Chen Changsheng's gaze crossed the Black Willow Forest and landed on those Great Zhou Iron Riders in the snow field, and he understood what Su Li had just said. In addition to the demons, the people in this continent who want him to die the most are the Zhou people. These Great Zhou Iron Cavalry, who are obviously searching for targets everywhere, are proof of this, but he still thinks that there may be other possibilities, such as these Great Zhou Iron Cavalry are here to save us?

"Why do you always like to think about things in the bad way?" Su Li listened to his question and said sarcastically, "Because everything tends to develop according to people's worst-case assumptions. ”

As if to testify to his words, dozens of horsemen from hundreds of iron horsemen drove towards the Black Willow Forest, drawing a black line on the monotonous snowfield, and when they came to the Black Willow Forest, those cavalrymen drew their weapons from the saddle side and lowered their helmets, looking very vigilant - no matter how you look at it, these cavalrymen are not here to save people, but to kill.

The cavalry entered the forest, the sound of hooves was dense, and occasionally the sound of black willow branches being broken, whether it was saving people or killing people, they didn't need to hide their tracks, and if the target they were searching for was really just a waste person as the intelligence said, then the next thing should be very simple.

I don't know when, Chen Changsheng's right hand has already fallen on the hilt of the sword, and he can draw the short sword at any time.

His body is really strong now, even if he crosses thousands of miles of snowfield, all the fatigue and hidden injuries, with sleeping on the cold kang all night, all disappeared without a trace, the true yuan gradually recovered, even the injuries suffered in Zhou Yuan are much better, he is confident that he can defeat and even kill the dozens of cavalry who have entered the forest, even if these cavalry must be the elite of the successful cleansing. But he didn't have any confidence that he would be able to kill these cavalry silently without alarming the cavalry brigade that was marching east on the snow field, and more importantly, these cavalry were all the troops of the Great Zhou, and he was a Zhou person, so he really couldn't kill people without asking for any reason.

He didn't know what to do, silently staring at the faint shadow of the cavalry in the black willow forest, as those shadows got closer and closer, his breathing became more and more rapid, more and more nervous, the hand holding the hilt of the sword, the fingers became whiter and whiter, if the situation was allowed to develop like this, it would not be long before those cavalrymen would see him and Su Li's figures.

"Senior, let's go. ”

He finally made a decision, turned around and motioned for Su Li to come up, and prepared to flee with Su Li on his back.

Since he can't continue to hide, and he can't draw his sword to kill, he can only run, fortunately, he now has unimaginable speed, I believe that those cavalry will not be able to catch up in a short time, as for what kind of trouble Zhou Jun will bring after discovering the whereabouts of Su Li, he can't care about it for the time being.

Su Li had no intention of leaving, and said, "Spread the umbrella." ”

Chen Changsheng didn't understand, so he took the yellow paper umbrella he handed over and opened it, and then followed Su Li's instructions to cross the true yuan into the umbrella handle, and at the same time activated a certain mechanism on the umbrella bone. A faint aura hung down from the umbrella surface of the yellow paper umbrella, like an invisible and substantial waterfall, covering the surroundings. The cold wind could not blow into the yellow paper umbrella, but the snow began to fall in the sky, and the light snow fell on the umbrella surface quietly.

Dozens of cavalry came to the depths of the Black Willow Forest, not far in front of them.

Chen Changsheng was very nervous, looking at those cavalry more than ten zhang away, he could even see the color of the eyes of the cavalry commander who was the leader.

The dozens of cavalrymen seemed to see nothing, and continued to disperse around the Black Willow Forest.

......

......

I don't know how long it took, after confirming that those cavalry had left the Black Willow Forest, Chen Changsheng suddenly relaxed, only to find that the two hands holding the handle of the umbrella and the hilt of the sword had become a little stiff because of nervousness.

"Collect the umbrella. Su Li said.

He put away the yellow paper umbrella as he said, tied it to his waist, and then prepared to leave.

"Don't be in a hurry, those cavalrymen should still be waiting on the periphery. Su Li said again.

Chen Changsheng didn't question it, sat down in the snowdrift next to the tree again, then looked at the yellow paper umbrella, and said with emotion: "I really didn't expect this umbrella to be so useful." ”

The corners of Su Li's lips curled slightly and said, "You don't want to think about who I am." ”

Chen Changsheng didn't answer, he was really a little tired, and he knew that even if he didn't answer, this narcissistic senior would definitely have a way to pick up the words by himself.

Sure enough, Su Li's eyebrows raised slightly, as if he wanted to fly, and said proudly: "This is a magic weapon designed by me and Old Man Tang together, with the Heaven Covering Sword as the pivot and countless rare materials as the body, even if it is a cultivator who sits in the light realm, they may not be able to see through the illusion, do these ordinary cavalrymen still want to see through my umbrella?"

Chen Changsheng wanted to speak and stopped.

Su Li's eyebrows raised a little higher, and said, "If you have something to say, let it go." ”

Chen Changsheng said: "Senior, this umbrella ...... It's mine. ”

The black willow forest was quiet, and the snow fell silently.

