The world is bitter, but the world is worth it (II)

When Xun Fa arrived in Chang'an, Chang'an had already fallen for the second time.

At this time, the Shuohe Department had already withdrawn, but the atmosphere of this war was getting stronger and stronger.

In Tongzhou, there are often cases of monks hurting people, and the monks of the Confucius Temple and the monks in the court alone cannot control these people at all.

Every time, either when they arrived, only the victimized people were left, or there was a sect behind them, and the monks of the Confucius Temple did not dare to do anything; fortunately, many second-rate righteous sects also came, and they cooperated with the monks of the Holy Dynasty to maintain the stability of Tongzhou.

Now that the master of the Confucius Temple is seriously injured, the rule of non-interference between the court and the rivers and lakes is also in jeopardy.

If it weren't for the existence of the Sword Pavilion, I'm afraid that the master of the Demon Dao would have directly attacked the Holy Dynasty.

If the rules are not upheld, they are like a piece of paper.

But generally speaking, hurting people are some small sects of the Demon Dao, and the major sects of the Demon Dao not only did not hurt people, but also had a tacit understanding with the Righteous Dao and the Holy Dynasty to kill some alien races.

During this period of time in Tongzhou, there have been many cases of fierce beasts hurting people, and it has been reported to the public that fierce beasts have hurt people, but in fact, this is the handiwork of the demon clan.

Although the Demon Dao and the Righteous Path do not like each other, there is no internal strife when facing foreign races.

If in normal times, the two realms of righteousness and demons usually fight to divide the superiority, but now that there is a third party, then both sides have begun to use a third party to compete.

Today, the head of a giant beast is hung at the gate of Ling'an Mansion, and tomorrow there will be a sword immortal in Jing'an Mansion who will throw the corpse of the giant beast.

The two sides secretly competed, but it was the demon clan who was injured.

At the same time, not to mention Tongzhou, even some demon clans have appeared in the territory of the Northern Barbarians.

There are many people from the elder halls of various tribes, who don't care about wars, ignore tribal grievances, and only kill demon clans.

It seems that because of the serious injury of the master, the Sword Pavilion has disappeared, and the temptation of this Nine Dragons Talisman is extremely great.

At the same time, the descendants of Tianji Pavilion were born again, and they set up Tianji Towers in Chang'an, Nanhai Island, and Beiman, as long as the price paid was enough, they knew everything. Although it was only a group of junior disciples, their words caused an uproar.

But whenever they asked about this Nine Dragons Talisman, they replied with two words.

"Immortality. ”

Those who don't understand are confused, but those who understand are excited.

At the same time, this group of people also rebuilt the major martial arts lists, and there were detailed rankings from the Huixi Realm to the Great Sect Realm.

The strongest person at the Great Grandmaster level was naturally the Holy Emperor, but the strongest person in the Huixi Realm was not Xu Chang'an, but a young man called Shot.

-------------------------------------

-------------------------------------

The Holy Emperor, who was far away in Chang'an, was also worried in his heart, but he couldn't do anything.

He could only hope that Xu Changan could create a miracle and bring this Nine Dragon Talisman back.

The master can't count on it, no matter how bad it is, he also hopes that the righteous path can get this Nine Dragon Talisman, as long as he can get this Nine Dragon Talisman, he is willing to do whatever it takes.

He sat on top of the Qianlong Hall at this time, looked at the courtiers below, and narrowed his eyes.

"Didn't you go back to Tongzhou?"

Zhao Qingzhi didn't raise his head, half-kneeling on the ground, he knew that this was a big crime of resisting the decree.

But since beating Xu Changan and going to prison, has he resisted the decree once or twice?

"Minister, I am willing to rush to the snow-capped mountain with the dragon guard!"

When the Holy Emperor heard this, he stood up suddenly, a little surprised.

This is not because of how strong Zhao Qingzhi's strength is, his own strength is just a little grandmaster. But, it's an attitude!

"Old slave, I am also willing to rush to the snow-capped mountains, hoping for His Majesty's permission!"

"Old minister, petition to rush to the snow-capped mountain!"

The Holy Emperor looked at the two people who came in from outside the door, and there were tears in his eyes.

