Chapter 258: Dragon Quest
I want you to accompany me to see Mr. Zhang.
Fang Bie seemed to say calmly.
And the sentence itself is not bland.
Shang Li looked at Fang Bie and did not directly give Fang Bie a positive or negative answer.
Zhang Zhenren is Zhang Buping.
The current leader of the Wu-Dang Clan.
The Wudang Clan is in Hubei, not very far from Jiangxi.
In other words, it's quite close.
I have already come to Jiangxi, so it is not a big problem to go to Hubei again.
But Shang Li did not give Fang Bie an answer immediately.
He was just waiting for Fang to stop talking.
"Zhenzhen Zhang will not go down the mountain." Fang Bie added.
As the saying goes, those who come are not good and those who are good will not come.
Fang Bie had no close friendship with the Wudang Sect before, and if he rashly went up the mountain with the name of challenging Master Zhang, he would most likely be beaten with random swords.
Guo Jing received similar treatment when he came to the Quanzhen Sect.
But if Fang don't want Shang Li to accompany him, it has another meaning.
But this significance cannot be said.
"You really want me to meet Master Zhang?" Shang Li looked at Fang Bi and said helplessly.
Fang Bie smiled and nodded: "Yes."
He went to see Zhang Buping and went to see Zhang Buping with Shang Li, but it was not as effective as Fang Biejie and Shang Li going to see Zhang Buping together.
As the saying goes, three cobblers are worth one Zhuge Liang.
So what if instead of three stooges, there are three swordsman masters who are almost at the top of the world in different fields?
"I haven't visited Master Zhang for a long, long time." Shang Li said slowly.
He used this adjective for a long time.
Fang Bie smiled: "Since we haven't seen each other for a long time, it's more important to meet him, right?"
…
…
"Fang Bie and Shang Li appeared in Jiangxi at the same time, and they seemed to be deliberately letting us see them." Yin Ye walked into the dark room, his footsteps clear: "From the perspective of the route, the purpose of the two people is the Wudang Sect."
"Wu-Dang Clan?" Qin smiled: "This is a good thing."
Yin Ye sat down in front of Qin, picked up the teapot and poured water for himself: "Your Highness the Queen Bee has suddenly become very quiet recently."
"In terms of time, it should be after meeting Guo Juxia."
Saying this, Yin Ye raised his eyes and looked at Qin: "Actually, I have never supported your Excellency in letting her meet Guo Juxia. After all, that man is so dangerous, and Her Highness Queen Bee has always been undercurrents on the calm surface."
Qin did not answer Yin Ye directly, but smiled: "But don't you think it would be fun?"
"I don't think this will be interesting. I just feel that it is very chaotic now." Yin Ye said: "Your Majesty's previous plan has basically come to an end, and there are probably 8 out of 10 people behind it."
"But what you plan now will most likely come true."
Yin Ye looked at Qin in the darkness: "I don't think this is a good thing."
"It doesn't feel like it's funny either."
Qin looked at Yin Ye, at the woman in the darkness, and at the steam rising from the teacup in front of her.
"Drink." Qin looked at Yin Ye and said.
Yin Ye was stunned for a moment, then drank the water in the tea cup.
Watching Yin Ye finish the glass of water, Qin Cai said calmly: "You're unhappy, right? Because you always like to control the overall situation and strategize. As long as you have enough intelligence and information, plus your own abilities and With careful operation, you can make things in this world go as you wish nine out of ten times.”
"When everything in this world goes as you wish, you will feel joy from the bottom of your heart."
"But similarly, if everything in this world is contrary to what you want, then it will be hard for you to feel restless and unsure of where you are."
Yin Ye listened to what Qin said, his expression didn't change much, and he didn't speak either.
Qin laughed: "But things in the world cannot be controlled by one person. If you are not happy, then that person will be even less happy."
"But my lord's purpose is not just to make him unhappy." Yin Ye said quietly: "My lord is the one who wants to pull him down."
"Yes." Qin nodded: "I want to pull him down."
