Chapter 253: A word can be pointed
"Shoot the arrows!"
With a loud shout, arrows flew out of the string and fell on the front and back of the wooden fence like a torrential rain, and many thieves fell to the ground screaming.
After a few rounds of arrow rain, Guan Shiping saw that the thieves in the village were demoralized and the lineup was scattered, so he immediately drew his sword and pointed at him: "Brothers, follow me!" ”
Guan Shiping took the lead, charging ahead, ignoring the arrows and stones, the sword light was swept away, the horse was chopped and smashed at the gate of the wall, and led the follow-up soldiers to rush into the cottage.
Qian Shaobai held the rainbow pearl high, the light was great, it seemed that there was another sun shining up and down the cottage, taking in the movement of the thieves, in addition to transmitting the sound to Guan Shiping, who commanded the soldiers in front, but also occasionally shot rainbow light, killing and injuring the thieves in the village.
The battle lasted for half a day, and the remaining thieves in the cottage begged to surrender, and Guan Shiping began to lead people to clean up the battlefield.
"Drag these recalcitrant people down and cut them down." Guan Shiping's face was covered with blood, pointed at several thieves and bandits, and scolded: "Fuck, you were still an official and soldier in the past, and you actually made trouble from thieves, and the crime is one more degree!" ”
Qian Shaobai looked at the several bandit leaders who were escorted down, and sighed and said: "I didn't expect that the White Dragon Village has been pacified, and this Prancing Horse Village is still stubbornly resisting. ”
Guan Shiping snorted coldly: "Most of the thieves in this Prancing Horse Village are officials and soldiers, and they rebel and cause chaos, which is more harmful than ordinary thieves!" ”
Qian Shaobai said helplessly: "The current situation is turbulent, the food and salary are insufficient, and there will inevitably be mutinies in the army." ”
"Shaobai, you don't have to pity them." Guan Shiping wiped away the blood on his face: "Who hasn't been gritting their teeth these days? How many times did we persuade them before we attacked? Even the soldiers who delivered the message had their heads cut off, so what are we polite about? ”
Qian Shaobai bowed slightly, Guan Shiping took off his heavy armor, and breathed a sigh of relief: "But fortunately, you killed the leader of the gang of village owners in Bailongzhai, and there are only three or two villages in Shiliang Twelve Villages who really want to contribute to pacifying, and the other villages have taken the initiative to disarm and surrender when they see that the situation is not good." ”
"It's not all my credit." Qian Shaobai said.
"That Huaiyu real person is willing to help deal with Hong Shangwu, which saves us a lot of trouble." Guan Shiping asked: "Such a master is actually in retreat in the back mountain of Bailongzhai?" You Shangjingzong are familiar with the history of each sect, do you know his origin? ”
He ...... The cultivation is profound, and I don't see his teacher's background. Qian Shaobai didn't tell others the truth that Xu Huaiyu was Zhao Xiao.
Guan Shiping said: "I hope he can end the life of Hong Shangwu, lest such bandits come back." It is because of Hong Shangwu that the surrounding counties and counties are not at peace. ”
Qian Shaobai was thinking about it, and a soldier ran over: "General, there is a person in the camp under the mountain who calls himself Xu Huaiyu and comes to ask to see Qian Beijia." ”
"Oh? And it really came! Guan Shiping patted Qian Shaobai on the shoulder: "Let's go, I'll go with you to meet this master, and I must thank you in person." If you can ask him for help, it will be a great achievement to recruit one more master from outside the world for the imperial court. ”
"Huh? This ......" Qian Shaobai froze in place, he didn't expect Zhao Xiao to go and return, and the fear in his heart was aroused again.
"What's wrong?" Guan Shiping looked at himself: "Thinking about it, I'm not very elegant when I'm covered in blood, and I'm worried that it will annoy people outside the world." You go down the mountain first, and I'll wash my face and rush over. ”
Qian Shaobai had no choice but to hold on to his face and not change, and when he came to the barracks at the foot of the mountain, he saw a man in a green robe, holding a wooden cane and wearing a short beard, describing his appearance as completely unfamiliar.
