Chapter 862 - Door-to-door debt collection
After Luo Feng read the contents of the letter, he threw it aside, ignored it, and had no tendency to move.
Tongtian Gushu asked puzzledly: "Aren't you going to save people?"
"Save people, she is neither my disciple, nor has she ever been kind to me, why should I save her?Is she very close to me?" Luo Feng asked rhetorically without thinking, "If it is just a matter of doing it, there is a strong man in this palace who is in charge of the refining period, and there is no shortage of powerful formations to protect him, and he forcibly breaks into other people's territory, do I think my life is too long?"
"Didn't you estimate that even the strongest Demon Emperor in the upper world had the ability to retreat, what was there to fear against a weakened Heavenly and Human Quadruple Cultivator in the upper region?
"The demon clan hasn't attacked yet, so I will fight in the nest first, and I will consume my strength internally, and give the enemy a chance to kill them all?" Luo Feng disagreed, "Moreover, I just have the power of self-preservation, not the invincible storage zĂ i, even if it is an opponent of the same level, if one side has the advantage of numbers and geography, it can ensure the odds of victory, there is no reason in this world that we are only allowed to use formations, and the enemy is not allowed to use them." If we can create conditions to defeat the strong with the weak, then others can do the same, and dare to be so arrogant on the territory of others, this is not self-confidence, but arrogance. â
"Looking at the contents of this letter, the situation seems to be very dangerous, if you don't help, what if that chick really dies?
Tongtian Gushu thought about it, although that chick had a very bad temper, she was beautiful, and it was a pity that she died like this.
But Luo Feng said in a cold tone: "If you die, find another one, the three-legged toad is not easy to find, and the two-legged people are all over the street, I booked her as the inheritor, just because it is convenient, since there is a suitable candidate around her, then you don't need to go out of your way to find someone else, but this does not mean that she is the only candidate, without Zhang Butcher, I am afraid that I will not be able to eat the pig with hair?" If you want me to take risks for her, that's wishful thinking, I'm not her guest or servant, and I'm not interested in interfering in the pickled matter of the royal family's struggle for power, so let them toss. â
Seeing that Luo Feng was really not interested, Tongtian Gushu didn't nag anything more, as usual, as if nothing had happened.
That night, the county lord of Mingxi and Yu Chan Zhenren returned to the palace, and there was no trace of anyone on their bodies.
At the first sight of the person, Luo Feng had a hundred thoughts in his mind, and he already understood the contradiction, so he took out the letter, handed it to the two of them, and described what happened in the morning.
Jade Toad Zhenren stroked his long white beard, shook his head and said, "Poor Dao has never written this letter. â
The county lord of Mingxi frowned at first, and then turned into a sneer: "It seems that this letter is either from the third uncle or the fifth uncle's handwriting, hmm...... The fifth uncle was born with a disease, and so far he has achieved nothing, and it is almost impossible to touch the throne, which must be done by the third uncle. If Mr. is bewildered by him, and he really dares to break into the palace, he will inevitably anger His Majesty, and then not only will Mr. himself be unable to protect himself, but I will also be angry. â
Jade Toad Zhenren was slightly puzzled: "This plan is not clever, from the perspective of common sense, even if the situation is critical, ordinary people will not force themselves into the palace." â
"That must be because they have found out the information and know that Mr. and his party are secluded cultivators in the world, not people in the world, so they may not care about the strict authority of the emperor, and there is really a possibility of acting recklessly in the case of not knowing the layout of the palace. Speaking of this, the chill in the eyes of the county lord of Mingxi was even stronger, "Along the way, Mr. rarely talks to outsiders, and the other party can find out the truth and truth, which can only mean one thing - there are spies around us!"
Luo Feng said: "There are two clever places in this plan. On the one hand, this is a plan without roots, and all that is needed is a blank piece of paper and a person who knows how to imitate handwriting, and if we succeed, it is certainly a great good, but if we fail, we cannot use this thing to prove the other party, but it is a profitable deal; I obviously saw this letter, but I ignored the request of the two of them and chose not to move, even if I intellectually understood that this was the most appropriate choice, didn't there be a pimple in the hearts of the two of them?"
