Chapter 666: For the sake of fellow teachers, pull a brother
In the depths of the valley, with a loud sound of breaking the sky, white electric light bloomed. Ji Ya struggled to support, she was able to take Huangfu Yan's Vermilion Bird Arrow and Qinglong Arrow head-on, but she was still unable to resist the White Tiger Arrow, which is no wonder, after all, among the four spirits, the White Tiger is the main kill, and its own attack power is stronger than the average. Ji Ya insisted on receiving the arrow head-on, so it was impossible for Huangfu Yan to retract his strength.
However, Ji Ya is not blindly arrogant, she probably knows where her limit is, so although this arrow is difficult, there is no substantial damage.
Huangfu Yan also exclaimed: "Miss Ji is so cultivated, she is under her service." "In the past battles, there were only those who could pick up his Qixia Divine Arrow, and that was also rare, not to mention Ji Ya's age.
Ji Ya exhaled: "No, I'm still far away." ”
Huangfu Yan shook his head and said, "Practicing is not something that can be achieved overnight, sometimes it's not bad to slow down." ”
"I understand, thank you. Ji Ya took a breath: "What about General Chunyu, is he still in the stone temple?"
Huangfu Yan looked at the depths of Wulong Ditch: "He is always like this, in fact, we can't forget His Royal Highness the Holy Maiden, but he is too ......"
Ji Ya has been living in Wulonggou for half a month, eating and living with the villagers every day, and occasionally fighting against Huangfu Yan. Different from Huangfu Yan, Chun Yu Wuji, as a big boss, in addition to daily trivialities, his favorite thing is to stare at the stone temple in the deepest part of Wulonggou in a daze. This stone temple is built simply, and it is not dedicated to any gods, but to worship the bright armor and winged boots left by the saint Leng Yue Guwei. Chun Yu Wuji often sees things and thinks about people here, thinking about the time when the original enthusiastic people are united and paid by each other.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little silent, Huangfu Yan said, "I still have some things to deal with, do you want Miss Ji to go back together?"
Ji Ya shook her head: "No, I'll go back later." ”
"Oh well. "It's not far from the village, and Huangfu Yan didn't worry about Ji Ya, so he left first.
Ji Ya came to the nearby river alone to squat down and wash her hands, in the past half a month, she has become familiar with the people in the village, and she also knows a lot of things here, and now she is staying at the house of a little girl named Jasmine. There are only two mothers and daughters in the family, and the mother is busy with the work in her hands all day long, and Jasmine, who has never had any playmates, chases after Ji Ya, and her sister screams and frolicks.
From her mouth, she learned that neither she nor her mother had a surname, and that her father had died early and had no surname. In addition to being prisoners of war, selling themselves into slavery, and degrading slaves for their crimes, the slaves of the Great Zhou Dynasty were most likely to be inherited as slaves. As far as little Jasmine is concerned, his family's history of slavery is even longer than the founding history of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
In the past, the information she could get was always word of mouth or sage articles, and the embellished language and obscure teachings seemed to explain everything, but it was as if nothing was said.
Master Lin Yue said that the truth has always been there, but some people take it out and use it with a little modification, so many times, it is not that what some people say is very reasonable, but they are reading from the book, so after listening to them, you will always have the feeling of sudden enlightenment, but when you think about it afterwards, it feels the same as not saying it.
Why was little Jasmine born with such a life? It's impossible to say, the problems are almost endless, but they have never really been solved. Ji Ya didn't know what to do, so she practiced swordsmanship by the river for a while and went back.
As soon as she arrived at the place where she was staying, Xiao Jasmine ran out: "Sister, look, today I and Daqiang went to pick fruits, but it was sweet." Ji Ya touched her little head, little boys usually don't play with these girls, unless it's picking fruit or touching fish, there must always be someone to clean up the 'results' on the side.
Looking at this carefree little girl, it was hard to imagine that a few years ago, when the holy warriors had just entered the village, this girl looked at these strangers with bruised faces and swollen limbs, and even if it was friendly approach, she would have screamed in surprise. The reason for the injury turned out to be the steward who managed the farm, bullying her mother in the house, and little Jasmine could only wait outside, because she was hungry and called her mother, and was beaten like this by the disheveled steward.
Ji Ya, who had just heard about this, was in a heavy mood, holding the big sword tightly, compared with them, is she really more unlucky? Ji Ya has been playing with Jasmine in addition to practicing, which is also the reason why Jasmine sticks to her, after all, her mother still has a lot of work to do, and she can't always accompany her daughter.
played with the little girl for a while, and after twilight, ordinary people had fun with men and women in addition to eating and sleeping. Ji Ya learned a lot of entertainment methods from her master Lin Yue, such as playing backgammon with Xiao Jasmine all night on the first night, making the little girl so funny, and the next day she went to show off with her friends.
