Listen to the king's order

Hua Wudao stood in front of the desk, put down the ink pen in his hand, took the small square piece of paper on the table and looked at it for a while, and then carefully rolled it up.

Five years have passed, and time has not left half a trace on Hua Wudao's face.In front of outsiders, he doesn't seem to be the same as before, he is as arrogant and unrestrained as before, unrestrained and unrestrained.Perhaps only he himself knows how he becomes quieter day by day when there is no one around.

In the past five years, Master Xuanyu has often disappeared, often disappearing for more than a month.As a result, Hua Wudao, who has always been used to being free, had no choice but to start managing the trivial matters in the sect.But he is used to idleness, and he doesn't like to meddle in these things. He often leaves things to Lan Xi and acts as a hands-off shopkeeper himself.

When Jiang Qichen was around, he would pester him to quarrel and fight.When he was away, Hua Wudao mostly shut himself in the room, pouring Tu Su pot after pot.

He always felt that if it wasn't for himself, many things would not be what they are today.The sour memory condensed into a frosty handsome face, which was the person Hua Wudao dared not mention for five years - Lu Ming.

A series of heavy footsteps came from outside the door, Hua Wudao couldn't help but frowned.The disciples of Tianyan Sect didn't say that their lightness kungfu was outstanding, but at least they could say that the geese passed silently. Where did the footsteps come from?

He rolled up the letter that he was going to send to the Wishing Pavilion to find someone, put it in his sleeve, and before the sound of footsteps reached the door, he suddenly opened the door.

Then--

He froze.

The red clothes were blown by the breeze on the top of the mountain, along with his long hair tied lazily behind his head, and the red rope tied with the long hair.

Hua Wudao was very good-looking, when Lu Ming first saw him, he felt that if Hua Wudao's face was placed on a woman, he must be a monster that would bring disaster to the country and the people.But there is no trace of femininity in his whole body, if you have to find out the slightest bit, it is probably because he has a little frivolity and charm when he raises his eyebrows and smiles lightly.

Hua Wudao's lips are plump and round, and the lips are there like a pendant, looking closely, it looks like an agate pearl.He moved his mouth, but his throat seemed to be blocked, and he couldn't make any sound.

His eyes widened slightly, and he stretched out his hand in disbelief, but he pinched Lan Xi's body.

Lan Xi crossed his arms and tried his best not to show his teeth so grinningly: "Ah—brother, why are you pinching me..."

Hua Wudao looked at Lu Ming in a daze, but asked Lan Xi, "Does it hurt?"

"..." Are you talking nonsense?Let me try pinching it!

"You..." Hua Wudao reached out to Lu Ming with trembling fingertips, as if he wanted to touch Lu Ming but dared not touch him. In recent years, he has dreamed of Lu Ming often, and even saw hallucinations several times Yes, but every time he stretched out his hand, there was only empty air in front of him.

"Eh... don't you know me?" Lu Ming teased, raising his brows slightly.

Hua Wudao turned his eyes to Jiang Qichen as if asking for help, but seeing his expression was indifferent, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and touch Lu Ming's shoulder.

I touched it... It's not an illusion, it's real...

Hua Wudao let out a sigh of relief, and then took Lu Ming into his arms with his long arms. He patted Lu Ming's back vigorously: "Lu Ming, Lu Ming, you are still alive..."

Hua Wudao thought more than once, if he hadn't kicked Lu Ming into the Buxu River as a joke back then, many of the following things would not have happened.

Or, if he hadn't been watching him back then, Lu Ming wouldn't have gone missing for five years if he didn't go down the mountain.

For five years, he could see how Jiang Qichen persevered in finding Lu Ming's whereabouts while breaking down, but he never tried to persuade Jiang Qichen once, not even mentioning the word "Lu Ming".

He sealed Lu Ming into the most secret place in his heart, like the reverse scale of a dragon, not only untouchable by others, but also untouchable by himself.

