Double heart

"
Zhong Li'an held the paddle that Qi Muxue was rowing, and said, "Mu Xue, let me come, I will take you to your master."
"Then it's time to work."
Wu Ziyang tapped the water surface and returned to the shore, Qi Luo raised his eyebrows, what do you mean?
Wu Ziyang nodded slightly, which was acknowledgment of Qi Luo's comment on Zhong Li'an just now.
When they got ashore, Qi Muxue consciously or unintentionally walked in front of Zhong Li'an to keep a distance from him.
Bringing Qi Muxue in front of Qi Luo, Zhong Li'an saluted and said, "I've seen Mr. Huiyu Luo, I've seen Wu Jianshen."
Qi Luo smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are being polite." After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhong Li'an and said to Wu Ziyang, "I found that you two are quite alike, with sullen faces all day long, like the door gods pasted on the door by the people. Same."
Zhong Li'an nodded: "Master Mu Xue laughed."
Qi Luo waved his hands, looked at Qi Muxue and joked, "Was Mu Xue not seeing you as a teacher for a while?"
But Wu Ziyang's face seemed to be cracked for a moment, but he quickly returned to that look of a gatekeeper.Qi Muxue said calmly: "There are a few things that I don't understand and I want to ask Master to help."
"Really? I haven't seen what you want to answer for the teacher when I'm usually in the door."
Qi Muxue still said calmly: "That's because you are usually not free, Master."
This sentence is true, Qi Luo immersed himself in studying various formations all day long, even though he never went out, he was nowhere to be found in Qimen.
"So that's how it is." Qi Luo raised his eyebrows and looked at Wu Ziyang after speaking, "Do you want to go back?"
Wu Ziyang looked at Zhong Li'an: "Take a break and come again."
"It's rare for me to go down the mountain once, just to see you compete?" Qi Luo said.
Wu Ziyang seemed to be stunned for a moment, but he quickly returned to his original state, and he pointed to the lake and said, "Then let's go boating, how about it?"
Qi Luo glanced at Wu Ziyang, he understood, and said, "That's fine."
The wreckage of many small boats floated up and down on the lake, broken and broken.Wu Ziyang stood on the spot, with his arms hanging down naturally, he turned his palms up and turned them halfway, and the few remaining small boats that were still in good condition appeared on the shore in an instant.
There were only four small boats, Qi Luo and Wu Ziyang shared the same boat, Zhong Li'an also walked towards a small boat when he saw this, Han Dugeng's eyes were rolling and he was about to follow Zhong Li'an, but Xiao Zhu pulled him over.
Han Dougeng gave him a blank look: "What are you doing!"
Xiaozhu said: "Why are you joining in the fun, just stay here."
Han Dougeng flattened his mouth and couldn't be on the same boat with his eldest brother, which made him very unhappy.
Qi Muxue walked towards Qi Luo's boat, Han Dugeng smiled and quickly pulled Xiaozhu onto the last empty boat.
A few people stood on the boat, paddled across the water with bare hands, Qi Muxue looked up at the sky with her eyes covered, and then slowly rowed the water: "Master, the sky is about to change."
Qi Luo nodded: "Yes."
"Huh?" Han Dougeng, who heard the conversation, asked curiously, "It's a sunny day, how did Mr. Bai Yuxue know that this day is going to change?"
Qi Muxue said indifferently: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed."
Han Dougeng curled his lips, and then rowed hard to keep pace with Zhong Li'an.
Just as he was about to approach Zhong Lian's boat, a water screen suddenly cut across from an angle, just separating him from Zhong Lian's boat.
Qi Luo moved his hands slightly, and an invisible barrier enveloped Han Dugeng and the boat he and Qi Muxue were on.I saw him put his hand into the armhole, and then took out a lot of food, which he distributed to the few people watching the battle here and said: "Come on, come on, idle is idle anyway."
Qi Muxue turned to Qi Luo, as if she didn't understand why Master brought out so many snacks.
After Qi Luo smiled, he pointed at Zhong Li'an and said, "I didn't bring it, I took it from him."
Xiaozhu's expression darkened, and he lowered his eyes and remained silent.Han Dougeng ate it without any hesitation, he smiled and said, "Hey, brother must have prepared it for me!"
Qi Muxue sat quietly at the stern of the boat. He was dressed in white clothes that surpassed the snow, with a silver and white belt around his waist, and his black hair was half tied behind him like silk and satin. The breeze blew through and lifted strands of hair, like a fairy who had strayed into the world.
Han Dougeng couldn't help but look a few more times, Qi Luo tilted his head and said, "Xiaosheng, are you looking at my apprentice?"
Han Dougeng pulled his sleeves and wiped the residue from the corners of his mouth, "No."
"Really?"
"That's natural! No one in this world is as handsome as my elder brother! What's there to see!"
Qi Luo pursed his lips and smiled, "Indeed."
"That's right, Mr. Huiyuluo thinks so too! Hehe! It seems that we are gentlemen who see the same thing!" Han Dougeng said proudly, as if he was the one being praised.
Qi Luo said again: "Then...you like your elder brother?"
Han Dougeng said without hesitation, "Naturally!"
"Oh~"
Qi Luo's 'Oh' was cadenced, and Han Dougeng blushed when he realized it, and he explained: "One is happy but not the other, regardless of national boundaries and other prejudices, there is no one in the world who doesn't like my elder brother!"
"Oh~ Then why are you blushing?"
Qi Luo laughed so badly, Han Dugeng stared and said: "You are not allowed to blaspheme my elder brother!"
Qi Muxue said thoughtfully: "Master seems to be very happy today, but I didn't expect Wu Jianshen to come out to swim in the lake with such leisure and elegance."
As soon as I made a joke about that person, my apprentice immediately stopped him, Qi Luo shook his head: "I don't know either."
"Oh~"
The same cadence, with four twists and turns.
Qi Luo said: "I heard that the general's mansion has countless concubines and beauties are like a cloud, so what Hongling's first talent is in his mansion, and Princess Tianhong seems to like him too, this General Zhongli is also very lucky!"
"It can't compare to Wu Jianshen. I heard that someone invited Wu Jianshen to enjoy the flowers last month. Wu Jianshen seems to have accepted the invitation. The two even went for a night tour. Everyone said that they are both talented and beautiful, and they were made in heaven."
"Wu Ziyang looks great, there are not a few people who admire him."
Qi Muxue was a little surprised, she bowed her head and said nothing.
But the two people outside the barrier were still fighting fiercely, the entire huge lake was violently ups and downs like a gust of wind, the sword energy cut the lake surface over and over again, and the splashed water turned into sharp weapons and collided with each other!
Although the sky was sunny, it suddenly rained heavily. Wu Ziyang held a sword across his chest, took a raindrop from the sword, and then pushed it suddenly, and the raindrop instantly turned into a sharp weapon and shot towards Zhong Li'an!
Zhongli'an waved his sword sideways towards the lake, and a water barrier was erected to block the rain needles!Then he caught the sword rain with his backhand, and after turning around, the rain needle shot towards Wu Ziyang at a faster speed.Wu Ziyang held the sword to quickly block from left to right, and shot down all the rain needles.
The two put their swords back into their sheaths at the same time, and Zhong Li'an bowed his hands to Wu Ziyang and saluted: "Zhong Li'an has been taught, thank you Wu Jianshen."
Wu Ziyang said lightly: "You don't need to thank me." He took out a golden token from his pocket and said, "Here's the token, it's up to you whether you go or not."
"Thank you." Zhong Li'an looked at the token, and saw the words 'Moonless Valley' engraved on the token.He put away the token, and then flew in the direction of Xiaozhu and Han Dougeng.
Qi Luo retracted the barrier, and the two fell back into the boat. He said to Zhong Li'an, "I watched a big show today, and it was really enjoyable. General, how about I do a few tricks with you?"
Wu Ziyang said mercilessly: "Qimen formation is incomprehensible in the eyes of the people in the world, but if you use it on me and him, if you don't use the heart-killing formation, you will be defeated within a moment."
Seeing Wu Ziyang dismantling him, Qi Luo was not annoyed, he hissed and said: "Tch, boring. There is a golden house in the formation, there is Yan Ruyu in the formation, the beauty is like a cloud, warm and soft, don't you want to stop?" try?"
Wu Ziyang's face darkened in an instant, and after a while, he squeezed out a few words between his teeth: "No, use it."
"Then next time you come, I'll give you a different flavor? Yan thin ring fat, or... change to something enchanting?"
Several people were in the boat, Wu Ziyang's face was dark, Zhong Li'an was about to persuade him, Qi Muxue raised his hand to stop him, and saw him reach out to take off his hair tie and hand it to Zhong Li'an, saying: "This hair tie is temporarily stored with yours. , I will come to retrieve it in a few days, okay?"
