Chapter 18: Entering Beijing
"Little princess, princess, she is gone. Before leaving, she didn't see you to send it off, and she seemed a little lost. At that time, Pei Yunfeng was sent away, and He Shun was also present, but Pei Zonghao refused to say goodbye to his second sister.
"Really?" Pei Zonghao's voice was full of gloom.
"Hmm. Lao He nodded and replied.
"Hey, I don't know when we'll see each other again. Tiannan Snow Land and our Yunchuan, one in the north, one in the south, the journey here is tens of thousands of miles, the second sister she goes, hey. Pei Zonghao sighed again and again, and he was reluctant to give up on the second sister in his heart.
"Little prince, you don't have to be sad, maybe in two years, the princess can't help but feel homesick, and she will come back to see it. Lao He persuaded Pei Zonghao to say.
"Two years? That's a long time. A breeze blew, Pei Zonghao fell into contemplation again, and Lao He on the side didn't make a sound to disturb, and took out a purple bead from his arms, "Little prince, this is the princess she asked me to give to you." She said that this thing will be of more use to you in the future. ”
Looking at the amethyst bead in Lao He's hand, Pei Zonghao fell into sadness again for a while.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the prince asked you to go to the barracks to discuss matters. At this moment, a voice broke the silence and desolation.
"Tell me to go to the barracks?"
"Yes. ”
"Tell your father, 'I'm not going.' In the future, I will not participate in major events in the army. I just want to devote myself to practicing martial arts and cultivating the Tao. Pei Zonghao said to the visitor.
"Yes, my subordinates obey. After the man finished speaking, he left and went back to his life.
"Little prince, you are born with the talent to lead, why..."
Pei Zonghao was silent for a long time, "Uncle He, from the death of my mother this time, I have seen a truth. Strength is the magic weapon that shocks the world and overwhelms the demons. If, I now have the Xuan Netherworld that my master said, presumably my mother will not die at all, and the demon dragon will not dare to come to Fan Yunchuan City at all. ”
"So, I decide! I want to devote myself to cultivating, and when my cultivation improves in the future, I will definitely avenge my mother!" Pei Zonghao clenched his fists, his eyes full of hatred.
"Little prince, as the saying goes, people can't be resurrected after death, don't be blinded by hatred and be in a hurry!" Lao He was worried that Pei Zonghao would go astray and wanted to enlighten him.
"Uncle He, don't worry, I won't. After Pei Zonghao answered Lao He, he began to practice martial arts again.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The punch was like a thunderbolt, and the bones of the body also made a crisp sound, this is the standard of the bone training realm, Pei Zonghao This is really entering the bone training realm and becoming a martial artist.
At night, looking at the starry sky, in the distant galaxy, there is always a star that always shines so brightly.
"Mother, is that you?"
"Is there really reincarnation in this world? If so, where are you now after being reborn?" The night wind struck, blowing the placket of the clothes and swaying with the wind, on the top of Canglan Mountain, on a bare rock, Pei Zonghao looked at the starry sky alone.
"Hao'er, are you thinking about the princess?" At this time, a voice came from behind Pei Zonghao, breaking this sad artistic conception.
When Pei Zonghao heard this, he turned around slowly, "Master, why are you here." ”
"I didn't see you in the cave just now, so I think you're definitely here again. ”
"Why, can't you let go of the princess's death in your heart?" For so many days, Pei Zonghao has been depressed, which makes Feng Lingzi very worried.
"Master, how can this be easily put down. ”
"Hao'er, life in the world, birth, old age, sickness and death, life and death, this is inevitable, I hope you can see it. Presumably, if the princess were alive, she wouldn't want you to be silent in sorrow all day long. ”
"It's okay, Master, it'll be fine after a while. ”
"Oh well. Feng Lingzi turned around and wanted to leave, but suddenly thought of something, turned around and said to Pei Zonghao: "Hao'er, I heard that the prince wants to send you to Beijing this time." Your Majesty canonized you as the crown prince this time, this Dayu may be in charge of the country in the future, the prince means to let you go to Beijing to listen to the government, so that you can take charge of the country in the future. ”
"Oh, when did it happen?" asked Pei Zonghao.
"Just a few days ago, the prince invited me to the study and told me in person. ”
"When is the time?" Pei Zonghao continued.
"I don't know yet, I guess it's just a few days. ”
"Well, got it. After Pei Zonghao answered, his voice became even more gloomy.
"Hao'er, last time you chased and killed the Purple Gold Sky Shaking Ape, I saw that you could fly with a sword, and I had checked the spiritual root for you before. The spiritual root in your body is mistaken for an innate pseudo-spiritual root, but you can fly with a sword, which means that the teacher is mistaken. ”
"Oh, what kind of spiritual root is in my body? ”
"According to the records of this sect, there are only so many kinds of spiritual roots, and the spiritual roots in your body are not within the scope of the spiritual roots recorded in this sect, and I don't know what kind of spiritual roots are teachers. Facing the spiritual root in Pei Zonghao's body, Feng Lingzi couldn't figure it out for a while.
"Don't worry about it for now, it's definitely a good thing, you can fly with your sword. This means that you can cast spells. Now your cultivation has reached the eleventh level of spirit disciples, right?"
