Seance [crossing]

I only heard the third prince pointing to the stone pattern in Li Cong's hand and the woodcut model, and said to Li Zhen who was beside him: "Probably these two things are the reason why Master Li Chen would rush to Yinshan at that time, and at the same time, Master Li Chen After Master Lichen died, he also went to Yinshan..."

Everyone in the room didn't understand what was said, so they had to turn their eyes to Li Zhen who was talking about it, hoping that he would explain it clearly.

However, after the battle between Lichen and Lizhen, the subsequent competition has gone very smoothly, there is no suspense, even the most popular senior brother Lichen in this battle of warriors also lost in the competition with Lichen.And it seemed to be a reminder for what Lichen said when he controlled himself, so don't take it lightly, so in the subsequent games, Lichen put all his eggs in one basket and went all out, and won all the way to the final.After finally defeating the last opponent, Li Chen received the Warrior Medal from Li Cong, the supreme referee, and then turned to face the congratulatory congratulatory Li, Li, and Li. On the shoulders of Zhen, he said earnestly and earnestly: "You two live a good life."

Afterwards, Lichen entered the palace to participate in warrior training, and made final preparations for the memorial ceremony a few months later.Among the people who were defeated in the selection, Li Yu was originally a dignitary in Jicheng. Although the selection of warriors this time was an honorable defeat, his reputation was greatly enhanced, so he waited for his father, the former captain of the left, soon after. After he died of illness, he was logically appointed as the king to inherit his father's title and the position of Zuo Duwei.As for Li Zhen, even though he was defeated, at least he was defeated by his brother, he was not upset, he knew that the two of his brothers would end up like this, fortunately the position of warrior did not fall into the hands of outsiders, Li Zhen was sincere Happy for my brother.This time, when they returned to Li Jin Scattered, his teacher Li Huang pointed out that Li Zhen and Li Ai would marry each other. The parents of the two families had known each other for a long time and had been neighbors for a long time, so they both agreed.

Everything was going well, but one month ago, when the grand ceremony was approaching, Li Chen suddenly disappeared.When the lord of the country heard the news, he couldn't bear it. He hurriedly dispatched people to search everywhere. After searching for several days, he couldn't find any news.A few days later, Fang suddenly heard that the people in the northwest of Jicheng reported that they found the cannibal Xiaoyang in the woods under the Yin Mountain.The lord of the country then sent Liyu, the captain of the left who had always known Lichen, to investigate, and Lizhen, who heard the news, also came here in a hurry. As Lichen's brother, he asked to help him.

The two led a team to the northwest of the city. According to the instructions of the local people, they saw a group of sharp-tongued and hideous Xiaoyang people gathered in one place, fighting for meat, not far away. There are also fire-hating people who look like apes and have black hair fighting with them.Seeing this scene, Lizhen on the side was furious immediately, jumped off the horse, took off the bow-crossbow from his shoulder, aimed at one of the Xiaoyang people and shot an arrow, and the Xiaoyang person immediately Fell dead.Only this noise did not attract the attention of Xiaoyang people who were busy fighting for food.Then Lizhen looked around, saw the long sword on Lizhen's waist beside him, snatched it off, and with a loud roar, he raised his sword and slashed at the Xiaoyang people in front of him. Sensing the danger, the Yang people turned around from the food in front of them, and approached Li Zhen who held the sword.Seeing this, Li Zhen hurriedly ordered the sergeant to subdue the offending Xiaoyang people, while he personally stopped Li Zhen, who was about to kill him, to calm him down.

After cleaning up the chaos at the scene, I saw that the corpse eaten by the Xiaoyang people had already changed beyond recognition, only the torn flesh and rags of clothes were left hanging on the skeleton, and its appearance was horrible.Lizhen broke free from Lizhen's arms, walked slowly towards the skeleton, squatted down trembling, his eyes gradually scanned along the outline of the bones, and first saw the warrior medal that fell nearby.Li Zhen stretched out his hand to pick up the medal, tears filled his eyes, with this medal beside him, the identity of this dead body is self-evident.Li Zhen held the muddy medal in his palm and squeezed it tightly. The hard edges and corners of the medal cut through his palm, and the pain reached his nerves, but it was hard to feel the pain in his heart.Afterwards, Lizhen leaned down again, and searched carefully among the remaining clothing materials on the corpse, and found the pattern stone and the wood carving from a piece of thinly wrapped cloth.The moment Li Chen saw this thing, he felt like a flash of lightning flashed in his heart. Many things that he hadn't noticed in the past combined with what Li Chen said to him when the warriors were fighting, all had meaning today.All of a sudden, Li Zhen had mixed feelings, just squatted there thinking secretly, thinking hard, and secretly wrapped the two things in a cloth towel and kept them on his body, without telling others.

