The snow stopped, but the twilight brought even more cold to the earth, and there were no stars in the sky, let alone the moon.

An unprecedentedly large but short war has just ended. The quiet blood flowed silently in the darkness, and the 50,000 troops of the imperial court were vulnerable and had long since collapsed. And Taoyuan has already surrounded them.

Xie Hui was scarred and still guarded in front of the Queen Mother, and the ministers and officials on the stage used their bodies to protect Liu Yifu. They waited with frightened eyes for Qin Zhengfeng to give his final order.

Qin Zheng stepped lightly over the black blood of the stump and walked awe-inspiring to the front of the group of people, and swept around angrily. His dark green kaftan was still spotless.

"Where's my Yan'er?!" He asked suddenly.

None of the ministers on the stage dared to answer him. A person in the audience who looked like a general with a long sword suddenly replied lightly: "She has been taken away by Xiao Minglang, she should be fine." ”

Qin Zhengfeng slowly looked at him, and saw that he was different from that group of people, and his firm and clear eyes full of justice left a deep impression on Qin Zhengfeng. This person is none other than Nie Feng.

Nie Feng didn't see the truth, only in the crowd he suddenly saw Xiao Minglang and Huayan walking in the other direction, where did he know that it was Lin Yunrou who secretly held Huayan hostage, so he stopped chasing him.

Qin Zhengfeng didn't attack him, turned around and looked at the group of people on the stage steadily, as if thinking about what to do with them next.

Qin Zhengfeng has changed, which can be seen from his actions in commanding the operation this time. He is no longer the soft-hearted Xuanfeng Hall Master who allows others to oppress and take the initiative to forgive him.

Since becoming the master of Taoyuan Hall and being promoted by the rivers and lakes as the leader of the martial arts alliance, he has chosen to change his style of doing things. Decisive, iron-fisted is his attitude. A forgiveness will only make Taoyuan follow in the footsteps of Xuanfeng Hall, and he understands this.

Now that the enemy has bullied the inside of Taoyuan and openly poisoned the people of Taoyuan, his sworn brother, he must not forgive! Even if he risked the world's might, he couldn't let anyone hurt his family, brother.

abolished this emperor, just to help Liu Che'er to ascend the throne. That was his mind at the moment, but he was still hesitating.

The group on the other side had no power to fight back, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. And Lin Yunrou had just secretly taken the painting away and escaped this disaster.

The Queen Mother and Xie Hui probably never dreamed that the power of Taoyuan was so powerful, with more than 2,000 people fighting more than 50,000 people, and it was effortless. So much so that they did not send more soldiers. Outside the city, there were people in Taoyuan who cut them off, so that their reinforcements could not go out of the city to deliver the news.

Kong Yaowen hesitantly walked up to Qin Zhengfeng's side and said hesitantly, "Big brother...... At this point, I don't think there is a need for a bigger incident. Enough blood has been shed......"

Qin Zhengfeng didn't answer, and looked ahead indifferently.

The cold wind is shining, and people's hearts are terrified.

Lei Buming jumped out from the side and shouted, "Who said that's it?" Whoever kills the painter must pay for his life! He turned his head to Qin Zhengfeng and said, "Big brother, you rest first, let me go and finish off all these hypocritical and cunning guys!" ”

Qin Zhengfeng didn't stop it, and stood still in place.

In the stands, a person suddenly rushed out, neither humble nor arrogant, without fear, pointing at Lei Buming and saying: "Presumptuous! How dare a rough barbarian offend the Son of Heaven! He turned to Qin Zhengfeng and said righteously: "Qin Daxia has always held the way with justice, and the brothers of the rivers and lakes will obey you." But today, what kind of upright thing did Qin Daxia do? ! Even if the Son of Heaven is wrong, it is not up to you to judge! If you ignore the principles of heaven, you will fail! If you kill the Son of Heaven, you will sit on the throne yourself. If the name is not good, the words are not right, and the people of the world are not convinced! ”

The person who spoke was Xu Xianzhi. After all, he is a former general who has experienced war, even if he is over half a hundred years old and has a lot of hair, he can't erode his tempered brave will. He and Nie Feng were the only ones in the audience who were still calm.

