Chapter 54: Digging Trees

The Great Qin Dynasty destroyed the three dynasties of Han, Zhao and Wei, and a total of thirteen marquises.

These thirteen princes and their subordinates each guarded one side, like thirteen solid cornerstones to support an unprecedentedly powerful empire, these thirteen princes naturally had a status far beyond ordinary court officials in the entire Great Qin Dynasty.

Their status derives from the countless enemy powerhouses they have killed, from the countless military exploits they have made, and from the great power they possess.

In a sense, many of the great Qin Dynasty's current vast territories were laid down by them, so they deserve to have an extraordinary status.

Therefore, for Changling, of course, they can be regarded as powerful people who can really speak, and they can express their attitudes and opinions on some things.

This young man belonged to the seat of one of the princes, and his appearance at such a time naturally represented the attitude of that prince.

If he belonged to the Dugu Hou Mansion, maybe it was because of Dugu Bai, but he belonged to the Hou Mansion that had nothing to do with Ding Ning.

Thinking of the Lushan Huimeng before Fang Xiu walked away, Fang Yu's meridians in the Lushan Guild Alliance were completely destroyed, and Fang Houfu almost existed in name only, and some people present began to react that this young man represented the attitude of all Houfu.

In the past many years, although Empress Zheng Sleeve's control over the entire Changling Tomb was strict, she was extremely fair and would not cross an invisible line.

Now, all the princes naturally hope that Empress Zheng Sleeve will follow her previous principles.

Most importantly, they don't want to see the birds hidden.

These princes did not express any opinions on Zheng Sleeve's attitude towards the Aries Cave, but when Xue Wangxu died before the Minshan Sword Meeting began, these princes began to express their opinions on the matter of Ding Ning and the palace maid surnamed Rong.

General Liu Gong was not a fledgling cultivator, so he knew better than most onlookers the meaning of this young man standing up for Ding Ning.

He could risk offending one of the princes, but he would never dare to offend all the princes, because some of them were very violent and cruel.

His complexion changed in a variety of ways, and he did not make a sound.

The long-haired young man with a delicate face turned his head to look at Ding Ning and said softly, "You always need to go down a step." ”

Ding Ning bowed slightly to him and thanked him, then turned to look at General Liu Gong, saluted seriously, and said, "Please complete the general." ”

General Liu Gongjiang was silent for a moment, said nothing more, just turned around and walked back to his courtyard.

Everyone watched in silence as Jing Liuli and Ding Ning entered his courtyard, not understanding what Ding Ning was going to do.

"Do you really want to dig up an osmanthus tree and go back?"

Jing Liuli didn't understand what Ding Ning was going to do, in her opinion, if there was no young man who represented the attitude of all the Hou Mansion to break the siege today, Ding Ning's spirit would be greatly damaged. At this time, seeing Ding Ning walking straight towards the osmanthus forest in the backyard, she who was following closely behind Ding Ning finally couldn't help but ask softly.

Ding Ning didn't look back, and replied softly: "Wait a minute, you have to spend more effort, and when you dig that osmanthus tree, you have to dig more soil at the same time." ”

Jing Liuli's brows suddenly furrowed, but she didn't speak anymore, just continued to follow behind Ding Ning with her head slightly hung like a real maid.

However, what she didn't expect, Ding Ning did not remain silent, but asked rhetorically after a slight pause: "What have you learned from today's incident?"

Jing Liuli was stunned and said, "What?"

"In everything, we must always pay attention to a rational word. Ding Ning still didn't look back, but said slowly: "Sometimes it's not just that the sword is ruthless enough to be unreasonable. Because the vast majority of people will be worried that such unreasonableness will fall on them. ”

......

The osmanthus forest in General Liu's mansion is very large, and most of the osmanthus trees are very old.

Perhaps it is precisely because these osmanthus trees are old enough and very rare, so Liu Gongjiang has not changed the pattern of this osmanthus forest too much.

Not even a small pond in the osmanthus forest has not changed.

It's just that compared with many years ago, some of the osmanthus trees in this osmanthus forest are a little thicker.

