Chapter 43 Longevity
Chapter 43 Longevity
"Yu--"
Kou Zhong reined in his horse: "Old Ba?" Kou Zhong jumped off the horse, hugged Ba Fenghan, and patted his back hard, "Are you alright?"
Ba Fenghan pulled his hands away with a smile and said, "I'm back."
Kou Zhong twitched his eyebrows, and then he still grinned: "It's good to be back, it's good to be back."
"Ah."
Kou Zhong looked at Qin Zheng again and said: "Xiao Zheng, I haven't seen you for a few months, but she looks much prettier again."
Qin Zheng flew up and kicked him, Kou Zhong twisted his waist to dodge, but happened to bump into Ba Fenghan's hand, and got elbowed on the head, Ba Fenghan looked at the grinning Kou Zhong and said: "My Zheng'er has always been beautiful."
Kou Zhong should have a pained expression on his face, but he couldn't help laughing, not to mention how distorted his face was.
After Kou Zhong toured the city, he took the two of them to the mansion, and Kou Zhong took someone to sit down in the guest room: "Is the matter about the Demon Cult settled?"
The newly brewed clouds and mist bring out a thin fragrance of tea.Ba Fenghan took a sip: "Bi Xiuxin agreed, Shahan will not send troops, but she is powerless to stop the seal, or she has no intention to stop."
"Oh." Kou Zhong said, "They guessed it too. You will gain something from this trip. It's just..."
"It's just that they didn't expect that I could come back alive."
Kou Zhong kept making tea, but remained silent.
"What about Chang'an? How was this battle?"
Now that Chang'an is safely in the hands of the Li family, Ba Fenghan's question was to resolve the embarrassment.
Kou Zhong then said: "Although Yuwen and the Wang family joined forces this time, only one seal is still not enough to reach Cihang Jingzhai."
"The coalition has lost?"
Kou Zhong smiled and said: "Hehe, what kind of army is allied with? Brother Shimin only used one move to break this alliance."
"What is it?" Qin Zheng became interested, "Xu Ming or Xu Li?"
"He asked Li Yuan to marry Dong Shuni."
"Uh..." Qin Zheng glanced at Ba Fenghan, stuck out his tongue, "Abandoned son."
"Yes." Kou Zhong nodded, "But an abandoned son is considered a good son. In the battle of Chang'an, the coalition forces were defeated before the battle. Feng Hen saw that the two families were useless, so he escaped alone."
"That's why he is desperate to snatch the key from the Song Clan?" Ba Fenghan suddenly thought of something, "I heard that the Clan Lord and Feng Hen fell off the cliff together that day, but it's okay?"
"Very good." Kou Zhong waved his hand, "It's because the rumors outside are a bit scary. In fact, the two of them didn't fall off the cliff, but hung on the tree. It's just that Feng Hen jumped down again later, and Yue Zhang said that it was necessary." Will die, now it seems that he will have some life-saving strategy. But..."
"But what?"
Kou Zhong looked a little embarrassed: "But he took the key away."
"Ah!" Qin and Ba exclaimed at the same time.
"Don't worry, my father-in-law is not in a hurry, he said... Xiaozheng still has two, even if Feng Chen and the others get the others, it won't help."
Qin Zheng nodded solemnly, thinking, this is really what Song Que said.
"By the way, Lao Ba, since you have returned from the Demon Cult safely, then you...you should be fine."
Ba Fenghan said to Qin Zheng: "The road is bumpy, if you are tired, go and rest first."
Kou Zhong's original smile suddenly stopped at the corner of his mouth, and Qin Zheng said seriously: "How long do you want to hide from me?"
Ba Fenghan's face darkened, he opened his mouth, but he hesitated to speak.
"Ba Fenghan, don't you know that I've been waiting for you to tell me? One day, one month, or one year? Do you think I can pretend that I don't know anything because you keep it from me? From the Western Regions to the border towns , From Border Town to Chang'an, I always warn myself not to be impulsive, because you like me, so you will definitely tell me.
But now?You actually want to dismiss me?
Ba Fenghan, in your heart, what am I? "
With a "crash", he dropped the steaming teapot to the ground. Qin Zheng looked pale, looked at Ba Fenghan, and said in a trembling voice, "You know who I am, and you know why I came. Knowing me... Are you going to lie to me all this time? And then? And then wait until the day you die, and you will find a chance to send me away like today?!
