Chapter Eighty-Eight: On the Profession of King

Yu Ziying's long crow has black black hair that can be seen and naked, the ends of his hair are tied with tasseled dumbbells, and his white little face is cold and numb.

She wore a black and red pattern solemn and long-sleeved robe with long sleeves suitable for men and women, and in the night, the fine velvet and dark purple trimmed soft hair melted and softened the contours of her small face, and she looked more and more petite and weak, as if she was too weak to be able to wear clothes.

As soon as she turned her head, her eyes were like cold stars, like black beads soaked in silver mercury, black and white.

Qing Luan, who stepped into the green tent, couldn't help but look stunned, his eyes followed the fine flames blown by the wind, flickering dark and bright, flickering brightly and burning.

"What happened?"

The green cloth curtain behind him was stirred again, Sang Kunyi had a cold and serious face, paced out from behind Qingluan, and walked straight to Yu Ziying, his eyes casually glanced at the brazier of the three-pronged iron frame, where there was originally a low round felt seat covered with fur, with a table in the middle and the sides facing downward, which could be used to sit and decorate.

But right now, the table overturned and collapsed.

Sang Kunyi only glanced around, and there was no intention to pursue it, because he saw that he had done it in vain.

"Master, I'll clean it up again." Yu Ziying bowed her head at Sang Kunyi, without quibbling or explaining, and directly admitted.

Sang Kunyi saw that her mind did not belong, and he wanted to open his mouth to say something, but Yu Guang looked at the young man in the Taoist robe who was standing silently on the side, and changed his words, and said, "Disciple, this is the eldest disciple of the Seven Purple Star Crown Elders of the Qingxu Palace. ”

Hearing the nomination, the young man who looked too baby-faced, but behaved like an old man in the twilight, stepped forward.

He smiled slightly at Yu Ziying first, then folded his palms, his forehead reached the back of his hands, and his wide sleeves hung down, and he bowed deeply towards her: "Qingluan, the eldest disciple of the Seven Purple Star Crown Elders of the Qingxu Palace, have seen ...... Miss Yu. ”

In the Taoist metaphysical world, kneeling is an insult to the gods, so the general greetings are greeted in a very simple or casual way, only the elders and Venerable will greet them in a more formal way such as gestures, gestures, and deep bows.

Regarding the respectful attitude of Qing Luan, the elder disciple of the Seven Stars Crown of the Qingxu Palace, at this moment, Sang Kunyi was slightly surprised.

This is a deep ...... It's too grand.

Yu Ziying did not avoid this, she received this gift, she glanced at Sang Kunyi, her face was difficult to distinguish in the flickering firelight, she only called softly: "Master." ”

Sang Kunyi stared and pursed his lips, knowing that she wanted to talk to this person alone, he glanced at her deeply, and after telling her earnestly, "It's not far outside for the teacher", he didn't stay and turned to leave.

When Sang Kunyi's footsteps were not visible behind his ears, Yu Ziying put his palms in his sleeves and raised his eyebrows, then he looked at Qingluan, who had been maintaining a bowing posture, and said, "I have never met, why do you make this big gift?" ”

"Although I have never met, but I have admired it for a long time, Miss Yu is a weak woman, and she bears the responsibility of the world's people, and she is the body of the king, and she can afford the gift of Qingluan...... In fact, Qingluan was also humiliated by the girl's 'unrefined ceremony', but because the head of Sang was here, he was quite taboo and retreated. The innocent young man in a cyan robe covered with jade tulle bowed his head obediently, and because he could not see his face, listening only to his calm and low voice, he would almost be mistaken for thinking that he was actually seventy or eighty.

Yu Ziying's words to him were like watching an excerpt and watching its changes, but he was not in it, and he was out of the situation.

"The king? On what basis do you decide that I am the 'king' of your mouth? ”

Qingluan raised his head, he seemed to like to laugh very much, the corners of his eyes were thin smile lines, but his smile did not seem to smile because of happiness, only the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned like a more approachable person, like the arc of a smile mask, a pair of eyes as soft as a March drizzle, not happy or sad looked at Yu Ziying.

