Ye Wujian had a dream on a grand scale.

In the dream, the garrisoned cities became fragmented under the attack of Li Huangzong's 100,000-strong army, with corpses everywhere and broken walls. Every place Li Huangzong stepped on was filled with suffocating despair. The ghost medicine master of the world's No. 1 Poison Sect played a key role in this catastrophe, he held a white candle and placed it on the periphery of each city, the medicinal properties of the city-slaughtering poison spread, and the message of death was finally pressed in by Li Huangzong and his army. Li Huangzong won the world, but the ghost medicine master himself was put under house arrest by Li Huangzong.

The dynasty stopped the war, but Li Huangzong's dictatorial rule made this new and imperfect dynasty more and more dark. People have just gotten a respite from the cessation of war, but they can't really see the original hope of life, and all the officials who hold a single position, like vampires, exploit their own territory. This kind of flawless and exclusive government camp was not suppressed until the fourth prince Li Zongde was officially named the 'crown prince'.

Li Zongde first made great efforts to adjust the program of the court, eliminate traitorous ministers, abolish bad habits, and govern a set of policies that were completely inclined to the common people. Although Li Huangzong didn't like it, he didn't stop it, because after all, everything Li Zongde did was for his dynasty. Subsequently, Li Zongdeping ruled both inside and outside, except for corrupt officials and evil bandits, hoping to uproot the derivative of the system of independent power of the emperor to the surrounding towns. Although the process was arduous, Li Zongde did not give up.

It belongs to the true hope of the common people, the light of life brought by Li Zongde. Ye Wujian seemed to see the man's back, tall and generous. A back that people can trust no matter what. With a firm belief and perseverance in the back.

But people did not wait for the dynasty envisioned by Li Zongde. The resistance of the dark forces rushed towards Li Zongde like a tide, and under the power led by the second prince Li Zongsheng, the undercurrent of conspiracy and intrigue completely disintegrated Li Zongde. The final direction of the imperial dynasty was only to branch off here as an unformed branch, which eventually led to the river itself. And the owner of that back has only become a taboo that is not mentioned in this incomparable red river dyed with human blood.

Although Li Zongde was forever silent, the influence he caused changed some of the people, and later that group of people formed an organization called the 'Sanyi Society'.

……

Ye Wujian slowly woke up from his dream, and Lingling knelt beside Ye Wujian and cried into tears.

Lingling saw that Ye Wujian had woken up, and cried excitedly: "Brother! You're finally awake! ”

Ye Wujian sat up with the support of Lingling, and found that we were still in the same position, and there were three brocade guards lying in front of me, but they were now just like the name of the pair of inner and outer ring 'dragon scales' partners, dead and alive, and became two cold corpses. They all had an arrow stuck in their heads.

Ye Wujian was still wondering who saved Ye Wujian, and then Ye Wujian saw the sharpshooter of the palace, Luo Xian.

Luo Xian stood straight in front of me with a bow and arrows, different from the decadence I saw him at the beginning, at this moment he exuded a positive mood of striving for progress. And his eyes were exceptionally clear, and he looked at Ye Wujian with a mysterious smile.

He said, "Are you awake?" ”

Ye Wujian said: "You saved me?" ”

"Not exactly," he said. ”

Luo Xian looked at the location of the inn and said, "At that time, there were six 'dragon scales' standing next to you, and I am afraid that no one in the world can rescue you from such a lineup alone." I had already given up, probably because you didn't deserve to die, but just as they were about to make a move, a firework went off at the inn, and I knew it was the order of the 'Dragon Scales'. The six dragon scales all rushed quickly towards the inn, leaving only four brocade guards. As far as the brocade guards alone are concerned, I can kill as many arrows as I have. ”

He's really different from what he used to be. At least Ye Wujian couldn't see Luo Bing's shadow on him. He smiled at Ye Wuji, this smile should not be the smile that a person who has been lonely for more than ten years should have. From this smile, Ye Wujian seemed to see the original enthusiastic boy who was always enthusiastic and determined to become a sharpshooter.

