Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 22 Left and Right

People who enter Shenhou Mansion for the first time will feel that it is much bigger than expected.

Hindsight even thought it was twice as big as the entire Pingyang City, but in fact the area here was less than half of the outside.The reason why he had the illusion was that not only the roads in Shenhou Mansion were tortuous, but also densely forested, which was more complicated and difficult to walk than any maze.

"Master Xuanling Pavilion!"

Hindsight Pao heard a call, turned around and saw an old eunuch waving at him in front, hurriedly followed and asked:
"Eunuch Bai, what do you call me?"

"Master Xuanling Pavilion!" Eunuch Bai repeated again.

"What cabinet master?"

"You are such a noble man who forgets things." Bai Gonggong explained in a flattering tone: "In the past, the Zhou family repeatedly violated the border. Shen Hou took revenge for finding a mysterious object. He left for more than ten years. Three years ago, the Zhou family made a big move. Infringing the border coincides with a group of dragons without a leader and a disastrous defeat. A country cannot be without a master. The eldest son Jiang Ying announced to the world that whoever can find Shen Hou will be given a thousand gold shells, a hundred catties of pearls and jade, and will be named the master of the Xuanling Pavilion, ranking among the top. The ranks of the patriarchs!"

Afterwards, Pao suddenly woke up, and almost forgot that he was here to be awarded.It was no wonder that he was dizzy at this moment.Eunuch Bai, who was in charge of escorting him, had already led him around in a circle for an hour, stopping several times in the middle to avoid the secret compartment of the mechanism.

This made Hindsight feel ashamed, if any blind assassin wanted to come here to assassinate, even if he didn't get lost and starve to death, he would have to be shot to death with a hidden weapon on the way.Thinking about it the other way around, those noble family members living in the Hou Mansion must be very important.They go in and out of such a house with many organs. If they don't have some skills, they will lose their own way and lose their lives in vain.

Following Eunuch Bai across the mottled stone arch bridge, he saw a small house in hindsight, the size of which was similar to that of a latrine, and the door was only two people wide.In hindsight, I can't figure out what is the purpose of placing such a strange building in a hidden forest?

Eunuch Bai stopped in front of the door and turned around, raised his little finger, cupped his hands and said:

"This old slave congratulates you in advance! After seeing the adults inside later, you will be able to rise to the top and skyrocket. It can be said that the future is boundless!"

Although he knew that Eunuch Bai was flattering himself, he was still flattered in hindsight.Because all along, he has been chasing other people's horses, and he has been flattering others.

This was the first time he felt being flattered by others, and it was also the first time he felt that living in this world was such a pleasant thing, and the Bai Gonggong who gave him the first time seemed so kind, so Human touch.Everything is as beautiful as he expected, as long as he snatches the corpse brought back by Su Ji, he can make his humble life shine.

Afterwards Pao followed Eunuch Bai into the room, and when he stepped on the threshold, he was stunned.

The walls inside the door are empty, and there is nothing.

When he turned around, Eunuch Bai touched some mechanism, and the whole ground suddenly began to loosen and sink.After shaking violently for a while, the square ground suddenly stopped at a certain place, and the eyes suddenly opened up.This place is dozens of times larger than above, like an empty square.

In hindsight, Pao suddenly realized that the real location of confiscation was underground.

Eunuch Bai stretched out a hand and respectfully made a "please" gesture.

Afterwards, with a satisfied face, he strode forward.In the distance, a red velvet carpet several hundred meters long leads to the blood-red banner embroidered with fierce beasts and gluttonous beasts. There are more than 20 people in red totem costumes sitting below.In hindsight, you can feel the gazes of those people from a distance, all of them are as sharp as hawks, and you can't help feeling a little fear, and whispered to Eunuch Bai:

"Has Shen Hou verified that he is upright? There should be no mistake, right?"

Eunuch Bai replied decisively:

"Based on the old slave's years of experience in serving Shen Hou, I can guarantee with my life that there will be no mistakes. Just put your heart in your stomach and be your master of the Xuanling Pavilion comfortably!"

Hindsight nodded, held his head high, and walked proudly along the red carpet.The red carpet hundreds of meters long stretches into the distance like a red line.Two rows of fully armed elite soldiers were nailed on both sides of the red carpet like nails.In hindsight, I never thought that my life would be connected with such a sacred place, and I couldn't help but feel an indescribable excitement in my heart, tears of joy already wet my eyes.

