Chapter 244: The Pride of the Heavens
Before the war that swept through the Eight Desolations began, Baicheng was already immersed in a tense atmosphere, and every Bai family member who held power in his hands knew that on the eve of the storm, it was usually quiet, but he must not be numb to act as if nothing had happened.
The war that is about to be faced this time is different from the previous siege of cities and land, in the past, it was to fight those family forces that were not in the climate, and the white-character flags were planted one after another on those palm-sized territories, just like a jackal devouring a little sheep. Now it is different, whether it is the Yanhuang Army in the northwest or the Immortal Clan in the Southern Regions, they are all jackals who eat people and do not spit out bones.
After Wuwei released the demon clan, Baicheng had already entered a state of readiness.
Bai Jianqi, who was originally thoughtless, suddenly adjusted the deployment of the whole army vigorously, and the garrison of the imperial capital of the Central Regions remained unchanged, mainly to defend against the cross-border invasion of the Yan and Huang Army in the Northern Regions, but the garrisons of several important cities on the eastern side of the country were quietly transferred back to Baicheng, so that Baicheng's strength once expanded to the scale of 200,000, and the whole army was on standby, waiting for the movement on the side of Yucheng.
If the matter of the deployment of the army was brought up by Wuwei and Yeqing, Chu Yunchuan would not be surprised at all.
Afterwards, I learned that this matter was a secret order given by Bai Jian Qi when he was taking a bath in Jiuquan Building, Chu Yunchuan was extremely excited, just imagine, how precious it is that a bastard slut can take time out of the flowers to think about business.
Through the open window on the white wall, Chu Yunchuan looked at the pair of men and women in the courtyard who were making trouble, and squinted his eyes with a smile. Under the wisteria tree. Bai Jian Qizheng, who had just returned from Jiuquan Building, said to Drinking Frost confidently: "I just drank some wine, took a bath, and promoted the economic development of the singer industry by the way, can I be as cold as an iceberg?"
"Am I cold? I've always been like this, and what you want to do is your freedom, and it has nothing to do with me. The elegant and noble Drinking Frost turned around and left, not angry or angry.
The powerful Bai Jian Qi roared: "You stop me!"
The wind at the beginning of summer seems a little incomprehensible. A few wisteria petals. There was a faint sadness floating out, and it became the only scenery in Bai Jianqi's eyes, and the distant background did not turn around for him, but he did not catch up either.
It was an expression of no frustration
Although Chu Yunchuan appreciates his current optimism. But I also have to admit it. This guy is just a fledgling when it comes to emotional matters. Accustomed to using money to buy spring, he forgot the role of the heart. However, Chu Yunchuan, who is a master. I never thought about teaching him how to take care of his sister, and he didn't have that idleness.
Chu Yunchuan walked to the door of the round arch, picked up a small stone and smashed it at the back of Bai Jianqi's head.
"Oops, which bastard......" Bai Jianqi touched the back of his aching head and wanted to curse, but when he turned his head and saw Chu Yunchuan who was smiling, he was so angry that he was exhausted. He asked Chu Yunchuan with some incomprehension: "Isn't it so idle? Doesn't the trick played by a three-year-old broken child feel naΓ―ve?"
Chu Yunchuan smiled without saying a word, and hooked his finger at him.
This very seductive action, Bai Jian Qi has seen countless times in his dreams, but the dreams are full of beauties with silky eyes and reclining on the couch. Right now, this action was made by Chu Yunchuan, which made him feel very twisted, and he stepped forward hard, complaining all the way: "Can you not disgust me?"
What Bai Jianqi was thinking in his heart, Chu Yunchuan's heart was like a mirror, and he was too lazy to talk nonsense with him.
Chu Yunchuan turned around and said, "Come with me and take you to see something." β
"What? mysterious ......" Bai Jian Qi quickly chased after him, and asked happily: "Could it be that my conscience has found out and wants to give me a treasure?"
"Yes, I will give you a personal emperor. β
"Listening to this, how can I not find the wonderful feeling of pie falling from the sky? Don't you think it is vulgar? Actually, you can sit on it by yourself, and I don't fight with you, as long as you say a word, I will immediately pout my ass and give way, and I won't even let out a fart. β
"Your master and I are just ordinary people, and we love beauty but not the country. β
"Hehe, so you are self-inflicted, and you deserve to die for so many years. β
"It's not as chic as your seventh master. β
......
Rather than being a master and apprentice, the two of them were more like the Jinlan brothers, talking and laughing all the way, and before they knew it, they had arrived at Chu Yunchuan's bedroom. Chu Yunchuan took out a two-meter-high screen and said meaningfully: "This picture was given to me by someone a few days ago, and I will take a closer look with my eyes wide to see if I can see any doorway." β
"Hehe, don't be an idiot, although I can only draw chickens pecking rice, but I still have the ability to appreciate it, and I grew up in the City Lord's Mansion. Bai Jian Qi smiled confidently and began to appreciate the picture screen.
The azure screen depicts an ink-colored dragon, and a handsome young man with a golden crown and jade wisps rides on the dragon, holding the dragon's reins tightly and galloping in the sky.
Dragon Charts like this have been circulating in Tianshu for a long time.
Bai Jianqi remembered that this kind of picture could not be seen in the real Xianwu Great Sect, in the past, those Xianmen disciples who were above the top did not disdain the dragon at all, but among the people, there were many such works circulating. There are generally two theories, one is that it symbolizes the pride of the sky, which originated in ancient times, and the other is that it symbolizes the subjugation of demons, which has been circulating since the Great War of the Dragon Domain.
