devil may cry

Chapter 67. Son

There are many customs in the ancient Shu Kingdom that are different from those in the Central Plains, such as the custom about this jade plaque.

The last time I quarreled with Xue Luoqian at the Lingnan station, Bei Mingyan said that he would marry Xue Tianlai, and even gave her the jade token.

This statement is true, but when Bei Mingyan gave her the jade token, it was not its true purpose.

This jade card was made for him by his elders when he was born, and has been with him for 25 years.

Men in ancient Shu, if they want to promise someone a lifetime, they will give the jade plaque to him, and ask him to take it and divide it into two parts, re-carve it, and make a pair of concentric small pendants.

Women do not have this custom, otherwise it is a crime of adultery.

This jade card was given to Xue Tianlai, he was worried that Xue Yaoshan would embarrass her, since he had nothing else to prove his identity except it.

This jade tablet is not just for this function, its real big function is where its value lies.

But since he has decided to leave Beishan, he doesn't care about these things, just because it is the only personal thing his parents left him, and it is worth taking with him.

Looking at it, Bei Mingyan suddenly thought, could it be that Xue Luoqian also knew its meaning?

What he said that day was just blurted out, and this was originally an ancient Shu custom, and most people in the Central Plains didn't know about it. He never thought that Xue Luoqian knew about it.

Now that I think about it, I regret it.

Really shouldn't have said that.

Seeing that he bowed his head and said nothing, Ji Chaoxing was a little dissatisfied: "Can't you tell?"

"No," the palm touched the warmth of jade, and Bei Mingyan looked at it firmly: "...I like everything about him, and I am willing to do anything for him."

"Tch, perfunctory, who wouldn't say such a thing?" Although Ji Chaoxing said so, his face was stained pink: "Don't say it, you wait for him to come out, and talk to him."

"En," Bei Mingyan slowly clenched Yu.

"Okay, okay, go to sleep!"

The sign of Xichang made the two of them have a smooth journey. Liu Yu entered the door, the guard saluted and then retreated. He hurriedly made way for the gentleman who was behind him to go first.

The gentleman gave him a funny look: "What is the Duke doing?"

Liu Yu smiled all over his face: "It's just a last resort, please sir."

Who knew what was wrong with this flattery, Mr.'s eyes immediately turned cold: "Leave as soon as I let you go, lead the way."

Liu Yu thought to himself that his temper was as rumored, it was really weird, and continued to open the way.

Walking all the way to the depths, stopped in front of a cell door in a secluded place: "Sir, this is it."

The gentleman did not speak, and Liu Yu looked into the darkness: "President Xue? Are you resting?"

In the darkness, a pair of bright eyes slowly opened, allowing people to roughly guess his position.

Liu Yu said with a smile: "Why don't you light the lamp for Leader Xue?"

"Pfft——" there was a small voice, and the candlelight was lit in the cell. Xue Luoqian put away his hands and looked at them expressionlessly.

This cell looks more refined and clean than other people's. There is a simple bed, a table, and other miscellaneous things. There are several plates of meals on the table, including vegetables, meat, and soup. Looks pretty good.

Xue Luoqian was sitting cross-legged on the bed, as if practicing martial arts.

This face has a bit of Xue Luosi's look, especially the aloof and dismissive expression. Xue Luosi is just like this. He is usually like a lunatic and is familiar with everyone, but when he looks down on someone , is exactly the same as Xue Luoqian.

With Mr. still beside him, Liu Yu suppressed his anger and continued to smile kindly, his slightly pale face distorted: "Mr. The food, I haven’t touched much... is the prison food of the six doors not to the leader’s liking?”

He babbled a lot, but got no response, and Xue Luoqian didn't even look at him.

Liu Yu was even more annoyed, and realized that Xue Luoqian was looking at the person beside him.

And so is Mr.

Suddenly, Mr. said: "Go out."

Of course he was talking about him, Liu Yu was embarrassed for a moment, but recovered quickly, nodded and left.

Before leaving, he looked into the prison again, Xue Luoqian did not look at him from the beginning to the end, nor did he show any curiosity about the arrival of his husband, let alone other emotions.

This kid is more difficult to deal with than his father, this time we must seize this opportunity, he will use the hands of Jade Blood Sect to get rid of Xue Luoqian!

After people left, Mr. was the first to speak. He smiled: "Your Excellency is not surprised at all."

Xue Luoqian didn't answer.

"Hehe," the gentleman took off half of the mask, and after showing his face, he finally saw a trace of emotion on Xue Luoqian's unchanging face.

"It's you."

"That's right," nodded approvingly, "I know the leader has suspected me a long time ago, but he won't doubt me for no reason. Can you tell me who called the leader?"

Xue Luoqian didn't answer, but said flatly: "Go away."

"Tsk, how ruthless, knowing that you have lost Fengshan, I have traveled thousands of miles to give the sword to the leader."

He threw Devil May Cry in, and the scarlet sword fell beside Xue Luoqian's bed, Xue Luoqian didn't even look at it: "If you really want to, it's better to return it to Fengshan."

"This sword is called Devil May Cry, the number one divine sword in the world, and it just matches the number one leader in the world."

