Chapter XVII: Sacrifice
Jing Xie sat in a daze in his chair, even if he was alone, there was always something to entertain himself. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info but when he was in his own hands, he was only as dull as a dying old man, not confused about the road ahead, but many things in the past were worth recalling, because he didn't seem to have lost anything in the past thirty years.
"Master, your nephew and I have settled it properly. Antelope's voice came, and the others pushed the door open.
"What did I tell you earlier?" Jing Xie was slightly angry, "support each other with him, and wait until I finish dealing with this side of the matter before making the next move." When you do that, I have to explain it. ”
Qiu Ling didn't say a word
Jing Xie suddenly said, "If I have any accident and you have nowhere to go, just stay by Che'er's side, it will definitely be of great help to him." ”
Qiu Ling shouted, "If the person you are dealing with has anything to do with the strange fire you saw under the lonely city at that time, I can be your help!
Jing Xie got up and spun around in front of Qiu Ling a few times with open arms, "Do you see what's coming?"
"Nope. ”
"Then you won't be able to help me. ”
Qiu Ling had no choice but to nod silently, he knew that Jing Xie was extraordinary and should know about this matter, so he no longer asked about Jing Xie's decision in this matter. He stood for a moment and then asked, "How do you arrange the king's power?"
Jing Xie said: "He is different from you, his idea is: the grace of saving lives is the same as the grace of saving lives, all he can do is not help the prison capital." ”
Qiu Ling sighed: "What a stupid person! People regard my life as a mustard, but they still have to remember his life-saving grace!"
Jing Xie shook his head and said, "The benefactor will not use 'kindness' as a shackle, but it is a pity that although I saved his life, I let him burn and leave scars all over his body." On that day, I saved not two people, but only one and a half. He never had a chance to find his good friend again, and I just felt guilty. ”
"In that case, master, you can let go of your hands and feet to fight with them! I will take care of Jing Che! If you have an accident, Jing Che will be my new master!"
Qiu Ling left, Jing Xie was stunned again, the emptiness in front of him seemed to repeat what he had experienced in the past, it was twenty years ago, he and more than a dozen people were called by the famous Lou Xingque in the rivers and lakes to come to a room similar to this house, the surname Lou always likes to be late, waiting for him, someone first gossiped with others, and gradually everyone forgot the purpose of this time, gossiping. At that time, Canghui's hair was not completely white, and the mask he was wearing was different from the one I saw him wearing recently, and he happened to be sitting next to him, chatting with him about the food in a restaurant in Zhongzhou, when suddenly the door was pushed open......
"Why are you late again?"
"Oh, did we have an appointment before?" Qi Wuwei, who broke in, was confused.
Jing Xie reluctantly put on a smiling face, "No, what did you come to me for?
Qi Wuwei brought a chair and sat down and said, "What can I gain, but by chance, I went to Jingfu and walked around, and I learned a lot about your family." It should be the seniors who should have a serious harvest. You found Jing Shuiyi, and you were also shocked by the 'evil'. The harvest should be much more than mine. Pulling up the heart refining leaf, Qi Wuwei leaned back in his chair as if he was a little comfortable, "Moreover, I can't just think about what I have gained. The sword is about to start, and all the people who pay attention to them can almost see what they will do on this day, time is getting more and more urgent, and he is not the only one who has ghost ideas in the dark, I must first take some pragmatic measures to guard against it, before I dare to face the enemy at hand with peace of mind!"
In the aura of refining the heart leaf, Jing Xie became more and more energetic, and he asked, "Who is the other force you are referring to?"
Qi Wuwei said: "It is the Fengyu Mountain Fox Demon who had an accident with the mediocre before, at this moment, his wings are full again, and it is very likely that he will do something to this place in Zhongzhou on the day of the sword duel, and I have been paying attention to this matter before I began to intervene in the affairs of the martial arts and the prison capital and the lonely city." ”
After Jing Xie heard this, Fang remembered that there was such a thing, but Qi Wuwei said it very confidently, and every sentence was a definite conclusion or made him suspicious, "How do you know these things?"
