Chapter Eighty-Four: Fighting for Your Life
Compared with the long-famous Dayuan Mountain or Kunlun, Yaqi Mountain is not so majestic and precipitous.
Although the mountain is isolated and towering like a wolf's tooth, it is far from the point that no one dares to climb. With the prestige of the Taiyin Palace in the world, the outside of the Taiyin Palace should have already been filled with admirers and scholars. In fact, Mo said that it was the Taiyin Palace, and there were few people within a hundred miles of Yaqi Mountain.
This, of course, has its roots.
The group climbed towards the top of the mountain, and Su Mu'an naturally had a brief burst of joy after getting Yuan Guilong's consent. But then I realized that this was not for fun, let alone looking for relatives and friends, but a battle to the death. The young man's mind sank again.
It was early spring in January, and the grass grew on Yaqi Mountain. There are few people here, so the birds and beasts in the mountains and forests don't seem to have much awe of everyone, but from time to time there are some unknown birds and beasts, standing beside everyone and looking curiously.
This scene is also rare, but Su Mu'an didn't have the heart to watch it carefully, he lowered his head and followed everyone for a while, and then finally mustered up the courage, looked up at the three people in front of him and asked, "Do you have to go?"
The young man's voice was young and tender, but there was a deep confusion in the dark.
The three of them did not answer his question, but walked on, and it was clear that this was their answer.
"Why?"
The boy asked again, the confusion in his tone becoming more and more intense.
The three of them seemed to know that this was a dead end, and if they knew that it was death, why should they go? In the eyes of the young man, this was somewhat stupid.
Die.
For a teenager of his age, it was too heavy a word after all, and he didn't even fully understand what it meant to die.
His father died, at the hands of the Long Night Division, Zhu Xian. He was very sad and angry about it. Only then did he come to the foot of this Yaqi Mountain, find Yuan Guilong, and learn a knife technique.
The only thing he knew was that his father's death meant that he would never see the man again, that he would be drunk, and that he would boast to him aloud about how good and beautiful their ancestors were, that he would never feel the temperature of his palm again, that he would never touch the stubble on his chin again, and that he would never be able to say goodbye to him in person.
He felt that this was a very sad thing for him and for his father.
Therefore, when the young man asked this sentence, there was so much confusion and so much confusion in his heart.
Why do they have to do something that is destined to be sad?
As if hearing the cry in the young man's tone, Yuan Guilong stopped.
The riding boots trampled on the ground paved with dead branches and leaves in the mountain forest, making a rustling sound, soft and low, and then abruptly stopped.
Mo Chenzi and Ning Zhumang beside him also stopped at that time.
The young man was slightly stunned, he thought he was going to get the answer he wanted, but the next moment, only a few crisp sounds, the sword behind the three people was unsheathed, before the young man could figure out why, the ground began to shake violently, a huge python burst out from under the dead branches and leaves, he opened his bloody mouth, the fishy wind spewed out from its mouth, and then its huge body covered the warm spring light in the sky, roaring towards the people to kill.
......
"The Lord of the Mansion of Xu has conveyed the sincerity of the first seat of the wish, what decision the Lord of the Mansion of Xu has made, and I also ask the Lord of the Mansion to make it clear, and the small ones will go back to pay the errand. The black-clothed Confucian stood in the main hall of the Tiance Mansion with a smile and said with his hands.
There were not too many people in the palace gate, except for Xu Han, who was sitting on the first seat, only Ye Hongjian and Chu Qiuli remained, and of course, there were a few armorers brought by the Confucian students.
Xu Han squinted at the Confucian scholar and did not answer his question at the first time.
"You are the imperial envoy of the Green Fox Tribe, the famous Xuanluo?"
"It's down there. The Confucian replied with a humble attitude.
"I heard that Your Excellency is clever, and your bearing is really extraordinary at first sight today. Xu Han sighed.
The Confucian frowned when he heard this, and the attitude in his mouth was still respectful: "Thank you for the lord's praise, I also heard that His Royal Highness the lord of the mansion acted vigorously and resolutely, and I was yearning for it, but I was quite disappointed when I saw it today." ”
Xu Han raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh?
"What is the point of compliments on your and my position? I only asked the lord of the mansion for an answer, but the lord of the mansion talked about him left and right, isn't it too girly?" replied with a smile.
When these words came out, Ye Hongjian's eyebrows on the side suddenly surged, and she took a step at the moment, and was about to scold, but Xu Han stretched out his hand to stop her.
"Go back and tell Zhu Shouza, when I convict the villains of the Gu Zhao family, Zhu Gongzi will definitely be sent to the door of Zhu Mansion safe and sound. Xu Han replied in a deep voice.
"Lord of the Mansion, what kind of truth is this, then if you can't finish the trial of the people of the Gu Zhao Er family in one day, is it possible that my son-in-law will have to live in this Tiance Mansion all the time?"
