225 Destiny (5)
"Shan is just a commoner, but he doesn't have the magnanimity to think about any glory and wealth. www.biquge.info Shan Jiquan said, "I admire the Divine Monarch - there are people in this world who can compete for the world, at least the power of the rivers and lakes, even if there are not many, there are always three or five, but in the end, the person who has achieved the 'order to move the government and the opposition' is probably only you, the Divine Monarch." But if the Tuoba Sect Master was really the same as he was back then, I might not have followed it to this day-just because to do that, there is always a price, and I have a family and a small family now, and I am no longer the Zhuo Yan I used to be. Why don't you take a look at those opponents back then, whether it is the Tuoba Sect Master, or Ling Li, they are all people with families and wives and children. They are much more sluggish, but they may not be unhappy, and I am happy to be in their company, but you, the gods, may not be able to understand it. ”
"Are you ridiculing me Suzaku for being alone!?" Suzaku said in a cold tone, and actually pulled up the okra that was stroking the qin beside him, "Zhuo Yan, you see, my Suzaku also has a daughter now, and I have an apprentice to inherit this martial arts - what, do you think I can't get the so-called 'happiness' you say!?"
The sound of the piano was abruptly cut off by this pull. Shan Jiquan looked at okra and did not speak. He didn't want to and couldn't bear to debunk the loneliness in his tone. He didn't know why Suzaku believed that okra was his daughter, but he knew that these words were enough to pierce his heart.
He suddenly couldn't imagine how Suzaku would react if he knew that his only apprentice was in his hands. This made him inexplicably a little frightened, licked his lips, looked at Baishuang's tombstone, and only hoped that Guan Fei would be able to pass by soon.
This place is actually some distance from the mouth of Qinglong Valley, and it is not the right way after leaving the valley, but he has enough reason to believe that Guan Fei should come here for a turn.
-- Just this afternoon, he had invited Guan Fei to talk privately -- he wanted to find out if Bai Shuang's background was really as he had guessed. He mentioned the name Du Ruoyun to Guan Feixu, and the old man was silent for a long time. Hearing that he was silent, Shan Jiquan simply poured out his guesses one by one, waiting for him to admit or deny, but he didn't even have to talk about it to the end, he only needed to look at the shocked look on Guan Fei's face that could not be concealed by decades of sinking, and he knew that everything should be the truth that could not be erased even if he did not admit it.
As he expected, Guan Feiyun didn't even know that Du Ruoyun later gave birth to a daughter called Baishuang for him. According to what he said, ten years later, he and everyone in the Phantom Realm went to participate in the meeting of the three branches, but Du Ruoyun and Ye Zhitan did not come that time. He heard that Ye Zhitan seemed to have broken away from the Yanshan faction a few years ago, and there was no news for a long time, but Guan Feiyu had already married a wife at that time, and when he heard these news, he didn't care much about it anymore. He didn't go the next two times, until the one forty years later, when he saw Du Ruoyun again. At that time, his wife died of illness, and suddenly reunited with Du Ruoyun, both of them had spotted temples, and they were just speechless and unable to say a word in that reunion. He only learned that Du Ruoyun had never married, but what if he knew?
Shan Jiquan had no way to comment on this, he could only tell him that the daughter he had never met had also passed away a long time ago, and the place where his bones were buried was outside this Qinglong Valley. Since Guan Fei would come all the way to answer for his son, he expected that he was not a person who was not kind to his children, so he would definitely come to this white frost grave to take a look before leaving.
On the other side, it took a long time for Suzaku to loosen the okra, and the atmosphere like the tightly pulled strings finally loosened a little. "Alright, you take me to Taniguchi. He opened his mouth and said to Shan Jiquan, "If I can't see Guan Feishu today, don't blame me for attacking the Qinglong Sect." ”
"Actually—just wait here, because ......," Shan Jiquan was about to explain, when suddenly a voice snorted, "Don't bother. ”
Shan Jiquan was taken aback. How did he get the news so quickly?
"Tuoba Gu?" Suzaku didn't need to see anyone, he knew who it was, and he snorted back towards the black and empty forest, "You're finally here—you should have come a long time ago!"
Tuoba Gu's figure finally slowly appeared in the forest. He is tall, and when he appears, he has a kind of non-anger and self-authority, and his awe-inspiring aura is also extremely strong, which can be very different from the cold of Suzaku.
Shan Jiquan expected that he hadn't hidden it from him after all, and there was no way to do it at this time. He saw that Tuoba Gu came alone, and he didn't see Guan Feigu and the others, his heart sank, and he said, "Sect Master, Guan Fei's ......"
"I've let them go first. Tuoba Gudao, "This matter is none of the business. Suzaku, today--I am afraid that you and I will have a break. ”
Shan Jiquan was shocked in his heart. "They're gone?" - Didn't this ruin another move for him?--"But Master, I ......"
"Shut up, who allows you to make your own decisions?" Tuoba Gu said angrily, "Shan Xianxian, you should know that this seat is already impatient to wait today!"
Shan Jiquan was silent. All those plans that hoped to lure Suzaku's spearhead to Guan Feizhi and Guan Mo were just his own thoughts of seeking compromise and Tuoba Gu had never approved. He didn't want Tuoba Gu to know about Suzaku's arrival so quickly, and his intention was also this, but now that Tuoba Gu had arrived, even though he had only persuaded Suzaku, he couldn't convince himself, the leader of the Blue Dragon Sect.
