The four seasons are endless.

It's finally spring.

Although Lingshan is cut off from the past with the first snow in winter, it welcomes the future. But spring, after all, is spring, which means the beginning of another cycle of sprouting, prospering, withering, and withering.

Spring, for Chen Bai, is of great significance.

Although there are no fireworks pouring into the sky, and there are no neon brocade hanging branches, only when he steps into the threshold of spring will he really feel that another year has passed.

.….….…

No matter how the seasons change, Uncle Urge's feet are always empty.

It seems that only barefoot can feel the pulse of the mountains most clearly.

It's been nine days.

Uncle Xun looked at the mountains, and then looked in the direction of Chaodu.

Although his face was not shocked, his right foot was on the tip of the ground, as if he was always at ease, and he was ready to get up and go to the capital to take a look.

The wind is coming. It was at this time that Uncle Xuan suddenly felt that the firewood knife had been cut off from him.

A rare, relieved expression appeared on Uncle Xuan's face.

.….….…

"Sure enough!"

The whole process of Chen Bai taking away the firewood knife was fully seen by the three forces of the academy.

In an instant, Luo Jianqing appeared in front of the house, nodded at Chen Bai, and said, "Please come with me, the dean is waiting for you in the academy." ”

.….….…

Chen Bai was a low mountain that he arrived alone, and Tang Shu and Liu Si thought followed, but they were all rejected by Chen Bai.

On the one hand, because the Tang family has a visitor, Tang Shu is a little unreasonable not to stay at home. In addition, although it has been a few days since Chen Bai woke up, Liu Sisi still looks a little haggard and needs to recuperate.

.….….…

Low mountain, the top of the academy, Jiang Xiayu's study.

Luo Jianqing took Chen Bai and left.

Qi Heng saw Chen Bai coming, and hurriedly got up to greet him, he knew about Chen Bai's assassination in the foreground, but he didn't mention it, just gave a salute and greeted with a smile: "Mr. Chen." ”

Later, he introduced Chen Bai: "This is Dean Jiang of the academy. ”

Chen Bai saluted Jiang Xiayu, and wondered why Qi Heng was here.

"Could it be that Wei Mou was instructed by Qi Heng?" Chen Bai muttered in his heart. Although intuition is not possible. But his brows furrowed involuntarily.

At this time, Jiang Xiayu stared at Chen Bai with a smile, his eyes were full of expectations, and he twisted his white beard lightly, like a kind elder.

Perhaps seeing Chen Bai's doubts, he saw Jiang Xiayu beckoning the two of them to sit down, and said to Chen Bai: "Qi Heng was just called by me." ”

Chen Bai nodded and did not speak.

At this time, Jiang Xiayu continued to speak: "I wonder if the two of you are interested in listening to the old man's chatter about the past?" ”

Seeing that both of them nodded, Jiang Xiayu took care of himself and said....

.….….…

"The dispute between Zeguo and Chaochengshan State, and it can also be said that the dispute between Lingshan and Houhai has not stopped since ancient times."

"Even if you look at history, you can't find a reason why the dispute started. Or maybe you don't need it in the first place. ”

Chen Bai was indifferent to this, and Qi Heng on the side nodded in agreement.

"Due to the difference in the cultivation system and the life span of the monks, the strength of the monks accumulated by Houhai has always been stronger than that of Lingshan. However, fortunately, there is a star limit, and the monk basically does not directly participate in the struggle between the two countries. ”

"Therefore, the most direct struggle between the two countries is still between the armies."

"The army...."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiayu couldn't help but sigh.

"Where does the army come from, since ancient times the army has come from ordinary people."

"In the final analysis, the struggle between countries has eventually evolved into a struggle between ordinary people, and it is ordinary people who shed the most blood and casualties."

"Therefore, when I was young, I often wondered, why can't the world be the same, and there is no distinction between you and me, so that there is no fighting?"

Qi Heng has always scoffed at Jiang Xiayu's concept of universal harmony. However, now that he heard Jiang Xiayu say this, he unconsciously sat up straight, and he had a little more respect for Jiang Xiayu.

I only heard Jiang Xiayu continue to say a little lonely: "However, now it seems that my thoughts are wrong. ”

"More than 20 years ago, not long after Shu Shanlie succeeded to the throne, he urged Zhizhi, a once-in-a-millennium cultivation genius, to achieve power, and urged Zhizhi to fall in love with Shushan Lie's sister Shushan Wenyi, even to the point of talking about marriage."

Hearing Master's name, Chen Bai leaned forward, obviously interested.

