Chapter 104: Life might as well be a teenager
In the Gobi Desert outside the Saiwai, some people walked alone, and the young man wore a white cloth linen robe, carrying a sword box behind his back. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Shaanxi to the west is the West River Plain, with the Qinghe River as the boundary, and the grassland is far away from each other, Emperor Taizu of Da Zheng once set up Xihe Prefecture here, after Xiao Yu took power in the last years of Da Zheng, he integrated the states and incorporated Xihe Prefecture into Shaanzhou, but the older generation is still used to calling it Xihe Prefecture.
Xiao Yu started from the grassland, but the trend is in the northwest, Xiheyuan is the hinterland of the entire northwest, and Zhongdu stands here.
In the early years, when Xiao Yu was only a prince, because the grassland had been returned to obedience at that time, the main threat to the central capital was not from behind, but the Qin government of the first line of Yanzhou in the north, so Xiao Yu built a fortress on the Xihe Plain, known as a village in ten miles, a fort in five miles, closely listed between the passes, a total of 36 villages, with the largest Danxia village as the core pivot, connected into a piece.
After the defeat of Qin Zheng, the herdsmen raised a large army to take the opportunity to capture Shaanxi, and drove straight into Xihe Prefecture, and the Northeast Army and the Northwest Army launched a decisive battle on the Xihe Plain, and it was the battle of Danxia Village that decided the victory or defeat.
It's just that if it's peaceful today, Danxia Village has gone through several changes and has not seen the war and wolf smoke of the year, but has become a quite prosperous place on the Xihe Plain, although it is still a village in name, but it is almost the same as the ordinary city of the Central Plains. Many young people who don't want to dig in the soil and don't want to go too far from home will come here to earn a living, and he was one of them.
Now that I have lived in this land for 20 years, I have only been away for a few months, but I am like a world away.
The outside world, the flying immortals, the powerful kings and grandsons, are like a bizarre dream, and there is no trace after waking up from the dream.
But the sword box behind him reminded him all the time that it was not a dream.
When it was approaching dusk, the man with the sword box on his back approached Danxia Village in the twilight, and the lights that were lit up early were faintly visible in the dim light, which was where the hook fence in the village was located. He walked slowly, and walked into the city gate of Danxia Village with a familiar car, and he didn't see the slightest rustiness, but the bearing on his body didn't look like a character in this small place.
He entered an inn, occupied a table, placed the sword case opposite him, and asked for a bowl of wine and a bowl of water.
The young man first picked up the bowl and poured the wine in front of the sword box, and then took the bowl and drank it all.
From the moment he entered the door, the innkeeper felt that this young man was a little familiar, but he was a little afraid to recognize him, after all, the young man in his memory was just a dirt bun who had not seen much of the world, but the person in front of him did not look like a character who could come out of a small place in terms of bearing or demeanor, but was more like a scholar from the Central Plains.
The young man held the water bowl and looked at the sword box, stunned.
Whether it is a poetry and a book in his belly, or a sea that was difficult to water, now he is no longer the frog at the bottom of the well who yearns for the outside world, along the way, he has seen the scenery comparable to the sky, and his mentality is very different.
Xu Beiyou had no interest in catching up with the shopkeeper, but just stopped here for a while, got up again, walked through Danxia Village, and left from another gate of the village.
He's going to Xiaofangzhai.
When he came to Xiaofang Village, it was already dark and late at night, and only one of the entire village was still lit up.
Xu Beiyou came to the door of the house with the sword box on his back, pushed the door in, the old man who was reading put down the scroll in his hand, raised his head, his eyes first paused slightly on Xu Beiyou's body, and then landed on the sword box behind him, and asked softly: "Gongsun Zhongmou, he ......"
Xu Beiyou nodded and said in a low voice: "Master, his old man has passed away. ā
The old man sighed faintly and did not speak.
After a long time, the stereotypical face of the silver-haired old man moved slightly, and he said softly: "Tell me, what happened." ā
Xu Beiyou hesitated a little and roughly talked about his experience during this time.
