Chapter 111: The Critical Robber
"Since there is such a great danger in the lower Cunzài, why doesn't the Immortal Master try to kill the Lower Being? It's like a sword that loses an ear. ”
After being silent for a while, Zhang Huang asked Fifth Gong Yuan a crucial question.
Unexpectedly, the Fifth Gong Yuan glanced at Zhang Huang with a smile and asked, "How can Xiaoyou be sure that Poor Dao has never killed you?" As he spoke, he flicked the sleeves of his robe, conjured a pair of Go out of thin air, and raised his hand to signal Zhang Huang to sit down and play with him.
Zhang Huang's face was full of astonishment when he heard this, and he was very puzzled, and after thinking for a while, he sat down on the futon he had been on according to what Fifth Gong Yuan said.
Zhang Huang is in charge of the sunspot, and the fifth palace is in charge of the white son.
However, Zhang Huang's mind was not on the chess game in front of him, and after playing a chess piece at random, he would concentrate on waiting for the next step of the fifth palace yuan.
Sure enough, after the fifth palace yuan held the white son in his hand, he glanced at Zhang Huang with a little narrowness, and said with a bit of ridicule and teasing, "As of this time, in fact, Xiaoyou has died 36,000 times......
"Bang-"
The sunspot in Zhang Huang's hand accidentally fell on the chessboard, he hurriedly straightened the chess pieces, and immediately looked at the fifth palace Yuan Dao with an incredulous face, "Three...... Thirty-six thousand? I...... Died so many times? The immortal master doesn't want to laugh with him. ”
The fifth palace Yuan slowly and methodically made another step, and said lightly, "How can the poor Dao be joking with Xiaoyou? …… Of the 36,000 times, half of them were killed by the poor Dao, Xiaoyou thinks this is also a joke? ”
Zhang Huang held his breath in fright when he heard this, and looked at the fifth Gong Yuan in amazement, until the fifth Gong Yuan opened his mouth to urge, and then he used his slightly trembling right hand to hold a black spot and put it on the chessboard at will.
"That'...... So why am I still alive? Swallowing his saliva, Zhang Huang said cautiously.
"This is also what the poor road is puzzled about." Under a white child, the fifth palace Yuan said in a deep voice, "And every time Xiaoyou dies not long after." This yang world returned to the first month of the first year of Jianning. ”
"At the beginning of the first month of the first year of Jianning?"
"It's the time of Xiaoyou's birth."
"......" Zhang Huang opened his mouth, and couldn't help but sigh a little in his heart, thinking about it, he never thought that he had died so many times.
Licking his lips, Zhang Huang asked, "That...... How did the more than 36,000 times die in the next place? ”
Fifth Gong Yuan pondered for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Poor Dao killed you 11,600 times, and Heavenly Sword Restoration killed you 2,390 times. The earth sword lost ears and killed you six thousand four hundred and ten times, and the rest of the sword confucians...... In addition, when Taishan rescued Zang Xuangao's father, there were 342 times when he died at the hands of Du Lieutenant Ma Yan, joined the Guangling army 7,000 times, and was killed by the rebel generals 130 times...... He was killed more than 600 times when he was invincible to the other party, 392 times when he was in Luoyang, and more than 5,000 times during the chaos of the world...... Also, he starved to death thirty-two times on the way...... And so on and so forth. ”
"......" listened to the fifth house Yuan list the cause of his death. Zhang Huang was only dumbfounded when he heard it, especially when he heard that he had starved to death thirty-two times on the way, he suddenly couldn't cry or laugh, and muttered. "When I went to Yingchuan from Guangling, I felt like I was almost starving to death, it turned out to be ...... It turned out that I really starved to death......"
Seeing Zhang Huang smirking at himself, Fifth Gong Yuan couldn't laugh. Looking at Zhang Huang intently, he felt a little embarrassed when he saw Zhang Huang in the end, and asked seriously after coughing. "Every time it is after death, this world ...... Does the Yang world immediately go back in time? ”
"That's not true," Fifth Gong Yuan shook his head and replied without concealment, "At first, Poor Dao was the reason because of Xiaoyou's death, but after 30,000 times, Poor Dao found that the life and death of Zhang Jiao was the most fundamental reason for the retrospection of this Yang World. ”
"Zhang Jiao of Taiping Road?" Zhang Huang asked in surprise.
