Hu Xiaotian looked intently and saw a huge skull inside the jade box. The skull was blue and transparent, slightly larger than a normal human skull. The structure was also somewhat different, with the forehead more prominent. Such a structure required a larger brain capacity.
It was much larger than a human being. At first glance, the skull looked like a handicraft carved from blue crystal. Hu Xiaotian picked up the skull and held it in his hands. After looking at it for a while, he was able to conclude that the skull must be the remains of some kind of creature.
The bones may be the two giants depicted on the relief.
Xiyan picked up a black stick more than a foot long from the jade box. She felt that the stick was heavy in her hand, but she didn't know what it was. She looked around and said to Hu Xiaotian: "What is this?"
?”
Hu Xiaotian glanced at her hand, then twisted his mouth with a smirk on his face.
Xi Yan glared at him and said, "Why are you laughing?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "There are men. You will understand after you get married."
Xi Yan was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on! The ground barked, and then threw the black stick out. Hu Xiaotian was just teasing her on purpose. After Xi Yan threw it on the ground, the guy immediately picked it up.
This was not a self-defense stick. He could tell at a glance that it was a sword hilt, a bit like the laser sword in Star Wars. It should be made of some kind of metal, but Hu Xiaotian had never seen it before. It was quite heavy in his hand and felt soft to the touch.
But it doesn't have the coldness of ordinary metal, and the pattern on the top is also very simple.
After Xiyan threw it away, she immediately realized that she had been deceived by Hu Xiaotian. She was so angry that she stepped forward and kicked him on the butt. When she saw Hu Xiaotian twisting the handle, it made a "pop!" sound, but the thing did not respond. Hu Xiaotian continued to twist it.
It moved six times. Although it moved freely, no sparks burst out from it. It is probably that the energy has been exhausted long ago and it is already a useless piece of wood.
Xiyan stretched out her hand: "Give it to me!"
Hu Xiaotian deliberately pretended to be confused: "Which one do you want?"
Xi Yan gritted her teeth and said, "Do you believe I will turn you into a eunuch?"
Hu Xiaotian shook his head and said: "Don't believe it, there are only you and me here. I don't seem to be a weak person!"
This guy's gaze made Xiyan feel a little uneasy, and she whispered: "What do you want to do?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "As long as I am willing, to you, hehe..."
Xi Yan suddenly laughed.
"Aren't you afraid?"
Xi Yan said: "What can I do if I'm afraid? You've never been a good person anyway." Her eyes suddenly became as soft and charming as spring water: "How about I marry you? You take me away from here and go to a place where no one can find me.
A place to spend a lifetime together.”
Hu Xiaotian looked at Xi Yan's intoxicatingly beautiful face and stayed there for a while.
When Xiyan saw this guy's appearance, she was furious. She suddenly raised her hand and hit this guy on the face. Hu Xiaotian tilted his head back in time to avoid her slap and just passed by.
You can tell by the wind of the palm on the tip of the nose that Xiyan used all her strength in this slap.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said, "I really didn't expect you to propose to me."
Xi Yan sneered and said: "Don't be so sentimental, I'm teasing you." A layer of frost covered her pretty face, and there was no trace of smile anymore.
The two continued to search indoors, but the atmosphere suddenly became cold. No matter how Hu Xiaotian took the initiative to talk to her, Xiyan ignored this guy. Although there was a stone door ahead, it should be locked with a pattern.
Something like that was locked. Neither of them understood the mechanism, and even if they saw it, they couldn't open it.
Hu Xiaotian was too lazy to move forward, so he sat down against the stone wall and said to Xiyan, "Have a rest and wait until you wake up before you start working again."
Xi Yan stretched out her hand to him: "Give me the thing!"
Hong Beimo was in Lingxiao Palace at this time. He smiled at Longting Town and said, "The emperor has promised to make your matter public."
Longtingzhen was overjoyed when he heard this. He couldn't wait to say: "Master, has the emperor agreed?"
Hong Beimo nodded.
Long Tingzhen bowed deeply to him and said: "On the day when I ascend the throne, I will never forget the kindness of my master."
Hong Beimo sighed and said: "Although the emperor promised to make your affairs public, he is somewhat hesitant about making you the crown prince."
When Longtingzhen heard this, his heart suddenly fell to the lowest point. When he was just rescued, he thought that being able to see the light of day alive was a gift from God. He never expected to be a prince or even ascend the throne one day. However, in Hongbei Desert, he was
After he helped and taught him medicine to refine his body, his ambition began to flourish like mushrooms after a spring rain. The position of prince was obviously promised by the emperor. Long Tingzhen clenched his fists. For some reason, his temperament was more impulsive than in the past.
Many people are easily angered by external things: "The emperor once promised me personally!"
Hong Beimo judged from his rapid breathing that Long Tingzhen was filled with anger. He patted Long Tingzhen's shoulder to calm him down, turned around, and whispered: "May 16th meeting
Something great has happened."
"What happy event?"
"The Emperor has decided to consummate the marriage between Princess Yongyang and Hu Xiaotian."