One is Hao Lianying, and the other is the former Taifu Ziling!

The Holy Emperor stood in place, speechless for a long time, then let out a long sigh and waved a token.

The token stood in front of the three of them, and the Holy Emperor's voice trembled a little: "To tell you the truth, above the court, I can trust my King Jin and Mr. Guo Jinghui, but when it comes to cultivators, I can only trust the three of you. "The Holy Emperor did not call himself "I", let alone "this Emperor".

"Thank you!" Zhao Qingzhi grinned.

Fu Ziling didn't say a word, but Hao Lianying couldn't kneel for a long time, and when he heard the Holy Emperor's words, his voice whimpered a little.

"This is the token for the transfer of the Offering Pavilion, I will hand it over to the three of you, there are eight of the Offering Pavilion Open Heaven Realm, seeing this order, you must obey it. Although the rules are like this, over the years, I have paid some price for asking them to help. If the three of them mobilize them, they can tell them what resources do they want to get this Nine Dragon Talisman, and the emperor will do everything in the world to find it, and not only that, but he is also willing to give up half of the control of the Chang'an Great Array!"

As soon as these words came out, the three of them were taken aback.

After a moment of silence, Zhao Qingzhi raised his head to look at the Holy Emperor's face, and finally sighed.

He knew that this Nine Dragons Talisman was the Holy Emperor's last hope, he didn't persuade, as soon as he grabbed the token, he immediately said, "Okay!"

Zhao Qingzhi stood up, looked at the two kneeling on the left and right, and said to them: "Two of you, let's go!"

When Hao Lianying and Fu Ziling heard this, they sighed, and finally took a deep look at the Holy Emperor before exiting the main hall.

-----------------------

-------------------------------------

The Holy Emperor unknowingly came to the East Palace.

The East Palace is inhabited by his two sons.

When Xuanyuan Rende saw his father coming, he hurried over to say goodbye. When the eldest prince saw his father coming, he hurriedly jumped down from the roof, and was about to kneel down to say goodbye, when the Holy Emperor's sleeves were slightly raised, and Xuanyuan's body stood up uncontrollably.

The Holy Emperor smiled and touched his youngest son's head and said, "Go in and write the homework left by the gentlemen!"

Xuanyuan Rende nodded obediently and entered the house.

The Holy Emperor glanced at the Great Prince standing beside him, jumped slightly, and landed on the roof.

The Holy Emperor sat on the roof, and the Great Emperor knew what his father meant, so he also jumped lightly and sat next to the Holy Emperor.

There is still some snow on the roof, and there is a residual sun hanging in the sky, it seems to have been forced to lose its vitality by this winter, although it is very red, but it is weak, and people can't feel a little warmth.

Back then, he and his sister sat next to his father left and right, but now, his sister's whereabouts are unknown. The scenery is still the same, and things are not people.

"The Nine Dragons Talisman appeared. ”

The Holy Emperor said lightly.

The eldest prince let out a "hmm" and did not speak.

"The Nine Dragons Talisman has a total of nine places sealed, and the master's piece is the most core, called 'Breaking Array'. The so-called broken array is the big array of Chang'an, not only the one I can control, but also the one in the sky. Back then, after the demon war, the Golden Dragon Emperor of the demon clan was sealed, and the breach was in the sky over Chang'an. Nine dragons need to match one before they can be opened. ”

A look of shock appeared in the eyes of the eldest prince.

But the Holy Emperor pretended not to see it and continued: "But the rest of the demon clan seals are in eight places. This Nine Dragons Talisman is rumored to be the only one made of the bone marrow of the nine sons of the five-clawed golden dragon, and the Nine Dragons Talisman in the master's hand should be engraved with a pepper diagram, and the name is broken. As for the two Nine Dragon Talismans in my hand, one of them is engraved with an owl's kiss and is called Extinguishing Flame. ”

The Holy Emperor paused, and then said, "This Nine Dragons Talisman is invulnerable to fire, and the seal it corresponds to is under the Iron Sword Mountain. There's also a breach in the Demon Clan's seal. The other, the one you brought back, is engraved with bian, which is called Xing Tie, and the seal corresponding to it is the Sword Prison of Shushan. With it, after entering Shu Mountain and making sacrifices, you can release the demon clan sealed there. ”

The heart of the eldest prince turned a monstrous wave, he didn't understand why such an important thing would be handed over to him so easily by Zhannan at the beginning.

