When it was getting dark, Si Jingting walked out of the house with a tired look on his face.
Ye Qinglan and Liu Wuyan were both guarding outside. The arrival of Si Geng Yusen, the black envoy of Demon Shadow Pavilion, made them tense up. After they relaxed, they felt deeply sleepy.
The sound of Si Jingting pushing the door woke up the two people who were drowsy. They stood up hurriedly and looked at Si Jingting complicatedly.
"Miss Liu, are you feeling better?"
Liu Wuyan replied: "Thank you sir for the rescue. My brother is fine. He woke up not long ago, drank some water and fell asleep again."
Si Jingting nodded happily, "That's good."
"Qinglan."
"ah?"
Ye Qinglan was startled, "Senior Su... Si, please tell me."
"As for my identity, I didn't mean to hide it. I really can't expose it, otherwise I will die." Si Jingting said apologetically.
"I understand, Senior Si doesn't have to be like this." Ye Qinglan smiled warmly, "It doesn't actually matter whether your name is Su Xiu or Si Jingting. What matters is you as a person and the friendship between the two of us."
"I'm very pleased that you can think so." Si Jingting said, "It will be good to tell him the truth about this matter when Xin'an comes back."
"good."
Ye Qinglan blinked and asked: "Senior Si, what happened to you when you left Huangsun Mansion these days? Brother Li is very worried about you, but he doesn't know your whereabouts."
"Have you been staying in the dark next to us?"
Si Jingting replied: "For a while, I was watching you in the dark. Later, people around His Highness found me, and I was forced to leave Tongyifang."
"What happened between you and His Highness?" Ye Qing pursed his lips and asked tentatively: "I don't know whether I should ask this question. Since you are a senior of the Demon Shadow Pavilion, or... you are the driver.
Feng’s younger brother, lurking beside His Highness, is——”
Si Jingting interrupted Ye Qinglan: "Don't worry, I don't have any ill intentions. Now is not the time to talk about my relationship with His Highness."
"Next, I am leaving here. Geng Yusen will not come to harass you again, so you can rest assured. But there is already a more terrifying red envoy in the Demon Shadow Pavilion who is coming to Chang'an soon. I need to check out this visit.
Who is the person."
"When Xin'an comes back and settles the matter with the Xizhou Army, let him find Zhong Nanxun. I will tell him what you want to know."
After Si Jingting finished speaking, he took a deep look at Ye Qinglan, said only one sentence, and then drifted away.
"Practice your sword well."
…
Tongjifang.
During the battle between Si Jingting and Geng Yusen, Li Xin'an and the others had also arrived outside the hiding place of Wang Kerong, the commander of the Xizhou Army.
The three of them stopped and dismounted. In front of them was a back street, which was not wide, only three or four feet long.
But this street is where Li Xin'an has lived for five years.
The three-story inn is not far away, and the familiar blacksmith shop has stopped working and put down its shed. Farther away is the residence of Southern Xinjiang Gu Master Yousannina. Any further away is the rescue.
The medicine shop of Tiela, the magician from the Western Regions who lost his life.
"Tell me, how come there are so many characters in such a street, causing so many things." Li Xin'an looked at the empty street and said with a wry smile.
Murong Bai's eyes flashed: "This is Chang'an. It's just an ordinary street, but there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons."
"After Wang Kerong, I never want to come back here again, otherwise, His Highness will have to say that I am not doing my job well."
Li Xin'an muttered in a low voice: "I almost died here when I was a child, and I had a conflict with Tongjifang."
With that said, he stepped forward and walked forward.
He didn't lead the horse for fear of alarming Wang Kerong.
The goal of the three people was the inn where Li Xin'an stayed.
The blacksmith shop below!
A helpless smile appeared at the corner of Li Xin'an's mouth. Who would have thought that the mighty general who dominated the Western Regions back then was now just a small blacksmith in Chang'an City?
For five years, for five years, Li Xin'an didn't notice anything unusual about the blacksmith who lived downstairs from him.
If Zhang Quan hadn't stayed awake for five days and five nights to discover Wang Kerong's hiding place, Li Xin'an would have almost forgotten this ordinary incompetent person in his memory.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
An ordinary middle-aged man.
