Volume 1 Tribulation Chapter 36 The Mysterious Man

Chongwushan has not held prisoners in the prison for more than a year, and Xu Chen is locked in the prison, and a sense of loneliness arises spontaneously.

He was very conflicted, if he kept his mouth shut tomorrow, he would probably be sentenced to death, but if he told the truth, although Feng Qianhiro would give him justice, the task assigned by Garama would no longer be a secret.

Touching the jade pendant under his neck, Xu Chen remembered the instructions of Garamo before he died, and the master was also thinking about the task until he died, instead of telling him the name of the murderer, which showed how important and urgent it was to invite the Song seniors back to the sacred mountain.

Xu Chen didn't understand why Karama regarded this matter as the top secret of the Divine Mountain, and repeatedly told himself not to reveal any words. But Xu Chen knew that this must be the right decision made by Master after careful consideration, so he decided never to tell this secret to anyone, not even Master Nangong. Because this not only violates the oath, but may also put the Song seniors in danger.

Therefore, Xu Chen's final decision was that no matter what happened, he would keep this secret to the end, even if it cost him his life.

It wasn't because he wasn't afraid of death, but because he had a glimmer of hope in his heart, because he suddenly remembered a person, the mysterious man who had received a letter from Karama.

The person who can be called a friend of the God King must be a person who can be trusted, and since the God King has told him to come to Mount Kinabalu quickly to discuss important matters, this person must have been on his way to Mount Kinabalu.

Therefore, Xu Chen decided that no matter what kind of unfavorable circumstances arise during the trial tomorrow, he would try to delay as much time as possible, and wait until this mysterious person came to Chongwu Mountain to clear his grievances.

Otherwise, if he died, Song Wuji's seniors might never have a chance to come back.

In the blink of an eye, late at night, Xu Chen was sleeping in the corner, and a noise suddenly filled his ears and woke him up from his dream.

When he opened his eyes, Xu Chen was surprised to find that there was a heroic middle-aged man in the cell at some point, and he was tapping his fingers on the wall boredly at the moment.

"Who are you?" Xu Chen hurriedly got up and asked him, because he had never seen this person, and the clothes and clothes on this person also showed that he was not from the God Clan of Chongwu Mountain.

"It doesn't matter who I am, it's you who matters. It's just a faint smile, and the corners of the middle-aged man's mouth have a bit of cynicism.

"Me?" Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then asked in a low voice, "Did you also commit a crime and be imprisoned?"

"Do you look like me?" The middle-aged man pointed to Xu Chen's back and said, "I'm here to save you out." ”

Xu Chen looked back and found that the cell door was wide open, and the corridor was quiet, as if there were no living people in the entire prison except for the two of them.

"Where did the guards go, and how did you get in?" Xu Chen was shocked.

"I said I was here to save you, but as for the guards, they were naturally ...... by me," the middle-aged man laughed and made a killing gesture on his neck with his hand.

"Bastard, you dare to kill my fellow Protoss!" Xu Chen immediately became furious, and reached out to punch the stranger.

But his punch was in the air, as if it had hit the transparent air, and the middle-aged man disappeared strangely from in front of him, and Xu Chen didn't see him make any movement at all.

"Silly boy, I'm here. ”

Seeing Xu Chen looking for his whereabouts everywhere, the middle-aged man stood in the corner with his shoulders crossed and whispered to him.

"Are you a ghost?" Xu Chen was surprised, not knowing what this person was about.

"Do ghosts have shadows?" the middle-aged man pointed to the figure on the ground and looked at Xu Chen with a sneer.

"This ......" Xu Chen was perfunctory, and at the same time secretly condensed all his true qi into the palm of his hand.

How do you know that this little trick has already been seen through by middle-aged people, and he said with a little emotion: "Lao Tzu is a mold that has fallen for eight lifetimes, and he is kind enough to save people, but others don't appreciate it and don't say it, and they want to kill me secretly." ”

Xu Chen suddenly blushed, his palm couldn't help but put down, and he said curtly: "I don't know you, why do you want to save me?"

"Only I know that you are wronged, and no one else believes you, is that good enough?"

"Nonsense, my master Nangong Muyang will never doubt me. Speaking of this, Xu Chen became excited.

"He, forget it, I'll take back what I just said. The middle-aged man laughed again and said, "But he is now a mud bodhisattva crossing the river, and it is difficult to protect himself." ”

"What are you talking about, what's wrong with my master?" Xu Chen was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to ask.

"I heard that God King named Feng or something say that Nangong Muyang has covered his apprentice to disgrace the God Clan, and has been detained by the God King on the spot, and your poor master will never have a chance to see you again before you are executed. ”

"You are talking nonsense, this is impossible!" The middle-aged man's words were no less than a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and Xu Chen was stunned on the spot.

"So your first priority now is to save your life, and then find a chance to clear your name. Otherwise, as soon as three o'clock in the afternoon arrives tomorrow, you will have to go to Lord Yama to redress your grievances. ”

"Thank you for your advice!"

In a hurry, Xu Chen didn't have time to distinguish the authenticity, he knelt down and kowtowed to the middle-aged man three times before getting up and leaving, but as soon as his foot stepped on the brick outside the prison door, he turned back into the prison again.

