Chapter Twenty-Seven: Frowning
The old man clapped his hands and said to Xia Wanyi: "Why has Prince Xia's skill declined?" ”
Hearing this, Xia Wanyi's judgment on the old man's acquaintance in his previous life was correct.
Shaking his head, Xia Wanyi said helplessly: "It's a long story. ”
However, as soon as the words fell, even if he inherited the quick reaction ability of his previous life, he did not dodge the old man who was a few steps away suddenly moved to grab his left wrist.
"Damn, this is definitely a master." The old man caught him off guard and marveled in his heart.
"The breath in the body is a little chaotic, and the muscles and bones are fragile." The old man took the pulse of Xia Wanyi and came to a conclusion.
"What the predecessors said is very true."
"Could it be that the grandson of Qi State injured you like this?" Letting go of Xia Wanyi's wrist, the old man put his hands behind his back.
The old man's words made Xia Wanyi stunned.
Only a few people in the palace knew about his suffering in the Heavenly Prison of Qi Kingdom, how could this old man know? Is it a guess?!
"The seniors are right." Coming back to his senses, Xia Wanyi replied that his respect for the old man had not diminished.
Unexpectedly, the old man said: "It has been seventy or eighty years since the founding of the Qi State, during which the conquests have been continuous, and the number of secessions has decreased a lot, and Gongsun Xiao'er has been even more ambitious when he ascended the throne, but he is a violent lord. ”
With that, he shook his head.
Judging from the old man's words and actions, Xia Wanyi felt that the old man hated iron and steel.
Could it be that he is Gongsun Wuxian's father? I'm rubbing, this news is blowing!
However, the old man continued: "The Xia Kingdom was founded for a hundred years, and there was no conquest, and several generations of emperors were benevolent, righteous and moral, and because of this, the people wanted to create a prosperous era. ”
After a pause, the old man looked at Xia Wanyi's eyes and said: "The old man deduces that this world, sooner or later, belongs to your Xia Kingdom, and the person who accomplishes this feat is either your father Xia Yongmei, or your Xia Wanyi!" ”
Xia Wanyi was dumbfounded when he heard it, he had said to Xuanyuan Yu before that one day, he would gallop the world, but he felt that it was still a little far away, after all, this world is divided into many territories, and there are many difficulties in completing unification.
However, listening to the old man now, he came across a lighthouse like a legend driving in the night.
"The senior must be a powerful man, and the junior implores the senior to bend into the palace to assist my father and son." Xia Wanyi hugged his fists.
"Hehehehe." The old man smiled, "The old man doesn't like the ups and downs of officialdom, but he likes to be quiet, play chess on weekdays, drink tea, and be with Songhe landscapes, and ask Prince Xia not to be embarrassed." ”
Sure enough, he is a hidden master.
Xia Wanyi was a little lost.
"You don't have to be lost, the old man lives for the common people in the world, and when the time comes, the old man will definitely help. Have you forgotten that two years ago, in that freezing night, the old man named Hanako you met? ”
Xia Wanyi frowned, two years ago? Not to mention two years ago, even two months ago, he didn't know! At the end of the day, it's still the limited memory of the past life.
"I'm sure you don't remember anymore." The old man said calmly.
"The younger generation is stupid." Xia Wanyi said, "The juniors have something to ask, why did the seniors appear here?" ”
"Old decay will help you with a ride now! More on that later! The old man suddenly changed the topic, and the hand behind his back shook suddenly.
Xia Wanyi only felt a flash of light in front of her eyes, and felt a pain in different parts of her body, followed by a burning sensation.
At this time, he wanted to move but couldn't, he was weak, he wanted to speak, but his mouth was so heavy that he couldn't open it.
Faced with this sudden situation, Xia Wanyi was still frightened.
The old man said: "The old man was on a mission, and suddenly I saw two men in black breaking into the palace and wanting to shoot you, so I followed, solved these two men in black, took their darts and bows and arrows, and shot two arrows to remind you." You already know this, and as for why I brought you here, the reason is that I know from the two black-clothed people that if the shooting fails, you must be lured into the woods, so I will do it. ”
At this time, the burning sensation on Xia Wanyi's body had disappeared, and a warm current flowed through.
The old man took out a small medicine bottle and said, "Here are two pills that the old man has prepared in the deep mountains and old forests, and after the needle is completed, you can eat one pill, and the remaining one will be taken in twelve hours." ”
put the medicine bottle in Xia Wanyi's hand, and then reached out and touched Xia Wanyi's body, and a few silver needles returned to the old man's hand.
Xia Wanyi knew that the old man was healing him.
When the needle left the body, Xia Wanyi felt that her body was light, but her strength had come back a lot.
And just as he wanted to speak, the old man spoke first: "If the old man is still here, take a step first!" ”
Before Xia Wanyi could react, the old man's feet were on the ground, and only an afterimage was seen.
Seeing the afterimage go away, Xia Wanyi shook her head helplessly.
As soon as the old man left, Xia Wanyi heard hurried footsteps behind him.
Xia Wanyi hurriedly flashed to the back of a tree and observed the movement.
After a while, the comers came to the place where they were just now.
It's a burly teenager.
After examining the corpses on the ground, the boy looked around.
And the young man's look was seen by Xia Wanyi.
Small fish.
"Could it be that the old man knew that there was no threat to me, so he left?"
Xia Wanyi's impression of Xiaoyu is the same as that of the previous life. In his previous life, he and Murong Jia especially liked Xiaoyu, and Xiaoyu also respected them very much.
Xia Wanyi and Murong Jia are regenerative parents for Xiaoyu. Now he has been personally ordered by Xia Yongmei to be succeeded to Murong Mansion, for Xia Wanyi, this is a brother-in-law.
There is no danger anymore, even if there are a few more assassins, Xia Wanyi, who has been healed by the old man, and the burly body, and the little fish who have practiced martial arts in Chang Sheng, are enough to deal with.
Therefore, Xia Wanyi walked out from behind the tree, and Xiaoyu suddenly turned his head to look at him.
"Brother-in-law!"
When he goes out, Xiaoyu basically calls Xia Wan as his brother-in-law, and only when he is in the palace, he will call him "prince".
"Why is the little fish here?" Xia Wanyi asked.
"People who practice martial arts are more sensitive to fights, and this is close to our village." Xiaoyu replied.
Glancing at the corpses on the ground, Xiao Yu asked, "Brother-in-law, are these people assassins?" Looking at this outfit, it looks like the assassins who are ambushed around the Sunreturn Cliff. ”
"That's right, the arrows that were shot at me in the palace are the same, but I don't know where they came from." After that, Xia Wanyi took out an arrow and handed it to Xiao Yu.
Taking the arrow, the little fish looked at it.
"How? You've also served in the military department, do you know that this kind of arrow opens the way? Xia Wanyi asked.
After taking a look, Xiao Yu came to a conclusion: "The arrows used by my Great Xia soldiers are marked with marks, and this arrow, without any marks, should be made by private individuals." ”
"What about this dart?" Xia Wanyi picked up the dart from the ground that he had blocked with a military flashlight.
The dart was supposed to have been snatched by the old man from the Assassin to remind him.
Xiao Yu took the dart and frowned.
