Chapter 230: Spirits hurt, cool breeze and cold
"The green mountains do not change, and the green water flows forever. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info I promised to come to the capital alive with you, and as long as you don't die, I will do my best to do it. ”
"Sure enough, he is my good brother, he will do what he says, and he will do what he does. I, Chu Tianyu, can make a friend like you when I am most depressed, and I am fortunate to have three lives. ”
Remembering the old love, not forgetting the identity.
Chu Tianyu is now the monarch of the Chu State of the Eastern Spirit Domain, who is above 10,000 people, and he is not the cold young man who was forced to be exiled to Dragon Slaying Town in desperation, and he has changed his emphasis when he speaks.
Everything changes, the world is unpredictable, and the wheel of fate rolls and never stops, pushing people to walk different roads and do different things, so that they have different fates and different wonderful.
The capital was in turmoil, with heavy casualties, and the Five Great Avenues faction was hit, waving their hands and ignoring royal affairs. The old monster Chu was destroyed, the remaining clansmen of the Chu Ling clan compromised, and Chu Tianyu complied with the voice of the people, inherited the throne, and was honored as the king of Chu.
He was ordered to rule for three years in times of crisis, quell the war launched by the Qin State of the Western Spirit Domain of the Shangwu Continent, reach a non-aggression pact with the three countries of the South Spirit Domain, and cede the interests of the wilderness to achieve stability in the south.
By forming an alliance with the Three Kingdoms of the Southern Spiritual Domain, this move has prompted the Eastern Spiritual Domain and the Southern Spiritual Domain of the Xingqi Continent to unite together, forcing the Shangwu Continent to no longer have the ambition to rashly raise troops to invade the Xingqi Continent, and ensure the safety of the lives of most of the people.
Then, Chu Tianyu abolished the slum system, reduced taxes, divided rewards and punishments, stabilized internal affairs, won the hearts of the people, and once again fundamentally alleviated the contradictions in the capital and resolved the crisis.
The three years of governing training have helped Chu Tianyu to become stronger in character, calm and decisive in the face of trouble, not afraid of danger, and quite a wise gentleman.
Chu Tianyu was really shocked and sincerely happy at Jiang Ling's sudden appearance, he also thought that Jiang Ling had been crushed to death by the stones that had collapsed from the underground palace three years ago, and he didn't expect Jiang Ling to appear miraculously three years later.
He doesn't call himself a widow but calls me to those close to him, which makes him feel more appropriate and natural.
"You're happy that you came out alive, and Lingtong and I are very happy. Chu Tianyu sat on the dragon chair and greeted with a happy face.
Listening to Chu Tianyu speak like this, Jiang Ling was a little uncomfortable, and he always felt a little bit worse, and seemed to be a little unfamiliar, without the calmness and unrestraint that he had when he first met.
Jiang Ling put away his smile and said politely: "Tianyu is now the king of Chu, so he naturally has to look like an emperor." It's okay that you don't have too many worries when it comes to talking about things. ”
Chu Tianyu smiled awkwardly and disguised: "Jiang Ling, you are my good brother, the green mountains do not change, the green water flows forever, I am very happy that you are alive." ”
Jiang Ling pressed the memories of his previous youth in his heart, and secretly thought to himself: "Today is not what it used to be, Tianyu's identity has changed, I have also experienced so many things, my mentality has changed, and I can never return to the innocent and romantic time of the past." It's good that it doesn't look like I'm here to get close. ”
There was silence for a long time, and the two of them lowered their heads and did not speak.
Chu Tianyu thought that Jiang Ling was dead, and if he died, he would die, and it would not cause trouble and turmoil, at most, in the dead of night, he remembered that he once had such a good brother.
However, when he knew exactly that the person standing in front of him was Jiang Ling, he was a little flustered, and he couldn't accept the sudden fact for a while.
