Chapter 476 The Treasure of the Great Sage
Ever since the Beiyuan Mission entered the Wu Dynasty and announced the selection of a son-in-law in the capital in a high-profile manner, Mr. Sun has always been suspicious. But the key to Master Sun's complete insight into the entire plan of the Beiyuan Wasteland lies in the [Nine Realms Sky].
He brought out the grape seedlings from [Nine Realms Heaven], and then he kept trying to communicate with [Nine Realms Heaven] through the grape seedlings. He tried hard, and threatened with the grape seedlings, and finally made [Nine Realms Heaven] confide in him. The truth.
[Nine Realms Heaven] is one of the three great artifacts in Beiyuan, and the chief carries it with him. The chief would never have thought that his careful plan would be ruined by his eighth-level magic weapon!
Without the [Nine Realms Heaven], Lord Sun was confident that he would not let the Beiyuan people take the treasure out of the capital - he asked Ruan Sansheng to investigate the rat holes to guard against this.
The puppet monster left in Taiye Lake has also made Sun Changming target the old woman Wu Zhu.
Through the Holy Maiden of the North Ice as a link, the cooperation between the Imperial Master and the Thirty-six Beiyuan tribes began with the cultivation of "dragon seeds" under Taiye Lake. But the plan of the Beiyuan Wasteland Tribe is different from that of Mulberry Island. If the dragon species takes shape, they will not use it for themselves.
The thirty-six tribes of Beiyuan are also a big country, and their strength is no less than that of Da Wu. They have their own dragon veins and dragon energy, and there is no need to steal Da Wu.
Over the years, the thirty-six tribes of Beiyuan have been supporting the rebels in the Wu Dynasty. Once the dragon seeds are formed, they will be given to the most powerful one, completely plunging the Wu Dynasty into civil strife. What will the thirty-six tribes of Beiyuan choose? Time, wave the army down, and fully occupy the entire Da Wu!
The dragon species disappeared inexplicably, but the Beiyuan people still did not panic, because they had another method, which happened to be in the secret palace of the treasury.
Sun Changming directly tortured Gong Xiangchen in the general office.
The shamans of the Thirty-Six Divisions of Beiyuan also have corresponding means to seal souls. A high-level secret agent like Gong Xiangchen has this kind of restriction.
But Mr. Sun has extremely high attainments in the soul field. Unless he encounters the black flame brand of Star Fire, there is really no soul seal that he cannot break.
So it only took an hour for Master Sun to remove Gong Xiangchen's soul seal and know everything.
By the time he came out of the torture room, Zhao Xiaoyao had already returned with the old woman Wu Zhu. The old witch's whole body was stiff and unable to move, and she was wrapped in dense silkworm cocoons.
Zhao Xiaoyao spread his hands and distanced himself first: "I captured the man, but Pei Bingji was the one who inflicted the poison."
The old woman Wu Zhu was poisoned, and it was a very domineering and unreasonable poison. The old woman Wu Zhu's current state was almost like suspended animation. Her whole body was stiff and all functions were stagnant. At the same time, her soul was in a state of chaos and she had completely lost her self-awareness.
Sun Changming asked: "Are you helping him test the poison?"
Zhao Xiaoyao said: "He must say that this toxin is very consistent with my newly cultivated Gu worm." Master Sun was puzzled: "Your newly cultivated Gu worm can trap the target with special silk. Even the sixth realm is difficult to escape from, so why bother with poisoning?"
Zhao Xiaoyao said hesitantly: "Pei Bingji told me that he wanted to cooperate with me in research, and captured strong people like the Sixth Realm as mother material to cultivate Gu insects.
My new Gu insect can indeed use powerful creatures as [mother material], lay eggs in the creatures' bodies, and absorb the nutrients of the creatures for hatching. And the stronger the parent material is, the more ferocious the new Gu insects will be.
But when Gu insects lay eggs, powerful creatures will inevitably resist. Although my silk can control their bodies, there are still many methods in the Sixth Realm. They can still use them even if their bodies cannot move. Maybe they will fight. The fish dies and the net breaks.
