After the master's ascension

The hungry wolves in Yucheng couldn't wait for their belated prey.But they waited for a heavy rain that was rare in Yucheng in a hundred years.

It was as if a hole had been broken in the sky, and the flood-like waterfall poured down unobstructed.

The long-lost heavy rain in the southern border has brought the dry river back to life.The embankments swelled, and all the dry banks were swallowed up.

However, the residents of Yucheng and the monks from outside did not express any joy for the rain in this long drought.

All the rivers turned bloody overnight.

In the Desheng building in Xuanzhou, Lu Wangyu was having breakfast.The dishes are very delicate, with a touch of green randomly dotted on the porridge, and the stage name "Bai Lu Dian Cui" was given, and the value of the porridge doubled immediately.

While drinking the porridge that faded out of the bird, he secretly chanted "Diancui" dozens of times in his heart.

Wei Zhi asked to bring over a plate of flower cakes, which is a famous dish of Desheng Building.

The paper prepared by Rong Sheng's mansion was about to run out, so they had to stay in Xuanzhou for two days to prepare the pens, inks, papers and inkstones they needed later.

As soon as he was seated, he heard a group of people bustling on the empty table behind him.They randomly ordered a few dishes, and then began to chatter.

The previous ones are all about the romance of the chivalrous man and the beautiful woman.Suddenly, the tall and thin man took the conversation, squinted his eyes, approached the table, and said mysteriously: "Do you know what is the most wicked thing recently?"

"Who doesn't know that there was a heavy rain on the southern border, and the river was probably bloody due to the anger of the gods," said the diner who was traveling with him.

"What is the wrath of the gods, don't listen to such unreliable rumors. This is called doing justice for the sky!"

The tall and thin man refuted this unreliable answer.

He paused for a while, then took another sip, slowly sipped his tea, and continued: "Everyone should know that Nanling Rongsheng Mansion has always been mysterious, and no one can guess what they want to do. Now it's all revealed !"

"They colluded with the demon clan and attempted to subvert the entire human world! As we all know, the demon clan is bloodthirsty and cannibalistic, so they use the flesh and blood of the common people as offerings in order to harm the world!"

There was an uproar all around, and a diner yelled out in shock, "What? Eat things that are inside and out! The two races of monsters are like fire and water, and they actually disregard the world for their own self-interest! So what's going on now?"

The thin and tall man put on an inscrutable smile. He half closed his eyes, shook his head and replied: "Hey, don't panic! Yao Pavilion will not just sit idly by. They will go out to kill evil and eliminate evil spirits."

The tall and thin man raised his wide sleeves, and pointed to Jiang Shan with great ambition: "And kill all the three thousand thieves in the Rongsheng Mansion in Nanling. So far, the world is peaceful!"

"It is said that the two sides fought fiercely for three days, and it coincided with the once-in-a-hundred-year heavy rain. The blood poured into the river and sea, and turned into a river of blood."

Suddenly, Wei Zhiyue's mind was buzzing.He was stunned, the flower cake in his hand weighed a thousand catties, he couldn't hold it anymore, so he slammed it on the table.

His pale lips parted slightly, and his clear eyes were full of shock and bewilderment.He cast disbelieving eyes on Lu Wangyu.

The spoon in Lu Wangyu's hand paused insignificantly, he stirred the porridge with a normal expression, then turned his head to meet Wei Zhiyue's gaze.

His expression did not change, and he said softly: "Executing the contract, have you finished eating? Let's go back first after we finish eating."

There were indistinct sounds of applause, rejoicing, and noise from all around, but they overlapped with the sharp beeping in the ear, which made it hard to hear clearly.

"Wolf ambition, it is not a pity to die!"

"Heh, even if you die, you will commit crimes, using their dirty blood to pollute the people's water source..."

Wei Zhiyue went downstairs with Lu Wangyu, he looked the same as usual, but his eyes were completely blank and blank.

The coolness of the early morning didn't seem to dissipate with the rising sun. Every step he took, he could feel the chill seeping from the ground, slowly enveloping his ankles and spreading all the way to his spine.

The whole body is cold, and the coolness pierces the heart.

Returning to the room in silence, Lu Wangyu had just closed the door when he heard a hesitant trill behind him.

"Brother..."

Lu Wangyu turned his head and looked into those watery eyes.He saw Wei Zhiyue slightly opened his lips, but he couldn't say any words.

Did you, already knew that this would happen...

Lu Wangyu sighed softly, he knew what the executive wanted to ask, he could only give that answer, even if it was something he didn't want to hear.

"I know, the prince knows, Rong Ji also knows, and the three thousand soldiers of Rong Sheng's mansion all know..."

When he said this, Rong Sheng Changge's words seemed to ring in his ears again.

"Cangshan has never retreated, and our Nanling will naturally not retreat."

At that time, the young man in charge of Rong Sheng's mansion stood in front of the endless ancient formation, and made his oath with every word.

