"If this is the case, wouldn't Miss Qiu and the others seek the wrong revenge and kill the wrong person?"After separating from Qiu Ji and Su Qingwu, the two of them took the long way and headed back to Jiangling Mansion. Later, they were still on the border of Wuzhou, so they had to find an inn to stay first. Xu Mulin based himself on the nearby The discoveries made in the past few days and the inferred truth were told to Xu Qingjiu. After hearing this, Xu Qingjiu pondered for a long time before saying unbearably.

"Many times, the truth is more difficult to accept than reality, especially in the face of a reality created by oneself. However, Xie Chi has followed Du Shengyang for many years, so he must not be completely innocent. Now that he has made this choice, I am afraid that there will be no Longyin Village from now on, and there will probably be chaos on Du Shengyang's side. We should be able to A little looser.

Seeing Xu Qingjiu silent on the side, Xu Mulin couldn't help but asked:"What's wrong?""

"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt...It's a pity. Although I don't know how Xie Chi came to be controlled by Du Shengyang step by step, but now seeing him giving up everything and fighting to the death with Du Shengyang, I suddenly feel that these may not be what he really wants. If he has a choice, maybe his It won't end like this"

"Once a person makes a choice, he should bear all the consequences of that choice. There is no regret or regret. We can't judge whether Xie Chi's choice was right or wrong, but as long as he decided for himself, if he also felt that he made the wrong choice, he should look back in time instead of regretting his past mistakes when he can't go back. Made a choice"

"But can you turn back when you want to? Do you have a choice when you want to make a choice again?"

"If you are determined to do it, you will definitely be able to do it. Even if you still fail to do it in the end, you can still feel at ease because you have made the determination to change. You will not let everyone down and let you down completely. Own."

After listening to Xu Mulin's words, Xu Qingjiu felt that life was indeed like this, but he couldn't help but said:"It turns out that in life, you really can't live completely for yourself and make choices for yourself. There are always many things that you can't help but cannot control. when. I just hope that I can make every choice right. It is really difficult to look back."

Perhaps a person can only truly be free and easy after experiencing all the helplessness in the world. Maybe Qingjiu will have to taste all of this after all. No matter how meticulously I protect him, Qingjiu and I will only exist after all. I am just a small existence in this world. I may not be able to resist it completely. How can I guarantee that Qingjiu will always stay out of it? Maybe it is still early and when there is still something to give, let Qingjiu learn these things. One day in the future, he can Let him rely on himself to resist everything behind him. Looking at Xu Qingjiu's appearance, Xu Mulin thought secretly in his heart. But he did not forget to give Xu Qingjiu the greatest relief in words,"Don't worry. Whatever you want to do, do it bravely. Senior brother will be behind you to check it. You can see me when you look back."

Looking at Xu Mulin's appearance, Xu Qingjiu immediately felt at ease, as if no matter what mistakes he made in the future, he could eventually find a way to start over. Xu Qingjiu looked at Xu Mulin and smiled, and replied cheerfully:"Okay."

After Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu took a simple rest, they went to the high balcony early the next day.

After the chaos that day, where is the Longyin Village now? Those who escaped by chance were not They all became birds and beasts and dispersed.

"What? Died from vomiting blood? Not committing suicide?"Du Shengyang asked angrily while looking at the person kneeling in front of him.

"Yes, the younger one was right next to him, and he was very sure that Xie Chi had indeed vomited blood and died, as if...It's like being poisoned."The person kneeling on the ground lowered his head to the ground as much as possible.

"Poisoned? What poison? Can you still wait for him to finish everything in detail before you have an attack? After asking the person in front of him, Du Shengyang suddenly remembered something and said to himself:"Didn't I give him the antidote for this month on that day?" I deliberately stayed in Wuzhou that day and waited to remind him. I didn't expect that Xie Chi was really determined to fight me to the death. I really underestimated him before."After saying that, Du Shengyang looked at the person in front of him and said coldly:"Leaving you in front of Xie Chi for so many years will be of no use at the critical moment. Then why did you leave Longyin Village to find me? Are you still waiting for me to do it myself?

As soon as the people whose faces were already on the ground heard Du Shengyang's words, they touched their heads to the ground one after another and begged for mercy:"Master, have mercy on me, Master, have mercy on me, that day."...That day I stepped forward to stop Xie Chi, but I didn’t know where the hidden weapon came from. As soon as the villain was hit by the hidden weapon, he fell completely powerless. The other disciples of Longyin Village did not dare to act rashly, so I asked Xie Chi to betray the leader. Got it"

"Having said all that, hasn’t it still accomplished nothing?"Du Shengyang looked at the trembling man on the ground and sneered. After speaking, he turned to Du Mo and asked,"How is it? Can the situation be controlled?"

"Reporting back to the sect leader, I have sent out all the disciples around me, but so far, the news that has come is not very good. Many sects that had old friends with Meihua Villa or received favors from Luoqiu Valley have brought many disciples to Luzhou. went"

"There is no movement in Guxia Village? Who is currently taking care of the situation in Pi?"

