Shenhou Mansion.
Dongfang Tai'a was wearing an ice-blue gown with sapphire blue silk thread embroidered with Tengyun auspicious patterns. Like a statue, he was standing motionless at the gate of Shenhou Mansion.
I don't know how much time passed, but when the footsteps came from the front, Dongfang Tai'a raised his head and looked towards the place where the footsteps came from. He could clearly see the Lord of Gods walking slowly.
Dongfang Tai'a took the initiative to greet him and said, "Mr. Dou."
The two words were "Hang Shengsheng restrained", but he did not say the last word, "Dou Changsheng's name".
After reorganizing his words, Dongfang Tai'a opened his mouth and said, "Master Dou, what is the purpose of inviting Master to come?"
Zhuge Wuwo raised his hand slightly, and then shook it once or twice. Dongfang Tai'a immediately understood, and slowly retracted his eyes. He had automatically scanned the four directions with his peripheral vision, and followed Zhuge Wuwo silently.
The Shenhou Mansion is not too far away from the Zhao Mansion. Both parties are located in Qinglongfang. Dongfang Tai'ako witnessed the lively banquet of gods and demons with his own eyes.
But even though Qinglongfang is so lively, the front of Shenhou Mansion is still deserted. No one dares to stand in front of the main entrance of Shenhou Mansion. Even if they are squeezed near Shenhou Mansion, everyone deliberately gives in. The door of Shenhou Mansion was opened.
They would rather be squeezed together, even start flying in the air, and take the initiative to be stepped on on the head, than come to the Shenhou Mansion. This scene was all watched by Dongfang Tai'a.
Hedong in thirty years, Hexi in thirty years.
It's been less than thirty years, and only a few years, and the situation has already changed drastically.
The junior who was not valued by him in the past has become a phenomenon in a short period of time. Not only did he take charge of the six gates, he successfully entered the cabinet and became the prime minister, he also successfully became the regent. Now the survival of the Shenhou Mansion depends on his thoughts. .
Dongfang Tai'a has not yet adapted to this sudden change.
Dongfang Tai'a walked to the Shenhou Mansion and closed the door of the Shenhou Mansion. Although he didn't see anyone peeking, he still had to be careful. He was so excited just now that he forgot the words "walls have ears." If he said something bad, , being accused in front of Dou Changsheng was a turmoil.
When Dou Changsheng came to visit, he should not have stopped at that time, but slapped Dou Changsheng to death. Now there are not so many things happening.
Dongfang Tai'a was angry, angry, unwilling, but also frightened. His heart was very complicated, especially as news kept spreading within the clan that he would be called back to the clan, actively separated from the Shenhou Mansion, or even necessary to join the Six Fans. door, to follow the arrangements of one of his clan brothers.
Dongfang Tai'a, his clan brother in the six sects, has never paid attention to him. He has limited potential. Being able to break through to the master level and serve as a divine catcher in the six sects is already a blessing earned in eight lifetimes.
The future of the Dongfang Clan still depends on itself. When the Six Sects lose their status as the Sixth Division and the Shenhou Mansion succeeds in taking over, the clan brother must honestly rely on him and become his teammate in the Shenhou Mansion.
This kind of idea is not only held by Dongfang Tai'a, but also by the Dongfang clan. That clan brother is completely paving the way for himself, making friends with six more masters of the six sects, so that he can lead the masters into the Shenhou Mansion in one day, and strengthen himself in the Shenhou Mansion. the right to speak.
But he never imagined that the situation would suddenly change, and his clan brother would get involved with Dou Changsheng, and both of them would go to Tianwaitian together. Because of Dou Changsheng's relationship, they could be said to be in a prosperous situation, plundering the wealth of Tianwaitian, and their strength would not be the same. Progress by leaps and bounds.
After returning to the capital of the gods, he was promoted to become a deputy palace master, and began to assist Dou Changsheng in taking charge of the six doors. Now he has great power. Because of his relationship with Dou Changsheng, he plays an important role in the six doors. If not for Dou Changsheng's request high.
The two vacant palace masters of the six gates all need to be first-level martial arts supreme masters. Now, my clan brother is probably already in the position and has become one of the four palace masters of the six gates.
In terms of strength, Dongfang Tai'a's eyes showed a gloomy look. His younger brother had already caught up, and he was also a second-level martial arts master. After all, he could squander resources at will.
It is enough to train three second-level martial arts masters, and he has it all to himself.
This is a strange thing if the strength does not improve by leaps and bounds. Even if it is replaced by a pig, it can still fly.
