After Mao Riwu left, Cheng Haofeng also walked out of the ghost king's room. He didn't linger in the maze, but walked to the woods to calmly sort out the pros and cons.

It was the early morning of June 20, and the dawn was dyeing the high snowy peaks red. This Kunwu Mountain stretches for thousands of miles, with layers of mountains and mountains, majestic and solemn, and the cold and steep feeling of Lingshan Mountain, this Kunwu Mountain is a sense of majesty.

Cheng Haofeng looked up, the silver-white snow peak that stood next to the sky was the place where the ancestor attained the Tao, the highest peak in Kunwu, Gexiong Peak.

The sky in Night City was dazzlingly blue, and Cheng Haofeng had the idea of flying into this blue clear sky and rolling a few times, whether his whole body would be soaked in blue. He smiled slightly at his thoughts, he didn't know that under the pomegranate branches and leaves beside him, Hu Xianxian, who was parasitic in Caique, also thought the same.

Cheng Haofeng turned his head to look at the southeast corner, his face gloomy. In the southeast corner, you can see the shadow of several carved towers in the distance, which is the carved tower set up by Mao Riwu's Denglong Fort.

Mao Riwu gave him the mansion given to him by the king of Fanbang and constantly rebuilt and expanded, forming a real fortress with 100 acres of width, luxurious houses and solid carved buildings. Denglong Fort is close to the deep valley and the high mountain at the back, and the twelve carved towers are equipped with various exquisite mechanisms, and the adjacent to the maze cave are each other's horns, which is really easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Cheng Haofeng sighed secretly, others have been operating various forces for many years, and he is almost fighting for his life with his bare hands. After all, Qingqiu Country is not something that can be controlled casually; There are many restrictions in the Undersea Sacred Realm, and there are not too many secular battles to be involved; It has really become an urgent matter to establish your own power.

Hu Xianxian saw that his brows were tightly locked, and he was also worried. The most fundamental basis for a practitioner is to ascend to heaven and enlighten the Dao, and all other fame and fortune are just expedient measures to facilitate cultivation, but how can one attain enlightenment to the Heavenly Dao? Providence is the most unpredictable.

Providence is unpredictable, and so is Providence. Cheng Haofeng wanted to solve the problem simply by directly dividing Bai Huifeng and Hu Xianxian into two people, each with their own responsibilities, but he didn't expect it to make the problem more complicated.

After all, he still had to be tempered step by step, and at the same time, he also drove Hu Xianxian to be tempered. That thousand tribulations could not be avoided, and Hu Xianxian intuitively felt that his own unwinding of the spell would not proceed smoothly according to the steps. But if you want Cheng Haofeng to give up on her, it is not feasible, there is no turning back from the bow, it has come to this point, no matter how difficult it is, you have to go on.

After Cheng Haofeng pondered for a long time, Mao Riwu sent someone to ask him to continue the negotiation. This time, Mao Riwu put Dorjee. Keller and Ling Ruofeng were also invited to discuss the same meeting. After talking, there are still some key points that do not give in to each other.

Mao Riwu faced Cheng Haofeng, who did not let go of life and death, and earnestly promised the conditions: "If you want to live your ideal life, the problems you want to solve cannot be done well by yourself." As long as you can transfer your rights to us to the maximum, we will spare no effort to help you. ”

Cheng Haofeng's attitude was still very firm, and Zhengse said: "I can only promise not to infringe on your vested interests, or to give you greater benefits without involving principles." However, it is absolutely impossible to take this opportunity to make me agree to something that is completely contrary to my personality and national dignity. ”

Mao Riwu was so anxious that he wanted to scold angrily, but he knew that it would not help. He didn't expect Cheng Haofeng to believe in the method of solving the spell he proposed so easily, it seemed that it was easy to coax; I didn't expect Cheng Haofeng to be so intransigent when it comes to the interests of the people of the country, and he seems to be very shrewd.

Mao Riwu only blamed himself for underestimating Cheng Haofeng, and fell into passivity from the beginning of the negotiation. He forgot about Hu Xianxian's method of unraveling the spell, for Cheng Haofeng, who is crazy in love, as long as he can keep her by his side, he didn't think about the twists and turns at all, and believed him in just a few words.

