Chapter 2 I can't pretend I didn't hear this!
The twelfth year of the Saint Emperor Chaotian in the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, after Taizu, Taizong, Ganxing, and three generations of emperors worked hard to govern, and to the current Tiansheng, the Great Zhou Dynasty finally came to its most prosperous period, but even such a prosperous era with flowers and brocade and fire cooking oil still has hidden dangers.
Aristocratic sect.
Some of the former are left over from the previous dynasty, and some are upstarts today, but in any case, their existence does involve a large part of the energy of the court. However, under the suppression of four generations of emperors, by the 12th year of Tiansheng, the threat of the aristocratic families to the imperial power had been basically suppressed.
However, the sects are different.
He occupied land but refused taxes, and had troops but was respectful. There were countless masters of the sect, with unstable minds and unscrupulous eyes. Among them, there were even brave people who dared to break into the palace at night and steal jade and incense. This was undoubtedly intolerable for an ambitious emperor.
Therefore, after basically resolving the threat from the aristocratic families, the Great Zhou Dynasty took action against the sect.
Since you have to do something, you can't make small fuss.
Even in order to kill the chicken to warn the monkey, we must find a force with a high enough status, strong enough strength and great reputation to solve the problem.
The Heavenly Saint Emperor focused his attention on the Antian Temple.
There are three reasons.
First of all, the Nitian Temple was created by Lu Xingzhou, the founding martial saint Lu Xingzhou who helped Emperor Taizu conquer the world. Lu Xingzhou was once the number one person in the world in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so the fame, status and strength of the Nitian Temple meet the requirements. Secondly, although Nitian Temple is not weak, it does not have that kind of true peak combat power. At least now, the only martial saint of Nitian Temple is the founding martial saint Lu Xingzhou who is said to be over 100 years old and God knows whether he can still fight. Finally, Fuyun Mountain where Nitian Temple is located is very close to the capital of the Great Zhou, which is very convenient to do.
The right time, place and people are in harmony.
How can I not take action?
As for the gold medal given by Emperor Taizu... it was just a gold medal after all. Moreover, Emperor Taizu gave Fuyun Mountain to Lu Xingzhou, but he spent a lot of money to build a capital near Fuyun Mountain. Maybe he had expected this day in a hundred years.
So in the thirteenth year of Emperor Tiansheng.
The Great Zhou Shenji Mansion came out in full swing, led by the Shenji Hou Li Jinghan, and the army besieged Fuyun Mountain. It took three days and three nights to siege the Heavenly Views in Fuyun Mountain, from the servants to the heads, and the founding martial saint Lu Xingzhou was even killed by Li Jinghan's three punches.
When Pei Xunzhen looked at the pillar of the Unsighted View, the founding martial saint who once dominated the world a hundred years ago, fought with Li Jinghan with his old body. Even though he was beaten to vomit blood, he still shouted that everyone would run away quickly, he almost bit his teeth to pieces.
"Why...why...why!!!"
"I have never opposed your royal family for a hundred years. I just want to be alone, why! Why do you do this! Why is this!"
Pei Xunzhen never felt so regretful for that moment.
He regretted why he had not practiced well, why he had been obsessed with poetry and essays, and why he had not noticed the changes in the Great Zhou Dynasty for so long.
Why?
Why?
Why!
"Why? No Why!"
Kneeling on the ground, Pei Xunzhen's face turned bright red, and standing in front of him was Li Jinghan, the Divine Jihou who had just killed Lu Xingzhou with his own hands.
Pei Xun really recognized him.
Because Pei Xunzhen was the top scorer in the imperial examination in the eighth year of Tiansheng, and Li Jinghan was the second place. At that time, Pei Xunzhen and Li Jinghan were the best friends, but they did not expect that in just five years, this former friend would stand in front of him with such a cold face.
"Jinghan..." Pei Xunzhen spoke with the last glimmer of hope.
However, reality is not warm.
"Shut up."
Bang! The severe pain on her cheek woke Pei Xunzhen up, and the voice of her friend came from the top of her head, but it was as cold as a blade:
"According to the oral order of Your Majesty, I will violate the heavens and see the following and the following are the most serious crimes and will be punished by the whole family to serve as a warning to others."
"Although I have a personal relationship with you, since you are the head of the Heavenly View, there is no personal relationship. With Your Majesty's imperial edict here, I can only destroy my relatives for justice."
"you....!!!"
Pei Xunzhen suddenly looked up. Although Li Jinghan seemed to be heartbroken, Pei Xunzhen was born with a keen sense of spiritual consciousness. How could he not hear the murderous intent hidden under the cold sound?
