Chapter 73 Conversation
County government.
Xing Zhi was still looking at the two things on the table and thinking carefully.
There are too many elements in Ming Qitian's body. Involving her will only disturb the train of thought, but with only beads and books left, there are too few clues.
Xing Zhi sighed, thinking that Pei Ye and the others would be back soon.
Xu Weizhou finally went outside the city by himself because Xing Zhi was wondering whether to let Ming Qitian leave.
If the Immortal Lord is looking for Ming Qitian, this is certainly a good way: firstly, his plan will not succeed; secondly, if he pursues Mingqitian, Fenghuai can still keep it; thirdly, even if Mingqitian is After his death, Yunlangshan's anger was only directed at Zhu Shijiao.
She rubbed her forehead, and after staying with Zhu Gaoyang for a long time, she would always feel a little ashamed that she had the third thought.
The key to the problem lies in three unknown points: whether the threat to Xianjun is Ming Qitian, whether Xianjun has locked the target at this time, and what level of strength he currently has.
Every yes or no answer will bring completely different results. Xing Zhi has long known that in many cases the success or failure of a decision has little to do with the wisdom of the decision-maker. A clever woman cannot make a meal without straw.
She got up and walked to the backyard.
If you can't get decision-making support from the enemy, you can still start from your own side. After all, Master Mingjian is not a puppet who can be manipulated by others.
Coming to the backyard, in such an anxious and stressful atmosphere, the main tone here turned out to be gentle and peaceful.
The old pear tree leaned quietly against the wall, the air was cool and clear, and the civil servants walked quietly and spoke calmly as they passed through the courtyard.
The man in white clothes was sitting by the window, as if he had abandoned all the distractions in the outside world, holding a book in his hand and reading it carefully, still whispering to himself, but there was no black cat at hand.
She is obviously the anchor of the atmosphere in the yard.
The back of the book was facing Xing Zhi, and she glanced at it. It was "Records of Sword Teaching by Zen Masters".
'Such an unpopular thing...' Xing Zhi thought helplessly.
Although she knows that everyone has their own path, a person with unparalleled talent like Ming Qitian should not let chores interrupt a single minute of his training time.
She also knew that this world-famous woman was only twenty-one years old, and had spent nearly twenty years in the mountains, with almost no involvement in the world.
But these days, Xing Zhi, who is busy with many tasks and has always been synonymous with being capable and decisive in the eyes of others, can't help but feel a little annoyed and complaining when he sees this quiet and detached picture.
——Is she too well protected?
The terrible enemy will come at any time. Should you leave or stay? How to meet the enemy? What kind of cooperation is required... Which things do not need to be connected one by one.
This includes not only the consideration of combat power, but also the status of the son of Ming Qitian's daughter who cannot sit down in court - if you don't nod clearly, who would dare to assign you to fight against a powerful enemy?
However, she was able to start reading this ancient book early this morning without any distractions, looking like a young lady who is used to letting others worry about her own business.
But no one here can guarantee your safety.
Could it be that there is a secret method to kill Taiyi True Dragon Immortal Lord in that book?
Does Xing Zhi know, because Zhu Gaoyang was once ordered by his master to revise his sword theory, so he wanted to use this book to fool him, because he thought his master had never read it. But after reading half of it, I felt it was too obscure and boring, so I changed it to a more common one.
Thinking of that bright and handsome face, Xing Zhi calmed down a little.
She knew that this was just a small mental imbalance caused by the heavy workload, and she didn't really have any objections to the Ming Sword Master - he is still willing to stay here, isn't it the best answer?
You can't help much when fighting by yourself, so you should pay more attention to chores.
Xing Zhi gently opened the door and said with a smile: "Sword Master Ming?"
Ming Qitian raised her bright face and cast a peaceful gaze.
Seeing this face, the restlessness in Xing Zhi's heart was completely calmed down. She said warmly: "The enemy is probably too dangerous, and maybe they are coming for you. We would like to ask you to go to the city to take shelter first. What do you think? how?"
"No need." The woman's answer was unexpectedly decisive. Her voice was calm and her clear eyes seemed to be able to penetrate Xing Zhi's heart. "I'm sorry for your concern. Don't think too much about me. I will be with whoever I meet." Fighting, that’s all.”
"But..." Xing Zhi suspected that she still didn't realize the danger, "The strength of that Immortal Lord is unpredictable now, maybe..."
Xing Zhi hesitated for a moment and whispered: "It's not impossible to reach the Tianlou realm."
"Um."
Xing Zhi was stunned for a moment, and hope suddenly rose in her heart: "Do you have a way to deal with Tianlou?"
"No, Mr. Xing." Ming Qitian said calmly and seriously again, "I don't think so much. I will fight whoever I meet, that's all."
"But what if we can't beat him?"
Ming Qitian just smiled slightly.
"..."
Xing Zhi understood the meaning of this sentence.
If you can't defeat, you will naturally suffer the consequences of failure. If you lose, you lose, if you die, you die, that's all.
Only then did Xing Zhi remember the talent of the person in front of him who was first famous in the world. It was overshadowed by the halo of being the successor of "Sword Tao", the third on the Crane List, and the master of the Glazed Sword, making it somewhat forgotten.
That was the transparent state of mind that allowed Ming Qitian to recognize the master of [Zhanxin Liuli], and it was called the "Bingjingjian".
It is also the trait that makes her immune to the mind-controlling ability of the Immortal Lord Quail.
Xing Zhi found that she had a deep misunderstanding of this young sword master.
It's not that she's used to having everything arranged and doesn't understand everything, it's that she understands everything clearly in her mind, but she just doesn't get bothered by these things.
For normal people, facing an unpredictable and powerful enemy will inevitably lead to anxiety and fear, and looking for countermeasures within a limited time will inevitably lead to anxiety and uneasiness. If one decides to escape alone, one will inevitably feel ashamed. If one wants to stay and live and die together, one must be heroic. ,passionate.
But for Ming Qitian, these situations and decisions will not affect her mood. She naturally chooses to stay and face strong enemies.
Since I had nothing to do while waiting for the enemy to arrive, I just continued reading.
Just as she rushed thousands of miles to rescue Pei Ye as soon as he fired the sword talisman, it was not because of how much she loved this young man she had never met. After risking her life to save him, she would not feel that she had done any great favor to Pei Ye from now on. .
She just does what she wants to do, without being hampered by fear, worry, gains or losses, etc. She never hesitates or gets entangled. This is the innate "mirror of the mirror".
Xing Zhi was stunned for a while, nodded, and closed the door to say goodbye.
At this moment, the hoarse voice in the room startled her, and then she noticed that there was an old man in a wheelchair in the room.
It turned out that Ming Qitian was not talking to herself just now, but to the old man.
The hoarse voice said: "Zen Master Zhaokong already had some demonic obstacles at that time. The disciple who wrote this book, Zunshi Yin, revised this dialogue in his later years a lot, so it looks much more empty and shallow than the previous one - in fact The realm of 'Buddha takes care of me' that he pursues has been achieved long ago by your predecessors in Yunlang Mountain."
Ming Qitian's eyes widened slightly: "Senior, you mean..."
"Yes, I can teach you." The old man said hoarsely.
Xing Zhi was worried about the origin of the elder Pei Ye when he suddenly saw Ming Qitian Surong turning her head to look outside the room and holding the hilt of her sword.
Then Xing Zhi felt the strong wind approaching from behind.