Half a month has passed, and Ji Ya still has to go to Mingjian Mountain Villa and the Lingshan Sect, now that she has known her current limit after several fights, it is time to leave. Originally, she didn't call her away when she cried and pulled, but her mother persuaded the little girl, she knew that Ji Ya was a big man in the rivers and lakes, how could she have been with the little girl.
As soon as the morning dawned, Ji Ya first practiced as usual, and then prepared to leave separately with Chun Yu Wuji and Huangfu Yan, and as soon as she arrived at the door of the lobby, she heard Chun Yu Wuji shouting inside: "That traitor wants to defect to us, but there is no door." The Holy Sect has taken refuge in others, and now it is thrown away as a rag, and it reminds me of the old friendship. ”
But I heard Huangfu Yan say: "After all, everyone is teaching together, how can you see death and not save it?"
Just as he was saying that Ji Ya had arrived at the door, they didn't have anyone behind their backs on what they were talking about, and Ji Ya was a little embarrassed when she saw that the two seemed to be arguing about something: "Sorry, I'm here to say goodbye." ”
Huangfu Yan got up and said, "Miss Ji is leaving?" To be honest, they have gotten along well with Ji Ya in the past half a month, and they don't want to keep her all the time, but the friendship of the landlord still has to be exhausted.
Ji Ya nodded: "Yes, I wanted to go to Mingjian Villa, but what difficulties did the two of you encounter?" Just now I vaguely heard the words traitor, not to save when I see death, etc., it seems that there is something important, the two of them have a good sense, and thanks to their care and guidance for half a month, Ji Ya asked, if it is okay, I will help.
Seeing that Chun Yu Wuji was not very happy, Huangfu Yan changed the topic: "It's not a big deal, it's just that a brother from the same religion wants to come to take refuge, so it's just a little disagreement." ”
"Brothers of the same religion?" The two of them worship the Holy Maiden, which Ji Ya knows, so the other party is too.
Huangfu Yan said: "Speaking of which, this person's name is not small, that is, Geng Chang, the wind chasing god who killed the Duke of Qianguo back then. ”
"Qianguo Gong!?" Ji Ya exclaimed. This name is too familiar to her, because Qianguo Gong is her father's younger brother and her own uncle. Although I have only seen a few times, and then I was sealed to the field early, and in the end, I only heard that it was the Holy Maiden who made a rebellion and died in the war, and I don't know any other causes and consequences, after all, Ji Ya is just a princess in the deep palace, or the most unpopular one.
Ji Ya immediately said: "Can you tell me a good story? Qianguo Gong is the king's younger brother." How did he die?"
Although Huangfu Yan wondered why Ji Ya was suddenly interested in this, it was not a secret, so he said: "That's the case, Geng Chang was originally a famous family, and his father was Geng Chong, the general of Zhengdong. The Duke of Qianguo is the younger brother of the current king, but he has a hobby...... Like women......" Speaking of this, he couldn't help but pause, after all, Ji Ya is not old and a girl, but he skipped this section when she didn't react.
At that time, Geng Chang was just a seven or eight-year-old child. The Geng family has two children, two sisters and brothers. Geng Chong's wife, Guo Shi, was both talented and beautiful, and was taken by the Qianguo Gong who was such a good woman. But since getting married, Guo has been a noblewoman in a deep house with peace of mind, raising children and running a family, and will never show up unless it is a major festival celebration.
At that time, Geng Chang's sister had already reached the end of the year, so Qianguo Gong asked to marry his sister and became Geng Chang's brother-in-law, but no one in the family expected that this son-in-law would go to his mother-in-law from the beginning. Later, he took this opportunity to come to the door often, and after a long time, the Geng family was unprepared, and finally called him successful, while Geng Chong was out on business, he took his wife to visit the door on the grounds of visiting. own mother-in-law.
That Guo is also a person of Zhenlie, how can he bear this humiliation, and immediately committed suicide, Geng Chang's sister learned that this incident was like a bolt from the blue, and fought and cursed with Qianguo Gong, but Qianguo Gong killed him by mistake under the push, and then fled from Geng's house in a hurry.
After Geng Chong returned home and knew what was going on, he was immediately angry and picked up the guy and killed the residence of the Duke of Qianguo, the Duke of Qianguo got the news and slipped back to the palace early, Geng Chong killed in the Mansion of the Duke of Qianguo, and then drove the horse to chase and kill, storming the palace, and the generals in the other armies persuaded him to no avail, and finally shot him in front of the palace.
