Volume 1 In the World 026 - Black Twilight

Zhu Lan waited outside for a long time, but he didn't see his sister come out, so he turned around and wanted to leave, he thought it was better to go to the city gate first to see how the situation was on the eldest brother's side. But it happened that at this time, the door of the study opened, and a doorman came out and asked, "Second son, the master told you to come in." ”

Zhu Lan walked in, but only saw Zhu Ning sitting alone on the rattan chair, but he didn't see his sister's figure, he couldn't help but be a little strange, he obviously saw Zhu Keke break in, how could he disappear without a trace?

"Father, where's Coco?" Zhu Lan asked.

"I'll talk about Coco's affairs later, I ask you, let you lead the forbidden army to support outside the city, how dare you ask them to disband?"

Zhu Lan knelt down with a "plop" and kowtowed several times, but did not say anything to explain.

Zhu Ning sneered: "I know what you're thinking, do you think that we will lose this battle?"

Zhu Lan still didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

"Do you know what your sister is doing now?" Zhu Ning suddenly asked.

Zhu Lan shook his head: "Where is Coco?"

"Your sister has now arrived outside the palace gate, taking the king's edict to gather the commanders of the major forbidden armies, and ordering them to organize all the forbidden armies and go out of the city to support!" Zhu Ning's eyes flashed with anger that hated iron and steel, "She is doing what you haven't done for you!"

Zhu Lan raised his head in shock.

"Are you strange, your sister obviously entered my study and never went out, why did she get outside the palace gate?"

Zhu Ning sighed and shook his head: "Although Coco is short-tempered, she is smarter and more careful than you two brothers. It's a pity that she is a daughter, and I haven't taken much care of her before, otherwise, I would have rather train her to be her successor!"

Zhu Ning stood up, walked to the desk, and gently knocked on the wall behind the desk, only to hear a slight "rumble" sound, the wall moved slowly, and a secret door was revealed.

"You and your eldest brother have come to my study dozens of times, and you have never noticed that there is a mechanism here. ”

Zhu Lan lowered his head in shame.

"If we really lose, this is your way of escape! Since the incident, I originally wanted to tell you about this incident, but I also hoped that you would find it out by your own ability, but I didn't expect that it was Coco, who sneaked home, to discover this secret first......"

Zhu Ning knocked on the mechanism on the secret door again, and the wall gradually closed, and there was no special trace at all.

"Even so, she didn't think about running away, after I told her that the current situation was not good for us, she also took the initiative to ask Ying to go outside the palace to mobilize the forbidden army, and you, I personally gave you the task can't be done!"

Zhu Lan suddenly raised his head and looked at his father, and plucked up the courage to say: "Keke didn't come back this time to help you do things, she came to ask your father for the truth." ”

"What did you say?" Zhu Ning was a little puzzled.

"She's here to ask for the truth, Father. Zhu Lan repeated.

"What truth does she want?"

Zhu Lan stood up, stared at Zhu Ning's eyes, and said, "The real cause of this turmoil! Who is murdering the first king?"

He rarely spoke to his father like this, and all along, in front of his strict and harsh father, he had always been obedient and submissive, but this time, I don't know where the courage came from, he suddenly felt that he had the confidence to question his father.

"Did you tell her?"

Zhu Ning nodded slightly.

"What did you tell her?"

"Tell the world how you tell her. ”

"Do you want to deceive your own daughter with lies?" Zhu Lan seemed to feel that his voice was firmer and more imposing than before.

Zhu Ning's face was a little gloomy, "What are you talking about?"

"You killed the first king and the crown prince, and you also forced the queen to die, not only that, but you also framed the blame for the third prince Gao Fei. Father, my eldest brother and I have never asked you, but I know in my heart that you have done all this! I don't know how many secrets you still have to hide from us, and I don't want to know how many secret passages there are in the entire Guogong Mansion, and how many secret secrets you have in the entire Diyun City, why do I need to know this? Why do I know this!"

The more Zhu Lan spoke, the more excited he became, his face turned red, his eyes widened, and he continued: "Knowing this, it will only make me feel how terrible your father is, and make me feel scared of the world, I beg your father, you let Coco go, she is still young, do you want to turn her into a person like you?"

