Volume 1 Chapter 2 Awakening

When Liu Yang woke up at night, he was already in a camp. The charcoal fire in the brazier spread the temperature to resist the cold outside the tent, and the camp tent was very quiet, but through the firelight, Liu Yang saw two tall figures guarding the door. They were like two statues, clad in heavy black armor without saying a word.

"Where the hell is this?" Liu Yang felt a little uneasy in his heart, no matter how slow he was to think about what had happened before, he knew that he might be in an unknown environment.

For two whole days, no one came, except for the food that was delivered at the regular time every day. The food was very basic, it was all barbecue meat with some salt.

When the food was brought again outside the tent, Liu Yang tried to rush out of the door with uneasiness.

"Sonorous"

The cold blade touched the skin on his neck, and Liu Yangxin raised it to his throat. He said in a trembling voice, "Who are you, and why are you imprisoning me?" in response to him were two pairs of indifferent eyes behind the iron armor mask.

Liu Yang's face changed, his body slowly retreated, and the cold blade on his neck disappeared. The more the other party was like this, the more uneasy he became, and he shouted and scolded hoarsely, but the two statue-like figures at the door were unmoved, as long as Liu Yang did not step out of the tent, they would not make any move.

At the same time, a figure as tall as a demon god in another tent fell to one knee. A pale appeared on his knife-like face, not only because of the wounds in his body, but also because he had been in this position for two whole days, not to mention the food, not even half a drop of water. No one could have imagined that the leader of the Black Guards would express his guilt in such a way that bordered on humiliation.

In front of him, there was a back. It's not very tall, but it feels so unattainable. The figure had been facing away from him for two days, without the slightest sound, like a cold idol without the slightest emotion.

"Zhao Jiu, how long have you been with me?"

There was silence for some time, and the figure made a sound.

"Twenty-three years. ”

Hearing the voice, Zhao Jiu was shocked, and looked at the back in front of him with awe-inspiring eyes.

"I remember that you just arrived in Liu's Mansion that year, and the third child was also just born, time really flies. ”

Hearing this, Zhao Jiu didn't feel any emotion, on the contrary, he was even more frightened. Fine sweat oozed from his forehead, and he said in a trembling voice: "I'm sorry for the cultivation of the adults and the failure to protect the third young master, please give me another chance to redeem my merits." ”

"My Liu family is the only one left with such a lone seedling but died, and you didn't leave the murderer!"

His voice stopped abruptly, and Zhao Jiu's mood was even more turbulent, and the beads of sweat on his forehead became the size of a thumb and kept dripping.

"Spare your life!"

Zhao Jiu's head slammed into the ground, making a muffled noise. Following the person in front of him for more than 20 years, he knows very well the heart of Liu Yong, the head of the Liu Mansion, and has no affection for losers and enemies.

In a hurry, he had a flash of inspiration, and suddenly said: "My lord, I brought back a person this time, you might as well see him first before thinking about dealing with his subordinates." ”

"Huh?"

Liu Yong turned his back to Zhao Jiu, but there was a hint of fluctuation in his calm tone.

Seeing that things were taking a turn for the better, Zhao Jiu hurriedly signaled his subordinates outside the big tent to go and bring people. At this moment, he was undecided, but he was secretly glad that the old man Wang had brought back this person. According to the situation reported by Old Man Wang, this person's appearance is similar to that of the third young master.

When Liu Yang was inexplicably taken to the big tent, he only saw two figures inside. One knelt on one knee with a frightened expression, while the other faced an ancient painting on the tent with his hands in his hands, leaving only a lonely back.

I don't know why, looking at this back, Liu Yang was a little surprised, and the graceful and noble aura of the other party came to his face, which naturally made people feel a sense of awe.

"Don't kneel down yet, see Lord Liu. Seeing that Liu Yang was a little stunned, Zhao Jiu hurriedly signaled.

"Kneel?" Liu Yang swallowed his saliva, what kind of place is this, and he actually let himself kneel. In his faith, he knelt down to his parents, but he did not have the concept of kneeling to strangers.

"Don't kneel. Liu Yang's head shook like a rattle.

Looking at Liu Yang's resistant look, Zhao Jiu secretly complained in his heart, the person brought back by the old man Wang was not only wearing strange clothes, but also this temper was so weird, the rules of the Liu Mansion were strict, if the subordinates saw the master and did not show courtesy, they would be punished if they were seriously injured, and they would directly fill the well. What's more, now that Lord Liu is experiencing the pain of losing his son, who dares to provoke him indiscriminately.

"Forget it, let's get it. ”

There was a hint of tiredness in Liu Yong's tone, he turned around slowly, his deep eyes swept over Zhao Jiu, and finally landed on Liu Yang's body. His calm eyes fluctuated and glowed with a strange color. Zhao Jiu was right, what was surprising was that the appearance of the person in front of him was six or seven points similar to the dead third son, if it weren't for the fact that he didn't leave other heirs when he was young, I am afraid that he would really think that he was a descendant of his own bloodline.

Liu Yang was a little uncomfortable, the other party's eyes were so deep that they were like black holes, making people unable to see the bottom. Under such a gaze, everything about him seems to have nowhere to hide.

Liu Yong stared at Liu Yang like this for half an hour before finally moving his eyes to Zhao Jiu again.

"Get up. ”

At this moment, Zhao Jiu looked a little apprehensive and got up slowly. On the ground, there was a small hole smashed out of his forehead, which made Liu Yang next to him look at it in amazement.

