"Kill !!"

"Sculidor !!"

In the midst of the fierce roars of Xia and Jinzhou Yi, thousands of black sailors scattered all over the mountains, chasing and killing their targets with a very passionate attitude.

If you look closely, it is not difficult to find that these black sailors, who are usually fierce and bloodthirsty, have obviously received some kind of stimulation, which makes those already brutal and ugly faces a little more excited, a little hungry and thirsty.

If you look closely, it doesn't really look like a group of "warriors", but more like a group of "hungry wolves". Commanded and controlled by a kind of "savage" and "beastial" nature, relying on an "instinct" rather than "discipline" and "command" to attack and kill the target's "hungry wolf".

However, anyone who has been to the steppe knows that when the half-starved wolves are coming, any brave army will be forced to take the defensive.

"Kill !!"

Roaring, the "wolves" chased after the "target" and gradually moved away.

"Hmph..."

Standing on the edge of a towering cliff, looking at the "wolves" in the distance, Guigu Fulong let out a cold sneer. Straighten the belt around your waist and tighten it up. For some reason, he has always been dressed as a Confucian scholar, but today he actually changed into the clothes of a grassland shepherd, with his face that is not touched by wind and frost at all, like a crown of jade, it is really not harmonious.

"Stupid things, no matter how strong they are, can only be at the mercy of others. These 'dogs' are of little value except to bite and kill their opponents according to their masters' wishes. And if they can't satisfy the 'savagery' and 'stupidity' of these dogs, they may even turn back on their owners. ”

"Hmm. You're either right. ”

Standing on the side of Guigu Fulong, it was the end of the face, at this moment, he had changed into a brand new robe, looking heroic, his left hand pressed the hilt of the sword at his waist, his right hand clenched into a fist, and he was behind him, but the "Halberd Destroying Phoenix Gate" was not mentioned in his hand.

"But, Fu Long, it is these 'dogs' who are disdained by you to make our Wanyan family recognized by the emperor and be named among the strongest families in the world, except for them, I don't believe that there was still that army among your Xia people at that time who could defeat the Sanguo rebels in one battle."

"I admit that fact."

"But, family master, among the ancestors of our Xia people, someone once said that the power of the horse can take over the world, but it can't rule the world, do you remember?"

"If it weren't for that, Dong Liang, Confucian, and Sun would not violate Liu Zongliang, how could he rest assured that in the past few years, the Wanyan family has gradually grown up? How could Emperor Shaojing, who was even deeper and more unfathomable than them, acquiesce to us sitting around in Jinzhou? ”

"If it weren't for the fact that we were already combining with the power of the Taiping Dao, if it weren't for the fact that the master of the Thousand Army Family was hesitating about whether to 'Xia Hua', Cao Zhi would not have rushed to attack us in the case of a big war, and he would only have treated us with a 'polite' and 'indifferent' attitude like the Sun and Liu families in the past."

"As long as the backbone of the Wanyan family is still this group of people from the Heishui tribe who are stubborn in Yifeng, uneducated, and unwilling to be Xiahua, the Wanyan family will always be the family in charge of the army that the emperor will not condemn, but at the same time, the head of the family, the Wanyan family will always be trapped in Jinzhou, and their strength will be consumed in vain in the meaningless battle with the Xiang people. It will always be a 'dog' that is used and manipulated by the supreme of the dynasty. ”

"Dogs, always dogs, no matter how much credit they make, they will have the power to be great, and they will not convince the people, they may be 'afraid' of us, but they will never 'obey' us."

"If you want to break out of Jinzhou and enter the Central Plains, the head of the family, you must have the courage to take a step that the head of the family of the thousand armies never dares to take, to give up the tradition of the 'Black Water Tribe', so that the Wanyan family will truly become a 'Xia family', the head of the family..."

"Hmm..."

Nodding noncommittally, Wan Yan Gaizhi squinted, looked at the Black Water soldiers who could barely see clearly, and said lightly: "Like every time, Fu Long, your 'ambition' and 'determination' can move me again, making me want to accept your persuasion and take a step that I know will cause a strong backlash from the important ministers of the Heishui family, and may even affect my 'status' and 'life' of Yan Gai." ”

"What you describe is everything that has taught me since I was a child, everything that I know and feel most familiar with, and you want me to deny and destroy them."

"And I find that you have gradually convinced me..."

"Fuck, Fulong, you're the best strategist, and you're the best lobbyist, aren't you?"

"However, now, we have no choice, that is, you have the confidence to train the strongest army or persuade the strongest allies in the future, Fu Long, but you can't break through the barrier of time."

"Now, we still need the 'dogs' in your mouth, their strength, their loyalty, their savagery and bestiality."

"So, from time to time, we must also succumb to 'reality' and give them a chance to 'growl' and 'hiss', otherwise the 'dogs' who have not tasted blood for a long time may become dissatisfied with their owners."

"That's true..."

With a slightly regretful expression, Guigu Fulong sighed lightly: "Therefore, we have no choice, only to waste those who could have been better 'used', to waste in vain..."

Fu said: "And now, it's not too early, I should also set off, family master." ”

Wan Yan Gaizhi waved his hand and said, "There is me here, you just have to rest assured." ”

And again, "How much faith do you have this time?" ”

Guigu Fulong groaned: "Right now, it's hard to say. ”

"The main forces on the border have been withdrawn for some time, and according to my calculations, there should have been an invasion of the two directions of Imili and Montenegro, and if that were the case, I would be more than seventy percent sure that I would go."

"However, if the Xiang people have not raised troops to attack until I cross the border and enter the grassland where the Xiang people are based, I will only be able to grasp less than forty percent of my actions this time."

Wan Yan Gaizhi nodded, and said lightly: "Seventy percent, forty percent, Fu Long, the most important thing is that you come back safely." ”

Guigu Fulong bowed down and said, "Fulong understands. His voice was already trembling slightly.

Wan Yan Gaizhi stretched out his left hand and helped him up, but he didn't speak again, only said loudly: "Malai!" After a few waiters led a high-headed horse over, they helped Guigu Fulong onto the horse with their own hands, and said, "Take care." ”

Guigu Fulong bowed slightly, his legs lightly clamped the horse's belly, and the horse neighed and flew away.

Watching him go away until only a small gray dot that could barely be seen jumped in the sky, Wan Yan changed his face and rubbed the small wax pills that had been in his right hand with a very strange expression and spread them out in front of his eyes.

On it, a message was scribbled in extremely messy handwriting, an "urgent letter".

"In the early hours of this morning, the Xiang people's army crossed the border and raided, and the two places of Yimili Montenegro were in an emergency!"

"God, we can support it until the fourth day, even I don't want to believe it!"

Gritting the cloth belt wrapped around the forearm of his right hand with his teeth, and then pulling it with his left hand, while firmly binding the wound that was still oozing Yin Yin's bright red, Hu Yuji said with a laugh.

However, he is the only one who can be so optimistic and heroic.

Sitting dry, Yun Dongxian's expression was dead, Ma Fubo was silent, Zhu Wendao's face was gloomy, as if he had something on his mind, he only said "hmm", and did not answer him, Xu Renda's face was cringe and frustrated, very ugly, and he didn't pay attention to what he said.

