Chapter 35: The Road to Rivalry is Narrow

Some people are destined to become friends, no matter how late this friendship comes, but eventually they will become friends and even confidants. Maybe it's because they have the same feelings, the same way of doing things, or maybe they're the same kind of people.

And some people are destined to become enemies, no matter how they hide, they can't hide from the arrangement of fate, because they are not on the same path in the first place.

It's been a long time, but nothing has happened, nothing has happened as expected. Standing in the alley, Wuxin couldn't help frowning, with a hint of worry. Because he and Shangguan Yunjie had already made an appointment when they separated, Shangguan Yunjie would enter Changle Palace, and Wuxin would guard at the back door of Changle Palace, if everything was normal, then Shangguan Yunjie would come out of the front door and go to the back door to meet Wuxin, if something happened, then the other party would definitely hold Shangguan Yunjie hostage and leave through the back door, so Wuxin would appear here. Of course, Shangguan Yunjie's hijacking was also one of their strategies.

But now that a long time has passed, there is still no movement, and Shangguan Yunjie has not come out, so he has no intention of knowing the situation inside, so he can only wait here quietly, feeling a little anxious.

Just when I was hesitating to sneak in and check it out, there was a sudden movement. The back door of Changle Palace was gently opened from the inside, and then a head poked out, looked left and right, and then opened the door and walked out. Immediately after that, several more people came out, one of whom carried a burlap bag on his shoulder. A few people did not stop, closed the door and left in a hurry, walking like flying.

When Wuxin saw this group, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and the fish finally took the bait. Without much thought, he quietly followed behind the group.

Yunzhou City at night, except for the brilliant lights of Changle Palace, other places seem to be very quiet, and there are no people along the way, only a trace of dim light can be seen from the windows of several houses from a distance. The moonlight sprinkled silently on the ground, and only a few steps away could be seen, which was just right for some shady deeds. Darkness is often the best disguise.

It wasn't long before the group came to a not-so-small mansion with two big red lanterns hanging from the door. One of them stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door three times, and almost at the same time, the door opened, and several people slipped in in a hurry. The last man to walk in looked around, paused when he saw Wuxin's direction, then turned and closed the door.

This is an old man, but only one of his left arms remains, a disabled old man, but he is definitely not an ordinary person, because this person is the person who ordered Shangguan Yunjie not to leave in Changle Palace just now.

Seeing this person, Wuxin was also stunned, because he knew this person, and this person also knew him, although he hadn't seen him for a long time, Wuxin still recognized him at a glance. This person is one of the twin eagles of Saibei, Snow Eagle Monan.

Wuxin's brows couldn't help but furrow, it seemed that things were definitely not as simple as he thought, otherwise he would not have been able to see the person who should not have appeared here.

In the mansion, the spacious hall was full of people, and the whole hall was illuminated by candles and torches all around. In the middle of the hall, on the Taishi chair, sat an old man, looking at the entrance of the corridor leading to the front yard, as if waiting for someone. Next to the old man, there was a person standing, a person dressed as a small man, looking at the clothes on his body, he should be a person from Changle Palace.

After a while, several people hurriedly walked over from the front yard, led by Snow Eagle Monan. I saw him laughing as he walked, as if he had picked up some treasure. Before he could walk into the hall, he said with a smile: "Big brother, look at who I invited for you." As he spoke, he motioned to the man behind him to put down the burlap bag, and the smile on his face became more and more proud.

"In the middle of the night, you asked the little maid to come and tell me that you had prepared a big gift for me, so it turned out to be a person?" said the old man sitting on the Taishi's chair dissatisfied. It is estimated that no matter who it is, it will not be a happy thing for people to wake up from the bed.

"You'll know when you see it, I'm sure you'll like it!" Mo Nan said with a smile, and as he spoke, he untied the rope tied to the sack, and the mouth of the bag turned down, revealing a person. However, this person seems to have been unconscious for a long time, and he is sitting there paralyzed, it is Shangguan Yunjie.

Seeing Shangguan Yunjie, the old man who was originally sitting on the chair suddenly stood up, looked at Shangguan Yunjie in the sack in surprise, and then looked at Mo Nan on the side, and laughed.

After the old man laughed, he limped over to Shangguan Yunjie, and said as he walked: "I can't imagine that even God will help us Saibei Shuangying, the famous Fengyun Castle, it seems that it will decline from now on." As he spoke, he touched his leg, and a hint of hatred flashed in his eyes. This lame old man is the other one of the Saibei Double Eagles, the Goshawk Mobei.

Seeing Shangguan Yunjie's unconscious appearance, Mo Bei frowned and said, "You have already killed him?" said and looked at Mo Nan with a little complaint.

Mo Nan shook his head and said with a smile: "No, this kid went to Changle Palace to inquire about the news, and pretended to be his father's friend, but he didn't expect to be bumped into by an old acquaintance of mine, and he was unlucky." I was afraid that he would resist, so I had my men drug him, and he should wake up in an hour or two. ”

Mo Bei listened to Mo Nan's words, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "That's good, since their father and son have met, why don't you let them meet, let that old thing watch me kill his son with my own eyes!"

"Come on, get that old thing out!" Mo Nan shouted at the crowd.

After a while, several people walked out with a scarred and dejected old man. This person is none other than the Fort Lord of Fengyun Castle, Shangguan Fengyun. It's just that he has disappeared from the coldness and majesty of the past, and he looks a little embarrassed, and it seems that he has been beaten a lot, and the purple and gold wind and cloud robe on his body has already been tattered.

