Capture

For the position of emperor, if one insists on adding the shackles of an emperor to limit it, it is naturally "one person under one person and above ten thousand people".

Now, Linshui is about to sit in such a position that everyone is crazy about.But before that, Linshui had to go through many tests.

Wisdom and bravery, everything is the same, and one's own strengths are the only way to be able to ascend to the position of national teacher.Back then, Zixuan was recognized for his unparalleled knowledge of ancient and modern times, as well as his profound and unfathomable martial arts.But today's Linshui is facing a test that is both the same and the same.

"Linshui, although my teacher only teaches you martial arts and metaphysics, but you have a special background, I think you will definitely be able to develop your own strengths, and you will definitely be able to surpass being a teacher and gain recognition."

The uneasiness in my heart was relieved a little because of Master Beauty's words.Master Beauty is right, you should have confidence in yourself.

Today is the day of succession, and before that Linshui is facing the legendary test of recognition.Follow Zixuan to a stone cave in the back of the palace, this is the forbidden area of ​​the underground palace, except for the previous national teachers or their candidates, other idlers, including the emperor, are not allowed to enter or leave at will.

"Go in, I can only send it here as a teacher." Zixuan stopped in front of the cave, smiled and nodded to Linshui.

Linshui looked at Zi Xuan firmly, the firmness in his eyes was unquestionable, he turned and left without hesitation.And it wasn't until his figure disappeared at the entrance of the cave that the smile on Zi Xuan's face slowly disappeared.

"Hey..." A long sigh, whether it is fate or fate, whether it is sin or debt, only the disciples can decide for themselves. "Yan'er." With a soft call, a figure quietly appeared beside Zi Xuan.

"Master." Fan Yan was dressed in black today, except for his resolute face, he exuded an extremely indifferent aura.

"Have you decided yet?"

"Yes." Fan Yan knew the meaning of the other party's words, and answered without hesitation.

"Even if you lose your freedom because of it? Even if he might still not fall in love with you because of it?"

"Yes."

The still decisive answer made Zixuan unable to refute anymore. "Forget it, if this is your decision, then go for it."

Fan Yan's eyes flashed, and he knelt down in front of Zi Xuan.He silently kowtowed three times to Zixuan, and finally took a deep look at Zixuan, then got up resolutely and walked into the cave.

Zixuan silently accepted the three kowtows, because his relationship with Yan'er as a teacher and apprentice ended here; because after today, there will be no such person as Fanyan in this world.From the moment of entering this cave, Fanyan has only two fates: either disappear in this world, or become the new leader of "Yu", and bear his own destiny, and exist for the master and the country .

If Yan'er had followed Yan'er's temperament, she might never betray Linshui in this life.Whether this is a blessing or a curse, it should be regarded as a blessing for Linshui, right...just for Yan'er herself...

"Hey." He sighed helplessly.Zixuan looked up at the sky, turned around and walked away.Walking to the foot of the mountain, I saw the expected figure.

Dressed in bright yellow clothes, she stood silently at the foot of the mountain, waiting for herself quietly.

"Huai." Zi Xuan called out, but couldn't keep the smile on his face because of the pain in his chest.He held his chest tightly, but such an action was meaningless and could not stop the bursts of blood from surging upwards.

The body swayed for a while before being supported, Emperor Huai looked at Zixuan's distorted face with a very gloomy expression. "you……"

Zixuan raised his trembling hand, blocking the other party's words. "I know my own body best. Don't worry. Linshui will definitely succeed. Let me go back and finish the last few things."

"You still want to leave the palace to go to that place?" Emperor Huai frowned tightly.

Based on Zixuan's current physical condition, he should lie down and use the royal holy medicine of the underground palace to relieve the pain.Although it can't prolong his life, at least it won't make him suffer so much all the time.As Zixuan himself said, even returning to Longwu Mountain with his body is an unattainable luxury.Everything was in vain, but Zixuan still insisted on going to that place—he and that person had known each other before, and it was also the place where they broke up.

Shiyan, what virtue and ability are you, what virtue and ability are you...

"You can't go, maybe this is the last time." Once, he met Xi Yan there, that fancy and cute boy had a delicate mind, and he could easily fall in love with him.However, it was also in that place that a misunderstanding finally caused each other to run in opposite directions, his hatred for himself, his silent remorse for him...but it should come to an end, the debt that he cannot repay in this life will eventually come to an end up.Every three years, I would go there to have a look and miss it, and this kind of behavior is coming to an end.

