Tang Turing returned to the cave. The children no longer studied, but helped Wangai prepare tonight's dinner. The setting sun shone on the children, and Tang Turing couldn't help feeling a little. Although the children were not the first We went on a trip for the first time, but the opportunities to eat together will become less and less in the future. Among this group of children, it is time for some of them to leave school.
Chen Hongjingfang saw the expression on Tang Turing's face and took the initiative to ask with a smile: "Master, are you free? Come and help me? I may not be able to handle it."
Tang Turing did not answer Chen Hongjing. Instead, he waved to Chen Hongjing to go over to him. Chen Hongjing put down what he was holding, wiped his hands, and walked in the direction of Tang Turing.
Tang Turing took off a small crystal purple pendant from his belt and placed it in Chen Hongjing's hand.
Chen Hongjing put it in front of him and looked at it carefully. The crystal purple rhombus was inlaid with four golden pillars, like a small pavilion.
Wait, Chen Hongjing took a closer look, and there seemed to be something moving inside, so he looked at Tang Turing aside. Tang Turing smiled and said, "Have you finally found it?" After saying that, he put his fingers together and said something in his mouth. After a spell, a purple light emerged from the small pendant and jumped onto Chen Hongjing's head.
"Ha, it's Xiao Ziqi." Chen Hongjing took Xiao Ziqi down from the top of his head, still the same as before, like to wrap himself in water drops. Chen Hongjing's fingers passed through the water drops, trying to touch Xiao Ziqi's head.
Unexpectedly, Zi Jinqing flicked her tail and hit Chen Hongjing's finger, and then swam aside. It seemed that he was angry that he had left it with Mrs. Tang Turing for too long. Chen Hongjing held the water droplets in front of his eyes with both hands and said with a smile: "How about I let you follow me all the time from now on?"
As if Zi Jinqing understood, she swam to the side closest to Chen Hongjing and spun around happily a few times. Tang Turing took advantage of this time to teach this spell to Chen Hongjing.
Chen Hongjing put Xiao Ziqi back into the hanging ornaments, and when he was about to go back, he was stopped by Tang Turing again.
Tang Turing found a high place where he could see the town below, and patted the empty seat next to him: "The sun is going down. How about watching the sunset with my wife and sitting down to chat for a while?"
Chen Hongkong nodded and sat down in the empty seat next to Tang Turing.
"You haven't tried to sit down and enjoy the scenery of Ganshu City quietly."
Chen Hongjing shook his head. This was indeed the first time he looked at Ganshu City from such a high place. Behind every school, there was a mountain, which was also the treasure house of each school. The two university palaces, Jingmo Pavilion and Lingquan Palace, were built on their own treasure houses. As for the Wuchen Pavilion, Chen Hongjing can now see a little bit of it.
Tang Turing waved in front of Chen Hongjing's eyes: "Child, don't look at the scenery in front of you. Lower your head and you will see a different scenery."
Chen Hongjing lowered his head. There were many people in the town, and everyone was heading in a different direction. Some people were walking towards home after a busy day. Some people have just finished dinner and gone shopping. Some people carry their belongings from home and go out to occupy a good place to prepare for the upcoming night market.
The setting sun stretches people's shadows, just like every stroke of ink in the hands of an artist, painting a painting that makes people feel peaceful, comfortable and beautiful.
Chen Hongjing put his hands back and took advantage of the fact that the sun hadn't completely set and the lanterns at the building and inn at the foot of the mountain hadn't been set up yet, so he could take a glance at the town.
"Hongjing, you have been in Ganshu City for almost a year. This year may not be long or short, but you are not like other students who spend most of your time in school. But I spent more time outside, and even a few times my life was hanging by a thread. Master, I want to apologize to you, and I also want to apologize to your grandfather, Master Su. I’m sorry, it’s Master It's because Licorice Hall didn't protect you well." Tang Turing patted Chen Hongjing on the shoulder and said lightly.
Chen Hongjing shook his head: "It's not like that, Master. When I was traveling, I learned this sentence: Time is also destiny. Every choice that everyone makes starts from the time you are born. It has already been decided. My name is Chen Hongjing, and others may not be called Chen Hongjing. Even if others are like me, with the same name and surname, they are called Chen Hongjing, but our lives are different. Therefore, my study at Licorice Hall may not be good. If you stay in the school, you may learn more outside. Come, Master, look at my hands."
