Volume XIX, Chapter 14

The two of them drank about the same amount of wine, and finally the two of them were drunk on the table almost at the same time, and the guards saw this, so they helped the two back to the king's bedroom, because the king had just said that he wanted the prince of Zhenguo to sleep with him, how dare the guards disobey his orders, and a person like the prince of Zhenguo, who is valued by the king, is the first time in so many years that the guards are all shrewd people, how dare they have not served them thoughtfully!

Things went very smoothly, Xie Zhenguo not only met his son Xie Tianzong, but also feasted those who wanted to see him, easing some relations in society, of course, all of this was arranged by King Wu Zhujun, Wu Zhujun's weight made Xie Zhenguo very moved, and swore allegiance to the king.

All this went so smoothly, Xie Zhenguo's family was deeply blessed with the emperor's grace, and his reputation rose rapidly, and he became a big celebrity envied by everyone in Miyun Country, but God still made a huge joke with Xie Zhenguo, this thing did not happen to Xie Zhenguo, but to Xie Tianzong.

When Xie Tianzong accompanied King Wu Zhujun to inspect the aristocratic school in Xie Zhenguo, there was a king's personal intercession, which was a big face, and where did the school not agree, so Xie Tianzong was specially given a few days off to let his father and son get together to enjoy the joy of family.

I didn't expect things to come out of this, Xie Tianzong is extremely intelligent, and his grades in school are also quite excellent, of course, with his family background, the school does not dare to slack off, and sends the best teachers to teach him, Tianzong does not live up to the expectations of the school, his grades and cultivation have improved extremely quickly, and others in the school call him a prodigy, for this. Xie Zhenguo was also quite satisfied, according to Wu Zhujun's meaning. At that time, it was going to be a hereditary position such as a marquis of Xie Tianzong, but. Xie Zhenguo politely refused, because the honor given to him by the king was too much, not to mention that the child was still young, and he had not made an inch, so he was not ashamed of it, and this would not be conducive to the growth of the child.

Father and son, who had been separated for eight years, finally met, and it was so sudden. Xie Tianzong has only heard of his father's heroic deeds from his mother and grandparents since he was sensible, and knew that his father was a great hero, but he had never seen it, but today he suddenly saw his father, and he didn't know how to say it for a while, and for a while the father and son looked at each other, speechless and choked.

It was Wen Yuni who broke the embarrassing silence and pulled the father and son together. said to Tianzong: "Tianzong, call father, he is the father you often think about, usually you shout to see him." Why didn't you dare to speak after seeing it today!"

"Daddy!" cried out timidly.

"Hey, good boy, I really want to be a father. Alas, time flies. It's been eight years in a blink of an eye, and I didn't expect you to grow so big. I think when I just left, you had only been born for three days!" Xie Zhenguo couldn't help but hug Xie Tianzong with mixed feelings and said affectionately.

"Okay, okay, you father and son, this is not your home, you better go back first!" Wu Zhujun was also a little moved to see this situation, knowing that they didn't see more father and son, there must be endless words, there was no place and time for them to talk about their father and son in the school, so they asked the guards to send Xie Zhenguo and his wife back to the mansion first, and he stayed in the school with the queen to socialize, the queen saw that Tianzong was so well-behaved and cute, of course, it was also appropriate to recognize Tianzong as a godson, Wu Zhujun was also happy to be a ready-made godfather when he saw this, so he accepted Tianzong as a righteous son in front of everyone, although the king was requested by Xie Zhenguo, and did not give Tianzong an official position and title, but only by virtue of His Majesty's righteous son, it has made everyone enviousSince he has won the favor of His Majesty the King, the title must be a matter of time, and since he is the godson of the king and queen, the reward is of course even more important.

Xie Zhenguo retired with great gratitude, and returned to the mansion with his wife and children under the escort of the royal guards, the father and son, plus Xie Zhenguo's parents, the five of them chatted for half a night, if it weren't for the entertainment set by the king the next day, Xie Zhenguo really wanted to stay up all night and talk about it with his family.

