Chapter 16 Two Feelings Happiness Beyond Life and Death
The middle-aged general took a group of people to kill their heads to demonstrate, and sure enough, they forced the murderer to turn himself in, but what he didn't expect was that there were two murderers!
The middle-aged general was immediately confused, looked the two up and down, one male and one female were foreigners, and then shouted loudly: "You two foreigners are so bold, you dare to come to Tatibao to spread wilderness?
"It's me!" Yeli replied in a loud voice.
"It's me!" Unexpectedly, Zixi also replied in unison.
Yeli was taken aback and looked at Zixi.
Zixi smiled and looked at each other.
"What are you with?" Ye Li reproached, pulled Princess Zixi behind him with his left hand, and pulled out the demon slashing knife from the back of his shoulder with his right hand, and said with a straight chest, "I cut that monster, and this knife is proof of it! β
When the soldiers saw that Yeli had flashed his weapons, they thought that he was going to go wild and commit murder, so Hula surrounded the generals.
The middle-aged general's face did not change, and he laughed and said: "I hurt our guardian spirit, and he is still so rampant! I really don't know how thick the sky is! Someone is coming! Quickly tie up this kid for me!"
Several soldiers carried ropes and rushed up, about to unload their knives and tie people up.
Unexpectedly, Princess Zixi's face turned peachy, drew a sword in her hand, blocked in front of Yeli's body and said: "Don't kidnap people indiscriminately! I cut that monster, if you want to tie me, tie me up!"
Several soldiers were stunned, holding ropes in their hands, at a loss.
Yeli didn't understand why Princess Zixi had to confess for him twice or three times, and she stayed there in a daze for a while.
The middle-aged general sneered: "The chief is anxiously waiting for someone to dignitary, how can I have the spare time to mess around with you! Since you both claim to be murderers, don't blame me, tie them up together, and escort them to the Yingshen Temple!"
Several soldiers swarmed up.
Yeli was about to resist, Zixi shook his head and gave a look, and the two of them were tied up by the soldiers like tigers and wolves, and the swords were also taken away and presented to the middle-aged general.
The middle-aged general took the sword and looked at it carefully, only to see a white light from the demon slashing knife dazzling, and he couldn't help but praise the good knife and good knife.
For a while, the middle-aged general dismissed the panicked and frightened people under the earthen platform, and ordered a soldier to go to the palace fort first to pass the chief's blood Wuyan: the murderer has been taken and is escorted to the Yingshen Temple.
In the end, the middle-aged general called out the soldiers to escort the two to the temple of Tatibao to meet the new chief of Tati.
The soldiers pushed the two all the way to Tatibao, and the middle-aged general walked in front.
The people had a false alarm, comforted each other, and were looking forward to the annual ancestor worship ceremony and praying for the blessings and protection of the gods, so they were also reluctant to leave, and they all got out of the way.
Yeli held his head high and was not afraid, but complained about Princess Zixi: "It's the monster I hurt, what are you here for?"
"You saved me, why don't I save you? I'm the princess of Kejing, and I have Elder Yanqi interceding for me, this new chief has to give some face, at least he won't lose his life, but what about you? It's hard to say, maybe you will lose your life. Zixi said.
Yeli was originally the second prince of Beiji Country, and his identity was naturally very noble, but no one knew about it for the time being. He was of noble blood and had the Dao technique in the chest, but he didn't want to accept this feeling, as if he was holding back his breath, so he said willfully: "What if you lose your life? If you want a girl's family to take the blame for the crime, won't I become a greedy person who is afraid of death?"
"No one said that you are greedy for life and afraid of death, you are a hero who eliminates harm for the people, I admire this girl very much. Seeing that Yeli not only did not admit favors, but was a little conceited, Princess Zixi's words were slightly ridiculed.
Yeli listened to that and there was a strange taste, not sure that it was ridicule, but he also had goosebumps all over his body. In fact, he has been studying art and seeking Taoism in Yanjingshan since he was a child, and he has already branded the dream of a great hero who asks for the people's life in his heart.
Yeli hung his head and said: "I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, nor am I a hero who eliminates harm for the people." β
The night leaves the head drooping, and the naΓ―ve is cute.
Princess Zixi's heart seemed to be lightly touched, her whole body palpitated, and she laughed again: "You are not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and you are not a hero who eliminates harm for the people, so what are you?
"You... You... You're the bear!" Yeli was ridiculed, and immediately roared angrily, glaring in return.
Princess Zixi pursed her lips and didn't answer, but she laughed more and more.
