Chapter 3696 Target
Tang Shi returned to the Holy Academy and immediately went to see the dean. The dean was very fond of Tang Shi because Tang Shi was the most outstanding person in the Tang family. One, so the dean immediately summoned Tang Shi.
When Tang Shi arrived at the dean's room, he immediately saluted the dean and said, "I have met my ancestor, my great-great-grandson Tang Shi, and I kowtow to you."
The dean said with a smile: "Okay, Xiaoshi, master, you don't have to be so polite. Sit down. I heard you went to the Ecstasy City State this time. How was it? What can you tell?"
Tang Shi said in a deep voice. :"old Zu, I was just about to tell you about this. After we arrived at the Ecstasy City-State, we were watched by them all the time. There was no chance to act alone. Also, people were leading us everywhere. Visiting, but there were people watching the whole process, and nothing could be found at all, but I think Tang Fei’s death has nothing to do with the Ecstasy City-State.”
When the dean heard what Tang Shi said, he was stunned. He looked at Tang Shi and said, "Oh? Why did you say that?"
Tang Shi said in a deep voice: "Ancestor, this is what my grandson thinks. , although the Ecstasy City State has never been too respectful to our Holy Court, except for the conflict with the Wen family and the Dongfang family, it seems that they have never directly conflicted with us, and the reason why they deal with the Wen family and the Dongfang family is It was also because the Wen family wanted to deal with them, and the Holy Court asked Tian He When Cao Cao went to the secret realm, Tian Hecao also went and died in the secret realm. From this point, it can be seen that they do not want to directly conflict with the Holy Academy."
The dean frowned. Said: "But before they didn't let me What happened to Xiao Fei when he entered the Confused City? Didn’t he already show strong hostility towards the Holy Court? "
Tang Shi said solemnly: "It is precisely because the Confused City did not let Xiao Fei. Unless they entered the ecstasy city-state, so I just don’t think they are the murderers of Xiao Fei. If they don’t let Xiao Fei enter the Ecstasy City, they have already started a conflict with Xiao Fei. At this time, Xiao Fei is dead. Even if they are not the primary target of suspicion, they are certainly They will be suspected by us, so it is impossible for them to kill them at this entrance. This will not benefit them at all. As for saying that they are hostile to our Holy Court, in fact, this should have something to do with Tian Kongcao. It seems that the city-state is not as high as Duanhe. It is possible for Tianhecao to reach the Duanhe level. Apart from Tianhecao, the only master who can use it in the city-state of Ecstasy is their city lord. But now Tianhecao has failed because of us. relationship with the Holy Academy, so he died in If we go to the secret realm, they will naturally not have any good impressions of us."
The dean frowned and said, "What do you mean? Do you think our Holy Academy wants to have good relations with the city of Ecstasy? ”
Tang Shi smiled bitterly and said: "Ancestor misunderstood. It is impossible for our Holy Court to have good relations with the city-state of Ecstasy, and there is no chance. What I mean is that if our Holy Court wants to deal with the city-state here in the Spiritual Weapon World, If so, it’s best not to choose the Ecstasy city-state as the first target, because in that case, we’re afraid we’ll suffer a big loss.”
He is doing this. The words attracted the attention of the dean. The dean looked at Tang Shi and said: "Oh, why do you say that? Are there any masters in the city of Ecstasy?"
Tang Shi shook his head and said: "Masters There may not be one in the Ecstasy City-State, but the strength of the Ecstasy City-State cannot be underestimated. The most important thing is the general power of the Ecstasy City-State. The common people support Zhao Hai very much. If we want to deal with the city-state of Vertigo, we will definitely be opposed by all ordinary people in the city-state of Vertigo. They will fully support Zhao Hai in starting a war with us, which is very detrimental to us. "< br>
The dean was stunned, then he looked at Tang Shi in confusion and said: "Oh? Is there such a thing? Why are those civilians Why do you support Zhao Hai so much?"
Tang Shi told the dean in great detail what he saw and heard in the city of Ecstasy. After Tang Shi finished speaking, the dean looked at Tang Shi and said : "Xiao Shi, are you telling the truth? Is this really the case in the City of Ecstasy? Didn't they put on a show to deceive you?"
Tang Shi shook his head and said: "Absolutely impossible. When I visited various cities in the Ecstasy City-State, I also paid special attention to the alleys that few people walked on, but the situation in the alleys was the same as the streets outside. It is very clean, and there are many various shops in the city-state of Ecstasy. If the people there are not living well, , it is absolutely impossible to have so many shops, so I believe that what I saw is the true situation of the city of Ecstasy."
The dean took a breath and slowly closed his eyes. After a while, he said in a deep voice: "From this point of view, now is indeed not the best time to deal with the Ecstasy City-State. This time you go to Ecstasy City-State. Can we see Zhao Hai there?"
Tang Shi shook his head and said: "No, I heard that Zhao Hai is in retreat. The reason why Shi Zhui and the others are monitoring us is because Zhao Hai gave them orders. "
The dean said solemnly: "It seems that we can't rush to deal with Zhao Hai now. The state still has some resentment towards our Holy Court. If we deal with Zhao Hai at this time, it may cause dissatisfaction among all the city-states." Tang Shi looked at the dean and said solemnly: "Ancestor, I don't think those city-states are against us now. We are not satisfied with it being so simple, but all the city-states are hostile to us.”
