Dragon Pattern Roll Set

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao left the boat and returned to the shore, Zhao Pu came to ask what was going on, Zhan Zhao was a little depressed, and Bai Yutang just spread his hands, expressing that - he ran away.

Zhao Pu frowned, "Walking by water? I arranged for people to follow me underwater."

While he was talking, he saw a shadow guard in lake green clothes swimming up from the water, "Marshal."

Zhao Pu nodded and asked, "How is it?"

"Yin Hou asked us to come back." The shadow guard replied.

"What?" Zhan Zhao was surprised, "My grandfather followed?"

"We followed Meng Qing. There used to be a waterway under the water. Meng Qing was very good at water. When we could hardly keep up, Yin Hou came." Yingwei said, "He asked us to come back, and he and Tianzun went after him."

The shadow guard was still puzzled, "Marquis Yin can talk even in the water."

Zhan Zhao couldn't help laughing, "He didn't speak, he transmitted his voice to you through internal force."

The shadow guard looked admiring, "Wow! It's amazing."

Zhao Pu looked at the sky, "You came back when he asked you to come back?"

"My lord, we can't catch up." The shadow guard said, "Then Tianzun went up from the water, and saw a white shadow flash past and then disappeared."

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang looked at each other, a little worried, would it be dangerous for the two of them to follow alone?

"Where's Xu Mengyao?" Zhao Pu asked Ziying.

"Heiying and the others went to follow, just now it seemed to be the direction of returning to Mengfangyuan." Ziying replied.

"Then what should we do?" Gongsun asked, "Really wait for the meeting behind the scenes at the Huxin Pavilion tomorrow... ah!"

Before Gongsun finished speaking, Zhao Pu suddenly pulled him back.

Gongsun staggered, Zhao Pu was a little impatient just now, and exerted a little more strength. Hearing Gongsun yelling, he quickly let go.

Gongsun was about to fall, but Zhao Pu caught him quickly.

At the same time, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang took a step back...they heard a sound from above, as if something was falling down.

At the same time, Yin Hou's voice said, "Ah! Sorry."

……

As soon as the voice fell, a person fell heavily in front of everyone.

As soon as Zhan Zhao and the others frowned... they saw that the one who fell was Meng Qing, who was hit by acupuncture points and fell to the ground unable to move.

Everyone was stunned, and subconsciously raised their faces to look up at the sky together... They saw Yin Hou carrying a person on his back, and followed him, it was the injured King of Fangs.

Putting the Fang King on the ground, Gongsun hurried over to check, frowning, "He suffered serious internal injuries."

Yin Hou nodded.

At this time, Tianzun fell from above, holding a person in his hand.

"Let that man run away and catch a little girl." As he spoke, he pushed the person in his hand towards Meng Qing.

It was Xu Mengyao who was captured by Tianzun.

Such a coincidence, a few shadow guards were coming back to report to Zhao Pu that Xu Mengyao was lost... Unexpectedly, they saw Xu Mengyao who fell to the side, and the shadow guards were also stunned.

Zhao Pu glanced at them, which means—you don't give me any credit.

A few shadow guards stood aside silently, thinking that Yinhou and Tianzun had already made a move, so naturally there was no chance for them to show off.

Now everyone is a little confused about the situation.

Seeing that Zhan Zhao was still confused, Yin Hou stretched out his hand and patted him, saying, "How can it be possible to let people bully you to the head of the Demon Palace, I will naturally save my people by myself."

Zhan Zhao sighed -- that's right, who is his grandfather? This means that now that he's older, he's so quiet and doesn't move. Thinking back then, he was a frightening existence.

Meng Qing and Xu Mengyao couldn't move, they fell to the ground and looked at everyone.

Mo Xu and Hong Jiuniang have all arrived, and Master Bao and Grand Master Pang also came with their people.

Seeing that Mo Kun was seriously injured, Mo Xu went over to ask Gongsun about the situation.

Gongsun gave Fang Wang an injection, saying that the situation was not good, and asked everyone to quickly carry Meng Kun back to the Zhan Mansion, and he wanted careful diagnosis and treatment.