'The name is not right, the word is not right. This sentence completely woke up Qin Zhengfeng and dispelled the obsession he had just had.

He is right, and if the name is not good, it is not right. Even if he finally supported Liu Che'er to take the position, he couldn't win the hearts of the world. Only when he dies in a cocoon and loses the hearts of the people in the world is Liu Che'er's chance. Now is not the time.

Thinking of this, he resolutely turned around and raised his hand to lead everyone out of the execution ground. Only one precept was left floating in the sky: "If you dare to offend my Taoyuan again, you will never be spared!" ”

On the line of life and death, Qin Zhengfeng withdrew his hand and let go of the incompetent emperor and queen mother. The group of spectators who had just died on the verge finally came to life. They didn't dare to stop them anymore and let Qin Zhengfeng and the others come and go. The remnants of the soldiers along the way consciously opened the way.

Qin Zhengfeng disbanded the other brothers, and together with Kong Yaowen and others, he first sent the corpses of Xia Shan and his wife back to the Forgotten Dust Building.

They blatantly remained in the capital, fearless of the threat of the imperial court.

Aunt Pan helped the injured shepherd to sit down, and let Xiao Haizi take a look at the injury for her.

After checking the pulse and making sure that there was no big problem, Xiao Haizi hurriedly took out the pill from his pocket and asked the shepherd to take it, "This pill is my daily practice, although the effect is not as good as my master's health pill, but it can also play some role, and you can recover some physical strength after eating it." ”

The shepherd lady glanced at Xiao Haizi gratefully, and took the pill herself.

Qin Zhengfeng walked to the window and looked at the snowy night, his eyes full of desolation.

Lei Buming just wanted to complain loudly, but when he saw the expression of his eldest brother, he cautiously shut up and silently walked to the side and squatted.

Kong Yaowen stood aside silently with his head down. Their eyes avoided the two coffins lying in the center of the hall.

"Yan'er doesn't know where she was taken? Why is there no news yet? Pangu suddenly asked worriedly.

"I've sent someone to look for it, and there should be news soon." Kong Yaowen replied in time.

There was silence again.

"May I ask where the big boss is here?" A scholar-like man dressed in a light-colored long cloth robe called out at the half-closed door of the Forgotten Dust Building.

Everyone in the room instantly raised their vigilance and gathered their eyes outside the door.

The shepherd girl cautiously walked to the door to take a look, and found that the person who came was Xing Antai, who had seen in the Forgotten Dust Building that day. She asked vigilantly, "What is the matter with your lordship?" ”

Xing Antai bowed respectfully and said gently: "The big boss doesn't have to worry about the arrival of Xiaosheng. Xiaosheng came just to pass on a message to the big boss. ”

The shepherd asked, "What kind of message?" ”

Xing Antai looked left and right, took a few steps forward and said: "Xiaosheng came here to inform the big boss, hurry up and go to the top of the Wolf's Tooth Mountain to see, the painting county lord was taken away by the concubine's men, with her current physical condition, I am afraid that there will be more than one luck." ”

"What?!" The shepherd couldn't help but exclaim.

The doors were opened in an instant, and everyone in the house walked out. Qin Zhengfeng looked at the thin scholar in front of him grimly and asked, "Where did the little brother get the news?" And why did you tell me? ”

Seeing such a strong lineup on the opposite side, Xing Antai had to be stunned for a while, he bowed respectfully again, and replied: "How dare Xiaosheng deceive all the heroes, isn't he here to die?" Xiao Sheng and Xiao Minglang met once, regarded him as a confidant and friend, although they had different positions, they didn't want to see him persecuted. Although he followed the lord of the painting, the concubine's subordinates were also extremely powerful, and the people in the rivers and lakes called 'Wuying'. This man wields a shadowless whip and can kill people in the intervals. ”

"It's shadowless again!" Limu on the side said angrily.

