Chapter 437

Amidst Liu Bingzhou's shouts, the river was surging, and within the waves, a cloud of black air squirmed out of the water.

The water level rose steadily, gradually submerging the golden shield.

Amidst the sound of 'crashing' water, everyone watched in horror as the water level rapidly rose to about half a foot high. The shield suddenly changed color because of the heavy pressure or the influence of the dark evil spirit at the bottom of the water. Much dimmer.

Once this shield is broken, these water flows may completely engulf the entire city of God in an instant!

At this time, no one in Shendu City dared to speak out.

Among the ruins of the Yao family, Yao Hui and Yao Ruoyun supported Liu Shi to get up, and everyone gathered in one place.

Mrs. Liu didn't dare to look at the face of her eldest daughter, and when her eyes fell on Yao Shouning, who was being held in the arms of the eldest princess, her heart suddenly returned to the original place.

Yao Shouning hadn't noticed her mother's waking up and coming, all her attention was on Liu Bingzhou's body, tears flowed again and again.

The scene in the realm of foresight still happened. Although she had already glimpsed Liu Bingzhou's ending, when she really saw her grandfather decide to die in the city, she still felt unspeakably uncomfortable.

She desperately wanted to perceive Liu Bingzhou's future again, but she was in a state of confusion at this moment, and she had no sense of future predictions at all.

'Wow—'

The water was rippling, and the black air gradually rose.

Through the shield and the halo at the bottom of the water, all the people in Shendu City can see the black air coming from far away, approaching from the direction of the city.

"Your Majesty, please stand back!"

Liu Bingzhou shouted again.

I saw that the black energy not only did not recede, but was moving forward slowly.

When they got closer, everyone saw a tall 'black shadow' surrounded by the black air.

The 'black shadow' was surrounded by black mist, and it was impossible to see its true face. These black evil spirits were worn on 'him' like armor. As 'him' walked around, the water turned into waves and began to hit the shield. cover.

'Wow-boom! '

Every time there was an impact, Liu Bingzhou felt as if he was hit by a thousand weights, and his body shook heavily.

But behind him, he entrusted the expectations of the people of Shendu City, so he did not lose the wind for the time being.

"The 'River God' is here!"

Subconsciously, Zhu Hengrui grasped Yao Shouning's hand tightly and said something softly.

"Yeah." Yao Shouning clenched his lower lip and glanced at his sister, only to see Yao Wanning's face was pale, looking in the direction of the 'River God' without making a sound.

Lu Zhi and Lu Wuji were standing next to the eldest princess and Yao Shouning respectively. Seeing that the situation was not going well, Zhou Rongying hurriedly said:

"Should we put everyone in a high place first?"

The 'River God' is no less threatening than the Fox King.

If it is said that when the fox king appeared in the world, everyone felt that the evil spirit was soaring to the sky and that a catastrophe was imminent, then the appearance of the 'river god' at this time made people feel panic from the bottom of their hearts.

The shadow of death shrouded everyone's heart, cold air rose from the soles of their feet, and everyone shivered at the same time.

Although Zhou Rongying didn't say it clearly, everyone still understood the worry in his words, he was worried that Liu Bingzhou's shield might not last long.

Once the shield is broken, the river will pour in, and the low-lying places will be submerged in an instant.

It is better to take this opportunity to resettle the people first and move them to a higher place, so as not to waste the precious opportunity that Liu Bingzhou earned with his life.

"Uncle Master is right."

Lu Wuji said:

"Nowadays, the high terrain in the city should only be the inner city of the palace."

After he finished speaking, he raised his head and glanced at the sky.

At this time, most of the buildings in Shendu City have collapsed. Although there are still a few houses that have not collapsed, most of them are not as high as the inner city because of the ritual system.

Now the only place that has not been 'swallowed' by the height of the river is the Imperial Palace in the inner city, but that is the emperor's residence.

"I can't control that much anymore, let's settle down first."

Zhu Hengrui nodded.

She forcibly broke through the city gate tonight. In Emperor Shenqi's heart, I'm afraid she was already a traitor. In addition, she wanted to kill the king, but Emperor Shenqi had a thick face and a dark heart, so he asked the Fox King for help. Just escaped.

"Our troops are divided into two groups. I will send someone to Gu Huanzhi first and ask him to arrange people to resettle the people. Brother Ji, you will lead people to move the people in in batches."

Having said that, Zhu Hengrui looked at Yao Shouning:
"Shou Ning, you—"

"Princess, don't worry."

Although Yao Shouning said he was worried about his grandfather's safety, he also knew the priorities.

She suppressed the sadness in her heart, and said to the eldest princess:
"I'm worried about my grandfather, I'm going to stay here for the time being, you guys go first, if in the future—"

When she said this, tears welled up in her eyes:

"——If my grandfather can't stand it anymore, I will also look for you in the inner city depending on the situation."

