203. Seize the heir (the third change - ask for subscription)
The Snow Queen and the King of Warriors quietly look at each other in the snow of an exotic land.
Tu Luo said: "I was looking for a place, so I wanted to get around here, but I couldn't get around, and I didn't want to attack humans rashly, so I wandered outside." I didn't expect to come across. ”
"Where?"
"The pronunciation in the ancient book is Jothelm, which translates to the country of permafrost. It is the homeland of the ancient frost giants, I will go back with them, and as for the ghost people, I have already settled in the west of the Rakshasa country. ”
Xia Ji said: "I'll take you through the customs." ”
Tu Luo smiled, and suddenly asked, "Has Gu Chen's revenge been avenged?"
Xia Ji knew that she was talking about the crown prince, so he nodded and said, "It's reported." ”
Tu Luo breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good." ”
Xia Ji didn't say that the prince was dead, and Tu Luo didn't ask anything more.
The two were silent for a long time.
Tu Luo turned around and let out a strange roar, and not long after, the silhouettes of many giants suddenly appeared in the wind and snow, and a total of more than two thousand frost giants appeared in the cold wind.
The giant led by grabbed Tu Luo, and then grabbed Xia Ji and threw it on his shoulder, and then stepped forward.
On the snow, there are huge footprints.
Giants cross the snow.
The wind and frost are blurry.
In the magical picture, thousands of giants appear in front of the fortress.
On the walls of the fortress, the soldiers watched in amazement and horror.
Their hands were sweaty, and they clung to their muskets, and they were so frightened that they wanted to shoot immediately.
Xia Ji raised his voice and said: "Princess, please open the door, the giant is just to pass the level, if it weren't for the care of human life, it would have been broken a long time ago." ”
Only then did everyone notice the two men on the giant's shoulder.
Princess Binglian was completely stunned.
The thrill of seeing humanity sitting on the shoulders of such an unconquerable giant is indescribable.
This mysterious southerner is not only back, but also sitting on the shoulders of giants?
Princess Ice Lotus's heart beat faster, and her cheeks flushed.
Someone next to him said: "Can't open the door, he's already charmed by the evil giant..."
Xia Ji jumped and flew up to the city, and the people around him were so frightened that they hurriedly got out of the way, and a circle of muskets was aimed at.
"Put down the gun!!"
Princess Ice Lotus said angrily.
A group of people looked at each other, but they didn't dare to put it down.
Princess Ice Lotus said, "Do you disobey my orders?" Put down the gun!"
"Yes..."
A group of people immediately put away their guns and retreated vigilantly.
Princess Ice Lotus looked at Xia Ji, her eyes flashing with fanaticism: "My God, how did you do it?"
Xia Ji said frankly: "I happen to know the queen of giants. ”
With that, he pointed to the giant's shoulder.
Princess Ice Lotus looked up and saw a silver-haired and blue-eyed woman smiling at her.
Princess Binglian only felt that everything was like a dream.
Tu Luo raised his voice and said: "As long as you pass the test, you won't hurt anyone, this is my promise." ”
Princess Ice Lotus looked at the giants under the city, and estimated in her heart that no matter whether it could be opened or not, this fortress would not be able to withstand the toss of the giants in front of her, not to mention that she had a mysterious confidence in Xia Ji at this time.
"Open the door!"
Just two words passed out.
The officers, soldiers of the fortress were silent for a long time.
Eventually, the order was delivered.
"Open the door!"
"Open the gates!"
The sound fades away.
The huge iron door slowly opened in the wind and snow, making a piercing and heavy sound.
Giants pass the level,
Footprints were left on the ground,
Stirring.
The entire fortress was watched in amazement by this almost mythical scene...
Time passed unconsciously, and after the last giant walked out, Tu Luo returned with the biggest giant, and she shouted from afar: "Hey~~"
Xia Ji said: "What's wrong?"
Tu Luo shouted, "Come on." ”
Xia Ji knew that the queen of the frost giant had something to say, so he stepped away.
He stood on the edge of the platform of the fortress's lookout tower, and the tall queen with silver hair and blue eyes stood on the shoulders of the giant, and the two of them faced each other, standing in the midst of the wind, frost and snow of the foreign land.
Tu Luo took out two things from his arms, a dark blue ring, and a token engraved with intricate patterns.
She handed it to Xia Ji, and then said softly:
"Frozen Ring, as long as you crush the blue gem in the center, we Frost Giants will come from the Frozen Realm to help.
The ghost order, the person who holds this order, is the distinguished guest of the ghost party.
We're allies, but this is probably the last time I'll see each other in my life...
Then let this covenant last forever, at least while I live, the covenant will exist. ”
Xia Ji understood what she meant.
As a Frost Giant, she can't get the fire in the catastrophe of the Fire Tribulation, which is the key to expanding her longevity, so her lifespan is not destined to be too long.
