Chapter 1179: Facing the Knife
The sharp wind stung his face.
At such a high speed, without the protection of Dao Yuan, it was almost like being tortured.
In the sharp wind, Lin Zhengren felt great pain on the physical level.
His neck was pinched, and he was pinched like a dog, so shamefully. His limbs were stiff and drooped, just hanging in the air...
He had no time to think about his appearance.
Because all his thoughts had to be used on the most important issue -
How to survive?
At the Yellow River Conference, the Tianjiao who represented the country was attacked by the blood ghost and retreated before the battle. He got a place in the main competition, but he didn't even get on the stage.
Zhuangguo was almost a laughing stock in the world.
In order to get on the viewing platform, Zhuangguo has made efforts for several generations.
It may take more time to wash away this shame.
As a Zhuang countryman, although Lin Zhengren did not feel the same shame, he forced himself to feel that shame. Only by knowing the extent of the national shame could he understand Du Ruhui's anger more deeply. Only by deeply understanding Du Ruhui's anger can he find his own chance of survival.
So he closed his eyes and faced the wind, tears streaming down his face. As the pride of a country, he could look down on his peers on weekdays. At this moment, he was extremely embarrassed and humiliated.
Du Ruhui, who was best at selling favors, did not give him any respect, of course, because he had completely denied him.
At this moment, he let himself feel his mood, and he was so sad that he couldn't stop crying.
He himself couldn't tell whether this huge sense of shame that filled his heart was because he was held by the back of his neck like a puppy, or because of the national humiliation!
He could clearly feel the wrinkles on that hand on the back of his neck, and especially the firm will conveyed by that hand.
Du Ruhui already had the intention to kill.
He didn't regret choosing to spit blood and give up the game at the first time, because Jiang Wang, who swept the whole field, was the world's number one inner court. If he suddenly killed someone when his edge had not been tested, even a True Lord like Yu Xi would probably be careless.
Among the eight matches in the main competition, the one between him and Jiang Wang was definitely not the most watched, and True Lord Yu Xi might not pay much attention to it. And with Jiang Wang's strong soul fighting power that defeated Xiang Bei, it was enough to kill him several times at the soul level in an instant.
Too risky.
Even if the person who presided over the Yellow River Conference was a Yan Dao strongman like Yu Xi... it was too risky.
Didn't Dongguo Bao die?
Although Chu Min didn't die, how much better was he? The puppet needed to be rebuilt, and the strange beast needed to be found and raised again... How much time would it take to practice? It was almost useless!
Going on stage was a gamble of life, and he didn't want to gamble.
In fact, he thought very clearly.
After Zhu Weiwo left, he was the most talented person in the whole Zhuang country.
He Badao and Duan Li were both destroyed before the Dragon Lock Pass. The rest of the outer building monks were mediocre. Zhuangguo did not have another person who could achieve the divine presence for the time being.
After Du Ruhui, there was no successor.
He, Lin Zhengren, was undoubtedly the most promising.
A genius who could enter the Yellow River Meeting finals certainly had the possibility of achieving the divine presence.
He was of certain importance to Zhuangguo. This was also evident from Du Ruhui's good attitude towards him.
This was what he relied on. And he believed that destroying the blood ghost to give up the game was a huge sacrifice to help the country save face, and Prime Minister Du should have seen this painstaking effort.
Just from the current situation. He seemed to have overestimated his own importance and underestimated the significance of the Yellow River Meeting...
As for the previous point.
Do Zhuang Gaoxian and Du Ruhui have any other choice?
Who?
The Fu Baosong who was stepped on by him in public?
The Li Jianqiu who was easily defeated by him?
Or is it the reckless Du Yehu in the army who only knows how to play with his life?
From the latter point of view, the fact that Emperor Jing spoke out later was a scene he had never expected.
The problem suddenly became too serious!
The Emperor Jing's words meant that the distribution of interests belonging to Zhuang State at this Yellow River Conference had been erased. And the shame he caused to Zhuang State must be re-examined.
These two days, waiting for the result on Guanhetai, every breath was very tormenting.
Because he knew that after the Yellow River Conference, it would be time for Zhuang Ting to settle accounts with him.
Zhuang Gaoxian was not a monarch who was reluctant to part with his meritorious ministers. On the contrary, he was very generous and was willing to reward his meritorious ministers. But there was one thing, the reward or "investment" of this Zhuang Jun must be rewarded.