Zhu Hengrui looked at the way she was holding back her grief with pity, and saw that she was obviously very sad, but she was also very sensible and considerate, and deliberately proposed that she would retreat later, obviously for the sake of peace of mind.

She nodded and responded:
"it is good."

As soon as the words fell, Lu Zhi also said:

"I'm by Shouning's side."

If he didn't say that, Zhu Hengrui would have told him so. Seeing his son speak at this moment, Zhu Hengrui said:
"You take good care of Shouning."

"I will." Lu Zhi replied.

Seeing that Lu Wuji and his wife had already moved, Xu Xiangyi felt relieved, then looked at Yao Hui and the others, and when he saw Liu Shi being supported by him, his eyes couldn't help but brighten up:
"Mrs. Yao is awake."

When he said this, Yao Shouning woke up with a start, turned his head and saw Liu Shi, who had been in a coma for a long time, barely standing by her husband and son, staring at her with affection.

Her eyes became hot, and she immediately yelled:

"mother!"

"It's fine—it's fine——" Liu Shi also had tears in his eyes, repeating these words over and over again.

When Yao Shouning saw his mother, there were many things in his heart that he wanted to say to her, but when the words came to his lips, they turned into:
"Mother, grandfather, he..."

"I saw."

Liu shi held back her tears and responded.

The mother and daughter wept silently, and Yao Hui silently stroked his wife's back.

At this time Xu Xiangyi said:
"It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. Since we are going to leave, in my opinion, it is better for Commander Yao to take his family and leave first."

Liu Shi just woke up from a serious injury. Although her body seems to be healed from the injuries on the surface, after all, her body has been lying down for several months, and her blood vessels are blocked. It is difficult to stand at this moment, and it is useless to stay here. It's just a distraction, it's better to withdraw first.

Yao Hui was not an ignorant person, so he subconsciously lowered his head to look at his wife when he heard the words.

Liu Shi knew that she couldn't help, and insisting on not leaving would only add to the confusion, so she agreed.

After she nodded, Yao Hui heaved a sigh of relief, nodded too, and said:

"Later Ruoyun and your Uncle Zheng will take your mother and family to leave first. I see that there are many people in the neighborhood who are panicked and helpless at this time." Flies need someone to lead to find the backbone.

Speaking of this, Yao Hui glanced at Liu Shi with some guilt:
"I want to gather the survivors from the neighborhood and see if I can form them into a team to search for the survivors nearby before entering the inner city."

His official career was not going well in the past, but he has never said anything when working as an official.

Mrs. Liu understands her husband's character, and has no objection to this, but only advises:
"Be careful yourself."

Since she was injured, Yao Hui hadn't been told to do things like this for a long time, and he said happily after hearing the words:

"I see."

The eldest princess also smiled:

"It couldn't be better."

After everyone assigned their respective tasks, when Yao Ruojun summoned his family, he ran into a wall at Yao Wanning's place.

"I do not go!"

Yao Wanning hugged her belly and shook her head:
"I'm not going anywhere. I will stay here with my child. I will wait for 'him' to come over and see what 'he' can do to me."

Her demeanor was firm and her tone was very calm. When she was speaking, she even found an unbroken beam and sat on it:
"Miaozhen left with my parents, and I stayed here with Shouning."

She made up her mind, obviously Yao Ruoyun could not persuade her.

Yao Ruoyun suddenly showed a look of embarrassment, and subconsciously looked at Liu Shi.

The eldest princess and the others looked at each other, feeling a little headache.

Yao Wanning is about to give birth, and her safety should be the top priority, but she insists on not leaving at this time. With her status, who can persuade her?

Lu Zhi turned to look at Zhu Shizhen, Zhu Shizhen showed a troubled look.

"Wanning—"

He yelled, Yao Wanning didn't look at him, but hugged her stomach:

"As I said, no one will persuade me to leave. I will stay with Shouning."

Liu Shi bit her lip.

This eldest daughter has always been her heart and soul, but now seeing Yao Wanning's stubbornness and the stalemate, she couldn't help feeling sad.

She got into a dead end in her thoughts, and couldn't help thinking: Is Wanning blaming me?Or is it because the Taoist priest forced me to choose, and I subconsciously chose Shouning to live, so I was doomed to die here?

When she thought of this, her heart ached and she cried out in a sobbing voice:

"Wanning—"

"Mother." Liu Shi shouted like this, coupled with her pleading and guilty eyes, the coldness in Yao Wanning's eyes gradually disintegrated, and she sighed:
"I don't blame you, don't think so much."

Knowing mother Mo Ruonu, especially Yao Wanning who suffered from many illnesses since she was a child, has a very keen mind. When she saw Liu's expression at this time, she could tell what was going on in her heart.

"I made such a choice, not willfully, nor out of puff..."

