MTL - Peerless Ruthless Man, Cut Down the World-Chapter 305 The plan for the dead ends, Yang Yun's death

  Chapter 305 The plan of the dead ends, Yang Yun's death

  Jianwang Mountain is located in a large mountain range, surrounded by towering mountains, very steep, among which the cliffs overlook the clouds, very majestic.

   At this time,

Gu Qingcheng looked at a cliff in a daze, and said slowly: "Master Hou, don't be misled by the ordinary way of inheriting martial arts. The method of cave is a set of cultivation methods that are completely different from martial arts. Moreover, martial arts competitions Inheritance is too long, and in addition, the method of cave heaven is very different from martial arts, so the method of inheritance is very different."

While talking, Gu Qingcheng opened Wei Wuya's handbook again, and continued: "Because the method of cave heaven is very precious and special, generally speaking, only a limited number of people know it, but Wei Wuya definitely knows it. In this notebook, there are some scattered records of his experience of understanding the method of the cave, and this stone wall is very consistent with the records in it."

  Gu Zhan frowned slightly, he was a little surprised when he looked at the cliff about thirty feet high.

   Still misled by inertial thinking,

  If it weren't for the ancient Qingcheng who accompanied him today, it would be impossible for him to associate a practice inheritance method with a cliff.

Gu Qingcheng looked at the cliff for a long time, then slowly knelt down and read Wei Wuya's handbook, and said while reading: "Master Hou, there are usually restrictions on the inheritance of the method of cave, and you must fix it to open it. If the solution is wrong, the restriction may be triggered and the inheritance will be destroyed."

  Gu Zhan nodded and said, "Then please trouble Miss Gu Qi."

  Gu Qingcheng smiled slightly, then carefully read the handbook.

  The study of Gu Qingcheng took a long time,

  From noon to afternoon, when the sun was almost setting, she got up and shouted: "Master Hou, I found it!"

  Gu Zhan was leaning against a rock and taking a nap when he suddenly woke up and walked over.

   I saw Gu Qingcheng drew a pattern on the ground with branches, which was very ingenious and full of a different charm.

Gu Qingcheng explained: "According to the scattered information recorded in Wei Wuya's handbook, the way to unlock this restriction is to mobilize the aura to condense the runes, and according to a specific size, pull them to the cliff, and they will touch The restriction on the cliff is like a key unlocking a lock, unlocking the restriction."

   Gu Zhan looked at Gu Qingcheng, and felt a little emotional. It is not unreasonable for Gu Qingcheng to be able to take charge of the Gu family as a daughter, and indeed has abilities different from ordinary people.

  Wei Wuya's handbook has also been roughly read. Most of the records are based on conjectures aimed at replacing aura with magic energy, and there are only scattered words about the inheritance of the cave in the middle.

  From these few words, Gu Qingcheng was able to deduce the location of the Dongtian inheritance in such a short period of time, and the forbidden runes are indeed amazing.

   "Miss Gu Qi, you are indeed a strange woman in the world, I admire you!" Gu Zhan exclaimed.

   "Master Hou is overrated, it's just a trick."

While talking, Gu Qingcheng put away the letter and said: "Master Hou, you have to come to mobilize the spiritual energy to open the restriction. Although Qingcheng can also mobilize it, but it is not so accurate unless it has been practiced a thousand or eight hundred times. "

Gu Zhan looked at the rune pattern on the ground, it was indeed very delicate, and it required a high level of energy control, even for a top master, it was difficult to be so precise in mobilizing the vitality of the world, let alone mobilizing the aura that he had never touched before. .

   Immediately,

   Gu Zhan pinched a hand formula, and the divine power flowed out of his body, pulling the aura in the gathering spirit array to turbulence.

Soon, the spiritual energy in the spirit-gathering array began to circulate at a speed visible to the naked eye. Like a whirlpool, wisps of spiritual energy were pulled out from the middle, spreading towards the cliff, and quickly intertwined in the air. runes.

   "Om..."

  A dull sound suddenly came out in the air.

  The aura rune quickly expanded and printed on the cliff.

   At that moment,

   Luminous veins appeared on the cliff, and quickly began to expand. There were dazzling brilliance rushing up, flowing with endless divine brilliance, and the gorgeous and dazzling Gu Zhan could hardly open his eyes.

The brilliance was fleeting, and Gu Zhan suddenly felt that he was in a strange space. There were figures, like fonts, densely packed, so small that it was almost impossible to see, flying in front of his eyes. Every ancient character Like a star shining, the brilliance is bright.

   At that moment,

  Gu Zhan realized that this is the difference between the inheritance method of the Dongtian method and the martial arts.

  The inheritance of martial arts is recorded in books, relying on scholars to study,

  The cultivation system of the method of cave-to-heaven relies on comprehension.

