Chapter 65: Dreaming of Du Kang

that time, not only will you be at their mercy, but also your brothers, your friends, your sister..."She smiled, dropping the black-clad figure from her hand. "So, you have a choice now."Almost as soo...Whoosh whoosh whoosh

In the courtyard, there was a tree that two people could barely hug. It was nameless. Its leaves were as big as an adult's palm. When the wind blew, they would rustle loudly. 。Like clapping 。Chen ZhiDao slept soundly in his bedroom, unaware of the passing hours. 。This is a manifestation of being completely drained. 。Of course, probably he wouldn't want to wake up for a while. 。As the owner of The Fishing Sea Building, I do have responsibilities, but during this time, it's best for The Fishing Sea Building to do nothing. 。He lay here napping, uninfluenced by anyone, was the greatest responsibility. 。The south wind blew leaves outside the window, but the person inside sat at their desk, oblivious. 。Jiang Wang has been sitting here for a long time. 。But nothing else was done, only a line was drawn on paper from one end to the other. 。Then stared at the line for a long time. 。His time was precious. The three dharma images were still in another courtyard, studying sealing arts and poring over ancient scriptures. Before they fell completely to the depths of the Heavenly Dao, they would not let go of any possibility of salvation. 。He, however, wasted a lot of time sitting here, watching an ordinary line. 。The line is actually endless. 。 。But because it falls on paper, the end is simply the edge of the paper. 。Because it is drawn with a brush dipped in ink, the end can also be a residue of ink or the life of the brush. 。 。The power of heaven is also infinite, which is precisely why he cannot resist and gradually loses control. 。To struggle against the boundless laws of heaven with finite human strength, and to persist until now without being completely overwhelmed, is already an extremely tenacious display. 。But what if the power of Heaven were to be placed on paper What if the power of Heaven were to be confused with ink and brushstrokes Would the power of Heaven, therefore, come to an end 。Jiang Wang suddenly understood what he should be resisting. It wasn't Heaven, but the relationship between Heaven and humans. 。That which is coming, the one named "Jiang Wang", is a celestial being. 。A sudden realization opened up the world, and a brand new perspective unfolded before my eyes. 。After being stuck for so long, the article is finally written and has a new chapter. 。The Tai Xu Guding has been flickering for a long time, and people have been passing messages through the Tai Xu Illusionary Realm one after another. 。Jiang Wang, lost in thought, ignored everything. 。The most important thing, and there is only one. 。 。Only when I had made up my mind did I casually grasp the Tai Xu Jade. 。Perhaps there are other ways to suppress the celestial beings' human forms... he thought. 。Then he received news of Li Longchuan's death. 。...such a jarring intrusion into life... 。A tranquil afternoon, suddenly a clap of thunder! Direct, indirect, roundabout... different ways of expressing. 。Yen Fu, Xu Xiangqian, and even Ye Qingyu from Yun Guo, Zuo Guangshu from Chu Guo, Zhao Ruocheng from Mu Guo... From all corners of the land, through different channels, time and again they have verified 。Verify this message, it's true and accurate. 。How could there be nothing false Jiang Wang sat dumbfounded. 。The truth is that it was the Dragon's Whisk Arrow gifted by Li Longchuan, a technique of town guarding passed down from him. It was friendship overflowing on that piece of paper, a testament to our years together. 。

It shouldn't be this kind of message

His thoughts, icy to the core, froze over in his mind. 。...and the emotions that have sunk to the deep sea floor are churning sullenly... 。He felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. He didn't know what exactly was off. 。Birth, aging, sickness, and death, the ways of heaven are eternal. 。Who can escape death Isn't it natural to die It's just that there are always sounds and images echoing in my ears and before my eyes. 。The first glimpse of the celestial realm, a youthful warrior with jade adornment upon his forehead. 。This is a high-profile introduction by Xu Gaogao: "This is Li Longchuan" 。"He's quite the archer!" At the training ground of Marquis Cui's mansion, one arrow sent forth with a single sword. 。On the streets of Linzi, swaggering about 。In a world of beauty and luxury, glasses clinked merrily. 。We also waved goodbye, promising to see each other again. 。Once drunk at dawn, with boundless enthusiasm. 。Pointing out heroes throughout the ages, they all say nothing compares to this. Laughing and saying that events both ancient and modern, I could also be involved in. 