Sacrifice to Feed Demons [Comprehensive Martial Arts]

Regarding the topic of who is behind the scenes, I basically started thinking about it from Chapter 3, but until now there is no specific clue.

The only clue that was revealed was that those few insiders were more mysterious than the other, hesitant to speak more than the other, what could be guessed didn't need to be said, what could be said... and what they said was more vague than anyone else.

Even if it involves the wealth of an entire kingdom, it's too much to achieve this level, right?

But in fact, the truth sometimes needs to be concealed in the fog far more than people think. If you speak the truth rashly, not only will you not get the desired result, but most people will even misunderstand it, which will implicate you in revealing your true self. .

Seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, like instinct, is an inescapable sin in human nature.

But if you think about it from another angle, the silence at this time may be understood as the patience to get things done.

Like Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang, they can be the "protagonists", not afraid of the crisis in the mist, and explore the truth of the matter, then there is another group of people, with different purposes, who are also working slowly and meticulously, waiting for the truth to emerge. The moment of coming out of the water came.

Needless to say, Gong Jiu is such a person, and now he is very curious whether the person sitting opposite him is the same kind of person as himself.

In the restaurant where the cups are exchanged, there are many diners entering the curtains, and the jade curtains block the faces of the diners in each guest room. The distance between each room also ensures that as long as you are not yelling, no one will deliberately poke your head over to listen to your occasional gaffe at the wine table.

This kind of design is unique in a street in Chang'an, because of its confidentiality, it is highly praised by many dignitaries.

But it is not so good. The dishes from the retired royal chef of the palace can leave a long-term customer for each dish. The elegant and dignified decoration in the building is more like a restaurant full of ink fragrance than a smoky restaurant. Academy.

Although the distance between people is far apart, the same thing is that there are always different people watching the same scene.

The great wisdom contained in the small building often makes many scholars nostalgic, and once again the shopkeeper has increased the stable source of customers.

To this day, when Gong Jiu chooses to entertain people, he also chooses here intentionally or unintentionally.

As soon as he was seated, he was familiar with all the things in the restaurant, and he talked about the delicious food in the restaurant with meaning. It seemed that he had eaten them all, but the fact is...he had really eaten them all.

"I have been eating this old man's dishes since I was a child, and it has not changed for more than ten years."

After he finished speaking, he picked up a plate of fresh meat from the squirrel mandarin fish as if to prove it. It tastes delicious and sweet. It is completely different from the authentic squirrel mandarin fish, but the taste is delicious and it is worth lingering.

"When I ate this dish for the first time, I thought about letting this cook work for me. Now more than ten years have passed, and I have achieved a small goal back then."

The meaning expressed by Gong Jiu when talking and laughing is not as innocuous as in the words. It reveals that this famous restaurant in Chang'an belongs to him in disguise, but the deeper meaning is very dangerous.

Of course, Ji Xianjun, who went to Chang'an for an appointment, couldn't pretend that he didn't hear it, but he didn't mean to drink. He doesn't drink often, and he can't feel the heroism of drinking in a big bowl and eating meat, but he tastes the exquisite food. , Delicious food jumped on the tip of his tongue, which also made him feel a little better and more patient.

For a man, being ambitious is not wrong, and making mistakes makes the difference between right and wrong, but for Gong Jiu, he didn't think he would do anything wrong at all, even though he was thinking about how to bring the whole country into his pocket In the past, his own actions have been hovering between verbal criticism and pen criticism, but he still wants, from the beginning he wanted a cook, and now he wants to win the whole country.

Ambition is so unreasonable, it is rooted deep in the heart like greed, it will break the ground and take root at some point, and then grow into a towering tree, and then it is out of control.

Afterwards, whether to become a Buddha or a demon, whether to rein in a horse from a precipice, or to achieve success depends on one's own chance.

The so-called man will conquer nature is not without, but there are few, but there are still some people who don't care about the difficulties and obstacles in front of them, and are determined to do something great.

Perhaps in Gong Jiu's view, seeking to usurp the throne is a great cause worth gamble for him, but it is not appropriate for him to put such thoughts in front of Ji Xianjun.

As mentioned above, Ji Xianjun is an emperor, and he is undoubtedly orthodox. If a "rebel" talks about this kind of topic with him, no matter how beautified, the picture will become embarrassing.Even if the two men have good looks and manners, and their speech and behavior are pleasing to the eye, but... the four characters of ninety-five respects already explain everything.

"If you are not in the right place, you will be criticized in the end."

Ji Xianjun whispered the whole sentence, not afraid of being heard by Gong Jiu at all, because the voice was close to a whisper, and he didn't even move his lips. From Gong Jiu's point of view, he was just silent.

Knowing a little bit about Ji Xianjun, he wanted to take him under his wing, but the reality would never allow him to be so rash. Gong Jiu pondered for a while, and the topic was changed without any violation. After all, they didn't talk about "business" in the first place. ", so he jokingly talked about Chu Liuxiang's situation. Not surprisingly, this was the first time Ji Xianjun looked at him directly.

"When you came to Chang'an, it seems that you left a bunch of things to Chu Liuxiang and the others, but do you know that when it comes to swordsmanship, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue are talented, but 20 years ago, a swordsman asked The peak is an unborn genius! To be an enemy of this kind of people, I am afraid that even Mr. Bat and Chu Xiangshuai will find it troublesome."

Ji Xianjun: "Do you think it's tricky?"

