Chapter 977 God is above us
The chaos in Xinghuafang lasted for a long time. The Jinwu Guards who had been waiting for a long time were finally dispatched, and the streets were filled with the messy sound of horse hooves.
Yun Ye squatted in the lobby of the county government office, arranging the clothes and remains of the green bamboo girl sitting cross-legged on the coffin board.
"Miss Luzhu, have you seen it? You have avenged yourself today. From today on, those who bullied you will no longer exist. I hope that the big shots in Chang'an City can also restrain themselves after seeing the power of the people. You must stop harming others easily..."
Yun Ye murmured softly while arranging Miss Luzhu's messy hair.
At this moment, a familiar voice floated into his ears from outside the door.
"You are overthinking this. The dignitaries in Chang'an City dare to deceive even the emperor. What do they mean to ordinary people?"
"This kind of thing will still happen even in thousands of years, let alone this unenlightened era?"
Yun Ye turned his head and looked around, only to see Lin Zhongtian in a white shirt floating over. He chuckled and said, "But if you add Huanghuang's power to the sky, it will be different!"
"Even if these people dare to deceive the people, they would not dare to deceive God even if they think about it."
"Although it is a feudal superstition that there is a god with your head three feet high, it is also a kind of intimidation. Sometimes, it is better for people to be more in awe than to be fearless..."
Yun Ye's eyes moved slightly, and he lowered his voice and said, "Is that why you let me say such things?"
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly, did not answer directly, and instead glanced around.
"Where's Hongcheng?"
"I have already gone back to report to the emperor."
Yun Ye answered, and then continued to ask without giving up: "Brother Tian, how did you do it?"
Lin Zhongtian smiled and said softly: "You have forgotten, I am in control of the real Qimen Dunjia. That night, I set up the Qimen formation around the Dou family's house, using the Qian Palace to gather dark clouds, and the earthquake palace to carry the five thunders. …”
"Stop!" Yun Ye said with a headache, "Can you explain it in a more scientific way?"
Lin Zhongtian thought for a while, nodded and said: "To put it simply, I used the Qimen Formation to affect the world. It not only retained the dark clouds, but also enhanced the Dou family's golden power, so that the thunder only struck this part of the Dou family. Place——The movement of gold attracts thunder, you should understand this, right?”
Yun Ye suddenly understood and nodded immediately.
Lin Zhongtian smiled and said: "In short, in this Qimen formation, I have the final say who is the golden one. Whoever I want the thunder to strike will be struck by it. There is no real will of God."
"If I insist on saying it, my will is God's will, and my heart is God's heart."
"This is also the ultimate dream of the Qimen Warlock, which is to replace the heart of heaven with one's own heart and control the changes in things in the world..."
Yun Ye was very moved when he heard it and couldn't help but ask: "Can I learn it?"
Lin Zhongtian said with a smile: "You can't become fat by eating one bite. You should first practice the Nine Sun Magic Skills I taught you, and then think about other things!"
After saying that, Lin Zhongtian changed the topic and asked softly: "Did Hongcheng ask you about the note?"
Yun Ye shook his head: "No."
Lin Zhongtian said thoughtfully: "That's fine. You and I don't have to quarrel with the emperor about Bai Yujing. However, if you see Li Er again in the future, you will probably be tested by him in this regard."
Yun Ye waved his hand nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, I have been tempted before."
Lin Zhongtian shook his head and said: "It's different this time. We can draw thunder in Xinghuafang, Chang'an, but that doesn't necessarily mean we can't draw thunder in the palace. This is an unspeakable threat to Li Er. If we don't get reasonable I’m afraid you won’t have peace in the future.”
Yun Ye's heart moved and he immediately asked: "Brother, do you have any idea?"
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly and said meaningfully: "I have been in Chang'an for so long, it's time for me to meet this Tian Khan..."
Yun Ye was slightly startled, and just about to continue speaking, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from outside the county government office.
The two turned their heads and saw Dai Zhou, the minister of Dali Temple, walking in wearing a crimson official robe. Behind him were Zuo Kui, the magistrate of Chang'an County, and Dali Temple officials holding shackles.
Seeing this scene, Yun Ye couldn't help but smile.
As the Marquis of Lantian in the Tang Dynasty, the Chang'an County Government was not qualified to arrest Yun Ye.
Even Dali Temple would not have this qualification without the emperor's will.
Nowadays, Dai Zhou and the others are holding shackles, and they are undoubtedly appointed by the emperor. This shows that it is not only the Dou family and the aristocratic families of Chang'an who are frightened by the angry scene of the people, but also the one sitting on the dragon throne, high above them. emperor.
This is undoubtedly good news for Yun Ye, but of course, it is also bad news.
Looking at Dai Zhou with a complicated expression, Yun Ye spoke first: "I was so angry today that I unintentionally caused unrest among the people. I am guilty of an unforgivable crime. Now I surrender to Dali Temple, and I ask that Dali Temple guard me!"
After saying that, Yun Ye raised his arms and waited for the Dali Temple officials to shackle him.
Dai Zhou hesitated for a long time, finally sighed and ordered Yun Ye to be put in shackles and chained.
The so-called shackles refer to two kinds of objects: shackles and locks. When the officials of Dali Temple put the shackles on Yun Ye, Lin Zhongtian did not stop them, but when they were about to put the shackles on Yun Ye, Lin Zhongtian raised his hand to stop them.
