Prologue VIII
The two walked opposite each other on the small bridge. Strangely, the water under the bridge is swimming against the current.
The man in white smiled and said, "You're here." This person looks like twenty-five or sixteen, slender, courteous, his eyes are not big, but his eyes are particularly bright, and his nose is high, like a beautiful man. This person is Wang Jien's nephew ——— Wang Chengyong.
"Brother Chengyong, is it really you? I've fulfilled the promise we made. ”
"I know, maybe it should have been for me to solve, but I chose to escape, it's hard for you to work so hard."
"What is this? We're good brothers! ”
Wang Chengyong said sadly: "Hmm... Good brother, if I could really have a brother like you, maybe I wouldn't need to choose that path. ”
"Brother Wang, where is this?"
"Nai He Bridge. I said that I was entrusted by Lord Yama to take you to the underworld, do you believe it? ”
"Uh..."Liu Zhan was full of black lines and said, "Won't Lord Yama have a few more years of grace?" I have a lot of work to do! ”
"No, I haven't heard that the king of Hades will let you die in the third watch, and he won't keep people until the fifth watch!"
"Ah, alas... Brother Wang, we have a relationship, can you just pretend that you haven't seen me, and let me go back. ”
"Huh? Good idea, or give it a try. However, I heard that those who escaped will not only be subjected to the cruelty and harassment of the world's powerful ghosts, but also if they are caught, it is estimated that they will enter the eighteenth layer of hell. ”
"Even if I go to hell in the future, I don't want to die like this! I still have a lot to do! ”
"Then if you beat me, I'll let you go."
"Humph! I have defeated your uncle Wang Jien, and I have not been idle for so many years. ”
"yes. My uncle has lost to you. ”
"If it weren't for your uncle Wang Jien, you wouldn't have been our enemy at the beginning, and you wouldn't have faced us with swords, and finally chose to die."
"My parents died young, and my uncle raised me from a young age, and he believed in me and expected a lot of them. He is my only relative, and I can't be an enemy of him. But since he saw how Taizu died and how the current emperor ascended the throne, his ambition is also on the throne. He wants to help me as an emperor, and he also thinks about me. Who wouldn't want to be an emperor in this world? Wang Chengyong smiled bitterly.
"But you don't want to. Isn't it? ”
"My father told me from a young age to be loyal to the country and worthy of the world. Uncle wants to go against the sky, but he really shouldn't. I don't want my uncle to bear the name of usurping the throne, only if I die, can I break his thoughts. But he still couldn't stop his ambition. Now, you have defeated your uncle and let Zhao Yuankan ascend the throne. I beg you one last thing. ”
"What's the matter?"
"I hope you can intercede with the emperor and let my uncle live." Wang Chengyong immediately knelt down.
Liu Zhan hurriedly helped him up, "Brother Wang, why are you doing this?" Alas, even if you are a ghost, you can't change your stubborn brain. I tried my best to plead with the saint, but if I couldn't succeed, I could only see the emperor's heart. ”
"Thank you, then I'll take my leave. It should be impossible to see each other again in this life and this life, and if we can, I hope we can still be brothers in the next life. ”
"That's fine. But in the next life, I want to be an older brother! ”
"Good! You call it out. ”
"Won't you ask Yunkai?"
"No need to ask. She's going to have a good time with you. I grew up with her, and she was the first girl I liked, but she treated me as an older brother. What's more, I'm already a dead man. Wang Chengyong smiled with relief and said, "You have to treat her well, if you don't treat her well, in the next life, I won't let you be a brother." ”
Liu Zhan said unconvinced: "It's just that you were born two years before me, so I called you brother." Yunkai I will treat her well, we also have a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, Tian'er and Yue'er, do you know... Before the rest of the words could be spoken, Wang Chengyong had already pushed down the path under the bridge.
"You shouldn't have come here yet, go back."
"But what about you?"
"Hanxiang is still waiting for me. Don't look back, go back. ”
"Brother Chengyong! Brother Cheng Yong. Liu Zhan sat up abruptly and shouted. Looking around, I saw Yun Kai, who was leaning on the bed railing and woke up because of his own shouting.
