The emperor read the story book in the memorial

"This, what's going on..."

In the main account, Xue Ni felt Li Jianyu's pulse and was startled.

Zhao Linxu stood aside expressionless, looking at Li Jianyu like a sculpture, without moving.Big Wolf stood by the bed, staring at Li Jianyu blankly.

Xue Ni probed again in disbelief.

how come……

Xue Ni gritted her teeth, lowered her head and couldn't bear to talk to Zhao Linxu.

The door curtain was lifted, and Chongxi, who came from Feng Guhua's tent, said hurriedly, "What's wrong?!"

Feng Gu Qianli and Wan Yunliu also followed behind him, while Zhao Zhanqi and Xu Zheng have now sealed off the barracks and are searching Feng Guhua comprehensively.

That's right, Feng Guhua is missing.Xu Zheng said that he was talking to Feng Guhua, but lost consciousness for some reason, and when he woke up again, Feng Guhua was gone.

This is very evil. After all, Zhao Zhanqi was watching from the outside, layers of guards surrounded the tent, and even a fly couldn't be put in. How did the seal of Gu Hua come out?

But now something even more sinister happened.

Xue Ni looked at Chongxi, and said in a low voice: "The city lord has lost his... breath."

To put it bluntly, he is dead.

Chong Xi widened his eyes.

……what?

Xue Ni was sure, but still summoned the doctor, intending to investigate again.

Chongxi stood beside Zhao Linxu and pressed his shoulder, but he couldn't say anything.

Zhao Linxu stared at the motionless person lying on the bed with his eyes closed tightly, and then stepped forward to hug him.

Little carp, don't be afraid...

Zhao Linxu gently tightened his embrace.

The past few days have been uneven. What happened yesterday made Zhao Linxu stay close to Li Jianyu, but something happened to Li Jianyu right in front of him.

"Zhao Linxu, you bastard!"

Wan Yunliu's eyes were red, he stepped forward and pulled Zhao Linxu out, pulled his collar and shouted: "Seeing that Yu is with you every day, why do accidents happen one after another!"

"Do you fucking care about him? Zhao Linxu, you bastard!"

"You said you would take good care of him!"

Wan Yunliu's voice changed, and his eyes became more and more red.

Zhao Linxu didn't let go of his hands holding Li Jianyu, but turned his head slightly, looking straight at Wan Yunliu with those two eyes, like an endless abyss, sending a chill down Wan Yunliu's spine.

Wan Yunliu's next curse stuck in his throat, it was clear that he was grabbing Zhao Linxu's collar, but he was overwhelmed by Zhao Linxu's aura.

This, this bastard!

Wan Yunliu was trembling with anger, only hated that he had nowhere to vent.

"Okay, Master Wan, calm down first, it won't help if you say these things now."

Chongxi stepped forward and pulled Wan Yunliu away, pressed Zhao Linxu's shoulder and asked, "Tell me what happened? Was there a surprise attack?"

Zhao Linxu hugged Li Jianyu without moving, so Xue Ni interjected: "I was there when the incident happened, and I sent the army report for brother Qi. At that time, the city lord was talking to us, but suddenly he convulsed and passed out. , and so on.”

So caught off guard, the two watched Li Jianyu lose his breath and consciousness in front of them, without any warning.

The doctor came, but before he got close to Li Jianyu, he met Zhao Linxu's gaze, and his footsteps stopped suddenly.

"Your majesty... I have been ordered to come here, to feel the pulse of the city lord..."

"Don't touch him."

Zhao Linxu finally opened his mouth and said these three words word by word.

The doctor then knelt down.

There was silence in the tent.

Wan Yunliu glanced at Zhao Linxu, then at Li Jianyu, his chest heaved violently.

Zhao Linxu was still holding Li Jianyu, the body in his arms was still warm, and now it was even warmer being held by him.

"Your majesty, can you let go of the city lord first?" Chong Xi patted Zhao Linxu's back lightly and said, "Calm down first, huh?"

Zhao Linxu let go, and laid Li Jianyu on the bed very gently, then turned and walked towards the curtain of the tent.

Chongxi grabbed Zhao Linxu's arm and said, "Where are you going?"

"Look for Feng Guhua and the wizard." Zhao Linxu's face was terribly calm, and there seemed to be some violent storm slowly rising in his eyes, but he was firmly suppressed.

"The two generals are already looking for it, Your Majesty..."

Feng Gu Qianli stepped forward and pushed Chongxi away from Zhao Linxu's hand, saying in a low voice, "Let him go."

Zhao Linxu strode out of the tent, got into Yuefeng and was about to leave, but saw Zhao Zhanqi riding a horse from a distance.

"Wait! We've found someone!"

Zhao Linxu's pupils shrank slightly.

Zhao Zhanqi stopped the horse in front of Zhao Linxu, motioned Zhao Linxu to enter the main tent and said.

Afterwards, Zhao Zhanqi took out a letter and said to everyone: "Xu Zheng caught up with Feng Juhua not far from the barracks. Feng Juhua gave him this letter and then escaped. It wasn't Feng Guhua at all. It was the wizard who attacked the camp last night! He escaped with secret techniques."

