Chapter 4: The Fall of the Princess

"Your Majesty, Wechen is ready, come with Wechen. "After a while, the fat minister returned.

followed the fat minister, Li Yu and Xiang Hao, and Yingluan, and went to the backyard after a while.

"It's really hard for you, for the queen to go to such great lengths, and specially built a courtyard, which is pretty good, the flowers and birds are singing. "I will soon be able to see the Xiao Ji who thinks about it day and night, and Li Yu is extremely excited.

"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, the queen is in this courtyard, please emperor. The fat minister bent down and motioned for Li Yu to enter the courtyard in front of him.

"Owl, Shaw, I'm here. Li Yu also shouted loudly rarely, at this moment, Li Yu felt that he was the happiest person in the world, because he could meet his beloved immediately, however, pushing open the door, Li Yu was stunned by this scene.

The yard was overgrown with weeds, the doorway was broken, thick dust covered the ground, and spider silk was everywhere, tangled in every corner. A dead silence.

"Ahh

"Hey, hey. There was the fat minister's wicked laughter.

"Let me tell you the truth, Li Yu, your queen is dead. The minister's face was full of hideousness, at this moment, Li Yu was extremely scared in his heart, he was not intimidated by the minister's expression, what could really shake a person was often what he cared about in his heart. Li Yu didn't believe that Xiao Ji was no longer alive, so what the minister said made Li Yu extremely frightened.

"I brought Xiao Ji back, and when I saw that she was a little beautiful, I wanted to recruit her as a concubine, so that I would not be discovered by King Qin, and I could also cherish her, hehe. But she refused, saying that you will definitely come back, and I gave her a year to build this yard in order to prevent her from escaping. Hey, right at this door, she walks around every day, always with a sad look, and it hurts my heart to see it. In the end, the fat minister still looked heartbroken.

"Where is Xiao Ji now?" Li Yu's eyes oozed bloodshot, and his fists clenched tightly.

"A year later, I wanted to recruit her as a concubine, but she still refused, I was going to be hard, who knew that the little woman was quite stubborn and committed suicide by throwing herself into the well. The fat minister was sad that the rabbit died and the fox died, and he wiped the corners of his eyes pretendedly, and Xiang Hao wanted to vomit when he saw it.

"You bastard, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!" Li Yu's eyes had turned red, his veins swelled, and his black hair stood on end.

"Hmph! Tell you, you have to die here today, King Qin Wei has ordered, whoever can catch you, whether you live or die, you will be promoted to a grade, Li Yu, you waste, a slave who died in the country, you can't get rid of your fate, it's better to give me a favor, I will burn more paper for you." Ha ha. As soon as the minister finished speaking, soldiers in armor appeared on the walls on all sides and on the roofs of large and small houses. There were more than 500 people.

Li Yu stood in the courtyard where Xiao Ji once lived, looked at the bluestone paved path, and staggered to the well in the courtyard. Li Yu can imagine that picture, every time the sun rises and sets, Xiao Ji, the delicate and strong woman, walks on this lapis lazuli road, holding the sycamore, looking forward to her return. I couldn't sleep late at night, tossed and turned, facing the bright moon, and said softly, "Sijun misses you, you don't see you, where is you today?" In the depths of this is the return road. Can't wait for Li Yu to come back, and was forced by the traitor, only by committing suicide in the well can he keep it clean, Li Yu seems to see this well, a beautiful woman, with tears on her face, with thoughts of her sweetheart, with reluctance to this world, jumped down in pain.

"Ahhh As a man, he can't even protect the woman he loves, but the weak woman protects herself again and again, at the expense of her life.

Li Yu's eyes were completely blood-red, and there was no other color, and he leaned weakly against the well, his neck was tilted to the side, and his mouth called "Xiao Ji, Xiao Ji"

"Xiao Ying, the situation is not good, Li Yu has a tendency to go crazy, I have to take him out of here quickly. Xiang Hao saw this scene and was anxious. Mourning is greater than heart death, a person's heart is dead, I'm afraid it will not be far from real death.

