When An Zheng woke up, he was in a stagger. When he opened his eyes, the pain all over his body was like a wave, and he couldn't help but moan. There was no pain, and it felt as if someone had broken all the bones with a steel bar.
""Finally awake.""
Groggy, An Zheng heard Du Shoushou's voice.
His vision blurred, but he could see a gap in front of him. Then he heard Qu Liuxi's voice, ""Don't open your eyes, your eyes are swollen.""
Old Huo smiled from the side. ""I'm just saying that this fellow's luck is rather strange. There's no reason, and he can't explain his reasoning.""
Qu Liuxi said, ""Before I came to cure, there was a very strong medicinal effect on his injuries. I only followed the medicinal energy to aid me. This is no luck, but it has the medicine to help me. It's just that it's strange that the pill is still adjusting itself. It's very subtle, and it changes according to his wounds. ""
Old Huo shook his head with a smile, ""Lucky … You don't understand, you don't understand.""
Qu Liuxi also smiled. She seemed so haggard after three days and two nights, but that smile was like the spring breeze.
""I don't understand, I don't understand. Old man, you should go to bed too. It's been a long time since I've rested properly.""
Old Huo said, ""You should go to bed. You haven't even eaten a single bite of food for three days and two nights.""
Qu Liuxi smoothed her hair down from her forehead and said softly, ""I'm fine. I'll give him some medicine for the wound change in a while. Three days, I've already used the medicine.""
An Zheng listened to these words, wanting to cry.
He opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
""Stop talking.""
""Little Liu,"" Du Shoushou said, ""you don't have a good one. Even though you blocked Zhen Zhuangbi's attack, that power's attack on your body couldn't bear it. Your bones have been broken dozens of places, and your internal organs are damaged. Now, your face is bigger than mine, and your eyes are swollen like buns. ""
An Zheng grinned and looked like it was smiling.
""You're crazy,"" he said.
Du Shoushou said, ""n.o.body dared to challenge a cultivator of the Xumi Realm in the Lifelike Realm! Old Huo said it's luck. I don't know what luck is, but maybe it's luck? In any case, aside from being lucky and walking out of miracles, Old Huo couldn't think of how you could possibly kill Zhen Zhuangbi. However, this is also quite good. You've always been lucky, and you've always been bullied. Suddenly, one day, luck ran out.
Du Shoushou laughed, ""I know it's not good to see your face like this, but I can't help it …""
Qu Liuxi, ""Go back to your carriage to sleep.""
Fatty Du shook his head repeatedly, ""Don't, don't, I'm too boring in a carriage by myself. I woke up when Xiao Qidao just went to sleep. I promise I won't laugh, not even if... ""
Old Huo was silent for a while, then said, ""An Zheng, there's something I want to discuss with you about. I know you may feel that you owe Qiu Changchen a debt. You didn't save him then … But you couldn't save him. If you acted, you would only waste their lives. You said you were going to Great Yan City of Fanggu. But I want to persuade you … it's not the right time. If you're willing to listen to me, then we'll find a safe place and you can concentrate on cultivating. ""
""Wait for three years. After three years, Xiao Qidao will be eight years old. With his talent, his cultivation at the age of eight was enough to deal with ordinary dangers. You've made some progress, and I'm a bit more at ease in Fanggu. Some people said that the Illusionary City was the most vicious place in the world, but the ferocity of the Illusionary City was apparent. In a place like Fanggu City, it was vicious in the dark. All of you are still young, and your strength is still low. If you're not careful, you'll end up in the mud, and you may not be able to recover from it. ""
An Zheng nods slightly, but cannot speak.
After killing Zhen Zhuangbi, he woke up and calmed down a lot.
In fact, he ran to kill Zhen Zhuangbi, Although it's something he had to do, but not the best. He knew that he had a few divine artifacts on him, but only one bronze bell could be used by those divine tools. If he was calm enough, he would pretend that he didn't know anything. Then, he would take everyone and leave the Illusionary City. Zhen Zhuangbi must not live with them, but it would not be better to fight and kill with him.
Even if he temporarily hid in the Heavenly Defying Seal, Zhen Zhuangbi could not find him for a while and then will let his guard down.
Impulsiveness, until now, it's a habbit of An Zheng, or it was something in his nature. Especially for the sake of his friends, he was often more impulsive. For example, he had heard that the prince of the Great Xi had encountered danger in the Cang Man Mountain. He didn't hesitate in the slightest, and didn't have the time to gather his subordinates to come over here without stopping.
If it wasn't for that, he wouldn't have had a helper in the vicinity of Canghai Mountain. His friends knew him, and his enemies knew him, and there were times when enemies and friends could not tell.
He told himself he couldn't be impulsive. That's right, before dying, Qiu Changchen had been antic.i.p.ating him. This antic.i.p.ation was not to be disproved. However, he had to be strong if he wanted to live up to it.
The four carriages meandered along the road, and Canghai Mountain was no longer visible.
By the tenth day, An Zheng could got up to activities. This was an unexplainable phenomenon to Qu Liuxi. His injuries were so heavy that he would have to lie down for at least three months according to the theory.
An Zheng didn't worry about the Bok Academy's retaliation, but when he killed Zhen Zhuangbi, he exposed too many magic tools. That was why the people from the Illusionary City would be tempted to act greedy. It was right for Old Huo to leave with his men overnight, but the ones who had led everyone safely away and avoided the first group of pursuers were not Old Huo, but Gu Qianye.
