Chapter 29 (9)
Lu Qian replied: "Brother Li, you did it right. Nowadays, everyone is selfish. There are not many people who can take care of the overall situation in this way. In my opinion, you should not chase it. As you said, this determination was finally made and forced Xueer away successfully. This effect is hard-won, and you should cherish it even more. Once you take a step back or explain the difficulties to her, what will happen to Xueer? You should know better than me? She will definitely stay and share the hardships with you. Even if you pull nine hundred cows and two hundred horses, you will not be able to drag her away. In that case, wouldn't it be even more dangerous? Are you greedy for a moment of speed and balance of your heart, would you rather let Xueer's life hang on the tip of the needle, or temporarily endure it so that she can spend the rest of her life safely?"
Li Yijie clenched his fist and knocked his head, saying, "This is what bothers me the most. I can't let Xue'er have something to do, but I... don't want her to hate me."
Lu Qian said: "Who made you the leader of the martial arts world? This is similar to the True Buddha: good things are equal to sentient beings, and bad things must be supported by you. You are born not in this way, so why not give the leader to me? You can live a small life with Xueer in the future!"
Li Yijie said slightly anger: "Brother Lu Xian..." He heard Lu Qian's analysis before, and he nodded slightly and looked sad. When he talked about the position of the leader of the alliance, although he knew that he had never given up on this position, he always wanted to sit down, even if he had a good time. However, after spending a few days with him, he just liked to take advantage of him. He was not a big traitor and evil person. He was roughly like this six years ago. On the contrary, he was too obsessed with the difference between good and evil back then, so he turned against him.
After staying in the world for a long time, I understand that there is no such person in the world who is wholeheartedly devoted to the public, and even he can't do it himself. No matter how kind a knight is, he will have some selfishness, but he will have different opinions. But if you have to do anything, why should you kill him? Therefore, when you get along with others, you will be much more generous. I thought that Lu Qian would not be a villain who did not forget to take advantage of the situation at this time, otherwise he would only blame himself for seeing the wrong person and having nothing to say.
Lu Qian stopped seeing the good news and smiled and said, "Haha, just kidding, just kidding. Don't worry, you are Xue'er's senior brother, and I don't want her to hate you. When you and Jiang Liechen make a break, if you are still alive, it goes without saying that everyone will be happy. If you are really... that, cough cough... unfortunately, I will take care of Xue'er for you. Even as an elder brother, I will definitely accompany her. Then I will tell her your difficulties honestly. Xue'er is a kind and understanding girl, and she will understand."
Li Yijie said, "I really want to thank Brother Lu Xian." He looked up at the hill where Nangong Xue's back disappeared, and sighed, "Where do you think Xueer will go when she leaves? Don't be able to think about it for a while..." Lu Qian smiled and said, "You can rest assured that this is. Even if there are ten girls looking for a shortcoming together, there will not be one of them. I know her too much. She was wronged and only thought about how to clarify and remedy it. But I have never thought about self-destruction and severing such a useless thing."
Li Yijie said: "But she said just now, I will regret it. Brother Lu Xian, you also saw her eyes at that time, and I was worried... I am not afraid of ten thousand, just afraid of it." Lu Qian smiled calmly and said: "If you still miss her, you'd better think about how to prevent her from being serious. Maybe she was very excited this time and went to find a deep mountain forest to live in seclusion. When she came back, she would also crack your martial arts in a cave."
Li Yijie smiled bitterly and said, "That's right. As long as she leaves me, she is an ordinary girl, and no one needs to deal with her anymore. Even if she recognizes me, Li Yijie's junior sister, and I am not nearby, they will not always think about making things difficult for her."
Lu Qian smiled and nodded. He naturally knew that Nangong Xue's danger would only increase after that, but he would not hurt his life in the short term. He sent more people to search at this time. When she completely gave up on Li Yijie, he would take advantage of the situation and act as a hero in her mind to make her happy. Perhaps she would agree if she was sad and confused. After Li Yijie nodded, he often had no chance to object.
Cheng Jiaxuan also followed the routine and persuaded Li Yijie a few words, most of whom were not sincere. In her eyes, whether Li Yijie's brother and sister were separated or reunited had nothing to do with her, but seeing that Lu Qian admired Nangong Xue, she hoped that they could become husband and wife.
Li Yijie was still depressed, but roughly gave up the idea of chasing Nangong Xue. Now he was depressed, and the joy of living out of the cave was diluted a lot, and he lost the interest of proposing to play wild game earlier. The three of them walked out of this barren mountain and went to a small restaurant on the side of the road to have a casual meal, just to satisfy their hunger.
The area is still remote, with few dishes of signature dishes on the table. Li Yijie was worried about Nangong Xue's safety and food was not delicious. Lu Qian was thinking about when to send people and where to find out the news. Cheng Jiaxuan had a very small appetite, so the three of them were not very picky.
I was trapped in the cave for many days, and my hunger appeared and disappeared. Unfortunately, this time it was just when it disappeared. I couldn't fill a few bites of food and lost my appetite. I called my friend to check out and leave. I didn't delay the trip on the road, and rushed back to the capital and headed straight to the palace. Because the three of them were working in the palace and their ranks were not low, not only were they not blocked when entering the palace gate, but the officers and soldiers guarding the gate saluted and greeted each other. Li Yijie couldn't help but remember the embarrassment of Shen Shiyun's personal bodyguard Hu Wei and he took him into and out of the well when he first entered the palace, and smiled bitterly.
After leaving the palace for a long time, I wandered around for a while, but saw that the lights were decorated with colors, which was more beautiful than the Forbidden City in the past. I asked the officers and soldiers about the situation. Five days later, I heard that it was Prince Fu's fiftieth birthday, and this attitude was specially for him to celebrate his birthday.
