Careerist in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 175: Onmyoji of Washing Hate

As expected by the hall master, Tian Guang had secret negotiations with the other five hall masters.

On the third day after Tian Guang left Gonggongtang, Zhou Wen came to Lu Wei to discuss the snare matter that Tian Guang had discussed with him.

In addition to Zhou Wen, the thoughtful Xia Kui also tried to insert two other peasant disciples into the net, or more specifically, former peasant disciples:

Chen Sheng, Wu Kuang.

Among them, Wu Kuang was put on death row because of a non-existent massacre. He had accepted surrender and became a murderous weapon in the trap.

But Wu Kuang's situation in the snare was far worse than that of Zhou Wen.

Wu Kuang started out as a "Jue" level assassin, betrayed part of his conscience, and worked hard for two years before rising to the ground level.

As for Zhou Wen, before he became 'Tian Meng', he was promoted to a murderer-level assassin and obtained the Autumn Toad Sword because of his meritorious service in planning the Chu army's rebellion.

Looking back now, it was because of his own relationship that Tian Meng needed someone more professional and more familiar with his words and deeds, so the father of the overlord Xiang Yu would have died a few years earlier due to a dishonorable incident.

After all, Zhou Wen originally needed to continue to lurk in the Chu army. Normally, he should be at the same level as Wu Guang now, both of whom are at the ground level.

Luo Wang monitors Wu Kuang very closely and treats it as a real inanimate tool and abuses it without restraint. Therefore, even Tian Guang rarely has contact with Wu Kuang.

Wu Kuang's days deep behind enemy lines had no end in sight.

Walking on such a dark road, Zhou Wen was worried about whether he could maintain his heart as a farmer, but Tian Guang was full of confidence when he said this:
'I watched both Chen Sheng and Wu Kuang grow up.The belief in farmers has long been integrated into their lives! '

Wu Kuang was struggling, and Chen Sheng was still facing his black swordsman.

Tian Guang had a clear grasp of the whereabouts of the giant sword master. He told Zhou Wen that he would contact Chen Sheng again later.

Lu Wei estimated that Tian Guang met Chen Sheng along the way when he took the Zhu family to visit Lord Changping.

The criminal documents of the Six Kingdoms have been collected, and there is only one country left, Qin, for the Black Swordsman to be crowned with the title of Sheng Qi.

"What Xiakui told me was about the snare, so what he told you must be about the farmers!"

Perhaps Tian Guang said that the time when Zhou Wenlai found Lu Wei was also noon.

"good."

Lu Wei could guess that Xia Kui had an account with Liutang, so Zhou Wen could naturally guess it as well. However, he first guessed that Tian Guang would contact him and Gonggongtang, until Tian Hu mysteriously came to tell his eldest brother Tian Meng that Xia Kui was against him. Liu Tang guessed it further after arranging a secret mission.

"Xia Kui urges me to capture Siyue Hall as soon as possible to ensure that I can fully control the entire farm when I become the next Xia Kui."

"This must not be difficult for you." Zhou Wen's eyes flickered: "But I still ask, do you need help from Lieshan Hall and Chi Youtang?"

"No need now, just cooperate with me at critical moments."

Lu Wei didn't say how to cooperate, and Zhou Wen didn't ask. He would understand at the critical moment.

"In addition, regarding our plan, Xia Kui said that he would actively cooperate with us and he would die as a result."

Zhou Wen gave a second piece of information, which was common to Hall Master Lu, so Lu Wei added: "I'm afraid it's not just the two of us, but also Wu Kuang."

"I have met Wu Kuang several times." Zhou Wen paused and said, "Xia Kui thinks he can be trusted, but it will be very risky. Such a risk is not worth taking."

"This is not something we should consider, but something Wu Kuang should consider." Lu Wei smiled lightly and shook his head:
"How do you think Xiakui would describe the current farmhouse to him?" After giving Zhou Wen three breaths of time to think about, he directly gave the answer: "Some hall masters are trappers, and some hall masters can be trusted!"

"If you were Wu Kuang, what would you do?"

Some of the Luowang hall masters here actually refer to Tian Mi, but after Wu Kuang's investigation, he will definitely think that the person Xia Kui mentioned is Zhou Wen disguised as Tian Meng.

This was a misunderstanding, but such a misunderstanding would be in line with Lu Wei and Zhou Wen's plans.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Wen also figured out this link:

"I understand what to do. Just treat Wu Kuang as if he doesn't exist. At the critical moment, a real Wu Kuang who has investigated the results by himself will be more beneficial to our plan."

"Yes." Lu Wei nodded and said calmly, "As long as you don't show mercy."

Zhou Wen was stunned for a moment, looked at the hall master for ten seconds, and finally said: "I will return this sentence to you intact."

In the plan, both of them must be absolutely cruel at certain times, but Zhou Wen needs to be cruel to himself, and Lu Wei only needs to be cruel to others.