The next day was the time for the banquet arranged by the king, and Xie Zhenguo knew that Wen Yuni definitely didn't want to go to this kind of scene, and he was not reluctant, so he went alone, leaving Wen Yuni and Xie Tianzong in the mansion.

Tianzong was in a very happy mood, he didn't expect his father to be so majestic, even His Majesty the King personally accompanied him to see him, and the king and queen also accepted him as a righteous son, which was a great honor, especially Xie Zhenguo's promise to teach him his family inheritance of Moyun marksmanship and cloud blasting fighting spirit made him even more happy. Although grandpa can also do this kind of kung fu, but there are always some deficiencies, and Wang Yongbin and Wang Zhiheng have also taught him, but they are not proficient, especially these three people often say that their father has cultivated Moyun marksmanship and explosive cloud fighting qi to the realm of perfection, if you can get his personal guidance, it will be a great benefit.

After all, Tianzong is an eight-year-old child, childlike heart, after practicing a morning's kung fu, he deserted, playing around in the house alone, there are no other children in the house, Tianzong has no playmates, and this mansion is given by the king himself, and it didn't take long to build it, the most important thing is that Tianzong was sent to the aristocratic school since he was a child, and he didn't have much time to come back.

Inadvertently, Tianzong came to his grandfather's room, he wanted to play with him, but unfortunately he was not at home, Tianzong saw that there was no one in the room, so he began to churn around, making a big fuss in the sky, grandpa's things in the house were unlucky, all of them were displaced, but, even so, grandpa will not blame him, he is a single lineage of the Xie family, grandparents and grandparents usually love him very much, and only these two elders, often go to school to see him, although the mother is against the two elders, but the two of them are elders, and they have to accommodate the two, so Tianzong has a very deep affection for grandparents。

When I was bored, I climbed onto the bookcase and threw all the books on the floor, unintentionally. I saw a grid in the bookcase, and there was a bronze bird that seemed to be inlaid on it. So he played with it curiously, not wanting to press it hard. The bookcase suddenly came to a big flip, bringing Tianzong to a secret room, like Tianzhong, a big family, there are one or two secret rooms in the house, but this secret room is more strange, because there are no secret items here, but an ancestral hall, and the light in the secret room is not dim. A few thumb-thick luminous stones illuminated the entire chamber.

Tianzong also saw it at a glance, it was the ancestors of his Xie family, although Tianzong was not very sensible, but he still knew that this was his ancestor, and the general ancestral hall was in the backyard, but why did the ancestral hall in his own family be placed in this secret room, it was really strange.

Tianzong carefully observed for a while, and found that this secret room was not anything special, but it was a bit nondescript to have an ancestral hall here. However, he is a child after all, and he doesn't know what to say about fear or ghosts. He didn't pay attention to it at all, maybe he had never done anything like a dark room, so he was more bold. Tianzhong's two eyes shot everywhere, and he knew that there must be a famous hall in this ancestral hall. Otherwise, why is it set so secretly, the heart of a child is like this. Curious, he feels new to everything, and he likes to play 'scavenger hunts', always thinking that there are good things hidden in them, and he wants to find them all.

The result was very disappointing to Tianzong, there was really nothing in this ancestral hall, because he had already searched inside, but he really didn't find anything, Tianzong finally gave up looking for it, and sat on the ground dejectedly.

I didn't expect him to sit down and find a mystery, because he was small, when he sat on the ground, he just formed an oblique angle with the offering table above the ancestral hall, and he could see the bottom of the entire offering table, if it was an adult, it would be impossible to see.

