Chapter 343 Dongfang Guanshan
The kind tone was as casual as talking to an old friend, the tone was gentle, and there was even a hint of warmth...if you didn't listen to the content.
The black shadow's hair stood on end, and his whole body suddenly tensed up. He suddenly took two steps back and stared at the fat man in front of him!
The hair on the back stood up instantly!
The fat man in front of him had an ordinary appearance and a huge body. He was wearing a black and green brocade robe, and his fat body almost burst the brocade robe.
The eyes are not big, and they are even smaller when she smiles. The fat on both sides of her cheeks almost covers her eyes, which makes her look even more cute.
A fat man with a simple and cute appearance.
There was no trace of murderous intent in this fat man.
Not even an ounce of hostility!
He looks completely harmless to humans and animals.
But the black shadow's face became more and more wary, staring at the fat man in front of him, and said sternly: "Who are you?!"
He couldn't detect any aura from the fat man. Either he was a person who didn't know martial arts at all, or his martial arts had reached a level where he could freely retract and release his martial arts.
Obviously, although the fat man in front of him looked kind, in Heiying's eyes, he could never be a person who didn't know martial arts.
So……
The shadow's eyes were sharp.
The fat man didn't seem to notice the vigilance and murderous look on his face. He still had a harmless smile on his face: "Didn't I tell you? I'm here to kill you."
"That's right, take your life!"
The tone is still gentle, even a little relaxed, as simple as asking the other party to eat and drink.
Can……
He wants to kill him!
The shadow's pupils shrank suddenly, and his heart felt cold.
"I have no enmity with you, why do you want to take my life?"
A trace of doubt appeared on the fat man's fat face, and he glanced at him in confusion: "Do you still need a reason to kill someone?"
"..."
"When your Celestial God Sect kills people and wastes their lives, do you have a reason?"
Black Shadow's heart suddenly shook, and he realized something instantly. Is this person coming to their Celestial God Sect?
"you……"
Heiying looked embarrassed, he might not be able to be kind today.
Seeing that the fat man in front of him still had a warm smile on his face, a fierce murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the black shadow.
A sudden attack.
"Go to hell!"
A cold light flashed, and the sharp sword energy was covered up by the icy cold wind.
…
Above officialdom.
It was freezing, snowy, and the north wind was blowing wildly.
There are few people on the endless official road.
There were still ice and snow that had not completely melted on the dead trees on both sides of the road, and the cold wind blew away the strong smell of blood in the air.
Blow all the way!
In the snow, there were several figures lying upside down.
The blood dyed the ground red, dyed the snow red, and the red and white intertwined, creating a very strong picture.
Disgusting!
Discomforting!
The surroundings were in a panic, and it was obvious that they had just experienced a big battle. Not far from the corpse, a figure stood quietly.
The green and white brocade robe was stained with some blood, and he looked a little messy and embarrassed.
The originally handsome face was a little flushed, and his surging breath caused the blood to surge, making Lin Jiangnian's whole body like a furnace.
It wasn't until a while later that he suppressed the Xuanyang Mental Technique that was raging in his body, and turned around to look around.
No one is left standing!
All the members of the Celestial Sect, without exception, died under his sword.
"It's nothing more than that!"
Lin Jiang young shook his head lightly, sighed, and dropped the chipped knife that he had snatched from the cultist.
No wonder the Tianshen Sect can only be regarded as a little-known organization. The strength of the believers in this sect is indeed not that strong.
Vulnerable!
"There are so many people, but they can't beat me... just average."
Lin Jiangnian made a mental evaluation.
Apart from the leader and the great elders, there probably aren't many experts in the Celestial Sect.
Thinking like this, Lin Jiangnian ignored one point.
The believers who came to assassinate him today are actually not weak. With the martial arts of these believers, it is more than enough to kill some ordinary masters.
But now Lin Jiangnian's martial arts has surpassed that of ordinary masters and entered the fifth level. Coupled with the Xuanyang Mind Technique, a top-notch internal skill, and the training and unique skills taught by top masters such as Senior Li and Zhi Yuan, Lin Jiangnian's starting point in martial arts was already higher than that of ordinary people. too much!
It is naturally not difficult to deal with these ordinary minions of the Celestial God Sect.
More importantly, the fourth elder underestimated Lin Jiangnian's strength!
In his eyes, what kind of martial arts skills could Lin Jiangnian, the prince of Linwang, have? Even if there were, it would certainly not be much stronger.
Just send a few people to sneak over and kill him!
…
When Lin Jiangnian came back to his senses, he remembered something and raised his eyes to look ahead.
Not far ahead, a fat figure appeared in the line of sight.
