life fate

Mu Zhen's words were too direct, Shen Jiansheng's ears turned red suddenly, and belatedly discovered the reason why he felt weird before.

Young Master Cheng, who went back to his room to write a letter, didn't know that Mu Zhen's words would reverse his fate, and he didn't forget to tease her when he came out, "Don't rush back before I've had enough fun."

Mu Zhen rolled her eyes at him, glanced at Shen Jiansheng whose ears were still red, and coughed lightly, "Then I'll clean it up."

Cheng Mubei turned his head to look at Shen Jiansheng, showing a meaningful smile, "Does Jiansheng want to rest for a while?"

Shen Jiansheng looked at the disheveled Cheng Mubei, remembered what Mu Zhen said before, and shook his head firmly, "Don't you still want to find Xuanying, let's go out and have a look."

Young Master Cheng was obviously a little disappointed, but he felt that there was still a lot of time, and he was not in a hurry, so he nodded, "That's fine."

Cheng Mubei dragged Shen Jiansheng around this small town in Beimo for a long time. Both of them had faces from the Central Plains, and they were handsome, attracting many people's attention along the way.The northern desert is desolate, and there are not many lively towns like this, so the two went to a slightly larger inn.The inn is already full, and they need to sit on the street. In the evening, the northern desert has a sense of vastness. The sky seems not far away, and the round and big sunset hangs on it. Without the dazzling light of the day, the light shines through a layer. Shaggy sides.The sunset spreads out, and there are flocks of birds passing by. It is a spectacular scene that is really difficult to describe.

The two ordered a roasted whole lamb, paired with the famous local spirits, and sat by the roadside.People from Beimo spoke with a tongue-rolling accent, and Cheng Mubei listened carefully to distinguish what the people next to him said, "Our king of Beimo...maybe it's going to die."

Another person answered, "There is only one princess in the direct line of the royal family, and I don't know how many side branches are watching!"

The guess in Cheng Mubei's heart was a bit solid, he raised his wine bowl and respected Shen Jiansheng, "Does Jiansheng like life here?"

Shen Jiansheng nodded, the life here seems to be slower than in the Central Plains, the life is simple and the people are honest, it is indeed a good place.In the afterglow of the setting sun, Shen Jiansheng's face was immersed in the soft light, very beautiful.Cheng Mubei couldn't help reaching out his hand to touch it, and before Shen Jiansheng could react, he withdrew his hand and put it on his lips for a soft kiss.

Shen Jiansheng: "..."

It is said that the black eagle will only inhabit the sacred mountain, and this legendary sacred mountain is a little far away from the town.A few days ago, Cheng Mubei also went to investigate, but he only stayed at the foot of the mountain and watched for a while, but he didn't see Xuanying.

Now the two decided to go up the mountain to explore. It was getting late at this time, and the night in Beimo was coming quickly. Just now, the sky was full of sunset, and it would get dark if they didn't pay attention.There is still a large temperature difference between day and night, and it is chilly to walk in the wild. The trees here are different from those in the Central Plains. Most of the leaves are awn-shaped, and there is no rattling sound when the night wind blows.

Cheng Mubei clasped Shen Jiansheng's hand, "I don't know who ever said that this black eagle can eat a tiger alive."

Shen Jiansheng didn't know why Cheng Mubei wanted to find Xuanying, so he nodded and looked carefully at the road under his feet.After all, there are many hunters in the northern desert, and traps are indispensable on this kind of mountain.

Cheng Mubei probably saw Shen Jiansheng's worry, and smiled, "This sacred mountain is a sacred place in the hearts of Beimo people, and people usually don't come up here, let alone come here to hunt."

This is even more worrying, okay... Before Shen Jiansheng could finish thinking, the slight sound of animal footsteps sounded in his ears.

Cheng Mubei also noticed it, shrugged, "It's good luck."

The two of them did not move rashly, as the rustling sound approached, a black figure appeared in front of them.It was a white tiger, its bright eyes were full of vigilance, its sharp teeth were exposed when it opened its mouth, and it even stuck out its tongue to lick it.

The white tiger, who had never seen a human being before, sized them up for a while, probably feeling bored, and walked away from them with his head held high.

The two: "..." It's good that Mr. Tiger doesn't want to talk to them, after all, a fight may attract more beasts, especially if the smell of blood disperses, it will be troublesome.

The holy mountain is not high, and the two quickly climbed to the top.There is a large altar on the top of the mountain, which is the tomb of the kings of Beimo. After their death, the corpses will be brought up by the princess. The princesses of the past are the most powerful wizards in Beimo. They can attract black eagles and peck at Beimo King's body.

People in Beimo think that the black eagle will bring the soul of the king of Beimo to heaven, and then the successive kings of Beimo will protect the people of Beimo in the sky.

But they didn't see the black eagle, but there were a few owls hanging upside down on the tree, making a "cuckoo" cry.Cheng Mubei was not disappointed either, he dragged Shen Jiansheng to find a cave, and went in to check the situation.

This is a man-made cave. After all, sometimes the funeral takes too long to go down the mountain, so someone may have specially dug a place where they can rest for one night.

