, the fastest update of the latest chapter of the Championship Record!
The hatred in Mantuo's heart gradually faded, if it wasn't for Xie Jianhua to block the fatal blow for her, the person who would die would be her, she heard the meaning of Xie Jianhua's words: "What did you say? You say that Daddy has the heart to die? ”
"Lady Manta, won't you forgive me?" Xie Jianhua's eyes were blurred, and his eyes began to wander.
Manta bit his lip and forced himself to endure the grief in his heart: "I forgive you. ”
"Thank you." Xie Jianhua was relieved and swallowed his last breath.
"Good, good. When is the time for retribution, it is better to resolve it with a smile. A Taoist horn sounded, a Taoist priest and an old man slowly appeared, the Taoist priest came closer, looked at Xie Jianhua, and put his hands together, "Your wish has been fulfilled, you don't have to be nostalgic for the world anymore, go to life." ”
Strange to say, Xie Jianhua's clenched hands suddenly let go, the sad expression on his face disappeared, and his face was calm and peaceful.
Xia Xiang didn't know the Taoist priest, but he knew the old man behind the Taoist priest, he was both surprised and delighted: "Mr. Jin Jia, why are you here?" ”
Mr. Jin Jia nodded, and sighed again: "Xie Jianhua, Xie Jianhua, you have this catastrophe, and it is also your destiny." The things of the world, the entanglement of grievances and grievances, all say that the only death is difficult through the ages, but in fact, what is the fear of death? I am afraid that I will not be liberated even if I am afraid of death. ”
After Jin Jia finished sighing, he introduced the Taoist priest to Xia Xiang: "Come on, come on, Xia Langjun, Ye Mu Pingye Zhenren." Ye Zhenren, Xia Xiangxia County. This is the lady of Mantuo, this is Xiao Wu, and this is ...... Who are you? ”
Zheng Xiangan nodded: "Under Zheng Xiang'an." ”
"Oh, he's Zheng Xiang'an, who doesn't know where he came from and doesn't know what to do." Jin Jia introduced Zheng Xiang'an perfunctorily, and asked with concern, "Lady Mantuo, Xiao Wu, come, let the old man check the injury." ”
Ye Muping? Legendary immortals? Xia Xiang was taken aback, and secretly looked at Ye Muping a few times, only to see that although Ye Muping was calm and calm, and he was a fairy bone, but other than that, there was no difference from ordinary people, neither the immortal aura was around, nor the red light flashed, so he couldn't help but be slightly disappointed. However, this was not the time to ask Ye Muping for immortal arts, he was busy with Jin Jia to check where Mantuo and Xiao Wu were injured.
Manta is the essence of the energy is consumed too much, which involves internal injuries and vomits blood. Xiao Wu was full of flesh and skin, and his body looked bloody and scarred at first glance, but in fact, he was not seriously injured, and it was good to recuperate for a few days. External injuries are easy to treat, internal injuries are difficult to heal, and if Manta wants to recover his energy, it will take ten days and half a month to say the least.
Ding Ke led a team of officials to rush over, and when he saw that the scene was a mess, he knew that he was a step late, so he hurriedly asked Xia Xiang for his guilt. Xia Xiang didn't blame him, running is always faster than a horse. He asked Ding Ke to chase down the rut all the way, and then arrange officials to search carefully along the road.
There was no time to ask why Jin Jia and Ye Muping came here and how they came here, Xia Xiang asked Xiao Jia to leave the mantle to return, and he and Xiao Wu, Zheng Xiang'an, Jin Jia, Ye Muping, and Cao Shujun rode horses to continue to chase after the carriage that hijacked Lian Ruohan.
Although Mantuo didn't want to go back, he had just fought and exhausted all his strength, and if he followed Xia Xiang and a few people together, he was afraid that he would also become a burden, so he had to respond. She told Xia Xiang: "Xia Xianzun must be careful, the person who plundered Fang Shi Niang should be Yan Hao." ”
Although Xia Xiang had already guessed the relationship between Fang Shi Niang and Yan Hao, he still had some doubts: "Fang Shi Niang and Yan Hao are fellow believers? ”
"Fang Shi Niang may not be the same as Yan Hao, but the enemy of the enemy is a friend." Mantuo didn't think that Fang Shi Niang and Yan Hao were in the same camp, and she was also puzzled why Fang Shi Niang had to kill Xia Xiang.
Xia Xiang and his entourage entered the village, which was sparsely populated and the streets were empty. Several people galloped on horseback, and soon passed through the village and came to the field, where only Ding Ke and a group of officials were scattering and searching separately.
Zheng Xiang'an dismounted, looked down, turned over and got on his horse, galloped forward a mile away, and stood on top of a high post.
Although the high post is only more than two zhang high, in the plain, standing on the high hill, the eyes are all around, and the radius is more than ten miles. On the plains, beyond the dotted villages, there are endless fields. In the middle of the field, there are also a few farmers working in the fields. On the country road, there were pedestrians and ox carts, but there was not a single carriage or horse to be seen.
