Chapter 587: Back Hand (Plus Change)
"Then I was born. It wasn't until I was three years old that my great-grandfather didn't know I existed. He said in a low voice: "At that time, Concubine Liao and the queen fought to the death, and Xiao Mi had two accidents. My great-grandfather was so frightened that he didn't send me to the palace again. ”
For the first twelve years of his life, he did not have a flock of servants, but he lived a peaceful and prosperous life.
Xiao Mi took another sip of wine, waited for the heat in her throat to subside, and could barely swallow it: "If I can, I really don't want to be the king of this country." San Lang, I envy you for coming and going freely and unrestrained. ”
He sat in this position completely by the duck on the shelf, a few months ago he was a carefree country boy, suddenly his family changed, he was chased and killed by King Wei, and there were only two roads in front of him: either become a king or be defeated.
Fate did not give him a third option.
Chitose smiled but didn't say a word.
Looking at the young man's worried face, Yan Saburo raised the wine jug and filled it for the three of them: "I couldn't speak when I was young, and I don't know what my father looks like. My mother does laundry for a living in the pavilion, and her income is meager, and she complains about the price all day long, but she often buys me a sugar cake to eat after receiving her salary. Very sweet. ”
Chitose shook the wine in the glass. This kid is very secretive about the past, how can he take the initiative to mention it this time?
"One day, she was supposed to come back in the evening, but I didn't see her until midnight. I went to look for her at the venue where she often worked, and I found out that she was dead. ”
Xiao Mi said "ah": "What happened?"
That day, she went to the Red Pavilion to collect the girls' laundry, and was taken by two drunken merchants. She refused, and was beaten to death. When I heard that the nursing home was coming, I happened to see her fall from the stairs with her head down. Yan Saburo took a sip of wine, "Afterwards, the two spent money to get through the relationship, saying that my mother fell to her death." I can't sue the case, and no one will pursue this matter anymore. Hongguanfang later gave me a string of copper coins as a condolence. ”
"What happened later?" Xiao Mi swallowed. Although he doesn't have a father, his mother's love is meticulous, his family is rich, and the first twelve years of his life seem to be as smooth as Yan Saburo.
"Those two merchants are from out of town, and they want to leave as soon as possible if they make a fuss. I put rat poison in their meals, and when they were discovered, they zoomed in on the dogs and came after me. According to the people of the Red Pavilion, it was a kind of mastiff that could fight wild boars. ”
Yan Saburo lifted his trouser leg as he spoke, and Xiao Mi saw that there were indeed two deep scars on his calves.
Chitose also raised an eyebrow. The scar on Xiao San'er's leg, she has seen it more than once, it turned out to be bitten by a dog?
"I was chased and bitten, and I thought I was going to die, but in the process of escaping, the dog fell into a deep ditch and couldn't get up. As soon as I saw a play, I threw a stone at it. smashed a few more times, and finally smashed to death. Yan Saburo said lightly, "I had never eaten meat before, and I had never eaten so full, and after that, I also understood that whether it is killing people or doing things, you must have a good plan and be thorough." ”
Xiao Mi was speechless for a long time, and Chitose asked the next sentence on his behalf: "And then?"
"Then I managed to kill the two merchants. At that time, they had already gone to the outskirts of the city, so the officials did not find me. Yan Saburo shrugged his shoulders, "You see, ordinary people don't have a good time. ”
Xiao Mi exhaled a cool breath lightly and said solemnly: "San Lang, thank you." "How can a little turnip head, still a dumb man, kill two adults? He couldn't think of it, and he didn't dare to think about it.
Yan Saburo was about to speak, when there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside, and then someone said loudly:
"Shi Congyi asked to see. ”
This guy also knows that Xiao Mi is about to be crowned, and his attitude towards him can no longer be as casual as before.
Before Xiao Mi could answer, he strode in and hurriedly said, "The prisoner has escaped!"
"What?" Mo said that Xiao Mi's color suddenly changed, and even Chitose stood up suddenly.
"King Wei unleashed a monster, killed the guards and escaped. Shi Congyi is also the general of the unified army, he has a clear sense of priorities and speaks in a clear manner, "Lord Hou has personally chased after him, and I came to protect His Highness." He also saw Yan Saburo, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "It's great that you're here too." ”
This kid is young, but his ability is not small.
Yan Saburo asked, "What kind of monster?" King Wei himself was not a strange warrior and had no cultivation, and Han Zhao was already very strict in guarding him. There were two guards guarding the king, one was strong, and the other was even a stranger.
Where did King Wei release the monster that could easily kill two people?
Shi Congyi also glanced at it in shock, "I didn't see it very clearly, but there was a red light in its three eyes." ”
"Three?"
"Yes. Shi Congyi pointed to his forehead, "There's another one here." ”
Chitose suddenly said: "No wonder King Wei was so confident after he was captured, it turned out that he still had a killer weapon hidden." ”
Shi Congyi was puzzled: "He has this ability, why didn't he use it until now?"
"He has been on the snowy mountains for the past few days, and even if he can escape, he will freeze and starve to death in the wild. Yan Saburo has always been calm, "Back in a crowded place, it is easier for him to hide himself." ”
Sure enough, a person like King Wei who is greedy for life and afraid of death will definitely leave himself a means to save his life at the bottom of the box. It was right that he and Chitose didn't force their heads, otherwise it would have been them who had just faced that monster.
Chitose raised his glass and shook it lightly, and asked Shi Congyi: "The monster you are talking about, is it humanoid, dark red, and barehanded?"
"Yes. Shi Congyi Daqi, "How do you know?"
"It's simple. Chitose took a sip of the wine in her glass, "It's coming here!"
Then, everyone heard exclamations and screams from outside the door, as well as a scolding voice: "What are you doing here, go, leave!"
The sound is from far and near, that is, two breaths of effort, and it is almost to the house.
Even Yan Saburo clenched the sword in his sleeve, but Chitose poured his wine glass unhurriedly, and then raised his glass-
Thrown.
Almost at the same time, something "clanged" through the window and came straight at everyone.
Chitose's wine glass just smashed on this thing's forehead. The drink trickled into the other's eyes, causing a long, stinging howl.
Xiao Mi saw this thing clearly, and subconsciously took two steps back.
No way, this thing looks too scary. It is indeed humanoid, but its body is so red that you can see its muscles and blood vessels directly. To put it simply, it's like a living person who has been skinned and can walk and jump, about eight feet tall, and the part above the neck doesn't look like a human, with protruding fangs.
As Shi Congyi said, it has three eyes, each of which glows red.
King Wei sat on its back and pulled the chain angrily: "Go out, come here to be a ......"
