"General, want to see Brother Qiu?"

When Liu Hong and others heard this, their expressions changed slightly, and they immediately thought of the reason.

"Miao guards, Jiedushi summoned Brother Qiu, is it because of the matter about the prince of the Marsh people?" Someone next to Liu Hong asked, obviously knowing the person coming.

The Miao guard followed the sound and nodded when he saw the person who made the noise: "Yes, the people from the Marshman Prince have already made everything clear in front of the general."

"This is the evil person who complained first!"

"What a good idea!"

"How shameless!"

After hearing this, many soldiers couldn't help shouting and cursing, and some people tried to explain to Miao Guards what happened: "Miao Guards, it was not Brother Qiu who caused the trouble. It was the man from the marsh who went to the camp first, made things difficult for us, and then let us go. Poisonous insect, if Zhang Qi had not sacrificed his life to stop it, all the brothers present would have been poisoned. Afterwards, I took Zhang Qi to seek medical treatment, but was blocked by the people in the swamp. If Brother Qiu had not stepped forward and spoke up, the consequences would have been disastrous! "

"That's right! The people in the swamp are despicable. They bully others with words and hurt people with hidden arrows. Now they're beating them up. The bad guy complained first. It's so shameless!"

The soldiers spoke to each other one by one, showing the true appearance of the matter. After hearing this, the Miao guards clarified the situation and couldn't help but frowned: "So there are still these twists and turns in this?"

This Miao personal guard is the personal guard of Song Yuan, the Jiedushi envoy. The so-called personal soldiers, who patrol the Jiedu envoy's house on weekdays and protect him personally during war, are Song Yuan's confidants. The general they call him refers to It was Song Yuan, the military envoy of Wu Xinjun. In addition to his position as military envoy, Song Yuan also held the titles of Annan's Protector and Annan's General.

Although the janissaries are close to Jiedushi, they are still soldiers in the final analysis. They belong to the Wuxin Army and form their own factions in the army. They compete for power and struggle with other factions, but they really face foreign enemies. They can still be united, so after understanding what happened, the Miao guard also felt dissatisfied, and his attitude towards Qiu Yan became slightly kinder.

"Mr. Qiu, there is an inside story about this matter, but the general's orders cannot be violated. Please come with me first. I will report the matter to the commander and try to plead for mercy in front of the general."

After hearing the statement of the Miao guards, Qiu Yan nodded. Let it go.

Watching the two people leaving, Liu Hong said: "The cause of this matter is ours, and we cannot let Brother Qiu suffer on behalf of others. You guys take care of Zhang Qi here, and I will go to the military camp and inform the general of the matter. Let him also plead for mercy.”

After saying that, he also started to leave.

Many people in the tavern across the street saw this scene. Everyone had their own guesses, and most of them shook their heads and sighed, but the two Confucian scholars looked at each other and smiled without saying a word. I feel like I am strategizing and calculating everything.

………………

"Mr. Qiu, the general is in a good mood today. When you come to see me later, you can explain the whole story clearly. But don't refute the general, otherwise you will be self-defeating."

The Miao guards led the horses and walked side by side with Qiu Yan. He told some things clearly out of good intentions. Although Qiu Yan had already made plans, he still nodded repeatedly.

The two walked a few steps, and when they passed a street corner, they met a Taoist priest.

This Taoist priest wears a bun on his head and looks to be only seventeen or eighteen years old. He is holding Buddha dust and has an elegant demeanor. However, his Taoist robe is a bit strange. Although he has large sleeves, the edges are fiery red. As you walk, the edges sway, as if blood is flowing, but upon closer inspection you realize that this is just an illusion.

The Taoist priest staggered over, and when he passed by Qiu Yan, he suddenly stopped, then took a step forward, widened his eyes, and looked at Qiu Yan carefully.

This incident naturally caused Qiu Yan and Miao Guards to stop and want to find out.

Qiu Yan narrowed his eyes and looked at the Taoist priest. He caught a hint of the unfathomable flavor from the other person, especially those eyes, which were full of vicissitudes of life and did not look like a young man at all.

"This is definitely not a young Taoist priest!"

On the opposite side, the Taoist priest suddenly said after looking at him: "This donor, if you have a dark seal in the Taoist temple, the Lord will be in trouble; if your brows are raised, you will not welcome the nobles and will anger the nobles; if there are tattoos on the eyebrows, tail and nose, this will It is miserable to have no mourners after death. The poor Taoist sees that you have three qi: poor fortune, short salary, and long life. There is more than enough, but there is not enough purity. Three souls are determined by two souls. However, the road to heaven is elusive, and it will eventually turn into nothing. , Big bad! Big bad!”

When the Taoist priest opened his mouth, his voice was low, not like the voice of a young man, but rather like the voice of an old man in his sixties. Moreover, when he spoke, he spoke with sinister words. His words were continuous and loud, which made the Miao guard subconsciously feel pressured and felt like a storm. The feeling of hitting your face!

On the contrary, Qiu Yan, the person involved, still squinted his eyes and looked at the Taoist priest calmly.

The Taoist priest was still talking: "The so-called today's effect and yesterday's cause can have such a vicious character. It can be seen that it was caused by your evildoing. You killed the noble man and you were too evil! No one can save you! Just take care of yourself!"

After saying this, the Taoist priest looked away, smiled coldly, staggered away, and quickly disappeared around the corner of the street.

