Chapter 67: A Rare Courage
Although it is not enough to feel sympathy or gratitude for the opponent who abstained and thus pushed himself to the top four, when Duanmu Liufeng announced that he would give up and the Great River Realm would leave Mai Mountain with the situation of withdrawing from the Qingxu Conference, it was not a difficult thing for Yunting to properly express his regret and comfort.
The camp tent at the core of the Great River Realm has been constricted in those luxurious cars, and the young men and women in green clothes look at the strange eyes around them, but there is a period of silence, and shame and unwillingness naturally appear on their faces. Each of them had a desire to make a name for themselves at the Qingxu Conference, but in the end, all they faced was the gloom of silently packing up their clothes and luggage, and silently embarking on their way home at a time when many people were enjoying the glory and victory of the night.
The failure of a cultivator in the Seven Veins Martial Arts is not the failure of the cultivator himself, but also closely related to the honor and disgrace of all the participants in his realm. It's like after this, even if someone faces them with contemptuous and arrogant eyes at the same moment, they don't have the courage and strength to look back and fight back.
The only thing that can make this group of men and women in the Great River Realm feel a little at ease is that at least Ling Yue and Yang Ze and his party are still coming to see off the Yun Ting Realm Lord on behalf of the Yun Ting Realm, not to mention Yang Sanshui, who represents the Yun Ting today. This makes them feel more or less embarrassed.
It's just that everyone doesn't know what kind of mood to look at Yang Ze in front of them, after all, before this, they were more familiar with Heng Muxuan, who knows where Yang Sanshui is guarding the door? It can also allow the unknown unknown juniors to stand on the stage of the prestige and prestige of the Seven Realms and compete for fame and fortune with their own strength.
The women looked carefully at the ordinary looking young man in front of him, of course, because of the blessing of the victory of the Seven Veins Martial Arts, Yang Sanshui, who Yang Ze turned into at this time, seemed to be covered with an aura, no matter where he looked at it, he had something unique. When Yang Ze was silent, his face revealed a vigorous power in his calmness, which was enough to make some women who were usually very quiet excited. And when he was talking and laughing, he seemed to be full of vitality like the condensation of heaven and earth, so that a cheerful woman couldn't help but stare at it. secretly complained about how he didn't find such a person earlier.
And the men looked at him with envy and jealousy, carefully distinguishing the difference between the other party and themselves through the subtleties, but unfortunately in the end they came to the conclusion that this guy was really different, if it weren't for seeing with their own eyes the scene where he defeated Heng Mu Xuan in today's Seven Veins Martial Arts, many people would almost not be able to believe that he had such a terrifying power in his body. But there is no one who does not cast a state of worship and awe on such a power, and this may be the magic of spiritual practice. It is also the place that drives countless delusional people in the world crazy.
Faced with the carriage that had not been opened from beginning to end, the official statement from the Great River Realm was that Duanmu Liufeng was too seriously injured to get out of the carriage to meet guests. Whether it was the truth or the fact that the Great River Realm wanted to save a bit of face in the end, Yang Ze was naturally happy to accept it, but his symbolic surname arched towards the carriage accompanied by Ling Yue, "It's really a pity that I can't fight with Brother Duanmu, I hope you and I can have a chance to learn from each other in the future." ”
After being silent for a moment on the other end of the carriage, a male voice with a slight lack of qi came and said, "Brother Yang's battle today has aroused the will to fight, but unfortunately it backfired, and the loss is too great today, even if he reluctantly fights again, presumably Brother Yang will not be happy to withdraw from the Qingxu Conference, or a last resort decision, I hope Brother Yang understands."
Yang Ze's face was strange, and he smacked his mouth, really thinking that he was a war machine murderer? Take the battle as a meal, and if he doesn't eat a meal, he will be hungry and panicked? But since it is a greeting from the etiquette, and besides, it is not easy to leave at this time, and it must have been carefully considered up and down, and the battle between heaven and man must have been done at this time. Yang Ze only nodded in understanding.
After a pause, Duanmu Liufeng in the carriage said again, "There is Lao Jin said that the young master Ling sent it off, Duanmu is just a guest who is not good at learning and art, when he is favored by the young master, he is flattered and is really Duanmu has another attachment, and he is a stubborn wood in his life, and he is a big river person, he can't serve Yunting, and it has always been a pity." Fortunately, there is Yang Sanshui in Yunting, who can compete for the position of leader in the Yunting realm, Duanmu has no choice but to have limited strength, and he is willing to bow down. I hope that the cloud court will sweep away the square grains of fireflies and bloom the light of the bright moon at this conference!"
Ling Yue looked at the carriage and seemed to think a lot, and sighed, "When I say that I am indeed incompetent and virtuous, how can I make you loyal to me, I don't blame you." You and I are old people in the past, watching Brother Duanmu withdraw from the conference, I am extremely embarrassed, if Brother Duanmu is not used to any time in the territory and wants to change places, the door of my Jingyun City will always be open for you. In any case, today it is said that my Yunting Yang Sanshui can advance to four seats, and it can be regarded as the help of Duanmu Brother Yucheng, if this Qingxu Conference can win the championship by luck, this also has the help of Duanmu Brother. ”
Ling Yue and Duanmu Liufeng are old acquaintances, and it is precisely because of this that Ling Yue will take the initiative to come to see them off.