   While Gu Zhan was guessing, a system notification sounded in his mind:

  【Detected deducible skills＊1】

  【Demonstrable spell detected＊1】

  【Demonstrable spell detected＊1】

  【Demonstrable spell detected＊1】

  …

   Immediately, Gu Zhan opened the system page to check,

  The system contains a total of one exercise and three spells.

   And according to the ability of the title of martial arts pioneer, he can deduce the martial arts skills of the same realm.

Immediately, Gu Zhan checked the recorded exercises. It was a three-star exercise named Baopu Jing. Far from it.

  Da Huang Ting can cultivate to the fifth realm of seeing the gods, while Baopu Jing can only be cultivated to the third realm of seeing the gods after being deduced into martial arts, and the deduction requires one billion experience points.

   This is meaningless to Gu Zhan.

   Then he looked at the other three spells.

  One is called blindness, one is called fire breathing, and the other is called armor congealing.

  When seeing these three spells,

  Combining Gu Qingcheng's previous words, Gu Zhan has basically determined that this world should be a world of self-cultivation before martial arts.

  The so-called Mahayana supernatural powers are the spells used by some cultivators. Because the spells are so strange, so many are called Mahayana supernatural powers, but they are actually not practical.

The ancient family's out-of-nothing dead tree blossoms belong to the kind of spells that are useful to ordinary people but completely meaningless to experts, and the blindfold and fire-breathing techniques here in Sword King City are the same, and they can only deal with ordinary people, real masters is of no use.

   This also led to Gu Zhan not even interested in deduction of these two spells,

  However, he checked it out:

  Spell: Blindfolded

  Grade: elementary spell

  Transformable Martial Skill Grade: Mysterious Grade Top Grade

  …

  Spell: Spitfire

   Grade: Intermediate Spell

  Transformable Martial Skill Grade: Earth-level Middle Grade

  …

  Spell: Armor

  Grade: Elementary Treasure Art

  Transformable martial arts: Mahayana supernatural powers

  …

   Sure enough, as he expected,

  Blind-eye deduction becomes martial arts and martial arts, which can only be transformed into mysterious martial arts at the same level, while fire-breathing is a little better and can reach earth-level.

  The martial arts of the mysterious level and the lower level are completely worthless for Gu Zhan today.

  However, the last armor congealing technique surprised Gu Zhan.

  Gu really had great expectations for this spell.

When fighting Wei Wuya before, Wei Wuya used this spell to condense a pair of armor with devilish energy, which is very tyrannical. If it weren't for the fact that Gu Zhan's cultivation level was far superior to his, it would have brought a lot of damage. Trouble, even, because Wei Wuya is obviously just getting started at most, if he is a master, then it will be interesting to fight!

   Now, the level of this spell and the martial skills that can be transformed have not disappointed Gu Zhan, and he actually deduced a Mahayana magical method that does not exist at all.

  According to the prompt of the system,

   Gu Zhan probably guessed the grade of the cultivation spell.

   It should be divided into non-influential, junior middle school and senior third-level,

  It just corresponds to the yellow rank, black rank, earth rank martial arts and Hinayana supernatural powers of martial arts.

   And above the high-level spells, it should be the treasure technique, and the treasure technique, with a high probability, is divided into junior high school and high level three.

   While before,

  Old Celestial Master once said that the only way to kill land gods in the cave is Mahayana supernatural powers, which should refer to precious arts.

  Just because people in this world don't know that spells have grades, and because the essence of spells and treasures is to rely on aura, they are confused, and all spells and treasures are defined as Mahayana supernatural powers.

  【Use 500 million experience points】

  【Baoshu is successfully deduced into martial arts martial arts】

  Elephant Armor Skill: It is divided into nine layers, and each layer can obtain the power of an elephant. The armor of an elephant has infinite power.

  …

  Looking at the commentary on the Xiangjia Gong,

  Gu Zhan had a smile on his face, a little happy.

  The true Mahayana supernatural powers,

  And it is different from the Hinayana supernatural power, which relies on the general trend of heaven and earth, which belongs to borrowing force, but now this Mahayana supernatural power is different, it is completely based on one's own blood and supernatural power.

Just at this time,

  Gu Zhan suddenly felt in a trance,

  He became conscious,

  The surrounding environment has changed, there is no endless void surrounded by stars in the dark night.

  He was still standing in front of the hut on the mountain behind Sword King City.

  Gu Qingcheng was watching at the side, saw Gu Zhan opened his eyes, and hurriedly said: "Master Hou, how are you doing, do you have the method to realize the cave?"

  Gu Zhan looked around, the sky had basically darkened, and asked, "How long has it been?"

"It's been almost two hours." Gu Qingcheng said: "It's the first time you comprehend the method of the cave, and it's terrifying to be able to spend two hours. According to my ancestors, the average person spends about a stick of incense for the first time, and then Constant comprehension, some need months, some need many years to comprehend a complete method of the cave."