Three days ago, on the barren mountain where the Taiping Dao base was located, when the giant gate and Qiu Yangyang led the people to leave one after another, the vicious and longing gaze of Wanyan Gaizhi and the group of people in the Black Water Department firmly locked the five people.

Knowing that they must be unlucky, the five people were ready to meet the "last battle", but they didn't expect that after a burst of arrogant and terrifying laughter, Wan Yan Gaizhi actually announced in front of many Blackwater tribesmen that from this moment on, the five people have become targets, and all the confident Blackwater tribesmen can start hunting the five people, and in the end, when all five people fall, the three people with the greatest meritorious service will be able to take over the three clans of Weiming, Brother Cave and He who have no leader due to the death of Heishui Weiming, Heishui Cave Brother and Heishui He.

The head of the clan is already the core figure in the power system of the Heishui Wanyan family, and there are tens of thousands of clans and thousands of elite warriors who can be directly controlled in his hands. and the lawful right to plunder at will in the land of the counties in which the people are based. This kind of commitment made everyone in the Blackwater tribe almost fall into madness, and on that day alone, nearly 800 people threw themselves into this "competition", and in the following days, the masters of the other Blackwater tribes who rushed to the scene after hearing the news were even more endless.

Today, the place where the five of them were located was hundreds of miles away from that day, and the number of black sailors who were in hot pursuit was four or five thousand.

… Although it is said that relying on their own strength and experience, the Five Tigers will be able to sustain themselves for several days in the face of these enemies who are somewhat "unbalanced" and lose their "unity" because of this great reward, but everyone knows in their hearts that the general trend has passed.

The place where the five people are located is a mountainous area, the mountains are steep and rocky, and the dangerous terrain is everywhere, and it is precisely because of this mountain situation that the five people can support it so far. He has killed and seriously injured more than 100 Blackwater troops in countless "counterattacks" and "reverse sniping", but at the same time, the five of them are also very clear that such a result only has "tactical" significance, but it is impossible to have any impact at the "strategic" level, unless there is a major change in the rear of the Wanyan family or some unexpected strong reinforcements, relying on this "small victory" alone, to kill the more and more Blackwater army in front of you or tear a hole, it is like a fool's dream. If it is an ordinary martial arts character, they may still be able to have fantasies, but the five of them are all veterans of a hundred battles, and they are no longer familiar with this kind of battlefield situation, so how can they coax themselves into daydreaming?

In particular, although the people of the Blackwater tribe who were chasing were frenzied, several commanders of the army did not lose their senses, and after absorbing the wisdom of the previous five people who robbed the horses to break through the formation and escape, they actually stationed all the horses outside the mountain, although it reduced the mobility of the Blackwater army, but fundamentally eliminated the possibility of the escape of the five light horses. The army was divided into ten-person squads, each performing its own duties, and after clearly dividing the mountainous area here, they searched separately and reissued a military order, which was to contact the surrounding squads once every half an hour. Although the mountainous area is vast, it is divided by these hundreds of teams of men and horses, and there are no dead ends and leaks, and another 1,000 men and horses are sent to block the intersections outside the mountain, which is blocked.

For the time being, the five people hiding in a narrow valley are still far away from the Black Sailors' main team, and there is no risk of being discovered for a while, but if the search continues at this speed, at most two hours, there will be an advance force entering this area, and even if the five people can kill the first batch of Black Sailors without alarming their team, it will only delay the time of the Black Sailor army by half an hour at most.

After a long battle, the five of them were all familiar with the smell and feeling of "death", and now, silently, pondering the five people, although they did not exchange more opinions, but their hearts were all echoing with the same thought.

("That moment" is finally coming...)

After joining the army, you know the yin and yang road, and the five people who have been in the army for many years are far better than ordinary people in terms of open-mindedness about life and death, but, even so, this cannot prevent the gloomy and depressing atmosphere from spreading around the five people.

Night, quietly came, and the little swaying fire, also lit up one by one in the mountains, through the flickering fire, the five people can better judge that the speed of the black sailors is still above their own estimates, with the current progress, forced to get here, it should only be less than half an hour.

The swaying and leisurely, the dark yellow moon slowly climbed up from the edge of the sky, when it was eighteen, when the moon was full, like a big plate, it was covered by the flowing clouds in the sky, and it appeared and disappeared from time to time, and then with the whistling cold wind, between heaven and earth, it even added a bit of sad taste for a while.

The five of them are all military generals who rushed out of the bloody sky and the red earth, and they were not the Yakesao people who were sad about the moon, but now, when they faintly felt that "this may be the last moon in this life", they all silently raised their heads and looked at the moon.

"Well... It's familiar..."

The first to break the silence was Yun Dongxian, as if he was infinitely emotional, he smashed his waist a few times with his backhand, straightened up, raised his head, looked at the moon, and the expression on his face was indescribably complicated.

"Back then, it seemed that it was also such a winter night..."

There was a thoughtless sigh, but when they heard this, the other four people clearly understood what he meant.

Twenty years ago, it was on such a night, after a fierce argument and even scolding, that in the end, the five tigers would go their separate ways and throw their own things.

And the "culprit" of that matter, "General Xu Renda", when he heard such words, his face twitched, which fully reflected what level of storm was already echoing in his heart, but he had always looked at him unpleasantly, and never let go of the opportunity to attack his "Daojun General Zhu Wendao", but it was unusual, not only did he not speak, but he even lowered his head, staring at the ground as if he was thoughtful.

"Big brother!"

finally couldn't bear it anymore, and suddenly stood up, Xu Renda said: "Today's situation is all my fault, you..." ”

(The third child?!) )

Speaking softly, it was like a thunderbolt that slammed into the hearts of the four people, Zhu Wendao raised his head suddenly, his face was full of shock, Ma Fubo was stunned, he didn't know what to say, Hu Youji opened his mouth wide, looked at Yun Dongxian blankly, the cloth belt on his left hand had fallen loosely, and he still didn't know.

And the most surprising is, of course, Xu Renda.

(The third child?!) )

As early as twenty years ago, after a fierce and decisive speech, Xu Renda thought that in this life, in this life, it was impossible for him to hear this title that made him extremely concerned and extremely nostalgic, even though this time, the five people lived and died together again, but every time Xu Renda deliberately tempted, the response he got was still just the same stiffness and strength as twenty years ago, and even, there were a few more feelings that became more mellow due to the accumulation and fermentation of time, and several degrees, Xu Renda, who was still secretly expecting in his heart, had already given up the idea of restoring his old name, and now, as the head of the five, Yun Dongxian suddenly changed his words, which made him faintly feel "unreal" in this sudden huge surprise, and for a while, he couldn't even accept this "fact" intellectually.

(Big brother...) Big brother, did he forgive me? )

I can't understand this "reality", so naturally I can't talk about any "reaction", Ma, Xu, Zhu, Hu, the four shocked faces, looked at Yun Dongxian who had not yet turned around, and for a while, even the Blackwater army was gradually approaching and forgot about it.

