The man in black held a scimitar in his hand, wanting to kill the tiger's life, in the dark and secluded night sky, a dazzling white light quietly appeared, which was as small as a peach pit, the more and more it gathered, it was like a nebula rob, ever-changing, accompanied by colorful auspicious clouds around it, and the brightness of the white light increased instantly, as if it was as bright as the morning sun, and the post was illuminated as bright as day.

The man in black had never seen this spectacle and vision, he was shocked, covered his eyes with his hands, and was looking up, and suddenly, a child fell high from the white light, like a meteor falling into the sky, not biased or oblique, just hit his head, the man in black fell to the ground, his brain cracked and died, there is a way:

Good and evil will be rewarded in the end, and the way of heaven is good reincarnation.

If you don't believe it, look up, the sky has spared anyone.

After a while, the lights flickered in the distance, the sound of hooves shook, and another team of people came up from Huba Gang, the first one, about eight feet long, born with a white face like a crown of jade, if the lips were greased, the eyebrows were thick, the eyes were like a star, as bright as a jade tree, if it was more shy than a lotus flower, handsome and extraordinary. The one who came was Mu Nianjun's husband, Ji Yanyun, the lord of Xuanyuan Kingdom.

It turned out that today Mu Nianjun returned to his mother's home Bai Minguo and agreed to return before sunset, but Ji Yanyun waited in the Yuxiao Palace until nightfall, and still did not see his wife return, so he couldn't help but be worried and anxious, and took the remaining three Vajra protectors (the second protector Pi Luo Ye, the third protector Sha Luo, and the fourth protector prisoner), put on torches, and searched all the way along the mountain road.

The four of them just walked to the foot of the tiger bully post, and suddenly heard the sound of killing on the post, so they followed the sound to find it.

When Mu Nianjun saw Ji Yanyun, his heart was filled with joy and sorrow, a pair of apricot eyes were full of tears, snuggling tightly in front of his chest, thinking about what happened just now, his whole body trembled, and he couldn't help sobbing softly.

Ji Yanyun saw that his wife was suffering from this tragedy, his heart was very painful, he hugged him tightly, whispered softly, bandaged her, and was angry, the muscles on his face trembled, and asked Who was so bold that he dared to attack the carriage with the word "Ji" in the territory of Xuanyuan Kingdom, which really ate the gall of a leopard!

Mu Nianjun wiped his tears, couldn't care about himself, and hurriedly said: "Husband! Leave me alone, save the tiger quickly, he ...... He's poisonous! Ji Yanyun comforted: "Madame, don't worry, the tiger exterminator has already taken the Spirit Flower Dew Pill, and it is expected to be fine." ”

The second protector Pi Luo Ye picked up a few darts from the ground, came to the front, Ji Yanyun pinched a dart, measured for a moment, this dart is only more than two inches, the dart body is slender and smooth, the dart head is thin and sharp, the two ends are pointed, the middle is flat and wide, and the shape is like a willow leaf.

Ji Yanyun said: "This is a willow leaf dart, in the entire Pangu Continent, only the red copper produced in the Xiaoci Mountain of the Northern Di Kingdom, plus the black iron of the Intestineless Country of the Northern Xuanwu City, can be made after repeated calcination and hammering. ”

"This willow leaf dart is small and light, and it is not easy to be found when it is played, so it is very suitable for robbers who do not have a deep foundation in internal cultivation and use it for roadblocking."

"Lord of the Kingdom! It must be the robbers of the Beidi Kingdom and the Intestineless Country, coveting the wealth of our Xuanyuan Kingdom, and uniting to poison the lady! When Bi Luoye heard this, he was furious.

Ji Yanyun shook his head and said, "It's too early to come to this conclusion......

"Lord of the Kingdom! There's a dead body! ”

Ji Yanyun followed the prestige and found the man in black who had fallen to the ground not far away, and had lost his breath. Lying on the ground straight on his back, his body was already cold, his double-headed whirling scimitar was thrown aside, his brains like tofu flowers were mixed with dark red blood, red and white were mixed together, splashing all over the ground, how miserable his death was.

Who is this person? Tearing off his black mask, Ji Yanyun was taken aback. Under the black mask, there is an obscene and ugly distorted face, which looks like a roe deer, eyes as small as a mouse, a figure-eight beard, and several black and yellow teeth in the mouth.

