Chapter 507 Clearing the clouds and revealing the sun
Tang Zhao was startled and then understood what she meant. Of course, this girl was referring to Ling Baoyu.
Ling Baoyu exists in the form of a white fox and is hidden in the blind spot of curiosity. Most people, even ordinary swordsmen, cannot detect her existence. However, Gao Yuanhou not only saw through the concealment at a glance, but also directly saw through her essence, possibly even through the sword elephant.
See through her appearance.
Tang Zhao knew that Gao Yuanhou was named after "far-sighted". The sword's intention was mostly similar to insight, and her eyesight was rare in the world. She could even see through time, and it was nothing to see through Ling Baoyu at a glance.
It can even be said that Ling Baoyu has one more natural enemy.
Ling Baoyu was shocked. Although she came to contact Yunzhou on behalf of Bai Yujing, she still prided herself on her status as a direct subordinate of Jinjian Xianzuo, and felt a bit like "an immortal descended to earth".
They came back from the Broken Realm. Although the Broken Realm protects the human world, the development of strength has already been higher than that of the human world, especially the upper limit is several levels higher, and the human world has become like a "fish pond".
She had heard Tang Zhao talk about Marquis Gao Yuan before, and she also knew that Tang Zhao respected this monarch very much, but she thought that this respect came from order and seniority, and just respected the other person's age and status. She
Since he is not in the order of Yunzhou, he will naturally not pay this kind of respect. At most, he can only maintain respect for the leader of one force.
However, as soon as they met, Marquis Gao Yuan's understatement made her see clearly. She was immediately inspired and lost a lot of her arrogance. She thought: She is indeed a high official in the world, with real talents and learning. Look.
With such a graceful appearance, she must have been a great beauty when she was young. It's a pity that I didn't see her. What a pity!
Now that she was seen through, she stopped hiding and walked out of the blind spot. But she still maintained the appearance of a white fox. After all, this was a sword elephant, not a vixen, and there was no way she could suddenly turn into a human.
She bowed as a white fox and said, "Bai Yujing Ling Baoyu has seen His Excellency Gao Yuanhou in the human world."
Tang Zhao hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "Junhou, this is Miss Ling, the swordsman of His Highness Ruyi Sword Qiao."
It was inconvenient to talk outside, so Tang Zhao did not explain in detail, but the mention of the word "Your Highness" indicated that Ruyi Sword is a sword immortal. All sword immortals can be respectfully called "Your Highness". This title is rare in the world, but he has been to Broken
Everyone in the domain can understand.
Marquis Gao Yuan also looked solemn. He had not heard any news about the Sword Immortal for many years. It is not that there are no existences of that level in the human world, but that a limited number of them are aloof from the world and will never walk in the world, or even cut off from the outside world.
Contact. Marquis Gao Yuan knows that there is only one person of that level who still plays a vital role in the mortal world.
Since he was the messenger of the Sword Immortal, Marquis Gao Yuan had to take a high look, and at the same time, he paid more and more attention to the news that Tang Zhao would bring next.
In fact, according to general etiquette, when an envoy of this level comes to visit, Tang Zhao should inform him in advance that Yunzhou must be greeted by Gao Yuanyuan with thoughtful etiquette. Even if it is a secret visit, he should be notified privately and properly arranged by Marquis Gao Yuan, otherwise it will be rude.
How can I bring someone directly to my door?
Unexpectedly, in order to keep the secret, Tang Zhao did not reveal almost any information. Instead, he asked Marquis Gao Yuan to come to Yunzhou to wait for him. That means Marquis Gao Yuan was ambitious and Xing Ji was willing to help him change the situation. Otherwise, let alone meeting Marquis Gao Yuan, he would be suspected of having ulterior motives.
Marquis Gao Yuan entered the cabin, but neither the commander nor Xing Ji followed him. Instead, they stood at opposite corners of the deck to monitor, like door gods. Two swordsmen guarded the door. Such an arrangement was the only one in Yunzhou.
