Chapter 42: The Pit in the Sword House

The strange smile flashed and disappeared. The astonishment kept appearing in the eyes of this great grandmaster, and it stands to reason that he is a dignified grandmaster. I don't know how many earth-shattering events I have experienced in this life. Even if Dongshan overturned, he was afraid that he would not blink his eyelids, but the shock was so clear.

Fan Xian kept looking at the eyes of the sword, so he accurately grasped the inner thoughts of this big man, and secretly smiled bitterly. I couldn't help but feel a little proud.

The reason why he kept looking at Sigu Jiandi's eyes was because Sigu Jian had no place to look at his body at this time.

This small old man, sitting in a wheelchair. The left half of his face shattered and sank deep. The left arm was also broken, and the sleeve was empty and swayed in the wind, although the wide linen clothes covered his body, and I don't know what the injuries inside were. But it's also very thrilling to think about.

This is the first time Fan Xian has seen Sigu Jian in his life, and he has seen this most powerful person in the world. The Lord of the Earth Sword Saint who has guarded Dongyi City for decades.

In his imagination, this is an extremely sword-land grandmaster-level figure. Even if it's not like a fairy. At least a little bit of dustiness. However, I didn't expect it. The Sigu Sword that appeared in front of his eyes turned out to be like this.

It was very miserable and pitiful, only those eyes were full of innate arrogance and unyielding sword intent, so Fan Xian had no choice but to stare at his eyes. For fear of being rude.

At this time, the atmosphere in the room was delicate. Facing the mythical characters, Fan Xian should have been more excited, but he couldn't get excited anyway, maybe because he knew that the other party would die in a few days, maybe because he had lived with Uncle Wuzhu since he was a child, or maybe because his parents were super cows no less than the great grandmaster.

The sword boy pushed the wheelchair into the morning light. The faint light shone the terrifying wound on Si Gu Jian's face clearly, and the sword boy retreated very peacefully, but Si Gu Jian took the lead in breaking the silence, and after staring at Fan Xian for a long time, he sighed in a hoarse voice: "Admire." Admire. ”

This great master has been known as an idiot since he was a child, and after the completion of his sword, he has crossed the heavens and the earth. There was never any thought of bending down. Piercing the sky. It's not arrogant, it's on Dadong Mountain. was brutally injured by Emperor Qing and Ye Liuyun, and he was still so stubborn. Laugh and cry as much as you want. Refuses to bow their heads.

He is the strongest person in the world, and he has to be admired by someone. It's basically an impossible thing. So when he admired Fan Xian. Fan Xian's face couldn't help but turn red. I'm a little embarrassed.

Fan Xian knew what this admiration was talking about. The other party did not admire Emperor Qing. I don't admire Ye Liuyun, but I admire myself. Naturally, it was because of the voices that came from the ground last night.

"You're welcome. You're welcome. He coughed, hiding his embarrassment. Half-turned.

The morning light fell. The bodies of both the old and the young were enveloped in it. Fan Xian naturally and habitually stood next to the wheelchair, slightly frowning and feeling this scene, and a strange feeling surged in his heart.

The poor short and thin wounded man on the chair is the legendary domineering. A murderous sword?

The sunlight penetrates the eyebrows of the sword. It glowed white, as if the eyebrows had suddenly turned white. Fan stared at the place in a daze. looked at the other party's face was still intact. Suddenly, he found that the age of this great master was not as old as he thought.

Three years ago. When Fan Xian fled from the Dadong Mountains, only Ye Liuyun was on the boat alone, whether it was a bitter lotus or a Sigu sword. He didn't touch it, of course. If he had encountered it at that time, he was afraid that he would not be able to escape back to Kyoto later, so he did not know. What happened on the mountain at that time. I didn't see a sword light and cold Duyu Peak. Slay the Tiger Guard. The blood-strewn mountain trail was a terrible scene.

But this did not affect his faint fear of the Sigu Sword, because he knew that this great master was really a little crazy, and those who could kill a hundred Tiger Guards could naturally kill themselves easily.

Fan Xian had never met Si Gu Jian before, but he was no stranger to this great grandmaster at all. Because since he entered Kyoto, Dongyi City Sword House has become the Supervision Yuan, the eldest princess and even the Qingguo Imperial Court and His Majesty, the favorite role to carry the black pot, anyway, this great master is not out of the Sword House. had to be splashed with dirty water by the shameless people of Qingguo.

Because of the eldest princess's geographical reasons. Fan Xian led the Supervision Institute of the Army and the Sword House of Dongyi City. In those years, there was a fight to the death, starting with the Battle of Bullpen Street, and each other was the enemy of each other. Each has its own means. It was only in the end that Fan Xian went down to Jiangnan and used his shadow to exert his strength, so that Yun Zhilan was driven back.