   Gu Zhan chuckled lightly and said, "I've already realized the completeness, let's go, let's go down the mountain."

  Gu Qingcheng was stunned for a moment, cupped his hands, and exclaimed: "Master Hou, it really can be compared with extraordinary people!"

  Gu Zhan smiled slightly, didn't say much, but went down the mountain.

   "By the way, Lord Hou," Gu Qingcheng said, "What about the Spirit Gathering Formation in Sword King City?"

   "Keep it," Gu Zhan said, "Maybe it will be useful in the future."

  Gu Qingcheng nodded, handed Wei Wuya's letter to Gu Zhan, and said, "Master Hou, please keep this letter. If it spreads to the rivers and lakes, it will definitely be a bloodbath."

Gu Zhan looked at the handbook and said, "With me, I see Shenwu Dao, this stuff...it's tasteless to eat, and it's a pity to throw it away. Moreover, Wei Wuya's set is too difficult to copy, and the requirements for all aspects are too high. .”

  Gu Zhan put the letter in his arms, and walked slowly. While walking, he summoned the system:

  【Use 100 million experience points】

  【Elephant armor upgrade to entry level】

  【Use 300 million experience points】

  【Elephant armor skills upgraded to Xiaocheng level】

  【Use 500 million experience points】

  【Elephant Armor skill upgraded to Dacheng level】

  …

  Between one step,

  Gu Zhan uses 900 million experience points,

  Directly upgrade the Mahayana supernatural power, the elephant armour, to the Dacheng state, gain the power of the nine celestial elephant, the armour of the nine celestial elephant, and the energy and blood of the whole body surge to the extreme,

   At that moment,

  Gu Zhan felt that the energy and blood in his body seemed to be surging and roaring like a sea, mighty and mighty, with endless power!

   Gu Zhan let out a breath of foul air and looked at the system page:

  Player: Gu Zhan

  Note: 1. Wearing the title of Martial Arts Pioneer will gain the ability to deduce. You only need to use experience points to deduce skills in the same realm.

  …

  The afterglow of the setting sun can’t reach the mountain behind Jianwang Mountain, there can only be some faint light on the other side of the mountain, and the ray of light can only be seen through the mountains and valleys.

  Gu Zhan lifted Gu Qingcheng's shoulders, stepped on his feet, rose against the wind, and flew to the top of the mountain,

   There is half a round sun like blood,

  Gu Zhan landed on the top of the mountain, and slowly stretched out his hand, as if the sun was within reach. Looking down, the mighty clouds and mist flowed on the mountainside.

   "This is the highest place in Yunzhou, right?" Gu Zhan said slowly.

  Gu Qingcheng stood behind, tilting his head slightly, a look of doubt appeared on his pretty face, then slowly raised his head, seeing the back, it seemed as if he had touched the sky.

   "Sword King City is indeed the tallest in Yunyun Prefecture, and now it is under your feet, Lord Hou!" Gu Qingcheng bowed and said.

  The cold wind hit, blowing Gu Zhan's robe fluttering,

  The setting sun shone on him. At this time, the half-round setting sun on the western mountain was just like the morning sun when it first rises, shrouded in faint light.

   In a trance,

   Gu Zhan seemed to see the fifth year of Qingli,

  On that day, the sun set in the west, leaving the afterglow to shine on the world.

  Outside Linjiang City, he rode his horse and galloped wildly. On the saddle, there were two horizontal knives on the right side, and a cold iron bow and a quiver on the left side. There were more than a dozen feathered arrows in the quiver.

  He was carrying a package on his back. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, the shadows of a man and a horse stretched very long, and he headed west.

  When I looked up, I also saw the sunset that was gradually sinking to the west,

  Horseshoes burst forth, just like a boy traveling with a knife.

  …

  The setting sun was crimson, and the shadow of Gu Zhan was still stretched very long. He slowly took off the horizontal knife on his back,

"In the fifth year of Qingli, I left a knife on the head of Linjiang City; in the sixth year of Qingli, I left a knife on Lingxi Mountain in Pingyang Prefecture; I got a knife, today..."

  Gu Zhan drew the knife out of its sheath, flicked the knife lightly with his fingers, and a crisp "buzz" sound echoed in the air, and the horizontal knife penetrated into the boulder on the ground, embedded two feet.

  The horizontal knife is cold, shining coldly against the setting sun.

  Gu Zhan turned his head slightly, looked at Gu Qingcheng, and asked: "Miss Gu Qi, tell me, where will Ben Hou leave the next knife?"

  Gu Qingcheng remained calm, pondered for a while, and said: "Then, it is naturally a place higher than Sword King City!"

