Thousands of miles away, Chang'an.

The wind and snow came just right, and the whole city was covered in silver, which was extremely enchanting.

A group of women dressed in purple walked into Dali Temple.

Originally, there were rules in each dynasty that women were not allowed to enter the government, be an official, or be a regent. But these women are not affected by these red tape in the slightest.

Dali Temple Siqing is a mediocre official, and he recognizes this line of purple-clothed women as the retinue of nobles in the imperial city.

Moreover, they were still holding the white jade wrench that the Holy Emperor had liked the most.

After a while, a group of people escorted a middle-aged Confucian scholar and walked out.

He looked up at the prisoner cart in the distance, smiled slightly and said: "If the Holy Emperor has not convicted me, then I am not a prisoner, if I am convicted, then the second prince will have no need to try me, since I am not a prisoner, what do you mean by this prisoner cart?"

The woman in purple who took the lead said coldly: "If you want to go up, what nonsense!"

The middle-aged Confucian laughed loudly: "You little maidservants dare to speak to me like this, when you fought the world side by side, when I risked my life to transport food for the army, you little girls were still wearing open crotch pants!"

"Even if I'm really guilty, what's the matter, I, Chen Pinggong, am in the community, and the benefit is in the individual, if I Chen Ping dies, I don't know how many old ministers' hearts will be chilled in this Chang'an City. Without these pillars, will you two princes be able to sit firmly in the world!"

A group of women in purple were roared by his momentum and completely withered.

Chen Ping said disdainfully: "Even if you give your master ten dares, you don't dare to do anything to me, your master is small and can't make a big deal." Didn't you call me all the way from Chang'an to Tongzhou just to threaten those people who were related to me?

The woman in purple did not speak, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance, and a richly decorated carriage slowly approached.

Chen Ping was dressed in coarse cloth clothes, straightened his waist, and stepped into the carriage.

A carriage drove out of Chang'an at night.

In Chang'an, the night is getting thicker, and the wind and snow are getting thicker.

......

When the light and shadow disappeared, there was a sudden loud bang, and the red stones that had piled up into mountains instantly turned into powder.

The diamond-shaped stone made a crisp sound and fell to the ground with a "ding-dong" sound.

Looking at the diamond-shaped stone in Xu Changan's hand, Wang Zihan mustered up his courage, bit his lip, walked up, and said to Xu Changan.

"Can you give me this stone?" Xu Changan looked at her in surprise, her eyes were a little evasive, for fear that Xu Changan would ask her why.

Xu Changan put the diamond-shaped stone in her arms, did not speak, and looked at the eight big characters at the entrance of the next cave.

"Take my inheritance, inherit my legacy!"

Xu Changan took the lead and walked into the long corridor, Su Qing's face did not change, and he immediately followed.

Xiao Tong looked at Wang Zihan, who was still in joy, and looked at Fan Busheng, who looked at him, thought about it, and followed Su Qing's steps and ran into the darkness.

Fan Bufu opened his mouth, but finally didn't say anything and sighed.

"Let's go, aren't you afraid that your future little apprentice will get someone else's inheritance?" A voice came from Fan Bushu's ear, which was full of joy.

"Hey!" Fan Bushu's heart was uneasy, and he let out a long sigh again, looked at Wang Zihan's figure that disappeared into the darkness, thought about it, and followed.

The corridor is very long, and those red stones are scattered in the corridor, exuding a strange red light.

They held the weapons in their hands tightly, and did not use them to illuminate, because no one knew if there was any danger in them, and they needed to save some strength to face the unknown.

Slowly, their feet became wet, and from time to time there were droplets of water dripping from the top of their heads. The sound of water running through my ears was also heard.

Finally, they saw the light ahead.

The light in this stone cave is no longer a strange red, the whole cave is full of cyan soft light, a pool in the center of the cave is flowing with cyan water, a black trident with blue light rises above the lake, and a pillar of light separates Xu Changan and others.

On the other side of the cave, there is a coffin, which just blocks the entrance of the cave.

Xu Changan looked at the trident, then looked at the fiery red sword in his hand, and moved his gaze to Su Qing.

Su Qing shook the knife in his hand, and Wang Zihan also looked at the whip in his hand and did not speak.

Fan Busu suddenly became nervous, his palms were slightly sweaty, and his hands kept rubbing. Because at this moment, the three of them looked at the weapon in their hands, then at the trident glowing with blue light, and finally looked at Xiao Tong.

The boy swallowed, looking at the trident that was a head taller than himself, a little nervous and a little excited.

"Is there no other way?" Fan Bufu said in a low voice.

He really didn't want Xiao Tong to accept the so-called inheritance, and suddenly a person appeared and grabbed a disciple with him, and that person was still a dead person, and Fan Busheng's heart was even more uncomfortable.

"You see if you can break this light curtain, otherwise if you want to move forward, you must be tested, and only after passing the test can we accept the inheritance, and we can continue to go down. ”

Fan Busheng was a little unwilling.

"Does that have to be him?"

Su Qing glanced at the cave and said lightly, "If you are willing to use the trident, it can also be you." Fan Busu shut his mouth.

