Blade of Wind

Ah Ao was sulking at the Hall of Renzhong, and when I walked in, he didn't even lift his eyes.

"Still angry?"

When I walked up to Ah Ao, he simply turned around, so I leaned over to look at his face, "You're not handsome with a sullen face, show me a smile?"

"Ouyang Jie!" Ah Ao yelled heavily, pushed me away, and said, "Stop doing this."

I spread my hands and sat down beside him, "I just want to make you happy. Sulking is not good for your health. If you are still angry with me, you can beat or scold as you please."

Ao rolled my eyes, snorted, and didn't speak.

I patted the table and said, "Hey, I won't do anything, and you have an opinion. I want to do something, so you just leave me. What do you want? But let's talk about it first, if Don’t even think about taking my life back!”

Ah Ao looked at me sideways, frowned, but still didn't speak.

I sighed and said, "I also know that you will worry about me, but you are also aware of the current situation. There is not much I can do. I should try my best to see if I can improve..."

Ao raised his hand to interrupt me, saying: "Don't make excuses, you're just tired."

I shut up.

A Ao continued: "You are just tired of staying in the Falcon Palace, tired of the same daily life, tired of facing the same people every day. You just want to leave!" A Ao stopped here, using a Looking at me with complex eyes mixed with anger, sadness and guilt, he clearly had something to say in his heart, but he didn't continue.

I clicked my lips and said, "You really understand me. That's right, I really don't want to stay here, and I don't want to kill demons when I go out. Whether the people in Fangguo live or die is none of my business. I just want to It’s just a trip to the mountains and rivers to see handsome guys. That’s what you think, right?”

Ao was stunned for a moment, pursed his lips, and said nothing.

I reached out and grabbed his collar, pulled him over, looked him in the eyes, and slowly said word by word: "Ouyang Ao, you are the one who handed over this country to me! If you don't even believe me, we will Let’s die together as soon as possible! To avoid being beheaded with some inexplicable excuses!”

Ah Ao didn't struggle or resist, and after a while he said softly: "I don't believe you..."

I raised my eyebrows, "Then what are you angry about?"

Ao was quiet for a while before saying: "I'm angry with myself. In the end, no matter where I am, I'm just a selfish and useless guy."

I let go, stretched out my hand and patted his face, and said, "Don't feel sorry for yourself here. When I'm not around, the court proceedings are your business. If you feel sorry for me, work hard, and it's best to be alone as soon as possible." . Then I can leave all the annoying things to you."

Ao frowned, "Hey, who would want to throw all the government affairs to Qilin?"

"Yes." I said, "Lianji Kingdom. All affairs are handled by Lian Lin, and King Lian just grows apples in the backyard. Isn't this nothing going on for decades? If you don't believe me, I'll take you to see it some other day."

Ah Ao seemed to be a little dumbfounded, "Why does this happen every time I want to tell you something serious?"

I spread my hands and said, "Because serious talk is often boring, and serious nonsense is even more boring. What's there to say?"

Ao frowned, and said nothing.

So in the afternoon I started picking people from the Imperial Army.

The military discipline of the imperial army is very good.At least when I hung up the banner of "Death Squad" drawn by myself, no one from the officers to the soldiers had any strange expressions.

"Very good." I said while pointing to the big flag waving in the wind, "Everyone knows these words, and the special operations team I want to pick is literally. Everyone stayed in the Imperial Army for so long For a long time, I must have seen how powerful the demons are. This time to exterminate the demons, the chances of death are very high, so I still hope that the principle of everyone is voluntary. Whoever wants to go, please raise your hand."

No one moved.

The corners of my eyes are twitching, is it because everyone is afraid of death, or is my prestige too low?

So I said again: "That's another way to say it. If you don't want to go, please take a step back."

Still no one moved.

...............

"Is it because you don't understand what I said, or are you all wooden people?" I jumped off the high platform in anger, reached out and grabbed the face of the soldier closest to me, and pulled it to both sides.

This person's face was deformed by me, but he still looked ahead calmly and didn't say a word.

The commander of the imperial army smoothed things over and said: "My lord, please calm down. They have absolutely no intention of committing disobedience. It's just that they have never heard such an order before, so I don't know how to respond..."

"That's because your daily military training is too rigid!" I snorted and interrupted him.

He quickly knelt down and said, "My lord, please forgive me."

"Forget it, the top priority now is to set up my Death Squad." I said, "I'll leave it to you to choose the candidates. Choose fifty people for me. They must be young and strong, and those who are not concerned by their parents and wives. It’s best to have a skill. I’ll come here tomorrow morning for inspection.”

The commander of the forbidden army saluted and responded.

I turn and leave.

Honestly I have some regrets, or maybe I really should have gone alone.I really didn't think that bringing fifty logs of wood would be of any help in slaying demons, let alone fifty logs that couldn't understand human words at all, or just didn't want to understand my words.

I'm starting to miss back in Isle of Greed, when those were the real demon-killing special ops.If Ah Tian and Zangma were there, not to mention a mere demon from Fangguo, even if they were to wipe out the Yellow Sea, it would be nothing to worry about!

The thought stopped me.

Or Ao was right.

Even if I'm not really tired of everything here, at least I'm missing it.

I miss my neighbor's stupid brother, I miss the fox with slender eyebrows, I miss the onmyoji with a sly smile, I miss all kinds of old and young masters, and all kinds of detectives, phantom thieves, death hunters...

as well as……

that person……

I leaned against the pillars in the corridor, looked at the surging sea of ​​clouds below, and let out a long sigh!

That bastard who was born by the sword and died by the sword with gold and silver demon pupils!
