Chapter 942 I really want to live another five hundred years
Regarding the matter of "Heaven", Chu Xiu waited for Master Yuan Ji to leave and did not think more about it, because it was useless to think about it.
Although he knew that the key to the sky was related to traveling to other heavens, he also believed that the strange drawings were drawings that recorded the locations of other heavens, but it was useless because he could not understand them.
Ever since he discovered that the Tongtian Key could travel through the Ludu space, Chu Xiu had tried it in other places, but it turned out to be of no use.
This thing is only effective when used in areas with weak space in the Green City space.
Although he also suspected that Tianmen knew something, the gap between him and Tianmen was too huge now. Not to mention that he had no clue about investigating Tianmen, even if he had, Chu Xiu would be courting death if he went to investigate Tianmen rashly.
So since there is no progress, why bother with all these messy things? It is better to continue practicing.
Chu Xiu has already touched the threshold of the Real Fire God Refining Realm, so he has been thinking about breaking through this bottleneck during this time.
Real Fire Body Refining can make Chu Xiu comparable to a normal real fire God Refining Realm warrior. If he reaches the True Fire Divine Refining Realm, the two will be superimposed. This is a realm that even Emperor Chen Qing has not reached. Can he be as good as the Heaven and Earth Tong Xuan?
territory?
Perhaps after finishing his cultivation, he should go to Shang Tianliang for advice and see where the lower limit of the realm of heaven and earth is.
While Chu Xiu was concentrating on his cultivation, Beiyan's rumors had already changed.
In a palace in the Beiyan Palace, Xiang Long was lying on the bed, looking haggard. He had almost lost his human form and was so thin that only a layer of skin remained. He looked completely different from when Chu Xiu saw him a few months ago.
Two people.
An imperial doctor trembled beside the bed and said: "Your Majesty, your body is too weak now and you cannot use strong medicine. You can only take some warming medicine and rest peacefully."
This imperial physician was also very helpless. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell at a glance that Xiang Long might not be able to hold on for much longer, but what could he do? Could he tell Xiang Long directly, Your Majesty, you can wait for death with peace of mind?
He could cure other illnesses and injuries, but for things like longevity, he was really powerless.
"I won't take any more medicine." Xiang Long raised his hand and said.
The imperial doctor was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground, but Xiang Long waved his hand weakly and said: "Get up, it's none of your business. I know that I won't live long, you can go down."
After the imperial doctor trembled and went down, Xiang Long looked ahead with dull eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Eunuch Han next to Xiang Long said softly: "Your Majesty, if you want to be more open-minded, maybe you can rest for a while and your body will get better."
Xiang Long did not respond to Eunuch Han's comfort. After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "I don't accept it!
It took me a lifetime to build Dayan to this level, but why does that loser Ma Lu Haochang dominate the Central Plains?
When I was a child, I was still reviewing memorials, but he, Lu Haochang, was sleeping with his arms around his concubine!
If you give me Dong Qi, within ten years, I will be able to sweep the world and build a truly prosperous empire!"
Xiang Long's voice was full of unwillingness and dissatisfaction.
Some people are born with everything, but they don't cherish it.
The huge Dong Qi and the rich Central Plains are in the hands of that good-for-nothing Ma Lu Haochang. How can he swallow this sigh of relief?
"Go and call the King of Zhenbei." Xiang Long said suddenly.
There was a hint of hesitation on Eunuch Han's face, but he still followed Xiang Long's instructions and went to call the King of Zhenbei.
A quarter of an hour later, a tall middle-aged man walked into the palace.
This middle-aged man was wearing a splendid dragon robe. Not only was he tall and majestic, but he also had a masculine, handsome appearance and extraordinary momentum. In front of him, Xiang Long looked even more weak and decayed.
Xiang Long looked at the middle-aged man, and the middle-aged man looked at him, but neither of them even said a word.
After a long while, the middle-aged man couldn't help but said: "Why did you call me here? Just to let me watch you waiting to die here? I have said that after you die, I will only drink and celebrate, but I will not mourn for you.
Yes, my dear brother!"
This middle-aged man is none other than the master of the Northern Yan royal family, the person in charge of the royal worship hall, Xiang Chong, the king of Zhenbei.
Beiyan is just to the north, but Xiang Chong's title is King of Zhenbei. One can imagine his importance in the royal family of Beiyan.
The most powerful military organization of the Beiyan royal family, the Royal Enshrinement Hall, is in his hands. He is also the only one among the royal family of Xiang Long's generation who has stepped into the Real Fire God Refining Realm.
Of course, he also has another identity, that is, he is Xiang Long's younger brother, a biological brother from the same mother.
But at this moment, the look he looked at Xiang Long was filled with sarcasm, disgust, and even some hatred.
Xiang Long smiled bitterly and said, "You still hate me?"
Facing Xiang Chong, Xiang Long did not call himself "I". In front of him, Xiang Long was not an emperor, but a failed brother.
Xiang Chong sneered and said: "Hate? You killed the prince and the others for this bullshit throne. This is understandable. When our three brothers were young, the prince often bullied us.
