"What does General Deng think I'm doing by the lake?"

Deng Jue said: "Your Highness is probably cultivating martial arts, swallowing the qi of heaven and earth at the beginning of the new yang?"

Xia Ji shook his head.

Deng Jue said again: "Your Highness is thinking about how to take over the Imperial Palace, the Imperial City?"

Xia Ji still shook his head.

Deng Jue said again: "Your Highness is thinking about how to solve the current turmoil in the imperial city?"

Xia Ji still shook his head.

Deng Jue said: "The old man doesn't know, and I ask His Highness to give advice." ”

Xia Ji said: "I'm fishing. ”

After speaking, he picked up the teacup in both hands and took another sip of tea.

Deng Jueqi said: "Your Highness obviously has no fishing rod and no bait, how can you fish?"

Xia Ji said with a smile: "There is a strange fish in this world, hidden underwater, unable to find, no matter how good at fishing fishermen can not find them, just because they are hidden very deep, they will run when they see bait, and only if there is no bait, they will be hooked." ”

Deng Jue's face was full of question marks: "The old man is dull, and I don't understand what His Highness means." ”

Xia Ji took out the tiger talisman from his arms and handed over half of it: "Three days later, the old general will lead the imperial army to leave the imperial capital and go to the northern camp for training. ”

Deng Jue took the tiger talisman inexplicably, his face was dazed, he didn't understand what His Highness meant.

Xia Ji took a sip of tea, and then changed the topic and said, "I want to ask General Deng something." ”

"Your Highness, please speak. ”

"The strength in this world, which is stronger or weaker, can there be a reference or a realm?"

Deng Jue was stunned, His Royal Highness had clearly demonstrated his strength at the peak of the martial artist in the battle a few days ago, but he didn't know this?

So, he sorted out his thoughts, sorted out the relevant information he had obtained for most of his life, and slowly spoke.

"In this world, if you practice external or internal skills, even if you enter the threshold of a martial artist, plus a few crop styles, and go out, you can be called a Jianghu person.

However, unless others know what exercises you have practiced and how many levels you have practiced, no one will know your position, and at this time you need to make a name for yourself in the rivers and lakes, which is not only to confirm what you have learned, but also to confirm your position in the rivers and lakes.

There are heaven lists, earth lists, and people lists on the rivers and lakes.

The warriors on the list are all recognized elites;

The ground list is a first-class master;

On the heavenly list are super-first-class masters.

If you want to prove your strength, you must play the list, and those who are not on the list can challenge the list, and if you win, you will be replaced;

The top 100 of the strong people can challenge the land list;

However, the land list challenges the heavenly list, and the heavenly list challenges the heavenly list, but it needs to be posted in advance and widely advertised, and then it can be carried out.

But there is another kind of person above the three lists of heaven, earth and man,

They don't make the list,

Just because they have reached the pinnacle of martial arts, or their bodies have given birth to extraordinary postures, such as walking like ordinary people, but if their bodies shake, they will become a three-headed and six-armed Shura, or even a sword with five fingers, and white hair into a python, and so on, in short, it is unimaginable,

Or resonate with the space of heaven and earth, such as the black Dharma of His Royal Highness,

Such people cannot judge which of them is strong and which is weak,

But unless such a person is hidden, once he is revealed to the world, he will definitely cause a sensation.

After doing a few great things, it will be called a legend,

If His Highness's fame spreads beyond the Northlands, then it is a legend. ”

Xia Ji tasted it carefully, his internal strength has Jiuyang True Qi, his external strength has eighteen Zhen Prison Strength, the body of the King of Immovable Ming, and even the spirit of the Three Buddhas, each of which can already produce the Faxiang, so he is already standing at the peak?

But this did not make him happy, but asked, "Does the general know how many levels of exercises are at most?"

Deng Jue said: "Nine is the extreme number, and the intention of all exercises stops at nine, so it is the ninth layer. ”

Xia Ji asked, "Is there a tenth layer?"

Deng Jue: "Maybe it's because the old man doesn't have enough experience, but the tenth layer is unheard of." ”

Xia Ji was silent for a moment, and then said, "Except for the martial artists, what about the other powers?"

Deng Jue took a sip of tea, moistened his throat, and continued to speak.

"The nine layers are extraordinary, the meaning of the law, the fame is legendary, and the limit of the individual stops here.

After that, as far as the old man knew, it was the Martial Dao Xuan Array, magic weapons, species, and so on.