Tianzong couldn't help but get up, quickly got up, got under the table, a piece of black, touched the flat ridge with his hand, nothing, but just now Tianzong clearly saw a black light flickering under the table, did he just look dazzled, Tianzong didn't believe this, he knew that there must be something hidden under the table, but why can't he find it now, it's strange, however, Tianzhong's strength came up again, he decided to look carefully, so he drilled out of the offering table, took out a luminous stone, and carefully searched under the offering table。

This is indeed an ordinary table, there is nothing unusual, and the workmanship is still relatively rough, Tianzong carefully knocked on the table, there is nothing unusual, but, under his careful observation, he finally found a crack under this table, this is a very thin crack, if it is not close to the careful observation really can't be seen.

Could it be that there is something in this? Tianzhong thought suspiciously, but this was like a crack in the offering table itself, there was a crack in the ordinary table, this is a very common thing, not to mention that the workmanship of this offering table is so rough, and it is normal to have a crack. But Tianzong is a child's nature after all, and he acts intuitively, and he feels that there must be a mystery in this table, and he will investigate it to the end.

Searching down the cracks, Tianzong found that this is indeed a mystery, the cracks on the offering table are not naturally formed, but artificial, and after Tianzhong's carving, the cracks are generally depicted, and the result is very surprising to him, because according to the shape he draws, this is completely the mark of a knife, which means that someone has completely set a knife at the bottom of this offering table, and if it is not for the small Tianzong people, and so patient, ordinary people will never find it, even if the offering table is turned over and carefully examined, they will not find anything, because the scabbard of this knife is woodenAnd the technique of inlay is very ingenious, the whole knife and the scabbard are tightly embedded in the bottom of the table, if it is not for the age, there are some cracks in the knots, even Tianzong is difficult to find the mystery.

I didn't expect that there was really a treasure hidden, Tianzong was really happy, since this knife was hidden so secretly, maybe it was something magical, Tianzong did not hesitate at all, he took out the small dagger he carried with him, and dug this knife out from the bottom of the offering table.

Tianzong happily took the knife and looked at it carefully, the blade of this knife was narrow and long, and the blade of the knife was about two and a half feet. With the handle of the knife, it is exactly three feet. It's about the same as the people of Dao Tianzong, and it's a little too long to hold it in Tianzong's hands.

Tianzong curiously grasped the hilt of the knife and jerked it hard. Only then did I find that the scabbard of the whole knife was not wooden, because the wooden scabbard was only the outer scabbard of the knife, and the knife itself also had a scabbard, which was not gold or silver, non-copper or iron, and the texture was very soft, like the leather of an animal, and it felt very comfortable, soft and delicate in the hand.

Tianzong twitched hard curiously, trying to pull the knife out of its scabbard. Seeing the true face of Lushan with the knife, he didn't expect that he didn't pull out the knife with all his strength, which provoked Tianzhong's bull temper.

He stepped on the tip of the knife with his foot, held the handle of the knife with both hands, and pulled it out vigorously, trying to pull the knife out, but the scabbard of the knife seemed to be glued to the body of the knife, and no matter how hard Tianzong tried, he didn't pull it out. But. The knife was stepped on by Tianzong like this, and the tip of the knife was slightly bent.

"It turns out that this is still a soft knife!" Tianzong picked up the knife and folded it hard, this knife was really soft. It can be bent into a circle, but it is not as soft as a normal soft weapon. Because although it is soft, it is still rigid. It is impossible to use it as a weapon such as a soft sword.

"It's a strange knife, but why can't it be opened!" Tianzong was puzzled. After a few more attempts, the result was the same, without pulling the knife out of its sheath.

"What a mess, it's really useless!" Tianzong felt a little interested, and the child lost his temper and threw the knife on the ground.

After doing it for a long time, Tianzong also felt a little tired, and couldn't help but sit on the ground to rest, at this moment, something strange happened suddenly, a trace of smoke suddenly slowly appeared on the knife that Tianzong lost, this is not white smoke, but black smoke, and it is getting thicker and thicker, and the entire knife is annihilated.

