Assassin 3 Wind and Live

Regardless of the real names of the two brothers, let us call the surviving one Zidui.

That year was a severe winter that was rare in ten years, and the two brothers Zidui and Ziyu were born during the coldest period.Liuli people have always believed that children born in winter are the smartest. As the only prince born in winter in this generation, with the support of his eminent family with outstanding military exploits, he was raised as a heir apparent since he was a child.

Because they are twins, Zidui and Ziyu are exactly the same in temperament and appearance, even the biological mother can't tell who is who, and the two will often take advantage of this to exchange identities and play servants for fun.

When the two brothers were seven years old, their grandmother, Mrs. Xinghefu, died of illness.Zidui was left in the palace because of the cold, and the concubine took Zidui out of the palace to attend the funeral of his grandmother.Mrs. Fu loved Zidui very much during her lifetime, and Zidui insisted on going out of the palace to see this loving grandmother for the last time, so the two repeated their old tricks and let Zidui hide under the carriage seat to sneak out of the palace.

Ziyu worshiped with the concubine first and then went to the inner courtyard. Zidui sneaked out of the carriage and swaggered into the funeral hall. Everyone thought it was Ziyu who had gone and returned, and found nothing unusual.Zidui naturally didn't want to hide in that cramped place and starve all day, so he planned to steal some snacks and find a yard with few people to pass the time.Everyone in the mansion was very busy that day, Zidui sent off the attendants who came up, saying that he wanted to go to the back house alone to find his mother and concubine, but no one stopped him.He sneaked into his grandfather's martial arts training ground. The huge martial arts training ground was empty at the time, and next to the training ground was the Cangbing Pavilion. It is said that many strange weapons captured by his grandfather on the battlefield were stored there. Boys are very fascinated by swords. Dui is no exception, the Tibetan Bingge is the place Zidui has always wanted to go but failed to go.The sadness of his grandmother's death was dispelled by curiosity, and Zidui sneaked in over the wall when no one was prepared.It was probably because there were too many visitors in the mansion that day, and the guards around the martial field were reduced a lot compared to the past. Zi Dui slipped in smoothly by taking advantage of his small stature.There was no one stationed in the martial field, and the gate of the Cangbing Pavilion was closed and locked.Zidui rolled his eyes, took off the skeined silver bracelet in his hand, removed a few silver threads, and brought in a flower pot, with his feet barely able to catch the lock.

With a "click", the lock fell to the ground, because none of the weapons stored here were valuables, and the locks on them were ordinary, so Zidui opened it without much effort.

Zidui gently removed the flower pot on the foot, walked into the door, and closed the door carefully.Faint light spilled into the inner room through the skylight, and the sharp blades in the room shone coldly.The bloody cold light did not frighten the young Zidui, but made him even more excited.Zidui lit an oil lamp and dangled around, somehow triggered the mechanism, a stone slab on the ground slowly moved to the two sides, revealing a narrow section of steps, extending into the darkness underground.Zidui hesitated for a while, the fear finally lost to the strong curiosity of the young child.He groped for the wall and descended the stairs in the dark.

In the long years since then, Zidui regretted countless times. If he had listened to his mother and concubine and stayed in the palace to recuperate that day, if he hadn't stepped into that forbidden place out of curiosity, his life would have been different.

Zidui woke up in his own palace, with thick gauze wrapped around his head, and Ziyu stood by his bed without blinking his eyes.The identical twins looked at each other as if they were looking in a mirror, but Zidui felt that they would never be the same again.

In that secret room that day, Zidui's last memory is a worn-out ancient sword that slowly slid out of the scabbard, making a piercing rustling sound, revealing the almost broken blade, hitting his head and falling. On the ground, it broke into two pieces, and then there was a mountain of blood and a sea of ​​blood.