Marquis Gao Yuan said: "Mr. Zhang is also in the east room. There is no one else around. Where are you going?"
Mr. Zhang can only be Zhang Rong, and now he is a close aide to Marquis Gao Yuan. She is asking about such a confidential matter. Can Zhang Rong be present?
After Tang Zhao hesitated for a moment, Gao Yuanhou had already pushed open the west hatch. Tang Zhao hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhang, it's okay."
Marquis Gao Yuan nodded, and Tang Zhao opened the hatch on the east side. Inside was a simple cabin, without even a chair. Zhang Rong stood in the cabin, smiling and nodding to him.
Tang Zhao saluted and said, "Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Rong nodded and smiled: "Xiaotang... a swordsman? In the blink of an eye, he has become a swordsman. It has only been a year, right? The cry of the young phoenix resounds through the sky."
Tang Zhao hurriedly thanked him, feeling secretly happy - he was not a person who couldn't bear praise, but praise depended on who praised him, and praise from a rare genius like Mr. Zhang was also the best match among high-quality praises.
Marquis Gao Yuan said to Tang Zhao: "I'm not coming back for you. An hour later, there will be a military meeting against the turtle bandits at the headquarters of the District Procuratorate. All the inspectors of the District Inspectorate will attend. We enter the water gate through the waterway and go directly to the District Prosecutor's Office.
manage."
Tang Zhao understood what she meant and said: "One hour is enough, and it will not delay your work arrangements. And... I think this matter also involves the turtle bandits, so I can just inform the inspectors at the military affairs meeting."
He felt that part of this meeting might be held just for him. If he brought useful information, he could formulate targeted strategies and mobilize the inspectors to take action.
Of course, if the information he brings is useless, or is useful but does not correspond to this military affairs meeting, the military affairs meeting must have other agendas and will not be disbanded on the spot. That is, if Tang Zhao went all the way to call Gao Yuanhou back, he would also let him go
The commanders and envoys are on lookout, and the envoys are patrolling and waiting in various places. If there is nothing serious to report, there will definitely be no good fruits.
Tang Zhao thought for a while and said: "I heard that the turtle bandits have a huge conspiracy in Yunzhou. Each bureau has been busy with this matter for several months, but the rumors are getting tighter. Has it not been dealt with yet?"
He did not share his information, but asked the turtle bandits first.
Marquis Gao Yuan glanced at Zhang Rong, and Zhang Rong said: "It's been dealt with, of course. The Zhou Chengzhi you brought back was very cooperative and provided a lot of information. The two presiding Zhu Kingdoms are gone, and the remaining snakes are leaderless.
, it’s nothing more than a hasty escape. Now we have caught all the turtle bandits in the open and even those who are not deep in hiding. Even if there are still some hidden bandits, it is not a cause for concern. There are monarchs in Yunzhou, and there can be no more swordsmen.
It is not easy for a person of this level to infiltrate even a swordsman. To put it bluntly, even if ten or eight swordsmen join forces to cause trouble, what kind of disturbance will be caused? Logically speaking, the suppression of the bandits should be considered a success."
Tang Zhaodao: "But the Lord and you both know that this is just peace on the surface, and there must be other conspiracies inside."
Zhang Rong said: "Yes. The turtle bandits have a big plot. It is definitely not to seize Yunzhou as a basis for rebellion. It must be a plot that goes beyond the geographical advantages of the armored soldiers. Zhou Chengzhi vaguely knows a little bit, but not completely. After all, he is not
A veteran of the former Wei Dynasty, he was not qualified to know too much. He only knew that he came to Yunzhou to obey the orders of the turtle bandits. One was to develop his subordinates and persuade them to become thieves, and the other was to survey the nodes and layout according to a certain formation map.
A large formation. When the formation is completed, it is said that their big plan will be launched, and it is said that 'big things can be accomplished'."
