Chapter 2161 Tongue

After being scolded, Xu Yi didn't get angry and left without saying a word.

He came to the front door of Guanglong Building across the street. The door was closed tightly. When he sensed it, it was dead quiet and empty inside.

Xu Yi suddenly felt bad.

…………

Cao Mengfu just pressed the doorknob with his hand, his shoulders sank, and a cold light dagger slipped from the cuff of his sleeve into his palm. He turned around calmly, before he could see the person clearly, and there was a polite and humble expression on his face all day long. The smile naturally appeared on the wrinkled old face.

When he saw the person clearly, his smile lines that had not yet completely relaxed suddenly froze, like a sudden extreme cold freezing a cicada in mid-jump.

"Ms. sir, why don't you... Wish you a happy guest."

A very pretty young woman wearing a hairpin and cloth skirt opened the door. She was slightly surprised, but she saluted the young man in blue shirt behind Cao Mengfu.

"Old Cao, wouldn't it be convenient for you to invite me in to sit down?"

The young man in green shirt said with a smile.

"Convenient and convenient, please please!"

Cao Mengfu's tongue was a little tangled.

After entering the door, there is a long and horizontal small courtyard. There are chickens and ducks in the courtyard pecking at the fresh leftovers and eating happily. Next to the door on the left is a tall old elm tree with a There was a stone table with a corner missing, and four chairs beside it. Behind the courtyard was the main house. There seemed to be a backyard behind the main house, and there were the sounds of children playing.

"Send some tea quickly!"

Cao Mengfu said anxiously.

"No need, let's just talk and let Madam go about her business."

The man in green shirt gave the order, Cao Mengfu agreed and hurriedly drove the cargo woman in.

As soon as the door of the main hall was closed, Cao Mengfu bowed and fell to the ground, saying in a trembling voice, "I am an incompetent old man who pays homage to the master of the hall."

Needless to say, the man in green shirt is Xu Yi.

When Xu Yi visited Guanglong and encountered a Buddhist monk, he immediately knew that something was wrong. The situation was unclear, and he was not in a position to use force blindly, so he hid not far from Guanglong Hall and waited for the opportunity. The main thing was to find someone, an acquaintance, to understand the situation.

When he entered the city, he saw the calendars hanging in the shops on the street and knew that it was only a year since he said goodbye to his ancestor, Yan Zi.

In such a short period of time, even if there are changes in Guanglong Hall, they will not be wiped out. There will always be dust leaking out from the gaps.

Sure enough, when he sensed the door of Guanglong Hall, he picked up some familiar scents. Among them, Cao Mengfu could make him remember his surname. He remembered that he was a very capable shopkeeper under Huang Zu. At that time Guanglongtang has already achieved a high position.

Xu Yi waited quietly. Finally, when Cao Mengfu left Guanglong Hall, he stopped him at the door of his house.

Xu Yi helped Cao Mengfu up and said gently, "You don't need to panic, just tell me what happened. Such a drastic change is beyond your ability to resist, it is surrender, and I don't blame you."

Cao Mengfu took a deep breath and bowed to Xu Yi, with tears streaming down his face.

The moment Xu Yi came to his door, he almost collapsed on the spot.

What kind of character and reputation does this old hall master have? If others don't know it, how can he not know it? He is a serious and ferocious man who kills people like crazy. He is also famous throughout Qingxing City.

Cao Mengfu was so excited that he thanked him repeatedly and refused to stand up. He told Xu Yi all over again the reason for not inviting him.

"The only thing to blame is that the former leader of the country, Zhao Tangyuan, who had been crushed to ashes, had a pair of blind people who could not tell the difference between loyalty and treachery. He was stupid enough to have the jade seal of the country taken away, and the foundation of the country was lost. As a result, all life was in ruins, and the world was in chaos. , it is really not a pity to die..."

