There are 100 kinds of flowers and 100 kinds of people.

Some people are born with different education, cultural traditions, accomplishments and living environments, and there will always be too many situations where people have different ideas because of these.

These kinds of things in the world, in layman's terms, can be understood in this way: the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds.

This is the same rice to raise a hundred kinds of people, good and bad is what Taoism says, the "fixed number" and "variable" between heaven and earth and nature.

And the Buddhist scriptures once called it "karma".

Everything has its cause and effect, and the "effect" of this life is the "cause" planted in the previous life.

The cycle of karma is unpleasant, and the debts of the past life will be repaid in this life.

But Liu Shanshan never believed the words of these gods.

In his opinion, the former is more convincing.

Because Childe once said that maybe some things are indeed inherently unchangeable. It's like a person's cultivation talent and root bone qualifications.

Some people are born with material for cultivation, and their qualifications are so good that they are a mess. Even if you usually eat and drink, you can increase your cultivation, and when you go out to enjoy the scenery, you can also realize some mysteries that ordinary people can't comprehend when they think hard and meditate.

For example, in words, Zhu Hongyu is first-class.

There is also the sword head Jiang Yuelou who no one in the world knows the king.

There are also some people who are born with all the meridians and acupoints. In other words, people who can't practice can only be ordinary people for a lifetime, and after a hundred years, they will be a handful of loess.

It's just that Gongzi even said a word, things are man-made, and there are no immutable things and people in heaven and earth.

Everything and anyone can change due to many factors. From the established side of the beginning to become unrecognizable, there is a huge difference from the "ideal".

It's like Liu Shanshan himself.

If he hadn't met Childe, he might still be the boy who herded cattle in the mountains. will be like Suning, who does not know the world, is carefree and carefree, and does not understand the world and lives a life.

Maybe one day, because the bully in the village who has been peeking on his sister-in-law for a long time has ruined his family, he may also die in Huangquan.

Maybe there will also be a chivalrous man who has admired since childhood, and when he sees injustice, he will take action to get rid of the bully. Afterwards, as Mr. Storyteller said, the chivalrous man may leave his name and say that the people in the rivers and lakes are called so-and-so. Or go away without leaving a word without taking away a leaf of dust.

is like Gu Shuleng, the later son-in-law.

It's just that at that time, Childe didn't leave his name, and he didn't take away a leaf of dust.

Childe took him away from the mountain and went to another country.

Even the hometown that I occasionally think of in my memory now has begun to fade away.

If, the son didn't take him away at the beginning. He will probably marry a wife and have children early like his peers in the mountains, and he will probably be able to see the end of his life at a glance.

A leaf knows autumn, three years old can see the old, and when you start a family and set up a house, it is like the unchanging "fixed number".

It's just that he met Childe.

I also know what Childe said about "things are man-made", and after you take that brave step, everything becomes possible.

So, when he took the sword from Childe, everything changed.

Ever since he killed the bully, he had never stopped killing.

From an ordinary person with mediocre qualifications, to today's No. 1 murderer in the same realm.

He was covered with bones and preached with slaughter.

Once upon a time, did he ever think that one day he would become what he is now?

So he believes that the acquired circumstances can really completely change a person.

These changes are not just about how many achievements you can have and how strong your cultivation is.

In Childe's words, it is necessary to change the three views.

From being muddy and nightmarish to knowing etiquette and understanding benevolence, and then to killing people like hemp. Childe taught him so much, and he learned too much.

He is no longer a 'teenager'.

Everyone has a devil and an angel in their hearts, and they also have their own love and righteousness, and he is naturally no exception.

So if he can make a difference, he can't just leave. I can't forgive myself.

When he lifts the sword, he has the pride of the rivers and lakes when he goes out.

Knowing the grace of the retribution, the soldier dies for the confidant, and he also has it.

So he came, like the mighty man who was gone forever, knowing that life and death were unpredictable, and went to his death.

This is the "affection" between him and his son.