Knowing that she didn't believe it, and seeing that she didn't think so, Qingluan smiled at the corner of his mouth, and spit out eight words lightly but solemnly: "The soul of another world, the body of heavenly punishment." ”

Yu Ziying's eyes darkened when she heard this.

For a while, the darkness like night gradually permeated into the green tent of Guapeng, the fine smoke curled, and the black shadows on the green curtain cloth were set off by the silence of the thick night outside the tent, like a pool of lake water on a windless day, and their shadows were stretched very long under the orange firelight.

"If you are a person punished by heaven, how can you become a king?"

For a long time, a sneer pierced the dead air.

For some reason, Qingluan breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Yu Ziying speak, although this "king" looks young, but his momentum is compelling, not to be underestimated.

"Those who can receive heavenly punishment are themselves exceptions between heaven and earth. Qingxu Palace's belief and Taoism, although the Mandate of Heaven conforms to the climate, but since he is a human being, he has benevolence, and the head and the master have mercy on the sorrow of the world, and are willing to do their best for Jiuzhou to take care of one or two, but in the end it is beyond the power, but the king is the soul of another world, although he is punished by the punishment of heaven, he can not be bound by the mandate of heaven, and can resist the destruction of the world......"

Qingluan's words are like thunder smashing people's hearts, and his eyes are clear: "If you are born, Jiuzhou will be born, and if you die, Jiuzhou will be destroyed." ”

Yu Ziying quietly listened to his explanation, in the end, she could be shocked to a limited extent, although her character was not as wanton as the Seven Sins, but the coldness of that heart was quite rare.

After all, she has exhausted herself from saving herself, so why not use her spare strength to be compassionate?

Yu Ziying once said to Zheng Yusen: If you are poor, you will help the world alone, she said that he belongs to the "poor" category, and in fact, she also belongs to the category of "poor" who have to take care of themselves.

She was born in Jiuzhou, and when she died, Jiuzhou was destroyed, these twelve big characters were too heartbreaking, and she only put the word "hehe" in the cold noodle stall.

"What do you think...... Or do your masters think that I alone can save the world? Yu Ziying's tone was not sarcastic, but the sentence itself was full of this meaning.

Qingluan looked at Yu Ziying's face that always maintained a calm and flat look, no matter how sensational he said, she still didn't even lift her eyelids for half a minute, and he understood...... This man's state of mind was more gloomy than he had imagined.

- It's so bad that it's hard to convince her to meet this kind of person who is almost soft and hard......

Qingluan sighed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face, he was very able to control his emotions, and when he wanted to laugh, others would not notice the other side of his heart that was hidden.

"No, the head of the family once said that the king has his own unique charm and characteristics, and there is no need to deliberately look for it, and when the time comes, the motivation to help her will automatically appear, and they will escort her with the most intimate and tacit attitude with her."

Yu Ziying's face was expressionless, her face was slightly raised, her black hair slid down her ears and slid down her thin shoulders, and the air seemed to overflow with a dark blue arc like a water pour, and her eyes condensed the flickering fireworks, and she thought of Wuxiang for the first time.

After the phaselessness, the faces that had appeared in her life crossed her mind one by one.

In the end, it was fixed on seven faces.

But when she thought about it, these seven people were all overbearing, and each of them was ambitious in politics, so let them join forces to save the world, and she always felt that this style of painting was about to collapse.

"Who are they?" Yu Ziying said.

Qingluan has been paying attention to Yu Ziying with all his heart, and the more he looks at him, the more he feels that she is like the black of the abyss, unable to touch its depth, and unable to distinguish its face.

For a moment he was fascinated by it, and he forgot about anything else, until he heard her calm and cold question, and he came back to his senses.