Zhao Linxu took the letter and looked at it, his eyes suddenly lit up with hope, but then slowly turned into anger.

The letter said that Li Jianyu's soul came from the Secret Art Pavilion, so the wizard Qing Luo could manipulate it at will.Now, Li Jianyu's soul has been pulled out of his body and is in Qing Luo's hands.

Feng Guheng will send a horse to take Li Jianyu's body. If he doesn't give it, his soul will have nowhere to rest.

Xue Ni frowned and said, "Really?"

Although he was an apprentice of the Secret Art Pavilion, he escaped early in the morning, and he didn't know much about the Secret Art Pavilion, so he just thought it was mysterious.

"It is not ruled out that the wizard lied, but now we have no choice." Zhao Zhanqi frowned slightly.

If Li Jianyu's body is not sent to the Daxi military camp, both sides will die.

It's better to take a gamble with a dead horse and a living horse.

"What the wizard said may be true."

With the overall situation in mind, Chongxi no longer hides anything, took a deep breath and glanced at the people in the tent and said, "Can I talk to the emperor alone?"

Several people naturally had no objection, Wan Yunliu originally wanted to stay, but was also pulled away by Feng Guqianli.

After the unconscious Li Jianyu, Zhao Linxu and Chongxi were left in the tent, Chongxi pulled a chair and sat beside Zhao Linxu and said, "I protected Linxue in that fire, so I thought I would die, but When I woke up, I found myself in the Secret Art Pavilion."

"At that time, Qingluo went to Da Gong to attend the birthday banquet of his father, and when he saw me, he took me back. He wanted to save me from dying, but this was definitely not out of kindness, but to transform me into a demon. He said that my physique is the most suitable one he has ever seen, and my soul is unstable, almost dying, so it is easy to manipulate."

Zhao Linxu didn't speak, but Chongxi knew he was listening, so he continued: "The so-called convenient manipulation means that it is easy to be taken away. Qingluo's plan is to use an ancient taboo technique to summon demons from other worlds, and then use them My body. But Qing Luo tried for many years without success, and finally activated the formation, but what was summoned was just an ordinary mortal soul."

Zhao Linxu turned his head to pay attention to Xi.

Could it be that it was his little carp?

"That strand of soul was very kind. It didn't take away me, a conscious person, but ran away. After all, Qing Luo used this taboo technique for the first time. The ancient book said it was too vague, so he failed to keep that strand of soul. Qing Luo said that either the soul has dissipated, or after it dissipated, it was lucky to meet a person who had just died, and entered his body to be reborn."

Chongxi took a deep breath and said, "I don't know what happened next. Thousands of miles later, I will lead people to wash the Secret Technique Pavilion with blood, and Qing Luo will also disappear."

Thinking of the past, although the methods Qing Luo used on him still made him terrified, and his whole body still ached when he thought of it, but it was all insignificant because of the seal.He and Qianli have known each other since they were young, and they made up their minds as early as when he was still Prince Dagong. It's just that he was a noble prince at that time, not a monster in the Secret Art Pavilion, but Qianli never disliked him.

"Brother, you should go out first." Zhao Linxu whispered, "Tell them not to come in."

"Okay." Chongxi rubbed the top of Zhao Linxu's hair, and then left.

There was silence all around.

First Li Jianyu lost his breath, then what the wizard told him, and then Chongxi revealed the truth.

Zhao Linxu still hugged Li Jianyu, resting his head on Li Jianyu's shoulder, and closed his eyes slightly.

The night was getting darker.

XXXXXX

The morning light is faint, and the sky is slowly revealing a white belly.

Wan Yunliu kept guarding outside the tent with his sword in his arms.

It was not peaceful outside the barracks. It was said that Rong Qi came to pick up Li Jianyu with a team of troops and an empty carriage, but he swore frankly to Da Gong's decision that he would definitely agree.

With a sound of "crash", the door curtain was pulled up, Wan Yunliu turned his head, and saw Zhao Linxu hugging Li Jianyu and walking out slowly.

"Where are you going to take Jianyu?"

Zhao Linxu didn't pay attention to Wan Yunliu at all, and just walked forward expressionlessly.

Li Jianyu's body had already cooled down, and it was okay in the warm tent, but now it was even colder when he left the tent and was blown by the cold wind.

"You want to send Jianyu to the Daxi military camp? That's the enemy's military camp!" Wan Yunliu trembled all over.

How could Zhao Linxu send Li Jianyu there...

How could this be!

"Zhao Linxu!" Wan Yunliu drew the long sword from his waist.

Zhao Linxu didn't even look at the sharp weapon.

Afterwards, Zhao Zhanqi and Feng Gu stopped Wan Yunliu thousands of miles away, and Wan Yunliu's eyes widened, trembling as he watched Zhao Linxu leave the barracks with Li Jianyu in his arms, and handed Li Jianyu to Rong Qi.

Wan Yunliu's body softened, and he knelt down on the ground, desperately trying to suppress his emotions.

He hated Zhao Linxu for being incompetent, but he hated himself more.