The little boy tilted his head and stared at the trident, and the more he looked at it, the more happy he became, and his heart seemed to have a connection with the trident.

Xu Changan squatted down and held Xiao Tong's shoulders.

"Do you like it?" Xiao Tong nodded seriously, if he had this trident in the first place, his father would not have been captured by those people.

"Want to do it?" the boy nodded vigorously.

Xu Changan looked at Xiao Tong, and a trace of guilt appeared in his eyes, he really owed too much to Chai Xintong and Xiao Tong.

Thinking of Chai Xintong, I don't know how that guy is, it should be fine, right?

"It's up to you whether you can get it or not, and if there is an accident later, we will try our best to save you. ”

Xiao Tong nodded earnestly.

He rolled up his trouser legs, his face solemn and resolute.

Before he was about to take a step, he grabbed him with both hands: "Let me try." Fan Busu finally stood up, holding a short sword, and looked at the light curtain with cold eyes.

"Break!" he shouted, and a burst of sword qi shot out and hit the light curtain.

The sword qi became weaker and weaker, Fan Busu put away his sword as if he was dozens of years old, and looked at this light curtain with blank eyes, Wang Zihan immediately supported the sluggish old man.

Xu Changan nodded, and the little boy walked towards the trident step by step.

At the same time, Xu Changan walked in front of Fan Busu and said softly: "The old-timers don't mind, even if the little boy gets the inheritance of this Zhao Tianhao's predecessor, he can also inherit your mantle!"

Fan Buxuan's face looked a little better, but he remembered the rules of his sect and was upset.

Suddenly, he glanced towards the passage from which they had come.

After thinking about it, he closed his eyes and did not speak.

When the boy stepped into the pool, a strange scene happened, a cyan light shot out from the trident, enveloping the child, the child had never encountered such a miraculous thing, his eyes widened, and he watched as he slowly approached the trident.

The little boy could feel the kindness of the trident to him, he turned around, waved his hand at Xu Changan and the others on the shore, indicating safety, turned around, his face suddenly became solemn, and he grasped the trident that was half a head higher than him!

After a period of dizziness, the little boy looked at the surroundings and remembered how he had suddenly arrived here with the trident in his hand.

It was a murky river, the grass and mud on its edge had apparently just been ravaged, and the water was still blood-red.

He looked up against the current, only to see patches of blood on the bank of the river not far away, he was shocked, he forgot everything, and slowly approached upstream.

Walking along the bloodstains, I saw a man lying in the grass.

The familiar white clothes were stained with blood, and the familiar fan was thrown aside.

The little gentleman was lying on the ground holding his bloody legs, and the little boy was shocked and hurriedly hugged Chai Xintong.

"Little boy, why are you here?" said the little gentleman, very weak, and with a hint of doubt.

Xiao Tong didn't speak, tore off his clothes and immediately bandaged Chai Xintong.

At this time, the sun is just right, the shore is quiet, and from time to time the wind blows across the riverbank.

Chai Xintong's ears moved slightly, and he pushed the child away at once.

"Hurry up, you go quickly!" Chai Xintong shouted like crazy, his crippled leg kept tumbling, and he tried his best to climb to the shore.

The river rattled, and a huge head poked out of the river.

It opened its bloody mouth, the viscous liquid in its mouth clinging to its sharp teeth, and its claws slashed forward, rushing out of the river.

The child picked up Chai Xintong with great effort and stepped back with great difficulty.

The crocodiles couldn't get too far out of the water, and eventually had to return to the river in a huff.

The boy wiped the sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

Chai Xintong suddenly became nervous, and grabbed the child's sleeve tightly.

A group of jackals smelled blood and slowly gathered around.

Surrounded on all sides, they had nowhere to escape.

Xiao Tong hurriedly hid Chai Xintong in the deep grass and took out the knife that he didn't know when he put it in his arms.

Chai Xintong suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, and he stared at Xiao Tong tightly.

The boy didn't speak, but tears flowed out of his eyes.

"Little sir, thank you, Xiao Tong, you rescued Xiao Tong regardless of life and death, taught Xiao Tong to read, and gave Xiao Tong delicious rock sugar gourds, in this treacherous world, tightly protected Xiao Tong. ”

"The happiest time of my life is probably the time with Mr. Xiao, and I miss the books in the bamboo building. ”

Xiao Tong's voice was very soft, and he said lightly.

"May the little gentleman be safe and happy in the future. ”

Chai Xintong wanted to catch Xiao Tong, but Xiao Tong took half a step back.

"What are you going to do?"

The little boy shook his head and muttered, "May the little gentleman be safe and happy in the future." ”

As he spoke, he jumped out and slashed his arm, and blood flowed into him.

He waved his arms, and the blood spilled out, and the jackals asked about the fresh smell of blood, and immediately turned their heads and chased after the little boy.

I don't know how far I ran, but the wolves slowly surrounded the child, and with each step closer, the child was one step closer to death.

If he had a choice, he wouldn't want to die in the mouths of these dusty, ugly, stinky things.

The jackal bared its fangs.

"Little sir, you want peace and joy!" the boy closed his eyes.
