Chapter 41: Master Dafang's Plan
After seeing the tragic appearance of his companion, the living man in black stood motionless on the ground. At this time, Guangren walked to Liu Xiu's side and helped Wu Xinhou up from the ground. He said, "You are Wu Xinhou Liu Xiu? I just heard the thief call out your name. We are all alchemists who are wandering outside. It is God's will to meet Wu Xinhou..."
While speaking, Guangren bowed to Liu Xiu half a bow. Seeing the two men in black assassins captured each other, Liu Xiu felt relieved. He returned the greeting Master Dafang, wiped the cold sweat on his head, and said, "Thank you, Mr. Guangren, for helping him. If the teacher hadn't arrived in time, Liu Xiu would have been the dead soul under the assassin's knife."
As soon as Liu Xiu said this, Volcano had already pressed the man in black to the front of everyone. After throwing the man in black to Guangren, Volcano said to him: "Who are you? Who are you? After being instructed by whom, Master Wu Xinhou will spare your life if he speaks out."
After Volcano finished speaking, the man in black kept his head down without saying a word. After seeing this, Volcano sneered. When he just wanted to teach the man in black, he was stopped by Guangren. Master Dafang smiled faintly, and then said to the man in black: "You should know who I am. If you don't say what I want to know, I will know. If you don't say your body, your soul will also tell me. But if you do that, it will inevitably damage your soul. Of course, if you don't mind, I will naturally not mind..."
Before Guangren finished speaking, the man in black's face had become panicked. After a moment, the man in black looked up at Master Dafang and said, "Master Dafang wants to ask, I dare not stop talking..."
This man and the man in black who died just now were both members of the Taishen Army, Emperor Gengshi Liu Xuan. When Liu Xuan saw Gui Bugui use mysterious magic to defend the enemy in the army, he formed an army formed by Taoist scholars in the Imperial Emperor's period.
However, there were wars and the victory or defeat of the new army of the Green Forest Army and Wang Mang was unknown. Liu Xuan could not find any great monks, and he only recruited more than 30 monks in more than a year. Such a number of people was naturally not suitable to kill enemies on the battlefield. At present, under the suggestion of close provocations, Liu Xuan hid all these people and did some assassinations and detailed works.
The two assassins who made Chang'an City storm were sent by Liu Xuan to disturb the hearts of the people of Chang'an City before the Green Forest Army siege. Unfortunately, they were defeated by Wu Mian. Liu Xuan handled the matters about Taishen Army in a very strict manner. Even his younger brother Liu Xiu and Gui Bugui, who was responsible for the detailed work of the Green Forest Army, had never heard of it.
However, when he was recruiting monks, Fan Chong of Red Eyebrows heard the news. He also learned to form a similar team, but his foundation was even thinner, with only a dozen less than a dozen monks in it. When he made a big fuss in Chang'an City, Fan Chong's subordinates also participated. However, the idea of the Red Eyebrows Army was more complicated. In addition to disturbing the capital, he also used the snatched back as military resources.
Just as Liu Xiu received the imperial edict, the two men in black also received the order from Liu Xuan. They ordered them to rob and kill Wu Xinhou and others on the official road, just like Liu Xiu had guessed at the beginning. The paths outside the official road were already guarded by Liu Xuan's personal general, and they guarded the official road to prevent Liu Xiu from escaping from here. Unexpectedly, when things were about to come true, they were disturbed by Guangren who suddenly appeared.
After listening to the man in black, Guangren turned around and smiled slightly at Liu Xiu, saying, "It seems that this person is right. Someone also contacted disciples of the alchemist sect before the New Year. He hoped to join with him with great profit. If it were not for the alchemist sect, it might be difficult for him to control the country's destiny, perhaps among the assassins who came to assassinate Wu Xinhou today, there would be my disciples, which would be a little embarrassed..."
Although it was obvious that Guangren was joking, Liu Xiu no longer had the intention to joke at this time. After a wry smile, he said to Guangren: "Master Dafang is joking. Now the emperor wants to kill me. So what if I hide at the end of the world? In the end, I will still be unable to escape death."
