As a eunuch, I don't want to live forever

Chapter 156
The current situation between Da Zhou and Da Qin is no longer a simple struggle between countries.

So are the people.

The imperial court is also good.

The world of cultivating immortals is also good.

already involved in this war.

Everyone wants to achieve unification, but who will unify the unification is very important.

It is not surprising that Daqin developed spies in Dazhou like this.

Just like Da Zhou...

How many people in Xianyang are the intelligence personnel of Dazhou.

I'm afraid even the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty may not be clear about it.

Maybe not a lot, but definitely not less...

Chen Luo doesn't care about these things.

For me, in fact, whoever is unified is almost the same.

In terms of personal relationship, I do have a closer relationship with Da Zhou...

But back then, I and Da Zhou had already cut off cause and effect.

These days, although Wu Zhao and Xiao Xiangning abruptly continued the karma between themselves and Da Zhou.

But that's all.

He does not have the strength to change the direction of a country.

At the same time, there is no power to unify the world.

Just like when traveling through time, Chen Luo set a goal for himself.

live...

hold on...

Do not fight or grab...

Immortal.

Just be a passer-by in the world of mortals.

After all, I am just a eunuch with limited abilities.

Maybe one day.

Da Zhou really came to the edge of extinction.

He might make a move.

But at that time, it would not be the one who saved Da Zhou... He would only leave a little incense and inheritance for the Xiao family.

Xiao Xiangning understood this point,

Wu Zhao understood.

Even Emperor Wu of the Han now understands.

And this is their only hope.

This time, Li Bai brought a lot of news. As he went out to practice and was ready to be a mortal, there would naturally be a lot of gossip.

In addition to these, there is also news about Li Chungang.

It is said that he has entered the territory of Dazhou.

The court of the Great Zhou Dynasty received the news, and Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty personally ordered Jin Yiwei to go out to meet him... At the same time, he ordered people from various sects in the Great Zhou Dynasty to meet Li Chungang.

Be sure to ensure that Li Chungang returns to Kyoto safely.

"Although Li Chungang is the gatekeeper of the Tianwu Pagoda of the Great Zhou Dynasty, he guarded the capital during the God-blessed Immortal Transformation, but I don't think it will make your Great Zhou Hanwu Emperor take it so seriously.

He even went so far as to mobilize all the members of Jinyiwei and all the immortal cultivators from all over the country... This level cannot be described with a big movement. "

Li Bai said.

His eyes were on Chen Luo's body.

Chen Luo naturally knew what he meant.

It's nothing more than saying that it has its own credit.

Chen Luo didn't refute either.

Chen Luo also didn't expect that that brat back then would care so much about herself.

Not just Han Wudi.

It seems that the emperors of all dynasties are like this.

Even today's Emperor Qin is like this,

Is this the natural goodwill physique?
Chen Luo muttered.

Some people are naturally easy to win the favor of others... I just happen to have this kind of physique?
Thinking about it now, it's not bad.

good man...

Wherever you go, it is popular.

I naturally don't mind being a good old man,

Of course... the premise is that you don't plan on yourself, if you plan on yourself, then it won't work.

But these news are not the most important,

The most important thing is the commotion about the Great Wall in the north and the boundless sea in the south...

The so-called Northern Great Wall is the northern border of the Great Zhou, a city wall that is hundreds of miles long and shrouded in heavy snow all year round.

Because it is to the north of the Great Zhou Dynasty and the border between the Great Zhou Dynasty and the Northern Territory, it is called the Great Wall of the North.

The Boundless Sea in the southern border is the southernmost point of the Great Qin Dynasty, a vast ocean with no end, shrouded in thick fog for a long time.

This sea is called the Boundless Sea...

Beyond the Boundless Sea is the land of Southern Border!

One north and one south.

A Great Wall, a boundless sea.

This is the boundary that Daqin and Dazhou have been guarding all these years.

No matter how tense and changing the battles in Dazhou and Daqin were, the Great Wall Guards in the North and the Wuhai Guards in the South would not dispatch a single iota if it was not necessary.

For hundreds of years, the only time it was dispatched was the [-] Great Wall guards that Emperor Jianwu brought back from the Great Wall in the north.

But after they came out, they never went back, and later became the Red Flame Army,

And Emperor Jianwu later confiscated [-] troops and replenished the Great Wall Guards...

for hundreds of years.

The Great Wall of the North is also good,

Or the boundless sea in the south.

It has always been relatively quiet.

