Chapter 6 The End of the World(1/2)
Chapter 6 The wandering couples gather together at the end of the world
When they broke up, Lu Feiyang swept away his old dejection and spoke to Sun Wu seriously with an expression as if he had just woken up from a dream.26nbsp;
"Xiao Wu, you must be very disappointed when you see Uncle Lu like this. However, life is like this. There are always many unsatisfactory things. Not everything can go as you wish. These things... you are still young, But one day you will understand."
Lu Feiyang 'touched' Sun Wu's head and said warmly: "Actually, it's too early to tell you this now. You are at the age of dreaming. Now that you have come down from the mountain, go boldly to find your dreams. Yours What is a dream? Didn’t Liang Shanbo’s father teach you to be brave enough to pursue your dreams? Just let it go and have fun.”
The time was too hasty. Originally, Sun Wu wanted to buy Lu Feiyang a new set of clothes to replace his dirty rags that were full of sour smell as a gift to congratulate him on his new life. However, Lu Feiyang left in a hurry and remained the same until he left. He looks like an unkempt savage.
I don’t know if he understood it wrong, but Sun Wu always felt that Lu Feiyang originally wanted to go with him, but because he saw his hesitation, he changed his mind and said he wanted to go to his friend. If this is true, then he will I feel very sorry for him because I was unable to help him when he needed help the most.
"Xiao Wu, let's contact you when the time comes. When you return to Honest Mihang, Uncle Lu assures you that everything will be different..."
Speaking in a promising tone, Lu Feiyang said goodbye to Sun Wu and his group. However, before he left, he was still playing with Xiao Shang. When she wasn't paying attention, he reached out and pinched her fair and tender face, leaving five marks. The black stains then laughed and walked away. This good mood made Sun Wu relieved, but he was also surprised why Xiao Shang didn't react at all. Xiang Ling even curiously asked Xiao Shang, weren't you angry at being pranked like this?
"Angry? Have to react? What do you want me to do? Have you cut off his remaining hand as well?"
Xiao Shang's cold words made it sound like he could do it right away. Xiang Ling immediately didn't dare to answer. He was afraid that a joke would make the lie come true and cause some big trouble. On the contrary, Sun Wu looked at Xiao Shang in confusion. When I was mourning, I saw her reaching out to wipe away the stains on her face, and she seemed to say something intentionally or unintentionally.
"...Because he is also a pitiful person."
This sentence really shocked Sun Wu, who looked at Xiao Shang in disbelief.
"Xiao Shang, you, you actually have sympathy?"
"What's wrong? Have you never heard of compassion? Everyone has it?"
"I've heard this sentence before, but... can you still be considered a human being?"
Sun Wu blurted out a sentence, not so much as a provocation, but actually because he felt that Xiao Shang was a little lackluster and wanted to use this to cheer her up. However, when he said this, the expected Octopus Fist did not attack. Xiao Shang just looked up and down. He glanced at Sun Wu, and then responded calmly in a colder tone.
"Is it fun to satirize people? Being a relative of the emperor is great, but you can just say hurtful words?"
Rather than hurting others with words, Xiao Shang's words were really lethal. With one word, he hit the most troubled question in Sun Wu's heart these days, and his whole face immediately collapsed.
"Xiao, Xiao Shang, that's not what happened. It was a misunderstanding. I don't know why I was able to throw that punch, but I'm really not a relative of the emperor. It's all a misunderstanding."
Sun Wu tried his best to argue, his eagerness was palpable, hoping to clear up this misunderstanding. After all, in his heart, having the blood of the Dawu royal family was not an honorable thing, especially when he thought of the cruel deeds of today's emperor. If he had the blood of the royal family, then it would not be a glorious thing.
Have we become relatives with this madman?
However, Xiao Shang seemed to be unable to see this effort. Hearing his argument, he simply asked, "Really? Are you sure?"
If Sun Wu was a person who didn't mind lying, this problem would be easy to solve. However, he was not sure about his life experience at all, and even Xiang Ling cast a doubtful eye on him after he hesitated.
"It doesn't matter, young master. Even if you really have royal blood, Xiangling will still follow you. Please don't worry about this kind of thing."
"Oh, Xiangling, thank you... Uh! That's not right!"
Xiang Ling's statement at this time certainly comforted Sun Wu, but on the other hand, if Xiang Ling said this, didn't he already believe that he was from the royal family? Before the truth is known, he was misunderstood like this.
It's really very unpleasant.
After seeing off Lu Feiyang, everyone started heading towards the main courtyard of Cihang Jingdian Hall. However, during the journey, some expected troubles began to occur.
