Chapter 14: Suspicions

Ye Liuyun was wearing a big white spot cloth robe, a white scroll belt tied around his waist, long black hair, and clear eyebrows.

"You're dressed like this to eat?"

Tang Qingshan looked at Ye Liuyun's outfit, his eyes full of weirdness.

"Brother Tang, don't get me wrong. You are my nobleman, if it were not for your righteousness. How could Ye Liuyun get home today. ”

With the voice of the Ye family, the eyes of the pedestrians on the street all gathered. Tang Qingshan didn't want to be misunderstood by others, so he hurriedly pulled Ye Liuyun out of the downtown area. The two came to Yuxiang Building, went up to the fourth floor and sat by the window, and the two sat down separately. Not long after, the shopkeeper sent the meal ordered by Ye Liuyun and a stall of flower carvings.

"Come on, come on, Brother Tang. I'll fill it up for you. ”

Ye Liuyun stood up and was about to pour wine for Tang Qingshan. Tang Qingshan gently blocked the mouth of the cup with his hand.

"Brother Ye, I don't know how to drink. ”

Seeing that Tang Qingshan didn't look like a fake, Ye Liuyun said.

"Eh, Brother Tang, we are all good sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, how can we go to the rivers and lakes without drinking!

Seeing that Ye Liuyun insisted on this, Tang Qingshan had to move his hand away.

"Come, Brother Tang. Let's do this first. It's a blessing to know you!"

After speaking, Ye Liuyun raised his glass and dried. Tang Qingshan had no choice but to drink the contents of the cup. This glass of wine, down the throat into the throat, is so hot and uncomfortable that it flows into the stomach after a while. Tang Qingshan shook his head, how did such a unpalatable thing be sold? Looking at Tang Qingshan's slightly painful expression, Ye Liuyun was sure that this was really the first time he had drunk alcohol, and he filled it with another glass at the moment.

"Brother, we have drunk this cup full, I will pour you another cup, if you want to drink, you can drink, if you don't want to drink, you will never be embarrassed for my brother. ”

Hearing Ye Liuyun say this, Tang Qingshan's face was a little better. The two were eating vegetables, and Ye Liuyun introduced Tiefu City to him.

"Brother, don't you know, this Iron Floating City is a supply transit for the northern battlefield. You also saw it when you entered the city, and that posture is not found in every city, but the people of this city have suffered from years of fighting. It's not because Wantonglou still has some effect on the imperial court, I guess you can't see my brother and me now. ”

Tang Qingshan listened to him talk in detail about the situation in Tiefu City and the front line over the years. It turned out that in the bitter cold land outside the Saibei, the homeless people were hungry and cold, and they were digging in the soil everywhere to eat, just to live one day longer than others! As early as 30 years ago, it is said that the homeless people at that time ate no grass on the plains. Desperate, they had no choice but to go to the 100,000 mountains in the bitter cold land. It seems that God has taken pity on them, and they have really fought for a chance in the mountains! However, things soon changed, and some of the displaced people fled from the mountains in a hurry, and they rushed back to Wuding Fort, saying that there were man-eating demons in the mountains, and they were attacking this way from the mountains. The defending general simply did not believe their nonsense and ordered the archers. Anyone who dares to approach Wuding Fort one hundred and fifty steps will surely pierce the heart with ten thousand arrows!

The displaced people fled back just to survive. Seeing the murderous aura on the city wall, and the cold arrows pointed at them, they all retreated in desperation. Within a few days, the monsters were killed in front of them, and the homeless people were cornered, and once again appeared in front of Wuding Castle. Seeing the endless black oppression, the officers and soldiers defending the city showed panic. The enraged general ordered the arrows to be released on the grounds that the outcasts had attracted monsters.

It was a brutal massacre, and four or five hundred thousand outcasts quickly fell under the onslaught of monsters and archers. After the massacre, on the west side of the Makino Plains, black blood flowed into a river. The smell of corpses wafted wantonly across the plains, and the monsters devoured the corpses with the help of the cover of the black mist.

The brief peace did not make the general let his guard down. The 1,800-li expedited military report was quickly sent back to Qiuchuan, the capital of the Luohuan Dynasty. It was already difficult for the new emperor to succeed to the throne, and when he saw the military newspaper, he thought it was a godsend. Immediately make a decision, and the emperor drove the expedition in person! 500,000 troops cooperated with more than 600 peak masters of the Dragon Realm, plus the emperor master! He Li of the Burning Body Realm. The team headed towards Wuding Castle!

When the scouts came to report at the pass, there was a river of blood flowing outside Wuding Fort, and the casualties were immeasurable! The emperor was furious and insisted on reaching Wuding Fort despite the dissuasion of everyone. When the army arrived, they found that there was still any Wuding Fort! The dilapidated city wall was less than one-third of the original one, and none of the 200,000 defenders of Wuding Fort survived. Although not a single body could be found, the blood on the ground that had not yet dried up proved that things had exceeded expectations!

The emperor's commander He Li made a decision immediately, and the rear team of the army became the front team! Quickly retreated! Unfortunately, it was still too late, and it did not go out of 15 miles. The army was surrounded by monsters. An army of 500,000 people, hundreds of masters, issued a mad charge on the orders of the emperor. With limited supplies, the army fought and retreated. In the end, he retreated to Pinglan County, which is now the front line of Pinglan Fort. Emperor He Li risked his life and fled back to the royal capital Qiuchuan with the emperor. From then on, the Luohuan Dynasty recruited troops and horses, and sent supplies and soldiers to the front line in a steady stream! However, the enemy was too strong, even if it was constantly delivering supplies. It's just a drop in the bucket for the front. In the end, the royal family came forward and invited out the ancient five clans! The strength of the five clans was really extraordinary, and the situation was stabilized as soon as they came out. After that, the battle lasted for thirty years. Now, the whole world is still catching strong men, and they are constantly being sent to the battlefield. However, the dynasty did not regain the lost territory.