  …

  …

In the land of Yunxi, during this period of time there has been a wave of ups and downs, and one after another of major incidents has attracted the attention of the whole world. However, because of the rebellion in the three prefectures of Yun, Qing and Liang, it makes Yunxi's side seem unsatisfactory. Not so grandiose.

  However, rivers and lakes are different after all,

  Gu Zhan broke the limit of martial arts, created the method of seeing the gods in martial arts, beheaded Lao Tianshi and Wei Wuya, and finally became the center of the world, even the rivers and lakes of the Southern Jin and Northern Wei Dynasty were in turmoil.

The three prefectures of Yun, Qing and Liang rebelled, and the turmoil was at the root of the country of Xia. However, whether it was Gu Zhan’s method of seeing the gods or Wei Wuya’s new method of dongtian, both of them could rewrite the inheritance of the era of cultivation. No one from those dongtian-level forces could don't care.

  However, because of the rebellion of the three states, and Yunxi is in the center, Yunxi is still in internal turmoil. However, anyone with a little knowledge can feel that Yunxi will become the center of the whirlpool sooner or later.

   To be precise, it is Gu Zhan,

  Now there are two methods in the world that can change the rules for thousands of years are in his hands.

  Ordinary people may not feel the importance of those two methods, but those Dongtian-level forces standing at the pinnacle of the world can feel the oppression. The switch of a new era is in the hands of Gu Zhan.

  Even if it is a cave-level force, if it is not careful, it is very likely to be wiped out in this torrent.

In this situation,

   Not only the Xia Kingdom itself, but also the Southern Jin Dynasty, Northern Wei Dynasty and some small countries are secretly coming towards Yunxi.

   At this time,

  Gu Zhan, the protagonist who is likely to cause turmoil in the world, did not feel any pressure at all. After he left Sword King City, he went to Shiwan Dashan to find the Dongtian inheritance of Moon Worship Sect.

   However, he was very disappointed.

  The method of Dongtian is not as good as that of Sword King City. As for the treasure technique, there is no such thing, but there are several spells, which are meaningless to him.

  After leaving Shiwan Dashan, he began to recruit troops from all over Yunxi and recruit troops everywhere.

At this stage, the Beidou Gang crazily collected all parts of Yunxi and rebuilt Yunxi. However, compared with the previous Yunxi, today's Yunxi is very different. The name is to suppress Yunxi, recruit troops, and rebuild the government.

  In addition, after leaving Sword King City, Gu Qingcheng rushed to the ancestral land of the ancient family without stopping.

  She knew that Yunxi during this period would be the last period of peace, and it would soon become the center of a storm, and this storm was due to Gu Zhan. If Gu Zhan survived, the sea and the sky would be brighter.

  She has great confidence in Gu Zhan.

   So, she was in a hurry,

If the Gu family misses this period of time, Gu Zhan will not necessarily lack another Gu family in the future. The sooner he makes a move, the greater the share he will occupy with Gu Zhan, and Gu Zhan cleaned Yunxi once. occasion.

   It is indeed as Gu Qingcheng thought,

   Now that Gu Zhan has gathered the resources of various forces in Yunxi, there is indeed no shortage of money and food in a short period of time, but the most lacking is manpower.

  Because Gu Zhan's rise is too fast, and the expansion of the territory is also at an unimaginable speed. He has no time to cultivate his background and team, which leads to the fact that he has not many capable people under his command, and it seems that it is stretched to govern the entire land of Yunxi.

  The Gu family appeared very timely at this time.

  When those people from the Gu family came to Yunxi one after another,

  Rong Yichu and Nangong Weiyang breathed a sigh of relief.

  Governing the local area is different from managing Jianghu sects.

  Gu Zhan's subordinates, most of them are from the rivers and lakes, and they don't know anything about governing the local area or managing the army as officials.

  So, during this time,

In terms of government affairs, Rong Yichu has too many burdens, and in terms of the army, Nangong Weiyang is too busy to touch the ground, but Yunxi has always been a place with a strong atmosphere of the world, and most of the recruits are from the world, not suitable for military affairs. .

  However, with the arrival of people from the ancient family,

  The land of Yunxi finally returned to normal order in a short period of time.

  …

  Canglan City, Yunhou Mansion.

  The early morning fog was slowly dispelled under the rising sun.

  Rong Yichu went all the way unimpeded, and went straight to the outside of Gu Zhan's courtyard.

  Yunhou Mansion was the city lord's mansion of Canglan City in the past, and the current Yunhou Mansion is naturally not comparable to the original city lord's mansion.

However, Rong Yichu can travel freely in the city lord's mansion, which is also authorized by Gu Zhan, and there is no one in Yunhou's mansion who does not know Rong Yichu, who holds several official positions, and is under one person in Yunxi and above ten thousand. .