The fact that the mad monk, Tie Zhongtang, and the two leaders of the royal guards were defeated by an unknown young man was finally spread, and in the shortest time it became a well-known news in the world. Everyone in the world was scrambling to ask.
Where did the boy named "Sun Wu" come from?
The answer was soon announced. This young man came from the legendary place "Liangshanbo". He colluded with foreign races from outside the region, attacked 'government' agencies, resisted the king's search, and intended to overthrow the Central Plains. He committed a heinous crime. Although he was young, he had already become a member of the imperial court.
A wanted criminal with a huge reward on his head.
This qualification is considered to be prominent, and it is consistent with the extraordinary skill of defeating the two leaders of the imperial guards in one fell swoop. However, it still feels strange to an expert, because compared with martial arts, there are many demons in the world who have been famous for decades.
The gangster is far more important than this fledgling boy. In terms of the crimes he committed, although this boy committed rebellious behavior and colluded with foreign races, the people he killed were only minor officials and minor officials, not relatives of the emperor. The law enforcement of the Ministry of Punishment
Officials have always been very careful with their budgets, so logically they shouldn't waste too many resources on this young man.
However, the Ministry of Punishment paid more attention to this young criminal than it should have. Not only did the Minister of Punishment personally sign an official document, ordering all provinces to arrest people and bring the criminal to justice, the reward amount was also extremely generous.
The most surprising thing is that behind this incident, there is clearly someone higher up than the Ministry of Punishment taking the lead, because the Ministry of Punishment actually issued ten arrest warrants in one day.
"When it came to "Each province mobilized elites to capture the four leading criminals and solve the case within a time limit," the tone suddenly turned harsh, and the amount of the reward increased ten times in one day, turning it into an unprecedented super high price, which shocked the world.
All kinds of abnormal measures, one can imagine the panic of the officials of the Ministry of Punishment, who were sweating profusely under great pressure, trying to figure out their intentions, and repeatedly raising the level of arrests. Among the six departments of the imperial court, the military and the two punishment departments were always in a state of panic.
The military department is the most powerful and arrogant. They collude with each other and engage in constant infighting. Although the military department can exert pressure on the criminal department, it is absolutely impossible to cause such heavy pressure. The only explainable source of pressure is within the palace, and
He is not an ordinary internal official or spy, but the master of the palace and dynasty, Emperor Wu Canglan.
Everyone knows that this madman has always been afraid that the world will not be "chaotic". It is not surprising that he occasionally has some idea to stir up trouble, but with his high self-esteem, he will never do anything without reason.
There must be a reason for everything. There must be a special reason for this unknown boy to gain his attention.
For a time, people all over the world were talking about it, wondering what was so special about this young man. However, with the efforts of spies from all sides, some "truths" were discovered, causing further uproar.
The reason why the Mad Monk, Tiezhongtang, and the two imperial guard teams pursued the Iron-Blooded Cavalry was to recapture the Buddha's blood relic. After a fierce battle between the two sides, the Buddha's blood relic disappeared. It may have fallen into the hands of the imperial guards, but there are more
They may have been taken back outside the territory by the Iron-Blooded Cavalry. This news certainly attracted the attention of all parties, but what surprised them even more was that the young man named Sun Wu not only took action in this battle, but also used it to defeat the powerful moves of the two guards.
It is also the secret of the Dawu royal family, the Dragon Fist of the Emperor.
With hundreds of years of near-invincible records, the supreme status of Emperor Dragon Fist has long been deeply established in the hearts of the people of Middle-earth, and the special nature limited by blood adds a layer of mystery to it.
A man who can use Dragon Fist must be a descendant of true dragon blood. This is an iron rule that cannot be wrong. Now that Dragon Fist is played in the hands of a commoner boy, is this a symbol of the upcoming change of dynasty? In other words, this boy has a relationship with Dawu.
Are the emperors related by blood?
From the perspective of rationality, the latter is naturally much more likely. Although there is no evidence, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the rapid spread of this secret speaks for itself. The imperial court controls intelligence.
With the ability, it is easy to block this matter, but this matter was leaked from the mouth of the imperial guard, and then spread quickly throughout the land of Middle-earth like wildfire. The reasonable explanation for this situation is that the imperial court deliberately let go.
Even secretly fueling the flames.
There is an unwritten consensus that is well known both inside and outside the government. The emperor's desire for heirs and sons has reached an almost pathological level. If this young man is really his illegitimate son living among the people, then these unprecedented high-level arrests are just the right thing to do.
It represents the importance he attaches to this illegitimate child.
The emperor is the most powerful person on earth, and the people the emperor values have their weight and become the targets of others. Although this was not what Sun Wu wanted, the impact has slowly appeared.
