Chapter 8: The Prince
Under the cliff, Yi Ming actually escaped death, walked away from the ghost gate and came back, opened his eyes leisurely, and saw the so-called Huang Yimu lying on the ground next to him. It turned out that there was a river under this cliff, and he fell into the water and was washed to the shore, so he escaped by luck, otherwise even if he had the power of yin and yang to protect his body, he was afraid that there would be no way to live.
Stretched out his hand to probe Huang Yimu's snort next to him, and found that this kid was not dead, it was really fateful. Yi Ming really wanted to help him, and slapped him to death with one palm, so as to give him a ride. I really like to be nosy, help him get out of danger, and he was seriously injured, it's nothing, and in the end he was attacked by his so-called own people, and now he is half dead, where is this reasonable?
"Forget it, shoot him to death, I'm really sorry to die. β
Resisting the urge to slap him to death with a palm, he dragged him up, set him up, and looked around to see the environment. I found that this place seemed to be unattended, and it was full of flowers and plants, and small snakes crawled past it, as if it was a fairly hidden valley.
"Huh?"
Originally, Yi Ming was still looking everywhere to see if he could be lucky and find any magic medicine to save this kid, but when he looked up, he found a big tree on the cliff, and there were a few round and red fruits growing on the tree, which made people want to eat it at a glance.
Yi Ming knew that the name of this fruit was Zhu Guo, but it was really a living dead, a divine fruit with white flesh and bones, even if ordinary people who refined their bodies ate it, it could also enhance their divine power and save several years of work.
"It seems that your kid's luck is really good, and he shouldn't die. β
Yi Ming couldn't help but sigh, jumped to the tree, and found that there was an eight-foot-high hole next to the tree, which seemed to be enough for a person to enter.
Yi Ming stretched out his hand and was about to pick the fruit, but suddenly felt that someone was watching him from behind, and when he turned around, he found that there was no one, it turned out to be a big snake in the cave staring at him, spitting out red letters, as if this Zhu Guo was its thing, signaling himself to leave.
"Oh, don't be so stingy, I'll pick one, and I won't finish it. β
Yi Ming also knew that most of the heavenly and earthly treasures were guarded by strange beasts, but he was not afraid of it, his left eye shot out a blazing golden light, and his right eye shot out a cold white light, which shot straight into the eyes of the big snake.
The big snake suffered a loss unexpectedly, his eyes were shot painfully, and he found that this was a hard stubble, which was not easy to provoke, so he crawled and retreated a few feet, looking at it from a distance, as if he was afraid that Yi Ming's words would not count.
Yi Ming smiled dumbly when he saw this, picked a fruit casually, jumped down, came to Huang Yimu's side, and fed him to take it.
The fruit was so miraculous that after a while, the half-dead man opened his eyes leisurely and looked around in confusion.
"Where am I?"
stared at Yi Ming for a while, and then remembered.
"Benefactor, did you save me again? I really don't know how to repay your great kindness. β
Hearing this, Yi Ming was angry, and repaid the favor, I have a few lives enough for you to repay.
Suddenly, Yi Ming grabbed Huang Yimu's neck and asked fiercely, "Say, who are you?"
"Benefactor, benefactor, don't, I'm Huang Yimu, the Huang family in the summer capital, cough cough ......"
Yi Ming heard that he was still talking nonsense, and he was impatient, and the force on his hand increased, pinching him so much that he couldn't breathe.
"Huang family, just a son of the Huang family will make a few masters in the imperial city respectful? At first, those black-clothed people wanted to arrest you alive, and then your so-called own people were respectful to you on the surface, but behind the scenes, they were dead. I saved you twice, and you dare to lie to me?"
The more Yi Ming spoke, the more angry he became, he was kind enough to help him, but he was not honest.
Seeing that he was about to be suffocated, Huang Yimu hurriedly squeezed out a few words with his last strength.
"I, I say, I say!"
Yi Ming put him down.
"My real surname is Ji, my name is Huai, you can also call me Xia Huai. β
"Xia Huai?
Today's monarch of Great Xia is surnamed Xi, of course, there are two tribes such as Shen Cheng and Shen Guan also have the same surname as Xia Hou, but if it can be called "Xia Huai", it can only be a child of the royal family.
"You're half-telling the truth. Yi Ming recalled these two names, but felt that this kid was a little clever.
"I am indeed a child of the royal family, to be precise, my father is the current Majesty Xia Houzhu, and I am his fourth son. "Huang Yimu, now the prince of Great Xia, said in a low voice, he didn't dare to be dishonest at this moment.
"I see. Yi Ming didn't expect that he would save the prince of Great Xia casually, he grew up in the Yi clan since he was a child, and he didn't know anything about the royal family. "What about the two teams, why did one group capture you alive and the other group want to kill you?"
