Chapter 214: Parting Ways
It's one thing for me to beg the nine-tailed fox, it's another thing to take him to see my father and second uncle. At that moment, I cautiously asked, "Senior, if you see people from the Daomen, will you kill them?" ”
"Not at the moment!" The nine-tailed fox returned to an indifferent appearance, and after living for a thousand years, even if there were waves in his heart, it was just a small episode for him, but his words were more and more.
After all, people who are silent also need to talk to people, let alone an old monster who has been imprisoned for thousands of years.
I was relieved to get his reply that he wouldn't for the time being, and as for the future, I can't think that far now.
The only thing I want to do at the moment is to become stronger, only if I become stronger, can I do what I said earlier, otherwise Allure will not be able to completely get out of this matter.
I kowtowed a few more times and thanked my seniors, and then stood up and patted the dirt on my body and said: "Seniors, I'll take you over to find my father and them now, but I hope you don't reveal what happened just now, and when I convince my father and second uncle, where I need the help of my seniors at that time, I hope you can help." ”
"As long as it is helpful to the two little girls, I will not stand idly by, as for your own business, I said, I will not interfere, you do it yourself!"
After the nine-tailed fox finished speaking, he stood up, and his white tail stretched out from behind him, wrapping around his neck and body, restoring his previous graceful appearance.
I was very curious, I wanted to see where his tail grew from, how it sticked out, and his robe was not lifted up, could it be that there was a hole in his clothes at the buttocks?
I was curious, but I didn't dare to go around and look, if he knew, he might out 108,000 miles without taking a breath.
Seeing that the nine-tailed fox was leaving, I hurriedly said, "Senior, wait for me for a while, I haven't told my friends about this yet!" ”
"No need!" The nine-tailed fox said coldly.
I still insisted: "They are my friends, not my subordinates, and if they help me, they have the right to know!" ”
When the nine-tailed fox heard this, he didn't say much.
I didn't hide anything from my grandfather's time, all the way to their plans and my thoughts.
After listening, Chen Ou and Xia did not express their position immediately, but fell into silence for a long time.
For them, choosing means being under pressure from the outside world just like me. We are not the strongest in the world, but our choices determine the future of the world, and our success or failure is related to the life and death of countless people.
Perhaps, we will be regarded as heroes and celebrated. Perhaps, we will be sinners, spurned for thousands of years.
After all, time forgets many things, but it does not forget some people.
The actions of the ancestors of the Shangguan family, even now, are still praised by Xia Hua's people.
After a long time, Chen Oucai said: "Lin Chu, in fact, Shangguan is not bad, in the future, choosing a mountain, male ploughing and female weaving, is the best result." ”
As soon as I heard what he said, I knew what he had chosen. I smiled and said, "No matter what the choice, we are not right or wrong, in the future, we will still be friends!" ”
Chen Ou put down his hippie smile, his mood was low, and he didn't say anything to me.
Whether it is Chen Ou or Xia or Zhang Mengmeng, we are all people with independent personalities, and we come together because we have a common goal, and we are not attached to whom.
Helping each other in times of crisis is our friendship. There is no contradiction with the path we have chosen.
People are like that, different people, different personalities, different worldviews. Of course, the kind of person who loses himself and acts as a horse boy is an exception.
Chen Ou was silent and said: "Zhang Mengmeng, I'll take it, I'll find a way to wake him up, and I'll tell him when the time comes." ”
I nodded.
Summer had already thought about it at this time, looked at me and said, "It's not important whether it's right or wrong, but my life was given to me by countless ancestors of the Daomen, and I can't do anything to betray my ancestors and forget my ancestors." ”
Chen Ou chose to leave, and I was already a little uncomfortable in my heart, so when Xia said such things, my heart hurt for a while.
In the current Daomen, it is the grandfather who agrees with them, and the grandfather represents the ideas of the Daomen generations.
I feel a little sad, I really want to say that thousands of years have passed, who can say what the ancestors of the Daomen think, perhaps, their thoughts are the same as my thoughts at this moment.