"Not bad!" The fifth palace yuan shook his sleeves and thought, "This is the 'robbery' between Poor Dao and Zhang Jiao, and it must end when one of them falls." However, Poor Dao has directly and indirectly killed Zhang Jiao tens of thousands of times, but the result is ...... Yangshi still goes back to the first year of Jianning. Later, Poor Dao felt that this was inappropriate, so since 12,300 times, Poor Dao changed his previous mind and let Zhang Jiao be a disaster, but for some reason, decades later, Yangshi still went back to the first year of Jianning...... After repeating this dozens of times, Poor Dao realized that it was because Zhang Jiao's longevity was over. ”
"I didn't understand ...... below"
Glancing at Zhang Huang, Fifth Gong Yuan said in a deep voice, "All in all, I don't know why, the Heavenly Dao must evolve the path that Poor Dao and Zhang Jiao will follow after they have survived the 'robbery', and among them, Xiaoyou is the key to the 'robbery' between Poor Dao and Zhang Jiao...... Xiaoyou, do you know that there is a saying for 'robbery' in chess? He gestured to the chessboard.
Zhang Huang found out that there was a catastrophe on the chessboard at some point, that is, in the same place, the fifth palace yuan could play a piece to eat Zhang Huang's chess pieces, and Zhang Huang could also play a piece to eat the chess pieces of the fifth palace yuan. (Author's words: I can't explain it clearly, and if I don't understand it, go to search for it.) )
"Little friend, it's this 'robber'!"
With a snap, he put the chess pieces in his hand on the chessboard, and the fifth palace said meaningfully.
Zhang Huang frowned when he heard this, after all, he had too many things to digest and understand, but there was one thing that he couldn't understand.
"But...... There is no intersection with Zhang Jiao, the great sage and good teacher of Taiping Dao. …… Or is it that the immortal master is still the righteous father who insists on Zhang Jiao? Zhang Huang asked the Fifth Gong Yuan Dao in confusion.
Fifth Gong Yuan pondered for a moment and asked, "Dare to ask Xiaoyou's father-in-law's name?" ”
Zhang Huang smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said, "It's not that I'm deliberately hiding it, I really can't think of it." ”
Fifth Gong Yuan didn't blame him, he raised his hand and pointed at Zhang Huang's forehead, and suddenly, he saw a few rays of light blooming on Zhang Huang's head, and then he heard a crisp bang.
"Now?" Fifth Gong Yuan asked quietly.
"Right now...... Hey? Zhang Huang showed a slight surprise on his face, because he found that he could suddenly remember his father-in-law's name.
At this time, he suddenly saw a hint of surprise on the face of the fifth Gong Yuan, and muttered to himself, "Strange, what is he doing here?" ”
As soon as the words fell, I saw that the sleeves of the fifth palace yuan flicked, and Zhang Huang and the Heavenly Imperial Corridor suddenly disappeared without a trace, and the entire dim and inexplicable space also became fragmented. The surrounding scenery has once again changed back to the top floor of the ordinary Qingcanglou attic.
After a while, a middle-aged man dressed in a luxurious brocade robe stepped up to the attic, this person was estimated to be thirty or forty years old, and his face was very well maintained, as if he was only in his twenties, but his sideburns were slightly gray. This person seems to be kind and kind, but there is a hint of fierceness flashing in his eyes from time to time.
"I have admired the name of the immortal master for a long time, and I was able to see the immortal face in person today, which is really a blessing for three lives!" The person who came said to the fifth Gong Yuan, who was meditating on the futon.
"It turned out to be Zhang Rang and Father-in-law Zhang." The fifth palace replied in a flat tone.
Originally. The middle-aged man in a luxurious brocade dress is now the most powerful eunuch in Luoyang, and the most famous of the ten permanent servants.
"Immortal Master, I don't know what His Majesty pleaded with the Immortal Master a few days ago, what will the Immortal Master do?"
It turned out that a few years ago, Liu Hong, the son of the Han Dynasty, saw that there were continuous disasters in various parts of the world, so he implored the fifth palace of the immortal master to personally take the stage to worship the heavens, begging for the prosperity of the Han Dynasty. The wind and rain are smooth. However, the fifth palace yuan was most concerned about Zhang Jiao and Zhang Huang's matter, so he ignored the court's plea, but he didn't expect that today he would be made by Zhang Rang, the most powerful eunuch in the palace.
Fifth Gong Yuan glanced at Zhang Rang faintly and asked. "How is the Son of Heaven?"
"Your Majesty has to enjoy the fortune of heaven, and there is no doubt about Antai." Zhang Rang replied with a smile.
"Humph!" Fifth Gong Yuan sneered when he heard this, and said unhappily, "Deceive the flattering people who hide it." Isn't it a bully to the poor, and I don't know about your evil deeds?! …… In the name of the Son of Heaven, you wantonly collect and scrape the people's wealth, not to mention, but also instigate the king to go astray. It seems that you and other great traitors dare to appear in front of the poor road? ”
"Why not?" Seeing that the Fifth Gong Yuan was angry, Zhang Rang smiled without changing his face, "The immortal master is in charge of the general trend, how can he care about the subsections?" As long as the world is still the world of the Han Dynasty, what does it matter if I wait to eat some and use some of it? …… The old slave thought that the immortal master would not blame for such a trivial matter, right? ”
[……]
Fifth Gong Yuan was secretly surprised when he heard this, pondering Zhang Rang's words, but didn't say anything. But seeing Zhang Rang talking to himself, "It seems that the immortal master is indeed busy with immortal affairs, and the matter of sacrificing to the heavens, the old slave thinks that it is better to hand it over to the Confucian Academy." ”
The fifth palace was silent, perhaps acquiescing to Zhang Rang's words.
