Chapter 207: Exempt

The Ruoergai Plateau, the sacred mountain of snow and wind, the source of the Yellow River in Jiuqu, and horses have been inaccessible here. Hong Jun, Li Jinglong, and Yuzhou crossed the entire Qinghai and came to the north of Bashu. At the end of this ladder-like plateau, there were even sporadic villages.
Li Jinglong saw that the horses could not be moved anymore, so he sent them to the village and bought food and drinking water with the villagers. The three were wrapped in thick fur coats and walked along the glacial river to the upper reaches of the Yellow River. The weather was freezing and the water became ice. Hong Jun suggested that with the Phoenix True Elemental Guard, Yuzhou would fly again, and originally did not need to carry the weight. But Li Jinglong insisted on walking on foot to save a little mana, it is necessary.
"Will not be attacked again." Yuzhou said, "What are you doing so carefully?"
"That's hard to say." Li Jinglong was too lazy to argue with Yuzhou and replied casually.
Yuzhou was so bored that he had to follow behind them all the way. According to the villagers, the distant snow and holy mountain was the birthplace of the Yellow River, and in the ancient rumors passed by word by the teachers, this is also the Central Plains. The first dragon vein is known as the dragon of the dragon.
"Zhao Zilong!" Li Jinglong held Hongjun's hand in the snow and looked like a whisper. "Remember where you were born?"
"How is it possible!" Yuzhou tightened his jacket and accelerated his pace, saying, "I didn't remember much before I was fifty!"
Hong Jun turned back and said: "How did you know the prisoner at first?"
Yuzhou thought about it for a moment, and talked about his life experience in the snow. At that time, it was just a carp in the Yellow River. It is strange to say that the ordinary aquarium has lived for decades, and the body will grow up amazingly, but it does not. Just leave a ring after ring on the scales, like an annual ring mark.
Trees and scaled aquariums are the easiest to recognize their age, and they are engraved on the body every year they live. After the carp demon had wits, he wandered around, and although he could not help, he lived freely. But for a long time, for a monster, it is inevitable to think about the meaning of his existence. The carp demon hopes to practice as a human, and then jumps into the dragon gate, maybe one day in the future, it will have a glimpse of heaven.
So it began to hold back hard, and finally held out his hands and feet.
Li Jinglong: "..."
Hong Jun: "I seem to have heard this before."
Li Jinglong said: "You can hold your hands and feet by holding back, so powerful?"
Yuzhou obviously didn't want to talk about the past, after all, his hands and feet were not very good-looking, but Hong Jun asked and could only answer truthfully.
"That was after meeting the monk."
Before waiting to understand how much mana it had, he was caught by the fishing net one day. He still remembers it as a sunny afternoon, and the fisherman's voice rang loudly.
"Two pounds and two halves!"
So the carp demon was sent to the market in Chang'an, where it was hung for sale. It was soon bought back by a restaurant, which was the predecessor of Yuyue Dragon Gate. Soon after, Xuan Zang came to the back kitchen of Yuyue Dragon Gate ...
Li Jinglong said: "Master Xuanzhuang, will you come to the back kitchen of a restaurant?"
"Because he has a young apprentice." Yuzhou explained, "It's here to find someone."
Then, the carp demon saw the monk, and in its impression, the monk was not killing, and naturally called for help. Xuanzang saw the carp mouth uttering people's words, and was very surprised. In the pond. In the morning and evening drums, the sound of the Buddha trumpet, and Xuanzang chanting the scriptures, the carp demon was watching.
Later, Xuanzang moved to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, and the carp demon was very idle for a while ...
"That is to say, you have lived in Chang'an for decades?" Li Jinglong asked.
The three arrived at the Holy Mountain, and the sky gradually darkened. Hong Jun found a cave in the leeward, preparing to stay overnight. Yuzhou glanced at Li Jinglong holding Hongjun's hand and casually said, "I don't want to say any more."
Li Jinglong released Hongjun, motioned him to boil water, and said to Yuzhou: "In these years, you have always been the boss of the Exorcism Division ..."
When Yuzhou heard this, his mood became very complicated, saying: "I know you all look down on me."
Li Jinglong hurriedly waved his hand where Qian gave up, explaining: "Everyone respects you very much."
The carp demon usually has an attitude of seeing through and not talking about many things. After all, after living for so many years, it is impossible for people to understand the world. Why do you come to be a demon, and betrayed Hongjun even more, I am afraid that the exorcism department will rush again It walked, the momentum was weak first, and even now he has cultivated an adult. When facing Li Jinglong, he still has the mood of the fish body that year, and he is unavoidable.
"Do you know?" Yuzhou said suddenly, "I fled back to Chang'an that day, I thought the Exorcist would open the door."
Li Jinglong heard from Mo Rigen and Lu Xu and said, "Everyone is not at home. Is there any way?"