This strange girl from the Ancient Hunt Clan left the Cang Man Mountain with them and left the place where the Ancient Hunt clan lived for generations. No one knew why she was so decisive, perhaps something about An Zheng, perhaps something else.
Old Huo had a experience, but he didn't have much Jianghu experience. However, Gu Qianye had a rich ability to survive in the jungle. She led everyone to sneak into the forest and avoid the pursuit of the pursuers underwater. After that, they sent some people back to the Ancient Hunt Clan to find a few carriages. Finally, they walked around the Illusionary City and headed south. The Great Yan was northwest and the south was the territory of Zhao.
The Yan and the Zhao connected on the border, and the two countries were friendly. They were two countries that had never been in a war in sixteen kingdoms. Now, the empress dowager of the Great Yan was from the Royal Family of Zhao.
Another day pa.s.sed, and a large lake appeared in front of them. The local people call this lake the Soilwater, a radius of 100 miles. There were some fishermen on the sh.o.r.es of Soilwater Lake, all of them simple and honest. There were a few hills in the distance, not lofty and lofty, but there was no such thing as an idyllic landscape.
The four carriages stopped at the edge of the lake, and the sun shone down on the surface of the lake. The beauty suffocated people. The surface of the lake was as calm as a mirror. From afar, the beauty that came into view and entered into the mind made one feel that it would never leave this place.
Du Shoushou and An Zheng got out of the wagon and sat down on the gra.s.sy slope by the lake to rest.
""Has Shan Ye still been not awake?""
An Zheng asked.
Du Shoushou said, ""Ever since you killed Zhen Zhuangbi, Shan Ye fainted. It had been half a month now, and there wasn't even a trace of awakening. Liuxi saw that he was fine. He must have used up his strength all of a sudden, so he needed to recover. But it had been a long time since he had recovered, and he had been sleeping so much. Don't you think it's strange that you killed Zhen Zhuangbi and Shan Ye used his strength to help you, then get tired? ""
An Zheng couldn't explain, but he knew very well that if it wasn't Shan Ye's divine strike, he would have died in Zhen Zhuangbi's hands.
In fact, it wasn't just Shan Ye, but also his bloodline bead bracelet.
Perhaps because the injury was too heavy, the bracelet could not continue to absorb the blood energy from the An Zheng's body. Instead, it also provided nouris.h.i.+ng medicinal gas for An Zheng, and thus fell into a state of resting. Especially the third bead, the words of ""Fish in the North"" were especially pale, as if they were going to disappear at any moment.
As for the Demon Binding Rag, it had always been with Shan Ye, and there was no movement.
Before An Zheng lost consciousness, he saw the Demon Binding Rag kill. If it wasn't for the fact that the Binding Demon Rag had suddenly erupted, the gathered disciples of the academy would have easily eliminated An Zheng and took all the magical artifacts from the battle.
""It's like a dream.""
Du Shoushou lay back down on the gra.s.s slope, looking at the unblinking sunset. ""I've thought about leaving the Illusionary City and Cang Man Mountain many times. It just so quick. Remembering the days in my life, I felt a bit of nostalgia and regret. However, I know that I won't go back if I haven't got the power to change Illusionary City. ""
""That's a place filled with evil. When I have strength, I will definitely go back and make Illusionary City a better place.""
He turned his head to look at An Zheng. ""Speaking of which, the place is beautiful. If people do good things, it's a good place to hide.""
An Zheng said, ""Then we'll wait for you to become famous and go back to work as the mayor.""
Du Shoushou nodded, ""Okay, that's settled.""
When An Zheng saw the lake, Gu Qianye stood there with her arms around shoulders as she looked at the surface of the lake. Qu Liuxi walked over with a piece of clothing and put it on for her. After living together with Gu Qianye for half a month, this kind girl no longer had any repulsion. Perhaps there was a Buddha in the middle of Qu Liuxi's heart. It was a kind of good will that never change.
Gu Qianye smiled at her, then took her arm, and the two of them stood by the lake, looking at the scenery, but they were more beautiful than the lake.
""Why is that girl following us?""
Du Shoushou didn't understand.
An Zheng shook his head, ""Perhaps it was because of that fish scale.""
Du Shoushou seriously said, ""But when she looks at you, she's always a lecherous.""
An Zheng, ""Get lost...""
""Right."" Du Shoushou suddenly asked, ""Where did Zhong Jiuge go? You told him to help find something, it's already been a long time. If he comes back and can't find us, he'll go mad. ""
""He won't go mad. He knows better than anyone how to live in this world. Although the people of Qian Clan do things without dignity, they have practical skills. ""
""Where's he gone?"" Du Shoushou asked.
An Zheng replied, ""Great Xi.""
""Help you find what?""
There was a moment's silence, then An Zheng replied, ""Hope.""
Du didn't understand, he couldn't understand.
""Where are we going?"" He asked the last question.
""There is a border city called Duxu City in Zhao. It's small and spa.r.s.ely populated, but there are the most elite soldiers in Zhao. No matter how fierce the people of the illusionary City were, they didn't dare cause trouble in Duxu city. Let's go to Duxu City for three years before we go to Fanggu to help Xiao Qidao find his mother. ""
After An Zheng answered, he muttered to himself, ""I don't know what happened to Aunt Ye.""
""She should be fine. It looks like Mu Changyan is a very important person. He loves Aunt Ye, so he wouldn't let her suffer.""
At this moment, within Fanggu City, the capital of Great Yan, which was thousands of miles away, Aunt Ye was wrapped in chains, and pushed into the dungeon.