At this time, the lotus flowers in the pond are already in full bloom.

Ding Ning sat down on a stone by the pond, looked at the lotus in silence for a long time, then stood up, kicked the edge of the stone, and whispered to the waiting Jingliuli: "The pure circle is cut here, six feet deep, it will not hurt the inside, and it will smooth the roots." ”

Jing Liuli thought carefully about the meaning of Ding Ning's words, and then her gaze fell on the osmanthus tree closest to this stone.

This osmanthus tree grows very low, but it is very stout, and it looks like the osmanthus flowers will be in full bloom this autumn.

"Is there a problem with hurting the leaves?"

After a few breaths, she looked at Ding Ning sternly and asked.

Ding Ning glanced at her and said, "No problem." ”

Jing Liuli's gaze fell on the sword on Ding Ning's waist, "You didn't let me bring the sword." ”

"You don't need my sword. ”

Ding Ning's gaze fell on the low osmanthus tree, and said, "You can use it as a sword." ”

Jingliuli suddenly understood.

She was silent for a few more breaths, then bowed down to Ding Ning and saluted seriously, then turned around, the osmanthus tree in front of her, and then held a thin branch that was slanted in front of her.

Like drawing a sword, she pulled the twig up.

There were many strange sounds coming from underneath the dirt, as if a sharp object was cutting.

But at this moment, her brows furrowed deeply, and she realized that she could not control such a sword intent.

So she made a change in an instant.

The twig snapped off and turned into a thin sword in her hand.

Then she swung to the ground below, and all the true yuan in her body gushed out.

The twigs only shook for a moment, and then they couldn't withstand such a terrifying force and turned into ashes.

However, at this moment, the twig swung in an arc.

With a snort, a sword light drew a perfect circle along the osmanthus tree and fell into the ground.

Jing Liuli took a step forward, instantly grasped a thin branch, and lifted it up again.

The whole osmanthus tree was pulled out of the ground like a sword unsheathed, along with a circle of earth.

There was a soft click.

The twig was broken off by the net glaze.

Jing Liuli's right wrist moved slightly and lifted it up.

The twig lightly cut off the rhizome at the bottom of the soil, and then picked up the whole osmanthus tree with a cloud of dirt.

The finger-thick twigs picked up the heavy soil and osmanthus trees, and they didn't even bend them, but Jing Liuli's feet had sunk slightly into the ground, and the sneering voice in her sleeves kept ringing, and her face was not relaxed.

"Feel at ease, be at ease. Don't stick to which sword you are, it's your sword intent. If you are too confident in your own sword, you will naturally have the idea of defeating your opponent with a single sword, but this idea may not be in line with the sword intent you are cultivating. ”

Ding Ning looked at Jing Liuli, who was not easy, and said this slowly and clearly, and then began to move and walk out.

Jing Liuli was indeed very difficult, maintaining a strong true yuan output, her body seemed a little stiff, but when she heard Ding Ning's words, her breathing paused slightly, but she bowed down to Ding Ning again, and then began to move, and asked at the same time: "Just put the carriage directly?"

"Just put it in the car, I can sit outside. ”

Ding Ning didn't look back and said, "Don't hurt the soil." ”

Don't hurt the dirt, it's a weird thing to say at this time, but at this time, Jing Liuli seems to be able to fully understand what he means.

The people waiting outside General Liu's mansion were extremely shocked to see Jing Liuli appear with a thin branch carrying a whole osmanthus tree.

Bang.

Before they could get used to the picture, the thin branches of the pure glass that had come to the carriage had already fallen.

The twig gently swept away the carriage, and then continued to gently hold the falling osmanthus tree.

The lump of dirt was still a lump of dirt, lightly placed at the bottom of the carriage, and not even a single piece of dirt had collapsed.

"The most important thing in the sword is the result, not just a direct sword represents good luck, as long as each sword is very comfortable, the final result is also very comfortable. ”

Ding Ning glanced at Jing Liuli with satisfaction and sat down.

He sat in front of the tree, and because there was no dirt to spill it, the place where he was sitting was still clean. R1058