"The fox demon was resurrected, all thanks to a demon girl who made the same spell with him, and his two lives must go to the Yellow Spring together otherwise he will not die or die. But what he thought in his heart was not to hide the demon girl at all, but the demon girl was now under the control of someone Qi. Qi Wuwei raised his eyebrows, very proud.
"Oh, how do you control it?
Qi Wuwei stood up in fright, "Eh! senior...... Don't make fun of me! Looking at my sloppy appearance, how can I have the slightest potential to attract the opposite sex?"
Jing Xie said solemnly: "I am reminding you that if it is not my race, its heart will be different, and you must not lose your guard against the use of this demon girl." And for the actions that the entire fox demon force may have, I want to hear how you can do it alone. ”
Qi Wuwei said: "That fox demon is consciously avoiding the effect of the same fate curse, I only know that he made a decision to act on the day of the sword decision, and the specific plan was all handed over to his subordinates to formulate, but the demon's means are nothing more than outwitting the martial arts." The road of martial arts, whether it can be done or not, as early as twenty years ago, a human powerhouse had already given him the answer. And outwitting, what demons are best at is to infiltrate the crowd by confusing people's hearts. Originally, in Fengyu Mountain, the demon general had a throne, which not only retained a wisp of remnant soul after the destruction of his body, but also won many advantages for his comeback, just because that throne was also the number one magic weapon in the world to confuse people's hearts. ”
Qi Wuwei paused when he said this, looked at Jing Xie, and the expression on his face seemed to say, "I've talked enough, you should have guessed it!" Jing Xie said: "You want to use your hands and feet on the throne to prevent the infiltration of the fox demon, right?" Qi Wuwei's face changed, as if he thought he was talking too broadly, "Qi Mou has never secretly cultivated his own power, but this matter is urgent, I want to gather a group of people who are strong enough, and ...... It is impossible for someone who can afford me to help me take the throne. So I can only use outsiders who are interested in this throne to help me. ”
The respect and admiration on Jing Xie's face were difficult to suppress, Qi Wuwei had indeed exerted the advantages of his control to the extent that he might not be able to use it himself, he knew that he could no longer point out Qi Wuwei, so he could only admonish with concern: "Note that they may not be 'their own people', you have to get out at a critical time!"
"No...... Qi will not get out easily, they have a deep relationship with me, and there may be a big plan for the world brewing, but ...... I won't run away, I'll face it head-on, because I have already escaped, it was two years ago......" Qi Wuwei expressed his desire to tell his experience, only hoping that Jing Xie would fulfill his wish. But Jing Xie is precarious at the moment, and he has no intention of letting him tell the story.
"I trust you, you're going to really get everything in order. Jing Xie said with relief, "Do you know, when I see you, I think of an old man, who is very, very similar to you, the same chivalrous courage, the same resourcefulness, the same withdrawn and arrogant, the same heroic posture!"
Qi Wuwei stared at his eyes and felt that something was wrong the more he listened, and when he heard "heroic", he couldn't help but put down the dry tobacco pouch, put his hand into his thick beard, and scratched his chin. He asked timidly, "Senior, you...... Who are you talking about?"
Jing Xie raised his head slightly and didn't know where to look, but Qi Wuwei knew that he was thinking about that person, and he may already have that person's figure in his mind, because his eyes were full of worship and nostalgia, "Lou Xingque, the father of the proud, the initiator of the third-rate fifteen heroes, is also the human powerhouse who killed the demon general with one move twenty years ago. As he spoke, Qi Yan's figure fighting in Fengyu Mountain only flashed and impacted Qi Wuwei's self-confessed "wide knowledge", such a strong Qi Yan was unexpectedly defeated in the hands of the demon general, and such a strong demon general was defeated in the hands of this "proud father" It is also so understatement.