As Yao Wanning spoke, tears welled up in her eyes:
"It's because," she choked for a moment, took a few deep breaths before looking up at her mother again:
"I'm pregnant now, and I have 'his' flesh and blood, but my husband is going to destroy the capital of God, and my grandfather is about to die in order to save the people..."

On the one hand is the husband, on the other is the elder relatives, "Where can I go?"

Yao Wanning asked with tears in her eyes, and immediately stopped Liu's question.

When Yao Shouning heard his sister's words, he immediately stopped his thoughts of persuading her.

Only now did she realize that it was not she who was hurt the most by her grandfather's accident, but Yao Wanning who was caught in the middle.

"It's fine if my sister doesn't leave." She suddenly spoke up.

Liu Shi was stunned for a moment:

"But—" She was a little embarrassed, seeing Yao Wanning's expression was a little strange, as if she was a little guilty, guilty, mixed with pain.

Strange, Liu Shi always loves her sister the most, and her relationship with her sister has always been close. She even almost died at the hands of the demon king because of Yao Wanning, but now she just woke up, why is there a strange atmosphere between her and her sister?

Yao Shouning had a keen mind and sensed that the atmosphere between the two was not right, but this was not the time to ask these things in detail, so she temporarily suppressed the question in her heart, and added:
"I once foresaw the scene of the 'River God' in this world. At that time, my sister was also here. I can't escape what is destined."

After speaking, he added:
"Besides, my son and I are here, and Taizu and the others are also here. They will take good care of my sister, and Fifth Brother Meng will also help me." After she finished speaking, she turned to look at Meng Songyun:
"Fifth brother, are you right?"

Meng Songyun smiled slightly:
"You've said it all, what else can I say? I just hope that Shouning can help me then."

When he said this, Shizi immediately became alert and was about to speak, but Yao Shouning said indifferently:

"Naturally! You and I are friends."

Meng Songyun originally said such words to counter her, but she did not expect her to say such words.

He always felt that Yao Shouning seemed to be different from before after experiencing life and death, as if every life and death would make her grow and make her go further.

"—Yes." He hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Zhu Shizhen saw clearly from the side, couldn't help smiling, and then said:
"It's fine for Wanning to stay."

"You are..." Seeing him talking, Liu Shi subconsciously turned her head to look at him, the more she looked at him, the more she felt familiar.

She still didn't know who Zhu Shizhen was, and she didn't know that after she was injured and passed out that day, Yao Shouning went to Yingtian Bookstore and brought back a wisp of Zhu Shizhen's soul as a token.

After she asked at this moment, Yao Hui and Zhu Hengrui subconsciously looked at Yao Wanning, but Yao Wanning stopped talking and did not respond to Liu Shi's words.

"I--"

Zhu Shizhen showed a rare look of embarrassment, touched the tip of his nose, then looked at Yao Shouning, and said in a low voice:
"I'm……"

"Mother." Yao Shouning quickly stood up and took his mother's hand, whispering in her ear:

"He is my guest and my sister's friend."

Zhu Shizhen's status is special, but this is not the time to explain in detail to Liu Shi.

She fell into a coma for a long time, and her memory was still on the day when Yao Wanning was lured by the "River God" to become pregnant. If she knew that the person in front of her was the predecessor of the "River God", she would not feel at ease letting Yao Wanning stay with him.

It's just that Yao Shouning's words made Liu's heart more vigilant.

Yao Wanning has been ill for many years, and she can count on one hand the people she has known. Liu Shi knows who she knows, how could the person in front of her be her friend?

She was about to speak again, Zhu Hengrui quickly smoothed things over:
"How to deal with the 'River God' disaster, do you have a solution?"

Zhu Shizhen has experienced countless ups and downs in his life. He came from an ordinary family. He established Daqing with his own strength, killed evil spirits, and trapped the Fox King, but he felt uncomfortable when facing Liu's scrutiny.

At this time, Zhu Hengrui opened his mouth and rescued him in a disguised form, and he unconsciously breathed a sigh of relief:

"There is a way."

Speaking of business, even though there are thousands of doubts in Liu's heart, she can only suppress it.

Lu Wuji understood his wife's intentions, and quickly winked at Yao Ruoyun, and everyone greeted each other and prepared to leave first.

Besides the Liu family, Su Miaozhen should not stay here anymore.

The karma between her and the Fox King is over, and the disaster of the "River God" is approaching, so it is meaningless for her to stay.

After everyone in the Yao family left one by one, Zhu Shizhen said:

"After learning about the crisis of the 'River God', I discussed with my third brother, Mr. Xu, to resolve the crisis of the 'River God'."

The "River God" was transformed from Zhu Shizhen's body after his death. Due to emotion and reason, Zhu Shizhen couldn't stand by and watch the disaster.

Speaking of business, Yao Wanning also turned her head and listened quietly.