The cave was quite spacious and clean, but Cheng Mubei was about to call Shen Jiansheng in, but found a person sitting in the corner of the cave, it was so dark that he couldn't see clearly, but he could hear the steady heartbeat.Cheng Mubei was still a little more vigilant, and took two steps slightly outside the cave, just as Shen Jiansheng walked in, "What's wrong?"

Cheng Mubei heard the heart beating faster in the corner, probably because he was a little scared when he was woken up.He took out a ghost-slaying blade and clasped it in his hand, then took out a torch, rubbed it with internal force and handed it to Shen Jiansheng.

The figure of the man curled up in the corner was suddenly elongated, and reflected unsteadily on the wall.

"Who's there?" Cheng Mubei asked.

The man's heart beat two beats faster, and he asked tentatively, "Cheng...Mu Bei?"

That's why Dolma.

Cheng Mubei's brows were tightened, which made it seem like Zhuoma didn't follow them here. Moreover, in the past few days, although this girl is a bit egotistical, her nature is not bad.

"Miss Dolma?" Cheng Mubei stretched out his hand to hold Shen Jiansheng, and took two steps forward.

Only then did Zhuoma stand up quickly, stepped forward in two steps, and knelt down in front of Cheng Mubei.She raised her face up, with tears in her eyes, which were a little crystal clear because of the firelight.Cheng Mubei took a step back and didn't accept the kneeling, and stretched out his hands to help Zhuoma, but she knelt stubbornly, biting her lower lip tightly, tears rolling down silently.

"Girl, you..." Cheng Mubei was also a little embarrassed, and looked at Shen Jiansheng helplessly. Seeing Shen Jiansheng's expressionless face, he had to turn his head to face Dolma and say, "Girl Dolma, if you have anything to say, please speak up in advance." ?"

"I, I," made Dolma choke with sobs, "My father..." She swallowed twice, but couldn't hold back, and burst into tears.

Cheng Mubei opened his mouth, and didn't know what to say, so he pulled Shen Jiansheng to sit aside, and after a while, he took out a handkerchief and handed it to her, "Tell me first."

"I, I am the only child of my father's queen mother." Only then did Zhuoma sit aside with her knees hugged, her eyes fell outside the cave, a little far away, "But there is a rule in Beimo, the kings of Beimo in the past can only be Man. My father never thought that I would inherit the throne, there are many offshoots in this generation, my father was afraid that I would be persecuted when I grow up, so he sent me to ordinary people's homes early."

"No one has come to trouble me for these years, but the father's health has been poor these years, and the movements of the side branches have become more and more obvious," Zhuoma choked up at this point, and tears rolled down, "Until, until A few days ago, someone came to tell me that my father was controlled by the Second Emperor..."

"I know that some of you have been in Beimo all the time. I thought you must not be an ordinary person, so I wanted to ask you for help. But in order to inquire about you, I used a lot of people left by my father and king, and they were killed by the second emperor's party. Noticed, last night, "I let Dolma cover her lips, her eyes were already red and swollen from crying, and she was still crying at the moment, "I killed all my adoptive parents last night, I woke up this morning..."

Shen Jiansheng who had been sitting in the corner suddenly said, "How do you know they did it?"

"Because when I woke up, I saw the note they left, telling me to teach me a lesson and tell me not to try to shake them."

Cheng Mubei frowned, he was not a good person who was willing to meddle in other people's affairs, and he didn't intend to get involved with the Beimo royal family's messy affairs.Shen Jiansheng, who was always reluctant to talk, continued to ask, "They have controlled your father, so they shouldn't care about you, why didn't they touch you?"

Dolma looked at Shen Jiansheng and said after a while, "This is related to the secrets of the royal family. If you help me, I will tell you..."

"We will return to the Central Plains soon." Cheng Mubei interrupted mercilessly before letting Dolma go.

The fire in the cave was faint, and Shen Jiansheng dimmed the light in Dolma's eyes when she saw it. This somewhat stubborn girl seemed to be defending her last pride, holding her shoulders and pursing her lips tightly.

"This is Beimo, what can the two of us do for you?"

It made Zhuoma's eyes brighten up, and she looked at Shen Jiansheng in disbelief.Cheng Mubei was also surprised when he heard Shen Jiansheng's soft voice.His memory has not recovered, he can't remember many things from the past, and his understanding of Shen Jiansheng is also narrowed.

He made Dolma look at him again when he saw it, and smiled helplessly, "He has the final say."

"The princesses of all ages are the most powerful wizards in Beimo, and my mother's queen is no exception. The status of wizards in Beimo is the most lofty. They are trying to control my mother. My mother has been pretending to cooperate with them and sent me a letter this morning. Tell me to wait for her here. I don't know what you can do, I just..." Dolma said tears were about to fall again, but she sucked her nose hard and held back, "I just hope you Can help me save my father."

Everyone knew that the only reason for the wizard to go to the holy mountain was to offer sacrifices to the deceased king of Beimo.

Cheng Mubei inexplicably provoked a mess, and his mood was very delicate. He still felt that it was only because of Zhuoma that he was cheated so that he could express his grievances because Shen Jiansheng was so kind to a strange girl. Is there any witch doctor in Mo who can specialize in treating amnesia?"