Guilt, shame, remorse, or other emotions, Hua Wudao couldn't tell.He thought he didn't have Jiang Qichen's unwavering affection, but when he said this name day and night, he felt pain in his heart.

In the third year of Lu Ming's disappearance, Hua Wudao finally realized after getting drunk that he might have a different affection for this person.

But before, he was not as persistent as Jiang Qichen, and afterward, it was already too late.So, he buried this unspeakable feeling, untouchable, untouchable, unthinkable.

Only every time he started fighting with Jiang Qichen in the name of quarreling, did he feel that his heart ached a little faster.He stubbornly believed that he was the instigator of all this, since Lu Ming was gone, he couldn't beat and scold him himself, so Jiang Qichen could replace him.

Until one day, after the countless tit-for-tat confrontations, Jiang Qichen said very lightly: "I don't blame you." Since then, all the discussions and temptations have become dull.He finally realized soberly that he didn't even deserve the chance to find an excuse to make amends.

As Hua Wudao said, his hands were not idle, and he touched Lu Ming from top to bottom through the fox fur coat. He successfully made Jiang Qichen's indifferent face darken a bit, and he went down to touch the two of them. to separate.

"You're enough," Jiang Qichen interrupted Hua Wudao coldly, "I'll give you a hug, and I'll even move my hands."

Hua Wudao was in a good mood, and his words were not so unforgiving. He looked at Lu Ming carefully: "What's going on? Didn't Lu Ming have his veins broken by you? Why are you still standing here? "

Lu Ming: "..."

I haven't seen him for five years, and it seems that Hua Wudao's verbal skills have reached the point where he doesn't need to utter dirty words to make people unhappy.

Jiang Qichen's face darkened, and he said coldly, "It's a long story, but it's important to do business first."

Being cheap doesn't mean that you won't be able to observe words and expressions, Hua Wudao immediately noticed a subtle change in the atmosphere in front of him.You don't need to think about how much pain you can make a person who has broken all the veins stand up again.What's more, the person who hurt Lu Ming was still his closest person...

Hua Wudao cursed himself as a "stupid donkey", and quickly stood up, letting the three of them into the room.

After listening to Hua Wudao's brief description of the current situation, Jiang Qichen said in a deep voice, "So now Xuanfeng has trapped people from the Four Great Sects in the Hero Terrace?"

"Well, the life talisman is now in the world. According to the blood oath contract made by the ancestors in the past - the five sects of the rivers and lakes, the top ten masters must obey the order unconditionally, otherwise they will explode and die. Except for the Tianyan sect, Xuanfeng placed them all I don’t know what to do on the Hero’s Terrace.” Hua Wudao nodded solemnly, “But then again, don’t you have the Jiang family’s request for life? How did Xuanfeng find it?”

Jiang Qichen: "..."

Jiang Qichen was choked up by Hua Wudao's "Which pot is not opened and which pot is lifted", he was speechless, he sipped his tea with a sullen expression, Lu Ming said calmly when he saw this, "I gave it to Xuanfeng."

"You?" Hua Wudao looked at Lu Ming's indifferent face in astonishment, and guessed that there must be some complicated reasons for this, so he stopped asking: "This is the end of the matter, we can't sit still and wait for death."

Jiang Qichen put down the cup in his hand, and muttered: "If I'm not wrong, Xuanfeng's next step is to go to the Heavenly Eye Sect. Your five sects are restricted by the plea talisman, which is useless."

"What do you mean useless?" Hua Wudao was stung by Jiang Qichen's words, and immediately choked back, "You can lose the plea talisman if you have a place to use it? You only came back now because you have a place to use it? Wait for you, Huang Hua The food is cold!"

"I'm telling the truth, can you guys do anything to Xuanfeng? He asks for a life talisman, don't you still have to submit obediently?"

