Immortality, treasures, secrets inherited by seven bloodlines, the Huangfu family... Although a lot of things are mixed together, and they seem to be true and false, but first -
"There are three questions."
Lu Hanjiang put away his crossbow and sat down on the ground opposite Baidu: "First, how do you know this?"
Di He stroked his long beard, with a hint of reminiscence in his tone: "Back then, the old man and a few like-minded friends traveled around the world, and by chance, they discovered this secret together."
"I see."
Although he had no proof, Lu Hanjiang had a hunch that among these so-called like-minded friends, eighty percent of them included the old guy Yanshi. But why were the methods of immortality they said so different?
After suppressing the doubts in his heart for the time being, Lu Hanjiang asked again: "Then the second question, old man, are you colluding with people in the imperial court?"
This time Di He was silent for a long time, and then asked indifferently: "Why do you say this, sir?"
"The way you talk reminds me of a friend I once had, his name is Qiao Shifang." Lu Hanjiang said.
Di He frowned and said after a while: "The old man doesn't recognize this person."
"Thousands of Jinyi guards, Qiao Shifang." Lu Hanjiang added another sentence.
A flash of realization flashed in Di He's eyes: "A disciple of Bai Mei?"
"Ah."
Lu Hanjiang chuckled. Just a simple answer could tell a lot. From the beginning, he felt that the way the poisonous man spoke was a bit strange, but more of it was familiar.
Although I don't want to admit it, people in the world are more like Caiwei. When they want your help, they will directly slap you, and then forcefully pull you to slay demons and defend the way, or draw their swords when they disagree.
Xiang Xiang, where can such nonsense come from.
This old man is tainted with too much aura that does not belong to the world, and his plans are a bit sneaky, and Lu Hanjiang happens to be good at this.
"Since he is one of our own, Dion should stop hiding it. When did Luo Fuzi get in touch with you, or in other words, when did you guys all join His Highness Yu's command?"
Lu Hanjiang planned to have a frank talk, and Dion saw this. He first expressed his position: "What you said is wrong. Although the goals are the same, the rivers and lakes are rivers and lakes, and the court is the court."
"Why should Dion deceive himself? Do you believe what he says?" Lu Hanjiang looked at him sarcastically and said.
However, Di He said: "Why does that old guy Baimei want to support His Highness to rise to power? The old man doesn't understand, but for us, this is the fastest way."
As he spoke, Di He pointed to his white hair and sighed: "We have no time. How can we collect these seven 'treasures' in the limited time without the help of the imperial court?"
.”
"Why do you say that?"
Lu Hanjiang narrowed his eyes and asked, "You guys can't even deal with seven down-and-out families, right?"
If this guy is not talking nonsense, then 80% of the treasures of the Hongchen guest just mentioned are also among these seven sequences. Not to mention that all future generations have been reduced to the level of having their hands and legs cut off and thrown into the street, even if
The seven bloodline families are all calculated according to the level of the Huangfu family, and they are not to the point where they have to rely on the imperial court.
"But the key to immortality is something from the outside world. This essential jade stone is held by the royal family, and--"
Di He let out a weird laugh: "Don't you understand, sir? Even people like us in the mountains and plains long for immortality. How can that high-ranking Nine-Five-year-old man not be tempted?"
Lu Hanjiang raised his eyebrows. When the old man said there was no time, could it be that he also included the emperor's time?
"This matter is hidden, but not everyone in the court knows about it. At least your superior, Commander Meng Yuanmeng, must know about it."
As Di He spoke, he smiled charmingly: "The old man doesn't know where your Majesty learned about the method of immortality, but the old man can tell you that he will definitely not succeed."
"..."
It was hard for Lu Hanjiang to comment on this. Yanshi's struggle before his death was still lingering in his memory. According to his calculations, this so-called method of immortality was 90% unreliable.
But what Old Man Di He said seemed to be more than that.
"If you don't get involved in this matter, it's really hard to predict His Majesty's destiny, but now -"
Di He gave a disdainful sneer: "Life and death are determined by destiny, the way of heaven is determined, and human lifespan will eventually come to an end. If you want to live forever, you have to fight against heaven and earth. Your Majesty wants to live forever based on just a piece of paper...
.... Ridiculous, ridiculous.”
Although Di He spoke arrogantly, Lu Hanjiang did not take it seriously. In his opinion, these people were just half-measured goods.
But one thing he had to admit was that the old man's words were not entirely without merit. Let's not mention whether he could live forever, but if he failed, he might become something neither human nor ghost.
Although Yan Shi was poisoned to death by his grandson, the cause of his death was not just poisoning. Lu Hanjiang had someone check him out before he put away the body. The old man did not die of physical failure, but because of too much energy and blood.
, the recoil caused his heart and lungs to explode and he died.
In other words, if His Majesty in the palace really uses Yanshi's method to try to live forever, then I am afraid that Mr. Meng's worries are overblown, and the old emperor may not be able to survive the second experiment at all.
Once the emperor dies, it is not known whether the world will be in chaos, but the capital should soon be stable, because if Yanshi's Seven-Star Destiny Technique is used to try to live forever, then when the old emperor dies, the seven princes will go down together to accompany him
.
in this case......
A glint flashed in Lu Hanjiang's eyes. It turned out that this was where Luo Fuzi's confidence lay. He pointed out that through this matter, all the male members of the royal family's direct lineage had been wiped out from top to bottom. In this way, only Yu was left who could inherit the throne.
His Highness is alone. Of course, the premise is that the real "His Highness Yu" is still alive.
With some thought in his mind, Lu Hanjiang asked calmly: "How did you know that His Majesty would take action because of this..."
He didn't say the rest of the words, which was disrespectful.
However, what disappointed Lu Hanjiang was that Di He also knew little about it. He said: "The old man with white eyebrows said that the emperor will definitely die. When the time comes, I will wait for His Highness Xiang to ascend the throne. After that, he will take the seven pieces from the royal family.
A piece of jade, this is what the great sages say is something beyond the heavens, and it is the key to longevity."
Well, these words sound a bit familiar. The last person who colluded with the imperial court and dreamed of immortality was Bei Mingzi.
Having almost guessed Di He's ending, Lu Hanjiang smiled and said, "Then the last question remains, why do you tell me this?"
Di He said in a deep voice: "Because our strength alone is not enough. Bai Mei has no way to deal with the affairs of the court. We need the help of the Jin Yiwei."
"Dion, you can't do business with just one person," Lu Hanjiang blinked: "If you want me, the Jin Yiwei, to help, what price can you pay?"
"You can take any of the high officials, generous salaries, and powerful positions you want as long as His Highness ascends the throne."
Lu Hanjiang thought Di He was farting, which was completely untrue, but what he said next was somewhat interesting.
"Besides, this is not only helping us, but also helping you."
Di He took out a token from his arms and engraved the words Xuantian Sect on the door: "Do you think the appearance of Xuantian Sect in Miao territory is just an accident?"
"Please ask Dion to clarify your doubts?"
"Years ago, Xuehua Palace stole a sacred object from Miao territory, called the Holy Spirit Gu Insect. It was extremely difficult to make. Since the birth of the first Gu Insect, subsequent generations have been unable to reproduce it. It has been the only one in history.
One, and the key is that this object is not only one of the seven secret treasures of immortality passed down from generation to generation by the Lingyue clan, but also has extremely special significance to the Miao people in the Miao land."
Di He said in a serious tone: "If this thing is captured by the Xuantian Sect, it will be difficult to say whether the Miao territory will listen to the imperial orders in the future."