And at this time, he saw Zhang Rang's eyes roll slightly, and he chuckled, "I heard that a little ghost named Zhang Huang entered the Qingcang Building of the Immortal Master today?" ”
Fifth Gong Yuan's eyes suddenly changed, he stared at Zhang Rang in disbelief, and asked in a deep voice, "What are you asking for?" ”
Zhang Rang didn't answer, and after laughing a few times, he bowed his hand and said, "Since this is the case, the old slave will not bother the immortal master, and the old slave will retire." As he spoke, he raised his head and said meaningfully, "Old slave, I will still come to visit the immortal master." ”
"......" looked at Zhang Rang chuckling and turned to leave, even if it was the fifth palace yuan, he couldn't guess what this guy was planning.
At the same time, Zhang Huang, who was changed by the fifth palace yuan, was actually still in the imperial corridor that day, seeing that the fifth palace yuan might disappear in front of him for some reason, Zhang Huang hesitated for a while, and finally hesitated to call out the name of his father-in-law.
Zhang ...... Untie! ”
However, to his surprise, there was silence in the Heavenly Corridor.
"How so?" Zhang Huang, who was taken aback, muttered to himself, "This is obviously my father's name, why didn't this Heavenly Imperial Corridor fly out of the book like before?" …… Isn't that my father's real name? ”
"It doesn't matter if it's my real name or not. …… In fact, even if you don't know the other party's name, as long as you know the other party's appearance, the Tianyu Corridor will still show it. If there is not the slightest sign of the Imperial Cloister today, it means that this person does not exist. When Zhang Huang reacted, Fifth Gong Yuan was already by his side at some point, and said in a normal tone.
"And there is no zài? The immortal master doesn't want to say that he is deliberately deceiving the immortal master, right? Zhang Huang frowned and said.
Fifth Gong Yuan smiled faintly, "Isn't the Heavenly Imperial Corridor also able to show Xiaoyou's life deeds?" ”
Zhang Huang nodded as if he didn't understand when he heard the words, and suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and shouted, "Zhang Jiao! ”
Maybe it was to approve Zhang Huang's clever move, the corners of Fifth Gong Yuan's mouth flashed a little smile, but immediately, he shook his head and said lightly, "It's useless." ”
"Useless? Isn't this coming? Seeing that the Heavenly Imperial Corridor really flew out of a book and put it in Zhang Huang's hand, Zhang Huang glanced at the Fifth Gong Yuan in puzzlement.
Fifth Gong Yuan closed his eyes and said lightly, "Xiaoyou will know the reason when you open it. ”
When Zhang Huang heard this, he opened the book that recorded Zhang Jiao's life and deeds, and was shocked to find it. There was not a word in the book.
At this time, the Fifth Gong Yuan also raised his hand and called, "Fifth Gong Yuan." ”
Before the words fell, another book flew into Zhang Huang's hand, and similar to before, the book that was supposed to record the life and deeds of the fifth palace Yuan was also empty, exactly the same as Zhang Jiao.
"What's going on?" Zhang Huang asked in surprise.
The fifth palace yuan groaned for a while and said. "Poor Road...... It is inconvenient to inform, as for Zhang Jiao...... The poor road is also unclear. ”
[Isn't that the same as not saying it?] ]
Zhang Huang glanced at Fifth Gong Yuan with a strange expression.
Probably noticing Zhang Huang's strange expression, Fifth Gong Yuan coughed slightly embarrassed, and changed the topic and said, "Xiaoyou, have you ever summoned your stepfather's life book?" ”
Zhang Huang didn't speak, and directly showed Fang Cai's strange phenomenon to the fifth palace yuan, only to see him shouting the name of his stepfather Zhang Jie, but the Heavenly Imperial Corridor did not show it in the slightest.
"......" glanced at Zhang Huang, and then at the biographical book in Zhang Huang's hand that recorded Zhang Jiao's life deeds. There was a slight doubt in the eyes of the fifth palace yuan.
Zhang Huang next to him saw that the fifth palace Yuan Mu was thoughtful, so he naturally didn't dare to disturb and stood quietly aside.
