The snow region is located in the extreme north of the Central Plains, across the river from the Western Regions, this river is called Juyuan River, it is said to flow down from the Baguio Pond of the Tianshan Mountains, the water quality is sweet, and drinking it often can prolong life.

In order to monopolize the large grasslands in the extreme upper reaches of the Juyuan River, the nobles of the Western Regions launched wars year after year, but the snowy border city was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the border city was guarded by the general Kebal, who was known as the undefeated god of war, and in the past thirteen years, not only did not take a city in the snowy region, but let himself lose his troops and lose his generals, the coalition forces of the Western Regions saw that this would only make them consume more troops and weaken their own forces, so they withdrew their troops in the last two years of the war, and finally, Kebal led the army across the Juyuan River and killed seventeen coalition generals, Captured the two important border towns of Weishuicheng and Aolaishuicheng.

Just when Kebalban returned to the court, bad news came from Hanjiang City, Yi Hao, the monarch of Yicheng, died violently and died in Lingque Palace.

The news spread quickly, Kebal immediately realized the seriousness of the matter, he left the army and only led eighteen Praetorian Guards to rush back to the capital Hanjiang City overnight, but it was still a step too late, the palace was on fire, everything had been burned, and at this time, the direction of Yicheng was also in flames, Kebal couldn't care about it, and when he arrived at the Yicheng Palace, he found that there was also a mess.

"Someone."

"General."

The guard dropped the bucket and immediately stood and looked at him.

Kebal held back the anger in his heart, "Have you seen the eldest prince, the third prince, and the seventh prince?" ”

The guards looked at each other, lowered their voices, and carried infinite grief, "King Zhou rebelled, and the three princes are probably more than lucky. ”

The head of one of the guards rolled at Kbal's feet, "Spy." ”

Seeing this, one of the lieutenants next to him immediately kicked the head away. "General, what now?"

Kebal squinted at the raging fire. "The emperor went out hunting, how could he die violently in Lingque Palace. This is clearly the suspicious array of King Zhou, blocking the mouth of the world, and the eldest prince accompanied him, at this moment, I am afraid that it has fallen into their hands. ”

The adjutant general's face was unusually ugly, Kebal looked back at him, took out his talisman and handed it to him, "I know you are someone from the side of the eldest prince, go ahead." The 30,000 elite soldiers stationed outside the city are my henchmen, and they only recognize tokens and not people, so you take them with you and go. ”

He spoke in a very light tone, but it was also very heavy, and his fate had already been doomed between light and heavy.

Kebal fought against the remnants of the king of Zhou, and when he was besieged in the Yehan Palace, his subordinates fell in front of him one by one, and finally. He was forced to go up to the Peacock Tower, and it was there that he saw something that rekindled his hope for life.

This thing is a drop of water.

This information kept coming to my head. I read this message out to myself, and the three people on the other side listened quietly. Very quiet.

The hour of "bang" has arrived.

I stood up and looked at the stone ball that was glowing golden. This time, I'm going to take a closer look.

The stone ball spins very slowly. But with each turn, a layer of grayish-white powder would fall off the rock wall, and I could feel the wall spinning as I stood in front of the wall with my hand lightly resting on it.

As the palace rotated, everything seemed to return to that moment

Kebal put the falling water bead on his body, clenched the sword in his hand, he wanted to live, rush out of here alive, and then go to find that person, only by finding him, can he find the treasures that the Yi royal family has guarded for generations, with these, he can go away to the Central Plains and start again.

In the middle of his thoughts, the peacock downstairs is already in flames, the king of Zhou has come to the front of the battle, Kebal has a million elite soldiers in his hands, if he wants to sit firmly in the world, the first thing is to settle this person, so, the king of Zhou came here in person, his wishful thinking is that if he can't be convinced, then he can only kill.

Kebal was sixteen years old and became a general, and he is well versed in the way of officialdom as an official, and the so-called Yi Chao is a courtier, even if he descends, he may not necessarily have a good life, and may even bring greater disasters to himself.

