I will hunt down this world

After regaining some energy, Li Shun was not in a hurry to take a short rest. For him, there were far more important things than this.

He wants to share information with Lian Linxi as soon as possible while he is still impressed with tonight's experience, analyze the situation, and determine the next action plan.

Especially when he was in the state of [Illumination] of Canglong, he captured a lot of snail horn ideas that he would subconsciously ignore on weekdays. These are still clearly in his mind at this moment, but if he goes to sleep now I'm afraid I'll forget it all when I wake up.

In the treacherous situation in Chang'an, Li Shun and Lian Linxi are currently bound together and are completely dependent on each other. The two must try their best to find opportunities to break the situation and protect their lives. To this end, the two must reach an agreement on information exchange. Absolute trust.

Of course, this is not a problem for the couple who have a crush on each other. Lian Linxi is willing to entrust the Taiyue Stone, which is related to his life, to Li Shun. Except for Li Shun's secret related to the corona, the rest of Lian Linxi's relationship with Lian Linxi is not a problem. No reservations.

And Lian Linxi is not only a powerful swordsman, but also an excellent leader who is wise and well-structured.

In just a few years as the law enforcement officer of Xicheng, she has cleaned up the chaotic social landscape of Xicheng. Most of the messy tentacles of guilds and five-party gangsters have been cut off by her. Thinking and judgment are worth relying on.

For example, before the battle tonight, Lian Linxi jumped out of the situation and pointed out a situation that Li Shun was still unsure of - Li Zhao's true intentions were unclear, and he needed to be vigilant, so he should pay attention to find some breakthroughs from An Su.

It can be said that she is a loyal and trustworthy teammate.

After Li Shun sorted it out, he told Lian Linxi everything that happened tonight in detail, and talked about a lot of his own speculations and ideas.

Lian Linxi frowned and pondered for a long time, then pulled out a whiteboard half the size of a wall.

Taking notes on the whiteboard, outlining and organizing thoughts is Xu Miaoyun's habit. Li Shun is too familiar with her, so she learned this without knowing it, and Lian Linxi also learned it without knowing it.

"Generally speaking, you have participated in two things tonight, one is the distribution of interests in Dead Sea Ruins City, and the other is dealing with criminals who appear to be wanted on the black list, but are actually key members of the old Eternal Night Agency, and have been arrested in essence. The hunting and killing of the three corpse gods who stole the possession of the country and wounded seven people."

Li Shun nodded slightly.

"I found that there seemed to be a few suspicious points in it."

Lian Linxi moved her hands lightly, and first wrote down [Overlord Council] on the whiteboard.

Then the [Sanyuan Faction] and the [Foreign Faction] are separated downwards, and from the latter, there are [Shenzhou] and [Yuan Yaojie].

Li Shun originally thought it would stop here, but Lian Linxi kept writing, and from [Shenzhou] down, he divided it into three parts: Zhiyefu, Guild, and Wufangmen.

Li Shun was slightly puzzled. Ordinarily, this place should be the [Company]. In fact, the people who appeared in the competition today were people from all directions, namely Dong Pingchuan representing the Mingguang Sect, Qin Tan representing the Four Towns, and three Yuan's Li Shun and his party and a pair of men and women in white clothes representing the company.

"According to what General Luo said, the council is currently led by the third great sage, Taibai. Not surprisingly, this person is the leader of the Sanyuan faction of the council."

"Ziwei, Taiwei, and Tianshi Sanyuan should be led by three people respectively. Adding the sun and the sun, this should be five people and five votes. That is, among the [Nine Executives], the Sanyuan faction has at least five seats. The foreign factions only have a maximum of four seats, and only with a majority of seats can they occupy a dominant position in the council.”

"For this ratio, 5:4 should be the most reasonable, and the interests transferred by the council to the outside are quite large." Li Shun added.

Lian Linxi nodded and continued:

"Then calculate it based on 4 seats. Shenzhou is so powerful that it is not comparable to Yuan Yaojie, but Yuan Yaojie will definitely have a seat."

"Among the remaining three seats, it is known that one of the seats is likely to belong to the guild's Mingguang, so by analogy, there should be an existence with the same status as Mingguang among the Zhiye Mansion and the Five Party Guys. Among the Nine Obsessions, only in this way can we truly construct a chain of interests equal to that of the Dead Sea Ruins City."