Zhong Li'an looked at Qi Muxue with some puzzlement, although he couldn't see his eyes, but seeing Qi Muxue's face was full of seriousness, he took it and solemnly said: "Okay."
When Zhong Li'an fulfilled his promise, the ribbon wrapped around Zhong Li'an's left wrist in a volley, Zhong Li'an was a little surprised and said: "It looks like it's alive."
"Well, it has a name, Wuhen." Qi Muxue said.
"Boy." Qi Luo glanced at the ribbon on Zhong Li'an's wrist and raised his head, he put away the smile that had been hanging on his face, and said sternly, "If this belt is destroyed, I will crush you to the ends of the earth! "
Chapter 033 Slippery Pants
Qi Muxue, his master and Wu Ziyang had already bid farewell and left, leaving Zhongli'an and the others on a boat on the lake.
Looking at the lake, Han Dougeng flattened his mouth and said, "Unfortunately, I didn't see the water fairy..."
"Shuixianzi, do you know what a shuixianzi looks like?" Xiao Zhu asked him with a disdainful glance.
"Naturally I know!" Han Dougeng immediately shook his head and said, "A bit icy is not flattering, three points are proud and unassuming; gorgeous and natural are true colors, pure and handsome are true faces; slim and graceful are better than emeralds, and hibiscus is enchanting. Narcissus, do you understand?" After he finished speaking, he looked at Xiaozhu with an expression that you don't understand anything.
Xiao Zhu rolled his eyes at him, and said: "I only know that there is a water monster in the water, with a green face and long fangs, five feet long hair, but a graceful figure, who only eats you! Be careful, it will drag you to the bottom of the lake and eat you!"
Han Dougeng stared wide-eyed: "You are talking nonsense! How could the water fairy be a water monster!"
"Believe it or not, I've seen it with my own eyes. The water monster just flicked its hair, pierced a big hole in its body, rolled it up, and dragged it into the water."
"Hmph! Made it up!" Han Dougeng said, turning his head away, not wanting to see Xiaozhu.
Zhong Li'an bowed his head and wondered what he was thinking about. After a while, he looked at his left wrist. The ribbon was wrapped around his wrist obliquely, and the ribbon seemed to be shining brightly.
Han Dougeng stepped onto Zhong Lian's side of the boat and came up curiously: "Brother, what is this, why is it still moving?"
Zhong Li'an: "I don't know."
"Oh, but big brother is so powerful! He even tied with the Sword God!"
Zhong Li'an shook his head and said truthfully: "No, he is teaching me about swordsmanship."
Han Dougeng thought that Zhong Li'an was being modest, so he said again: "Then what did the sword god give to elder brother?"
Zhong Li'an took out the token and handed it to Han Dougeng, Han Dougeng looked at it and said in surprise: "The entry and exit order for Moonless Valley?"
Zhong Li'an: "Huh?"
Han Dougeng explained: "Brother may not know, this Moonless Valley is not located in the territory of Tianhong. The difference between it and Qimen is that Qimen is still in Tianhong, but ordinary people can't find it. But this Moonless Valley But it’s different, Moonless Valley is located on an island that is unoccupied, and they have occasional contacts with Qimen. They used to only need to take a boat to get there, but later with the help of Qimen, they set up a formation and changed the rules. Those who order are not allowed to enter."
Moonless Valley...
Zhong Li'an's thoughts turned, Guang seemed to have mentioned Moonless Valley before.
Several people paddled back to the shore, and Han Dougeng said again: "It is said that there is a library pavilion in Moonless Valley, which is the dream of all scholars and martial arts practitioners in the world! It is said that the library pavilion is as big as a city, so Moonless Valley is also called Golden Island, which is a metaphor for many books. However, I heard that the owner of the valley is very stubborn, and Wu Jianshen handles everything in the valley, and the owner of the valley is happy and happy everywhere. However, in this world, the only As far as sects are concerned, apart from this Moonless Valley, there is really no single sect that can compete with Qimen."
Zhong Li'an asked suspiciously: "Since it's on an island, why isn't it called Moonless Island?"
"Hey, it wasn't changed by the current Gu owner! It used to be called Wuyue Island, but he didn't think it sounded good, so he changed it to Gu. What do you mean? I saw a sentence in the book, 'Gu Yu bamboo shoots and tea are beautiful, and the wind and chrysanthemums are sweet and plump. He said that he liked this sentence very much, so he changed it, and beat up the person who opposed his name change! This person has a bad personality, a bad temper, vicious methods, and he is idle, flirting everywhere, showing mercy everywhere. I heard that he likes to drink Ning'an goji berries soaked in dew, and he also drinks it every day. In my opinion, he has insufficient kidney qi, but it is a pity that the deficiency cannot be replenished. Besides, he is not only good at women, but also good at Longyang. People sick."
After talking a lot, Han Dougeng suddenly remembered the Zhong family rules that Zhong Li'an said last time, he immediately raised his hand and slapped himself, then lowered his head and said: "The eighth rule of the Zhong family rules, chewing the root of the tongue, Slander others, fifty whips. Brother, I accept the punishment."
He slapped him so hard that the right side of his face suddenly swelled up.
Zhong Li'an was stunned for a moment, then took out the ointment, without saying a word, gently applied Han Dougeng's swollen face.
Seeing Zhong Li'an silently looking at his side face, Han Dougeng called out tremblingly: "Brother, I didn't intend to use this slap for those fifty lashes, so what, little bamboo." The boat had landed, and Han Dougeng said Hurry up and get off the boat, lie down on a big rock, look at Xiaozhu and say, "You come to punish me."
Zhongli'an stood still, and after a while, he took out a soft black whip from his waist and handed it to Xiaozhu, "Punishment." With one breath, he controlled his strength and whipped the whip down.
This whip is more than four feet long, it can be struck, whipped, bound, and hooked. If Zhongli'an uses it, a single whip can penetrate an ordinary person.If whipped, the skin will be ripped apart and the flesh will be torn to the bone.
Although Xiaozhu was not good at using the whip and restrained his strikes, Han Dougeng's back was still bloody and bloody after fifty lashes.
"Xiaozhu, go back and give him a copy of the Zhong family's family rules so that he can memorize them by heart." Zhong Li'an said, turned and left.
"Yes."
"Thank you, brother." Han Dougeng grinned.
"Still laughing." Xiao Zhu laughed as well.
He, Han Dougeng, has officially become a member of the Zhong family from now on. (Reminder: For those who feel unclear about the Zhong family's family rules and Zhonglimen's family, Gu Deng will explain it later.)
The few people lost their interest in swimming in the lake, so they went back to their residence, only to find that Zhong Li'an hadn't come back.
Uncle Fu stopped Xiao Zhu who was going to find Zhongli An and told him: "If you find you, just follow him from a distance, and if you can't find him, come back first."
Xiao Zhu nodded in agreement.
Zhong Li'an did not go back, because he felt something strange about his body, it was a very strange feeling.
Since the last 'sacrifice' by the snake group until now, just after the initial wound healed, he felt a little uncomfortable.Later, maybe I got used to it or got used to it, and I didn't feel any strange feeling anymore.
But just now, the moment the ribbon was wound up, he felt his blood throbbing!
After parting with Han Dougeng and Xiao Zhu, he found an absolutely secret and secluded place in this barren mountain and wild ridge, and took off his outer shirt.
Suddenly there was a pain in his chest, Zhong Li'an immediately pulled down the collar of his shirt, only to see dense agitation like bugs wriggling around the scar from the original injury!Then the frequency of this agitation centered on the tendons at the scar, and then quickly spread to the limbs!
Severe pain suddenly swept through his whole body, Zhong Li'an clenched his teeth.
At this time, the ribbon began to glow softly, and the pain seemed to have decreased a little, but it was just a drop in the bucket.
Zhong Li'an didn't let out the slightest cry of pain, he was leaning against the big tree to hold on, but he slipped to the side due to his inability to support.He felt as if he fell into an ice cave for a while, and he felt as if he was being roasted on the fire for a while, and the hot and cold were constantly alternating.
After a while, something fell on his face, Zhong Lian frowned and opened his eyes.
Qi Muxue was wiping his sweat carefully.
"Mu...Mu Xue." Zhong Li'an said with difficulty.
The clothes on her body were already wet with sweat, Qi Muxue stretched out her hand and untied Zhong Li'an's shirt.But Zhong Li'an has been so weak since the onset of the symptoms, he can't even clenched his fists, and he can't stop Qi Muxue.Seeing him blushing, he said, "Don't..."
Qi Muxue ignored him, and wiped off the sweat on his body carefully, and after wiping off the sweat, Qi Muxue stretched her hand to the waist of his trousers, Zhong Li'an was extremely embarrassed!
