Fang Hatshui never thought that he would be cut off by someone on this day, and when fear permeated his heart, even the physical pain was blocked. There was no doubt that the fear in his heart was more unbearable than the pain in his body. It was his own waist knife that cut his flesh, and how could the delicate-looking hand holding the knife be so vicious?

The knife slipped off Fang Hatshui's arm and with a light twist, a piece of bloody flesh was sliced. And at this time, Fang Hatshui, who was in extreme fear, even thought about why that hateful young monk would choose his arm to drop the knife instead of somewhere else.

Comparatively, there is more meat on the buttocks and thighs.

But he couldn't walk with his thighs and buttocks cut, and it was hard for him to lift the pole with his shoulders or back.

Even the knife was so purposeful, how cold and calm this young monk's heart was.

The flesh left Fang Hatshui's body, and he covered his mouth with his other hand and didn't dare to wail. Now he realized that what the two monks had said before was true and not a joke, and he finally felt how close death was to him. When he was in that small county, as a head catcher, he didn't see a corpse. But he was accustomed to the death of others, and when he faced the threat of death, he was clearly unprepared.

"I'm not going to run, I'm not going to!"

Fang Hatshui squeezed out these words from between his teeth, and his forehead was already covered with sweat.

"Very well, let's go find water. If you're not tired you can find some more food because we're all hungry. ”

Chenya commanded lightly, and then returned to the place where he had rested before and sat down with the piece of meat. He looked at the bloody piece of meat in his hand, and frowned to throw it away.

"Do you know why I want you to take this Sui man with you?"

The old monk asked.

Chenya said: "Because it is more convenient for someone to show his face, when it is determined which Sui pursuers have run to the front, you can abandon this useless person, now he is just a tool." ”

"No"

The old monk smiled and said, "What are you holding in your hand?" ”

"It's human flesh"

"It's also food"

The old monk said indifferently: "When facing a crisis, you may not be able to find food for a long time. And bring a living demon with you, at least you can eat for many days. ”

When these words came out of the mouth of the kind-eyed old monk, even Chenya trembled with fright. He had never found that Shizun was such a ruthless person, and in his impression, when Shizun was walking, he would stop when he encountered an ant and let the ant crawl over first, lest he step on it. But now, the words that came out of Shizun's mouth were stabbed in Chenya's heart like a cold knife.

"It's ...... Human flesh"

"No, it's demon meat."

"Master, but you said before that this Sui person has no demon in his heart, so he is still a human being and not a demon."

"When you cut off this meat, the demonic nature in his heart is already alive."

The old monk looked at the direction in which Fang Hatshui disappeared and said, "If you feel it carefully, you will feel the anger and rage in that Sui man's heart now. If he has the chance, he will kill you by any means. This is the demonic nature, and when you cut off another piece of his flesh, he will become a demon completely. ”

"However, if the disciple doesn't cut his flesh, won't he fall into the devil?"

"I don't know"

The old monk shook his head and said, "But what you have to remember is that the Sui people are all demons. Therefore, killing Sui people, and even eating Sui people, is to subdue demons and eliminate demons. Let go of the obsession in your heart, and you will realize more truth and goodness. If there were no Sui people in the world, no demons, and all of them were my Buddhist believers, how peaceful and happy would the world be? ”

"Disciple understood."

Chenya nodded, recalling the old monk's words and realized that it really made sense. If the disciples of Buddhism all take the elimination of demons as their own responsibility, then there is no place in this world where demons are born. And if there is no Great Sui, the world of Buddhism will inevitably be full of truth and goodness.

"Master, will we delay things if we walk back slowly like this? Didn't you say that it was possible for the Sui people to use troops against the Empire? If we rush back and tell the news to Möngke Khan and make him ready, then the Sui people's conspiracy will not succeed. ”

"Where's your white tiger?"

The old monk asked.

Chenya was stunned for a moment, and then said with some disappointment: "Stay outside Chang'an City, in the forest that captured the Sui people." But the disciple had not summoned it before, and he did not know where it had gone. ”

"It's going back."

The old monk smiled and said, "I have already written down the news that I should bring back and hid it on the white tiger." It knows the way back, and it's certainly faster than you and I can go. ”

"Master's Calculation"

Dust bowed his head.

"So let's go slowly, because if we don't go back, those Sui people who are chasing after us will think that the news has not been leaked. And the faster you rush back, the more Sui people's plans will be advanced. Just let Baihu go back and spread the news, and you and I will simply stay in Da Sui for a few more days. ”

"Master, who did you say before that great demon who traveled west?"

"I don't know"

The old monk slowly closed his eyes and looked western: "Don't worry, if even Senior Brother Shiyuan can't stop him, Senior Brother Da Zizai will make a move, if Senior Brother Da Zi can't stop him, King Ming will naturally make a move." I can't think of anyone in this world who can't be suppressed. ”

A mile away, Fang Hatshui, who found a stream, hesitated for a long time, but did not dare to escape after all. He knew that with his martial arts, if he couldn't run far, he would be captured again. And now, in addition to carefully dealing with those two monks, he could only wait for the pursuers of the Great Sui to find them as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, he quietly tore off one of his clothes and tied it to a small tree by the stream.

If I had a major cultivation, I would have eaten those two demon monks alive!

So he wished.

……

……

When Fang Xie returned to the Sanjin Hou Mansion, it was already dark, and His Majesty asked him again in the dome. The original concocted lie was told again, but Fang Xie knew that His Majesty might not really believe it. After all, he has a few bodyguards with good cultivation around him, and it is impossible for a poor disciple to have such strength.

