When Angu's master watched the warriors of the Iron Eagle Division rolling in the snow in pain, he was helpless and completely unable to heal, and gave an order that made him extremely painful - to kill the poisoned warriors and keep them away from the pain.

This decision was immediately opposed by the families of the fighters, and some even jumped up to hug their loved ones, but once they had skin-to-skin contact with them, they were soon poisoned and became like the fighters, rolling on the ground while scratching their own skin with their hands.

Ignoring the opposition of the others, the leader believed that the warriors were possessed by the evil spirits of the mountain demons, and the only one who could solve the problem was the witch doctor, who was also a priest, and he ordered the young men to wear gloves and masks, and pulled the warriors out of the tribe with sleds to help them solve their pain forever, and then used the sound of the crowd to cause an avalanche and bury the poor Iron Eagle warriors with a thousand years of snow.

"How many Iron Eagle warriors have died?" Although he didn't want to ask, he had to know.

An Gu said: "There are more than ninety people, and almost all the soldiers of the Iron Eagle Department have died from that unknown poison. ”

The torture technique silently calculated in his heart, and then said: "In this way, the number of people in the Golden Eagle Tribe is about the same as the number of the Ural Khan tribe today, and the number of warriors in the Iron Eagle Department and the number of warriors in the Wolf Head Department are also the same, but now, the Ural Khan tribe has the highest number of people. ”

When Angu heard this, he immediately got up and said, "What do you want to do?" Do you want to go down the mountain and inform the people of the Ural Khan tribe that they will come and attack the Golden Eagle tribe so that you can rescue your companions who are being held hostage? ”

Xingshu shook his head slightly: "During this period of getting along, you should know that I am not that kind of person, if I really only care about the safety of myself and my companions, I don't have to sit here at all and listen to you talk about the attack on the tribe, I can directly take the Sealing Sword and leave." ”

Angu hesitated for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "You can't take the Sealing Blade." ”

Realizing something, he got up and asked, "What do you mean?" ”

An Gu said: "There is a peerless mechanism in the holy hall, if anyone takes away the Sealing Sword, this mechanism will be activated immediately, and the peerless bell on it will fall, sealing the Sealing Knife and the person holding the knife inside!" ”

As soon as he grabbed Angu, Angu's master grabbed the crossbow and deducted the bracket, and the crossbow arrow shot out immediately, but it only flew over the cheek of the torture and shot on the wall next to him.

The torture technique glanced at Master Angu who had put on the crossbow bolt again, and Angu immediately turned around and said in tribal language: "Master, it's okay, put down the crossbow!" ”

Master Angu shook his head slightly, but did not put down his crossbow.

He didn't care so much about the torture technique, he pulled out his dagger and leaned against Angu's throat: "If something happens to my companions, I will definitely let you bury them!" ”

As soon as the torture was finished, a woman from the Golden Eagle tribe crawled out of the tunnel, and the burly woman saw the moment the torture was seen, she immediately raised the short knife in her hand, stood with the master of Angu, and then shouted something towards the mouth of the tunnel.

After the woman finished shouting, another woman crawled out, still dragging a rope in her hand, and when the rope was dragged up, the torture saw Lian Jiuqi and Mo Dui Bridge tied by the rope.

"Mr. Lian, Twilight Bridge! Are you all right? The torture technique dragged Angu to him and took him hostage, "Angu, let them release my companion!" ”

After exchanging words with the woman, Angu replied, "They said they couldn't let it go, because they found out that your companion was going to steal the holy artifact, that is, the Sealing Sword, and I said that you can't take it." ”

The torture technique pressed the blade a little closer to Angu: "You are playing us!?" You know that we can't take away the Sealing Sword, and you deliberately brought us here! ”

Angu smiled: "You are not as smart as I imagined, but, maybe it's because you believe in me too much, from the moment I proposed to cross that cave, I knew that as long as I pretended to be timid and scared, and put on a sincere expression, you would believe me, to be honest, at this point, you should indeed follow Tang Qianrou to learn well, she is much more cunning than you, and she will definitely not believe me so easily." ”

Mo Duqiao gritted his teeth and said, "You *** were lying to us from the beginning, you didn't know that there were ghost bears in that cave, and your purpose was to kill us." ”

Even Jiuqi shook his head and said, "You let us climb up from the icefall in the west, with the idea of dying with us, to be honest, at this point, I admire you." ”

The torture technique grabbed Angu and took a step forward, forcing Angu's master and the other three women back, and the three women put their knives on the necks of Lian Jiuqi and Moduqiao, shouting something.

