He knew something about Xiuguan's whereabouts. It concerned Xizi, and the chance of returning at this time was extremely small.
But it's not completely impossible.
Ling Chen looked strange: "There is actually an explanation in the letter, but it didn't mention Xiuguan. It only talked about Zong Shou, who should be able to master the bronze men of the Twelve Towns by then."
As soon as these words came out, silence returned to the room. Everyone looked at each other with strange eyes.
"Master the Bronze Man of the Twelve Towns? It is said that Emperor Yin Yu of Shang has swallowed the true spirit of Emperor Qin and is the master of the Bronze Man of the Twelve Towns. How should he snatch it?"
That Sikong Fu said doubtfully: "But if Zong Shouzhen really has a way, then Xiuguan's return is probably a smoke bomb deliberately spread to confuse people's minds——"
The Cang Sheng Dao knew clearly that the Twelve Bronze Men existed, but they were still preparing to attack the Imperial City together with Zong Shou. The Jian Sect's family was not the only one who was confused and strange.
But if you add a beautiful view, it will no longer feel awkward.
"Then how should I, the Sword Sect, reply?"
"It's not easy to refuse easily, but the risk is too great. It seems inappropriate to just agree like this. After all, it is related to the rise and fall of our sword sect, so we can't be careless -"
There were a lot of discussions in the room, and Ling Chen also fell into hesitation. It was really difficult for him to make a decision on this matter.
One misjudgment may put the entire Sword Sect in danger of collapse.
It is better to go to Cangshengqiong Realm and ask Wei Xuzongshou carefully for details.
At this time, a clear voice came from outside the door: "There is no need to discuss this matter, just reply to the people directly, and our Sword Sect will definitely help!"
Several people in the room were slightly shaken and looked outside the door. They saw a young cultivator wearing a white robe, carrying a long sword on his back, and with long hair, walking in as if there was no one else around.
The several holy realm venerables present all looked solemn.
"I've met the sect leader!"
The person in front of me is the leader of the Sword Sect. He is in the realm of Ten Thousand Swords and the leader of the seven sects of the Sword Sect. He is in charge of a sect with nearly 300,000 cultivators.
Ling Chen also gave way to the throne. After bowing his head and bowing, he asked: "The sect master just said that he was helping us with all his strength, don't you know?"
"Of course it's the Floating Spirit Sword Formation!"
The swordsman in white spoke directly without any hesitation.
As for Jian Tongming, Sikong Fu and others, they were shocked again. The so-called psychic sword formation has four words in front of it: Tian Jue Di De Mu. The full name is ‘Tian Jue Di De Mu Fu Ling Sword Array’.
It is the sword sect's last resort outside the ultimate realm. Even compared to the Cang Sheng Dao's Cang Sheng Sword Formation, it is not much inferior.
It takes the sword sect's inherited magic weapon as the core. It requires a thousand fairyland monks as the base of the formation, six saints to suppress it, and supplemented by special formation weapons.
It is one of the methods used by Jianzong to compete with Zhijing——
It seems that the expressions of Jian Tongming and others are even more puzzled. The white-clothed swordsman said casually: "Before the death of Emperor Qin, he refined a national seal to replace the Heshi Bi as a weapon to suppress the national destiny. Legend has it that
This thing is the real hub of the Twelve Bronze Men. However, few people in the world have heard of it. I guess that this thing has fallen into the hands of Zong Shou. There is no doubt!"
He also explained leisurely: "Besides, the Patriarch said that the situation of swallowing the dragon is still unresolved. The appearance of an overlord and a tiger swallowing thousands of miles is an excellent sign -"
When he heard this, Jian Tongming's color changed slightly.
Patriarch? Is he the Taoist Lord of Compassion?
At this time, there is no longer any doubt that one of the origins of this magic method in the cloud world comes from the Taoist Lord of Compassion.
Ling Chen's eyes flashed with excitement, and then he sighed slightly.
The king was so angry that blood spilled thousands of miles——
Ruo Zongshou's hand actually contains the jade seal of Zhenguo.
So whether it was Yin Yu or Li Bie Xue, they all found themselves on a dead end this time.
Then he laughed, he knew the details. But the Imperial Capital City might not see it that way.
Having said that, if Jian Zong agrees to participate, then in the eyes of some people, he may be extremely stupid.
No matter what, after a few days, we will see for ourselves——

At the same time, at the head of the east city of the Imperial City, Zuo Xin stood behind the parapet, with his hands behind his back.
Under him is Xuanhua Gate, one of the three gates in the East City of Imperial Capital, which is one of the most important entrances and exits of Imperial Capital.
At this time, inside the ninety-nine-foot-wide arch, there was a huge crowd of people, and there was an endless flow of people and horses.
But unlike before, it can be seen that there is a human head hanging on the city gate.
The blood has dried and the skin is gray. After being coated with spiced lime, there is no sign of decay and it is well preserved. It is vaguely identifiable that this is Jin Buhui's appearance.
At this time, almost everyone entering and exiting the city gate would look up with curiosity, surprise, or resentment.
Some educated people would just snort coldly. Those in ragged clothes would mostly spit and then curse endlessly.
"Treacherous!"
"It's a pity that Your Majesty was merciful and only sentenced him to beheaded in half. If it were Ling Chi, I would definitely buy his flesh and eat it to satisfy my hatred!"
"It was a traitor who misled the country! In the battle in Southern Xinjiang years ago, this person betrayed the news and made Emperor Qian know about it in advance. This was the reason for the defeat of Shen Shenyuan! People who betray their country and seek glory——"
"That's right. Otherwise, with your majesty's wisdom and martial prowess, how could you have been defeated by Da Gan?"