Dongfang Tai'a's heart was heavy. The direction of the clan had changed. He who had been mentioned so often had become a foil. People inside and outside the clan were talking about his younger brother, saying that his younger brother was the hope of the Dongfang clan.
The status of himself and his clan brothers has now been reversed. Now his mission in the Shenhou Mansion is to make more friends with the masters so that he can lead them to join the six sects together.
This is the best way. If it doesn't work, then take the initiative to break away from the Shenhou Mansion and return to the Dongfang Clan to serve as an elder, in charge of family affairs and no longer manage external affairs.
A mole on the corner of Dongfang Tai'a's eye trembled slightly. The pressure from the clan was getting bigger and bigger, and he didn't have much time to think.
Step by step, I walked to the courtyard and looked at the master sitting on the stone bench.
Zhuge Wuwo didn't wait for Dongfang Tai'a to ask, and directly took the initiative to speak: "Master Dou asked me to talk this time because I have something to ask for."
"When the banquet of gods and demons was held that day, the youngest member of the clan, Fairy Yunmeng Hua Changfang, was captured by thieves not long after she left the capital of gods. There is still no news about her, so Master Dou wants to ask me to investigate the case."
"If I agree, then Master Dou will let the cabinet convey the official order. At that time, the Shenhou Mansion can control the six gates, Dongchang, and Jinlingwei for a short period of time."
"Use all our efforts to investigate this disappearance case."
Dongfang Tai'a couldn't help but change his expression, and said in silence: "Dou Changsheng is finally going to attack our Shenhou Mansion."
What are you really afraid of?
The relationship between the Shenhou Mansion and the Six Sects is not harmonious. Ever since the day the Shenhou Mansion appeared, there has been a dispute with the Six Sects. Even if his master intends to control the fight, the powers overlap with each other, and when it comes to power issues, it is not If you want to restrain yourself, you can restrain yourself.
The simplest example is that if a murder case occurs, it should be handled by the Six Doors, but the Shenhou Mansion intervenes and the Shenhou Mansion takes over the case. The Six Doors naturally disagree because a case was taken away today. , tomorrow we can still seize the second case. If it goes on day by day, the six doors will become a decoration.
Even if the following people see that Liumen is weak and can be bullied, and finally go directly to the Shenhou Mansion, then how will Liumen deal with it? There are many problems in this series, and the conflicts between the two sides are growing day by day, and they are beginning to accumulate little by little. As the years progressed, the contradictions became irreconcilable.
Originally, the Shenhou Mansion was so powerful that it could vaguely overshadow the six gates. But in the end, the situation changed and the situation once again tilted towards the six gates.
For Dou Changsheng, among his many identities, Grand Master only has honor and does not have specific authority. Regent is also a bit broader. The truly meaningful official position is the head of the six sects.
The six gates are Dou Changsheng's basic base and the main force supporting Dou Changsheng's regency.
After Dou Changsheng came to power, he immediately attacked the Shenhou Mansion. This was not surprising at all. After all, the Shenhou Mansion had threatened the six gates. Why not just get rid of the Shenhou Mansion and still keep this threat?
Dongfang Tai'a showed an anxious look, kept walking back and forth, and said in a deep voice: "Master."
"You must never agree."
"The identity of Fairy Yunmeng Hua Changfang was exposed before the feast of gods and demons. Although most people in the world don't know, everyone who should know already knows."
"For example, the Gao family of Bohai and the Bai family of Yingzhou, in order to win Hua Changfang's heart, they kept fighting. The two sides fought so fiercely that the Bai family of Yingzhou and the Gao family of Bohai also had constant conflicts."
"So whoever dares to attack Hua Changfang must be a big deal. Obviously Dou Changsheng also knows about this, so he directly handed over this difficult case to the master."
Dongfang Tai'a stretched out his hand and patted his arm, and said loudly: "Dou Changsheng is trying to use Master as a gun."
"Being involved in this matter, every step of the crisis has turned out to be a happy outcome for everyone. If the master fails, Dou Changsheng will have reason to depose the Shenhou Mansion, or even convict the master."
"Master can survive the murderer, but he can't escape Dou Changsheng's reckoning. Nothing can be done about this matter."
Zhuge Wuwo picked up the tea on the stone table, took a sip and said, "Don't agree?"
"Do you think it will work?"
These simple words suddenly silenced Dongfang Tai'a, and his spirit became as sluggish as a deflated rubber ball.
People are knives and servants, and I am fish and meat.
Once Dou Changsheng said this, there was no room for rejection.
It's a request, but it's actually an order.
Zhuge Wuwo put down the tea cup in his hand and said with a solemn expression: "This investigation, there is a hidden secret behind it, it must be no small matter."
