Chapter 860 Wang Beiwang

Hearing the sound, Wang Xiu shouted happily: "Brother is back!"

The little girl waved her two little arms excitedly and hurriedly ran out of the patio and rushed to the door.

Both Zhang Yuanqing and the Queen saw each other's wildly changing expressions.

Such a coincidence?Are you back now?Fuck, this copy is going to kill me, I just walked out of the wolf's den and into the tiger's mouth!
Zhang Yuanqing knew that after leaving the palace, he was likely to encounter the Qinglong Gang and the Shenrui Army. After all, these two were "elite monsters" in the dungeon. However, he never expected that as soon as he escaped from the palace, he would run into members of the Qinglong Gang. 's home.

Calm down, what about the members of the Qinglong Gang? He is not the emperor, maybe he is just an ordinary gang member. Even if he knows that I am the emperor, he can easily subdue him and hypnotize him. But what if he is a master?
It was getting dark, and a fight would definitely attract the attention of the city defense troops. Once their whereabouts were exposed, they would be killed.

As the thoughts turned, footsteps at the door gradually approached, and a young man with an arrogant figure and an unshaven beard strode over, wearing a blue shorts and carrying a weapon wrapped in a cloth strip.

Wang Xiu sat on his shoulders, hugged his elder brother's head tightly with his little hands, and smiled broadly.

The unshaven young man was originally smiling, but when he suddenly saw three strangers under the patio, his steps stopped and the smile disappeared.

He looked at Zhang Yuanqing and others and looked at his mother:

"Mom, are there guests at home?"

The aunt snorted coldly and then said angrily:

"What guests? These are your cousins."

The unshaven young man was stunned on the spot and said in a daze: "Cousin? My father and I are both single children, and the first and second uncles have sons. Where did I get my cousin? This is not my cousin."

The aunt was also stunned. At this moment, there was a conflict between cognition and memory, and her brain was in chaos. She murmured: "My eldest brother gave birth to all sons, all sons?"

Seeing this, the unshaven young man's expression became more and more serious. He took two steps back. Wang Xiu put down his shoulders and reached back to hold the weapon wrapped in cloth.

The queen immediately tensed up.

Jiang Jingwei raised his face, arched his back, and made a gesture of getting ready to go.

Although she didn't understand the situation, the fire master's combat intuition was very keen and she had already sensed the hostility of the civilian youth.

He was able to sense something was wrong in his mother's confused moment, instead of continuing to ask questions. He knew to put down his sister before the battle. He felt that he was not a fire master. If he was not a fire master, he would still have a chance. Zhang Yuanqing's heart moved, and he put his right hand on his back, where the queen could see In his field of vision, he pointed at his aunt.

This was a sign that she was taking hostages.

The queen understood and quietly moved closer to her aunt who was in a state of confusion.

Zhang Yuanqing and Jiang Jingwei stepped forward and stood between the two sides.

Sure enough, the expression of the unshaven young man became extremely solemn, but the hand holding the weapon did not move for a long time.

He glanced sharply at the unfamiliar man and two women, then lowered his head and said to his sister: "Xiu'er, go to the door to see if the old man is back."

The young Wang Xiu couldn't understand the tense atmosphere, so he said "hmm" obediently and ran out on his short legs.

When his sister's figure crossed the threshold and disappeared, the young man retracted his hand, no longer gripped the weapon, laughed and said: "It turns out that my cousin is here. Cousin, can you lend me a step to speak."

His eyes were fixed on Zhang Yuanqing, as if he was determined to defeat me.

Zhang Yuanqing understood his emotions and immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He did not choose to attack forcefully, which meant that the other party was not sure of saving his mother, which ruled out the possibility of being a saint.

The saint's words would kill three people on the spot in an instant.

Zhang Yuanqing smiled and said: "No, just let Aunt go back to the house."

It is impossible to speak by taking a step. If the other party suddenly rises up and captures him, it will be a hostage against a hostage.

The queen understood and smiled: "Aunt, you don't seem to be feeling well. I'll help you go back to the house to rest. Don't be like your cousin."

After the aunt heard her son admitting his identity as "cousin," the conflict between cognition and memory disappeared. She raised her forehead and said, "Why did you suddenly feel dizzy? Humph, I was in a bad mood when I saw your cousin." ."

