Chapter 864: See the Holy Maiden Again

readx;? Shangguan Xiu used his death to evaluate Wu Peng's suicide, and he could hate himself. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He expected that Xin Jiyao would kill him in the end, in other people's land, Xin Jiyao took advantage of the right time and place, she wanted to attack him, it was difficult for him to resist, but he still had to take this risk, because it was worth it, because there was no better reason to transfer a million garrisons to the border between the two countries.

Transferring a million troops to the border of Ningjun is the key to this battle, this army is not only responsible for attacking Ningnan itself, it also has a more important role, cutting off the retreat of the Ningnan army stationed in Duji, whether the million Ningnan army can be blocked in Duji's territory, directly determines the victory or defeat of the two countries.

For subduing Ningnan's lost territory, Shangguan Xiu is almost crazy, in his mind, there is nothing more important than this, as long as he can succeed, no matter what kind of sacrifice he makes, it is worth it.

But for Tang Ling, subduing the lost land in Ningnan is not the most important thing, he can live happily with his beloved for a long time, and he can grow old with his son by the hand, that is the most important thing.

That's what makes men and women different. No matter how humble a man is, he always has a sword hidden in his heart, as long as there is an opportunity, the sword will be unsheathed, and the blade of the sword refers to the world.

And no matter how high a woman's status is, even if she becomes the supreme emperor, what she pursues is happiness and stability in the end. There is no one right or wrong, it's animal instinct.

Hearing Shangguan Xiu's words, Tang Ling was like a fried kitten, her eyes shot an aggressive light, she grabbed Shangguan Xiu's hand tightly, and said: "I don't want you to go to Ningnan, I don't want you to die, I don't want to do anything to create a Mingjun, I just want you to be by my side!"

"For hundreds of years, there have been so many talents in the Feng Kingdom, and there have been so many immortal monarchs, all of whom have failed to recover Ningnan, why do you have to let me carry this important task, and let me complete it? "As long as you're by my side!

Shangguan Xiu's heart flowed with a warm current, he held Tang Ling's hand instead, and said: "Xiang'er, if there is no opportunity, I will not force it, but now that the opportunity has come, if I don't fight for it, I won't be able to pass my own level." ”

"Now that Ningnan has forcibly occupied Duki, no one knows whether the people of Ningnan can gain a foothold in Duji, but once the people of Ningnan gain a firm foothold in Duki, in the future, Ningnan's national strength will increase greatly. In 100 years, we may not be able to see anything, but in 100 years, Ningnan's strength will far surpass that of our country, and what will we leave to future generations? It will be the bane of the country's demise! You and I do not seek to leave a name in history, but at least we must leave a glimmer of life for future generations, not a catastrophe. ”

Tang Ling's little hand subconsciously clenched.

Shangguan Xiu rubbed her fragrant shoulders lightly, and said with a relaxed face: "What's more, I'm not a person who sits still, even in Ningnan, even if Xin Jiyao wants to kill me, it's not so easy, if I can't beat it, I can also run!"

Tang Ling understood that in Ningnan's territory and in Ningnan's national capital, once Xin Jiyao decided to attack Shangguan Xiu, he would never give him another chance to escape.

She was about to speak, Shangguan Xiu suddenly remembered something, and said: "Before visiting Ningnan, I will go to Shenchi first, if I can bring a few elders of Shenchi to accompany me, this trip to Ningnan will be foolproof." ”

Tang Ling's eyes lit up suddenly, and he asked with concern, "Will Elder Shenchi be willing to go to Ningnan with you?"

Shangguan Xiu Zhengse said: "In this national war, Shenchi must be involved, without Shenchi, our army can't restrain the Xuanling Palace in Ningnan, and this battle can't be won." In any case, I have to convince the elders of the Divine Pond. ”

He had to persuade the elders of Shenchi to go to battle with the army to balance the Xuanling Palace, as for whether he could persuade the elders of Shenchi to accompany him to visit Ningnan, it was not within his consideration, the reason why he said that just now was just to make Tang Ling feel at ease.

Tang Ling sighed and said, "If I can have Elder Shenchi with you, I will be much more relieved." ”

Shangguan Xiu looked at her softly, but smiled silently.

The matter of his visit to Ningnan was thus decided, and the envoy of Ningnan completed his mission and returned to China happily.

The next day, Shangguan Xiu set off for Shenchi, and only Xiao Jue and Wu Yufei were with him. After arriving at the Divine Pool, Shangguan Xiu did not go to the Elders' House of the Divine Pool, but went directly to the temple to find the Holy Maiden.

Shangguan Xiu understood that it was too difficult for him to persuade those elders who hung high and did not care about the world, and he could only succeed if he persuaded the holy woman first, and then the holy woman persuaded the elders.

Arriving at the foot of the holy mountain, Shangguan Xiu raised his eyes to look at the temple built on the top of the mountain, towering into the sky, took a deep breath, and stepped forward.

The guards at the foot of the mountain stepped forward, they all knew Shangguan Xiu, and they all arched their hands and said, "Lord Shangguan!"

