Chapter 14: The Choice of Running Hall and Emperor Chu
I'm running out of time. This sentence should have an obvious meaning when used in the conversation of a hurried passer-by. But at this moment, the dialogue between Feng Zhan and Feng Ti Li has just begun. Feng Ti Li showed no signs of leaving, but he said such a sentence. The meaning is equally obvious.
Feng Tili began to cough incessantly, the coughing sound became more and more intense, and a sickly flush appeared on his pale face, which did not subside. Immediately afterwards, the strongest general of the Chu State, who had been in the Nine Leaves Realm thirty years ago, coughed up blood. He tried his best to restrain himself, but he couldn't restrain it at all. His eyes were full of pain and unwillingness.
"You...... What happened to you? Feng Zhan asked in alarm.
After some time, Feng Tili finally stopped coughing, he looked at Feng Zhan, and said apologetically: "Although I haven't died, it's better to live than die all these years." If I hadn't met your mother, I might have died, and only after experiencing the darkness of this world would I understand that the so-called hero may be just a dream bubble, maybe just a moment. But it takes a long life. The royal brother once said that you don't have to be a hero, but you must be a hero. But in this world, even heroes are full of tragedy, and people's lives only focus on the most brilliant moment of heroes, but it is difficult to imagine the experience before this. I even ...... Don't want you to be that hero. ”
Feng Tili's words were filled with infinite regret, and he said: "The wind is howling for 90,000 miles, and the heavens and the earth are just spreading their wings, which is the free and wild that the descendants of the blood of the wind god should have. But I didn't choose to grow up with you after all, but I didn't expect that your bloodline still awakened, and the people of my Tiankeng City said that you have awakened the Fengshen bloodline since you were born, which is also an extremely rare thing in my Feng family. Perhaps all this is a reflection that you will be the future hero of the Chu State, saving the people of Tiankeng City, carrying the lives of countless people and becoming a thief, which is also very legendary in the eyes of the people of the Chu State. Now that you've done everything, and you've done everything your mother wants you to do, I really shouldn't have come to you. The rest should have been done by me and the Xingchen Sect......"
Feng Tili fell into silence again, and this silence made Feng Zhan feel frightened, full of dead silence.
"But I'm dying."
Feng Zhan took a long breath, and the expression on his face looked a little confused. Originally, today should be the same as usual, he returned to the hut early, brought the prey, and waited for Tang Suoye to make it delicious, he could take Yimi to Lianqing City for a walk, as long as he kept a low profile, no one would recognize him. The disappearance of the Great Thief Wind Exhibition also made his name slowly fall silent in the rivers and lakes. No matter how great a person is, as long as he has been calm for a long time, he will eventually be unknown again in the rivers and lakes. This is the rivers and lakes, because the rivers and lakes are never short of new legends.
The big thief is gone, and another thief is born, the first in the world is dead, and the second in the world will go up. This is the normal state of the rivers and lakes, Feng Zhan is waiting for the day when the name of the world's number one thief completely disappears from the rivers and lakes, because although it sounds like a running hall is unknown, what the shopkeeper does is to make Feng Zhan feel from the bottom of his heart that this is the real justice and redemption.
He thought that this was his father's way in the past, but now, his father suddenly appeared in front of him, and he realized that everything before was his imagination.
The worst thing is that he didn't have time to vent this grievance and anger, and he suddenly learned that his father's time was running out. At this moment, Feng Zhan even knew what kind of posture to use to face the person in front of him. Should you hate him, or should you pity him? And when people are about to die, should they let go of the past?
But no matter how sincere Feng Tili's attitude was in his words, Feng Zhan could never forget that night in Tiankeng City many years ago, he had to make a choice between Yimi and his mother, and finally chose to listen to his mother's words to save Yimi. No one can understand the helplessness of the wind exhibition at that time. That's why Yimi is so important to the Wind Show.
So when he guessed Feng Ti Li's identity, and at the moment when Feng Ti Li said his identity, Feng Zhan felt the anger of Li's departure. But now, the man told him that he was dying. This sentence overwhelmed Feng Zhan.
"What do you want me to do?" Feng Zhan said.