So, everyone sent Meng Kun to the Zhan Mansion, and Zhao Pu wanted to go back, but Tianzun dragged him and said, "Oh, there are still people who haven't been caught yet. There are too many people and we won't mention it. I know the way and bring them back." You go."

"Who else is there?" Zhao Pu asked.

"It's all from the original Jinding Mountain, the Jinding leader and the fake toad are both there." Tianzun said.

Zhao Pu hurriedly sent Ouyang Shaozheng and Long Qiaoguang to follow Tianzun and arrest those people.

……

Shan said that Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang, who had followed the crowd back to the Zhan Mansion, asked about the situation of Marquis Yin with some puzzlement.

It turns out that Yinhou and Tianzun had planned to follow Meng Qing long ago. The so-called night has long dreams, so they must find Meng Kun as soon as possible, catch Meng Qing, and find out the instigator behind the scenes.

However, when they chased after them, they only captured Meng Qing, Xu Mengyao, a mob from the original Jinding Mountain, and many strange kilns, but the mysterious "behind the scene" in the legend has never been seen.

Standing aside, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang felt quite ashamed. They couldn't help at the critical moment because they didn't know how to water, and they still had to rely on Tianzun and Yinhou.

The fourth son came out to help Gongsun pass on the prescription, and asked the shadow guards to go to the pharmacy to buy medicine.

Zhan Zhao grabbed the fourth son and asked, "How is the situation?"

The fourth son frowned and shook his head, and said, "The situation is not good, Dad said, the internal organs were damaged, and the treatment was too late."

Yin Hou frowned.

Just as Mo Xu was about to walk over to Meng Qing, Meng Qing's father had already arrived. When he heard it, he slapped him angrily and grabbed his son's collar, "Are you human? Why did you hurt your grandfather!"

Meng Qing was shaken by his father expressionlessly, and then sneered, "You still want to lie to me?"

His father was stunned, frowning at Meng Qing, and behind him, Meng Qing's brothers also looked at each other in blank dismay.

"I wasn't born by you at all." Meng Qing's face turned cold, "Isn't it?"

Father Meng looked at Meng Qing in surprise.

Zhan Zhao looked at Yin Hou curiously, what does that mean—why isn't Meng Qing his own?

Yin Hou blinked and shrugged, indicating that he didn't know either.

Everyone was even more puzzled.

Meng Qing sneered, "You don't know, do you? Why don't you ask King Fang, how did I get here? If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't be as mediocre as I am now."

Everyone looked at Meng Qing's father, only to see that his face was pale at this time.

Zhan Zhao looked at Mo Xu and Hong Jiuniang again.

Hong Jiuniang was even more confused, and Blue Fox was also surprised, "Why isn't it my own? We all know your mother has a big belly, and we even celebrated with wine after giving birth to you."

"You've all been deceived." Meng Qing sneered, looked at Zhan Zhao, then at Bai Yutang, "Now that I'm a prisoner, I have nothing to say, but it doesn't matter."

"What doesn't matter?" Bao Zheng asked him with a frown.

Meng Qing sneered again and again, looking at Bai Yutang, "You are wrong about one thing. I am not a slave but a master. Although I am not a righteous master, I am not doing things for others, but for myself. There is no other way, you still have use, so I have to keep you One life, unfortunately... I can't see the ending where your life would be worse than death."

Zhan Zhao frowned, but Bai Yutang grabbed him when he wanted to walk over, which means - tell him not to get angry.

Yin Hou was also confused, isn't Meng Qing the grandson of Prince Fang?Then why did King Fang want to pretend that his daughter-in-law was pregnant and gave birth to a son?

Zhao Pu felt that something was wrong, so he asked Ouyang Shaozheng to lock up Meng Qing and Xu Mengyao first, and everyone turned to ask Meng Qing's father.

Meng Qing's father's name is Meng Tan. He is average in martial arts. He is the second generation of the Demon Palace. He is basically engaged in business. He is in love with his first wife and has many children.

Seeing everyone looking at him, Meng Tan had no choice but to kneel in front of Yin Hou to admit his mistake, and told what happened back then.