Since then, Zidui has seen some strange scenes from time to time, just like daydreaming, but the content is real and terrifying.It seems that the memories that have been dusty for many years have been forcibly dug out from the bottom of my heart bit by bit.At that time, Zidui was only a seven-year-old child, unable to distinguish between true and false, but his memory was excellent, so all his memories of growing up were filled with bloody massacres, family betrayal, desperate escapes and deep-seated resentment.

At first he was terrified, more confused, he didn't understand where those fragments were coming from.Sometimes he was taking a bath with Ziyu, and the bath soup filled with the aroma of herbs suddenly turned into a pool of blood. Countless people in strange clothes were hacked and killed by another group of people. His head and face were covered with blood, and his eyes were filled with dark red blood, sinking slowly.He clearly didn't know these people before, but he felt full of sadness, panic and despair. He plunged into the water like crazy, trying to pull that illusory figure ashore, but was woken up by Zi Yu, the bath was still the same bath, Everything around him was as usual, only his whole body was as cold as falling into an ice cave.Zidui gradually became moody, seeing too many bloody scenes, and his temper became gloomy and severe.

Zidui really wanted to ask his grandfather what that sword was, and what were the terrifying scenes he saw, but since that day, the concubine never visited his mother's house again, and neither did Zidui. I have seen anyone from my grandfather's family.Until the grandfather and the two uncles died in battle, the concubine couldn't afford to be ill, and she couldn't afford to send her late father and elder brother for the last journey.

The two brothers lost the support of their mother, concubine and natal family, and gradually lost power.Hou Liuli fought frequently with Liuqiu, and after Liuli's defeat, he negotiated peace, and the price was to send a descendant prince as a proton.King Liuli listened to the concubine's instigation and wrote down Ziyu's name.Liuli and Liuqiu have been fighting for many years, and they may fight again at any time. At that time, Ziyu will become an abandoned son, and he will definitely die.Zidui thought he had more hope of survival than Ziyu, knowing that he couldn't persuade Ziyu, he directly drugged him and hid him under the bed, put on the prince's dress sent by the Ministry of Rites and set out on the road.Before leaving the door, he retreated by a strange coincidence, pulled Ziyu's hand out from the bed, bit off their fingers, and closed the wound together.This is the second spell he learned after sorting out those memory fragments. He didn't intend to use it on Ziyu, but those who practice spells attach great importance to karma, so naturally they can't just find someone. The behavior was done on behalf of Ziyu, and logically Ziyu must also give corresponding rewards, otherwise the cause and effect cycle, Ziyu may not have any good results as he wished, a simple technique, because of the bond of twins, has achieved unexpected results. As a result, from now on, he is no longer afraid of the backlash of any spells. As long as he operates properly, Ziyu will not have to worry about his life.

Under the envoy's urging, Zi Dui put Zi Yu's hand back under the bed, and said softly, "Zi Yu, don't blame me."

After Zidui arrived in Ryukyu, he was imprisoned in the Proton Mansion. Since then, he has been confined for several years. Except for the person who delivers food and water every day, and the two cats that occasionally sneak into the yard, he has never seen him again. any living thing.This is actually one of the purposes of his trip. The lonely and uninhabited house, without worrying about the day-to-day provocations of other princes and the peeping nails placed by all parties, is suitable for practicing those strange things that come to mind. spell.

Zidui put an old sword beside his pillow, it was the one in the underground secret room of the Cangbing Pavilion when he was young. At this moment, he could already recognize that it was one of the magical weapons in the legend of Liu Ren, and the sword that devoured moon.After growing up, the fear of childhood was no longer there. Looking at the broken blade, he only felt inexplicable sadness and resentment.

In the next few years, as long as he doesn't think that his life is still hanging on the blade, Zidui's life is still very comfortable.He even named the two cats he often visited, the fat white one named Fatty, and the thin black one named Heizi. Fatty and Heizi are his only playmates after practicing.

