Yao Xitong knew that Wu Zu was from the Central Plains, which was exactly one of the "good things" he did when he came to Northern Liao not long ago. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 At first glance, when he heard him mention Master Kongzhi, he had a vague guess in his heart, and he couldn't help asking, "Can Wu Zu elaborate?"

Wu Zu naturally didn't elaborate, but just told Yao Xitong that if he saw Master Kongzhi, he would ask him if he knew where the blind man who sang back then had gone.

Countless memory fragments were stitched together into a complete story in Yao Xitong's mind.

Wu Zu was the guest who lived in the Zen monastery back then. It was he who solved the problem of Cihang Shitai going mad and saved the blind man, and it was he who asked the blind man to make a living without learning for ten years.

Northern Liao Wuzu turned out to be a member of the Sima family, I really never expected it.

What I didn't expect was that Jairi recognized that the strings of the erhu were made of tendons. No wonder he would spend time repairing the erhu, it is estimated that the strings made of tendons have already been replaced by him, just waiting for Yao Xitong to ask for it......

"Thank you, Wu Zu. ”

"Don't thank me, thank her. She asked me to come and say you were important to her. ”

Wu Zu left a few bottles of medicine and was about to leave, but Yao Xitong insisted on sending him to the door. In the dark night, Wu Zu took a few steps, and suddenly turned back to Yao Xitong and said, "Don't let me regret saving you, and don't let her down." ”

Yao Xitong said firmly to Wu Zu, "Unless I die, I will never let her down again." ”

The next day, the king of Northern Liao was buried. Xiao Baoer did not attend the cumbersome ceremony, and used her behavior to tell everyone that she did not fight for the throne, and had no desire or desire.

Seeing that the ceremony was over and the sacrifice was offered in front of the mound in front of the clothed crown, she walked out of the dormitory, dressed in plain clothes and followed Wu Zu to the depths of the grassland.

Yao Xitong begged the crow to let him see the final return of the king of Northern Liao, and the crow took him quietly with the team for a while.

When the team left the Great Liao, the honor guard was luxurious, eight horses pulled the coffin of the king of Northern Liao, and hundreds of guards held high the royal flag to serve on both sides. As the procession got closer and closer to the burial ground chosen by Northern Liao, the guard of honor gradually dispersed, and the carriage and guards returned the same way.

In the end, only Wu Zu was left to take the lead, Xiao Bao'er followed, and a corpse on horseback with no clothes on.

Following this, the crow did not dare to follow again. Further on is the burial area, the tomb of the king, and the place where anyone who enters will be shot except Wu Zu and Xiao Bao'er.

Yao Xitong looked at Xiao Bao'er as if a white flower disappeared from view, and asked, "There is no monument in the burial area, just a grassland?"

"Yes. ”

"The King of Northern Liao doesn't need any funerary goods?"

"Yes. ”

"This is too ......," Yao Xitong didn't know what words to use to describe the shock in his heart.

What kind of emperor could have done so cleanly that he didn't even need a tombstone for people to pay tribute to? If such a burial method were placed in the Central Plains and let people comment on it, he would definitely be branded as a foreign, barbarian, and uncivilized savage of the Northern Liao.

Really?

Yao Xitong thought it was good, he lived vigorously and died cleanly. If you don't talk about reincarnation or reincarnation, you will have a lifetime, and if you don't have it, you'll be gone!

Xiao Baoer's trip to bury the king of Northern Liao will take at least half a month.

The jade pendant of the king of Northern Liao was handed over to the crow, and he took over the defense of the imperial city, Wan Yanyu had a lot of opinions about it, but was glared back by Xiao Bao'er with a look. In this regard, Wan Yanyu showed his usual patience and forbearance, and did not bother with Xiao Baoer for the time being.

Restarting the nine-part system is very beneficial to him, and Xiao Bao'er can't get the jade pendant in his hand anyway. In addition, he has a very good relationship with the Tuotuo Department and the Yecuo Department over the years, even if Xiao Baoer wants to come back, the two can also fight each other.

After the death of the king of Northern Liao, the palace completely became an ornament without an owner, and the crow took Yao Xitong with Yao Xitong to follow the funeral procession with confidence. About ten days later, the two returned and learned that a ring had been set up in the square at the entrance of the palace, and a person from the Central Plains was challenging the Northern Liao warriors.

The crow looked inexplicable, and he couldn't figure out who dared to run to Beiliao alone to challenge the warriors here.

Yao Xitong is not curious at all, and with Xiao Bao'er, she has to get used to strange things, this princess is simply a coexistence of luck and bad luck.

The challenger was the butcher, and he did not challenge all the Northern Liao warriors, he only challenged the 50,000 soldiers and horses brought out by Yelu Zongyuan.

What's going on?

It has to start with the butcher rescuing Wu Jun in Yedu.

At that time, the situation was critical, and Xiao Baoer used her life to threaten him to save people. He didn't know what to think, but he felt that Xiao Bao'er was so reasonable, and he rescued Wu Jun in a daze.