Zhu Ning's face became more and more ugly, but he didn't say a word, and after a long time, his eyes suddenly dimmed, and the whole person looked extremely tired, he waved his hand: "You go out." ”

Zhu Lan hesitated for a moment, turned around and walked out.

"Wait a minute. Zhu Ning stopped him again: "You let Coco go back to his room to rest." I promise you that I will not let her touch these things again, but on the condition that you two brothers must shoulder this responsibility, which is a responsibility that concerns the lives of my whole family!

Zhu Lan didn't look back, he was silent for a while, and then replied, "I promise." ”

"Good. Zhu Ning returned to his usual look, "The affairs of the forbidden army are still up to you, no matter what, just these three days, you must persevere, at all costs, no matter what, the Zhennan army will not be allowed to step into the city!"

Zhu Lan's chest rose and fell violently, and it took a long time to calm down, and he also returned to his usual appearance, and replied calmly, "Yes, father." ”

It was getting dark quickly, and it seemed like a storm was coming. At dusk, Gao Fei finally arrived at the gate of Lingqiu City.

But he saw a strange scene.

Outside the city gate, a gorgeous carriage decorated in red and jade is particularly eye-catching, the body is inlaid with dazzling gold and white jade, and even the two horses pulling the carriage wear expensive headdresses on their heads.

Equally striking were the neat and solemn cavalrymen dressed in silver armor who surrounded the carriage.

Goofy noticed a young man riding a cyan dragon horse on the flanks of the cavalry, this young man was fierce and heroic, holding a red tasseled spear, carrying a snow-white longbow and a deerskin quiver, strangely enough, only one arrow feather seemed to be exposed in the quiver.

Goofy glanced at it, then withdrew his gaze and rode towards the city gates.

Gao Fei has vaguely guessed the origin of this group of people, the snow-white longbow should be the world-famous snow sculpture divine bow, as well as the divine horse dragon horse that travels thousands of miles a day, the entire southern Xinjiang, is also a treasure that only the Qingqiu Guoying family has, not to mention the gold, silver and jade, bead curtain and red tent in the eyes, it is difficult not to associate all this with the team sent by the Qingqiu Kingdom to send relatives.

It's just that it was clearly stated in the national book that it took three days to arrive in Lingqiu City, and now it has only been a day, how can it have already arrived at the city?

Gao Fei didn't plan to meet it now, after all, with such a big pomp and circumstance, it seemed too hasty to walk directly to meet him all the way.

So he walked directly into Lingqiu City.

When he entered the city, he felt as if there were a pair of eyes behind him that were always staring at him.

He doesn't have long eyes behind him, but his gaze has weight, and the more skilled he is, the more he can feel the obviousness of this weight.

He didn't look back, he entered the city, and the city lord of Qiu City greeted Qiu Shan, Gao Fei dismounted, and asked, "What's the matter with these people outside?

Xiang Qiushan also seemed a little puzzled, but he still replied: "Your Majesty, it looks like the Qingqiu Kingdom's family sending team, and it has just arrived, but it is two days earlier than originally said. ”

"They've been waiting outside the city?"

Xiang Akiyama nodded.

Gao Fei climbed up the city tower and looked down at the pair of men and horses below, these cavalry escorting the wedding car looked like the elite of the elite, and there were quite a few of them, roughly estimated, I was afraid that there were about 10,000 people.

The 10,000-person send-off procession doesn't look like it's here to send off relatives, but it looks like it's coming to siege the city.

The general of this cavalry was obviously the young man who rode on a dragon horse and carried a bow and a spear.

When Goofy saw him, he just raised his head to look at Goofy, his gaze was as sharp as a knife, and it seemed that he was the one who had just "seen" him enter the city.

Gao Fei smiled and instructed Xiang Qiushan: "You guys get ready, Lone will change your clothes and go down to meet them." ”

"Your Majesty, this Qingqiu country's send-off team seems to be too grand. Xiang Qiushan looked at the cavalry of Yue Zhi Yuanyu under the city, and couldn't help but remind.

"Are you worried that when we open the city to welcome our relatives, they will take the opportunity to rush into the city?" Gao Fei immediately understood what he meant.

Xiang Qiushan nodded and added, "The cavalry is not suitable for attacking the city, but if the city gate is wide open, as long as they suddenly rush over, the city gate will never have time to close." ”

Gao Fei knew in his heart that if Qingqiu Guo really wanted to attack himself, he didn't need to engage in such a form as peace at all, and he could just send troops to attack Zhu Ning back and forth.

