Fu Luan

Qin Ziyu was speechless for a long while, but when Xie Shigu reached out his hand, he turned his face away as if waking up from a dream.

Xie Shigu's fingertips rested on the side of his face. After the silence, Qin Ziyu said: "I don't know if what you said is true, even if it is true, there are grievances and debtors, and those are the ones you should collect debts from." Heavenly Demon, these are not an excuse for you to plan everything in the mortal world, collude with evil cultivators, and kill so many innocent lives."

He raised his eyes and looked at Xie Shigu, who had bottomless eyes in front of him: "Your Taoist partner, does he know this? Does he agree with you? If he doesn't agree or even know, you do this in his name." The thing is to shift the blame to him, why should he bear such a heavy sin because of your wishful thinking?"

"You still refuse to help me," Xie Shigu's eyes were full of disappointment, "No matter what I say, you just refuse to help me. I like you, want you, and even decided to pay back what I owed him, and then forget the past. , so you won’t help me.”

"How much sincerity is in your liking? Do I deserve it?" Qin Ziyu laughed at himself, "You said that I resemble him, like your former Taoist companion. He only remembers the things of this life, so naturally he doesn't remember you. You forced him to stay by his side, and he hated you because of it. It's just a substitute."

"Maybe I am a bit like the person you want, so you also hold on to me. In the end, you are just selfish, because he forgot, you don't want his reincarnation, but you still want to kill him." He does evil in his name, and I, because you so-called like me, so I have to help you? Do you think that if you like me, you are giving me alms, so I must be grateful and help you do evil? "

"Everything is due to your wishful thinking and the difficulty of others."

Qin Ziyu shook his head: "Impossible, I don't want to, and I can't, don't say I don't know where Madam and the others are, even if I do, I won't tell you."

Xie Shigu's expression suddenly changed, his brows were filled with hostility, and he reached out and grabbed his jaw forcefully.

Qin Ziyu stared at him stubbornly, and when he couldn't breathe and was forced to cry, he refused to beg for mercy.

After a moment of silence, Xie Shigu let go of his hand: "It's like this every time, are you not afraid that I will really kill you?"

"You know how much you have, but you still dare to separate from them, deliberately not hiding your whereabouts, just to hold me back? Are you so sure that I won't do anything to you?"

Qin Ziyu: "It's my luck to survive, it's fine if I die."

He told Xu Youming at that time that he could save his life in the hands of Xie Shigu, but he was not quite sure. From the time he separated from Le Wuyan and the others, he no longer cared about his own life and death, especially when he recalled the past in Xiaoyao After those memories of the mountain.

If there is no Le Wuyan, there will be no him today, and he is willing to do so.

Xie Shigu's eyes were slightly closed, and the dim light in the hall outlined the sharper shadow of his brow bone.

After a long time, he slowly said: "You provoked me, don't just let it go so easily."

In the next two days, Wang De was busy preparing for his return to Beijing, and told Le Wuyan in detail about the situation in Changxinghou's Mansion in the middle of Beijing.

It's nothing more than private affairs in the house, fighting for power and profit.

Wang De is also a bold person. He ignored the suggestion in the letter from Beijing Central to find a dull and easy-to-control person, and directly approached Le Wuyan, the "immortal elder who knows fairy arts", and he probably had some ambitions of his own. .

Le Wuyan didn't bother to expose it, because of Qi Sifan, he wanted to go to Changxing Hou Mansion to take a look, and the rest were not interested at all.

There was also news from the barracks that the general woke up the night they came back, he had already recovered, and the next day he sent someone to send a carload of rich gifts to Zhuangzi.

The news has been concealed from the outside world, and the nearby villagers are still worried and frightened. The Beili army is full of ambitions. A few days later, they really came to this area to burn, kill and loot. People, reluctantly exhaled the anger of defeat in the previous round.

When the good news came back, the people inside and outside the city were full of joy.

On that day, that General Qi brought only a dozen of his cronies and subordinates, and came to Zhuangzi in a low-key manner, personally visiting the door and saying that he wanted to visit the "two elders".

When Wang De came in to report, Le Wuyan was sitting on the porch eating melon seeds, watching Xu Youming dance with his sword.

Xu Youming didn't use his spiritual power, not to mention the sword intent, even the sword energy was restrained, and he simply swung the sword, but there was a fierce aura in it.When Wang De came in and saw it, he was dazzled by the dazzling sword light, and was so frightened that he almost dared not approach.

Hearing that the general came to the door, Le Wuyan, who was drowsy and dozing off, suddenly got excited and sat up straight: "Okay, okay, let him in now."

"Tell him to come in alone, while the rest wait outside." Xu Youming threw out this sentence in a cold voice.

Wang De took the order and left.

The sword in Xu Youming's hand was not sheathed, Le Wuyan reminded him: "Put it away, don't scare anyone."

Xu Youming glanced at him, ignored him, and didn't take his sword back.

Le Wuyan held back his smile, and with just one glance, he saw through what Xu Youming was thinking. Xu Youming must be the reincarnation of a vinegar spirit...

