Fighter of the Destiny

Before leaving, she said to Chen Changsheng: Be ready to return to Beijing immediately. I believe there is someone in this world who can cure you.

As the morning light faded, Gou Hanshi and others came to the small building again and asked if they could visit.

The relationship between Lishan Sword Sect and Saintess Peak has always been close. The former Saintess is now going to another world with Su Li. It may be because of this, or it may be because he is about to leave for Beijing. Chen Changsheng is very interested. There might be no chance to see Gou Hanshi and others again, so Xu Yourong did not reject their request.

Chen Changsheng leaned on the couch, covered with a brocade quilt, and smiled at Gou Hanshi and the others.

Gou Hanshi said: Did something go wrong when breaking through the realm?

Chen Changsheng nodded first, then shook his head.

Guan Feibai became anxious and said, Is it true or not?

Chen Changsheng said: It is true that there were some problems when we broke through. It's not serious, just a little troublesome, but in the final analysis, that's not the reason.

Gou Hanshi asked: What's the reason?

Chen Changsheng glanced at Guan Feibai and said, At first you all said that my life was good, but in fact my life is really not good. I am sick.

Guan Feibai said angrily: If you are sick, treat it. As for pretending to be pitiful in front of us?

Only Old Tianji and Xu Yourong knew the current specific situation. Even Tang Sanliu and Zhexiu didn't guess at all. The monks who came to Hanshan Tianchi to participate in the Stone Cooking Conference all thought that Chen Changsheng was breaking through the realm to gather stars. At that time, they encountered some minor problems, and Gou Hanshi and others also thought so. Who could have imagined, who would dare to think that he was already dead?

Chen Changsheng smiled and said, It makes sense, so I will leave later and go back to Kyoto for medical treatment.

Will there be any trouble? Gou Hanshi looked into his eyes and asked.

Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, It's just a long journey, so there won't be any trouble.

Guan Feibai and Liang Banhu thought that they were right. Although Chen Changsheng was not very old, he was the designated successor of the state religion. Nowadays, the merger of the north and the south has become a major event. The Zhou Dynasty is at its peak. The state religion has hundreds of millions of believers in the world. Along the way, With the two giants Mao Qiuyu and Ling Haizhi on the side, there might be some trouble.

At this moment, a disciple from Nanxi Zhai came in to report that the chariot was ready, and the saint asked when to set off.

Guan Feibai speculated all night, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. He looked at him and asked: What is going on between you and Junior Sister Xu... no, and the Saint?

Chen Changsheng thought for a while and didn't know how to explain it, so he just didn't speak.

Fortunately, at this time, Tang Sanliu and Zhexiu had already packed their luggage, and the disciples from Nanxi Zhai also came to greet them, so they brushed this problem aside.

Tang Sanshiliu was about to help him, but was stopped by Ye Xiaolian, a disciple of Nanxi Zhai.

Ye Xiaolian looked at him and explained calmly and seriously: The saint has a destiny. No one is allowed to contact Dean Xiao Chen without instructions.

Tang Sanshiliu was furious and said, If I hadn't known about those rubbish things, do you think I would have tolerated it?

Ye Xiaolian didn't care what the nonsense he said was about, walked directly to the couch, carefully helped Chen Changsheng up, and sat in the chariot.

The chariot and chariot did not move, but the sword intention came with the morning wind.

Guan Bai stood on the stone platform and said to Chen Changsheng in the carriage: I'm sorry, this result was not my intention.

Chen Changsheng said: It has nothing to do with senior brother, it is purely my own problem.

Guan Bai said: But after all, it started because of me. You are the future of the state religion, and you are ten thousand times more important than me. If it affects the overall situation of the human race against the demon race because of me, I will never die.

Chen Changsheng said: I heard that senior brother has been resisting the powerful demon army in the north in the past few years. I admire you very much. I only hope to have the opportunity to fight side by side with you, but...