It just so happened that Zhu Shizhen was also looking at her at this time, and the two looked at each other, Yao Wanning was taken aback for a moment, then lowered her head.

"..." Zhu Shizhen sighed secretly, and said again:

"Theoretically speaking, the 'River God' was transformed from my body, that is to say, I only have a physical body, but no spiritual consciousness."

It is precisely because the "River God" acts on instinct that he absorbs evil spirits and causes disasters wherever he goes.

"And this time I came here at the call of Shouning, and it was the soul body that came."

When he said this, Yao Shouning immediately understood what he meant, and his eyes lit up:
"You mean to say that you want to enter the body of the 'River God' and control this body?"

Zhu Shizhen nodded:
"Yes."

He added:
"For example, at this time, the body of the 'River God' is like a carriage, but it has lost control of the driver, and it is very dangerous. So what I have to do at this time is to drive this car again and make it Get back on track."

When he said this, everyone immediately understood his intention.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and Yao Wanning suddenly asked:
"Are you in danger?"

700 years since Zhu Shizhen's spirit descended, this was the first conversation between the two. Zhu Shizhen was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and was about to speak when Yao Wanning said again:
"Do not lie to me."

His eyes softened a little, and he said in a gentle voice:
"I won't lie to you. If I say there is no danger, it must be a lie. The biggest danger is that the body of the 'River God' rejects me, and I cannot 'go in'."

Zhu Shizhen's words made everyone's hearts sink when they heard him say that there was a way. Yao Wanning pursed her lips, remained silent for a while, and asked again in a low voice:

"What if you 'got in'?"

She is a little anxious:
"What happens after that?"

"If the action goes well, I 'enter the body of the river god' and control 'him', I will bring my body back to the bottom of the river, seal myself, and enter a deep sleep."

"Fourth!"

Gu Jing who was at the side was shocked when he heard this:
"Wouldn't this split a sliver of your soul?"

"Hahaha." Hearing this, Zhu Shizhen let out a hearty laugh:

"Second brother, how do you say such a thing?"

Back then, the brothers failed to kill the Fox King, and they always felt uneasy about leaving the disaster to future generations. Therefore, 700 years ago, Gu Jing made preparations when he was alive, split a soul, and left it to future generations. , That's why the four brothers reunited again today.

"You were able to do it for the sake of killing the Fox King and for future generations, why can't I do it?"

"But—but you are a man of destiny, and you should have an endless life—" Gu Jing felt a little regretful, "You have made great achievements in killing monsters, and you have established the Daqing Dynasty to protect the world. You have supreme achievements and a high reputation among the people. Enshrined by later generations, he should have become a god—”

Meng Songyun also nodded, feeling a little strange about Zhu Shizhen's death that year.

"I don't know whether the fairy tale is true or not, it's just a rumor." Zhu Shizhen shook his head and said lightly:
"What's more, my karma and luck have already been divided by me—"

Part of his longevity and achievements were left to Yao Wanning.

Meng Songyun's divination skills are unparalleled in the world, just as he asserted, Liu Shi and Yao Hui only have the blessing of having a son and a daughter to die in their lives.

Yao Wanning should have been doomed to die early. At the moment when Liu was bewitched by evil spirits and borrowed water from the Bailing River, the "River God" sent him the "betrothal gift" that Zhu Shizhen had prepared 700 years ago. It was him who divided himself. Gongguo and Shouyuan continued the life of his future wife.

At this moment, Yao Shouning understood the meaning of Zhu Shizhen's words. She looked at her sister, but saw Yao Wanning's face was dazed, as if she also understood what Zhu Shizhen meant at this time, showing a look of bewilderment.

Perhaps in Yao Wanning's heart, she has always regarded the 'River God' and the Taizu Zhu Shizhen 700 years ago as two people, but at this moment she vaguely feels that something is not quite right.

Yao Shouning sensed the complexity of his sister's state of mind, and he couldn't help but secretly sighed, and then another doubt arose in his heart: It seems that the Taizu seemed to know that he would save his sister in the future, but how did he know the marriage between him and his sister in the future? , and make arrangements in advance?
When she was a little puzzled, Zhu Shizhen changed the subject again:
"All in all, I have no relationship with the gods. With my current cultivation, the impact of losing this ray of soul is not very big. It is still enough for me to live for a few more years, accompany my wife, guard my son's growth, and take over Daqing smoothly in the future."

"I have already felt some sensations." Meng Songyun on the side suddenly said:
"It's just an opportunity missing, but this opportunity is coming soon." After he finished speaking, he pointedly glanced at Yao Shouning.

Lu Zhi had been listening to them all the time, but when Meng Songyun said this, it aroused his vigilance. He subconsciously opened his arms to protect Yao Shouning in his arms, and stared at Meng Songyun with an unhappy expression.