In the past three years, Chu Tianyu turned Jiang Ling into a rebel leader to fight against reactionary forces, so as to stabilize the situation and appease the Chu Ling clan. After all, the Chu Ling clan was killed and wounded, and Chu Tianyu belonged to the Chu Ling clan, so he had to give a reasonable explanation to stop the clansmen's mouths.
Jiang Ling's appearance made him extremely embarrassed, and he didn't know how to give a reasonable explanation to the people of the world.
If it was announced that Jiang Ling was still alive, it would be tantamount to a blow to the prestige that had been built up with great difficulty in the past three years, discrediting him, and slapping himself in the face, which might once again cause dissatisfaction among the Chu Ling clan and even alarm all factions in the rivers and lakes.
If you don't admit that Jiang is flexible, it will be like deceiving yourself, and you can deceive the world, but you can't deceive your conscience. Chu Tianyu was able to win the throne, to a certain extent, because of Jiang Ling's help.
It was Chu Tianyu who broke the silence, and he said in a pleading tone: "Do you come back to take the Spirit Pupil with you?"
Hearing this, Jiang Ling was shocked, and he didn't know Chu Tianyu who was sitting on the dragon chair.
He was silent for a long time before he took a cold breath and said: "The people praise you for Mingjun, see you today, Tianyu is not only a Mingjun who works for the benefit of the people, but also a wise monarch who takes care of the overall situation." ”
Jiang Ling had already preliminarily guessed Chu Tianyu's distress and understood Tianyu's situation.
He smiled and said, "I met Lingtong in a difficult situation, and I had no fate. I can't give her the happiness she wants, only you can do it, I came back this time, and I was satisfied to see her happy. As for the high-ranking officials Houlu, Tianyu can't help but look down on me too much, money, fame and fortune are not my request, and they can't restrain me. ”
Receiving such an answer, Chu Tianyu looked ashamed, but at the same time breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed lightly: "I don't see the old man and I don't want money, what do you want? ”
Jiang Ling leaned his back against the pillar and laughed: "You finally said what you wanted, I didn't come back to disrupt your rule, but to take a sword, a sword that belongs to me." ”
Chu Tianyu's body trembled slightly, picked up the bloodthirsty nether sword placed on the table, stroked the sword body, and praised: "Good sword, the sword of the world, the sword of chivalry." ”
"Here you go, your sword, I'll keep it for you for three years, and not a single speck of dust will be touched. ”
When Chu Tianyu threw out the Bloodthirsty Nether Sword, it was as if the stone that had been hanging in his heart for three years had finally fallen, and he was relaxed.
Jiang Ling took the bloodthirsty ghost sword, tried to swing it a few times, and said with emotion: "I haven't touched it for three years, but there is no trace of rustiness, this sword is really tailor-made for me by God." ”
Jiang Ling raised the Bloodthirsty Netherworld Sword, his face suddenly changed, and he quickly cast the Ghost Shadow Trace Step, using the fourth move of the Haiyuan Sword Technique, the 'Invincible Sword'.
The sharp tip of the sword pierced through the air, approaching Chu Tianyu as fast as lightning, and shouted: "Tianyu, take me a move." ”
Chu Tianyu was stunned for a moment, and seeing the tip of the sword stabbing over, he hurriedly retreated, pulled out his sword, and used all his strength to block the bloodthirsty Netherworld Sword.
His hands trembled violently, his face showed surprise, he struggled to resist the sword qi of the Bloodthirsty Nether Sword, and sighed with surprise in his eyes: "I haven't seen you for a few years, you have reached the strength of the sixfold strength of the Earth Spirit Mirror, it's really terrifying." ”
Jiang Ling clenched the hilt of the sword, poured in a stream of aura, slashed horizontally, and knocked down the sword in Chu Tianyu's hand, a smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "This sword is for you who were high-spirited back then." Tianyu, there will be a period in the future, manage the Chu State well, stop cultivating, and the world will be peaceful. ”
As he spoke, Jiang Ling's figure turned around and left the palace as fast as lightning.