Not only Xu Renda, but even Ma Fubo, Hu Youji and others, at this time, also thought that Yun Dongxian was close to life and death when he saw this, and looked down on the past grievances, Fang Ken changed his words and recalled him brother, only Zhu asked his eyebrows twitched a few times, as if he heard something wrong, and his face gradually became a little suspicious.

And when Yun Dongxian finally turned around, a thought flashed in the hearts of Ma Fubo and Hu Youji at the same time, "Wrong!" Xu Renda, who was still longing just now, also had a shock in his chest, and his hot mind was half cold.

Yun Dongxian's face is not a face of "letting go" and "forgiving", but a face of "pain", a face full of "pain".

Even the heroic tears that could be held back when the clouds were scattered were no longer able to be suppressed, and they were about to roll out of the eyes full of remorse.

"Big brother?! You..."

Exclaimed, Ma Fubo and Hu Yuji dodged forward at the same time, but Yun Dongxian interrupted and said, "Stop for me!" Although he looked tired, injured and sick, this shout was extremely majestic, and he had a bit of the kind of general majesty that had been on the battlefield and the horizontal sword, and Ma Fubo was shocked by his body, and he had stopped before he could think about it!

(Big Brother...)

Sighing in his heart, Zhu Wendao got up slowly, and at the same time as him, Xu Renda's eyes also flashed with a keen light, looked at him, and then moved away to stare at Yun Dongxian, thoughtfully.

The two of them were stopped with a shout, but Yun Dongxian didn't speak further, just looked at the four of them in a daze, his eyes moved around, as if he couldn't see enough. After a while, his expression relaxed, and the person suddenly seemed to be much older, and the majesty of the general that flashed suddenly was long gone.

His lips squirmed a few times, and Yundong Xianfang said slowly: "Third child, I can't blame you for today's incident." ”

"Second brother, fourth brother, fifth brother, you, you will become like this, it is all my harm, it is me who harms..."

Ma Fubo grabbed in front of him early, supported Yun Dongxian, and said repeatedly: "Big brother, what are you talking about?" But I was so suspicious in my heart, I thought, "What's the matter, big brother?" Could it be that the thoughts are rushing too much, so that they go crazy? But he heard Yun Dongxian say in a trembling voice: "Second brother, don't stop me from talking." ”

"There are some things that I have hidden in my heart for too long, and I can't find a chance to tell you about them, but now, if I don't say them, I don't have a chance."

"Rush... He's not my flesh and blood! ”

(What?!) )

Suddenly, hearing Yun Dongxian say this, Rao is Ma Fubo was used to seeing the world, and he was also shocked, and said in a lost voice: "Big brother, are you crazy?!" Hu Youji was also stunned, but Xu Ren Dazhu didn't look much shocked when he asked, as if he had expected it.

"On that day, I knew that you would come, and I knew that the third child would invite me to come to Jinzhou, and long before you appeared, I had received an order to come with you."

"It's me who has brought you to where you are now, it's me!"

With tears in his eyes, Yun Dongxian's body trembled violently, as if he had completely lost the ability to "self-control", if it weren't for Ma Fubo's support, he would have fallen to the ground.

It took nearly a cup of tea to finish Yun Dongxian's words, in the process of his speaking, his whole person has been in a very special state, his expression is excited, his eyes are wide open, full of bloodshots, the speed of speech is not the usual steady and gentle, but a kind of high-speed pouring that is not easy to hear, although in the process the other four people want to insert his "telling" several times, but Yun Dongxian seems to have not seen it at all, just talking on his own.

… When the flood peak has been accumulated for too long, nothing can stop the catharsis that gushes out.

When Yun Dongxian was talking, the four of them wanted to interject several times, but when Yun Dongxian finally finished speaking, for a while, the four of them had no intention of speaking.

The "impact" given to them by Yun Dongxian, even if they have a strong personality, they must have a little time to digest and absorb it.

(No wonder, I've never heard of the boss having a woman, no wonder, Chongbo's face is not like the boss, but, Chongbo, Chongbo he could be "that person"?) How is this possible?! )

When they first met, Ma Fubo had a very good impression of Yun Chongbo, and after having a more in-depth exchange with him along the way, he was the only "descendant" among the five brothers, and in his mind, he really couldn't associate him with the name that Yun Dongxian had just said in person.

(And if, as the boss said, long before the third came to me, that person knew all this, and had foretold that the boss was going to facilitate this trip, then, wouldn't it be just a matter of saying...)

What to wait for, Ma Fubo couldn't think clearly for a while, but he had a strong feeling: with the passage of time, the truth of this "trip to Golden State" is being revealed little by little, and now when he looks back, the "reason" that convinced the five brothers at the beginning is simply a "joke".

(Fuck, is it "he" who is messing around?) But, why? What good can he get by doing this...)

Straight by nature, Ma Fubo is not a person who is good at "insight" or "deduction", although he has the "strongest" strength among the five brothers, but when it comes to reaction and thinking, he loses to Xu Ren Dazhu asking a lot, at this moment, when he is still "confused" by his own thinking, Zhu Wendao, whose face is slightly pale, has already taken half a step forward and began to ask questions to Yun Dongxian.

"Nawei, big brother, what do you mean by suddenly telling us these secrets?"

"What do you mean?"

With a "weird" but "miserable" smile, Yun Dongxian said: "You should understand what I mean." Asked. ”

"Even though the second and fifth brothers are still unknown, you, you and the third brother should understand."

Although he was mentally prepared, when Xu Renda heard Yun Dongxian call himself "the third child" again, he still couldn't help but feel a wild beat in his heart, and it was easy to calm down, and at this time, Zhu Wendao frowned and said, "You want us to escape?" ”

"Yes."

Nodding heavily, Yun Dongxian said: "You want to escape, try all means, you also have to escape, you must escape." ”

"This is your 'responsibility', and you have to shoulder it to hedge against the 'responsibility' that the wave bears."

"Tell him what I just said, tell him the truth of everything, he is eighteen years old, he should know everything."

"If I could, I would have liked to tell him myself, but, no way, that's no longer possible..."

His face was already slightly pale, but when Yun Dongxian finished speaking, Zhu Wendao's face had turned pale, and Xu Renda's face was also covered with a "gloomy" feeling.

"Boss..."

Calling in a low voice, Zhu asked and said slowly: "What do you mean, do you want us to change our 'strategy'?" ”

"Yes."

Categorically, Yun Dongxian said: "Or the current 'dead end' really seems to have no way out, but I don't believe it." ”

"The Black Sailors are certainly fierce, but there is no 'military advisor' to preside over them. If you and the third child can donate their past suspicions... And to be able to start doing it without 'concerns', I don't believe you can't think of a way to escape. ”

When it came to "no worries", Yun Dongxian's voice trembled slightly, lowered slightly, and then returned to normal.

And when he heard that, Xu Renda's face suddenly swelled with a flush, and then he took a deep breath and pressed it down, Zhu Wendao's face was already extremely white, but he couldn't be whiter, but his body couldn't help it, and trembled.

Not only the two of them, but Ma Fubo and Hu Youji, although they reacted slowly, at this time, they had already understood what Yun Dongxian meant, and their faces became very difficult to look at.

