Chapter XXIV: Faces

Late at night, in the Valley of the Hidden Soldiers.

In the patio cell, Ji Ruxue leaned against the stone wall, breathing as if she were nothing, her face flashed with a layer of blue and white light, and her snow-jade skin was faintly revealing a warm red light, and there was a faint fragrance of plants and trees all over her body.

Just as she was healing her wounds, a rush of footsteps came from outside the door, which made her wake up suddenly, and then quickly curled up, looking at the door with wary eyes.

"Open!"

The familiar sissy tone sounded, accompanied by a bang, the cell door was pushed open by two bad people, and Shangguan Yunque's triumphant figure suddenly appeared in her eyes.

"Hmph, vixen, you'll be looking good soon."

Hearing this, Ji Ruxue, whose self-sustaining skills had recovered and improved, flashed with cold light, her graceful and graceful body was like a flash of lightning, and she was about to rush forward with her right hand turning her fingers into a sword.

How do you know that Shangguan Yunque's light achievements have already surpassed her imagination.

As soon as she got up, he took the lead and left an afterimage at the door of the cell, and the real body came to her, and the orchid finger "poo" twice, and pointed on the missing pelvic point near her collarbone.

"Still thinking about moving, moving, moving, trying to move again!

Before Ji Ruxue's steps could leave the ground, she felt numb, she didn't come up in one breath, she couldn't move, and she could only look at the sissy in front of her with hateful eyes.

Shangguan Yunque withdrew his fingers disdainfully, and took out a handkerchief from his arms with great disgust, and wiped it vigorously again, as if he had just been stained with something unclean.

After wiping it, he directly threw the beautifully embroidered handkerchief, which was worth a lot of money at first glance, into the corner of the wall and discarded it.

"Take it away!"

Just when Ji Ruxue was so angry by his actions that she frowned, she only heard his order, and saw two maids break in, walked straight to her, and grabbed her arm and dragged her out.

She was pointed at the acupoint, and her skill was far inferior to Shangguan Yunque, no matter how she urged the internal force, she couldn't make her body move at all. In the end, she could only stare at the sissy in front of her viciously, and let out a coquettish voice in her mouth.

"Dead shemale, if you want to kill it, you can do whatever you want, if the girl frowns, she won't be a person from the Phantom Sound Workshop."

"Kill you?"

When Shangguan Yunque heard this, he sighed, stretched out his hand to support Ji Ruxue's chin and twisted it vigorously, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, "You're so beautiful!" In a while, I will let you taste the taste of life is worse than death, take it away! ”

The two maids carried the beauty out of the cell, Shangguan Yunque glanced at the place where Ji Ruxue had stayed, and actually covered his nose in disgust, twisted his body, and walked away quickly, his mouth still thinking endlessly.

"Hmph, Sao Fox, there is a smell of Sao everywhere!"

The Valley of the Hidden Soldiers, on the other side.

From a distance, the candlelight from the window of one of the rooms flickered and flickered, reflecting two swaying figures.

The bad handsome stood in front of the window, with his back to Li Xingyun, and told a story of the past that was drowned in the long river of history:

"In the first year of Zhenguan of the Tang Dynasty, the warlock Yuan Tiangang entered Beijing, and was appreciated by Emperor Taizong Li Shimin, worshipping as a national teacher, while divining the stars and praying for the fortune of the country, while refining the elixir for longevity......"

With his hoarse and thick voice,

The dark red eyes of the bad handsome looking out of the valley couldn't help but reveal a trace of nostalgia that he couldn't even detect.

At that time, Yuan Tiangang, handsome and elegant, strutted with his head held high, stepped up to the Danqi in high spirits, and entered the main hall to meet Li Shimin.

And the emperor of the Tang Empire also got up in person and picked up this Taoist strange man.

Subsequently, Yuan Tiangang looked up at the starry sky, when he responded to the sky, he collected the earth's qi, supplemented by the treasures of heaven and earth, and the essence of mountains and rivers and plants was melted in a furnace in order to seek immortal medicine.

