Chapter 696: Shu Dao Soldiers (16)
Chu Xunyu walked on Dushan at night, and it was close to midnight when he was finally busy with the wounded, looking at the Shushan disciples who were on guard everywhere on the mountain Chu Xunyu couldn't help but show a wry smile, why are conflicts still breaking out frequently today, decades after the end of the war, and it is still in Shushan. You must know that the last time Shushan faced such a dilemma was in the hands of the founder of the Baimei Daoren, the classics recorded that in ancient times, when the Baimei Daoist founded the Shushan faction, he led his disciples to sweep away the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods hidden in the vast mountains and forests, and the final decisive battle was in the mountains of Shudi, they paid a very tragic price in exchange for the prosperity of today's Shushan fairyland, the river of time does not know how many thousands of years it has flowed, the core twelve people of Shushan were besieged here by the enemy, and the sleeping Shushan heroic spirits on the ancient Shu Road seem to linger around everyone silently staring at the younger generationsγ
Walking and walking, Chu Xunyu found himself walking to an inconspicuous corner on the top of Dushan Mountain, where he saw a person, Chu Xunyu was taken aback, this person was obviously not a disciple of Shushan, he looked like a teenager, wearing a white coarse cloth short, and there was a lot of mud and dust in his hair, he couldn't see what Xiuwei was, under the moonlight, he was standing quietly on the cliff with bright big eyes looking down at the mountains under his feet, Chu Xunyu asked behind him in surprise: "Senior, are you ......?"
The young man turned his head, looked at Chu Xunyu with a slight smile, and said in an apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, I didn't bother you when I passed by here, right?"
Chu Xunyu was a little at a loss, and he didn't know whether this person was friend or foe, so he had to answer honestly: "Actually, I also live here, and I don't have anything to disturb." β
The young man smiled slightly, turned his head to look at the mountains again, and said softly: "The fighting around here has been so powerful these days." β
"Are the seniors here to help Shu Mountain or destroy Shu Mountain?" Chu Xunyu asked tentatively.
"Neither. The young man shook his head as always, "I said, I really passed through here, my trip has nothing to do with the fight between the two sides, you don't have to worry about me." β
After a pause, the young man turned his head to look at Chu Xunyu again, and asked strangely: "I'm curious about you, why would a person who has nothing to do with Shushan help them run before and after." β
"I also have some friendship with Shushan, there are a lot of people I know, although I have some personal matters this time, but I still focus on the overall situation, otherwise Shushan will be destroyed, I guess I won't be able to run away. Chu Xun replied stupidly.
"Yes. The young man smiled self-deprecatingly, "Life is painful, life is sad, life and death always have their own number, so why force it." β
The young man slowly turned around, stared at the sword behind Chu Xunyu, and said with a smile: "Little guy, your sword is really special." β
"Huh?" Chu Xunyu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled awkwardly, "The predecessor is too pretty." β
The young man nodded quietly: "You go, I won't bother you." β
Chu Xunyu nodded, and after Shi Li said goodbye, he ended this conversation that made him scratch his head, the other party's origin is unknown, and it seems that his cultivation is also a very good person, it is better not to make extraneous branches until he finds out his identity, so he left with anxiety. After Chu Xunyu left, the young man looked at the bottom of the cliff and asked for no reason: "Is that him?"
"Yes, how do you feel?" A childish voice came from the bushes, and I saw a little girl with pigtails walking out of the shadows, it was Yan Zhi, she looked at Chu Xunyu's distant back and asked, "Isn't it like that?"
The young man sat on a stone casually, sighed, and asked, "After all these years, you still can't forget her words, don't you think it's ridiculous?"
Yan Zhi smiled bitterly and asked, "Then why do you only remember the first half of the sentence and don't trust the second half?"
"The first words make sense, but the latter words are ridiculous. The boy shook his head in disgust, "Why are you obsessed with it to this day, and you still have illusions?" β
Yan Zhi pulled the corner of the young man's clothes in an almost pleading tone and said, "Brother, can you help your sister once? Try it, just try it, if it happens, isn't it also our long-cherished wish for many years? Since she went, I can only trust you." β
The young man looked at the invisible scar on his left hand in embarrassment: "I'm not like you, I can stay here at will, I have a time limit, you can procrastinate, but I can't, if I can't finish things, and I can't find a reasonable excuse, then how can I explain when I go back? Don't forget, there are still a pair of eyes behind me." β
"There are things that can be done and things that are difficult to do. Yan Zhi grinned and pointed to the bottom of the mountain, "Isn't there a ready-made excuse at the foot of the mountain?" You see, with so many people and horses fighting, there will always be some 'accidents' that hinder us, don't you say?"
The young man didn't speak, frowned and looked at the bottom of the mountain, as if hesitating, Yan Zhi pulled him and pleaded: "Don't think about it, just fight once, it's already like this anyway, how bad can it be." β
The young man gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind: "Okay, this is the last time, you have been walking outside for a long time, it's best to keep an eye on him, I will return in vain this time, and the person who comes out next time will not be as good as me, you must remember, it is better to speed up the action, otherwise it will not be long to hide, just imagine that you will return in vain every time, so that the traces of the axe and chisel will be too obvious." β
"Okay, I'll push that silly boy. Yan Zhi nodded.
At the same time that Yan Zhi and the young man were talking, there was also a conversation inside the Fengchen Pavilion, which was from Yuan Feng and Yuan Lan, Yuan Feng placed the spiritual positions of Yuan Lang and Yuan Cheng on the stone table under the moon, and he poured wine on the ground to comfort the two junior brothers, seeing Yuan Feng's eyes full of sadness, Yuan Lan persuaded on the side: "Senior brother, mourn." β
Yuan Feng lamented bitterly: "In the past, the master once said, although we thirteen people have the friendship of life, but it is difficult to die together, that year the little junior brother defected to the valley, I thought that the matter was over, so over the years I have tried to be lenient and benevolent, to maintain our remaining twelve people, in order to do their best to brotherhood, I didn't think that today, Yuan Lang and Yuan Cheng still go first, under the nine springs, what face do I have to see the heroic spirit of the ancestor." β
At that time, the former head of Shushan was called "Guanyangzi", he was seriously injured after the failure of the tragedy, and died when he passed on to Yuan Feng, when Yuan Feng asked his teacher to posthumously train, Guanyangzi glanced at the thirteen personal disciples kneeling beside the bed, and left words to say, "Although you have the beginning of childhood sweethearts, but there is no end of the same life and virtue", so I instructed Yuan Feng, Shushan people have been strong since ancient times, and it is inevitable that things will be biased and easy to make mistakes. Yuan Feng was still inevitably fierce when he was in charge of Shushan in the early years, and when Wang Luran defected, he remembered the words of the ancestor and regretted it a lot, so he changed his old style, and later had a more forgiving heart, so the world always felt that the head of Shushan was more kind than any Shushan person, but today's things made Yuan Feng painful, but he didn't expect Yuan Cheng and Yuan Lang to take the lead in the fall, and his heart was grief-stricken, Yuan Lan comforted Yuan Feng for a long time, and only the last sentence pointed out the current priority: " Senior brother, this is just the beginning, the deceased is gone, and there is a sinister battle ahead, and it is important for us to protect the survivors. β
Yuan Feng nodded, put away his sadness, forced his composure, and said solemnly: "I'm going to see Uncle Luo Yuanzi and Yuan Yan, they have been pretending to be sick for so long, and now it's time to make a move......
