Chapter Eighty-Three: The pinnacle of power is the loneliness
Xishu Road.
Xiao Wuzi and the others, who ran all the way to the west, although they did not say that they were out of the day and night, but they could only choose some remote and wild paths to go straight, according to Shen Jin'an's statement before leaving, but it was inevitable that this road was the territory of Xishu, so it was better for them to be cautious.
Although this road is a sparsely populated place, but accustomed to the wind, sand and wind outside, these little things seem painless.
Xiao Wuzi does not regret it, these insights that cannot be easily seen elsewhere will eventually be his own life-saving charms, and he can rely on these memories to be able to live by himself at some point.
There are occasional places to stop and rest along the way, and Xiao Wuzi can easily rest for a day or two.
The carriage walked on a tea field with no end in sight, according to the geographical chronicle he saw when he came out, this should be a lake left over from ancient times, according to legend, this land was a continuous lake for more than 800 miles a long time ago, but the passage of time really made the later people jaw-dropping.
The carriage lies on a tea field path, sheltered from the scorching sun that can expose people to the sun.
Xiao Wuzi said to himself: "According to the direction of the current itinerary, if you walk south for a few more days, you will arrive at the place that Childe said, and I don't know if Childe will wait for me there." ”
Who would have thought that Shen Jin'an, who made Xiao Wuzi's heart, still be on Qingcheng Mountain at this moment.
To put it carefully, the building of the Qingcheng faction is extremely elegant, the Qingcheng faction has a strict hierarchy and many disciples, if there are not so many rules and regulations, it is not easy to manage carefully.
The Qingcheng faction is mainly divided into three rooms, which are managed by three sons.
The Damen sect of thousands of people needs to consume a lot of firewood and rice every day to eat, drink, and Lazar.
The Qingcheng faction respects purple, and both ordinary servants and disciples wear purple clothes.
Qingcheng school carved beams and painted buildings, gardens are numerous, hundreds of rooms are scattered, the trestle bridge aisle in the middle is even more crooked, the main entrance is divided into two by a screen, and the word Qingcheng is written on it.
In the sect, there is a two-person high sword training vat, in which are placed all kinds of mutilated swords, there is water in the vat, and the sword will be submerged in it, there are several lotus flowers on the vat, and there are more than a dozen fat koi swimming around in it under the lotus.
The head of the Qingcheng faction is named Lin Pan, and the three sons under his knees are the eldest son Lin Hui, the second son Lin Hong, and the youngest son Lin Yong.
Although the three of them are the same father, they are not the same mother, Lin Pan's wives and concubines are in groups, and there are no less than a dozen concubines alone, which can be said to be old and strong.
The three brothers are not considered to be monolithic, if there is still Lin Pan's coercion, everyone would not dare to make waves too much, but in recent times, Lin Pan's old injury has recurred, and he is forced to retreat to protect himself.
The fragrance of power still made the three brothers lose their eyes, and for the position of the head of the house, the third room can be said to be constantly fighting openly and secretly.
In the back garden of Qingchengpai, between the red bricks and green tiles, between the names of hundreds of birds, in a pavilion, a lady wearing gorgeous clothes stood in the garden, holding a pu fan in her hand, gently shaking the pu fan, causing a gentle breeze for a while, and the body fragrance of the lady was also homeopathic, causing the surrounding birds to surround.
The lady is beautiful, graceful and luxurious, well-dressed, and shows everyone's demeanor in every move.
Just as the lady was admiring the flowers, there was a rush of footsteps, and a sturdy man hurriedly broke in, the man was short, but his appearance was a little upright, but the black mole at the corner of his mouth looked a little obscene.
Seeing the man walk straight in, a maid beside the lady hurriedly lowered her brows, as if she didn't dare to face the man in front of her.
The man was Lin Hong, the second son of the head of the Qingcheng faction, and Lin Hong, who was in his first place, put his hands on the red agate belt, and the feeling of being high and powerful for many years made a servant seem to dare not raise his head.
"Second son." The slave and maid shouted softly from the side.
