Qin Jinsong looked at the three brothers who were nodding and bowing in front of him with an expressionless face, feeling increasingly annoyed in his heart.
"So Lin Tianguan is just passing by and has no intention of staying in Yunzhou?"
"Yes." The eldest brother Liu Rui lowered his head and whispered, "Lin Tianguan seems to be going to the far north. He brought a little girl with him, who he said was Fang Yunshan's great-granddaughter, and he also captured a saint from the Holy Fire Sect.
"
"Well, I understand. You can go down." Qin Jinsong nodded slightly and waved his hand for the three people in front of him to leave.
"Sir, this is a great achievement."
"Jian Tiansi will reward you based on your merits. Naturally, he will not rely on your remuneration."
"Thank you, sir. Thank you, sir."
After the three heroes from the North bowed and saluted, they quickly left with a bit of joy on their brows.
After the three of them left, a chill gradually appeared on Qin Jinsong's face.
He glanced at the study he had been using for an unknown length of time, and finally looked outside the study at the door that had just been pushed open again.
A rough man who looked to be over fifty years old came in, and then sat down opposite Qin Jinsong in a bold manner, with his chest exposed and his legs raised and swaying.
Seeing that Qin Jinsong ignored him, he didn't take it seriously and picked up the teapot on the table and took a deep sip from the spout.
"Ahem! Bah!"
"Why, you Gu Sheng are also afraid of being burned?" Qin Jinsong's face showed a bit of ridicule.
"I think this tea is too bitter!" Gu Sheng put down the teapot, spit on the ground, and then grinned at Qin Jinsong.
"Old Qin, how are you?"
"Since everything is going well, the Zhenbei Army can no longer withstand it. Lu Nanting died. Although the general's morale has been stabilized by the people coming from the capital, how can the morale of the army really be stabilized with Lu Nanting's reputation?"
Speaking of this, Qin Jinsong smiled a little more on his face.
"I heard reports from the front that the barbarian army has pressed into the border three hundred miles away?"
"Yes, seeing that the Zhenbei Army was fighting and then retreating, we simply took advantage of the victory and pursued it."
"In that case, what are you doing here?" Qin Jinsong's face suddenly turned cold, "Don't you know how disgusted I am with your Eternal Life Palace? In my opinion, neither the Qin Family in Tianjing nor your Eternal Life Palace are the same.
It’s just a piece of junk, and it’s disgusting to see it.”
"But you took the initiative to find the Palace of Eternal Life." Gu Sheng turned a deaf ear to Qin Jinsong's cynicism and chuckled, "You know you are seeking the skin of a tiger but you still do it. Hehe, speaking of it, if it weren't for the rebellious Qin family like you,
, I’m afraid the matter in Yunzhou will have to be planned for a long time.”
"I just hope that you will die together. I have never concealed it." Qin Jinsong sneered.
"Then I'm afraid your wish will come true." Gu Sheng laughed loudly and waved his hands, "If an ordinary day traveler dares to speak such nonsense in front of me, I will have to skin him with cramps, but you are still useful. Let's get down to business.
When Lin Ji arrived, he killed several barbarian Yuanshen monks and abducted the Holy Fire Sect's saintess. Do you have any clues?"
Hearing this, Qin Jinsong was obviously a little surprised.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Gu Sheng for a moment, and then asked: "I just found out about this, how did you know?"
"Oh, after all, there are still several Taoist monks in Yunzhou. Shen Long is also in Yunzhou, right? There are Taoist monks stationed in the rear. If I don't keep an eye on them, these Yuanshen monks may be punished even if they haven't done anything.
Captured. A dozen Yuan Shen monks are also a huge loss to the barbarians."
"So you have met Lin Ji?"
"No, I noticed something was wrong from afar and didn't dare to show up."
"Don't you dare?" Qin Jinsong's pupils shrank, "Didn't Lin Ji just join Taoism not long ago? Even you don't dare to take action against him?"
"Oh, it seems that you have been in Yunzhou for a long time, and your brain has been frozen by this damn weather."
Gu Sheng stood up and stretched.
"I was listening to the conversation between the three heroes of the North and you just now. It seems that you may indeed be unaware of it. In that case, I will take the first step."
Snapped!
There was a crisp sound.
Gu Sheng did not leave immediately, but slapped Qin Jinsong.
Qin Jinsong was knocked to the ground by Gu Sheng's slap. Half of his face became red and swollen at a speed visible to the naked eye. He spit out a mouthful of bloody saliva and spit out two teeth.
"This slap is for disrespecting me! Don't think that I dare not kill you. Next time, I will kill you with my own hands and feed your descendants to pigs!"
After the words fell, Gu Sheng glanced disdainfully at Qin Jinsong, who was expressionless on the ground and covering his face, and then disappeared in a flash.
After a long time, Qin Jinsong got up from the ground.
The injury on his face could not be healed, and he felt a spiritual energy that did not belong to him lingering on the swelling area on his face.
"Oh, do you want to embarrass me on purpose? You are just a reckless person who has entered the Taoist realm."
"I won't live long, why do I still care about this?"
The far north.
Yunshen Valley, the main altar of the Holy Fire Sect.
A secret room was filled with formations.
In the middle of the formation, there is a cluster of small flames suspended in mid-air, with little sparks jumping out from time to time and splashing around.
The great elder Dong Yichuan stood at the door of the secret room, next to the formation, quietly watching the flames inside.
That flame is the holy fire, the holy fire path of the original leader of the Holy Fire Sect and a powerful man in the Taoist Realm.
Burn everything, purify everything.
That's probably true.
At least Dong Yichuan now knows that this was just the words of the original leader.
"Can you still hear me?" Dong Yichuan suddenly said.
There was no one in the secret room, so naturally there would be no response.
But even so, Dong Yichuan still waited for a long time before he dared to speak again.
"No wonder I am so cautious. A Taoist realm venerable like you, who combines the body with the Tao, is almost an immortal existence. Even though you have disappeared for many years. But the holy fire is still there, so you must not be dead yet."
"Reborn from the Holy Fire? Maybe you can really do it, but I don't want to."
As he said that, Dong Yichuan showed some hesitation on his face.
He quietly looked at the small flames suspended in mid-air among the formations, and watched as the light from the flames dimmed the entire secret room.
Finally, he seemed to have made up his mind and tried to reach out his hand to touch the flames.
But just when he was about to touch it, he suddenly hesitated and withdrew his hand.
"If I control the Holy Fire, will I become the realm of Taoism, or will I become your incarnation?"
Dong Yichuan let out a long sigh.
"It's true that the older you get in the world, the less courageous you become. Anyway, the Holy Fire scattered outside is already ready. When the Holy Fire Dao is restored to integrity, it will be you. No, it will be when I achieve Dao, even if it is not my own Dao."
After finishing his words, Dong Yichuan glanced at the Holy Fire again with some reluctance, then turned around and left.
The moment he left the secret room.
The holy fire, which had not changed for hundreds of years, suddenly became brighter, as bright as the bright sun in the sky.
It's a pity that this brightness was locked in a secret room and no one could see it.
