Chapter 717 The sea of bitterness is endless, and turning back is the shore
"His Royal Highness the Prince, news came from the Zhou Kingdom that Yuwen Xiaobo had been sent to Chang'an City, and Yuwen Shenju also returned alone when he saw that it was impossible to disobey, and now that the border troubles have been removed, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can sit back and relax!"
Murong Sanzang stood respectfully at the bottom of the hall and said with a smile. Although he was much older than Happy and had a reputation in the Qi army, he did not dare to be proud in front of this unfathomable prince. Fortunately, although he is happy to kill like hemp, he treats his own people the most kindly, so that Murong Sanzang does not have to walk on thin ice.
"Sit back and relax?" Happy lowered his eyebrows, shook his head and said: "People have no long-term concerns, they must have near-term worries, when can they really sit back and relax?" The wood is beautiful in the forest, and the wind will destroy it! This time, we defeated the Turks and forced the Zhou State to retreat, and the surrounding countries are bound to regard our country as a great enemy of life and death. β
"What the prince taught is that the last general is not thoughtful!" Murong Sanzang looked dumbfounded.
He waved his hand happily, didn't care, and said in a low voice: "General Murong, although the Zhou army has retreated, we can't relax a bit. This Dongyongzhou is the gateway of our country, and the stakes are very important, you must protect it! β
"His Royal Highness the Prince, rest assured, even if the last general is full of brains, he will guard Dongyongzhou for the prince!" Murong Sanzang's face was serious, and he was categorical.
"General Murong, please remember that you are the general of the empire, the guardian of the empire, you are not fighting for me, but for the thousands of people of Daqi!" Xing Xing stepped forward, looked at Murong Sanzang solemnly and solemnly, and said in a deep voice.
Looking at Xing's clear eyes without a trace of impurities, Murong Sanzang suddenly felt a stream of heat stirring in his body, making his whole person become inexplicably excited in an instant.
The so-called soldier dies for his confidant, although he is not a happy team, but the latter still gives him enough respect and trust, which is enough.
"Newspaperβ"
"Come in!" happily motioned for Murong Sanzang to get up, and then he shouted softly.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, an old monk came from outside the Fangcai Mansion, saying that he was your old man, and said that he would hand over this thing and this letter to you, and his subordinates did not dare to make a claim, so he came to ask the prince to decide." As he spoke, the messenger titheed the things in his hands, but it was a string of rosaries and a letter.
"Wait!"
Gao Xing was about to reach out to pick it up, but Murong Sanzang suddenly stopped in front of Gao Xing, and said with a solemn face: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the other party's origin is unknown, I'm afraid there is fraud, you must not take it lightly!" It's better to check it out first and see if there is any trickery! β
"General Murong has a heart!" He waved his hand happily and said indifferently: "I know it in my heart, you don't have to worry!" As he spoke, he didn't wait for Murong Sanzang to refute, he casually took the rosary and the letter in his hand, and then waved his hand to signal the soldier to retreat.
Murong Sanzang was frightened and nervous when he saw it on the side, for fear that there was some hidden weapon on this letter or rosary, or something highly poisonous, but fortunately, everything was as usual, his happy face was white and ruddy, and there was no discomfort at all, so he was relieved.
Seeing the rosary, happy heart had a faint guess about the old monk, seeing the signature under the letter, happy eyes narrowed slightly, a touch of doubt flashed on his face, and secretly said in his heart: "Sure enough, it's him!" β
Putting the letter and rosary in his arms, he happily turned to look at Murong Sanzang and said, "General Murong, tomorrow I will go north, please here!" β
Murong Sanzang was happy to mention the matter of the letter, and even if he had more doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask, so he could only reply respectfully: "The last general has orders, if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has no other orders, the last general will retire!" β
Waving his hand happily, waiting for Murong Sanzang to leave, he slowly sat back on the chair, his originally breezy face suddenly became solemn, and his eyes flickered. After a long time, he suddenly got up happily, removed the white clothes on his body, quickly changed into a wide green clothes, and then puffed up his face a few times, and suddenly, the handsome and dashing boy became a middle-aged man with a yellow face.
After a closer inspection, he nodded happily and disappeared behind the screen in a flash.
Thirty miles east of Dongyongzhou City, mass graves. The strange rocks here are craggy, and because it is a place where the bones of the dead are buried, it is inevitable that there is some gloomy atmosphere, and there are few traces. Tonight, however, there was a gray-clothed man in a hat standing with his hands in his hands, like a stone statue, motionless, allowing the gust of wind to lift up some of his worn clothes. The cold moonlight sprinkled on him, a miserable white, which made him a little more weird.
"Master Gao, since you're here, why don't you show up and see you? Have you forgotten your deceased after a few months? β
In the whimpering wind, a thick and ethereal voice sounded suddenly, far and near, fluctuating, especially strange and terrifying in this bleak environment.
"Haha, Master Zhixuan's skills are better than in the past, it's really gratifying!" With a clear laughter, a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi suddenly flashed twenty meters away from the man in gray, who was dressed up happily. As he spoke, he slowly walked towards the man in gray.
"The old man is old, how can he compare to Gao Gongzi in his prime?" The man in gray turned around and said tepidly. The night breeze stirred the scarf on the hat, and his face was also bright and dark, and he couldn't see it really.
