These players are more cunning than cunning

Chapter 285 King Xinyi's Shock
On the barren land.

Jiao Wuyu, Xu Huan and others continued on their journey and finally stopped in the mountains.

Xu Huan was followed by several fellow disciples and fellow students, some alive and some dead.

"Congratulations." Jiao Wuyu smiled and said, "You are free."

Xu Huan smiled bitterly and shook his head slowly.

The previous wish was to escape from the cage.

But after actually escaping, he suddenly didn't know where to go.

This era was too strange for him.

I feel like an ancient person who traveled through time from 280,000 years ago.

"Do you know who that extremely mysterious existence is?" Jiao Wuyu asked.

"I am not sure as well."

Xu Huan said: "But now it seems that they may not come for us."

"Oh?" Jiao Wuyu was surprised.

"From the whole incident, the ultimate beneficiary is not only me, but also him. The other party got a black three flowers."

Xu Huan said, "That person's goal may have been to get the tomb owner from the beginning. I was just the bait to lure her out."

"The other party lured the tomb owner out, and I don't know what method they used to help her awaken. Then, when the three flowers bloomed, I don't know what method they used to make her transfer the three flowers."

Jiao Wuyu nodded.

This is definitely an ingenious chain of tactics.

"That person should be a being from ancient times." Jiao Wuyu sighed, "He is suspected to be from the Wusheng Sect and is proficient in calculations."

"That's true." Xu Huan said with a smile.

Jiao Wuyu nodded.

But Jiao Wuyu still had something to say.

She had seen that scene before.

When she went to the Jiaojiazhai ruins to rescue Li Youzhu, she met such a group of people.

He also killed the Split Shadow Archer and that group of cultists.

He was stabbing himself with a knife while shouting wildly.

What are "Vacuum Homeland", "Great Ancient God", "Eternal Old Saint"?
All in all, it's very thrilling!

I think, those cultists are worshipping the other side!

I'm afraid that the Sword-Forging Villa has become a secret base of the other party.

Even Li Youzhu was among them. I'm afraid he has become a member of this mysterious cult?

She thought to herself:
"Li Youzhu not only asked me to rescue Xu Huan, but also found another helper and asked this evil cult ancestor to help rescue people?"

Multiple calculations are very much like Li Youzhu's style.

Moreover, Li Youzhu loves to stir up trouble and make friends widely.

When Xu Huan awakened that year, he was also the one who discovered that there was something wrong with Xu Huan and started to hint at him wildly.

Otherwise, Xu Huan would not have noticed anything unusual and nothing would have happened afterwards.

Looking at it from another angle, Li Youzhu's crazy trouble-making has ruined his own family.

This kind of person has too many tricks up his sleeve, so it's normal that he has attracted some evil cult now.

Who knows what cards he has hidden?
I just don’t know if there will be any danger after joining that cult.

Jiao Wuyu sighed and said, "Where are you going next?"

"I want to save people, my master." Xu Huan thought about it and realized that this was the only target he could find.

"Is she still in Xinyizhou Prison?" Jiao Wuyu asked.

"Yeah." Xu Huan nodded.

"That's troublesome."

Jiao Wuyu said calmly, "To rescue you ghosts, you need a key, and to save Yi Xinjing, you need to find her heart before you can rescue her."

The core of a state of mind is the heart.

Their heads and limbs can regenerate, and no matter how they are dismembered, they can grow back.

Existence of this level is extremely terrifying.

The French copper mines are of no importance at all.

There is no need for them to save the head, let alone other limbs.

As long as you find that heart, all parts can be regenerated on the spot.

At that time.

The French copper mine will also become a dead mine and will no longer recover or grow.

Jiao Wuyu said: "For beings of this level, the heart is the key to open the prison."

Xu Huan certainly understood: "Master's heart is probably in the hands of King Xinyi, or even in the distant capital."

There are two locations.

But no one can say for sure which one it is.

After all, he is the old god of the old dynasty and he is still alive.

Those who have survived to this day are basically very powerful beings, so they are naturally strictly guarded and are not allowed to escape from prison.

Moreover, since the founding of the country, there has never been a prison escape, and no one can get their heart back.

