Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 535 Lu Yanyou's Grave
Xu Zhiqiong woke up from the nightmare, his clothes drenched in cold sweat.

It was a dream, and Xu Zhiqiong knew it was a dream in the dream.

But why is this dream so real?
The last time such a vivid dream appeared was in the Marquis's Mansion in Wang'anjing. At that time, Liang Zhenjie entrusted Xu Zhiqiong with a dream in some way.

Could it be that this dream was also entrusted to me by someone else?
Xu Zhiqiong recalled every detail of the dream carefully, without any fuzziness, and remembered everything clearly.

Especially Liang Yuyang who appeared last in the dream, especially the one he called Junior Brother Ma.

That was Long Xiulian's unique name for Xu Zhiqiong.

What does this dream portend?
Long Xiulian took Liang Yuyang away and started killing in the palace?
Is this possible?

Maybe, it's too possible, that lunatic Long Xiulian can't do anything!
The question is, where did this dream come from?

Is it some kind of omen, or is it the result of Xu Zhiqiong's excessive worry about Long Xiulian?

At dawn the next day, Xu Zhiqiong told Meng Yuanfeng: "Old man, I dreamed about Long Xiulian."

After listening to Xu Zhiqiong's narration, Meng Yuanfeng pondered for a moment and said, "Did you learn Yin Yang Art yesterday?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "I have carefully studied the Yin-Yang sixth-grade skills."

"Balance of advance and retreat," Meng Yuanfeng also has a lot of research on yin and yang arts, "That's right, you have just reached the sixth rank, and you have learned the technique of balance of advance and retreat. The method of divination."

"The method of dream divination?" Xu Zhiqiong was startled, "Is it dream interpretation?"

"It's not dream interpretation. Dream interpretation is the method of divination. The method of dream divination is to dream, to have some dreams that should not be dreamed. Both are divination techniques, but there is a difference between the fundamental and the inferior.
Dream interpretation means that a person's dream has been intruded by some kind of intrusion, and he has a dream that should not be dreamed, and the dream interpreter can use this kind of dream to predict good and bad luck.
The method of dream divination is because the fortune teller has special skills and can detect some kind of intrusion, so he has a dream that should not be dreamed. "

Xu Zhiqiong roughly understood that dream interpretation is to calculate good and bad through dreams.

Dream divination means wanting to know something, subjectively and intentionally making a dream.

But Xu Zhiqiong didn't want to dream on purpose. It should be because of the excessive use of Yin Yang, which made me become like a radar, and inadvertently harvested some kind of signal.

But who sent this signal to me?

Is Emperor Chang Le really in trouble, or is someone deliberately designing a trap to plot against me?

Xu Zhiqiong asked, "Where does this intrusion into the dream come from?"

Meng Yuanfeng thought for a moment and said: "True gods, stars, and star officials, all those who have escaped from the mortal world can have dreams, or they are aliens with yin, yang, and extreme resentment."

Yin Qi, Yang Qi, and extreme resentment are heterogeneous.

Liang Zhenjie is the soul of longevity. He entrusted me with a dream at the beginning. He is a different kind, with a lot of yin and deep resentment.

Meng Yuanfeng sighed and said: "This old man is good at divination and calculation, but only dream divination is not good at it. If you want to learn dream divination, you must have the sixth grade of yin and yang cultivation. I love yin and yang, and I am quite talented and good at it." Use the teleportation circle,
It's a pity that there are few yin and yang cultivators in Da Yu, and there has been no chance to enter the product. Regarding the dream divination, you'd better ask that girl Tao again. "

Xu Zhiqiong found Tao Huayuan and told him about the dream. Tao Huayuan frowned and said, "You have such a dream because you miss the emperor too much. Don't think about the method of dream divination anymore. It's not a sixth grade at all." Cultivators can learn it well, besides, the technique of divination is not a serious method in the first place, wouldn't it be good to learn the magic circle with me steadily?"

Xu Zhiqiong shook his head and said, "I'm not thinking about the emperor, I didn't think about him at all last night, I just want to sleep soundly."

Tao Huayuan frowned and said, "Then you miss that bitch Liang Yuyao, what's good about her? Do you just like her like a big peach?"

There is no way to communicate with Taoer about this matter.

Not because Tao'er hates Liang Yuyao, but because Tao'er hates divination.

She knows divination, but rarely uses it. She thinks it is the most unreliable Yin-Yang technique.

Who did this dream come from? Is it a hint or a trap?
Xu Zhiqiong took out six copper coins.

The source of the dream cannot be calculated with these six copper coins.

Calculate whether the dream is bad or good?
Don't count this, this dream is obviously very ominous.

Do you think this dream is real or not?

How can something be considered true or false if it hasn't happened yet?
Xu Zhiqiong thought for a moment, concentrated his thoughts, and figured out the direction of the divination.

What is Liang Yuyang's fate recently?

The six copper coins were thrown out, and after landing, all six sides were cloudy.

Liang Yuyang is in trouble!

The six copper coins are at the feet, very close to each other.

