Regarding Murong Ju's praise, Chu Xi nodded lightly in approval. In troubled times, we rely on the sword in our hands, and we also rely on the sword in our hands to protect our families and defend the country. This swallowtail sword has poured out the hard work of a generation of sword-casting masters and the manpower and material resources of the entire Great Yan Empire, and it can be said to be the pride of the entire Great Yan Dynasty. However, that powerful Dayan has long since been lost in the changes of history.

Twelve years ago, the Xianbei tribe in the northwest region rose up, united the Khitan tribe in the northeast and attacked the Great Yan in the south. At the time of the national crisis, it should have been a time to resist foreign enemies, but Wei Guogong, who was in the south of the Yangtze River, rebelled and became independent from Yanzhong. For a while, the Great Yan was attacked by the enemy, and the Hu people entered the hinterland of the Central Plains and attacked the Yanjing City. The blood of the Yan royal family fled to the southwest Miao Jiang, but they were also killed by the secret guards of the Duke of Wei Guo in the land of Jingchu.

Two years later, the Yan Kingdom collapsed, and the Xianbei royal family changed their surname to Murong to establish the Daliang Empire, which accounted for two of the three in the world and was the most powerful. Wei Guo declared himself a vassal to Daliang and continued to rule Yangzhou as a vassal state. Qingyouji was collected by the Khitan in the third week, and the Khitan established a khanate, with the name of Da Liao.

Chu Xi's eyes were sometimes hot, sometimes cold, as if he had seen the smoke of the war and the white bones and broken swords.

Murong Ju looked at him and said with some contempt: "No matter how sharp the sword is, what is the difference between holding it in the hands of a group of powerless idiots and burning sticks?" Young man, don't dwell on those fantasies of the past. People always... Be... I want to look away a little..."

The swallowtail sword in Chu Xi's hand was placed above Murong Ju's wrist. He wanted to taunt a few more words, but now he was so frightened that he obediently closed his mouth. Murong Ju felt that every cold hair of his body stood up, and even if he hadn't touched it, he felt a faint pain in his wrist under that edge.

"If I kill you with this sword, how many chances do you think you have to escape?" Chu Xi asked.

Murong Ju sneered, not daring to say more.

Chu Xi continued: "You tell me the secret of the treasure and how to get out first, and then I will let you out." You don't have a choice, if you don't want to say it, I'll kill you slowly with a sword. ”

"You don't want to threaten the old man, I, Murong Ju, was also a famous figure in the world. If the old man is unwilling to say it, even if you cut me with a thousand knives, it is useless. Murong Ju retorted fearlessly.

"Hmph, it's a bit backbone", Chu Xi said and raised his hand is a sword.

Yun Qian felt compassion in his heart, don't look over, but when he heard a "bang", an iron chain on Murong Ju's shoulder broke in two.

Murong Ju was surprised and delighted in a cold sweat, and he said, "Don't worry, the old man has always made a promise. I'll tell you the secret of the treasure now, and I'll tell you how to get out when you break all the chains on me. Murong Ju paused, and then continued: "Actually, the treasure of the Great Yan Empire is buried under the Yinzhu Peak on the outskirts of Lin'an City. ”

"How could Dayan's dragon vein treasure be in Lin'an?" Yun Qian on the side couldn't help but ask curiously, you must know that the economic and political center of the Great Yan Dynasty has always been in the north.

"You don't know that. After the founding of the Great Yan, the royal family of all dynasties accumulated rare treasures in the world, and the wealth of gold and silver was not until Emperor Yanjing succeeded to the throne. This Emperor Yan Jing is a complete miser, but he can be regarded as a good emperor. He was well aware of the people's suffering, so he issued an imperial edict prohibiting the royal family from continuing to collect the world's treasures. However, the things that have gone into his pocket can't be returned, so he sorts out and stores the things collected by the royal family in the previous dynasties", Murong Ju continued to explain with some sarcasm, "This Emperor Yanjing has an old friend, but he is a singer on the shore of Xizi Lake in An, but the woman is reluctant to follow him into the palace. In his later years, he frequently toured the south just to find his friend. Later, he couldn't move around, so he simply built a temporary palace on the outskirts of Lin'an City, and lived there for a long time until he died. Before his death, Emperor Yanjing issued a holy decree, which made all his palaces burn down, and future emperors were not allowed to build them again. Ordinary people thought that he had repented before he died, but in fact, he quietly transferred all those treasures there and buried them. ”