In the past, he would not have thought about it, but last time he dreamed that he was like Mu Xue, and he felt sorry for him at the same time.
Zhong Li'an raised his hand, and found that he could lift it up, so he quickly grabbed Qi Muxue's hand that was already on his trouser waist and said, "I'm fine." Even his tongue was knotted!
After hearing this, Qi Muxue withdrew her hand, and Zhong Li'an breathed a sigh of relief.
With his physical strength gradually recovering, Zhongli Anyue calculated the time of the attack, and it took about a quarter of an hour.
"Mu Xue, why are you back?" Zhong Li'an quickly sat up, hurriedly picked up his clothes and put them on himself, Qi Muxue just watched him flustered, without making a sound.
Seeing this, Zhong Li'an couldn't help but slow down his movements: "Mu Xue...are you angry with me?"
Qi Muxue remained silent, he stretched out his hand to lift half of the ribbon covering his eyes, then raised his eyes to look at Zhong Li'an and said, "Does it still hurt?"
Zhong Li'an shook his head.
"General, I have never seen this symptom before."
Zhong Li smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just that I can't move for a quarter of an hour."
Qi Muxue said: "I will take the general to find Master."
"It's okay, there's no need." Zhong Li'an said and got up, but he never thought that Qi Muxue had torn his trouser belt loose just now, and with his sudden stop, the trousers fell to his knees in an instant!
Zhong Li'an blushed immediately!Luckily the underpants didn't slip off!
Think of him as a dignified general, since he was a child, he has been well-behaved, and he has never done a single rude thing!I didn't talk about the dream last time, but this time it came out again!
Zhong Li'an quickly pulled up his trousers and fastened them tightly.
Qi Muxue pulled down her eyeband to cover her clear purple eyes in her left eye and said, "Do you want to show off your majesty, General?"
Don't look at Zhong Lian's invincible armor on the battlefield and everyone's awe, in fact, he has a thin skin!At this time, his handsome face was red and purple, purple and red again, and he was suppressed into a purple eggplant.
"That... that... that... that... I... I..."
Not only did it become a purple eggplant, but it also stuttered.
Qi Muxue couldn't see any emotion on his face, so he said calmly: "Your Excellency, you don't need to explain too much. It's not that you haven't got a clue, and I'm also a man. What's more, there are so many beauties around Your Excellency. I haven't seen any scenes before. It's nothing. So ashamed."
There are as many beauties as a cow's hair? ?
But he had never seen this scene before!
Zhong Li'an forcibly suppressed the heat, and his complexion returned to normal after a while.He looked at the position of Qi Muxue's eyes, thought for a moment and said, "Mu Xue, you are actually... not blind?"
Qi Muxue paused in her heart, and saw him calmly said: "Yes."
The blush that had just faded from Zhong Li'an's face suddenly reappeared.
Chapter 034
Qi Muxue wanted to take Zhong Li'an to Qimen, but Zhong Li'an refused.
Qimen has its own rules, and Zhong Li'an cannot let Qi Muxue break the rules because of him.What's more, for a reclusive family like Qimen, it is better to have less contact with the outside world.
Qi Muxue couldn't hold back Zhong Li'an and left alone.Zhong Li'an also returned to his current residence.
As soon as she came back, Luo Qingyan hugged Zhongli'an's waist, and Han Dugeng rolled his eyes and pulled him out: "What are you doing, what are you doing!"
Luo Qingmin's ears were reddish, she didn't make a sound, and stepped aside.
Uncle Fu took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Li'an, saying: "I just received it."
Zhong Li'an reached out to take it, without shy away from it, and directly unpacked it.
The letter was very long, and Zhong Li'an showed no emotion on his face, but the knuckles of his fingers turning white while holding the letter showed how hard he was using it.
After reading it, he held the letter in the palm of his hand, and when he let go, the letter turned into dust and fell from his fingertips.
Fu Bo sensed that something was wrong, as long as Zhong Li'an's face became calmer, it meant that the matter was getting more serious.
"Han Dougeng, you accompany Luohou to walk around the street." Fu Bo said.
Han Dougeng has always understood other people's eyes very well, otherwise he would not be alive now.He pulled Luo Qingmin away and said, "Let's go, I'm in a good mood today, young master, so I reluctantly take you out for a stroll."
Luo Qingyan glanced at Zhongli'an, then followed Han Dugeng and left.
The two people who stayed in the same place entered a room one after the other. Uncle Fu asked, "My lord, what's the matter? Did something happen?"
Zhong Li'an lowered his eyes: "Zhong Jiajun..."
"what happened?"
"I wanted to advance by retreating, so I handed over the Tiger Talisman." Zhong Li'an said.
Uncle Fu was stunned: "Young Master handed over the Tiger Talisman?"
Zhong Li'an took a deep breath and said, "Yes."
In the current situation, even if he doesn't hand it over, that person will think of a way to make him offer it with both hands, so it's better to hand it over himself.Faber was silent.
The Zhong family army was a team assembled when Zhong Li'an's father was still alive. There were not many people, but they only obeyed the orders of the Zhong family.Originally, the imperial court tabooed forming troops privately, but there would be constant wars on the frontier, and the team had less than 100 people, so that person just turned a blind eye.However, the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful, that person naturally wants to remove this thorn in his side.
After Zhong Li'an was injured, his life was hanging by a thread, he was half dead, he slept for a long time, and after waking up his body was weak, and the Zhong Mansion had already fallen.He originally thought that as long as he handed over his power, the Zhong family's army would have to work hard even if they didn't have any credit. Maybe that guy would want to arrange them well and arrange errands for them for the sake of their contribution to the country.Unexpectedly...
"A few people were locked up in the wrong place, and others were recruited." Zhong Li'an said.
Uncle Fu sighed: "It doesn't matter if they were recruited, but those who were locked up in the wrong place probably lost half their lives."
"The letter said that they were imprisoned for collaborating with the enemy and treason. The newly promoted general said that these people belonged to the former General Zhen Guo, and they dared not dispose of them without authorization. They have already been handed over to Dali Temple."
"How many people are there?"
"Three people." Zhong Li'an clenched his fists after finishing speaking.
Fu Bo said: "How reliable is this letter, and who wrote it if it is signed."
Zhong Li'an shook his head.
But even if it was fake, he still had to go back to find out the truth, after all, they were all brothers who followed him through life and death!
Zhong Li'an said: "The Zhong family's army will not betray their country for glory, I trust them."
Fu Bo was silent, and after a while he said: "If... I said if, they really did this..."
Zhongli Anlue lowered his eyes: "I will carry out the execution myself, and then I will take the blame." He came to the window and looked down, just in time to see the backs of Luo Qingmin and Han Dugeng going away.
Forber said: "It cannot be ruled out that this is a trap, and its purpose is obvious."
Yes, given the character of the Zhong family, they would definitely investigate this matter after receiving this letter, but if those people did not have sufficient evidence, how could they raise this matter to the heavens and imprison them in Dali Temple!
This is clearly a situation. Although the Zhong Family Army belonged to the imperial army, they obeyed the orders of the Zhongfu, but were discovered by the new general to be collaborating with the enemy and treason. Isn't this a sign that the Zhongfu is collaborating with the enemy and treason?
Zhong Li'an thought about it for a moment, he said that the road going south was so calm, only people came to die occasionally, so they were waiting for him here?
"Uncle Fu, let's pack up and leave for Beijing tonight."
"Yes, Naluohou..."
Zhong Li'an said: "Send someone to send him back to Beijing, and it will be bad for him to be with us."
"Yes, that Xiaosong..."
Xiaosong didn't write a letter for a long time, although it happened sometimes in the past, but an ominous premonition arose in Zhongli'an's heart.He said: "I have sent people to look for him in the past few days."
Before Zhong Li'an sent Xiao Song out to check on Qi Muxue's information, but without success, he asked him to check on the situation of various industries.In the beginning, there were occasional news from Komatsu stating the specific situation of various industries, but there was no news after that.Because Xiaosong used to be forgetful, and sometimes he forgot to report something and reported it together next time, but it was not a very important matter, so Zhong Li'an just let it go.
A few days ago when he was thinking about Xiaosong, his eyelids jumped, and he sent someone to look for Xiaosong.
Uncle Fu retreated to pack up his belongings and arrange to return to Beijing. When Han Dougeng and Luo Qingmin came back, Xiaozhu also came back.
Luo Qingyan naturally did not agree to be separated from Zhong Li'an, Zhong Li'an had no choice but to agree to take him along with her.
"Brother." Before the trip, Han Dougeng called Zhong Li'an, "I'll go find Obsidian."
Zhong Li'an remembered that last time Han Dougeng called Xiaosong like that, he said: "I have sent someone to look for him."