It turned out that Meng Tan's wife was not pregnant, but one day, Meng Tan was called into the study by his father, Meng Kun, and told him to let her daughter-in-law pretend to be pregnant.

There are a lot of people in the magic palace, and they usually live very scatteredly. Meng Tan's wife doesn't leave the house all the year round, so many people don't know her current situation very well, so Meng Tan asked her wife to pretend that there are already nine. Looks like a month pregnant.

On the day she "gives birth", King Fang secretly sent a baby to Meng Tan.

Meng Tan was also very puzzled at the time, but Meng Kun only told him that this child was the child of an old man of his, and it was very pitiful that both parents died, so he wanted to raise him like his own flesh and blood with Meng Tan's family.There are many people in the magic palace, if you tell everyone that the child is adopted, it is inevitable that someone will tell it in the future, and the child may trace the identity of the biological parents, and it will inevitably be sad.It's better to just raise him as your own son.

Naturally, Meng Tan had no objection. After discussing with his wife, the daughter-in-law nodded and agreed when she saw that the child was cute.

So, there is this stubble.The couple and King Fang really loved Meng Qing as their own children and grandchildren, and even loved several other brothers and sisters.

"Why didn't you say that before?" Mo Xu frowned.

Meng Tan was helpless, "Father won't let me tell."

Everyone can't blame him. Fang Fang Wang Meng Kun's sons are very filial, so it's natural that the old man is right.

……

At this time, Ouyang Shaozheng returned from outside, and all the remnants of the Jinding Sect were arrested.

It turned out that everyone was hiding in a cloth workshop in Changzhou Prefecture. The cloth workshop often used pots to dye cloth, so a large number of furnaces and tripods did not arouse suspicion.

Ouyang Shaozheng searched the cloth shop carefully, and there were a lot of medicines hidden inside, some of them were pills like Wangyousan, and the other was gray stone powder.Because he didn't quite understand the toxicity of the medicine, Ouyang Shaozheng didn't let people get close to him, and waited for Gongsun to check it before dealing with it.

……

Grand Master Pang asked Yin Hou, "Then Meng Qing, how should we deal with it?"

Yin Hou raised his eyebrows and said, "The people in my devil's palace, if they break the law, they will be dealt with according to the law."

The grand master nodded and looked at Bao Zheng aside.

Bao Zheng frowned, "He seems to know a lot, but he probably won't say it."

"When Meng Kun wakes up, it's better to ask him what's going on, and then ask Meng Qing." Tianzun folded his arms and felt that this matter was a bit complicated, so he asked Bai Yutang what he wanted to eat, saying that he was hungry.

Zhan Fu asked Tianzun what he wanted to eat, and Tianzun took a look at Bai Yutang, which meant—to ask him to buy it.

Bai Yutang was helpless and asked Tianzun, "What do you want to eat?"

"Eat noodles." Tianzun said.

Bai Yutang went outside to buy noodles for Tianzun.

As soon as the others left, Tianzun approached Zhan Zhao and asked, "Is there something on my mind in Yutang?"

Not to mention that Bai Yutang has something on his mind, Zhan Zhao also has something on his mind.

Zhan Zhao nodded, and told about Meng Qing asking Bai Yutang to kill someone, and Bai Yutang asked the man behind the scenes to meet tomorrow at Huxinting.

"Oh?" Yin Hou was surprised, "Then it's too early for us to do it. If we wait until the Huxin Pavilion tomorrow, the person behind the scenes may be caught."

"Actually, that's not the point." Zhan Zhao frowned, and said, "I'm just curious, why did he ask Bai Yutang to kill so many people? Is there anyone we can't kill that only Bai Yutang can kill?"

Everyone touched their chins—yes, it was a little strange.

……

Bai Yutang walked to the door, didn't go too far, and went to the restaurant opposite to buy a bowl of noodles.

The buddy hurried to get ready, and Bai Yutang was waiting at the door.

At this time, a child ran over suddenly, looking like a child playing on the side of the road.

"uncle."

Bai Yutang lowered his head and looked at the child.

The child pointed to the alley not far away, and said, "Someone said to wait for you there."