Meng Songyun hummed lightly, don't start, don't care like him.

"That's good." Zhu Shizhen smiled: "Among my brothers, if Xiao Wu can have this fairy fate, that would be great."

Zhang Fuchen nodded when he heard the words, Gu Jing looked indifferent.

Meng Songyun smiled on the surface, but there was no wavering in his heart.

For some reason, he suddenly turned his head to look at Yao Shouning, and suddenly called her with his spiritual sense:
"Shou Ning."

"Ah?" Yao Shouning instinctively turned his head when he heard someone calling him.

Seeing her turn her head to look around, Lu Zhi couldn't help asking with concern:
"Shouning, what's wrong?"

"It's me." Meng Songyun said again.

This time, Yao Shouning finally recognized his voice.

The two had settled karma that day, and communicated with spiritual consciousness, but at this moment they were clearly standing together, why did Meng Songyun call her with spiritual consciousness again?

As soon as Yao Shouning thought about it, he understood what he was thinking: maybe there were some things he didn't want to say to others, and he just wanted to communicate with himself in private.

When she thought of this, she shook her head to Shizi: "It's okay."

The crown prince nodded without doubting him, and didn't ask any more questions.

Meng Songyun said:

"Shouning, why do you think the world is so hypocritical?"

What he said was thoughtless, but Yao Shouning guessed what was in his mind right away:

"Do you think what Taizu and Zhang Zuzu said was insincere?"

Meng Songyun smiled.

It's comfortable to talk to her, she has a delicate mind, and when he said something casually, she immediately understood his intention.

She neither criticizes nor agrees with his words, but she can provide him with ideas from another angle.

"Back then, when we were brothers, we knelt down and swore to each other. We said that we don't want to be born in the same year, the same month and the same day, but we want to die in the same year, the same month and the same day." Meng Songyun recalled the scene at that time, his eyes were so calm that they were almost indifferent.

"In fact, Zhu Shizhen died first, and Zhang Fuchen fell later. Gu Jing did not follow the original agreement, but left Daqing Shendu during the Tianyuan period, established Shenwumen, and finally died in Shenwumen, but Xu Zhao did not know whereabouts. "

He spoke softly about the situation back then:
"And I don't need to say, I didn't die from the beginning to the end, and I witnessed the end of this oath with my own eyes." After speaking, he laughed softly for a while.

At the end he said:

"It can be seen that the vows of human beings are useless. Perhaps the vows at that time were just a useless self-impression."

In the year of the Great War, the crisis was imminent, but Meng Songyun's mentality seemed to have a serious problem.

Yao Shouning looked up at his future grandfather who was resisting the 'River God' in the air, heaved a long sigh in his heart, and decided to appease Meng Songyun first.

She had a premonition that Meng Songyun's condition was very dangerous at this time. Once he lost control, the situation would be very serious. On the contrary, if his condition was stable, it would be of great help to her.

"Fifth brother, are you very angry?" She cut through the mess quickly, determined to use her own feelings to dominate her conversation with Meng Songyun.

She has experienced many life and death, and her mood has been improving, and now she has strong predictive and sensing powers.

Although Meng Songyun was a heartbroken person and practiced the way of ruthlessness, he should be in a peaceful state of mind, but Yao Shouning could sense extreme anger from his seemingly calm appearance.

"Angry? No, no, no——" Meng Songyun subconsciously shook his head. Just as he was about to explain, Yao Shouning said:
"Fifth Brother, do you know? The more I progress in my realm now, the more I can realize something."

As a member of the Bianji family, sometimes Yao Shouning's language comprehension is a valuable insight for practice. When Meng Songyun heard her talk like this, he immediately listened to her:

"I think language is God's best gift to mankind. Sometimes people's words and deeds will reveal a lot of things, as long as you are willing to feel it with your heart."

Meng Songyun was taken aback for a moment, then thoughtful.

"I know that you can't die if you cut out your heart, and you have cultivated the path of ruthlessness. Logically speaking, you should fall into the state of heartlessness and ruthlessness."

He nodded and responded:

"good."

"Even if you practice against the sky and claim to be a demigod, you still can't escape the category of 'human'."

"I—" Meng Songyun was about to argue when she heard her conclusion, but Yao Shouning didn't give him a chance:

"I know what you want to say."

Her attitude gradually became tough, and Meng Songyun vaguely felt that in the interaction with her, his status was exchanged, the initiative gradually fell into her hands, and he had a faint feeling of being restrained by her.

But he didn't dislike this feeling, so he didn't make a sound, and Yao Shouning continued to say:

"You want to say that since hundreds of years ago, you have cut off all emotions and desires. After all, many years ago, you used the alias Meng Qingfeng to confuse Emperor Yong'an, steal the remains of Taizu, and make Emperor Shenqi stay away from government affairs all these years. An example of your indifference, isn't it?"

