"Of course to seek self-protection."

Wu Liang said with a smile.

"Self-preservation?"

Everyone still did not fully understand what Wu Liang said.

Wu Liang smiled and added: "Wen Renzhao gave us such an order overnight, which has broken our previous idea of ​​'don't listen, don't ask, don't care'. If we want to survive these days in peace, I'm afraid it's too late Not too possible."

"Although I haven't figured out Wen Renzhao's true intention at the moment, there are only three outcomes to this matter:"

"First, Wen Renzhao didn't lie to us. The people we killed were indeed heretics in the eyes of Shou Caodao, that is, ordinary people who were not bewitched by Shou Caodao. I can't do such a thing, otherwise I will definitely have bad intentions in the future. disturbed;"

"Secondly, Wen Renzhao deceived us. The people we killed were actually followers of Shou Cao Dao. If so, even if we were not captured and executed by Shou Cao Dao, Wen Renzhao would have taken advantage of us and we would have to do whatever we wanted from now on. It’s up to her;”

"Third, Wen Renzhao is actually testing us. I can vaguely hear from her words that whether it is what Shou Caodao did or what the Great Sage Heavenly Master did, her heart We all have a lot of dissatisfaction, that is to say, she wants to use this matter to test us, to find out our views on Shou Cao Dao, and whether we act on the basis of right and wrong... If so, I should have disobeyed her order before, just like that I have passed her test and have truly become her 'confidant' since then."

"How do you think I should choose?"

Having said this, Wu Liang turned his head and looked at everyone and asked.

"In that case, you should choose the third path, but as you just said, you haven't figured out Wen Renzhao's true intentions yet, so you will actually have to bear some risks with this choice."

Bai Jingjing said thoughtfully.

"That's just one of the reasons."

Wu Liang shook his head with a smile and continued, "Actually, even if I knew that Wen Renzhao was testing us, I would not accept her test, let alone pass her test, because once I passed her test, it would mean If we choose to take sides, she will immediately treat us as her confidants, and then instruct us to do more dangerous things according to her plan. This is not in our interests. After all, although we were forced into the city, we only planned to do A passer-by who stays out of the situation, rather than anyone’s chess piece, which may become abandoned at any time.”

"I see, the young master has thought things through..."

Everyone finally understood Wu Liang's analysis and nodded.

"So now, what exactly do you plan to do?"

Yu Ji stroked his beard and thought for a moment, then returned to the most fundamental question.

"Since we have been forced out of the game, it is probably impossible for us to stay out of the situation. So we have to be chess players who follow the trend."

Wu Liang smiled and said confidently, "We definitely can't kill people. No matter who this family is, as long as we take action, we will be passive. So I want to throw this issue out, no matter what happens afterward." We can either throw it into the hands of Ren Zhao or throw it into the hands of the Great Sage Heavenly Master. In short, we will not accept this issue. If Wen Renzhao and the Great Sage Heavenly Master really have their own agendas, we will have to bring their thoughts to light and intensify them. The conflict between them has muddied the seemingly calm lake, so that they can continue to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers."

…

Soon after.

Wu Liang and others have arrived in front of the "Shou Cao Dao" main altar.

Strangely enough, they didn't even meet a patrolling group along the way. When they arrived in front of the main altar, they saw about twenty guards guarding the main altar at the gate.

Wu Liang stood in the distance and took a look, then led everyone in the Hu army to the main altar gate.

"Stop! Who is coming?"

The guards soon discovered them and immediately raised their weapons and asked loudly.

"Brothers, we are on our own."

Wu Liang signaled for the rest of the army to stop for the time being, and led only Dian Wei forward. He greeted the guards with a smile on his face, "Brothers, you are still standing guard here in the middle of the night, and you are doing your duty meticulously.

Your loyalty to the Heavenly Master is truly admirable, and I admire you very much."

"nonsense!"

The leading guard did not accept his words, and immediately picked up a torch and took a photo of Wu Liang, and then asked with a serious and vigilant face, "Who are you? Why haven't I seen him before?"

you?"

"It's reasonable for eldest brother to have never seen us before. To be honest, we just came to the city with the right protector today. When it was near noon, we also followed the right protector into the main altar to meet the Celestial Master. Now we are working under her."

Wu Liang said with a smile.

"Are you the deserters from Beihai?"

The leading guard had indeed heard about this, and finally relaxed some of his vigilance, and asked with some disdain.

"That's right, I'm going to present you to my eldest brother."

Wu Liang cupped his hands and smiled.

"There is no need to meet the ceremony. The Heavenly Master has issued a ban. No one is allowed to go out and walk around after Haishi. Although you are new here, you should abide by the rules set by the Heavenly Master. Otherwise, you will not only attract punishment for yourself, but also

Even the Right Protector will probably be blamed by the Heavenly Master because of you!"

