Chapter 16 Seeking Trust

Whether friendship is no match for love, whether sadness is not sad or not, it is only someone else's business after all.

Ji Qingqing was silent for a long time, then looked up at the man and said slowly, "You mean, as long as I see Baili Suxue, I will naturally understand that this is the truth." ”

"Actually, when you see your junior sister, you already have the answer in your heart. The man looked at her and said, "You're just trying to figure out a lot of things." ”

"Before Zheng Sleeve arrived in Changling, he already felt that I was a threat, and he had to turn me into a person who was not a threat to her, and even be used by her. Ji Qingqing said sarcastically: "At that time, there were several female cultivators in Changling who were more famous than me, I didn't expect her to look up to me so much. ”

"Jiaodong County has ambitions, although it occupies the convenience of direct access to overseas, and is rich in production, and is located in a remote place that is difficult for the old magnates to control, but the accumulation of power, wealth, and the heritage of the six dynasties in Changling and Guanzhong are indeed enough to regard Jiaodong County as a hillbilly. The man said softly and humbly: "If Jiaodong County wants to compete with the old magnates, it must have something special. ”

"Seek peace and letters?" Ji Qingqing frowned slightly.

The man nodded and said, "This plan and faith are not stratagems and trustworthiness, but counsellors and messages. There are many disciples and strategists in Jiaodong County, and most of them only do one thing, that is, to collect information and spy on intelligence. ”

After a pause, he continued: "Not only in Changling, but also in Jiaodong County, in Guanzhong and various dynasties, and even in some barbarian places, there are many spies and rich rewards, and every year, many young children and young people selected and trained by Jiaodong County are sent to all parts of the world, and this is still the case today. In the decades that were despised and excluded by those old magnates, all Jiaodong County did was to wait for the appearance of such a person as Zheng Sleeve, and weave such an invisible net. ”

Ji Qingqing's violent mood disappeared slightly, and when he thought about it, a gate valve, a county's decades of accumulation of momentum and planning, fell on him, this is not a personal grudge that can be described, some emotions and resentment, there is simply nowhere to go.

It's more chills and fears.

Even if you understand everything and want revenge, it is not so easy.

At this moment, the man who had been following Zheng Sleeve for nearly twenty years said something that made her feel even more chilled and made the cold even more annihilate her violent emotions: "Some things seem to be accidental, but in fact, they were already destined when she had not yet set off in Jiaodong County. Originally, in the arrangement of those doormen in Jiaodong County, Zheng Sleeve should be with Baili Suxue, not Wang Jingmeng. ”

Ji Qingqing's body shook slightly, and he suddenly laughed, "Does Jiaodong County want to replace Heaven's will and arrange everyone's lives?"

The man didn't care about the coldness and ridicule in her words, but said calmly: "Although Wang Jingmeng was already sharp at that time, in the eyes of Jiaodong County, Baili Suxue is far more advantageous than Wang Jingmeng and Yuanwu, in their eyes at that time, Baili Suxue's talent is no less than Wang Jingmeng, and the Minshan Sword Sect is in Changling, and it can be used by Jiaodong County, so it is naturally the head of the sword in the world." It's just that the only thing they didn't expect was that Baili Suxue didn't appreciate Zheng Sleeve, and they didn't expect that person to almost lead the Bashan Sword Field as the head of the sword in the world with the strength of one person. ”

Ji Qingqing was silent for a moment, and said: "To put it simply, Jiaodong County thought that Zheng Sleeve and Baili Suxue were together, but I didn't expect that Baili Suxue felt that she was not a good person, and she switched to Wang Jingmeng, and finally cheapened Yuanwu." ”

The man nodded and said softly, "No one can be exhausted, and no one can replace Providence."

"This Changling looks either black or gray, the streets and alleys are straight and straight, flat and stable, simple and unpretentious, who knows how many mutual insidious calculations are hidden in it, and things are dirty. Ji Qingqing laughed disgustingly and asked the man, "What's your name?"

The man replied respectfully: "My real name is Zhao Gao." ”

"Zhao surname?" Ji Qingqing raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised, "Are you from Zhao?"

"If you talk about the real ancestor, it is Zhao Sinmin, who went into exile in Jiaodong County. Zhao Gao said.

Ji Qingqing was silent for a moment, smiled, and still smiled ugly, "Then Zhao Gao, do you know what I want to say most now?"

The thoughts of a big man cannot be guessed by others, let alone a woman like her, who is full of strong hatred.

So Zhao Gao shook his head very simply.

"Baili Suxue can't look down on her, Wang Jingmeng finally broke with her, how does Yuanwu treat her?" Ji Qingqing laughed with cruelty and pleasure, "What is the difference between a woman like her, who is unparalleled in the world, and a woman in Fireworks Willow Lane, in the end, she still can't get the sincere companionship of a man." ”

Zhao Gao was silent.

After all, women's ideas and men's thoughts are somewhat different.

It's just that even such a character died because of a woman's betrayal back then, and how can it be clear which is bigger or smaller between the world's affairs and women's affairs.

......

Pan Ruoye stands quietly on the riverside.

This is a tributary of the Wei River, a small wild river, not far behind Pan Ruoye, is the Changling city wall under construction, you can vaguely see the outline of the city wall and the streets and alleys of Changling.

She had been standing silent for a long time.

The woman, whose face was also scratched by the sword, and who was once her master's younger sister, didn't know what she was thinking at this time, became more and more frightened, and finally cried again.

Crying is not something that practitioners do very often.

This weakness comes from a lack of strength.

This woman's body is far stronger than the average person, but in a sense, she has not been a cultivator for many years.

Because several important meridians in her body had been too badly wounded to recover, the true yuan could not be condensed at all, that is, she was the kind of leaky sheepskin raft on the river, and if she was pushed into the river, she would sink.

"What the man said should be true?"

Listening to her crying, Pan Ruoye slowly turned her head, looked at her, and asked, "Your injury is that the queen left when she wanted to kill you?"

The woman wept and nodded.

"Let's go. ”

Pan Ruoye no longer looked at her, but finally figured out what to do, looked at the river in front of her, and said.

The woman even stopped crying, trembling with fear, looking at the water in front of her, she couldn't help but wonder if the other party was so vicious, she didn't give a sword happily, but forced herself into the cold winter water, let herself drown slowly?

At that moment, however, she heard the sound of water, and saw a small boat slowly sail out of the bleak reeds and the bushes, and headed for it.

She froze.

But the fear didn't go away.

"You're not trying to kill me?"

She looked at Pan Ruoye and asked in a trembling voice, "Where do you want me to go?"

"Even a person who is familiar with the methods of Jiaodong County will be found out just by bringing you to Changling, and only by sending you directly from here to other countries will you not fall into the hands of the queen. Pan Ruoye looked at the small canopy boat and said softly: "Don't worry, I will let you leave safely." I'll make arrangements. ”

"Send me away?"

The woman froze again, and waited until the boat arrived in front of her before she reacted, and couldn't help but look at Pan Ruoye and ask, "What about you?"

Pan Ruoye smiled bitterly, thinking that the previous hesitation had finally come to an end today, and said lightly: "Since I sent you away, I will naturally not return to Changling." ”

The woman got into the boat, and the sound of the waves began.

The boat gradually drifted offshore.

The woman's flowery face was already hidden in the canopy, but half of her face was revealed from the darkness, and the tears were not dry but there was real gratitude.

"Chen Wang Jianjing, in fact, I haven't really been able to take Changling away, you have to go back to Changling once. ”