"Was it a dream?"
Yunkai heard Liu Zhan's shout, woke up, rubbed his eyes, and saw Liu Zhan who got up and sat on the bed, his confused eyes immediately glowed, and he hugged Liu Zhan and said, "Brother Zhan, you're awake!" ”
Liu Zhan looked at Yun Kai, his face was sallow, a little haggard, his hair was also very fluffy, and he hadn't had a good make-up for a few days. On weekdays, there are faint dark circles on his big eyes, and there is no look on his face due to lack of sleep. Liu Zhan was hugged by Yun Kai so suddenly, and suddenly felt unbearable pain in his chest, and he couldn't breathe, so he coughed up "cough". With that hug just now, Yun Kai's breasts pressed heavily on Liu Zhan's injured chest, which naturally made Liu Zhan breathless. Yunkai also listened to Liu Zhan's cough, and hurriedly asked, "Brother Zhan, how are you?" ”
Liu Zhan said intermittently: "No... Nothing, you first... Let go of me. ”
Yun Kai let go of Liu Zhan and asked with concern, "Well, how are you?" ”
Liu Zhan couldn't say that Yunkai suddenly felt uncomfortable, so he said, "Yunkai, go and pour me a glass of water." ”
"yes, okay." With that, he got up and walked to the table.
Liu Zhan opened through the window until the sky was shining: "Yunkai, what time is it?" How long have I been sleeping? ”
Yun Kai poured water and said, "It's time now, you've been in a coma for about three days." ”
"It's been so long! So what's going on now? ”
"What's going on?"
"Has Zhao Heng ascended the throne? How are Lord Lu and Zhentian doing? As he spoke, he was about to get up from the bed with both hands, but as soon as he tried to exert his arms, he felt that his whole body was weak, not only his chest, but also all over his body, and his forehead was sweating because of the pain. Yun Kai saw Liu Zhan want to get up, and hurriedly put down the water cup in his hand. came over to help Liu Zhan, leaned him against the fence at the head of the bed, put the pillow up behind Liu Zhan, and let Liu Zhan lean his back against the bed rail. After placing Liu Zhan, he said, "Shaking the sky, they are fine." Brother Han said that your injury is not light, if you wake up, don't move. "Go and bring the glass again.
"I just want to get up and move, who knows it's so difficult...
Yun Kai handed the water cup to Liu Zhan, Liu Zhan took it, and took a sip slowly, Yun Kai saw him drinking water, so he went out and called a subordinate, saying, "Go and invite Mr. Han quickly, just say that Master Ma is awake." The man nodded, and ran quickly.
At this time, Hanfeng also walked in, and when he saw Liu Zhan, he was very happy and said, "Master Horse, you are awake!" It just so happened that the young master and the young lady also picked it up. ”
Liu Zhan was puzzled and asked, "Have the young lady and the young master gone out recently?" ”
"After you left that day, the princess arranged for the slave maid to send the young lady and the young master to Xiangguo Temple."
Yun Kai said: "Xiangguo Temple is favored by my father, and I have gone there many times to burn incense and pray. The host there is also a high-ranking monk, and he has won the trust of his father, and even if Wang Jien wants to come to make a success, he will not dare to go there to make a mistake. I asked Hanfeng to arrange the two children there, if you really have any accidents, let Hanfeng take the two children and go to Nanyang to find his father-in-law quickly. ”
Liu Zhan's stepfather is Ouyang Jian, the owner of Zhurenmen, and it is not Ouyang Jian who directly recognizes Liu Zhan as his righteous son. It's just that Liu Zhan and Ouyang Jian's youngest daughter Ouyang Lan married Jin Lan, and Ouyang Lan's father naturally became Liu Zhan's father-in-law. Ouyang Jian has always liked loyal people, and after learning about this incident, he was also very happy with this righteous son.
