65. What is the foundation of righteousness?
He said: "If Chu Xiaoling is helpless against the rebels, then this matter is not trivial, and if Chu Xiaoling colludes with the rebels, it will be even more terrible news." ”
Ji Jie said proudly: "This Chu Xiaoling has always been ambitious, and the sect master is not ignorant, and I have long wanted to teach him a lesson." ”
Pan Xuan sighed: "Chu Xiaoling's martial arts have improved by leaps and bounds in recent years, and with the help of the Tai family, it is really quite tricky..."
Ji Jie said: "The city lord can borrow my Zhu Xuantang's master, plus my Demon Dragon Sect general, whether it is the battlefield or assassination, I have a great chance of winning." ”
Canghu knew that Zhu Xuantang was a good hand at collecting in secret, and those who entered the hall were deeply cultivated, all of them reached the ghost official class, and they were armed with strange treasures, although they rarely made shots, but they never lost the time, some time ago, Pan Xuan had informed Canghu of Zhu Xuantang's code and the place where he was hiding, and he had also introduced the important people.
At this time, he saw the Lang Fan among the abandoned people walking into the field, standing side by side with Jijie, and said in the Qing dialect: "Lord of the city, I want to make meritorious service for you and repay your kindness." ”
Jijie and Lang Fan are not familiar with each other, but they have never been on good terms with the Ghost Tiger Sect, and although they see this tiger-headed young man with fluffy hair and docile appearance, they can't help but be wary.
Pan Xuan replied: "Lang Fan, your people have just settled down, and as the first warrior, you must not leave now. ”
Lang Fan said: "Grandpa Yuan Ba and Grandma Prophet are here, so they don't care about anything. ”
Pan Xuan shook his head, and Lang Fan was a little frustrated, but he still obediently retreated.
Canghu looked at the vigorous and passionate cage fan, and suddenly remembered his brave and aggressive appearance back then, and sighed with emotion: "If I really become the lord of the city, I don't know when and what month, can I return to the battlefield and risk my life to fight the enemy?" This thought suddenly became strong and abnormal, and he couldn't help but recall the situation of drinking in the desert and staring at the starry sky.
He seemed to smell the breath of the desert in his nose, the tip of his tongue reminiscent of knife-like liquor, the wind swept the yellow sand, mixed with the smell of blood, the neighing of horses, the laughter of soldiers, the endless sea of sand, life and death became a joke before the fire after drinking.
Canghu gushed out resolute self-confidence, and he firmly believed that if he attacked, no matter how strong the enemy was, he would never be defeated. That self-confidence is no longer the arrogance of the youth when he didn't know the height of the sky, but the self-esteem born of suffering and perseverance, he knows that even if he is alone, goes deep into the tiger's den in Longtan, and encounters a major setback, he has a way to reverse the situation and regain his sight.
This may be the last hearty, free-spirited war of my life.
The fox's back was cold, every pore seemed to be opened, and immediately the blood surged into his heart, his limbs were full of strength, and he said loudly: "Uncle, nephew, please fight." ”
The ministers were speechless for a moment, and Jijie looked at the fox and said, "You want to go with me?"
Canghu said: "No, my nephew is willing to go alone, without the help of the rest of the ghost heads." ”
Ji Xianguang was stern, turned his tall body, faced Canghu, and said: "It's useless for you to have military merits, how much importance does the sect master take you, you are a treasure in the city, how can you easily take risks?"
Canghu kowtowed to the ground and said, "Master, do you remember the wine you drank in the desert?"
Pan Xuan laughed and said, "How many centaurs do you want?"
Canghu said: "I don't need soldiers and horses in the city, I will go to Mingyue City, meet with the head of the Chu ghost, and act when I see the opportunity." There are also tens of thousands of defenders in Mingyue City, and if they listen to orders, they must be enough. ”
What if you don't listen to the order? Then naturally you should settle accounts with Chu Xiaoling.