Bai Yutang raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who?"

"A man in black." The child ran away after finishing the message.

Bai Yutang looked at the alley and walked over.

There are many streets and alleys in Changzhou Prefecture, criss-crossing, and some alleys are relatively hidden.

When Bai Yutang walked to the entrance of the alley, he didn't see anyone inside, so he frowned slightly and walked a little further in.

Turning a corner, you can see a man in black standing under the eaves of the back door of the Zhan Mansion, holding a black umbrella.

Bai Yutang looked at the sky subconsciously - it wasn't raining.

Standing a few steps away from the man, Bai Yutang looked up.

The man turned his face slowly, the umbrella always covered his eyes, only showing his nose and mouth.

Judging by the stubble on the chin and the overall appearance, I guess he is in his 30s?It doesn't look like a Central Plains person, with a high nose bridge and a sharper chin than a Central Plains person.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

When the voice came, Bai Yutang froze for a moment, it sounded familiar.

While speaking, the man slowly raised the umbrella, Bai Yutang saw the face under the umbrella, looked at the person in front of him in surprise, and said for a long time, "Why is it you?"

"Hehe." The man smiled, "You are not happy to see me?"

Bai Yutang seemed a little puzzled, "What are you doing in the Central Plains?"

"I'm asking you to help me kill someone." The man said it easily.

Bai Yutang frowned, "You are the one who ordered Meng Qing?"

"Hehe." The man smiled and shook his head, "Of course not, but I was the one who advised him not to kill you... By the way, he is my younger brother."

Bai Yutang was taken aback.

"Half-brother, as you know, besides having more soldiers and more women, my father has more children. Haha." The man seemed quite happy, "Unfortunately, Meng Qing worshiped that old man for no reason, so I have done so many things. I came here to find you, but I happened to see my younger brother, who was eager to claim credit, doing something stupid, so I discussed with him and asked him to invite you to meet me to discuss things."

Bai Yutang frowned, "Who do you want me to kill?"

"Who else?" The man pointed to his nose, "My father."

"Are you drunk?" Bai Yutang asked.

"I'm very sober." The man pointed at Bai Yutang, "I want you to help me usurp the throne, of course, my stupid brother doesn't know, otherwise he should have killed you early in the morning, haha."

Bai Yutang looked at him speechlessly, like looking at a lunatic talking nonsense.

"If you don't help me, my father will send troops to the Central Plains soon." That man said.

"What?" Bai Yutang was surprised.

"He's almost ready, Liao and Xixia are already under control, and the buffer zone at the gate of the Song Dynasty is gone." The man raised his eyebrows, "Otherwise, why do you think Meng Qing is still studying gray bone mirrors while planting magic flowers? ?”

Bai Yutang frowned deeply - if it's true, it's no small matter at this time.

"He thought that if my father accepted him, he had to prove his abilities. Originally, the plan this time was quite good. It would cause disputes between the good and evil factions in the Central Plains. After the chaos in the world, the imperial court would naturally take care of one and lose the other, and it would be much easier to attack the border. "The man shook his head, "It's a pity that Meng Qing is simple-minded and emotional, but it seems that people of our blood will be carried away by emotions, huh?"

"Why should I be able to kill your father?" Bai Yutang was a little puzzled, "It's safer to ask Zhao Pu or my master and Yinhou than to ask me, or you can ask Zhao Zhen directly?"

"Haha, don't underestimate yourself. It's such a coincidence that only you can kill him in this world. There is no one else except you!"

Bai Yutang was even more puzzled, and was about to ask a few more questions when he heard Zhan Zhao's voice from outside the alley, "Yutang?"

Afterwards, there was a voice from the fourth son, "Baibai?"

The man put away the umbrella, "I'll contact you later for the specific situation, say hello to Zhao Pu for me, and remind him by the way that it's time to go back to Black Wind City."

After finishing speaking, the man flashed and disappeared into the alley.

Bai Yutang frowned, now there was only confusion.

He turned around and walked out of the alley, just running into Zhan Zhao who was looking for him with the fourth son.

Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes to look at the alley behind Bai Yutang, and asked, "What happened?"

Bai Yutang seemed a little hesitant.

Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows.

Seeing that he was about to blow his hair, Bai Yutang said, "Don't worry, it's not that I don't want to tell you, I just want to organize it and see how I can tell you more clearly."

Zhan Zhao's complexion improved slightly.

At this time, Ziying found the pot, "The Fang King woke up, but Gongsun said he was going to die."

Zhan Zhao's face turned pale, and Gongsun even said that he couldn't be saved? !

The three hurried in.

At this time, the courtyard was full of people, almost all the old and young in the magic palace came, and many people were crying.

Yinhou and the others were in the room, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang hurried in too.

At this time, Fang Fang's face was ashen, and he no longer had the high-spirited demeanor of martial arts supremacy, but was an old man in his dying years.

Zhan Zhao used to stand behind Yin Hou, looking at the old man on the bed, feeling uncomfortable.

Gongsun said that the old man's internal injuries were very vicious, and it should have been caused by a sneak attack when he was unprepared. The internal strength was mixed with poison, and the internal organs were necrotic, and it was difficult for a god to save him.He tried his best, but he could only stabilize for a while, let him hold on for another hour to tell his last words, and at the same time, try to walk as painlessly as possible.

Meng Kun was sober at this moment, and when he saw the serious expressions on everyone's faces, he smiled, "I'm already over 100 years old, so why don't I go a step earlier? What's so sad about it?"

Yin Hou frowned slightly, reached out and patted his shoulder.

Meng Kun told Yin Hou that he really deserved what he deserved. If he hadn't adopted Meng Qing back then, he probably wouldn't have caused so many troubles today.

Yin Hou was puzzled, "What is Meng Qing's birth?"

"His biological mother is one of my nieces." Meng Kun said indifferently, "She was raped back then, she was unmarried and pregnant. She was very weak and passed away after giving birth to the child. I adopted the child and thought he was born Poor, so I gave it to my son Meng Tan to raise him carefully. I thought he would grow up in love and care, and he would be as kind and gentle as her mother, but I didn't expect that he had the blood of that person after all, and also inherited the sinister and viciousness of that person , the six relatives do not recognize."

Everyone was a little puzzled - who?

"Who are you talking about?" Yin Hou was puzzled. If there is such a villain in the world who bullied Meng Kun's niece, with his character, he would not run to tear that person into pieces, but choose to defend him. the secret...

"Oh... don't say anything." Meng Kun shook his head.

Everyone felt that the breath was stuck in their throats and they couldn't let it go, so they stopped talking when it came to their mouths.But at this time Meng Kun was very weak and it was not easy to force him, so everyone scratched and scratched their lungs anxiously.

And when everyone was in a hurry, Bai Yutang suddenly said a name, "Xuanyuan Jie, the demon emperor of the North Sea."

Everyone was stunned.

Meng Kun looked at Bai Yutang in surprise, "You...you are young, how could you know?"

Everyone looked up - everyone knew the name Beihai Demon Emperor.

Beihai is located in the extreme arctic ice sheet, covered with ice and snow all year round, it is very cold. It is in the north of Liao Kingdom and Xixia, and has no border with Song Dynasty.Xuanyuan Jie, the demon emperor of the North Sea, may be the most famous tyrant in the world. He has many wives and concubines. It is said that there are thousands of concubines in the harem, hundreds of sons, and countless daughters. He doesn't treat them like daughters.

Xuanyuan Jie is very mysterious, but because he is too far away from the Song Dynasty, Zhao Pu and others have never met him or interacted with him. They only heard about his various vicious and brutal behaviors, so he is called the Demon Emperor.

"Beihai..." Zhao Pu frowned, "It's too far away."

"Not far."

Meng Kun smiled wryly and shook his head, "I heard from Meng Qing that Liao, Xia and other countries have been controlled by the Xuanyuan family."

Zhao Pu was stunned, and looked at Ouyang Shaozheng.

Ouyang opened his mouth wide, "Isn't it? Then how big is his country? Why is there no news from Lao He?"