Feng Tili said: "The empire is weak now, although it is still a behemoth, but the current empire's combat power is less than sixty percent of what it used to be. And the Chu army has gathered tens of thousands of people, and they all have the identity of the people to cover, we can approach the imperial capital. Maybe I won't die at that time, but I'll have to think about the worst after all. I want you to be my successor and the future Emperor of Chu. ”
Be the future Emperor of Chu. The tone is flat, but the words are like thunder. Feng Zhan didn't expect that his conversation with Xiang Wu in the broken temple in the Northern Regions would turn out to be a prophecy. It turns out that one day, he will choose between two identities, but he already has the answer.
"Uncle Ben is not interested in this. There is nothing wrong with the rule of the empire nowadays. I can't be the emperor of Chu, I won't stop the people of Chu from overthrowing the Qin state, and I won't help the people of Chu to overthrow the Qin state. Uncle Ben is just a Jianghu person, and now I am a runner. My partner is waiting for me. Even though he was still very resolute, Feng Zhan's tone was a lot calmer.
Feng Tili said: "I can't tell you the secrets of the Qin State and the Chu State now, as a person who is still alive today and knows the secret of the past, I know what kind of enemy I have to face, Feng Zhan, you are the hope of the Chu State, if you choose to stand by and watch, there will be countless Tiankeng Cities in the future, and similar tragedies will continue to happen." ”
"Long-winded, I said, I don't care about these things! The money that Uncle Ben owes to Chu Guo to this bloodline has been paid off! Feng Zhan said.
"I always wanted you to show up! I hope that the person who rescued everyone in Tiankeng City is not me but you, I hope that you can come with red light back then, and take my mother and me away from Tiankeng City. I won't be upset if I happen to learn that you're still alive, and I'll definitely find a way to find you! But it shouldn't be the way we meet today! ”
Feng Zhan raised his head, his eyes were covered with a layer of mist, his eyes were red, and he said in a trembling voice: "This girl you robbed was replaced by my mother's brave life back then." I'm going to protect her for the rest of my life! What bullshit empire, what Chu country, it has nothing to do with me! ”
Feng Tili sighed, if he hadn't taken over the Xingchen Sect after Tiankeng City, how could he have arranged the residence of more than 3,000 people in such a short period of time with the Xingchen Sect alone. Naturally, Feng Tili also learned about Feng Zhan and Yimi from the mouths of the people of Tiankeng City. He knew that at this moment, even if he explained to Feng Zhan what had happened back then, it would be useless. He needs a result now, a result that he is happy with.
He said slowly: "Come with me, after learning about Emperor Qin's conspiracy back then, you will definitely change your mind." ”
Feng Zhan's heart was very irritable, and his father's request was short, and he should not refuse. He also believed that there must be something big about the treasurer's letter. Of course, he definitely wanted to help the shopkeeper, but now he also felt that it might be good to go and find out what the so-called Qin Emperor's conspiracy was. It's just that...... The feeling was intense, as if once you had made your choice, you could never go back.
In the end, Feng Zhan vetoed again: "My partners are waiting for me, whether the sky is falling, whether it is a change of dynasty, I am a runner, I have to do my own thing first." ”
Feng Tili sighed again: "You have a good group of partners, but if you inherit the power of the royal family of the Chu State, you can do even more." And this time, you have to come with me. ”
Feng is tired of drinking to drown his sorrows, drunk and dreaming of death all day long, and now his body has long been overwhelmed, he is suffering from incurable serious illness, even the world's first death doctor Zhong Wanxin can't cure him. As for how long he can live, it depends on his personal will and how he cultivates. But...... It won't be more than a year.
Feng Tili must continue his mission through the wind exhibition in this year or even in a short period of time. He has been fighting for this for decades, and for this matter, he has abandoned his wife. If at this time, things fall short, he has no face to meet his imperial brother.
And the thing that Feng Ti Centrifugal cares about the most, that is, the person who overthrows the rule of the Qin State must be the Feng family. It's like an obsession.
"If I insist on not going with you, how can you stop me? If you can only blackmail me by relying on Yimi, then what kind of bullshit Chu Emperor, even if I accept it for a while, I will never lead them to overthrow the empire! Feng Zhan insisted.
