Chapter 232: Xun Yi Master
In a large thick fog, Xiao Yunfan walked barefoot on the cold ground in thin clothes. He only felt that a cold air seemed to penetrate the Heavenly Spirit Cover from the soles of his feet, and he couldn't help but tremble all over.
He craned his neck and looked into the distance, where a towering archway stood in front of him, with four ancient seals written on it: "Infinite Fantasy Realm". He walked through the archway and came to a world of pink and jade glass. On both sides of the path, plum blossoms as red as fire are planted, and the branches are sparse and sloping, and the standard is unconventional.
Probably because it was too cold, he felt that his hands and feet were a little numb, as if every step was extremely painful and difficult. I had no choice but to stop, rubbing my hands to give birth to a little warmth, and then put it on my ears to keep warm. The chill had no intention of retreating.
His teeth chattered, and he looked at the sky in misery, and a snowflake fell lightly, like a feather. He stretched out his palm, and the tiny snowflake instantly melted, turning into a crystal drop of water.
The snow became heavier and heavier, as if weaving a white curtain between heaven and earth. Under the heavy curtains, the man could no longer open his eyes, and just when he felt the most desperate, the snow suddenly stopped again. Not far in front of him, a row of huge icicles lined up neatly. Looking at the crystal clear, crystal-like spectacle, Xiao Yunfan felt a trace of joy in his heart.
He approached the icicle, and a face was reflected in the icicle. He looked at the face with a feeling that was both familiar and unfamiliar. Just as he was startled, a voice behind him shouted, "Yun Fan!" He turned around and saw a bearded man in purple, who looked at him and smiled. Suddenly, there was a flower in front of him, and the big man didn't know where he went, and a woman in a goose yellow gauze looked at him and shouted, "Xiao Lang!"
He was very surprised in his heart, and said to himself: "One of them calls me Yunfan, and the other calls me Xiao Lang, should I be surnamed Xiao, is it called Xiao Yunfan? Xiao Yunfan, Xiao Yunfan, it turns out that Xiao Yunfan is me." As he pondered, the icicles in front of him vanished.
Boom, thunder rolling in the sky. A white light slashed, and he screamed, and the ground under his feet cracked a huge opening, and his whole body suddenly fell into a dark abyss. He desperately tried to grab something, but he couldn't.
"Ah!" shouted loudly, Xiao Yunfan woke up, and the big man was dripping. He tried to sit up, but felt a sharp pain in his chest, and then collapsed, his head resting on the soft pillow. He was tied with a thick bandage on his chest, and as soon as he exerted his strength, he unconsciously touched the wound, and it hurt hotly.
There was a woman with an extraordinary temperament standing beside his bed, this woman had a pretty face, looked at him with silky eyes and smiled: "Thank God, you finally woke up." Xiao Yunfan looked at her and said, "Are you?" Mrs. Rose said: "Why is it so sick that I forgot about it?" Xiao Yunfan said: "You are Mrs. Rose." ”
Madame Rose smiled, "I am naturally Madame Rose, but now I am your handmaiden. ”
Xiao Yunfan said: "Don't dare to do that." Mrs. Rose blinked and said, "You don't dare to be everything, what are you pretentious?" As she spoke, she sat on the edge of the bed, reached out and touched his forehead, and said faintly: "It's not very hot, it seems that Elder Xu's medical skills are really good." If you remember me, you should remember our agreement.
You haven't broken your promise, so I can tell you anything you want to know. Xiao Yunfan recalled the scene of that night, and also recalled his appointment with Madame Rose. said: "I'm afraid it's not necessary now. Mrs. Rose said curiously: "Why?" Xiao Yunfan said: "I had a dream just now, and I seem to remember all the things before. ”
Madame Rose shook her head and smiled, "Yes? Truth be told, you're in a lot of luck. If an ordinary person is struck by a bird, he will definitely die.
But the projectile fired by the bird that hit you hit you hit your ribs, and your ribs were hard enough, so they didn't hurt your heart, otherwise it would be difficult for even Da Luo Jinxian to come back to life.
With the best doctor in my dark city to treat your wounds, your fate has been taken back from Hades. Xiao Yunfan said: "People like me, the king of Hades hates it when he sees it." ”
Madame Rose said, "You are more than annoying, you are simply abominable. She said with a coquettish smile.