Xue Luoqian looked at Devil May Cry, the crimson sword light was dazzling.

"What exactly do you want?"

The husband smiled: "It's you who are so straightforward. I want it, Chairman Xue, your treasure."

Xue Luoqian didn't change his face: "Fengshan is already in your hands."

"Haha, Ming people don't speak dark words, my lord," the gentleman blinked and leaned against the wall beside him: "You know who I'm talking about..."

Suddenly a red light appeared in front of his eyes, and in the blink of an eye, Xue Luoqian had drawn his sword across his neck, blood oozing from the skin.

"you dare."

"Quick, quick, a good horse with a good saddle," the gentleman clapped his hands and smiled disapprovingly, "How can the six doors trap the leader? Your lord just doesn't want to escape."

Xue Luoqian threw the sword out, sat back on the bed, and closed his eyes.

"I don't dare to dare, isn't President Xue the final say?"

"Master Xue uses this sword, who in the world will compete with him?" The gentleman said slowly: "Or does the leader want to use this cracked sword to protect the people he cherishes?"

He took out the Mu Chen Sword from the jailer again, and tapped the blade lightly with his fingers: "The leader's martial arts is undeniably strong, but without the blessing of the divine sword, you will always meet your opponent."

"At that time, you will see him, dead before you."

After he finished this sentence, he stopped talking, threw Devil May Cry in again, took Mu Chen and left, and Xue Luoqian didn't open his eyes until he completely lost his voice.

He looked at Devil May Cry, thinking about the battle with Xunyou a few days ago.

It was the first time he met a strong opponent after losing Fengshan. It is undeniable that he fought very hard. Although his grandfather said afterwards that Monk Xunyou was a very strong opponent, he also knew that his grandfather was definitely not comforting him. However, in the arena, a good weapon is really important.

For example, Shen Mujing's Shi Jing is said to have gone to the fairy mountain one year, and a fairy said that she had a destiny with this sword, so he gave it to her.

Her martial arts are not considered high-strength or low-level, just mediocre, but because of her sword ranking is very high, she is humane. In the tomb of many gods in the outside world, Shen Mujing is the master of time mirror.

As for whether the master is worthy of a famous sword, that's another matter.

When using Fengshan, he was indeed like a fish in water, he didn't follow his father's instruction to seal the sword at the beginning, so he was more or less selfish.

He hoped to protect that person, so he never slacked off all these years, relying on talent, hard work, and Fengshan Excalibur, he became the leader of the martial arts alliance at the age of 21.

He also hoped that that scene would never happen again, where the weak figure stood in front of the fierce enemy, but he stood by and remained indifferent.

Mu Chen really couldn't use it anymore. The reason why the battle of Xunyou was so difficult was because he didn't dare to use it too much. Even so, it couldn't last long.

However, Fengshan and Devil May Cry are two cursed swords, which can destroy people's blood, invert their minds, go crazy, and be taboo in the world.

Xue Luoqian looked at the sword, which seemed to have magical powers, emitting a crimson light.

At the same time, the gentleman who walked out of the prison flicked Mu Chen's blade with his finger, and the blade shattered.

He looked at the sword like a piece of rubbish, he threw it aside casually, and told the jailer, "Throw it away."

Ji Chaoxing followed Beimingyan twelve hours a day, except for bathing and other things, and even so, he would guard in the outer room, calling Beimingyan twice from time to time.

Bei Mingyan had no choice but to fly a secret letter while taking a bath, and squatted in the bucket wrapped in clothes.

Not long after, someone knocked lightly on the window twice.

Bei Mingyan said: "Yes."

Immediately, the window was opened a crack, Bei Mingyan put the prepared note on it, and was immediately taken away.

The two men in black looked outside the door and looked at each other with suspicion in their eyes.

Bei Mingyan waited for a while, but there was no response, and he simply opened the window: "It's me."

The two people were stunned, and took advantage of the moonlight to see his face clearly. They were clearly two strong men, but their eyes were wide open, and they hurriedly knelt down to Bei Mingyan: "...Young Master!!"

Shocked.

Bei Mingyan threw the jade plaque with his name engraved on it to one of them: "Send everyone to investigate this matter."

"Yes!"

"Before this time tomorrow."

"Yes!"

"Also, pick a few people to do something... Go to Beishan to have a look."

These are the secret guards directly belonging to him, so he naturally knew what he meant by "going up to Beishan to have a look", so he must have a look at the tomb.

Bei Mingyan waved his hand and lowered the window.

Qiaji Chaoxing didn't hear his voice, so he called him, and happened to answer.

"Why are you in a daze, you..."

Anyway, these days Beimingyan is neurotic, often in a daze, and Ji Chaoxing is not surprised.

The two men in black who left quickly sprinted on the deserted street, and one of them said, "My lord... are you coming back?"

The other shook his head and said: "I don't know, but he used this jade token, and if he wants to get rid of it... I'm afraid it will be difficult."

"Ugh……"

"Stop moaning and sighing, we will try our best to do what the young master ordered, and it will not be in vain for the young master's kindness of rebuilding."

"That's right... I thought that I would never be able to repay the young master's love in this life..."
