lnmao.org, the fastest update of the latest chapters of Fengzi Monogatari!

The length of this ladder is quite long. Xu Liewu is in front and Nier is behind. The two of them did not show any light work. They walked for a short while. When Xu Liewu opened the secret door, the two walked out of this way. The exit of the upward tunnel turned out to be a hill.

The cool breeze on the hill is very refreshing, but the surrounding woods are dense, and you can’t see the scene outside the woods. Nier can’t tell where she is at a moment, but based on the distance, she should It's a mountain range outside Zhongdu City.

Not far from the exit of the tunnel, there is a pavilion made of bamboo branches and wrapped with green vines. It looks green and tender, and feels elegant and elegant. A plaque is hung above, and it is written "Taisi Pavilion" in block letters. With three characters, Xu Liewu led Nier in. The small table in the pavilion was ready for tea, and it was obvious that people came here every day to clean and clean.

"Here is..."

"Retreat to the pavilion. Retreat and think, quietly realize oneself, in simple terms, it is a place to kneel and reflect, but that has nothing to do with what we are going to talk about today." Xu Liewu smiled: "This place is Bailu The cave industry was originally used for other purposes, but it gradually evolved into a place for secret meetings. The reason is why, I believe you can feel it too."

Nier nodded. When Dacong came to this mountain, her Tianxin consciousness repeatedly warned her of the same message. This place is enveloped by hundreds of different types of barriers, and layers of invisible energy nets that affect each other cover this side. Impenetrable by wind and rain, it is by no means lower than the magical barrier of the ivory white tower underground palace. Under the cover of this super-multiple enchantment, no matter what kind of magic or power detection is used, it cannot be penetrated at a long distance to spy on the enchantment. It's no wonder that images and sounds will become a place for people to discuss secrets.

"What we are going to talk about...hehe, let's talk about your reward first!"

"What reward?"

"You helped me slip out of the palace and helped me so much. I thank you very much!" Xu Liewu smiled and said, "I can't pay you too much for your merits and rewards. Let's talk about it, you What do you want? I will try my best to satisfy you."

"Oh, I was talking about the ransom with the kidnapper..."

Nier squinted at Xu Liewu, seeing his smile and calm look, as if he was controlling everything in the palm of his hand, and she felt angry when she saw this, and immediately snorted: "Really, everything can be done. Here? Don’t think too much of yourself. I want you to give me a silver mountain. You can also give it away?"

"Gold and silver are all external objects, which can win a beautiful woman. What is a silver mountain?"

"So refreshing? How about adding another golden mountain?"

"No problem, don't look down on the rich!"

"It's so arrogant, if the guy who is asking for money hears it, he will jump up with excitement... Well, actually I don’t care about Jinshan Yinshan. What do I want so much money for? It’s not as good as land... Yes, you Give us the land, so can you agree?"

"Land is also an external thing. You don’t bring it when you are born or don’t take it when you die. It’s easier to mow than to cut a cake. Let’s say, which piece of land do you want?"

"You can cut the land? It's really a foolish ruler...Well, I didn't mean much when I took the land. It's better to...you give me the head of your brother, the iron-faced ladyboy."

"Senior brother is still an external object, one more is not more, one less is a lot, you can do it if you like it, let's say, when do you want it?"

Nier asked a series of questions, asking very urgently, just mentioning Zhou Gongjin casually. Seeing Xu Liewu's quick promise, thinking that he was habitually quick to talk, he would be shocked immediately when he agreed to himself. I feel regretful, but after he did not change his face, he didn't seem to be surprised at all. Fortunately, he looked at himself for a while, blinked his eyes with a smile, and shook his teacup. Obviously he was completely sane and didn't intend to take it back The promise just now.

"You...do you really know what you are talking about? Did you make a mistake..."

"I know very well, do you want me to say it again?"

Now, Nier was taken aback. How much weight Zhou Gongjin has in today's El Tienor can be seen by her outsider, not to mention Xu Liewu, who is closely related. He is El. Tienuo's strongest and final force, if Zhou Gongjin and his legion were defeated, Xu Liewu would not be able to survive in a situation surrounded by a group of powerful forces alone.

For the sake of his own position, Xu Liewu was too eager to protect Zhou Gongjin. How can there be any reason to smash the wall and kill the hero at this time? What's more, Zhou Gongjin is not only invincible in martial arts, but also sits on the two great weapons of Jin'ao Island and Tongtian Cannon. If Xu Liewu cooperates wholeheartedly with him and the two parties work together, he can almost be said to be invincible in the world, and Nier dare not say anything. The Reins coalition can outperform such a pair of partners.

