Heaven and earth return to one

When Han Luo and Qin Shaojun saw Li Yunke bowing his head in thought, they didn't dare to disturb him. They put the food away and stood aside to wait.

After a while, Li Yunke reached out and grabbed a steamed bun, bit off a small half, and said vaguely: "Bring people in."

"..." Qin Shaojun whispered, "Why don't we see you after eating?"

Li Yunke said: "It's not good to let people wait."

Han Luo tried his best to flatten the corners of his lips, "Master, the young master may think that you are somewhat... ashamed."

Li Yunke: "..."

Qin Shaojun ran out very shamelessly, "Subordinates, go announce people now!"

"I'm ashamed, aren't I?" Li Yunke took another bite of steamed buns, looking at Han Luo while humming, "Next time I'll leave it to Shao Jun to do something like running Shura Mountain, so that you can have a good time with him." Let’s talk about feelings.”

"It's the young master who thinks that it's not the subordinates..." Han Luo argued aggrievedly, halfway through the conversation, he remembered that it was very wrong to push Qin Shaojun out at this time, and immediately admitted his mistake, "The subordinates know their mistakes, the master has a lot, please forgive me Subordinate this time!"

Li Yunke took a sip of clear soup and stuffed the last piece of steamed bun into his mouth, "It depends on your mood."

Han Luo: "..."

"Master, the messenger has arrived." Qin Shaojun reported outside the account.

Li Yunke wiped his hands and said, "Please come in."

There were three people who came, and two followers were blocked by Qin Shaojun, and only one envoy was let in.

The envoy was different from most people in the northern desert, he was thin and small, and the thick animal skin cloak was draped over him, which seemed to crush him.He looks like he is in his 40s and doesn't know much about martial arts, but his eyes are shrewd.

"I have met Prince Chengning Duan." The envoy cupped his fists and saluted Li Yunke respectfully.

Li Yunke sat behind the temporarily placed table, did not get up, nodded and said: "The messenger came, why?"

Not even asking the envoy's name, which is actually very rude, but the envoy was not angry, and with a smile on his face, he said: "Prince Duan, my king sent a villain to negotiate a deal with you to settle the issue between the two parties. A stalemate."

Li Yunke supported his chin with his hands on the case, and said leisurely: "How did Changlu know that I want to solve it? Maybe I still think it's good to just waste it like this."

"Prince Duan, don't be joking, that General Yuan may be able to wait, and so may the emperor of your country," the envoy said, deliberately slowing down his speech a lot, "Only you, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait." ?”

Before Li Yunke said anything, Han Luo's face changed first.

"Oh?" Li Yunke raised his hand, signaled Han Luo to be calm, and said, "I thought Changlu had forgotten that he had sent someone to harm me. It turns out that he has a very good memory, so how can he still have the face to come with me?" I talk about business?"

The envoy smiled, "My lord guessed well, Prince Duan already knew that those killers came from Beimo, otherwise he wouldn't have kept friends with Cang Xun."

Li Yunke said: "So the hatred between Changlu and me is very deep, do you think I will be willing to negotiate business with him?"

"The killer came back that day and mentioned that Prince Duan was indeed injured by a hidden weapon. As for why you survived, my king is still puzzled. I can only speculate that you were blessed by the true god to escape this calamity." The messenger calmly said, "Your life is saved, but the poison has not been cured, right? Prince Duan, three-step killing is a rare poison in the world, even if there is only a little bit left in the body, it will kill you sooner or later. You still have to suffer, and you must have already experienced the feeling of it, right?"

Han Luo clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could knock this person to the ground and force him to reveal the whereabouts of the antidote.

Qin Shaojun, who had been listening outside the tent for a long time, also came in, his handsome face was rarely covered with frost, and his eyes were rare cold.

Only Li Yunke himself seemed indifferent, and said in a relaxed tone: "So what Changlu took out is the antidote for the three-step killing?"

The messenger nodded, "Prince Duan is wise."

"Tell me, what Changlu wants from this king."

The messenger turned his eyes, then quickly lowered his head, and said: "Prince Duan must be aware that the felon that my king has been chasing for many years has fled to Chengning territory. He once asked the emperor of your country to help find him, but he has not been found yet. I heard that Prince Duan is very wise, and I believe that you must find the person he wants in exchange for the antidote to the three-step killing."

Li Yunke rubbed his chin, "How do you know that I can find someone who can't be found by the emperor? This sounds like a time-consuming and labor-intensive job. If all the hard work is in vain, wouldn't my work be in vain? Not good, not good .”

Only at this moment did cracks appear in the emissary's calmness, and he raised his head slightly to glance at Li Yunke, and said, "Prince Duan, do you want to die?"

Li Yunke laughed and said: "Whether I want to be happy with myself, can Changlu care?"

The messenger was almost choked by his words, his mouth was half-opened, and he didn't think of what to say next for a while.