It turns out that the so-called "human powerhouses" he knows are only in words, and he has not seen them, just like gods who have not shown miracles. But as soon as the words "Father of the Proud" came out, although Qi Wuwei had never seen him, although the demon general who defeated Qi Yan had a lot of experience than the demon general who was defeated, the living example was so close that he could still remember this shocking feeling in his heart. He originally felt that the name "proud" was far away enough, but the old bachelor, looking back at the names of some people he was familiar with had a lot to do with "proud", he didn't feel how far away the proud was, and the "father of the proud" was not as high as a god, untouchable, which was the source of his shock.
This shock came quickly, and after leaving an indelible impression forever, it went quickly, and Qi Wuwei was a little overwhelmed, and even forgot what Jing Xie had said about him just now.
"Senior, your body ......" Qi Wuwei diverted the topic with the most clumsy means.
"Don't worry. Jing Xie said.
"The matter of that Qi has been explained, and he has left. ”
......
"Friend, Yan Yun is here!" Yan Yun stepped into the hall, smiling, extremely relaxed.
"Haha! Xu Yuanjue got up to greet him, "Sit down and rest, and tell me what you've gained recently!"
Yan Yun's smile didn't change, but he didn't move, as if he hadn't heard what Xu Yuanjue said. Xu Yuanjue was stunned for a moment, he seemed to notice something, but he still forced a smile and acted as the master, "What's the matter? You are also old? Can't hear me?" Yan Yun still turned a blind eye.
Xu Yuanjue was about to continue talking, but saw Yan Yun say first: "What are you doing? Avoid noise, scum!" The corners of Xu Yuanjue's mouth couldn't stop twitching, and his whole body could barely hold the shelf, Yan Yun's gaze fell on him, but it seemed to penetrate him, shining on the empty wall, waiting for the real owner of this place to come.
"I wanted you to find out about the Imperial Robe for me, but it seems like this...... I seem to have miscalculated. The "shadow" flashed out from behind Xu Yuanjue, and the same voice said more emotional words. When this identity returned to the ontology, "Xu Yuanjue" stood there as if he had lost his soul, because he no longer needed to speak for others, and when he put on this shelf, he was at a loss.
"Was it him from the beginning, or was it ......," Yan Yun asked, pointing to the man who had lost his soul.
"Does it matter? Not to mention whether you notice it or not, but to say that you still value friendship?"
"What kind of experience did you have that made you hide behind the scenes? Could it be that you think you can escape the investigation of people with intentions?" Yan Yun had no choice but to put aside his feelings in his words.
"Does it matter? If I can get it done, no one will ask me about my experience, and if I can't, why should I talk to people in exchange for sympathy? Your question at this showdown is really a waste of my time!" In the words, it is the meanness that the agent has never revealed, but it seems that such a man is flesh and blood, and his joys, sorrows, and sorrows are hidden under the layers of wrapped cloth and the mask, but they are so distinct, so familiar.
"Let me ask! I know that you can only know what is enough to make you turn against me after listening to the words of the imperial robe, although I am too lazy to deal with you, but I can't understand why you, with your Yan Yun, would be willing to trust such an imposing stranger. The real Xu Yuanjue asked, he only cared about the present, and the past feelings seemed to be all abandoned in the moment of turning his face, because most of those feelings belonged to the substitutes who had lost their souls.
"Because of the monk I saw here that day, I saw that he was not used to it, so I became suspicious. Yan Yun replied simply.
"Hah, is it because of that woman, Lian Huangxi, you really care about her!"
Yan Yun did not intend to respond to this sentence.
"One last question," Xu Yuanjue said, "But the courage given to you by the royal robe guest makes you dare to come here to do this!" After speaking, his arms shook, and the majestic internal force tilted around, and the light and shadow around his body changed shape.