With the support of the Queen, he entered the main house.

The young man glanced at the closed door and tried to walk into the patio. As soon as he took a step, Zhang Yuanqing said:

"Cousin, stand there and don't move."

The young man stopped helplessly and said in a deep voice: "Which path are you from? Tell me what you want directly. Make an agreement first. Life will not be given. If you are here for revenge, then you can take action."

Zhang Yuanqing said: "Now draw your sword and kill yourself."

The young man sneered: "In this case, then I can only be a motherless woman."

"What craft did you learn?"

"kill!"

"Knife or sword."

"Use a sword!"

"Who is the master?"

"There is no master."

"How can you learn without a master?"

"Rough self-taught skills."

"From the Qinglong Gang?"

"Yes!"

"What position?"

"The thug."

The two of them were talking very fast across the patio. Zhang Yuanqing seemed to deliberately not give the other party time to think. He asked questions very quickly, and the other party also answered quickly, blurting out without thinking at all.

Each other's eyes were fixed on each other.

"Throw away the sword!" Zhang Yuanqing said.

The unshaven young man took off the sword from his back and dropped it at his feet.

"Kick him away." Zhang Yuanqing ordered.

The young man kicked the sword several feet away.

Zhang Yuanqing's expression relaxed and he said with a smile: "I'm passing through the precious land. I don't have any ill intentions. I just want to stay here for two days."

The youth did not speak.

Zhang Yuanqing took Jiang Jingwei forward three steps, stopped, reached into his arms and said, "If you don't believe me, let me show you something." The young man still did not speak.

Zhang Yuanqing took out a golden pocket watch from his arms, pointed it at the young man, and snapped it open.

The young man who was concentrating on his right hand in case it was a hidden weapon could not help but stare at the pocket watch and the dial.

As the second hand moved, the young man's eyes suddenly straightened, his pupils became dilated, and he stood frozen on the spot.

Zhang Yuanqing whispered: "I am your cousin Li Erdan, she is your cousin Li Erya, and the person in the room is your eldest cousin Li Daya."

After repeating it three times like brainwashing, the young man muttered to himself with a dull expression: "You are my cousin Li Erdan, she is my cousin Li Erya, and the person in the house is my eldest cousin Li Daya."

Zhang Yuanqing closed the watch cover with relief. With a click, the young man's whole body was aroused, and his empty eyes regained their aura.

Then he saw Zhang Yuanqing and Jiang Jingwei very close at hand. The young man was stunned for a moment, then his face lit up and he smiled boldly:
"Cousin, long time no see. Why are you here in the capital?"

Zhang Yuanqing sighed, touched Jiang Jingwei's head, and said: "The Northern Dynasty invaded and my parents died in the war. I could only take my two younger sisters to Beijing to join my uncle and aunt."

Knowing that the other party was a member of the Qinglong Gang, in order to cater to him, Zhang Yuanqing specially added: "The emperor is in power, the treacherous ministers do evil, the world is declining, and people's hearts are not the same as before."

When the young man heard this, he greatly agreed and said with gritted teeth: "Until the emperor dies, it will be difficult for the family and the country to prosper!"

Jiang Jingwei did not interrupt, but secretly admired: Yuanshi Tianzun knew a lot of idioms!
At this time, an angry voice came from the door: "You bastard, is this what you can say? If you don't want to live, don't bring trouble to the family."

It turned out that Uncle Wang was back, and Wang Xiu was following behind him.

The young man snorted and walked straight to his house without bowing his head to his father.

Uncle Wang stopped him with a "hey": "Your cousins ​​are staying there, go and make a floor in the main house."

The young man simply went to the kitchen, found a stack of fried beans, sat under the patio and ate them, chewing them loudly.

After Uncle Wang came back, his aunt came out of the house and went into the kitchen to make a fire to cook. Jiang Jingwei and the queen followed to join in the fun, one responsible for chopping vegetables and the other responsible for lighting the fire.

The three men were sitting under the patio chatting. After going back and forth, Zhang Yuanqing learned his cousin's name, which was Wang Beiwang.

Take the idea from the south and look north!

Every citizen of the Southern Dynasties has the dream of marching north to regain their homeland. In the real world where Zhang Yuanqing lived, the name "Beiwang" was as common as "Jianguo" and "Jiangjun", so the name Wang Beiwang, In fact, it doesn’t have much literary content.

