"Don't be ashamed." After the two of them left, Mr. Jingming took the initiative to comfort Zhao Xiao: "We Chiyun have all experienced the catastrophe of annihilation, and it is difficult to trust the imperial court, I hope you can understand." ”

Zhao Xiao arched his hand and replied: "The juniors naturally don't dare to ask for extravagance, but I just hope that the three elders will know, and the juniors don't want Chiyundu to waste their enthusiasm." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Mr. Jingming is quite patient.

"Please forgive the juniors for offending, where will Chiyundu go in the future?" Zhao Huang asked: "Although Chiyundu now occupies half of Huaxu Kingdom, the younger generations have come all the way, but they have seen that the fields are barren, the city is dilapidated, and most of the people are hungry. After all, this is not a long-term solution. ”

Mr. Jingming raised his hand to caress the blindfold and said with a smile: "We are not having a good time here, but the north is not necessarily rich, and now we are gritting our teeth and stiffening each other." And...... It's also about you. ”

"Is it because of the drastic changes in Dongshengdu?" Zhao Xiao asked.

Mr. Jingming nodded and said: "The earth's veins are turbulent and turbid, and in addition to causing landslides and earth cracks, there are also many disasters that are invisible to the naked eye. Originally, the southern counties of Huaxu Kingdom were fertile and creamy lands, but in recent years, the grain and grass have withered, and some places have failed to harvest year after year. And for the sake of the soldiers in front, and the people have to cut down on food and clothing, Chiyundu is indeed struggling to survive at present. ”

Zhao Xiao looked around, this Bihu Manor, which once belonged to Chu Mengchun, is now owned by the three elders of Chiyun, but there are only a few houses left, and even the bricks and stones that built the courtyard wall have been removed and used.

Although now Chiyundu has walked out of Cangwuling, captured several counties in the south of Huaxu Kingdom, and his power has increased greatly, but after the early triumphant advance, there have been few achievements in recent years, and he has fallen into a long-term confrontation, and immediately showed a decline.

In particular, Huaxu Kingdom has suffered the most disasters, and Chiyun can be said to be a clever woman who is difficult to cook without rice, no matter how the three elders arrange the scheduling, the disciples are pragmatic and reliable, and it is inevitable to sit in the city of sorrow.

In fact, Zhao Xiao knew that the situation of Hua Xu was not much better, but this protracted confrontation constantly consumed manpower and material resources, making both sides fall into a situation where there was no way to retreat, and the suffering of the people naturally became more and more serious.

"I might be able to help Chiyundu." Zhao Xiao thought for a moment and made a decision: "Before I visited the three elders, I went to the Lingtai Ruins of the Xuanpu Hall Dojo, which is still a blessed land outside the world, and the Lingpu medicine field is vast. ”

Mr. Jing Ming said: "What we need now is not a blessed land of immortals. ”

"I know." Zhao Xiao said: "But if I evacuate the blessed land that has been nurtured for thousands of years in Lingtai Ruins, so as to nourish the earth, it may be able to rejuvenate the grass and trees and seedlings, and break the misfortune of withering and decaying." ”

Mr. Jingming was stunned for a while, and only after a long time did he say: "Do you know how much burden it is to destroy a blessed land of immortals?" Aren't you afraid of being retaliated by the immortals? ”

"My mother is a disciple of Xuanpu Hall, and I also have the inheritance of the Xuanpu Jade Book. If there is a bearing on it, I deserve it. Zhao Xiao stroked the jade tree scepter on the side, and showed his mana slightly, and the blue light swept around, and new sprouts sprouted from the rotten wood that fell to the ground.

Mr. Jingming couldn't see, but it didn't prevent him from clearly sensing the vitality around him: "You have become a fetal immortal, no wonder you can come up with this method." ”

Zhao Xiao also said: "In addition, there is no lack of fertile grass and trees in the inheritance of Xuanputang, and I can hand over all of them to Chiyundu, even if it can't be harvested, at least it is conducive to farming." And ......"

"And as long as Chiyun can be self-sufficient, he will be more confident in front of the left minister of the bear country, and he will not be controlled by the other party with soldiers, armor, grain and grass, right?" Mr. Jingming asked.

Zhao Huang bowed slightly, and Mr. Jingming sighed lightly: "You have Xiong Guozuo to do things for others, but you help us Chiyun find a way, aren't you afraid that you won't be able to make a difference after you go back?" ”

"I'm not a subordinate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, He Qingchen also understands this, we just work together for mutual benefit." Zhao Xiao then added: "It's just that I have worked with He Qingchen for a few days, and I have also found that this person has a far-sighted mind, and the three elders may wish to talk to him first, and then decide whether to accept the help of the bear country." ”

Mr. Jingming smiled rarely: "It seems that the pattern of Huaxu Kingdom is too small, and it can't accommodate you, the successor of the praise official, after all." ”

"My seniors made fun of me." Zhao Xiao replied: "After going through so many things, I gradually understand that if the rituals and rituals inherited by the Praise Officer cannot be widely taught and calm people's hearts, it will be illegal after all, let alone the Great Dao. But if the world is chaotic and the war is still raging, there is no way to start all this. ”

Mr. Jingming recalled: "Back then, the three of us experienced the disaster of the collapse of the sect, and watched the common people suffer from misery, so we made a joint vow not to seek immortal immortality and to ensure the stability of all people, in order to create a peaceful world." But when it came time to do things, it was difficult. Even the Immortal Patriarch, who was disgusted by us, specially named us and others. ”

"Is that so?" Zhao Xiao was surprised, and couldn't help but think that Han Yuanzi had said that Chiyundu was acting now, maybe he was secretly conspiring with the Heavenly Immortal Family, but he didn't expect him to really say it.

