Chapter 40: The Past
"There is currently no one in the Executive Department to replace the professor's position, and we speculate that the minister's position will be vacant for some time to come.
The Senate will send some armed factions to take charge of the Executive, such as Beowulf's old and hard-nosed one. The position of deputy minister is something you can fight for. In the current situation, we need the influence of the Executive Department. ”
"So how do I cooperate?"
Chu Zihang felt that this matter was not very reliable, but he didn't ask much. He has a wealth of work experience as a student cadre, and it is estimated that the deputy minister is not much different, probably.
"Just keep it the way it is, don't show it off.
In the hearts of those who participated in the battle the day before yesterday, you who were transformed into dragons are all heroes. We want to focus on public relations, and those who are not present. Normal people must be very resistant to the phenomenon of high dragonization. ”
Because of the contradiction with the Abrahamic lineage, techniques such as blood explosion have long been in a gray area. It's time for something to change, and Li Wuyue's raid is a fitting opportunity.
If the person who bursts into blood and resists the dragon king can enter the number because of the bloodline of the god, then Luo Yin, a dragon bone gourmet, will not start indefinitely. It's not good, it's bad.
————————————
Ten centuries ago, the city of ten thousand people.
Under the newly built white city wall, a young man dressed in black stood in front of his brother in the general's clothes, and behind him stood a gray-clothed and masked domestic servant.
The younger brother looked to be only about twelve or thirteen years old, and his stature was thin, like a sapling without water. The elder brother is very burly and strong, full of heroic spirit, and his face is full of vicissitudes carved by years of conquest.
But when the brothers face each other, the younger brother who is plainly dressed is faintly more noble, with an innate majesty.
"Brother, I'm not human. My help in this battle should be regarded as a commemoration of the past ten years. I am a young son, and I am called sick and dead to the public. ”
Li Yuanhao looked at his younger brother Li Chengwei with horror on his face. He also has a delicate name, Foggy Moon.
The relationship between their brothers is not particularly deep. However, before Li Wuyue and the crown, Li Yuanhao often took this young brother out hunting, and rode horses together on the sunset plain.
Because Li Yuanhao felt that his younger brother was no threat. Li Wuyue's mother falsely hid that Qu Huaishi was only a commoner, and he was sick and weak since he was a child, and often stayed in bed for several days to recuperate.
But in yesterday's confrontation with the Song army, this "no threat" young brother slaughtered hundreds of people with a snap of his fingers. The dead fell in pieces like wheat, and blood splattered silently.
With Li Wuyue's assistance, he easily defended the city of Tongwan, and killed countless enemies on the way to the rout of the enemy army.
The white city wall of Tongwan City, whether it is military significance or symbolic significance, is very prominent, and has been a battleground for hundreds of years. The city changed hands several times during the years of war, and was repeatedly destroyed and rebuilt.
There have been rumors that Li Wuyue is actually a demon. After all, no one can not change for ten years, and always look like a teenager who has not grown up.
"Are you really a demon?"
That "demon wind" was not only a nightmare for the enemy, but also a nightmare for Li Yuanhao. If the mysterious younger brother wants to kill him, he may only raise his hand.
"There are real dragons in this world. And the hatred between humans and dragons stretches for hundreds of generations. ”
Li Wuyue's servant explained.
"Nameless, needless to say."
Li Yuanhao rubbed his eyes and was immediately shocked. The gray-clad servant lifted the black cloth that covered his face, revealing a hideous face covered with blue and black scales.
At that time, he had just abandoned the name "Hermes", and it was not Friedrich or Lin Fenglong. He is just a servant of the Wind King, "nameless".
Li Wuyue didn't say anything more, and was ready to go to the Central Plains as planned. There are many half-blood families gathered there, and there are records of his siblings appearing.
As for the exile in Western Xia, being adopted by that woman and pretending to give birth to a child is just another reincarnation bubble for him.
Li Wuyue was used to the initial dazedness every time she woke up from the cocoon. The beginning of each life was uniformly classified by him into the garbage information in his memory.
Li Yuanhao broke out in a cold sweat in the warning dragon power, watching the two true dragons leave, and the black steed under his crotch trembled and did not dare to move.
Visions flashed in his head. Li Wuyue, who was sick and weak when he was young, his younger brother who followed him out on the hunt when he was a teenager, killed people like a demon wind on the battlefield, and the Shura battlefield when he was at war with Song Liao......
"Cheng Wei, stop! Whether you're a dragon or a demon, you're my brother. ”
Li Wuyue looked back in surprise. Li Yuanhao does not have dragon blood, but he can overcome the impact of Long Wei, such a person is rare.
"It doesn't matter if it's someone or something else. What matters is the world, with whom to rule the world! Cheng Wei, stay and help me, let the iron horses of Great Xia step on the world! ”
Li Wuyue didn't answer, staring directly into the eyes of the "elder brother", and the extremely prosperous Long Wei pinched Li Yuanhao's heart.