The monarch of the Beidi Kingdom had no heirs, so he adopted six righteous sons, named Yellow Leopard, Red Fox, Red Wolf, Green Fox, Blue Spider, and Black Crow. These six righteous sons usually do those unsightly things for Chun Yuchou, and they have long been notorious for spying on the secrets of other countries, and Ji Yanyun has also heard a little about it, but he didn't expect that he would dare to spy on Xuanyuan Kingdom today.

It turned out that a few days later, it was Chun Yuchou's forty-ninth birthday, and the crow wanted to rob Xuanyuan's "Longevity Sutra" as a congratulatory gift to his father-in-law, but he never thought about it but died here.

"It's really Beidi who did it!" Biroye gritted his teeth.

The three protectors of the Dharma sand camel, kicked the corpse several times, and scolded: "Phew! It's such a way to die, it's really cheap, this bastard! ”

Next to the crow's corpse, there was a seventeen or eight-year-old boy, who was very handsome, with fair skin and exquisite facial features, which made people love it. The boy lay quietly on the ground, breathing evenly, with a steady pulse, and did not appear to be injured, but as if he was asleep, he could not wake up.

Ji Yanyun asked Mu Nianjun, where did this son come from?

Mu Nianjun couldn't say why, he just said that it fell from the sky, and he told Ji Yanyun about the sudden white light in the night sky, the little boy falling from the sky, and smashing the black crow to death.

Ji Yanyun was shocked, but also deeply puzzled, looking up at the sky, the night sky was dark, except for a few dim stars in the sky, I didn't see the so-called white light, the sky can rain, snow, hail and ice, but I have never heard of people in the sky?

Although he felt that this matter was very strange, Ji Yanyun couldn't say that he was ugly, and thought: No matter where he comes from, after all, this son saved the life of his wife and the tiger, so it is better to take him back to the Yuxiao Palace for the time being, and when he wakes up, it is not too late to ask again, at that time, all the doubts will naturally be solved.

Everyone looked around and checked again, and the house slaves of the guards were all hit in the heart by the willow leaf dart, and they had already lost their breath, except for the coachman Lin Mu, who was still breathing weakly, but he lost too much blood, his face was pale, and he was already angry.

"It's not good to stay here, you have to leave quickly!"

Ji Yanyun and the others dug a soil pit, buried the dead house slaves on the spot, and then hurriedly returned to the Xiaoxiao Palace with the bodies of Mu Nianjun, the tiger exterminator, the little boy, and the black crow......

Xuanyuan Guoguo capital Xiaoxiao Palace, is located at the top of the mound mountain, the terrain here is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the east, west and north are all the hundred-zhang cliffs of high ten thousand thousands, the cliff is covered with stinger iron thistle terrestris, people can not climb, only the south moat, can enter and exit with a suspension bridge.

The defender of the city, Nangong Hua, the first trusted general under Ji Yanyun, was ordered to lead the ironclad army to patrol day and night to prevent undesirable people from other countries from prying eyes.

Jin Ming Palace, the main hall of Dongxiao Palace, is the place where Ji Yanyun discussed national affairs with everyone. The palace is resplendent with gold, eight golden silk nanmu disc dragon pillars support the top of the hall, several nine-leaf lotus copper lamps dance with flame flowers, such as the red moon and the rising sun, the whole hall is brightly lit.

In the middle of the hall to the north, there is a tiger skin throne, Ji Yanyun sits on the throne, the following is divided into two rows to sit, in front is several respected crane hair elders, in the middle is Bi Luo Ye, sand camel, prisoner Ke three protectors, the last is many nobles in the country, although there are many people in the hall, but silent.

The door of the hall suddenly opened, and several young and beautiful maids walked in, gently serving a few fragrant teas, and then lowered their eyes, and hurriedly retreated, and the hall fell silent again.

Ji Yanyun picked up the teacup, took a sip, and saw that everyone was silent, so he took the lead in breaking the silence.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Beidi Kingdom wants to rob my "Longevity Sutra", I think everyone already knows, I invited everyone here today, just to listen to your opinions, what do you have to say, but please speak up!"

