(Chapter 272)
Events Pavilion.
In the dim meeting hall, Yue Zhongtai, the top official in the Council of Ministers, sat silently on his stone chair, meditating on something.
At this time, there was a voice outside the door.
Along with the trendy music and brisk pace, someone is about to come in.
Yue Zhongtai frowned and knew who it was without looking up.
Mu Zhai opened the door, and the whole solemn and solemn hall was filled with the music of Phoenix Legend, and the atmosphere suddenly became cheerful.
"Ouch? Mr. Yue Ge is here, what an unexpected surprise."
Yue Zhongtai was used to Mu Zhai's unconventional style, but he was still a little upset by the noise.
“It’s truly surprising that you would appear in this chamber!
I said, can you turn off the music first? Too noisy. "
"Oh~no~My mood has just risen, Lao Yue, don't just sit there motionless, learn from me, I want you to be old-hearted.
Come and sway with me~"
"If you don't stop, I'll smash your broken CD!"
Seeing that Yue Zhongtai was really angry, Mu Zhai pressed the close button.
Muge moved his neck, slowly walked to his seat, and sat down on the stone chair.
I haven't come to work for a long time, and the chairs are covered in dust.
Mu Zhai didn't care, wiped it casually with his sleeve, and sat down.
After sitting down, Mu Zhai's expression and posture suddenly changed. He put away his smile and instantly turned into a dignified and dignified man.
"Lao Yue, what's wrong? You look like you're not in a good mood?"
Mu Zhai squinted his eyes and looked at Yue Zhongtai.
The two have been friends for hundreds of years. Although they don't move around much on weekdays, they still have this understanding.
Yue Zhongtai snorted lightly and did not answer directly.
"The world is in such chaos, and some people only care about their own happiness and don't care about it, so I can only worry more about it.
There are big and small things going on all day long, so it’s amazing that I feel good! "
Yue Zhongtai teased. Mu Zhai could naturally tell that Lao Yue was complaining that he was not doing his job properly.
It's really strange when you think about it. In Mu Zhai's memory, he and Yue Zhongtai have never sat alone in this meeting hall.
"You don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything, why are you here?"
"Lao Yue, look at what you said, what do you mean by not going to the Three Treasures Hall for anything? I am also a member of the Great Affairs Pavilion, and this is also my home."
"whispering sound-"
Yue Zhongtai was disdainful and thought to himself, it's a shame that an old boy like you still remembers his identity.
"Guangyuan is dead. Did you know?"
Yue Zhongtai said suddenly.
Mu Zhai was stunned, "I know, that's why I came here. But I didn't expect that you already knew about it."
Mu Zhai was thinking in his mind that he had the power of distance and could appear almost anywhere at will. Therefore, your own news should be the fastest.
He had just come out of Weiyang City and rushed back after knowing what happened there.
But Lao Yue actually already knew, and where did his information come from? Is it possible that there are still Yue Zhongtai's people hiding in Weiyang City?
Mu Zhai didn't ask out loud. Asking about this kind of thing would be in vain.
Although Mr. Yuege usually looks like a tinderbox and can be easily fired at a moment's notice, in fact, this person is thick and thin at the same time, and is not an easy character to deal with. Otherwise, he would not have been in charge of the top job for so many years.
Yue Zhongtai seemed to have guessed the doubts in Mu Zhai's heart, and spoke out himself before he could ask.
"Guangyuan lost the duel with Chen Fan, but he didn't die there.
He happened to take Lin Chaoge's body and ran to Silent Valley to find that woman for help.
As a result, he was killed by the crazy woman. "
That woman…
So, Mu Zhai understood and felt relieved.
He originally thought that Guangyuan died in Weiyang City.
In this case, Lao Yue's news came from Daisy.
When mentioning that woman, a trace of gloom flashed across Mu Zhai's indifferent face. Subconsciously, I touched my heart with my hand...
Among the four old men in Dashi Pavilion, Yue Zhongtai is the eldest, two hundred years old.
Mu Zhai is the youngest, over 190 years old.
The reason why they can live so long is thanks to that woman.
