Chapter 398: Xiling Xia Family
Of course, weird is a little weird, it's good to be alive, it's good to be alive.
Pei Jiao had already tested Liu Yuan's pulse for the first time, and found that although the other party was seriously injured, he was still slowly recovering, and this situation was not easy for him to understand for the time being.
But regardless of this, Pei Jiao bent down and hugged Liu Yuanxian, who was lying on the ground and had fainted.
"Hurry up, let's go first, this place is not suitable for a long time. Xiao Chu helped Pei Jiao hold Liu Yuan's body.
Then the two turned around and were about to walk towards Liu Yuanfeng's position, the latter was also anxious about Liu Yuan's injury, and had already run over.
rubbed Liu Yuan's neck with his donkey head, and then took the initiative to lower his body and motioned for Pei Jiao and the two to come up.
"Let's go directly, don't grind, you still follow the previous route, go to Xiling Xia's house and wait for me first, or I will follow me soon." ”
"I'm more familiar with this place than you, so don't worry, hurry up. Saying that, Xiao Chu had already put Liu Yuan's body on the donkey's back and slapped the donkey's buttocks.
Under the pain, without waiting for Pei Jiao to speak, Liu Shufeng screamed and ran forward, and without running two steps, he turned his head and squinted at Xiao Chu, as if he was very dissatisfied with the other party's smacking himself.
Since it has been decided, Pei Jiao is not a twisted girl, she turned her head and glanced at Xiao Chu, bowed her head slightly, and had already recorded the friendship of the other party in her heart.
As Xiao Chu said, since the three of them can't get on the donkey at the same time, it is best for him to stay behind, after all, he is most familiar with the route, and he can find the most hidden way with a corpse on his back.
Before leaving, Xiao Chu wanted to mention a few more words, thinking that the girl was also a smart person, so he didn't waste that time.
Seeing the two of them and a donkey go away, Xiao Chu also entered the mountains with a few ups and downs on the muddy ground, and it didn't affect him from here, but it would be safer.
Now that there are no horses, such a large corpse wrapped in cloth behind it is really not suitable for swaggering, and after wearing it out, you will soon find a remote town, and you can probably buy a horse.
Running briskly between the mountains and forests, every foot that falls will surely step on a shallow pit in the ground.
First, light skills are really not what Xiao Chu is good at, and secondly, the previous injuries in the body are not completely healed.
After all, those people fell into the hands of Little Brother Liu, as simple as chopping melons and vegetables, and the beating on him was also a real pain.
In this state, after Xiao Chu ran out for a few miles, he saw the small river in front of him, and Xiao Chu quickened his pace.
He vaguely remembered that the last time he passed by, there was a river here, and sure enough, after so many years, there was still no change.
Walking quickly to the river, Xiao Chu squatted down, wiped his arms and neck with the water by the river, and rubbed his face fiercely to keep himself awake.
Then he took another wave of water and poured it into his mouth, and then he took a breath and stood up.
As soon as he took a step with his right foot, his expression suddenly changed, his whole body tensed, and he jumped forward as if he was flying.
When I looked back, I realized that where I had been standing, a dagger of moderate length was stuck in the mud.
A little piece of metal that is slightly exposed, and glows green in the sun.
"Do you really think you'll be able to escape? The faint voice was a little dull, coming from nowhere.
There was only the sound of rushing water, and Xiao Chu's face became heavier and heavier.
......
It is estimated that the nervous mood is permeating, and even Liu Tuanfeng felt the atmosphere, moving his hooves and running fast on the avenue.
Firmly protecting Liu Yuan's body in front of him, Pei Jiao kept paying attention to Liu Yuan's injuries all the time.
I found that the condition of the other party's body was extremely bad from the beginning, and now it is much better, although it is not the first day to know Liu Yuan's strangeness, but at this moment, I am still shocked by the other party's recovery speed.
When Pei Jiao was surprised by this, at this moment, Liu Yuan's body was also undergoing earth-shaking changes.
I still remember when I first got this second-level internal force pill, it was clearly written on it that it was easy not to try, and the pain required was several times that of the first-level internal force pill.
After all, this elixir is a complete acceptance of the internal force that does not belong to oneself.
