In the quiet secret room, the fire candles swayed, making several figures look like ghosts.
"Gei, have you decided?"
The burly man in black stood solemnly, with a breath of thunder.
When an ordinary second-rate master meets him, he will immediately become paralyzed and fall to the ground with a rush of martial arts.
The indoor atmosphere was very depressing, and the adviser with a feather fan and a scarf next to him advised:
"Gei Master, although the country is heavy, there are two thousand people in this family, eight hundred families of Li's children, and the officials and officials in various places are dependent on you, and there are tens of thousands of them. You have to think about them. There is no dynasty in the world that has a thousand years of age. , a family that has only been a thousand years old, the Li family has lived in Yingchuan County for many generations, and they should understand the principle of protecting themselves. Why should wedge this muddy water?"
"Please think twice."
The burly man in black also spoke out and persuaded him.
The old man stood with his hands behind his back, facing his back to the two, exhausted both physically and mentally and said:
"In recent years, I have repeatedly suppressed Liu Qing, not asking about right and wrong, nor asking about black and white, and offending people. When the concubine in the palace saw me, she wished she could eat my flesh. In the future, Liu Qing rose and became the prime minister. , I am afraid that my family, Li, will not escape the disaster."
Without waiting for the two of them to persuade him, Li Songshan said:
"Now it is no longer something I can retreat just by wanting to retreat. To advance, to support the prince to the throne, there is still a bright world. If you retreat, you will be crushed to pieces!"
The two were speechless.
This is true for party struggles. Once a party is formed and a huge interest group is formed, there will be no way out.
Or they have a huge power and share the imperial power.
Either the struggle fails, all the people and horses will be suppressed.
After all that, what else can the two of them say?
The strategist shook his feather fan and asked at the man in black:
"What's the situation with Liu Qing?"
"He has been sick for three days and no one has seen him. The Northwest Poison King Yang Cang pretended to be sick. Their height, appearance and voice were similar, and they were slightly disguised. As long as they were not acquaintances who had been with them all year round, they would be disgusted. It's hard to identify."
"Where is Liu Qing's true body?"
"I secretly returned to Beijing last night, and I should have gone to Bailong Temple at this moment."
The strategist nodded and asked:
"It is not easy to sneak into the room and meet Shufei in public. Did you think of what method he used?"
"There are those who are proficient in the escape skills of the earth. Based on the mountains, rivers and terrain and the softness of the earth and stones, they have found the tunnel dug out by the Liu Mansion, which leads directly to the room from the foot of the mountain."
"Where are our people?"
"It's all ready!"
The two of them were silent and quietly waited for the old man to make a decision.
Even if Liu Qing was caught in bed on the spot, the Li family would never have any good results.
The only hope is that Emperor Longqing was defeated by this news and could not afford to suffer any illness. The crown prince succeeded to the throne.
At that time, the Liu family will definitely be killed. No matter how talented you are and the heroes are, you can only hate Caishikou.
Li Songshan stared at the Dakun map on the wall, and finally placed his gaze on Yingchuan County, and his gaze gradually became fierce.
The Li family was so strong that they could easily abolish a country.
But now he can only live in a county, and was first swept away by the barbarians, and now he is in danger of extermination. Since that is the case, why not give up and fight for the throne?
The prince is weak and can only survive for three or five years at most.
It is not impossible to support a baby emperor and use the emperor to order the ministers to gradually replace him.
"Go and do it."
Li Songshan waved.
"Here!"
The two bowed and turned around and left the secret room.
...
At the foot of Bailong Mountain, there are crowds of people, and there are many people watching the fun.
Zhang Wu originally thought he could go up the mountain, but as a result, a martial monk sealed the road early on. No one except the Liu family's children were allowed to go up the mountain.
But this did not hurt him, he just lost the opportunity to watch the show up close.
This Bailong Mountain is not high, with a height of 500 meters. It is surrounded by cliffs and hills. You can find a high place to look down and see the temple.
When I came to one side of the mountain, there was no one to hold it, because the terrain here was extremely steep and huge rocks were piled up, almost eighty-degree cliffs.
This terrain is difficult to stand firm if you climb higher and the mountain wind blows. If you are not careful, you will fall off the cliff and be crushed to pieces.
Zhang Wu took a deep breath, pressed his hands down in front of his abdomen, circulated his internal strength, and after a moment, he gently lifted his breath and suddenly jumped up.
He seemed to have no weight, and used his hands and feet to leap on the steep cliffs, stepping on the rocks, like walking on flat ground.
There was no place to leverage the force, so he used his hideous black and blue hands to penetrate the rocks, leaving huge five-finger marks, and swung himself up like a gibbon climbing a mountain.
Within a moment, the mountain wind whistled, making his clothes rustle and his breathing squeak.
But Zhang Wu also climbed up the cliff and his eyes suddenly became clear.
"you……"
There was already a middle-aged man on the cliff. When he saw a young man climbing up from the edge of a vertical cliff, he was stunned.
Zhang Wu looked up and felt awe-inspiring in his heart.
I used hard skills to climb the mountain violently, how did the other party get up?
But we are not here to find trouble, and we don’t plan to do it, we just want to watch the show.
In the world, we don’t need to be killed when we meet. Most of the time, we make friends and win over others. We will only end up making money unless it is profitable.
He pretended to be relaxed and patted his robe, Zhang Wu said politely with his fists:
"Senior, I'm really sorry to bother you."
"Who are you……?"
The middle-aged man was shocked and suspicious.
The boy said:
"I am an unknown young man, Zhang Wu, don't know the name of his senior Gao?"
"Zhang Wu?"
If you think carefully about the top experts in the world, there is no such person.
No one is so powerful at a young age.
"Senior, I dare not take it. Guo Tianxu is known as the hero of the mountains and rivers."
"The Hero of Mountains and Rivers?"
Zhang Wu was shocked and quickly gave me the look that I admired you very much, and said with a fiery look:
"So it's a hero. It's better to see it at first sight than to hear it. Today, I'm witnessing your style, and it's true that it's well-known!"
"You're welcome."
Lao Guo laughed and clasped his fists to return the salute, and the slightly tense atmosphere immediately eased.
If you wear a lot of clothes, you won’t wear flattery. If you have a great reputation, you will be respectful to anyone who sees you. Guo Tianxu is very helpful.
Zhang Wu asked in confusion:
"I wonder how you came up with the hero?"
"Look."
Lao Guo pointed cordially in the distance, and he could see the entire Bailong Temple.
There is a slope behind the mountain that winds upwards. At the end is a small platform enshrined with a relic tower and surrounded by walls.
From the relic tower platform to here, you can climb up by crossing the wall and passing through a dense forest.
Zhang Wu's face twitched, and his heart was so bitter that his bile was about to come out.
At this time, Guo Tianxu asked:
"Brother, I see that you have a profound skill and are calm and composed as you climb a cliff. You will definitely become a famous master. I wonder if your master is?"
"I don't have a master, I just serve the court and make a living as a tolerant."
Zhang Wu did not call out Tulong as a name. This guy has a bad reputation in the world and everyone calls him to beat him. He may not be able to have a grudge against this hero.
"tolerance?"
Guo Tianxu felt thoughtful and became more afraid of Zhang Wu.