A long time ago, Yue Zhongtai, Liu Xinghe, and Mu Zhai were all young officers full of passion and dedicated to protecting their family and country.
They are energetic and fearless.
So when the superiors recruited troops to enter the unknown place and explore the secrets of the Silent Valley, the three of them signed up without hesitation.
Silent Valley was already well-known at that time. Ghosts were rampant in it, and strangers were not allowed to enter.
At that time, the military headquarters dispatched 200 elites to form a task force, equipped with the best equipment, and broke in.
The valley was filled with mutated supernatural creatures, and the result was predictable. The special service team only lasted less than half a day before the entire army was wiped out.
However, three people survived.
When Yue Zhongtai, Liu Xinghe and Muzhai woke up, they found themselves naked and fixed on the operating table.
A strange woman in a white coat was concentrating on mixing potions.
"Who are you?! Where are we?!" Yue Zhongtai yelled immediately after he regained consciousness.
Mu Zhai and Liu Xinghe were still in a half-asleep state, with confused expressions on their faces.
This was the first time the three of them met Daisy.
The name Daisy was said by the woman herself, but who exactly she was and what her name was, no one knew.
After all, more than a hundred years ago, they saw that woman looking like she was about thirty years old. A hundred years later, when they saw her again, she still looked the same. Who knows how long she lived...
Daisy looked at the three of them blankly, "If you don't want to die, don't move. The bugs will fall."
insect? What bug?
Yue Zhongtai and the others suddenly felt something was wrong with them. When they lowered their heads and looked down, they were shocked and stunned.
Because there was already a big hole in their chest and heart, their heart had been dug out and replaced with what seemed to be a developing larvae.
Most of the strange bugs have stuck to their bodies, and it can be seen that they are still assimilating.
Mu Zhai was still young at the time and was a little panicked, "Crazy woman! What on earth do you want to do! Get this disgusting thing off my body!"
Daisy blinked and replied in a calm tone: "If you take them away, you will die immediately. Your lives are now being maintained by them."
Liu Xinghe: "What...what do you want to do?"
"It's very simple. Let's do an experiment. I didn't expect that I would encounter three good bodies at once.
Only a strong body can resist the erosion of deep-sea insects.
Your companions are all dead because they cannot bear it. "
deep sea worm
This is also the first time Yue Zhongtai and others have heard of this kind of thing.
Daisy did not hurt them. The three of them thought that they would not survive for a few days. After returning, they were too embarrassed to mention the bugs in their hearts to others and waited silently for death.
Unexpectedly, the bugs in the three people's mouths gradually integrated with their bodies. Not only did they not die quickly, but they lived for a long time.
Through accumulated strength and struggle over time, these three people unknowingly defeated all their competitors and became the top ministers of the country's highest authority, the Major Affairs Cabinet.
Although they have reached the top, the things that have been transformed by others are the lingering pain in the hearts of these old men forever.
They were terrified every day, not knowing what the strange bugs on their bodies were and what they would face in the future.
Until one day, Daisy introduced a man to them, Guangyuan.
This sloppy monk from southern Xinjiang seemed to know many secrets. He revealed the origin of the strange insects on the three of them, which were gifts from the Lord of the Deep Sea.
As long as they are like him and become loyal believers of the Poseidon Clan, they can gain eternal life and supreme power.
Since this person was introduced by Daisy, Yue Zhongtai could only arrange a seat for Guangyuan in the Grand Affairs Pavilion.
Daisy didn't let their help go in vain. She occasionally helped Dashige design some small toys, such as the Zhan Kuang Mecha...
"Lao Yue, I really didn't expect that you would keep in touch with that woman.
With such a close relationship, could it be that they have been in love for a long time? "
Mu Zhai was half-joking, and nodded with something in mind.
Yue Zhongtai remained serious, "You are already old, what nonsense are you talking about?"
"Oh, it's either that you have been in love for a long time, or you have already thought about what you want to be like as a servant of the Poseidon Clan?"
Mu Zhai seemed to be smiling but not smiling, his facial muscles twitched slightly, and the surging murderous intent suddenly filled the entire meeting hall!