Lu Wangyu lowered his eyes, and he slowly explained: "Yao Pavilion came straight to the library, and Rong Sheng's mansion will never let them take any volume of scriptures. So, after we took the blueprint of the formation, they will ask Completely burn all the books."

"There are tens of thousands of books, and the project is huge. Moreover, the drawings and materials have been specially treated to prevent fire and moisture, and are not easy to be damaged. They can only stop Yao Pavilion and complete the task... there is no way back."

Wei Zhiyue seemed to be unable to hold on anymore.His always straight spine was slightly hunched, he bowed, his hands resting on the edge of the table, his whole body trembling slightly.

A drop of water hit the ground.

"How could they..."

His tone trembled, almost words squeezed out of the roots of his teeth.

But after all, there is nothing to say.

Is it because Yao Pavilion doesn't distinguish between right and wrong, black and white are reversed?Or blame Rong Sheng's mansion for refusing to look back and insist on stubbornly fighting Nanling for those classics?

The drums of the Quartet have stopped, where will the heroic souls of the soldiers return?

Lu Wangyu gently raised his hand, and at the moment when he was about to caress Wei Zhiyue's trembling shoulder, he withdrew his hand silently.

In fact, he has been soberly watching the future move in the established direction.

The ending has long been doomed, and all they can do is to save the last chance of life before the Yaoge butcher's knife falls.

It's just that I didn't expect that this day would come so early, so caught off guard, and so tragic.

Rong Sheng Changge once said frankly that if they hadn't met Lu Wangyu, their original plan was to live and die with the library.

They will destroy hope and crisis together.

However, maybe it is the heavens who are merciful, or maybe it is God's will in the dark.The spark of hope was brought out from Nanling.

Nanling Rongsheng's mansion does not protect the imperial power, but the true fairness of this world.

Behind them is not a virtual prison, but thousands of monster races, the last life.

Rong Sheng's mansion finally fulfilled the agreement of the year with the persistence of several generations and the blood of three thousand soldiers.

They gave a perfect but cruel answer.

Now, Cangshan Mountain must have been under martial law at the same time as Nanling Mountain, and going directly to it would be a self-inflicted trap.

Before copying all the drawings, they can only go around in the human world, hide and hide, and play cat and mouse tricks.

Lu Wangyu didn't speak anymore, he walked towards the desk in silence, and continued to copy those obscure and complicated formation drawings.

One stroke at a time, attentive and pious.

Wei Zhiyue slowly adjusted his out-of-control emotions.He knew in his heart that it was useless to be angry afterward, and what was more important was the present and the future.

The Rong Sheng Mansion bought them time with their lives, and the only thing they could do was to live up to this trust and send the blueprints safely to Cangshan in the extreme north.

Moreover, senior brother is not as calm as he appears on the surface.

He raised his head and glanced at Lu Wangyu, who was still concentrating on studying the copying. He felt a heavy weight on his heart, and even his breathing became sluggish.

He knew that his brother didn't say anything on his lips, and didn't show it on his face, but he thought more than anyone else in his heart...

Since leaving Nanling, except for the time of rushing, the senior brother has been studying those heavenly blueprints all the time.Even in the middle of the night, the lights in his room were still on.

These days, he has never had a good sleep, a moment of rest.

Wei Zhiyue recalled the conversation outside the city, when the prince bid farewell to them.

"Then let's wait until the river and mountain are settled, and we will fight again!"

"must."

At that time, in fact, both of them knew in their hearts that this parting might mean goodbye indefinitely.

With what mood did Rong Sheng Changge make an invitation to fight again?And what was Lu Wangyu thinking behind the seemingly free and easy acceptance of the appointment?

It's just a promise of something to no avail, an appointment with no one.

Lu Wangyu put down the pen suddenly, expressionlessly crumpled up the waste rice paper and threw it on the ground, and then began to draw new pictures non-stop.

Wei Zhiyue slowly leaned over to pick up the ball of paper, his heart ached, but he still adjusted his tone and said as if nothing had happened: "Brother, the things ordered at Zhifang yesterday should have arrived, I'm going to pick them up now." return."

After finishing speaking, his throat moved slightly, he hesitated for a while, but he still didn't say anything, turned and left.

After Wei Zhiyue left, Lu Wangyu finally paused the pen in his hand.

He was silent for a long time, but finally he couldn't hold it anymore, he could only support his forehead with his hands tiredly, and drooped his head weakly.

The man in front of the table closed his eyes and slowly let out a long and extremely exhausted sigh.

Wei Zhiyue was walking on the street, bustling with people and people.

He was walking alone in the street.Even the red strings hanging from the children passing by would remind him of the blood in the Yucheng River in his mind.

And the crumpled waste paper was still clenched in his hands.

Master said, brother has deep thoughts.

He is like a lone wolf walking in the plain, he can be calm about any situation, but because of his great blood, he is lonely.

He knew that his senior brother would never want to expose his vulnerable side to others, whether it was enemies or relatives.

