Chapter 181, step by step
(What do you think of the Emperor of the Apocalypse?) I wonder if I have written down the feelings I want to write? )
Leaving from the back door of the East Factory, Wei Zhongxian's sedan chair was in front, Xiao Yan's sedan chair was behind, the sedan chair curtain that Xiao Yan was sitting on was extremely heavy, and it was sticky, even the front sedan curtain was extremely thick, and there was no light exposed in the action at all, obviously not planning to let Xiao Yan know what was in the Forbidden City. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Xiao Yan didn't care about this, as long as he could leave this trial world, he would have the opportunity to enter this place in the future, and there was no need to see what was going on now.
Relatively speaking, he was more concerned about filling his staff with several skills.
If it is for those filthy creatures, of course, qigong is the best choice, but if you think about Wei Zhongxian's strength, you know that in the palace, such creatures are absolutely rare, and they can be regarded as non-existent.
Since then, the only people who can be called dangerous in Wei Zhongxian's mouth are people, and they are also people with a high level of fighting.
If it was like Wei Zhongxian, Xiao Yan didn't think he had much chance of winning, of course, if he suddenly made a secret raid, maybe there would still be a chance, but if he didn't carry out a secret raid, Xiao Yan also knew his strength very well, and basically had no chance.
However, in the entire palace, there are people who can have Wei Zhongxian's skills, even if they do, there will not be too many, and it is still a question whether the Hakka clan has the ability to instruct these people.
Xiao Yan thought about it again and again, and filled the staff with an armor-piercing poison, a nerve paralysis poison, a qigong, and a Greek fire, which were basically all his attack skills, and thought about it. Instead of adding qigong, he added another Greek fire.
Interrupting an opponent's reply has proven to be more effective in certain situations than dealing more damage at once.
After making this, Xiao Yan felt dizzy again, obviously the little rest time just now could not fully make up for the problems caused by Xiao Yan's overdraft. As new consumption appeared, Xiao Yan once again entered the stage of lack of energy.
In this way, I don't know how long I walked, Xiao Yan felt a sudden pause in the sedan chair in a half-dazed state, and after a while, Wei Zhongxian opened the sedan curtain and looked at Xiao Yan. said: "Immortal, we have arrived, and the saint has been waiting for the immortal for a long time. ”
Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, knowing that Wei Zhongxian's words mostly meant that the Hakka side had made all the preparations.
He shook his head slightly, clearing his mind a little. He said, "All right, then let's go." ”
Wei Zhongxian glanced left and right, and saw that Laikaon had already followed, nodded and said, "Please immortals." ”
Several people quickly walked along the corridor outside a hall, and after bypassing a row of courtyard walls, Xiao Yan vaguely saw it. In a palace not far away, the lights were brilliantly lit, and there were at least dozens of guards outside the door, all with serious expressions and extremely cautious expressions.
Wei Zhongxian motioned for a few people to stop, walked through the guards, walked to the hall gate, and said in a sharp voice: "Your Majesty, the immortals have been invited by me. ”
There was silence in the palace for a while, and a sharp voice sounded: "Your Majesty has invited the gods." ”
After speaking. The door opened, and a little eunuch came out to salute Wei Zhongxian, and the two exchanged glances, Wei Zhongxian bowed slightly, turned his head to Xiao Yan and said, "Immortal." It's a bit cold outside, Your Majesty invites you to come in and talk. ”
Xiao Yan smiled slightly, his spirit improved at this time, and after listening to Wei Zhongxian's words, he strode up, ignoring the murderous eyes of those guards, and said loudly: "If you are afraid of this cold, you will not come to this capital." ”
A few people walked in, there was no figure on the yellow silk couch in the main hall, but the side hall on the left was brightly lit, and there were occasional jingling sounds, but other than that, there was no other sound, which was completely different from the appearance of the Hakka crying there that Xiao Yan thought before.
Follow the little eunuch into the side hall, to the point that it seems to have come to a carpentry room, planing, chiseling, sawing and axes are complete, in the middle of the entire side hall, there is a thin and tall young man, the body is strong, but probably not walking outside for many years, the face looks a little pale, the eyes are slender, and it looks very energetic, but somehow, it is always a little old-fashioned. He didn't wear any silk and satin, they were all simple coarse cloth clothes, only those yellow edges quietly proved the identity of this young man.
Hearing Xiao Yan and them coming in, the young man looked up, smiled slightly, and said, "How about you come here to see this wooden ship I built?" ”
Wei Zhongxian hurriedly shook his head and said, "If you kill the old slave, the emperor's craftsmanship must be good, how dare the old slave comment on it without authorization?" ”
The corner of Xiao Yan's eyes jumped, it sounded like this Wei Zhongxian didn't seem to respect this emperor very much, thinking of this, he turned his head and glanced at the wooden boat on the carpentry platform, the wooden boat was about 2 feet long and 1 foot high, and the carving was extremely gorgeous, even a person like Xiao Yan who couldn't understand carpentry skills could feel that this boat had a lively feeling, as if it was placed in the water, and the boat could swim on its own.
When he got here, he raised his head and looked at the young emperor in front of him, just as Tianqi also looked at him, as if waiting for Xiao Yan to give an answer.