The old man sat on the recliner, shook it gently, squinted his eyes, and said: "It is not uncommon for the dust leaves to make a move, but it is a great miracle to be able to provoke the autumn leaves that do not go down the mountain for sixty years, which shows that the current situation is very delicate, even the first person in the world can not sit firmly in Kunlun, if the old man is not mistaken, Gongsun Zhongmou should be planning to fall to the imperial court, which caused the Daomen to completely tear his face." ā
The old man paused slightly, and continued: "Beiyou, you have also seen the battles in those cultivation worlds, even if Gongsun Zhongmou is a carefree immortal, one of them will fall into it if he is not careful, what are you going to do?"
Xu Beiyou sat on a small bench in front of the old man, this is where he sat when he was a child, put his hands on his knees, slowly closed his eyes, and said softly: "A meal is still Ming'en, and he has been taught and promoted, only the word blood is missing, and it is difficult to repay virtue with a thousand gold, even if it is about human affection and physics, it should also cry blood for three years." Sir, I want to avenge my master, and at the worst of all, I want to fulfill my master's last wish and restore the Sword Sect. ā
The old man nodded, "The truth is like this, but if you want to take revenge, it is as difficult as ascending to the sky, not to mention that Autumn Leaves is the head of the Dao Sect, and he has a huge Dao Sect, even if the gods come into the world, they may not be able to do anything to him, just say that Autumn Leaves' current cultivation, even if he uses the Demon Suppression Cone to damage his own fortune, it will only be able to soar in twenty years at most, and at that time, who will you find to take revenge?"
Xu Beiyou opened his eyes and said calmly: "It's man-made, it's a big deal to fight again in the sky." ā
Han Xuan didn't speak, he who used to be an official to the second assistant naturally knew the world better than Xu Beiyou, and he knew better what kind of existence this real person in charge was.
Avenge?
Kill a Dao Sect Master?
This is not much easier than overthrowing the Great Qi court.
However, it is a good thing for young people to dare to think and dare to do it, Han Xuan does not want to hit this child raised by himself too much, he is not an old man who likes to talk eloquently, and he doesn't like to talk about any big truths, at least not when he is not drinking, so it is impossible for him to say the righteousness of the sage, but he has lived in the countryside for many years, and he has many different feelings.
Han Xuan said slowly: "Beiyou, you were raised by me since I was a child, but do you know why I never taught you anything, but instead handed you over to Gongsun Zhongmou?"
Xu Beiyou shook his head and humbly accepted the teaching.
Han Xuan gently patted the handrail and said, "The reason why I haven't taught you anything over the years is not because I don't want to teach, but because I don't dare to teach, for fear of ruining your piece of jade." Because I am from the same humble background as you, some things have become a stereotype in me, just like a small family jasper, even if there is a bit of beauty, after all, it is inevitable that there will be a small family spirit that comes out of the roots, let me teach a family is no problem, because it just complements each other, but let me teach you again, but it is easy for you to become the second Han Xuan. That's why I will hand you over to Gongsun Zhongmou, who was born in a family, this is like everyone's girlfriends, even if the posture is insufficient, but there is a natural wealth and pattern, let Gongsun Zhongmou help you expand your horizons, this is the best choice. ā
Xu Beiyou nodded.
Han Xuan closed his eyes and said softly: "In my life, there have been several ups and downs, I have been a so-called celebrity who talks about things, and I have been penniless like now, I have been a great minister, and I have also been reduced to a prisoner of the lower ranks, and in the end I have left nothing for the rest of my life, and I have lived in vain for more than 80 years. Now I want to understand a truth, don't have worries when you are young, and do what you want to do, so when you are old, you will not have so many regrets. ā
"Look at Gongsun Zhongmou, he couldn't let go of the Sword Sect, so he went to recover the Sword Sect and died freely. Look at me again, the turtle is huddled in this small village and lives a miserable life. This is the little family spirit I said, it varies from person to person, and you don't want to learn from me. ā
Xu Beiyou was silent for a while, and asked, "I came back this time to ask Mr. what I should do next." ā
Han Xuan stopped tapping the handrail, opened his eyes, and said, "Go to Jiangdu to find Zhang Xueyao first, and ask her to help you take the sword qi volley hall left by Gongsun Zhongmou in your hand, and as for the rest, leave it to Mr. and me." ā
Xu Beiyou was stunned for a moment, and then said in shock: "Sir, you want to go out of the mountain again?"
Han Xuan said with a smile: "Life can be more than a hundred years, why not be crazy and young." ā