Prince Nafu was named Shangguan, and he had already surrendered to Manchuria before the Qing army entered the pass. He was a Han general. At first, because of the differences between Manchu and Han, he was not highly valued in the army. He only made a heroic contribution to protecting the emperor during a siege, so he was promoted to the king without any rules. Later, he assisted the emperor, gave advice, and led by the leader, and was always highly appreciated. He was finally named Prince before Huang Taiji died.
Emperor Shunzhi Fulin was a child who grew up and was close to him. This time, to celebrate his birthday, he specially arranged a lot in the palace. It just so happened that the concubines were bored every day and were happy with some festivals. At the same time, they also dressed up, hoping to take the opportunity to win the emperor's eyes and be honored and favored in the future. Concubine Yun, Shen Shiyun, had no friendship with Prince Fu, but this time she didn't know why, and seemed extremely enthusiastic.
Li Yijie did not recognize Prince Fu and was even less interested in the palace banquet. He tried indirectly and asked about the recent days that a large number of people from the world came to the palace to cause trouble. The guards looked confused and said that there was no such thing. Li Yijie was puzzled. Last time he was ambushed by Jiang Liechen and separated from everyone. When he escaped from the cave, he could not get any news about them. But his fellow practitioners were infected with poisonous smoke and should not have been left alone. How could he not ask for the antidote?
Lu Qian was worried about the secret book of the Demon Sect, and he had been reading it for a long time. But Cheng Jiaxuan insisted that the secret book was hidden in the palace, so he could not force it. He had to think about it every day, hoping to return to the palace soon. Now he finally came back, so he didn't have more time to spend with Li Yijie. He pretended to comfort him a few words and advised him to go to rest first, nourish his spirit and then question Shen Shiyun.
When Li Yijie first heard Cao Zhenyan say that, although he still tried his best to protect him, he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. He has been with Nangong Xue day and night these days, and his feelings for Shen Shiyun are not as strong as before. But this time, he stood in front of Yinxue Palace again, Shen Shiyun's figure naturally appeared in his mind. Thinking of her every frown and smile, he deeply attracted him. Even if this matter was really her mastermind, he would no longer be able to scold her.
I sighed and recalled that I had recently heard from my junior brother's message and returned to Huashan, and then I led the crowd to wipe out the Demon Sect and look for the treasures of the Seven Evils. The Shaolin Temple had a fierce battle of good and evil, and the Five Poison Sects were provoking them. A series of trivial matters followed one after another. It was hard to figure out how long it took for me to sleep peacefully.
When I came to my previous room, the ground was almost spotless and all kinds of things were placed in order. After he left the palace, there were still servants who came here to clean it, but they didn't move around with his things. A warm feeling rose in my heart. It was like a long-term wanderer. One day, I finally returned home. Even the last time I went home, I didn't feel this touch. Do you really think of the palace as your home?
I looked up and saw the flat bed sheets. A burst of fatigue came up. My limbs were all soft. I walked to the edge of the bed a few steps, raised my head and lay down. Not long after, I snored loudly, and I slept very hard.

Lu Qian sent Li Yijie away, and didn't even want to wait for a minute, so he urged Cheng Jiaxuan to go to the side room of the main hall. Cheng Jiaxuan searched in the bookcase, moved out all the thick books, and then found a bunch of messy small items. Then he took out a booklet at the bottom of the box, carefully wiped off the dust on the cover, and handed it to Lu Qian, and said, "I said, I'm very trustworthy, how about it, right? Look at this one."
Lu Qian grabbed it and was so excited that he even trembled with his hands. He carefully opened the first page, took a quick look, and immediately nodded and responded: "That's right, that's it!"
Although he didn't read the secret book for a long time, the outlines of various graphic mental methods were deeply imprinted in his mind. He took a risk in Tongguan and took a break to steal Li Yijie's secret book. He happened to steal a fake book. He was not sure of him at that time. After confirming that it was fake, the original secret book became clearer in his mind. He worked hard for six years and never thought about it for a day. When he thought of the extremely exquisite martial arts contained in it, he was already drunk.
At this moment, I finally held the treasure scroll that I had been thinking about day and night again, and my heart was about to jump out of my chest. I said with a trembling voice: "Yes, that's great, Xiaoxuan, you have made great contributions this time. I thank you. I won't scold you again in the future."
Cheng Jiaxuan smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether you make a contribution or not. As long as you are willing to believe it, I am not a villain who is untrustworthy. I look down on that kind of person the most. But this secret... is that good? It's all broken by others."
Lu Qian said: "What do you know? Judging from the word traces of the books in the cave, if they have been in the same position as Jiang Liechen and An Yeyun, they made their debut for more than twenty years. They can still be rampant in the world and the Demon Cult can dominate the martial arts world. What is the reason? Because the last words in the cave have never been seen. Things that no one knows are gone? I asked me to say that woman is stupid enough, and she only wants to keep it hidden, but she never thought about whether anyone will see it at that time. Now that I have picked up ready-made cheapness for me, I have also practiced those cracking methods. Shouldn't I do something to completely disappear?"
Cheng Jiaxuan nodded sharply and smiled, "Oh! So that's it! You want to practice the Kung Fu of the Demon Sect by yourself, so you don't want others to understand the method of breaking the law. As for Li Yijie, you play with him like pinching a snail with three hands. When you practice this secret, you will be happy whenever you want to ask him to get out of the position of leader of the league, and you will be allowed to be happy whenever you want to rush him off the stage."
