Chapter Eighty-Three: The Lost Hope

Wangyue Courtyard, but more than 20 acres, five or six houses, more than 10 apricot and plums, neatly trimmed shrub belt to protect the delicate flower garden in it. The courtyard is not big, but there is also water, there is also a bridge, and there is a small rockery in the pond in the courtyard, and a few golden fish chase and play in the pond.

The owner of the annex did not have the ease of a fish, and the prince sat at the desk in the study, frowning. He held a stack of papers in his hand, all of which had just been sent from all over the world, but his attention was not on the words between the papers, and he looked through the door at an almond tree in the distance.

A gray-haired staff member at the desk looked at the public with a worried look in his eyes. It's been like this since the adults came back from Little Rock Mountain. The White Cow Town has sent people to talk several times, and the lady asked when the adult would go home, but the adult just sent the visitor away without replying. In the past, as long as adults encountered troubles, they would go to live in other hospitals, but looking at the current situation, this time I am afraid that it will take a long time.

"Your Excellency is worried about the Buhu Village Casino?"

The staff's questioning pulled the public loss back from his state of distraction, he smiled, and shook his head slightly: "It's just a few lucky children who have a temporary idea, it's not enough." ”

"However, after all, they are the children of the Yang family, if they know the secret of Buhu Village, I am afraid that the one above will be ......."

Without waiting for the staff to finish speaking, Gong Shiwang interrupted his words, "If they have bad intentions, why should they admit that they are the children of the Yang family, could it be that the Yang family is all fools?

"But why would they be so stupid as to exchange 700,000 seeds for five minutes of meeting time? ”

Gong Yiwang handed a piece of paper to his staff, "Liu Yi has copied their conversation to me as it is, and I don't see anything wrong." Even if something is wrong, it involves the Yang family, I will suppress it. ”

The staff carefully read the words on the paper, and found nothing suspicious, and handed the paper back to the public.

"Since it's not for this, but because of the matter of Qigong Village?"

The public still shook his head lightly: "Our losses are not small, but they are all peripheral personnel, and it is not worth me to be sad about this." Lao Jiu is ruthless enough, and he will be assigned to Sifang Mountain, and I don't know how many of these people can survive. ”

"It's a pity that Hou Yu escaped. ”

"Hou Yu is just a pawn, after all, Xiang Yu and I are still working together, as long as I don't do anything against the above, what can this hypocritical fat man do to me?" ”

He put the paper in his hand on the desk, rubbed his eyebrows, and said, "Go out for a walk with me." ”

At the edge of the pond, the staff handed over a bag of fish food, twisted a few grains, and threw them into the pool, causing the fish to scramble restlessly.

"Xiang Yu and I, how can we not be the fish in this pool, and we throw a bait on it, and we compete for it, even if the bait is poisonous. The only difference between us is that he is genuinely useful, and I must rejoice against my heart. At this time, the public lost hope and threw some fish food into it, and the water in the pond fluctuated even more, "Since the time in my hometown, you have been with me for thousands of years, you are the only person I can trust, and there are some things that should be told to you." ”

The students listened. ”

"Let me ask you, what do you think of those people?"

"Mayflies shake trees, and they can't become climate. ”

"What do you think of Mr. Nine?"

"The dragon and the phoenix among the people, the good horse among the horses. ”

"Then what do you think of the current public loss?"

"My lord, please forgive the students for offending. When you are in your hometown, you will reduce or exempt harsh taxes, donate money to the poor, build water conservancy, open up wasteland and expand fields, encourage mulberry picking and weaving, and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, and the people will love you. The adults of today are the same as they were in the past. ”

Gong Lost Hope smiled and said, "Then why didn't you vote for Mr. Nine?"

The staff straightened his chest and looked solemn: "My lord treats me like an eldest brother, how can I bear to abandon you." I, Qin Anxu, never thought that I was a gentleman, if the adult did something wrong, I would follow the mistake, if the adult went to the dark, I would help the adult. ”

"Haha," Gong Yiwang smiled for the first time since Xiao Shishan came back, "You are not a gentleman, but your brother is a gentleman, he has been the village chief of Mengfan Village for thousands of years, and he is still alone." Although he is a little smaller, he can still vaguely see my shadow back then. ”

"Qin Anhong has his beliefs, and I also have my own persistence. ”

"Do you still have contacts?"

"We broke off contact a few years ago, and I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, I will say something that shouldn't be said. ”

Looking at this old subordinate who had followed him for thousands of years, Gong Lost Wang sighed in his heart, among the four people who came with him from his hometown, one of them became soul blind after taking Benin's elixir five thousand years ago and committed suicide, one died of old age, and one person thanked Mei Fu's persistence and went to Taotang. Qin Anxu was the only one left around.

"Do you know why I followed that one?" Gong Yiwang threw this question out, Qin Anxu didn't answer, he listened quietly. "It's ridiculous to say, the upright children of the Mo family have now become the most afraid of death. Jiuqiu gave me endless years, Guan Hang, who was ten years younger, died of old age, and you have also reached the age of sixties, but I am still middle-aged. The longer a person lives, the more he fears death. ”

"But what does this have to do with the one above, does he dare to kill you, or does the longevity of adults have something to do with him?"