"You, you are ......" Qian Shaobai didn't dare to recognize each other for a while.
"Qian Daoyou, don't you remember Xu?" Zhao Xiao arched his hand and smiled: "At the beginning of Bailongzhai, it was you who helped Xu get out. ”
While talking, Qian Shaobai also heard Zhao Xiao's secret words: "My identity should not be revealed, Qian Daoyou must understand the truth." But you don't seem to reveal much to others? ”
Qian Shaobai was nervous, and Transyin responded: "Why are you back again?" ”
"Things should have a beginning and an end, I went to pursue Hong Shangwu, no matter what the result is, I should always let Qian Daoyou know." Zhao Xiao said with a smile.
Zhao Xiao came to find Qian Shaobai again, and he wanted to see if he spread the news of his exit from the world.
After saying goodbye to Zhaobo, Zhao Xiao secretly followed their Xiong State soldiers and horses all the way, observed their movements to suppress bandits and quell the chaos, and found that Qian Shaobai did not spread his news to outsiders.
Zhao Xiao also thought that maybe he could kill Qian Shaobai directly in order to cut off the news of his current life. But considering Qian Shaobai's background, if he was killed, it would be impossible for the Venerable Elder of Shangjing Sect to sit idly by.
When the two fought, they attracted Fang Yuanzi, one of the Four Immortal Princes, and he rashly killed Qian Shaobai, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be found out by the Four Immortal Princes.
Zhao Xiao is now decisive in killing, and he is almost unconcerned when he is alone, but he will not kill indiscriminately for no reason, even if Qian Shaobai is far from being his opponent.
At the beginning of the battle of Dilung Mountain, Zhao Huang also sensed that there was a master in Shangjingzong, which made Liang Tao hit hard by his mother with a divine sword. Therefore, in his opinion, now that the catastrophe is chaotic, Shangjingzong also has some responsibility.
However, the grievances in this are difficult to solve for a while, and Zhao Xiao does not intend to kill Tiancheng Mountain directly, not to mention that he can't do it with his current cultivation. It is better to be friends with Qian Shaobai for the time being, and take the opportunity to find the venerable elder of Jingzong in the future to ask the truth, even if he really wants to take revenge, Zhao Xiao does not want to implicate the innocent.
"Is this the real person of Huaiyu?"
At this time, Guan Shiping's voice came from outside the camp tent, he changed into a clean robe, bowed to Zhao Huang and said: "There is Guan Shiping, the guerrilla general of the Xiong Country, who has the help of real people this time, and I feel five inside!" ”
"General Guan is polite." Zhao Xiao nodded slightly, he still vaguely remembered that this person came to Huaxu with Qian Shaobai to spy on the military situation and buy fabrics, but he didn't expect that now he has become a general.
After each of them sat down, Guan Shiping asked, "I heard that Huaiyu Zhenren went to pursue Hong Shangwu, I don't know what the result is?" ”
"Hong Shangwu is dead, but unfortunately the mana was agitated at that time, and he was completely destroyed, and he didn't leave any evidence." Zhao Xiao said.
"It's enough to have Huaiyu Zhenren." Guan Shiping asked: "By the way, I heard Qian Beijia say, the real person only came out of the customs not long ago?" ”
"Not bad." Zhao Xiao nodded and said, "Xu was injured in his early years, and he had to escape into the cave to retreat and cultivate. A few days ago, I sensed that an outsider was intruding on the door of the cave, and I didn't want to pay attention to it, but I didn't expect that Hong Shangwu broke through the door and broke in, disturbing the quiet. Xu had no choice but to show up to respond. coincided with Qian Daoyou's help, if it weren't for him, I am afraid that Xu would have been poisoned by Hong Shangwu before he left the customs. ”
Qian Shaobai smiled on the side, Guan Shiping nodded and said: "Hong Shangwu gathered in the mountains and forests, and he should have been in charge of the surrounding counties and counties. However, after the Great Flood of the Zujiang River, the road was cut off, and the officials and soldiers of the imperial court failed to clear the bandits in time, but they were tired of Huaiyu Zhenren. On behalf of the local people, I have thanked Huaiyu Zhenren again. ”
"Xu is just doing it casually, General Guan is serious." Zhao Xiao waved his hand and said.
