The Book of Troubled Times

Yuxu returned with a smile, bowed to Zhao Changhe's family of three, and then returned directly to Louguantai, leaving only one sentence: "If you are free, you can come to Louguantai to have a chat. The old Taoist will sweep the couch to welcome you."

Zhao Changhe responded respectfully: "I should go of course."

Yuxu left, and there was silence in Chang'an City.

Except for Jiuyou, no one can see things more than ten miles away. But Yuxu chased him out, Qin Jiu drew his bow and shot an arrow until his shadow disappeared, and then Yuxu came back with a smile. Everyone saw this. A thought came to everyone's mind: Could it be that this arrow killed Bo Xun...

The power of gods and demons, especially the famous Bo Xun... It is probably unlikely that such a character could die with one arrow. Assuming he was shot to death, there is only one person in the world who is known to have done such a thing.

His name is Zhao Changhe.

Everyone looked at "Qin Jiu" and then at the beauty beside him. The names in their hearts were ready to be called out, but they all looked at Li Boping secretly. No one dared to shout out.

Li Bo's face was as sinking as water.

A passerby has already guessed it, how could he not guess it?

But now it's different from before with only half a stick of incense... At that time, he guessed that it was Zhao Changhe, and he could just send people to pile him to death. It didn't matter what the people thought, but what about now? Now Zhao Changhe has just broken through the imperial realm before the battle!

The imperial realm can be destroyed by the army? Want to eat shit?

Moreover, Bo'e Yuan escaped, Bo Xun's life and death were unknown, and Yu Xu had obviously taken his side. All the top powers that Li Boping could rely on in Chang'an City had disappeared. Except for Jiuyou himself, no one could attack Zhao. Long rivers pose a threat.

If people don't slap you Li Boping to death, it's because Jiuyou is behind you. Even if he removes his disguise and stands here now, Li Boping can only pretend not to recognize him, feeling extremely frustrated.

But having said that, with the current situation, can this group of people directly challenge Jiuyou...

Li Boping's heart skipped a beat and he turned to look in Jiuyou's direction.

Jiuyou still had no expression, just looking at Zhao Changhe steadily. Zhao Changhe held the Galaxy Sword tightly and looked at each other, his palms already sweating.

Can't fight.

Not to mention the question of whether the three of them are not in peak condition at this moment, whether they can beat Jiuyou... Jiuyou is not just one person - who can count how many corpse puppets she has on hand?

I don't know what Jiuyou is worried about, but he still refuses to fall out completely. Since she doesn't turn over, everyone can naturally take a break.

The atmosphere was stagnant for a moment, but Suzaku suddenly spoke: "I am here as an envoy. Can the King of Qin receive the envoy on this street?"

Everyone was stunned for a moment. Yes, you are here as an envoy. I almost thought you were cleaning up the rebels in your own capital...

The more so, the weirder people's minds become. Expelling enemy chiefs and uncovering demons, no matter where it spread, was a chivalrous act praised by people. However, it turned out that it was not the shepherd guards of Chang'an who did it, but the great Han King Zhao and the Queen Mother who came here to help them.

It’s really worth comparing things.

Li Boping knew what others were thinking, so he could only spit on his face and show an impeccable smile: "Yes, things have happened one after another, and I almost forgot. Your Majesty, please."

Zhao Changhe and Yue Hongling followed Suzaku from side to side without saying a word. Li Boping looked at him with a blank face: "Honorable Sir, what does this mean?"

Suzaku said matter-of-factly: "Oh, they are my guards."

"Isn't this 'Brother Qin' a disciple of Buddhism? Isn't this lady-in-law a loner in the world?"

"I just recruited someone with a monthly salary of one yuan." Suzaku didn't even bother to make up a decent reason and strode forward.

Zhao Changhe and Yue Hongling didn't bother to say more. In this situation, who can safely let Suzaku face Jiuyou alone? That's not completely sick!

The people gathered around Zhuque Street left the show with satisfaction. Today's show was better than it had been in the past ten years.

I heard that the purpose of Venerable Suzaku's mission is to propose marriage to Miss Li family for King Zhao...

…………

"Blind blind." Li Boping was silent along the way, and Zhuque Yue Hongling didn't want to talk to Zhao Changhe in the honor guard. Everyone was silent, and Zhao Changhe took the opportunity to find the blind man.

The blind man, who had received no response no matter how he shouted since Jiuyou showed up, responded this time with just one word: "Get out."

Zhao Changhe was also extremely embarrassed. Although the eyes and other things were half-truths and half-falsities, the deepest desire hidden in his heart could not be faked. It was a scene that he had never expected. I also wanted to test whether the blind man knew, but this time it was over, he really knew.