。A touch of playfulness, a dash of nonchalance. 。"Brother Jiang! What are you doing Come on! Hongxiu is calling you over! Brother Yanxian, please treat us!""Jiang Wang, don't practice! I'm having wine right now, you're ruining the mood. There's a beautiful woman sitting next to me, and you're still practicing here Stop it! Stop it! You are such a hateful person, when you're working hard, can't you carry someone on your back If my grandmother sees this, she will scold me again!""Jiang Wang! Jiang Wang! Come out and have some fun!" The memory is like a kite that has been cut off, flying higher and farther away. 。But the sound is still in my ears, and the smile is still before my eyes. 。He was a promising young master, who should have had unlimited possibilities. 。But it's no longer possible. 。Li Longchuan is dead. 。Li Longchuan is dead. 。Li Longchuan is dead. 。I should be sad… Sitting behind her desk, Jiang Wang looked up and out the window. 。Looking at that tree, the wind whispered, "Why don't I feel sad" *Pataacck* 。What fell down and landed on the table 。Jiang Wang instinctively reached out to touch, but when he retracted his hand, there was only a black smudge on his finger. 。You think it's a raindrop that has fallen. 。or a single tear 。It turned out to be just years of disrepair, a lump of dust accumulated on the roof beams. 。...a little while ago... 。The wind blows through the four directions, and Huai Island is bustling with activity. 。The war that happened across the sea had no impact here. 。The unfolding and collapse of the ancient road were both magnificent spectacles. 。Although the "Operation Jinghai" failed, the human race's overwhelming advantage over the marine race is also evident. 。Generations faced the sea's wrath, almost utterly wiped out in a single wave. The rebels' defiance was swiftly crushed. 。The might of the Human Race suppressing all heavens, invincible throughout the world, is displayed here. 。So this giant island, standing at the very front line after the Realm of Illusion, was actually thriving with peace and prosperity. 。A woman with white eyebrows, dressed in a blue robe the color of the sea, sat alone by the window of the tavern. 。There is only a pot of wine in front of her, but she does not drink it. 。After being rebuilt, the buildings on the island are quite different from before. 。just like this Qingpingyue Wine House located at Qiaogao Reef, although it still retains its old name, there is no trace of its former atmosphere. 。Once, that massive oar-shaped green stone had been shattered during the disaster. 。The "Qingping Le" wine, which made the Qingping Le Restaurant famous, has also been swallowed by the sea along with the former restaurant and its former owner. 。The new chef, brought in from somewhere by the new owner who had nothing to do with the past, has taken over and the dishes are not as good as they used to be. 。The Qingao Reef, where the "Qingao" (a kind of shellfish) once thrived, is gone. The Qingpingyue Wine House, famous for its lost "Qingpingyue" wine, has vanished as well. 。When the Dìng Hǎi Lóu was swaying precariously on the brink of collapse, the helpless elders guarding the Dìng Hǎi Lóu sat there. 。This world is somewhat humorous. 。Zhu Biqiong often comes here to sit. Her old residence is no longer accessible, as it is now the headquarters of the Zhenhai Alliance. 。A small bamboo pavilion, a dilapidated courtyard with an old fence, who knows what it has been turned into by now 。She was not used to living on Xiaoyueya Island, where there were no white-eye rhododendrons. 。Of course, the island of Taiwan also... 。If there are no people, how can there be flowers left Those flowers must be extinct. 。But even on Huai Island, you can still see the bridled tern. Sometimes they come back with fish and slowly peck at it on the beach. 。She then slowly watched the feeding process. 。Practice while you watch. 。She gradually developed the habit of cultivating at any time and place, but she couldn't remember when this habit started. 。A broad-shouldered man with a wide face sat opposite them, his figure flickering in the light. 。This person really has a presence. 。Just like the Tiger Mountain, raising one's eyes sees clouds low. 。"Bamboo jade" the man asked. 。Zhu Biqiong pressed the evolving art in her palm. The remnants of the evolving mist, humid and cool, moistened her palm. 。She bowed her head slightly in greeting: "Greetings, Immortal Lou." 。"I've always known that there was a white-browed woman at the Diaolou of Fishing, she is the Seafaring Prodigy." 。The building was about ten stories high. Sitting there, it looked like a mountain. Compared to the slender and delicate Bamboo Biqiong, it seemed even more imposing: “This is the first time I’ve seen... " 。"