Chapter 90: Immortal Elixir (2)
The knife flew like a thunderbolt, and the waves gave way. Anyone can see it, but there's absolutely no way to avoid it. It pierced Zheng Zihuan's chest, flew back prematurely, and fell into the hands of a one-armed swordsman.
The swordsman's eyes were like lightning, and there was a long scar on Yingwu's face. Lu Heng recognized him.
"Li Remnant. ”
Li Yan said: "Deal with Zheng Zihuan first!"
Lu Heng smiled, and the long sword swung out, instantly cutting off the poison ivy.
The sword is combined, and the bullfight is angry.
Heaven and earth are broken, and they become one.
Zheng Zihuan was powerless to parry a Lu Heng alone, not to mention Li Yan? They attacked left and right, and in the whirlpool of blades, Zheng Zihuan's body shattered piece by piece. Although the immortal medicine recovered its body extremely quickly, it was always a step slower than the speed of the two.
The murderous aura is rampant, Zheng Zihuan is already a blood mist. The golden pill sparkles at the place of its heart. Lu Heng suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed Jin Dan.
Zheng Zihuan, who was no longer in human form, screamed and spread out in the air, as if it had rained blood.
Jin Dan returned to Lu Heng's hands.
Li Yan put the knife back into the sheath and said to him, "Uncle Lu, congratulations." You've got the elixir of immortality. ”
Lu Heng smiled faintly: "Why are you here?"
Li Yan said: "I'm here to stop the immortal medicine from falling into the hands of bad people. ”
Lu Heng asked, "Don't you think I'm not a bad person?"
"Of course not. Li Yan said, "Not only that, I think you can even be called a chivalrous man." My third uncle and I investigated what you did together, and found that the Jinfeng Hall that you destroyed was bullying men and women in the local area under the banner of being famous and upright, which is no different from a gang. The residents of Zhangwan Town wept blood and petitioned, and you helped them preside over justice.
There is also a battle with the six major factions, which was originally won by relying on many people. You have no choice but to act in order to protect yourself. Later, Zheng Zihuan threatened the life of a girl, and all kinds of behaviors were not only not upright and gentlemen, but even inferior to the underworld, which was really despicable.
Uncle Lu, I think that although your methods are a little ruthless, you are still a good man who clearly distinguishes between right and wrong. Therefore, Li will not oppose you today, whether you take this golden pill or take it yourself, I will not stop it. ”
Lu Heng said: "What you said is right. But I will make it difficult for you. ”
Li Yan's face changed: "How do you say this?"
Lu Heng handed the Jin Dan to Gu Hanyue behind him and said, "Someone told me that with your blood and Jin Dan, you can refine a heart for me - I am a person without a heart, and I can't refuse such a condition." ”
Li Yan said: "But Li's blood doesn't want to be spilled in vain." It's not so easy for Uncle Lu to want my life. ”
Lu Heng sighed: "Of course." I've always seen you as my only adversary, not my enemy. After listening to your words just now, I even think we can be friends.
But there is no way, I can't experience friendship if I don't have a heart, and I can't get a heart if I don't kill you. It's an endless loop, sorry. ”
Li Yan said: "Uncle Lu doesn't need to be sorry, it is not yet known who killed the deer." ”
With that, he took a deep breath, put his hand on the hilt of the knife, and closed his eyes as if the old monk was in a state of silence.
Lu Hengping raised his long sword and held it horizontally in front of his chest. All of a sudden, everything fell silent. Everyone couldn't understand what these two geniuses with extraordinary martial arts were doing.
In fact, the competition has begun, the killing intent is clashed, and the things and I forget about them. As long as one of them relaxes the slightest, all that awaits him is death.
Lu Heng could have served Jin Dan and then duel with Li Yan, in that case he would definitely win. But perhaps even he didn't realize that he didn't want Lee to die. This man has a pure heart that he dreams of, and he is not willing to destroy it.
The waves murmur and the breeze blows. Gulls and herons fly and chirp in the orange-red sea. The two remained motionless.
