Early the next morning, Zhao Mingyuan walked across the Tianjin Bridge and came to Dong's Restaurant at the head of Tianjin Bridge to have breakfast, as if nothing had happened.
As soon as he entered the restaurant, Zhao Mingyuan felt more than ten eyes falling on him at the same time, and a lively atmosphere rushed towards him.
The restaurant is beautifully decorated, with mahogany furniture exuding a faint aroma, and the walls covered with exquisite calligraphy and paintings, giving it an elegant feel.
The restaurant was packed with people as usual, and the atmosphere was noisy and lively. Half of them were business travelers and people from all over the world.
The people who came to look at Zhao Mingyuan were all surprised, and they were whispering to the friends next to them. Some girls were even ogling him.
Zhao Mingyuan knew that he must have shown his skill in Manqing Courtyard last night and easily killed Fei Ying Qu Ao, suddenly making him the most eye-catching figure in Luoyang.
Some people showed expressions of admiration because they had heard about Zhao Mingyuan's swordsmanship.
Others had fearful eyes because they knew that Zhao Mingyuan's martial arts was extraordinary.
The guests in the restaurant fell silent in unison, as if waiting for Zhao Mingyuan to show his strength.
The waiter also put down his work, not daring to neglect at all, and carefully received this highly skilled guest.
Zhao Mingyuan looked at the people around him and smiled slightly, not caring about their gazes.
He went straight to an empty seat by the window on the second floor and sat down. He took out a silver coin and put it on the table, indicating that he wanted a pot of the best wine and a few signature dishes.
Seeing how confident he was, everyone couldn't help but admire him even more.
The atmosphere in the restaurant became lively again, and everyone began to talk about Zhao Mingyuan's swordsmanship and martial arts.
Some people lamented the power of his swordsmanship, some wanted to ask him to teach him a move or two, and some were secretly wary in private and decided not to become his enemy.
In this restaurant, Zhao Mingyuan became the focus of everyone's attention, and his presence filled the entire venue with an atmosphere of tension and anticipation.
Whether it was admiration, fear or curiosity, everyone's attitude towards him was obvious and complicated.
Under the bright sunshine, people and cars were passing by on the Tianjin Bridge, while ships were shuttled back and forth on the Luoshui River flowing under the bridge. It was a bustling scene of a big city on both land and water.
Zhao Mingyuan was enjoying the scenery while eating, but before he could fill his stomach, he sensed someone coming behind him.
His steps were light and he was obviously possessed of a high-level light skill, and he was heading straight towards him.
Fortunately, Zhao Mingyuan didn't feel any malice in the visitor, and even felt a familiar feeling.
Before he could identify his identity carefully, he felt a scent of fragrant wind coming, and then someone sat next to him. Her pretty face, like a flower and a jade, had already revealed her identity. She was none other than the "Pretty Military Advisor" Shen Luoyan.
"Are you still in the mood to eat leisurely here? Why don't you run away quickly?" Shen Luoyan's words were surprising.
Zhao Mingyuan still stuffed things into his mouth unhurriedly, and was not frightened by Shen Luoyan's alarmist talk.
It is indeed the most prosperous restaurant in Luoyang. Although it does not have all kinds of modern condiments, it still has a unique flavor. Even though Zhao Mingyuan has tasted Lu Miaozi's craftsmanship many times, he still finds it very delicious.
Seeing this, although Shen Luoyan was rarely angry, he still lowered his voice and said: "Stop pretending, if others don't know, I can't guess it! Only you can do such a thing."
Shen Luoyan came here to inform him of the latest news.
In fact, the news that He's Bi was taken away from Jing Nian Temple late last night had already spread wildly among various forces.
Early this morning, news came out from Buddhism, confirming that He's Bi was indeed stolen last night.
The reason why Shen Luoyan came to report to him in a hurry was because Buddhism actually believed that the person who stole He's Bi was him.
How can this be?
Zhao Mingyuan had already changed his body shape before taking action last night, and was still wearing night clothes. He had never even revealed the martial arts he used. How could the Buddhists recognize him?
Unless, Buddhism has no evidence at all and just wants to pin this matter on his head.
Sure enough, facing Zhao Mingyuan's denial, Shen Luoyan looked at him with complicated eyes and said: "Since I can guess it, naturally others can guess it.
After all, there are not many people who can do such a thing, and there are even fewer people who have such courage.
Of course, thanks to your deception last night, many people didn't believe it.
However, even if you don't believe it in your heart, it is in everyone's interest. Therefore, all parties agreed unanimously, and even expressed their intention to help Buddhism to put pressure on you.
What's more, this matter was confirmed by none other than the Fairy Master Fei Xuan of Cihang Jingzhai herself.
No one knows what evidence she has, but she has convinced Master Liao Kong of Jing Nian Zen Academy that it was you who did it. "
Seeing Zhao Mingyuan's face solemn, Shen Luoyan continued: "Early this morning, Buddhism sent out a message asking you to return the He's Bi to Jingnian Temple immediately.
Otherwise, I will be rude to you.
well! You'd better return He's Bi to Buddhism! "
Zhao Mingyuan immediately understood that from Shi Feixuan's point of view, it didn't matter whose hands the He's Bi was, but taking the opportunity to get rid of Zhao Mingyuan was more important.