In the end, it was Zhu who asked first.

"Big brother, what do you mean... Don't ask the whole army to break through?! ”

As if he hadn't seen the reaction of the five people, Yun Dongxian said in a deep voice: "Yes." ”

"All along, the strategy you have set has been based on 'full life', and it is precisely for this reason that although we have successfully broken through several times, we have never been able to get rid of the Blackwater army."

"And now, I ask you to be ruthless and find a path that requires 'sacrifice', a path that can save some people."

"A way for 'death' not to be meaningless, and a way for people who have no hope of being saved to at least die with some peace of mind."

"Find it, find it before the Blackwater army arrives. Then, tell me, or us, what we should do..."

(Big Brother...)

hung his head and whispered in his heart, but no one opened his mouth to refute Yun Dongxian's opinion.

Because, they were born in the army, have been in battle for a long time, and are familiar with military strategy, they clearly know that Yun Dongxian, what he said is right, he pointed out a way of life, a way of life at the moment or the "only" way.

A hope.

Yun Dongxian, who had already sprouted his will to die, waited for him to say: "Think of a way, come up with a way, a way that requires me to be sacrificed, as long as that way can make you escape, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter..."

And such a road, his brothers, will they take?

"Nope."

Whispering, Xu Renda's eyes were still staring at the ground and he didn't raise his head.

"I can't."

Before Yun Dongxian could speak, he raised his hand, stopped Yun Dongxian's rebuttal, and said, "Big brother, please listen to me." ”

"I'm not saying anything heroic out of whims."

"My words are just an admission of my 'incompetence'."

"As a 'former military advisor', I had already thought about that matter before you spoke, big brother, but the result of my consideration was 'impossible'."

"In the hinterland of Jinzhou, in the lair of the Wanyan family, in the face of the encirclement and suppression of thousands of black sailors, with the strength of the five of us, we are willing to do whatever it takes, and it is impossible to escape from this killing array."

"Or maybe there's a way, but at least, it's beyond my means."

"But I'm still happy."

"Even if I know that you haven't really forgiven me, brother, even if I know that the fourth brother is still sneering in my heart at the moment, it's good for me, to be able to hear the eldest brother, you just said 'third', I, Xu Renda, is dead now, and it's not in vain..."

"I have a way."

When Xu Renda expressed his "refusal", Zhu Wenwen took a step forward and said in a slow voice.

"Fourth brother, you..."

Taken aback by Zhu Wenwen's "words", Ma Fubo wanted to ask, but Zhu Wendao raised his hand to stop him. With a strange smile, he slowly continued: "A method that meets the 'requirements' of the eldest brother." ”

For a while, the atmosphere became dead and oppressive again.

After throwing out the sentence, Zhu Wenwen didn't continue, but just put his right hand into his arms and touched a small leather bag out.

The skin bag was only half the size of a palm, the surface was dark, and it was extremely slippery by the rubbing aurora, and there was no pattern to be seen, and a dark red rope was tied to the mouth of the bag, which was firmly bound. When Zhu Wendao first took it out, the skin bag was only half full, but after Zhu Wendao rubbed it very gently and cherished outside the skin, the skin bag gradually swelled to the point of bulging, almost as if it was about to burst open.

The five of them came all the way west, for the convenience of the road, and did not carry any more personal belongings, Zhu Wenzi has always been quiet, and he didn't bring anything, only a small baggage, and he has also opened it with others several times, but no one has ever seen this small skin. But he has always been cautious, and every plan must be followed, and now the four of them are not surprised to see him like this, but they can't help but be very curious when they see that little skin bag is really too inconspicuous.

Ma Fubo said in his heart: "What kind of trick is this skin of the fourth child, weird and weird, only such a small thing, how can it break through the encirclement of the black sailors..." ”

The Taoist system that circulated in the land of Great Xia originated four thousand years ago with the method of "one gasification and three purifications" from Emperor Xuanyuan, who won the entire Dragon and Tiger Mountain. But later, his disciples set up their own sects, divided into Zhengyi, Maoshan, Longhu, Quanzhen, Wudoumi and many other schools, the fourth generation of disciples more Shangqing Yuqing two immortal strongmen, claiming to be "ordered by Huang Tian, for the Taiping precursor" to establish the Taiping Dao, and the entire Taisho Dynasty has been a mortal enemy for thousands of years. Although each sect claims to be a Taoist sect, but the interests are different, the search is different, and the Taoist research and progress is gradually divided into things, and there are countless branches in each sect, which have accumulated for thousands of years, and there are all kinds of branches, I am afraid that there are not hundreds of Taoist sects, and the research and development of spells is very different. However, there is a Tao that "all changes are inseparable from its sect", although the interests of each Taoist sect are different, the origin is close, if carefully summarized, it can still be roughly divided into five categories, that is:

It contains branches such as mind reading, soul spells, life spells, recitations, illusions, etc., "Shadow Magic".

It is known as "Yang can save the world and help the people, and Yin can hang down the hands of the people", refining alchemy, using medicine, and forging all kinds of magic weapons, "Danli Technique".

With the power of the origin of heaven and earth, it includes the five elements and eight trigrams, etc., "Heaven and Earth Technique".

The general summary of spells such as the Divine Law, the Servant Ghost Strategy, and the Divine Beast Summoning, "Please Enslave Technique".

Divination throws the sand and burns the armor and occupies the sand, although the mystery is unpredictable. However, practitioners believe that there is a secret of heaven and earth, "turtle arithmetic".

There are no worries about the types of Taoism in the world, but almost all of them can be generalized into these five categories, and a few spells that are too difficult to distinguish and define, are usually called "miscellaneous arts", and they are not included in the five categories, most of them are created from the hands of some dogs * scholars who walk the streets and alleys, and they are often ridiculous or vulgar when they are used, and they are known as orthodox Taoist sects.

Originally, the Taoist began with heaven and earth, and there was no distinction between good and evil, but with the different minds of the practitioners, the spells that originally came from the same origin would go in completely opposite directions, such as the soul spells contained in the "Shadow Ming Technique". But there are also people who are obsessed with abusing and killing living souls, refining magic weapons, and they can't help but be angry with others.

Zhu Wendao is known as "General Daojun", the most erudite and strong, although he is limited by cultivation, he can't practice any advanced Taoism, but he knows a lot about Taoism, and has a lot of knowledge of the Ming Technique, and he also tried to use the technique of "Wandering Soul Parasitic Body" in the Western Expeditionary Army to help those soldiers who died on the battlefield to pour out their last concerns, Ma Fubo naturally knew that he was very confident when he heard him now, but it seemed that he had to sacrifice Yundong Xianfang, not a free lord, so he thought of this, and couldn't help but be shocked, thinking: "How did this happen?!" ”

Although Ma Fubo's thinking turned fast, it was not as fast as Xu Renda, and when Ma Fubo's thoughts were not fixed, he had already stared at Zhu and asked, and said in a deep voice: "What is that?" On the contrary, Yun Dongxian's face showed joy, obviously relieved a lot by Zhu Wenwen's words.