She had a keen mind, as if she had peeked into the depths of Meng Songyun's heart, and said everything he wanted to refute.

But for some reason, Meng Songyun thought this way in his heart, but when he heard her say this, he felt a little awkward.

"That's right..." He nodded and added:
"It's true that I did these things, but whether it's Emperor Yong'an or Emperor Shenqi, they are selfish, vicious, mean and ungrateful. I'm just adding fuel to the flames..."

Yao Shouning smiled sweetly:
"Yes, if they are kind-hearted and not tempted by foreign objects, it will be difficult for you to start."

"Yes—" Meng Songyun nodded as a matter of course, and then saw Yao Shouning's gaze, which was gentle and tolerant:

"Shouning, you..."

"Fifth Brother, look, you still care about what others think, and you're not as free and easy as you imagined." Yao Shouning pursed his lips and smiled.

Meng Songyun nodded in a daze, and murmured:
"Yes, I do still care about your opinion, why?"

"It shouldn't be. I slaughtered Qingyun Temple. The fox king used illusions to confuse me several times that day, but it couldn't make my heart fluctuate. But at this time, I really care about your opinion. Why?" He was puzzled.

"You and I used to be bound by cause and effect. Whether you admit it or not, you saved me twice when I was in trouble. Even though it was a karma transaction, in my heart, we are still friends. Do you admit it?" Yao Shouning asked him .

"I..." Meng Songyun frowned and didn't answer.

"If you admit that we are friends, then what's wrong with you caring about my opinion?" Yao Shouning asked again.

Meng Songyun did not speak.

"Back to the original topic, if you still have something to worry about, then you said that you have achieved success in training, but the Taizu's reaction is not as you expected, and you are angry because of this. This is just a reasonable thing."

"You feel that you did not die in the same year, the same month, and on the same day as the oath said, but you went your separate ways. Now that you mention cultivation, the Taizu and others are not angry and criticizing, but praise your cultivation base, so You're upset and angry, aren't you?"

Meng Songyun's eyes gradually brightened:

"Correct."

"What do you want them to do?" Yao Shouning asked.

"I hope they scold me." He gradually understood his intentions:
"Among the brothers, I was the first to break the covenant—" As Yao Shouning said, language communication is the greatest gift from heaven to human beings. Through the brief conversation between the two, Meng Songyun also faintly discovered the thoughts hidden in his mind :

"Even I resent them. Back then when I cut out my heart and 'died', Zhu Shizhen and others did not walk with me according to the oath, but continued to drag out an existence!"

After he said this, he felt incredible.

"It's amazing that I still have hatred, Shouning." He gave a compliment, and then fell into doubt:
"But Shou Ning, I thought that after practicing the ruthless way, I no longer have the feeling of love, pity, joy, and happiness, but at this time I still retain hatred. Could it be that practicing the ruthless way only eliminates my positive feelings? emotions, while retaining negative feelings?"

Yao Shouning shook his head:
"Without love, how can there be hatred?"

Her words were astonishing, and to Meng Songyun, it was like a dose of strong medicine, which stunned him on the spot.

"Impossible——" he subconsciously retorted, "How could it be? The reunion of the four of us, I am not overjoyed, I hate them, there is no doubt about it, but how can I love my brothers?"

"I have to think about it -- I have to think about it, Shouning, don't lie to me --"

His expression was cloudy and cloudy, with vertical and horizontal black lines appearing on his face, his emotions seemed to be on the verge of breaking out.

Yao Shouning secretly screamed that something was wrong, thinking in his heart whether his words had stimulated him too much——

'boom! '

A loud noise came suddenly, and the entire city of God was shaken by gravity.

Yao Shouning didn't notice for a while, her body was swaying, if Shizi hadn't reached out to hold her at the critical moment, she might have fallen down long ago.

Yao Wanning almost fell to the ground, and it was Zhu Shizhen who held her by the waist at a critical moment and hugged her into his arms.

The people who were talking subconsciously turned their heads.

In just a short while, the river has risen further, submerging [-] to [-]% of the shield Liu Bingzhou summoned.

Under the night, the golden shield was only ten feet high and still emerged from the water.

Through the shields, everyone could see that the river was much higher than the city.

Under the bottom of the river, the shadow of the 'River God' is getting closer.

The sky, which was still twilight before, has become darker and darker at some point, as if the entire city of God has entered the night again, and everyone is facing the dark bottom of the water.

Looking out at a glance, the depths of the water are pitch black, and in this endless darkness, the approach of the 'River God' makes the real fear emerge in every survivor's heart.

'Wow--'

The water wave impulsively hit the shield.

With each blow, Liu Bingzhou's body shook heavily.

And his body was also gradually sinking under the trembling. With every part of Liu Bingzhou's body sinking, the entire Shendu City seemed to be sinking, and the water level gradually rose, slowly submerging the Kanding.