The Wu family wants to find Wu Jun, and the Zhu family also wants to find Wu Jun, followed by the powerful Song Lord.

The butcher is like stabbing a hornet's nest, and the tail that follows him has never been broken, and if he is not careful, he will be discovered and followed. Fortunately, the Black and White Pavilion didn't look for Wu Jun, and the people who followed him were not as professional as him, and he could find a few comfortable days off after escaping for a while.

During this period, Wu Jun was not very cooperative, and refused to leave Song Di no matter what, looking like he had to die at the door of his house. Until the news came out in Song that Xiao Baoer had killed Xuan Hua and Wan Yan Zhaozheng and was wanted by the whole territory......

Wu Jun felt that this matter had something to do with him, and he wanted to go back to the Wu family if he said anything.

The butcher smelled the smell of the Black and White Pavilion from the latest batch of stalkers, and whether Wu Jun wanted it or not, he dragged Wu Jun in the direction of Northern Liao. As soon as the two came out of Songdi, the stalkers all turned into killers, and Wu Jun finally realized that the problem was not as simple as he imagined, and actively cooperated with the butcher to hurry.

They arrived in Northern Liao earlier than Xiao Bao'er, but learned that the princess's life and death were uncertain, and the king of Northern Liao was burned in place of Wu Zu, and the whole country was in the grief of national mourning.

Great Xia couldn't go back, and Northern Liao couldn't enter, so the two wandered around the Xia-Liao border all day long to inquire about the news.

Strange to say, the vast grassland scenery and enthusiastic herdsmen made Wu Jun love life again, and he came out of grief.

When he learned that the butcher and Xiao Baoer were friends and foes, the butcher saved him only because Xiao Baoer was forced to die. He asked the butcher, "You are stupid, isn't it a kind of assassination to force her to death?"

The butcher thought about it carefully, and it was indeed ah!

Watching someone else kill Xiao Baoer is completely different from watching Xiao Baoer commit suicide. The former is that he failed and was incapable of doing it himself. The latter is a great success, the target commits suicide because he does not save people, strictly speaking, he is forced to die, this is the top assassination method!

The butcher regretted it and scolded Xiao Baoer for being too cunning. When he learned that Wu Jun was Xiao Bao'er's master, he would ask Wu Jun for advice every day, and he would wait for Xiao Bao'er to return to the grassland on the day he was caught off guard.

The matter of the Black and White Pavilion escorting Xiao Bao'er to Northern Liao was extremely secretive. The night before entering Northern Liao, the Fox and the Prisoner Ox left the team and joined the killers who were lying in ambush outside the imperial city.

According to Mei Shiren's calculations, no matter how Xiao Baoer runs, she will always return to the imperial city to attend the funeral. As long as the real elite of the Black and White Pavilion is ambushed there, as soon as Xiao Bao'er appears, the Grim Reaper will be able to spread its black wings on her.

The butcher came from the Prison Niu Hall, and accidentally found the marks left by the brothers in the hall, and was very curious about the purpose of the Black and White Pavilion coming to Beiliao. Knowing that a large number of killers would ambush Xiao Bao'er outside the imperial city, he decided to prevent this from happening.

The reason is still that one, Xiao Baoer is his prey, and no one can rob it!

He asked Wu Jun to pretend to be a newcomer to the Prison Cow Hall, and informed everyone in the hall to change places to ambush.

He used the identity of the killer of the Prison Cow Hall to inform the killers of the other branches, and he still ambushed in another place.

The Black and White Pavilion has been established for many years, and Mei Shi has exhausted his calculations, and he began to know the traitor when he felt that something was wrong. So much so that the interior of the Black and White Pavilion is very clean, and there are basically no traitors.

It is for this reason that everyone in the pavilion trusts each other very much, and they did not expect that anyone else would pretend to be a killer, and they are very familiar with the various code words and marks of the Black and White Pavilion.

By the time the fox and the cow arrived at the meeting point, there were no ghosts in that place, only a sign to remind them that things had changed, and to tell them to meet in another place. The two did not suspect him, and went honestly, but they fell into the trap of Wu Jun and the butcher and were arrested.

The Prisoner Ox and the Fox were both first-class masters, and it took a lot of effort for Wu Jun and the butcher to keep them in a place where no one else could find them.

After dealing with the two men, the butcher walked towards the palace with his weapon in his arms. is going to call Xiao Baoer out to make it clear, not to mention the prison cow and the fox, the relationship between the two of them is still a killer and a target, and it will not change for a lifetime.

At the gate of the palace, the butcher did not see Xiao Bao'er, but clashed with a Northern Liao warrior.

This warrior's name was Tomto, and he served with his brother Jebel in the Yelu Zongyuan army.

Jebe was a close associate of Yelu Zongyuan, and went to Bactria with him, but died in the Song Dynasty.

There are many rumors, and there are probably two of the most reliable.

First, Yelu Zongyuan and Yelu Bao'er murdered the son of the Song lord, Xuan Hua, and his newlywed wife, Wan Yan Zhao.