Hearing Xu Renda's question, Zhu asked and did not answer directly, there was still that faint and strange smile on the corner of his mouth, and he said slowly: "What is it, take a look, don't you know?" As he spoke, the index finger of his left hand was bent and hooked, and the red rope tied to the mouth of the sac was torn open, and the bottom of the sac was pinched with his right hand, and the leather bag was lifted upside down, and the contents were poured out, which was a dark gray translucent liquid, extremely viscous, although it fell out of the sac, it was continuous, and slowly hung down into a long one, which looked a little disgusting.

(What is this thing?) )

I couldn't understand it at all, and I didn't have a clue at all, when Ma Fubo was surprised, Xu Renda's face changed greatly, and he said sharply: "What is that?!" ”

Zhu asked and ignored him, his eyes just looked at the drooping liquid, and said, "I obviously recognize it, but I don't have the confidence to be sure?" ”

Suddenly, he muttered a strange laugh: "Long before you came, the boss already knew?" It's funny, but among our brothers, there is more than one like this. ”

"Second brother, fifth brother, do you two have any innocence on the surface, I'm really curious..."

Ma Fubo was puzzled and thought, "Fourth... Is he crazy? But he knew that it would never be, and he didn't know what to do for a while, looking at Zhu Wendao's strange face, and then thinking about his words with incomprehensible meanings, he suddenly felt a chill in his hands and feet, and faintly felt in his heart that something very big was about to happen.

At this time, Xu Renda had already said angrily: "You, how can you have the 'phantom body' of the 'Dongjiang Sun Family'?!" As soon as the words came out, Yundong Xian, Ma Fubo and the others were all shocked, and they all said in their hearts: "What, 'phantom body'?!" ”

The Taisho Dynasty has been established for thousands of years, and the families of all surnames have risen and fallen one after another, and you have withered and he has been glorious, and the open and secret battles have never stopped. There is a way is a son of heaven and a courtier, every time the emperor's surname changes hands, the biggest winner is the family with the emperor's surname, and in addition, a cadre can have a discerning eye, from the dragon in the unrising time, naturally will also take the opportunity to take the throne, the original power of the family replaced, unless, those original nobles, still have enough influence or strength, so that the new family surnamed emperor after weighing, think that the benefits of "continuing" it is better than "driving it out".

Among this kind of family, since the two families of Qiu Ao are the most famous, for 4,000 years, in any dynasty can also enjoy a noble status of these two, and after them, is known as the "king of people, not the king" of the Langya royal family, although there is no prince, but from generation to generation inherited any generation of emperors will also acquiesce to the title of "Xiaoshui King" and has more than 10,000 fiefs in Hanzhou.

These three families can maintain their wealth and wealth for a long time, not only because of "history" and "legends", but also because of their "strength": the "Thirteen Classics" of the Quzou Qiu family, the "Dragon Fist" of the Ao family in the East China Sea, and the "Green Box Secret Technique" and "Forgetting Love Tips" of the Langya Wang family are all invincible magic skills that can look at the world, and at the same time, the correct choice and education of their children also enable the three families to always cultivate inheritors who can achieve great achievements and have enough wisdom to face the palace overthrow; In addition, some "knowledge" or "secrets" that have been preserved from generation to generation and are even older than the entire Taisho Dynasty; There is also the ancestral precept of never coveting the emperor's surname and never pursuing the "high position of power" within the bureaucracy, so that these three schools can always stand on the second level of "politics" and "power". Although he is the first emperor, he can despise the rest of the family and the people of the world.

In addition to these three families, there are also some families, with deep roots, although there are times when they sink, but within a few generations, there will always be outstanding people who will revive the family.

The "Jinyuan Li Family" who is good at "Taibai Yin Sutra", the "Fengxiang Zhu Family" who has the "Nine Killing Arrows", the "Qili Ji Family" who has the "Hun Tian Jing" and "Wentian Five Strikes", and the "Weishui Ying Family" who is fierce in the world with the "Beast God Formula"... These families have all been in the emperor's surname and have had a glorious past, but in the final analysis, the reason why they have been able to maintain their wealth for a long time is not their illustrious past, but their unique family protection strength.

… Strength, that thing, is always the ultimate principle in the distribution of all benefits.

Today, in addition to the three surnames of King Qiu Ao, the family at the highest position in the bureaucratic system has a total of five surnames: the "Yecheng Cao Family" who occupies the position of Taishi, the "Peishang Liu Family" who holds the position of "Taibo", the "Dongjiang Sun Family" who holds the position of Taibao, the "Heishui Wanyan Family" who guards the military department, and the "Jinyuan Li Family" who controls the Ministry of Officials. Among the five surname families, the Cao family has the shortest history, but Cao Zhi has been hidden in the ranks of the "strongest" today, and "Jiuquer Cao" is also the dragon and phoenix among people; Needless to say, the Black Water Wanyan family has the power of the Black Water army alone, which can make any family unwilling to take it seriously; The Li family of Jinyuan and the Liu family of Peishang are both famous families with a history of more than 3,000 years, and each of them has been surnamed as the emperor, and the family heirlooms have their own mysteries; And the Dongjiang Sun family... Although the position of the third prince is higher than the six officials, in terms of behavior, the Sun family is the most low-key and mysterious of the five.

Although the genealogy of the Sun family is tracing back to the Emperor Xingqiong period, but in fact, the family was established very late, since the beginning of the * Zongjia master, it has only been less than a thousand years, the so-called Gonggong Zhugong in the temple, Tai half is far-fetched in the history of the history of the Great Xia, and it is not surprising that this has always been the only way to govern the genealogy of each family.

The prosperity of the Sun family was nine hundred years ago, when the rule of the Liu family in Peishang was shattered, the world was in chaos, and the smoke was everywhere, and the Sun family was a famous landlord in the south at that time, with tens of thousands of acres of granges, and there were wine shops and dyeing shops. It is an important object of the various forces, and it is also the forefront of the imperial court's intention to detain Mo, but he has a unique vision, and he actually gave all the accumulated more than a dozen tons of grain to the party before the defeat, and is leading the remnants of the army to pass his family on the house, the original Tianmen guarded Xiao Bo'an, and poured money to copy the soldiers, and got thousands of people, teaching the eldest son to unify it, and serving under Xiao Bo'an's account, at that time, the world was in an uproar, all said that his people were old and wise, and they were self-defeating, and the relatives in the family also rebounded, but Sun Gongtai smiled calmly, the first did not argue, and the second was not easy to do. Later, Xiao Bo'an finally mixed up for a day, entered the emperor's surname, remembered the old kindness, reciprocated a hundred times, and rewarded him with the "position of the three dukes", so that the Sun family was able to open a sect and establish a number, enter the "family tree", called the "Dongjiang Sun family", at that time, the world sighed, knowing that Sun Gongtai's wisdom pearl was in his hand, and his eyes were as sharp as electricity.

Although Sun Gongtai has unparalleled wisdom, is good at business, and has meritorious service in establishing the Sun family, he is not proficient in martial arts and spells, and he really establishes the Sun family's kung fu completely, and it is his eldest son who follows Xiao Bo'an to conquer the east and west, and the "phantom dragon" who has no meritorious service, Sun Baifu.

