Chapter 19: The Ending

Previous Chapter

The next day, Sirius divided all the gold and silver treasures among them, as agreed, and he stood at the front of the group and said, "One for each of the surviving brothers, and two for each of the fallen brothers, and I know that you may meet in another place, and I beg you to see them again, and speak for me...... I'll never forget them. ”

He looked at Tao Ruo and the others: "I have already asked people to cast a few gold medals, and I will give them to you when the time comes, keep them as a souvenir." ”

A moment later, Sirius was about to leave, and the Raven Man walked up to him and said, "Your Royal Highness, I always feel that something is wrong when I go to Luoyang, the eastern capital, this time, could it be that it is not the Duke of Tang who summoned you, but the fake second son?" ”

Sirius froze for a moment, and he looked at the Raven Man, "Why do you say that?" ”

Raven said: "He won't easily give up everything he has now, seeing that the country is at his fingertips, but you want to go back, how can he easily admit defeat?" ”

He pleaded, "Your Highness, let me be your personal bodyguard. ”

Sirius nodded, "It's okay, I'm a little more at ease with you by my side." ”

Raven Man laughed and said, "I know him very well, after all, I have also secretly protected him. ”

Sirius frowned slightly, "You protected him?" ”

The crow man hurriedly said: "After His Royal Highness the Prince left the Tang Prince's mansion, the Tang Duke also asked me to continue to protect the fake second son, but it didn't take long, only half a year, and I was transferred. ”

Sirius snorted, "Since you know him, tell me about this person on the way." ”

In fact, there is no road, because there is Shi Shiliang.

The heavens and the earth trembled again, dark clouds shrouded, everyone was used to such a scene, everyone was not shocked, and even wanted to ask if there was melon seeds and peanut mineral water when teleporting.

The eastern capital is Luoyang.

When Sirius arrived with the army, he found that the situation was not right, the city gate was open, the banner of the Tang army was planted on the city wall, the battlefield had not been cleaned, and the ground was full of corpses, which looked extremely miserable.

The siege of the city seems to have just ended, and the Tang army has already entered the city of Luoyang.

The madman shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm the last to return to the team, I want to ask you, is this right way to clear the customs without fighting?" ”

Brother Ben smiled: "Believe me, we fought so fiercely in Beibi Cottage before, that's wrong." ”

Yun Feiyang said: "Yes, when I first arrived, I felt that since I came but didn't work so badly, we should participate in it and have a sense of experience, but when I hit the Beibi cottage before, I realized that it was really fragrant for nothing." ”

The Absolute Crazy Dragon said: "Let's go, go into the city and see what the scene is when our last one gets something for nothing." ”

At this time, a group of cavalry came out of the city gate, led by the general who gave Sirius an order, he saw Sirius and dismounted and saluted, clasped his fists and said: "General Sirius, you are late, Tang Gong's army has broken through Luoyang, and now he is waiting for you in Wang Shichong's mansion." ”

Sirius nodded, "Alright, you lead the way." ”

Everyone wanted to follow forward, but the general waved his hand to stop him: "Tang Gong has an order, General Sirius's army is stationed outside the city, there is chaos in the city, there will inevitably be conflicts, it is better for you to stay outside." ”

He swept through the crowd and said with a smile: "But Tang Gong also said that all the main generals can enter the city to see him, and he also wants to meet you." ”

Luoyang City, Sirius and others walked towards Wang Shichong's general's mansion, and when they were just halfway there, a team of cavalry suddenly came, and the leader stopped everyone, saying that Tang Gong had gone to the palace in the eastern capital, and asked them to go directly to the palace to meet, so everyone changed directions and went down to the palace under the guidance of the messenger.

The scale of the palace group in Luoyang City is not small, there are warriors wearing iron armor guarding the main gate of the palace, and the city walls are all Tang soldiers.

The captain looked at everyone around, and then said, "If you want to see Tang Gong, you need to hand over all your weapons." ”

Everyone looked at each other, and it was not good to break the rules, so they handed over all the weapons, Jiang Shan looked at the person who was going to come to search and asked: "Is my fan a weapon?" ”

The soldier glanced back at the captain, who waved his hand: "The fan doesn't count, keep it for him." ”

Jiang Shan immediately smiled.

The people were led into the palace by the soldiers, and walked along the flat stone path while looking at the scenery in the palace.

When they arrived outside the main hall of the palace, they were stopped again, and the guards said that they would go in and tell Tang Gong to wait outside, and only after a while did anyone come out, and checked again to make sure that they had no weapons before putting them in.

Everyone entered the main hall, as soon as they entered the door, the door of the main hall was closed, and there was a squeak in the quiet hall, which seemed a little harsh, and soon, all the doors and windows of the hall were closed, and it seemed a little dim for a moment.

