Chapter 36 Frustration

Shang Gongzi turned his head and was amused, waved his hand, and looked up at the top of the mountain again. I have heard that Tu Mountain is difficult to climb, and it may not be useful to go up. Now he seems to feel it, but he has to come again for the sake of the Great Zhou Dynasty. His father, Emperor Jianlong, is 49 years old this year, but he is already vain, not to mention mountaineering, he can die all the way. As the crown prince, he had to carry the burden. There was once a master who said that going south can find a glimmer of life for the Great Zhou Dynasty, if the blood-devouring golden lotus can be extended for a hundred years, and if you have Tu Mountain, it will be a thousand years.

As the crown prince, Shang Gongzi did not dare to be careless, and everything was done according to ancient etiquette. If this mountaineering still has to be carried on the back, then what kind of face does he have to ask for a thousand years of national glory for the Great Zhou Dynasty.

What's more, Tu Mountain still has stairs to climb, and if it is a wild mountain without stairs, he has to climb it by himself.

Shang Gongzi cleaned up his clothes and continued to walk up, stopping to rest for a while when he was really tired. He Le also began to admire him, as an ordinary person, he has done well enough, and as the crown prince of the dynasty, he can be regarded as a model for the minister.

The road was intermittent, and after walking for another hour, I looked up at the stone steps with no end in sight. Shang Gongzi thought that he was pious enough and should be easy to reach the top of the mountain, but now he knows that he thinks it is simple.

"Childe, why don't I go up there and take a look, and you can rest for a while?" He Le also sensed that something was wrong, and he should have reached the top of the mountain a long time ago, and this mountain was not too high.

Shang Gongzi struggled, but still shook his head. Millennium, which was so easy to get, he decided to continue.

After another hour of walking, Shang Gongzi's face was already pale and panting like a cow. He really can't go anymore, he is about to see his ancestors and ancestors, and he hasn't seen the top of the mountain yet. Ignoring the etiquette, he turned around and sat on the stone steps, unconsciously tears raining down.

He Le never imagined that he would see such a side of Shang Gongzi, he had also shed tears, but many years ago, when he was still young. It was unlikely that he would shed tears now, because he knew that even if he was pitied, it would not be of much use. People always have to learn to be strong, otherwise they will be pitiful to anyone.

He is not very comforting person, so he can only accompany Shang Gongzi to stand in the mist.

After resting for half an hour, Shang Gongzi felt that he had recovered some strength, so he gritted his teeth and continued to go up. He Le looked at his thin body from behind, trembling forward on the stone steps, eager to help him. But he also knew that he couldn't mess around here, otherwise it would be bad to ruin Shang Gongzi's big business.

This time he walked up for less than half an hour, and just as Shang Gongzi was about to fall, the endless stone steps above began to appear abnormal. A very thin mist swept downward, at first very slowly, and only became extremely thick as it approached. He Le had a bad premonition, and when he wanted to help the businessman, he had already made a profit.

He Le was stunned for a few seconds, unsure if this was what Shang Gongzi wanted. He stood where he was and waited for a pillar of incense, but he was still not at ease, so he walked a few steps forward. At this time, the mutation quietly happened, and the thick fog slowly condensed into a human form, standing in front of him.

He Le stopped and looked at the person who had been condensed by the mist.

"Three thousand laws, ten thousand years of the sky. Little doll, are you lost?" the voice was extremely old and authoritative.

He Leqing knew who was using the fog to make a mystery, but he couldn't feel the slightest bit of Qi, and he didn't know what he did. Of course, he couldn't ignore the other party, so he replied cautiously: "I came to climb the mountain with my son-in-law." ”

"Oh, your son-in-law, do you want to climb the mountain?"

"No, I'm too young to climb the mountain. ”

"Hahahaha" The vigorous laughter came, shaking He Le's whole body with trembling.

"Well, come back when you're fit for climbing!"

As soon as the voice fell, He Le felt that his body was retreating, not going down, not falling down, but retreating. At first it was fast, then it slowed down, and by the time it stopped, he was standing at the bottom of the mountain.

In front of him, there was a frustrated Shang Gongzi, and the two looked at each other, knowing that their previous efforts were in vain.

"Let's go. "Shang Gongzi is also simply here, and he no longer insists on it.

He Le was still in shock, and he couldn't figure out how he got down at all. Seeing that Shang Gongzi was leaving, and was about to follow, he suddenly felt a huge danger. When they looked up, they saw a huge figure rushing towards them.

"Let's go!" He Le picked up the merchant and retreated to the periphery with him. The huge figure was extremely fast, and it came down from the mountain with the force of wind and thunder. The merchant who was caught in the armpit by He Le had also seen it, and his face turned pale with fright.

He Le ran extremely fast, but the figure was even faster, catching up with them in a few clicks, swinging his palms the size of the door and slapping them at them. He Le vacated his hand and groped in his arms, originally wanting to find Ling Jian to call the police, but inadvertently touched a piece of bamboo pipe.

Boom!

There was a loud bang, and the mountain rocks beside He Le were slapped apart.

He no longer hesitated, and bit the bamboo pipe with his teeth, thinking that there would be some life-saving charm, but a strange fragrance wafted out.

The huge figure roared, as if provoked by something, and chased after it even faster. Seeing that He Le and the others couldn't escape, He Le was in a hurry, picked up the bamboo pipe in his hand and threw it out. In mid-air, the bamboo pipe spilled a line of liquid and landed in the bushes on the right.