"Come, carry up. ”

As soon as Liu Yong's words fell, two black-armored guards carried a corpse in. When Liu Yang saw the young face on the corpse, he couldn't help but be a little frightened, this dead young man actually had a face six or seven points similar to himself, how could it be such a coincidence?

"He's my dead son?"

Liu Yong stroked the young man's cheek and said slowly: "Anyone in my Liu Mansion can die, but the only remaining direct parents and children must not die. If you die, do you know what it means?"

He looked at Zhao Jiu with a deep gaze, and then said: "It means that the Liu Mansion has lost a title that has been inherited for a hundred years, and when the Liu Mansion does not exist, even the clans will be suppressed." ”

"The subordinates understand. Zhao Jiu's heart tightened, he knew very well how important the relationship between what happened here today was, it was difficult for the entire Daqian Empire to obtain the inherited title, not to mention the title of holding real power like Liu Fu, and it was the object of attraction from all parties.

"Do you want me to pretend to be your son?" Liu Yang was not stupid, and instantly understood. He suddenly had a big head and hurriedly said: "But I have a job, I have to go home, my home is in H City, have you heard of it?"

He looked at the two of them eagerly, hoping to get the answer he wanted from the other.

"Nonsense. Zhao Jiu's expression was cold, he knew that he and Liu Yang in front of him were destined to be on the line, where could he easily let the other party go, and he had never heard the name of the place Liu Yang said.

"Do you have a home?" Liu Yong raised his head slowly, and a fierce color flashed in his eyes.

Looking at his appearance, Zhao Jiu's heart was cold.

"My home is at No. 8, 304 Street, District B, H City. Liu Yang hesitated, but still said it.

"Zhao Jiu. ”

Glancing at Liu Yang, Liu Yong said calmly to Zhao Jiu: "Send someone to investigate, no matter where it is in the Daqian Empire, if you find this address, all the people will be killed." ”

"Yes. ”

"Slaughter them all?" Liu Yang's brain roared, and he subconsciously rushed up and smashed his fist on Liu Yong's face.

"Bang" a big hand, directly forced him to the ground, making a muffled sound.

"Dare to be disrespectful to adults, do you want to die?"

Zhao Jiu's face was cold, and he easily pressed Liu Yang's head to the ground.

"In the future, you will have only one home, which is my Liu Mansion. If there were any other homes, they would be in ruins. Liu Yong's voice became a little cold.

"You wicked man! I will not die to pretend to be your son. Liu Yang was furious, and although he was held down by Zhao Jiu's hand, he roared like a beast.

"How hard is it to die? I can make your life worse than death. Liu Yong's face sank, and his deep eyes became extremely cold, like death in the dark night.

"I'm not afraid!" Liu Yang was originally a stubborn person, not to mention facing such a ruthless person who planned to kill his family when he came up.

"Get into the prisoner car. ”

"But adults ......"

Hearing the word "prisoner car", Zhao Jiu couldn't help but tremble, the environment on the prisoner car can be said to be extremely cruel, even if a person who practices martial arts can't survive for a few days without eating or drinking, not to mention that Liu Yanggen in front of him is mediocre and has no force.

"Do you want me to say it again?"

Seeing that Liu Yong's eyes were getting colder and colder, Zhao Jiu hurriedly agreed, and carried him out of the big tent like a rabbit.

After Zhao Jiu left, Liu Yong's gloom dissipated. Behind him, a figure stepped out of the shadows. The man looked to be in his thirties, without a beard, and his white face was sickly pale. He is none other than Liu Yong's most relied on strategist, Zhuge Qingfeng.

"Brother Liu's day mourning, the turbulent wind and rain are coming, you have to hold on. ”

"I'm not worried about the wind and rain, but about people's hearts. ”

Liu Yong closed his eyes a little tiredly, he just didn't reveal much of the pain of a white-haired person sending black-haired, because he was the backbone of the entire Liu Mansion, and he couldn't afford to have too much time to grieve.

"This time I went back to Puyang City, but it was the time to witness people's hearts. Zhuge Qingfeng's eyes froze, and through the tent, he seemed to see a big city that had stood for countless years in the distance.

"What do you think, kid?"

"Very stubborn, and not very smart. Zhuge Qingfeng and Liu Yong know the bottom line and know each other's thoughts

There is no hiding from saying what you think.

"Indeed, but because of this, I have a little more confidence to return to Puyang City this time. ”

"Oh?" Hearing this, Zhuge Qingfeng became a little interested.

"In a few days, you'll know. Liu Yong smiled reluctantly, and his expression regained his confidence as a strategist.

The environment of the prisoner car is indeed very bad, there is no charcoal fire to warm up at night, there is no curtain to shade the sun in the daylight, and even the strongest people can hardly endure this kind of torture without eating or drinking.

Relying on his very tenacious willpower, Liu Yang held on for three days. The sun was already intense in this suburb, and his white skin was densely cracked under the scorching sun, revealing slashes like swords, and blood oozed out and dried up again and again. At night, the cold wind in the suburbs is as sharp as ice blades, even heavy clothes are difficult to resist, not to mention that Liu Yang is just wearing thin clothes.

Zhao Jiu was in charge of taking care of the side, even if he was a ruthless person who fought in the iron-blooded and ruthless field, he couldn't help but feel compassion when he saw this kind of scene, Liu Yang didn't say a word for three days, let alone begging for mercy and other actions.