As long as it is not a part of one's body, and it is not the result of one's hard work, it will suffer quite a serious backlash.
As long as the amount of this internal force comes out of nowhere, the more serious the problem will be.
But at the same time, fortunately, Liu Yuan's martial arts of pure yang hegemony that he had cultivated at the beginning had a high physical strength, which was not comparable to ordinary people.
In addition, because of the 'source' in the body, it is extremely difficult to improve.
The internal force pill and the 'source', the two phases collided, creating the situation that happened in Liu Yuan's body now.
The former was frantically destroying everything in Liu Yuan's body, and the 'source' slowly released energy as the destruction began, and began to push Liu Yuan's physical body to a higher level.
Because of this, it is probably the reason why Liu Yuan still had a strange smile on the corner of his mouth when he fainted.
After all, he had long learned what it meant to be in pain and to be happy.
Transformation is inevitably a slow and painful process, and if one party does not disappear, one party will not retreat.
Therefore, fainting can be regarded as a kind of protection for Liu Yuan for himself, and until now, he has actually not found anything that can replace the second-level internal force pill.
The sparring with Dan Tang is the most effective, in addition to improving the pure yang body, it is also a great improvement to one's own comprehension.
It was also the previous competition with Dan Tang that made Liu Yuan's Mountain Desolate Knife Technique improve rapidly.
With the foundation of the previous battle, he felt that some of his sword techniques were approaching the peak of perfection, and he could even display that kind of artistic conception.
Lying on the back of Liu Shufeng's donkey, he didn't feel too many bumps, and Liu Yuan was still relatively comfortable.
"This way. Pei Jiao looked at the road, reached out and touched the donkey's neck, pointed in a direction and said.
Liu Daofeng ran towards there again, and when he was about to run out of the two surrounding mountains, Pei Jiao suddenly reacted to a question.
That's Liu Yuan's blood-drenched appearance now, and it's not suitable to appear in the city.
I'm afraid that if I haven't entered the city yet, I will have to be targeted in front of the city gate, and when the time comes, I will directly treat it as some kind of rioter, and no matter how bad it is, it will be strictly interrogated, let alone wait until the Xia family's mansion.
After turning the hill in front of him, Pei Jiao quickly found a water source and washed Liu Yuan first.
When they arrived at the river, after the two sat down, the question came, Pei Jiao frowned slightly, she didn't know whether Liu Yuan was suitable for going into the water in terms of Liu Yuan's current situation.
The latter's body is recovering rapidly, don't go into the water when the time comes, and then go crazy.
"Forget it, let's just wait until you're good and get it yourself. He lowered his voice and said, Pei Jiao sat next to Liu Yuan and closed his eyes.
I began to think about something in my head, and I thought about it for half an hour, and an hour passed.
The jungle was silent, and there was no movement around him, only the slight breathing sound of Liu Yuan, plus Liu Fufeng using the donkey's hooves to dig the soil.
At this time, Pei Jiao's heart was a little entangled, she was not a twisted person, but when she encountered certain things, she was also a girl's family in the end.
It's a pity that Liu Yuan, a nerd, can't be enlightened about life or death, and he can't imagine that he, who has always been smart, can't work when he encounters this thing.
Under the moonlight, a faint white light pulled her and Liu Yuan's bodies out of the shadow of the elder, and a leisurely sigh sounded in the jungle.
The time of the day is like this, and it is night.
A few people are in this deep mountain and old forest, but they are happy to be quiet and leisurely.
The outside world is already a different scene, not far from here, on the horizon, there is a majestic city - Hongguang City.
It is the residence of the Xiling Xia family for generations, from the ancestor of the Xia family, the Xiling Dao Yushitai, the pioneer general Xia Wuwu as an official here, hundreds of years of operation, only now has the prestige of the Xiling Xia family.
The dynasty has changed, the world has changed, and only a few high-ranking lords and families have prospered.
I still remember that Emperor Qinglong of the previous dynasty wanted to marry the seventh princess to the son of the Xia family, but was politely rejected by the Xia family, which shows that it is general.
Now, when the Great Wei Dynasty is worried about internal and external troubles, the thoughts of summer are becoming more and more lively.
After all, for so many years, the world has said a good and long-lasting family gate, but in fact, they still have a certain longing for the golden dragon chair.
