Chapter 244

After speaking, the delicate little hand pinched the invisibility technique, and Xiaomeng's entire body disappeared immediately, leaving only Lake and Eliza, only to hear Xiaomeng's proud voice in the air, saying: Brother, mother, what do you think? As soon as the words fell, Xiaomeng's figure appeared again.

Lake nodded at Eliza, both of them felt that there should be no problem with Xiaomeng going, so Eliza said with concern: Xiaomeng, you have to be careful along the way! Xiaomeng nodded obediently, and said: Don't worry, mother, and then rolled her eyes, and said: Why don't I save my brother and go out with my mother! After speaking, he looked at Lake and Eliza with joy.

Eliza sighed and said: Your brother has been poisoned, and I have not practiced martial arts, going together will only drag you down, it is not as convenient for you to move alone, besides, your stealth technique can only be invisible to you alone, and we can't be invisible, I'm afraid we will be discovered before we leave the city gate.

Xiaomeng also heard that his own stealth technique could only make himself invisible, and if it was used on others, it would not be effective, and now it can only be like this.

Xiaomeng pondered for a moment, then nodded firmly, squeezed his little hand tightly, and said: Brother, mother, I will definitely find someone to save you! Eliza stroked Xiaomeng's hair, and said softly: We all believe that Xiaomeng can do it, we will wait for you here, be careful along the way! Xiaomeng nodded, and then looked at Lake and Eliza one last time, and used all the spiritual power of his body to break the iron railing on the window, and then got out of it, and disappeared from the sight of Lake and Eliza in the blink of an eye.

Speaking of not worrying about Xiaomeng, that's fake, after all, Xiaomeng is just a child, how can parents not worry, but even if Xiaomeng doesn't find Renault, then forget it, at least Xiaomeng has escaped, and it would be better if he could find Renault.

Xiaomeng used the technique of stealth and silently set off out of the Burning Mountain Pass to find Renault.

Lake tried his best to support his body, using the cultivation technique taught by Li Qing, hoping to absorb the aura of heaven and earth and expel the poison from his body, but the poison of the demon clan was too powerful, no matter how good Lake was, he still couldn't gather a trace of aura, and even his head felt groggy.

When Eliza saw her son working so hard, she asked with concern: "Lake, what do you think?" Lake shook his head and said: This poison is so powerful, I can't gather a little spiritual power at all, my body is empty, and I can't expel the poison from my body at all. Eliza stretched out her hand to wipe the beads of sweat from Lake's forehead, and said pityingly: Lake, you can rest first, and then work after a while! Lake nodded, knowing that this poison might not be able to gather spiritual power for a while, so he closed his eyes and rested for a while.

During this time, Apello's soldiers also came to patrol several times, but Eliza's clever disguise did not notice that a child was missing from the three.

At this time, General Luo Xiu and all the generals were in the barracks, carefully studying a weapon, that is, the Yanlong War Halberd held by Lake, in the battle outside the Lieshan Pass that day, Lake was holding the Yanlong War Halberd, invincible, there was no Apelo soldier who could block its edge, and now it fell into the hands of General Luo Xiu, so it was natural to study it carefully.

I saw that the whole body of the war halberd was jet black, one end was filled with a shining spear head, and the other end was a crescent-shaped blade, one on the left and one on the left, connected with the long blade through a small branch, the middle of the long blade was a wide blood groove, and the body of the spear was carved with a red dragon with fangs and claws, lifelike, as if it was about to break out of the body, break through the air, and the crescent blades on the left and right sides were engraved with extremely complex spells.

Everyone gathered around this halberd, and they were all amazed, exuding a powerful momentum, as if there was an invisible force swirling around it, and people couldn't get close at all.

General Luo Xiu looked at this Yanlong War Halberd, his eyes showed greed, it was really uncomfortable that such a divine weapon could not be used for himself.

Such a divine soldier is really lovely, General Luo Xiu sighed and said: Such a divine soldier is really rare in the world, I think even if it is an artifact, it is nothing more than that! The general looked at the Yanlong War Halberd standing in front of him, and said: I didn't expect to destroy my 40,000 army at the sight of such a weapon, it is really incredible! General Luo Xiu looked at the Yanlong War Halberd in front of him, and said with a sigh: It's a pity that this Yanlong War Halberd can't be used by us at all, and we can't even move it even when we get close, let alone wave this Yanlong War Halberd! Then his expression turned cold, and he said gloomily: Even if we can't use it, we can't put this weapon back into the hands of the Dajie Empire! The general replied: "Yes, if there are still people in the Dajie Empire who can use this weapon, then the threat to us will be great, and we must not let this weapon fall into their hands! After deciding, since we can't destroy this Yanlong War Halberd, we will hide it tightly in the barracks and prevent it from returning to the Dajie Empire.

