"When I fought with him forty years ago, I clearly felt the power of his magic skills, but he was not very proficient in mastering it, and he would be defeated if his realm was not enough. ”

"And now forty years later, he must have grown, and I am already in the last years of life, and I know that the end is near. had to seal his muscles and veins, reduce his physical skills to a minimum, and then cooperate with the turtle breath method to delay his arrival and completely solve the grievances between the two families. ”

"Master, I don't think the two families are incompatible. ”

"Alas!" Zhan Jiu sighed and said, "You just saw the appearance, and the coexistence of me and Zhao Tianxiong will always maintain the balance in front of us." This is the balancing method of the Ying Emperor's technique, and it is also the result of the care of Zhong's predecessors. ”

"And I can't coexist with him, he will definitely find me in his personal name to fight hard, I will have a battle with him, either I die or he dies, this is also what my predecessors said early on. Whatever the case, the Ying family's pursuit of balance will not help each other, and the Zhao family is still huge because the forces behind it have not been destroyed. And I only have Senior Zhong behind me, and he also said before leaving this time that he would not appear in twenty or thirty years, so the Zhao family would not take care of it. Once I die, the balance will be upset, and it will be a different pattern. The academy is the first to be implicated, Ming'er, Jun'er can't escape the fate of being hunted down, I'm worried about them, and the world's bachelors, do you understand?"

Jiang Hai thought for a moment and nodded, "The truth is not very profound and can be seen through. "As soon as the master dies, Dean Xu, and the mentor will be suppressed by the Zhao family, and the Ying family will not come forward to defend it, then the management of the Zhulu Academy will get out of control, and when the time comes, it will either be managed by the Ying family, or controlled by the Zhao family." The shell of the academy will be kept, and the interior may be completely replaced, right?"

"Yes, almost. Zhan Jiu's tone was calm, as if there was no trace of worry.

"What is the chance of winning against Zhao Tianxiong?"

"It used to be fifty percent, but now it's only less than thirty percent. ”

Jiang Hai was stunned when he heard this number, because it was too low. "Is there no other way?"

"Nope!"

Jiang Hai was silent, he didn't expect this to be the result.

"Well, now that you know everything, you should also understand the duty, and as for what will happen in the future, just do your best. I wanted to pass on some exercises to you, but after watching your competition, the things on your body are not good, so there is no need for that. ”

"If you still need it, it should be the library itself, and you will be able to get it in the future. In two days you'll be back in action, and you'll be sent away. These few days have also wasted a lot of my energy, and it is difficult to make up for it. ”

"How can Shigong send me away if he can't move?" Jiang Hai asked.

"You have your own way!" he said without saying anything.

Jiang Hai could only look at the starry sky, thinking about everything he heard today, but he didn't expect that this old man turned out to be his master, and his story could only be heard after a few pots of wine. It seems that the matter with the Zhao family is not over, it is just a beginning.

Thinking about it is falling asleep.

......

Sure enough, as Shigong said, Jiang Hai walked to Zhan Jiu's side on the third day, and heard his words before he got close. "Are you sure you want to see me? I'm afraid I'll disappoint you!"

When Jiang Hai heard this, he knew that his state was extremely poor, and he was even more impatient to walk in front of him, although he was mentally prepared, he was still shocked.

"What, did I lie to you?" Zhan Jiu's lips barely moved, but there was still something to say, no wonder he had always felt that there were no emotional fluctuations before, how could he have feelings when he spoke without passing through his mouth.

His face was shriveled, like an orange peel and black and yellow elbow that had been dried for many years, especially the right half of his cheek without any blood, the cracks had been dried, and there were no blood vessels to see the bones. The white hair on his forehead is not like that seen from behind, there are not a few hairs, and his hands are on his knees, which was originally a sitting posture for Zhou Tian, but it is his hands that Jiang Hai can see, and his knees.

This is still the body that a person should have, worse than the dead branches. The only thing that could feel that he was still alive was that pair of deep and resolute eyes staring at Jiang Hai. The left half of his face moved slightly, and he smiled very reluctantly, but it made Jiang Hai feel very uncomfortable.

A person who used to be infinitely beautiful, and a strong man who spoke a little shocking was actually like this! A person endured the torture of life and death and struggled to support himself, just for his own disciples, just for the Han scholars in the world to get a relatively fair chance.

"Master!" Jiang Hai couldn't control his emotions anymore, and hugged Zhan Jiu, although it was only the first time they met, this person had been paying attention to all the students, as if he was a big tree beside him, sheltering the still small seedlings below.

Although he is skinny, in Jiang Hai's eyes, he is a giant who stands up to the sky and the earth, sheltering everyone in the academy.

Zhan Jiu stretched out his palm and patted Jiang Hai: "Little guy, why didn't you see you crying when you were surrounded and killed, besides, the old man is not dead, at least he will not die before Zhao Tianxiong appears." ”

"That Zhao Tianxiong is not as good as me, his son also beat my apprentice, and now his grandson is less than one-tenth of my apprentice. Haha, I'm eternal... No.. Weak... In... "It's rare to see him so heroic, and he also attaches great importance to Jiang Hai.

