"Is it really just a fallen leaf?"

"I said yes, yes. ”

“......”

Xia Yuan's words, the ghosts don't believe it.

King Yueyang is not an idiot, so he won't believe it.

But he thought deeper, didn't break it in person, just quietly glanced at the north, and said, "No wonder you have to wait for Xia Xun to leave Yueyang City before coming to my Yueyang Palace." It's just, I don't know if this is your personal idea or the hermit's idea?"

"It doesn't matter whose idea it is. ”

Xia Yuan frowned impatiently: "The important thing is whether you give or not." ”

"Give, of course give, how can you not give?"

Taking the wine and pouring the wine, King Yueyang responded with great certainty: "The hidden master has the grace of teaching this king, and he will recreate it with kindness." Since the hidden master is about to arrive, how can this king not give it?

"Good, atmospheric!"

Xia Yuan suddenly laughed, slapped the desk in front of him with his free hand, and then twisted the red chess piece in his other hand, slowed down a little and said: "The village chief said that the name of this thing is to melt blood, and it is divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower. Grandpa, I won't lie to you, Chunyang's side is hundreds of thousands. This human life is exchanged for a high-grade thing, a total of 100,000. If you pour 100,000 of my top-grade melted blood..."

"Poof!"

"Ahem..."

Xia Yuan said calmly, but King Yueyang, who was raising a glass and drinking on the other side, changed his face when he heard this!

The sake that had just entered his mouth couldn't be held back, and he immediately squirted out in an extremely gaffe, spilling a game of chess pieces, and coughing sounded. And the same gaffe, there is also the dance banquet, I saw that her small mouth was not only slightly open, the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes were torn out by her forcefully opened her eyelids, and her eyes looked at Xia Yuan like a madman, extremely unconfident...

However, it is no wonder that these two men lost their temper.

After all, Xia Yuan's lion opening this time was really too big. Let's not talk about the bloody origin behind the chess piece in Xia Yuan's hand. Just to refine such a top-grade pill, it would take the essence blood of hundreds of people and thousands of people. Xia Yuan opened his mouth and said that he wanted 100,000 pieces, how many people's essence blood would it take, how many people's lives?

100 million, the essence and blood of 100 million people, the lives of 100 million people!

Such a huge number sounds terrifying. Don't say it's human life, it's a domestic pig, killing and bloodletting is also a huge project, how can you blame King Yueyang and Wuyan for losing their temper when they heard the sound?

"Are you sure you didn't say the wrong thing?" King Yue Yang quickly eased his shock, suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked.

"That's right, it's 100,000. Xia Yuan replied.

It can be seen that Xia Yuan is not joking. Although King Yue Yang didn't know what to think at this time, at least he would never feel good, after all, he had only boldly agreed to this matter before a word.

He thought for a moment, and then asked, "Does the Hidden Master have a saying?"

Xia Yuan was not ambiguous, and replied directly: "Although the Northern Lion is fierce, it lacks talent, twenty years is too short, and it has not been refined to the Mahayana, and it still lacks soldiers. If you want to break the black python and chase the Central Plains, you must borrow external help to be foolproof. ”

“......”

King Yue Yang knew that these words were indeed said by the great strategist in the north. Because, with Xia Yuan's mouth, it is absolutely impossible to arrange such a deep and stable language. And Xia Xun will never give him advice in this matter, and even more, Xia Xun still doesn't know anything about this matter.

"Wow~"

After thinking about it for a long time, the wine was poured again, and he drank it all in a sip, poured it again, and drank it again, and so on for several rounds, King Yueyang seemed to have made up his mind, and said, "Fifty thousand." ”

"This man's life is at stake, and he can't do it without a son. There was no room for negotiation, Xia Yuan decisively refused.

"Your appetite is too great, and the value of 50,000 top-grade melting blood is far greater than the 100,000 lives of Pure Yang. ”

"Grandpa, I don't care about this, the village chief has set the number, grandpa, I have to. ”

"What if I don't give?"

"If you don't give it, you have to give. ”

"You're pretty brute. ”

"Of course. ”

“......”

Sitting opposite two people, quickly counting words, the dance banquet on the inside of the chessboard, and the suspicion in his eyes is even more serious.

And the main reason is King Yueyang's reply. King Yue Yang just thought about it for a moment and then bargained for 50,000 in half, which seemed to be a lot of halves at once, but in fact, the amount was still amazing. What's even more amazing is his stable attitude of casually taking out 50,000 "high-grade melting blood" as the reserve price. There is a way in business, and only by keeping the capital of buying and selling can it take root. Since King Yueyang was able to take 50,000 pills, it meant that what he had in his hands at this time was far more than that! In this way, it was not difficult to imagine how many things that hurt the heavens and reason that this crouching tiger in front of him, who had been hiding in Yueyang for 12 years, had done in his dormant years!

"What, don't you want to give it?"