"Master Jihyun is serious!" Happily chuckled, stood ten meters in front of Zhixuan, and said with some doubts: "I have had several relationships with the master, even if I can't make friends, but there is also some friendship, why don't you go directly to the city if the master wants to see me, you and I sit opposite each other, and talk while drinking tea, isn't it pleasant to come to this mass grave, it's really a big scene!" β
Zhi Xuan smiled indifferently: "The red dust of the world is not vain, this mass grave and the Assassin Mansion, this breeze and fragrant tea are no different in Lao Gao's heart. Gao Gongzi is a great wise man, does he still care about this appearance? β
"The master is worthy of being a high-ranking monk, the kid admires, admires!" Xing Xing clenched his fists slightly, and said softly: "I don't know what happened when the master asked me to come out, isn't it really to suck the wind and drink the dew again and comprehend the way of heaven?" β
Ji Hyun didn't answer and asked, "What does Childe think?" β
He smiled happily: "The kid is young and knowledgeable, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the master." Although the breeze is clear and the dew is pure, it can't reach a steamed bun after all, and it can't fill the belly! β
Zhixuan froze slightly, his expression suddenly became compassionate and miserable, and he said slowly: "Gao Gongzi, you have a wisdom root, which is rare in the world, so why bother to be nostalgic for this mortal world, and spend a lot of time in plain Lang?" β
"Whatever the master wants to say, please speak up!" The smile on his happy face faded a little, but his face was still calm and calm.
"Gao Gongzi has a good temperament, excellent talent, and has a relationship with my Buddha, which is a good material for cultivation, but he is deeply trapped in the red dust, his hands are full of blood, and his karma is riddled with obstacles, so if he continues, he will probably fall into the hell of a thousand catastrophes!"
Zhixuan Bao's face was solemn, and his voice was rich and majestic, resounding in his heart like a morning bell and a dusk drum: "Amitabha! The bitter sea is endless, and turning back is the shore. Fame and fortune are all vain, and they become empty in a blink of an eye, why don't you put it down early and return with the old man, he will achieve positive results in his cultivation every day, and his merits are immeasurable! Amitabha"
In Jihyun's voice, the wind stopped, and the eerie atmosphere suddenly disappeared, replaced by peace and tranquility.
The blankness in his happy eyes flashed, his eyebrows were raised slightly, he smiled, and pointed to the barren grass under his feet and said, "Master, in your opinion, is this barren grass happy or sad?" β
Jihyun was slightly stunned and replied, "I don't know." β
"If the master does not know the joy and sorrow of the wild grass, how can he know my joy and anger? The master always says that cultivation is a positive result, but he doesn't know what a positive result is. Is it to become an immortal, or to live forever? Happy raised his head, looked at Jihyun with burning eyes, and said loudly: "I thought that what I did was in my heart, even if there was an abyss of hell in front of me, I had no fear, no regrets!" β
As the last word fell, a barren and dead aura suddenly emanated from Happy Happy's body, swept away like a hurricane, and dispelled the peaceful and quiet aura on the hill.
"I'm happy, you are so obsessed, you will only fall deeper and deeper, destroy others and harm yourself!" Zhixuan's complexion changed slightly, and his voice suddenly echoed like a bronze bell Da Lu, and the solemn and peaceful aura once again enveloped the earth, with him as the center, a radius of ten meters suddenly lit up, as if it could compete with the bright moon.
"You are proud of yourself with sharp weapons, killing on a large scale, and you are in a desperate situation without knowing it, and if you don't realize it at this time, when will you stay? Do you really have to fall into the devil's path to repent? β
Happy eyebrows raised, and reprimanded without hesitation: "Old monk, don't say it so high-sounding!" Wouldn't there be no war without self in this world? People outside your own side don't know how to retreat from the world, but you have to be nosy! Your Buddhism is arrogant, and your actions are not necessarily stronger than those of the Demon Gate. There is no you in the world, so it must be quieter! The people still know how to produce, respect heaven and earth, ghosts and gods, you monk, have nothing to do, do power and blessing, and live is just Lang Waste food! β
"Ignorant child, rampant!" Ji Hyun was furious, his beard trembled, his eyes were red, his robe was bulging, and the momentum around him suddenly flourished, like a mountain and a sea of joy.
"Akame King Kong, such a big name, but I don't know what my ability is?" Happy and fearless, standing proudly, the barren and dead aura on his body became more and more intense and deep, blocking Zhixuan's momentum five meters away, and he couldn't enter an inch.
"Whew-"
Finally, Zhixuan's momentum climbed to the peak, the hat on his head suddenly shattered, and under the moonlight, Zhixuan's whole person seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light, especially the lifeless head was even brighter.
On the other hand, happiness is completely different, but the whole person seems to come from the dark abyss, obviously there is there, but his body seems to be shrouded in a layer of black fog, so that people can't see clearly, even the moonlight doesn't seem to be able to touch his body, it's very weird.
"Look at the move!"
Seeing that the momentum could not overwhelm the joy, Ji Hyun screamed, his body suddenly swept out like lightning, and the big fist of the sand bowl smashed towards the door of the happy face without any fancy, and it came in a blink of an eye.
Happy and solemn, he snorted lightly and waved his palms to greet him.
"Boom!"
A deafening loud bang rang out from the hill, and for a while the wind blew fiercely, and the sand flew away, while the bodies of Joy and Jihyun were thrown in the opposite direction like cannonballs.
"Akame King Kong, it really lives up to its name, haha!" With a long laugh, the happy body disappeared into the night without a trace. Only Ji Hyun was left standing on the hill, looking dejected, not knowing what he was thinking.