   Came outside the compound where Gu Zhan lived,

  Rong Yichu stopped, and did not rashly rush in. Although Gu Zhan said that he could pass at will, Rong Yichu knew what is proper.

   Just when Rong Yichu was about to pass on the guard,

A woman with a beautiful appearance and a graceful figure stepped out of the courtyard. She was the former saintess Kou Baimen of the Moon Worship Sect. The control is in hand, so the Wulin League was rebuilt, with Kou Baimen as the leader.

   "Leader Kou!" Rong Yichu shouted.

  Kou Baimen tilted his head, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Rong, are you here to see Lord Hou?"

   "Yes," Rong Yichu said: "There are some official duties that need to be reported. I thought I came down early enough, but I didn't expect the leader Kou to come earlier."

  Kou Baimen smiled and said: "Then no matter how early you are, you can't be earlier than me. I came last night!"

  Rong Yichu: "Leader Kou worked hard..."

   "Master Hou is the one who worked hard," Kou Baimen chuckled, and said, "You came just in time, Master Hou asked me to find you."

  Rong Yichu asked in confusion: "What's the matter?"

Kou Baimen put away the smile on his face, became very serious, and said: "Recently, I found a lot of people from the White Lotus Sect sneaking in from the northern border on the Shiwanda Mountain. Lord Hou suspects that the battle situation in Yunzhou has changed. The teacher may want to hide in the Hundred Thousand Mountains."

  Rong Yichu said: "I came to find Lord Hou today because of this matter, but I have a little more information than you, and it is more accurate."

"what news?"

  Suddenly, at this moment, Gu Zhan's voice came from the compound, and a figure slowly appeared.

  Rong Yichu and Kou Baimen hurriedly performed the ceremony.

Rong Yichu reported: "Master Hou, I secretly bought a few sons of the Qin Tianjian before. I just got the news that the White Lotus Sect is in conflict, the Marquis of Chengyang's rebellion failed, and the Ling family and the Dugu Clan's army in Qingzhou and Liangzhou are all on the scene." Mutiny at the same time, being flanked by both inside and outside the court, the defeat is set!"

  When Kou Baimen heard Rong Yichu's words, he cupped his hands towards Gu Zhan and said, "Master Hou, since you have important matters to discuss with Mr. Rong, then this subordinate will leave first!"

   "No need," Gu Zhan waved his hand, and said, "Come and listen to me too. Now that you are in charge of the Wulin League, the entire situation in Yunxi is in your hands. You also need to know these things."

  Kou Baimen was stunned for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "Yes."

  Gu Zhan nodded slightly, patted Rong Yichu's shoulder, and said, "Let's go in and talk."

   Soon, the three came to a living room and sat down one by one.

  Gu Zhan picked up a cup of tea, took a sip, and said, "Did you just say that there was internal strife in the White Lotus Sect?"

"Yes."

Rong Yichu cupped his hands, sighed, and said: "Actually, it can't be said that it was an internal strife. To be precise, it was Yang Yunzhi's last move. Before that, I had been guessing what kind of support Yang Yunzhi had to lure the Marquis of Chengyang to rebel. The Dugu Clan and the Ling family will end, this plan is really bold and crazy.

Cooperating with the Dugu Clan and the Ling family of the White Lotus Sect, they were able to gather nearly a million troops in a very short period of time. If they were not careful, they could really hit the capital directly. Therefore, I have been thinking, Yang Yunzhi's successor What is the hand that allows him to have so much confidence.

  I thought about Yang Yunzhi's deployment for so many years, he must have placed a lot of people in the three states of Yunliangqing and Qingzhou, and he would mutiny as soon as the time came, but I didn't expect that the goddess of the White Lotus Sect would be Yang Yunzhi's backer. "

  Gu Zhan frowned slightly, and asked in surprise, "White Lotus Sect Heavenly Maiden?"

Rong Yichu nodded, and said: "Since the Marquis of Chengyang yelled the slogan on the side of the Qing emperor, the White Lotus Sect army has spread from Yunzhou to Qingzhou and Liangzhou, and cooperated with the Ling family and the Dugu clan to control the army. At the same time, it is also the Ling family and the Dugu clan In order to disperse the strength of the White Lotus Sect, it can be easily controlled.

   During this period of time, the Chengyang Army and the Bailian Army cooperated very well. They completely controlled the three states with lightning speed, and the imperial army was blocked outside the three states.

  When the Marquis of Chengyang saw that the situation was very good, he summoned a large army to prepare to attack Fengtian. As long as Fengtian was defeated, he could pour all the strength of the three states and go straight to Kyoto.

Marquis Chengyang was also on guard. He had always been wary of an inner ghost arranged by the imperial court in the three states. However, he never thought that this inner ghost would be the goddess of the White Lotus Sect, or even the White Lotus Sect itself. Did not notice.