But Fan Xian knew it very well. This is because Si Gu Jian has always disdained to deal with his own relationships. If the other party really wanted to kill him, maybe he would have died many years ago.

And after that. Fan Xian succeeded in inheriting Neiku, and Si Gu Jian behaved like a mature politician at this moment rather than an idiot with no super force. Si Gu Jian let go of his past grievances. sent the most beloved disciple Wang Shisanlang. expressed his attitude to Fan Xian.

So Fan Xian is very familiar with the Sigu Sword. Or rather, he thought he was familiar with the Sigu Sword, but he met today. only to find out. It turns out that the other party is still a stranger to him, an unfathomable. Stranger with no temperament.

There seemed to be an invisible pressure emanating from the injured person in the wheelchair. It made Fan Xian a little difficult to breathe.

"I didn't kill you back then, not because I looked down on you. Si Gu Jian suddenly hissed and sneered, "The reason why I didn't kill you is very simple. It's just that you don't know about it. ”

As soon as Si Gu Jian spoke, the sense of oppression that permeated the court was a little weaker. Fan Xian's heart was relieved, and he hurriedly said, "Please advise."

"Your mother's surname is Ye, isn't the reason very clear?" Si Gu Jian's brows furrowed, as if he didn't expect Fan Xian to be so stupid. He cursed with some annoyance.

Fan Xian shrugged, and really couldn't understand this reason. But today I went deep into the sword house. It's not to catch up with the sword. Rather, I want to talk about the future of Dongyi City and the future of the world.

Qualified to talk about the world's figures. It has gradually become less, and the bitter lotus is dead. Ye Liuyun really escaped, after the incident in Dadong Mountain, many people died, and in today's Dijian Lu, there are Emperor of Northern Qi, Fan Xian, and Sigu Jian, they are all qualified to sit and talk about the world.

"I'm sure you've read the plan I asked Thirteen Lang to bring back. ”

The first book is a very new noun. In the fourth year of Qingli. Fan Xian once asked Fan Sizhen to write a copy of the first drawing book, which was used to open a bookstore, and then this year he also wrote a copy himself and gave it to Sigu Jian, trying to convince this great master with a strange temperament. Accept one's own offer.

"I didn't look at it. Si Gu Jian said indifferently.

As soon as this statement came out. Fan Xian's heart was hit hard. I don't know what the other party thinks in his heart, I worked hard to draw up the rules, I thought I could at least impress the other party. But if the other party doesn't even look at it, where does this start?

"Nanqing's mission hasn't arrived yet. What are you in a hurry?" Si Gu Jian looked at him mockingly

Fan Xian was silent, and suddenly said, "Last year in the letter. I have feasted on you. I am sure that I will be able to control the Northern Qi. If you trust me, I can also preserve the independence of Dongyi City to the greatest extent. ”

The sword looked at him quietly. The twisted and sunken cheeks lined the calm eyes, which looked extraordinarily quiet, but there was a chilling madness in the quiet.

"That kid is actually a woman, I really didn't expect it. That's why I said earlier that I admire you. But if you say, that's it. You're going to convince me. You have the ability to control the whole picture. It seems to be a little worse. Looking around, the sword snorted. Mockingly: "Your father is not an ordinary person, if you can't satisfy him." How did you fool the past?"

Emperor Qing's request was naturally to swallow Dongyi City into the territory. Si Gu Jian also knew that after his death. Dongyi City and the surrounding small vassal states. I can no longer protect myself, I can only wait for the fate of being swallowed, but now that Beiqi has come out, I will be born. Dongyi City is in the same vein, of course, it has to wait for the price. I want to be able to save myself as much as possible.

These in themselves are two completely different directions. And to satisfy the emperor Lao Tzu. I also have to look around and be satisfied, for Fan Xian. It's almost an intractable task, as it is called. Obeying my brother's love and losing my sister-in-law's wishes, the girls in the building are left and right. It's hard to play to such a level.

Now the key is still to look at the sword, as long as he nods, everything is easy to say. Fan Xian thought so in his heart. Naturally, he pushed his wheelchair and began to walk on the loess road around the sword mound, and began to bask in the sun as he looked around with a serious injury.

Si Gu Jian closed his eyes. Enjoying the sun shining on his body, he suddenly said, "You are quite familiar with pushing a wheelchair backwards." Better than those boys. Or you'll stay and take care of me for a few months?"