"Fan Fan Fan Fan, you are so tall, I will let Hua Wudao say it here, I will kill Xuan Feng, the scum of the sect, even if my body explodes and dies!"

"..."

Lu Ming caressed his forehead impatiently. It has been five years, these two people have the problem of pinching if they can't say a few words, as always...

"Stop arguing," Lu Ming tapped his knuckles on the sandalwood table twice, and the two people over there immediately fell silent: "Qi Chen is right, the Tianyan sect is restricted by the plea talisman , if you want to take action, you must first cancel the blood oath contract that Sect Master Xiao set in the pleading talisman back then, but the premise is that you must get the pleading talisman from Xuanfeng, which is obviously unrealistic. So, instead of telling you to sit and wait, At the very least, don’t act rashly.”

Lu Ming slowly expressed his thoughts, clearly meant to Jiang Qichen, but Hua Wudao calmed down instantly.

"Except for Xuanfeng, the Golden Lotus Sect has two elders and four guardians. In addition, there are about 1000 Ziwei Xuanbing in total, and there are about 5000 soldiers in the Wangfu under Shenchuan Mufu. Chengtian, who was supported by Pei Tianxiao back then, The Jian soldiers have already been taken over to Xuanfeng, about 2000 of them. They are so numerous that the five sects can't count on them now, and we can only rely on ourselves."

No one here knows the true strength of the Golden Lotus Sect better than Lu Ming. He has been in the Golden Lotus Sect for five years, and he has already figured out their staff.

Jiang Qichen said: "There are almost 2000 shadows from all over the country of Chen."

"It's not enough at all." Lan Xi said softly from the side.

Jiang Qichen stood up from his chair, walked to the table without haste, spread out a piece of paper, dipped a pen and ink, and began to write: "Maybe there is someone who can help us."

After a while, two souvenirs with wet ink stains were handed to Lu Ming.He took the paper and looked at it, one was to send a message to Jing Zhi asking him to gather troops, the other...

Lu Ming's expression moved slightly, and a colorful figure appeared in his mind. He pretended to casually glance at Jiang Qichen, raised his eyebrows and said, "You have always been in touch?"

Jiang Qichen obviously didn't see the slight change in Lu Ming's expression, and said to himself, "Not much, but I can talk to him."

"Pa——" Lu Ming put the letter on the table indifferently, and Lu Ming teased with a sullen face: "Of course you can talk to him, he still has extravagant thoughts about you, It's not up to you."

"..." Jiang Qichen: "It's all happened in the Year of the Monkey, why do you still remember..."

Lu Ming turned his face away and didn't look at him: "You wish I didn't remember."

"Why are you two playing charades?" Hua Wudao looked at Lu Ming inexplicably, then at Jiang Qichen, and took the letter from the table: "Beichuan Helun Mansion? Do you still recognize the son of Helun? "

Lu Ming sneered: "It's not just that they know each other, they even want to marry him with a big sedan chair."

Hua Wudao: "..."

"Lu Ming!" Jiang Qichen tugged at Lu Ming's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Don't talk too much."

Lu Ming tugged his sleeves and turned sideways, with a look of "Okay, I won't talk anymore".

Jiang Qichen coughed twice in embarrassment, and pretended to be calm and said: "Just discuss this first, help me send the two letters, not to mention too many soldiers from the Helun Mansion, at least they can compete with the Shenchuan Mu Mansion, that's good." I have done a lot. Besides..." Jiang Qichen tore off a jade tablet from his waist, with the word "Jiang" engraved on it: "If you are short of light skills, send this jade tablet to the Valley of Medicine Kings, and invite the sword fairy Lu Ke and The strange hero Dao Fengyin came out of the mountain."

As he said, he dragged Lu Ming up from the chair: "There is not much time, so we must hurry up. We are traveling all the way, go back and clean up, see you later."

After finishing speaking, Jiang Qichen didn't wait for Hua Wudao to respond, and dragged the reluctant Lu Ming away.