After a while, a depressed voice came from the car, "The young master is beautiful, Duanmu is in the heart, this is the past year, see you next time, I don't know what year and month, I hope to take care"
Ling Yue secretly sighed, turned sideways, and the car started to start, slowly passing past him, and there was the sound of wheels rolling against the grass in his ears, shaking and shaking.
The two sides said goodbye in such a friendly atmosphere, but the difference was that one side withdrew from the Qingxu Festival, and the carriage was bound to be dimmed in the red light on the way home.
Looking at the back of Duanmu Liufeng's car, Ling Yue's mood was slightly low, and he said to Yang Ze, " The Great River Realm only won one game in this Qingxu Conference, and the next day will be against the enemy Our Yunting After seeing your battle with Heng Muxuan today, the high-level people in the Great River Realm have already predicted the ending, and now they have withdrawn, at least the initiative is in their hands, and it can be said that they have won a game, and their strength is not good, so as to avoid the competition with you, they can still save some face but if they don't know how to advance and retreat, they have to fall into the mud, and it is said that when Duanmu Liufeng fails miserably in your hands, it is when the face of the Great River Realm is gone. It's a pity that the competition in the Seven Realms is cruel, maybe today's order for Duanmu Liufeng to abstain from withdrawing came from the mouth of the high-level of the Great River Realm, but after he returned to the realm, the high-level of the Great River lost face, how could he give him a good ending. I came here today in the hope that I could finally win him to join my Cloud Court, but unfortunately he is so stubborn that he doesn't want to enter my Cloud Court even if he knows that the future is bleak."
"Knowing that the sea of suffering is endless, but I don't want to turn back, is it the shore" Yang Ze looked at the shadows of the people in the carriage getting farther and farther away, and said, "It's for some kind of persistence in my heart." ”
Ling Yue looked at Yang Ze very seriously, and said after a while, "Do you also have this kind of persistence?"
The stars are obscure, and Yang Ze seems to think of a distant country at this moment, a girl named Ji Ling'er, and a lot of moon-like faces in his life so far. So he whispered, "There have been before." ”
"And now?"
"Maybe there still is. But I don't know if there will be any future "in the farthest place of distribution, the world of the sea and the sea, at the end of the food chain, tens of thousands of miles away from the distant Daye, and even more so from the lofty Xituo, and more importantly, although Yang Ze has ambitions, he has to face many huge practical problems after all." The first is the question of time and space, and the second is the question of spiritual practice. There are also countless problems in this world that are difficult to transcend institutional power. Yang Ze didn't think that ordinary people would have the opportunity to set foot in the Xituo Temple for a lifetime. What's more, even if he is a great cultivator, he is still not proud of the many laws and regulations of this world alone. People are born very different from each other because of different backgrounds, living environments, aspects of contact with things, thoughts, etc. It's like being separated from many worlds, and some people seem to meet and say hello every day, but in reality, they only live in their own world. Except for the occasional greeting, there was nothing to do with each other.
In the Kingdom of Daye, Yang Ze was enthusiastic, but his time in Dihai made the calm and deep side of his surname vividly reflected. There is a difference between him and Ji Ling'er in terms of identity, time and space, and the obstruction of the established rules and systems in this world. Even if the geography is not enough to separate them by thousands of miles, these can allow them to travel far and wide. Why did he think that Ji Ling'er, who was far away in the inland Xituo Temple on the mainland, had the same persistence as him? Could it be that he had seen her out of the bath, or was it the residual warmth when he hugged her at that time? That amazing temperature gradually faded away in his mind, and why did he think that the arrogant and indifferent Ji Ling'er could still exist in his heart for a long time?
Not every story has a good outcome. Not to mention Yang Ze, who knows that he is not in a story. He may be able to fight for his survival and go on the path of a rootless cultivator. And Ji Ling'er will still be her high-ranking saint daughter in the Xituo Hall in the eastern land of Guishan, marry according to the order of the temple, and have children. Drama doesn't happen in such a big world. So it's very likely that they don't get along with each other in their own lives.
This is life, which is often not so ups and downs, so under the power of what is called "fate", most people can only choose to bend rather than bend. Plain, calm, ordinary, like a dog, ends his life.
According to the script of fate, in the most rational way, Yang Ze should now be at ease as his own Yang Sanshui, avoid offending people, and develop smoothly in the earth and sea, and avoid the limelight of Shinto Zhai's search.
But in fact, Yang Ze never laid out his life according to the script arranged by fate.
Therefore, he not only refused the invitation of Shinto Zhai Lei Donglai to personally pass on his disciple Li Qiucheng on the night of the Qingxu Conference. In the second advanced battle of the Qingxu Conference, Li Qiucheng's second invitation was rejected again.
Arrogant in Shinto Sai Li begging for acceptance.
This is a courage rarely seen in the whole land and sea.
