Liu Bai's name was still at the top of the second page, followed by the names of Jun Mo, Ye Su, Tang, and Qi Nian, each of which represented the most powerful cultivator in the world.

Ye Hongyu looked at the Japanese scroll in front of her, there was no emotion on her face, she had lived in Zhishouguan for a while, but it was impossible to come into contact with the seven heavenly books, so she was still a little nervous at this time, especially the presentation of the Japanese scroll, which made her once again perceive the greatness of the omniscient and all-powerful Haotian.

She slowly flipped back the pages of the book, and saw more familiar or unfamiliar cultivator names appear in front of her eyes, one of which made her brow furrow slightly, it was Long Qing's name.

The ink used to write the word Longqing seems to be mixed with a lot of water, so the handwriting on the Japanese scroll paper appears very light and a little gray, and the structure of the word Longqing is obviously a little unstable, and it seems that it may break the paper at any time, and it seems that it may be annihilated at any time.

Ye Hongyu looked at Long Qing's name and shook her head, and continued to flip back, but she just read the Japanese scroll from beginning to end, but still didn't find Ning Que's name, she frowned and said, "Is it really dead?"

The middle-aged Taoist was hanging the washed pen on the pen holder, and then adjusted the orientation of the pen holder to ensure that he could get enough but not blazing sunlight later, looked at it for a moment, and nodded with satisfaction.

"Uncle Shi, I'm done. Ye Hongyu said.

The middle-aged Taoist stepped forward, closed the heavy cover of the Japanese scroll, looked at her and shook his head, and said, "It's really a pity that such a precious opportunity is used to confirm whether Ning Que is alive or dead. ”

Ye Hongyu shook his head and said, "In my opinion, the only person among the people in the academy who can really threaten the Dao Sect is Ning Que, so whether he is dead or alive is very important to me." ”

The middle-aged Taoist frowned slightly and said, "Why do you say this?"

Ye Hongyu said: "It is said that the academy is untrustworthy, but the people inside will still be restricted by certain laws, such as morality, such as Tang law, such as etiquette. For example, Mr. Big and Mr. Two are naturally very remarkable characters, but limited by these laws, the destructiveness they can produce can be estimated. ”

"Ning Que is a person who is not restricted by any laws, if he wants to do something, whether it is the law of morality or etiquette, it will become meaningless to him. He wouldn't even know what grace was. In the battle of the Rotten Ke Temple, if Ning Que was in the position of Mr. Big or Mr. Second, he would definitely not destroy the stone statue of the Buddha and the Rotten Ke Temple. He will definitely kill Qi Nian, and then find a way to level the Hanging Temple. ”

The middle-aged Taoist said, "Why do you dare to be so sure of his actions?"

Ye Hongyu said: "Because I am the same kind of person as him. ”

The middle-aged Taoist said: "Maybe what you said is right, but fortunately, Ning Que is dead. No matter how terrible a person he might have become, the possibilities had ended. ”

Ye Hongyu said again: "In addition to paying attention to Ning Que, I am willing to choose the Japanese scroll to read, because I don't care what I can learn from the Book of Heaven, the seven volumes of the Book of Heaven have now lost two volumes, Ye Su He read six volumes back then, even if I read through five volumes now, it is meaningless, let alone one volume." ”

The middle-aged Taoist said with emotion: "After so many years, it turns out that you still have always regarded your brother as a target. ”

Ye Hongyu thought about the thunder on the shore of the blue lake last autumn. "Before, he was my only goal, but after last fall, he was only a temporary goal on my construction path. ”

The middle-aged Taoist said, "Ye Su should be very happy with your change. ”

Ye Hongyu looked at the middle-aged Taoist's eyes and said, "But I'm not happy...... Because Long Qing stole the book of heaven, I really wanted to kill this thief, but you refused to let me kill it, why is that?"

The middle-aged Taoist was silent.

Ye Hongyu said: "In the past, I used to really doubt whether Longqing was the son of the Hades King. Now that it's not, then why doesn't the temple allow me to rule Si into the wasteland to kill him? Are you raising a tiger?"

The middle-aged Taoist smiled slightly, but still did not speak.

Ye Hongyu stared at his eyes and said, "Actually, what makes me feel most vigilant and uneasy is the incident in the Rotten Ke Temple. Why did the Buddha Sect know that the daughter of the Hades King had come to the world, but our Daomen's reaction was so slow? Why did the Bright Divine Throne choose Sangsang as the successor back then? Didn't he see through it when he died?"

The middle-aged Taoist looked at her and sighed and said, "I know that you came with doubts, but the senior brother who can answer your questions is still traveling in the South China Sea, and I am as confused as you." ”

Ye Hongyu walked out of the grass hut and came to the lakeside.

She put her hands behind her back, her robe fluttering slightly, and silently looked at the green mountain in the distance behind the Taoist temple.

When she was living in Guanzhong, she and Chen Pipi were strictly forbidden to go near the green mountain, and they didn't know what was in that mountain, but she clearly felt that the green mountain was very dangerous.