The county lord of Mingxi was stunned when she heard this, her face was quite embarrassed, she did think of this, although she rationally understood that Luo Feng had not done anything wrong, and she had no obligation to save herself, but after seeing the distress letter, she was indifferent, ignoring her own safety, she couldn't help but feel displeased, and she was also the object she wanted to recruit and intentionally show her goodwill.
It's just that this love was pressed to the bottom of his heart by the county lord of Mingxi with reason, and it may not have an impact at the moment, but as long as the seeds are planted, it may explode one day in the future.
However, in terms of attacking the heart, Luo Feng himself is very good at it, and he is even more expert in the incarnation of Luo San and Tongtian Ancient Books, where will he see the trick.
Yu Toad Zhenren said roundly: "Now that it has been said, His Royal Highness also understands the last resort of Daoyou, and has pierced the other party's conspiracy, so naturally he will not be fooled." Taoist friends don't need to worry, the grace of saving lives is not something that others can get apart in a few words. â
Luo Feng had a different opinion: "The strategy of attacking the heart is the most difficult to prevent, even if you know the enemy's intentions, you can't avoid being affected." There are only two ways to deal with the attack, one is to have a deep friendship, mutual trust is enough to trust each other's lives, if it is seamless, the plan of discord will be useless; the other is to completely put aside feelings, only talk about interests, and maintain the relationship with each other with pure transactions, from the beginning there is no trust, and naturally there is no way to separate. â
The Lord of Mingxi was a wise man, and he knew that with the relationship between them for only a few days, the first method was impossible to talk about, and it was more appropriate to choose the second method.
At the same time, she also had a decisive will, and immediately asked: "If I promise here, if I can gain power in the future, I will spare no effort to promote what Mr. has learned and promote the Taoism of your sect, and Mr. may help me?"
Luo Feng responded: "Fair trade, Tong Su is not bullied, if you can leave no room for error, I will naturally do my best to help you reach a high position." â
The county lord of Mingxi nodded, and without hesitation, he took out a blood deed book, and after dripping the blood of his heart, he swore in front of Luo Feng, repeated the previous words, and promised: "If you violate this oath, the gods and men will be punished!"
Luo Feng took the blood deed and glanced at it, confirming that this thing did have the binding force to ensure the fulfillment of the oath, and if he wanted to ignore its mana constraints, he had to at least have the cultivation of the fourfold realm of heaven and man, and with the current level of the Mingxi County Lord, there were still many years of penance to reach that height.
He nodded and said with satisfaction: "In that case, I will also express my sincerity to you, can you tell me where the residence of the third prince is?"
Yu Chan Zhenren worried: "Daoyou asked what is this for? Don't act recklessly, didn't Daoyou also say that this letter is not enough to prove the murderer, and it is precisely because of this that the other party acts so unscrupulously. â
The county lord of Mingxi also agreed, he didn't think it was a good thing to collect debts now, rather than venting his temporary favor, it was better to keep it first, and then settle the general account when there was a chance in the future.
Seeing this, Luo Feng said: "Resourcefulness is the auxiliary of force, if force alone is enough to defeat the opponent, then there is no need for resourcefulness, just crush it head-on! The so-called evidence is a tool that we need to use when we need to use the force of morality or law to sanction the enemy, and if we can sanction the opponent with our own strength, then we don't need evidence." Because what the victor says, is the truth!"
With that, he got up and left the room.
When the county lord of Mingxi heard this, his eyes were full of brilliance, and he quite agreed with these words, with an expression of being empowered.
After Luo Feng left completely, Jade Toad Zhen asked, "Your Highness, do you really want to fight for that throne?"
"If I don't plan to compete for the throne, what will I do when I return to the royal capital?" The county lord of Mingxi did not hide his ambition at all, and said frankly, "If it is a peaceful and prosperous world, because of the bloodline of this demon clan, the throne will definitely not fall on me, I can only obediently be a county lord in the outer regions, and there is absolutely no hope of sitting on the throne." But the current situation is different, the demon clan is in trouble, the royal family is withering, and what is needed at this time is no longer the pursuit of orthodoxy and the king of the king, the kind of mediocre people who have cultivated themselves as general, may be able to sit on the throne in the peaceful era, but in the troubled times, they are the king of the country.