Why are you so strong? Outsiders can't see this kind of soul war? How come you can see it? I don't see you "falling into a dream". How can you see it?

How to communicate this time?

Is it equivalent to telling a girl that I want to have sex with you and expecting others to talk to you properly? It would be nice if I don’t beat you up. What's more, she is not an ordinary girl, she is a book spirit. In theory, she is a book. Others copy the book, but you copy the book?

Having said that, the blind man changes into a light gauze, the spring light looms, and he lies on his side and chuckles. It's so beautiful...

I used to know that the blind man was beautiful, and no matter how much I disliked her, I subconsciously used words like "goddess of the night" when describing her, but I couldn't even curse her for being unsightly against my will, which shows. But that kind of temperament doesn't make people think of desire. No matter how close the two parties are, it seems like there is an invisible Milky Way between them. I don't know how far away it is, just like a dream that does not exist at all.

But such a change of clothes and a complete change in temperament instantly made the mouth go dry, and even the original distance and indifference became a more seductive desire. When I see the serious blind man again in the future, I am afraid that the amorous feelings in the illusion will inevitably flash through my heart and I will never forget it.

Bo Xun is also from the Buddhist system, right? Why are you Buddhists always like this...

"That..." Zhao Changhe desperately searched Kuchang, looking for a cutting-edge topic, and finally found one: "Bo Xun was shot in the shoulder by an arrow from me, but he disappeared. Is he dead or not? Do you want to report it in the book of troubled times... "

The blind man didn't respond.

Zhao Changhe said: "Could it be that you don't even know whether he is dead or not?"

The blind man was furious: "Do you think I am as useless as you?"

Just be willing to speak!

Zhao Changhe immediately said: "Why don't you tell me if you know?"

"Why should I tell you whether I am dead or not? Am I your radar?" The blind man was furious: "I don't even know whether I killed someone or not. How dare you ask!"

"He's different." Zhao Changhe was sprayed like the wind in his face. Quan Dang praised him and discussed seriously: "The Sea Emperor is of high rank, but he was injured by Lao Xia so much that he didn't even recover from the imperial realm. How could he be It’s understandable that he would be shot to death. Yin Kui’s level is too common, and he is just a representative of some of Jiuyou’s rules. It is not unusual to be shot to death. However, Bo Xun’s level is both high, and he is also an unpredictable type, so he can be transformed easily. Something like that...Theoretically speaking, the devil in the human heart is eternal, and it is entirely possible that he will not die at all."

The blind man was silent for a long time, and finally did not lose his temper with him. He said calmly: "Whether you die or not is something you have to understand. There is no real eternal life in the world."

Zhao Changhe said: "Even if you are not dead, is it still seriously injured? I am thinking that once they are seriously injured, they will be like a treasure of heaven and earth. They are extremely dangerous, just like before. I suspect that Desolation was sucked by the Snow Owl. This is probably the main reason why the gods and demons did not dare to appear in the world before, let alone be targeted by you and included in the troubled times list. Once the status is broadcast by you all the time, they may tear each other apart. The bite is so hard that you can’t find the north.”

The blind man was silent for a while and then said: "Yes."

Zhao Changhe added: "I'm still thinking that in the past few months, the gods and demons have collectively appeared. I'm afraid it's not just because Lao Xia died, but also because their recovery has accelerated. When Hong Ling was in Kunlun, Bo Xun was far from reaching the goal. I think there is a reason for the current level, which was lasted for the entire era before, and suddenly returned to this level in a few months."

The blind man said lightly "Oh?"

Zhao Changhe said: "The period when Hong Ling was in Kunlun was almost the same period when we were overseas. What changes are related to their sudden and large-scale recovery? There is only one thing. Overseas, we got two pages of the Heavenly Book. When we returned to China, Lao Xia passed away. Since then, I got another page from Lao Xia, three pages in a row. At this time, I have six pages of the heavenly book in my hand, or simply in your hand... You originally had one page broadcast in heaven, and these six pages are added to seven pages. Nine pages The Book of Heaven is almost complete, and the Way of Heaven is becoming more and more complete, which is the main reason for the resurrection of gods and demons."

The blind man's tone was a bit sarcastic: "It's different when you break the barrier. You can feel the rules of heaven, right?"

"Yes, many things can be seen, as if it is deconstructing the essence of the world."

The blind man sneered: "Collecting the Book of Heaven will cause the gods and demons to resurrect, so are you trying to say that you don't want to collect the next two pages?"