At this time, this ambitious ruler was somewhat aware of what a dragon was. The brain went blank and the eyes were bloodshot. And he dispersed the guards before he came to see Li Wuyue, which was really stupid.
The dragon king looked at the interesting human, and there seemed to be a smile on his face.
Li Wuyue read the eyes of "brother". Fear, regret, huge ambition. If he saw anything that was unpleasant to him, it would make Long Wei crush Li Yuanhao's heart.
"Tell me about your sincerity."
"I swear with the life of my eldest son that I will never fight against my younger brother, and I will never do anything that harms me in secret, as evidenced by the heavens and the ancestors of the past generations.
Since then, Great Xia has revered the true dragon as a totem. Cheng Wei, you are free to organize an army, I don't ask, and there will never be any opposition within the clan.
As long as you help me, I will conquer the world with those witchcraft. ”
"It's not a witchcraft, it's called a spirit of words."
Li Wuyue nodded at Lin Fenglong. The plan may need to be changed.
"Lord, he can't be trusted."
"It's just a snap of a finger to kill him."
Li Wuyue does not deny it. Human beings are often not trustworthy, let alone such ambitious people.
"His awe and desire for power and power is just like that of a true dragon. Such people have the value of cooperation. ”
......
"Our spies at the border are gone. No message came back. ”
"In recent years, the Xia army has won successive battles. After Li Yuanhao became emperor, the edge was even stronger, and even under Guazhou and Shazhou, the Song army was unable to support it. ”
Autumn 1039, Suzhou and Hangzhou.
Two middle-aged men dressed as Confucian scholars are calm on the outside, but their hearts are full of worries.
They are not worried about a change of dynasty. The dynasty has changed its name, and the world is still the same world. They are worried about something more terrifying.
"Bo Heng, there are many abnormal news at the border. Soldiers were cut in the throat by witchcraft at night, thunderstorms hurt people in the rain, and long snakes with wings soared into the clouds. ”
The slightly chubby Liu Boheng pulled his beard and felt panicked.
"Half-breeds in war? Or ......"
"On the Xia side, I've never heard of such a strong half-blood family that can kill all our spies like a thunderbolt."
"If you search through Tianluo (bloodline knot), then this person's bloodline is quite high. Or, an ancient dragon appeared in the Xia Kingdom. ”
The woman in plain robe suddenly appeared in the Huxin Pavilion where the two were talking, almost scaring Liu Boheng to the point of heart stopping.
"Old Chu, I think it's more likely to be a dragon. There is no reason for Xia Guo to suddenly have the ability to form a half-blood army, but if it is a dragon, it is easy to explain. ”
"Repair, you?"
"I'll go to Tongwan City to check the situation over there. This kind of work, I go to the most suitable. ”
Lu bamboo, the word repair, a small name of the immortal on the rivers and lakes. In fact, it comes from a dragon slaying family.
"But those spies were found......"
Lao Chu, who had a vicissitudes of life, was quite worried. He felt that it was safer for a group of people to carry knives and slash over.
"I'm a professional. Even if it's a dragon king, it's not easy to find me. ”
Halfway through Lu Xiu's words, it was as if he had disappeared in the perception of others. But she stood there without the slightest movement.
She likes her speech and spirit ability, and she can easily create a high-end image of her coming and going without a trace, so that she can pretend to be an immortal to cheat money.
Lao Chu is a madman who drinks blood with a knife, but he usually takes care of her like a daughter. Lao Liu is timid and afraid, and it is difficult for him to kill a sparrow.
But Lao Liu is very, very rich. On this trip to the northwest, Lu Zhu was able to knock out a small travel fee of 100 million yuan from his treasury.
......
Heavy snow is beginning to clear.
The white snow reflected the dazzling white light, and the wind was cold.
The childish boy was dressed in a fur suit, and his face was red from the cold, but he smiled brightly.
Because Li Ningming is flying. The gentle whirlwind supported his body and flew in the air more than ten meters high.
The Wind King's Pupil, a violent spirit of speech, is cast by the next generation, and the operation is as simple as a child's toy.
Li Ningming is the eldest son of the "elder brother". Unlike his father, Li Wuyue could not see a trace of power burning in the eyes of this big boy.
He witnessed the power of words and spirits on the battlefield, and since then he has relied on Li Wuyue's side, asking him to teach himself "immortal arts" every day.
But even the Dragon King has no way to make the bloodless safely become a half-blood, let alone become a dragon.
In the end, the result of the compromise was to let Lin Fenglong play with him for a while.
"Uncle, please, teach me this! I'll just learn it, maybe I can learn it! ”
Li Ningming is very intelligent, also known as diligent, and is keen to read the books of the Han people. But you really can't learn this.
"You can't learn."
Li Wuyue shook her head expressionlessly. Years have passed, and he is still the same as he has not grown up, and he will continue to do so in the future.
Judging from his appearance alone, Li Ningming looks like his elder brother.
The young man left disappointed again, and Li Wuyue walked towards Li Yuanhao, who was watching. The father's eyes were full of disappointment, and his disappointment came from many sources.
