Yan Eighteen said these words, every word, every sentence, were from the bottom of his heart and moved his true feelings.

Therefore, when these past events that were sealed in the depths of his memory, one by one, were dug out one by one, they finally touched the string in his own heart.

Originally, because of the dispute with Han Ning, he had a slight upper hand, and he became in a good mood, but he fell down in such an instant.

The best things in Yan Eighteen's life were all ended because of the Jiangnan imperial examination five times more than ten years ago.

Being expelled from the family is actually not a fatal injury, because his grandfather had already talked to him beforehand, and this expulsion was just an act for people to see.

After this limelight is over, he will hand over all the family's property to him to take care of, and in the future, he can rely on the lifeblood in his hand to be the actual ruler of the Yan family hidden in the dark.

But the problem is that this play for others is so real that Yan Eighteen's fiancée's family also thinks that Yan Eighteen is completely destroyed.

With Yan Eighteen's original status and appearance, how can his fiancée be an unknown person, this is also the first talented woman in Jiangzhou City!

At that time, the eldest granddaughter of Huo Taishou in Jiangzhou City, Huo Xiaoying.

Huo Taishou saw that Yan's family room had completely lost power, and the marriage that could bring him huge benefits before had become a big joke.

Should he keep his promise and marry his granddaughter to the son of the sect who was exiled by the family? Or do you want to dissolve the marriage contract, give your granddaughter who has both ability and integrity, and then find another son-in-law?

Huo Taishou, who is realistic and philistine, is not too entangled at all. asked people to go to the Yan family to withdraw from the marriage, and they didn't even inform the party Huo Xiaoying.

When this poor girl, knowing that she had divorced her fiancé before she knew it, she cried, protested, went on a hunger strike, and exhausted all her tricks, but she failed to impress her grandfather, who was as cold and hard as a stone.

The last one is desperate. Deeply in love with Yan Eighteen's official daughter. chose one, which in her opinion was the last way out.

She wrapped up her valuable jewelry and secretly left the house, intending to find Yan Eighteen. The two eloped.

When Yan Eighteen was so down. The woman he loved would rather turn his back on her home. didn't choose to betray him, what else could Yan 18 want?

When even packed his bags and took Huo Xiaoying to leave Jiangnan and flee to the north. Find a place where no one knows them, and live a quiet life that belongs only to the two of them.

It's a pity that there are very few things like elopement that have a good ending, Huo Taishou lost the young lady at home, this is simply a force that has sent out the city, and searched for people all over the mountains!

As a result, it was naturally the end of Huo Xiaoying's arrest that she was taken back to the Huo family, in order to let her grandfather let Yan 18 go, Huo Xiaoying compromised and exchanged her marriage for Yan 18's freedom.

If this is really the ending of this pair of bitter mandarin ducks, it is actually quite good.

It's a pity that Huo Xiaoying, an infatuated woman, has been living for a year, but on the day of marriage, she committed suicide by taking poison on the big red wedding bed!

After this blow, the pain of cutting out the heart and bones, Yan Shibai has no extra feelings, he is still alive and not dead, just to keep his breath and go against Xuanping Hou.

Only every time he causes trouble to Xuanping Hou, the big enemy who caused him to lose everything, he will be happy.

Whether it's a big trouble or a small trouble, anyway, as long as the Xuanping Marquis Mansion is not going well, his heart that is tormented by pain can alleviate the pain a little.

However, with the appearance of Qi Xuanhui and his party, the sudden appearance of his old friend Gao Dengshan finally broke the sad situation that was eternal and unchanging, shrouded in black fog and disappointment.

Yan Shiba, who originally relied on the belief in revenge to be able to struggle to survive day after day, this outlaw who had no scruples and even wanted to die early and survive early, was like seeing a ray of hope in the endless darkness.

Yan Eighteen saw a different shining point in Gao Dengshan's body, and it was also a shining point that touched his heart abnormally.

If you really want to talk about who has the deepest enmity with Xuanping Hou, if Gao Dengshan is second, no one dares to compete with him for the first place.

