Fighter of the Destiny

Chen Changsheng's gaze passed through the black willow forest and landed on the Great Zhou cavalry in the snowy field, and he understood what Su Li had just said. Apart from the demons, the people in this continent who wanted him dead the most were the Zhou people. These Great Zhou cavalry who were obviously searching for targets were proof of this, but he still felt that there might be other possibilities. For example, were these Great Zhou cavalry coming to save us?

"Why do you always think of the worst side of things?" Su Li listened to his question and said sarcastically: "Because everything tends to develop according to people's worst assumptions."

As if to prove his words, dozens of cavalry were separated from the hundreds of cavalry and drove towards the black willow forest. They painted a black line on the monotonous snow field. When they arrived in front of the black willow forest, those cavalrymen They all pulled out their weapons from their saddles and dropped their helmets, appearing very alert - no matter what, these cavalrymen were not here to save people, but to kill.

The cavalry enters the forest with heavy hoofbeats, and occasionally the sound of black willow branches being broken. Whether they are rescuing people or killing people, they don't need to hide their whereabouts. And if the target they are searching for is really as the intelligence said. , is just a useless person, so the next thing should be very simple.

At some point, Chen Changsheng's right hand had already landed on the hilt of the sword, ready to draw out the dagger at any time.

His body is really strong now. Even if he traveled across thousands of miles of snowy fields, all the fatigue and hidden injuries disappeared without a trace after sleeping on the cold kang for a night. His true energy gradually recovered, and he was even in the Zhou Garden. The injuries he suffered have healed a lot. He is confident that he can defeat or even kill the dozens of cavalry who entered the forest, even though these cavalry must be elites who have successfully cleansed their marrow. But he didn't have any confidence that he could kill these cavalry quietly without alerting the cavalry brigade that was marching eastward on the snowy field. More importantly, these cavalry were all Zhou's troops, and he was from Zhou. There is really no way to go on a rampage and kill people without asking for any reason.

He didn't know what to do. He stared silently at the faint shadows of the cavalry in the dark willow forest. As those shadows got closer and closer, his breathing became more and more rapid and nervous. He was holding the hilt of his sword. His hands and fingers were getting whiter and whiter. If the situation was allowed to develop like this, it wouldn't take long before the cavalrymen would see him and Su Li.

"Senior, let's go."

He finally made a decision, turned around and motioned for Su Li to come closer, and prepared to run away with Su Li on his back.

Since he can no longer hide and draw his sword to kill, he can only run away. Fortunately, he now has unimaginable speed. I believe that the cavalry will not be able to catch up in a short time. As for Zhou Jun's discovery of the relationship between himself and Su Li, He can't care about what kind of trouble it will cause after his whereabouts for now.

Su Li had no intention of leaving and said, "Open the umbrella."

Chen Changsheng didn't understand, so he took the yellow paper umbrella he handed over and opened it. Then he transferred the real energy into the umbrella handle according to Su Li's instructions, and at the same time activated a certain mechanism on the umbrella ribs. A faint breath hung from the surface of the yellow paper umbrella, like an invisible waterfall, covering the surrounding area. The cold wind could not blow into the yellow paper umbrella, but snow began to fall in the sky. The light snow fell on the umbrella surface silently.

Dozens of cavalrymen came to the depths of the black willow forest and arrived not far in front of them.

Chen Changsheng was very nervous. Looking at the cavalry more than ten feet away, he could even clearly see the color of the eyes of the leader of the cavalry.

The dozens of cavalrymen seemed to see nothing and continued to disperse around the black willow forest.

…

…

After an unknown amount of time, after confirming that the cavalry had left the Black Willow Forest, Chen Changsheng suddenly relaxed and found that the two hands holding the handle of the umbrella and the hilt of the sword had become a little stiff due to tension.

"Close the umbrella." Su Li said.

He put away the yellow paper umbrella as instructed, tied it around his waist, and prepared to leave.

"Don't be too hasty, those cavalry should still be waiting outside." Su Li said again.

Chen Changsheng did not question, and sat down again in the snowdrift next to the tree. Then he looked at the yellow paper umbrella and said with emotion: "I didn't expect this umbrella to be so useful."

Su Li raised the corners of his lips slightly and said, "You don't even think about who I am."

Chen Changsheng didn't answer. He was really a little tired, and he knew that even if he didn't answer, this narcissistic senior would definitely be able to answer the question himself.

As expected, Su Li raised his eyebrows slightly, as if he wanted to fly, and said proudly: "This is a magical weapon designed by me and Old Man Tang. It uses the Heaven-Zealing Sword as the pivot and countless rare materials as the body. Even if you are sitting in the photo, Practitioners at this level may not be able to see through illusions, do these ordinary cavalry still want to see through my umbrella?"

Chen Changsheng was about to speak but stopped.

Su Li raised his eyebrows higher and said, "If you have anything to say, just let it go."

Chen Changsheng said: "Senior, this umbrella... belongs to me."

It was very quiet in the black willow forest, and the snow fell silently.

