Chapter 70: Goodbye and Smiling
Qing Ning put her eyes on the window, she was waiting, waiting for her husband to return safely.
And after hearing Qing Ning's words, the maid was so frightened that she knelt directly on the ground, she didn't know what she had done wrong, and she was so disgusted by the princess.
Originally, I just wanted to remind the princess to serve the commander well, but now?
But because of his own mouth, he gave himself the disaster of killing himself.
"The princess spares her life, the princess spares her life!"
The maid's voice carried a hint of crying, but such a voice could not make Qing Ning pity.
"Spare your life, if you don't manage your mouth well, it's a disaster, you know?"
"You are the one who followed the palace out of the palace, and you don't even understand this, and you even want to let the palace spare you! Do you think that the palace has a good temperament, so you start to be unscrupulous?"
"Okay, twenty years of responsibility, life and death are up to heaven. ”
didn't give the maid any reaction, Qingning's words just fell, and the grandmother next to her immediately took the maid down.
Originally, the maid wanted to ask for mercy, but when she was taken away, the grandmother directly sealed the other party's mouth, and she didn't even have a chance to ask for help.
As soon as Chu Duan entered the room, he saw the scene in front of him, and he frowned.
didn't open his mouth to stop it, originally thinking about whether this Qing Ning in front of him was the person he was looking for, but unfortunately it wasn't.
When he saw the other party disposing of a palace maid, he understood that this woman was not the person he was waiting for, she was a princess, a princess of a small world.
He is also a mortal, but his appearance is similar to his name.
Chu Duan's arrival surprised Qing Ning very much, and she quickly got up and walked towards Chu Duan.
After getting close to the other party, he asked, "Husband, when did you come back?"
"It's just arrived, just hurry up. ”
"I'm going to go to the palace, and you have to recuperate. ”
For some reason, after Chu Duan knew that the other party was not the person he was waiting for, the longing for Qingning in his eyes had completely disappeared, and he could only be indifferent when he waited.
His eyes were fixed on the woman in front of him, but they were cold.
And Qing Ning is a person in the palace, how can he not even see Chu Duan's eyes?
What did you do?
Is it because of the disposal of a palace maid, so this makes the other party dissatisfied?
That's just a subordinate, or a palace maid, is she not even a palace maid in the eyes of her husband?
Thinking of such a result, Qing Ning's eyes were gloomy, she just nodded and did not speak, after Chu Duan left, Qing Ning immediately came to the backyard and said to the person who was preparing to be executed: "Stick to death!"
Two words, and the life of a palace maid was buried here.
And Chu Duan didn't know that just because of his eyes, a life disappeared.
He returned to the palace, and when he saw the emperor, he immediately clasped his hands into fists and said, "Weichen see the emperor!"
"Chu Aiqing, when did you come back?"
"Come and let me take a look, hahaha, Chu Aiqing, you have done a very good job, and now this war not only gives you a foothold, but also divides the Zhao State from the other three countries. ”
"Now that Chu Aiqing has won the battle, what do you want?"
The emperor's eyes were full of excitement, after all, it was Chu Duan who gave them the future, and it was Chu Duan who gave them the place they had found.
Chu Duan set his eyes on the other party, and then replied to the emperor's words: "Weichen didn't have anything to want, but Weichen found one thing." ”
"After the defeat of the underworld this time, they will not let go, they have a national teacher, I don't know if the emperor thought of this?"
"Although the first war was won, if the national teacher of the underworld made a move, I am afraid that it would be more than just a war. ”
Chu Duan said lightly, since the ability of this national teacher, since the deputy generals around him know it, then the emperor must also know about it.
The reason why he raised the question of becoming a national teacher was naturally because of himself.
Chu Duan has never helped others for no reason, so naturally he will not mention this issue for no reason.
After the emperor heard Chu Duan's words, the smile on his face gradually dimmed.
