Volume 1 Dust Chaos Chapter 51 The Aftermath of the Catastrophe
"What sound?" Yan Xi's whole person tensed instantly, and he looked towards the jungle vigilantly.
The louder the roar, the more shrill the birds' chirping, the dark clouds gathered towards the place, the sky was gray and gloomy, and the two of them were short of breath.
"Is it a wolf?"
It wasn't a wolf, Yi Ming arched his back, the voice wasn't a beast, but it wasn't a human either, he had never heard it before.
Bang bang bang –
There was another terrifying roar, and the ground beneath his feet hummed and shook as several towering trees fell.
"Let's go," Yan Xi couldn't care so much, he directly picked up Yi Ming and turned around and ran, more and more trees fell behind him, like a desperate wolf, showing its fangs behind him.
Although he didn't know what it was in that woods, and he didn't know if they would rush out to attack him, Yan Xi just gave birth to a sense of urgency in a life-and-death situation out of thin air.
From the moment he stepped into the Whirlwind Village, there was an ominous premonition rising in Yan Xi's heart, and at this time, under the unknown danger behind him, that feeling was infinitely magnified, forcing Yan Xi to rush wildly, as if as soon as he stopped, he would be torn apart and gnawed like the lumberjack in the village.
Yi Ming was pressed tightly in his arms and couldn't breathe, and struggled for a long time before climbing onto Yan Xi's shoulder.
Stout trees are falling one after another, who has such power? The most explainable thing is the monster, but you can't feel the magic breath at all.
The physical strength that has been cultivated by chasing thieves over the wall and cutting red apricots all year round is vividly exerted at this time, but Yan Xi is still out of breath.
After a while, I ran and vomited this immortal and was scolded by the old tree spirit, Yi Ming put his paw on her shoulder, and let this immortal help you!
A clear spring flowed through my body, and one moment I felt like I had a stone tied to my legs, and the next I felt like I had wings on my back.
Yan Xi suddenly felt that her body was as light as a swallow, and her breathing was smooth as if she was walking, giving her an auspicious cloud that could float to the sky.
What's going on? Yan Xi kept moving, but he was puzzled in his heart, why was he suddenly refreshed?
The trees in the distance faded into obscurity, and the beastly roars were silent, not knowing if they had run far enough or if they had stopped roaring.
Yi Ming had been lying on Yan Xi's shoulder and staring at the woods, the towering trees were basically murdered, and with his eyesight, he could only see some shadowy figures moving in the forest, and he couldn't even see whether it was a person or not.
Yan Xi ran all the way down Xiushui Mountain again, without even taking a breath.
"Yi Ming, are you okay?"
It's not very good, Yi Ming's two ears are drooping, and he is about to be turned upside down.
"It's okay," Yan Xi looked at the bustling street in front of him, and only then did he feel like he was back in the present world, and he took a hard breath, and the sense of urgency in his heart was suppressed a little with the fragrance of snacks and pastries.
The roar of Xiushui Mountain is still in my ears, and the trees that have fallen one after another seem to have life, emitting a thrilling sorrow, although there is no danger just now, Yan Xi still gives birth to a kind of joy for the rest of his life.
The feathers of the birds were everywhere, the skeletons of several wolves carried these flesh and blood, and the broken trees in the mountains stirred up bursts of dust, and Que Dezi stood not far away, his face did not distinguish between joy and sorrow, and looked at everything here indifferently.
***
The night erased the last rays of the sun, and the maids in the palace lit up their lamps.
Xu Wenrui was holding a sword in his hand, and there were still some fine beads of sweat on his forehead, he should have just returned from martial arts practice.
"Your Highness," and bowed to greet him, "you are here." ”
"Well," Xu Wenrui casually threw the sword to Heman, "I'll talk to the eldest brother." ”
"His Royal Highness the Third and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince have a deep brotherhood," He Man said with a smile, "The minions will go out." ”
"There is labor," Xu Wenrui walked in extremely naturally, it seemed that it was already a customary rule, and He Man immediately took the palace maids and eunuchs out of the East Palace and gently closed the door.
"It's so good," Xu Wenrui was very thirsty just after practicing the sword, and he felt a lot more comfortable after taking a sip of tea, "The third brother's body is really good, and he doesn't feel tired after practicing for so long, if he wants to change to the previous body, the sword is almost unable to lift." ”
"I remember that the third brother was very playful before, but he seems to admire Emperor Deyang very much, if he knew that I wanted to kill Emperor Deyang, what would he do? Will it fight me? Big brother and father, who will he choose? ”
"No, I don't just want to kill Emperor Deyang, I also want to destroy everything about him!"
The person lying on the bed breathed steadily and did not respond at all.
Xu Wenrui has long been accustomed to it, he will never do anything out of the ordinary in front of people, nor will he show any resentment, on the contrary, he will deliberately maintain his demeanor and good conduct, since he is wearing the skin of the third brother, he doesn't want others to say bad things about the third brother. made many ministers in the court feel that the third prince is much more elegant than the sick prince, and even many people have begun to support the three princes.