At this time, Helen was standing alone in the Lei family's general's mansion, secretly sad in her heart, and deep in her heart was at war between heaven and man, and the contradictions were painful.

I was in the Thunder General's Mansion, and when I was with Lake and the others, it was the happiest time, there was no pressure and pain, panic, only happiness, laughter and safety, everything was like being in heaven, but I was the person of the killer's secret meeting, and I was incompatible with Lake.

And Lake is even more affectionate to himself, and he is even more protective of himself, gentle and considerate, for fear that he will be unhappy, and he is like a princess, being held in the palm of his hand.

Whether what she did was right or wrong, on the one hand, was the terrifying dark envoy, the terrifying voice and aura had been deeply rooted in her heart, and she couldn't resist it at all, it was an impact that had been formed for a long time, and it could not be changed for a moment.

On the other hand, it is the care and care of the Lake family, and they can enjoy all the beautiful things that can only be felt in their dreams in their home.

Thinking of this, Helen couldn't help but shed tears of sadness and remorse, she hated why she was so weak, and she couldn't raise a trace of resistance in the face of the dark envoy, and actually poisoned the Lake family.

A slight cool breeze blew through, blowing Helen's tears into the distant sky.

Helen looked at the empty houses around her, the Lei family's mansion was so bleak and desolate, completely devoid of the previous warm and happy atmosphere, as if everything that people missed had disappeared with the wind and never returned.

Why would she be so ruthless and destroy all the good things with her own hands, Helen asked herself over and over again, and couldn't help but secretly hate herself, hating that she would succumb to the obscenity of the dark envoy, and did not dare to resist at all.

If I had been able to resist at the beginning, the outcome might have been different.

Thinking of this, Helen's face couldn't help but become firm, and she slowly left the Lei family's mansion, and her black figure blended into the dark night.

Seven days is a long time, but it's too short for Lake.

Within seven days, Lake tried his best to gather aura and expel the poison from his body, but he was unable to do so, and he couldn't use the cultivation aura at all, and Lake couldn't help but feel disheartened.

I don't know what's wrong with Xiaomeng now, and I don't know if the news has reached his father's place.

On the seventh day, the weather had just dawned, and the first light of dawn shone into the cell, and the originally dark cell seemed to be bright, and the slightest warmth flowed in the cell, but she did not feel the slightest warmth for Eliza, but her heart was cold, because today was the day of her son Lake's execution, and after today, it would be heaven and man forever, and they could not see each other.

Eliza's eyes were filled with tears, and she forced herself to calm down and said to Lake: "Child, this time, we must not lose the honor of our Lei family and the Dajie Empire!" Lake nodded firmly, and said: Mother, don't worry, even if I lose my life, I will not lose the honor of our Lei family and the motherland! At this time, more than a dozen Apelo soldiers walked in from outside the cell, looked at Lake coldly, and shouted: Tie him up, pull him out to the square! The eyes of those Apelo soldiers all showed awe in their eyes, and the divine power outside the Burning Mountain Pass was still deeply in their hearts.

Lake reluctantly stood up, but his face was only unyielding, and his body still exuded the dignity of being a strong man, which was the momentum that had been tempered by thousands of tempers, which was daunting.

The Apelo soldiers emboldened themselves and rushed up to tie up Lake strongly, fearing that Lake would suddenly attack.

Lake took one last look at his mother, who was taken out of the cell by the Apelo soldiers, and was still so calm when he saw that Lake was about to die, and he couldn't help but be convinced.

Even as an enemy, I can't help but admire his indomitable spirit.

When Eliza was left alone in the entire cell, Eliza could no longer control her emotions, and heartbroken tears fell like raindrops, how to say, Lake is also his own son, no matter how strong he is, now that his son is going to be executed, how can he not be sad.

Eliza wept and said, "Son, go all the way, your mother will definitely come to accompany you, you will not be alone on the road, this part of the road, you have to walk well!" After saying that, the whole person threw herself on the haystack of the cell, crying incessantly, and the tears of sadness drenched the haystack.