As soon as they left Pingyang City, Sun Wu and his party were quickly discovered, and a large number of pursuers followed them. Not only officials, but also some bounty hunters who had heard of the news were tempted by the sky-high bounties and wanted to take them down.
The young man's head was replaced with gold that was a hundred times heavier. When Sun Wu poked his head out of the carriage, he was frightened by a large crowd of black crows in front of him.
"So many people? Isn't it too exaggerated?"
"The magic of money is so exaggerated." Xiao Shang patted his companion on the shoulder as if he was very sentimental and said: "What is more exaggerated than the magic of money is the magic of love, but country bumpkins seem to be insulated from this."
"When we are surrounded by hundreds of people holding knives, can you say something constructive? Otherwise we will soon be enveloped by the magic of death."
Sun Wu was really nervous, because his current state was very unsuitable for action. As long as he condensed his true energy, the energy of the Buddha's blood relics would be affected, and he felt that his whole body was expanding outwards like a balloon, and his meridians would burst at any time.
burst.
Xiangling also felt the same, and even felt much stronger than Sun Wu. Ever since he became a master of martial arts, he had never been afraid of any enemy. He always had fear on his face and had time to laugh in his heart. However, the situation in front of him was not what it used to be.
Bi, with only 30% of his strength left at most, he had no confidence in dealing with such a number of group battles. What was even worse was... there was no way he could escape without Sun Wu. This situation was really serious.
"It doesn't matter, let me take care of these people."
At the critical moment, Fei Lianxiu said something calmly, seemingly not taking the situation seriously, showing the confidence of a top expert.
Sun Wu and Xiang Ling were a little embarrassed, but they hoped to see Fei Lianxiu's fighting skills, but this wish came to nothing due to a sudden change. The person who caused the sudden change this time was not Xiaoshang, but Shu.
The thousand officers and soldiers seemed to be all elite members of the local army and were well equipped.
Soldiers and police officers are supposed to be on the same side, but these officers and soldiers attacked the pursuers with no mercy. Sun Wu and others could hardly believe their eyes until a few "sexy" men wearing high-ranking official uniforms
The general shouted loudly and rushed over on horseback, shouting "Guard you!" Xiangling woke up from a dream and explained to Sun Wu.
"Master, these people..."
"No, I already know what happened."
The slow young man's thoughts were not that sharp, but when the two groups of people in front of him shouted "protect the prince" and wailed and cursed "the dog official wants to climb the dragon and the phoenix", he suddenly understood that he had become a rare commodity to live in.
"Master, I think we should sneak away first, it's too messy here."
Sun Wu nodded, and while the whole place was in chaos, everyone abandoned their cars and fled, far away from the scene.
Although this incident was an accident, it was the beginning of a series of similar incidents.
Those who wanted to hunt down, those who wanted to flatter, those who wanted to revenge, those who wanted to take advantage... People who came with various purposes troubled Sun Wu. In the end, he was forced to change his disguise and go out day and night.
, tried his best to rely on Xiao Shang's flying magic weapon to rush on the road, and finally got rid of the pursuer, and successfully arrived at the outer city of Cihang Jingdian within four days.
Cihang Jingdian is worthy of being one of the two holy sects. The closer you get to Cihang's main temple, the larger the nearby cities are and the more temples there are in the city. It seems that every temple is prosperous. With this
Feeding a large number of monks.
Temple after temple, thanks to the technical and financial support from the imperial court, was beautifully built. Although some of them are not magnificent, they are still very solemn. It seems that they cover a large area and have many believers. If it were not for the believers,
The visit to the shrine has a bit more of a secular flavor, and it really seems like the Paradise of Paradise has appeared on earth.
Listening to Xiangling's explanation, it turns out that in order to show respect for Cihang Jingdian, the imperial court allocates a large amount of funds every year to build Buddhist temples, pagodas, lectures, and charity in several cities around Cihang Jingdian.
They have repeatedly exempted these religious cities from taxes and attracted monks from all over the world. Therefore, although these religious cities are not engaged in production, they are quite wealthy. Being a monk here is more popular than being an official.
There was no Buddhist temple in Liangshan. This was the first time for Sun Wu to see these many gorgeous temples, and he was deeply attracted by their unique style and culture.
Several relatively large Buddhist temples not only have more worshipers, but also pay special attention to the architectural decoration. The walls are either carved or painted on tiles, pieced together to form scenes of paintings. Most of the graphics painted on them are Buddhist scriptures.
Although Sun Wu couldn't understand the story, the detailed brushwork, gorgeous colors, and lifelike Buddhist characters in the painting were indeed a very beautiful artistic achievement.