In the end, I still didn't say anything, nodded with a smile, patted them on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, we have different paths, but we are all friends." ”
Chen Ou and Xia also said at the same time: "Don't worry, we won't do anything to hurt my sister-in-law!" ”
A moment ago, I was still worried about this, after all, apart from me, the two of them are the closest people to Allure, and they are also the most harmful.
When I got back, I turned on the Boundary Breaker, and both dragon eggs were fine. I originally wanted the nine-tailed fox to be put into the carry-on space, but he said that Allure and the little red dragon are degenerating, and they need to absorb the aura of the outside world, and they can't be placed in the carry-on space.
I don't know if it's because I'm not an adult, at that moment, my eyes became weird, but when I turned around, I found that Chen Ou and Xia's eyes were the same as me, weird......
It seems that they all have the same evil idea, this thing, will not be the East Plateau in the ......
Of course, we all dare to think, not speak.
The matter of Allure is settled for the time being, and I also put down a big stone in my heart, as for when she will complete the transformation, the slower the better, otherwise as soon as she wakes up, the nine-tailed fox may not be able to restrain his movements.
On the way, Xia and Chen Ou asked me to send them to Qimen Dunjia, during this time, they didn't want to go with my father and them, hoping to solve Zhang Mengmeng's matter.
Passing through the Qimen Dunjia station, we will say goodbye. Before leaving, there were no superfluous words, just exchanging cherishes.
For the first time in fifteen years, I felt the weight of parting, and I watched their figures be submerged in the vast mountains before I turned around and drove the Boundary Breaker away.
I originally wanted to tell them that I was going to go to Zhang Mengmeng's business, but in the end I didn't say it. Friends, know each other, what can't be done, they all know, no need to explain.
On the way back, I didn't say a word, and the nine-tailed fox didn't speak, and the next day I arrived at Hook Soul Mountain, and the Boundary Breaker appeared, and Duan Bai directly appeared on the top of Hook Soul Mountain, looking at each other from afar.
It seemed to have a sense, and before I could open the hatch, the figure of the nine-tailed fox disappeared into the boundary-breaking shuttle. I secretly said that it is not good, when two strong men meet, I am afraid that they will fight.
I hurriedly put away the boundary-breaking shuttle, and when I went out, I saw that the nine-tailed fox was also flying in the air, looking at Duan Bai from afar, the white fox tail was beautiful in the wind, and the two swords under my waist exuded a powerful murderous aura.
I had no choice but to stand on the boundary-breaking shuttle, fly up and say to the nine-tailed fox: "Senior, he is not an enemy, he may become our partner in the future!" ”
"A man who is hiding in a coffin and is dying, and you still want to count on him?" The nine-tailed fox spoke indifferently, his eyes were very sharp, but his tone was very contemptuous.
It can be seen that he is very disdainful of Duan Bai's self-sealing and living until now without asking about the world, but he is jealous of Duan Bai's strength.
I understood Duan Bai's past, and hurriedly explained to Duan Bai: "Senior, you misunderstood, Duan Bai's predecessor has been suppressing the corpse here, and a few days ago we killed an immortal, all thanks to Duan Bai's senior. ”
"You don't have to explain, he's my friend!" The nine-tailed fox said coldly. When I heard this, I hurriedly said: "That's right, old friends reunite, you can drink and talk happily......"
"Once!" The nine-tailed fox added lukewarmly, and the last eight sentences were stuck in my throat, and I didn't know what to say.
But since they are friends, even if they are former friends, it is unlikely that they will do it.
A few miles away, Duan Bai still heard the words of the nine-tailed fox, I don't know what his expression was, but he said in a somewhat low tone: You came out.
I looked at the fluttering figure of Duan Bai and white in the distance, and I was looking at the nine-tailed fox, and I had already guessed what happened to them in my heart. But I didn't say anything, and I didn't try to persuade me.
The two of them looked at each other for more than ten minutes several kilometers apart, and neither of them moved, and neither of them said a word.