Uncle Wang was very concerned about his cheap nephew. When he heard that his nephew had not found a job, he patted his chest and offered help.

Zhang Yuanqing thanked him and said, "I want to hang out with my cousin."

"What's wrong with living a few more years?" Wang Beiwang chewed the beans, handed over a handful, and said angrily: "You are weak and weak, and your limbs are weak. Erya is stronger than you. Let's raise him at home first."

As he said that, he took out three taels of silver from his pocket and said, "Num, take it."

Three taels of silver is a lot. In the prosperous capital of the Southern Dynasties, a strong coolie's monthly income was only one tael of silver.

"Thank you, cousin." Zhang Yuanqing accepted it with a smile, planning to stay at the bedside tomorrow.

I definitely can't stay here, but it's already dark, and there's a curfew outside. It's even more dangerous to go out. I can only stay for one night, and then go to Tianji Building to meet the Palace Master and the others tomorrow.

Uncle Wang chewed a few mouthfuls of beans, frowned, and showed a sad look on his dark face:
"I heard that Your Majesty is going to sacrifice three hundred boys and girls to heaven."

"Hunjun!" Wang Beiwang sneered: "It's best for him to hide in the palace forever. If he dares to go out of the palace to play, I will stab him to death."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw his cousin lift his buttocks and move the small bench far away.

"Cousin, why are you sitting so far away?"

"My cousin is too sharp, I'm afraid I'll be stabbed to death by you."

"Look." Uncle Wang said angrily: "Your cousin is reminding you not to talk too much. Sooner or later, you will die from such an unbridled mouth."

Wang Beiwang retorted: "Dad, you gave me this name because you wanted me to serve the country loyally."

"What does being brave and ruthless have to do with serving the country with loyalty?"

Wang Beiwang lowered his head and took a mouthful of beans, then changed the subject:

"Dad, don't worry. The boys and girls will probably be found from the villages outside the city. Xiu'er will be fine. I came back today to tell you that I will be out of the city for a few days and I don't know when I will be back."

Maybe not coming back.

Zhang Yuanqing immediately sensed the other party's strange emotions and hurriedly asked: "Cousin, why are you out of the city?"

"Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask." Wang Beiwang popped a bean into his mouth, not giving Zhang Yuanqing a chance to find out the information.

Not long after, Auntie, Jingwei and the Queen came out with two dishes each, and the three men left the patio carrying the bench and came into the hall.

Dinner was very simple, with four vegetarian dishes and only fish and bacon as meat dishes.

The family was not wealthy, but they could afford meat.

After dinner, the family dispersed around the dining table. The queen, Wang Xiu and aunt stayed to clear away the leftovers. Jiang Jingwei, who had lacked education in this area since childhood, followed Zhang Yuanqing into the house to sleep half full.

Zhang Yuanqing lay on the bed for a quarter of an hour, until the Queen opened the door and came in. After she closed the door, she said:

"Tomorrow is the last day. The second stage of danger may be concentrated tomorrow. Don't take it lightly. We will leave as soon as daybreak."

The queen nodded with deep understanding, "Today is very dangerous. Fortunately, Wang Beiwang's cultivation is not strong, otherwise the hypnotic props of the extraordinary realm may not be able to affect him."

The two of them had just chatted for a few words when they heard Jiang Jingwei's purring "ahu ahu".

Zhang Yuanqing took a medical pill, injected a tube of diluted life source liquid, and sighed: "Go to sleep, I really envy the fire master."

He huddled under the covers.

The queen blew out the oil lamp and the house fell into darkness.

I don't know how long it took, but Zhang Yuanqing suddenly felt a chill coming from the top of his head, as if someone had poured a bucket of cold water on him in the cold winter.

No, it didn't seem like it, but someone poured a bucket of cold water on it.

As he regained consciousness, he immediately felt that his limbs were weak and his body was weak. He groaned and opened his eyes.

He was still in the room, but not on the bed. Instead, his hands and feet were tied, and he was sitting on the ground against the wall. Next to him was Jiang Jingwei and the Queen, who were treated similarly.

A few meters away, Wang Beiwang stood up with his sword in hand, a wooden barrel leaning at his feet.

The unshaven man narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Where did you three come from?"
