Chapter 105: Fate and Choice (11).
"Are you Zhang Xusheng?"
Xu Qingfan stared closely at the mysterious middle-aged scribe who suddenly appeared in front of him, and asked slowly, his voice was unexpectedly calm. Provide a > for reading the latest chapters
Zhang Xusheng, this name is already one for the current cultivators
Even if you hate him, you must admit that he is unusual, and even if you are at odds with him, you must understand that his experience and exhibition are a legend that cannot be replicated.
Xu Qingfan had thought many times about what would happen after he met Zhang Xusheng, drawing his sword and fighting each other, or turning around and running away? All the possibilities were thought about again, but he never thought that he would be treated so calmly. The high-ranking grandmaster, in front of Xu Qingfan at this moment, seems to be just an equal being.
is about to die, even if the person in front of him is Zhang Xusheng, what is there to be afraid of?
Zhang Xusheng looked at Xu Qingfan in front of him with interest, Xu Qingfan's eyes were calm and calm, this calmness and peace, without the slightest hypocrisy.
Seeing Xu Qingfan like this, Zhang Xusheng no longer concealed his identity, nodded slightly with a smile: "It's indeed me, how did you guess it?"
"With your strength, there will never be more than ten people in the world, but with your characteristics, there is only one Zhang Xusheng in the world. Xu Qingfan looked directly at Zhang Xusheng's unfathomable eyes, without a trace of fear, and said lightly: "The most important thing is that you just said that you almost died twice not long ago, which reminds me of the battle that should have almost ended at this time - the battle between my Righteous Path Alliance and Zhang Xusheng can make a master like you almost die." There are only the Grandmasters of the Righteous Path Alliance. ”
Zhang Xusheng nodded slightly. said: "I see, I thought you remembered my face." ”
Suddenly remembering something, Zhang Xusheng asked again: "By the way, in my base camp, the failed real products under the dungeon were released by you, right?
Xu Qingfan was slightly stunned. "How do you know?" he asked.
Zhang Xusheng smiled: "When that demon appeared, I guessed that you must have mixed in." It's just that at that time, I didn't expect you to be able to destroy so much, and those old guys from the Righteous Path Alliance could push me into a desperate situation this time. You have half the credit. Hehe, I calculated in vain, thinking that I had no last resort, but I didn't expect it to be planted in your hands. ”
"You shouldn't underestimate me. ”
As the conversation deepened, Xu Qingfan's mood became more and more peaceful. Turning his head to continue to look at the sunset in front of him, which seemed to be very close to him, he said lightly.
"Yes, I did underestimate you, and before you knew it, you had grown to such a point, whether it was strength, mind, or perseverance. ”
Zhang Xusheng nodded in acknowledgement.
"I've ruined your big deal. You should hate me. However, I didn't feel Xu Qingfan say suddenly.
"Why should I hate you?" Zhang Xusheng shook his head. "Life is full of fun because of accidents. The fate that I have arranged is too boring. This time I failed, almost died, but I didn't feel resentment or chagrin, I just felt funny, you know? I haven't felt that for a long time, and if you get anything too easily in your life, then life becomes boring. Life with challenges and ups and downs is truly meaningful. ”
Zhang Xusheng smiled faintly and said, but he also looked at the sunset in the distance like Xu Qingfan, his eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking about or remembering.
Then, Zhang Xusheng didn't speak, Xu Qingfan also chose to be silent, both of them watched the sunset silently, and the two diametrically opposed people sat side by side, and the atmosphere was unexpectedly harmonious and calm.
After a long silence, half of the sunset had sunk below the horizon, Xu Qingfan suddenly coughed twice, spurting out a large amount of blood, which was mixed with pieces of liver fragments. His eyes were dilated, his skin was becoming more and more gray, and at this moment, even the "Holy Spirit Relic" could not effectively prevent his body from collapsing.
With Xiao Hei's scream, Xu Qingfan was about to fall to the ground, and the god of death finally came to Xu Qingfan at this moment, and was about to take Xu Qingfan away from him.
If there is only one person in this world who can delay the pace of death for a moment and a half, then this person is Zhang Xusheng.
I saw that Zhang Xusheng suddenly stretched out his hand to hold Xu Qingfan's body that was about to fall, and between his hands and Xu Qingfan's contact, a soft and mysterious force entered Xu Qingfan's body, and after running a circle, Xu Qingfan was surprised to see that the degree of collapse of his body was suppressed a lot, but it was another moment and a half of time to survive.
"Thank you. ”
Xu Qingfan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said with a breath.
"No, I don't. ”
Zhang Xusheng smiled, nodded, and had a flat conversation, as if the two were old friends who had known each other for many years.