Zidui thought that he would spend the first half of his life in practice, and then devote the rest of his life to turning the Zhongyuan Continent upside down.He didn't know why he had such an idea, but he had an intuition that maybe this would calm the resentment in his heart.Of course, he might not be able to wait for that day. Maybe when Liuli and Liuqiu fought again, he was pushed to the front of the formation and beheaded on the spot, but this calm was broken in advance.When he was practicing one day, he suddenly felt a pain in his heart and fell into a coma. After waking up, he obtained hundreds of years of memory inheritance.It may be the memory of a certain sword-wielding ancestor, or it may be the memory of Yue Yue itself. He can't tell, but just like before, he can feel that what he saw really happened. The two kings of Zhongyuan were massacred, and the one who fled to Liuli survived was his ancestor.Knowing everything, the resentment in his heart became clearer and stronger, and he almost couldn't wait to go to Zhongyuan immediately.

Perhaps the two brothers had a good understanding. When Zidui was planning how to escape from Ryukyu, Ziyu was exiled due to the persecution of other princes and princesses, and went to Zhongyuan to study.Zidui and Ziyu began to exchange letters. Ziyu didn't know Zidui's plan, so he wrote down what he saw and heard in the Central Plains and sent it to Zidui. But he didn't want this move to plant the fire for Zhong Yuan's next battle.

One day, when Dui was sharing dinner with the fat man, Heizi came over, followed by a dirty child. The child was in a state of embarrassment, with a disheveled face and expensive clothes. Zi Dui knew his chance had come.

Zidui used a few simple spells to successfully arouse the child's interest. Since then, the child often came to play with him. From simple conversations, he learned that this is an unfavored prince who is often bullied by other princes. No matter how unfavored, the prince is always the prince, and the heir to the throne will always have a way to cause bloody storms.Not long after, other princes came to ask Zidui to perform "tricks".Zidui gradually attracted the attention of the Ryukyu royal family, and after a few days, people from Yinyangliao also came to him.Yinyangliao is like the Tianguan Office of Nakagaki back then, gathering the most famous alchemists in the country. Zidui claimed that after coming to Ryukyu, he was instructed by the gods to start practicing alchemy. The chief executive was regarded as the honored guest, and please seal the yin and yang as the young genus.Later, Zidui got acquainted with the princes' biological mothers and secretly provoked a battle for the throne. Several factions began to fight openly and secretly. Civil strife broke out in Ryukyu.

Not long after Ryukyu was destroyed, Zidui sensed Ziyu's death.The eldest prince who came to join Zidui thought that the two brothers had lost contact for many years. When he informed Ziyu of his death, he casually insulted the royal family. Hands and feet, even if he doesn't have the slightest interest in the throne, he doesn't want to let these bastards get what they want.

In order to confuse the gods, Zidui played the little game between the two brothers for the last time, and ascended the throne in the name of Ziyu. Fortunately, the people in the royal family got a little understanding of the eldest prince's temperament after seeing his tragic situation, and no one dared to provoke this prince easily. kill god.Zidui hated the royal family, but didn't want Liuli to be implicated, so he went to Zhongyuan alone with a few dead men.Knowing that Ziyu's death was not caused by Murong Li's efforts to preserve the Yaoguang Kingdom, his resentment towards the king reached its peak.There is a saying in Nakagaki, Ruthless is the emperor's family, the cold-blooded emperor who slaughtered his ancestors hundreds of years ago, the Liuli and Ryukyu royal families who killed each other for the throne, Murong Li who used his best friend and abandoned the alliance for Yaoguang He vowed that he would kill all the emperors in Zhongyuan or those who were ordered by the emperor's star, and cause chaos in Zhongyuan, in order to avenge the blood of his ancestors.

