sword sentient beings

Chapter 606 Messenger

It's also a good idea.

Although more than half of the people are not interested in the Deep Shadow Club now, the objective fact is that everyone is stuck on the mountain, unable to go down for a while, and idle is idle, so it is better to find something to do.

Among them, the manor owners are more interested in this.

The tragic end of the other manor owners today made the survivors fearful and sad, and their hearts were full of gloom that couldn't be resolved.But when everyone got out of the emotions above, they realized: they still have to live.

And... Everyone else has an accident, but I am fine, and the probability of getting less than one out of ten is my turn. Isn't this something to be thankful for?

This kind of rejoicing quickly spread out, turned into joy, and then turned into complacency.

Except for a very few far-sighted slave owners who will worry that after the overall power of the two mountains declines, their status in the eyes of outside dignitaries will plummet, and the initiative in future business will be taken away by others, and the bargaining power will be lost. Most of them just want to think: With the competitors gone, wouldn't it be easier to do business in the future?Rare things are more expensive, so the charges will be greatly increased?

In contrast, those outsiders are really not interested, but maybe when they come to the business field and smell the smell of wealth and interests, the familiar feeling will come back, right?
Everyone had their own concerns, and everyone talked about their own treatment and so on, and then dispersed. After all, today is really exhausted physically and mentally.

Yuan envoys don't need to rest, Manying proposes to interrogate Wu Shayu overnight.Jinwu is not tired, so he will accompany him naturally.

Tang Zhao is going to rest too, and the swordsman will be tired too.Today, he just had a big battle, and nine out of ten of his sword energy was consumed, and his mind was even more depleted. In fact, he was in a very bad state, but he was just holding on in front of others so that no one could see it.Jinwu watched the interrogation, so he didn't have to go.Wu Shayu couldn't say anything, the old guy didn't know about Yinglang's severance and he didn't participate in it, but his position in the Longevity Society was limited, so it was impossible to say categorically that the Longevity Society didn't do it.

Besides, even if he speaks nonsense, Jinwu can keep him from speaking at any time.

Tang Zhao was very relieved of His Majesty the Golden Crow. Although it had been in the water for a long time and its thoughts were slightly different from ordinary people, it was clear in its heart.Even if it's not as sophisticated as Manying's human nature and quick response, it's completely different from an idiot like Xinying, and she's trustworthy.

Tang Zhao was about to go to rest, when suddenly he saw a person following him. This was an unfamiliar face, because Sunset Manor had arranged for everyone to wash up in the evening, and now it looked clean and tidy, even somewhat bookish, like a scholar.

The man stepped forward and cupped his hands: "My surname is Liu, and I come from the capital. I wonder if it is convenient for Your Excellency Tang to speak in private?"

Tang Zhao sized him up, he didn't want to socialize, but he was more easy-going, seeing the politeness of the other party, he still said: "Come here."

Now Tang Zhao has a small yard in Sunset Manor, complete with living room, flower hall, bedroom, warm pavilion, and a small garden, which Jinwu asked the people of Sunset Manor to tidy up. It is said that Wu Shayu originally left it for Gui Rong .Now it is naturally owned by Tang Zhao, which is a matter of course.

After Tang Zhao showed his strength, he was regarded by everyone as having a higher status than the new owner, so he should naturally enjoy any kind of treatment.

After entering the living room, there was not even a single servant in the yard. All the servants of Sunset Manor were still nervously dealing with the wreckage of the stand, and Tang Zhao didn't need anyone to serve him.

Tang Zhaodao: "Isn't this place clean enough? Please sit down, sir. It's getting late, so try to keep your story short."

Scholar Liu said respectfully: "Naturally, I dare not waste your time. Student Liu Hu, His Highness King Shou, is a mere guest minister, and I have met Tang Jianxia."

He had previously discussed business with Lord Fuhu, not to mention the identity of the person behind him, he didn't even know his own name, that was because he looked down on Lord Fuhu and felt that he didn't deserve to know.But facing Tang Zhao now is completely different, not to mention guessing that Tang Zhao might have a prominent status outside, even seeing such a young and powerful swordsman, if he doesn't bring out the King of Shou, he himself feels that he has no confidence.

Tang Zhaodao: "Shouwang..."

He is not very familiar with government affairs outside of Yunzhou, but he has basic common sense.He remembered that Shou Wang was the current emperor's uncle, a veteran of the three dynasties, and his status was very important.When the Empress Dowager came to the court, she was a restrictive force, but now she is even more respected after she is in power.

Tang Zhao doesn't know whether the King of Shou is more famous than real or still holds great power. Anyway, he just knows that he is a very expensive and powerful person.This golden branch and jade leaf is much higher than Gao Yuanhou.

But... what does that have to do with Tang Zhao?
With Tang Zhao's current strength and potential, he is no longer afraid of any dignitaries in the world. The reason why he listens to Gao Yuanhou is because Gao Yuanhou and the prosecutor are kind to him. Don't care about Tang Zhao.

Although I don't know about this King of Shou, but since he sent people to Wangliang Mountain, of course he didn't do good deeds. I'm afraid he is one of the big men who sheltered Wangliang Mountain?
Thinking of this, Tang Zhao had a very bad impression of this old guy who was far away in the capital.

Tang Zhao said politely but not enthusiastically: "Since you are the envoy of King Shou, please sit down."

The two sat down, and Liu Hu exchanged a few words of greeting. Seeing Tang Zhao's expression was cold and indifferent, he quickly got to the point and said, "Your Excellency, do you know how longevity can prolong life?"

Tang Zhaodao: "I don't know. If Liu Keqing is interested, you might as well go and interrogate Wu Shayu together. Presumably with the face of King Shou, it won't be difficult to add you in."