Does this mean that Liang Yuyang will soon be in trouble?
Long Xiulian is going to attack Emperor Chang Le?
His injury should not be healed yet, Li Shabai said that he will not recover in a short time.

But he also has a helper, a very powerful helper.

Tao'er has to send a letter to Emperor Changle.

But Xu Zhiqiong was also worried that it would be too late to deliver the letter, and Long Xiulian was a person who would do what he said.

He lit the censer. Although he knew that the censer was unreliable, it was the most efficient way of communication.

Furnace smoke rose, outlining Emperor Chang Le's face: "Zhi Qiong, you have some news, someone told me you were injured!"

It was He Fang who told Emperor Chang Le that Xu Zhiqiong was injured, and after being injured, he disappeared immediately and was never heard from again.

There are many things involved here, including the battle in Yunzhou, so Emperor Changle naturally couldn't explain it to the incense burner.

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Isn't that right, Your Majesty, you also know that I am used to being sloppy, and I don't even have a guard by my side. There are just a few maids who can't do anything except a little chore. If an assassin comes, my life will be in danger."

Emperor Chang Le nodded and said: "Zhi Qiong, I'm not talking about you, you're a big one, you know it hurts this time, I'll write a letter to Mo Chi tomorrow and ask him to send you some more guards."

"Your Majesty, how is Commander Zhong's injury?"

"I'm still alive. I'm hanging by Dr. Han. I don't know how long I can last."

"Is there any news from Gongsun Wen?"

"I have played against Ji Qi several times, and we won and lost each other, but we didn't take advantage of it."

……

The two of them talked about a lot of things, all of which were very important but did not need to be kept secret.

After breaking off the connection with the incense burner, Emperor Chang Le looked dignified.

He knew there was something in Xu Zhiqiong's words.

Xu Zhiqiong never had guards around him, he was used to being alone, he didn't want to change, and it was impossible for him to change.

Emperor Chang Le also has this problem.

His father Liang Xianhong was in the palace, no matter where he went, there should be no less than two hundred guards around him, and when he left the palace, he had to bring the guards with him, the number should not be less than one thousand.

Unless it involves the secret affairs of the Taotie Taoism, this rule must not be changed. In his father's words: "There are too many villains who want to harm me."

But Emperor Chang Le didn't have this habit, he usually didn't bring guards with him in the palace, even when he went out of the palace, he walked alone.

Xu Zhiqiong was warning him that something was going to happen.

Actually something happened.

The queen mother was robbed.

The Baoci Palace, which was full of traps, was broken into and the Queen Mother was robbed. Except for the six servants guarding the gate, the palace did not respond that night.

If the other party wanted to kill Emperor Chang Le that night, it probably wouldn't be too difficult.

Emperor Chang Le called Lu Yunxi and said, "Have you found out the whereabouts of the Empress Dowager?"

Lu Yunxi shook his head: "Still investigating."

Emperor Chang Le gave an order: "Strengthen the guard in the imperial palace, I will live in these two days..."

He lowered his voice and whispered something to Lu Yunxi.

Lu Yunxi nodded again and again: "I understand."

……

During the day, Xu Zhiqiong continued to learn the balance of advance and retreat with Tao Huayuan. In the middle of the night, tiredness struck, and Xu Zhiqiong had just fallen asleep when he heard another burst of crying.

Xu Zhiqiong opened his eyes and found himself in a mass grave.

Surrounded by mist, the scenery is hazy.

There were bursts of sobbing in the distance, and the sound was very familiar.

It's a lady!
Xu Zhiqiong hurried forward, but saw Xia Hu crying in front of a grave.

Whose grave is this?
Xu Zhiqiong walked to Xia Hu's side and looked at the tombstone on the grave.

Lu Yanyou!
On the left side of Lu Yanyou's grave, there is another grave with Zhuo Ling'er's name written on the tombstone.

Zhuo Ling'er, Zhonglang, was ordered to be ordered by the penalty department in the capital.

The judge in the capital said something big is going to happen!
Xu Zhiqiong looked to the right again, there was also a new grave there.

Seeing the name on the tombstone, Xu Zhiqiong shivered.

Qian Limu!
Brother Qian!
He is no longer punishing the criminals in the capital!
Xia Hu said to Xu Zhiqiong: "Officer, where are you? Officer, I'm so scared, Officer, our Taoism is over."

Suddenly there were a few more people around Xia Hu, and they were all crying.

Wang Yan'er, Zhao Baijiao, and many judges.

Grave mounds emerged from the ground one by one.

Yong Lu punished Shi Li Muliang, the evil chief.

Shi Yi Jiming, chief of Chaizhou Punishment Department.

Shi Yuan Yushao, head of Pingzhou Punishment Department.

Zhuzhou punished the evil chief Shi Qiu Zhixin.

……

Grave mounds kept appearing, Xu Zhiqiong was shocked and speechless, suddenly saw Wang Yaner's face was full of tears, walked to Xu Zhiqiong's side and said, "Master Ke, I'll make you a cup of tea."

Zhao Baijiao cried: "Master Ke, I will accompany you to drink."

