Money in the heavens
Chapter 219: Lure the Tiger Away from the Mountain
Xiahou understood that at that time, it would not be a question of whether he wanted to die or not.
It was not just Ning Que who wanted him dead, Xiling and the court all wanted him dead.
Especially Princess Li Yu, who would certainly add fuel to the flames.
Xiahou knew that when everyone wanted him dead, he would have no way to survive, unless he could get the exquisite box in Tang's hand.
When he attacked Ning Que, he had paid attention to the box in Tang's hand. The aura inside made him both afraid and kind. He thought that only things like the Heavenly Book in this world could have such an aura.
It was also Xiahou's only way to survive. Only after obtaining the Heavenly Book Mingzi Scroll, Xiahou would have the possibility to surpass the five realms and reach the Heavenly Demon Realm to transcend the secular world.
At that time, his life and death would be truly in his own hands.
In fact, Xiahou had the opportunity to read the Heavenly Book of Zhishou Temple after becoming a guest official in Xiling. It was indeed mysterious and extraordinary, and its help to the realm was far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Then the Heavenly Book Mingzi Scroll, which had once enabled the first Great Priest of Light to found the Ming Sect and create the Ming Sect's skills, was definitely the most suitable for Xiahou, who was practicing the Ming Sect's skills.
At that time, he also had the idea of robbing the Heavenly Book, but there were many powerful people who knew their fate present, and Xiahou knew that he could not snatch the Heavenly Book from everyone.
Therefore, Xiahou could only choose to get rid of Ning Que, the hidden danger, in advance.
But he did not expect that the master of the academy had already come here.
Then, Xiahou suddenly looked outside the big tent, and he suddenly became curious about who could let the master pull the carriage!
If the master came, the master would definitely not let the master be wronged in the carriage, but would respectfully invite him back to the big tent. In this case, the person in the carriage must not be the master, so who would it be?
Xiahou did not ask, because when he looked outside, he could feel the pressure emanating from the master getting stronger and stronger, obviously warning himself not to explore things he should not know.
He knew that many people in this world died because they knew too much. He himself had ordered the killing of such people, so of course he would not make mistakes in such matters.
Instead, he quickly shifted his attention and said:
"Since the great master has said so, then I will retire! After the autumn harvest this year, I will resign from the court and retire to my old age!"
Li Manman frowned and said:
"Too late!"
Xiahou looked deeply at the direction of the wasteland and said:
"I will stay here to find a good way out for those who follow me, and I also need to keep an eye on this war!"
Li Manman asked again after hearing this:
"Do you have to keep an eye on this war?"
Xiahou said slowly:
"After all, I was a wastelander."
Xiahou did not continue, but Li Manman also understood what Xiahou meant.
Some people are indeed like this. Although they have to struggle in this world and put shackles on themselves, they cannot forget their roots!
So Xiahou, knowing that he was about to die, finally picked up his thoughts for the wastelanders and his hometown, and wanted to do something for the wastelanders.
As long as Xiahou is here, leading the Tang army, even if the Xiling coalition defeated the barbarians, they would not do anything too extreme to the barbarians.
After all, they also need to consider the threat of hundreds of thousands of troops from the Tang Empire.
Li Manman took a deep look at Xiahou, then took Ning Que out of the tent and continued to be his driver.
Zhuoer led the Taoist puppet army to escort everyone all the way to the Tang Dynasty.
······
In the wilderness, two figures, one black and one white, ran and jumped rapidly in the forest. Each time a figure jumped up, it was several feet high, and each time it fell to the ground, it trembled slightly. The other slightly smaller white figure flashed in the forest, and each time it appeared, it was always beside the black figure, and only a trace of residual image could be seen.
However, a young monk suddenly appeared in front, staring at the two running people.
His appearance immediately stopped the two figures and looked at him warily.
The monk was dressed in a simple monk robe. After appearing, he did not speak, just looked at the two people.
The two figures, one black and one white, were Tang and Tang Xiaotang.
Tang said fearfully:
"I didn't expect that Qi Nian, the Buddhist monk, would not chase the team that was about to leave the wilderness, but come here instead!"
It turned out that the monk was Qi Nian who came from the Hanging Temple.
Qi Nian still didn't speak, but stared at Tang, or rather the exquisite box in Tang's arms.
In that box, Qi Nian also felt a breath that made him afraid and kind.
He was afraid of its power, and kind to it as if it was full of the breath of Buddhism.
Qi Nian said in his heart:
"I have heard that the Heavenly Book Ming Zi Volume records all the laws of the Haotian world. It seems that Buddhism is also in it."
Obviously, Qi Nian came all the way from the Hanging Temple in the extreme north of the wilderness for the Heavenly Book that was born in the Demon Sect Mountain Gate.
In his mind, the great master of the academy appeared at the Demon Sect Mountain Gate for the Heavenly Book Ming Zi Volume, but because Ke Haoran and Jian Xiaoxiao also came out of it at that time, the great master had to give up the Heavenly Book and protect Ke Haoran and the others to return to the academy.
"Hahaha, Qi Nian practiced the silent meditation thirteen years ago, so he won't answer you! You were there at the time, weren't you, Tang?"
A clear voice appeared behind Tang. From his voice and words, he immediately guessed the identity of this person:
"Ye Su, the Taoist Zhishouguan, who walks around the world!"
He was on guard against Qi Nian in front of him, and then turned his body to look at Ye Su behind him and said.
Ye Su was wearing a simple green Taoist robe, with a wooden sword on his back, and was looking at his brother and sister and Qi Nian calmly.
And at the moment when Ye Su looked over, Tang Xiaotang's divinity suddenly merged with the surrounding world and disappeared in the eyes of everyone.
It was the "dark diffusion" in "The Burning Shadow Sacred Art".
Tang Xiaotang knew that he was not the opponent of the two, and he might become his brother's weakness here, so he disappeared directly. Although this could not completely escape from the two's divine thoughts, he would not be locked and defeated in an instant.
Seeing this, Tang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and his body suddenly rose up, pressing towards Qi Nian and Ye Su.
Ye Su looked at the brother and sister working together, and was stunned, thinking of his sister in Zhishou Temple.
"It would be great if the two of us could work together like them."
A thought came to Ye Su's mind.
Tang suddenly smiled and said:
"Why did you two come here?"
As he said that, a smile of success appeared on Tang's lips.
Ye Su also looked at the box in Tang's arms and said:
"The Great Priest Tianyu once predicted that the Heavenly Book would appear in the wasteland. I don't need to tell you what is in this box that is so precious to you, the Demon Sect's wanderer!
It's a pity that my sister didn't take it from you at that time, but with the great master of the academy, it is understandable!"
Tang asked with a strange look on his face:
"Have you seen your sister?"
Ye Su shook his head in surprise, and then said:
"The wasteland is vast, Ye Hongyu is devoted to cultivation and doesn't want to get involved in these things, so I naturally don't want to disturb her..."
Post one first, let the next chapter fly for a while!!!
