Chapter forty-one, the right match
Whether a warrior or a sorcerer, once he reaches the innate realm, he can produce some wonderful intuition. Whether it is the sixth sense or the "innate spiritual awareness", this intuition has no reason and no trace to be found, but once it is triggered, it is often right.
As your cultivation becomes deeper, there are more and more opportunities for this intuition to trigger it. Therefore, those with advanced cultivation are often difficult to be plotted against. Unless you have other methods that can block the other party's intuition, they will definitely have some inspiration in advance.
If you have some sense, you can find ways to change your destiny.
The simplest thing is that if you feel that something is in danger in a certain direction, then you leave directly, never get involved in this life, and never pass by this life, then this premonition will naturally not come true and your destiny will naturally change.
But... if you have some sense in advance, you may not be able to escape. There are too many accidents in the world, and no one can tell what will happen.
Moreover, many strong people will not escape after they have premonitions of danger, but choose to be prepared to fight back - the path to the strong is made, not escape. A escape expert will not be able to become a real strong man even if his cultivation is high.
Just like before, on the banks of Liuhua River in Yunzhou, Bi Lingkong knew that dozens of demon gods were going to join forces to deal with him, but did not escape, but went to fight. In the end, she defeated the demon gods in a panic and fled, and even died under her hands - this is the demeanor of the strong.
Similarly, Di Cangqiong knew that Bi Lingkong was going to plot against him, so he could have curled up and used the Jiuzhou Formation to gather all the masters loyal to the court from all directions to the gods to protect him. If he did that, Bi Lingkong would have great skills and would not do anything to him.
But he wanted to take the opportunity to fight back and kill Bi Lingkong. As a result, after a fierce battle, Bi Lingkong finally got better and took his life.
Such examples abound, not surprisingly.
Pan Long believed that Gu Wen would have a premonition that the Mid-Autumn Festival battle would probably be dead but not alive. But this Mohist senior didn't care, he just came to die in battle.
This is all about sensing one's own situation and seldom happens when it comes to other people's affairs.
Pan Long has been in the world for several years, and can count it with one hand when he senses other people's situations.
Just now, he saw Bai Yingxuan sighing in a low voice, and suddenly he felt that this person might not have lived long. This sense of feeling was blurred at first, but then it became very clear, and then disappeared in an instant.
But in this clear moment, he vaguely saw Bai Yingxuan lying on the bed in a wedding dress, smiling on his face, but no longer having any vitality.
(Is this the way she will die in the future? Poisoned or suicide? Her outfit... Could it be that her death has something to do with Cang Yuan?)
Pan Long frowned and thought carefully in his heart.
To be honest, he didn't want to pay attention to Bai Yingxuan's life and death. This woman seemed to be a good person, but obviously had many secrets. There is a proverb in the world that says "secrets are the biggest poison." People like this who are not very strong but have many secrets are not surprising not only when they die, but even if you want to help her, they may implicate themselves in turn.
Pan Long has a chivalrous heart, and he is willing to fight to help those kind people, but he is unwilling to fight for a person who hides many secrets!
However, if this matter involves Cangyuan, Pan Long can't help but take care of it!
Cangyuan may not be considered a good person, but Cangyuan strives to promote reforms and is beneficial to the common people. When this person thinks about problems, he often considers it from the perspective of the people.
This is enough, it is worth Pan Long taking the risk to help him!
As for whether it can help? Can it change your destiny? Pan Long is not sure.
In short, just work hard. Even if you can’t do it, as long as you work hard, you will have a clear conscience.
There is no truth in the world that you can succeed by working hard? But if you don’t work hard, you can’t explain yourself…
Pan Long thought about it carefully and decided to pay more attention to Cangyuan in the future. If Cangyuan really encounters trouble, if the situation is right, please help.
If the situation is not right... there is nothing to do.
After all, if he was a rebel, he would be ridiculed if he died to protect the loyal ministers of Daxia...
That night, he found Cang Yuan, mentioned Bai Yingxuan, and also mentioned his premonition.
