Chapter 14: Ji Liu
Liu Xiaohua raised her head slightly, first lowered her eyes, and then secretly raised her eyebrows and glanced up.
At this glance, she was looking at the boy who was looking at her, and she was shocked, but she was stunned.
Isn't the son in front of her the one she met in the mountains and killed Li Wu? It's just that now that I've changed into plain clothes, the whole person looks a little quieter, and I'm not as pretty as aggressive as before. However, he looked unusually tired, his face was very pale, his lips were not of any color, his cheeks were unusually flushed, and he had a feeling of serious illness.
It turns out that he is Ji Liu.
Ji Liu looked at Liu Xiaohua, his eyes were unusually calm.
"Bold!" The beauties beside him scolded Liu Xiaohua, "How dare you look directly at Gongzi!" ”
Liu Xiaohua carefully withdrew her gaze and lowered her eyes. But my heart was beating wildly. He only hoped that his face was too dirty, and he didn't recognize it.
The beauty was unrelenting, and said to Ji Liujiao: "Childe, this pariah is really rude, when he came to see Childe, he didn't even clean his face, and the blood stain on his face even dared to look directly at Childe!" ”
Ji Liu was good-tempered, and said softly to his own love Ji: "There was just a fight, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid I would have been assassinated." Turning his head to Liu Xiaohua and asking, "I heard that it was thanks to you that I was able to escape today." ”
Liu Xiaohua hurriedly said: "The little woman doesn't dare to take credit. ”
Ji Gongzi said lightly: "I have always had clear grievances. You have saved me because you have been gracious to me, and what are you afraid of? Say, what reward do you want? ”
At this time, the beauty spoke: "Childe! The guards in charge of my brother have always been brave and invincible, enough to block a hundred, and today there are only a few dozen people on the other side, so there is nothing to be afraid of! This slut just wants to take advantage of the chaos to invite rewards. If that's all it takes, that's it, give her a few dollars, and send her away just as a son to accumulate virtue and do good. But because of her selfish desires, she cut off the curse rope that imprisoned people and animals, and let Gongzi owe these favors in vain, and these animals that she finally bought had to be released, which made Gongzi suffer heavy losses. If you don't cut her with a thousand knives, it's really not enough to calm her anger! ”
When she said this, she cried in a low voice, "Once the people and animals are released, where will the elixir come from?" I'm afraid Childe's illness won't be cured. As long as she thinks that the concubine will not be able to accompany her son in the future, and the little son in the womb will not be blessed to call her son Daddy, the concubine will be heartbroken...... Childe - Childe! If you're gone, how will my little boy and I deal with ourselves! He fell into Ji Liu's arms and wept sadly.
After listening to her words, Ji Liugongzi sighed and laughed faintly, his voice was short. looked at Liu Xiaohua, gently stroked the beauty's green silk, and said, "Listening to your words, it seems that there is some truth." ”
Liu Xiaohua was shocked when she heard it. This woman, isn't she accusing herself of killing Ji Liu. Hurriedly said: "Childe, wronged! I saw that Childe's guards were defeated, so I asked those people to help Childe. And I didn't untie their ropes. By the time I arrived, they had untied their ropes and were ready to flee. If I hadn't dissuaded them, they would have been gone long ago. ”
The beauty immediately said sharply: "That's a curse rope, even if they have some cultivation, but being suppressed by the curse rope is no different from ordinary people, with their own strength, how can they untie it!" You've got to help! ”
Liu Xiaohua didn't let it go at all, stared at her with her head held high and asked: "The girl said it well, then I don't even have cultivation, how can I untie any curse rope with my own strength?!" ”
Beauty knotted: "You! He turned his head and cried to Ji Liugongzi, "Childe, look at her, her teeth are sharp and her mouth is sharp!" I will excuse myself! In front of Childe, there is no awe at all, and he openly despises Childe's prestige! ”
Liu Xiaohua immediately said to Ji Liu: "I don't know this girl, and I have never had any deep hatred, but I don't know why this girl has repeatedly framed me?" I just want to save my son, is this the case, will I be hated by the girl? ”
The beauty was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said to Ji Liugongzi: "Childe......" Her eyes were extremely frightened.
"Alright." Ji Liu sighed, "One or two of you, the quarrel hurts my brain." ”
The beauty glanced at Liu Xiaohua, turned her head and said to Ji Liugongzi with concern: "Childe, concubine help Gongzi rub it." It's all concubines, because I feel sorry for the son, so I have a few more words. Damn it! ”
Ji Liu closed his eyes and let the beauty rub the corners of his forehead for himself. It took a while for the frown to loosen slightly. He opened his eyes again, looked at Liu Xiaohua who was standing in place and didn't move, thought for a while and said, "One of you said that my guards can be one enemy and ten, and they are not afraid of these assassins at all. One said that my guards were invincible, and that I was in danger of my life. I don't know which of you is right or wrong. He turned his head to one of the guards standing beside him with his head down and said, "Ji An, you can tell me." ”
The guard took a step forward, bowed down and said, "Childe's personal guards are naturally the bravest in the world. ”
Liu Xiaohua felt bad. Glancing at the guard.