Fan Xian smiled and responded, "It's okay to take care of you for a few months. Just those things. You have to see, tens of millions of people in Dongyi City are looking at you and waiting for you. You have to have some ideas. ”

"As for pushing wheelchairs, I'm used to pushing them in Kyoto. ”

"Oh. Come to think of it, the old black dog's leg had long since been broken. Si Gu Jian suddenly sighed and said, "In the past twenty years, I have made the biggest mistake. In fact, I just got the wrong goal, and I have always regarded your emperor as the biggest target. But I didn't think about killing Chen Pingping at the beginning. Maybe your emperor won't be so arrogant right now. ”

There is a very strong confidence hidden in the plain words. It seems to be a terrifying figure like the president of the Supervisory Yuan. Looking around, the sword is like being able to kill.

For some reason, the sea breeze around the sword mound was slight. As the sword intent in the words of the four swords became difficult to move, Fan Xian's heart was stabbed fiercely, and his face turned pale and pale, and only then did he feel the true realm of the great grandmaster. As soon as he thought and moved, the surrounding environment also gave rise to induction, and the killing intent was great. Difficult to bear.

His hands pressed the back of the wheelchair, forcibly propped up. With great difficulty, he said, "Take your cultivation as a whole." If you concentrate on killing Dean Chen. Naturally, he can't live long, but the problem is, if you kill him, Ye Liuyun will naturally come to kill your people in Dongyi City. ”

He breathed hard for a moment and then said slowly: "Even if all the people in your family are dead, you still have apprentices, and there is still the City Lord's Mansion in Dongyi City...... Juggernaut-sama. As His Majesty said, a monster like the Great Grandmaster should not exist in the world in the first place. Now that you have appeared. Then you can't make a random move, it's just a dead thing to maintain balance. ”

"Hmm. Reasonable. Si Gu Jian said with his head down.

Fan Xian continued to smile and said: "Sometimes I feel very happy for the people of the world, whether it is Master Kuhe, or you always have something tied to the earth in your heart, such as Northern Qi, such as Dongyi City, if you are really an idiot who acts according to your preferences." But it also has the power of a great master. I'm afraid that the whole world will be in chaos. ”

"Of course. He said in an accentuated tone, "If that's the case." I'm not delusional about convincing you anything. ”

Si Gu Jian was silent for a long time. Suddenly, he said, "Last night, you shocked me a lot. It turns out that your so-called hole cards. It's on that little emperor's land, I admit it. You have the right to negotiate with me. I also admit that I do care about the future of Dongyi City...... Perhaps it was a habit, a habit to take with me even if I died, and I was used to protecting the people of this city. ”

He looked back. He said in a hoarse voice, "So as long as you satisfy me, I will also satisfy you." ”

"Nominally surrendered, garrison. Unchanged for fifty years. Fan Xiandi's heart beat faster, looked into his eyes, and threw out a few words unusually quickly. These words have been said to Wang Shisanlang when he was in Qingzhou. Today I just repeated it in front of the sword.

"Garrison?" Si Gu Jian laughed, the laughter was extremely sharp, and Fan Xian's eyes hurt sharply, and how to use true qi to protect his body. None of them can be resisted.

His face turned pale and he snorted. He scolded: "You won't kill me, what do you mean by torturing me like this?"

Si Gu Jian couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this. Shrugged his shoulders and said, "Just habitually laughing twice." What does it have to do with torture?"

"The Emperor of Northern Qi is actually a woman, tsk. Si Gu Jian didn't seem to have listened to Fan Xian's proposal at all. Still immersed in this fact, it seems that he is very happy before he dies. Finally learned a secret.

Fan Xian finally found that this great grandmaster had a strange temperament, and in an instant, he thought that Zhan Doudou was still sleeping in the room at this time, and thought that this great grandmaster could not have listened to the foot of the wall all night last night, and his face became strange.

He subconsciously looked around at the bottom of his eyes. Is there a deep dark circle under the eyes. There are no corns, just at this time. Si Gu Jian also looked over, looking at Fan Xian's eyes with blue circles on the ground. frowned and said: "Even if it is a female emperor, she only gets it once in a few years, so she has to be more leisurely." If you want to indulge in lust and die, I want to promise you, but I can't. ”

As soon as this remark came out. Fan Xian was embarrassed. But it was a flash of inspiration, and when he heard the last sentence clearly, his lips trembled slightly, and he didn't know how to answer.

The morning light is growing. The shadow of the wheelchair was reflected in the sword mound, as if it was worn on those countless swords, and it looked pitiful. Fan Xian quietly looked at the shadow of the place, and suddenly thought that when he entered the Sword Mansion, he was chased and killed by Wolf Tao and Yun Zhilan, and he had seen a familiar figure behind the second gate.