After a while, Miao Guards recovered from his surprise and whispered: "You are deceiving the public with your evil words! Mr. Qiu, don't worry about it."

However, as soon as he said these words, he noticed that the passers-by around him were whispering to each other. Occasionally, he could hear sporadic words, which were nothing more than "old gods" and "unforgettable strategies", which immediately reminded Miao Guards of a certain rumor. , couldn't help but shouted again: "However, Mr. Qiu, please don't be impulsive later, and you must not anger the general."

After hearing this, Qiu Yan smiled slightly and nodded in agreement, but his mind was still recalling the scene just now, and he had speculations in his mind.

"This Taoist priest appeared suddenly, but he seemed to have known me for a long time. He said that my energy was weak and my life was in danger. He also said that it was because he killed a noble man. He also used some confusing methods in his words. He wanted me to I am upset, but I don’t know that I have the sage’s manuscript to calm my mind. These tricks are useless, huh?”

Thinking of being upset, Qiu Yan had a flash of inspiration in his heart.

"So that's it. His actions, if he cooperates with his inner demons, can indeed be believed to be true. If he is worried every day, has worries, and has random thoughts, even good luck can turn into a disaster! This luck and Your own thoughts are also related.”

As soon as he thought about it, his thoughts became clearer and clearer, and he finally laughed.

"Good thing, good thing. The enemy hiding behind the scenes is the most worrying thing. On the contrary, when you come to the front desk, no matter what your cultivation level is, at least there are signs. If you can figure out some things, you will have a clue."

As he thought about it, Qiu Yan became more and more relaxed and followed the Miao guards all the way into the Jiedushi Mansion.

………………

"Child Qiu Yan, when I said these words, he must have been shocked and confused, and his mind became even more confused. The demons in his heart continued to deepen, and he would soon go completely crazy."

In a corner of the street, the Taoist priest who had just spoken to Qiu Yan was sneering.

"Just now, he didn't know the heights of the world, and the conflict with the swamp man prince was a sign of losing his mind. He lost his balance and understanding, and he didn't know how to advance or retreat. As long as he adds more fire, he will soon be so angry that he can't extricate himself!"

The young Taoist priest's eyes, filled with vicissitudes of life, revealed deep-seated hatred.

"Killing this man alone would be too easy for him! Even if he is crushed to death, it will not be able to relieve the hatred in my heart! I can only let him suffer and lose his mind, and then be killed by my sword. He will never recover and his soul will be reborn. Tangled with inner demons, eternal damnation!”

Thoughts were running through his mind, and a smile appeared on the Taoist priest's face. He looked elegant, but had a bloody aura. He turned his head and looked towards the center of Wuxin City. His eyes flickered, and his eyes seemed to be looking straight through many obstacles. Jiedushi Mansion.

"The demon who stole the god's throne is now seriously injured and suffering. Neither Qiu Yan nor the demon can escape. In this way, after killing the inner demon and removing all obstacles, the second transformation of the soul will be completed. Directly It’s possible to form pills!”

Thinking of this, he walked forward, stepping on the ground step by step. Although he left no traces, his breath lingered, rising faintly, creating a connection with something in the sky.

"In terms of the results of the battle, you and I were two heroes back then, but you lost to me in the end because I acted carefully, and a lion hunts a rabbit with all my strength! When everything is arranged, it will be a thunderous strike!"

The faint aura gradually spread, vaguely spreading to half of the city.

………………

The Jiedushi Mansion is located in the center of Wuxin City, covering an area of ​​nearly 100 acres. The buildings are continuous and majestic, just like a royal palace. It is said that it was once the royal palace of a small country in the southwest. After being annihilated, it became a land without an owner. After several twists and turns, It became the Jiedushi Palace.

Qiu Yan followed the Miao guards to the front of the house. The first thing he saw was the red painted door and the stone carvings in front of it. , eyes as sharp as knives, always paying attention to passers-by.

As soon as Qiu Yan walked to the door, the four people's eyes were all directed towards him, and Qiu Yan suddenly felt a sting on his face.

"To be able to dazzle people with your gaze means you have Qi sensing, and you have to refine at least one soul. Such a person actually looks after someone's home and courtyard. This shows the power of this Jiedu Envoy."

Qiu Yan had come to inspect several times before, but he always looked at him from a distance, so he couldn't tell the gatekeeper's cultivation level.

These four gatekeepers are not personal guards, but servants. However, the servants of military generals are not just people who water flowers and grass. They can kill the enemy and rush into battle even if they go to the battlefield.

The Miao Guards stepped forward and showed their tokens, and then led Qiu Yan into the mansion through the side door. The door of the Jiedu Envoy's Mansion cannot be opened casually. It involves etiquette and the person is not qualified enough. There will be disaster.

After entering the palace and passing through a garden, Miao's guards arranged Qiu Yan in a side room and asked him to wait for the summons here while he retired.

As soon as everything was ready in the wing, there were maids bringing snacks and then tea.

He picked it up and took a sip. His mouth was full of fragrance, which was obviously not ordinary, but Qiu Yan had no intention of drinking tea.

"Just looking at the posture inside and outside the palace, Song Yuan is by no means a simple person. Such a person was deceived by King Tongshan, did not discover the other party's true identity, and even got married. What's going on here... Eh? There is a faint evil spirit in this room, which means that a monster once resided here." (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature for better and faster updates!
