Chapter 319: In the Name of the Sword
In this world, some things are just so unfair. Chu Jiangmian could cut off Shi Yi's arm with a sword, but Shi Yi wanted revenge to kill him, but it was not so easy.
King Zhao, who was highly poisoned in his body, naturally did not have such a great ability to continue the fight unharmed. After all, he was a man, not a god. At this moment, he is isolated and trapped in Zichen Palace, in addition to waiting to be killed, it can be said that he should not be able to call the heavens and the earth.
However, everyone just ignored that there was another person who had been not far from him, and that was Gongzi Jiao. The royal nobleman, who was still hesitating and watching from the sidelines, finally ignited the blood in his heart after seeing Chu Jiangmian fall to the ground poisoned and spurting blood from his mouth.
Those past situations involuntarily passed by in front of their eyes. Once upon a time, between the smiles and conversations, the pictures of Zhao Wang explaining various life principles to him were so profound. Those who have cleared the clouds and suddenly realized, those who have realized the joy of realizing a realm that he has never seen before, those who let him know the value of life in the ordinary...... All these things do not need to be remembered, nor should they be forgotten.
Therefore, when Gongzi Jie saw the figure with infinite murderous aura rushing over, he no longer hesitated, the long sword was unsheathed, and he stepped forward, directly blocking Chu Jiangmian with his body. A pair of eyes radiated a determined light, no matter the sword mountain and sword rain, he would never retreat half a step.
Shi Yi was in mid-air, surrounded by a huge momentum, and he could immediately kill Chu Jiang and sleep under his palm. However, in the next moment, he had to suddenly retract his momentum, and his body fell straight down. Because he saw Gongzi standing upright in front of him, if he wanted to kill Chu Jiangmian, he would inevitably hurt him first.
"Childe, please step aside!"
The pain of a broken arm is not trivial. Even a master like Shi Yi was pale and unbearable in pain. He stared at Chu Jiangmian tightly with a sinister gaze, waved his hand, and motioned for Gongzi to dodge away.
The other party shook his head firmly. Childe's body is very thin, and the sword in his hand doesn't seem to have much weight. But he just stood there, one man and one sword, protecting the person behind him, with a look of contempt between his eyebrows.
"If you want to kill him, you must kill me first!"
Whether it was Shi Yi, Shi Jia, or Chun Yuxian, Lu Qi and the other noble ministers, they all looked at Gongzi in surprise, almost doubting that the person in front of them was still the somewhat cowardly royal prince in the past.
"Childe, do you know what you're doing? Don't get out of the way yet, lest it spoil a big deal!"
Chun Yuxian stepped forward in a few steps, his tone full of sternness. He never expected that Gongzi would stand up at this time and openly protect Chu Jiangmian. What happened to this nephew who grew up under his nose? If you insist on maintaining Chu Jiangmian, it will be a ghost and incorrigible!
There was not a hint of a smile on Childe's face. He lowered his eyelids and didn't look at anyone. The sword in his hand, held tightly, flashed coldly.
"I've grown up and I know what I'm supposed to do. Uncle doesn't have to worry about it! If you really regard me as the son of today, the noble son of the Great Zhou royal family, then agree to my request and let King Zhao leave! ”
He was in a pleading tone though. But everyone heard the resoluteness. Chun Yuxian's face changed greatly. He sensed that something was going on out of his mind. Childe, who has always been obedient to himself, has become so stubborn. Moreover, on the premise that Ji Yuan, the Son of Heaven, had already expressed his meaning to him, he still dared to do this, which was enough to show that in the past few years in Zhao State, he must have been seriously bewitched by Chu Jiangmian. It's just that if he wants to rely on his own strength to let Chu Jiangmian leave safely, it is too much to take for granted!
It took so much effort and so many people were killed and wounded. Don't say that Lu Qi, the king of the Southern Han Dynasty, is unwilling to give up. Even the royal nobles who have put all the future of the family on this major matter will never compromise. Not to mention the waiters A and B, who were already waiting impatiently.
"What kind of sword is this sword? It was able to hurt my old brother...... Chu Jiangmian, don't think you can escape today!"
While helping Shi Yi bandage the wound first, Shi Jia glanced at Chu Jiangmian's sword. He is really a little incomprehensible, even if it is a sword, it is difficult to hurt the deep cultivation of Shi Yi. However, why was Chu Jiangmian able to seriously injure him?
Chu Jiangmian held the ground with his sword, barely supporting his half-kneeling and half-sitting body. Looking at the son who was blocking in front of him, he sighed. Then he replied in an indifferent tone.
"This sword doesn't have a name yet. But now it has ...... Naruto Sword!"
Others have not yet understood the meaning of this sentence. And Gongzi Jie felt a pain in his heart. He knew that the young guard who had died was named Xie Mingren. Obviously, Chu Jiangmian took the name of the sword to commemorate his loyalty.