The leading guard shouted sternly again, "But this is your first offender. For the sake of Protector Right, I won't pursue it this time. If you know what's going on, you can quickly return to your residence and stop wandering around!" The fastest updated mobile version

::

"Brother, I don't know. We are not hanging out late at night, but we have official business."

Wu Liang still had a smile on his face. He came closer and took out a small piece of broken gold and stuffed it into the hands of the leading guard. Then he lowered his voice and said, "This is my little brother's intention. Please accept it and don't dare to hide it."

Brother, this time I went out late at night to eradicate heretics under the orders of the right protector. Unfortunately, I didn’t know the roads in the city when I first arrived. I couldn’t figure out the direction in the middle of the night. I walked to the main altar. I wonder if my brother is familiar with the roads in the city.

, please give me some advice, if I succeed in doing something and am appreciated by the Right Protector, I will certainly offer a thank you gift to my eldest brother?"

"oh?"

The leading guard must have accepted a bribe for the first time. He was stunned for a moment when he received the gold. Then he weighed the two-tael piece of broken gold in his hand with nervousness and surprise, and even put it in his mouth and bit it lightly.

He took a sip, then quickly stuffed it into his arms, lowered his voice and smiled furtively at Wu Liang, "Brother, you are so polite, why don't you just ask for directions? It's a trivial matter, just ask."

"Thank you very much, brother..."

Wu Liang decisively repeated the address given by Wen Renzhao.

"Isn't this a coincidence? I live in that area, brother. I'll send someone to take you there...wait a minute!"

After hearing the address, the leading guard patted his chest and laughed, but only halfway through his words, his expression changed again, and he looked at Wu Liang suspiciously, "Brother, did you remember it wrong? According to me,

As far as I know, the address you mentioned seems to be the house of Jin Lichang. Jin Lichang is a key figure highly regarded by the Celestial Master. When Shoucao Dao first came to Qiancheng County, Jin Lichang did his best to help the Celestial Master preach. The Celestial Master

You even praised him, so how can he be a heretic?"

really!

Wen Renzhao actually deceived Wu Liang. She actually coaxed Wu Liang to lead his men to kill a village chief, and he was a key member of the sect who was highly regarded by the Great Xian Tianshi.

This woman really has no good intentions!

"Isn't it possible? I have confirmed this address several times, there is absolutely no way I can remember it wrong!"

Wu Liang also said with a "surprised" look.

"Then the Right Protector must have made a mistake. Just now I said that almost all the heretics in the city have been cleared away. How come the Right Protector wants to send people to clear them up again... There must be a mistake. It must be the case. Jin Lichang will never

It may be a heresy, brother, you must not do it before you understand this matter, otherwise you may be in catastrophe!"

The leading guard said with great certainty.

"this……"

Wu Liang said with a troubled face, "But this is an order given by Protector Right himself. I really don't dare to disobey. What should I do? Brother, do you have a solution?"

As he spoke, Wu Liang stuffed a small piece of broken gold into the hands of the leading guard and looked at him with a pleading expression.

"Disobedience is also a capital crime...I am afraid that only the Heavenly Master can uphold justice for you in this matter. Please wait here for a moment. I will go in and take a look. If the Heavenly Master has not rested, I will report the matter to the Heavenly Master."

Does he know this?"

For the sake of gold, the leading guard pondered for a moment and finally said.

"The younger brother's life is entirely dependent on the elder brother. As long as the elder brother can save the younger brother, the younger brother will definitely be grateful in the future."

Wu Liang quickly took advantage of the situation and said.

"It's a small matter, just wait."

As he spoke, the leading guard walked quickly into the main altar.

The whole process was much simpler than Wu Liang imagined. He originally thought it would take some time to get the news to the "Great Sage Heavenly Master", but he still underestimated the power of gold.

…

at the same time.

"What on earth is this person doing? How come he came to the main forum in such a roundabout way?"

Wen Renzhao's personal bodyguard hid in the dark and watched Wu Liang's actions, with puzzled and confused expressions on his face.

In fact, just now when Wu Liang and others suddenly changed direction while walking and walked in a circle toward the north of the city, he had already begun to feel a little confused.

However, his mission is to observe secretly, and it is really inconvenient for him to come up and ask questions.

Before he could figure out the intentions of Wu Liang and others, he felt that there was no need to send someone back to report to Wen Renzhao, so he had no choice but to continue following behind, hoping to find out what Wu Liang and others wanted to do before talking about it.

Then.

It has been delayed until now.

It was also now that the personal guard finally realized what was going on, and quickly called a guard over and said, "You should go back to the house immediately to see the young lady, and tell her the whereabouts of this group of people after they left the house in detail. Let's see.

If you have any instructions, young master, please come back to me as soon as possible."

"yes!"
