I'm the one running the game
Chapter 147: Dusk in the Deep Mountains, Treasures in the Clouds
"Did they run away?" Duan Long's tone rose three pitches, with dissatisfaction in his expression: "A useless person who can't even tie a chicken and an old man who is half buried in the ground, a whole team of people, and a powerful crossbow, how could they run away!!!"
Duan Long was very angry. Even if the masters in the martial arts world came here, they would have to die on the spot when facing such an ambush, not to mention these two people.
"My lord, we only found the bodies of Zhou Da and others. They seemed to have been tortured before they died." The military advisor under his command spoke again.
This made Duan Long's expression stagnate: "You mean, the people who rescued Duan Chen may have known that we did it."
He was also a little flustered. The first thing he thought of was the recent uproar of the Dongtian True Transmission. Others didn't know how his father died, but how could he not know that he died at the hands of a Dongtian True Transmission.
But the Dongtian True Transmission who killed his father also died in the siege.
"This idiot is really lucky." Duan Long covered up the confusion in an instant. Now he is the King of Yue. His identity is different, so he can't show any emotions that don't match his identity.
Even if the sky falls, he has to endure it.
"My king, the most urgent thing is that we should cut the grass and root it out as soon as possible. We can't let the eldest son leave like this." The military advisor spoke again.
If Duan Chen died, the rest would be easy to deal with, but now he is not dead, so we can only use tricks.
"Everyone has run away, what else can we do? It's too late to chase him." Duan Long said calmly.
Calculating the time, Duan Chen has already run out of his territory as the King of Yue. He doesn't have such courage to chase across the territory. If a misunderstanding is formed, it will be troublesome.
"Sometimes you don't need to kill someone yourself, and the same is true for destroying him."
"You can just move your mouth, for example, the eldest son was blinded by greed and colluded with Dongtian Zhenchuan to kill his father and seize power."
"Another example is that the eldest son is a beast in human form, licentious, etc., a loser, no one will defend him, how the rumor spreads, it is still up to us to decide."
"With the eldest son's intelligence, hearing these rumors, he must be extremely angry, and even die to prove his innocence." The military advisor knows Duan Chen very well.
Duan Long smiled: "Okay, I'll follow your plan and spread it quickly, so that my good brother will die without a burial place."
He has never thought much of his elder brother. A motherless thing, is he worthy of comparing with him?
It's a pity that he has no talent for reading. After his elder brother passed the examination for a scholar at a young age, his status has become lower and lower.
Fortunately, the troubled times came, and everything became different.
And he took advantage of the situation.
"How is the fate of the emperor?" Duan Long asked.
If you want to occupy a position in the troubled times, the fate of the emperor is indispensable.
"The saint of the Holy Fire Cult broke the contract and disappeared, and now there is no clue." The military advisor said helplessly. The Mu family has been doing things all the time.
Not getting the fate of the emperor, and failing to hunt and kill, it is simply a waste of a big name.
The Mu family is the maiden family of Duan Long's mother. They are descendants of the former Prince Xi of Yan. In order to avoid disaster, they changed their surname from Murong to Mu.
Therefore, the whole family has the surname Mu, but because of the recent troubled times, they have the idea of changing back to Murong. They are just afraid of the King of Yan. If they change directly, it will be bad to anger the other party.
"Let the Mu family be quiet recently and don't jump too high." Duan Long's eyes showed a trace of murderous intent.
He always felt that the successive failures of the Mu family were not real failures, but were deliberately suppressed to prove that his rise to power was inseparable from the help of the other party.
In fact, it was indeed the case, but Duan Long didn't want to accept the favor.
If the Mu family really becomes big, it will inevitably threaten his position.
So the best way is to control the Mu family and make them a knife in his hand, rather than his support and partner.
Now he is the King of Yue, and he can only be the ruler, and he does not need subordinates who are equal to him.
"Let your people take over the matter of finding the martial arts of the emperor's destiny, and be low-key, don't be too ostentatious." Duan Long knew that the emperor's destiny was indispensable, and he would definitely not be assured if he handed it over to others, so he could only let his own people do it.
"Yes, King!" The military advisor said immediately.
…
"After passing this mountain, my brother will not dare to chase us." Duan Chen said.
After adapting to the heavy news after he got on the pirate ship, he quickly adjusted his state.
Following Lu Xingshi is not a road to heaven. The dignified King of Yan personally threatened... to recruit him, which can be regarded as smoke rising from his ancestral grave.
There was also an emperor who was acting weird with him. If it was the prosperous times, with the size of his Duan family, he would not be able to sit on the same level with such a person, and could only kneel far away.
"That's such a pity. I thought I could catch up with him again, and then I would kill him." Lu Xingshi's face was full of regret.
