great mandate

At first, the emperor really just wanted to come to see the world.

It's just that after he entered the brothel, prostitutes flocked to surround him because of his handsome appearance and expensive clothes, and told him that "the random flowers gradually fall into the charming eyes", "involuntary", "uncontrollable", so they started After thinking about it, I hugged left and right and went to the wing room. I drank and recited poems, listened to the piano and watched dances.

At this moment, the two prostitutes froze, closed their eyes, and fell asleep.

The emperor was startled, turned his head to look: "..."

Zhan Qingshui smiled as usual: "The little one just touched their sleeping points. It's getting late, please go back with the little one."

The arrow is on the string, but encountering such a twists and turns, the emperor can't be said to be angry, not to mention, how embarrassing!

He suppressed his smile, sat up with a dark face, didn't move, and didn't speak.

Zhan Qingshui stood aside respectfully, not daring to urge him in a fit of anger.

The master and servant were so silent, the house was quiet, but the outside was still lively.

The emperor finally lost his anger, and was about to get up when Zhan Qingshui held his shoulders and covered his mouth.

He was startled again.

"Slave is taking the liberty, I hope you will forgive me." Zhan Qingshui whispered next to his ear, "The walls have ears, so don't make a sound."

The emperor was puzzled, so he nodded.

Only then did Zhan Qingshui let go of him, walked to a wall, stretched out his hand to touch it gently, and then attached his ear to listen.

The emperor became more and more puzzled, and tiptoed along, imitating Zhan Qingshui, reaching out to touch it—but Zhan Qingshui grabbed his wrist.

Zhan Qingshui frowned and shook his head at the emperor.

——Zhan Qingshui is a martial arts practitioner, and also used to being a spy. He is light and cautious in his hands and feet, keen in touch, and experienced in experience. How can the emperor compare with him.

When the emperor touches it, he doesn't expect him to find anything, and it's a good luck not to be noticed by the other party.

Just Zhan Qingshui touched the wall, and immediately confirmed that the wall is not thick and firm.

Most of the wing rooms in places like brothels and brothels are like this. Regardless of how magnificent the surface decoration is, if you take away the surface, many of them are houses built with jerry-built materials.

Therefore, the voice from the next room was transmitted, and Zhan Qingshui, who had a keen hearing, heard it.

It's just that I didn't hear it very clearly just now, I only heard the words "Emperor" and "Shen Wuji" vaguely.

Although it doesn't seem to be a very surprising thing to talk nonsense about important people here, but Zhan Qingshui East Factory was a spy, and when he heard this, he subconsciously listened to it clearly, otherwise he would not be at ease.

The emperor was at a loss, but he was unwilling to be lonely.

He didn't need to touch it, but he stretched his neck hard, pricked up his ears, and tried to listen to it.

The room where Zhan Qingshui and the emperor lived became more and more quiet, and the emperor secretly felt that his hearing was much sharper after concentrating on it for a long time.

Seeing this, Zhan Qingshui felt helpless and funny, so he pointed to his eyes, closed them again, and put his hands behind his ears, teaching him like this.

For those who don't know martial arts, this is the most effective way.

The emperor suddenly realized, nodded, imitating this, and continued to listen carefully.

After Zhan Qingshui comforted this guy, he continued to listen carefully.

The emperor listened for a while, and finally he heard more and more clearly, and he could hear a complete sentence out of ten.

but……

He opened his eyes, his expression didn't understand, but he became more and more confused.

Taking a closer look, Zhan Qingshui's expression gradually became more and more serious, his brows were wrinkled and thoughtful.

emperor:"……"

true or false?Why did I hear the neighbor next door chattering and saying something out of nowhere?Does Zhan Qingshui still know this?

Zhan Qingshui does understand Sanskrit.

He not only knows Sanskrit, but also other foreign languages.

Because Shen Wuji said that in the future, the New Deal might open customs and do business with distant lands. At that time, if someone has learned a foreign language early, he will be able to take on important tasks and have a great future, so he privately forced him to develop Qingshui studies.

In Shen Wuji's words: Anyway, if you have nothing to do all day long, learn a few more crafts so that you won't starve to death, and it will save you from thinking about things all day long. It's better to do something serious.

Is this human talk?

Naturally not.

After all, Shen Wuji is not just his uncle!

Now Zhan Qingshui can probably understand what the neighbor is saying.

There are five people next door, two of them are from Tianzhu, one is called Master Deshan and the other is called Master Deci.The other two were from the Central Plains, and they had come to join the two Tianzhu people.The last one is a woman, she looks like a prostitute from the Chunhua Pavilion, but she is actually helping them cover up.

"..."

So the four of you asked a girl to come into the room, wouldn't it be suspicious?

Zhan Qingshui slandered in disgust.

According to what they said, the two Tianzhu mages came to the Central Plains this time, entrusted by a nobleman in the Central Plains, and brought precious dharma utensils, sect sacred objects, and rare medicinal materials from Tianzhu, and they wanted to cooperate with this nobleman to test a medicine. big plan.

It's just that something went wrong along the way.

The two mages are actually just apprentices, and what matters is their master, Master Wamei.

However, Master Wamei, on his way north, was caught by the local villagers for molesting a woman from a good family, and turned him away to the government office.

This is just a small thing, and it will come out with a little money.

However, there is still a lot of prestige about the cult in Meizhen, especially in the south near the border of Meizhen. Everyone knows that the [-]-year-old Shen Wuji kidnapped his sweetheart for the cult, and he was furious. town.