The guard snapped and drew his sword at his waist.
The sword is all yellow as gold, and it is carved with gorgeous and complex patterns, and it looks so luxurious "When we entered the southwest land, we were strictly ordered by Gongzi not to use the cultivation technique. Later, he was forced to eat the forbidden pill, saying that it was to ensure that Childe's orders would not be disobeyed. ”
When the beauty heard this, her expression was slightly uneasy. Hurriedly glanced at Ji Liugongzi, and saw that he was just silent, and he was not angry because he heard about the forbidden pill, so he felt a little more at ease. Looking at the guard's eyes, it was a little more vicious.
"We understand that we can't use the cultivation technique because we are afraid that someone will track it down and expose the whereabouts of Childe. However, in the face of such a dangerous situation...... Not only are we forbidden to cultivate, but we only have such outward things in our hands! As he spoke, he held the sword and slammed it hard, and the body of the sword was broken in two! Then, he tore off his shirt again, grabbed the black armor on his body and tore it, and the black armor on his entire chest collapsed. "How can I protect my son?"
The beauty, with an exclamation of surprise, looked at the person in front of her in astonishment.
The guard, who was called Ji An, looked at her coldly, threw the broken sword and armor in his hand in front of her, and said loudly to Ji Liugong: "Since the son has favored this daughter, his relatives in the house have all held important positions, however, this daughter's father and brother are stupid and greedy by nature, and after being promoted by the son, they act extravagantly and only know how to enjoy themselves. Just by borrowing the forbidden pill, he collected a lot of money from the guards, and everything only required luxury, only the appearance was not practical, so that the samurai guards lost all their cultivation in their chests, there were no sharp weapons in their hands, no thick armor on their bodies, and dozens of people were killed and injured in a melee, which was really hateful! Please give this woman to death, calm the soul of the deceased, and cut off the root of the evil! ”
The beauty's face turned pale, her lips trembled, and she said loudly, "You, you are talking nonsense!" That forbidden medicine is my father's sake, I am afraid that you will forget the child's advice for a while, expose the whereabouts of the child, and harm the child. ”
Ji An didn't look at her, but just looked at Ji Liugongzi and said loudly: "We have been following Gongzi since we were children, and we have always been disciplined by Gongzi. Childe said south, we will not go to the north, Childe said sit, even if we die, we will never stand. Since Childe has ordered us not to use the cultivation technique, as long as Childe is safe, even if the enemy's sword is on our neck, we are willing to die and will never use it. Why did you sell the forbidden pill to the guards at a high price, and force us to obey it in the name of the son, you know it in your own heart! ”
At this time, Ji Liugongzi raised his eyes and looked at the beauty, "What is the reason for the forbidden pill?" ”
"This ...... This ...... "beauty hides her face and cries bitterly" The concubine is dead, and she doesn't dare to indulge her father and brother in doing anything wrong! Since the concubine was given to the son, she has served the son wholeheartedly, and would rather harm her own life than hurt the son. Please check it out with Childe. This forbidden pill matter, conniving is the fault of the father and brother, and it is just a lack of thought, and it will never be because of selfish desires. It's really for the sake of Gongzi, for fear that they will reveal Gongzi's whereabouts, so they will be made to eat the forbidden pill...... Nothing else! ”
The delicate and sad voice really made Liu Xiaohua's heart soften. For the first time, she knew that women could cry so beautifully.
Ji Liugongzi, who was sitting on the brocade carpet, still had a gentle expression on his face, and asked calmly: "It seems that Ji An misunderstood you." ”
The beauty hurriedly said, "Exactly! ”
"It turns out that you and your father and brother are such loyal people." Ji Liugongzi sighed.
The beauty knelt down, thanking Ji Liu's forgiveness to herself, and glanced at Ji An proudly, and said with a crying voice, "Exactly." ”
"Where's the antidote?"
"Yes, in the eight treasure chests I carry with me!" The beauty hurriedly said.
Ji signaled, and a guard walked out quickly. Soon. So he brought a small chest full of gems.
The beauty hurriedly opened. Take out a small purse from inside, "It's all in it." ”
Ji asked the guards who had found something to eat one. The guard glanced at Ji An and swallowed it in one gulp.
