Chapter 575: The Waves Wash Away All the Heroes
[Ding!]
[Detected that the host killed the Son of Heaven "Ning Yongnian"]
[The host has plundered all of his luck, and is awarded 700 system points]
[It is detected that the host has no connection with the "Heavenly Dao" of this world and cannot enjoy the luck bonus. The luck of "Yellow Dragon" is now distributed in the form of special magical powers]
[Congratulations to the host for mastering the special magical power "Dragon Locking"]
[Locking the Dragon: A special magical power that can create a barrier of luck to restrict the actions of warriors below the third level. Its effect and range of action depend on the realm of the user.]
“.”
When the system prompt sounded in his mind, Wei Changtian's expression did not change at all.
He just stood silently in the wind and snow, letting the snowflakes fall on him.
Blood slid down the blade of the knife, dripped along the tip to the feet, and finally soaked into the ground.
Looking at the small ball of black mist attached to the center of the corpse's eyebrows, Wei Changtian knew that it was most likely Ning Yongnian's soul.
Ever since he obtained the "Soul Eater", he could see this object between the eyebrows of the dead.
And as long as Wei Changtian chooses to absorb this black mist now, his cultivation level will probably increase significantly.
After all, this is the soul of a second-grade master.
However, he did not activate the Soul Devourer, nor did he take any action.
Wei Changtian just stood there motionless, watching the black mist gradually leave his forehead and then hover half a meter above the corpse.
Obviously, no one else could see this scene except him.
Wei Changtian also knew that this wisp of dead soul was not the same kind as the residual soul in the Xuantian Sword.
The latter has intelligence and memory.
But the former has nothing, it is just a wisp of spirit that carries part of the deceased's cultivation.
It's like the demon spirit pill left behind after the death of a demon beast.
Thinking in this way, even if Wei Changtian absorbed Ning Yongnian's soul, it would not be a big deal. At least it would definitely not be considered "cannibalism".
But even so, he was still unwilling to do it.
The reason may be just to give the emperor the final dignity. The Cangshan Mountains are covered with snow, and the light shines brightly in the southern sky.
The contrast between Ning Yongnian's former dominance and the devastation he faces today is as sharp as the blood in the snow.
"call!"
The small ball of black mist suddenly rose up, first circling around the bloody corpse, and then flew high into the air.
Suddenly, it paused as if reluctant to leave, just like a traveler looking back at his hometown, looking at the mountains and rivers that remain the same.
The snow that had been falling all night suddenly stopped at this moment, and the night sky became clear in an instant.
“.”
"I may still be in power for another fifty years! During these fifty years, I will lead my Daning soldiers to sweep across the world and conquer the eight wildernesses!"
"Yu'er, do you still recognize me as your father?"
"My fellow countrymen of Yuanzhou City, I am sorry for you."
"Old Li, where do you think I went wrong?"
"Master Wei, please, you must protect Daning."
“.”
A small ball of black fog suddenly swayed several times and stayed in the night sky for a very long time.
But as if there was an invisible force pulling it, it continued to climb higher and higher under Wei Changtian's gaze.
Finally, it was unable to resist that force any more, and so it flew aimlessly towards the bright moon. The Yangtze River rolls eastward, and its waves wash away all heroes.
Success or failure is all in vain.
The green mountains remain, and the sunsets are still red.
The white-haired fisherman and woodcutter on the river bank are accustomed to seeing the autumn moon and spring breeze.
A pot of wine to celebrate our reunion.
So many things in ancient and modern times are now just a joke.
One month later.
Da Shu, Chengjian Prefecture.
Chengjian Prefecture is located in the southeastern area of the former Dafeng, but now it has become the territory of "Da Shu".
Although Wei Changtian killed Ning Yongnian, he did not violate his previous promise of "dividing the world into three parts" and still divided the sixty states of Fengning and Ning according to the ratio of "35, 15, and 10".
The thirty-five northern states were returned to Ning Wenjun, and the country's name remained "Da Ning".
The fifteen states in the southeast were returned to Ning Yuke, who changed from a "king" to an "emperor". The Kingdom of Shu officially became independent from Daning and was named "Da Shu".
The ten southwestern states were under the control of Xu Suisui. She used Li Qi to quickly win over the hearts of the people in these ten states, and then established a new dynasty, naming it "Xinfeng".
