When Tang Ming walked in from outside the door, the long knife in his hand was still dripping with blood.

Drop by drop, it fell to the ground, as if it were dripping into the hearts of everyone.

Tsing Yi, who was on both sides of the discrete, unconsciously lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the blade in the hand of the comer.

It was as if one more glance at the cold light on this knife would take their lives.

"Your Majesty, the sinner has been beheaded, and Tang Ming returned the knife. ”

Brush!

With Tang Ming's words, the sound of a long knife entering the sheath sounded.

The moment the blood dissipated, this long knife, which once belonged to Old Man Li and was given to Zhang Chongshan by Tang Ming, was put into the sheath.

It wasn't until the sword light completely dissipated that everyone inside and outside the hall finally let out a long breath.

"It's hard work. ”

Xiao Yu bowed slightly, and looked at Tang Ming with a little gratitude.

Only they, the people closest to Tang Ming, will understand how painful Tang Ming is in his heart at this moment.

In the final analysis, those are all Old Man Li's own nephews.

It is precisely because of this that if someone else were to be executed, I am afraid that some of the brothers in the Tanma camp would find it difficult to accept.

Only Tang Ming, who used to be the pioneer leader, can make everyone convinced.

"Zhang Chongshan, are you guilty?"

Xiao Yu's gaze converged, and once again turned into cold indifference.

"The last will be convicted!"

Zhang Chongshan knelt on one knee, clenched his fists and bowed his head.

"As a meritorious man, you can be exempted from capital crimes, but you cannot escape living crimes, and you will be punished to remove the sword in your hand and store it on the Yingling Mausoleum outside the city, and you can only retrieve it after three years. ”

In a whisper, Xiaoyu has already made a decision.

When Zhang Chongshan heard this, his body couldn't help but tremble, and finally responded heavily, "The last general, receive the punishment!"

This knife, where does he still have face hanging on his waist now.

The trial is finally over.

When Xiao Yu drank away from the others, she became the little girl who followed behind Tang Ming again.

"Brother Tang Ming, where are we going next?"

She asked softly with wide eyes.

Zhang Chongshan and the others watched Xiaoyu's sudden change, and almost didn't come back to their senses.

Why is the human emperor who was still high just now turned into such a cute little girl.

If they hadn't seen this change with their own eyes, I'm afraid they would have thought that these were two completely different girls.

"Zhang Chongshan wants to hang up the knife, and we just right, let's go to the Yingling Tomb in the north and visit those old guys. ”

Tang Ming smiled lightly, with a look of memory in his eyes, and drank the wine in the cup.

I don't know if those old guys sleep well in this northern land.

The Imperial Tomb is located on the Wangbei Mountain, thirty miles north of Wangbei City.

Different from the ordinary Yingling, this Yingling Mausoleum, which is made of loess bricks, has reached the border of the empire as long as it is seventy or eighty miles further north.

Look at the north city, guard the north frontier, Yingling Tower, protect the north.

These twelve words are the words that every resident of Wangbei City has kept in mind.

They will not forget that there was once a group of people who, under the siege of the army, raided with surprise soldiers, and exchanged their lives for their stability.

When Tang Ming and the others climbed to the top of the mountain, the mountain breeze was already a little cool.

"Old man Li, brothers, come and see who is coming to see you. ”

Zhang Chongshan walked at the forefront, took off the saber at his waist, and leaned against the tablet of Yingling.

"You keep this knife for me first, and after three years, I will get it back. ”

"For the sake of you guarding the knife for me, I will burn you more money today, and you will be full of food and drink below!"

It seems to be talking to himself, and it is like a friend by his side, laughing and playing with them.

Zhang Chongshan, Dumb Man and Xiao Lizi set up the incense and candle altar and let the paper money fly all over the sky.

At this moment, there is no position, no life and death, only the good brothers who were born and died back then are by their side.

The mountain wind grew stronger and stronger, and the whole mountain forest rustled, as if someone was whispering in the wind.

Tang Ming was alone, and instead of looking at Yingling, he turned around and looked further north to the north.

It was the battlefield where they had fought.

The memories buried in the depths of my mind are like a river bursting its banks, surging in an instant.

That old guy, knowing that on the battlefield, abandoning the knife is death.

But Old Man Li still did not hesitate to throw the knife at his feet.

When the long knife came out of his hand, in the eyes of Old Man Li, there was only firmness and determination, and there was no fear.

That steadfastness is a sign of trust in the brothers and an expectation for the future.

"Ants are still stealing life, but you are willing to sacrifice your lives for victory. ”

"If this is your way, where is my word?"

Muttering to himself, Tang Ming looked up at the sky, and the essence flashed in his originally empty eyes.

No longer confused, no longer confused, only firm forward.

At this moment, his Tao is already in his heart.

Thundered!

In the clear sky, a thunderclap suddenly sounded, and the birds and beasts in the forest were all dancing wildly.

"It's amazing, Tang Xiaozi's comprehension is a little crazy. ”

Xiong Wushuang looked at the thunder in the sky and muttered to himself meaningfully.

Some Taos are not just walking, even if you think about it, you may die without a place to be buried.

