214 A man is not a man who is weak
Lian Ping moved forward, and Hao Zheng cautiously followed behind her. He had seen Lian Ling, the holy daughter of Biluo, and faintly felt in his heart that although this sister looked a little similar to Lian Ling, she was far from being as good as Lian Ling. It's a bit of a bad premonition that my life was in the hands of this person.
Lian Ping led him through the corridor behind the council hall and into a large empty room. The room was airtight, windowless, and made of old, blackened wooden planks. Oil lamps are lit on the wall, and a seal script is hung prominently, on which the word "visualization" is written. Other than that, the four walls are empty and empty.
On the floor against the wall, there were two master and slave futons, and there was nothing on the floor. Lian Ping sat down on the main seat, and then took out a shadow jade slip and threw it in the middle of the floor. Suddenly, the light on the jade slip shone brightly, showing a blood-red color. In the blood red, there is a black self-generated monument that shows a leaderboard.
At the top of the list is naturally Tang Su, and the others go down in turn. About a third of the names are at the end, and the color has turned gray. These rankings are still changing, and people are constantly graying out.
"Haozheng, your experience is quite simple. When there are only the first and second ranked Wu Yuan on this list, I will take you into the Zisheng Monument and participate in the final battle between these two Wu Yuan. Win or lose, after this battle, you can come out and resume your status as a prince. Until then, you have to stay here honestly and not leave a single step. ”
Although this delicate Haozheng said that he is not the prince now, once something happens to her, the consequences are really unimaginable. Although it is said that the emperor's holy decree says that the Jade Palace does not need to bear the responsibility for the casualties. But what the actual consequences will be, no one knows. Especially Haozheng's safety, she Danyang Pavilion is completely responsible. Even if Emperor Kun Yuan really didn't pursue it, the Ghost Xuanyin and their torture hall would inevitably use this as an excuse to force her to give up the position of Danyang Pavilion as the guardian.
Her idea is also simple. Haozheng stayed honestly in her visualization room in Danyang Pavilion and didn't go out for a single step. There are many prohibitions inside and outside Danyang Pavilion, which can be described as Jincheng soup pool. In addition, she is watching every step here, whether it is an outsider making a move or this kid is going to commit suicide, she will not give the other party the slightest chance.
As for the decisive battle in the self-born monument later, it is just a battle between the foundation building monks. With her Void Pill Perfect Female Crown to protect him, he can completely control the situation. If something really happens, I'm afraid that there will be some other conspiracy in the torture hall. However, the self-generated monument has already limited the ghost Xuanyin to the inaccessibility. She has a realm of consummation, and there are no opponents under the Purple Mansion, so she is not afraid of what tricks they will play.
The only thing that makes her uncomfortable now is that she has to be in the same room with this frail prince, a lonely man and a widow. I don't know if it's going to be three or five days, it's so embarrassing that the air is going to freeze.
Hao Zheng also sat down on the futon next to him, looking at the self-born monument in the shadow. Lian Ping put him aside and took care of his own breathing, and the two were silent for a long time, speechless for a long time.
Looking at the changes in the data on this self-born monument, it is not difficult for Hao Zheng to deduce that it will take at least more than ten days for the top two to be decided in the battle of the rankings of thousands of people. He immediately understood Lian Ping's plan. In order to ensure his safety absolutely, before entering the Zisheng Monument, the female crown planned to lock him in this closed room on all sides, and guard him every inch.
It's so easy and cute. But even he had to admit that stupid people have stupid methods, which really worked.
But it was boring enough to be locked up in this room for so long with such a boring woman.
Confucianism does not practice meditation, and Haozheng does not know how to breathe, so he can only be bored when he sits cross-legged. He glanced at the seemingly young Danyang Pavilion guard. She looked just like herself, but sixteen or seventeen. Although she was sitting cross-legged and closing her eyes, her brows were slightly frowned, and her lips were bitten, obviously she was a smart girl who couldn't sit still.
The age of a monk cannot be measured by mortals. Unless it comes to the time when the gods are declining and the longevity is about to end, they generally don't see the old state. Especially for the nuns, the age is even more top-secret. The Void Pill Female Crown will not enter the stage of decay until after ninety, and before that, it is no different from a girl.
Hao Zheng was a little disappointed. However, when the Holy Maiden of Biluo was in retreat, he was sent here to practice. If the Holy Maiden is in charge, he believes that he can be safe. But with this little sister, the situation is difficult to say.
"Dai Shou," Hao Zheng remembered something, and suddenly an inexplicable nervousness surged into his heart, "I don't know where my younger brother Haoqi is in your palace now?"
Sitting with this sick prince, he had to be vigilant from time to time, and Lian Ping didn't pay much attention to his luck. There are many romantic sons and brothers in these royal relatives, and even Ping has always been wary of this prince talking to him. Therefore, as soon as he heard him speak, he stopped pranayama and replied impatiently: "Brother Ling has this sect torture hall in charge of safety, and now he is in the Torture Tree Palace. ”
Haozheng asked for no reason: "May I ask the guard, can this self-generated monument enter at any time?"
"As long as the top spot has not been decided, it is natural that you can enter at any time. Lian Ping didn't know what he was asking for, just as he was just chatting with himself without anything to say.
