Chapter 112: Born to Die
The night breeze blows lightly, coming from the incomparably huge black wings, blowing away all the divine and light, isolating all sight and perception, representing the purest darkness and power.
"The young phoenix is clear in the old phoenix...... That is for the future after all. ”
The holy queen looked at Xu Yourong in her hand and said expressionlessly.
No one could enter the night, except for those she had allowed to do, like the red.
Mo Yu knelt outside the hall with his head down, not daring to look inside.
"Send her back to the Holy Maiden Peak, and let her go after confirming that Chen Chang is alive and dead. ”
Hearing the voice of the Holy Queen Mother, Mo Yu dared to raise his head and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
The green bamboo cart was ready, and the black sheep came back from nowhere.
The Holy Queen glanced at the black sheep, was silent for a moment, and nodded.
The wheels crushed the bluestone slabs and drove slowly towards the night outside the palace.
Mo Yu sat on the seat, looking at Xu Yourong who was sleeping in his arms, and suddenly felt a little sad.
She is sad for Xu Yourong and Chen Changsheng.
Chen Changsheng seemed to be dead.
Actually, she was also a little sad.
She hadn't been to the National Education Academy for a long time, she hadn't seen Chen Changsheng, and she didn't have any position or reason to go, even if Chen Changsheng died, she had no reason to be sad, thinking of this, she became more and more sad.
The green bamboo car seems to be slow, but it is actually extremely fast, and there is something indescribably weird, although there are few pedestrians on the street at night, there are many cavalry and strong men who are searching for Chen Changsheng and want to protect Chen Changsheng, but no one notices this car.
It didn't take long for the green bamboo car to leave Kyoto through the south gate of Guò and drive onto the official road leading to the Saintess Peak.
Almost at the same time as he left Kyoto, Xu Yourong opened his eyes.
It's not that she is hiding something, but the will of the Holy Queen.
She opened her eyes, but she couldn't make any movements, not even a finger.
Because in her waterfall-like black hair, a hairpin was inserted diagonally and seemingly casually.
Or rather, it's a wooden hairpin.
The third in the list of 100 weapons, the wooden sword Xiaofeng.
Xu Yourong couldn't move, but he could speak.
However, she was obviously not in the mood to speak at this time, just quietly looking at the roof of the car, not knowing where in the starry sky her eyes would fall after passing through.
"Everyone has their own life, his life is not good, what can be done. Mo Yu looked at her and said with pity.
Xu Yourong retracted his gaze, looked at her and said, "I don't think he will die." ”
Mo Yu naturally knew Chen Changsheng's current physical condition, and thought to himself that even if His Majesty the Pope could save him from being killed by his mother, how many more days would he be able to live?
Xu Yourong seemed to have figured out a very important thing, and said calmly: "That is his own destiny after all, it should be run according to his ideas, I want to isolate him from this world, but he wants to go back, the way of heaven wants him to die, he prefers to live in the place of death." ”
"To live to die?"
"Do you remember when the Khan Qingshen was in the past?"
"Yes. ”
"His Majesty Taizong said that it is difficult for those who live to die to die. ”
......
......
Chen Changsheng had not considered the issue of life and death, he had already put life and death aside.
He left the palace and came to a very secret, or rather ordinary, place.
The Plum Garden Inn outside the Tianshu Mausoleum.
At the beginning, he lived here for a short period of time, and he really got to know Tang Thirty-six here.
This inn meant a lot to him, it was the beginning of his life in Kyoto, and now he is back here, first considering that no one would expect him to come here, and then he also wants the last part of his life in Kyoto to start here.
He didn't know that not long after he left the palace, a green bamboo car drove out of the palace, and Xu Yourong was in that car.
He didn't know that at this time, the rest of the senior brothers were reading by starlight in the Heavenly Book Mausoleum across the river.
On this night, the two most important people in his life were once very close to him, but he didn't know at that time that his mind and spirit were on his body, on the pills and magic weapons he carried, on the various exercises in the sea of knowledge, and on the countless swords in the sheath.
He sat under the tree in the small courtyard and began to sort out his monastic situation under the starlight.
Because of the fragmentation of the meridians, his current true yuan output is even weaker than two years ago, and it is not even as good as an ordinary sitting realm, but the starlight scattered in his flesh and blood is like snow in the mountains and rivers, it seems to be a piece in the east and a piece in the west, but in fact, the total number is very large. And although he had a problem with the gathering of stars in the Cold Mountain Breaking Realm, it could not be said that he had completely failed, on the surface, his realm was still at the peak of the Passage Realm, but if he didn't care that the meridians were broken again and endangered his life, he could condense the starlight into the realm in a short period of time.
In other words, if he didn't die, he could be a short-term powerhouse with an extremely large number of true elements, and a Gathering Star Primal Realm powerhouse.
He also knows countless swordsmanship, body techniques, and Dao techniques.