"Yes. The Divine Bird Phoenix also recognized the seriousness of the matter and replied seriously.

"Fatty, you villain, you really deserve to go to eighteen layers of hell. Xiang Hao shouted angrily at the minister.

"Haha, you are Li Yu's friend, I don't care who you are, if you dare to be disrespectful to me, then you will also die. ”

"Oh, let me die, it's so loud that even if you have five thousand people, you won't hurt me in the slightest. ”

"Arrogant boy, die. Kill me. The minister gave the order, and the soldiers who had been lurking rushed out.

"Do you know how Li Yu was rescued from the execution ground three years ago?"

Xiang Hao looked at the minister, although his voice was not loud, but his face was full of anger, angry because of his villain's behavior.

Hearing this, the minister was dumbfounded, he realized that the situation was not good, but it was too late.

A clear phoenix roared, and the endless divine fire dyed the sunset red.

The fire burned for a day and a night, and the house of the vile minister was in ruins.

In a forest ten miles away, Xiang Hao put Li Yuping on the grass.

Li Yu twitched all over, and his blood-colored eyes were terrifying.

Yingluan dispatched some beasts in the forest to pick a lot of fruit, broke it and dripped it into Li Yu's mouth, but Li Yu was still delirious.

"What can I do about this, little bird, do you know any way to wake him up?" asked Xiang Hao the Divine Bird Phoenix.

"It's the first time I've encountered this situation, he's gone mad now, I have to make him sober up first, otherwise sooner or later he will have evil blood rushing to his heart and explode to death. ”

Xiang Hao walked around beside Li Yu, extremely anxious.

The warbler is also flying around.

Suddenly, Xiang Hao seemed to have thought of something.

"Li Yu, don't sleep, wake up, people can't be saved when they die, I have seen in ancient books in the heavenly realm that there are ways to bring the dead back to life. ”

Phoenix glanced at Hao suspiciously.

However, at this moment, Li Yu's originally empty eyes suddenly blinked, his body shook violently, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood.

"There's a play!" Ying Luanfeng's eyes flashed, and her voice was very beautiful.

Xiang Hao took advantage of the situation to help Li Yu up, and put one hand on Li Yu's forehead.

Half an hour later, Li Yu's pale skin slowly turned bloody, and the color of his blood-red eyes gradually faded.

"Whew~"

Xiang Hao breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat on his head.

"What's wrong with me?" Li Yu obviously couldn't remember what had happened.

"You've been asleep for another day, and you've almost gone mad. Hey, that's a real concern. Xiang Hao said helplessly.

"Some things are a foregone conclusion and we can't force a change. Yingluan was afraid that Li Yu would think of Xiao Ji Yucheng and wanted to inform him in advance.

"Yes, I know. Li Yu lowered his head in frustration, still unwilling to accept this fact.

The two men and the beast were silent and sat quietly on the ground.

"Brother Xiang, I remember you said that you have a technique to bring the dead back to life?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know. I just said it to make you conscious. Xiang Hao told the truth.

"Still, I know of one person who might have the ability. ”

"Ah, who is it?, really?" Hearing this, Li Yu pounced on Xiang Hao and asked excitedly.

"I'm just saying he probably knows. I can't tell you who it is right now, this kind of thing is one of the great secrets even in the heavenly realm. What's more, that person is not in the human world, nor in the heavenly realm, and with our current cultivation, we can't reach that person's world at all. I won't tell you until you promise me a few things. Xiang Hao said slowly.

The matter has come to this, if there is a point of hope, you have to do 100% effort, if what Xiang Hao said is true, then there is really nothing you can do now.

"Brother Xiang, but it doesn't hurt to say, no matter what, I will do it. Li Yu said loudly.