The Gao family will be a first-class family in the south of the Yangtze River, and the Yan family can't compete with it, and Gao Dengshan himself is regarded as a champion talent, although there is a sought after component in it, but it also shows how favored Gao Dengshan is.

Fortunately, the two of them have always played and have been friends since childhood, so they didn't let people see a wonderful Yuliang dispute.

But the Xuanping Hou showed weakness, and with a thunderous blow that had been planned for many years, it could make a Gao family of Nuoda fall apart in an instant.

It is said in name that it was Gao Dengshan who scattered all his family wealth and left his homeland gloomily, but in reality, it was the dead soldiers of the Gao family who gambled with their lives and paved the road with blood, which sent Gao Dengshan to escape on the boat.

Yan 18 still remembers the scene of the Gao family's old Fengjun doing his 60th birthday, at that time, no matter how many guests there were, there were more than 20 men in the Gao family.

But now, only Gao Dengshan and one of his cousins are left, and the rest are all gone.

The Yan family was rectified, and only Yan 18 and them had one room, and the saddest thing was only him, Yan 18.

As for the Yan family, because of the decisiveness of the ancestors of the Yan family, not only did it not decay, but later completely replaced the position of the Gao family and became the leading family in Jiangnan.

If it weren't for the painstaking management of the ancestors of the Yan family, why would he have fought against Xuanping Hou so far?

But more than ten years have passed, and Gao Dengshan, who has been adrift for so many years, has set foot on the boundary of Jiangzhou again.

If he was not completely sure, he would never have returned to Jiangnan.

For others, this place may be a beautiful scenery and the most suitable place for travel, but for him Gao Dengshan, it is a dangerous place within a dangerous situation, and there is nothing else but a dead end.

Nearly twenty years have made each of them a lot of changes when they are young, and Yan Shibai has long known that he has fallen into boundless darkness.

The original kindness and brightness also died with Huo Xiaoying. Anyway, in him, in addition to conspiracy, it is trickery, in order to take revenge, he can cooperate with the murderous bandits, do you say he still has morality?

Originally, he thought in his heart, in a place he didn't know, Gao Dengshan must have been thinking about revenge day and night, and the reason why this person disappeared was either driven crazy by hatred, or he died of illness due to hard work.

But this old friend after the reunion. But it made Yan Shibada feel surprised from the bottom of his heart. This man was not ruined by hatred, nor was he driven mad by hatred, or blackened by the inkpot like he was.

Because of the precipitation of the years, Gao Dengshan has become smoother. The one who used to love everything more seriously. I have to talk to people about a stinky temper. I can't see it at all.

After two nights of candlelight talks, what Yan 18 saw was that he was patient. Gao Dengshan, who had courage, wisdom in speech and tenacity in his mind, gave him too many surprises in two days and two nights.

They didn't dwell on the past all the time, and Gao Dengshan didn't pull him, everyone reminisced about the past together, hated together, and cursed the culprit.

After asking him about the general situation, except for crying for the fierce Huo Xiaoying, he spent most of the remaining time telling him how he stepped into the capital.

After dispersing all his family wealth and trying to go to the officialdom to avenge his family, how did Gao Dengshan take the only remaining five hundred taels of silver to buy goods, and began to ride a camel to the Western Regions and take a sea ship to the South Seas for more than ten years.

With an extraordinary enthusiasm, Gao Shan told him the anecdotes of those journeys.

It tells the story of those blue-eyed, yellow-haired foreigners, those singing iron boxes, and those who fought to the death against the storm in the endless sea.

Tell me how the bare-chested orchids had won a shell with a black pearl the size of a pigeon's egg for ten taels of silver.

Just as Gao Dengshan was talking with nostalgia on his face and yearning for his eyes, Yan Shibai suddenly felt that he could figure it out.

Why did he and Gao Dengshan both suffer a ruthless blow from the same thing, and Gao Dengshan, a person who has suffered a lot of losses, lives more like a person than him, a dignified person who can walk in the sun?!

All because he has been trapped in the square area of Jiangzhou City for all these years, he only has the dead Huo Xiaoying in his heart, and he only has Xuanping Hou who caused him to end up like this.

