A small hut appeared overnight half a mile outside the imperial city, with a few strands of colorful tassels ostentatiously hanging from the eaves of the simple eaves.

"Ah!" Chu Jingye rubbed his nose, scanned the dust flying in the room angrily, and kept fanning with his hands:

"I said, can't you choose a better place to station?"

"No!" Someone across the table put his legs across the table and groaned with his head raised.The good place this kid talked about must be in the city. Someone surnamed Gu saved his life, but they didn’t. It’s quite good to be able to create such a shelter from the wind and rain overnight, and they are content.

Chu Jingye resentfully stopped talking, Qi Yantang tapped the table with his fingers, and said loudly:

"Okay, let's get down to business first." He pursed his lips and looked at the crowd, then retracted his gaze and lowered his head slightly:

"I think the Chu family's subsequent courtship is a bit strange."

"What's wrong?" Gu Lique leaned over and asked him with his head tilted.

"If you really want to show your kindness, why did you let the old man out and talk for so long in the first place, and wait until you see that the general situation is over before coming out..."

"Pretentious." Gu Lique squinted his eyes and answered the question.

Qi Yantang glanced at him, raised the corner of his mouth:

"That's right, pretending."

"What is this? The five great masters have been pretending for almost 1000 years. There is nothing rare. The truly rare ones are here!" A man with a mustache lifted his chin and spoke disdainfully. Seeing everyone looking at him, he said complacently:

"These five families have been in balance for a long time. Even though there are actually some gaps, they still do a good job on the surface. Maybe it's the morals of the world that make people extra real, and they can't keep their face. They pinch each other in the imperial capital. It’s been several times, and it’s even worse now, finally a family has been driven to the outskirts, which one do you think it is?”

"The Gu family." This is not news, Qi Jianyi has just briefly talked about the situation in the imperial capital.

In fact, Gu Lique's heart is still subtle and complicated. He thinks of his mighty father and younger brother. Hearing that he is still alive, he doesn't know whether he should be relieved or sad.

The bearded man pouted:

"Yes, the Gu family. Although the Gu family is weak, the 1000-year-old foundation is not built. Some emerging forces can survive in the imperial capital. They are so willing to hide in the periphery. The strange thing is not that they were driven out. The weird thing is that they didn't move at all, the heart of Gu is wild, isn't this normal?" After he said this, Gu Lique gave him a speechless look, the man paused, turned his head away care about him.

"So, you want us to investigate?" He patted the back of Gu Lique's hand reassuringly. Just now, the bearded "surname Gu" included Gu Lique. Gu Lique is wild, but Wild he is happy.

"Of course, we must go!" The bearded man had obviously discussed with the zombies, and what he said was firm.

Qi Yantang nodded slightly:

"So, who is going?"

Wherever he looked, those old ghosts who had raised their chins just now shrank their necks in unison. In the end, someone couldn't stand Qi Yantang's gaze, and said flatteringly:

"In case an old guy surnamed Gu crawls out, we will only be at his command, not to mention that this will expose our identity as a rebel, and it will not be good for you!"

Gu Lique and Chu Jingye immediately snorted, would it be beneficial to let them take risks?

But the old ghosts' faces were not covered, they didn't feel any pain to the cold snort, and said confidently:

"Here we can draw a map of our previous military situation for you, and we can also write down the specific situation we know below, who are like... the ghosts are powerful, and where are they, so that we can prepare for our future journey. some preparations."

These guys have a strategic plan?Qi Yantang raised his eyebrows, looked at them in surprise, and said with a broken smile:

"I thought your plan was to greet your bosses one by one, and then order the corpses to break through the gate of the safe zone in one fell swoop."

The old ghosts kept their expressions on their faces, and their hearts couldn't help feeling guilty. The more weary their necks became, the straighter their necks became. They stared at Qi Yantang until he compromised and said:

"It's enough for Li Que and I to go together, God Stick, you study together with them, just to see what advanced tactics the antiques below have."

They really should go back to the Gu family to have a look, isn't the child surnamed Gu's natal family the Gu family? Those thick-skinned zombies think it's a matter of course.

--------

"You're so easy to talk, you know those old guys are framing you." Gu Lique and Qi Yantang groaned in the night and complained in a low voice when they walked around the iron fence.