And when dealing with the affairs of the people of the country, Cheng Haofeng is still in a state of his own sanity and integrity, so he will not give Mao Riwu a chance.

Seeing that no matter how Mao Riwu coerced and tempted, Cheng Haofeng did not back down, and the ghost king gloated and said to Mao Riwu: "You always say that I and Duan Tianfei are useless, now you know that he is not easy to deal with, right?" You don't want to think about it, he doesn't have any aura at all, and when he is about to die, he can still set up a formation to trap Duan Tianfei, how difficult is it when he is strong and healthy? ”

Cheng Haofeng sat on a low couch, Mao Riwu, Duoji. Kahler and Ling Ruofeng's eyes were all staring at him, and they all hated to see him through.

Cheng Haofeng of the Ghost Dynasty raised his hand, and praised as if the merchant was shouting at his goods: "You treat him as a soft persimmon that anyone can pinch, so you understand that he is actually a hard bone, right?" ”

"Some people just look domineering, but as soon as people grasp the weakness, they will be cowardly. Tsk, Brother Cheng just looks weak and bullied, but it's actually difficult to make him succumb! ”

The ghost king praised Cheng Haofeng quite proudly, and several other people frowned when they heard it, and Cheng Haofeng himself tightened his brows.

The ghost king continued to boast, and one after another high hats were put on Cheng Haofeng's head. Cheng Haofeng couldn't listen to it anymore, and interrupted the ghost king's words: "Are you praising me, or are you praising me?" You want everyone in the world to hate me, right? ”

The Ghost King touched his chin in a sneer, and Ling Ruofeng continued in a mean tone: "Even if the Ghost King doesn't say those words, there are countless people who hate you and can't wait to see you die without a place to be buried." ”

"Do you really hate me so much? Would I rather die? Oh, what is the fear of death? It's not like I haven't died. Cheng Haofeng smiled, he was really not afraid of others hating him, nor was he afraid of death, what he was afraid of was not being able to live his life according to his own heart.

After hearing this, the ghost king said with some excitement: "That's it, that's it!" What is there to fear from death? I've never lived, but don't I live well? ”

The ghost king is the condensation and transformation of the anger of grievances, and it is true that he has "never lived", but he has experienced a long time, and it can also be said that he "lived well". This is a logical word, but it sounds very grotesque, and everyone is speechless and chuckles.

After laughing, Dorjee. Kahler asked again in a fierce voice: "Ghost King, which side do you belong to?" ”

"It's not either side, I'm just watching the show." The Ghost King sharpened his long nails with a delicate knife.

"Watching a play? How can you approach things with this attitude? ”

"When I was suffering and being trapped, weren't you also watching a play?" The ghost king smiled contemptuously at Dorjee who was humming. Khler.

The two of them quarreled endlessly, Mao Riwu looked at Cheng Haofeng, who was sitting quietly as usual, slammed the table, and shouted: "Give me silence!" ”

After Mao Riwu calmed down the scene, he reluctantly made some concessions, and they agreed on many things.

Some of the most critical things were done according to Cheng Haofeng's requirements. Fanbang fully supported the succession of Han Zexi, the king of Shenjun, and maintained friendly and good-neighborly relations with the French dynasty. As for whether to form a brotherly state, and what specific mutual assistance matters should be agreed between each other, Han Zexi will personally decide after he ascends the throne.

France and North Korea fully opened the treaty ports to Fanbang, and the two sides traded at a parity. As for trade affairs, Mao Riwu was in charge of the overall responsibility, and the French and Korean dynasties appointed two deputies to assist. The defense of all treaty ports was the responsibility of the French and Korean troops. These garrisons have relatively independent deaconship powers, and the land for the garrison and the military expenses and silver are allocated and raised by the places where they belong to the trade.

