Chapter Forty-Eight: The Troubles of the Martial Arts Alliance Leader
In the quiet back mountain, beside the gurgling stream, there is a person wearing a hat who is fishing with a fishing rod, and an ordinary fish basket is placed next to him, reflecting such a mountain, such a scene, there is a charm, the breeze is blowing, and the light cyan brocade robe exposed in the gap between the lily hats can be seen in a trance.
A footstep sounded from far and near, until he reached three meters behind the person, stood still, and said in a respectful voice, "Alliance Leader, the people of the Martial Sect and the Empty Gate have arrived today. β
Ling Qing, who was holding the fishing rod, couldn't help but sigh, the fish that was just about to be hooked was scared away, "You go and deal with it, and when the people are ready, come to me again." β
"Yes. β
Sensing that the person behind him hadn't left, Ling Qing asked, "What's the matter?"
"There is one thing, I think it still has to be like the alliance leader's announcement, in recent days, there have suddenly been a lot of people from the rivers and lakes in Jizhong, it should not be only people from the five major sects, should we deal with this matter?"
"It's up to them. β
"Yes, the subordinate will retire. β
"Hmm. β
Ling Qing sat peacefully, let himself melt into nature, quietly waiting for the fish to take the bait again, not arrogant, not impatient, not in a hurry, the natural will come.
But the world really couldn't go as expected, and the sound of talking from the mountains not far away shocked reality again, and he just watched the fish in the river flash by again.
That's it, I can't catch fish today, Ling Qing couldn't help but sigh again. At the age of thirty, he should be in the prime of life, why did he rise to a sense of melancholy that had passed for decades, every time he thought of this, he remembered why he became the leader of the martial arts alliance in the first place, and why he was confined to this.
More than ten years ago, it was the age when he was young and high-spirited, walking alone in the rivers and lakes, looking at the vast mountains and rivers, and experiencing the customs of various places. At that time, his heart was free, and his body was free, as if he could go anywhere, no one could not know, but he never expected that soon after that, he strayed into a battle, and then inexplicably became the leader of the martial arts alliance, dealing with all kinds of idle things all day long, and there were still a few old guys who had been following him, saying that it was to protect him, and he always felt that he was afraid that he would run away.
After thinking about it for a long time, he finally understood that he was pitted, pitted by the * naked, and cheated by the old man he knew inadvertently.
As he angrily went to settle accounts with the old man, it was then that he met a man, a man whom he had only met twice in his life, a man who had changed his life and made him want to stay here.
I still remember when he broke into the room directly, what he saw was the old man who jumped straight to his feet in shock, and he was always indifferent. At that time, he was no more than twenty years old, not a few years older than him, with the breath of no one entering the living, and the strong coldness and self-respecting momentum in his eyes, as if all things were just ants under his feet, disdainful, and he was the god who sat high in the clouds, lonely, arrogant, contemptuous, arrogant, no, maybe he was more like a demon walking in the dark, rampant and fearless.
From the moment he saw him, he couldn't take his eyes off it, it was strong, this was his first judgment of his ability.
When the old man saw his expression, he smiled and said to the man, "This kid is the new martial arts alliance master, why don't you ask Your Excellency to adjust and tune." β
It was the first time he had heard the old man speak in such a tone, and it was still to a junior, and he said that the adjustment was too much, and he didn't think so at that time.
At that time, the man glanced at him and said coldly, "Make a move." But he didn't make any moves himself, as if he was waiting for him to make a move.
At that time, he was young and vigorous, and he was naturally very angry with this person's demeanor, but he was not a few years older than himself, but it was cold like an ice cube, what was the big deal, let you taste it today, he used his most proud tricks, and rushed towards him with a rapidly changing posture, but this person still did not dodge, and when he was about to hit him, he took a step forward and slowly palmed.
One move, just one move, he had been defeated, and every time he thought about it now, he was amused by what he was stunned at the time.
At that time, he fell heavily on the ground, still looking dazed, and asked, "How... It's going to be like this..."
At this time, he couldn't remember the demeanor of the old man next to him, but he remembered the cold eyes that looked at him condescendingly, and said even more coldly, "The heart is not quiet." When the man had said this, he did not greet him or the old man, but went away.
At this time, the old man, who had been an invisible person for a long time, smiled treacherously and said, "See, there are people outside the world, there are heavens outside the sky, and you are completely asked to be the leader of the martial arts alliance for your own good, just like he said, your mind is not quiet, here, you can completely meditate and cultivate that." β
"Who he is. β
"He, you just have to remember that he is a person who cannot be provoked, such a person can only be a friend, not an enemy. β
"Who the hell is he?"
"Oh, are you bothered," the old man seemed to be a little annoyed by the persistence in his eyes, and finally blurted out, "Damn, Lao Tzu, I don't know who he is." Now that you're satisfied, if you want to know, you can ask for yourself. β
That's why he stays here.
Meditation, meditation, what is quiet?!