In his dictionary, there is no retreat, and there is no ingratitude.

From the moment he met Childe, his life was full of "variables", becoming infinite possibilities, and being able to turn the impossible into possibility.

For example, it takes less than three years to reach the three realms.

For example, from an ignorant teenager to an executioner who has killed countless people.

For another example, maybe after tonight, Jianghu Yi will still have his Liushan Mountain, and he will be a future sword immortal who is determined to be a sword immortal in the future.

Therefore, when he stepped into this street and realized that he was firmly locked by countless gloomy gazes, he still did not have the slightest fear.

It's more about relief and relief.

At least, his presence can still help Childe attract more attention.

Although it is only a drop in the bucket, these people who don't even have the four realms are destined to only fight the autumn wind on the periphery, and those who can enter Gu Caotang are the real threat.

But it still helps Childe reduce some of the pressure, doesn't it?

Liu Shanshan smiled bitterly, he is still too weak, it seems that he can only do it to this extent?

These are not as expected by the Pingyang Dynasty, and it is a blessing that it did not cause trouble to the son.

Although that guy usually looks underwhelmed, I have to say that he really has a good brain.

Well... It's about half of Childe... Maybe it's a small half?

I hope that his actions over there will also be rewards.

He licked the corners of his mouth, looking so cold and ruthless in the night.

I thought that it seems that too many people have forgotten what is the "first Liu Da Manager of killing people in the same realm".

Tonight, I can finally kill it.

......

......

The autumn breeze is bleak and the chill is refreshing.

Here the clock towers and watchtowers soar into the sky, like gods looking down on the earth, looking at every house or person in the city.

This is a certain "city gate" outside of Uehara Castle.

It is said to be a city gate, but it is connected by several towers and a high wall. The city wall is exposed on the cliff face because of the topography, and it looks like it is in the clouds.

This is the inevitable result of the construction of the Uehara City on the basis of natural hazards, and the once hundreds of miles of majestic majestic cities have been divided into fragments under the erosion of the years, and they seem so vulnerable.

Beneath the tower, which towered into the clouds, a man led his horse and stopped just as he was about to leave the city.

It's not because of the curfew, it seems to be waiting for someone.

After the opening of the Dafeng Dynasty, the rule of "making the city at sunrise and closing the city at dusk" began to take root and gradually became the system of the dynasty.

It's just that Uehara Castle has never been closed, let alone curfew.

Even because of the tension between several dynasties for several months, it has not been able to affect the city area that is far away from the Dafeng realm, and the garrisons at the city gates here are all lax.

But tonight is obviously a little different, usually even if the guards are lax, there will be records and stalking from the Supervision Department, but there will not be such a strange silence and no one at this moment.

It seems that for some reason he got a secret order in advance, and at this same moment disappeared without a trace.

The man who led the horse did not know how long he waited, and when it was about to get darker and darker, someone finally entered the city outside the city, and seemed to come to the man who led the horse as if he had said in advance.

The person who came was dressed in brocade clothes, dressed solemnly and with beautiful jade, which seemed to have a very high status.

A long sword behind him is exquisite, and with his own majestic spirit, he looks like a master at a glance, and his kung fu is extremely high.

Pingyang Chao always did not greet politely, and asked directly: "Lost?"

In order not to be looked down upon by the 'apprentices', Gu Fengya, the great master of the Sword Hall, who often pretends to be a master, seems to be a little decadent now. The aura on his body was obviously a little disordered, and it was difficult to control it for a while.

The Great Grandmaster looked tired, his face was a little gloomy, and he sneered meaningfully: "Mr. Gu will probably guess that I will definitely intercept it after I learn that Sword Mountain Master Bai Feng took Suning away, but he will definitely not send someone to me to see my jokes when the time comes." Aren't you afraid that you'll block your master?"

No one would have thought that the Great Grandmaster of the Sword Hall of the Sangu Thatched Cottage would chase thousands of miles to intercept the third sword of the Sword Mountain that had already "transcended the sainthood" because of a disciple who had not yet entered the ranks, and there was even a peerless sword fight.

