Chapter 993: A giant beast that has been silent for many years

When Chen Xiaoru came in, it was already dark, and the person who reported the battle situation on the Qin River side had withdrawn, so he walked in, he first looked at Fang Jie's face, and found that the lord was not unusual, and he was slightly relieved in his heart, which showed that there should be no accident in the battle situation on the Qin River.

"Lord, has General Xiahou crossed the Qin River?"

He asked with a smile.

Fang Xie nodded: "There are more than 10,000 people in the past, Zheng Ziyu's team has retreated twenty miles, the matter of crossing the river is finished, tonight, Xiahou's vanguard army can pass most of it, even if Zheng Ziyu reorganizes the people and wants to drive Xiahou back, it is not so easy." But...... More than 2,000 people were lost, and Xiahou also did his best. ”

Chen Xiaoru sighed: "Zheng Ziyu only needs to put the men and horses away, but General Xiahou has to try his best to cross the river and break the formation, and it is reasonable to suffer a greater loss." ”

"The swordsman has been recruited?"

Fang asked.

"Recruited."

Chen Xiaoru handed the confession recorded by his subordinates to Fang Xie with both hands: "Daozun didn't guess wrong, these swordsmen are really ...... The people of the Moon Shadow Hall, the person that the Lord Gong killed by the river was the Great Heavenly Monarch, one of the Nine Heavenly Monarchs of the Moon Shadow Hall. ”

"Great Heavenly Monarch?"

Fang Xie frowned slightly: "The name is enough to be imposing, but this person's strength is only nine grades at most, if such a person can be a great heavenly monarch, then wouldn't the strength of the other heavenly monarchs be weaker?" ”

"Not ......"

Chen Xiaoru said: "This Moon Shadow Hall collapsed more than two hundred years ago after being broken by Wan Xingchen, the hall master of the Ten Thousand Swords Hall, with a sword, and then disappeared after being surrounded and suppressed by various sects in the rivers and lakes. However, the strength of the Moon Shadow Hall was too great at the beginning, and there were still many people who escaped from that killing. Over the past 200 years, the Moon Shadow Hall has gradually recovered, but the current Moon Shadow Hall is different from the original, the current Moon Shadow Hall is mainly engaged in things that cannot be seen in the light, and does everything. ”

"The Great Heavenly Monarch of the Moon Shadow Hall is the weakest of the nine Heavenly Monarchs, and the Nine Heavenly Monarchs are the strongest."

After listening to Chen Xiaoru's explanation, Fang Xie nodded: "The Great Heavenly Monarch is the weakest, and the Nine Heavenly Monarch is the strongest. ”

He looked at Xiang Qingniu, and Xiang Qingniu pouted: "It's really nonsense." ”

As he was talking, someone outside asked to enter, and Fang Xie asked people to come in, and it was Sanjin Hou Wu who was inquiring about the news who also came back.

"Lord, caught a swordsman?"

As soon as he came in, Wu Yi asked.

"Hmm"

Fang explained: "Some news has been interrogated, how is the Hou Ye?" ”

"There is some news, but what I found is just some small people who are not in the rivers and lakes, and I don't know too much detail, he has gone back to see their master, and the day after tomorrow, the master will come to see me, and I will ask carefully."

Wu Yi asked, "Are you really from the Moon Shadow Hall?" ”

Chen Xiaoru nodded: "That's right, it's from the Moon Shadow Hall." In Zheng Ziyu's military camp before, it was the Great Heavenly Monarch of the Moon Shadow Hall, with the swordsmen under his door. This group of people is the weakest of the Nine Heavenly Monarchs of the Moon Shadow Hall, and the swordsmen are the disciples of the Great Heavenly Monarch. This person's status in the Moon Shadow Hall is too far worse than other Heavenly Monarchs, the strength of the Moon Shadow Hall is supreme, the position of the Heavenly Monarch is not fixed, as long as you feel that you have strength, anyone can challenge the Heavenly Monarch, and if you win, you can become the new Heavenly Monarch, if you lose, it depends on what the winner does, the winner wants the loser to die, and the loser can only die. ”

Xiang Qingniu sighed: "A sect that has endured in the shadows of the rivers and lakes for more than two hundred years has become stronger in this way, and has always maintained the strength of the Heavenly Monarch. If the Great Sui is still so stable and my master is still there, this sect may continue to hibernate. Now that they knew that those great cultivators on the rivers and lakes were almost dead, they came out...... It's really enduring. ”

"More than two hundred years ago, my master defeated the hall master of the Moon Shadow Hall, and then he didn't plan to do anything to the Moon Shadow Hall, but at that time, the Moon Shadow Hall was a big man, and he had ruled the rivers and lakes for so many years and had a deep grudge......