At first, Cao Mengfu was a little reserved and timid, but later on, the more he spoke, the more indignant he became. His face was red, and his saliva sprayed on Xu Yi's clothes without realizing it.

Xu Yi did not expect that in just one year, such a big change would occur in Wufeng's country.

The thing sounds complicated, but it’s actually a mess.

The specific government structure of the Black Wind Kingdom is secular, but the ones who truly hold the divine power are the cultivators. The leader of the Black Wind Kingdom has been in power for more than fifty years. He is not only a veteran powerhouse in calamity, but also a member of a major cultivating sect. summit.

According to Cao Mengfu, all the kings of the past dynasties were the leaders of their sects. Only when their sects became extremely powerful did they become world leaders.

The so-called aspiration to become the world leader is just to obtain the jade seal of Zhengguo and be recognized by the Immortal Palace. Then one can become the leader of a country and control the major affairs of the country.

The current leader of the country, Zhao Tangyuan, has lost his country. According to what Cao Mengfu said, it is simply child's play. The person who captured the jade seal of Zhengguo was none other than Zhao Tangyuan's brother-in-law, Long Yuanshou, the leader of the Youchao clan.

Xu Yi had heard of You Chaozong, who was a famous sect in Wufeng country. According to Cao Mengfu, the growth of You Chaozong was basically caused by Zhao Tangyuan.

"If you get the jade seal of Zhengguo, you can become the master of a country and make many princes and ministers submit. What's the truth?"

Xu Yi still couldn't believe it, just a piece of jade seal, just a dead object, how could it have such great power.

Cao Mengfu said, "This is all because the Jade Seal of Zhengguo was awarded by the Immortal Palace. In various countries, the Immortal Palace has set up too many forbidden laws, and with the national seal, soldiers and horses can be borrowed from the Immortal Palace."

"Historically, 90% of the changes in the position of the king are due to abdication. This is the first time in hundreds of years that a king has had his seal taken away from him."

Xu Yi said, "Since he has obtained the national seal, doesn't Long Yuanshou automatically become the leader of the country? Why should we go to war? For example, Qingxing City has been so troubled."

Cao Mengfu said, "According to the system, there is a three-month window period for the transfer of the national seal. During this period, anyone who seizes the national seal can be established as the head of the country. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for the national seal to be transferred. There are rare records in history that the seal was transferred twice. Of course, it is necessary to be on guard against others. Now that Long Yuanshou has obtained the national seal and is about to command the world, it is natural that no accidents are allowed to happen, so the whole country is under martial law. And some big forces are willing Buy it from the new king, not to mention that during such a violent upheaval, it is a good opportunity to reshuffle the cards. There are constant attacks and killings in various places, and it is not surprising that the new blood covers the old blood."

Xu Yi said, "Who is occupying Guanglong Hall now? Who has the final say in the city."

Cao Mengfu said, "Now the forces in the city are divided into three families, Ru Yitang, Donghe League, and Ancient Sword Sect, but they are all under the command of Master Tong from Wang Ting's faction."

Xu Yi nodded, "Last question, where is Huang Zu? Where is Yan Zi?"

Cao Mengfu, who was kneeling on the ground but had raised his body, suddenly shrank into a ball and lay flat on the ground, like a wandering ghost who had been struck by thunder.

A cold light flashed in Xu Yi's eyes, he waved his hand, and a gentle force lifted Cao Mengfu up, "Just say, since I said I won't blame you, I will keep my word, but only if I hear the truth."

Cao Mengfu kowtowed like a chicken pecking rice, "That day, Rutang attacked our Guanglong Hall. Seeing that we could not defend it, Mr. Lu was planning to retreat. However, Miss Yan Zi returned from traveling at this time. Mr. Lu fought hard to protect Miss Yan Zi. , was seriously injured and refused to retreat. The enemy persuaded him to surrender several times, saying that as long as Mr. Lu handed over the inventory of Guanglongtang, he would be let go."