Lieshan Square is the largest square in Lieshan Pass, located in the middle of Lieshan Pass, and is also the market gathering place of Lieshan Pass.

Lake was tied to a stretcher, dragged by several horses, through the long and wide streets, at this time Lake couldn't move at all, and he couldn't gather any spiritual power on his body, the poison of the demon world was really powerful, he could only be tied to the stretcher, only his eyes showed unyielding, even if he was captured, his bloody heart did not give in at all.

The people of Lieshan Pass have crowded the entire square, and their mood is also grief-stricken, but as ordinary people, there are no weapons in their hands, how can they be the fierce soldiers of Abero, there were also people who resisted, but they were quickly suppressed by Abero soldiers, and the people who participated were even more dead and had no place to be buried.

When the carriage dragging Lake arrived at Lieshan Square, the surroundings immediately fell silent, and there was silence, except for the sound of heavy breathing and sobbing and sadness.

The coachman who pulled the horse cut the rope on Lake's body, and walked to the execution table, the eyes of the people around flashed with tears, and they cried one after another, Lake was executed to defend the country, how could they not be saddened, General Renault's family, that one was not hot-blooded and loyal, and dedicated to the country, but now they ended up like this.

With a cruel grin, the Executioner immediately pulled Lake up to the execution table, on which was a thick hemp rope with loops in it, a knife full of assorted knives, and a sharp axe on it.

Lake slowly swept over all the torture instruments in front of him, and his face did not show a trace of fear at all, but was firm and fearless, with a generous face to righteousness, without taking everything in front of him in his eyes at all.

Under the signal of General Luo Xiu, who was sitting on the main seat, the executioner next to him announced loudly: Before today's execution of Lake, all the torture instruments on the stage will be used, and anyone who dares to resist will get the same fate as Lake! Then, the executioner's black eyes flashed with a cruel look, staring at Lake, and said: Unless you kneel down, beg for mercy, and tell everyone that you will always be loyal to the Apelo Empire and break away from the Dajie Empire, maybe the marshal will pity you, then we may be able to give you a good time! Lake showed no fear at all, the only thing left on his face was unyielding and disdain for the executing soldiers, as if he was facing something trivial and had nothing to do with his own life.

The soldier who executed him put the hemp rope around Lake's neck, and the people of Dajie in the square under the stage couldn't help but make a noise and sob.

Everyone could only be bystanders, everyone, including the soldiers who were executed, all the Dajie civilians in the audience, and the Apelo soldiers. No one can change this fateful move.

Lake's hands and feet were tied, his face was covered with blood, his heart was beating rhythmically, his eyes were resolute, and he bravely faced the soldiers who were executed, as if he had come this far as a matter of course.

On the execution table, four fierce executioners tightly wrapped a rope around Lake's neck and hung him from a wooden post.

All the Apelo soldiers standing around shouted in unison: Kill him, kill him!

Lake, once a legendary mercenary of the Skyfire Mercenary Regiment, his strength is extraordinary, and he even killed more than 20,000 Apollo soldiers in one move, and countless soldiers died under his Yanlong Battle Halberd, but now he was hanging on a wooden pillar, shaking weakly.

Lake's face gradually turned blue, his eyes began to bulge, full of bloodshots, his neck strangled by the rope suddenly became bloody, and his tongue involuntarily stretched out, terrifying.

When the Apero soldiers saw this, they couldn't help but cheer loudly, as if such a cruel scene brought out the most ferocious beast in their bodies, and made them extremely excited.

The soldiers knew that everything was just beginning, and that more excitement was to come, and seeing what was going on would make them even more excited.

However, as time passed, the Lake hanging on the wooden pillar never snorted, and his eyes still revealed the unyielding determination that could not be defeated, and the soldiers only felt that the Lake in front of them was less and less like an enemy, but a hot-blooded man with iron bones.

Warriors of flesh and blood like them, suddenly, the whole square was silent, so quiet that even the sound of everyone's breathing could be heard.

The Apelo soldiers, the executioners, all secretly wondered how long Reker could hold on, and how long he would be in pain.

And the surrounding Dajie people couldn't help but look at the tears, their eyes contained tears to look at Lake on the stage, and some couldn't bear to watch it, and their hearts were even more sad and sad.

The executioner looked at Lake coldly, as if he was looking at a corpse, and then turned his head to look at General Luo Xiu, under the signal of General Luo Xiu, knowing that he had been hanging for a long time, he quickly reached out and cut the rope that hung Lake.

