This master is fake and cold

With the coming of winter, the weather is getting colder day by day.

At Xishi, the horses hurried through the streets of the capital, and the cold wind roared unscrupulously over every inch of land in the Daqing Dynasty.In this kind of ghost weather, only a very small number of people walk on the street, and they have to come out to suffer for various reasons.Even so, people shrank their necks and sleeves their hands, and wrapped themselves tightly in thick winter clothes, wishing to shrink their bodies, shrink them, and shrink them into a ball.

The vendors on the street also got lazy and used dilapidated door panels to block their stalls. In winter, stall owners were often seen dozing behind them. Perhaps it was because it was too cold today, so they didn’t even see their stalls. with a few.

The crisp horseshoes fell on the bluestone slabs, and the sound of "clack clatter" was endless.It was precisely because there were so few people on the street that the horse under Xishi completely let go of its speed, spread its hooves, and ran without any scruples.Xi Shi was only wearing a thin solid dress, and although she was sitting on a galloping horse, her expression remained normal.The cold wind whistling past her ears, and the freezing temperature in the severe winter did not affect her in any way.

It was not far from the Princess Mansion, and the familiar scenery gradually passed by.Xi Shi's expression brightened, and he involuntarily clenched the reins.

She had just returned from His Majesty, and she had informed her of the date of the meeting, and at the same time, for the sake of insurance, she had borrowed a few people from her.Your Majesty has made it clear that as long as Changle can control these talents, it is not impossible to give them all to her.

And those few people were chosen for her by Xishi after careful consideration.Changle's big wedding is coming soon, and her future situation will only become more dangerous, step by step, like walking on the edge of a cliff, every step risks the risk of being smashed to pieces.Xishi thinks that she is not a good guard, she has her own goals and objectives, it is impossible for her to be by Changle's side all the time.That being the case, she naturally has to take the lead in considering Chang Le's safety.

The downfall of these few people happened to solve her urgent need.

In the early morning, before the sun came out, there was still a hazy mist in the air, which blocked people's sight.Xishi didn't care about this, her eyes were different from others, and the presence or absence of fog had little effect on her.She drove the horse forward for several tens of feet, her eyes fell on the obstacles on the road ahead, her expression was slightly concentrated, and she suddenly tightened the reins.The steed under him neighed, and the tall man stood up.

Xishi leaned on the horse's back calmly, with his legs tightly clamping the horse's belly.Although her movements were abrupt, when the horse recovered from the sudden fright, controlled its figure, and snorted anxiously, with its superb riding skills, she was not thrown off the horse after all.

Xi Shi controlled the mount to rotate a few times on the spot, gently stroked its head, and calmed down its emotions before looking behind the gravel.She had heard people explain in detail before that the streets in the capital were cleaned by special personnel, and there were generally no sharp objects on the neat bluestone slabs, so as not to hurt the pets of the nobles, or affect the horses of the passing business houses.

The latter is easier to say, at most it is just that the cleaners are turned away to see the officials, and the left is just to pay some money.If it's the former, the children of those powerful officials and noble families have never taken the lives of ordinary people seriously.Just a pariah, if you make yourself feel uncomfortable, you will be killed if you are killed, and no one will say anything at all.

People will cherish their lives, so those who do this kind of errands will be very careful when working, and they will scan it once and then again, for fear of missing something.

At this moment, the broken stones scattered on the ground were long and sharp, and they were obviously polished to such a shape on purpose to hurt the horse's hooves.The gravel is covered by the mist, and there is no one on the road, so the speed of the horses will increase appropriately, and the rider will naturally not notice their feet.But this is true for ordinary people, except for Xishi. Her eyes are very different from ordinary people's, coupled with her deliberate precautions, she discovered the abnormal situation at the first time.

"Which force is in front?" Xi Shi raised his voice and asked.

Although her clothes are inconspicuous, there is the logo of the Grand Princess Mansion embroidered on it.This is a well-known secret among the upper-class nobles in Beijing.As the most beloved daughter of the emperor, Changle was rarely hindered by other forces when she was acting.

What's more, if there are well-informed people here, they can tell at a glance the strangeness of the belt hanging around Xi Shi's waist.The phoenix spreads its wings and rises to nirvana, this is Changle's private order.Only those closest to her are eligible to temporarily use this token.It is rumored that anyone holding this token is enough to mobilize any of Changle's subordinates except the four confidant guards.Even Su Yong and Su He had the idea of ​​using this token, but it was only a flash in the pan in a certain incident, and no one saw Chang Le take it out after that.