We didn't meet before because the Plan for Peace in the Sea was inevitable. After we dominated the East China Sea, we would return and consolidate our gains." 。Everything near the sea is within our embrace. Whatever anyone's affairs are, they can all be accomplished with patience and deliberation. 。Now the Jinghai Plan has collapsed, and some details cannot be overlooked. 。Time has long worn down the youthful look between her brows, and today's Zhu Biqiong will never again seem timid. 。In the face of this distinguished figure from Zhongzhou, she remained composed and unafraid: "It is an honor for me to be heard by such a great person." 。A prodigious talent such as yourself, time is precious. I shall not waste it on pleasantries. 。After a brief introduction, Lou said straight to the point: "The current situation near the sea is clear for all to see." 。Your forum moderator has gone to the divine realm, thinking they can avoid making a choice like that. 。Little did they know that today's Diaohai Lou is no longer able to maintain neutrality. 。Those near the sea, they don't go left, they go right, they always have to choose a side. 。If one is caught between two sides, one might not even have a place to stand. Both sides will destroy their own kin. 。He was too blunt, which wasn't very respectful of the listener's feelings. 。It's not arrogance, but a diplomatic habit. 。This has always been the strong stance of Jing Guo since it held the center. 。If he were gentle and humble that day, it would only raise suspicion. 。Zhu Biqing held her left sleeve in her left hand, and a wine jug in her right. With calm grace, she poured a cup of wine for him. The liquor was clear and its aroma crisp. 。“Although Jing Guo is the greatest empire in the world, Qi people have a strong presence near the sea…” She asked slowly, “Your country wants all the island forces to choose sides now Is that a little too hasty” "Right here on this Huai Island, there are nine elite soldiers of Qi, 100,000 Xia corpses, Qi Duhou, and Zhenhai Alliance..." 。And I'm still sitting here, giving you a choice. 。"Lou stretched out both hands, his bearing radiating confidence: 'You should all have seen the determination of the Jing Guo." 。He, the number one expert in Zhongyu this time, intends to leverage the power of Jinghai and achieve the pinnacle in one fell swoop. 。But the Jinghai Plan collapsed unexpectedly, and he temporarily halted his actions. 。For all things to be harmonious, one attains the supreme and true honor. 。There is more possibility for further advancement and transcendence. 。As the number one expert in Zhongyu for so many years, of course he wouldn't be content with reaching the peak and stopping there. 。However, transcendence is the most difficult path, the only one throughout eternity. 。A slight difference can lead to a huge discrepancy. 。Not enough is not enough, one step short, no possibility of an impact. 。Now he has put his cultivation aside first, personally coming to lay out the affairs of the near sea. It is indeed necessary to make some amends and allow no one to back down. 。In the near sea, all families are either friends or enemies, there is no other way. 。Zhu Bi Qing silently watched the real person before her. 。I just feel that Jingguo, although powerful, is like a gambler who has lost his money and gone red-eyed. He's eager to win something back in the near sea. 。Master once said that gamblers in this situation are the most dangerous, dangerous to others and dangerous to themselves. 。She said: "Bi-Qiong has always only known cultivation, not concerning herself with sect affairs. " 。The Lou Zhenren found me and said these things, he probably got the wrong person. 。"No, no, I didn't come to you to choose a Hai Lou." 。"Lou Yue gazed at her, "I'm asking you, Zhu Biqiong—do you want to come to Jing Guo and develop The dragon is trapped in shallow water, the phoenix falls into thorns. It's truly a pity! Don't waste your time in a small place, burying your talent." 。Once the formidable stronghold of Dian Hai Lou, now it’s just a small place... “Master Lou!” A cold voice suddenly rang out: "Is there anything that can't be spoken directly to our adults My Bi Qiong is timid, please don't scare her." 。 a piece of origami unfolding 。A tall and voluptuous mature woman stood behind Zhu Biqiong. 。She had eyes that were cold and cruel, out of proportion to her looks. Her every glance, every twitch of an eyebrow, spoke volumes of ruthlessness. 。There is no need to conceal it at this moment. 。The people of Jing Guo forcefully pushed forward with past plans, and the Diao Hai Lou was unable to refuse. 。But now the plan has failed, and Jing people are still trying to drag Diaohailou down with them. This is completely disregarding Diaohailou's feelings, wanting him dead - Qi people are not sincere, Jing people are despicable, facing each other from afar, Diaohailou still has a chance to breathe. 