Pei Bingji said that his toxin is needed at this time, and he will ensure that the mother material will obey..."
As he spoke, Ruan Sansheng and the other fierce men from Chaotiansi had already dodged far away. Thinking of training hard, only to be covered with poisonous eggs in the end... Goosebumps spread all over my body.
These two guys are simply very human. In their eyes, there are probably only two categories for everything in the world: one is useful for their research, and the other is useless.
This classification does not matter whether there is life or not.
Sun Changming sternly ordered: "This method will seriously harm Tianhe, so it should not be used easily!" However, Zhao Xiaoyao seemed to be hesitant to speak, so Sun Changming frowned and shouted: "If you have anything to say, just say it!"
"Yes, sir." Zhao Xiaoyao quickly agreed. The other captains around him were obviously stunned. Lord Sun had unknowingly gained such a powerful force that the sixth realm obeyed his orders obediently. Ma Qizhi also knew that his biological father Song Gongquan had been very polite to his subordinates in the Sixth Realm in the past. How could he have the authority to scold him casually?
Zhao Xiaoyao said: "Pei Bingji said that this has nothing to do with the way of heaven. Heaven and earth regard all things as stupid dogs. We treat them equally in the eyes of heaven. Our bodies will become new nutrients between heaven and earth after death. As for how to become nutrients , Heaven should not care..."
Mr. Sun has taken a different look at Pei Bingji. Is this serious person still capable of such insight?
Zhao Xiaoyao rubbed his hands again and said shyly: "He only talks in front of me. If he is in front of an adult, he will never dare to speak carelessly."
Sun Changming stared at him in confusion. Why do I think you are showing off to me? Your relationship is developing rapidly. When are you going to get engaged? Do you want me to give you a big red envelope?
"Hmph!" Master Sun snorted and dismissed the matter, pointing to the old woman Wu Zhu on the ground: "Give me the antidote, and you all can go out."
"As ordered." Everyone exited obediently, but then someone broke in. "Commander!" Everyone bowed and gave way outside the door. Liu Zhi came in and waved his sleeves. The two doors closed tightly with a clang, and the sound barrier fell at the same time.
"Sir." Sun Changming also clasped his fists in greeting. Liu Zhi scolded him with a sullen face: "You are getting bolder and bolder!" Sun Changming was puzzled: "Sir's temper is getting weirder and weirder."
Liu Zhi was so angry that he almost made a move, then gave him a stern look: "Even if you are very covetous of the treasure in the jade box, but there are so many people in the general office watching, you drive them all out. , come to interrogate this old witch alone?"
"I misunderstood you, sir. It turns out that you are thinking about me." Sun Changming said: "Why don't you give me a price? How can I cover up this matter for my subordinates?"
He would never believe that Liu Zhi would suddenly be so "kind"! This guy and Mr. Lu are two old money addicts! Working hard all day long to find advantages and take advantage is so bad!
Lord Liu Zhi nodded: "As expected, a boy can be taught. I won't trick you either. I will give you half of the bunch of grapes you got from [Nine Realms Heaven]..."
Sun Changming shook his head: "Absolutely impossible."
Those grapes are a good thing, but you want to take away half of them as soon as you open your mouth? For me, the jade box is like opening a blind box. There must be "Osaki Magatama" inside. To the people of Dawu, this thing is useless. It’s hard to say what treasures can really be obtained. It is really impossible to pay half of the grapes just for a "possibility".
Liu Zhi raised his eyebrows: "Then we will handle this case impartially!"
"Okay, let's call everyone in." Sun Changming refused to give in. Are you bluffing me? Was I scared?
Then both of them remained motionless, and no one actually opened the door and called their subordinates in. Finally, Lord Liu Zhi gritted his teeth and said, "There must be at least ten!"
"Three."
"Eight, no more, otherwise it will be meaningless to me."
