Chapter Seventy-Four: News
Sword King's Mansion.
It was about a month since Lin Xiao was captured. In the past month or so, the contemporary Sword King sent people to search the entire territory of the Northern Emperor's Mansion, but Lin Xiao was not found.
Until a day ago, someone in the Sword King Mansion found a large hall hidden in the deep mountains eighty miles outside Shiwang City.
The mountains and rocks in the deep mountains are steep, and the aura is thin. The whole mountain was filled with a strange poisonous mist, so that birds did not fall, and animals did not exist. Those who do not reach the spiritual level will die if they touch it.
In addition, the deep mountains are located on the border between the two countries, so no one cares about them.
At first, the people in the Sword King's Mansion did not pay attention to this deep mountain, but after searching for no result, everyone searched the deep mountain with the mentality of trying.
After this search, the masters in the Sword King's Mansion discovered this hall.
But by the time everyone from the Sword King's Mansion arrived, the hall was already empty. Judging from the traces left in the hall, there were still people alive in the hall not long ago. To be precise, it's not people, it's a large number of demons.
After that, the master of the Sword King's Mansion searched the entire hall and found the teleportation circle in the back hall of the main hall.
Unfortunately, the teleportation circle was destroyed long before everyone arrived. So that where is the other end of the teleportation circle, everyone has no way to find out.
The major cities under the jurisdiction of the Northern Imperial Mansion were all under martial law after Lin Xiao was captured, and those who entered would receive strict interrogation by the guards. In this case, it would be difficult for the demons to take Lin Xiao away.
Judging from the information received so far, the biggest possibility is that the demon clan sent Lin Xiao out of the Northern Imperial Mansion through the teleportation circle in the main hall.
After the master of the Sword King's Mansion informed the Sword King of the news, the Sword King also thought that this was the most reasonable explanation.
If Lin Xiao is still in the Northern Emperor's Mansion, the Sword King believes that Lin Xiao will be rescued one day.
However, the discovery of the main hall showed that Lin Xiao was most likely no longer in the Northern Emperor's Mansion, but was escorted away by the demons. The world is big, and looking for Lin Xiao now is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack.
The current Sword King has been worried since he received this news yesterday. First, the contemporary sword king is very worried about Lin Xiao's safety, and secondly, the contemporary sword king doesn't know how to tell his wife and daughter the news.
Since beating Lin Fanfu's 'wife' and knowing that Lin Xiao was captured, the two of them had trouble sleeping and eating. After some discussion, the two left Purple King City a few days later and came to the Sword King's Mansion.
Then the two of them have lived in the Sword King's Mansion until now, waiting for news.
Contemporary sword kings dream of reuniting with their 'daughters', but now when they meet again, this is the scene. Seeing his wife and daughter' washing her face with tears all day long, the Sword King also sighed.
In the middle of this month, the current Sword King has an unprecedented sense of powerlessness. Although the cultivation of the contemporary Sword King is up to heaven, he can't do anything now.
As soon as the contemporary Sword King stepped into the hall, the Lady of the Sword King and Li 'Yu' Ying greeted him.
The two said in unison: "Is there any news of Xiao'er?"
Their words were full of hope and eagerness.
This month, almost every day. As soon as they saw the contemporary sword king, the two of them opened their mouths with this sentence.
Every time he hears this, the contemporary sword king will feel a wave of guilt. In fact, since yesterday, the contemporary Sword King has recalled the masters of the Sword King Mansion.
If you look for it any longer, nothing will come of it.
But the contemporary sword king didn't dare to tell the two of them this news, for fear that the two would not be able to accept it.
"This ......"
The contemporary sword king is hesitant, and I don't know where to start.
Lin Fan also greeted him and said, "Father has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it. ”
Mrs. Sword King and Li 'Yu' did not leave the house, and they did not know the specific situation of the outside world at all. However, Lin Fan discovered an abnormal phenomenon in the past two days, and since yesterday, the masters of the Sword King Mansion have returned to the mansion one after another.
Lin Fan also stepped forward to ask, but these people were hesitant and did not answer. Later, these people seemed to be deliberately avoiding Lin Fan, which made Lin Fan smell that something was wrong.
Since Lin Fanfu's 'woman' came to the Sword King's Mansion this time, the contemporary Sword King has acquiesced in the relationship between the two and has never objected. From later contact, the contemporary sword king even called Lin Fan "Fan'er".
"Sit down first. ”
After the contemporary sword king finished speaking, he helped his wife to sit down.
After Lin Fanfu's 'women' sat down, the Sword King struggled for a moment before deciding to tell the truth and said, "Actually, it was ...... yesterday."
At that moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside the 'door', and a man burst into the hall.
He bowed deeply to the contemporary Sword King and the Sword King's wife, and said, "Meet the Sword King and his wife." ”
If it was before yesterday, the contemporary sword king would definitely ask eagerly, "Is there any news of Lin Xiao?"
But today, the Sword King didn't say this, but said lightly: "What's the matter?"
The person who came said: "There is a person outside the mansion who claims to be the general of the Guangwang Mansion Guard, asking to see him, saying that he wants to tell him about important matters. ”
"King Guang?"
The contemporary sword king frowned slightly, and he didn't know what the king of Guang had sent at this time, so he said at the moment: "Let him come in." ”
When the man had received the order, he withdrew, and after a moment he brought a man with him, and then he withdrew again.
There are people who come in the dust, but the breath of a soldier is still there, it is Tang Jie, the general of the guard army who came from the Guangwang Mansion.
Tang Jie knelt down on one knee and bowed: "Tang Jie, the general of the guard army of the lowly Guangwang Mansion, meet the Sword King and his wife." ”
The contemporary sword king said lightly: "Get up and speak." ”
Tang Jie got up and said, "I have something important to inform the Sword King about this time. Before leaving the Guangwang Mansion, Young Master Lin Xiao was in the Guangwang City, and the lowly ......"
"What?"
Before Tang Jie finished speaking, the contemporary sword king and the other four suddenly jumped up from their chairs and said in unison.
The contemporary sword king said in disbelief, "Are you telling the truth?"
Tang Jie replied: "It's true. ”
"Ah......h
The hall suddenly erupted in bursts of cheers, which lasted for a long time.
After a long time, the contemporary sword king came to his senses, smiled brightly, and said, "How can Xiao'er be in Guangwang City?"
"That's the case, Young Master Lin Xiao......"
At the moment, Tang Jie will meet the ins and outs of Lin Xiao and Lin Xiao's words of 'handover' one by one.
After Tang Jie finished speaking, the contemporary sword king patted his head and said with a smile: "I should have guessed that Xiao'er was caught in the demon cave, look at my head." ”
Seeing the contemporary sword king patting his head and laughing, like a child, Tang Jie suddenly looked stupid, and said secretly: "Is this still the majestic sword king?"
After a while, the contemporary sword king said again: "The general just said that Xiao'er is going to the Daxing Holy Capital?"
"Exactly. ”
After receiving Tang Jie's reply, the Sword King immediately shouted outside the hall, "Someone is coming." ”
After a while, a person came to the hall from outside the 'door' and respectfully bowed, "What does the Sword King command?"
The Sword King smiled and said, "Arrange it immediately, this king is going to the Holy Capital." ”
The person who came looked suspicious and confused, and looked dazed. Since Lin Xiao was captured, the sword king's husband and wife have never laughed. But now not only the Sword King smiled, but the Sword King's wife was also smiling.
After a while, the person who came reacted and replied, "Yes." ”
After that, the person who came went down to arrange the matter with deep doubts and 'confusion'.