Mr. Jingming raised his hand and pressed the blindfold: "At that time, Chiyun suffered drastic changes, and it was a very critical juncture, I happened to see the Danling Fire Mansion opened by the Patriarch Cave Dan Yuanjun when I was recuperating from my injuries and pranayama.

And because this pair of eyeballs was not a mortal fetus, they took out of their own eyes, turned into a flame essence and entered the veins of Cangwuling, becoming the fundamental spiritual text that operated the method of sealing mountains and summoning clouds, thus resisting the repeated attacks of Liang Tao and Hua Xu Guo. ”

Mr. Jing Ming recounted the past, when the clouds were light and the waves were not alarming, although Zhao Huang had not experienced it himself, he could also imagine how dangerous and thrilling the situation was at that time.

However, hearing Mr. Jingming's mention of Dongdan Yuanjun, Zhao Xiao's heart moved, because Ling Xiao once claimed to have discussed with Dongdan Yuanjun, and he could judge through the Fu Seal that the inheritance of Chiyundu did indeed originate from this ancient immortal.

"The predecessors are disgusted with the ancestor of the Immortal Family, but they can still be enlightened by the Immortal Family?" Zhao Xiao was puzzled.

"Unbelievable, right?" Mr. Jingming sighed: "Huaiming didn't believe it at the beginning, but I knew very well that I really saw the Danling Fire Mansion, which was a realm where my own cultivation foundation and the origin of my wish were incomparably compatible.

It can't even be simply said that Dongdan Yuanjun made a move, but at that moment I cultivated to enter the realm, and I sensed each other with the Danling Fire Mansion, and my eyes were separated from the **mortal fetus, and turned into fire refining true text. We are disgusted with our ancestors, but do we know that we are not trapped in a cage? ”

Mr. Jingming's comprehension was unique, but it also inspired Zhao Xiao, and he couldn't help but say: "Perhaps...... Dongdan Yuanjun didn't care whether the disciples of the sect were disgusted with the patriarch, but the predecessors cultivated to enter the realm and the Dao heart was clear, and they were even more liked by the patriarch of the immortal family. ”

"It's good that you understand that." Mr. Jingming said: "When we were disgusted with the immortal family and stayed away from the immortal path, we felt that the ancestor was coldly watching the suffering of the world and doing nothing, and allowed Chiyun Mountain to collapse and decay. But isn't this kind of laziness and laxity? Could it be that all the sufferings in the world can only be solved by relying on the masters of the immortal family?

To put it mildly, the ancestor of the immortal family has no debt to all living beings in the world, and the formula has been passed on to the world, and how much comprehension depends on his ability. If you are lucky enough to ascend to become an immortal, you will have your own cave heaven to guide you, and you will enjoy eternal life and long-term vision, and the ancestor of the immortal family does not have to and will not help the disciples to solve all the difficulties.

In a big way, sentient beings are based on the world, and they have to face all kinds of worldly things, blindly avoiding and retreating, which is useless, and even the matter of disgusting the ancestor of the immortal family is meaningless. On the contrary, it is only when we make a wish that we will find a turnaround, and our own cultivation will also make a breakthrough in the process. ”

After hearing this, Zhao Xiao got up and bowed down: "The younger generation has been taught." ”

"When you're older, you're used to being verbose." Mr. Jingming laughed at himself and said: "Don't blame Huaiming and them, now the war is presided over by the two of them, even if the cultivation is high, they feel deeply clumsy." But they don't get carried away and know what to do. ”

"Did the seniors agree?" Zhao Xiao asked.

"I wouldn't say that." Mr. Jingming shook his head: "Actually, there is a matter of Xiong Guo sending people to solicit them, and I have foreseen it. Last year, due to the lack of food, many people fled to the country of Youxiong, and they were also registered and settled. If I had the left minister of the bear country, I would also be eyeing Chiyundu. ”

Zhao Huang said: "The younger generation thinks that no matter whether the Xiong Country is in charge of state affairs or not, because it is located in the Middle Earth, facing the Quartet, even if it is trying to protect itself, it is impossible to stick to it all the year round, and only when Kunlun Continent is reunified can it be peaceful for a long time." Compared with others, the younger generation thinks He Qingchen can do better. ”

"Since the scourge of war is inevitable after all, then try to minimize casualties, I understand what you mean." Mr. Jingming said: "In this way, you go to Lingtai Market first, I will discuss it with the two junior disciples, and no matter what the result is, I will give you an answer." ”

"Juniors get it." Zhao Xiao didn't force it anymore, and saluted again.