Han Dougeng patted his chest, "I'm here, don't worry, brother, he will definitely be found."
His eyes were full of firmness, and before Zhong Li'an could speak, Han Dougeng said again: "Obsidian has always existed as the right arm of the eldest brother. Although I don't understand why he was hostile to me last time, I can figure it out." Zhongguan Yao. He is so important to elder brother, which shows that my trip is extraordinary. And I have followed elder brother for so long, but I have not achieved anything at all. I really want to help elder brother solve problems, please give elder brother a chance."
Han Dougeng is very flexible in dealing with people and is a rare talent.Zhong Li'an thought for a while and said, "Follow me."
The two walked into Zhong Li'an's resting room, and Zhong Li'an took out two books from the packed package and handed them to him, "These two books, one is about martial arts and the other is about swordsmanship, both of them are very suitable for you. Practice, you take it, study hard and practice hard, and in no time, your martial arts will go up to several floors."
Han Dougeng took the two books and howled, "Brother! You are my reborn parents!"
"Be careful along the way. If you encounter someone who is invincible, don't force yourself." Zhong Li'an instructed Han Dougeng to take out another map, "The red dots on the map are all properties in the mansion. The last time Xiaosong contacted me It's in Jingzhou area."
Han Dougeng nodded and took the map and opened it. After reading it, Zhong Lian handed him a bundle and a simple token and said: "There are some gold and silver in it, and the journey is far away. You take it with you. If it is not enough, take out the token of the Zhong family. Just go ask the shopkeepers for some."
"Brother..." Han Dougeng bit his lower lip and wanted to cry.
Zhong Li'an patted him on the shoulder and said: "You must be careful in your actions, and you must not neglect to study the mental techniques and sword manuals given to you."
"Yes!"
"Go."
Han Dougeng knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists, solemnly said: "Brother, take care!" Then he strode away.
After Han Dougeng left, several people also set off soon.
Inside the carriage, Uncle Fu said: "My lord, although Han Dougeng is a little irritable and has a quick temper, he should be safe in his work, so don't worry too much, lord."
Zhong Li'an nodded.
Luo Qingyan pinched Zhong Li'an's sleeve, trying to say something to comfort him, but he swallowed the words again.Zhong Li'an thought he was afraid, so he reached out and patted his head and said, "It's okay, I'm here."
Luo Qingyan nodded heavily.
At the same time, Jingzhong...
"The frontier is in emergency! The frontier is in emergency! The Tianhan Dynasty sent millions of soldiers from the sky and captured Yunzhong overnight! The life and death of General Wen stationed in Yunzhong is unknown!!"
"Tianhan??? Tianhan has always been friendly with me! How could it be possible to send troops to capture my Chaoyunzhong!!"
"The frontier is urgent! The frontier is urgent! Jingyi raises 50 troops..."
"The frontier is urgent! The frontier is urgent! Xicheng sent troops..."
With three urgent calls in a row, the Chinese and Chinese military officials were shocked!Not to mention that Tianhan had never sent troops to attack other countries, but Jingyi and Xihou had been defeated by General Zhong before, so why did they start jumping around again!
"Military emergency! Military emergency!"
The beating hearts of the crowd were not yet stable, and then there was another cry of distress!
"The Tianhan army is like a fierce tiger crossing the river, heading south all the way! The iron hooves have already stepped on Jingzhou!"
"What! Jingzhou fell so quickly!?"
"It's just about stepping! It's not about falling!"
"Is there a difference?"
……
The civil and military officials immediately whispered to each other.
Suddenly someone said: "Yes! General Zhong! Where is General Zhong!"
Someone tugged at the person who made the sound: "It's General Zhongli."
That's right, it's not General Zhong, but General Zhongli.
The person who made the sound shut up, and it was obvious that the other country saw Tianhong cut off its wings and attacked.
The courtiers below were in a mess, but the person on the dragon chair at the top was still calm. He passed by all the courtiers, and all the civil and military officials fell silent.
Nangong Xuanyuan said in a deep voice: "What's your opinion, dear friends?"
"I implore the emperor to urgently summon General Zhongli to go out!"
Seeing someone raised their heads, all the officials said in unison: "I implore the emperor to urgently call General Zhongli to go out!"
The faces of the people on the dragon chair were gloomy. He single-handedly pulled out all the generals stationed in Jingzhou and Yunzhong, but now they were defeated in one blow. He still wants to invite that boy from Zhongfu to go out!
He turned his head to the side, looked at Nangong Muyun who had been silent all this time, and said, "What does the prince think?"
"minister……"
As soon as Nangong Muyun came out to speak, he saw the envoy from Jingzhou tremblingly said: "Qi...Qi to the emperor, the general of Tianhan said..."
Seeing him hesitating to speak, the emperor was furious, slapped the dragon chair and said, "It's not easy to talk! Drag it out and chop it up!"
"The emperor spares the emperor! The Han general said that as long as Tianhong deposes General Zhongli, he will never be hired! They...they will withdraw their troops!"
Someone in the court said angrily: "Then why didn't you say it just now!"
"That's General Zhongli... villain... villain dare not..."
The people on the dragon chair had a panoramic view of the faces of all the officials, Nangong Muyun said: "I don't think so, let alone whether the Han will really withdraw his troops that day, just the act of dismissing General Zhongli, how much more difficult is it to go to the The hearts of soldiers and generals on the battlefield! The Zhong family has devoted themselves to Tianhong for generations, and the emperor's change of his surname has already chilled the general's heart! Is this the fate of Zhongliang?"
Nangong Xuanyuan smashed the handrail of the dragon head with a palm: "Presumptuous! Are you accusing me of doing something wrong?!"
"I dare not."
The emperor at the top was furious, and the people below did not dare to vent their anger. Nangong Xuanyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you love the same thoughts as my good prince?"
Prime Minister You hurriedly stepped forward: "I thought that Tianhan and I, Da Tianhong, have been friends for many years, and they would not say that contradictory words! Besides, when there is a war, the people will bear the brunt of the disaster. If General Zhongli's glory and wealth are exchanged for For the well-being of the people of Tianhong, I believe that General Zhongli understands the righteousness. If he knew, he would definitely ask the emperor to depose him. What's more, the enemy army is coming so fiercely this time, who knows if the Zhong family army is responsible for it? !"
"My minister agrees."
"My minister agrees."
……
Seeing that more and more people were seconding the proposal, Prime Minister Zuo stepped forward: "I think it is impossible, even if Tian Han really withdraws this time, how can he know what he will ask next time! Hong bowed his head and proclaimed himself a minister! So what to do! This is clearly a trick to sow discord! Your Majesty, you must not fall for it!"
"My minister agrees."
"My minister seconded the proposal."
"Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Zuo knelt down and bowed his head.
Seeing this, Prime Minister You also quickly knelt down: "Please think twice, Your Majesty."
Crash, all the officials knelt down and bowed their heads.
Nangong Xuanyuan's face was cloudy and cloudy, and after a while, he said loudly: "Declaration of my will! Today's general Zhong Li'an is neglected in management, and Zhong's army has three traitors who seek glory! Nian Zhongli'an has made countless contributions in the battle for Tianhong, and the death penalty can be avoided. There is no escape from the crime of living! Dismiss him from the post of general! Deprive him of his title! Relegate to common people! Retire from the court!!"
Nangong Muyun was shocked: "Father!!"
Nangong Xuanyuan stood up, waved his robe, and left with his hands behind his back.
Chapter 035
"Your Majesty is merciful. Some members of the Zhong family army colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country for glory, but the Emperor did not behead them to show the public."
"Thanks to General Zhongli."
"Shh, don't mention the words Zhong or Zhongli when you're outside."
"exactly."
……
As soon as Zhong Li'an returned to Beijing, he saw that his mansion was sealed off and surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.
He got off the horse, Xiao Zhu stepped forward and said: "My lord...this..."
"Walk."
Several people turned their horses around and beat their horses to Biezhuang, but the Biezhuang where they usually lived was also stolen.
They all wore masks on their faces, so they found an inn to stay.
Zhong Li'an was handsome and generous, the shopkeeper smiled and told Xiao Er to treat them well.
After asking for a few rooms, Xiaozhu asked Xiaoer: "My little brother, may I ask what happened to the General's Mansion?"
Xiao Er looked at Xiao Zhu suspiciously, as if he didn't understand why he asked this question.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhu said: "We are traveling merchants, we came to Beijing to do some business, today we passed by Zhongli General's Mansion in the east of the city, and saw that the General's Mansion was surrounded, so we wanted to ask."
Xiao Er and Yi Yuan
Zhong Li'an held the paddle that Qi Muxue was rowing, and said, "Mu Xue, let me come, I will take you to your master."