He asked, "I have indeed heard about the matter of the Underworld Teacher, but what does this matter have to do with us?"
"The national teacher of the underworld has never led a soldier, and Aiqing doesn't have to worry about this. ”
The emperor was a little dissatisfied because of the problem mentioned by Chu Duan, but because Chu Duan had just won the battle, he naturally gave the other party enough faces.
Moreover, he had seen Chu Duan's skills before, and he would not choose to offend Chu Duan, but he also had three points of jealousy of Chu Duan in his heart.
Without a single soldier, 50,000 enemies were destroyed.
Able to sprinkle beans into soldiers!
He can even make suggestions to the national teachers of the underworld.
Chu Duan's thoughts and his abilities were enough to defend his position.
"Your Majesty, this matter can be big or small, Weichen wants to go to the underworld and meet this national teacher. ”
Chu Duan had never come into contact with anyone in the officialdom, and now he naturally couldn't see through the emperor's thoughts, and he didn't know that his actions had moved the emperor's selfish desires.
He just wanted to know how to go back at the moment, and other things, in Chu Duan's opinion, were nothing.
"Yes, I promise you. ”
The Emperor pondered for a few minutes, then agreed.
Although the emperor didn't know what Chu Duan wanted to do, now that Chu Duan had made this suggestion, how could he possibly refuse?
"But since Aiqing has returned, I will pick up the wind and wash the dust for you tonight. ”
After speaking, the emperor was about to beckon the eunuch beside him to go down to handle this matter.
But at the moment of speaking, he was stopped by Chu Duan.
"No, Wechen will leave immediately. ”
After that, Chu Duan didn't give the emperor any face, and left the palace directly.
Seeing Chu Duan's back, the emperor slapped the table with a slap.
"Why is he so arrogant!
The surrounding eunuchs and palace maids didn't dare to move at all after hearing the emperor's words.
Just when the air froze, the favorite concubine Liu Xiangxiang walked in.
Liu Xiangxiang had been standing at the door just now, and she naturally knew what the emperor meant.
She put the bird's nest she brought in front of the emperor, and said softly to the emperor: "Your Majesty, Chu Duan is just a courtier, if the emperor is not satisfied, he can directly kill him secretly, why be angry about this matter?"
"Besides, Chu Duan has stabilized the Kingdom of the Underworld, the Kingdom of Qing and the Kingdom of Liuli for us!"
"His role has disappeared, so why should the emperor look at his face again?"
Liu Xiangxiang said as she slumped on the emperor's body.
The emperor's mood had dissipated a lot the moment he saw Liu Xiangxiang, and with such a weak figure in his arms, the emperor naturally left the previous unpleasantness behind.
He smiled and said, "What advice does Concubine Ai have?"
"There are not many suggestions from the concubines, but the emperor, now that Chu Duan has won the hearts of the people, the power in his hands is getting bigger and bigger, and the military power is in his hands, I am afraid that if he really has a heart, the emperor will have to be careful. ”
"It's better to test the temptation first, and let him surrender the military power. ”
"Although he has just married the princess, there is no affection between the princess and Chu Duan, but it is just a wedding given by the emperor, and the princess cannot be involved in Chu Duan at all. ”
"So let's try and test first, and if he doesn't agree, then we'll find an excuse to make an example of the monkeys. ”
Liu Xiangxiang said as she put her hand on the emperor's heart.
The emperor was silent for a long time, and finally carried Liu Xiangxiang into the room.
The sound from the room made the eunuch and the palace maid retreat.
And Chu Duan, who is in the realm of the underworld, has already found the person he is looking for.
"Monk, are you a distraction?"
Chu Duan was in a hurry, and he never thought that a person would suddenly appear in front of him.
This person was dressed in red, and although his voice was cold, he could hear that the other party was a woman.
Knowing the monk, knowing the distraction, this person does not seem to be a person of this world.
"Who are you?"