When they left Xueling Hot Spring, they had a dispute over this matter. Chen Changsheng thought that he was seriously injured, so he did not continue, but at this time he couldn't help it anymore, because he thought that the umbrella was his own.

Su Li looked at him and sneered: "Do you know the origin of this umbrella?"

Chen Changsheng heard some stories about yellow paper umbrellas told by Zhexiu, plus what he saw in Zhou Garden and the snowy field, he basically understood them all and nodded.

Su Li ignored him and continued to tell the story of the umbrella. Finally, he stared into his eyes and said, "The sword I found, the umbrella I designed, but you said this umbrella is yours?"

Chen Changsheng said: "But the materials for this umbrella were all found by Mr. Tang. Isn't it because you couldn't afford it when you left this umbrella at the Tang family in Wenshui?"

Su Li's expression turned cold and he said, "Say it again."

Chen Changsheng thought that it was indeed inaccurate to say that he could not afford the money. He reorganized his words and said, "Isn't it because you defaulted on the debt, senior, that the yellow paper umbrella belongs to the Tang family in Wenshui?"

Su Li laughed angrily and said, "I am the highest-ranking elder in Lishan. I travel all over the world, robbing families and homes, and do all kinds of evil. Do I still need money?"

Chen Changsheng didn't pay attention to the character of "robbery and robbery" in his words, and explained seriously: "But you didn't give me any money."

Su Li found that he had nothing to say, so he stopped talking.

The atmosphere in the room became a little awkward. Chen Changsheng stood up slowly, climbed to the black willow tree and observed the movements of the Great Zhou cavalry in the distance, while blowing away the heat on his face.

After a while, he fell down from the black willow tree and said to Su Li: "Senior, those cavalry should have really withdrawn."

Su Li ignored him.

Chen Changsheng said: "Senior, if these cavalry are really here to hunt you, do you still need to hide their whereabouts now? You don't believe us Zhou people, but there are always people you can trust, just like you said before , someone will come to kill you, and someone will come to save you. Although you are far away from the mountain, those who want to save you may be very close."

Su Li looked into his eyes and said, "The question is, are there more people who want to kill me or more people who want to save me? Who is more urgent?"

Chen Changsheng hesitated and said, "Senior...do you think of human nature too darkly?"

"It's not human nature, it's the human heart. Human nature cannot be tested, and the human heart cannot be guessed. Fanatic love and disgust are all interests in the final analysis. Emperor Taizong was obviously a shameless man who killed his brother and forced his father, and Zhou Du|fu was obviously a murderer. Wushu butchers, why do they have a golden light in the eyes of ordinary people? Because Emperor Taizong and Zhou|**** brought them enough benefits, they drove the demons back to Xuelao The city can save the humans living in the Central Plains from wars and enslavement by foreign races, so they will naturally be what people want."

Su Li looked at him and asked seriously: "What about me? I live in a peaceful age without war. Apart from killing a few demon generals, I haven't done much. What have I done for the human world? For cultivation What kind of benefits have the researchers and the people obtained? Is it worth it for them to come all the way to help me? Just because my swordsmanship is powerful and invincible, and my bearing is extraordinary?"

It was obviously a serious or even serious discussion or teaching, but because of the last two sentences, the tone changed. Chen Changsheng didn't know how to answer the question at all, and asked: "What about the southerners?"

In ordinary terms, Li Shan's junior uncle Su Li is the strongest person in the southern world now. It is precisely because of his existence that the south can maintain its final dignity and pride before the prosperous Zhou Dynasty.

"Of course there are many southerners who are grateful to me, but there are also many southerners who hate me. As I said a few days ago, I have killed many people. Since I have lived in the south since I was a child, most of the people I killed must be southerners. , they all have relatives, classmates and descendants, how could they like me? Of course, no matter how many people have hatred against me, they cannot be the mainstream, otherwise I will become a street rat that everyone shouts about. The problem is that many years ago I once did something that disappointed the entire southern world, so more and more people don’t like me.”

"What's the matter?" Chen Changsheng asked curiously.

"You should know about the murder at the National Education Academy more than ten years ago."

"Know."

"Speaking of which, is Taoist Ji really your master?"

"Senior...actually, I really don't know about this matter."

"Okay, let's get back to the topic. In short, after the case of the National Education Academy, the Pope was seriously injured, the army was in civil strife, the court was fighting, Zhou Tong killed people randomly, Kyoto was in chaos, and your Zhou Kingdom was in a mess. In the eyes of the southerners, there is no doubt that This is the best opportunity, and I have to admit that the Changsheng Sect at that time was indeed very strong and could compete with Li Gong."

"Then?"

"When the Southerners were preparing to launch a campaign for several years, I went to the Changsheng Sect for some reason and killed all the elders. So naturally what they were planning to do had to be left alone."

"Senior, this kind of secret is indeed shocking, but why do I always feel that you are praising yourself in a different way?"

"There is nothing to praise for such a tragic thing."

It was rare that Su Li didn't take over the conversation and continue to praise himself, his expression was so calm that it made people feel a little heartbroken.