"I'll go with you." Emperor Huai was still worried, he got the news from the dark guard, that man is now in Zhenwu Kingdom, it can be said that the wind is like the wind and the rain is like the rain.This time he has taken action in secret, and Zhenwu's turmoil was also his plan.In the underground palace capital, there are still a group of dead men mixed in.It's just my own selfishness not to tell Zixuan, and I don't want Zixuan to be affected by that person any more.

"Your own lingering poison is still unclear, and the palace still needs your support." Zixuan shook his head, rejecting Emperor Huai's kindness.

"I have already written the imperial edict to pass on the throne, and it will only be a matter of time. If you hadn't returned to the palace, no one would be able to cure this poison. And if it weren't for your insistence, I have no intention of solving it. I will sit on the throne." It's been long enough, now that Ji Qing is able to take charge of her own affairs, I have nothing to worry about."

"Should this be what an emperor said?" Zixuan sighed helplessly: "Forget it, please come and accompany me." After all, this is the last time.

Eight times succession

It was like a very long dream. In the dream, I inexplicably traveled to an unknown country, and then turned into a leopard. I met many people and many things happened...

But is it really just a dream?The things in the dream were so real, so real that I almost thought it was real.It doesn't matter whether you talk to people or how you feel about them.The bottom of my heart will fluctuate accordingly, and my emotions will change accordingly.

My whole body is weak, why do I feel heavy?The heaviness of the body, the heaviness of the heart, and the heaviness of the brain that can hardly function and think.

With the last sliver of strength, he moved his fingers hard, and then felt the faint force from his wrist, gradually regaining his mind that was about to collapse.

what is that?It was as cold as a clear spring, pouring into the chest continuously.It seemed to come from the wrist... Yes, it was that power, the power to keep him awake.

The crisp sound of "Ding Dong" resounded in the almost extinguished darkness, Linshui's whole person trembled, and then fell into silent silence again.

"Is that all? But that's all, someone who wants to become the new national teacher."

Words full of mockery came from the darkness.

"Shut up, don't you see Master Yu's complexion is not good? Be careful with your head."

Another voice sounded next, but the tone of the words seemed to have a leisurely look at the show.

"Cut, Yu Er, you just love to worry about it. Mr. Yu is a person who was recognized by us only after breaking the 'Misty Phantom'. How can he compare with that kind of dying man."

"Yu San, I tell you to shut up, don't blame me for not thinking about the friendship of the same family. I don't care if Lord Yu blames you later, or if the new Lord doesn't let you go."

"What, it's up to him..."

This time, Yu San was only halfway through his words before being swallowed back abruptly.On the other hand, Yu Er, who was beside him, noticed Yu San's weird and terrified expression, reflexively followed his line of sight to look forward, and then was as shocked as him on the spot.

"By whom? Who do you think I am? Huh?"

The blood-red eyes are particularly frightening in the dark night, and the cold voice is like the mourning sound from hell.The man stood up from the ground and looked straight in the direction of Yu Er and Yu San. His body was still shaking, but it didn't affect his natural evil spirit.

As soon as Linshui regained consciousness, he felt that his chest was very hot and depressed, and he really needed an outlet to vent.And the guy who was "buzzing" around him made his already irritable mood even more irritable.

"I really have...the thought of purging." Lin Shui lowered his eyes, and just about to raise his hand, he felt the spring-like force coming from his wrist again. "Hmm..." He murmured, opened his eyes again, his sight had adapted to the darkness, and he saw the other palm on his wrist.

"Who are you?" Only half of the side face was exposed, covered by a huge totem with no meaning, except for the dark eyes, it was impossible to judge the man's face.

Although I don't know who the man is, but judging from the man holding my hand all the time, coupled with my gradually clear mind and calm emotions, it is not difficult to guess that the other party is a friend rather than an enemy.Linshui lowered her guard, and the red in her eyes also turned back to black.

"Your Majesty." Looking at Linshui who had regained his clarity, he loosened his hold on the other party's hand, and the man turned around, facing Linshui.

It was only then that Linshui discovered that the other half of the face besides the giant totem was also wearing a mask.The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, why did he let himself meet weird people every time?So is Gong Xihua, and so is this man, is it so fun to wear a mask?

"See Your Majesty." This time, the man actually knelt down on one knee.But Linshui only felt a gust of wind pass by, and two other young people appeared beside him, and they also knelt down to salute him.

"What... what is this? Get up quickly." I just came to participate in a test, why did this situation suddenly appear?But speaking of it, this test is really difficult. At the beginning, it was a series of tricks, and then it was a full-fledged test.