At this time, this fat man was carrying something and came to Lin Jiangnian with great skill.
His body was obviously bloated, and the fat on his body trembled as he walked, but the fat man's steps were steady and he was carrying something in one hand.
Lin Jiangnian took a closer look and quickly saw... that was a person!
It was the master of the Celestial God Sect who had stood in front of Lin Jiangnian just now and had strong martial arts skills.
Among all the people present, he was the only one who could pose a threat to Lin Jiangnian.
At this time, he was carried by the fat man in his hands, and he was thrown casually into the snow like a toy.
Then, the fat man walked quickly to Lin Jiangnian.
Then, he knelt down on one knee in the snow with a plop.
"I, Dongfang Guanshan, am late in coming to your rescue. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"
"..."
The cold wind whistled.
"Get up."
Lin Jiangnian looked at the fat man in front of him quietly and spoke lightly.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Dongfang Guanshan climbed up from the snow with difficulty. When he looked up, he was shocked when he saw Lin Jiangnian's embarrassed appearance. He hurriedly asked: "Your Highness, are you okay?!"
"Are you not injured?"
"I'm fine."
Lin Jiangnian shook his head and smiled: "But, thanks to Uncle Dongfang for helping me today."
"Your Highness, what are you talking about?!"
Dongfang Guanshan waved his hands quickly: "I am the prince's man and your Highness's retainer. It is my duty to protect your Highness and help you solve your problems."
He smiled kindly, and the fat on his face almost covered his eyes. He looked honest and kind, with an indescribable sense of humor.
He was obviously a man in his thirties, but when he stood in front of Lin Jiangnian, he looked like he was trying to curry favor with him.
It was indescribable funny.
But this fat man who was servile and humble in front of Lin Jiangnian was not small.
Dongfang Guanshan!
One of the four trusted masters under the Lin Wang.
He is also an important figure in the Lin Wang army!
None of the four masters under Lin Hengzhong are ordinary people.
The fat man in front of him who looks kind and amiable is the same. Dongfang Guanshan has been with Lin Hengzhong since he was not yet the Lin Wang. He has fought with Lin Hengzhong in the south and the north and made great military achievements.
Lin Jiangnian has not had much contact with the four masters under Lin Hengzhong. Apart from Zheng Zhiming, there is only this one in front of him.
However, compared to Zheng Zhiming, he is not interested in the Lin Wang Prince and even does not take Lin Jiangnian seriously. Dongfang Guanshan in front of him is probably the most enthusiastic person among the four people towards the Lin Wang Prince.
Of course, it is also related to Dongfang Guanshan himself.
Compared with the other three, Dongfang Guanshan's ability is indeed much worse. In terms of martial arts, he is not as good as Zheng Zhiming, in terms of strategy, he is not as good as the military advisor, and in terms of ability, he is not as good as Sun Changjing who is in charge of the southern border.
In the Linwang army, Dongfang Guanshan was also in an extremely embarrassing situation!
If he wanted to keep his position in the Linwang Mansion, then naturally...
"Your Highness, how should we deal with this person?"
At this time, Dongfang Guanshan asked with a smile on his face: "This person tried to sneak attack Your Highness, and has been captured by my subordinates. How should we deal with him? Please let Your Highness decide."
Lin Jiangnian glanced at the black shadow that was thrown in the snow next to him and had lost the ability to resist, and said lightly: "Deal with it."
This person was sent by the fourth elder. After learning about the affairs of the first elder and the fourth elder from Liu Su, Lin Jiangnian roughly guessed the purpose of the fourth elder.
Test?
Or want to avenge the first elder?
No matter what the purpose is!
For Lin Jiangnian, he is not very interested.
The only thing he is interested in is the origin of the leader of the Tianshen Sect.
As for these little people, he didn't take them to heart.
"Yes, leave it to me. It's just a small thing, so as not to dirty your Highness's hands."
Dongfang Guanshan still had a smile on his face, and turned to walk to the black shadow lying in the snow.
At this moment, the black shadow was dying. When he saw Dongfang Guanshan approaching, he seemed to have foreseen something, his pupils gradually widened, and fear flashed before his eyes.
The next second.
"Crack!"
Dongfang Guanshan stepped on his neck, and with a crisp sound of bones breaking, the black shadow on the ground completely lost its breath.
Silently.
After doing all this, Dongfang Guanshan turned around again and said with a smile: "Your Highness, I have dealt with this person!"
Lin Jiangnian watched this scene quietly, watching Dongfang Guanshan break this person's neck with one foot, and still looking at him with a smile on his face, his expression slightly changed.
This fat man... is really not simple!
