Chapter 35: Single-mindedness (II)
Looking at An Youran's serious expression and unusually bright eyes, Su Chen smiled slightly, warm as jade, "I understand!" But...... Xiao An, I can't treat you as a brother! ”
Hearing Su Chen say this, An Youran was taken aback, and subconsciously blurted out: "Why!?" ”
"Since you want me to be honest, you shouldn't hide anything from me!" Su Chen raised his eyes and looked at each other, "I can't be the reason why you are a brother, don't you really know?" ”
An leisurely felt her heart tighten, her breathing couldn't help but become short, and she lowered her head and didn't dare to look at Su Chen's scorching gaze, "You know everything?" ”
"I know, and you tell me, the meaning is not the same!" Su Chen replied in a soft voice, "Xiao An, I want to hear you tell me in person!" ”
The dim light in the room reflected the blurred figures of the two people. After a while, An Youran raised his head suddenly, clenched his fists, and said with courage: "Yes, you can't be my brother!" Because I'm a woman! ”
"Now it's totally certain!" The corners of Su Chen's lips rose, and the pear vortex appeared. "You're so honest."
"Could it be ......" An leisurely suddenly woke up from his words, "You weren't sure at first!?" ”
Ignoring An Ran's chagrin, Su Chen reacted truthfully, "I just had some suspicions, but now I know." ”
The corners of An Youran's eyes twitched involuntarily. It turns out that where is that gentle and sincere Su Chen!? Still is...... This is the real Su Chen!?
"Are you yin against me!?" An Youran's teeth creaked with hatred, "When did you suspect that I wasn't a man?" ”
"This ......" Su Chen just wanted to answer when he fell into the water, but his mind changed and he changed his words: "Although you have a close relationship with me and Tang Ning, you never want to sleep with the two of me, and you don't want to bathe with everyone at the same time when you bathe, either you slip away for some reason or prefer to wait until everyone is washed......"
may be a thief, for Su Chen's explanation, An Youran did not have the slightest doubt at all. He waved his hand and said, "Okay, Su Chen, my secret has been said. Now it's your turn, are you not a Da Yu person, but a citizen of another country from Lingbei?! ”
"Not bad!" I originally thought that Su Chen might avoid this question, but I didn't expect him to admit it readily and said: "I am indeed not a great Yuren, I am a national of Lingbei!" ”
"Isn't Lingbei banning any of its nationals from leaving the country? Could it be that you crossed the border privately in order to kill Liu Kun?! An Youran jumped up in shock: "The prince once mentioned that Lingbei will regard all those who leave the country without permission as treason and want to destroy the nine clans!" Isn't that too much price for you? ”
"Some things have to be done, and some risks have to be taken!" Su Chen's expression was solemn, "And Liu Kun ...... Be sure to kill too! ”
"Are you crazy!?" An Youran was very angry at Su Chen's statement, "Just for this damn hatred, involve your family!" Take revenge at the risk of being slaughtered all over the house! Are you in the water in your brain or are you nervous abnormal! Big things are not as important as family! ”
Unexpectedly, Su Chen was even more excited than him, "I just risked this disapproval for the sake of the lives of the whole clan!" If at the beginning of next month, I can't bring Liu Kun's head or tiger talisman back to Lingbei, then my clan in Lingbei will never be reborn! Do you understand!? ”
"Tiger Talisman?" An Youran had never seen Su Chen, who had never seen such a look, and his face turned pale with fright, but he still forced himself to ask: "Isn't that the military talisman used by the emperor to dispatch troops?" Don't...... You want to attack Dayu? ”
"What I'm looking for is not Da Yu's Tiger Talisman, but my Lingbei's Tiger Talisman!" Su Chen interrupted An Youran's guess, "That tiger talisman was originally kept by my clan, but it was obtained by Liu Kun's skewed by despicable means!" ”
When An Youran heard that it was not bad for Da Yu, his mood calmed down a little, and his eyes rolled, "Do you just need to choose between Liu Kun's life and the tiger talisman to bring back to Lingbei?" If there is a way not to kill someone, why do you have to take his life!? ”
"I have an enmity with Liu Kun, and it is my dream to slash him! It can not only snow the shame of our generation, but also make the enemy's blood debt repaid, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone! Why should I settle for the next best!? Su Chen said stubbornly, "And the whereabouts of the tiger talisman have always been a mystery, and Uncle Yu has been looking for six years without finding any clues!" Compared with the Tiger Talisman that I don't know when it can be recovered, killing Liu Kun is still simpler! What's more, this is also related to the life and death of more than 180 people in my entire clan in Lingbei! ”
"That's what you didn't find! That doesn't mean I can't find it! An Youran felt as if she had seen the dawn of hope, "What if I find the Tiger Talisman?" Can you promise me to stop? ”
"Do you think you can do it?" Su Chen glanced at An Youran, "You don't even know what the tiger talisman is, how to find it?" ”
"How do you know if you haven't tried?" An leisurely asked relentlessly: "There is no absolute thing in the world!" All I ask is if I find the Tiger Talisman, are you willing to do it!? ”
I don't know if it's An Youran's insistence, or if he doesn't believe that he can find the whereabouts of the tiger talisman at all, and he doesn't want to entangle him anymore. Su Chen unexpectedly replied, "You can give it a try!" But I won't stop until you find it. After all, the stakes are very high, and it is impossible to pin the life and death of the whole clan on your ethereal thoughts! ”
"Okay, I agree!" An thought about it leisurely and did not refute it again, "But you must promise me to tell me before you start every time!" I'm not going to interfere with you, but at least...... So that I can protect the people around me. Please don't drag the people of the palace into the water again! ”
"I understand......," Su Chen replied after pondering, "I will give you an explanation for the last time they acted privately!" I will do what I promised you......"
