Chapter 218: The Direction of Light (2)
Ziling can only accept the fate that has been arranged, even if this is a reality that she doesn't want to face, but since Shangguan Gongzi said that he would come back, he will definitely come back.
Shangguan Weiming crossed through thousands of hardships and difficulties, and finally passed the border of the demon clan and came to the human world, but he knew very well in his heart that leaving the demon clan this time was not to avoid the responsibility to be borne, but to be more aware of the mission he was going to face next.
For a long time, I've been thinking about it, is it possible that the fate of the demon clan has always existed, and life is stuck here and doesn't take a step forward? I suddenly remembered that my father had mentioned that more than ten years ago, the Taoist had a very profound martial arts, if he could find the traces of the person, he might be able to save the fate of the demon clan.
No matter what, after returning to the human world, you have to try to find that person, if you can't find it in this life, then you won't see the princess of the demon clan again, and you won't marry in this life.
After returning to Fuyun, there was a lot of discussion in the whole city, and the surrounding shops seemed to have lost the prosperous atmosphere of the past, and I couldn't help but ask in my heart What happened to this Fuyun City? Could it be that the demons invaded during this period?
Walking forward, I found that the owners of several shops were sighing non-stop, and there was no way to concentrate on sorting out the goods in their hands.
Shangguan Weiming finally stepped forward and asked, "Uncle, what happened here, why is it not the same as before?" ”。
The old man reluctantly put down the things in his hand and shook his head, "You're from out of town, right?" No wonder I don't know about this stormy city, alas."
Shangguan Weiming did not refute it, and generally he would not easily expose the fact that he was from the Shangguan family outside, which is also what his father once said.
"Before this, our city was the most prosperous place in the entire human world, and some time ago, something happened in the Fuyun Palace, which made the city full of people panic."
"What is the old man talking about?".
"It is the high Murong Holy Lord who holds the treasure of the ancient millennium in her hand, I thought she would use this treasure to help our human world become more prosperous, but the result is very opposite, she takes the power for herself, and no one can stand up to resist her, we ...... I'm afraid I'll never go back to the life I used to have" was mixed with helplessness in his tone, and even life has become so hard.
What the? Did Holy Lord Murong really do this?
"Uncle, what you said is true? Holy Lord Murong had never done such a thing! Shangguan Weiming was a little puzzled, when the Holy Lord Murong arranged for himself to find the Golden Priest, he didn't say so, this ancient thousand-year-old treasure Golden Wood Stone was obviously found to save the common people in the world, but now the Holy Lord Murong has brought such a result, and people who have personally experienced the Golden Wood and Stone like this are unacceptable.
"I don't believe you to ask others, we have never experienced such a ridiculous thing, it's funny to say, we actually pinned our hopes on the hands of a person who only wants power, it's ridiculous......" The old man went to pick up the thing he had just put down and put it in another place, so that the cycle went on, and there was no charm in his eyes, and more helplessness......
Shangguan Weiming didn't choose to continue, whether a city is good or not is determined by the reputation of the people, if it weren't for something happening in the Fuyun Palace, the people wouldn't have said this, it seems that they have to go back and ask their father what happened.
Returning to the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion of Shangguan, it seemed that this place had not changed much from before, and walked in.
But I found that my father was not in the main hall this time, which was a little different from before.
"Where did the prime minister go?" Shangguan Weiming went to ask the subordinates on the side.
"The prime minister went out a few hours ago, and he hasn't come back yet," replied the servant.
"Did the prime minister say where he went?"
"The prime minister's affairs are too small to ask."
Shangguan Weiming naturally don't embarrass him, since his father is not at home, let's go to Shangguan Yudie's place to have a look, even if my sister has never gone out to play in the house all the year round, but the fact that the rumors and rumors in the capital are spreading should be able to know.
He walked over and knocked softly on the door, heard someone answer inside, and walked in.
Shangguan Yudie was a little unbelievable, didn't my brother go to the demon clan with the princess of the demon clan before this? How do you get it back? couldn't help but be taken aback, and immediately stood up from the side of the chair, "Brother, why did you come back?" ”。
"Because of the irresistible fate, I can't let her take this risk for me, so I can only come back first, if I can find a solution to the fate of the demon clan, it will be even better," Shangguan Weiming said.
Shangguan Yudie nodded, he had heard of fate mentioned before, and now that his brother mentioned it again, it must be true.
"That brother is back now, will he go to the princess of the demon clan in the future?" Shangguan Yudie was able to understand that the princess of the demon clan was a very cute and lively person, and her brother's personality completely complemented each other, and if the two of them were together, they would be a pair of fairy couples! It's just that this hateful demon fate has blocked the relationship between two people, it's a pity!
