Tang Wanzhuang looked at Zhao Changhe's apologetic smile and thought to herself that this guy has always been unruly and lawless. When had he ever shown such an apologetic attitude?
Because Xia Chichi?
It would be a bit troublesome if he was really obsessed with a demon sect girl... But no matter what, in the early stage of cooperation, he must not do anything to alienate him, and we will leave it for later.
She had no intention of making excuses, and slowly got to the point: "The Four Elephants Sect must have come here for the sword in the Ancient Sword Lake. The Four Elephants Sect has also conducted many sacrifices here before, so I guess they
They have indeed found some ways to summon the ancient sword... they may even have summarized some of the habits of the ancient sword."
Zhao Changhe gave her a cup of tea: "What next?"
Tang Wanzhuang looked a little funny at his appearance, and said leisurely: "The imperial court has its own reasons for not taking this sword. The collapse of the last era, the chaos of the universe, formed many space cracks, or dimensional fragments, scattered in all directions. Pass
Inside the crack, there may be a scene from the past, floating alone in the void; or there may be only violent and turbulent currents, and it is impossible to survive at all."
Zhao Changhe understood what he heard: "So the bottom of the Ancient Sword Lake actually leads to a dimensional fragment. It can be said that it no longer exists in this world. No wonder it can't be found after so many years."
"Yes." Tang Wanzhuang was very satisfied with his erudition, otherwise it would not be easy to explain to ordinary people what dimensional fragments are: "If the whole world is not the king's land, does this alien space count? Your Majesty's wish, there is no need to force it.
, waiting for fate. These places often have some ancient secrets, which are also opportunities for people. They cannot stop people from coveting the sky."
Zhao Changhe was surprised: "Is this the idea of an emperor? This shouldn't be... shouldn't he monopolize resources..."
Tang Wanzhuang glanced at him and said nothing.
This really shouldn't be the idea of an emperor. She admired His Majesty's magnanimity. But it didn't seem to be a good thing. With the chaos going on nowadays, Xia Longyuan might have to take some blame for his magnanimity.
It was not suitable for her to talk about His Majesty. She just said: "In short, this is His Majesty's goodwill towards the people, and it is absolutely not false. Although there must be many dangers, there must be heroes who will rise amidst the dangers - Yue Hongling is such a person. She is now relying on
This is not the inheritance of the Sanliu Luoxia Villa."
Zhao Changhe nodded and said: "I understand. Please continue."
"The same is true of the Ancient Sword Lake. We all know that there is an alien space inside, and there is indeed a divine sword hidden in it. The fact that the imperial court did not deliberately retrieve it does not mean that we have not explored it. If anyone feels that the imperial court does not retrieve it, it is
Because it would be wrong to not do it the right way. We knew how to do it, but we found it a bit tricky and didn’t implement it.”
"So what's the problem?"
"That sword was supposed to be the sword of a pair of lovers in ancient times. Before the era collapsed, the man may have been betrayed, and the woman sadly died. However, when the era collapsed, the sword had a spirit, and it tried its best to protect the master's body and isolate the dimension.
Hidden at the bottom of the lake. It was turning summer at that time, which is probably in line with the man's spiritual practice. Taking this opportunity to use some psychic methods, the sword might be able to appear."
Zhao Changhe understood: "The purpose of its appearance is essentially to think that the heartless man is here to kill the heartless man for its master, so it will be very vicious and will kill whoever it sees?"
"That's not the case. Now that you have a dragon bird, you should know that the so-called sword spirit does not really have a self-thinking life, it is just a kind of intention. The master's strong hatred for the heartless man was poured into it before his death. If it can't sense that kind of
It just has the aura of betrayal, and it may not take the initiative to kill people. But if it really notices it, it will definitely kill people, including those who break promises. The judgment given to it is similar." Tang Wanzhuang sighed: "But in this world, can anyone
How many people dare to say that they can prevent it from killing people... So every time it appears, someone loses his life."
Zhao Changhe folded his hands and sat obediently.
He felt like he might be chopped into pieces.
Chi Chi, that dead witch who rarely speaks the truth, is probably also very suspenseful...
Tang Wanzhuang said: "The Four Symbols Sect is very powerful, and they may have found these clues, but after all, they act secretly, and it is unlikely that they can investigate as carefully as we do. There is still a high possibility that they know what is happening but do not know why.
So they either give up, but if they still want to implement it, what do you think they will do?"
Zhao Changhe thought for a while: "Perhaps he was relying on force and thought that someone could get through the murder and stabilize the sword and it would be controllable, so he might find a gentleman to help them get the sword and then steal it."
"Yes, I guess the same, and it is in line with the behavior of the Demon Cult... But this is bad." Tang Wanzhuang said: "Assuming that the sword is willing to be held by a gentleman, it is equivalent to recognizing the new owner. In less than a moment,
The new master has been killed, ask Longque what he thinks."