Gong Jiu said proudly: "Trouble and troublesome are two words, right?" Before he finished speaking, his hand was already on his waist.

That white jade belt is as delicate as a token of love given by a woman to her lover, but Gong Jiu, who is wearing it around her waist, knows that it is a peerless sword that only has three in the world. Flowing water, once rushing, will continue to flow, showing impermanence.

His actions did not avoid Ji Xianjun, so of course he also saw it, seeing through the gorgeous appearance and appreciating it.

"Nice sword."

Gong Jiu took these words as a compliment to herself, and accepted Ji Xianjun's compliment with a very thick skin.

Compared with the oppressive force when the two were alone in the carriage, this time Ji Xianjun's courage was much restrained. At first glance, there was nothing abnormal, but Gong Jiu knew it was an illusion.

Thanks to the exercises he practiced, he is more sensitive to Ji Xianjun's aura than anyone else in the world, so he has a secret that belongs to him alone.

By chance, he seemed to see the spiritual energy wandering between heaven and earth overflowing from the opponent's dantian in a blur.However, shape, energy, and spirit, hidden but not exposed, always surround him, like a small world of its own, making him think of the realm of a master.But just like this, he can only guess a little, so he won't panic, but he is still confused, he is as respectable as noble purple in that breath, which is exactly the appearance of purple energy coming from the east.

With the addition of visions, people themselves can also be extraordinary. It is difficult for people to calm down, but it is impossible not to be calm...

Thinking about this, Gong Jiu couldn't help sighing, the rare distress turned into excitement burning in his eyes, this is also the main reason why Ji Xianjun always feels that this person's "eyes are burning" and makes people uncomfortable.

After all, at this time, he hadn't thought that anyone could see through his abnormalities, so later, he was shocked by this "ordinary" person from the martial arts plane, and once again made him wonder about the possibility of the "human" race. Sigh and laugh three times.

The faint chatter and laughter coming from the two private rooms next door is the only sound left in this room. If the breathing sound that should be there is not audible, it is no longer a subtle "sound".

But this kind of behavior is very normal in the first place, they are not considered acquaintances, no matter how many gossips are mentioned, they are just to the point, it is better to talk about business.

For example, just continue chatting on the previous topic.

Gong Jiu is smart enough, he is basically an omnipotent genius, although most of the time it is others who support him instead of him, but how to enliven the atmosphere is not difficult for him at all.

I saw him pat the table, and every movement would be magnified in this room where the smell of needles could be heard. When Ji Xianjun shifted his gaze, he smiled and said firmly, "You know that the most difficult thing is the whole thing. Who is your character?"

Ji Xianjun said calmly: "Just sort out what happened and it's almost clear."

Gong Jiu played with taste: "Isn't it Huo Xiu?"

Ji Xianjun glanced across: "He is useless now."

Martial arts training is useless.

So what if he calls himself the number one expert in the world?

The state of mind does not match the strength, no matter how high the martial arts is, it will become a formidable beast. The reason why people are human is precisely because of their superiority in intelligence. Martial arts are only auxiliary, but there are always people who put the cart before the horse, which is inevitable in the martial arts. fork in the road.

Ji Xianjun said: "This is a game. It looks small, but in fact it involves a lot. From the beginning, I thought of calculating Yuan Suiyun, taking down Bat Island, and then the sniper killings of both sides focused people's attention. On both of them, don't you feel that the visual range is narrowed all of a sudden?"

Gong Jiu sighed: "Yes, but in the game, few people can jump out to watch it. It seems that apart from this game, those parties that belong to the property of the Jinpeng Dynasty don't seem to realize that their struggle is actually It is also a pawn in one's hand."

Ji Xianjun: "Including you."

Gong Jiu bluntly said: "Yes, including me!"

Ji Xianjun retracted her gaze, as if concluding: "Money touches people's hearts."

Gong Jiu: "Ignore the murderous intentions behind, but it's just like this, there is room for existence." The raised wine glass was placed in front of Ji Xianjun, "Lu Xiaofeng was entrusted by that woman to track down the treasure case, I believe they will be with each other soon Chu Liuxiang and the others met, because whether it was Xuejiazhuang or Qingyilou, they were just someone's cover."

Ji Xianjun: "He hides well."

Gong Jiu's eyes were smiling, implying something.

"But it's not good enough, at least it didn't escape your eyes. Speaking of which, how did you think that Huo Xiu would be a breakthrough? The Xue Family Village is also a good choice because of Xue Yiren, who is number one in the world. With the sword in place, most people would feel safe, and would then hide under his banner."

Ji Xianjun's response was still brief.

"After all, it's a tiger skin."

One sentence points out the difference between the two.

If a fox pretends to be a tiger, there must be a sufficient interest relationship between the fox and the tiger. Obviously, it is someone else who has an interest relationship with Xue Yiren, and the relationship between that other person and someone is not stable.

Gong Jiu is not stupid, he can almost understand it when he hears it, and another question arises logically.

"What about Huo Xiu?"

Ji Xianjun silently raised her eyes.

"Do you know what the Jinpeng Dynasty was once popular for a while?"

Gong Jiu immediately recalled the information about the Jinpeng Dynasty, a small country that has been exterminated for 30 years, there are not many records left, but there are always some useful ones.

Ji Xianjun waited for a while, and Gong Jiu's voice came out very hesitantly.

"You mean witchcraft?"

The author has something to say:

I want God to unfold it again!quack!