When he just heard that "I happened to see you and Dr. Bai meet on the street", Cang Yuan couldn't help but smile awkwardly, with some intention of talking about him. But Pan Long said his premonition seriously, and Cang Yuan's smile completely restrained and his face became serious.
"I absolutely believe Brother Pan's spiritual sense!" He first affirmed Pan Long's words, and then said, "It's just... even if you know something in advance, it's very difficult to break the deadlock!"
"I think you can marry her now," Pan Long said. "In my premonition, she died in a wedding dress, which probably means that you did not get married in the end. If you become a married woman, it will be considered a change of fate."
Cang Yuan nodded: "The first thing I thought of is this method. The future is a very vague thing. A little change in the present may make the future completely different. Perhaps this little change can completely reverse things."
But he then sighed again and said, "But, it's really not that easy for me to marry! I'm going to tell you, my elders in my family are a bit old-fashioned, and..."
He shook his head, with a look of helplessness on his face: "I know that you have met Yingxuan in Guangling and know her origin. Although she has been in the Huafang for many years and has not really sold her body with the help of Qimen magic, she has a bad reputation after all. My elders will definitely not allow me to marry her into the house!"
"What are you going to do before?" Pan Long asked with a frown.
"My previous plan was to wait for the reform to succeed and seek a position of exile. Even if I set up my own business, even if my elders don't like it, I will not be able to really stop me from marrying a wife and having children." Cang Yuan said, "But the plan cannot keep up with the changes. Now this plan will definitely not be used!"
Pan Long nodded. According to Cang Yuan's plan, he wanted to marry Bai Yingxuan, at least more than ten years later.
Originally, this little time was nothing. Both of them were innate masters and were not old. With Cang Yuan's status, it was not difficult to obtain some longevity medicines. Not to mention that he was of extraordinary qualifications, it would be natural to practice hard after the reform and break through to the realm of real people. Bai Yingxuan is a sorcerer, and there are many special methods to prolong life...
The two of them could have had a husband-and-wife relationship of at least two hundred years or even longer, but now they have been waiting for more than ten years, which is not unacceptable.
But now, in order to change his destiny, Cangyuan needs to marry Bai Yingxuan as soon as possible - this is very troublesome.
The marriage customs of the Daxia Dynasty were roughly the same as "parents' orders and matchmakers' words". Of course, there are many children in the world who fall in love freely, but the higher the family, the less free they are.
When they get married, they focus on being a good match. They pursue the consolidation of their relationship with their partners through marriage, and even forming loyal and reliable allies to ensure that everyone advances and retreats together to safeguard each other's interests.
This kind of marriage is a clear political marriage. It may not be unhappy, but it is definitely not in line with the romantic yearning of young people.
But if you don’t meet, you won’t meet. What else do you want to do?
Among the 100 people like Cang Yuan, at least ninety-nine were political marriages. Even if there were any feelings, they were only cultivated later.
After all, humans are social animals. They have to enjoy the benefits of high-end families and are unwilling to bear the needs of their families. How can such a good thing be done?
It’s not easy for Cang Yuan to be that “exception”!
"And I dare not let the elders know about this." Cang Yuan sighed and said, "I'm not afraid of you laughing at me when I say it. Every time I see Yingxuan, I have to put on makeup. In fact, it's not just for anything else, but for preventing the news from spreading."
"How do you say this?"
"My elders don't mind my dating with Yingxuan. Even if they have a man and a half daughter with her, they won't care. But if this matter is so popular, it's different...they...they..."
Cang Yuan shook his head, sighed, and said nothing more.
But Pan Long already understood what he meant.
In the eyes of the elders of the Cang family, if Cang Yuan wants to play with a woman like Bai Yingxuan, then he will play with it. It doesn’t matter. But if he wants to marry this woman, even if there are only some rumors and rumors, they will not tolerate it.
If that happens, they will definitely kill Bai Yingxuan directly!
After all, Bai Yingxuan is just an innate realm sorcerer with no backing. For a family like the Cang family, if they kill them, they will be killed.
So, if Cang Yuan really told his elders that he wanted to marry Bai Yingxuan, he was afraid that when he returned from Shendu to Nanxia City, he would have only time to collect Bai Yingxuan's corpse...