Long Tingzhen gritted his teeth and said, "That eunuch? What qualifications does he have to marry the royal princess?"
Hong Beimo said: "You must not underestimate this person. Hu Xiaotian now has three cities in Dongliang County, Dongluocang County, and Wuxing County, and firmly controls the lower reaches of the Yongjiang River. Previously, in the name of suppressing bandits, Hu Xiaotian
Chunjiang went south, drove away the water thieves entrenched in Heishui Village in Bixin Mountain, and occupied Bixin Mountain. It can be said that Yunze is actually under his control."
Long Tingzhen said angrily: "He is clearly encroaching on Dakang's empire and taking the opportunity to strengthen his own power."
Hong Beimo said: "That's true, but he has the support of Princess Yongyang behind him, and the emperor loves Princess Yongyang extremely. Previously, he defied all opinions and established Princess Yongyang as king, which has opened up an unprecedented situation in Dakang.
precedent."
Long Tingzhen roared: "The ancestral family motto cannot be violated, how can a woman be the king?"
Hong Beimo let out a long sigh and said: "When I first found you, the emperor was indeed very happy, and he also expressed his intention to make you the crown prince in front of me. However, after so long, I still haven't seen the emperor take any action.
I knew the emperor’s mind had changed again.”
Long Tingzhen said: "Could it be that he...does he want Qiqi to be the prince?"
Hong Beimo didn't speak, but nodded slowly.
Long Tingzhen could no longer suppress the anger and disappointment in his heart. He suddenly roared and punched the wooden table next to him. The half-foot-thick wooden board was broken in half by his punch.
Hong Beimo said: "If you can't control your emotions, no one can help you."
Longtingzhen suddenly turned his head and looked at Hongbeimo expectantly: "Master, you will help me, right?"
Hong Beimo said: "You are my disciple. If I don't help you, why should I spend so much effort on you?"
Long Tingzhen nodded heavily and said: "Master, as long as you help me ascend to the throne, I will share the world with you!"
Bu Wu stood outside the Yun Temple, quietly waiting for Hong Beimo to come out. Hong Beimo came to him, showed great respect to him, cupped his fists and said, "Hello, Master!"
The weirdo rolled his eyes and said, "Have you found the white-haired man?"
Hong Beimo said: "It was someone who disguised himself as Murong Zhan, the commander of the Imperial Guards, and sneaked into Lingxiao Palace."
Bu Wu said: "How long do you want me to protect this monster?" The monster in his mouth naturally refers to Longting Town.
Hong Beimo said: "On May 16th, when Hu Xiaotian arrives, you kill him, and you and I will not owe each other anything."
Bu Wu nodded slowly and said: "Even if you don't tell me, I won't let him go." He paused and then said: "Does the monster know that although the method of body refining with medicine can improve the body in a short time?
Skill, but lifespan will be shortened a lot?"
Hong Beimo's face darkened and he said coldly: "This matter has nothing to do with Master."
Bu Wu laughed loudly: "I don't bother to care about your affairs. Just for your favor, I feel like I am being imprisoned. I am really depressed to the extreme when facing this monster."
Hong Beimo said: "Master, please be patient, there is not much time left until May 16th."
Bu Wu said: "Finally there is hope. By the way, the guy who rescued the white-haired man last night has a lot of internal strength. I wonder who he is?"
Hong Beimo said: "Master, have you ever seen his martial arts skills?"
Bu Wu shook his head and said: "He didn't dare to fight me head-on, probably because he was afraid of being seen through by me..." At this point, Bu Wu suddenly had a bright idea in his mind. The other party ran away immediately after rescuing the white-haired man. In fact,
With the internal strength shown by the opponent's sneak attack on him, even if he can't defeat himself, he may not be defeated by his hands in a short time. Why should he escape so fast? He doesn't even dare to fight with him head-on? It should be
He is afraid that his martial arts skills will be seen through. There are only a handful of people in the world who have such martial arts. This person knows him very well. He has been imprisoned in Tianlong Temple for thirty years. Apart from the group of monks, he has come into contact with very few people from the outside world.
Very few, could he be...
The words "Hu Xiaotian" appeared in Buwu's mind, but he did not explain it to Hong Beimo. He shook his head and said, "I really have no impression."
Hong Beimo said: "The fact that you are here is likely to be publicized."
Bu Wu said: "It won't take long before the monks from Tianlong Temple will come and cause trouble for me."
Hong Beimo said: "Master, don't worry, no matter how courageous Tianlong Temple is, they will not dare to come to the palace to cause trouble, and they have no conclusive evidence."
Bu Wu said: "I'm not afraid, I just don't want to commit more sins."
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on the imperial city, Qi Qi had already arrived at the Yangxin Palace. She came early to ask for an audience with the emperor. She thought she might be rejected, but she didn't expect that Long Xuanen had already gotten up early and agreed to meet him.
she.
Qiqi asked Yin Zheng: "How is the emperor feeling today?"
Yin Zheng reported in a low voice: "Your Highness Princess Qi, the emperor is in a good mood." (To be continued.)