The Holy Emperor Sohu saw the doubts in his son's heart, so he did not continue to introduce, but explained: "The Xiangliu clan should be sealed by the power of Lingyin Temple, and the corresponding Nine Dragons talisman is called Buddha Riding (ji), and Shushan should be the sworn enemy of the Xiangliu clan." It is rumored that the person who gets this Nine Dragons Talisman is extremely easy to cultivate the Buddha. That's why they gave you this Nine Dragons talisman. Besides, as long as you are controlled, it will be easy to get back the Nine Dragons Talisman in the future. ”

The eldest prince lowered his head, and the original doubts instantly understood, it turned out that the other party had been calculating himself.

And then again. "The Holy Emperor didn't care about his son.

"And it is rumored that this one on the snow-capped mountain is called immortality. What is engraved on it should be a swagger, and the seal it corresponds to should be somewhere in the South China Sea, but the most important thing is that this Nine Dragons Talisman can live and die people, flesh and bones. ”

When the eldest prince heard this, he looked at his father sharply.

The Holy Emperor, on the other hand, looked at the nine-story tower standing in Chang'an.

"It's your mother's last hope!"

The Holy Emperor said, his eyes moistening as he looked at the Nine-Storied Tower.

"So, I have to get it!" the Holy Emperor clenched his fists, trembling all over.

"But I promised you, Uncle Xu, that I will definitely defend Chang'an, and I will not let the demon clan ravage the world again!"

The Holy Emperor's voice softened and he looked at his son.

"If you don't get immortality, then you remember, hold your brother's ascend to the throne, and then give our two Nine Dragon Talismans to Xu Chang'an. Although I don't know how to destroy this Nine Dragon Talisman, I have looked through the ancient books, and I am almost certain that the Demon Sealing Sword Body can restrain or even destroy the Nine Dragon Talisman!"

The Great Prince sat in place, and the Holy Emperor was like the remnant sun.

Xuanyuan Chi looked at his father, his lips moving slightly.

"You, not the master of Zhongxing, if you are allowed to fight and kill, I can rest assured, but if you are in charge of the world and live a better life with the people, I am afraid that you will be bored. Now that your temperament is better, if you were to change to the old you, it is estimated that Mr. Guo Jinghui would put forward a different opinion, and you would kill others. ”

The Holy Emperor chuckled as he spoke, gently touching his son's hair, just as he had done when he was a child.

The eldest prince lowered his head and saw his younger brother who was studying seriously in the house, and a smile appeared on his face.

"However, if it is in the future...... What the father said is if, if the demon clan is ravaging, you can take its place. Remember, you must protect the people of this land. ”

After the Holy Emperor finished speaking, he jumped off the roof and left.

The eldest prince looked at his back and suddenly felt that his father was very lonely and a little sad.

He was stunned in place, and for the first time felt that his father was silently supporting the whole world.

-------------------------------------

-------------------------------------

After Xun Fa arrived, he immediately decided that the so-called scholars called for "human death is great" and "human rights", and directly opened Mei Lin

The body was dissected.

Fortunately, the master was injured, if the master was not injured, it is estimated that even if the Holy Emperor came, he might not be able to dissect it smoothly.

This is a gamble, if the evidence is found in the body, it will be fine, but if it is not found, it is estimated that he will lose the official position that he only obtained by Xu Changan's recommendation.

But things went surprisingly well, and the residual poison was found in Mei Linkai's body.

Even if Mei Ruolan's testimony is not credible, Xu Changan's suspicion has been cleared.

Therefore, this time Xu Changan and Qing Jiu met on the streets of Pingkangfang.

The flow of people is bustling and comings and goings.

Mei Ruolan was also taken out by Xu Changan, but she refused to return to the Hou Ye's mansion. After Mei Ruolan passed this time, she always lowered her head, didn't say a word, and followed Xu Changan like a fart.

Xu Changan knew that she owed something to herself, but she really didn't feel at ease about it.