Except for a period of turmoil on the Great Wall in the north due to the awakening of the immortals and the advent of the age of evil spirits decades ago, there is no more.

Even that commotion was only for a short period of time.

So far, it has been calm again.

But now...

"Whether it's the Great Wall in the north or the Boundless Sea in the south, there seems to be commotion."

Li Bai's face became a little serious: "This time, it seems a little serious."

Chen Luo frowned tightly.

"Tell me?"

"Over the Great Wall in the north, I heard that a frost giant has appeared... and the Boundless Sea in the south has also changed. We are worried that it may be a strange ghost!"

Chen Luo's mouth twitched.

Frost Giants...

White Walkers.

This news is really exciting.

It's just that no matter the frost giant or the other ghosts, they all exist in legends.

According to what Li Bai meant, there was no news about them in ancient times...

I guess it's just a legend.

He actually thinks that it might be because the big monsters fled into the southern and northern regions, which caused changes in the southern and northern regions.

That's why there was a commotion on the frontier,

Chen Luo nodded.

This may be the greatest possibility...

The two chatted.

While eating roast duck.

It seems that those things just now are completely unimportant, even if the sky is falling, they will not be able to stop them from eating.

"Don't tell me, I haven't been back for a few years, and the roast duck in Xianyang is still the same..."

Li Bai sighed.

"Is that delicious?"

"That's unpalatable."

Chen Luo: ...

Looking at the roast duck in his hand, Chen Luo suddenly felt that it was not delicious.

He's still pretty picky.

At first, I thought it was okay to eat a little bit, but now that I heard Li Bai say this, I suddenly lost my taste.

"When I go to Yanjing someday, I invite you to eat Yanjing's roast duck. I heard that the roast duck there is good. The old man even wrote a poem about it. How about it? Do you have any ideas?"

"If you dare to chant, our family guarantees that you won't be able to get out of this yard..."

Li Bai: ...

If you don't listen, don't listen.

This attitude is a bit too bad.

After all, the old man was once a strong Nascent Soul in ancient times, so he didn't need face?

"By the way, you know him well?"

Li Bai asked Chen Luo.

The man in the mouth is naturally pointing to the man under the willow tree on the stone bridge.

"Not very familiar, I gave him wine twice, why? Do you know him?"

How could the old man know. "

Li Bai shook his head: "If I knew, I wouldn't say he's evil, but I want to come to someone who has a story about him... No, I'm a little curious."

Chen Luo nodded.

"Maybe someday he'll tell his story."

"If that day comes, please tell me!"

"it is good!"

What Chen Luo didn't expect was that he would soon know the man's story.

Xiangwu two days later.

Xianyang City roared...

In a short time, there was lightning and thunder.

Then it rained cats and dogs.

Chen Luo stood at the door.

Looking away, beside the stone bridge, the man under the willow tree is still sitting there quietly.

Let the rain fall on him.

Wet his body.

There was a thunderbolt...

fell on the willow tree.

Chen Luo wasn't worried at all.

as predicted.

The man is fine, and the willow tree is fine...

The falling lightning seemed to have landed on the water, except for some ripples, it had no effect.

He is a practitioner.

The repair is good.

Foundation building.

Too……

To be able to sit there without eating or drinking for such a long time, unless one entered the Foundation Establishment, how could one do it?
Chen Luo thought for a while.

Holding an umbrella, I picked up the fish basket and the fishing rod.

Along with the rain curtain, he walked towards the man.

He sat next to the man.

sit cross-legged...

The umbrella was vacated and pinned to the willow tree, covering Chen Luo's body from the rain and also shielding the man from wind and rain.

He took out a jug of wine and the green gourd on his waist.

The wine was placed in front of the man.

Open the green gourd.

Take a sip of wine.

He breathed a sigh of relief.

The fishing rod was thrown out...

【You were fishing in Longhu Lake under the rain, and you felt something in your heart, and the artistic conception was quite different... Your state of mind has been improved.

Your fishing experience has been enhanced.

EXP +100!

PS: Fishing in the rain, no hook, wireless, the life of fishing is free and easy! 】

When Chen Luo was fishing, the man didn't care at all.

But he couldn't help it after all.

"How to fish without hook and wireless?"

This was the first time I heard a man speak in the past month of living in Longhu.

The voice is a little hoarse.

Full of vicissitudes.

It seems like countless years have passed...

Chen Luo said lightly, "Who said you can't fish without a hook?"

He pointed to the lake.

In the lake.