Because the hatred of losing his lover is difficult to eliminate, and because of the anger in the face of the enemy, he looks down on everything, as if overthrowing Xuanping Hou is everything in his life!

But Gao Dengshan is different, he travels around, he walks too many places, sees too many people and things, his mind is broad-minded, and his talent makes him crazy to absorb all kinds of knowledge.

After so many years of precipitation, finally, the opportunity came, and Gao Dengshan, who had done more than ten years of preparations, did not hesitate at all, made a desperate bet, and firmly grasped this best opportunity to take revenge.

Don't look at Gao Dengshan as a human being compared to him, but he still needs the same need, seeing the complete collapse of the Xuanping Marquis Mansion, he can get the complete peace of mind that belongs to him.

These days, Yan Shibai has been thinking about it, and he is desperately thinking, how should he go on the road ahead?

It is also revenge and seeking justice for the dead relatives, but there is suddenly one more way to go.

And this extra one is not only much wider and smoother than the original path full of thorns, but also has more hope for life than the previous dead road.

Faced with such a big and strong temptation, Yan Eighteen couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

At that time, he and the other people of the higher and higher benevolent countries agreed to go to the government examination in a high spirit, and they were only seventeen or eighteen years old at that time.

Yan 18 still remembers that he was nineteen years old when he was released from prison, and now he is not yet forty years old!

He still has a few years to live, is he really going to stick to it like this?

Why can't we live differently?

He couldn't help but yearn that one day he could ride a camel that he had never seen before, embark on a full trade route to the mysterious Western Regions, and see the customs of that foreign country for himself.

He also fantasized more than once that he could take a four-story ship and ride the wind and waves in the magnificent sea that was endless and full of dangers.

If you don't have to fight to the death, you can see the real chapter, and you don't need to burn jade to get results.

There is no fish to die in the net, and there is nothing to say that he must die, so does it mean that he Yan 18 can have the opportunity to do what he wants to do in person?

Gao Dengshan's words that touched him the most were like this, "You Yan Eighteen, you have lived for others for most of your life, you are busy and miserable, carrying the death of Miss Huo and the hatred of all your fellow disciples and brothers. ”

"I think you've done well enough, this mountain-like pressure hasn't crushed you yet, you actually gritted your teeth and carried it like this!"

"I only have full admiration for you, and there is one question I want to ask the most - eighteen, why can't you live for yourself for ten years?"

When the torment reaches a certain point, people will jump with all their might, like the dying fish, just to seek complete liberation.

Why did Yan Eighteen make up his mind to bear the shameless infamy and form an alliance with the Jiang bandit Shui Lilong?

Isn't he tossing others and himself like this just to get a result?

No matter what the outcome is, whether it is good or bad, dead or alive, he can be liberated from it, and he will never worry about it.

Yan Eighteen originally set the place for this trip in Qionghua Mountain, but he was indeed a little cautious, and he did not leave a way back for himself.

Everything depends on the situation to decide what to do, if he wants to stay, he can take Qi Xuanhui and them to capture that rare strange beast alive.

If he wanted to go, hehe, where he sacrificed hundreds of lives to explore the way, only to find the legendary tomb of Xuanping Hou.

Here, he didn't have too much thought, the terrain was very familiar, it could be said that as long as Yan Shibai was willing, he could smoothly disappear from Qi Xuanhui and them at any time.

Due to the complexity of the terrain, Yan Shibai said with certainty that even if Qi Xuanhui knew that there was a problem in the mountain, it would be difficult for them to find a place and get a glimpse of it.

As for when the time comes, whether Qi Xuanhui and his party will go back the same way, or go deeper and get a glimpse of the whole picture, it is not something he can control.

But now, under a fierce ideological struggle, after getting along with old friends day and night, talking.

Yan Eighteen's mind became more and more inclined, 'I'll fight for myself too, how about it?' ’

From Gao Dengshan's words, he could see that this friend was taking pity on his plight and wanted to push himself hard to seek a promising future.

The blueprint that Gao Dengshan described to him was too beautiful, too tattered and magnificent, and Yan Eighteen finally couldn't resist the yearning for freedom.

He finally decided to give himself a chance, a chance to change his appearance and start anew! (To be continued......)