Today's Majesty is not a short-sighted person, and he must be able to see this, only the strong can suppress the situation in troubled times and continue the orthodoxy of the Tangchang Empire, and my demon bloodline will become insignificant in the face of this great righteousness. The most important thing is that today, except for His Majesty, only me and the third uncle can pull the Dao Shi Bow, which is my biggest advantage. In the peaceful world in the past, the branch of the Pun clan may still have a chance to ascend to the throne, but at the moment, there is no hope at all, and no one is willing to give up the strongest treasure. â
Jade Toad Zhenren nodded, and then asked: "Why did Your Highness agree to Luo Daoyou's request? Promise to help implement the Dao system he has learned, once this matter is reported, it will offend other cultivation sects, and it will inevitably be resisted." Although Luo Daoyou and his party are strong, they are only four people after all, and they are not as powerful as those cultivators. â
"If they want to boycott, let them boycott, and even if I don't agree, they won't be on my side. My biggest disadvantage is that I was not qualified to run for the throne before, so no one dared to put chips on me, and there was no support force. Although there are only four people in Mr. and his party, they all have unique skills and have the strength of those who are not inferior to those in the fit period, and there are very few who can win them steadily.
The troubled times are not as good as the peaceful world, the cultivation sect can take advantage of the situation to suppress people, the more disciples, the stronger the power base, but in the troubled times, the strong is the only guarantee, the number of disciples is meaningless, even if the territory affected by the power is extensive, it will lose its meaning after being invaded and annexed by the demon clan. Now I can't win the support of the powerhouses in the refining period, so Mr. and others are the biggest help I can get at the moment. â
......
"Who are you? This is the mansion of His Royal Highness the Third Prince, idle people are not allowed to approach!"
The two burly guards stared at Luo Feng who did not hide his aura and knew at a glance that he was not good.
"I'm just here to ask the owner of this mansion for something. â
Luo Feng didn't pay attention to the two juniors who didn't even have Jin Dan condensed at all, and released his own momentum, and the disparity in strength directly suppressed the hearts of the two, making them unable to move, and watched Luo Feng push open the door and walk in.
Tongtian Gushu asked, "Are you really going to do this? It is not a rational decision to offend a prince first without seeing the slightest benefit." â
"In addition to fulfilling my promise, on the other hand, I also want to warn this person, I don't care if he wants to play tricks and fight for the throne, but I really shouldn't calculate it on my head, this time I want to give him a small punishment and a big warning. Luo Feng turned his head to look in the direction of the palace, "Finally, I also want to prove my strength to the world through this action, so as to attract attention, you must know that in troubled times, the strong are the most respected." â
"The kid who beat someone else, aren't you afraid of provoking Lao Tzu's revenge?"
"Don't worry, because the emperor of the Tangchang Empire is a Ming Jun, since he is a Ming Jun, he knows how to focus on the overall situation, even if I give him a slap in the face, as long as I prove that I am a strong man worthy of wooing, and I am willing to fight against the demon clan, he will be able to tolerate my disrespect, at least until the demon clan is repulsed. â
While Luo Feng said confidently, he suddenly saw the light of the entire mansion flickering, covered by a goose egg-shaped light mask, and the surrounding environment was changing, already full of illusions, and the power of mountains and rivers was surging towards him.
"The formation, it's a pity but it's shallow. â
The royal capital is already guarded by a huge formation, even if a strong enemy attacks, it will be stopped by this large protective array, if the city gate is broken by a strong enemy, it will not be able to do much with a formation to protect the mansion, so the formation of the three princes' mansion will naturally not be clever.
With just one glance, Luo Feng saw the position of the formation eye, so he pointed out, and a sword qi pierced the void, just in the middle of the formation eye, with a bang, the illusion was annihilated, and the formation was broken.
