Chitose words

Chapter 202 "Luo Shu Mantra"

Although Luo Zhuo and Bo Xi were very reluctant, they had to obey the instructions of the Holy Envoy of Hulu and temporarily leave the courtyard.

After they left, the courtyard suddenly became quiet.

The three of them were silent for a moment, not knowing how to speak or who would speak first.

The messenger of the Hulu Holy Altar, Mu Mu, who has high moral character and has been doing good all his life, is old and has been guarding the holy land of Yuwenbu for generations.

In fact, Ling You and Han Changsheng were not completely sure whether Mobuye would tell them about the past events related to the Yuwen Department.

However, Xie Zhao always seems to have his own calculations.

She thought about it for a while, then sighed unbearably and said:

"It is very benevolent that the Holy Envoy is still willing to summon us despite being unwell. After thinking about it, I really can't bear to use those treacherous words to deceive you at this time."

In fact, although Xie Zhao is no longer as conceited as she was when she was a teenager, she still understands herself fairly well.

She knew that her intelligence was almost magical, and it was never just a rumor in the world.

Coupled with the blessing of the small and large Sanskrit arts that she has already mastered and used freely, if she really wants to get something out of this aging and mentally weak old man, it is not impossible.

At worst, she would feel uncomfortable for a while because of the rash use of her inner energy.

Xie Zhao did have the idea of ​​using the technique of small and large Sanskrit sounds to make the Hulu Holy Envoy weak in heart.

But when she actually saw this kind old man face to face, she gave up this idea in an instant.

She didn't do this not because she felt sorry for herself, nor because she couldn't bear to damage her body.

She just felt pity for the old man in front of her who had been kind and helpful throughout her life.

She would not take advantage of others' danger and use the alienation skills and intelligence she learned from Shentai Palace on such a respectable martial arts senior.

The Holy Envoy Hulu burst into laughter upon hearing this.

His face, which has long since faded and aged, carries a wordless compassion.

"Thank you, little friend, if you have anything you don't understand, it's okay to say it. I've wasted a hundred years in this life, and I have a lot of old friends in the past, but I don't have many who can be called 'friends'.

And your master can be regarded as an old and forgotten friend.We had a close conversation, and he understood the sadness of my "sentient way", and I also understood the sadness in his heart.

So thank you, little friend, for asking me something. If I can answer it, I will tell you everything. "

Ling You and Han Changsheng's hearts moved slightly.

The words of Holy Envoy Hulu were really honest and sincere, and brought a glimmer of hope to their hearts.

However, the three of them had decided on the road before. After arriving at the Hulu Holy Altar, Xie Zhao alone would take charge of everything.

After all, Ling You's status as a mother is extraordinary. In order to avoid making too many mistakes and saying something that shouldn't be said, they still have to pay attention to their words and propriety.

Therefore, Xie Zhao did not look at them and communicate with them at this time.

She didn't quite understand the description of the "suffering" in her master's heart by the Holy Envoy Hulu, but the truth about the "Shao Guang Mace Immortal" incident today was imminent.

So Xie Zhao looked directly into the old man's cloudy eyes and spoke frankly and honestly:

"Thanks to my ancestor Yu Yin for being candid. In fact, what I want to ask about is an old matter that may be closely related to the Yuwen Department more than ten years ago. It involves the secrets of the Yuwen Department. I wonder if the Holy Envoy can tell the truth."

Holy Envoy Hulu called her "little friend", quite a bit wanting to be on equal terms with her and to have separate opinions with her master, High Priest Feng Zhi.

This is his respect for the "Thousand-year-old Sword Immortal" Fu Jingci who aspires to the top of martial arts and protects the stability of a country's mountains and rivers.

However, Xie Zhao did not want to be rude to others. She still called herself a "junior" in front of this martial arts senior who was over 100 years old.

Holy Envoy Hulu nodded gently: "Please tell me."

She paused briefly and continued:
"Seventeen years ago, Tianchen of the Southern Dynasty and Hanyong of the Northern Dynasty had not signed an armistice agreement. At that time, there were many disputes in the temples of the two countries, and the border disputes were constant friction. But they were all open and honest confrontations with real swords and guns. , I have nothing to say."

She looked at Holy Envoy Hulu quietly and slowly asked the most crucial sentence.

"Unexpectedly, 17 years ago, the Yuwen Ministry suddenly broke the apparent balance between the two countries and secretly sent a team of troops whose strength should not be underestimated.