First-level Return to Yuan Realm, Xizhou Army Sword God, Wang Kerong, you hide it so deeply!
The three of them arrived at the door of the shop, opened the shed that he had put down, and Li Xin'an gently pushed the door open.
It's very tight.
Without making any loud noise, Li Xin'an's hand flashed with silver light, and a thin dagger appeared.
He inserted the dagger along the crack of the door and gently turned the door bolt.
After a long time, there was a faint "click" sound, and Li Xin'an put the dagger back and pushed the door open.
Walking in the room, the three of them didn't dare to breathe. It was so quiet that they could hear each other's heartbeats clearly.
Wang Kerong's bedroom was in the back room, and the three of them quietly moved towards it. Li Xin'an suddenly felt a little strange. People like him were not here to kill him. What were they doing in such a posture?
He laughed dumbly.
Xiao Xuangan, who was walking in the front, raised the scabbard and used the handle to lift the door curtain. Just when he was about to poke his head inside to see clearly, Murong Bai suddenly exclaimed:
"No! Brother Xiao quickly dodge!"
Upon hearing the prompt, Xiao Xuangan jumped to one side without thinking. The next moment, an iron rod flew out from the back room and was nailed to the wall.
Xiao Xuangan broke out in cold sweat - he had not even sensed such a fatal killing move before. If Murong Bai hadn't reminded him, he would have been pierced by the iron rod in his dantian and died on the spot!
While rejoicing, Xiao Xuangan cast a grateful look at Murong Bai, stood up slowly, and held the handle of the knife tightly.
I don’t know what the benefits of Liu Xiaojin’s Ghost Head Sword are in actual combat, so I’ll give it a try tonight.
Li Xin'an cleared her throat and was about to speak when she heard a burst of strong wind.
This time, without Murong Bai's reminder, all three of them felt the terrifying murderous intent permeating the room.
The earthen wall in front of them was cut off at the middle, and a pair of fire tongs, an iron drill and an unfinished long knife went straight to the door facing the three of them.
"Senior, we don't mean any harm!" Li Xin'an shouted hurriedly.
But obviously, Wang Kerong did not intend to let them go. Three weapons that were not weapons appeared in front of them in an instant.
Li Xin'an had no choice but to draw his sword and try to cut the iron drill in front of him into two parts, but the iron drill floating in the air didn't seem to be a stupid thing. It had an invisible owner who was holding it and using a very powerful technique.
Brilliant swordsmanship.
After a brief confrontation, Li Xin'an was surprised to find that he had been suppressed!
His master is the second best swordsman in the world, but even the swordsmanship taught by the swordsman cannot be the slightest advantage when it comes to this iron rod. Li Xin'an wants to use the sharpness of "White Rainbow" to cut off the iron rod.
, but I don’t know what was wrapped in the iron drill. When I cut it with my sword, there wasn’t even a single chip!
Murong Bai and Xiao Xuangan on the side also fell into this embarrassing situation.
The three of them were helpless. At this moment, Li Xin'an deeply realized something——
The difference in realm!
There is a huge chasm between the first-level Yuan Yuan Realm and them.
Even Murong Bai, who is the strongest among the younger generation in the second rank, can only be played like a monkey by Wang Kerong.
The three of them were all sober. After Wang Kerong's initial murderous intention, he no longer had it. Now he was just angry.
They didn't try their best, as that would only play into Wang Kerong's hands.
"Senior, can't you still hear my voice?" Li Xin'an shouted loudly, "We have no ill intentions, please don't embarrass yourself, senior."
"No malice?"
A deep voice came from the room: "You three sent people to monitor you day and night, and you entered my house privately, and you still said you didn't mean any harm?"
"Li Xin'an, I saved your life, is this how you repay me?"
"Juniors don't dare!" Li Xin'an clasped his fists and said respectfully, "The three of them wanted to thank the seniors in person. The reason why they made such an offensive move was because they were afraid that the seniors would not want to meet each other, so they came up with this trick. I hope that the seniors will forgive me.
.”
"well……"
The man let out a heavy sigh: "Do you know my identity?"
