Chapter 678: Should I try it?
Su House.
With the passage of time, the burning clouds on the horizon gradually dispersed, and the whole world was also filled with a layer of night, but tonight was very clear, the bright moonlight was like a silver wheel, giving people a feeling of coolness like water, and the stars guarding the surrounding were also shining with starlight that made people feel comfortable.
At this moment, Su Shan is sitting in the gazebo in the backyard, gently sipping tea, no one is waiting for him, making tea, pouring tea, etc. are all done by himself, he has always enjoyed Xiao Yu'er by his side, and he naturally feels a little strange and a little jerky to do this kind of thing.
The taste of this tea is also different from the previous taste.
However, Su Shan didn't think about letting other people serve because of this, he was actually not very used to it, for so many years, since he was the little eunuch of the Imperial Horse Prison, Xiao Yu'er followed him to serve, and later, although Xiao Yu'er went to Lijinglou for a while, it was only a short time.
In general, everything about him is handled by Xiao Yu'er, and he still likes this feeling.
It can't be replaced.
What's more, since recovering his physical body, the two are no longer simply the relationship between master and slave, and they are completely closer, and it is even more impossible for him to let others approach him.
Gently taking a sip of the somewhat bitter tea, Su Shan raised his head and looked at the room with the door open, the faint firelight was swaying slightly in it, just enough to see Xiao Yu'er just knees and closed her eyes, sitting on the bed, retreating and cultivating, and the invisible energy roared out from her body, giving people a somewhat illusory feeling.
"She's actually very talented. ”
Su Shan looked at it quietly for a while, and there was a smile on his face that couldn't be concealed, from the first time he taught Xiao Yu'er martial arts, Su Shan already knew that the latter's talent was far beyond ordinary people, especially the meridians of that body, which were almost innate and open, and she had also benefited a lot from this talent over the years.
Now, this kind of talent that is far beyond ordinary people is manifested at this time, in just a few days of cultivation, the breath on her body has been mellow and accessible, and it can be regarded as the extreme of her current realm, and then, if you want to really cross the level of the Nine Layers of Innocence, you only rely on her understanding.
For these, Su Shan has never had any worries, and Xiao Yu'er's understanding is also enough, otherwise, she would not be able to reach the point of eightfold innocence, and it is only a matter of time before she truly breaks through the last step.
"How much longer?"
Su Shan drank the tea in the teacup at one time, smiled slightly, and then closed his eyes a little lazily, and entered a certain state of cultivation, but he was not improving his strength, but trying his best to suppress it, and try his best to let himself break through the gate of heaven The moment will come later.
"Overseer......"
When Su Shan entered the silence here, in the Qintian Prison of Chang'an City, a slender figure wearing a white shirt was sitting in front of the huge star instrument, looking at the countless flickering lights and shadows in front of him, in a daze, and on that delicate and unparalleled face, there was also a thick bitterness.
This person is Lu Xueming.
About less than half a year ago, she learned about Liaodong from the transfer of the Zhennan Army and the Shandong Army, and she didn't wait for Su Shan's withering order to personally bring some elites from the Mingyue Sect all the way to Chang'an City, wanting to support Su Shan and accompany Su Shan to fight side by side, but ......
When she arrived at Chang'an City, Su Shan had already set off for a long time, and she turned to take the disciples of the Mingyue Sect to Liaodong, but before she arrived in Liaodong, she had already learned the news of Liaodong, and the Liaodong army had blocked the attack of the Aberli savages and Goguryeo.
That battle was already a big win.
And then there is only the liquidation of the Aberli savages and Goguryeo, she and her Mingyue Sect disciples, even if they rush to Liaodong at this time, they can't do anything, after a little thought, she turned back directly and rested in Chang'an City for a while.
I just want to wait for Su Shan's class master to return to the court, and be able to see the latter.
However, when Su Shan and Dongchang's team finally appeared in this Chang'an City, Lu Xueming suddenly didn't dare to see him, since he was in charge of the Zhennan Army and completely controlled Nanjiang and Guiyun City, he had not met with the Overseer for a long, long time.