"Hey, why are you back again?" the smile on the middle-aged man's face suddenly froze.

Xu Chen said sadly: "I can't go, otherwise people will think that I am absconding in fear of sin, and then I will have to implicate the master." His Highness Garama is dead, and I must not lose another Master. ”

"Oh, I can't see that you kid is quite kind, Brother Garama really didn't see the wrong person!" the middle-aged man applauded and laughed.

"Of course, my Xu Chen's life ......" Speaking of this, Xu Chen was stunned, and then said in a lost voice: "You just called my master a brother, so who are you?"

"Hehe, I know you don't trust me, but that's okay, who makes me like to be helpful. The middle-aged man smiled and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Xu Chen.

As soon as he saw the familiar handwriting and seals on the letterhead, Xu Chen suddenly understood that the person in front of him was the friend that Karama said, and he said with tears in his eyes: "Engong, you are finally here, and my grievances can finally be revealed." ”

"Well, what are you happy about? The middle-aged man pretended to be deflated and said, "The surnamed Feng didn't listen to my explanation at all, and he insisted that you were the murderer, so I could only come up with this strategy to save you out." ”

"But I'm leaving, what should Master Nangong do, what should you do?"

"Bastard, when did you still have the heart to think about this?" The middle-aged man's expression suddenly became grim, he restrained his playful expression, and said sharply to Xu Chen, "Have you forgotten the task that Brother Garamo gave you?"

"I ......"

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "I have recently received accurate information that the Demon Clan is about to launch a full-scale attack on my God Clan. ”

"Ahh

Chongwu Mountain is at the forefront of the territory of the gods, and has been known as the gateway to the god world since ancient times. If the demon clan wants to rekindle the flames of war, then the first place to attack is of course Chongwu Mountain, not to mention that the old thief of the Beacon City has long been eyeing the Divine Mountain, how could he miss this great opportunity!

Xu Chen knew that there would be a battle between gods and demons, but he didn't expect the war to come so suddenly!

"Chongwu Mountain doesn't even have a decent strong man now, once the demon clan comes to attack, I don't know how many warriors of the god clan will die in the hands of the demon clan, and then the god mountain will also fall. At this critical juncture, do you still care about your personal innocence and do not carry out your glorious mission?"

Xu Chen's face turned red when he said these righteous words, and he knelt down again and said: "What Engong taught me is that I am confused at the next moment, and I decided to immediately go down the mountain and ask Senior Song to come back and preside over the overall situation." ”

"Yes, this is the only way that you will live up to Brother Karama's last wishes. The middle-aged man was a little sad in his words, and he continued: "Since you understand the righteousness, why don't you leave?" After speaking, he withdrew the letter.

"Xu has resigned, and I hope to have the opportunity to repay my father in the future!"

This time, Xu Chen walked out without hesitation and didn't even look back.

"Hey, hey, hey!" After Xu Chen left, the middle-aged man suddenly laughed again, he patted his head with his hand and said, "What a stupid boy, he ran away without thinking about anything." But wouldn't it be fun to let him go like this? No, I've got to play some exciting tricks. ”

A golden light flashed, and the middle-aged man disappeared without a trace, leaving only the unconscious guards in the empty cell, as if nothing had happened.

Although there is not a single starlight in the sky, Xu Chen has lived in Chongwu Mountain for five years, and often goes into the mountain to collect medicine, so he is very familiar with all the paths of the sacred mountain, and now he deliberately picked a path that few people know, and ran straight down the mountain against the cold wind.

The warm lights emanating from the night-shrouded village below the mountain were getting closer and closer to him, and Xu Chen's heart was much more relaxed.

Just when he thought he could escape without knowing it, suddenly there was a commotion behind him, and from time to time there was a scream that broke through the air.

"The traitor Xu Chen ran away!"

"Catch him, reward him with ten spirit pills, and directly advance to the god general!"

"You have to see people in life, you have to see corpses in death, and you must not let him leave the sacred mountain!"

The sound of killing shook the sky, the sound of horses' hooves and the impact of weapons was everywhere, like rolling thunder behind Xu Chen, he broke out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly looked back, it seemed that all the light burning from the torches was swarming towards him.

"It's over, someone has found out!" Xu Chen's face turned pale, and the speed under his feet was faster, he didn't dare to hesitate a little, otherwise if he was caught back, there would be only one way to die!

With a "whoosh", a person flew out of the bushes on the side of the road, blocking Xu Chen's way.

Xu Chen was taken aback suddenly, but when he saw that the person who came was his junior brother Liu Dong, his mind had calmed down a lot.

Liu Dong is just a fifth-order divine warrior, and his strength is not as good as his own, and it is basically impossible for him to catch himself and ask for merit and reward.

But Xu Chen didn't want to tear his face, so he arched his hand and said: "Senior Brother Liu, I was wronged, please raise your noble hand......"

"Phew!" Liu Dong opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of phlegm at him, and said sharply: "You dog thief who deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors, don't talk to me here, if you know each other, you will automatically tie up and go back with me to see Uncle Kong." ”

After speaking, he pulled out a long sword from his back, the sword light flashed with a cold glow, and he pressed towards Xu Chen step by step.