By the end of the story, Ye Liuyun was already drunk like a puddle of mud. Cowering on the ground alone and dozing off. Tang Qingshan's face sank like water, and he gave himself a glass of wine and drank it all. It seemed that it was not enough, so he picked up the wine jar and drank it in a big gulp. According to Ye Liuyun, the chances of his father surviving are too slim. We must deal with this matter as soon as possible, and then go to Pinglan Fort to inquire about my father's whereabouts!

After making up his mind, Tang Qingshan took another big sip of wine, picked up Ye Liuyun and walked in the direction of the Ye family's ancestral house. Just after the hour, there were no pedestrians on the streets. Tang Qingshan walked on the road with Ye Liuyun on his back. Suddenly, Tang Qingshan's feet exerted force, and the two of them disappeared directly from the same place. Ye Liuyun slept soundly, without making a sound, and breathed evenly. The two of them hid in an empty tank at the mouth of the alley. Just now, Tang Qingshan obviously sensed that someone, or something else, was observing the two of them. The situation is urgent, and the other party obviously has bad intentions. Tang Qingshan used the storm to get rid of the enemy.

Quietly waiting, time passing minute by minute. In this case, Tang Qingshan made up his mind. As long as the enemy doesn't show up, keep waiting. What was watching him? The streets were still empty, and there was a dead silence all around.

After waiting for the time of the three incense sticks, just when Tang Qingshan was also sure that there was no danger. Out of the shadows came a little boy of eight or nine years old. Tang Qingshan held his breath and looked at it. The little boy's eyes were glazed, and he walked towards this side step by step. This is too weird, now the city is already sparsely populated, and there is not even a light on this street. With the faint moonlight, Tang Qingshan watched the child slowly walk in front of him. I stood at the intersection for about a stick of incense, and then slowly disappeared into the darkness.

Ye Liuyun didn't know when he had come to his senses. found himself and Tang Qingshan huddled in a jar, although curious, but did not make a sound. Tang Qingshan's eyes motioned to Ye Liuyun not to speak. Gently grab the straw mat on the rim of the cylinder and cover the mouth of the cylinder.

Gradually, the sun rose. In fact, when the sky was white, the feeling in Tang Qingshan's heart that made people choke his throat had disappeared. However, my instinct told me not to go out. It's too dangerous! Although, with his current cultivation, under normal circumstances, there would be no danger that could threaten him. But the enemy is in the dark, and he is in the light. What's more, Ye Liuyun, the oil bottle, still follows him. With all kinds of considerations, Tang Qingshan decided that it was safest to go out after dawn.

Ye Liuyun didn't know when he fell asleep again. Tang Qingshan smiled bitterly and shook him awake.

"Brother Ye, don't sleep, it's dawn, let's go back. ”

Ye Liuyun opened his sleepy eyes and discerned the direction.

"What's going on? I thought I was dreaming last night. I dreamed that the two of us were hiding in a big water tank, and someone was going to kill us! Is this dream already manifesting?"

Tang Qingshan didn't know whether he should admire Ye Liuyun's big heart, or should he admire Ye Liuyun's big heart. was able to fall asleep again in such a life-and-death situation.

"Brother Ye, what kind of enemies do you have in Tiefu City?"

Hearing Tang Qingshan ask, the smile on his face also retracted.

"If it's a dispute of interests, the number one rival must be Sumeru. ”

Ye Liuyun thought calmly for a moment and replied affirmatively.

"Then the people of Sumeru Fang, will they attack your Wantong Lou because of their interests? Besides, is there anyone else who wants to be unfavorable to your Wantong Building?

Ye Liuyun finally knew the seriousness of the problem! Someone actually wanted his life!

"Although there is often friction between us and Sumeru Fang in terms of interests, it has not risen to the point where we need to fight for our lives! Moreover, everyone is in business, and businessmen pay attention to harmony and make money! Now in the situation of Tiefu City, everyone is even more vigilant and help each other. How could anyone want to kill me. ”

Listening to Ye Liuyun's analysis, Tang Qingshan sorted out his thoughts.

"Well, let's go out first. It's not an option to stay here!. ”

When Ye Liuyun and Tang Qingshan returned to the Ye family's ancestral house, Mr. Ye was already having breakfast. Seeing that his son did not return overnight, the old man's face was not very good, and it was not easy to have a seizure because of the presence of guests. Tang Qingshan visited his uncle and had breakfast with Ye Liuyun. Ye Lao was just about to go out, but Tang Qingshan called out to stop the old man.

Ye Lao was still wondering, why was this young man who came to visit for the first time so rude? Even if he didn't return home with his son at night, he dared to have breakfast with him in a bright and bright way. However, after hearing Tang Qingshan's account of his experience with Ye Liuyun last night, the old man was shocked and angry.

"What a bold man! Bullying people has bullied me Ye someone's only son!"

Ye Lao just wanted to get angry, but the next moment he was stopped by Tang Qingshan. Before Tang Qingshan could explain the reason. I only heard people outside the door running into the yard in a panic.

"Oh no! Master! Oh no! The shopkeeper of Sumeru Fang, Pan Danian died at the gate of his house last night!"
