The middle-aged Confucian got up from the bed, first stretched out his hand and pointed at the flying dragon prostrate on the ground, let it shrink to the size of his palm, and sent it to Zhuge Chen's side, and then said: "Although I am a saint, even if I can't live with heaven and earth, it stands to reason that I can still live to this day, and it is far from being that long-lasting." It's just that the future of the Great Dao is close at hand, so how can we turn a blind eye? Dreams are something that even cultivators can't see through, and they can only figure out everything by themselves along the way. I don't ask you too much, in addition to practicing sword and boxing, it's enough to put some thought into this. ”

The middle-aged Confucian stretched his waist, and his fatigue was exhausted. And Zhuge Chen sat beside him, put the flying dragon on his shoulder, and said: "After all, the younger generation doesn't know what a dream is? What's more, the younger generation is still taking the road of integration, and the least afraid thing is to refute the complex. It's just that...... For the seniors, what they really want to see is nothing more than someone who can study the dream more thoroughly, and the blue is better than the blue, and the younger generation is not sure that they can do it. ”

"I don't have that in mind, it's just your own thinking. Now it seems that I am the heir to the mantle. The middle-aged Confucian said: "Since you already have three wonderful skills, do you mind having one more?" As you yourself said, since the pursuit is to integrate knowledge, there is not much difference between four and one. If you really have a heart, then take my place to see what the deepest part of the dream is like. If you really have a weak heart, of course you can stop there. I'm not going to force you to do what I can, forcing you to achieve a goal that even I, a saint who has been immersed in dreams for thousands of years, have not achieved. Relax and take over my mantle, but it doesn't mean that you are my personal disciple. It's nothing more than an extra connection, from the beginning of the ancient books, heaven and heaven are nothing more than you and me pursuing the truth of dreams. I will make him a dream keeper, and if you feel that there is someone more suitable in the future, you may wish to pass it on to him. As long as I can make sure that the incense continues, I am satisfied. ”

After saying this, it was obvious that the figure of the middle-aged Confucian was becoming more and more illusory, just like the moon in the sky reflected in the well, and the wind blew away.

One last glance at the flying dragon, the middle-aged Confucian turned into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared in front of Zhuge Chen.

......

When he opened his eyes, Zhuge Chen suddenly woke up from a big dream, looked at the beams above his head, and said, "What year is tonight?"

A young man who looked like an attendant beside Zhuge Chen hurriedly ran in from outside the door, came to Zhuge Chen's side and said, "What are you talking about, Childe? From the time you fell into a coma until now, it has only been two days. In the meantime, a wealthy merchant who claimed to be your friend came and said that time was running out and that he had to leave for Gangyang at once, and then he departed with a good man who looked like a coachman. Childe, this is a letter he left behind, you can take a look. ”

Zhuge Chen took the letter, looked at it in his palm, and then said to himself: "It turned out that it was the East Window Incident, and your ruthless brother and daughter-in-law not only wanted to occupy the family property, but also wanted to exterminate your lineage. is so vicious, it is really intolerable, and it is no wonder that he is so flustered. After I recuperate for a while, five days at most, I will leave. Counting the time, it should be just right. ”

What really didn't Zhuge Chen expect was of course not the woman's vicious heart. As a cultivator, he has never seen anything? It's just a bit of scheming, and it's hard to wait for the hall of elegance. Especially in the battle of the Great Dao, I am afraid that if you act like this, you will end up very badly. I didn't expect to be in the dream country for so long, and it was only two days. Does this prove that the whole dream country is really a dream? Or is it a small world that is like a dream, but with different rules and independent of itself? But for the sake of being here?

Just when Zhuge Chen was puzzled, he only heard a voice coming: "That sage's methods, unless you can understand what he has left, don't think about it." ”

This voice was the flying dragon sent by the middle-aged Confucian to protect him, and it stayed on his shoulder. Originally, it should have been put into the big sleeve, but there was a pair of dragons and phoenixes in one of them, and the coercion alone made him uncomfortable. The other one is guarded by a flying sword, contaminated with time, and it is afraid that if it is not careful, it will have its wings cut off, so it is better to stay outside and be able to breathe a long-lost breath. Fortunately, before coming out of the Dream Country, the middle-aged Confucian left a mark in order to prevent it from doing anything wrong. It can not only hide the breath of the dragon, but also provide it with shelter. will not be seen by outsiders and bring trouble to Zhuge Chen.