Lu Heng hesitated.
But at this moment, suddenly there was a trumpet sound on the sea. Li Yan and Lu Heng retreated at the same time and looked into the distance. I saw that the building ship that carried Lu Heng and his party to Xianshan raised bright yellow sails and embroidered a five-clawed golden dragon on it.
A pretty woman and three servants stood in the bow of the boat. The woman was dressed in a dragon costume and a flying phoenix crown, and her face was like a sunset. She is Gu Hanyue. And the three servants held dust whisks in their hands and dressed as eunuchs, they were Gu Yun, Gu Shan, and Gu Shui.
She took the golden pill.
Kongkonger and Ji Qing asked in unison, "Miss Gu, what are you doing here?"
Lu Heng understood in an instant. It was he who personally handed over the golden pill to Gu Hanyue just now. He smiled bitterly and said, "I really didn't expect you to be like this." ”
Gu Hanyue sobbed on the railing: "I'm sorry, I should die, I lied to you." But I can't help it, my father is the emperor. He wants Jin Dan, what can I do as a daughter?"
Everyone was shocked, it turned out that Gu Hanyue was a princess. She is indeed not surnamed Gu, but surnamed Li, and she is Princess Mingyue who is given by the emperor today.
Ji Qing said in a trembling voice: "Sister Hanyue...... Are you kidding?" she usually quarrels with Gu Hanyue the most, as if they don't like each other, but in fact, they have the best feelings. I really can't accept the fact that Gu Hanyue is backwater.
Princess Hanyue said: "Sister Jiqing, it's okay for you to scold me a few words......"
Ji Qing shook her head and was silent.
Li Yan suddenly asked, "Your Royal Highness Princess, do you want to give this golden pill to your father?"
Princess Hanyue said, "Yes." If it were for someone else, I would never betray my friend......"
Li Remnant said: "When there is chaos today, the people are not happy. After the emperor lost Sichuan, he did not want to recover, but instead pointed the finger at his own people, and later set up a place outside the law, so that the wicked were rampant.
As the Lord of All Saints, he should be diligent in government and love the people, but he burned gold and alchemy with the power of the whole country and collected rare treasures. Since his accession to the throne, he has never stopped for a day.
Your Royal Highness Princess, you have also walked around the rivers and lakes, haven't you seen the displaced victims and the bones on the side of the road? In the final analysis, these mistakes were all committed by your father. If you give the golden pill to such a faint king, do you want to push the people of the world into the fire pit?"
Han Yue said angrily: "Shut up, a grass folk dare to criticize the Son of Heaven!"
Li Yan said: "It's easy for me to shut up, but it's hard to shut up the world." If no one in the world dares to speak, your beam will be almost finished. ”
These words made Princess Hanyue indefensible. She has also read poetry and books since she was a child, and she understands the truth that the mouth of the people is more important than the defense of Sichuan. But in any case, the daughter always looks to the father, she bit her lip and said, "My father is just deceived by traitors. After taking the elixir of immortality, he will no longer have any desires or desires, and he will naturally be diligent in government and love the people. ”
Li Yan sighed and said, "Your Highness, the so-called desire is difficult to fill. I'm afraid he'll have to think of something else after he dies. ”
At this time, the giant kun raised its head from the sea, and it was about to return.
Princess Hanyue said, "How about you stay on this island for ten years? I will definitely come to pick you up in ten years." Then you will see a peaceful and prosperous world, and you will definitely be!"
Her friends were all silent. Only Li Yan said: "Your Highness is afraid that I will join forces with Uncle Lu, which will be detrimental to the emperor, right?"
Princess Hanyue shook her head desperately: "No, that's not the case! they are all my best friends, how could I think that?"
But no matter how much she defends herself at this moment, her language pales in comparison.
The sea shook, and the giant kun tightened its fins, shook suddenly, and carried the ship forward quickly. Hanyue left without saying goodbye to them. The shadow of the giant kun in the setting sun became farther and farther away, and only loneliness remained.