"Actually, you can tell me directly." Zhao Changhe said: "After all, the Book of Heaven is complete, and the person who will benefit the most is definitely you. You can't control so much whether others recover or not."

The blind man said: "Oh, I can't see that you care about my life or death."

"meeting."

The air was quiet again, and the face he saw in the fantasy seemed to be the most intuitive proof.

Anger appeared on the blind man's face again, but before he could say anything, Zhao Changhe changed the subject again: "Why would Jiuyou pretend to be a lady here in the Li family? Does it mean anything to her? Shouldn't it be like Tao Zun, hiding behind him? , forcing Yuxu to do anything?"

"Dao Zun has Yuxu available, who can Jiuyou? How can those mummies of Huangpai Fengyin stand on the stage? She needs agents on the stage, and now the Li family is of course her first choice. And there is no strong person in the Li family, and Li Boping is no more She is in the middle of the list, and is being walked on a tightrope by the three Hu, Buddhist, and Taoist families, and there is a risk of being completely controlled by others at any time. Naturally, she wants to give the Li family a direct and visible platform. Now that Huang Xiangfengyin and others have even Including Xue Xiao, they all essentially belong to the Li family because they are all loyal to her."

"Then you don't need to run to be the lady yourself. Isn't it the same as standing behind the scenes?"

"Because she is a young lady, as long as the Li family unites the world, she can naturally succeed the emperor. In addition, she does not use the name of young lady within the Li family, but the name of a certain ancestor who has risen from the grave. Of course, this is not known to the outside world. Fa said that if her identity is revealed, she can only be called a young lady."

"She also needs the title of emperor? She represents chaos and annihilation, right? Doesn't she just need to disrupt the world?"

"Xia Longyuan's example tells her that nothing is more convenient than an emperor to bring chaos to the world."

"Grass."

Having said that, didn't you say it wasn't my radar? You talked about this matter involving Jiuyou in such detail that you wanted to worm your way into someone's belly and even take off their underwear.

"Of course, this is my guess and does not represent the truth. After all, I am not a roundworm in her stomach." The blind man said lightly: "There is also a possibility..."

"What?"

"She may have learned from the experience of defeat in ancient times. Without the foundation of human nature, everything is illusory. Her actions after resuscitation this time are very similar..." the blind man said, smiling sarcastically: "She is also trying. Let’s see if there is any reference for touching Ye Di’s path… But the two are inherently opposite, and if she could unify them, she wouldn’t be her anymore.”

"what is that?"

"It's the way of heaven."

Zhao Changhe: "..."

The blind man said in a relaxed tone: "She is trapped in her identity as a young lady. Someone has come to propose marriage. I really want to see her expression. You should work harder on this matter, don't just say it for fun, and work hard to death. If she becomes angry, there is I'm holding on."

This was the first time that the blind man said, "I'm with you" and was willing to openly take action on this matter.

Zhao Changhe looked very strange. Is your reason for taking action a bit different? You also have to follow the rules in everything you do. You broke the rules just to eat melon, right?

Forget it, anyway, talking about business in random directions, at least it has blocked the illusion of spring, and the blind man no longer dwells on that matter, which can be regarded as a result.

Li Boping's voice came from the side: "Your Majesty, please come to the hall."

When the two of them came back to their senses, they realized that they were already in the main hall, and Li Boping had already taken his seat.

Jiuyou stood beside Li Boping, staring at Zhao Changhe intently, with a little confusion in his beautiful eyes.

The blind man was horrified that he would talk nonsense with him and forget to observe his surroundings, let alone observe the world. Jiuyou almost noticed his existence.

She dared to sleep openly when Yue Hongling was in love without fear of Yue Hongling knowing about it, but facing Jiuyou, she didn't dare to be distracted at all, otherwise she might be seen out at any time.

——Jiuyou's current strength can probably only reach the early stage of the second level of Yujing, but her understanding of the laws of heaven is at the third level, and there must be no oversight.

Over there, Suzaku had also taken a seat in the hall. Zhao Changhe and Yue Hongling stood silently behind her. The three of them were all looking at Jiuyou beside Li Boping, and their minds were tense.

Li Boping was saying: "You and I are two hostile families. Since Your Majesty is on an envoy, we, a civilized country, will naturally not make it difficult for you to come. You can make it clear what your Majesty wants to discuss."

Suzaku smiled slightly: "Prince Qin just said that Bo'e is hiding here secretly, but you don't know?"

Li Boping opened his eyes and told lies: "I really don't know."

"So when Yeletu led the light cavalry from Guanlong to Taihang, bypassed the three Jin Dynasties, and raided the capital, it has nothing to do with you anymore?"