Thinking about the wonders of the Killing Corpse Sea Sword, he nodded and said, "I'll wait for you for a month, and if you don't return after a month, I'll go to the battlefield to capture you." ”
Canghu said happily: "Yes, thank you Master, the apprentice will return as soon as possible." "Stand up straight.
Jijie pondered for a moment and said, "Boy, have a few moves with me!" As he spoke, he struck straight at him, and the internal force of this punch was strong, as if the embankment had collapsed.
Canghu used his palm as a knife and slashed towards the fist wind, snorting the ground, and the internal strength of the two turned into a circle, rapidly expanding outward, but Canghu raised his left hand, and a wall of demonic sound qi rose on all sides, retracting the fluctuation.
Jijie's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "I haven't seen you in just a few months, how can you kid practice such magical skills?" Before the expedition to the desert, Canghu's martial arts were still far inferior to Jijie, but at this moment, his cultivation has increased tenfold, and Jijie can no longer catch up with Canghu's skills.
Canghu smiled easily and replied, "The head of the ghost is praised." ”
Ji Jie said: "I'm not a false praise, you don't have to be too humble, I am twice as strong as my martial arts at the moment, and I may not be able to beat you." I didn't understand that the city lord chose you to be in charge, but now I know that it makes sense. ”
Canghu breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered to retreat from the court, and the ministers left one after another. The fox seemed to be a little worried when he saw it, so he followed.
The two walked out of the main hall and came to the Imperial Garden, which was vast and wide, like a forest, and was a superb view in the Yellow Mountain Range, which was preserved intact.
Canghu thought to himself: "Although he is the lord of the city, his status is not inferior to that of the emperor of Daguan Kingdom, this palace and this garden are not extravagant, if it were not for his wife spending his time to build and expand, this place would be considered shabby." ”
Pan Xuan finally spoke: "In the past ten years, there have been endless masters in the world, not to mention ghost officials and retreats, even the strong people who are ghost heads and cloud breakers have emerged one by one, which is so annoying. ”
Canghu asked, "Uncle, isn't this the way of the world originally?"
Pan Xuan shook his head and said: "More than thirty years ago, there were ten thousand ghosts and ten thousand immortals, each with six masters, a total of twelve people, among which the golden cicada, Zhenghu, Bodhi, and cicada were the most popular, but they were only comparable to you now, and the rest were similar to Jijie and Chu Xiaoling. In addition to these twelve people, there are scattered and strong people, but they are by no means like you are singing and I am on stage like now. ”
Canghu said: "Is my uncle talking about me?"
Pan Xuan sighed: "You, Lang Xie, Lang Jun, Lang Fan, Yuan Ba, Chu Xiaoling, Ji Jie, Guo Xuanao, Dong Caiying.... They have all crossed the boundary of breaking the clouds, and the king Linchen and Qing Slash have also come to the top, and their martial arts have shown signs. ”
Canghu knew that this was indeed the case, and asked, "Is Uncle worried about this?"
Looking at the night, his eyes were deep, and he said: "This is the time of troubled times, the autumn of survival. The inspiration of this heaven and earth has been in crisis, so more and more people have been given inspiration and great magical powers. ”
Canghu groaned and said, "Black Snake, Hades?"
"Hades doesn't make me despair, it's the black snake that's really terrifying. ”
Canghu said: "Uncle said that there is a spirit in this heaven and earth, and it blesses us people, doesn't it want us to protect this world and resist the black snake?"
"No one has ever understood the true meaning of the Heavenly Dao, maybe it just wants you to have the ability to protect yourself." But how mediocre and stubborn are the people of this world? God has given them the grace of God, but they only say that it is their own merits, so they take up swords and torches one by one, and take advantage of this opportunity to make a profit from it. The rebels, the Daguan Kingdom, the Green Barbarians, and the Dragon Blood Kingdom are actually stupid like brutes. ”
His tone was a little agitated, but soon his breathing eased and he was as calm as ever.
