Chapter 12: Xiao Xuan's decision
In the dead of night, Xiao Xuan went out of the house, straddled the stone steps in the courtyard, supported his somewhat weak body with both hands, and looked at the dark night sky in a daze.
After five years of travel, after hardships, searching for the mysterious Ghost Valley, tempering the martial arts state of mind, and on the last journey back, he designed to kill the great strategist Li Chunfeng, who was fishing for the country, but Li Chunfeng fought back on the verge of death, so that the dantian qi sea suffered a heavy blow, and thirteen years of penance were all in vain, and even his life was almost lost.
The price is not heavy, however, even if he starts all over again, Xiao Xuan will still choose to kill Li Chunfeng without hesitation, although he doesn't know what Li Chunfeng's identity is in the Ghost Valley, but with Li Chunfeng's strength and resourcefulness, his status in the Ghost Valley will never be too low.
As long as it can make Guigu hurt his muscles and bones, Xiao Xuan is willing to do it, even if he can't let Guigu hurt his muscles and bones, at least he can disgust Guigu.
"Guigu, where are you hiding?"
Xiao Xuan frowned slightly, and was very puzzled in his heart, with the strength of the Northern Liang Palace, there are few things in the world that cannot be done, however, the Ghost Valley is indeed an exception, to this day, there is still no exact location of the Ghost Valley in the intelligence of the Northern Liang Palace.
"Is it really hidden in the city?"
Xiao Xuan thought about it, then shook his head and denied this conjecture, if the ghost valley was really hidden in the bustling city, it would never escape the eyes of the Beiliang spy.
"No matter where you're hiding, I always have a way to dig you out!" Xiao Xuan's gaze gradually became fierce, no matter what the cost, he had to find out the ghost valley.
It's just that thousands of miles away borrowed a knife to kill Li Chunfeng, which led to thirteen years of penance in vain, if you want to take revenge with your own hands, everything must be started again, and it is even more difficult than before.
Although his martial arts talent is not outstanding, he can at least be diligent and make up for his shortcomings in the past. Now the dantian qi sea was collided by Li Chunfeng's strange and unpredictable power, leaving an almost incurable dark wound, if it weren't for the marrow washing method left by his mother to forge his body with strength, he would not even be able to save his life.
"What do you want?" Xiao Ning didn't know when he arrived next to Xiao Xuan, leaning on Xiao Xuan and sitting on the stone steps, just like the family sitting in the courtyard watching the stars when they were young, at that time their mother taught them to count the stars, and their mother said that everyone has the brightest star in the sky, Xiao Ning looked at the lonely night sky and lost his mind.
The mother is gone, the father entered Beijing, the eldest sister married Yingchuan, and even the younger sister is studying abroad, and there are only two sisters and brothers left in the huge palace.
"How many daughters-in-law do I want to marry?" Xiao Xuan quickly reined in his emotions and grinned.
"Of course, the more the merrier, I helped you find some, such as Zhong Zhihua, the daughter of Zhong Hui, the envoy of the Northern Liang Jingluo, and Yang Pei'er, the granddaughter of Yang Xu, the former head of the household department...... Xiao Zhiqing, the daughter of Jinzhou general Xiao Gong......"
"Wait, Xiao Gong seems to be our father's cousin in the next room, and he doesn't even let go of his own family?" Xiao Xuan hurriedly interrupted Xiao Yun, who was like an endorsement.
"Whatever, as long as he is good-looking, he can marry back, and our family can afford it. Xiao Ning said domineeringly.
"With my small body, I can't bear it!" Xiao Xuan's head was big for a while, and he immediately raised his hand to surrender.
Xiao Ning glanced at Xiao Xuan and said seriously: "That's right, we can't let them stay in the empty room alone." ”
Xiao Xuan rolled his eyes, this is definitely his own sister, otherwise, he would definitely turn his face on the spot, face is a fart at some point, and being strong is king.
"Second sister, why hasn't Xiao Zhan come back yet?" The night was dark, the evening wind was cold, and His Royal Highness the weak Prince couldn't help but shiver.
