This is a fight with no visible flames of war, a duel in the dark, and the participants can almost never see the light.
The victor dare not make a name for himself, cannot say what he has done, cannot say how many enemies he has killed.
The deceased cannot establish a monument like a soldier on the battlefield, or even reveal the reason for his death.
The reasons are all the same, otherwise it is easy to be followed.
The living are nameless and the dead are silent.
Seeing the long list of victims of the bloody battle between the intelligence organizations of the two countries, Tao Lue, the chief internal officer of the Jin State, who was sitting under the bright lights, closed his eyes silently, with tears in the corners of his eyes.
He cried, but did not cry out. The losses were too heavy. Many generations of people had worked hard to manage Heishui Terrace. These dead people had to call him "ancestor". He knew that he was sorry for these people.
"Ancestor, we can't continue fighting like this. This is Qi's home field. Brothers have suffered too much loss. There is no point in continuing the fight. People on the relevant lines should be evacuated in time, so that some people can be saved there.
Incense!" A man who came to report burst into tears. It was so tragic!
"Alas!" Tao Lue looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh. He opened his eyes, raised his sleeves to wipe away his tears, and shook his head: "Whether it makes sense or not, I can't tell you. You will understand soon whether it makes sense."
"What's the point?" The man who came to report asked for an answer with his hands spread out.
Tao Lue shook his head and didn't tell him the answer. He couldn't tell him. This was a top secret and no one was allowed to disclose it to the outside world except for a few core people.
But as Tao Lue said, it didn't take long for the man to know the answer and the significance of the brothers' sacrifice...
Not long after Qi State pursued Shao Pingbo, Wei State also launched a similar manhunt.
Shao Pingbo did not leave Qi State. Even though he knew that Qi State was arresting him, he still took the risk and stayed. He had no choice but to have a bigger plan next. If he did not personally take command, he would not trust it to others.
He was hiding in a post station not too far away from Qi Jing. He wanted to be as close as possible to the center of Qi State in order to grasp the relevant changes in the situation as soon as possible.
The place was prepared for him at Heishuitai in Jin State.
The officials in charge of this inn are officials from Qi State, but they are backup lurkers sent by Heishuitai to infiltrate Qi State. This inn is a backup for Heishuitai, and the purpose of preparation is to prepare for it in case of a major incident.
Used for connecting applications.
For example, if the Jin Dynasty court needs it, this place can cover the evacuation of important envoys.
Due to his duties and confidentiality, he has no contact with other personnel lurking in the Qi State and is directly under the Jin State's Blackwater Tower Center.
This inn has never been used, but this time it was opened for Shao Pingbo.
Shao Pingbo hid in the tunnel under the inn, enduring the darkness and dampness in the cave, hiding like a ground mouse.
Under the light, looking at the information delivered in his hand, Shao Pingbo muttered, "Sure enough, it's him! Sure enough, he is determined to kill me!"
The intelligence was that Shao Pingbo was being hunted by Weiguo.
"Who?" Shao Sansheng was confused.
Shao Pingbo exhaled slowly and solemnly, "Niu Youdao! My guess is correct. I know that the Holy Land cannot stop him. He has indeed established channels to communicate with both inside and outside the Holy Land."
"Niu Youdao?" Shao Sansheng was confused and didn't know what he was talking about.
However, he knew about Niu Youdao, and he knew that it had become the eldest son's heartache. In the past, Niu Youdao was so angry that the eldest son vomited blood, but now that the eldest son has cultivated himself for many years, the blood-threaking power has finally subsided. However,
Why are you involved with Niu Youdao again?
He was vaguely worried. The eldest son had been dormant for many years. Will he have to fight Niu Youdao again when he comes out of the mountain?
To be honest, let alone Shao Pingbo, even he, who has always been with Shao Pingbo, is a little scared of Niu Youdao. He gets a little scared when he hears the name "Niu Youdao". Shao Pingbo is in Niu Youdao
When he was defeated miserably, was forced to kill his brother and mother, became infamous by Niu Youdao, and even almost lost his life when he was chased by Niu Youdao, he had been with Shao Pingbo and experienced it personally.
At the most dangerous time, Shao Sansheng knew how far Shao Pingbo was pushed by Niu Youdao.
He has always admired Shao Pingbo's ability, but such a capable young master was repeatedly suppressed and beaten by Niu Youdao!
Like Shao Pingbo, he knew very well how terrifying Niu Youdao was!
Shao Sansheng felt very unsure about facing such an opponent again. He was already a little timid when he heard that name. He tried to ask: "Isn't he trapped in the Holy Realm?"
Shao Pingbo felt heavy and was in no mood to explain nonsense, so he looked at the information in his hand again.
In the eyes of others, it was just a piece of news about Weiguo's search for him, but in his eyes, the information revealed behind the news was profound.
As he said before when he talked with the mysterious person at Piaomiao Pavilion, after questioning the possibilities of him being exposed by leaks, he suspected that he had fallen in love with Niu Youdao, but there were many other factors and various possibilities.
So I am not sure that it is Niu Youdao.
But the arrival of this news illustrates a problem. Those who want to attack him cannot be sure whether he is in Wei Jing or Qi Jing. In other words, it is not the Jin who leaked the secret, and it also excludes other forces from spying on him.
the possibility of his whereabouts.