"Then it's time to work."
Wu Ziyang tapped the water surface and returned to the shore, Qi Luo raised his eyebrows, what do you mean?
Wu Ziyang nodded slightly, which was acknowledgment of Qi Luo's comment on Zhong Li'an just now.
When they got ashore, Qi Muxue consciously or unintentionally walked in front of Zhong Li'an to keep a distance from him.
Bringing Qi Muxue in front of Qi Luo, Zhong Li'an saluted and said, "I've seen Mr. Huiyu Luo, I've seen Wu Jianshen."
Qi Luo smiled and said, "Your Majesty, you are being polite." After he finished speaking, he looked at Zhong Li'an and said to Wu Ziyang, "I found that you two are quite alike, with sullen faces all day long, like the door gods pasted on the door by the people. Same."
Zhong Li'an nodded: "Master Mu Xue laughed."
Qi Luo waved his hands, looked at Qi Muxue and joked, "Was Mu Xue not seeing you as a teacher for a while?"
But Wu Ziyang's face seemed to be cracked for a moment, but he quickly returned to that look of a gatekeeper.Qi Muxue said calmly: "There are a few things that I don't understand and I want to ask Master to help."
"Really? I haven't seen what you want to answer for the teacher when I'm usually in the door."
Qi Muxue still said calmly: "That's because you are usually not free, Master."
This sentence is true, Qi Luo immersed himself in studying various formations all day long, even though he never went out, he was nowhere to be found in Qimen.
"So that's how it is." Qi Luo raised his eyebrows and looked at Wu Ziyang after speaking, "Do you want to go back?"
Wu Ziyang looked at Zhong Li'an: "Take a break and come again."
"It's rare for me to go down the mountain once, just to see you compete?" Qi Luo said.
Wu Ziyang seemed to be stunned for a moment, but he quickly returned to his original state, and he pointed to the lake and said, "Then let's go boating, how about it?"
Qi Luo glanced at Wu Ziyang, he understood, and said, "That's fine."
The wreckage of many small boats floated up and down on the lake, broken and broken.Wu Ziyang stood on the spot, with his arms hanging down naturally, he turned his palms up and turned them halfway, and the few remaining small boats that were still in good condition appeared on the shore in an instant.
There were only four small boats, Qi Luo and Wu Ziyang shared the same boat, Zhong Li'an also walked towards a small boat when he saw this, Han Dugeng's eyes were rolling and he was about to follow Zhong Li'an, but Xiao Zhu pulled him over.
Han Dougeng gave him a blank look: "What are you doing!"
Xiaozhu said: "Why are you joining in the fun, just stay here."
Han Dougeng flattened his mouth and couldn't be on the same boat with his eldest brother, which made him very unhappy.
Qi Muxue walked towards Qi Luo's boat, Han Dugeng smiled and quickly pulled Xiaozhu onto the last empty boat.
A few people stood on the boat, paddled across the water with bare hands, Qi Muxue looked up at the sky with her eyes covered, and then slowly rowed the water: "Master, the sky is about to change."
Qi Luo nodded: "Yes."
"Huh?" Han Dougeng, who heard the conversation, asked curiously, "It's a sunny day, how did Mr. Bai Yuxue know that this day is going to change?"
Qi Muxue said indifferently: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed."
Han Dougeng curled his lips, and then rowed hard to keep pace with Zhong Li'an.
Just as he was about to approach Zhong Lian's boat, a water screen suddenly cut across from an angle, just separating him from Zhong Lian's boat.
Qi Luo moved his hands slightly, and an invisible barrier enveloped Han Dugeng and the boat he and Qi Muxue were on.I saw him put his hand into the armhole, and then took out a lot of food, which he distributed to the few people watching the battle here and said: "Come on, come on, idle is idle anyway."
Qi Muxue turned to Qi Luo, as if she didn't understand why Master brought out so many snacks.
After Qi Luo smiled, he pointed at Zhong Li'an and said, "I didn't bring it, I took it from him."
Xiaozhu's expression darkened, and he lowered his eyes and remained silent.Han Dougeng ate it without any hesitation, he smiled and said, "Hey, brother must have prepared it for me!"
Qi Muxue sat quietly at the stern of the boat. He was dressed in white clothes that surpassed the snow, with a silver and white belt around his waist, and his black hair was half tied behind him like silk and satin. The breeze blew through and lifted strands of hair, like a fairy who had strayed into the world.
Han Dougeng couldn't help but look a few more times, Qi Luo tilted his head and said, "Xiaosheng, are you looking at my apprentice?"
Han Dougeng pulled his sleeves and wiped the residue from the corners of his mouth, "No."
"Really?"
"That's natural! No one in this world is as handsome as my elder brother! What's there to see!"
Qi Luo pursed his lips and smiled, "Indeed."
"That's right, Mr. Huiyuluo thinks so too! Hehe! It seems that we are gentlemen who see the same thing!" Han Dougeng said proudly, as if he was the one being praised.
Qi Luo said again: "Then...you like your elder brother?"
Han Dougeng said without hesitation, "Naturally!"
"Oh~"
Qi Luo's 'Oh' was cadenced, and Han Dougeng blushed when he realized it, and he explained: "One is happy but not the other, regardless of national boundaries and other prejudices, there is no one in the world who doesn't like my elder brother!"
"Oh~ Then why are you blushing?"
Qi Luo laughed so badly, Han Dugeng stared and said: "You are not allowed to blaspheme my elder brother!"
Qi Muxue said thoughtfully: "Master seems to be very happy today, but I didn't expect Wu Jianshen to come out to swim in the lake with such leisure and elegance."
As soon as I made a joke about that person, my apprentice immediately stopped him, Qi Luo shook his head: "I don't know either."
"Oh~"
The same cadence, with four twists and turns.
Qi Luo said: "I heard that the general's mansion has countless concubines and beauties are like a cloud, so what Hongling's first talent is in his mansion, and Princess Tianhong seems to like him too, this General Zhongli is also very lucky!"
"It can't compare to Wu Jianshen. I heard that someone invited Wu Jianshen to enjoy the flowers last month. Wu Jianshen seems to have accepted the invitation. The two even went for a night tour. Everyone said that they are both talented and beautiful, and they were made in heaven."
"Wu Ziyang looks great, there are not a few people who admire him."
Qi Muxue was a little surprised, she bowed her head and said nothing.
But the two people outside the barrier were still fighting fiercely, the entire huge lake was violently ups and downs like a gust of wind, the sword energy cut the lake surface over and over again, and the splashed water turned into sharp weapons and collided with each other!
Although the sky was sunny, it suddenly rained heavily. Wu Ziyang held a sword across his chest, took a raindrop from the sword, and then pushed it suddenly, and the raindrop instantly turned into a sharp weapon and shot towards Zhong Li'an!
Zhongli'an waved his sword sideways towards the lake, and a water barrier was erected to block the rain needles!Then he caught the sword rain with his backhand, and after turning around, the rain needle shot towards Wu Ziyang at a faster speed.Wu Ziyang held the sword to quickly block from left to right, and shot down all the rain needles.
The two put their swords back into their sheaths at the same time, and Zhong Li'an bowed his hands to Wu Ziyang and saluted: "Zhong Li'an has been taught, thank you Wu Jianshen."
Wu Ziyang said lightly: "You don't need to thank me." He took out a golden token from his pocket and said, "Here's the token, it's up to you whether you go or not."
"Thank you." Zhong Li'an looked at the token, and saw the words 'Moonless Valley' engraved on the token.He put away the token, and then flew in the direction of Xiaozhu and Han Dougeng.
Qi Luo retracted the barrier, and the two fell back into the boat. He said to Zhong Li'an, "I watched a big show today, and it was really enjoyable. General, how about I do a few tricks with you?"
Wu Ziyang said mercilessly: "Qimen formation is incomprehensible in the eyes of the people in the world, but if you use it on me and him, if you don't use the heart-killing formation, you will be defeated within a moment."
Seeing Wu Ziyang dismantling him, Qi Luo was not annoyed, he hissed and said: "Tch, boring. There is a golden house in the formation, there is Yan Ruyu in the formation, the beauty is like a cloud, warm and soft, don't you want to stop?" try?"
Wu Ziyang's face darkened in an instant, and after a while, he squeezed out a few words between his teeth: "No, use it."
"Then next time you come, I'll give you a different flavor? Yan thin ring fat, or... change to something enchanting?"
Several people were in the boat, Wu Ziyang's face was dark, Zhong Li'an was about to persuade him, Qi Muxue raised his hand to stop him, and saw him reach out to take off his hair tie and hand it to Zhong Li'an, saying: "This hair tie is temporarily stored with yours. , I will come to retrieve it in a few days, okay?"