Xia Ji took out a golden crystal ball, and in the ball was a blue-white flame, which did not extinguish the demon fire.
He handed it out.
Tu Luo's eyes widened, "This is..."
Xia Ji smiled and said, "Friendship." ”
Tu Luo took it with both hands, and she could feel the heat of the fire, which contained both the power of destruction and the throbbing of life. She noticed the color of the flame, and couldn't help but be moved in her heart, closed her eyes deeply, and when she opened them again, she looked deeply at the man in front of her, but she didn't know what to say.
"Anytime, anywhere, even for thousands of years, he is my friend of the Frost Giant. ”
At this moment, the Frost Queen gave a promise.
The two watched silently for a long time, Tu Luo put away the flame of the immortal demon fire, and the giant she sat on had already walked away.
Princess Ice Lotus stood beside him at some point and asked softly, "Who is it?"
Xia Ji said: "A beast trainer. ”
Princess Binglian suddenly said, "I want to be my man." ”
The Rakshasa Kingdom is different from Middle-earth, love and hate are so direct.
Princess Binglian said: "Today, it has made my heart beat twenty-one times, this has never been before, I think I am in love." ”
Xia Ji touched the princess's head.
Princess Ice Lotus suddenly gave birth to the feeling that a giant dragon was petting a pet...
Instead of feeling ashamed, she sighed, she understood.
Although she has a noble status and beautiful appearance, the man in front of her is not at the same level as her at all...
Xia Jiwen said: "I need to have a long-term foothold here, help me, I help." ”
Princess Ice Lotus said softly, "If I become the Lord of Rakshasa, will I be wanted?"
Xia Ji said: "I am not a person who can accompany the white head, nor is I a person who can accompany him, but I am a person who can benefit from each other." ”
Ice Lotus Princess: "I..."
She didn't know what to say, but in the twenty years she lived, for the first time, she saw a man who was completely shining, flawless, and completely different from others, but unfortunately, this man, she did not deserve.
But she is not a fool, she already knows that such a man is by no means an animal trainer.
"I can't forget it, and I won't find a better man in the future, marry me, it's not normal to have three wives and four concubines. ”
Xia Ji diverted from this topic and said directly to the previous topic: "Do you want to be the lord of the Rakshasa Kingdom?"
It was impossible for Princess Binglian to admit it in front of people, but in the face of such a man, she nodded inexplicably, as if she didn't dare or want to deceive him.
Xia Ji said: "I help, but set up a state religion in Rakshasa." ”
Princess Ice Lotus said, "Rakshasa believes in the Church of Wolves, Serpents and Death... It's hard to change. ”
Xia Ji said: "There is no need to worry about this. ”
Princess Ice Lotus nodded, she looked at the man in front of her, only to feel more and more mysterious.
Xia Ji said softly, "Let's go, Your Majesty Princess." ”
Princess Binglian was stunned for a moment, she closed her eyes, and there was an inexplicable loss in her heart, but after all, she was a Rakshasa royal family, so she quickly adjusted her mentality, walked beside Xia Ji, and went away together.
...
...
The days that followed.
Xia Ji and Xiao Su live in the castle.
Xiao Su eats bread and drinks tonic soup every day, and his recovery from his injuries is getting better and better.
And Wangjiazhen is obviously a little mysterious, even if Xiao Su Neng faintly feels that it is in the north, but the empress sent many people but did not find anything.
At this time, Xia Ji was sitting in front of the window in a daze, and many things flashed through his mind, which were split and reorganized, and he was slowly setting the direction for the future.
Suddenly, there was a reaction in his mind.
It's Hu Xian'er.
"Master, I... I was taken to a mysterious place, where there is only my mother, and my mother wants me to eat a thousand dishes every day, am I having a nightmare, right?I am a fox spirit, not a pig spirit!Hmm~~ If I am having a nightmare, please don't respond to me. ”
So, Xia Ji didn't respond to her.
After a long time, the leather roll contract feedback: "Ah~~ It turns out that I am really having a nightmare, which is great." ”
Xia Ji couldn't help but laugh.
Since this little vixen thinks so, let her continue to think so, he won't reply to such a boring message.
But Hu Xian'er also brought a message to herself, that is, Su Tian still maintained her original position and did not suddenly change because of her disappearance.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
I took a sip of steaming fragrant tea.
The gaze passed through the long arched window and landed on the avenue in front of the castle.
The two sides are shaded, and the road in the middle is a little winding, but it is wide enough for three carriages to run in parallel.
The forest wind passed through, and on a rare sunny day, the golden light broke through the shade of the trees and fell on the cleaned brick floor, casting shadows swaying with the wind, and everything seemed extremely peaceful.
Just as Xia Ji turned around, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly broke the silence.
A messenger came from afar.