"So this time I will investigate the case myself, and you senior brothers should not get involved."
"No."
"You brothers, it's better to leave the divine capital first and avoid the limelight."
"If I really have some Tongtian background, I will naturally not be afraid based on my strength, but you can't."
"If you know something, and it ends up being targeted by the murderer behind the scenes, you won't be able to handle it."
Dongfang Tai'a looked at Zhuge Wuwo with a complicated expression and said with concern: "Master."
"The late emperor is dead. Why are you still staying here in the imperial court? Why don't you hang up your seal and leave. With your master's first-class martial arts skills and the strength of a supreme master, you can't go anywhere in the world."
"No matter where you go, Master is also a distinguished guest, and the Zhuge family is one of the eighteen families and is also a famous family in the world. It is also a good thing to go back home to take care of family affairs, train the younger generation of the Zhuge family, and take care of themselves."
"There is always a lack of wealth, and the situation here in the capital of God is chaotic. Now Dou Changsheng seems to have unlimited prosperity, but who knows what the future will bring?"
"Dou Changsheng loves to take risks, and he always takes a big gamble to bet on the glimmer of hope. Now he is victorious in every battle, but as long as he loses once, he will be defeated and there will be no room for recovery."
"Dou Changsheng is too gambling, and his future is not worth looking forward to."
"Unless Dou Changsheng starts to calm down and act steadily from now on, but if this is the case, Dou Changsheng will become mediocre and will never have the momentum he has now, especially since the situation is easy to change, and the nature is hard to change."
"Dou Changsheng has become accustomed to taking risks to gain fame and wealth and become rich overnight. It is no longer possible for him to cultivate steadily and accumulate wealth."
"Even if Master has other ideas, he can temporarily go back to the Zhuge family to hibernate and wait for a while."
Dongfang Tai'a was silent for a moment, then continued to speak: "With Dou Changsheng's ability, within ten years he will either be defeated and die, or he will have attacked the gods and demons."
“I dare not say that it will be 100% possible in ten years, but it will definitely be possible in thirty years.”
"If it doesn't happen within thirty years, I'm afraid I'll die."
"So Master doesn't have to wait too long to return. He can come out again in thirty years."
"And it hasn't been too long since Master broke through to the first level of martial arts. It was okay when the late emperor was there. There was always a resource allocation in the palace. These resources are all rare treasures. They are of great help to the first level of martial arts cultivation. But since After the death of the late emperor, this resource was stopped by the imperial court.”
"It will take three to five years for the master to break through to the second level of martial arts and manifest his will, let alone the third level to unite heaven and man. Returning to the Zhuge clan to practice is not only waiting for the right time, but also accumulating strength."
After Dongfang Tai'a finished speaking, Zhuge Wuwo looked moved. Dongfang Tai'a's words were spoken from the bottom of his heart. He who was not a close relative would never say such words.
Zhuge Wuwo sighed and said: "What you said is a lesson in planning for the country."
"There's nothing wrong with that."
"We are not Taishi Dou, so we don't need to take risks in everything."
"Grandmaster Dou seems to be prominent now, but everything was gained by risking one's life. Look at each one, one by one. There is no one thing that was not earned by risking one's life."
"No god or demon is weak, and Dou Changsheng has experienced so many incidents of gods and demons. It can be said that he is dancing on the edge of a knife. Now he has achieved this, and has become the most powerful person in the world in just a few years. I don't have it." Half jealous because I know I can’t do it.”
"No, not just me, not anyone in the world."
"If you make one wrong move, you will lose everything and die without a burial place. How many people dare to do this?"
"We naturally have to be prudent. The best choice is to go back and hibernate for thirty years. By then, we will break through to the third level of martial arts, where heaven and man are one, and our strength will have reached the pinnacle of the world."
"But this is a good way."
"But time waits for me."
"Nowadays, the world is in a great struggle. If the Jiazi Rebellion breaks out, then this choice is correct. The appearance of the Star Tower will herald the great changes in the world. It will only be within this ten years. It will reach its peak in about twenty years. Three The decade is basically over.”
"When the new dynasty is established and the world is at peace, if I leave the mountain again, although I will still maintain a high position, will my status be as prominent as it is today?"
"I'm afraid not necessarily."
"One carrot and one pit. The new dynasty is opening up. It is the time when the stars are shining brightly. Everyone in the dynasty can see who is not a talented king and an able minister, and every one of them has taken away a lot of vitality."
"They have all made great achievements. There is no possibility of a new person taking over. If we choose a wise master, the hope is too slim."
"Only the one who wins the final victory is the true dragon. No matter how powerful the others are, they may be defeated."