When the other party came in, he stepped into the courtyard when a cold sword energy pierced through the air, and he reacted quickly. He drew out the sword at his waist and blocked it calmly, blocking Xu Youming's sword energy.

Although Xu Youming only used less than [-]% of his skills.

On the blade of the opponent's iron sword, there was also a faint sword energy entwined.

Le Wuyan saw this scene in his eyes and was secretly surprised. Xu Youming tried to test it out, but this person's ability was more powerful than they imagined.

Then it became clear that the physical body made by Tian Dao according to Xu Youming's appearance must have the same spiritual roots as Xu Youming. Even if he has not entered the practice school, this person has explored the way of swords by himself, and has made some achievements, which is not particularly unusual Things.

The sword in Xu Youming's hand was finally sheathed, and the other party took a step forward, cupped his fists and saluted them: "I'm Qi Feng, thank you two elders for saving your life."

He had a natural attitude, neither arrogant nor humble, Le Wuyan looked at people, and saw that his expression was almost exactly the same as Xu Youming's, and even the arc of his eyebrows that he occasionally frowned when he spoke, couldn't help but be surprised.

Sure enough, the spirit raised in this physical body is the second Xu Youming.

However, this person's appearance is indeed much older, with conspicuous green residue on his chin, and faint fine lines around his eyes, he looks the same but different from Xu Youming.

Le Wuyan smiled, and when Xu Youming turned his eyes, he blinked at him and asked Qi Feng: "I heard that the general went to the battlefield at the age of 16 and had never been defeated before. Why did he lose so badly this time? And seriously injured?"

He asked bluntly, Qi Feng didn't seem to feel offended, and said bluntly: "Someone in the imperial court colluded with the enemy, planted spy in the army, and cooperated internally and externally. This time it was indeed my negligence."

Le Wuyan: "Did you get the eyeliner out?"

"We've been caught," the other party said, "but the matter is so important that I can't make decisions on my own. I have arranged for people to escort her to Beijing."

Le Wuyan asked more after hearing the words: "But after all, you lost the battle, and the court will not hold you accountable?"

"If someone makes use of the topic, they will naturally. If it is light, they will be fined and demoted, and if it is serious, they will lose their rank and seize military power." Qi Feng said, but there was no resentment in his expression, as if he was not talking about himself.

Le Wuyan: "Then why aren't you worried at all?"

Qi Feng: "It's useless to worry."

Le Wuyan confirmed again that this person's personality was indeed the same as Xu Youming's.

This is what Xu Youming would say.

"Yaoyao," he pointed to Xu Youming with his eyes, "you can teach him a few tricks, so that he can take the blame and make meritorious deeds."

Xu Youming's disapproval was written all over his face, and Le Wuyan sent a voice transmission to him: "You don't have to do anything else, just teach him a few sword moves. If it really affects anything, it can't be counted on you."

Xu Youming: "Is that why you want to help him?"

Le Wuyan: "Meeting is fate."

Xu Youming didn't make a sound anymore, Le Wuyan only thought he agreed, and said to Qi Feng: "You are quite talented in the way of swordsmanship, let him teach you a few tricks, even if you break into the enemy's barracks alone and kill the coach have to."

Qi Feng naturally knew that this cold-faced fairy elder was the real expert, and he had just tried a trick just now. He had already noticed that the opponent's swordsmanship was far above him, and he was even beyond his reach.

When Le Wuyan said that, he was not polite, and once again bowed to Xu Youming, "Thank you for your advice."

Xu Youming frowned and nodded reluctantly.

Qi Feng said: "Today, if I accept the kindness of the two elders, I will repay it in the future."

Le Wuyan smiled. Although this person said grateful words, his face was as expressionless as Xu Youming's, but he was still much more knowledgeable and interesting than Xu Youming.

Xu Youming threw out the sentence "No need", and his tone was even colder.

Le Wuyan continued to ask: "I see that you are not very surprised by the so-called fairy art, have you seen it before?"

"No, I heard from my grandfather," Qi Feng said, "My grandfather guarded the gate here in the early years. Someone passed by here and used fairy magic to eradicate the plague. He saw it with his own eyes."

Unexpectedly, he also said to thank Shi Gu, that guy, Le Wuyan heard the words and said, "What did he say about that guy?"

Qi Feng: "That man did save many people, but he also harmed them."

Le Wuyan raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that?"

Qi Feng said: "King Duan was killed by him."

"Who is King Duan?" Le Wuyan asked, "We don't know much about the affairs here, so please explain more clearly."

Qi Feng explained: "King Duan is the elder brother of the former emperor, and the uncle of the present emperor. He was the most promising person to inherit the throne. 60 years ago, the grandfather of the present emperor, Emperor Mingzhao, died. King Duan personally led the army on this border at that time. The news rushed back to Beijing. On the way, hundreds of soldiers under him were all killed and their throats were sealed with a sword. When my grandfather led the troops to arrive, the assassin left under their noses. Grandpa couldn't stop it, that person said at the time that his Taoist companion was killed by those people, and he should be rewarded."