Just when the Marquis of Chengyang was gathering an army to attack Fengtian, the goddess of the White Lotus Sect suddenly launched an attack on the high-level officials of the White Lotus Sect, and then controlled the White Lotus Sect to attack the Chengyang Army from all over the three states. An Zi, who Li Jing had been waiting for for many years, was also dispatched.

  Everyone’s speculation was wrong. These secrets were all insignificant mid-level and lower-level military officers, while Chengyang Hou Linghao had been focusing on investigating high-level military officers before. "

  Gu Zhan nodded slightly, and said: "This is understandable. After all, it is impossible for those officers in the middle and lower ranks to be able to affect this kind of battle situation."

Rong Yichu nodded and said: "That's true. After all, these people are scattered like sand and can't do much, but the Bailian Sect Heavenly Maiden, who no one can think of, will be an inner ghost. With her status, those who seem to be The shadows in the loose sand condensed in an instant.

  The Marquis of Chengyang was caught off guard, and the imperial army that had been prepared for a long time also launched a charge at this time, cooperating inside and outside, and just when the Chengyang army was in a state of chaos, they directly defeated the Chengyang army.

  Chengyanghou, the defeat is set, and the recovery of Yunliangqing and Qingzhou is just around the corner! "

  Gu Zhan frowned, looked at Kou Baimen, and said: "So, the leader Kou said that the people who discovered the White Lotus Sect in Shiwanda Mountain were the other part of the White Lotus Sect who were looking for a way to escape?"

Rong Yichu said: "The celestial daughter of the White Lotus Sect, whose identity has been exposed now, must be someone from the imperial court, and will definitely return to the imperial court with her lineage, but the other group of real rebels from the White Lotus Sect Pai dared not and could not take refuge in the imperial court. They could only fight to the death or flee.

   To escape, the Shiwan Dashan is the most suitable place. There are high mountains, canyons, ravines and various natural moats inside, and there are miasma and fierce beasts, so it is difficult for the imperial army to enter. "

   Gu Zhan chuckled and looked at Kou Baimen.

  Kou Baimen hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, among the Hundred Thousand Mountains, there is absolutely no one who is more familiar with the Demonic Dao... Wulin League. If the White Lotus Sect enters the Hundred Thousand Mountains, every move will be clearly investigated."

  Gu Zhan slowly looked outside the door,

  The dense fog in the morning has been pierced by the bright red sun, with withered and yellow leaves flying around,

  It’s almost winter,

In the living room, there was silence for a while, and after a while, Gu Zhan asked: "You said, Yang Yunzhi spent decades doing this, is it really worth it? The 300,000 soldiers in Longguan, the years of war, and General, Liu Hou, Wan Yan, etc., does he really think he can save the building from falling?"

  Rong Yichu and Kou Baimen looked at each other,

   Both of them were silent, not knowing how to answer.

  …

  Yunzhou, Linjiang City.

  The long streets are depressed, the houses and alleys are dilapidated, the old trees are rotten, and the mottled city walls are late. The whole city is in this decadent atmosphere.

  An army rushed into the government office,

  At this time, the government office is empty,

There is only one dead tree, an old man with white hair is leaning against the dead tree and reading a book. Skinny, trembling unconsciously while holding the book.

   This person is the prefect of Linjiang, Yang Yunzhi.

  An army rushed in, and the sound of fighting in unison echoed in the dilapidated courtyard, surrounding Yang Yunzhi.

  A middle-aged man in armor strode in. Wherever he passed, the dead leaves on the ground flew to both sides. He was Chengyang Hou Linghao.

   "Yang Yunzhi."

  Ling Hao walked up to Yang Yunzhi, looked down at Yang Yunzhi, and said slowly: "You are so old!"

  Yang Yunzhi raised his head, his face was full of wrinkles, showing a smile, and said: "Marquis Chengyang, you are here, sit... sit down!"

  Yang Yunzhi's skinny hands were always trembling unconsciously. He pointed to a small stone pier next to him and invited Ling Hao to sit down.

Ling Hao waved his hand lightly, scattered all the dead leaves on the stone pier, sat down slowly, and said: "The Yang Yunzhi in my impression is so high-spirited and peerless, so even if I know this defeat I thought it was an honor to be defeated by you, but you are in such a state right now, Yang Yunzhi, you let me down!"

  Yang Yunzhi slowly closed the book in his hand, sat up straight with his support, and said with a light smile: "You are not disappointed, you are just unwilling to lose to such a dying person."

Ling Hao sighed, and said: "I'm really not reconciled, Yang Yunzhi, you have spent these decades, your wife and children, your beloved relatives and friends, as well as the 300,000 soldiers in Longguan, the years of war in Yunzhou, and the displacement of countless people In exchange for my defeat, is this...really a good deal? Do you really think that the root of the corruption in the Xia Kingdom is entirely my Ling family and the Dugu Clan?"