She looked at Xiao Yunfan's handsome face and said quietly: "Do you know, I originally planned to keep you by my side as a guard, but ......" Xiao Yunfan said: "But what?" Mrs. Rose said: "But my master has commanded, and it is up to you to go or stay." Xiao Yunfan said: "Your master, who is he? Does he also recognize me?"
Mrs. Rose said, "My master respects Mr. Xunyi. He is the king of this dark city, and our four great forces are at his disposal. By the way, do you know who is going to kill you?" Xiao Yunfan smiled bitterly: "I have too many enemies, I'm afraid I can't count them." Mrs. Rose said: "Then let me tell you, the person who wants to kill you is called Su Changmao, and he is a ghost from the Sect." ”
Xiao Yunfan was taken aback in his heart and asked, "Su Changmao, why did he come here?" Mrs. Rose said: "He came here to buy fuel resin for the airship, and we are the only ones who can mine this resin." This surnamed Su is a guest invited by Charlie, the lord of Fort Wanwu. The bird gun that plotted against you is Charlie's goods.
If something like this happens, the Lord of Wanwu Fort will naturally be involved. The master has already ordered Su Changmao to be arrested, so you can rest assured of this. The Dark City is an underground city-state, and we only do business. But there are always rules to do business. We can ignore the grievances between the people of the Ghost Sect and you, but since he chose to do it in our territory, he made it clear that he did not take the master in his eyes.
Is it tolerable or unbearable, I see that the master is really angry this time, and the lord of Wanwu Fort has been imprisoned. And the four elders were also sent, whether they were ghosts or gods, and they would not end well if they offended our master. To my surprise, my master seems to appreciate you, and has made me, the lord of the city, serve you. ”
Xiao Yunfan smiled: "Do you feel wronged?" Mrs. Rose said with a smile on her face: "You have earned a lot of money for me, for the sake of money, it doesn't seem too much to be nice to you." Xiao Yunfan said: "I'm also very interested in the master of your family, I don't know when I can meet him?" Mrs. Rose said: "It's not easy to say, it depends on his old man's mood." "Zero Long Literature Network
After a few days, Xiao Yunfan's injuries had recovered and he was able to walk around on the ground. And the mysterious lord of the Netherworld intends to receive him. In a spacious hall, there was a round table with wine glasses and jugs, all made of white jade and shiny. On the opposite side of the table sat a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy wearing a jasper hairpin, a silk robe, and a jade cup in his hand. When he saw Xiao Yunfan coming in, he stretched out his hand and said, "Sit." ”
Xiao Yunfan couldn't help but be surprised, he really couldn't imagine that the owner of this dignified and dark city was actually a teenager. The young man's clear eyes seemed to see through his thoughts, and he smiled: "Brother Xiao probably doesn't believe that the Lord of the Hidden Capital will be such a young man. Xiao Yunfan said: "That's right, I really didn't expect that you would become the lord of this secluded capital at such a young age." ”
The young man put down the jade cup in his hand and said, "You are wrong, I am only sixteen years old in appearance, but I am actually sixty years old. Xiao Yunfan snorted and said: "Tsk, tsk, I always think that my bragging skills are quite good, but when I see you, I know that it is a small thing." If you are sixty years old, then am I already an old monster?" Master Xun Yi sighed: "I don't lie to you, the old man has suffered from a strange disease since he was a child, and his body and appearance cannot grow like ordinary people. That's why when you see me, you still think I'm a teenager. ”
Xiao Yunfan had heard a lot of strange stories, but for such a young man, he could never believe that the other party was already an old man over the age of six.
Master Xunyi said slowly: "I know that you must have many questions in your heart, so as long as you say it, I will answer you if I can answer it." ”
Xiao Yunfan said: "Since you are the master of this dark city, why do you want to divide the people here into three, six, nine and so on?" And for the world to work, there must be people big and small, and it is impossible for everyone to be equal. Some people are born princes and princesses, and some people are born slaves. If there is no expensive, how can it be cheap? If there is no right and wrong, how can it be called a river and lake?
It's not that I deliberately divide the people here into three, six, nine, and so on, but their fate. Only when they have the word identity in their hearts will they use all these opportunities to change their fate. That's actually quite fair. Xiao Yunfan said: "What you said seems to be reasonable, but those so-called slaves have nothing, what do they rely on?
Master Xunyi blinked and said, "The outside world is like this, and so is the world here. No one can deny the existence of this world, and existence is reasonable. Xiao Yunfan said: "Haven't you ever thought about what you would do if you were born into a slave?"
