"As soon as the war is over, the court side has successively stripped us of our military power. Except for the eighth eldest brother, who has the best relationship with the senior brother and canonized the governor of the capital, the other senior brothers have all been promoted from military attachés to civil officials..."

"Huh. ”

The old man sneered...

"Who can't see the thoughts of the senior brother, it's just that he is afraid that our high achievements will shock the main numbness. Even if the bird is hidden, it is not impossible to cook a rabbit and a dog according to the character of the senior brother. ”

"The senior brother put this way, but the hearts of the senior brothers are cold.

Scattered and scattered, secluded and secluded, even Fengxian left Lao Yin and returned to Chunyang. In Kyoto, Lao Yin is left alone in the palace as a concubine..."

"Then sir, you're here to ask God?" Peony couldn't help but interject.

"Huh"

The old man laughed to himself.

"Hehe... yes."

"At that time, the old immortal just died. He is so good that he will not die, and when he dies, he will leave his last words, asking me to ask the heavens to take his place. Can I not come?"

“......”

Peony was silent, she had never seen an old man so rude as tonight. Somewhat at a loss...

The old man continued.

"It's okay to come..."

"That smoky Kyoto, only Lao Yin and their old bastards who eat people and don't spit out bones can stay. Those of us who are reading, just find a place to study with peace of mind and bury the rest of our lives..."

“......”

"Just ......"

"If only I could feel at ease..."

"It ended up being fishy..."

The old man said a few words intermittently, and then pulled the story back to the point.

"Ever since the brothers and sisters dispersed. Everyone has finally lived a happy life for half of their lives, probably as long as fifty or sixty years. ”

"Although we are unhappy, the brotherhood is there. Every other year, we always have a place to get together and catch up. Over the years, our relationship has not been much stranger. ”

"It's just that Lao Yin and Senior Brother are different..."

"Even though we're not in Kyoto, we don't know what happened to them. However, every year when we get together, we can feel the coldness of the two of them..."

"That's cold... It gets colder and colder every year, until the last few years, when the hostility comes..."

"In those years, we didn't try to help them out. But they won't listen to us at all..."

"Hey..."

"At that time, we all thought, just don't listen. Everyone is a brother, so it's impossible to fight. ”

"But..."

The old man choked up and paused.

"Eventually, however, they did fight... and fought endlessly. ”

"I remember it was the decade of the apocalypse..."

"At that time, we were already old men, and we had long been downset about the two of us. People are old, what can they fool around?"

"But who would have thought that in the early spring of that year, Lao Yin personally went to the Immortal Xing Chunyang Palace, and I don't know what method was used, so he actually invited Fengxian to the palace as a martial master..."

"This action really scared us. ”

"Fengxian is Lao Yin's knife, he took the knife in his hand, it was going to kill..."

"Who he wants to kill, everyone knows. ”

"It's just that we now understand that the two of them have fought to the point of endless fighting, and it seems too late..."

"In the second month of Fengxian's entry into Beijing, the senior brother also went to Xianxing, and he also didn't know what method he used, so he actually invited the second senior brother who had returned to Chunyang for more than 50 years to Kyoto. ”

"What are they fighting for?" Xia Xun suddenly asked in confusion.

The old man shook his head: "We haven't figured out what they are for until now. However, it is absolutely impossible to be like that..."

As for what it is, it is estimated that only he and he know it in this world. ”

The old man looked at Xia Xun: "You should know something about the next thing, right?"

"Know some. Xia Xun nodded.

The old man looked up and continued to look back at the night sky.

"The business for most of their lives has allowed the two of them to hold the two lifelines of the Tang Jianghu court. The important ministers of the older generation who can contain them have already retreated, and those who are dead have died, and even those who are alive do not dare to make a slight accusation. At that time, the two of them could not be said to be without monstrous power, and the Son of Heaven should also be jealous of them. ”

"In the next 20 years, Datang was disturbed by them... Lao Yin taught the prince of a dynasty, controlled the court officials, and laid out all kinds of princes. The senior brother has the power of the big **, and he deploys troops everywhere to secretly check and balance. At that time, there was an open and secret struggle between the two, but even the ordinary people underground could see it clearly. ”

"Hey......"