"Of course, it is well known that the Hu people once detoured through Yumen and plundered Guanlong. Chang'an was conquered at first, but we were soon driven out." Li Boping continued to tell lies: "Today, there are still many Hu people in Guanlong and Guanlong. A small group of soldiers and horses were in Dacaogu. We also sent troops to suppress them, but with little effect. Therefore, the army that was sent out at the beginning must have bypassed Chang'an and went straight to Taihang, and there was nothing we could do."

It was clear that the army that followed the Li family was ambushed by Huangfu Shaozong, but he just pretended that it didn't happen. If Suzaku asked again, he could also say that it was a war between our two families. What? Did the barbarians open the way first? Sorry, we don't have enough sentinels to know about this.

No matter how false they are, as long as they still want to rule China in the future, the things that once attracted the barbarians' troops must be covered up. If they succeed in unifying the world, they will also make the Northern Expedition. After all, whoever dominates the world will be enemies with Beihu.

Naturally, Zhuque was too lazy to expose it, and just lazily said: "Spring will begin tomorrow...Although in history, barbarians usually go south when the autumn is high and the horses are fat, and they will not choose spring. For example, it was autumn last year. But you and I both know that, This year the situation is different. Our Han Dynasty has just experienced turmoil, and Guanlong, which King Qin just mentioned, was also attacked and plundered by the barbarians. Presumably, apart from the prosperity of Chang'an, other places are also relatively in decline, and everyone is in a state of exhaustion waiting to be revitalized. On the contrary, Iron Mur has just defeated Batu and regained control of Monan, they will not give us a chance, they will definitely go south as soon as the snow stops."

Li Boping secretly thought that what I want is for them to go south. Tell me this...

But all he could say on his face was: "Yes, is this the reason why His Holiness went on a mission?"

"Of course. If the Han Dynasty and the King of Qin temporarily stop fighting and attack the Hulu in the north together, there is a chance of victory. After all, Timur just lost a battle last year and was not as strong as expected. We are just at odds with each other and are involved in each other. "Zhuque said sonorously and forcefully: "If you and I can work together, then we can do more than just fight against the invasion? I think we might all be able to send troops out of the north of the Great Wall and clear out the holes!"

Li Boping smiled: "Guan Long is exhausted and can only protect himself. If your venerable master has the intention of the Northern Expedition, I admire him very much and wish you success."

Suzaku said: "I can fight it out, but you are weak?"

"We are naturally not as good as the fertile territory and powerful military of the Han Dynasty."

"In this case, if you can stay in seclusion and avoid causing trouble for us, that's not impossible." Suzaku said leisurely: "But this kind of alliance is extremely fragile, and there is no one in the middle to maintain it, so we can't be trusted. So is it a marriage or something?" "

Having finally said this, Li Boping secretly glanced at Jiuyou beside him, but Jiuyou was still looking at Zhao Changhe, as expressionless as a porcelain doll from beginning to end.

Li Boping was slightly stunned, right? With your attitude, you really don't like him...

Without the instructions from his ancestors, Li Boping could only bite the bullet and make random nonsense: "Marriage is certainly not impossible, but why can't it be Li who wants to marry the Han princess for the dog?"

"There is no princess in our family at all hahaha."

Li Boping: "..."

"Besides, you are not worthy. You may not be able to touch my maids." Zhuque said leisurely: "Don't talk nonsense, it is meaningless. I heard that your young lady is quite beautiful. If you are willing to send her to serve our King Zhao on the pillow, , the two sides can temporarily stop fighting. If you don't want to... Bo'e appeared in Chang'an today. Why did Bo Xun come out of Buddhism and the Li family refused to form an alliance? The people of the world will have their own opinions. Tomorrow, the Han soldiers will leave Hangu, and the heavenly soldiers will arrive. It’s all just rubbish, don’t say it was unpredicted.”

How can there be such a marriage proposal? It was just to cause trouble. Suzaku would not really propose marriage for Zhao Changhe.

Even if Li Boping really had a daughter, he couldn't stand such remarks. Just as he was about to refuse outright, Jiuyou beside him suddenly spoke quietly: "If we really want to discuss marriage, we can talk about the details. If the requirements are met, , but it’s not impossible to consider.”

Eh?

Li Boping was dumbfounded, and Suzaku stared blankly, dumbfounded.

What do you want to do, little bitch!

Even Yue Hongling, who had always acted as a guard without saying a word, subconsciously pressed the hilt of the sword.

Zhao Changhe opened his mouth wide, wanting to pull the blind man out of the void again. What does she want to do? Blind man, please say something!

Unfortunately, even the blind man was stunned at this time.
