In the cave under the cliff, a man with a bloodless face and dying was tightly tied to the stone in the cave with iron chains. The man closed his eyes and lowered his head. He didn't know if he was unconscious or dead.
.
Suddenly, there were slight footsteps and the sound of grinding on the ground from the entrance of the cave. The tied man opened his eyes feebly, licked his dry and pale lips, raised his head and looked forward, and asked in a hoarse and low voice, "Who are you?"
Who? Why do you want to arrest me?"
He was waiting for someone at Yuetian Inn with Shunfen, but this man suddenly appeared, captured him and tied him up here. With his current appearance, it was impossible for anyone to recognize him.
Sima Heng slowly walked up to the man, glaring at the man coldly with his sharp black eyes, and a sneer appeared on his lips, "I haven't seen you for five years, the fourth prince is fine!"
"W-who are you?"
The man's dull eyes suddenly brightened up, and he carefully looked at the man in purple in front of him. The voice sounded familiar, but he had never seen that shocking face.
Who is this person and why should he be arrested? He has obviously changed his appearance. How does this person know his identity?
"The Fourth Prince doesn't know me?" A strange smile appeared on Sima Heng's lips, and he took out a mask and put it on his face. "If that's the case, does the Fourth Prince know me?"
Long Chenhao's eyes widened in shock when Sima Heng took out the mask. When Sima Heng put the mask on his face, he was completely stunned.
Is it him? He's not dead! He's back!
"It's you, you didn't die in Long Chenyi's hands?" Long Chenhao's pale face was full of shock, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Why do you want to arrest me? Five years ago, you didn't hurt me enough.
Is it miserable? This time, how do you want to harm me?"
Sima Heng took the mask and threw it away, and approached Long Chenhao with a sneer. "What do you say, fourth prince? Five years ago, I helped you get rid of the prince and the emperor, and also slandered Long Chenyi. You were incompetent and didn't take the opportunity to kill him."
You killed Long Chenyi and snatched the throne from him, and now you are blaming me!"
"Hmph! If you hadn't been behind my back and encouraged me to fight for the throne, how could I have ended up in this situation?" Long Chenhao gritted his teeth and hated Sima Heng, "Let me go, I'm already useless to you.
If I have no use value, what’s the use of arresting me.”
Sima Heng leaned sideways against the stone cave wall, his narrow and deep black eyes narrowed a bit, "Since you have the ambition to seize the throne, but do not have the ability, it is your incompetence that has led you to where you are now.
, what does it have to do with me.
If you didn't have a guilty conscience and ran away, you would be the one sitting on the throne now, not Long Chenyi, and you wouldn't be issued a pursuit order and run away and hide in disguise!"
Long Chenhao sneered and glared at Sima Heng angrily. If he didn't run away back then, would he still be alive today?
Even if Long Chen was seriously injured, it would be difficult for him to reach the sky if he wanted to kill him. What's more, he was still guarded by the three great guards, the knights who protected the village, and a large number of royal guards led by the dynasty.
"How did you recognize me when I'm in this situation now, showing up in disguise?" Long Chenhao was the most annoyed, but he was extremely puzzled that his current appearance was discovered by others.
"How did you get the Nine-tone Mingqin in Leng Hanqing's hand?" Sima Heng asked without answering. The Nine-note Mingqin was her mother's harp. After Loulan's death overnight, the Nine-tone Mingqin and the soul
The Sword of Shang also disappeared along with it.
He knew that the Nine-Yin Mingqin fell into the hands of the previous emperor. He once entered the palace as the master of the Meteor Pavilion and searched secretly, but in the end he returned without success. He did not expect that the Nine-Yin Mingqin would fall into the hands of Long Chen.
Hao's hands.
Hearing this, Long Chenhao was shocked and his face became paler, "What did you do to Leng Hanqing?"
"Of course I'll kill him!"
"Is the Nine-tone Mingqin here with you?"
"That's right!!"
"You know everything!!?"
"Everything you should know is known, and everything you shouldn't know is known!" Sima Heng's face was as cold as frost, and his eyes were sharp, "How did you get the Nine-note Mingqin? Where is the Soul Sword?"
"Haha!" Long Chenhao laughed with a cracked mouth: "It is rumored that the Holy Lady of Loulan has spiritual power. There are countless rare treasures in the country. The Loulan holy objects can even bring people back to life and have the effect of immortality!
More than 20 years ago, my father deliberately entered Loulan. In order to obtain the elixir of immortality, he sent troops to attack Loulan and annihilated Loulan in one fell swoop. In the end, he did not find the elixir of immortality, but unexpectedly found the Nine-Yin Ming that had been lost for hundreds of years.
The harp and the sword of soulshang.
After returning to the dynasty from Loulan, for fear of being stolen by the other two countries, my father ordered people to secretly build an underground secret room in the royal study to store the Nine-note Musical Qin and the Soul Sword!"
"Where is the Soul Sword?" Sima Heng's dark eyes narrowed slightly, "Hand over the Soul Sword, and I will spare your life!"
"Do you think I'm a fool? If I hand over the Soul Sword, will I still be alive?" Long Chenhao looked at Sima Heng and frowned: "Let me go, you still have a chance to get back the treasure that belongs to Loulan, kill me
, you can never get the Soul Sword!"
Sima Heng's ruthless eyes flashed, murderous aura suddenly rose up all over his body, he grabbed Long Chenhao's neck and said coldly: "Threatening me, you are just kidding with your life!"
"Ah -" Long Chenhao screamed, his neck seemed to be strangled, and his pale face instantly turned purple. He opened his mouth and breathed desperately, and struggled to squeeze out a stilted word from his throat, "Let...
...Let me go... I am the only one in this world... I know the whereabouts of the Soul Sword!!"
"Tell me, where is the Soul Sword?" Sima Heng loosened his grip on Long Chenhao's neck. "Don't challenge my patience and authority, unless you want me to break your neck!"
"Cough! Cough!" The hand on his neck loosened a little, and Long Chenhao coughed violently. His whole body kept shaking, and even the chains that tied him rattled.
After a long time, Long Chenhao finally stopped coughing, and the purple red on his face receded, showing a bit of blush. He frowned and looked at Sima Heng in pain, and said in a hoarse voice: "I will tell you the whereabouts of the Soul Sword."
You, can you let me live!"
"What qualifications do you have to negotiate terms with me!!" Sima Heng said and clapped his hands twice.
The blood python that had been guarding outside the cave suddenly rushed to Long Chenhao after hearing the sound, staring at Long Chenhao with its bloody mouth open.
"ah--"
The sudden appearance of the huge blood python made Long Chenhao's heart shrink in fright, and he screamed. His eyes were filled with fear as he stared at the big bloody mouth in front of him. He was sweating all over his body and trembling with fear.
"If you want to become the blood python's food, I can help you!" Sima Heng walked up to the blood python and patted the blood python's head.
The blood python obediently rubbed his shoulder and stepped back half a meter.
