Chapter one hundred and seventy-four, confident and bullshit
After Jian Ruochen and the other three took the elixir, they slowly improved quickly and were able to get up and move soon. Jian Ruochen knew that it would take at least ten days and a half to recover, so he was not in a hurry to heal. He immediately stood up and walked towards Xiang An. Jian Ruomu and Jian Ruoyun looked at each other and stood up to follow.
The three of them surrounded Xiang An, and Jian Ruochen said, "Your name is Xiang An? Are you a member of the Chaoge Xiang family? Why do you want to lurk in our Immortal Sword Sect to harm my disciples?"
"Yes, I, Xiang An, belong to the Xiang family," Xiang An said, "but my actions have nothing to do with the Xiang family. They are all my personal actions. I have never killed any of your Immortal Sword Sect disciples when I came to the Immortal Sword Sect. , Oh, except for Lian Jiang just now, but he was mainly injured because of Elder Ruomu’s sword, so I just helped him.”
"Not to mention Lian Jiang," Jian Ruochen said, "This person is not worthy of being a disciple of my Immortal Sword Sect, and it would be a shame to die. Let me ask you how you colluded with Jian Ruoshu."
"My mission is to kill Qingshi," Xiang An did not hide it. "After I left Chaoge more than five years ago, I started planning to sneak into the Immortal Sword Sect. I knew that Qingshi would definitely come to the Immortal Sword Sect, so I wanted to lurk here and wait. He threw himself into a trap.”
"I pretended to be a handyman and sneaked in. I originally just wanted to wait for Qingshi to find an opportunity to take action, and I didn't want to have any entanglement with your Immortal Sword Sect. Then one day something happened, and Jian Si, the Laughing Character Generation, went crazy. In that incident, he was obviously poisoned and went crazy, it's ridiculous that you all said he was possessed."
"I was curious for a moment and investigated secretly, and found out that this matter was a conspiracy between Jian Ruoshu and his two nephews. I saw that Jian Ruoshu was very good at using poisons, and I thought I could use him to deal with Qingshi, so I designed We created a trap to catch him."
"I threatened Jian Ruoshu and asked him to help me poison Qingshi, otherwise I would expose his conspiracy and kill him. But he is not afraid of death. He said that he can help me, but the premise is that I must also help him."
"The cooperation with him went more smoothly than I imagined. So, with his help, I quickly controlled the two magic circles of the trial chain and the trial cave. He wanted to control the magic circle to kill those who accepted the test. An outstanding disciple, I also want to use the magic circle and poison to deal with Qingshi. That’s the way it is.”
Jian Ruochen said: "When did you master the magic circle?"
"Let me think about it..." Xiang An said, "I sneaked in five years ago. The Sword Four incident occurred in less than three months. I spent nearly three months investigating and setting up an ambush to capture the sword. Ruoshu, then he took control of the magic circle in less than a month, and it has been about four and a half years now."
"Jian Yi has taken two tests in the past four years and failed both times," Jian Ruochen frowned and said, "Jian Two passed four years ago. Did you and Jian Ruoshu do anything in it?"
"That's it!" Xiang An said, "If we follow the meaning of Jian Ruoshu, both Jian Yi and Jian Two must die in the test circle. I don't agree. I insist on waiting for Qingshi to come and my matter to be successful. Give him the control array. However, Jian Yi Jian Er and all the disciples who have been tested in the past four and a half years, their results are not accurate."
"Why?" Jian Ruomu asked anxiously.
"Because it's not that easy for me to control the magic circle," Xiang An said, "I had to modify and destroy some settings, so these test items have some changes compared with the original design, and sometimes they don't work well, and they can't be done. Correct."
"That means you may not be able to pass Sword Two," Jian Ruochen said, "And you may not be able to pass Jian One, right?"
"Yes," Xiang An said, "But Jian Er is a little different. It's true that he passed the third level. I don't have and can't control the third level of the trial ladder. But having said that, if Jian Er doesn't happen to be very If you pass the first and second levels easily, you may not have enough time and energy to pass the third level, so you still can’t do it accurately.”
"So, the two disciples of the Lien generation who died on the road to trial back then," Jian Ruomu asked, "shouldn't it be your fault?"
"Of course not. Isn't this nonsense?" Xiang An said, "The thing you are talking about was more than ten years ago, and it has only been less than five years since I came to the mountain. In the past few years, I have not only been tested Except for causing trouble, he has never killed any innocent people. Jian Ruoshu’s formation cultivation is nothing, so it can’t be him. He uses poison to kill people.”
"Then why didn't he just poison those disciples to death? He even poisoned us together," Jian Ruomu said, "What kind of magic circle do you still need to create?"