"Yes, Master. ”
"Okay, just these two days, prepare some books for the teacher for you, you take them with you when you go to Beijing, and practice by yourself when you go to the capital. ”
"Remember! Cultivate, but you must not be in a hurry!" Feng Lingzi added at the end.
"Master, don't worry, Hao'er understands in his heart. ”
"Okay, then you can stay for a while, remember to go back early, you can't fall behind in your cultivation. After Feng Lingzi finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Pei Zonghao alone, and continued to look up at the starry sky.
The next day, side by side in the palace, in the study.
"Hao'er, when you enter Beijing this time, you must pay attention to your words and deeds, and don't use force casually. In Yujing City, everything must be done in accordance with the law, and don't be reckless. This time he sent Pei Zonghao to Beijing, Pei Chengfang was most afraid that the events of the year would be repeated, and he told Pei Zonghao again and again.
"Dad, I'm leaving, and now you're the only one left in this palace. ”
Hearing this, Pei Chengfang couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in his heart, a month ago, this was a haven of happiness. But now, he is alone.
"Okay, dad is not a child, you are not here, can I still cry. ”
"Also, how many times have I said that I am called Father. At this time, Pei Chengfang's image of an iron-blooded tough guy has not changed.
Pei Zonghao knew that his father's appearance at this time was pretending, and since his mother's death, the green silk on his father's head had turned half white. No matter how strong a person is, his heart cannot be made of stones.
"Yes, Father. Pei Zonghao didn't have any more children, so he bowed deeply to his father, and then left the study and the palace.
Looking at the back of his son turning away, Pei Chengfang kept watching for a long time. I don't know how long it took, Pei Chengfang finally came back to his senses, "Stinky boy, is it really like this?"
Side by side with the palace, the gate.
"Uncle He, you all go back. I'm going to Beijing this time, and I can go alone. ”
"Little prince, this Yunchuan is tens of thousands of miles away from Yujing City. In the deep mountains along the way, there are not only demon beasts entrenched, but there are also big demons with high cultivation in many places!"
"Besides, when Dayu founded the country. Although after the founding of the People's Republic of China, all the evil sects in the territory were encircled and suppressed, but the crooked demons and evil sects were extremely viable! I heard that many evil sects have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain in recent years, and they have come to the fore. The imperial court has been tight in the past few years, and they don't have the energy to clean them up, and they are now rampant!"
"Little Lord, you have no us along the way, what if you encounter groups of people in the evil path?" Hearing that Pei Zonghao didn't let the guards follow, Lao He instantly became anxious.
"Uncle He, after the last war, what kind of wind and waves do you think will sweep me away?" Hearing Pei Zonghao's words, Lao He was speechless for a while, not knowing how to answer.
"Uncle He, in the last battle, we suffered heavy losses. Now that my father is around him, it is the time to use people, so you still stay, follow my father, and solve his worries and problems. ”
"But!"
"Okay, Uncle He, listen to me, you don't have to worry too much, at the end of next year, I will come back to see you. Besides, isn't it still there? Pei Zonghao was referring to the blood-red python that stayed in the palace and was unwilling to leave.
Since the giant python came to the palace, he refused to leave after being killed, and these days he has eaten and drunk in the palace, and he has to devour a whole pig every day. This is thanks to the fact that the palace is a wealthy family, and if this goods were put in ordinary people's homes, they would have swallowed up their surplus food for two years. The current situation of this product is more than 10 million times better than the poor mountains and bad waters in the desolate jungle in the past, and the whole body is fatter than before.
"Okay, Uncle He, I'm leaving, take care of my father for me. After Pei Zonghao finished speaking, he rode away on the big black horse alone.
"Hey! this!" Lao He slapped the long knife hanging on his waist with his right hand, speechless.
"Lord Qi, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince sent all his entourage back and went to Beijing alone. Outside the study door, a voice came.
"Okay, got it. ”
"Yes, the subordinates retired. ”
Pei Zonghao rode a big black horse on the way, the big black horse ran at full speed, whether it was a pedestrian or a trader on the official road, or a person on horseback, he only saw a black shadow flying by in his eyes, and he couldn't see his face clearly.
The big black horse galloped non-stop, and the trees on the left and right quickly disappeared in sight. On this first day, Pei Zonghao can be said to have traveled thousands of miles a day.
The sun had already set in the sky, and when night fell, dark clouds covered the moon and stars in the sky, and the ground was pitch black, so that he could no longer hurry, Pei Zonghao stopped his journey.
"Hoohoo!" Pei Zonghao pulled the reins, and after a few scattered horses' hooves, Da Hei stopped, snorted, and began to bury his head in eating the weeds on the side of the road.
"Wow!" The red python that had been following closely in the sky also fell from the sky, and the surrounding trees were rattling with the wind blowing with it.
"It seems that this is all there is to it today, so let's stop and camp. Xiaohong, you go around and look around to see if there are any demons and monsters. By the way, get some game, remember, take it back with your tail!" I don't know if it's sad and crazy, Pei Zonghao changed his state some time ago today, and his temperament has become more active than before.