At the moment, it was obvious that this great master, who was extremely famous in the Six Realms, was probably defeated.

It's just that I don't know how many rounds are outside, or if the chess is a bad move, and the thrilling twists and turns in the middle are not at all for outsiders.

I don't know why I can calculate it accurately, this great master will enter the city here and now Pingyang Chao smiled slightly, "I came here to make a deal with my seniors!"

Gu Fengya glanced at him and said bluntly: "It's just you, maybe it's reluctant to change your son-in-law." ”

The implication is that Gu Shuleng's conversation with me is still because of Suning's relationship, what are you? I might be able to teach a lesson as an elder, but I really don't have that in the current situation.

It's a little mean to speak. If it weren't for the strange appearance of this reader, he wouldn't even stop to talk to him.

Pingyang Chao knew that the way he opened the topic was mildewed, and he didn't care too much about Gu Fengya's meanness, and said calmly: "As a behemoth that is famous in the world and is not inferior to the three major "main courtyards" of Confucianism, it has been repeatedly restricted in the Dafeng Dynasty, and even there has always been only one branch hall in Shangyuan City, and it is difficult to enter an inch. This is not only because the Dafeng Dynasty is too tough on the power of the Jianghu sects, but also because Shangyuan City, as the only bridge along with the entire northwest barrier, involves the interests of almost the entire northwest major sects and big clans. This makes it difficult for Jiantang, as a rising star, to blend in in and get a piece of the pie in a short period of time. Even if you are a top Grand Master within the Six Realms. ”

"Because Uehara Castle is so special, even the three major dynasties only rule on the surface, and they can't take over it all. This is also why it is these small gangs and factions that really control the major streets in the city, and the strength of the government is not good. ”

"This is the 'tacit understanding' between the human dynasty and the forces of the rivers and lakes. ”

Pingyang Chao said this, and looked at Gu Fengya.

Gu Fengya listened attentively, nodded approvingly, and said, "That's right, this is also one of the reasons." Is this Mr. Gu's analysis, or is it your personal opinion?"

Then he looked at the young scholar in front of him with a calm expression, and said, "So what?"

Pingyang Chao, who was talking at length, straightened his face and asked a very vague question: "Among the three major sword immortals of the Sword Hall, the eighteen sons, and the seventy-two swords, the ones who really walked out of the Sword Hall headquarters and appeared outside were generally the eighteen sons and the seventy-two swords. So in Uehara City, how many 'swords' are there in the Sword Hall?"

Before he finished speaking, Pingyang Chao felt a chill all over his body.

This 'Sword in the Stone Gu Fengya', one of the seventy-two swords in the Sword Hall, looked at the young scholar coldly, and sneered: "Do you know that the Sword Hall is distributed in hundreds of major states in the world, and each of them is thousands of miles away, and this less than a hundred 'swords' alone is a drop in the bucket for a week. For the sake of this mere city, do you dare to think like this? Or is this another whimsical of Mr. Gu?"

Pingyang Chao was drenched as if he had been fished up from a pool, and without much cultivation, he couldn't even bear the gaze of the Great Grandmaster. Not to mention the warning voice of this great master.

It's just that he didn't flinch in the slightest, and forced a calm tone to break through the mystery, "A hundred-year plan, the Tianshan Covenant..."

Before he finished speaking, he felt like someone was choking his throat, his feet were more than three feet off the ground, and the whole person was 'hanging' straight in mid-air.

It's just that he didn't have the slightest fear, but began to laugh.

However, because the throat was choked, the laughter turned into a violent and weird coughing sound, which was especially miserable.

Binh Duong Chao was indeed happy because he was not disappointed.

Judging from the reaction of this great grandmaster, at least he was right, and some of the private things that Childe had inadvertently revealed were indeed right.

