The desert was lonely and the smoke was straight. After the tribulation, the two of them headed north.

When it was almost night, he came to Huangsha Town hidden in the desert. After Li Xiuyuan sold the two huge strange birds he had on him and bought two horses, he only had less than two hundred copper coins left.

The two of them found an inn to stay at, and each asked for a guest room and washed themselves carefully.

When the waiter came in with a basin of mutton, it was already midnight. The old man looked at him and shook his head helplessly.

He smiled bitterly and said: "If this strange bird were placed in the Imperial City of Qin, I'm afraid it would have to be sold for one or two hundred gold coins. It's good that we only exchanged two horses for it."

Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly and expressed his disdain for this. He said, "It would be good to exchange for two horses. After all, they only regard the strange bird as better meat and sell it to passing merchants."

The old man thought for a moment and said, "If we go any further, I'm afraid I'll be separated from you. Why don't you go to Tianshan with me to see it?"

"How far is Tianshan Mountain?"

After pouring a glass of wine brought by the waiter, Li Xiuyuan asked: "Is it far from Yuezhi City? My goal is Yuezhi King City."

The old man took a breath and thought for a while before replying: "It's very far away, probably no less than a thousand miles away, right? I've never been to that place either."

"Forget it then." Li Xiuyuan replied sternly: "Now I want to see the situation of the army in Yuezhi City. After all, Master Su and the others built this Great Wall to guard against them."

The old man shook his head and sighed: "Are you worried about the world of Qin?"

"No!" Li Xiuyuan took a bowl of mutton soup and took a sip, then replied: "Because Mr. Su is there, and because there are countless people at the foot of the Great Wall."

To Li Xiuyuan, the emperor in the imperial city was no different from the common people at the foot of the Great Wall.

If Master Soda cannot survive the Xiongnu army, he will be killed by the Xiongnu army just like the two sons of the old man who lived with him in the Prince's Village.

This is an iron-blooded fact that no one can change.

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and continued: "Maybe Zhang Liang and the others will use this Great Wall in the future..."

When the old man heard this, it was like another thunderbolt sounded above his head. He was instantly dizzy and had to pick up the wine in front of him and take a few sips.

It wasn't until a red light appeared on his face that he couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Will Great Qin die?"

Although he saw some secrets, Li Xiuyuan in front of him was more mysterious than him, so he asked reluctantly.

Li Xiuyuan looked at him and replied quietly: "Of course he will die."

The old man's body trembled suddenly. Although he had already spied some secrets, he did not expect that Li Xiuyuan would give him an extremely clear result.

The old man asked himself that his deduction skills were the best in the world since he began to practice, but in front of Li Xiuyuan, it turned into child's play.

The reason was very simple, because he had never clearly seen Li Xiuyuan's cultivation, but Li Xiuyuan blocked three nine thunder tribulations for him with just one hand, and allowed him to break through.

The old man now has a glimmer of hope for advancement.

Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but ask: "How many lives will it take to die?" The old man asked reluctantly.

Li Xiuyuan was thinking about going to the East China Sea with Xu Fu, and when he met the Imperial Guards who had turned into bandits, he couldn't help but coldly replied: "How long can this paper lantern last? Only two lives!"

With a rumble, a thunder finally fell from the sky and struck heavily over the town, like a warning to those who spoke nonsense about the way of heaven.

The old man trembled with fright, because Li Xiuyuan's answer finally confirmed what he had deduced in his mind.

If it comes to that, I am afraid that my precious disciple will really do something big, otherwise the mysterious wine shop owner in front of me will also help him embark on the path of spiritual practice.

After all, even after thinking for a long time, I didn't dare to help Zhang Liang gather energy, just for fear of disturbing the balance of heaven and earth.

Unexpectedly, the guy in front of me just waved his hand, first asked Zhang Liang to gather energy to practice, and then allowed himself to break through to the threshold that he had been thinking about.

This, this is really a big dream.

Thinking of this, the old man couldn't help but stop him.

Said: "Sir, the secret must not be leaked, and you must never speak like this in the future."

"I'm not afraid of him."

Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly: "My brother and I are just here to visit this world, and we will not change the balance of heaven here. If senior hadn't spied on the secret of heaven, I wouldn't have told you this."

If it weren't for the old man breaking through the situation and seeing the hope of ascension, the old man would have gone to the Tianshan Mountains.

Li Xiuyuan would definitely not tell him some of his secrets, but now he gave the old man a reassurance to let him know in advance that his deduction was correct.

This is the way of heaven, so Li Xiuyuan is not leaking the secret.

The old man sighed and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "No wonder you want to bring the Crown Princess to the Great Wall. It turns out that everything has its own destiny."

"The prince is the master's favorite disciple, with a kind heart. He deserves a bright future. Since the senior has cultivated to such a state, he naturally knows that he can live another life."

Speaking of Young Master Su, Li Xiuyuan did not elaborate.

Because until the last moment, he would never tell anyone where he would go on behalf of Master Su, Meng Jiang and others.

He won't even tell Xiao Hei, because there is no Xiao Hei who doesn't care about this.

The old man drank two glasses of wine, and his fluctuating mood gradually calmed down. He now had a clear understanding of his own future and Zhang Liang's future.

I couldn't help but clapped my hands and sighed: "So what if he is the emperor?"

After drinking, Li Xiuyuan lit the stove to boil water and make tea, because he didn't know when the old man in front of him would be separated from him.

The old man is the same. He wants to tell Li Xiuyuan something, and then use his mouth to tell Young Master Dan on the Great Wall.