Seeing Zheng Xiangan's solemn face, Xia Xiang felt slightly uneasy in his heart: "What, Zheng Langjun?" ”
"The rut is gone here, strange." Zheng Xiangan got off the horse and checked again, shaking his head, "It seems to have disappeared out of thin air, it shouldn't be, it's too weird." ”
Ding Ke and others also followed, and Ding Ke, who is experienced in handling cases, also found something abnormal: "Xia Xianzun, when the carriage arrived here, it seemed that it suddenly disappeared, and his subordinates suspected that the carriage was hidden in Yuanjia Village." ”
"If you don't hide in Yuanjia Village, where are you going, is it possible that a few carriages can still go to the sky and the earth?" Jin Jia was also very worried about Lian Ruohan's safety, he glared at Ye Muping, "Ye Zhenren, Ye Shenxian, hurry up and pinch your fingers to calculate where Lian Niangzi was hidden?" You are a god, and a god can do anything. ”
Ye Muping smiled unhurriedly: "Don't be in a hurry, if you care, it will be chaotic, and if it is chaotic, it will change." Even the lady should have such a catastrophe in her life, and she was originally in a catastrophe......"
"Huh?" Xia Xiang was taken aback and was anxious, "Ye Zhenren means that even the lady will have to worry about her life?" ”
"Providence is hard to disobey, life and death are fate...... Ye Muping shook his head, but he who was originally smiling turned into a solemn face, "Within three hours, if we find Lian Niangzi, Lian Niangzi may be able to turn the corner." If you can't, you can only look at Lian Niangzi's own creation. ”
"In less than three hours, within an hour, Zheng can rescue Lian Niangzi unscathed." Zheng Xiang'an laughed, arrogant, "Xia Xianzun, if you believe Zheng, let Zheng dispatch Ding Zhutou and the officials." ”
Xia Xiang nodded: "Zheng Langjun, please." ”
Zheng Xiangan carried out the order as soon as he had the power in hand, and immediately said: "Ding Zhutou, you take all the servants, search from the east of the village to the west of the village in Yuanjia Village, and give you half an hour, as soon as the half hour arrives, immediately take the officials and leave quickly, there must be no mistake." ”
"This ......" Ding Ke didn't know what Zheng Xiang'an meant, he looked at Xia Xiang hesitantly, and when he saw Xia Xiang nodding firmly, he waved his hand and shouted, "Brothers, follow me." ”
The officials followed behind Ding Ke and returned to Yuanjia Village.
After Ding Ke and a few people entered the village, Zheng Xiangan got on the horse and said, "Xia Xianzun, please come with Zheng." ”
Jin Jia muttered: "Who is he, the god is mysterious, there is Ye Zhenren, where is he pretending to be a ghost?" I really don't understand. Xia Langjun, Xia Xianzun, don't worry, wait for the old man. Ye Zhenren, Ye Lao'er, why are you running so fast? ”
Several people rode horses to the entrance of the village, Zheng Xiangan dismounted, and saw an abandoned yard on the side of the road, so he tied the horse inside.
Jin Jia was very puzzled: "Why are you bolting the horse?" Wait a minute, if we find Lian Niangzi, if the other party rides a horse, how can we chase it? ”
"If nothing else, even the lady is not in Yuanjia Village." The abandoned yard is in disrepair, the yard is overgrown with weeds, and the dilapidated house is still crumbling, Zheng Xiangan gently closed the squeaky courtyard door full of holes, and looked outside a few times, "If you want to know where she is, wait a minute." ”
"Hit the grass and scare the snake!" Xia Xiang figured out Zheng Xiang'an's intentions, "What Zheng Langjun means is that Lian Niangzi may not be in Yuanjia Village, but the person who kidnapped Lian Niangzi will know Lian Niangzi's whereabouts as long as they lead them out of the cave and ask?" ”
"Exactly." Zheng Xiangan smiled slightly, and said approvingly, "Xia Xianzun is really good, and in time, the trial and judgment of the case will also be caught." ”
"Mr. is omnipotent, isn't the case of Mr. Fu Ke a shocking case that has been tried by Mr.? If there is no gentleman, not only will Dong Xian die unjustly in vain, but I don't know what bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods are hidden in the tiger's den in Longtan. ”
"Poor Dao also heard that Xia Xianzun can judge the yang day and the yin at night, but is there such a thing?" Ye Muping smiled curiously.
"It's just a legend, this official is just a mortal fetus in the flesh, where can he have such skills?" Xia Xiang heard the sound of chickens and dogs barking outside, shook his head and said, "I heard that the officials are like tigers, and sure enough, the people of Yuanjia Village have suffered. ”
As soon as half an hour arrived, the sound outside immediately disappeared, Zheng Xiangan quietly pushed open the courtyard door, looked at it a few times, and smiled mysteriously: "It's time for us to appear." ”
A few people followed Zheng Xiang'an out of the courtyard, and the street was empty, if it weren't for the messy footprints on the ground and the vegetable leaves thrown everywhere, it would have made people suspect that it was an uninhabited village.