Liu Hu gritted his teeth secretly, he came on behalf of King Shou, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's gate, if he was in the five capitals, even a swordsman would not be so rude to him.It's a pity that the name of the prince is not very good in the local area now, let alone the lawless place of Wangliang Mountain.

He had to continue to speak more bluntly: "Your Excellency, the Longevity Association has taken a lot of life today, right? Let alone a few hundred people, even if each person is given one year, it will be hundreds of years."

Tang Zhao already guessed what he was going to say, how could he agree to such a thing?

Immediately said: "I know that, Gui Rong is fighting with me, and his accomplices are drawing other people's strength to support him. If not, he would have died a long time ago. It's a pity that those people's lives were wasted, and he still has to die."

Liu Hu continued: "Could it be that all the absorbed lifespans have been given to Gui Rong? The sacrificial formation is still in operation after death, and there should be a lot left. The remaining lifespan should be in the hands of the leader?"

Seeing that Tang Zhao was indifferent, he further said bluntly: "Everyone loves such a good thing as life span. Whether it is a nobleman or a peerless powerhouse, who doesn't want to live for a long time? But I feel that your excellency may be an exception."

Tang Zhao didn't answer his words, so Liu Hu had no choice but to continue: "I can see that you are very young, but your strength is already at the top among swordsmen, and you really have a bright future. For you, the important thing is definitely not the future. In the age of decay, you can linger on for a few more years, but take advantage of the good times to climb up. Once you become a sword fairy, is the lifespan of a mere few hundred years still in sight?"

He said with a smile on his face and said, "Resources are very important for cultivation. I think the resources that a swordsman needs are rare in the world, right? Going to the front line to find them depends on luck. At that time, you will inevitably join a big force and have to go through life and death. Why not How about trying the safest method? For example, go to a real big shot to exchange for it?"

"Nowadays there are a lot of people in the world, but there is a place of size, as if you are the emperor of the earth. But in fact, the court is the court, and the royal family is the royal family. The essence of the heaven and the earth is still concentrated in the hands of the royal family. And Shou Wang is one of the most noble people in the world. What's more, he has always been fair and benevolent, and he is a virtuous corporal. When you trade with him, you will never be afraid of being bullied. You will only be appreciated and rewarded extra. Is there anything cheaper in the world than this in exchange for a useless thing for a very useful treasure?"

Tang Zhao looked at him, suddenly smiled, and said, "That's right. If I had those lifespans in my hands, I would be tempted. Unfortunately, I don't have them here."

Liu Hu's face darkened slightly, and he said, "Your Excellency, don't you believe me?"

Tang Zhao faced him with a slightly gloomy face, and said, "Could it be that your honor doesn't believe me?"

Liu Hu was speechless for a moment, and then remembered that this person was not only powerful, but also very bickering. Several times in battle, Gui Rong was forced to go berserk by his tongue, and he had read a lot of books, and his mind was very clear. Reasoning, coaxing, and threats are useless.

You can only use lures, if the lures don't move, then you really don't move.

Unwilling to give up, Liu Hu persuaded a few more words, Tang Zhao insisted all the time: "I didn't see it, I didn't know, don't talk nonsense" three times, Liu Hu had no choice.

In the end, Liu Hu had no choice but to stand up and said: "I know that you can't make up your mind for a while. But if you have a decision, come to me at any time. I have been waiting for you in Yulang City. If you don't trust me, you and I can go to Beijing together. Meet His Highness King Shou in person, and His Highness will present the reward in person."

Tang Zhao didn't care, and watched him leave.

The tortoise shell, and those remaining lifespans are of course in his hands.

But he won't trade it with some powerful people.

He will return them to those who deserve them.

After a night of nothing, the next morning, he got the news,

The interrogation of Wu Shayu was unsuccessful.It wasn't even Jinwu's hands and feet, but Wu Shayu himself refused to say.

Seeing Envoy Yuan, he yelled: "I want to see Master Wang! I have made meritorious service for the two mountains! Which of you is qualified to judge me?"

After speaking, he shut himself up.

It's not an adjective, it's really autistic.He turned into a statue, not saying a word, not moving, not responding to poking him, not moving his body when pulling him, not even opening his mouth.

This must be some kind of secret technique or sword technique.It's just that people have nothing to do with him, even torture is useless.

Several yuan used various methods to torture him all night, not to mention waking him up, without even causing a few injuries.The only success was when Xin Ying got angry and shaved off his hair, beard and eyebrows, turning his head into a marinated egg.

Jin Wu watched from the side, but did not make a move.He naturally didn't want to join in the fun, but thinking about it, even if he did it himself, it would be easy to kill him, but it might not be possible to wake him up without injury and then ask him something.

The last few envoys also gave up and sat there looking at each other.

Xinying said: "What should we do? We really can't go back? Do we want to die and go back?"

Manying had no choice but to "go back to death" still hesitating.

At this time, Jin Wu said: "Everyone from the Yuan Dynasty, isn't this the sacrifice that will be held soon? Counting from today, it will only be seven days, and you will just hang around in the humble house for a few days, and attend the Deep Shadow Meeting by the way. At that time, everyone will set off together , go to the altar, and ask the two masters to uphold justice. It has appeared, what can't be solved? It doesn't matter whether you want to restore Yinglang or increase Yuanshi. Let's rest for a few days."

Yuan envoys looked at each other and could only nod.

The Golden Crow was proud, its task was to restrain as much power as possible in the manor, and let the outsiders do whatever they wanted. Isn't this easy to do?
Things are settled on my side, now it's up to you guys.
