Chapter 19: Tang Zhong dies

Out of the mountains, Tang Yu walked north for another day, and finally saw a city under a towering mountain shrouded in fog.

Linfeng Mansion City, one of the nine major mansion cities in Tianbei County, is named because of its proximity to Feilai Peak.

In front of the Linfeng City Gate, Tang Yu looked at the majestic city gate and couldn't help but sigh a little. I have lived in this world for sixteen years, and it is the first time I have seen such a majestic city!

Walking on the streets of Linfeng City, Tang Yu was full of novelty, after all, it was the first time he entered the city, and everything he saw was extremely fresh.

Grand Hyatt Restaurant is the largest restaurant in Linfeng City, with an endless stream of guests coming in and out. Tang Yu stood in front of the restaurant, looking at the three-story restaurant, smelling the aroma wafting out of the restaurant, which made Tang Yu's index finger move and unconsciously walked towards the restaurant.

It was noon, there were already many diners, and the shopkeeper saw Tang Yu dressed sloppily, so he wanted to blow him away.

Tang Yu took out a silver ingot from the mountain bandit from his arms and threw it to Xiao Er, who was in a hurry and led Tang Yu into the restaurant.

followed the shopkeeper to the third floor, finally found a place by the window, ordered a table full of dishes, and Tang Yu ate it in a big gulp.

At this time, a few people at the adjacent table not far behind him were talking, which attracted Tang Yu's attention.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this time there are many big names in the Feilai Peak trial, and I heard that the second son of King Li and the lord of Tianxiang will appear in the trial. ”

"The second son, Tang Lin, and the Tianxiang County Lord Tang Wan'er?"

"The second son, Tang Lin, is now eighteen years old, and he is already a cultivator of the Nine Divine Transformation Realm of the Body Refining Realm, and he is the leader of the younger generation of the empire. ”

"What? The Lord of Tianxiang will also come? It is said that when the Lord of Tianxiang County was born, a hundred flowers bloomed and the fragrance floated for a hundred miles, so he was given the name Tianxiang by the Emperor. ”

"And the qualifications of the Tianxiang County Lord are not bad, he is only seventeen years old, and he has already reached the eightfold peak of the Refining Body Realm, and I am afraid that he is not far from the ninth level of the Refining Body Realm. ”

"Well, I also heard that not long after the Tianxiang County Lord reached the eightfold body refining realm, he was favored by an elder of the Tianfu Academy. ”

"Tianfu Academy Palace, one of the five great palaces in the mainland, a first-class force on the mainland! Our Tianyu Empire has been in the Empire for many years, and no one with outstanding talents has entered!"

"Yes! Tang Shu, the king of Yanyou who entered the Tianfu Academy Palace more than forty years ago, the king of Yanyou is peerless, the king-level Tianfeng martial soul is looking down on, and the flame sword body dominates the world. However, when the battle for the throne was about to be won, he was secretly attacked and abolished his martial arts. Although he killed the other party, the other party was powerful and forced the Tianfu Academy to expel King Yanyou. Since then, although ten people from the empire have entered the Tianfu Academy every five years, there is no genius like King Yan You. It's a pity that King Yan You didn't have the support of Tianfu Academy, and in the end, even the throne was taken by the current Tianyu Emperor. More than ten years ago, it was wiped out!"

"Yes, if King Yanyou is still here, how can my Tianyu Empire be angry with the Heavenly Wind Empire and the Blizzard Empire!"

"Shhhh

Hearing this person's reminder, several people had a cold war, looked around, and found that the conversation of several people did not attract the attention of others, so they secretly said that it was dangerous.

"It's not just the two of them who are here today, but also the son of the head of the Tiger Demon Legion, Mo Beiming, is also here. ”

"What? Mo Tongxuan's son, how did he come to Tianbei County?"

Sixteen years ago, Mo Tongxuan informed the world that King Yan would not appear, and the Mo clan would not leave Mobei. Could it be that His Royal Highness King Yan has returned?"

"I haven't heard the news of King Yan yet, but a few days ago, there were rumors that the descendants of King Yan appeared in Tiannan County, and Mo Beiming came here for this. ”

"That's right, yesterday a relative of mine who came back from the county town said that the county guard Li Mojun captured a person from Tiannan County, saying that it was related to the descendants of King Yan. ”

"You said that man, I have also heard, three days ago, he was taken to the county seat, and the county guard ordered him to be hung on the city gate, and it has been three days now, and I am afraid that he will die long ago. Even if Mo Beiming went now, it would be useless. ”

When Tang Yu heard this, it seemed that a flame was burning in his chest. Qian Dong said that he was a descendant of King Yan, and what had to do with him could only be his father Tang Zhong, who had raised his father for sixteen years, and now he was suffering this inhuman crime in the county town, how could Tang Yu not be angry.

Tang Yu stretched out his hand and smashed the square table in front of him, jumped out of the third floor directly, and slammed it on the street. After landing, he ran wildly and went straight to the north gate of Linfeng City.

Although Tang Yu's attack was strong, he did not have a light body martial art, and could only rely on the support of his strong true qi.

When he ran to the north city gate, the generals guarding the city saw Tang Yu from afar. When Tang Yu ran closer, he was about to go up to stop him, Tang Yu was already angry at this time, how could he listen to him, and slapped the guard away with one palm.

When he went out of the city gate, he saw a horse tied to the stakes on both sides of the gate. Tang Yu stepped forward and cut off the tethered horse stake, flew on the horse, and galloped towards the north.

After galloping all night, when Tang Yu's sky was bright, he saw a huge city, which was much bigger than Linfeng City, and the city walls were several meters higher.

