對整個皇廷來說,這一個中秋明顯不比十年前非人者來襲輕鬆,朱門長子朱萬屠殺國監宮、虐殺皇上寵宦小陸子之事已傳遍整座皇城,天下四門公然對抗皇廷,這可是轟動天下的大事,皇廷上下早已在議論紛紛,人心惶惶。167Please respect copyright.PENANA3Wif48bXra
167Please respect copyright.PENANA0WEIyfa38a
「我的媽呀!你們有沒有看到國監宮的慘況,那……那簡直不是人的所為!」167Please respect copyright.PENANA7eJxsekkBD
167Please respect copyright.PENANAFmWYulak9u
「對呀!縱然陸大人罪有應得,但其他人也是無辜的吧?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAETHZC8llw1
167Please respect copyright.PENANAMkBRfYM5BE
「誰說不是呢?那做法邪裡邪氣,我道那朱萬不知是否給妖魔操控,說不定就是妖魔化身,否則怎可能做得那麼絕?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAiQkBabrNhG
167Please respect copyright.PENANApqaxrWNM4b
「照呀!就像絕醉樓的獨孤將軍一樣。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAGtPJ5bNWIV

「幸好九爺及時趕到,出手拿着了朱門的殺人王田嬰,否則,好像媚妃的天寵宮也會遭殃。九爺也真厲害,重傷下還能擒下那田嬰。」167Please respect copyright.PENANA4edr5PlhNI
167Please respect copyright.PENANAEjc5HkW1Uq
「你知道什麼?據說九爺可是拼了命的,這一次傷上加傷,你看過去數年中秋正日九爺必在皇城各處跟禁衛們賀上一賀,今日可連人影也看不到,可知他傷得真不輕。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAJ5dBDa4LRW
167Please respect copyright.PENANAVpmig4CnLP
「唉!不知那朱門為什麼要殺那二人,真的如傳聞,是為了結成那討伐非人者的聯盟嗎?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAzro9S89Kpe
167Please respect copyright.PENANAr0kTy6LCQk
「唉!據聞龍爺及遊將軍也在拿下朱萬那狂徒時給傷了,真是屋漏偏逢連夜雨,若朱門真的傾力而攻,我們皇廷……真的……真的擋得下嗎?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAkdIgrZn7oz
167Please respect copyright.PENANAbl8iUdCXDP
一名禁衛隊目見下屬喋喋不休,即喝道:「閉嘴!」眾禁衛即噤若寒蟬。事實上,那禁衛隊目也在暗嘆,天下四門的朱門全力出擊,現在的皇廷是否擋得下,又有誰答得了?167Please respect copyright.PENANAHQN3QU1Ee1
167Please respect copyright.PENANAPsb88pVFwJ
只是,縱然有朱門襲擊的陰影,但日子還是要過,皇城上下現在已忙過不停,為中秋節而到處奔波。站在皇城北面酬神塔中,看着皇城人來人往,遊仙不禁嘆了口氣道:「中秋節……偏偏又是中秋,皇廷難道前世跟嫦娥過不去嗎?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAiU1uTMnsUh
167Please respect copyright.PENANAUaXpT23Mdt
一把蒼老沙啞的聲音答:「管他嫦娥還是朱挽,要來的始終要來,難道還怕了他們不成?」說完竟大力咳嗽起來,咳得腰也彎了起來。167Please respect copyright.PENANATKUQpyzWnu
167Please respect copyright.PENANA6Vo9ZdHN5s
看着那人,遊仙不禁暗暗吃驚:「朱門歸元勁果然厲害,龍霸只不過着了一掌,竟然已傷成這樣?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAIUT4cNVVdW
167Please respect copyright.PENANAgJOJ9htMlE
只見龍霸身上披着白羊毛大袍,對比昨天,一張臉就像遭抽走了生氣,一臉皺紋像疊在一起,沒精打采似的,絲毫不像往日那霸氣縱橫的龍霸。167Please respect copyright.PENANA2NCtGxRKyl
167Please respect copyright.PENANAyDjzEEY2lc