"Recently, various places have been increasing taxes, which makes it really hard for people to live. But after all, the source is the defeat in southern Xinjiang. It is this bastard who is causing disaster to the country and the people!"
"That's really damnable! But I also heard that the Emperor of Daqian was a holy king who only came out every ten thousand years. This Jin Buhui is his sworn brother. He can be friends with the holy king. How could his character be like this?
Inferior?"
"The Holy King is the Holy King, he is who he is. As a minister of a great merchant, but he has a personal relationship with the king of an enemy country, shouldn't he die?"
Among them, there are also those who are curious and don't care about the current situation in the imperial capital.
"It is said that after Jin Buhui was cut in half, he struggled for a full day before he was completely dead. He dragged half of his body and used blood as ink on the execution ground to write more than 3,400 words of 'ridiculous and sad'
’, and finally the fingers of both hands were chopped off, and that’s when it stopped.”
"He just went crazy before he died! Why didn't he write the word 'injustice'? Maybe he could win some sympathy!"
"Actually, before it is completely dead, the soul has been trapped in this head by the spiritual master. He said that he wanted to see the great merchants fall with his own eyes."
Zuo Xin listened quietly. A group of officials stood behind him. After a long while, the Zuodu censor brushed his beard and smiled.
"It seems that in this world, justice prevails in people's hearts. You are right -"
He seemed to be speaking to the people behind him, but everyone above the city knew it.
Zuo Xin's words, from beginning to end, were only addressed to the head on the city wall.
There was no reaction inside Jin Buhui's head, just like a normal dead corpse. His spiritual thoughts also showed no signs of bullying.
It would be difficult for an ordinary person to understand this, but it would not be difficult for the few spiritual masters who followed Zuo Xin here.
Not long after, someone said: "This evil obstacle means that at this time, we can naturally control public opinion, deceive the people, and play with swords and pens. No matter how we pretend to be wrong, it will be fine. However, within a few years, we will be able to return to our true origins. You have harmed the country.
It will be recorded in the history books! It will be infamy for thousands of years. The world will remember it——"
"Being infamy for thousands of years? You really hope that Emperor Daqian will wipe out our great merchants so that you can rectify your name, right?"
Zuo Xin shook his head, looking disapproving and even more heartbroken.
"It seems that you still don't repent even if you don't regret it. I originally wanted to plead with His Majesty for you, but now I don't have to!'
He then said with a sad expression: "The things you mentioned in the memorial are actually not unreasonable, but they are not the right time! You must know that governing a big country is like cooking small dishes, how can you do it as you said? It's just shaky. It's about to collapse. Too much movement will only cause the house to collapse in advance!"
The spiritual master next to him half-closed his eyes as if listening. After a moment, he considered his tone and said.
"Since it is said that governing a big country is like cooking small fish, then raising an army, raising unjust troops, commanding 30 million troops, and conquering large cadres is the so-called cooking small fish? This is the so-called cooking of small fish? This is a greed for profit, a desire for great achievements, and no knowledge of one's own weight. The big businessmen are rotten from top to bottom. , I would like to ask how to recover if we don’t remove the carrion? If we continue to cut off, we will suffer from the chaos. How can we expect that this country is full of beetles and can manage the government well! Yuan Chen compromised and appeased, and today’s disaster happened. It only takes one step to destroy the country, so drastic measures , why not? "
Zuo Xin's face turned livid with anger: "Your Majesty is wise, and the unification of the Yun Realm is right before our eyes. How can you criticize it? Before the war in Southern Xinjiang, His Majesty's intention was to eliminate troubles first and then solve internal ones. What's wrong with that? But now. The national policy is also to clean up corruption and take over the power of aristocratic families, but you are here to find fault again. No matter what you do, you Jin Buhui will always be dissatisfied, right? Your Majesty has his own ambitions and plans, and there is no need for you to criticize him! If you have resentment in your heart, this The words are really good at all."
Then he sneered and said: "Jin Buhui, do you know that just one day ago, your eagerly awaiting Lord Daqian had already announced to the world that he would go to the imperial capital in person in four days to take his Majesty's head?" , and take your body back. You, a sworn brother, have a deep affection for you."
When these words were spoken, Jin Buhui's head began to have violent thoughts.
There seemed to be tears falling from the dry and withered eyes.
The spiritual master took a long time this time before he translated: "He said that Zong Shou came not because of his Jin Buhui, but because of the hundreds of millions of people in Daqian. He risked his life for the welfare of all people. Strange danger. That Da Qian Zongshou is much stronger than my Majesty."
Having said this, the spiritual master was already sweating, and there were some words he really didn't dare to say.
"He also said that Zong Shou must be well prepared, and he is at least 70% sure. If Emperor Shang is smart, he should have known that the Twelve Bronze Men cannot stand before our dynasty has recruited enough saints. Although your Majesty has the true spirit of Emperor Qin , it is still necessary to recruit Mohist monks and take complete control. At this time, try your best to form a good relationship with the four major families and expel the supreme demon Li Bie Xue. Relying on Taoism and Confucianism to protect your own life is the best strategy. If not, four days later, , he will definitely be here to witness the death of the Great Shang and the death of His Majesty——"
He was stunned for a moment. Although he had known that Jin Buhui had something nice to say, the last sentence still made him a little surprised.
After a moment, he waved his sleeves and said: "Four days later, your majesty will kill the sect guard and put him on par with you! Talking more is useless, now it's time to execute him!"
According to the edict of Yuan Chen before the month, Jin Buhui Yuanshen can stay, but he can be punished every seven days. (To be continued.)