Feng Tili said, "I didn't bring this little girl to blackmail you. I know everything about you and her. In this way, she is the future queen of Chu. Naturally, I wouldn't hurt her. If you refuse to leave your partner, how about we have a fair fight? ”
Feng Zhan said: "Although you look sick now, but many years ago you were the first general of the Chu State, what am I competing with you, I want to take her away, you better not stop me." ”
Feng Tili said: "No realm, no martial arts, I will compete with you for speed." You are the number one thief in the world, and the ultimate speed is even above Akasi, and you awakened your bloodline talent early, so let's compare the speed. ”
Feng Zhan frowned, which he hadn't expected.
"How do you compare?"
Feng Tili said: "I am your Laozi, I should let you, the test method is very simple, we run at the same time, within a stick of incense, as long as you can touch me, I will lose." If I lose, from now on the affairs of Qin Chu have nothing to do with you, you will always be my proudest son, even if you don't want to recognize me or contact me, I will choose a successor from the existing eight generals of Eastern Chu, although they don't have the blood of Fengshen. But what will happen to the Chu State after that, I will definitely not be obsessed with it anymore. ”
Feng Zhan was silent, even if Akasi, as the peak realm of the Nine Leaves, only broke out at the limit speed in the time of a stick of incense, Feng Zhan absolutely believed that he could win, but it would be difficult to say if it took a little longer.
Feng Tili continued: "And I said that I would let you, and I would take this little girl with me. ”
Hearing this, Feng Zhan agreed to Feng Tili's request without even thinking about it, and said, "If you can take someone with you and not be chased by Uncle Ben, Uncle Ben will dispose of it with you." ”
Feng Tili said: "Child, maybe you are too confident, don't you listen to what happens if you lose?" ”
Feng Zhan was a little panicked after feeling the calmness of Feng Tired, after all, the opponent was a person who also had the blood of the Wind God. Feng Tili looked into Feng Zhan's eyes and said very seriously: "If you lose, you must come with me and leave a letter to tell Yimi and your partners that you will be away for a while, so that they don't look for you." As for when you leave, it depends on when the Chu State overthrows the empire, and before the Chu State overthrows the empire, you can't see your partner, or even this girl. Because you will face the search of the entire empire, and you will also follow my name and become the most dangerous person in this empire, the most wanted criminal. ”
Feng Tili said every word very slowly, in fact, these words were extremely painful for him to say, he had already anticipated the future situation of his child, he didn't want his child to take on the heavy responsibility of reviving the Chu State, as he said before, if it weren't for this extraordinary period, he would not appear in front of Feng Zhan for the rest of his life. ...... this world Even heroes have to survive in the dark.
If the only thing to be happy about, it is that he has borne the darkness for his children. The current power of Chu is definitely enough to start a war. If used correctly, it will cause an unprecedented chaos in Kyoto, and then win the chaos and change the dynasty.
All of this should have been done by Feng Ti to leave him, but he had no time, so he could only choose to hand it all over to his child Feng Zhan.
After listening to Feng Tili's words, Feng Zhan raised his head and said, "Why does it have to be now, I want to help my friend." ”
"I don't know when I'm going to die, and there's a lot to teach you. ”
There was silence for a while, and finally Feng Zhan raised his head and said, "Don't say that my young bully the old one, I can avoid Uncle Ben." ”
Feng Tili said: "So, but agreed?" ”
Feng Zhan doesn't believe that there is anyone in this world who can be faster than him, and the fastest legend in the world is him and Akasi. So no matter what, Feng Zhan has absolute confidence, even if it is also the blood of the Wind God, with Yimi and his own speed, he will definitely reduce his speed significantly.
Feng Zhan nodded and said, "Old man, I have to tell you, I am very fierce when I fight hard. ”
Feng Tili coughed again, but this time it was shorter, and he smiled: "Heaven and earth just spread their wings, let me see how strong your bloodline talent is." ”
Feng Tili slowly walked towards Yimi, picked up Yimi softly and said:
"Let's start, don't worry, no matter how fast I am, I won't hurt her."
(emmmmm, I've been lazy for a few days, and it should explode tomorrow, of course I plan it this way, if there is nothing else tomorrow, such as a narcolepsy attack or something.) It should be in the next chapter, at most, two chapters, to directly lay the groundwork before Armageddon. There must be no way to rush to the support inn, because the biggest main quest of this story has already been collected by Running Hall 2333)
