"Stop thinking like that again, do you hear me?" Bai Bingchen's eyes sharpened, he pinched Mei Shao's cheek, forcing him to look directly at him.

Mei Shao gritted her teeth without giving in and said, "Then can you guarantee that you will never take any risks in the future, and always put your own safety first?"

Bai Bingchen avoided this question, his eyes were deep, and he said, "If I find you doing this again..."

"How? Are you going to kill me? Are you willing?" Mei Shao turned her head and broke free from the shackles, leaned over and pressed Bai Bingchen under her body, restraining his moving body, stroking the jade wrench in her hand Rubbing his neck, he said softly: "You can gather your energy and reject me once, but you can't guarantee that you can reject me a second time. If I see you fall into a weak-willed and unconscious situation again, I will Take advantage of the void and tie our lives tightly together, so that you will never try to break free in this life. Yanfang, I said last time, don't force me, I can give up anything, I can do anything Can do it."

Bai Bingchen looked at him calmly, and the two stared at each other silently, neither of them was willing to take a step back.

Bai Bingchen glanced sideways, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Mei Shao's skirt, pulled it fiercely in front of him, leaned his upper body slightly, bit Mei Shao's earlobe, and sighed softly: "I promise you ...don't look at the window."

Mei Shao suppressed her gaze, and just about to say something, suddenly a tingling pain came from her earlobe, Bai Bingchen bit the black bead and pulled it, then bit her own lip, and backed away with some blood on it.

"Get out!" Bai Bingchen shouted in a low voice.

Mei Shao's gaze became complicated, and a hard object hit his palm, Bai Bingchen took out a piece from his cuff and pressed it into his palm.

The palm moved slightly, rolled the thing into the cuff and pressed it down. Mei Shao held Bai Bingchen's skirt, leaned over and bit his cheek, pressed hard on Bai Bingchen's chest with his hand, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and said: "My temper has grown a lot, and I have learned to bite people. Would you like me to help you recall who was pestering me last night and refused to let go? Huh? Master Bai?"

Bai Bingchen looked at him with resentment in his eyes, and firmly grabbed his skirt to prevent him from tearing it open. The two of them were pushing and pulling, when a suppressed cough came from the room.

Mei Shao's sharp gaze slanted, glanced at Ren Heming who suddenly appeared in the room, narrowed his eyes slightly, loosened the hand that was restraining Bai Bingchen, straightened up, and asked: "Master Hou seems to have come a little early?"

Ren Heming glanced at the dried blood on the ground and the messy bed, and pointed out: "It seems that Mr. Bai is not very cooperative. One night plus one morning is not enough for General Mei to torment?"

Mei Shao turned around, blocked his view of Bai Bingchen, and said arrogantly: "You don't need to explain this kind of thing to Lord Hou."

"I want to talk to him." Ren Heming took a step forward and raised his eyebrows.

"I'm afraid there is no need for this." Mei Shao rolled up his cuffs, showing the scar on his wrist calmly, and said, "I'm afraid that it would be bad if he hurt Lord Hou. I have already pried what Master Hou wanted to know." It's almost there. Why don't we go out and talk?"

Ren Heming followed his movements and looked at Mei Shao's face, standing where he was and didn't let go.

Mei Shao took a step forward, and with the cover of his sleeves, he covered a corner of the jade plaque that Bai Bingchen gave him just now, and showed it to Ren Heming, who then nodded.

"Master Hou, please send someone reliable to watch him. I'm afraid he'll run away because he's so unruly." Mei Shao turned her head and took two steps, pinched Bai Bingchen's face and kissed him hard, barely audible in his ear Said: "Don't move, wait for me to come back."

Bai Bingchen looked at the back of him and Ren Heming leaving, heaved a sigh of relief, and slowly tidied up the messy bed, his eyes were slightly cold, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

-

Going out of the east gate of Wu Du, you can see the boundless sea area. This is the easternmost place of Li Kingdom, and it is also a field that Ren Heming has never set foot in.

He inhaled the salty sea breeze intoxicatedly, and looked at the distant island, with greed and madness in his eyes.

"Yan Jin, Chong Jin." Ren Heming glanced around at the two people beside him, waiting for his subordinates to launch the boat that was temporarily transferred from Nanyang, and said, "Follow me to see the extreme east of Li Kingdom." Is the scene really as intoxicating as imagined?"

Mei Shao's eyes dimmed for a moment, she glanced at the number of soldiers on board, met Sun Zhe's eyes, and followed him onto the ship.

In the water battle, Ren Heming's warship suffered heavy losses. He was in a hurry to transfer the ship this time. The generals stationed in Nanyang reluctantly picked two or three ships that could be launched, and it took another two days. After boarding the boat, it was almost dusk.

The lights on the boat were already lit, and the soldiers on the boat also raised their torches. Mei Shao took a rough look and estimated that there were about two to three hundred people in this group.

The sea is very calm, the sky is very dull, there is not even a trace of wind, only the ripples of the ships clearing the way one after another, one ship presses on the other, and is soon submerged by the sea again.

Standing on the board of the ship and looking far and wide, the lighthouse on the island is getting closer and closer, and finally stops at the coast as the ship anchors.