Everyone was immersed in the somewhat sudden news at this time, Zhao Pu couldn't sit still anymore, and asked Heiying Baiying to rush back to Heifeng City to ask He Yihang.

The grand master stroked his beard and said to Bao Zheng, "It's really not good!"

Zhan Zhao looked at Bai Yutang with puzzled eyes, as if asking him how he knew.

So, Bai Yutang told the story of meeting that man in the alley just now.

"According to his appearance, I may have seen it too..." Zhao Pu frowned, "The No. 30 eighth son of the Demon Emperor, Xuanyuan Po, King of the Northwest Sea?"

Bai Yutang nodded.

"You guys know each other?" Zhan Zhao asked Zhao Pu.

"I met him once before. I heard that Xuanyuan Po is the only normal one among the many sons of the Demon Emperor of the North Sea." Zhao Pu said, looking at Bai Yutang, "It's you, how do you know him?"

Bai Yutang said, "I met him when I was traveling in Beihai. I was drinking in a restaurant. He took the initiative to chat with me and introduced the customs of Beihai."

Zhan Zhao squinted his eyes at Bai Yutang.

Bai Yutang was helpless, "I only met him once, and I can't even count him as a friend."

Yin Hou frowned slightly, "He asked you to help him seek to usurp the throne? Why is it you?"

Bai Yutang shrugged.

Tianzun looked at Bai Yutang, then at Meng Kun, and stroked his chin.

Seeing that he seemed hesitant to speak, everyone looked at him. After a long time, Tianzun suddenly grabbed Bai Yutang's wrist, "Go, go back to Tianshan with Master, it's too dangerous outside!"

Bai Yutang was powerless and tugged at him, "Don't make trouble."

"If what Meng Qing said is true, then we really have to deal with it." Zhao Pu frowned, and something big was about to happen!

……

That night, Fang Wang Meng Kun passed away peacefully in his sleep without pain.

Yin Hou took everyone in the Demon Palace and took his body back to the cemetery on the back mountain of the Demon Palace for burial.

It was also the first time for everyone to set foot in the Demon Palace. Unlike the dark castle they imagined, the Demon Palace is full of white jade buildings, which are so majestic that it is shocking.

Bai Yutang and Zhan Zhao attended Meng Kun's funeral together. Zhan Zhao was a little sorry. He wanted to bring Bai Yutang to the Demon Palace to meet his family early in the morning, but unexpectedly, he came to attend a funeral.

Bai Yutang didn't care, he held Zhan Zhao's hand during the funeral and said in a low voice, "Only family members can come to the funeral."

The coffin was buried, and after three days of funeral affairs...

On this day, Hei Ying and Bai Ying returned, and the shadow guard sent by Zhao Zhen from the imperial city to deliver the letter also arrived.

Hei Ying and Bai Ying sent a letter from He Yihang.

Zhao Pu took a look, and He Yihang has indeed received a lot of news recently, saying that the interior of the Liao Kingdom, Xixia and Uyghur has been soaked by the snobbery of the North Sea Demon Emperor. .

When He Yihang received the news, he still felt that it was not credible. Although the Demon Emperor of the North Sea ruled the North Sea and was powerful, but after all, it was located in an extremely cold place, and separated from such a large land as the Liao Kingdom and Xixia, it could be said that it was far from the Central Plains. relation.

But after He Yihang sent spies to investigate, he found that the situation was really abnormal.

On the other hand, Zhao Zhen sent an urgent official document, asking Zhao Pu and the others to return to the court quickly. Liao and Xixia sent secret envoys to Song Dynasty to ask for help. Beihai was ambitious and seemed to have the tendency to annex the world.

Thus, the case of the Changzhou government was closed, and everyone took Meng Qing and Xu Mengyao, who had been captured alive, on their way home.

Zhao Pu asked Ouyang Shaozheng and Long Qiaoguang to rush back to Heifeng City with some troops. He first went back to Kaifeng to meet Zhao Zhen. After discussing, he immediately took Zou Liang and the soldiers there.

And Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang also felt that this trip was very strange, why was Xuanyuan Po so sure that Bai Yutang could help him usurp the throne?