"It's all fought to that extent, and we senior brothers can't persuade it at all, and we can't persuade it. I can only watch them fight all the time, and the fight will become more and more fierce. ”

"I have been fighting until the thirty-second year of the Apocalypse, and the time is finally coming"

"I still remember vividly that it was a very cold day, and it snowed very hard. ”

"That morning, the palace summoned hundreds of officials and announced that the prince would be the crown prince and grant amnesty to the world. ”

"As soon as the decree was given, a change came. ”

"That day, the secret message of Shinma had not yet come out of Kyoto. At noon, I received a letter from Lao Yin's thousand birds. He asked me to go to Beijing immediately and take Prince Ming away. The envelope was written with three urgent words written in large size..."

"After reading the letter, I knew that something big was going to happen, otherwise Lao Yin would not have asked me for the matter, and besides, it was still a thousand birds. Therefore, I didn't think much about it, and I left as soon as I received the letter, and the morning came late. ”

"However, when I entered Beijing in the evening, Kyoto had already changed..."

"At that time, the senior brother was really moving. Not only did he move out of the edict of the Son of Heaven, but he ordered a million forbidden troops to blockade the entire Chang'an City. At the same time, he also scattered a thousand birds, and under the banner of rescuing the Lord, he transferred troops from Lishan, Beipi and other important border towns to the north."

The old man shook his head, a look of regret on his face.

"Looking back now, in fact, Lao Yin had already lost at that time. Throughout the ages, Wuding has been a country of culture and security, how can Lao Yin win with only morality in his hands?"

"After I entered Beijing, I went directly to Taifu's Mansion. Lao Yin immediately handed over the Ming Emperor to me, and without saying anything, he asked me to bring people back to Wentian. ”

"It was a real emergency, and I didn't want to ask much. And he took the men with him, as he willed..."

"On the third day when I returned to Wentian with Prince Ming, an urgent report was sent from Kyoto. Unsurprisingly, it was also unexpected. Something really happened in Kyoto, and it was a big event!"

The old man took the last modal word, and stretched it very long...

"It was on the morning of the day the decree was proclaimed. When today's son, that is, the prince of Kang back then, actually rebelled against the Jinluan Palace, in front of the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, he killed the monarch and seized the throne! And the person who helped him up was the senior brother. ”

"At that time, Lao Yin and Fengxian were still taking the Ming Emperor and waiting to be sealed on the altar. Who would have thought that the elder brother would suddenly go crazy? They wouldn't have had time to go back to the rescue. ”

"By the time they reacted, Senior Brother had already ordered a million forbidden troops to seal the city, blocking his two steps, and washing the Jinluan Hall in blood..."

Helpless, Lao Yin at that time could only choose to send the Ming prince away first, and then lead Fengxian back to the palace Qingjun side. It's just that when they returned to the palace, it was too late. The million-strong forbidden army returned to guard the Four Holy Gates, and the senior brother, the second senior brother, and the eighth brother shot together. With such a lineup, even Feng Xian, who had already broken through to the Heavenly Saint level at that time, was helpless. Lao Yin and the two of them can't even kill the Xuanwu Gate at all..."

"That's right, Senior Brother's move is too ruthless, and he cut off all the back roads of Lao Yin with one sword..."

"In the end, Lao Yin broke the cauldron and wanted to go to the pure yang to take the supreme divine sword. ”

"But that divine sword is the treasure of the Pure Yang Town Sect, how can ordinary people control it? That's obviously another local numb of the elder brother..."

The old man put down his fan, and his eyes became solemn.

"After Lao Yin left Kyoto, he scattered a thousand birds, sent the royal guards from all over the country to gather in Yueyang to escort him, and at the same time sent an urgent message to our senior brothers, asking us to join him in Xianxing..."

"Hey..."

"Isn't it difficult for us? The back of the hand and the palm of the hand are all meat, and it is not to help anyone. Moreover, at that time, the second senior brother was already a pure Yang Heavenly Master, and Feng Xian was just a chief second-generation disciple, not in charge of military power. If you go, you must fight..."

"In the end, the only ones who decided to help were me and the eighteenth. No, who let us have a good relationship with him?"

"So we took the people to the fairy line and joined them... Lao Yin drank and ordered Fengxian to dance the sword to open the way, and we were responsible for the break, and two thousand to one million went all the way to the Pure Yang Palace. We guarded the palace gate, Feng Xian and Lao Yin, and took the little madman who was still Feng Xian and the sword boy at that time, into the palace. ”

"That..."

As soon as Xia Xun opened his mouth to say a word, the old man straightened up his fan and stopped.

"As for what happened in the palace that night, don't ask me. Except for the three of them, only the head of the palace and the former Heavenly Master knew. ”

"And we only know that after they came out of the palace on the second day, the half of Fengxian's body was unraveled, and he held the seven stars that melted the sword soul in one hand. That momentum is really invincible in the world..."