"He's not like me. In his eyes, there is no whole world. ”
"How are state affairs going?"
Li Wuyue avoided the topic. And Li Yuanhao's eyes lit up.
"We're going to change our surname. Abandon the given surname and re-establish the surname of the name. Doesn't that sound good, right?
I won't call 'Emperor'. In the future, the ruler of the Xia Kingdom will be 'Wuzu', which means the son of the blue sky......"
Li Yuanhao talked endlessly, but Li Wuyue didn't react, as usual.
These are all meaningless things. But human beings will always be bound by such boring things, and even emperors are not surprised.
"If Ning Ming is not like you, after you die, I will leave the Xia Kingdom."
In the snow, the brothers stopped. Li Yuanhao's hands were trembling.
Long.
"Is it really impossible for a man to be a dragon?"
"No, you can't. Maybe I could. People will eventually die. ”
Li Wuyue answered her brother's unspoken question.
"Then leave, after I die. Take with you the people you seek and cultivate. ”
The dragon king stood alone in the snow, a little lonely.
Among the first generation of species, Li Wuyue is the most special one. He is strong, but also the loneliest.
Because he doesn't know where his twin has gone. Since a long time ago, Li Wuyue has only had a vague impression of her brothers and sisters.
He sometimes wondered that maybe there was only one Wind King. He is the loneliest creature in the world outside of the Black King.
Therefore, even for "brothers" like Li Yuanhao, who use each other, they can't help but have a faint emotion in their hearts.
"This human being is getting more and more stupid now. Greedy for vanity, addicted to women, thirsty for immortality, suspicious and irritable. These emperors are like carved out of a mold. ”
Lin Fenglong commented in a low voice.
"If it doesn't work, just throw him away. The races of the sky will never be tied to one place. ”
Li Wuyue became as hard as iron again in a moment.
Late at night.
Li Ningming shrunk in the quilt, so excited that he couldn't sleep. His mind is full of pictures of "flying against the wind" during the day, which he can remember for a lifetime.
He struggled to recall the ancient and unspeakable words, but there was no way to restore them.
The overexcited teenager put on his warm fur coat and slipped out of the house into the daytime snow.
At this moment, Li Ningming saw the immortal.
It was a woman in white, standing quietly on a snowy roof. Her long black hair was tied in a bun, her face was hazy, and her white clothes seemed to be shrouded in a layer of mist.
Spirits (ghosts). Hide one's presence by reducing the sense of presence, creating minor hallucinations, perceiving dislocations, etc.
For those with lower bloodlines, this chicken rib spirit can only make him a little transparent in the crowd. But with the blessing of Lu Xiulian's bloodline, even Li Wuyue couldn't find out that she was eating and living in Tongwan City, and the external effects caused by ghosts were much richer.
She can actually advance it to a higher-level shadow, but how can stealth be as high as it is now.
Lu Xiu Huang floated down the roof like a feather, came to the young man, and motioned for him to be silent. It was not an accident that Li Ningming could see her, but had been planning for a long time.
"You, you're ...... too"
"Dingxian Mountain Road Bamboo, the word repair. You can call me Lu Daxian, phew, Bamboo Immortal. ”
Of course, Dingxian Mountain or something is casual nonsense, she can't say that she is from a certain dragon slaying family.
The young man was so excited that he didn't realize that he was chosen by Lu Xiuhuang and approached Li Yuanhao's tool.
In the current situation, Li Yuanhao's attitude towards the Dragon King is unclear, and it is too risky to rashly contact him. And this prince, who has no bad intentions, is a good springboard.
"Can you teach me the kind of immortal art that flies to the sky?"
"I won't do that, my master didn't teach me."
She also wished she could have two spirits.
"But I'll do this."
Lu Xiuhuang opened the ghost completely, and his body became translucent, as if dissolved in the air, turning into a real white ghost. She scurried through the snow, as she flew flat ground because of her high blood and agile pace.
"This is called Yang God, and it requires a fairly high Taoism, and it can go out of the body for a day trip."
Lu Xiuhuan is talking nonsense. She looked at the young man's excited expression, and felt a little guilty in her heart. Being involved in the dragon slaying war means that life is in danger.
But she can't help it, the dragon slayer is always the weak side in the face of the dragon king, and can't take care of all life.
"It's a secret between us. If you tell someone else, I'll leave. Relatively, I will teach you to cultivate immortals. ”
"Can I really learn? Uncle he said......"
Lu Zhu struggled inwardly for a moment, and spit out a word: "Yes." ”
......
"The prince's interest in the dragon clan is far beyond expectations. His obsession even surpassed that of his father. ”
In the stronghold outside Tongwan City, Liu Boheng had a sad face every day.
He set up a magic circle in the stronghold to avoid the detection of the spirit of words, but it is not certain whether it is good to face the dragon king.
"I never imagined that. Even though I gradually told him the truth, Li Ningming was still fanatical and obsessed with dragon blood. ”
Lu Xiuhuang was very distressed.