"There has been no news at Guxia Village so far. Several sects that had friendship with Li Haoyuan originally went to Luzhou, but for some unknown reason, they suddenly disappeared....Everyone in the Yuanyang sect, including the eldest brother and the remaining disciples of the village, is currently taking care of them. After the leader called for orders that day, I came with all the disciples I could."

"Well, that loser is an eyesore to me. If he could take care of all these things for me, it wouldn't be in vain for him to be my Du Shengyang's son for so many years. You continue to arrange for your disciples to ease the situation, and then return to Luzhou when the matter is over. Wuzhou is considered safe now. After saying that, Du Shengyang got up and walked towards the bed. As he walked, he said lightly:"I've been working hard on you recently, so go down and rest early." That man had done his best, so he just rewarded him with a meal and then threw it down the mountain stream to feed the animals."

As soon as Du Shengyang finished speaking, the people Du Mo waved to him stood up and fell to the ground and begged for mercy. The shouts made the birds in the forest flutter their wings and flee away. Du Mo only raised his eyes and looked outside. At one glance, the shouting stopped instantly

"You go down too."Du Shengyang leaned on the bed and said with his eyes closed.

"Yes, my son resigned and the leader took a rest early."After that, Du Mo exited the door and closed it.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Du Shengyang opened his eyes and looked at the door. The moonlight cast down and seeped through the window paper. Faced with the current situation of internal and external troubles, how dare Du Shengyang sleep peacefully. Du Shengyang will All his sons were taught like hounds. If they were not ruthless, or if they were vicious but unable to match them, they would be abandoned by Du Shengyang and thrown away from afar. But Du Shengyang never expected that he would be so soon. Facing danger, Du Shengyang was only worried that one day his eyes would be pecked out by a goose. Therefore, Du Shengyang could only hope that his son would understand what he just said, but he was also afraid that his son would over-understand what he said. At this moment, he was already thinking about how to get his position as the leader faster. Du Shengyang didn't want to sit still and wait for death, so he had to ask for help, but until now, there was no news.

"Master, a secret message from Master Du."

Qi Kaiyuan was sitting in Xie Chi's study, drinking and fiddling with the chessboard on the table. He just said lightly without raising his head:"What did you say?"

"Master Du is now with his son Du Mo, with the location written on it, asking the master for help"

"But in Wuzhou territory?"

"Yes, Master knows things like a god"

"There is no need for me to think too much. Following those people to Luzhou in an aggressive manner was just a show. Du Shengyang, a tortoise like Du Shengyang who hides when trouble comes, naturally knows that Wuzhou is the safest place at this moment. Let Boyong and Lingjun go explore first. I haven't had much contact with Du Shengyang's son, so as not to become the next Xie Chi and waste my energy. But if you are as capable as Xie Chi, you might as well support him and do things for me."

"It's Master...It’s just that Lingjun and Boyong are still looking for traces of the two women, and Xie Chi’s body has not yet been found by the disciples."

"No need. They are all dead, and what happened to those two people is irrelevant now. No matter what they say, they are heading towards Du Shengyang. Du Shengyang can no longer be saved. As for Xie Chi’s body...Forget it, when we find Du Shengyang, we should also know the whereabouts of 'Yun Hebai'. Go arrange it"

"yes."

Because the purpose was determined, Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu headed north in the direction of Jiangling Mansion. They only stopped briefly to rest and inquire about news. But because the weather was getting colder and colder, and there was more wind and snow in the north, The two of them traveled for almost a month before they finally entered Taiyuan. In another three to five days, they would reach Taiyuan Mansion. Perhaps thinking that when they reached their own territory, the young man on the high balcony didn't think there would be enough. A bold person came here to stir up trouble. Li Jihua's whereabouts had been completely exposed. Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu only made inquiries and learned about Li Jihua's whereabouts from many people.

"Almost all of them were news from more than a month ago, but they were all consistent with the previous inferences and the news obtained from Xie Chi."Now that the situation has been confirmed, Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu are also relieved. At this moment, they are also imitating Qi Kaiyuan, sitting in the private room on the second floor of Yuehua Building, watching the people coming and going below. However, although It has been confirmed that Li Jihua is in Taiyuan Mansion now, but Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu don't know what reason to visit Gaoyangyang. Nowadays, Gaoyangyang is also experiencing internal disputes. Visiting rashly will probably bring some bad things to Tianzong. Influence, after the chaos in Longyin Village, the Yuanyang Sect also made enemies on all sides. No one from the Tianzong asked too much and just stayed out of the matter. Originally, Xu Mulin and Xu Qingjiu came forward to help Li Jichu, and it was all in their own names.

