On an autumn night in the eighth year of the Celestial Empire, in the alleys of the capital, in Jing Shilie's house, in the study, the candles were dim, and Jing Shilie was explaining "Spring and Autumn" to his son Jing Changfeng.

"The road is in sight! The road is in sight! The great Celestial Empire has now made Ding Kun so far! Miasma! Alack! Jing Shilie couldn't help but sigh.

"Daddy, what do you mean by the road?" Jing Changfeng asked puzzled.

"This 'road to the eye', because the court is incompetent and brutal, and the people are not allowed to put forward opinions, if anyone has any discussion about the government, they will be arrested and killed. Because of the weakness of the heart, when I see the common people gathering together to talk, I will also think that I am talking about the government and politics, and I will also grab it. Therefore, when ordinary people saw acquaintances on the road, they did not dare to come forward to say hello, so they could only take a sneak look. Jing Shilie said.

"Oh! I understand! I was in front of our shop today, and I saw two people looking at each other and nodding, that's the 'road to the eye'! "Kyocho Wind Road.

"yes!" Jing Shilie sighed.

"Daddy, don't you look happy today? Could it be that your sister made you angry? "Kyocho Wind Road.

"What, your sister is better, much better than you! Look at you, you've been dancing all day long, and you've brought all these wooden sticks to the study, and you're throwing them out early tomorrow morning! ”

"Don't! Father! The child has figured out a new set of 'Changfeng Sword Technique' in the past few days, do you want to take a look? "Kyocho Wind Road.

"No need, Dad is tired today, I'll see it tomorrow. It's not too early, it's time to go to bed! ”

"Dad, are you hiding something from me and my mother?" Jing Changfeng asked.

"Alas, now that the world is going to be chaotic soon, it's a pity that it's ......"

"Dad, what does it mean that the world is chaotic? What is the 'way of the world'? ”

"Don't ask, you don't understand! When you're older, Daddy can tell you. Changfeng, grow up quickly! Jing Shilie said as he stroked the child's head.

"Dad, I know. From the moment that fairy uncle made you take medicine and changed you into your current appearance, after we moved to this capital, I knew about it. When the world changes, the bad guys are coming, right? ”

"Not exactly. But you have a point. Jing Shilie said, "Don't think nonsense, go to the bedroom and go to sleep!" With that, Jing Shilie sent Changfeng into the bedroom, watched him cover the quilt and fall asleep, then came to the study again, and looked at the "Spring and Autumn" spread out on the bookcase in a daze.

"Brother Jing Ming, what's wrong?" A familiar voice came, and Jing Shilie was taken aback, and hurriedly bounced up from his chair, and then relaxed.

"Horse ...... Xuanshan Daoist, don't come unharmed! ”

"Ah...... Haha, unharmed, unharmed! What's going on in the capital lately? "Genzan Road Chief goes straight to the point.

"It's not a big move, but I heard that Ding Kun's kid is going to attack the Northern Regions!"

"Really? This kid can't stand it anymore in the end! Xuanshan Daoist sat on the bookcase and swept the dust around on "Spring and Autumn".

"Dao Chief, you're a little unsightly, oh, don't you see the Taishi chair, can you please sit over there?" Jing Shilie faced the master, and now he can relax a little.

Of course, the main reason is that since Ma Biao became the "Xuanshan Dao Chief", people have become more and more chic, and they have become more and more humorous.

"Could it be that the Taoist knows the secret in it?" Jing Shiyeol asked.

"I know a little bit about it." Xuanshan Dao Chang jumped over lightly and squatted on the Taishi chair.

"Would you like to tell Ben Blacksmith?" Jing Shilie Road.

"What blacksmith...... I've never heard of a blacksmith having a study at home! The blacksmith is fake, but the teacher is real, right? The Taoist raised his eyebrows and said.

"True, false, false, true! - Don't interrupt, you can talk about it! ”

"Last autumn, this Emperor Ding Kun went to Montenegro to find me for some 'Life Continuation Pill'! I was still wondering if I should tell the truth about this 'dissipation/soul/eclipse/bone/scatter', but he told me something...... Do you know the story of that 'dregs'? ”

"What a 'dregs'—oh, know, know! Uncle Li Niu told me about it back then! What's wrong? ”

"It's good to know! Ding Kun said, don't look at the relatively peaceful relationship between the Celestial Empire and the Northern Regions in recent years, that has a price! Every year, the Celestial Empire wants to pay tribute to the Northern Regions a considerable number of strong men, I don't know what to do, I only know that when these people are released, all of them have been drained of their essence, and they will soon die! ”

"Is there such a thing? Could this be the so-called 'Regent' beast? ”

"Jing Ming, you kid actually know this? Where did you hear that? When Xuanshan Dao Chang heard this, he was immediately interested, and his eyes lit up.

"There's no need to make such a fuss, I also read it from ancient books. It is said that in ancient times, there was a kind of monster in the northern region, called "Regent", like a human rather than a human, with red eyes and a long tongue, ten zhang long, immortal, specializing in the soul of men, in order to strengthen their own mana, and later was shot in the eye by Hou Yi's apprentice Fengmeng with a magic arrow, bleeding into a river, turning into black water, and then this beast disappeared...... It's just nonsense, how can there be such a thing! ”

"Really? That's it! It must be like this! The Northern Regions must have raised such a monster, so it needs a lot of strong men for it to enjoy, so he keeps asking Ding Kun to contribute men there! ”

"Then what does it have to do with Ding Kun's expedition to the Northern Regions? Is it to capture this monster? ”

"That's not necessarily, after all, Ding Kun may not know about the 'Regent'! But I really want to get rid of the persecution of the Northern Regions, which is one of the important reasons! Do you think, wouldn't it be a great merit to be able to bring the Northern Regions to its knees? Besides, in the name of foreign wars, can you divert the attention of the people? ”

"That's right! - So, what does the Taoist mean? ”

"If so, wouldn't we have a chance? Well? Daoist Xuanshan winked at Jing Shilie.

"Respected Xuanshan Daoist, please don't take a bite of 'we', I, Jing Shilie—remember, my surname is Jing, and my name is Shilie—I have never joined your 'Blood Handprint' organization, and I am not interested, besides, I do not agree with you using this means to achieve justice......"

"Stop, stop, stop! Don't use your set to persuade the Taoist! Don't forget, you kid is literate and literate, or poor Taoism taught you! ”

"Then can you stop and let the people take a breather? You are happy to carry out assassination, but more innocent people have suffered! Now that the Emperor is about to conquer the Northern Regions again, it is inevitable that he will arrest Dinglaf, and the burden on the people is already heavy enough......"
