143 Stormy Waves
It's late autumn.
This season is the busiest time for the crab farmers at the foot of Buzhou Mountain, and after more than half a year of busyness, the hairy crabs harvested during the autumn harvest are the most delicious, and naturally they are also the most popular among practitioners.
Today, the influence of the imperial family on the cultivators of the Zhou Dynasty is still very great, especially in these aspects. Regardless of the level of cultivation, most practitioners retain some of the appetites left over from their mundane days.
In the words of the little imperial uncle, cultivation is not for the sake of cultivation itself, but for a better life. If even the most basic things such as appetite have to be cut off, then what is the point of practicing?
This phrase is of course sought after by most practitioners.
Therefore, it is difficult for the cultivation world of the Terran Dynasty to be completely separated from ordinary people.
Of course, this is a good thing, ordinary people can see the cultivation world, and if they have a vision, they will have the desire to practice, and replenish a steady stream of fresh blood for the Zhou Dynasty cultivation world. For example, on Buzhou Mountain, there are many crab farmers who practice, and even some crab farmers practice to better catch crabs.
It's just that today, the faces of these crab farmers are not very good-looking, and even the inns and restaurants at the foot of the mountain on weekdays are almost no business.
Everyone knows that it's because of the mountains.
The original business of this restaurant was very good, the shopkeeper of the restaurant himself was a crab farmer, and Danqiusheng often came here to eat in the past, but he did not order 20 hairy crabs in a row as he did today.
Three stubborn warriors sat across from him.
The Emperor said that it was an invitation, if it was really an invitation, why should he let the people of the Dangkou Army come to invite.
It's still so swaggering, please.
It was still General Long Wu, who had 1.2 million Dangkou troops, who came to invite him personally.
Danqiu tasted the crab roe in his mouth, he had never eaten it so greedily, because it was likely that he would never eat it again.
"It is fortunate to let the general come to the door in person, Danqiu is fortunate to have three lives. ”
The middle-aged man led by the three was Qu Hongyi, the general of Longwu.
From the perspective of military rank, Qu Hongyi is second only to Wang Xuance, and is on the same level as Southeast Tilt and Jin Buyan. But everyone knows that the 1.2 million Dangkou army is under the command of this great general, if he really just wants to invite a Danqiu student, naturally there is no need for Qu Hongyi to go out in person.
This is the first time that the emperor in the Ziyang Palace, who has been silent for more than twenty years, has shown his sword.
Danqiu was not in a hurry to eat raw, and it looked like he was deliberately stalling for time.
But Qu Hongyi did not urge him, because this was what His Majesty meant.
He said, "I believe that those things have nothing to do with Elder Dan, and if possible, Qu will try to keep Elder Dan safe." ”
Dan Qiusheng suddenly laughed, and the crab roe at the corner of his mouth made his smile a little funny and ridiculous.
"Dan is a member of the Seven Star Sect, so does it matter if it doesn't matter?"
"It seems that His Majesty's expectation is really good, Elder Dan does know something. ”
Dan Qiusheng wiped the crab roe from the corner of his mouth, looked at the plane leaves outside the house, the forest dyed Buzhou Mountain is really beautiful, and he misses it very much, he wants to engrave this picture in his mind.
And then take away.
He shook his head, as if recalling the most careless of things.
"Your Majesty, he is an ambitious man, and so is his uncle, but they have different ways of realizing their ambitions from the third prince. Uncle Xiaohuang's matter, my Zhou Dynasty's cultivation world and ordinary people are treacherous, Your Majesty can endure for more than 20 years without saying a word, I am afraid that these things that Dan Qiusheng knows will be difficult to satisfy His Majesty's ambitions. ”
Dan Qiusheng watched Qu Hongyi speak slowly, just like a homely affair between the most ordinary friends.
But both know that this is not homely.
More like a last word.
......
......
If a few people were in a hurry, they would actually only need three or five days, or even faster, to reach Fengqi.
But whether it was Dan Qiusheng or Qu Hongyi, they all slowed down their pace.
Today, it is out of the range of Buzhou Mountain.
Qu Hongyi looked at the towering and steep peaks behind him, if the one from the Heart Dao Seven Star Sect wanted to make a move, now should be the best time. Once out of Jianghuai Province, with His Majesty's control over Fengqi, it would be difficult for Dao Zun to find an opportunity.
So Qu Hongyi picked an inn and let the two deputy generals and Dan Qiusheng rest temporarily.
It's just a hurry, where is there any need to rest for a big thing like Qu Hongyi who has passed through the Xuan Realm? It is the two deputy generals, and they are both cultivators of the Taichu Realm.
This is obvious.
The Emperor of the People was never worried about Daozun's move, and Qu Hongyi was not worried either. On the contrary, if Dao Venerable can really calm down, they may have no ironclad evidence.
Even though Dan Qiusheng may know something, after all, many years have passed, and clues are only clues after all.
The sky was cloudless, the road was clear, and everything was as calm as it seemed.
Dao Zun didn't make a move, and even the Seven Star Sect didn't react in the slightest.
This was somewhat unexpected by Qu Hongyi, was he very sure that His Majesty could not follow those clues? Or was Dan Qiusheng willing to keep some secrets for him?
In the afternoon, Qu Hongyi and Dan Qiusheng continued on their way.
The two talked about a few things, about the Seven Star Sect, about His Majesty, and even about the Purple Emperor.
