That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 863

Although the army of the State of Wei had already approached the city of Jiangdu, Xiao Jin was not always in the tent of the Chinese army outside the city of Jiangdu. Since mid-September, he had already returned to the Wanshi Garden on Jundao.

Today's Jundao Wanshi Garden has become Xiao Jin's residence. After the war, Wanshi Garden was temporarily repaired. Although it is no longer as prosperous as it was at the beginning, it is not in a mess.

As Xiao Jin walked, he couldn't help thinking of many old events. Back then, the shepherd led the Northeast Army to the capital city of Zhongdu, and the Northwest Army's main force was restrained in the Jiangnan battlefield. It was he who was ordered to go to Jiangnan in a crisis This Wanshi Garden persuaded Lu Qian to retreat, allowing the Northwest Army to return to the Northwest and defeat the Shepherd.

Xiao Jin can proudly say that if there was no Xiao Jin and Xiao Huaiyu back then, the world today might not belong to the Xiao family, and it might even belong to someone else.

Why can't he, a hero who has made great contributions, not sit on the world?
Why is Xiao Xuan, a penniless kid, sitting in the world?
There is no such thing.

With deep eyes, Xiao Jin came to a side hall, opened the door and entered.

The side hall was dim, and a man in sword suit was kneeling on the cold floor, with his hands crossed behind his back, as if bound by an invisible air mechanism, unable to move.

Xiao Jin walked to the main seat and sat down, waving to the left and right to back off.

At this time, there were only three people left in the side hall, Xiao Jin, the bound man, and a monk who looked like a golden Buddha.

This monk was dressed very differently from the Central Plains monks, half of his arms were bare, and he was covered in golden light, like a gold-plated Buddha statue in a temple.

As for the man bound by the invisible air mechanism, he was a disciple of the Sword Sect.

At the moment when Xiao Jin was besieging the city, the East Lake Courtyard located outside Jiangdu City was still a detached and quiet place. One was because of the remote location of the East Lake Courtyard, and the other was because after Xiao Jin’s army set foot outside Jiangdu City, Jianzong So they mobilized a large number of people to station here, and dare not say that they can fight against the rolling army with their own strength, but they are just self-protecting and sticking to it, but there is no danger.

Xiao Jin's plans for the entire Jiangnan, a small Donghu Bieyuan, did not have much impact on the situation in the south of the Yangtze River. Under the situation that the Ghost King's Palace was repeatedly frustrated, Xiao Jin did not take any action to threaten the Donghu Bieyuan, and even the East Lake Bieyuan and the Donghu Bieyuan were separated. Xiao Jin also turned a blind eye to certain connections in Jiangdu City.

After entering mid-September, the connection between Jiangdu City and East Lake Bieyuan suddenly became closer. Every day, Jianzong disciples traveled between East Lake Bieyuan and Jiangdu. Xiao Jin paid attention, and then instructed Bamu, the master of the King Kong Temple, to personally capture a disciple of the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall.

Xiao Jin took a sip of tea and asked, "How is it?"

It seemed as if the six sides of the Buddha statue were still standing still, and there was no movement of lips, but a voice sounded out of thin air, "This man is a disciple of Jianqi Lingkong Hall, and he went to the East Lake Courtyard to report to Zhang Xueyao about the crimes in the capital city under the secret order of Wu Yu in the city. The 'vine' thing."

"Vine?" Xiao Jin put down the teacup in her hand and asked softly, "What vine?"

Liu Mian said: "According to the news sent back by Xiao Lin, Xu Beiyou once sent a letter to Jiangdu with Feijian. Although Xiao Lin failed to stop Feijian, according to his guess, this matter may have something to do with Xu Beiyou's letter. related."

Xiao Jin smiled, "Xu Beiyou, Xiao Daoer, those who don't plan for the world, don't plan for a moment, and those who don't plan for the overall situation, don't plan for a region. This person has some methods, but they are all heresy and cunning, so there is nothing to worry about."

Xiao Jin paused for a moment, then murmured again: "But then again, isn't Gu not good at heresy and cunning ways? On this journey, you have to guard against it."

