Vol 2 Chapter 825: undercurrent
Late night.
Cui Clan, in an attic covered by forbidden power.
After listening to what her daughter Cui Jingyan saw and heard tonight, Cui Changan looked gloomy and uncertain.
The third elder is a traitor! ?
I have to say, this news completely unexpected Cui Changan.
Cui Jingyan gave her father a worried look, and comforted: "Father, don't be angry, Su Gongzi said, let's just pretend that you don't know anything right now, so as not to startle the snakes, and you can catch everything at once."
After a pause, she continued: "What's more, the Minglei Mirror has been obtained by Su Gongzi, even when the Lantern Festival comes, it will not affect the power of the Protector's Forbidden Array."
Cui Changan was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but glance at her daughter, and immediately said with relief: "You girl, you have learned to comfort your father, you have really grown up."
Cui Jingyan said a little embarrassedly: "These are all ordered by Su Gongzi, I... I just relayed it to my father."
Cui Changan smiled and said, "Go back and rest first, I already know about these things."
Cui Jingyan nodded, got up and left.
"Those bastards, do you really think your father can't come back alive?"
But the Cui family is far from exhausted, and there is still about a month before the Lantern Festival, but some people in the Cui family can't hold back!
Cui Changan is not afraid of foreign enemies, but he is most afraid of civil strife.
He knows very well that sometimes the collapse of a party's top power often starts from within himself.
There are countless similar examples throughout the ages.
The most famous is the drastic change that occurred in the "Taixuan Cave" five hundred years ago that caused the heavens to shake.
In the end, although Empress Qingtang, the young apprentice of Sword Master Xuanjun, brought down the chaos, but after this battle, Taixuan Dongtian has been torn apart, falling from the dominance of the great wilderness to a low point.
In this battle, the core lies in the forces under the command of Sword Master Xuan Jun, and there is an infighting.
This battle also had a great impact on the pattern of heaven and earth.
In the past years, in the great wilderness, Kyushu, and the heavens, the sword master Xuanjun was revered.
But now, the glory of the past has long been blown away by the wind and rain!
The lessons of the past, the ruts of the future.
Now, the world has begun to spread, Cui family antique Cui Longxiang suffered in the depths of the sea of misery, and can never come back.
Ancient tribes such as the Qu, Hong, and Tantai are beginning to make waves, and they are likely to make waves when the Lantern Festival comes.
Nowadays, even the Cui Clan has traitors, which makes Cui Changan, the Cui Clan's patriarch, not vigilant?
He doesn't want to let the clan that has survived since ancient times be destroyed by his own hands!
"No matter what the reason for the "rebellion" of the three elders, it is absolutely unforgivable!"
Thinking of this, Cui Changan's expression suddenly changed.
Just before Cui Jingyan returned, the three elders came to visit and talked about the three ancient clans of Qu, Hong and Tantai who came to visit during the day.
At that time, Cui Changan did not hide it,
Tell out the meaning of these three ancient clans one by one.
When it comes to the purpose of the ancient Qu clan coming here, they want to enter the Ruins of the Judgment Division, the third elder immediately thought that there was something strange about this matter.
Afterwards, the third elder took the initiative to ask Ying, and wanted to go to the Ruins of Judgment Division to see if there were any changes, just in case.
However, since the secret key to the Ruins of the Judgment Division had been handed over to Su Yi, Cui Changan politely rejected the third elder's proposal, and only told the third elder that he had sent someone to the Ruins of Judgment Division Check the situation!
After that, the third elder left.
But now, after learning that the third elder was a traitor, Cui Changan suddenly realized that the purpose of the third elder coming to visit him tonight was wrong!
During the day, the Qu family just proposed to go to the Ruins of the Judgment Division. Tonight the traitor took the opportunity to go to the Ruins of Judgment Division to check the situation. Could this be a coincidence? "
"Could it be that the three elders and the Qu family have already united, intending to enter the Ruins of the Judgment Division in this way?"
Cui Changan's face was gloomy.
He couldn't sit still.
Because the three elders already know, he has sent people to the Ruins of Judgment Division to investigate the situation.
Under such circumstances, the third elder is very likely to take action and seize this opportunity to enter the Ruins of the Judgment Division!
But soon, Cui Changan calmed down.
"With Uncle Su here, you don't need to worry too much. The third elder may not have imagined what a terrifying existence he is with the secret key to the Ruins of Judgment Division tonight..."
Cui Changan's lips showed a hint of coldness.
"Old Pottery."