遊仙當下乾笑幾聲道:「龍爺當然不怕,但試想,現在皇廷只剩你和我二人,朱門門下食客三千,觀乎那被捕的三十名黑衣人均非庸手,哈哈……自古雙拳難敵四手,何況……九爺他……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAtdS9AFnEbM
167Please respect copyright.PENANAIXB8vC0oaj
一聽見「九爺」二字,龍霸臉上登時現出痛苦神色,就像是面上給抽上一鞭,怒道:「正是他們傷了雙兒,他不找我們我也會找朱挽算上這筆帳!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAErKWEFFl5s
167Please respect copyright.PENANAa6ubbzWEVQ
遊仙聽後不禁嘆了口氣,心想:「想不到那殺人王田嬰這麼厲害,竟然能令龍無雙受了那麼重的傷,他那傷勢可不是一兩日就能痊癒,唉!其餘八龍又……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAlfIQniTiCo
167Please respect copyright.PENANAEGeDW8uuFk
龍霸忽問:「那赤焰子及屠名呢?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAoG1vxGpTZ6
167Please respect copyright.PENANAhGWFgHdsbQ
遊仙想不到龍霸突然問起二人,隨即尷尬一笑道:「哈哈……他二人今晨已返回漠北和崑崙了。」167Please respect copyright.PENANA29n7hmbCSt
167Please respect copyright.PENANAiIhS8pUidB
龍霸哼了一聲道:「那你的什麼討伐非人者聯盟看來也是沒門了。」167Please respect copyright.PENANA11ulKvkD0Y
167Please respect copyright.PENANAi76rMrui8i
遊仙似不想談論這一話題,忽然說道:「那朱萬及田嬰怎樣了?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAVQpEgC5jAs
167Please respect copyright.PENANAm2Tp1vHDiB
一談及這二人,龍霸立刻又皺上了眉,道:「那二人的嘴可密得很,不論刑部的人如何拷問,就是不說,幸好探子說河北朱門還是沒有什麼動靜。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAojbCrfYCGB
167Please respect copyright.PENANAr3oaJ8aaLo
遊仙沉默了一會兒,然後問:「那皇上他……」167Please respect copyright.PENANACOj6sIsc3r
167Please respect copyright.PENANAGxHjw2FDx2
龍霸無奈地答:「聽得朱門來襲,皇上當然受驚,在那媚妃的推薦下,現在他正傳召了世果居士。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAS4rTKIprwJ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAcNuagRDx5m
遊仙不禁失笑道:「世果?那算命的?哈哈!皇上實在有夠風趣,難道那世果居士能有法子對抗朱門?」167Please respect copyright.PENANA7fzUBGSqHh
167Please respect copyright.PENANAHtWdGN3UUV
龍霸說:「世果……哈哈……遊大人,只要你在皇廷待得久了,對這些事就見怪不怪了。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAWwzlgKsZsq

莊嚴的黃金大殿上,數以百計文武百官分成兩行排列,只見他們手中各拿奏摺,明顯有事奏請,然而,如今看這些官員的神色,卻明顯哭笑不得,因為他們的主子明顯有更緊要的事情要辦,可管不得他們,只着他們在殿上等候。他們的主子呢?只見黃金殿的盡頭有數十級樓梯,梯上橫置一張金碧輝煌的長枱,枱上雕滿五爪金龍及祥雲,枱後有一張雕上黃金飛龍的長椅,任誰都知道,這張椅子具有無窮的魔力,是世上最高權力的象徵,只是現在這張椅子卻是空着,因為他的主人已急得離開椅子,在側面左右徘徊,明顯很是焦急。人呢?這世上最高權力的人,年僅三十餘,頭上戴着釀滿珠寶的高冠,前後有數串寶珠如珠簷垂下,一身黃袍,袍上以金線繡滿五爪飛龍,威武非凡,只是,這手握天下權柄的人卻明顯過於逸樂,身子面上賤肉橫生,一雙眼沒精打采,眼下黑圈離遠可見。167Please respect copyright.PENANALUBmqSYhow
167Please respect copyright.PENANA19MTh4b2BI
