Xu Cheng showed up.
Li Boxen said: "Xucheng, you can listen to me, right?"
A few days ago, when he was in the Arctic Ziwei Tianzhong, Xu Cheng once said that he could see and hear but could not think when he was in the living world. In that world, where the spiritual energy was rich, he could speak like a normal person. But then the Fengxue Sword God possessed him, and I don’t know if the situation has changed.
Li Bochen then said: "The emperor told me that you are still sane and can ask the Snow Sword God to help me. Is it true or false?"
After he said this, Xu Cheng still didn't respond. Li Boxen secretly thought that he still couldn't do it in the living world. He had to go back to that world, but it would be too troublesome.
But just as he thought of this, Xu Cheng's face suddenly became more vivid, and he said, "It's true."
Li Bochen looked slightly surprised: "Is it true? So you know everything I did after I made you into a Yin spirit!?"
Xu Cheng said: "No. When you let me out, I didn't know what you were doing. Other times, I don't know anything."
His answer was the same as what he heard in the Arctic Ziwei Tianzhong, and he was indeed not lying. Li Bochen thought for a while and said, "Then do you know why I asked you to come out?"
Xu Cheng said: "General Li, I don't know."
Li Bochen was a little surprised by his attitude. When he was in the Arctic Ziwei Tianzhong, he still seemed a little unruly, but now he has become respectful, and he doesn't know what he is planning.
But he is his dark soldier, and it is not difficult to kill him. Therefore, Li Bochen didn't bother to guess in his mind, and said: "I killed you before, but you are respectful to me now. If you are pretending, there is no need - to be honest with you, now I am going to the Demon Kingdom, and you were in the sky before." Minghui should have had contact with the Demon Kingdom, so I want to ask you something. If you don't want to help, why don't you just say so, and I will use you as a yin soldier, so that you and I can worry less."
After hearing this, Xu Cheng smiled and said: "General Li, you are looking down on me now. I used to be a spirit master, but I am still a spirit master now. I really have a grudge against you and have other motives. As for waiting until now.”
"Then I will tell the truth - because the Fengxue Sword God told me that whether I can be reincarnated as a human being depends entirely on the opportunity between me and you. If one day you become successful, I can also get some blessings. If you don't If you die by chance, then I have to follow your soul. Just because of this, not only will I not harm you, but I will also try my best to help you. You want to know about the devil world? My Fengxue Sword God used to be in the far north. Tao, let me ask it for you. General Li, what aspect do you want to know?"
What he said was impeccable. Li Bochen may not believe everything, but there is nothing to be suspicious of at the moment. He said: "Okay, Xu Cheng, I hope you are what you said. If you look forward, can you see those trees? I suspect it is the magic of the Sumeru tribe. The mountains and fields from the front to the Lanjiang River in the north are It has become completely lifeless. Now I plan to cross this mountain forest to the territory of the Demon Kingdom. I also heard that a Xumi tribe priest built a bridge on the Lanjiang River. So, how should I pass through that mountain forest? Is there any way to destroy the bridge?"
Xu Cheng said: "Wait a moment."
He was in a daze for a while, and then said: "I have already asked the Sword God."
Li Boxen said: "How do you say that?"
Xu Cheng smiled bitterly: "General Li, you must have heard the saying that one day in heaven takes one year on earth, right? The sword god lives in the heavens and is not so quick to deal with me. I think it may take a quarter of an hour or two. "
What he said may be true. Li Bochen himself went to the Ziwei Heaven in the Arctic, and time in the living world stagnated. He had to possess the Fearless Lord to synchronize time. It seems that all the secret spirits in the sky have a way to control the flow of time in their own realm... Maybe if the realm is higher in the future, they can do similar things, right?
Li Boxen said: "Okay."
I sat back on the grass slope again and looked at the sky to the north.
It was afternoon at this time, and the sun was shining on the slope and shining on the body, making people feel a little warm. Since he had to wait, many thoughts came out of Li Boxen's heart and turned into a mess in his mind. But he really didn't want to think about it and didn't dare to think about it, so he picked up a grass stem and twisted it between his fingers, and sighed softly.
Xu Cheng stood next to him and suddenly said: "Were you driven to the Demon Kingdom?"
Although he speaks very respectfully now and looks like a normal person, Li Bochen has not forgotten what he once did. It was impossible for him to have a calm chat with such a person. He said, "This has nothing to do with you."
Xu Chengdao: "It seems so. When you led people to hide in the mountains before, you let us out, and I also noticed that there was a strong man nearby. That strong man can kill the incarnation of Jian Chou Langbu... I guess it is That leader of the magic sect."
Li Bochen was silent. Xu Cheng looked at his face and said, "But why does the leader of the Shu Cult embarrass you? I also thought that when I was in Zhangcheng, Li Shengyi's counselor Li Ding was hiding in Shu Xue. Then, that person The tiger should be entrusted by Li Shengyi... No, he should be entrusted by Li Ding. But why didn't Li Ding ask him to kill you instead of just expelling you to the Demon Kingdom? "
Li Boxen said: "Before I killed you, you liked to talk. Unexpectedly, you still like to talk after becoming a ghost."