Seeing that King Yueyang had nothing to say, Xia Yuan hit the snake and went to the ground with a stick and said: "Don't tell grandpa that I don't have this number, the foundation of those people behind you, our village chief knows very well." Besides, 100,000 melted blood in exchange for foreign aid from the Northern Lion, you are a good deal. ”

King Yue Yang said in a deep voice: "I will raise tigers for trouble." ”

Xia Yuan said: "How could I not have sought skin with the tiger?"

“......”

There was silence, and there was no sound here.

Quiet and repeated, slow and lingering. The sandalwood is running out, only the last section is left, and the faint fragrance has begun to become light and tasteless. The dim candlelight flickered with the thoughts, and it was bright and extinguished. Pondering, considering, waiting, the three different hearts are inextricably linked, and they seem intricate.

For the tens of millions of miles of territory and endless creatures in the Southern Regions, in fact, tonight is just as important as last night. If it is said that last night's Yingshui Night Banquet represents the official rise of King Yueyang and changes the north-south pattern of the Tang Dynasty. Tonight's Yueyang Mansion talks mean that for a long time to come, all forces in the southern region will work together to form a unified strategic policy of resisting the north. Therefore, even if he is the king of Yueyang, who has the deepest city government and a first-class mind, he has to take some time to think about it.

"Chirp~"

On the incense platform, the last smear of incense ash was broken.

The scarlet remnants of the carbon, greedily breathing the air, but it didn't take long for it to finally go out.

Insist on pouring wine, but unfortunately the wine has been poured out, and the empty tiger head wine at this time can only pour out a more empty aftertaste. Helplessly, the wine is gone, and I can't drink it anymore. Open the lid casually, swipe the case with one hand, and pick up one of the remaining two chess pieces on the desk, and then stand up, put his hands on the waist, take a heavy step, and leave the hall.

King Yueyang, gone.

Before he left, he still didn't answer Xia Yuan's request, let alone leave a word, as if he didn't remember such a thing, he threw his hand and left the two of them, and just left.

"What does he mean by this?" Looking at the back of King Yueyang who was already far away from the main hall, Xia Yuan asked coldly.

At this time, there were only two people left, so the person Xia Yuan asked could just be a dance banquet.

And Wu Yan didn't fight him, glanced at the position where King Yueyang had sat before, and said coldly: "You won." ”

Xia Yuan seemed to be unclear: "Why?"

Wu Yan said: "Leave a chess piece on the desk and type a word." The lid of the wine is opened, showing that there is no wine, and then leaving, which means that there is no water here to quench their thirst. Therefore, this word is thirsty word, and homophony is can. ”

“......”

Wonderful, wonderful!

King Yueyang's dumb riddle is very good, and the dance banquet's quick thinking in solving the riddle at a glance is even better.

I never thought that under the noble appearance of the dance banquet, it turned out that there was not only a ruffian like Xia Yuan, but also such a seven-trick exquisite heart. It's no wonder that as soon as King Yueyang left, Xia Yuan asked her questions directly. If you don't ask such a head, do you have to waste your time guessing?

"Oh. ”

Xia Yuan should say a word, and there was no more words here.

The candle shadow was dim, the aftertaste was heavy, Xia Yuan didn't know what to think about when he looked at the chessboard, and he didn't know what to think when he looked at the smoke that had been extinguished at the dance banquet. There is no so-called embarrassment of lonely men and widows living in the same room, only the loneliness condensed by silence. It feels like there is an invisible wall between the two people who are less than eight feet apart, blocking all the communication they can generate. Nothing, still nothing, just nothing, but looking at the appearance of these two people, it seems that they have no intention of leaving so soon.

The moontop treetops, the moon is bright and the shadow is scarce.

The wild cats in the courtyard were gone, and only a dead carp with its belly gnawed off was left, lying quietly on the ground. Fireflies dance with peonies at night, birds sleep lightly with nests and chicks, dozens of generals on the right side of the main hall of the palace are ordered to leave one after another, and finally Gu Fan left, Master Hu then left, only dozens of people in the left column remained, still sitting in the main hall, whispering, pondering each other.

"Whew~"

For a long time...

The two people in the apse sat silently for a long, long time.

sat until the seven oil lamps in the hall were blown out by the night wind, making the dim hall even darker.

"At noon seven days later, I will wait for you at the lake in the western suburbs of Luoyang. Wu Yan suddenly said coldly

"I'm not available. Without thinking about it, Xia Yuan decisively refused.

It is estimated that Xia Yuan would refuse, but Wu Yan's face did not change at all, and said, "Let me ask again, do you go or not?"

"I'm not available. I still didn't think about it and decisively refused.

"Okay, then don't blame me, it's bad for you. ”

The dance banquet was simply this time, responded coldly, got up and rolled up his long sleeves, stepped on the chessboard, and walked away.

Watching the dance banquet drag the long purple phoenix feather skirt past in front of him, Xia Yuan's voice was slightly louder: "What do you want to do?"

