That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 560

Between the foothills of Meishan, there are two figures walking in the rain.

"I heard that you fought against that person?"

"It's barely a draw."

"What if it's a battle of life and death?"

"I will die, he will be seriously injured and dying, but he will survive in the end."

"Could it be impossible to burn jade and stone together?"

"That depends on luck. If the right time, location, and people are in harmony, I might not be able to turn defeat into victory."

"If the right time, the right place, and the harmony of people are all present, then it is already the general trend, and there will be no disadvantages."

……

"The imperial capital is so lively, do you want to go?"

"I'm a frail scholar, I don't like to fight and kill, so I won't join in the fun, just stand outside and cheer for you."

"The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole follows? Or does the crane and the clam compete for the fisherman's profit?"

"It should be watching from the sidelines, or watching the fire from the other side."

"Isn't it a meaning?"

"It's quite different."

"In my opinion, they all mean the same thing."

"I work hard, you work hard, and each performs his duties."

"Ah……"

"Furthermore, you all have nothing to worry about, but I still have an old mother, wife and children at home. If something happens in this land of tigers and wolves, what will the young and old in the family do?"

……

"I heard that Mr. Xu is about to get married, will you go?"

"Don't go."

"I remember that you two have a good friendship."

"It has nothing to do with friendship, it's just that the host doesn't like unwanted guests. Besides, you also know him, why don't you go?"

"I don't even dare to enter the imperial capital, so how dare I go to that imperial city?"

"Occasionally, I wonder why Xu Beiyou and Xiao Yu have the same virtues, but they can't let go of the princess status. What's so good about the princess."

"Let's not talk about the power represented by the status of a princess. There are only a few of the most noble women in the world. Only princesses are born with dignity. Young people who are used to poverty always have some fantasies about the high princess. If there is a chance to marry the princess, naturally we cannot let it go easily."

"In the end it's because of that identity."

"Men in the world always like that layer of identity more than women themselves, don't you and I do the same?"

"Is it the same for Xu Beiyou?"

"You're going to ask him that."

"It's boring."

……

"My surname is Chen, you have been hiding your head and showing your tail for so many years, and you are like a grassy snake, and you have a deep vein. What are you trying to do?"

"Sky secrets must not be leaked."

"Scholars bring disaster to the country."

"Murong, you are a martial artist, do you know what kind of scholar can harm the country?"

"I am a monk, not a warrior."

"In the eyes of those of us who work hard, it's all the same thing."

"But in the eyes of Xiao Yu's chess players, what is the difference between you, a hard-working scholar, and us monks and warriors who contribute? They are all chess pieces."

"That's why we don't like Xiao Yu and those people, so we want to overthrow them and become the chess player ourselves."

……

"I've always been curious about how you persuaded the Daoist sect."

"It's actually very simple. Taoism is not monolithic. There are five halls and twelve pavilions, eight peaks, nine veins and five sects, Xuandu and Taoism in various places, and even the remnants of the two veins of Taiqing and Shangqing. There are no autumn leaves. After the suppression, there were three more people vying for the position of the first disciple, just like a dilapidated house with air leaks on all sides, and there are places to strike everywhere."

"The only ones in the world who can confront Daqi's court head-on are the Daoist sects. Since we have the Daoist sects to fight, then our trip should be very safe."

"There's never been a sure thing in the world, you can only do your best and obey the destiny."

"Isn't it true that man can conquer nature?"

"..."

"This is not the you who said that you would win against Tian Banzi."

"People will always change, just like the young man who felt that everything was in his hands at the beginning, he lost in the end."

"then?"

"That's all, let's not talk about this, it's almost time, I have to go first."

"Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Because I found a helper for you, and now he has arrived."

……

Murong Xuanyin stopped abruptly, and the Confucian scholar walking beside him had disappeared.

In the boundless rain, a Taoist in Tsing Yi held an umbrella, stepped in the mud, and walked towards him slowly in the night.

Murong Xuanyin put his hands behind his back, let the fine autumn rain fall on the gorgeous clothes, and said softly: "It's really unexpected, it makes sense, I didn't expect him to be able to invite you."

The Taoist in Tsing Yi stopped when he was about three feet away from Murong Xuanyin, and said calmly: "In such a big world, besides the poor Taoist, who else can block Wanyan Beiyue for you?"

In the latest list of secrets, the head teacher of Taoism is still No.1 in the world, and the later founding master Wanyan Beiyue ranks third.

Now that Qiu Ye can't get out of seclusion, it is absolutely impossible to appear here, so there is no doubt about the identity of the person who came, it is the second place in the list of secrets, Qingchen Daoist.

Only he can confidently suppress Wanyan Beiyue.

Qingchen cut to the chase and said: "Pindao met him a while ago, we had a good conversation, and we each get what we need, that's why Pindao appeared here."

Murong Xuanyin remained silent.

Qingchen turned around with an umbrella and walked straight ahead, followed by Murong Xuanyin suspiciously.

The two walked in Meishan one by one, until the sky was dark and the autumn rain was intermittent, they came to a mountain top, and across the mountain stream, a majestic mausoleum also appeared in front of them.

The entire mountain is the mausoleum, and this place is just on the dark side of the mountain, that is, the back of the mausoleum. The entire cliff has been carved into a hideous dragon wall, and the two of them standing under it are as small as ants.

Qing Chen put away the umbrella in his hand, and said slowly: "Empty out the entire mountainside, and then go hundreds of feet underground, the founding emperor of Daqi will be buried here."

Murong Xuanyin frowned and said, "Is it that simple?"

Qing Chen said expressionlessly: "Of course it's not that simple. Xiao Yu started to build this mausoleum after he won the battle of Dingding. In addition to the major yamen of the imperial court, Tianji Pavilion and Tiance Mansion also participated in it. Xiao Jin was the supervising officer, and the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion mobilized more than 30 soldiers, and Qiu Ye sent more than [-] Daoist monks. It took nearly [-] years to complete the construction, and finally it was finished by the Dark Guard Mansion. This mausoleum is so vast that it is far away. It is better than the emperors of the previous dynasties, and the mystery and danger in it are not inferior to the imperial city array that was worked hard by the Zheng and Qi dynasties for hundreds of years."

Qing Chen gently waved his hand to disperse the morning mist in the forest, and said with a light smile, "Xiao Yu's ten thousand years are auspicious."

Murong Xuanyin murmured: "Being born as an emperor should be so."

Qing Chen continued: "Although Xiao Jin is the construction supervisor, he dare not say that he knows it well. He even suspects that the reason why Xiao Yu appointed him as the construction supervisor is to set up a bureau specifically for him, so he has been treating him all these years. Avoid this place, after Pindao learned about it from him, after several years of calculations, he finally figured out a key that Xiao Yu left behind by the Han River, took out a Buddha Bodhi from it, and was able to improve his cultivation base. If we take half a step further, we will be able to beat Wanyan Beiyue by a head, but this Buddha Bodhi is actually just a blinding method left by Xiao Yu, what is really important is another thing."

Murong Xuan said in a dark voice, "What is it?"

Qing Chen slightly increased his voice, "Of course it is the key to enter this mausoleum, and it is also Xiao Yu's destined person."

Murong Xuanyin's eyes were full of purple energy, and he said softly: "Is it where you are?"

Qingchen shook his head and said: "Pindao has already taken the Buddha's relic, so this thing has no predestined relationship with him, and it is not here."

The purple air in Murong Xuanyin's eyes flickered slightly, "Where is it?"

Qing Chen turned his head to look in the direction of the imperial capital, and said calmly: "The property has been returned to its original owner."
