Dengwen Drum.

It was set up by the former Taizu Song Dao at Zhumen.

In order to let those who have grievances or urgent cases beat the drum to report to the heaven.

However, the three generations of Song monarchs after Song Dao gradually abandoned this Dengwen Drum. Although there were iron tablets and golden inscriptions set up by Taizu, and the "Tai Gao" was as high as a mountain, the people did not dare to play this drum, so that the Song Dynasty declined from then on.

Later, Simingshan obtained the land.

Xu Xing continued the old dynasty's laws and regulations and re-set Dengwen Drum.

It has only been sixteen years since the founding of the country. Although the sea is clear and the river is calm, there are many unjust cases among the people. Because there are no officials next to the Dengwen Drum to intercept the people who come to petition. Therefore, this Dengwen Drum basically rings once every three or five days. The officers and soldiers stationed at Zhumen are no longer surprised.

"Your Majesty, are the petitioners this time... Prince Dao and Prince Wei?"

The person in charge of handling petitions on the drum was none other than Queen Zhao Yunniang.

After Xu Xing sought immortality, she took the initiative to take on this job that all officials in the court were "afraid of" in order to win a good reputation among the people, and to make decisions for the people.

In Kunhua Palace, Xu Xing was looking through the memorial submitted to him by Shang Xian, the supervisor of the East Factory, which recorded the various intelligence that the three intelligence agencies, the Night Patrol, the East Factory, and the West Factory, had explored over the past year after receiving the tasks he ordered.

Among them, the Yu family, a prominent family in Danzhou, was suspected of meeting a mysterious person in the 13th year of Tiande. This incident was learned by the Yu family servant who was responsible for delivering tea, and reported to the Night Patrol.

There were also several abnormal behaviors of the families, which were presented one by one in the memorial.

But——

Besides that, there was no other movement.

When Xu Xing saw the results in the memorial, he was calm and not angry at all.

It is not an easy task to rely on mortal intelligence agencies to spy on monks. The three major intelligence agencies compete with each other, and it is not easy to get this information.

"Prince Dao? And Prince Wei?"

Putting down the memorial, Xu Xing raised his eyebrows, a little puzzled.

In the fifteenth year of Tiande, before he returned to Shenjing, he went to Kunwang Mansion first. From Kunwang Changkun, he learned that Yao Dang, the Prince of Dao, was suspected of meeting Prince Wei and suddenly died.

At that time, he had guessed that it might be Prince Wei who took Yao Dang away and embarked on the immortal path.

After all, when the fate of [righteous thief] collapsed, he glimpsed a corner of fate and knew that his second brother was suspected of embarking on the immortal path later...

Since the two of them came to see him.

Xu Xing would naturally not be timid in his heart.

So he sent people to prepare a banquet and invited the two to come in.

...

A quarter of an hour later.

In Kunhua Palace, wine and food were already prepared.

The disguised Yao and Prince Wei entered the case seat respectively under the leadership of the eunuch.

The three of them talked about their brotherhood in Siming Mountain.

"To be honest, fourth brother..."

King Wei raised a glass of wine, drank it, and said: "Back then, Taiwei Wei Wentong was defeated by you, fourth brother. Later, when I saw that my eldest brother listened to you in everything, I predicted that you would take over my eldest brother's power in the future..., so I thought of finding another way to survive, and when you took over my eldest brother's power, I could also help my eldest brother and save his life..."

Although the fact that King Yao Dang was taken over by Emperor Tiande was a taboo topic in the court.

But he, Yao Dang and Xu Xing were sworn brothers, so he didn't have to worry about this.

In addition, the three of them have now sought immortality, so there is no need to worry too much about some mundane matters.

"I never thought that you, my fourth brother, are kind and righteous."

"You took away the power of the eldest brother, but you didn't kill him. Instead, you gave him so many favors.

We are all rebel kings, and we won't talk about those empty words of loyalty between the monarch and his subjects. King Wei saw it clearly. King Yao Dang was good at leading a small force in Siming Mountain, but when it comes to fighting for the dragon, King Yao Dang doesn't have that ability.

Hearing this, Yao Dang looked ashamed.

"After conquering Guanxi Road, I was the first to think of disregarding the brotherhood..."

He added.

In fact, he understood it afterwards. Liang Buyan had already surrendered to Xu Xing, and Liang Buyan asked him to strike first, which was actually It was to hand Xu Xing a knife and a handle.

But the incident had already passed, and Xu Xing handled the aftermath well.

Instead of killing him, he was treated well...

He had done his best!

After hearing these words, although Xu Xing didn't know what the two were thinking, he didn't mind continuing to talk along with them.

