Li Shentong and Yuxu have been good friends for many years. When Yuxu gave Li Shentong wine through Zhao Changhe, it was meant to support Zhao Changhe and let Li Shentong show him how to exercise. Li Shentong really gave him face, just because he was just a person.
A pot of wine, I really ordered a little or two, it is quite like the style of high mountains and flowing water.
Therefore, even if Li Shentong didn't know everything about Yuxu's affairs, at least he knew some of the key matters.
In fact, at that time, because Zhao Changhe helped him cover up the robbery of official grain, Li Shentong also said that he owed Zhao Changhe a favor and could do something for him. Zhao Changhe thought that Yue Hongling was being hunted in Bashu, so he entrusted him to take care of Yue Hongling.
.In the end, because Yue Hongling's people were all in the Miao territory and there was no need for Li Shentong's care, the commission was not completed. Li Shentong said that it could be mentioned again in the future.
If we follow the moral principles of the world, Zhao Changhe could have made the request directly this time, but both parties seemed to have forgotten about it in a tacit understanding, and no one mentioned it.
Because the current matter is no longer a personal matter, both parties need to be responsible for the entire force, and it cannot be exchanged for favors. If you talk about it, you are asking for trouble.
But just asking Li Shentong to go out alone was just the right thing, and there is no need to say more about the tacit understanding.
Li Shentong didn't mention this either. He gnawed steamed buns with Zhao Changhe and said as if making a casual conversation: "I think you should know that there are some gods and demons...or we don't call them gods and demons, which is boring, but they are actually Yu Jingqiang.
Or, they are the luck of cultivating or the power of faith. They are mainly realized through the spread of sects in the human world. You have been so deeply involved with the Four Symbols Sect, you should understand."
Not only did Zhao Changhe understand the secret, but he also directly benefited from it.
Now that the Four Symbols Religion is the state religion, he has absorbed a lot of the power of faith spread because he is the New Night Emperor. Even when he forged the sword and broke the three-level secret on the spot, he gathered the power of energy and faith to break it in one go.
; And it has only been a short time since breaking the third level of secrets, and I have already tried to break the imperial guard. The speed of accumulation of this practice has a lot to do with the growing power of faith.
The person who has benefited the most from the Four Symbols Religion is Sanniang. She not only accepted the Four Symbols Xuanwu belief, but also the Poseidon belief. Now that the belief is widely spread overseas, her practice speed is probably the most outrageous.
"So what Sect Master Li means is that Yuxu will participate in the worldly struggle for the sake of competing for sectarian beliefs?"
"Yu Xu has already reached the half-step imperial realm a long time ago, and now he has broken through the imperial realm. He has his own pride. He has always resented being driven by Taoist masters to do this and that, and refused to participate in these. There are many Taoist sects in the world.
For example, when Taiyi Sect returned to the dust and so on, there was no need for Yuxu to do anything. The Taoist sect would naturally be prosperous, and the Taoist Master would not force Yuxu too much, so we would be at peace with each other." Li Shentong sighed: "But then something happened.
There are two questions, both related to you."
Zhao Changhe roughly knew what it was.
Sure enough, I heard Li Shen's channel: "First of all, Yuxu didn't have to preach before. A big excuse was because of the Heavenly Book. When you took the Heavenly Book, Yuxu didn't even stop him, not to mention whether it would lead to him and Taoist Master.
The rebellion will at least make it difficult for him to find reasons to refuse other matters."
Zhao Changhe was silent. It was a moment of pleasure to seize the Book of Heaven, so he really didn't think too much about other people's affairs. Yuxu had to bear a lot of burdens for himself here.
Because when the blind man took action, the other party felt that it was the blind man who had snatched the Book of Heaven and not him, Zhao Changhe, and they did not dare to cause trouble to the blind man, otherwise they would have already come to him. But not to cause trouble for him, Zhao Changhe and the blind man does not mean that they will not find Yu.