Xiang Qingniu said: "Now it seems that the current Moon Shadow Hall is completely different from the original Moon Shadow Hall, for more than two hundred years, the Moon Shadow Hall has relied on doing things in the dark to accumulate strength, which is not at all the same style as the Moon Shadow Hall that ruled the rivers and lakes before. However, the current Moon Shadow Hall seems to be more of a headache because we don't know about it. ”

Wu Yi nodded: "I have been walking in the world for so many years, and I still don't know that the Moon Shadow Hall is still in the rivers and lakes, which shows how deep this sect is hidden." ”

Chen Xiaoru said: "I interrogated that swordsman just now, because his status is limited, and the secrets he knows are also limited, he doesn't even know what the Heavenly Monarch above the Three Days Monarch is called and who it is." He is a disciple of the Great Heavenly Monarch, and he has only seen the Second Heavenly Monarch. According to him, the Moon Shadow Hall's business in the underworld is all run by the Great Heavenly Monarch and the Second Heavenly Monarch, not just the two Heavenly Monarchs of this generation, in the past two hundred years, people above the Three Heavenly Monarchs will never participate in the business. ”

"Because the cultivation of the Great Heavenly Monarch and the Second Heavenly Monarch is not very strong, even if they appear on the rivers and lakes, they will not be too eye-catching. Their means of doing business are to control some small sects that do not enter the stream, and take over the work of assassination. Not only that, but there are also dart bureaus, merchant house guards, and there are not a few people at the bottom who are controlled by them, but these controlled people don't know that they are doing things for the Moon Shadow Hall. ”

"This swordsman who was captured by the lord is a direct disciple of the Great Heavenly Monarch, so he knows a lot, if he catches someone outside the Moon Shadow Hall, he won't be able to ask anything."

"What is the purpose of their alliance with Gao Kaitai?"

Fang asked.

Chen Xiaoru paused for a moment, and then said in a somewhat strange tone: "The purpose of this time...... It's just to kill you and Daozun. Because...... You have some relationship with Daozun and Old Man Wan. ”

"Apparently more than that."

Wu Yiyi shook his head: "Either he just didn't say it all, or this swordsman doesn't know much." ”

……

……

Xiang Qingniu paced back and forth in the big tent with some impatience, looking a little annoyed: "This group of unsightly bastards of the Moon Shadow Hall, how dignified and upright my master was when he fought with the hall master of the Moon Shadow Hall, the two of them were the top of the martial arts in the rivers and lakes at that time, and that battle will definitely be passed down for centuries no matter who loses or who wins." Even if the Moon Shadow Hall was destroyed later, it had nothing to do with the Ten Thousand Swords Hall, and the people of the Ten Thousand Swords Hall had not killed the disciples of the Moon Shadow Hall. ”

"It's useless to talk about that now."

Wu Yiyi shook his head: "I always don't believe that a sect that can endure for more than two hundred years suddenly appears, just to avenge the revenge of more than two hundred years ago." Even if the Nine Heavenly Monarchs who were now in charge of the Moon Shadow Hall were the direct descendants of the Lord of the Moon Shadow Hall back then, for more than two hundred years, if the hatred was really that deep, they would have been unable to sit still for a long time. Being able to endure shows that hatred does not have a great impact on them. ”

Xiang Qingniu asked, "What does Master Hou mean?" ”

"The one who is pictured is not only the lord and you."

Wu Yi pondered for a while and said: "At this time, the Moon Shadow Hall was suddenly linked to Gao Kaitai, in fact, the goal was not too obscure, with the help of Gao Kaitai's power to make a comeback...... And then what? Do you want to become the hegemon again, or do you have a bigger goal? ”

"Bigger?"