Chu Duan stopped and looked at the other party.
"Your voice... Somewhat familiar. ”
As she spoke, the woman took off the mask on her face, revealing a face that suddenly surprised Chu Duan.
Smiling?
How did she end up here?
And Zhan smiled after taking a closer look at Chu Duan, and then recognized the identity of the other party.
After being surprised, Zhan smiled and suddenly showed a smile: "I thought you were dead, but I didn't expect you to be alive." ”
"When did you come here?"
The relationship between the two can be regarded as friends, after all, if Chu Duan hadn't met Zhan Yan at the beginning, he would not have strangled Yongji so quickly.
However, the sentence of the smile was also the sentence that Chu Duan wanted to ask.
Chu Duan set his eyes on Zhan Xiao's body, originally Zhan Yi had already reached the peak of cultivation in the late Yuan Infant period, but now, it was only in the peak stage of the late foundation building stage.
"You've only been in this world for a while, what's the matter with you?"
Chu Duan asked the question in his heart.
After asking, Zhan smiled and handed a pot of wine to Chu Duan, and then told him about his coming here.
"When you fought with Eternal Trace, I was actually in Yinshan. ”
"But because of my low cultivation, I was soon struck by lightning and fainted, as for what happened next, I don't know, I just know that after I woke up, I came to this world. ”
"It's been a hundred years. ”
"But I'm the national teacher of the underworld, the people in the small world are really simple, I didn't give them any benefits, I just counted the hexagram, and I was named the national teacher, you say it's funny or not. ”
Zhan smiled and said with a smile, for this position, Zhan Xiao didn't care at all.
She just wants to get back to her own world.
The aura in this world is thin, and there are demons and demons, but their abilities are too weak.
For Zhan Smile, there is no interest at all.
However, Chu Duan was a little surprised after hearing the identity of Zhan Xiao.
I didn't expect that the person I was looking for was Zhan Smile, and Zhan Smile has been in this world for a hundred years, and he hasn't found a way to go back.
Is it really necessary to wait until three months later for the system to open the channel?
"I haven't found a way to go back either, and this place has suppressed my cultivation, so I can't open the passage now. ”
"I came to look for you, but I didn't know who you were. ”
Chu Duan took a sip of wine, it had been a hundred years, and he had only met a familiar person, he originally thought that in this strange world, he would always be alone, but what he didn't expect was that he even met Zhan Yi.
"Looking for me? It seems that there are quite a lot of rumors about me, what? What are you going to do now?"
In fact, Zhan Xiaoxiao originally thought that Chu Duan and Yongji would die together, but after seeing Chu Dui, Zhan Xiaoxiao became curious, how did Chu Duan be reborn?
It seems that Chu Dui's body hides a lot of secrets.
But these secrets, Zhan smiled and never thought to ask about them.
According to the character of the other party, I am afraid that the other party is unwilling to say, and it is in vain to ask myself.
"Step by step, I want to find the spiritual vein first to see if I can restore the spiritual energy of this world, and then through the spiritual vein, the passage will be opened. ”
This is the only thing Chu Duan can do now, after all, Chu Duan has never been a person who likes to sit still.
"Okay, take me, why don't you leave now?"
"I've been to many places in the past hundred years, and there are a few places that resemble spiritual veins, but I'm not sure. ”
"And these places with spiritual veins actually have the breath of the ancient gods, you also know that I am a demon, and entering it is equivalent to sending me to death, so I don't dare to rush forward. ”
Zhan smiled and said directly what he thought in his heart, it was not that he had not looked for these places, but he had never found anything, he originally thought that he would be trapped here for the rest of his life, until he died!
But after seeing Chu Duan coming, she knew that she had a chance to go out.
Chu Duan believed in Zhan Xiao's words very much, and let Zhan Miao lead the way in front of him at the moment.
After the two decided, Zhan smiled and flew in front, while Chu Duan followed closely, and an hour later, the two reached the top of Thunder Mountain.