But what if this team of people is pretended to be Zhu Ning's people?

But Gao Fei really couldn't find where Zhu Ning could transfer another 10,000 elite cavalry to appear here at this time.

In just such a moment, Gao Fei had already imagined many possibilities, but no matter which one he had, it seemed that he could not stand on his feet, but despite this, he still ordered: "When you take people out of the city for a while, don't open the city gate too much, just leave room for one person to enter and exit, even if they really try, the cavalry can't rush in." ”

The sky is getting darker and darker, and the black clouds on the city tower are gathering more and more, as if they are going to crush the city tower, the city gate slowly opens, and Gao Fei wears the king's brocade robe and wears a crown on his head, and slowly walks out of the city, followed by dozens of guards in armor.

They walked up to the red bejeweled carriage, and to the young general on the dragon horse.

Goofy was just about to speak, when something unexpected happened.

The young general actually shouted first: "I have heard for a long time that the third prince of Nanchu Gao Fei is a leader in the world in martial arts, and he wants to learn and learn from him!" After speaking, he rose into the air, brandished his spear and stabbed at Gao Fei.

The guards around Gao Fei seemed to be stunned, they couldn't imagine that there could be such an impolite person in this Qingqiu Country's family sending team, and they had to compete in martial arts before they spoke.

However, as the monarch's guard, they naturally will not forget their work, and the moment the young man flew into the air, their Changge was already blocked in front of Gao Fei.

The incident happened suddenly, Goofy almost instinctively counterattacked, and with a flick of his left hand, he removed the tip of the gun pointed directly at his eyebrows, and the opponent suddenly lost his center of gravity, and slapped his right hand towards the opponent's chest.

Gao Fei didn't have any reservations in this palm, because he could already see that the other party didn't just want to fight.

Not only is it not a competition, but it is not even a fair duel.

For at the same time as the young man said that, the cavalry beside him, which had stood silently for a long time, suddenly began to move. But they didn't rush to the castle tower, some of them directly brandished their weapons and killed Gao Fei, and some rushed behind Gao Fei to block his retreat.

Gao Fei suddenly realized at this time: these 10,000 people are not here to send their relatives or attack the city, and all of them have only one goal, which is to kill him.

It's a pity that he understood too late.

The moment he understood, his right hand was already clapping on the boy's chest.

After all, Gao Fei was known as the number one master of the young generation in Southern Chu, and the man flew out directly upside down with just one palm, along with the spear in his hand and the beautiful white longbow on his back.

But at that moment, Goofy's face became even more gloomy, because he suddenly realized that this young man who threatened to compete with him was too weak in martial arts.

At the same time, more blades were already in front of his eyes.

Gao Fei took a deep breath, and a powerful internal force rushed out, and when the countless swords, guns, and halberds fell an inch in front of Gao Fei's body, they seemed to be blocked by an invisible protective shield, and they could no longer advance a single point.

The Southern Chu royal family is unlearned, Tiangang talisman!

But a little chill broke through the impregnable shield, and it was an arrow that was all black.

Darkiron Arrow!

It hadn't yet shot into Goofy's eyebrows, but Goofy felt a little cold on his brow.

The Tiangang Protective Shield slowed it down slightly, but it couldn't stop it from moving forward, as if nothing in the world could stop it from shooting at its target.

At this moment, however, a hand held it.

A right hand, flying high in his own right hand.

At this moment, the threat of death had forced him to break through the limits of his speed, and his right hand finally grasped the hilt of the arrow when the cold light almost touched the tiny hairs on his eyebrows.

So the tip of the arrow deflected a little to the lower left.

But it didn't stop.

The last thing Goofy saw was the red curtain that had been lifted on the red carriage, and there was no bride in the car, only a young man with a bow, this young man was more handsome than the one who sat on the dragon horse before, but his eyes were more resentful, it turned out that he was the one who made Goofy feel like a man in the first place.

He still maintained the posture of drawing a full bow, his bow crystal clear, as if carved from the snow on the top of the mountain.

This was the last picture that Goofy had seen in his life, and the next moment there was only a blood-red patch in front of his eyes, followed by boundless darkness.