Yuanjia Village is not big, a street runs through the whole village, you can see the head at a glance, at most more than 30 zhang long. A few people walked along the street, halfway through, there was no one in sight, Xiao Wu couldn't hold it back, and pulled Zheng Xiangan's sleeve: "Zheng Langjun, if you get nothing and delay the time, if even the lady encounters misfortune, do you want to apologize for the crime with death?" ”
Zheng Xiangan spread his hands: "Even the lady really wants to have something otherwise, it is also her fate, what does it have to do with Zheng?" Zheng is determined to save people, and he does his best to obey the destiny of heaven. ”
"Xiao Wu, don't worry." Xia Xiang noticed the abnormality of Yuanjia Village, if it was an ordinary village, how could the streets be empty, even at night, there would not be a single figure, there must be something strange here, he turned around and looked at Ye Muping, "Ye Zhenren may have calculated whether Lian Niangzi is safe now?" ”
"The life span of people in the world has a fixed number, the so-called seven lives and three fortunes, only three percent of a person's life can be changed. However, Lian Niangzi is not an ordinary person, she is so wealthy, she must have a mission in the world. But all those who are rich and rich are not ordinary people, just like Xia Xianzun, they must also have heavy responsibilities on their shoulders, so they have to go through hardships. ”
"Through the ordeal?" Xia Xiang smiled bitterly, "It's easier said than done, right now that even the lady has been kidnapped, and the wind is really surging, can you ask Ye Zhenren for guidance, what should I do in the future to break through the wind and waves, and hang on the clouds and sails to the sea?" ”
Ye Mu stroked his beard and smiled: "I have been a virtuous person since ancient times, and he has died without retreating. Zixu abandoned the Wu River, and Qu Yuan finally threw himself into the Hunan waterfront. How can Lu Jixiong protect himself? Li Si tax is not early. Can the Huating crane be heard? What is the way of Shangcai goshawk? You don't see Wuzhong Zhang Han called Dasheng, and the autumn wind suddenly recalls the eastward journey of the river. And a glass of wine before his death, why should he be famous for thousands of years after his death? ”
Li Bai's "Difficult to Walk" Xia Xiang has been reciting backwards since he was a child, and at this time, he said it from Ye Muping's mouth, and his gentle and stretched voice turned out to be a different taste, difficult to walk, difficult to walk, and now he really has the feeling of drawing his sword and looking around.
"Here it is, here comes the serpent." Zheng Xiangan suddenly stood up and hid behind a tree. There was a courtyard near the door not far away, and when the door opened, two people came out of it, both of them were about forty years old, with goatees, roe deer, and rats, both of whom were black and thin.
The two of them put their hands into their sleeves and looked around on the street, and one of them said: "Li Xiaosi, the official of Fang Cai is a person from the Zhending County Ya, right?" Not Cui Fuzun's subordinates? ”
The person known as Li Xiaosi smiled: "How can it be Cui Fuzun's subordinates, Jiang Xiaoliu, you don't use your brain to think about it, Cui Fuzun will send someone to search Yuanjia Village?" You say you have to be stupid. The person who took the lead just now was obviously Xia Xiang's most loyal lackey. ”
Jiang Xiaoliu smiled embarrassedly: "Also, Cui Fuzun is his own person, how can his own people search his own place?" By the way, Li Xiaosi, Ding Ke is also a stupid person, he came to search with great fanfare, how could he find someone? He would never have thought that even the little lady would not be in Yuanjia Village for a long time. ”
Xia Xiang and the others hid behind the big tree, although they were not very close, because they were very quiet, they could hear clearly. Several people looked at each other with happy faces.
"Wei Zhongqiang is really powerful, he is simply a clever plan, he used the clever trick of striking the east and west to make Xia Xiang and his gang turn around, let a few carriages lead Xia Xiang to Yuanjia Village, he and Liu Yuanwai have already run away, hehe, Xia Xiang still thinks how smart he is, fart, even Wei Zhongqiang can't compare to one toe." Li Xiaosi said triumphantly, "Jiang Xiaoliu, Boss Wei instructed us to take care of the goods, we must not make mistakes." He went to meet Sister Zhu and came back half an hour later. When he returns, it's best that everything is calm and Ding Ke doesn't come back, so that we can rest assured. ”
"Ding Ke is just a stupid donkey, he tossed and found nothing, he has already run away, how can he come back? Ding Ke didn't want to think about it, how could the bandits search be found when they entered the village? Hit the grass and startle the snake, and the snake has already run away. He must have gone somewhere else with Xia Xiang's stupid pig to find Little Lady Lian now. Hee-hee, even the little lady looks really handsome, and it's cheaper than Liuyuan. If I were to touch it, I would be willing to die. Jiang Xiaoliu's saliva was about to flow out.
"Get out! Dare to fight the idea of even the little lady, not afraid that Liu Yuanwai will kill you? There is no difference between Liu Yuan killing you and stepping on an ant, you should be careful, don't be like Han Meng, you are not greedy for money or flattery, but you are at the mercy of a woman. Tell you Jiang Xiaoliu, women are disasters, if you want to die quickly, you can find a few more women and keep you from being killed like Dong Xian. Li Xiaosi's eyes widened, and he raised his hand and slapped Jiang Xiaoliu's head.