Yuxu is troublesome. One can imagine the stalemate in the relationship between Yuxu and Dao Zun in the past two years. The more Dao Zun recovers, the more uncomfortable Yuxu becomes. It’s really not good to ask him to do something else now.
Rejected.
Li Shentong said again: "Secondly, Xia Longyuan originally destroyed Buddhism, and the Four Symbols Sect was a demonic sect in the dark. The Taoist sect was the only one in the world, so it's okay. Now that Xia Longyuan is dead, Buddhism is showing signs of recovery, and the Four Symbols Sect is showing signs of recovery.
The religion has become the state religion again, preaching openly and openly, and the Taoist sect's status suddenly becomes precarious. Even if Taoist Master doesn't say anything, as the highest representative of the Taoist sect in this world, Yuxu should have done something."
It seems that Xia Longyuan's death was their fault, and he, Zhao Changhe, was actually protecting Xia. But the so-called connection refers to the relationship between the Four Symbols Sect and Zhao Changhe, and he, Zhao Changhe, is the Night Emperor of the Four Symbols Sect.
Indeed, both questions are directly related to Zhao Changhe, which is also directly related to today's Han Dynasty.
In other words, it would be extremely reasonable and reasonable for Yuxu to directly step down and support the Li family, and he wouldn't be blamed at all.
No wonder Li Shentong wanted to attack Hanzhong before, but these days the fire has stopped and he needs to go out as an envoy. That is because of the strong relationship between Yuxu and Li Shentong, it is possible for Guanlong and Bashu to merge, not
In the old impression, Li Shentong will definitely hit the top.
Thinking of this, Zhao Changhe broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he was not lazy and went straight to the southwest as soon as the North Land was settled. If Li Shentong and the Li family were to join forces, it would be a big trouble. The Qin and Han template of Guanlong and Bashu being integrated
, everyone knows how terrible it is.
The reason why we haven't united yet is of course because the issue of the Hu people is blocking us and Li Shentong cannot unite.
Li Shentong knew from Zhao Changhe's expression that he understood, and said: "The contact between Yuxu and the Li family is also stuck due to the Hu people. Yuxu hopes that the Li family will reject the Hu people, so that they can cooperate with all their strength, and now both parties
I have no way of knowing in real time what the outcome of the negotiation is. So you have a lot to do here. If you do well, you might be able to cooperate with Yuxu to defeat the barbarians first."
Yue Hongling couldn't help but ask: "Does the Shiwai Sect also care about Hu Han?"
Li Shentong shook his head: "No one jumps out of the cracks in the rocks. Yuxu also had a home before he became a monk. Do you think he lost his home?"
I see... Yue Hongling nodded and said no more.
Li Shentong added: "What's more, the Hu people are confident in immortality, and they also have conflicts on sect matters. If you have become a monk, your past grudges will be like clouds of smoke, but this thing cannot be reconciled. But then again, just talking about this
On the other hand, they can cooperate. At least Dao Zun will think that they can cooperate. As long as they push you guys away first, the belief in Changshengtian cannot win over Daoists in China. He will have such confidence."
Zhao Changhe nodded slightly: "Yes, the thoughts of gods and demons are different from those of human beings. Senior Yuxu is still a human being after all, but Taoist Master's perspective may not be the same..."
Lishen Channel: "In other words, once Tao Zun pressures Yuxu to put down his personal grudges, their cooperation will be easily established. Now it is completely supported by Yuxu's tone. If you really think that Kunlun is not involved in the struggle for hegemony, how can you and Beihu
When you are beaten to death, Tao Zun will give you a slap from behind, and you will know what it means to be dumbfounded."
Zhao Changhe clasped the table gently and pondered for a long time, and said in a low voice: "Thank you very much, Sect Master Li, for informing me... In this case, I really should meet Senior Yuxu first."
Li Shentong suddenly laughed: "You dare to go to Kunlun? When Dao Zun sees you stepping into the range, he might kill you without saying a word. And besides Dao Zun, you also know that Kunlun is in chaos, and other forces are fighting against it.