When the dean heard this, he looked at Tang Shi with some confusion and said: "Are they all hostile to us? That's right. If they were not hostile to us, they would not suppress the families we support. It seems that our previous Things have gone a bit too far, please pay more attention in the future That's it. Okay, Xiao Shi, you can go back. I already know about the matter in the city of Ecstasy, so you don't have to worry." Tang Shi knew from the look on the dean's face that he didn't want to hear what he had to say. He had no choice but to stand up, salute to the dean, then turn around and leave.
Tang Shi left the dean's room, let out a long breath, and walked towards his home. In fact, he still had something to say to the dean today. He thought that the city-states in the spiritual army world were now The antipathy towards the Holy Academy has reached a certain level, and the situation is much more serious than the dean imagined.
However, Tang Shi really didn’t take this matter to heart. In his opinion, although the city-states are somewhat dissatisfied with the Holy Court, they still want those city-states to go to war with the Holy Court. I don't have the guts.
However, Tang Shi is one of the few sober people in the Holy Court when it comes to dealing with the city-state of Ecstasy, because he knows very well that now is definitely not the best time to attack the city-state of Ecstasy, because they When attacking the city-state of Vertigo, they not only have to face the dissatisfaction of everyone in the city-state of Vertigo, but they also have to face the pressure of the secret realm.
Although the Secret Realm comes from the Holy Court, it is relatively independent. However, the elders in the Secret Realm are relatively close to the Holy Court, and the Secret Realm needs the support of the Holy Court, so the Secret Realm will have The Holy Court is so polite that it even helps the Yin people in the Holy Court.
But at the same time, it is impossible for the Secret Realm to completely listen to the Holy Court. If the Holy Court goes too far, the people in the Secret Realm will not buy it. Just like if the Holy Court wants to go to war with the city-state of Ecstasy, The people in the secret realm will definitely stop it, because no one in the secret realm has made trouble on a large scale until now. Son, the main reason is because the secret realm can guarantee the safety of those people's families. They work hard there just to provide a talisman for their families. Once the secret realm fails to honor this agreement and something happens to their families, then Someone will know what will happen in the secret realm.
It is precisely because of these reasons that Tang Zao believes that the city-state of Ecstasy must not be touched now. It is best to wait until ten years later. By then, the secret realm will no longer protect the city-state. Action is the best.
The reason why Tang Shi is afraid that the Holy Court will deal with the Ecstasy City-State now is well-founded. Now the Holy Court really wants to deal with the Ecstasy City-State, because in the eyes of many people in the Holy Court, the Holy Court The reason why relations with various city-states are so tense is all because of the Ecstasy City-State. As long as they take care of the Ecstasy City-State and then think of ways to teach other city-states a lesson, no one will dare to challenge the Holy Court. Challenge.
The reason why Tang Shi went to Ecstasy City-State to investigate Tang Fei's affairs this time was for a purpose. He actually went to stir up trouble. He just wanted to make Ecstasy City-State take the initiative to talk to the Holy Academy. If we start a war, it will be difficult to take action in the secret realm.
The secret realm promises to protect the safety of those who enter the secret realm and their families, but if their family members take the initiative to provoke the enemy, the people in the secret realm will only mediate, and they will not take action easily. , otherwise wouldn’t it be taken advantage of?
Tang Shi's initial idea was actually very simple, which was to go to the Ecstasy City-State to find problems. It would be best to let the people in the Ecstasy City-State take the initiative to attack them. In this way, they would be able to deal with the Ecstasy City-State. Now that they have an excuse, even if they can't destroy the city-state of Ecstasy, they can still We need to teach them a lesson. Even if the people in the secret realm know about it, it won’t be a big deal. After the people in the secret realm have finished mediating, they will also have taught the Ecstasy city-state a lesson. This will be enough to scare the monkeys. , let other city-states see, this is the consequences of offending the Holy Court.
But after seeing the situation in Vertigo City-State, Tang Shi believes that there is a problem with the target chosen by the Holy Court this time. Vertigo City-State is definitely not that easy to deal with. If they really dare to deal with Vertigo City-State, If a city-state uses force, it will be very dangerous. It is possible not to get any benefits, or even lose face. If that is really the case, then the Holy Court will not only fail to serve the purpose of killing chickens and monkeys, but will also lose face again. In that case, other city-states will not be able to Listen to the Holy Court.
What Tang Shi really cares about is this matter. He is really afraid that attacking the city-state of Ecstasy will have the opposite effect. Then all the calculations of the Holy Court before will be in vain. Even if it comes The Holy Court can still use other methods to restore its influence, and it will take several times the effort. Tang Shi has never thought about it. Now the Holy Court has no influence in the world of spiritual weapons, and even It has long since reached the point where everyone hates him.
The reason why Tang Shi and the others have this idea is because they believe that what the Holy Court has done to the city-states in the spiritual army world is all right, and the city-states in the spiritual army world should treat them It's just like being grateful. It's like a villain. He never thinks that what he does is bad. He doesn't even think that he has enemies. He thinks that he is very lovable.
