Chapter 717 The fallen prince is worse than a chicken
"Do you know her?"
Chu Pingsheng clasped his five fingers, and Xu Weixiong flew several feet away and came to his side. His legs went weak and he sat slumped on the ground. He looked stupidly at the lifeless Zhao Yutai opposite him. I saw her aunt.
"Go to hell."
A little girl rushed out from behind the door and stabbed him in the back with a sword. Chu Pingsheng flicked his hand and the girl flew out, hitting the red pillar of the corridor and breaking one of his legs. He kept rolling in pain with his face full of pain. The cucumber standing behind yelled to be careful. With the little girl's cover, a bit of silver light shot towards Chu Pingsheng's throat. He tapped it lightly with his index finger and fixed it at a position less than half an inch away from the flesh. He raised his hand to grasp it and took a picture from behind the door. The three of them turned out to be the subjugated princess Jiang Ni whom she had not seen for many days.
"Hey, why are you here?"
Jiang Ni raised his head and glared, bit his teeth hard, and stared at him with hatred on his face. It was obvious that he did not intend to answer this question.
"Whatever."
Chu Pingsheng threw the subjugated princess, who was much inferior in appearance and figure compared to his own princess maid, under the ginkgo tree. No matter how she fell, she could not climb up. He walked straight into the main room and walked around the painting. The screen with the Wu family sword tomb pattern is from the back door to the landing The backyard is full of osmanthus and yellow. From the narrow path lined with green bamboos outside the backyard, you twist and turn into the east peak of Tianzun Peak. After passing the cucumber, you dare not look down. After three steps and a pause, two feet and one breath of iron rope bridge, you arrive at the West Peak Sword Pavilion. Take away the Daliang Dragon Bird enshrined on the stage.
Xu Weixiong reacted very fiercely. He taught him a lesson and kicked his right face until it was swollen into a pig's head. He was as disheartened as a dead dog and followed the two of them like wandering spirits. They left the Jiange and returned to the Qingyang Palace. .
……
Some time after Chu Pingsheng left Qingyang Palace, Li Chungang and Xu Fengnian came to the mountain. Originally, the two of them could not pass through the Taixiao Formation. They were confused by the winding courtyards and deep alleys, making it difficult to distinguish between east and west. It happened that the mountain was at the bottom of the mountain. Seeing Wu Lingsu's death, the Taoist nun in the formation didn't know what to do. She went up the mountain to seek advice from the head's wife. Li Chungang restrained the woman and forced her to act as a guide. They went around and around, and finally arrived at the main hall of Qingyang Palace. Entering the backyard through the nearby corridor, Xu Fengnian was stunned at just one glance. The long-lost princess Jiang Ni was gently pressing the body of the little bird that he thought was in danger of falling into Wu Lingsu's hands, and asked where it hurt.
"Little clay figurine?!"
Jiang Ni turned her face and looked overjoyed. She lost her little bird and ran to Xu Fengnian's side: "Why are you here?"
"Where's Lin Qing?"
"Going to the back mountain."
Li Chungang loosened his grip on the Taoist nun's arm, pushed her forward, and picked up the shimmering silver talisman of the Chu Kingdom. His eyes hidden under the blue curtain showed a strange look.
"He went to the back mountain? What was he doing there?"
Xu Fengnian saw the Taoist nun staring blankly at the female corpse at the door. From his perspective, the profile of her face seemed familiar. The scar on the right face seemed to have been seen somewhere before. He took two steps forward and looked away from the light. He saw a panic in his eyes. Blowout.
"Aunt? Aunt!"
The way he rushed over startled Jiang Ni.
"How could this happen? How could this happen! Why is aunt here?"
Every generation in the Wu Family Sword Tomb has a sword attendant who feeds and raises swords. The sword attendant next to his mother Wu Su was the middle-aged woman Zhao Yutai who had lost her breath. When she was a child, she was afraid of the scars on her face and made rude remarks. The kind-hearted Wu Su gave him a severe lesson and revealed that Zhao Yutai's facial scars were to protect himself from the devil. From then on, Xu Fengnian was no longer afraid of her and called her aunt affectionately every time they met.
Shortly after Wu Su's death, Zhao Yutai disappeared. He thought he was returning to the Wu Family Sword Tomb, but he didn't expect to meet him here after ten years. What made it difficult for him to accept was that he had just died.
"Who killed it?"
Jiang Ni: "..."
"I asked you who killed him?"
"Lin...Lin Qing."
Xu Fengnian actually thought of this answer, but he did not dare to accept it because he was the smart man who led Lin Qing to Qingcheng Mountain to kill Wu Lingsu with a borrowed knife. Chu Pingsheng was tricked by him. Could it be that he himself was not smart but was misled by his cleverness and killed Zhao Yutai?