After a long breath, Xu Qingfan finally calmed down, looked at Zhang Xusheng in front of him, and said: "I have had many guesses, guessing what kind of person you are, but I didn't expect you to be such a ......"
Halfway through his words, Xu Qingfan stopped, not knowing how to describe it, or Zhang Xusheng, a rare sect master of the evil path for thousands of years, talking to him so calmly at this moment was an incredible thing in itself.
Zhang Xusheng stood up, laughed, and said: "What kind of person I am, no one in the world can really figure it out, even if it is me, I don't know what I am thinking about and what kind of person I am." ”
"yes, it's unreasonable, I don't know what you're going to do next, it's really hard to deal with. ”
Xu Qingfan also wanted to stand up like Zhang Xusheng, but he didn't have any strength in his body, so he simply gave up and responded lightly.
"Actually, you are similar to me. Zhang Xusheng suddenly said: "Or rather, I am very similar to before." Whether it's the experience. Or character. ”
"You have only seen me once, how dare you say that we are very similar? No one in the world dares to say that we are like you, you are the only one, you think too highly of me, and you look down on yourself too much. ”
Xu Qingfan said. What he said about "only seeing it once" refers to the fact that more than 100 years ago, Zhang Xusheng disguised himself as a Mahayana master in the "Ascetic Valley". helped him stop the rebellion of the "Demon Bead" in the Southern Wilderness, and at that time, Xu Qingfan also regarded Zhang Xusheng as a respectable senior, but it didn't take long. Zhang Xusheng personally hit the Jiuhua vein with his own hands and almost removed him from the immortal cultivation world.
"It's not like we've only met once, in fact, I've observed you many times without you knowing. I know you more than I can imagine, I know you more than anyone else. We were all born in Jiuhua, we were all deacons and elders in Jiuhua, we were all ordinary, but we all have potential that others do not have, and you and I are all roads that have never been walked before. And also. You, like me a long time ago, are pedantic and persistent. Attach importance to responsibility, respect teachers and respect the ......"
"Ha!!" I heard Zhang Xusheng say this. Xu Qingfan suddenly couldn't help laughing. Perhaps, the only good thing about dying is that you don't care about anything anymore and laugh when you want.
Zhang Xusheng sighed faintly, and his sigh seemed to carry a long time, and said lightly: "I said it a long time ago. At that time, your ancestor had just entered Jiuhua. At that time, I was probably more arrogant and withdrawn than you, more like Feng Qingtian, but in essence, I was more similar to you. ”
Xu Qingfan no longer laughed, indeed, he had heard Mr. Liu say that before Zhang Xusheng defected from Jiuhua, his reputation in the immortal cultivation world was very good, "he is a scholar with a good personality but a little pedantic." This is Mr. Liu's evaluation of Zhang Xusheng at that time.
But why did Zhang Xusheng become like this at this time? I think there must be a reason, but Xu Qingfan was not interested in knowing at this time, but just sighed faintly: "It's a pity, that was just you a long time ago, you are different from before after all." And I won't be the person I am now, at the end of the day, we're still different. ”
Zhang Xusheng seemed to think of something, a trace of inexplicable brilliance flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a nonchalant smile, and said: "Or, if you have experienced the same thing as me and have a human personality, you will be exactly the same as I am now." ”
Xu Qingfan didn't hear some of the hidden meanings in Zhang Xusheng's words, and said to himself: "Do you know? After I inadvertently entered your base camp before, looking at the ground there, your various arrangements, I always think again, how good it would be if you were a righteous person? If you are a righteous person, under your leadership, there will not be so many catastrophes and troubles in the immortal cultivation world, but it's a pity that ......."
"There are some things that are not taken for granted. Zhang Xusheng said lightly: "The Heavenly Dao is destined for you to fall into the evil way, and you are powerless to resist." ”
"No, as long as you have such thoughts and determinations, how can you enter the evil path? In the final analysis, it is just that you cannot control the evil thoughts and ambitions in your heart. ”
Xu Qingfan shook his head, but in front of Zhang Xusheng, he habitually preached.
Zhang Xusheng smiled slightly, but he didn't care, and suddenly said, "Do you want to know why I became the way I am now?"
Xu Qingfan glanced back at Zhang Xusheng, coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood, and said softly: "You say, I'll listen." ”
"As I said, I was really like you a long time ago. At that time, I loved my master very much, but unfortunately, he died, his longevity dried up, and he died of destiny. Then I thought, can I create another way, out of the cultivation of immortals, I have to work hard to improve the realm in order to extend the longevity a little, but the extended longevity is not enough for the monk to break through the next realm, after years of exploration, I have created these secret methods that I am now cultivating, to seize the essence of the world in my body, so that the world becomes my inexhaustible longevity ......"