After Zhao Huang left, Mr. Jingming said, "Did you hear what he said?" ”

Mr. Huaiming appeared and walked out, still with anger on his face: "This Zhao Xiao, in order to revive the inheritance of the praise official, actually chose to take refuge in Youxiong Country. If Zhang Duanjing and his father knew, I am afraid they would be angry! ”

"Why do you have to talk angry?" Mr. Zhan Ming said: "We are all people who have experienced the troubled times and disasters, and we have seen too many people who have deviated from their origins and joined the door separately. In such a world, we must not allow others to be foolish and loyal regardless of right and wrong. What's more, now Zhao Huang is no longer tolerated by Huaxu Kingdom, if he doesn't vote for the Bear Country, where else can he go? ”

"I said, even if he retreats from the world and cultivates from now on, it's good! Zhang Duanjing arranged for Duan Zhao to save him, because he didn't want Zhao Huang to get involved in the dispute again! Mr. Huaiming said in a deep voice.

"With Zhao Xiao's experience, it is foolish to expect him to return to seclusion and cultivation." Mr. Jing Ming was concise: "Even if Zhang Duanjing and Liang Tao are dead, Zhao Huang still has too many worries in his heart. ”

Mr. Zhan Ming asked, "Senior brother, is it possible that you agree with Zhao Xiao's statement?" ”

"I'm not going to make judgments." Mr. Jingming has the most profound realm among the three elders, and I heard him say: "But I am not the one who presides over the war after all, and it is up to me whether I really want to deal with the bear country." ”

"I'm not in favor of attaching the Bear Country, at least not now." Mr. Huaiming said.

Seeing that the junior brother with the most violent temper was vaguely relieved, Mr. Zhan Ming was surprised: "Listen to what you mean, is it possible that you plan to return to the bear country in the future?" ”

"Now everything is difficult in Chiyundu, if you are funded by the bear country, the soldiers and the money and food, our lifeline is like being pinched by the other party." Mr. Huaiming began to analyze the situation: "What's more, if we can't defeat Huaxu Kingdom, Youxiong Country may be able to take advantage of this to send troops and annex Chiyundu in the name of help, so that we will completely lose room for maneuver." ”

Mr. Zhan Ming bowed slightly, and Mr. Huai Ming continued: "Since ancient times, there has never been a defeated and weak army that can act according to its own will. He Qingchen saw that the red clouds were gradually falling, and thought that he could succeed, so I wanted to do the opposite. Only Chiyun is strong enough to withstand the price of the bear country in the future. ”

In fact, the three elders of Chiyun are well aware of the current situation, Chiyun does not have the ability and background to compete in the world, they gather the displaced people, and the division of one side is the limit, in the face of such a behemoth as the bear country, even if they resist to the end, the best result is that the three elders and a few disciples are only spared, and they can't keep the territory they currently control.

But at that time, Chiyun existed in name only. No one wants to see this result, and even has to experience extremely tragic killings. In the past, the three elders of Chiyun vowed to ensure the stability of the people, and if the situation was allowed to continue to deteriorate, Daoji's wish would also be shaken.

"In this way, the matter of Xiong Guo's funding of soldiers' money and food, in the eyes of Hua Xu Guo, has a clear position and no way to turn around." Mr. Zhan Ming was skeptical: "I'm more worried about whether the Youxiong Kingdom will also fund the Huaxu Kingdom, so that our two sides will consume each other, and then they will annex Kunlun Dongtu in one fell swoop." ”

Mr. Huaiming said: "Yes, it is possible, but I also have a way to deal with it. ”

"What are you going to do?" Mr. Jingming seemed to have a hunch.

"The way to cut off betting on both sides of the bear country is to completely break the room for maneuver." Mr. Huaiming said: "Isn't Zhao Huang a big official of the Xiong Kingdom now? Let him come forward to defeat the monks of Huaxu Kingdom, I think that He Qingchen has something to say! ”

Mr. Zhan Ming was taken aback: "Are you going to drag Zhao Huang into the water?" ”

"He came to be a lobbyist for He Qingchen, and he was already in the water!" Mr. Huaiming snorted coldly: "It just so happens that Hua Xu Guo didn't invite a master from the East China Sea?" Let Zhao Xiao deal with it, and if this matter is done, there will be a follow-up talk! ”

"It's a vote." Mr. Zhan Ming sighed helplessly: "He has already promised to help in Lingtai Market, so don't force him too much." ”

"I'm saving him!" Mr. Huaiming stomped his feet angrily and said: "Zhao Huang lost his way out at the beginning, so he had to work hard in Dilung Mountain. Our Chiyun is strong, not only to bargain with He Qingchen, but also to let Zhao Huang have no worries, and make those guys who are two-faced and three-faced have something to fear! ”

"Senior brother, you......" Mr. Jing Ming said with a smile: "I obviously value Zhao Huang so much, but I refuse to give him a good face." ”

"That's it!" Mr. Huaiming waved his hand: "I still have to arrange manpower, you go and discuss this matter with Zhao Xiao!" ”
