Chapter 17 Getting out of trouble
The stone powder fell, and the tip of the sword slowly cut through the corner of the prison wall, leaving a narrow and curved mark, like a frowning eyebrow.
Zhi Kajin put away his sword, the twenty-sixth mark he had made in prison. Yuzhenhui failed to rescue him from prison as promised, and he did not complain. Even if it is as strong as a Taoist gate, it cannot act recklessly. This matter is under the jurisdiction of the royal family, and Daomen cannot overstep his authority and act directly, but can only exert indirect pressure.
Zhijia really knew that this was just one of the countless battles between the royal family and the Daomen, and no matter what the end was, neither side would care about the outcome of a single battle, nor would they care about the survival of one of the chess pieces.
Fortunately, since Zhijia Zhenxiao, he has never pinned his hopes on the hands of others, so there is no loss and fluctuation in his mood. On the contrary, because of the dry prison, he secretly coincided with the purpose of the Daomen's quiet and inaction, and his Taishang Heart Mirror Note was quite sophisticated.
On weekdays, in addition to practicing the Void Pole Nail Fetal Soul Forbidden Method, Zhi Hunt Zhen is to participate in the study of the White Bone Sutra of Rebirth, or to practice his own invisible true swordsmanship against the Fuji Sword Box. Whether it is the White Bone Sutra or the Invisible True Sword Technique, they are much more sophisticated than the exercises of the Great Jin, and some of the cultivation techniques are extremely complex and profound, and Zhi Hunt really needs to ponder repeatedly before he can slowly comprehend it.
"Come, let's play a few games of chess and relax. Seeing that Zhi Hunt Zhen had finished pranayama, Meng Meng hurriedly jumped off the beam and dragged him to the chessboard.
Monkey Essence is not going to play Go, but a new gadget called backgammon, which comes from her original world. Every time the monkey spirit has to take the lead, so that Zhijia Zhen has been defeated again and again, and none of them have won.
Zhi Zhenzhen looked at the pile of white chess pieces pushed over, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly: "You keep winning, is it interesting?"
"Boy, don't get too attached to winning or losing. Didn't I tell you? Victory is happy and defeat is happy, and the world comes and goes leisurely. This is true both in chess and in life. Meng Mengda took the lead in picking up a black chess piece, and pressed it on the center of the chessboard with a "bang", a serious and authentic way, "Don't be afraid of losing, this is to temper your indomitable Dao heart." ”
Zhi Hunt really dropped a white chess piece helplessly: "My Dao heart is about to be ground up." ”
"I wish you to break first and then stand up, and from then on, you will achieve great success. Meng Meng grinned, and then the next son. She knew that Zhi Hunt was really deliberately accommodating herself, and under the deep and cruel heart of the young man, there was actually something very soft hidden.
The two of them took dozens of steps in succession, and seeing that the black chess pieces were about to be connected into five lines, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from above the stone staircase.
Meng Mengda turned her head to look, and Wang Yifu and Xie Xuan rushed over under the guidance of the jailer.
"Look, Xie Dazui looks overjoyed, are you going to be acquitted?" said Meng Meng.
Could it be that Yu Zhen will make another move? Zhi Zhen secretly wondered, and continued to put down a chess piece, if Yu Zhen would make a move, he should have informed himself.
The jailer opened the cell door, nodded and smiled: "Congratulations to the little marquis, congratulations to the little marquis, you are safe and sound, you can go back to the house to rest." ”
Wang Yifu stood outside the iron fence with joy and sorrow, he had lost a lot of weight, his face was haggard and blue, and he was glowing with an exaggerated and sickly red light. "The subordinates are late, and they hope that the son of the world will forgive their sins. Wang Yifu choked up several times, shook deeply at Zhi Zhenzhen, and leaned over.
Zhi Zhenzhen hurriedly stepped forward and bowed down to help Wang Yifu. The latter insisted on refusing to get up, and said in a trembling voice: "Yifu is really a useless person, sitting and watching the son of the world in danger, but helpless, it is really shameless to trust the son." ”
Zhi Hunt Zhen forcibly helped him up, and said: "The Yu clan is powerful, and the princes of the temple are still at a loss, not to mention Lord Changshi? ”
"Nonsense! What crime deserves? Not only are you not guilty, but you also have merit!" Ji Kang's clear and angry voice came from afar.
Zhi Hunt Zhen raised his eyes and looked, Ji Kang's wide robe and high clogs, his steps were like meteors, like a whirlwind, and the rest of the five sons of the bamboo forest followed.
