Fighter of the Destiny

After dividing the spoils, no, after dividing the swords, Zhexiu didn't have the energy or interest to chat with them, so he closed his eyes again. Chen Changsheng took his pulse and confirmed that his injuries were improving. He felt a little relieved. He also felt that there seemed to be some new problems with his meridians, and the rhythm of his whims was much slower than before. Is this a sign of depletion of true energy? Chen Changsheng did not dare to think about this possibility, so he dimmed the light of the oil lamp, put the sword back into its sheath, and signaled Tang Sanliu and Xuanyuan Po to follow him out of the library.

"Is it okay?" Tang Sanliu asked.

Chen Changsheng did not answer this question directly, but asked: "Zhou Tong, who exactly is he?"

After leaving the Qing Li Si Yamen today and seeing the tragic scene of broken sleeves in the carriage, he had already secretly made up his mind, but he also remembered clearly that standing in that quiet little courtyard, the begonia flowers were falling like snow. , Zhou Tong's red official robe brought them a sense of mental coercion and terror. He wanted to know when he would have to wait until he could truly face this terror.

"Zhou Tong lied. He has no sister."

In the afternoon, the Wenshui Tang family sent relevant information.

Tang Thirty-Six said: "He and the empress did not meet in front of any palace, but in the Baicao Garden. At that time, he should still be in the Zhaojing state, but later his state advanced by leaps and bounds, and he soon succeeded in gathering stars. It is said that it was because of him When I destroyed those princes' mansions under the orders of the empress, I secretly took many geniuses and treasures."

"Does the Holy Queen not care about these things?" Chen Changsheng naturally did not think that the Holy Queen did not know these things, so he used the word "not caring".

Tang Thirty-Six shook his head and said: "Zhou Tong's most powerful method is called Dahongpao. It is a spiritual technique. It is said that it can forcibly enter the practitioner's sea of ​​consciousness."

Chen Changsheng and Xuanyuan Po thought about the sea of ​​blood they saw in the small courtyard today, and felt cold again. Tang Sanliu continued: "If Dahongpao moves, Zhou Tong can easily crush our sea of ​​consciousness. Of course, he won't do this, but if you want to avenge Zhexiu at this time, then you will definitely Taste that.”

This is a reminder and a warning.

Chen Changsheng was a little confused: "Since he didn't dare to kill us anyway, why did he destroy the Dahongpao in the courtyard today? Just to establish his authority?"

"Zhou Tong is a cruel and insidious person, but he is also very calculating. Logically speaking, he should not do such meaningless things."

Tang Sanliu couldn't think clearly, and raised his sword eyebrows slightly as he said, "I felt at the time that he wanted to shock our Taoist hearts through that sea of ​​blood, and then wanted to see something."

"What does he want to see?" Xuanyuan Po said from the side: "I'm not afraid anyway, I don't have any secrets."

Chen Changsheng remained silent because he had many secrets.

In fact, when he came to Kyoto from Xining Town, he only had physical secrets. However, as time went by, his secrets became more and more. For example, the Heavenly Book Stele in the Zhou Garden, the black coffin in the Zhou Tomb, the two-breaking knife formula on the coffin wall, for example... Zhou Garden may not have been destroyed, and the road leading to Zhou Garden is currently in the scabbard of his sword. inside.

…

…

Return to the small building, take a bath and calm down, and then meditate.

He came to the window, glanced at the sea of ​​stars in the night sky, sat cross-legged on the floor, closed his eyes and began to meditate, preparing to do his nightly homework, directing starlight to cleanse his marrow, and then tried to pass through the void of the black stone tablet again. Shadow found his way through Zhou Garden.

However, I don’t know whether it was because I was used to practicing in the library, or because I suffered too much mental shock in Zhou Prison today, so I was rarely able to enter concentration.

The next moment, a very light and faint fragrance floated to his nose, and he realized that the reason why he could not meditate was not because of these reasons, but because someone was coming.

Mo Yu floated out of the night forest in the National Education Academy, floated directly to the window, and then floated in.

Under the starlight, she seemed so beautiful that she was not touched by the world.

The whole process seemed very familiar to her, as if she had practiced it countless times.

But she didn't expect that Chen Changsheng would be sitting cross-legged on the floor behind the window tonight, so when she floated into the small building and squatted down, she happened to be squatting in front of Chen Changsheng.

The distance between the two people is very close, their noses seem to be touching, and their eyes are looking at each other.

The scene is a bit embarrassing.

Fortunately, Mo Yu's breath was like orchid, and Chen Changsheng was as clean as the sky after the rain, so the two of them didn't feel too annoyed.

The night breeze blew gently, and a strand of black hair floated up, falling on Chen Changsheng's face. It was a little itchy, so he frowned.

Mo Yu flew to the bed, his movements indeed seemed very familiar, as if he had done it countless times.

Chen Changsheng knew about her quirk, but until now, he still couldn't understand it, and of course he couldn't accept it.

"You're not going to sleep in my bed again, are you?" he asked.

"Can't you? You won't be in this bed at this time anyway."

Mo Yu looked particularly confident, but under the starlight, she could vaguely see a slight blush on her face.

Chen Changsheng said helplessly: "But I am here at this time, why are you here too?"

Mo Yu said: "You usually practice in the library at this time. Who knows what went wrong with your brain today to come back so early."

Chen Changsheng felt that he was innocent and wanted to blame me.

Then he thought about Luoluo again, and remembered that he and Luoluo had rarely had the chance to meet each other recently, and they rarely talked. For some reason, he felt a little depressed.

