The two walked out of the school and slowly walked outside the fence, carefully avoiding the cow dung.
Outside the village, they walked to a small bridge with a stream flowing under their feet.
Looking around, they saw green farmland, old cows leisurely eating grass, and the mist after the rain was clearly layered, covering the green mountains in the distance.
The teacher seemed to sigh with emotion, "Picturesque landscape!"
The peddler shook his head slightly, "Sir, it's better to let it go. From the moment I took action, this landscape could not be taken back. If you take it by force, you will lose your life. I won't be able to protect you then. Just watch."
The teacher asked, "How is mother?"
The peddler replied, "I don't know. I went there once and found that something was wrong. It's very likely that there is a trap waiting for us, so I didn't dare to go there again. But you can rest assured that with Miss here, she will definitely treat the old lady well. "
The teacher asked, "Why did you come to see me?"
The peddler replied, "I have good news to let you feel better. Niu Youdao is dead, he died in the Saint Realm. I don't know who killed him, but I am sure that he is dead!"
The teacher's mouth twitched violently and his eyes were filled with hatred, "Good death, it was too easy for him to die in the hands of others!"
He knew all too well about the destruction of Zhao. It was Niu Youdao who instigated the war between Yan and Zhao. It was because of Niu Youdao that the Waning Moon Pavilion joined forces to attack Zhao. He hated Niu Youdao the most.
After the destruction of Zhao, they had to hide and flee. When they finally settled down, he couldn't swallow his resentment. If it was anyone else, it would be hard for them to swallow their resentment.
It was not only the destruction of the country, but also the destruction of their families. They fled in a hurry and couldn't bring many of their families with them. They were a group of people with extraordinary looks and temperament, and they didn't have the basic ability to take care of themselves. If such a group of people escaped, they would not be able to hide from the eyes and ears of those who wanted to.
He had to pretend that he didn't know how many children and concubines had become ghosts under the knife or playthings of others. So what if he knew? Every living and abused person could be used as bait to catch him.
He didn't even dare to mention it, because mentioning it would be like cutting his own heart. Day and night, every time he thought about it, his heart would bleed.
The more he had, the greater the price he had to pay when he gave it up.
Perhaps there was no hope of restoring his country, but he could at least take revenge, right? He ordered Zhuge Chi to take the lives of his enemies.
Zhuge Chi did not agree. It was easy for him to kill someone, but it was also easy for him to expose himself.
The Gold Province used to be the territory of the Kingdom of Zhao, and there were many spies there. He already knew about Shang Youlan's encounter in the Gold Province, which was discovered by the Misty Pavilion.
The Misty Pavilion actually found Shang Youlan, and the Misty Pavilion actually intervened?
He immediately realized that the thing he was most worried about had happened. He had already been targeted by the Nine Saints. Against such terrifying existences like the Nine Saints, how would he dare to act rashly?
He was confident in dealing with others. He had no confidence in dealing with an old monster who had been entrenched in the cultivation world for hundreds of years. Even Wu Chang, who was the most inexperienced, could easily beat him down.
Furthermore, his existence was not for revenge. At his level, he would not participate in the restoration of his country. To him, the restoration of his country was meaningless. He had only one duty in his life, and that was to protect the safety of the Emperor. This was his promise to the old man!
The old man had treated him like his own son, and he had been able to achieve what he had today because of the old man.
Before the old man died, he had knelt before the bed and promised to protect the safety of the Third Emperor. Only then could he quietly leave!
He had only protected the Third Emperor because the old man knew that it was not suitable for him to continue living in the eyes of the public. At most, he could only protect the Third Emperor, or else he would be implicated!
But Hai Wuji was truly unwilling. His family had been destroyed to such an extent, and his living wife and daughter had been humiliated day and night. How could he swallow this?
In the end, he settled for the next best thing. Niu Youdao. He only wanted Niu Youdao to die. He only wanted the head of the main culprit, Niu Youdao!
Just this one condition! Zhuge Chi finally agreed. With his strength, killing one person was nothing. Even if Niu Youdao hid in the Purple Gold Cave, it would be useless. If he wanted to enter the Purple Gold Cave, the defenses of the Purple Gold Cave would not be able to stop him.
The only thing he had to confirm was whether or not Niu Youdao was in the Purple Gold Cave. He had to confirm the location, and he could not rashly kill his way in. Otherwise, with just him alone, Niu Youdao could easily find a place to hide in the enormous Purple Gold Cave. He could not just stay in the Purple Gold Cave and slowly search, right? If he really did that, he would be courting death!
He had to be fast. After confirming, he would rush to his target and then quickly leave.
Who knew that before he could prepare, Niu Youdao would be sent to the Saint Realm, and he would not have a chance to act.
Now, he did not need to act anymore. Niu Youdao was already dead!
… …
The group of carriages stopped to rest and reorganize.
Yun Ji went up the mountain and stood on the slope, gazing into the distance.
Guan Fangyi also came. She leisurely walked to her side and accompanied her to look into the distance. Yun Ji looked back at her.
"Sister Yun, do you have any plans for the future?" Guan Fangyi suddenly asked with a smile.
Yun Ji, "I should be asking you what your plans are. It is not easy for a woman like you to manage so many people."
