Chapter 0373 Asking for a Woman is Like Asking for a Sword
Whether it is ordinary people, people in the rivers and lakes, or cultivators, although people's status, status, occupation, and profession are very different, in the final analysis, there are only two kinds, men and women.
Heaven and earth can be divided by yin and yang, not to mention people, so although there is a saying that women do not let the eyebrows, there is never a shortage of pseudo-mothers in the world, but the distinction between men and women is still the most fundamental and primitive standard that separates the entire human race.
Men are born with masculinity, what is masculinity? As the old saying goes, "Rigidity is not angry, and softness is not intimidating." ”
With a strong temperament but not anger, about seven or eight out of ten men in the world can do the first half of the sentence, but if you talk about complete practitioners, it is estimated that less than two or three out of ten.
Men's strength, bravery, self-confidence and many other manifestations can be traced back to the external manifestation of this masculinity.
But on top of this, there are very few people who can still achieve self-restraint and restraint, especially in the struggle for power and the subjugation of women, which can maximize a man's masculinity.
Intrigue and self-deception are not a rare thing in the world, and in the cultivation world, there are even more things that violate the ethics of heaven, earth and man, so for the unexpected but reasonable deeds of Lan Haoshan's father and son, there are not many righteous and moral people who have jumped out to criticize and write.
For the sake of the interests of the family clan, or for the future of personal cultivation, is there still less time for a junior to marry an elder, a sister-in-law to marry an uncle, or even a daughter-in-law to marry her father-in-law?
The marriage between the families of the sect is not a sincere combination of love and will, most of them are alliances of interests, for cultivators, cultivation is the first, as for love, it is not nothing, but it is pitiful.
A few years ago, there was a woman who took turns to double cultivate with her biological brother and father in order to enter the realm, which shocked Kyushu for a while, and public opinion was in an uproar, but when this woman successfully broke the shackles of her own talent and entered the realm of outstanding soul masters, which was impossible to achieve, she only got envy and admiration, as well as coveting the method of double cultivation. Maybe there are those who curse their filthiness, but who can hear it?
In the after-dinner discussion on the streets, everyone has already reached a consensus that this is far from being a traitor to human ethics, and it is destined to be a win-win or even multi-win scheme.
Lan Haoshan father and son don't need to say it, although they don't expect to rely on Lan Phoenix to step on a giant ship like the Lan family again, but it's no problem to get a solid and reliable boat, as the saying goes, the cunning rabbit has three holes, if it is placed in the past for people in the Lan family, even if it is a non-core person like Lan Haoshan, there is no danger that one day the tree will fall and scatter, there is no need to look for any way back.
But now the situation is different, not to mention the immortal beast clan that is eyeing the heart of the dead human race, there is an undercurrent surging in Kyushu alone, and the human race at this time is like a full bowstring, which may collapse at any time, and even if it does not fall into the forces of the eight major families of the imperial dynasty, it is not afraid to say that it will be able to protect itself.
In fact, in the general trend, it is often these giants who bear the brunt of the situation, and may go further, or they may collapse and completely subvert the building, but some small sects and small families with good strength but not how conspicuous can seize the opportunity to grow, they can become a new tide maker when the dust settles on this general trend.
Therefore, Lan Haoshan is equivalent to finding a small boat for himself to stay in addition to the big boat of the Lan family, and there is more space for tossing and turning.
This calculation naturally can't escape the eyes of the Lan family, but Lan Haotian's vision is open-minded, where can he care about the harmless calculation of such an insignificant figure? In his eyes, it is not even a small fight.
What's more, this matter is only good for the Lan family, Lan Haotian was originally vacillating or wanting to be left and right on the issue of the Lan family's position, but now the situation has reached the time when he has to make a choice, otherwise no matter who wins or loses in the future, the Lan family will not have good fruits to eat, at least not the best fruits.
When it comes to the choice, it doesn't seem to be so difficult, in Lan Haotian's opinion, the two sides are not a level at all, especially the cohesion is too far away, although the dynasty is not monolithic, but at least it has a common purpose, and the opponent may not even be completely clear about enemies and friends.
Of course, if the academy ascends to the top and calls it the person who carries the crown, it may be able to set off some storms, but no matter how strong and independent the academy is, it has always been founded by the imperial dynasty and the eight major families. As for the maverick Ning family, the unruly martyr family, in Lan Haotian's opinion, it is more than enough to be a general who charges into battle, but it is still a little worse to be the commander who strategizes.
He coldly watched what Lan Haoshan's father and son did, which was a positive signal, because in the final analysis, it was aimed at Xia Qingyang, and he connived and even contributed to Hou Kuan's grandson-in-law's attack on Lan Luoying and Suna in Northern Xinjiang, which was a kind of statement, and the swaying position from side to side was completely over.
As for the dynasty and his allies, they are even more happy to see it, with Xia Qingyang's temperament, unless he can't get information or can't take a step, he will inevitably appear in Capricorn City.
If Xia Qingyang in the past was still between being able to kill and not being killed, then the current President Xia is bound to be killed.
