would not hesitate to sacrifice their lives.
A dead soldier who will eliminate hidden dangers for his lord!
And a king is the most ruthless!]
[Qin Fan: I need to use the power of Wanjie Tower to investigate information about Cheng Xi. Of course, he may not be called this name. Qin Cheng? Qin Xi? Qin Cheng Xi? But since Qi Sheng has no idea about this matter.
From what I’ve heard, this shouldn’t be difficult information to find.】
Seeing that Qin Fan didn't give another so-called excuse, Xia Jinyu also breathed a sigh of relief.
He has always believed in Qin Fan's judgment, but he knew better that Qin Fan had a high degree of trust in Qin Zun, and it was difficult for anyone to avoid being slightly swayed by emotional factors in some decisions.
The relationship between this matter is too far-reaching, and a momentary misjudgment may very well lead to the destruction of the entire ghost city, so he does not want Qin Fan to be subjectively affected by Qin Zun.
But if Qin Fan really has always had absolute reason and unbiased thinking, then his own humanity will also disappear.
This is also not what Xia Jinyu wants to see, so his mood is very complicated.
Now Qin Fan has made the most correct decision. After basically locking in his father's identity, he will then judge based on the summary of intelligence information what position to take to face the King of Wins Realm, although this matter is very cumbersome.
, but the answer obtained is more credible.
[Xia Jinyu: After this group of explorers leave, Fan Wanqian will open up part of the information about Tianwai to us. I can also change the position of the shopkeeper that Li'er wants to sell to a higher intelligence authority. ]
[Qin Fan: It’s up to you to arrange this matter. You don’t have to be too anxious. After all, this is the first day of Tianzhihen’s opening. 】
[Xia Jinyu: Yes.]
Wangyou Ghost Market, inside the Ming Pagoda.
After Qin Fan put down the token, he breathed a long sigh of relief and decided to put aside some matters that could not be solved in a short time. Then he ordered Feng Mo to call all the people who were going to participate in the battle tomorrow, and then began to make detailed plans.
