sword sentient beings

Chapter 235 Yanju
After more than a month, Zhang Rong was still as melancholy as when he was in Liuxia, and there seemed to be endless sentimentality hidden in his eyes.

Mai Shiyu saw that this person was full of bookishness, undisciplined and thin, in line with his imagined image, he thought he was an underappreciated scholar who kept his ears to the outside world, devoted himself to the study of Tianyan technique for many years, and did not want to cause trouble and refused to show his face, so Secretly tossing the book to warn, feeling at ease, said: "Sir, you are a great talent, you must know why I came to you."

When Zhang Rong saw Tang Zhao, he was slightly surprised, but didn't recognize each other, and let the two into the house.

The layout of the house is the same as the exterior, which is very homely, but it is subtly different from Yunzhou's style, which is the same style as the house outside.Tang Zhao believed in his guess more and more:

This house is part of Zhang Rong's sword elephant Yantai.

But it shouldn't be. If a sword elephant wants to manifest, it must be at the level of a swordsman. Zhang Rong has just become a swordsman not long ago.He is definitely not a swordsman, and what method did he develop to achieve this?
Is the world of geniuses so unreasonable?Isn't it better to talk about the basic rules than to hang up?
Unexpectedly, Tang Zhao would have such thoughts one day.

In addition to Zhang Rong, there was also a cute little girl in red with braids and Yuxue in the room. When she saw someone coming, she bounced back to the back room.

Zhang Rong put away the two teacups on the table, poured three more cups of tea, looked at Tang Zhao and said, "This is..."

Mai Shiyu said: "It's my friend Xiaotang, who is anxious for justice and willing to help me eliminate demons. He is the most believable."

Zhang Rong sighed: "Zhang is a criminal who committed a great treason. If he meets a dangerous person like me, do you want to implicate this young man?"

Tang Zhao laughed and said, "Students are also members of the district inspectorate, working in the eighth grade. It has always been such a dangerous thing. Only we, the district inspector, are afraid of implicating the common people, and no ordinary people are worried about implicating us."

Zhang Rong said in surprise, "Really? It's true that people can't be judged by their appearance. The Yunzhou Prosecutor's Office is so upright, so I have more confidence."

Mai Shiyu opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Zhang, right—you also know that you have committed a heinous crime? Then why do you still dare to hand over the evidence of the Tianyan technique to the official?"

Zhang Rong said calmly, "The lesser of two evils, is it because of my own cowardice that I sit and watch thousands of people die?"

Mai Shiyu stared at him, as if he wanted to see through his heart, but this person's every move was very sincere and calm, and the confession just now didn't add any extra force, as if he was talking about the most ordinary things.

He was so sincere and magnanimous that Deputy Envoy Mai thought of Tang Zhao who was by his side.

Even Tang Zhao, or herself, Mai Shiyu cannot guarantee that she will remain so pure when she is forty.

She couldn't help admiring: "Since ancient times, there have been many scholars with lofty ideals who sacrificed their lives for righteousness. It is really a blessing for the people to have a gentleman in Zhaocheng."

Zhang Rong shook his head and said: "It's nothing righteous, it's just Zhang's selfishness. Back then, Zhang's hometown Yantai was reduced to ashes in a catastrophe. When Zhang rushed back to his hometown, he didn't even have time to visit his hometown. At the last glance of the neighbors, I only saw devastation. At that time, I thought, if I could know the time of day, the number of months, and take precautions early, why would I end up here? Therefore, Zhang transferred to the art of Tianyan, and even now, it is considered a good entry. The day before yesterday Calculated and found that there will be a demon cave coming in the city, so I rushed to the city in a hurry, calculated in the local area for many days, and got a result, at least I did my best."

Tang Zhao was stunned, no wonder Zhang Rong left and insisted on going when he learned of the blockade of Zhaocheng halfway. At that time, he thought that there were relatives of Mr. Zhang in Zhaocheng.

Mai Shiyu nodded, now that the devil's caves come frequently, neither the Qingtian Temple nor the District Prosecutor can guarantee safety, like the chaotic Lingzhou, there is not even a District Prosecutor, and tragedies of family ruin and death often happen.It's just that most people can only cry and be at a loss when they witness the tragedy, and few people can cheer up or even work hard for it.

and many more……

Mai Shiyu swallowed, and said, "I remember the catastrophe of Yantai Devil's Nest was a year ago."

Zhang Rong sighed softly: "Yes, it's been a year in a blink of an eye."