Xu Cheng smiled: "I usually stay in your sword. I can see and hear but can't think. When you let me out to do things, you just rely on instinct and live in a haze. Today you said you wanted to ask the Sword God for help. Only then did I touch the ray of true spirit it left in my body, and I can now speak and think."
"But I was a talkative and playful person when I was alive, but in the past few months I have been like a walking zombie. Of course I can't help but talk more since I have the time today. I have to wait until I finish this errand, unless you If you call me again, I will become the same as before, which is really pitiful."
"Actually, I feel that you are the only one in the world who can understand my loneliness and desolation - you have so many things hidden in your heart, but you don't dare to say anything. Thinking about it this way, it's so different from me, a lonely soul. No different than wild ghosts.”
Xu Cheng is actually only seventeen years old. He is so handsome that it is hard to be annoying at first glance. Even though Li Bochen knew in his heart that this man was a very vicious person in his life, now that he was more respectful, his dislike for him had subsided a little for a while.
After hearing his words again, I felt that something in my heart was touched - a lonely ghost. This word is now appropriate for the occasion.
But he still sneered: "Not necessarily. There must be a lot of people who died in your hands. They became lonely ghosts, and they are also lonely and desolate."
Xu Cheng sighed and said: "It seems that your current mood is indeed very different. Otherwise, a loyal and kind person like you would not speak like this to a poor person like me. Speaking of the people I killed, General Li, I said they all deserved their punishment, do you believe it or not?"
Li Boxen said: "You will never tell me that you are actually doing justice for heaven, right?"
"Not really. But I am still practicing my own way." Xu Cheng said, "You should have heard about me - I started practicing cultivation at the age of thirteen, and reached the Qi-nurturing realm at the age of fourteen - I am a real celestial being. Talented. But aren't you curious about what I was doing before I was thirteen?"
Li Bochen only snorted lowly.
Xu Cheng said: "I used to carry bags at the ferry in Yingxian County. I also have a sister, and we depend on each other. Someone has long said that I have good qualifications and should practice practice. But to practice this kind of thing, even if you just have a third-rate master, you can't do it. Do you have to stay in bed? But it’s hard for me and my sister to have two meals a day.”
"Later, my sister sold herself to Feng Yuechang, and I used the money she earned from selling herself to become a disciple. A month later, I felt Qi, so I went to join the Kongming Society. There was a kind-hearted fellow, so I borrowed the money from him. I needed some money to redeem my sister, but she was bought by a wealthy businessman from Jicheng."
"I continued to practice, and after three months I reached the realm of spiritual enlightenment and became a monk. I saved up incense for the first half of the year, and then borrowed some money from the leader to go find the wealthy businessman. But my sister was arrested again by that The merchant gave it to the local governor and governor."
"In another eight months, I will have cultivated to the state of cultivating Qi, and I will already be prominent in the meeting. The governor is secretly a member of the meeting, and I am a popular person in front of the meeting leader, so I asked him to get my sister back. But guess what, Natis gave my sister to the dakinis in this state."
"Later, with the help of the Sword God, I gradually became the leader of the Zhangcheng Assembly. I just wanted to reunite with my sister one day. To do this, I naturally had to use some people to kill some people, but none of these people were like me. Poor people. Sui Ziang and Sui Yilian, General Li, do you think they should be killed? Am I doing justice for heaven?"
Li Bochen was silent for a moment and said, "Have you never seen your sister in these years?"
Xu Cheng said: "No. How can I face her?"
Li Boxen sighed: "Then your story doesn't impress me. You did those things just to make yourself happy."
Xu Cheng smiled: "Why don't I know? I'm just saying that you and I are very similar."
Li Bochen frowned and said, "Like?"
Xu Chengdao: "Aren't you doing things just to make yourself happy? When you are in this situation, you can certainly feel that you are not doing a bad job - you can deal with so many people, not only survive and cultivate to the dragon and tiger realm, but also I have saved up all my treasures. But if it were me, I would not be forced to go to the Demon Kingdom by Lord Shang today."
"General Li, you can think about it. If you had silenced many people, your identity might still be well hidden to this day. But you are just like me. There are so many things you should do but don't do. But just for myself. I want to make myself happy, and you want to be righteous in your heart. As a result, I became a dark soldier for you to drive, and I don’t know if I will see my sister again. You stay away from your lover and go to the devil. The country has gone."
Li Bochen was silent for a while before he spoke: "Has the Fengxue Sword God not replied to you yet?"
Xu Cheng smiled, and just as he was about to speak, he froze. After waiting for a moment, he said: "The Sword God has told me what you need to know. General Li, he asked me to ask you first, do you mind being a monster?"
