Chapter 482 Red Dust Tribulation (23)
"Master Water, what else do you think about the cleaning of Purgatory?"
Cong Yan's arrival interrupted the conversation between Shui Yuntian and Xiang Wan.
They had previously cooperated to bring Wu Tong to this small courtyard, and they had gotten their wish.The following things will naturally need to continue.
Shui Yuntian stood up and said to Cong Yan: "It's too bloody there, why don't we invite the mages from Nanyue Temple to go together. Their help is indispensable to save the dead souls."
Cong Yan listened, looked at Xiang Wan, then at Shui Yuntian, thought for a moment, and then agreed.However, he was a little puzzled, since there was one beside Shui Yuntian, and it was unnecessary to invite other people?
The doubt in his eyes was solved by Shui Yuntian's supplementary words.
"The monk suffered internal injuries, so I'm afraid he won't have time to spare. We must act quickly, before they have time to react, so as not to change things."
Shui Yuntian was lying to Xiang Wan, but Xiang Wan didn't intend to explain.Because the next thing has nothing to do with her.
It's not that she has nothing to do with herself, but that the key problem has been solved, and the rest are trivial matters. It doesn't matter whether she has her or not.
Cong Yan left in a hurry, Xiang Wan meditated for a while, then got up and walked out of the small courtyard.
Fishing has always been about the size of the bait, and the size of the fish.And this bait, except for Prime Minister Wu Tong, no one else opened their mouths that much to eat it.
Being an official in Nanyue Kingdom, apart from civil servants, they are also military officials, the distinction is very clear.But Wu Tong was not like this. He was indeed a civil servant at first, but later he became a military officer, because his physique and understanding changed when he entered the court and came into contact with martial arts.
The monarchs of the Nanyue Kingdom since the past dynasties have all been top masters in martial arts. Because of this, in order to avoid being usurped by others, the court emphasizes civility over military affairs. It's not high, or it's just scribbling.There are very few officials like Wutong.
To be able to step up to the position of prime minister, besides sharing the worries of the monarch wholeheartedly, eradicating ministers who have dissenting intentions, is doing a great thing that benefits the country and the people.As for those ministers who have different intentions, it doesn't matter whether they really have treasonous intentions. The important thing is that Wu Tong can find evidence and the monarch can believe it.This is how Purgatory came about.
There is actually a shortcut for the Yue family to practice martial arts, which is the stone in the old monarch's hand.It was a fine stone formed by the condensed martial arts practice of the old monarch who guarded Nanyue Kingdom before his death. To put it bluntly, it was similar to a monk's relic.After the monk died, he left behind a relic to prove his cultivation, and others just enshrined it as a treasure, but this essence stone from the Yue family can pass on his cultivation.It's just that the steps to absorb the cultivation of the previous generation of old monarchs are relatively complicated, and the method will be told to the next generation of guardians only before death.
Wu Tong, who did not know where he found out about this matter, relied on the trust of the current monarch, and in the name of protecting the old monarch, unexpectedly imprisoned Yue Mayun with tricks.The chain locked his lute bone, making it impossible for the old monarch to use force, in order to coerce him to hand over the essence stone and tell him how to absorb the energy in the essence stone.
Yue Mayun knew that if Wu Tong wanted to cultivate, he would not be content to be a prime minister, even if he was tortured every day, he did not disclose any information.His spiritual pillar is the current monarch, that is, his son, who is stronger than Wu Tong.It was precisely because of this that Wu Tong did not act rashly.
Cong Yan was brought by Yue Majie since he was a child. He had seen the Jingshi, but he didn't know its true purpose. He only knew that if he saw this thing, the old king must have told him that he was still alive and asked him to save him. .Therefore, the cooperation with Shui Yuntian came about.
Their strategy is very simple, Shui Yuntian wants to kill the enemy with his own hands, and Cong Yan is responsible for uprooting Wutong's forces.If Shui Yuntian died, the entire courtyard would be surrounded by soldiers from Tianmen Sect and Congyan. No matter whether they dared to use poison or fire, no one would be allowed to escape from here.
Shui Yuntian was a little desperate, but it was intriguing to drag Xiangwan into this apparent act of putting himself to death.
Wu Tong would come here not only because of Cong Yan's news that Shui Yuntian had the essence stone that the old monarch had given to Xiang Wan, but also because this place was the courtyard where Wu Tong lived before becoming an official.This place has been abandoned for so many years, and suddenly he heard that someone lived in, so he wanted to come and have a look.
People with high positions and powers would not easily risk their own lives, but Wu Tong thought that he had few opponents in Nanyue Kingdom, and there were quite a few masters accompanying him.It has been more than ten years since he imprisoned the old monarch, and his patience has almost been worn out. Even if there is a slight possibility, he does not want the essence to fall by the wayside.Because of suspicion, because of self-confidence, so he came.
Once you come, you can't leave.
If he didn't come, Shui Yuntian and Cong Yan would have other ways to seduce him. Xiang Wan didn't pay attention any more. What she cared about was whether Wu Tong, who was escorted back, had other tricks that he hadn't used.
It all came so easily, it made her feel unreal.
"Monk, war is about to start, even if you have become a monk, you can't stay out of it."
That's it!
The construction of civil defense residences in the east and the opening of waterways in the west mean that Nanyue Kingdom will not be able to live in peace forever.
What Xiang Wan knew before was that Prime Minister Wu Tong contacted Xi Mu privately and then secretly colluded with the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.Once the two countries join forces and declare war on Nanyue Kingdom, Nanyue Kingdom will definitely be in chaos, and even the king will have to go to the battlefield.
During the time of war and chaos, Wu Tong took the opportunity to attack the monarch, and the Nanyue Kingdom had no master, so he, the prime minister, was the supreme ruler of the court.At that time, even if the old monarch doesn't give him the essence stone, he has successfully usurped the power and the throne, but it will take some time to quell the war.If it wasn't necessary, he still couldn't imagine being able to become the king with just one soldier. Who would want to take over the devastated Nanyue Kingdom?
Perhaps, it was because Shui Yuntian and the others chose the timing precisely enough that Wutong wanted to give it a go even if he knew it was a conspiracy.
"Shui Yuntian, if the Nanyue Kingdom is destroyed, the country will not be a country, and the family will not be a family. Is it just what you want?" Xiang Wan asked back.
Wutong has been planning for so long, if Nanyue Kingdom wants these two countries to cease their troops for no reason and shake hands to make peace, it may not be easy.
Today, the Tianmen Sect is the most powerful in the Jianghu. It is not known how many people in the court have not been subdued by Wutong.If Wutong's successor is dead, he will also destroy Nanyue Kingdom.
This is the thinking of some extreme people. If they can't get it, they will be completely destroyed.
How cruel it is for so many living people to pay for their desires.
"Since I was a child, the word "home" has been useless in my heart, and it will only make me miserable. Yes or no, what's the difference?"
In Shui Yuntian's light and fluffy words, the sadness and sadness in them, I'm afraid only he himself can understand.
"You can save as many people as you have killed in your life. Only after you have cleared away all the murders in your body will you be eligible to fight for it."
"Is this true?"
"Monks, don't lie."
"it is good!"
