Twilight War

Chapter 34 Indus Dream Broken

This world is boring, talking about all kinds of things in the world of mortals, it is better to talk about steamed lamb and steamed deer tail in detail for a thousand or eight hundred times.

01

The sea was covered with fog.

Zichen looked at the letter in his hand. It had been six days since Si Xuerou was buried in Jiushan, and the Huangxuan family was ready to return to Donghuang.

Si Tianming added water to the copper carved drain, this job took too much patience, but Si Tianming did it quite leisurely, adjusting the dripping water without rushing.

"Zichen, your teacher in Jinling is Wang Zhiwu, right?" Si Tianming said to Zichen behind him while adding water.

"Yes, it is indeed Mr. Wang." Zichen said.

"I heard that Emperor Changgeng wanted him to teach some princes, but he pushed him away, saying that he was not good at teaching. Now he is working as an editor in the Confucian History Building in Chang'an." Si Tianming put down the copper pot and stood in front of Zichen. take a seat.

"I'm going to Chang'an this time to meet your husband, so I'll be kind to you." Si Tianming rolled up his sleeves and said, "I heard that Wang Zhiwu is called a 'Ghost Confucian', and I don't know what kind of person it is. .”

"Alright. It's really time to meet up." Zichen said.

"But this Wang Zhiwu is so powerful, I don't think you're smart enough to learn." Si Tianming sighed pretentiously and looked at Zichen and said.

"Mr. Wang is very talented." Zichen smiled and said, "It's just that he knows I'm stupid, so he teaches less."

"Since I know you are stupid, I should teach you more." Si Tianming shook his head and said.

Zichen looked at Si Tianming, he knew that Si Tianming was actually worried about him.The road here is not easy to walk, but the road back to Donghuang may be even more difficult.

"Have you decided to help which prince?" Si Tianming said leisurely looking at the mist that filled the window.

"I never thought about it." Zichen said, "The last time I saw those princes was ten years ago. At that time, the Seventh Prince hadn't even been born yet."

"But you always think about it." Si Tianming said: "When you go to Chang'an this time, many people will stare at you. Everyone will want to know which prince's camp you will stand in."

"Historically, the Huangxuan family's iron cavalry can't compete with the Huaihe River, but the support of the Huangxuan family for Prince Donghuang has always been able to determine who will finally sit in that seat."

"Emperor Chang Geng was just a concubine back then, but after marrying your aunt Huang Xuan Liyou, he immediately became the first choice for the courtiers to stand in line." Si Tianming opened several letters in front of Zichen while talking.

"Every generation of Donghuang will die in the battle for the throne. Those storytellers always say that the Dachen Dynasty was stained with too much blood. .”

"If there is too much bloody smell, our Huangxuan family should have the most." Zichen poured himself a cup of tea and said.

"Yes, during the siege of the Hulao, tens of thousands of people were trapped in the city. Even Master Liao Kong from Weichen Temple scolded the founding father for committing too many murders." Si Tianming shook his head and said.

"Guess who sent this letter." Si Tianming spread out the letter in his hand and said.

Zichen looked at Si Tianming.

"Li Yuanchun." Si Tianming looked at Zichen and said.

"What is the order of the Zhongshu sect?" Zichen frowned and said, "What is he writing for?"

"Since Empress Gouchen, there has been no chancellor in the Dachen Dynasty, and the leaders of Zhongshu's sect can be regarded as Donghuang's chancellor. But now Prime Minister Li is inviting you to visit his residence during the Yuanqiu Festival." Si Tianming He shook the letter in his hand.

"I haven't returned to Donghuang yet. Why is an invitation for the Yuanqiu Festival so urgent? I have to send it across the vast sea." Zichen shook his head and said.

"I can't be in a hurry for them. Whoever has been the emperor in the past 800 years, the Huangxuan family is the Huangxuan family in the south of the Yangtze River. But the emperor of a dynasty is a courtier." Si Tianming put the letter in front of Zichen, "According to me We know that Li Yuanchun is supporting the eldest prince. However, the eldest prince has not yet been crowned king, so no one can guess what Emperor Changgeng means."