But Pei Xunzhen has no time to think about it anymore.
Li Jinghan had no intention of explaining his grief and anger, but just waved his hand and cut off Pei Xunzhen's head. In a trance, Pei Xunzhen felt that his vision was like a dizzy sky. Finally, what caught his eyes was a headless body, followed by endless darkness.
“………….”
Then, he opened his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, Pei Xunzhen found that he was standing in his beloved Taoyuan, which was a peachyuan he had specially opened up in Fuyun Mountain. It was originally a place to satisfy his poems and cultivate his sentiments, but after the Great Zhou Dynasty marched into Fuyun Mountain, it was destroyed.
But what is going on now?
"Sect Master?" A familiar voice suddenly sounded, but it shocked Pei Xunzhen. He turned around suddenly and saw an old man in a civilian clothes looking at him.
"...... Elder Xing?"
"What's wrong with the sect leader?" The old man blinked: "Why are you still in a daze? Didn't I say that the Supreme Elder wants to see you? Go out to greet you quickly."
"The Supreme Elder..."
Pei Xunzhen lowered her head and murmured in a low voice, but her heart was filled with huge waves.
Supreme Elder?
He is not dead yet!
How is it possible! I am, I am...
"Elder Xing! How many years is this year for Emperor Tiansheng?!"
"Ah?" Elder Xing was stunned, looked at Pei Xunzhen's suddenly red eyes, and subconsciously said: "Twelve Years of Heavenly Holy Emperor..."
The twelfth year of Emperor Tiansheng! The imperial court encircled Fuyun Mountain in the thirteenth year of Emperor Tiansheng!
It's a year ago now!?
After a brief shock, Pei Xunzhen was incredibly ecstatic! It was like a gambler who lost everything and was suddenly returned to all the gambling books.
I still have hope! I still have hope! I still have hope!
At this moment, Pei Xunzhen made up his mind that he would never allow the same thing to happen again. Although he didn't know why he suddenly returned to a year ago, since God gave him a chance, even if he fought for this life, he would have to change his future in a year!
"Sect Master? Sect Master!" Seeing that Pei Xunzhen's eyes were dull and he kept silent, Elder Xing urged again: "The Supreme Elder is outside now..."
Pei Xunzhen woke up at this moment: "Outside!? Ah! Sorry Elder Xing, I'll go to welcome the Supreme Elder..."
"No."
Before he finished speaking, at the entrance of Taoyuan, an old man wearing a shabby cloth dressed in a gray hair but with a straight back, and the tiger-stepped in.
When she saw the old man, Elder Xing bowed with great respect and said, "I have seen the Supreme Elder!"
“No need to be polite.”
Lu Xingzhou glanced at Elder Xing, then his eyes turned and fell on Pei Xunzhen. This contemporary leader of the Heaven-Defying View fell into his eyes at this time. It was like an atomic bomb explosion. The light that caught his eyes was dazzling and dazzling to an incalculable level.
However, as he concentrated his energy, the light attached to Pei Xunzhen's body in his vision changed again.
In the light, dense handwriting gradually appeared.
【Pei Xunzhen(???)】
[Born in a small village at the foot of Fuyun Mountain in the Great Zhou Dynasty, she was born with intelligence and liked to study. She joined the View of the Heavens when she was young and showed her excellent talent for practicing martial arts. She practiced to the Huiguang Realm in less than fifteen years. At the age of eighteen, she reached the peak of the Blood and Qi Realm. Then she concealed her identity and participated in the Great Zhou imperial examination and won the title of top scholar. Later, she abandoned martial arts and practiced literature and became addicted to poetry and songs. Even so, she still practiced to the Foundation Establishment Realm at the age of twenty-five and became a master. In the thirteenth year of Emperor Tiansheng, the Great Zhou Dynasty surrounded and suppressed Fuyun Mountain. The View of the Heavens was killed by the Heavens. She watched with her own eyes the Supreme Elder Lu Xingzhou was beaten to death by his former friend Li Jinghan, but her mood collapsed, but she suddenly returned. Everything in the past was like a dream bubble, and in a blink of an eye it went back a year ago.]
This is... the life of the character?
No.
Lu Xingzhou immediately glanced at Elder Xing next to him again. He could still see the light, but the light did not reveal the same words as Pei Xunzhen.
What's going on?
Immediately afterwards, Lu Xingzhou turned his head, but found that Pei Xunzhen in front of him looked at him with a sad face. He suddenly moved forward, took two steps, and walked directly to him. Then he held his big hand with a loud voice and tears, and said excitedly:
"Master! You, it's great that you are still alive!"
Land hiking: "......"
Good guy.
