"Find those who are in conflict with each other, and look for things that are mutually supportive." The white-eyed girl kept facing Shen Tang, with convincing power in her voice. She said earnestly, "The common people know that they cannot win the trust of the king, but the matter is very important. Please be careful, Lord."
The grandfather of the white-eyed girl couldn’t help but interject.
“The king had better believe in her.”
This disciple of mine does have some evil traits in him.
Shen Tang continued to ask: "Where are the people who are in conflict with each other? Where are the things that are in conflict with each other? Since you can say this, it is not without purpose. After all, the price of fooling the leader of a country is not something you can afford. , be careful of being tricked and killed."
The white-eyed girl was not frightened by her words.
There was no murderous intention in Shen Tang's words, and there was a faint smile, like the sister next door teasing a naughty boy. The girl with white eyes said: "The common people are still very shallow and can't see much, but you can be sure that there are more than two people who can defeat each other, and the creature that is compatible with you is already near you."
As soon as these words came out, Shen Tang fell into silence.
It’s not that the white-eyed girl is talking nonsense, it’s that what she said is actually somewhat correct. The way of scribes like Qi Yuanliang is not a secret internally, but it is a secret among secrets externally. It is impossible for these grandsons to know that Shen Tang has been controlled by them all these years? Especially Xun Zhen, who tried to control her fortune, but couldn't do anything to repay her debt.
The debt is not Xun Zhen’s fault.
It's her fault, she's too poor and too weak.
People who are in conflict with each other can barely match up with these scammers like Xun Zhenkang, but what is this mutually reinforcing thing? Shen Tang went straight to the point and asked the other party: "How do I find the mutually reinforcing thing? Is there any way?"
The white-eyed girl shook her head: "I can't."
“Then what’s the difference between saying this and not saying it?”
"Why don't you ask who are the people who are hindering you? These people can be found by ordinary people!" The white-eyed girl pursed her lips tightly, but she felt a little uneasy in her heart. The development of the matter was different from her deduction.
"The five virtues are always there, week after week. Everything in the world is divided into yin and yang, and the five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. The person who suppresses me may not be the person who pushes me to the top. It depends on how the king uses people. Don't mention this matter again." Shen Tang interrupted and replied. The white-eyed girl wanted to say something. The grandfather next to the girl was already sweating profusely after hearing this. He lay on the ground shivering and pulled the girl's sleeves from time to time.
He has traveled extensively over the years and has seen a lot.
Although she has never interacted with high-ranking officials, she still knows how to read people's hearts. The implication of Shen Tang's words is that she knows who the so-called "conflicts" are, and most of them are her confidants. Lord Shen doesn't care about his apprentice's recklessness, so will his confidants?
It’s really killing me.
At first I just wanted to be a small official, but now it’s over.
The white-eyed girl opened her mouth: "But..."
How can someone know that there is someone around them who is trying to harm them, but they still ignore it? This king clearly has the aura of an emperor, and his aura is the strongest she has ever seen. Shouldn't he cherish his life more? If we were defeated by these villains halfway, wouldn't it be a waste of time?
However, Shen Tang has forcibly changed the topic.
“From the tone of your grandson’s words, do you sound like someone from the Kang state?”
“She is a grassroots apprentice, from the southwest Lu country.” Worried that the apprentice would say the wrong thing again, the older one took the initiative to take over the topic.
Shen Tang thought about where the Lu State was and asked about the doubts in his mind: "If I remember correctly, the situation in the Lu State has been pretty good these years. Why did you masters and disciples take such a risk and go to the Kang State?"
You must know that the current world is very unstable and transportation is inconvenient. As long as the common people are not forced to survive and have something to eat, they will not leave their homeland easily. Because on the way to escape, you will encounter bandits and face ferocious beasts and poisonous insects.
There is no stable supply of food and water…
The chance of survival if you escape is very small.
The man was still trying to find an excuse to excuse himself, but unexpectedly, the disciple next to him opened his mouth and told the truth: "Because of the Eternal Life Cult."
The white-eyed girl added: "The Eternal Life Cult excludes dissidents."
“Eternal Life Religion?”
The white-eyed girl nodded: "Yes."
Their masters and apprentices were forced to go far away.
When the man saw this, he also broke the jar and said: "To be honest, this disciple of Cao Min was born with different eyes and five teeth. He can see Yin and Yang and can tell good and bad luck. The day before her mother gave birth to her, she dreamed of two ghosts, one black and one white. Passing through the house, he didn’t understand human language until he was six years old..."
Generally speaking, the birth experience of the girl with white pupils is very interesting.
He was born with a pair of white pupils and five teeth in his mouth. He could not speak before he was six years old. Her parents were scared and decided to sell her, but the man, who made a living as an acrobat, unexpectedly bought her. On the day when the man took the white-eyed girl away, she suddenly spoke, pointing at her father and saying that he would be cut in half and die in three days.