"He's only responsible for telling me the truth, I'm responsible for reminding you, and ......" Yan Yun smiled, laughing extremely easily, "Tell the truth! This earth-shattering news will be named as the god and my Yan Yun! Prepare to become a common enemy of martial arts, friend! You will be my first gift to the righteous path of martial arts!hahahaha!" Yan Yun's laughter became more and more flamboyant, as if he had unlimited confidence.
The power in his body gathered between his hands, full of Xu Yuanjue's anger and urgently needed to vent. But seeing that the agent's eyes regained their brilliance, his mission as "Xu Yuanjue" has ended, but with his martial arts, he can still be called a sharp sword of Xu Yuanjue, but he will be mistaken, and he will kill Yan Yun before Xu Yuanjue.
Yan Yun roared wildly: "Dream! I will die to you?" The agent had already rushed in front of him, but Yan Yun disappeared out of thin air, this palm seemed to be in the air, and this escape technique also turned a confrontation into a gorgeous performance with Yan Yun himself as the protagonist.
The agent looked at the emptiness of his palm, looked at Xu Yuanjue and smiled meaningfully. Xu Yuanjue's strength had no choice but to vent on the low table in front of him and smash it.
......
"What are you doing?" Yan Yun's voice suddenly came, causing Lian Huang to tremble and hit his head on the head of the bed.
Lian Huang said angrily: "Which tendon is wrong with you? What are you bothering me with this early morning?" She looked at the door, and there was a shadow lying on the door, his face was all printed on the window paper, and he was staring into the door with wide eyes.
"Come out quickly, I have something to say, give you some time to get dressed. Yan Yun said.
Lian Huangxi got up and walked towards the door, saying as he walked: "These **** are always uneasy in their hearts, and they don't take off their coats when they sleep." When he arrived at the door, Jing Shuiyi's face was still there, "Get out of the way!" Lian Huangxi said impatiently.
Yan Yun smiled, "That's smart...... I ......" he said this, but his breath became more and more unsteady, and before he finished speaking, suddenly a mouthful of blood sprayed on his face printed on the window paper.
"Ahh Lian Huangxi hurriedly took a few steps forward to support Yan Yun.
"Don't come close...... I!" Yan Yun suddenly fell on his back, "Stained with blood, it will make passers-by suspicious, Zhongzhou people, far away from sword disputes, their noses are very ......." The strength in Yan Yun's words became weaker and weaker, and gradually it was only like whispering in a dream.
Lian Huangxi was so frightened that she hurriedly asked, "Who hurt you? What are you doing here again?"
"Quick...... Run......" Yan Yun opened his mouth, only exhaling these two words with all his might.
Lian Huangxi hurriedly dragged Yan Yun up, "It's too late! It's too late! I'll go with you, I'll take you to see the doctor!" But seeing that Yan Yun suddenly pushed her away from nowhere, a force suddenly pushed her away, and yelled at her: "How do you want to make things difficult for a dying person? Before I die, I will let you down because I care about your life! I am no longer saved! You run quickly! You will know the ins and outs of this! You will know soon!"
Lian Huangxi ran out with all her might, she didn't want to go back, and she no longer thought about what it was, and she didn't know who else in Zhongzhou could let her take refuge, so she only insisted on the idea of "running".
"Back to the light......" Yan Yun's eyes gradually blurred, his eyelids became heavier and heavier, he couldn't help but close his eyes in his mind, but forced the corners of his mouth to rise, "It's really interesting......
......
On the bustling street, Qi Wuwei's mind had drifted out of the clouds, ignoring all the hustle and bustle, and he didn't even care about every step taken by his feet.
"Qi Wuwei. Suddenly, he heard a person calling from behind, Qi Wuwei looked back, it turned out to be a royal robe, and when his thoughts returned, he found himself in a remote corner of the city.
Qi Wuwei smiled slightly and said, "Oh? It's you again, you came to me once, and it made me tremble once." It's like the teacher checking the schoolchildren's homework. ”
This is a kind and apt analogy, but it is too much to be afraid. I want to check, just looking at it from a distance is enough to see it clearly, and when I come in person, there must be some actual action. The royal robe said.