Qi Yantang chuckled lightly and replied in a low voice:

"Do you dare to say that you don't want to come back and take a look?" The Gu family was not honest to him, but after all, he was always concerned about it, but this guy's mouth was so stubborn that he would not admit it even if he punctured it face to face.Sure enough, through the night, Gu Lique's muffled voice came:

"Nonsense!" But he couldn't help but hurry up.

Sure enough, they were driven to the outskirts, and the security was not very strict. They easily bypassed a few guards, and they went straight to the main house.It is said to be the main house, but it is just a temporary warehouse.

A few rays of light leaked through the gap of the rolling door, Gu Lique stopped Qi Yantang, narrowed his eyes, opened his mouth and said silently:

There are people with strong mental strength.

Qi Yantang raised his eyebrows and replied silently:

Can you escape?

Gu Lique grinned, revealing his bright white teeth triumphantly:

of course!

They approached the rolling door without a sound and leaned against the edge of the door. The voice inside came through the iron sheet clearly, it seemed to be Gu Chuo's voice:

"Old Ancestor, shouldn't we just do nothing?" His younger brother seemed to be gnashing his teeth when he said this.

"Are you questioning my decision?" A deep and arrogant voice came to mind, called "Old Ancestor", but the voice was still very young.

"No, it's not..." Gu Chuo was a little terrified, struggling for a moment and said carefully:

"It's just Qi Yantang, the Qi family...yesterday..." He faltered, not thinking about what words to use.

"Are you jealous of him?" Patriarch laughed, and the ending sound slightly raised.

"No..." Gu Chuo hesitated, and then spit out another "no".

"Then you adore him?" the ancestor suddenly realized.

Gu Chuo was silent. With his silence, Qi Yantang and Gu Lique, who were holding their breath outside the door, raised their eyebrows in surprise. Gu Lique pouted and glared at him, then turned his head back and continued to listen... Gu Chuo has never worshiped him.

Qi Yantang secretly sighed that this guy is narrow-minded, then raised his hand, and gently stroked his palm: I adore you, you are my brother, I adore you more than my own brother.

Gu Lique felt itchy palms, grinned involuntarily, and then shrugged: When did Qi Yantang worship Qi Jianyi?He clenched his mischievous hand and stared into his emerald eyes:

Concentrate on work!The shape of his mouth said so.

"It's no wonder. For people of your generation, it is indeed a feat to be able to reach his level. It is understandable for a kid of your age to worship someone who is powerful."

"I just think that if we go out and tell him that you are not hostile, it will help a lot, and the Gu family may not be driven to this place." Gu Chuo's voice is a bit dull, and he is probably in a depressed mood.

The old ancestor looked at him with a half-smile:

"Who said I helped you?" Gu Chuo's face turned pale, and he looked at his father helplessly, and his father immediately shouted:

"Xiao Chuo!" Then he turned around and apologized to the ancestor:

"This kid is too young and short-tempered, so don't take it seriously if you say the wrong thing!" His face was also pale, but his expression was a little calmer than Gu Chuo's.

The ancestor waved his hand indifferently, looked at Gu Chuo and asked with great interest:

"Are you so convinced that Qi Yantang will win and lead you to win?"

Gu Chuo didn't dare to catch his breath until his chest hurt and the ancestor's eyes gradually became sharper, then he replied in a trembling voice:

"You can only trust him."

The ancestor leaned closer to his face, stared at him and said with a smile:

"But his name is Qi Yantang. Would you like to make a bet with me that this Qi Yantang will be the one who will end up the worst among all of you living people in a while."

Gu Chuo looked suspiciously, and said with difficulty:

"I don't understand...."

"I don't know what his parents think about giving him such a taboo name. If there is still time to change his name and tell everyone that his name is not 'Qi Yantang', he may still have half a chance to survive."

"Why is this name so taboo?"

The ancestor's expression suddenly became deep and cold, the corners of his mouth twitched stiffly, and he laughed and said:

"I said I won't help you because I still don't know what the woman above is planning. If she plans to wipe you all out, you'd better wash your necks and wait. If she miraculously grows hair Good heart...." He laughed at himself, then stared at his descendants after several generations:

"But you shouldn't worry. She seems to treat people surnamed Gu favorably. Maybe she won't kill all of you. You're so smart, maybe she'll support you when she's in a good mood."

