Chapter 68 Family happiness turns the imperial city into a human purgatory

In August, the hot sun arrives.

Jiang Changsheng was enjoying the shade under a tree. Li Min came to visit and informed Eunuch Li of his death, but Jiang Changsheng remained silent.

Li Min said: "Taoist Master, my old man said that following you for the rest of his life will make him return to his youth, as if he were serving Emperor Wu Zu, with high morale and high spirits. He will have no regrets in this life."

Li Min was not sad about the passing of Eunuch Li. Eunuch Li lived for more than ninety years, which was definitely considered a long life in Dajing, and he did not experience much pain before his death.

Jiang Changsheng sighed: "Life has its own destiny, no matter what."

Li Min followed: "A few months ago, we gathered in Song Lake to compete, and a new martial arts supreme was born. This person..."

He hesitated.

Jiang Changsheng asked: "Why are you hesitating?"

"This person is your senior brother, Meng Qiuhe."

Li Min took a deep breath and said, Jiang Changsheng was stunned.

Meng Qiuhe is actually still alive and has managed to reach the top position in the martial arts world?

Forty-one years have passed since Meng Qiuhe failed to challenge the Seventh Prince decades ago. He disappeared from the world and Jiang Changsheng even thought he was dead.

Meng Qiu Shuang's only regret before her death was that she did not meet Meng Qiu He. After all, they were brothers and sisters.

Li Min said: "I don't know where this man learned the unparalleled magical skills. When he gathered in Songhu for a martial arts competition, he defeated all the heroes. People in the Jianghu thought he was qualified to challenge Emperor Yang Zhao."

Jiang Changsheng said: "Pay more attention to his movements in the future."

Li Min nodded, said some more things, and then left.

Jiang Changsheng looked at the sky, silently lost in thought.

The white dragon lay down along the trunk of the tree, and its huge size made the Earth Spirit Tree tremble. Fortunately, the Earth Spirit Tree today is also very huge, like a century-old tree.

It stretched out the snake letter and licked Jiang Changsheng's face.

Jiang Changsheng silently used incense to deduce: "I want to know how strong Meng Qiuhe is now?"

[500 incense points need to be consumed, do you want to continue?]

no.

Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

The value of 500 incense is not low. What kind of adventure did Meng Qiuhe encounter that made him advance by such a rapid pace?

Could it be that the remnants of the Mahayana Dragon Tower helped him?

Jiang Changsheng thought of many possibilities, some good and some bad. Anyway, he was prepared for the worst, that is, Meng Qiuhe might become his enemy.

But he did not panic. If Meng Qiuhe was seeking death, he would be given a survival reward. If he was not seeking death, Meng Qiuhe would not live for many years.

The former brothers may now be enemies.

Thinking back to when he was young, Meng Qiuhe saved him.

Life is really unpredictable.

Jiang Changsheng lamented about life for a while, and then began to continue practicing.

He was getting closer and closer to the seventh level of Taoist Natural Skills. He felt that his strength had surpassed the Qiankun realm. Compared with when he first reached the sixth level, it was a huge difference.

It's a pity that he can't fully show his strength. Firstly, he doesn't have a suitable opponent. Secondly, he uses it for no reason and can easily affect innocent people. He also doesn't want to fully show his strength. You have to keep some cards.

…

Half a month later, nine-year-old Jiang Xiu came to visit Jiang Changsheng, carrying a box of snacks.

It had to be said that Jiang Xiu really looked like Jiang Changsheng when he was a child. When Qing Ku saw it, he couldn't help but feel confused. He had some guesses in his mind, but some of them he couldn't say out loud and could only rot in his stomach.

"Master, I had a dream last night."

Jiang Xiu obediently sat on Jiang Changsheng's lap. The two of them were not like grandfather and grandson, but more like brothers, because Jiang Changsheng looked too young.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and asked, "What dream?"

Jiang Xiu tilted his head and said: "I dreamed that demons and monsters were attacking the capital. They even jumped in front of me and wanted to eat me. Fortunately, the gods came down to earth and rescued me in time. The gods even took me flying..."

He began to describe the dream excitedly, and Jiang Changsheng listened with a smile.

Sudden.

Jiang Xiu pointed at Bai Qi and said: "Master, isn't that demon Bai Qi? It usually doesn't like me, and maybe it wants to eat me!"

Bai Qi, who was lying on the ground, rolled his eyes and was too lazy to pay attention to him.

Jiang Changsheng smiled and said: "If it dares to bully you, Master will boil it into soup. How about it?"