Chu Tianyu's hands trembled, and he sat on the dragon chair with a shocked expression, with the strength of the sevenfold spirit realm of others, he would definitely not be able to block Jiang Ling's sword.
"Good brother, thank you for ringing the alarm bell, I remember. I vowed not to take the initiative to provoke a war during my time in power. ”
Chu Tianyu looked at the door of the gilded hall, and seemed to see Jiang Ling's face with a shallow smile, he picked up the sword that had been knocked down on the ground, and also laughed, sighing: "Ten years later, the rivers and lakes will definitely change because of you." ”
Jiang Ling retrieved the Bloodthirsty Nether Sword, he was overjoyed, and he wiped the sword over and over again. He left the imperial city quietly with the little fox, as if he had not crawled out of the ruins of the royal palace.
Walking out of the ruins of the underground palace alive is a farewell to the past, and a welcome to a new life.
He and the little fox, one man and one fox, walked leisurely in the wilderness, laughing wildly, screaming, indescribable comfort, indescribable relief.
Go deep into the forest, walk on the gravel path of the deciduous forest, let the forest wind caress it, blow away the vicissitudes of life, bury the past, do not read the past, only hold the ash jar wine jar tightly, and drink bitterly.
Jiang Ling was dressed in a Taoist robe, wearing a dark Hell Devil Axe on his waist, and carrying a blood-red bloodthirsty Nether Sword on his back, stopping his confused footsteps and turning his head, tears already wetting his eyes.
Hold the wine jar tightly in one hand and hold the fox in the other.
Spirits into the throat, do not hurt, cool breeze into the bones, not cold.
No one saw a person and a fox walk out of the heavily guarded imperial city, no one remembered the past, there was a person and a fox making trouble in the underground palace, and the past was like smoke, passing away with the wind.
The little fox grabbed Jiang Ling's hand, raised his head, flashed his eyes, and asked, "Brother, where are we going?"
Jiang Ling smiled at the corner of his mouth, poured a sip of strong wine, raised his eyes to look into the distance, and said with a smile: "Take you to the end of the world, popular all over the world." ”
"Yes, yes! The little fox has not yet seen the beauty of the human world, so he must feast his eyes on it. ”
"Little fox, do you remember what I promised to tell you?"
"I remember that every word my brother said, the little fox kept it firmly in his heart. You said that when the battle was over, you would tell me the truth about my mother's death, and I had been waiting!"
Jiang Ling said frankly: "In the battle of the Lock Demon Tower that day, it was indeed the catastrophe that I interrupted your mother's incarnation into a human being, which caused her Neidan to be impacted and failed to survive. ”
The little fox firmly held Jiang Ling's hand, lowered his head, and said softly: "Mother's Neidan told Xiao Fox that it is not my brother's fault, everything has its own calamity in the dark, and it is difficult to determine the fortune and misfortune, and the death of my mother, Xiao Fox does not blame my brother." ”
Jiang Ling turned his head and smiled at the little fox with relief, and said, "The Nine-Tailed Fox King, the queen of the demon clan of a generation, would rather scatter all his spirit than save your life." Although her death has nothing to do with me, I often feel guilty when I think of it. Little fox, believe me, as long as I live, I will do my best to send you back to the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan in the Hundred Beast Demon Domain. ”
The little fox raised his head, smiled back, and said with a smile: "The little fox doesn't want to return to the Hundred Beasts Demon Domain, he just wants to accompany his brother to wander the world and become popular all over the world." ”
"Raccoon... You're not grown up yet, you don't understand. I promised your mother, the Nine-Tailed Fox King, to send you back to the Nine-Tailed Fox Clan in the Hundred Beast Demon Domain safely, and I will do my best to do what I say."
"No, in the heart of the little fox, my brother is my dearest person, as long as my brother is safe and sound, the little fox is willing to accompany him for the rest of his life and never give up. ”
"Raccoon..."
"Brother..."