An Gu said: "It's useless, you can't use me, a vulgar person, as a hostage." ”

"Really?" Torture sneered, "Since you are ready to die for the tribe, then I am ready to fulfill you at any time." As he spoke, he was about to raise his knife and cut it at Angu's throat, but Angu's master immediately threw away the crossbow and shouted something, and the three women hesitated for a moment before taking away the knife that was on the necks of Lian Jiuqi and Moduqiao.

The master of Angu still looked very excited, and said something loudly, and the three women looked at each other, then retreated to the exit of the tunnel, and jumped down one by one.

Lian Jiuqi and Mo Duqiao immediately took the opportunity to come to the side of the torturer, and the torturer hand rose and fell, cutting the rope on their bodies, but the other hand still restrained Angu, holding down the acupuncture point on the back of his neck, not giving him a chance to escape.

"Angu, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust." Torture said coldly, "Tell me how to unlock the Templar mechanism, and we'll leave as soon as we get the Sealing Sword!" ”

Angu frowned, and asked his master in tribal language, Angu's master shook his head, and muttered for a while, Angu relayed: "My master said, don't say it's him, even the tribal leader doesn't know how to unlock that mechanism, no one can take away the Sealing Sword, you still have to die of this heart." ”

Torture pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Where has the leader of your tribe gone?" Where did the others go? ”

Angu looked at his master, and his master also looked at him, his eyes were full of worry, Angu sighed and said: "The rest of the people, go into the mountains to find a way to detoxify, if you can't find it, the Golden Eagle Tribe will be completely finished." ”

"What do you mean?" Lian Jiuqi asked, he and Mo Duqiao didn't know what was going on, the two of them said earlier that they would go into the igloo to take shelter from the wind, but who knew that after entering, they would be ambushed and directly captured by the three women who were as strong as bears.

The torture technique concisely told the events that had happened in the Golden Eagle Tribe in the past few days, and even Jiuqi and Mo Duqiao frowned when they heard it, and after the torture was finished, Mo Dui Qiao immediately said: "We must let them tell them how to unlock the mechanism immediately, and then leave this place." ”

Lian Jiuqi looked at the torture technique and said, "Torture, what do you think?" ”

"I'm not sure if what Angu said is true now, if there is really no way to unlock the mechanism, then we will really die, whether we stay or return to the Ural Khan tribe, we have no chance of living." ”

Lian Jiuqi thought for a while, looked at Angu and said, "Angu, let's make a deal." ”

Angu looked at Lian Jiuqi and shook his head slightly: "What do you want to say?" ”

"I know there's going to be a way to untie the mechanism!" Lian Jiuqi said in a deep voice, "And your tribe also wants to get through it, right?" I don't need you to answer the question of which one you think is more important, you should ask your master. ”

Angu looked at his master and repeated Lian Jiuqi's words in tribal language.

Angu's master looked at Lian Jiuqi, obviously thinking about something, three fingers kept rubbing a piece of herbal leaves, and finally he opened his mouth to say a word, after Angu listened, he said to Lian Jiuqi: "My master asked you, what do you want to do?" ”

Lian Jiuqi asked: "Angu, let me ask you, are the lairs of those so-called mountain demons in the Four Seasons Mountain?" Did your people go to the Four Seasons Mountain to find a way to detoxify? Also, you know very well that the mountain demon succeeds this time, and the next time he comes to attack, he will definitely use this poison to destroy your entire Golden Eagle tribe, which is why your people do not defend the tribe, but want to enter the mountain, so the deal I want to make with you is that you tell us the way to unlock the Hidden Blade mechanism, and we will go into the mountain to help you find a way to detoxify. ”

Lian Jiuqi said so much in one breath, Angu listened carefully, and after carefully brushing it in his heart, he told the master.