"Old thing, who do you think this is?" Mo Bei looked at Shangguan Fengyun with a smile, pointed to Shangguan Yunjie in the sack and said, his face full of playful expression.

The decadent Shangguan Fengyun looked in the direction of Mo Bei's finger, and then suddenly opened his eyes wide, and shouted hoarsely: "Jie'er, Jie'er!" struggled to rush over, but he was firmly held by two big men, and he couldn't rush through, not to mention that he still had two heavy shackles on his body to lock his hands and feet.

Seeing Shangguan Fengyun's hysterical embarrassment, Saibei Shuangying smiled even more happily, they have been waiting for a long time at this moment, and they have become the crippled appearance they are now, all because they were injured last time in Fengyun Castle, if Fengyun Castle hadn't invited helpers, the Shangguan Fengyun father and son in front of them would have been the dead souls under their hands.

"I didn't expect that you father and son were as stupid as you were all given the same medicine by me unknowingly, and you ended up today, which can only show that you are destined to die in our hands. Mo Nan gritted his teeth and said fiercely. He is the worst, although Mo Bei is lame, but fortunately, he is still on himself, and he has no arm, so the hatred in his heart is the deepest.

"You can kill me! I killed your apprentice in the first place, and I also found someone to hurt you, it has nothing to do with Jie'er, let him go, kill me, kill me!" Shangguan Fengyun looked at Saibei Shuangying almost pleading and shouted, for him, his son is the most important, although that son has not listened to his own words since he was a child, but that is his only flesh and blood, how can he watch him die.

"You're wrong! And it's a big mistake! I'll tell you now, we went to Fengyun Castle, we weren't originally to avenge our apprentices, a disdainful person is not worth what we do, we just took this opportunity to want to destroy your Fengyun Castle, and then control the Phantom City, but we didn't expect to be disturbed by a hairy boy who came out of nowhere, otherwise you would have died a long time ago, can you still stand here and talk to me about conditions? Now it's just a repetition of the old thing, but this time the ending is determined by us!" Mo Bei said with a sneer, and explained the reason for the bloody battle in Fengyun Castle in one sentence.

When Shangguan Fengyun heard Mo Bei's words, he finally revealed the doubts he had always had in his heart, and it turned out that it was really not as simple as he saw on the surface. I couldn't help but ask, "Why? What do you want Phantom City for? For money, for status?"

"You don't have to ask why, I won't tell you if I ask, I just blame you for being born in the wrong place, you shouldn't be in the way of others, now, I want you to see your own son die in front of you!" Mo Nan waved his hand to interrupt Shangguan Fengyun's words, and walked over to Shangguan Yunjie.

"Don't! I can give you money, I can quit the Phantom City, don't kill my son, don't!" Shangguan Fengyun shouted in horror, his eyes full of despair, because Mo Nan had already swung out a palm and slapped Shangguan Yunjie's Heavenly Spirit Gai. Broken Heart Palm Mo Nan, although he broke an arm, but the Broken Heart Palm is still extremely powerful.

Just when Mo Nan's palm was about to fall on Shangguan Yunjie's head, a scene that surprised everyone happened. I saw that Shangguan Yunjie, who was originally paralyzed on the ground and unconscious, suddenly woke up, stretched out a finger like lightning, and pointed at the wrist of Snow Eagle Monan!

Mo Nan was also stunned by this scene, and before he could withdraw the palm he swung out, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his wrist, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly took a few steps back, and looked at Shangguan Yunjie who suddenly jumped up and landed a few steps away in horror, he couldn't believe his eyes. He had obviously charmed the other party with drugs, how could he suddenly wake up, the properties of the medicine have not passed, Mo Nan couldn't figure it out.

"Jie'er, are you okay?" Shangguan Fengyun shouted happily when he saw his son who had escaped death, and then suddenly realized something, and hurriedly shouted: "Jie'er, go away! Leave me alone!"

"Where are you going!Shut up!old thing!" Mo Nan glared at Shangguan Fengyun fiercely, turned his head to stare at Shangguan Yunjie and said, "Tell me, what's going on? You have obviously been drugged by me, why?" He was unwilling, and he must ask to understand.

Shangguan Yunjie looked at his scarred father in front of him, and felt distressed in his heart. Father's face has long lost the majesty of the past, and it does not have the momentum of the original lord of Fengyun Castle. Now he is just an old man who is covered in scars and wants to protect his children but can't do anything, he looks so pitiful, pitiful and distressing.

Maybe only father's love can make a hero who has been through the rivers and lakes for a long time become like this, the current Shangguan Fengyun, although embarrassed, looks so tall in the eyes of Shangguan Yunjie.

"Do you think I'll leave you alone? Shangguan Yunjie held back a trace of tears in his eyes and said firmly.

Shangguan Fengyun was stunned for a moment when he heard his son's words, and a heartfelt smile appeared on his face. The son has really grown up and can be on his own, even if he is really dead now, he can rest assured.

"I'm asking you, tell me!" Mo Nan looked at Shangguan Yunjie, who ignored him, and shouted at the top of his voice, his teeth squeaked, it seemed that he was really a little angry.

Shangguan Yunjie took a deep breath, turned his head and looked at Mo Nan coldly, and said slowly: "That's just a ploy by me to lure the snake out of the hole, Master." After speaking, there was a look of disdain on his face, and there was a hint of ridicule in his eyes.

Everyone present was stunned by what he said and was a little confused......

The smile in Shangguan Yunjie's eyes deepened......