Canghu thought to himself, "Then what if we are involved in the last city? Could it be that when the enemy is attacking, we don't use this divine grace to resist and kill the enemy?"
Pan Xuan said: "You can rest assured, once this trip is gone, I will not follow you again." It's just that you can't underestimate the enemy, and it's hard to predict that among the enemies, there may be people who have an epiphany and become extraordinary. ”
Canghu's heart sank, remembering the blind optimism when he was crusading against the Eye of the Beast at that time, and he couldn't help but feel deeply cautious. Pan Xuan said a few more words to him, and the fox said goodbye.
He returned to his wife and concubine and told him about the journey, and the two were frightened and persuaded him to stay in unison, but Canghu had made up his mind, and it took a lot of effort to persuade the two to put away crying.
His eyes stayed on Feng Mingyan's round belly, and he couldn't help smiling, and remembered that he couldn't make Man'er pregnant again in this life, so he felt guilty, and secretly thought: "That snow road chief's spell is so evil, if you don't ask her, you should avoid it." I heard that the Emperor of Guanguo, Lang Shitian, was also soaked in the black blood pool, but he was cured by the elixir of his mother-in-law, and he could also raise children, why don't I go and beg her?"
He was scheduled to set out alone in three days, and there was still plenty of time, so he went to visit his father-in-law's house the next day, and inquired about the enemy's details by the way. Mr. Wu hosted a banquet to entertain him, and said: "That Chu Xiaoling is indeed a major suspect, it is rumored that when Kunshan Town was lost, someone saw him appear in the town and leave from the enemy formation. But my spy wasn't sure of the news. ”
Canghu became worried, and thought: "I heard that this Chu Xiaoling is good at the technique of disguise change, and what the secret agent said is probably not reliable. ”
He had dealt with Chu Xiaoling before, but this person had an arrogant temper and was disrespectful to Pan Xuan, so Canghu deliberately distanced himself. He always felt that this Chu Xiaoling's words and deeds were too feminine, even worse than Zhi Qing, and he treated Pan Xuan, and there was some squeamishness in his expression.
Why is this person like this? Canghu has always been reluctant to think deeply. But now that I am exploring in my mind, I can't help but think of Qing Chop's crying to him.
Qing Shu said: Pan Xuan had abused him, occupied him, destroyed his body and mind, and made him worse than death. He was just a young child.
Could it be that this Chu Xiaoling has also been bullied, bullied, and guilty of him, so he has been repeatedly indulged, and Chu Xiaoling has been humiliated, so he has the intention of rebelling now?
How can we confuse good feelings for ourselves, but how can we confuse good and evil?
The fox is worried, drinking a cup of wine, borrowing wine to eliminate sorrow, the stronger the sorrow, the lighter the wine, flat and tasteless.
He was no longer drunk, and he couldn't relieve his sorrows, until late at night, he politely refused Mr. Wu to send someone to see him off, and said goodbye and went out alone.
Passing by a dark alley, suddenly a person rushed out of it, pounced on the fox, the fox's fingers popped out of the finger force, the internal force was like a snake, the person was entangled, the person "wow" sounded, prostrate on the ground, raised his head and stared at the fox, his face was full of blood, and his breath was weak.
Canghu recognized him as the prince Langbao who had come here to take refuge in the Great View Kingdom, he had already been seriously injured, and for some reason, he still had a breath of air.
Canghu was frightened and hurriedly injected internal force into this person's god hiding hole. With Canghu's internal strength at the moment, if he saves people with Xuangong, no matter how seriously injured, as long as his internal strength is not withdrawn, this person will definitely die. But now he is trying his best to save Lang Bao, the internal force into the body, like a mud cow into the sea, all useless, the strange technique of the person who started it, the strange skill, is unfathomable, terrifying and terrifying.
Lang Bao grabbed the collar of the blue fox, kept vomiting blood, and said with great difficulty: "Qing Chop was... I was captured by Wu Qi, and he beat me like this. ”