Ba Fenghan!Don't you think you are too selfish?
Have you really thought about me! "
"Old Ba?" Kou Zhong was obviously frightened by Qin Zheng's roar, but his mind turned too fast, and he reacted instantly, "Could it be the blood gu on your body..."
"Yes! Bader is dead!" Qin Zheng yelled loudly, but tears couldn't stop falling down.
Kou Zhong got up and walked to Ba Fenghan, pressing on his shoulder: "What do you think of him?"
Kou Zhong turned around and walked to the door and said, "By the way, they have found the "Secret of Longevity"."
Qin Zheng didn't know if he heard this sentence, and wiped his eyes fiercely, but the red eye sockets became moist again in an instant.Ba Fenghan leaned over to hug him, heaved a long sigh, and wiped away his tears with his fingertips.
"I thought I didn't understand you 1000 years ago, but after a thousand years, I still don't understand anything."
Qin Zheng chirped and said, "How long?"
Ba Fenghan shook his head: "I don't know either. However, as long as I am alive, I will never let you leave again."
Qin Zheng rubbed his eyes: "I didn't force you to say that."
Ba Fenghan rubbed his temples: "Give me what I want."
Early in the morning, the peaceful courtyard was awakened by a violent knock on the door, followed by Kou Zhong and shouted loudly: "My handsome Miss Song is not around, those two in the room, please be more restrained." !"
The door opened, and Kou Zhong's knocking hand happened to be hanging in mid-air, and he saw Ba Fenghan appearing in front of him refreshed: "Which ear did you hear that we were not restrained? Do you want to find a doctor to have a look?" See?"
"Cough cough..."
Kou Zhonghan laughed twice, poked his head into the room: "Where's Xiaozheng?"
Ba Fenghan's face was frosty: "What are you looking for him for?"
Kou Zhong put his hips on his hips and said, "You won't forget my mission today, will you?!"
"Where is the "Secret of Longevity"?" Qin Zheng suddenly appeared from behind Ba Fenghan and asked.
"At Wangcheng Mountain."
Qin Zheng tugged Kou Zhong's arm: "Then let's go quickly."
Outside Chang'an City, Wangcheng Mountain.
Before the three of them reached the foot of the mountain, they could already see billowing dust and smoke on the mountain wall from a distance, as if it was going to cover the whole mountain.
"Is this going to blow up the mountain?" Qin Zheng couldn't believe it.
"Let's hurry up!" Kou Zhong slapped a whip in the air, and the horse under his seat spread its hooves, pulling a distance between the two of them in an instant.
"Exploding mountains?" Qin Zheng asked Ba Fenghan again.
"But is there a difference?" Ba Fenghan asked back.
"If the "Secret of Longevity" is in the mountains, then who is the person who bombed the mountain? Shi Feixuan? Or Feng Hen?" Qin Zheng nodded, "I'm afraid it wasn't Cihang Jingzhai or Feng Hen for such a large battle of explosives. It can be. The Li family should have dispatched a lot of people."
Ba Fenghan stopped his horse: "You mean Tiaohu Lishan?"
"I'm not sure, but at least look at Kou Zhong, didn't he just pass by?" Qin Zheng looked back in the direction of Chang'an City, and the road was quiet when he came.The city of Chang'an in the distance is vaguely discernible and stable.
"Lao Ba, do you still remember the place where we saw Feng Wuji?" Qin Zheng recalled, "Under the cliff, there is water passing by."
Ba Fenghan followed Qin Zheng's voice and looked around, there was no water source around Wangcheng Mountain, only continuous mountains, and there had never been any cliffs.
"The chieftain of the Song Dynasty said that they found a place similar to the one on the map, with cliffs and streams, because they always believed that the "Longevity Jue" must be in the mountains. I remember that piece of human skin, on which there were only three "Longevity Jue" words are framed in a boxy wireframe."
"Don't tell me!" Ba Fenghan turned his horse's head and looked straight at Chang'an City, the city walls, the inner and outer city rivers.
"Yang Su secretly built the treasury back then to raise troops. How could the Sui Dynasty be defenseless by hiding all the things in the mountains so far away? The square box may not only enclose these three words. It's... ..."
"Chang'an City!"
"Drive!" Ba Fenghan shouted, galloping his horse, heading straight for Chang'an.
The golden palace, with its vermilion tile roof, reflects the bloody ground under the palace wall.On the long palace road, there were corpses of guards and palace people everywhere, piled up and down on the ground, and two horses stopped at the same time in front of the chaotic pile.