Pan Long could not imagine this problem.
Cang Yuan himself has no such face, and Pan Long has no such face.
Teacher Bi Lingkong must have such face, but...hehe, hehehehe.
In addition, the two immortals, Lie Yuko and Lan Lingkuang, should have such face, but can Pan Long ask them to help with Cang Yuan’s affairs?
Their willingness to help Pan Long is because of the teacher's affection, and love is not used like this!
After thinking about it, Pan Long said: "It seems that I can only ask the second prince for help in this matter."
Cang Yuan nodded, "I think so too. Maybe it's only Brother Luo Nan who can help me now..."
He smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Luo Nan has always been obsessed with martial arts. Apart from martial arts, only major events in the world can distract him. He asked him for help in things like men and women... I don't know if he is willing or not..."
"You have such a good relationship with him. It may be a bit exaggerating to bother with your hands, but why wouldn't he help me with this?" Pan Long asked in surprise.
Although he felt that Di Luonan might not be as good to Cang Yuan as Cang Yuan, the two of them were friends after all, so wouldn’t they just help?
Cang Yuan sighed: "Brother Luo Nan always believes that men and women want to get married and have offspring, which is a huge waste of life. He has no interest in the relationship between men and women. He has said more than once that if he can cultivate a long life in this life, what kind of woman should he need? If he cannot cultivate a long life, then hard work is not enough, what kind of woman should he need!"
"I asked him for help in the woman's affairs, and he would be furious and said that I had lost my ambition for the sake of the woman..."
"Everyone has ambition, why bother to force it?"
"Do you think he is a 'why force' person?" Cang Yuan asked back.
Pan Longran mutely. Indeed, Di Luonan, whom he remembered, seemed not so easy to talk to.
But no matter what, the solution Cang Yuan could think of for the time being was to ask Di Luonan for help.
As for whether Emperor Luonan is willing to help? And whether the second prince can help Cang Yuan convince his elders? That is really unknown.
After some negotiations, Pan Long said goodbye and left.
He thought for a long time, and finally set out overnight to Shili Village to find Gu Wen who lived in the shed.
"Why are you here to find the old man again?" Gu Wen was not enthusiastic about Pan Long.
Pan Long smiled and told him about Cang Yuan and Bai Yingxuan.
Gu Wen frowned repeatedly when he heard this, and finally asked: "What's the use of telling me about this? Could it be that the old man, I will come forward and support the little girl?"
He smiled and said, "If it were the old man, I was not a disciple of the Mo family, but a righteous sect of Taoism and Buddhism. With my cultivation and identity, it would be enough to help the little girl support this. But you also know that the old man, I am an imperial criminal invader of the court. Once the identity is revealed, the court masters will immediately flock to me and never stop. I have to do with her, which is not a good thing for her!"
Pan Long nodded, and naturally he didn't plan to ask Gu Wen to support Bai Yingxuan.
"I just told this to seniors." He smiled, "As for what seniors do, I don't need to point fingers to the identity and supernatural powers of seniors."
Guwen suddenly seemed a little hesitant.
He roughly guessed what Pan Long meant, and wanted to secretly protect Bai Yingxuan so that she would not be killed by the killer sent by the elders of the Cang family for no reason.
But... this is a little inconsistent with his previous plan.
He hesitated for a long time, but finally couldn't help it. He sighed first and then said, "I understand, I know what to do about this."
He then raised his face and issued a banished order to expel guests, and expressed his wish that he did not want to see Pan Long again. Even if everyone meets him on the road, it would be better to pretend that they don’t know each other at all!
Pan Long laughed dryly, knowing that he was very unhappy, so he bowed and turned around and left.
When he walked away, Gu Wen whispered: "Fefei, what do you think about this?"
"Everything is life, no matter how little it is, no matter how much it is." The Tianji Treasure Box did not manifest a human form this time, but a sound with a metal texture came from it.
Gu Wen was stunned for a moment and sighed: "You are right! Everything is fate. Who can tell the fate of a person accurately?"