"Who is she?" Gu Chuo asked in a daze.

The old ancestor suddenly turned cold, his eyes turned black, and he bared his white teeth after a while:

"A lunatic." Even though he is also an ancient family member whom she treats favorably, there is still no way to change this deep-rooted impression.

Seeing the surprise and fear on Gu Chuo's father and son's faces full of malice, he breathed out slowly, and said in a hoarse voice:

Although the Gu family is getting weaker and weaker, the lessons that the top family should learn will never be short of weight, so they must have heard of Princess Zhaoyang.

Gu Chuo was fascinated for a while, and couldn't help but think of who Princess Zhaoyang was. In fact, that was the beginning of Nanhua. The historians unanimously defined the son of Princess Zhaoyang as the founding emperor of Nanhua, and in fact it was true.

But the princess died young, and the life history recorded in the history books is mediocre, so why did this princess who was only a flash in the pan make the ancestors so afraid.When Gu Chuo asked, the ancestor laughed dumbly and said:

"Dear, you actually think I'm just jealous?" He stared at this ignorant kid:

"After you've met her, you'll know that the word fear should be redefined."

"Princess Zhaoyang's surname is Qi, and her son's mother's surname is a very unusual thing thousands of years ago. Do you know who the father of Emperor Huanheng is? Which is Princess Zhaoyang's husband's family?" Gu Chuo was at a loss. shaking his head.

The Bai family, this family that has been uprooted from history, is the true father's family of Huanheng Emperor Qi Lianyang.

"It only took half a night for the Bai family to fall up and down, and it was Princess Zhaoyang herself who did it."

The air in the room was suffocating, the ancestor licked his dry lips, squinting his eyes to remember.

When the news of Qi Yantang's death came, Qi Yanwei was hugging Qi Lianyang, who was just full-term, and was basking in the sun in the garden. She had been living peacefully for too long, and she almost thought that she had been paralyzed, her son's body was limp and fat, The husband is considerate, except for the letters urging Qi Yantang to come back to see his nephew, there is still no response, everything is so beautiful that it is unreasonable.

Until the news flew all over the imperial capital, until someone put the silk on her body, she was stunned, as if she had been hit with a few sticks severely, and she couldn't hear anything except the roaring and breaking sound in her ears.

She seemed to have finished Qi Yantang's funeral in a half-dream, but there was no body, only an empty coffin, because Qi Yantang died on the battlefield, and there was no body left.That's why she always had vague hopes, looking at the direction of the city, as if her brother would gallop into the city on a horse in the next second, telling the whole world that the previous military situation was all rumors.

But he didn't, she waited from Chunxie to Feixue, Qi Lianyang could already walk on the ground, and the person who agreed to come to see his nephew still didn't come back.Then on a certain day, she seemed to be woken up, and her stagnant life was suddenly broken, and a huge stone was smashed into it.

Qi Yanwei didn't believe that her brother would die so easily. The barbarians of the Eastern Tartars feared him like a ghost, and no one was capable of hurting a single hair of Qi Yantang, let alone his martial arts.

She was full of resentment and doubts, but it took her two days to find the most powerful gang in the rivers and lakes, and she gave everything she had as long as they found out the truth.

That year, she became more and more taciturn, worshiping the Buddha all day long, facing the solemn and solemn expression of the Buddha statue, she hated and doubted everyone in her heart, and Emperor Qing Jing was the first to bear the brunt.

"The Eagle Gang has always been mysterious. They claim to only have news they don't want, and there is no news they can't find. They took over Princess Zhaoyang's job, and after a lot of effort, they still found out the cause of her brother's death." The ancestor sighed. wrote:

"But whoever wants to check and check, finally finds the princess herself..."

"Wait, isn't Princess Zhaoyang on good terms with her brother?" Gu Chuo didn't know why.

The old ancestor's smile became cruel:

"Yes, good can't be better. It is estimated that the people in the whole world can't add up to one finger of her brother in her heart. But the absurd thing is that the person who killed her brother was herself. I don't know."

"She's not stupid, so she almost went crazy the moment she knew the truth. She knew something was wrong with her. Although a small poisonous poison had been eliminated, she could still find some clues. She took every precaution against it." , but in the end it failed to prevent her husband..."