"Master, why don't you take the royal bee honey and the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, it will help your current situation!" Jiang Hai wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, such a strong man should not be opposed by a crying face, because he is strong.

"My current body, not to mention the thousand-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, even the medicinal effect of the royal honey can't bear it, it will only hasten my death, and I will simply leave it to useful people. "I really want to give you something but it's gone, so be it, I'll send you down the mountain now, and it's up to you for the rest of the road!"

Without waiting for Jiang Hai to ask how to send it, Zhan Jiu shouted to the side, "Chase the sun!"

"What is it?" Jiang Hai wondered in his heart.

"Coo-goo. There was a chirp, it was a bird, and then a black shadow fell in front of Jiang Hai, like a tall tower blocking Jiang Hai's view. The nose is the first to feel the scent of wings.

Jiang Hai looked up and saw what it was, it turned out to be a Flying Eagle of the Wind, but its body was bigger than the Flying Eagle he had ridden. The feathers are black and thick, and the talons are also huge, like iron hooks.

No, this is no ordinary Swift Eagle, because the eyebrows are white hair, which is the symbol of the king of beasts.

After the flying eagle landed, he lowered his head and rubbed against Zhan Jiu's body affectionately. Zhan Jiu also stretched out his palm to stroke its head. The eagle cooed and enjoyed it.

"It's called Chase the Sun, don't look at him so big, he's just a little guy like you. ”

"Little guy?" Jiang Hai was a little surprised, this image didn't match the small characters at all.

The flying eagle turned his head and stared at Jiang Hai with eagle eyes, and was very dissatisfied with Jiang Hai calling it small, as if he was saying to Jiang Hai: "What are you looking at!"

"Master, how do I feel that it despises me?"

"Haha, the sun is the king of the eagles, and no one dares to call it a little guy except me, and it is a little angry now, and you still apologize to it. Zhan Jiu said with a smile, I don't know if he deliberately set Jiang Hai up, and Jiang Hai got into the trap himself.

"You asked me to apologize to it?" Jiang Hai wondered. "No, you want me to apologize to a bird with a five-foot man?"

Zhan Jiu didn't answer, just an expression of watching a play, Jiang Hai was thinking about his purpose.

I saw that the flying eagle stretched out its right wing and swept Jiang Hai 'gently', Jiang Hai was like a dandelion in the wind without the slightest resistance, and flew out a few feet away. He was already injured and felt so sour.

Jiang Hai struggled to get up, but the flying eagle grinned and cooed, like a person's ridicule. It really made Jiang Hai angry and not light, if it weren't for the fact that his body didn't allow him to rush up and beat it fatly. Not only that, the flying eagle's eyes moved, as if he knew what Jiang Hai was thinking, this was teasing him, "Come on, you have the ability to have a fight with me." ”

For this child-like expression, Jiang Hai was completely convinced, and he believed what Zhan Jiu said.

"Don't be rude every day, he will be your partner in the future!" Zhan Jiu stopped the flying eagle.

But it attracted the question of one person and one eagle, "What (coo)?"

Zhan Jiu had no choice but to explain: "The character of the day is not suitable for staying in this deep mountain, and I don't know how long I can wait." I simply let the two of you go together, and you can go to the rivers and lakes to play. ”

Jiang Hai but it doesn't matter anyway, the flying eagle doesn't have to worry about it anyway, it can hunt by itself, and the warrior can't fly, and having a flying bird mount can add a lot of combat power, even if it is fast.

The flying eagle stopped doing it, looked Jiang Hai up and down with wide eagle eyes, and glanced at the "coo." "That looks like looking down on Jiang Hai.

This makes Jiang Hai very uncomfortable, if it weren't for my current state, I would have beaten you and stripped you of your hair, hum, dare to underestimate me.

Zhan Jiu stroked the Flying Eagle Dao. "Don't look at his weak appearance, in fact, he is very powerful, but he is seriously injured." If he recovers, you are no match for him. ”

"Coo-goo?" As a fourth-order Flying Eagle Royal Clan, it naturally didn't believe that the human being in front of him who didn't even have spiritual energy would be so powerful. The arrogant head looked at Jiang Hai, full of suspicion.

"Didn't he intermittently erupt in the last few days with a few terrifying threats, and he was one of them. So you better follow him, you have to rely on him if you want to advance in the future. Zhan Jiu continued to lobby day by day.

Day by day didn't believe it at all, his wings spread out to cover the sky, and then with a slight pick, Jiang Hai flew into the air. It was really beautiful to look at a great river and mountain, and then it just fell down again for a moment, and was caught by the flying eagle with its head and once again lifted up to the sky. Jiang Hai didn't hurt either, but he couldn't move, he was playing with him like a ball, and the flying eagle also knew that he was protecting his muscles and bones with magic power, but he was just screaming endlessly, which was happy and questioning.

"Little guy, you see how much I like you every day......" Zhan Jiu's sudden sentence made Jiang Hai even more unbearable.