You don’t have any good intentions either. To you, that place is like a dragon’s pond and a tiger’s den.”
"I really don't dare to go to Kunlun...it's not the right time." Zhao Changhe said calmly: "But I dare to go to Chang'an."
Li Shentong was startled, and Zhao Changhe continued: "Senior Yuxu has a lot of messy things going on behind his back, and someone is secretly targeting them... He will want to know, and this is the basis of my conversation with him. Sect Leader Li and Yuxu
We are friends with you, seniors, so you might as well help send a message and see you all in Chang'an."
Li Shentong became serious: "Someone is targeting Yuxu?"
Zhao Changhe said: "It may not be aimed at him, but it must be detrimental to him. I know that under the pressure of Dao Zun, it is impossible to persuade Senior Yuxu with righteousness alone, but since his own life and death are involved, I can
Talk about.”
Li Shentong suddenly smiled and said: "You know how to persuade me with righteousness?"
Zhao Changhe said: "I did not state any great righteousness to Sect Master Li, but Sect Master Li had righteousness in his heart, so he was deeply touched by many things I said."
Li Shentong nodded: "Have you ever thought that what you are talking about is just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water?"
"which aspect?"
"For example, dividing acres of land into equal acres is more cumbersome and not too difficult. However, once there is a sale, mergers will occur over time. And if land sales are prohibited, isn't it unnatural and just an ideal?"
Zhao Changhe nodded: "Indeed. But it can be delayed."
Li Shentong stared into his eyes: "Looking at your attitude, you have had these thoughts in your mind, but you just refused to say them?"
Zhao Changhe said: "It's not that I refuse to say it. I do have a lot of ideas in my mind, but I also need to do more research. I can't even figure out the current yield per mu. I have seen too little, and I have too little information.
, just looking at it in such a superficial way will make you foam at the mouth, it is irresponsible and irresponsible. In today's situation, no one has the time and energy, so it would be good if we can postpone it first."
Li Shentong showed a smile: "Very good. You didn't boast."
Zhao Changhe said sincerely: "These are important matters for the national economy and people's livelihood. Any rhetoric may bring disastrous consequences. I can only say that there are some directions to think about. More specific things require long-term research. If Sect Master Li is interested, we can think about it together."
"
Lishen Channel: "Then your so-called open education, where everyone has the skills to practice and books to read, is it just a so-called direction, or can it be said to be just an expectation? I thought about it at night, but I can't actually do it..."
"If Sect Leader Li himself is willing to give strong support, then the main reason why it can't be done is because paper and printing can't keep up..." Zhao Changhe said: "But as long as you know where the difference is, you can think about it in this direction, right... In the world
Not everyone is practicing martial arts. I think the technology of sea ships is already very strong. If we can gather relevant craftsmen and come up with ideas, it can be solved sooner or later. Hmm... It would be more appropriate for me to solve this matter from Beijing later. Li
If the sect leader is interested, he will be the first to promote it to Bashu."
Zhao Changhe's first words made Li Shentong's eyes change. What he said was that he couldn't do it even if he thought about it at night, but he just felt that he couldn't do it because he hadn't figured out why. Zhao Changhe said it right away.
.This profoundly proves that Zhao Changhe is really not just drawing the pie casually, but has long had a comprehensive idea.
As for whether you can do it or not, it's actually not that important.
He was silent for a long time, and finally stood up: "Yuxu is at the viewing platform of Chang'an Tower right now. You don't need me to confirm the appointment. You can go on your own. As for me, I won't go with you. If you die in Chang'an,
, don’t mention anything.”
Situ Xiao couldn't help but said: "Master..."
Li Shentong glared at him, and then said to Zhao Changhe: "We need King Zhao's help for two things right now. Let's go after that. One is to find out the Tingxue Tower Sword Slave, and the other is to ask King Zhao to organize the people of the original Suppressing Demon Division.
This seat is useful."
