Chapter 67: The Past

"Auntie, I understand." Si Nanxing had already predicted this result, and she was not disappointed, "I won't embarrass you and your uncle, your uncle only needs to select a group of elites to join Nan Chen's army, and leave the rest to me."

"Actually...... As early as the surrender of Ganquan City, the city lord had already sent a force of 30,000 men to join Nan Chen's army."

"When you surrender?" Si Nanxing was slightly stunned, "Uncle, you are really bold."

"Ha, if you don't go off the rails with your sword, how can you bring down the red abyss." King Ganquan smiled, put the teacup in his hand on the table, and just wanted to say something more, but looked at Ah Kui and stopped talking.

This unfriendly look made Ah Kui feel cramped and uneasy, her body tensed, her hands clutched the wide robe, her eyes were timid, and she didn't dare to look up.

Si Nanxing hurriedly said: "Uncle, this girl was picked up by me from the road, she saved my life, she is her own person, but ......

She looked at Ah Kui with a smile in her eyes, and said, "The little girl should be tired, Gong Ci'er, you go to rest with Ah Kui."

Gong Ci has never been used to such a serious occasion, she was begging for it, and when she had an excuse, she hurriedly pulled Ah Kui and ran out.

There are no outsiders in the main hall, and King Ganquan has no scruples, "The war is about to break out, and now Nan Chen's men are full of less than 140,000 people, and they are still the remnants of the soldiers in various cities, and the army is not even, compared with the red abyss army with copper heads and iron arms, it is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg......

"So we need Mobei's assistance." Si Nanxing said.

King Ganquan sighed, "Alas...... To tell you the truth, your aunt and I have taken the risk of borrowing troops from Mobei twice, but the results have always been unsatisfactory, and this Chiyuan Grand Ceremony, Mobei also sent the prince of Hancang to participate, the mind of this new monarch of Mobei is really incomprehensible......

Si Nanxing was silent, she lowered her eyes, she didn't know what she was thinking, and after a long time, she said in a hoarse voice, "My sister...... Still in the hands of Helian Duel, I can't leave her alone in the Longtan Tiger's Den, this is the only way to save her, even if the chance is slim, I must try!"

Speaking of Si Nanyue, Si Yulin, who had not spoken for a long time, seemed to be a little moved, she knew Nanxing as well as she understood Nanyue.

"Since you already have a plan, my aunt won't persuade you, there is not much time, no matter what the result is, you have to rush back as soon as possible, Nan Chen's child is still waiting for you."

"Yes, the child obeys."

Si Nanxing got up and clenched his fists, a man's style, if it weren't for Si Yulin knowing, she wouldn't have recognized that the child in front of her was a daughter.

Si Yulin wiped the corners of his eyes soaked with tears and looked out of the hall.

The shadow of the daylight on the ground gradually moved, the sky outside was getting dark, the lights in the tent were not lit, Si Nanchen's face was hidden in the darkness, Jiang Jifeng couldn't see his expression clearly, but he clearly knew that the young man was crying.

"Nan Chen, you make it clear, if your eldest brother is pretending to be that girl from Nanxing, how can Xu Feng admit his mistake? The faces are happy and easy to look at, but their bodies are too different, how can they be the same...... One...... Sample ......"

In the end, Jiang Jifeng's tone became slower and weaker, yes, he remembered......

Many years ago, when he was still in Lingyue Villa, he heard the old pharmacist inadvertently mention that there was an evil art in Mobei that could change the shape of the body, called osteogenesis.

This method can change the bones of a person, but because it is too dangerous, it is not possible to use too much hemp boiling on the practitioner when performing this procedure, so the surgeon should watch his body being cut by a knife and watch the bones of his whole body separate.

If necessary, the healer will also add other people's bones to adjust to the right state.

The flesh and skin will use a special medicine called the bug to stimulate it to grow again and adapt to the new bones.

Convertible bugs are medicine, but they are also poisonous.

It can temporarily change a person's appearance, but for a maximum of two years, the poison will penetrate the entire body of the practitioner, eating away at the bones that have just grown, and the practitioner will become the original form, but soon after the poison will die.

Although this osteomorphic technique is magical, it is rarely used, first, it originated in the distant Mobei, and second, it is not only cruel, but also extremely dangerous, requiring a doctor who cannot make a mistake

Surgery requires strong endurance from the surgeon, and from ancient times to the present, there are only a few successful cases recorded in medical books.

Jiang Jifeng didn't want to believe it, "What are you kidding? I don't know the character of my little apprentice, although she loves to dance with knives and guns, but she is also very hypocritical, and she must always pay attention to a small cut in her hand when practicing swords, how can she withstand such a ...... Painful ......"

In hindsight, Jiang Jifeng recognized Nanxing's handwriting on the envelope, and he knew that Nan Chen's guess was correct.

Blurred by tears in front of him, Jiang Jifeng's body squatted weakly on the ground, and fell into a deep silence in the tent......

On the other side, in the city of Ganquan King.

King Ganquan saw that their aunt and nephew had finally met each other, and told them a few words such as "Madame pay attention to her body", and then asked them to go back to the palace to catch up.

Si Yulin originally wanted to send Nanxing to the Flying Feather Pavilion outside the city to meet her mother and sister-in-law, but she didn't expect to be rejected by her.

"Why don't you go and see them?"

"Aunt, Si Nanxing is already a dead man, but Si Nanyang needs to continue to live." She smirked, a little starry in her eyes.

"But my mother and sister-in-law can't know that my brother has returned to this world, because the war has not stopped, and I am in danger of dying at any time, I can't give them hope, and bring them despair again, and when I snatch my sister back, it's not too late to meet them again."