Long Que: "..."
Zhao Changhe Waterfall Khan.
As the second most arrogant dragon and bird, if it had the ability to move on its own, it would definitely go crazy and chop down everyone present. Especially the opponent's vicious sword full of hatred. Originally, it judged that all the people around it would be attacked.
They are a group of heartless and treacherous people, and they actually killed the new good master, so why don't they go crazy!
Tang Wanzhuang said: "We haven't been able to find out how many masters the Four Symbols Sect has come. They are hiding a bit deep. But to get a sword that is not related to the beliefs of the Four Symbols Sect, it can only be regarded as an ordinary treasure hunt. It is definitely not
As for dispatching powerful people like Suzaku, there are at most many people on the list, so it may not be possible to control the crazy sword..."
"Yes." Zhao Changhe nodded and said: "After all, the sword is not a human being. It does not hurt, is not afraid of injury, and is light and sharp. It is difficult to limit. We still don't know how magical the ancient sword is. If it can really be better than the dragon bird
If you have enough spirituality and can fly around killing people on your own, it will be very, very troublesome."
Tang Wanzhuang nodded: "That's right, and because of its ancient power, it is very likely that this sword will actively kill people. Once it escapes from the restrictions of the Four Symbols Sect and goes out to wreak havoc, Jianhu City may be slaughtered to pieces.
Luo, we don't want to see this matter, we must stop it, these are the details of your mission."
Zhao Changhe asked: "Where are the people from the Four Symbols Sect? Does the Demon Suppressor have any clues? Maybe I can talk to Chichi directly."
"They were cautious. They found out that the Demon Suppression Division had strengthened their strength, so they moved. They did not find a new address in a short time. This is the reason why this task was given to you. You may be able to communicate with Xia Chichi. If you can persuade her to give up this task
It’s best, if you don’t want to give up, you must not use that method.”
Zhao Changhe was worried about Xia Chichi and had no intention to say more. He stood up and cupped his hands and said: "I understand, I will handle this matter well. I'll say goodbye first."
Zhao Changhe left the bamboo building worriedly. Tang Wanzhuang slowly stood on the edge of the railing, leaning on the railing to see his back as he strode away. The breeze blew by, and she coughed softly a few more times.
Finally, a maid came out from nowhere and put a cloak on her: "Miss, since you are here in person, you can just guard the Sword Lake and suppress the Four Symbols Sect so that they can't act rashly. Why do you let him do this?
?He is only at the fourth level of the Profound Entrance. Whether it is the protectors from the Four Symbols Sect or the ancient sword itself, he cannot handle it."
Tang Wanzhuang shook his head slightly: "I will protect him secretly and won't let anything happen to him. This mission is nothing more than giving him a reason to integrate into the Demon Suppression Division. Otherwise, how can I be so easy to talk to the Four Symbols Sect and just stop and act?"
"
"Ah?" The maid was even more confused: "He...since he is not a prince, what's the use of integrating into the Demon Suppression Division?"
"The integration is with the official status, not the Demon Suppression Division. It also allows onlookers to understand my Tang Wanzhuang's judgment that he is the prince." Tang Wanzhuang coughed lightly again, and after a while he whispered: "When all
When people treat him as a prince, he will naturally become a prince, and his denial is meaningless."
The maid quipped: "Miss, does this count as cheating on him? You said that you didn't ask about his identity, but you couldn't care about others. What was your original intention..."
"If asking him to be the emperor is a scam...ahem...then let's forget it." Tang Wanzhuang spread her palms and looked at the blood she coughed up: "After all, my time...is only a few years away.
"
When Zhao Changhe met Tang Wanzhuang in the bamboo house, Han Wubing also met people from the Four Symbols Sect.
"Master Han, do you want a good sword?"
"Not bad, do you have it?"
"I don't have it, but there is it in Gujian Lake."
"The legend is false."
"No, it's true, and we have a way to make it appear. Master Han, you might as well take a look. If it's true, you can take it. If it's not, just leave."
"Who do you need me to kill?" Han Wubing's first reaction was that he killed people just to pay for the murder, otherwise there would be no way for someone to take advantage of him and give him a sword.
"Maitreya teaches Zhang Banfo, you should listen to it."
"He..." Han Wubing pondered for a moment: "It's very difficult. You need to wait until I see the sword before talking about it. Now?"
"The day of the beginning of summer."
"I have an appointment that day, let's change it."
"If Young Master Han has an appointment for a martial arts competition, it can be done in the evening, and the sword can be picked up during the day. There will be no conflict."
Han Wubing thought about it for a long time, but finally his desire for a good sword took over. He nodded and said, "Okay, then how can I find you in Lixia?"
"Young master, you will know when you come to the lakeside." The man said sincerely and slowly backed away.
