It was late at night, and master and apprentice Yunjing communicated with Deng Changchun for a long time before saying goodbye and leaving.
Yun Jing still carried the box he had brought with him, but it was empty. Li Qiu was holding a book in his hand.
Walking on the street, Li Qiu paused and looked back at Master Deng's residence. His expression was complicated, sometimes happy, sometimes slightly frowning.
"What is master struggling with?" Yunjing asked curiously.
Li Qiu pondered: "Jing'er, don't you think Master's attitude towards us is strange?"
"It's indeed a bit strange." Yunjing recalled his previous interactions with Deng Changchun and nodded.
Li Qiu said: "Yes, it's really strange. It's so difficult for ordinary people to meet the Master. Even if His Majesty wants to meet, he has to say hello in advance. But before us, even though we had official business, the Master's attitude was too friendly. Not only
We were invited to drink tea and have been together for so long. If we hadn't taken the initiative to say goodbye, the Master didn't seem to have any intention of expelling the guests, and..."
After saying this, Li Qiu paused, looked at the book in his hand, and said with surprise: "Moreover, Master actually gave us a book, a book that Master personally annotated!"
Li Qiu really couldn't understand Master Deng's attitude. If it was normal to meet him for official duties, when did he become so friendly to outsiders like his master and apprentice? He had been communicating with Yan Yuese for so long, and he had given a book before leaving.
.
A book that the Master personally annotated is a priceless treasure for scholars. The Master just gave it to me, especially since he seemed to want to give two more copies. Finally, he said that he would go and sit there more if he had time...
This is too strange. It’s neither a relative nor a relationship, so what? Besides, there is nothing in myself worthy of being coveted by someone like the Master.
Yun Jing thought for a while and said: "Master, there is no need to worry. Maybe everyone in the world has misunderstood the Master. After all, not many people have the opportunity to see the Master, so they think that the Master is cold and unkind. In fact, the Master exists like that."
, are you usually so approachable and like to support your juniors?”
"Perhaps as you said, Jing'er, people usually misunderstand Master," Li Qiu said hesitantly.
To be honest, Yunjing couldn't understand Deng Changchun's attitude. After all, he was not Liu Neng. He didn't have the connections of the eldest princess, so how could he have such a good attitude?
There must be a reason for this, but I don't know exactly why, and it's embarrassing to ask about this kind of thing face to face.
No longer thinking about this, Yun Jing said: "Master, instead of worrying about Master's attitude, I am more curious about why Master said that before."
"Master said so many things before, Jing'er, what words did you say?" Li Qiu asked.
Yun Jing said with a strange expression: "Master, it was the master who mentioned the current war before. He said that all the armies should just let go and do whatever they want. This is worth considering."
"Indeed, Master seems to be sending us a signal. As long as we can win the battle, we can do whatever we want without worrying about future worries." Li Qiu suddenly frowned and said, puzzled.
Yun Jing nodded and said, "Yeah, I just thought about it, why is the question?"
No, why? Li Qiu couldn't figure it out.
Now the Dali Dynasty is facing the three northern kingdoms at the same time. Although it is mainly targeting the Dajiang Dynasty, the three northern kingdoms are obviously in alliance, and Dali is at an absolute disadvantage.
Not talking about the military, the numerous mythical realms in the three northern countries alone is a topic that cannot be avoided. Now, in the Dali Dynasty, there are only three masters in the mythical realm.
With such a huge disparity, why did Master Deng tell Li Qiu and others not to worry about the future and just go ahead and do whatever they want?
I can't figure it out, I can't understand it.
Master Yunjing and his apprentice had no idea that Liu Neng had quietly set foot in Xiaoyao, otherwise they wouldn't be so entangled.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Qiu said: "Is it because of that book about killing gods?"
"It's not possible, Master. You must know that distant water cannot quench near thirst. The battle formation method in that book is indeed the existence of the mythical realm that can confront head-on and even win in battle. But the problem is that you want to train an army.
It will take at least a year to reach that level. Judging from the current situation, when such an army is well trained, the war will probably be over. Master can say such things, but this is probably not the reason why." Yun Jing shook his head.
