Chapter Seven Hundred and Sixty Sixth Against the Trend

"How can this elder care about the younger generation? It's just that there is a difference between the seniors and the juniors, and the elders are orderly. From ancient times to the present, from ordinary people to ordinary households, to emperors' families and countries, there are no rules and no rules. Jiang Xiaosheng has repeatedly touched Feixingzhai. Bottom line, it should be punished. Elder Ye kills his relatives righteously, which is admirable."

Lu Zhou never thought of imitating Meng Changdong, it was not in line with his usual style, even if he changed his face and facial features.

Ye Zhen always kept a faint smile and said:

"Elder Meng's words are reasonable. Within a family, fathers, sons and brothers, elders and youngers are superior and inferior. They are organized and undisturbed. This is the case in ordinary families, not to mention Feixingzhai, where there are tens of thousands of people."

Sincerely as I knew before.

Ye is an extremely cunning person.

Hearing that Lu Zhou called himself "Elder Ben", he could still be so calm.

There is neither sadness nor joy between words, follow the trend, and cover up the contradiction in the depths of the heart, unlike the demeanor that should be done at this age.

Lu Zhou was unmoved and said calmly, "Elder Ye, what else is there?"

Ye Zhen said:

"Today, Elder Meng led thousands of practitioners to encircle Qianliuguan. Xie Xuan, a master of nine leaves from the twelve sects of Yunshan, was killed by Jinlian practitioners. Where was Elder Meng at the time of the incident?"

His tone was very calm, and it was clearly the content of the question, but he couldn't hear the accusation.

Luzhou Road:

"Qianliuguan is protected by experts, and even Xie Xuan died in Huangquan, so this elder naturally chooses to retreat."

There's nothing to be ashamed of.

From Meng Changdong's point of view, there is no problem with his escape route. No matter what, he didn't expect to meet the old man.

However, it can also be heard from these remarks that Ye Zhen's eyeliner was in the team from beginning to end.

Ye Zhen seemed to be immersed in the scene and knew it like the back of his hand.

"Now that Xie Xuan is dead, the twelve sects of Yunshan must be questioned. Can Elder Meng explain?"

"Elder Ye knows this matter..." Lu Zhou was not afraid at all.

In a calm tone, "Elder Ye knows that Qianliuguan is related to the Nine-layered Temple, but he still insists on sending people to encircle and suppress it, why is it in his heart?"

After speaking, Ye Zhen was still not angry, and his face was as usual.

"you are wrong."

He said for a while, "I went to the Jiuzhong Hall with the Zhaizhu, and I had enough confidence to take down Sikong Beichen... to encircle and suppress Qianliuguan, but just follow the trend."

His name for "Meng Changdong" has changed.

"Follow the trend?"

Lu Zhou grinned, "Lu Song, Liang Zidao, and Taoist Xuanming were the capable generals of Feixingzhai, but now they died inexplicably, is it also called taking advantage of the situation?"

Ye Zhen heard the refutation in his words, his expression remained the same, and smiled:

"These three people acted recklessly, without my consent, and they will die. Of the thousands of cultivators who are besieging Qianliuguan today, 300 are from Tianwu Academy, 500 are from Yunshan Twelve Sects, and 150 are Only fifty people were recruited in the scattered cultivation, and only fifty people came from my Feixing Zhai. After the retreat, all fifty people escaped, and no one died."

"..."

If Lu Zhou saw a certain temperament in him... it was the power of control.

On the surface, it was Meng Changdong who led the team to encircle Qianliuguan this time, but Ye Zhen was the black hand behind him.

Pretty cunning.

Ye Zhen continued: "But I'm a little curious, how did Elder Meng escape?"

"This elder is good at escaping, so escaping isn't a problem." Lu Zhou replied.

Ye Zhen nodded.

"Elder Meng won't ask, what happened to me and Zhaizhu in Jiuzhong Hall?"

Lu Zhou's heart moved slightly, and he always felt that Ye Zhen's eyes seemed to be able to see something.

Lu Zhou remained calm, just remember one thing - all conspiracies and tricks are futile in the face of absolute power.

"Elder Ye wants to say it, and I will listen carefully," Lu Zhou said.

Ye Zhen raised his hand.

There was a humming sound on both sides of the dojo, and the wooden door was closed.

"Are you also worried that the partition wall has ears?"

This is the Middle Finger Peak Fivefold Garden, Ye Zhen's Dojo. Who has the guts to come and eavesdrop?

Ye Zhen said: "This time is different from the past."

He slowly got up, his Confucian robe fell, his straight figure was on the floor, he pulled out a slender shadow, and continued: "I went to Jiuzhong Hall with Zhaizhu to find out the truth of Sikong Beichen and the truth of Chen Beizheng's death... "

"Oh?" Lu Zhou revealed doubts.