Mo Yu looked at his expression and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Zhe Xiu was seriously injured and was resting in the library. I was afraid of disturbing him, so I came back early."

Mo Yu looked at him, suddenly frowned, and said, "I thought you should be very angry now."

In fact, she and Chen Changsheng had only met a few times and were not familiar with each other. Before Chen Changsheng came out of the Mausoleum of Heavenly Books, their status was very different. But for some reason, she found that Chen Changsheng had been there since they met in the palace. Changsheng is easy to arouse her own anger. Anger is actually an emotion, so this shows that Chen Changsheng can easily affect her emotions.

This was something she couldn't understand.

She also couldn't understand why Chen Changsheng could control his emotions so well at the age of sixteen.

Chen Changsheng did not answer her question.

Today's encounter in Zhou Prison, mainly the tragic situation of his broken sleeves, will certainly cause him emotional problems. It's just that he learned a very simple truth from Senior Brother Yu Ren when he was a child. Later, he realized this truth more clearly in Xunyang City. Just keep some things in your mind silently. You don't need to show them, you just need to do them. Impulse and enthusiasm are never synonyms, and calmness does not mean cowardice. Even if everyone thinks he is cowardly, he won't care, not to mention that the person speaking now is Mo Yu.

He and Mo Yu are not friends, and he knows very well how terrifying this famous beauty of the Zhou Dynasty is, especially after today.

The entire continent knows that Mo Yu and Zhou Tong are the two people the Holy Empress most relies on. If Zhou Tong is so terrifying, how bad will she be?

"Shouldn't we say long time no see?" Mo Yu said.

After careful calculation, they had not seen each other since the imperial examination.

But Chen Changsheng didn't feel the need to say this, because he had never thought about meeting her, but she would always appear in front of him.

Chen Changsheng didn't answer three consecutive sentences, which made Mo Yu feel a little bad. His eyes narrowed slightly, sharp... like the willow leaves outside the palace wall, very beautiful.

"You are very hostile to me," she said.

Chen Changsheng said: "You should be very aware of the current situation in Kyoto."

Mo Yu laughed and said with a hint of ridicule: "Do you think you are really qualified to be regarded as an enemy by the empress?"

Chen Changsheng said: "Even if I am qualified, I don't want to become your empress's enemy, but it's obvious that the people over there don't think so."

This naturally refers to the new rules for martial arts performances in various academies, and the suppression of the National Religion Academy by the Tianhai family and the new faction of the National Religion School.

Mo Yu suppressed his smile and said, "What others think has nothing to do with what you do."

Chen Changsheng said: "I came to Kyoto just to practice and study. I never thought I would be involved in such big events, but do you think I can avoid it?"

Mo Yu's voice was slightly cold as he said, "Why can't you avoid it? Just because you are the only orthodox inheritor of the state religion?"

This is of course a very good reason, because people cannot deny their own teacher background and past years, that would mean denying themselves. But this is definitely not the whole reason, because Chen Changsheng used to care more about the speed of cultivation and changing his destiny against the will of heaven, but later he found that he had to care about whether Luoluo's meridians could be opened, whether Xuanyuan Po's right arm could be cured, and whether Zhexiu could be cured. Whether the whim of Tang Sanliu can be solved, when Tang Sanliu will have a name that satisfies him, and most importantly... whether the gate of the National Education Academy can be preserved intact.

He has not forgotten what the Bishop of Merissa said to him before he died.

In addition to pursuing what you want and what you must get, isn't the so-called growth process just taking on one responsibility after another?

Mo Yu stood up, looked at him condescendingly, and said with an indifferent expression: "Your Majesty is invincible."

At this time, she turned back into the big shot she usually was who could silence all the officials. Chen Changsheng's attitude towards her did not change at all. Thinking about the storm in Xunyang City and Wang Po's plain words after Zhu Luo and Stargazer appeared at the same time, he said: "...I think Try it."

Of course he couldn't defeat the Holy Queen, there was no need to try.

He just wanted to try and see if he and the National Education Academy could stop the storm this time.

Mo Yu suddenly lost interest in talking and walked out of the small building. Of course, she still habitually regarded the window as the front entrance.

When she walked past, Chen Changsheng suddenly thought of a possibility and asked with some uncertainty: "Did you always sleep in my bed when I was in Tianshu Mausoleum and Zhou Garden?"

Mo Yu was a little embarrassed and shouted: "So what?"

Chen Changsheng was helpless. There was nothing he could do about this matter. Although he was young, he was still a man. There was no one he could talk to about this matter, and he couldn't beat her.

"Then..." He hesitated for a long time and finally said it: "Remember to take a shower frequently from now on. It's best... come back after taking a shower every time."

As soon as he said this, he knew it was inappropriate because it sounded very warm and ambiguous.

As expected, Mo Yu's beautiful eyebrows stood up, her beautiful face full of evil intent, and she said in a cold voice: "Do you want to die?"

Chen Changsheng knew that he really shouldn't, so he kept saying: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

Mo Yu looked calmer and said, "If apologizing is useful, then you can stop killing Zhou Tong in the future?"

Chen Changsheng said seriously: "Of course not."

Mo Yu said: "So, words are always not as sincere as gifts."

Chen Changsheng was stunned, thinking that with your status in the Great Zhou Dynasty, except for guys like Tang Sanshiliu, who would dare to be richer than you? What can I give you?

"I heard that you have a Yue Nv Sword here?"

Mo Yu looked at him and smiled brightly, and said, "Do you think this is a coincidence? My empress taught me this swordsmanship when I was a child."