"In the twentieth year of Zhenguan, the national teacher Yuan Tiangang finally refined the elixir, but unexpectedly made a mistake when he tried it in front of Taizong, although he achieved the goal of immortality, but it caused him to go mad and fall into the ......."

The bad handsome and hoarse words conveyed an extremely clear picture to Li Xingyun, and a trace of pain appeared in his dark red eyes, which was almost forgotten by him.

At that time, Yuan Tiangang held the tray and knelt down to offer the pill to Li Shimin, and then calmly tried to take the pill.

Moments later, the tray fell to the ground

Li Shimin looked through the curtain and looked at Yuan Tiangang clutching his throat in amazement, in pain.

Subsequently, the first emperor of the ages saw the truth of the elixir of immortality, and actually sat on the ground, and the palace maid holding the fan behind him was even more frightened, as if she had seen the most terrifying scene in the world.

Yuan Tiangang survived the torture and survived the catastrophe, and the hands covering his face revealed a gap, revealing an extremely terrifying eye.

For countless days, Li Shimin paced back and forth in the hall, or leaned on the dragon chair in contemplation, or lay motionless on the couch......

"Emperor Taizong saw the tragic situation of Yuan Tiangang after taking the medicine with his own eyes, and he took care of his own reputation, so until Zhenguan died in the twenty-third year, he still didn't dare to take the pill after all."

When the bad guy said this, a gust of wind blew in the valley, and the wick of the oil lamp on the case in front of the window shook twice, but it was finally extinguished, and a wisp of green smoke rose.

The end of the memory emerged in his dark red eyes.

The rain poured down, Yuan Tiangang's back walked down the Danqi lonely, staggered into the distance, he put on a silver-black mask on his back, and slowly but firmly stepped into the darkness.

The words of a hoarse sigh sounded again, telling the end of this strange Taoist man.

"Besides, Yuan Tiangang, after this great change, had to resign from the post of national teacher, but Emperor Taizong didn't want him to bury his ability, so he ordered him to establish a secret organization dedicated to serving the royal family - bad people, with Yuan Tiangang as the bad handsome, only responsible for the emperor alone."

The bad handsome turned his back to Li Xingyun and slowly finished telling the past, and the young man had long been attracted by this story, and when he heard this, he couldn't wait to ask.

"That'...... What about Yuan Tiangang, what happened to him? ”

The bad handsome still didn't look back, but patiently and carefully began to tell what the boy wanted to know.

"For more than two hundred and seventy years, bad people have died one after another, but Yuan Tiangang has survived because he took the so-called elixir of life......"

When Li Xingyun heard this, he opened his mouth wide in surprise, he looked at the bad handsome blankly, and the answer to the question suddenly flashed in his mind, but it seemed so ridiculous.

The boy shook his head in disbelief, but spoke in an astringent tone.

"Bad handsome...... Yuan Tiangang...... You...... Are you Yuan Tiangang? ”

The bad handsome, who had his back to him, nodded slightly, affirming the answer in his heart. But Li Xingyun's reaction was even more intense, and he shook his head like a wave, constantly vetoing.

"Impossible, how can you be Yuan Tiangang, how can there be a person in this world who has lived for more than three hundred years, I don't believe it!"

Hearing his words, the bad handsome snorted coldly, and his dark red eyes appeared painful again, and he spoke coldly.

"Do you know what the side effects of that elixir are?"

"What?"

Li Xingyun was stunned for a moment, he remembered the biggest doubt in this story. In the end, Emperor Taizong saw what kind of terrible consequences he could refuse to become the real emperor of the ages.

"Do you know why Li Shimin would rather give up immortality than take my elixir?"

Speaking of this, the bad handsome stretched out his hand and slowly took off the silver-black mask.

“……”

In Li Xingyun's expectation, but with a look of rejection, the bad handsome finally turned around and exposed his true face to the young man's eyes.

I saw that Li Xingyun's expression became more and more stunned, until he ...... Afraid!