"Then should the Huangxuan family go to this banquet?" Zichen asked.

"Go, of course." Si Tianming patted his palms with a fan and said.

"why?"

"Hmm... I heard that Prime Minister Li's daughter can be called the national beauty of Peony, so I should definitely go and see it." Si Tianming shook his head and said.

"Just because of this?"

"Of course there are other reasons, but I can't think of them for a while." Si Tianming said.

"You still want to see someone else's girl after all."

"Peony is beautiful, don't you want to go and see it?" Si Tianming looked at Zichen seriously: "I want to go to Hongyinfang when I go to Chang'an this time, I heard that the girl Huaisu... "

Just as Zichen wanted to interrupt Si Tianming, the heavy curtain of the main hall was suddenly lifted.

"Master Jhin, we are surrounded by ships from the Arthur Empire!"

Bi Fang panted heavily, as if rushing over.

In the overwhelming mist, dozens of flags embroidered with the silver world tree slowly emerged in the gray mist, and the huge metal beast made a sharp whistle.

They were surrounded by ships of the Arthur Empire.

Zichen was wearing a scarlet cloak and standing on the deck.

After those ships narrowed the encirclement to a certain extent, they stopped approaching and did not launch any attacks, like a circle of steel walls, enclosing the huge Tai Yi.

The wooden keel boat was completely unable to move surrounded by dozens of steel behemoths.

If Arthur didn't launch an attack, the Huangxuan family would naturally not start the battle first. The fog on the sea was thick, and they could only see the front ships clearly, but couldn't see if there were more ships behind.

It will take a certain amount of time for the other supports of the Huangxuan family on the sea to arrive here, and even if they all arrive, they may not be able to fight against the Arthur Empire.

The Huangxuan family was originally a warrior born on land, not suitable for naval battles.This situation is not good for the Huangxuan family in any way.

"The Arthur Empire looks like it wants to negotiate." Si Tianming said, looking at the Arthur Empire ships that hadn't launched an attack for a long time.

"Wait and see what happens." Zichen frowned, he didn't want to meet people from the Arthur Empire now no matter what.

"But being besieged all the time like this, not doing anything is afraid that it will be bad for the army's morale." Si Tianming said.

"I know." Zichen said, "Let's wait and see."

02

The Huangxuan family has been surrounded by the ships of the Arthur Empire for seven days, but the Arthur Empire has never made any moves, as if they just want to trap them here.

However, the more it drags on, the worse it will be for the Huangxuan family. With less and less food and water, it will also be quite bad for the morale of the army if it goes on like this.

"Tell the Arthur Empire that we agree to negotiate." Zichen said looking at the vast fog outside the window, the huge metal ships of the Arthur Empire were half hidden in the fog, and the World Tree flag rustled in the sea wind.

The sea breeze is cold, which makes people feel a little bit of a sense of drowsiness. There is a long wooden plank between the Taiyi and the Shengyin in the center. The wooden plank is very long and it will feel crumbling, and the bottom cannot be seen in the vast sea area.

Wearing Donghuang's Yunlan clothes, Zichen slowly walked up the plank, followed by Lu Shu and Xiang Wang.

Zichen thought that it would be really fun if he fell into the sea halfway. The fog would be so thick that he would not be able to pick it up for a while, and he might just sink to the bottom of the sea.

Wihipel couldn't find him, Si Tianming couldn't find him, and no one could find him.

He was lying on the bottom of the sea, the sea water was cold and slow, as if it would not flow.There may not even be the concept of time, no life, no death, no memory and no future.There is chaos there, it is the beginning of primordial enlightenment, the beginning of everything.He remembered the whitebait that the tower keeper had told him that day in the Auer sea, swimming aimlessly in the vast sea like that.

Empty and empty, the face of the deep is dark, and it just swims like this, not looking for the place where it was born.

All the whitebaits are going back and forth to complete the once-in-a-lifetime great reunion and death, life and death, beginning and end, a long cycle of reincarnation.

