The emperor's chariot moved, and the army was about to return. In an instant, the situation changed ever-changingly, and the capital once again fell under the control of the Holy Empress.
Standing on the top of the Mausoleum of Books, she looked at somewhere in the capital and said, "What are you doing here?"
After the Patriarch Akiyama and the priest entered the capital, they have always been very silent and low-key, and it is easy for people to forget their existence.
But since the Holy Empress Tianhai spoke at this time, they couldn't continue to pretend that they didn't exist.
"This whole matter has nothing to do with my Qiushan family."
Patriarch Qiushan looked at the top of the Mausoleum of Heavenly Books, and said with an extremely humble expression: "I want to teach my mother that we came to the capital to appreciate the maple leaves."
This explanation is unbelievable, especially clumsy, even stupid.
But that doesn't matter, because what the Holy Empress Tianhai needs is an explanation, an attitude.
Patriarch Akiyama's attitude is very correct, and the more stupid his reasons are, the more correct his attitude is.
The Empress Tianhai was a little satisfied, she looked at the other two places in the capital, and asked, "What about you? You are also here to appreciate the maple leaves?"
There was a carriage parked under Qianqing Gate, and the old lady of Mu Tuo's family was standing by the side of the carriage with a walking stick in his hand.
The old lady had a pair of little feet wrapped around her feet, but when she landed on the rain-soaked street, she looked like a nail. She didn't tremble at all, but her voice trembled a little.
"I just haven't been to the capital for a long time, so I came to the north to see, and I have some things to do by the way, so that I can teach my mother that my grandson-in-law is about to give birth."
The Desheng Gate was tightly closed, and the Patriarch of the Wu family stood in front of the gate and explained seriously to the direction of Tianshu Mausoleum: "My lady, don't get me wrong, I'm here to see my son-in-law."
It is also a clumsy and stupid explanation, but it is different from Patriarch Akiyama, because people are mentioned in these two reasons.
The old lady of the Mu Tuo family and the head of the Wu family left the capital in the dark.
The Holy Empress Tianhai didn't speak, she didn't know what she was thinking, did she feel that the attitudes of these two families were not correct, or was she thinking about the Tang family, the only one of the four great aristocratic families that did not appear
But these are all indifferent, even if the four great families really show their attitude, it is impossible to change the current situation.
She didn't kill Chen Changsheng, let alone eat Chen Changsheng. No matter how unfathomable the situation that Taoist had set up in the dark for twenty years, it would never affect her again.
The emperor's chariot map has been activated, and the dense aura envelopes the entire capital city. Except for Taoist Ji, the old lady of the Mu Tuo family and the head of the Wu family who have never dared to set foot in the capital, no one can leave.
The four powerhouses in the sacred domain in front of the Mausoleum of Books of Heaven also couldn't do it.
Her big Zhou cavalry is heading towards Kyoto.
There are still many ministers and generals who are loyal to her in Kyoto.
The overall situation has been decided, and now it seems that all he needs to do is wait for her order.
However, at this moment, a voice resounded in Kyoto.
The voice was very soft, as if muttering to himself, and then gradually increased, turning into some kind of sharp questioning, mixed with some laughter, which was very ironic, but gradually you would feel that it was It is self-deprecating, full of infinite emotions and awe of certain things, and finally everything returns to silence.
Such a complex sound and emotion is actually just a short sentence.
"Do you think you really won?"
The person who speaks is the Taoist.
He stood in front of a remote market in Kyoto, stepping on some dirty sewage, behind him was a mutton shop that smelled of blood.
The butcher shop is often the first place to wake up in a city. At this time, the night is very deep, and before dawn, the lights in the shop are turned on first.
Chop chop chop chop, the clear sound of chopping meat came from the shop.
The people in the butcher's shop didn't know the imperial chariots rising up not far away, nor did they know that there was a person standing outside the shop.
Ji Taoist looked in the direction of Tianshu Mausoleum, and said with emotion: "I always thought that tonight was the game I arranged for you, but now I know it's not."
On the top of the Mausoleum of Books of Heaven, Chen Changsheng looked at the picture in the night, looking at the master on the picture, his mood was still as bewildered as before, and there was more meaning of being unclear.
Or was it because the Empress Tianhai was standing in front of him, and she had just changed his fate
"But... this is also not your game."
"I am in the game, and you are also in the game. This is still a game."
"This is not a round arranged by me, nor by you. This is a round arranged by Tiandao for you and me."
"Heavenly Dao Bureau."
Chen Changsheng didn't understand what these words meant.
The Holy Queen of Tianhai said indifferently: "You are still the same as hundreds of years ago. You always like to say these seemingly mysterious and difficult words. After all, the magic stick is the magic stick. You want to use these words to shake my heart? How can there be any way of heaven? It’s nothing more than a small conspiracy of yours.”