"Humph! At all costs...... Chu Jiangmian, you are going to die this time!"
Squire A patted Squire B on the shoulder, the two of them are one, and he will naturally avenge the other party. Then, step by step, he walked over, his face gloomy and his eyes fierce.
"I said that if you want to kill King Zhao, you must first kill me!"
Childe straightened his chest and faced the opponent's irresistible momentum, but he didn't take a step back. The squire was unmoved. He didn't believe that Gongzi would dare to stop him. If he really wants to forcibly block it, then he has a hundred ways to subdue it first.
"Childe, don't do useless work. You can't save him!"
However, before this old waiter with unfathomable martial arts cultivation could make the next move, Gongzi Jie had already made a move before him. And what the other party did was unexpected and surprising. I saw a flash of sword light, which had penetrated several inches into the left rib.
"You can go on, old fellow! Here you go! With every step you take, I stab myself...... The same goes for everyone else! Hahaha!"
Childe looked directly at everyone and drew his sword casually. Blood was dripping from the blade, and he looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he didn't feel any pain at all. It turned out that his method was not to kill, but to kill himself with a sword! Countless eyes that saw it with their own eyes showed a sense of shock. Perhaps, they have heard of or seen many vicious people who kill people with very ferocious methods. But it's the first time I've seen someone who kills and injures himself like this noble son in front of him!
"Childe! What are you doing? Hurry up and stop, don't hurt your body at will! ”
Watching that sword go down, blood immediately gushed out. Chun Yuxian, the old man, was anxious for a moment. Putting aside his feelings of watching Gongzi Jie grow up since he was a child, he only said that the operation launched in front of him was one of the important chess pieces. If he dies, then the conspiracy he planned will lose its meaning. What's more, Ji Yuan, the Son of Heaven, has personally selected Gongzi as the heir of the dynasty. Therefore, his identity is extremely important, and there must be no accidents.
"Second sword!"
Unexpectedly, Chun Yuxian was about to rush over and grab his arm. Gongzijiao's voice came, and he did not hesitate to stab another sword into the right rib. In the midst of an exclamation, Chun Yuxian stopped, his face changed several times, even if he was scheming, he also felt that the situation in front of him was a little tricky, and he didn't know what to do. And the two people, Squire A and Squire B, shot out hateful and angry eyes in their eyes, but they had to stop for the time being. After all, they are loyal old waiters who have been waiting by the side of the Son of Heaven for decades, and they can ignore other things. But if he really forced Gongzi to death here, then he couldn't go back and explain to Ji Yuan, the Son of Heaven. Because, they accepted the task of monitoring and protecting this royal nobleman, but they did not send him to death in this way.
The four sides are at an impasse. Lu Qi, the king of the Southern Han Dynasty, opened his mouth, he actually wanted to say that killing Chu Jiangmian was the first priority! Everyone should focus on the overall situation and don't get entangled with the son. However, looking at the solemn faces of the others, he had to swallow back the words that came to his lips. After all, this is Los Angeles, not his Guangling. It's better to wait and see what happens, and then wait for the opportunity to act.
"Why bother? If you die because of me, I will live my life!"
Chu Jiangmian whispered behind him, there was a lot of emotion in his voice, and there was endless compassion. And Gongzi just smiled miserably and pressed down the blood gushing up his throat. replied helplessly.
"My ability is limited, so I can only fight for my life!"
In this world, the so-called heroic spirit does not depend on the level of status, let alone the size of ability and cultivation. There is blood in the chest, thorns in the bones, that's all!
What else can Chu Jiangmian say about such a friend? He wiped the blood from his mouth and laughed.
"Alright! In this case, whether we live or die, we will all be brothers from now on!"
Zhao Wang Yinuo is heavier than Mount Tai. There are not many people in this world who are qualified to receive his promise. Childe stuck a sword in his ribs, it was enough!
Chun Yuxian is worthy of being a person who sees the opportunity very quickly. He rolled his eyes, discussed a few words with Lu Qi and the others, and quickly reached a consensus. So, he waved his hand and glanced at Waiter A and Waiter B. Then he said to Childe.
"Childe has a heavy responsibility, don't hurt yourself anymore! Well, we promise you that King Zhao will not be harmed. However, he can't leave for the time being...... Please stay here for now! ”
Childe secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew in his heart that this was already the most lenient condition that could be obtained. However, as long as there is room to turn around, there will be a chance to help Chu Jiangmian get out.
"Good! I'd like to be here with him...... I only hope that you will keep your promises. ”
So, a moment later, the palace of singing and dancing fell silent. Everyone else withdrew. Surrounded by heavy troops, it is difficult for birds to cross!
King Zhao, who was poisoned, looked at Gongzi Jiao, who was injured by the sword on both ribs, and he finally exhaled the breath of support, lay on the ground with his back facing the sky, closed his eyes and said with a wry smile.
"Die and die...... But I don't know if Bai Ye escaped? ”