"But how to pull him down? Looking at the entire history books, there are only two ways."
"One is to rise up in rebellion, defeat all enemies head-on and finally pull him off that throne."
"The second way is to simply choose to kill him."
"That's our old profession - assassination."
"As far as the first method is concerned, the final success of thousands of years of history is only those ten or twenty people. I am not proud enough to think that I can be ranked among those ten or twenty people."
"As for the second method, he has always been a person who cherishes his life. His martial arts skills are unfathomable. There are many masters in the palace, and the evil is unpredictable."
"Even if I go to Yanjing in person, I may not be able to escape unscathed, let alone escape with one hit."
Yin Ye looked at Qin and smiled softly: "Actually, our most reliable weapon may be time. After all, all the emperors in the world have been defeated by this weapon."
"It can be said to be the weapon with the highest success rate."
Qin nodded, then looked at Yin Ye: "Yes, this is the most reliable weapon in the world, but this time, it may not be reliable."
"He may not be immortal yet, but he should at least outlive us."
Yin Ye shook his head and smiled, poured tea, and drank it: "So I say that your Excellency has really chosen an exceptional opponent."
"Being able to be the dog of such a big shot is something that many people dream of."
"What about you?" Qin looked at Yin Ye.
"Since the day I was chosen by the adults, I no longer have a choice." Yin Ye said softly.
Qin couldn't help but laugh: "Actually, I'm looking forward to seeing what changes you can bring to this world after I die."
"If you are dead, then no matter how the world changes, it will at least have nothing to do with you." Yin Ye said without hesitation.
"What a heartless woman." Qin shook his head.
"Because you really have a death wish. Perhaps because of this, you chose not to kill enemies who could have been easily killed," Yin Ye said.
In fact, now that many things have been revealed, the conversation between the two seems more open and honest.
"So you think I will lose to Fang Bie?" Qin asked.
Fang Bi's challenge can be said to be the latest crisis Qin has faced.
"I'm afraid that you will lose to Fang Bie." Yin Ye said.
Not thinking, but fearing.
Yin Ye believed that Qin would not lose, but was afraid that Qin would lose.
After all, match-fixing has always been a common occurrence in the arena.
"I will not let go of that man." Qin said with a smile: "If even I can't defeat him, his words will become the ridiculous ravings of a clown."
"He doesn't need to defeat the adults, he just needs to get their approval, and recognize that he can do things that the adults can't do."
"Because for what you want to do, there are actually many allies in this world."
"Although these allies may not be united, they share the same goal. For now, there is no doubt that Fang Bie is an ally."
Qin looked at the ceiling noncommittally: "I feel like my body is getting moldy after living on this boat for a long time."
"Fang Bie has already met with Shang Li. If they really go to Wudang Mountain to meet Zhang Buping, it will definitely be a very interesting thing."
"At least Fang Bu has worked very hard on defeating me."
"He needs you as his certificate of surrender." Yin Ye said lightly: "If he really gets your head and is willing to dedicate it to His Majesty, then he will have a chance to get close to him."
"It sounds like the story of Jing Ke and Fan Yuqi." Qin smiled: "But Fan Yuqi handed over his head, and Prince Dan gave away the map of Yan State, but in the end, Jing Ke did not succeed, and was instead Ying Zheng cut off his leg with a sword."
Saying this, Qin shook his head: "How ironic. As an assassin, he was defeated by his mission target in front of him. I'm afraid there is nothing more embarrassing and funny in the world than this."
"But if someone dares to assassinate our monarch, then I'm afraid such embarrassing and funny things will happen again."
Everyone in the hive agreed that His Majesty's martial arts were at the pinnacle, and even said that he was the well-deserved number one in the world.
Otherwise - this man who was able to build a hive in the first place, with the support of countless secrets and treasures provided by the hive for decades, would instead retreat instead of advancing. This is also the biggest joke in the world.
If this man still wants to live forever, it will undoubtedly be more dangerous.
"So even the current adults still don't have any confidence when facing our Majesty, right?" Yin Ye asked.
