The two people in front of me are naturally the mysterious "immortal masters" mentioned by the jailer.
But only the middle-aged man Wei Su is one of our own.
Wei Su was the son of the leader of the "Three Tribulation Sect", the largest sect in the Great Zhou Dynasty. He came with his disciples to assist the Zhou army in conquering the city.
And this Shen Xingzhu is the Taoist disciple of the Xuan Shen Dao Sect and the direct disciple of Earth Spirit Yuanjun "Qing Pingzi".
Xuan Shen Dao Sect does not belong to any country. The 70,000 disciples of its sect occupy a state called Fuli - in fact, it is basically a country of its own.
This sect prides itself on being absolutely neutral and worshiping the God of Morality. Its disciples often travel to various countries to lobby in order to prevent the wars that are raging in today's troubled times.
The war between Zhou and Liang affected a wide area.
It's not unusual for Shen Xingzhu to appear here.
But for Li Hongling and the Three Tribulations Sect, it is a huge obstacle.
"It doesn't matter if you take a look. I hope Master Shen Xian really just takes a look."
"General Lee doesn't seem to trust me."
"Heh...how can you not trust Xuan Shen Taoist sect with such great reputation?"
"My Xuan Shen Dao Sect does not participate in worldly disputes. As long as the reason for sending troops is legitimate and does not harm the way of heaven, we will not take action."
Shen Xingzhu's eyes behind the green gauze were always calm and calm.
Li Hongling narrowed her eyes:
"Of course, this war could have been avoided if Su Yu hadn't repeatedly provoked and insulted my ancestors of the Zhou Dynasty. It is really regrettable."
She waved her hand to the adjutant: "When the immortal master opens his mouth, there is no reason to be negligent."
The adjutant hurriedly stepped forward: "Master Shen Xian, please, I will take you to the torture chamber."
After Shen Xingzhu left, Li Hongling said impatiently:
"Master Wei Xian, didn't you swear that you could deceive her away?"
"Now if something is leaked during the interrogation and she learns about that person's plan, you are not unaware of the power of those crazy people in the Xuan Shen Dao Sect."
Wei Su waved his fan: "She doesn't want to leave, how can I invite this great master-level Buddha?"
Li Hongling's scarlet eyes were very unkind.
He turned over the fan helplessly, and the ink marks gradually appeared on it, forming the words "Eternal Life Lock".
"Don't worry, I have made arrangements in the past few days. In a moment, the concept of 'Eternal Lock' in this city will be temporarily replaced. No matter who tells it, she will not know."
Li Hongling's eyes flashed:
"Have you heard that Master Wei's technique of 'stealing the sky and exchanging the sun' is so magical?"
She asked in a deep voice:
"What did you replace it with?"
Wei Su smiled slightly:
"If the Dharma is not passed on to the six ears, please come over, general."
…
Fifty thousand people?
I saved 50,000 people with one steamed bun?
Why?
Why?
Chen Kuang was awakened by the updated status bar in the middle of the night. He thought about it all night, but he couldn't figure it out.
In comparison, even the "bigu" passive has become secondary.
There are not many Liang people left in this imperial city. Of course, these 50,000 people are the 50,000 Zhou troops stationed here.
He just distributed the steamed buns to Mrs. Liang Guo. How could he indirectly save the lives of the 50,000 Zhou troops?
Mrs. Liang Guo has a problem?
Could it be that this is the real darkness under the lamp...
Chen Kuang even began to suspect that Mrs. Liang Guo was a spy for the Zhou army and had come to trick him.
"That's not right. If they doubted me, even if there was even a slight possibility, I should die right now."
Chen Kuang muttered in his heart.
He looked suspiciously at the unsuspecting Mrs. Liang Guo who was sleeping soundly in the corner, holding the little princess like a pillow toy.
The sky was dimming slightly, and the weird starlight gradually faded away.
But when Chen Kuang took a closer look at Mrs. Liang Guo, he discovered something unusual.
The beautiful woman is so white that she seems to be shining...
He originally thought it was just the whiteness of his skin and the contrast of light at night.
But it was already daytime, but this beautiful woman was still shrouded in a hazy, faint white halo, giving her a vague feeling of sanctity.
What's this?
Chen Kuang narrowed his eyes, his "seeing through fire" passivity allowed him to see through all illusions and disguises.
In other words, this is the true state of Mrs. Liang Guo.
But he couldn't understand what this halo represented.
The jailers who came to deliver meals in the morning had already changed a group of people, and they all looked a little nervous. It was obvious that the sudden fighting last night was very fierce.
Zhou Jun did not have the absolute upper hand... This is a good thing.
Chen Kuang groped his way to the cell, and heard the sound of chains rubbing next to him. Huo Hengxuan was led away by several jailers for interrogation.
Huo Hengxuan looked up at him and suddenly hugged the pillar next to him like crazy, yelling hoarsely while struggling.
"I am the general! My martial arts skills are unparalleled! How dare you, humble little brats, to fight!"
The jailers spent a lot of effort to restrain him and dragged him away hurriedly.
"Blind man, come here quickly. This way, walk faster!"
"I'm going to be kind today and improve your food!"
Chen Kuang lowered his eyes and saw that the bowl the jailer stretched out was no longer a steamed bun, but a steaming bowl of oily vegetable rice!
His heart suddenly sank.
This is a deprivation meal!
But this is definitely not right. A small figure like him with no status should have been used as a slave to supplement the loss of army personnel in the Zhou army's plan.
Unless someone suddenly decides his life or death.
After another quick glance, only a few people were holding vegetable pickled rice, while the others were still holding cold steamed buns.
And those people were all the ones who made wild remarks because of the ancestor's action last night, including the Confucian scholar who spoke first, all of them looked pale at this moment.
Chen Kuang felt relieved.
Someone is watching this cell!
There was no one in the cell. This person must be monitoring through the means of a practitioner, but he had no way to get the specific details. It might be like watching a silent surveillance camera.
Because even though there was a man holding a steamed bun in his hand, he actually said some fierce words last night.
This man only made lip-syncs without any major movements, and survived.
After thinking about it, Chen Kuang realized that he might be implicated because of the steamed bun given to Mrs. Liang Guo...
but,
Since Huo Hengxuan has been taken away, it shouldn't be this round.
The next interrogation may be a dead end.
According to the previous rules, the jailer would take people away every morning and bring them back at night.
He only has twelve hours left!
He was still hesitant at first, but now there is no need. Someone has already made the decision for him.
Chen Kuang sighed and suddenly reached out and grabbed the jailer in front of him.
The jailer was young and would scream when he was caught.
But I heard the blind musician begging in a low voice: "Sir, am I going to die? It doesn't matter if I die, but I still have an old mother and young son at home. Can you please help me?"
The jailer said impatiently: "Get out of here! What do you want to do? I tell you, we have rules..."
"Sir, can I walk in the imperial city?"
The blind musician said quickly and sincerely: "When I was a musician, I was gifted a pure gold cup by Emperor Liang. I also had two hundred taels of savings, which I hid in my residence in the imperial city. Could you please help me bring some of it to my home."
The jailer was silent for a moment.
"Dong Da, what are you still doing?"
Suddenly a colleague over there called him: "After the distribution is finished, hurry up and leave. If you delay for a long time, be careful of being scolded by the corps leader!"
"right away!"
The jailer turned around and immediately changed his face:
"Go, go, go, I'm very busy, I don't have time to care about your nonsense!"
"I also know that other musicians have hidden things, especially Yue Zheng, who was very close to Emperor Liang. He has a one-foot-square glazed box in his hand..."
