Chapter 649 The Halberd Man
The mountains are bright and beautiful, the forests are green and the wind is sparse.
The picturesque scenery during the day is slightly dim under the cover of night, but it still has its atmosphere. It is not like those gloomy places where ghosts cry and wolves howl at night.
On the contrary, this area has a rare clarity.
Donghuang Taiyi sat on a moss-covered boulder in the forest, his breath clear, surrounded by ferocious beasts such as tigers and leopards and birds of prey such as eagles and falcons.
These birds and beasts that could not coexist are now safe under the aura emanating from Donghuang Taiyi.
However, as a gust of wind blew by and there was a rustle in the wind, everything changed.
The tiger and leopard, who were originally like cats and dogs, opened their eyes, woke up from their peaceful sleep, and exposed their sharp teeth.
The raptor perched on the branch flapped its wings and made a sharp whistle.
Behind all this chaos, the leader of the Yin Yang family's aura was in chaos.
Donghuang Taiyi opened his eyes, raised his head, looked at the stars in the sky, and suddenly felt dizzy.
Ever since he was defeated in Lishan Mountain many years ago, the leader of the Yin Yang Family still has old wounds that have not healed yet. This injury was even more serious than when he fought Pang Nuan at Longmen Ferry.
Last time, Donghuang Taiyi had an opportunity while in seclusion. When he came out of seclusion, not only his injuries improved, but his cultivation also became more advanced.
But this time it was different, he was injured more seriously. The Yin Yang Family has also become unsafe, and the leader of the Yin Yang Family, Donghuang Taiyi, can only hide in all directions.
Over the past few days, I have taken a real pill, and my injury has improved a little.
There has been no progress in cultivation. After pondering over these years, Donghuang Taiyi has made special achievements in astrology.
Evil intention!
The aura was chaotic, affecting his mind. The figure of the leader of the Yin Yang family, who had been in trance, suddenly changed, becoming slightly rickety.
The state of mind has been lost. From the inside out, the originally pure aura is mixed with a hint of fierceness. The top masters in the world, even with only a slight evil intention, have already made the surrounding birds and beasts dare not stay any longer, and scatter in fear.
And as the birds and beasts dispersed, the leader of the Yin Yang Family on the blue stone also lost trace.
In just a moment, a shadow appeared in the darkness.
Xuanjian came to the bluestone and touched it slightly. The stone slab was very smooth, completely different from the moss-covered state around it. Apparently someone often meditated on this stone.
"It seems we are still a step late."
Xuanjian turned his head and looked behind him. Zhao Shuang came slowly.
"What an old fox. Just let this guy run away."
"With the cultivation of the master of the Yin Yang family, even if he leaves ten breaths early, he will be like a fish entering the sea, and it will be difficult to track."
If you want to hunt down such top experts, you can only succeed if you stick to it at all times.
"If we let this old guy get away this time, it will be difficult to find his traces next time."
"It will be quite troublesome if the Yin Yang Family leader's injury improves."
"Suffering from serious illness is difficult to heal. This old guy was beaten by the best masters in the world, and his cultivation was damaged. He also used forbidden techniques during the duel with me, which backfired. To heal the injuries on his body, in addition to the Immortal Gathering Pill, Apart from this level of elixirs, I am afraid that the only way to use it is to use Canglong Qisu, or the ancient secrets hidden in the illusion of the Western Region."
"Juxian Dan, Canglong Qisu, ancient secrets?"
No matter which one of these three things it is, it is a legendary existence.
Xuan Jian was noncommittal and didn't care about this legendary power.
"What should I do now? Continue tracking?"
"Continue to track, it will take a long time, and it is difficult to see the results. That's all!"
Zhao Shuang waved his hand and turned around.
"Father!"
In the mansion, Zhao Gao held a wine bottle in his hand. The scarlet wine in the cup was priceless, but Zhao Gao had no intention of taking a sip.
Dragon Lady was beside her. Zhao Gao had been like this since he returned from the palace that day, and he had been distracted all day long.
"Zhao Shuang! Zhao Shuang!"
Zhao Gao murmured this name as if he was resentful of a woman. Long Ji listened and lowered her head. Although she had complicated thoughts in her heart, the expression on her face was still indifferent, and even revealed a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Didn't the traitor Zhao Shuang go to Guandong to make trouble with Ji Wanggu? Now that the trap of this matter has been escaped, why is the foster father so worried?"
"You do not understand!"
Zhao Gao's face was gloomy, leaving only a soft sigh.
"In the past, I had the confidence to fight him no matter what. However, after this incident, I discovered that Zhao Shuang has always been ahead of me in everything."
Long Ji was standing by, facing the somewhat frustrated Zhao Gao, and felt a faint fear of the enemy in her heart.
Long Ji knows very well what kind of person Zhao Gao is. But now, even before the head-on confrontation, people like Zhao Gao already have the intention to retreat.
"Did the foster father retreat?"
Longji asked tentatively.
"If I say I'm retreating, you must be very disappointed!"
"My daughter doesn't dare!"
Zhao Gao smiled softly, with the corners of his mouth curved.
"If you want to kill Zhao Shuang, you must use the Emperor's Sword. It's a pity that this Emperor's Sword can't fall on his head now."
"Zhao Shuang has great achievements, a vast territory, and a lot of power. There is always a chance."
"The net has been infiltrating his fiefdom for so many years, but it is difficult to achieve results."
Longji has never been in a trap in so many years. Now when I heard Zhao Gao talk about it, I couldn't help but ask.
"Why?"
"Whether it's Nanzheng or Jincheng, most of the positions in the military, government agencies and other organizations are blood relatives of the clan. It's simply difficult for people who fall into the trap to get into its core. But now there is an additional opportunity."
"What do you mean by adoptive father?"
"As the territory expanded, Zhao Shuang absorbed many people from the Six Kingdoms into his fiefdom, and with the addition of people from the Mohist family, the power in his territory could no longer be the same as before, and it became very complicated. This also gave Snare opportunities.”
"But it's not easy."
Zhao Gao did not feel unhappy about Long Ji's words. In fact, he knew the difficulty better than Long Ji.
"Luo Wang doesn't know the situation of Zhao Shuang's fiefdom. I'm afraid not many people in this huge Guanzhong know about it. But now, there are no more people than before. There are many people in Xianyang City who want to find out Zhao Shuang's reality. They want to deal with it. There are many of his people in the world. The snare only needs to lie dormant quietly, and there will eventually be a chance."
Jinchengdi.
As Zhao Shuang's residence outside Longxi, this city is huge. In the past twenty years, a tall city wall has been built around the city, and many exquisite buildings have been added to the city.
In the absence of Zhao Shuang, Zhao Xin, who leads the Jincheng Cavalry, is the temporary manager here, along with Li Zuoche and Mo Ya.
Now, a young man came in front of them.
"Are you Han Xin?"
The young man looked very aloof and had a long sword on his back, which made him look extraordinary.
"That's right!"
"What position do you want to take here?"
"If it is the future, I can help you lead the army here. If it is now, I would like to be a halberd-bearing man."
The three people in the room were all surprised. This boy was so crazy that he knew no bounds.
Mo Ya looked at the boy in front of him, but he did not dare to look down upon him.
"In this case, you will enter the Xuanwu Guard first."