Some special talents in Fanbang, such as the last god Zhatso, were specially given fiefs by the French Dynasty. Zacuo was given the title of "Marquis of Shacheng", and the city of Sha Xue was a fief within a radius of 100 miles, and he could handle the affairs of the fief independently. However, the real sovereignty of the fiefdom was subordinate to the French dynasty. If Zha Cuo commits major crimes such as bullying the king, treason, and collaborating with the enemy, the French dynasty should take back the fief.

Now that the main matters have been agreed, Cheng Haofeng is ready to set off for the border city of Ningcui Garden. Mao Riwu said that he would also transcribe the specific method of unifying the spell and let Cheng Haofeng leave again on June 21.

Cheng Haofeng had to agree and temporarily live in the ghost king's room. The Ghost King and Mao Riwu had other matters to discuss, and after they left, only him and Ling Ruofeng were left in the room.

Ling Ruofeng's long black hair was draped straight over her shoulders, and she was wearing a dark red dress, and she was a little glamorous under the candlelight.

She has always been a proud and cold person, but at this time, she has a bit of a ripe peach-like charm when she gets rid of her arrogant expression.

Hu Xianxian intuitively felt that the ghost king deliberately wanted Ling Ruofeng and Cheng Haofeng to be alone, she was very uneasy, so she made Caique sneak in quietly and hide in the bird specimens.

Fortunately, Caique slipped in quickly, and as soon as it hid Ling Ruofeng, it locked the door.

"I was originally the prime minister's daughter, and I can't even look down on those princes and grandsons, and I only have a soft spot for you. Do you dare to say that I have followed your cultivation for many years, and you have never been moved by me? If there was no white wind to insert a bar, you and I would already be a fairy couple, how could you suffer so much suffering now? ”

Cheng Haofeng had been meditating on the low couch, never moving for half a minute, and when he heard Ling Ruofeng speak, his slightly closed eyes did not open.

Cheng Haofeng replied: "You and I have known each other for so many years, why can't you understand the simplest truth?" I've been touched by you, but I've never been in love. If emotion can be transformed into love, then you have already accepted your affection long before the seventh senior sister appeared! ”

Ling Ruofeng's words and deeds made Hu Xianxian feel very incomprehensible, did she want to make Cheng Haofeng upset and make mistakes in doing things? Or has she never been able to let go of Cheng Haofeng, and she wants to be able to enter his heart at the slightest opportunity?

Hu Xianxian had a headache when he thought about it, and Caique, who didn't understand emotional entanglements at all, felt a headache. Cai Que patted his head with his wing feathers and conveyed his intentions to Hu Xianxian with his heart. The meaning of Caique's message is: Transform into a person to deal with this kind of trouble? Being a human being is so difficult, why do heterogeneous cultivators still have to transform into human beings?

Hu Xianxian couldn't explain these questions clearly, but looked at them helplessly.

Ling Ruofeng chuckled poignantly: "You haven't had a love for me, and you only blame me for being too reserved, so that you don't treat me as a woman." If I had been more courteous to you earlier, and more delicate and girlish in front of you, how could you have allowed others to seduce? If it weren't for their charm and coquettishness that seduced your heart, how could our relationship be ruined? ”

Ling Ruofeng sat next to Cheng Haofeng, leaned on his shoulder, and said softly: "I'd rather let go of your reserve for you, are you willing to accept me?" Hu Xianxian is really not suitable for you, she will not change anything for you, and you will only quarrel when you are together. We are the most suitable pair, and if she hadn't deliberately sabotaged it, I wouldn't have treated you fiercely again and again. I can be gentle and virtuous for you......"

"Don't always think about things in that box, think about it from the perspective of a bystander - if a man would rather be abstinent than accept that woman's affection for decades, can he blame someone else for not coming together?"

Cheng Haofeng still replied with his eyes slightly closed and his expression calm, but his tone was obviously not so calm.

Caique was very angry, and his neck hair stood up. Hu Xianxian appeased Cai Que with his thoughts: What is there to be angry about? Be careful not to let them find out. Alas, it's better to let him accept Ling Ruofeng. In this way, I can rest assured that I can boldly pick and choose, easily throw away the red dust and mundane things, and completely liberate.