Standing on the top of the mountain, Chu Duan felt the breath of the spiritual vein.
Consistent with the statement of the smile, the breath of this spiritual vein also contains the breath of the ancient gods.
There were many races of the Ancient Protoss, but after the Great War, these Protoss have fallen.
It seems that it was these gods who fell in the small world, which led to the depletion of the spiritual energy in the small world.
Chu Duan smiled towards Zhan and said, "You wait here, I'll go down." ”
After all, gods and demons are not separated, if there is really a remnant soul of the god race, I am afraid that it will not be able to tolerate a smile.
Zhan smiled naturally unwilling to follow, she said, "Okay, if there is any danger, you notify me, and I will come down to help immediately." ”
With that, Zhan smiled and set an enchantment around him.
And Chu Duan naturally followed down the mountain to investigate the location of the heart of the spirit vein.
As soon as Chu Duan went down, he felt the fluctuating aura of the spiritual vein, and he quickly found the location of the heart of the spiritual vein, which was at the bottom of a cliff.
Just as Chu Duan was about to go down, several men in white suddenly appeared in front of him, and this group of men surrounded Chu Duan in the middle.
From their bodies, Chu Duan felt the presence of aura.
"Who are you, and why did you break into our faction?"
One of the men in white stood up directly and asked Chu Duan.
After hearing this, Chu Duan said expressionlessly: "Great World, Chu Dui!"
But all monks know that there are three thousand worlds in this world, and among them there are large worlds and small worlds.
And the cultivation of this group of monks is very low, and the highest cultivation is only to reach enlightenment. 、
And after they heard Chu Duan's words, they put down the long swords in their hands one after another.
The person who took the lead asked even more suspiciously: "Your cultivation is indeed higher than ours, but why do you say that you are a senior from the Great World?"
"As far as I know, the monks of the big world have never reached the small world, not to mention that our small world lacks spiritual energy, what is the purpose of your coming?"
"Senior brother, how can you believe him, what if he is a liar?"
"Yes, senior brother, what if he comes to grab the treasure?"
Senior brother is Sun Meng, who is talking to Chu Duan.
Sun Meng is the disciple of the head of the Chang'an faction, and he is also the highest disciple in the entire sect.
After hearing their doubts, Chu Duan said, "I was accidentally sucked in by the passage, and now the deity wants to open the spiritual veins of this small world." ”
"It's okay to go back, and if you obstruct it again, the deity will not be welcome. ”
Chu Duan didn't bother to talk nonsense with this group of people, for him, this group of people was wasting his time.
Sun Meng is not an unreasonable person, it is true that there was an abnormality in the channel some time ago, but when they went to check, the abnormality had already recovered, and they naturally couldn't find anything wrong.
"The juniors are not suspicious of the seniors, but in order to protect the Chang'an sect, the juniors will naturally need to ask more, in this case, the seniors please. ”
Sun Meng glared at the person behind him, and then said respectfully to Chu Duan.
Chu Duan's purpose was to open the spiritual vein, and he naturally understood what the spiritual vein was.
If the spiritual veins were opened, their cultivation would naturally not stay in this period forever. ,
They will also be like the people of the big world, they will fly, they will become gods.
Just when the other little disciples wanted to say something, Chu Duan had already left.
"Senior brother, how can you just let him go?"
The little disciple next to him said angrily.
"What do you know, in his eyes, we are ants! Do you remember what the master once said?"
"The people from the big world are different from us. ”
"After they enter here, their cultivation will be suppressed by the Heavenly Dao Theory, and the cultivation of that person is at least in the Jindan period, and it is conceivable that he is also a great power in the big world. ”
"If you dare to say a word more, I'm afraid that you are now dead, okay, hurry back with me to report to the master. ”
After speaking, Sun Meng flew back towards the sect without looking back, not giving the other junior disciples a chance to refute.
