Chapter 5: Qibei Resurrected from the Dead (5)
Childe Yang.
Looking at the eldest prince of the Taishi clan who was still kneeling down to appease the stone statue of the deceased king, Qi Bei swallowed his throat, remembering that the eldest son of the old man Taishi had died at sea, and the body had not been found so far. But if he is still alive, he will inherit the position of the lord of Fenglin City in the future, and coming here after his death just confirms Xiao Tong's statement of "the dead king".
In this way, Gongzi Yang is really a dead man.
"Only God and man are dead. He repeated.
"Yes," the boy nodded, "this is the abode of the gods, who else can come?"
"So, what are you?" Qi Bei pointed at the child tremblingly.
Xiao Tong waved his pen and hid the nine games of chess except for the Fenglin chess game, and laughed twice: "I? Of course I'm a dead man." β
Qi Bei's palms were sweaty, and his throat was dry.
Dead people? Dead people can talk, can they move, and do kung fu to review and write?
So where is this little doll the deceased king of the Nine Kingdoms? How did he die at such a young age?
Many question marks popped up in Qi Bei's mind.
The dexterous boy saw what Qi Bei was thinking, and laughed, but felt that it was a waste of time to talk to an outsider, so he continued to bury his head in the case.
"Gongziyang?" Qi Bei bowed to him awkwardly.
Gongziyang closed the eyes of his grandfather's stone statue and said in a low voice, "No need. I'm dead. Here, I have a new identity, a spectator of the game in the city. When the next Fenglin chess watcher arrives, I will turn into a stone statue of the deceased king and join the tablets of countless ancestors in the wind for thousands of years. β
"The next spectator in Wind City?"
"Yes. Maybe it's the second brother who went to sea and disappeared without a trace, maybe it's the elderly father who has made too many enemies, maybe it's the younger brother who has never met and is now seriously ill, or anyone in the clan. When the wind was in distress, Tianxuan Pavilion changed, and Baiyu entered the city, but he was afraid of the whole familyβalas!"
Qi Bei's mood sank.
Tianxuan Pavilion changed, Baiyu entered the city, and before sunset, three people died.
Even Gongzi Yang mentioned the sixteen-character prophecy. He is above the nine heavens, and he can see the chessboard of the wind coming to the overall situation, is this equivalent to confirming the statement of destroying the city?
Gongzi Yang was still talking, and his tone softened a lot: "Fang Caiyang is rude, I'm very sorry." When you suddenly appeared, I thought you were from the Taishi clan, a new chess viewer. But I haven't seen you in my family. β
Qi Bei shook his head like a rattle and denied that he was not from the Taishi clan, besides, joining the ranks of the undead and becoming a dead man? I am Qibei, and my family is very ordinary. Well, in fact, my parents died when I was a child, and I haven't seen them. It was the master of the Hundred Opera Troupe who adopted me to grow up. So I'm definitely not from the Taishi clan. Besides, chess watchers have to die to be a chess watcher, and I don't want to be a chess watcher. β
Gongziyang laughed miserably: "It's not my wish to become a chess viewer." Who can dominate the matter of life and death?"
Talking about life and death, Qi Bei hurriedly asked, "Then why did I come here?"
"yes, strange, why are you here? Are you- no, you can't be a god. β
The little boy who criticized the fold laughed and said a cool word: "Look at his face and birthmark, of course he is not." β
"Is my face and birthmark so embarrassing?" Qi Bei was a little angry, why is it that not only in the world, but even in heaven and hell, there are always people chasing after his appearance? But in the next second, he suddenly realized that since the cheap and cruel wolf stabbed his right eye, half of his face was bloody, and the knife was still wide open, and the birthmark on his eyelid must not be visible, how did the little boy know the birthmark?
"Did you think of something?" the boy squinted and smiled, "I don't mean to despise it." β
"Are the birthmarks still visible?"
Gongziyang said strangely, "What are you talking about?"
Qi Bei hurriedly said to Xiao Tong: "Look, Gongziyang can't see it. How do you know?"
Xiao Tong turned the red pen and muttered a low voice repeating Qi Bei's words: "How do I know." Because it's so obvious. Haha, no wonder you're here. β
Sentence by sentence is like guessing a riddle, Qi Bei is dizzy: "Why am I here? Could it be that I was really killed by that bastard of Wolf Shao?"
The boy jokingly scared him: "What do you say?"
"Ahh You let me go back, please, hurry up. I want to see her, I want to talk to her, I haven't said goodbye to her yet, the believers of the Golden Crow God want to kill her, she is in a very dangerous situation, I want to tell her!" Qi Bei burst into tears when he heard this.
Gongziyang interjected and asked, "She, who do you want to see?"
Qi Bei shouted out the name: "Lady Bailing!"
"Which Lady Bailing?" the boy asked, curiously.
"Lady Bailing in Jun'an City, she is very beautiful, has a very good heart, and can sing. Qi Bei squatted down, hugged his head and cried, "I want to tell her that the wind is in danger and someone wants to kill her." Gongziyang, that's the sixteen-character prophecy you said. Am I really dead? No, I wasn't prepared at all, I didn't even leave a last word. I knew that sneaking into the small temple would kill me, I didn't care about anything for a long time, the first thing I did was to confess to her and let her know my mind, but now it's okay, I didn't say it until I died, woo. β
Xiao Tong bit the end of the Zhu pen, thoughtful: "What you are talking about, the wife that Ye Shiyu just married the year before last in Jun'an City?"
"Yes, you know her?" Qi Bei snorted and cried.
"Can you know?" Xiao Tong sneered coldly, "When did Ye Shiyu divorce his wife?
"Well, the Imperial Lord, he didn't divorce his wife. Under the close care and listening eyes of Xiaotong and Gongziyang, Qi Bei shrunk his neck and admitted in embarrassment, "It's me, I'm unrequited." β
Gongziyang looked at the grumpy boy with a somewhat complicated expression, while the latter stared at Qi Bei silently, waiting for him to confess.
"No, no, no, I'm not ruining their relationship as husband and wife, alas, if Lady Bailing really wants to choose him, then I, I...... Don't look at me like that, I hid it in my heart and didn't tell them. I listened to the words of the second lady of Huo Liguo, and she said that as long as I don't say it, I can think about it in my heart and love her in my heart. It's time to quit, I'll quit. I finally made up my mind to protect her silently. Then I found out that the Xuantong monk partnered with the desert wolf to attack the old mansion, saying that she brought in the Baiyu siege city, she was obviously wronged, I gave her a head, but I couldn't beat the desert wolf killer, and hacked him to death. β
Qi Bei let go of the hand covering his right eye, it was bloody, his whole eye was already sparse, Gongzi Yang couldn't bear to look at it directly, and Xiao Tong was silent.