The feeling in her heart, in all these years of longing and suppression, is like that kind of spirit, it has been fermented to the extreme, fermented to the extreme, and it is precisely for this reason that she is very timid in her heart, and even sometimes afraid, if she sees Su Shan, what awaits her is just the treatment of the Zhennan Army or the commander of Southern Xinjiang?
So how do you deal with yourself?
She was scared and frightened, she didn't dare to show her face.
After struggling for many days and thinking about it for a long time, Lu Xueming finally made a decision, her current strength has reached the realm of Nine Folds and Innocence, and the Blood Gu Worm has also reached its peak with the growth of her strength, and the Bright Moon Sect has always practiced divination.
Therefore, she secretly came to Qin Tianjian.
She wanted to use the star sphere to see herself and the future of the Overseer, and then ......
Lu Xueming sat cross-legged in front of the slowly rotating star instrument, the huge gears and stars were spinning, making a squeaking sour sound, and the halo on it also began to gradually dim, and finally lost all color, Lu Xueming sighed deeply, and two lines of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
She can't see Su Shan's future, because Su Shan's strength is already very strong, strong enough to cover up the destiny of heaven, and even reverse, but she sees her future, and in the almost endless lifespan that the Nine Layers of Innocence has brought her, she doesn't see Su Shan's shadow, no!
In other words, it is impossible for her and Su Shan to come together after all, never.
"Maybe I don't deserve it at all. ”
Lu Xueming took a deep breath, then shook her head a little bitterly, the tears in the corners of her eyes were evaporated, she slowly stood up, and within the several doors around the Star Pavilion, one of the doors slowly opened, and an old man in a long robe with white hair walked out.
He came to Lu Xueming, bowed his hand respectfully, and said,
"Although I don't know what Sect Leader Lu wants to see through the Star Sphere, I must have known the result, and Yan wants to remind Sect Leader Lu here. ”
Lu Xueming's eyes flickered, raised his head slightly, and looked at the old man.
"The things of the world are not absolutely certain. ”
The old man folded his hands slightly and said,
"Most things can be changed when they have the opportunity, even if the Overseer, when he first appeared, he didn't have everything he has now, and his life is not very strong, but after so many years, he still does what others can't do, and he has everything now. ”
"Life is predestined, but people can change it. ”
"Please also keep in mind Sect Master Lu!"
"Thank you, Master Yan. ”
Lu Xueming looked at the old man's sincere and burning eyes, and there was a hint of thoughtfulness on her originally trance-like face, and she bowed her hand deeply to the old man gratefully.
"Huh!"
The old man didn't say anything, smiled slightly, turned around and returned to his door, and then closed it, completely cutting off contact with the outside world.
"Destiny is predestined, but people can change it. ”
Lu Xueming recalled this sentence, her beautiful eyes flashed with some brightness that could not be concealed, and even some eagerness, she pursed her lips, looked at the east of Chang'an City, the direction of Donghua Gate, and the direction of Su Zhai, and was silent for a long time, she said to herself,
"Should I try it?"
......
Dongchang Mansion.
The starlight and moonlight in the night shrouded this cold and strict world, and countless Dongchang servants guarded all around, flying fish suits, embroidered spring knives, these two have become a kind of symbol in the Great Wei Dynasty, and in this night, it seems even more sharp and extraordinary.
Looking along the bright firelight, in the palace hall that looked a little low, Yan Chong leaned in front of a few cases, staring at some files in front of him, and was carefully studying, and on the somewhat angular face, some cold colors flashed from time to time, and there was a killing intent that could not be concealed.
"Commander, two groups of spies have not returned, so something must have happened. ”
After a long time, Yan Chong read the file thoroughly, then marked two places from it, and then looked up at the person in charge of the report, the other party arched his hand and continued,
"These two sets of jars, staring at two places respectively, one is the Dongying restaurant on Xijing Street, and the other is an inconspicuous house not far from the north city gate. ”
"And the house at the north city gate, but there doesn't seem to be anything to discover, when they first entered Chang'an City, they didn't know what method they used, and they escaped the records of the city gate guards, and now, it seems to be living in the way of the Persians, and there are no other abnormalities, given that the two groups of spies have disappeared, the humble duty did not send someone to investigate in detail!"
