Volume 1 Kyushu Turmoil Mountains and Rivers Chapter 173 Everyone has a cage in their hearts
The person recommended by Shi Wuzheng was a very special person, and after looking for a long time, Chu Xiang saw the person he was looking for, a man who had just come back from hunting and was wearing windproof goggles, although he was wearing a hat and covering his face, Chu Xiang still saw the difference in him at a glance.
Finding Chu Xiang walking towards him, the man wearing windproof goggles did not panic, and had no intention of escaping, and got into the small and simple house.
Entering the small house, the temperature inside was a little unexpected, the humble dwelling made of tents and leaves, planks, waste paper, etc., was warm, and the brazier in the middle was even warmer when it burned.
"You're coming for me?" The man said, even in the residence, he still did not take off the windshield.
"Yes." Chu Xiang nodded, picked up the firewood in the brazier, and the flame burned even more vigorously.
"Shi Wuzheng called you?"
"Yes." Obviously, Shi Wuzheng told him about this, and Chu Xiang returned to his original appearance.
"What if I refuse?" There was no surprise to Chu Xiang's appearance, the man took off his windshield goggles, took off his hood, and his eyes were not black and white, but had blue pupils, long golden hair, and a beard all over his face.
"I'm curious, why are you here?" Chu Xiang was not surprised at all by the appearance of the person in front of him, because Shi Wuzheng had already told him that he had directly skipped the difficult questions thrown by the other party and did not give him a chance to refuse.
"The world is complicated." The blonde man said.
Chu Xiang nodded, he understood that the other party didn't want to discuss this issue, and said, "I need someone to help me make the world a little simpler." ”
"I'm not that kind of person."
"You're going to be like that."
"Your self-confidence may be a little overdone."
"Do you know who I am?" Chu Xiangdao.
"I'm not interested in anyone's identity."
Chu Xiang nodded, this is self-confidence, a more confident attitude than Chu Xiang, no matter who it is, there is no difference in front of him.
"My name is Chu Xiang, and I am known as the Demon Lord." Chu Xiangdao.
"You want to get rid of the Demon Lord?" The blond man looked up at Chu Xiang's eyes, obviously knowing that the Demon Lord Chu Xiang was a person, and he pointed out what Chu Xiang was thinking in one sentence, and he was really not an ordinary person.
"Isn't that obvious?" Chu Xiang did not answer the rhetorical question.
"I'm not a casual person."
Chu Xiang understood what he meant, the meaning of the good minister choosing the master and doing things, and said: "The power of the martial arts hall only accounts for one-third, and I need someone to help me coordinate the other two-thirds of the strength, so that I have the strength to be alone." ”
"It's not enough."
"That's why I need you."
"I'm a person who is very afraid of death."
Fear of death means that it is very dangerous, and he does not want to do dangerous work.
"What I want is to be afraid of death, and the more afraid of death, the better."
"I don't think I have a choice."
"Yes." Chu Xiang nodded, his only choice was to surrender, because Chu Xiang told him that he still had two-thirds of his strength, and this kind of secret was a fatal secret.
"Didn't Shi Wuzheng tell you what kind of person I am?"
"Nope."
"You're probably too confident."
"I think that's a plus."
"I betrayed my motherland, betrayed my mentor, my wife died because of me, my parents refused to recognize me as a son, I couldn't even return to my motherland." After a pause, the blond-haired man continued, "Now, do you still think I'm the right person? ”
"None of that has anything to do with me." Chu Xiangdao.
"Then you have nothing to do with me."
Chu Xiang understood what he meant, was silent for a while, and said, "This will be a new beginning, whether it is in the past or in the future, there will be opportunities for change." ”
"I don't want to change."
"I know a monk who drew a line and separated black and white, but he used it for twenty years, but he couldn't go to the white side, he could only go to black on this line."
"He trapped himself."
