Li Tianlan quietly looked at the old man who stepped into the lonely mountain.
His eyes were a little dazed.
His world was quiet.
The surface of the lake is full of exploding water, the water is rolling, the waves are rising, and large areas of the lake are turbulent and undulating, like a tsunami set off in a violent storm.
But there was no sound in Li Tianlan's ears.
The world is inherently quiet.
He could only hear the dissipation of clouds and mist, which was silent but extremely pleasant.
The old man went up Gushan, and without stopping, he stepped directly into Qingyun Mountain, and walked all the way up through the mountains and seas of flowers, heading straight for Li Tianlan.
The clouds and fog on Qingyun Mountain completely dissipated.
Li Tianlan, who was in an invincible state but equivalent to having no force, began to relax.
This feels very comfortable.
His realm finally began to decline when the clouds and mist completely disappeared.
Invincible state, half-step invincibility, thunder peak, fire peak, ice congealing peak, Qi control state.
He kept falling back, and finally withdrew from the Qi Control realm completely.
The old man who was very domineering when he was hiking on water walked up to Li Tianlan. He witnessed the process of Li Tianlan's aura going from strength to strength. Most of the time, the old man seemed very indifferent and his wise eyes were a bit complicated.
Li Tianlan laughed.
His aura was weakened, but his demeanor was not weakened by half. At this moment, his whole body seemed to be shining, and every move was flawless, exuding a dazzling and dazzling charm.
It wasn't until this moment that Li Tianlan was sure that he had truly received a new life.
So he will laugh.
But if today is the new life, then what did he gain in the previous nineteen years?
He has the twin veins of wind and thunder. He was once invincible. He was the genius of Central Continent.
But now, he is just an ordinary person with wind and thunder veins.
How inconsistent this sentence is, I am afraid only those who truly understand martial arts will understand.
Li Tianlan was in a state of confusion, and even the excitement of seeing the old man became much more suppressed.
"grandfather."
he shouted softly.
When Master Wuwei disappeared from heaven and earth, the one who appeared here was none other than Li Honghe who should not have appeared.
Li Honghe's face was rosy and he was full of energy. After the border battle, he seemed to be more than ten years younger. Looking at his grandson who was already famous in the dark world at a young age, he smiled with satisfaction: "What did you do in the East Island?"
It's good. How is it? How do you feel now?"
Li Tianlan's heart gradually sank, until it reached the bottom.
Autumn has just arrived, and the weather is still very hot. It is noon, but Li Tianlan feels cold all over.
Because Li Honghe's current state is really too abnormal.
Li Shi participated in the border battle on the fifth day. Li Tianlan had already heard about it when he was still on the East Island. However, the news coming from afar was naturally vague. Without being there personally, no one knew what the consequences of that series of actions were.
impact and consequences.
But it's different now.
Li Honghe appeared directly in front of him, clearly visible at a glance.
This kind of Li Honghe is the most unfamiliar to Li Tianlan. No matter in spirit or appearance, Li Honghe now is completely different from before.
Li Tianlan knew very well what state Li Honghe was in before. He was nearly eighty years old, and his physical strength was declining uncontrollably. He could only barely maintain the invincible state, and it was even difficult for him to exert his full strength in the invincible state.
But now Li Honghe is full of energy, and his powerful aura is almost coming out of his body, making people feel awe at a glance. Li Honghe in this state gives Li Tianlan even more feeling than when he was a child when Li Honghe was at his peak.
.
Li Tianlan's face looked a little pale.
He knew exactly what this situation meant.
The so-called powerful aura coming out of Li Honghe's body was a sign that the power in Li Honghe's body was completely out of control.
"Did you forcefully return to your peak condition?"
Li Tianlan tried hard not to let his voice tremble.
He was melancholy about the demise of Master Wuwei, but facing Li Honghe in this state, he felt a little helpless, even desperate.
"It's no big deal."
Li Honghe smiled very openly: "I am willing to do so."
"Willingly?!"
Li Tianlan suddenly raised his voice, and his laughter was a little cold: "For Zhongzhou? For the border?"