The second protector Pi Luo Ye was the most anxious, and said: "Is it tolerable or unbearable!" Beidi Kingdom relies on its own strong army, and has never taken our Xuanyuan Kingdom in its eyes, so it is better to use this matter as an excuse to send a large army to conquer, and it is best to destroy it completely! ”

"Lord, never!" When a white-haired and red-faced elder heard this, he hurriedly stopped it.

"Chun Yu is ugly and does a lot of injustice, and he should die sooner or later, but the city lord Jiang Bingrong has already said that without his permission, the countries under the White Tiger City have those who send troops without authorization, which is regarded as rebellion!"

"Not bad! It is better to inform the city lord of this matter, and I believe that it will be dealt with impartially. Another elder chimed in.

The third protector couldn't sit still, got up and said: "If you are afraid of death, my second brother and I will personally lead the troops forward, I want to see, Chun Yu Chou has some ability!" ”

"Lord of the country, it is better for me and the other three to lead the army to meet the Beidi Kingdom, first, to seek justice for my wife, and second, to avenge my eldest brother." Since the two elder brothers have spoken, the four protectors of the law prisoner Ke are naturally not far behind.

Although these four Dharma protectors have different surnames, they have a deep relationship, and they have followed Ji Yanyun for many years, and they have long been like brothers, and now the eldest brother killed the tiger and almost lost his life, and the other three must hate Beidi to the core.

Ji Yanyun was silent, and he knew very well in his heart that the three Dharma protectors were quite loyal, but they were brave and resourceful, and what Elder Hu (red-faced elder) said was also reasonable, if he wanted to hide from the city lord Jiang Bingrong and send troops, it would not be easy.

A nobleman stood up and said, "Lord of the country, elders, there is a word below, I don't know whether to say it or not?" ”

"Mr. Jia, there are no outsiders in the hall, there is nothing wrong with saying something."

This nobleman surnamed Jia was originally a wealthy merchant in Xuanyuan Country, and his business spread throughout the Pangu Continent, because he was kind and generous, and he gave generously many times to save countless victims of disaster, so he had a good reputation in Xuanyuan Country, and Ji Yanyun gave him the status of a nobleman and let him participate in the major affairs of the country.

Jia nobleman said: "The black crow took advantage of the night to rob the "Longevity Sutra", whether it was instructed by Chun Yu Chou, or he did it personally, it is not yet known, and it is not known that he will take the army to conquer the army, and the army will inevitably end up in trouble, according to the villain's opinion, the lady has returned safely, it is better to take harmony as the precious, the big thing is small, and the small thing is small, and the child will be handed over to the Beidi Kingdom to deal with, so as to calm the anger in Chun Yuchou's heart." ”

As soon as these words came out, there was an uproar in the hall.

"Lord, this plan is not feasible! The dignified Xuanyuan Kingdom actually pointed to a child in exchange for Gou An, if this matter spreads, what face will we have to stand between heaven and earth? ”

"It's clear that Beidi is bullying people too much, why do you want us to take the initiative to make peace?"

"That's it! This surnamed Jia is obviously afraid that the war will affect his business, the lord of the country, we must not swallow this evil breath! ”

"That's right! Even if it wasn't for Chun Yu's ugliness, I'm afraid it would have nothing to do with him. ”

……

……

Is it war, is it forbearance, is it peace? Everyone argued, Bi Luoye and the other three Dharma protectors, hearing that they were going to hand over the child, the three of them were so angry that their teeth hurt, their eyes were full of anger, and they stared at the nobleman surnamed Jia viciously. This nobleman surnamed Jia did not expect that his words would arouse the anger of the public, his face was red and white, very ugly, and he only promised to return to his original seat and said no more.

The matter is big, if it is not handled properly, the two countries may see each other, at that time, the peace that has lasted for nearly a hundred years in the Pangu Continent will finally be lost in his own hands, Ji Yanyun did not speak, and looked at the first elder in the right row, this person has white hair, but his face is red, his eyes are bright, and he has never spoken, but he quietly listened to everyone's opinions, and the corners of Shicai's mouth smiled slightly, and he seemed to have all kinds of ideas in his heart.

"Elder Bai, what do you think?"