Hearing this remark, some of Li Shun's thoughts seemed to be opened up.

The key lies in "the disappearance of the guild".

Li Shun and Huanguang are too familiar and know each other too well. He knows that the Huanguang Cult is ambitious and ranks on the twelfth day. Power, subconsciously ignore the fact that Ming Guang is still a member of the guild.

But in fact, apart from being the patriarch of the Huanguang sect, Huanguang is also the red banner of the core faction of the guild, and this identity does not seem to be as insignificant as Li Shun once thought.

"In other words... someone is acting tonight."

Lian Linxi stopped writing, and the three characters "Dong Pingchuan" stood out on it.

Chapter 160: Game within game, suit within suit

Dong Pingchuan, the third bishop of the Mingguang Sect, Shengshuai, is also the heir of Dong Zhongtian, the real controller of Zhongtian Society.

On the surface, he is the eldest son of the Zhiming Dong family among the Four Elephant Star Officials. However, he broke free from the shackles of his status and worked hard from a small soldier to a general-level officer. , and even obtained the qualification to be in charge of the extraordinary garrison of Kang Jinlong.

In the garrison system and even Chang'an, Dong Pingchuan's prestige is unmatched by the younger generation.

He can be said to be the hope of everyone in Chang'an. He has crossed the barriers of the council and the official room, and is the real and only future star of Chang'an so far.

Chang'an has been suffering from internal friction for a long time, and many people are looking forward to the rise of Dong Pingchuan to peacefully evolve the conflict between Yuan and Su and eliminate it invisible.

Yet he betrayed.

Since the chaos in July of the 120th year of the Ming Dynasty destroyed the only hope of Chang'an's peaceful evolution, since then, Chang'an's political situation has fallen into turmoil.

It can be said that this person's harm to Chang'an was far more serious than any local war or natural disaster.

Facing "Bai Yan" tonight, Dong Pingchuan showed an intriguing attitude.

He bluntly gave up the originally designed competition, even at the expense of the people from the four towns and the company, and left in a hurry after only one trick with Li Shun. .

Li Shun's original speculation was that the so-called competition this time was actually a design aimed at Tianshiyuan and even the entire Sanyuan faction. Towns and companies joined forces to make this bureau.

Because of Li Shun's breakup, Dong Pingchuan made a misjudgment, thinking that there was a problem within the alliance, and some people fell to the Sanyuan faction, so he used the traditional art skills of the Mingguangjiao to defect and stop the loss first.

One reason is that the Mingguang Sect has such a style, and dealing with them is always seeking skins from tigers. Even if Dong Pingchuan's style is different, he has to go along with it when he first arrives.

Secondly, with the obscuring light in front of them, it is obvious that the obscuring light sect has some plans in Chang'an. They don't want to show too much here, so they would rather give up this easy gain.

When An Su pointed out that Dong Pingchuan let the design go to waste too easily, and there was a lot of thunder and little rain, which was a bit strange, Li Shun gave such an explanation without thinking because he was familiar with the Mingguang Cult.

But after Lian Linxi raised some points, now it seems that Li Shun still has some limitations.

It's not that Li Shun's vision is not as good as Lian Linxi's. In fact, Li Shun, as a corona, has access to information levels and character levels that are beyond Lian Linxi's reach. Practice Linxi.

Li Shun's limitation is that he is used to walking alone, he only believes in the knife in his hand, draws a line with the highest power held by the guild, and has not received education in politics and power skills, which makes him not good at using it. Macro perspective, that is, the perspective of the Hunter's Guild [Twelve Days].

Although he is well aware of the situation in Shenzhou and the situation of all parties, when looking at things in detail, he will still subconsciously use "Hunter Li Shun" instead of "Corona" as his perspective.

In terms of politics, although Li Shun has faded from his youthfulness, he is still far from being mature.

Lian Linxi's point of view is different from Li Shun's. She received the influence of her father since she was a child, and gradually cultivated a scholarly mind. nurture.

Later, she was sent to Xicheng on the north-south border as the chief official, and she was in the leadership of Xicheng, where all the struggles were criss-crossed all the year round. In the process of successfully integrating the situation in Xicheng, Lian Linxi gradually honed her understanding of the macro situation. Grasp ability.

