There was always a hint of loneliness in Zu Nandong's voice.

Hearing this, Shui Xie frowned and thought for a while, and said with a wry smile: "I was a little flustered when I heard this news suddenly, and now after being reminded by your seniors, I finally reacted." ”

Even after being trapped in the Martial God World for three months, Shui Xie has not forgotten that there is still a group of good brothers in the mortal world waiting for his return, and now if he wants to find out the news, the first thing is to meet them.

Shui Xie thought about it, and with a slight shock of his arm, Yang Long's true qi immediately circulated in his body, instantly evaporating the water droplets all over his body, and then took out a piece of clothing from the storage space and put it on.

Today's water pavilion, the temperament of the body has changed slightly, compared with the previous sharp, more a trace of calm and mature atmosphere, not only the previous warm feeling has never disappeared, or even more intense, as if close to the water pavilion, the atmosphere has become harmonious, it makes people feel at ease inexplicably.

"Senior, I thank you again for your help in the past three months, such a great favor cannot be repaid, but I still have a question, before I say goodbye to you, I must know the answer. Shui Xie bowed deeply to Zu Nandong, bowed, and raised his head, with an unquestionable firmness in his eyes.

Zu Nandong looked at the eyes of the water pavilion, and his heart became solemn, and said, "You ask, I will tell you the most satisfactory answer." ”

Shui Xie took a deep breath and said, "Senior, now that the two countries are seeing each other, will you secretly help Meng Luo?"

Zu Nandong smiled and said, "My family's ancestral training is to do his best to protect the people of the Shui family, what does the life and death of the rest of the people have to do with me." ”

Shui Xie smiled and shook his head, and continued: "Senior, you know, this is not the answer I want. ”

Zu Nandong put away his smile and said cautiously: "If your Dagao army is reckless in the territory of Monro, I don't think I will stand idly by. ”

When Shui Xie heard this, his heart was overjoyed, and he said happily: "With the words of my seniors, I can put my heart back in my stomach, I don't want to meet a strong and experienced opponent like you on the battlefield." ”

Zu Nandong also smiled lightly and said: "I don't want you to be my opponent either, you kid is too terrifying, not only are there countless magic weapons, but the potential is endless." ”

"Senior, this life of the Water Pavilion can be said to have been picked up by you, and the grace of saving life cannot be repaid, if the predecessors encounter difficulties in the future, my Water Pavilion will never say anything, even if you will give your life with both hands, you will never hesitate. The body of the water pavilion bowed to the end.

A hint of appreciation flashed in Zu Nandong's eyes, then he put on his clothes, waved his hand, and left calmly without saying a word.

Shui Xie raised his head, looked at Zu Nandong's back, let out a long sigh, buried the guilt in his heart deeply, and turned to leave.

The figures of the two walking in opposite directions were stretched by the sunset for a long time.

..................

"Meng Luo, it's still done, it seems that Emperor Qing is also a little anxious. Looking at the long pair of Imperial Forest Army in the mountain pass in the distance, the water pavilion sighed slightly.

"In the distance, is the Water Pavilion Water Prince?" a neutral voice came from the Imperial Forest Army in the distance.

"Exactly. Hearing this, the water pavilion strode up to meet it.

Unexpectedly, after the water pavilion agreed to this sound, there was a sudden wave of deafening shouts from the group of royal forest troops, and these battle-hardened soldiers heard the name of the water pavilion, as if they had heard some great good news, completely ignoring the formation, and ran towards the water pavilion with cheers.

When the water pavilion saw this scene, a warm touch swept through his heart. These soldiers are so simple, they defeated Gu Junchen, the young master of the Demon Sect who came to provoke, and suddenly had an epiphany before the battle, and defeated Meng Luohu and his brothers, these are just things that a bloody Central Plains boy should do, in the eyes of Shui Xue, this is really nothing. But it is precisely because of these things that the Water Pavilion has become a hero in the hearts of the people of the world, a model among the younger generation, and everyone is in the limelight.

"Water boy, it's really you!" Hundreds of royal guards in yellow shirts surrounded the water pavilion like heroes, greeting non-stop, all of them were full of joy, and their simple smiles made the water pavilion warm in their hearts.

"Shui Gongzi, below is Shen Lianmeng, the leader of the first battalion of the Imperial Forest Army, who came to look for Shui Gongzi on the order of the emperor, and asked Shui Gongzi to enter the palace immediately. Accompanied by that neutral voice, a young man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist appeared, holding a long knife as tall as a person, looking majestic, and a scar on the side of his face showed that he had experienced an extraordinary past.

Shui Xie could see that this pipe belt named Shen Lianmeng must be a fierce general on the battlefield. From the index finger to the tiger's mouth, there are thick calluses, and most people don't like to use weapons that are too long, not only bulky, but also uncomfortable. Only those soldiers who have been in the battlefield for a long time, in order to pursue the maximum damage to the enemy, like to use this kind of long weapon that is more than one person high.

Based on this alone, Shui Xie was already in awe of the man in front of him.

"Excuse me, please lead the way. The water pavilion clenched his hands into fists, and was surrounded by a group of jubilant royal forest troops.

.....................

On the empty Jinluan Palace, there were only two people, the Water Pavilion and the Qing Emperor.

"Do you know a little about the situation outside?" Emperor Qing and Shui Xie were both direct people, and after a brief greeting between the two, they went straight to the point.

"Has Meng Luo started to attack the Central Plains in a big way?" Originally, the expression on his face had become more indifferent after experiencing this catastrophe, but after mentioning this matter, he couldn't help but frown on his face.

Emperor Qing's expression was not so indifferent, he shook his head, and said: "It's not a big attack, the armies of the two sides are facing each other in the Qinhe grassland, I don't know what Meng Luo means, he has changed the lightning tactics of the past quick battles and quick battles, and has been dragging the war on, I have asked Zhang Shangwu to rush to the western front, Da Gao is only able to resist now, if Meng Luo dispatches the elite ironclad battalion, I am afraid it will be very easy to tear a hole in our defense line." At that time, perhaps the army of the Central Plains will be like the previous dynasty, and it will only retreat to defend the state pass and resist it by virtue of its geographical advantages. ”

After a pause, Emperor Qing continued: "Of course, this is not what I want to see, and it is certainly not what you want to see. ”

"The people at the border must have moved inward on a large scale at this moment, and it is completely man-made to be forced to abandon their homes and be displaced. Shui Xie shook his head, thought about it slightly, and said, "Your Majesty, I want to go to the battlefield, go to the front line, and ask the emperor for permission." ”

Although the tone of the water pavilion is low, there is an indescribable firmness in it, as if it cannot be questioned, and it will not change.

Emperor Qing showed a faint appreciation in his eyebrows, looked at Shui Pavilion's firm expression, nodded slightly, and said: "I'm afraid that Meng Luo will make a big move this time, and your answer is exactly what I want you to do, if you tell me today that you choose to stay away from the war, I will definitely be very disappointed." ”

"The reason why I joined the war is to keep the people of the world away from the war in the future. Shui Xue's gaze turned into the distance, and there was a trace of contradiction in his eyes: "A man has a bloody life, and he must go to the battlefield." But I hope it doesn't happen. ”

Hearing this, Gao Yuanqing nodded silently, looking at the young man in front of him, feeling the aura of the water pavilion, his eyes gradually drifted, he seemed to see the elegant figure of more than twenty years ago, and the young man in front of him slowly merged into one.

Many stories that made the Qing Emperor Gao Yuanqing difficult to forget throughout his life finally gradually flooded his mind like a tide under the dust that he had consciously covered for many years......
