Why is it cold in winter? Why is it hot in summer? Why does the sun rise in the east and set in the west? Why can't people fly?
Is this someone or other life forms deliberately guiding outside the "chessboard"?
Are all things in the world like chess pieces? What is the future of this living being outside the "chessboard"?
Is the world where he exists another bigger "chessboard"?
In the past, the future was unpredictable. In the minds of Huang Daozhang and others, the future was the result. The result was just the final form of one or more things. It could be inferred from the character and development of the relevant people or things, and it was not mysterious.
However, the four words "Four Strange Scholars" exist in the future, not in the past. It is not the final form of anything, but a new thing that appeared in advance of the past.
Shangguan Yuan proposed these four words without seeing any relevant connection, which is enough to prove one thing. The future is the latter. If the future is the latter, who or what kind of life form is guiding the situation of the entire world? ?
One person's behavior can change a lot of things, not to mention the billions of people on the land of Kyushu, such a big "chessboard", how can the people who "play chess" control it?
horrible! horrible!
The four of them were extremely moved. How could Shangguan Yuan reveal such important information to people like them who had just met each other? Didn't she know how this matter would affect her if it spread?
Just having a virtual warrior beside her would not have any effect at all.
"You can't tell anyone about this, not under any circumstances, no matter what happens!"
The four of them secretly swore in their hearts at the same time that they would never leak this secret. Trust is like a bridge, from one person's heart to another's heart.
Huang Daozhang had too many secrets in his mind. He was used to hiding his thoughts, so he was the first to regain his composure, "It's not that he was surprised, but that he was flattered. We can't afford such a big name!"
Hou Cen and others came over one after another and said: "Yes, this is really a huge compliment, we don't deserve it!"
Although Wang Chi has not reached the realm of extraordinary wisdom, he is not stupid. The four of them are obviously hiding something, so they continue: "Oh, I think you are qualified!"
Li Wei and Yuan Cheng are not stupid either. It's just a name. Even if they hide something, it has nothing to do with them.
"We are here..."
Before Li Wei finished speaking, he was interrupted by Hou Cen, "Qi Chongbao is now the chairman of the four ministries and an official of the dynasty. How dare you interfere in government affairs and kill innocent people indiscriminately?"
Li Jun added: "Are you really not afraid of the Five Holy Lands?"
Huang Daozhang also added: "Do we know Chi Yan from Tongtian Pavilion!"
Yuan Cheng coughed twice and said: "Calm down, everyone, there is no need to carry Brother Chiyan out. We know the rules and will not force Qi Chongbao to do anything. We are here to make a deal with him!"
Li Wei also explained: "What you do with us in the Jianghu on a voluntary basis is allowed in the Five Holy Lands!"
Huang Daozhang asked suspiciously: "Do you know Chi Yan?"
Yuan Chengdao: "We have dealt with him several times. This guy doesn't like to stay inside the door. He runs around all day long. We are all good citizens who abide by the law!"
Li Jun said sternly: "A good citizen killed so many people just to seize the treasure?"
Li Wei looked outside and said: "The five holy places don't care about the disputes and killings in the rivers and lakes!"
Yuan Chengdao: "If we don't kill them, they will kill us. They are not innocent!"
Qi Chongbao said: "I disdain to be associated with you and will not do business with you. You go!"
The literati hated killing, so they issued an order to expel the guests in a few words.
Yuan Cheng: "You still..."
Li Jun: "Brother Qi has already said that he will not do business with you. Please give me your invitation!"
Hou Cen: "Or do you want to violate the regulations of the Five Holy Lands and buy and sell by force?"
Li Wei waved his hand hurriedly: "I don't dare, I don't dare, I just want Brother Qi to hear the contents of the transaction and then make a decision, so as not to regret it!"
Qi Chongbao: "I won't regret it, let's go!"
Qi Chongbao was about to turn around and leave when Huang Daozhang stopped him and said, "It's okay to listen, let's see what they want!"
