Chapter 368: Different Ways Don't Conspire with Each Other
Gu Shen and King Huai were-for-tat, their eyes collided, and there seemed to be wisps of electricity growing in the void, and the atmosphere here suddenly became a little tense.
The Huai King at this moment is really very different from the past, if the previous Huai King was gentle and restrained, the current Huai King is domineering and wild.
That kind of eyes, staring and rebellious, like a king overlooking the world.
This couldn't help but make Gu Shen a little puzzled in his heart, the Huai King he knew before, or the Huai King known to everyone in the world, or the current Huai King, which one is the real Huai King?
Or is it that the previous King Huai has been disguising himself all along?
Gu Shen didn't know about this.
King Huai's change was really too big, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Gu Shen would have been a little incredulous.
But at this time, Gu Shen thought that King Huai would be angry, but who would have thought that the first prince of Great Xia smiled faintly and dissolved the tense atmosphere between the two of them invisibly.
"Gu Shen, this king cherishes talents, you are a rare demon in Kyushu, loyal to Great Xia, and have made a lot of contributions, this king doesn't want you to have an accident, in fact, it is also for your safety and for the sake of Great Xia."
Gu Shen's expression was calm, and he said, "So, I still have to thank the prince?" ”
King Huai shook his head slightly, and said: "You don't have to thank me, I know that you have misunderstood me now, one day, you will understand my good intentions, Great Xia now does not have the ability to be the enemy of the world, and can no longer continue to suppress the world, the necessary restraint and forbearance are indispensable, and I also hope that you can take this into account." ”
Gu Shen stood up, Yuan Yu Yuezhi, and said: "I only know that the more you retreat, the more forbearance you have, it will only make your opponent more despised, causing the opponent to press forward step by step, and in the end, Great Xia will be forced into a corner by all parties, and, with the vision of the prince, I don't think that as long as Great Xia retreats and forbears, the barbarians, Dayuan, and the Liuhe Divine Sect will not target Great Xia, right?" ”
"All this, this king has his own way to deal with it, I know that you want to unite the forces of the world to fight against the catastrophe, this is also the king's idea, you and I actually have the same idea, but the way of doing things is different, my method, compared to yours, is more secure, isn't it? You know, it's easy to break if it's too rigid. King Huai said.
"Please forgive me for not being able to agree with the prince's thoughts, it is easy to break if it is too rigid, but it is too soft, but it will accelerate your own destruction, make the enemy think that you can be bullied, and you will continue to test the bottom line of Great Xia, is it possible that the bottom line of Great Xia will fall again and again because of this?" Gu Shen looked solemn and questioned King Huai.
"You're still too young to understand what I'm doing right now." King Huai shook his head and didn't explain too much.
Gu Shen said: "The Tao is not the same, Lord Wang, farewell!" ”
After saying this, Gu Shen didn't give King Huai another chance to speak, but turned around and left.
It's just that before leaving, Gu Shen's words came into the ears of King Huai.
"Woe to my family, no matter who dares to touch my second uncle's family, Gu Shen will definitely fight with him!"
Hearing this, King Huai's eyes narrowed slightly, and a fist hidden in his sleeve robe suddenly clenched, and then let go, and after a few times, he finally regained his calm.
"Well, forgive you for your outstanding talent, I will give you another period of time, if you are still so bent on going your own way, it is no wonder that this king is hot." King Huai's tone was indifferent, and his gaze stared straight at the direction in which Gu Shen had left.
Outside the palace hall, Mr. Gongsun was waiting here, and when he saw Gu Shen coming out and leaving directly, Mr. Gongsun knew that the two should have collapsed.
"Alas......" sighed slightly in his heart, Mr. Gongsun did not enter, but was stationed here.
King Huai is indeed becoming more and more aggressive.
After leaving the Huai Wang's Mansion, Gu Shen's heart was a little heavy, he didn't know how the Huai King could become like this, such a Huai King was obviously not good news for today's Great Xia.
Let him apologize to the Six Holy Lands, and then make compromises, how is this possible? This is no different from killing Gu Shen, Gu Shen will not agree.
Besides, if Gu Shen agreed to King Huai this time, then there must be a second and third time, and blindly forbearance can really be exchanged for peace?
Gu Shen didn't think so.
True peace is won by strong strength, and only when the strength is strong enough to deter the world will it win the respect of others.
Joining forces and engaging in some conspiracies, in a world like Kyushu, where force is supreme, it is absolutely difficult to get into the hall of elegance, and it is not the best solution.
As Gu Shen and King Huai said, although both of them want to unify the forces in Kyushu, they use completely different methods, and since their paths are different, there is naturally no need to talk.
As for the second uncle's family, Gu Shen believed that with Qin Wu, the deputy commander of the Jingtian Division, and the supervisor of Qin Tianjian, even if he left Tiandu to go on a mission, these two would definitely help him keep the second uncle's family.
Besides, at least in the short term, King Huai will not tear his face with Gu Shen.
After all, Gu Shen is no longer a small person now, and whoever wants to move him has to weigh it.
"Da Lang is back."
At this time, unconsciously, Gu Shen had already returned to Gu's mansion, and Uncle Zhang, the porter, was surprised when he saw Gu Shen coming back.
Since coming to this world, Gu Shen has been very busy, and he has very little time at home, but because what he did caused a sensation in the world, the people of the entire Tiandu know him, and these people in the family naturally know Gu Shen's deeds, which makes them proud and proud.
The more famous Gu Shen is, the more people will come to visit Gu Mansion, after all, Gu Shen has no parents, only the three families of his second uncle Gu Chengfeng and his aunt Xu Qing'e and his sister Gu Qingyan, so many famous families in Tiandu want to show favor to the second uncle's family, and then climb the relationship with Gu Shen.
