Lord Xie Wang's Peerless First Love
Chapter 27
The three of Heliancheng didn't have a carriage, and it was very difficult to travel in the snow at night, so they came to the nearest farmer's house to stay overnight.The head of the household was an old man in his sixties. Seeing that the three of them were handsome and handsome, and they were not vicious robbers and snitches, he took the three of them to an unused room in the backyard without further questioning.Not only that, but also enthusiastically rushed to send candles, hot soup, and charcoal basins, and finally sent a few quilts before leaving with a smile.
The three of them sat around the square table, drinking hot soup over a charcoal fire, and then, Qian Wucai explained the reason for this encounter.
"On the night after you left, the Tuhu family rebelled together with the Diegui family, the Qishi family, the Deadwood family, and the Lieqiu family."
Wu Yuyan asked: "Five major families? Why not six major families?"
Both Qianwu and He Liancheng looked at Wu Yuyan in surprise.
Wu Yuyan said: "Because of Asu's relationship, I have some understanding of the nobles in the Nether Realm. Since ancient times, there has been a tradition in the Nether Realm that ten nobles come out of a thousand generations, and one king comes out of ten nobles. That is to say, a thousand world ghosts Only ten nobles can be selected from the family, and only one family can be selected from the ten nobles to become the royal family. Except for the Fushan family and the Zanghai family that were cut off from the ten noble families, there are still eight remaining. However, these eight families Among them, there are your mother's family, the heavy-screen family, and your in-laws, the Huamu family. Naturally, these two families will not rebel against you. As for the Fenyu family, I heard that his family is the most brutal and bloodthirsty. , This time there is no rebellion, which makes me very puzzled."
Qian Wudao: "I am also deeply surprised by this. Not only did the people of the Fen Yu family not participate in it, on the contrary, that Fen Yu Liuyin would protect me regardless of his life. It is obvious that the person who has been against me and persecuted me It's him."
He Liancheng was very concerned about this, and asked, "Why did he force you, and what did he force you to do?"
Qian Wudao: "It happened 500 years ago. At that time, the aristocrats seemed to be calm, but in fact there was an undercurrent. The scandal of the Fushan family became the breaking point of all this. Fushan Qiushui fell in love with human beings, Violated the law. Although Qiushui voluntarily bears all the consequences, the nobles took the opportunity to maliciously punish him severely, which not only caused the entire Fushan family to be demoted, Qiushui himself was not allowed to die, but was sentenced to eternal imprisonment in the abyss of crime."
Heliancheng had personally suffered the torture of the Abyss of Sin. Although it was only the lightest punishment of the Rose Whip, the pain of being tortured day and night, lingering in the alternation of life and death again and again, until today, when I recall it, I still shudder.The feeling of desperate desire to die quickly is still fresh in my memory.
If it wasn't for his luck to meet Qianwu, He Liancheng couldn't bear to imagine what would happen to him at this moment. "That's why Qiu Xu went so hard and killed his younger brother with his own hands?"
Qian Wudao: "That's right. Qiu Xu was also sentenced to Ling Chi for this reason. It's more an insult than a punishment. The young junior who became the patriarch at the age of [-] has already made those incompetent old men feel a crisis. At that time, The person who wants to execute Qiu Xu is Fen Yu Liuyin."
He Liancheng said: "I have seen this person before, but he seems to have a very good relationship with Qiu Xu."
Qian Wu said: "I didn't know the private relationship between the two of them at that time, and I didn't know that for a person who committed a crime, living is more painful than dying. I pleaded with my father, but my father avoided me. Helpless Under the circumstances, on the day of the execution, I broke into the execution ground and rescued Qiu Xu."
When He Liancheng heard the words, his eyes froze suddenly, he used to only think of Qiu Xu as Qianwu's follower, but he didn't think there was such a friendship between the two of them.Thinking of this, He Liancheng glanced at Wu Yuyan who was sitting beside him from the corner of his eye.Seeing Wu Yuyan with a smile on his face, he felt the same way.
As Qianwu talked, his thoughts were brought back to that day.
The [-]-year-old Qianwu stood in the center of Xingtai, between Fushan Qiuxu and Fen Yu Liuyin, and ordered to the astonished Fen Yu Liuyin: "You can't kill him."
The astonishment on Fen Yu Liuyin's face instantly turned into a threatening stare: "Your Highness Qianwu, you are not yet the Lord of the Underworld, and you do not have the power to pardon death-row prisoners. Please step aside."
Qian Wudao: "But I am the future Mingjun."
Liu Yin said: "Then order me after you have truly become the Lord of the Underworld."
The patriarchs of the nine nobles who supervised the execution all looked solemnly displeased.
Qian Wudao: "Then I will execute Fushan after I become the Lord of the Underworld."
The noble patriarchs snorted coldly, with disappointment and dissatisfaction in their eyes.
Qianwu didn't notice the eyes of other people, but Fen Yu Liuyin understood it clearly, so he lowered his voice and warned seriously: "Your Highness, don't mess around any longer. This will only make others suspect that you are not qualified to succeed Mingjun."
Hearing this, Qiu Xu reluctantly raised his body carrying a heavy yoke of guilt, and looked up at Qianwu, "Qianwu, don't plead for me anymore. As the patriarch of a clan, I let the clansmen live in such a state, I I have no face to live in the world. It is my last honor to die under Liu Yin's hands."
Qianwu said angrily: "Qiu Shui has already paid the price for the mistake he made, why should he involve the whole clan, why should he involve Fushan?"