"Haven't asked Huaiyu Zhenren where is the fairy town? In the future, I will also bow and give thanks. Guan Shiping hurriedly said: "I have the Xiong Kingdom has always treated capable people with great courtesy, and with the high and profound cultivation of Huaiyu Zhenren, you can get a fish charm and be worshiped by the imperial court." ”
"Xu is a member of the Xuanpu Hall, but it's a pity that the sect is scattered and the dojo has fallen, and now it's just a loose cultivation in the rivers and lakes." Zhao Xiao said.
"Xuanpu Hall?" Guan Shiping looked at Qian Shaobai and gestured with his eyes to solve his doubts.
Qian Shaobai knew that Zhao Huang had the intention to hide his identity, so he said: "I remember that Xuanpu Hall is a sect located in Huaxu Kingdom, which was besieged by demons and demons decades ago, and the Lingtaixu Dojo fell because of this. Later, Chongxuanguan took action to expel demons and evils, and also took advantage of the situation to take possession of the dojo. ”
Zhao Xiao shook his head and sighed: "Alas, the Chongxuan Pavilion is powerful, and Xu has failed to ask for the dojo several times, but was injured by them. Xu was ashamed of his ancestor and had no choice but to flee from his hometown. ”
"Chongxuan Pavilion?" Guan Shiping asked: "Could it be that Huaiyu Zhenren still doesn't know the situation today?" ”
"The situation in the world?" Zhao Xiao pretended to be puzzled, and also peeked at Qian Shaobai: "Xu is just a person in the mountains and wilderness, he has been in retreat for more than ten years to recuperate from his injuries, and he knows nothing about the affairs of the world, so I ask General Guan to forgive me." ”
Guan Shiping was overjoyed: "Ten years ago, there was a sudden upheaval in the Dongsheng Capital of Huaxu Kingdom, and all the doors of Chongxuan Pavilion were destroyed!" ”
"Is that so?" Zhao Xiao stood up and exclaimed.
When Qian Shaobai saw Zhao Xiao's behavior like this, he understood that he didn't want to walk as a person in the past, and if he broke his true identity, he would be killed if he couldn't get his eyes turned around.
When he remembered the scene of Zhao Xiao and Hong Shangwu's fight, and the fact that he and Guan Shiping were defeated by each other almost in one face, Qian Shaobai couldn't muster any courage in his heart.
"Now Huaxu Kingdom can be described as falling apart and suffering from internal worries." Guan Shiping said again and again: "Chiyun raised troops from Cangwuling, occupying almost half of Huaxu Kingdom. And in the middle of the court, the Great Sima Luo Yi is monstrous, and it is rumored that he has the intention of abolishing it! If Huaiyu Zhenren wants to recapture the sect dojo, he doesn't have to go to the Chongxuan Pavilion anymore. ”
Zhao Xiao shook his head and sighed: "According to what General Guan said, now that Huaxu Kingdom is full of wars and soldiers, it is really not a quiet place, Xu is alone, what is the use of retaking the dojo?" ”
Guan Shiping listened to Qian Shaobai's relay, and he had long understood Xu Huaiyu's skills, such a master in the world should make good friends, if he can win over to serve in the army, he can not only help the bandits and rebels, but also rely on this person to expand the territory in the future.
"Huaiyu Zhenren's words are wrong." Guan Shiping said: "We have always respected the immortal family in the Xiong Kingdom, and as long as the sects abide by the laws of the imperial court, they can keep the inheritance endless. Unlike that Huaxu Kingdom, Liang Tao was allowed to invade the sect and seize the dojo. ”
"What does General Guan mean by this?" Zhao Xiao asked.
"I feel that Hua Xu's national qi is about to run out, Huaiyu Zhenren might as well stay in Xiong Guo for the time being, and assist the imperial army in the coming day to level the eastern territory, and Huaiyu Zhenren can logically take back the dojo, reopen the sect, and recruit disciples."
