"Who are you? Kidnapping an official of the Imperial Court is punishable by death! "
Facing Bai Xiaowen and his men, Zhen Dexiu was not afraid at all. He even scolded them sternly.
If it were any other bandit, they would have been scared stiff by him.
However, Bai Xiaowen was very calm. "I am the leader of the Changsen Sect. These are my subordinates, the four Dharma Kings. "
Zhen Dexiu, "???"
Bai Xiaowen continued, "The Changsen Sect is a hidden branch of the Taoist Sect. We actively enter the world and take it as our responsibility to slay demons and devils." He raised his palm and a dazzling lightning flashed slightly.
Seeing this, Zhen Dexiu more or less believed him. He hissed, "Since you are Taoist Sect cultivators, why did you kidnap me here?"
Bai Xiaowen said, "There are demons and devils in the Imperial Court, and they hold high positions. We want to slay demons and devils, but we are worried that innocent people will be hurt in the dense population of Lin 'an City! Therefore, we need your help to lure out the demons who are pretending to be officials. "
"There are demons in the Imperial Court? Impossible! "Zhen Dexiu shook his head in disbelief.
Bai Xiaowen gestured, and Sig Delifa brought the rabbit demon Zhang Xi over.
"This is a Patrol Inspector of the Department of Secrets. His name is Zhang Xi, and he works for Li Zhixiao." After Bai Xiaowen introduced him, he suddenly released a strong wave of True Inner Force to suppress Zhang Xi's aura. "Hurry up and show your true form!"
Zhang Xi quivered and lay down on the ground. A fat rabbit with big ears appeared.
The scene in front of him made Zhen Dexiu dumbfounded. Although he did not know Zhang Xi, the official uniform Zhang Xi was wearing was very difficult to fake.
Zhen Dexiu stood up and saluted Bai Xiaowen. "This … master, since you are here to slay demons and devils, why can't you talk nicely? Why did you have to kidnap me and cause a lot of misunderstandings? "
"If not, I'm afraid you won't believe me. Besides, there are Li Zhixiao's spies in Lin 'an City. I'm afraid we will alert the enemy and ruin the plan. "Bai Xiaowen said.
Zhen Dexiu agreed and said, "My knowledge is shallow."
The Four Heavenly Kings, especially Sig Delifa, admired Bai Xiaowen's ability to fool Zhen Dexiu.
The two of them exchanged names.
Zhen Dexiu said, "Daoist Lv, you mentioned Li Zhixiao twice just now. Is he the demon that sneaked into the royal court?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and did not beat around the bush. He said directly, "He's just a henchman of the demons. The real leader of the demons is someone else."
Zhen Dexiu's expression changed. "Li Zhixiao has always followed Shi Miyuan's lead. Since he's a henchman, then the chief is … "
"That's right, the current Prime Minister, Shi Miyuan!"
Zhen Dexiu was shocked. The fact that the Prime Minister was a fiendish demon was simply unimaginable. However, in Zhen Dexiu's subconscious mind, he believed this because he and Shi Miyuan were political enemies. He would definitely have the thought of "sudden realization" —
[I knew you weren't a good person! No wonder you didn't respect the previous emperor's will and set up a new emperor. You have a very bad conscience.]
Bai Xiaowen continued, "I've also heard of how much Shi Miyuan values Sir Zhen. If Sir Zhen writes a letter and uses him as bait to invite him out of Lin 'an prefecture to discuss matters at Mount Wuyun, he will definitely come. "
Zhen Dexiu was displeased. "Am I someone who would lower myself to be a thief?"
Bai Xiaowen shook his head and tried to persuade him, but Zhen Dexiu was still unwilling to change his mind and pretended to defect to Shi Miyuan.
Bai Xiaowen threatened, "If Sir Zhen doesn't obey, then I can only search for Sir Zhen's seal and forge a letter." He had no other choice. Why was this famous scholar so inflexible and stubborn?
Zhen Dexiu took a step back. "Wait, even if I trick Shi Miyuan to come here, can you guys take him down? You should know that Shi Miyuan has recruited many experts from the Strategy Department and the Imperial Palace Guards! "
Bai Xiaowen said indifferently, "How can ordinary people know about Daoist supernatural powers? I can actually kill my way into Lin 'an prefecture and break into Shi Miyuan's residence to capture him alive, but I don't want to disturb the people. Moreover, supernatural powers shouldn't be shown in front of ordinary people. As long as Shi Miyuan comes to Mount Wuyun, even if he brings thousands of troops with him, it'll be easy for me to capture him. "
Zhen Dexiu's expression changed several times, but he still agreed to cooperate in the end.
…
The next morning, Shi Miyuan's carriages left the west gate of Lin 'an prefecture and went straight to Mount Wuyun.
Zhen Dexiu and two servants also greeted him at the foot of Mount Wuyun. "Thank you for taking the time to meet me, Sir Zhen."
After Shi Miyuan got out of the carriage, he cupped his hands and smiled. "It's rare for Brother Zhen to invite me to change my mind. No matter how busy I am, I have to squeeze some time out!"
Zhen Dexiu forced a smile.
Shi Miyuan waved his hand and dismissed the group of attendants. He only brought a few experts with him and stepped into the east foot of Mount Wuyun with Zhen Dexiu.
They saw a simple and unadorned building in the distance. Shi Miyuan smiled. "Is this the former residence of Shi Dongzhai of the Tang Dynasty?"
Zhen Dexiu nodded. "Yes."
Shi Miyuan smiled. "Shi Dongzhai was the first Zhuangyuan of Lin 'an. I've admired him for a long time. Brother Zhen is really a wonderful person to be able to find this place … "
Zhen Dexiu kept silent and suddenly sped up his pace.
Shi Miyuan asked curiously, "Brother Zhen, why are you in a hurry? When visiting the old residences of our predecessors, we should take it slow and leisurely. "
Suddenly, a voice sounded. "Traveling with a gentleman is of course joyful and harmonious. But traveling with a demon is a thorn in the back. "
Shi Miyuan's expression changed. The four experts beside him stepped forward at the same time and protected him in the center. They shouted, "Who is it? Come out!"
Bai Xiaowen appeared from the top of Shi Dongzhai's Jade Ruler Tower in front of them. He stepped on the air like a banished immortal.
The Four Heavenly Kings came out from the forest at the foot of the mountain at the same time.
Bai Xiaowen's Eyes of Evolution swept over Shi Miyuan. He shook his head and said, "Your strength is mediocre. I made such a big lineup, but I was worried too much. "
Delifa Sig smiled. "Master is lenient in anticipating the enemy. That's why he has established an undefeated record since his debut."
Shi Miyuan's strength was only at the level of a Level 16 Rare leader. He wasn't even a Lord.
The four experts beside him were all leader-level aura qi martial artists. At most, there were five leaders.
On Bai Xiaowen's side, there were four Lords. In addition, Bai Xiaowen was an existence comparable to a King. It was indeed an overwhelming advantage.
Shi Miyuan's expression changed, and his mung bean-sized eyes looked around. He couldn't sense the aura of any opponent! It was enough to show that the opponent was strong and undefeatable. Only running away was the best plan.
Bai Xiaowen seemed to have seen through his thoughts. He smiled and said, "Shi Miyuan, don't think about running away, and don't expect reinforcements. I've already set up two layers of formations on the east foot of Mount Wuyun. One layer is used to prevent you from escaping, and the other layer is used to isolate sound … Surrender, lest I accidentally kill you. "
