"Haha, actually speaking, I don't have too many opinions on this war. In fact, I have always had this idea in my heart, that is, to see a real war again at the top of Chang'an City, a real enough war A thrilling war."
Li Ergou looked at the blurry figure of the army in the distance, his eyes full of expectation, "Although it is a bit inappropriate to say it, I really hope that this war can burn to Chang'an City, let me take another look .
Take another look at the murderous aura that soared into the sky, tearing away all the whiteness in the sky, and replacing it with the hideous night cover. In the world of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, the red surge spreads strange excitement! ! ! "
Li Ergou's voice became deeper and deeper, the muscles on his face were trembling, and his eyes were full of excitement.
Zhou Ruoxiao looked at Li Ergou blankly, dumbfounded for a moment. He didn't expect that such a mediocre appearance as Li Ergou actually hid such a soul.
"You have a familiar smell." Zhou Ruoxiao said, "Your soul is pursuing excitement and the baptism of blood. This should be something left in the bones of the generation that experienced the human-monster war. However, your character It’s determined that you are destined to be the one standing at the top of the city and looking at the scenery.”
Seeing Li Ergou's dumbfounded look, Zhou Ruoxiao smiled and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand. I think there are many, many people like you in Jiuzhou. You all You are those who were persecuted by the monsters in the original war, but had to accept the end of the war before you could take up arms. You can't accept this ending in your hearts, so you have always been eager to take another look at the original war. Don't worry. , I will stain this era with another layer of blood, and I will make the entire Kyushu receive the baptism of blood!"
What Zhou Ruoxiao left to Li Ergou was a grinning face, and then he disappeared.
Li Ergou stood there stunned for a long time, and then a voice suddenly came from his ears. It turned out that Zhou Ruoxiao had left him a message before leaving.
"I want to know what exactly you saw in Chang'an City. I will come to you for this answer in a long time. I hope your answer will satisfy me by then."
On this day, Li Ergou stood quietly at the top of the city for a long time. It was not until dusk that several of his friends asked him to go drink and eat meat with him before he went down to the top of the city.
After three rounds of wine and five tastes of food, his friend Dashan saw that Li Ergou was dull and asked him what nonsense he was thinking.
Li Ergou took a sip of meat, drank another glass of wine, burped and said with drunken eyes, "I was just thinking about a bullshit question. What bullshit do I see on the top of the city every day?"
…………
Qingcheng Mountain.
A simple carriage stopped at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain, and an old man and a young man got out of the carriage.
Two Qingcheng Mountain disciples who were cleaning the path up the mountain caught a glimpse of it and shouted with smiles on their faces, "Old Prince Guo is here again!"
It turned out that those who got off the carriage were Guo Nan and his son Guo Dalong.
The two of them come to Qingcheng Mountain at this time every year.
Guo Nan smiled and greeted, "Yes, come and see this year too!"
Guo Dalong on the side curled his lips and said in a low voice, "Why do you come to this place every year? The road here is long and difficult to walk, and I am exhausted!"
Guo Nan showed a trace of helplessness on his face, and could only pat his precious son's shoulder, soothe his emotions, and then walked up the mountain with his arms in his arms.
The two gatekeepers smiled and stepped forward to greet them.
A group of four people walked slowly on the rugged and narrow mountain path. The two disciples walked at the front, walking at a leisurely pace, allowing Guo Dalong to keep up.
"Prince Guo comes so punctually every year. I remember last year
It’s also this time! "A disciple said with a smile.
"Punctuality is a good habit, which means obeying the rules. Without rules, there will be no success. Those who break the rules will not end well." Guo Nan said slowly, "Existence is reasonable, and many things can be passed down since they are handed down. , then it must have its truth, why do some people want to destroy these things that make sense?"
Guo Nan's mysterious words made everyone unable to talk to each other. The two disciples could only walk silently with their heads down. This unintentional step made them take a larger step, which made Guo Dalong who was following behind complain.
These two disciples are both well-educated, and they are extremely familiar with the mountain roads of Qingcheng Mountain. Not only running and walking back and forth, but even jumping and walking back and forth, they probably won't be out of breath.
At this time, they were only halfway through, and Guo Dalong was already out of breath from exhaustion. He was holding on to a big tree on the side of the road, insisting that he sit down and take a rest.
The two disciples looked at Guo Nan and told him to make the decision.
Guo Nan waved his hand and said, "Let's sit here for a while and leave later."
After hearing this, Guo Dalong immediately sat down on the ground, rubbed here and there, and kept complaining that it hurt here and there.
Guo Nan walked to him, squatted down, and carefully used her internal energy to relieve the pain in his leg.
"There are fewer and fewer pilgrims in Qingcheng Mountain now. I remember that when the previous head was alive, every spring, there would be an endless stream of pilgrims coming and going on Qingcheng Mountain, and we could often see fellow Taoists from other sects coming. Visit. What a pity!" Guo Nan sighed sadly.
After hearing this, the two disciples knew that Prince Guo was not being sarcastic, but actually felt sorry for the situation in Qingcheng Mountain.
"Yes, in the past few years, villagers from several villages around Qingcheng Mountain would often come to Qingcheng Mountain to visit. During the Chinese New Year, they would gather together some food and stuff and send it to the mountain. Every now and then, there would be guests coming from afar to visit the mountain. .
