He even thought that if he fell to the ground like this, he would definitely die if he fell from such a height, and he would not have to face the reality of not being able to take the adults away. Perhaps, if he died here, he could be with the adults' bones.
Hanging it on the city gate can be regarded as a kind of companionship.
However, just as he continued to fall, the shadowy figures on the city wall suddenly shook twice, and then the remaining half of the rope was hit by a stone, although the force could not shake it at all.
But it really alarmed Cui Qinghe who fell into despair.
He quickly adjusted his posture and landed on the ground, picked up the dagger, and threw it up again. This time he cut it off smoothly. He glanced at the indistinguishable figure on the city wall, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes. Although the force was
He is pitiful, but he really wants to help. It seems that there is still the last trace of warmth in this imperial city...
But at this time, he could no longer care so much. He took off his coat, wrapped the already fragile skull well, placed it on his chest like a treasure, and then rushed out quickly. He remembered that leaving
Not far from here, there is a fast-flowing river. Although I don't know where it will eventually lead, the pursuers are right behind me, so this is one of the few escape routes I have.
"Sir, I have wronged you, but I will never let you go, don't worry."
After killing many pursuers along the way, Cui Qinghe finally arrived at the river. Before jumping down, he said this to the head in his arms, and then jumped down without hesitation.
The pursuers behind him happened to arrive here at this time, and immediately fired arrows when they saw it. However, the river was really fast, and the man disappeared without even a splash after jumping in.
Seeing the arrows being mercilessly washed away, the pursuers felt helpless and frightened at the same time.
"What should we do? If he disappears like this, will we be punished?"
"How do I know? The only solution for now is to say he is dead!"
"But what should your Majesty do? Your Majesty has said that if you want to see a person alive, you will see a corpse if you die."
"Are you just telling the truth like this? Aren't you afraid of death?"
"Then what do you think we should do?"
"...We can only report it truthfully. Let's jump down and look for it now. If we say we can't find it without finding anything, His Majesty will never believe it! Instead, he will blame us for our incompetence in doing things."
"This is the only way. But the river is really fast and a bit scary. Also, I really think that man will not survive. Tell me, he knew that he would jump down and escape death, so why did he do it? Come to the Imperial City
After going around in circles and finally losing so many lives, just to take that skull away? Just a simple calculation, you will know that this is not cost-effective at all, right?"
"Yeah, why are you so stupid?"
Thinking of the young man who always attracted crowds of people when he went out in the imperial capital, the imperial guard who spoke was also speechless for a moment. How should I put this? If you want to survive, most things in this world cannot be said. You cannot say it.
…
They are also ordinary people, and they will also feel that it is a pity that such a magnificent person died just like that. However, they are soft-spoken and can't even make a splash with their words, so what's the use?
This world is so...
This bullshit world!
Cui Qinghe originally thought that five hundred years had passed and he could no longer remember the helpless depression at that time. Unexpectedly, when he recalled it now, it was still vivid in his mind and he had never forgotten it.
Changsheng's eyes were sad, and that young-looking man gave her an inexplicable sense of familiarity. They were all for the sake of their country and the people, and they were both full of talent and a red heart, but in the end, they could not escape the suspicion of a foolish emperor.
Emperor, how cold-hearted must you be to kill an innocent person with just a raise of your hand? Is the majesty of the emperor really worth such a big fight? As Butler Yan said, as an emperor, the most important thing is
Isn’t it possible to have a broad heart that can accommodate the world?
However, if Cui Qinghe and others succeeded in bringing Xiao Yanlang's skull back, Jiang Dongcheng wouldn't be like this, right?
Perhaps sensing Chang Sheng's doubts, Cui Qinghe sneered, his eyes full of sarcasm.
"Yes, I did not die. Not only did I not die, I finally succeeded in bringing the master's skull back. However, when I finally returned to Jiangdong, it was almost an empty city."
"Could it be?"
Changsheng opened his eyes wide. Could it be that Emperor Beiming was so stupid that he killed the entire people of Jiangdong for a false reputation...
"He killed half of Jiang Dong's young men. He used some unfounded excuse for treason."
"Oh, how ridiculous. There are obviously enemy countries surrounding him. There are so many enemies around, but he doesn't think about it. Instead, he swings the butcher knife at the people. Those are the people of Beiming! As the emperor of Beiming, he
, unexpectedly killed so many Beiming people unjustly! In this world, this world is so confusing between right and wrong, so indifferent to right and wrong, what is the need for it to exist?!"
The moment he shouted wildly, a faint demonic aura came from Cui Qinghe's body. Fengjin, who had been listening to the story quietly, frowned.
Demonic energy?
But this Cui Qinghe was just a mortal before, and he had no spiritual roots at all. It was even difficult to practice. How could he become a demon so easily?
At this time, Fengjin had a vague guess in his mind. But that guess was just an anecdote mentioned by the elders in the past, and it was very likely that it was made up!
Human beings are favored by heaven. Although they are weak, after embarking on the path of cultivation, they will be far less worried and laborious than spiritual beasts in the later stage.
People have seven emotions and six desires, which are difficult to eradicate. Human emotions are often the crucial element of cultivation.
So there is another saying. It is said that when a person's emotions are too grand and tragic, or he encounters a huge blow, combined with the right time, right place and right people, there is a one in ten thousand chance that he will turn into a demon - a human demon.
The scarier thing about this kind of demonic cultivator than ordinary demonic cultivators is that they can control the seven emotions and six desires, not only their own, but also those of others.
In fact, it's a bit like Changsheng's sword being filled with sorrow, but obviously Changsheng's is gentler, while the latter is more angry and has mixed emotions, making it easier to lose control and become possessed by a demon after all.
So the person in front of me is possessed by a demon?
Fengjin couldn't be sure for a moment. Just when he was about to ask, he suddenly felt that his soul was quietly touched. It was a touch from the blood. He suddenly understood that this was his father coming to save him!
And it’s very close to me!
Forcibly suppressing the joy in her heart, Fengjin stood behind Changsheng, wanting to tell her the good news, but was a little at a loss when he saw her red eyes.
Although that story was indeed very sad, it was just a story after all. Even if he felt sad and uncomfortable, it was someone else's story. Fengjin didn't understand why Changsheng would be so sad because of the stranger's situation.
