Chapter 878: The Stone Man Doesn’t Open His Eyes
Cui Yu was very proud. No matter who planned something, as long as it went according to the predetermined track designed by him, he would have an inexplicable sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
This sense of accomplishment cannot be replaced by any other sense of accomplishment.
Especially now that Cui Yu sees the separation of life and death, he feels quite happy.
However, the storm in Baiyun City has just begun.
Nourishing the Heart in the Palace
Xuan Zi's face was respectful. After a series of inspections, his whole body was carefully examined before he was placed into the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart.
Although there are Xuan Ye's handwriting and edict, it is still extremely cautious for outsiders to enter Yangxin Palace.
The Yangxin Palace is very large and is a palace.
Just like the Forbidden City, can you say that the Forbidden City is small?
No way!
Xuan Zi was led by guards along the way, and he heard a melancholy flute sound in the distance between heaven and earth.
"That's the main hall in front of you. Go and see the Emperor." The guard said.
After hearing what the guard said, Xuan Zi stepped forward, followed the sound of the flute in the distance, and saw an old man with white beard and hair standing under a big willow tree in a garden.
The old man held a flute in his hand, and the melodious sound of the flute radiated out along with the sound.
Although the man was already very old, a wave of memory soon came to his mind, and the face in front of him and the outline of the face in memory began to gradually merge.
Although he was not very similar to the domineering man with black hair in his memory, Xuan Zi still recognized him at first sight.
The outline and facial features are still similar.
Xuan Zi stood behind the old man with a respectful expression, a twinkle in his eyes, and watched the old man playing the flute quietly, with a touch of emotion in his eyes.
The hero is dying!
He felt a trace of twilight in his grandfather.
His grandfather was such a heroic figure in the past, but now he is like a dragon trapped in a shallow beach, and has long lost the heroic aura of the past.
There was a hint of thought in Xuan Zi's eyes.
I don’t know how long it took, but when it was time to turn on the lamp, the sound of the flute finally stopped. The old man turned his head and looked at Xuan Zi: "Which family are you a descendant of? I didn't expect that there were new faces in the cold cell of the lonely king. "
"This is not a prison cell. Grandpa Huang enjoys his happiness here." Hearing this, Xuan Zi quickly replied, then with a 'plop' sound, his knees softened and he knelt down:
"My grandson, Xuan Zi, pays homage to Grandpa Huang. You hugged your grandson when he was young. Grandpa, do you still remember your grandson?"
"Xuan Zi? I remember you! I didn't expect that more than ten years have passed in the blink of an eye, and you have become an adult. If you hadn't revealed your identity, I might not have recognized you. When I hugged you back then, you didn't even know you. It's up to my knees!" The Emperor's voice was full of lamentation.
In the blink of an eye, has he actually been imprisoned for so many years?
unbelievable!
I don’t know the years in the deep palace.
"You are so thoughtful, you little brat." The Supreme Emperor patted Xuan Zi on the shoulder: "After I was trapped here, those people outside wished they could stay away from me to avoid being implicated. In the past, I was quite The juniors who love and look up to me are all afraid of them like tigers."
His eyes were full of emotion, and his eyes were full of sadness.
All gone!
No matter how beautiful you are, try it after you are in trouble.
That kind of huge psychological gap is hard for people to accept.
"Did you bring wine?" the Supreme Emperor asked.
Hearing the words of the Supreme Emperor, Xuan Zi couldn't help but be stunned, with a look of astonishment in his eyes.
"Silly boy, the lonely king asked you if you brought any wine?" The Supreme Emperor said angrily: "Since I was imprisoned here, I have never had a drink."
"How about I go outside and get you two jars?" Xuan Zi raised his head cautiously and asked.
After hearing what Xuan Zi said, the Supreme Emperor shook his head: "Forget it."
"There must be a reason why a junior like you was let in by Xuan Ye. Tell me what Xuan Ye's evil plan was." The Supreme Emperor said unhurriedly.
Hearing the words of the Supreme Emperor, Xuan Zi gave a wry smile: "My grandson missed Grandpa Huang and specifically asked his father for a decree, and he agreed."
"He would have such good intentions?" The Emperor didn't believe it.
Just when the Supreme Emperor was sneering in his heart, Xuan Zi in front of him quietly made a move inadvertently.
Looking at that action, the Supreme Emperor couldn't help but shrink his pupils. This was an action only performed by his group of cronies.
"This kid???" Countless thoughts surged in the Supreme Emperor's mind.