A koi has jumped out of the lake... It just stayed in midair, as if biting an invisible hook.

Chen Luo stretched out his hand to untie the fish and held it in his palm.

"If it wants to, it'll take the bait, won't it?"

The man froze slightly...

Then stop talking.

He understood.

This man is not fishing.

is himself.

With just a fishing rod, I let myself speak...

I am not as good as him in the end.

He picked up the wine in front of him and drank it himself.

Chen Luo occasionally took a sip.

But they all drink their own way.

He catches his fish, he drinks his wine, and there is harmony,

"My name is Shiqiao!"

he said suddenly.

Chen Luo said: "Chen Luo..."

"I know you."

Shi Qiao said: "Recently something happened. Although I sat here and didn't leave, I know a little bit about the things in Xianyang. Da Zhou doesn't dispute my father-in-law, I have heard a little bit about it!"

"Very good, save some self-introduction steps."

Chen Luo smiled.

It's quite a bit proud.

An indisputable name, is this known to everyone in the world?
That was wonderful.

Going out now is because I really don't have to worry about encountering the kind of villain who will come up to me and have to fight the plot by myself.

"Want to hear a story?"

Shiqiao said.

Chen Luo was taken aback.

Then, under Shiqiao's puzzled gaze, he put away the fishing rod.

A small table was taken out of the storage bag.

He took out a plate of peanuts.

A plate of melon seeds.

A dish of beef.

The wine...is on the table.

I even grabbed a handful of 'yi' from the air, rubbed it for a while, and a small wine glass was formed.

Pour the wine into a wine glass.

When everything was ready, Chen Luo said, "Okay, you can tell your story now!"

Shi Qiao looked at Chen Luo, who was eating melon seeds, eating peanuts, and occasionally having a drink, his face began to look a little unnatural.

Mostly, maybe I regretted my decision to talk about my own story.

It's just that you can't take back what you say.

then……

He took another sip of his drink.

The eyes became a little blurred, and also became deep, and finally full of tenderness.

"I'm waiting for someone..."

……

The story of Shiqiao is actually very simple.

I can't say it's sad.

Not to mention earth-shattering.

Not to mention nothing that makes you cry.

Shi Qiaoben was a monk who cultivated in Lingquan Temple. After his spiritual energy recovered, he awakened the memory of his previous life!
According to the original plan, he should practice hard, strive to enter the immortal way, and seek longevity.

However, just as he was going down the mountain to practice and was about to compete for incense.

He meets a woman.

The woman is just an ordinary woman, but she is the most beautiful and admired woman Shiqiao has ever seen in his life.

Even a fairy in the world of cultivating immortals is not as good as her.

Perhaps, this is love at first sight, fall in love at first sight.

He fell in love with her.

She likes him too.

For this reason, he even gave up his life's Tao and his life's practice.

Even if, the two are people from completely different worlds.

Even if, Shiqiao is destined not to grow old with her.

But he never regrets it.

Unfortunately, the ending of the story is never happy.

He made a promise to meet her here...

he came!
But she didn't show up.

then……

He waited here, and waited until now.

"How many years have you been waiting?"

"do not know……"

Shiqiao said: "Maybe 30 years, maybe 50 years, or 80 years, I can't remember."

Chen Luo was silent.

Xu Jiu said: "You love her very much."

"Yes!"

"Have you ever thought that maybe she is no longer in this world? She is just a mortal after all..."

Shiqiao was silent.

did not speak.

After a long time, he said, "I can wait...she will show up eventually."

"maybe."

After death, there is a chance of reincarnation, but the chance is too slim.

"But 300 years of reincarnation may not be enough."

Chen Luo's words were not pleasant.

But it's true!
He was very lucky to meet Ji Bao and Zheng Sanbao.

But not everyone is themselves.

In the vast sea of ​​people, where is it so easy?

Shiqiao fell silent again.

"The abbot of Lingquan Temple came once, and he asked me a question.

He asked me how much I liked that woman. "

"How do you answer?"

"I would like to turn into a stone bridge and be exposed to the wind for 500 years, the sun for 500 years, and the rain for 500 years, just for her to pass by the bridge."

This time, Chen Luo was silent.

He didn't speak any more.

Just picked up the wine and toasted him.

Shiqiao wasn't talking either...

leaning there quietly,

His gaze was still on the stone bridge,

he is waiting

Waiting for that woman to appear...

……

From that day on, Chen Luo never went to see Shiqiao again.

Occasionally just looking from afar.