The Sun family's hereditary kung fu, called "Thousand Illusions", belongs to the Taoist law in the "illusion" first-class, and infiltrated with Buddhism Pure Land part of the spell and the southern indigenous barbarian arts, first written in the hands of Sun Baifu, Dacheng in the hands of his son, known as "the clouds and mountains in the fog know the flutter, even if the opposite side should not know" Although the lethality is insufficient, but it is a thousand illusions, strange and inexplicable, but also a unique magic skill. But because of his inability to face the enemy head-on, he was often ridiculed by others, and it was not until it was passed on to the fourth generation that he had a chance and became famous in the first war.

At that time, the rule of the "Pingjiang Xiao family" had inherited the third emperor, Emperor Baiye. At that time, the northern Xiang people raised troops to attack and plunder in the south, and Emperor Baiye commanded the enemy from himself, although he won the first battle, but because of his light enemy rash advance, he was lured into the Jedi by the Xiang people, and was besieged heavily. At that time, the army and horses under the command of Emperor Baiye were already three out of ten, and they were deeply in the hinterland of the people, and they could not count on the help of the rear army at all. He wanted to draw the sword quickly, but he was blocked by Sun Liang, the head of the Sun family, who was with him at the time, saying that he had a plan to confuse the enemy, and he could retreat with the whole army. The next day, Emperor Baiye and Sun Liang went out of the camp of the Xiang Army, willing to be hostage, in order to return the army to the south. Xiang Ren has won the emperor, and the wish is satisfied, but also afraid that the remaining Xia army will fight the trapped beasts, and after taking all the heavy weapons of the Xia army, he will return south as he said. He also repaired the book and taught the imperial court, and ordered the important ministers and clan elders to discuss the matter of losing money to welcome the emperor. But who would have thought that after the army returned south, Emperor Baiye actually appeared in the army, and the morale was greatly boosted, and the whole country was happy, and he rejoined the army of King Qin, who had gathered near the imperial capital, returned to the north, killed the Xiang people by surprise, and succeeded in the first battle, driving the Xiang people's forces north for hundreds of miles, so that there is the scale of today's Jinzhou and Qinzhou.

It turned out that it was not Emperor Baiye himself who joined the army with Sun Liang that day, but the highest achievement of the Sun family's illusion, the "phantom body". Relying on Sun Liang, who was supported by the spell on the side, Na Xibei was able to walk and speak, eat and drink as usual, and deceived many leaders of the Xiang people and the rebellion of Great Xia, so that the real Emperor Baiye could escape to the south and return to the army and return to Beijing safely.

On the day of the Xiang army, under the accident, eat the Xia army's counterattack, under the defeat, Fang knew that he was evil, and Sun Liang was executed, after torture and torture and killing, the corpse was in the grass, and then the remnants were picked up by the Xia army.

The so-called "phantom body" is to use the Sun family's secret medicine as a medium, based on the living people, and transform the shape of others, so that there is no difference in the slightest place, and it is known as the treasure of the Sun family, known as "it is not easy to get ten thousand gold", and it seems that the number of people carried by Zhu Wendao is only to be able to illustrate the human head. But if it is balanced by gold treasure, it is already worth thousands of gold.

Since the brothers turned against each other, Zhu Wendao has been living in Confucianism, making a living by opening a school and a western seat, and finally his old reputation and friends are still there, but he doesn't worry about his livelihood, but in addition to food, clothing, smelting and travel, the accumulation of each year is only a few dozen taels, but where is the net worth to save such a thing?

In the midst of surprise, Xu Renda was already angry and said: "You, you are actually a member of the 'Dongjiang Sun Family'?!" ”

Still smiling faintly, Zhu asked and said, "Exactly." ”

"Like the eldest brother, before you came to look for us, I knew about it, and received instructions from the Sun family to make every effort to facilitate this trip."

"As for this phantom body, it was given by the high-level of the Sun family to help the urgent need of life and death."

For the Sun family, the Cao family in front of them and the Wanyan family behind them are not good, the so-called "drive the tiger and devour the wolf" strategy, there have been in ancient times, it is the old wisdom of Daxia,

Xu Renda sneered: "It's just so simple? ”

With a twitch on his face, Zhu asked and continued: "In addition, I have been instructed that it is best to look for 'opportunities' to trigger or expand the conflict between your Cao family and the Wanyan family, but... But I refused. ”

Xu Renda's expression moved slightly, and he said, "Why? ”

Zhu asked and lowered his head not to look at him, but just whispered, "I don't like it." ”

Xu Renda hesitated, suddenly clenched his fists, and said, "That's the case, thank you." Zhu Wenwen smiled miserably, waved his hand in reply, and did not talk to him.

To trigger a head-on conflict, the best way is, of course, to create "bloodshed" and "sacrifice", and the best target is naturally the five tiger generals who have a "semi-official" identity and come because of the will of the Cao family, and among them, the most powerful reaction of the Cao family is none other than Xu Renda, who directly embodies the will of the Cao family.

Yun Dongxian coughed and said, "Asked, what do you want?" ”

Zhu Wendao still didn't look up, just stared at the "phantom body" in his hand, and said, "The Black Sailor detachment is attacking, this is the opportunity." ”

"The team that discovered this place will be the first to kill them, choose a suitable corpse, and use this phantom body, I can transform and transform its head so that it can fool the Black Marines and think that they have completed their goal."

"At that time, it was a chance to escape..."

After thinking about it, he said again: "This thing is a new type developed by the Sun family in recent years, even if no one is on the side to cast spells to support it, it can be guaranteed that it will not change within a few months, and judging from the style of the black sailors, by then, our head should have been weathered and abandoned after being hung high in public..."

When he said the words "our head", Zhu Wenwen's lips twitched slightly, and he froze for a moment, but he still finished speaking.

Yun Dongxian's face moved slightly, and he said, "Asked, you..."

Those five words were spoken, and if they were said, Zhu asked, he was determined to give up, to give up the opportunity to "live", and to spill his life and blood with other brothers, and splash together,

As if he was afraid that too much "talking" would make him "shake", before Yun Dongxian finished speaking, Zhu Wendao quickly intercepted: "But, as I said just now, the number of 'phantom bodies' I have obtained is very small, only enough for one person. ”

"So, big brother, the current situation is not to sacrifice one of you to save the rest, but to sacrifice four of the five of us, so that the last one, he has a little hope, a little hope of survival..."

Yun Dongxian was stunned for a moment and said, "What?!" I couldn't help but look at Ma Fubo, Xu Renda and others.

Four deaths, one life.

What kind of choice is this? What kind of torture is this? ”

Who, who should it be?

Yun Dongxian had already made up his mind about "one death", although there was hope at the moment, he didn't want to compete with his brother for this thought, but he couldn't help hesitating in his heart. "This, how can this be born?" He is known as the chief of five, the deacon is fair, decisive, and has no cowardice to avoid things, but at this moment, in the face of such a "question", he found for the first time in his life that he did not have the "courage" to answer, and he was even more eager to "escape"!

