"My lord, no, something happened." The old man in gray robe walked into the study quickly, with a hurried look on his face.
The ghost-faced general standing outside saw it and walked over in two steps, "Old Shi, why are you in such a panic? Your Majesty is discussing the next war deployment with the generals. If there is nothing major, just wait."
Before Mr. Shi could speak again, a faint voice came from inside, "Come in."
The generals came out of the cabinet, nodded to the old man in gray robes, and quickly left.
Mr. Shi quickly walked in. Xiling Mo Qian, dressed in a white Confucian robe, was standing by the bookshelf, sorting out official documents. He behaved elegantly and put some military books into the bookshelf in an orderly manner. There was no unnecessary expression on his half-mask face.
Without looking back, he said slowly, "Panic, what's wrong?"
Mr. Shi hurried up and tried to calm down, but his voice was still urgent, "Your Majesty, I just received a report that two ghosts were killed, and even the black-bone general who went to help was left dead. Mei Siniang's life and death are unknown.
, I’m afraid it’s also a disaster!”
After hearing the words, Xiling Mo Qian's hand holding the book suddenly paused in the air!
He slowly looked back, with a pair of boundless black eyes, staring at the old man without blinking, as if he doubted whether he had heard wrongly, and suddenly smiled in a low voice, "Is there something wrong with my ears, or your mouth.
"
Mr. Shi was so excited that he didn't dare to say any more words for a moment.
"What!" The ghost-faced general was stunned and stepped forward in disbelief, "Mr. Shi, is there an error in the news? Is it the news from our spies, or is it a misinformation from the ghost clan?"
Once, it was a mistake, and twice, it might be Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan who got lucky, but this was the third time, and the ghost clan would never take it lightly again. Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan actually still
Survive!
If there are no more than three things, it is definitely not an accident.
The most important thing is that the three kings of the ghost clan were actually killed!
He was the most powerful man under the Ghost King, a master who made the whole five continents fearful. How could he die like this? How could Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan do it?
Mr. Shi shook his head, "It can't be wrong."
"Then there must be someone helping Ling Xiyue and Bei Chenyan behind the scenes!" General Ghost Face still couldn't believe it and could only make this guess.
Shi Lao's white eyebrows knitted into a straight line and he still shook his head, "No, the spies reported that the three generals fell into Ling Xiyue's trap."
"Damn it!" General Ghost Face punched the table hard, full of annoyance.
Seeing the opportunity for revenge, it fell through again.
If this continues, how long will he have to wait!
Xiling Mo Qian looked back, continued to insert the military book in his hand into the bookshelf, flicked the non-existent dust on it, and chuckled with a gentle voice, "It's getting more and more interesting. I really want to know, three
How did the king die?"
The eyes that turned towards Mr. Shi suddenly became extremely sharp, and the temperature in the room suddenly dropped.
Although Xiling Mo Qian still smiled lightly, the changes in the atmosphere around him made it obvious that he was really angry this time. The ghost-faced general stepped aside knowingly and did not dare to say any more words.
Mr. Shi replied seriously, "It seems... he was blown up by something."
"Bombed to death?" Xiling Mo Qian narrowed his eyes, turned around, sat down behind the desk, and looked at him to continue.
Mr. Shi bowed his head and said, "My lord, you still remember the decisive conditions Ling Xiyue used last time to get all the princes of Beiyi to unanimously agree to join Tianlin and sign a tributary treaty with Beiyi Country."
"You mean, Ling Xiyue promised to dig out the Yunchuan Tianmai in half a year, lead a tributary of the Tianlinhui River into the river, irrigate the grassland, and divert water to the Beiyi Royal City." Xiling Mo Qian replied with a faint voice.
Of course Xiling Mo Qian knew about this, but he just didn't understand why Mr. Shi suddenly mentioned it. But then again, he thought Ling Xiyue was crazy at the time. It would take at least ten years to build such a natural chasm, even with the efforts of the whole country.
effort.
How is it possible to do it in just half a year?
He thought that he had done whatever it took to achieve his goals, but he didn't expect Ling Xiyue to go further than him and open her mouth like a lion just to deceive Beiyi first. To this day, he is still waiting for Beiyi and Tianlin to fall out.
It's just that I've been worrying about the war recently, so I forgot about it.
So, half a year seems to have passed now, right?
"Back to your lord, do you know that now the Yunchuan Heavenly Vein has been broken, and the water of the Huihe River has merged into the river." Mr. Shi shook his sleeves, his voice trembled, and even he didn't believe it yet.

"What?" Xiling Mo Qian's eyes showed an extremely rare look of surprise, and his gentle voice sounded a little annoyed, "Why wasn't there any news before?"
Mr. Shi clasped his hands together and said, "Your Majesty, this is absolutely true. My subordinates have just received the news. Ling Xiyue works in secret, and all the progress is unknown to the outside world. Even the imperial courts of Beiyi and Tianlin seem to have no idea.
If we can’t get news, let alone our people.”
In addition, something happened to Xiling Mo Qian in Yunshan, and everyone under his command was in chaos and forgot about it.
Mr. Shi continued, "Only when the floodgates are opened and the water released, will everyone know that the whole country of Beiyi is celebrating!"
"How is this possible?" General Ghost Face couldn't help but interrupted in shock, "Does Ling Xiyue have three heads and six arms? Or some kind of living Buddha who can move mountains and reclaim seas in half a year!"
Mr. Shi said "Hey", "But the fact is that we can't believe it."
"What you said has nothing to do with the killing of the three kings." Xiling Mo Qian quickly regained his composure, but his eyes became cold.
Mr. Shi cupped his hands with a cautious face, "Back to the prince, what I want to say is the thing that Ling Xiyue used to move mountains and smash rocks. It is said that Ling Xiyue has something in her hand that is extremely powerful. It's called,
By the way, it seems to be called black fire... It explodes when it encounters fire. It originally came from a Jianghu organization called Shenji Pavilion. The three kings were killed by this kind of thing, but what it was, the subordinates couldn't tell.
, still under investigation.”
"Black Fire..." Xiling Mo Qian's jade-long fingers tapped once and again on the desk.
General Ghost Face suddenly remembered, "Yes, I have heard of this thing too, but I thought it was just a rumor in the world before. After all, most of the rumors circulating in the world are rumors, and no one has seen it with their own eyes. In addition, Shenji Pavilion has
I never negotiated with the imperial court, and it has always existed in everyone's word of mouth. It did not cause any big sensation, and it did not attract too much attention from the imperial court."
"Now it seems that this thing really exists!" Mr. Shi said in a serious tone.
