Yan Zhen sat alone in the tent, drinking heavily and filling the altar with clear water.
Zhang Bushan said angrily: "Shi Lu is very resourceful and has made full preparations for this battle. The Kuang Beggar Clan has tens of thousands of troops all over the Central Plains. They are also powerful enemies of the True Gold Fire Hall!"
Yan Zhen sighed and said: "How can the Beggar Clan be inferior to me? I asked before who would dare to commit such a crime?"
Yan Zhenfu took a sip of the fountain of spicy memories and said: "In the past, I robbed people's camps without any effort. Now I am robbed by others and suffered such a defeat. It really teaches people to calm down and think!"
Zhang Bushan asked: "What should we do now?"
Yan Zhen said: "Teach people to patrol day and night. Don't be careless at all." Yan Zhen stood up and sighed: "Stay still for the past few days and wait and see what happens. Don't dare to act rashly on the stone road."
Zhang Bushan took the order and went out to make arrangements and give orders. Yan Zhen was pacing alone in the tent, sighing to himself that the Beggar Clan was impregnable and that it would be hard to tell the winner for a while. He even lamented that the power of Lingyun Sword Formation should not be underestimated...
morning. The morning glow seemed to cover the soft green jade in Wen Liulin with a layer of natural rouge, making it more vivid and radiant. The willow branches are still hanging down affectionately. The morning dew is crystal clear, just like the pearls and jade ornaments on the hairpin on a beautiful woman's head, reflecting the alluring luster.
Birds are singing here to their heart's content, and their voices are crisp but not chaotic, orderly but not monotonous, calling for passers-by to come here as guests.
Brocade had been waiting by the willow forest yesterday evening, waiting for the man who was very close to Bodhi Courtyard, waiting for the passer-by named Yuntai.
Now she is just a village girl who raises silkworms and weaves in Huansha Village. The world is vast and the world is thousands of miles away. To her, she is really too small. But Jin Zhi has an unswerving infatuation and persistence. She hopes that the person who once saved her life and gave her a burning love can stay with him forever, even if he doesn't know everything about him now, as long as he He made a promise, and she was willing to wait for him throughout her life.
This morning, the brocade went to Wenliu Forest again. She thought to herself, will he come back today? Why didn't he come last night? "Zhijin kept wandering by the Wenliu Forest alone.
The setting sun is infinite, and dusk comes quietly. Wen Liulin is bathing in the last few rays of the sunset.
Brocade sat by the river and stared at the water flowing gently by. Brocade slowly got up again and walked slowly by the river.
Suddenly, footsteps came from the willow forest. Jin Zhi stared at Liu Lin in surprise. She also took a few hurried steps towards the willow forest. She thought that at this moment, the person she had been thinking about would be the cloud platform she had been thinking about so much.
It's him, it's really him, he's really here.
Zhijin was overjoyed, Yuntai stood by the willow forest, looking at Zhijin with unusual gentleness.
After a day of training, Yan Zhen had already recovered from the fatigue of fighting with the beggar gang. When the wine came to his lips late at night, he finally remembered the agreement he had made with Zhijin. In order to unify the world, all he could think about was becoming king and dominating, and the few words he had with Zhijin. The plot at that moment was just that. It was just an episode in last night's dream. It had been forgotten long ago, so why should I care about it.
And today, it is another lonely dusk. When the wine aggravated his mood, Yan Zhen thought of brocade again. He didn't know why, but when he was around Zhijin, his heart was calm and free from any murderous aura. Around Brocade, he was no longer himself.
Brocade looked at Yan Zhen, her face flushed. Greeting: "You - you're here!" Before Yan Zhen could reply, Zhijin said shyly: "You broke your appointment!"
Yan Zhen was a little embarrassed to speak for a moment, and he hesitated slowly: "I -" Yan Zhen did not say the words.
Zhijin said calmly: "If you really have something to do, go ahead and get busy. A man should focus on his career and don't waste time on the love of his children!"
Yan Zhen said hurriedly: "I'm fine. If I don't come to the appointment this time, the girl will be waiting here in vain."
Hearing this, Zhijin smiled in the spring breeze, spitting out the fragrance of orchid, and said: "Who can wait for you, a person who always breaks your promises, and doesn't even tell me what you do?"
Yan Zhen sighed: "My career is huge and very tiring."
Zhijin said: "Troubles are all self-inflicted. No matter how big the business is, it can't be bigger than the world. No matter how strong a person is, he can't stand up to the ruthless years. He will take everything away and fight for fame and fortune for the rest of his life. Who can take away anything in the end?"
Yan Zhen nodded and smiled, and said, "I didn't expect you to have such insights in Huansha Village, and I don't know what you did in the village?"
Brocade said: "I spin and weave cloth every day in Huansha Village, and the embroidered landscapes, flowers, birds and figures are all vivid, so the people in the village named me Zhijin."
Yan Zhen said: "What is the girl's real name?"
Zhijin said sadly: "What's the use of mentioning the sad past? Two years ago, I went to my cousin's house in Huansha Village to visit relatives. I didn't want to go home but something bad happened to my family. My parents died, so it would be better not to mention it. Zhijin said calmly: "Just call me Zhijin. Everyone in Huansha Village calls me that. My cousin and cousin also call me that."
While talking, the two of them walked slowly by the river again, and Zhi Jin sighed: "I heard from my cousin that yesterday there was a battle between the Beggar Clan and others at Wujiugang, and there were many casualties. You want to see the leader of the Shi Gang, but I don't know if you have ever seen him. Don't I hurt myself." Yan Zhen sighed in his heart: "There are really heavy casualties!"
Then he replied: "I have already met the leader of the Stone Gang, but I just wonder who will win in the battle at Wujiugang?"
Brocade said sincerely: "None of them will win, and all they will pay is the blood of their disciples for no reason. In the throne of King Hegemon, which is admired by thousands of people, I don't know how many innocent souls are lingering. And on the road leading to the throne of a mere seat, there are piles of It’s full of bones.”
Looking at Yan Zhen, Zhijin said again: "This Taoist ideal must be met by people in the world. The disciples of Huangtang are tired of hearing about it. It's a pity that people are still stubborn and keep fighting for it."
Looking at the flowing water playing happy and harmonious music and hurrying away, Jin Zhi said again: "Since ancient times, evil has prevailed over good, and we all hope that the Beggar Gang can repel the wolf thieves. The leader of the Stone Gang is benevolent in the world, and often helps villagers harassed by bandits. People People respect him. What’s more, it is his duty to protect the territory and the territory, and many villagers have joined this battle. The benevolent will be invincible in the world."
Yan Zhen's face turned pale after hearing Zhi Jin's words. It turned out that he had been going against Zhi Jin all along. Let me ask you, who in the past dared to count himself in person? Nowadays, those who dissatisfied with me have all given up one by one. I am afraid that the only person in the world who persuades me is Brocade. But now he is too small in front of the brocade, and he feels much cowardly. It seems that Yan Zhen already knows that what he has done is not tolerated by the justice of the world, and that he is wrong.
Seeing that Yan Zhen was indifferent for a moment, Zhijin asked, "Yuntai, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Zhen stood quietly by the river, listening to Brocade's questions before he came back to his senses.