The moment of returning to reality, two flying swords of Limangshing sparkled struck through the air, one thundered and flickered, the other was churning with fire, the two flew with each other, the sword qi was high, and after reaching within twenty zhang, the ground turned into eighteen swords, intertwined before and after, spinning non-stop, the sword light flickered left and right, divided and combined, virtual and real, and uncertain.
"A bold fanatic, he dares to break into the palace privately, and he will be arrested without restraint!"
Two Taoists appeared in the backyard of the palace, the young Taoist on the left was handsome and upright, dressed in a dark Taoist robe, with a sharp sword intent, obviously the owner of the imperial envoy's flying sword, and on the right hand side seemed to be an old man, but he was wrapped in a misty yellow smoke, and he couldn't distinguish his face.
"Finally, someone above Jin Dan has made a move, but it's still too far away!"
Luo Feng didn't look at it, a mysterious big hand rose from behind his back and grabbed towards the two swords, no matter how the two swords moved and shifted, they couldn't avoid this grasp.
The void in front of him seemed to collapse suddenly, the space contracted, and the two flying swords fell into the palms of Ruyi's Heavenly Interceptor as if they were actively thrown into their arms, and then they were wiped by it, and they cut off the connection with their masters.
The people of this world are accustomed to using magic weapons against the enemy, and they have never experienced the medieval era of Yuzhou, and they don't know those means of specifically restraining magic weapons, so they have never guarded against this, and they were taken away by Luo Feng lightly, which makes Luo Feng feel like he is using the progressive cultivation system to bully the ancients.
"You snatched my flying sword!"
The young Daoist couldn't sense his sword weapon, and couldn't help but change his complexion, and hurriedly sent out hundreds of thunder and fire sword qi and hurriedly killed Luo Feng.
"A sword cultivator without a flying sword is just a cripple. â
Luo Feng stepped forward unhurriedly, completely ignoring the attack, and blocked all these thunder fire sword qi with just his body protection qi.
"Don't panic, fellow Daoist, I'll retrieve the flying sword for you. â
The old man next to him took out an armillary umbrella, which seemed to have the ability to absorb mountains, rivers, rivers and seas, and put it on Luo Feng's head.
"I'm not interested in paying attention to you two minions, since I don't have self-knowledge, then let me lie down. â
Luo Feng urged the six reincarnation spells, and the move of Shura to destroy the realm was launched.
The rich vitality condensed into a surging force, but this time it was not a fist, but a giant palm, and the palm god body was full of a golden color, which was a pure and transparent golden yellow like vajra glass, compared to any colorful and beautiful scene in the mortal world, there was a feeling of flaw and fading.
Shura's palm pressed head-on, and the armillary umbrella was directly slapped away, and the two Taoist priests, one old and one young, suddenly felt an irresistible sense of oppression descending head-on, and the giant palm slapped down fiercely with a boundless domineering power that turned the tide and suppressed the universe. The whole world seems to have been suppressed at once, and the colors, lights, smells, sounds, etc. have lost their color, and they have lost their sense of existence, leaving only the glaze-like brilliance of the giant palm Vajra, which seems to be able to survive forever.
The two of them struggled to resist, using all their strength, and all kinds of magic weapons emerged one after another, but they couldn't even stop the giant palm from falling, and they were shocked out one after another. Their fierce counterattack is like a small demon facing the boundless Dharma and the mighty Divine Palm, showing a meaningless desperate struggle and stubborn resistance.
"Bang", the two of them were pressed to the ground by the giant palm, like a toad that had been run over by a wheel, unable to move, knowing that the posture was extremely ugly at the moment, and it was difficult to stand up, just because although the giant palm did not shatter the two of them, an immortal thought penetrated into the bodies of the two and severed the connection with many magic weapons.
"Okay, after playing with these little guys, it's time for the main owner to come out. â
Luo Feng lightly punched forward, surging the city and destroying the mountains with the strength of the fist, destroying the palace and houses in front of him, until he appeared in front of a man who was pale from fright, trembling in two trembling and gorgeous costumes.