After a while, his face turned red and his whole body was steaming. With a wave of his hand, he actually broke a towering tree dozens of feet away. Xiang Ji Liugongzi said happily, "There is no mistake. ”
Ji Liu ordered him to distribute it.
The beauty breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that her own business was all right.
Ji Liugongzi sighed, "That position, it seems that you and your father and brother took the initiative to ask for it." On that day, I asked you, will you be able to do your duty faithfully and shoulder the heavy responsibility? You knelt down with your father and brother and agreed with a smile on your face. I swear that I will live up to my expectations. Now, the guards I have trained myself have suffered heavy casualties because of your father's and brother's advocacy. This sword was forged by your father and brother, and the medicine was made by your father and brother, and this armor was made by your father and brother. These people have followed me for many years, and even when they were on the top of the foothills, they didn't die as many people as they do today. But because you talked so much with your father and brother, you died. If I do not punish you today, how can I serve the people? ”
As he spoke, he waved his hand, and immediately a guard who was with him stepped forward and dragged the beauty away.
The beauty was shocked, she never expected things to be like this, and broke away from the guards and rushed towards Ji Liu: "Childe! Son! Can...... But that day, my father and brother and I just said, 'Swear to live up to the trust of my son', this, this sentence is just ...... It's just ......" she wanted to say, but it was just a casual sentence of thanksgiving!
But before he could spit out another word, he was rushed up to the stand by the guards and covered his mouth.
She kicked her legs desperately, struggling to stare at Ji Liugongzi. A look of disbelief. I can't believe that the son who loves him so much would suddenly become so ruthless. In this way, to put it mildly, like discarding a useless thing, throwing away oneself. He, didn't he say that he couldn't sleep without pillowing her jade arm? And kids! The child in her belly! How could he be so offended!
The unwilling beauty tried her best to break it, bit the guard's hand and shouted, "Childe, I am a gift from the great sect master of the Qingming Sect!" If I die, how will you explain to the Sect Master! How to explain to the immortals of the Qingming Sect? ”
Ji Liugongzi waved his hand, and the guard didn't cover her mouth anymore.
A glimmer of hope ignited in the beauty's eyes.
Ji Liugongzi looked at the beauty in front of him with a compassionate gaze, sighed, and said to her, "You are worried that I will not be able to explain to the great sect master, it is better to worry about the great sect master, how can he explain to me, how can he explain to the Holy Emperor?" I almost died in the southwest today because of you. There are a total of thirty-nine guards around me, and all of these thirty-nine people were given to me by His Majesty the Holy Emperor, and they have followed me for many years. Twenty people died today. It's all because of you and your father and brother that I am in danger and have suffered heavy losses! When the Great Sect Master gave you to me, he asked you to serve me, not to kill me! ”
The beauty was stunned, and then thought of something, and immediately exclaimed, "But, but I have a child's child in my womb!" Son! You just hate me, innocent child! ”
At this time, Ji An was a little moved. He raised his eyes and glanced at the beauty quickly, his expression very angry. hurriedly glanced at Ji Liugongzi again. The look is very complicated. may have thought that his brother's dead soul would eventually be unable to find comfort, and his expression was slightly melancholy.
But he didn't expect that Ji Liugongzi just waved his hand, "Take it away." ”
The guard was stunned for a moment, and immediately stuffed the beauty's mouth. I'm afraid I've had enough of the anger of this woman and her family, so I grabs her hair unceremoniously and drags her to the side. The woman, who was stumbling and beating on the ground, was suddenly covered with dirty slush.
Ji Liugongzi watched the desperately struggling woman being dragged away, and muttered, "Child? You, it's useless for anyone to call you Daddy, just be the one who is Daddy for me, and take care of the sins of these heroic spirits. Your daddy is sorry for them. ”
Ji An was stunned for a moment, and the iron-beaten man's eyes couldn't help but moisten, and he shouted "Childe ......"
Ji Liugongzi closed his eyes and waved his hand, telling him not to say any more.
Ji An gritted her teeth and knelt down sharply. Shouting "Die for the son!" Everyone else was like him. knelt down to Ji Liugongzi. With tears in his eyes, he shouted, "Die for the son." ”
Liu Xiaohua looked at this qiē silently, wishing that she didn't have zài.
Ji Liugongzi was very sentimental and asked those people to get up. Say to them, "Go." ”
The merfolk left under the tree. Go to the people and animals in the distance.
When they were all gone, Ji Liugongzi turned his head to Liu Xiaohua, who was trying to reduce his sense of self-existence, looked over, and asked her, "Do you think you should be rewarded?" ”
Liu Xiaohua didn't dare to look at him.
"You're afraid of me?" Ji Liugongzi smiled.