The elder surnamed Bai coughed lightly, twisted his beard, and said calmly: "Soldiers, the major affairs of the country, the way of life and death, must not be careless. According to the old man's humble opinion, it is better to throw stones to ask for directions, repair a book and Chun Yu Chou, and tell the story in detail, if the two countries can sit down and talk, they can avoid fighting, otherwise, send a large army to crusade, the name is right, and it can also block the mouth of everyone, even if the city lord knows, it is unreasonable to choose. ”

When everyone heard this, they all rejoiced and whispered.

"Look at Elder Bai, who is worthy of being the patriarch of the Three Dynasties, and his long-term vision is to consider problems, unlike some people who only know that harmony is precious."

"That's natural, otherwise people can sit in the position of chief elder......"

This Bai Elder, surnamed Bai Mingshi, is an old minister of the three dynasties of Xuanyuan Kingdom, in his early years, he followed Ji Wen (the founding monarch of Xuanyuan Kingdom) to overcome obstacles, expand his territory, and have a noble status in Xuanyuan Kingdom, because he is humble and courteous, never arrogant, and is deeply trusted by the three generations of kings of the Ji family, and later assisted Ji Yanyun as the chief elder. When there is a major event in the country, Ji Yanyun will ask him for advice before making a decision.

"Your opinions, I already know, please go back, as for war or peace? Tomorrow will be decided. Ji Yanyun got up and left, and everyone dispersed.

Leaving the Jin Ming Palace, Ji Yanyun went straight to the room where the tiger was slayered.

The tiger was lying quietly on the bed, his whole body was covered with a black ointment, wrapped in a white cloth, the injury improved slightly, the skin on his body was no longer ulcerating, and most of the black toxins on his face had receded, but a few hours had passed, his breathing was weak, his pulse was shallow, and he was unconscious.

On the left side of the killing tiger, there is another bed, on which is lying the forest tree, the room of the forest is next to the killing tiger, in order to facilitate the care, Ji Yanyun asked the servant to carry it over, his situation is much better than the killing of the tiger, although he is also in the willow leaf dart, but the dart is not poisonous, but the blood loss is too much, the body is weak.

Ji Yanyun has taken the Blood Nourishing and Qi Pill, as long as he meditates and recuperates for a few days, he can be cured.

As soon as the front foot stepped out of the door of the tiger killing room, a strange wind blew in his ears quickly, Ji Yanyun looked up, and saw a strange situation in the sky, and the roaring wind swept the black clouds, covering the sky and the moon, and was rolling towards the Xiaoxiao Palace.

It's going to be a change!

But at this time, Ji Yanyun couldn't care about this, what he wanted to know most in his heart was who that child was? How could he suddenly appear in Hubagang? If the boy can wake up, the truth will be revealed, and at that time, between the Xuanyuan Kingdom and the Beidi Kingdom, it may be possible to turn the conflict into a jade silk.

Thinking of this, Ji Yanyun's footsteps hurried, and he came to his and Mu Nianjun's bedroom, Liuhua Pavilion.

In the pavilion, the ancient fragrance is quiet and elegant, the golden beast incense burner on the grain wood table is filled with lavender, and the faint flowers and plants are fragrant and smoky, which are emerging from the fine holes on the golden beast, filling every corner of the flower pavilion, a beautifully decorated incense couch leans against the east pavilion wall, and the couch is lying in the tooth bed tent, which is the boy.

Mu Nianjun sat sideways on the edge of the incense couch, carefully feeding the decoction, Ji Yanyun stepped forward lightly and asked in a low voice, "Can you wake up?" Mu Nianjun sighed softly, shook his head helplessly, then got up, came to the textured wood table, turned around and asked, "Husband, how is everyone discussing?" ”

Ji Yanyun also sat beside him, held his hand, and asked rhetorically, "What does Madame mean?" Before Elder Bai and the others arrived, Ji Yanyun already had an idea in his heart, but as the virtuous monarch of Xuanyuan Kingdom, he still had to listen to the advice widely to know what everyone was thinking, just as he deliberately tested his wife at this time.

Mu Nianjun pondered for a long time, and said: "The founding of Xuanyuan has gone through three generations, the country is prosperous, the people are healthy, such a prosperous era is not easy to come by, if the two countries fight together, everything will die, the foundation will be destroyed, and the concubines and children will probably also be exiled to the end of the world." ”

Mu Nianjun's words said to Ji Yanyun's heart, the war should not be taken lightly, but it is not fear, although the national strength of Xuanyuan Country is not as strong as that of Beidi Kingdom, but it is also among the great powers, if you really want to fight to the death, you will only lose both, and no one can bargain for anything.