"Also for Mr. Li."
Li Honghe looked at his grandson with a calm tone, and he could clearly feel the indifference and stubbornness deep in Li Tianlan's eyes.
"rest assured."
Li Honghe patted Li Tianlan on the shoulder: "I know my body well. Although I am not optimistic, it will be fine if it lasts for a few years. It may not turn around by then. Who can say clearly what will happen in a few years?
You, on the other hand, can you accept it after your foundation has been completely destroyed and your foundation has been completely shattered?"
Li Tianlan was full of anger and resentment, but what showed on the outside was ice-cold indifference.
He suppressed the worry and even panic in his heart, breathed steadily, and said calmly: "It's just starting over."
Li Honghe's eyes were as gentle as before, and he said softly: "But this is the second time."
"So it will definitely be faster than the first time."
Li Tianlan's voice was firm and persistent.
Li Honghe nodded, took out a cigarette and lit it, and stopped talking.
"Why come here?"
Li Tianlan was silent for a while and then suddenly asked.
"I'm here to take care of the bald guy."
Li Honghe took a deep drag on his cigarette, his eyes a little sad: "I didn't expect it was a step too late. I'm afraid this guy doesn't want to see me in the end, right?"
Master Wuwei, who was famous all over Zhongzhou, turned out to be bald when Li Honghe came to his mouth.
Li Tianlan was also a little sad.
Because Master Wuwei is no longer bald in the end.
Disappearing in the sky and earth together with his figure, was his long hair as pale as frost and snow.
Li Tianlan sat down.
Li Honghe is on his left.
To his right is the place where Master Wuwei died.
There was only a piece of rock facing the mountains and rivers, no ashes, clean.
"You must have been very good friends once, right?"
Li Tianlan asked in a low voice.
Li Honghe just nodded silently and said nothing more.
Master Wuwei has many secrets, and there are also many secrets between him and Li.
But everything has passed.
The master has died, and his past, his secrets, and his friendship with Mr. Li have all become stories.
story.
It’s okay if you don’t listen.
"The mountains and rivers here are clean and suitable for retirement. I like it very much."
Li Honghe looked at the landscape in front of him in a daze and said softly.
He looked at the dazzling Li Tianlan sitting next to him and said with a smile: "How about the Li family takes root here in the future? You are in Huating, so you are closer to here."
Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows in surprise, not sure what Li Honghe meant for a moment.
"here?"
"right here."
Li Honghe was sitting on a flat rock, with his back against the green mountains and his face towards the green water. His figure was very small between heaven and earth, but he exuded a kind of strength and majesty that Li Tianlan had never seen before.
Li Tianlan was a little excited.
He confirmed what Li Honghe meant. Grandpa wanted all the Li family to leave the camp in the primitive forest and come to the Qingyun Mountain with beautiful mountains and clear waters.
Did Li and Zhongzhou reach some new agreement during his 'death'?
"Grandpa, are we free? You and Zhongzhou..."
Li Tianlan's tone was filled with undisguised excitement.
"Don't mention Middle-earth."
Li Honghe shook his head: "From now on, Mr. Li will only live for Mr. Li."
He glanced at Li Tianlan and said with a smile: "Of course, you are different. I am old and you are still young. You must become the God of War in Central Continent in the future. This is the honor that the Li family should have."
Li Tianlan was still excited, but his brows were already furrowed.
Grandpa’s intention is to go against Zhongzhou’s will and forcibly move the Li family to Qingyun Mountain?
He thought for a moment and said, "I'm just afraid that Zhongzhou will find some reason to not let us..."
"reason?"
Li Honghe laughed, and the look between his brows became more majestic: "They have been wanting me to go back to Youzhou to cultivate for these years. Now I take the initiative to step out. If I don't go back to Youzhou, can't I cultivate in Lin'an? And the so-called reason
, If I listen, that’s the reason. If I don’t listen, that’s nonsense. At this stage, if I don’t let them speak, they don’t dare to speak.”