Fen Yu Liuyin said firmly: "Because this is the law."
Qian Wudao: "Such laws are too cruel, I will definitely sit on the throne of Hades, and I will definitely abolish such absurd laws. At that time, Fushan will be innocent!"
Someone among the nobles finally couldn't help but say, "Let's wait until you really sit on the throne of Hades."
"I just don't know how long I'll have to wait."
"Yes, yes, it may be thousands of years, or it may be tens of thousands of years. Are we going to let a condemned prisoner live for so long in the name of waiting for the new law?"
"A thousand years old!"
Some of the nobles showed disdainful and smug chuckles.
Qianwu said: "I will conquer the fire of purgatory at the age of one thousand and become the king of the underworld."
Fen Yu Liuyin said in shock: "Your Highness, stop joking."
"I'm not kidding, I will definitely do it. Just let Fushan wait for 500 years. If I can't do it after 500 years, I will never stop you from executing Fushan again."
Fen Yu Liuyin's hand holding the knife suddenly tightened, and he looked at Qianwu without blinking, "Your Highness..."
Someone among the nobles said: "His Royal Highness is really smart. He made a bet without paying any price, and allowed the condemned prisoner to live for 500 years in vain. I don't think there is any need for laws in the Nether Realm. Just say empty words That's it."
Qian Wudao: "What do you mean by that?"
The noble said: "Fushan Qiuxu can live for another 500 years, but if your highness does not become the king of the underworld after 500 years, what will your highness do?"
Qian Wudao: "Then I will give up the position of Mingjun!"
Fen Yu Liuyin and Fu Shan Qiuxu were shocked and said: "Your Highness!"
Fen Yu Liuyin raised the knife in his hand, "The position of Emperor Ming is not a trifling matter. The time for execution has come, please step aside quickly, Your Highness!"
Qianwu stood in front of Liuyin with arms crossed, aggressively, "No one can kill Fushan today!"
Fen Yu Liuyin suddenly raised his head and asked the sky, "Master Mingjun, do you also agree with His Highness's nonsense?"
Everyone raised their heads and looked up after hearing the words, and the evil king Yanqian sat firmly in the golden chair stepping on the black clouds, followed by the cold and beautiful evil king Qianxue.
The evil king Yanqian just glanced at the silent Qianxue beside him, and after Qianxue nodded, the evil king Yanqian announced to everyone: "Then according to what Qianwu said, the limit is 500 years."
......
The room was quiet, except for sparks flying in the charcoal basin on the ground from time to time, making a slight beeping sound.
He Liancheng said quietly: "You are really impulsive."
Qianwu said nothing.
He Liancheng asked again: "He was also protecting you at that time, just like this time. But what happened to the seal on your body?"
Qian Wudao: "The rebels surrounded the Golden Palace, took away the black firework order from Mingjun, and tried to burn me to death in the Golden Palace with black flames. My strength is not enough to contend with the black flames, so we passed the death penalty Jing fled to the gate of hell, but he didn’t expect the rebels to be waiting there. Liuyin and Fushan were seriously injured by the black flames. Just when I wanted to die with the rebels, Uncle Liefeng and Hua Mu Mishuang just in time Came to save me."
Wu Yuyan said worriedly: "As you said, Lord Ming's whereabouts are unknown, and the rebel army is large and powerful. It is indeed the safest thing for you to seal your spiritual power and hide it in the world."
Qian Wu laughed at himself and said: "Thinking that I am the heir to the royal family, it is really ridiculous to be chased and killed by mere ghosts, but I have no power to fight back."
He Liancheng took Qianwu's hand, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you."
Seeing the situation, Wu Yuyan stood up and said calmly: "It seems that I am a bit redundant. Forget it, I will go outside to watch tonight, junior brother, you can stay and take care of him."
He Liancheng held Wu Yuyan back, and was about to say something when he heard a burst of voices outside the door.The three immediately became alert.After extinguishing the charcoal fire in the charcoal basin and blowing out the candles, Wu Yuyan pushed the door open a small gap to spy on the situation outside.
A group of people rushed into the courtyard in a rough voice, among them were two ghost slayers and three ghost masters.
A ghost master grabbed the old man, took out a portrait from his arms, showed it to him, and asked, "Have you ever seen this man?"
The old man was trembling with fright, waved his hands again and again and said, "No, I haven't seen it before."
The ghost master threatened: "This person has committed a heinous crime. The emperor ordered us to arrest him. If anyone dares to cover up, he will be punished with the same crime."
Hearing this, the old man didn't say anything, but unconsciously glanced sideways in the direction of the backyard.
The ghost master was suspicious, and saw a few rows of messy footprints on the snow leading to the backyard, so he asked: "Old man, is there anyone in your house?"
The old man trembled and stammered: "No, I have never been here."
The ghost master pushed the old man away, and walked towards the backyard with the portrait.
Wu Yuyan was shocked because the person in the portrait was actually Qianwu!
"Too bad, someone must have deliberately sent the news of Qianwu's exile to the palace. Now the emperor is also sending people around to arrest Qianwu. It seems that the world is not safe anymore."
The ghost master came with the portrait and kicked the door panel open, the room was pitch black, there was still heat from the charcoal fire, but there was no one in sight.
The three of them sat around the square table, drinking hot soup over a charcoal fire, and then, Qian Wucai explained the reason for this encounter.
"On the night after you left, the Tuhu family rebelled together with the Diegui family, the Qishi family, the Deadwood family, and the Lieqiu family."