When they left Xueling Hot Spring, they had an argument over this matter, Chen Changsheng thought that he was seriously injured, so he didn't continue, but at this time, he couldn't help it after all, because he thought that this umbrella was originally his own.

Su Li looked at him and sneered and said, "Do you know the origin of this umbrella?"

Chen Changsheng heard some stories about the yellow paper umbrella with his folded sleeves, plus what he saw and heard in Zhou Yuan and on the snow field, he basically knew it, and nodded.

Su Li ignored him, still told the story of this umbrella, and finally stared into his eyes and said: "The sword I found, the umbrella I designed, but you said that this umbrella is yours?"

Chen Changsheng said: "But the materials for this umbrella were all found by Mrs. Tang, and the predecessors left this umbrella in the Tang family in Wenshui, isn't it because you can't afford it?"

Su Li's expression became cold, and he said, "You say it again." ”

Chen Changsheng thought that the statement that he couldn't afford the money was indeed a bit inaccurate, so he reorganized the language and said, "Isn't it because you are a senior that the yellow paper umbrella is returned to the Wenshui Tang family?"

Su Li smiled angrily and said, "I am the highest elder in Lishan, I have traveled all over the world, robbed houses and houses, and done all kinds of evil, am I still short of money?"

Chen Changsheng didn't care about the eight words of robbing the house and doing all the evil in his words, and explained seriously: "But you didn't give money." ”

Su Li found that he had nothing to say, so he stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the arena became a little awkward, Chen Changsheng got up, climbed to the black willow tree to observe the movement of the Great Zhou Tieqi in the distance, and at the same time blew away the heat on his face.

After a while, he fell from the black willow tree and said to Su Li: "Senior, those cavalry should really be withdrawn. ”

Su Li ignored him.

Chen Changsheng said: "Senior, if these cavalrymen are really here to hunt you down, then do you still need to hide your whereabouts now? You don't believe in our Zhou people, but there are always people you can trust, just like you said before, someone will come to kill you, and someone will come to save you, although it is far away from the mountain, those who want to save you may be very close." ”

Su Li looked into his eyes and said, "The question is, is there more people who want to kill me, or more people who want to save me?"

Chen Changsheng said with some hesitation: "Senior...... Are you thinking too darkly about human nature? ”

"It's not human nature, it's human hearts. Human nature cannot be tested, and human hearts cannot be guessed. Fanatical love and dislike are, in the final analysis, profits. Emperor Taizong is obviously a shameless person who kills his brother and forced his father, and Zhou Dufu is obviously a butcher who kills people without calculation, why in the eyes of ordinary people, they all have a golden light on their bodies? Because Emperor Taizong and Zhou **** brought them enough benefits, they drove the demons back to the old city of Xue, so that the human beings living in the Central Plains were free from sword wars and slavery by foreign races, so they were naturally the desire of the people. ”

Su Li looked at him and asked seriously, "And what about me? I live in a peaceful era without war, and I haven't done much except killing a few demon generals, what have I done for the human world? What kind of benefits have I sought for cultivators and the people? Is it worth them coming from thousands of miles to help me? Just because my sword dao is powerful and invincible, and my bearing is extraordinary?"

Obviously, it was a very serious and even strict discussion or teaching, but because the last two sentences had changed their taste, Chen Changsheng didn't know how to answer at all, and asked, "What about the Nanren?"

In the ordinary concept, Su Li, the little uncle of Lishan, is the strongest person in the southern world now, and it is precisely because of his existence that the south can retain its last dignity and pride before the prosperous Great Zhou.

"Of course, there are many southerners who thank me, but there are also many southerners who hate me, as I said a few days ago, I have killed many people, since I have lived in the south since I was a child, then most of the people I killed must be southerners, they all have relatives and classmates and descendants, how can they like me? Of course, no matter how many people have enemies with me, it is impossible for them to be the mainstream, otherwise I would not become a street rat that everyone shouts and beats. The problem is that I did something many years ago that disappointed the whole South, so more and more people don't like me. ”

"What's the matter?" Chen Changsheng asked curiously.

"More than ten years ago, you should know about the bloody case of the Anglican Academy. ”

"Yes. ”

"Speaking of which, Ji Daoren is really your master?"

"Senior...... Actually, I really don't know about this matter. ”

"Okay, back to business. In short, after the case of the National Religious College, the Pope was seriously injured, the army was in civil strife, the court was fighting, Zhou Tong was chaotic and murderous, Kyoto was in chaos, and your Zhou Kingdom was in a mess, in the eyes of the southerners, there is no doubt that this is the best opportunity, and I have to admit that the Immortal Sect at that time was indeed very strong, and it had the power to compete with the palace. ”

"And then?"

"When the Nanren were about to launch in a few years, I went to the Immortal Sect for something and killed all those elders, so what they were going to do naturally had to be stopped. ”

"Senior, this kind of secret sounds really shocking, but why do I always feel that you are praising yourself in a different way?"

"What is there to praise for such a tragic thing. ”

It was rare that Su Li did not take over the conversation and continued to praise himself, his expression was calm and palpitating.

(See you tomorrow)