"Some people in Tian'an City always want to fix some moths, but as long as the 500,000 iron horses in Beiliang do not disperse, Your Majesty will not dare to touch our father, at least not blatantly attack our father. ”
"If Xiao Zhan can slash Yu Wenyong with one sword, I will really convince him. Xiao Xuanlong put on his clothes and said lightly, his words were not shocking.
Xiao Ning glanced at his younger brother, if he was so rebellious, I am afraid that only this prince of Beiliang, who is not afraid of heaven and earth, dares to say it in the entire Great Zhou.
No matter how many iron cavalry there are in the Northern Liang, how the king of the Northern Liang is brilliant, as long as the Northern Liang does not rebel one day, the Northern Liang will be the territory of the Great Zhou court one day, and they will be the people of Emperor Yuwenyong.
"Thirteen years ago, although the Great Zhou Imperial Court was not directly involved, this matter is absolutely inseparable from the Imperial Court, and I have never understood why Xiao Zhan simply reversed the Great Zhou ......."
"Actually, I don't understand either. ”
Xiao Ning nodded, not only did she not understand, but the whole world did not understand, the Great Zhou Dynasty suppressed the Northern Liang everywhere, but Xiao Zhan, the king of the Northern Liang, had no objection, which was really incomprehensible.
With the power of Northern Liang, as long as Xiao Zhanken is in the yellow robe, Northern Liang definitely has a chance to become another dynasty other than Great Zhou, Great Chu, and Great Qi. Even, it is not impossible for the Northern Liang Iron Cavalry to go south to capture Tian'an City, replace the Great Zhou, and then compete for the world.
"I didn't understand it before, but after five years of traveling, I began to understand a little.
In the past five years, I have traveled almost all over the Central Plains and Kyushu, and I have seen too much prosperity, but I have seen more poverty and suffering.
I remember that there was a family of seven in the old Xishu when the rice grain was only twenty or thirty catties for the whole winter, and the old man was willing to give out a bowl of rice to me and Lao Gao, and that time I and Lao Gao also ran away, in fact, we were starving to death.
Also, when passing through Liaodong, there was a great drought that year, and countless fertile fields were almost no harvest, adults gnawed on tree bark, and children gnawed wild vegetables......
Xiao Zhan rose in the chaos of the Ten Kingdoms, destroyed the four countries, and ambushed millions of corpses, he had seen too much blood and tears, especially after his mother left, he felt sorry for his mother, and he felt that the disaster that should have been retributed to him fell on his mother. So over the years, he has been reluctant to use swords and soldiers, hoping to seek even one day of stability for the people of the world, not only to atone for his own sins, but also to pray for his mother. ”
Xiao Xuan's eyes were a little red, in the past five years of travel, he has seen too many people and things, and some things he didn't understand before gradually understood.
......
Xiao Jing listened to Xiao Xuan quietly, and she didn't know when she burst into tears, she didn't walk in the world, she would never be able to feel the suffering of the people.
Xiao Xuan gently brushed the hair on Xiao Ning's forehead, and said softly: "Sister, as long as the imperial court is not excessive, don't use the Northern Liang Iron Cavalry, the Ten Kingdoms have been fighting for three hundred years to have the current situation." The stability of the world is not easy to come by!"
Xiao Ning nodded slightly, with mixed feelings in her heart, her mother left early, her father was busy with the military and politics of Northern Liang, and the eldest sister was too casual, she could only mature and take care of this family. After five years of tempering, her younger brother, who could only be trick-or-treating, has really grown up.
"Mother's revenge, I want to avenge it with my own hands. This is the last sentence that Xiao Xuan said when my sister and brother talked about their hearts and minds this night.
Xiao Ning looked at Xiao Xuan's back and opened his mouth, but he didn't make a sound, with Xiao Xuan's current physical condition, it was almost impossible to practice martial arts and practice Xuangong anymore.
The dantian qi sea was damaged, just like the foundation of the building was gone, how could a high-rise building be raised from the ground. However, with Xiao Xuan's character, once he has a decision, it is difficult to change.
Xiao Ning's eyes are firm, even if his younger brother Xiao Xuan can't practice martial arts, it doesn't matter, Beiliang still has her Xiao Ning, Xiao Zhan still has a daughter, and he can also destroy the Ghost Valley!