After entering the Tongyun Upper Realm, most of the opponents he met were already powerhouses of the Gathering Star Realm, and the simplified version of Ye Zhi Bu that had helped him many times at the beginning was no longer of much significance, and the speed bonus brought by footwork was very small compared to his own speed. Similarly, ordinary swordsmanship like the Hundred Flower Sword and the Seven Star Sword may occasionally be useful in the same tier battle, but they are also useless in tonight's battle and can be removed.
He calmed down and cleared up, removing those miscellaneous and unrefined swordsmanship and Taoism, leaving only the hardest, sharpest, and most powerful means in the sea of knowledge. Zhongshan Wind and Rain Sword, National Religion True Sword, Inverted Mountain Stick, Linguang Sword, Wenshui Three Styles, Liaotian Sword, Broken Army Sword...... and the three swords that Su Li taught him.
Burning Sword, Wisdom Sword, Stupid Sword.
This is Chen Changsheng's most powerful means now.
For a true kendo master, there may be no high or low swordsmanship itself, but there must be a size.
The swordsmanship that Chen Changsheng is best at are all big swords, especially the three swords that Su Li taught him, no matter how unpredictable they are, the weather is extremely great.
The great sword or the ultimate move has a great loss of the true element of the divine consciousness, Chen Changsheng's divine sense is extremely stable and powerful, and the number of true elements is also large, but the output has always been a problem, so he is not durable to fight, in many battles in the past, he will strive to end in the shortest time, only when the last battle of the Great Dynasty and the chaotic battle before and after Xunyang City, he will be forced to let himself fall into a situation of bitter battle, and in fact, he has fought extremely hard, and he has almost lost under the opponent's sword many times.
Tonight, he was seriously injured and did not recover, and forcibly mobilized Zhenyuan to attack, and he couldn't enter this situation, so he had to hit it with one blow.
He opened his eyes, looked at the stars in the night sky, and began to deduce the calculations.
That person is not from a poor background, his biological mother is the concubine of the former servant of the Ministry of Rites, and there is no unbearable painful experience in his childhood, there is no lack of food and clothing, and there is no humiliation of his mother, although the imperial examination is not particularly smooth, but it is not special, that person's temperament is very cold and cruel, his strength is very terrifying, and his divine sense is extremely powerful, as if he has gathered the resentment and boundless pain of thousands of people, he has experienced it, and it is indeed not ordinary people can resist it......
Countless materials and information appeared in his sea of knowledge, just like the stars in the night sky, numerous, seemingly messily together, and it was impossible to analyze useful things from them, but the stars had their own connections, and countless invisible lines were woven into a star map, in which the true meaning was naturally hidden.
I don't know how long it took, he got up and walked towards the outside of the Plum Garden Inn.
The Unsullied Sword was still lying quietly in the scabbard of the Hidden Blade, but he had already drawn it.
......
......
The green bamboo car went south along the official road, the black sheep in front of the car should not know these turbulence in Kyoto, but it stayed in the palace for too long, and wanted to go out for a walk, it looked at the autumn trees beside the road and did not feel fresh, but it was somewhat interested in the dew drops that had just formed on the grass, so stop and go, it seemed unpleasant, but leaving the palace was only a tea time, the car had already passed the mountain, according to the time or after noon, you can reach the Holy Maiden Peak.
The sight of the Queen of the Heavenly Sea followed the mountain to the east, and came to the plain at the end of the mountain, there is a big city in the middle of the plain, the city wall is extremely thick and tall, from the visual point of view, it is even more majestic than the city of Kyoto, it is the famous capital of the world, Luoyang.
In the best location of Luoyang City, there is a palace with an extremely exaggerated area and an unimaginable luxury, the king of Xiang and the king of Thailand...... Several of her nominal sons and grandchildren were there with the singer in their arms, and she didn't know if they were specifically for herself or the officials, and she didn't care.
She retracted her gaze and looked at Kyoto, and saw the old man watering in the palace, the relatives in the manor, the candles that had not burned out in the small orangery, the snow at the bottom of the Kitashinbashi, the begonia tree in the alley of the Kita-Bingji, and the young man holding an umbrella heading towards the place.
She stood on the Gan terrace, the whole world was at her feet, and in her eyes, she just didn't see the person.
More than ten years ago, she thought that the person was dead, but she didn't expect the other party to survive. From the day this fact was confirmed, a rift appeared between her and the Pope, and the whole world except the two of them was unaware of it, and the wind and rain in Kyoto were as gentle as they had been for more than ten years, but after all, they were not what they used to be.
She knew very well that the person who asked Chen Changsheng to come to Kyoto was to deliberately leak the news, that is, to make herself and the Pope suspicious of each other, but she could only accept it, because time could not be turned back, and the incident at the Anglican Academy had happened after all, and it was impossible for the Pope to believe that she had no opinion on it.
From the first time they met in Baicao Garden, she didn't like that person, and she could even say that she hated him, and she didn't value him very much, until she knew that he was not only a businessman, but also a Taoist person, that she began to face him squarely, and there were some things that she couldn't understand at first, but finally had an answer.
The name Shang Xingzhou represents the orthodoxy of the state religion and those who opposed her.
The name Ji Daoren represents the will of Emperor Taizong, or the will.
That's what really made her wary.
