That slight finger pointed to the room where Shu Zai was currently. Without any further explanation, Tang Bin already knew that the target Duan Yueyao was referring to was the main martial artist of the Lin family.
Although Tang Bin was initially weighing which force to attack, when Duan Yueyao pointed out through Ikari that the target was the magician, he immediately figured out the key.
The four ghost painting kings are an open presence in Kuocheng. Perhaps their own strength is hidden, but these four forces are actually on the surface.
In addition, the forces lurking in the dark are the two men of the Lin family, Zuo Feng and the others, and the unidentified mysterious god-refining stage powerhouse.
On the surface, the four major families check and balance each other. They will not act easily. It is of little significance to attack them. On the contrary, it is easy to put yourself in a dangerous situation.
The mysterious old man in the God Refining Stage and his group are too mysterious. Now we don’t know their origins, let alone their purpose in the city, and there is no way to start.
Then only the two groups of the Lin family are left. The situation of Captain Lin's group is clearer. Not only does he understand the opponent's whereabouts, but he also has internal cooperation.
But the more this happens, there is no need to rush to attack them, especially now that they have learned that Captain Lin's side is obviously weaker than the magician's group.
Since this is the case, the only thing left in front of us is the Lin family's surname. This is the best goal that can be obtained after weighing all the forces. It can also be said to be the only goal.
After a slight hesitation, Tang Bin immediately asked, "Did Miss Duan point out how to throw this stone, or what exactly should be used as a stone?"
"A letter!" Ikari had a smile on her face, as if she was very satisfied with Duan Yueyao's methods.
…
"Alone?" Yin Zhong looked puzzled and looked at the old man in front of him blankly.
The "Dark Forest Law" that the old man Yin Yue just talked about has been connected with the situation in Kuocheng in front of him, but the action steps formulated by the old man still make Yin Zhong unclear about its meaning.
At this moment, the old man Yin Yue's complexion has improved significantly, but the paleness and weakness caused by the injury still cannot be completely concealed.
However, in the deep eyes of the old man, there is a faint wisdom brought by the vicissitudes of life. Maybe in normal times, the old man would not bother to explain anything to the young man, but the situation is different now. The old man must rely on the strength of the young man.
So he could only speak more clearly.
"Right now, Kuocheng is in a state of balance. If this balance is not broken, then all forces, whether overt or covert, will not be able to take action."
Although the young man felt that the old man's words were a bit redundant, now that he understood the "law of the dark forest", he also understood that in this environment, smart people would not act rashly.
However, he still pretended to be open-minded and receptive, nodding his head gently and cooperating with the old man to continue speaking.
The old man's voice sounded again, and he said slowly: "Under this delicate balance, all parties are actually secretly accumulating strength, and their spirits are also in a high degree of tension. Once a special 'accident' occurs,
If one thing affects the whole body, the entire balance will be broken.
At this time, you need to help them choose a venting goal in advance. At the same time, this goal should make them think that the subsequent actions will not break the existing balance."
Although this analysis and narration is not very clear, the young man is not stupid. Following this line of thinking, he gradually understood the old man's intention.
After pondering for a while, Yin Zhong asked tentatively: "I don't know if Master Yue Shi has already thought of the target, whether it is the ones you investigated before, the ones I was responsible for investigating, or the man and woman who caused trouble tonight.
"
When he heard the young man's initial words, a strange look flashed in the old man's eyes. Because he hadn't mentioned it yet, the other party had roughly guessed which party the target belonged to.
But after listening to the young man's words, the strange look in the old man's eyes immediately disappeared, replaced by a touch of contempt, and said coldly: "It is not a man or a woman who is causing trouble. Now there is only that one woman."
It seemed that the thought of the woman aroused the anger in the old man's chest, and he coughed heavily before continuing: "After the four families join forces to repair the formation, I believe that the entire Kuocheng's defense will be strengthened immediately. People outside
Don't expect to enter easily again.
Just that one woman in her nurturing period can't stir up any trouble at all. When the situation in Kuocheng is stable, she can be wiped out with a flick of her hand."
The young man looked calm on the surface, but in his heart he was sneering and muttering secretly.
'It's not because you can't find the other person. Otherwise, with your character of retribution, how could you easily let that woman go? What can be easily wiped out in the end, but in the end, she will have to suffer under your crotch*.'
Although he was thinking this in his mind, Yin Zhong nodded modestly on the surface, pretending to be surprised and said: "Your Excellency, Yue Shi, has a well-thought-out plan, but my subordinates are not very talented and intelligent. As long as they follow your instructions, there will be no problem."