I don't know how long it took, but Fifth Gong Yuan shook his head and sighed. "That's it, there will always be a day when the water will come out." After that, he casually glanced at Zhang Huang a few times, and was even more sure in his heart: this robbery between him and Zhang Jiao. The key is undoubtedly Zhang Huang's robber!
Thinking of this, Fifth Gong Yuan beckoned Zhang Huang to sit down again, and asked with a pleasant face. "I wonder what Xiaoyou's plans for the future?"
"I haven't thought about it yet." Zhang Huang shook his head and said with a wry smile, "I need a little time to sort out what the Immortal Master said about ......."
"Hmm." Fifth Gong Yuan nodded.
"By the way, Immortal Master, I really died thirty-six thousand times?" Zhang Huang couldn't help but ask with a bitter face.
Fifth Gong Yuan shook his head with a smile and affirmed, "Yes, it's thirty-six thousand...... Every time you go down the mountain at the age of fifteen, it's been more than 500,000 years. ”
"What...... The immortal master even remembers? Zhang Huang said in shock.
Fifth Gong Yuan smiled faintly, nodded and said, "The world naturally doesn't know, but Poor Dao remembers it clearly. ”
"For such a long time, isn't the immortal master lonely?" Zhang Huang asked curiously.
A hint of discoloration flashed in the eyes of the fifth Gongyuan, and he muttered melancholy, "Maybe there was a little loneliness." ”
Zhang Huang tilted his head and looked at the Fifth Gong Yuan a few times, and muttered, "For more than 500,000 years, I really don't know how the Immortal Master came over." …… By the way, the tens of thousands of times before the next one, have you ever talked to the immortal master like this? ”
"We've talked twenty-three times."
"Whew." Zhang Huang couldn't help but feel a little deflated, and said with a wry smile, "In other words, if you unfortunately die in Xia at this time, in another ten years, you will still come here?" ”
As if he had seen through Zhang Huang's thoughts, Fifth Gong Yuan said with a little joking, "If Xiaoyou dies a few more times, I'm afraid there will be many changes." ”
"Change?" Zhang Huang looked puzzled.
"Do you know what practice makes perfect?"
"It's about doing one thing over and over again, and then ......"
"Not bad." Fifth Gong Yuan nodded, and said with a little melancholy, "In the memory of Poor Dao, the original Great Han, those martial artists were only a little more powerful than ordinary people, and Mo Ru has never possessed such excellent technology as it is now...... Every time Yang Shi goes back in time, it seems that he has returned to the beginning, but in fact it is not...... Human memories can be erased, but the reactions of human bodies are more or less preserved...... In the operation of the Heavenly Dao, there will be times when things go wrong. ”
[Huh?] Could it be that the reason why the martial artists in this era are so powerful, and the reason why Moru's technology is so developed, is because this world has been reset 36,000 times? Good fellow, my butterfly fanned its storm big enough......]
Zhang Huang was dumbfounded.
"Fortunately, there weren't many people who had contact with Xiaoyou before...... Otherwise, I'm afraid the whole world will really be chaotic. Fifth Gong Yuan said with a sigh.
[I've died 36,000 times, you tell me I'm lucky?] ]
Zhang Huang glanced at the Fifth Gong Yuan with a strange expression, and asked puzzledly, "Why did the Immortal Master say that?" ”
"Xiaoyou still remember the biographies of Chen Zhi and Chen Shuzhi?"
"Yes."
"After this son came into contact with Xiaoyou, even the Heavenly Imperial Corridor cannot survey his future now. Think about it, what if there are more and more such people? In the end, the entire world's Heavenly Imperial Corridor can no longer be surveyed? ”
"Immortal Master means ......"
"At that time, the Heavenly Dao will exist in name only. …… This is a catastrophe that the poor Dao tried his best to avoid, so he killed 10,000 friends ...... before."
"If you have it, the immortal master won't mention that matter again." Zhang Huang interrupted Fifth Gong Yuan's words in a cold sweat, and then asked, "I don't know what the Immortal Master wants to do?" ”
Fifth Gong Yuan glanced at Zhang Huang deeply, and Zhengse said, "It's not what Poor Dao wants Xiaoyou to do, but what Xiaoyou wants to do." …… Xiaoyou is the most critical 'robber' in this 'robbery'! ”
"Me?"
"Ask your heart. …… Poor Dao has a premonition, this time, I'm afraid it will be the final robbery between Poor Dao and Zhang Jiao. ”
After the fifth palace yuan said this, he sent Zhang Huang, who had an ignorant expression, out of the Qingcang Building and meditated on the futon alone.
Suddenly, Fifth Gong Yuan opened his eyes.
"Zhang Rang!"
The Celestial Corridor flickered and disappeared, and nothing was shown.
couldn't help but show a little understanding on the face of the fifth palace yuan.
"I see...... I see......" (To be continued......
