Chapter 242: Snow Falls on Laoshan Mountain
In the blink of an eye, it is a small year, it seems that it has been dry for too long, and things must be reversed, and today's heavy snow is exceptionally heavy and endless.
Forty miles away from Laoshan Mountain, there is a small island here, and the island is already white at this time.
On the cliff at the highest point of the island, an old man stood here with a sword in his hand, and beside the old man was a middle-aged Taoist man holding a feather fan.
As everyone knows, Shangguan Xianchen, the sect master of the Sword Sect, has six sword slaves, from the frost realm to the realm of heaven and man, five of them died one after another after being born, leaving only the last big sword slave who stayed on Biyou Island, and this big sword slave has already stepped into the realm of freedom and plays a pivotal role in the Sword Sect. Especially when Zhang Chongguang died, Shangguan Xianchen was seriously injured, and the first apprentice, Gongsun Zhongmou, lacked prestige and qualifications, he was almost the real person of today's Sword Sect.
The old man held his sword and looked in the direction of Laoshan Mountain, listened to the sound of the waves crashing against the rock wall, and said to the Taoist beside him: "Laoshan Mountain, what a good place." ”
Li Ruzhi, who was holding a feather fan, chuckled lightly and said, "It is indeed a good place for the dead." ”
The old man smiled and did not speak, but looked down at the sword in his arms.
The sword he is holding now is known as the Eight Generals Soul Breaker. It's a sword of slaughter.
If the black Xuan that Mr. Fu gave to Wang Dongle is just a semi-finished product, then this Eight Generals' Soul Breaker is a finished product.
Slaughtering thousands of people to forge a sword of their will.
When the sword starts, it is the killing intent that arises by itself.
Jeju City.
A woman walks side by side with an old man in the depths of the garden.
The woman had a graceful posture and a beautiful appearance, and said lightly: "After Xiao Yu's many purging of dissidents in the northwest, the shadows that Zhao Qing buried in the northwest back then have almost been removed, and I am afraid it will be difficult to play a big role this time." ”
The old man sighed slightly, "It's better to talk than nothing." ”
The woman reached out to catch a few snowflakes and said softly, "I've been waiting for this day for too long." ”
The old man chuckled, "You still can't let go of what happened back then." ”
The woman's face was expressionless, and she said: "I once swore that I would make him pay the price he deserved, since he wanted to push Xiao Yu up, I would let Xiao Yu fall down and never recover." ”
The two walked slowly along the snow-covered path until they came to a small lake.
The lake is not frozen, and a statue of a stone carp is rising above the lake.
The old man pointed to the stone carp and said slowly: "In terms of luck, Xiao Yu, who was trapped in the Eastern Capital at the beginning, was just a carp, although there was a glimmer of unfathomable hope of Jackie Chan, but in the final analysis, it was just a fish in the pond, and it could only be slaughtered by others." Until Xiao Yu left the Eastern Capital and went to the grassland, this is the return of fish to the sea, and the future is unlimited. Later, Xiao Yu helped Lin Yinping crusade against the Red Lady, and took the opportunity to steal the power of the grassland. Then Xu Lin's Northern Expedition was defeated, and Xiao Yu entered the central capital, truly becoming a prince, completing the most critical step from reckless to Jiao. If Xiao Yu is allowed to enter the Eastern Capital again, then he can be transformed into a dragon by Jiao, and he will be protected by the Heavenly Dao in the underworld, and it will be difficult to kill him. ”
The woman's eyes were indifferent, and there was a slight resentment in the indifference, and she said softly: "Is there really heavenly luck in this world?"
The old man said indifferently: "You'll know when you step into the realm of leisure." ”
The woman sighed leisurely and said, "What if Xiao Yu wins the whole world?"
The old man suddenly smiled, "The world is in the heart, that is naturally the true dragon, the true dragon of the true dragon of the Son of Heaven, the emperor of the opening dynasty, the emperor of the world, Hugh said that we are just a free and easy immortal, that is, the heavenly immortals, and I dare not do anything to the human emperor who has the protection of the heavens, I can only wait until the human emperor's longevity is exhausted, or he dies in the disaster of the world's swords, can he take action, do you know why?"
The woman shook her head.
The old man shook his head and looked at the sky, and said slowly: "The true dragon is the son of heaven, the real dragon is talking about luck, but what really makes the immortals jealous is the word "son of heaven." The meaning is very simple, the Son of Heaven is the son of heaven, and the immortals, to put it mildly, are actually thieves who steal the way of heaven, you say, if the heavens are affectionate, on one side is their own son, and on the other hand is the thief who broke into the house, who will you help?"
