Tibetan Scripture Pavilion

Bai Lian really lived here leisurely. Chu Ze prepared three meals a day, sometimes food, sometimes game, taking good care of him, but never communicating.Standing in the forest, Bai Lian took a deep breath. He actually felt that this kind of life was too extravagant and too beautiful. Of course, if Chu Ze didn't regard him as an enemy, Chu Ze would still be the child who loved him. perfect.Sighing, he was about to leave when he heard the sound of a sword piercing the sky from the forest. Bai Lian searched for the sound, and saw Chu Ze practicing his sword on a flat ground, every move was chic and powerful , the internal strength brought up the surrounding air, and the fallen leaves swirled in the air and drifted around with the sword energy.

Bai Lian was about to appreciate it, when he saw Chu Ze's eyes suddenly sharp, and after turning around, he flew straight at him, with the sword pointing at Bai Lian's neck, and Chu Ze stood straight opposite, the two of them met each other but had nothing to do. Word,

"Why do you..."

Chu Ze gritted his teeth and said three words, but there was no more to say. Bai Lian frowned, waiting for his words, but Chu Ze withdrew his sword and said with his hands behind his back:

"Most of you have been injured, so let's leave now. If we meet again on the battlefield in the future, and you still harm the common people for the court, I will definitely not let you go."

After finishing speaking, Chu Ze gave Bai Lian a vicious look, which contained complicated emotions.Bai Lian looked at him, unable to suppress the pain in his heart, and just about to say something, Chu Ze left without looking back.Bai Lian stood there stupidly, watching Chu Ze go farther and farther, with a bitter taste in his mouth, he gritted his teeth forbearance.

Although Mo Beihan captured Xiangbei this time, he was seriously injured. The emperor Bailiying went out of the city to meet the general himself, and rewarded him ten thousand taels so that he could recuperate and rest.

"Why didn't Prince An come back?"

Bailiying sat on the throne and looked at the kneeling generals below. One of them told the emperor about Xiangbei City, but Bailiying sat up straight in surprise.

"There is such a thing? What is the origin of that young man? He was able to hurt the general."

Everyone expressed their ignorance, but a general said:

"But this person has a very close relationship with Prince An. The general saw that he was about to succeed, but Prince An gave up his life to protect that person."

Bailiying frowned, looking unhappy.

"Your Majesty, Prince An is missing this time, but he is accompanied by a traitor. He will become our enemy in the future, so we have to guard against it."

Baili Ying frowned and thought for a while, then sat back treacherously,

"Don't worry, Prince An's heart is with the court, and he will definitely return. For the rest, we can only wait for Prince An to come back and ask the truth..."

A few days later, Bai Lian drove back to the court alone, and was called by the emperor to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to celebrate his triumphant return that night.

"Third brother has worked hard on this trip, and I should respect you for my brother."

Bai Lian drank the wine in the glass expressionlessly, and said in a cold voice:

"My concubine..."

"Hey, the third brother is on the go, so the emperor should take good care of his family. Concubine Jin is very good, and she lives comfortably in the harem. It's getting cold, and I sent someone to deliver brocade quilts and cotton clothes a few days ago, so there is no need for the third brother to worry." .”

Bai Lian frowned, and drank three cups in succession.

"Okay! The third brother is very courageous. It is a family, so I won't beat around the bush as a brother. I heard that the person who injured the general this time was a person with extremely strong martial arts. Do you know the third brother?"

Bai Lian frowned, knowing that he couldn't escape this time.

"It's not someone I'm familiar with. It's just that I met a little bit in Jianghu before I returned to court."

"Oh, that's right. The third brother is worthy of being a member of the martial arts world. He values ​​loyalty and is willing to sacrifice his life to save him if he has a little friendship. I really admire him."

The meaning in the words was really obvious, Bai Lian didn't make any reaction, Baili Ying snorted and laughed,

"Third Brother, since you risked your life to save him, I wonder if this martial artist is willing to use it for my court?"

Bai Lian's expression became serious. Seeing that he didn't answer, Bai Liying continued:

"A few days ago, the palace lady said that some people in the harem had inexplicably contracted a strange disease..."

"Don't touch my concubine mother."

Bai Lian gritted his teeth and stared at Baili Ying. Baili Ying was stunned for a moment, and said with a smile:

"Third brother, what are you talking about? Concubine Jin took good care of me when I was young, how can I be ungrateful."

Bai Lian closed his eyes and let out a breath,

"I don't know where he went, and we can't go the same way."

Bailiying raised his eyebrows and thought for a while,

"That's right, I've heard that people in the martial arts world come and go without a trace."

As he said that, he sat close to Bai Lian with a wine glass and laughed:

"Third Brother, relax, relax, why is the family banquet so tense? That's it... A few days ago, the court came to play, and there were some rebellious people in Lingnan who wanted to rebel. You should rest for a few days and bring some soldiers to deal with it. Let's go."

Patting Bai Lian on the shoulder, Bai Liying smiled and drank the wine in his hand, put down the glass, got up and left.When he walked away, Bai Lian smashed the wine glass in his hand, and the texture of his face was all wrinkled.