Shangguan Xiu returned the salute and said with a smile: "I want to see the saint." ”

"Please wait here, Lord Shangguan, and report on the mountain!" one of the guards nodded to Shangguan Xiu, and then walked up the mountain. After about two quarters of an hour, the guard descended the mountain, accompanied by a maid dressed in white.

The maid's action down the mountain is very elegant, the white clothes are fluttering, and the lotus steps are like fairies falling from the sky, seemingly unhurried, but the speed is extremely fast, and one step out, you have to step through several steps.

"Miss Moyun, we're meeting again. ”

Waiting for the white-clothed maid to walk to the foot of the mountain, Shangguan Xiu took the initiative to come forward to say hello. Mo Yun only glanced at him lightly, hummed softly, didn't say anything more, turned around and walked towards the mountain.

Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and whispered to the guards on the left and right: "Old girl, your temper is a little weird. ”

Cough, cough, cough! The guards present coughed, hung their heads one after another, and their faces turned red.

Shangguan Xiu turned around and explained, "Wait for me here." After speaking, the mind moved freely, a light wind blew around him, Shangguan Xiu stepped out, and crossed ten steps, it seemed that he was walking, but in fact the person was floating close to the ground.

He took five steps, and the man had caught up with the ink cloud. Mo Yun walked in front without looking back, and asked in an indifferent tone, "Am I old?"

"Calculating is also a sign of a strange temper. Shangguan Xiu put one hand behind his back, and the other hand shook slightly, and with a bang, the folding fan opened, and he only fanned it lightly, and his body was like a fallen leaf, floating to Mo Yun's side, walking side by side with her.

"......" Mo Yun was speechless. Now whatever she says, it seems to have become a sign of a strange temper.

When she walked all the way to the holy pool and waited for Shangguan Xiu to change her clothes and clean herself, she said expressionlessly: "Lord Shangguan's nature has always been the same and has never changed. ”

"Oh?" Shangguan Xiu took off his coat and smiled at Mo Yun.

Mo Yun also smiled at him and said softly, "It's as annoying as ever. After speaking, the little face immediately turned cold, turned around and walked away.

Shangguan Xiu shrugged his shoulders and muttered, "I'll just say, the old girl's temper is weird......"

Before he finished speaking, Mo Yun waved his hand back without replying, and a stone shot out of her hand, impartial, and fell into the pool water, with a bang, a big splash, and at the same time, Shangguan Xiu's body was splashed.

He snorted and added, "Be careful." ”

"......" Mo Yun walked faster, probably because he was afraid that if he listened to it again, he would not be able to control the urge to strangle him.

Temple.

Shangguan Xiu, who had been cleaned, walked into the temple refreshed, looked up, and saw the holy woman standing in the center of the main hall.

The main hall of the temple was spacious and magnificent, and the holy woman stood alone in it, not at all lonely, as if she had become one with the whole hall.

Holy. Every time he sees the saint, Shangguan Xiu will feel this way. He stepped forward, bowed, and said, "Holy Maiden." ”

"Should I call you Lord or Your Highness now. The saint asked with a smile.

Shangguan Xiu smiled and said, "As long as the saint likes it, she can call it anything." ”

"Shangguan Xiu. The saint called softly.

"In. Shangguan Xiu nodded in response.

"You're ready to go to war again. The saint's words were questioning, but her tone was affirmative.

"Yes!" Shangguan Xiu said: "This battle is to crusade against Ningnan and regain lost territory. ”

The saint asked, "Are you here to ask for help from the gods?"

"Yes. ”

"Are you so sure that Xuanling Palace will participate in the war?" Shangguan Xiu knew very well the rules of Shenchi, Shenchi would never interfere in the national war, since he came to Shenchi to help, he definitely did not let Shenchi help the Feng army fight the national war, there was only one possibility, that is, let Shenchi balance Xuanling Palace.

"Xuanling Palace will not watch Ningnan perish. ”

The Holy Maiden looked at him for a long time, sneered, and said, "Do you think that this battle will definitely be won, and it will be the last battle between the two countries?"

"Isn't it?" Shangguan Xiu asked rhetorically, "With the wisdom of the Holy Maiden, do you think our army will lose this battle?"

"All I know is that if you decide this is the last battle, it will be a terrible battle. The saint said slowly: "The creed of the Divine Pond abstains from killing, why should I help you?"

"The saint owes me a favor. ”

"Oh?" said the saint looking at him amusedly.

"During the war with Besa, I took the saint to Besa, but in the end the saint left without saying goodbye, and I went to find someone, but I could not find the trace of the saint, which is rude to me, and owes me an explanation, and also owes me a favor. ”

"Yellow-mouthed child, full of nonsense. The saint glanced at Shangguan Xiu with a smile. She didn't stay in the wind camp for a long time, most of the time she traveled around in Beisa, how could the wind army still have extra manpower to search for her everywhere? The only thing he was right about was that she did not say goodbye, and it was indeed rude.