突然殿外一禁衛唱道:「世果居士求見!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAxHBHH0wM0Z
167Please respect copyright.PENANAoPe257BtFT
一聽見世果大師名號,皇上的臉上登時如久旱逢露,胖胖的臉上現出了笑容,即回到龍椅上坐下,口已急不及待叫道:「快……快傳!快傳!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAkBobq7dRmd
167Please respect copyright.PENANArVVhrkzcUD
百官聽見世果居士,登時亂了起來,交頭接耳之聲此起彼落。167Please respect copyright.PENANAAjiH2kLZgi
167Please respect copyright.PENANASQ3oBo92l9
「世果居士?不就是那名滿天下的神算子嗎?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAswbflopjWu
167Please respect copyright.PENANAZfW4cOEWoi
「傳聞他自幼獲得天啟,自此能洞悉天機,憑着他的神機妙算,不但屢次預測天災,還助不少人趨吉避凶。據聞不少江湖大豪都有找他談談。」167Please respect copyright.PENANA0J59FoCk4Y
167Please respect copyright.PENANAXBrMNBY0ea
「是呀!江南襄陽王就因他一句話而決定散盡千金,解甲歸田。河北陳將軍亦因他一句話而扭轉敗勢,盡破十萬馬賊。」167Please respect copyright.PENANA42U2HEVfJ6
167Please respect copyright.PENANATWFEqTBsuS
「現在他的一句話,可說是字字千金。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAgkFq514R3j
167Please respect copyright.PENANAPxHB24iygN
眾官見皇上如此急於見這位世果居士,心中都不禁大奇,不少人已回首引頸,希望看看這名滿天下的神算子。167Please respect copyright.PENANA4cS2iy5ISl
167Please respect copyright.PENANASSEYMQ7jdk
這時一人昂首闊步走進大殿, 來人一身米白絲衣,頭上頂戴黑色道冠,衣飾簡單但剪裁貼身,手中輕搖白色羽毛扇,神情似笑非笑,神容丰俊,實難看出其真實年紀,只是給人一塵不染的感覺。 只見這世果居士面不紅氣不喘,輕搖手中羽扇,步履輕盈走到殿前,對着皇上唱道:「皇上萬歲,萬歲,萬萬歲!」居然並不下跪。眾官看見不禁心下惱怒,一武官更喝道:「斗膽來人,見了皇上還不下跪?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAdeiw12xyyy
167Please respect copyright.PENANAoBbPlB6g40
世果居士卻充耳不聞,只站在原地微微笑着。167Please respect copyright.PENANAV65wEvYSCp
167Please respect copyright.PENANAuJfhj6P3bM
皇上見狀即說:「住嘴!你們都給我住嘴!世果居士乃是朕的貴客,這種俗例就免了。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAFhbz2iHZPn
167Please respect copyright.PENANAE4ePNTdbWP
世果聽後微微一笑說:「如此謝過皇上,觀乎皇上之相,烏雲密佈,明顯有一大凶星降臨皇廷,唉!」隨即顯得一臉憂愁。167Please respect copyright.PENANAKWuu8YCINL
167Please respect copyright.PENANAoWW382rJP4
他這句話可是說到皇上的心裡去,皇上即時問:「對呀!對呀!居士可有化解之法?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAWo3J5tx87q
167Please respect copyright.PENANAnx36CHxkmp
只見那世果聽後緊皺眉目,忽然屈指而算,然後嘆了口氣說:「皇上,小民昨晚夜觀天象,見一大凶星自河北而來,色赤,已想皇廷必生亂狀,今日再看皇上龍顏之相,更加確切。小民斗膽,昨晚必定是朱門來犯!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAUAGJxF3TuM
167Please respect copyright.PENANAFhSFHCRWas