Hanfeng interjected: "During the period when the horse master was unconscious, the princess has been praying for you at the Bodhisattva every day. What else do you say that you are willing to exchange your life for your life! If you die, she won't live alone or anything. ”
"Windy! Just talk a lot about you. ”
Liu Zhan took Yun Kai's hand and said affectionately: "It's hard for you to think so much, don't worry, for you and the child, no matter what, I will definitely live well." ”
Yun Kai also looked at Liu Zhan affectionately, "I know that as long as it is something you believe, it will definitely succeed." The two looked at each other affectionately.
"Ahem!" Han Ji coughed twice deliberately. When the two heard the voice, they immediately came back to their senses, Yun Kai's face was flushed, and Liu Zhan also smiled at Han Ji. It's been a while since Han Ji came over, but the two of them are too affectionate and ignore the existence of other people. Han Ji and Liu Zhan are friends of life and death, in order to understand Liu Zhan's situation as soon as possible, they have been in the Horse Mansion for the past few days.
Han Ji pretended to be serious and said: "The weather has been dry these days, and my throat is not very comfortable. You two go on, it's okay, leave me alone. ”
Liu Zhan said angrily: "If you don't want to be in charge of you, don't keep quiet!" ”
Hanfeng leaned over and said, "Brother Han, are you uncomfortable in your throat?" Then he went to the table and poured a glass of water for Han Ji, saying, "Let's drink some water first." Han Ji took the cup, and was also a little embarrassed for a while, and said, "Thank you, Miss Hanfeng." ”
Hanfeng smiled and said, "It's okay, I should do it." ”
Han Ji took a sip of water, handed the cup to Hanfeng, walked next to Liu Zhan, and checked Liu Zhan's pulse. got up again and looked left and right at the wounds on Liu Zhan's body, his face was very serious. After checking for a long time, Yun Kai saw that Brother Han had a frown on his face, and he was also a little worried, Han Ji was checking Liu Zhan's chest, and suddenly hit Liu Zhan on the chest with his backhand.
Liu Zhan suddenly felt pain at this time, and burst into a sentence: "I'll go, your uncle!" ”。
Han Ji said with a smile: "It's okay, I can't die!" Just take care of it for a while. Then he got up and sat down at the table, continuing to drink the glass of water he had just finished.
Yun Kai was also taken aback just now, but when he heard Han Ji say that it was okay, he sat on the edge of the bed and gently rubbed Liu Zhan's chest. was a little angry and said, "Brother Han, Brother Zhan is like this, you still beat him." ”
Han Ji still smiled: "What, the princess is distressed." He has suffered Wang Jien's iron fist, and I can still hurt him in a powerless Jianghu Langzhong! ”
Liu Zhan replied: "I'm afraid that the rivers and lakes are not, but the scum of the rivers and lakes is more suitable for you." ”
"Thank you for the compliment! This title is actually okay. ”
Liu Zhan was also a little speechless, this Han Ji is almost forty years old, and he is still so unserious. Liu Zhan "snorted" him, then closed his eyes and used his internal strength to turn into cold qi to freeze some painful places to alleviate the pain. Han Ji saw Liu Zhan's face turn blue, and sighed: "This Ice Spirit Flower is really a strange thing, I thought that after dissolving the flame poison on your body, it would disappear in a few years." But it's been ten years, and it seems to have been integrated with the meridians and internal power in your body. ”
"Does this have any effect on Brother Zhan's body?"
"It's hard for me to say if there is any big impact, but at present, it seems that the physique has become cold, and it seems that other drugs can no longer have any effect on Liu Zhan's body. And his internal strength is attached to the cold, which is an effect that some people can't practice in a lifetime. He took another sip of water and said, "But you're not in good health right now, so you'd better be careful." In the dead of night, don't do anything too drastic. When Yun Kai heard this, his face became more and more red. Liu Zhan was originally lucky, but when he said this, if he wasn't incapacitated now, he would really have to get out of bed and "take care" of this big brother.
"Brother Han, you are really not serious." Yun Kai blushed shyly, and squinted at Liu Zhan, who was pranayama.