"About that...... Shu Qingluan also doesn't know, but according to the master, the king is the one who bears the calamity of heavenly punishment, which belongs to the darkness of yin and yang, and has been able to absorb and absorb since ancient times, which shows that most of the people who can help the king are people who bear the shackles of sin and the punishment of sin. ”

Can she sense it? The shackles of iniquity, the dark nature of the man......

It's not aspectless.

If you filter according to what he said, how can she fall into the intolerable situation of the world like her?

Qingluan saw that Yu Ziying's eyebrows were heavy, and while he pondered, he continued to look at her carefully, his eyes wandering, without any offensive look.

This face is ...... It's too comprehensive, it's too complicated, and it's hard for him to speculate on its good or bad for a while, but his appearance is top-notch, but such a top-notch appearance gives birth to a "hidden" atmosphere, and if it is not revealed, it is diving, like a drop of clear water thrown into the sea, and it is difficult to see the bright light of one ten-thousandth of its treasure-like face.

Such a contradictory and peculiar person makes him can't help but look at it again and again, as if he encounters a difficult problem of interest, and always wants to come to a conclusion or answer before he stops.

"Do you know about Cheyajo?" Yu Ziying raised her eyes and accurately captured Qingluan's gaze.

The eyes were too naked, too sharp, like eyes that could see through people's hearts, and when she looked at others, it was like looking through other people's souls, and it made people feel so frightened that they wanted to take a step back.

Qingluan subconsciously avoided her eyes, but in the next second, this instinctive retreat made him feel a kind of self-esteem frustrated, so he looked back at her casually, but at this time, Yu Ziying didn't look at him.

"The king is saying that the snake swallows the tail array? I know about it. For the first time, Qingluan had this feeling of not being able to swallow and not be angry, his temperament was actually not as soft and kind as he looked.

"What does this snake swallowing tail array have to do with your Qingxu Palace?" She doesn't go around in circles either, and asks questions directly to the core.

As if surprised by Yu Ziying's acuity, Qingluan was silent for a moment, pondering the extent to which it could be revealed, before saying: "This formation does have some relationship with my Qingxu Palace, so I waited until I went down the mountain to clean up the mess, but it was not my Qingxu Palace." ”

"This has something to do with immeasurable Daoists?"

Another question that was difficult for Qingluan to answer, he didn't know how much Yu Ziying knew inside details about what happened in Cheya City, but he could be sure that she was not ignorant.

Hearing her mention the Immeasurable Daoist, his eyebrows moved, and then he asked her question: "I don't know the king and the immeasurable Daoist...... But acquaintance? ”

He could faintly feel that Yu Ziying was a person who had cultivated mystic arts like him, but the "qi" on her body was too strange and unpredictable, he didn't know the depth, but he also knew that it must be much more powerful than him.

At such a young age, she learned a high-energy occult technique, even if she was amazingly talented, she must have been systematically studied and taught, and I heard her mention the immeasurable Taoist, could it be that she studied under the immeasurable Taoist?

He ...... It has something to do with me, but it's a pity that he is unrestrained by nature and often likes to travel all over the world, and he gets along too shortly...... "Yu Ziying's words seemed to be spit out after several turns in his mouth, although he still fooled people in the same way, but the amount of skill was several steps higher than when he said it to others.

She deliberately added a few details, such as "not fond of restraints", such as "love to travel all over the world", these are all words and phrases in the character of the immeasurable Taoist excavated from the lazy mouth, but they are enough to deal with the same people who are only one-sidedly acquainted.

Yu Ziying's appearance is accurate, this Qingluan thin eyebrows are sensitive and suspicious, his heart is full of overflowing, some words others have heard when the ear wind, but he likes to think more about a few up and down, people are worried, it is easy to worry, especially when he focuses on a person, her words and deeds, will be added with some other ingredients.

The more vague she spoke, the more certain he must have become.

She just wanted him to see her, and then confided more information to her.