這句話一出,眾皆譁然,事實上,在遊仙及龍霸指令下,朱門來犯一事原本就是皇廷中人的秘密,即便大殿上百官也非全然知道事情實況。皇上聽到世果一語而中,心中登時對他敬若神明,脫口而出:「居士真神人,這事本是皇廷秘密,你怎……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAw9XvXr7pO2
167Please respect copyright.PENANAolArrTwmFk
世果登時打個哈哈說:「在小民眼中,天下並無秘密,小民如何知道並不要緊,問題是如何化解……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAXGg7sUMJIq
167Please respect copyright.PENANAtWkzavgvsu
皇上即一拍龍案說:「對對對!如何化解這場災難,還看居士指點呀!」167Please respect copyright.PENANA7QlgQMaLNA
167Please respect copyright.PENANAmCjOuVYFA6
這樣一說,百官登時心下明暸,原來皇廷昨日受到朱門襲擊,這次皇上是要找這神算子來趨吉避凶,化解災劫,一眾武官卻聽得咬牙切齒,心想:「遇敵來襲,皇上不思如何迎敵,反召來一術士指點,這可是武者之辱!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAAoNS0nJvJL
167Please respect copyright.PENANAvKZpoPDalT
世果卻忽然肅容走上前,眾禁衛只道這人要行刺皇上,登時「嗆」一聲,紛紛拔出刀刃,唬得世果也一時不敢靠前,只有點腦怒道:「皇上,這……要小民如何為你消災……」167Please respect copyright.PENANA9cFnxgEsB9
167Please respect copyright.PENANAmxoWtwHE5B
皇上登時龍顏大怒,喝道:「你們退下,讓居士上來。」眾禁衛聽得皇上喝斥,如何敢再犯龍顏,登時俯首退了下去。167Please respect copyright.PENANANj8talJWCB
167Please respect copyright.PENANA3KT0WBGYoe
世果見眾禁衛退開,登時走到皇上身前,對皇上說:「請皇上伸出手來。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAzNhBCmq6Vu
167Please respect copyright.PENANA7R2DjbemOv
皇上那容懷疑,即伸出雙手。世果登時聚精會神看着皇上攤開的肥大肉掌,大殿上登時鴉雀無聲,世果看了好一會,忽然面有難色喃喃自語:「怎會這樣……唉!難……難……難……」167Please respect copyright.PENANALrCjQ0RGBl
167Please respect copyright.PENANAzdyZtfUntz
這時皇上對世果深信不疑,聽得世果每說一難字,他滿臉的肥肉就縮入一分,整張臉就像摺疊起來,不禁急問:「居……居士……怎麼樣?」167Please respect copyright.PENANArQqZT6uLd7
167Please respect copyright.PENANAYxTqzFe1tD
世果歎了口氣然後道:「觀乎皇上掌相,今年本就是皇上的大凶年,到了中秋更是凶星入宮,必有極大災難,要化解極不容易,此乃第一難。再者,皇上掌上有兩處折位,即除了朱門外,皇上命中還有一更大的災星,這災星指的便是非人者,非人者其禍天下,此乃第二難。而且……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAGpivRi3WQn
167Please respect copyright.PENANAQPw9427tj2
皇上聽得非人者早已嚇得魂不附體,即震聲問:「還……還有什麼?」167Please respect copyright.PENANA9fT4oSS4vp
167Please respect copyright.PENANAJsuNt7SC5t
世果突然跪下說:「小民不敢說……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAppcqzKrV30
167Please respect copyright.PENANAUyOmTXzY7K
皇上想不到世果突然下跪,即雙手扶着世果說:「居士快快請起,有話好說,有話好說。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAppNF2sgtt7
167Please respect copyright.PENANApZ8ZrFMDb2
世果歎了口氣道:「觀乎皇上掌相、面相及星象,相互參照下,皇上陽壽到今年已盡!此乃第三難!」167Please respect copyright.PENANANOggl6dqyS