Li Xin'an took a deep breath, stared at the door curtain, and said cautiously: "The commander of the Xizhou Army who faked his death, Wang Kerong."
three floating in
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The iron object in the air fell to the ground, the door curtain was gently lifted, and the man's majestic figure was revealed in front of the three people.
Looking at the familiar face, Li Xin'an couldn't help but grin.
"Uncle, long time no see."
Wang Kerong stared at the three of them indifferently, "What do you want to do on this trip?"
Xiao Xuangan clasped his fists and said solemnly: "I'm here to thank you for saving my life, senior! If not for your help, senior, Li Xin'an and I would have been withered bones in the ground."
"There's no need to say thank you, pack your things, leave here, don't tell anyone about me, and never step foot here again!"
Li Xin'an said: "Uncle, we have two purposes for coming here this time. One is to thank uncle for saving lives that day. The other is to clear the names of the Xizhou Army and General Wang!"
As soon as he said this, a fierce light flashed in Wang Kerong's eyes, and the three of them suddenly felt an inexplicable oppression suppressing themselves, making them unable to breathe.
"Xizhou Army? Name corrected?"
Wang Kerong suddenly laughed maniacally: "In this world, there is no Xizhou Army for a long time, and there is no such Wang Kerong! You want to correct your name? Who can you correct?"
"The Xizhou Army is still there, and so is Wang Kerong." Li Xin'an said calmly, "As long as General Wang is willing."
"I don't want to."
To Li Xin'an's expectation, Wang Kerong refused outright.
"this……"
Looking at the stunned faces of the three people, Wang Kerong said calmly: "The Xizhou Army has 13,048 people. After it was disbanded, I have been searching for news about them over the years. Everyone is doing well."
"Some people continue to serve the court, some become generals, and some are shrouded in horse leather. Some go back to their hometowns to farm, marry and have children, some study and gain fame. Some make a fortune doing business, and some
People who have misfortune will die in a foreign land."
"Some people are honest and kind, but they are framed. Some people are stubborn and stubborn and become ruthless bullies. Some people are free and easy, and some people escape into Buddhism."
"They all have their own lives, and they all have their own lives. For them, the Xizhou Army is just a small node in a long life. The past is over. Bringing up old things again will only cause unnecessary trouble.
"
Wang Kerong shook his head slowly, his face heavy.
"Brothers are far apart. No one cares about the Xizhou Army back then. Or some people care, but there is nothing they can do."
"The people above just need to talk, and they can tear apart my brothers who have finally lived a good life and destroy their families."
"I've hurt them once, and I can't do it a second time."
Wang Kerong waved his hand and gave the order to expel the guests:
"Let's go."
The three of them looked at each other, and Li Xin'an frowned and said, "General Wang, are you really unwilling to stand up?"
"I believe that as long as you raise your arms and shout, the more than 13,000 passionate men of the Xizhou Army will not say a word!"
"What do you want me to do?" Wang Kerong looked at Li Xin'an like an idiot, "Go and summon them? I am a dead person, a person who should have been dead for many years, and now I show up to win over more than 10,000 people.
What are more than 10,000 elite border troops doing? This is rebellion!"
"I have made up my mind on this matter." Wang Kerong said, "The fate of the Xizhou Army is just a small line of words in the history books, or it may not even be included in the history books. Let future generations comment on it thousands of years later.
, we sinners just need to live well in the moment."
Li Xin'an looked at him deeply, "General Wang, have you become the coward that you are now, when you were a warrior?"
"There's no need to provoke me, I really don't care."
Wang Kerong said seriously: "This matter is over, it's over. I am the only one who will bear the blame, and it will be up to my brothers to live in peace and contentment."
"Do you think you are great?" Li Xin'an roared, "But do you know that you are just deceiving yourself by doing this! There are so many people in the Xizhou Army who know that they have been wronged, but who cares except them?
?This injustice will follow them for a lifetime, and everyone around them will look at them with strange eyes for a lifetime. They may have enough food and clothing, but when they wake up in the middle of the night, who can tell them the grievances in their hearts?"
"That's better than losing your life!" Wang Kerong gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know how I got this life? Do you think I escaped on my own? Wrong! It was Yang Guozhong! He gave it to me! He is the current prime minister.
Lord, out of great mercy, sent people to kill the guards that night and let me go!"