Different targets of cruelty will naturally have different psychological burdens.
Hall Master Lu will shamelessly take advantage, while Zhou Wen needs to make sacrifices.Both of them were willing to accept such an unfair plan.

How can there be absolute fairness in the world? The one with higher value is naturally favored. The more the jungle is strong in the world, the greater the probability of this happening.
From Xu Sheng, Xu Qiu, Tian Zhong and Zhou He who were used at the beginning, to Zhou Wen and Tian Guang now.It is precisely because of the active or passive help of these people that Lu Wei will eventually fulfill his greed and become a legitimate dictator!

Because of Tian Guang's secret talks with the heads of the six halls, the turbulent undercurrents in Daze Mountain have subsided for a while. The tense internal fighting has no time to take care of the mission of the hero, and the atmosphere in the farmhouse is much harmonious.

The internal fighting in Liutang became more and more intense during their free time, and since they all had things to do, they naturally had no time to fight.

Lu Wei stayed at the headquarters for the whole spring. After having a general grasp of the headquarters affairs, he needed to go out to inspect several local branches.

In addition to the Yan State, which cannot go due to the war, he has to go to Songhai City in the east, Wei's self-built town, the old Wu Yue Jing Lake, and even Zhao, which has been adopted as Qin's territory.

If Jicheng in the north can really hold on for at least a year according to the estimates of Lord Changping and Yan Dan, then it is expected that even if they capture Yan next year, the Qin army will have to rest for a period of time before they can continue to attack Wei and Chu.

Even though the Wei State was in a state of intoxication and the Chu State had reorganized its power and had no energy to take the initiative to attack Qin State, when faced with the Qin Army's active attack, both countries were still able to erupt with a certain degree of combat effectiveness.

Attacking Zhao and Yan will cause heavy losses to the Qin army itself.

According to Wang Jian, conquering Wei was only part of the plan to attack Chu. To face Chu, which was vast and rich in resources, the soldiers needed to recharge their batteries.

------

Moon God and Dongjun returned to Yin Yang's house with the secret copper box related to Canglong Qisu.

Yue Shen has been away from the Yin Yang family for more than a year this time, and Dong Jun has been away from the Yin Yang family for five years.

The internal environment of the Yin Yang family has not changed, and it is the same as the scene where the two were learning Yin Yang skills when they were young.

But their moods have changed dramatically because of what they have experienced with each other, so the interior of the Yin Yang family now has a very different color in the eyes of the sun and the moon.

In actual behavior, Dong Jun was a naked traitor to the Yin Yang family. However, Dong Huang never announced this matter to the Yin Yang family, and even asked the moon god to call her back several times, which shows his preference.

This preference stems from Concubine Yan's talent for onmyoji.

This time I came back and brought back the Canglong Copper Box. Although the positions of the left and right guardians of the Yin and Yang family were no longer available, she would probably have suffered a heavy punishment.To be able to return to the Yin Yang family, Yueshen clearly saved Concubine Yan twice.

The two have fought endlessly, but Concubine Yan has always had the upper hand and suffered less.This time it was her turn to suffer, but the Moon God appeared in time to save her. Concubine Yan did not say anything, but she still accepted this feeling in her heart.

Concubine Yan was naturally aware of the rapid increase in her 'good sister''s level of onmyoji.However, because of Yan Guolenggong's life-saving attitude and his actions in helping her deal with Yan Dan, she didn't ask any more questions.

But deep down in her heart, Concubine Yan couldn't help but think of her behavior of immediately asking for information about a certain farmer's hall master after the Moon God was defeated the year before.
'The name Lu Wei seems to have been mentioned by Lord Donghuang.'

The Moon Goddess, the middle of the two women, carried the Canglong copper box and walked together to the Donghuang's secret room.

At the door, they happened to meet Xinghun coming out of the secret room.

"Long time no see, Lord Luna."

After practicing Yin Yang, when facing outsiders, Xinghun will always have a vague smile on his lips.

But Moon God had quietly discovered how cold-blooded this young man who practiced secret arts was behind his back.

"Lord Xinghun always likes to be quiet, but you can actually be polite?"

As soon as the Moon God stopped, Concubine Yan also stopped beside her, looking coldly at the new member of the Yin Yang family who had joined after she left.

"Quietness has its beauty, but if there is Lord Moon God" Xinghun's lips curled up more and he raised his hand to signal Concubine Yan: "It will definitely be more interesting if Lord Dongjun and Lord Dongjun are in Xianyang."

"Is this the Canglong Copper Box?"

The two women were arrogant and did not answer. Xinghun felt embarrassed and looked at the box held by the moon god again, his eyes searching: "It seems that the moon god has been away for a year without gain."

"There are some secrets that Lord Xinghun cannot be curious about."

"It's a piece of advice."

With a gentle wave of his sleeves, the Moon God unleashed a faint dragon's aura, forcing Xinghun to get out of the way.