There was still no movement in the mist.A sullen look appeared on Xi Shi's face, no matter whether the visitor was targeting her or Chang Le, they violated her bottom line.Xishi has a good temper, but it doesn't mean that she can grit her teeth and endure such a provocation.On the contrary, she has never been a person who is afraid of trouble, and she is even less afraid of provoking trouble.

The riding whip in her hand slammed into the air, making a crisp sound of "snap".The horse under the seat had already understood the meaning of its master, let out a long hiss, and galloped up.Its hooves stomped heavily on the ground, and its long mane flew in all directions in an instant, with a speed as fast as lightning, carrying an unstoppable determination.

In the hazy mist, a little black light broke a clear trace.

Xishi's eyes involuntarily showed seven points of contempt, a flash of dancing flame suddenly flashed in her dark pupils, the wet mist, together with the tentative poison arrow, were all burned into purer water vapor, passing through skyrim.

The fog was completely burned by the fire, and the obstacles in the sight seemed to disappear suddenly, which even opened up people's mood a lot.

Xishi didn't just go straight there, she stopped after driving for a dozen steps, looked ahead coldly, and called out expressionlessly: "An Xu."

The man's clear laughter was clean and clear, as if there was no trace of gloom.He sat in a soft sedan chair and opened the curtain to look at her.The servants, grooms or guards around him are all more than seven feet tall and tall.Surrounded by such a group of vicious and cold-faced gods, their master's appearance was made even more handsome.

An Xu said: "The momentum is like a prairie fire, unstoppable, I guessed it right, your ability is fire!"

There was inexplicable joy in his tone, and a bit of childish joy.It seems that just because he guessed this matter correctly is enough to make him feel satisfied.Xishi didn't understand his thoughts, and didn't want to understand, so he just said indifferently: "Please let me go, you and your people are blocking my way."

An Xu didn't expect her reaction to be like this, so he couldn't help being taken aback, and subconsciously followed her gaze to look around at the position he already had.The street they were on was indeed very wide, and it was a main road in the capital, enough to accommodate four riders paralleling each other.But An Xu and his group moved sideways, almost blocking the entire road.Although it is possible to rush over with Yi Xishi's skill, it will still be a little troublesome.She has always hated trouble, so it would be great if An Xu and the others were sensible enough to avoid it by themselves.As for the reason why they are waiting here to wait for her?

Xi Shi expressed no interest.It's just a strange passerby, there is nothing to talk to.What's more, they came from the same place at best, but with such a thin layer of relationship, there is no friendship worth talking about.

In fact, their position has long been doomed, is the enemy rather than the friend.It's just that An Xu hasn't seen her identity clearly yet. The reason why he is so courteous is that there is nothing he can use for her?

Thinking about this, Xi Shi suddenly realized.She is just a servant, so naturally she has no value to be used.When An Xu came here, he tried his best to gain the emperor's trust and became Changle's son-in-law. His choice has revealed his ambition.

The abandoned world seems barren and backward, but it has been closed for thousands of years. In fact, there are many rare resources here.These resources are simply a huge piece of fat for the other Nine Realms, which have too much logging and are extremely scarce in resources, and everyone wants to come up and take a bite.

An Xu is an outsider, he doesn't have enough manpower, or he senses that someone is peeping here in the dark.So he didn't choose to search directly, but took a roundabout route, making good use of the royal family's monstrous power here.As long as he can become a distinguished personage, or even become an emperor?Then in the abandoned world where power is extremely concentrated, he can even mobilize everyone here to mine resources for him, and then transport them back to where he is.It doesn't need to be done by yourself, and it won't be too explicit, risking the anger of the public. I have to say that this is an excellent idea.

Regardless of whether his methods are radical or gentle, there is no doubt that An Xu came here to destroy the peace of the abandoned world and plunder the resources here.This is something Xi Shi and others cannot tolerate.Although Xishi and the others also do not belong to this place, they have a reason to protect this place because of their superiors. They want to replace the guardian, at least temporarily replace the guardian to protect everything here until a new guardian is born. .