In Fang Jie's narrative, he is the child of a very wealthy merchant. His father was killed by robbers on the way to Fangu to do business, and several of his family's bodyguards desperately rescued him. Fearing reprisals, he joined the Fangu Border Army. This is the miracle of the twenty-one battles that were later made, and the miracle of the current nine gates.

Before he left the vault, the emperor gave him the title of Lord of the Right Attendant. This is not an official position, nor is it a prominent title, and the children of the children of the family are almost all born with such a title. But there is no doubt that with such a title, Fang Jie's identity has changed.

Far away, Fang Xie saw the lights in front of the Sanjin Houfu.

He was amazed for a moment, and was startled at the thought of the girl's trouble. He thought that the palace had come down with a will, and Wu Yinyu would have to enter the palace, so he would put up the lights. So he quickened his pace, but when he reached the door, he realized that it was a false alarm.

This meeting turned out to be specially arranged by Sanjin Hou to celebrate him.

Fang Xie had to be a little moved, Wu Yiyi was the second noble person he met after he arrived in Chang'an, the first was Mr. Zhuo, it is undeniable that Wu Yiyi helped Fang Xie the most.

Walking into the Hou Mansion, every subordinate greeted him with a sincere smile. Fang Xie liked the feeling, making him feel like he was back home.

When he walked into the living room, he saw Wu Yiyi with a smile on his face.

There are also Shen tilting fans, Mu Xiaowaist, big dogs, unicorns, and wine-colored wealth, but I didn't see the delicate little girl Wu Yinyu. Fang Xie guessed that the little girl must still be angry with her father, so she didn't care. Facing everyone's smiles, Fang Xie was dumbfounded for a moment and didn't know what to say first.

"Congratulations!"

The fat man greeted him first, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Master Fang, the first person in the Great Sui in a hundred years, I don't know what auspicious words to congratulate such a festive thing." ”

Fang Xie looked at his outstretched hand, scratched his hair in embarrassment, and said, "As soon as I entered the door, everyone in the house was saying congratulations, and all the silver I was carrying on my body was gone. ”

The wine color Caibi was embarrassed to withdraw his hand, and said with a smile that it was okay, okay, his own family.

Everyone laughed, and Wu Yi pointed to the table that was already full of wine and food, and said, "Come, sit down, and have a few more drinks tonight no matter what." 1. Celebrate that you have been appreciated by Your Majesty and enter the Martial Arts Academy as the first name. Second, celebrate my discernment, and bet on the treasure when you didn't make a fortune. ”

Fang Xie smiled: "Why do I feel a little weak-hearted? ”

"Very fake"

Wu Yi sat down, poured a glass of wine for Fang with his own hands, and said, "Before I congratulate you on winning the championship today, there is something I must tell you first...... I'm going to leave early tomorrow morning, and you'll live in this house first. In the afternoon, Yinyu had already set off to return to Qingle Mountain, and this courtyard was about to be handed over to you to take care of. ”

"You're going out of Beijing?"

Fang Xie asked in surprise.

Wu Yi nodded and said, "Your Majesty welcomes you on such a big occasion today, haven't you guessed what it means?" ”

"Guessed something...... I am afraid that His Majesty will announce the use of foreign troops in the near future. ”

"That's right, so I'm leaving the imperial capital."

Wu Yi paused and said, "There is something that doesn't matter if you tell you now, Your Majesty began to prepare for the Western Expedition a long time ago. In order to hide it from others, all the weapons, armor, grain, grass and equipment used in the western expedition were transported to the northwest by our goods all over the world. Not only that, but the elite soldiers transferred from all over the country were also quietly transported away with our fleet of goods that traveled all over the world. Yang Kai, the king of Xujun, had already set off for the northwest many days ago, and at this time, I, the boss of the world, also had to go to the northwest to dispatch. ”

Fang Xie was stunned for a moment, and then he understood how important the status of Sanjin Hou in the imperial court was in His Majesty's heart. Such an important matter, His Majesty was relieved to hand it over to a trading house. It can be seen that His Majesty's trust in Wu Yiyi is far greater than his trust in most officials in the imperial court.

"I don't know now how thick a leg I had."

Fang Xie sighed with emotion: "The person who earns the silver of the imperial court is the most powerful businessman." ”

"Stupid!"

Wu Yiyi scolded, seemingly a little disappointed by Fang Jie's reaction. But he didn't continue on this topic, but talked about Fang Jie's entry into the Martial Arts Academy. Fang Xie didn't care about the meaning behind Wu Yiyi's stupid sentence, because he didn't think about it carefully, so he was surprised when he learned the truth later. On weekdays, Fang Xie might have thought about it for a while because of the word stupid. But today, his mind was a little foggy because he was happy.

"You don't need to worry about anything in the future, since Your Majesty holds you up with one hand, you won't allow others to ruin you easily, you must know that you now represent not only the second candidate of the Martial Arts Academy to win nine excellent courses, but also the importance that Your Majesty attaches to the children of the poor family."

"I know."

Fang Xie nodded.

"So, you can't let Your Majesty down."

Wu Yiyi's tone suddenly became serious: "You should understand that you are already standing tall now. Because of the high standing, you can touch things that you couldn't touch before, and get the respect of others. But it's also possible that because you're standing tall, you'll fall to your death. There is a word for you that I hope you will remember. ”

"Please teach Master Hou."

"What does Your Majesty think?"

Wu Yiyi said seriously: "Think about these five words from time to time before doing things, and you will become calm and sober." ”

"This war is not going to end anytime soon."

Wu Yiyi raised his wine glass and drank it all.

"Three years later...... If you're not dead, then it's time to soar. ”