Yunjing had read the contents of the Book of Killing God before and knew the details in it clearly. It would take at least 100,000 people to form an army to deal with the mythical realm. In other words, if the book fell into the hands of ordinary people and even the world,
It's useless in human hands. After all, where can you find 100,000 people?
Moreover, it cannot be done in a day or two to train 100,000 people into one body. It takes years as a unit.
Here I have to mention the amazing talent and brilliance of the Dajiang Dynasty mythical person in the book. The mythical realm is turned upside down with thoughts. No matter how many people below this level are, how can they dare to fight and win?
Kill it? The most likely possibility is that someone slapped it down before you were ready and destroyed it.
However, the mythical master of the Dajiang Dynasty has already considered this. Once the Killing God Army becomes familiar with the drill, the leading figure will use the power of the remaining 100,000 people to elevate his thinking and senses to the level of the mythical realm, similar to
It's a pseudo-myth, it has that kind of reaction ability, but it doesn't have the means and power of a myth.
In this way, when facing the Mythical Realm, the leading personnel in the army with such responsiveness are not afraid of the Mythic Realm's sneak attack, because he can instantly mobilize the strength of the remaining 100,000 people to respond, which means that he can kill
Once the Divine Army Formation has been trained to a certain extent, the army is actually integrated in a sense, and its response capabilities and combat effectiveness are truly comparable to those of the Mythical Realm!
This is the terrifying thing about the God-killing Army Formation. If it is just a combination of pure strength and a large number of people, it will be meaningless to have more people than in the mythical realm.
Yunjing couldn't help but admire Dajiang Shinhwa, the real person who left the book. He found a new way and completely subverted the ancient thinking. The world is not eternal, everything is constantly changing, and the things left by the ancient and powerful existence may not be as good as today.
What is created by man is stronger, and the mythical true person of Dajiang Dynasty undoubtedly achieved this, and it was subversive.
It's a pity that he died too early, and he worked so hard to leave this book as his final song. If he had been given another hundred years to live, Yun Jing would have doubted whether he could create something to deal with the legendary Xiaoyao Realm...
Li Qiu also thought of this at this time. As Yun Jing said, water from afar cannot quench the thirst of the near. The God-killing Army Formation is as good as the myth. That is a matter for the future and has no impact on the current battle situation.
So why on earth did Master Deng and the others just go ahead and do whatever they wanted without worrying about the future?
"Forget it, we don't have to worry so much. Since the master said such things, he must have something to stand for. There is no need for the master to lie to us. We just listen to the master." Li Qiu shook his head and decided not to worry about this.
Yunjing didn't think so much anymore. He was just a small person, so it was useless to think so much.
Then Li Qiu's eyes lit up, and his fighting spirit rose: "Since Master has said that, we can let go and do what we want. We looked forward and backward before this, but now we don't have so many worries. When General Yang and the others are taken out, I will
Go find the commander, it’s time to end this war that has lasted for many years!”
Yun Jing's heart froze, realizing that the war that had lasted for many years due to Master Chen's murder was about to usher in the decisive moment.
With Master Deng's endorsement, Li Qiu and the others could completely ignore the unsolvable problem of the enemy's mythical realm and just treat the war as a normal war.
But what does Master Deng rely on? What confidence does Dali have?
Yunjing doesn't have a God's perspective, and even now I couldn't think of Liu being able to set foot in the Happy Realm.
Xiaoyao is a legend. No one can confirm whether it exists or not. How could he possibly think of this...
Having said this, Li Qiu looked at Yun Jing and said: "Jing'er, my teacher will be actively participating in the challenge. I don't have much time to accompany you. I have two ideas about your next arrangements. I want to hear what you think."
"Master, please speak"
"This is what I want to do as a teacher. Firstly, I will arrange you to join an army for training. With Master Deng's guarantee, now that the decisive battle is imminent, you can join the army for training. Although you do not have an official position now, you will still be able to serve in the army after the war.
My son, you have added a lot of color to your resume, but fighting on the battlefield without a sword is extremely dangerous. Tens of thousands and hundreds of thousands of troops are fighting, and no one can guarantee that they can take care of you. I am afraid that you will be killed on the battlefield at a young age.
