Chapter 571: Queen: Would it be more scary if you knew I was a man?
Even though more than ten days had passed since the rebellion of the aristocratic families, Su Changan still stumbled when he walked and needed someone to support him.
After all, his injuries were too severe. Not just external injuries, but also damage to the meridians throughout the body. It's just that his physique is too strong, so he can walk, while others would have to lie in bed.
Compared to Su Changan.
Luo Changfeng's injuries were not just problems with his meridians. Because of the impact on the Baihui acupoint, all the qi orifices were forcibly blasted open. The reason why Luo Changfeng was still alive was also because Shentu Kuyue used all of his energy to protect Luo Changfeng's heart meridian.
Moreover, Luo Changfeng is not a martial artist and does not have the physique of Yu Kuangxian, so he has only woken up now.
With the help of Xia Fengxiang, Su Changan and Xia Fengxiang came to where Luo Changfeng's carriage was.
On the way back, we walked slowly because we were not in a hurry. After all, many people were injured, and the team was large, not a secret visit, so there was no bumpy ride even in the carriage.
The four looked into each other's eyes.
Luo Changfeng sat in the carriage and looked at Su Changan who was also weak, and laughed, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty. I am not feeling well, so I cannot perform the salute."
After Xia Fengxiang helped Su Changan get on the carriage, he looked at Luo Changfeng and said, "I never saw you perform formalities when things were going well."
After saying this, Xia Fengxiang continued, "Thank you, Senior Luo, for this matter."
Luo Changfeng looked pale and a little frightened, but he still smiled and was about to say something. However, before he opened his mouth, he coughed a few times.
Xia Fengxiang frowned and turned to look at the doctors in the Shen Ce Mansion.
But before the doctors could speak, Luo Changfeng said, "It's good enough to be alive. Your Majesty, don't blame them. I know the condition of my body very well."
Xia Fengxiang nodded and said nothing more. He just looked at Su Changan who was sitting there. After saying "you guys chat", he lowered the curtain and called the doctors to the other side to ask questions.
Luo Changfeng knew that His Majesty was still going to ask the doctor, but he didn't say anything. He was very happy to be cared for by the current empress, but the price was too high.
"Ahem~~" After coughing a few more times, Luo Changfeng took a deep breath, then looked at Su Changan and said with a smile: "In just these few days, your Majesty has more white hair than me, an old man."
Su Changan said sternly: "What white hair? I am called a silver-haired handsome man."
Luo Changfeng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "You are obviously a woman, but you insist on saying you are a man. It turns out that you monsters all have some problems."
Su Changan looked at Luo Changfeng with a headache. What was going on?
However, Luo Changfeng did not say anything more on this issue. Instead, he looked at Su Changan and laughed for no reason: "The old man has no aura or anything like that now, but it seems that the queen now has some of the demeanor of the swordsman senior back then."
Hearing this, Su Changan brought the paper from Shuyalou to Luo Changfeng, pointed at the name on the list, then pointed at his own name, and then said seriously: "I can't read, can you show me what's written here?"
Luo Changfeng glanced at the words on the paper, but smiled and shook his head.
When he just woke up, the first thing Luo Changfeng asked was how the Queen was doing.
Yu Kuangjian has been taking care of Luo Changfeng these days.
Although she doesn't talk much and looks cold, she is very affectionate. Luo Changfeng saved her life and helped her retain her ninth-rank strength. She has always respected and appreciated Luo Changfeng in her heart.
So Yu Kuangjian naturally said that the queen was fine, and also told Luo Changfeng that the queen was now among the top ten people in the world.
Lian Wei on the side also said that the queen might come to show off in front of you later.
As expected.
While Luo Changfeng was smiling, he looked at the familiar names on the list. Many of them were gone, and now half of them were replaced by newcomers.
Especially this time even Huang Chao was missing.
I am even more useless like this.
While laughing, he sighed in his heart and said, "My Lady, what a beautiful scene it is when you look at the martial arts scenery now."
Su Changan looked at Luo Changfeng in surprise: "I thought you were going to flatter me or something. It's a pity that I can't read for the time being."
Luo Changfeng smiled and said, "Then should I make up for it now?"
Su Changan looked at Luo Changfeng with disdain. Does it still have the same flavor now?
Luo Changfeng looked down at the latest top ten and the updated list of candidates, and murmured, "The world changes, many people leave, many people come, your Highness is in her early twenties and has become one of the top ten. Even if I want to flatter her, there is nothing to flatter. It's too high, and I, an old man, can't reach it."
Su Changan was about to speak, but he immediately realized that the old man was just trying to flatter him.
But he didn't say anything, just smiled and answered Luo Changfeng's previous question: "I used to have a narrow vision, thinking that Grandma, Aunt Yan and the others should have reached the pinnacle of martial arts, but after the battle with Huang Chao, I found that it was not the case. The road of martial arts, like learning, has no pinnacle."