"Lord Sacrificial Wine, Lord Xiang, Lord Wang......" Zhi Hunt Zhen saluted one by one, but was dragged by Liu Ling, and said with a smile: "What adults, villains, a few of us are most annoyed by this kind of fake thing! Just call him Lao Ji, just call me Brother Ling, what's the use of politeness?"
Ji Kang looked at Zhi Zhanzhen and sighed, his face was ashamed: "Yuan An, you were entrusted by us to compete with the Little Eagle King of the Yu Clan regardless of your life, and raise the prestige of our human race, but you were imprisoned and almost lost your life, the old man is really ashamed of you!"
Wang Yifu said to Zhi Hunting: "Lord Saijiu and the other five adults have been running for this matter, kneeling at the palace gate for several days, begging Your Majesty to acquit the prince. Young Master Xie Xuan, Young Master Zhou, and many disciples of the Wang family, the Bai family, the Wei family, and many other family members are also petitioning for the prince. ”
Zhi Hunt Zhen thanked everyone repeatedly, and Ji Kang shook his head: "It's not our credit to release the original little brother. ”
"It is rumored that His Majesty compensated the Yu clan with a lot of property, and the other party agreed not to pursue it for the time being. But as far as I know......," Shan Tao explained in a puzzled tone, "it seems that the Yu Clan offered to release you, claiming that they would send their swords to repair their hands in the future, and then find the Xiao An brothers to compete with their swords." He shook his head as he said this. The Yu clan was eager to execute Yuan An immediately, but now they took the initiative to let Yuan An go, which is really against common sense.
Ruan Ji said: "The birdman has always been arrogant and pretentious, so he may hold his breath, and I want to find the little brother to save face in the future." ”
"It's not necessarily the meaning of the Yu Clan, it's mostly the secret power of the Daomen, after all, the little brother has entered the Taishang Shenxiao Sect. Xiang Xiu muttered that the Chongxuan Agency secretly interfered in the street tour, but he couldn't hide it from the discerning person.
Wang Yifu's heart moved slightly, the six sons of the bamboo forest were free and uninhibited by nature, but they would never open their mouths. Now they call Yuan An a little brother, which is quite incredible. Could it be ...... A thought suddenly popped up in his mind, and he couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, if this is the case, the son of the world can be said to be a blessing in disguise, and he soared to the sky!
"Xiao Anzi, it's very good!" Xie Xuan leaned over and said with a smile, "I've been in prison for a few days, and it's still so fine and tender, and it's delicious." ”
Zhi Zhenzhen smiled slightly, and said angrily: "Little Xuanzi, I haven't seen you for a few days, and your stinky mouth hasn't changed at all." ”
"What does the little monkey know? The man eats all directions!" Xie Xuan turned around triumphantly and pursed his lips at the daughters of several families behind him, causing a burst of scolding and coquettish laughter.
Everyone hugged Zhi Hunt Zhen out of the gate of the edict prison, the sun was in full bloom outside, and the summer cicada perched on the tree was singing, and Zhi Hunt Zhen couldn't help but feel a little like a different world.
He saw hundreds of carriages lined up, parked across the street, Yuan Wan standing in front with a crested cane, a clan elder of the Boling Yuan clan obediently following behind, and then a large number of family disciples, standing in the dark.
Zhi Zhenzhen was slightly stunned, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask Yuan Wan for peace. The old lady of Yuan personally took him out of prison, undoubtedly showing the Boling Yuan clan that his identity as the son of the world is beyond doubt.
"Xiao An, thank you for your hard work. Yuan Wan sighed softly, Yuan An was imprisoned, but not many people in the Boling Yuan clan rushed out for it. If it weren't for her entering the palace to face the saint and trying her best to protect the original peace, I am afraid that some clan elders would have the idea of the Yongning Marquis Mansion again.
"Yuan An!" "Brother Yuan!" "Little Marquis!" Wang Hui, Wang Xian, Wang Liangmi brothers and sisters, Zhou Chu, Tao Yujin, Kong Jiuyan and Cangwu Bai and many other high-ranking disciples surrounded and rushed to greet Zhi Zhen.
The sunlight is dazzling, and the smiling faces of youth and vitality seem to exude brilliant light. In such a warm light, even Zhijia Zhen was shining.
These children of the family truly accepted Yuan An.
This made Zhi Hunt really a little happy, and there was an indescribable sadness.