Childe once talked to him about the trend of some situations in the world, the rise and fall of power, and had concise and concise comments on the Tianshan Mountains that run through several large states. Among them, there is the immortal power of "Tianmen" that inadvertently revealed the Tianshan Mountain Range, and it also brought the sword hall with a word.

When I came, I had some vague speculations in my heart combined with the few words I recalled, and there was not much confidence that I could convince this transcendent great master that it was different now.

He didn't care what kind of turmoil that the group of mountain immortals who were always thinking about planning the world would cause. I don't want to pay attention to whether Jiantang secretly colluded with them to commit any 'taboos'.

He only knows one thing, all in order to be able to help Childe.

Even if you can't go into danger alone like Liu Shanshan, you can at least be able to bloom a lotus flower with a three-inch tongue and risk your life to gamble.

Even if you fail, it's better than doing nothing, anyway, your life is saved by Childe. Even if he died, it was just a pity that he couldn't kill a few more black dogs.

Gu Fengya sneered: "I have seen too many twists and turns of you readers, and I have also learned the hardness of your readers' 'backbone'. It's just that I didn't understand that you sour scholars who drill the horns of the bull can die generously for the sake of some self-righteous righteousness or some rules. ”

"Do you know that my sword can easily harvest your ridiculous backbone like chopping melons and vegetables, piece by piece? Aren't you self-proclaimed smart people, how can you be so ignorant and obscure, and you really don't dare to kill you for me?"

As he spoke, the blood vessels in the hands and feet of the scholar suddenly burst, and the whole person fell to the ground heavily, and the sound of bone breaking that followed was clearly audible.

Gu Fengya sneered and said, "I have the heart to listen to your tirade now, you have to talk about your backbone, why do you dare to seek death like this." ”

This is the negotiation between the strong and the weak.

Equality will always exist only between equal strength, and the Pingyang Dynasty naturally knows this.

He coughed violently and tried to struggle to get up, but when he realized that he couldn't do it, he simply lay on the ground, facing the starry sky and coughing up a mouthful of blood, stunned.

He remembered what Childe once said, saying that there are not too many principles and rules in the world, and they have long been thoroughly explained by the sages. But even so, how many can do it? Even those who talk about benevolence, righteousness and morality all the time are not necessarily really infallible.

It is difficult to distinguish black and white from good and bad in the world, and there will be right and wrong in the world. It's just that I feel that I am not wrong, and I feel that I am not ashamed.

So it is enough to be worthy of your own heart.

What does it matter if it is right or wrong with others?

At that time, he felt that Childe's words were... It's very irresponsible, and it doesn't fit the 'truth' that his master preached at home.

Although he doesn't agree with it now, he feels that it makes sense.

It is because although it is impossible for people in the world to be benevolent, righteous, courteous, wise, and faithful, as the Master said, they only know that the weak eat the strong.

But there are still people in the world who are affectionate and righteous.

There are hundreds of kinds of people in life.

You can't generalize, you can't all be like one kind of person.

That's weird.

And he, from being drunk by his son to the line of life and death now, really understood the path in his heart and where to go.

This reader has read so many books, and finally feels that this moment is the most refreshing, and the breath in his heart goes straight to 'heaven listening'.

Gu Fengya's expression lit up, and she sighed lightly, and her mouth snorted again and again.

Although Pingyang Chao was seriously injured and dying, his 'divine will' was full of energy, and he asked softly: "Someone once said that people and things in this world are like a picture scroll in a thousand forms, and they need some charm to be used as the finishing touch. He also said that the rivers and lakes are a bead curtain. Big people and small people are beads, and big stories and small stories are strings. The word "affection" is the spirit of those beads. ”

"I used to live very confused because of the ruin of the country, the death of the family, and the hatred is as deep as the sea, like the vast sea with nowhere to land, except for hatred or only hatred. Now I'm more sober. It's a good feeling. ”

Gu Fengya frowned, as if she understood something, and suddenly understood.