"Although Sikong Beichen has mastered the new swordsmanship, he still does not have the ability or the courage to kill Chen Beizheng, which will surely lead to the offense of the imperial court. The Jiuzhong Temple is already in decline, and none of the five first masters have karma. Therefore, the murderer who killed Chen Beizheng, the other There are experts." Ye Zhen said pacing with his hands on his back.

"It makes sense." Lu Zhou responded.

"Sikong Beichen claims that this person's surname is Lu, and he has the ability to kill Chen Beizheng. It is very likely that he is in Qianliuguan." Ye Zhen continued pacing, "The disciples who encircled and suppressed Qianliuguan reported that they saw two nine-leaf golden lotus cultivation. , Elder Meng, have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"It's true." Lu Zhou said.

"it is good."

Ye Zhen nodded, returned, and sat down cross-legged, "Then ask Elder Meng to do two things."

Lu Zhou remained silent, to see what tricks he could come up with.

Ye Zhen said: "The first thing, Feixingzhai should not damage more talents, if there is no important thing, don't go out during this time; secondly, the memory crystal is important, I have already agreed with Tianwu Academy. , The matter of crystal is left to them, and Elder Meng doesn't have to worry about it anymore. What do Elder Meng think of these two things?"

After speaking, his eyes fell on Lu Zhou, waiting for a response.

Lu Zhou did not rush to answer.

After a little pondering, he said:

"I just want this elder to hand over the crystal..."

What made Lu Zhou feel strange was that since Ye Zhen didn't like Meng Changdong so much, why didn't he get rid of it? Also ban Meng Changdong and protect him carefully?

There is something odd here.

Ye Zhen smiled, slowly stretched out his hand, and put it in front of Lu Zhou: "Then there will be Elder Lao Meng."

Just reach out for the crystal.

"You really want crystals?"

"Actually, this crystal is meaningless to me. If Tianwu Academy wants it, then it will fulfill them. Of course... if you want it, it's not impossible. What do you think... friend?" Ye Zhen said with a face smile.

The word "friend" is very light and slow... It also means that Ye Zhen knows that he is not Meng Changdong.

When Ye Zhen said the word friend, his eyes did not shift, trying to see surprise and panic on Lu Zhou's face...

However, Luzhou behaved unusually calm.

The crystal was already in hand, and Lu Zhou didn't care about it. When I first saw Ye Zhen, I knew that this person was extremely difficult to deal with.

Lu Zhou said, "You have some eyesight."

Ye Zhen smiled and said:

"From your first step into the dojo... I knew that your Excellency is not Meng Changdong."

This made Lu Zhou a little surprised.

If it is said that a smart person can tell that he is not himself through conversation, it is normal, and he can detect the clue at the first time, this Ye Zhen really has some ability.

"Elder Meng is only in the ninth day of the first year. When you enter the dojo, your breath will not be so calm. Your cultivation base is far higher than that of Elder Meng." Ye Zhen said.

No wonder Ye Zhen has never been angry.

Ye Zhen continued: "There are a lot of people who have mastered the disguise technique. Your Excellency only changed your face, but you don't want to change your speech and behavior. It can be seen that you are not afraid to expose yourself, and just want to take away the crystal."

Lu Zhou nodded: "Smart people all have one weakness, and that is self-righteousness. You are no exception."

Ye Zhen didn't deny it, but nodded.

He waved again.

The landscape paintings on the four sides of the dojo show the lines of the road, like flowing water.

"The Nine Layers Hall is long gone. Why do you have to go against the trend? Feixingzhai is in full swing, and it will become the number one sect of Datang in the future. Why don't you join hands with me?"

"Joining with you?" Lu Zhou looked at Ye Zhen again.

"Just take the crystal, it's my sincerity." Ye Zhen said frankly, placing his palms lightly on his legs, "When your Excellency returns, please tell this to Senior Lu. Be kind to others, and respect them over time. Your Excellency, think twice before proceeding."

Lu Zhou thought that Ye Zhen was just unpredictable, cunning and difficult to deal with.

After some exchanges, Lu Zhou felt a strong ambition and scheming.

Small can't bear to be chaotic and big plans, worthy of being a Confucian scholar.

"Meng Changdong has been reduced to a prisoner, and Feixingzhai only has the master and you. On paper, the strength is far inferior to that of the Jiuzhong Temple. How can we join forces?" Lu Zhou said.

"It's enough to have me." Ye Zhen said.

When the words fall, the surrounding landscape paintings are like surging water, and the air is filled with a touch of vitality.

Lu Zhou saw the dao pattern flowing in the air.

Dao lines circulate, and the surroundings are empty.

Ye Zhen put his palms together.

Behind Lu Zhou...a miniature dharma body appeared, and the nine-leaf golden lotus slowly bloomed...

Lu Zhou glanced back, and then looked at the landscape paintings on the four sides of the dojo. In this dojo, four paintings were used to form a wonderful Dao pattern formation area.
