Chapter 72: Favor
"Your Excellency, you are here. The two men in brocade clothes, who had been full of disdain before, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed respectfully when they saw the man coming out of the crowd.
The man was also dressed in a brocade robe, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and his straight face exuded a chilling killing intent. With a long bundle of dark hair pinned to his head, his body exuded a chill that penetrated into his bones all the time.
But unlike other men in brocade, his eyes were actually two-color pupils of one gold and one blue, which were extremely conspicuous in the dark.
"Has the remnants of the Xie clan been dealt with?" Turning his head slightly, the governor asked the brocade-clothed man on the side expressionlessly, with a chilling coldness in his tone, without a trace of emotion.
"Back to the Governor, the remnants of the Xie clan that we chased here have been eradicated, and your Excellency can rest assured. The brocade-clad man from before stepped forward and replied.
Glancing around at the surrounding scene, his sharp gaze still saw the clue, and asked, "Where is the other child?"
"Kid ......"
"Back to the Governor," said another man in brocade, bending down slightly, "that child has been thrown off the cliff by this woman, and the chances of survival are less than one in 100, you see......"
When the governor heard this, he nodded slightly, and walked to the edge of the cliff with an expressionless face, looking at the endless abyss under his feet, which also made him shudder. turned around and said to the men in brocade: "This cliff of Dragon Slaying Mountain is at least five hundred zhang, and this child is surrounded by steel and iron bones when he falls, I'm afraid he will have to fall into a discus, so there is no need to look for it." β
"Yes!"
"Lord Governor," at this time, a slightly chubby man in brocade on the side stepped forward and bent over, "Wouldn't it be too cruel for us to slaughter the Xie clan like this, after all, ......?"
Burst!
Before he could speak, under the shocked gaze of everyone, a sharp blade with cold light pierced his body, and the owner of this cold light was the governor in front of him.
Blood dripped down the blade of the sword, and a wisp of blood gradually flowed from the corner of the brocade-clothed man's mouth, and his fat body trembled uncontrollably, "Lord Governor...... Why ......"
The sword slashed through his piercing body, and the sword in the governor's hand slashed through the throat of the brocade-clothed man, blood splattered, and the fat body had fallen in a pool of blood.
The cold light of blood flashed from the faces of everyone present, and the governor shook the blade in his hand, and the blood on the blade sprinkled on the faces of several brocade-clothed men in front, which couldn't help but surprise everyone.
"Whoever dares to say such things again in the future will end up like him!" Drawing the sword back into its sheath, the cold eyes and cold voice made everyone shiver for it, and the governor's fierce and cold gaze looked around everyone's eyes, and the death-like gaze seemed to tell them that the ancestral order could not be violated, and those who violated it would die.
"Wang clansmen, don't dare to disobey!" A shock shouted, and all the men in brocade knelt on one knee at the same time, facing the ground, and placed their right hand on their left chest and swore an oath.
Looking at the hundreds of people bowing down in front of him, a trace of satisfaction flashed in the governor's cold eyes, and he stood with his hands in his hands, nodded to everyone, and said: "Very good, everyone can have such an awareness, it is really worthy of the hope for the future of our Wang clan, get up! Everyone has worked hard today, go home early and rest!"
Everyone looked at each other, although they had seen a lot of such scenes, but this time, the feeling was completely different.
However, no one knew that a light blue ball of light gradually appeared at the bottom of the cliff, and from the light cluster, suddenly a baby's cry was heard.
The Wang clan, the capital of the imperial palace.
"See the Governor!"
Outside the house, several gatekeepers respectfully saluted a man who entered the door, and the man walked straight towards the house as if no one else had been around.
"Lord Doge, the elders are in retreat and no one is allowed to see them. One of the housekeepers at the door stretched out his hand to stop the governor who was about to push the door in.
With a turn of his body, he turned his fist into a palm, grabbed Jia Ding's outstretched hand, his eyes flashed with gold and silver, and the true qi in his palm floated out, Jia Ding instantly felt a sharp pain in his hand bones, and hurriedly struggled: "Lord Governor, spare your life!"
"Who is so noisy outside?" Inside the room, an old voice came, the corners of the governor's mouth hooked slightly, put aside the family on the side, pushed the door straight in, and saluted to a figure in the room with his back to the door:
"Father-in-law, Zhi'er has come to say goodbye to her father-in-law. β
"Oh, Zhi'er, how is the remnants of the Xie clan cleared?" the elder still turned his back to him, and the old man's voice could hear his perception of the vicissitudes of life.
Wang Zhi bowed down and said, "Back to my father-in-law, the remnants of the Xie clan have been cleared, and there is no one left. β
"Very good, Zhi'er, you really didn't disappoint me. The old man's words were not happy or angry, but more desolate.
"Father-in-law, if there is nothing to do, the child will retire first. With that, Wang Zhi turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait," the elder stopped him, "Are you sure that everyone in the Xie clan has been rectified?"