After a moment of silence, he sighed faintly: "I see, but I underestimated your 'backbone'. No wonder he would teach people like you with different temperaments in the world, and no wonder my disciples would... Larger than life. ”

Then, he sneered: "Then, then you think about what reason you are here today to achieve your purpose? You will not be naïve to think that you will use the 'affection' between you to influence me, right? Your 'god' is only temporary, and your own injuries are inevitable, and your time is short. ”

The Pingyang Dynasty, whose divine will began to turn from full to losing, was a little tired, and said softly: "The reason why the Sword Hall was able to quickly open up the situation in this world is that it is no less than the scale of the three "main courtyards". It's because the model of the Sword Hall is similar to the model of the academy. ”

"However, success is also Xiao He, defeat is also Xiao He, as a force that has risen for less than a hundred years, it is because of the lack of foundation. The branches scattered in the major states cannot be guarded by strong enough people, resulting in the weakness of the major branches. Although the entire Sword Hall is still very strong, it is difficult to change the current status quo. Unless..."

"Unless the Sword Hall is integrated, the Sword Hall sect system?" Before the Pingyang Dynasty finished speaking, Gu Fengya sneered, quite disapproving, "If you just have these opinions, I don't think you need to say more, the Sword Hall has been discussed countless times before, and there have been several disagreements. You're just talking nonsense. ”

This is not a lie, as a behemoth spanning hundreds of states,

Pingyang Chao was still staring at the starry sky, and muttered: "So I want to try one place, and this place is the entire northwest." And to step into the center of the northwest, the only way to open up this Uehara City together with the three major dynasties is to open up. If you want to garrison the northwest under the jealousy of the major sects, you have to contact the group of 'outsiders' rooted in the Tianshan Mountain Range. ”

Hearing this, Gu Fengya's brows furrowed, and her face changed unpredictably for a while. What the Pingyang Dynasty said is indeed not much different from the internal layout of the Sword Hall. It's just that I'm also surprised in my heart why the Pingyang Dynasty was able to know the most secret plan within the Sword Hall, knowing that this kind of plan is only known to the core high-level.

Could it be that there is really an inner ghost?

Or is this kind of plot itself not difficult to guess, and even a strategist in a small place can see through it?

Pingyang Chao suddenly laughed heartily and coughed several times in succession, "Your Sword Hall has probably always underestimated the ability of those 'Mountain Immortal Families', and never thought about how it would change if you cooperated with them. I didn't think too much about the wariness of the major sects against that group of immortals, and there was a very vague 'line'"

"Once you cross that line, you will not be tolerated, and you will be the target of public criticism. ”

Gu Fengya's heart sank, and she sneered: "I see, it seems that Mr. Gu has also thought about this." That's the way you think?"

He was not talking about the Pingyang Dynasty in front of him, but directly pointing at the young man in Gu Caotang.

It's just that the Pingyang Dynasty didn't pay attention to the great master's extraneous voice, but keenly captured the word "also" in the words.

He froze for a moment and laughed to himself.

I thought I was smart, but I didn't expect others to have already guessed. How can he really become the 'public enemy' of the world, as he said?

However, what is unpredictable in the world is that when he found out that this time Gu Fengya did not make sarcastic remarks, or lost patience to kill the killer, but frowned with a heavy heart.

Pingyang Chao seemed to have a guess in his heart, and it was his turn to sneer and say, "Since you know that there will be such an outcome, you still have to gamble?"

He suddenly remembered that Childe had commented on the current situation of the Sword Hall, and the embankment of a thousand miles was destroyed in the anthill!

It seems that this sentence means this, and the inside of the Sword Hall has also begun to realize it.

Gu Fengya seemed to be aware inexplicably, "It seems that Mr. Gu knows a lot." So have you ever talked about how to crack it?"

He still didn't want to believe in his heart that the layout vision of the entire Sword Hall's core deliberation would not even be comparable to a young man who had not yet reached the crown.

It's just that for some reason, the subconscious mind is actually looking forward to some answers.

