When they heard this, the four of them thought it was an evil messenger who was telling lies - Wuyongzhen had hired Shen Wenzheng. No matter what they thought or what they thought at that moment, they all broke out in a cold sweat. But Mrs. Shen This was quickly explained.
The Wuyong family is a family with a large system, and its business is involved in many corners. But if you want to compare it with the Ye family, there is really not much comparison. It is not that the gap between the two is too big, but the scope of involvement is different. Although In terms of business types, they naturally overlap, but the cooperation and customer groups are very different. The Ye family is a big family on the surface. Although the status in the world is not as high as it was in its heyday, several rounds of dynasty changes have dampened the vitality to some extent. Because People from the Ye family always cooperate with the imperial court, and usually the business is large and stable. The most difficult period is only the period when the past is a link between the past and the future.
The Wuyong clan is very different. Although they are also related to the court, they are also shady. At other times, they are doing business with the underworld. And their business is rarely real and serious. , the legal products are mostly tools related to onmyoji, or simply manpower and technology. Those businesses that do not seem to be very competitive with the Ye family are just a cover for darker things. Although in In these aspects, the imperial court would secretly turn a blind eye as needed, and even provide some protection when necessary, but when it really had to, it would decisively abandon them.
This is Wuyonglan - now it should be said that it is something that "Jie" will never allow. Cooperation is possible, but it is definitely not a wise move to put the entire family's lifeline in the hands of the court. Although Wuyong's business started very late, from It has not gone through the bloody storm of dynasty changes. But that doesn’t mean... if it really happens, it won’t be a choke point. No matter how he has no family feelings, as a useful tool, he will not let the family go. He fell to that end. Even with the current world situation... Although he has constant ailments, in the eyes of most people, the country is still peaceful and the people are safe.
And he believes in being prepared.
The elderly leaders in the family are naturally very conservative. However, there are naturally people in the entire family who agree with Chen's ideas, so he has many supporters. He is calm and quiet, but his methods are radical and crazy. Many people oppose it, and many people follow it. In this way, the forces within the Wuyong clan are checking and balancing each other.
The person who found Shen Wenzheng was actually a conservative within the family.
"If you think about it carefully, if a family like theirs is really controlled by him... then what's the point?"
"I'm afraid this world will be ruined much more easily than it is now."
"Listen to what those words are, but it's a shame he can speak them out loud." Han Chang sneered, "I still remember all those nonsense in the underground palace."
"That's right. He was really ruthless!" Wenying still remembered the slap she received. Then she shook her head and said to Xie Zhe: "But you have to be careful about what he says to you. You're welcome."
Xie Zhe sighed: "More than being rude...I'm still worried whether he will send someone to follow us. At present, it seems that nothing that requires attention has happened, but we must not let down our vigilance."
Wenying carefully glanced at the closed guest room door and asked in a low voice: "Well, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I'm a little worried - although that little girl is very cute, is Mrs. Shen really trustworthy? I I’m not familiar with her, I heard that you met her last year, so..."
Ling Huan frowned slightly. She didn't want to doubt Mrs. Shen, and she thought she had enough reasons: "I think she shouldn't be a bad person. What we have experienced with her is enough to prove her character. If we want to She has plenty of opportunities to attack us. Besides, she values her daughter so much that she would never involve herself in anything dangerous."
"What Ling Huan said is true." Xie Zhe agreed, "However, Wen Ying's worry is not unreasonable. It is a good thing to stay alert. Sometimes, we are often easily confused by appearances, especially in front of women and children—— But since she was introduced by Mutsuki-kun and we have gotten along with her before, I don’t think she is untrustworthy.”
"Don't tell me, I think the job she took is dangerous enough." Han Chang sighed, "Although it has nothing to do with Wu Yongzhen himself, it will never be easy if she gets involved with their family. She said her It’s not convenient to explain the mission to us clearly, but it also involves the investigation of relevant information... Ling Huan was really well interrogated. Judging from Madam’s eager look, this mission must be very important.”
"It's really... everything is so detailed." Ling Huan pinched her right hand with lingering fear. She still remembered that when Mrs. Shen subconsciously pulled her hand, the speed and strength were quite scary. "I was... At the time of the kidnapping... To be honest, looking back now, I still feel scared. I could see that she wanted to know a lot of things, but she didn't dare to ask in detail. But I turned around and comforted her, and she felt confident to ask more questions. "
"Tell me, could it be that... her daughter's personal safety was threatened, so she took on this task?"
The three people turned their heads silently and looked at Wenying without saying a word. Wenying pondered for a while and said awkwardly:
"Uh, it seems impossible..."
"Mrs. Shen is indeed a chivalrous person. It is not unusual to do something spontaneously for the people of the world. If she was really threatened by someone, she would have no chance to come into contact with Mutsuki-kun. Otherwise, she would definitely try to inform him of the situation. "
"That's right."