"Back to the father-in-law, there was no one left, all of them died by the sword of the child and his brother. β
However, instead of gladly approving as he expected, the elder replied with a sigh, "Because Father knows, you are tired, go down." β
Wang Zhi hesitated for a moment, then turned around and left silently.
The moment the door was closed, a tear slowly flowed from the elder's wrinkled cheeks.
The dragon soul clan headed by the elders of the Wang family, the rules of thousands of years, "The Legend of the Yuan Dragon" have never been changed, and those who violate it are only dead.
The night passed without incident, and the palace had a rare quiet morning.
The woman in the wilderness of the corpses last night, and the man in brocade who had been killed by the governor, their bodies had been torn apart by the wolves, and they didn't even know where their heads had gone. The blood solidified on the rock, but it was vivid to see as if three big characters had been written.
Dragon Slaying Mountain.
On the opposite side of the cliff, there is the Xie village that has been burning all night, which has turned into a piece of fly ash at this moment, and the breeze blows, and the ashes of the houses that have been burned to ashes are flying all over the sky, and below the black ash, there are layers of white forest wreckage.
The empty eyes seemed to be full of fear and unwillingness, and the white bones, ashes, and flying ashes in the sky all reminded people of the tragic scene last night.
However, who would have thought that the phrase that the spring breeze blows and gives birth again is coming to this extinct tribe.
Longmai River, it can be said that the four seasons are like spring, at the bottom of the cliff of Tulong Mountain, there is a clear river, the banks of the river grow green flowers and trees, tens of thousands of creatures live here endlessly. It's like a paradise jungle, and it's also home to an angelic tribe.
Although the vines are all over the trees, it does not affect the view of the vision, and in the green trees, you can faintly see a few happy and happy figures fluttering in them, and from time to time there are laughter.
The clear dragon vein river is the only source of water for the creatures here, and they will not allow anyone to defile this sacred river, so there is not a trace of impurities on the surface of the river, not even a single leaf can be found. However, on such a clear river, there was a fishy futon floating, and there seemed to be something else in the bedding.
"Wow~Wow~Wow~Wow......"
In the pure forest, there was a sudden sound of a baby crying, which couldn't help but make all the creatures in the forest vigilant.
And this cry came from the futon floating on the surface of the river.
In the jungle, a pair of thin, colorful wings stretched out, and in the sunlight, the multicolored pollen on the wing surface shone brightly, as if it were a multicolored jewel.
A figure soared up under the fanning of the colorful wings, gently caressing the river, and the figure flashed, but the crying futon on the river was gone.
The pair of colorful wings fluttered gently, holding the futon figure slowly floated down, the elegant posture can't help but make people think, whether it is landing or holding the futon posture is so elegant and generous, as if it is a natural beauty.
It was a woman, but the pair of colorful wings behind her made her identity self-evident, she was a butterfly demon, a colorful butterfly demon.
"Mother, what is it?" At this time, a milky cry came from behind her, and her beautiful figure turned gracefully, facing the girl in front of her and smiled slightly:
"Fluttershy, it's a kid. β
The little girl blinked her big round eyes and stared at the woman blinking, and she also had a pair of thin wings on her back, but they were pure gold, and they were not as colorful as the colorful wings on the woman's back.
"Kid, can you eat it?" asked the little girl innocently, her big blinking eyes full of curiosity.
The woman smiled slightly, shook her head, and said, "Fluttershy, children can't eat it, but you can raise it, Fluttershy, you are the child of your father and mother." β
Fluttershy still blinks and nods her head in understanding.
The woman looked at the child in the futon in her arms, and for some reason, she had been crying so hard before, but now she fell asleep quietly as soon as she picked it up. Gently peeling off a small layer of bedding, the woman involuntarily exclaimed, "Boy." β
"Mother, why is he in the sacred river?" Fluttershy asks again, thinking about her again.
Thinking slightly, the woman squatted down, stroked Fluttershy's little head, and said, "All of this is because the parents of the human race are so irresponsible, they throw their children in the river when they don't want to, and in the past, there were often children thrown away by father and daughter in the holy river." β
Fluttershy doesn't know what it means, but her round eyes show a little fear, "Mother, why did they throw away their children?
"Silly child, how could my mother be willing to throw you away?" the woman smiled as she looked at the sleeping child in her arms, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes, "Fluttershy, do you want a brother?"
When the girl heard this, the fear in her eyes vanished, and she laughed and clapped her hands, "Okay, okay, Fluttershy has a brother!"
Looking at her laughing daughter, the woman didn't know whether she was happy or worried.
At this time, a cyan jade pendant fell from the child's futon, and the woman bent down to pick it up, only to see two words engraved on the jade pendant, "Xie Qiao." β
The woman smiled slightly, glanced at the child in the futon again, and said with a smile: "It turns out that your name is Xie Qiao, so I will call you Qiao'er in the future." β
"Mother, let's go back and tell Daddy!" Fluttershy said happily, pulling the corner of the woman's clothes, "Daddy will be happy." β
"Hmm. β
The mother and daughter held hands and walked home in the morning light with laughter and laughter.
However, things have only just begun.