He knelt down and dipped his hand in the blood on Ye Wuji's shoulder, which was mixed with a little purple venom. He looked at Ye Wujian and said, "Also, fortunately, this purple poison only acts on paralyzing people's spirits, and it is not fatal. Otherwise, even if I kill those four brocade guards. You won't survive either. ”

Ye Wujian remembered 'there is death and no life'. In fact, they are not necessarily as ruthless as their name. Ye Wujian thought that the people who could become 'dragon scales' were not really ruthless people, and on the contrary, they had absolutely richer emotions than normal people, but they were very deeply suppressed.

Ye Wujian looked at Luo Xian, frowned and asked, "Why did you appear here?" ”

Luo Xian smiled and said, "Of course, I'm here to repay your favor." You're a nuisance, and I'll only save you once, and you'll have to rely on yourself for the rest.

Law left first. My nervous system has not fully recovered, and Ling Ling is supporting Ye Wujian to escape. At this time, the two have goals but no direction. The two walked along a road, and soon walked out of Xuhuan Town and stepped into a strange wood. Everywhere there are barren mountains and mountains, and there is no light.

Ye Wujian said to Lingling: "Let's rest here for a while, we are already far away from Xuhuan Town."

Ling Ling had beads of sweat on his forehead, and said to Ye Wujian with extra strength: "No, brother, we still have to go farther, the hero just now said that they are likely to catch up soon." ”

During the journey between the two of them, Lingling had never walked such a long way at one time, and it was still with me half-carrying. Ye Wujian knew that this was almost close to the limit of Lingling. Ye Wujian said: "It's okay Lingling, you put me down, put me down, and I will recover quickly." As long as I recover, they are no match for me.

Lingling said, "Really? ”

Ye Wujian said: "Really. ”

So Lingling put Ye Wujian against a big tree. After Ling Ling put down Ye Wuji, he heard the sound of a small stream flowing not far away. She insisted on finding some water to clean Ye Wuji's wounds, but Ye Wuqian couldn't help Lingling, so she could only let her disappear into the dark woods.

After Lingling left, Ye Wujian listened to the sound of the stream flowing not far away, and suddenly remembered that seventeen years ago, the samurai Heavenly Burial found Ye Wujian along the stream, completely changing the trajectory of Ye Wuji's fate. It's like the sharpshooter Luo Bing who just suddenly appeared. Originally, Ye Wujian had always thought that these people who suddenly appeared at the joint point of Ye Wuji's fate were just an almost coincidental fate with Ye Wuji. But now Ye Wujian suddenly understands that in fact, there are many connections behind this fate, and the so-called coincidences have become inevitable.

Just like Luo Xian, in fact, on the day Ye Wujian escaped from the palace, as soon as he walked into his room, he had already sobered up, but because he didn't have an arrow in his hand at that time, he was not sure that he could win Ye Wujian without an arrow, so he chose to continue to pretend to be stunned and wait for an opportunity to find an opportunity. But Ye Wujian left quietly again, just leaving him a note. Luo Xian didn't know how Ye Wuqian knew about him, so out of curiosity, he followed Ye Wuqian out of the palace until just now.

Luo didn't say where he was going when he left first, but Ye Wujian knew that he would definitely not return to the palace.

And at this moment, Ye Wujian knew even more that Luo Xian actually didn't have the so-called two souls from the beginning, he had always been sober, just pretending to be drunk. And he followed Ye Wujian out of the palace, I'm afraid it was not just because of curiosity about me, but more importantly, because he himself wanted to leave the palace. This also makes sense, his actions when he saved Ye Wuji. Because he is repaying Ye Wuji. But as he said, only once.

Ye Wujian slowly adjusted his breathing and recovered his body as soon as possible. But Ye Wujian felt that Lingling had been gone for a little too long. Ye Wujian reluctantly propped up his body, and while softly calling Lingling's name, he walked in the direction of the stream.

Soon Ye Wujian saw Lingling, she was tied to a big tree by the stream, her mouth was blocked, and she could only look at Ye Wujian with her big watery eyes and make a 'woo' sound.