This was said more and more rudely, as if Zhao Changhe should help him with things, but Zhao Changhe laughed happily: "Okay, let's do it now."
Li Shentong stared at him deeply, turned around and grabbed Situ Xiao: "Let's go, there are a lot of things to do, who allows you to eat noodles here endlessly?"
Watching Situ Xiao being dragged and stumbling away, Yue Hongling finally laughed: "Situ's behavior in the sect is very different from that in the world. He is quite heroic in the world, and he doesn't even dare to breathe in front of his master."
Zhao Changhe didn't even finish the steamed buns, and continued to eat the steamed buns: "It's just because I was suppressed by the master in the sect that I became so promiscuous in the world. He also recited poems when he appeared on stage, which is better than some... literary talents."
blind:"?"
Yue Hongling nodded: "Sect Leader Li is very powerful, his eyes are glaring, and his murderous intent is so fierce that most people can't handle it."
Zhao Changhe smiled and said: "I don't think you are timid either."
Yue Hongling said: "Then you were so honest and willing to help him in the end because you were cowardly?"
"Because for a man like him, the less polite he is to you and asking you to help, the more he treats you as a friend, which is a good thing." Zhao Changhe said: "Especially if you really ask me to organize the Demon Suppression Division, you know what this is.
What do you mean?"
"He organized the Demon Suppression Division, and he controls it. What does that mean? You can't say that this is the Dahan Demon Suppression Division's branch office in Shu, right?"
"That's different." Zhao Changhe said with a smile: "Because it is the Demon Suppression Division organized by me, and it is normal for them to be responsible for me. No one can define what they can report to me and what they cannot. There are a lot of sidelines to play.
.If they can't say anything to me, then they won't ask me to organize the Demon Suppression Division. If they cross the bridge and draw a wall, it would be tantamount to turning against me. Do you think he has this idea?"
Yue Hongling was startled and her expression changed.
On the surface, it seems that this means in-depth cooperation with Zhao Changhe, but in a sense... does this mean a hint of surrender?
As for that? Just your few words?
Zhao Changhe finished the steamed buns in a few licks and stood up: "I'm going to do some work for Bashu to suppress the Demon Division. You need to rest first. I'm afraid there will be a bloody battle when we get to Chang'an."
Seeing Zhao Changhe running away full of energy, Yue Hongling shook her head and laughed. She really didn't follow him and just sat on the pavilion to practice.
She really felt a little turbulent in energy and a feeling of concentration of soul. Zhao Changhe noticed this and told her to rest peacefully.
When following him, I do feel like I can't get involved in many things, can't help, can't provide opinions, and am just a pure guard. But in my heart, I don't feel that this deviates from my own preferences at all, let alone boring. On Jianghu
Xingxia, he helps more people like this; when it comes to increasing his knowledge, the knowledge around him is much more novel than the stories of rivers and lakes; when it comes to swordsmanship practice, nowadays, the horizons are wider and the swordsmanship is more profound. Yue Hongling always feels that this is more similar than his own experience of breaking the sword.
A right path.
Maybe he can break the imperial rule earlier than Zhao Changhe... After all, some things may sound ordinary to him, but may sound earth-shattering to others, and may touch too much.
Of course, the most important thing is that she feels at peace as long as she is around him. Watching him talk to the leader of the party, Senior Tianbang, and forcefully describe the other party as one of his own, Yue Hongling feels more accomplished than winning a bloody battle.
.
Kendo and kendo are different.
Yue Hongling once received part of the inheritance from the Sword Emperor, and it may be a later inheritance. Everyone has agreed in the past. Maybe in the future, a trip to the Sword Emperor's Mausoleum will be needed to confirm this cause and effect.
And what is the Sword King?
In the past, at the end of the road, I might be called the Sword God, or the Sword Saint. But if I were called the Sword King... would I be called the Sword King if all swords bowed my head? If so, can someone else's sword be used by me?
Just like what Zhao Changhe is doing now...is this the Emperor's Sword?
While Yue Hongling was practicing, the sword energy behind her was gradually dissipating.
