436 Chapter 436 The Way Out
Xiao Yan's expression was solemn and respectful, shocked, but he was not surprised-this is what Emperor Gaozong would do. Greatness and mediocrity are reflected in the time of decision, the choice of life and destiny, the most difficult thing is not to take, but to give, when Gaozong made a "sacrifice" for the emperor's power and life, it achieved the far-reaching of her emperor's way, no one can match.
Gaozong's imperial path is a collection of her ideas and thoughts, not a mighty earthquake of the past and the present, nor a meritorious achievement, but an answer and a solution.
——What kind of human race does the human race have to become, so that it can go better, stronger, and farther in the competition of billions of living beings in the universe.
This is the Tao that the Tang Empire wants to carry, and it is also the purpose of the apocalypse on earth. The apocalypse is not a way, it is a road, it is the way for the human race to get out of the world, and it is a step for the human race to compete for freedom in the universe - this is a step that will be taken sooner or later: if you don't take the initiative, you will be passive, and life and death will not be ruled by people.
Therefore, Gaozong's essence and blood remained in the Earth Temple, the Iliad guarded the Earth Temple all his life, and Li Jiansu, the eldest princess of Chu State, stepped into the end of the world from the Earth Temple, and the star destiny of this generation also came here because of the mission, because the earth is the beginning of everything in the world. The apocalypse also begins with the earth.
"Knowing the cause and seeing the beginning is the first. The second purpose that brought you here......
The Iliad smiled and said, "Here's your way out."
Get out?
Xiao Yan understood, "From here, go to the North West Continent Continent."
Since the predecessor of the Earth Temple was a Heavenly Pillar, even if it was damaged, it was the largest spatial passage in this world.
"So, the king was assassinated......" is indeed fake.
Ilya replied, "It's a plan." Smiled gently, "After all, the Cretan Kingdom is a neutral country, and it is not allowed to assist the alliance envoys of the Tang Dynasty to go to the Xizhou Continent to contact the "heretical" organization wanted by the Xizhou Empire."
This is one of them. Second, the envoys of the four empires were all imprisoned in the royal capital of Crete on suspicion of assassinating the main envoy, and in a short period of time, the balance of the situation between the Cretan island country and the Aegean Sea was maintained.
What if Euroton and the Great Food Empire are suspicious, it doesn't matter whether the king's assassination is true or not, under the current situation, maintaining the balance of the neutral region of the Aegean Sea is the common need of the two empires of the Western Continent, because neither of them can swallow this region alone, and if a war starts, it will be cheap to look at the two Middle-earth empires of Tang and Oghuz. It was only when the Cretan Kingdom pinched the mentality of the two empires in Xizhou that they dared to set up such a case of assassination. -- The game of political forces does not care about the truth, but only focuses on the interests of the situation on its own side.
"This plan is to help you get out of your golden cicada." The Iliad is accurate in his words, and exotic idioms come at hand, "But you will definitely leave Crete and go to the North West continent to complete the mission, this is something that all the forces in the West Continent can predict, and the secret attacks and ambushes will follow after you leave Crete." The Iliad reminded her.
"Yes, the juniors will be careful." Xiao Yan responded.
"Here, your safety is the first priority, and the mission is secondary." The Iliad looked at her with a deep and soft gaze, like a close elder telling his favorite son and nephew, which made Xiao Yan feel subtle: The Iliad is too good to me!
But in fact, she and the Iliad have only met once, and if it makes sense that the other party is out of concern for the important juniors of the Apocalypse camp, but this kind of love exceeds the mission of the camp, then it is ......
Xiao Yan doesn't think that her charm is so great that a congenital predecessor with rich experience, maturity and wisdom falls in love with her at first sight, there is no love in the world for no reason, why does the Iliad have feelings for her?
Xiao Yan bowed in doubt but did not hesitate, and responded with the attitude of being close to the elders of the younger generation: "Your love and instructions, Ah Yan remembers."
"Don't be surprised," the Iliad smiled suddenly, and the High Priest with a breath as deep and distant as the earth blinked briskly and lively, making Xiao Yan stunned, "This is called Aiwu and Wu, you are the most suitable bloodline descendant, and naturally my descendant."
There was too much information in this sentence, and Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment.
"She"? - This is to say Emperor Gaozong!
The Iliad, meaning the human walker chosen for the will of the earth, Emperor Gaozong cast the emperor to create the human world, and the two should become a friendship
A deep friend is not only a personal charm, but also a friend of the same way because of the congruence of the Tao.
However, even if the Iliad "loved the house and the Wu" of His Majesty Gaozong for her, this "love" was too much.
And, is she the bloodline descendant who "most suits" Emperor Gaozong's heart?
And the meaning of these words, her birth seems to be in the expectation of Emperor Gaozong? His Majesty Gaozong knew that such a blood descendant would be born like her?
The more Xiao Yan thought about it, the more confused he became.
"Senpai?"
"Don't ask." The Iliad pointed to his lips, his hands were white and delicate, his skin was as white as jade, and his beautiful and deep facial features were as charming as a kraken, charming and full of mystery, which made Xiao Yan think of the other side of the earth, which was not only heavy and vast, but also unpredictable.