In the past, the prisoners who were escorted into the temple of Tatibao were already frightened on the way, and they were all over the crotch, and they could not have such a casual chat! - In fact, this is because the two of them have not entered the world deeply, are innocent, and they are happy with each other, so they forget the danger.
Tati Fort is constructed by more than 10 fortresses of large and small, all of which are dome gourd tops, palace forts are layered on top of each other, stretching for several miles, and the blue sky is shining, surrounded by green trees, although the scale is not large, but it is also quite spectacular.
The middle-aged general came to the main gate of the palace fort and ordered the one-eyed leader to escort two of them into the fort with four soldiers, and the rest of the soldiers to stand by outside the gate.
At this moment, Elder Yanqi walked out of the palace fort in a depressed mind, and saw Yeli and Princess Zixi being tied up tightly, hurriedly came up, and asked in surprise, "What happened?"
Princess Zixi was just about to reply, but the middle-aged general opened his mouth first: "Dad, it was the two of them who hurt our patron saint, and the child was about to take him and the two to see the chief." β
Elder Yanqi took the opportunity of the ancestor worship ceremony to enter the palace fort, handed over a letter to the chief Xue Wuyan, and informed Princess Kejing about coming to ask for troops, but was politely prevaricated by Xue Wuyan because he was busy with the ancestor worship ceremony. He was just depressed and had nothing to do, and the two of them actually broke into such a big disaster, which was really a wave of unsettled and wave after wave.
When Elder Yanqi heard this, he panicked and said, "I just submitted a letter and explained the reason to the chief, how long has it been since such a thing happened?"
Thinking gloomily, he asked the middle-aged general again: "Qi Wu, do you know who this girl is who you kidnapped?"
"Who is it?" the middle-aged general was inexplicable.
"She's Zixi!"
"Zixi?"
This middle-aged general is the third son of Elder Yanqi, Yan Qiwu, who served as the head of the guard in Tatibao, and rarely returned to his home because of his heavy duties, so he has not yet met Zixi.
Hearing this, he was quite surprised, and looked at Princess Zixi carefully, "She is really Sister Zixi?"
"Exactly...... Why don't you hurry up and loosen the ties between the two of them?" Elder Yanqi urged.
Yan Qiwu didn't seem to hear the elder speak, and stepped on Princess Zixi and saluted: "It turned out to be Zixi's sister, and Brother Qiwu was offended." β
Princess Zixi and Yan Qiwu also met several times, and then Ao Hao Botuo conquered the two tribes, the Kejing people were conquered, and the Tati people were driven out of the country, and the other two sons of the elder Yan Qi were killed in that war, and then the two tribes were far apart, which gradually became less attentive to each other, and the two were also separated for more than ten years.
Princess Zixi heard that the middle-aged general was Yan Qiwu, so she hurriedly bent down and said, "It turned out to be Qiwu's brother, and my sister is polite." β
Yan Qiwu blushed suddenly, and turned around in a panic and saluted back: "Sister doesn't have to be polite...... You're welcome......"
The two replied to each other, the words of the brother and sister were quite affectionate, and it was not a taste of sourness when they listened to it at night, only looked at each other coldly, but it was not easy to interject.
Elder Yanqi hurriedly said, "This is not the place to speak. In the afternoon, will you quickly untie the two of you?"
Yan Qiwu said solemnly: "Dad, the two of them are the murderers that the chief wants to take, how can the child be released privately?" said, and said to Princess Zixi, "My sister is offended, and my brother is also responsible." He also asked his sister to enter the castle and explain the matter to the chief. β
"Needless to say, it's the monster I slashed! If you want to kill or kill you, you still let the princess go, and take me to your chief!" Ye Li was so impatient that he cried out loudly.
"So good, since you have confessed your sin, I will let the princess go. Yan Qiwu couldn't help but rejoice in private.
"Brother Qiwu: I hurt that monster, you better let the night go and take me to the chief. Zixi glared at Yeli coldly and said hurriedly.
The two repeated their old tricks and argued, but Yan Qiwu saw it in his eyes and understood his heart. He said helplessly: "Both of you have to plead guilty, I'm afraid I won't be able to save either of you." β
Yan Qiwu was in a dilemma when he heard the guards shouting: "Great Commander, quickly escort the two murderers to the Temple of Welcoming God." β
When Yan Qiwu heard the news, he was shocked and said: "I have ordered the soldiers to inform the chief just now, and now the chief has known the news, what should I do?"
"What is there to be afraid of, I was just going to meet this murderous chief, I want to see if he has a green face and fangs, three heads and six arms!"