The lights were lit one by one, and everyone felt that something was wrong.

"I've been waiting for you to come back."

The voice came from the main seat of the main hall, and everyone looked up and saw a man in iron armor sitting on the gilded dragon chair, with a mask of blue fangs on his face, which made people shudder to look at it.

Sirius walked slowly, seemingly unexpectedly.

"I probably thought you were going to see me."

Sirius looked at the Man in the Iron Mask, "You would be very reluctant if you gave it back to me without resisting at all." ”

The Man in the Iron Mask laughed, and the laughter echoed through the hall, looking a little eerie.

"People are really weird."

The Man in the Iron Mask sat up straight and looked down at Sirius: "When I was a child, I was taken to the Tang Mansion, and he told me with a serious face that you will be my son from today onwards, and at that time I thought, why am I your son?" Who would have thought that today, more than ten years later, I am thinking ...... Why am I not his son? ”

He got up and left the dragon chair, the iron armor on his body grinding against each other.

"What happened to your father?"

Sirius asked.

"Hahahaha......"

The Man in the Iron Mask laughed and said, "You are embarrassed to say the word father, does he have anything to do with you?" But I can tell you, of course I won't do anything to him, he just slept in the general's mansion, and I can also tell you that it wasn't he who summoned you back, but I sent someone to fake the military order, and he didn't know that you were back, and by the time he knew, it would have been too late. ”

Sirius shook his head slightly, "You're really crazy." ”

"You're crazy!"

The man in the iron mask stretched out his hand and pointed at Sirius and said angrily: "I have worked hard all these years, I have not dared to slack off for a day, I have studied hard, the art of war, martial arts, and well-read, I am just not convinced, I just want to replace you really, how good it is for you to die outside, what are you doing when you come back?" ”

Sirius said, "Over the years, if you could find me, you would have sent someone to attack me countless times. ”

The Man in the Iron Mask snorted, "Do you need countless times?" It's enough to kill you once. ”

He waved his hand violently: "Don't let any of them go!" ”

With a snort, countless armor soldiers rushed from all around the main hall, the long knives in their hands were already unsheathed, and they surrounded everyone.

"I know these helpers of yours are amazing, and even some of them are invulnerable."

The Man in the Iron Mask sneered and said, "But I have prepared a gift for you. ”

The long knives of those armor soldiers reflected a dark green dark light under the illumination of the lamp, and everyone's weapons were like this, Tao Ruo glanced at it, and his face changed slightly: "The knife is poisonous." ”

"Wait a minute!"

At this moment, someone next to Sirius shouted, and everyone looked over and saw that the person who shouted was a crow man.

The crow man raised his hands and said, "Second son, I'm from your side, do you remember that I also protected you?" I don't want to die with them, Second Son, you keep me useful, you killed Sirius, I can testify for you in front of Tang Gong, you are the real Second Son, you are Sirius, the dead is a fake, he has been away from home for so many years, Tang Gong doesn't know what he looks like at all, I still have a delicate mask here, the Son of the World will appear in front of Tang Gong with a mask in the future, he can't tell it, my mask is ingenious, as long as the Second Prince promises to spare me, I can give it to you now. ”

The Man in the Iron Mask laughed, looked at Sirius, and said, "Look, your people know more about current affairs than you do. ”

He pointed to the Raven Man: "Bring the thing!" ”

The Raven Man hurriedly trotted over, picking up the package behind him as he ran, he ran to the Man in the Iron Mask, and slowly opened the package: "This mask is made by me, and it is almost the same as a real human face." ”

As he spoke, he suddenly took out a dagger from his package and stabbed it at the Man in the Iron Mask.

The Man in the Iron Mask seemed to be on guard, and kicked the Raven Man in the chest, and the Raven Man flew backwards with a muffled snort.

"Hmph, carving insect skills!"

The Man in the Iron Mask snorted contemptuously.

The Raven Man was kicked back, and Sirius immediately went up to hold him up, "How are you?" ”

The crow man spat out a mouthful of blood and said apologetically, "I'm sorry Shizi, I didn't succeed...... Shizi, you go quickly, I can still fight, and I will break the queen for you. ”

Sirius shook his head and said, "I'll help you up, you go to the back....."

Poof.

The Raven Man suddenly jumped to his feet and kicked Sirius with both feet, and the Raven flew to the high platform, and Sirius fell to the ground, looking down to see that he had a dagger stuck in his stomach, which was the same one that the Raven had just prepared to sneak up on the Iron Mask.

"Hahahaha, you can't think of it!"