Senior brother didn't want him to know, so he didn't know.

But wearing too many masks would be tiring, so he could only let his senior brother be alone for a while, so that he could vent his depression, and let him stop wearing the mask of pretending nothing happened.

In this way, he can take off his disguise and get a breather.

Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead.

It seems that something happened in a grain store.Wei Zhiyue happened to be passing by the shop, he wanted to go around and leave, but when he raised his head, his gaze was frozen and he couldn't move away.

Above the grain store, in addition to the white curtains, there is also a wooden signboard engraved with an eagle emblem.

The eagle emblem is the unique symbol of Rongsheng Mansion in Nanling.

Wei Zhiyue was stunned.His heart skipped a beat, and then the corners of his eyes turned slightly red.

But the farce continued, and the white curtain was immediately pulled down with bamboo poles by a group of people in disciple uniforms.

The eagle emblem wooden sign also fell heavily to the ground, cracking a corner.

I saw another group of people pushing a middle-aged man out of the shop.

The man has a strong physique, but he never resisted. He passively accepted the rough actions of those people, and then he tripped and fell in front of Ying Hui.

Those people pointed at the man, and seemed to want to come up and make up for it.Wei Zhiyue frowned, he stepped forward quickly, and put his hand on the scabbard silently.

The leading disciples didn't want to make a big fuss when they saw someone coming out.He spat to the side, and then told his subordinates to leave the middle-aged man alone and continue working.

Wei Zhiyue also has no intention of provoking trouble, they can't make a high profile now.He could only suppress his anger towards those people, and stretched out his hand to the man next to him.

The man's right trouser leg was slightly rolled up, revealing a bit of wood texture.

His right leg was actually a wooden prosthesis!

Although Wei Zhiyue didn't show any surprise on his face, there was a storm in his heart.

He had a vague guess: the person in front of him was most likely a retired soldier of Rong Sheng's mansion stationed here.

The middle-aged man raised his head, the hideous scar on Guo Zi's face confirmed Wei Zhiyue's guess.His temples are frosty white, but the brows are awe-inspiring and upright.

The man glanced at Wei Zhiyue, but he didn't accept his kindness, but silently picked up the broken eagle emblem on the ground.

There was a cut on the broken corner of his hand, and blood flowed immediately.

However, as if he didn't feel any pain at all, he directly held the eagle emblem to his chest, and then stood up with difficulty.

Wei Zhiyue helped him silently, but the man didn't appreciate it at all, and after standing up with his strength, he didn't even say thank you.

The white curtain hanging above the grain store was torn off and fell to the ground.Then it trampled on it mercilessly, leaving countless gray and black shoe prints on it.

The place where the eagle emblem was hung just now was quickly replaced with a nine-petal lotus pattern - that is the symbol of Yao Pavilion.

The man looked up at the sign blankly for a while, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.But he still straightened his spine.

Even if you are depressed, you don't see the slightest embarrassment.

He turned around in silence, holding the incomplete eagle emblem, and limped forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow, his spine straight, like a sword that never bends.

Wei Zhi made an appointment to see him go away, for some reason, his eyes felt a little hot.He knew that the soul of Nanling Rongsheng Mansion would exist forever.

The crowd that gathered around to watch the excitement gradually dispersed.Seeing that the young man was good-looking, the good-natured woman also came over to comfort him.

"Hey, young man, you don't know yet. That man's previous employer was that...Rong Sheng Mansion! They are broken, they use ordinary people to feed monsters!"

"Fortunately, he was discovered. You said that he even organized funerals for such a bad person. I don't think it's a good thing...Young man, don't bother with him, or what can you do if you misunderstand... "

Wei Zhiyue finally understood the deep meaning behind that man's rudeness.He can't let innocent people be implicated and excluded because of him.

He gritted his teeth and looked at the direction the man was leaving, suddenly a pang of resentment arose in his heart.

He wanted to expose Yaoge's crimes to everyone, to wash away the grievances of Rong Sheng's mansion, to rush into the grain shop, and kill all those arrogant and twisted people.

But I can't... It's like the forbearance of the Rongsheng Mansion in Nanling for thousands of years, and the slander for no reason at the end...

They all know that the most important thing is not to wash away these sufferings and promote their own greatness.

It was the last one, the result of fighting with one's life.

Wei Zhiyue stood in the middle of the road, staring straight at the signboard engraved with the nine-petal lotus pattern, but he didn't notice the most familiar figure standing not far behind him.

Lu Wangyu lived in the middle of the crowd, as if watching indifferently, and was out of tune with the real spectators.

He seemed to stay out of it, but he was already deeply involved.

"The soul of Rong Sheng's mansion will always be there."

For a moment, the same idea appeared in his mind.

The author has something to say:

Possessed by new adventures, and lonely by his great blood. ——From "The Ashanti"

This is the image of Xiao Lu in my heart, like a lone wolf in the plain, who will secretly mention his past stories later.He is too lonely, so the ending will definitely be HE!