It can be said that there is only one saint who can think so thoroughly. If you change the position, Zhuge Chen is much more neat. Since the flying dragon wants to protect the way, it is tossed by it, as long as the person who is protected is safe and sound.

Listening to Feilong's advice, Zhuge Chen nodded lightly. Then he opened his mouth and said to the attendants beside him, "I want to ask my little brother, where is this, and how can I appear here?"

It was rare to meet such a gentle master, and the young man, who was an attendant, couldn't help but smile on his face, and he patiently explained to Zhuge Chen what had happened in the past few days. Of course, although his status is low, his words are very organized, and someone should have ordered him to answer like this.

It turned out that after entering the cave that day, the two powerful sect masters were naturally unable to enter the dream kingdom because they were not the people invited by the Confucian sages. But the priceless treasures in the cave still attracted their attention, and the two fought for it, and they were still evenly divided as usual. As for Zhuge Chen, he was put away as a treasure by another group of strength. It wasn't until he returned to his own territory that he found out that he was actually a big living person, so he hurriedly sent it into the house.

Just as Zhuge Chen wondered which group of forces could quietly take him away in the hands of Duanyang and Huanghuang, he only heard a hearty laugh coming from outside the door, and then a burly man with a beard walked into the room. As soon as he saw that Zhuge Chen had sat up, he came to the bedside, slapped Zhuge Chen's body with no weight, and said: "I'll just say, the kid who can sneak into that kind of place will definitely not be able to die easily." Now, our gang has a new right-hand man who has joined. ”

The bearded man didn't care what Zhuge Chen's opinion was, he grabbed Zhuge Chen's hand and put it in his palm, took out a pendant from his pocket, and then said: "Although our crazy gang is not a big sect like Duanyang Sect and Huanghuang Sect, it is very humane to win. If you want to leave that day, we will not stop you. These days, if you have nowhere to go, you should stay here for the first time, and you will not be short of a bite to eat. ”

Looking at the bold uncle in front of him, Zhuge Chen could only thank him again and again.

After a while, I saw two people walking in through the door. These two men, a man and a woman, are the right-hand men of the bearded man in the mad gang. Strange to say, these two lives are really complementary. Men and women and women and men, if you don't distinguish them carefully, you will admit your mistakes.

When the three of them left, Zhuge Chen learned from the mouth of the attendant that these two people were the dragon and phoenix fetuses, because they offended a cultivator who traveled all over the world when they were young, and they were cursed to end up in their current appearance. The attendant also specially warned Zhuge Chen not to joke about the appearance of those two, otherwise the helper would not be able to keep it. After all, the gang leader has also suffered hardships, and was once chased by the pair of dragon and phoenix twins with machetes for a whole night, until the other two finally put out the fire, and the gang leader dared to go back to sleep. Even so, the next day's retribution still didn't let the gang leader hide. His beloved horse was released during the night, and by the time he was recovered, he was skinny and skinny. To this day, the attendant still remembers that the helper at that time was holding his beloved horse and wanted to cry without tears. But the twins looked up at the sky and made it clear that they had nothing to do with me.

Sighing, Zhuge Chen moved a small bench and walked into the courtyard and sat on it to bask in the sun. The attendant who was busy sitting next to him after a while, and brought a handful of melon seeds.

The two chatted, and when no one walked in front of them, Zhuge Chen waved his hand to say hello.

Originally, such a peaceful afternoon would soon pass, but who would have expected that just as Zhuge Chen was about to clean the melon seed skin on the ground, many people from the crazy gang rushed towards the village. One of them came to him, made one word in three words, and said vaguely: "You are the newcomer, hurry up and put on your weapons, the bastards of the Emperor Huang Sect have finally done something to our crazy gang." Grandma's, now we have to let those little cubs see how good grandpa is. ”

In a word, the three generations, just when Zhuge Chen couldn't figure out his head, the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses he had just seen at that time had already thrown a suit of armor to him, and told him that if he wanted to fight for his life on the battlefield, it was best to wear it. The sword has no eyes, and if it pierces the intestines, the gods will not be able to save it.

It's a pity that Zhuge Chen, who was dressed in white, would not tolerate a piece of fishy armor on his body no matter what, and threw it aside, so he swaggered towards the city wall.

From a distance, the walls are actually very rudimentary. Not to mention that compared with Duanyang City, even some broken walls and ruins are neater than this. Walking up the city wall, Zhuge Chen looked like an inspector, hummed a little song, put down the small stool he had been holding in his hand, sat down next to the bearded man, and asked, "What's the matter?"