But since last year, almost no one is willing to come to Qingcheng Mountain. Even the people in nearby villages just take their things and put them at the foot of the mountain, which can be regarded as doing their best.
Alas, it’s also my fault that our Qingcheng Mountain is too high and steep, which is why so many people are reluctant to come here. "A disciple said with emotion.
It has to be said that Guo Nan is really a distinguished guest in their Qingcheng Mountain. Every year in March of Yangchun, he brings his son to visit Qingcheng Mountain. He has never been absent for ten years.
"The mountains are high and the roads are far away, and the people's hearts are even more visible!" Guo Nan sighed and said, "If the Sanqing Taoist statues in Qingcheng Mountain were so easy to see, wouldn't everyone be able to obtain the Taoist Taoism and become immortals by lifting the clouds?"
Both disciples nodded slightly to express their approval.
At this time, Guo Dalong on the side asked in confusion, "I don't want to see those three clay statues. How can I be an immortal? Why do I have to be dragged here too?"
Guo Nan could only console him, "Be obedient. Just think of it as exercising. Walking around frequently is good for your health. Look at your body after spending all day in that brothel or tavern. What's happening to your body?" The air on Qingcheng Mountain is no fresher than that of Chang'an City..."
Guo Nan was comforted for a while, and then Guo Dalong slowly got up from the ground and continued walking.
After walking for a while, the trees on both sides of the mountain road had turned into bamboo forests. The breeze blew slowly, and under the cover of the rustling, the voices of a group of Qingcheng Mountain disciples could be heard talking from time to time.
A smile appeared on Guo Nan's face, pointing to the direction where the sound came from just now, and said to the two disciples, "Where is this place?"
After taking a look, a disciple said, "This is a competition arena, where disciples compete with each other in martial arts and exchange practice.
A place for experience. "
Guo Nan nodded and said, "This is a good place. Let's go and see how the disciples of Qingcheng Mountain are growing up now!"
The disciple smiled and said, "That will definitely not disappoint Prince Guo!"
After saying that, he led everyone along a path on the mountainside, through the bamboo forest, and came to a pavilion.
The entire pavilion is made of bamboo, with a total of three floors. There is a simple and thick plaque hanging on it, which reads "General Manager Building".
Outside the general management building, there is a large open space.
The open space is covered with flat black floor tiles. The floor tiles look extraordinary, with very complex patterns painted on the surface.
If you look carefully, you can even find that the lines are shining from time to time.
There was already a large circle of people surrounding the open space. They were all wearing green gowns, some were holding long swords, and some were holding talismans in their palms.
The atmosphere of the scene was already very tense, and the crowd surrounding them was at war with each other.
"If Senior Sister Lele hadn't gone into seclusion to practice, how dare you people be so presumptuous!"
"Hmph, you old disciples just rely on the fact that you have been a disciple for a long time and have a higher level of cultivation than us new disciples, so you have been bullying us and robbing us of the elixir resources that the sect distributes to us every month. It is really shameful!"
"Shameless people! You are really unworthy of being our senior brothers and sisters. You are not worthy of being a disciple of Qingcheng Mountain. I am so ashamed to be in the same sect with you!"
"Haha, you losers are taking the resources distributed by the sect every month, but you have not contributed at all, and your cultivation has not improved at all. Aren't you just parasites, wasting resources? You are doing this to yourself Don’t you feel ashamed? You might as well give it to us!”
"Yes, yes, senior brothers and sisters are here to help you bear this resource and improve your strength. Only in this way can you make more contributions to the sect, thereby making the sect better and allowing you to have more Good environment to grow up in!”
"Brother and sister, this is for your own good! Don't think we are bullying you!"
"Okay, okay, stop talking nonsense with them and make your own choice! Either you will obediently hand over half of the elixirs you received, or we will beat you up and steal all the elixirs from you!"
The disciples fighting on the field were divided into two sides. On one side was a young man wearing a dark blue gown.
The young man held a long sword in his arms, with a sneer of disdain on his slightly gloomy face, as if a landlord who oppressed and exploited poor peasants was feeling complacent about getting other people's hard-earned money through unfair means!
On the other side was a group of young and immature-looking boys and girls. They were all filled with indignation, but no one dared to step forward and face each other directly.
"Ah...this...this is..."
The two disciples who led Guo Nan and his son here didn't know how to smooth things over at this time, and they actually let Guo Nan see such a thing.
Although they had long heard that there were old disciples in the sect who relied on themselves to get in first and were strong, they bullied the new disciples and robbed them of their resources.
Both of them were old disciples who guarded the mountain gate. They were honest and responsible. The information they got was from some acquaintances, which was very brief.
Therefore, they did not expect that these old disciples would be so wild and wanton, and dare to rob it in broad daylight!
"The man in charge seems to be the son of the elder in charge of elixir refining in the sect. The elder in charge of the general manager's building is his father. It's no wonder they dare to do such a thing outside the general manager's building! "
The two disciples were secretly sighing in their hearts. At this moment, Guo Nan on the side also touched his beard and frowned, seeming a little displeased.