After Chu Ze left, he was aimless.Everyone thought that he had lost his memory. When he woke up in the Demon Suppressing Tower, he was really at a loss, not knowing when or where he was.But gradually, with his daily practice, the memory came back to his mind bit by bit. In the dead of night, Chu Ze often thought about the past quietly.It's not that he doesn't know who Bai Lian is, the person who has haunted him for many years, the person who he wants to find no matter what.Seeing him, how can I not be touched, not excited.It's just that he never expected that the person who taught him how to be kind and loving is now helping the court to do evil, without any intention of repentance.Chu Ze couldn't understand, is this person him... or just has his skin...

"Master..."

Chu Ze stood on the tip of the cliff, raised his head, and let the wind blow him.

"what are you doing!"

Suddenly a girl standing not far behind him shouted,

"Don't jump! It's not a big deal, everything will be fine! If you die, you'll have nothing!"

Chu Ze was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look over, and saw a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl standing behind her, dressed in neither simple nor gorgeous, her hair was coiled into two buns on her head, her eyes were big, her face was He looked at himself anxiously.

"Listen to me, although it's a chaotic world, there is still hope. My elder brother was poisoned, and I went up to the mountain to collect herbs. Look at this! I actually found ratweed, so my brother won't die. So we have to have hope, don't you think? Come down!"

Chu Ze looked at this clever and cute little girl, and suddenly wanted to laugh. He turned around and walked down the cliff. Seeing this, the little girl let out a sigh of relief.

"Miss misunderstood, I, I just went up to blow some air, and I didn't intend to commit suicide."

"Ah? I'm scared to death. Why are you running there? It's so dangerous."

"The girl is kind-hearted, I am really touched."

"Oh...it's nothing. In this troubled world, I can't do anything. If I can save a life, it's a good deed."

As the little girl spoke, her eyes dimmed.

Chu Ze glanced sideways at the basket on her back,

"Are you a doctor?"

The little girl suddenly laughed,

"Haha, what? I'm not a doctor. My brother was poisoned by someone and his life is in critical condition. I heard that there is ratweed in this mountain, which can cure all poisons. No, I really found it!"

The excitement in the little girl's eyebrows and eyes was obvious, and Chu Ze was inexplicably mobilized into a good mood.

"It's really congratulations girl, this mountain is not safe, you came alone?"

"Don't call me a girl. My surname is Fang Xiaoyu, and my father is Fang Shiliang, the magistrate of Funan County. I sneaked out behind my father's back."

"Miss Xiaoyu, my name is Ning...Chu Ze, it is too dangerous for a girl to go up the mountain alone, and I have to go down the mountain, if you don't mind, then let's go together."

"Okay! I haven't talked to anyone all the way, I'm bored! How old are you? I'm sixteen this year."

"Eighteen this year."

"Two years older than me, then I'll call you Brother Chu, and you can call me Yu'er."

This girl is really likable, Chu Ze smiled, nodded and walked with her.Yu'er has an innocent and cheerful personality, talking and laughing along the way, sometimes making Chu Ze laugh. In the past ten years, Chu Ze probably has never been so happy except for living carefree in the Buddhist scripture pavilion when he was young. Pass.

After going down the mountain with Yu'er, Chu Ze wanted to say goodbye to her.Yu'er stopped him,

"Brother Chu, where are you going?"

"I don't know either, just walk around."

Yu'er hesitated for a moment and said:

"Brother Chu, you carry a sword with you, and you must be good at martial arts. Are you willing to vent your anger on behalf of the common people?"

Yu'er said, her eyes became sharper, Chu Ze thought for a while and asked:

"Being able to benefit the common people is my duty, but what does Miss Yu'er mean?"

Yu'er stared at Chu Ze for a long time, sizing up and hesitating, Chu Ze frowned in confusion,

"Aunt Yu'er..."

"Brother Chu! I believe you! I think you are a good person."

Yu'er looked serious, Chu Ze was about to laugh, but Yu'er said:

"Brother Chu, I'm not cheating on my father... I said that my father is Fang Shiliang, the magistrate of Funan County, and my brother was poisoned. You probably don't know that a year ago, the magistrate of Funan County violated the emperor's order. I refused to re-accept the food of the people in Funan, and was ordered to be beheaded in the street. In order to avenge my father, the people of Funan, led by my brother, set off an uprising army. The current imperial court has long been notorious, and many people in other counties have joined us. The rebel army is getting bigger and bigger, and my brother and several other big brothers became the leaders. Unexpectedly, three months ago, someone poisoned the water source of the rebel army, killing many people. Although my brother was treated in time, he is still in a coma don't wake up."

After hearing this, Chu Ze frowned deeply and became serious.Yu'er is even more righteous,

"Brother Chu, would you like to follow me and join the Lingnan Uprising Army?"

"Lingnan Uprising Army..."

Chu Ze murmured once, and was quiet for a while, then suddenly raised his head to look at Yu'er, with a look of arrogance on his face,

"Okay, since I can benefit the common people, I will definitely do my best to help."

With a smile on my face that I did not misread someone, Yu'er happily ran to Chu Ze's side and took him by the arm, jumping and saying:

"I knew that Brother Chu must be a good person!"

It was a little unnatural for Chu Ze to be held by her arm, but seeing her innocent appearance, his mood felt inexplicably hopeful and open.
