Chapter 175 Meeting (2)
This man is his enemy, and he may become his enemy in the future, or perhaps by the favor of God, they can eventually become friends.
This person is the old man with white eyebrows.
Whether they will be friends or enemies in the future? It depends on God's mood.
The door was open.
The white-eyed old man seemed to know that Ning Hongyuan was coming to him, and in addition to him, there was also a piano girl in the house.
The qin girl was asked by this old guy, and this request was not too much, so Ning Yiwu naturally agreed to him.
In the hall, the old man was drinking and eating meat with a calm expression, he seemed to have made a full arrangement for his fate, and his expression was no longer as panicked as when Ning Hongyuan first saw him.
After all, he is a man of the moment who has seen the world, and he is naturally different from ordinary people.
That night, he thought about it a lot, and after thinking it through, he suddenly had a very light view of fame.
He didn't know why everything he had longed for was so boring to recall today, and there was no longer any motivation to drive him to pursue it.
Instead of deceiving those traitors, instead of falling into the whirlpool of endless darkness again for a breath, it is better to drink wine and listen to idle songs freely.
It was only now that he realized that he was not a man who desperately wanted fame, that expedition had allowed him to find himself, that he was hungry for power, just because of a desire to be recognized by everyone in the world.
But now he found that he was wrong, even if he had such supreme power, no one recognized him, except Ning Hongyuan.
He found that it was better to recognize himself than to be recognized by others, so he found his lost self.
Did Ning Hongyuan change him? He didn't know, at least he could say that Ning Hongyuan had made him regain his long-lost happiness.
Ning Hongyuan looked at this old guy drinking wine and enjoying the taste of a woman, and he was really a little envious of such a leisurely feeling.
Ning Hongyuan had been at the door for a long time, and he didn't go in to disturb his Yaxing.
The white-eyed old man raised his head and looked at Ning Hongyuan at the door, still smiling, after all, this young man had brought him happiness and fun that he had not seen for a long time.
If a person lives without even happiness and fun, what is he doing while living?
He even had a hazy idea of wanting to take Ning Hongyuan as an apprentice.
This wonderful young man, this unique young man, made him feel very interested.
"You may be seated!"
"Good!"
Although the white-eyed old man had a broken arm, he looked calm, while enjoying the wine, he also listened to the sound of the piano, which was extremely pleasant, and he did not feel the slightest surprise at Ning Hongyuan's arrival, and after smiling, he continued to listen to the music.
Ning Hongyuan walked into the room, and gently gestured between his eyebrows, and the piano girl was ready to retreat.
The white-eyed old man stopped and said, "Let me finish listening to this song." ”
At this moment, the white-eyed old man was a prisoner, and Ning Hongyuan was the master, but Ning Hongyuan still accepted his request.
The white-eyed old man didn't expect Ning Hongyuan to answer so simply, but he felt very faceless, so he had no choice but to let the qin girl out.
Ning Hong saw his inconsistencies and felt that he was like a stubborn old naughty boy.
Only the two of them were left in the room.
Ning Hongyuan put aside the priceless wine and sat down opposite him, "You seem to know that I'm coming to you!"
The white-eyed old man also put down the dishes and chopsticks, "You will come sooner or later, why should I close the door." ”
Ning Hongyuan smiled slightly, "So, you know why I came!"
"Just for the word war!" replied the white-eyed old man after drinking it all.
"You seem to know that the war between the Divine Sword Sect and the Ten Thousand Sword Sect is about to break out, tell me your reasons. Ning Hongyuan poured a glass of wine, and then poured a glass of wine for him.
"One mountain does not tolerate two tigers, the southwest of the heavenly region, surrounded by mountains, abundant products, and the people of this place are brave and strong, sitting here will have the advantage of geographical advantages, entering can look at the "Dongdu Plain", "Lingjiang Plain", retreat can completely achieve self-protection, such a land of abundance, how can it accommodate two male tigers? If I can cooperate, I will not send someone to assassinate you, young man, you are still too young, your ideals are beautiful, and I will tell you a story. The white-eyed old man replied while tasting the wine that Ning Hongyuan poured for him.
"What story!" Ning Hongyuan asked.
"A story that belongs to me!"
Ning Hongyuan was sitting precariously, this topic made him feel very interested, and he also wanted to know how the old man with white eyebrows became a person like Bai Mei who completely relied on his personal will and hard work.