So cruel!
Today, Zhao Mingyuan is truly pushed to the forefront and is the enemy of the whole world.
Naturally, the Buddhists couldn't produce any evidence that Zhao Mingyuan had stolen He's Bi, so they simply acted like a gangster and forced the label to be placed on Zhao Mingyuan's head. It was even said that Zhao Mingyuan had premeditated evil and his actions endangered the safety of the world, so he came to deal with him.
Therefore, those good friends who had a good time with Zhao Mingyuan yesterday have united with the Buddhists to deal with him today.
Naturally, he thought that Zhao Mingyuan had offended Buddhism and was hopeless, so he dared to add insult to injury.
Moreover, in the Buddhist propaganda, Zhao Mingyuan has now obtained both He's Bi and Yang Gong's treasury.
"If you get one of Yang Gong's treasure house and He's jade, you can conquer the world."
This prophecy has been passed down to this day and has long been deeply rooted in people's hearts.
But now, these two things are in Zhao Mingyuan, what does this make the world think?
This is the so-called "name should be prophesied".
Of course, it can be a prophecy, but the pros and cons are difficult to understand.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there were prophecies that left their names in history.
That is, a nursery rhyme called "Peach and Plum" has been widely circulated among the people.
The content is, "Peach plums, floods surround Yangshan. Peach plums, Mo Langyu, yellow swans fly around the mountain, wandering in the garden."
To put it simply, the general idea is that "the Sui and Yang Dynasties will perish, and Li will be the emperor."
Because of this prophecy, many dignitaries surnamed Li in the world were destroyed by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty.
Li Yuan was well aware of Yang Guang's distrust of him, so he reduced Yang Guang's suspicion and vigilance by pretending to be drunk and sleeping around, and survived by chance.
Li Mi participated in the uprising launched by Yang Xuangan and was captured by the Sui army after the uprising failed. He later took the opportunity to escape and later joined Zhai Rang's Wagang Army.
According to the original historical trend, whether it was the rise of Li Mi or the Li clan's final victory in the world, many of them were due to this prophecy.
There are countless prophecies in history. In the eyes of the people, isn't this a kind of destiny?
Now, Zhao Mingyuan, who has the two most precious treasures of He's Bi and Yang Gong's treasure house, is the God to whom destiny belongs in the eyes of the world.
Isn't this a kind of popular sentiment?
If Zhao Mingyuan is allowed to develop like this, there will be no way out for others. The other princes are all waiting for death.
Will they watch Zhao Mingyuan grow stronger step by step, defeating each one, until he conquers the world?
Of course it’s impossible!
It would be better to strike first and get rid of Zhao Mingyuan first.
As a result, all the forces naturally put aside their differences for the time being and worked together to deal with Zhao Mingyuan first.
This is also because a group of princes have clearly seen Buddhism's position.
It seems that Buddhism is publicizing that the two most precious treasures, He's Bi and Yang Gong's treasure house, have fallen into the hands of Zhao Mingyuan, and seems to be building momentum for Zhao Mingyuan.
But is this really the case?
Would Buddhism be so kind and help Zhao Mingyuan win over the people?
of course not!
On the contrary, Buddhism made the announcement in advance to let the common people take the lead and tell the world that the Heshi Bi in Zhao Mingyuan's hands was not in the correct position, but was stolen, and was not the true destiny of God.
He even asked Zhao Mingyuan to hand over He's Bi as proof.
After all, how can any true God of destiny give up his destiny treasure to others?
Obviously, various princes believed that Zhao Mingyuan had offended Buddhism and had no chance of winning the world, so they dared to deal with him.
After all, the law does not punish everyone. If everyone comes, then it doesn't matter. There is no need to worry about offending Zhao Mingyuan.
Even if Zhao Mingyuan escaped by chance and wanted revenge, he would naturally go to Fomen, the big brother who took the lead.
Of course, everyone thinks that Zhao Mingyuan will never be able to escape this dragnet.
Everyone knows how cruel Buddhism is.
The original evil king Shi Zhixuan was chased to the sky by the four great saint monks and Ning Daoqi. Later, he hid in Shu for more than ten years before the Buddhist sect stopped pursuing him.
Although the strength shown in yesterday's battle between Zhao Mingyuan and Qu Ao was definitely not weak, no one believed that Zhao Mingyuan could escape the Buddhist encirclement and suppression.
Therefore, everyone dared to add insult to injury together and prepared to eliminate Zhao Mingyuan, a powerful enemy.
Although Fomen took action against himself so quickly, the efficiency was incredibly high. But Zhao Mingyuan had already anticipated this before coming to Luoyang, and now it is just a little ahead of schedule.
Therefore, Zhao Mingyuan did not panic, but asked Shen Luoyan: "Then how is Li Mi preparing for this?"
Shen Luoyan couldn't help but look embarrassed, but said: "We are both from Wagang Village, and Mi Gong is naturally on your side. I hope Wagang Village can eventually win the world."
Zhao Mingyuan smiled and said: "Luoyan, do you believe this?"
Shen Luoyan's face dimmed, and she whispered after a long time: "Whether you believe it or not, at least I hope you will be fine. Otherwise, you should hide and leave Luoyang quietly."