The next time I saw him, it was three years later, when he was no longer alone, and he was accompanied by a gentle and elegant woman with a bit of aura, and her tall belly also made her exude a strong maternal atmosphere.
At that time, there was no longer the previous indifference in his eyes, with a gentle smile on his face, and his eyes were full of warmth, as if he had suddenly changed a person, from a lonely demon king to an ordinary husband, and a father who was about to come.
He looked at the woman beside him again, was this woman the one who had changed him? There must have been many twists and turns in this to make a person change from this.
He fought with him again, and this time they had been fighting for a long time, not because of his efforts to improve his cultivation skills in the past three years, but because the mood of the people he was fighting against had changed, which was a guide in the true sense.
"Progress is fast. He said in a faint voice, "But to be the leader of the alliance, it's still not enough." β
"Thanks for the pointers. β
"In Xia Lingqing, may I ask your Excellency's honorable name?"
"If we can meet again, I'll tell you. With that, he took his lady by the head and left without looking back.
If we could still meet, Ling Qing repeated it again in a low voice, sometimes he wondered if this was a spell, because he had never appeared again after that. Maybe he didn't want to tell it at all, or maybe there was something hidden in it that he couldn't tell. In short, no matter how much he guessed, it was just a guess.
For more than ten years, he was still alone, self-cultivation, and he stayed here all the time, not leaving, he didn't want to explore, whether he really wanted to stay here, or whether he could see each other again, because of the admiration of that long, long ago.
However, at the beginning, the old man did what he said, and unless there was something very big, he would not bother him, saying that he had died, and now there is no one here who can win him.
If it weren't for the several cases of extermination that made the entire rivers and lakes soldiers, he would have almost forgotten that he was the leader of the martial arts alliance. Hey, this river and lake finally can't be calm anymore, old man, you guessed wrong, how can this river and lake be calm all the time, and soon it will be more lively.
I don't know if he will appear, hey, it's impossible to think about it, after all, he just searched the entire rivers and lakes, but he didn't find him, it seems that he can only wait for him to appear.
As for now, he still has to worry about the sect conference first, and he can't let people say that he, the leader of the alliance, doesn't do practical things.

"We're not going longer than expected. Feng Lanjun looked at Murong Ying, who was smiling a little reluctantly, and said indifferently.
But this tone that has not changed from the usual one made Murong Ying a little stunned at this time, "This, this is still the most recent, but the road is a little difficult to walk." Murong Ying looked at Feng Lanjun's obviously disbelieving expression, and quickly changed the topic, "Little Jun'er, don't worry, we will definitely be able to catch up with the conference, but before that, do you want to take a look at your little follower first." β
Hearing the three words of the little follower, Feng Lanjun's good-looking eyebrows furrowed slightly, and after a while, he looked at Helian Xin, whose eyes were red and his expression was a little trance, and his brows were even deeper, "Go to sleep." β
"Don't go. Helian Xin, who was a little dizzy, immediately refused when he heard this.
Feng Lanjun looked at this young man who had not slept for several days, and at this time he looked sluggish and pretending to be sober, and his eyebrows were slightly twisted, "Reason." β
"I'm going to look at you. β
Looking at her, looking at her without sleeping for several days, is she sick, this is the common thought in the hearts of Murong Ying, Ying Yi, and Ying Si.
Feng Lanjun just looked at her with a slight sinking eye, looking at her with his eyes, that is to say, if he fell asleep and woke up again, it would not be him, this is why he has been refusing to sleep, Feng Lanjun suddenly remembered the person with the same face but with an obvious childish look on his face, split personality, I see.
Rare said in a slightly gentle tone, "When you wake up again, you can still see me, even if you can't see me, since you already know who I am, you must be able to find me." β
Helian turned his somewhat unresponsive head and said suddenly, "Yes, but you must take good care of me, no matter who I am in Xing'an, I must see you." β
"Well, sleep. β
"Hmm. As soon as Helian finished answering, he immediately fell to the ground and fell asleep.
Looking at Helian Xin like this, the corners of Feng Lanjun's mouth hooked slightly, and somehow, she suddenly remembered her brother.
The conversation between the two and the other three people who watched Helian Xin's movements were stunned for a while.
Eagle Fourth, the first to couldn't help but ask, "Miss Feng, what do you mean by what you said?"
"Maybe you'll find out tomorrow. β
"Huh? Eagle Four muttered quietly.
On the second day, Murong Ying, Ying Yi, and Ying Si finally understood what Feng Lanjun meant.
"Hey, why am I here? Who are you?"
Ying Si looked at the slightly naΓ―ve man in front of him with a look of surprise, "Miss Feng, this..."
"I seem to know you, but I don't remember your name, my name is Ah Xin, what about you?" Ah Xin looked at Feng Lanjun happily and asked.
"Ahh Ah Xin?!" Ying Si looked incredulous.
"I'm not called Ah Ah Xin, my name is Ah Xin, and it's very annoying to call someone else's name wrong. β
This... This is the guy who draws his sword at every turn, fake, but in the end, it's fake.