"Oh, actually...... The immeasurable Taoist and our head are said to be the same ......" Speaking of this, he glanced at Yu Ziying quietly, and saw that her expression was as usual, as if he had already known, and he couldn't tell her intentions for a while, so he could only continue thoughtfully: "What can the king see in this snake swallowing tail array?" ”

"It's like a teacher...... Immeasurable Taoist handwriting. Yu Ziying frowned and said pretendly.

Yu Ziying's mistake in the word "teacher" was quickly covered up, but it was still captured by Qingluan.

Sure enough, this king is the apprentice of the immeasurable Daoist, thinking that the immeasurable Daoist, a demigod, can calculate the life trajectory of the king earlier than their Qingxu Palace, and the time of soul transfer, he must have taken it under his wing one step earlier, and gave him the scroll to teach him the mystic arts, laying a good foundation for the difficulties of his nine continents.

"It is indeed the work of the immeasurable Taoist, more than ten years have passed, and the details have been blurred, but it is said that the immeasurable Taoist was a person who was in love with him, and after discussing with the head of my family, he took advantage of the natural advantage of the spiral gallery to set up his gathering array together." Qingluan told Yu Ziying the truth very smoothly this time.

Sure enough, he did it, and he didn't guess wrong, but since he accepted the favor of others, how could he make this kind of killing chickens and eggs, and the gathering array is not the only one that damages the formation...... Unless it was that person who forced him to do this, and he was unwilling in his heart, he would first make a false accusation and then draw his salary.

Of course, this power should be one of the speculations, and the specific reason is still blind and touching.

But this thing...... Can it be related to the Yin Saint Clan?

"Do you know that this Jiuzhou disaster originated from Yin Sheng?" She asked directly.

Qingluan didn't hide it: "I know, this Burning World Nine Formation...... It is very poisonous, and we have scattered our disciples to search for the Nine Formations, but so far, we have only found three places......"

"Three? Have you found three formations? Yu Ziying glanced at him in surprise.

It's quite efficient.

Qingluan saw that Yu Ziying was interested, so he bowed his head and said: "It is difficult to break the formation of the Nine Turning Formations of the Burning World, but because the place where the formation is set up is extremely strict after selection and requirements, there are several traces to be found, one is in Wanqiu, one is in the Eastern Imperial Kingdom, and one is found in Yaze in the Northern Frontier Country......"

"Wanqiu." Yu Ziying narrowed her eyes and repeated the two words.

"Well, Wanqiu is not far from Cheya City, this Burning World Nine Formation is really vicious, every time you refine it, you have to flow a river of blood, Wanqiu is a remnant of the land, and now it has suffered a trauma that is difficult to recover, especially for some ethnic groups living there, belch." Qingluan rarely smiled, and sighed sadly.

When Qingluan mentioned the ethnic groups that lived there, Yu Ziying's heart jumped.

"The calamity and hatred they have suffered cannot be quelled unless they are paid by the blood of Yin Sheng." Yu Ziying's eyes were deep, and his tone was a little more cold, and he was heart-wrenching in this lonely and cold night.

Qingluan saw that Yu Ziying finally had the reaction he was expecting, so he took advantage of the iron and said, "I suspect that the incident in Cheya City this time was also done by Yin Sheng, and their intentions are really terrifying. ”

"How so?"

"Although the residents of the city all think that it was done by the people of the Central Plains, they don't think that at this time, there is any country that has the leisure to come to a small car to do such useless things." Qingluan shook his head.

"Then why do the people of Yin Sheng do these things?" Yu Ziying asked.

Qingluan pondered for a moment and said, "So...... That's what needs to be thoroughly investigated. ”

What is the benefit of this Cheyacheng to let Yin Sheng's people want to let them kill chickens and slaughter them with cattle knives?

"Ziying, are you done talking?"

At this time, Sang Kunyi's low inquiring voice came from outside the tent.