The bearded man turned his head, and after finding that it was the white-clothed young man who had joined the mad gang that he had only met for a while, he thought that the other party was here to mean the pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, so he didn't ask more. turned around and took out two pots of wine, threw one of the pots to Zhuge Chen, and said, "Can you drink it?" ”

Zhuge Chen took the wine in his hand with a smile, took a sip and said, "This wine ...... It's a little too spicy, isn't it?"

"Drinking is not spicy, what else does it mean?" The bearded man slapped Zhuge Chen's back again, almost knocking his qi machine away. If it weren't for being a sword cultivator, the sword qi had been circulating all over his body, and I was afraid that the wine that had just been drunk in his throat would have spewed out.

Stretching out his hand and pointing to the bottom of the city wall, Zhuge Chen opened his mouth and asked, "What does this mean?"

"What else can it mean, our mad gang has hindered the expansion of the Emperor Huang Sect, they are used to being domineering, so they will naturally send people to attack, which I have long expected. The bearded man said a little melancholy: "If it's just me, it's just a matter of giving up here." The world is so big that it can accommodate anywhere. It's just that the madness has so many brothers who trust me, and I can't let them down. I only hope that those wolf-hearted cubs of the Emperor Huangzong must not let me down. ”

Zhuge Chen nodded slightly, leaned back, and after realizing that he seemed to have hit something, he looked back. I saw that the pair of inseparable dragon and phoenix fetuses looked at themselves with a smile, as if they had come to ask the teacher to ask for guilt.

"I've been looking for you among the brothers for a long time but I haven't found you, I didn't expect you to be here? One of them spoke, holding the armor in his hand, and stepped forward to put it on Zhuge Chen's body.

Zhuge Chen, who couldn't bear to have his white clothes dirty, naturally kept refusing, but unfortunately it didn't work. Until the bearded man stood up to help him speak: "Little brother, this is the first day to join our crazy gang, how can there be such a reason for letting the family go to the battlefield if you don't enjoy it?" Just let him stay here, it's really not okay, I will be distracted to take care of him." ”

The younger sister in the dragon and phoenix womb said in a cold voice: "Helper, look down, although there are not thousands of troops around the city wall, there are hundreds of people, and they are all cultivators. Although our mad gang can be regarded as a large number of people, the mortals who have not even built a cultivation path account for most of the part. If we wait for the real confrontation, most of the losses will be us. When the time comes, I will definitely help the master, is it possible to guarantee that I can still watch the life of this young man?"

When she found that the bearded man was a little hesitant, she said to Zhuge Chen: "I know that you don't want to go to the battlefield, this is understandable, no one's life is two, naturally cherish it very much." But above this wall, it is far more dangerous than below. Those disciples of the Emperor Huang Sect will not only regard you as a target, but even the elders who are high enough in the realm will probably capture you first. Right now...... Do you want to stay here any longer?"

Zhuge Chen nodded, covered his nose, and motioned to the elder brother in the dragon and phoenix fetus to quickly take away the armor, and then moved the small bench forward. It was as if he was afraid that the archers under the city walls would not see him, and he would look like he was dead.

The dragon and phoenix fetuses glanced at each other, and they didn't bother to take care of Zhuge Chen, who was "self-defeating", and whispered a few words to the bearded man, and walked down the city wall. The two of them had to lead the mad gang to kill the enemy, so they didn't have time to spend here.

After the dragon and phoenix fetus left, the bearded man laughed and said: "I misjudged you, although it is a little white face, but the courage is indeed not small." Normally, I thought that the boys in the city were all embroidered pillows and straw bales! You are different, not like embroidered pillows. ”

Zhuge Chen was silent, so he listened to it as a good word. Anyway, the left ear goes in and the right ear goes out, and he can't even go back and forth above his state of mind. With a yawn, he glanced at the crossbowmen below who were about to bend their bows and shoot arrows, with rockets on their strings, which, if set on the walls, would set the thatch on fire, and the whole gang would be in a sea of fire in an instant.

Zhuge Chen silently shot out the gap flying sword, harvesting the lives of those crossbowmen. Although this matter makes it safer for Wyvern to do it, it is really overkill. What's more, as a protector, it is impossible to help stop everything. Otherwise, under the wings, no matter who you are, you will lose the infinite possibility of growing up.

"You already know the dangers of staying on the walls. I can assure you, she didn't lie to you. Now I'll give you another chance to choose, do you want to stay here, or what?" this time, the bearded man didn't joke, but said seriously. In fact, there are not many times of a year when he can take it seriously. But each time, it involves the life and death of the madmaniacs.