The woman suddenly said: "So since ancient times, there have only been emperors who have died in the hands of mortals, but there have never been emperors who have died in the hands of immortals." ”
The old man nodded, and sighed softly: "The current Northwest Army is very difficult to control, so this is our last chance, if it is not successful this time, after Xiao Yu ascends to the throne of the human emperor, it will be the real great difficulty." ”
At this time, Laoshan Mountain is already plain white, falling snow, floating clouds, white fog, and the sea in the distance, connected together, standing on the top of Laoshan Mountain, looking at it, the world is one color, as if in the glass world.
Xiao Yu stood in the Taiqing Palace, looking at the distant sea view through the window.
There are no waves on the sea, and the snow falls on the sea, and the snowflakes melt quickly, leaving no trace.
Zhang Baisui stood behind the King of the Northwest, cautious, not daring to make the slightest sound. Because the prince is happy and quiet these days, he doesn't like others to disturb him, and this time he came to Laoshan with only more than 100 entourages, and among these more than 100 people, only Zhang Baisui accompanied him, and the rest of the people were scattered all over Laoshan.
After a long time, Xiao Yu retracted his gaze and muttered to himself: "For some reason, I always have a feeling that in the land of the sunrise, there will be a sword coming from the east." ”
Zhang Baisui didn't dare to answer and was silent.
Outside, there was still a magnificent scenery of clouds gathering and dispersing, the tide ebbing and flowing, and the sea of fog surging, but it could no longer attract Xiao Yu's attention. Suddenly, Xiao Yu turned his head to look at Zhang Baisui and asked, "Ping'an, do you believe in the Mandate of Heaven?"
Zhang Baisui was stunned, but he couldn't stop answering, lowered his head and whispered: "Back to the prince's words, small letter." ”
Xiao Yu smiled and continued to ask, "Then do you believe in the destiny of heaven?"
Zhang Baisui replied directly: "The prince is the destiny of heaven." ”
He didn't know why the prince asked this question, but he knew how to answer. In his opinion, the prince who appreciates himself and teaches himself to practice is the first-class good person in the world, and he is also the most suitable person in the world to be the emperor, so he is naturally the person who belongs to the destiny of heaven.
Xiao Yu laughed at himself, "The destiny of heaven returns, only the living are the destiny of heaven, and everything is empty when they die." ”
Zhang Baisui shuddered suddenly, the back of his head was numb, and cold sweat oozed from his back almost instantly.
Xiao Yu played with the Buddha Bodhi in his hand, and said slowly: "Mr. Lan has already negotiated the matter of Buddhism, and Autumn Leaves has also sent back the news, and the Tianchen Dazhen agrees to this matter, so Mr. Xu and Mr. Nan personally escorted the old monk to the Taoist Sect, and after seven days, he can be completely suppressed into the demon suppression well, and the king has a matter on his mind." ”
Zhang Baisui is the only eunuch in the northwest, and it is precisely because of this identity that he has become Xiao Yu's confidant, many words, Xiao Yu will not even say to Lin Yinping, but will say to Zhang Baisui.
The snow stopped at some point.
A sunset appeared in the sky, sinking towards the sea with a faint afterglow.
The clouds in the sky were coated with a layer of splendor, and the setting sun dragged Xiao Yu's figure for a long time.
Xiao Yu stood in the bloody sun, and suddenly said: "This king has been staying here for a long time, you can pass on this king's decree later, prepare tonight, and leave tomorrow to return to the Chinese army." ”
Zhang Baisui promised and left in a hurry.
Xiao Yu watched the sunset completely disappear on the sea level alone.
Night envelops the sea, as well as Laoshan Mountain.
I don't know how long it took, but there were footsteps again.
Qi Yun Zhenren, who was dressed in a big red robe, came behind Xiao Yu and asked softly, "Poor Dao Fang just heard that the prince is leaving?"
Xiao Yu turned around and said, "It's been a short time to come here, it's time to go." ”
Qi Yun said with a smile: "The beautiful scenery of Laoshan Mountain is the most snowy scene, and now that the heavy snow will stop, Wang Ye might as well stay for a few more days, and it is not too late to leave after Chinese New Year's Eve." ”
Xiao Yu was noncommittal, turned his head again, and looked at the blue sea outside the window, a bright moon was rising.
The moon is born on the sea.
The bright moon is bright, like white jade and flawless.
Xiao Yu looked at this bright moon and said softly: "The beauty of a good day." ”
Suddenly, a black dot appeared in the center of the moon, and then the black dot quickly enlarged.
Someone came on the moon.
Before the person arrived, the sound had arrived.
"Lord Wang, borrow the head for a use. ”
