Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Lin Ji followed Zheng Lixin into the courtyard. The small courtyard was surrounded by green bamboos, but a large peach tree with luxuriant branches was planted in the middle.

In this season, the peach fruit in other places is just the size of an egg yolk, green and unripe.

But the peach tree in the small courtyard grew red and glistening, and its branches were heavy.

The thatched hut directly opposite was clean and spotless.

The bamboo curtains were rolled up high, and a small, slightly worn-out square table was placed facing the window.

Four kinds of side dishes, with a good mix of hot and cold meat and vegetables.

Two pots of shochu are warm in the bowl, and the aroma is tangy.

"Heavenly official, please!" Zheng Lixin bowed his hand.

Lin Ji and Zheng Lixin could be regarded as old friends meeting again, so they naturally sat down cross-legged without being polite.

After the woman named Qin Lan filled the wine for the two of them, she gave a salute and left the house, sitting directly under the peach tree, resting her chin in a daze.

Lin Ji glanced through the window and said, "Is he the son of Empress Mu?"

"Yes, and no." Zheng Lixin said ambiguously.

"Oh?" Lin Jiqi said, "So what?"

Zheng Lixin raised his wine glass with a long sigh and said, "Come on! Heavenly Official! After this catastrophe, it is still a happy event to be reunited with the old Heavenly Official! You and I drink this glass first and then we can talk about it!"

"Okay!" Lin Ji picked up his cup, collided with Zheng Lixin and drank it down.

The wine was dry in the throat, with a faint bitter taste.

Zheng Lixin put down his wine glass, looked at the back of the lonely woman under the peach tree outside the window and said: "The imperial city is full of flowers! Hey! Speaking of which, Miss Lan is also a hard-working person!"

"Before she was born, my mother became a walking dead."

When Lin Ji heard this, he frowned slightly, but he vaguely guessed something.

Sure enough, without waiting for him to ask, Zheng Lixin continued to say: "The Empress Mu is indeed a bit petty, unbearable to the prestige of her mother. She only cares about the prosperity of her Mu family, helps her father fight for an official position, and supports her brother. However, she Although the evil is also hateful, that's all. At most, there are more corrupt officials fighting for power and profit in the court. Without him, Mu Xiang, there are others. Then there is another scoundrel in the capital who is staring at the emperor's name. Add him It doesn't matter."

"But actually...Since that night, Empress Mu is no longer Empress Mu. Of course, at that time, Emperor Pei had not yet ascended the throne, so she was naturally not an empress, only Princess Pei."

Zheng Lixin grabbed the jug and served it to Lin Jiman, and poured another glass himself.

Continuing on his own: "That night, the chicken mother-in-law was shocked, and all the officials in the capital were dead. Supervisor Tiansi also surprisingly cooperated to block the intersections. I feel that this is a bit strange. So I avoided Gao Qunshu and sent some reliable people to investigate secretly."

"Who knows, this investigation doesn't matter. There are more and more loopholes. I thought Gao Qunshu had left, and there was no need to continue this matter! But it was not until after Daqin's demise that a new clue suddenly came, and finally The truth is revealed! I just missed the best time to escape from the capital while I was waiting for the last clue, so I met the bandits."

Zheng Lixin raised his glass and drank it down, "As early as 18 years ago, Empress Mu was seized and controlled by someone from the Palace of Eternal Life."

"It can also be said that the majestic Empress Mu wearing the phoenix crown and riding the imperial chariot that we see in the future is just a body, and it is the demon girl Jia Luo of the Palace of Eternal Life who controls her."

"She was Zhang Mi's disciple in her previous life, and she has long been lurking beside Peidi under the order of Si Wuming."

"The so-called exchange of blood at Jiulongtai began as early as 18 years ago. It's just that there is no medicine to supplement it, so people can't detect it! The replaced Eunuch Chu is just showing his face and being noticed by Qin Ye on purpose. The introduction. The real secret has already been dropped before the chess game begins!"

Lin Jiqi said: "18 years ago? How could Si Wuming be sure that Qin Ye would definitely choose Qin Pei as emperor?"

Zheng Lixin smiled and said: "You and I both know that the Qin family is called the emperor of the world, but its foundation is in the aristocratic family. A descendant with excellent talent will never let him wear a dragon robe. People who lack scheming and intimidation No, the Qin family will not push him to the dragon chair to be ridiculed by the world. And among the nineteen sons of the younger generation of the Qin family, apart from these two things, and omitting physical discomfort, there are only three or four young and old. "

"Using Jia Luo's heart to influence his eyes and ears is another's strength, and using the power of the Palace of Longevity to seduce him is the rest's weakness. Qin Pei's emperor's appearance will naturally come to light, and this future emperor will naturally not be Qin Pei. No way!"

"Although the Nagara witch has been reincarnated, her nature is hard to change. She has to suck the blood of living people once a month. And the number will increase! Gao Qunshu may not know it at the beginning, but as a prisoner Director of Tiansi, what happened under the nose of Yueyue this month is naturally hidden from him not long ago. Coincidentally, he also wanted to use this to break free from the shackles of Daqin, and simply retreat with the current... even!"

As Zheng Lixin said, he squeezed the wine glass and rattled it, and said through gritted teeth: "Even, I deliberately made it convenient! That night, the screams resounded throughout the capital! A total of 160 people died! Luo Shou! He... Gao Qunshu just stood with Qin Pei all night! He listened all night!"

"Qin Pei thought it was Gao Qunshu's method! But he didn't know that the murderer was the queen!"

Lin Ji raised his head and asked, "Then how could Qin Ye not see it?"

"Qin Ye?!" Zheng Lixin snorted coldly with disdain: "He was determined to die by Si Wuming. On the same night, an unexpected visitor came to the ancestral mausoleum of the Qin family, guarding three thousand guards. No one will be spared, all will be turned into bones!"

"Who else can have such a means, except Ta Si Wuming? He deliberately lured Qin Ye to the Zuling! Even if Qin Ye found out about the change in the capital afterwards, he must have thought that Empress Mu's house was taken away in the What happened that night, thus covering up the secret method of exchanging blood for more than ten years!"

"The reason why Qin Ye remained calm was because he thought his calculations were more subtle. He wanted to use his tricks and let Si Wuming destroy the contract he made with Mr. Lan thousands of years ago, so as to monopolize the world's luck. , from then on, the Qin family has been dominant for a long time! And he can also use this opportunity of great luck to jump over the world and break through heaven and man!"

"It's just that Qin Ye's calculations started when the chessboard landed. He never expected that Si Wuming would make the first move. Even Qin Pei, the chess piece he chose by himself, was decided by Si Wuming for him long ago. !"

"From the beginning to the end, Qin Pei, who is a pawn of the three parties, knew nothing about it. Qin Ye saw most of it, but unfortunately missed a move. Gaoqun Bookstore watched from the outside, knowing that there was a mystery, but he didn't understand why. The one who really laid out early and finally won the victory It's just Taji Wuming alone!"

Lin Ji picked up the wine glass and drank it dry, then gently put it back on the table and said, "Before I came here, I met Mu Xiang and his daughter. They were all planted with evil seeds, and they died on the spot before I could ask the reason." gone."

"Hmph!" Zheng Lixin snorted coldly, and cursed bitterly: "That's just a discarded chess piece! From his point of view, who among the billions of living beings in this world is not a chess piece? Who can't die?"

When he said this, Zheng Lixin turned his head and looked at the lonely figure under the tree outside the window, and said guiltily: "But now, I have become the person I hate!"

Lin Ji was taken aback, and suddenly understood what he meant by what he said just now as a last resort! (end of this chapter)