The two of them were still caught up, this was my first reaction, but the person who caught up with the two must not be Li Zongsheng's 'dragon scales', because they didn't have to do this, if it was 'dragon scales', the moment they caught up with the two, it was the moment of my death. There is no need to engage in these famous halls.

Ye Wujian immediately stood in place, carefully listening to the movements around him. Ye Wujian found that there were six breathing sounds behind several big trees behind Lingling, two of them were breathing unevenly, they should not be masters, and the other four could not judge their strength from breathing, but Ye Wujian guessed that the four of them should not be weak, but they were by no means strong, at most they were only at the level of Jinyiwei.

Ye Wujian slowly approached Lingling, and with every step, his footsteps made a slight sound. Ye Wujian was sure that the people behind the tree did not pose any threat to Ye Wuji, but my heart was beating inexplicably. My soul is not out of my body, but Ye Wujian always feels that in addition to those six people, there is another person around, another person that Ye Wujian can't detect, and has a great threat to Ye Wuji's life.

Ye Wujian knows one thing deeply, that is, my hunch and its accuracy.

So Ye Wujian walked towards Lingling, slower and slower, more and more cautious, Ye Wujian looked at Lingling with her eyes, she kept shaking her head at Ye Wujian, signaling Ye Wujian not to go over. But in fact, all my senses are extremely released to the surroundings, trying to ensure that every second of change in the surroundings can be detected by Ye Wujian at the first time.

Ling Ling's eyes were full of tears, and he kept shaking his head at Ye Wujian with a 'whine'.

I don't know why, Ye Wujian suddenly wanted to laugh when he saw her appearance. Then Ye Wujian fell.

It may not be believeable that Ye Wujian actually made a very low-level mistake. Ye Wujian was pulled by the eyes of all Ye Wujian who should pay attention. Then ignoring the road under his feet, Ye Wujian tripped over a crisp dead wood, and the person unexpectedly lost his balance and fell to the ground.

At the moment when Ye Wuqian fell to the ground, Ye Wujian felt a trace of breaking wind in the air. Ye Wujian couldn't see the entity, but Ye Wujian knew that the reason why the breaking wind came into being must be because a hidden weapon or arrow passed in front of me. And the speed of this thing was the fastest among the projectiles Ye Wujian had ever seen. Even faster than the marksman Rasien. If it weren't for Ye Wuji's sudden fall and dodging that, then Ye Wujian would have really fallen to the ground at this moment.

In just this moment, Ye Wujian probably guessed the identity of the person who came.

At this moment, the only sense of threat in Ye Wuji's heart suddenly disappeared.

Ye Wujian got up from the ground in embarrassment, and the six people hiding behind Ling Ling also appeared. Ye Wujian recognized one of them.

Li Zongren looked at Ye Wujian fiercely, and said to the people beside him, "Kill him." ”

The four personal guards who followed Li Zongren rushed towards Ye Wujian with knives. Ye Wujian looked at the appearance of them yelling and rushing over, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful. The escape of these monsters of the two actually caused Li Zongren to be followed by these guards who were not even as good as the high-level brocade guards. Li Zongren, who was originally going to be everyone's 'king', you got out of the protection that should have belonged to me, and you ended up in such an embarrassing situation?

It was also at the moment when Li Zongren appeared that Ye Wujian completely understood the origin of the original great deadly threat, as well as its sudden disappearance.

Sir once said that the marksman is the most sophisticated and the most lacking elite in every country's military system. Many of the great wars were really decisive because of their existence. Like other nations, the current dynasty has a sharpshooter like Rasian, and it is even better. The most famous marksman in the Imperial Dynasty is the first marksman in the Imperial City, 'Wind Dawn'.

It is rumored that the arrow in the hand of Dawn of the Wind is so fast that no one will notice it. If you can't even find the traces of arrows, you can't even say how to dodge them. It is rumored that the morning dawn of the stroke was fifteen years old when the divine arrow was practiced, and since then the arrow has no false shots, one arrow and one life, no exceptions. It is also because of this record that the Dawn of the Wind has been maintained for more than 20 years, and the conceited Dawn of the Wind has also set an inexplicable rule for himself - no matter what kind of opponent he faces, he will only shoot one arrow.