Mai Shiyu said in a daze: "You have only been learning the technique of Tianyan for a year..."

Zhang Rong explained: "Deputy envoy, don't think that I've studied for a short time and I'm not proficient. I'm sure of the calculation this time. I have calculated it twice before Wansheng, one in Youzhou and one in Qingzhou. The time and place are different. There was nothing wrong. It’s just that the local prosecutors didn’t accept it, so that the disaster couldn’t be avoided, and Zhang was discouraged, so he had to go north to Yunzhou to see if this place is different.”

No... I'm not suspicious.

I doubt myself,

And those two idiots in Qingtian Temple.

Mai Shiyu murmured: "Those two doctors have been studying in Qingtian Temple for more than ten years."

How can the gap between people be so big?
Tang Zhao was amused, she didn't know that this year Zhang Rong hadn't delayed his realization of the sword and became a swordsman.

But he could hear something else from Zhang Rong's words.

Mai Shiyu sorted out his thoughts, and said: "Mr. Zhang, I believe that your calculation is correct. I have also accepted this matter as the prosecutor's office. Naturally, it is my duty. But since you know the taboos of the Tianyan technique, you should know yours. The situation is very dangerous. You are not a member of the District Procuratorate. If something happens, it is difficult for me to justifiably protect you. Why don't you go away first?"

This is of course a test, and Mai Shiyu is still unable to fully confirm that Zhang Rong is trustworthy. Regardless of whether this person is an enemy or a friend, it is of course the most time-saving and labor-saving way to send him away at this critical moment, and it is also to protect him.If this person is determined not to leave, but still actively participates, then it is doubtful.

Zhang Rong said with a smile: "Of course, the Procuratorate has the responsibilities and means of the Procuratorate. It is difficult for me to cooperate with outsiders. If I get in the way, I will leave the city. But I think the two people from Qingtian Temple are also dudes. , Staying here is harmful and useless, and will delay the plan, do you want me to take them away?"

Mai Shiyu wondered: "Could it be that Mister has some clever plan? I'm afraid those two won't leave."

Zhang Rong said with a smile: "It's okay, I just invite them to come and stay as guests."

Mai Shiyu was very puzzled, Zhang Rong looked at Tang Zhao, Tang Zhao understood, and explained: "It may be that Mr. Zhang's swordsmanship has the means to take people away."

Mai Shiyu was stunned, and Tang Zhao said: "This gentleman is a swordsman. We met once a month ago, and I had a teacher-student friendship with me. I am also surprised to see you again today. Are you okay, sir?" Let's meet formally.

He is also very curious, Zhang Rong has only been a swordsman for more than a month, what kind of swordsmanship can he develop?It can't be a wizard in this respect, right?
The way of heaven is partial, and you have to be a little restrained, hey!

If it can be developed... Anyway, let me touch it!

Mai Shiyu was surprised, but her suspicion was reduced a bit. Tang Zhao has a good relationship with this acquaintance, so she still trusts Tang Zhao.Moreover, he took the initiative to disclose his identity as a swordsman to win the trust of others, otherwise it would be better to hide it as a trump card.

This person not only took the initiative to show others, but also took care of the matter of Qingtian Temple. Mai Shiyu decided to try his skills first.If things fail, Tang Zhao can still be used as a backup.

So Mai Shiyu said: "Alright, the two of them are really in the way. Let them come here, you need to find an excuse. How about..."

Zhang Rong smiled and said, "I'll edit a book and just ask them to come."

Mai Shiyu wondered, "Do you recognize them?"

Zhang Rong said: "I don't recognize the young people today, but I have met a few of them in the previous generation. Just write in the name of their elders and invite them here."

Mai Shiyu said: "But the handwriting..." Immediately afterwards, she figured it out. Seeing that Mr. Zhang has been writing for many years, is mere handwriting still a problem?
This plan has been improved a bit, Mai Shiyu nodded and said: "Can you deduce the exact time, sir?"

Zhang Rong said: "I'm afraid I can't deduce too specific..."

Mai Shiyu was slightly disappointed, and was about to speak when Zhang Rong said, "It must be an hour before and after."

Mai Shiyu: ...

It's okay, even autopsies can't be so accurate nowadays.

Confirming that this man always speaks so modestly, Mai Shiyu silently reassured himself, saying: "Since that's the case, Qingtian Temple asks Mr. Zhang to take care of you, and Azhao's matter, we each perform our own duties. Just the day before the arrival of the magic cave , that is, it will be activated the day after tomorrow.”