If Zhao Huang is really a casual cultivator, this proposal can be described as very generous. After all, Zhao Xiao is a homeless and countryless person at the moment, and if he appears in Huaxu Kingdom, there are many people who want to kill him. However, even so, Zhao Xiao was unwilling to assist Youxiong to conquer Huaxu.
"General Guan is kind, Xu understands it." Zhao Xiao said: "As the years have passed, Xu has long been disheartened. Everything rises and falls, and some things cannot be forced. ”
Guan Shiping failed to achieve his goal, so he had to show Qian Shaobai again. But Qian Shaobai knows the inside story and understands that some things can't be persuaded at all.
"Huaiyu is really noble, and he is so quiet, I don't want to act rashly." Qian Shaobai didn't believe it when he said this: "It's just that if there is chaos and disasters all over the world today, if you can't calm the chaos, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a place to cultivate." Wasn't Huaiyu Zhenren disturbed by Hong Shangwu and others? ”
Zhao Xiao stared back at Qian Shaobai, and asked in a solemn tone: "Does Qian Daoyou have the heart to calm the chaos in the world?" ”
Qian Shaobai didn't dare to look directly at the other party, and replied with a slight cringe: "How can I do such a thing as pacifying the world?" The affairs of the world are determined by the people of the world, and I am just doing my best. ”
When Zhao Xiao heard this, he was silent for a long time, he felt that after creating a human dao country in the future, with boundless mana in hand, he would be able to calm the chaos in the world. Looking back now, this is really wishful thinking.
Where is the wish of peace in the world and no more strife, which will be realized after the creation of the Taoist kingdom on earth? Teacher Zhang Duanjing once said that there is no real foundation for Taoism in the world, and it is a false talk.
Zhao Xiao's extensive distribution of mandalas, so that Liang Tao can instigate the qi of heaven and earth, which is not necessarily related to whether the Taoist country in the world can be created and whether the world can be stable in the future.
It is better to say that Zhao Xiao and Liang Tao both bet on whether they can ascend to the Tao of Enlightenment or not, and once they fail, they will die. This kind of reversal and confusion has doomed Zhao Xiao and Liang Tao to walk on the wrong path from the beginning, and they are so wrong that they don't know it.
"The affairs of the world are determined by the people of the world...... Well said, well said! Zhao Xiao nodded deeply, he was greatly inspired, and asked, "Did Qian Daoyou comprehend this sentence by himself?" ”
Qian Shaobai shook his head: "It's the words of the head of Shangjing Sect." ”
Previously, when he was cultivating in Tiancheng Mountain, Qian Shaobai had the honor of serving Han Yuanzi, the head of the family, for a period of time, and occasionally heard him talk to the Four Immortals about the drastic changes in Dongshengdu.
During the period, when it came to Liang Tao and Zhao Xiao, the four immortals expressed their opinions - Xuan Tu Gong thought that Liang and Zhao were mad and troubled; Xia Huanggong felt that their skills were profound, and there were things worth seeing; Fang Yuanzi lamented that Zhao Xiao was proficient in scientific rituals and rituals, but he could not be used by the bear country; Yi Zhenzi simply regarded Liang Zhao as an enemy, and it was a blessing that they died.
Han Yuanzi was noncommittal about this, but just said the words "The world is decided".
Qian Shaobai thought about it for a long time, and felt that the words of the head of the house were quite profound, but he couldn't fully understand it for a while, and what he said to Zhao Xiao now was just a trick.
It's just that he didn't expect that Zhao Xiao seemed to be greatly touched by these words, and he didn't know what he had in mind.
"Now I understand what it means to be a little bit of grace." Zhao Xiao's eyebrows were soothing, he smiled softly, and said: "Qian Daoyou, I really have no intention of helping other countries in the matter of conquest. But since you have the heart to calm the chaos in this world, start from the present. Aren't you going to sweep away the thieves and demons in the neighborhood? Xu can help you for a while. ”