"Senior brother, don't worry. Now that we have found this place, there is no danger to Jihua now. Let's take our time. Maybe we will meet on the avenue one day. We may not have to climb up to the door of the high balcony."It's not a wealthy place along the way, and the food is very casual. Now that he has arrived in Taiyuan, Xu Qingjiu feels that if he doesn't add more, he will not be able to mobilize any inner strength to hold the sword. At this moment, he is facing a large table of delicacies. , I couldn’t care too much anymore, I was afraid that I would have to put everything about Li Jihua out of my mind so that I could eat more delicious food. However, looking at Xu Mulin’s thoughtful look, Xu Qingjiu still offered words of comfort. Looking at

Xu Qingjiu completely immersed in the delicious food and eating with gusto, Xu Mulin filled a bowl of clear soup and handed it to Xu Qingjiu,"In the past ten days or so, I have indeed become less bitter, but I still eat slower. If you eat too much at once, you will feel comfortable now, but you will feel uncomfortable in your spleen and stomach later. If you like to eat, I will bring you over tomorrow. We couldn't think of a solution for a while, so we stayed in Taiyuan for some time."

Xu Qingjiu, who was a little anxious to eat, happened to choke on a large piece of roasted mutton. He took the soup handed over by Xu Mulin and drank a few mouthfuls before he recovered.

"good."After being choked, Xu Qingjiu also felt that his appetite had decreased a lot. After taking a few more mouthfuls of soup, he just ate some more casually and stopped holding chopsticks. He followed Xu Mulin and watched the people coming and going on the street. He was in a daze."Tianzong has contacts with various sects in the world, but does not have many close contacts with most of the sects. People from Gaoyangdao can only meet him every five years when Tianzong holds a memorial ceremony for the past leaders.. Over at Guxia Manor, brother Jichu had said before that he almost never had any contact with him and only met each other at banquets of other sects. Therefore, it is impossible to borrow someone's name to visit him. In this case, it is better to change his name and surname and say that he came because of his reputation. But, I'm afraid it's even less likely to happen."Maybe he was full after eating, but Xu Qingjiu was so confused that he forgot what he had just said for a moment, and started analyzing the visit to the high balcony in a serious manner.

Xu Mulin didn't realize anything was wrong at all, but Looking at Xu Qingjiu, he said:"It's okay, take your time, don't be in a hurry. I thought, it won't take many days. When everything is over and I return to Tianzong, I'm afraid there will be no reason to go out for fun. In the past few days, let's take a few lazy days in Taiyuan, okay?"

"OK."Xu Qingjiu also looked back at Xu Mulin,"It's just that since the Longyin Village incident, everything in the world has been in chaos. We are taking a break here now, but we don't know that Tianzong and Ziqingtang can always stay out of it in the future. ?"

Along the way, Xu Qingjiu looked more carefully at the current or long-term world. Many problems had to be faced, and his thoughts gradually became heavier. Xu Mulin was thinking of saying something to comfort Xu Qingjiu, Xu Qingjiu spoke again:"Forget it, let's talk about it one day. Things that haven't happened yet, thinking about it now are just unfounded worries, and we have let down the free time now.""

"People who are content with staying out of trouble are like this at all times, and people who are uneasy may have already been involved in it. We should do our own thing first. If the day comes, taking timely action is the best response. There is no need to consider others, just make the choice you think is right."

"good. Xu Qingjiu looked at Xu Mulin and smiled, then thought of something again, looked at Xu Mulin and asked softly:"Brother, we will always make the same choice and go in the same direction, right?""

Xu Mulin didn't know why Xu Qingjiu suddenly asked such a question, but he still thought about it very carefully before answering:"You may not always make the same choice, but you will definitely go in the same direction."

Hearing this, Xu Qingjiu regained his relaxed and cheerful expression and looked at Xu Mulin, as if to say: It doesn't matter what others do, as long as senior brother and I are together, nothing else really matters.

Looking at Xu Qingjiu's look, Xu Mulin was stunned for a moment, then asked with a smile:"What are you laughing at?"

Xu Qingjiu stared at Xu Mulin carefully for a while before turning to look downstairs again. After a long time, he said lightly:"No, I just feel that it's great to be like this now, and it will be like this in the future."

Xu Mulin looked at Xu Qingjiu, and somewhat understood the meaning of Xu Qingjiu's words, but he didn't seem to understand it completely. But looking at Xu Qingjiu's appearance, he already felt very at ease, at ease and satisfied, and replied gently:"Yeah ,Will do."

After eating in the restaurant, they sat and rested for a long time. Then the two of them led horses and wandered slowly on the road, looking for a place to stay. Looking at the people passing by them one by one, Xu Qing Jiu said:"After looking at Jihua's portrait for so long, I can now recognize him across several streets. I just hope that he will not stay on the high balcony all day long and go out to hang out in his free time."

Whatever you think comes to you, but if Xu Qingjiu and Xu Mulin had looked up when they left Yuehua Tower, the person they had been looking for for more than two months would have been freed earlier.