Only it swims aimlessly against the school of fish, escaping from samsara, with no beginning, no end, no birth, no death.There is no concept of time.

In the end, Zichen walked safely to the Shengyin, there was no seabed, no whitebait, only the majestic Arthur soldiers in formation.

Zichen felt that he was really a little stupid. At this moment, he would actually think about those whitebaits and the bottom of the sea.

The one who led him was Xi Wen, who was wearing the silver-white military uniform of the Templar Knights, and it seemed that he hadn't seen him for a long time.On the way, Zichen heard Xiwen whisper to him, "Zichen, what's going on? You..."

Zichen twitched the corner of his mouth and smiled but said nothing. He didn't understand all the things that happened, so how could he explain it to others?

"You are..." Xiwen said almost sadly, "What's going on?"

Walking through the long corridor is Visipel's room. Zichen still remembers the first time he came to this ship.

He wholeheartedly wanted to avenge the Huangxuan family, but he was caught by the ring spirits as soon as he set foot on this continent.That person appeared like a god, in the dark night, in the endless rain.

And he asked him if he wanted to follow him.

He reached out to him from his silver steed.

Maybe even if everything happened again, even if he already knew everything, he would still nod in vain when Vehippel asked him if he wanted to follow him.

"Your Highness!" Siwen saluted to Wisipel, his right boot hit his left boot with a clanging sound, and he clenched his fist over his heart. "Young Master Huangxuan has arrived."

Xiwen's movements are smooth and standard, with the majesty unique to the Arthur Empire.Zhen's Zichen almost didn't follow along with him. Sure enough, the training in the Hall of Valor was too strict, and he had formed muscle memory.

"The others go down first." Wihipel looked down at the information in his hand without even looking up.

Lu Shu suddenly pulled out a part of the accompanying sword in his hand, and Zichen shook it to signal them to go down.

When Xiang Wang left, he looked back at Zichen, his eyes were covered with white cloth strips, and he didn't know what he could see.There were only two people left in the room, Wisipel and Zichen. Wisipel kept looking at the documents, as if he had forgotten that there was another person here.

Zichen was not in a hurry, and casually leaned against the table next to him. He hadn't had a good rest recently, and his spirit seemed a little weak.From time to time, he raised his eyes and looked at Vichypel, who was concentrating on processing the documents. His half-closed black eyes were like jade under the lights of an antique shop.

As if he had finally finished processing all the materials, Vichypel put the cap on the pen, and his thin fingers held the platinum pen, which looked terribly beautiful.He raised his head and looked at Zichen who had been waiting beside him. In the past, when he was in the Golden Palace, he usually looked at Zichen like this after processing the materials, just to ask Zichen to go over and hug his waist with his small hands. If Zichen ignored Drop his cue, and he'll keep watching like this.

Zichen restrained his muscle memory, straightened his body, looked at Vehipel and said, "Your Highness, I think you know why I'm here this time?"

Wischpel didn't answer, he looked at Zichen and frowned, "Have you not rested recently?"

"I'm afraid now is not the time to talk about this, Your Highness."

Visipel picked up the corner of his mouth and chuckled, "Master Huangxuan came here alone, reminding me of Cleopatra, although the history of the Western Continent chosen by the young master this semester failed, but you should know, right? A woman who seduced two emperors also came alone at night. If your purpose is the same, I don't mind accepting you." His words were ambiguous and almost explicit, but his voice was cold and almost piercing. "But you will only have one emperor."

Zichen looked up at Wisipel, "I'm here to end this."

"End?" Wisipel also looked at Zichen, his blue eyes were like the sky above the Northern Territory, even the sunlight was thin and cold.

"Visper, I don't want to entangle any more, and the Huangxuan family doesn't want to have anything to do with the Arthur Empire. We won't attack the Arthur Empire again, we just want to go back, and I hope His Highness can let us go. way of life."

"You want to go back like this? You want to end like this?"