Could it be that Zhou Gongjin’s strength was too strong, and he was guilty of this age-old problem of the master of high gong, making Xu Liewu jealous of his strength, so he wanted to start to be strong? However, Xu Liewu does not look like that kind of cowardly monarch with a weak heart and lack of self-confidence, and if Yan Ning tells her that the past is correct, it is impossible for Zhou Gongjin to betray Eltinus, nor to betray the Cao family. Royal, because...

"Are you really not mistaken? Zhou Gongjin...he is your Eltinus..."

"Sir? You made this request. Why did you retreat?"

Xu Liewu took a sip of tea and saw that Nier still had a suspicious expression on her face. She laughed dumbfounded and said, "It seems that if I don't explain the reason clearly, you must not believe me. Um... Actually. Although there are many reasons, there is still only one in the final analysis. I am only with the winner! This principle has never changed. It was the same in the past, and it is the same now."

Nier knows that Xu Liewu has the nickname "The Bastard of the Goddess of Victory". Every time he encounters a major war, this man will choose the side very wisely, and he never misses the position where he stands. Every time he bets As a result, they all returned with great victories, bringing their own power to a higher level.

Khublai and Lu You, both of whom were given up by Xu Liewu. Abandoning Kublai, withdrawing from the family's rebellion, let Xu Liewu become the master of the Medici family; abandoning Lu You and choosing to embrace Shi Chong and Zhou Gongjin, this made Xu Liewu rise to the lord of Eltinus in one fell swoop, luck and victory It seems that Yong accompanies Xu Liewu, his choice is always correct and chilling, is it also for this reason that he chooses to abandon the iron-faced ladyboy?

Nier suddenly realized that Xu Liewu brought herself to this place, in fact, to talk about this important event. If he had been prepared to kick Zhou Gongjin away, he would definitely be afraid of being bitten by Zhou Gongjin, so he was so cautious. In other words, Xu Liewu, who had already prepared, would have no doubt about the seriousness of this matter.

"Why do you want to do this? I want to hear your explanation."

"The second brother is very strong, and it is also a great help to us. He can be called the strongest Valkyrie of Eltinus. But unfortunately, this Valkyrie has become an out-of-control Valkyrie. In his hands, he became the target of the public, and all the forces wanted his life, and even if they put me on the boiling water and become the public enemy of the whole wind continent, the pressure is too great, it is better to cut off the relationship as soon as possible. "

"Are you willing to cut off? The Iron Mask and the Sky Cannon are the helpers that many people don't want, you are just like this..."

"Since ancient times, people who have been superstitious about their own strength, wanting to fight against the world with a few people, will not end well. Five seniors have tried the world with swords in the past, and they are all masters alone. How awe-inspiring. Where is it now? Although the Tongtian Cannon is powerful, it is only a cold machine after all. If you want to use this machine to rule the entire continent, you will definitely be besieged by all the forces on the Continent of Wind. What are the consequences? At least I am not. Optimistic."

Xu Liegu talked freely, analyzed the situation, and the precise prediction of many remarks made Ni'er amazed in her heart. She felt that if she stood in his position and based on these thoughts, she would definitely make the same decision. Leave these alone. Whether the idea is true or not, Xu Liewu is indeed an outstanding lobbyist, and every sentence is so persuasive.

"...What's more, with the secret information I got myself, Reins has obtained the blueprint of the Sky Cannon after the Battle of Shangri-La. In order to resist the threat of the second brother, I believe I have begun to manufacture two Sky Cannons. The scene of the guns blasting against each other will be staged sooner or later, and the second brother may not take any advantage!"

Nier had no contact with Reins, let alone the actions of the Taiyan Institute, but after hearing Xu Lie’s unspoken words, I believed in my heart 70%, if I also had a cannon, then there would be Sufficient capital to fight against the iron-faced ladyboy, Xu Liewu made a judgment because of this and decided to abandon the iron-faced ladyboy, it is not difficult to understand...

"What I want is not to contend for world hegemony, nor plan to conquer the Continent of All Winds. Peaceful coexistence is my ideal blueprint. Reins should not have much aggressiveness towards Eltinus. No, it doesn’t matter whether there is aggression or not. Anyway, I am not attached to the throne of Eltinus. Take it if you want! At the cost of this, I hope that Miss Nier can become a bridge of peace and we work together to eliminate After the obstacle of peace, let me shake hands with His Majesty Lancelow."

Xu Liewu said very lightly. The smile between her eyebrows was not like discussing national affairs. Nier couldn’t help but have an idea. Perhaps Xu Liewu also used this expression when she talked and laughed and decided to participate in the act of killing the teacher. Lu You was sent to death.