There must be something great about him.
War was on the verge of breaking out, and Ning Hongyuan came here to hope if there was a way to avoid this killing.
Ning Hongyuan hated war in his heart, even if it was to unify the Heavenly Domain, he wanted to reduce bloodshed and sacrifice as much as possible.
Can war wipe out the cancer in troubled times?
This is simply a fantasy, if the victorious side in the war is all righteous, and the losing side is all evil, for example, the victorious side is all martial cultivators like Ning Hongyuan who abide by themselves, and the losing side is all like Elder Zhao who forgets their righteousness, or those who are on the street with wine bags and rice barrels, then the war is not a demon, and it is simply a blind "medicine for troubled times" that all friends who have the root of being a human being and the common desire of the common desire.
It's a pity that this "medicine of troubled times" is poisonous, and the toxicity is violent, and the losing side in the war often has righteous warriors, and among the corpses with piles of white bones, there are often heroes and heroes with generous righteousness.
And what made Ning Hongyuan the most resentful was that the people who benefited after the war were often those middle-class local forces.
These strengths will not be like the spire forces like him, who must take the lead in the war, and even risk being assassinated at every turn, nor will they be like his father and the four holy envoys, who must always work hard to plan for the sake of war, nor will they bury their lives in the endless darkness like those suffering people at the bottom of the tower.
They are like a pack of dogs kept in captivity by the spire, they don't have to think about the victory or defeat of the war, because whichever side wins, they will fall to whichever side, and they don't have to bear the pain of losing the war, and they will become nouveau riche from the war.
They are unknown, they do not seek fame but compete for profit, but they are like flies, which makes Ning Hongyuan extremely annoying.
These flies are the family forces in various places in the martial realm world, and these forces are like moths, gnawing on the peace that the former emperor bought with his blood.
If war is the spoils of these people, what reason does Ning Hongyuan have to take the initiative to provoke such a war?
Of course, living in such a troubled world, Ning Hongyuan is by no means a pacifist, these are all secondary reasons, the most important is that he feels that the power of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect should not be underestimated, even if the Divine Sword Sect wins, it will be a tragic victory, and the snipe and the clam will compete for the benefit of the fisherman, and the final outcome can only let other forces take advantage of the fire to rob.
This is the last thing Ning Hongyuan wants to see.
Therefore, Ning Hongyuan wants to come here.
Ning Hongyuan smiled slightly, "Could it be that apart from fighting, my Divine Sword Sect and your Ten Thousand Sword Sect have no other way?"
The white-eyed old man shook his head and put down his wine glass, "United? What should we do after the union? Not to mention that there will be sharp contradictions in the distribution of some interests, let's just say that the military action after the alliance, once those sects in the east call, will it listen to the Divine Sword Sect or the Ten Thousand Sword Sect? Now that the world is about to fall apart, I think that I was overthrown by that thief, maybe it is the prelude to the conquest in this troubled era." ”
"You have a point! That is to say, this war cannot be avoided at all. ”
The white-eyed old man shook his head again, "If it could have been avoided, I would have united with your father a long time ago, you kid makes me think it's very interesting, then I'll tell you my story, the old man of the former emperor didn't assign me a seat because of my outstanding merits, and he couldn't say it in front of everyone, so he sent me to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and became the deputy sect master at that time." ”
Ning Hongyuan listened to him while sipping the wine gently.
"At that time, when Old Man Liu was in control of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, in fact, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect at that time was extremely chaotic, the upper part was intrigued, the lower was centrifugal and detached, the entire Ten Thousand Swords Sect was a plate of scattered sand, the most funny thing for me was that this Old Man Liu actually launched an attack on the Divine Sword Sect at this time, and finally returned defeated, his subordinates died to death, wounded, only I and the Shadowless Old Man's troops were almost intact, originally I thought that this time Old Man Liu would reuse us, but in the end, after this Old Man Liu failed, not only did he not investigate the reason for his failure, but thought that the two of us troops were intact, and must have colluded with the inside and outside of the Divine Sword Sect to let him suffer such a big defeat, and then prepare to set up a poison banquet, design to kill me and the shadowless old man, and get rid of his troubles, such an unrighteous master, I don't rebel, it's really intolerable!"