This is the gaze of the first time in 3,500 years, and no one knows how much friendship is left in it. Perhaps, there is only hatred left between them, but because of their acquaintance 3,500 years ago, it is not yet to the point of a big fight.
But the two must not meet, otherwise there will be a big problem.
It was already dusk when we arrived, the sun was fading away from the two of them, and the sky was getting dark. Only then did the nine-tailed fox say: "You go up, I'll wait for you here for three days!" ”
Three days is a bit short, after all, my father is not a second uncle, and he can't be persuaded in three days.
But I didn't have room for bargaining, so I flew towards Soul Hook Mountain with the Boundary Breaker Shuttle, and when I saw Duan Bai, I hurriedly told the Nine-Tailed Fox about following the Boundary Breaker, and then said all the things that the Nine-Tailed Fox had said to me.
My father listened to them beside them, all expressionless, and I said for a while, my father said that for the time being, he and we have common interests and will not make a move, but as long as the matter of Tianmen is resolved, I am afraid that it will be another bloody storm.
From beginning to end, Duan Bai just listened, did not express any opinions, and after I finished speaking, he did not listen to my father and them, and walked towards the side of the mountain alone.
Looking at his back, I wondered, is he guilty?
But it's impossible to think about it, the people who can reach the top are very determined, and the path they choose is the right way.
I can't guess the thoughts of the strong, but I can feel it faintly.
Because in the future, Chen Ouxia and I may come to this point, and at that time, whether it is right or wrong, it will be a kind of torture.
My dad and they discussed for a moment, and finally they all fell silent. They were silent.
Before I left, my father and they had already arranged for people to go out to win over people, and I happened to pull my second uncle and ask about the situation.
When the second uncle mentioned this, he sighed helplessly and said: "Today's Daomen has long lost its backbone, especially those elders from various sects, who have lived too many years, from the beginning of the calm face, to the current fear of death. If the world falls, those people must be pawns of the upper realm! ”
"How many people have come to the sect?" I also sighed in my heart, in such a situation, if the old guy Shangguan told their original plan, I am afraid that these people around me, including my father, will raise their hands in approval.
"Not much!" The second uncle was a little frustrated.
Because right now, we simply don't have the strength to fight.
I believe that the Shangguan family will do this soon, so I have to settle the matter as soon as possible and leave, otherwise I will be subject to others, which will be equivalent to the city being controlled by others.
The second uncle chatted with me, I deliberately took him farther and farther, passing by the cave where the golden dragon was hidden, I pointed and said: "Actually, we don't have to worry, now we have Duan Bai's seniors, as well as the golden dragon, plus Aunt Hei and the nine-tailed fox, if we can gather a large number of people to deal with Lei Gongshan and the Ying family, we have a very good chance of winning." ”
The second uncle shook his head and said: "This time, the people we sent out to spread the news came back with bad news, and those sects that did not agree to participate in the cooperation seem to be threatened by some kind of force!" And my friends below also noticed that there was an abnormality below, and it seems that there is a strong person who wants to interfere! ”
The nine-tailed fox gave me three days to convince my father that it was definitely not enough, and the only way was to lie to my father, but if you want to deceive my father, you must have the help of my second uncle. So I chatted with my second uncle as soon as I came.
Originally, I didn't want to tell the matter of the Three Realms, but seeing that the second uncle had already gained some insight into some clues and knew that he couldn't hide it, he pointed to the cave and said, "Second uncle, I want to go down and see the golden dragon." ”
The second uncle didn't suspect me, rolled up a gust of wind, and took me down.
We are talking outside, Duan Bai and my father may overhear, only here is the safest.
After landing on the ground, the second uncle saw that I was stunned and didn't move, so he pushed me and said, "Let's go, don't you kid want to see the golden dragon?" ”
I didn't say a word, I knelt in front of the second uncle with a puff, and cried: "Second uncle, you have to help me!" ”
The second uncle was stunned for a moment, stretched out his hand to help me up, and said angrily: "Is it the nine-tailed fox coercing you?" ”
I wiped my tears and didn't speak. The second uncle looked at it, gritted his teeth and said: "The deception is too much, I'll go to him, even if I fight for this life, I have to ask for an explanation!" "Seeing that the second uncle was about to go out with a hideous face, I was secretly happy in my heart, the second uncle was still the second uncle, following my father, and he didn't let him change.
