Pei Jin did not give up and continued: "Why are you doing this? You have to know that you are gambling your life. How can Ma Tiancheng tolerate it? He is quite scrupulous in Tianshui City, but as long as you go out of the sky
Shuicheng will be harmed by others, and there is nothing I can do about it. I will go to Tangcang City tomorrow, and Ma Tiancheng has become suspicious of me, so he transferred me away while preparing food and grass!"
Mr. Hu Da said: "Master Pei, don't be upset, please listen to what I have to say!"
Pei Jin said: "If you have something to say, just say it, don't beat around the bush."
"Yes!" Mr. Hu Da said: "I have long known about the imperial court's Northern Expedition, which is quite strange. Now it is confirmed that the Northern Expedition Army was stationed at the border of Dayuanzhou and has not moved northward. The emperor repeatedly made excuses to postpone the march date.
Don't you think it's strange that all kinds of demons and crooked sects in the world of immortality have come to Shangbei County one after another? Even righteous people can hardly throw their lives and blood as long as it hurts their own family, let alone
The evil devil is so crooked that he is so loyal to the emperor and patriotic? There seems to be huge benefits in flocking to him. This is doubtful. Secondly, if the war in Beiminghai goes unfavorably ahead, the Thirty-six Islands Immortal Realm will counterattack with the thunderous momentum, and only one county can win.
With so much power, why should we be an enemy? If we don’t make a plan early, our body and head will be in a different place, and we will never recover!”
Pei Jin pondered: "The thirty-six islands in the North Minghai Sea are just a group of wild people who do not obey the king. Because of the harsh climate, it is a barren land and is not taken by military strategists, so they can only survive! Now that the prosperous age is coming, the treasury is full,
The emperor's plan to expand his army, not to conquer the Western Regions and the Southern Kingdom, but to seize the North Sea of Hell, is unreasonable, but the emperor's destiny is so powerful that it is unstoppable! The Tiandu Yuan and the General's Office have jointly fought, and have now advanced 900 miles.
We have conquered a large area of territory and have not seen any signs of decline. As long as the army marches north and leaves Beihai Pass, it will be able to push forward and win. This matter has been reported for a long time, and it cannot be false. I don’t know where your news came from.
Any confirmation?"
Mr. Hu Da said: "Master Pei, it's not appropriate to argue about this matter prematurely. I came to Tianshui to talk to matchmakers. On the surface, we agreed, but in fact, we were divided. I couldn't hide it from your old eyes. If I don't hide it from you, Master Pei, Guyang Pass has already been mine."
The thing in the bag, I took this dangerous move just to prepare for a future mutiny, leaving Yang Zhengyi with no help. Master Pei, you are a veteran. Throughout the dynasties, Guyangguan was originally the center of Shangbei County. There was a famous saying
: Since ancient times, there have been outstanding people in Yangyang! In the first year of the previous dynasty, at the same time, two saints, civil and military, came out of the same place and hometown. They once advocated opening up a prosperous age and dug the North-South Grand Canal. This was an eternal achievement! However, it was not happy to establish the country, and the traces of the holy way could not be erased.
He said that in order to prevent destiny from condensing in the old land, he did not hesitate to carve out a state from Shangbei County and named it Dayuanzhou. Our descendants will never have a way out. My father worked hard all his life, but in exchange for his death as a guest.
How can I be willing to live in a foreign land?"
Mr. Hu Da finally told the truth, and he was willing to take risks. Once such words were leaked, he would be guilty of beheading, and no one could save him. After all, the civil and military saints were deeply involved.
Martial arts has come to an end, but scholars in Shilin are still strong, but they have never produced a saint. There is no first in literature, and no second in martial arts. Martial arts can be cut off, but it is difficult to cut off the top in literature, but no one dares to
Speaking of Literary Saints. There once was a scholar who accidentally obtained the classics of Literary Saints and stayed up all night to read them. He was reported by his teacher and sentenced to beheading. Although his teacher was ridiculed afterwards, he still lived well and was appreciated by others.
, I became a minor official, and my little life was enjoyable. In recent years, a group of great scholars and literati have jointly proposed to remove the holy words from the classics. People said that they were flattering, but they were trying to flatter me. Unfortunately, they were criticized and nothing happened!
"I have been waiting for you to say these words for a long time!" Unexpectedly, Pei Jin actually looked at Mr. Hu Da with admiration and said with joy: "Since you have the idea of inheriting your father's legacy, with your talent and learning, the path you can take in the future is just
Afraid of being farther away than your father, I will fight to the death to protect your life. I will wait until you return to Guyang Pass. You must have a way to save your life, otherwise you wouldn't be like this! After breakfast, you still have unfinished business.
Go and take care of things first, then follow me tomorrow and transfer to Tangcang City, I will find a way to get rid of Ma Tiancheng's pursuit."
Mr. Hu Da looked happy. He came to visit him this time. He really wanted to ask for help, but he didn't know how to ask for help. He immediately knelt down and bowed down and said, "Thank you so much, Master Pei. I can't thank you enough!"
"You don't need to thank me." Pei Jin said: "What you were worried about just now is not completely impossible. By then my long history will have come to an end. As long as you can succeed, you and I will meet one day in the future.
!”
Mr. Hu Da's heart was slightly moved. Let's not talk about Pei Jin's family. He himself was a highly accomplished knight. He wandered around the world in his early years and traveled to famous mountains and rivers all over the world. To put it into perspective, beyond the boundaries of Shangbei County, he had great prestige among the people.
