Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Hunt
Dense dark clouds, slowly discreet, a ray of sunlight, shining on the shallows.
A group of dozens of people, riding horses and escorting several carriages, slowly drove out of the tree-lined path.
"Senior brother, rest for a while, even if people can persevere, the horses can't hold on."
One of the riders turned his head to look at the middle-aged man beside him.
The middle-aged man's eyes were still bloodshot and worried, but seeing that everyone was tired and listless, he really couldn't do it, so he finally nodded:
"Okay, then rest for a while."
"Attention, watch out for pursuers!"
The junior brother smiled reluctantly, cheered up, dismounted and walked, and led the horse to the river.
In the carriage covered by a curtain behind, Boyang Daoist wore white linen clothes, slowly walked down on crutches.
Yu Yu sighed, looked at the sky, and shook his head:
"How quickly is the damnation?"
The three people who have always been profound, since that day, have been attacked one after another, and now he is the only one who can still stand and speak.
Despite this, his sideburns were also aging, turning white overnight, his skin was dull and full of wrinkles, like an old man.
In his eyes, he was cloudy and unfocused, and there was no sparkle at all.
"I think that at the beginning, the old man was also healthy, his face was like a child, he was sixty years old and his body was not decaying····· Now I can't even walk a few steps. ”
He coughed twice and said to the two disciples who were serving him beside him:
"Don't bother, leave the three of us here, you scatter and flee, maybe half of us will escape······· If you take us with you again, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave! ”
His disciple Xu Changling was still young, and his eyes were full of tears at this time, and he choked up:
"Master, how can the apprentice leave you behind and escape alone?"
Boyang Daoist scolded:
"How unwise is an idiot? You say you can save me by staying? ”
"Stay, sooner or later, you will be caught up!"
"The three of us are already wasted, what can we do when we go back to the door?"
"A few of you are still young, go back, you have your ancestors to take care of you, and you will be worthy of me if you live and cultivate well in the future!"
As he spoke, he raised his cane and made a gesture to knock it.
Xu Changling knelt on his knees and kowtowed heavily:
"Master, if you hadn't saved me back then, I would have either starved to death or been beaten to death, how could I leave at this time?"
“······ Let me go with you! ”
Boyang was originally just pretentious to fight, but when he heard this, he was really angry.
The crutches were knocked down heavily, without mercy.
"Let's go! Let's go! ”
"Stay and die? Funeral accompaniment? Yes?! ”
"Drag him away!"
With his chest constantly rising and falling, Bo Yang ordered a few registered disciples and forcibly dragged Xu Changling:
"The pursuers will arrive in a moment and a half, and if they don't leave, everyone will die!"
He used his aging voice to cut the railroad categorically:
"If you don't leave, it's just a few more deaths, it's better to leave us and escape at home!"
"Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood······· Who can stop the legitimate fortune of this King of Shu? ”
"But he hasn't won the world yet, Jiangnan, Youzhou, all have dragon energy."
Xu Changling struggled and shouted:
"Master, let's go together, go to Jiangnan, go to Youzhou, Li Chengye's people can't catch up there!"
"Idiot, how can you compete with the King of Shu in the south of the Yangtze River?"
"The Hu people are in civil strife, and it will be difficult to calm down for several years, and sooner or later they will be exterminated."
"You go back to the mountain with peace of mind, cultivate hard, don't have the idea of revenge, wait until the great weapon is completed, this Li Chengye is dying of old age, and you will come to mess with his world again!"
Boyang Daoren quiet road:
"He's in a lot of luck at the moment, but he can't be forever."
"He's going to get old, he's going to be dull, he's going to be self-serving······ Sooner or later, those who follow him will change their minds and no longer be loyal. ”
"At that time, if any of you cultivates to become a real person, he will be able to slowly try to disrupt his country, ruin his fortunes, destroy his laws, let his descendants kill each other, the inner court will be turbulent, and the court will be unstable······· Avenge me today! ”
Boyang Dao people had finished speaking, so they didn't say more, just urged them to leave quickly.
After all, it is a Dao karma that has been cultivated to a real person, and although there is no one in ten mana at the moment, the experience of cultivating for many years in the past is still there.
He already felt that his death was near.
Seeing dozens of people slowly leaving and scattering in all directions, he smiled bitterly and sighed:
"This is destiny········ I'm really unwilling······· It's just a little bit, it's just a little bit·······"
"The power of the Heavenly Dao is unfathomable, but it is a pity that my life's cultivation has been wasted."
Inside the carriage, Xiyun Daoist listened to this, opened his eyes with difficulty, and hummed:
“······· I don't want to be humiliated at the hands of the jailers······ Junior ······· I'm sorry for you······"
Before the words were finished, the meaning was already clear.
Prisons are very dark and cruel places in any era.
Both men and women, entering prison are indispensable for all kinds of tribulations.
Xiyun Taoist has practiced all his life, but he knows that he will die, and he would rather die here than be in prison and be humiliated by the jailers in every way.
Boyang Daoist listened, nodded again and again, and saw that the senior brothers for many years were originally also profound, fairy wind and bones, but now their faces are like gold paper, lifeless, and they are sad for a while, and they burst into tears.
After a while, smoke rose from the forest, and gradually the flames swirled and engulfed the place.
Half a mile away, a group of dozens of people, all knights, were slowly tracking their tracks along the path.
Suddenly, someone noticed the smoke billowing up:
"My lord, there is smoke in that place, and it seems that someone has set it on fire?"
The inspector in charge of tracking widened his eyes and suddenly thought of something:
"It's not good, beware of thieves setting fire to the mountain!"
"What?"
The rest of the riders were shocked.
"Quick, let's go and see, this place is dry, don't really burn it."
Soon, the group rushed to the same place, but they saw three Taoists surrounded by a strong firelight, each sitting still, pinching the trick and reciting the mantra.
The Boyang Dao people led by him, with a treasure light on his face, faintly had some majesty, and when he saw them coming, he barely opened his eyes and said:
"You are under the command of the King of Shu?"
The inspector replied:
"Exactly, you are a thief who plots to kill the king?"
Boyang Daoist listened to the word "thief Dao" and sighed:
"Becoming a king and defeating a king, that's all······· Since this seat failed to plot the king of Shu, he was convicted by the sky, and he should be ordered to do so. ”
"Sure enough, it's you······ What about your disciples? ”
The patrol looked around, the fire was already big, and it was unlikely that the three people would be captured.
Xiyun Daoist also said loudly:
"The three of us have a mystical spell, quite effective, but they have always been invincible to the fortune of heaven and earth, and today's defeat is not an exaggeration to say that it is to blame."
"But the rest have not been mixed in, and all iniquity shall be upon us."
"After I die, you can reply to the King of Shu like this."
Before he could finish speaking, a huge dead branch burst open, and the flames engulfed the three of them.
The people of Xiqi Dao did not speak up until the end, but there were no other words, just a long sigh.
Soon after the fire burned, treasure light gradually emerged from the firelight, turning into three rainbow bridges across the sky.
The vision lasted for half a moment before it faded away.
When the inspector saw this, he gritted his teeth and was so angry that he almost wanted to hit someone.