Li Honghe's tone was calm and confident, vaguely seeming to have returned to the majestic and domineering nature he had when he was the war god who protected the country in Zhongzhou: "I like this place. This place belongs to me. From now on, the Li family will only live for the Li family."
Li Tianlan was in agitated mood, but his eyes gradually became gloomy.
He understood what grandpa meant.
Li Honghe's current condition is extremely bad, but at the same time he is extremely powerful. The power in his body has been completely unbalanced. In the following time, his body will gradually weaken, but his power will become stronger and stronger, until his power grows to his level.
When the limit of what the body can hold is reached, Li Honghe's entire body will be completely blown to pieces.
But this process does not happen in a day, but requires a relatively slow process. In this process, Li Honghe will become weaker and stronger, and the end of this road is death.
There is only death.
No one wanted to provoke Li Honghe in this state, and naturally they did not dare to touch Mr. Li.
Because Li Honghe was bound to die, such provocation was completely unnecessary.
As long as Li Honghe is still alive, and he only lives for the Li family and occupies Gushan, no one in the entire Central Continent will talk nonsense.
But what if grandpa can’t support it anymore?
Li Tianlan's palms were trembling slightly. He didn't know how long this process would take, but he knew very well that this process would not be short, but it would definitely not be too long. At least during this time, it would be difficult for him to start from scratch and reach the invincible state.
.
When the time comes, once grandpa cannot hold on any longer and becomes invincible, Li will face the shadows and fangs of countless enemies inside and outside Central Continent without the power to intimidate him.
Li Tianlan clenched his fist tightly with a determined look in his eyes.
"Grow up quickly."
Li Honghe did not look at Li Tianlan. He looked at the West Lake in his sight and sighed softly: "Now that I have come to Gushan, as long as I don't die, there won't be many people who dare to take your chances. The next period of time should be your most important time."
It’s a safe time, please work hard, Li will still rely on you in the future.”
"Grandpa, don't worry."
Li Tianlan's tone was calm.
He rarely said such words, but every time he reassured Li Honghe, Li Honghe would really feel relieved.
Under the bright and hot sunshine, the old man laughed softly. He looked at Li Tianlan kindly and suddenly asked: "How do you evaluate me?"
Li Tianlan was stunned.
"You are my grandfather."
He was stunned for a moment, then said seriously.
This is his assessment.
There is no evaluation, but it is still evaluation.
Li Honghe remained calm and said with a smile: "In my life, I have not done many right things and many wrong things. But many mistakes can be made up for in the end with hard work, but some mistakes can no longer be made today."
To make up for it, we can only make mistakes. Tianlan, the thing I am most proud of is that I have the best grandson, but the most regretful thing is also the same."
"If, I mean if I can give you a chance to make a new choice, you don't have to think about the Li family anymore, and you don't have to think about responsibility. If you go down the mountain now, you can be an ordinary person, or go to
In the Palace of Reincarnation, staying and flying together with Mr. Qin, or having other choices, under such circumstances, are you still willing to choose to carry Li's past?"
Li Tianlan was silent for a long time.
Li Honghe said what if.
But there are no ifs in life.
He said calmly: "I have no chance."
"Now you have."
Li Honghe looked at Li Tianlan: "You can choose to give up your responsibilities, and I won't blame you."
"Ah..."
Li Tianlan looked at the distant sky, his voice was steady and without any hesitation: "The thing I am most proud of is that I have the greatest grandfather. This is true in my heart, and it is also true in Zhongzhou."
This was his answer.
Li Honghe is great in his heart because of family ties.
Greatness in Middle-earth is due to glory.
The honor he is most proud of.
Li Honghe laughed.
His smile was not joyful, but rather melancholy.
"So...we can only make mistakes."
He looked at Li Tianlan and said softly.
"Not long after you left, Li Huacheng went to the camp once. I asked the deceased to follow him, and now he should be one of his personal guards. When you return to Huating, you two will meet. He has something to give to you.
When you are free, you can take your things to the Dongcheng Family."
Li Honghe said.