"Why is aunt here? Why is she in Qingyang Palace? Wu Lingsu, you bastard!"
The Taoist nun who was kidnapped by him and Li Chungang said: "Is the lady in charge your aunt?"
"What did you say? Madam of the head?"
The Taoist nun faced Xu Fengnian's distorted face like a wounded beast and said: "Just now at the foot of the mountain, the Shenxiao Sword Formation we used was created by the head's wife."
Zhao Yutai came from the Wu Family Sword Tomb and had extremely high attainments in swordsmanship. It would not be difficult for the Shenxiao Sect to perfect the Shenxiao Sword Formation.
Jiang Ni recalled the scene of Zhao Yutai using a gyrfalcon to send and receive letters after he brought her and the injured Cao Changqing to Qingcheng Mountain, who were being chased by soldiers. She had seen the white gyrfalcon at Bei Ming Palace. Xu Fengnian said it was raised by Li Yishan, and she also His six years are as valuable as the phoenix. "If I guess correctly, your aunt should be in contact with the military advisor."
Have you contacted Li Yishan? Does Xu Xiao know that Zhao Yutai is in Qingcheng Mountain? Zhao Yutai is also Wu Lingsu's wife. What does it mean that the little bird has not become Wu Lingsu's cauldron to collect yin and replenish yang, as the bandit said? Wu Lingsu is his uncle, and Qingcheng Mountain is not, as the outside world says, a nail planted by the Zhao family in Liyang in Yongzhou to monitor Bei Ming. On the contrary, Wu Lingsu is a relative of the Xu family, and Qingcheng Mountain is Bei Ming's back garden. . What happened today was that he used his cleverness to lure a wolf into the house and killed his aunt and uncle.
"Why is this happening? Why is this happening!"
Xu Fengnian's eyes were wandering, his lips were trembling, and his spirit was on the verge of collapse. Lin Qing tortured the Xu family in various ways in Lingzhou City, but for him, only Jian Jiuhuang died among those close to him. Qingniao, Hongshu, and Xu Weixiong were in a bad situation, but they were still alive after all. Zhao Yutai's situation was completely different. She and Wu Lingsu's The consequences were all caused by his moves. All of this is his responsibility. When the bandits kidnapped Lin Xiao, they wanted to use Lin Qing to level Qingcheng Mountain. Now that the conspiracy succeeded, looking back, it turned out to be a huge mistake.
Tread, tread, tread.
Bah, bah, bah.
There were footsteps coming from behind the main room. Chu Pingsheng half-led and half-tugged Xu Weixiong, who was injured all over, outside the threshold. A bell fell off from under the deerskin collar, leaving a deep bloody mark on her white and tender neck. The right side of her face was swollen. Lao Gao's left eye is black and blue. If you are not an acquaintance, it will be difficult to recognize him at a glance. Cucumber followed step by step, holding in his arms a sandalwood sword box that was narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, with inscriptions engraved on the surface.
"You actually came to Qingyang Palace? Xu Fengnian, are you afraid of the reputation of the King of Qingcheng and don't want to fall out with the court and use me to destroy the whorehouse and help you save the subjugated princess?" Chu Pingsheng smiled and looked at the death of the king of Qingcheng. Crown Prince Hokusei fell into self-blame for his aunt and uncle.
"Lin...Qing!"
Xu Fengnian spread his resentment towards Chu Pingsheng. His white clothes were billowing, his beard and hair were flying, and his forehead was shining with golden light. He drew out his double swords embroidered with winter and spring thunder, and used them from Li Chungang's two-sleeved green snakes. The sword energy was like a living creature, cruising and advancing. . Chu Pingsheng abandoned the rope and opened his hand. The sandalwood sword box in Cucumber's arms was opened. A sword with silver light flowing through it, which was as clear as autumn water, was in his hand. Li Chungang saw him using the sword and said something bad. The magic talisman was in his hand. In the front, a sword immortal knelt down, and the rotating sword energy enveloped the courtyard with terrifying murderous intent. The leaves of the ginkgo tree fell like rain, and the wind lifted up the pony made of dead branches and exploded into powder.
Chu Pingsheng held the sword in his left hand and swung it freely. The tip of the sword revealed half a foot of green rainbow. It was as soft as a bone and snake-shaped on the left and right. It deflected Xu Fengnian's sword energy and the sword tip reached the throat. The right hand is like holding a sapphire, the sword is steep and creaking, and it offsets Li Chungang's spiral sword energy, accompanied by a strong wind that blows Xu Weixiong's hair, blowing the cucumber's hands to press the skirt, and the sword flying from the sky to the carved beam, The sapphire and the spiral disappeared, and Chu Pingsheng closed his palms and held the magic talisman.
