Outlaw

It's early morning now.

Countless people in this huge Jiang Mansion are already asleep.

But the room where Mu Zhengfeng was located had beautiful scenery and a good location. Sitting next to the balcony on the second floor, you can see the grandeur of the entire Jiang Mansion and the lights of thousands of families outside Jiang Mansion.

Gollum!

Mu Zhengfeng took the wine glass handed over by Xiao Beichen and took a sip of wine.

After a glass of wine, I felt a little more heroic.

"Continued Cup."

Xiao Beichen didn't say much and continued to pour Mu Zhengfeng a glass of wine.

Mu Zhengfeng drank three glasses of wine in a row before he felt satisfied. A pair of eyes always fell on Xiao Beichen, as if he wanted to see Xiao Beichen thoroughly.

After a long time, Mu Zhengfeng finally spoke: "Xiao Beichen, you are better than I thought. How about we drink thirteen cups first?"

Xiao Beichen: "Okay."

The two people are like a grandfather and a grandson.

Thirteen glasses of strong drink in a row.

passionate.

"It's so good! This is the first time in five years that I've had such a good time drinking." Mu Zhengfeng said proudly, "I understand what you want to know. Originally, I didn't plan to tell you these things now. Now that things have reached this point , it doesn’t hurt if I tell you.”

Mu Zhengfeng talked about the past while drinking.

"This matter started from twenty-three years ago."

"Twenty-three years ago, Hua Yunfeng and I were frontline commanders under the Xiao family in Longshan. We went to the Qianshan Snowy Area outside the Huaidong border to decisively fight against foreign enemies. Qianshan Snowy Area, do you know that?"

Xiao Beichen said solemnly: "I know. It is a vast land. Because it is close to the North Pole, it is covered with ice and snow, and the mountains are covered with heavy snow. The ice and snow do not melt all year round. Ordinary people simply cannot survive in the snowy land of thousands of mountains. It has become a land without an owner. Land. And the land in the Qianshan Snow Region is very large, much larger than the entire land in Daxia."

As the young commander of Longshan, he naturally knows these basic land patterns.

Mu Zhengfeng nodded slightly: "Yes, the Qianshan Snowy Land is huge. It is inaccessible and very mysterious. It is a forbidden area. Usually people in Huaidong dare not approach it. And the most mysterious one is Snow Dragon Mountain. That is A treasure land with better Feng Shui than Kunlun. I, Hua Yunfeng, Xiao Qingtian and Xiao Qianlong went to the vicinity of Snow Dragon Mountain to kill foreign enemies. As a result, we encountered something terrible."

"The [-]-strong army we command was actually defeated and blocked by one man. He stopped the [-]-strong army with the strength of one man!"

Xiao Beichen frowned.

One person can stop Longshan Xiao's [-]-strong army? !

What kind of terrifying existence is this?

Although there is also a legend circulating in Beiliang about Xiao Beichen retreating an army of [-] people with a single shout, it has the flavor of deification. Moreover, Xiao Beichen also borrowed other factors back then.

Just like when Zhang Fei drove back a million-strong army at Changbanpo.

Was it Zhang Fei who shouted back?

Yes.

But it was just Zhang Fei who shouted back? Are millions of troops really afraid of Zhang Fei?

of course not.

The million-strong army just saw the thousands of dust rising behind Zhang Yide and thought there was an ambush, so they retreated. When Zhang Yide demolished the bridge, they immediately reacted and continued the pursuit.

Zhang Fei just did a heroic act in that great era and by coincidence.

If Cao Mengde hadn't been worried about an ambush, Zhang Fei would have been killed in minutes.

This was also the reason why Xiao Beichen fought back a hundred thousand soldiers in Beiliang.

Qianshanxueyu, this person, stopped a hundred thousand soldiers with one person's power.

That was really scary.

Xiao Beichen said: "Who is that person?"

Mu Zhengfeng said: "The old master of Xingyue Temple."

"When the old temple master was here, one person was in charge of the temple and arbitrarily ruled the world. Later, the old temple master was severely injured, and there was no second person in the Xingyue Temple who could control the temple alone. Then it was divided into three and became Three palace masters."

Xiao Beichen was frightened when he heard this.

Bull ratio!