"I...I don't believe you at all. Although your words make sense, I always think there are some traps in your words."

"Really? It's a shame, because I work hard to hide my vicious heart!"

"But, as a member of Reins, I will convey your words to my brother and let him judge."

In the end, Nier could only make this decision. Regardless of whether Xu Liewu's desire for cooperation was true or false, she had no right to shelve it, making Reins missed this opportunity. The cooperation between Xu Liewu and Zhou Gongjin can almost be said to be an invincible joint in the world, but if the other way round, Xu Liewu stabs Zhou Gongjin behind Zhou Gongjin, it is also a very advantageous tactic, which can end the war sooner.

For Xu Liewu, he also hurt his brain for a long time, because this proposal is too unthinkable, and his relationship with the Reins people is not very friendly. If there is no suitable matchmaker, If the two sides are susceptible to each other, more time will be wasted. And the only Reince who had some contact with him was the beautiful girl with long legs. She was worried about how to get in touch with her, and she fell from the sky by coincidence, saving her own troubles.

"I will come to see you tomorrow. Anyway, you don’t like the palace. Just stay here. When you meet someone, you can tell me my name. The entire Zhongdu city is now the safest place. Stay here. Here, no one can hurt you..."

Xu Liewu finished speaking and stood up gracefully to say goodbye. Although Nier didn't know how he would explain when he went back, she guessed that he was brave and witty. Let's escape from the murderous kidnappers!

"Wait a minute, I want to ask you something."

According to the doubts in her heart, Nier couldn't help but ask, wondering if Xu Liewu decided to abandon Zhou Gongjin, other than the reasons just now, is there any other reason. Even if a barrel of fire under the scorching sun would have exploded, there should be a flame or a fuse!

"Well, if you have to say it reluctantly..."

Xu Liewu's brisk voice suddenly turned heavy. Although it was not very obvious, Nier did feel the weight. She seemed to sigh and feel sorry, and Xu Liewu stopped.

"...probably because of the loss of control of the Shangri-La battle! What the second brother did in this battle was a big surprise. The decision he took, people can’t believe it was in his hands, if He can order the Tongtian Cannon to be aimed at Shangri-La, so who can guarantee that he will not change the gun to Zhongdu one day?"

"So even you are scared?"

"You go to the street and ask someone casually. When they say that my second brother is a national hero and praised him for his invincibility on the battlefield and showcasing his power in Shangri-La, look at their eyes and look at Can you find fear in it...it shouldn’t be difficult, because I can see it every day."

Xu Liewu said his sigh softly, then left and returned to the secret path. Nier kept looking at his back until his figure disappeared, and the heavy feeling in her heart was still very uncomfortable. He and Zhou Gongjin are indeed enemies, and they hate him for pointing the gun at the civilians in Shangri-La. However, after seeing him invincible on the battlefield, those who should support him plan to defeat him and both are military commanders. Nier, there is a sad feeling of death.

But there is another thing that makes Ni'er more puzzled. Even after the conversation and Q&A just now, she still can't be sure that it is Xu Liewu's sincere sigh, or just acting. Although he is not old, this elegant noble son is undoubtedly a fox!

When Nier was still thinking, there was a sound from behind, it sounded like some kind of mechanism and wheel rotation, pressed against the grass behind, rustling, and among these abnormal noises, a very natural and soothing sound But the feminine female voice came into Nier's ears with some surprise.

"Oh, it's really rare...it's rare to have visitors here!"

Nier turned her head back when she turned around, she still had a thought in her mind, that is, she forgot to ask Xu Liewu where she was; however, she turned around to see clearly behind her. When she was human, she stopped her voice in astonishment.

The female surname in front of me is very beautiful, with classically beautiful eyebrows, blinking like an autumn swallow; the silver-gray dress is simple and simple, just like the hair-tied Jingchai on her head Although her dressing is natural, she can't conceal the elegance of a family background, making it obvious at a glance that she must have been the daughter of a nobleman.

It's hard to describe. Although the plain and natural feeling is very similar to Yuxian Fenghua, it is decisively different. The jade sign is natural and peaceful, and the temperament seems to be innate, but the simple dress of this woman seems to be washed away from the lead after suffering, and is willing to return to the ordinary.

Just staring into her eyes, I vaguely felt that I saw a deep sadness, as if torn the whole heart in two halves with intense pain, even as the years passed, the wound was frozen to stop the bleeding, But she felt pain from time to time. Even this kind of looking at each other made Ni'er infected, and she had a sad urge to cry...

"Miss, this is not where ordinary people can come in. I believe you are not an ordinary lost tourist. Would you like to tell me what are you doing here?"

