"You have met Emperor Taizong, who are you?"
Li Xingyun took two steps back and suddenly felt cold in the room.
The year of Zhenguan was more than three hundred years ago. How old would he be if he could meet Emperor Taizong?
It’s coming, it’s coming, it’s time to test my acting skills.
Hu Xiuwu slowly took off his mask, and Li Xingyun, who had looked up expectantly, suddenly stepped back in shock.
Behind the mask is a face with no hair or skin, the eyeballs are exposed, only flesh and bones are left, and even the lips seem to have been cut off, like a bloody corpse that has been skinned and tortured.
Such a nightmare-like face turned out to be a bad handsome man. This was something Li Xingyun never expected.
"Alas," Hu Xiuwu sighed and began to speak the prepared lines, "I am from Yashi Badi Jinkun, and my surname is Yuan and my name is Tiangang."
Li Xingyun was shocked: "You are Yuan Tiangang, the Yuan Tiangang who performed "Tui Bei Tu" with Li Chunfeng."
"Exactly." Hu Xiuwu nodded and raised his head slightly.
The deduction of "Tuibei Diagram" is the pinnacle of Yuan Tiangang's divination life and the result of cooperation with his close friends. It is the proudest and happiest thing in his heart. You should be proud of yourself.
Hu Xiuwu continued: "In the sixth year of Zhenguan, His Majesty Taizong recruited ministers into the palace to assist in state affairs."
"In the thirteenth year of Zhenguan, Emperor Taizong wandered into the underworld in his sleep. After waking up, he was shocked to find the Chihuhu Talisman in his hand. Only then did he know that what happened after death was true."
"After this incident, Taizong became afraid of what would happen after death and wanted to live forever, so he ordered his ministers to refine the elixir of immortality."
"We spent all the country's material resources and spent six years. In the 19th year of Zhenguan, when Master Xuanzang returned to the Tang Dynasty to obtain Buddhist scriptures, the elixir was finally completed."
Later, Hu Xiuwu sighed: "I tried the elixir in front of the emperor, but unfortunately the refining of the elixir failed. Although I gained immortality after taking the elixir, I also became like this."
"Although Taizong was afraid of what would happen after death, he did not want to become a stranger like me. After thinking for a long time and receiving the enlightenment of Master Xuanzang, he came to a profound enlightenment. He faced death calmly and chose to obey the emperor's dignity. Gone from the sky."
Hu Xiuwu paused: "The refining of the elixir failed, and my appearance was ruined. However, His Majesty cherished his talents and publicly made me the magistrate of Huobing County, and returned him to his hometown for retirement. However, secretly he ordered me to fake his death and escape, and secretly organized a gang of bad guys. , giving the minister the power to inspect and arrest, and help the country."
True and false, false and true, this story mixed with true and false deceived Li Xingyun to the point of doubt. He felt that what Hu Xiuwu told was a bit nonsense and a bit vague.
But what he said was sensible, and some of the details were consistent with some of the stories his father told him when he was a child.
Without waiting, Li Xingyun thought about it carefully, and Hu Xiuwu knelt down on one knee again: "As long as His Highness holds the Longquan sword, he can solve the mystery of Longquan and find the Longquan treasure."
"With Longquan's treasures being used as food and grass to win over people's hearts, unscrupulous people collecting intelligence from all sides, and underworld's underworld soldiers attacking the city and destroying the strongholds, your Highness will be able to revive the Tang Dynasty in one fell swoop, in the name of the direct bloodline of the Li family of the Tang Dynasty." !”
Li Xingyun waved his hand and turned around, avoiding the bad commander's kneeling, his mood waning: "The Tang Dynasty has exhausted its energy and people's hearts. Each feudal town has its own thoughts. If we want to revive the Tang Dynasty, we must use weapons again to displace the people and make more people Just like me, a brother has lost his brother, a son has lost his father, and a wife has lost her husband.”
"From now on, all I want is to kill Zhu Wen and avenge my father and brother."
Hu Xiuwu stood up and said passionately: "Your Highness, don't you think the ideas in your words are contradictory?"
"Zhu Wen is the puppet emperor of Liang. If His Highness kills him and does not proclaim himself emperor, the world will be in chaos. By then, the feudal lords and towns will attack each other, and more people will die."
"Is this what His Highness wants to see?"