"I mean--Sect Master, don't fall for their plan to divert the tiger from the mountain again!" Shan Jiquan could only say, "The last time the Sect Leader was not in the valley, the Black Bamboo Society had entered the valley and acted recklessly, this time the people of the Black Bamboo Society have not been seen so far, who knows if it is the same plan, while the sect leader lured out of the valley for the Vermilion Bird Divine Monarch, they will ......"
"The valley has its own Huo right envoy arrangement. ”
"Leader ......"
"That's a good point. Suzaku already sneered, "Shan Xianfeng is worthy of being a roundworm in my belly." Do you think that the group surnamed Guan can go? The people of the Black Bamboo Society--they should have arrived in the Qinglong Valley at this time. ”
Tuoba Gu's face remained unchanged, but he just glanced at Shan Jiquan and said, "You go back too." ”
Shan Jiquan actually seemed a little undecided, thinking about how true Suzaku's sneer was.
-- From Suzaku's standpoint, what he wanted more in his heart this time must be Guan Feigu than Tuoba Gu, if he could, he would definitely abandon Tuoba Gu and chase Guan Fei Gu away, but perhaps knowing that Tuoba Gu would not let him go easily, he had to pretend to be calm, saying that the Black Bamboo Society had already planned to besiege Tuoba Gu, which made Tuoba Gu uneasy. Shan Jiquan expected that if he really went back and left Tuoba alone, he and Suzaku were in the middle of the martial arts, and the other party had one more okra, and it would be difficult for Tuoba Gu to win.
-- But if you don't leave, then what if the siege of the Black Bamboo Society is true? In any case, the Black Bamboo Society has not yet appeared--since it is not by the side of Suzaku, the only place to go is the Qinglong Valley, which by no means seems alarmist. Last time, he and Tuoba Gu were not in the valley, so that they suffered a big loss from the Black Bamboo Society, could it be that in the same situation, they should be planted again?
The hesitation in his heart was only for a moment, he knew that he had to make up his mind, and immediately gritted his teeth and said: "As the left vanguard of the Qinglong Sect, how can Shan Jiquan abandon the sect leader alone. Now that the sect leader has made up his mind, then we will make a quick decision here, and then return to the Qinglong Valley to solve the remaining troubles. ”
Suzaku sneered. "Okay, then we might as well explain the conditions, if I win today, Tuoba Sect Master, I want you to hand over all the people of the Guan family to me, and I will dispose of them, and I will not interfere - shouldn't this be excessive?"
Tuoba Gu was still angry in his heart, "My subordinates are defeated, and they dare to talk about some conditions-very good, if you are defeated by me again, I only need your life, and I have the right to give an explanation to my brother who died in Qinglong Valley last year!"
Suzaku frowned. If Tuoba Gu asked himself not to trouble the Blue Dragon Sect from now on, it would still be a statement, but when he turned over the old account from last year - he felt that the matter should not be counted on his head - it was the Black Bamboo Club that did it, and it was Zhang Ting who came forward to buy the business of the Black Bamboo Club at that time, and the Black Bamboo Club gradually became his power after that. But how can that be said clearly? He simply smiled indifferently. "Whatever you want. ”
――Arbitrary. Yes, who would have thought that this may be the most extreme duel between the two in the world, and it would be convenient to unfold in such a dense and somewhat narrow forest in just a few words. They haven't had a moment for more than ten years, and there was a confrontation on last year's Emperor Taishang's cruise ship, which can only be called "friction". The two of them had their own tentative intentions, but they did not do their best, and ended with Tuoba Gu's superiority. But they all knew in their hearts that Suzaku's "parting intention" had not yet been made - how could it be called a real "duel" if that intention had not been made?
Tuoba Gu, who has practiced the seventh layer of the Qinglong Mental Method, has a surging true power, and he should not be afraid of the huge counterattack power of the "parting intention" - but that was more than ten years ago. The Qinglong Mental Method has been passed down from generation to generation by his Tuoba family, and he has practiced it to the peak of perfection, but Suzaku's "Mirror Technique" mental method was created by him himself -- how did he know that he had made no new progress in the past ten years, and that he had not taken a step forward in addition to the seemingly endless "parting intention"? Tuoba Gu was always troubled by the fact that although he was invincible throughout the rivers and lakes, he himself had never broken through the inheritance of his predecessors -- all this was only inherited from others after all, and compared to Suzaku, he was inferior at this level after all.
In the sweltering woods, only the noise of cicadas could be heard—perhaps because the sound of the piano had stopped, and the sudden silence of the place. The silence was a sudden oppression. Okra holding the piano. There was also sweat running down her neck. She seemed to have just seen the light gaps in this place that could not be covered by broken leaves changing silently on the ground, as if she was also guessing the outcome of this duel. None of this was what she expected—how could Suzaku lose to anyone? For the first time, she had seen a murderous aura that could be equal to that of Suzaku, and that aura was even more arrogant because of the heat. Is the sweat on his neck because the blazing heat has aggravated the summer heat, or is it ...... Or are you really nervous? What if Suzaku really loses?
