Raising the Demon

Chapter 179 A Letter From Xijing
The originally anticipated visit seems to have become less amiable.

This negotiation seems to be a trip that doesn't matter to everyone. Regardless of the outcome, everyone is just a pawn pushed out.

Zi Baifeng's sword completely cut off everything from the previous ambiguous and procrastinated atmosphere, making everything chill.

Does this also represent a change in Zi Baifeng's attitude?
Xia Shujie was shocked in his heart, he didn't take Zi Baifeng's identity as a monk seriously, because in the officialdom, many people actually possess unique skills, but still follow the official rules.

But where is this place?
This is a barren land on the frontier, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away. For the first time, he realized that Zi Baifeng is a master among the monks who can kill him with a single sword.

Does he dare?Don't you dare?
Xia Shujie remained silent.

Quietly tucking his tail, leaving behind all the thoughts he had been lingering in his mind just now, showing a harmless smile, Xia Shujie pretended not to have seen the scene just now, suddenly became interested in a wooden barrel, and looked at it very seriously. watch.

But in the same scene, some people saw Zi Baifeng's strength, but also others saw Zi Baifeng's weakness.

"This is..." Zhen Yunhe didn't have any sense of being Xia Junguo's deputy envoy at all. It seemed that the ones who were killed were not members of his mission, but passersby A and B, who were completely insignificant.

His attention was entirely on Zijian.

"This is my father." Zi Baifeng said.

Zhen Yunhe and Zijian exchanged greetings, and Zijian had seen a big scene, neither humble nor overbearing, with thoughtful etiquette.

However, Zi Baifeng never noticed the gleam in Zhen Yunhe's eyes.

All this time, Zhen Yunhe has been carefully observing Zi Baifeng.

The cultivation of this young Monarch Mansion is unfathomable—not unfathomable, but really hard to see through.Before Zi Baifeng brought out his sword, he had never discovered that Zi Baifeng possessed such a terrifying sword technique.

He was steady, and he behaved with discipline, but because of that, it was hard to get to know him.

There are too many legends about him, but most of them are contradictory.

Some people say that he is a pedantic literati, but he is a monk; some people say that he is a god, but he is very knowledgeable.

How is this person?
Zhen Yunhe couldn't feel his pulse, so he didn't act rashly.

But now, Zhen Yunhe felt that he had felt Zi Baifeng's pulse, through other people's wrists.

"Roar..." Zhen Yunhe took a step forward, wanting to make out with Zijian, but Xiaozai suddenly took a step forward, and with a tiger roar, stood in front of him.

The beast's intuition made Xiaozai feel that this person was very dangerous, and it squeezed Zijian behind with its huge body.Don't let Zhen Yunhe get any closer.

"This kid is a bit shy." Zijian explained to Zhen Yunhe, stroking Xiaozai's head with a smile.

Zhen Yunhe took a few steps back, as if he didn't take all this to heart at all, and turned around to delve into other things.

Zi Baifeng led the crowd around the area around the Danmu Sacred Tree, and then came back somewhat dispirited.

……

Zi Baifeng was sitting in the study, processing paperwork. A friendly and peaceful visit in the morning turned into a disappointment. Jie Xun didn't board the boat at all, and left Jiuyan Township directly.

Someone knocked on the door, and a clerk walked in, looking cautious, as if Zi Baifeng was a man-eating tiger.

"Say." Zibai didn't raise his head, and wrote vigorously.

The affairs in Mengcheng are very complicated, and now Zi Baifeng has less and less time to distract himself from his own affairs.

"My lord, a messenger came from Xijing, and he said that he wants to see you, my lord."

"En." Zi Baifeng hummed, not sure if he was sure or not, but the clerk cautiously reminded: "This envoy is carrying a token from the former lord."

"Huh?" Zi Baifeng raised his head, "Let him in."

The clerk turned around and went out to communicate. Not long after, the door was dark, and a man in gray came in from the door.

His face is full of wind and dust, his eyes are full of red silk, when he walks, he walks like a dragon and a tiger, very vigorous.

This is a person in the army, not only that, he is also a person in the practice.

"Your Excellency?" Zi Baifeng stood up and gave up his seat.

"I, Chu San, came here on the order of the third young master of my family, and sent a letter to my lord, please read it." The gray-clothed man looked at Zi Baifeng carefully for a moment, and then took out a letter.

His Majesty the Fujun sent a letter back?

Zi Baifeng knew that Lord Fujun actually had a deep foundation in Xijing and was considered a big family, but he didn't know why Lord Fujun sent the letter this time.

For some reason, Zi Baifeng had a very bad premonition.

"Bai Feng, seeing the words is like a face, you have been away for several months, have you been all right?"

Seeing Lord Fujun's familiar handwriting, Zi Baifeng's smile seemed to appear in front of his eyes.

I was a little scribbled, and I seemed to have written it in a hurry, so I sent someone to send it over.

"After several months of running around, all previous efforts have been wasted. It is not an act, but the general trend cannot be done. Therefore, I wrote a book and sent it to Baifeng."

"My Wang clan is not a royal family, but it is also a well-known family in Xijing. I think I was young and energetic and ran away in anger, but now I know that manpower is sometimes exhausted, and the destiny cannot be violated. Today I return to the Wang clan, but I have never had any kindness to Mengcheng. Forget it for a moment. Mengcheng fell, manpower is hard to find, but you, Baifeng, don’t need to live and die with Mengcheng. Today I am waiting for you in Xijing. If you have a wish, Baifeng, you can put forward it. I will do my best. With your great talent, Baifeng You and I are each other's arms, so why worry about not being able to show off your ambitions. After all, Mengcheng is a small place, how can we live forever here."