On the contrary, it confirmed his guess about what the mysterious man said!
After thinking for a while, Shao Pingbo raised his head and said: "Send a message to the person sent to contact us and tell him that I am sure it is Niu Youdao and ask him to send me the details of Niu Youdao's stay in the Holy Land as soon as possible!
"
Is he really having sex with Niu Youdao again? Shao Sansheng was a little frightened, and tried to remind him: "Did the eldest son just mean that Niu Youdao was communicating with the outside world behind his back? If that is the case, why didn't the eldest son tell the situation directly?
Go to the Holy Land so that Niu Youdao can't eat it and carry it around?"
Shao Pingbo said two words coldly, "Childish!"
"Yes!" Shao Sansheng said slightly embarrassed, "I'll send a message right away." After saying that, he turned around.
"Wait a minute." Shao Pingbo stopped him and asked, "How is Haozhen's situation?"
Shao Sansheng: "After leaving the ghost doctor's disciples, I haven't seen any unusual movement in the Yingwang Palace. Judging from the situation, I should be out of danger."
Shao Pingbo nodded slightly, "It seems that the ghost doctor disciple is indeed worthy of his reputation."
He was indeed relieved in his heart. If Shao Liu'er was turned into a widow, he really didn't know how to face that sister. Who did the poisoning, and his connection would be exposed sooner or later. As long as Haozhen
It's okay, he doesn't care how Shao Liu'er resents him in the future.
As long as Shao Liu'er can be well, let's just feel resentful. The brother and sister should keep some distance, which is also a kind of protection for Shao Liu'er at the moment.
Shao Sansheng reminded: "Heishuitai's letter seems to be somewhat dissatisfied with the eldest son's behavior."
Blackwater Terrace learned that such a major plan actually missed the part of the ghost doctor disciples, and did not deal with the ghost doctor disciples. As a result, the ghost doctor disciples rescued the poisoned people, and the poisoning method that was finally successful was not used.
Heishuitai was very dissatisfied with the result.
Heishuitai hopes that all the royal family in Qi's court will die, and that it will cause greater civil strife within Qi.
Especially after learning that Shao Liu'er was the first person to beg for treatment from the ghost doctor's disciples, Heishuitai became increasingly suspicious of Shao Pingbo's behavior, suspecting that Shao Pingbo had mixed personal feelings in such a major operation.
But it was indeed mixed with personal affairs, using the power of Black Water Tower to set up a trap in Qijing, in order to let Haozhen escape. It was just an accident. How could such a thing be hidden from the Jin State.
Shao Pingbo was silent and said slowly: "Didn't I already give you an explanation?"
Shao Sansheng: "I'm afraid they may not believe this explanation. This time because of the eldest son's plan, too many of Blackwater Tower's lurking personnel in Qi State died."
Shao Pingbo: "As long as the matter can be successful, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. Send the message to Heishuitai, and the Qin side must drag it out for a while. If Tian and Ma put some more pressure, Luo Zhao can almost be released.
There are rumors about the ambitions of the two to replace them!"
"Yes!" Shao Sansheng accepted the order and left.
…
When the last royal family member was carried out of the courtyard, the courtyard finally became quiet, and Wu Xin, who was so tired, finally collapsed on a recliner to rest.
Continuously rescuing, the poisoned royal family saved one person after another. Wu Xin didn't sleep a wink for three days and nights.
Originally, the poison in the remaining people's bodies could not last so long. He first used medicine to temporarily suppress the poison for the royal family, and with the cooperation of a group of monks, he had time to treat them one by one.
Originally, he only planned to save Haozhen, and didn't care about the lives of other people.
However, because of Yan Baoru's words, Ling Wuxin tried his best to treat these poisoned royals.
After detoxifying Haozhen, Yan Baoru saw the noble lady kneeling outside and begging for help, and said: This time, Haozhen escaped. If others could not escape, these women would probably hate her.
If Shao Liuer dies, Shao Liuer will become the target of public criticism!
Yan Baoru's words are not unreasonable. Women definitely understand women's thoughts better than men.
Just because of these words, Wuxin showed mercy and saved the lives of the poisoned royal family.
But the Wu Xin in front of him was so exhausted that he lay on the chair exhausted.
"Sir, your merits are immeasurable this time. I am afraid that the entire Qi royal family will thank you. You can rest peacefully, sir." Guo Man smiled and covered him with a blanket.
"Immeasurable merits? I didn't listen to the master's advice. I'm afraid this is the beginning of trouble." Wu Xin sighed tiredly.
Guo Man was surprised, "Trouble? Why did you say this, sir?"
Wuxin shook his head slightly, he didn't want to say it and couldn't say it.
When he wanted to leave the mountain, his master, the ghost doctor, disagreed, saying that people's hearts are sinister, and the more advanced his medical skills are, the more dangerous he is.
Even if it was his master himself who had so-called eccentricities that many people hated, or the dragon was forced to do so, he understood his master's difficulties.
In the words of the master, in the face of external demands, the best way to protect yourself is to not get involved with any forces, to be harmless to any forces, and to keep a distance!
Although the influence of ghost doctors is great, to some people, it means nothing!
But he didn't listen to his master today and saved so many Qi royal family members at once!