But later on, why did you kill your eldest brother! Is a throne so important? Look at what you look like now, fighting with others, scheming against each other, and calculating in the end, decades of time are nothing but dust, is there any meaning? "
There was no expression on Xiang Long's face. He just said lightly: "You still think it was me who killed the eldest brother? I did it for the whole Dayan!
If I, Dayan, had the foundation of Dong Qi, I would rather be an idle prince, helping my elder brother with his plans, and helping him to devote himself to practicing martial arts like you after ascending to the throne.
But what was Dayan like at that time? It was surrounded by enemies on all sides and was in danger!
Dayan is not Dong Qi. Even if Dong Qi has several useless idiots one after another, Dong Qi will still be Dong Qi.
But if I, Dayan, make one mistake, I will be doomed!
Big brother is not worthy of this position, but he is unwilling to let go, so what can I do? Should I just sit back and watch big brother lead Dayan into the abyss? In that case, we will all die!"
Seeing that Xiang Chong still had contempt and hatred in his eyes, Xiang Long sighed without explaining too much.
He just said weakly: "You are right about one thing, I am about to die.
I know you hate me, but you can't possibly hate Dayan too, right?
Before I die, I have to lay out a plan. This plan can at least keep my Dayan stable for decades.
When that time comes, I can leave with more peace of mind."
Xiang Chong frowned and said: "What situation? Also, who are you planning to pass the throne to?"
Xiang Long hesitated for a moment and whispered: "Xiang Chong."
Xiang Chong wondered: "Why not Xiang Li? He is the second prince, and Dayan's ancestral motto is to put elders first.
Moreover, for so many years, Xiang Li has always thought that he is the future emperor of Yan. Everyone in the court thinks so, and many people have joined Xiang Li's command.
If you do this, do you know how much civil strife you will plunge Dayan Chaotang into?"
Having said this, Xiang Chong sneered and said: "You made Xiang Chong the prince, isn't it just because he looks like you when you were young?
You got the position incorrectly at the beginning, why, now you still want your son to break the rules of the Great Yan Ancestor?"
Xiang Long didn't pay attention to Xiang Chong's sarcasm, he just said calmly: "It is precisely because Xiang Li always thought he was the prince that I didn't want to give him the throne.
They are both my sons, and their abilities are almost the same. How can I be trivial about such a big thing because of my own preferences?
The power in Xiang Li's hands is too complicated. Over the years, I have been paying attention to him, watching him absorb all the good and bad powers, but with his strength, he cannot control these powers at all.
He believed that he was destined by fate and unscrupulously gathered these powers. You must know that the power you get now will have to be repaid when you ascend the throne in the future.
In contrast, Xiang Chong is much simpler. If this position is given to him, he will cherish it even more."
"However, the power in Xiang Chong's hands is also weaker. What can you do to ensure that he can secure this position in the future?"
"you!"
Xiang Chong was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "You actually want me to help your heir to secure this position. Are you just sick and confused?"
Xiang Long coughed and whispered: "Third brother, I know you hate me, but I know even more that you can't let Dayan go either!
Otherwise, with your strength, how could you have been willing to be mediocre and sit in the royal worship hall for so many years?"
Among the Northern Yan royal family, the most outstanding person of the young generation is undoubtedly Xiang Wu.
As for Xiang Long's generation, they are the Xiang Chong in front of them.
On the premise that Xiang Chong knew that the other party hated him deeply, he still named the other party the King of Zhenbei and handed over the most important organization such as the Royal Enshrinement Hall to the other party. That was because he knew that even if Xiang Chong hated him again, He will not do anything to him. The other party hates him, but he also cares about the Beiyan royal family. He will not do anything harmful to the Beiyan royal family.
Xiang Long said in a deep voice: "Third brother, I won't live long, but Dayan's troubles have not been solved yet.
I know you hate me, but I believe in you!
Help me stabilize Dayan, or I should say, help my Xiang family stabilize Dayan!"
Xiang Chong was silent for a moment and suddenly said: "What do you want to do?"
Hearing Xiang Chong ask this, a smile appeared on Xiang Long's face. He knew that the other party had already agreed.
“Although Dayan seems peaceful now, it is riddled with holes.
There is a powerful force like Zhenwutang that cannot be shaken off. I cannot control Chu Xiu. Although Xiang Chong has a good relationship with him, I cannot control him either.
Outside, there is a disaster in the Yan River and Lake. Da Guangming Temple is in the Yan Kingdom, but it turns out that it never considers itself a citizen of the Yan Kingdom. Those monks have no superiority and are lawless!
Further afield, although Dong Qi has a mediocre Lu Haochang, given Dong Qi's background, as long as he is replaced by a king who has some achievements, it will definitely be a nightmare for me, Dayan!
Under the internal and external troubles, Dayan is already in chaos, so I will make it more chaotic so that we can win in the chaos!"
Xiang Long stared at Xiang Chong closely and said in a deep voice: "Third brother, in the whole Dayan, I only trust you. Help my Xiang family to stabilize Dayan. When I die in the future, I will personally go down and plead guilty to the emperor brother!