Later, the imperial court issued a strict order, ordering all provinces, counties, townships, and villages to thoroughly investigate and clean up. If such absurd things happen again, the officials involved will all be punished.

——Although it was an order from the imperial court, who wouldn't say that it was the order of Eunuch Shen?

When Eunuch Shen got angry, even Eunuch Cao could be dismounted, let alone you and other petty officials?

The officials below are naturally trembling and never dare to take risks on the cusp of the storm.

Great Master Nawamei sent it to the county government office. The county magistrate took a look and gasped. First of all, this so-called mage looks very different from the people in the Central Plains. When asked, he came from Tianzhu...

Tianzhu, the county magistrate is not familiar with him, and he only hears about it occasionally in the scriptures.

What script?

Strange conversation books of all kinds of gods and demons.

Nowadays, there are more and more books on the market, with great business opportunities and great competition.

In order to be unconventional, to stand out, and to confuse the real with the fake, the editors are no longer satisfied with focusing on China, but from the book and the map to select regions or countries that ordinary people will never go to in their lifetime, or even seldom heard of. as the background of the story.

Among them, Tianzhu, because of the visit of Master Sanzang in the Tang Dynasty, was covered with an extremely mysterious veil, supplemented by such historical facts, it once became a very popular place in this kind of storybook novels.

The county magistrate first heard the name Tianzhu, and there were many stories in his mind, such as ghost faces with fangs, strange monsters, ghost children, and demon fetuses...

Then I opened Master Wamei's carry-on bag and looked at it, and immediately the whole room gasped!

The strangely shaped golden magic weapon in the package was dazzling!

Unless it is extremely pure gold, it cannot have this effect!

It is also inlaid with various gemstones, shining brightly.

Everyone was amazed, and they couldn't help being a little cautious. For a while, even Shen Gonggong's reputation and terror faded away. They were thinking that if they could collect these magical artifacts, it would be possible to make an exception to show that my host is welcoming guests. passion...

At this moment, Wu Zuo, who was dragged here for some reason, smelled a subtle aura.

While everyone was watching the pile of gold wares, he went to another shabby package that no one cared about, opened it, and when he saw it, he took a deep breath, took a step back, and shouted in shock: "Corpse oil! It's corpse oil!"

A bold yamen servant stepped forward and used a wooden stick to pick apart the cloth. Before he could take a closer look, the servant screamed again: "Baby corpse! It's a baby corpse!"

I saw a jar roll out, revealing two swarthy, skinny mummies of babies.

Everyone in the hall had never seen such a world before, Qiqi's face was pale.

At this moment, the foreman screamed again: "Don't touch that gold vessel, it's afraid it's something to kill people, there's something evil on it!"

A few people were so frightened that they threw the gold utensils on the ground and backed away in a panic.

On that day, the official office was closed, and everyone gathered together to discuss nervously what to do about this matter.

If you don't report it to the court, you will release the Great Master Wamei?

If the great mage went to other places to use demons to harm people, causing trouble, and they will be judged in the future, wouldn't they be implicated for no reason?

Report to the court?

The imperial court will inevitably send people here to go through the process, not to mention entertaining the servants at that time, which will inevitably require a lot of tribute, and the local area has always been barren and cannot make ends meet, so how can there be extra tribute expenses?If you don't pay tribute, you are afraid of offending your superiors.

It's just a clean job...

He is also afraid of his incorruptibility.

Since ancient times, saying that an official is clean has nothing to do with "too many things".

Once there are many things, maybe he will follow the idea of ​​"everyone is here" and take a tour of the local area.

But local inspections are not allowed.

This inspection will always find some loopholes.

Although it's not a big loophole, it's not too small when added up.

The point is that after the tour, the imperial court will inevitably plug these loopholes, which will make everyone's life even more difficult in the future.

So it can't be reported, and the court can't let the court find out that they have missed such a small comfortable place where the sky is high and the emperor is far away.

However, this can neither be released nor reported, so should we raise this great mage?

Well, it might as well be an idea.

But that author strongly opposed it, and he justified it.

He said, this archmage is possessed with sorcery and evil spirits, who knows why, who knows what abilities he has?Are you still here?Do you think you have a long life?

Probably because Wu Zuo was over [-] years old and the father of the county magistrate's concubine, so everyone didn't interrupt him, they could only listen to him, and even after being persuaded by him, they said they were afraid.Can't release, can't report, can't raise...

Everyone gradually had a bold idea, looked at each other, licked their dry lips, and swallowed with difficulty.

Then, it can only be killed.

When Master Deshan and Master Deci came back from exploring the road, they found that the master was missing even the magic weapon, so they hurriedly inquired around, and after going all the way, they finally found the county government office, and the clue was broken.

The people in the government office insisted that they had never seen this person, and turned around and reported to the county magistrate, saying that they had found two accomplices of mages.

If it wasn't for Master Deshan's foresight, seeing that something was wrong, and dragging his younger brother to run quickly, he might have disappeared by now.

The two brothers and sisters wandered around the area for a while, but they didn't expect that the master was dead.

But no one was alive, no dead body was seen, and the two of them dared not go back to Tianzhu—the nobleman from the Central Plains was not looking for their master to cooperate, but the master's brother, but the master's brother felt that something was wrong and refused.

When their master heard about this, he told the two of them in private that this time it was a desperate gamble, and if they won, they would be inexhaustible wealth for Middle-earth.

For this reason, the master teamed up with the two of them, stole the treasures of the sect, and fled to the Central Plains.

In short, there is no other way now, the two brothers and sisters had no choice but to go north quickly, find a partner, and let them quickly find the master and retrieve the magic weapon.