Zhong Li'an looked at Qi Muxue with some puzzlement, although he couldn't see his eyes, but seeing Qi Muxue's face was full of seriousness, he took it and solemnly said: "Okay."
When Zhong Li'an fulfilled his promise, the ribbon wrapped around Zhong Li'an's left wrist in a volley, Zhong Li'an was a little surprised and said: "It looks like it's alive."
"Well, it has a name, Wuhen." Qi Muxue said.
"Boy." Qi Luo glanced at the ribbon on Zhong Li'an's wrist and raised his head, he put away the smile that had been hanging on his face, and said sternly, "If this belt is destroyed, I will crush you to the ends of the earth! "
Chapter 033 Slippery Pants
Qi Muxue, his master and Wu Ziyang had already bid farewell and left, leaving Zhongli'an and the others on a boat on the lake.
Looking at the lake, Han Dougeng flattened his mouth and said, "Unfortunately, I didn't see the water fairy..."
"Shuixianzi, do you know what a shuixianzi looks like?" Xiao Zhu asked him with a disdainful glance.
"Naturally I know!" Han Dougeng immediately shook his head and said, "A bit icy is not flattering, three points are proud and unassuming; gorgeous and natural are true colors, pure and handsome are true faces; slim and graceful are better than emeralds, and hibiscus is enchanting. Narcissus, do you understand?" After he finished speaking, he looked at Xiaozhu with an expression that you don't understand anything.
Xiao Zhu rolled his eyes at him, and said: "I only know that there is a water monster in the water, with a green face and long fangs, five feet long hair, but a graceful figure, who only eats you! Be careful, it will drag you to the bottom of the lake and eat you!"
Han Dougeng stared wide-eyed: "You are talking nonsense! How could the water fairy be a water monster!"
"Believe it or not, I've seen it with my own eyes. The water monster just flicked its hair, pierced a big hole in its body, rolled it up, and dragged it into the water."
"Hmph! Made it up!" Han Dougeng said, turning his head away, not wanting to see Xiaozhu.
Zhong Li'an bowed his head and wondered what he was thinking about. After a while, he looked at his left wrist. The ribbon was wrapped around his wrist obliquely, and the ribbon seemed to be shining brightly.
Han Dougeng stepped onto Zhong Lian's side of the boat and came up curiously: "Brother, what is this, why is it still moving?"
Zhong Li'an: "I don't know."
"Oh, but big brother is so powerful! He even tied with the Sword God!"
Zhong Li'an shook his head and said truthfully: "No, he is teaching me about swordsmanship."
Han Dougeng thought that Zhong Li'an was being modest, so he said again: "Then what did the sword god give to elder brother?"
Zhong Li'an took out the token and handed it to Han Dougeng, Han Dougeng looked at it and said in surprise: "The entry and exit order for Moonless Valley?"
Zhong Li'an: "Huh?"
Han Dougeng explained: "Brother may not know, this Moonless Valley is not located in the territory of Tianhong. The difference between it and Qimen is that Qimen is still in Tianhong, but ordinary people can't find it. But this Moonless Valley But it’s different, Moonless Valley is located on an island that is unoccupied, and they have occasional contacts with Qimen. They used to only need to take a boat to get there, but later with the help of Qimen, they set up a formation and changed the rules. Those who order are not allowed to enter."
Moonless Valley...
Zhong Li'an's thoughts turned, Guang seemed to have mentioned Moonless Valley before.
Several people paddled back to the shore, and Han Dougeng said again: "It is said that there is a library pavilion in Moonless Valley, which is the dream of all scholars and martial arts practitioners in the world! It is said that the library pavilion is as big as a city, so Moonless Valley is also called Golden Island, which is a metaphor for many books. However, I heard that the owner of the valley is very stubborn, and Wu Jianshen handles everything in the valley, and the owner of the valley is happy and happy everywhere. However, in this world, the only As far as sects are concerned, apart from this Moonless Valley, there is really no single sect that can compete with Qimen."
Zhong Li'an asked suspiciously: "Since it's on an island, why isn't it called Moonless Island?"
"Hey, it wasn't changed by the current Gu owner! It used to be called Wuyue Island, but he didn't think it sounded good, so he changed it to Gu. What do you mean? I saw a sentence in the book, 'Gu Yu bamboo shoots and tea are beautiful, and the wind and chrysanthemums are sweet and plump. He said that he liked this sentence very much, so he changed it, and beat up the person who opposed his name change! This person has a bad personality, a bad temper, vicious methods, and he is idle, flirting everywhere, showing mercy everywhere. I heard that he likes to drink Ning'an goji berries soaked in dew, and he also drinks it every day. In my opinion, he has insufficient kidney qi, but it is a pity that the deficiency cannot be replenished. Besides, he is not only good at women, but also good at Longyang. People sick."
After talking a lot, Han Dougeng suddenly remembered the Zhong family rules that Zhong Li'an said last time, he immediately raised his hand and slapped himself, then lowered his head and said: "The eighth rule of the Zhong family rules, chewing the root of the tongue, Slander others, fifty whips. Brother, I accept the punishment."
He slapped him so hard that the right side of his face suddenly swelled up.
Zhong Li'an was stunned for a moment, then took out the ointment, without saying a word, gently applied Han Dougeng's swollen face.
Seeing Zhong Li'an silently looking at his side face, Han Dougeng called out tremblingly: "Brother, I didn't intend to use this slap for those fifty lashes, so what, little bamboo." The boat had landed, and Han Dougeng said Hurry up and get off the boat, lie down on a big rock, look at Xiaozhu and say, "You come to punish me."
Zhongli'an stood still, and after a while, he took out a soft black whip from his waist and handed it to Xiaozhu, "Punishment." With one breath, he controlled his strength and whipped the whip down.
This whip is more than four feet long, it can be struck, whipped, bound, and hooked. If Zhongli'an uses it, a single whip can penetrate an ordinary person.If whipped, the skin will be ripped apart and the flesh will be torn to the bone.
Although Xiaozhu was not good at using the whip and restrained his strikes, Han Dougeng's back was still bloody and bloody after fifty lashes.
"Xiaozhu, go back and give him a copy of the Zhong family's family rules so that he can memorize them by heart." Zhong Li'an said, turned and left.
"Yes."
"Thank you, brother." Han Dougeng grinned.
"Still laughing." Xiao Zhu laughed as well.
He, Han Dougeng, has officially become a member of the Zhong family from now on. (Reminder: For those who feel unclear about the Zhong family's family rules and Zhonglimen's family, Gu Deng will explain it later.)
The few people lost their interest in swimming in the lake, so they went back to their residence, only to find that Zhong Li'an hadn't come back.
Uncle Fu stopped Xiao Zhu who was going to find Zhongli An and told him: "If you find you, just follow him from a distance, and if you can't find him, come back first."
Xiao Zhu nodded in agreement.
Zhong Li'an did not go back, because he felt something strange about his body, it was a very strange feeling.
Since the last 'sacrifice' by the snake group until now, just after the initial wound healed, he felt a little uncomfortable.Later, maybe I got used to it or got used to it, and I didn't feel any strange feeling anymore.
But just now, the moment the ribbon was wound up, he felt his blood throbbing!
After parting with Han Dougeng and Xiao Zhu, he found an absolutely secret and secluded place in this barren mountain and wild ridge, and took off his outer shirt.
Suddenly there was a pain in his chest, Zhong Li'an immediately pulled down the collar of his shirt, only to see dense agitation like bugs wriggling around the scar from the original injury!Then the frequency of this agitation centered on the tendons at the scar, and then quickly spread to the limbs!
Severe pain suddenly swept through his whole body, Zhong Li'an clenched his teeth.
At this time, the ribbon began to glow softly, and the pain seemed to have decreased a little, but it was just a drop in the bucket.
Zhong Li'an didn't let out the slightest cry of pain, he was leaning against the big tree to hold on, but he slipped to the side due to his inability to support.He felt as if he fell into an ice cave for a while, and he felt as if he was being roasted on the fire for a while, and the hot and cold were constantly alternating.
After a while, something fell on his face, Zhong Lian frowned and opened his eyes.
Qi Muxue was wiping his sweat carefully.
"Mu...Mu Xue." Zhong Li'an said with difficulty.
The clothes on her body were already wet with sweat, Qi Muxue stretched out her hand and untied Zhong Li'an's shirt.But Zhong Li'an has been so weak since the onset of the symptoms, he can't even clenched his fists, and he can't stop Qi Muxue.Seeing him blushing, he said, "Don't..."
Qi Muxue ignored him, and wiped off the sweat on his body carefully, and after wiping off the sweat, Qi Muxue stretched her hand to the waist of his trousers, Zhong Li'an was extremely embarrassed!