It was late at night, and they were very tired after walking all day. But talking to Shen Wenzheng until late at night actually cheered them up. The candles on the table burned quietly, turning the shadows of the four silent people Projected onto the four walls. The room became quiet again, and it seemed that it had never been as lively as before. This guest room is simple. Although it does not appear to be big, it is much more spacious than an ordinary hotel. Not to mention that it is against the wall. , there are two beds on the left and right sides of the room, and a stove is burning to keep warm.
There are black lines on the ground, which seem to be drawn with charcoal. The crooked look is clearly the handiwork of a child. It must be Shen Yiyi's "masterpiece".
No one went to wash up and rest. Although they stopped talking, they still gathered together in silence. Because in addition to the information, Shen Wenzheng also told them an amazing thing related to Wu Yongzhen.
He deciphered the magic formation of the underground palace to a great extent. Moreover, he also improved a terrible formation and etched it into the resentment. The knife given to the evil mouth stabbed Uoyue Lord, and the formation It was also engraved in her body. This was just a sub-formation, but the mother formation was on a corpse. That corpse was none other than the brother who had been following Tao Zhu, the evil messenger of adultery. And on that night, the angry demon The evil envoy Yin Guihong was also present.
"She said that Long Miao said that this formation should have been engraved on her body..." Finally, Han Chang broke the silence first.
"This is a debugging. They have been working together and plotting this plan for a long time." Xie Zhe shook his head.
"Why did they get together? Three evil angels..." Wenying also muttered.
Ling Huan was lying on the table, looking at the flames of the candle, her face resting on the back of her hands. She didn't look sleepy, but she must be very tired. Even so, her head was still spinning rapidly, thinking about these messy clues.
.
"It's not difficult to guess." Xie Zhe sorted it out, "Well... Tao Zhu wanted her brother to become a human, so Wuyongzhen realized her wish - using this special formation to draw from the six paths of impermanence.
Power. For Wu Yongzhen, these are also the two most suitable experimental subjects. But why did Yin Guihong also appear at the scene? It sounds like he is temporarily under the command of Liehua, but why? What benefits can he get? "
"And he doesn't seem like someone who would be willing to do things for others..." Han Chang also thought about it.
Ling Huan suddenly sat up straight and said: "So, he will definitely get benefits. What is his most desired wish? Of course, it is to destroy Kanna Wujun and avenge his family. That's what you said, right? But
There is one thing that must be known to everyone - that is, the six paths of impermanence cannot be killed. So..."
"So this formation is designed to avoid impermanence?!"
The moment Wenying blurted out her words, the flames on the table seemed to tremble.
Ling Huan was not present at that time, but was a bystander, and her thoughts were clearest. When the potential truth was told, even if they were mentally prepared, they still felt palpitations. This was really an unheard-of event: there was actually someone.
To fight against the impermanence of the Six Paths, the premise is to eliminate them. No, it is not exactly elimination, but it is better than elimination.
Destruction is even more vicious. Think about it, if you have been supplying spiritual power to dead creatures to drive them to simulate being alive - that's probably the case, they don't know the more specific principle yet - then what will happen to the person who provides the spiritual power? It will definitely happen.
Exhaustion. And for the impermanence of the Six Paths, this is definitely a kind of dark torture that will never end.
Thinking about what Yin Guihong said and his decisive attitude, it seems that he must have some means to win. From this point of view, he does. His revenge does not necessarily mean killing someone completely.
, to him, this seems to be a bargain for the life of the "murderer", which cannot offset the "crime" of destroying the family. Therefore, if the sub-formation is branded on Kannau-kun...
"We have to find a way to tell Kanna-kun." This was Han Chang's first reaction.
"I'm afraid, Maoyue-kun's situation is worse than we thought. Things will definitely get worse, otherwise Mrs. Shen would not tell us where Maoyue-kun is now... It is very risky to expose a fixed and unpredictable whereabouts.
Now I think back to her tone and demeanor when she spoke - it was because we noticed it too late. She didn't point it out because she must have been afraid that we would worry."
Wenying slapped the table, and the muffled sound was particularly loud in the quiet night.
"What a bastard! No, what a bunch of bastards!"
And Ling Huan's voice began to tremble: "I always have a feeling. It's like things are far more than that simple..."
"...We should stop speculating." Xie Zhe couldn't help but swallow, and then said slowly, "In short - we must find Lord Mao Yue as soon as possible without any further delay. This is also Shen Madam told us what Mutsuki-kun meant. He must have had some considerations before not telling the whole story. After all, so many days have passed..."
"What the hell is this?" Han Shang also rarely said dirty words.
The four people fell into silence again. In the face of the inferred and unconfirmed truth, all speculations seemed powerless - but all speculations would only make the situation more foggy.
