Chapter 178: If I Want To Do It, Who Can Stop Me?
After hearing Shangguan Haitang's words, Zhu Wushi didn't say anything immediately, instead he glanced at Shangguan Haitang and Duan Wuya.
"You guys come with me."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Wushi led a few people to the ninth floor of the prison.
Stepping into this dark and oppressive dungeon, the first thing that catches your eyes is a huge iron plate with the words Tiedanshenhou written on it.
When Shangguan Haitang saw the iron sign, she obviously knew what was going on, but she had never been here before.
Zhu ignored the iron plate in front of him and said calmly: "Do you know who is being imprisoned here?"
Shangguan Haitang was stunned for a moment, and said: "Isn't it Gu Santong who killed the master of the Nine Schools? He lost the duel with his adoptive father, so he was imprisoned in this place.
Zhu Wushi nodded, and said with a stern expression: "Gu Santong is the biggest devil in ancient and modern times. Anyone can be bewitched by him. That's why I imprisoned him here and erected this iron sign. As long as there is this iron plate, he will not be able to step out of the prison."
Of course Shangguan Haitang knew about this, but she didn't know why Zhu Wushi wanted to tell her.
Zhu Wushi fixed his eyes and said: "I don't know what the relationship between Chu Qi and the ancient Santong is, but he has been here, it is very likely that "Zero Sanqi" talked with the ancient Santong.
Shangguan Haitang said in surprise: "Father, are you saying that Chu Xiao might be bewitched by Gu Santong? That's impossible!"
Zhu Wushi took a deep look at Shangguan Haitang, and said to her: "We can't take risks, and neither can Daming. We don't know what Gu Santong said to Chu Xiao."
Shangguan Haitang still didn't believe that Chu Xiao would do something unfavorable to Daming after being bewitched by Gu Santong, but Zhu Wushi's order had to be obeyed.
Zhu Wushi went on to say: "All the spies from Hulong Villa are sent out, and they must stop Chu Xiao before he arrives in the capital. This is also to protect him. You must know that Dongchang is already on the move.
Shangguan Haitang frowned slightly. She never thought that one day she would become an enemy of Chu Qi, but the order Zhu ignored was an order, and she could only execute it meticulously.
And at this time
The carriage of Chu Xiao and others approached the capital all the way, and at the crossroads, the carriage stopped again.
Chu Xiao said to Zhou Zhiruo: "Miss Zhou, let's say goodbye now!"
Chu Xiao knew that when he returned to the capital this time, there would be a bloodbath, and he didn't want Zhou Zhiruo to be caught in it.
Zhou Zhiruo lowered her head and thought for a while, she got down from her horse, and said to a disciple of Emei: "Go back and report the matter here to Master."
The Emei disciple said in surprise: "Sister Zhou, what are you going to do?"
Zhou Zhiruo said: "Master Chu is kind to me. As a disciple of Emei, how can I stand by and watch when Master Chu is in trouble? I will return to the capital with him.
Chu Xiao probably didn't expect that Zhou Zhiruo would ask to go with her, maybe she also saw that it was very dangerous for Chu Xiao to return to the capital this time.
For Zhou Zhiruo's colleagues, Chu Xiao did not refuse, in fact, he did not take the threat of Dongchang seriously.
the carriage is moving forward
After a few miles, he arrived at the capital, but someone blocked his way on the way.
Xue Qianxun looked over and saw Shangguan Haitang standing there, her face was slightly sad, but the sword in her hand was clenched tightly.
Huang Xuemei had a good impression of Shangguan Haitang, so she asked, "Shangguan Haitang, why did you block our way?"
Shangguan Haitang said indifferently: "Please tell Mr. Chu that the capital is already a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, so it's better not to go there.
Her voice clearly floated into the carriage, and the corner of Chu Qi's mouth twitched slightly when he heard it.
then
Facing Shangguan Haitang outside, he said: "It's a pity that Chu is going to break into this dragon's pond and tiger's lair.
Shangguan Haitang hurriedly said: "Young Master Chu, you have offended Dongchang. Dongchang has power all over the court and the public. This time, Cao Zhengchun is determined to kill you. He falsely accused you of killing the border guards of the court, saying that your Chu family intends to rebel."
Chu Xiao's eyes froze when he heard this, he lifted the curtain and got off the carriage, and stepped forward to Shangguan Haitang without haste.
There was a hint of coldness in his eyes, and he asked, "Is my Chu family safe?"
At this time, his heart was already a little angry, if Cao Zhengchun dared to touch the people of the Chu family, then he would immediately enter the capital, go straight to Dongchang and crush Cao Laogou in the middle of the market.
Shangguan Haitang shrank back, she was frightened by Chu Xiao's eyes, so she quickly said: "I pleaded with all the officials for the Chu family, and my adoptive father also persuaded the emperor, but temporarily ordered the Chu family to shut their doors and think about their mistakes, and did not take any action. "
After Chu Xiao heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and he said lightly: "Fortunately, if something happens to the Chu family, I will definitely not spare the relevant people."
Shangguan Haitang hurriedly asked: "Young Master Chu, what are your plans now?"
Chu Xiao said coldly: "I will go to see the emperor first, and make it clear in person, and then I will kill Cao Zhengchun."
"what?"
Shangguan Haitang was taken aback when she heard this, but she didn't expect Chu Xiao to be so direct.
She hurriedly said: "My lord, you can't, this is a serious crime of treason."