Unexpectedly, of course, a young eagle needs to be tempered to spread its wings. As a teacher, I don’t want you to become a flower in the greenhouse. Even if the battlefield is extremely dangerous, you can still go through it, but you have to be mentally prepared. Secondly, before, Master Deng
He said, if you have nothing to do, you can go to him and walk around more. If you don't want to go to the battlefield, it is also a rare opportunity to study with Master Deng. Ordinary people burn incense and ask for good things that they can't get. As a teacher, I prefer you to go.
Studying with Master Deng will not keep you away from danger. In fact, Master Deng’s words and deeds will help you improve your knowledge. Of course, the specific choice depends on your own wishes." Li Qiu said his words in one breath
The idea was expressed.
In fact, whether Yunjing joins the army or goes to Master Deng's place, it is a rare opportunity. After the decisive battle, I am afraid that there will be few opportunities to join large-scale battles in the future. And with Master Deng, the opportunity is equally rare. Once the opponent leaves,
, it will be difficult to meet again.
After thinking about it, Yun Jing said: "Master, please go to the army and join the war. Master, there may be opportunities in the future, but we may never encounter this kind of war situation again in our lifetime."
"Jing'er has decided?"
"Yeah," Yun Jing nodded affirmatively.
Li Qiu said: "In that case, it is decided that I will make arrangements for you. In fact, Jing'er, you have decided to go to the army. I am very happy. You have grown up. In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed. You
From being such a little kid back then, he has grown so big now.”
"I am honored to be able to study under my master in this life."
"Okay, let's not talk about this. Let's go back to the fantasy world. We have to wait for General Yang and others to come out early tomorrow morning."
"Well, Master, my disciple is offended."
So Yunjing grabbed Li Qiu's shoulders and rose into the sky, flying towards the illusion. Why wasn't he hugging his waist? That was weird, even though the two were master and apprentice...
The master and apprentice crossed the void into the center of the illusion, landed silently, and walked a short distance back to the small courtyard arranged by Yang Kaishan in the center of the illusion.
They alerted the surrounding guards before leaving, so even though they were spotted by the guards immediately upon their return, they did not make a fuss and disturb other places.
Xia Tao hadn't rested yet. When he saw Yunjing and the others coming back, he felt relieved. But did Yunjing and his disciples really go back and forth hundreds of miles in such a short time to send things back?
So he asked: "General Li, you are back, how are things going?"
"Your Highness, don't worry, the things have been delivered to Master," Li Qiu said with a smile as he cupped his hands.
Was it really delivered? How was it done? Xia Tao was very curious, but did not ask, but said: "Then... General Li, what did Master say after receiving it?"
"What exactly does your Highness want to ask? We don't know. When the time comes, Your Highness can ask the master himself," Li Qiu shook his head and said.
The Book of Death is too important, how could Li Qiu reveal it so easily, even if the other party is the second prince.
Xia Tao didn't hesitate, and he didn't have the courage to ask the Master in person. Although he was a prince, the Master was not someone he could see if he wanted to. He turned to look at the box in Yunjing's hand and said in astonishment: "Why did you bring it back again?"
Already?"
"Kong, the reason why I still carry it is to see if I can lure out people from the Dajiang Dynasty who may be hiding. Although the possibility is very small, but just in case," Li Qiu said with a smile.
Xia Tao understood and said: "General Li is still more thoughtful."
"Okay, it will be dawn soon, let's take a rest first, we have to rush tomorrow, and your highness, you have to be prepared for emergencies. As I said, although the possibility is very small, if you are careful, there will be no danger.
Wrong, and His Highness has a special status. If an emergency occurs, Your Highness may become a target," Li Qiu warned seriously.
"General Li, don't worry, I have a sense of discretion."
After a brief exchange of greetings, everyone went back to their houses to rest. The most important things had been sent to where they were supposed to go, and the next thing was easy.
Soon after dawn, the "village" in the center of the illusion became noisy. In the past, people here lived a leisurely and contented life, but today it was particularly noisy.
