Beizhou, the territory of the human race, the emperor of the people declared that he was in retreat and enlightenment forty years ago, and all the power in the court was handed over to Cao Xiong of the Xiangguo, and now Cao Xiangguo is like the original emperor of the people, the power is monstrous, and the ministers of the court are all afraid, that is, even the seven princes and the masters of the harem can only whisper in front of them, so as not to cause trouble.

Recently, Nanzhou sent an envoy to Beizhou to discuss diplomatic relations between the two countries.

At this time, Cao Xiangguo was at the palace gate and Nanzhou came to make a warm farewell, there was nothing strange about this scene, but if the two people looked carefully when they gave the ceremony, they could see that the little arms exposed by the two were tattooed, Cao Xiong's embroidery only exposed the top half, and it could be vaguely seen that it was a sharp sword, the embroidery was silvery-white, and the lower half was all hidden in the sleeve robe.

Waiting for the envoy's big sleeves to slide down, he saw that the upper half of the embroidery on his forearm was the same as Cao Xiong's, but the lower half was like a suspended land pierced by a sharp sword, the difference was that the envoy's embroidery was brass.

Not to mention the significance of the embroidery of the two, at this time the two had already given their own farewell gifts, Cao Xiong assigned an official to escort the envoy to and from the large array, then turned around and returned to the palace, and actually set up his own residence in the palace.

Back to the palace, there was already the palace maid who saw Xiangguo returning, served tea, and several palace maids quietly walked behind him, and played a pu fan to gently fan the wind to cool down, Cao Xiong drank a few sips of tea, suddenly felt a little tired, and wanted to get up and go back to the room to rest.

At this time, a man dressed in black suddenly appeared beside him, and he couldn't see how the man got here, but Cao Xiong didn't panic, just sat back with his slightly raised buttocks, and then held up the teacup and asked casually, "What's the matter?"

The man in black bowed his hand, bowed slightly, and said: "Back to Xiangguo, the ministers sent the envoys away, and when the teleportation array was not closed, the Seven Emperors and Grandsons suddenly rushed out of nowhere, forcibly opened the teleportation, and escaped, at this time must have been in Nanzhou." ”

With a "snap", Cao Xiong threw the teacup back on the table, and spilled a few teases, but no palace maid dared to come forward to wipe it.

"Did you send someone to chase after you?" Cao Xiong asked with a frown.

"I don't know what the Seven Emperor Sun did at that end, but when the teleportation array can be activated again, I found that it was broken, and if I want to repair it again, it will take three days at the earliest. ”

Cao Xiong's brows furrowed even tighter, and he continued to ask:

"Do you know where he went?"

"I don't know, the teleportation array needs to enter a specific empty mark to transmit, the Seven Emperor Sun has not been out of the palace gate since he was born in the past 20 years, there can be no specific purpose, this empty mark can not be made up out of thin air, I think it must be that the empty mark made by Nanzhou was slightly modified and passed on, and now the big array is broken, and the last place can not be known, so the subordinates can only conclude that he went to Nanzhou, and there is no way to inquire about it. Although the man in black answered Cao Xiong's question seriously, there was no fear on his face like others.

Cao Xiong wanted to get angry, but he looked at the wooden face of the man in black, as if he was taboo about something, so he had to forcibly suppress the anger, and wanted to open his mouth and order someone to go to Nanzhou to bring him back, but it was quite difficult to think about it carefully, the Seven Emperors Sun was originally a peep into the realm, although the actual combat ability was low and could not be described in words, but if it was to be safe, it still needed to be sent to Xuanzhi.

Thinking of this, Cao Xiong secretly shook his head and thought:

"Although there are many capable people in the court, which of these people who have entered the Xuan Dynasty is not the elite of all ethnic groups, and sending them to arrest a useless emperor and grandson is hindering my face, and it is really a bit overkill. ”

Thinking of this, Cao Xiong smiled self-deprecatingly, and then he didn't know where to go with anger, and said indifferently:

"That's it, I also attach too much importance to the above plan, I am too nervous, in the early years, the royal family still had some influence ability, I was afraid that they would be restless and go out to chew their tongues, so they were imprisoned in the imperial city until now, but now this group of royal families has been locked up for many years, and they have long lost their hearts, one by one, like the walking dead, otherwise they are greedy for pleasure, and they are not as good as the beasts who are still a little fierce in the cage. ”

