Chapter 45: The Mystery of Song Zheng

The four-foot-tall boy sat opposite the tall Huangfu Yuxiu.

Huangfu Yuxiu hesitated for a moment and asked, "I take the liberty of asking, is Sect Master Song already in the royal court?"

The boy shook his head and said: "I have already said that the only person who knows Song Zheng's whereabouts can only be Tang Taiyun, if Tang Taiyun does not know, then no one will know." ”

Huangfu Yuxiu was still a little incredulous.

Regarding the whereabouts of Song Zheng, it has been cloudy and foggy, even if it is many high-level figures of the Wudao Sect, it is also in the clouds, especially the rising star like Huangfu Yuxiu, many things can only be hearsay, and they have never seen it with their own eyes, and it is difficult to find out the truth of what happened back then. However, there is no doubt that Song Zheng's whereabouts are unknown and his life and death are unknown, and it is recognized by the rivers and lakes.

Some people say that Song Zheng is actually a Taiyun, otherwise why could the originally unknown Tangtaiyun rise to the top of the Wudao Sect? Some people also say that Song Zheng practiced a strange exercise, not only rejuvenating himself, but also reversing yin and yang, from a man in the prime of life to a little girl, so no one could find him. There is also a saying that has emerged in recent years, saying that Song Zheng actually impersonated Li Xuandu, broke into the righteous path, and jumped to a high position, so Li Xuandu was able to leap crazy in two years, and the old sword god saw through this and expelled Li Xuandu from the division.

Taking the first guess as an example, there is a big loophole, what is Song Zheng's intention in becoming a Taiyun? If it is said that the purpose of changing his identity is to avoid a threat, then after Song Zheng becomes a Taiyun, he should hide behind the scenes, instead of taking the position of the Holy Monarch in a bright and open manner. The second guess has some truth, but it can't be confirmed, just like saying that Song Zheng is dead, there is no tangible evidence, it's really just a guess. As for the third speculation, it is completely nonsense, if Song Zheng really replaced Li Xuandu inexplicably, Li Daoxu would never be as simple as expelling from the division after seeing through it, but a killer, and later Zhang Jingxiu's attitude towards Li Xuandu also showed that Li Xuandu could never be Song Zheng.

So Huangfu Yuxiu doesn't believe these statements.

The boy glanced at Huangfu Yuxiu, and said indifferently: "I don't know much more than you, there is a saying: 'If the king is not secret, he will lose his minister, and if the minister is not secret, he will **." In this kind of life-and-death matter, the best choice is to know only yourself the ins and outs of the whole matter, and no one else, whether it is a husband and wife, friends or brothers, can be trusted, otherwise you will be putting your life in the hands of others. It doesn't matter whether you trust or not, it basically lies in not being able to tie your own safety to the thoughts of others, just like the Central Plains people want

But the peace could not hope in the mercy of the Golden Horde. ”

Huangfu Yuxiu sighed: "The last time I saw Sect Master Song, and the only time I saw Sect Master Song, it was twenty years ago, when I was still a child, I met Sect Master Song by chance, and I didn't know his identity at that time, he asked me some questions, such as what kind of person I want to be, what I hope the world will be like in the future, I didn't understand anything at the time, and I answered indiscriminately, but Sect Master Song seemed to be quite satisfied, and gave me a book before leaving, which is the 'Heavy Nine Xuangong' that I am practicing now." ”

Huangfu Yuxiu smiled bitterly: "From this point of view, Sect Master Song has been kind to me and the industry, and it is a big regret for me not to see Sect Master Song for the second time for so many years. ”

The boy was noncommittal, and instead said, "Do you know what kind of person can sit on the altar?"

Huangfu Yuxiu heard that the boy had an extraneous voice, "I would like to hear it in detail." ”

The boy stretched out a finger: "Those who die, those who ascend, to sum up, those who are not alive cannot be called gods in the world." What do you say?"

Huangfu Yuxiu fell silent, and after a long time, finally asked, "What happened back then?"