"Brother Tang, it's going to rain, let's go back. ”

In the midst of the rolling thunder, the simple sacrifice had been completed, and Xiao Yu walked over from the side and reminded softly.

If the memories are too long and difficult to get out of, it is better to stop in moderation.

"Xiaoyu, you go back to the city, I'll go alone for the rest of the road. ”

Tang Ming didn't move, looked at the deep mountains and dense forests in the distance, and slowly spoke.

"What?"

Xiao Yu's smile suddenly stiffened on her face, and tears flashed in her puzzled eyes.

"Brother Tang, don't you want Xiaoyu to accompany you?"

No matter how noble she is in the court, in front of Tang Ming, she will always be that little jade.

Xiong Wushuang seemed to sense something, poured a sip of wine, and stood next to him without saying a word.

"Xiaoyu, the road that starts from the front is the path that belongs to the monks, and it is not the road that belongs to you. ”

Tang Ming rarely did not comfort him, but admonished in a deep voice.

Monks and ordinary people are, after all, two different worlds.

The Emperor of Men is the emperor of the mortal world, and if he sets foot in the world of monks, he is the first to break that unwritten rule.

"Brother Tang, then you, when will you come back?"

For some reason, Xiao Yu had an inexplicable feeling in her heart, maybe Tang Ming would leave for a long time if he left this time.

The reason for not keeping it anymore is because Xiaoyu understands that Tang Ming's decision does not need others to say anything.

However, this does not mean that her heart will not be sad.

"I'll be back when I'm done at the end of the road. ”

Tang Ming chuckled and patted Xiaoyu's shoulder dotingly.

At this moment, he is still the brother Tang on the beach, and she is just the little jade who is a fart.

Xiaoyu's heart was full of discomfort and reluctance, but there was still a smile on her face.

She didn't want to let Tang Ming leave with her crying at the end of the parting.

Tang Ming bowed slightly, and his gaze swept over the others.

Zhang Chongshan, Dumb and Xiao Lizi still straightened their waists as they did in the Tanma Camp and watched their leaders leave.

"Tang boy, the road in your heart is not easy to walk. ”

Xiong Wushuang threw the wine jug in his hand over and told him seriously.

"Don't worry, I'll wait for you in front, and I'll catch up when I'm chic. ”

Tang Ming laughed out loud and drank all the wine in the pot.

The moment the wine jug was returned, Tang Ming turned into a streamer and turned to leave.

From this moment on, he is no longer an emperor, just the monk Tang Ming who fights with the sky!

For him now, whether it is the tempering of the mind or the Dao, he has reached a peak state, and he only needs a large amount of spiritual energy to continue to break through to a higher realm.

In the mortal world, it is difficult to find such a place.

Shout!

In the silent mountain forest, a blood-colored streamer shuttled by.

As he traveled north, he became farther and farther away from the mortal world, and gradually stepped into the realm of monks.

Unconsciously, the aura in the mountains and forests is getting stronger and stronger, and from time to time, there will be a trace of the fragrance of old medicine.

"Happy!"

Tang Ming stopped, greedily devouring the surrounding aura.

In the mundane world, he had not experienced this feeling of devouring the aura around him for a long time.

As his breath fluctuated, a whirlwind of aura around him swirled into every cell of his body.

"It's no wonder that those big sects want to occupy a good place with abundant spiritual energy, just the baptism of spiritual energy in the air is enough to make mortals live for one or two hundred years. ”

Tang Ming sighed lightly and recovered from the devouring state.

Just now, it was only because of the feeling he hadn't felt for a long time that he stopped here and devoured it.

With his current realm of transformation and peaking, the concentration of aura in this place is still too thin to help him advance to the next small realm.

When he recovered, his eyes swept around, and he couldn't help frowning slightly.

"It's strange, this place should be within the scope of the Medicine King Valley, why don't you see the disciples guarding the mountain patrolling. ”

Inexplicably, Tang Ming felt that something was wrong.

In fact, just now when he walked all the way to this place, he found that the scenery around him seemed to have a strange feeling.

The Yaowang Valley is not out of the world, and the herbs around the valley are fragrant, and you can see centuries-old medicines everywhere.

But now, except for the occasional feeling of some old medicine hidden in the soil of the tree roots, I can't feel the kind of breath that belongs to the Medicine King Valley at all.

Could it be that the descriptions of Tianzong before were all bragging?

"Something is wrong, there are traces of a battle here!"

Tang Ming spread his divine thoughts, and the scenery within a radius of a hundred miles instantly came to mind.

Whether it is birds and beasts flying in the sky, or insects and ants hidden in the soil, they are all clearly displayed.

Although it has been raining heavily, in many places around, you can feel the remnants of different spiritual energy, and the traces left by the energy.

Tang Ming probed as he walked, and it didn't take long for him to feel that not far from the northeast, there were many fierce beasts gathering and roaring.

Some of the fierce beasts have even opened their spiritual wisdom and reached the innate realm.

Tang Ming didn't take this to heart, the innate fierce beast was in front of him, but it could be killed with a snap of his fingers.

However, just as he was about to continue to go deeper into the Medicine King Valley, the aura that suddenly appeared in his divine thoughts made him stop suddenly.

This is, the breath of an acquaintance.