"After all, unless you are willing to die in your hometown, if you want to compete, you cannot retreat at this moment. Instead of retreating, you must fight bravely to be the first."
"Even the great ancestors of the new dynasty and the founding prime ministers of the new dynasty. They have not yet made a fortune at this moment. In the future, they will be the most famous and invincible generals in the world. Now they may not be able to serve as officers, and their strength is not even that of a grandmaster."
"If there is no chaos in the Great Zhou Dynasty, they have never prospered. They have no one to support them and cannot bloom their glory. And this is my advantage."
"I have stood at the top of the Great Zhou Dynasty and have the power. If I don't take advantage of this advantage and instead retreat and leave, wouldn't I be stupid or a fool?"
"This time the Dark King proves his truth, the direction of the world has changed."
"You see, the Dark King is getting old and has only a few years left in his life. But he succeeded in attacking the destiny in the end because he has accepted a good disciple."
"The Shenhou Mansion and the Six Gates are not on good terms, but why continue to fight?"
"Wouldn't it be better to just become a family?"
Dongfang Tai'a was shocked when he heard this sentence and said: "Master means."
"Our Shenhou Mansion will be merged into the six gates?"
Zhuge Wuwo nodded and said: "Not bad."
"Now my strength is still too weak. If there was a Jiazi Rebellion, there would still be a Jiuzi time. This time is very abundant. With the support of the saint's resources, I can break through to the third level of martial arts, the unity of heaven and man. There is no problem. "
"A period of time is enough for me to raise my strength to its mortal peak."
"But now it's no longer possible. It's not been many years since the world was in chaos. Not only strong men have emerged in large numbers, but also magical weapons have been born one after another. These are all signs of the world's chaos."
"Because of the luck of the Three Dynasties, the competition this time is very terrifying, and the strength of the first-level martial arts is no longer enough."
"Thinking about the great destiny again, this is a foolish dream and unrealistic thing. At present, we need to rely on Master Dou to obtain resources to enhance our strength, and first cultivate to the third level of the first-level martial arts to unite heaven and man."
"When the world changes, we will have enough energy to cope with it."
"So this time the case must be handled, and it must be handled beautifully."
"I plan to take the risk to fight for the opportunity to achieve enlightenment. You brothers are weak. There is no hope in this hundred years. In the next hundred years, the world will be peaceful."
"It's best for you to gain power in the new dynasty. You don't need to choose the True Dragon. You just need to surrender to the True Dragon when the trend has been determined. Although you are newcomers and have less power than the founding generals, this is how they succeed and how they fail."
"Each of you has contributed too much, and there is nothing that the prince can suppress. Therefore, if you take refuge in the prince, you will definitely be relied on by the prince as his confidant. In the future, when the prince ascends the throne, you will naturally rise."
"Use this as a springboard to try to fulfill your destiny."
"You brothers, please go back. Each of you can go back to your hometown to practice and wait for the opportunity to serve in the new dynasty."
"You'd better not go back to the clan. Your clan has gotten too close to Master Dou recently. If you make a mistake and are liquidated in the future, it will be difficult for you to escape. It is better to leave from the beginning. If the Dongfang clan becomes prominent in the future, even if you are powerful If you can't make progress, but you are a second-grade martial arts grandmaster, the Dongfang family will not give up, and you will definitely need the guard of honor as a boost."
"I have always hated this kind of opportunistic approach."
"But I still can't bear you to step into the pit of fire."
"With your temperament, you will definitely not be willing to condescend to your younger brothers after returning to the Dongfang Family."
"I don't know when it will cause big trouble."
"It's better to avoid it and wait until the new dynasty comes again. Even if there is a disaster, the world will be peaceful. A second-level martial arts, or even a first-level martial arts, is extremely important. As long as you are willing to serve the court, the court will not kill you. your."
Dongfang Tai'a doesn't care about being inferior to others.
But one person definitely can’t do it.
After Dongfang Tai'a walked out of Shenhou Mansion, he walked straight towards Zhao Mansion.
Zhuge Wuwo's eyes were extremely cold at this moment, and his whole body was filled with a chill.
A mocking voice sounded: "You are such an ignorant white-eyed wolf."
"It's not even covered up at all."
"But this has nothing to do with the overall situation. The person has been successfully robbed. As expected, Dou Changsheng chose to use you to investigate the case."
"The next step is to frame it to Haotian Sect."
"Now that Dou Changsheng is in serious trouble, only the Haotian Sect can deal with it."
"Even if the Haotian Sect cannot deal with it, it is enough to contain Dou Changsheng and not give him a chance to attack the right way."
"The survival or death of the right path depends on the Lord God."
"please."