From the original Daning and Dafeng to the current Daning, Dashu and Xinfeng.
From dividing the world equally to standing on three sides.
The changes happened too fast, but they seemed natural.
After all, after Ning Yongnian's death, no one could compete with the Wei family. In addition, with foreign enemies at hand, everyone knew that what the two countries needed most now was peace.
Therefore, all the chaos seemed to come to an abrupt end overnight, and the long-awaited peaceful days finally arrived before the iron hoof of the Four-Nation Alliance.
Of course.
Although the war is no longer going on, the dramatic change in the situation still leaves the people of both countries with an indescribable feeling.
The people of Daning are better off, after all, Daning is not destroyed.
But for the people of Dafeng, "Xinfeng" still has an extra "new" in "Feng".
In the end, Dafeng was still destroyed.
Even Li Qi disappeared after the establishment of the new Fengtian court.
No one knew where he went or whether he was dead or alive.
Xu Suisui, who had become the new empress of Feng, did not give an answer, but told Qin Zhengqiu that she used Li Qi to repay a favor.
Since it is a return of favor, the target is most likely Wei Changtian who did not "kill" at Lingbo Pavilion.
As for what Wei Changtian wants Li Qi to do, build a city and Jishidiang.
As a century-old medical clinic, Jishidiang has an excellent reputation throughout Chengjian Prefecture.
Not only are all the doctors highly skilled in medicine, but the consultation and medicine prices are also very cheap. If the patient's family is really poor, not only will they not charge money, but they will even secretly add a few copper coins into the medicine bag.
Just as the name of Jishidiang suggests, it means to save the world with medicine.
"Three qian of turmeric, two qian of mulberry branches, three qian of licorice, and one qian of angelica."
"Take the medicine. Remember to take it once every morning and evening. If you still don't feel better after five days, come back to get more medicine."
"The shopkeeper has instructed that if you are short of money, you can buy it on credit. It's no big deal."
“.”
It was noon at this time, and people were coming and going in Jishiditang, and various shouts could be heard everywhere.
In a small house in the backyard, a white-haired old man was sitting opposite a masked woman.
"Girl, I don't care about gender or background when accepting a disciple."
"I only ask you one question, and you need to answer truthfully."
Looking at the persistent eyes of the woman opposite him, the old man asked softly:
"I see that the girl is not young anymore and seems to be from a wealthy family."
"An ordinary girl should find a family to marry at this time, but I don't know why the girl wants to study medicine?"
“.”
The faint smell of herbs filled the small room, drifting into the nose like a gossamer.
The masked woman was stunned for a moment, then she slowly replied in a low voice:
"I have been guilty of one person before."
"I feel so guilty about this, I don't know how to repay him, so I want to accumulate some merit for him."
"For every person he kills, I will save one person. If I can't repay him in this life, I will repay him in the next life. If I still can't repay him in the next life, I will repay him in all my lives."
“That’s why I want to study medicine.”
“.”
The old man's white beard trembled slightly, and his hand, which was about to pour tea, stopped in mid-air.
He had heard countless reasons for studying medicine in his life, but he had never heard this one.
"he"
After hesitating for a moment, the old man slowly asked, "How many people have you killed?"
"I have no idea."
The woman shook her head: "But there should be a lot more."
"Really?"
The old man's eyes remained unchanged, and he was about to say something else, but there was a sudden noise outside the house.
To be precise, it seemed like someone was shouting something loudly on the street outside Jishidiang.
Neither of them spoke for a while, but carefully listened to the voice until it became clearer and clearer.
"Dafeng is not dead!!"
"Fellow villagers!! Dafeng is not dead!!!"
"Master Wei took the Emperor to Jianchang Prefecture!! The Emperor was allowed to restore the Dafeng in Jianchang Prefecture!!!"
"Woo woo woo! Our Dafeng is not dead!!!"
“.”
The excited shouts came from far away and then disappeared from the ears of the two people, leaving only countless equally excited discussions outside the house.
The old man's eyes gradually widened, and it was obvious that he was still very surprised by the news.
After a while, he withdrew his gaze and looked at the woman opposite him again, only to find that the latter had been in tears without him knowing when.
"Girl, you."
The words of comfort on his lips could not be uttered. The old man froze suddenly as if he understood something, and after a long while he asked softly:
"Do you still want to study medicine?"
“.”
"Um."