Yu Ziying stopped talking, knowing that the master was worried about her, she said to Qingluan: "That's the end of today." ”

Qingluan understood what she meant, and he smiled apologetically: "It's Qingluan who is anxious to disturb the king's rest so late, but before leaving, Qingluan still has one thing to confirm with the king......"

"You want to ask Qing'e about it?" Yu Ziying said.

Qingluan nodded with a serious expression: "Yes, Senior Sister has been missing for half a month, and there is a group of disciples who have disappeared with her, she came to find the king on the orders of the master, and it is impossible for her to disappear for some reason." ”

"She must have been more than lucky, Yin Sheng's people used the Qingxu Palace to assassinate me in her name." Since Qingxu Palace confessed to her, Yu Ziying no longer concealed it and told the truth.

Qingluan's expression froze when he heard this, and he was silent for a long time.

"Qingluan...... Farewell. ”

After he gave Yu Ziying a deep look, he walked heavily and turned to leave.

After Qingluan left, Sang Kunyi lifted the curtain and came in with a wet and cold air.

He looked at Yu Ziying, his always cold and handsome expression was hidden, he hesitated slightly, and said, "Lazy Emperor, but...... Left? ”

What happened before, Zheng Yusen had taken the initiative to confess his mistake to him, and it was only because of him that he understood why he had not seen Exotic and others before.

He wasn't worried about them, and even if they could stay away from his apprentices, he was happy to see them, he was afraid that Yu Ziying would be ...... I feel uncomfortable, after all, she can take people with her all the way, she must have her intentions and ideas, and now people are angry because of the disciples of the Chongxu faction......

Yu Ziying had something in her heart, so she avoided answering this topic directly.

"Master, I'm leaving for Wanqiu tomorrow."

Sang Kunyi's face was stunned for a moment, and he immediately reacted: "That is the teacher and you......"

Yu Ziying interrupted in a clear voice: "Master, you have something to do, you don't need to run around for me." ”

Seeing Yu Ziying's resolute attitude, Sang Kunyi's black eyes were like stars in Qingtan, and he sighed quietly: "Ziying, you have grown to the point where it is difficult for you to reach out as a teacher...... The teacher will not restrain you, because the teacher knows that you are a person with ideas, but the teacher wants you to know that the Chongxuan faction will always be your backing. ”

"yes, I know." Yu Ziying bowed his head heavily, and his expression was cautious.

Sang Kunyi looked at her serious appearance, her heart softened, and she patted her shoulder unaccustomed to it: "Tonight, you can rest here." ”

"Hmm. Master, I'm a matter of the Teng Snake Royal Family...... Did you know that before you adopted me? Yu Ziying suddenly remembered something.

Sang Kunyi didn't expect her to ask this question suddenly, he said: "Actually, the matter of your adoption by the Yuwen family was prepared by your stepfather early in the morning, and the teacher opposed it, and there are some hidden dangers and future troubles of being exposed for this kind of impersonation, and at that time he told the teacher, your true identity, and after he died, the teacher had to follow his arrangement." ”

When Yu Ziying heard this, he finally realized why Sang Kunyi left his predecessor Yuwen Ziying in Yuwen's house instead of taking it away, it turned out that all this was arranged by the old beggar, but why did the old beggar have to let the former body stay in Yuwen's house?

Seeing that Yu Ziying was still thinking, Sang Kunyi didn't bother her, and said "Rest early" and walked out of the tent.

——

And just after Sang Kunyi left, Yu Ziying raised her face, extinguished the brazier with a flick of her sleeves, and the cold wind swept through the green cloth curtain.

------Off topic------

No Liability Spoof Theatre:

Master: Apprentice, is the lazy emperor gone?

Apprentices don't care: let's go, I'm not rare.

So the master left happily.

After the master left, the apprentice hurriedly extinguished the fire, and after rushing out of the camp, he looked around: Hey, where did the person go, my hostage is still in his hands, he is going to lose it, why am I looking for Yin Sheng's base! Wipe!
