"There's one more thing he wants to know, but you don't want to tell him, and that's the secret of mystical fingering. Hua Sanniang said: "In that case, why didn't he ask you directly, but asked me instead." Wei Tunan said: "Because he knows that no matter what method he uses, it will be difficult to extract the secret of Xuanyin fingering from my mouth." And junior sister, you are not strong-minded and easy to be controlled. And I promised to tell you the secret of Xuanyin fingering, so the Nine Poisons Old Monster thought about starting with you. ”

Hua Sanniang sighed: "This old immortal is really ruthless, and he was like a fish with the old lady last night, and I can't see that he has such a mind!" Yao Yuan Tai said: "Since the Nine Poison Old Monster already knows your plan to escape, he has now left this dark cloud castle, I am afraid that this rumor has reached the ears of Na Yelu Shilu." ”

Han Bushou said: "Yes, I'm afraid that the strategy of escaping will not work." Yue Sheng sighed: "Then it is estimated that even Mrs. Xiao knows that we are lying to her, but this is already the second day, why hasn't she come back to her own child?" Besides, if she dares not to come, there should be a second reason. ”

Yue Sheng sighed and asked, "What is the reason?" Yao Yuantai pointed at Liu Yu and said, "It's me, the apprentice, I don't know why, this Mrs. Xiao doesn't seem to be trusted by anyone, but she can trust him." She must be thinking that with my apprentice, her Abaoji will be safe. Liu Yu said: "Of course we won't harm a child, but Sister Xiao, she deceived us like this, it is also extremely hateful, I must ask her for clarification." ”

Hua Sanniang smiled: "What can you ask her, you little ghost, she is like a fox with nine lives, she is so cunning that she can deceive you with a casual word." Liu Yu said: "Then I have to ask too!" Xue Hongmei interjected: "Since it is difficult for us to escape now, it is better to stay in this dark cloud castle and see how Mrs. Xiao reacts." ”

Hua Sanniang said: "Hmph, if that little slut dares to come, I have to ask her to taste my three insects and three corpse pills." I tricked her into giving it a few times, but she always refused. Then he said to Liu Yu: "Little ghost, this time you help me break her mouth open, and I will force her in." ”

Liu Yu said: "I won't do this kind of thing!" Wei Tunan said: "Forget it, senior sister." If you dare to use force on her, the Khitan army guarding around here will rush up, and you and I will be dead at that time. Hua Sanniang stopped making a noise after hearing this, she turned her face and found that Xue Hongmei was looking at her resentfully, so she hurriedly looked away.

While everyone was talking, a Khitan language sounded outside Wuyun Castle, and Wei Tunan said: "Mrs. Xiao is here, she asked us to send Abaoji down." Hua Sanniang said: "She has the ability to come in by herself, let us send her out, but it is impossible." Saying that he was going to snatch Abaoji from Wei Tunan's hands, he was snatched by Liu Yu first, and said, "I'll send it down!"

Although Wei Tunan was unwilling to let Hua Sanniang harm Abaoji, he was also very reluctant to lose an important bargaining chip. He shouted: "Liu Yu, come back quickly!" Liu Yu didn't look back, Hua Sanniang followed Liu Yu to chase out. Yao Yuan Tai praised: "That's right, it's not a man to blackmail others with a child." ”

Wei Tunan sighed: "Third Prince, it is because you are so chivalrous and have not been far away to study the strategy that you were secretly calculated by Madam Xiao to the current situation. Although we don't want to harm others, we must be able to protect ourselves after all. Han Bushou listened to the words of the two, smiled slightly, walked to the window, and looked down from the gap between Lu Shengyan and Gongsun Mao, only to see Mrs. Xiao leading the horse, standing under the Dark Cloud Castle, and only brought a few people over, including the little dwarf Yue Wuwu who was good at setting traps.

Liu Yushi unfolded the Qiankun Lost Footwork, threw Hua Sanniang far away, and left the castle to hand over Abaoji to Mrs. Xiao. Mrs. Xiao didn't expect that she would get her son again so smoothly, and she couldn't help but be stunned. Liu Yu said: "Sister Xiao, I have always been sincere to you, why do you want to lie to me again and again?" Mrs. Xiao pondered for a moment and replied: "I really don't want to lie to you, I never want to lie to you." I told you, don't be too nice to others, because they won't treat you with the same kindness. ”

Liu Yu said: "Okay, Sister Xiao, I understand. He turned around to go back to the castle, and he didn't look back, but he collided with the oncoming Hua Sanniang. Hua Sanniang screamed out in pain, she pushed Liu Yu away, stood firm and said, "Mrs. Xiao, this kid has taken my Three Worms and Three Corpse Pills, you better think about how to cooperate with us." ”

After hearing this, Mrs. Xiao turned her head to Liu Yu and asked, "Brother Yu, what Mrs. Wang said is the truth?" Liu Yu said: "Abaoji didn't take the Three Insects and Three Corpse Pills, do you believe me?" Hua Sanniang pointed at Liu Yu and said, "You ......" so angry that she couldn't speak. Mrs. Xiao said, "I believe in you, Brother Xiao. Then I'm leaving, please take care!"

