Chapter 835 Visitors From the Great River
Shendu City, Zhao Mansion.
Zhao Yishan was dressed in cloth, sitting in the study, taking a sip of tea and putting down the cup.
Opposite him, Wang Yihe, the Minister of Rites, who was wearing casual clothes, looked expressionless and glanced at the untouched tea cup in front of him.
"Mr. Quan Jie, I am here to ask just one thing. Why did Xu Chuxin die and why?"
Zhao Yishan picked up the tea cup again and drank carefully.
"Before my mentor died, he held my and Chu Xin's hands and asked me to take good care of Chu Xin. Unexpectedly, not long after, Chu Xin went crazy for no reason and took refuge in the demon clan. This incident was a nail in my heart. Whenever people are quiet at night, I hear the sound in my ears. There will be a sound of nails being hammered into my heart.”
Zhao Yishan said nothing.
"I have been investigating my original intention these years. Later I found some clues, which may point to the third prince, but the third prince died. Some may point to Li Gangfeng, but Li Gangfeng hit the pillar. Some may point to Zhou Chunfeng, but Zhou Chunfeng and the devil The whole family will die together.”
Zhao Yishan raised his head and looked at Wang Yihe.
Wang Yihe said calmly: "I discovered that some traces of these people were inexplicably erased, and many people who were originally connected with them were completely forgotten. However, my heart is close and sincere, and my fortune cannot be disturbed."
Zhao Yishan remained silent.
Wang Yihe said: "I also found out that there are rumors that Xu Chuxin did not betray, but listened to the words of a big shot and went undercover in the demon clan to save the virtuous prince. Since then, Chuxin has endured the torture of Gu insects and the demons. He was bullied by the human race and endured the humiliation of the human race... In the end, he appeared outside the city of God, shouted "You lied to me", and died after running into a wall. Who sent him to be an undercover agent? Why didn't he tell him? Choose to collapse the north gate and die?"
Zhao Yishan looked at the tea cup quietly, the water ripples rippling.
"What are you three sons of Bingchen planning!" Wang Yihe shouted, fire exploding in his eyes.
Zhao Yishan turned to look out the window and said slowly: "You may not believe it, but the three of us have gotten together three times, but every time we had heated arguments."
"I heard something."
"Back then, Zhou Chunfeng believed that the world's affairs had nothing to do with him. If the country fell, someone would step forward."
"He had that temper back then, until his wife and daughter were killed by demons."
"Back then, Xu Chuxin believed that what he learned should be put to use. The biggest use should be to kill the demon clan."
"and you?"
"Me, I didn't draw conclusions like them. Instead, I looked for the reasons bit by bit. Later, I came to a helpless conclusion. As long as everything in the world happens, there is no single cause. Everything is a mess."
"Only to this extent?"
"But all things are nothing but external objects and my heart."
"I agree with this."
“We disagree on a lot of things, but the three of us, on one point, are consistent.”
"Which point?"
"Evil must be eradicated from the world."
Wang Yihe nodded.
Zhao Yishan said: "It's just that we have disagreements about the first cause of evil and how to eliminate it."
"Then what?"
"Then we were far apart and never got together again. What's interesting is that we met and chatted with Mr. Gangfeng respectively."
"You really don't know the cause of Xu Chuxin's death?"
Zhao Yishan was silent.
Tianshi Mountain.
"Reporting to the law enforcement elder, candidate Cui Dianxing asked to see you. He said that he came from the river and brought the dried white striped fish that you like to eat."
Hu Jingtian had a bald head and a red beard. He narrowed his eyes slightly and his face turned slightly red. The power of the second-grade life cultivator stirred in the room.
The wind blows in the study.
The disciple who reported the report was too embarrassed to express his anger.
"come in."
"As commanded."
Cui Dianxing walked in. The disciple leading the way looked at Hu Jingtian and turned to leave.
Cui Dianxing turned his head and glanced behind him, waited for the disciple to leave, took out a letter from the lucky silverbait bag, and handed it to Hu Jingtian's desk with both hands.
"His Royal Highness, the General, has asked me to deliver a letter to you."
"Who told you what Bai Tiaoyu did?" Hu Jingtian squinted, his eyes filled with red light.
Cui Dianxing said: "I don't know exactly what Mr. Yang said."
"Old bastard." Hu Jingtian said through gritted teeth.
Cui Dianxing quickly lowered his head.
Hu Jingtian opened the letter and found not a word.
Hu Jingtian waved his hand and the letter burned.
"What does he want me to do?"
Cui Dianxing was silent for a while and said: "Please help the river defenders to cross the river north and regain the Champion City."
"Why should I work for him?"
Cui Dianxing's mouth twisted, and he said helplessly: "Mr. Yang said that you have been making small fuss all your life, only doing trivial things. You only have small evils in your eyes, but you never dare to face big evils. On the surface, you are jealous of evil, but in fact you are timid. Rat. This is your only chance to prove that you dare to kill evil."
Cui Dianxing shrank his neck after speaking, but the scene of Hu Jingtian's rage that he imagined did not happen.
"What he said is correct." Hu Jingtian sneered.
Cui Dianxing slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Liu Feijiu, the old immortal, also agreed?"
Cui Dianxing said: "Master Liu..."
"Call Liu Lao Immortal."
"That one..."
"Call Liu Lao Immortal!" Hu Jingtian said.
Cui Dianxing felt helpless and said: "Old Immortal Master Liu is still guarding the Demon Suppression Tower. It is said that he has complete control. Neither the imperial court nor the Tianming Sect can do anything to him. However, the Demon Suppression Tower has not been completed yet. He still has a breath left. He can only take action after the suppression tower is completed. However, the Demon Suppression Tower is within the jurisdiction of the river guard army and will definitely help the river guard army cross the river. "
"He can't go, then I'll go."
"Ahem..." Cui Dianxing said, "Master Hu, do you think you can take a few trusted masters with you to the north?"
"Stupid, how can such a big thing be announced? Of course, we have to trick them over on that day, whether we have to do it or not." Hu Jingtian said.
"The disciple is convinced." Cui Dianxing said.
"Do you have any rumors about Xu Chuxin's matter in the river guarding army?" Hu Jingtian said casually.
Cui Dianxing was silent.
"Little guts, get out."
"The disciple bids farewell."
Cui Dianxing walked out of the gate, wiped the sweat from his forehead, slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and then stood on the mountainside, looking towards the distant north.
The white clouds are vast, and the mountains and rivers are blue and gray.
He gathered his mind and slowly walked towards the outer disciples' dormitory at the foot of the mountain.
Walking down the stone steps, he saw a man holding his head with both hands, leaping from bottom to top, jumping several steps at a time, and moving up one after another, his figure was agile.
Cui Dianxing looked at the man in surprise. His skin was bronze, his muscles were bulging, and he was as tall as those martial artists.
Perhaps he was a martial artist guard of Tianshi Sect...
The two passed by each other, and Cui Dianxing returned to the dormitory, just in time to see everyone discussing tomorrow's exam.
"Brother Cui, why did you take so long to come back when you were out, if you didn't study hard?" A candidate asked with a smile.
Li Qingxian also looked over.
Cui Dianxing smiled and said, "I'm busy with some personal matters, and I'll study now." Then he walked towards the crowd.