Ye Wujian suddenly understood all the weirdness that appeared in Ye Wuji's body before.

Why didn't Ye Wujian notice the dead wood under his feet? In fact, Ye Wujian had already noticed it, but he would still be stumped by it. What's worse is that a dead wood can only make Ye Wuji's body lose coordination, so that I want to trip? I'm afraid this is an accident that doesn't even happen to a normal adult, right? But it all happened to me so weirdly. Maybe it was because of Ye Wuji's sudden action that the morning light of the wind in the dark also made a wrong judgment and sent out the arrow for a while, no matter what, Ye Wujian still didn't find his arrow, but his arrow missed.

This is the advantage of an out-of-body person, even if you are not in an out-of-body state, you can still predict the extension of things around you one step faster, so as to choose the most correct choice independently.

In short, just like Ye Wujian said earlier: "My hunch is really accurate." ”

Even if my body has not fully recovered, it still can't hide the fact that Ye Wujian is a master of the Eight Classics. Soon, Li Zongren's four guards were all knocked down by Ye Wujian. Ye Wujian walked towards Lingling's position step by step.

Ye Wujian saw that Li Zongren's legs began to tremble, but his eyes were still desperately pretending to be calm. And behind Li Zongren stood a haggard old man, Ye Wujian was very surprised, and the old man was very calm. But later, Ye Wujian found that the old man was blind at all. I don't even know what's going on right now.

Li Zongren took out a short knife from his cuff, compared it to Lingling's neck, and said to Ye Wujian fiercely: "Don't come here, if you come over again, I will kill him."

Ye Wujian said: "Wang, do you know that among the monsters that were originally going to be cultivated into 'dragon scales', I am the only one who can act as both an 'outer ring' and an 'inner ring'. Although I am not too strong on either side, I can pass anyway. ”

Li Zongren stared at Ye Wuji, and said in a trembling voice: "What do you mean?" ”

Ye Wujian said: "It means that I can rush in front of you and snatch the knife in your hand before you can use the speed you can't imagine."

Ye Wujian just said this, in fact, Ye Wujian couldn't do it, if it was Lin Tianyu or Ziri, it wouldn't be a problem. But the key is that Li Zongren does not know.

Li Zongren hesitated, Ye Wujian slowly walked towards him and asked, "Why did you kill me." ”

Li Zongren suddenly shouted at Ye Wujian angrily: "Because you betrayed me!" You! You guys! You should all be my most loyal guards, I could have been the safest person in the world, but because of your rebellion, all the 'dragon scales' have left me! I finally heard from my second brother! Of course I'm going to kill you! Whoever betrays me will die! ”

Ye Wujian said: "So you are going to bring the 'Morning Dawn of the Wind' to kill me?" But I'm afraid everyone didn't think of it, right? I was able to dodge the arrows of the Morning of the Wind. And the blind old man behind you. If I'm not mistaken, he should be the world's number one poison sect 'ghost medicine master', right? I really didn't expect that in order to kill me, His Royal Highness the prince was really generous. ”

Ye Wujian looked at Li Zongren with indifferent eyes, and Ye Wujian saw fear in his eyes, but that was just the instinct of people when they were threatened. He didn't have any regrets, and he didn't have the idea of wanting to escape because of Ye Wuji's unexpected strength. In general, Ye Wujian felt that Li Zongren could barely be regarded as a man in addition to being weak. ”

It's just that his IQ is also a hard injury. The duel in the center of the deep palace must be below. I really don't know how a person like him can get the ghost medicine master and the morning light of the wind to be on his side. Maybe...... It's because of the rare stubbornness in Li Zongren's eyes.

Hearing that Ye Wujian had seen through the identity of the old man behind him, Li Zongren didn't panic, he simply threw the dagger in his hand to the ground, and said coldly: "Ghost old man." ”

The blind old man nodded silently, took out a white candle from his bag, put it on the ground, and did not light it immediately.