If she went back to the Hou Ye's Mansion by herself, she would stand at the door.

Xu Changan didn't come out, and she didn't go in, just stood like that.

Xu Changan had no choice but to come to this Huanxi Building to live for two days.

Mei Ruolan was eating noodles at the noodle stall, and there was an alley opposite, and she stared at the alley viciously.

It was because of this alley that she was deceived and almost made a big mistake.

"Are you sure you want to talk about the two of you here?" Qing Jiu was a little helpless.

Xu Changan glanced at Mei Ruolan, and also looked helpless.

"There's no way around it. ”

"Okay, when are you going to go to Manxue Mountain?" Qing Jiu asked directly.

"As soon as possible!" It was winter, and there was a burst of white air rising from the street stalls.

"Don't you want to die?" Qing Jiu teased.

Xu Changan glanced at him and shook his head.

"It's useless for you to die, if the Heaven Realm spirit enters the body, what should come will still come. ”

When Xu Changan heard this, he immediately patted himself on the head.

At that time, after he learned that the Nine Dragon Talisman still had a way to open the seal, his first reaction was to seek death.

"Then why didn't you say it earlier. Xu Changan asked rhetorically.

He never thought that the two people who had to separate life and death when they met before would actually sit together and chat today.

"Okay, the people of the demon clan have been following you, if you go out, you will definitely be intercepted and killed. ”

When Xu Changan heard this, his face became solemn.

"Moreover, your senior brother's child is about to be born recently, and as for the little master, he took the lead in going to Manxue Mountain. ”

Xu Changan lowered his head and was silent.

What Qing Jiu said was the truth, although he was able to fight the little grandmaster, but in front of the demon clan, it would seem vulnerable.

"Why don't you give up?" Qing Jiu sighed.

"Fart!" Xu Changan jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on.

"Why do you want to open it now?" Qing Jiu scoffed.

Xu Changan sat down, looked at these streets, and suddenly said: "Look at the smiles on the faces of these people, look at the lively streets, and figure it out." ”

"You just see their smiles when they go shopping, but you don't see the suffering side of the world. ”

Xu Changan let out an "oh" and followed Qing Jiu's gaze.

I saw an old man on the opposite side of the road, curled up, his clothes in tatters, shivering in the cold wind.

"The old man is sixty-seven, and he has been driven out by his children and has been exiled here. Qing Jiu looked at the old man, his eyes were flat as usual, and said directly.

"How do you know?" Xu Changan was puzzled.

"I lived in your Huanxi Building for three days, and I saw him on the first day, so I went to check it out when I was bored. I can't practice the Fa now, so I can only find something to do to pass the time. Qing Jiu shrugged his shoulders.

"Actually, you just saw the prosperity of Chang'an, I was chased all the way over, and I saw the hardships of many people. When he came out of the devil's path, he also saw people's hearts clearly. ”

"Sometimes, in fact, perdition is the best solution, and the world is hard!"

Qing Jiu continued, letting out a hint of emotion.

"I used to kill people without mercy, but I don't know why, as I killed more, I actually had compassion, you said it's ridiculous? Sometimes, I think, in fact, death is also a kind of salvation for them. ”

At this time, a group of drunken young men came over and kicked at the old man for some unknown reason.

Xu Changan was about to stop him, but he was immediately blocked by Qing Jiu.

"There are so many such people in the world, how many can you help?"

When Xu Changan heard his words, his eyes darkened.

Qing Jiu stood up and glanced at Mei Ruolan.

"Don't keep your head down, Xu Changan didn't blame you, he is such a soft-hearted person, he won't blame people. ”

With that, he walked towards Huanxi Building.

But he only walked a few steps before being stopped by Xu Changan.

"The world is suffering, but the world is worth it. ”

He turned his head and saw Xu Changan say with a smile, and then walked in front of him with Mei Ruolan.

Qing Jiu turned his head to look, only to see the owners of several stalls surrounding the group of young people.

Qing Jiu shook his head and looked at Xu Changan's back and smiled slightly.

The nine sons and functions corresponding to the nine dragon charms will be the first to be placed in the sticker.

A sword Chang'an.

Seek all kinds.