Afterwards, Lizhen saw Lizhen squatting beside the corpse and refused to move, so he stepped forward to comfort him for a while, and ordered his subordinates to carry a stretcher to bring the remains of the body back to the city. Take hemp rope and tie them into a bunch, and escort them to Jicheng.

Therefore, it was a newly promoted warrior who died. When this incident happened, the whole city was shocked. Not only did the warrior with the strongest martial arts in the whole country kill a foreigner, which caused a great loss of face for the people of the country, what's more, he only killed Li Chen. The matter was due to God's punishment, and he thought that it was God who wanted to punish his Kuafu family, so for a while, all the people in Jicheng mourned and panicked.

The lord of the country, Li Cong, was furious, and hastily interrogated the Xiaoyang people, and because the people of the two clans could not understand each other, he only jotted down the facts of the case, and then made a summary of the killing of Lichen and the cannibalization of his body. He also blamed this dry Xiaoyang man, and then ordered that the dry man be beheaded and beheaded.Even so, Li Cong still couldn't let go of his hatred, and ordered Xiaoyang, who lived in the country, to move out of Kuafu country within a time limit.Because of this, the middle school was filled with dicks and mourners for a while. They used to live in Xiaoyang in the northwest of Jicheng, and the people who hated the fire all moved out for a while, leaving only the three princes at that time there. I saw an empty cave.

This is the general history of this matter known to everyone. Only hearing this, Li Cong on the seat asked: "Most of the above-mentioned things have been known to the widow before, but the widow is still unknown to this day. How can the stone and this wood carving prove the cause of Lichen's death?"

After hearing the question, the third prince replied: "My lord doesn't know that this wood carving is not something else, but an arm ornament called Yu Ai, which is in the shape of an oblate ring and is mostly worn by women. And this wood carving is just like your It is about the size of an arm of a person in the country, so we can know that this is the model of Yu Ai made by Lichen for someone in your country. It is said that the noble royal family always loves to make jewelry with tattoo stones. Chen just wanted to use this model to make such a jade ornament as a present for someone." Speaking of which, the third prince also took out a rough stone from his body and handed it to the palace man to present it to Li Cong, which is also a pattern stone. "This grain stone was taken from the mountain when Yu Yinshan broke the formation. It is said that the grain stone is only produced in Yinshan Mountain in your country, so at that time Li Chen had to go against the king's prohibition and worked tirelessly to get the grain stone. Difficult and dangerous, venture into Yinshan."

After everyone heard this, they realized the strangeness.

Speaking of this, the third prince sighed again: "It's also bad luck. If it were in the past, with the skill of Li Chen, a warrior of your country, going to and from the Yin Mountains to look for grain stones, it would be safe. In the present world on the Yin Mountain, if you do not enter the formation with the correct method, those who enter by mistake will be trapped in the maze, trapped in it and unable to get out. This is why many people who passed by the Yin Mountain in the past few months The reason for his disappearance. Li Chen was trapped in the maze, unable to eat and drink for several days, he was already weak and weak. When he tried his best to break out of the maze and returned to the woods under the Yin Mountain, it was too late to call for help. He died here due to weakness, hunger and thirst. The body was discovered by the Xiaoyang people who lived there. The people who fled from Xiaoyang did not know the rules of your country. So he ignored it and ate Li Chen's corpse to satisfy his hunger..."

Everyone: "...!"

After the third prince finished speaking, seeing Li Cong on the seat thinking silently, he cupped his hands upwards and said: "This time, I don't dare to argue one or two things about the fact that the Xiaoyang people ate Lord Li Chen's body, and it is irrefutable; Here I just want to explain a truth to the lord of the country, that is, we should not treat people with opinions. Just like Xiaoyang people, they have always been cruel by nature and like to eat people, but we should not treat them in any way because of them. The relevant deaths are attributed to them, and they need to discuss the facts in order to seek the truth..."