Cui Changan suddenly spoke up.
"What has the Lord commanded?"
Silently, an old servant appeared out of nowhere and bowed to greet him.
"Go and check, where are the children and relatives of the third elders now, remember, don't disturb anyone."
Cui Changan instructed, "I'm going to the Ruins of the Judgment Division now, and when I come back, you'd better finish this matter."
"Yes!"
The old servant took orders.
…
In the dark.
Near the Ruins of the Judgment Division in the east of Ziluo City.
"Fellow Daoist Qu, tonight is a golden opportunity. It won't be long before a servant sent by Cui Changan will come to the Ruins of the Judgment Division."
In the darkness of the night, a middle-aged man with gray beard and an immortal style smiled and said.
This person is the third elder of the Cui family, Cui Weizhong!
Beside Cui Weizhong, there were four people standing.
The leader, dressed in a yellow robe, with a childlike face and crane hair, is the old man in yellow robe of the ancient Qu clan who was a guest in the Cui clan today.
The old man in yellow robe said with a smile: "If tonight's event is successful, Brother Cui will be credited!"
Cui Weizhong's eyes flashed, and he also laughed, saying: "I don't want to take any credit, as long as fellow Taoists don't forget to promise me that thing, that's enough."
The old man in yellow robe nodded and said, "Don't worry, what I promise Qu Mingwei will never break my promise!"
Cui Weizhong glanced at the two men and one woman, and suddenly said, "Brother Qu, you haven't introduced the identities of these three fellow Daoists."
The old man in yellow robe, Qu Mingwei, said meaningfully: "The identity of these three fellow Daoists, you still don't
Better know. "
Cui Weizhong was stunned and nodded.
From beginning to end, the two men and one woman stood there, ignoring the conversation between Qu Mingwei and Cui Weizhong.
Their eyes have been staring at an ancient palace standing in the distance in the night.
This palace is thousands of feet high and incomparably magnificent, like a mountain rising from the ground, shrouded in the ink-like night, looking extremely mysterious.
That is the Ruins of the Judgment Division!
In ancient times, the Judgment Division was the most famous prison in the underworld, and all the characters imprisoned in it were terrifying beings that could be called murderous at that time.
At the same time, the Judgment Division is also the execution place for the underworld to punish the wicked.
Among them, there are many emperors!
It is no exaggeration to say that in ancient times, the Judgment Division was undoubtedly the most feared place for the evil people in the world.
However, as the endless years passed, the area where the Judgment Division was located would inevitably turn into an abandoned place.
"Someone is coming."
Suddenly, Qu Mingwei said, "Everyone, don't act without authorization, and see who it is."
Everyone looked into the distance.
"How could it be that kid named Su?"
Qu Mingwei recognized it at a glance and was surprised.
In the Beiwang Pavilion of the Cui family during the day, Su Yi once suppressed Tantai Liu between his palms, and even cultivated in the spirit phase, which shook the emperor Tantai Pond with a blow.
This left a deep impression on Qu Mingwei.
Third Elder Cui Weizhong couldn't help but startled, "Do fellow Daoists recognize this little guy?"
Qu Mingwei said in amazement: "This son's name is Su Yi, and he and Xue Huaning once appeared in the Beiwang Pavilion of your Cui family today. It is said that Xue Huaning chose it for his daughter. How can you not know who to marry?"
Cui Weizhong frowned and said, "That girl Jingyan just returned to the clan today, but I heard that she brought a man back, maybe... it's the little guy named Su Yi in the mouth of fellow Taoists. "
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but wonder, "Strange, how could the patriarch send an outsider to the Ruins of Judgment Division?"
Qu Mingwei's eyes flickered, "Perhaps, the old fox Cui Changan has noticed something and doesn't want to attract the attention of the rest of your clan. Of course, if you want to know the answer, he will be captured later. Just ask and you'll know."
After a pause, he continued: "Furthermore, the secret key to enter the Judgment Division requires a unique secret technique, and even I don't know the secret of this secret technique, if it hurts this child, let's Even if you get the secret key, you can't enter it."
Qu Mingwei frowned.
At this moment, among the two men and one woman, a tall, thin man in a gray robe suddenly said:
"After this child opens the seal of entering the Judgment Division, we can take the opportunity to sneak into it."
After a pause, he continued: "If this child is aware of it, then I will take action and erase this memory in this child's mind. But Cui Changan will never want to know what happened tonight."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's spirits were lifted.
In the very distance, Su Yi's tall figure was approaching the magnificent palace.
