Chapter Twenty-Three: Yellow Springs Open the Way

He knew in his heart that these things were understood by Su Yuqi's mind, and he didn't need to mention it at all, but he was only afraid that with Su Yuqi's character, he would understand everything, and he would be willing to give up the friendship between the two mansions, and ask for that bet for some purpose that he didn't know yet.

In addition, although he didn't know why Su Yuqi would make such a bet, with his understanding of Su Yuqi, Su Yuqi would never be bored enough to play such a bloody game.

Su Yuqi walked up to Yu Ye, stopped, his eyes narrowed, and his face was cold: "Have you ever heard that what Su Yuqi said is not a word?" ”

Su Yuqi, who was so strong, was even a little gloomy, and Ye couldn't help frowning: "Why?" Su Yuqi, why do you have to do this? Although they are warriors, they are also living beings. ”

"Fresh life? I remember that you had just killed a living life with your hands during the day. ”

Su Yuqi's eyes became colder.

"That's because ......" Dish Ye suddenly couldn't go on. No matter who Keiji died at, it is impossible to deny the fact that he signed a life and death pact with him.

If there were no outsiders intervening today, there is no guarantee that Kuiji will not die at his hands.

That's just the way it is.

Su Yuqi suddenly sneered and turned upstairs, and threw down a cold sentence to Pan Ye: "Tomorrow's business, I still need you to accompany you, after all, you are not an outsider." ”

After watching Su Yuqi's straight back disappear at the door of the upstairs bedroom, after a long time, he picked up a cup of cold tea on the table, poked it, and said, "Okay." ”

The voice was very soft and did not reach Su Yuqi's ears upstairs.

He didn't mean it to Su Yuqi. He thought that he should have said this to himself.

Su Yuqi, the man who dragged him into the fire pit. He actually had the ability to stay away from this fire pit, but now he didn't want to. He wanted to stay in the fire pit for this man. This half-sized lad full of charisma.

It's a really powerless idea to say. He drank the cup of cold tea and got up and went upstairs.

Cold tea in the stomach does not make the mind calm for half a minute.

Before dawn the next day, Su Yuqi had already gotten up, dressed neatly, entered the palace, finished handling the government affairs at hand as quickly as possible, and rushed back to the house at the end of the day.

Zhou Ye had already packed up and waited in the study in the front yard, Su Yuqi was outside the gate of the mansion, and ordered someone to go in to call him, while he waited outside the gate of the mansion.

Zhou Ye came out quickly, and Su Jia accompanied the two to ride a horse.

Su Yuqi met Qi Yunxiang in the court today, but he also exchanged a few words of greeting, and Qi Yunxiang did not say a word about Kuizhi's death. When he went to the next court, Su Yuqi went to the Eastern Court to deal with some important military affairs, but he didn't see Qi Yunxiang's whereabouts. But according to Su Jia, Qi Yunxiang left directly after leaving the court and did not return to Xiting.

As for where it went, it is unknown.

Su Yuqi guessed that he had returned home.

Because if what Pan Ye said is true, today's trip to King Qi's Mansion will cause trouble. As the head of the Qi Wangfu, how can he not live up to the responsibility of being a family member?

King Qi's Mansion is not far from King Su's Mansion, and it takes a quarter of an hour to ride a horse. A quarter of an hour's road, it is expected that there will be no accidents, but unexpectedly, on this short road of more than ten miles, there was an accident.

The horses of the three of them had only left Su Wang's Mansion less than five miles, and on a relatively quiet street, they were suddenly stopped by someone on the street.

Su Yuqi has never returned to the house to change his clothes, so he still has a court dress on his body, a court dress embroidered with gold silk dragon patterns in jujube red, and he is a three-year-old child in Tancheng today, and he doesn't know anyone. Who didn't hurry up and retreat when they saw it? If someone comes, dare to stop it.

"Duh, who is in front of you, who dares to stop the horse of the prince of Chaoqi!" Su Jia shouted in a deep voice.