Although Xinghun is extremely talented and has only a short time to practice Yin Yang, he is still far from being a match for the Moon God. Moreover, he is not prepared to fight, so giving in is more about letting nature take its course.

The sun and the moon stepped into the huge bronze door where the faces of ghosts and gods could not be seen clearly, leaving only the stars outside. They left this place with a light chuckle and a smile that did not diminish.

Although Concubine Yan remained silent, she quietly remembered a key message in Xinghun's words:
The Moon God left the Yin Yang family for a year!
She originally thought that the Moon God had indeed arrived in Jicheng early, but it was only for a month or two at most. If she didn't show up for a whole year, her sister might have taken care of other matters.
Judging from the words of the child who practices Yin Yang puppet master, there is a high probability that these other matters are not Yin Yang family affairs, but their private affairs.

What personal affairs does the right guardian of the Yin Yang family have?
Concubine Yan remained silent.

Moon God also understood that the timing issue between Xinghun's words exposed himself in front of his smart sister, so he just took action to stop Xinghun from continuing to speak, but unfortunately it was still too late.

Although she had prepared a speech for this, it was doubtful whether her speech could be convinced by Donghuang.

The two sisters walked up the star path step by step with their own thoughts, towards the glorious black-robed leader.
"Auspicious days are good for Chen Liang, Mu Jiang is happy for the emperor."

Donghuang's voice is cadenced, and when he reads the Nine Songs, especially in this chapter of "Donghuang Taiyi", his tone is always full of piety.

As the leader of the Yin Yang family, he rarely read out his own chapter, but today he only read one sentence, then stopped and stared at the sun and moon walking towards the front desk.

"Smooth the long sword and see Yu'er, and make a clang and sing like Lin Lang."

Concubine Yan lowered her head and read out the next sentence piously.

The Moon God knew that it was her turn, so she regained her previous emotions and added the third sentence: "The Yao Xi Xi Jade, the general will Xi Qiong Fang."

The three of them are descendants of the same surname Ji in the Yin Yang family, and this scene of reciting Jiu Ge has happened more than once.

In fact, there are only a few Nine Songs in total, and Donghuang likes to recite them. Over the past ten years, for Riyue, who asked to see him frequently, they heard many repetitions.
When one person finished reading "East Emperor Taiyi" in one sentence, Concubine Yan's willingness to repent, or regret and admit her mistake was conveyed to Xingchen, and there was no need to mention the betrayal again.

Such partiality only belongs to the Ji surname.

"Your Excellency Donghuang, I want to continue to seek revenge on Yan Dan, and I hope that Your Excellency Donghuang will allow me to do so."

After receiving the magnanimity, Concubine Yan seemed to be pushing further and made further requests.

"Yes", Donghuang stared at Concubine Yan's seal gesture and agreed to the request.

'Sure enough, you are practicing the yin and yang technique of washing away hatred. '

The Luna God who was listening in felt something in his heart. Only by obtaining the orthodox circulating Five Virtues Internal Qi could his own Yin and Yang skills be completely transformed.

But on the way back to Xianyang, she unexpectedly discovered that her good sister's level of onmyoji had also improved by leaps and bounds. Even if it was not as good as hers, it was obviously different.

So Luna couldn't help but remember the 'be careful' that Lu Wei warned before leaving.

There are many demanding ways to practice Yin Yang. She quickly thought that Concubine Yan might have practiced some forbidden techniques: such as washing away hatred.
With sincere hatred as the foundation of Yin Yang, every time you take revenge and your hatred is reduced by one point, Yin Yang will become more refined.

This forbidden technique has strict requirements, and hatred can only be practiced once in a lifetime. It is useless in most cases, but it is indeed very suitable for my good sister who has been abandoned.

'However, hatred is always limited. Once it is consumed, it will be consumed. How can it be compared with the cycle of my five elements? '

Luna's expression was very calm.

"In addition, I have been away from the Yin Yang family for many years and have not accomplished anything." Concubine Yan said calmly: "His Excellency Dong Huang was once curious about a certain young man in Jicheng and sent the moon god to find out that his name was Lu Wei."

"This Lu Wei is now the master of the farm hall. I am willing to investigate this person for His Excellency Dong Huang. I hope His Excellency Dong Huang will agree again."

"!"

The pupils of Luna's lowered eyes suddenly shrank, but his whole body remained motionless and he did not speak.

"The Moon God has always been responsible for this matter." Dong Huang glanced at the calm Moon God, and soon turned his eyes back to Dong Jun.

Concubine Yan raised her head and said seriously: "Lord Moon God has helped me a lot in Jicheng, and her hard work has made great achievements. I am willing to take on the task for her."

"In this case, Lord Moon God can stay in Xianyang and rest a lot."

Faced with Concubine Yan’s reasons, Donghuang Taiyi did not hesitate and decided:

"This matter."
