Nightfall Chapter 275: There is blood in the palms, and there are people on the bridge

Xiahou smiled, walked slowly out of the umbrella held by his subordinates, walked into the wind and snow, his face suddenly converged with a smile, and looked at him indifferently and said, "This is the choice of the college?"

Ning Que also smiled and said, "Don't be afraid. This is my own choice and has nothing to do with the academy."

Xiahou said indifferently: "If you want to die, then you will die."

Ning Que said: "I don't want to die, I just want you to die."

Xiahou looked at him and said after a long silence: "You are a lunatic."

Ning Que replied: "Fifteen years ago, I escaped from Chang'an City, and it took the determination and perseverance to die to survive. It was just to go crazy. Isn't it worth it?"

Xiahou was silent for a moment and said: "It's really worth it."

The argument of complaining with virtue has always been unpopular in the Tang Dynasty. People living in this land are accustomed to being simple and direct. If you hit me, I will hit you. If you want to kill me, I will kill you. You kill With my father, I'm going to kill your father and you, so everyone took it for granted that Ning Que invited Xiahou to a life and death duel.

The imperial court promised through the academy to cut off the past and let Xiahou return to the old age. It is not to let the complicated things of the past affect the future direction of the empire, and do not want Xiling Temple to reach into Chang'an. If Ning Que wants to use conspiracy, Such methods against Xiahou will affect this metabolic process, but he chose this simplest or stupid method today, but it will not leave any sequelae, because if the environment is fair, the duel must be Fair.

Fairness does not mean that there is no problem. Everyone thinks that Ning Que crosses the border to challenge General Xiahou and is looking for death. No one wants to see Ning Que die because he is a disciple of the Master, but they can’t stop this now. The duel can only be expected that Xiahou will not accept Ning Que's invitation.

As the pinnacle of martial arts, it is indeed very humiliating to refuse the challenge of a cave profound realm. Therefore, the prince staring at Xiahou faintly implored.

Xiahou seemed to not feel the prince's gaze at all, squinted slightly, looked at Ning Que and said, "Since you want to die in my hands..."

At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps at the gate of the palace, and several eunuchs of high rank desperately ran outside the gate. The official clothes on his body were messy, and he looked embarrassed. In the cold and snowy day, he was sweating profusely, and he was rushing out of the deep palace.

Lin Gonggong running at the front of the **** group. Listening to Xiahou’s voice from afar, there was a look of horror on his face, like a squeaky goose, shouting: "Your Majesty has a purpose. No one is allowed to move!"

The big figures at the outer gate of the palace heard this shout, their expressions suddenly relaxed, thinking that only your Majesty in this world can stop this challenge.

Xiahou seemed to have never heard the sharp voice from the palace gate behind him, nor did he hear His Majesty’s will, and continued indifferently: "...Then I will fulfill you."

After saying this, he took a knife from his own back and sneered. Cut the palm of his left hand a big way. Compared with Ning Que's slow palm cutting, this movement was very simple and powerful.

Xiahou has no expression on his face. Slowly clenching his left hand into a fist, thick blood spilled from the tiger's mouth.

……

……

Grandpa Lin has never run so fast or so hard in his life. When he ran outside the palace gate out of breath and looked at Xiahou's bleeding palm, his face suddenly became extremely pale, and his legs softened and sat in the snow.

Prince Li Peiyan's face was as pale as snow.

Xu Shi’s silver eyebrows were calm and low like snow on a willow by the lake. He looked at Xiahou and said with no expression on his face: "Cancel."

Xiahou shook his head and said indifferently: "He can revoke, but I can't, because I have my pride."

Listening to these words, Ning Que began to applaud.

His left palm was still bleeding, and with the clapping motion, the blood was slapped and spattered around, falling on his black uniform, falling on the snow all over the floor, the picture looked extremely bloody.

The applause was also very bloody, and the blood popped, giving people a feeling of freezing.

Ning Que said: "I am not disappointed. You are still that arrogant and violent general, you are still proud to be stupid, I hope you continue to be so proud."

Xiahou ignored his mockery and said blankly: "When?"

On that thin challenge paper, the date column is blank.

Ning Que said, "As long as you leave Chang'an City."

Xiahou said: "I will leave today."

Ning Que said: "Then today."

Xiahou said: "Very well, I will leave after killing you. It shouldn't be too long."

Ning Que said: "Maybe you won't set off again."

Xiahou still has no expression, and said indifferently: "I will determine the time, and your location."

"I have prepared the location for a long time."

Ning Que said: "I bought a lot of houses on the banks of Yanming Lake. I don’t need to worry about hurting the innocent when I fight there. Besides, I have made some preparations there. , I’m not as good as you, so I want to take advantage of this."

When the two had a conversation, no one intervened in the room, and they listened in shock and helplessly. The expression on their faces didn't change until they heard Ning Que's choice of fighting location.

In fact, many big figures in Chang'an knew that Ning Que bought a house on the bank of Yanming Lake. Military figures like General Xu Shi knew that Ning Que had done some tricks there, so they treated Ning Que. Choosing this place is not unexpected, it's just that he will make it clear to Xiahou.