Tang Zhao said: "Since there is a formation diagram, the content cannot be hidden from Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Rong smiled bitterly and said: "What kind of god do you think I am? I only have a brief knowledge of Qimen Bagua and military formations, but I really can't understand the formation diagram. We suspect that it has something to do with the talismans. Please ask the master to take a look. He
I don’t understand either. This should be a secret biography of the former Wei Dynasty. After all, the former Wei Dynasty has been prosperous for hundreds of years and has its own spiritual official system. It is not surprising that they have their own formation system. I would like to crack it, but with just one
The picture is really hard to start with.”
He then said to Tang Zhao: "Do you still remember that you captured an anti-king at the same time?"
Tang Zhaodao: "There seems to be one, right? Is he the one who ran all the way from Kungang to Yunzhou? I remember that he was very cooperative and confessed without much resistance?"
Zhang Rong said: "He is from the royal family of the former Wei Dynasty, so he must know more. We plan to break through from him. This person was very cooperative at the beginning. He must have been hit by something and lost his temper. But there is only one thing. He didn't say a word when he mentioned the formation map.
Fa, even when it comes to Yunzhou's 'big things', he keeps silent, and he can persist even under torture, which is a bit tough."
Tang Zhaoqi said: "If you can't find anything out through torture, you can use swordsmanship. There are many swordsmanship that directly point to the spirit..."
Then he realized, what kind of king...he was a spiritual official.
When it comes to playing with the soul and the spirit, can a swordsman outplay the spirit officer? What’s more, he is still a royal family, and all kinds of secret techniques should have made the construction of the soul airtight. It would be even more difficult for others to dig out the secrets from his soul. If
If torture doesn't work, there aren't many other ways.
Zhang Rong said: "We used a lot of tactics and asked Zhou Chengzhi to talk to him. In the end, we only revealed the words 'clear the clouds and see the sun' and couldn't ask anything else."
Tang Zhao took a deep breath. Zhang Rong said these four words calmly, but when he heard them, they were like thunder in his ears.
At this time, he no longer had any doubts. The turtle's secret was indeed closely related to the information he knew.
He calmed down and asked, "Have you ever thought about the meaning of these four words?"
Zhang Rong said: "I'm not the only one who thinks about it. Everyone is thinking about it. The original meaning of these four words is to break through the clouds and see the light again. From their point of view, the clouds are naturally the court and the light is themselves. It can also be said that they are just meaningless.
Descriptive. But if you look at this word as a riddle, the word "Yun" may refer to Yunzhou."
"Pull the clouds is to subvert Yunzhou and see the 'sun' again. The only thing we can't guess is this day. Maybe it's some of their inherited secret treasures? Or maybe it's an important figure in the turtle bandits? For example, the legendary Otsuka Zai?
Could it be that we want to overthrow Yunzhou and rescue this important figure?"
Tang Zhao secretly sighed in his heart. As expected of Zhang Rong, he was right to guess the direction out of thin air. The reason why he failed to guess the right direction could only be a matter of information. He really could not understand things at another level. He said: "I have a different idea when I see the sun through the clouds."
view."
Zhang Rong and Gao Yuanhou looked at him with expressions that clearly said, "What I'm waiting for is your opinion."
Tang Zhaodao: "This cloud undoubtedly refers to Yunzhou. But this Yunzhou may not be the Yunzhou government or the Yunzhou court. It may be the physical Yunzhou."
Zhang Rong's eyes widened and he said: "Wait, you mean..."
Tang Zhaodao: "To move the clouds is to smash the land of Yunzhou and let the existence hidden under Yunzhou come out."
Marquis Gao Yuan originally only listened to Zhang Rong's narration, but now he asked hurriedly: "What is down there? What's the 'sun'?"
Tang Zhaodao: "The sun should refer to the Golden Crow Sword. If I guessed correctly, the Golden Crow Sword sank deep into Yunzhou, and it is probably already a 'sword master'."