"Isn't that necessary?"
Lin Zhongtian looked at Dai Zhou and others and said calmly.
Dai Zhou sighed and said with a wry smile: "Sir, don't be surprised, we are also following orders..."
As he spoke, he looked at the ceiling of the county government office, and the meaning was self-evident.
Lin Zhongtian glanced at him and said calmly: "In that case, I won't embarrass you. If you can't get up the shackles, what will you do?"
Dai Zhou was stunned for a moment and looked at Lin Zhongtian with confusion, as if he didn't understand what he meant.
Lin Zhongtian took a step back, stretched out his hand, and signaled the Dali Temple official to put the shackles on Yun Ye.
The subordinate officer hesitated for a moment, then boldly put the shackle on Yun Ye's neck.
But just as he was fastening the shackles, there was a sudden cracking sound in the wooden board. It broke out of thin air and fell from Yun Ye's neck.
Seeing this scene, Dai Zhou and the officials around him were shocked, and they all looked at Lin Zhongtian in confusion.
They didn't see any movement from Lin Zhongtian. Why did the shackle break on its own?
Facing the suspicious and frightened looks of Dai Zhou and others, Yun Ye looked helpless and couldn't help but glance at Lin Zhongtian.
"As for it?"
"Don't worry, I have my own plan."
Lin Zhongtian condensed his voice into a line, transmitted the sound into the secret, then stretched out his hand and said lightly: "Master Dai, please."
Dai Zhou came back to his senses, gritted his teeth, and waved his hand to the officials around him to escort the shackled Yun Ye away.
Lin Zhongtian stood in the hall, watching Yun Ye leave. Then, under the hesitant gaze of Chang'an County Magistrate Zuo Kui, he took a step forward, left the Chang'an County Government Office, and disappeared into the empty streets.
On the way back to Dali Temple, Yun Ye asked casually: "How is the Dou family?"
Dai Zhou did not dare to neglect, and said quickly: "When the people rushed into Dou's house, the old man of Dou's house was already dead. An appraisal showed that there were no external injuries. He must have been either mad to death or frightened to death."
"The immediate boss of the Dou family, Dou Huaiyi, was beaten to death by the common people. Dou Huai'en, Dou Huaide, the thirteen juniors of the Dou family and a group of guards and minions... were all struck to death by thunder."
When he said the last sentence, Dai Zhou glanced at Yun Ye quietly.
The news that Yun Ye is a descendant of the gods is no longer a secret in Chang'an City. Many neighbors in Chang'an City know this, so it is said in private that the thunder from the sky was caused by Yun Ye's tricks.
Dai Zhou was in charge of the case and naturally heard the news.
He is more aware of Yunhou's supernatural power than ordinary people, so he is more in awe of it.
Yun Ye glanced at him and said calmly: "Master Dai, there is no need to worry. As the saying goes, don't do anything wrong and don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door. If Master Dai is an upright and honest official, why should you be afraid of the gods who hold your head high? "
Dai Zhou was startled for a moment, then he was sweating profusely. He bowed and cupped his hands and said, "Yes... yes... what Marquis Yun said is absolutely true!"
Seeing this scene, Yun Ye raised the corner of his mouth and couldn't help but reveal a smile from the heart.
…
…
In the palace, Li Er was wearing a dragon robe and sitting on a low couch with an irritable expression.
Hong Cheng, the leader of Baiqisi, knelt respectfully in front of him, and the palace people next to him served him tremblingly, fearing that he might accidentally anger Li Er and bring disaster to himself.
Looking at the back of Hong Cheng kneeling on the ground, Li Er frowned tightly.
This time, the dragnet against the Dou family was planned and laid by him. He thought it was foolproof and everything was under control, but who knew that after Yun Ye entered the scene, he actually created two variables for him out of thin air.
One is that the will of the people is as strong as the sky, and the other is that the power of the sky is mighty.
If there was only the former, although Li Er would be frightened, he would also have an understanding. He might say, "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it," and the matter would be over.
But if the latter is added, Li Er's mind will not be able to calm down at all.
"Bai Yujing...Bai Yujing..."
Li Er sat on the short couch and murmured a few words.
After a moment, he waved his hand, signaling Hong Cheng and the palace officials to step back.
Before long, Li Er was the only one left in the palace.
He grabbed the wine bottle on the desk and took a sip of the fine wine produced by the Yun family. Suddenly, he felt an unknown fire in his heart and threw the wine bottle forward.
The wine bottle flew out, but there was no sound of landing. Instead, there was a slightly smiling voice.
"Why is Your Majesty so angry?"
Li Er was startled when he heard this, and immediately his heart was filled with turmoil.
Not to mention the riots among the people in Chang'an today, even on normal quiet days, this palace is guarded by forbidden troops and has many checkpoints.
What's more, Hong Cheng, the leader of Baiqisi, had just exited the palace. Under such circumstances, someone unexpectedly sneaked into the palace. How could this not make Li Er shocked and angry!
But no matter how turbulent his heart was, Li Er remained calm on the outside.
He turned his head slightly, glanced at the handsome young man in white clothes in the palace, and said in a calm tone: "Who are you? How dare you break into the palace without permission? Do you know what your crime should be?!"