"Do you think he doesn't want to do this? He can't do it!" Xiang An looked at Jian Ruomu with contempt and said, "Do you think that just digging up grass all over the mountains and fields can be poison? Poison is very precious, do you understand? Good poison It has to be poisonous enough, and a smaller dose is enough to kill someone. With a body and cultivation like yours, even two large bowls of ordinary poison can’t kill the ball. Not only that, it also has to be colorless, odorless, and undetectable by people, and colorful and colorful. Or will anyone eat rotten egg-flavored poison? With your IQ, you may not be able to eat it, right?"
"So, it's very difficult to get some good poison! Some of the ingredients for high-grade poisons can't be bought even if you pawn them off, and some you can't buy no matter how rich you are. For example, I gave it to Jian Ruoshu this time. Used against you..."
"Ahem! Let's not talk about this! In addition, the method of using poison is also very particular. Do you think you can just take a packet of powder and sprinkle it on a large pot in the kitchen, and you can burp all the bachelors of the Immortal Sword Sect, big and small? Next? Poison can't be that simple and convenient...forget it, I'm too lazy to tell you!"
"You want to die so much that you can't wait any longer?" Jian Ruomu said angrily, "I will help you now!" He was about to step forward and take action.
"Elder Ruomu, please ignore this guy," Qingshi came over to stop Ruomu and said, "We have basically discovered all the doubts, but the actual situation is quite different from our speculation. But no matter what, Jian Ruoshu is a hidden cancer. They have been eliminated, and my assassin has been uncovered, and we still won a great victory."
"Yes!" Jian Ruochen said, "Our Xianjian Sect has not only eliminated the cancer, but also eliminated more hidden dangers! Brother Ruomu, Ruochen sincerely apologizes to you. Let's not mention the regrets of the past, okay? From now on. We treat each other sincerely and never let such misfortunes happen to the Immortal Sword Sect again."
"Head!" Jian Ruomu said, "Ruomu neglected his duty. You didn't hold me accountable and you apologized to me. This... this makes me really ashamed! From today on, I only obey your orders. Don’t let our Immortal Sword Sect fall apart and lose our hearts.”
The two looked at each other and nodded in relief.
"It's time to unite people's hearts," Jian Ruoyun said. "Jian Yi and Jian Liu left the sect, and Jian Er, Jian San and others stayed together. The situation of the next generation of our Immortal Sword Sect is worrying."
"Well!" Jian Ruochen said, "As long as Senior Brother Ruomu and I set an example first, I believe we can definitely make things right and give the Immortal Sword Sect a new look."
Looking at Jian Ruochen and the others, Qingshi felt relieved.
Looking at Xiang An again, Qingshi said: "Uncle Ruochen, although Xiang An sneaked into the Immortal Sword Sect and did a lot of bad things, fortunately the damage caused was not too big. His target is me, so why not just hand him over to me?" Deal with it!”
"Of course, my nephew will take care of it." Jian Ruochen nodded.
"Such a shameless person will only be happy if he cuts him off with a knife!" Jian Ruomu said.
Jian Ruoyun said, "Xiang An, you and Jian Ruoshu seem to have accomplices, right? Besides Lian Jiang and Jian Erjiu, who else is there?"
"No more," Xiang An said. "The few handymen running errands didn't know it. Jian Ruoshu's real accomplice was Jian Lianjiang. Jian Lianbi and Jian Erjiu were just coveting the treasure I promised and wanted to kill Qingshi. They don't know Jian Ruoshu's conspiracy. Just last night, Jian Lianbi was killed by Jian Ruoshu because he was unwilling to poison the head of Ruochen."
Jian Ruochen shook his head and sighed, and said, "Let's go back to Juhuading. Let's leave Jian Erjiu to Junior Brother Ruoyun. Qingshi, after you finish dealing with Xiang An, come back to Juhuading. We'll handle the follow-up." Let’s discuss later.”
After saying that, Jian Ruochen, Jian Ruomu, Jian Ruoyun and the others left. Instead of walking on the trial chain, they took Jian Ruomu's airship and left three passage orders for Qingshi. There was a large group of people watching at Juhuading. When they saw the airship coming, they gathered around to greet it. Soon they walked down the top of the mountain together and disappeared out of sight.
Qingshi watched the airship leave, turned to Xiang An and said, "Brother Xiang, do you really have no accomplices?"
"there is none left!"
"Your attitude is not good. This is the time. If you want to survive, you should be more honest."
"I'm not lying to you. First of all, there is indeed no one in the Immortal Sword Sect. I still have two subordinates in Guo Zhengfu of Donghai Kingdom. But they followed me out to do things and don't know my true purpose."
"Guo Zheng was also involved?"
"No, I asked him to do things for me in the name of imperial envoy, such as helping me sneak into the Immortal Sword Sect, helping me deliver news, etc. But he didn't know the inside story, so he really had no accomplices. You know, this kind of thing The less people know about it, the better.”
"Okay! I believe you."