"No need!"
Yan Chong heard the other party's report, sneered slightly, slowly put the file aside, then got up and walked towards the outside of the main hall, and at the same time commanded in a cold voice,
"I'm going to visit them in person!"
"Yes!"
When the person from Lijinglou heard Yan Chong's words, his face was filled with a trace of solemnity, and he bowed his hand respectfully, that is, he withdrew from this hall, and soon after his efforts, a team of Dongchang soldiers also gathered together, and appeared near the gate of the Dongchang Mansion in a solemn manner.
Crash!
With the appearance of Yan Chong, everyone gave up their hands, and the cold atmosphere between heaven and earth gradually diffused out, Yan Chong didn't say much, waved his hand, turned around and got on the war horse, and then walked directly in the direction of Xijing Street, and in front of him was led by a person with a special Lijinglou.
Bang!
In just a few moments, the Dongchang Fan Servant had already crossed several streets and came to the center of Xijing Street, looking ahead, in the middle of this street, there was a shop that was still flashing with lights, although there were no customers in the shop, but the tone of the Dongying people sounded.
And at the door, there are two Dongying people, who seem to be drunk, talking to each other, far away, Yan Chong can hear some, probably the news that was passed on before, they are all fake, they don't need to run, even if the Great Wei Dynasty is arrogant, it will not really do anything to all Dongying people.
How can they be reasonable, etc., and they are still talking about some of each other's gains, many people have escaped from Chang'an City, but they have taken the opportunity to buy a lot of things at a low price, and when this limelight passes, they will definitely be able to make a good price, which is better than the business that the two of them have worked hard for several years.
"Huh!"
Yan Chong looked at the two Dongying people, and a sneer of disdain appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The north gate of Chang'an City is still blocked, so the massacres that happened outside the city have not yet been transmitted to the city, these people naturally don't know, it's ridiculous that they are still here fantasizing that the Great Wei Dynasty will open up to them, it is really self-conscious, the Great Wei Dynasty, as well as Dongchang, the style of doing things has not changed!
Will it change because of a few Dongying people who don't enter the stream?
Impossible!
"Is this the restaurant?"
The sneer on the corner of his mouth became more and more intense, Yan Chong exhaled slightly, looked at the owner of Lijing Mansion beside him, and asked in a deep voice.
"Yes!"
The thin man nodded respectfully and said,
"There are thirteen people in the whole shop, and I don't know who the real Dongying samurai is, but it's just ......"
"It's okay!"
Yan Chong waved his hand lightly, interrupting the man's words, and said with a sneer,
"Thirteen people are just a hundred, they all have been killed, there is no need to waste time to investigate, the people who died in vain should be regarded as a tribute to the murdered altar of your Lijinglou!"
When the words fell, Yan Chong didn't say much, and waved his hand directly at a hundred Dongchang households who had already prepared behind him, and then commanded in an extremely cold voice,
"Kill all the restaurants!"
"Yes!"
The Lord of the Hundred Households had long known that Yan Chong would give such an order, because he also personally participated in the massacre outside Chang'an City, and after hearing Yan Chong's order, he directly gave his hand, and then turned around, nodded to the nearly 100 servants behind him, and the blade of the embroidered spring knife was slowly pulled out, and he commanded in a cold voice,
"Kill!"
Bang!
A team of Dongchang soldiers drew their knives almost at the same time, and then directly like a red torrent, they swarmed towards the restaurant in front of them, almost instantly, this group of people had already appeared at the door of the shop, those drunk Dongying people, and those clerks inside, etc., almost all did not react, they were cut to the ground.
Bang!
At the same time, the Toei samurai hidden inside, that is, the owner of this restaurant, also reacted, he brandished his katana, and then roared loudly and rushed out, wanting to duel with the Dongchang officials, but his scream did not last long, and he was directly stabbed in the chest.
Blood flowed, and his body was stiff and collapsed, and the whole person looked extremely sad.
"The cooking shop is burned, and then go to the house at the North City Gate!"
Yan Chong was in the distance, looking at this scene coldly, waving his hand casually, and with many servants of the East Factory, he turned around and turned around.