"Just like these seven emperor grandsons, although they still have some ambitions, but they don't have any ability at all, I'm afraid that they can't shoot a little wave, since they escaped, if they die in Nanzhou, if they come back one day, they just use him to make an example of them, and they also call the royal family to be honest for decades. ”

The man in black listened indifferently, and symbolically held Cao Xiong and replied:

"Xiangguo is wise, but the Seven Emperors and Grandsons can't die, he has Taifu's life-saving talisman with him, if his life is in danger, he can attract the power of space and call Taifu to his side. ”

Hearing the man in black mention Taifu, Cao Xiong was unhappy in his heart, and said fiercely:

"That old thing is stubborn, he doesn't know how to judge the situation, and he doesn't agree with him after several persuasions, but I have so many royal lives in my hands, and he doesn't dare to disobey me in major matters, so you go and tell him that if the Seventh Emperor Sun triggers the talisman and orders him to escort it back and wait for me to fall, if not, he knows the consequences. ”

After that, he waved his sleeves and sent the man in black away, and went back to the house to rest.

Ten days later, on a wasteland in Nanzhou, Ye Shaobai and the others were still on their way, but there were no more questioning scenes, Ye Shaobai had completely lost confidence in Shi Wuxin now, and simply resigned himself to fate.

Since nine days ago, Ye Shaobai thought that he would not be able to go to Xizhou in the short term, so he slowly practiced the footwork of "Covering the Sky and Shadow Dance" during the journey.

After a few days of practice, as Ye Shaobai's footwork gradually became proficient, Shi Wuxin found an abnormality, often stopped to practice the knife technique and watched behind him, and saw that the way he walked was very strange, most of the steps seemed to be slippery, but he couldn't see where to move out, and there were a few times when he just felt that he wanted to see the clues, but suddenly he seemed to be dazzled, and the figure flashed to the front.

I couldn't help but be curious, and Shi Wuxin also inquired about Shaobai a few times overnight, but this hatred of starving his body and skin and tired his muscles and bones was so great that he naturally couldn't get an answer.

At this time, it was dark, under Shi Wuxin's suggestion, the two of them found a shelter from the wind and rested, Ye Shaobai went to the side to meditate every time he rested, but in recent times, he has resumed his previous hobby of being in a daze, as long as he sits down, he looks around in a daze, and he doesn't know what he is looking at, the sky, the bonfire, the woods, and the lake will be in a daze no matter what he looks at.

Shi Wuxin had long been accustomed to his weird hobbies, and he didn't care about him, he found a place to spend the night, and then went to forage for food, but the difference today is that Shi Wuxin took back the prey until it was roasted and eaten, and even Shi Wuxin woke up after a nap, Ye Shaobai was still motionless in a daze, if it weren't for his eyes kept open, it seemed to be in a trance.

This time, Shi Wuxin couldn't lie down, thinking "I won't starve to death" and cautiously walked to his side, wanting to see if there was any breath first.

Ye Shaobai couldn't be in a daze as Shi Wuxin thought, in fact, because of the last war, after using the "Mirror" magic power, every time he stared at things quietly, he could see a suspicious hallucinatory linear pattern in his eyes.

Those silk threads are very hazy, if you don't look at them carefully, you can't see their traces, these silk threads have no head and tail, everywhere, like the bucket on their own fingers, but this bucket is overwhelming, there is no boundary, if you look at it for a long time, it seems to be stuck in it, unable to extricate yourself, so although Ye Shaobai is often in a daze, sometimes he is observing the pattern, sometimes he is really in a daze, in order to achieve the effect of emptying the brain and restoring energy.

With a long period of observation, Ye Shaobai didn't have a clue, but he happened to find some wonders just at the right time.

It turned out that whether it was a bonfire lit, or a breeze blowing, those silk threads would have different changes, and after several certifications, I found that it was not the bonfire and the breeze that made it change, but some factors before the fire and the wind caused the change of the lines, and then the fire was lit and the wind was born.

"Peep the Dao, peep the Dao, I know, is this the Dao?

This enlightenment is that Ye Shaobai gave birth to a big misunderstanding, those silk threads are the laws of the Heavenly Dao, which is the one or two that the peep monk can touch, all because of his unique opportunity to get this opportunity, as for why the opportunity is a later story, but now Ye Shaobai is because of this misunderstanding on the road of cultivation out of a different path.