Qingshi took two steps in thought, stopped and looked at Xiang An and said, "Brother Xiang, you lose, why not cut off your head yourself!"
"No, no, no! It's okay to cut other people's heads, but I can't cut my own!"
"You want me to help you?"
"Brother Qingshi, you are so cruel! After all, we have been together through life and death..."
"How can it be that exaggerated? We're just going on a mission together!"
"You are so heartless!"
"You were the one who wanted to kill me first!"
"Someone else forced me! Besides, I didn't really kill you. Why are you so petty?"
"Alas!" Qingshi shook his head helplessly, "Tell me! What other options do you have? How dare you lie to me so confidently!"
"I just said you are extremely smart!" Xiang An laughed, "I like talking to smart people the most. The old man just now was so stupid that I was too lazy to say more to him."
"Alas! To be honest, I haven't had a good night's sleep in the past five years or so! I know that it is too difficult to kill you, and even if I succeed, there will be endless troubles. The old emperor knows that you are dead. What's the point of tracing it? What if the person who gave the order wants to silence me? It's really hard for me!"
"And the most worrying thing is, what if I fail to kill you but are overpowered by you? So I had to have a backup plan in advance. I know that Brother Qingshi is very emotional, so I did a little trick My preparation is to prevent it from falling into your hands like today. You won’t blame me, will you?”
"Holy shit! What the hell did you do?" Qingshi really wanted to kick this bastard to death.
"It's not done yet," Xiang An said dissatisfied, "It's just a precautionary measure."
"Explain it to me clearly!" Qingshi said. Based on his understanding of Xiang An, it would be strange if this man didn't arrange a backup plan, so he didn't dare to kill him rashly.
"That's it," Xiang An said, "I knew it was too difficult to kill the Qingshi brothers, so I invited two helpers. Later I found out that the relationship between the two of them and the Qingshi brothers was extraordinary. I thought, I'll kill them. You are already in a very difficult situation, and it would be a terrible tragedy to have you kill each other again, so I did not tell them the true purpose of this trip."
"I placed them in an absolutely safe place where no one could find me but me, but I forgot to tell them how to get out of there. If I couldn't go back, they would probably be trapped there forever. But the scenery there is nice, except that the place is a little small..."
"Enough! Who are they?"
"Duan Wutian, Shen Jiayun."
"I'll beat you to death, you bastard..."
...
Qingshi stopped his fists and stood breathing heavily. Xiang An lay on the ground with a bruised nose and a swollen face, moaning, but his face was relatively relaxed, and his mouth was still so mean: "Thank you brother Qingshi, I feel pain in my body and feel happy in my heart! You beat me like this After I had a meal, I felt a lot less guilty in my heart. Besides, Xiaopang just hit me with a slap that broke seven of my meridians and broke sixteen bones. Brother Qingshi’s punch didn’t make me gain any strength. Broken bones, oh oh, my nose is broken, but it’s just this one, which shows that my brother is merciful and still has feelings for me..."
"Shut up!"
"Okay, okay, Brother Qingshi, you might as well calm down for a while."
After a while, Qingshi asked: "The two subordinates you mentioned are Duan Wutian and Shen Jiayun? You imprisoned them in Guo Zheng's Mansion? Imprisoned for five years?"
"No! I'm not that bad! It's not them who are in Guo Zheng's Mansion." Xiang An said, "I didn't think about Lao Duan and Xiao Shen at all at first. It wasn't until Jiang Chenxiu failed to kill you a year ago that I returned to the court. Ge found a way to bring them out, and I took them to a small island in the East China Sea. The island was originally a secret base of the former Imperial Guard. It was not very important. It mainly collected some resources that were only available at sea and returned them to My boss, Lao Huang, managed it. When I overthrew the Jiang family, I clicked Lao Huang, and the island became my private property. After I brought Lao Duan and Xiao Shen there, I activated the magic circle to keep them on the island. , it’s only been half a year so far.”
"It's your grandma's!" Qingshi was furious and cursed the small world of Earth and the Kingdom of Heaven, "There are quite a few bad ideas!"
"It was my idea, not my grandma's!" Xiang An said in surprise and anger, "My grandma is also Wuji's grandma. When you came to my house during the Chinese New Year, grandma even gave you a red envelope. How could you slander her like this? Old man!"
Qingshi was stunned and said: "This is my hometown dialect, and it is a curse word. It has nothing to do with your grandma, I respect your elders. We like to say this when we curse people, for example, we can also say 'your grandma'..." ..."
"Why is it related to my grandma again?"
"That's not what I meant. It's just a habitual way of speaking! Aren't you pretty damn smart? You can't understand this? You're pretending to be stupid on purpose, right?"
"How do you know whether my mother is smart or not?"
"I...I know your sister!"
"You know my sister too? You know everything about her. Please tell me clearly..."
...