Second, Yelu Zongyuan ended up like this in order to save Yelu Bao'er. It's all because Yelu Baoer is willful, and she has to grab a man with Princess Xisu......

Tomto cared about the origin of the Yelu sect, and even more concerned about his brother Jebe.

Great Xia had already sent a letter to Wan Yan Yu, handing over Xiao Bao'er to get back the bodies of Yelu Zongyuan and his subordinates. If he was unwilling, Daxia would hand over the corpses of Yelu Zongyuan and others to Xisu for disposal.

Tomto knew that Northern Liao would not compromise with Great Xia, and that his brother's body would most likely be sealed with salt and mud by the Western Su witch medicine and nailed to the rock.

This is the evil art used by the Liao State to punish sinners, and after the corpse is disposed of in this way, the soul of the deceased cannot ascend to heaven for the rest of his life.

Jebe was a warrior, and if he died in Northern Liao, he should enjoy heavenly burial or cremation. Now that he had come to this end, Tomuto wanted to know what the truth of the matter was, and whether Jebe was as heroic as a warrior when he died.

Knowing that the princess had returned to Beiliao, Tomuto hurried back to the palace from the grassland, and as soon as he got off the horse, he saw a Central Plains man shouting the princess's name to break into the palace. He blocked this person's way with a whip, saying that he wanted to see the princess who also came first and came later, how could the cowardly Central Plains people line up in front of the warriors......

The butcher could not understand the Liao language, and thought that Tomuto was going to attack him, so he could not help but use his strength to pull Tomto off his horse with the whip. His behavior was a declaration of war in Tomuto's eyes, and the two started fighting without saying a word, and Tomuto was defeated.

The guards guarding the gate looked at it with relish, and when they saw that Tomuto was defeated, they were not only not comforted, but asked rhetorically: Yelu Zongyuan is the first warrior of Northern Liao, why are the soldiers he brought out all of them?

The butcher saw that the guards guarding the door were laughing, and he laughed too, and in Tomuto's eyes, he was a warrior who provoked the entire Yelu Sect Origin.

On that day, Tomuto forgot the purpose of coming to the palace, and directly sent a war letter to the butcher, asking him to go to the square on time the next day to fight.

The butcher couldn't understand Liao, and the guard guarding the door told him that it was not difficult to enter the palace, and that he would just go to the square tomorrow to fight!

The crow and Yao Xitong finally understood the cause and effect of the whole thing.

Looking at the group of eager warriors in the square, Yao Xitong asked, "Didn't you tell them why Yelu Zongyuan died?"

The crow shook his head in annoyance.

When he was in the Central Plains, he missed everything about Northern Liao day and night, and never forgot that he was a native of Northern Liao. When he really returned to Northern Liao, he found that more than 30 years of life in the Central Plains had quietly changed all his habits, and the homeland he had missed for a long time was not as beautiful as he imagined.

Thirty years is a long time, eating habits can be changed, but thinking habits can't be changed.

The crow was accustomed to wallowing in the whirlpool of power in Great Xia, and the people with twists and turns really didn't know how to communicate with an upright man like Tomato, and they didn't know if telling the truth about the death of the Yelu sect would cause bad results.

"It's better to leave the matter of Prince Yelu to the princess, she is the person concerned, and the person to whom these warriors are loyal. ”

Yao Xitong asked curiously, "Don't you want the throne?"

The crow said sincerely, "I thought about it, I thought about it every day, but I knew that I couldn't do it, and I wasn't suitable for it." ”

"Look at what you said, the emperor is not working, you just have to eat and drink?"

"I want to, too, but I can't...... Since returning to Beiliao, I often dream that the Yelu family is buried in my hands, and I have insomnia for one night. It's fate, and when I got to this position, I realized that there was a big gap between me and my brother. How could he sit on the pyre and burn himself to death? Is that true?"

Yao Xitong smiled, "I thought you accompanied me to secretly follow the funeral procession, but after a long time, your doubts are no less than mine!"

The crow also smiled, and Yao Xitong could vaguely see that he had a lot of gray hair.

"Yelu Zongyuan's team is difficult to manage?"

"The jade pendant showed them, and it was the same Tuo Mutuo, who yelled directly at me: I know what the jade pendant is for, but I don't accept you, only Zongyuan, can't I?"

"I asked them why they didn't accept it, but no one said anything. It's useless to talk to someone in private. This group of people is completely different from the group guarding the Imperial City, and I don't know how the imperial brother has managed it all these years, these alone are enough to give people a headache, not to mention that the four tribes are more difficult than the other......"

Yao Xitong could see that what the crow said was all sincere, and he couldn't blame him for being incompetent, the emperor's job was really not easy to do.

Even if you just eat and drink, you have to be careful of food poisoning, and if you can't get it, you will be pulled off the dragon chair. If you want to make a little political achievements and be a bright gentleman, you must either be able to employ people or be diligent enough.

The crow shouted to stop the competition, and everything waited for the princess to return.