Master Xunyi smiled: "I can only obey my fate and wait for the time." There is no one in this world who is not a slave. How many people can see through the four words of wine, wealth, and wealth? There is desire in the heart, and people are slaves of desire. If you persuade me to change the Dark City into the Great Harmony World, I will not be able to do it, and no one will be able to do it in a thousand or ten thousand years. ”
Xiao Yunfan said: "If you don't break it, how do you know that you can't do it?" The owner of Xunyi drank a glass of wine and said: "If you don't break it first, it's not as good as the beginning." I also said that the world needs order, not chaos. Everyone has their own beliefs, and I never oppose theirs. All I want is order, and only when order exists, my existence will be meaningful. ”
Xiao Yunfan couldn't help but be silent when he heard this, he knew that if he wanted to change all the injustices in this world, he had to destroy the desires in people's hearts. And there is such a thing as desire, which is not something that you can control. Throughout the ages, how many heroes and heroes have kept saying that they want to open peace for all generations, but they are not for their own selfish desires.
The ghost phase gate dominates the martial arts because it wants to subvert the Ming Dynasty. Their desire is to plunge the world into a state from which there will be no return. Take Su Changmao as an example, he is Lin Changkong's illegitimate son, but Lin Changkong poisoned their mother and son. This unforgettable hatred inspires his desire for revenge, which also leads him to madness.
A person's ugly desires are terrible, let alone such a group of people. Even if he can kill them all, the evil thoughts that are left in this world because of desire cannot be eliminated forever? Xiao Yunfan can't do the chivalrous way of faith in his heart, and he shows a trace of discouragement when he thinks about it.
Master Xunyi said lightly: "Xiao Yunfan, you can't control my business, you better think about your own business." Xiao Yunfan said: "My business, do you want to deal with the Ghost Phase?" Xun Yi said: "I'm afraid you can't do it, maybe you have to join the Ghost Phase?"
Xiao Yunfan was stunned and said, "I don't know what Your Excellency means?" Master Xunyi drank a glass of wine, and his eyes seemed to light up. He said slowly: "You probably don't know that those leaders of the righteous martial arts have treated you as an outcast in order to protect their face. Xiao Yunfan said, "I don't understand what you're talking about?"
Master Xunyi sighed and said: "Now the entire rivers and lakes know that it was Xiao Yunfan and the ghost Xiangmen who made a game, and the purpose was to steal the Chishui Gang's "King Yu's Water Control Map". This "Yu Wang's Water Control Map" will include the world's waterways and dangers, as long as you have it, you can control the world's waterways.
While you are staying here, those righteous martial arts leaders have destroyed several estuaries of the Yangtze River, and now the people in the lower reaches of the Yangtze River have suffered greatly. Only when people's hearts are floating, these martial arts leaders can make great achievements and establish prestige, what about you, how many things have you done for the rivers and lakes, and how many times have you helped them wipe their butts?
Now, people don't take you seriously at all, but use you to improve your prestige. Isn't it desolate? Whether what I said is true or not, you will know when you leave here and walk on the rivers and lakes.
The hearts of the people in this world are the most unpredictable, today they call you a hero, and tomorrow they will say that you are a traitor. In the blink of an eyelid, the old hen turned into a duck. Turning my face is faster than turning a book, and if it were me, maybe I would really cooperate with the ghost family. So wake up and don't be presumptuous.
The word hero is his mother's deception, where is there a hero in this world? chivalrous, in order to save the common people, regardless of life and death. The bones of heroes have long been piled up and thrown into the dark, but those pseudo-heroes who are hypocritical and righteous show off their might.
The old man has long seen through the way of this world, so he can't bear to be deceived by false benevolence, false righteousness and false chivalry in vain. If the chivalry is not for himself, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. Only when you have your own stomach full first, then you can think about sharing the surplus food with others. It also depends on whether the mood is good or not, if it is good, it will be divided into a bucket, and if it is not good, even if a load of grain is fed to pigs and dogs, it will not be shared with others. If a good person is hurt by the way of the world, why should he save the way?
The old man thinks that you are a talent, and I can show you a clear way, that is, to come to my dark capital to do things. You don't have to worry about the battle between good and evil. Whether they fight in the dark, whether you live or die, let's just watch the show. If the two don't help each other, in the end they are dead and alive, and it's just a play. ”