Qi Wuwei's heartbeat was slightly faster, but the nervousness on his face was still not revealed, "What, do you cure my crime?" After he finished speaking, the royal robe guest walked towards him step by step, and between the ups and downs of his figure, Qi Wuwei even felt that the imperial robe guest was nodding for a moment, and clearly felt that the heartbeat was getting more and more intense, as if it was about to fly out of his throat.
But the royal robe gently patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, it's just a pointer." The robe smiled meaningfully and slowly walked back to where he had been, "I know that you know everything you can know, but you don't need a chance. An opportunity to eradicate those who have dissent in Zhongzhou. There are some expectations in the expression of the emperor's robe, and this expectation must be aimed at Qi Wuwei.
Qi Wuwei had no intention of satisfying his expectations, and said: "This opportunity doesn't matter, anyway, I have already prepared for the biggest threat, if the sword is duel, if I dare to take advantage of the chaos, I have already taken precautions, I can add chaos to chaos, and I am afraid that I will not be able to prevent him?"
"I'm afraid you've underestimated the strength of the demon general. The royal robe said, "You must not despise him because he was defeated by the strong men of the human race, not to mention that he also has outsiders behind him to help." ”
Qi Wuwei thought, from the conclusion of the same fate spell, to the encirclement and suppression of Feng Yushan, and then to Qi Yan's defeat, all the conditions for the resurrection of the demon general are a matter of course, if there is really any guy who arranges scheduling to promote this matter, then it is indeed too terrifying, he thought about it and asked: "The outsider contributed to the resurrection of the demon general?"
The robed guest nodded.
"What the hell is he trying to do?"
The royal robe shook his head: "The heavenly opportunity can be glimpsed, and it cannot be spread in vain." ”
Qi Wuwei was convinced that he was still suspicious, "When I first returned to Zhongzhou, I was about to pay more attention to him, but you led me to pay attention to the prison capital forces infiltrated in the martial arts in Zhongzhou, and at this moment, how can the demon general not be taken lightly, are you deliberately playing tricks on me?"
The royal robe guest looked innocent, "No, at the beginning, didn't we talk about the 'opportunity'?"
“......”
The Imperial Robe continued: "For me, for the demon general, you are too fragile alone, although you have a mysterious background, but you know in your heart that your origin will not help you much, I will not repeat this. Zhongzhou Martial Arts is the force that you must use to deal with the demon general, if it is infiltrated by the prison...... So I want you to start solving the problem at hand. ”
Once again, a thick sense of powerlessness enveloped Qi Wuwei, his legs trembled, his head was dizzy, and he began to completely doubt, doubt himself, and doubt what he had done in the past period. He could only smile bitterly and said to the imperial robe: "Tell me about your 'opportunity'......"
"One simple thing," said the robe, "we need a man, a man of sufficient fame in the eyes of the world, to inform him of everything, and by his mouth to the world." At that point, everything fell into place. ”
"A person of fame, who is righteous and worthy of this great responsibility?" Qi Wuwei asked.
"You know it. ”
The arrogant image rushed into Qi Wuwei's mind, "Ahhh
The royal robe said: "The only uncontrollable thing is that I have leaked too much to him, too many things that even you don't know, I am afraid that it will stimulate the justice in his heart to the maximum, to the extent that no one can control it." ”
Qi Wuwei suddenly asserted with an expressionless face: "He is dead." ”
The royal robe guest said with some regret: "With your understanding of him, this should be a prophecy, but it's a pity that I also instructed him to do things that can be described as martial arts righteousness after this matter, such as using disguise to find out the remnants of people with different intentions or something." He was anxious to do something for justice. So ......"
"So he's gone to Xu Yuanjue for a showdown now, right?"
The royal robe guest smiled and said, "So...... You have to hurry up, otherwise, you will have to have an empty nest, please!"