At this point, his mood finally became a little depressed.

There are still many things he has not done, and there are still many places he has not visited. Although he has been to the Demonic Snowfield, he has not done anything to help the soldiers and civilians there.

Guan Bai naturally didn't understand the true meaning of his words and said: There will always be a chance. We will meet again in the snowfield in the future.

Chen Changsheng nodded and said, Goodbye.

Gou Hanshi and others also stopped seeing him off and said goodbye to him.

Chen Changsheng looked at them with a calm expression, but his mood became increasingly depressed, thinking that it was very possible that he would never see them again.

Standing under the green pine trees and watching the convoy disappearing at the end of the mountain road, Gou Hanshi's expression became solemn.

Guan Feibai was a little puzzled and said: No matter how serious the injury is, no matter how troublesome the disease is, it will naturally be cured by the Pope himself after returning to Kyoto. Why should senior brother worry?

Chen Changsheng studied under Dean Shang. Dean Shang is a Taoist master. We have also seen his medical skills. He is a master. Junior Sister Xu's Holy Light Technique has been perfected for a long time. If neither of them can cure this disease, If it hurts this disease, can anyone cure it? Even if the Pope really can, why does Junior Sister Xu follow him back to Kyoto?

As Gou Hanshi talked and sorted out his analysis, he felt more and more something was wrong, and his expression became more solemn, even a little grim.

After hearing this, Guan Feibai came to his senses, looked towards the end of the mountain road, listened to the faint sound of hoofbeats, and said slightly anxiously: What should I do? Do you want to catch up and ask?

Gou Hanshi said: Since he doesn't want to tell, why bother asking?

The convoy returning south moved forward at high speed, smashing countless green leaves and fruits along the way. The mountain road was full of ruts and crushed fruit pulp and leaves.

Chen Changsheng was not in the state religion's car, but on the chariot of Saintess' Peak. The disciples of Nanxi Zhai were accompanying him, ready to form a sword formation at any time. Those gauze curtains could not block those doubtful and curious eyes. The sword can isolate those people whose eyes disturb the gauze curtain.

Just like in the Lakeside Building, the Holy Lady has decreed that no one should be allowed to contact Chen Changsheng.

Logically speaking, although Xu Yourong is a southern saint with an extremely noble status, Chen Changsheng is the future pope after all. There is no reason for anyone in the state religion to agree to such an arrangement, but I don't know if it is because of the engagement that once existed. The reason was that Saintess Peak was too tough, so neither Mao Qiuyu nor the King of Linghai raised any objections.

Of course, the most important reason is that Chen Changsheng himself did not object to this arrangement. Tang Sanliu knew the inside story and would not raise any objections. Zhe Xiu had not yet figured out the whole thing.

The five-hundred-mile Hanshan Mountain was quickly left behind as the convoy raced wildly. After exiting the mountain gate with the three characters Tianji Pavilion written on it, they soon arrived at the small town at the foot of the mountain. The people and believers in the town were kneeling on both sides of the road like a tide. There were even people in the fields, but they could not let the chariot of the saint and the future pope stay here for a moment. In the end, only some smoke and dust could be seen. picture.

The wind, snow and severe cold on the snowfield are blocked by the cold mountains. The northern wilderness is still green in summer and early autumn. You can see many fruits and new bean vines from a close distance, but if you look far away, those The greenery that represents life will quickly fade away, mixed with the wind and sand on the horizon, and gradually become desolate, looking like the wilderness of the main battlefield where humans and demons fight.

The gauze curtains fluttered, and the wind in front of the road came in, but it was not blown on his face. Chen Changsheng knew that there was some kind of formation attached to this chariot, so that it could be worthy of the identity and status of the saint, but after all, he still felt that It was a bit too extravagant. I wanted to say something, but felt it was inappropriate. When I saw the vast scenery in the distance, my mind turned to other places.