"Xishi, we all came from the same place anyway, do you always have such a bad attitude towards your companions?"

Xi Shi frowned slightly, not curious about how he knew his name, and replied quietly: "We are not companions. We have different ways, we will not conspire with each other, and if we don't give way, don't blame me for being rude."

"The way is different, don't you conspire with each other?" An Xu didn't care about what she said behind her at all. The people around him were all experts brought by him from his own power, and he thought he would be more than enough to catch Xi. , so there is quite a bit of self-confidence that the winner is at hand.While talking, he actually laughed out:

"Xishi, it's not because you've been here for a long time that you talk like those savages here, with a self-righteous arrogance and sour smell. What kind of way? What kind of conspiracy? As long as it is beneficial to your own development, you will kill your father. It’s okay for enemies to cooperate together. What kind of etiquette, righteousness and shame, what moral principles, the Nine Realms believes in the survival of the fittest. Those who survive are the strong, and the weak have long been sacrificed in the cruel struggle. Anyone in the Nine Realms Power, as long as you don't work hard to find resources to improve yourself, you will be eliminated sooner or later."

"What does this have to do with me?" Xi Shi remained unmoved.

An Xu looked surprised: "The resources in the Abandoned World are so rich, don't you think the forces behind you won't be tempted? That's good, let's cooperate, and I will contribute. You just need to second some people to help me when I need it. At that time, all the resources I found in the abandoned world will be shared with you."

An Xu thought that the price he offered was generous enough. Although he didn't know which force was behind Xishi, since he knew that the guardian of the Abandoned Realm died and successfully broke through the barrier to enter here, it probably wouldn't be the case. A nameless little force.His current plan is basically on the right track, and Xi Shi and others only occasionally lend him some manpower so that he can implement some extreme measures to speed up the progress of the plan.Just by doing this, he can share [-]% of the resources of the Abandoned World, and he won't be tempted if he doesn't believe it.

Xishi didn't answer, she slowly drew out her long sword.Except for Zunshang and Changle, she tried to ignore everyone else.But today this man is really too noisy and annoying, with a chattering mouth, he almost has the urge to have his tongue cut off.

Xishi glanced forward, and the thick fog rose again.An Xu's ability is water, and it is perfect to use water to create some mist.In the dense fog, the poor passers-by who were few and far between couldn't see the situation in front of them. The figures of An Xu and his group were all hidden in the fog.

The fog did not block Xi Shi's line of sight at all. From a distance, she could already see the stone lion with its teeth and claws in front of the princess mansion.

An Xu doesn't know, and he may not be able to understand that in this world, what can connect people together is not just conflicts of interest and intrigues.There are more people here than in the Nine Realms because of that feeling.It may seem a bit cumbersome and restrained, but it is precisely because of emotional and rational constraints that people know what to do and what not to do.It won't be like a beast, even one's relatives and friends will be killed.

"If you've said enough, get out of the way."

An Xu's eyes widened in disbelief, and he couldn't believe that she rejected his proposal again.He gritted his teeth fiercely. Isn't she satisfied with such a generous condition: "If you are worried that I will turn my face and deny people afterwards, and kill people to silence them, then you don't have to. You should probably guess where I come from. Yes, I come from You should have heard of my father, An Dongming, in the Joyful World Yongle Square. Although the reputation of the Joyful Joyful World is not very good, but our Yongle Square is under the control of our father, who dares to do such a thing, that is Enemy with the entire Yongle Square."

Xi Shi's expression became a little more impatient, and she took another look at the vermilion lacquered gate of the Princess Mansion from a distance. The mount under her seat connected with her master's heart, and she spread her hooves and galloped.

Xishi knew in his heart that although An Xu's words were so beautiful at the moment, in fact, the real situation was well known to each other.If you really cooperate, it is tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger.After squeezing out all their value, An Xu should only think about how to kill people to silence them.As he said, as long as there is interest, even killing the father and the enemy can cooperate.This [-]% resource is enough to convince most forces to cooperate with him.But [-]% of it is free, who doesn't feel pain?Even if they cooperate for profit, it is not uncommon for them to betray each other or turn against each other for profit.

Although the benefits are good, you have to fight for them with your life.

Most people are only blinded by the immediate benefits, and forget to think about the risks behind the benefits.If you seek skin from a tiger, sooner or later you will be eaten by the tiger.
