Gao Wenchong sat quietly in front of his desk, with the flickering candlelight illuminating his face. He had worked hard for the country for decades, and at the age of fifty, he looked old. Although he was old, he still looked like a handsome old man.
Although he was a prime minister, his daily life was very simple. Even the underwear he wore were the kind that could be bought on the street.
Just now, as soon as Xu An stepped into the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gao Wenchong had already noticed his presence. At first, he didn't pay attention because there were many people in the world who came to the Prime Minister's Mansion out of curiosity to find out what was going on over the years.
I remember that there were some brave ones who rushed directly into Gao Wenchong's study and insisted on meeting him. In response, Gao Wenchong was never angry. If he was in a good mood, he would serve wine to others and sit with them to chat for a while.
But as a prime minister of a country, can he really open large houses day and night without setting up government troops to protect himself? Yes, Gao Wenchong is such a wise prime minister.
However, no one in the world knows that Gao Wenchong is not only a talented scholar, but also a swordsman.
It was just that he had been sharpening his sword for decades and rarely used it after he attained the crown. As a result, except for his close friend Wang Huan, no one in the world knew that there was a swordsman prime minister in the Song Dynasty.
Just now, Gao Wenchong used his sword and cut off one of Xu An's arms, for no other reason than because the dog Xu An actually went to his daughter's small attic and plotted evil intentions.
Of course, he didn't go into it too deeply. Cutting off one of his arms was just a punishment. As for whether the person who came was dead or alive, he just let him go.
This is how the prime minister can punt the boat.
…
Xu An fled in panic on the street. One of his shoulders was cut off. The wound was so huge that he couldn't cover it no matter how hard he tried. Dark green blood flowed all the way and dripped all over the floor.
"I didn't expect that there would be such a master in the prime minister's palace..." Xu An said hoarsely, his tone full of annoyance and hatred.
Because of the pain, heavy cold sweat fell from his forehead, and the muscles on his face twitched.
Now that things have happened, he no longer has any thoughts about women. With such a serious injury, he must quickly go to the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion for help.
As long as he goes in front of Lu Heng, he can be saved no matter what. Just like the previous times, Xu An is sure that there is nothing Lu Heng can't do.
After all, for someone who can even come back from the dead, there is absolutely no problem in equipping him with an arm.
As the saying goes, a gentleman will burn the desire to survive in adversity, and then think of the people in life who treat him well, such as his parents, wife, children, and friends.
On the contrary, when villains face adversity, they will think of the person they hate and blame the person they hate for the current situation.
At this time, Xu An naturally thought of Xie Changyuan.
When Xie Changyuan's one-eyed and one-armed image appeared in his mind, Xu An's face gradually darkened, and his delicate, sharp and yellowed teeth clenched tightly, making a squeaking sound that made people's scalp numb.
"Xie Changyuan..." Xu An's face was twisted and he gritted his teeth.
Before Xie Changyuan appeared, everything was smooth sailing for him, Xu An, because a big secret in his heart gave him insights and knowledge far beyond this era, as well as many precious spiritual wealth.
With these and the support of the Twelve Divine Palaces, he became a famous person in Bianliang City. With his unprecedented poetic talent, he squeezed into the upper class circles and made friendship with the princes, generals and princes. Everyone looked up to him.
He is a talented poet and treats him with courtesy.
In the court, someone was already preparing to recommend him to become an official in the Hanlin Academy. Even his father took advantage of him and was about to be promoted.
Of course, the best benefit for him is that all the courtesans in the city let him sleep with him without charging a penny.
He once imagined that if he continued to develop steadily, sooner or later he would be able to become a very popular minister. If he married a few beautiful princesses and published a poem every other year, sooner or later no one in the world would recognize him!
He even dreamed of becoming the emperor of the Song Dynasty!
However, when Xie Changyuan appeared, all his fantasies became a joke.
This man was like a tornado, easily razing the beautiful scenery created by Xu An to the ground. It was because of Xie Changyuan that Xu An became the person he is now.
It can be said that Xu An's hatred for Xie Changyuan is as overwhelming as the ocean!
Xu An covered the wound on his shoulder and unknowingly walked to a street that was neither wide nor narrow.
He stopped and narrowed his sinister eyes.
This street was the street where he was ambushed by Xie Changyuan after he came out of Xianggui Tower that day.
Last time, he was almost kicked to death by Xie Changyuan.
But this time, he was still seriously injured, but at the end of the street in front of him, there was a person standing.
Looking from a distance, the person who came was more than nine feet long, holding a sword in his right hand, but his left sleeve was empty, like a flag moving in the wind.
This tall body gives people a strong oppressive force, especially for Xu An now. The person coming is none other than Xie Changyuan!
Xie Changyuan had been guarding the eaves of Xianggui Tower, waiting wholeheartedly for the Oiran killer to appear. His patience was almost gone.
But just now, he suddenly saw a white light flashing somewhere in the city. This white light was very unusual, like some kind of signal. Xie Changyuan rushed over immediately, and ended up blocking Xu An in the street.
.
When enemies met, Xie Changyuan first looked at Xu An in confusion, and then he understood something.
He looked at Xu An teasingly.
"Are you the Oiran Killer?"
At first, he was surprised that Xu An was not dead, but then he thought of the strange methods of the Twelve Divine Palaces, and he naturally figured it out.
Facing Xie Changyuan, Xu An could no longer say a word. His expression was gloomy and his heart was in turmoil.
Emotions of resentment and fear filled his mind. He wanted to pounce on Xie Changyuan and eat his flesh, but why wasn't he afraid of him?
This one-eyed, one-armed, vulgar warrior is like his nemesis. Every time he appears, he will cause great damage to him. He seems to have become his inner demon!
When a person's fear reaches the extreme, it will turn into anger. If there is anger in it from the beginning, the combination of the two will produce courage.
This was the case with Xu An. He did not speak, but smiled for no reason, and strode towards Xie Changyuan.
"Hahahaha! Xie Changyuan, Xie Changyuan!"
Xu An looked crazy and his laughter was particularly harsh.
Then, his face turned grim, the black energy around him suddenly surged, and a brown arm actually poked out from the huge wound on his shoulder.
With a pop, this brown but skinless hand was directly exposed to the air, like a newborn devil's arm.
"Bah bang bang!"
Xu An was still laughing, but he was clapping with both hands. I don't know the reason for his action, but it all showed that he was sinking.
He was getting closer and closer to Xie Changyuan, and the veins on his forehead were popping out, and the surface of his skin was gradually covered with dense scales, which looked very scary.
He just walked slowly towards Xie Changyuan, clapping and laughing.
On the opposite side, Xie Changyuan looked at him expressionlessly.
"You're here after all."
Less than twenty steps away from Xie Changyuan, Xu An said his last words.
Immediately afterwards, he rushed over like a fierce ghost. In the blink of an eye, his entire head changed drastically.
His hair fell out rapidly, his ears retracted into his skull, his lower jaw suddenly protruded to the middle of his body, and his nose collapsed.
His pupils shrank sharply, became weird in shape, and the color of his eyeballs also changed to brown. Today, Xu An's appearance has changed drastically, his body is covered with tiny scales, and even his hands have turned into sharp claws.
Really, in an instant, a big living person turned into a half-human, half-lizard monster!