The man had a lot of gold under his knees, but Bai Changjing knelt down and begged her, and Emperor Qingjing threatened and lured them, so they had no choice but to...

They——Qi Yanwei listened to these two words with a blank expression. Bai Changjing's eyes were red, and his handsome and elegant face was unparalleled even though it was stained with tears. He cried out:

"Think about our son. This is the end of the matter. Qi Shuai has been gone for almost two years. What can you do? I know I'm sorry for you, and I know I'm sorry for Qi Shuai, but I swear, I swear that in the future, I will Treat you well, a couple for life! Lian Yang is the only legitimate son of the Bai family, and your child will also be the only child of the Bai family from now on!"

Qi Yanwei still looked at him coldly, he wanted to rush over to hug her, but Qi Yanwei didn't hide, Bai Changjing was overjoyed, and kept whispering in her ear:

"Think about the wonderful days we spent, think about our son, I won't expect you to do anything stupid!"

Qi Yanwei's eyes were blank, she was thinking, but all she could think of was that her brother took her all the way in those years, they fled all the way from the village of their hometown, they were chased by dogs and scolded by people, drenched in the rain in the dilapidated shanty, she found out Suffering from a high fever, her brother carried her for ten miles and knelt in front of the doctor’s door begging for help. She only wanted to see them encounter famine, and every night she felt that she couldn’t survive, so her brother hugged her. She broke the film cake that was as hard as a rock and softened it, and fed her mouthful. Her thin and piercing chest intended to shelter her from the wind and rain, and waited for the dawn.

She remembered the day when he and Gu Anluo joined the army, she cried hoarsely, and Qi Yantang ran back when he had already reached the foot of the mountain, making her laugh before leaving...

She can't think of the beauty, the beauty has been wiped out, and she can't think of the future, and the future has disappeared with the beauty.

So when Yebai Mansion was on fire, all [-] people survived, except for Qi Yanwei and Qi Lianyang, who walked out of the fire with her arms.

She was going to kill him too, that was Bai Changjing's son, but she changed her mind when she saw the jade pendant around his waist. The young son, thinking of Qi Yantang's happy and anticipating appearance when he found out that she was pregnant, she staggered out with Qi Lianyang in his arms, knelt down against the gate, wept hard, like a tearful man.

The tears that came a year late opened at this moment, and her cries were so shrill that no one dared to doubt that she had anything to do with the fire.People kept secret about the tragedy in Baifu, and felt deep sympathy for the orphan and widow, not to mention that they were relatives of Marshal Qi Yantang.People are always like this. After death, they can only think of the good things in that life. As for those murderous rumors, they disappeared with time. Qi Yanwei didn't say anything when she moved into the Marshal's Mansion.

"People say that Princess Zhaoyang went with her after a short time because she was too sad to lose her husband." The old ancestor twitched the corner of his mouth and snorted:

"Even the old emperor thought so. After all, the princess and the son-in-law sang in harmony at that time, and they were neither envious of mandarin ducks nor immortals."

"Emperor Huanheng's surname is Qi." Gu Chuo mumbled.If the relationship is really good, how could his own son not bear his own surname.The people were blindfolded strangely at that time, or they sensed some danger and kept silent. In short, the Bai family was wiped out like this, and even the history books were stingy to leave him a fortune.

"Actually, Princess Zhaoyang is not dead. It is rumored that Emperor Huanheng was raised by her alone. She even ordered her son not to call her mother, because she adopted him to her dead elder brother, and only allowed him to call her aunt. I always Curious how she survived those years, always hiding behind the scenes, listening to politics behind the curtain for so many years... Woman, woman... I heard that Emperor Qing Jing was killed by her, a court lady Said that she saw Princess Zhaoyang cut off Emperor Qingjing's flesh piece by piece, and the old emperor's screams lingered in the palace for three days, so that the original Shuangfei Palace became a cold palace."

He clicked his tongue and glanced at them:

"Of course, this is just a rumor."

"This is not the scariest thing. The woman is only scary after she dies. She ran all over the underworld but couldn't find her brother. The ghost guard who guards the reincarnation said that he had never seen Qi Yantang. We wake up every 100 years down here. Once, that woman was more powerful than anyone else, and she would get up and make trouble every 50 years, and when she searched every corner of the underworld and didn't find her brother's soul, then she went completely crazy."

