Ninety-three: Death is eternal
After Lin Xizhen woke up, he did not talk to the people in the Central Plains, but injected internal force into the unconscious Wu Shengxuan to help them wake up. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Liu Ruyi had been rescued by Xiao Bei, and accompanied by Xiao Bei, they expressed to Lin Xizhen the idea of leaving Wu Shengxuan temporarily. Unexpectedly, Lin Xizhen did not stay, just lightly blessed a few words, and then led the rest of the troops to protect Yang Sichang and Dolgon and quietly stay away.
The Central Plains Wulin side did not stop it, and after listening to the description of the Li family's abandonment of the son twenty-two years ago, they also had the intention of introspection, and before the truth of the matter was ascertained, they did not want to act recklessly, so as not to repeat the mistakes of the past.
What's more, they have their own troubles to deal with.
The name of this trouble is Guo Shulin.
That "Guan Gong" told Guo Shulin about escorting Yang Sichang to meet with Dolgon. If this happened before, then the Central Plains Martial Arts would never be tolerated, and Guo Shulin would have been regarded as a traitor and a public enemy of the martial arts, and he would never die. But Lin Xizhen's incident gave them a warning, letting them know that with only one passion and brute strength, not only can they not succeed, but they are afraid that they will also do bad things.
It is absolutely impossible to draw conclusions about the right and wrong of this matter, and who is right and which is wrong.
Gu Fengxi faced Guo Shulin and said with a solemn expression: "Brother Guo, do you have any reasons for helping Yang Sichang and Dolgon this time?"
Guo Shulin's face was fearless, and he said truthfully: "In order to save the Ming Dynasty, Lord Yang came here to negotiate peace with Dolgon, and wanted to pay tribute in exchange for peace between the Ming and Qing dynasties. In order to buy time, the outside and the inside. I agree with his approach and help him. ”
Hearing this, Shi Nian clasped his palms together and said: "Amitabha, I have heard about this matter, but the fact of paying tribute is to lose power and humiliate the country, once it is done, I Huaxia will not be able to raise my head before the Manchu Dynasty, how can I agree?"
Guo Shulin smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Yang told me a great truth before, and I can't repeat it. But when I got along with him, I knew that he cared about the world and was by no means a traitor. My generation is only a martial artist, and I don't understand the pros and cons, but if I listen to the slander of others and go against my parents and officials who serve the country and the people like this, I am afraid that it is not chivalrous duty!"
When Shi Nian heard this, he remembered the Li family's abandonment of his son, and at that time, the Central Plains group of heroes also listened to slander, and there was no distinction between loyalty and treachery, so that it was self-defeating and the world was in chaos, how similar was the situation at this moment? Thinking of this, he nodded slowly and said: "What Master Guo said is very true, the poor monk has been taught. ”
Lei Cangxiong refused to give up, and said angrily: "I just can't swallow this breath, if my Ming Dynasty really bows down to the Manchus, how can our children and grandchildren hold their heads up? If this is the case, Lao Tzu will immediately pretend to be a horse thief and go to the Manchu country to kill people and set fires." ”
Zhang Zhinan suddenly said: "As far as I know, this tribute is actually a tribute to the Ming Dynasty by the Manchu Qing Dynasty in exchange for the Ming Dynasty's reward to the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and at the very least, the two countries are on an equal footing." There is absolutely no possibility that the Ming Dynasty will be a vassal to the Manchus, who are you listening to when you say this?"
"Really?" Lei Cangxiong felt a lot more relaxed when he heard this, but then said with a bitter face: "The person who said this to me is not small, right? It seems that he is an important figure in the Donglin Party, how can he lie?"
"Donglin Party?" Xiao Bei's heart suddenly tightened, and he had an ominous premonition in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What is that person's name?"
Lei Cangxiong scratched his head and said, "I forgot a little, Master Gu and Abbot Shi Nian were also present at that time, you can ask them." ”
Gu Fengxi thought about it and said slowly, "That was two weeks ago, when we just learned that the Immortal Seeking Alliance would be in advance. The heads of our three factions were gathering in Wudang Mountain to discuss together, and suddenly someone came to report that Mr. Qian Qianyi, the leader of the Donglin Party, had something to ask to see. Mr. Qian Qianyi is famous all over the world, and we dare not slack off, so we immediately invited him in. After that, he told us about Yang Sichang's quest for tribute. ”
"Qian Qianyi...... How could it be? At that time, he was a guest with us in the Gongyi family, and he would never appear in Wudang Mountain, thousands of miles away. Xiao Bei shouted.
"I can testify to this. Lu Guanzhong and Liu Ru said in unison.
Gu Fengxi's face was full of doubts, and he said: "This is strange, but I have seen Mr. Qian Qianyi before, and the person we met has the same face and conversation as him, and it is definitely impossible for others to disguise it." ”
Xiao Bei lowered his head and pondered: "Could it be that Qian Qianyi on our side is fake? No, if he has always known him, and even pretended to act together as a husband and wife, how could he be mistaken? Moreover, ...... These two Qian Qianyi acted diametrically opposed, one instigated the three major sects to intercept and kill Yang Sichang, and the other helped Dolgon meet with Yang Sichang, if both things were done by Qian Qianyi, could he be crazy?"
He thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't find out, but felt that the matter was becoming more and more confusing.
Just as everyone was thinking about their hearts, suddenly there was the sound of horses' hooves kicking the ground in the distance, and it seemed that a horse was rushing towards the venue.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, only to see a white dot in the distance moving here, Zhang Zhinan suddenly shook his body, and said in a trembling voice: "It's amazing...... Snow Lotus is here, I'll go to the Baifengqi stable to hide for a while, you must not reveal my whereabouts. After that, he didn't look back, just ran away. In the blink of an eye, his body dissolved into the night.
Not long after he ran away, Xiao Lu and the others saw Xue Lian riding a horse, stopped in front of the two, glared at the two, and said, "Where is Messenger C, where are you hiding him?"
Lu Guanzhong's eyes rolled as he sighed, and said, "He heard that Chen Yuanyuan, one of the eight Yans of Qin Huai, came to the Baifengqi, the largest green building in Tongren City, and ran away like he didn't want to die. Auntie, go to him quickly, maybe you can catch the rapist in bed. ”
Xue Lian frowned, her antlers trembled slightly, her fingers flexed and stretched, and she suddenly said in astonishment: "Yu Ji, what is she doing here......?" Is the palace master ordered again?"
Xiao Xiao looked at Lu Guanzhong and said suspiciously, "How do you know?"
Lu Guanzhong touched his head and asked, "What do you know?"
"Chen Yuanyuan is Yu Ji, that is, your uncle's wife. Xiao Bei said.
Lu Guan Zhongdeng showed a look of surprise, and then like a dog with meat and bones, his saliva flowed, and he said, "Really? I said it casually, and I actually caught it in the middle of it." Wonderful, wonderful, really wonderful, I must not miss this drama of wife and concubine meeting family lovers. Let's go and see. ”
The rest of the people didn't know what the two were talking about, but they also heard that it was inconsequential, and saw that the two of them had a wicked smile on their faces, and quietly walked in the direction of Tongren. couldn't help but shake his head frequently, feeling that the two of them were extremely boring.
Liu Ru and Ye Fuxiang were not to be left behind, and quickly caught up with the two. Liu Ru stepped forward and put his arm around Xiao Bei and said, "Yuanyuan is also married, why didn't you say it earlier?"
Xiao Yi frowned and said, "Why do you want to add the word 'also'?"
"Because we 'also' have a marriage contract?" said Liu Ru with a smile.
When Xiao Bei heard this, he couldn't help sighing, and made a sad face, which provoked Liu Ru to bite and scold for a while. Lu Guanzhong gloated and laughed evilly. It didn't take long for the four of them to leave the venue of the Immortal Seeking Alliance and disappear without a trace.
――――――――――――――
Seeing that most of the Central Plains sect had been damaged, and the Immortal Seeking Alliance could no longer be held, Qunhao couldn't help but feel heavy, and successively collected the corpses of relatives and friends, and didn't even say a word of politeness, so they went their separate ways.
Lan He saw that although the gang leader ran away without a trace again, it was fine, so he put his mind at ease and no longer thought about the Sword Xiao Palace. He took a deep look at Guo Shulin, and left with the rest of the beggars.
Gu Fengxi, Shi Nian, and Lei Cangxiong saw the peerless martial arts of "Guan Gong", and heard him claim to be the messenger of Jianxiao Palace, only to know that he was really far from Jianxiao Palace, so he gave up the idea of seeking immortals and asking questions, and each said goodbye to Guo Shulin and resigned, and returned to the sect to resume his life.
In the blink of an eye, the originally bustling crowd was gone, and the large venue was empty and extremely lonely.
Hua Jingyue was by Guo Shulin's side, seeing that he looked lonely, thinking that he was sad that he could not be the leader of the alliance, so he comforted him softly: "Guo ...... Sect Master, don't be sad, although this Immortal Seeking Alliance is gone...... But after all, you are still the sect master of my Sword Spirit Sect, so why don't you go back to the Sword Spirit Sect with me, and I will introduce your female disciples to you......"
Guo Shulin shook his head and said, "Flower Woman, please go back! I have a heavy responsibility now, and the master is about to go on the expedition, so I can't leave the Rulai Dojo alone." When Master returns safely, I will take the burden off my shoulders and come to the Sword Spirit Sect to find you. With that, he waved his hand to Hua Jingyue, and then hurried towards Fanjing Mountain.
Hua Jingyue looked at his distant back, bit her lip lightly, her face turned red, and said stupidly: "Guo Shaoxia...... You promised me, and I will always remember it. If you don't come to me, then I'll find you at the ends of the earth. Her voice fell, and she drifted away like the wind.
With the departure of the flower mirror moon, there was no one in the venue of the Immortal Seeking Alliance, the bright moon rose, and the light sprinkled on the ruins and ruins of this place, illuminating the corpses all over the ground, as if this place was a forgotten corner of the world, where life bypassed, and time was frozen here.
Those so-called national enemies, family hatred, competitiveness, verbal swords, conspiracies, right and wrong, good and evil, immortals and demons, in the end are just bamboo baskets and water, and they become empty in the blink of an eye. Eventually, it will turn to dust and cease to exist.
Only silence is eternal, and death can live forever.