"I'm not leaving."

In the face of Zhu Wenwen's "torture", the first person to speak was Xu Renda, who was categorical, he said: "Twenty years ago, I did something sorry for the general and everyone, and today, it should be the day to repay my debts." ”

After a pause, he said silently: "I also know that this is not enough, but I only have this one life." ”

Ma Fubo also had a clear plan in his heart at this time, and said in his heart: "I am almost fifty years old, and I have no children or daughters, so I have nothing to worry about. Then he raised his head and said, "Fifth brother, you..."

"I'm sorry, second brother..."

He muttered lowly, and Hu Youji's right hand was hurriedly sent, only to see a flash of silver light, and half of the remnant sword had already entered Ma Fubo's body, revealing it straight on his back!

"Fifth brother, you..."

Unexpectedly, Ma Fubo didn't even have time to react, and he had been hit hard by Hu Youji's sword, but, strangely, even at this moment, there was still no anger in his eyes, on the contrary, when he looked at Hu Youji fixedly, there was a very strange feeling in his eyes, a feeling that was more like "sympathy" and "helplessness".

What's even more strange is that Yun Dongxian's reaction was to see Hu Youji hit Ma Fubo hard, Xu Rendazhu's first reaction to ask was to scream and pounce, but Yun Dongxian swept faster than them, and his fists shot together, stopping them alive!

"Fifth brother..."

Shaking his head slightly, Ma Fubo smiled bitterly and said, "Why are you bothering..."

"I'm sorry, second brother."

Apologizing in a deep voice, Hu Youji nudged with his left hand and sent Ma Fubo backwards, and the remnant sword in his right hand naturally withdrew from Ma Fubo's body, bringing out a bright red to shocking blood light.

"But that's all I can do."

"I can finally repay you for the old things that saved my life three times..."

"Fifth brother..."

Muttering gloomily, Ma Fubo's body slowly leaned back, fell to the ground, and opposite him, Hu Youji straightened his clothes, turned around with an expressionless face, and looked at Yun Dongxian and the other three who already had a "clear" expression.

"The second brother is seriously injured, and he can't play any role in the later battle, and relying on the three of you alone, it is impossible to have enough time to 'kill' and 'arrange'."

"So, don't waste any more time 'discussing', fourth brother, start now, and make a 'mirror image' for the second brother..."

About half an hour later, everything had been taken care of neatly, and the black sailors who had advanced to the area where the five people were first were captured and killed before they could send a message, and the one with the most similar body to Ma Fubo was completely no different from Ma Fubo in appearance after being processed by Zhu Wendao, holding the green ray, curling up, and staying quietly on one side. The rest of the corpses were all burned by Xu Renda's spell, and only a pile of charred and black corpses was seen, and the specific number of people could not be determined. On the other hand, Ma Fubo's wound had been rescued to stop the bleeding, and two "longevity talismans" were pasted on his mouth and nose, ready to be buried five feet deep underground.

The effect of the longevity talisman is similar to the "hibernation" of the genus of the bear and snake, and when all the life functions of the recipient are brought to a standstill, the recipient's demand for food and air is reduced to almost "no demand", and for those who are as strong as Ma Fubo, this level of "consumption" can be maintained at least for more than a month. Although it is said that if he is discovered during this period, he will be slaughtered by anyone who has no reaction, but Zhu Wendao and Xu Renda are convinced that judging from the style of the black sailors, they should be satisfied after taking off all the "heads" of the five people, and the Wanyan family, which urgently needs strength to monitor the civil strife in Taiping Road and guard against the movements of other families and even Xiang people, is unlikely to let thousands of the most elite black sailors stay here to dig three feet into the ground without any signs.

Take down the "green rays", but it is Yun Dongxian's idea, for Xu Renda and others are incomprehensible, he insisted that this knife is the world's magic soldiers, these days may not be no one to pay attention, if you look for it and don't see it, it is inevitable to be suspicious, if you see through the "phantom body" thing, it is inevitable that because of the small loss, Xu Renda and others although reluctant, but also said that he but, had to agree.

It's just that they didn't know that when the green light was taken off from Ma Fubo's back and put into the hands of the "fake Ma Fubo", Yun Dongxian, who had been squatting beside Ma Fubo, silently looking at the face of Ma Fubo who had gradually fallen unconscious due to the effect of the "longevity talisman", still had some "words" in his heart that he couldn't tell them.

It wasn't until the three of them walked away quite tacitly that Yun Dongxian gently held Ma Fubo's right hand, which had begun to grow cold, and began to speak slowly in a very low voice.

"Fubo, I know you can hear it, the fourth child said, now your tongue is no longer good, but your brain is still clear and you can hear it."

"And I don't want to hear what you say, you just need to fall asleep peacefully and listen to me."

"You guessed it right, I deliberately put the green ray in the hands of the black sailor."

"This is also an opportunity, a chance for you to 'separate' from Qingyu, otherwise, that vicious and terrible thing may also bring 'misfortune' to you, just like the commander back then..."

"Although you didn't say it, I can see that you have gradually 'harmonized' with Qingyu, and you have gradually been able to 'call' Qingyu's Yuan Spirit."

"But that's not right, that's not right."

"The Yuan Spirit of the 'Killing Sword Qingluo', the 'Kui Wood Wolf', that crazy and bloodthirsty thing, it should not appear in the world again, that is also the wish of the commander back then."

"That crimson world, that blood-stained world, can't appear again, Fubo..."

"So, I'm going to separate this knife from you, so that you don't have a chance to combine with 'it' again, and then awaken its power."

"When all this is over, I want to tell Chongbo about those things, and then go home and live a good life."

“… If you can't let him know, that's okay. ”

"We're all old, Fubo, don't come out again, don't take this road anymore."

"Don't think about avenging us, live the rest of your life well, that's what we want."

"Sleep in peace, Fubo, my good brother."

"If there is an afterlife, let's be brothers again..."

When Yun Dongxian got up, Zhu Wendao also silently came to Ma Fubo's side, when he squatted down, like Fang Cai, and gently held Ma Fubo's right hand, Yun Dongxian didn't speak, gently, moved his steps, and retreated to a place where he couldn't hear the sound.

Everyone has his own "secrets", he can "die" with you, but he can't let you "know" these secrets, Yun Dongxian, who has just communicated with Ma Fubo, naturally understands this truth.

"Second brother, you have worked hard."

"As soon as we die, it's really hard for you to leave you alone to take care of everything."

"There are things, I have to tell you, because, I think, this time, I will not be spared, and if I don't say it, I will never have the opportunity to say it."

"This time, I didn't actually make up my mind temporarily, I had already made up my mind before I set off for the west, if I was really forced to use it, I must give it to my eldest brother or you, and I myself would never use it."

"Because, I know I can't stand it. I can't stand it and run away again. ”

"On the road this time, your attitude towards the third brother has gradually softened, only me, always hard and refusing to make any changes, you all see it, but you haven't said anything."

"I know, you all think that I can't forget the old things and can't forgive the third brother."

"But, second brother, haven't you thought about it? Even when you have gradually been able to let go of the old things, why can't I, I? ”

"Do you remember, second brother, back then, back then, the relationship between the third brother and me was the best..."