「…… Okay, senior." Xiao Yan blinked slightly, although she wanted to know, but she was not a forced character, she took over the previous topic and said, "Apart from the eldest princess of the Chu Kingdom, has anyone else been here?"
The Iliad took a slow time, "Your master, Mo Bai, came here some time ago."
Xiao Yan opened his eyes suddenly, surprised and a little nervous, "What is the master doing here?" It won't be the same as the eldest princess of Chu State, going to the end of the world, right?
Iliad: "She is a thief of light."
Xiao Yan was dumbfounded: "......"
She suddenly felt that these seniors who seemed to be serious were actually very indecent sometimes.
Xiao Yan felt that she couldn't ask any more, and the Iliad said that she would not be allowed to ask her mother what she was doing here—oh, she knew, it was another secret.
The Iliad's expression was gentle and heavy, and he took an object from his personal space and handed it to her, "It's yours to keep."
Xiao Yan was surprised at a glance, "This is?"
This is a book, with a white cover and a black title, simple, simple and popular, but not simple, very unpopular, the book says: "Truth".
The handwriting is very well written and familiar.
Xiao Yan was momentarily excited, "This is His Majesty Gaozong's manuscript?!" The Iliad actually had Gaozong's manuscript and gave it to her, and no one would let out the manuscript of Emperor Gaowu in the Tang Dynasty!
Xiao Yan's heart was pounding quickly, if the emperor's uncle was here, he would definitely be envious and jealous and eager to take it for her, Li Yuzhen would definitely grab it directly with her here, although Li Zhaohua didn't like to listen to other people's truths, but Gaozong's truth, she would definitely grab it and take a look.
Hey! - Can't open the book?
Xiao Yan then realized that this book was not an ordinary manuscript.
The Iliad looked at him with a smile and said, "This book will only be opened if certain conditions are met."
Xiao Yan only felt that his fingers were as cold as ice and snow, and the coolness had been soaked in his head, and he had a feeling of being so cold that he was clear, seeing that his hand was touching paper, but not paper, he thought to himself, the Iliad would not give her an ordinary book at this time, and guessed: "Law book?"
The Iliad's expression and voice were gentle and heavy, and only the smile on his lips was mysterious, "This is the Book of Truth. Read it with your heart. You read well. There are quite a lot of unreasonable people in the Xizhou Continent, so when you need it, you should reason with them."
Xiao Yan suddenly lowered his eyes, and felt a cool feeling, and always felt that there were many connotations in the words of the Iliad, and "reading by heart" should be a condition for reading to start, so "be reasonable" for unreasonable people...... Thinking of what Emperor Gaozong said, the synchronization of material and spirit, the parallel of culture and martial arts, and the national policy, she suddenly felt that she understood. Clear eyes looked up at the Iliad, and replied earnestly, "I will read it well. Be reasonable."
The Iliad looked at her sideburns with satisfaction, "Good boy."
Xiao Yan lowered her eyebrows and was soft and docile, she was no longer a child, but in front of this human walker who didn't know how many years had passed, she was a child, so there were elders and seniors who gave her gentle shelter. This is what she can get, and again, it has to be paid.
The deep black seabed does not know the time, the fish on the bottom of the sea are strangely shaped, ugly and dangerous, but there is also a more violent intuition of danger, a dangerous zone that fierce creatures avoid, with the ocean undercurrent up a turbulent whirlpool, the magnificent and simple temple in the whirlpool is hidden in the dark, leaving no breath, only the endless sea water surging cover.
Wow!
Wow! The deep blue waves constantly crash against the cliffs, the sea cliffs are as steep as a wall, towering thousands of feet, a narrow beach under the cliffs, close to the steep and deep water, where the waves are steep and rapid, no ships pass by, and because of the desolation and barrenness, few people visit.
This is the northernmost part of the North Western continent, belonging to the northern part of the Euroton Empire, the Duchy of Saplan, also known as the Principality of the Polar Circle, because two-thirds of its territory is within the Arctic Circle, and its northern sea is the Arctic Sea. Xiao Yan was teleported by the Earth Temple to the narrow cliff beach in the Northern Sea, where birds were extinct and rarely visited, and she climbed the cliff, and the cliff was an endless wilderness. She walked in the direction the Iliad had said, her mind searching for possible signs around her, and after about a mile of travel, she found what she was looking for.
Xiao Yan identified the direction of the mark, cleared the traces of the mark, walked two miles and found another mark, cleared, and moved forward, following the third mark, Xiao Yan found the destination.
A crypt.
Such burrows are not uncommon in the wilderness, as the reindeer people will provide temporary shelters for the beasts on the ground, with clothing, food, drinking water, and sometimes they will temporarily keep the wild deer in the temporary burrows and take them with them on the return journey.
The wind blew through the wasteland and into the crypt.
The winds on the Northland Wastelands didn't stop.
A Sapuran woman emerged from the crypt in the wind, two light blonde braids under her red cylindrical high hat, her facial features were not very beautiful, but they were quite attractive, and her ice-blue eyes were as cold and bright as seawater.
Behind her came a wild deer, with beautiful horns and a tall, muscular body, rubbing the calves of dark brown leather boots affectionately. She caressed the deer's back gently with one hand, took the moss from the cloth bag with the other and fed it, then rode on the deer's back, galloping to the end of the moor.