Tang Zhao and Zhang Rong nodded. Although it was a hasty launch just one day earlier, it could catch people off guard, but it was safer. The people could not last too long in the temple, and the two from Qingtian Temple had no time to react.

Mai Shiyu chatted with Zhang Rong for a few words, and both sides were very restrained. Mai Shiyu didn't mention the specific layout of the District Procuratorate, and Zhang Rong didn't introduce his identity.The two were just chatting casually, nothing more than the scenery of Yantai and Yunzhou.

After chatting for a while, Mai Shiyu got up to say goodbye, and Zhang Rong said, "Little friend Tang, stay?"

Tang Zhao greeted Mai Shiyu, and Mai Shiyu didn't mind, so he left first and said, "See you at the old place tomorrow morning."

Tang Zhao stayed behind and met Zhang Rong again, which was naturally the gift of a student.

Zhang Rong rarely showed a smile, and praised Tang Zhao for being more energetic, and seemed to have entered the country.He also asked Zi Zaigang about his cultivation.Tang Zhao couldn't help being embarrassed, saying that he had failed Zhang Rong's kindness by saying that he hadn't had time to practice.

The topic came to Jianzhou again, and Tang Zhao chatted about the story of Jianzhou while drinking tea.Except for things that are inconvenient for outsiders, such as glasses, Zhu Yang, and the details of Kun Jian, the rough process is not concealed, and it is as soul-stirring as a storytelling.

Zhang Rong praised again and again while listening. When Tang Zhao said that he simplified the operation of the magic weapon, he praised: "Xiaotang has a compassionate mind." He also heard Zhu Yang talk about the soul road, and also praised: "Good layout, good courage, What a talent. There are so many talents in the world!"

Hearing the turtle bandits at last, Zhang Rong shook his head, suddenly sneered, and said, "They think they can do it again? But it's wishful thinking."

Tang Zhaodao: "Sir, you also know where they came from?" He understood in a blink of an eye, and said with a smile: "I forgot, sir, who compiled the history of Wei, how can I not know?"

Zhang Rong said: "That's right. The world is familiar with the former Wei Dynasty, and I'm one of them. This dynasty is fundamentally wrong. Now that the Great Jin Dynasty is losing its strength, it's not for these thieves to reach out, otherwise it will be a catastrophe. People with lofty ideals They are also not allowed to go against the grain.”

Tang Zhao's heart moved, and he followed him in a low voice: "Mister, do you think you are about to enter a world of great controversy? I heard from my husband's tone that I just said that I will offer advice all the way to Youzhou, Qingzhou and finally Yunzhou. ..."

Zhang Rong shook his hand and said, "What is the phoenix perched on the phoenix tree? I'm just a middle-aged man who still doesn't admit defeat. I still think I'm a good bird and fly around to find a place to rest. The center is really in a mess. Most of the world's princes are self-reliant." A tyrannical and short-sighted person. I am getting more and more disappointed along the way, if I can't even make it to the well-known virtuous Marquis Gao Yuan, I will have to be a tortoise dragging its tail in the mud."

Tang Zhaodao: "Junhou should be good..." He has never met Gaoyuanhou, he only knows that Xingji admires Gaoyuanhou, and in Yunzhou he has actually practiced benevolent government, and now the people's life is better, If he is not a hero, he should be a virtuous one, right?

If you compare it with Lingzhou and Yanzhou, it is simply the Holy Master.

It's just that seeing is believing, he has limited experience, so he can't give Zhang Rong a guarantee, and who knows what the bright master in Zhang Rong's heart is like?
Zhang Rongdao: "Pipe the leopard in the pipe, I plan to observe the district inspector first. But Xiaotang, you are a first-rate talisman sword master, heavy swordsman and inspector, and you are also hiding your secrets."

Tang Zhao hurriedly apologized. How could he compare with Zhang Rong in terms of hiding his secrets?
Zhang Rong continued: "Since you are a talisman sword master, have you ever learned the method of relocating the talisman formation in the Kongmo Nest?"

Tang Zhaodao: "I have a little experience... Ah, don't you..."

Zhang Rong nodded and said: "When I was compiling the book, I read the collection, and there is a method to move the magic cave. But I don't understand the formula, and I don't understand the meaning, but the words can be memorized. If you want to learn, I can recite it to you word for word, but I don’t know you..."

Tang Zhao cheered up, "Of course that's fine, sir, please teach me!"

Although he has some plans, but to learn one more method is to be more insured, how precious it is at this time!