"How about staying here, how about not staying here? The city walls are already in the hands of the Emperor Huang Sect, even if I go out now, can I still make them open the net? It's better to stay here, it just so happens that I'm too lazy to move. Zhuge Chen swallowed the few remaining melon seeds in his hand, and said calmly: "Doesn't the helper know this? Or do you have the confidence to survive this disaster?"

The bearded man glanced at Zhuge Chen deeply, and said, "If the Sect Master of the Emperor Huang Sect hadn't come, he would be very sure. After repelling them, the opportunity to rectify left overnight, waiting for the opportunity to make a comeback. But if the Sect Master of the Realm of the Ultimate Dao also followed...... I'm afraid that the mad gang brothers will all die here today. ”

After Zhuge Chen heard this, he smiled but did not speak.

The bearded man in white clothes who didn't notice the change in his demeanor next to him continued to say: "I'm not afraid to bet on everything, I'm betting on the former, winning or losing!"

Looking at the back of the bearded man, Zhuge Chen said to himself: "With such a rare true temperament in the world, it's a pity to die." If you don't help him, it will be regarded as a reward for picking me up and saving me from the wind and sun. ”

Zhuge Chen slowly got up from the small bench, walked down the city wall step by step, and sat on the last step of the stairs, with one hand on his cheek, as if he was a little sleepy.

......

In order to deal with his sworn enemy, Duanyang Sect, Huanghuang Sect has actually been expanding externally over the years. All the big and small forces have been swallowed up, and they are not afraid to survive to death. It's just that even so, the overall strength is still roughly the same as that of the Duanyang Sect. It was not easy to wait until the "woman" sect master of his own family reached the realm of Zhen Dao, but he didn't expect that the old immortal of Duanyang Sect would also appreciate the scenery of Zhen Dao. Not only is the near-longevity re-energized, but also there is a great momentum of rejuvenation and old age.

Therefore, the Emperor Huangzong was desperate and chose to take action against the mad gang. After all, in this radius of a hundred miles, in addition to the two major sects of Duanyang Sect and Huanghuang Sect, the most powerful of the rest of the forces is the Crazy Gang. As long as they can take the territory of the mad gang into their own hands, then the rest of the forces will probably not dare not agree to their requests. Although these calculations are clanging, there are still many troubles in implementing them. Just the leader of the mad gang, the long knife master of the bamboo basket water realm, is not easy to deal with, and the whole sect, except for the sect master, is not an opponent. Therefore, the Emperor Huang Sect waited for the sect master to come out, and then attacked the mad gang in a big way.

Now under the city wall, it has not been built for a long time, and in the gorgeous palace hall, the "woman" sect master who has had a relationship with Zhuge Chen sits in the first place, stretches his body lazily, and talks to the elders of the sect beside him. Suddenly, he straightened his waist and smashed the elder's head with a slap, then stood up, laughed and said, "Do you really think that this sect master doesn't know that you are an internal agent sent by the Duanyang Sect? It's not okay to be an elder in our Emperor Huang Sect, you have to do your disgusting old profession. Tell me, don't you deserve to die?"

With that, his gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the main hall, and then he spoke: "Among you, I know that there must still be people from the Duanyang Sect. Of course, I don't bother to judge who it is. From now on, be your Emperor Huang Sect elder, and don't blame the past. If I know it in the future, one counts as one, but it's not just as simple as dying. I will draw out your souls and use them as lamp oil to light up the whole hall. Let it be lit up at night. Got it?"

No one below dared to respond, and the "woman" sect master didn't bother to continue to say anything, so he directly transferred to the room behind the main hall. There, there was a thin man, rubbing his palms, and looking at the "woman" sect master with a smile: "Sect Master, how did you consider the proposal that the royal family gave you? Do you want to help us kill the young man named Zhuge Chen?"

"Woman" Sect Master narrowed his eyes and said, "Can I ask, who is that Zhuge Chen?"

"Naturally. The thin man explained: "This person is a sword cultivator, not a member of our Dream Country, he should have been born in Dayan, but he practiced in the Kuhai Academy of Dashang. For some reason, he offended the royal family, and the emperor was far away from the sky, so he naturally couldn't make a move on him. But in the land of Yunmeng, if he still wants to return to Dayan or Dashang alive, it is naturally impossible. How, can you give me your answer?"

"Woman" The sect master nodded slightly, and then spoke: "Since I am helping the royal family, even if I have a thousand guts, I dare not refuse. What's more, it's a mutually beneficial deal. ”