"Yes, this is my game, it should be perfect, whether you choose to kill him or eat him, I have prepared corresponding means, but I didn't expect that you would choose to save him, because I didn't expect, like A ruthless woman like you actually has moments of soft-heartedness, and what I didn't expect is that you have already entered the realm of hidden spirits."
Taoist Ji's voice was mixed with the sound of meat being cut in the butcher's shop, it was not indistinct, but very clear, echoing on the top of the Tianshu Mausoleum.
Other than that, there was no other sound heard in the whole of Kyoto.
The palace was quiet, and the Tianshu mausoleum was silent.
The holy empress has entered the realm of hidden spirits
Many people have speculated about this, but it was finally confirmed tonight, and this news will still shock the entire continent.
"You are indeed very strong. Even if you eat the fruit of Chen Changsheng, even if the starry sky really sends divine punishment, it may not be able to hurt your fundamentals."
Taoist Ji's voice echoed in the night.
The slightly cold wind was blowing on the top of the Mausoleum of Heavenly Books, lifting the black hair of the Holy Empress Tianhai.
Standing here quietly like this, standing at the highest place in the world, she looks like a demon god, giving people a feeling of invincibility.
Whether it is Chen Changsheng who is close at hand, or the infinite bi and the stargazer below the Tianshu Mausoleum, or the monk by the stream tens of thousands of miles away, they all have some kind of thought, even if there is a change in the way of heaven, even if the fate is chaotic. Flow, even if the lightning falls on her body, she can not care about it.
"The only thing that can hurt your fundamentals and make you weak is yourself."
Accompanied by the sound of meat being cut in the butcher shop, Taoist Ji's voice became tough and cold.
"In your opinion, your will is more important and stronger than Heavenly Dao. When Heavenly Dao wants you to kill him, you just want him to live. I must admit that your self-confidence is still so heartbreaking. But have you ever thought about how Heaven will respond when you try to put your will above Heaven's Dao?"
The Holy Empress Tianhai said: "I have never paid attention to other people's thoughts, even this starry sky."
Ji Daoren's voice was full of emotion: "So... you chose to save him."
The Empress Tianhai said, "So what if I save him?"
"You are perfect and powerful. We didn't have any chance of winning, but tonight, you chose to change his life. I believe you paid a lot for it."
Ji Daoren's voice became cold and tough: "For example, your realm has fallen now, you are no longer invincible, and this...is the answer of Heaven to you."
Hearing this passage, countless people hidden in the night of Kyoto began to think after being shocked.
Is what Taoist Ji said true? In order to bring Chen Changsheng back from the edge of the abyss of death, the Holy Empress Tianhai really paid such a high price
Chen Changsheng looked at the back of the Holy Empress Tianhai, looked at her hands behind her back, felt a little strange, and was in a trance.
The cool night wind blows through the streets and alleys, taking away the residual temperature and faint smell of blood.
After a moment of silence, the voice of the Holy Empress Tianhai rang out, very indifferent, very condescending, with a touch of sarcasm.
"What I am going to do, you mortals will never understand."
Looking at the world shrouded in darkness, she said: "My heart, even the so-called Dao of Heaven, cannot be grasped."
This sentence is not overbearing, but it reveals absolute self-confidence.
She did not deny Ji Taoist's words - in order to renew Chen Changsheng's meridians and change his fate against the sky, even she, who had already entered the realm of hidden spirits, paid a heavy price.
So where does her current self-confidence come from
"Yes, I was wrong just now. Madam, you don't hesitate to fall into the realm to save him. Naturally, it can't be because of such a ridiculous reason as a loving mother and pity for her son."
Taoist Ji stood on Yu Street, looked at the top of the Mausoleum of Heavenly Books and said calmly: "You want to use this to fight against the blood oath you made when you sacrificed to the starry sky, and to erase the four words "defying the sky and changing your fate" from your heart. shadows left behind, so that you may have a chance at true greater freedom."
Not everyone can understand these short sentences.
Only Zhu Luo and other powerhouses in the sacred field, or those who have seen the threshold, can understand the true meaning of it.
The Empress Tianhai is the strongest in the mainland today, possessing an unimaginably strong will.
Her only weakness or spiritual gap lies in the vow she made when she sacrificed to the starry sky in order to change her fate against the sky.
This does not refer to the oath itself, but to the act itself, just like what she said to Chen Changsheng earlier, she once bowed her head to the Dao of Heaven.
What she has to do now is to erase the layer of dust that was cast on her soul by the old incident back then.
She wanted Chen Chang to survive.
If she can do this, then she will be complete, without any weakness.
In this state, she is still invincible even if she falls from the hidden realm to the holy!
The Holy Empress Tianhai said: "You think too much and talk too much, it will appear boring."
Taoist Ji said, "Really? Then if I say that Chen Changsheng is not actually your son, wouldn't that be more interesting?"
His voice was very calm, without any emotion, so it seemed extraordinarily cold.
In the deepest room of the shop on the street, a thick oil knife fell heavily on the chopping board, the mutton was cut open continuously, and blood was spattered everywhere.