Xiao Yan whispered, "It's very good, like a living thing." ”
The emperor smiled slightly, casually slammed the wooden boat to the ground, and said, "I am very anxious, I always think that today's work is done today, and the same is true for this carpenter, if I don't finish this boat, it will be ruined." ”
After a pause, the emperor said: "Here in me, the immortals don't have to care about red tape, etiquette, etc., just be exempted, come here, please sit with the immortals." ”
Xiao Yan pretended to arch his hand, and sat on the brocade pier moved by a small eunuch, without waiting for him to speak, Wei Zhongxian, who was outside the threshold, had already spoken: "Your Majesty, the gods have been invited, and the old slave does not dare to disturb, so he is waiting outside the hall." ”
The Emperor of the Apocalypse said: "You can go yourself, this time is to make you hard, and I can't say a few words to the immortals." ”
Wei Zhongxian nodded, bowed his head, and walked out of the palace backwards.
The door of the hall closed slightly, and the whole room fell silent for a moment, except for the little eunuch standing outside the beaded curtain.
After waiting for a while, the emperor suddenly said, "I can't wait." ”
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to speak, and heard the emperor say again: "Time is not waiting for me!" ”
This sentence sounds indescribably melancholy. It's not at all like the emotions that the owner of the voice should have at this age.
Xiao Yan smiled and said, "The emperor is still very young, how can he not wait for me?" ”
"How long can the lonely live, how long can this Ming last, how much is still known. If Wei Zhongxian can live for a few more years, there may be a turning point, but this turning point is slim, and there is no difference between it and nothing, the more it is. Lone Yue wants to seize the day, but unfortunately, the carpenter wins day and night, and the world can't fight day and night. ”
Looking at Xiao Yan, the emperor said: "What the Ming Dynasty looks like, don't need others to say." I also know that it is just a broken ship, there is no other shore in front of me, and everyone on the ship only cares about disputes, even if I want to regroup, but I am alone, there are so many helpers there. Speaking of which, you have to rely on the people around you. ”
After a pause, the emperor continued: "When I was a young man, I didn't read any books, I didn't study the Four Books and the Five Classics, so some things are more transparent than others, the world is bustling, and all fame and fortune are even those scholars." What is the picture? It's not about fame and fortune yet. ”
Xiao Yan didn't speak, for this emperor, Xiao Yan is not familiar with this history. He is not very clear, except for knowing that there is a great eunuch Wei Zhongxian who has reached the peak in this era, and he has killed those Donglin Party people and withdrawn, he is not too impressed, but occasionally thinks, how can such a pencil eunuch, who is not a real eunuch leader, control a country so easily?
Without waiting for Xiao Yan's reaction, the emperor said: "Wei Zhongxian is also loyal to me, although he knows that he is doing nonsense outside, so what, it is better than those courtiers who are loyal to the monarch and serve the country secretly." ”
Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, this emperor really talks a lot, but he probably understands that it is nothing more than lifting one to fight the other and control the balance, but frankly speaking, what does this have to do with him?
Even if it wasn't because of the Hakka family, just because he was recruited into the palace because he was an immortal, what was Xiao Yan's identity? Immortal!
Will the gods care about the deceit of the mortals? Obviously not, how can someone who cares about worldly fame and fortune be a real immortal?
"Lone said this, but also to know that Lone can also distinguish between true and false, good and evil, Lone also knows what you are doing, whether it is good or bad for Lone, and knows that with you, Lone will only be safer, and this capital will be safer."
After a pause, the emperor continued: "It's just that the world is the world, and I also have favorites, do you know? ”
The corners of Xiao Yan's mouth curled slightly, and said, "If you want to say something, just say it, it's boring to talk here for a long time." ”
"My nurse is very thoughtful to Lonely, and because of this nurse when I was a child, I have lost a few killings, I can't say, there must be a time to return, today's events, I don't ask the antecedents, I don't ask the results, I only ask, can the gods still fight?"
Xiao Yan's eyebrows curled up and asked, "Who are you fighting against?" ”
"I have received a few palace maids recently, and there is a palace maid who is very good at fighting, and she also told me, let you fight with that palace maid, life and death have their own destiny, if you win, no matter what the past, write off, if you lose, you will use your life to compensate, what is the will of the gods?"
Xiao Yan frowned and asked rhetorically, "Just a palace maid?" ”
"Just a palace maid."
"When?"
"It's now."
"Where?"
"It's just outside the temple."
"What rules?"
"There are no rules."
When Xiao Yan heard this, he nodded and said, "It's okay, it's better to make a decision here, it's better than being secretly attacked every day." ”
"That's it, Lone comes to testify with you, if you win, there will naturally be no one in the capital who will oppose you."
Xiao Yan smiled, stood up, crossed the threshold, stood at the door of the side hall, and suddenly turned his head and asked, "Love to this extent?" ”
There was silence for a while behind the bead curtain, and the emperor replied: "The country loves people, and it cannot be weighed. ”
Xiao Yan nodded, and asked again: "Is there a reward?" ”
The emperor asked rhetorically: "If you love, do you want to reciprocate?" ”
Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, thought about it, nodded and said with a smile: "What you said is very true, what you said is very true." ”