Li Tianlan's heart moved. He wanted to ask about the Dongcheng family and Dongcheng Ru, but when the words came to his lips, he still didn't speak and just nodded.
He already knew the news that Li Guansheng left the camp with the leader of the academic faction, but when he mentioned this matter, Li Tianlan said another thing: "I made an agreement with Zhuang Huayang. After the decisive battle on Changdao, I can mobilize three Li family members."
Veteran, I want..."
"I'll make the arrangements."
Li Honghe looked at Li Tianlan with a smile, his smile was very quiet.
Li Tianlan's body trembled slightly. Grandpa did not allow himself to be named and directly said that he would arrange it. This cover-up directly touched on a question that he had always wanted to ask but did not dare to ask.
The fifth day of the decisive battle at Long Island.
The five major forces jointly invaded the borders of Central Continent.
The Li family, which has long since lost its peak, is facing the five major forces. How many people are left now?
"How many more...do we have?"
Li Tianlan was silent for a long time before he asked in a hoarse voice.
"Count me in, sixty-three."
Li Honghe did not hesitate and directly gave an accurate number: "Ten of them were seriously injured and have lost their combat effectiveness."
Li Tianlan's body shook for a moment, and then he stood there with an expressionless face.
Of the sixty-three people, ten lost their combat effectiveness. After giving him three, Li had only fifty people left.
And when he left the border camp a few months ago, there were more than a hundred veterans of the Li family in the camp!
They said that any of the veterans of the Li family who could survive to this day would be enough to become a general!
In the border battle, more than half of the Li family was lost!
Li Tianlan took a deep breath and said calmly: "I understand."
He turned and looked towards the top of the mountain.
In the direction of the top of the mountain, Qingyun Temple no longer exists, and Li Tianlan can't see the silver light hidden among the flowers.
"There is another fierce soldier on the top of the mountain. It is the Qin Shi Mingyue of the South American Chiang Kai-shek. The Human Emperor is broken, but it is not a loss with the Qin Shi Mingyue to make up for it. But now that the fierce soldier has entered the time of accumulating energy, let's release it first.
Be here."
Li Tianlan said.
Li Honghe looked at Li Tianlan's arm.
In his hand he held a scarlet broad-bladed sword.
The sword of the ancestor, the sword is called Heavenly Punishment.
Li Honghe was not surprised. He had seen Lin Fengting and this sword as early as the border battle.
"knew."
Li Honghe nodded and said.
"gone."
Li Tianlan took a deep look at the old man in front of him, and he understood the purpose of the old man appearing here today.
He came to Qingyun Mountain from a border camp to retire in such a high-profile manner, saying that he was living for the Li family. In fact, the more important thing was to protect himself.
As my grandfather continues to grow stronger, my own safety is guaranteed.
As for the future, what will happen when grandpa can't hold on anymore and he has never been invincible?
It's not that Grandpa couldn't think of this problem, but he wasn't qualified to think about it.
For so many years, the Li family has never had a future.
The so-called future can only be discussed in the future.
Li Tianlan said no more words of concern, everything was already doomed.
It is destined to be meaningless.
He knelt down in front of Li Honghe, kowtowed heavily several times, then straightened up and went straight down the mountain.
Li Honghe watched Li Tianlan leave with obvious relief in his eyes.
Today's meeting was not part of his plan.
Li Tianlan's identity was exposed so quickly, which was not part of his plan.
When the general trend turns upside down, too many surprises occur.
But Li Honghe saw Qin Weibai's shadow in the general trend.
So he acquiesced to these accidents.
There is no other reason.
Because his instinct told him that that perfect and dreamy woman felt unreal.
Worth entrusting.
The most rare thing in the world is worth it.
The old man looked at Li Tianlan's back calmly.
further and further.
Lopsided.
Life is long and the sky is big. There will be shadows and lights in your life.
The old man slowly turned around and walked towards the top of the mountain.
An old man and a young man, grandfather and grandson, are going in completely opposite directions.
It's like their own destiny.
The young man is reborn in nirvana.
The old man will be dead for the rest of his life.