The old emperor was also very relieved at this time. Duan Chen's old servant belonged to him, which allowed him to get rid of the embarrassing situation of doing everything by himself and barely restore a trace of royal dignity.
"You just want to kill people, but you have no reason to do it, right?" The old emperor complained.
Lu Xingshi ignored the other party at all, but asked Duan Chen: "You said before that your father was looking for a certain emperor's fate? Do you know where it is?"
He seriously suspected that this emperor's fate was related to the saint of the Holy Fire Religion, that is, the group of former Yan remnants they met in the first batch.
"I have some impression. What I said before was a poem."
"The mountains and rivers have not hidden the clouds, the wind and moon should enter the dreamland."
"But until now, no one has been able to decipher what it means." Duan Chen said regretfully.
He was also a little lucky that his father did not find the so-called emperor's fate, otherwise Lu Xingshi would come to his door.
Nowadays, anyone who has the emperor's fate is hidden tightly, for fear of leaking any information.
The last and the last person who got the emperor's fate were Qi Wang Cai Qiuhe and Liao Wang Ahachu. These two people not only died at the hands of Lu Xingshi, but also their forces died suddenly. In the end, the emperor's fate also fell into Lu Xingshi's hands.
If his father got it, Lu Xingshi might come to visit one day, and then the whole family would die.
"Oh, so cultured." Lu Xingshi didn't intend to think about what this meant. He was not a professional literary person or geography or history person.
He had a more direct solution. For example, relying on luck directly.
As soon as Lu Xingshi said this, Duan Chen didn't know how to respond to him.
"What is the name of the mountain in front?" Lu Xingshi thought, since his destiny attribute was so high, it was reasonable for him to take the treasure.
Therefore, he thought there might be treasure in this mountain.
"Dusk Mountain." Duan Chen answered honestly.
Lu Xingshi narrowed his eyes, and then said: "I think what your father wants is in this mountain."
Duan Chen was also shocked, and hurriedly asked: "Are you serious?!!"
"I guessed." Lu Xingshi complained: "They all say that I have destiny, so I think I'm lucky."
This explanation was indeed beyond their expectations. They thought Lu Xingshi would give an explanation for the meaning of this poem, but they didn't expect it to be just guessing.
"With your way of rising, it really doesn't make sense without a destiny." The old emperor was also very jealous. Lu Xingshi did nothing and wandered around and got the huge Yan State for nothing, while he worked diligently but ended up like this. It was really unfair.
"In the future, when someone scolds me for being so successful, saying that it was just luck, I will tell him that you just don't have this luck." Lu Xingshi said with a scornful tone.
After hearing this, the old emperor was speechless. If Lu Xingshi really said this, I'm afraid his blood would be blocked.
"Then how should we find it after we enter this Dusk Mountain?" Duan Chen changed the subject very tactfully.
"Looking for a peak or a cave, as a scholar, don't you know what the word xiu means?" Lu Xingshi asked back.
The word xiu refers to a smooth cave or peak.
Then it's clear at a glance.
Don't ask why others can't find it, just ask that there is no fate.
Those who are destined can have it delivered to their door even if they lie at home, and those who are not destined can't use it even if they have it in their hands.
The unlucky Palace Master of Huangjue Palace is a case in point. Longque has been in Huangjue Palace for many years, but he can't be recognized by Longque and can't exert the maximum power of the "Huangji Tianshu".
"It is indeed possible that it is Mumu Mountain, which has a lot of peaks and caves."
"My father and his men have sent people to search carefully several times, but they found nothing." Duan Chen naturally knew about this matter, and the initial commotion was still very big.
It's a pity that they came with high hopes, but returned disappointed, without even a trace.
Later, they secretly explored several times, but still had no results, and finally Mumu Mountain was abandoned.
"Just because your father can't find it doesn't mean we can't find it."
"Besides, we don't have to look for it deliberately, as long as we can cross this mountain normally." Lu Xingshi naturally couldn't search carefully. It's true that he was lucky, but he might not find it. His luck was not good enough to ignore logic.
Things that didn't exist would not appear out of thin air.
"You come to lead the way, maybe you can pick it up." Lu Xingshi designated Duan Chen to come.
He always felt that Duan Chen was not just a gift to his employees, but a kind of introduction.
Over the past few days, the speed of recovery of the world has become faster and faster. He estimated that after a while, the upper attribute of the inner force will be able to unlock the restrictions. As for the mind and the like, it may take some time.
The whole world is likely to usher in some changes again.
"Ah? Me?" Duan Chen was a little unbelievable. Why did he let him lead the way? It's not that he didn't know the way, but he might go wrong.
Seeing that Lu Xingshi was so persistent, Duan Chen could only agree helplessly. If it didn't work, he would take a detour. Lu Xingshi didn't seem to be the kind of unreasonable person.
