Chapter 139: Painting the Ground as a Prison
Liu Yan saw a carriage parked at the gate of the East Palace, and couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Who is going out?" ”
"Back to His Highness, it's Lord Chu who wants to go out. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info" The coachman on the side hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
"Oh? Where is he going? Liu Yan was slightly surprised, Chu Shenxia hadn't left the East Palace for many days due to his injuries, what was he doing today for no reason?
The coachman was about to answer, when Chu Shenxia suddenly came out of the palace gate and greeted him with a smile: "Your Highness is going down earlier than usual today." ”
"My father had a headache, and when he saw that there was nothing major, he retired from the dynasty." Liu Yan smiled faintly, his eyes swept over the carriage, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
"My mother moved back to Jiankang a few days ago, and I was thinking about going to see her." Chu Shenxia said calmly.
Liu Yan's doubts were swept away, and he stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder with concern and said, "Yes, you should have gone to see your mother a long time ago, your mother is not easy, and you should do your filial piety as soon as possible." ”
"Yes, what Your Highness said is that if I come back late today, Your Highness doesn't have to send someone to find me, by the way, there are still some letters left in the palace, I hope Your Highness can help take a look." Chu Shenxia said one sentence from the left and one sentence from the right.
Liu Yan laughed, his eyes were clear, and he said: "I know, unless something big happens today, I will never come to disturb your mother and son to enjoy the joy of family." Alright, there you go. ”
After Chu Shenxia climbed into the carriage, he did not lower the curtain, but glanced at him meaningfully, and then retracted his body into the carriage.
Today's weather is very cold, but there are still a lot of people who go up the mountain to worship the Buddha, Chu Shenxia lifted the curtain and carefully observed the people around him, some people had wooden expressions, some people looked nervous, some people were pious, and some people were angry, and the murderous aura in their eyes was very strong.
The carriage stopped suddenly, and the coachman's voice came from outside the heavy curtain, "My lord." The carriage can only go here, the road ahead can only be walked, the adults have bad legs and feet, why don't I rent a sedan chair for the adults? ”
Chu Shenxia lifted the curtain and descended. After looking around, he said softly, "No need, you can go back." ”
The coachman hesitated, but in the end he obeyed his instructions and set up the carriage and went back. Chu Shenxia only took two steps before a man in black jumped out of the bushes.
"I remember you, you broke through the Taoist temple before, it was Jing Min who saved you, what are you still doing here?!" The man in black covered his face, so he couldn't see his appearance clearly, but those eyes were familiar to Chu Shenxia.
Chu Shenxia took two steps towards him and said slowly, "I'm here to find my maternal grandfather Li Fu, this has nothing to do with you, right?" ”
Li ...... Are you his grandson? The man in black frowned tightly. It seems that he can't accept what Chu Shenxia said.
"Can't you?" Chu Shenxia saw his reaction clearly, and Deng Shi felt very ridiculous, "Are you still going to stop me?" Do you really think you built this mountain? ”
The man in black slowly put down the knife in his hand, there was a lot of hesitation in his eyes, he suddenly took two steps forward, grabbed his hand and said: "Since you want to see your grandfather, then come with me, I tell you, don't play tricks." ”
Chu Shenxia let him tie his hands behind his back and blindfolded himself. Carry yourself up the hill.
"Are you Liu Yu's person or your grandfather's person?" After walking for a while, Chu Shenxia suddenly asked.
The man didn't answer immediately, but paused before saying, "Don't ask so much, go your way." Don't try to take my word for it. ”
"I know why you don't dare say it." Chu Shenxia chuckled and continued, "Are you afraid that your grandfather will know that you joined forces to hurt me last time, and blame you?" ”
"What nonsense, he already knew about it, and I didn't see him say anything. If you really want to be his grandson, how can he let us go so easily, you must be lying. The man in black snorted coldly, and the hand that grabbed his shoulder gained a little more strength.
Chu Shenxia almost tripped over the stones on the ground, and his feet hurt, so he hurriedly said, "I have bad legs and feet, you can pay attention to the road." ”
"You talk a lot of nonsense!" The man in black complained dissatisfiedly, but his pace did not slow down.
The corners of Chu Shenxia's mouth hooked slightly, and he struggled to keep up with his pace, he was just casually tempted, but he didn't expect to really find out that this person was his grandfather's subordinate.
So what is the identity of my grandfather? can actually order someone to do things for Liu Yu.
After the mountain road arrived, it became a stone step by step, and Chu Shenxia estimated that the Taoist temple had arrived.
Sure enough, several unfamiliar voices suddenly came from the side, "Who is this?" What are you holding him for? ”
Chu Shenxia didn't hear the voice of the man in black, so he guessed that he must have leaned into the man's ear to answer.
After a moment, the man in black pushed himself and said, "Don't be stupid, let's go." ”
Crossing the threshold, he turned a few more corners, and finally stopped, when the sound of the door opening suddenly sounded in front of him, followed by a burst of footsteps.
"How did you tie him up?!"
"He said he was yours...... Your grandson has to go up the mountain......"
The most familiar voice greeted him, Chu Shenxia sneered in his heart, but his face was very calm.
When the blindfolded black cloth was removed, Chu Shenxia saw clearly that this was a small courtyard, Li Fu had just come out of the house in front of him, and the black-clothed people just now didn't know where they had gone, and the entire courtyard was just the two of them.
"Grandpa." Chu Shenxia spoke first.