The people here have been trapped for at least two years, but today, they have seen the hope of seeing the light of day again. Who can still sleep?
Yang Kaishan personally came to invite Li Qiu and the others early in the morning. Although they were leaving the illusion today, they still had to eat breakfast before leaving.
While eating, Yang Kaishan said: "General Li, all those who want to leave the illusion are ready, but there are more than thirty people who have become accustomed to the life here and do not want to leave, including several military commanders.
, they have a family and a family here, and they decided to live here until they grow old.”
"This situation has been expected for a long time, so it's not surprising. It doesn't matter. They can stay here if they want to. After wasting so many years serving the country, it's time for them to take a break," Li Qiu nodded.
Yang Kaishan said in a complicated tone: "It's just that, after we leave, they are left here alone, with almost no day to see each other again, which is a bit sad."
Not everyone can come and go as freely as Yunjing in the fantasy world. It would be difficult to see each other again after leaving. It is very likely that this farewell will be an eternal farewell. After all, he is not young at all.
After eating and drinking, the group was ready to set off.
Yang Kaishan and the others said goodbye to those who decided to stay, took one last look at the place where they had lived for many years, and turned around cruelly.
At the grain drying ground in the village, all the people who were about to leave were already waiting there. There were old people and children, and the older ones all had excited eyes. They had been here for many years and had long given up the idea of going out, but now they saw
There is hope of returning home, but after so many years, is home still there?
Those children born in the local area are curious, nervous and confused. They leave home and go outside. What is it like outside?
Standing in front of the crowd, Li Qiu looked at them and said: "Everyone, we will set off to leave the illusion. You are all people who have experienced the illusion, so I won't say anything more. Please follow closely along the way.
Human footsteps, after all, there are many people. Once they disperse, everyone will know the consequences, do you understand?"
"Don't worry, General, we understand," people replied one after another.
Nodding, Li Qiu said: "In that case, let's go!"
With that said, he took the lead and headed towards the illusion. Yunjing followed with the box that was used as a bait. He observed secretly and found no abnormalities in anyone for the time being. On the contrary, many people were moved to tears because of the hope of seeing the light of day again.
Everyone here has developed superb skills through years of 'retreat' practice. After leaving the illusion and entering the world again, no one knows what kind of storm will be caused.
But no matter what, as long as it is not the hidden ambitious guy from the Dajiang Dynasty who takes them away, they will remember this kindness. This is tantamount to a life-saving grace, but they have not really left the illusion, and people have not shown it yet.
When they arrived at the edge of the illusion, the people behind them all held ropes and lined up in a long line to get ready. Yunjing took the lead and walked into the illusion at Li Qiu's signal.
As soon as you take one step forward, the whole world you see changes.
With the experience from the past, and the fact that the people in the illusion have been dealing with the illusion for many years, there were no major problems along the way. However, the illusion is mysterious and small situations still occur from time to time, but the problems are not major.
While Yunjing was leading the way, he was also secretly paying attention to everyone's every move. No one had shown anything unusual yet.
Although the chance of someone from the Dajiang Dynasty hiding such a thing is very small, Yunjing will not let down his guard because of this.
Starting from the center of the illusion, starting in the morning, they traversed nearly two hundred miles of the illusion. The speed could not be increased. It was not until the evening that Yunjing and his party completed this journey and came to the outside world. Although there were occasional minor problems during this period, they did not escape.
Big problem.
When they were about to leave the illusion, Yunjing, Li Qiu and others became highly vigilant. After leaving the illusion, unexpected situations would happen at any time.
Leaving the illusion in one fell swoop and standing on the snow outside, the people who came out of the illusion looked at the surrounding mountains, rivers and land. They were all stunned, looking greedily at everything they saw along the way.
"We're out"
"Isn't it still an illusion in a fantasy world?"
"It's not an illusion, it's really coming out. I saw that mountain and that tree before I fell into the illusion. Yes, we are coming out."
"It's finally out. I don't even remember how many years have passed..."
People murmured to themselves, and gradually they could no longer maintain their calm state of mind. Some people shed tears on the spot, some cried loudly, and some people knelt down on the snow and pressed their faces to the cold ground.