These people broke into pieces and went deep into the Tianchen Kingdom, and then reunited in Zhaoge City with the intention of sneaking into Tianchen Palace's Evernight City. This eventually led to Zhaoge City's forbidden army chasing them thousands of miles to the border between the two countries. "

Mo Boye was startled when he heard this.

He had not thought before that this was what Xie Zhao wanted to ask.

He looked at Xie Zhao for a moment, and then suddenly asked:
"Can I ask, now that times have changed and Xie Xiaoyou is pursuing this matter again, what is the ultimate purpose?"

Han Changsheng couldn't hold it back, frowned and said:

"Purpose? Holy envoy, no matter what the purpose of our inquiry is, there is only one truth of the matter, isn't it?"

Xie Zhao frowned.

She suddenly looked at him and shook her head slowly, her eyes showing warning.Han Changsheng groaned and turned his head uncomfortably, not daring to say anything.

His mouth is faster than his brain, and he has long forgotten what Xie Zhao told him before - "Talk less, it is best not to talk at all".

Xie Zhao turned back and continued to look directly at Holy Envoy Hulu. She suddenly asked:
"Will my purpose affect the Holy Envoy's answer?"

The Holy Envoy of Hulu smiled.

He sighed: "What Young Master Han said just now is right, no matter what the purpose is, the truth and answer will always be the same.

Therefore, Xie Xiaoyou's 'purpose' for asking about this matter will not change the original truth of this matter.But it will affect whether I can tell you this answer frankly. "

"I understand."

Xie Zhao also smiled.

The meaning of Holy Envoy Hulu has been made very clear.

The "identity" she asked about this matter was the key to whether he would frankly tell the whole story.

So she also said seriously: "The purpose of my inquiry is related to others, and it is indeed not convenient to inform the Holy Envoy for the time being. But if I can inform you of my position and identity when I inquired about this matter, I wonder if you will be relieved. And tell him frankly?"

"Oh?"

Holy Envoy Hulu looked at her intently, and suddenly asked with a smile:

"So, in what capacity does Mr. Xie come to inquire about this intrigue between the Northern and Southern Dynasties 17 years ago?"

Xie Zhao said seriously: "As you can see, it is the identity of the reckless man in front of you, Xie Zhao."

Holy Envoy Hulu was silent for a moment.

"really."

She nodded.

"No lie."

"Just Xie Zhao?"

"It's just Xie Zhao."

Han Changsheng and Ling You frowned slightly, looking at the riddle between them.

However, the next moment, Holy Envoy Hulu was silent for a moment, and then he relaxed and said:
"Okay, in that case, I would like to tell you the truth. I also believe that my little friend will not easily overturn the peace that is rare in today's world."

Xie Zhao laughed and shook his head.

"The Holy Messenger is pointing at me."

Holy Envoy Hulu sighed deeply and said, "I don't dare."

He said: "Seventeen years ago, the Yuwen Ministry sent a group of the most powerful elite troops among the tribes to go to Tianchen.

However, this team is not large in number, only more than 100 people, but they are all the best in the clan. "

"Why did Prince Uwenbu give up so much money? It couldn't be to steal the military information at that time."

Xie Zhao smiled lightly and continued: "If it were just for military intelligence, the detailed plan would only be to go deep into the Xie family's military commander's tent at Langya Pass. Although the border commander at that time was Xie Huanchen, one of the 'Three Heroes of the Xie Family', the detailed plan of the Yuwen Department could not easily succeed. . But if military intelligence goes deep into the hinterland of Zhaoge City, it will put the cart before the horse even more."

Holy Envoy Hulu sighed lightly and said:
"Yes, Xie Xiaoyou has a keen eye. The prince's move back then was not to steal military intelligence, but to act on orders."

Xie Zhao frowned.

"By order of the Hanyong Imperial Court?"

Holy Envoy Hulu looked at Xie Zhao quietly for a moment, then suddenly asked again:
"Thank you, little friend. I ask for your guarantee again and again. It's because I'm not magnanimous enough and it's a bit insulting.

But the matter is so important that I would like to ask one last time - are you really just checking this matter as 'Xie Zhao'?Do you really think that the truth told by the old man will not cause irreparable disputes? "

Xie Zhao looked back at him with open eyes.

"Although Xie is not as good as before, he still means what he says. I have no intention of using the past to stir up the turmoil in the world.

——Xie has no intention of causing trouble in the world. Regarding this point, the Holy Envoy should know my heart. "

"it is good."

Holy Envoy Hulu nodded slowly.

"This matter has to start with a world-famous ancient book called "The Poison God Ci"."

"It now has a well-known name, "Luoshu Mantra"."