Li Xingyun said sarcastically: "Could it be that the fighting between the feudal vassals and towns has stopped now?"
"Your Highness."
"That's enough. Since you call me Your Highness, you must abide by the distinction between monarch and minister. Don't force me any more!"
Li Xingyun roared angrily, turned around and left.
Hu Xiuwu stopped him: "Your Highness, take the Longquan Sword away."
Li Xingyun stopped and stood by the door: "The Longquan Sword involves the Longquan treasure. Many people are looking for it. If I bring it with me, it will only cause trouble."
Hu Xiuwu waved his hand, and the air wave directly bounced the heavy sword case on the table away and hit Li Xingyun.
Li Xingyun caught it with his arms. Hu Xiuwu then said leisurely:
"You are the greatest treasure in the world. I heard that you first met Ji Ruxue, the maid of the Empress of Qi State, in Yuzhou City, and then met Black and White Wuchang of the Xuanming Sect, and a mysterious man."
"Xuanming Sect and Miaoyinfang must have known about you. If the Yin soldiers' news is true, Longquan can also protect you."
Li Xingyun thought for a while and felt that what Hu Xiuwu said was reasonable, so he still carried the sword box on his back.
Hu Xiuwu said: "There is a hot spring pool at the bottom of the Tibetan Soldiers Valley. Although it is not as luxurious and delicate as Huaqing Pool, it still has a unique wild charm and can relieve fatigue. Your Highness is tired from traveling and traveling, so you might as well give it a try."
"Okay," Li Xingyun agreed, opened the door, and stood in front of the threshold without looking back, "Thank you for teaching me martial arts after so many years."
Then he left the room and strode in the direction of Lu Linxuan and Shangguan Yunque. Hu Xiuwu's voice arrived first from behind him.
"Shangguan, go and prepare a residence for His Highness."
Only then did Shangguan Yunque let go of his nervousness. He clapped his hands and twisted his waist charmingly: "Okay, Commander, don't worry."
After walking out of the room and watching the three people leave, Hu Xiuwu smiled slightly under the mask.
'It's interesting. In the original work, Yuan Tiangang, who only wanted to be Li Xingyun's best friend, was not trusted by Li Xingyun, but as for me, a fake, he still had a trace of gratitude. '
'Sure enough, for most high school students, a strict father who urges you to make progress and doesn't seem to understand you will never be as good as the older brother who hands you cigarettes outside school. '
Unfortunately, outsiders' candies are usually filled with poison.
"Sanqianyuan, let undercover bad people from other forces spread the news."
"Let's just say that Zhaozong's son Li Xingyun has been born, and he is still carrying the Longquan sword."
"yes."
The bad guy Tenzosei Sanzenin, who is proficient in the art of disguise and only plays high-end games, is hiding in the dark, waiting for the bad guy's instructions.
The person who was waiting for the bad commander and responsible for delivering the news was originally the Heavenly Sin Star Jing Xin Mo, but the Jing Xin Mo is now undercover next to Li Cunxu, the legitimate son of King Li Keyong of Jin Dynasty, and it is inconvenient to come to the Hidden Soldier Valley.
Tianzang Xingsanqianyuan temporarily took over the responsibility of the Mirror Heart Demon, responsible for communicating with bad people everywhere and passing on information.
After receiving the order, Sanqianyuan did not leave, but conveyed new information to the bad commander: "Commander, the bad people of Tongwen Hall sent news that a man who called himself Ding Shian broke into the general rudder of Tongwen Hall and defeated the Thirteen Taibao. The first one is Li Siyuan, the Holy Master of Tongwen Hall."
"Xuan Ming Sect Ming Emperor has a new disciple named Shen Chong, who is suspected to have the strength to reach the heavenly position. He is named a Horse-headed Rakshasa."
"There is a woman named Xia He, who is naturally charming and has at least a small level of skill. She has joined Miaoyinfang."
"The King of Chu, Ma Yin, passed away. His eldest son, Ma Xiyue, succeeded him. The whereabouts of his youngest son, Ma Xisheng, are unknown."
Hu Xiuwu asked curiously: "Huh? Ma Xiyue is ambitious but talented but ruthless and ungrateful. What made him determined?"
"I heard that after he succeeded to the throne, he immediately appointed an unknown person named Gong Qing as the right minister of Chu State."