When he came to the city wall, Tang Yu looked up, and just saw a person hanging on the head of the city.

At this time, Tang Yu was already angry, and before the soldiers defending the city had noticed, he hurriedly ran to the moat outside the city wall, kicked his feet on horseback, and his body rushed out directly. The ten-meter-wide moat couldn't stop Tang Yu at all.

When he arrived at the base of the wall, Tang Yu kicked his feet, and his body rushed directly towards Tang Zhong, who was bound. It's just that Tang Yu has not practiced the light body exercises, and can only fly more than three zhang high, but there is still a distance of more than one zhang from Tang Zhong, and the city wall is extremely smooth, and the roots have no foothold. Seeing this, Tang Yu was anxious. This time, if he can't successfully rescue his father, I'm afraid that when the soldiers defending the city find out, it will be difficult to rescue his father again.

Tang Yu's heart was racing, his fingers were together, and a white light emanated from Tang Yu's hand, slashing directly at the rope that bound Tang Zhong.

After Tang Zhong's rope broke, his body fell rapidly. Tang Yu's body was also declining at this time, but Tang Zhong's falling speed was obviously faster than Tang Yu's, and in the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Tang Yu.

Tang Yu hurriedly reached out to catch Tang Zhong, and then smashed his fist to the ground to ease the falling speed of the two.

As soon as Tang Yu's feet touched the ground, the shouts of the soldiers guarding the city sounded on the city tower.

"Come on, Tang Zhong has been robbed!"

When Tang Yu heard this shout, he knew that he couldn't delay, so he hurriedly picked up his true qi and flew away towards the outside of the moat.

The whole rescue was smooth, and Tang Yu didn't waste a minute of time. This was also the time when Tang Zhong was hung for four days, and the soldiers defending the city felt that no one would come to save Tang Zhong, so the defense was not as tight as it was at the beginning. Otherwise, when Tang Yu came galloping, he would attract the attention of the soldiers defending the city.

Flying across the moat, carrying his father on his back, he flew onto the horse he was riding, and went away into the distance.

After running for half an hour and running to a hilly area, the horse under Tang Yu neighed and fell directly to the ground, throwing Tang Yu and Tang Zhong out directly.

When Tang Yu got up and looked at the horse, he saw the horse lying on the ground, its hooves twitching, the horse's nose panting, the horse's head lifted lightly twice, and then he fell to the ground and did not move, obviously exhausted by Tang Yu's running all the way.

Tang Yu sighed lightly and planned to step forward to bury the horse, but at this time, there was a rumbling sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and Tang Yu knew that this was the soldier who was chasing after him.

Glancing at the corpse of the horse again, he turned around and picked up his father Tang Zhong and ran forward.

Without the help of the horse, Tang Yu's speed was much slower, but fortunately, this was a hilly area, which also affected the speed of the horses, so Tang Yu walked more than ten miles and got into a mountain forest.

After walking in the mountains and forests for an hour, after making sure that there were no pursuers behind him, Tang Yu found a cave in the mountains and forests and stopped.

It was only then that Tang Yu had time to look at his father behind him.

Tang Yu put Tang Zhong on the ground and reached out to probe Tang Zhong's snort. It's just that at this time, Tang Zhong has no life, and in an instant, Tang Yu's heart is cold to the bottom.

Tang Yu didn't dare to accept this fact, and frantically operated the Blue Emperor Immortal Fingering, desperately transporting the true qi of the wood into Tang Zhong's body. But no matter how Tang Yu ran the exercises, Tang Zhong in his arms showed no signs of coming back to life at all.

Tang Yu hugged Tang Zhong's corpse and cried, he knew that he had brought it all by himself, and it was because of himself that his father died tragically.

He regretted it, he regretted that he didn't follow the official road in the first place, he regretted that he shouldn't have been delayed in the valley for two days.

Tang Yu was sad and indignant in his heart, looking at Tang Zhong's dry face after being exposed to the sun for four days, he couldn't help but think of the sternness of his father when he first taught him archery when he was a child, the anxious look of his father when he was almost eaten by a blind bear when he followed his father into the mountains, the praise of his father when he hit the prey for the first time, and the relief of his father when he shot a tiger for the first time.

Stroking his father's shriveled cheeks, Tang Yu hung tears on his face, and said softly, "Father, it's Yu'er who is sorry for you, it's Yu'er who hurt you." ”

Just as Tang Yu was caressing Tang Zhong's cheeks with both hands, a round thing fell out of Tang Zhong's mouth and rolled to the ground.

Tang Yu only realized at this time that Tang Zhong's mouth had always been open, but the gap between the open was very small.

Tang Yu looked at the round object on the ground and saw a black ring, lying there quietly.

Tang Yu picked up the ring, and when he saw that the ring was extremely smooth, he said in his heart: Is this a relic left by his father?

He put the ring on his hand and looked at his father again, and the tears in his eyes welled up again.

I don't know how long I cried, Tang Yu looked up at the outside of the cave, and saw that it was already dark outside.

Tang Yu turned around, looked at his father's corpse again, and knew that his father could not be resurrected, so he dug a big pit with his hands in the cave and buried Tang Zhong in the cave.

Tang Yu knelt down in front of Tang Zhong's grave, kowtowed three times, raised his head, and said to Tang Zhong's grave with red and swollen eyes, as if he was about to breathe flames

"Father, Yu'er will let those who hurt you go to hell, kneel in front of you, and ask you for their sins. ”

After kowtowing a few more times, Tang Yu walked out of the cave, his face showing that he had never been cold, and looked at Tianbei County in the distance.

Tang Yu turned around and punched the entrance of the cave, sealing the entire cave, and finally marking it. Step out and head towards the county seat of Tianbei.