In the past, he would not have thought about it, but last time he dreamed that he was like Mu Xue, and he felt sorry for him at the same time.
Zhong Li'an raised his hand, and found that he could lift it up, so he quickly grabbed Qi Muxue's hand that was already on his trouser waist and said, "I'm fine." Even his tongue was knotted!
After hearing this, Qi Muxue withdrew her hand, and Zhong Li'an breathed a sigh of relief.
With his physical strength gradually recovering, Zhongli Anyue calculated the time of the attack, and it took about a quarter of an hour.
"Mu Xue, why are you back?" Zhong Li'an quickly sat up, hurriedly picked up his clothes and put them on himself, Qi Muxue just watched him flustered, without making a sound.
Seeing this, Zhong Li'an couldn't help but slow down his movements: "Mu Xue...are you angry with me?"
Qi Muxue remained silent, he stretched out his hand to lift half of the ribbon covering his eyes, then raised his eyes to look at Zhong Li'an and said, "Does it still hurt?"
Zhong Li'an shook his head.
"General, I have never seen this symptom before."
Zhong Li smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just that I can't move for a quarter of an hour."
Qi Muxue said: "I will take the general to find Master."
"It's okay, there's no need." Zhong Li'an said and got up, but he never thought that Qi Muxue had torn his trouser belt loose just now, and with his sudden stop, the trousers fell to his knees in an instant!
Zhong Li'an blushed immediately!Luckily the underpants didn't slip off!
Think of him as a dignified general, since he was a child, he has been well-behaved, and he has never done a single rude thing!I didn't talk about the dream last time, but this time it came out again!
Zhong Li'an quickly pulled up his trousers and fastened them tightly.
Qi Muxue pulled down her eyeband to cover her clear purple eyes in her left eye and said, "Do you want to show off your majesty, General?"
Don't look at Zhong Lian's invincible armor on the battlefield and everyone's awe, in fact, he has a thin skin!At this time, his handsome face was red and purple, purple and red again, and he was suppressed into a purple eggplant.
"That... that... that... that... I... I..."
Not only did it become a purple eggplant, but it also stuttered.
Qi Muxue couldn't see any emotion on his face, so he said calmly: "Your Excellency, you don't need to explain too much. It's not that you haven't got a clue, and I'm also a man. What's more, there are so many beauties around Your Excellency. I haven't seen any scenes before. It's nothing. So ashamed."
There are as many beauties as a cow's hair? ?
But he had never seen this scene before!
Zhong Li'an forcibly suppressed the heat, and his complexion returned to normal after a while.He looked at the position of Qi Muxue's eyes, thought for a moment and said, "Mu Xue, you are actually... not blind?"
Qi Muxue paused in her heart, and saw him calmly said: "Yes."
The blush that had just faded from Zhong Li'an's face suddenly reappeared.
Chapter 034
Qi Muxue wanted to take Zhong Li'an to Qimen, but Zhong Li'an refused.
Qimen has its own rules, and Zhong Li'an cannot let Qi Muxue break the rules because of him.What's more, for a reclusive family like Qimen, it is better to have less contact with the outside world.
Qi Muxue couldn't hold back Zhong Li'an and left alone.Zhong Li'an also returned to his current residence.
As soon as she came back, Luo Qingyan hugged Zhongli'an's waist, and Han Dugeng rolled his eyes and pulled him out: "What are you doing, what are you doing!"
Luo Qingmin's ears were reddish, she didn't make a sound, and stepped aside.
Uncle Fu took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Li'an, saying: "I just received it."
Zhong Li'an reached out to take it, without shy away from it, and directly unpacked it.
The letter was very long, and Zhong Li'an showed no emotion on his face, but the knuckles of his fingers turning white while holding the letter showed how hard he was using it.
After reading it, he held the letter in the palm of his hand, and when he let go, the letter turned into dust and fell from his fingertips.
Fu Bo sensed that something was wrong, as long as Zhong Li'an's face became calmer, it meant that the matter was getting more serious.
"Han Dougeng, you accompany Luohou to walk around the street." Fu Bo said.
Han Dougeng has always understood other people's eyes very well, otherwise he would not be alive now.He pulled Luo Qingmin away and said, "Let's go, I'm in a good mood today, young master, so I reluctantly take you out for a stroll."
Luo Qingyan glanced at Zhongli'an, then followed Han Dugeng and left.
The two people who stayed in the same place entered a room one after the other. Uncle Fu asked, "My lord, what's the matter? Did something happen?"
Zhong Li'an lowered his eyes: "Zhong Jiajun..."
"what happened?"
"I wanted to advance by retreating, so I handed over the Tiger Talisman." Zhong Li'an said.
Uncle Fu was stunned: "Young Master handed over the Tiger Talisman?"
Zhong Li'an took a deep breath and said, "Yes."
In the current situation, even if he doesn't hand it over, that person will think of a way to make him offer it with both hands, so it's better to hand it over himself.Faber was silent.
The Zhong family army was a team assembled when Zhong Li'an's father was still alive. There were not many people, but they only obeyed the orders of the Zhong family.Originally, the imperial court tabooed forming troops privately, but there would be constant wars on the frontier, and the team had less than 100 people, so that person just turned a blind eye.However, the country is peaceful and the people are peaceful, that person naturally wants to remove this thorn in his side.
After Zhong Li'an was injured, his life was hanging by a thread, he was half dead, he slept for a long time, and after waking up his body was weak, and the Zhong Mansion had already fallen.He originally thought that as long as he handed over his power, the Zhong family's army would have to work hard even if they didn't have any credit. Maybe that guy would want to arrange them well and arrange errands for them for the sake of their contribution to the country.Unexpectedly...
"A few people were locked up in the wrong place, and others were recruited." Zhong Li'an said.
Uncle Fu sighed: "It doesn't matter if they were recruited, but those who were locked up in the wrong place probably lost half their lives."
"The letter said that they were imprisoned for collaborating with the enemy and treason. The newly promoted general said that these people belonged to the former General Zhen Guo, and they dared not dispose of them without authorization. They have already been handed over to Dali Temple."
"How many people are there?"
"Three people." Zhong Li'an clenched his fists after finishing speaking.
Fu Bo said: "How reliable is this letter, and who wrote it if it is signed."
Zhong Li'an shook his head.
But even if it was fake, he still had to go back to find out the truth, after all, they were all brothers who followed him through life and death!
Zhong Li'an said: "The Zhong family's army will not betray their country for glory, I trust them."
Fu Bo was silent, and after a while he said: "If... I said if, they really did this..."
Zhongli Anlue lowered his eyes: "I will carry out the execution myself, and then I will take the blame." He came to the window and looked down, just in time to see the backs of Luo Qingmin and Han Dugeng going away.
Forber said: "It cannot be ruled out that this is a trap, and its purpose is obvious."
Yes, given the character of the Zhong family, they would definitely investigate this matter after receiving this letter, but if those people did not have sufficient evidence, how could they raise this matter to the heavens and imprison them in Dali Temple!
This is clearly a situation. Although the Zhong Family Army belonged to the imperial army, they obeyed the orders of the Zhongfu, but were discovered by the new general to be collaborating with the enemy and treason. Isn't this a sign that the Zhongfu is collaborating with the enemy and treason?
Zhong Li'an thought about it for a moment, he said that the road going south was so calm, only people came to die occasionally, so they were waiting for him here?
"Uncle Fu, let's pack up and leave for Beijing tonight."
"Yes, Naluohou..."
Zhong Li'an said: "Send someone to send him back to Beijing, and it will be bad for him to be with us."
"Yes, that Xiaosong..."
Xiaosong didn't write a letter for a long time, although it happened sometimes in the past, but an ominous premonition arose in Zhongli'an's heart.He said: "I have sent people to look for him in the past few days."
Before Zhong Li'an sent Xiao Song out to check on Qi Muxue's information, but without success, he asked him to check on the situation of various industries.In the beginning, there were occasional news from Komatsu stating the specific situation of various industries, but there was no news after that.Because Xiaosong used to be forgetful, and sometimes he forgot to report something and reported it together next time, but it was not a very important matter, so Zhong Li'an just let it go.
A few days ago when he was thinking about Xiaosong, his eyelids jumped, and he sent someone to look for Xiaosong.
Uncle Fu retreated to pack up his belongings and arrange to return to Beijing. When Han Dougeng and Luo Qingmin came back, Xiaozhu also came back.
Luo Qingyan naturally did not agree to be separated from Zhong Li'an, Zhong Li'an had no choice but to agree to take him along with her.
"Brother." Before the trip, Han Dougeng called Zhong Li'an, "I'll go find Obsidian."
Zhong Li'an remembered that last time Han Dougeng called Xiaosong like that, he said: "I have sent someone to look for him."