Luo Changfeng immediately said seriously: "You are joking, Madam. You are already strong enough to kill Huang Chao in your early twenties. You will be the top in the future. Maybe it will be tomorrow. It's very simple."
Looking at Luo Changfeng's expression, which looked like he would be struck by lightning if he told even a single lie, Su Changan began to wonder whether his decision to listen to Luo Changfeng's flattery was a mistake.
Luo Changfeng smiled and said, "Your Majesty may think that the second half of the sentence is flattering, but the first half is indeed true. Although the old man Huang Chao was seriously injured by my chopping off one of his arms, the old man's title of the leader of horizontal training is not for nothing, and the physique of horizontal training is not comparable to that of other people who specialize in one discipline. With his strength, Ku Yue, that girl, would probably draw with him even if she tried her best. Maybe she could kill him by luck, but Ku Yue also tried her best, so Your Majesty was able to kill him. I know best how strong he is. Your Majesty is right to be humble in some matters, but you cannot be humble in some matters, especially in the matter of martial arts. If you are too humble, others will get angry when they see you!"
Silence.
Su Changan changed his posture to make himself comfortable, and then said: "Okay, since Master has said so, I will reluctantly admit that I am very strong."
Luo Changfeng smiled and looked at Su Changan. He felt that this girl's temper was so likable.
And this sentence, Master.
Luo Changfeng felt quite comfortable after listening to this.
Su Changan picked up a tuft of his hair and looked at Luo Changfeng: "Do you think my hair can be changed back? I lied to my wife and said it can be changed back, but I'm not sure."
Luo Changfeng looked up at Su Changan's hair, shook his head and said, "Go back and let that person and Yan Yunxiao take a look. I can't recognize the old man now."
The voice sounded a little lonely, but also full of relief.
Su Changan could hear it, but didn't say much.
Luo Changfeng looked at the paper in front of him and wanted to reach out to take it, but he raised his hand tremblingly and seemed a little struggling.
Seeing this, Su Changan reached out and helped bring it to the old man.
It is really sad that Luo Changfeng, the "Three Swords" who was once famous in the martial arts world, now has such severe hand tremors.
However, Luo Changfeng himself laughed and looked at his hands. He did not look embarrassed at all. Instead, he looked relieved and indifferent.
Then Luo Changfeng said: "Martial arts are the most wonderful. Among the ten people in the world, this girl named Liu Xu'er is blind. She has strong Qi and is good at using the pipa. Under the music, she can disturb people's hearts and kill people invisibly. But before I met her, she had a pair of very beautiful eyes. But for the sake of Su Qichi, the most handsome man in the world in the past, she practiced martial arts to the current level and became blind. I said this to tell you, Madam, that some martial arts have to pay a price. I saw that Qianhong has now entered the ranks of the eighth rank, but she is blind in one eye. This is the price they have to pay for their martial arts. Martial arts are mysterious and many of the skills are strange."
"Especially Yiweiting, it is extremely difficult to practice, and it is not called the world's number one martial art for nothing. Perhaps, your Majesty, you have practiced Yiweiting to this point, and your hair will turn gray like this. But this is just my guess. Now my martial arts are completely useless. I can't feel anything, and I can't perceive anything. So it may be that your Majesty has been like this for a short time after overcoming the second inner demon. After all, your Majesty has improved to this level of strength in a short period of time. It is really unheard of. Maybe after some time, it will come back on its own."
Luo Changfeng was telling the truth, and he did not hide anything. He is just an ordinary old man now, and being able to say these things is based on his experience.
Luo Changfeng smiled and said, "But I think that the Madam looks better like this, but she is not inferior either. She looks pretty good."
Su Changan was in a good mood, especially when he was concerned about his gray hair. When he heard this, he chuckled and said, "I think I look better too."
Luo Changfeng laughed, but then he started coughing again. After a while, Luo Changfeng took a deep breath and said, "Now, Madam, if you were to go out on your own, I think your reputation would definitely surpass that senior's. The Silver-haired Sword Immortal, it's so beautiful just to think about it."
Su Changan nodded and did not deny it because he thought so too.
Just looking at Luo Changfeng's pale face, Su Changan said: "Maomao is now with Aunt Yan's husband. I heard that he is very proficient in martial arts. This time he will return to Beijing with Maomao and the others. Let him see you then."
Luo Changfeng smiled and shook his head: "Madam, didn't you notice that I am so relaxed now?"
After saying that, Luo Changfeng looked at the blue sky outside: "Sometimes, you cherish it like a treasure and want more. When it is completely gone, you find that it is just like that, and it is more relaxed. Before Yan Yunxiao, I was chasing after others, thinking of defeating them. Later, Yan Yunxiao came, and this pursuit lasted for a lifetime. I gave up everything. Now that I have let it go, I don’t think about taking it back. Don’t be afraid of you laughing at me, my queen. In my life, I was curious about everything when I was a child, and I claimed to know everything when I was young. I wanted everything when I was middle-aged. Now that I am old, I know what it means to know and what it means to want."