This is how the day passes. The Seven Star Sect was calm as usual, and the Dangkou army did not move, at least on the surface, the Terran Dynasty was still calm.
However, in the evening, the apparent bottleneck was finally broken by a visitor.
Looking at the sword cultivation whose clothes were already very tattered, washed and washed, and mended and mended, a trace of surprise finally appeared in Qu Hongyi's eyes.
"Lu Qingshan?"
......
In fact, from many aspects, the big and small things that have happened in the Terran Dynasty over the years, the Little Emperor Uncle, the Ghost Clan, the Shanjian City and the remnants of the previous dynasty, the Guiyuan Sword Sect is the most suspicious.
Because of this, the Guiyuan Sword Sect is the least likely.
Lu Qingshan is no longer the little prisoner of the Guozi Prison back then, and there is no longer the amazing and gorgeous third prince in the current Terran Dynasty.
That's why Qu Hongyi couldn't figure out that Lu Qingshan would come here.
This incident is an opportunity for the Guiyuan Sword Sect, the Human Emperor has turned his target to the Seven Star Sect, and they may not be able to wait for another twenty years, two hundred years.
But Lu Qingshan came.
No matter what the reason is, the Human Emperor's attention will be refocused on the Guiyuan Sword Sect.
This has all kinds of disadvantages and no benefits, the number of sword cultivators is too small, more than a hundred sword cultivators, compared to the more than one million Dangkou army of the Zhou Dynasty, it is like a lonely boat.
So Qu Hongyi planned to talk to this Sword Venerable.
......
When Lu Qingshan came, he was carrying the purple and green swords.
Although this Sword Venerable rarely shows up, the three of them are not strangers to each other, and Qu Hongyi and Dan Qiusheng know some of Lu Qingshan's habits.
For example, Lu Qingshan once worked as a little beggar for a period of time, living on the streets, and he was not guaranteed day and night. Even though he has become a sword venerable now, his life is extremely simple, and it is said that he can wear a single dress for more than ten years.
He also has a habit.
Seldom out of the sword.
Lu Qingshan is probably a sword cultivator who pushes forward a thousand years and pushes back a thousand years, and he can solve problems with his hands and resolutely do not use his sword.
The reason is that many people know that the Zhou Dynasty had two purple and blue twin swords. Compared to Zidian Qingshuang and his master, Jian Zun not only had a slight gap in strength, but also did some wrong things.
This was regarded as a great shame by Lu Qingshan, in fact, many sword cultivators also had this habit, for example, Jian San back then, if he couldn't win Jian Yi in a day, he would use the name Jian San for the rest of his life.
Qu Hongyi took a deep breath and said, "You shouldn't have come." ”
The Guiyuan Sword Sect was far away in Jiangguan Province, and Lu Qingshan was able to arrive here within a day, so he must have made a decision as soon as he got the news.
This decision will put him on the opposite side of the human emperor.
Lu Qingshan looked at Qu Hongyi, then his gaze shifted to Dan Qiusheng, and then he smiled and asked, "Elder Dan, are you afraid of death?"
This question was asked very unexpectedly.
Lu Qingshan's smile was even more unexpected, so that Dan Qiusheng was stunned.
Although most of the sword cultivators are not good at expressing themselves, they still have emotions, but Lu Qingshan, the sword venerable, seems to have never heard him laugh since the incident of the third prince more than twenty years ago.
Lu Qingshan smiled, and Dan Qiusheng also smiled very heartily, "Dan is naturally afraid of death, very afraid of death, but it also depends on why he died." If it is said that I will not be able to refine the pill and enjoy hairy crabs in the future, then it is better to die on such a dark day. ”
Dan Qiusheng's words have a twofold meaning.
If a practitioner has the mind to take care of the appetite of the mouth, it is naturally because the world is peaceful and the emperor is prosperous.
"Elder Dan and my hero see the same thing, after today, others can continue to refine the pill, and Buzhou Mountain will also be rich in hairy crabs. ”
When Lu Qingshan said this, Qu Hongyi already felt a little.
This is indeed very in line with Lu Qingshan's character.
So he said, "As soon as you strike with your sword, you can no longer compromise." ”
Lu Qing looked at him and said seriously, "When he goes, he is really uncompromising." ”
Qu Hongyi sighed, "It seems that Your Majesty's judgment is really right, but with your sword, the Seven Star Sect and Your Majesty will be at peace, but have you ever thought about the future situation of yourself and the Guiyuan Sword Sect." ”
Needless to say, as long as the sword is struck, it will be regarded as a provocation to the Dangkou army and the human emperor. Even if he is a sword cultivator who has passed through the Xuan Realm, there is only one end.
Eternal Night Prison.
In the future, if the Heavenly Prison can win the Dao weapon, it may have Lu Qingshan's help.
As for the Guiyuan Sword Sect......
Lu Qingshan's eyes were like lightning and finally paused.
But it's only for a moment.
The purple and blue swords had already begun to hum.
"Your Majesty is a male lord, for more than two hundred years, I have never doubted it, so you have to help me tell Your Majesty that after I die, please treat him well to the Guiyuan Sword Sect, which is already the only sword cultivation inheritance in the Zhou Dynasty. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Qingshan's eyes had begun to sharpen, and his voice was as bright as a bell.
"In the past, the world only knew about the Fish Intestine Sword and the Purple Electric Green Frost but didn't know my Purple Ying Qingsuo, today, I, Lu Qingshan, want the world to know what sword cultivation is. ”