Ji Yanyun stroked his back and said with relief: "Madam, don't worry, I will definitely make the two countries stop fighting and make peace." ”

Mu Nianjun listened, smiled, and fell into Ji Yanyun's arms, the couple kept warm for a long time, and Mu Nianjun's words changed: "Husband, how are the injuries of the tiger and Lin Mu?" ”

"The dart that hit the forest tree is non-toxic, as long as you recuperate for a few days, you can recover as before, just kill the tiger ......"

"What's wrong with the tiger exterminator?" Mu Nianjun asked with an anxious expression.

Ji Yanyun got up and walked to the window, looked at the rolling black clouds outside the window, and said with a gloomy expression: "The five poisons devouring the heart are far more toxic than I expected, just in Hubagang, I searched the whole body of the black crow, but I have not found an antidote, and the Linghua Dew Pill can only make the toxin no longer spread, as for whether he can survive this hurdle, it all depends on his creation." ”

Mu Nianjun also came to the window, gently hugged Ji Yanyun from behind, his delicate cheeks pressed against his broad back, and said, "The tiger was killed to save me, you must find a way to save him!" After that, it is difficult to hide the sadness.

Mu Nianjun is everyone's beautiful background, knowledgeable, born with a bodhisattva heart, and sentimental, today in the tiger gang, kill the tiger to protect its innocence, regardless of the poison in the body, and the crow to fight to the death, this grace, Mu Nianjun should be grateful in his heart.

A few lines of tears slowly slid across her dignified and beautiful face.

Ji Yanyun felt pity, wiped his tears, and said softly: "Madame, don't worry, I have sent someone to Xuanwu City with a letter to Nie Erguo, and ask the monarch Lu Fan for the world's first antidote elixir ear rat pill, this medicine can cure all the poisons in the world, Lu Fan and I have a great friendship, I must not be stingy." ”

"That's great!"

When Mu Nianjun heard this, he turned from sadness to joy, but Ji Yanyun suddenly frowned, as if he was thinking.

"Husband, what are you thinking?"

"Madam, the matter of your return to the White Republic today was temporarily agreed in the morning, and there were only you and me in the house at that time, how did the black crow know?"

Mu Nianjun nodded and said: "I also think it's very weird, judging from the situation at that time, the black crow seems to know our whereabouts well, and has already ambushed in Hubagang in advance, just waiting for us to fight there." After a pause, he continued, "Could it be...... He was hiding in the house at the time? As he spoke, he looked around, his face frightened.

Ji Yanyun was silent, with his internal cultivation, any wind blowing and moving within dozens of steps around him could not escape his ears, even if he closed his qigong, he could hear the sound of his heartbeat, it was definitely not the black crow hiding in the house and eavesdropping, presumably someone deliberately leaked the news, who could this person be?

"Squeak", the door suddenly opened, a five or six-year-old female doll, with a double bun on her head, wearing a brocade embroidered jacket, and two bare feet, jumped in, the female doll laughed and plunged into Mu Nianjun's arms, coquettish for a long time, only then raised her immature little face, and said: "Mother, why did you come back so late, so that the cicada misses it." ”

This female doll who calls herself Cicada, her full name is Ji Yuechan, she is six years old, she is the only daughter of Ji Yanyun and Mu Nianjun, she was born with a round face, beautiful peach cheeks, a pair of big eyes that are icy and watery, and she is cute.

"Didn't my mother tell the cicada that if you go to your grandmother's house today, you will come back later."

"Huh? Who's that guy? How could he lie on his mother's bed? ”

Looking at the sleeping little boy on the couch, Ji Yuecian tilted her little head, her clear eyes were full of all kinds of curious doubts, Mu Nianjun picked up her daughter, hummed a nursery rhyme softly in her mouth, and told her the story of the little boy......

Knock knock! Suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door, which interrupted the Huan Ning of the family of three for a moment, and the sergeant in armor came in a panic to report: "Oh no, the lord of the country, the north ...... The army of the Northern Di Kingdom is coming! ”