Li Fu's face was a little unnatural, he took a few steps forward, turned his back to him and said, "Did Jing Min tell you that I was here?" ”
"Yes." Chu Shenxia replied simply.
Li Fu didn't know how much he knew, so he didn't know how much he knew, so he said: "Then go and see your mother, go down the mountain after reading it, and don't come in the future." ”
"What if I don't say yes?" Chu Shenxia stared at his back, his gaze sharp as if he wanted to see him through.
Li Fu saw that he was talking in a weird manner, and he was uncomfortable, and he was about to speak, but Chu Shenxia rushed ahead of him and said, "Does Grandpa want to kill me again?" ”
"You! What nonsense are you talking about! Li Fu turned to look at him suddenly, his cloudy old eyes were very wide, and his beard was about to be blown up with anger.
In the face of his strong reaction, Chu Shenxia's anger in his heart was even more agitated, and he tried his best to restrain his emotions and said coldly: "I never thought that one day, my grandfather would stand on my opposite side and kill me. ”
"It's your own stupidity, I carefully arranged for you and Liu Yu to meet. You obviously admired Liu Yu's talent and ambition, but in the end, you were actually reversed by Liu Yance. Li Fu was not as calm as him, and there was a lot of blame in his tone.
Chu Shenxia's eyes lit up, and he remembered what had happened. gritted his teeth and complained: "It turns out that my acquaintance with Liu Yu was planned by my grandfather, who is my grandfather?" Can you do your best for the prince of the previous dynasty, and do not hesitate to take all the relatives around you?! ”
"Who told you that he was the prince of the former dynasty?" Li Fu's eyes flashed, revealing a thick murderous aura.
"Otherwise, why does my grandfather think he would kill me? Isn't it because I know his secret? Chu Shenxia saw him in front of him, and he did not hide his murderous aura. I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart.
The anger in Li Fu's eyes gradually faded, and he asked gently, "How is your leg injury?" ”
"Didn't I just walk up on my legs? Okay, almost. Chu Shenxia was not happy in the face of his cold greetings, but was a little wary.
"Almost? That's not good, it's been a hundred days, how can your leg get better so quickly? The medicine I have here is a hundred times better than the one in the palace, and you can stay here until your leg is healed!" Old Li Fu's eyes narrowed slightly, and with a wave of his hand, a group of black-clothed people rushed in.
Chu Shenxia saw that he intended to put himself under house arrest in the mountains, and he did not intend to resist. He said coldly: "Grandpa, don't regret it, unless you kill me, otherwise, I will definitely make Qixia Mountain restless." ”
Old Li Fu's back stiffened, paused, took out a jade bottle from his cuff, poured out a pill, and said to Chu Shenxia: "If you take this medicine, you will definitely not be able to exert half of your internal strength in ten days and half a month." ”
Chu Shenxia's eyebrows furrowed, and his eyes swept over everyone. Suddenly, he rushed to the front of Li Fu, grabbed the medicine and swallowed it, and sneered at Li Fu's stunned gaze: "Even if my grandfather asked me to eat poison." I won't blink an eye. ”
Li Fu was stunned for a moment, slowly lowered his hand, and said in a suppressed voice: "Take care of him, if someone loses it, only you ask!" ”
Chu Shenxia turned around and entered the room where Li Fu had just come out and closed the door. He spit out the pill in his throat and wanted him to take the medicine? Don't.
Since he imprisoned himself here, he must make this place clear, Chu Shenxia thought so, and looked at the room.
In the whole room, except for bottles and bottles of pills, there was nothing else, Chu Shenxia turned the room upside down, and he didn't find a trace of anything useful, so he had to sit in the room and drink stuffy tea.
It was getting dark soon, but Chu Shenxia didn't mean to light the lamp, he clearly heard the surprised conversation of several people outside the house, but after a while, the outside of the house fell silent.
The knock on the door suddenly sounded, Chu Shenxia ignored it, and the person outside the door spoke: "Shen Xia, I heard the old man say that you are here, I will come to see you." ”
He stood at the door with a lantern on his face, with an indescribable expression on his face, Chu Shenxia said with a calm face: "Let's talk in another place." ”
Jing Yan thought for a moment and responded, "Okay, I'll take Longtan near you, the scenery there is very beautiful, but you can't see anything at night." ”
The two of them took a step, and the man in black on the side had already stopped in front of them and said, "No, he can't go, if he leaves, we will be punished if we don't guard it tightly." ”
"It's okay, I'll talk to the old man myself in a while, and I won't bother you." Jing Yan said a perfunctory sentence and was about to go out.
The man in black said categorically: "No! Absolutely not! ”
Jing Min's face sank, his eyes swept over the self-conscious person in front of him, and sneered: "Just a few of you, can you stop me?" Stop talking nonsense, stay with me! ”
"If you can't stop it, you have to stop it, the task given to us by the alliance leader, we will complete it to the death!" The man in black clenched the sword in his hand, as if he hadn't realized what he had said.
"Then you go and die."
The sword in Jing Yan's hand was unsheathed with a "bang", but a white light flashed, and the man in black fell to the ground all of a sudden, Chu Shenxia looked at the man in black, and there was a scar on his neck, which was exactly the same as the method of killing with a knife he had seen before, but he never thought that it was not a knife wound, but a sword wound.
After all, they are not real enemies, why should they offend the young alliance leader for such a trivial matter, and the other black-clothed people were silent and retreated one after another.