The country sent him to Guanhetai, the prime minister personally escorted and instructed him, and he did not hesitate to have a rift with the first vassal state such as Sheng State, but also supported him to defeat Jiang Limeng...
All for the honor of Guanhetai and the interests related to the Yellow River Conference.
In the end, he only gained shame and loss.
He also left a bad impression on Emperor Jing. Yu Xi, the True Lord who presided over the meeting and was born in Yujing Mountain, could not help but have a bad impression of him...
This time he went to the table and lost everything!
After thinking about it, as a betting chip, he had little hope of survival.
Of course, he thought about escaping, but he knew that there was no possibility of escaping.
He had been resigned to his fate these two days.
He cried bitterly, admitted that he was afraid of death, and admitted that he could not suppress his fear after knowing that his opponent was Jiang Wang. He was in pain and blamed himself, and expressed his willingness to accept all punishments, and at the same time hoped to be able to make amends with his useful body...
But Du Ruhui never expressed his position.
This unspoken attitude shocked him.
Now that the meeting of the Yellow River has just ended, Du Ruhui directly carried him back to the Zhuang Kingdom, like carrying a meat dog to be slaughtered, to the slaughterhouse, not even willing to do any superficial tricks in front of others - or rather , showing Zhuang Guo's contempt for cowards like him, is already Du Ruhui's superficial skill.
what to do?
He has no ability to influence the interests of the Yellow River. Apart from a grand gathering like the Yellow River Meeting, the strength of the young geniuses is still too weak compared to the situation in the world.
And its own value...
Although he thinks that his value is extremely high, far exceeding that of Fu Baosong and Li Jianqiu.
But I am afraid that in the eyes of Zhuang Gaoxian and Du Ruhui, Lin Zhengren who died on the river viewing platform can embody more value than Lin Zhengren who survived.
The truth about Maplewood City was what he deduced and hinted to Zhu Weiwo. How could he not know how the monarch and his ministers would consider it!
These two people would only compare him who died in battle with him who was still alive, so he is now the number one among the younger generation in Zhuang Country, and now he is being strangled by the back of the neck like a puppy!
what to do!
Lin Zhengren tried hard to gather all his strength, and spoke with difficulty in the biting wind: "Zhengren knows that he will never be able to redeem himself for this crime. Fortunately, everyone in the unlimited field has abandoned the game, and our Zhuang country is not conspicuous..."
The wind continued to howl.
Du Ruhui was obviously indifferent to his "reminder".
The nature of his abandonment is completely different from those people. Of course he knows it.
But I still have to speak up and struggle for myself.
The road was made little by little. Even if there is a slight chance, he will not let it go.
After enduring the biting wind knife for a while, Lin Zhengren said again: "I really hate that I am incompetent and can't stop me. That rebellious minister and traitor named Jiang Wang actually got the title of Kuei. He hates the country for being like this. With such talent, Having such an honorable leader and being in a powerful state has become a serious problem for our country!"
Yunjing quickly retreated, but the wind knife remained the same.
Lin Zhengren asked with difficulty: "Have you ever thought about... how to deal with him?"
In the biting wind, Du Ruhui's voice finally sounded: "You don't need to worry about this anymore."
Lin Zhengren breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but his face was even more painful: "Yes...I am already the one who deserves to die. It doesn't matter whether I worry or not. It's just...ahem!"
He took a few breaths of air, coughed violently for a while, and then continued: "If you decide to deal with him, I am a very useful tool. My entire family died in his hands, and we have a blood feud. I am his The stain, my very existence, is evidence of his evil deeds.”
Du Ruhui stopped suddenly, still holding the back of Lin Zhengren's neck with one hand, lifting him halfway up, and looking down at him.
Du Ruhui, who was accustomed to being kind to others, could only see a bit of the majesty of a country's prime minister in such a state.
He looked at Lin Zhengren with a deep look: "I am actually very suspicious now. Is your whole Lin family... really killed by Jiang Wang?"
The distrust and disgust in these words were so obvious, but Lin Zhengren's heart dropped.
Only if he really wanted to take advantage of this matter would Du Ruhui need to consider its authenticity.
So he... found his value to others!
Lin Zhengren tried hard to control his painful expression, making himself more humble and submissive: "Wangjiang City is the Wangjiang City of Zhuang State. This matter can be as true as you want it to be. I am willing to cooperate in any way."
There was no response.
The wind roared past, and a thin cloud made a lonely whirl in the sky.
Thanks to the Alliance Empire | Qin Shang for giving Jiang Anan the alliance leader reward!
See you all tomorrow.