"I wish the sincerity of the first seat to feel it, the Xuan Imperial Envoy only needs to bring the words back, if you really want to bargain, then I'm afraid you have to ask the first lord to come in person. Xu Han looked at the Confucian scholar and said with a smile.
The meaning of these words is naturally clear, Xu Han said that he wanted it, but Xuanluo's identity was obviously not enough.
The Confucian was speechless for a moment, and after he pondered for a while, he said again: "Then it's okay to see the son next and determine whether he is safe or not, right?"
"Ask the world of the intelligence network of Ran Qingyi, the imperial envoy of the White Phoenix Department under the command of the Changye Division, if you are really worried about the safety of Zhu Gongzi, you can just ask Lord Ran, why do you need to see it?" Xu Han stood up at that time and said lightly, and after saying this, he didn't give the other party any chance to speak, looked at Chu Qiuli on the side and said, "Brother Chu, send off." ”
Chu Qiuli on the side grinned when he heard this, walked up to the black-clothed Confucian student, stretched out his hand and said, "Please." ”
Although the Confucian student was unwilling, he could only stare at Xu Han fiercely and leave.
......
When Confucianism was taken away from the main hall by Chu Qiuli, only Xu Han and Ye Hongjian were left in the gate of Nuo Mansion.
"When will Mr. Lu and Commander Hou come back?" asked Xu Han after a short silence.
The red-clothed girl beside her glanced at Xu Han and responded: "Although Dahuangcheng is reluctant to be from Chang'an, it will take half a moon to come and go, besides..."
The girl who said this paused before she spoke, "Besides, even if they can rush back, do you think they will be the opponents of the Long Night Division?"
"Huh?" Xu Han heard the helplessness in the girl's tone, and he turned his head to look at the girl.
Ye Hongjian suddenly sighed, and his voice was deliberately lowered a little: "Zhu Longqi is actually dead, right?"
The surprise in Xu Han's eyes flashed, and he asked, "How do you know?"
Ye Hongjian glanced at him, and said quietly: "Meng Liang took Fang Ziyu on the road early this morning, he was in a hurry, how could he be fine, and besides, detaining Zhu Longqi and threatening Zhu Xian with such a trick... It's tantamount to drinking a donkey to quench your thirst, no matter how stupid you are, you won't think of such a method..."
"Even you can't hide it, I think that our Zhuda Shouza will come back soon. Xu Han sighed lightly, his eyes full of worry.
"You're too impulsive. Ye Hongjian said reproachfully.
"You should know very well that Fang Ziyu is the future queen of Chen Guo to the outside world, and Zhu Longqi is so bold that he doesn't dare to do anything with her..."
Ye Hongjian said softly, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xu Han.
"There are no absolutes in the world, and I dare not take risks. ”
"Xiao Han, Tiance Mansion is already in turmoil, and the matter of Liu Xiao's brothers and sisters before is just that, and the matter of Ziyu is fine, and so is you, Tiance Mansion can't withstand your tossing like this..."
"Is it okay? Do you know that if Meng Liang and I hadn't arrived in time, Ziyu would have almost been ruined by that bastard?" Xu Han also turned around and said, his voice unconsciously a little louder.
When these words came out, Ye Hongjian was stunned for a moment, and he didn't know how to respond to Xu Han's words for a while.
"If you're in this situation, don't you want me to save you?" Xu Han asked in a deep voice.
Ye Hongjian looked at the young man in front of him in a daze, was silent for a long time, and finally said: "If such a price is to put Tiance Mansion in danger, I..."
"I don't want to..."
Xu Han never thought that Ye Hongjian would give such an answer, he was stunned for a moment, and his face changed slightly and retreated to the wooden chair behind him.
Ye Hongjian also seemed to realize that her words were too decisive, she lowered her voice, and said: "Xiao Han, you are the master of Tiance Mansion, you hold the life and death of not you alone, you have to think clearly, you have to weigh the gains and losses..."
Xu Han, who had been a killer in Senluo Hall for several years, didn't understand this truth, but when he heard this, his face was still ugly.
"Many times, the life and death of an individual is not worth mentioning compared to the people of Li in the Great Zhou, you have to know how to give up, and you also know..."Ye Hongjian secretly thought that his persuasion had worked, so he continued.
"Red note...", but this time she was interrupted by Xu Han before she finished speaking.
"Huh?" Ye Hongjian was stunned for a moment and looked at the young man with a dark look on his face.
"What do you seem to have made a mistake?" the boy laughed suddenly.
"What?"
"I didn't take over Tiance Mansion for the righteousness of the common people, nor for the people, I just did it for myself. ”
"I want to live..."
"Then if you really cherish your life so much, you shouldn't be so reckless, do you think that you will still be able to get rid of Tiance Mansion today?" Ye Hongjian also felt angry in her heart, and she asked with a questioning taste.
The smile on the boy's face was even worse at that time.
His lips opened and he said again: "Xu naturally spares his life. ”
"But some people spare their lives just to spare their lives, and Xu someone spares his life..."
"But when I need to fight for my life, I have a life to fight..."