Guan Fangyi, "Actually, it is nothing. I am not the one who is worried. I am just an errand boy. Sister Yun, on the other hand, you are not interested in power. I am afraid I cannot keep you here. "
Yun Ji, "It is not that I am not interested in power, but I cannot be interested. Being interested is courting death. I promised Niu Youdao that if he does not come back, I will escort you all to your destination. He has put in a lot of effort for you all. "
Guan Fangyi, "Will you leave us after sending us to our destination?"
Yun Ji, "There are some things that you may or may not know. In short, it may not be a good thing for me to stay with you all. There are some things that you cannot handle with your ability."
Guan Fangyi, "If Daoye is still here, you will continue to stay, right?"
Yun Ji, "That is two different things. If he is here, all the problems are not problems. I am instead under his protection. Now that he is not here, look at you all. You have become stray dogs. And that Yuan Gang, your thoughts and his thoughts are not the same. A group of people with a few different ideas. Without someone who could bring you all together and make you all listen to orders, this group of people will sooner or later fall apart. After I send you all to your destination, you will all be safe. It's time for me to leave. " He told me that the destination is the Demon Ridge. He said that there will be people there to take care of you. "
"Hongniang understands Sister's meaning. I am already very grateful that Sister is willing to escort me all the way. I do not dare to ask for anything more." Guan Fangyi half squatted down to thank her. Then, she slightly moved closer to her and said in a low voice, "Go behind the mountain on your right. There is someone waiting for you there."
Yun Ji did not understand. "Who?"
Guan Fangyi, "You will know when you get there. Be careful. Don't let anyone find you."
Yun Ji still wanted to ask something, but Guan Fangyi had already turned around and left.
Yun Ji looked back at the mountain on her right. She hesitated for a while and finally left quietly.
After arriving at her destination, she landed on the mountain and looked around. Suddenly, a voice came from the side. "He is coming."
She turned around and saw a person coming out from behind a big stone covered by grass and trees. She had seen him before. He should be one of the disciples sent by Purple Golden Cave to clear the way.
But the other person's voice made her a little surprised. It was familiar.
The person behind the stone waved his hand. He seemed to feel that the mountain was a little too conspicuous and signaled her to go over.
Yun Ji was surprised and hesitant.
So, the person behind the stone took off the disguise on his face and revealed his real face. He smiled brightly. Who else could it be but Niu Youdao?
Yun Ji was shocked. She quickly looked around and then flashed to his side. She was very surprised and said, "You are not dead?"
Niu Youdao chuckled and said, "How can I die so easily? What, are you looking forward to my death?"
Yun Ji stared at him and looked him up and down. She repeatedly confirmed, "How … how is this possible?"
Niu Youdao said, "Nothing is impossible. I guarantee it's real. Do you want to touch it?"
Yun Ji said, "This shamelessness can't be fake."
Niu Youdao sighed and said, "My death at the saint realm was my plan to escape. There's no other way. I've caused too much trouble and am becoming more and more conspicuous. The weight is too great and I can't turn anymore."
Yun Ji said, "I heard a little. You defeated that one and killed this one. You ran to the Saint Land and still dare to cause trouble. You are really daring."
Niu Youdao spread his hands and said, "I have already made up my mind. I am going to die anyway. What is there to be afraid of? In short, I have been targeted by the Nine Saints. I can only die. I didn't plan to show myself to you for the time being. I asked Hong Niang to probe your thoughts. If you were willing to stay, she wouldn't have asked you to come here. Since you are here, it seems that you have decided to leave? "
Yun Ji said, "Can you still show yourself now?"
Niu Youdao said, "I can't hide forever. I have to show myself when I need to. Big sister, are you afraid? If not, then stay! "
Yun Ji smiled …
Inside the Heroic Hall of the Southern Provincial Governor's Mansion, Meng Shanming and Shang Chaozong were both facing the map and paying attention to the war in the three Western countries day and night.
Shang Chaozong explained the situation of the troops of the three western countries and put down his stick. "That's the current situation."
Meng Shanming said, "Did the Purple Golden Cave reply?"
In addition to the war, there were more troublesome things. Recently, there were a lot of troublesome things. Not to mention the death of Niu Youdao, the request for help from Wei Guo also gave them a headache.
After Wei Guo failed to get the full support from Yan Country, he actually wanted to use Meng Shanming. Xuan Wei wanted to invite Meng Shanming to preside over the war against Wei Guo.
Wei Guo's mood could also be understood. Right now, as long as there was a life-saving straw, he would grab it. First of all, he fancied Meng Shanming's combat command ability. Secondly, he hoped to use Meng Shanming's prestige to restore the morale of the retreating army.
In short, he hoped to use Meng Shanming to turn the tide!
However, the Yan Country's imperial court, Xiao Yao Palace, and Spirit Sword Mountain seemed to be eager for Meng Shanming to go.
The Purple Golden Cave asked for their opinion, but the reply was a refusal!
They had no choice but to refuse. If Meng Shanming went, no matter what the result of the war was, Qi and Wei Guo would not easily let Meng Shanming come back.
Shang Chaozong said, "I don't know what's going on. Logically speaking, they should've replied by now, but they didn't reply until now. Do they really want to agree? Commander Meng, if you really have to go, do you have the confidence in this war? "