As soon as Qin Zheng jumped off the horse, Ba Fenghan grabbed his arm: "It's too late."
Qin Zheng knew that his internal strength was too weak, so he had to close his eyes and listen to the whistling wind in his ears.
"boom!"
The blood-stained palace gate was cut off by Ba Fenghan's sword, and a gust of blood rushed to his nose.
"Hehehe! Qin Zheng, you are indeed the first to appear."
"Seal!"
Feng Hen's hand pinched Li Shimin's neck, and the palm of his hand was red. I don't know how many people he had killed. Li Shimin's brows were furrowed, and a cut was made in the armor in front of him. Take it out.
"Where are those idiots in Cihang Jingzhai? Where's Shi Feixuan? They probably all died at the foot of the mountain, hahaha!" Feng Hen laughed sharply, then stopped abruptly, and instantly turned into an angry face, roaring Said, "It's you! It's you Qin Zheng! Tell that damned Bi Xiuxin not to send troops! Isn't it!"
"is not it!"
He shouted sharply, and a force was suddenly generated in his hand, Li Shimin let out a muffled groan, and the blood beads from the corner of his mouth fell again.
"However, do you think that if they don't come, I'll have nothing to do?" Feng Hen pointed at Ba Fenghan, "Tell me, what will happen if I make Li Shimin into a puppet?"
"It's not good." Qin Zheng took a step forward, shaking the bamboo stick in his hand, "Lao Ba, you are responsible for saving people."
"Why, do you want to snatch someone from me?" The brows raised, the corners of the lips curled up with an evil charm that Qin Zheng hadn't seen for a long time, and the sounds gathered into a line, and fell into Qin Zheng's ears flutteringly.
"Qin Zheng, I haven't seen you for several months, and you're actually a little more beautiful. How can I do this?"
However, he said so in his mouth, but his hands didn't stop for a moment. He threw Li Shimin out of the hall suddenly, and his figure flashed. Who would have expected Qin Zheng to be prepared.
A red light suddenly cut off in front of the two of them, and Feng Hen immediately withdrew his palm: "That's right, it's a lot better than before."
The red shadow is like a wave, winding endlessly.It seems that layers of curtain walls have been built around it, and the indistinct red light makes it difficult to leave the seal.
"Bang!"
There was a crackling sound, those light curtains were actually shattered by Feng Hen's move, accompanied by his wild laughter.
"Qin Zheng, I really miss you more and more!"
"Oh! I'm very willing!"
That cage-like light wall was his way of concealing his eyes, and what he was waiting for was the moment when the seal broke through the wall!
Qin Zheng stared at the direction of his movement.Xueling swept through the force in an instant, and did not attack, so there was no sound at all.
Silently.
It was Feng Hen who slammed into that sharp blade by himself.
Qin Zheng pulled out Xueling suddenly, worthy of the name, the bamboo was stained with blood: "Do you think I really only have one face?"
"Die!"
At the same time, there was an instant fight outside the hall.
Feng Hen supported Qin Zheng's Xue Ling: "Qin Zheng, I'm afraid you still think that I can only break into the palace alone?"
"boom!"
The bamboo shadow was as sharp as a sword, and with a hand, it tore a hole in Feng Hen's body. Feng Hen jumped back, but saw Qin Zheng sneer back at him: "Of course the leader will not be so arrogant, but... "
"However, you underestimate Zhongyuan too!"
Step lightly, the person has jumped in front of him, the white bamboo stick that was raised high up made the sound of wind and thunder, a blow, like destroying mountains and seas, the whole Golden Palace seemed to be trembling.
"Boom!"
The gate of the palace was instantly smashed down, but the dense figures rushing in were unexpected by Feng Hen.
Armor and long halberd, bright light.
The majestic and orderly lineup spread out from the middle, and the woman who came on foot was wearing a long blue dress. Although she was stepping on the sea of blood, there was no emotion on her cold face.
"Sheng Jun, Zhu Yuyan is dead." Shi Feixuan said to Feng Hen, "She failed to defeat Song Que." She said those few words in an understatement.
"The five-element flag outside the hall is also dead."
Feng Hen was hit on the ground by Qin Zheng's move just now, and he was not in a hurry to get up at this moment, but his hand on the ground gradually clenched into a fist.