Lian Linxi's perspective is based on the Zhiye Mansion, watching Shenzhou from a high altitude.

Therefore, after she learned about the situation in Dead Sea Ruins City, she quickly made a judgment—since there is "the extinction of the guild", there must be someone from the Night Mansion and the Wufang Guy.

Among the nine executives of the council, there must be guilds and spokespersons for the interests of the five party members, otherwise this chain of interests that traverses the earth and the sky will never be formed.

You must know that construction is difficult, but destruction is easy. If you want to accomplish such a big event in Shenzhou, if you don't have this solid support like a tripartite confrontation, without any pole, the secret of the ghost city cannot be preserved to this day.

This is a kind of tacit understanding. Although the Zhiye Mansion, the guild and the Wufang guys are clearly separated, after a long time of separation, there is already me in you, and you in me. Everything is nothing more than a game of power.

Now that this point has been made clear, the composition of the [company] is inconsistent with Li Shun's previous speculation. This is not an organization of the Yee Mansion, but a tool for the Yee Mansion, the guild, and the five parties to share interests .

And Dong Pingchuan's position is already very clear.

After taking over Chang'an's Vanishing Light Sect, no matter what his previous status was, he is now the spokesperson for the interests of the guild in the city of Dead Sea Ruins.

This thunderous and rainy competition suddenly became clear in front of Li Shun.

"That is to say, the Mingguang Sect and the company are actually the same group. Their real goal is not the Sanyuan faction, but the four towns of the Yuan Yao Realm, no, it is... Yatiangou Qin Tan." He said in a low voice.

Lian Linxi nodded and said:

"The cause of the incident was that Su Shaojun learned that the Oblivion Sect in the northern border was in urgent need of money, so he prescribed the right medicine and set up a trap. The purpose was very clear, which was to target the Oblivion Sect."

"And after the order came into the sight of the ghost city's high-level executives, Yatengu Qin Tan sensed the opportunity to intensify the conflict between Sanyuan and the outside factions, so as to put pressure on Sanyuan and force him to surrender his interests, so he took action to calm the situation and dispatched a Competing. It is conceivable that she must pay a corresponding price for this in exchange for the cooperation between the Mingguangjiao and the company."

"However, the plan of the Huanguang Sect went deeper. They teamed up with the company to take advantage of the situation. Even if you, Ah Shun, did not enter the arena, Dong Pingchuan would find an opportunity to renege on the battle. In this way, Qin Tan's plan was in vain. She is equivalent to Paying twice the price and getting nothing done was no small mistake."

"She will miss, nothing more than Yuan Yaojie's lack of information on Shenzhou, and the overestimation of the bottom line of the Mingguang Sect. But no matter what, Qin Tan, as the head of Chang'an appointed by the four towns of Yuan Yaojie, failed to prevent Mingguang in advance The fickleness of the sect, seeking skins from tigers, caused her family and even the Yuan Yao Realm to lose face and prestige in the Nine Persecutions, and even suffered a loss of interests, she cannot escape the blame."

Li Shun took over the conversation and said:

"After this incident, Qin Tan's position is bound to be in jeopardy. If Qin Tan still has political enemies in the Yuan Yao world, she will most likely be directly dismissed or even questioned."

"Qin Tan's existence is likely to have hindered Dong Pingchuan's plan in the Dead Sea Ruins City. She is a smart person with a decent style and clever means. In addition, her background in the Yuan Yao Realm is a relatively large uncertain factor. "

Lian Linxi nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"Well, and the most cunning thing about Dong Pingchuan is that he not only used your knife to get rid of Qin Tan, but also made the four towns focus on you. After all, you are the main reason for Dong Pingchuan's betrayal. "

Li Shun couldn't help cursing secretly.

The obliterating light believers are already disgusting, and the obliterating light believers with brains are even more disgusting. Open the door to nausea.

As for what Dong Pingchuan was planning?you still need to ask.

He is the young master of Zhongtian Society, and of course what he wants is the city of Dead Sea Ruins, and even the whole of Chang'an.

------

Chapter 160 Madness, Wuwang, Bait

The doubts in the ghost city competition were clarified.

It's a pity that Su Xingliu's plan against the Vanishing Light Sect has failed, because Dong Pingchuan didn't want to drink, and he was just planning.