"Hey, it's a strange thing, how can there be so much smoke!" Tianzong couldn't help but feel very curious, so he picked up the knife again, and as soon as the knife left the ground, the black gas suddenly disappeared.

The knife is still so plain, the dark hilt is still dull, Tianzong really doubts that he was dazzled just now, otherwise how could such a strange thing happen.

Staring at the knife for a while, Tianzong suddenly had a whim, held the handle of the knife and pulled it hard, the blade of the knife came out in response, a cold light flashed and disappeared, Tianzong held the knife in his hand and couldn't believe it, just now he tried all kinds of methods and didn't pull out the knife, and now he just pulled it out easily, it's really a strange thing.

Don't look at the handle of this knife is dark and unremarkable, but this knife is definitely not ordinary, the blade is like a flood of autumn water, the light is shining, the aura is compelling, although Tianzong is not very knowledgeable about weapons, but he knows that this knife is definitely a good weapon by feeling, and he doesn't know how many years it has been hidden under this table, but it is still so radiant and shocking. Based on this alone, we know that this knife is a divine weapon.

Tianzong held the knife, suddenly had an urge to dance, he is not very good at knives, nor is he good at knife skills, although he has dabbled in knives in school, but his family martial arts is known for marksmanship, so all the energy of Tianzong is focused on family martial arts, and the knife can only be described as not too unfamiliar.

But this strange knife was held in Tianzong's hand, and he played with it carefully, he suddenly felt as if he was being swayed by some kind of power, and a magical knife technique suddenly appeared in his mind, and his hand involuntarily danced.

A huge sword qi rolled up in this small secret room, everywhere the knife qi went, everything was shattered, and a good ancestral hall was completely destroyed by Tianzong, however, he immediately found that he seemed to lose control, because he found that it was not that he was controlling the knife, but that the knife was pulling him as if it had a spirit, and a dizzy feeling surged into his heart, Tianzong only felt that his chest was uncomfortable, and he involuntarily spurted out a mouthful of blood.

After that, he felt that the energy of his body leaked sharply, and in an instant the whole body seemed to be drained, becoming powerless, the body was empty, Tianzong couldn't help but stop his hand, his body shook for a while, he couldn't stand up at all, and couldn't help but thrust the knife into the ground, wanting to use the knife as a crutch, but the entire knife body was completely submerged in the soil, Tianzong stumbled, lost the support point, and he could no longer support his body. He fell to the ground, and his consciousness collapsed in an instant. The whole person fainted.

When Tianzhong woke up, he was already lying in bed. It turned out to be Tianzong's grandfather Xie Chengde came back, as soon as he entered the room, he saw that his room was in a mess, and he knew that it was this naughty grandson who made a fuss, except for him, who else dared to make such a big fuss in his room, however, what made him feel strange was that he sent people to look around and found no trace of Tianzong. And the next person also proved that Tianzong had never been out of the house today, he couldn't help but feel anxious, and suddenly he found that the bookcase seemed to have traces of being moved, could it be that this naughty guy ran into the secret room, this secret room is not a big secret, and there is nothing special in it except for the tablet, Tianzong should not stay in it for too long.

Still, he decided to go in and have a look. This opened the bookcase and entered the secret room, only to find that Tianzong had fallen to the ground and was unconscious. Now he was in a hurry, and hurriedly took Tianzong out, not even noticing that there was a knife stuck in the ground. Of course, the strange knife is now almost completely submerged in the earth. Only one hilt remains, and the chamber is a mess. It's a mess, his mind is all on Tianzong, who would have the heart to pay attention to such a small object. Xie Chengde rushed out of the secret room with Tianzong in his arms, on the one hand, he sent someone to ask for a doctor immediately, and on the other hand, he sent someone to ask Tianzong's father, Xie Zhenguo, to come back to discuss.

Xie Zhenguo was in Changqin with everyone, after listening to the report from his family, his face couldn't help but change, he was scared into a cold sweat, and he woke up immediately.