Liu Xiaohua opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but found that her mouth was dry, and she swallowed her saliva before saying, "Childe understands righteousness and has nothing to fear." ”
When Ji Liugongzi heard her say this, he laughed and said, "You little girl, since I saw you, there has not been a word of truth in my mouth." I don't know what kind of people taught it. ”
Liu Xiaohua hurriedly bowed, "I've seen Childe." Of course, I knew that I had already been recognized by him. It's just that he didn't say it. hurriedly explained, "I don't have a good memory, and my son doesn't recognize him when he changes his clothes." What's more, I only saw Childe, but I didn't see the little brother, so I wasn't sure it was Childe. ”
"He." Ji Liugongzi flicked his sleeves and said, "At first glance, he was quite clever, but later he became more and more unusable." I don't raise useless people. After speaking, he smiled at Liu Xiaohua and said, "It's thanks to you." ”
Liu Xiaohua's heart sank. That...... That boy can't be, die!
Thanks to yourself?
She didn't mean to kill him! With a glimmer of hope, he hurriedly said, "Where are people born smart?" Even if Childe thinks he is unusable, as long as he is carefully adjusted, he must agree. ”
Ji Liugongzi nodded: "You can tell you that there is some truth." ”
Liu Xiaohua breathed a sigh of relief.
Ji Liugongzi regretted: "It's too late." ”
Liu Xiaohua only felt that her shoulders were heavy. A living person, just because of his own words, just like that, is gone? Shocked and a little dazed.
Ji Liugongzi beckoned to her.
She took three anxious steps forward.
Ji Liugongzi beckoned again.
She took two more steps.
Ji Liugongzi laughed, "You sit here." I'll have to look up when I talk to you like that. I'm really tired, don't you toss me anymore, okay. "It's very gentle.
Liu Xiaohua couldn't help but blush, peeked at him, and carefully sat on the edge of the brocade carpet.
Ji Liugongzi looked at where she was sitting and smiled, but he didn't say anything more, but asked, "How did you convince those people?" ”
Liu Xiaohua became vigilant for a moment, and said again and again, "Xiao Yi is righteous." ”
Ji Liugongzi looked up to the sky and laughed, "In your life, do you have a word of truth?" ”
Liu Xiaohua was very embarrassed. Hurriedly said: "I told them that Gongzi is a great and good person, as long as they help Gongzi get out of trouble, Gongzi will reward them with what they dream of." Eli seduces each other. At this time, she wanted to get the description of Ji Liugongzi by people and animals.
They say that Ji Liugongzi is a bad person. She couldn't tell if Ji Liu was such a hateful and hateful villain, but she knew that Ji Liu must not be a simple character. Some of them became worried about the human and animal animals.
"I didn't want to buy them." Ji Liugongzi said lightly: "But they are the people of the former prince." I thought, send a kindness once. After all, the former crown prince ......... He's a good boy. Even if they didn't save me, I would have let them go. What does the struggle between the masters have to do with these subordinates? ”
Liu Xiaohua was stunned. This......
It was suddenly difficult to decide. If she sues Ji Liu, these people have bad intentions, and Ji Liu's personality will definitely make them die a good death. But if she didn't say it, Ji Liu and the people Ji Liu brought with her would die in the riot.
She hesitated and secretly glanced at Ji Liugongzi again. I really have some doubts in my heart, is what Ji Liu said sincerely, or is it ...... Liu Xiaohua knows that there are no real words in his mouth, but can he believe the words that come out of his mouth? ! Really, fifty steps, a hundred laughs.
Liu Xiaohua is struggling. But I heard a sound of footsteps.
Ji An came back and said, "These people are in a hurry to get the papers. The more noisy it is, the more fierce it becomes. But the official paper on our carriage has been burned. ”
Liu Xiaohua immediately stood up and said, "Why don't you let me go and talk to them." ”
These guards have already recovered their cultivation techniques. Those people and animals were not imprisoned by the curse, and now their abilities may have been restored, right? If you want to fight, it's really uncertain. But if Ji Liugongzi really let them go, there would be no reason for the two sides to fight at all.
What's more, they hated Ji Liugongzi for buying them, so much so that when they 'went to meet', they killed their relatives. However, even if it wasn't Ji Liugongzi, it would be bought by someone else, and their wives and children would still die. Ji Liugongzi bought it out of the heart of wanting to save them. It's like someone chasing them and some of their relatives died on the way to escape. Was it wrong for the man who took them to flee?
If it were true, they could only hate those who would frame their master and condemn them.
If it is here, it is really unnecessary to consume it with irrelevant people.
Ji Liugongzi just glanced at her and ordered Ji An: "Kill them." ”