As soon as he was halfway through his words, his face suddenly sank, and he made a silent gesture to An Youran, and before An Youran could understand, Su Chen opened his mouth and said, "Since you are here, come down!" It just so happens that I have something to ask you, too! ”
Only the slight sound of the wind blowing and falling leaves was heard, and a man in black had already floated behind Su Chen.
"Subordinates, see the young master!"
"Uncle Tong," Su Chen didn't reply, and asked directly, "Did you do that thing at the Jockey Club?" ”
"Yes!" The man in black, known as Uncle Servant, knelt down, "It was indeed done by his subordinates!" ”
"Why didn't you report it beforehand? Could it be ......" Su Chen turned around and said in a fierce voice: "You don't take me, the young master, in your eyes!" ”
"The subordinates don't dare!" Uncle Yan's voice trembled slightly, "It's just that when I heard the news of Biluo's death, I was filled with righteous indignation for a while, and I couldn't wait to immediately break the old thief's body into ten thousand pieces!" Impulsively, he took advantage of the chaos of horse racing to end up in that house! ”
"Bi Luo......" An looked at Su Chen leisurely, "Who is it?" ”
"It's the girl who danced on the night of the night banquet," Su Chen's eyebrows hid a faint sadness, "On the day you set off to participate in the horse race in Qiu Mu's forest farm, she was executed by Liu Kun's order." ”
An leisurely recalled the figure of the girl in green on the night of the night of the night banquet: graceful dancing, beautiful face, so young, so beautiful...... But in this most dazzling season of life, my soul was broken, and I couldn't help but feel sad.
"You and Biluo are like father and daughter, and you are eager to avenge her, although your feelings are pitiful, but your crime should be punished!" Su Chen looked like a superior person, and shouted sternly: "Do you know what kind of consequences such an unconsidered private matter will bring!?" ”
As he spoke, he smashed the mercury mirror that An leisurely handed over to him at Uncle Yan, "You almost exposed the identities of all of us!" What will be the result, do you need me to tell you!? ”
"Subordinate, you really deserve death!" Uncle Yu bowed down and admitted his mistake, and his hoarse voice seemed vigorous and deep, "But please let the old man kill Liu Kun and then apologize with death!" Otherwise, I won't be blind! ”
"Uncle?" Afraid that Uncle Yan's recklessness would implicate the innocent, An Youran suddenly interjected: "If you just want to kill Liu Kun, why do you continue to act after he gives away the horse?" Wouldn't that hurt someone by mistake? ”
"Accidental injury?" Uncle Yan snorted coldly, "You mean King Jin's son?" That's not a good thing either! It's a pity that he didn't die! If it weren't for him, Biluo wouldn't have been arrested! ”
"You ......" An leisurely pulled him from the ground in anger, "The master was just for self-defense!" It's you Biluo yourself who has to confront him! Don't turn black and white upside down and anger others! ”
Uncle Yan originally had a grudge against An Youran, and he was naturally angry when he scolded him in front of him. With his backhand, he stretched out his hand and grabbed An Youran's neck, and roared angrily: "Our business, it's not your turn to be the lackey of King Jin's Mansion to point fingers!" Speaking of which, you are the culprit responsible for the failed assassination! I'm going to kill you right now to comfort Biluo's spirit in the sky! ”
"Let it go!" Seeing this, Su Chen hurriedly spoke out to stop him, but Uncle Yan was already angry, not only did he not listen to it at all, but his hands were tightened, and his eyes were black......
"Stop!" In desperation, Su Chen stepped out to hold Uncle Yan's life and threatened: "Let him go!" ”
"Young Master ——!" Uncle Yan roared almost in despair like a wounded beast, "Why do you want to save this dog slave again and again! If it weren't for him, how would we be in this field! There are countless casualties, and there is a possibility that you will not be able to recover within the time limit! At that time, it will not only be a few dozen of us, but all of the people of the clan will die! ”
His hoarse shout did not change Su Chen's mind in the slightest. Su Chen's face was cold, and he said unmoved: "You let him go!" I'll take care of all the consequences! ”
"Alas! Seeing Su Chen's persistence, Uncle Yu let out a sad and indignant sigh! He let go of An Youran, and his body disappeared into the shadows of the swaying trees outside the window.
Su Chen did not stop Uncle Yan's departure, his expression was indifferent, and he leaned over to help An Youran, who was sitting on the ground, "Xiao An, are you hurt?" ”
The development of things had already exceeded An Youran's expectations, and he said uneasily in his heart: "Su Chen, I'm sorry! All I wanted was to stop the killing. But I never thought that it would cause you so much trouble. ”
"You're also well-intentioned, so there's no need to blame yourself!" Su Chen waved his hand and comforted Wen Yan: "Don't worry, I will handle Uncle Yan's affairs properly." He was also so sad that he would have acted so radically! ”
Looking at the familiar and unfamiliar Su Chen, An Youran had mixed feelings in her heart, "Is it worth it that you are at odds with your subordinates for me, an outsider?" ”
Su Chen gently touched An Youran's head, "Didn't you say that we are brothers?" And he also said that he would protect me! How could I abandon you? ”
"Su Chen," for Su Chen's trust, An Youran felt great responsibility and warmth, and he said firmly: "Don't worry, I will definitely find a way to find the Tiger Talisman!" I will also let you and Uncle Tong return to Lingbei safely without dishonoring our mission! ”