When the words fell, Yeli held his head high, and under the custody of the soldiers, he strode towards the fort.
"Yeli, you wait, you wait......" Princess Zixi called nervously as she hurried after Yeli.
The elder father and son were so anxious that beads of sweat rolled on their foreheads, and they trembled and followed into Tatibao and walked straight to the temple of Yingshen.
The Welcoming Temple was built under the ground of Tati Fort, and it was the underground palace chamber for the Blood Wuyan Demon Worm.
On both sides of the road leading to the Yingshen Temple, a torch was planted diagonally a few meters apart, and there were also oil lamps hanging on the vault, and the flames kept splitting and burning and spitting light, but the light was very dim, and the shadowy life was like a netherworld. From time to time, there was a terrible moaning sound in the apse, which echoed in the corridor, making it even more terrifying.
The dampness in the corridor is blowing, and the wind is blowing, blowing people's bones as if they are soft.
Princess Zixi shrunk slightly, trembling non-stop, and staggered forward close to the night. Ye Li, but the newborn calf was bold and brave, and strode in with the soldiers.
After walking 100 meters, it suddenly opened up, and it had already come to the palace of Yingshen.
I saw that the torches on both sides of the Yingshen Temple were planted high, and the fire in one of the Ding furnaces was flickering, reflecting every corner of the red trickle, just like a hideous blood-stained demon cave.
The newly enthroned chieftain of the Natati tribe was dressed in a wide robe, with long hair and a shawl, and lay down in a wide golden chair, supporting his forehead with his hands, as if he were sleeping. On the left stood a fierce and indifferent squire named Sinshe, who, like Ankuro, was a well-known warrior of the Tati tribe.
Yan Qiwu slowly walked up to the hall and reported in a low voice: "Chief Qiyu, the two murderers have brought it, and the murder weapon is here." With that, he held his sword above his head with both hands, and stepped forward to contribute.
There was no news of blood, so he suddenly opened his eyes, brushed away the big gun, and straightened up, but saw that his face was like blood, his eyes were like a sword, and he looked like a fierce god.
He took the offering silently, and showed the swords out of their sheaths, and compared the two, but saw that the body of the demon slashing knife was like snow, and the cold light was pressing, so he knew that it was a treasure knife.
"Bring the murderer up, and let Chief Ben take a closer look at what these two things are!" said Xue Wuyan as he slowly lowered his sword and shouted violently.
"No!" Gao Nuo shouted, shouting to the one-eyed dragon and escorting the two to the front of the palace.
In an instant, Yeli and Princess Zixi were escorted to His Royal Highness, and the two stood next to each other, looking indifferent and not afraid.
Blood Wuyan opened a pair of eyes as big as a copper bell, his gaze was blazing, sharp as a falcon, but when he saw that it was a pair of men and women in their prime of youth, he couldn't help but say angrily: "You two stinky dolls, why do you hurt my baby?"
Yeli raised his head and stared at his eyes, and said coldly: "What kind of baby? It's clearly a monster that harms people! If you ask me to encounter it again, I will definitely kill it with a knife!"
"Wow! Okay, you arrogant boy, you hurt my baby, and you are still spilling it on my temple! I want to see if your teeth are hard, or my methods are hard?" β
The one-eyed dragon replied, walked up with two soldiers, and was about to leave the apse of the temple at night.
The elder father and son accompanied the king like a tiger all day long, and when they saw the chief's temper and thunder, they were all terrified and silent, and did not say a word.
Princess Zixi panicked, blocked in front of Ye Li, and shouted: "Stop! It's the monster I've injured! Kill me if you want to, let him go!"
"Where did you come from, the yellow-haired girl? cut my baby, and disrupted my ancestor worship ceremony, do you still want to have a life? drag it down and feed the baby together!" Blood Wuyan sneered, didn't even look at it, and shouted that the soldiers also escorted Princess Zixi into the apse to feed the demon.
When Elder Yanqi heard the shouting, he was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, and hurriedly prostrated himself on the ground and dissuaded: "Chief, slow down! Slow down...... Report to the chief: This girl is the Kejing princess Yingzixi mentioned by the old minister, and she came to ask for help on the order of the Kejing Yinghou, and I hope the chief will think twice. β
Yan Qiwu also hurriedly lay on the ground and pleaded.
"Hmm, is she Princess Kejing Ying Zixi?" "Blood Wuyan glanced at the elder father and son with a slight suspicion, and then fixed his eyes to look at Princess Zixi.