"Wu Xinhou's words are wrong." Guangren smiled lightly and continued, "The world has not yet been pacified. Where did the emperor come from? Although Wang Mang's rebellion has been destroyed, all the heroes in the world have risen. In addition to Emperor Gengshi's Green Forest Army, Fan Chong of Red Eyebrows also had the intention of not accepting the king's transformation. Emperor Gengshi only occupied Chang'an and began to enfeoff all the kings and officials. Fan Chong of Red Eyebrows has also privately accepted Liu Penzi, who is also the remains of the royal family. If Fan Chong supports Liu Penzi and becomes emperor and competes with Emperor Gengshi, then which one is Liu Xuan or Liu Penzi is the emperor?"
When Liu Xiu was in the Green Forest Army, he was able to deal with Fan Chongjiu, and knew that this person had great ambitions. Although he surrendered to Liu Xuan and took Emperor Gengshi as his order, he would sooner or later have a life-and-death battle with Liu Xuan. But he didn't expect that a alchemist who had disappeared for more than a hundred years would know such a secret thing. It seems that it was not accidental that he was rescued by this great master today.
It is not convenient to speak at the city gate. At that moment, Guangren and others welcomed Liu Xiu into the city. After entering the city, Liu Xiucai found that the people in the city were all wandering around in a daze, and they did not return to normal until they entered the city. Before, Wu Xinhou was still different. Why did no people die at the city gate and no one came out? It turned out that this was also a means of Guangren's use.
Under the escort of Guangren and others, Liu Xiu met Deng Yu, the general who was here to meet him. Wu Xinhou told him what had just happened at the entrance of the city. Deng Yu was shocked and did not dare to let Liu Xiu stay in the city. He directly brought his troops to protect Wu Xinhou and passed by. Liu Xiu originally wanted to invite Guangren and others to go with him. However, he was rejected by the Master Dafang: "The alchemist family cannot participate in the national destiny. I don't know who Wu Xinhou is. But now it's hard to say that things are deep in it. However, the green mountains and clear waters are not changed. If you are destined, we will see Wu Xinhou again. The world is mysterious, and who will tell you the future is accurate..."
This place is too close to Chang'an City, and Liu Xiu dared not stay deep. Under Deng Yu's repeated urging, Wu Xinhou followed Deng Yu's men and hurriedly left the place.
It was not until Liu Xiu's men disappeared that Guangren smiled slightly and said to a small wine shop beside him: "It's hard for Mr. Gui, you've stayed here for so long. It seems that the people who are worried about Wu Xinhou are not the only ones who are worried about him."
After Guangren finished speaking, a strong man drinking in the restaurant suddenly burst into laughter. While laughing, the man used his hands to wipe his face. He showed an old face with orange peel and laughed at Guangren and others again. Gui Bugui, who showed his true body, then said: "Didn't it mean that the alchemist sect cannot control the country's destiny? What's this? Dafang Master led the crowd to rescue the princes in distress. A few years later, after the princes became the emperor, he pardoned the alchemist who had saved the emperor. At that time, Dafang Master was still Dafang Master, and the alchemist sect was still a alchemist. There was no change from a hundred years ago. Dafang Master endured for a hundred years and received a revival of the alchemist sect. It was so schemist."
"Without Mr. Gui's gift to Zhanzu, how could there be the sect of the alchemist today?" After hearing the old guy's words, Guangren simply admitted it directly. After a slight smile, he continued to say, "Just count, Mr. Gui is the initiator of the current sect. After the alchemist's revival, he naturally cannot forget Mr. Gui's kindness."
"You said this, I'm a little embarrassed to be so thick-skinned." After Gui Bugui smiled, he ignored Guangyi and others around him and continued to say to Guangren: "Then what about the master Wentian who has lost his face? He is also in your chess game of Dafang Master. He asked you to escape last time. What do you plan to deal with him next time?"