Three days later, while the man was climbing the cliff to collect herbs, the hemp rope broke. He fell off the cliff and was struck by an axe-shaped stone in the middle of his waist.
After that, the news spread.
The man simply stopped doing acrobatics. His acrobatics themselves were just tricks of pretending to be magical and deceiving, and he focused on leading the girl to tell fortunes. Others want to pay for the fortune teller.
Life should have been prosperous, but they were unlucky. In the Southwest Continent, everyone from dignitaries to common people worshiped the Eternal Life Sect, and all other sects were cultists. I used to be able to turn a blind eye, but the past two years have been like crazy.
If you catch a cultist, you will be put in jail.
It becomes increasingly difficult for the master and apprentice to survive and they have to hide in Tibet.
Finally, he was cruel and simply left the country of Lu.
I suffered a lot along the way.
The white-eyed girl plans to cheat and find someone with the aura of an emperor. If she can gain the trust of the other person, it will be the best, and she will enjoy endless glory and wealth. If not, their master and apprentice can also make a living under the other person. With good skills, you won’t have to worry about no one coming to your door.
I just didn’t expect that the king would not act according to common sense.
She doesn’t care about the people around her who are in conflict with her.
Shen Tang listened briefly and said: "I see, but I have a question, how did you know that your father would die from being cut in half?"
In this world where literary minds, bravery, and words and spirits rule, the ability and experience of the white-eyed girl are not out of the ordinary. Jiang Sheng's scribe's way can also be used as a magic stick skill. However, his skills as a scribe were also acquired accidentally after condensing his literary heart, but the white-eyed girl's abilities began to emerge when she was six years old.
This goes against common sense.
The white-eyed girl was silent for a while, and slowly revealed the truth under the horrifying eyes of her master: "The hemp rope that my father used to collect medicine had been tampered with by my mother a long time ago. There are rocks under the cliff where he often collects medicine. , fell from that height and was undoubtedly cut in half. What I said was just to cover up my mother-in-law and return her favor."
She was not mute until she was six years old before she could speak.
I have been able to speak for a long time, but there is no need to speak.
Shen Tang was a little surprised by this answer. She didn't ask why the white-eyed girl didn't remind her biological father or why she helped her mother cover it up: "So, your mother said she dreamed of two ghosts, one black and one white, before she gave birth to you. In fact, it was because Were you born with teeth?”
Making up such lies to shirk responsibility.
After all, she gave birth to a daughter who was born with five teeth and different eyes. She tried to fool her, not to mention that the child would be killed, and the mother would be burned as a monster.
It is very reasonable to fabricate two ghosts into a dream.
The white-eyed girl nodded and emphasized softly: "Yes, but my prophecy is accurate. I'm really not pretending to be a ghost."
She seems to have a natural ability to deceive people.
Outsiders think she is blind, but in fact she can see. There is basically no risk in saying ambiguous and flattering words when telling people's fortunes. A few years ago, her fake magic stick turned into a real magic stick. She can really determine good or bad luck for people.
After the white-eyed girl said this, her master looked like he had seen a ghost, his expression changed again and again, and he couldn't say anything else for a long time.
Obviously, he was also kept in the dark.
The white-eyed girl said: "I know a little bit."
Shen Tang clapped his hands: "Very good, just wait for the news."
She was not sure whether the girl's ability came from the scribe's way or another special system. Shen Tang adhered to one principle - no matter whether the cat is black or white, any cat that can catch mice is a good cat! A girl with white eyes can determine good or bad luck, life or death, what a great talent for the Taishi Bureau?
You also know a little bit about the art of wind, cloud and climate, which is even better!
To a certain extent, it can be regarded as Qin Li 2.0.
You were born to eat this bowl of rice!
The white-eyed girl did not expect this outcome. She was so shocked that she forgot to thank her. It was not until the teacher pressed the back of her neck and pushed her down that she came back to thank her. Before leaving, she hesitated and said: "There is one more thing that the king should probably know..."
Shen Tang’s eyes signaled the white-eyed girl to continue.
The white-eyed girl said: "Our master and disciple came from the Kang State who borrowed the road from the Gao State, and met the Eternal Life Cult to worship them in the Gao State."
The master and his disciples lingered in Gaowangdu for a long time.
As a commoner, she naturally did not have the opportunity to see the king of Gao Kingdom. She could only judge the intensity of the dragon's aura through the gas clouds above the palace. This method had a huge error, and she was hesitant. It happened that there was a national funeral in Gao State, and Wu Xian carried the coffin to the queen's mausoleum for burial. The white-eyed girl saw Wu Xian from a distance. This person also has a faint aura of a dragon, just like the kings he has seen before.