It's not that Su Xing's skills are not as good as others, it's simply because of the gap between his position and the amount of information. There is still a difference between impromptu intentions and premeditated plans.

From this, Li Shun once again realized what a huge deep-sea giant crocodile Zhongtianshe is.

The Zhongtian Society infiltrated the council very early on, and the Canglong-level authority figures who were supposed to be recruited by the Sanyuan faction continued to be drawn from the bottom of the pot by the Zhongtian Society.

Relying on the financial resources and connections accumulated in China's exclusive black diamond processing, foreign factions such as Zhiyefu and guilds are friendly with them.

They can even mobilize the armed forces belonging to Miyaki.

Among the Four Elephant Star Officials, they even completely controlled the Zhiming Dong Clan, thereby mastering several garrison troops, and correspondingly penetrated deeply into the internal structure of Chang'an.

Even in the city of Dead Sea Ruins, they managed to plant their own dead warriors as eyeliners.

Such a huge layout cannot be fully deployed in one or two years. Li Shun believes that it needs at least ten years of in-depth operation to penetrate the entire Chang'an to this point quietly.

It all happens below the surface.

Above the water is Dong Pingchuan, the [Star Commander] who shoulders the future of Chang'an.

That's right, the layers of preparations under the water don't seem to be for war, but more like they exist as a step for Dong Pingchuan's future advancement.

In this way, there is a contradiction between the doubts that Lian Linxi clarified for Li Shun and the reality.

Dong Pingchuan was able to steadily reach a high position in Chang'an through peaceful evolution, and even take over the power of Chang'an completely, but now the method has become risky.

The person in charge of Chang'an Zhongtian Society, Di Ting, took the risk to mobilize Zhiming Dong's family and Po Junying, and at any cost, he wanted to get the Chang'an underground map that fell into the hands of Su Xingliu.

After being cut off by Li Shun, he tried to use methods similar to "boosting feasts" to continuously give gifts to Li Shun, thereby manipulating and dominating Li Shun, and guiding Luo Lizhi to expose the existence of the ghost market, thereby completely detonating the council The battle with the bureaucracy.

And Dong Pingchuan waited for the opportunity to hide in the underground of Chang'an and plot the Dead Sea Ruins City. For this reason, he did not hesitate to get rid of the X factor in the ghost market that could threaten his plan-Tengu Qin Tan.

There are various indications that the Zhongtian Society has completely changed its policy, from an overt conspiracy to promote the iteration of power to a conspiracy by the oriole to profit from the post-chaos.

Before hunting Qingguo, Li Shun understood Zhongtian Society's intentions through a sentence from Lu Wei, so he talked with Di Ting, and his hint made Di Ting not hesitate to take the dead king who was ambushing in the city of Dead Sea Ruins as a seal Trading him for free is the best proof.

The reason for the drastic change in route was Dong Pingchuan's betrayal in July.

Dong Pingchuan made a big mistake, and the collapse designed by others destroyed everything that Zhongtian Society had laid so far. The conspiracy was abandoned, and he had to turn to conspiracy and violence to spy on Chang'an.

Anyone can see that a conspiracy is better than a conspiracy. The general situation is overwhelming, and there is no need to take risks. It is nothing more than a long process of evolution. Dong Pingchuan is still very young, and it is completely unnecessary to be eager for success and chase after the end.

It is impossible for Dong Pingchuan, who is scheming, and Dong Zhongtian, who is plotting far-reaching, not to understand these things.

In this way, there is only one answer left, although that is an outrageous answer no matter how you look at it.

——Dong Pingchuan's betrayal was not an active choice, but...forced.

Only in this way can all this be explained.

Huanguang used some unknown means to control Dong Pingchuan from a long distance, causing him to commit a traitorous act, and finally made the Zhongtianshe's many years of planning come to naught.

Li Shun's eyes became mocking and cold.

If it was the mentally ill + split personality brain, it is indeed possible to do such illogical things.

It doesn't even need any other reason, just a whim.

To put it simply, it is "I am happy".

For others, it is simply a fantasy. When a person reaches a high position like Twelve Days, how much is involved in every move, how can he not weigh the interests and act cautiously?

But Li Shun knew that Ming Guang would really do it.

He can ignore any bondage, restraint, and agreement of any interests, just like the behavior style of their sect, who is dog-faced, and he will change his face immediately if he changes his face.