"I really didn't know about the group of black-clothed people at the beginning, it must be a tribe that is at odds with my Xia Hou clan, and they want to arrest me to threaten my father. The team of people in the back is indeed the guards of my imperial city," Xia Huai thought for a while, and said hatefully: "Damn, they must be my second brother's people, my second brother is in charge of the guards of the outer city, they must have killed me when they saw that we were seriously injured and it was a good opportunity." Damn!"
"It seems that this prince is not so naΓ―ve. Yi Ming secretly thought that he didn't want to hear too much about the royal strife.
"Brother Yi Ming, you are the son of Yi Yuan, the leader of the Yi clan, I heard my father talk about it before. You're really amazing, and it's really thanks to you this time. Xia Huai seemed to regain his innocence and asked with a look of adoration.
"No, I'm not qualified to be your big brother. Yi Ming was convinced, I really don't know if this kid is pretending to be stupid or really naΓ―ve.
"Hmph, my brothers in the palace are all smiling at me on the surface, who knows what tricks are behind the scenes. Xia Huai said indignantly, turned his head and changed his face again, "But you are different, you are cold on the surface, but you are a knife mouth tofu heart, I can see that your heart is hot." I'll recognize you as my big brother. β
Yi Ming couldn't help but sigh after hearing this, this kid is also quite pitiful, he is really a ruthless emperor's family, born in that environment, he can't survive without intrigue, hiding a knife in his smile. Although he smiled on the surface and did not say a word of truth, Yi Ming could see the loneliness in his eyes, as well as his yearning and envy for himself, this kid's nature is not bad. Yi Ming thought for a while, nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll take you as a little brother. β
"Really!" Xia Huai was overjoyed, and hurriedly bowed respectfully, "Xia Huai greeted the eldest brother." β
Yi Ming also returned the salute and accepted the prince as his little brother, which seemed to be quite good.
"Hey, big brother, the fruit on that tree seems to be a vermilion fruit, this is a good thing, let's go pick it and eat it." Xia Huai looked up and saw the fruit tree, and clapped his hands excitedly.
"I already picked one for you to eat, otherwise how do you think you survived? Yi Ming was speechless, "There's a hole in there, and there's a big snake guarding the fruit, so let's not finish picking it." β
"Oh, I see. Xia Huai was a little disappointed, but he turned his face and thought of other ideas, "Then let's go to that cave and have a look." β
Looking at this naΓ―ve "little brother", Yi Ming had no choice but to agree. Jumped up with him and landed at the entrance of the cave.
The serpent hurried out, and when he saw that the thief who had picked his fruit had not yet left, he had brought another person, and he immediately looked on guard, as if he were facing a great enemy.
Yi Ming hurriedly smiled: "Don't think about it, we won't pick your fruit, we just want to go into the cave and have a look." β
The big snake is quite human, and seems to understand Yi Ming's words, but how can he agree, let the two of them come in and not lead thieves into the house?
Yi Ming saw that the big snake refused, his eyes were cold, and he knew that it was hard, and punched the rock wall of the cave.
"Boom!"
I saw that the whole hole was shaking, and it seemed to be about to collapse.
The situation is stronger than people, and I have to bow my head. Seeing that this person was really not easy to mess with, the big snake might really have no home for a while, so he was forced to climb to the side and get out of the way.
Yi Ming smiled when he saw this, and walked in with Xia Huai, who didn't forget to grimace at the big snake when he passed by, making the big snake dare to be angry and dare not speak.
Although this hole is not big, it is still quite long, and it is easy to see the golden light and illuminate the front, which makes the hole bright and bright.
"By the way, your strength is not strong, what are you doing in this mountain?"
"Big brother, although my strength is far worse than yours, is it okay?" Xia Huai said helplessly, "And I don't rely on strength, I've been lucky since I was a child." β
"Luck?"
"Yes, I've been through so many assassinations since I was a kid and I've survived, and I can pick up good things when I go out. This time, I was bored in the city, so I came out to see if I could pick up good things, look, isn't this finding a good big brother. β
Listening to Xia Huai, he was quite happy, Yi Ming smiled dumbly, this kid turned out to be a thing.
"You see, I was in distress twice, and both times my eldest brother saved me, isn't this just good luck, and I can also know you, eldest brother, this is really a great luck. Xia Huai said excitedly, the more he talked, the more he admired his luck.
"Okay, okay, you're in luck. β
Yi Ming has such a little brother, and he also feels a little helpless.
After a while, the two of them passed through this narrow path, and suddenly realized that there was a hole in it. The cave is three feet high, and there are large and small objects scattered everywhere inside, some of which also glow faintly, and you can tell that they are good things at a glance.
"Haha, so many good things, big brother, I'll just say I'm lucky, you still don't believe it. Xia Huai was so happy that she almost jumped.
Yi Ming also had to be convinced, this time he really relied on this kid's luck to find this, and he encountered so many good things. Seeing the corners of the beads, the beads that were bubbling with cold light, Yi Ming knew that they were ice beads made of condensed thousands of years of cold ice, and there was a fire source jade that could only be condensed by ten thousand years of earth fire on the side.