What attracted her attention the most was the people around Wu Xian.
There are offerings from the Eternal Life Cult inside.
She has seen this offering before.
The white-eyed girl said softly: "Be careful of this person."
Shen Tang asked: "Is this person very strong?"
The white-eyed girl shook her head: "I don't know whether he is strong or weak, but the aura around him is weird, the yin and yang are reversed, and the world is reversed... In short, I must kill this person if I have the chance to avoid endless troubles."
Shen Tang nodded in agreement: "I will pay attention to what you say."
The master and apprentice were arranged in a small courtyard.
Small but complete.
The master nodded and bowed to send away the messenger who had brought them. After watching the messenger go away, he covered his neck in fear and said, "You are such a desperate girl. Why do you dare to say anything?"
The girl with white eyes: "Qingyun Road is at your feet."
It was worth risking her life.
The master muttered, but didn't say much.
After taking a sip of ice cold tea, the temperature of his brain dropped a lot, and he couldn't sit still and said: "I always feel that Lord Shen is not easy to deceive. We have raised you for so many years, and this is the first time we know that you are six years old. He was lying that year, but she saw through it at a glance! Tsk tsk, what a smart and wise woman she is, no wonder she can become the head of the country... No, how about we run away? "
If they are caught by the other party, they are members of the Eternal Life Cult...
How can you tell the lie later?
The Eternal Life Cult is large and bloated. Their masters and disciples joined when they couldn't defeat it, but later ran away due to some reasons.
Those things I just told Shen Tang...
Nine truths and one falsehood.
The white-eyed girl said softly: "Is there a possibility that it's not that the king is too smart, but that you, Master, are too stupid?"
man:"…"
The white-eyed girl: "Don't worry, nothing will happen."
It doesn't matter that they didn't hide much. The most important information has been told to Lord Shen. Even if the lie is exposed in the future, it will be worth the credit. The man sighed and nodded, reluctantly put his heart back in his stomach, and managed to get a good sleep.
The second day.
Shen Tang left for the camp before dawn.
She has investigated the battles in this area in the past hundred years, and after weighing the pros and cons, she decided to take the initiative in the battle with the Gao Kingdom and gain the initiative. It would be best to set the battlefield within the Gao Kingdom. The number and strength of the heroic spirits summoned by the border barrier depend on the number of people killed on this battlefield. The more battles there are, the more people are killed, and the more obsessions there are during life, and the easier it is to be affected by the border barrier and become a heroic spirit to protect the safety of the border barrier.
There were not many border battles between Gao and Kang.
Whether it's Shen Tang's attack or Wu Xian's attack, the army of heroic spirits summoned by the border barrier is not many. It would be good to have three to five hundred heroic spirits to respond. Unlike the battlefield in the Northern Desert, heroic spirits appeared in tens of thousands, and if a group of them were defeated, a group of them could still emerge.
In this case, the defensive pressure is heavy.
Shen Tang was sitting in the tent waiting for others, thinking in his mind.
After a while, the tent curtain was lifted, and the light from outside fell in. Shen Tang raised his head and looked at Gu Chi's slightly haggard face, and stood up suddenly: "Why are you still so weak at Wangchao?"
Didn’t you say that you are almost done recovering from your injuries?
Shen Tang held his wrist, which was cold.
Gu Chi smiled and narrowed his eyes: "My lord, please be patient. The pond is already great. It's just that the weather has turned cold recently, and my complexion looks worse..."
Shen Tang looked at him and sighed: "I don't know when your body will be healed. I remember that there are two fine tiger skins over there in the warehouse to make cloaks for you."
Gu Chi’s eyes lit up and he bowed and thanked him.
Shen Tang helped him up.
With my sharp eyes, I saw red marks on the collar of his neck.
“What’s wrong with your neck?”
Gu Chi’s expression didn’t change: “It must have been an insect bite.”
There are also many poisonous insects near the camp.
Shen Tang was not suspicious: "I'll ask you to get some anti-worm medicine bags for you later. Hang a few more in the tent. Your Qi and blood are already bad. If you let the bugs **** you a few more times, how can you survive?"
Gu Chi responded one by one with a smile.
Shen Tang smelled another whiff of sandalwood on the tip of his nose.
Not quite sure, I smelled it again.
“Shaoxuan has been here?”
Gu Chi said: "General Bai is reorganizing his troops."
Shen Tang murmured: "That's weird."
How could she smell Bai Su's usual fragrance?
This incense was prepared by Shen Zhi himself. It is said that it is made from seven or eight kinds of precious wood spices and is specially made for Bai Su.
︿(￣︶￣)︿
The skills enshrined by the Immortal Cult are quite special, and this is probably the only time in the whole story that Tangmei is forced to play support, hehe.