They exchanged pleasantries for about half an hour.

Finally, King Wei Tian spoke frankly, "Fourth brother sent the patrol officers and the guards of the East and West factories to the major families to inquire about the news and spy on intelligence. If second brother is not wrong, fourth brother should know that there are cultivators who intend to attack the court and disrupt your country?"

The voice fell.

Xu Xing's pupils shrank slightly, and he roughly understood the purpose of the two.

He had sent out the three major intelligence agencies for a year, and King Dao Tian and King Wei Tian came at this time. If it is said that they took into account the brotherhood, it is certainly there, but more of it should be for the price.

"Second brother...how did you know about this? "

Xu Xing didn't smile, his expression was a little cold.

If he could find out who was plotting against him at a reasonable price, he would be happy to do so. But during this period, he couldn't act too easy to be manipulated.

"Do you know the Yama Palace, one of the ten major sects in Donghuangzhou, my fourth brother?"

Wei Tianwang didn't think it was strange. If it were him, he would also choose to be alert like Xu Xing when he suddenly heard this.

After he finished saying this, he pondered for a moment and said: "There is a shadow killing hall in the Yama Palace, which specializes in hunting down talented disciples of rival sects. The fourth brother is a human king, and he worships the giant sword Taoist Master as his teacher. Ranked thirteenth on the list of palace killers."

"Three years ago, Bi Qing from Yama Palace and four others took the task of assassinating you."

"Bi Qing and the other five are inner disciples of Yama Palace, and they are all immortal practitioners. Because the true disciples of Feiyu Palace's master and apprentice line all have fourth-level magic talismans with them, they dare not act arbitrarily. "

"They made two plans."

"First, instruct Yu Ci and other ordinary ministers to test the royal family, and at the same time disrupt your social destiny and destroy your human and royal destiny. Second, five people go to Dieshan Island, form a killing formation, and first use the second-level puppet to force you to use A fourth-level magic talisman, and then five people will cut through the mess with their swords and kill you directly..."

"I just never thought that fourth brother, you would return to the mortal world first, leaving them in vain."

Having said this, King Weitian smiled.

Compared with Wangchuanhai, Feiyu Immortal Palace is not far away from its sect’s residence. If Xu Xingxing uses a fourth-level magic talisman, it will definitely arouse the vigilance of Feiyu Immortal Palace. At that time, the five inner disciples of Yama Luo Shrine will If you can't even escape, you will be killed by the monks of Feiyu Fairy Palace.

This is also the reason why the five killers have not moved until now.

"How could the second brother know so clearly?"

Xu Xing looked at King Weitian suspiciously.

He thought that King Weitian only knew some trivial details. He never thought that King Weitian knew everything about Yama Palace and the arrangement of these five people.

Unless King Weitian is one of these five people.

“Fourth brother’s guess is good.

King Weitian nodded, no longer hiding his aura, exuding the realm of his early Immortal Base.

"Second brother is one of the five monks who assassinated you."

He nodded.

"Early stage of Immortal Foundation?"

Xu Xing frowned deeply.

In less than twenty years, King Wei Tian was able to break through the early stage of the Immortal Foundation, which greatly exceeded his expectations.

However, he carefully screened the aura of King Wei Tian and found that King Wei Tian's magic power was actually much weaker than when he was in the early stage of Immortal Base.

"At first, Bi Qing found me because I was from Fengxi Country and was familiar with him. And I also wanted to return to the world and see my elder brother, so I took on this task."

"I saw that Fourth Brother, you dealt well with your eldest brother and your former brothers, and you were benevolent and righteous. So when you went to the Yu family, you deliberately exposed your traces to let your subordinates know..."

Immediately afterwards, King Weitian said these words, dispelling Xu Xing's suspicion.

He seemed to know that Xu Xing was confused about his cultivation, so he smiled bitterly and said: "Fourth brother, you have a family line and a master-disciple line in Feiyu Immortal Palace, and the same is true in Yama Palace. Yama Palace is divided into There are eight outer palaces and four inner palaces. Among them, the disciples of the Shadow Killing Palace have all practiced the "Shadow Killing Demon Technique".

"By cultivating this demonic skill, the physique will be the same as that of the immortals born innately, but the price is that the lifespan is only half of that of the immortal monks. Only two hundred years of life. The immortal foundation built at the same time is far from being comparable to you, the real descendants of immortal talents. Compare."

There is no free benefit in this world.