The Man in the Iron Mask laughed, and he patted the Raven Man on the shoulder, "Good job." ”

The crow man smiled: "Duke Tang doesn't trust me, and arranged me to a place where birds don't, even if Duke Tang ascends the throne and becomes emperor in the future, he will forget me and leave me there and ignore me, I'm like an outcast, is this fair?" ”

He looked at Sirius, "Don't blame me, it's your own bad life, in fact, you should have died a long time ago, didn't you?" If it weren't for my secret protection, the people sent by Yang Jian would have already killed you. ”

Sirius struggled to his feet, and he himself pulled the dagger out of his stomach, and the blood that came out of the wound was black, and the dagger was poisonous.

Tao Ruo walked up to him and squatted down, stuffed a pill into Sirius's mouth, and then pressed Sirius's wound with both hands, her hands emitted a faint white light, and after a while, Sirius was actually fine, his original pale face had recovered, and the blood from the wound had stopped.

He stood up and took a deep breath.

"You didn't think of it, you can't kill me."

The Man in the Iron Mask was obviously taken aback, and so was the Raven Man, the poison on the dagger was highly poisonous, and he was very sure that he had not been able to kill Sirius in this way, it was absolutely unbelievable.

"Kill them!"

The Man in the Iron Mask roared.

The armor soldiers around them immediately rushed towards Sirius, but just then they heard someone laugh softly.

"If it were in the Datang Musou game world, no one would think that my fan was not a weapon."

Jiangshan's folding fan snapped open, and then rose up in the air, and his body spun rapidly in mid-air, and in the fan, dense hidden weapons flew out like a rainstorm, and the armor soldiers who rushed over were hit by hidden weapons one by one.

With such a small hidden weapon, it stands to reason that even if it is hit, it will not die immediately, but the people who were hit all lost their strength in an instant, and they died of foaming at the mouth shortly after falling to the ground.

Sirius subconsciously looked at Taoruo: "You prepared it?" ”

Tao Ruo shrugged her shoulders: "You're welcome." ”

She looked at the crow man: "You can't have the heart to hurt people, you can't have the heart to prevent people, I am a healer, good at medicine, but if I say that there are few people who know more about poison than me, at least, you can't, if you don't do it, my poison will not be of any use." ”

All the armorers in the main hall fell, and for a while, the main hall seemed to be empty.

The Man in the Iron Mask pushed the Raven Man out, "You killed them!" ”

He turned around and ran on his own.

At the moment when he turned around, the madman was at his feet, a huge force exploded, the stone slabs under his feet were crushed, he shot out like a cannonball, his elbow hit the back of the man in the iron mask in front of him, the man in the iron mask was knocked down by a blow, the madman leaned down and grabbed his iron armor and lifted the man up, raised one arm above his head, and then fell to the ground again.

With a thud, the Man in the Iron Mask suddenly lost his ability to resist.

"Despicable villain."

The madman snorted and kicked the Man in the Iron Mask in front of Sirius.

Sirius crouched down and reached out to take off the iron mask, under which was a terrified face, already a little distorted with fright, but it did look a little similar to him.

The Man in the Iron Mask stammered: "I admit defeat, you let me go, I promise not to come back in the future, I will go away, I just ask you to spare my life." ”

Sirius sighed: "Actually, you are also a poor person, if I were you, I would fight, I would fight." ”

The man in the iron mask was stunned: "You promised to let me go?" ”

"Nope."

Sirius stabbed the poisoned dagger in his hand into the heart of the Man in the Iron Mask, and he got up to look at the Raven Man: "When you do it, just stab me like this, next time you must remember not to give people a chance to fight back." ”

The Raven Man turned and ran.

Sirius slowly put the iron mask on his face, the Raven Man had already opened the door of the main hall and ran out, and Sirius, who was wearing the iron mask, strode to the door and stretched out his finger: "He tried to assassinate me, kill him!" ”

Outside the main hall were the soldiers of the Man in the Iron Mask, but now Sirius was the Man in the Iron Mask.

A feathered arrow flew by, and the Raven Man was shot into a hedgehog.

Sirius looked back at Taoruo and them, and after a moment of silence, he leaned over and bowed: "Thank you for your help, your kindness, your affection, I will never forget." ”

He looked up, was silent for a while, and then said, "Now I'm going home." ”

Shi Shiliang, who was standing beside everyone, smiled: "It's time for them to go home too." ”

postscript

Xi'an, under the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, several people came from different directions, they walked to the Big Wild Goose Pagoda, looked at each other, and then invariably took out something from their pockets, shining in the sun.

It was a palm-sized gold medal, and there were four words on the front of the gold medal, and the general trend of the world was turned over, and there were four words on the back.

Datang Wushuang.

Several people looked at each other and laughed.