A wry smile appeared on the boy's face, "Betting on fortune can be done by one country, one place and one person." It's just that you must not make this matter the norm, you must gamble on your luck in everything, and you will lose if you gamble for a long time. Song Zheng used the body of cloth clothes to achieve hegemony, and he became a 'gamble' word, and his defeat was also a 'gamble' word. ”

Huangfu Yuxiu said movingly: "Dare to hear the details." ”

The boy said: "Twenty years ago, the twelfth jade void sword fight, both sides had a tacit understanding, Zhang Jingxiu and Xu Wugui did not make a move, and the two were responsible for maintaining order and arbitrating the victory. In the first four games, the right way was to win. In the fifth game, the Song political array beheaded the sect leader of the Faxiang Sect. In the sixth game, Qin Qing defeated Miao Zhenzong Wanshou Zhenren. In the seventh game, the Tibetan old man defeated the Taiwei real person of Donghua Sect. In the eighth game, Mrs. Leng narrowly defeated Bai Xiuyi. After the ninth game, the good and evil sides fought in four or five, and as long as the ten sects won the tenth game, they could win this sword fight. ”

"The tenth person in the battle of the Ten Sects is Tianle Sect, who was ranked eighth on the Taixuan List at that time, which is not strong, but he just met Li Daoxu. Because the news of both sides of the sword fight was submitted to Zhang Jingxiu and Xu Wugui in advance, before the sword fight began, no one knew who their opponent was, and Li Daoxu had not been out of the sword for a long time at that time, and no one thought that he would personally participate in this sword fight. The outcome of this battle speaks for itself. In this way, the two sides fought to a draw, and if they wanted to separate the winners and losers, they had to ask Zhang Jingxiu and Xu Wugui to take action in person. However, Song Zheng vetoed this proposal and decided that he would fight again, on the side of the righteous path, needless to say, if he wanted to win, it must be Li Daoxu who would fight in person. ”

"As a result of that battle, Li Daoxu took a sword

Broken river, two swords open the mountain, three swords defeat the enemy, for a time the world was impressed, praised as 'the way of the sword'. Song Zheng was seriously injured and dying, and was personally escorted back to the Wudao Sect by Taiyun. ”

Huangfu Yuxiu sighed: "Sect Master Song was only a thin line away from the immortal realm at that time, so why take such a risk. ”

The boy sneered: "It's just that I'm used to gambling, I always feel that every gamble must win, in the past, he was able to attack and kill the previous generation of the sect master of the Wudao Sect, and this time he can also get a bargain from Li Daoxu." ”

Huangfu Yuxiu said: "How can you often stand by the river without getting your shoes wet." ”

The boy said: "That's the truth. Although Song Zheng is arrogant, but not to fight uncertain battles, before the Yuxu sword, has identified Li Daoxu is his biggest opponent, through the Qing Weizong traitor Li Daoxing, and Xu Wugui to participate in the study of the 'Beidou Thirty-six Sword Technique', seeking a way to crack, Song Zheng once said: 'Don't dare to say that you will win, but self-protection is foolproof.' It's just that he didn't expect that Li Daoxu found the fairy sword 'knocking on the gate of heaven' before fighting the sword, Li Daoxu had already cultivated to be higher than Song Zheng, and he took advantage of the weapon, and Song Zhengyan could be undefeated. The world is impermanent, who can be considered to be exhausted? Song Zheng in the past and Xu Wugui today should all learn from this. ”

Huangfu Yuxiu nodded.

The boy continued: "After Song Zheng returned to the Wudao Sect, he summoned the two venerables, the four kings, and the elders of the halls to the bed, and began to explain the aftermath, and said: 'Fifty years of life is not worthy of death, although I have not yet known the destiny of heaven, but I have been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for many years, enjoying all the honor, happy and enmity, how to revenge, no more self-harm, but thinking of the monarchs, thinking of the great cause of the Wudao Sect, I can't bear to put it in vain...... 'I was also present at the time, and when I heard this, I suddenly saw Song Zheng's face pale, his lips trembled, his brows furrowed, and then his face twitched, extremely hideous. Seeing this, Tang Taiyun didn't let Song Zheng continue to speak, and asked him to live and recuperate, but Song Zheng refused, and reluctantly supported him and said: 'After I die, Tang Taiyun will take over the power of the Wudao Sect, and I hope that all the monarchs can support him with all his might, which is no different from when I was there. After saying this, Song Zheng trembled even more, and from the pores of his body, a tiny sword qi as thin as a cow's hair shot out, and his whole body was stained with blood, soaking through his robe, so that he couldn't speak, so he could only gesture for everyone to retreat first, leaving only Taiyun alone. ”

After listening to Huangfu Yuxiu, her mind was complicated and she didn't know what to say.

Tong Zi said: "This is Song Zheng's last public appearance, after that, occasional news came, all of which were relayed by Taiyun, sometimes saying that Song Zheng was unconscious, sometimes saying that Song Zheng's injury was better, and sometimes saying that Song Zheng's life was hanging by a thread, and they were disturbed, I don't know whether it was true or false, in this process, Taiyun gradually took over the power from Song Zheng and became the new master of the Daoless Sect, as for Song Taiyun becoming a holy monarch, it was a matter after Song Zheng completely disappeared. ”