Ning Que looked at Xiahou and said, "Mind?"

Xiahou said: "Since you are proud, even if you are stupid, you still have to be proud after all."

Ning Que shook his head and said: "Pride kills people."

Xiahou said: "Goshawk will be sent by the sky if he is not proud of the ants."

"Enough! You two lunatics!"

Prince Li Peiyan's face was pale and his eyes were full of flames. He looked at Xiahou and scolded: "Have you ever thought about how to confess to the master if you kill this person? How does the court confess to the master?"

"This king uses this crown to change an hour and time."

After saying this, he resolutely took off the crown on top of his head and placed it on the snow between Ning Que and Xiahou. He looked back at Minister Zhu Wenwu and said in a cold voice, "What are you still waiting for? !"

The court officials all woke up, and under the support of their subordinates, they dispersed at the fastest speed. Looking for a way to stop this duel, Academician Zeng Jing wanted to walk in front of Ning Que to persuade him a few words, but looking at his **** palm, he just sighed and retreated to the back.

Xu Shi's eyes drooped slightly, as if looking at Xiahou and Ning Que. As if looking at the wind and snow in the sky, he calmly said: "For more than ten years, why bother to wait for an hour?"

After saying this, he turned and left the palace gate, not knowing where he was going.

……

……

In front of the Fengxue Palace. The court officials dispersed one by one, leaving only a few scholars like Zeng Jing to watch.

In the solitude, Xiahou suddenly said: "The flag is coming."

The Yuqiao end in the distance. It is a guard of honor for the general's return, and hundreds of people have been waiting for a long time. Listening to these two words, a soldier rushed away, took a big flag from the guard of honor, and then stood solemnly behind General Xiahou. The cold wind and sleet roared, suddenly blowing the big flag away.

That is the flag of the King of the Tang Dynasty, and the flag is blood red. It seemed to be stained with blood of tens of thousands of enemies, whizzing and dancing in the wind and snow, and the palace gates were immediately killed.

Ning Que looked at the blood flag behind Xiahou. Looking at the blood redness of his face reflected by the flag, he said: "Use the flag to help you, it seems you are really scared."

Xiahou looked at the blood indifferently. There is no him in the eyes.

Ning Que smiled and said, "Umbrella is here."

With a sound, Sangsang opened the **** umbrella again to cover the heavy snow drifting overhead.

In the wind and snow, a blood flag and a black umbrella face each other far away.

……

……

Mr. Thirteen of the Academy, Ning Que, issued a life-and-death challenge to General Xiahou. This news reached every mansion in Chang'an City in the shortest possible time.

No one thinks that Ning Que can win, so no one wants to watch General Xiahou kill him, because no one knows what attitude the Master will show because of Ning Que's death.

The Master hasn’t spoken for many years, and has even been forgotten by many common people in the world. But for the big figures in the court, this definitely does not mean that the Master’s voice no longer has power, but because of what he said. In a word, for the Datang Empire, it was all thunder above the clouds.

This is a fair challenge, and it was initiated by Ning Que. Maybe even if Ning Que is dead, the Master will still abide by the Tang Law and remain silent, but no one dares to take this risk, even if it is small. If Ning Que’s death, the master becomes angry, I’m afraid the whole city of Chang’an will be destroyed.

When the national teacher Li Qingshan appeared in front of the cloud gate formation, he had been thinking about these things, so when he heard the reply from the master of the college, he did not wake up for a long time.

"This is the personal affair of Junior Junior Brother, and the Academy will not stop him in accordance with the rules of the Academy."

Li Qingshan frowned and said: "But Ning Que is seeking his own death."

The big brother said gently: "Since it is self-seeking, who can stop it?"

Li Qingshan couldn't suppress the shock in his heart, and said: "If Mr. Thirteen really died in the hands of General Xiahou, what will the Academy... do?"

The big brother smiled and said: "We will miss him."

……

……

In Chang'an City, there is a Yulin army.

This powerful army responsible for guarding the imperial city has an unimaginable power, a strong spiritual practitioner with Tianshu and Nanmen View, the most important thing is to have a strong will and determination.

According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the Yulin Army now only obeys the orders of two people, His Majesty the Emperor of Tang, and General Xu Shi.

In the cold wind and snow, the Yulin army began to form a team, and then prepared to leave the camp, but had to stop in front of the Yuqiao outside the camp because there was a man on the bridge.

The man was wearing a high crown and robe, sitting cross-legged in the snow on the bridge, with his head slightly lowered.

Xu Shi looked at the man on the bridge and could no longer suppress his anger. He shouted like a spring thunder at the end of the bridge, and the flying snow was shaken: "Jun Mo, the person who blocked the road is dead!"

The man on the bridge is naturally Jun Mo, the second brother of the college.

"The person who blocked the way died? Tang law never had such a discussion, and Gu Li never heard of it."

The second senior brother raised his head, looked at the Datang military leader under the bridge, and said calmly: "In this case, if you want me to die, you must die first."