He looked at the field where there seemed to be countless cavalry hidden, and said: Yesterday Tianji watched me die with cold eyes, so...many people who are loyal to the empress will also miss me dead, right?

The armies of the Great Zhou Dynasty were all led by thirty-eight divine generals, and except for the history of guarding the Tianshu Mausoleum, all the divine generals were absolutely loyal to the Holy Queen like Xue Xingchuan and Xu Shiji.

The journey back to Kyoto from Hanshan was long, and he had to pass through many passes and important towns along the way. If the two sides really broke up, troops might attack at any time. It was not that simple for him to return to Kyoto.

Xu Yourong was injured, had not slept almost all night, and was extremely exhausted. He had been closing his eyes to rest after leaving Hanshan. At this time, hearing his emotion, he opened his eyes and looked into the distance, and said, It depends on the sky. Chance will tell Kyoto about you, and who will inform it? Will the news reach the military mansions of those divine generals before we return to Kyoto? And I don’t understand, even if you are alive, what impact will it have on the empress? Why can your presence affect her?

Chen Changsheng looked around and saw figures of Nanxi Zhai disciples everywhere among the dancing gauze. Tang Sanliu and Zhexiu were riding horses more than twenty feet in front of them. Mao Qiuyu and Linghai King were leading the way. The National Religion convoy is far behind, and this formation should be able to block the detection of spiritual consciousness.

You should have heard the rumor that the empress changed her fate against the will of heaven. He looked at Xu Yourong and said.

Xu Yourong vaguely guessed what he was going to say, raised his eyebrows and said, Do you also believe the nonsense of those ignorant people in the city and the countryside?

Chen Changsheng looked into her eyes and said, I read Wang Zhice's notes in Lingyan Pavilion.

This was a secret his teacher told him. He had never told anyone else, but he never thought of hiding it from Xu Yourong, because his blood was flowing in her body, and her blood was also flowing in his body. The so-called blood water There is nothing better than blending and trusting each other.

After a long time, he ended his story.

Xu Yourong looked at him and said, You understand what I mean. Even if the empress changed her fate against the will of heaven, she still wouldn't be as popular as the rumors in the market said.

The Holy Queen has actually ruled the human world for more than two hundred years. Although her performance in the war against demons is unsatisfactory and her methods against opponents are too cruel, her performance in domestic affairs and people's livelihood is perfect, even if she opposes The author cannot do much in this regard, but to this day, resentment towards her is still boiling inside and outside the court, and she still cannot gain the sincere respect and love of the people at the bottom who have the most simple duties. To a large extent, it is because of those Evil legends surround her, such as the most famous one.

According to legend, in order to change her fate and become the first female emperor in the human world, the Holy Queen sacrificed all her future children to the stars. In order to succeed, she even killed her first son with her own hands and successfully framed her. Gave it to the queen at the time...

I can't imagine such a terrible thing, and I won't accuse the empress with rumors, but you should know very well that the empress and the late emperor have been together for many years, and indeed there is no descendant left.

Chen Changsheng said: The Empress may not have actively committed such evil deeds as killing her son, but it is very likely that this is the price that Heaven demands from her, or the necessary condition for her to change her destiny against Heaven.

Xu Yourong said, What do you want to say?

Chen Changsheng looked at the green fields nearby and the vast desert in the distance. He was silent for a long time, and then said: My queen has changed her destiny against the will of heaven... but she has not succeeded yet.

As his words fell, the sky and the earth suddenly became dark. Clouds drifted from nowhere and covered the sun. With a thunder, it started to rain.

…

…

(It has rained in Daqing these two days, and the temperature has dropped sharply. In this midsummer, I have caught a cold and rhinitis. I had a similar experience two years ago, and I had similar emotions. When I was saving the manuscript today, something went wrong again. It took a long time. It took more than an hour to finally find this 3,000-word manuscript. I was so frightened that I was speechless, and almost angry until dawn.)