The ethereal key to open the Nine Heavens, no one can be sure, although there is nowhere to speculate on the powerful means of the predecessors, but it is difficult to believe that the death of a person will affect the general trend of the world, not to mention that this person is involved with the human emperor, and no one dares to guarantee that it will be successfully suppressed in the future if he grows up.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for the coalition headquarters to issue a wanted warrant, because as soon as such a notice comes out, there will be no room for maneuver, which is also the reason why not many people still believe that Xia Qingyang can live, even if the legend of the soul master is on such a wanted warrant, I am afraid that he will not escape death in the end.
Even if Xia Qingyang had the open and secret care of the academy, the support of black and white impermanence, and the protection of the first knife in Kyushu, no one believed that he could escape this catastrophe in the end.
It's not that these characters are not strong enough, it's that the people who want to kill him are too powerful, the dynasty plus several major families and several major sects, just the perfect soul master on the bright side is enough to fight against the characters behind Xia Qingyang, not to mention the legendary soul master who is likely to reach double digits.
In the face of such a lineup, maybe Kyushu No. 1 Dao will not back down, but what about black and white impermanence? Although they shot when Xia Qingyang was being pursued, it was just a move to keep their promises, and they were not facing a situation of endless death, and when it was really time to pay for their lives, they would still resolutely make a move? So how to explain the public marriage for the two disciples a few days ago?
As for the attitude of the academy, it is even more intriguing, if he really defends Xia Qingyang, how can he let Lan Fenghuang go, if the academy doesn't want to let people go, let alone Lan Haoshan's father and son, even Lan Haotian may not be able to forcibly take him away.
These intertwined relationships and the cause and effect of the whole body are the most talked about topics except for who Xia Qingyang will eventually die in and whose hands his women will end up falling in.
Qingyuan Restaurant is the number one restaurant in Kyushu, and the consumption is naturally the number one, so the hall on the second floor is not like the lively scene of saliva flying and red ears in ordinary restaurants, but it is also indispensable for you to communicate and argue with a word, although the enthusiasm is worse, but it is better to have more information and get closer to the truth, after all, those who come here to drink and fart have some identity.
At this time, there were two tables of guests in the hall who had some-for-tat meaning, and their voices became louder and louder, and gradually the other guests in the hall stopped talking and watched the final result of this argument with cold eyes.
"Hmph! I Xu Yue don't know anything about the Spring and Autumn Period, I only know that Xia Qingyang is also a member of the human race that resists the beast clan, and he didn't do anything to stick a knife in the back, and the Fengyun Society even distributed elixirs and elixirs for free, and hired a large number of soul masters to heal the wounded soul masters, and provide food and clothing for the ordinary people who fled, why is such a person wanted to be hunted down? What kind of truth is this? Just because he cut off the prince's life? Who will complain about his own poor ability!"
The middle-aged man in black, who called himself Xu Yue, had a resolute face, a burly figure, and a voice as thick as a bell, landing soundly.
At the same table with him were three men and a woman, all dressed in black, and the woman wore a mask and could not see her face clearly.
There are four people at the table next to him, but there are one man and three women, the man is young, his face is handsome, his eyebrows and eyes are delicate, he is dressed in brocade clothes, his temperament is not bad, and the woman's appearance is medium to high, but it is also for soul masters, if it is placed in ordinary rivers and lakes, it will definitely overshadow the so-called beauties. In addition to the wine and food, there are also four good-looking long swords on the table, the sword has no scabbard, and it is not murderous, but in the eyes of people who know the goods, this is much better than the so-called magic weapons in the rivers and lakes.
The man's demeanor and speech were full of merry energy, which could attract the attention of the opposite sex, just like the three women at the same table as him, and his eyes always fell on the man, with a look of adoration.
The man drank wine as if he was drinking tea, took a sip lightly, and then said slowly: "Since you know that you are a frog at the bottom of a well, why do you have to come out and be embarrassed, besides, no matter how talented a Xia Qingyang is, after all, he is just one person, where can he be involved in the danger of the Spring and Autumn Period, if he wants to kill, he must have the consciousness of being killed, this is a simple truth, not to mention that in the cultivation world, even the world's world." ”
The man let go of the wine glass, reached out and stroked the hilt of the sword, tapped the sword with his index finger, and his voice suddenly turned cold: "In this world, after all, you still have to speak by strength, just like now, if you can beat the sword in my hand, then why lose to me?"
The middle-aged man named Xu Yue smiled casually: "Whether you can beat the sword in your hand is one thing, and the truth is another thing in whose hands it is, how can it be mixed up, if the famous sword villa can only speak with a sword, I am afraid that it will not fall into the eyes of Lan Haoshan's father and son." ”
The man with the sword chuckled and said: "Asking for a beauty and asking for a sword is the same thing, just do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, Your Excellency doesn't have to worry about this matter, but you, you should think about how to send the beauty around you out of the city." ”
Xu Yue raised her eyebrows lightly when she heard this, and picked up the wine glass, the expressions of the three men at the same table were quite calm, but the nervous color in her eyes was fleeting.