Not in reincarnation, not in the underworld, maybe Qi Yantang has completely disappeared, which is the kind of complete death in the legend.But no one dared to say that to Qi Yanwei, she became bloody and violent, but her wrists were extremely high, and Qi Yantang's old department obeyed her orders, and even listened to her order not to enter reincarnation, and chose to continue the endless life Look for.

"She is a very beautiful woman, but the more beautiful the flower, the more poisonous it is." The ancestor murmured with lingering fear.

Qi Yanwei will always be accompanied by a few people, the great national teacher back then, Qi Yantang's little apprentice, Wang Meng, in the early years, and later their descendants, from these families, from the Gu family.The power entrenched is getting bigger and bigger, faintly fighting against the older undead in the east.

The ghost guard who guards the gate has only seen Gu Anluo but not Qi Yantang, which is why Qi Yanwei refuses to give up no matter what.Reincarnation is a river that never returns, it can only surge forward, and no one knows where it will return to after reincarnation. Maybe it has been missed for generations, so there are always some ghosts who don't want to reincarnate, but Qi Yanwei is the most stubborn and powerful among them .

Her soul is so powerful that it can make the only flower in the underworld bloom, and her palace is located behind the enchanting Red Sea.

"You said that the vine is very poisonous, every time it blooms, you must poison the vines that feed it..." Qi Yanwei was dressed in red like blood, which was the color of the vine. She didn't look back and said softly Ask Chu Shinian behind him.

Slender and pale fingers pinched a red flower from a black branch, she crushed it hard, the bright red flower juice slid down her wrist, as soon as she let go, the remaining flower fell, and then she laughed hysterically:

"You said that its poisonousness is so strong, such a scourge, why is it still inexhaustible?"

Chu Shinian just looked at her silently, watching her a little bit of madness on the verge of collapse, watching her straighten up again as if nothing had happened, her smile became elegant and charming again, overlapping with the poisonous red flower behind her:

"You don't know, I am this poisonous vine..." Chu Shinian didn't know if she was crying, but every syllable in that voice seemed to be full of ashes.

"Someone killed the gatekeeper in the east?" She calmed down and asked with a slight tilt of her head.

"They want to go out. They have been planning for almost 1000 years. You can't stop them. Don't fight them."

"Who said I'm going to stop it?" Qi Yanwei said casually, then looked at Chu Shinian, raised her finger stained with flower juice, and stroked his face:

"Do you think my brother will be in Yangshi?"

"I don't know." Chu Shinian replied like this, the side of his cheek was burning hot, and the vine was very poisonous, his words were true.

"I don't know anything about the great master of the country..." Qi Yanwei chuckled, shook her hands, and walked deep into the flowers, until her red dress was submerged in the sea of ​​flowers.

She has been looking for it all her life, and maybe she can look for it for another lifetime, but she doesn't know when it will end, maybe just like this sea of ​​flowers, there is no end to it.

Of course she also wants to go out, the whole world wonders if there is anyone who hates more than her, hates this world that has taken everything from her, hates this fate that repeatedly plays tricks on them.

--------

"You said, after that lunatic wakes up, will she become an enemy of the whole world? Or will she show mercy somehow and plan to become a Bodhisattva?" The ancestor looked at them sarcastically.

"So those saltpeter and red sand are all for..." Gu Chuo remembered in horror, and almost instinctively wanted to stop the construction of the altar, but he was actually an accomplice in it.

"Without those, she will wake up eventually. If she wakes up and finds that she doesn't have these, the death of us slaves will be even worse."

The ancestor stared at him, with a clear smile on his lips, and said slowly:

"That's why I said that Qi Yantang will definitely lose, because you have blind eyes and chose the most taboo person to be the leader. In front of her, everything about her brother must be taboo. Nourishment."

--------

Qi Yantang couldn't hear what was said inside, his expression was blank, and his mind was blank, until Gu Lique pulled him and ran wildly, the last trace of oxygen was drawn out of his lungs, and they were already ten miles away from the imperial capital.

Gu Lique hugged him tightly, pressed his head to her, panted loudly and did not speak.Qi Yantang patted him on the back, opened his mouth in vain, tasted the saltiness that slipped into his lips, and only then did he feel a tearing pain in his chest.

That never-ending long distance, his sister walked for 1000 years.