The torturer asked on the side: "Mr. Lian, what do you want to do?" ”

The meaning of the torture was clear to even Jiuqi and Mo Duqiao, and what he asked was why he was so sure that he could find a way to detoxify?

Angu's master kept staring at Lian Jiuqi, sitting there thinking about something.

Lian Jiuqi said in a low voice: "Do you remember the notebook that the reed flute handed us?" There is also the so-called mountain demons, the city of Kuhan in the Four Seasons Mountain, I think these are all connected, listening to what you just said, I can be sure that these mountain demons are either immune to that poison, or they have just discovered that poison, but if they have just discovered this poison, don't you think it's too coincidental? It hadn't been discovered for hundreds of years, but it was discovered when we came here, and we used that poison to attack the Golden Eagle tribe. ”

After listening carefully to Lian Jiuqi's words, Angu also subconsciously said, "Yes, why? ”

Mo Duqiao said: "Those mountain demons are not demons at all, maybe they are another primitive tribe living in the Four Seasons Mountain, but they are short in stature, like dwarfs, and because of their appearance, they are regarded as legendary mountain demons by the people of the Golden Eagle Tribe." ”

After that, Mo Duqiao deliberately looked Angu up and down, and said, "Angu, maybe, your background is really related to the mountain demon." ”

Angu frowned and looked at Mo Duqiao, then turned to his master.

Angu's master sat there, and finally said, "I know what the purpose of the mountain demon is, the mountain demon wants to recapture the Sealing Sword. ”

"Recaptured? What is recapture? Angu was stunned and asked again in tribal language, "Master, what do you mean?" Could it be that the Soul Sealing Knife originally belonged to the mountain demon? ”

Anko's master closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, as if he was making a very painful decision.

Finally, Angu's master opened his eyes: "Yes, the Sealing Blade originally belonged to the Mountain Demon, and it was taken from the Four Seasons Mountain together with the Ural Khan tribe hundreds of years ago. ”

An Gu was stupid when he heard this, so he directly pushed away the torture technique that restrained him, and rushed to the master: "Master, what did you say?" ”

"The Sealing Blade was originally snatched back from the Four Seasons Mountain." Angu's master looked at Angu and repeated this fact, which surprised Angu.

The torture art and others behind Angu looked at each other, although they couldn't understand what Angu and his master were saying, but they could also judge from the expressions and tone changes of the two that Lian Jiuqi's words must have led to a shocking secret about the mountain demon.

"This secret is only known to the leaders of every generation of the tribe and the witch doctor." Master Angu sat down and began to speak calmly, "In the Ural Khan tribe, only their leaders and successors have the right to know that our two tribes were originally one ......."

The Ural Khan tribe and the Golden Eagle tribe originated in the period of King Dongdan, that is, after the Khitan prince Yelubei conquered the Bohai Kingdom, it was originally a "suzerain" given to Yelubei by Yelu Abaoji, in other words, it was a descendant army that had a close relationship with the Khitan royal family, but this army came from the Shulu clan, that is, the army of the queen Shuluping's mother's family.

After Yelu Abaoji successfully conquered the Bohai Sea, when the class teacher left Kuhan City and walked to Fuyu, he had to return to the west in a hurry, and he had not had time to really announce who the heir to the throne was.

At that time, the Khitan Dynasty had just been established, and unlike the Han Dynasty, they still could not determine whether to "establish a sage" according to the tradition of the original tribe, or according to the Han Dynasty's consistent "Lichang", to put it bluntly, the Khitan tradition at that time was not who became the crown prince who was eligible to directly succeed as the emperor, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military also needed to discuss together, and the irony is that after the death of Liao Taizu, the first discussion within the Khitan was not the question of who succeeded to the throne, but the way to continue the "Lixian"? Or is it in the way of "standing up"?