He said coldly: "Do you know Ye Wuji? If your batch of 'dragon scales' is born successfully, then I still have room to compete in this dynasty. I have suffered all kinds of pressure since I was a child, the pressure from Queen Wang Yu's mother, the pressure from my second brother Li Zongsheng, I knew since I was a child that if I couldn't win the crown prince, then I would only die. Maybe it will die in the hands of the second brother, or it may be in the hands of the queen mother, no matter which side it is, as long as you don't have it, I will definitely die. Since you want me to die, I don't plan to let you live well. ”

Ye Wujian said: "So you just put down the city slaughter poison and let everyone die?" ”

He said, "Yes! ”

Ye Wujian suddenly felt very angry, thinking to himself that you are at least a man who may become our 'king', how can you be so stupid. Just when Ye Wujian didn't know how to convince him, the ghost medicine master suddenly walked in front of Li Zongren.

He bowed politely to Ye Wuji, and said without any emotion in his tone: "Shaoxia, if someone has to die, I don't know if I can take the 'king's life." ”

Ye Wuqian is a little unclear. The blind ghost medicine master looked directly at me, and then said in a calm tone: "Although the villain is blind, he has experienced half a lifetime of dust, and his heart is as clear as a mirror. But anger is inevitable, and I hope to use my death to save the 'king' from some sins.

Xu Yun, who didn't get it, the ghost medicine master couldn't help but fumble the knife that Li Zongren dropped from the ground, and then plunged it into his chest when everyone was surprised.

The ghost medicine master then fell to the ground, and after falling to the ground, the ghost medicine master looked at the candle he had placed on the ground, and suddenly a strange smile appeared on his face, and that smile was like watching a dying man look at his son. He held out his hand to light the candle.

Ye Wujian quickly stepped forward and grabbed his hand, and the fire heart burned in his hand, almost igniting the evil 'City Slaughter Poison'. Ye Wujian didn't kill him immediately, nor did he immediately extinguish Ye Wuji's fire, because Ye Wujian knew that he still had something to say.

The ghost medicine master lay on the ground dying, smiled reluctantly, looked at Ye Wujian with his invisible eyes, and said weakly: "My ghost medicine master has spent his whole life practicing the 'City Slaughter Poison', and he has been a damned person for most of his life. But Li Zongren is different. There is no salvation for this dynasty, but if it must be a king. Then he would be the best choice. ”

Ye Wujian looked up at Li Zongren, and Li Zongren looked at the ghost medicine master in a daze.

The ghost medicine master continued: "If I die, there will be no such thing as 'slaughtering the city' in the world. It's just a pity that the 'antidote to the slaughter of the city' that was made up in this last life didn't save anyone. My sins can only be paid in the next life. But before I die, I hope you'll let me light this last candle. ”

The ghost medicine master said, Ye Wujian slowly let go of his hand, and he lit the candle like he cherished his beloved son.

From the very beginning, the ghost medicine master didn't think about using the 'City Slaughter Poison' again, all he brought with him was another candle that could solve the 'City Slaughter Poison'.

The candle was slowly lit, and the ghost medicine master slowly closed his eyes in the faint spark. Li Zongren looked at all this in a daze.

Ye Wujian silently untied the spirit spirit and walked towards the unknown direction with the spirit spirit.

said lightly: "You go back to the imperial city, Li Zongsheng is already dead, Wang Yu should be dying, and the Sanyi Society will also collapse." If you successfully wait until Li Huangzong dies, you will be the next king. ”

He said, "How do you know." ”

Just now, all of Li Zongsheng's 'dragon scales' were evacuated, it must have been because of the assassination of the two black-clothed men, Ye Wujian didn't believe that the heavenly burial would fail, so only Li Zongsheng was killed. As for Wang Yu, although Bai Tu Simao was not smart enough, as long as he reacted, he would definitely not bear to be toyed with by Wang Yu like this. The most powerful resistance force, the Righteous Society...... Infighting is already beginning. ”

But Ye Wujian had no obligation to explain these to him, Ye Wujian said: "My hunch has always been very accurate. ”
