Chapter 297 Chapter 297

Ling Haotian drank the wine and said: Closer to home, when do you plan to enter the palace?Zhao Guan put away his smiling face, pondered for a while, and said: I am waiting for an opportunity. Ling Haotian looked serious, and said: Be careful.Do you remember Wu Zun?Zhao Guandao: Of course I remember, why? Ling Haotian said: When we were both thrown into the sea by him, he said something to Bao'an.He said that King Shura practiced the same martial arts as him. He was usually sick and sick, but when he performed martial arts, he looked crazy and powerful.You must not act alone, even if you and I join forces, we may not be able to deal with King Shura.

Zhao Guan's face changed slightly, and he said: Is her martial arts really so high?Ling Haotian said: No one has seen her make a move.But if her attack has half the power of Wu Zun, I can't resist it. Zhao Guan nodded. He knew that Ling Haotian's martial arts were far superior to his own. If he couldn't resist, he would be no match for him.He pondered for a while and asked: What are your plans? Ling Haotian said: Sooner or later, I will have to fight King Shura to the death.If she doesn't come to me, I have to go to her.Zhao Guandao: Do ​​you have the certainty of defeating her?

Ling Haotian shook his head slowly, and said: I came all the way from Hushan, and I have devoted myself to creating a new set of martial arts, which can relieve the opponent's powerful palm without being affected.Give me another half a month, and I should be able to come up with a feasible solution.Although he may not be able to restrain her, he should be able to hold on for a long time, unlike when he met Wu Zun on the boat, he would not even have the chance to fight back. Zhao Guan nodded and said: "Think about it slowly, I won't go to the palace to find her anytime soon."

Unexpectedly, on the night when Zhao Guan and Ling Haotian had a chat over wine, news came from the Baihuamen that King Shura sent an order for Qingzhu to enter the palace the next day.Zhao Guan knew that this was an excellent opportunity, so he immediately called the Baihuamen to discuss countermeasures.All the girls asked to dress up as green bamboos and enter the palace to assassinate King Shura and avenge the murdered disciples. Zhao Guan turned his back to the girls, he could hear everyone's agitation, pleading for orders, suddenly he turned around and said: "You all can't go."He looked at the girls in awe, and said quietly: I want to do it myself.

Bai Lan'er, Zi Jiang, Shu Shu and others looked at him, but seeing his calm expression, they couldn't hide the spark of anger in their eyes.Zhao Guan closed his eyes, and the scene of dead bodies all over the ground in Qingfeng Pavilion and the scene of his mother lying on the ground seemed to appear in front of his eyes again.Ten years have passed, and he has never forgotten this deep hatred, and he wants to avenge it with his own hands. Rumor has it that the most terrifying person in the arena today is Zhao Guan.He only needs one word, and tens of thousands of members of the Green Gang will serve him; one command, and the members of Baihuamen, who are discolored by everyone in the underworld, will assassinate him.He himself is proficient in poisonous arts, skillful and disguised, his martial arts are strange and inexplicable, and he acts decisively and ruthlessly.If such a person wants to deal with anyone, he will not need to take action himself.But Zhao Guan is only twenty-three years old, he is not afraid of death, in order to kill his mother and enemy, he does not hesitate to take risks himself.

Seeing Zhao Guan's expression, Bai Lan'er felt very uneasy, and asked: Third Young Hero Ling is also in the capital, is the sect master inviting him to enter the palace together? Zhao Guan pondered for a while, then slowly shook his head, and asked: "Xiao San'er just made love with his sweetheart, I can't let him take this big risk with me."All the girls showed signs of worry and wanted to persuade them.Zhao Guan turned around and walked towards the door, he turned back and said: After I enter the palace, if there is no news for three days, then something has happened.You can tell Xiao San'er to know, and ask him to leave quickly, and don't take revenge for me.The disciples were all startled when they heard this, they looked at Jingyou and knew that he was going alone this time because he was determined to die.

In the early morning of the next day, Zhao Guan dressed up as a green bamboo and entered the palace under the guidance of King Shura's men.He and Qing Zhu disguised themselves as two of the three masters of the scimitar and sneaked into the palace. The world is unpredictable, but how could he know that when he sneaked into the palace again, he was disguised as Qing Zhu. But it was said that Zhao Guan followed a maid to the Chaoning Palace in the northeast corner of the palace, and the maid left by herself.Zhao Guan stood there, but he saw a garden in front of Chaoning Palace, the flowers and plants were all withered, apparently it was not taken care of.The buildings of Chaoning Palace look a little old, but they still cannot conceal the magnificence of gold carvings and jade carvings.After he knew that Yan Song had gained power, the daughter-in-law's status in the palace was greatly improved, from a daughter of a maid who was ignored to a hot princess.This princess should only be in her early forties at this time, but this Chaoning Palace exudes an unspeakable sense of oldness and decadence. Is it the peeling and faded glazed roof tiles?Is it the lingering smell of medicine?Or the withered, lifeless dead branches and leaves in front of the palace?