"what--"

Under the sway of fear, everyone screamed.

"Ah!" Yao Shouning couldn't help shouting, but she was not just because of fear, but because she saw Liu Bingzhou's figure falling.

"Grandfather!"

"Your Majesty, please step back!"

Liu Bingzhou yelled again in a hoarse voice, his strength was no longer enough, his long hair turned white in an instant, at this moment he was supported by a single will, and he did not fall.

As soon as his words fell, the will of the people in the capital burst out the final power, and a milky white halo gushed out of his body, and the power of that halo supported him to rise again.

Due to the burst of his strength, the originally dull shield suddenly expanded outwards and upwards, forcing the water waves to recede, and Liu Bingzhou forced the 'River God' to stop slowly.

'Wow—'

The waves surged silently.

In the light of the water, the 'River God' stopped moving forward.

The gigantic cocoon formed by the mass of entangled black air melted silently, and the black air was like a veil spreading from the bottom of the water, flowing in the waves, revealing the true content of the 'river god' inside.

Yao Wanning subconsciously probed to look, but couldn't find her husband's familiar aura from the terrifying and silent 'River God' in front of her.

I saw that the 'River God' was extremely tall at this time, and the black gas turned into a real armor, which was worn on 'him', making him stand there, which made people feel the shadow and fear of imminent death .

'He' seemed to sense the obstacles in front of him, and slowly raised his head.

While everyone was trembling with fear, the 'River God' opened his eyes.

Those are a pair of silver eyes, which are daunting. Those silver eyes are full of despair, darkness and death, like an endless abyss. The moment many people look at those eyes, their consciousness is like fall into hell.

"Ah! The river god is here!"

"We're going to die—"

"Mr. Liu can't fight—"

……

Under the influence of fear, many people's minds collapse instantly. Once their minds collapse, their beliefs are immediately affected.

Liu Bingzhou's body began to become unstable, and the blood burst out from his wound 'tick-tick', but the moment it gushed out, it turned into strength and stabilized in his shield.

"I sacrifice my life, I sacrifice my life—"

He is still resisting forcefully, but anyone with a discerning eye can see that he won't last long.

At this time, the 'River God' made a new move after stopping briefly.

'He' slowly raised his hand, this action caused the black air in the water to surge wildly, and then gathered towards the palm of 'him'.

'Crack! '

He seemed to have snapped his fingers, and the black air suddenly swarmed, chirping, and flocks began to flap their wings towards the shield.

'Boom!Boom!Boom! '

It doesn't matter that the nearby black air hits the shield light, the most terrifying thing is that there are endless birds and birds flying out of the dark water bottom.

The bird chirping sound of 'chirping gulu' was accompanied by the dense sound of flapping wings, the bottom of the water began to sway wildly, and waves came in rows——

"not good!"

Zhu Shizhen frowned and shouted.

At this moment, Zhang Fuchen said:

"My Confucianism has such a successor, it is really gratifying."

'well. ' He sighed a long time:
"I am delighted that in the future Confucianism can see that there will be many people who inherit the mantle of our Confucianism, but I am also lamented that the time for reunion is so short."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhu Shizhen, his gaze passed over Gu Jing, and then fell on Meng Songyun:
"This time, I'm going first."

There was something in his words, and Meng Songyun, who was extremely emotionally unstable because of Yao Shouning's words, was taken aback for a moment when he heard what he said:
"What do you mean?"

"Xiao Wu, I'm leaving." Zhang Fuchen didn't explain, but said with a smile.

Zhu Shizhen and Gu Jing showed reluctance and relief in their eyes. The brothers exchanged eyes for a while, and then they bowed their hands:

"Brother, go slowly!"

"Hahaha."

Zhang Fuchen laughed heartily, waved his hands at several people, then put his hands behind his back, turned to face Liu Bingzhou, and raised his legs to move forward.

Brilliant golden light emerged from his body, and every time he took a step forward, that figure became more and more transparent.

When he walked behind Liu Bingzhou, his figure had collapsed and turned into a heart again.

The Confucian saint's heart is pure and true, with the power of Zhang Fuchen's life.

"what--"

Seeing this scene, Yao Shouning folded his hands and covered his lips, his eyes widened suddenly, and he let out a sound of exclamation.

At this time, Liu Bingzhou was exhausted, and his five senses were lost. After sacrificing everything, he couldn't see the surrounding scene, couldn't hear the sound, and could only feel that his aura was gradually weakening, and his consciousness was on the verge of collapse. .

At the moment of death, he secretly sighed: Is it still not possible?
Where did the 'River God' go?How long can the shield that I bought with my life protect the city of God?

Can Shouning figure out a way to find a way out with Zhang Fuchen, Zhu Shizhen and others, and lead everyone to escape from this place?