Chu Xi listened to Murong Ju talk about these secrets of the Yan Kingdom's royal family, frowning slightly, but he also knew that he was not talking about it. He had also heard a little about these things, but he didn't expect that the treasures of the entire Great Yan Empire had been transferred to the outskirts of Lin'an City. In the first half of his life, Emperor Jing worked hard to make the people of Yan State live a good life, but in the second half of his life, he abandoned the government and politics to the extreme, which led to disputes between parties in the palace above the court. Although this Emperor Jing was called the lord of Zhongxing in later generations, in fact, the Yan Kingdom also began to have frequent civil strife after him, and it has been in a slump since then. Chu Xi thought of this and sighed.

Although Yun Qian didn't know Chu Xi's thoughts, he saw that his eyebrows were full of sorrow, and he didn't know how to feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

"I'm going to break your chains now, and you don't have to move, or I'll be responsible if I accidentally cut off a few of your fingers or something. I hope you will fulfill your promise" Chu Xi became calm again, and after that, the swallowtail on his hand shook a few times.

The chains that locked Murong Ju were all broken.

Murong Ju stood up suddenly, stretched his whole body, and when he stood again, he was already powerful.

Sensing the fierce light on Murong Ju's face, Yun Qian stepped forward to protect Chu Xi behind him, and asked Murong Ju without fear: "Congratulations to the senior for getting out of trouble, now it's time for you to tell us how to get out of here." ”

"Haha, the old man still wants to thank you. Now that you are liberated, I naturally want to tell you how to get out," Murong Ju said as he paced along the edge of the stone platform, gradually winding around the side of Yun Qian, "The place you came from is the prison of Jiangling City. Gangneung Castle used to be the shogunate of one of the princes, so this prison is also unbreakable. Since ancient times, there has always been only one way in and out of prisons. Since you've come from there, you don't think this way will work. And the other exit is guessed by the old man. ”

"Hugh wants to say something inconsequential," Chu Xi always felt a little uneasy in his intuition, so he urged.

Murong Ju laughed and continued to say unhurriedly: "What the old man is about to say is the key. The stone hall here is actually newly built compared to this prison. Before the Great Yan Kingdom dominated the world, there were a large number of Yan Sect members hidden in this Jiangling City. Zhu Rong, the fire god worshipped by the Yan Sect, did all the murder and arson. They need to gather and worship every month, so they dug up such a stone hall here. The location of this hall should be next to the Qianlong Pond in the west of Gangneung City. You must know that the secret path when you came was dug up later by Yun Lingsong, a bastard, so how did these Yan Sect members enter the assembly? Murong Ju looked at the pool and sold Guan Zi with a smile.

Yun Qian understood a little and asked, "The seniors said that they were swimming from the water." From this underwater pass, you can reach the dragon pool in the west of the city? ”

"Well, that's good. The kid has a very high understanding, but this is just the old man's guess, but he wants to come to eight or nine. Thank you for helping the old man get out of trouble, the old man is leaving. But... Before leaving, the old man still has to do one thing..."Before the words fell, Murong Ju's body grew violently, and he struck Chu Xi with a palm.

Just now, he deliberately said something that he didn't have, in order to inadvertently walk to Chu Xi's side. Now he has broken his chains, and he has become a tiger. The momentum under the palm of his hand was like thunder. Chu Xi couldn't dodge, and under the heavy blow, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and his entire body flew out lightly and fell into the water.