The magic talisman danced in his hand, and the Great Liang Dragon Bird also danced in his hand. After dancing for a few breaths, a demonic aura that made people feel like they were falling into purgatory soared into the sky. The magic talisman stopped dancing, and neither did the Great Liang Dragon Bird. .
Duh!
Jiang Ni felt a blur in front of his eyes, and raised his right talisman. Looking back, he found that the talisman had broken three pillars, shattered the reliefs at the corners of the corridor, and slanted into the eaves.
Once in Wudang Mountain, twice in Qingyang Palace, and three times, he refused to take the opportunity to seize the talisman.
Xu Fengnian looked straight at the long sword that was almost touching the skin of his throat. He felt something familiar and asked in a hoarse voice: "What kind of sword is this?"
Chu Pingsheng pretended not to know, and Huagua also acted with him. He came forward with the sword box in his arms and presented the inscription to his eyes.
"Great Liang, Longque? It sounds familiar."
For Xu Fengnian, this sword was more than a little familiar, it was his mother's sword.
"Give it back to me!"
Chu Pingsheng went over and kicked him away, smashing a pottery urn with fallen leaves floating on the left side of the sidewalk in the courtyard. Water poured down on his head, soaking his white robe, the ginkgo leaves were close to his scalp, and a line of bright red stretched out from the corner of his mouth. Jiang Ni called his name and rushed towards him. He showed no sign of treating the enemy who had subjugated his country and slaughtered his clan. He helped Xu Fengnian up and touched his back. When he moved it to his eyes, he saw that it was all covered with blood. Tears welled up in his eyes.
"I have scrapped so many so-called famous swords, and I finally found one and gave it to you? Xu Fengnian, are you kidding me?"
Huagua looked at Xu Fengnian who had lost his aunt and lost his family heirloom, and felt extremely relieved. Xu Xiao frequently killed people and silenced them. He remembered that when Zhao Li died and the whole country was mourning, Xu Fengnian sang and danced in the Yellow Crane Tower in order to establish a dandy's son. Xu Xiao could not bear to punish him. My son chopped off the heads of more than 200 people in Lefang in one go. To put it bluntly, the more than 200 musicians and dancers who served Xu Fengnian were all killed by him. Since then, they have continued to go their own way, not realizing that ordinary human lives are precious. Now, your wisdom has been misguided, and you have killed Zhao Yutai and his wife. Do you know that you regret it? Feeling uncomfortable?
"Sir, I remember that the Great Liang Dragon Bird seemed to be the sword worn by Princess Bei Ming during her lifetime."
"Hey, this is an unexpected surprise." Chu Pingsheng lifted the rope, and the Great Liang Dragon Bird was placed in front of Xu Weixiong's neck, and he said to the setting sun: "Why did Princess Beiming's sword appear in Qingyang Palace? Could it be that the King of Qingcheng is a pervert? Guan cuckolded that damn cripple Xu Xiao, Wu Su? On the surface, she is a princess praised by countless people in Beiming, but she is actually a prostitute. She is secretly a dual practitioner with Wu Lingsu, and they are practicing Fangzhongshu together. Wu Su, Wu Lingsu, their names are quite similar. Could it be that Daliang Longque is theirs? A token of love? ”
If someone didn't know Zhao Yutai's identity, it would be normal for him to make such a logical judgment. But the words fell into Xu Fengnian's ears, but they were like a heavy hammer. His throat squirmed and a large mouthful of blood spurted out. Li Chungang quickly jumped behind Prince Bei Ming and pushed lightly with his palm. , protect the heart to prevent going crazy.
Jiang Ni stood up and said: "You are dirty, that is Xu Fengnian's aunt, the princess was a swordsman during her lifetime, and Wu Lingsu is his uncle."
"Am I dirty? Wu Lingsu is a well-known obscene demon. He likes to catch little girls going up the mountain to collect yin and replenish yang. Lin Xiao's fate in the hands of the Shenxiao sect is very serious, and his innocence is not guaranteed. This is what Xu Fengnian told me, and it was he who asked Ning Emei to I said there was nothing I could do to help and I could only rely on myself to save people. Why did I become a relative of his family?”
The more he spoke, the uglier Xu Fengnian's face became, and blood spat out as if he wanted no money. Li Chungang could only point his sword upward, a little behind his head, to block Xu Fengnian's hearing to prevent him from getting excited and aggravating his injuries.
"It turns out that the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. Your Highness, your intelligence work is not good." Chu Pingsheng threw the Daliang Dragon Bird to Cucumber, watched her carefully put it into the red sandalwood sword box, picked up the rope, and led the talented Xu Wei The bear walked toward the front yard with ginkgo leaves on the ground.
Jiang Ni plucked up the courage and said, "Keep the Daliang Longque."