She smiled coldly in her heart, wanting to tease me? You just find more topics, I just ask a promise, I see how long you can last.
"That said," Hao Zheng's face showed a hint of gloom, "My younger brother may also have entered the Monument of Self-Birth?"
"It can't be. I said he was in the Torture Tree Palace, then he was in the Torture Palace!"
Lian Ping was too lazy to continue answering. For her, she didn't dare to be interested in where Haoqi was, anyway, the torture hall was in charge, and it had nothing to do with her. But she did make an agreement with the ghost Xuanyin that she would only bring the two kings into the decisive battle in the self-born monument. Since it was agreed, she thought it would be so.
But Haozheng had such a warning in his heart, but he couldn't sit still anymore.
For so many years, he has lived in Jinyu City, far away from the imperial capital, which can be regarded as saving a lot of trouble. But this time, the old man of his family insisted on stripping him and this younger brother of their authority together and putting them in a sect for "training", which outsiders may not be able to see, but he knows it.
Originally, the Jade Palace was on his territory, and in the eyes of his father, he may have favored him, the second son who did not practice Xuangong. But he suddenly received the holy decree, and rushed over the next day, and the biggest dependence was the absence of the Holy Maiden Biluo.
He had no idea if his brother had already gotten the news and what arrangements he had made in the Jade Palace. So he's actually extremely passive.
Although the third prince Haoqi is high-flying and moody, he is scheming and will never fight an unprepared battle.
Hao Zheng secretly thought that if he guessed correctly, at this time, his younger brother was probably no longer in the Torture Palace, but had already infiltrated the Zisheng Monument with Gu Wentian. From now until the first or two places are decided, these three or five days are enough time for them to set a trap like a net in the self-born monument, and wait for him to step on it.
He was weak and had no interest in competing for the throne, but even if he said so, others would not believe him. In fact, this controversy is born and never ends. He must not sit idly by.
The most important thing at the moment is to let the innocent female crown next to her know that it is sinister, and make arrangements as soon as possible to avoid being passive after entering the self-born monument.
Judging from this woman's cold attitude towards herself, no matter how dangerous she says, she will only look cold on the surface, and laugh at herself in her heart, worrying about the sky, greedy for life and afraid of death.
But what kind of woman is, there is naturally how to deal with it.
Hao Zheng smiled slightly and said, "The disciple thinks that the cultivation of Lord Shou is profound, but his mind is indeed very simple. If you don't believe it, the disciple is willing to make a bet with the Daishou. ”
"Bet?" Lian Ping actually heard this person change his way and said that he was simple-minded, which hit her sore spot, and she couldn't help but feel on fire, and threw away all the vigilance of this boy, and said angrily, "What are you betting on?"
"The disciple gambled on the wrong side. Now my younger brother Haoqi must no longer be in the Torture Tree Palace!"
......
At this moment, Ghost Xuanyin was sitting in the elder's quiet room to recuperate. As for the achievements in the self-born monument, he didn't even look at it as if it had nothing to do with him.
In fact, this matter can also be said to have nothing to do with him. In order to ensure that the battle of the Zisheng Monument was really based on strength and was not interfered with by various forces from the outside world, Qin Zunyang not only set up a strong ban to prevent the entry of the Purple Mansion monks, but also cut off the information traffic inside and outside. Everything that happened in the Self-Born Tablet could not be transmitted even if it was used to transmit the Shadow Jade Slip. From the outside, you can't see anything but the ever-changing list, let alone the collusion between inside and outside.
He just had to wait here for the outcome of the battle between the two kings. As soon as the news of King Yun's death came, he would immediately convene a council of elders to force Lian Ping to step down from his position as a substitute and choose a reliable disciple to replace him.
He also thought about it repeatedly, even if this matter was not successful, there was nothing to be afraid of if he really wanted to pursue it. He had already cleaned up all the traces. Many of these people don't know what they're doing, so they shouldn't be able to explain anything.
At this time, a law enforcement disciple was reporting outside.
"Danyang Pavilion is here again, this time holding the sigil seal, and asking to see King Xia in person. ”
This is the second time that Lian Ping's side has sent someone to ask to see King Xia. It seems that this woman is not completely brainless, she probably vaguely guessed that King Xia and Gu Wentian had already entered the self-born monument in advance. But it's not about the big picture. Since Gu Wentian had done this, he had naturally been prepared for this situation.
The people from Danyang Pavilion were taken by his men to wait in the torture hall for a long time, and finally sent away directly on the grounds that King Xia was meditating and refused to see guests. Unexpectedly, Lian Ping was unrelenting, and this time even brought the talisman seal on behalf of him.
When the head of the sect is not there, the sigil is like the head of the sect in person, and this kind of request cannot be disobeyed even if he is an elder of the torture hall, otherwise it will be a betrayal of the master.
"I'm in retreat. Ghost Xuanyin replied coldly, "You don't have to tell me about this matter, just let the deputy elder handle it." ”
The law enforcement disciple was ordered to retreat, and Ghost Xuanyin waved his hand. The heavy stone door in the entrance of his quiet room immediately closed with a thud. As for the people from Danyang Pavilion, just let them and the deputy elder of the torture hall go to find them. Anyway, apart from him, no one outside knew the whereabouts of King Xia and Gu Wentian.