Xia Hu cried: "Officer, where are you?"

……

Xu Zhiqiong woke up and took out six copper coins from his arms.

The judge said, what is good or bad?

He raised his hand and threw the copper coin to the ground.

The six negative sides are up.

……

Xu Zhiqiong was going back to the capital, so he couldn't ignore it.

He and Tao'er were about to pack their bags when the maid Pu Ye came to report, and Mo Chi sent messengers to ask Xu Zhiqiong to go to the palace immediately.

Why did Mo Chi ask me to go to the palace?
Xu Zhiqiong went to the palace first, and Mo Chi prepared a banquet, and the two chatted while eating.

"Yunhou, I haven't seen you for a few days, but I got a lot of scars on my body."

In Yunzhou, Xu Zhiqiong fought a bloody battle, and the scars on his body have not faded.

For this, Xu Zhiqiong was prepared: "A few days ago, several assassins came to the mansion. I was not prepared at the time. I fought with them for a while, and accidentally suffered some trauma."

Mo Chi smiled and said, "Where did the assassin come from? Could it be from Yunzhou?"

It seemed that Mochi already knew about Yunzhou.

It's okay to know, Xu Zhiqiong continued to pretend to be confused: "It's really possible that Yunzhou came from Yunzhou. Recently, Yunzhou is not peaceful. The magistrate rebelled, and Daxuan has sent troops to quell it."

Mo Chi sighed and said, "Marquis Yun, how will I treat you?"

"Your Majesty treats me very well."

Mo Chi said: "I don't expect the Marquis Yun to join me, Da Yu, but the two countries have turned to each other, and the rules must not be messed up. If Marquis Yun leaves Wansheng City at will, isn't he treating the relationship between the two countries as a trifle?"

Xu Zhiqiong raised his glass and said with a smile, "Xuan Yu's feelings are unbreakable and indestructible."

Mo Chi nodded and said: "I trust Marquis Yun. In the past two days, the Gu tribe has frequently mobilized troops and fought against the army of your country several times. It is said that they have taken advantage of it.
Da Yu's vitality has not yet recovered, my throne has not been firmly established, and the Gu clan is waiting for an opportunity. I have many things that I need Yunhou to help me plan, and I ask Yunhou not to leave Wansheng City easily. "

Xu Zhiqiong clasped his fists and said, "Xu will definitely do his best."

After perfunctory with Mo Chi, Xu Zhiqiong returned to the mansion.

It was really unexpected that the Gu clan turned around so quickly.

The key is that Chu Xin is not in front of the battle, and the battle may get out of control at any time.

I have to find out about Chu Xin's situation.

Mo Chi watched really closely, I was discovered by him only a few days after I left Wansheng City.

We have to figure out a way to deal with this too.

Back at the mansion, Xu Zhiqiong said to Tao Huayuan, "Tao'er, are you good at disguise?"

Tao Huayuan said: "It's not considered proficient. If you want to change your appearance, it's not a problem, but if you want to pretend to be someone, I'm afraid there will be omissions."

"There are omissions, it doesn't matter, you first teach me the disguise technique of the Yin and Yang Taoism."

Ordinary disguises are just make-up techniques, such as putting on a beard, getting a pockmark, making a face full of pustules and the like.

The disguise technique of the Onmyo family is supported by illusion. Although it is also a cover-up technique, it is better than being able to pretend to be someone's appearance.

Xu Zhiqiong is proficient in illusion. With Tao Huayuan's little guidance, Xu Zhiqiong learned the essence of disguise.

Tao Huayuan asked, "Who are you trying to pretend to be after learning this technique?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "It doesn't matter if I pretend to be anyone, the key is that you have to pretend to be me."

Tao Huayuan Bingxue was smart, so she naturally understood what Xu Zhiqiong meant: "You want me to stay in the Marquis's Mansion to defend against Emperor Yu Xian for you?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded.

Tao Huayuan was very dissatisfied, she lowered her head and said, "But you won't take me back to Daxuan?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "It's very dangerous to go to Daxuan, we must not leak our whereabouts."

Tao Huayuan said angrily, "What if Emperor Yu Xian sees the flaw?"

Xu Zhiqiong said: "Don't let him see the flaw, not only can't let him see it, even if Xuan people come to see it, this matter is related to my life, there must be no mistakes."

Tao Huayuan was helpless, and tried to change into Xu Zhiqiong's appearance.

The method was not satisfactory, if Xu Zhiqiong looked at it, he would be able to see the flaw at a glance.

But he is a master of illusion and cannot be judged by his standards. He hid in the dark and asked Tao Huayuan to order a few maids to come in.

Several maids came in to make the bed and fold the quilt, serve tea and water, and found nothing unusual.

Xu Zhiqiong said goodbye to Taoer, took Chang Decai and Yang Wu with him, and was about to jump from the stable to the wall when Meng Yuanfeng stopped him and asked, "Going back to Daxuan again?"

Xu Zhiqiong nodded: "You don't need to ask about other matters, but you can't ignore the matters of Taoism."

Meng Yuanfeng sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll give you a ride."