This is the true peerless elegance!

He vaguely realized something: "Then the old palace master... what is his origin?"

Mu Zhengfeng said: "He is Mu Ziyan's biological father, Murong Xing."

Xiao Beichen was shocked.

what?

Mu Ziyan's biological father is actually the old master of Xingyue Temple, Murong Xing?

The origin of this identity is too terrifying, right?

Mu Zhengfeng continued: "Murong Xing blocked us in the first place because he didn't want us to go deep into Snow Dragon Mountain. Moreover, Murong Xing and your mother are old acquaintances. They are very familiar with each other. I don't know what the relationship is. What Murong Xing means, That's what your mother meant. In my entire life, I have never seen such an awesome person. One person can stop an army of [-] people. They are all the elites of the Longshan Xiao family."

"Later, we were forced to turn back. Murong Xinghe found me and Xiao Qianlong Xiao Qingtian. He is not a mortal, but he has no airs and is very friendly to us."

"Later, on the way out of Xuelong Mountain, we were ambushed and the whole army was wiped out. All of us thought we were going to die. At this time, Murong Xing came forward again and saved us. This time, those who followed Murong Xing, and your mother."

Xiao Beichen's scalp went numb after hearing this.

How come you don’t know about this past incident?

Dad and grandpa, did they hide it so deeply?

Gollum!

Mu Zhengfeng continued to take a sip of wine: "That was the first time your father met your mother. Later, the two fell in love. Three years later, you were born."

Xiao Beichen was horrified when he heard this.

The figures of mother and father could not help but appear in my mind.

The kind look of my father, the stern and cold look of my mother.

Ever since he was a child, his mother has been extremely indifferent to him.

In more than ten years, my mother has said only a handful of words to me. In Xiao Beichen's impression, his mother doted on his brother and sister very much. Every time there was something delicious and fun, I would give it to my brothers and sisters, completely ignoring Xiao Beichen's feelings.

Every time it’s the birthday of my brother and sister, my mother will carefully prepare gifts for them, hold a birthday party for them, buy cakes, and light candles...

But when it was Xiao Beichen's birthday, there was nothing. My mother didn't even mention it.

Every time I eat, my mother always dotes on her brothers and sisters, but she... has nothing.

For this reason, Xiao Beichen was extremely rebellious and withdrawn when he was a boy.

He is also a human being.

He also longs for his mother's love.

How jealous he was of his older siblings.

There was even a time when he hated himself. I always think that I did something wrong, which is why my mother dislikes me so much. For this reason, he worked harder and harder than anyone else. Everything he does... is nothing more than hoping to be recognized and favored by his mother one day.

But until now, her mother doesn't care about herself.

As a child, he hated his mother.

Why...do this to yourself?

Why?

Later, Xiao Beichen gradually grew up. Although the resentment in my heart is still there, there is no hatred anymore.

Because, no matter what...she is her mother.

Even if you treat yourself badly, you can't change this identity.

Your skin and hair is from your parents.

However, this is the eternal pain in Xiao Beichen's heart!

Even when the Longshan Xiao family perished, my mother never cared about her own safety, life or death...

Looking back on these past events, Xiao Beichen's eyes became moist.

Mu Zhengfeng noticed Xiao Beichen's change in mood and said slightly, "What's wrong with you?"

Xiao Beichen took a sip of wine: "It's nothing, old man, please continue talking."

Mu Zhengfeng said: "What happened that time was a secret. Xiao Qianlong didn't tell anyone. Outsiders didn't know about the tragic death of a hundred thousand Longshan troops on Xuelong Mountain. But your father and your mother fell in love. After we left, life gradually recovered. Calm. Your mother also left Snow Dragon Mountain and followed your father to Longshan to settle down."

"It wasn't until thirteen years ago that great changes occurred within the Xingyue Temple. Murong Xing seemed to have been severely injured and stepped down. At that time, Murong Xing came to Longshan Xiao Family overnight to find your mother. And I happened to be there too."

"That time, Murong Xing came with his nine-year-old daughter. That nine-year-old daughter was Mu Ziyan."