Lei Buming asked curiously, "Boy, have you seen him?" ”

Limu nodded and said: "Master, master, Limu has seen this Wuying in Peicheng, at that time, he obstructed Sister Yan in every way, and Sister Yan almost fell into his poisonous hands, this person is indeed very skilled." ”

Kong Yaowen agreed: "I also know a thing or two about this matter, but he and Yan Er have long been mortal enemies, and he will definitely not let it go easily this time!" He suddenly thought of something, and turned to Xing Antai and asked, "You just said that Yan'er's body is what's wrong?" ”

Xing Antai was surprised at first, and then hurriedly replied: "You still don't know? Princess...... Not only was his eyes gouged out...... Lian Wugong ...... also abolished ......"

"What?! Who the hell did it?! Qin Zhengfeng said angrily.

"In order to save the queen, the lord of the county was ambushed by the forbidden army and arrested and imprisoned. The Queen Mother and General Xie were afraid that the county lord had the emperor's gold medal in hand, and set a trap, painting the county lord to be neatly dressed on the surface, but in fact, at the mercy of others, he was already weak and could not speak, and his life was on the verge of death. Xing Antai finished this passage tremblingly.

"It's the Queen Mother again!" Qin Zhengfeng clenched his fists, and his angry eyes seemed to be about to erupt into flames.

Kong Yaowen stepped forward and questioned: "How do you know the news that even our Taoyuan can't detect?" ”

Xing Antai replied calmly: "Xing Antai, a junior student, has a small position in the palace, so he can find out a thing or two. ”

Mu Niang said anxiously: "This son does know Xiao Gongzi, they often come to my Forgotten Dust Building, so I know it." His words, I don't think there will be any falsehood. ”

Kong Yaowen turned to Qin Zhengfeng and said, "Big brother, I think we have to go to Langya Mountain as soon as possible, Yan'er can't have another accident!" ”

Kong Yaowen's words aroused Pangu's worries, she looked at the empty street in amazement, and muttered with tears in her eyes: "My Yan'er, I don't know where to suffer?" ......”

Lei Buming said anxiously: "Oops! What are you waiting for! Let's go?! Even if there are thousands of troops in ambush there, what are we afraid of them?! ”

"Go to Langya Mountain!" Qin Zhengfeng opened his mouth and said, and the person had already walked forward.

Lei Buming and the others immediately followed.

Xing Antai did not follow. For the sake of Xiao Minglang's face, he secretly came to inform the news, and if he was with them again, he was afraid that his identity would be exposed and his life would be in danger, but the news he said was indeed true.

Looking at a group of top masters in the rivers and lakes, risking their lives just to find a woman, his curiosity about painting Yan intensified.

The sun was setting and the wind was howling.

Xiao Minglang still knelt on the edge of the cliff and did not move. The setting sun shone on his face, the contours of his face handsome and prominent, but they looked like they were made of ice and snow on distant mountains.

After a long time, there was still no echo at the bottom of the cliff. Thinking about it, Yan'er has already suffered an accident. He thought bitterly. Everything in this world is meaningless to him, so it is better to go to another world with her immediately. He thought about it, and immediately took action.

He staggered to his feet, holding his sword and straightening his stiff legs.

Without hesitation, he closed his eyes, opened his hands, and took that step towards the edge of the cliff!

Suddenly, a fierce gust of wind swept towards him, bringing his body back to the ground.

Xiao Minglang suddenly took a look, but found that there were a group of different people around him. In the midst of the group, he recognized a familiar person, Limu.

Qin Zhengfeng helped Xiao Minglang up and asked urgently, "What about Yan'er?" ”

Xiao Minglang recognized him as Qin Zhengfeng, the master of Taoyuan Hall, from the trick he had just used.

Xiao Minglang stood stunned, his eyes still looking at the edge of the cliff.

The people looked for him, and found the veil that had fallen on the edge of the cliff, and understood everything.

Pangu rushed over, knelt on the edge of the cliff and shouted: "Give back my Yan'er!" God, you give me back my face! Aren't you making her suffer enough?! ”

Qin Zhengfeng held Pangu's shoulders in pain, in case she did anything stupid again.

The thunder was still whirring at the beginning, but it was unusually quiet at this time, he threw the broad axe to the ground, covered his face and cried silently.

Kong Yaowen grabbed the impulsive Limu and stood in the snow calmly.

The snowflakes fell quietly as if they understood people's hearts, one by one, and over time, the bright red blood on the ground was covered, and it was a white expanse of earth.