Zi Baifeng let out a long sigh in his heart.

After the Fu Jun went to Xijing, he didn't know what he did and what he compromised, but in the scribbled handwriting, he could see a little loneliness and a little helplessness.

Beyond those promises, there is an unspeakable disappointment.

Zi Baifeng had long known that Fujun was from a famous family, but he didn't know what kind of influence the Wang family had in Xijing, but judging from Fujun's letter, it seemed that Fujun could do whatever Zi Baifeng proposed. help him do it.

"Bai Feng, you are a genius from heaven, and Qian Shan is also a talented general. As the saying goes, a thousand soldiers are easy to get, but a general is hard to find. If you and Qian Shan come to Xijing, you will definitely be able to do something earth-shattering, and your name will go down in history. Mengcheng is really in a whirlpool right now, a quagmire that's sinking deep, and it's best to get out as soon as possible."

Zi Baifeng raised his head, he never thought that he would have a way out, and that the Fujun had prepared such a way out for himself and Luo Qianshan with great pains.

But it was precisely because the way out was already in front of him that he really hesitated.

Just pull away and leave?

He took his family with him and left his hometown, and has nothing to do with Mengcheng ever since.

It doesn't matter if it's Xia Junguo or Zhuan'er Kingdom, don't care if it's Xia Jun's special envoy, Zhuan'er's imperial envoy, don't care if it's a bird or mouse watching Danmuzong, don't care if it's inspecting the immortal four demon kings.

Abandon everything, put down all the burdens, go to the world of flowers and flowers in Xijing alone, enjoy the joy of life in the metropolis, and live this life carefree.

Is that the end?Give up everything you insisted on before, give up the hard work you have put in, abandon the people who trust you, and abandon the monsters you raised with your own hands?
But if this is not the case, so what?
what can i do
Zi Baifeng took a deep breath, folded up the letter, and told the clerk waiting outside the door: "Go and call General Luo."

A quarter of an hour later, Luo Qianshan had already opened the door and entered.

"Bai Feng..." Seeing an outsider, he quickly cupped his fists and said, "My lord."

"Qian Shan, you came just in time." Zi Baifeng handed him the letter.

Luoqianshan still knew a lot of big characters, and compared them with his thick fingers, he finished reading each word and thought for a while before he understood the subtext of the letter.

"Your Majesty wants us to go?" Qian Shan was overjoyed.

To him, Fujun is like his father, and his feelings for Fujun are like that of Zi Baifeng to Zijian.

It was an unspeakable happiness for him to be able to return to Fu Jun's side again.

It's like a wanderer always looking forward to returning to his hometown.

"Yes, Qianshan, you go with this messenger, I will let Hongyu drive you in a cloud car." Zi Baifeng laughed.

"Bai Feng, aren't you going?" Luo Qianshan's eyes widened.

"I have a lot of family members, and Mengcheng still needs to deal with a lot of things. I will leave after a while. If you are okay, Qianshan, you can hand over the work at hand, and I will send you out to carry out a task." Zibai air duct.

Luo Qianshan looked at Zi Baifeng suspiciously, frowned and said: "If you want to go together, don't you have any ideas?"

"What can I think?" Zi Baifeng smiled, "Don't forget, I have bluestone, and I will catch up with you in an instant."

"That's true." Luo Qianshan has seen the power of Daqingshi before, and he slapped his hands in an instant, and said: "Then I will go quickly, and I can tell you that you are not allowed to move my weapons. Keep the things for me, and wait for me to come back in the future..."

Zi Baifeng nodded, it should be that Luo Qianshan was only a warrior after all, he didn't realize the seriousness of the matter, he left happily, and came back with a package not long after.

When he was about to leave, Luo Qianshan suddenly turned around, grabbed Zi Baifeng's hand, and stared at him with wide eyes.

Zi Baifeng knew that if he said at this time that he didn't want Luo Qianshan to leave, Luo Qianshan would definitely stay.

It's not that Luo Qianshan doesn't worry about Zi Baifeng, but Fujun's side is more attractive, and people are always willing to believe what they want to believe.

Bai Feng is very powerful, nothing will happen.

Bai Feng will catch up soon, maybe when I arrive in Xijing, he is already drinking with Fu Jun.

Luo Qianshan convinced himself like this.

"Bai Feng, I'm leaving." After waiting for a while, Luo Qianshan finally let go of his hand, clenched his fist, tightened the long knife around his waist, and then raised his head. red.

They are comrades who fight side by side, and they are brothers who support each other.

Countless times, they sacrificed their lives to save each other when they needed each other most.

From being hostile to each other, to understanding each other, to relying on each other.

In this world, there are still such friendships, which is inexplicably touching.

"Bon voyage." Zi Baifeng smiled and watched Luo Qianshan stride away.The man in gray also followed behind Luo Qianshan, before going out the door, he turned his head and took a deep look at Zi Baifeng.

After Luo Qianshan left, Zi Baifeng raised his head, took a deep breath, and looked under the eaves.

A pair of swallows did not know when they made a nest under the eaves, and the baby swallow poked its head out of the nest, chirping.

At that moment, the loneliness as deep as ink soaked Zi Baifeng's whole heart.