Sun Changming gritted his teeth: "Five, no more!"
"Six!"
"...Okay." Sun Changming reluctantly agreed. Liu Zhi smiled slightly, and then said: "Add four more, and this game will help you deal with the secrets of the treasury, and no one will trace the lost treasures again!"
"Hiss--" Mr. Sun took a breath, Mr. Liu, you can do it, your bargaining ability has evolved greatly. I have to say that this additional condition impressed Mr. Sun very much.
"make a deal!"
Both of them smiled happily. Liu Zhi was satisfied. Although Sun Changming repeatedly lowered the price, he finally got ten grapes as he wished. Mr. Sun was equally satisfied. If Liu Zhi really refused to give in, he could hold his nose and endure the price of half the grapes. Now he only gave ten grapes, which made Liu Zhi feel that he was taking advantage.
"Let's get started." Liu Zhi waved his hand.
Sun Changming released a spirit seed and it fell into the body of the old woman Wu Zhu, but before the spirit seed could successfully parasitize, she was poisoned to death! Sun Changming was stunned for a while, Pei Bingji, your poison is so powerful. Master Sun thought for a while, and first used part of the antidote to slightly reduce the toxicity, and then released a new spiritual seed, which barely succeeded in parasitizing it.
After that, he was completely free of the poison.
Sun Changming took away the "silk" from the old woman Wu Zhu. Then with a thought, the old woman Wu Zhu stood up. She was in the same state as Taoist Bat. Her memory had not been completely wiped out, but she knew that she was already Mr. Sun's puppet. .
She secretly checked the restraint on her soul and found that it had been completely broken. She couldn't help but sigh secretly, knowing that she could not escape the grasp of Da Wu no matter what.
Sun Changming handed the jade box to her: "Open it. Official Geng will tell you the plans of the Thirty-Six Divisions of Beiyuan."
The old woman Wu Zhu wanted to refuse, but her body uncontrollably bowed and accepted the order: "Yes".
She opened the ban on the jade box, and then said: "The Thirty-six Beiyuan tribes have always wanted to send their horses south and completely occupy the entire Wu Dynasty. In the past few years, the national power of the Wu Dynasty has declined, and the Thirty-six tribes of Beiyuan have secretly supported more than a dozen people. Among the rebels within the Wu Dynasty, the most powerful one was the force that was loyal to Prince Xiaoming."
Liu Zhi's expression changed, and he immediately checked the jade box, and sure enough he found a special seal among the three treasures!
The old woman Wu Zhu nodded and said: "In this plan with Kuwadao, Kuwadao's target is Osaki magatama, and the target of the Thirty-sixth Division of Beihara is exactly this jade seal of the former dynasty."
Prince Xiaoming was a figure from thousands of years ago, and this incident was a royal scandal. Emperor Zhenzong at that time had nothing to do, and he had a very good relationship with his younger brother Yongwang. It is said that Emperor Zhenzong once made a verbal promise to King Yong to make him the emperor's younger brother. After his death, King Yong will be the new emperor.
But this matter, for some reason, has never been established in the form of an edict.
As a result, a few years before Emperor Zhenzong died, he suddenly gave birth to a son! The prince was only six years old when he died. King Yong led troops into the palace and proclaimed himself emperor!
Regarding the fact that Emperor Zhenzong wanted to pass the throne to him, King Yong asked the then Queen Mother, the biological mother of Zhenzong and King Yong, to testify.
In order to appease his ministers, Emperor Yongzong named Emperor Zhenzong's son "Prince Xiaoming", indicating that after his death, the throne would be returned to his eldest brother's son.
But after he secured the throne, the teenage Prince Xiaoming passed away...
This matter has been kept secret in history books, but for thousands of years, there have been rumors that Prince Xiaoming was still alive, and some ministers loyal to Emperor Zhenzong secretly took Prince Xiaoming out of the palace, and replaced him with his own son who looked very similar to Prince Xiaoming. Damn the prince!