Han Dougeng patted his chest, "I'm here, don't worry, brother, he will definitely be found."
His eyes were full of firmness, and before Zhong Li'an could speak, Han Dougeng said again: "Obsidian has always existed as the right arm of the eldest brother. Although I don't understand why he was hostile to me last time, I can figure it out." Zhongguan Yao. He is so important to elder brother, which shows that my trip is extraordinary. And I have followed elder brother for so long, but I have not achieved anything at all. I really want to help elder brother solve problems, please give elder brother a chance."
Han Dougeng is very flexible in dealing with people and is a rare talent.Zhong Li'an thought for a while and said, "Follow me."
The two walked into Zhong Li'an's resting room, and Zhong Li'an took out two books from the packed package and handed them to him, "These two books, one is about martial arts and the other is about swordsmanship, both of them are very suitable for you. Practice, you take it, study hard and practice hard, and in no time, your martial arts will go up to several floors."
Han Dougeng took the two books and howled, "Brother! You are my reborn parents!"
"Be careful along the way. If you encounter someone who is invincible, don't force yourself." Zhong Li'an instructed Han Dougeng to take out another map, "The red dots on the map are all properties in the mansion. The last time Xiaosong contacted me It's in Jingzhou area."
Han Dougeng nodded and took the map and opened it. After reading it, Zhong Lian handed him a bundle and a simple token and said: "There are some gold and silver in it, and the journey is far away. You take it with you. If it is not enough, take out the token of the Zhong family. Just go ask the shopkeepers for some."
"Brother..." Han Dougeng bit his lower lip and wanted to cry.
Zhong Li'an patted him on the shoulder and said: "You must be careful in your actions, and you must not neglect to study the mental techniques and sword manuals given to you."
"Yes!"
"Go."
Han Dougeng knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists, solemnly said: "Brother, take care!" Then he strode away.
After Han Dougeng left, several people also set off soon.
Inside the carriage, Uncle Fu said: "My lord, although Han Dougeng is a little irritable and has a quick temper, he should be safe in his work, so don't worry too much, lord."
Zhong Li'an nodded.
Luo Qingyan pinched Zhong Li'an's sleeve, trying to say something to comfort him, but he swallowed the words again.Zhong Li'an thought he was afraid, so he reached out and patted his head and said, "It's okay, I'm here."
Luo Qingyan nodded heavily.
At the same time, Jingzhong...
"The frontier is in emergency! The frontier is in emergency! The Tianhan Dynasty sent millions of soldiers from the sky and captured Yunzhong overnight! The life and death of General Wen stationed in Yunzhong is unknown!!"
"Tianhan??? Tianhan has always been friendly with me! How could it be possible to send troops to capture my Chaoyunzhong!!"
"The frontier is urgent! The frontier is urgent! Jingyi raises 50 troops..."
"The frontier is urgent! The frontier is urgent! Xicheng sent troops..."
With three urgent calls in a row, the Chinese and Chinese military officials were shocked!Not to mention that Tianhan had never sent troops to attack other countries, but Jingyi and Xihou had been defeated by General Zhong before, so why did they start jumping around again!
"Military emergency! Military emergency!"
The beating hearts of the crowd were not yet stable, and then there was another cry of distress!
"The Tianhan army is like a fierce tiger crossing the river, heading south all the way! The iron hooves have already stepped on Jingzhou!"
"What! Jingzhou fell so quickly!?"
"It's just about stepping! It's not about falling!"
"Is there a difference?"
……
The civil and military officials immediately whispered to each other.
Suddenly someone said: "Yes! General Zhong! Where is General Zhong!"
Someone tugged at the person who made the sound: "It's General Zhongli."
That's right, it's not General Zhong, but General Zhongli.
The person who made the sound shut up, and it was obvious that the other country saw Tianhong cut off its wings and attacked.
The courtiers below were in a mess, but the person on the dragon chair at the top was still calm. He passed by all the courtiers, and all the civil and military officials fell silent.
Nangong Xuanyuan said in a deep voice: "What's your opinion, dear friends?"
"I implore the emperor to urgently summon General Zhongli to go out!"
Seeing someone raised their heads, all the officials said in unison: "I implore the emperor to urgently call General Zhongli to go out!"
The faces of the people on the dragon chair were gloomy. He single-handedly pulled out all the generals stationed in Jingzhou and Yunzhong, but now they were defeated in one blow. He still wants to invite that boy from Zhongfu to go out!
He turned his head to the side, looked at Nangong Muyun who had been silent all this time, and said, "What does the prince think?"
"minister……"
As soon as Nangong Muyun came out to speak, he saw the envoy from Jingzhou tremblingly said: "Qi...Qi to the emperor, the general of Tianhan said..."
Seeing him hesitating to speak, the emperor was furious, slapped the dragon chair and said, "It's not easy to talk! Drag it out and chop it up!"
"The emperor spares the emperor! The Han general said that as long as Tianhong deposes General Zhongli, he will never be hired! They...they will withdraw their troops!"
Someone in the court said angrily: "Then why didn't you say it just now!"
"That's General Zhongli... villain... villain dare not..."
The people on the dragon chair had a panoramic view of the faces of all the officials, Nangong Muyun said: "I don't think so, let alone whether the Han will really withdraw his troops that day, just the act of dismissing General Zhongli, how much more difficult is it to go to the The hearts of soldiers and generals on the battlefield! The Zhong family has devoted themselves to Tianhong for generations, and the emperor's change of his surname has already chilled the general's heart! Is this the fate of Zhongliang?"
Nangong Xuanyuan smashed the handrail of the dragon head with a palm: "Presumptuous! Are you accusing me of doing something wrong?!"
"I dare not."
The emperor at the top was furious, and the people below did not dare to vent their anger. Nangong Xuanyuan narrowed his eyes and said, "Do you love the same thoughts as my good prince?"
Prime Minister You hurriedly stepped forward: "I thought that Tianhan and I, Da Tianhong, have been friends for many years, and they would not say that contradictory words! Besides, when there is a war, the people will bear the brunt of the disaster. If General Zhongli's glory and wealth are exchanged for For the well-being of the people of Tianhong, I believe that General Zhongli understands the righteousness. If he knew, he would definitely ask the emperor to depose him. What's more, the enemy army is coming so fiercely this time, who knows if the Zhong family army is responsible for it? !"
"My minister agrees."
"My minister agrees."
……
Seeing that more and more people were seconding the proposal, Prime Minister Zuo stepped forward: "I think it is impossible, even if Tian Han really withdraws this time, how can he know what he will ask next time! Hong bowed his head and proclaimed himself a minister! So what to do! This is clearly a trick to sow discord! Your Majesty, you must not fall for it!"
"My minister agrees."
"My minister seconded the proposal."
"Please think twice, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Zuo knelt down and bowed his head.
Seeing this, Prime Minister You also quickly knelt down: "Please think twice, Your Majesty."
Crash, all the officials knelt down and bowed their heads.
Nangong Xuanyuan's face was cloudy and cloudy, and after a while, he said loudly: "Declaration of my will! Today's general Zhong Li'an is neglected in management, and Zhong's army has three traitors who seek glory! Nian Zhongli'an has made countless contributions in the battle for Tianhong, and the death penalty can be avoided. There is no escape from the crime of living! Dismiss him from the post of general! Deprive him of his title! Relegate to common people! Retire from the court!!"
Nangong Muyun was shocked: "Father!!"
Nangong Xuanyuan stood up, waved his robe, and left with his hands behind his back.
Chapter 035
"Your Majesty is merciful. Some members of the Zhong family army colluded with the enemy and betrayed the country for glory, but the Emperor did not behead them to show the public."
"Thanks to General Zhongli."
"Shh, don't mention the words Zhong or Zhongli when you're outside."
"exactly."
……
As soon as Zhong Li'an returned to Beijing, he saw that his mansion was sealed off and surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside.
He got off the horse, Xiao Zhu stepped forward and said: "My lord...this..."
"Walk."
Several people turned their horses around and beat their horses to Biezhuang, but the Biezhuang where they usually lived was also stolen.
They all wore masks on their faces, so they found an inn to stay.
Zhong Li'an was handsome and generous, the shopkeeper smiled and told Xiao Er to treat them well.
After asking for a few rooms, Xiaozhu asked Xiaoer: "My little brother, may I ask what happened to the General's Mansion?"
Xiao Er looked at Xiao Zhu suspiciously, as if he didn't understand why he asked this question.
Seeing this, Xiao Zhu said: "We are traveling merchants, we came to Beijing to do some business, today we passed by Zhongli General's Mansion in the east of the city, and saw that the General's Mansion was surrounded, so we wanted to ask."
Xiao Er and Yi Yuan