Liu Yu said: "You also take care!" Mrs. Xiao hugged Abaoji and did not get on the horse, but said: "Can you send me?" Liu Yu said: "Okay!" Hua Sanniang wanted to catch up, but the little dwarf Yue Wulin stopped her. Hua Sanniang said angrily: "You have eaten my three insects and three corpse pills, do you still want to live!"

Hua Sanniang understood his thoughts, as long as he couldn't leave this place, he would one day give in to him and hand over the antidote. Thinking of this, she sighed and watched Mrs. Xiao lead the horse and walk away slowly with Liu Yu.

Liu Yu sent Mrs. Xiao to a mile road, and Mrs. Xiao did not speak along the way. Liu Yu saw that there was already a tent for the Khitan siege army in front of him, so he stopped, and Mrs. Xiao motioned for him to go further, but Liu Yu did not move. Mrs. Xiao asked, "Brother Xiao, why don't you want to go?"

Liu Yu said: "Sister Xiao, do you want to let me go?" Mrs. Xiao smiled: "Since you have understood what I mean, why don't you hurry up?" Liu Yu said: "Sister Xiao, I can't go alone, the people who stay in the fort are all my friends, and I can't leave them alone." ”

Mrs. Xiao said: "Hey, didn't you say that they were your masters yesterday, why did they become friends today." Liu Yu blushed when he heard this, and said, "They are not only my friends, but also my masters!" Mrs. Xiao sighed and said, "Do you know how dangerous it is for you to stay here. Under the siege of these soldiers, not a single cow or sheep can enter the vicinity of Wuyun Castle, and in another ten days, you will be starved to death if you have no food. ”

Liu Yu said: "So the Nine Poisons Old Monster ran away early, and he didn't want to die with us, right?" Mrs. Xiao said: "He is not afraid, he has such a high martial arts, who can trap him." I had just met him when I came, but now he has changed his mind and wants you to participate in Princess Liuge's martial arts competition, saying that he wants to see how your stasis book skills are. ”

Liu Yu said: "But Sister Xiao, you don't want me to participate in that conference, do you?" Mrs. Xiao said: "Yes, frankly speaking, on the one hand, I don't want you to die." On the other hand, even if I let everyone go, I can't let go of Haruka-tae. As the third prince of the Yao Yin clan, his prestige among the clansmen is not the same as the current Khan. If he turns over this time, I'm afraid that Abaoji and I will die without a place to be buried. ”

Liu Yu said: "I'll go back and persuade him not to go against you." Mrs. Xiao sighed: "What do you know as a child, this struggle for power and profit between adults is a matter of life and death for you." Whoever takes a step back will die, how can he let me. You listen to your sister, don't have the idea of participating in the Princess Liu Ge martial arts competition. Any opponent of the Nine Poisons Old Monster will give you two moves, and it will be enough for you to eat a pot. And ......"

Liu Yu interrupted her and said, "And Sister Xiao, you won't let me win, will you?" Mrs. Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, I will help you if I can help you." But I definitely can't let go of Yao Yuantai. Liu Yu said: "Sister Xiao, let's make a bet." ”

Mrs. Xiao was a little surprised when she heard this, and asked, "What kind of gambling contract?" Liu Yu said: "I bet with you, no matter whether I lose or win at next year's martial arts competition, I will not hold a grudge against you." If I win, I will definitely not let the third prince take revenge on you. If I lose, I deserve it. Besides, my participation in the martial arts competition is still good for you. ”

Mrs. Xiao asked, "What's the benefit?" Liu said, "Although I am young, my father often scolds me for not studying. But I have read Tai Shi Gong's "Historical Records" and know the truth that 'all the birds are flying, and the good bow is hidden'. Han Xin helped Han Gaozu win the world, but was finally killed by Han Gaozu. Sister Xiao, if you kill the third prince now, Yelu Shilu will have no scruples, he can do whatever you want. ”

Mrs. Xiao looked at Liu Yu's eyes with some surprise, and said, "I didn't expect you to be able to think of this meaning at such a young age. Liu Yu said: "My brain was originally very stupid, and I thought about this sentence for a long time before I came up with it, sister, don't laugh at me." Mrs. Xiao said: "Sister doesn't laugh at you, brother, you go back and tell your eight masters, including Yao Yuantai, I and the nine poisonous old monsters have also changed their minds." ”

Liu Yu's eyes widened and asked, "What's your idea?" Mrs. Xiao said, "From tomorrow, I will send a batch of cattle and sheep every 30 days for you to slaughter and eat." And I will command the Vulture to stay away from you, and not to disturb you. Liu Yu said: "You mean, you support me to participate in Princess Liuge's martial arts competition?"

Mrs. Xiao said, "I don't support you to participate in that conference, but I support you to continue to stay in this dark cloud castle." One year is not a short time, but it is just right. After saying that, she turned over and was about to leave, but Liu Yu stopped her and said, "Sister Xiao, you have to be careful!" Mrs. Xiao turned around and smiled: "You too!" She waved her hand and whipped, and the horse rushed forward.

Liu Yu watched her holding Abaoji, riding alone, and disappeared to the end of the grassland. At this moment, a west wind blew, and he shivered with cold.