"Murong Xing wanted to foster Mu Ziyan under your mother's knees. Your mother refused and chose me. Although Murong Xing was reluctant, he still agreed. Finally, he blessed Mu Ziyan with two seals and sealed her nine times at the same time. All the memories before the age of [-]. I took Mu Ziyan south to Zhonghai. You should know what happened next. I put Mu Ziyan under the knees of Mu Tianhao and Zhang Lan. "

After hearing these words, Xiao Beichen fell into silence for a long time.

Before this, Xiao Beichen didn't expect Mu Ziyan's background to be so big.

After a while, Xiao Beichen finally came to his senses: "So, what is Mu Ziyan's real name?"

Mu Zhengfeng said: "Murong Ziyan!"

Xiao Beichen nodded: "What happens next?"

Mu Zhengfeng said: "Then later, Murong Xing disappeared. But that old guy Baishi became suspicious. He has been investigating me, but no definite evidence was found. It wasn't until five years ago, when your Longshan Xiao family defeated Langya. Shan. He was criticized verbally and written, and his reputation plummeted... You are the one who has experienced this, so you should know."

Xiao Beichen said solemnly: "I know. I personally participated in the battle of Langya Mountain. I was also the deputy commander on the front line. In that battle, the defeat was strange. Moreover, all the decline of our Xiao family in Longshan was due to the defeat of Langya Mountain. It started in Asan.”

Mu Zhengfeng sighed: "Yes, Langya Mountain is not a mysterious place like Snow Dragon Mountain, a land of thousands of mountains. How could it lead to the defeat of the powerful Longshan Xiao family's army? But the reasons are all in the past tense. No one has mentioned it yet. What's more, with the status of the Longshan Xiao family in Huaidong back then, no one would dare to say anything even if they were defeated. Not to mention arousing huge public opinion and being criticized by Huaidongkou. If I don’t believe it if there isn’t a huge force behind this.”

That was the pain in Xiao Beichen's heart.

The man behind the scenes?

That's for sure.

It's just that Xiao Beichen doesn't know yet.

call!

He took a sip of wine and said, "Old man, just tell me what happened next."

Mu Zhengfeng said: "After the Longshan Xiao family defeated Langya Mountain, three major events happened immediately, which led to the demise of the Longshan Xiao family. The first of them was the divorce of Qin Aoxue, the Qin family of the first sword-making family in Huaidong. This proud woman of heaven came to the house to break off the engagement in public, which was the first step for Huaidong Province to trample the Longshan Xiao family. After the breakup of the engagement, the Longshan Xiao family was destroyed not long after. And you were also killed because of the Longshan Xiao family. The top executives inside leaked the secret, and were beaten to death by Luo Tianyang and Ximen God of War at Jianmen Pass. Finally, he headed north to Kunlun."

"Later, your father found me. He hoped that I could marry Mu Ziyan to you and complete the marriage for you."

Xiao Beichen was stunned: "Did my father come to find you?"

Mu Zhengfeng said: "Your father said it was your mother's wish. But you were in Beiliang at that time... It must have been that your father went to Beiliang later to explain the situation to the empress. Only then did the empress let you go south to Zhonghai to get married. .”

"This is the entire content of your engagement."

Xiao Beichen's face was distorted.

This engagement...is this what the mother means?

This should be the only thing that my mother did for me when I grew up.

Mother, mother, you don't like me so much.

Usually he doesn't even bother to look at me.

Why do you want to arrange this engagement for me?

Mu Zhengfeng took a sip of wine and patted Xiao Beichen's shoulder: "Beichen, I probably know something about you and your mother. I know what you are thinking, but no matter what, I have something to say. For you - poor parents in the world, no mother wants the best for her son. Maybe there is some unsolvable knot between you. As long as it is untied, it will be fine."

Xiao Beichen smiled sadly: "Old man, you are not me, so how can you know the pain in my heart."

Mu Zhengfeng sighed: "But I know your mother. She is not that kind of cool person. Besides, do you know your mother's real name?"

Xiao Beichen shook his head.

pitiful.

He is a son, but he doesn’t even know his mother’s name.

Yes, she never told herself her name.

My father and grandfather didn’t say anything.

Everyone calls her...Alan.

An unspeakable sadness surged into my heart.

It broke our hearts.

After a while, Xiao Beichen raised his head and looked at Mu Zhengfeng: "Tell me, what is my...mother's name?"