At this point, Luo Changfeng looked at the list on his body: "These people on it look powerful, but they are all trapped by obsessions and have changed. Huang Chao was devoted to the country in the past. In the chaotic times, many thieves died under his fists. But after the world was peaceful, he lost his previous intention and became more obsessed with martial arts. Perhaps it was to surpass that predecessor. Now he has betrayed his original intention and wants to kill a good emperor. Alas, he has been driven crazy by martial arts."
"But I'm not qualified to say anything. After all, I'm crazy too. For the sake of martial arts, I abandoned the girl I loved the most, gave up many unnecessary things, and only wanted to defeat Yan Yunxiao. Of course, I felt that it was wrong for me to do this, but when I thought about it, what else could I do if I didn't continue on this path? I was confused and conflicted. What could I do? Isn't life all about making mistakes and being contradictory? People, after all, the longer they live, the more they pursue, so it's easier to forget what they wanted in the first place. So, your majesty, don't worry about me. Being alive is already beyond my expectations. Since I went to find Yan Yunxiao, I didn't think I could survive."
At this point, Luo Changfeng smiled and looked at Su Changan: "Your Majesty, do you know why that senior was admired by so many people in our time, and why so many people still miss him now?"
Su Changan said: "Freedom?"
Luo Changfeng nodded: "Almost the same, because that person can do whatever he wants in the martial arts world. Strength is of course the basis, but within the scope of strength, others cannot do what he does. Huang Chao was trapped by his determination to eliminate the evil people in the country, and I was trapped because of my poor talent. The Liu Xuer I just mentioned was trapped by love, and that Su Qichi, although I am not familiar with him, was also trapped by something."
"Jianghu. Jianghu, a place where people should be free and happy. Only that senior in the world has done it completely. But others can't do that? If you are weak, you can be free and easy in your own village or deep in the mountains. But no one does that, after all, they are trapped by the rules and regulations in their hearts. So everyone yearns for that sword immortal, but in a real sense, they imagine themselves to be that sword immortal. That's why they admire him."
At this point, Luo Changfeng smiled bitterly: "Now, even if I am in this carriage, my hands are shaking when I raise them, but to be honest, my heart is much more open."
Su Changan looked at Luo Changfeng without saying anything. This is the truth: if you let go of something, you will be free.
Instead, Luo Changfeng raised his eyes and looked at Su Changan: "Speaking of which, old man, I have something to ask."
Hearing this, Su Changan shook his head: "I don't agree."
Luo Changfeng smiled bitterly: "I haven't said it yet, why don't you agree?"
Su Changan's expression became serious: "What are you trying to say? Your mission is over. You are just an ordinary old man waiting to die. There is no point in staying here any longer, so I want to go back."
Luo Changfeng smiled, and did not deny that Su Changan had guessed it, so he said: "I appreciate your kindness, but I am really useless now, so I just want to go back to the place where I have lived in seclusion for these years and wait for death."
Su Changan frowned: "According to what you mean, it is wrong for a disciple to provide for his master in his old age?"
Luo Changfeng was a little surprised that Su Changan would say this, and was stunned for a moment.
Su Changan continued, "You gave up everything except martial arts. Now that you have lost your martial arts, you think you have nothing left, you are helpless and don't need to care about anything. Just find a beautiful place to wait for death. Then what do I mean by your disciple? Or you don't even intend to accept me as your disciple."
The old man looked at Su Changan and laughed: "How can I not recognize him? I just don't deserve him."
Su Changan looked at Luo Changfeng angrily: "There is no truth in the world that says a master who dies for his apprentice is not worthy of being a teacher. There is no truth in the world that says a disciple can ignore his master. If there is such a truth, then I say there is no such thing."
"I don't care about you in the past. Now you are my master, your business is my business, I can't just leave you alone and let you fend for yourself, I, Su Changan, can't do that. So this matter is not negotiable, I am the queen, and I won't tell you this truth. If you understand the principle of letting go of a thought, you will be free in all aspects. Then the way to go in the future is to live happily and well. The capital is so big, there are many places to play, and the palace is so big, there are many places for you to live. Although your apprentice has no money, your apprentice's wife has plenty of money, so there is no problem in supporting you."
"Even if I'm gone, my wife is still here. Even if my wife is gone, all my brothers and sisters are still here. You, Luo Changfeng, are my master and my relative, so they all have to recognize you and support you. You can do whatever you want, just because you are my master! Wherever I am is your home, you can live there with peace of mind."
There are many things that cannot be said because they would be too corny.
But there are some things that must be said, only then will the other person know.