"Feng Wuji is dead, and Bi Xiuxin has regained control of the Demon Sect. If you go back now, there will be no room for you in the Western Regions."
Feng Hen's gaze towards Shi Feixuan seemed to be more and more peaceful, without any hatred, as if what this person said now had nothing to do with him.
Concubine Shixuan met his gaze indifferently: "Qin Zheng is right, after all, you still underestimate the Central Plains."
After that, everyone felt that two gusts of wind pierced through the air, and with a very soft muffled sound, the seal was already straight on the ground.In front of Shi Feixuan, Qin Zheng was hanging on one arm, with only a little end exposed of a black hidden weapon.
Ba Fenghan pulled out the hidden weapon for him: "If you go one step faster, I'm afraid that two of them will be nailed to your body."
Qin Zheng smiled silly at him.
Shi Feixuan looked at the two of them, and suddenly said, "Qin Zheng, when are you going to go back?"
Qin Zheng was stunned: "What?"
"I promised you to take you back."
Qin Zheng's whole body was shocked, and his heart was instantly cold.
Kou Zhong came to look for the two of them, that day he rushed to the foot of Wangcheng Mountain, only saw Song Que, Song Que said that Shi Feixuan had already guessed that this was Feng Hen's attack, and he only hoped that the people in the palace could resist one or two.
Kou Zhong smiled and said, "It's lucky to have you."
Then, Li Shimin said that he must report to Li Yuan and reward him for his merits.
At night in Chang'an city, row after row of lights, the people in the city have no idea what happened in the palace that is so close at hand.
"Lao Ba, the chieftain of Song Dynasty is right. The king of Qin is really good at governing the people."
Qin Zheng didn't mention that he wanted to go back, and dragged Ba Fenghan around the city of Chang'an for a long time, until it was dark, then he found a wine shop and got himself very drunk.
If he didn't mention it, Ba Fenghan naturally didn't deliberately remind him.Just waiting for the alcoholic side to be fierce, and was pestered and begged by this man all night.It was as if he wanted to give him back the lingering love of the rest of his life overnight.
The burnt oil lamp left only a plate full of dryness, and the meager morning sun shone through with a little light. The more Qin Zheng slept, the colder he got, the colder he slept.Only when he had to wake up did he realize that he was the only one left in the empty room, his body was refreshed and his clothes were neatly dressed.
"Ba Fenghan?"
"Old post?"
A caravan appeared on the desert, with a dozen camels loaded with goods. The man at the head seemed to be used to walking in the desert, and wrapped himself from head to toe in a long white coat.
The camel wobbled slowly, and the man was thinking about it with relish.
For example, "What the hell is Ba Fenghan"...
For example, "It's been so long, I don't know how to pick me up"...
For example, "I have used the "Secret of Longevity" to save you, but I still need me to be a coolie"...
"Ba Fenghan!"
As soon as the outline of the cottage appeared in his sight, Qin Zheng was already furious and yelled at the village.
I saw the gate of the village opened wide, and a man and a horse galloped out.
Before Qin Zheng finished shouting, Ba Fenghan grabbed him with his long arms and sat on his horse. In the blink of an eye, he threw the caravan behind him far away.
"Zheng'er, I don't keep idlers in my village." Ba Fenghan put his arms around him from behind and said with a smile in his ear.
Qin Zheng frowned: "Is this me an idler?! Is it? Is it? I could have gone back, but I don't..."
"I don't want to die."
When Ba Fenghan said it directly, Qin Zheng's face turned red, and the ear that Ba Fenghan touched was even redder.
Shi Feixuan said, "The Secret of Longevity" can bring Qin Zheng back, but "The Secret of Longevity" is the only way to save Ba Fenghan.
That day, Ba Fenghan left without saying goodbye, Qin Zheng guessed that this person would not leave him a second choice, but Qin Zheng was lucky and begged Li Shimin to announce to the world that he would not go back if Ba Fenghan did not show up.
Therefore, Ba Fenghan who had already left Chang'an City had no choice but to rush back again, and this time, he could never leave again.
Qin Zheng asked him: "Is that why you want me to go back?"
Ba Fenghan was silent, and said for a long time: "I don't want to die, but I want you to return to your original place, because I have trapped you for thousands of years..."
"So, since you know you owe me, then use this life, the next life, and the next life to repay me well."
The setting sun reflected on the yellow sand, drawing a long shadow, but there was only one shadow of a couple.