After throwing the bamboo pipe, He Le ran with all his strength, and didn't care if it had any effect. As he ran away, there was no sound behind him, and when they saw the large army, He Le breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, the merchant boy, who had originally maintained decent clothes, was extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, He Le put him down in advance, otherwise it would have been even more ugly. Shang Gongzi held He Le's shoulder, not knowing what to say for a long time. But I can't blame him, the situation was really dangerous.

"Childe is frightened!" He Le also knew that he was wrong, or the princess would be better to hug him, or he could carry it on his back. Sandwiching the prince of a country under his arm is really hurtful to the body.

"I didn't ...... ...... matter" Shang Gongzi patted him lightly on the shoulder, deciding that he didn't care about it.

He Le was also worried for a few breaths, and soon forgot about it, but was thinking about what happened on the mountain. Shang Gongzi should have heard different words, it seems that the situation is not very good!

For Shang Gongzi, this trip was in vain, and he was frightened. It's just that as the prince of the country, he has to accept it. The current situation is full of crises for the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he has thought about a lot, such as purging the government and supporting the army, but the weak national strength can't withstand him to toss, not to mention that he has a lot of things that he can't encroach on as the crown prince. Only by asking for the immortal family who helped Gao Zu thousands of years ago may be able to exchange for a glimmer of life. It's a pity that the immortal family only vaguely pointed out a way, and asked him to wait, waiting for the time when the stars gathered.

Will star. Shang Gongzi looked at He Le in front of him, not sure if he could become one of them, and whether he could turn the tide and save him from danger like today.

The worries of the world are better than a pot of turbid wine. Shang Gongzi walked on the way back, drinking the wine in the pot and swallowing the broken mountains and rivers of the country. He asked himself that he was not a lazy person, and that he would be more diligent once he ascended the throne, but the foundation left to him at this moment was full of holes. It's no wonder that his father will be drunk and dream of death, he should have already recognized such an ending, and pleasure is a day.

In front of Shang Gongzi, there is the white-haired Sun Tianyi, who walks very straight and heroic. Shang Gongzi knew that he was a person who did not obey his orders, and no matter how great his ability was, he was also an outsider. It's not as good as Du Kui sent by the Cao family, that is the slave who can sell his life. The Yuntan Sect is very strong, but it has always stayed away from the court, and will not only take advantage of the power of the imperial court, but also help to do some shady things, but in the final analysis, they still put their own interests first, and they will not really shed blood and sacrifice for the court.

When Shang Gongzi was drunk, Du Kui carried him on his back and continued to hurry, no one said anything, just thinking about leaving the Southern Wilderness as soon as possible. There was nothing they were looking for here, whether it was Qi Liu or treasure.

He Le followed behind Du Kui, understanding Gongzi's sadness, running so far away, Ghost Ridge sent Hei Ruyi no matter what, and Tu Shan finally sent a giant monster to chase and kill. If it hadn't been for Kuri Yuan's prior arrangement, they might have stuffed the trolls' teeth between them.

Thinking that he would soon be able to arrive in Qingzhu County and see Mu Ziqing again, He Le suddenly had a spirit. He shook his head when he walked, so that Zhang Zhichun shook his head when he saw it. Obviously, the master is not happy, but you slaves are so happy, don't you want to rebel?

A little later, a pair of bright eyes also noticed He Le's cheerfulness, blinking and not knowing what he was thinking.

After nightfall, the group rested at the foot of a hill to prepare for another rendezvous with the natives the next day. This night, because Shang Gongzi was drunk and unconscious, everyone was very consciously quiet, and the cultivators were also busy practicing. Dukui and Penga set up improvised traps nearby to prevent nocturnal animals from sneaking up.

At first, it was as usual, but not long after midnight, Sun Tianyi was the first to be alert. The intense uneasiness caused him to wake up from his practice and look at the southern sky. It was dark in the south, and only a gentle breeze blew.

The second to wake up was the girl, who came out of the resting place with hurried steps.

The third was Zhang Zhichun, who was a little panicked.

"Above the Divine Transformation Realm, I am afraid that I have already comprehended the Returning Yuan Realm, and I have killing intent. After Sun Tianyi finished speaking briefly, he began to flee. It's an escape, and it doesn't care about anyone's escape.

Zhang Zhichun opened his mouth and looked at his distant back, and had a deep understanding of the ruthlessness and injustice of heaven. They are a breed that lives only for their own sake, and it is too high to judge them by human standards.

"Don't go yet!" was the girl's first warning, a little anxious.

Zhang Zhichun yelled: "Run, enemy attack!"

Everyone was awakened, and then packed up in a panic and ran away in a panic. He Le protected Du Kui and ran wildly towards the north. At this time, the advantage of the practitioner is obvious, and they run faster and faster with the Qi current as energy. And Du Kui carried Shang Gongzi on his back and was gradually left behind. Zhang Zhichun had to stop several times, and finally simply turned his back on Shang Gongzi and led them to continue running.

It's just that Zhang Zhichun knows that the powerful enemy is getting closer and closer, and with a strong killing intent.

He Le also vaguely felt the danger at this time, and the cold hairs on his entire back stood up. But he didn't dare to run with all his might, because neither Du Kui nor Peng Jia had Qi Liu, and he had carried Shang Gongzi before, so he already had a sense of rest at this time.

"He Gongzi, you run first, let's stop it. I can't run anymore, so if I continue like this, I'll just use all my strength to run. Du Kui didn't want to admit it, but he was really not good at running away. In addition, he also saw that He Le still had the strength to spare, but he couldn't bear to leave them and run away alone.