Xiang Qingniu was stunned for a moment: "Is it possible that you still want to be the emperor?" ”

"This Great Heavenly Monarch has the strength of the Nine Ranks?"

Wu Yi asked.

Fang Xie nodded: "Under the ninth grade, it is not yet the peak." ”

Wu Yiyi asked Chen Xiaoru again: "That swordsman said no, what strength does the Ertianjun he know?" ”

The swordsman couldn't say it clearly, but he said that the Great Heavenly Monarch was respectful in front of the Second Heavenly Monarch and didn't dare to disobey the slightest. From this point of view, it can be inferred that the strength of the Second Heavenly Monarch is at least the peak of the Nine Ranks. If the realm is not much different, there is no need for the Great Heavenly Monarch to be so humble. According to the swordsman, the Great Heavenly Monarch was still the Second Heavenly Monarch five years ago, and he was defeated after being challenged by the current Second Heavenly Monarch. The Second Heavenly Monarch did not kill him, so he fell into the position of the Great Heavenly Monarch. ”

"The pinnacle of nine products......"

Wu Yi pondered for a while: "What about the Three Days Jun?" At least he is also a master of the Tongming Realm, the Four Heavenly Monarchs, the Five Heavenly Monarchs...... By the most powerful Nine Heavenly Monarchs, how high will the cultivation be? ”

"The Moon Shadow Hall is already so powerful, why hasn't it come out until now?"

Xiang Qingniu couldn't help but ask: "According to Hou Ye's analysis, then isn't that Nine Heavenly Monarch's cultivation higher than my senior brother Xiao Yijiu?" If so, such a powerful sect has already had the conditions to re-emerge, why wait until now? So, I didn't think it was really that powerful. ”

"Unfortunately, we still know too little."

Fang Xie shook his head, then looked at Xiang Qingniu: "Do you remember that jade pendant?" ”

Xiang Qingniu naturally remembered that when the Red Sleeve Building went south to Yongzhou, there were Tiger Fighting Tigers who accompanied the Red Sleeve Building to meet Fang Jie, and there was a young man who was illiterate but loved to wear scholarly robes. That young man used to have a jade pendant from the Moon Shadow Hall. However, it is said that the old man Wan gave it to him as a souvenir......

"If ......"

Xiang Qingniu was stunned: "Is that guy really from the Moon Shadow Hall?" ”

Fang Xie was also a little uneasy in his heart: "That means that the base camp of their Moon Shadow Hall may be in Chang'an City, and they have already infiltrated people into the Yanwu Academy." ”

"If he really is from the Moon Shadow Hall, he didn't do anything to you and me."

Xiang Qingniu thought about it carefully: "Then it doesn't make sense at all that the Moon Shadow Hall will re-emerge from the rivers and lakes to cooperate with Gao Kaitai in order to kill you." It's just used to deceive these low-level disciples, and the root of the Moon Shadow Hall's plot is a bigger level. ”

"Now let's deal with the military affairs in advance."

Wu Yi looked at Fang Xie and said, "Xiahou has already attacked the Qin River, but he has not defeated Zheng Ziyu, and then Zheng Ziyu will inevitably fight back wildly, and every battle will not be easy." Solve the matter of Zheng Ziyu first, and then talk about the Moon Shadow Hall. The day after tomorrow, the master of that small sect is about to arrive, he should know something about the Moon Shadow Hall, this sect also makes a living by being an assassin, I have some kindness to him, he shouldn't hide anything from me. ”

Fang Xie thought for a while and said, "I accepted the people of this sect and let them do things in the Black Flag Army later." If the news that he has seen Lord Hou is known to the people of the Moon Shadow Hall, I am afraid that this sect will also be destroyed. ”

Wu Yi nodded: "It's better to focus on military affairs." ”

Fang Xie looked at Chen Xiaoru: "Is that swordsman still alive?" ”

"Alive"

"Then continue the trial, take him with the army, say whatever you think, maybe a casual sentence can give us a lot of hints."

"Another ......"

Fang Xie said: "From today onwards, you have to be more vigilant, I killed the Great Heavenly Monarch, and I can't say that the Second Heavenly Monarch is coming." ”