Yuzhou looked at Li Jinglong for a long time. Hongjun felt the atmosphere a little strange, and looked up at Yuzhou.
"The second son, in these years, do you really treat me as a writer?" Yuzhou opened his mouth in silence.
Hong Jun was about to speak, but Li Jinglong raised his hand to stop him.
"To be honest," Li Jinglong replied, "No."
Yuzhou thought Li Jinglong would coax him a few words, but did not expect Li Jinglong to conceal anything at all, so simple and rudely broke the truth.
"Because I betrayed you," Yuzhou said.
Hong Jun: "Zhao Zilong, I said I forgive you!"
Yuzhou suddenly came up and stared at Li Jinglong.
"That's just a trivial matter." Li Jinglong said lightly, "I don't believe you, because you are not a person. You are a demon."
Hong Jun: "..."
"Not only to you." Li Jinglong said, "As long as it is a demon clan, Chaoyun, Qingxiong, Zhongming, Yuzao cloud, ghost king ... We are hostile from the beginning. In addition to Hongjun, I treat you demon clan Every member of cannot fully believe that this is my duty as the commander of the Exorcist Division. "
Hong Jun did not interrupt Li Jinglong. He was very surprised. He would actually hear Li Jinglong say his truth and make his position here and now, which is quite rare. After all, Li Jinglong is a person who rarely expresses his confidence. Even when discussing with his colleagues, when the frontiers come and go, their positions are often only unpredictable. He was even more careful with Hongjun himself, with excessive protection, to avoid exposing him to too much scheming and the city.
At this time, he could vaguely understand why Li Jinglong would mention the past at this moment, and talk to Yuzhou, perhaps in the final analysis, it was still because the last magical instrument was at hand. If this magical instrument belongs to the carp demon, Li Jinglong would have to get it Guarantee, after getting the magic weapon, Yuzhou will do his best to cooperate with everyone.
"You don't need to say that, I will help you." Yuzhou said, "I'm just for Hongjun, nothing else."
"This is what I want to say," Two Comes. "Li Jinglong sat back to Hongjun, separated the two, and said quietly," Hongjun, are you looking for some firewood? "
Hong Jun frowned. Even if he was stupid, he knew that Li Jinglong had something to say to Yuzhou alone. Although he didn't like Li Jinglong, he still got up and walked out of the cave.
"Second." Li Jinglong looked directly at Yuzhou and said, "You like Hongjun, and you like it from the beginning."
Yuzhou was suddenly in a state of chaos, flushed, and said, "I ..."
After Li Jinglong said this, he said lightly: "So you don't like me, and I don't like you either."
Yuzhou transitioned from a panic that was pierced at the beginning to a gradual calm, and after only a short amount of interest, he finally said: "Yes, why are you? Are you also worthy?"
Li Jinglong just smiled and sincerely said: "I'm sorry, Zilong."
Yuzhou: "..."
However, Yuzhou's eyes slowly turned red. After a long time, he said fascinatingly: "That year I was caught by the prison prison ... Let me go to Taihang Mountain ... A bear almost ate me ..."
Li Jinglong did n’t interrupt him, but looked at Yuzhou in silence. Yuzhou suddenly choked up and said intermittently:
It ’s Hongjun who saved my life. He is the child of Peacock King Ming, the son of Phoenix, so bright, so Pretty……"
"... but he never thought of me ... an ordinary monster, screaming and drinking ..."
"He gave me a name ... He said,‘ I believe you, one day, it will become a dragon ’...

"You will live for a long time." Li Jinglong said, "He has only one life, you do not belong to him, he does not belong to you."
Yuzhou stared at Li Jinglong and said, "I know."
Li Jinglong frowned slightly, and Yuzhou sighed as if he was dead, saying, "From the moment I saw you chasing to the foot of Qilian Mountain, I knew that I had no more hope."
Li Jinglong had a mixed feeling in his heart for a while, and said in a deep voice: "So this is why I have to chase my old life."
"Fuck." Yuzhou patted Li Jinglong on the shoulder, turned around and shouted, "Hong Jun!"
Hongjun came with a firewood in his head, looked at Yuzhou and Li Jinglong again, with a hint of reproach in his eyes. Li Jinglong got up, took the firewood, and raised the flame.
The atmosphere was very strange, and no one spoke. Hong Jun glanced at the faces of the two, and finally couldn't help but say, "Don't bully him."
"I didn't." Li Jinglong said innocently.
"He didn't." Yuzhou said to Li Jinglong instead, "Now I feel much more comfortable."
Hong Jun: "???
Li Jinglong smiled, Hong Jun said: "Laughing ?! Why are you the demon?"
Li Jinglong said: "I am willing to change myself for you."
When Hong Jun heard this, he was slightly relieved and raised his eyes to Li Jinglong and said, "Really?"