"Actually, he really didn't do anything, at that time, Guangshuai and they were definitely not saved, the third brother didn't say that, and he couldn't help them, but he would involve us all, although the boss didn't know about it, but I knew it very well."

"But, I still can't, I can't forgive him."

"Because, I can't forgive myself."

"You're surprised, second brother. But I beg you, please listen patiently, please try to control yourself, keep yourself awake. ”

"I must finish these words, otherwise, I won't be able to die later."

"Actually, I should have thanked the third brother, it was he who saved me and saved my reputation."

"If he is slow for half a day, it will not be him, but me."

"I've already written the legato essays, but I was unwell that day, so I missed the day. As a result, he was preempted by the third brother. ”

"Now, do you understand? Second brother? ”

"It should have been me, despised and spit on, hated and cursed, it should have been me, it was me..."

"On that day, I was very lucky, very happy, and I felt that I was lucky to get what I wanted, but not to pay the price I thought I would pay."

"When you got together to scold the third brother, I also scolded with you, although I hesitated to tell the truth, but after only a short moment of hesitation, I decided to keep my secret."

"I thought I was smart."

"It wasn't until much later that I realized I was wrong."

"I've paid the price: since then, I can't relax and laugh, I can't sleep calmly and comfortably. I can no longer appreciate the light beauty of the breeze and the bright moon, and I can no longer enjoy the thick taste of the mellow wine crab claws. ”

"Every time you lash out at the third brother and chase the second handsome, I will tremble, and I will suspect that you already know my secret."

"So, I was the first to stand out from the crowd, and the reason, you should understand by now, is not what I called grief back then, but fear, fear of you."

"After leaving, I felt a little better, but it took me a long time to get used to it."

"In the first days, I couldn't read, because I couldn't face the brilliant history without sweating; I can't write because I can't talk about benevolence, righteousness, morality, and not be naked. ”

I can't cultivate the path either, because I don't have that clear path heart anymore. ”

"It took me a long time to learn to hide myself, to learn not to expose myself because of external stimuli."

"It makes it harder for me to survive in this world, but it makes it harder for me to survive every long night."

"So, I hate the third brother, I can't forgive him, every night when I can't sleep, I hate him over and over again, hate why he moves so fast, hate why he replaces my role."

"I hate him, second brother, because he made me see myself clearly, my hypocrisy and cowardice, my own disguise, and my own pity."

"A day's delay, a moment of cowardice, in exchange for my twenty years of sleeplessness and twenty years of repentance."

"So, second brother, this time, I'd rather die than escape."

"I already know the consequences of fleeing."

“… That thing is more terrible than death, a hundredfold, a hundred times terrifying..."

"Second brother, you're almost asleep."

"When you wake up again, you won't see me."

"At that time, I was dead, but I can tell you that at that moment, I must have had a smile on my face."

"Because, I'm finally free."

"Second brother, these words of mine must be said, but I will not let the eldest brother, the third brother, and the fifth brother know."

"Because, even to death, I know that I am still a coward."

"I could die with them, but I don't have the courage to tell them the truth and ask for their forgiveness."

"I dare only tell you that a man who has no way to answer, who can't be angry with me."

"And second brother, even though this request is almost shameless, I still beg you."

"Second brother, please forgive me, forgive me..."

Zhu asked, and naturally no one else heard him. The tears that flickered in the corners of his eyes when he got up were only thought to be bursts of brotherly love.

In particular, when Zhu Wendao got up, on the hillside as far as his eye could see, the army of black water, which was as dense as ants, had already appeared...

A few moments later, the heavens and the yellow earth were all blood-colored.

Cheers, shouting, the black sailors who had already won the victory celebrated wildly, passed the five heads around, and cut the corpses of the five people wantonly, not caring at all, and the corpses of their comrades on the ground around them were nearly a hundred.

Naturally, the green ray has also become one of the most valuable trophies, and is in the hands of the strongest and most eye-catching of the black sailors. Attract the envy and jealousy of the surroundings. In the battle of Fang Cai, he successively cut off the head of Yun Dongxian and the left arm of Hu Yuji, and the new position of Heishui He has almost certainly fallen into his hands.

However, he didn't notice that when he pulled up the green rays, a faint green shadow escaped from the knife, and quietly, together with the blood that was gradually disappearing, dived into the soil.

Ground floor.

The man who was supposed to be "sleeping", when touched by the hot blood seeping from the ground, miraculously regained his consciousness and began to feel and judge everything around him.

Soon, he understood.

Understand the "facts", the ruthless "facts".

The fact that he was "angry" and "impulsive".

still remembered Yun Dongxian's entrustment, but it didn't help him calm his emotions.

Furious, he should have been cold to the earth, and he began to feel that the blood in his body was boiling and roaring.

That's the roar of vengeance!

Blood for blood!

In impulse, he forgot the "fact" that he had been sleeping underground, and he angrily raised his arms and waist, and was about to get up!

He didn't know Taoism, and he was even more bound by the longevity talisman, and his impulse should have been limited to the category of "thought", so when he found that he was really "upright", he was stunned after a moment of surprise.

(This, this is...)

Immediately, he discovered that the "self" standing upright completely ignored the existence of earth and stones, and at the same time, under the feet of "himself", another "self" was lying down with his eyes closed.

(Soul Departure?) But, how could it be...)

When he saw a green shadow flashing in front of him, he suddenly understood.

Finally understood.

(Turns out you're helping me.) )

(Yes.) )

The green shadow that was silently staring at him was a giant cyan wolf more than half a foot tall and more than ten feet long, with lush hair on its neck, like a lion, and its eyes seemed to be two top-notch emeralds, shining with a faint and mysterious light. Staring at him is like staring at a piece of bloody fresh meat.

(You haven't given up yet?) )

(I never give up.) )

(And, that man, he's not for me.) )

(Am I suitable?) )

(More suitable than Zhao Tong.) )

(Do you think you can succeed?) )

(Yes.) )

(They say no matter how much you do, you still have to get revenge.) )

(To take revenge, you need strength.) )

(If you want strength, you can only rely on me.) )

Before the last sentence was over, I saw the green shadow flicker, and the giant wolf had swept up, knocking his soul to the ground, biting his neck, and began to bite viciously.

The damage was inflicted on the soul, and that feeling was not much different from the physical injury, but without any resistance, a smile appeared on his face, an almost "terrifying" smile.

(As long as you can give me the strength to take revenge, then you can eat me in any way you like...)

At the same time as the soul body shattered, the giant wolf's body gradually dissolved, drifted into his body, and merged with it. Soon, the body sank into the soil again, until it sank several feet deep, and in the process of sinking, the roots of the trees in the surrounding soil bent and stretched one after another, winding around his body. Protecting him, and providing him with energy, to help him fall into a deeper "sleep".

And after he "wakes up", the humanoid demon wolf that coexists with blood and kills in the name of killing will reappear on the earth, adding more variables and creating more disasters to the already chaotic Great Xia land...

Before "falling asleep", his last consciousness was:

(… I'm sorry, big brother. )