"In the days that followed, the 2,000 of us were spectators. The soldiers who came to attack and kill along the way, not to mention hundreds of thousands, were all killed by Feng Xian with one sword and one sword. Kill all the way back to Yueyang City..."

That's when the big war really began. ”

"Senior Brother almost dispatched the entire Tang Dynasty's forces to encircle and suppress Yueyang. The second senior brother relied on the excuse of attacking the sect to send all the pure Yang Zhi vein disciples in the Tang Dynasty into the army to assist the attack. And in Yueyang City at that time, in addition to the princes and guards of all walks of life, there were only the disciples and grandchildren of the four brothers, Lao Yin and me......"

"Hey......"

"I can't fight this battle at all......"

"As far as our little people, if we fight against the entire Tang Dynasty, this is simply looking for death. Moreover, at that time, Prince Kang had already ascended the throne, the Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and the generals in the army were all his people. Even if we can win the battle in the end, when the Ming Emperor ascends the throne, it will be just an empty shelf..."

"Win or lose, we can't have a good result. ”

"For this reason, I had a disagreement with Lao Yin. He is the main battle, and I am in peace with the old eighteenth master, and everyone is in dispute. Helplessly, in that case, it is impossible for me to bet on him..."

"So, in the end, I chose to get out of the game. ”

"Hey..."

"He continued to fight..."

"100,000 defending the city, tens of millions attacking the city, this battle was fierce enough. If it weren't for Feng Xian's presence, they would have been defeated long ago..."

"It's tragic..."

"This battle lasted for half a year, and the 100,000 in the city became 40,000, and the outside of the city was killed by Fengxian into a mountain of corpses as high as the city wall..."

"Senior brother, their courage is estimated to have been broken by Feng Xian at that time. ”

"Hehe..."

The old man laughed dryly, a little miserably.

"Feng Xian didn't just kill the little gall of a few of them, even the heavenly gall was killed..."

"After the killing, all the big names were killed by him. ”

"The Buddhist monks of Xizhou, the poisonous venerable, the mountain lord of the north, the immortal monarch of the south, the yellow spring falling from the upper firmament, the nine heavens and ten earths, the cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods, all who should come are here. It's no different, they're all coming for the immortals..."

"Why?" asked Peony, blinking.

"Huh."

"This hand, the senior brother and the second senior brother have already arrived..."

The old man smiled disdainfully: "What can I do... were all killed by Fengxian and choked. There are already two old monsters in charge of the Pure Yang Palace, if you let the little monster Fengxian grow up for a few more years. That pure yang is not only rampant and domineering in Datang. ”

"Who is not afraid of this? Now taking advantage of the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty, Chunyang and the second senior brother are holding it back, how can they let it go at such a good time?"

"Oh," Peony nodded as if she didn't understand.

"You all know what's next..."

The two sides fought for more than half a year. Most of the big people who came were cut down by Fengxian, and the people who defended the city in Yueyang City also died in thousands of places. Lao Yin, they are about to lose their hold. As long as Senior Brother has another general attack, Lao Yin and them will be finished..."

"Thankfully, it was around that time. The master came, and the Fengxian Xuanzu and the Pure Yang Heavenly Master also arrived in time. ”

"This battle can finally stop..."

"Hehe..."

"Who are the two old monsters, Shizun and Chunyang? They stopped at Yueyang Tower, and everyone didn't dare to move. Just said a few words, and forced Lao Yin and the senior brother to make a heavenly oath never to fight. ”

"They don't dare to put a fart..."

At this time, the old man showed a smile that seemed to be self-deprecating.

Since then, Lao Yin and his disciples and grandchildren have returned to the Northland, leaving the Seven Stars and the Sword Soul in seclusion. And the senior brother and the second senior brother, one squatted back to the Tower of Babel, and the other was taken back by the two old monsters of Pure Yang..."

"To this day, we have not seen each other again..."

Xia Xun couldn't help frowning as he listened. He found that the end of the story was told by the old man in a hurry. It seems that something was omitted, or something was deliberately concealed.

He pondered for a moment, but couldn't help but ask: "What about the Ming prince back then?"

“......”

The old man was speechless for a while, and his eyes were full of remorse and resentment.

A small dark cloud obscured the bright moon, and it was pitch black. The bamboo leaves around were silent, quiet, silent.

Worries come from this...

wound cohesion,

It's hard to remember the past.

No matter how difficult it is to go, I am sad and sorrowful.

Twenty years of grievances and hatred, how many young people's heads have been white.

"I killed..."