At this time, it was a family ugly, naturally it could not be publicized, so it was determined that Geng Chong was rebelling, killing Geng's family, the young Geng Chang was rescued by the loyal servants of the family, and since then he has been in the rivers and lakes, and although the court tried his best to conceal what the Qianguo Gong did, the people below may not know, but the upper officials and magnates can not know, although it is not about themselves, but this matter is too rebellious and ethical, naturally everyone despises and spurns, and the Moyunhai in the north of Xinjiang also sent a letter to ask for the guilt, seeing that the matter is too big, the king can only send the Qianguo Gong far away.
And Geng Chang, who lived in the rivers and lakes, not only practiced family martial arts, but also had the honor to worship a wandering disciple who had learned a thunder spirit immortal technique.
Ji Ya was dumbfounded, she thought that the royal family was deaf at best, and the main problems in the whole world were slavery, war, and those nobles who eroded the foundation of the country. Now she knows that the sordid of the royal family is beyond her imagination. Why? Why do the princes and princesses of the small countries of the South China Sea not hesitate to suffer scars and fight for their lives? And the royal family of the Great Zhou not only did not have the slightest idea of contributing to the country, but also kept destroying the place where they depended, why was there war outside? Why were the princes able to divide the place and worship the Holy Maiden to make trouble, why did there be an army of millions of sectarians and hundreds of thousands of people in one night?
The more Ji Ya thought about it, the more angry he became and smashed the wooden table next to him with a palm, Huangfu Yan only thought that she was angry, so he didn't want to continue: "Later, at the end of the Holy Sect, he was defeated by the spear Lin Yue, but fortunately, he saved his life, it stands to reason that he could not throw himself into the court, nor would he throw himself into the court, at this time he met a person, the plain pacification envoy appointed by the court, Ying Rui. ”
Ji Ya heard what happened, and her heart set off a storm, it turned out that her master was also in the story?
Generally speaking, during the war, the war is longer and the situation is serious. An area will be carved out near the battlefield, and even the entire county will be designated as a war zone. In the war zone, official positions will be temporarily set up, the highest military position is the envoy, and the highest civilian position is the pacification envoy, and when the imperial court does not issue an order to remove the state of the war zone, they are the highest decision-makers in the region. In order to prevent the situation from deteriorating after the war, the pacification envoy will be given some discretionary powers, and the pacification envoy will also serve as a solicitor and a pacification envoy.
Ji Ya has not heard the name of this person along the way, Ying Rui, as the envoy of the plain town, controlled the four states of Cang, Tang, Kang, and Ba under the rule of the plain county, which was originally the base camp of the Holy Maiden Sect, and it was already a scorched earth. In the past two or three years, after his governance, he has barely gotten rid of the words 'hell on earth', but he is still the poorer one among the princes.
After being defeated by Lin Yue, Geng Chang was not killed, but led his subordinates to escape, and has been fighting against Ying Rui, the pacification envoy of the Plains, from time to time slaughtering powerful local nobles. Chun Yu Wuji and Huangfu Yan both knew that they were playing double reeds. After all, Ying Rui is the person of the fourth prince, if the fourth prince is here, he is still safe, but the capital is in a fire, and the two rivals for the throne are all gone, how can Ying Rui, as the military force of the fourth prince hanging alone, not be feared? In order to fear this situation, Winray made up a strong opponent for himself.
It is also by relying on Geng Chang, the 'remnant of the Demon Sect', that Ying Rui can easily solve the local gentry clan under his rule. At first, he just followed the four princes to have a future, and then he led the troops independently to have more power, after the death of the fourth prince was frightened and wanted to try his best to protect himself, now the soldiers, horses, money, food and territory are available, Ying Rui's heart is no longer want to be a pacification envoy, there are so many princes in the world, why can't others become him? So there are rumors that he wrote a letter to ask for the canonization of the Marquis of Qi.
In this way, if he has a grudge against the court, Geng Chang, who has always been regarded by him as a 'black hand' to deal with miscellaneous matters, naturally wants to part ways with him. Originally, Geng Chang had 2,000 soldiers and horses, and after occupying the mountain as the king, he accepted the fleeing people, and his subordinates also started families, so there were more non-combatants, and these two thousand soldiers and horses and thousands of people obviously couldn't survive in the territory of the future Qihou, so they thought of the Wulonggou of the same sect, and for the sake of the past feelings, they pulled the brothers.
It's just that Chun Yu Wuji has a grudge against his act of defecting to the enemy and apostasy, Huangfu Yan doesn't care, Geng Chang himself also joined in order to avenge his personal revenge, and secondly, he is not considered to have defected to the enemy, although he is secretly helping to pacify Ying Rui, in fact, he still worships the remnants of the Holy Maiden Sect, which can also be seen as a way of cooperation between black and white.
After understanding what happened, Ji Ya suddenly became interested in this Jiangmen, who killed her uncle but lost to her master, and she wanted to see the most real side of the world.