It wasn't until a pot of Tianshan Spiritual Tea filled the room with a faint fragrance of flowers that the old man held it in his hand and took a few sips before reaching out and gently knocking on the table.

Remind Li Xiuyuan that he is going to say something very important next.

After thinking for a while, he said softly: "I have one more thing to do when I leave the Imperial City, because I predict that there will be a disaster in the Emperor Star in the near future, and I am not a minister of the emperor..."

"There is a disaster on the Emperor Star, what happened?"

Suddenly, Li Xiuyuan thought of that legendary event, and couldn't help but murmur: "Suddenly, a madman sharpened his sword at night, and the emperor's star fluttered high. Is this what happened?"

The old man was startled when he heard this, and even the hairs on his body stood up in shock.

Looking at Li Xiuyuan, he said in a daze: "The celestial phenomenon of Yinghuo Shouxin is just my deduction. No third person in the world knows about it, not even Zhang Liang..."

The old man was startled at first, and then shook his head. Yinghuo Shouxin was just a celestial phenomenon that he had inadvertently deduced, but now that Li Xiuyuan could tell it accurately, it only meant that his guess was correct.

Li Xiuyuan looked at the old man's appearance and couldn't help laughing.

He said calmly: "I know that there are many more things than my seniors. Don't ask me why. In a sense, seniors can only deduce it that they are really powerful..."

"As for me, I told you a long time ago. I only realized it later, but I can't tell you the reason. Please forgive me here."

Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly and said, "I don't care who becomes the emperor."

The old man nodded and said softly: "The heart is the Emperor Star, and the Yinghuo Lord is the disaster. When the two meet, it heralds the coming of the disaster... As you said, in this world, well, it's okay not to talk about it."

Li Xiuyuan disagreed, and stretched out his hand to add some spiritual tea to the old man, and replied: "I have seen the burning of books and experienced the deception of Confucianism, so I want to leave with Xiao Hei."

"I didn't expect that I would be able to witness more great events. It's worth coming here."

Li Xiuyuan also didn't expect that the old man in front of him had deduced the legendary celestial phenomenon of Yinghuo Shouxin in advance.

Thinking about some of the things he was going to experience, he couldn't help but be filled with infinite expectations.

Having said that, Li Xiuyuan didn't ask any more questions, because he already knew almost everything that followed.

And the one on the head

I am afraid that Heaven will not tolerate the two of them discussing like this.

Thinking that the old man was going to Tianshan, Li Xiuyuan looked at him and reminded him seriously: "Senior is going to Tianshan to practice. In the days to come, you must pay attention to the method of cultivating the physical body."

The old man sighed: "I understand this. Before, I couldn't break through that threshold in my whole life, so I was so frustrated that I just wanted to pass the mantle to Zhang Liang."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and continued: "No one can give up until the last moment, even in the future."

Having said this, Li Xiuyuan took out a few talismans and handed them to the old man.

In the surprised expression of the old man, he said quietly: "If one day you want to survive the catastrophe of ascension on Tianshan Mountain, if you are not sure, just like today, use these talismans at the last moment."

For Li Xiuyuan, he and Xiao Hei were just passers-by, and they didn't even know they were leaving that day. It was pretty good to be able to do this for the old man.

The old man carefully put away the talisman and looked at him with eyes that changed again and again.

After a long time, he asked: "Where is my disciple Zhang Liang? Will his life path change in the future?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "I can't control his life. It should be just like what you saw, senior. He has already reached the level of Jindan, if he doesn't seek death at this time."

A master was watching Zhang Liang in the imperial city, and considering what he told Zhang Liang, he believed that Zhang Liang would not act recklessly.

Even worse, there was Xiao Hei watching him.

The old man sighed and said leisurely: "The fate of our master and apprentice is also an accident. He will have to work hard on his own in the coming years."

"exactly."

Li Xiuyuan stood up and prepared to leave. He looked at the old man and said with a smile, "Congratulations to the seniors for hearing the Dao. You can expect to be promoted. I'm afraid I won't be able to see that day."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hands and said as he walked: "Tomorrow is another new day."

The old man murmured back: "Yes, yesterday is dead, and tomorrow is a brand new day."

The solitary smoke in the desert is straight, but the solitary smoke is too straight to blow into Prince Village, not far from the foot of the Great Wall.

The jianjia is green and the white dew is like frost.

On the White Dew Day, the lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion finally moved from a military camp at the foot of the Great Wall to a new house in Prince Village. Just as Li Xiuyuan told Prince Su, it was quiet and convenient here.

It happened that Li Hu also came back from Mingyue City on this day, because there was a decree from the imperial city, and the state government arranged for a new city lord to go to Mingyue City. As a result, he couldn't wait to return to his lady's side.

After all, this is what the left prime minister meant.

Although Meng Jiang did not move to live with Miss Xiangfu, she did bring some jujubes to visit the sister who had taken care of her.

If Li Xiuyuan hadn't enlightened her repeatedly before and made her understand some truths about different worlds, I would have killed her from wanting to say more than half a sentence to the lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

No matter how she said it, her husband died on the Great Wall and had nothing to do with His Royal Highness. She couldn't convince herself right now.

Miss Xiangfu was well informed and learned from Li Hu that Meng Jiang's husband died behind the Great Wall, so she comforted the miserable sister in front of her.

The two of them thought about the unknown years to come, and unconsciously cherished each other and comforted each other.

At this time, Li Xiuyuan was already walking with the old man on the long desert.