There are too many unwillingness and regrets in his heart, but unfortunately his way can only go so far.

Just as Liu Bingzhou was waiting for the moment of death, an unusually warm feeling suddenly emerged from behind him—like a rare good weather in winter, he was lying on his stomach under the sun, and his whole body was extremely comfortable.

All pain, coldness and weakness were swept away.

Immediately afterwards, the lost five senses gradually returned, and the sound of wind and water resounded again. Yao Shouning's exclamation reached his ears, and at the same time, Zhang Fuchen's sigh:

"Pingzhou, I'll help you... You shouldn't let Confucian children face the enemy alone."

Mr. Zhang Fuchen?What does it mean?
When Liu Bingzhou was puzzled, suddenly there was a 'whoosh' sound, and something penetrated into his chest cavity from his back.

'Boom!Boom! '

A brand new heart drilled into the originally empty chest cavity.

The Confucian sage heart left by Zhang Fuchen took root the moment it fell into Liu Bingzhou's bloody chest.

The broken blood vessels are like a dead tree in spring, and they are reconnected one by one, and the infinite power accumulated in the heart is quickly transported to Liu Bingzhou's whole body along the repaired blood vessels.

His gradually withered body was nourished by strength and revived with vitality.

His bent and fragile back straightened up again, and the wrinkles on his face were smoothed out one by one.

The flesh and blood continued, and the big hole in the heart squirmed and closed.

……

And at the moment when Zhang Fuchen's heart merged with Liu Bingzhou's, Zhang Fuchen's aura completely disappeared from this world.

The generation of great Confucianists 700 years ago has truly 'died'.

Liu Bingzhou raised his head, and opened his eyes in a daze and shock.

The brilliance in his eyes flowed, and the endless righteousness filled his chest cavity. He subconsciously lowered his head and stroked his chest cavity. The wound there had disappeared without a trace, and it was flat.

And inside the chest cavity, a complete and powerful heart is beating vigorously at this moment.

"Mr. Zhang—" he murmured, and then tears filled his eyes:

"Teacher Zhang!"

But no one responded to his words, but with tears in his eyes, he seemed to see the silver-haired Zhang Fuchen waving at him, then with his hands behind his back, he walked slowly, and finally disappeared into the darkness.

……

And at this moment, the first wave of attacks from the 'River God' had arrived.

The crows and sparrows flying all over the sky swooped in, hitting the shield light with a 'bang bang', and finally the crows and sparrows shattered, turning into black air and wrapping around the shield light.

If it was before, with the strength of dying willows and boats, naturally they would not be able to resist this first wave of attacks.

But at this time, with the blessing of Zhang Fuchen's heart, he withstood the attacks of these birds.

"I will live up to your trust!"

Liu Bingzhou whispered with tears in his eyes.

Then he straightened his chest and slowly flew up, holding a pen in his hand and drawing with a pen:

"Your Majesty, please retreat!"

He still spoke the same way as before, but with less pleading and more confidence.

At this time, he swiped his pen to draw a circle, and a huge net was formed, he threw it out with a wave of his arms, trapping the body of the 'River God' in the net.

"Grandfather——" Yao Shouning was both excited and sad, and at the same time, he was happy that his grandfather survived the disaster.

She had a premonition that Liu Bingzhou's life and death had passed. The heart that Zhang Fuchen gave him before he left was a great kindness to Liu Bingzhou. It not only saved Liu Bingzhou's life, but also saved him from death. It contains what Zhang Fuchen has learned, felt, and realized throughout his life.

After passing through this catastrophe, his grandfather will go one step further in the future.

With tears in their eyes, Zhu Shizhen and Gu Jing watched Zhang Fuchen disappear bit by bit.

This time his departure was a real departure.

"Brother..."

Meng Songyun realized later, when he discovered that Zhang Fuchen had transformed into the heart of a Confucian sage again and penetrated into Liu Bingzhou's body, he still couldn't believe it.

It wasn't until Zhang Fuchen's aura disappeared that he instinctively raised his hand to calculate.

"Brother." He frowned and shouted again, trying to figure out Zhang Fuchen's life.

But a person is already dead, so what if his reckoning skills are unparalleled in the world?Going against the sky is not a wise move. Meng Songyun was backlashed by the force, bloodshot from his nose, eyes, and corners of his mouth.

"Little five!"

Seeing this scene, Zhu Shizhen hastily shouted:
"Don't speculate."

"I want to see where he's hiding—"

While the two brothers were talking, in mid-air, the battle between Liu Bingzhou and the 'River God' had already begun.

Liu Bingzhou drew a net, and the moment he threw it, the 'River God' was covered in the net.

"Bound!"

Liu Bingzhou shouted loudly and waved his hands.

The net was tightened immediately, and a golden light flashed in the net, binding the 'River God' and his evil spirit together.