Su Yuqi rode on a tall horse and looked down coldly at the person who stopped the horse. The one who stopped the horse was a woman, seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed plainly and neatly, and her appearance was quite neat.

"The one who is in the way is the horse of the prince of Chaoqi!" The woman shouted.

"Bold! Knowing that it is the horse of the prince of Qi, you still dare to stop it? Don't get out of the way quickly, or the horse will step over you in a moment and turn your body into a pulp! ”

Sujia is not just intimidating. Blocking the carriages and horses of important officials of the imperial court on the street and plotting against the law is a serious crime, and it is indeed punishable to be executed on the spot.

The woman didn't show any timidity, but raised her voice even more: "Then let Lord Qi's horse step over the slave's body!" Let the slave go to the Yellow Springs Road first to open the way for the souls of the dead who are about to die today! ”

Su Yuqi actually guessed that this woman was here for today's events, but he didn't expect that he would be able to sacrifice so much for those humble warriors.

Actually, there is nothing unexpected. Since he dared to stop the king, he must have the heart to die.

"For those warriors? Born as a martial artist, in fact, there is no right to choose life and death. On the day I choose to be a martial artist, it is the time to hand over life and death to the master, even if I don't die at my hands today, I will die in the martial arts arena one day. ”

Su Yuqi spoke unhurriedly, and he was not angry, and he had a suffocating power. Such a Su Yuqi made the furious Su Jia immediately calm down and didn't dare to speak.

The woman was also suppressed by Su Yuqi's momentum, with tears in her eyes, but she still tried her best to hold on, biting her lip, almost biting her lip to blood, sorting out her thoughts for a moment, before she said: "It is their fate to die in the martial arts arena, but they don't deserve to die in a boring game!" ”

The momentum has dropped a lot.

Su Yuqi's tone was cold, and he said: "Martial arts is a game for rich people to play, how can it be boring or not boring if it is a game?" ”

"This ......" The woman was dumbfounded by Su Yuqi, her face turned crimson, and the tears in her eyes finally couldn't stop, and they fell down.

Su Yuqi waved her hand helplessly, "Well, my eyes are shallow, and I can't see a woman shed tears." You wiped away your tears, and told me who stopped me today, and maybe I could spare that man. ”

"Really?" The woman was immediately overjoyed and wiped a handful of tears.

"When have you ever heard that this king is not talking?"

The dish on the side couldn't help but look at Su Yuqi, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously appeared a little smile. When Su Yuqi said this, he had a handsome posture, maybe Su Yuqi himself didn't notice it.

Su Yuqi raised her eyebrows at Yu Ye and whispered: "Look, I guessed right, she is actually here for one person, not for everyone." ”

"So what? She's brave. He said warmly.

The woman lowered her head, didn't hear what the two said to each other, and said: "It's the slave's younger brother, he is only fifteen years old, because his family is poor and can't eat, so he volunteered to go to the Qi Wangfu to sign the deed of sale for the slave." He is still young, begging the prince of Qi to let him go, if the prince of Qi insists on his death, let the slave die for him. ”

Su Yuqi said: "It sounds very touching. Are you really willing to die for him? ”

"Yes, slave willing."

"Okay, you start running to King Qi's Mansion now, if you can run to King Qi's Mansion before me, I will grant your request."

The woman slammed her head on the ground, "Prince Xie Qi is complete." "I didn't dare to delay for a moment, I got up and ran in the direction of King Qi's mansion. The speed of survival is comparable to a gust of wind.

Dish Ye glanced at Su Yuqi helplessly: "What are you teasing her for?" She looked at it and was pitiful. ”

"Do you pity her? Then you can come down and run with her. Su Yuqi patted the horse and walked.

"What kind of sour tone are you?"

Cai Ye smiled and looked at the figure in the distance, recalled Fang Cai's words, and asked Su Jia, who was about to urge the horse: "Do you think that you Wang Fang just spoke strangely and sourly?" ”

Su Jia glanced at him and urged the horse to chase after him.

"Nope." Voices drifted in from afar.