Yang Yunzhi shook his head slightly, patted the dead tree he was sitting on, and said: "Xia Guo, just like this old tree, it is too old, and its withering is not only due to its branches, but , the entire tree trunk has rotted!"

  Ling Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not speak.

Yang Yunzhi continued: "If I want to save this tree, I have to cut off all its trunks and let it germinate and sprout again. However, the Ling family and the Dugu clan are like those two branches. If you want to cut off the tree trunks, they will definitely die, they will not agree, so I have to cut them down first!"

  Yang Yunzhi sighed, and said: "To be honest, my death plan is stupid, not clever at all, it's an extremely stupid way of hurting the enemy eight hundred and self-defeating one thousand.

But, there is no other way, Xiaguo is really old enough that the roots of the tree are starting to rot. If I don’t do this, there is no way to save it. If it is not broken, it will not stand. If I want to revive Xiaguo, I must cut down the entire trunk Yes! "

  Ling Hao said in a deep voice: "Do you really think Xia Guo can still be saved?"

"I don't know," Yang Yunzhi shook his head and said, "I don't know. Since I decided to implement the death plan forty years ago, I don't know whether Xia Guo can be saved. It's just that I met the current emperor, who is like-minded. If you dare to bet on the entire dynasty, why would I, Yang Yunzhi, dare not bet on it?"

After all, Yang Yunzhi pondered for a while, and said: "Master Ling, a corrupt dynasty, a dynasty that has existed for hundreds of years and has been rotten to the root, do you think there is any other way to save it? Apart from rising from the dilapidated, living in silence Recovery from extinction, is there any other way?"

  Ling Hao was silent for a while, then said: "The Ling family and the Dugu clan are just the beginning."

"Yes," Yang Yunzhi said: "The Ling family and the Dugu Clan have always controlled Qingzhou and Liangzhou. These two states are almost considered as the gates of the country, but the government's decrees cannot be implemented in these two states. The Ling family and the Dugu Clan The influence of the valve is too great, and the imperial court has no way to control these two states.

However, the imperial court has been rotten to the extreme, and a top-to-bottom comprehensive reform must be carried out. Once the reform is real, the first to be impacted are the world's aristocratic families. They are all blood-sucking moths. Like bone maggots sticking to Xia Guo's body and sucking continuously.

They don't care if the country of Xia has been sucked dry, and they don't care if the people in this world can't bear it anymore. In their eyes, as long as there are benefits that can be absorbed, it's fine to change the court when the suction is exhausted. , Change the world and continue to suck!

Therefore, if Xia Guo wants to save himself, the first thing to do is to pull out these tarsal maggots. Today, the emperor has this ambition to break through and then stand up. However, the Ling family and the Dugu Clan control Qingzhou and Liangzhou. Once the families of the major aristocratic families rebound, the Ling family and the Dugu family only need to open the country, and the country of Xia will have no life!

  Even if the Ling family and the Dugu Clan don’t open the country, as long as you control Qingzhou and Liangzhou for a day, the imperial court will be wary, and all reforms will be reduced to empty talk. You have restrained the imperial court’s throat! "

  Ling Hao closed his eyes slightly, and said: "So, you are reckless and paying such a high price to uproot the Ling family and the Dugu clan, are you betting on an uncertain future?"

  Yang Yunzhi pondered for a while, and said: "The Dead Time Project is just the prelude to Xia Guo's reform. How can I be sure whether this song can be sung to the end?

However, my mission has been completed. Now that the Ling family and the Dugu Clan have lost their absolute control over Qingzhou and Liangzhou, and the imperial court has no absolute lifeline controlled by aristocratic families, then in the next game, who will win and who will win? It's up to Your Majesty! "

Ling Hao sighed, and said: "Yang Yunzhi, what a demeanor you were back then, you, Yang Yunzhi, should be the most dazzling person in an era, why did you just...for this so-called reform, to save a dynasty that has rotted to the root? , you have become such a lonely person today, a little person no one remembers, is it worth it?"

Yang Yunzhi closed his eyes slightly, and after a long time, he said: "I used to think that I was doing it for the people of the world, but I didn't realize until a while ago that what I did was just an obsession, is it worth it? I also want to know, is it worth it?" ?”

  Ling Hao said in a deep voice: "I can tell you the answer, it's not worth it!"

  Yang Yunzhi looked puzzled.

  Ling Hao said: "Because you were the prelude to the collapse of the building, and you didn't succeed at all. The Ling family and the Dugu clan were defeated, but another person appeared in Yunzhou—Gu Zhan!"

Ling Hao sneered, and said: "I was always annoyed that I couldn't kill Gu Zhan to avenge my son, but now, I'm glad I didn't kill him, because his existence will make you, Yang Yunzhi, and the emperor happy." Planning becomes empty talk!"

