Southeast of Chang'an City, Dunhuafang.
A wealthy residence.
"Uncle, Li Zexuan and Dugu Xin just returned to the city~!"
Deep in the courtyard, in an elegant room, the man in white smiled at the old man.
The old man in green clothes knelt down on the couch, brewing tea leisurely and contentedly. His posture was calm and elegant, unhurried and unhurried. After the tea soup boiled, he poured himself a cup, and then he smiled comfortably and said: "Oh ~? Looking at the look on your face Xuanji, I am afraid that Li Zexuan and the others will fail~?"
The man in white raised his hands and said: "My uncle is wise~! It is said that the Beiya Imperial Army suffered heavy losses on Sheling Mountain. Li Zexuan came back this time, probably to move reinforcements to the imperial court~!"
The old man in Tsing Yi brought the teacup to his nose and took a sip. Then he saw his eyes narrowed with contentment. After a long while, he said:
"Haha~! It's expected~! Today's young people are all newborn calves and are not afraid of tigers. It's good to be motivated, but if you don't know how high the sky is, you will definitely fall into a lot of trouble~! Xuanji, you We should also take this as a lesson~!”
"Xuanji knows, thank you uncle for your teaching~!"
After hearing the old man's endless sermons, the man in white did not show any impatience on his face. Instead, he raised his hands and said yes very seriously. After a moment, he frowned and asked tentatively:
"Uncle, it seems that you have never been optimistic about the Bei Ya Forbidden Army's siege of the Seventh Xiu Sect. Xuanji is a little confused. Is the strength of the Seventh Xiu Sect really so strong~?"
The old man in Tsing Yi glanced at the young man with a half-smile, and then said: "Strong is not necessarily the case, but how can things in this world be simply measured by the words strong and weak~? Taking advantage of the situation and taking advantage of it can be done. The weak defeats the strong~! And ah~! Although the Seventh Xiu Sect is small, there is something amazing in the sect~!"
"Xuanji was taught~! But what is that amazing thing that my uncle said~?"
The old man waved his hand and said with a smile: "Haha~! If I don't tell you now, you will know when the Seventh Repair Sect is destroyed in a few days~!"
The young man's expression changed and he asked: "Didn't my uncle still be optimistic about the Seventh Xiu Sect before~? Why do you now claim that the Seventh Xiu Sect is about to be destroyed~?"
"Haha~! You~!"
The old man put down the tea cup and sighed: "Our Majesty has always been a man who loves great achievements. This time the imperial army lost face and returned home in disgrace in front of a small Seventh Cultivator Sect. How can His Majesty not be furious~? What I said The predictions are correct, before sunset, there will definitely be a general leading at least five thousand elites out of the city~! Facing the power of the entire imperial court, the Seventh Cultivation Sect is like a mantis blocking the car, and its destruction will be a matter of time~!"
The young man nodded and said regretfully: "It's a pity that I couldn't get rid of Li Zexuan with the help of the Seventh Xiu Sect this time~! I heard before that the head of the Seventh Xiu Sect is a master at the peak of the Grand Master, but I didn't expect that I couldn't keep Li Zexuan. , it’s really annoying~!”
"Xuanji, my uncle told you before that there is no way for him to do anything with you~! In this battle between the Seven Xiu Sects, my uncle never expected them to get rid of Li Zexuan~!"
The old man first spoke earnestly and earnestly, and then he continued with a smile: "But their Seventh Xiu Sect is not completely useless~! This time, Li Zexuan led four thousand Beiya forbidden troops, but they failed to capture the Seventh Xiu Sect, and they also failed If he loses his troops and generals, His Majesty will definitely be dissatisfied with him. Once this holy favor wanes, what capital does he, Li Zexuan, have to fight against us~?"
The young man smiled and said: "What my uncle said is true. It seems that the Seventh Cultivation Sect has helped us a lot~!"
The old man said "hmm", looked at the young man and asked: "That's the truth, but we can't completely rely on outsiders~! Xuanji, uncle asked you to meet with several other people to discuss getting rid of Li Zexuan last time, you arrange it How's it going~?"
The young man suppressed his smile and said solemnly, "Uncle, don't worry, everything has been arranged. We will discuss it face to face at the Grand Hyatt Restaurant in three days~!"
The old man smiled with satisfaction and said: "Yeah~! But please don't show off~! His Majesty has been paying close attention to the aristocratic family, so don't let him find out that we are secretly dating~!"
"Xuanji understands~! You must be careful~!"
....................................................
"Xiao Xuan, why do you have to hold on by yourself~? Even though the Seventh Cultivation Sect is guarded by the Seventh Cultivation Serpent, if His Majesty sends heavy troops to attack it, it will be taken down in one fell swoop~! Why do you have to show off~? You said that if you have any good intentions, how can I, Lao Cheng, have the nerve to see your father and your mother again~!"
On Zhuque Street, Cheng Yaojin followed Li Zexuan, chattering incessantly. At this moment, Cheng Yaojin was like an old lady in her seventies, nagging endlessly.
Li Zexuan did not think Cheng Yaojin was rude, because he knew that Cheng Yaojin truly regarded him as his nephew. He touched Dabai's head, turned around and said seriously to Cheng Yaojin:
"Uncle Cheng, I don't want to cause other soldiers to die because of my own grudges~! We are all raised by our father and our mother. There is no such thing as who is noble and who is inferior, and who should die for whom~! This time, the two hundred and one soldiers on Snake Spirit Mountain The fifteen dead soldiers are the biggest mistake I, Li Zexuan, have made in my life, and the biggest guilt in my heart~!
What I owe them, I'm afraid I won't be able to pay it back in this lifetime~! People live forever, and grass and trees grow forever, and going into debt will always make people feel unhappy. I don't want to owe more debts, so I just want to solve the next problems of the Seven Repair Sect by myself~! "
Cheng Yaojin froze in place. At this moment, he thought of the brothers who had died with him in the northern and southern campaigns in his early years. Many of them had blocked swords and arrows for him. Therefore, at this moment, his heart was turbulent and extremely complicated. After half a minute silently, he patted Li Zexuan on the shoulder and sighed:
"Good boy, don't blame yourself too much~! As soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, it is indeed their regret that they did not die on the battlefield. However, obeying the emperor's orders and repaying the emperor's kindness is what we should do as ministers and soldiers. Fulfill your responsibilities~! Your Majesty will also provide them with compensation~!"
Li Zexuan shook his head and said: "Uncle Cheng, even though you have said this, I still can't get over the hurdle in my heart~! Next, I will destroy the Seven Cultivators by myself. Although I have the intention to prevent innocent soldiers from being implicated, I also have the intention to do it myself. The purpose of personally avenging those two hundred and fifteen heroic souls~! I know that Uncle Cheng is worried that something will happen to me, but you don’t have to worry, boss, I never do anything I’m not sure of~!"
Cheng Yaojin smiled and said: "Hey~! That's right~! But this time, your tone is too loud. That's a martial arts sect guarded by ferocious beasts that are comparable to great masters~!"
Li Zexuan smiled and said, "Does Uncle Cheng believe me~?"
Cheng Yaojin laughed and said: "Haha~! Fang Xuanling, Yuchi Laohei, and even His Majesty may think that you are bragging, but I believe you, Uncle Cheng~! Although you don't know the specific means and methods. You are willing to tell us, but how can we old guys guess your kid’s clever ideas~? I just watch the show at home~! But if you have anything to help, don’t do it just because you can’t save face. I’m so embarrassed to say it~!”