The guards in the guest house in the distance suddenly felt that their swords and waist knives began to tremble. They were shocked and stretched out their hands to press it, but the tremor became more and more serious and they could not hold it down at all.
"Clang, clang, clang!" Countless crisp sounds came at the same time, and swords within a few miles around were unsheathed and shot straight into the air.
Then he moved towards the guest house, shaking slightly, as if he was bowing from a distance.
Wan Jian Chao Huang.
The shadow of a huge ancient sword suddenly shot straight into the sky, and the sky was filled with red clouds. In the sword, the baby who had just taken shape for two days opened his eyes.
Yue Hongling had been stuck in the half-step imperial state for some time, but on this peaceful and peaceful morning, she suddenly broke through.
Li Shentong, who was still on the way back home with his apprentice in hand, looked back in shock. The master and apprentice were dumbfounded as they looked at the shadow of the sword in the sky.
Where did this monster come from? We just talked a few words in the past two days, and you were there to listen, and you broke the barrier?
That Situ Xiao was listening the whole time, why didn't he even move a hair?
Are these two people sent by God to attack people?
Zhao Changhe stood in a corner somewhere, looking back and smiling slightly.
He was not surprised by this. Yue Hongling was almost stuck on that layer of window paper. Breakthroughs at any time were not unusual. All she needed was an opportunity. But he didn't expect that the conversation in the past two days could become an opportunity for her...
...What a genius... People say that I am a genius, but I am actually quite good at it. Putting aside the cheats, I am not that outrageous. My sister-in-law is the real genius, a unique pervert in this world.
"Blind blind."
"What are you doing again?"
"When you sent me to Zhao's house and saw Hong Ling for the first time, was that intentional?"
The blind man said angrily: "You took the position yourself, it's none of my business."
"The position card I drew is only related to the throne, and it should probably be on Chi Chi. But how to cut it in, the right to interpret is yours. No matter how you arrange my encounter with Chi Chi, you don't have to appear in Zhao Cuo to see Hong first.
Ling."
"Oh, you've got a brain." The blind man said lazily: "It's nothing. As long as you know how to look at Qi, you should also know that she is the protagonist of this era. There is nothing strange about throwing you next to the protagonist. But now you
The fate of the protagonist is more obvious, after all, the protagonist has been killed by you."
Zhao Changhe stopped talking to her and kept silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Since the Sword Emperor's inheritance is the protagonist, it means there are still very important things on the Sword Emperor's side."
The blind man was caught off guard and revealed his secret, and immediately shut up.
"Your Highness." A man came out from the corner of the street and saluted Zhao Changhe quietly: "Why do you want to meet us secretly?"
The elites of the Demon-Suppressing Division are hiding in Chengdu and have not been evacuated. These are truly elites. They dare to stay under the nose of King Daxi like Li Shentong. They are truly loyal and brave. But there has been no one in the past two months.
The organization contacted them, and now seeing His Highness King Zhao secretly contacting them is like meeting the backbone.
Is this the imperial court finally going to regain Bashu? But we really can't collect much information these days. It's too dangerous here... Just last night, we were dragged out and killed an unknown number of people, and we can't even count them.
As a result, the first thing the mastermind said frightened them to death: "Follow me to see Li Shentong. The Demon Suppression Division is reopened. The first thing to do is to monitor the land and prevent officials from committing illegal acts."
The spies looked around with their heads raised. What flag was planted over the city gate?
Isn’t that still the great cauldron flag of Shenhuang Sect? It hasn’t changed!
Having said that, no one has been able to move the big tripod inserted by Zhao Changhe at the city gate. Pedestrians coming and going will stop and watch it. It has become a scene at the city gate and everyone calls it King Zhao's tripod.
It is said that this will hinder traffic, and in theory, it is King Zhao's show of power against Bashu, and it will damage Li Shentong's face. It should be very easy for Li Shentong to pull out the tripod personally, but he has not moved it yet... This is