There are some people in this world who have mastered the mysterious Xuan Array, they are called the God of War, such people have a powerful formation, they can make thousands, tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of people turn the power into one, and cut out a terrifying blow, in front of such a force, no matter who will perish, but the Xuan Array system is very mysterious, there are not many people who have mastered it, the old man only saw it once in his early years, and then he was shocked by the heavens, and wanted to search around, but there was no way to find it, so he had to go away.

As for magic weapons, this is said to be an object that can only be refined by people with great wisdom, but most of them are remnants of ancient wars, or passed down from ancestors, and there is also a saying that the power of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism can refine magic weapons, but the old man has not seen them, these magic weapons often exceed the scope of martial arts, and can play a decisive role in the battle.

As for the species, His Highness the Seven should have also seen it, such as the Frost Giant, an abnormal existence, as long as they grow up, they can be stronger than most martial artists who are diligent and penance, and their bloodline is comparable to the top martial arts of human penance. And according to the legend, there are many strange beings, some of which only need to grow up, and humans cannot defeat them no matter what. ”

Xia Ji asked, "What about the Divine Soldier Demon Blade?"

Deng Jue said: "There are spiritual germs hidden in the divine weapon demon blade, but almost all spiritual germs will not awaken, they will wait for the new master again and again for a long time, but again and again to hinder the master, and finally disappear in the rivers and lakes.

These magic blades can give the holder some power, but they will also interfere with the holder's thinking, if it really awakens, the old man doesn't know, after all, he has never heard of it, but he thinks that it will become a bigger arm for the holder, and it may even exceed the magic weapon, but if the holder can't control it, I'm afraid it will also die of stupidity. ”

Xia Ji nodded, this information was alone in the deep palace in the past, and he had never obtained it, but today he was told by such an old general from the bottom of his heart, which can be regarded as having an understanding of this world, and at the same time an understanding of his own power positioning, although he knew that his strength was at the peak of this level, he couldn't be happy.

Still is... Inadequate!

Perhaps not even the tip of the iceberg of the world.

Not only was he not complacent, but he was even wary.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while.

Deng Jue chose to retire.

After returning to the mansion, Deng Jue asked his eldest son Deng Gongjiu to go to the barracks to rectify the soldiers, and he paced back and forth in the courtyard, echoing in his mind what His Royal Highness had said, but he couldn't figure out the meaning clearly.

Suddenly, he saw a purple-clothed girl dancing with a knife, the knife wind was magnificent, and there was already a lot of strength between the slashes, and after the knife was settled, it would make a trembling sound, and it was obvious that she had already cultivated her internal strength.

The girl in purple saw Deng Jue stop practicing, ran over and shouted affectionately: "Grandpa." ”

Deng Jue looked at the girl's eyes, and directly asked the doubts in his heart: "Empty cicada, do you know what strange fish are in this world, they will run when they see bait, and they will only be hooked if they have no bait?"

This beautiful girl in purple is Deng Jue's granddaughter Deng Kongchan, who is only sixteen now, and when she heard her grandfather ask such a strange question, she couldn't help but be stunned and shook her head blankly.

Deng Jue couldn't help laughing, His Royal Highness is seventeen years old after all, so Zen machine, how can the empty cicada know that he is only sixteen?

So he didn't ask her anymore, but said directly: "Three days later, your father and I will go to the northern camp to train the army, you don't want to cause trouble at home, remember to practice my Deng family's sword and heart methods diligently." ”

"Yes, Cicada knows. ”

The girl in purple said and ran away to practice again.

Deng Jue looked at her back, thought for a while, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, and he probably found the answer in his heart.

"There is a strange fish in this world, hidden underwater, impossible to find, no matter how good at fishing fishermen can't find them, just because they hide very deeply, and they run away when they see bait..."Deng Jue muttered, "Does Your Highness think that the imperial capital is hiding many invisible enemies, and these enemies are about to bring chaos? But His Highness doesn't know who these people are, and there is nowhere to use it. ”

He paced back and forth, muttering to himself: "That's why His Highness said, 'Only if there is no bait, will you take the bait', and His Highness let himself lead the army out of the imperial capital, just so that he can lure out those people as soon as possible, and then catch them all?"

It's just that why is His Highness so anxious? Isn't it best to keep the old man in the imperial capital to stabilize the situation?

As long as the old man is there, even some clowns who jump off the beam also need to weigh the more than 20,000 elite soldiers in the old man's hands.

This is not reasonable again. ”

Deng Jue thought for a while, and suddenly faintly understood, Your Highness... He wants to empty all the hidden enemies in the imperial city before the real foreign enemy comes.

So... Who is this foreign enemy?

The word "Son of Heaven" instinctively flashed in Deng Jue's mind.

His breath suddenly became short...