167Please respect copyright.PENANAoO6Gs6CgRh
皇上不聽尤可,一聽之下不禁冷汗直流呆在當場。一眾官員聽見世果之言,不禁紛紛喝道:「胡說八道!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAA1l187Ncu2
167Please respect copyright.PENANAY2SPw2U51i
數名武官更已拔出刀刃上前大喝:「大膽妖人在此胡言亂語?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAprRJmr7ybH
167Please respect copyright.PENANA71V8HtRm1B
世果卻面不改容,只說:「三難雖難,但為了萬民,也非……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAwb816KP8Ap
167Please respect copyright.PENANAJYsW7byHxj
皇上原本龍顏已現怒容,聽得世果語鋒已轉,立即一擺手叫停百官,問:「居士救命,居士救命!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAvAcm1fsINX
167Please respect copyright.PENANALleVhSDIfJ
世果緩緩起身說:「要化解凶星助皇上增加陽壽本就逆天而行,這實在有違我等修道者的根本……」167Please respect copyright.PENANA9zMtCU11d2
167Please respect copyright.PENANAV91Gzgvgpv
皇上即說:「居……居士……你不為朕也要為萬民呀!朕什麼也依你的!」167Please respect copyright.PENANADzPMqhPY2v
167Please respect copyright.PENANABVyqHwvijc
世果嘆了口氣道:「也罷!縱然會縮減小民陽壽,但為了皇上及萬民,小民也只好當仁不讓了。要化解這些災劫,必先要找出三道難題的相關之物,即與朱門、非人者及皇上血脈相連之物。」167Please respect copyright.PENANA0JWNEzZyOZ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAbOD6swKZLd
皇上即說:「有!有!有!朱門長子朱萬已是階下囚,至於非人者,當年眾高手力拼非人者,就割下了那妖魔的一根指頭,至於朕……不會是要割下朕的……」167Please respect copyright.PENANA3LzAsJJhuX
167Please respect copyright.PENANAECywDPt8Hk
世果對天打個哈哈說:「如此好辦!如此好辦!皇上放心,小民只要皇上的數根頭髮就好!」看見皇上大大呼了口氣,世果笑了笑又道:「只要集齊三物,皇上容小民於這黃金大殿外開壇作法……還要一燒得沸騰的銅鼎……」167Please respect copyright.PENANAHv9VP0f1hT
167Please respect copyright.PENANAGatk07bMar
皇上問:「要作什麼?要烤了那朱萬嗎?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAKp3KIcAnzu
167Please respect copyright.PENANA564oeqeCMs
世果說:「非也,這銅鼎是要作放上犧牲品以獻上蒼,替皇上解災……」167Please respect copyright.PENANA0LXMmioa2Z
167Please respect copyright.PENANAQu5KIiGqeE
說到這裡,有數名官員已禁不住破口大罵:「妖言惑眾!皇上,你千萬別聽這妖人所言,作一場法就能消弭災禍?門都沒有!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAMuCcjIoydW
167Please respect copyright.PENANA59c7LoA83X
面對群起指控,世果不怒反笑問:「敢問各位,你們是否能為了皇上,做什麼也可以?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAasY2mdiPPZ
167Please respect copyright.PENANAqOVEn23MT7
剛剛大罵的官員即齊聲答:「當然!為了皇上,下官萬死不辭!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAUM7bUgLZZG
167Please respect copyright.PENANAMHB6fyXNWw