Xu Youming cut in his voice: "How about Duan Wang?"

Qi Feng looked at him and said: "Prince Duan is a truly talented and strategic enlightened lord. If he ascends the throne, the Beili people will not become stronger and stronger in the next few decades, causing wars on the border for years, and the people living in dire straits. After the king was assassinated, the kings in Beijing fought for the throne, the court was in turmoil, countless people were implicated, and the remnants of the previous dynasty took the opportunity to stir up trouble, these internal and external troubles would never have happened."

Seeing Xu Youming's strange expression, Le Wuyan sent him a voice transmission again: "Is there something wrong?"

Xu Youming said: "When I calculated the fate of the Zhou Dynasty, I did calculate that Ziwei Star should have come to the world and the Ming Lord ascended the throne, and had accumulated strength for at least a hundred years. According to what he said, it would have been Ziwei Star who had fallen in advance. There was a change in the fate of the Zhou Dynasty."

Le Wuyan: "..."

So the person who finally affected the fate of this mortal country was Xie Shigu?

Le Wuyan: "He has affected the destiny of the country, won't Heaven punish him?"

"Yes," Xu Youming said, "there must be punishment. I don't know what it is."

Le Wuyan was speechless, he didn't sympathize with Xie Shigu, he only sympathized with his Taoist companion.

Looking back at Qi Feng, Le Wuyan asked, "So do you think King Duan and his men should be killed?"

Qi Feng asked him back: "What do you think?"

Le Wuyan smiled, and turned to ask Xu Youming, "What do you think?"

Xu Youming said calmly: "If you kill it, you will kill it."

Le Wuyan nodded: "Although that person has done a lot of immoral things, if his Taoist companion was really killed by that king, what's wrong with him killing him? As for what happened next, it shouldn't be on his head superior."

It is rare for him to agree with Xie Shigu's views on this point, otherwise he would not have slaughtered Fei Shamen's family for his parents back then. He knew that he would be criticized if he did this, and he was also forbidden by the law of heaven because of this. As Xu Youming said, if you kill him, you kill him, there is nothing to regret.

Qi Feng said: "What the elder said is indeed reasonable."

Le Wuyan was satisfied, if this person was full of reason and said something he didn't like to hear, he would take back his previous idea of ​​letting Xu Youming teach him swordsmanship, and throw him out.

Le Wuyan: "But I see your tone doesn't seem to be a bit moved?"

Qi Feng said calmly: "I don't understand love matters."

Le Wuyan was immediately happy: "Don't understand? Can you tell that we are a couple?"

Qi Feng's eyes turned around between him and Xu Youming: "I can see it."

"That's not hopeless," Le Wuyan said, "Do you think it's strange?"

Qi Feng: "Others' affairs have nothing to do with me."

What he said didn't mean to be contemptuous or contemptuous, it was just someone else's private matter, and indeed it had nothing to do with him.

Le Wuyan clicked his tongue inwardly, as expected, he had the same virtue as Xu Youming.

"I think you are too old, don't you have a family?"

Qi Feng: "No."

Le Wuyan asked curiously, "Why?"

Qi Feng: "If the elder must ask, firstly, I have no intention of doing so, and secondly, when I was young, I was stupid and stupid. Some Taoists once commented that I was born lonely and widowed, lacking soul and soul, so I shouldn't force it."

Le Wuyan said disdainfully: "Where did the Jianghu Taoist come from to talk nonsense, you are not short of soul."

You have no soul at all.

Before the spirit was raised, it was a walking dead, no wonder it wasn't stupid.

Le Wuyan waved his hand: "Okay, it's fate to meet each other. When I have a chance in the future, I will help you find a good partner."

Qi Feng frowned slightly, and finally said only one sentence: "Thank you."

Half a day later, Xu Youming taught Qi Feng a set of introductory swordsmanship. Qi Feng did not show the same joy as the others, and his face was always the same. When learning with Xu Youming, he was meticulous and did not understand. It is obviously like a treasure to ask for advice carefully.

Le Wuyan watched from the sidelines, and only after he had sent his people away did he ask Xu Youming, "What realm can he reach in the end after learning your swordsmanship?"

Xu Youming: "The aura here is too thin, which will hinder the way of the sword. I'm afraid the sword will can't be condensed. In terms of the sword aura, his talent can do a lot, and it's enough for this ordinary world."

Le Wuyan asked him with a smile: "How does it feel to teach yourself?"

Xu Youming: "Myself?"

"Isn't it yourself?" Le Wuyan said, "I think he is the second you, with exactly the same appearance, temperament, and cultivation talent as you."

Xu Youming: "Then you still want to help him find a partner?"

"Then what else?" Le Wuyan said with a smile, "Can you let me take him in? I don't care..."

Seeing Xu Youming's face darkened, Le Wuyan changed his words: "Okay, I'll just find him one according to myself."

"Mind your own business."

Xu Youming was displeased with the reminder, and pulled him back to the room amidst Le Wuyan's laughter.