Jiang Xiayu saw it, nodded slightly at Chen Bai, and continued: "It was also at that time that the Fifth Zhi didn't know what was crazy, and frantically sent troops to attack Chaocheng Mountain Country. ”

Not only that, but he also put forward what he called the "generational plan". ”

"Assassinate the rising star of the Asagi Mountain Kingdom. The literati of the Sao Ke entered the country and entertained the young people of Chaocheng Mountain Country with obscene poems and songs, hedonic games, etc., so that the younger generation was addicted to pleasure. ”

At that time, Shu Shanlie was the first to notice this problem, and then ordered Zhuangyi to be cut off, and even ordered Zhuangyi not to mention the sea. I want to leave a pure land for the mountain country of Chaocheng and retain some living power. ”

"It was also at that time that someone in the court proposed to let the eldest princess Shushan Wenyi reconcile, so as to stop the dispute."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiayu stopped, and after a long while, he continued: "At that time, I strongly agreed with Heqin. ”

As soon as the words fell, Jiang Xiayu's loneliness was even worse, and the meaning of self-blame was perceptible to the naked eye.

"Shushan Wenyi is a responsible princess, in order to shed less blood for the soldiers, and for the Chaocheng Mountain Country that Shushan Lie just took over to recuperate, she decisively gave up her happiness, concealed her urging, went to Zeguo, and chose to be peaceful."

"After urging him to know about it, he was furious and chased him to Houhai, and the scar on the left side of his face was also left at that time."

Hearing this, Chen Bai couldn't help but think in his heart: "Master is still in love with the eldest princess, otherwise he wouldn't ask how to calm the mountains and seas." Otherwise, he wouldn't have said that he almost had a teacher. ”

At this time, I only heard Jiang Xiayu sigh: "Alas! Twenty-two years are like yesterday. ”

"Now the two children of the eldest princess Shushan Wenyi, the fifth midwinter and the fifth manzhi, are studying in the academy."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xiayu paused, looked at Chen Bai and continued: "It was the Fifth Midwinter that asked Wei Mouxing to assassinate you. ”

"However, this is not the first time, the first time is the retinue of the fifth midwinter, which has been solved by me."

.….….…

Chen Bai and Wei Mou were very interested in the past that Jiang Xiayu said.

Especially the "Dynasty Breaking Plan", even Wei Mou has never heard of it.

Although when he was in Zhengshi County, Chen Bai also heard that Mr. Storyteller mentioned the relationship between the master and the eldest princess, but it was not as comprehensive as Jiang Xiayu.

.….….…

"I have nothing to do with Fifth Midwinter, so why would he want to kill me?" Chen Bai asked suspiciously.

Jiang Xiayu was a little bitter when he heard this, looked at Chen Bai and said, "So, my previous thoughts were wrong." ”

"There are differences in the country, and there are gaps in the races. It is rumored outside that Chen Bai has become a half-saint, and it is thought that it is related to this. ”

"Chen Bai, into the half-saint?" Although Qi Heng was a cultivator, it was the first time he heard this sentence, and his eyes when he looked at Chen Bai were full of doubt, shock, and even a little awe, after all, it involved the legendary demi-saint.

Hearing this, Chen Bai felt angry and funny, and said helplessly: "Where did this nonsense come from? ”

Jiang Xiayu looked at Chen Bai, his eyes were a little bright, he shook his head, and said solemnly: "It's not nonsense. ”

Jiang Xiayu's appearance didn't look like he was joking, Chen Bai looked down at himself when he heard this, and wondered in his heart: "Am I so heavy?" ”

I only heard Jiang Xiayu continue: "No one has ever been able to incorporate the power of the general into the body, but you can!" ”

"No one has ever been able to cause the Destiny Star to move, but you can!"

"Two years ago, there was a rumor that Bai Shiyi retired because of you, and now it makes sense."

.….….…

Qi Heng is a kind and kind person. Doing right, sitting upright is a fitting way to describe him.

However, he was now feeling panicked.

"The instrument of the powerful general, leading to the movement of the life star, the half-saint. Is this what I can know? ”

.….….…

Jiang Xiayu really didn't treat Qi Heng as an outsider, if Chen Bai was the hope of Lingshan, then Qi Heng was the hope of Jiang Xiayu. At least that's what Jiang Xiayu thinks.

"Triggering a change in the Destiny Star?" Chen Bai frowned and asked.

Yun Lijiang's weapon is indeed a little terrifying, and Chen Bai also knew this through the blind man and Hong Chiyu. However, he didn't know when he would trigger the Initiation Star?

Hearing Chen Bai ask this, Jiang Xiayu was not surprised at all, because he really couldn't sense the Destiny Star if he didn't have the strength to do so.

But soon Jiang Xiayu knew that he was wrong again!