"Senior Brother———! Yun Qian shouted heartbreakingly, and hurriedly jumped into the water and hugged Chu Xi tightly. His eyes were red and about to ooze blood, and he stared at Murong Ju and asked, "My senior brother helped you get out of trouble, but you ignored your oath and plotted against him!" I will lay down my life today, and I will kill you, old thief! “

Murong Bai said in a ghostly manner: "The old man didn't swear not to kill your senior brother. The old man told you to want to know, you help the old man get out, we have already paid off the money. “

Looking at Yun Qian, who was full of grief in the water, Murong Bai said with some regret: "Your senior brother is also kind to me, usually speaking, I will never take revenge, but unfortunately he is a remnant of the previous dynasty." For the sake of my Da Liang Sheji, I had to kill the killer. You have a good young heart, although your martial arts are terrible, but you have always protected your senior brother, so I have also wasted some thoughts. ”

After that, Murong Ju jumped to Yun Qian's side and lifted him and Chu Xi to the shore, and another Heavenly Spirit Cover that held Chu Xi and said, "I, Murong Ju, respect those people who are affectionate and righteous, you are counted as one." I am now passing on to you fifty percent of my internal strength, and if you practice diligently, you will be able to integrate it into your own use. National hatred is national revenge, personal hatred is personal revenge, if you have the ability, come to me for revenge at any time. ”

Yun Qian struggled under his hands and couldn't break free, he roared hoarsely, kicked and hit Murong Ju but didn't move. A slightly cool air flow poured in from the shallow Heavenly Spirit Cover and penetrated into the five internal organs and the meridians of the limbs.

After half a pillar of incense, Murong Ju threw Yun Qian to the ground. Although Yun Qian gained internal strength, he couldn't integrate it, and his breath was chaotic for a while, and he convulsed on the ground.

"It should be possible for normal people to sneak out of here, but your senior brother only has one breath left now, and it is estimated that he will not be able to get out. This swallowtail sword will be left here for him to be buried. Murong Ju finally put down two sentences, and jumped into the pool with a "poof" and disappeared.

The airflow in Yun Qian's body was still colliding around, but there were signs of gradual improvement. He struggled to get up, held Chu Xi in his arms, and called out tremblingly: "Senior Brother Chu Xi ~ Senior Brother Chu Xi ~ Don't sleep, you look at me." I'll be able to save you. ”

Chu Xi's eyes trembled slightly, and he said softly: "Xiao Qian, what the old thief said is right, senior brother is difficult to get away with today." You're out on your own, and you're going to learn to be treacherous. The human heart is the most vicious. ”

"Senior brother, don't talk nonsense! I'll be able to take you out! My life is yours, and if you die, I will never live alone! Yun Qian said loudly.

Chu Xi was in Yun Qian's arms, smiled, and said weakly: "Xiao Qian, don't forget that you still owe me a favor that has not been repaid." ”

Yun Qian hurriedly agreed: "Yes, senior brother, you still have unfinished business for me to do." You cheer up a little! ”

Chu Xi Yingying smiled and continued: "Don't interrupt, listen to me." I want you to do three things for me. First, you have to become a world-famous figure and have a long face for my brother. To do this, you have to learn not only to study hard, but also to learn how to deal with people. In this way, we can survive in this troubled world. Senior brother, I was disturbed by this old thief of the Murong family today, and I lost so badly. You have to take this as a warning. Second, you go to Lin'an City to protect Dayan's treasure. You can first go to the Yanyu Building in Jinling to find a person named Lijiu, show her this, and she will help you," said Chu Xi and untied a jade pendant from his waist to Yun Qian, with two phoenixes carved on the side, and the word "Xi" engraved in the middle.

Seeing that Yun Qian took the jade pendant and held it tightly, Chu Xi was a little happy in his heart, and continued: "The last one is that you have to avenge me. Use my swallowtail to kill that old thief Murong. “

Yun Qian felt that Chu Xi in his arms was getting weaker and weaker, and said solemnly: "Don't worry, senior brother, I will complete everything you say." But the most important thing right now is to get you out of here. ”