Now that she has become the great priest of Xiling, her realm is profound, and she is naturally not as afraid and afraid as she was when she was young, and even has a strong urge to find out.

"Want to know what's in that mountain?"

The middle-aged Taoist walked up to her and followed her gaze to the green mountain.

Ye Hongyu didn't hide his thoughts and nodded.

The middle-aged Taoist said: "That green mountain is the strength of our Dao Sect and the glory of the future. ”

Ye Hongyu vaguely guessed something, and asked with a slight raised eyebrow, "When will you come in the future?"

The middle-aged Daoist said, "It will probably take until the person who has made our Dao Sect no longer strong leaves. ”

Ye Hongyu was silent for a long time, and then said, "No one can see how far the future is. ”

The middle-aged Taoist said: "People will grow old and die, no matter how great a person is, he can't get rid of the shackles of this rule, only forever is the real distance in the world, so the future will not be too far." ”

......

......

There is no such thing as a person who never grows old or dies, so death seems distant to everyone, but in fact it is very close, and it often comes without any warning, which seems so light.

In the whole year after the autumn of the sixteenth year of the Apocalypse, many big and small things happened in Chang'an City, but what really attracted the attention of everyone in the world was the funerals one after another.

In the winter, the elderly scholar Wang died, the elder of the three dynasties of the Tang Dynasty, a great man who was extremely important to the balance of the court, it is said that before he died, he took the chicken soup post and looked at it all night, and finally retracted the last words of letting the chicken soup post be buried with him, and then closed his eyes calmly forever.

The old man who had been fighting with Scholar Wang for a whole life, also closed his eyes when the winter snow had not melted, and his eyes were red and swollen with tears, and conveyed the last words of the old sacrificial wine to the officials and students waiting in the palace, saying that since it was too troublesome to move the grave, it would be buried next to Scholar Wang, which would be considered lively.

Chu Xiongtu, the general of the Sixteenth Guard of the Tang Dynasty, also died of illness in the spring of the following year, and immediately after, several ministers left the world, and the white flags on the streets of Chang'an City had no chance to be taken down.

These old ministers and generals who passed away are already very old, and it is normal for them to occasionally suffer from cold and even natural aging, but because they have been away too intensively, half of the mainstays of the two dynasties before and after the Apocalypse have died in this year, which can't help but make people feel a little uneasy.

What's even more disturbing is that the lung disease of Xu Shi, the general of Zhenguo, is getting worse and worse, even if he is forcibly driven back to the southern front line by His Majesty, those humid air does not seem to be able to alleviate his illness a little like in previous years, and according to the news from the palace, the coughing sound in the imperial study is becoming more and more muffled, and the temper of the emperor is getting worse and worse, and the number of times he scolds idiots far exceeds the average value of that year.

The students in the front yard of the academy graduated, most of the students from foreign countries returned to China, one-third stayed in Chang'an, and the Tang students entered the dynasty and joined the army.

Chu Xiongtu's grandson Chu Zhongtian followed his grandfather's last words, starting from the grassroots officers of the Yulin Army, Zhong Dajun returned to Yangguan City, and immediately took over a low rank but extremely important official position, the Zhong family is the surname of Qinghe County, as long as he stays in Yangguan City and does not make any big mistakes, he will soon be promoted again.

The most shocking of these academy students is Situ Yilan, the daughter of General Yunlu and the friend of Her Royal Highness the Princess, who really snatched a place from the military department, and went north to Gushan County to become a female captain under the command of Huashan Mountain, taking a firm first step towards the goal of becoming the first female general in the Tang Dynasty.

Situ Yilan's decision shook the entire Chang'an City, from the initial incomprehension and even cynicism and ridicule, to the silence and calm and secret respect, the people in Chang'an City have experienced a process of ideological transformation, and they have also learned or understood something from it.

Today's Hua Shanyue is no longer a captain, but has become the head of the Sanzhou Town Army, in the northeast hilly area of the Tang Dynasty, except for the northeast border army of the big battalion in Tuyang City, he must be the most powerful.

After Xian Zhilang returned from the Ranke Temple with the mission, he was not implicated in any way because of the changes in the Battle of the Ranke Temple, and successfully took over the vacant position of Xiahou and became the general of Zhenbei.

And General Shu Cheng, because of his meritorious work in cooperating with the academy in dealing with the disguised horse thieves of the Northeast Frontier Army in the wasteland a few years ago, took over Xian Zhilang's position, succeeded as the general of Zhenxi, and faced the Yuelun Kingdom.

Birth, old age, sickness and death are common, and metabolism is always like this.

During the Apocalypse, a generation of old people who were once like stars gradually left this world, and naturally a new handsome man will appear to fill those vacant positions. The most powerful part of the Tang Empire is that this land is the most suitable for growing towering trees, but many people have noticed that as time goes by, a new generation gradually takes over, and the power of Her Royal Highness Princess Li Yu becomes stronger and stronger.

The only thing that can make the queen's faction feel some comfort is that Ning Que, who killed General Xiahou, is missing. If that person is still alive, then whether it is with his close relationship with Li Yu or the indissoluble grudge with the queen, the academy will definitely choose to support Li Yu.