Also no longer close.

After hearing his story, Li Bai was emotional, but he didn't understand why Chen Luo never approached that place again.

I don't even want to chat,

Chen Luo told him that he was not unwilling.

Instead, feel ashamed.

Li Bai didn't understand...

Chen Luo didn't bother to explain.

Perhaps, it was because I was afraid of tarnishing his stone bridge Zen predestined relationship!

then……

Every time he saw the stone bridge, Chen Luo couldn't help but go to Fangxuan Pavilion that day, and by the way, look for that faint comfort in Miss Shixuan.

Love is too tiring.

He, Chen Luo, will never become an infatuated person after all.

Amitabha!
……

The eighth year of Hanwu.

this day.

Chen Luo stood in the yard.

Practicing Tai Chi.

These days, he seems to have vaguely touched the shadow of Tai Chi, so Chen Luo has been practicing Tai Chi very diligently during this period of time.

Not long after Chen Luo practiced.

A little boy came into the yard.

He gently came to Chen Luo's side,

Salute: "Sir..."

The voice is a little low.

With some restraint.

"I brought you finger biscuits, do you want to eat them now or later?"

The man is eight or nine years old.

young.

It's also good looking.

It's just that the body is a little poor, and it looks a little weak.

Chen Luo met him on the street half a year ago, and he was quite embarrassed at that time.

Chen Luo didn't want to pay attention to him.

But thinking about it, I still brought him back.

He treated the wounds on his lower body.

This is the end.

He became a frequent visitor in this courtyard.

Morning, noon and evening, all come to say hello.

Until a few days later, a guest came to the courtyard,

Daqin Yingyiren.

The child knelt down in front of him, calling his father...

At that time, Chen Luo sighed slightly.

It can be regarded as knowing the identity of the child: the second son of the Great Qin Emperor: Ying Shi.

In the Emperor Qin's mouth, the son is weak and should be the guy who encourages himself.

Only then did Chen Luo know that he was bullied because he offended the son of a court official...

then.

Chen Luo didn't want to talk anymore.

Ying Yiren didn't like him, but there were actually some reasons for that.

Emperor Daqin didn't talk about winning the world with Chen Luo.

I just chatted with Chen Luo about homework.

By the way, I told Chen Luo one thing: Old Master Ning of Yushan Academy died... Now the dean of the academy is Ning Shuan.

Chen Luo was very calm when he heard the news.

He was already prepared.

It's almost time to count.

That old guy couldn't stand his loneliness after all, so he wanted to walk underground.

pretty good.

At least he doesn't need to worry about the matter of the year bestowed by the gods anymore.

Hearing Yingshi's words, Chen Luo didn't stop Taijiquan in his hand.

Just asked: "Did you add sausage to the finger cake?"

Ying Shi respectfully said:
"I added meat sausage and an extra egg. Mr. Zhi likes spicy food, so I added some more chili."

"If you are interested, put it on the table and eat it after the boxing practice is over."

"it is good!"

Winning nod,

Carefully put the cake on the table, and then came to Chen Luo's side.

Stand side by side with him.

Just like Chen Luo.

Played Tai Chi in a decent manner.

He didn't know what kind of punch it was,

What are the benefits of practicing...

But he understood that it was right to practice.

It's always good for me...

Chen Luo didn't care about Ying Shi either.

He has been by his side for half a year. In the past six months, rain or shine, he has learned to fish and practice boxing by himself every day.

Even when he cleaned the yard by himself, he also learned it.

Chen Luo didn't stop him either.

This little guy is good at everything, but he is slow to understand and slow to learn.

Chen Luo didn't say anything, everyone has talent...

Besides, it's better to slow down.

Too fast is not necessarily a good thing.

Training is over...

Chen Luo retracted his fist.

Over there, Ying Shi had already brought over the towel to wash Chen Luo's face.

There are some winks.

Chen Luo was somewhat satisfied.

This little guy is not bad...

he likes.

Pick up the finger biscuits and eat them. This finger biscuit is also good...

But Chen Luo couldn't take it anymore.

Plop.

Ying Shi knelt directly in front of Chen Luo.

He knocked his head to the ground.

"Please sir, accept me as an apprentice..."

Chen Luo fell silent, and slowly put the pancake in her hand back on the table.

"How much is this finger cake? Our family will pay you back...

Wait a moment and calculate the service fee for the past six months, our family will not take advantage of you. "

special.

This finger cake smashes teeth!

Wing World: ...
