Chapter Twenty-Eight: Brothers Are Strange
Zhong Hualong was shocked, and raised the Qinglong Sword to rescue Wang Linhu.
Abu's Golden Bell Sanskrit is a combination of the Golden Bell Jar, the Lion's Roar Gong and the Sutra of Good Nature, with extremely powerful attack power and even more defensive power. Once launched, the momentum shook the heavens and the earth, and the wind howled, but people could not concentrate and calm down.
Even though Zhong Hualong's body is like the wind, the Qinglong Sword is a rare divine weapon in the world. Abu, on the other hand, stood firmly in place, like a golden mountain, standing still, but his speed towards Wang Linhu slowed down.
Zhong Hualong: "Brothers, if you don't come forward yet, when will you wait?" β
Miao Yuelin and Lian Xiaozhen only woke up from a dream at this moment.
The battle between the five became more and more intense, and the air around them seemed to be ignited. The sword qi is vertical and horizontal, and the Sanskrit sound shocks the sky. Each attack carries a devastating force that makes people's hearts palpitate.
Abu didn't go all out, leaving room for each of his attacks. It's not that he doesn't want to kill Wang Linhu, and the combined strength of the four of them is not much different from himself, if he attacks with all his strength, he is likely to lose both.
In this way, the four of you come and go, and the fight is inseparable. Their figures staggered in the air, and the sword qi and Sanskrit sound collided in the air, making a deafening sound.
After a fierce confrontation, the four of them separated, and Abu suddenly put away the golden bell Sanskrit, and his figure flashed, standing in place. And Zhong Hualong and the others also put away their weapons and stood in place to breathe, obviously consuming a huge amount.
"Abu, the golden lion, really lives up to his name." Zhong Hualong exclaimed.
"Wuqizhuang, famous in the rivers and lakes, admire and admire." Abu responded.
The two looked at each other and smiled. Although this battle did not distinguish the winner or loser, it was enough to make both sides unforgettable.
At this time, Wang Linhu, who was not far away, had not yet come back to his senses. He looked at the thrilling scene in front of him, and his heart was filled with awe. He knew that if it weren't for his sworn brothers desperately trying to save him, he would have died on the spot.
Miao Yuelin turned around, looked at Wang Linhu and said, "Third brother, are you okay?" β
Wang Linhu nodded and said, "It's okay, it's okay." β
When everyone was greeting, Miao Yuelin said: "My fourth brother's matter can't be settled like this, I will take this girl away first, this matter has nothing to do with other people, if you want to seek revenge, you can come to me Miao Yuelin." Saying that, Miao Yuelin came to Xue Ning's side, restrained her acupoint, and flew away.
Nan Tong and Xuan Rui were shocked, and immediately chased after them. Nan Tong said while chasing after him: "There is Brother Lao Song who will send medicine to Luoyang." β
Due to the suddenness of the incident, the rest of the crowd had not yet had time to react. Zhong Hualong said to Abu and Song Jing: "Prince, there is no way to restrain the sister, but I promise you that this girl will not be harmed in any way. β
After that, he ordered the brothers to take Liu Yunfeng and leave quickly.
Song Jing knew that he couldn't delay any longer, so he followed Abu to Luoyang.
On the way, Song Jing learned that Abu was carrying a full load of goods and hoped to return the goods to Dashi Country through the Silk Road. However, they did not expect a heavy snowfall to block the way home.
That day, the sky began to darken, and snowflakes began to fall. At first, it was seen as a minor episode in the journey, after all, the winter in the Western Regions was already cold. However, as time went on, the snow became heavier and heavier, eventually turning into a rare heavy snowfall.
The road is covered in a thick layer of snow that makes it difficult to read. Abu and his companions were forced to halt their progress. They tried to find a place to take refuge from the snow, but there was nothing but snowy fields around them, and there was not a trace of human habitation.
Over time, food and fresh water are gradually depleted. People began to feel panic and despair. One by one, the companions fell, more than half of them were killed or wounded. Abu watched his companions die one by one, and his heart was filled with endless grief.
Abu and his remaining companions tried to find a way to the Western Regions, but after repeated attempts to no avail, they had to find a way to return to Luoyang. After many difficulties, they finally found a forgotten cave.
In the cave, they spent more than a month. Despite the scarcity of food, Abu led the group to persevere with his wisdom and courage. They cooked in snow water and warmed themselves with the dry grass in the caves. Eventually, they traversed the barren desert and managed to find their way to the Central Plains. Although he has experienced life and death and thousands of difficulties and dangers, after this incident, Abu's skills have been improved, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, so that he has today's brilliant record of one enemy and four enemies.
You Shao'er, a person who is good at weaving stories, uses her half-truths and half-truths to successfully make Helan Jun think that it is his mission to be loyal to the empress and make enemies of Tiannan Pavilion. His heart was full of loyalty to the empress and resentment towards Tiannan Pavilion, and he no longer even doubted You Shao'er's every word.
Nan Tong and Xuan Rui are closely following Miao Yuelin.
"Brother Nantong, Daoist Xuanrui, why are you in a hurry?"
When they heard someone call them, they couldn't help but stop.
The two looked at it and saw that it was He Lanjun.