But Chu Xiao said lightly: "I have made great contributions to the court, if the emperor really thinks that I, Chu Xiao, have rebelled, then so what if I will rebel."
There was determination and irrefutable determination in his voice.
Shangguan Haitang was shocked, she knew she was wrong, this reminded her of what happened when she came to stop Chu Xiao, she met Mr. Wuhen.
When leaving Hulong Villa, he ran into Mr. Wuhen on the road.
Knowing that she was going to stop Chu Xiao, Mr. Wuhen just shook his head and sighed, "You all thought Chu Xiao wrong, so did Cao Zhengchun, and so did your adoptive father."
Shangguan Haitang asked in surprise: "Master, what does this mean?"
Mr. Wuhen wore a bamboo hat with white gauze hanging all around his head, covering his own body, he said indifferently: "Chu Xiaoxin's aloofness has surpassed everything in the world, and the power struggle in the world has long been out of his eyes. But thinking that they can win by relying on these conspiracies and tricks, wouldn't it be self-inflicted humiliation.
Shangguan Haitang didn't understand, she asked herself suspiciously, this master with all-powerful abilities asked, "Master, what you mean is that Dongchang's framing can't harm him at all, but now the emperor is bewitched, thinking that there is something wrong with the Chu family. question."
Mr. Wuhen shook his head and said: "For those who have stepped into, no, already surpassed the Great Master state of mind, imperial power is nothing but dust in the palm of their hands, and it can be wiped into nothing with a single blow. Do you think that a sword can kill thousands of people? Practitioner , would you care about being an enemy of the world?"
Shangguan Haitang's hairs stood on end when she heard that, she couldn't understand why Cao Zhengchun dared to make Chu Xiao his enemy since Chu Xiao was so powerful.
Mr. Wuhen said calmly: "Zhuangzi once told a story that Phoenix only rested on the fragrant Parasol Tree all his life, only drank mountain spring water, and only ate the purest fruit, but one day Phoenix flew over a forest , a night owl catching a dead mouse saw it and thought that Phoenix was here to snatch the mouse, so he raised his head and croaked..."
Shangguan Haitang was exceptionally intelligent, she immediately understood that Cao Zhengchun was the night owl who was afraid of losing power.
…
Chu Xiao walked slowly past Shangguan Haitang, but Shangguan Haitang didn't do anything to stop her. She knew that no one could stop Chu Xiao.
In fact, she didn't want to stop him either, maybe Daming really needed such a hero to wipe out the power of Dongchang.
Chu Xiao and the others continued to walk forward, but soon encountered Gui Hai Yidao.
Gui Hai lifted his indifferent face, he knew Shangguan Haitang very well and knew that she would not stop Chu Qi.
But Zhu Wushi's order was to stop Chu Qi, and he couldn't just watch Shangguan Haitang being punished by Zhu Wushi for this matter.
"Return to the sea with one knife, please enlighten me."
Gui Hai drew out his own knife, he said briefly.
"Young master, I'm coming."
Chu Pingzhi said to Chu Xiao, and then he drew his sword and stepped forward.
Chu Qi stood with his hands behind his back. He looked at Gui Hai Yidao in front of him. There was a sharp murderous and evil aura about him.
In terms of strength, it has already entered the first-class early stage.
Chu Pingzhi used the Lin family's Sword Technique, and with the Sword Intent, the sword flower immediately enveloped Guihai with a sword.
But Gui Hai did not panic, his eyes were fixed, and a sharp and domineering aura came out of the knife out of its sheath.
Swords collided with knives, and sparks flew everywhere.
The sword intent is entangled with the saber energy, forming a strong wind that spreads around.
There was surprise in Zhou Zhiruo's eyes. In Emei Mountain, she always thought that Emei Sword Technique was already the best in Martial Forest, but now it seems that Own's vision is still too shallow.
Guihai Yidao was also surprised, he was a disciple of Ba Dao, and he had already obtained the true inheritance of Ba Dao, and he was even better than blue.
However, the weak-looking Chu Pingzhi in front of him had a light and treacherous sword in his hand, which forced him to defend with a sword several times. One must know that the essence of a Ba Dao is to break everything.
Suddenly, Gui Hai swung the saber with a single swing, dodging a few meters away from Chu Pingzhi.
Chu Pingzhi laughed lightly, turned his sword backwards and said, "You are fighting heartily, why don't you stop fighting?"
Guihai Yidao still didn't show any emotion on his face, he said coldly: "Because you are worth my trick."
After hearing this, Chu Pingzhi was slightly taken aback and said, "What is it?"
"Unfeeling cut."
Guihai Yidao slightly raised his head, staring at Chu Pingzhi with emotionless eyes.
Chu Pingzhi was even more curious, and asked, "What is Heartless Slash?"
"The Unfeeling Mountain Villa, where I studied art, is a place that doesn't respect life. My master Ba Dao teaches his apprentices the methods of relentless righteousness, pity, love, relatives and friends. A person must kill each other within seven years. The seven good friends of own are his personal disciples, so they can learn his heartless slash. And I killed seven good friends of own in seven years, and finally realized the heart method of ruthless slash: ruthless, merciless, merciless Love, after the end of relatives and friends, is the end of heaven and earth, gods and demons. Between heaven and earth, there is only one sword. There is only one sword between heaven and earth. This sword is so terrifying that no Saber Technique can match it. ".