In Feiyu Immortal Palace, which is known as a decent place, life is not easy for the disciples at the bottom level. Either marry into a noble family, and the path to immortality will be controlled by the noble family from now on. Either he joins the master-disciple lineage and becomes a monk stationed abroad. Before entering the master-disciple lineage, he is treated as cannon fodder and consumables by the sect.

As for the Yama Palace, since it is a demonic path, it is even more difficult for the lower-level monks.

Basically, the low-level monks don’t even have a choice.

"Second brother came to see me today..."

"yes……"

Xu Xing took a serious look at King Wei Tian.

If nothing unexpected happens, the information Gong Yangyi obtained came from the hands of King Weitian. It's just that King Weitian at that time probably also wanted to have two boats, and laid out a chess piece in advance so that he could form a good relationship when he was in a dilemma in the future.

Otherwise, just send him or Zhao Yunniang a secret message directly.

Why bother to raise doubts?

However, he didn't want to expose King Weitian's disguise.

He and King Weitian didn't have any brotherhood, so King Weitian had done a good job.

"Recently, Bi Qing planned to withdraw from the sect, but he thought he was unlucky and thought his mission had failed."

"Unexpectedly, a monk from Feiyu Immortal Palace contacted Bi Qing."

King Wei Tian's face became more solemn, "If Bi Qing gave up the mission, the second brother would not be too talkative and come here. But Bi Qing colluded with the monks of Feiyu Immortal Palace, and the situation has changed."

"What?"

"Someone colluded..."

Although Xu Xing's expression remained unchanged at this moment, he was shocked in his heart.

Guard against day and night, it is difficult to guard against house thieves.

Someone is assassinating him in Yama Palace. As long as he has clever methods and strong strength, resolving the crisis is still within his control.

But if someone from the sect deals with him...

It is far more difficult to deal with than the assassins of Yama Shrine.

He is a first-class true disciple and a disciple of the Great Sword Dao Lord. If someone within the sect were to deal with him, their strength and power would be at least at the level of Dao Dan, and even at the level of Nascent Soul Dao Lord.

Even though Dao Lord Nascent Soul and True Lord Dao Dan will not end up personally, the means and resources they can use are definitely far superior to ordinary disciples of Yama Palace.

"Two years later."

"In the Feiyu Immortal Palace, the Hangu Mountain Secret Realm is opened. They used their means to send you in. Because in the Hangu Mountain Secret Realm, there are three top-grade light-fixing talismans that were refined by the Divine Lord. ”

"On the way to Hangu Mountain, they will use the excuse that there is a fault in the flying boat, and then put you down, fourth brother, on the way. Then, the five of us will go to assassinate you..."

"During this period, the guardian elders will also be away from the scene for various reasons."

King Weitian slowly told them the plan told to them by the traitor in Feiyu Immortal Palace.

This plan seems simple.

But often the simplest plans are less likely to go wrong.

First of all, entering the secret realm of Hangu Mountain is an opportunity given to Xu Xing by the sect. With the help of the top-grade light-fixing talisman, in the small realm of the "Xuanguang Manifestation Talisman" in the late stage of Immortal Foundation, it can not only speed up Xu Xing's cultivation speed by 40%, but also increase Xu Xingning's first-grade elixir return by 20% when the jade liquid returns elixir. probability.

You must know that only the Immaculate Immortal Foundation and Jiuzhong Yunxia can help the monks to increase the chance of condensing a first-grade returning elixir by up to 30%.

The value of a top-quality light-fixing talisman can be imagined.

How could Xu Xing not go?

If you don’t go, you are just indolent and have no ambition to compete!

In addition, something happened to the flying boat on the road, and the guardian elder was not at the scene for an excuse... It seemed that there were flaws everywhere, but in fact, it did not violate the sect's laws.

"Who is this traitor?"

Xu Xing stared at King Wei Tian closely, not wanting to let go of any of King Wei Tian's expressions when he spoke, and asked in a deep voice.

"I don't know!"

King Weitian shook his head.

"They're not going to lie to us little minions."

He sighed.

Compared with the value of Xu Xing, a first-class true disciple, the value of their five Shadow Killing Hall disciples is not worth mentioning. The traitor in Feiyu Immortal Palace would not go to such trouble to murder them.

After hearing this, Xu Xing nodded in relief, expressing his understanding.

If he was a traitor in Feiyu Immortal Palace, he would not throw the blame to the disciples of Yama Immortal Palace so easily.

"And that's why I came."

At this time, King Weitian revealed his heart, "First, fourth brother, you are benevolent and righteous in your dealings. This is the prerequisite. Second, although I am not the weakest among the five of them, I am not the strongest either. If something goes wrong, I will The chance of death is quite high. Thirdly, instead of doing this task, we might as well... tell my fourth brother that you are a true disciple of Feiyu Immortal Palace and your future is much better than ours..."