The voice is soft, soothing, and not hostile. Nier wakes up from a dream and stares at the object in front of her again. Only then is she surprised that she is sitting on a wheelchair-like wooden cart, which is obviously bad at walking. , The entire operation depends on this wooden cart.

"You...your feet..."

"I can't stand up for many years, but as long as I have my heart, I can still do a lot of activities. I just learned how to make plum soup, and there happened to be a visitor. If you don't dislike it, I will stay and have a meal tonight!"

Ni'er noticed that there was a bamboo basket hanging beside the wooden cart of the silver dress lady, and not far from her, there were several plum trees blooming brightly. She said that she had just learned how to make plum soup. It must be here to pick plum petals, wash your hands and make soup.

When I thought of this, Ni'er immediately moved, ran to the plum blossom trees, patted the trunk with a light palm, shaking off the empty plum petals like snow, shot like the wind, and quickly took down the plum blossoms. The petals were squeezed in the fingers one by one, and after a few rounds in the air, they turned over and landed, holding a handful of snow-white plum petals, but half of them did not fall to the ground.

Nier arrived in front of the lady in silver clothes and sprinkled the petals in her bamboo basket, just in time to greet her with a small smile.

"Miss, your heart is very good and considerate!"

Not to praise her martial arts, but to praise her thoughtfulness. Nier felt a little surprised, but she liked the feeling of being praised. She was about to say thank you. The lady in Yin Chang has turned the handle of the wooden cart and turned around. At the front of the car, let Nier follow her forward.

Walking out of this woods, Nier found herself on the side of a mountain, quite high. From this angle, you can clearly see the Zhongdu City, and there are many houses and buildings at the foot of the mountain, layered on top of each other, like It is built along the mountain like a staircase, and looks very magnificent, but the design of the archway and the eaves is extremely detailed. From a distance, the pavilions, pavilions, rockery and water are all complete, the red tiles and white walls are all styled, and there are many hollowed out mountain walls The resulting cave dwellings are densely packed with people who come and go frequently like ants.

"It's so beautiful, what's underneath?"

"Oh, you must have come from a different place! How come you don't even recognize such an obvious landmark? Anyone who arrives at Zhongdu should recognize it. This is the famous Bailudong main courtyard!"

"Ah! This is Bailu Cave?"

After being said so, Nier remembered that in order to show respect for Bailu Cave when El Tienno was founded, he built the capital near Bailu Cave, and deliberately located one level lower than Bailu Cave. Shows absolute obedience to Lu You, although that intention became a big irony after Lu You died, but it still can't change the distance between the main courtyard of Bailu Cave and Zhongdu.

"Below is Bailu Cave? So, this is..."

"This is the back mountain of Bailu Cave, but starting with Bailu Cave, here is a forbidden area, disciples are forbidden to enter, and offenders are severely punished. If you can enter here, someone must have brought you in! "

"Uh...It's the guy Xu Liewu, who secretly dug a tunnel from Zhongdu City to the place just now. He said that as long as he reports his name, the people here will know."

When Nier talked about authentic things, the expression of the lady in silver dress stopped immediately, as if she was shocked by the incident, but immediately smiled clearly, as if she had figured out something, and smiled softly. stand up.

"Yes...There is this method too! As he said, as long as you are willing to use your brain, there are many solutions in the world..."

At the end of the story, the voice was inaudible. Nier couldn't hear her clearly, and she didn't dare to ask more. Fortunately, the lady in Yinshang came back to her senses and took Nier's hand to the mountain.

"Since you were brought by Xu Liewu, you are the guest here. If you don't dislike it, please follow me!"

Yin Chang Liren’s wooden car is cleverly designed. Although some mountain roads are quite steep, she flips the axles gently, and this seemingly heavy wooden car rides like a barbarian, gently and skillfully walking on the mountain roads like flying. It didn't take long to reach a fork in the road.

"Go to the left. That road leads directly to Qianxue Valley. It was where Grandmaster Lu You retreat was in the past. Now it is still a restricted area and idlers stop."

"Lao Lu's Tortoise Cave? That place is very famous! I wanted to take a look a long time ago. I had a friend... well, it's my eldest brother's friend. He is with Lao Lu. I tried three tricks in that turtle cave, and finally lost there, I..."

"Really...can't you go? Lao Lu is dead, should we be able to open up over there?"

"I don't want to stop you, just want to tell you that the place where the sword fairy Li Yu really tastes frustration is not on the left, but on the right."

Pale fingers, raised softly, guided Nier's curious gaze, and pointed at a mountain road shrouded in clouds and mist.