The old man listened to Su Changan's words.
Having been lonely for a long time, he was most afraid of someone saying such things.
He is alone all his life with nothing, and the people closest to him are abandoned. No one around him will say those kind and heartwarming words to him.
So at that moment, looking at Su Changan, the old man smiled, then thought of what he had done to the woman he loved, and said self-deprecatingly: "How could I have done this?"
Su Changan said, "If people in the world think that you, Luo Changfeng, are not worthy of being my master, but I, Su Changan, think that you are my master, then you are. So don't say that you are not worthy in the future. This is an order from me, the queen. And let's put aside the martial arts. When Aunt Yan and her husband come to the capital, I will still show you to avoid any sequelae."
Luo Changfeng smiled bitterly and sighed. Having said that, it would be hypocritical to refuse again. But Luo Changfeng looked at Su Changan and thought, it turns out that this is the feeling of someone caring about you. It has been so many years and he almost forgot it.
Su Changan went on to say, "I know your sword is very important to you, so I took the initiative to send my Zizaixian to Liuyue Manor. Once it's repaired, it will be sent to the capital."
Hearing this, Luo Changfeng nodded, but looked at Su Changan without saying anything for a long time. All this was too strange.
In a dark room, a single light can bring light to the room. This is probably the reason why.
After a long while, Luo Changfeng said, "If I say thank you now, will I be lectured again?"
Su Changan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Yes, because there is no need for us to be so pretentious."
Luo Changfeng laughed, then looked out the car window and said thank you in his heart.
But then, Luo Changfeng turned around and looked at Su Changan: "Then I won't be polite in the future. From now on, I will tell everyone that I am your master, Madam."
Su Changan immediately said, "When you go to visit prostitutes or read those pornographic books, don't tell them! You can't afford to embarrass that person. But you can tell them when you do good things."
Luo Changfeng laughed and looked at Su Changan, sighing again, no wonder this girl is so approachable. He has done so many wrong things in his life, but the only thing he did wrong was seeing this girl in the crowd. That's right!
Su Changan dragged his sick body to come and see Luo Changfeng. Firstly, he wanted to make sure the old man was fine, and secondly, he wanted to tell Luo Changfeng to follow him and not to think about leaving by himself.
After he finished speaking, Su Changan planned to leave. After all, the two patients needed a good rest.
But just as he was about to leave, Su Changan thought of something and asked, "Old man, now everyone in the world sees me in this group of ten people, and the Sword Immortal who was so popular before is still me, and I am also the Color Armor, the first on the Poetry List, and the first on the Rouge List. How many people do you think were frightened by me?"
Luo Changfeng smiled and said: "Everyone in the world will be shocked."
That's true.
But then Luo Changfeng glanced at the paper and said, "Especially these old guys besides Yan Yunxiao."
There was another thing Luo Changfeng didn't say. If you weren't the Queen, I'm afraid someone would have set out to look for you.
after all
The people below didn't care. They were shocked when they were frightened, but that was all.
However, these old guys will be restless, especially those who are utilitarian. After all, a monster that overthrows the strong has emerged. How can they sit still?
Especially since this monster is unprecedented and unparalleled in the Three Ends.
To reach this position among the top ten doesn’t mean you have made it, it requires real strength.
Su Changan grinned, very good, just thinking about the expressions of people all over the world when they saw it, his vanity exploded and he felt very satisfied!
But then, after Su Changan thought about it, he looked at Luo Changfeng seriously and said, "Do you think it would be more frightening if they knew I was a man?"
Luo Changfeng looked at Su Changan, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. Why did he insist on saying that he was a man?
Su Changan thought for a while and added, "And I think I might be the grandson of Su Qichi. But I don't know, it's just my guess."
After saying that, Su Changan said nothing more. He endured the pain, got off the carriage with a smile, and left it before leaving. He had to take good care of his injuries and live well, as life had just begun.
When Luo Changfeng heard this, he was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.
I just looked through the window at Su Changan who was left with the help of Xia Fengxiang, and wondered for a moment, he kept saying that he was a man, could it be true? And he also said that he was Su Qichi's grandson.
The more I think
Luo Changfeng felt that if this was true, it would be too scary, especially if it was really Su Qichi's grandson, then those old ladies like Liu Xuer would be unable to sit still.
Thinking of this, looking at Su Changan's back, Luo Changfeng suddenly smiled.
Regardless of whether they are real or not, they are all my, Luo Changfeng’s disciples.
Think of this sentence
Luo Changfeng smiled particularly brightly, thinking of what Su Changan had just said.
Hey, I, Luo Changfeng, have relatives now.
Thinking of this, Luo Changfeng lay down with some effort and slowly closed his eyes.
There are two pains in life: not getting what you want, and losing what you have. Both are painful and full of regrets. I'm fine now, old man. I'm fine.