Only such a second uncle can help me.
I hurriedly caught up with the second uncle, stopped him, and hurriedly squeezed out a few tears and said, "Second uncle, it's not the nine-tailed fox, it's the Daomen!" ”
"Daomen?" The second uncle was stunned, obviously not knowing what I was talking about.
I followed his speculation just now and told my grandfather all about their plan. After hearing this, the second uncle said resentfully: "Your father and your grandfather are both like bears, they always just want to compromise, and they never think about fighting, isn't it just a small underworld, and the upper realm scares them like this!" ”
I was just about to say that I and the nine-tailed fox planned to fight with Lei Gongshan and the Ying family, when the second uncle held my shoulder and said: "A manly man, you must have an unyielding spirit, even if you die, you must fight for yourself once!" ”
Fighting for yourself?
The second uncle's words pierced my heart, the people around us, from the overall situation, everyone is fighting for themselves, but really speaking, they are not fighting for themselves.
I was encouraged by the second uncle, and said something hesitant: "I won't sacrifice Allure, I will fight with them to the end!" ”
"Well done!" The second uncle was also a little excited, and patted me on the shoulder vigorously. I immediately said weakly: "But, second uncle, it's not a lip service to them, you need strength." ”
After the excitement, returning to reality, the second uncle was also poured a basin of cold water.
It's not surprising that many things are like this, and when you think about it, you are very excited, and you are impassioned when you say it, but if you really calm down and think about it, you will find that things are much more complicated.
This is the watershed, so to speak. For a small number of people, he will find a way to solve the problems one by one, and finally succeed. Most people, after the passion, will not be able to do it and become a loser.
I came prepared, just to fool the second uncle, and deliberately didn't say it all at once. When the second uncle was embarrassed, I was also embarrassed, but soon I had an idea and said: "Grandpa's coffin, I didn't leave a forbidden spell for me, or you can help me open it, and I can gain power when I get the forbidden spell." ”
I had told my second uncle before, but he didn't bring it up just now, so I deliberately paused. Only now did he deliberately say it, but the second uncle said: "It's not easy to open your grandfather's coffin, and your father won't agree." ”
I immediately hugged the second uncle's arm and said coquettishly: "Second uncle, I know that you love me the most, and now my father doesn't know these things arranged by my grandfather, you help me, deceive him, and help me get the forbidden curse." ”
The second uncle didn't answer immediately, but he didn't refuse either, and after a while, he said: "I'll try, but I'm afraid that the people from the Shangguan family will come over soon, and when your father knows, not only will he not help you open the coffin, but I'm afraid he will also imprison you." ”
I said, "So second uncle, you have to hurry up, it's best to do it within three days." ”
The second uncle never dragged the mud and water, and decided to help me very simply, he nodded and said, "I'll do my best." The second uncle said that he was going to take me out, but at the moment when he was about to take the sky, he stopped again and said: "Don't forget, there are people in the Shangguan family here now, Shangguan Qingqian doesn't know, but Shangguan Pengfei is difficult to say, don't just keep an eye on the other people in the Shangguan family, go and stabilize Shangguan Pengfei!" ”
The second uncle is careful, and I can't even remember if he doesn't say it. I didn't go to see the golden dragon, and when I got out of the cave, I went directly to Shangguan Pengfei and Shangguan Qingqian.
Less than a month after I left, they built a wooden house out of wood on the top of the mountain, and Shangguan Pengfei and Shangguan Qingqian were alone in a wooden house.
With my understanding, knowing that I was coming back, Shangguan Qingqian would definitely come out to greet him as soon as possible, but if he didn't come out now, he could only be watched by Shangguan Pengfei. I don't think it's easy for me to get the news, and the only way is to stay with them, as long as he doesn't leave my sight, it's not a big problem.