Tell the truth.

If Xu Xing went too far in dealing with King Mou Tian.

Even though he could see the benefits of befriending Xu Xing, the benefits were compared with fate, so he chose fate. Although he narrowly escaped death by assassinating Xu Xing, it was better than being betrayed by him.

The mourning king Yao Dang on the side couldn't help being startled when he saw that there were so many doorways inside.

He thought that the reason why King Weitian came this time was purely for brotherly love.

"That's right. Although I have entered the Yama Palace now, I am still only an outer disciple. If my second brother talks to me too much, it is inevitable that I will be exposed accidentally and show my flaws."

Yao Dang felt ashamed.

He used to be considered a hero, but since Xu Xing took away the power, he indulged in wine pools and meat forests. Drinking and sex harmed his body, resulting in his brain not being as bright as before.

"From today on, quit drinking!"

He made up his mind not to drink too much wine.

…

…

"Since the second brother has given up so much, come and tell me the news."

"Then... as brothers, we can't let you, second brother, go all the way in vain."

Although King Weitian didn't ask for any benefits, Xu Xingjiu could see people's hearts and knew how to deal with things. He immediately took out three thousand spirit shells and two low-grade flying swords from his storage bag, held them up with his magic power, and handed them to King Weitian.

"Fourth brother, I joined the sect not long ago and have been practicing hard in seclusion."

"It's just this small amount of money that makes my second brother laugh."

Xu Xing smiled.

He did not show grudges towards the mourning king Yao Dang. Those who saw it had a share, and gave another thousand spirit shells and a low-grade flying sword to their nominal "eldest brother".

These three low-grade flying swords were the trophies he obtained from killing the pirates sent by Yang Shao.

A low-grade flying sword would not be worth much if it were to be sold.

But buying a new flying sword costs at least one or two thousand spirit shells.

"The true disciple of Feiyu Immortal Palace..."

"Sure enough, he is extremely rich."

King Weitian put Feijian and Lingbei into his storage bag and was secretly surprised.

A low-grade shadow dagger and about a thousand spirit shells. This is all his possessions. But Xu Xing just gave it as a gift, which was far more than his belongings.

Of course, this is also related to the fact that he has not performed many tasks.

The disciples of the Shadow Killing Palace in the Yama Palace are not as good as the monks stationed outside the Feiyu Palace. They are just some cannon fodder trained by the Shadow Killing Palace. They are said to be inner disciples, but they can't even touch the edge of inheritance.

"This move seems to be the right one."

King Weitian was very happy.

Xu Xing is not from a noble family, and he is wealthy, which proves that Xu Xing's own strength is definitely not low. As he guessed, even if the five of them had a chance to successfully assassinate Xu Xing, the winner would never be him.

"After leaving this palace."

"No one knows I've been here."

King Weitian guaranteed Xu Xing.

The reason why Bi Qing and others did not doubt him. It was because when they were in Hupochuan, Yao Dang announced his death and asked the entire army to wear mourning for three days. The real King Weitian has died long ago.

Now, he says this.

It's because good and evil don't coexist.

One is a disciple of Feiyu Immortal Palace, and the other is a disciple of Yama Palace.

If the two of them had any friendship, they would regard the sect's laws as nothing. Even if everything happened for a reason today, if we keep in touch in the future, sooner or later things will leak out.

It's not a good thing for him or Xu Xing.

"Second brother..."

"drink wine!"

Xu Xing raised his glass and clinked glasses with the two of them in the distance.

"Okay, fourth brother!"

"Okay, fourth brother!"

King Mourning Heaven and King Wei Heaven laughed, raised their necks and drank heavily.

…

…

Just like what King Weitian said.

Two months passed.

Xu Xing received a flying letter from the sect, allowing him to enter the Hangu Mountain secret realm in two years.

In the flying book, there is still a spiritual thought from Taoist Master Ju Jian, saying that this secret realm of Hangu Mountain has many benefits, but it is a big opportunity, far beyond the Purple Que Valley.

"Master?"

"Jusword Dao Lord..."

After Xu Xing listened to what Shen Nian said, he fell into deep thought.

However, he quickly calmed down and suppressed the matter in his heart, never thinking about it again.

It’s useless to think too much!

When he was apprenticed, Jujian Daojun said one word: "No one can control the power." No matter how smart you are, under the general trend, you will be crushed into powder. When things are going your way, you can take advantage of them, but when things are not going your way, you need to buck the trend. And this requires strength.