"And then, you're invaded by evil spirits?"
is a very simple story, Xu Qingfan has already guessed the ending.
"Yes, the evil qi invaded the mind, and unconsciously, what I did began to get out of control, Zhang Hualing is also a character, he uses the secret method that I have explored for hundreds of years, and he is still invaded by the evil qi. What's more, back then, I was purely groping forward on my own, and before I knew it, the evil qi had invaded my mind, and when I felt it. And there is nothing to be done. Back then, I wanted to find a new path for the monks of the world. It's long gone. ”
Zhang Xusheng shook his head and sighed.
Xu Qingfan was silent for a moment, but he shook his head and said lightly: "Don't say that you are so great, and don't compare yourself with the head of the family, he has at least fought against evil qi for hundreds of years." ”
Zhang Xusheng smiled slightly and said, "How do you know that I haven't made any efforts?"
"Have you tried?"
Xu Qingfan asked rhetorically.
Zhang Xusheng smiled self-deprecatingly, and said slowly: "The world thinks that I, Zhang Xusheng, am a crazy person and do things unreasonably. Constantly biting like a mad dog at those who are powerful but pose no threat to me, such as the Righteous Path Alliance, such as the Zhong family, such as the underworld organization. But for those who are not strong for the time being, but are very likely to threaten me in the future, I always let them go, and even try their best to help them grow, such as Feng Qingtian. For example, Zhang Yi, and then for example...... You!"
Xu Qingfan listened quietly, and he also felt strange and unimaginable about these.
"I used to think that I was just doing this to fight the boring life and find real excitement. But once. A friend of mine, codenamed Xuandiren. But it is clearly pointed out that I did a qiē. At that moment, I suddenly realized that this was the case, and that what I had done was indeed seeking death. A long time ago, Zhang Xusheng did not have a thorough news under the invasion of evil qi, he constantly influenced me, influenced me to find opponents stronger than me, and influenced me to cultivate my enemies, until the moment when I was completely ruined, because he knew better than anyone how dangerous I was to this world. ”
When Xu Qingfan heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, for this point, he had never thought that what Zhang Xusheng did and what he pursued turned out to be self-destructive?
"Then after you understood, you didn't stop it?"
Xu Qingfan asked.
Zhang Xusheng smiled slightly, and asked rhetorically: "Why stop it? I said before that this kind of life will be interesting." ”
Xu Qingfan pouted, under the obsession of evil thoughts and self-destruction, Zhang Xusheng's thoughts were indeed different from others.
"It's a pity. Zhang Xusheng sighed and said: "So far, there is still no one who can kill me, can stop me, before Zizhen Liu Ji and others joined forces, I thought I was going to die soon, but unfortunately, they are still a little close." ”
While speaking, Zhang Xusheng turned his head to look at Xu Qingfan, with an inexplicable look flashing in his eyes, as if a child had gotten the longed-for toy.
"In this battle, I want to understand that the only one who can destroy my Zhang Xusheng is Zhang Xusheng himself, or another Zhang Xusheng. There's no way I'm going to kill myself, and I still have a lot of evil thoughts in my head that haven't come true, so it would be interesting if I could create another Void Saint to rival someone who is very similar to me. And you are so similar to me back then, if you change it somewhat, you may become another person. ”
Hearing Zhang Xusheng say this, Xu Qingfan finally became alert, struggled and couldn't get up, sat down on the yellow sand, stared at Zhang Xusheng tightly, and asked in a cold voice of guard: "What do you mean? What do you want to do?"
The corners of Zhang Xusheng's mouth smiled slightly, at this moment, the faint and calm atmosphere between the two sides no longer existed, and Zhang Xusheng also re-became the mysterious and unscrupulous evil path master before.
"This is the arrangement of the Heavenly Dao, otherwise, why would I meet you after I have such thoughts?" Zhang Xusheng said with a light smile: "You just now seem to be very dismissive of my inaction when the evil qi invaded and became an evil person, so, now let's take a look at what you will do when you encounter such a situation, can you maintain the good thoughts in your heart, or become like me now?"
"What exactly are you going to do?"
Xu Qingfan had an ominous premonition in his heart, and asked coldly.
"You remember this, right? Speaking of which, we first met because of this thing, and it was because of this thing that I started to pay attention to you. If I hadn't seen you this time, I would have forgotten that I still have such a collection. ”
As he spoke, Zhang Xusheng's hands were raised slightly, and a black bead the size of a fist suddenly appeared in his hand.
With the appearance of this black bead, the "Anti-Heaven Sword" beside Xu Qingfan suddenly let out a long roar of excitement, and the demonic energy on it soared.
"The Nine Magic Orbs are still in your hands. ”
Xu Qingfan said word by word, as if he had thought about the fate he would face in the future.