Through these two-for-tat statements, it can also be seen that the battle in the Dragon Domain more than a thousand years ago completely subverted the image of the Dragon Clan in the minds of all beings.
However, what made Bai Jianqi confused was that he couldn't understand what Chu Yunchuan's motive was for letting him ponder this picture screen, and he wanted to ask directly to understand, but he was afraid of losing face, so he seemed to be very unconscious.
After pondering for a long time, Bai Jian Qi smiled from shallow to deep: "First of all, you can be sure that this screen is the style you like." The azure background, with the ink theme, is refreshing and heavy, and it is your dish. β
Chu Yunchuan smiled lightly: "Let's talk about the point." β
"This point, it should be a metaphor......" Bai Jianqi's gaze stayed on the dragon's head, and he had already noticed that there was no fierce color in the dragon's expression, on the contrary. It seems very gentle, with an awe-inspiring and righteous demeanor. Bai Jian Qi analyzed quite seriously: "If you guess correctly, this should be a picture of 'the pride of the sky', right? It has nothing to do with demon subjugation, it symbolizes a kind of emperor identity who dominates the world." β
Chu Yunchuan smiled but said nothing, but he was quite relieved in his heart.
Bai Jianqi asked tentatively again: "Who gave you this picture?"
"You don't care who sent it, if only you could understand what it means. Chu Yunchuan didn't beat around the bush, and said bluntly: "Someone sent me this picture, which means that someone is dissatisfied with you." You want me to replace you. β
"I understand. β
"What do you know?" saw Bai Jian Qi's indifferent attitude. Chu Yunchuan said in an accentuated tone: "My attitude is not important, what matters is your own attitude, you have to correct your identity! If you can't come up with a convincing brilliant record, even if I don't replace you." Sooner or later, someone else will replace you. I can't stay here and protect you for the rest of my life. Understood?"
Chu Yunchuan's serious tone made Bai Jianqi feel a little uncomfortable, and nodded sincerely: "Master." I understand your conscience and intentions, and I don't need to explain it in such detail. β
If Chu Yunchuan wanted to replace him, Bai Jianqi would not even frown, he knew very well that this master-apprentice relationship could not be measured by a throne, in the past, he would never remember the bits and pieces that the master had paid for the Bai family brothers and sisters. But if others want to get their hands on the throne, he will definitely fight to the end, and this road has come to this day, and the ups and downs he has experienced are not a star.
After thinking about it, I couldn't understand what kind of person was dissatisfied with me.
Thinking about it, with the master's current status in Baicheng, it is not that the three sects and nine streams can see it, and there are only a few who are qualified to come to the door to give gifts, is it a high-level person in power in the army, or a brother around him?
Guessing this, Bai Jian Qi was a little shocked.
This fleeting change in expression could not escape Chu Yunchuan's eyes.
Chu Yunchuan, who was bright-eyed, reminded him heavily: "The heart of guarding against people is indispensable, it's good that you have this vigilance, right now, it is the time to employ people, and if you have no choice, try not to have a gap in your heart." Doing your part and making them succumb to your record is more rewarding than killing them. β
"If you want to compete with me, you just don't know if they have enough weight. Bai Jianqi stroked the ink faucet on the painting screen, and asked with a light smile: "Can you give me this thing?" As long as I see it, I will be full of energy, and I can't cover the sky with one palm. β
"Take it. β
"Hey, then I'm leaving. β
"Sit down, you're not done yet. β
Chu Yunchuan walked to the antique round table, twisted the purple clay pot and poured a cup of light green tea. The conversation got to the point, but he suddenly got stuck, like tasting tea, excluding it thousands of miles away in one go, slowly and leisurely, as if every detail had to be carefully considered.
And for Bai Jian Qi, this is undoubtedly a painful torture.
In order to wait for this, he almost didn't want to see through the autumn water, until the cup of hot tea in Chu Yunchuan's hand was drunk, he couldn't help but ask: "Can you enter the topic?"
"Are you in a hurry?" Chu Yunchuan poured a second cup of tea, still without entering the topic.
"It's not a matter of urgency. Bai Jianqi said depressedly: "I am an efficiency faction, everything is practical, just like picking up a woman's clothes, hiss, and it will be done in a second." β
"That's the end of the hiss, is it over in a second?"
"......!!!" Waterfall Khan, Bai Jianqi felt that it was simply an insult to himself! He didn't even bother to respond, but he still couldn't help but clarify: "Some things can't be compared, and those who should extend the time should still extend the time." β
"This is not over, what are you anxious about?" Chu Yunchuan glared at him, and said slowly: "Action, take Yeqing's vigorous and resolute style as the benchmark, and you are almost qualified for this." layout, you have to learn the prudence and meticulousness of inaction, be able to endure, be able to think, and be silent. A lot of times, rushing to get angry will only make you die faster, so you might as well stop and think about why. β
"Uh! Actually, I'm not too young, can you old man stop working so hard?"
"Okay, as long as you can do martial arts and martial arts, and Wen can be inside, like you said, I won't let a fart go. Chu Yunchuan got up and patted him on the shoulder heavily, and warned again: "If you don't want someone to be a master of merit, this time you have to fight the wilderness, you better go into battle in person, whether it is the pride of the fate or not, look at your performance this time, don't let me down."