Yuan Cheng: "Yes, it doesn't hurt to listen. If you don't agree, we will turn around and leave immediately!"
Qi Chongbao: "Okay, you guys say it, I won't agree to it anyway!"
Li Wei: "Don't you want to know where your Qi family's treasure, the jade gourd is?"
Qi Chongbao: "I don't want to!"
"We have found out where the jade gourd is, but we can't enter that place. Only you can go in. As long as you help us get the jade gourd, we can do one thing for you!"
Qi Chongbao: "I have no interest in that baby, and I won't help you, and I don't need you to do anything!"
Li Wei: "When your parents left with their baby, don't you want to know the story behind it?"
Qi Chongbao's heart skipped a beat. He was afraid, he was very afraid. That treasure was related to the safety of his parents. Although he didn't seem to care, he was very worried in his heart.
"How are my parents?"
"Killed!"
"When did this happen?"
"A long time ago! When you were little!"
Qi Chongbao's heart felt as if it had been struck by a huge pillar. It was very, very painful. Long before he became the chairman of the Four Ministries, during the Qi Dynasty, he was already a world-famous talent. His name has not changed. , if his parents knew about it, they would definitely come to see him, but the fact that they haven’t come for so many years means...
Qi Chongbao had already thought of it, but when he was told that the huge pain still exceeded his expectations, why is this world so cruel!
"Who killed him?"
"………………"
Li Wei and Yuan Cheng were silent.
"You don't know either?"
"we know!"
"That…………"
"This is the deal. We will tell you the truth and help you get revenge, but you have to help us take out the jade gourd!"
The arrogance of the literati, do whatever you are told, do it even if you die, don’t do it if you say you won’t do it, put the knife on your neck, and don’t even blink. The Siqi literati are the best among the literati. This name has just been passed down. How can you destroy your reputation if you come out, but the hatred of your parents...
Seeing that Qi Chongbao was still hesitating, Li Wei said: "The murderer is very strong. Even we need to work hard. Although you are the chairman now, you should know the difference between ordinary people and virtual warriors. If you miss us, you will think about it in the future." Revenge is just..."
"My parents are ordinary people. So many people were snatching jade gourds back then. Why didn't the Five Holy Lands do anything?"
"First of all, your parents are not ordinary people. Secondly, it is difficult to judge things like robbing things. There is no evidence, and there is no accuser. The Five Holy Lands will not go to war for one or two people!"
"My parents are not ordinary people??"
"At least they are virtual warriors, otherwise it would be impossible to activate the power of the jade gourd!"
"Okay, the deal is done!"
It was not Qi Chongbao who agreed to Li Wei, but Hou Cen, "The hatred between parents is irreconcilable. The people who killed your parents just wanted to steal the jade gourd. It is perfect to use it to avenge your parents!"
"But they..."
Qi Chongbao really didn't want to make this deal with them, but Li Wei's price was too high, and he couldn't do whatever he wanted. Two tight hoops were stuck on his neck. If one was removed, the other would be tighter. It was really a dilemma.
Huang Daozhang: "Don't think about it. Filial piety, loyalty, trust, etiquette, justice, integrity and shame are the first, followed by trust, etiquette and shame. Brother Qi, you don't have to hesitate!"
"Okay, I promise you, but if you lie to me, will it be considered a violation of the rules of the Five Holy Lands?"
Li Wei: "It doesn't count. It's hard to define. But don't worry, we have no reason to lie to you. Our goal is the jade gourd. Even if we get the treasure in the future, we won't offend the Five Holy Lands for this matter. Isn't it a shame?" Picking up sesame seeds from the watermelon?”
Yuan Cheng: "If we are thoroughly investigated by the Five Holy Lands because of this matter, it will be unbearable even if we control the Xuanwu Sect Heavenly Palace. You can rest assured!"
When Huang Daozhang heard this, he couldn't help asking: "Is there something I don't know whether to ask or not?"