Chen Hongjing spread his hands and placed them in front of Tang Turing. The child is still young, but his hands are covered with wrinkles that children should not have.
Tang Turing suddenly felt that Chen Hongjing had gone out, but he lost the old age and had more curiosity that a child should have.
"Na Hongjing, master asks you, do you really think that as soon as a person is born, his destiny will be resolved?"
"Haha, Master, during the journey, I learned another sentence, that is, one fate, two luck, three feng shui, four accumulation of yin virtue and five study. Although it is an innate destiny, we can still change it by the day after tomorrow. Let's do it It’s enough to do what you can do.”
Chen Hongjing stood up and pointed in the direction of the setting sun. The last ray of sunlight receded from the child's face. Tang Turing could not see the light in the child's eyes, but soon, the light in the child's eyes brightened again. That's because lanterns are set up in the building and inn at the foot of the mountain. Although the light is very weak, every bit of light condensed can illuminate the child's face.
The corners of Tang Turing's mouth turned up slightly. Yes, everyone can rely on acquired efforts to change their innate fate. Even a small change in this aspect can be said to be quite significant in a person's life. Hong Zhishun was like this, and Chen Hongjing was like this.
Tang Turing patted his knees and stood up: "Originally, I came to comfort you, but I didn't expect that you, a student, would come to comfort me instead. It's me who underestimated you."
"Oh, so you are here. The food is ready and senior brother is back. If you have anything to talk about, we can talk after dinner. If we don't eat, the chickens will probably be eaten by senior brother alone." Wangai came to the two of them holding a torch.
The two looked at each other, laughed in unison, and walked back to the original road. Wangai walked to the end to illuminate them. The light of the torch shone on Wangai, but the light in Wangai's eyes dimmed, and his pupils The direction in the middle was looking at Chen Hongjing.
——
In Chi Yuan Kingdom, in Gong Yuansong's Mansion, ten people were crowded into a small room, discussing things.
"Everyone, look here. This is a simplified map I asked Xu Danqing to draw." Zhong Daihan pointed to a place on the map with his fan, and the other nine people immediately came together to take a look. It's okay if it's not close, but when I get closer, what do I see? It's pitch black. It turned out that everyone's figures blocked the light of the candle.
Zhong Daihan finally couldn't help it anymore and shouted loudly: "I said, Mr. Gong's room is already small. Does everyone have to come in to discuss it? Pick a few to stay here, and the rest, go out and wait outside."
"Jin Ying." Gong Yuansong said softly, and Jin Ying immediately handed over and walked out.
Qian Shantai turned around and said, "Let's go, Lao Tian, Yin Dian, let's go out and visit the night market in Chi Yuan Kingdom."
Zhong Daihan looked at Li Zhousong. Unexpectedly, the boy was still so ignorant. He folded his hands on his chest and started studying it seriously.
Zhong Daihan could only cough lightly: "Lao Zhou, why don't you go out to the night market for them?"
Li Zhousong looked at Zhong Daihan in surprise: "There are so many people missing, and you still want me to go out?"
Zhong Daihan smiled, leaned into Li Zhousong's ear and said: "Boy, can you take care of the face of our Dalan Dynasty? Lord Gong's personal bodyguard and the deputy head of the Licorice Hall have gone out. It’s a bit inappropriate to have three people here. You should be smarter and get out of here.”
The sound isn't loud, but neither is the house.
Li Zhousong said: "I don't. Why didn't Xu Danqing go out? If you want me to go out, I don't want it."
Zhong Daihan continued to support his smile, put his hands behind his back, and gritted his teeth and said: "This picture was drawn by Xu Danqing. If you ask others to come out, will you do the talking? Or, I will go out?"
Li Zhousong blinked and said with a smile: "Well, that's no need. Suddenly I really want to go to the night market in Chi Yuan Kingdom."
After Li Zhousong finished speaking, he opened the door quickly, jumped out, and closed the door of the room neatly. Zhong Daihan squinted his eyes and looked at the door. If you take one step slower, I will even hold the door open and kick you out. I can still afford to pay for the door to Master Gong’s room.
Zhong Daihan sighed and pointed to a point on the map with his fan again: "This is the territory of our Dalan Dynasty, Tucheng. As for this, it is Shuiyang Kingdom and Chiyuan Kingdom. As for the Hongfan we captured, the given Not a lot of information.”