  Yang Yunzhi said slowly: "I know what you're thinking, because Gu Zhan is strong enough, he can stand up to a powerful family by himself, and now that he has military power again, he can also establish a warlord.

However, I am not worried, because Gu Zhan is not the same as the aristocratic family. He has no direct conflict of interest with Daxia Reform. On the contrary, he is naturally on the same side with the imperial court. This is how you really gain momentum! "

  Ling Hao chuckled and said: "Yes, there is no problem with your analysis. Logically speaking, Gu Zhan and the imperial court should be natural allies. It's just a pity, Yang Yunzhi, you miscalculated something."

   "What?" Yang Yunzhi was puzzled.

"pride and Prejudice!"

Ling Hao said in a deep voice: "It's as if I never put Gu Zhan in my eyes, because I came from a noble family and Gu Zhan came from a humble family background. In my subconscious mind, when I face him, I am superior. What kind of achievement, in my opinion, is nothing more than a nouveau riche's muddy legs!

   To be honest, if it wasn’t because of my defeat this time, I fell into the dust all of a sudden, I’m afraid, I would never change my arrogance and prejudice against him.

  I am still like this, do you think that the royal family and court princes will treat Gu Zhan on an equal footing? In their eyes, Gu Zhan is nothing more than a warrior, and their attitude towards Gu Zhan will be superior.

  And, Gu Zhan..."

Ling Hao smiled lightly, and said: "Yang Yunzhi, you should know better than me what kind of person he is, tell me, what would he do if the princes and the royal family treated him with a superior attitude? "

  Yang Yunzhi frowned slightly, but did not speak.

Ling Hao smiled heartily, and said: "I have carefully looked at Gu Zhan's life, and I think he is quite interesting. Although he came from a humble background, he never had the idea of ​​breaking or changing the rules of the times, nor did he have the idea of ​​obeying. He's one of those guys who likes to be on top of the rules.

And he has walked all the way to the present, wherever he goes, it is the same. If the rules are below him, everything will be calm, but if the rules of that place are above him, if you want to restrain him, he will directly kill people, step by step. Kill above the rules. "

  Ling Hao sighed, and said: "So, Yang Yunzhi, tell me, what attitude will Chaotang have towards Gu Zhan? Let him make the rules together, or use the rules to oppress him?"

  Yang Yunzhi was silent for a while, and said, "Maybe, it will be different?"

Ling Hao chuckled lightly and said, "Yang Yunzhi, do you believe what you said? You, Yang Yunzhi, were so amazing and talented back then, but have you broken those arrogance and prejudice? No, if you, Yang Yunzhi, hadn't devoted yourself to Qin You Under the sect, even though you are unparalleled in talent, has anyone looked at you? Even if the current emperor is a good person, he doesn't know his background, but he alone can't influence so many people, or that class!"

   While talking,

  Ling Hao got up slowly, and said: "Yang Yunzhi, this problem is unsolvable. Pride and prejudice are engraved in the bones and cannot be changed. This is true in any era!"

  Yang Yunzhi lowered his head,

   After a long time, the wind blew up in the courtyard, and some dead leaves flew over here and there,

  Yang Yunzhi slowly raised his head and said, "I... can do as much as I can, alas, let's do it like this!"

  Ling Hao narrowed his eyes slightly, leaned over slowly, patted Yang Yunzhi's shoulder lightly, and said, "Yang Yunzhi, just go ahead, I'll be there soon!"

   Say it,

  Ling Hao flicked his cloak, drew his sword out of its sheath, and strode outside, curling up dead leaves and dancing, he said loudly: "Brothers, follow me in **** battle, and you will return to death!"

   "Swear to die!"

   "Swear to die!"

  All the soldiers shouted in unison, and as Ling Hao rushed out, the sound of gold and spears resounded, and the air of chilling pervaded the air.

  At this time, in Linjiang City,

  The sound of horseshoes is majestic,

   Signal flares exploded in the sky one by one.

   The sound of shouting and killing rose and fell from all sides of Linjiang City.

  The imperial army came, Ling Hao fought to the death!

  …

  The wind was blowing, and in the yard, densely packed dead leaves flew down, fluttering like a bright snow.

  At this time, the fallen leaves are flying all over the sky, which seems so tragic, maybe it is because there are big battles in the city at this time, or it is just one or two, like the fallen leaves that have no owner and lonely soul.

  Yang Yunzhi sat under the tree with his back bent and his head bowed,

  The leaves fell on his white hair, and on his clothes,

  The book in his hand slowly fell to the ground,

  Let the dead leaves fly to cover up,

   There is no more sound.

   The dead time plan and the foreshadowing plot are over, and a new journey will start tomorrow!