Now most of Zhongyuan is in the hands of Murong Li, and the lord of Tianquan is on good terms with him. Zidui knows that he is not an opponent, so he plans to find the tomb of the walking dead left by Yinluebu, so that his ancestors can kill the enemy with their own hands. Isn't it wonderful?So Zidui reforged Chuyue, intending to use the breath of the magic weapon to find the same family to obtain the specific location of the tomb.He first approached Feng Nai to attract the descendants of the Feng family from the Dong tribe, but that person was very vigilant and made him unable to do so. He happened to meet Chang Shi, who was also looking for Feng Nai, and learned that there was a surviving Dong Ming tribe. The branch has survived in Qisu so far, so it turned to Qisu.

Zidui was born in the emperor's family, and there is no place in the world where bloodlines are the most humble. But the moment he set foot on the land of Xunsu, he felt the power of the legendary bloodline for the first time.The moment he opened the curtain of the car, he saw a middle-aged woman with a graceful face standing quietly at the gate of the city, as if she knew that he would arrive at this time, and immediately walked towards him quickly after he got off the car.Zidui didn't know who this woman was, and he had never seen anyone with a face similar to hers, but the moment the two looked at each other, he felt a strange power rising from the bottom of his heart, his eyes were sore, Almost in tears, he unconsciously walked towards the woman. Seeing him like this, the woman quickened her pace and ran towards him. When she ran in front of her, Zidui realized that she was already in tears.Before the woman could say a word, she opened her arms and hugged him tightly, just like what her mother and concubine had done to him countless times when she was a child, that loving and warm embrace made the endless hatred in his heart suddenly calm down. stop water.

"You are..." The woman hugged him for a long time, then let go gently, wiped away her tears, and opened her mouth with a sob.

"Zidui...my name is Zidui." Zidui interrupted the woman.

The woman opened her mouth, and tears fell again. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and forced a smile: "My name is Lanti, and I am the new patriarch of the Dongming Mo clan. Our two families have been separated for too long... , I don’t know how to calculate seniority, you can call me aunt or sister...or just call me Lanti.”

Lan Ti could hardly cry, Zi Dui laughed, seeing that she was not like an aunt in age, so he called out: "Sister..."

"Wait a minute." The man in the fancy dress behind Lanti stepped forward and said, "Auntie, if he calls your sister, wouldn't he be a generation higher than this king, and call him Auntie."

Lan Ti laughed through tears, and looked at Zi Dui questioningly.

Zi Dui heard that the man called himself "My King", and immediately guessed that this was Wang Yuxiao, the old man. He still had something to ask for, so naturally he didn't dare to disobey the king's wishes, so he changed his words and said, "Auntie."

Thus, Zidui, who has been traveling alone for many years, has an aunt. The blood relationship between them that has been passed down from hundreds of years ago is so thin that it is almost negligible, but they recognized each other when they met for the first time.This is the blood relationship that he is familiar with. It is something that he has been thinking about in his dreams since the death of his mother and concubine and Ziyu's birth. He did not expect to find it in this foreign country.

Yu Xiao is the lord of the country and has the blood of the Dong Ming tribe. He was forced to retreat by the emperor of Zhongyuan. Zidui thought that if he could find the tomb of the walking corpse and use the magic weapon to drive the walking corpse to help Yu Xiao enter Zhongyuan, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds.Zidui soon found out that he was wrong. Yu Xiao was a truly benevolent gentleman. He hated war and killing in his bones. For this reason, he personally assassinated his brother.After he was defeated and left, he didn't resent Murong Li or Zhi Ming, but regretted that he didn't stop his brother's attempt to get involved in Zhongyuan in time, so that the lives of the people in both places were devastated.The Mo clan, who are also descendants of Dongming, is different from the resentment brought about by Zidui's memory inheritance from childhood to adulthood, probably because this vein escaped from Zhongyuan early and has multiplied in Qisu for several generations. Lanti, the head of the Dongming tribe, has no resentment towards Zhongyuan.

Zidui looked at the clansmen who were living carefree in Xunsu at this time, and couldn't bear to drag them into the flames of war, so he said goodbye and left.When Lan Ti heard that he was leaving, she might have guessed something and tried her best to persuade him to stay, but Zidui refused. He was afraid that if he stayed, the resentment in his heart would be gradually wiped away.