Li Wei: "Since you agreed to the deal, we are all our own, so we should know everything and say everything!"
Huang Daozhang: "Why are you so afraid of the Five Holy Lands? Aren't they also virtual warriors? After you control such a huge sect as the Xuanwu Sect and the Heavenly Palace, you are still afraid of them? Why...?"
Yuan Cheng hurriedly interrupted Huang Daozhang: "Shh, my brother, please keep your voice down. We have no conscience. We have never said anything bad about the Five Holy Lands. We are all good citizens!"
Li Wei also looked around nervously, for fear of being overheard by someone.
"To put it simply, even ten Xuanwu Gate Celestial Palaces cannot defeat one Tongtian Pavilion!"
"so smart!?"
"But why did Long Yun kill the people from Jinghai Cihangzhai? Is everything okay?"
With a look from Li Wei, Yuan Cheng instantly stood up and closed all the doors and windows of the entire hall. At the same time, an invisible force pressed all the surrounding tables and chairs against the wall, leaving only seven people in the center!
"Long Yu is the King of Peking of the Qi Dynasty. According to the rules, people in the Jianghu are not allowed to participate in the affairs of the court! They are also not allowed to kill courtiers indiscriminately!"
Huang Daozhang became even more confused, "But, the person he killed was the pavilion master of Jinghai Cihangzhai!"
Li Wei lowered his voice until it was almost inaudible: "Isn't she a member of the world?"
"What!!!"
Hou Cen asked in surprise: "Don't you think you can violate the rules of the Five Holy Lands?"
"certainly!!!"
"What's more, that pavilion master is just......"
Li Wei was about to be stopped by Yuan Cheng, but he shook his head and said: "You just need to know that the Five Holy Lands must not violate this. Knowing too much is not good for you!"
After Huang Daozhang and others became the Speaker, they learned a lot of things, including some secrets about the Jianghu. In addition to the Five Holy Lands, there were also prestigious imperial sects. They had also seen the ruthless and brutal style of the Jianghu sects. If they hadn't They had been killed long ago according to the rules of the Five Holy Lands. Now it seems that this rule is so strict that not even one of their own can violate it.
"That's right, there are no rules without rules. The five holy places have rules. First, you have to set an example!"
Huang Daozhang still has questions: "According to what you said, the Five Holy Lands are so powerful that all the emperor-level sects in the world can't defeat any of them. Then their words are not imperial edicts. Who dares to violate them? Why do they still abide by this rule so much, even You don’t care about such a shameful thing as the Pavilion Master’s murder?”
"I don't know. The inside of the Five Holy Lands is too mysterious. The few people we know from the Five Holy Lands never reveal any information to the outside world. If you say more than a word, you will be killed. They will never show mercy!"
Huang Daozhang had more and more questions in his mind, but he did not show them. Judging from the performances of Li Wei and Yuan Cheng, they knew only a limited amount. What secrets were hidden in the five holy places?
"Okay, now let's talk about Brother Qi's parents!"
"We learned this news from Yu, and after doing some research, we can basically confirm that the person who killed your parents was Luo Bian, the leader of the Baicao Pirates Alliance."
"Baicao Pirates Alliance? Luobian?"
"Have you never heard of this sect?"
"Strictly speaking, the Baicao Pirates Alliance is not a sect, but a group of thieves. They are like a group of blood-sucking mosquitoes. Wherever there are treasures, they will rob them and never leave anyone alive!"
"What! It's so cruel, why don't the Five Holy Lands care?"
"They are very smart. They never go to dynasty countries to cause trouble, and there is nothing they want. They first send a few people to watch the good sects cause trouble, and then a fight breaks out, and then it turns into a fight in the world. The Five Holy Lands never care about the disputes between sects. resentment!"
"Then let other sects let them rob you?"
"I have said that they are very smart. They know very well who can and cannot be provoked. What's more, a sect can't even keep the top of the mountain, so why start a sect?"
"Is Jianghu so crippled?"
Some people died, but not completely...