"What if..... If I can, I'll go" This relationship has always been unable to let go in my heart, and it is precisely because I care that I remind myself in my heart all the time.
Shangguan Weiming suddenly remembered that the crazy words in the city were worth verifying, so he took a few steps forward, looked at the teacup on the table, and presumably his sister was just drinking tea, "By the way, when I came back, how did I hear that the wind and rain in the city were spreading what the Holy Lord Murong had done?" Is this true? ”。
Although Shangguan Yudie stayed in the room for a long time and never went out, he had also heard the people who came back from outside talking about the Murong Holy Lord, and he had heard a little.
"Brother sit down first, drink some tea," Shangguan Yudie said, pointing to the tea table on the side, then turned around, poured a cup of tea on the tea table, and put it next to his brother.
"Actually, I don't know why this matter has developed to this point, but after my brother found the treasure golden wood and stone of the ancient millennium for Murong Holy Lord, Murong Holy Lord is like a different person, I heard those subordinates say that Murong Holy Lord wants to cover the sky with one hand, and there is no need for the minister's advice above the court, saying that she can defeat the Demon Lord with her strength alone, I don't know where the confidence comes from......." Shangguan Yudie said everything he knew.
When Shangguan Weiming heard these words from his sister in front of him, he expressed disbelief, could it be that the Holy Lord Murong really wanted to break his promise? Above the court, how important is the minister's advice to the human race, how can he not listen to it? What did Holy Lord Murong think in his heart, was it really as everyone said that everything he did was to get higher power?
"Then these ministers of the DPRK and China just stared at each other and did nothing? You can't put everything on Murong Holy Lord alone, if that's the case, our human race won't end well," Shangguan Weiming said.
Shangguan Yudie shook his head, the ministers didn't understand what his brother said, "It's just that no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get the permission of the Murong Holy Lord, and in the end, they could only run into walls everywhere, and gradually withdrew from the court, and now almost no one dares to continue to talk about these things with the Murong Holy Lord, and there will be no more such things as the court accepting advice", many ministers are afraid of the authority of the Murong family, and they dare not speak in order to protect the rights and interests they should have.
Shangguan Weiming's whole person was shocked, before he left, Murong Holy Lord didn't have such an attitude, why was the development of things so unpredictable? Is it really for the so-called rights?
"Brother, I don't understand why the Holy Lord of Murong is doing this, it's not good for anyone to do this, is power really worth what a person yearns for?" Shangguan Yudie can only tell his brother this question, and if he tells it to his father, I am afraid that he will be punished.
Shangguan Weiming held the teacup that had just arrived for tea in his hand, and swallowed his saliva downward, "Sister, you must remember that no matter how great a person's ultimate ability is, he cannot become a person who controls the fate of others, and he cannot play with the fate of others at will, of course power is not so important, properly grasping power will give the entire human race hope, but if you grasp power too much, I am afraid that it will put our human race in danger."
Shangguan Yudie nodded, "I understand, brother."
It seems that this matter is indeed not simple, could it be that the Holy Lord Murong was just talking about his promise at the beginning, and he didn't mean to travel? Now that I think about it, I think it's a little ridiculous, it is really a thankless thing to risk so hard outside to find this ancient thousand-year-old treasure golden wood stone, and now it has to become the best tool for Murong Holy Lord to fight for power!
"I think it is necessary to discuss this matter with my father, if we rely on the strength of our Shangguan family, we may be able to have a balance with the Murong family, and when all the ministers are on our side, the Holy Lord Murong will also realize his mistake!" Shangguan Weiming said.
So I waited for my father's return in the main hall.
Alone in the main hall, the air really seems quiet, as if it has been condensed, but there is a faint pain in my heart, after all, I have just walked out of the realm of a person who should be deeply loved, and after returning here, it seems that everything has not changed, but it has changed again.
Will she really eat well after she leaves herself? was originally such a lively person, but she cried heartbreakingly that day, did she have a good life? Is her heart, like her own, aching?
"Ziling, how I want you to feel that I miss you, but I can't be perceived by you, it may be a good thing not to know, as long as you can live a good life, then I will also have hope, I will work hard to find a way to solve the fate of the demon clan, and I don't want to live alone without your company in the future, maybe it will be meaningless......" Shangguan Weiming said to himself.
But at this time, I heard the footsteps of my father returning to the house.
He immediately got up from his chair and respectfully waited for his father to return.
Prime Minister Shangguan was not very surprised when he saw that his son was in the main hall, but just walked over indifferently and said, "I'm back."
"It's back".
"How's it going?"
Shangguan did not know that there was no answer.