"Are you going to die?" Jiao Wuyu said.

"No." Xu Huan said: "I plan to go to the city of the old humans to see if I can seek help."

The remnants of the old dynasty will certainly not be easily wiped out.

In that era, many ancient holy places and great religions lasted much longer than the current Jiusui Dynasty.

It can even be traced back to the previous dynasty.

Although they were defeated by the saint, they were not stupid enough to leave their remaining forces and hide.

The imperial court also turned a blind eye.

After all, besides the human race, there are many other races, such as dragons, unicorns, sea creatures, and subhumans.
They only regard the "old humans" as one of the foreign races. As long as you don't make trouble, the court will not bother to pay attention to you.

Jiao Wuyu thought for a moment:

"I think someone will help you there. The headmaster of Yuanchu Holy Land is said to be very famous in prehistoric times. If you go there, you might even run into your master's prehistoric friends."

"Then I'll go back to the Sea Clan first." Jiao Wuyu said, "I was planning to go home and take a look, but unfortunately, I was lured by those rebels to participate in this attack."

"Then contact me if you have any questions." Xu Huan said.

The two said goodbye and went their separate ways.

three days later.

Scale gate.

Most of the streets have been rebuilt on top of the ruins. Monks come and go, chanting spells, planting trees and building houses. The roadside is covered with green grass and flowers again, and the floor is paved with bricks.

The teleportation array in Qiancheng of Xinyi Continent has been extremely popular in the past few days.

Not everyone dared to hide in a restaurant on the city wall and watch this battle of the century during the war.

Most people stayed away, just to protect themselves.

Only after the battle was over did a large number of tourists come here to admire this "historical corridor".

The vegetable market in Linmen was even more prosperous. People spontaneously recorded history and erected a row of bronze statues in the middle. In the square, there was a bronze statue of a cold-blooded swordsman wiping his blade, and a bronze statue of an angry prisoner shouting and kneeling on the ground, roaring:

"We are not your livestock! We are not your mines."

"Old humans are also people."

The bronze statue of the old man wept bitterly and roared miserably.
"Me! We are also living human beings!!"

And below are several bronze statues of indifferent and mocking people.

These lifelike statues continue to talk, recreating the "history" of the time.

"Everyone, we are now seeing a piece of history from the performance of the bronze statue!"

"This is a piece of history from... three days ago."

"The historical corridor we are in now is... the Gate of Hell!"

A handsome scholar holding a folding fan volunteered to act as a tour guide and gave a free introduction.

Someone murmured quietly: "Isn't this the Scale Gate?"

"No, this is the Hades Gate. The owner of the tomb here is the leader of the Styx, Xu Huan."

"The 3,000 city walls of Xinyizhou are known as the Xinyi History Book. This section of the city wall history records the "Xu Huan Case"."

The scholar pointed to the heroes' monument in front of him.

Yu Jin Jiu Cai Rong looked at this scene and said: "It's against the will of heaven."

"Our owner." He hid in the crowd, his expression dull, "So cool! A living person opened a door. This is to record the history of the owner's tomb."

Even Jiu Cairong was stunned.

These scholars are so disgusting.

They built a bunch of bronze statues to recreate the scenes at that time and introduced history to the guests. In fact, they took the opportunity to talk about the dark side of the court.

Killing people with a pen, disgusting people with a mouth, and messing with people without using dirty words, this set of methods is simply murderous and heart-breaking.

It's fine if you just parade them through the streets, but it's normal for them to shout a few words.

We have it in our world too, but this thing in front of us really doesn't exist. It turns out that it is something that can only be played in the world of immortals and heroes.

The Gate of Hell.

It's really insulting to write this on this historical wall!

A scholar vividly tells the history of Xinyizhou City to tourists from various cities.
"Welcome to our Hades Gate."

"I tell you this story about a great hero who stood up for injustice and exposed the dark and ugly truth, not for personal gain."

"That battle was so shocking that the city walls collapsed. The evil and vicious Fang family trembled in fear under the shadow of that person."

"The sky is filled with torrential rain, and the earth is surging with the Styx, the One said at the time."

"That's the sky crying."