, and on top of Ma Tiancheng, there are also legends left by Pei Jin among the people, which are talked about. Later, some changes occurred in the family, his brother died unfortunately, and his son was young, so he could only return to the family to preside over
Overall, this was the end of his knight's journey. He was already over fifty that year. After returning, he cultivated his mind, cultivated his character, married a wife and had children, and sought fame. In the same year, he passed the imperial examination and became an official.
This man's life is full of legends, and no one knows his specific details. Mr. Hu Da suddenly remembered the task Li Xiu gave him. If the person in front of him can bring the relationship closer, with his connections,
Are you still afraid that you won't be able to find a good seed? However, it is too hasty to mention this matter at the moment. He decided to wait until he is on his way to Tangcang City tomorrow to find an opportunity to test his tone.
Afterwards, the two had breakfast together and chatted casually about common things. They had a great time! After the meal, Mr. Hu Da left the Changshi Mansion and walked on the street. Suddenly he saw a familiar figure appearing in a teahouse in front of him.
Mr. Li Zhong, Li Xiu's servant, looked around vaguely and walked over casually.
The old servant Li Zhong paid the bill in advance and left, leading him to an alley, where they met each other.
"Master knows that you are about to face a great disaster, and it cannot be resolved by Pei Jin." said the old servant Li Zhong.
Mr. Hu Da was shocked. The young Li Xiu seemed to be omnipotent. Every move he made was in his calculations. However, he did not feel uncomfortable. Li Xiu was not only superior but also extremely powerful.
The strong man, and his biggest backer, quickly said: "I have calculated that in Tianshui City, Ma Tiancheng does not dare to do anything to Pei Jin. I will go with Pei Jin and make sure there is no mistake."
The old servant Li Zhongdao said: "We do extraordinary things at extraordinary times. As long as the gods and ghosts are not aware of it, even the King of Heaven and I will kill him without fail. At this time, the people of Sanshan must rely on Ma Tiancheng more and more to be able to kill him."
Occupying great righteousness will make things more convenient. Although Pei Jin has a family, no accident can happen at this time. This person will be of great use if he is retained."
Mr. Hu Da's face jumped and he said: "Even so, isn't my life at risk?"
"You go out of the city alone. When necessary, you will have someone to help you." The old servant Li Zhong then reminded: "Master said, you can just manage Guyangguan by yourself, close your hidden lines, endure the humiliation, and grow stronger
, there is no need to stretch your hands too far for the time being, the most important thing is to lay down a solid foundation. You are still young, too much is too little, and you don’t have to worry about being useless in the future."
"I understand!" Mr. Hu Da said clearly. He himself had already asked Ban Hu to give up the secret line in Tianshui City. When his old servant Li Zhong said this, he suppressed the idea of testing Pei's entrance.
, Favors must always be repaid, and they must be used on the edge to stay royal! Since I have someone to help me, there is no need to trouble Pei Jin anymore.
"Without further delay, you leave now!" Old servant Li Zhong urged.
Mr. Hu Da chose to believe in Li Xiu's ability and did not go back to Chang Shi's Mansion to say goodbye. If he went back to meet Pei Jin, he was really afraid that it would be difficult to convince the old man and he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to.
Mr. Hu Da returned to the inn and hastily packed his luggage. He only had Ban Hu and eight elite disciples from Qingyang Mountain with him. The hidden secrets in Tianshui City had been reduced to pieces. There was no need to bring them all with him, but they would attract attention.
!
Mr. Hu Da had just left the city, and the spies immediately reported back to the Chang Shi Mansion. Pei Jin was furious when he heard this, but then he thought about it and felt something was wrong. He had just agreed upon it, so why did he leave the city alone now? Isn't he afraid of death? Or is he?
Say, he is confident to deal with the three mountain monks?
At this time, Pei Jin has a strong interest in Mr. Hu Da. If this man really has extraordinary means, it is not impossible for him to cooperate with him in the future and secretly provide resources to make him powerful.
Pei Jin ordered that anyone who came to see him would be ignored. Even if Ma Tiancheng came in person, he would have his own excuse, telling him that he would leave for Tangcang City on time tomorrow morning. And he himself summoned two people hiding in Changshi.
The masters of the government accompanied him, and they changed their clothes, went out from another city gate, turned around, and followed him!
Most of the ancient courtyards in civilian areas are dilapidated buildings that have not been repaired for a long time, but this is the liveliest place in Tianshui City. Early in the morning, people are busy making ends meet, washing and washing, and there are sounds of children crying and women urging,
There are also the sounds of dogs barking, husbands hurriedly going out to work, and being busy, a melody that has never changed in the mortal world.
In an abandoned ancient courtyard, Li Xiu closed his eyes and stood at the door, silent for a long time.
"What are you thinking about?" the wizened old man came up behind him and asked.
Li Xiu didn't make a sound.
The wizened old man felt strange and pretended to close his eyes, listening to the chaotic sounds outside. With Li Xiu's help, the wizened old man's black abyss poison had been driven away. After an hour of breathing adjustment, the black abyss poison was eliminated.
The wound cut by the sword was basically healed. He knew that Li Xiu had been standing here quietly for a long time. Until he finished adjusting his breath and it was already bright, Li Xiu still didn't move. The wizened old man finally couldn't help but ask questions. Unfortunately, Li Xiu
It’s as if Xiu has never heard of it.
"Brother Dao, if all these people die because of me, is there any difference between me and the evil spirit?" Li Xiu suddenly asked.
The wizened old man had a premonition that something was going to happen, and said: "No. In essence, whether it is for selfish desires or for justice, killing is the karma of killing. There is no distinction between crime and karma. It's just that if you kill someone for justice, if the merit outweighs the fault, then
Being able to provide compensation can be regarded as mitigating the crime."