As he walked step by step, he heard two voices faintly echoing in the vast space:

A high voice said:

"Old Cicada, this statement is wrong. Xuanhu Sect's reputation in Jiejiao is already in the sky! Compared with some princes and princes who can only beg for mercy from the Zhou family's Zen Sect, the succession of Master Hu's Mo Shu as the leader is what everyone expects! "

An old woman's voice sneered:
"Master Yuyang, how can you say that the reputation of the eldest son Jiang Ying will be lower than that of Mo Shu? If he hadn't been in charge of the government these years, shoveling traitors and shoveling sycophants, I'm afraid he would have been ruined by a Xuanhu sect who pretended to be a ghost. This land!"

Although the old woman's voice was hoarse, it was very powerful and very loud.

The echoes one after another made the murderous atmosphere around him a little bit more intense.Even Hindsight Pao, who just came in, can smell the smell of gunpowder here.

The two people who must have spoken in hindsight were Lao Chan and Yuyang Daoist among the four priests.The strange thing is that these two people were originally Jiang Ying's disciples, and they were always on the same boat, but for some reason, the real Yuyang today turned his back on the battle and started to speak for Mo Shu.

Afterwards, I can't figure it out, and I don't want to understand it.Now he only cares about his own safety, and just wants to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.His hands began to tremble, and he already realized that those people in the bloody gluttonous totem costumes were the twenty or so elders of the Jiejiao, and this was the place where they discussed their affairs.He had already heard about this place.Most of the serious criminals who stained the Dongshi Execution Ground red with their blood were big figures who once dominated here.

Thinking of this, he stepped back subconsciously, and submissively declined:
"The adults seem to have arrived long ago. I'm late this time, so let's talk about it next time."

Before he finished speaking, Eunuch Bai grabbed his hand and said with a warm smile:
"The Hou's Mansion has the rules of the Hou's Mansion. The more important people are, the later they will enter. Today you are the protagonist, and they came early, so they have to wait for you. What do you think, Master Xuan Ling?"

Hindsight complained secretly, the owner of Xuanling Pavilion should belong to Su Ji, he was willing to do good things for him, but he didn't want to bear bad things.However, right now it is impossible for him to get out by himself, and he can only believe in Bai Gonggong's words. As he gets closer step by step, his heart is getting colder and colder...

He saw that the chief directly below the banner was empty, and there were three snake-carved Qinan Taishi chairs on each side, and two empty chairs on each side.This shows that only two of the four high priests have come, and Jiang Ying and Mo Shu have not yet arrived.It seems that the real rules are not what Eunuch Bai said, and today's protagonist is not the master of Xuanling Pavilion!
"The poor way is far away, please sit on the left side of Xuanling Pavilion Master."

It was the real Yuyang who was sitting on the grand master's chair on the left who was speaking.

Afterwards Pao thought that Daoist Yuyang was just a title, but he didn't expect that he really had two goat horns.At first he thought the two horns were just decorations, but when he looked closely, he found that the roots of the horns were tightly connected with the skull, apparently growing out of the head.

Afterwards, I walked obediently to the left, and suddenly heard someone coughing deliberately on the right. I turned my head and found that the coughing person was a kind old woman with a cat lying in her arms.

The cat's ears are big, its body is basically hairless, its flesh-colored skin looks very elastic, and its sultry movements are very cute.After the old woman coughed, she slowly raised her face.

Afterwards, the legs became weak with fright, and the heart twitched fiercely. I saw that the old woman had a cat face, and the wrinkles on her face were like orange peels!
"The left is humble and the right is respectful, the pavilion master please sit on the right."

It was not the old woman who spoke, but the cat lying in her arms.The cat's face was lifted up, and it turned out to be the face of an old woman, with a half-smile and a creepy expression.

The priest, Lao Chan, turned out to be a cat with a human face!

Eunuch Bai was too frightened to make a sound when he saw Hindsight, and quickly whispered in his ear:
"According to the law of etiquette, the master of the Xuanling Pavilion is also among the elders, and has the right to elect a successor."

In hindsight, it suddenly dawned on me that this seat is not just for everyone.Daoist Yuyang has been speaking for Mo Shu just now, so it can be seen that Mo Shu's people are on the left, and Jiang Ying's people are on the right, headed by Lao Chanchan.

After counting, there were 12 people on the left and 11 people on the right.There is only one person difference between the two sides. If you sit on the left, you will inevitably offend the person on the right.

Hindsight began to hesitate.

Unprecedented fear, hesitation, and uneasiness wrapped around him like twisted twine.

Just as he was hesitating, the footsteps of two people came from behind him.

People's eyes were all gathered behind the hindsight, but he himself didn't dare to look back.

"Kudden, kudden..."

Leather boots made a dull sound on the red carpet, and the sound of two footsteps was getting closer.

Afterwards, the breathing became heavier and heavier, and his face became more and more ugly...