Cai Ye originally wanted to slow down, but found that it didn't work at all, and Su Yuqi didn't seem to have any intention of slowing down to give the girl a chance, so he couldn't help but wonder what Su Yuqi thought.

A few miles away, in an instant. But a mile away from King Qi's mansion, the road was surrounded by crowds.

Most of these people came to see the excitement.

But Su Yuqi didn't say what time he would come in advance, and when he saw so many people waiting here, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

The front could not be ridden through, so Su Yuqi had to turn over and dismount. As soon as he got off the horse, he felt a gust of wind passing by, and when he looked, it turned out that the girl had run by.

Su Yuqi couldn't help but laugh.

Su Jia and Dish Ye arrived one after another. Su Jia shouted at the top of his voice: "Lord Qi is here, get out of the way!" ”

The crowd was frightened and panicked, but in the panic, a path wide of people was also squeezed out.

Yu Ye said: "Something must have happened in front, otherwise there would not have been so many people gathered." ”

"Not necessarily, maybe it was someone that Yun Xiang deliberately found in order to save him, those martial fighters."

"If you want to kill someone, even if the whole city comes, will they be able to stop you? It's not that the prince of Yunxiang doesn't know your temper. ”

"Yes. So what can happen? Su Yuqi frowned and glanced back at Yu Ye.

Cai Ye suddenly smiled: "That girl ran in front of you." Maybe the girl came up with it. She's a smart girl. ”

Su Yuqi suddenly darkened: "You admire that girl very much?" ”

"Well, not really." Looking at Su Yuqi's black face, he suddenly had an ominous premonition, and immediately spoke cautiously.

Su Yuqi snorted coldly and quickened his pace.

Walking through the small sandwich road separated by the crowd, to the front of King Qi's mansion, the onlookers flashed out a large open space in unison.

Above the clearing, a huge dry firewood pile was piled up, and on top of the firewood, a thick trunk was erected, and on the trunk, a lean old man was tied to the five flowers.

The old man's hair was white, his complexion was unhealthy, his lips were chapped, and there were several bloody wounds, as if he had not drunk water for a long time. Under the dry pyre, there was a column of people kneeling. The middle one is Qi Yunxiang.

Around the pyre, there were thousands of warriors standing in the black press, and the warriors' feet were shackled.

"Rebel, you go and find Su Yuqi for me! Aren't you going to kill all the martial artists of my Qi family? Let Su Yuqi burn the old man here first! ”

The old man on the trunk shouted hoarsely, almost bursting his throat.

Beneath the pyre, there was also a warrior in armor with a blazing torch in his hand, and if the torch was crooked, it would touch the dry wood, and a fire was inevitable.

The person tied to the trunk of the tree is the old prince of Qi Wangfu, Qi Lianting, who has already been called the old man in the world.

When Su Yuqi saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help frowning, took two steps, stood in front of the pyre, and asked Qi Yunxiang: "Uncle Qi, what is this?" ”

"Aki, when did I not do what I promised you? Why do you have to come at this time? Qi Yunxiang stood up, anxious and annoyed.

"I ...... How could I have expected Uncle Qi to mess around like this? ”

"He's already gone mad and confused...... Me, what do you want me to say? ”

"You're just looking at him like that? It's serious to get him down quickly. ”

"He won't let him, saying that whoever moves him will bite his tongue and kill himself."

"He's going to die, do you have to listen to him?"

Qi Lianting on the trunk also found Su Yuqi and sneered, "Su Yuqi, you came just in time, so you don't have to let the old man go to you!" Didn't you want the lives of all the warriors in the old man's mansion? The old man fulfills you. Ahei, ignition! ”

Qi Lianting immediately gave the order to light the fire. The warrior called Ahei, like a marionette, stretched out the torch in his hand towards the pyre.

Everyone didn't expect that the fire was stained with dry firewood, and it immediately became a momentum, and it burned fiercely, seeing that the tongue of fire was about to lick Qi Lianting's body. Su Yuqi was in a hurry, and flew to the fire.