Six faces remained silent.

Xiao Jin fell into deep thought.

For some reason, gradually, the expression on Xiao Jin's face became serious.

After a while, Xiao Jin stood up abruptly, and the disciple of the Sword Sect who was kneeling in front of him instantly turned into a puddle of blood.

Xiao Jin murmured: "I was tricked by Zhang Xueyao."

Liumian, who was about to speak, immediately shut up after hearing this.

Xiao Jin laughed darkly in a low voice: "What a Mingxiu plank road to cross Chen Cang secretly. If this king does not expect, Zhang Xueyao is already in Jiangdu City at this moment. She is determined to fight against Gu."

……

In Jiangdu City, Qingfeng Square.

In the newly built Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, Wu Yu, Li Qinglian, Li Shentong, Zhang An, Song Guanguan and the twelve sword masters stood on the left and right, all silent.

Soon, a figure wearing a heavy cloak walked into the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, walking non-stop until he reached the top of the hall, and then stopped to face the crowd.

Everyone knelt on one knee and saluted the visitor respectfully: "See Dai Sovereign."

The person who came took off the hood on his head, it was Jianzong's Daizong Xueyao.

She looked around, and said in a deep voice: "Nan Gui has already set foot on the [-]th Floor of the Earth Immortal in the imperial capital. From today onwards, I am no longer the acting lord of the Sword Sect, and Nan Gui is no longer the first disciple of the Sword Sect. He is the suzerain of my sword sect."

Everyone in the hall was amazed for a moment, then they were greatly surprised. The difference between whether there is a suzerain of the [-]th floor of the earth fairy is a world of difference. Now the sword sect has another great sword fairy as the suzerain , wouldn't that mean that it would be logical to reappear the past glory of our sect in the future! ?

Zhang Xueyao went on to say: "The suzerain has sent news that he will return to Jiangdu soon, but before that, there is another order from the suzerain, that is to remove all vines in Jiangdu city."

Wu Yu said softly, "Master, please tell me clearly."

Zhang Xueyao said expressionlessly: "The vines refer to all those who have connections with the Wei army outside the city. The lessons learned from Jiangling City are not far away, so the Suzerain has orders, no matter if it is someone from the imperial court or a wealthy family in the city, even if it is my sword sect. Middlemen, whoever engages in collusion will be punished without pardon."

"Wu Yu, you lead people to Tianyuanfang."

"Li Qinglian, you lead people to Fuguifang."

"Song Guanguan, you lead people to Ronghuafang."

"Li Qinglian, you, Yu Jia, Xuan Yi and others command the five thousand gunners left behind by the suzerain to support you. If anyone dares to resist, immediately gather the guns to kill them."

A group of people waited respectfully to accept their orders.

Zhang Xueyao then ordered to her close disciple: "Call Li Shidao in."

Not long after, Li Shentong's father, Li Shidao, walked quickly into the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall, and bowed respectfully to Zhang Xueyao, "Li Shidao has met Lafayette Zhang."

Zhang Xueyao was not polite, and said directly: "Jiangling City has fallen, and the Li family in Jiangling has rebelled. I hope that your Li family is not the Li family in Jiangling. The situation in Jiangdu City is now complicated. A person who has no clear connection with the Li family in Jiangling."

Li Shidao hesitated to speak.

Zhang Xueyao's face was cold, and she said coldly: "It's not just your Li family, but our Jianzong is also like this. In troubled times, even if millions of people die, it's not surprising. What are these people? No one from the Li family in Jiangling will be left behind!"

Li Shidao bowed and said in a low voice: "Please Lafayette, don't worry, Li's Li family is definitely not Jiangling's Li family."

Zhang Xueyao walked forward slowly and walked out of the Sword Qi Lingkong Hall.

You, Murong Xuan, have been planning for many years, secretly contacting the major families, intending to change the world in the south of the Yangtze River, so I, Zhang Xueyao, cannot make your wish come true.

Before the end of September, starting from Jiangdu, there were no more vines in the city.