"I am His tears, the rain that walks in this world."

"Weep for all the injustices in the world."

The passionate speech filled the entire square with excitement.

Scale gate.

No, Hell Gate.
It has become the most prosperous and lively area among the 3,000 corridors, a change from the previous deserted era.

Who is this mysterious existence?
What does it look like? From what distant era?

He created the River Styx overnight to wash away sins and send people to the afterlife, looking like a knight who stood up for justice.

Xin Yiyun, followed by two officials, quietly came to Linmen. He originally wanted to investigate the situation on the battlefield and find out any tricks or hidden information that the mysterious man might have left behind.

but now
He looked at the historian next to him and was shocked: "Mingmen, what is this?"

Where did my huge Scale Gate go? How did it become such a mess after being rebuilt? He heard that the people were very emotional now, marching everywhere, appealing to the people, and giving speeches, but he didn't expect it to be so exaggerated.
and
Who came up with this exaggerated way of marching and protesting? It's too outrageous!

The historian beside him nodded seriously. "As a historian, I think this way of recording history is very desirable. Nailing it on the wall of shame will allow future generations to come and reflect on it from time to time."

"This magnolia historical wall shouldn't just be three thousand historical monuments that record only our glory. It should also record our past mistakes, allowing future generations to appreciate this part of history!"

The historian's words left Xin Yiyun silent.

One should not remember happiness but not sadness.

Wall of faults?

It seems to make sense and is consistent with the words of historians who recorded history. History should be true.

But he still felt something was wrong.

Historians and censors are departments affiliated with the central government of the imperial court and are directly under the jurisdiction of the sage, not under the management of other local areas.

The main character is an upright and incorruptible person, and is often played by the most stubborn and honest scholar.

"What do you think?" Xin Yiyun looked at the censor next to her.

"I think the Underworld Gate is inappropriate."

The censor replied: "However, the public is very excited at the moment. The entire Linmen is now full of people marching. If we, the court, try to stop them, it will surely arouse public anger and people will think that we are shielding criminals."

"These scholars are the least afraid of death."

"We drove them away, and they directly protested, risking their lives, preferring to die with a good reputation."

Xin Yiyun felt that the professional level of the censor was still very good.

This world is a golden age for scholars, but some scholars are really not afraid of death.

Reputation is more important than life.

In order to become famous, some people even deliberately offend some evil cultivators and demon cultivators, pointing at their noses and cursing at them.

"Then how do you think we should deal with this matter?" Xin Yiyun said.

"I suggest that we make some compromise with them. After all, the fault lies with the court, and they are just seeking justice."

The other party said: "As for the content of the compromise, I think that this Dark Gate is ridiculous. It would be better to change it to Bright Gate so that they can be more restrained."

Xin Yiyun fell silent.

But can I only change my name?

His expression was heavy, and he felt more and more:

This King Xinyi deserves to be humiliated!
There were no such problems before, but now that the saint is no longer there to suppress the world, all kinds of troubles from the founding period have completely erupted.

He thoroughly felt some of the drawbacks.

But it can't be handled at all.

For example, the heyday of scholars led to prosperity, but they would also protest at every turn, just like what happened before him. He had been trying very hard to manage the situation, but as soon as there was a little problem, these scholars would come up with all kinds of tricks to make him mad!
The essence of politics lies in compromise, but they don't understand.

Failure to compromise will lead to greater disasters and more people will suffer.

There are many things to weigh up. For example, he has to make a certain degree of compromise with the existence in those tombs.

This is a defect, can it be changed?

No, if you get the benefits of the tomb, you must bear its side effects.

Even though the Jiusui Dynasty has tried its best to create a perfect system, there are still various drawbacks.

There is no perfect law in this world.

The truly perfect law is man, the saint!
One person's strength and personal bravery suppressed all the legal flaws, big and small, in the entire court.

But now.
Xin Yiyun remained silent.

This is a world of personal bravery. If one person falls, the accumulated drawbacks will erupt completely, the court will become a loose sand, and everyone will fight against each other, which may very likely lead to the fall of a dynasty.

"Call that boy over here, I want to talk to him." He pointed at the excited look above.