Zhao Guan took a deep breath, seeing no one in the palace, he felt apprehensive, and thought to himself: Qingzhu is familiar with this place, so she won't stand here in a daze.Where should I go?Immediately, he strolled into a side room, but saw two old maids sitting in the room, dozing over a pot of medicine stewed on the fire.When the two heard Zhao Guan dressed as Qingzhu come in, they opened their eyes and nodded in greeting, but did not get up.Zhao Guanwen heard the pungent smell coming from the medicine jar, he vaguely guessed that it was some medicine for invigorating Qi and strengthening the body, and thought: If King Shura's body is really so weak, how can he perform advanced martial arts?

When Zhao Guan was thinking about it, he saw a young court lady walking in, her face was surprisingly ugly, she raised her head to see Zhao Guan, grinned, and said: "Sister Qingzhu, you are back." Zhao Guan nodded, but saw the maid opened the lid of a medicine jar, took out a bowl of decoction from it, put it in a bamboo basket, and said: "Master, it's time to take medicine again."After finishing speaking, he curled his lips and looked at Zhao Guandao: Tell me, living alone, you have to take medicine every half an hour, is this life easy? Zhao Guan didn't know how to respond, so he sighed and didn't answer.

The ugly maid picked up the bamboo basket and walked out, Zhao Guan followed her and asked: How is the master?Is Mr. Sikong here?The ugly palace lady said: How are you, master?good what good?Still the same?Of course, Mr. Sikong is here, and he is behind to help the master get the child's brain.Hearing this, Zhao Guan couldn't help but feel horrified, he collected himself and said: Master wants me to come see her.The ugly court lady said: She is in the Hall of Vendetta, and Governor Hong is also there. Zhao Guan thought to himself: What vendetta hall?Jack asked: Is she practicing? The ugly maid seemed a little surprised, she stopped and looked back at him, and said: When is the master not practicing?She has to kill all the enemies before she is willing to give up, otherwise why is the place where martial arts is practiced called the Vendetta Hall?

Zhao Guanting said that the maid was very young, but her tone was extremely sarcastic, so she didn't say much, just followed her silently, and came to a small courtyard behind Chaoning Palace.But there are two-person-high stone walls beside the courtyard, and in the middle of the courtyard is a strangely shaped stone house with a square body and a round roof.The ugly maid came to the side of the stone house, knelt down, and passed the medicine bowl in through a hole in the corner of the room.She stood up, clapped her hands, and said: "The master may not come out when, just wait here."After speaking, he turned and went away. Zhao Guan looked at the back of the court lady, although he only spent a moment with her, and after speaking seven or eight words, he could already feel the strong resentment and dissatisfaction in her heart.He took a breath and looked up at the surrounding environment, but saw that the high walls around the stone house blocked the sunlight, and the courtyard was extremely dark, with a faint musty smell of decay.He quietly walked around the stone house, but saw a stone door on the east side of the house, and a row of stone windows near the roof on the other three sides.Zhao Guan listened quietly outside the house for a while, then came to the farthest point from the courtyard entrance on the north side, and climbed up gently. Just approaching the window, I heard the sound of heavy breathing from the stone house, like the panting of a wounded beast.Zhao Guan felt stunned, and looked towards the stone window, but saw a person in the room sitting cross-legged facing south, with his back to him, long hair hanging behind his back, and eight people kneeling around him, all of them bowed their heads and lowered their hands, motionless, Like a group of wooden people.There is a huge shrine on the south side of the house, and a large picture is hung on the wall behind the shrine. In the picture, a statue of a fiery red god is painted, with a hideous face and various unknown weapons in his hands.On the altar is a life-size statue of a god, sitting cross-legged, with a fair and handsome face, five long beards, and a face full of self-satisfaction. Zhao Guan looked carefully at the person in the middle of the room again, but saw that her body was shaking constantly, her clothes were soaked, and she could vaguely see that her body under the clothes was very thin, and her muscles were twitching uncontrollably.Zhao Guan recalled that when he saw King Shura last time, she was never so skinny, and thought: Is this really her?