"Yes, he trapped himself, and when he drew this line, he knew that if he took one step forward, there would be no darkness again, but he didn't know that when he drew this line, it was also when he trapped himself. The line has always been there, and if you don't draw it, you will never become a cage, and once you draw it, it's a prison of heart. ”
The blond-haired man was silent, and after a while, asked, "Who is this monk?" ”
"There is no monk in the smiling Buddha." Chu Xiangdao.
"What is the Shroud?" The blond man asked suddenly.
"I don't really understand it, but so far, I've only understood one thing: embracing everything in a virtual body." Chu Xiang Dao, stretched out his palm, and the air flow in the palm swirled rapidly, and the cold qi condensed, forming a standard cylindrical cyclone in the palm of the palm.
"How many Voids could there be in this land?" Not the slightest surprise at the vision in Chu Xiang's palm, the blond-haired man continued to ask.
After being silent for a while, Chu Xiang said, "It may be far more than we imagined." ”
The blonde man frowned slightly, his expression changed for the first time, Chu Xiang held the long sword, closed his eyes and concentrated for a moment, his index finger pointed at the center of his eyebrows, and suddenly the surrounding atmosphere changed greatly, and a heavy pressure was born out of thin air, and even the beating flames were suppressed.
After a moment, Chu Xiang withdrew his finger, and after a long time, the blond-haired man said, "This kind of power has indeed gone beyond the realm of the mortal world. ”
Chu Xiang nodded, his actions just now were very simple, that is, to visualize the terrifying atmosphere of the twelve golden people he sensed in Mingsha Mountain, and reflect it in the mind of the blonde man with blue eyes, the weather that came out of Chu Xiang was far less than the weather sensed by Chu Xiang, but for the blonde man, it was terrifying enough, and he understood that the weather that could make Chu Xiang feel this way was absolutely powerful to destroy the world and transcend the power of the mortal world.
"It's a long road." Chu Xiangdao.
"Yes, it's long, but I'd like to see it at the end." A glint appeared in the eyes of the blonde man.
Chu Xiang's success aroused the interest of the blonde man, for many people, there was no goal because he had not seen what shocked them, once they understood that there was something far beyond their cognition in this world, this shock would change his mind and break through the shackles in his heart.
Skinning the beast from the hunt, removing the internal organs, cutting it into pieces and roasting it on the fire, the blonde man's movements were slow, and the focus of his eyes was not at all on what he was holding.
"I have been called a genius since I was 11 years old, I graduated with a doctorate at the age of 21, I was expelled from my homeland at the age of 23, I wandered in China for 13 years, I went to Tibet 13 times by bicycle, once I pulled a small boat to Namco, played in it for half a day, and then I was arrested by the National Security Bureau and locked up for 34 days, and then they actually released me and did not deport me, and I have never left China since." The blond man said slowly.
Chu Xiang didn't interrupt him, understanding that he just wanted to speak, release the pressure in his heart, let himself draw a line with the past, and at the same time let Chu Xiang understand him so that he could start his future work.
"Do you know how I met Shi Wuzheng?" The blonde man said, with a mysterious and happy smile on his face.
Chu Xiang looked at him and waited for him to say.
"He is my junior brother, and one day I saw him, he was with a woman, and he suddenly came to me and said, 'Senior brother, I brought your wife to you.'"
"And then she became your wife?" Chu Xiang said with a smile.
"Yes." The blond man nodded.
"It's good to have such a junior brother." Chu Xiang said with a smile.
"That was the first time I saw him, and the last, and no one knew we knew each other but her."
The two had only met once, which made Chu Xiang a little surprised, sure enough, outstanding people had all kinds of weirdness.
The blond man picked up a book next to him: "I have been in China for thirteen years, and I have read this Tao Te Ching at least three hundred times, but I have not understood it until the time of the drastic change, I did not understand the first sentence, I studied it for another three years, and finally barely understood this book, and today, I really understand the power it contains." ”
Chu Xiang had only read it once, and had forgotten more than ninety percent of the content, and he didn't know what the power he said was.
"I've heard that people who can read this book are not ordinary people." Chu Xiangdao.
"Probably no one understands yet." The blonde man said.
"Oh?"