After hearing this, Li Cong on the seat frowned and said to each other: "Young Master, the truth that you have tried so hard to prove is reasonable, but at that time the perpetrators all took justice, and it is too late for regret. Now Even if it is proved that Li Chen's death was not caused by them, it will not help the matter. The result must be that the young master also understood at the beginning, why did the young master still work tirelessly to prove the innocence of this dead man? What's the benefit?"

After hearing the question, the third prince replied with a wry smile: "The question asked by the lord is the same as what I asked when I rescued my companions at the border of your country at that time. At that time, I only said that it was the stereotypes and prejudices in this world. People, just like the people of Xiaoyang at that time, were cruel by nature, so when they were in trouble, others would not believe them or save them; and even though Master Fan Lichen did not die at their hands, others would also blame them for this crime. Blame it. There are countless such examples in the world. For example, in the Middle Kingdom, heroes are based on bloodlines, and in the women's country, women are not as brave as their husbands. There are many countries in the Chaos Continent with different cultures. A culture is all conservative, upholding stereotypes, and then refuses to communicate with each other, so when will the Chaos Continent achieve mutual understanding and friendly exchanges?"

The third prince couldn't help himself for a while, and he was open and honest with the thoughts hidden in his heart.Li Cong was shocked when he heard that the words were shocking to the world and new in theory, and then he blurted out and asked: "Young master's opinion is very high, and it is very popular! This time, the widow is very curious, and the young master said that he was wandering in our country. Just to find a way to enter the secluded capital. Now we know that the young master is outstanding and has different ambitions, so who is the young master?"

Seeing the question, the third prince secretly regretted that he had spoken quickly and had nothing to stop him, but he had to prevaricate what he had said, and he said in his mouth: "The lord is worrying too much. I am an unknown person next time. I just see it for a while, so I can't bear such praise... ..."

Just as he was thinking about a solution, he didn't expect a voice behind him to speak suddenly, and said to Li Cong on the seat: "I would like to report to the lord, Mr. Feng is not an idle person, but His Highness the third prince of the Middle Kingdom!" It was Li Ai.

When Na Li Cong heard the words, he was surprised and said, "Really? How do you know?"

Li Ai replied: "When the women followed His Highness to break the Xuanwu formation, I accidentally heard that Master Yunyong had slipped his mouth. Only then did I learn that His Highness is an extraordinary person, but an expert who concealed his name..."

After hearing this, Li Cong's eyes were complex and flickering, he leaned forward unconsciously, and asked, "It's the suzerain king's family who came to the country in person, what's your business?"

Upon hearing this, the third prince had no choice but to salute with a wry smile: "Xia Yunyin ranks third in the clan. Forgive me, my lord, but I am afraid that my identity will only cause disputes, so I have to conceal my identity."

As soon as the third prince finished speaking, he heard Li Ai speak first and said: "Although your highness is anonymous, but the women of the people get along with him, we know that your highness acts aboveboard and has no intention of doing anything wrong when you come to our country. The king has learned from you."

When Li Cong heard the words, he suddenly realized that when he turned his head back to the hall and saw the third prince, he felt that this person was vaguely similar to Yun Bing. It turned out that not only was this person dressed in the same way as in China, but also because Yun Bing was originally It is the reason of this person's ancestor.Thinking of this, Li Congfang relaxed his expression again, and said in his mouth: "The Third Highness is really extraordinary. At that time, I felt that His Highness resembled his ancestors, and he had his legacy, and he fit His Highness's identity in the dark. It is no wonder that this time can be successful For such a big event, His Highness broke the Xuanwu formation and rescued Li Zhen, but the country owes His Highness a favor."

The third prince also knew Li Cong's concerns about his identity, and immediately said to him: "My lord, don't worry, I'm here only to find a way to enter the secluded capital, I will stay here to achieve my goal, and I will leave your country immediately, and I won't disturb you any more. "

After exchanging polite words with each other, Li Cong asked again: "The death of Li Chen is mostly clear, but Your Highness once said that the death of Li Chen was the cause of Li Zhen's disappearance, what is the meaning of that?"

Hearing this, the third prince didn't answer this question, but turned to face Li Zhen who was at the side and said: "I'm going to ask Lord Li Zhen for advice."