The servant took his horse, and another guard led the messenger through the long outer courtyard and a fountain of twelve demon wolf sculptures to the envoy's hall.
...
That night, Princess Ice Lotus directly found Xia Ji.
"Sir, my father summoned me back to Aurora City. I always felt like something big was going to happen this time.
I am the fourth daughter and have three older brothers, the eldest brother has a close relationship with the third brother, and I have a better relationship with the second brother.
This time, it is likely that it has come to the end... That's the step. ”
These words are taboo words, even if it is a royal family, it is absolutely impossible to say it easily, but after getting along with Xia Ji, Princess Binglian has long regarded this mysterious and extraordinary man as a dependent.
Xia Ji thought for a moment, this was obviously the situation of the battle for the heir, and he said softly: "Go to Aurora City first, and tell me about the situation in the city on the way." ”
"Good. ”
...
Three days later.
Princess Binglian led three thousand cavalry to set off.
Unexpectedly, the princess herself turned out to be a marksman, and the night before leaving, she performed a shooting, and ten times turned out to be ninety-nine rings, which can be described as very strong.
She wore white breeches, a short sword and a musket, and sat in a carriage with the Xia Ji siblings.
Looking at the brothers and sisters opposite, Princess Ice Lotus took out two boxes from one side and took out two muskets embedded with gems, "Give them to you." ”
Xiao Su glanced at it and shook his head: "I don't want it." ”
Xia Ji grabbed the plug and gave it to her, "Keep it for use, I can hear it." ”
"Well..."
Princess Binglian on the side couldn't help but twitch the corners of her mouth.
...
...
A few days later.
The capital of the Land of Ice and Snow Rakshasas.
Aurora City.
In front of a castle.
The carriage was slowly moving across the suspension bridge that hung high over the moat.
In the inner court, Ivan touched his golden beard, looked at the charming figure in the mirror, and smiled.
The final war is about to begin, although the eldest brother has the support of the army, but he has the support of the wolf snake and the Death Church, and the Ice Lotus Princess's accurate shooting can make a great contribution at a critical moment.
The most important thing is that the guards of the Ice Palace where the Lord of Aurora City resides have been bought by himself.
The guard is obviously throwing himself at the eldest brother, but in fact he is his own person, he will not betray himself, because he has a secret identity, the guard is a fanatical believer in the Church of the Wolf Serpent and Death.
Although the Church of the Wolf Serpent and Death is the state religion of the Land of Ice and Snow Rakshasas, it has always been suppressed by the imperial power.
Hearing the sound of carriages coming from far and near, Ivan got up, grabbed a scepter inlaid with rubies, and went out into the hall, where he sat down in the middle seat.
The hall is extravagant, far from being as barren as the people of Middle-earth imagined, with mythical reliefs of demonic snakes and demonstrators painted on the ceiling, and the combined arches and decorations known locally as Mocalabi show a special sense of majesty.
Light and shadow fall and the ceiling presents a moving pattern.
Squeak.
The door was pushed open.
The heroic Princess Ice Lotus walked in with Xia Ji and Xiao Su.
Ivan smiled elegantly: "Look at my beautiful sister, I haven't seen her for half a year, but she is a lot more beautiful." ”
Princess Binglian said: "Brother, let me introduce you, these two are the people I mentioned in the letter, they are from the mysterious south..."
Ivan glanced at Xia Ji and Xiao Su, and there was a very uncomfortable feeling in his heart, it was a feeling of being overwhelmed by someone else's spirit, so he frowned and said: "Even if you are a talent, when you see me in the Rakshasa royal family, you should bow and salute." ”
The voice swept out coldly.
Princess Binglian was stunned for a moment: "Brother, I wrote to me in advance, Mr. Ji is really powerful, and it will be of great help to us." ”
Ivan said lightly: "The demon wolf tells us that we need to be forbearing, the demon snake tells us that we need to be ruthless, Sophia, has the doctrine of the wolf snake and the Church of Death taught us that there is no distinction between master and servant?"
Princess Binglian suddenly realized that her brother might be a believer in the state religion, and she couldn't help but glance sideways at Xia Ji.
What she could deduce, Xia Ji could also figure out, and he said, "I'll go outside." ”
Princess Ice Lotus nodded.
Xia Ji took Xiao Su out of the arch, and there was an argument between the two in the house.
After a long time, Princess Ice Lotus walked out and returned to the residence with the two of them in a huff.
Then she quickly changed into her training clothes, grabbed the musket as if venting, and shot at the target, shooting ninety-eight rings out of ten, I have to say, she was indeed a marksman.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ji..."
"It's fine. ”
Xia Ji said lightly, sucked in his right hand, grabbed a handful of bullets on the table at random, and threw it at the target in the distance.
A hundred rounds, a thousand rings, not a single one is biased, deeply embedded in the target, far deeper than the fire of a musket.
