Volume 1 Chaowai Lang Chapter 20 Listen to the story on the winter fire

Tang Lixi finally woke up slowly from being slapped on the head by Qiao Shiyi, and tore off the charm posted on his head casually, Qiao Shiyi was still waiting for him to wake up in the room, and Yun'er didn't know where he went.

I saw Qiao Shiyi looking at Tang Li's face with a serious face, "Fox, shouldn't you tell me something." ”

Tang Li still wanted to laugh and scold, looked at Qiao Shiyi with a bitter gourd face, and sighed, "It seems to be similar to what I expected, Ang, the five decay of heaven and man are broken, right?"

"You're dying, and you can still laugh?"

"There are some things that I don't have to choose, isn't it more worrying to cry at this time? I think I should, my life is relatively big. Tang Li smiled

Qiao Shiyi thought about it, took out a golden pill from his gourd, there were nine auspicious clouds on the pill, looking at the pill handed over by Qiao Shiyi, Tang Li shook his head, and didn't take it, "Is there wine?"

Qiao Shiyi untied the wine jug from his waist and threw it to Tang Li, and instead went to add firewood to the stove.

Tang Li didn't calculate that the internal strength of He Rui's crazy woman's palm directly shattered his heart. If it was an ordinary person, he would have died at the moment when he smashed the window, but Tang Lixi could come back to life at that time, and his heart was intact before Qiao Shiyi treated him. It is all because the "lead" is stimulated by external objects, passively protects the master, and stimulates the ......

Originally, there were still four years for Tang Li's preparation to be prepared, but that palm made the flower of the Great Dao ready to bloom, and now Tang Li's life is decaying, as if it was decaying before the peak. At that time, the Tang Fox will be in the world, there is nowhere to hide, and the soul and flesh of the Tang Fox will shine like a beacon in the world, guiding their own direction for those who are truly at the pinnacle of the world. And Tang Li's ninth prosperous life was all caught, or died because of these things.

Perhaps the truly strong disdain to ascend with the help of external objects, but when they stop at the top of the mountain, who can really have the great perseverance to face the passage of life bit by bit and see no hope?

Tang Li took a sip of wine and smiled, "You say, the avenue is endless, isn't it terrible?"

Qiao Shiyi looked at Tang Li in confusion and said these stupid words, "It's just the end, the master is talented, and naturally there is a way to spend it." Anyway, the master is still far from the end. ”

Then he looked at Tang Li with a look of contempt, "You are a mortal who can't cultivate, you can't talk to your master, you don't even know what Diwang's upper realm is, right?"

Tang Li listened to the violent noise deliberately made by Yun'er in the kitchen, and then smiled at Qiao Shiyi and said, "It's okay, I'll ask you when I set foot on the cultivation." ”

Qiao Shiyi asked suspiciously, "Is it really okay?" I see that you have entered the period of decay, can you still live?"

"Ahem, to be honest, I don't know if I can survive, and I'm not sure right now. ”

"Do you need your help? But you won't help people for no reason. Qiao Shiyi added a little fire and asked Tang Li.

"Well, a story, how about a chance to help me?"

"The story is interesting, let's hear it. ”

"One day a dog was happy to snatch a beautiful jewel from the mouth of a pack of jackals, tigers and leopards, and he ran and ran, and ran and ran, wanting to take the jewel home and not to keep it alone. But the jackals, tigers and leopards chased and chased frantically, and they bit the dog frantically, but the dog was really powerful, and it actually let it escape, but the jewel was swallowed unintentionally. Tang Lixi drank slowly and slowly told a story about dogs.

"Generally speaking, shouldn't its owner heal its wounds well, and then drive away the wolves, tigers and leopards that hurt it?" Qiao Shiyi squatted next to the stove, staring at the fire and not knowing what to think.

"The master did kill the wolves, tigers and leopards. Tang Li sneered, "And then there is nothing alive except that stupid dog, and then ......"

Tang Li took a deep sip of wine, choking so much that he kept coughing, and his tears were about to choke out.

"And then, kill the dog...... Bead ...... Right?" Qiao Shiyi sighed, took the wine thrown by Tang Li, and took a sip.

"If the story ends so well, then why bother? ”

"The human heart is the most impenetrable thing. Tang Lixi walked slowly to the stove and squatted down, because he felt that he was a little cold, and it was the coldness of his soul. I don't know if I can really survive the decay period? If I can't even survive the decay period, let alone the blooming flower of the avenue, even survival is probably just a luxury!

"Then what do you think of people's hearts?" Qiao Shiyi asked.

"In everyone's heart, there will be a line, the length of the line is different, one side is good and the other is evil, but most people are in the middle of the line, neither good nor evil. Through continuous learning and experience, everyone's good and evil are different, and their positions are different. But there will always be something, so that good and evil, after all, only one side remains. ”

Tang Lixi was very sad, "Alas, in the final analysis, it's just that the interests are not high enough, and the ambitions are not big enough." ”

"Then do you believe that there are really good people in this world?" Qiao Shiyi asked solemnly.

