Xiao Tan sat down at the table uninvited, staring at the teapot in a daze, as if this was his room.

The real owner, Hu Guiyang, ignored him, sat on the bed, and hummed a little song softly.

"The Emperor is here." Xiao Tan finally spoke.

"Hmm."

"Tonight, the number of Inhumans will be reduced to twenty-five, and in a few days, there will be only five left."

"It's finally over." Hu Guiyang yawned loudly, if there were no outsiders, he really wanted to fall on the bed.

"I already feel the power fading."

"It's the same as Jiang Dongxia described, like a cold wind blowing in through the crack in the door." Hu Guiyang also felt it.

Xiao Tan raised up and changed the topic, "What did Li Xingtian say to you?" ”

"What else could it be? Recite poetry. ”

"I want to listen to the specifics, every single sentence."

Hu Guiyang smiled: "It's hard for me, there seems to be a sentence that 'ants don't know the height of the sky'......"

"It's not poetry, it's every word he says."

"It's even more difficult for me, anyway, he saw through your plan and wanted to find the mastermind, that's all."

Xiao Tan's eyes were so cold that he didn't look like a teenager.

"I said that I would keep it secret, if Li Xingtian had gotten an answer from me, he would have done it to you a long time ago, and would he have waited until now?"

Xiao Tan's expression softened slightly, "I have to ask clearly, in case I am plotted." ”

"Secret calculation is not Li Xingtian's style. To be honest, your plan doesn't seem to have been successful, and the two in the front yard have already seen through it, and there is no sign of a big fight. ”

"Hey, don't worry." Xiao Tan got up and walked in front of Hu Guiyang, "I'm sorry." ”

"I don't know why you apologized, but I forgive you." Hu Guiyang also stood up, half a head taller than Xiao Tan, and smiled at him.

"I have to listen to the truth."

Without waiting for Hu Guiyang to speak, Xiao Tan suddenly grabbed Hu Guiyang's left hand vein and gradually increased his strength.

"It turned out that I was going to be ruthless, this is not easy to forgive......" Hu Guiyang was able to fight at first, and even laughed and teased, but soon felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, obviously the wrist was being held, but the chest was like a boulder, and he had no strength to speak.

"Prince Dan said, killing a stranger is not a violation, so you'd better be honest with me, did Li Xingtian mention me?"

Hu Guiyang is usually easy-going and doesn't like to compete with others, but when there is no way to retreat, he is stubborn, and he is unwilling to give in no matter what.

His smile had always been out of place, and this one was especially annoying, and his distorted smile seemed to Xiao Tan to be full of mockery and provocation.

"Tell the truth, I just need to tell the truth!" Xiao Tan said angrily, with force on his hand, "Why do you have to force me to kill?" ”

Qi and blood surged suddenly, Hu Guiyang seemed to be submerged in water, not only did it have difficulty breathing, but his eyes were also white.

The white light suddenly disappeared, and Hu Guiyang was able to catch his breath again, and hurriedly took a big deep breath.

Xiao Tan on the other side seemed to be fine, "It seems that you are not lying, Li Xingtian has not suspected me yet." ”

"But I don't want to keep it a secret for you anymore." Hu Guiyang said, wanting to laugh, but couldn't.

"I just spared your life, and you repay me like that?" Xiao Tan's face showed anger again.

Li Xingtian is just like a child, but Xiao Tan is really a child.

The anger in Hu Guiyang's heart suddenly dissipated, and he was finally able to smile, "Okay, keep it secret for one more night, if you are a mortal tomorrow morning, I will lie down and sleep, as if it never happened, but if you are a stranger, I will no longer keep it secret, no matter who asks, I will tell him the truth." ”

Xiao Tan was stunned, "I'm a stranger, aren't you afraid?" ”

"Staying with strangers every day, a little scared has long since disappeared."

"I'll kill ...... now" Xiao Tan raised his hand again, but he didn't have time to make a move.

The door slammed open, and someone walked in and looked at the two of them, "What are you two doing?" ”

Hu Guiyang's expression was calm, but Xiao Tan was shocked.

The person who came in was Li Xingtian.

"We're betting to see if I'll make it through tonight."

"How's it going? What if you haven't survived? ”

"If I haven't survived, then forget it, if I have survived, Xiao Tan will call me 'Dad'."

Xiao Tan was stunned, and Li Xingtian was also stunned, and then laughed, "Haha, interesting, is it called in public?" ”

"It should be, what do you say, Xiao Tan?"

"Hmm." As soon as he arrived in front of Li Xingtian, Xiao Tan changed back to his original appearance, resigned, and nervous and at a loss.

"Be sure to call me then." Li Xingtian became more and more interested.

"Of course."

"Just count me in and bet on whether I can survive the ......"

Hu Guiyang shook his head, "You can definitely get through it, it's not fun to gamble, only the weakest alien like me is worth betting." ”

"That's right. Then I'm going to join in, but contrary to Tan, I'm betting you'll make it through tonight, and if you become mortal, I'll call you 'Daddy', otherwise you'll call me 'Daddy'. ”

"Then aren't you the grandfather of Xiao Tan?"

"Haha, it's more fun that way."

"I don't bet with you." Hu Guiyang refused.

"Why?"

"You're so much better than me, so I don't want to bet with you."

Li Xingtian twisted his eyebrows and thought for a while, and actually accepted this reason, "Okay, I'll see the results tomorrow." Come with me. ”

"Where are you going?"

"Since you know that I am much more powerful than you, you dare to ask questions?"

Hu Guiyang walked towards Li Xingtian, "By the way, if I encounter an accident, this gamble will be invalidated, and no one will have to call anyone 'Dad'." ”

"How could you have an accident? Who would dare to surprise you? Li Xingtian said loudly.

