Mu Tao Renhu asked: "Aren't you the master of Prince Pingnan? How can you still influence the emperor?"
Ye Gucheng said: "Just let Prince Pingnan be the emperor."
Mu Taoren was shocked. Ye Gucheng was so bold. He was still thinking about Wudang, a martial arts sect, but he was thinking about changing dynasties. It was obvious that he was telling himself this in exchange for helping Prince Pingnan usurp the throne in exchange for becoming the leader of Wudang. If I don't agree, I'm afraid I will also lose the opportunity to take charge of Wudang.
Mu Taoist asked: "How dare you tell me such a thing?"
Ye Gucheng asked: "Why don't you dare?"
Mu Taoist asked: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell you?"
Ye Gucheng said: "What can you gain by snitching? If you were a snitch, you wouldn't have to set up Ghost Villa."
Mu Daoren said: "I am planning for Wudang, and you are planning for the country. Aren't you afraid that I will impose conditions?"
Ye Gucheng said: "I have already laid out the conditions. I am giving you a chance. Without you, the result will not change. But without me, can you succeed?"
Mu Taoren smiled bitterly: "It seems that I don't even have a chance to refuse."
Ye Gucheng said: "Of course, I said I won't threaten you, you can refuse. And I promise not to reveal your plan to others."
Ye Gucheng's words are certainly credible. Mu Taoren does not think that Ye Gucheng is a deceitful person. But even if Ye Gucheng didn't say anything, he no longer had confidence.
Ye Gucheng's information was too accurate. How did he know it? If he knows it, others can know it too. The problem is that I can't figure out how the news was leaked.
Mu Daoren said: "I agree."
Ye Gucheng said: "Wise choice. Won't you invite me to your Ghost Villa?"
Ghost Villa is isolated from the world, and only Mu Taoist can control it all. Many people can be used by him, and even Ye Gucheng can't figure out why. This is why Ye Gucheng admires him.
Mu Taoren put down his disguise in front of Ye Gucheng and still covered his face in Ghost Villa.
In this quiet valley, the people here are really like ghosts, never revealing their true colors.
Ye Gucheng said: "You really found a good place. I like this kind of silence."
Mu Daoren said: "The people here are all people who have died once, so of course they cannot go to noisy places."
Ye Gucheng said: "So I say Wudang's biggest loss is that it doesn't choose you as its leader."
Mu Daoren said: "It's a pity that I violated the sect's rules."
No matter how much hatred and unwillingness the Mu Taoist felt, he couldn't tell it at all in his tone.
Ye Gucheng said: "It's just a political struggle. Your master refuses to hide it for you. It's precisely because your talent is so high that Master Mei can control it better than you. Master Mei has never violated the sect rules? This kind of sect rule is originally to regulate ordinary people." If you can commit a disciple's mistake, then anyone with a similar status to you can also commit it. The same is true for Shi He. If everyone has to abide by these rules, why do you have to be the leader? Isn't it just to climb up? Is it okay to break these rules?”
Mu Taoren was stunned, he had never thought of it this way. He has always been unwilling to accept himself, but he has never doubted his master and Master Mei. ….
Mu Taoist asked: "Are you saying that Senior Brother Mei also violated the lust warning?"
If Ye Gucheng knows his secret, does he also know Mei Zhenren's secret?
Ye Gucheng said: "I don't know, your sect rules are not just about lust and caution. There are so many sect rules, I don't believe that a person with the greatest power can abide by every one of them."
Mu Taoist's strategy cannot get rid of the thinking mode of Jianghu people, but Ye Gucheng has experienced several lives, and is at home in rivers, lakes, and temples. He has seen the darkness of human nature, which is far beyond what Mu Taoist can compare with.
Mu Taoren's brain began to spin rapidly, thinking about how to defeat Shi Yan, the current leader of Wudang.
Ye Gucheng said: "You don't have to worry about these things. What you are competing against is whose power is greater, not who has made smaller mistakes."
Mu Taoren looked at Ye Gucheng. He really couldn't see through this man.
The more we talked, the more blurry it became. All of his ways of thinking are different from those of ordinary Jianghu people, more like professional politicians.
Mu Tao Ren no longer discussed these things with Ye Gucheng. The more they discussed, the more he felt like a novice, which made Mu Tao Ren, who was always known for his resourcefulness, less confident.
Mu Taoren then began to praise Ye Gucheng's martial arts, saying: "Ye City Lord's martial arts opened the eyes of the old Taoist. It is simply unheard of. Dugu Yihe's death at the hands of the City Lord was not unjust. He deserved his death."
The tone was sincere, and Ye Gucheng smiled slightly.
Ye Gucheng is not a person who cares about other people's opinions, but being recognized by Mu Taoist is still something to be happy about in this world.
Mu Taoren continued: "In the past, I only knew that the city lord's swordsmanship was unparalleled in the world. The old Taoist had long been ashamed of himself. I didn't expect that today I would be injured by the city lord's fist and kick skills."
After saying this, he still shook his head and sighed.
Ye Gucheng's expression was solemn. He was Ye Gucheng. How could the unparalleled swordsman in the world defeat Taoist Mu with martial arts other than swords?
