Hengshan, Julu area, Qilin Association headquarters.
"Hey, have you heard? Brother Jiehan went out without permission and was ambushed and taken away."
"What! How could this happen!"
"Before, someone outside pretended to be our Qilin Society and massacred ordinary businessmen. The leader has ordered that no action can be taken without her permission. But Brother Jiehan..."
"The despicable method must be the empire's notorious snare organization."
"Then what should we do now? Brother Jiehan is trapped. We can't just leave him alone, right?"
"I don't know, the leaders are already discussing it."
The news from outside spread rapidly in the headquarters base, and many disciples of the Qilin Society were worried about Jie's situation.
In the secret room of the machine, Nong Yu, Ju Shuang and others were standing around the table, and a detailed layout plan of the Qilin Society's headquarters base was spread out.
Ju Shuang's eyes fell on the map, but her thoughts were not here. She held down the Ziyun Sword lying flat on the table and said worriedly: "Nongyu, is there really no problem with Li Si? Jie's safety..."
"Don't worry, sister, nothing will happen to you." Nong Yu looked into Gu Shuang's eyes and pursed her lips with a smile, "Li Si, he will never harm Jie's life."
She said it very confidently, and this unreasonable confidence made others a little confused.
"You know people but don't know their hearts, let alone someone like Li Si. Even if the young master leaves an explanation, there is no guarantee that Li Si will not have different intentions."
"Lord Ju Shuang, after he injured Bai Geng Sword, he was surrounded by Tian Meng himself and his men. Under great pressure, he fought with Sui Yang Sword, but was eventually defeated and captured."
Bai Feng explained the battle situation to Ju Shuang and analyzed, "Tian Meng captured Jie alive. Li Si's purpose must be to find our headquarters through Jie. Li Si will not kill Jie, and Jie also knows what he wants to do.
I won’t give up my life easily.”
Ju Shuang frowned, his head lowered slightly, and he tilted his head to look at the person leaning on the corner.
As Jie's father, Fang Fang was just sleeping with his sword in his arms and did not make any remarks.
"Hmm~" Ju Shuang hummed softly, took a breath and turned to look at Nong Yu, his eyes twinkling.
Can you really grasp Li Si's human nature, Nong Yu? Your changes over the years have made me increasingly unable to see through you. It's like facing the young master.
She closed her eyes and no longer worried too much about the robbery, but her heart could not be calm for a long time.
Ju Shuang witnessed with her own eyes that Lu Yan grew from an innocent boy to a schemer who plotted the world in more than ten years. For the ultimate ideal, Lu Yan lowered his limits on killing step by step, and the innocent lives he shouldered became increasingly heavy.
In the end, is the Great Qin State Master Lu Yan still the young man from Daliang?
In addition, according to the news from Yue Shen from the Yin Yang family, Lu Yan now seems to have sunk into the dark side that he had been wary of before, and Ju Shuang is even more sensitive.
"Huh?" Ju Shuang felt his hand being held by someone and opened his eyes suddenly, "Ehuang?"
Ehuang blinked and smiled silently.
Nongyu took in all the changes in Ju Shuang's expression, and continued to arrange the next response calmly: "It won't take long for Li Si to come to your door, and we will give him the prepared gift here.
"
"Master Ban, please inform me that everyone is about to abandon this base. Leave some elite manpower behind and wait for Li Si to come over. We will teach Luo Sheng a profound lesson here."
Master Ban looked surprised after hearing Nong Yu's words, "Ah? Chief, it took us several years to build only a few machine beasts. This base has the largest storage of resources. Are we going to give up so easily?
"
Nong Yu explained: "According to the intelligence, the vast majority of the Gongshu family's manpower is on the eastern coast, which means that the snare that comes to deal with us this time does not have the assistance of machine beasts. This is an excellent opportunity for us. Because once the empire
After deploying the machine beasts, we have no chance of winning, so this opportunity is very rare."
"So that's it." Master Ban nodded frequently while stroking his white beard, "That boy Jie went out to be caught on purpose, just to lure the net over and put the initiative in our hands. But, leader, even if Jie admits it himself
, does Li Si dare to trust the information he gave 100%?"
"Li Si is the majestic left prime minister of the empire, and the eldest son Fusu even married Li Si's daughter as his official wife. However, the emperor did not give Li Si any face and asked him to personally deal with us fools. This means that Li Si has great influence within the empire.
The situation is not good. Capturing me, a traitor, is an urgent task that cannot be slacked off for him. Li Si has to believe Jie's confession."
"Oh, I understand. Chief, I will inform everyone right away."
Master Ben opened the door of the secret room with his mechanical hand, and then ran away all the way, leaving everyone with a simple and honest figure.
Nong Yu stared at Master Ban as he completely disappeared from sight, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "It's a good thing that Master Ban is an honest man and doesn't have any advanced intellect, otherwise I wouldn't be able to hide what I said from him."
Of course, all these rhetorics can be made well. For example: there are countless machine formations buried in the Qilin Society base. Outsiders can only use countless human lives to fill in the base without access. Taking Jie as a hostage to explore the way is a good strategy to break the situation.
Therefore, Jie's life safety is sufficiently guaranteed.
However, if he is a person with a clear enough mind, he can see through the core problem: In this plan, as the enemy, will Li Si really follow the plan step by step? Will Li Si bet with his companion's life?
Does this kind of behavior really conform to the purpose of the Qilin Society?
"Yes." Ju Shuang slapped her palm on the sword and stood up. She looked directly at Nong Yu, her eyelashes trembling, "The strategy is to gain victory at the minimum price, but..."
The person who had been asleep before now opened his eyes. Now fine lines have appeared in the corners of his eyes, and his age is approaching sixty.
Looking at Ju Shuang's straight back, Fang Fang suddenly lowered his eyes: What's going on? After so many years, your heart has become chaotic.
Nong Yu was shocked by Ju Shuang's overreaction, "Um, sister, what are you doing?"
"Nong Yu, you and I both know very well where Lu Yan's inner demons come from. You have continued his plan all these years, and now, you can exchange your life for an opportunity. So, from now on, Fang Fang,
Kuang Xiu, I, Ehuang, or Ayan...
Compared with the dream of the Chinese nation in his heart, many human lives will eventually become as light as feathers. It is only because of self-forced time and time again that he will have inner demons. Nongyu, you are kind-hearted, and now you are walking away
The same way as him!"
The news leaked from Yueshen, the new Dongjun of the Yin Yang family, has kept Ju Shuang in a dilemma. She couldn't believe that Lu Yan would become like that.
Moreover, according to the information revealed by the Moon God, Lu Yan's strange changes were strange even to Donghuang Taiyi. Since the possibility of Donghuang Taiyi being the mastermind has been ruled out, the most likely possibility is that there is something wrong with Lu Yan himself.
Ju Shuang thought back carefully and found that Lu Yan had some abnormal signs more than ten years ago. Unfortunately, at that time, both she and Nong Yu believed too much in Lu Yan's mental state.
Nongyu was a little confused by Ju Shuang's sudden shout. She frowned and thought for a moment, then her face suddenly darkened, "Inner demon, self-imposed pressure, you are saying that your husband became what he is now because he failed to suppress it after all.