The corners of Pingyang's mouth curled slightly, and when he said this, he felt that everything was finally on the 'right track'.

"Have you ever thought that you would really take the entire Uehara Castle instead of opening a 'route'?"

Gu Fengya snorted coldly, "Whimsical." ”

What kind of existence Uehara Castle is, there is no need to guess at all.

As a point of common association of the three major dynasties.

How can this point be tolerated to be out of control?

"Then have you ever thought about what if the Sword Hall is biased towards one side or the other?"

"This is impossible, the Sword Hall will never be attached to the dynasty. ”

It's just that this Sword Hall Grand Master himself didn't notice it, and he no longer felt impatient when he didn't agree with him. Rather, there is a change, and it seems that there is a real expectation of some answer.

"So what if there is a person who can have some great say in the imperial court and is a first-class sect himself?"

That's what he's ultimately aiming for tonight.

Gu Fengya was shocked in her heart, and subconsciously said, "Yanxin?"

The Pingyang Dynasty was silent, and everything was silent.

Gu Fengya's mind turned, and she sighed lightly: "So I understand, it seems that this is also your main purpose tonight." ”

Speaking of this, the two had already had a tacit understanding, and he continued: "Your suggestions and sincerity are very good, but I am not alone in the Sword Hall. Moreover, it will not be easy to take Uehara Castle. ”

Ping Yangchao smiled, as if he didn't speak because of his serious injuries.

It also seems to be expressed in a kind of extraneous meaning.

He needed the Grand Master's statement.

Gu Fengya looked at this weak scholar deeply, and said sincerely: "It seems that your goal tonight has been achieved." ”

Although he had never entered the city, he knew certain layouts before he left the city.

With this information, it is not difficult to guess the situation that is currently taking shape.

In his opinion, that Mr. Gu was already a mortal situation tonight.

This is also why when I learned that some of the future arrangements of the Sword Hall had been leaked, I was still here without hurry and waited for the results.

He is only a mortal, and he does not need to do anything at all.

And the reason why the loyal Gu Caotang 'remnant' in front of him found himself and offered such conditions, is it difficult to guess the purpose?

It's just that he miscalculated.

Pingyang Chao shook his head slightly with difficulty, "Tonight, is the best time for your Sword Hall to start, and Yulin Street is the best way to vote." Even if neither of you is standing, you can still have a long room to maneuver in a short period of time. ”

Then he paused, warmed his breath and continued: "A city, it is difficult to say, but it is indeed easy to say. As long as he survives tonight, Childe has a better decision. ”

Gu Fengya's expression changed, and finally after several times, she seemed to have made up her mind. "Have you thought about it?"

As the 'boundary' of the three dynasties in the city, Yulin Street is as important as the entire Uehara Castle and the 'boundary' of the entire northwest.

But in the current situation, Dafeng gave up Yulin Street. Because there was only one Qing Party, the Northern Zheng Dynasty could not defend the entire Yulin Street in a short period of time.

The timing was perfect.

It's just that he didn't understand why this scholar was able to make such a decision tonight.

So what should Gu Shuleng, who is completely in a desperate situation, do?

So he asked.

Pingyang Chao replied as expected: "No, my son-in-law has other ways to break the situation." All you have to do is let go and take over Yulin Street. To make some people pay a terrible price, it is not only the word failure, but also the word regret. ”

The voice seemed to be squeezed out between the teeth, like a cruel smile.

Gu Fengya was surprised, thinking to herself that since this is the case, then what are you doing tonight for?

It's just that the Pingyang Dynasty doesn't seem to have the strength to say a word more.

His eyes were dilated, staring at the starry sky as if he was whispering: "Everyone in the world can die, including me, but you must not die." ”

At this moment, Gu Fengya had mixed feelings in her heart.

The dying scholar in front of him has read poetry and books, learned all the Confucian scriptures and principles of the gentleman, and has been full of Confucian orthodoxy.

Tonight's talk shows only madness and recklessness.

You can really die for the word love!
