I heard Mr. Kobayashi's voice seem to be a little choked, and I couldn't help but glance sideways at him, only to see him looking up at the soul of Emperor Jianwen in the sky, and there were crystal tears flashing in his eyes.

I suddenly felt a little sympathy for Mr. Kobayashi, and I understood his feelings.

A person has been tirelessly pursuing something for hundreds of years, and once it is achieved, that feeling is really indescribable.

"That's right," Mr. Kobayashi suddenly remembered something, wiped a handful of tears, looked back at me, and said with a smile: "There is one more thing that I don't seem to have made clear to you yet, and that is the origin of Xiang Tianwen's identity." ”

Mr. Kobayashi didn't talk about it, I almost forgot about it, I have always been curious, what is it to ask the sky.

Mr. Kobayashi smiled, this time, he smiled a little sadly, and said: "Actually, Xiang Tianwen is the same senior brother as me, I am the senior brother, and he is the junior brother. We studied the same art, ate at the same table, slept in the same bed, and even fell in love with the same woman at the same time. But in the end, none of us married that woman, because we didn't want to destroy the friendship between our brothers and sisters for the sake of a woman. ”

I never expected that.

In this way, Xiang Tianwen is a person of the same era as Mr. Kobayashi, so he is also a person with a soul possession.

Emperor Xudu introduced Xiang Tianwen to me as a master, so Emperor Xudu should also know his identity? Isn't it strange that Emperor Xudu knew Xiang Tianwen's identity, and he even let Xiang Tianwen exist in the world like this?

Mr. Kobayashi said: "Later, Xiang Tianwen and I took refuge in Emperor Jianwen together, and together we were loyal to the emperor and did our best for the imperial court. Since then, we have been born and died together, and life and death have been entrusted to each other. ”

This kind of friendship is indeed rare, but why, later, they turned their faces and became hostile people?

Mr. Kobayashi continued: "But later, perhaps it was really the will of heaven that we could not stop the footsteps of King Yan's army despite our best efforts, and Emperor Jianwen finally lost the country. On that day, our brothers and sisters fled from the secret passage with Emperor Jianwen, and the emperor was weak and couldn't help the smoke in the secret passage, and finally died. ”

"Our senior brothers are so grief-stricken that they almost kill themselves with a knife to thank the emperor." Mr. Kobayashi was lying on the ridge, and the whole person seemed to have fallen into memory, "Later, I got the guidance of the master, and I saw a glimmer of hope, planning to resurrect Emperor Jianwen and return me to the orthodox country of the Ming Dynasty." However, Xiang Tianwen did not agree with me to do so. He thought that Emperor Jianwen had exhausted his strength, and it was the will of heaven that King Yan got the country. Since the will of heaven wants Jianwen to die Yan Wang Xing, then we should obey the mandate of heaven and not go against the sky. ”

Mr. Kobayashi looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh and said, "From that time on, our senior brothers finally had a disagreement, until finally they completely parted ways and became your mortal enemies. ”

"But there is one thing we think the same thing," Mr. Kobayashi continued, "After the death of Emperor Jianwen, the newly appointed Yongle Emperor went after us everywhere, vowing to cut us down to the roots. Those who escaped with us were all loyal guards to Emperor Jianwen, and they were also our good brothers from birth to death. So, we can't leave them alone, we should find a way to save them. ”

At this time, I have calmed down a lot and can think about problems.

I listened to Mr. Kobayashi speak in my ears, and my eyes looked at the soul of Emperor Jianwen floating in the sky, and I tried to move my body, and I felt that my strength seemed to have recovered somewhat.

Perhaps, when my strength recovers a little more, I can slap Mr. Kobayashi on the door of the head while he is not looking, and send his soul back to hell!

Without Mr. Kobayashi's support, I believe that Emperor Jianwen will not do anything.

Or, if Mr. Kobayashi's kung fu is too high, I can also send Emperor Jianwen back to hell directly. In this way, maybe Mr. Kobayashi will also be bored and finish his own work.

In any case, as long as I regain some strength and send either of the two of them away, Mr. Kobayashi's so-called great cause of restoration will come to an end.

So, what I need most now is time, time!

This is my only chance to come back and make a comeback!

So, I said to Mr. Kobayashi, "So you brothers and sisters fled to Yuanbao Village with those brothers?" ”

Mr. Kobayashi said, "The escape process was really hard. You should know the saying 'the wind is loud, the grass and trees are soldiers', right? But you certainly haven't really experienced what that feels like. We can't eat a meal or sleep at all. At the slightest hint of the wind and grass, we would jump up in terror and look for the assassin hiding in the shadows like a madman, and many of our brothers would go completely insane in this way, and some would simply kill themselves. ”

I said coldly, "If you had cut yourself off at that time, there wouldn't have been so many things later." ”

Mr. Kobayashi didn't seem to hear the sarcasm in my words, and continued to say leisurely: "I don't know that after traveling tens of thousands of miles, we finally came to this place in Yuanbao Village. At that time, that place was much more remote and secretive than it is now. We were finally able to settle down there and put down roots. At that time, there were less than a hundred of our brothers who escaped from the secret passages of the palace together. ”

In order to hide people's eyes, all those brothers changed their names and surnames, and in order to show their loyalty to the country and not forget the old master, they all changed their surnames to the country. Only my junior brother and I have not changed our names, and we still maintain our original surnames. ”

"This means that you and your junior brother are not loyal to the country and have never forgotten the old master." I say.

Mr. Kobayashi continued, "After the brothers have settled down, I will begin my restoration in earnest. My junior brother asked Heaven to know about my plan, and said that I would cause countless innocent deaths and misery. Instead of supporting me, he said he was going to stop me no matter what. From then on, our brothers finally went completely against each other. However, we grew up together, learned art together, grew up together, and fought like this for hundreds of years, but the result was that I couldn't help him, and he couldn't help me. ”

I couldn't help but ask: "Then Emperor Xudu should know Xiang Tianwen's identity, why did you become a wanted criminal in the underworld, but Xiang Tianwen let him go unpunished?" ”

Mr. Kobayashi said, "That's a good explanation. First, Emperor Xudu knew about Xiang Tianwen's relationship with me, and he wanted to keep Xiang Tianwen to deal with me; Second, Xiang Tianwen hid in the mountains, almost without leaving home, harmless to people and animals, and it was almost like death, so there was no need to take him to the underworld; Third, at the beginning, those brothers who escaped were also bent on recovering the country. Although their number is not large, there are still many people in the world who sympathize with Emperor Jianwen, and once they come out, they are likely to gather a lot of power. And Xiang Tianwen has always been very prestigious among them, and keeping him can play a role in suppressing those brothers. Therefore, looking at the world, Xiang Tianwen should be the only person who has been possessed by the soul of Emperor Xudu who has been agreed to stay in the human world. ”

I said: "Emperor Xudu definitely didn't expect that in the end, Xiang Tianwen still fell for your calculations, and even your soul was taken by you, and there was no chance to reincarnate as a human being." ”

Mr. Kobayashi showed a sad expression and said, "Actually, I can't bear to do this, and my heart hurts when I receive his soul. But I know that if I don't get rid of him, he will definitely hinder my great cause of recovery, and I can only kill him. ”

I snorted coldly and said, "Everyone who does bad things says that they are forced to do so. Even if you kill countless people, you can still find a high-sounding excuse. Next, you must want to say that for the great cause of restoring the country, small sacrifices are inevitable, right? ”

"That's how it is." Mr. Kobayashi said, "One will succeed and ten thousand bones will wither, this is the eternal truth." ”