Lin Hong just raised his hand and waved it gently, and after coaxing the maid in front of him away, he came to the woman's side and whispered, "My eldest brother is back." ”
Madame shook the fan lightly and said slowly, "Didn't he come back a long time ago?" ”
Lin Hong shook his head and said: "This time I always have a bad premonition, I heard that he brought back seven or eight women, according to my understanding, it should be a cultivator of the Jiangnan Hehuan Sect, if he unites with the Hehuan Sect, I'm afraid it will be unfavorable for us." “
Madame walked in front of the flowers, stretched out two fingers and gently stroked a few green leaves on the vine trellis, and said with a smile: "It's just a leaf, now the Qingcheng faction has become a tiger, your father is holding on to a breath, just to see who of you brothers can continue to lead the Qingcheng faction to create more glory, you have been in the sect for many years, and your power has long been deep-rooted." All in all, in a word, chaos is good for your eldest brother, and stability is good for you. If you want me to say it, don't do anything now, just wait. ”
Lin Hong, who felt quite reasonable when he heard his wife's words, hugged his wife in his arms and said, "Sister-in-law, you are still the best for me." ”
Madame waved her hand and said, "It's still in the sect, you'd better be honest." ”
The woman just spoke, but there was no slightest stop, the man was anxious to untie the woman's belt, and when he was about to take a step, the woman gently interrupted with her hand: "Your eldest brother will come over in a while." ”
Even when he heard Lin Hui's name, Lin Hong didn't care at all: "He chose to betray you?" Are you still willing to follow him? If you want me to say, you can remarry and follow me. ”
The woman put the fan on Lin Hong's lips and said softly, "Follow you?" Follow you little hairy head? ”
Although Lin Hong is still upright, compared with the woman in his arms, it can be said that the toad has eaten swan meat.
Lin Hong, who was ridiculed by the woman, didn't care at all: "My sister-in-law is so beautiful, but she has always lived in a simple place, and my eldest brother is dashing, isn't it a tyrannical thing?" If my father really intends to entrust me with the position of helper in the future, I should treat my sister-in-law as a guest. ”
The woman's name is Fang Mihe, the eldest daughter of the Fang family, the rich man of Xishu, because of a variety of reasons, the Qingcheng faction needs the support of silver, and the rich man needs the protection of the Jianghu forces.
However, Lin Heng has been lingering in the flowers for many years under the pretext of carrying forward the power of the Qingcheng faction, which makes Fang Mihe, who has no relationship between husband and wife, even more dissatisfied, if you are not kind, then don't blame me for being unjust, it's a big deal that a red apricot comes out of the wall.
It's just that Fang Mihe's concubine is Lin Heng's half-brother Lin Hong, although everyone in the whole house knows it, but no one dares to put it forward.
"You exaggerate yourself like this, is it possible that you have forgotten that you have a third brother?" Fang Mihe said softly.
For Lin Yong, Lin Hong seemed disdainful: "The third child is just a nerd, everyone knows that he only reads the sage books, and it can be said that the fireworks in the world like you are not clean, to say that my third child has read the sage books in vain, and the woman is like a wolf and a tiger, like a delicacy, if you don't even taste this taste, then wouldn't it be in vain to read the sage books?" ”
When Fang Mihe heard Lin Hong's words, he remained silent, and said lightly: "You, you, don't be so anxious, when you really can one day become the head of the Qingcheng faction, you can do whatever you want." By the way, are all those people arranged? ”
Lin Hong's face was gloomy, he paused for a moment, his palm tightly grasped the wooden pillar next to the pavilion, and with a hard grip, there was a slight crack in the pavilion made of fine wood: "Don't mention it, Lord Du has already prepared everything, but there was a mess in the vulture, and a young man protected the goods." Luckily, I have some spare ones here, which should be out of the way. “
Fang Mihe looked at the sound of footsteps getting closer and closer, and smiled: "Now that the arrow is ready to fly, I have to send it." ”
Just when the two of them were like glue, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.
After Lin Hong heard his familiar voice, he immediately turned around and said respectfully, "Congratulations on the return of the eldest brother." ”
Lin Jue said with a smile: "I'm tired of my brother." ”
"These things are all within the brother's job, big and small, the brother has been prepared, if there is any need, the brother only needs to bother." Lin Hui touched the mole on his face with his hand and said.
"If there is nothing to do, my brother will not send you, I haven't chatted with your sister-in-law for a long time, and there are always a lot of words in my stomach." Lin Heng said with an eviction order.
Lin Hong didn't have a displeasure on his face because his good things were disturbed, he just put on a look of respecting his brother and sister-in-law and said, "No problem, my brother will retire!" “
Power is a mountain, and the higher you climb, the more you feel cold and empty, until you reach that peak seat, but you can understand what it means to be alone.
Thinking about the Lin family brothers, they were merged into a class of three masters, at that time the power did not completely change the minds of several people, they stood together in the air attic of Qingcheng Mountain, drinking and chatting together, Lin Hong still clearly remembered that the eldest brother said that he wanted to be the first hero in the world, and the third brother said that he wanted to be a peerless literary world that attracted the attention of thousands of people, and he only thought about how to make the Qingcheng faction carry forward, and the three brothers at that time still relied on each other is arm, but time has passed, and the three of them have taken different routes.
The eldest brother Lin Heng didn't know what the blow was, not only gave up his own martial arts cultivation, but also indulged in women's sex, the third brother Lin Yong lived in that small study all the year round and stayed at home, if it was just like this, as a brother, he would take care of him, and Yonghua would not lack them.
But they shouldn't have to fight with themselves.
Dad, you look at the banner of the Qingcheng faction that only you can carry yourself, and only if you carry it yourself will not fall, as for who wants to get involved, just two words.
"Dreaming!"