世果即一拍大腿讚道:「真忠臣也!如此甚好!恭喜皇上能有此等忠臣,敢問他們姓名?」167Please respect copyright.PENANAvti1XmWKWH
167Please respect copyright.PENANAYLJTs5qAVZ
皇上沉吟道:「那是山東統領孟群、太原軍統陳師、兵部士郎劉達……等等。」167Please respect copyright.PENANAgPI9TZoFNA
167Please respect copyright.PENANA6ZWJ28W2EW
世果一邊聽一邊屈指而算,然後道:「總共三十餘人……唔……」突然轉身問眾人:「你們有那些是肖虎、馬?請站上前來」167Please respect copyright.PENANAq7OVtTZv0x
167Please respect copyright.PENANADm6y7BsmE9
眾人一時不明所以,皇上即喝:「快答……卿家快答……」在皇上喝斥下,有八人不情不願站了出來。看見這些人,世果喜形於色說:「好!好!好!八人剛剛好!皇上,這八人極為重要,因為他們就是獻給蒼天的犧牲品!」167Please respect copyright.PENANACYcXAXIWRy
167Please respect copyright.PENANA5kW78Dym1V
此語一出,眾人不禁大吃一驚,那八人更是怒不可遏,紛紛大罵世果,連皇上也是沉吟不已。世果見狀不禁歎道:「唉!小民也知此事甚難,罷了,罷了!一切皆休!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAzuonaH20jv
167Please respect copyright.PENANAsxYOnyLQfC
皇上見世果神情悲痛,不禁問道:「居士除此別無他法?」167Please respect copyright.PENANArsvAFlnmDX
167Please respect copyright.PENANAuzPJ32wQdl
世果道:「皇上,此乃八大金剛大法,必需選擇對皇上極忠心而又肖虎及馬的八人作犧牲品,化作八大金剛,替皇上消災解困,此法一成,不但災難盡去,皇上也能福壽永享……」167Please respect copyright.PENANA24rzs3TEiw
167Please respect copyright.PENANAvIMBCWCIlB
聽見這句說話,八名賢臣已感不妙,正要喝斥世果,那料皇上即道:「唉!如此……為了萬民,也只好難為愛卿了!人來!好好『照料』八位愛卿!」167Please respect copyright.PENANASivS2ZXuAQ
167Please respect copyright.PENANA6qJ7TzeFhX
眾禁衛跟隨皇上已久,當然知道皇上心底話,即一躍上前拿下了八人,那八名賢臣不想皇上這般無情,不禁大叫:「皇上!皇上三思呀!莫聽這妖人所言!他……必定是妖魔所扮!皇上!」167Please respect copyright.PENANARbg4bgWAHj
167Please respect copyright.PENANAeSQXjwhz1k
皇上皺着眉說:「愛卿們為國捐軀,朕必永感爾等恩德!朕也會善待爾等家人,禁衛們,還不快去準備居士要的東西!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAIwu5QvIuzM
167Please respect copyright.PENANAWDRuQld3xU
那八人聽得皇上所言也是悲從中來,有數人更是當場哭了起來說:「罷了!罷了!我等為國為民數十載,想不到最終落鍋而死!蒼天無眼!」167Please respect copyright.PENANAVUNb7aumTL
167Please respect copyright.PENANA3uIRoVUshz

「皇上!這妖人必是妖魔所扮,快快殺了他以正視聽。」167Please respect copyright.PENANA0albIQoONN
167Please respect copyright.PENANAqU4xIG05cb
到得後來更開始辱罵皇上,皇上聽得眉頭大皺,即揮一揮手,着禁衛們封了他們的嘴,讓他們不能張聲。群臣見皇上深信一妖人所言,殘害忠臣,也是怒不可遏,奈何皇上專橫獨斷,可是誰也不敢當面觸犯聖顏,均怒不敢言,有部分臣子不忍親睹慘劇發生,都稱病離殿,一時間殿內只餘下數十名一向奉承之輩。167Please respect copyright.PENANAM2va1Zm7Qv
167Please respect copyright.PENANAFesmN258wa
世果見狀即說:「這法事要晚上作才能收大效,適逢今日中秋佳節,不若皇上今夜與眾臣一邊歡度佳節,一邊觀賞小民作法如何?」167Please respect copyright.PENANA9hW4YC8f93
167Please respect copyright.PENANARsNNO0FNfI
皇上聽罷即說:「一切但憑居士吩咐。」