"Okay, okay, I haven't had wolf soup yet."

Jiang Xiu clapped his hands and laughed, making Bai Qi tremble.

After the grandfather and grandson played for a while, Jiang Changsheng let go of Jiang Xiu, and Jiang Xiu went to find the God of Thieves to learn Qinggong.

Last year, Jiang Xiu met the God of Thieves by chance, and the two actually played together. When he learned that Jiang Xiu was the current prince, the God of Thieves was even more attentive, and he suddenly felt that he might become the next Xu Tianji.

With Jiang Changsheng around, the Thief God did not dare to mess with the teachings or bully Jiang Xiu. When the two of them got along, the Thief God took great care of Jiang Xiu and even acted as his pawn to tease him.

Jiang Changsheng looked at Jiang Xiu's figure jumping away, and suddenly felt that such a life was quite good.

Is this family happiness?

…

In the 14th year of Qianwu's reign, Ping An broke through the Northern Zhou front and entered the enemy's camp single-handedly. However, the generals in the camp had already withdrawn, and the army took advantage of the situation to attack the Liangzhou military camp. The situation of the battle changed.

On the other side, most of the Jin Dynasty was annexed by the Jing Dynasty, and it was getting closer and closer to the royal city. The Jin Dynasty seemed to have given up resistance and was defeated, and the mysterious martial arts forces were nowhere to be seen.

The emperor ordered that an army of 200,000 be sent to support Liangzhou. Most of these 200,000 troops were warriors from martial arts circles. Their execution ability may not be as good as that of ordinary soldiers, but their individual strength is very strong.

at night.

In the imperial study room, Jiang Ziyu put down the memorial in his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.

As the country grew bigger, more and more memorials were submitted every day. In addition to war, there were also people's livelihood, law enforcement, Jianghu affairs, etc. Not only the table, but also the ground in front of the table were piled up into small mountains.

Jiang Ziyu stood up, walked to the window sill, and looked at the bright moon outside the window. He was silently lost in thought and freed himself.

This is his habit, but when he is too tired, he is used to looking at the night sky to relax.

A gust of cold wind blew. After all, he was now at the level of Tongtian, so he was naturally not afraid of the cold, but he frowned.

Where does the cold wind come from in the hot summer?

Jiang Ziyu suddenly felt uneasy, always feeling that something was going to happen.

"Could it be that the mysterious master who slaughtered the royal families of various dynasties is about to arrive?"

Jiang Ziyu silently thought that since he issued the order to attack the Jin Dynasty, he had been waiting for the opponent to arrive, but the opponent never came. Even so, he did not relax his vigilance.

at the same time.

At Longqi Temple, Jiang Changsheng, who was meditating and practicing under the tree, stood up with a look of anticipation in his eyes.

Bai Qi felt something, opened his eyes, and kept smelling the smell. He opened his mouth and said: "Taoist Master, there is an evil smell, something dirty is coming into the city."

Jiang Changsheng said: "Just take care of the home and nursery. I'll come as soon as I can."

He jumped up and disappeared into the night.

Bai Qi was secretly shocked, what kind of movement is this?

It stays by Jiang Changsheng's side every day and knows how much Jiang Changsheng loves to practice. This guy's strength is definitely improving all the time.

"When can I learn his martial arts...Should I take the initiative..."

Bai Qi lay on his paws and thought silently.

On the palace wall, a figure quickly entered the palace quickly and silently. Neither the guards nor the white-clothed guards patrolling the eaves noticed it.

This figure walked quickly through the palace. He seemed to know where the emperor was, and he rushed straight to the imperial study.

Soon, he came to the courtyard of the imperial study.

Clang.

Jiang Ziyu suddenly pushed open the door and walked out, holding a sword in his hand. The birthmark between his eyebrows exuded a faint light.

"Who, come out!"

Jiang Ziyu said in a deep voice, when the enemy approached, he felt the sting between his eyebrows, so he immediately took out his sword and left the house.

As soon as he finished speaking, a black shadow suddenly came over at such a fast speed that Jiang Ziyu had no time to react. In his pupils, he only saw a man in black holding a dagger, the tip of which was pointed directly at his throat.

Ding!

The dagger was suddenly deflected, and the man in black changed his movements, but he swung his leg and kicked Jiang Ziyu. A figure appeared in front of Jiang Ziyu out of thin air, raised his foot and kicked the man in black on the chest, sending him flying.

boom!

The man in black smashed through the courtyard walls, raising up hundreds of feet of dust and alarming everyone in the palace.
