Chapter 258: Assassination (1st Update)
The power of this Nine Dragons is indeed miraculous, and the dragon breath that spits out makes the idol and the primordial spirit more solid and pure.
He didn't know what kind of power it was, but it was really useful to Genshin, and it was a completely different power.
This power has yet to be discovered.
However, it does not prevent him from starting to use it now, making the Yuan Shen strong and strong, if he continues to practice like this, will his Yuan Shen become the Sword of the Son of Heaven?
He couldn't help but think.
Early this morning, when he was doing penance, Yuan Ziyan entered the wooden house lightly and said softly: "Master, there is a blue-robed Taoist outside, who came with a holy decree. ”
"Did you come in?"
As soon as he heard it, he knew who it was, the last time he sent an edict to save Huo Tianfeng, it was this Taoist priest of Qin Tianjian.
At this time, there must be nothing good to come.
"He didn't come in. Yuan Ziyan said: "But I didn't leave, I stood outside the valley, as if I knew that there was a formation here, but I didn't know how to get in." ”
Li Chengkong groaned: "Your Highness can't sit still, right?"
"Your Highness asks your opinion if you want to accept this order. Yuan Zi flute.
"Pick it up. ”
"Yes. ”
She snapped in answer and drifted away.
After a while, Dugu Shuming slowly came to his wooden house, and suddenly the room was filled with a faint fragrance.
Li Chengkong sat cross-legged on the couch and opened his eyes.
Dugu Shuming took a low mound, sat down in front of the couch, and sighed.
Li Chengkong smiled.
Dugu Shuming said: "You should have guessed." ”
"Hmm. ”
"When are you leaving?"
"According to His Highness's wishes?"
"I really don't want to go, but I can't help it,...... Rather than this, long pain is better than short pain, let's go today. ”
"Your Highness, can you think about it?" Li Chengkong looked at her misty eyes and beautiful face, shook his head and said: "The next step is to reach the border, once you reach the border, you can't regret it." ”
“...... Let's go. Dugu Shuming said slowly.
Li Chengkong nodded: "Okay!"
——
The guards went out of the valley, and after half an hour they entered another valley, and after another half an hour they entered another valley.
These valleys are all formations, and this time they are much denser than the previous half-day formation.
They all thought that Li Chengkong was making a desperate effort, and the closer he got to the border, the more desperately he built a formation, just to avoid assassination.
Yuan Ziyan was curious.
The dead eunuch was obviously in retreat, and he didn't come out to build a formation at all, so how could the formation be built by himself?
What a hell!
Arriving at the valley ten miles away from the border, Li Chengkong stopped again, without any intention of continuing forward.
They saw the iron horsemen of Tiannan Pass coming and going, as fast as wind and fire, over and over again, and they were obviously looking for them.
Everyone was curious, why didn't they enter Tiannan Pass directly, why did they bother to find Tiannan Pass?
A day later, Dugu Shuming couldn't help but come over to inquire in person.
"There's no hurry. Li Chengkong sat on the couch, opened his eyes and said slowly.
He has always been immersed in cultivation, indulging in the refreshing of rapid progress, and the refreshing cultivation is far better than the world.
When he reached the Great Grandmaster, he couldn't kill at will, there were many constraints, and there was a lot of pressure, which was too unpleasant.
But cultivation doesn't have so much trouble, and the taste of leaps and bounds is better than any pleasure.
Dugu Shuming looked at him: "I'll go to Tiannan Pass soon, why don't you go in, but don't pass?"
"There's no hurry. Li Cheng said emptyly.
Dugu Shuming glanced at him fiercely.
Li Chengkong said: "This news has not been confirmed, so I didn't want to say it." ”
"What are you talking to me about all this nonsense!" Dugu Shuming said angrily: "Hurry up!"
Li Chengkong smiled: "Huo Tianfeng was assassinated. ”
"Hmm. Dugu Shuming shook his head: "Very seriously injured, are you dead?"
Huo Tianfeng's assassination is not a miracle.
He was in a different situation from the seventh brother Dugu Gale.
Although Dugu Gale is expected by everyone, he has no real stewardship and no real power, and his power is based on the ministers of the court who stand on his side, and influence the court by influencing these courtiers to show his power.
Huo Tianfeng is different, he is the real leader, and he is in charge of the military department of the Dayong Dynasty.
Although he is only a squire, he is no different from Shangshu, he is more powerful than Shangshu, and it can be said that he is under one person and above everyone.
Emperor Dayong is different from his father's Spring and Autumn Heyday, he is already in decline, and power is gradually transferred to Huo Tianfeng.
Although Huo Tianfeng only gained a little power, he was already very important, and his assassination was just an ordinary thing.
With Huo Tianfeng's status, it is not easy to assassinate him, let alone stab him to death.
"Dead. Li Cheng said emptyly.
"Impossible, right?" Dugu Shuming's eyes widened.
Li Chengkong nodded slowly: "The news I received is that Huo Tianfeng is dead, but ......"
"But what?"
"It's possible that it's a stand-in,...... So the situation is still unclear. ”
"Alas......" Dugu Shuming sighed, and the spirit that had just been lifted suddenly declined.
Li Chengkong said with a smile: "So I don't want to tell Your Highness this news, so as not to affect your mood with ups and downs." ”
Dugu Shuming snorted: "What can I influence, what does it matter to me whether he lives or dies!"
"That's right. Li Chengkong sighed: "Whether he is dead or alive, I'm afraid that Your Royal Highness the princess will marry you." ”
"Do you want to marry when you die?"
"Otherwise, how can the alliance between the two countries be maintained?" Li Chengkong said: "There must be at least one hostage." ”
Dugu Shuming nodded slightly.
"Wait, see the news over there. Li Cheng said emptyly.
Dugu Shuming got up and left.
This did affect her mood, it was better not to know, sitting on her couch, she kept thinking about Huo Tianfeng's life and death.
She actually wished that Huo Tianfeng would die, and hated Huo Tianfeng deeply, although the alliance between the two countries was decided by the emperors of the two countries, it was Huo Tianfeng who to choose.
She didn't sleep well all night, tossing and turning.
The next morning, before dawn, she went to find Li Chengkong.
Li Chengkong was moving his muscles and bones in front of the wooden house, even if he reached his level, his body still had to be well maintained.
He shook his head at Dugu Shuming, who was eagerly staring at him: "It's the stand-in who died." ”
Dugu Shuming's bright eyes were dim and disappointed.
Li Chengkong smiled: "Your Highness wants him to die, right?"
Dugu Shuming glanced at him and was too lazy to say.
She didn't believe that Li Chengkong didn't know her thoughts, of course she wanted Huo Tianfeng to die, and even if she got married, she didn't have to face a disgusting guy all day long.
Li Chengkong said: "Otherwise, I'll kill him?"
"Forget it. Dugu Shuming said busily.
Li Chengkong shook his head: "Da Yun, these guys couldn't find us, so they found Huo Tianfeng, but they were so ineffective, they only killed a stand-in, it's really a shame!"
He frowned.
Dugu Shuming said, "Do you think something is wrong?"
Li Chengkong nodded slowly: "It's really not right." ”
He knew the ability of the Divine Landing Peak, and if the master of the Divine Landing Peak made a move, he was afraid that he would not be mistaken.
Is it Huo Tianfeng's higher move?
Or is there something else going on?
He closed his eyes and remained motionless.
Dugu Shuming hurriedly waved his hand, and Yuan Ziyan, who was about to serve tea, stopped and stood in place abruptly.
Time passes slowly.
The air in front of the cabin seemed to be still.