Tang Li threw a piece of sweet potato into the stove and shook his head, "I don't know, anyway, I'm not a good person, but I think that if I meet your so-called good, so-called good people, then I am willing to try to protect these things." ”

snatched the wine jug from Qiao Shiyi's hand, "After all, people always want to protect something beautiful, don't they?" Tang Li smiled, and said secretly in his heart, even if it is full of holes!

Qiao Shiyi hugged his fist at Tang Li, "This sentence to you, hey fox, I will only charge you a hundred taels of silver to help you." ”

Tang Li squinted his eyes and glanced at Qiao Shiyi, "Qiao Gouzi, do we have to talk about the rent first?"

"Uh, haha, just kidding. Fifty taels?"

"Twenty. ”

"Thirty?"

"Fifteen, don't pull it down. ”

"Okay, deal, don't count my rent!"

"And, fox, if you survive this time, remember to invite me to drink. Qiao Shiyi looked at Tang Li.

"You're running out of wine in my jug!"

"If I were alive next spring, I would invite you to drink all the fine wine in the world. Tang Li said with a smile.

Yun'er took advantage of the gap in the conversation between the two, put the half-burnt tiger thigh meat in the room, wiped the corners of her clothes with her greasy hands, and looked at Tang Lixi with a smile, "Okay, I will definitely take Yun'er with you to drink next year!"

In the prince's mansion, the prince took the news that his subordinates sent him to the bookcase, and the eldest princess of Wuguo made a move on Tang Li? The prince flashed, it seems that this princess is not easy to deal with, it seems that he still has to use a plan to eradicate it. The prince rubbed his head, there was still some time left, and he still felt that time was too tight.

"Someone, let someone take my jade pendant, go to Zhang's mansion, and tell Zhang Ze that I have a deal to find him. ”

"Yes, Your Highness. ”

"Wait a minute, this is not in a hurry, arrange it, I will go to East Street. ”

"Yes, Your Highness. ”

......

The third prince Li Zeyuan came to this somewhat familiar-looking, but unusually unfamiliar imperial study, stunned at the door, ten years, from a child playing here, to being forced too hard by the eldest brother and he and the second brother took the initiative to go to another country to be a proton. Now that he's back, is my father okay? I didn't care about myself at the beginning, alas, should I blame him?

Old Eunuch Wei looked at the Third Highness being distracted, and reminded in a low voice: "My ancestor, Your Majesty is waiting for you inside." ”

Li Zeyuan immediately reacted, and hugged his fists at the old eunuch Wei, and the old eunuch Wei said to the palace: "Your Majesty, the third highness has come down." ”

"Hmm"

Entering the imperial study, Li Zeyuan looked at his father, who had not seen him for many years, and was very emotional, kneeling down and bowing, "Sons and daughters see their father." ”

"Good boy, come, sit down. ”

Li Zeyuan looked at his father, who was already very old, and the wolf skin jacket was draped on his body, and now he was still tirelessly correcting the government affairs of the Chu State, but the occasional cough, and the hand holding the chapter was trembling faintly, alas, the father was really old.

"I don't blame me, I haven't paid attention to you all these years. ”

"Erchen didn't dare, his father probably wanted to exercise his son's ability, and I believe that Erchen has not disappointed his father over the years. ”

Emperor Chu nodded, "Well, you've done a good job over the years." Didn't disappoint me. ”

Emperor Chu looked at the third son, who was sitting a little restrained, thinking about the thing that he sent someone to do, he should have done it at this time, "I have worked hard for you all these years, and I will compensate you well." ”

Emperor Chu handed a box to Li Zeyuan, Li Zeyuan looked at Emperor Chu suspiciously, "This is?"

"Half Mingke. ”

"What!" Li Zeyuan looked incredulous, how could his father know that he wanted this thing? And shouldn't this be a treasure in the Chu Treasure? Could it be that the father emperor had a way to enter?

Emperor Chu smiled faintly on his old face, "Don't you want to find this thing?" take it back and try it to see if it works." The other half was given to him by your eldest brother in the early years. ”

Li Zeyuan was so excited that he was about to kneel, and Emperor Chu waved his hand and supported Li Zeyuan's body with a wave of spiritual power, "It's okay, there are no outsiders here, I allow you not to kneel, take it back and save your little woman." ”

Li Zeyuan grabbed the box, and couldn't wait to fly back to the mansion now, after all, this is what he was waiting for, even if it was only half of it, it was hope!

Seeing Li Zeyuan like an ant on a hot pot, Emperor Chu couldn't bear to hit him, but he still said slowly, "It's not something you should do if you have children, but I don't care so much about you because you've been running around and working hard all these years." Half of Mingke doesn't know if it's useful, if it's useless, you can come to me again, I will think of a way for you to go to Chuzang, but only this time to make an exception, you don't tell your two brothers. ”

"Yes, the sons and daughters will obey the holy decree, thank your father!"

"Well, stand down. Emperor Chu lowered his head, picked up the fold and continued to correct it.

"The son will retire. ”

Watching Li Zeyuan return home in a hurry, Emperor Chu sighed in his heart, alas, he was born at the wrong time, no wonder I am.