No matter how good you are, a family is just a family after all, even if there are more than 20 prime ministers in the first century.
Now the opportunity has been placed in front of him, and the Xia family lives today, that is, Xia Lingling's father, Xia Mingguang, who has been planning for many years and is here in one move.
Even if he can't ascend the throne in Kyoto, he will be the king and hegemon in his lifetime.
It's hard to say that his actions like this will not destroy the century-old foundation of his ancestors, but he doesn't care.
When he was only twenty-two years old, this idea came to his heart, and on the basis of this idea, he contacted several prestigious clan elders in the clan.
Each of them is in charge of a part of the family, and if they really want to do something, they can't do it without the support of these people.
Fortunately, he did it, and got the support of seven or eight out of ten of the family elders, and then he successfully sat in the position of this family.
And at first, he also hid his truest purpose very well, after all, the rebellion, just saying it, is enough to make people shake their heads and be afraid.
As time passed, his forces or minions were infiltrating little by little, and at a faster speed, some of the clan elders or the branches represented behind them were firmly tied to their warships.
It wasn't until he was completely prepared that he found a suitable opportunity to propose a rebellion.
Of course, at that time, what he said was not the word rebellion, but a great step to realize the Xiling Xia family, and this step would become heaven.
It's not the sky of Xiling, but the sky of the people of the world.
Some things can be said directly, but they still like to be tactful, which is probably a habit they have inherited for a long time.
As expected, some people agree and some people will oppose, and for some people who are extremely opposed, Xia Mingguang has taken a tough approach.
And at that time, he was fully capable of doing so, and after doing so, he would not be afraid of losing his power or being hollowed out by others.
By the time those who opposed reacted to this, it was too late, and they paid with their lives.
"It's hard to get started, but I at least got off to a good start, didn't I?"
In a dimly lit room, visibility was low.
The reason for this is that the house is somewhat closed, with only weak window paper that lets in some moonlight.
There was no electric light in the room, and in the middle of the hall stood a man whose face was not clear, and directly opposite sat Xia Guangming, the current head of the Xia family, who was now almost fifty years old.
The previous sentence came out of his mouth, and he also recalled the old days.
The one in front of him is his eldest son, and he is also the one who stands firmly on his side, he Xia Mingguang has six sons and three daughters, and the youngest is a girl who is still held in the arms of the nurse.
If the rest of the sons are not thinking about eating, drinking, and having fun, they will only think about money, thinking about the family business or martial arts, and so on.
Even if the Xia family has rebelled clearly, they are still like this, just thinking about living this life with wealth and nobility, although he didn't hear the discordant voice in front of him, but he thought that it was indispensable behind it.
"I have always understood my father's ambitions, and I am not like my second brother and them, who are only greedy for pleasure. ”
"But the son has something unclear, since his father is so ambitious, and now he has embarked on the great cause of rebellion, why did he confront the king of the flat top of the district until now, and let Da Wei free up his hand, and the secretary of the military department has arrived. ”
"Didn't you make a move at the best time and give the other party a thunderous method, don't you think it's a little late now?"
"It's late, it's not too late at all, do you really think that the Pingding King is so easy to deal with?" Xia Mingguang said this, he had already raised his hand, pinched his eyebrows and said, "Okay, you go out, it's not too early, it's time for my father to rest." ”
After saying a few words, without waiting for the eldest son to continue, he waved his hand to let him leave and closed the door.
"Yes, Father. After the eldest son finished speaking, he walked out the door, and they had always been so polite between father and son.
It's not just the two of them, the eldest son gets along with his brothers and sisters, and they all maintain such politeness, of course, there is one exception, that is Xia Lingling.
After going out, standing in front of the corridor in the courtyard, looking up at the starry sky, in the arch not far away, his second brother, that is, the second son of the Xia family, walked over with a hippie smile.
"The second brother has this leisure today, come and see his father?"
"The eldest brother can see it, but the second brother can't see it. He replied with a playful smile.
Obviously, I didn't want to say more, the eldest brother turned around and was about to leave, and the second brother got up again and followed behind: "My sister is home, I heard that I lost a county, big brother, you have to be careful, hehe." ”