"Actually, it's not a difficult thing, first of all, you have to change your decadent mentality and start over, and secondly, you and I have to start cultivating, otherwise, we will never be able to save your concubine. ”

"Brother Xiang, I will change my previous state, but you may not know that I am congenitally unable to cultivate, whether it is martial arts or Taoism, I am a wasted person. Speaking of this, Li Yu had a dejected look on his face.

"Who said that if you can't cultivate congenitally, you can't change it the day after tomorrow? I was really disappointed, I didn't expect the old man to let me wander with you in the lower realm, I really saw the wrong person. Xiang Hao shouted.

Hearing this, Li Yu was slightly stunned, and then spoke.

"Brother Xiang, what you said is true, can I do it all over again?"

"Well, yes, but it will be painful in the early stage, are you willing?" said Xiang Hao coldly.

"Don't be afraid, I'm willing. Li Yu was categorical.

"Hehe, that's pretty much it. ”

It was getting late, and two men and one beast lit torches and sat together.

After a brief discussion, it was decided that he would walk out of this forest the next day and go to the Tiechu Kingdom.

There is a reason why Li Yu chose to go to Tiechu.

In the Tiancheng Continent, whether it is a big country or a small country, on the basis of economy and manpower, there is also an important point is force, in addition to the country's army, the existence of various major factions in the rivers and lakes martial arts has potentially become an important factor in whether a country is strong or not.

Tie Chu is no exception, and the Nangong faction is the biggest support for the country's armed forces.

The Nangong faction is said to have been created by the sage Du Fu. Thousands of years ago, Du Fu and Li Bai, two heroes, broke into the Tiancheng Continent and created one legend after another.

However, in a mysterious war thousands of years ago, Li Bai and Du Fu were calculated by the villain and trapped in a forest, and the two fought bloodily against the enemy, but only Du Fu escaped, but Li Bai did not see the world, and Du Fu did not tell much, so that it was rumored that Li Bai died.

Du Fu composed two poems "Dream Li Bai", a few of which are "the old man into my dream, I know my appearance", "three nights of frequent dreams of the king, family affection to see the king's will" descendants all hung their heads and wept. After that, Du Fu hid in the rivers and lakes and founded the Nangong faction two thousand years ago, together with the Beimen faction, Shaolin, and Wudang, and is known as the four righteous factions.

And Li Yu is Li Bai's descendant, thousands of years ago, Li Yu's ancestors and Li Bai still had a certain blood relationship. Therefore, the Nangong faction has always taken good care of the Li family.

The next day, the sky was slightly bright, and the two of them set off early on the Divine Bird Phoenix, and it only took half a day to reach the Nangong Sect in the territory of Tiechu Kingdom.

The Nangong faction is worthy of being one of the four major righteous schools, located in a vast mountain, the mountains stretch for ten miles, thousands of peaks and ravines, the high peaks are directly inserted into the clouds, the clouds and mist are swirling, the cranes are flying, there seem to be nine days of Xuannu singing during the day, and there seems to be a weaver girl playing the piano at night.

The hall of the Nangong Sect is on the highest peak, where the highest-ranking elders live, and on the other peaks there are practice rooms, weapons depots, and the like.

"What a big deal!" Yingluan looked at the peaks in the sky, the clouds and mist, and her eyebrows widened.

"It's not as good as the heavenly realm. Xiang Hao was also very surprised.

"It's really a holy place. Although Li Yu knew that the Nangong Sect was on a grand scale, he couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of him.

The two of them walked straight into the hall, they were still curious, why did they go all the way up the ladder without anyone stopping them, in fact, who would dare to trespass on the Nangong Sect?

"Who are you?"

Before you see him, you hear his voice first.

"The third child is a descendant of the Li family. Come in, young man. ”

"Hey, is it God?"

The previous two sounds were both magnificent, and just by the sound, one could imagine that he must be an elder with high cultivation and high morality, but this last sound was as sharp as the voice of a mouse.

"God?"

"God?"

"God?"

The two of them and one beast spoke in unison.