Xuan Zi, who was opposite him, retracted his chin without any trace, as if he was nodding in response to the Emperor's question.
Countless thoughts were rolling in the Supreme Emperor's heart, and there was a hint of suspicion in his eyes. He hadn't gone out for more than ten years. Did someone outside rebel and ask this kid to deceive him? Or did someone really find an opportunity?
It’s been more than ten years!
After being imprisoned in the deep palace for more than ten years, even though the deep palace compound is very spacious, it is still a prison.
I have been looking at the same scenery for more than ten years and I am finally tired of it.
He can't wait!
The lifespan of a bloodline person is limited. This is the only opportunity he has seized in more than ten years. He seems to have no other choice but to believe.
If he waited any longer, he would probably lose all his bones.
He must get rid of that evil obstacle in his lifetime to get rid of the bad breath in his heart.
The Supreme Emperor looked at Xuan Zi with a strange look in his eyes. Now that the opportunity was rare, he could only choose to believe and take a gamble.
Besides, the core secret is still in my own hands. Even if something goes wrong, as long as I don't let go, what can Xuan Ye do to me?
It would be great if there was a chance to escape.
If he waits another twenty or thirty years before escaping, how much can he accomplish by then?
So the Emperor said calmly: "Tell me about the things outside! I have been trapped here for more than ten years, and I am very interested in many things outside."
When Xuan Zi heard this, he stopped talking and began to talk about the situation outside. In particular, we will focus on the fact that Wang Ce, the king of Zhenshan, is now too strong to lose his troops, as well as the personnel transfers in the court in recent years, as well as the various suppression and exile methods started after Xuan Ye suppressed the Supreme Emperor.
The Supreme Emperor just listened expressionlessly, but he had some concerns in his heart: "It seems that there are still a lot of forces left by the lonely king back then, and they are all hidden in the dark. I just don't know if those people have changed their minds after so many years. , there are a few people who can continue to be loyal to the king after going through the test of time."
Along with the narration, the moon gradually reached the sky. Xuan Zi stopped his movements and looked at the Emperor who was listening intently: "Grandpa Huang, it's already very late today. I'll talk to you about many things when I get back."
The Supreme Emperor did not force him. Since Xuan Zi could come for the first time, he could come for the second time.
"You, a junior, are the first to see me in more than ten years. It seems a little inappropriate if the lonely king doesn't give you a reward when he meets this junior." The Supreme Emperor's voice was full of emotion, and he stretched out his palm. After groping in his sleeves, he took out a piece of Ruyi jade from his sleeve after a long time: "Back then, the lonely king came into this palace in a hurry, and only this jade Ruyi was always with him. If you, a junior, are interested in coming to see me, this jade will be with you." If you wish, I will reward you."
"Thank you, Grandpa Huang." Xuan Zi knelt down directly on the ground, kowtowed to the Supreme Emperor, then respectfully took Yu Ruyi and withdrew.
Looking at Xuan Zi's back, the Supreme Emperor looked deeply, took out his jade flute and started playing it slowly under the moonlight.
Xuan Zi took Yu Ruyi and just turned the corner when he saw three guards staring at him.
Obviously these people were spying on him before.
Seeing this, Xuan Zi quickly took out the Jade Ruyi in his hand and said, "Except for giving me a Jade Ruyi, Grandpa Huang didn't explain anything. Do you want to check the Jade Ruyi?"
Hearing Xuan Zi's words, the leader of the guards shook his head: "In the past, when the late emperor entered the Forbidden Palace, all his belongings were inspected. His Highness can leave as he pleases."
Xuan Zi nodded when he heard this, put away Jade Ruyi, and walked out of Yangxin Palace.
"Um?"
After walking out of Yangxin Palace, Xuan Zi touched the jade Ruyi in his hand, his eyes twinkling: "There must be something wrong with this jade Ruyi."
Taking Yu Ruyi back to his palace, Xuan Zi looked at it carefully and couldn't see anything unusual about Yu Ruyi.
"Sir, maybe you can tell what secret this jade Ruyi hides?" Xuan Zi asked.
After hearing what Xuan Zi said, Song Fuyun took the jade Ruyi and looked at it for a long time before shaking his head: "I can't tell."
"There must be something wrong with this Yu Ruyi! And it's a big problem!" Xuan Zi said firmly.
After hearing this, Song Fuyun stroked Yu Ruyi and fell into deep thought.