There was no expected army resistance, and the island was even quieter, with no lights, barren and dark, and it didn't look like it was inhabited.

After going ashore for about a few hundred meters, they saw a tall stone arch, standing abruptly in the grass, with several wooden bows and crossbows that had been in disrepair messily placed on both sides, half of the wooden crossbow body was rotten , the rusty steel shaft was submerged in the half-person-high weeds.

The back of the stone archway is empty, with neither houses nor people. The entire island is boundless except for the rolling hills, and there is no place where millions of Tibetan soldiers can be seen.

The empty wind passed through Ren Heming's hair, he grabbed a handful of air out of thin air, followed by more than 300 people, standing on this uninhabited land, the corners of his mouth were slightly pursed, stretched into a straight line.

"This is the place where Zhao Zhen hid his troops?" Ren Heming's tone rose, and his words were full of doubts.

Mei Shao also frowned, Bai Bingchen only gave him a jade plaque, and did not specifically mention the situation on the island, he had already made plans to go ashore and face off, who would have thought that what was displayed in front of him was such a picture Scenes.

Sun Zhe's eyes paused for a moment at the two crossbows standing on both sides of the stone archway like stone lions, and then walked over with everyone's puzzled eyes.

He tapped the rotten wood lightly, touched the rust on the shaft and twisted it, then reached into the belly of the crossbow hidden in the grass, moved his wrist twice, and there was a clear sound of gears turning. Especially noticeable in open spaces.

Seeing this, Ren Heming raised his eyebrows.

Sun Zhe walked to the crossbow on the other side. This time, he didn't do much testing, and just reached in. The sound of the iron chain swimming seemed to come from the ground, and the weeds on the ground also shook. .

Sun Zhe hurriedly avoided, Ren Heming and Mei Shao also took two steps forward, and only then did they get a glimpse of the barren underground.

There was a crack on the ground directly opposite the stone archway, like a door growing on the ground, opened from both sides, revealing a rectangular hole where two people can walk side by side.

The layers of steel, soil, and weeds can be clearly seen on the cracked cross-section. At first glance, it was artificially constructed and then disguised naturally. Therefore, although they stood under the stone archway for a long time, they were not able to notice it. wrong.

Ren Heming glanced at the dark entrance of the cave, the tight stone ladder was faintly visible on the cave wall, and he praised Sun Zhe: "Yan Jin has been in charge of Pingdong for many years, and even the Jiang family's organ skills are thoroughly learned, really clever .”

Sun Zhe smiled slightly, and said: "Back then, someone anonymously approached Jiang's family to open several institutions. The blueprints he gave were all separated, and I couldn't see the whole picture. Today, seeing that these two crossbows look familiar, I just wanted to try them out. Try it, but who knows that it is really the organ that the Jiang family beat back in the past. It made a fool of yourself in front of Lord Hou."

Ren Heming's brows were full of joy when he heard the words, and said: "In this case, the mechanism under the secret path is so clever, Yan Jin can also crack it?"

"Your Majesty's order, I would like to try my best."

Receiving Sun Zhe's words, Ren Heming breathed a sigh of relief, relaxed, waved his hand slightly, and called two small soldiers to clear the way.

Two young soldiers with fairly good skills tied ropes around their waists and went down the hole. After about a cup of tea, when there was a pulling force on the ropes, Ren Heming knew they had reached the bottom. several times.

Mei Shao couldn't understand the code words between them, only saw that Ren Heming had ordered a dozen people to go down with him, and guessed that it was the size of the leftovers in the pass.

There was no light in the corridor, and more than a dozen people climbed down step by step like stacking human ladders. Both Mei Shao and Sun Zhe were at the front together with Ren Heming. The two were very close, and Sun Zhe drew two paths behind Mei Shao , indicating his feelings, and then he wrote two words on the back: I, after.

Mei Shao coughed slightly to show understanding.

More than a dozen people landed on the ground one after another, and looking up, the sky was as big as a bowl cover.

The ground under their feet was soft, and there was a sticky sound of water every step they took. There was a faint light in the darkness. They walked out of a hole along the narrow passage, and a faint blue and dim light was revealed in front of their eyes.

Mei Shao slightly narrowed her eyes that had been in the dark for a long time, opened them cautiously, and was shocked by the scene in front of her.

The meandering canals converge one after another into a sparkling river in front of you, and the dots of blue light reflect with the ripples of the water, surrounding a complete, magnificent city, its walls made of gray-black granite, every day Ten steps away is a sentry post. Long-range bows and crossbows are embedded in the grooves of the city wall, and they are all arrows on the string, ready to go.

The point of the sharp arrow's cold light is the pieces of blue crystals on the top of the head - a rare product in the mine, and now they are all used for lighting. They are spread on the top of the stone. Dim light.

What's even more frightening is that, above the majestic city, there are two huge mechanism birds flying, their spread wings cast a huge black shadow, covering most of the city.As if suddenly alive, the dull mechanical sound echoed in the empty cave, and the machine bird that originally stood on the city wall slowly turned its head, its wooden eyes seemed to have substance, and looked at them on the opposite side of the river bank.

Mei Shao's back slowly went numb, and the wooden eyes of the mechanism bird were dull, but he felt that it was staring at him.

Or rather, the person driving behind it was watching him.