At that time, he even thought that the man was coming, but at this time, he looked at the shadow in the sword mound. Only then did I realize that my guess had gone wrong. At that time, it was Si Gu Jian himself who appeared behind the second gate, but he didn't expect him to feel so similar to Chen Pingping in a wheelchair.

As if guessing what he was thinking, Si Gu Jian said coldly: "Under my nose." No one can touch you. ”

However, Fan Xian didn't have the slightest sense of safety, quietly looked at the sword around him, quickly analyzed it in his heart, and suddenly said: "No one can, it doesn't mean that no one dare." Yun Zhilan dared to put Thirteen Lang under house arrest, dared to make a private deal with Qi Ren, and dared to hunt me down in front of you......"

His heart was already shocked. Although Si Gu Jian lightly expelled Yun Zhilan and Wolf Tao from the house. Shocked the audience, but with his understanding of the Great Grandmaster realm, the Sigu Sword didn't need to appear behind the Second Gate. That shot at that time only proved one thing of the truth. Sigu Sword is now strong. It's not as good as it was in its heyday.

"I can't get out of the house right now, because no one dares to push me away. Looking around at the sword ground, his eyes became a little weird, and he once again guessed the idea in Fan Xian's heart. "Your father and Ye Liuyun hurt me too badly. Originally, I was a long-overdue mortal, and I was lucky enough to survive until now, but I couldn't move anymore, so I had to sit in this damn wheelchair. Even if I wanted to kill someone, I couldn't run...... Well. Those who want to be killed by me. As long as you stay away from me, there's nothing I can do. ”

A hint of gloom suddenly flashed in Fan Xiandi's heart, such a great grandmaster had ended up in such a field. Self-styled in the sword house is not allowed to come out.

"Of course. No one dared to give it a try. Si Gu Jian closed his eyes and said, "You just need to be by my side." It's still safe. ”

Fan Xian suddenly said, "How many days can you live?"

Si Gu Jian opened his eyes suddenly. Seemingly enraged by this bold question, his gaze pierced Fan Xiandi's heart like a heavenly sword.

Fan Xian's eyes tingled. Quickly closed his eyes.

After a long time. Looking around at the sword, he said, "There are about a hundred days left. ”

Fan Xian opened his eyes, and he didn't dare to look at this uncontrollable grandmaster anymore.

Looking at the deep pit under his feet, looking at the sword branches swaying in the wind in the pit, listening to the crisp sound of nails, I don't know what I was thinking. Maybe I'm thinking about the countless gorgeous fragments in this life. Countless times out of the sword. Numerous victories. Think of those who died under their own swords. His expression gradually darkened.

He has only been defeated once in his life, on the top of Dadong Mountain. And yet the defeat was so complete. So much so that now he has to have such a humiliating conversation with a junior next to this sword pit.

"I used to rely on the sword in my hand. It controls Dongyi City and countless small princes and kingdoms around it. Si Gu Jian suddenly said indifferently: "But in the last period of my life, I found out that I could control it." There is still only this grass hut and this pit. ”

Fan Xian bowed his head and bowed deeply, knowing that the other party had finally made up his mind, and said: "This bow, for the soldiers and civilians of Qingguo and the people of Dongyi City, thank Lord Sword Saint for his mercy." ”

"Don't thank me. Si Gu Jian suddenly laughed at himself. said: "If Nanqinglai is not you." I flatly refused to say yes. ”

Fan Xian smiled, thinking that the little emperor of Northern Qi had come all the way. You have avoided it, which means that you have already made a calculation in your heart, why do you still want to say this? The current situation is doomed, if Sigu Jian wants Dongyi City to be spared from the disaster of swords, there is only this way.

Looking at the happy young man beside him, Gu Jian was also in a somewhat strange mood, and he had to admit that although this kid's strength was relatively poor. But luck was good. It took one night to solve the biggest problem in one fell swoop. More than half. He laughed again and thought to himself about this young man. I still don't know why my attitude has always been there for him.

Si Gu Jian really wanted to see what Fan Xian's expression looked like when he solved the problem at the last moment. It's just that...... He might have been dead by then, right?" he thought to himself. Then turn your head. looked at Fan Xian and said: "You have to believe me, if it weren't for you, even if your emperor Lao Tzu personally came to kneel and beg me, I wouldn't agree to your Nanqing conditions." ”

Fan Xian was puzzled.

Si Gu Jian lowered his head. Weirdly laughed. said: "Ye Qingmei's household registration has always been in Dongyi City. Speaking of which, you are at least half a Dongyi person. It's just that you don't know about it all along. ”