Zidui recorded all the alchemy in his memory in a notebook, put it on the table in his study, and quietly left without saying goodbye in the middle of a heavy rainy night.Walking to the border of Xunsu, just like what he saw when he came, Lanti seemed to have been waiting for a long time in a coir raincoat, and King Xunsu was still standing behind her.Zidui stepped forward quickly and saw that Lanti's robe was soaked by the rain that had seeped into the coir raincoat. He took off his robe and wanted to put it on her body, but was refused.

Lanti took out a package from her bosom, and opened it was the letter left by Zidui. She was almost soaked at this time, but the letter was not wet. Lanti threw the letter back to him, saying: "We leave You're not here for this."

"Auntie, I didn't mean that..."

"If you have the heart, teach them yourself."

Lanti didn't wait for Zidui's answer, knowing that she couldn't stop it, she told him two things, one is that Murong Li cannot be killed, he is also a relative, and the other is that no matter what the result is, he must come back, and all the people in the Dongming tribe will wait for him. He's back for a reunion.

Zidui held back his tears and turned around, and went to Zhongyuan without looking back. He secretly swore that if he was still alive after everything was over, he would definitely come back.

Zidui found Qiu Zhen and Qi Zhikan, who were said to have committed suicide with a magic weapon. Because Qiu Zhen did not die by using Yunzang, the corpse in the tomb was not his own, so Zidui could not drive him away, thinking that his own people made a mistake. Time was running out, so he used Yue Yue to manipulate Qi Zhikan's body, followed the breath of Chungou to find Zhong Kunyi who lived in seclusion in the mountains and formed an alliance with him.As for Zhong Kunyi's paranoid insistence on letting Murong Li die in the hands of Zhi Ming, Zidui agrees very much. Lan Ti said that Murong Li is a relative, but he disagrees. For him, relatives are not simply blood relatives. Those half-brothers are inferior to Fatty and Heizi, and that scheming cold-blooded emperor, even if he is related by blood, if he kills his real relatives, he must die!As the emperor of Nakagaki, he must die!

Zidui sent people to sneak into the Yaoguang palace to assassinate the envoy of Tianquan, intensifying the conflict between Tianquan and Yaoguang, and took Zhiming away after the attempt.He was a little tangled, Zhiming was Ziyu's best friend, if he killed him, would Ziyu blame him, so he decided to see what kind of person Ziyu fell in love with before making a decision.After some conversation, Zidui let go of the hesitation in his heart. Ruthless is the emperor's family. Since the emperor himself takes it for granted, then why does he have to save his life?

Afterwards, Meng Zhang broke into the battle, causing Zhong Kunyi's Tianshu army to retreat.While manipulating the walking corpses, Zidui felt that both spiritual and physical strength were gradually exhausted, so he simply used the power of Xingming to kill the lord to destroy all the walking corpses in one fell swoop, so that the resentful spirits would no longer be restrained by the corpses and run amok in Zhongyuan. The same can make this land uneasy.

After completing all this, Zidui's spiritual power has been exhausted, along with the monstrous hatred that has haunted him since childhood like a gangrene, as if those ghosts who died in vain finally got their wish , no longer entangled with him, at this moment he felt more relaxed than ever.Because the wounds on his body were not healed in time, he lost a lot of blood, and his whole body had no more strength. Zidui only felt that the earth was getting closer to him. Suddenly, his body was blocked by a pair of thin arms, and he tried to open his eyes. When he saw Lanti dressed as a soldier, he knew he was safe.

When Zidui woke up, the reinforcements from Xisu had already crossed the border of Zhongyuan. He could feel that he was on his way home, getting closer and closer to his strangers, and the crisp and melodious sound of the flute was lingering in his ears. , it was Randy, his aunt, who came to take him home in person.
