Hidden Blade Chapter 27: Mr.’s trust, my burden
Tongcheng is not big, with Xu Han's half-step Immortal Realm internal strength cultivation base, it is easy to lay several sword formations around Tongcheng. Apex novels update fastest
Naturally, this sword formation cannot be said to be so subtle, and even the powerhouse of the ordinary sky hunter can crack it with some hands and feet, but for these 30,000 ordinary people, these sword formations are like thunder ponds, and no one dares to exceed half. step.
Tongcheng was locked up.
It turned into a cage that other people can't get in, but the people in the city can't get out.
As the initiator of all this, Xu Han seemed to be completely unaware of it. He led Fang Ziyu and others, who were also unidentified, into the luxurious residence in front of the saint soldier girl. The mansion is like a Tu emperor who is occupying a magpie's nest.
This is of course a very strange decision. After all, everyone's plan was to leave Tongcheng and even Jingzhou as soon as possible. They naturally wondered what made Xu Han made such a decision at the risk of being besieged by Yuan Xiucheng's army.
And such worries are even more evident in the hearts of the people in Tongcheng.
Naturally, at their level, they can't understand who Xu Han is and what he wants to do. But this does not prevent them from recognizing their identity at this moment. They are all prisoners in Xu Han's hands today, and they can't live or kill each other within a single thought.
Although for ordinary people, their lives have never been in their own hands, but when the facts are so intuitively exposed before their eyes, they still inevitably fall into anxiety and panic.
Of course, Xu Han does not need to care about what these ordinary people think. All he has to do is to make sure that the people in Tongcheng cannot leak out what happened during this five-day situation.
Xue Lian, the leader of the group of assassins, finally agreed to Xu Han's request. This was a choice for him without too many other options. Didn’t he never thought that Xu Han would be sent by Jingzhou The big guys in, summoned them all and then killed them all at once, but under the mediation of the young man Jiang Lai, Xue Lian believed Xu Han for the time being. After all, their current situation would not be bad anymore. Maybe Xu Han would give them. Bring a turning point. But this is still a big bet, but just like a gambler with only three copper plates left, he has to fight his fate and throw all his worth and bet on the table.
That night, Xu Han sat alone in the small courtyard with a black cat in his arms, and under the angry gaze of the yellow monkey, he leisurely closed his eyes and slumbered.
An uninvited guest pushed open the gate of Xu Han's courtyard and came straight to Xu Han.
Xu Han opened his eyes and looked up and down at the young man with confusion in his eyes. He didn't feel too surprised by his arrival. He pointed his finger at the stone table not far away and motioned for him to sit. Then he asked: "What's the important thing for the little lord?"
Li Dingxian's eyes drifted away, and after a while, he asked, "Why do you... want to save them?"
This is of course a very confusing thing for Li Dingxian. His father has always taught him to weigh the pros and cons. Although sometimes it is difficult for him to do it, he is between the lives of the people of Tongcheng and Da Zhou. It was still difficult to choose the former. In his opinion, it was obviously not a good deal to exchange the lives of 30,000 people for the entire Daxia and even the entire world. Even in his impression, Xu Han shouldn't be a person who can do such a thing.
Xu Han asked back: "They?"
Li Dingxian frowned. He felt that Xu Han couldn't fail to know who they were referring to. Xu Han was using Tai Chi, obviously because he didn't want to answer his question. The arrogant little prince did not have the grace of a courteous corporal—or that he could not do this to Xu Han, he stood up angrily and was about to leave.
"If the little prince said they were referring to the people in Tongcheng, then I think the little prince asked the wrong person. Xu never wanted to save them." But Xu Han's voice stepped away from the other side. Suddenly sounded when I went.
Li Dingxian's steps just now hung in the air. He turned his head to look at Xu Han, the confusion between his brows became serious again.
"As I said before, they have already believed in the words of the Emperor of Chu and destroyed this batch of holy medicines, and there will be the next batch of holy medicines. You saved them for a while, but you can’t save their lives, even they won’t. Remembering your good will only treat you as a villain." Xu Han continued.
Li Dingxian is not stupid. After he heard this, he soon recovered. He said in amazement: "So you asked Xue Lian to call those companions to save Xue Lian and others. You want them Take it out together?!"
"But there are more than a thousand people who want to leave the customs, even if they don't have Yuan Xiucheng's chasing soldiers, they will inevitably have a hard fight with the border guards. Why are you..." Li Dingxian paused when he said this. , And said: "Is it related to the copper plate?"
Xu Han squinted and smiled, not commenting on Li Dingxian's guess.
"What about these thirty thousand people? Do you just watch them being deceived by the holy medicine? That's thirty thousand lives!" Li Dingxian saw from Xu Han's expression that there was nothing wrong with what he had guessed. He couldn't help but questioned Xu Han loudly.
Xu Han’s squinted eyes, the cold light flickered, and he said in a deep voice to the extreme: "I said, I can’t save them~ IndoMTL.com~ He said this, and he said again. Said: "Besides, how can the little prince, who has never done anything before, ask Xu with his temperament? "
"I..." Li Dingxian was stuck in the pain, and only after a while did he say a little discouraged: "I... now that I have come this far, why don't you try to save it?"
Xu Han glanced at Li Dingxian with a dim expression, and his tone suddenly eased a little: "Little Prince, what a person should do and what he can do is never said by others, you have to ask your own heart. Fairies are good, For mortals, those who live longer are only a thousand years old, and those who live shorter lives are only a few decades. Since the world is going to go through once, why not go with your own heart?"
Li Dingxian's body shook, and his eyes flashed towards Xu Han. He probably did not expect that Xu Han would say such a thing to him at this time, but he still needs to express his gratitude, Xu Han's voice sounded again.
"Let’s do what the little prince wants to do quickly. Xu only has five days to wait for you. Well, to be precise, only four and a half days are left."
When Li Dingxian heard this, he finally reacted. He bowed his hand to Xu Han very solemnly, but said nothing. After the ceremony, he turned around and strode out of Tongcheng.
At that time, Xu Han squinted at Li Dingxian's back, and squinted again.
If he was right, the little prince seemed to be carrying a copper plate on his body, but he didn't know it.
It wasn't until Li Dingxian's figure completely disappeared from Xu Han's eyes that Xu Han retracted his gaze and looked up at the sky.
It is night, cloudless, and stars are shining above the dome.
He looked at the starlight, the expression on his face suddenly became melancholy, and he muttered to himself: "Whether the sir wants me to carry this wooden box or..."
"Where is this world?"