"I know His Highness will not stop until he gets the jade talisman, but even if you kill the Huangxuan family to the last person, I can't give the jade talisman to you, so it's better to let it go now, it's better to end now... "

"Huangxuan Jin, are you going to leave just like this?" Vihipel suddenly smiled with the corners of his mouth up, with a bit of savagery and cruelty, and a bit of emerald-like green in his blue eyes.

"Visper, let Huangxuan's family go, and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on," Zichen said.From now on, everything is over, those who can be counted, and those who can't be counted, have nothing to do with it.

"Huangxuanjin, do you want it to end like this?" Wisipel's smile seemed to be ironic, but it made people feel hopeless and sad, "Huangxuanjin, we can't end it."

"I killed your father, and your mother died because of me. The Huangxuan family is now like this because of me, and then you want to leave like this?" Wisipel said: "Are you going to let me go like this? ?”

"Whisper!" Zichen suddenly pulled out a handful of silver guns from his body, aimed at Weiss, "Let the Huangxuan family leave."

Wihipel looked at Zichen as if he didn't care, "Shoot, I deserve it."

The two confronted each other, and Zichen knew that it was useless to go on like this, so he bit his lip and pointed the gun at his leg.

Wisipel closed his eyes and shook his head, "Little Phoenix, are you threatening me with yourself?"

"Little Huangniao, you shouldn't be like this." His voice was very soft.

Zichen felt that his arm holding the gun had begun to tremble. Wisipel stood up slowly from the chair while supporting the table. The injury on his leg hadn’t healed yet. The posture is perfect and elegant, like an ancient and noble blood race.

"You shouldn't be like this. You know how much I care about you." The man looked at him and said, his eyes were as beautiful as the sky of Asgard.

The gun was snatched by Wisipel, who sat on the chair again, pulled Zichen into his arms, pressed the gun against Zichen's jaw, forced him to raise his head, and then gently Kissing the large area of ​​skin on his neck, the movements are ambiguous and dangerous.

"Xiaohuangniao, you forgot to open the insurance."

Wisipel smiled lightly and flipped the safety off with his hand, and the silver gun made a crisp sound.The cold muzzle slid down slowly along the beating pulse, ripping off the clothes at the collarbone.Zichen felt that his back was starting to stiffen, and people instinctively resisted and resisted danger, not to mention the current state, he was no longer sure whether Wisipel would really shoot.

"Huangxuanjin, there is no way to end..." His voice seemed to be sighing, "It can't end, and it won't end."

"No relationship, no more entanglement, how is it possible? Who wants to have nothing to do with you, I still owe you so much, and you owe me so much."

"Whisper, it's impossible for me to give you the jade talisman." Zichen gritted his teeth.

"Jade talisman? Huangxuanjin, even if you leave the jade talisman behind, you can't go back." Vichypel said, "You must stay by my side."

"If you leave, I will take you back with thousands of troops..."

"How can you leave? What are you going back to do? Marry that princess, and then raise your eyebrows and have children and grandchildren everywhere? Huangxuan Jin, don't even think about it! Don't even think about breaking up with me, it has nothing to do with me!"

The ice-cold guns slid down slowly along the waist, and a gunshot sounded suddenly. The jade belt buckle on Zichen's waist was shattered by bullets, and the broken pieces of jade fell on the cashmere carpet.Zichen was startled by the sound of the gun, and the muzzle of the gun became scorching hot, burning on his skin, which was astonishingly hot.

Zichen's eyelashes were trembling all the time, tears flowed out, and then he was licked off bit by bit.

Brutal but almost icy movements.Wisipel put Zichen's head on his shoulder, hugging and kissing for too long, but it seemed that nothing could fill him up, so he turned over and over, brutal and cruel.

□□ moved to his neck again, moving slowly at the Adam's apple.

Zichen remembered that this gun was given to him by Wispel, and it was also taught him how to shoot by Wispel. A shirt, with one leg on the ground.Wischpel held his hand, pulled the trigger, and leaned into his ear teaching him to aim.

Vichypel's breath fell in his ears.

"Visper, you can't lock me up forever..."

Wihipel seemed to smile, but it made people feel desperate and sad.

"Little Phoenix, we won't end."