Nantong: "Prince Helan, Xue Ning was captured by the people of Wuqizhuang. β
He Lanjun pretended to be surprised and said, "What, there is such a thing? Why did the people of Wuqizhuang arrest Xue Ning, and what was going on? β
Nan Tong was anxious: "Oh, this matter is a long story. We don't know exactly what is going on, and the priority is to save people as soon as possible. β
He Lanjun: "But there are only three of us, and there are so many people in Wuqizhuang, how can we save them?" Why don't we find some helpers, and I happen to have a friend of mine nearby, who has a lot of masters. β
Xuan Rui: "Yes, we can find some martial arts masters to go together, so that we can be sure." β
Nantong: "Then let's go find some helpers now, and then go to Wuqizhuang together to save Xue Ning." β
He Lanjun: "Okay, let's go now." β
So, Nantong and Xuan Rui followed He Lanjun to a valley and saw a large manor. The estate is magnificent.
He Lanjun: "It's time to get to the place, two please." β
As the sun sets, an old manor house looks solemn and mysterious in the twilight. He Lanjun warmly invited Xuan Rui and Nantong into the manor, saying that he wanted to introduce his friends to them. Little did the two know that it would be a deadly hoax.
After entering the manor, He Lanjun lied that he wanted to wash the dust for the two. Then Helan Jun's friends appeared one by one, although these people did not seem to be good, but under Helan Junhe's rhetoric and well-designed disguise. Deceived the two.
When the banquet reached its climax, He Lanjun suddenly stood up and raised his glass to Xuan Rui and Nantong. He smiled and said, "Thank you for coming to my feast, my friends. Then he drank it all. Seeing this, Xuan Rui and Nan Tong also raised their glasses in return.
At this moment, Xuan Rui suddenly felt dizzy, and the wine glass in his hand slipped weakly.
Xuan Rui pointed at He Lanjun: "...... you?" β
Then he said to Nantong: "There is poison in the cup, Nantong go quickly"
Nan Tong was about to take out a double hammer, but he had long since disappeared, so he could only fight back everyone and push Xuan Rui out, "You go quickly, find someone to save me." β
Xuan Rui knew that it would be difficult for him to support himself for too long, so he could only escape by himself.
After Nantong was caught, He Lanjun revealed his true colors. He sneered and said to Nantong: "You are too naΓ―ve. β
Nantong was taken to the basement of the manor and locked in a dark room. They didn't know what He Lanjun's plan was, and they didn't know if they would be able to leave this place alive.
And Helan Jun, who used to be the pride of Tiannan Pavilion, has now become a ghost driven by the desire for revenge. He, You Shao'er, and Xiaoxiangmen's accomplices, planned this ambush against Nantong and Xuan Rui.
But in the end, Xuan Rui escaped, and You Shao'er, the daughter of conceited and scheming, miscalculated again, but she counted everything on He Lanjun's head.
You Shao'er and He Lanjun's strategy can be said to be perfect. They succeeded in trapping Nan Tong and Xuan Rui, and then subdued them in one fell swoop. There was not the slightest hesitation or mistake in the whole operation, but they didn't expect that Nantong would be able to sacrifice himself to help Xuan Rui escape, and they also underestimated Xuan Rui's decisiveness.
This fly in the ointment victory did not bring any joy to You Shao'er and He Lanjun. In particular, Helan Jun's heart was full of emptiness and exhaustion, as if all his strength and courage had been consumed. He knew that this victory was only temporary, and from then on Tiannan Pavilion would become his enemy, and his tragedy was doomed the moment he met You Shao'er and the conspirator Abu.
He Lanjun came to the dungeon with the wine and food, and ordered the others to retreat after putting the wine and food on the table.
Nan Tong sat in a gloomy cell, his hands chained by rough chains, his gaze cold and determined, as if he could penetrate this dark cage. And He Lanjun, the one who had sworn to protect him, was standing in front of him at the moment, with a hypocritical smile.
He Lanjun: "Senior brother, you must be hungry too, I brought wine and food." β
Nan Tong was cold: "Why, the next poison didn't poison me, and I want to do it again." β
He Lanjun: "Listen to me, I have a hard time. β
Nan Tong stared at He Lanjun, and his voice was cold: "No matter how clever your tongue is, you can't change the fact that you are a traitor." β
He Lanjun sighed: "I only learned when I came to Luoyang this time that I have my own biological parents, and the current empress is my aunt. Why should I follow a group of charlatans who recklessly oppose my relatives. β
Nan Tong sneered: "Is this your reason?" My Nan family has been loyal to the court for generations, how can I oppose it? β
He Lanjun: "Brother Nan, you are excellent in martial arts, and you have learned the literary and martial arts and the emperor's family, isn't this the result you want?" Tiannan Pavilion was ostensibly loyal to the imperial court, but they were loyal to the Li Tang Dynasty that had long ceased to exist. β
Nan Tong looked at He Lanjun coldly: "I don't know so much, my ideal in life is to protect the territory and the people, as for who is the emperor, it is up to me." β
He Lanjun's face changed, and then he said: "Stupid, only the emperor can give you everything you want, what you can get and hold is real, and everything else is fake." β
Nan Tong laughed miserably: "Don't speculate for more than half a sentence, can you please?" As he spoke, he put on a posture of sending off guests.
He Lanjun's face turned pale, and he said viciously: "I ......, you are really stubborn, I will send you on your way today." β
He Lanjun suddenly took out a dagger and rushed towards Nantong.
At this moment, a white silk came, and He Lanjun hurriedly dodged.
