The man's face was pale, he looked back at the box that suddenly appeared behind him, felt the cold breath on his back, and paused.

Zhao Changlong held the long sword in his hand and pressed it against his back.

"I have a chance to live, I don't know if adults are willing to cherish it?" Lu Gong chuckled.

Behind him, the roar of the post station had stopped.

The four wolf demons are just four wolf demons, and they are not vulnerable at all in front of the golden-armored giants who have also reached the realm of exorcism.

At this time, it had been smashed into powder, and it was impossible to find it.

Lu Lin struggled to squeeze out a smile. "Your Excellency has something to say."

"Captain of Wuling Mansion, right? I just want to know who told the Captain to do this! Lu Gong said softly.

Lu Lin's body trembled slightly, and he took a deep breath and said, "I said, Your Excellency can let me go?" ”

"Of course. You're a little lieutenant, and you don't pose much of a threat to us! Lu Gong said with a smile.

Lu Lin's face sank, hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Okay! Regarding Master Zhang's itinerary, it was conveyed by someone from above! ”

"Above?"

"That's right! The history of the Wuling Mansion Thorn. ”

"You can go!" Lu Gong said lightly.

"Are you sure?" The big man looked at Lu Gong, but he didn't see anything unusual, he cautiously jumped off the carriage, tried to take a few steps forward, and found that the long sword did not follow, so he immediately quickened his pace and ran away.

Lu Gong simply asked Zhao Changlong to drive back to the post station.

At this time, the post station was in ruins, not to mention the post men and soldiers, and there was no place to stay.

Zhang Yizhi followed Zhao Zhen out.

Lu Gong said the news that he had just asked from Lu Lin's mouth.

Zhang Yizhi frowned: "In order to personally take charge of the world's soldiers and horses, Your Majesty transferred all the elites from various places to camp around Kyoto, and built an extremely large forbidden army. Today's local armies are mostly empty shells, and the history of assassination is just a fictitious title of prestige and military merit; After all, he was an envoy appointed by Kyoto. It seems that there are indeed people in Beijing who want me to die on the road. ”

In the end, the old man's gaze was already cold.

"Can Elder Zhang guess who it is?" Lu Gong asked.

Zhang Yizhi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Not to mention that those radicals already hate me to the core, I'm afraid that even Your Majesty can't go back!" ”

When it comes to the current emperor, Lu Gong can't help but be a little curious.

Especially after seeing that golden body, Lu Gong had an inexplicable awe of it. Through the corner opened by Qinglu, Lu Gong could almost conclude that the human emperor in her mouth was in the depths of the palace.

It's just that the current saint or someone else is not sure for the time being.

As for the current emperor, the prime minister in front of him is definitely the most familiar.

"I don't know what kind of person the saint is today?"

"Don't reproach!" Zhang Yizhi shook his head and directly bypassed the topic.

"Why didn't you kill that captain?" Zhang Yizhi asked. "You know, this is tantamount to letting the tiger go back to the mountain!"

Lu Gong smiled: "He really doesn't pose any threat to us, I'm telling the truth about this." The reason why I let him go was that I wanted him to report the news. With what they know about me, they will definitely think that we will come to the door for revenge. ”

"Don't you want to?" Zhang Yizhi asked.

Lu Gong smiled: "Yes, but I won't do this, and I won't be as impulsive as before." ”

"Why?" Zhang Yizhi is curious.

"As I said, my only mission this time is to keep you safe, and everything else is secondary. Secondly, I gained a lot from this trip to Kyoto. Someone used their life to let me see the world clearly and know what I was fighting for. This world is not something that I can change by killing a few corrupt officials and beheading a few city gods. Even if I kill all the corrupt officials of the entire Hua Dynasty and replace all the city gods, it will still be to no avail. ”

"What do you think?" Zhang Yizhi's eyes suddenly swelled.

Lu Gong shook his head: "I haven't figured it out yet." I saw the source of it all, but it was too powerful. Even an ancient god can't solve it, what can I do with a small box? With my current strength, in front of him, I can't even count as ants. ”

Thinking of Qinglu's death, Lu Gong couldn't help but be a little discouraged.

Zhang Yizhi suddenly stretched out his hand and gently pressed it on Lu Gong's plank, revealing a hint of a smile. "No wonder they'll let you protect me, now I finally understand!"

Lu Gong was puzzled: "What does Elder Zhang understand?" ”

Zhang Yizhi smiled, but did not say it explicitly. "Don't worry. Just remember that you're not alone! In the past thousands of years, you and I are not the only people who have seen through the essence, they have gone forward and used their lives to show us the way forward. We just have to move on. ”

"The road ahead? Where is the road ahead? Lu Gong was inevitably bitter in his heart.

At least for now, he doesn't see any hope.

"Let's go!" Zhang Yizhi had already gotten into the carriage and whipped away.

Lu Gong landed on the carriage and couldn't help but be silent.

The next few days went very smoothly again. Lu Gong always had the illusion that after that time at the post station, the old man's state suddenly got better again.

He was already depressed, as if he had a second spring, and the red light on his face never dissipated, and he sang from time to time along the way, and his voice was full of joy.

Lu Gong couldn't understand this change in him, but what he could feel was that Zhang Yizhi's attitude towards himself had completely changed.

Or rather, overnight, the old man seems to have found sustenance. It's like an old man who is about to pass away, and suddenly lets go of his heart knot.

The road was smooth, and after changing the route, the carriage did not experience any accidents. This made Lu Gong wonder if those who were secretly making ghosts had also given up.

Day after day, when a cool breeze of autumn blew and soaked people's moods, Lü Gong saw a majestic city standing on the plain from afar.

Ahead, the old man's whip speed was also significantly faster.

"Lu Gong, Nanlin is coming soon!" Zhang Yizhi's face was quite excited, completely like a wanderer who had been away from home for many years, re-stepping on his homeland.

It's finally done!

The stone on Lu Gong's chest settled slightly, but he saw that the old man did not enter the city directly, but turned his horse's head and ran towards the suburbs.

Seeing the old man happy like a child, Lu Gong also shook off all the depression these days and laughed. "Elder Zhang, don't you see anyone in the middle of the road to greet you?"

As the ultimate civil official, Zhang Yizhi's arrival did not have any momentum, which was unexpected by Lu Gong.

"Nothing better! Those red tapes are purely laborious and costly! As he spoke, the old man bypassed Xiongcheng, galloped on the path, and sang in his mouth: "The young man who left home and the eldest returned, and the native accent has not changed, and the sideburns have declined......"