Mu Taoren was stunned when he saw Ye Gucheng's expression. He didn't know what he said was wrong. Although he was flattering, he also meant it from the bottom of his heart.
"Cang Rang" a dragon roared, and Ye Gucheng suddenly pulled out his sword. The sword light was flying in the sky, and Mu Taoist's eyes widened.
Is this the legendary "Flying Fairy from Heaven"?
A sword came from the west, and the white light in the sunset made Taoist Mu close his eyes slightly. When he opened his eyes again, the tip of the sword was already at his throat.
Ye Gucheng asked: "How about my sword?"
Mu Taoist said sincerely: "There is no peer in the world."
Ye Gucheng asked: "Can you block this sword?"
Mu Daoren said: "No."
Ye Gucheng asked: "I heard that you and Lu Xiaofeng are good friends. His telepathic finger can clamp all the swords in the world. Can he clamp my sword?"
Mu Taoist was silent for a long time and said, "I don't know."
He didn't say "can't", but "I don't know". This was not the result Ye Gucheng wanted.
Ye Gucheng returned the sword to its sheath and left Ghost Villa.
Mu Taoren looked at Ye Gucheng's back in shock. He was a man who was extremely obsessed with swords, but he could see through all the sophistication of the world. The combination of these characteristics in one person seems extremely inconsistent.
When he returned to the palace, he received shocking news: the treasure house of the palace was stolen, and the general manager Jiang Chongwei was blinded.
Prince Pingnan and his son knew that Ye Gucheng was back and hurriedly came to see him, not daring to waste a moment. ….
The heavily guarded and airtight treasure house could be stolen. Prince Pingnan and his son didn't care what valuable things they lost. The main thing was that the palace still had many secrets. If these secrets were leaked, it would be a disaster.
The prince said, "Master, could it be that our affairs have been exposed?"
Ye Gucheng said: "Is there anything unusual?"
King Pingnan shook his head and said, "I didn't find anything unusual."
Ye Gucheng said: "Don't scare yourself. Our matter is still in the preparation stage. Even if there are any loopholes, it will not be linked to the rebellion. Just treat it as an ordinary theft case. Don't make any moves now."
The prince smiled bitterly and said: "How can it be an ordinary theft? This is Pingnan Prince's Mansion. The manager is blind. Six Doors invited Jin Jiuling. Jin Jiuling is known as the Six Doors' top master in three hundred years." The best arrester in the world is afraid that he will find out something else when he investigates the theft case."
Pull out the carrot and bring out the mud. You must come to the palace to investigate this case. If it weren't for the fear of arousing suspicion, King Pingnan would have really wanted to press this case down, stop the investigation, and admit that something precious was missing.
Ye Gucheng said: "As long as everything is normal, be normal and don't take it seriously."
The Embroidery Thief is the most sensational event in the martial arts world at the moment. The amount of money involved and the number of masters involved are unprecedented.
Gongsun Lan came to Ye Gucheng, and Huo Xiu was also traveling with him.
Ye Gucheng was not surprised to see Huo Xiu, but he was surprised to see that Huo Xiu was in good spirits and not as depressed as he thought.
Ye Gucheng said: "I thought your condition would be
Very poor. "
Huo Xiu asked: "Why?"
Ye Gucheng said: "No matter who has been imprisoned for so long, they will despair when they see their wealth being extorted every day."
Huo Xiu said: "I can't."
Ye Gucheng asked: "Why?"
Huo Xiu said: "I know you will definitely save me, and the money that was extorted is really not worth mentioning to me."
Ye Gucheng said in surprise: "How could you expect that I would save you?"
Huo Xiu said: "You know too many things that you shouldn't know, and you say too many things that you shouldn't say. You care about this matter very much, and you know too much. At first, I didn't understand what you meant. , but it all came true in the end. You won’t watch me being trapped forever, you will save me.”
Ye Gucheng didn't expect that he could calm down Huo Xiu, and said: "It seems that friends are not reliable. Lu Xiaofeng did not show mercy just because you are friends."
Huo Xiu said: "I have no mercy either."
Huo Xiu didn't want to dwell on this issue, but asked Ye Gucheng: "What should I do for you?"
Businessmen know that there is no free lunch. Ye Gucheng saved himself and it was time for him to fulfill his promise.
Ye Gucheng said: "There is nothing for you to do now. Have you heard about the case of the embroidery thief?"
Huo Xiu said, "I heard about it on the way here."
Ye Gucheng said: "Lu Xiaofeng will also participate. If you like it, it will be a pity to continue fighting with him."
Huo Xiu asked, "What does this have to do with Lu Xiaofeng?"
Ye Gucheng said: "With Lu Xiaofeng's character, he will be involved in all the lively events in the martial arts world, and it does not necessarily have to be related to him."
Huo Xiu said: "It's exactly what you said. Jin Jiuling is the junior disciple of Master Balsam Gua, and Master Balsam Gua and Lu Xiaofeng are friends. Masters like Balsam Gua and Mu Tao Ren like Lu Xiaofeng very much."
Ye Gucheng asked: "You are also an outsider, do you still like Lu Xiaofeng now?"
Huo Xiu said: "I like it. I lost because of a single move. I have no personal grudges with him. His character is really likable."