Qin looked at Yin Ye like this: "The only thing I'm glad about now is that our Majesty doesn't want to leave his palace."
"He is only interested in immortality and eternal power, but he is not interested in the world's best martial arts."
"For him, power and wealth are the greatest nourishment in this world, and martial arts are just a means to protect these nourishment and wealth."
Yin Ye nodded: "It sounds like a dragon."
"Evil dragon?" Qin asked.
He had never heard such similar words.
"Yes, the dragon." Yin Ye nodded: "Fang Bie once told me the story of the Dragon Quest."
"He said that in the far west, there lived huge creatures called dragons."
"It is like a huge lizard, with scales and long wings. It can spread its wings and fly in the sky, and it can spit out flames or venom from its mouth."
"This is a creature that can be said to be the most powerful in the world, but it has no interest in this world at all."
"Its only interest is treasure."
“It likes mountains of treasure, the more the better, the sky’s the limit.”
"It likes to sleep forever on piles of gold. Some of this gold is provided to it by others, and some of it is taken from villages and towns with great effort. Then it gathers these properties just for collection and viewing."
"After all, even if it is an evil dragon, it cannot use these gold jewelry as food."
"Of course, this kind of creature also has a long lifespan. It may take a short nap to last an ordinary person's lifespan."
"Don't tell me, evil dragons don't always exist, but monarchs like evil dragons are everywhere."
"Now it seems that His Majesty is a creature like a dragon."
Qin listened quietly, and then asked with interest: "What then?"
Yes, by comparison, His Majesty is indeed an extremely powerful evil dragon.
There is no benefit to such evil dragons existing in the world.
But such evil dragons really exist in this world.
It sounds so unpleasant.
"Then there will be brave men who will fight against these evil dragons." Yin Ye said with a smile: "They will bring the best swords and shields in the village, and then they will grow up and train all the way, and finally they will cultivate peerless martial arts, enough to kill evil dragons." The dragon’s peerless martial arts will cut off the evil dragon’s head under the expectation of everyone, and then obtain the evil dragon’s wealth.”
These are the things Fang Bie tells Yin Ye as a bedtime story.
It happened a long time ago, but Yin Ye still remembers it clearly.
Because the bedtime stories Fang Bie tells are really interesting.
But the bedtime story doesn’t end here.
Yin Ye looked at Qin: "What happens next?"
"The brave man who defeats the evil dragon will sleep contentedly on a pile of gold. When he wakes up, he will find that his body has unconsciously grown scales as hard as steel, and his limbs have turned into flying wings. It has hooks and claws, and when it opens its mouth, it can pour out blazing flames.”
"He looked at the gold beneath him, and at that moment it was like looking at his most beloved beauty."
"He will only dislike the fact that the gold is not abundant and bright enough, so he will fly out of the nest and steal more gold and jewels. Those ordinary people who originally cheered and thought that the evil dragon was dead thought that the brave man was killed by the evil dragon, and the evil dragon once again He was resurrected from the dead, but not many people knew that the evil dragon in front of him was transformed into a brave man, and then he was waiting for the new generation of brave men to kill him."
Yin Ye finished telling the bedtime story and then looked at Qin in front of him.
He watched motionless, with light waves flowing in his eyes.
Qin couldn't help but laugh: "What an interesting story."
"It's very interesting." Yin Ye nodded and said, "At the beginning, he said it was a story about a brave man fighting the dragon."
"But in the end, it turned into a story about a hero turning into a dragon."
"So it is even more interesting to be able to tell this story. In fact, I am looking forward to having a good chat with him when I have time, but in fact, so far, I don't seem to have this opportunity."
Because they were originally enemies, and there was no occasion or atmosphere for a good chat.
"If you want a chance." Yin Ye looked at Qin and smiled and said, "Then there will be one soon."
Qin shook his head: "What do you mean?"
"On the duel you and Fang Bie agreed upon," Yin Ye said.
"There, you will have endless time to chat about the world."