"Sir, the people in the Forbidden Palace are very arrogant, and they are always monitored by secret techniques. Every word and deed of us is under the surveillance of the guards. The late emperor simply cannot pass down the usage of Yu Ruyi. Even if we get this jade Ruyi is of no use." Xuan Zi's voice was full of helplessness.
"We don't have the usage of Yu Ruyi, and soon someone will tell us how to use Yu Ruyi." Song Fuyun said with a smile, but he was not in a hurry.
"Huh?" Hearing this, Xuan Zi was stunned: "Who can tell us how to use Yu Ruyi?"
"An old minister of the late emperor." Song Fuyun said firmly: "As long as His Highness opens his mouth and spreads the news that the late emperor sent Yu Ruyi, someone will definitely come to visit. This person must be the late emperor's confidant and knows how to use Yu Ruyi."
Xuan Zi's eyes lit up when he heard this, with a burning look in his eyes: "Sir, you are so smart! I don't know how lucky Xiao Wang is to be able to get help from him."
Song Fuyun looked at Xuan Zi and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I just hope that one day, His Highness will not blame me."
Xuan Zi got something good, and it spread quickly.
Xuan Ye, who was in the inner palace, was disapproving of the news and waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat.
He had known about the Jade Ruyi for a long time, and he had played with it for a while. It was just an ordinary Jade Ruyi.
a certain day
Xuan Zi and Song Fuyun were walking on the road, holding a jade Ruyi in their hands, and kept walking on the street. Suddenly a beggar passed by and glanced at Xuan Zi's Yu Ruyi. The next moment, he and Xuan Zi bumped into each other. Then Xuan Zi felt that there was something extra in his sleeve.
"Asshole, you blind bitch, don't you walk without eyes? Your Highness, you dare to bump into him? If you bump into a nobleman, I will kill your whole family." Seeing this scene, Song Fuyun suddenly stepped forward, grabbed the beggar and covered his head with it. He gave the beggar a heavy beating and was beaten to death.
"That's all, don't blame him, it's just dirty clothes." Xuan Zi still looked polite and gentle.
After hearing Xuan Bin's words, Song Fuyun cursed and took back his palm, then spat: "Little thief, His Highness is merciful, otherwise I would have to shave you off today."
The two continued shopping and waited until dark before returning to the mansion.
After entering the secret room and opening the paper ball, both of them couldn't help but shrink their pupils.
At this time, when Xuan Zi and Song Fuyun had gained something, Cui Yu was also sitting in front of the lights, staring blankly at a young man holding a lantern on the street in a daze.
If he hadn't mastered the ability to resurrect the dead and be sure that a person's life aura and origin would not change, he would never have believed that a person who should never have appeared here actually appeared here.
Cui Yu looked at the young man. The young man seemed to feel something. He turned to look at the restaurant. When he saw Cui Yu's face clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned. His eyes were also full of disbelief.
"Why are you here?"
"Why are you here?"
The two spoke at the same time, their voices filled with disbelief.
Who is the person in front of Cui Yu?
Who else could it be if he wasn't Cui Yu's protector Shoucheng?
At that time, Shoucheng said that he was going to solve a big problem for the human race, and then he lost track of him. But who knew that when they met again, Shoucheng would actually appear here?
This is simply unbelievable!
Where is this place?
The ancestral land of the Xuan family is protected by the innate formation. How could Shoucheng appear here?
Cui Yu looked at Shoucheng, and Shoucheng looked at Cui Yu. They looked at each other, their eyes full of surprise and shock.
Shoucheng knew Cui Yu's ability to cause trouble. No matter where Cui Yu went, he would always be in trouble.
The two of them looked at each other. Shoucheng looked at Cui Yu with his eyes fixed on him: "Speak first."
"I want to destroy the Xuan family, so I'm here." Cui Yu said.
He didn't hide anything.
After hearing Cui Yu's words, Shoucheng's pupils shrank and his face instantly turned pale.
"What's wrong?" Cui Yu asked.
"Why are you here? According to my guess, you shouldn't be here." Cui Yu looked at Shoucheng in confusion.
"You shouldn't have come." Shoucheng looked at Cui Yu with his eyes full of solemnity and seriousness: "No matter how you came here, you must leave here immediately. Leave now and don't stay for a moment!"
"What's wrong?" Cui Yu heard the horror in Shoucheng's words: "If you don't explain clearly and answer the doubts in my heart, how can I leave?"
Shoucheng fell into silence after hearing this. He stared at Cui Yu for a long time and then sighed leisurely: "There is a big trouble here! An unprecedented big trouble! A big trouble related to the rise and fall of our human race!"