"He said that after the Tianji Sect left Chiyuan Kingdom, they split into several teams on the way to Tucheng and set off in different directions."
Gong Yuansong asked: "Guys, couldn't you use the spell you used in the hall that day to peek into his memory?"
"I didn't expect Mr. Gong to still remember that spell. That spell is certainly possible, but the human brain is very strange. We humans sometimes inexplicably add some memories to ourselves that have never happened in reality. Hong Fan's words in the main hall The memory is so profound, and we happened to hit some key points, which made him remember it naturally. Even if it is a little embellished and the memory has never appeared, it cannot hinder the truth. "
Xu Danqing looked aside and said with a smile: "I don't know if I am right, Hall Master Zhao, Hall Master Li?"
Zhao Xuanhu and Li Zhilan nodded at the same time without speaking. Seeing this, Xu Danqing continued: "But when we used the same spell to verify what he said, the scene that day was either an extra layer of fog, or there were so many people in front of us that we couldn't tell the difference. Several teams of people.”
"So, the Tianji Sect may go to several places to promote their religion. What does the Sixth Prince mean by asking us to speculate on where they are going and confront them?" Li Zhilan asked.
Zhong Daihan nodded: "If it can be guessed, that would be great. It would be best to catch them all in one go. If they stay too long like they did in Chi Yuan Kingdom and Shui Yuan Kingdom, and their thoughts affect the people, at that time It will be difficult to deal with.”
Xu Danqing pointed out a few more places on the map: "So, according to speculation, they should set off to these countries, Jintan Country, Buxing Country, Lianzhu Country, and Cuijing Country."
"Then our manpower is far from enough." Li Zhilan looked at Zhong Daihan.
Zhong Daihan opened his fan and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid there's really nothing I can do to help, Hall Master Li. I told you two in the palace that if I could intervene, I wouldn't bother you with your help."
Did Zhong Daihan say that he wanted to solve the problem himself before the current Dalan Dynasty sage, or did he not report the matter to his superiors at all, or did the sixth prince also have some trouble with Zhao Jishi, the leader of the Tianji Sect? No matter what kind of suspicion it is, although Zhong Daihan does have reservations about them, it is indeed true that they really want to destroy Tianji Sect. Li Zhilan nodded, expressing understanding, and stopped asking any more questions.
Zhao Xuanhu looked at a place on the map. He probably knew which country his brother would be in. He pointed to the location of Jintan Kingdom: "Everyone, let me go to Jintan Kingdom."
"Then you can take me along with you. We didn't have a pleasant chat last time. If we meet this time, we will definitely have a nice chat." Li Zhilan said.
Zhong Daihan nodded: "Then we will go back to Tucheng first. After cleaning up, we will rush to Cuijing Kingdom. Chiyuan Kingdom and Shuiyang Kingdom are so close, it will be hard for Lord Gong to run back and forth."
Gong Yuansong waved his hand: "It's okay. For the sake of the people, I can still make a few more trips with my old bones."
"Then let Lao Tian, Lao Gu and Yin Dian go to Lianzhu Kingdom. As for Bu Xing Kingdom, we can only find a solution later." Li Zhilan looked at Zhao Xuanhu, who nodded in agreement. .
Zhong Daihan put away his fan, cupped his hands and said, "That's it, Zhong would like to thank you all in advance. I wish us victory."
Li Zhilan and Zhao Xuanhu walked out of the gate of Gongyuansong. Zhao Xuanhu looked at the direction where Zhong Daihan and others left and said with a smile: "After the meeting, I didn't even sleep, so I rushed back to Tucheng without stopping. Allies, what percentage do you think is most beneficial to us?"
"Anyway, be careful. Your brother, my friend is more talkative than us. Who knows if one day we will make a deal with Zhao Jishi. By the way, Chen Hongjing may be a day or two late. Before they can leave, I also wrote back and asked them to go directly to Bu Xing Kingdom by then." Li Zhilan replied.
"That's good. As for the others, it's time for them to prepare. Let's go back to the inn to rest. We will set off for Jintan Kingdom early tomorrow morning." Zhao Xuanhu looked at the sky. The moon and stars were sparse tonight, and everything was going Develop in a good direction.