"I don't want to do anything, it's just that some things have been uncomfortable in my heart for too long, and I feel that it's time to make it public. The lotus step who walked out slowed down a few minutes when he heard the sound, but he still didn't stop, crossed Xia Yuan, and walked towards the palace gate.

Xia Yuan thought about it, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and shouted coldly, "Stop!"

"Hmph. ”

Wu Yan snorted coldly, stopped drinking, and turned his head to look at Xia Yuan fiercely: "Don't scare me, you should know that I don't eat this!"

Xia Yuan softened a little indifferently: "You make it clear before you leave, will you succeed?"

"Okay. ”

Wu Yan simply responded, and at the same time vigorously flicked his long sleeves, pulled them behind his back, and the moon eyebrows were ruthless! You have been hiding from me for 20 years, and you should pay me back what you owe me! Others may not know your Xia Yuan's secret, but do you think you can hide it from me?"

"What's the secret?"

"The prince's orphan!"

“！！”

The raised eyebrows were secretly raised, but Xia Yuan still pretended to be nothing, and said, "I don't know what you're talking about." ”

"Oh, I don't know, right? Okay, that's good..."

Wu Yan Yin nodded, his face became colder, and his voice became louder: "Since you don't know, then tomorrow I will announce this news to the world, I want to see how many days he can live! I have seen through your Xia family's set of tanuki changing the prince as early as twelve years ago, anyway, I have endured it for twenty years, and I have endured enough of everything! I have no more ruthlessness and no righteousness to talk to you, if he dies, I will be happy!"

"You dare?"

"What am I afraid of?"

"Click!"

The dance banquet threatened, and Xia Yuan got up with a loud shout!

The palm that was placed on his lap suddenly clenched into a fist! The bright red aura spread from Xia Yuan's right shoulder to his fist in an instant like a flame! An undisguised killing intent burst out from Xia Yuan's violent eyes, and it was rigidly enveloped in the dance banquet! This killing intent didn't look like a fake at all, it was cold, furious, and left no room at all, it seemed that it was possible to make Xia Yuan punch out at any time!

It seems that the dance banquet is true, at least Xia Yuan has no doubts.

Perhaps, she really knows something...

After all, if there was anyone in this world who could see through the secret in Xia Yuan's heart, that person would undoubtedly be the woman in front of him.

"Yo, you want to kill me?"

In the face of Xia Yuan's undisguised killing intent, the dance banquet seemed calm, with a sarcastic ridicule on his face, as if he was out of the realm of life and death, and as if he decided that Xia Yuan would not dare to do anything to her. The slender left hand stretched out from the wind sleeve, and beckoned to Xia Yuan contemptuously, his phoenix eyes were like the moon, and he said provocatively: "Come on, I'll just stand here and let you kill!"

"Silk..."

The so-called one thing makes one thing, glutinous rice makes wood fleas, perhaps this is the truth.

The dance banquet was unscrupulous, Xia Yuan's fist hand just didn't move, it seemed that his answer was clear, that is, he really didn't dare! The aura of the arm that had just been raised was dissipated by the calm smile of the dance banquet and hidden back into the arm. And that undoubtedly murderous aura was more like a gust of wind that had no return, blowing out of Xia Yuan's eyes, blowing the purple and gold feather skirt of the dance banquet, blowing out of the hall, and finally blowing out of the hall, and finally blowing without a trace.

No, I really can't pretend.

Xia Yuan's domineering can scare ordinary people, but pretending to be garlic in front of the dance banquet is simply humiliating himself.

Since people stepped into this hall, they didn't take him seriously at all, let you be murderous, and everyone can despise you at a glance and make you disappear, what else can you do? Women are terrible, a woman who has figured out a man's mind is too terrible. Even if you have a thousand abilities, in the end you will only be a piece of fish on the anvil.

Xia Yuan should really have a handle to be caught by the dance banquet. He lowered his voice and waved his hand: "I won't talk to you, I will go to see you in seven days." If you dare to let this go out and harm me, then don't blame me for being ruthless. ”

"Heh..."

"Cowardice. ”

laughed contemptuously, scolded, and didn't talk nonsense.

Pull up the long sleeves, turn around again, step lightly on the lotus step, step out of the hall, turn into a victorious purple butterfly, drag the long tail, and gradually disappear into the night...

Empty, lonely and cold, lonely shadow is the most boring.

Hold a grudge against the old years, and think about the soul of the night alone.

The dance banquet was gone, leaving Xia Yuan alone in the hall. The lingering fragrance dissipated, and the remaining candles flickered, reflecting Xia Yuan's tough face. The angry tiger's eyes were round, as if they had just eaten a dead fly, and they were extremely ugly. In tonight's game, he may have barely won the King of Yueyang, but he completely lost to the dance banquet...

Because, she really knows that secret.

"Stinky!"

“......”