"They are so stupid," Xu Wenrui sneered disdainfully, "I don't know that the three princes and the crown prince are all me." The still water flowing deep one by one is actually extremely stupid, and they are all virtuous and unworthy of their king. ”
"Hehe, the more you say that the more this person lacks something, the more he has to say something, he has no merit himself, he wants to call himself Emperor Deyang, it's really laughing to death."
I don't know when it started, Xu Wenling and Xu Wenrui gradually became a person, Xu Wenling is not without ambition, Xu Wenrui is not just about having fun, but their different identities limit them, Xu Wenling has been weak and sick since he was a child, and he can't do anything without a body that can support him. Xu Wenrui felt sorry for his eldest brother and deliberately pretended to be cynical, for fear that he would get some praise and the eldest brother's prince would be gossiped about.
And now this body belongs to two people, and it contains Xu Wenling's resentment and Xu Wenrui's talent.
"Third brother, I want to live for you," Xu Wenrui sighed, frowned slightly, stared at a certain place in the void, and said bitterly, "Third brother, do you know? Since I got your body, I have studied without sleep or food, and practiced martial arts diligently, and later I found out that I am not a stupid person. ”
"If there is no Emperor Deyang, he is not worthy of the throne and damages my good fortune, I can be a good prince."
Xu Wenrui stood up and smiled at the person on the bed, "I can be a prince who worries about the country and the people, and a prince who cares about the world!" ”
"So, at this point today, we can only blame Emperor Deyang!"
Only Xu Wenrui's crazy laughter hit his own eardrums in the room, making him more and more crazy and unable to control himself.
Sometimes he himself will be in a trance, he can't tell who he is, he doesn't know what he wants, and he doesn't even know what kind of person he is, isn't it good to live like Xu Wenrui like this?
But whenever a certain place began to relax, the prince lying on the bed would silently stretch out his claws, press his head to force him to look at the humiliations he had suffered, and force the occasional compromise to disappear.
"Third Highness," He Man said softly outside the door, "Han..."
"Come in!" Xu Wenrui directly interrupted him, and opened the door with a full answer to invite Han Qiong in.
Han Qiong still had the attitude of a villain with no one in his eyes, "What are you crazy about?" ”
"I'm not crazy, I just have some words," Xu Wenrui looked at the person lying on the bed, "I want to say to my eldest brother." ”
"Why deceive yourself? It makes people feel like a fool," Han Qiong sneered, "What did you call me over for?" Also, why do you have to talk about things in the East Palace every time? Wouldn't it work anywhere else? ”
"Because, this is the East Palace of me and my eldest brother," Xu Wenrui walked to the edge of the bed and sat down, "I am him, he is me." ”
"What is the purpose of helping me?"
Han Qiong felt that he was really a little crazy, but it didn't matter to him whether he was crazy or not, helping the barbarians conquer the Great Zhou was his goal, and the rest had nothing to do with him.
"Your Highness, you have to ask this question every day, and I still answer that way, I am moved by His Highness's sanctity and want to help you."
"I don't believe it."
Han Qiong snorted coldly and pursed her lips, "If you are concerned about this matter, I will not accompany you!" ”
Xu Wenrui looked at him for a long time, and suddenly said, "Mobei will definitely ask for grain and grass, do you plan to give them like this?" ”
"Oh?" Han Qiong asked with great interest, "When did you start caring about state affairs?" ”
It's ridiculous to say, whether he is a prince or a prince, he has never participated in political affairs seriously, he couldn't do it before, and now he is not qualified.
"I don't care about any people or state affairs, I just don't like Qin Shi very much."
"Qin Yan?" Han Qiong was curious, "Why did he provoke you?" ”
"He didn't provoke me," Xu Wenrui raised the corner of his mouth, "He is young and successful, I'm jealous, can't I?" This is true, he is jealous of Qin Shi, jealous that he has a father who protects him, jealous that he has the spirit of youth, and jealous of his healthy body.
As he himself said, the more people lack something, the more they care about something.
"As for it?" Han Qiong laughed, "How are you moody." ”
"I'm not used to it, what are you going to do with Mobei's grain and grass?"
"I have my own plans," Han Qiong shook off the dust, "It's you, doesn't it matter?" The rise and fall of the Great Zhou, don't you take it seriously? ”
"It doesn't matter," Xu Wenrui spread his hands, "It has nothing to do with me how Da Zhou is, I'm only interested in a few people." ”
"Are you still worthy of being a prince like this?"
"Are you worthy of being a national teacher?" Xu Wenrui raised his eyebrows, "You forgot how you got to this position?" On your own, it's impossible in this life. ”
Han Qiong didn't take it seriously at all, his purpose was never as simple as a national teacher.
"Your Highness, you don't have to worry, I will never let Mobei get a complete grain and grass, and this battle is doomed to be a fiasco!"