After all, today's Gu Shen is not qualified to visit in person.
It is precisely because of this that even the status of these subordinates of Gu Fu is rising, no matter where they go to the heavenly capital, they can hold their heads high, and even when they buy vegetables in the market, they will report the name of Gu Mansion, and there will be many hawkers who are extremely enthusiastic and give a lot of things.
"Uncle Zhang."
Although Gu Shen's fame is growing day by day, his temperament is not arrogant, and he is still as at the beginning, after saying hello to the porter Uncle Zhang, he walked into the Gu Mansion.
"Madam, Miss, Dalang is back." After the maid Xiaoyu saw Gu Shen coming back, she hurriedly informed Xu Qing'e and Gu Qingyan.
Hearing the news of Gu Shen's return, the mother and daughter ran out with a surprised face, and Aunt Xu Qing'e said, "Da Lang, how long are you going to stay at home when you come back this time?" ”
"I should be staying a few more days this time." Gu Shen smiled, and after returning to the Gu Mansion, his body and mind also relaxed.
In the evening, the second uncle returned, and at Gu Chengfeng's strong request, the uncle and nephew had a good drink, and unsurprisingly, Gu Chengfeng was drunk.
His eyes were foggy, full of alcohol, and he kept muttering, what "Gu Shen has a future", "He has an explanation for Gu Shen's parents" and "Gu Shenguang's ancestors" and other words, Xu Qing'e frowned for a while, and glanced at her husband several times angrily.
Even Gu Qingyan was a little helpless, because every time she drank too much, Gu Chengfeng would say this, and the same was true when she was alone, back and forth with just those words, and the mother and daughter were tired of hearing them.
Seeing this warm scene, Gu Shen remembered what King Huai said during the day, and his eyes couldn't help but become slightly cold.
He will never allow anyone to dare to touch his family, whoever moves, who dies!
No matter what kind of identity this person has, even if he is the co-master of the world, it is the same!
"Da Lang, if you are tired, go back to your room early to rest." At this time, Aunt Xu Qing'e looked at Gu Shen and said softly.
"Okay, I'll send the second uncle back too." Gu Shen said, and he was about to help his second uncle Gu Chengfeng get up.
"No, no, he likes to drink so much, let him stay here for the night." Aunt Xu Qing'e glanced at Gu Chengfeng.
"This ......" Gu Shen hesitated for a while.
Gu Qingyan's eyebrows were picturesque, her lips opened slightly, and she said with a chuckle: "Don't worry, big brother, this is not the first time, every time my father drinks too much, my mother won't let him go to bed." ”
When Gu Shen heard this, he immediately laughed dumbly, anyway, the second uncle is also a martial artist, although his cultivation is not strong, he will not get sick if he sleeps here, so Gu Shen also listened to his aunt's words.
Subsequently, Aunt Xu Qing'e and sister Gu Qingyan's mother and daughter opened one after another, and Gu Shen also went back to the room to rest.
As for the second uncle Gu Chengfeng, after drinking too much, he had already fallen asleep on the table.
In the next period of time, because of a series of things that Gu Shen had done in Longhu Mountain before, the world fell into a period of calm, and Gu Shen was also able to be at peace, spending a slightly longer period of time in Gu Mansion, which was equivalent to a small long vacation.
Soon, the New Year came, on this day, the sky fell like goose feathers of snow, the streets of Tiandu were lit up, and the faces of the people were full of joy.
Another year passed peacefully, and in Tiandu City, there were firecrackers from time to time.
At this moment, Gu Shen followed his sister Gu Qingyan's side, treating himself as a guard, guarding Gu Qingyan's side.
Gu Qingyan was wearing a coat made of ferrets, with her delicate and beautiful facial features and good figure, she looked very noble, like a princess in the palace, and was setting off fireworks with the maid Xiaoyu not far away.
Gu Shen stood aside and watched this scene, despite the cold weather, he was still wearing a dark robe, his figure was tall and slender, standing here like an ancient pine.
During this period of time, the world was calm, and demons and ghosts rarely appeared, so he stayed away from killing, blended into the red dust, and temporarily let go of all the disturbances of the outside world.
And his state of mind has also become much calmer than before, faintly, Gu Shen feels that his thoughts are becoming more and more pure, and his spiritual strength has also improved slightly.
"It's too much, the road of martial arts, after all, still pays attention to one piece and one relaxation."
Gu Shen sighed lightly, he had been too tight before, and it was the first time since he came to Kyushu that he had spent such a peaceful time.
At this moment, Gu Shen's heart is very peaceful, and the evil qi in his heart has been exhausted, and his mind is like a spiritual platform, a mirror, and a lot of things have been reflected during this time.
"Staying away from strife, blending into the red dust, and experiencing the various states of the world is not necessarily a method of cultivation." Gu Shen whispered, it has been recorded in ancient books that in ancient times in Kyushu, there were many warriors who watched the mountains and rivers and the earth, and watched the red dust, and they could enter the realm as well.
Even once an epiphany, his cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, and it was not unheard of that he had broken through multiple realms in one day.
As Gu Shen said, there are many ways to practice, and if you are too tight, you will eventually bring too much pressure to yourself, and in this state, it is still very difficult to make your body and mind unique, clear and transparent, and condense your divine thoughts.
"It's no wonder that the six holy places will let their descendants go down the mountain every once in a while, and they will indeed have a lot of different perceptions in it."
Soon, the year passed, and not long after, Gu Shen ushered in his birthday, and his age changed from twenty-two years old to twenty-three.
So far, he has been in this world for two years.
On the day when Gu Shen was twenty-three years old, the world changed greatly, and Kyushu, which had been calm for a while, also made waves again.