Yelu Abaoji and Shuluping have a total of three sons, the eldest son Yelu Bei, the second son Yelu Deguang, the third son Yelu Lihu, these three sons have their own strengths and different personalities, and there are records in the history books left by the Liao State - in the early years, Yelu Abaoji in order to test the three sons, once let the three go out to pick up firewood on a snowy day, the eldest son Yelu Bei selected dry and similar length of firewood and grass, and the second son Yelu Deguang went out after going out, and saw that as long as it could be burned, he directly brought it back. The third son, Yelu Lihu, just picked up some perfunctory things casually.

Yelu Abaoji found from this incident that the eldest son Yelu Bei demanded perfection in his work, the second son had a clear goal and strived for the word "fast", while the third son had neither a sense of responsibility nor any pursuit, which was very different from the two elder brothers.

Therefore, Yelu Abaoji has already decided that Yelu Bei should be his first heir from the beginning, and only he can carry forward the Liao State, and in the Liao State at that time, the number of Han officials is increasing day by day, and Yelu Bei is dedicated to the Han, so the Sinicization forces within the Liao State of course hope that he can inherit the throne smoothly, after all, in the feudal rule at that time, the Confucian principle of governing the country was still respected.

This is the main reason why Yelu Abaoji wants to give this "suzerain" to Yelubei, on the one hand, he hopes that this army can always accompany Yelubei and help him ascend the throne smoothly in the future, and on the other hand, it is also to use this suzerain's army to remind Yelubei that no matter how dedicated to the Han is, he must always remember that he is a Khitan.

At the same time, the second son Yelu Deguang, who is most like Yelu Abaoji in terms of personality, is the most loved by his mother Shu Luping, and the third son Yelu Lihu, who was only 16 years old at the time, was directly excluded from the successor, because he was not only incompetent, but also extremely brutal, and he directly killed the people around him at every turn, and in the end, he didn't even have a real henchman.

In order to allow Yelu Deguang to ascend the throne smoothly, not long after Yelu Abaoji's death, Shu Luping announced that the lord Shaoguo was suspicious and ruled by himself. At that time, the restrictions on women's participation in politics in the Khitan were not as strict as those in the Han Dynasty, and she was originally the founding father and had the title of empress, so she announced that the Linzhao Dynasty would govern, and the Manchu Dynasty civil and military could not object.

After ruling the powerful Shu Luping, he gathered the former ministers of Yelu Abaoji together and asked them, "Emperor Ru Sixian?" ”

Of course, the ministers replied: "How can you not think about receiving the grace of the emperor?" ”

This answer was completely expected by Shu Luping, and she immediately replied: "If you think about it, you should go to see it." ”

It was originally a normal question and answer, but there was a murderous motive hidden in it. When any emperor dies, if you ask those old ministers, do you want to be the first emperor? The old ministers will say that they think about it, they think about it too much, they think about it in their dreams, the first emperor is kind to us.

In other places, I am afraid that the queen will say something moving, but Shu Luping is different, her response is very simple - since you want to, then you can go with him, so that you can meet every day below, and no one cares about you every day when you drink and hang out all night.

Through such a simple question and answer, Shu Luping directly got all the old ministers of Yelu Abaoji to be buried with Yelu Abaoji, and instantly eradicated the strongest force that would hinder his second son Yelu Deguang from ascending the throne.

There is another version in history that Shu Luping called the ladies of those former ministers to his palace and told them: "I am the queen, and I am now widowed, and you should follow my example and be widowed too." ”

After saying that, he dragged the old ministers out and killed them.

Where is this reasonable? I am the queen, I am widowed, and everyone in the world has to accompany me to be widowed? Of course, this is just an extremely ridiculous reason for her, and because of her status, she can't refute it.

No matter which version it is, it can be seen that at that time, in order to pave the way for the second son to ascend the throne, Shu Luping did whatever it took and tried all means, so that later, whenever she encountered ministers who disagreed with her or questioned herself, she would tell him after listening to the other party's opinion: "You may have a point, so do me a favor, you go down and ask the first emperor to see what he means, and then you take the time to come back and tell me the final decision of the first emperor." ”

Then he raised his knife and directly sent the opponents to Huangquan Road to accompany the late Yelu Abaoji. 2k reading web
