readx;
Early the next morning, the two left in a hurry, carrying the letter sent by Xiao Yao, and rushed all the way back to the royal capital. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The royal capital is already under martial law, there are people interrogating each other in and out, flying has been banned for ten miles outside the city, and the streets are full of patrolling soldiers, although this is the rear of the battlefield, but the tense atmosphere can be felt by everyone.
Many officials were worried, but the businessmen were slightly better, and they were all protected by the Huitong Chamber of Commerce. Yi Yang took most of the troops away, leaving only a small part of the guard army, if it is said that the main force guarding the city, in fact, there are more people from the Chamber of Commerce.
The two opened the courtyard door and walked in quickly.
The old man was sitting under a tree in the yard, grabbing a piece of meat and feeding it to a mountain eagle perched on the tree.
This mountain eagle is very old, very old, and has been with the old man for many years.
"Master, the disciple is back. Zhongli wanted to walk over, and Zhengse said, "I have seen the person that Master is waiting for, and I have brought his handwritten letter." ”
"Didn't you miss it?" the old man didn't raise his head, still smiling and teasing the old mountain eagle in the tree.
"Disciple...... Impotent. Lin Lang also walked over, she hadn't been to this place for many years, and when she saw Master again, she was a little timid in her heart.
"It's Xiaolin, I haven't seen you for a long time, I've grown a lot taller, and my appearance is open, very good. ”
Lin Lang didn't know if what Master said was very good, referring to his defeat at the hands of that person, or simply referring to her appearance.
The old man took the letter, and was not in a hurry to unfold it, and asked casually: "What moves do you use to deal with him, tell the teacher." ”
Lin Lang's cheeks couldn't help but turn red, "The disciple killed another person, using a demon nightmare, a ghost mirror lock, a snake whip, and ...... Shadow Kill. ”
Zhong Li added on the side: "That person arrived suddenly, and one shot broke the junior sister's trick, and that shot is called Cloud Piercing Strike." ”
"It's a little too ugly to lose. The old man shook his head, "After all, it's a girl, it's better to go out and hit the wall, lest you think you've learned a few magic tricks and don't take others seriously." ”
"The disciple came to his senses and wanted to continue learning kung fu from the master. ”
"It's too late, it's too late. The old man shook his head, "Since his letter has arrived, the date and place of the decisive battle must have been chosen, and I don't know if I can live." Besides, I'm very old, and the Demon Dao is the martial art I hate the most, and it's also a true portrayal of my sinful years. You have talent, you just need to practice hard and challenge, and how you go behind depends on yourself. ”
"Disciple, remember Master's teachings!"
"Nothing else, just step aside. ”
The two nodded, and quietly exited the courtyard gate.
The old man unfolded the letter, and when he saw the content on it, he couldn't help but smile.
Got up and walked slowly into the house and removed the gun from the shelf on the wall.
When he returned to the courtyard, he went to the well to draw water, brought a large grinding stone, and carefully polished the two ends of the blade, and did every step meticulously.
After sharpening the gun, he turned his head to look at the old mountain eagle, and said lightly: "Old friend, I'm afraid I won't be able to continue to accompany you in the future, I'm going out." ”
"Fly away, go back to the mountains and forests where you lived. All things have spirits, and in the twilight of their lives, they all want to find a good home. ”
The mountain eagle just looked at him, pecking at his feathers.
The old man stretched out the barrel of his gun to it, struck it like lightning, and stabbed it upward!
The eagle couldn't dodge it at all, but the old man shook his wrist just as he was about to hit, and the tip of the spear immediately sank some distance.
The mountain eagle was frightened and flapped its wings and flew up.
"Go back to the mountains, old friend. ”
The mountain eagle flew around the old man's yard three times, and as if he understood the old man's words, he flew away towards the north.
He smiled contentedly, pushed the door open, and strode out.
Ye Wei walked into the main hall quickly, and shook his head at Xinjun with a calm face.
Xinjun sat on the throne with his ass, and the whole person looked stupid.
He was silent for about a few minutes before he slowly spoke: "Didn't Captain Ye say that this matter is nine out of ten? The person who invited you is still your most eye-catching senior brother and sister, and the two of them can be guaranteed in case of success, so why did they miss it?"
"It's a bit complicated to explain, in short, they met a strong man, and they couldn't fight against it. ”
"So, is there any other way...... Save my sister, Qin Chong can make conditions!"
"If he puts forward conditions, eighty percent of them will let you be tied up, as for the rest...... He lacks nothing. ”
"That's it, you go back to Yi Yang quickly, he needs you. Qin Chong killed my sister, then I can only use his head to avenge my sister, I'll wait here to see, the Sword Alliance will be wiped out!"
"Command! Then the subordinate will retire!"
The forces have been merged in one place, across the river, both sides no longer send spies, all the strength is on the surface, everything is known, and the difference in numbers is very small.
Night.
The fourth princess was secretly escorted into the camp, and she was silent all the way, as if she had already put life and death out of the way.
She was taken to a spacious stone house, and the cicada personally brought the wine and food, which was very hearty.
"Eat some, you haven't eaten a few bites of food in the past few days, why, you want to starve yourself to death first?"
The fourth princess was silent, as if she hadn't heard.
"It's the last meal in my life, I ordered someone to make it for you, so let's eat more, at least I won't become a starving ghost when I die." ”
"I don't eat it. She found that if she didn't talk all the time, the bright woman would keep talking.
"Do you ever fantasize that someone will come to save you? Actually, there really is, and you almost succeeded, and this feeling of despair in the bottom of your heart is not comfortable, right? I also experienced it back then, in fact, I understand what you think and feel now. ”
"What the hell are you trying to say?"
"You can choose to die or you can choose to live. This is your own decision, I can't complain about others, I don't particularly want to say anything, just come and see, you can't stand the psychological pressure and commit suicide. Learn from General He, who guarded the fortress, when the time comes, our boss will cut down a corpse that doesn't feel anything, how boring it is. ”
"My brother will avenge me. ”
"Don't be reckless, you must be afraid of death in your heart now, and if you want to get rid of this panic and fear, there is a good way, and that is to get yourself drunk. I've already brought the wine, why don't you try it?"
The fourth princess hesitated, didn't even take the cup, unscrewed the bottle and poured it directly into her stomach.
She choked at first, and soon coughed.
She was really afraid of death, all her thoughts were seen through by the woman, and she was always looking forward to someone to save her.
When death did come, the fear came from instinct, and she was not as strong as she thought. It's just that the words that go out,It's like spilling out of water.;Cool craftsman m:Net j.only ☆ l a}y positive q version,f its 8 he h are t+ is pirated od
"It's good to get some sleep, the decisive battle is tomorrow, and you won't feel too lonely after you die, because the people you know and care about will come to accompany you. ”