The old man Yin Yue was very satisfied with the young man's answer. A strong person like him hated it most when his subordinates did their own thing behind his back. What he wanted was obedience and execution.
"I need someone. To be precise, I need a dead person. I haven't figured out the identity of this dead person yet, but I have already thought about where this person should die. Well, let me weigh it again."
The old man pondered for a moment and spoke slowly with his eyebrows furrowed.
Hearing what the old man said, Yin Zhong couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but he didn't dare to say anything else. He leaned over to say goodbye and was about to leave.
But the old man stopped the young man before he was about to leave and said: "It is not convenient for us to stay here now, so we must find another place. If the plan succeeds, I don't know what kind of chaos this pot of porridge in Kuocheng will become."
Looks like, staying here will only make us sink deeper.
If you go find a suitable place to stay, it is best not to be within the sphere of influence of any of the four major families, but somewhere that is easily accessible and will not attract attention."
Seeing Yin Zhong's embarrassed look, the old man said unceremoniously: "You came to southern Xuanwu half a year ago. Don't tell me that you haven't established contact with some small families and forces. If it's such a trivial matter,
If it doesn't work out, I think you won't have to stay in Kuocheng."
This time the old man did not release any killing intent, but Yin Zhong believed that if he denied it, the other party would probably kill him directly.
Not daring to say any more, Yin Zhong clasped his fists slightly and saluted deeply, then slowly stepped back, and did not turn around until he was more than two feet away.
Looking coldly at the young man's disappearing figure until he was sure that the other party had completely left, the old man put his hand to his mouth and coughed violently.
When the old man took his hand away, he revealed blood stains on his lips and corners. He slowly opened his palm, and there was a pool of thick blood in his palm. The color was still very fresh.
On the surface, the old man suppressed the injury completely and seemed to have almost recovered. However, in fact, his injury was much more serious than it seemed.
In fact, when the young man Yin Zhong proposed contacting the sect, the old man was already a little moved. But he knew what kind of punishment the sect would give him, which he couldn't bear, so he must do everything he could to solve the problem in Kuocheng.
matter.
…
Around the weird stone forest formation in the center of the city, the light of the runes gradually faded away and retreated towards the four jade formations. At the same time, the brilliance within the formation also gradually converged, and the surface of the stone pillars
The runes circling around it are also gradually disappearing.
After a while, everything returned to calm, except for the figures around the square. At this time, there were still faint aura fluctuations coming from the body.
They use formation jade to drive formations. Although individuals do not need to have extremely high attainments in rune formations, they do have considerable demands on cultivation and spiritual energy consumption.
The four generals of the Gui Hua Su Wang family were each in a corner. Facing the peaceful city defense formation, the four generals all had a look of responsibility on their faces.
Everyone knew in their hearts that for Kuocheng, for their respective families, and even for the entire south of Xuanwu, a brutal fight would inevitably happen between them.
The repair formation in front of us will be the last time for four people and four families to cooperate. No one knows when the battle will break out, and no one knows the final result of that fight.
"It is an opportunity for all of you to gather here today. If some things can be explained clearly in person, it will be a blessing for the city and Xuanwu." After pondering, the leader of the Su family slowly spoke and broke the silence.
Even the Wang family, who firmly stood on the same side as the Su family, was slightly surprised that Su Jian said such words at this time. However, the leader of the Wang family, Wang Xiao, did not say anything, but showed a hint of contemplation.
Guiyun, the leader of the Gui family, was also surprised, but he didn't say anything more. Instead, he turned to look at the painting inquiringly.
Just like the Pixel King family, headed by Su Jian of the Su family, the Ghost Painting family now basically makes decisions based on painting shapes. This form is actually determined by the strength of each party.
The Su family's strength was originally stronger than that of the Wang family. Later, a leader of the Wang family was killed in an action against the painter. Now, the strength is naturally not as strong as that of the Su family.
Although the painter lost his painting skills, his painting style is comparable to that of a master, and his strength is certainly superior to that of the Gui family.
With a calm expression and a soft smile, Hua Xing nodded and said: "Since Commander Su Jian has learned something, I am naturally all ears to listen."
With a slight frown on his brow, Su Jian said: "I don't dare to take it seriously. It's just that ferocious beasts are raging outside Kuocheng. If the four of us can work together to eliminate the trouble first, I believe that internal worries will not be a big problem by then."
"Haha" he clapped his hands and laughed, and said loudly: "Commander Su Jian is really kind and righteous. At this moment, he is still thinking about the safety of the empire and the mainland. He is really an example for us to follow!"