Therefore, in various places in the Wu Dynasty, every once in a while, a group of people under the banner of Prince Xiaoming would rise up.
The imperial jade seal of the Wu Dynasty was originally obtained from the previous dynasty. When Prince Xiaoming disappeared, this imperial jade seal also disappeared.
The imperial court made a new imperial seal, but after a thousand years, the imperial seal of the previous dynasty was found again! The court handled the matter in a low-key manner, and not many people knew about it.
But the imperial court was also very embarrassed. The best choice was of course to completely destroy the previous dynasty's jade seal to avoid future troubles. However, the previous dynasty's jade seal was a legacy of the Wu Dynasty for thousands of years. It was deeply entangled with the national destiny of the Wu Dynasty. Once it is destroyed, it will inevitably lead to endless natural disasters in the Wu Dynasty.
Therefore, the imperial court could only seal the jade seal of the previous dynasty in the secret palace of the treasury, soak the seal with "Xuantian Liujin", and cooperate with various other arrangements to slowly transfer the national destiny condensed on the jade seal of the previous dynasty to the current national jade seal. .
This process is extremely slow and may take thousands of years.
The thirty-six tribes of Beiyuan stole the jade seal of the previous dynasty, and if it were handed over to the descendants of Prince Xiaoming, it would really be possible for the Wu Dynasty to have a "two dragons in the sky" situation. Once the Wu Dynasty completely fell into civil strife, the Beiyuan Wasteland tribe would You can definitely take advantage of it.
Liu Zhi was very angry: "How could such a secret of the country be leaked to Beiyuan? There is a traitor in the court!"
Sun Changming had a hard time dealing with these bloody things about the Wu Dynasty royal family. But what he was more concerned about was the third item in the jade box.
This is a simple stone cone. The first time Sun Changming saw this thing, he was deeply attracted, and a clear understanding arose in his heart: the treasure of the great sage of the human race in ancient times!
Liu Zhi also saw this thing, and his face became relaxed: "It turned out to be this [Bei Cone], this is really easy to handle."
Sun Changming stretched out his hand and gently held the great sage's treasure. His palm felt as warm as jade. It was as if he and the [Bei Cone] were "connected by blood", giving him a mysterious and mysterious feeling.
He asked Liu Zhi: "Sir, where does this treasure come from? What power does it have?"
Liu Zhi said: "This treasure is an artifact of a great sage of the human race in ancient times, but it is not used for combat. It is used to make shell coins and trim and drill holes in special shells - it is this The Great Sage taught humans how to use coins.
Therefore, this holy weapon condenses some high-level rules. Although it cannot be used directly for fighting, it can be used to make [shell coins] to hire some mysterious beings in the alien void to help you fight. "
Sun Changming's eyes lit up, our ancestors discovered so early that money is the most powerful weapon in the world!
Liu Zhi immediately poured cold water on him: "Don't be too happy too early. This sacred artifact has been in silence for tens of thousands of years." Sun Changming was stunned. He knew the concept of "silence" of the sacred artifact. To put it simply, It means that the sacred weapon suddenly "failed". Although it still retains certain attributes of the sacred weapon, such as being almost impossible to destroy, it cannot exert its original power.
There have been many instances in history where sacred artifacts fell silent, especially after the Sky Rail Reversal and the Hidden Three Wilds. High-level magical artifacts continued to fall, and sacred artifacts fell silent one after another.
However, the holy instrument that emerged from silence has not appeared until now.
"Furthermore," Liu Zhi continued: "Legend has it that even before the Sky Rail Reversal, this [Beijing Cone] was the most difficult to use among the many holy weapons. Various harsh conditions need to be met. The first one is We need to find a kind of shell called [Yao Bei] - only this kind of shell can be made into shell coins, but this kind of shell has also been extinct for tens of thousands of years."
Sun Changming frowned. The feeling of blood connection between himself and [Bei Bei] made him confident that he could awaken this sacred weapon, but he had never even heard of such a thing as [Yao Bei]...