After hearing these words, Si Yulin re-examined the person with a firm expression in front of him, it seemed that she had changed not only her appearance, but also her heart was very different from before.

Although it was very cruel, Si Yulin still asked the sentence: "If it is Nanyue...... Can't you come back?"

"Impossible! Even if I fight for my life, I will never let her stay with that madman!"

"Fighting for your life?" Si Yulin repeated these words, she suddenly stopped, and asked with a heavy face, "Nanxing, aunt asked you, you don't hesitate to ...... What is the purpose of torturing yourself by using bone building to torture yourself, and asking your brother to come back? Is it to protect the people of Zelu City and restore the country? Or is it to save your sister?"

"Nature is to save ......"

The answer was almost about to blurt out, but in order not to be scolded, Si Nanxing suddenly changed his statement, and even his tone was much smaller, "I...... Naturally, I am for the dawn of the people......

"You're farting!"

"Auntie, you're actually scolding!!"

Si Nanxing, who heard this, was dumbfounded, since she could remember, she grew up under her aunt's knees with her sister, and she also admired her aunt's exploits on the battlefield, so she liked to dance with knives and guns since she was a child.

The young aunt is both civil and military, although she is a little proud, but she is more royal and dignified, no matter how angry she is, she has never heard her speak wildly.

"Not only will I scold you, but if I have strength now, I will beat you...... cough cough cough cough ......"

Si Yulin suddenly coughed violently, and Si Nanxing hurriedly gave her a sigh of relief, "Auntie, don't be angry, I'm ...... I'm just worried about Sister, and besides, whether it's for Sister or for the people, don't I do the same thing?"

"Ahem, ahem, ahem, ahem......"

Si Yulin held on to the pillars of the corridor, coughing and speechless, it took a while to calm down, and after drinking the tea brought by the maid, she suddenly asked Si Nanxing a question that had nothing to do with the topic, "Nanxing, do you remember your seventh uncle?"

"Si Fengqi? Yes...... No...... Naturally, I remember Uncle Seven."

Si Nanxing hurriedly changed his words, no matter how much he hated this person, Si Fengqi was also his aunt's only younger brother, and she couldn't be unreasonable in front of her aunt.

"Alas......" Si Yulin sighed, "Back then, in order to fight for the throne, he ruthlessly got rid of the fifth brother's family, even the baby in the swaddling clothes, and wanted to kill your parents, he really doesn't deserve you to call him uncle."

When she was older, she loved to recall the old things more than when she was young, once upon a time, the younger brother of the mother's compatriots was also well-behaved, calling her "eldest sister", but unfortunately in the end, it was she who personally sent him on Huangquan Road.

With another helpless sigh, she asked again, "Nanxing, do you know why I was in the first place,

Will you choose to put your father in the position of lord of the city?"

"Because Si Feng ...... Belch...... Because the seventh uncle is mediocre and cares about human life like a mustard, if a person like him sits on the throne, the whole country will be uneasy, so my aunt will ......

Si Nanxing suddenly kept silent, she seemed to know what her aunt was going to say to her.

"Auntie...... for the sake of the people."

"Wrong!"

Si Yulin refuted this righteous and awe-inspiring statement without thinking, and said word by word: "You hear clearly, my question is why your father became the throne and not your other uncles."

"Because ......" Si Nanxing frowned slightly, "Because my father is upright and loves the people like a son......

"Wrong again! Your sixth uncle can do no worse than your father, and when your sixth uncle is alive, with his intelligence, he may be able to do better than your father."

Aunt is still so unforgiving when she speaks, Si Nanxing vaguely remembers that the person his father feared the most when he was young was Aunt Yulin, and she herself was the same, after all, when she practiced sword with her aunt, she was beaten almost three meals a day.

"Auntie, don't play dumb riddles with me, it's not that you don't know, my brain can't be compared with my sister."

Si Yulin didn't pick up the topic of Shangcai, she turned around and walked in front, Nanxing followed quietly, seeing that the body that was once as loose as Yang had seen aging, and her heart was even more touched.

She was stunned, and then heard Si Yulin ask, "Nan Xing still remembers that when you and Nan Yue were eight years old, she had a serious illness?"

"Of course I do, and I know that it's not a disease at all, it's the poison of the long night!" Si Nanxing's tone suddenly became heavier, and his fists were clenched.

That is a memory that Si Nanxing will never forget in his life, when his father and mother were detained by Si Fengqi for the crime of rebellion, nine deaths, and her brother, who was six years older than her, ran everywhere, trying to save her parents' lives, and in that stormy night, only she and Ah Chen, who was only four years old, guarded the eldest sister who was poisoned into the heart and lungs.

She clearly remembered that she knelt on the edge of the bed, holding Sister A's hand in despair, watching her become more and more painful and weak, and in the end, Sister A's seven orifices were bleeding, her hands and feet were cold, almost no different from death.

"Fortunately, my aunt brought the elixir at dawn, otherwise Sister wouldn't have survived that night."

"Do you know who poisoned me at that time?"

"Of course it's Si Fengqi!" She answered without hesitation.

"He was in military power at that time, why should he poison your family if he wants to kill your family?"

"This ......" Because of surprise, Si Nanxing stayed at her feet for a moment, for so many years, she had never thought about this problem.

Then she chased after her again, "I've hated the wrong person for so many years? So which traitor poisoned my sister? Ah...... Auntie, don't sell it!"

"Alas......

Si Yulin stopped, turned his head to look at Si Nanxing, there was indescribable emotion in his vicissitudes of life, and the next words she said directly fixed Si Nanxing in place.

"The person who poisoned Nanyue back then was herself......