The army of King Zhou downstairs did not move, and King Zhou even let his adopted son Qin Jun come up as a lobbyist, Qin Jun didn't like to dance with knives and guns, but he liked to read, and his quick thinking and eloquence were even better, but he was timid and cowardly, although he did not agree with King Zhou's rebellion, but he was powerless to stop it, and this time he came to be a lobbyist, also because he wanted to save Kebal's life, because if Kebal did not surrender, then he would become the target of public criticism in an instant.

No one knew how the negotiations went, because Kebal only allowed Qin Jun to be present, and the others were far away and didn't know at all.

Kebal finally chose to surrender, and that night, he was hospifully entertained by the king of Zhou, and even gave him two concubines that night, of course, these two were carefully placed by the king of Zhou's side.

Three days later, the eldest prince Yi Hui was arrested, and when Kebal saw Yi Hui, his eyes were full of despair, and the falling water beads in his arms seemed to sense something, and they kept emitting a faint green light

The rotation of the palace stopped, and the stone ball shone with golden light, and the inside of the hall was unobstructed.

The golden wall is covered with runes, and most of these words are another kind of encrypted Huangquan ciphertext, I can't read it, to be exact, I am confused, and I don't have time to understand it.

On the other side of the stone wall, the grasshopper saw everything in front of him and patted the stone wall and shouted, "Boss, boss, I'll take you here with a climbing rope." ”

I looked at everything in front of me and was silent, but the gnats continued to beat the wall, at this moment, he was a bit of the essence of a grasshopper, not Qianjue.

Zhang Yang stopped him, "Don't shout, it's useless." ”

The gnats were puzzled, "I know him, even if he really remembers something, he won't blame us, that person said that he is a person who has no hatred in his heart." ”

"You still don't get it? That man used us to bring him into this plan step by step, and I always thought that he was a person who joined the operation by accident, but in fact, we have been here to assist him from the beginning, and now, don't you see? Whether it's Zhang Mosheng, Jiang Baichuan, or even that thousand tigers, they're all that person's pawns."

"But, I still don't understand, what are they looking for?"

"I don't know, I always thought my information was the most accurate, but now it seems like it's just a game

"That"

During the conversation, I only felt that there was someone behind me, and the moment the person landed, the quarrel between the gnats and Zhang Yang also stopped.

I turned around and looked at him.

Jiang Yuan looked at the golden wall behind me, his black and blue eyeballs reflected the runes on the wall, those eyes were the most mysterious I had ever seen.

"The eldest prince Yi Hui sealed the falling water beads here, but he didn't expect the mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches behind, he walked with his front feet, and the back feet were broken and the falling water beads were taken out."

Jiang Yuan looked at the runes on the wall and said.

I also looked at the runes, and I knew that what he said was not what was written on the runes, but when I looked at his face, I knew that he must have understood.

"What the hell is a drop in the water?" I asked.

Jiang Yuan's eyes were full of gloomy emotions, he didn't show anything on his face, but his hands betrayed him, although his slender and white fingers were bloodstained, but lying on top of the gold was even more shocking, his fingers crossed a line of runes, and said lightly: "Lady Lingque was born in the royal family of the Wu clan, in the palace, everyone retreats when you see her, and some people say that she is of unknown origin, a demon girl, and she has evil charms." ”

I said: "The Wu people originated in southern Xinjiang, traveled to the Yellow River Valley, a war torn them apart, and did not tolerate the world, in order to survive, they took refuge in the deep mountains and caves, and over time, they were regarded by people as a people from the underground, coupled with their own unique way of life and sacrificial rituals, bloody and cruel all day long with poisonous snakes and insects, these are all evil spirits in the eyes of the world." ”

The faint smile on the corner of Jiang Yuan's mouth revealed endless bitterness, "Yes, because of this, Ling Que was not happy in the palace, even if he gave birth to the prince, he was still not accepted by others, just when the child was full moon, the Empress Dowager gave Ling Que death, the reason was to let her child survive, otherwise the mother and son would go to the Yellow Spring together." ”

I looked at Jiang Yuan, and I felt inexplicably flustered. (To be continued.) )