。Now that two tigers are fighting over a deserted island, they have nowhere to go! Not to mention young and inexperienced people like Zhu Biqing who would be at a loss. She herself is no less bewildered. Even if the East China Sea is vast, where can the Diu Hai Lou go The lou chuckled softly. 。Qin Zhen's current firmness, in his eyes, was all bluster and no substance. 。If Jing Guo hadn't intervened, the Fishing Sea Tower would have been destroyed when the Illusory Realm and the Sealed Realm were locked. 。Even the most ruthless real-life killers near the sea... I don't know if there's a chance to replace a few well-known Qiren. 。"Today, you're the one standing here posing!" 。“Lou You still looked at Zhu Biqiong: “When I look for the children, of course it’s about small matters. The big things we will talk about later – Zhu Biqiong, let’s make a simple deal.” 。Due to the rebellion of the Longjun River Dragon, this Pinghai Operation has been a failure. My Dou'e army has urgently retreated into the Mystical Realm. 。If you don't have anything important to do recently, would you be willing to go and meet The reward is negotiable! You name your terms!" Because of Gao Jie's restrictions before his death, the entire Spirit Realm now places Shen Lin above all else. 。While countries like Heavenly Pure Nation and other minor domains have higher combat power, they existed before the Sealing World and cannot be moved to other realms. 。Zhu Biqiong's strength is definitely top-notch at this level, as evidenced by her performance at the Dragon Palace banquet. 。Of course, Jingguo has its own prodigies. Things are not necessarily dependent on her. 。But when it comes to transactions, it's the easiest thing to fall into a routine. You give and take, and she gets closer to Jing Guo. 。Qin Zheng did not speak at this time. 。She didn't really want to influence Zhu Biqiong's decision. After all, the current Diaohailou was truly in decline, a place where talent was wasted. 。This is not something she could change, nor is it something she didn't try. 。But the environment was undeniably cramped to this extent, sunlight and rain passing over other houses. 。Without a successor to hold the fort, it would be difficult to carry on the legacy for ten thousand years and weather the storms. 。"When the master was alive, he always taught Biqiong to prioritize the well-being of the common people." 。"Zhú Bì Qióng raised her eyes and said, “The Dou'ěr Army traveled far to the East Sea, fighting for the sake of humanity.” 。What Zhu Biqiong can do, she will certainly not refuse. 。“I initially learned from Gu Huixin to resolve the hatred between Gu Huixin and Jiang Wang.” 。At that time, she was convinced that Gu Huai's heart belonged to profit above all else, that he was a talented individual of immense value, replaceable by someone even more valuable. 。But after spending time together, she unexpectedly found in Gu Huai Xin a feeling of both mentorship and fatherly care that she had never experienced before. 。Your sister always said that Gu Huai-xin was only good to you because he saw your talent and wanted you to work for him. Don't be so naive. 。But she thought, no matter what the reason for starting, those cares, affections, and trust were real, weren't they If the feelings experienced were real, that was enough. 。Of course, Gu Huixian had never taught her to prioritize the well-being of all beings. What Gu Huixian taught her was to put herself first in everything, a lie spoken with such impassiveness that it seemed like the truth. 。 。"Good! You have both the talent of the East China Sea and the virtue of embracing the world. I was right about you!" 。"The master was very satisfied with this answer and took out a token: “You take this token and go. When you see its valiant soldiers, they will naturally understand that you are one of them.” 。Time is tight, depart when you are ready. 。"I, along with Qin Zhenren, are still here. There are some matters—" Before the words could finish, a sound that echoed throughout Huai Island cut him off — "Lou Yue, come out!" 。"Da Qi Tian An Ping, today I ask you to account for your crimes!" Though the voice wasn't loud, nor heavy, nor even cold, it was so clear, leaving no room for ambiguity. 。Upon hearing this, all those present were deeply moved. 。Lou pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows slightly. 。Then Zhu Biqiong took the token with both hands and said softly, "It seems that the determination of the people of Qi is even more resolute than Lou Zhenshi's." 。rectly gathered a clump of liquor from the wine altar and pressed it into the ground with his palm. The clump of liquor seeped through the bricks and into the soil.Then cover the remaining tiger bone...