When Xie Zhenguo arrived, all the people had already gathered, Tianzhong's grandparents, mother, except for Xie Chengde, the two women were crying like a tearful person, they couldn't imagine why a good child, just a blink of an eye, would become like this, and he was still unconscious, and his life and death were uncertain.

After the diagnosis and treatment, the husband said to the relatives of Tianzong: "Don't worry, the little young master is just getting rid of the void, there is no big problem, as long as you input some energy, you can wake up, however, what makes Zai Xia wonder is why the true qi in the little young master's body seems to be emptied, who would be so heavy on a small child!"

"What, are you saying that Tianzong's true qi has been drained by others! This is an evil sect's kung fu, however, there are not many people who can do this kung fu, how is this possible, besides, he has been in the mansion and has never gone out, so why should he just attack Tianzong!" Xie Zhenguo said in surprise.

"Don't worry, the little master's injury is not serious, let's wait for him to wake up, I'll prescribe him a dose of qi and blood tonic medicine, and when the little master wakes up, give him a dose, I believe he will recover immediately." ”

"In this case, please go to the outer hall and speak. Xie Zhenguo led the doctor out.

In the expectation of everyone, Tianzong slowly woke up, saw his grandparents, his father and mother were anxiously looking forward to it, and couldn't help but want to get up, but he felt a sore feeling all over his body, and he couldn't exert a little strength, as if someone had pulled out his vertebrae, his whole body was loose, and he couldn't focus at all.

"Oops!" Tianzong cried out in pain.

"Baby, what's wrong with you!" Wen Yuni asked with concern, she saw Tianzong like this on the side, and her heart ached, her son is the heart of her parents, how could she not be heartbroken when she saw her child like this.

"I can't do anything, what's wrong with me!" asked Tianzong with a frown.

"It's nothing, child, don't worry, you're just out of strength, it'll be fine after a day or two, don't worry, lie down obediently, ah!" Grandma hurriedly comforted on the side, this baby grandson, but her heart and soul baby, now it has become like this, how good it is in her heart, a grievance, tears fell again.

"Oh, don't cry! There is nothing wrong with the sky. Xie Chengde couldn't help but feel a little upset, and after calming down his mind a little, he asked Tianzong softly: "Good girl, who injured you, do you know?"

"Hurt me, no one hurt me!" Tianzong wondered how his grandfather could ask such a question.

"Then how did you get hurt? ”

"Well, I accidentally got the knife under the table, but I didn't think about it, but I was inexplicably fainted by the strange knife, I woke up and lay here, no one really hurt me!"

"What! There was a knife hidden under the offering table, but why didn't I see it when I went in?" Xie Chengde said in surprise.

"What kind of knife is this, and it can be so powerful, but our family has never heard of such a thing!" Xie Zhenguo was also surprised.

"You two take good care of Tianzong, Zhenguo, you go to the secret room with me to see if there is really a knife!" Xie Cheng picked up Xie Zhenguo and ran to his room.

Xie Zhenguo followed his father to the secret room, it was really strange, the two of them searched a little, and really found a strange-style knife lying flat on the ground.

Just now, this knife was obviously inserted into the soil by Tianzong, but I didn't expect it to pop out automatically now, and it was automatically put back into the scabbard.

"Dad, where did this knife come from, what kind of knife is it, and how is it so weird!" Xie Zhenguo asked puzzled, even he didn't know that there was really a knife hidden under the table, it seemed that Tianzong was not lying.

"This ......"

"Dad, do you have anything unspeakable!" Xie Zhenguo looked at his father's appearance of wanting to speak and stopped, as if he was hiding something from himself, and couldn't help but ask.

"It's been so many years, I thought this was purely a fictitious thing, this was originally a secret, but I didn't expect our Xie family to really have this kind of thing!"

"Dad, what the hell are you talking about, the more I listen, the more confused I become!" (To be continued.) )