"Be prepared." Hu Guiyang said with a smile and went out of the house first.

Li Xingtian followed, pointed to the East Cross Courtyard, and after taking a few steps, he whispered, "I know who the mastermind is." ”

"Oh?" Hu Guiyang was a little surprised, he didn't expect Li Xingtian to have such a sharp gaze.

"Guan Mutong."

"Old name Hanako?" Hu Guiyang was even more surprised, as far as he knew, when Xiao Tan was choosing an accomplice, the first stranger to be excluded was Guan Mutong.

"Yes, the strangers in the rivers and lakes went to sow discord one by one, only you, Luo, and Guan Mutong were not involved, among which Guan Mutong was the most cunning, so he was the most suspicious."

"That's just suspicious, what are you going to do?"

"I'll talk about it after tonight, to mortals, I'll open the net, and to strangers, hum."

Hu Guiyang asked curiously: "Who is more powerful, you or Prince Dan?" Have you ever played against each other? ”

"Why do you want to sow discord too?"

"Pure curiosity."

While talking, the two walked to the gate of the East Cross Courtyard, but the courtyard door was closed, "There are women living in the courtyard, so it's not appropriate for us to visit at this time, right?" ”

"Roche and Mrs. Mei have moved out." Li Xingtian knocked lightly on the door.

"Then it's ...... here"

Li Xingtian nodded, "My identity in the past didn't matter, but now I am all strangers, so let's try my luck tonight." ”

The courtyard door opened, and out came an old eunuch, who nodded to the two and turned sideways to get out of the way.

Hu Guiyang was just about to take a step, Li Xingtian reached out and grabbed his arm, and said very seriously: "I'm more powerful, Prince Dan uses a sword, and I only use empty hands, so I'm more powerful." ”

"Understood."

Only then did Li Xingtian let go and did not follow into the cross-hospital.

There were lights in several rooms across the courtyard, Hu Guiyang didn't know which one to go, and the old eunuch behind him closed the door and said softly: "Captain Hu, please." ”

The eunuch who could walk with the emperor was naturally not simple, Hu Guiyang didn't recognize this person, smiled at him, followed him, and entered a room on the side.

This was once the residence of the Mei couple, and the original belongings were removed, leaving only a bed, a table, a chair, a lamp, and nothing else.

Under the lamp sat the young man, his face still as weak as before, dressed in civilian clothes, and there was no sign of heaven on his body.

"Stand down, stand down." He spoke the same way as before, stammering.

Hu Guiyang didn't know who he was talking about, and when he looked back, the old eunuch was already kneeling on the ground, inexplicably looking very excited, as if he was going to cry, "Your Majesty ......"

"I'm just a stranger, a stranger here."

The old eunuch kowtowed a few times, then got up and stepped back and closed the door.

Hu Guiyang was inexplicable, he turned around for a while, and suddenly thought that he should kneel, but he felt that it was unnecessary, "It's just a stranger?" ”

"Hmm."

"What do you call it?"

The emperor smiled tiredly, "If you want, you can call me ...... 'Master Zhu'." ”

"It's not like a 'master', it's more like a 'fairy'."

"Hehe, you, you can speak, in Yunyang ......" The harder the emperor tried, the more he couldn't spit out the word "fu".

"I don't know anything in Yunyang, it's all about messing around."

The Emperor smiled and nodded, "Is the thing still, still there?" ”

Hu Guiyang took out the jade pendant from his arms, stepped forward and gently placed it on the table, which was given to him by the princess and the eldest lady.

"Well, you are very smart, you actually thought of letting the ninth princess enter the palace." The emperor's stuttering is good and bad, and when he is in a good mood, he can also talk about it to the end.

"It's still messing around." Hu Guiyang said with a smile, there was only one chair in the room, and he had nowhere to sit, but he refused to kneel, just as the emperor was an ordinary stranger.

The emperor didn't think about preparing an extra chair or stool at all, and he didn't care whether he knelt down or not, he reached out and picked up the jade pendant, stared at it for a long time, and said slowly: "The world is ...... Is there really immortality? ”

"I am the righteous son of Zhao Ying of the hundred households, and no one in our family believes in immortality." Thinking of Shi Guida, who already believed in God, Hu Guiyang changed his words and said: "I haven't changed. ”

"But...... But...... You've seen it, you've seen it, ......you've seen it, you've seen it, you've seen it,

"I've seen it, but the people on the ship will die, so leave the tomb of the Yuyu people, and it takes external force to ascend, so 100,000 mortals are used. It's not a god to be strong, it's the same with the Heavenly Machine, and it's the same with the Inhumans. ”

The emperor either didn't want to argue, or couldn't argue, so he was silent for a long time, and put the white jade pendant back in its place," someone else said...... It's not like you. ”

"Behind the ghosts and gods are always greedy, those people have a request for Your Majesty."

The emperor didn't notice this "Your Majesty", and smiled: "You don't want me? ”

"I ask for very little, and a captain in brocade clothes can meet it."

The smile on the emperor's face gradually disappeared, pointed to the jade pendant, and motioned for Hu Guiyang to take it back, "I don't seek immortality for myself, I seek immortality for the ancestors and the great tomorrow." ”

Hu Guiyang finally controlled his mouth and didn't talk nonsense, but he held back a very strange smile on his face.

"I'll give you both statements...... All give a chance. ”

"Huh?" Hu Guiyang didn't understand.

"You're going to save the prince."

"But I don't know where the prince is, Prince Dan...... Zhang Yi ......"

"The prince is in ...... In the hands of the eunuchs, they have arrived, to the outside of the city. ”
