Chapter 43: The Land of the Grim Reaper
Wu Hanjiang groaned, and suddenly stretched out a finger and tapped on the tabletop, the sound was subtle, and Long Xi raised his head only to see his indifferent face and cold eyes. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
He didn't say anything at the moment, and stood up from the chair, Wu Hanjiang was still motionless, and he didn't have the slightest intention of leaving, his fingers continued to tap on the table, and the sound was almost inaudible, but when Long Xi looked at him again, he saw tea spilled from the cup on the table.
These splashes of water flowed slowly on the dark red desktop, beating back and forth with the frequency of Wu Hanjiang's fingers hitting the desktop, and finally formed a word on the desktop, Long Xi finally raised his head, stared at Wu Hanjiang, his eyes splashed with sparks, and then looked at the twisted and twisted water flow on the desktop, which was a "come" word.
Long Xi looked at Wu Hanjiang, he knew that Wu Hanjiang was born with a keen sense of smell like a beast, but why didn't he say it, and then look at the word "come" on the table, what did he want to express?
Before Long Xi could speak, a sound of footsteps outside the door had sounded, who was coming? Long Xi suddenly turned around and walked to the door, and saw Tan Wulang and a group of servants rushing over with large bags and small bags.
Seeing him sweating profusely, Long Xi couldn't help but worry about his body, after all, he was already an old man over half a hundred years old, and seeing that he was carrying a gift box in his hand, he hurriedly helped him take it.
Tan Goro's face was deeply tired in addition to sweat, his face was covered with wrinkles, and every depression hid exhaustion.
But his face was still ashamed, his tone was full of apologies, and he said slowly: "Young Master Longxi, I'm very sorry for you, I heard that you met Chen Zheng last night, and you were originally here to seek revenge, but you were asked to risk ...... for me", speaking of this, he seemed to be full of remorse and reluctance.
Long Xi interrupted him and said: "Mr. Tan is outside, even if he is not here to seek revenge, if he meets us, he may not necessarily stop", he glanced at Wu Hanjiang and continued: "Who told us to be nosy people, even if we bump into each other on the road, we may want to meet each other."
When Tan Wulang heard this, he was immediately relieved, stretched out his hand and stroked his long black and white hair, and said in a slightly slower tone: "Then I should thank you two well", as he spoke, the servant had already walked in, carrying a large box and a small box in his hand, and put it down, filling half of the room in an instant.
Long Xi didn't have time to say anything, but now he didn't say anything, and as soon as the servants put down their gifts, they didn't leave the house, which was faster than a gust of wind.
Long Xi glanced at their backs and said with a smile: "Why is Mr. Tan so polite."
Tan Wulang said: "It should be, it should be."
Long Xi shook his head with a smile, looked at the boxes and said, "Even if these are all white silver tickets, we can't take them away."
When Tan Wulang heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he said in surprise: "Childe is leaving?"
Longxi said: "We were originally going to go."
Tan Wulang looked at him and pondered for a long time before he hesitated, "Where are you going?"
Long Xi glanced at Wu Hanjiang with a smile and said, "Didn't he tell you."
Tan Wulang also glanced at Wu Hanjiang and said with a smile: "Wu Daxia has never liked to talk, and it is not convenient to ask more questions below."
Long Xi laughed twice and said, "Mr. Tan, why do you think we are here?"
Tan Wulang pursed his lips and was silent for a long time, as if he was thinking about something, and after a while, he had to shake his head and said: "I really can't think of it, the old man has lived here for more than ten years, and he hasn't seen a single Middle-earth person come here."
Long Xi smiled and said, "Haven't you seen any of them?", and couldn't help but glance at Wu Hanjiang, with contempt in his eyes, as if to say, "Grandma's bear, Lao Tzu has fallen for you."
Wu Hanjiang didn't look at him either, he lowered his head and thought about his thoughts as if he was fine.
Long Xi said: "Why don't they dare to come here?" This sentence was obviously said to Tan Wulang, Tan Wulang immediately replied, he stroked his beard and said: "That's just because this place is desolate, it is not suitable for human survival."
Long Xi smiled: "But Mr. Tan has lived here for ten years."
Tan Wulang's voice sounded again, and said: This is just one of them, the most important thing is that this place is close to the border, I don't think the old man needs to say anything more."
Long Xi nodded, and said with satisfaction: "Yes, because if you go a hundred miles ahead, you will reach Ziyu Pass."
When Tan Wulang heard the words "Ziyu Pass", he almost jumped up from his chair, there was no blood on his face, and he was silent for a long time before he sighed and said: "Instead of calling Ziyu Pass, it is better to call Death Pass accurately."
Long Xi raised his head and said, "Death Pass?"
Tan Wulang sorted out the facial muscles that were slightly deformed due to fear, and said in a trembling voice: "The war there is extremely tragic, there are at least more than 100,000 soldiers killed there every year, and there are already white bones, I heard that the houses there are all made of dry rotting corpses and skeletons."
Long Xi couldn't help but disagree at this time, and said: "100,000 people died in battle, how can there be so many, I remember that every year when I go to the front line to report to the imperial court, I say that I only lost more than 1,000 people, and there will be countless good news in a few years."
Tan Wulang shook his head, his tone calmed down, and he said slowly: "Even if the imperial court is thousands of miles away, it is impossible to completely ignore the war here."
Long Xi frowned, listening to him go on, Tan Wulang pondered for a long time before he continued, "I dare to think that the court deliberately concealed the report", he sighed again, and said: "After all, the peace of the world is the most important thing for the imperial court, only by weakening and sacrificing will there be a steady stream of soldiers, if the true situation of the front-line war is reported to the people of the world, it will inevitably cause panic ......."
Long Xi seemed to know very well, and he couldn't help nodding and said, "Ziyu Pass, Ziyu Pass."
Tan Wulang seemed to remember something, and suddenly said: "It is said that there is a big incident there recently."
Long Xi said lightly: "Is it that the top ten generals died in battle?"
Tan Wulang gritted his teeth and gurgled and said tremblingly: "So you know."
Only then did Long Xi straighten up, strode out, and sighed: "Ziyu Pass, Ziyu Pass, it seems that we have come to the right place."
Tan Wulang heard him say this behind him, and immediately jumped up, the chair rattled, and his pair of eyes were about to bulge, and he pointed at Longxi and said, "You...... Are you going to go there".
Long Xi walked out, came to a path paved with bright red flowers, Tan Wulang opened his mouth, his body could no longer move, he looked at Long Xi's figure from afar, as if he was looking at a madman.
If you are not a madman, who will go to the purple jade pass made of white bones, and if you are not a madman, who will go to the land of death where even the ten generals can't resist.
As soon as Longxi went out, Wuhanjiang also followed, he was sitting motionless, but at this time he suddenly rushed to Longxi like a wild horse.
Long Xi didn't seem to see him, only looked at a bright red flower in a daze.