Lin Jiangnian collected his thoughts and chuckled, "Thank you for your hard work today, Uncle Dongfang!"
"What's the matter?"
Dongfang Guanshan waved his hand and said with a smile, "I couldn't help His Highness much today. I just dealt with a small character, which is not worth mentioning."
Lin Jiangnian seemed to think of something and suddenly asked, "By the way, Uncle Dongfang, why did you suddenly come to the capital?"
Just a few days ago, Lin Jiangnian received information from the Lin Wang Mansion.
Dongfang Guanshan has entered the capital!
This is why Lin Jiangnian dared to meet the leader of the Tianshen Sect today!
Just as Liu Su worried, Lin Jiangnian would not put himself in danger. If he was not sure, he would not take risks.
As one of the four masters under Lin Hengzhong, Dongfang Guanshan's martial arts skills would not be much worse than Zheng Zhiming.
Lin Jiangnian did not know the true details of the leader of the Tianshen Sect, but with Dongfang Guanshan, Lin Jiangnian had more confidence to meet the leader.
...Even if the worst result is a fallout with the leader, it is not difficult for Lin Jiangnian to get out of this unscathed.
This is why Lin Jiangnian is so confident today.
Dongfang Guanshan replied: "I came here specially on the orders of the prince."
"My father?"
Lin Jiangnian glanced at him: "My father is fine, why would he let you come to the capital?"
The relationship between the Linwang Mansion and the court is too sensitive, especially Dongfang Guanshan, who has an extraordinary status and cannot enter the capital at will.
Unless...
What's the big deal?
Thinking of this, the fat on Dongfang Guanshan's face trembled slightly, and then he sighed deeply: "It's hard to explain..."
"Isn't it that I have to clean up the mess with that Zheng?"
Zheng?
Zheng Zhiming?
"Commander Zheng?"
Lin Jiangnian asked in confusion: "What's wrong with him?"
Dongfang Guanshan seemed to remember something, and a bit of anger appeared on his face, and his tone suddenly changed: "Isn't it that Zheng has no brains? The prince sent him to Xuzhou to do things, and he made a mess of things... So, I have to help him clean up his mess!"
Zheng Zhiming went to Xuzhou to do things?
Lin Jiangnian narrowed his eyes. He heard that Zheng Zhiming killed many people in Xuzhou and made a big fuss. But the strange thing is that the Xuzhou government, even the people in the Xuwang Mansion, did not react.
This is very wrong!
Now Dongfang Guanshan said that he came to help Zheng Zhiming clean up the mess... What's going on?
"I've said it before, that Zheng is just a brainless reckless man."
Dongfang Guanshan shook his head and sighed, "Besides fighting and killing, what else can he do? What's the point of being able to fight? No matter how good he is at fighting, can he beat a master? Can he beat a great master?!"
"If you want to get involved, you have to use your brain!"
Dongfang Guanshan said angrily.
It can be heard that he and Zheng Zhiming don't seem to get along well.
"Uncle Dongfang, what do you mean? Commander Zheng is in Xuzhou. Is he in trouble?"
"Yes, he is in some trouble!"
Dongfang Guanshan nodded and sighed: "The prince ordered me to go to Xuzhou to deal with these troubles of Zheng. Time is a bit tight, I have to go there first, and I can come back to the capital later."
Lin Jiangnian saw this and smiled and said: "Since Uncle Dongfang is busy, I won't bother you!"
Dongfang Guanshan nodded and bowed: "Wait until you have dealt with the matter in Xuzhou. I will come to see your highness again!"
Lin Jiangnian said with a smile on his face: "Thank you, Uncle Dongfang!"
"It's a small matter!"
Dongfang Guanshan waved his hand, looked up and looked at Lin Jiangnian quietly, his eyes were almost squinting. After a moment, he spoke again: "Your highness is the prince's child and our master. Your highness does not need to be so polite. This is what we subordinates should do."
As he said, Dongfang Guanshan hesitated again.
"By the way, Your Highness!"
"There is one more thing!"
"What is it?"
"Before I went to Beijing, the prince asked me to bring a few words to Your Highness..."
Dongfang Guanshan looked at Lin Jiangnian, and the smile on his face faded a little: "The prince asked Your Highness to be careful in Beijing and pay attention to safety... Everything should be based on safety!"
Lin Jiangnian understood and nodded: "I will be careful."
"Also, the prince said that he would not oppose your decision about the matter between you and the princess. However, the prince asked you not to get involved in the struggle for imperial power..."
"The last sentence... The prince said that after you finish handling the affairs in Beijing, leave the capital as soon as possible and return to Linzhou..."
"The prince said that the situation in Beijing may change soon!"
"..."