Facing this scene, Yunjing and others were also filled with sighs.
The border troops who came out were the army after all, and they didn't appear that excited, but their red eyes revealed their inner unrest.
When I was young, I left home and joined the army for decades. There has been no news for decades. Now my hair is gray. Is your home still there? Are your family members okay? How are you doing now, the partners you met and the girl you loved?
Can I see you again?
"We finally came out. It has been more than forty years. Now the mountains and rivers are still there, but we are old..." Yang Kaishan murmured as he scanned the vast world, his eyes were red and his whole body was trembling slightly.
At this moment, I don’t know who started it. With a wisp of tears, he knelt down in front of Yun Jing and the others and said in a hoarse voice: "General Li, Mr. Yun, a certain family can see the light of day again thanks to you. This great kindness will be unforgettable in the future."
Mountains of swords and seas of fire, just say hello, no matter the wind or rain, there will be no delay. If anyone has trouble with you, step over my body first!"
"Being able to see the light of day again is nothing less than a life-saving grace. No matter how much I say thank you, it's meaningless. I will definitely sacrifice my life in the future to repay him!" Another person knelt down and said loudly.
"Me too..."
One after another, those who had strayed into the illusion all expressed their thanks with gratitude.
One of them, who had a late-stage innate cultivation level, glanced around with murderous intent and said ferociously: "Whoever dares to retaliate against Master Yun, General Li, no matter where they are in the world, I will definitely take his head!"
"Count me in!"
No one has experienced the feeling of not being able to be free for decades. At this time, these people's feelings after seeing the light of day again cannot be overstated.
"Master Yun, General Li, from now on you will be the guests of my Ba Dao Sect. If you have anything to tell me, it is the duty of everyone in my Ba Dao Sect. The little girl has been away from home for many years and there has been no news. I will say goodbye now and wait for reunion with my family.
, come again to express my gratitude." Another woman stood up and said.
Master Li Qiu and his apprentice hurried to help everyone.
"I can't help it. You are all seniors. How can I give you such a great gift? I'm just taking you out along the way. You shouldn't be like this."
"Senior, please wake up. This junior deserves it. You have been away from home for many years. If you want to go home, go back. You are free now."
It took a while to appease the people. Some left their address information and couldn't wait to go home, while others planned to return to Xianyang City first before making any plans.
No accident has happened yet, but Yunjing and the others have not relaxed their vigilance. Unless they return to Xieyang City completely, they cannot be careless.
After everyone calmed down a little, Li Qiu motioned for everyone to continue their journey.
There are still hundreds of miles to go back to Xieyang City. Although I moved many times faster without the trouble of hallucinations, I still couldn't make it back to Xieyang City after dark. Everyone present was not an idle person and unanimously decided to rush on the road overnight.
Early the next morning, with rare good weather, everyone who had been traveling all night saw that when a red sun rose on the horizon, Sunset City was already in sight.
There were no accidents along the way. This situation was both expected and unexpected.
But even though they were about to return, Yunjing and the others still did not relax their vigilance. At this juncture, accidents were more likely to happen.
Then, the group of people returned to Xieyang City smoothly and nothing happened...
Of course it was a good thing that no accident happened, but on the contrary, because of this, Yunjing and the others felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, as empty as a punch on cotton. People's hearts are so contradictory.
"That's it? That's it? Tsk, I'm worried about being lonely," Yun Jing couldn't help but complain in his heart.
Facts have proved that their previous worries were unnecessary. It seems that the incident many years ago has really been lost in history.
Yunjing doesn't need to worry about the next thing. His task has been completed. He handed the empty box to the master and then separated temporarily.
Li Qiu warned Yunjing that there were still follow-up matters that needed to be dealt with, and he would arrange a place in the army for him in two days, and told him not to run around in the past few days, and to be ready for transfer orders at any time.
Yunjing naturally has no objection to this.
Standing alone on the street, Yunjing couldn't help but scratch his head and muttered: "I originally thought there was going to be a big fight, but I was a little excited, but nothing happened. What's the big deal?"
…