"Huh." Li Jinglong didn't avoid Hongjun's eyes, but instead smiled in his eyes.
The wind gradually subsided, there was silence in the world, Hong Jun was silent, Li Jinglong and Yuzhou seemed to hold a strange tacit understanding, and no one spoke. Hong Jun couldn't help guessing what they said, but it was also a good idea to think of Li Jinglong every time he opened himself, and his curiosity was too strong.
"Master Xuanzang ..." Hong Jun decided to find something to say, "He is a Buddha."
"Yes." Yuzhou was like a piece of wood, and suddenly became angry, saying, "I still remember the day he became a Buddha."
"Are you with him?" Li Jinglong asked a question.
Yuzhou pondered, "It's only me who is with me."
The atmosphere suddenly became natural and warmed up, and Hongjun felt that Yuzhou might have untied a certain knot during the time he left.
"What did he say?" Hong Jun asked.
Yuzhou shook his head and said, "He said, I was sent from heaven and earth to save all beings."
Hong Jun was shocked in an instant, which was really a high evaluation, and it was still spoken from the mouth of Dian Tan Gong De Buddha!
"You are the one." Yuzhou smiled and said, "Our family Hongjun, it is, um ..." Then he said to himself again: "I was born to help you."
Li Jinglong said: "He had predicted the disaster of Datang?"
Yuzhou thought for a while and shook his head: "That's not there. Remember that it was a dusk. Before he became a Buddha, he gave me something."
"What is it?" Hong Jun hasn't heard of this.
"I don't know." Yuzhou said, "I want to help me practice? I just swallowed it."
Li Jinglong said: "The Buddha gave you something, did you swallow it?"
Yuzhou said, "Yes, is there a problem?"
Li Jinglong and Hong Jun were speechless. Yuzhou raised his leg, lifted his trousers, and exposed his hairy legs. He said, "Later I will practice hard and hold my hands and feet."
Li Jinglong: "..."
Hong Jun's mouth twitched and said: "Oh-that's what it is."
Yuzhou also said: "Later I was released, and I entered the Jinghe, preparing to find a place to practice well. Later, I was found by the prison and found you."
Hong Jun said: "Kun God said, you have to accumulate merits to cultivate adults."
"Enough is enough." Li Jinglong said, "Where are the thousands of people who Zilong rescued outside the Hangu customs?"
Hong Jun thought so too, and later recounted by Lu Xu that the carp demon controlled the Jingwei that day indeed saved many people's lives. Without him, I don't know how many soldiers would die on the battlefield.
"But spiritual practice is not enough." Yuzhou pondered for a moment, and then said, "I have to find a place to practice when I help you defeat Tianmo and Yuan Kun."
Hongjun looked at Yuzhou, and Yuzhou avoided his eyes. Li Jinglong felt that Yuzhou finally figured it out this night.
"Congratulations." Li Jinglong smiled.
Hong Jun said: "Maybe I'll never see you look like a dragon until my life is over."
When Hongjun said this, Yuzhou almost burst into tears, but Hongjun smiled and comforted: "But you have carried me soaring in the world, and the promise has been fulfilled."
At that moment, Yuzhou began to gasp hurriedly. Li Jinglong pretended to be casual, but a heart instantly mentioned his throat. I am afraid Yuzhou couldn't help but say to Zhao Hongjun what he couldn't do to clear the scene.
"Zhao Zilong?" Hong Jun noticed his abnormality.
Yuzhou finally calmed down gradually.
"Yeah." Yuzhou smiled reluctantly and said to himself, "This is the greatest wish of my life."
Li Jinglong finally let out a sigh of relief, and his hands were full of sweat, not because he did n’t believe in Hongjun, but since he knew this fish, Li Jinglong was always worried. Abducted. I was even more afraid that Hong Jun could n’t think of it one day, followed by a carp, hiding in the mountains, and I could n’t find them again ... In fact, from seeing Hong Jun on the first side, this strong sense of insecurity almost never stopped. It is necessary to guard against the fact that although Ming Ming is the nominal adoptive father, he raised Hongjun so big that he was the first to get on. He later felt that Qingxiong was also a little dangerous, but gradually excluded him.
Afterwards, there was another Ashina Qiong, who was the one who hanged him, but fortunately Hong Jun didn't like it. And the most difficult thing is this carp. I knew Hongjun earlier than him and took care of me with all my heart. Hongjun was ignorant and only understood it as a loved one. In case the carp demon turned into a handsome boy, the window paper broke. Will be a very strong competitor.
So Yuzhou ran with Hong Jun, and it was really the moment of Li Jinglong's life that was so thrilling and life and death, he had to chase people down anyway.
This time, the carp demon finally retreated, and Li Jinglong felt more tired than fighting a big battle.