Ryker fell directly from the wooden pillar, his face slammed into the stage, blood flowed down Ryker's face, and cheers suddenly rang out all around, these were the cheers of those Apelo soldiers, the bloodthirsty nature of human beings was undoubtedly exposed, which made them even more excited.

The executioner walked up to Lake's side, looked at his bloody face, and said in a dark voice: Lake, are you comfortable? If you want to die happily, kneel up and kiss our Marshal Luo Xiu's boots, you won't suffer, why don't you hurry up and lick our Marshal 's boots! Lake slowly stood up, straightened his waist, looked at General Luo Xiu coldly, spit a mouthful of water, spit on General Luo Xiu's body, and said in his mouth: Phew! General Luo Xiu shouted angrily: Carry him up! The executioners immediately carried Lake over, put Lake on the wooden table where the execution was carried out, and tied Ryker's limbs and head tightly to the hand-cranked turntable with a rope, and as the executioners shook the hand-cranked turntable, the rope became tighter and tighter, and Lake's whole body seemed to be staggered, and he could clearly hear the sound of the dislocation of the limbs and bones, and the pain was not at all endurable by ordinary people.

All the people on the stage seemed to feel the same way, as if the torture was used on them, and some of them couldn't bear to look at it and turned their heads one after another.

Lake wanted to cry out in pain, but he gritted his teeth and held back, he always remembered in his heart that he was a citizen of the Dajie Empire, and he must not show the slightest expression of submission in front of foreigners, the pain flowing in his body was so obvious, but compared to Helen's betrayal, all this was nothing, and the spiritual pain was always more torturous than the physical one.

The executioner looked at the painful Lake, and said with a hideous smile: "It's very comfortable, while being clear-headed, you can enjoy this criminal law to the fullest! Haha! Lake looked at the executioner angrily, without the slightest intention of giving in, seeing that Lake was so tenacious, the executioner smiled gloomily, and took out a red-hot iron bar from a furnace, which was extremely high, and when it was burned on the body, it must be skin and flesh, and the pain was unbearable.

The executioner slowly pressed the red-hot iron bar against Ryker's body, and immediately hissing and the smell of burnt meat, the people had already turned their heads to look at it, even the Apelo soldiers couldn't bear to look at it, and some of the soldiers also turned their heads.

Such torture, Lake gritted his teeth, beads of sweat the size of beans fell from his forehead, but he still clenched his teeth, did not make a sound, did not scream at all.

At this time, I don't know which one of the people sang the battle song of the Fire Legion in the square, this war song is sung by almost every person who lives in Lieshan Pass, the voice is so heroic and tragic, revealing the iron bones and fierce loyalty of the man.

As a result, more and more people sang it, and all the people began to sing this bloody war song loudly.

The heroic soldiers stood up, their blood boiling, and that was their sincerity from their hearts! They used their own blood and flesh to build the walls of the city to defend the motherland! The heroic soldiers let out an earth-shattering roar, and the flames of war burned around them, but they could not stop their firm steps in the slightest! The soldiers braved the enemy's artillery fire and marched forward in the rain of swords and swords, even if they were crushed to pieces, they did not hesitate to drain every drop of blood and sweat on their bodies, just to protect the homeland and land they loved! The high and mournful singing conveys the blood of every Dajie Empire, and they will not give in under the iron hooves of the enemy, and the song echoes in the square and cannot be dispersed for a long time.

Even if the Apelo soldiers and those generals saw such a situation, they couldn't help but be secretly frightened, if every soldier and civilian of the Dajie Empire was like this, then the Dajie Empire would be invincible.

The loud military song reached Lake's ears, and it made Lake not succumb to the obscenity of the executioners.

The Apelo soldiers immediately ordered the people to stop singing, but there was nothing they could do, and all the people were so obliged that they waited until the singing had died down, and then they calmed down.

The executioner looked at the anguished Lake, who looked pained, and said: "It's better to admit your mistake quickly, so that you can get rid of it as soon as possible, and quickly admit your mistake!" Lake just looked at the executioner unyieldingly and didn't say a word.

Seeing Lake's expression, the executioner couldn't help but smile gloomily, and took the various execution knives on the wooden table, and now it is already the last step, that is, digging the intestines and breaking the stomach, this knife goes down, I'm afraid Lake will definitely die.

The executioner said to Lake: "Just say "spare me", and we'll give you a good time, and we won't let you suffer in the slightest!