But how can such a great sage’s treasure be given up for nothing? Sun Changming still put it away with satisfaction. Liu Zhi shook his head slightly. This third treasure was secretly taken out by the old woman Wu Zhu. She originally planned to enrich her own pockets, but I am afraid the old woman did not expect that after taking such a big risk, she only took out a piece of Silence Saint. device.
The reason why [Bei Cone] can be placed in the Secret Palace of the National Treasury is more because of the meaning represented by the "Treasure of the Great Sage".
Liu Zhi finally asked him: "How are you going to end this matter?"
Sun Changming told the truth about his plan, Master Liu frowned and waved his hand: "That's all, just do what you want, but since you dug out those rebels, I'll leave them to you to deal with. "
"I obey my orders."
…
The people in the capital originally thought that the story of the Northern Saint's son-in-law selection would have a happy ending: Sun Changming, the most outstanding genius of the Wu Dynasty, returned home with a beautiful woman, and the talented man and the beautiful woman married into a fairy.
As a result, the Holy Lady of the North Ice suddenly attacked the general office and declared to the entire capital: You can only marry me if you win.
At this point, everyone was still laughing and watching the show, thinking it was the fun between "husband and wife". It is true that there are some old scholars who feel that the Holy Lady of the North Ice does not give face to her "husband", which violates the moral code of women's "three obediences and four virtues", but ordinary people don't care about this, and there are many people in the market who are ruthless.
But the final result was surprising: Chaotiansi announced after the war that the Beiyuan mission had evil intentions, built plank roads openly and secretly visited Chencang, and actually stole the secret treasury of the Wu Dynasty and stole three important national treasures!
Fortunately, Mr. Sun Changming was not deceived by his beauty. While he and the Saint of the North Ice had a false relationship, he secretly investigated, and finally completely shattered the conspiracy of the Beiyuan Wilderness tribe, killed the leader of the bandits, the Saint of the North Ice, and captured most of the criminals in the mission. , but there is a Beiyuan wizard who escaped from the capital with a treasure by virtue of his mysterious witchcraft, and Chaotiansi is pursuing him with all his strength!
There was an uproar in the capital. How could a happy event turn into a funeral?
Lord Sun personally took action and arrested the Beiyuan envoy. People suddenly remembered that the last Sangdao mission that arrived in the capital was also completely wiped out in the hands of Lord Sun... So among the people, Lord Sun had another one. Titled "Mission Exterminator"!
The storytellers in the capital compiled the whole process of this eulogy into a legendary story, which was really full of twists and turns, bizarre and weird, and made the audience want to stop.
In teahouses everywhere, every time the wake-up call fell, and it was summed up by the sentence "Let's listen to the explanation next time", there would be a sound of shouting and cursing, and all kinds of melon seeds and peanut shells would be thrown at the storyteller's head.
The storytellers left in embarrassment, but their hearts were filled with joy. They originally followed Chaotiansi's secret order to do this, but now many clever storytellers took the initiative to find Chaotiansi and expressed their desire to turn the eucalyptus from the previous Sangdao mission into a storytelling story. Finally, After the two parties negotiated, Chaotiansi simply provided a large amount of "material" and asked the storytellers to compile a long storytelling "Sun Gong Eucalyptus"!
"Sun Gong Eucalyptus" endured in the capital for a long time, and slowly spread to all parts of the Wu Dynasty. While Mr. Sun was still alive, new ideas continued to be incorporated into this commentary. This is all a story for another day.
In the imperial court, the files about the Beihara mission were obtained. The details were detailed and the evidence was complete. The three stolen treasures, the jade seal of the former dynasty and the Osaki magatama were recovered, but the old woman Wu Zhu brought the [Bei Cone] After escaping, Chaotian Si has laid a dragnet on the way back to the north, and he must capture the old woman Wu Zhu!
No one knows that Chaotian Si’s review took a while, and that the former Imperial Seal and Osaki Magatama were stored in the General Secretary’s Yamen for a while...
