There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind; the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
I'm afraid this sentence has been used too much.
"Have you ever heard of the story of the mantis stalking the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it?"
An had only kept the question a secret, but when Qiu realized how fast the man was running, he was naturally speechless. There was nothing he could do; since His Majesty had already spoken, he had nothing to say.
If you say retreat, you retreat naturally.
After all, Your Majesty is the greatest in the world.
"Why, do you have any more surprises?"
"Surprise, big surprise."
"What a surprise."
He was naturally curious about what surprise An had just mentioned.
What a surprise.
However, when asked this question, the other party didn't say a word. Even when asked what the surprise was, the other party just shook his head and said that the secret cannot be revealed.
“…”
This nagging attitude almost made Qiu speechless. Forget it, he didn't know what to say in the end, so he followed the emperor's instructions, took the documents on the table and went to the prison to arrest people.
"Resolve it secretly and don't leave any traces, otherwise it will be difficult to track subsequent activities."
Zhao Xin just chuckled and gave the instructions. The group of people also took the order and handled themselves very well, intending that he would be able to successfully deal with any emergency that occurred.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I will definitely handle this matter thoroughly and completely!"
"That would be best."
Then the two of them retreated.
As for what the two of them said outside, I heard every word of it, and naturally there was no need for me to argue about it.
"Your Majesty...these people seemed to be talking about you just now."
He was standing in the outer hall, which was a bit far from the main gate, so the situation outside didn't sound real to him, so he asked tentatively.
"Well, what's wrong?"
?
This shouldn't be the case. You shouldn't say this anyway.
What do you mean what happened.
"Your Majesty, those people are talking about you at the door."
"Then, if there's nothing else, clean up the bloodstains outside. If it's a little messy, you should know my style."
If I get angry, I'll twist your head off.
“Yes, yes, yes…”
Oh my god! Xiao Chenzi wiped his head. He didn't expect that instead of complaining, he ended up getting himself covered in a foul smell.
It's frustrating.
If I had known this, I wouldn't have spoken so casually.
"Then Your Majesty, you want to..."
"Call that unknown Dongfang over here and ask him what I have to say. As for the so-called cleansing work, don't do it for now. Call this person over and do it later."
If this ungrateful Dongfang doesn't know what's good for him, then there will be one more person to clean up the door.
I have never been a good person.
Of course, Xiao Chenzi naturally did not miss the gleam in the emperor's eyes, and naturally understood what the emperor was going to do, so he was extremely excited and went directly to invite people over.
As long as he called the person over, if that person didn't seize the opportunity, he could just ask for help to get rid of him.
Good.
"Your Majesty, what do you want from me?"
Seeing that the man was already dressed neatly, with a sword pinned to his side, and the armor seemed to be shining in the light, he looked really majestic.
“You are…”
"If Your Majesty hadn't sent me, I would have left the city by now. If nothing else had happened at this time, I'm afraid our Tiandi Sect would have withdrawn."
"What on earth are you looking at in this city?"
I don’t know why Dongfang was slightly hesitant.
However, after hesitating for a while, he told the truth. After all, he had been investigating for such a long time, but in the end, no so-called truth came out.
I'm too lazy to explore it myself, so...let it be what it is.
"What's wrong."
"I heard there's a treasure chest inside, filled with treasures from heaven and earth. If I could get this, I'm afraid I'd also indirectly gain luck and wealth, and the merits I'd gain later would be immeasurable."
"superstitious?"
"Your Majesty, you really can't say that. It's clearly stated in the book. Look at this book. It says there must be a secret treasure in the desert."
"There's a large, unclaimed wasteland in Dongwu. It was eventually named the Black Wasteland by various emperors. If you're interested, go explore it."
If you have no interest, forget it.
"What's in there?"
"I don't know, but I heard that those who went in never came out."
It is probably much more terrifying than the small desert in Daqin.
That place is a well-known wasteland, but this so-called well-known thing is popular among the emperor or the aristocratic circles. Generally speaking, those who know about this place have a lot of say in it.
Naturally, there are guards next to that place.
After all, it's normal for such a large piece of land to be explored for no reason. However, this exploration is just an exploration. If something really happens inside, it will be a big deal.
This place was unattended before.
Suddenly one day something happened.
He also took out the letters sent by their group, opened them and looked at them, then handed them to Dongfang who was opposite him.
I don’t know why Dongfang felt suffocated after just one look.
Look at the statistics above, they are not human at all. Over 10,000 people disappeared in one year. They never came back after entering. They included large armies and unknown expedition teams.
Anyway, once you go in, there will be no fate at all coming out.
As long as you enter, don't think about coming out, or you will die in there.
And there is also a very scary statistic at the same time.
Three years later, tens of thousands of people were infected and entered the desert, and no one was seen since then. It was said that it was as if they had disappeared from the world.
At the end, I added a special sentence.
Please close that place.
And it’s a joint name.
It is enough to show how terrible that place is.
"Are you interested?"
"We... this is a business that will lead to our own death."
"As long as you pay more, you have more men than willing to die anyway, so why not just give them the money and let them go?"
Although this is true, you can't really do it.
If this thing comes out...
Not very good.
"Then I have also told you, you have read the letter in your hand, since you have no interest, then you can leave."
However, he still stuck to his belief that as long as there was a treasure in the desert, there would definitely be one. And at the moment, it seemed that the treasure in the desert of Daqin was the most certain one.
He had encountered such an opportunity before, but he didn't get the money because he failed to seize it.