"Chang Lu is asking me for peace now, so please beg for help, and don't play threats with me here." Li Yunke waved his hand, "Young Master, see off the guests."

The envoy didn't leave, but lowered his head again, and said in a suppressed voice, "Prince Duan, don't pretend to be stupid anymore, my king actually knows that there is no need to look for him, he is in your hands."

Li Yunke didn't speak, but shook his head at Qin Shaojun who came over to inquire.

The messenger chuckled lightly and said, "The one who helped the prisoner escape that day was your concubine, Ziming taught Nangong the leader?"

Li Yunke narrowed his eyes slightly to conceal the murderous intent in his eyes at that moment.

There was silence in the tent for a while, until Li Yunke picked up the teacup at hand and took a sip of the cold tea.He tapped his finger on the wall of the cup, and when the hostility in his heart was suppressed, he opened his mouth and said, "Changlu knows a lot. If I want to ask him where he got it from, I'm afraid he won't know it." Say it?"

"The leader of Nangong didn't pretend to be disguised that day. As long as you have the heart to investigate, it will not be difficult to find out the results." The messenger regained his composure, but his palms were sweating.

Li Yunke put down his teacup and said, "Changlu knows a lot, but this king is not ignorant."

The messenger quietly waited for him to continue speaking.

"He is looking for Duduo Dulong and his brother for the God Seal of the Desert, right?" Li Yunke said, "Everyone is in my hands, so where do you think the God Seal will be?"

The messenger met Li Yunke's eyes for the second time, and an inexplicable chill ran down his spine.

"As far as I know, every 20 years in Beimo, you will have a big sacrifice to commemorate the oasis given to you by the eagles of your ancestors. The big sacrifice lasts for three days and three nights, and the seal of the Great Desert, which symbolizes royal power, must be placed in the middle of the altar during this period. Otherwise, it will be considered disrespectful to the gods, am I right?" Li Yunke slowly stood up and walked towards him, "I also know that this year is just in time for the great sacrifice, and it is September... which day in September? I can’t remember the date, after all, there are only half a year left, so Chang Lu has gone crazy?”

The envoy felt cold all over his body under Li Yunke's approach, so he could only grit his teeth and force himself not to retreat.

"Half a year, I ask myself if I can wait. As for whether Changlu can wait, then I don't know." Li Yunke smiled faintly, bypassing him and leaving the tent.

"Prince Duan!" The envoy hurriedly chased him out.

Li Yunke didn't stop, and didn't even turn his head. "This king said, you have to beg for help. I don't like your appearance. But if the two countries don't kill each other, this king will let you go back." Tell Changlu, bring the antidote first, and we can talk about the rest."

The messenger watched his back disappear among the border troops in the distance, angrily called two followers, and left with a shake of his sleeves.

The sky was bright, and Han Luo, who had been out all night, returned to Li Yunke's tent.

"How?" Li Yunke in the tent stayed up all night, watching the battle report sent back from the edge of the desert.

Han Luodao: "The subordinates followed the three of them all the way to Xiaozhou City on the border. After they entered the city, they changed into the clothes of traders and stayed in an inn. Someone came to look for them around midnight. It should be that Chang Lu originally settled down in the city. The spies have not been detected by us yet."

"We don't like to slaughter the city, so it's not surprising that we can't find out." Li Yunke said, "Then, how do they exchange news with Changlu?"

Han Luo took the glass of water Qin Shaojun handed over with a smile, and said, "Xinying, my subordinates saw that they wrote a note and put it in a small wooden tube, and tied it to an eagle's foot."

"The eagle is the god of desert people. In order to win people's hearts, General Yuan specially ordered the people below him not to hunt and kill eagles, which gave Chang Lu an opportunity." Li Yunke moved his sore neck, "But it's okay , I just want to see what Changlu will say next."

Qin Shaojun murmured: "Changlu really found out so easily that the one who rescued Duduo Dulong was the Nangong leader?"

"I don't really believe it. I've asked the brothers over there to pay attention to those guys, to see if they will come into contact with anyone else." Han Luo gulped down a glass of water, "Is there honey in the water?" ? You are so kind, Young Master!"

Qin Shaojun snatched the empty cup from him embarrassingly, "Okay, it's getting late, go and have a rest! And the master, too, waited all night for this matter, won't it be the same when you wake up? It's really heartbreaking to not know how to cherish yourself even though you're not in good health."

Li Yunke looked at Han Luo, and teased, "All these years, I still don't know that Shaojun is a nagging one. Han Luo, you will have to suffer in the future."

Han Luo chuckled, "This subordinate thinks it's good."

"..." Qin Shaojun blushed, and didn't understand why he was blushing. He said anxiously, "Master, if you don't sleep, your subordinates will write to Master Nangong, saying that you are seriously poisoned, and let us hide it from him!"

"Sleep, sleep now." Li Yunke surrendered, sighing and sighing, "The child is getting older, I can't control it anymore..."

Qin Shaojun: "..."