Gong Lost Wang pointed to his eyebrows: "He planted a shackle on my heart." ”

Qin Anxu was shocked: "When did this happen?"

Gong Yiwang picked up a few more fish food and threw them into the water, "Do you remember when he visited?"

Qin Anxu nodded, nine years ago, the red bat brought his self-brewed fruit wine and drank it with the adults in the study, and the transformation of the adults was after the red bat left.

"I was drugged in the wine, and after only one drink, my consciousness was no longer clear, and the shackles were planted at that time. All these years, I have been living in fear, for fear that if I say the wrong thing in front of outsiders, it will suddenly explode and turn me into a madman. I introduced you to the organization, and you are the person of the organization, so I don't worry that talking to you will lead to the shackles of the heart. But I've never let you be involved in the organization's affairs, because if you do, you'll follow in my footsteps. ”

Qin Anxu clenched his fists, his body trembled slightly, he gritted his teeth and said, "This person is really hateful, and his methods are really inferior." ”

"At that time, his skills were still shallow, and I relied on hard work to loosen the shackles little by little, but this time I went to Xiaoshi Mountain, and the shackles were strengthened again. These days, I have been trying, I can no longer shake the slightest, this road has finally become a point of no return. ”

Qin Anxu clenched his fists and bowed: "The student will accompany the adult to finish this journey." ”

Gong Yiwang shook his head: "The tree god treats me well, although I have no choice, but I don't want to do too much." I've kept you out of it, just thinking that you could remind me from time to time. When I say this to you today, I know that there is no hope of getting out. I don't want your foolishness, I want you to speak and argue, so that when I am dizzy, you can rebuke me and wake me up. It's ridiculous, we are soul cultivators, but we are serving a person who is committed to eliminating soul cultivators. ”

"Now that the adults have made up their minds, why don't you secretly create some small troubles and delay the construction over there?"

"It's inconvenient for me to do this. ”

The students then went to find a few reliable people. ”

Gong Yiwang pondered for a moment before saying, "Pay attention to proportion." ”

"Your Excellency, these things have nothing to do with us, and we will not anger that one too much. ”

"The longer the better. ”

Qin Anxu should be "yes".

Relieved, he grabbed a handful of fish food and threw it into the pool, and the water rolled up. Qin Anxu looked at the fish that were grabbing food, his brows were furrowed, and there were a few more wrinkles on his forehead. "My lord, do you want this fish to ......?"

"How's this fish?"

"When the courtyard was just completed, these golden fish suddenly appeared in the pond, and they all thought it was a good omen, but they didn't expect to attract that one, where is this auspicious omen, it is clearly a bad omen. ”

The fish in the pond were pushing each other for the remnants of the fish, and one of them, as if they could not stand it anymore, or were tired of it, jumped out of the water, crossed a golden arc in the air, and re-entered the water, and joined the scramble again. "I have never told you about this, but in order to create a false omen, I went to ask the Dryad for these fish, and I promised to treat them well. Whether the man comes or not, what does it have to do with the fish?"

"I see, it's the students who are stupid. Qin Anxu was a little embarrassed, if the adults really thought it was a bad omen, why wait for him to come to suggest now, he changed his words: "Mr. Nine, do you need to contact him?" I heard that he is also a good soul player. Qin Anxu pointed to his eyebrows.

Gong Yiwang knew that Qin Anxu was referring to the shackles of his heart, he shook his head and said, "If I am not ten percent sure, I don't want to ask him for help." If you want my life, even if it is thousands of miles away, that one only needs to move his thoughts, if he has murderous intentions, the gods will not be able to save him. ”

"The Tree God-sama can't do anything about him?"

"He's hiding in a place out of the reach of the Tree God, who can help him? Otherwise, those dead soldiers alone will be enough to make him go to the Sifang Mountain a hundred times. ”

"What if you find some irrelevant wrestlers to enter Taoyuan and get people?"

"Others can't see it, but how can they hide it from me, the one in Taoyuan is not his deity, it's just a split soul, Taoyuan has always been his old servant taking care of it. But even so, I don't have the slightest desire to resist. ”

"He's so powerful?"

"Beyond your imagination, his strength lies in the fact that once you are controlled by him, you will become a monkey in the hands of the Buddha, and life and death are only in his thoughts. But if he has not been shackled, there is no need to be overly afraid of him. Gong Yiwang threw the last few grains of food in his hand into the water, "The road ahead is unpredictable, if something happens to me one day, you can go to Lao Jiu." With your intellect, he will have a place for you. ”

Qin Anxu knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and said, "If this is the case, the students will not go anywhere, and they are willing to be the guardians of adults." ”

Gong Wang knew his temperament, and he didn't persuade him: "Clean up tonight, we will go back to Bainiu Town tomorrow, the affairs of the town should be dealt with, and Mrs. has come to ask a few times." The annex is a little off-track, and when you go back, it will be easier for you to act. ”

Gong Cheng looked up at Jigong Mountain in the distance, and finally sighed leisurely.
