Three Five. Strangers

The sea water in winter is freezing cold, and it is pitch black as far as the eye can see.Tang Fei followed Ye Tianci in a daze, flailing his hands and feet indiscriminately, but felt that his body was as heavy as a lump of iron, unable to float no matter what.

Every few tens of feet he swam, Ye Tianci would find a place to take a breath, sometimes it was a deep groove on the rock wall, sometimes it was the roof of another forked road.And only at the moment when he surfaced, Tang Fei would feel that he was still alive.

In such an invisible and intangible environment, he quickly lost his sense of direction, and even his sense of time. It just felt like Ye Tianci was swimming slower and slower, and the time for each breath was getting shorter and shorter. longer.The cold sea water gradually took away the warmth and intuition of his hands and feet, and his mind became chaotic because of the boredom.There is nothing to rely on except the chains that are tightly stretched around the waist.

The feeling of suffocation gradually spread throughout the body, and a puff of stale air rushed back and forth in the lungs.He knew that he couldn't last long, but he didn't expect... Until the end, he was still his drag.

Tang Fei smiled wryly.

Following his smile, the cold and salty sea water rushed into his nose and nose, making his nasal cavity ache, but he also felt a strange sense of relief.With the last of his strength, the young man raised his head and glanced in Ye Tianci's direction, then groped to unlock the chain with his frozen fingertips.

His waist suddenly loosened, and he chased down heavily.It was pitch black all around, but he was no longer afraid.

I never knew before that the moment of death was so relieved and relaxed.

……

He remembered the day they first met, the young man in the golden robe was drenched in blood, stumbling along the Sansheng Road.There was a huge blood hole on his shoulder, which was roughly bound up with cloth - he recognized the wound, it was Tangmen's life-seeking arrow.

So he became a little curious about this person, and followed him into the Ping An Inn by accident.This man obviously had a pale face due to blood loss, but instead of going to the doctor, he ordered several jars of wine and gulped it down like water.

At that time... what did he say?

My partner doesn't want me anymore, why don't you come to be my partner, Ah Tang?

My name is Tang Fei, so he frowned.

Anyway, they are all surnamed Tang.In this way, even if you die, I don't have to change my words.

What a bastard, he thought.

Merry Young Master Ye, a seasoned veteran of sleeping flowers and sleeping willows, do you always look like this no matter who is by your side?

He also remembered that although this person was always smiling and unscrupulous, when he picked up the weapon, he seemed to be a different person, instantly becoming powerful and reliable.Also, he occasionally shows a fragile expression, obviously in the middle of a lively crowd, but it makes people feel very lonely, habitually curling the corners of his lips, his eyes are far away and he doesn't know where to look.

……

Someone hugged him, his arms firm and strong.The familiar soft lips covered his lips, and the long-lost air was brought in, carrying the elegant fragrance of that person, like grass warmed by the sun.

Ye Tianci hugged Tang Fei, floated up quickly, and finally rushed out of the water with a "crash".Tang Fei coughed violently and spit out a lot of saliva, while Ye Tianci patted him on the back lightly.

When Tang Fei finally regained his breath, Ye Tianci tied the chain around his waist again, lowered his face rarely, and said, "It's just nonsense!"

"I heard from my master before...several people swim in a string, if the people behind can't keep up...the people in front have to cut the rope, otherwise they will die together," Tang Fei said intermittently, "I don't want to Tired of you..."

"What nonsense!" Ye Tianci said angrily, "If you die—" He suddenly stopped talking, took a deep breath, and slowed down his tone, "I will take you out safely, trust me."

When the two finally swam out from the exit of the secret passage, Tang Fei felt as if they had passed away.The eyes that were used to the darkness were hurt by the sunlight, Ye Tianci stretched out his hands to cover his eyes, and led him to walk forward slowly.

Among the huge ruins, there were no treasure hunters who were digging around in the past few days, and it seemed extraordinarily quiet.Both of them were exhausted, so they randomly found a shelter from the wind and sat on the floor. After a moment of silence, Ye Tianci spoke softly, "My original name is Chen Huai'an, and I was the only one who survived the massacre of Miemen 19 years ago."

When Chen was destroyed in the Sui Dynasty, the ancestors of the Chen family were one of the members of the royal family of the Chen Kingdom in Xixia, Mrs. Xian who led the crowd to surrender to Yang Guang.Afterwards, Mrs. Xian was named Mrs. Qiao, and the Chen family followed the Sui army in various expeditions and made great military exploits. Therefore, they were invited into the palace to teach the princes the art of war.

Unexpectedly, the good times didn't last long. In the 14th year of the great cause, Yu Wenhuaji launched the "Jiangdu Change", Emperor Sui Yang died, and the sons of the Chen family desperately rescued his eldest grandson Yang Tan.Later, his younger brother Yang Yu became emperor in Luoyang, but was killed by Wang Shichong, and the Sui Dynasty perished since then.

The Chen and Yang families kept their names in hiding for many years and finally settled in Gusu.The so-called "Chen Family Treasure" is actually a part of the Great Sui State Treasury that has been guarded by the Chen family for generations.

"So that's how it is... If it is a country's treasury, then so much protection is not an exaggeration," Tang Fei muttered, but suddenly remembered something, "If the descendants of the Chen family back then were the current Gusu Chen family , then Yang Tong’s descendants, wouldn’t they be—”

"Long song gate."

At first, the son of the Chen family escorted Yang Tan to escape, and perhaps he still had some thoughts of returning to the country.However, after so many years, many small countries have risen and collapsed one by one, and the prosperous Tang Guotai Minan developed by the Li family in Longxi has gradually lost their minds.A hundred years later, only Yang's secret ancestral hall and the key to the treasury that Chen's handed down from generation to generation remain.The two families guard this common secret together. Every generation of the Chen family will send their children to the Yang family to grow up with the youngest son of the Yang family.

During Tang Wude's reign, Yang Zijing, head of the Tang family, invested in salt and iron water transportation with treasury resources, and eventually became a generation of wealthy merchants.Later, he built Xiangzhi Villa on one of the small islands in Qiandao Lake, and sent out invitations to invite literati and poets from all over the country to gather at the villa. The event was unprecedented, and this was the predecessor of Changgemen.Later, Yang Zijing funded the construction of Weishan Academy to recruit students, attracting a large number of scholars to come here.

Later, everyone worked together to create a unique set of martial arts, based on the Qimen Dunjia technique, supplemented by changes in the five elements and eight trigrams, and calculations of astrology and astrology, and deduced various formations, forming a school of its own, unique in the world.

"This is the origin of the Chen and Yang families. I am the youngest child of the Chen family. Because I am about the same age as Yang Xiaoning, the eldest son of the Yang family, I was sent to Changgemen to teach together since I was a child," like Remembering something from the past, Ye Tianci had a slight smile on his face, "Xianning is two years older than me, even though he is the master and I am the slave, he gives way to me everywhere.

"Later... when I was six years old, he accompanied me home, but it was a coincidence that he happened to meet with that massacre."

Ye Tianci took a deep breath, his tone was still steady, but Tang Fei could hear the suppressed anger and sadness in it: "Xiaoning protected me all the way to escape into the secret passage, destroying the entrance, but I was caught …Those people knew the secret that the descendant of the Chen family held the Sui arsenal, so they brutally tortured him to death…”

It's like history repeating itself. During the Jiangdu Incident more than 100 years ago, the eldest son of the Chen family used himself to replace the young King Yan to die; now in this catastrophe, the young eldest son of the Yang family changed his life to protect his friend.

"At that time, he was only an eight-year-old child!"

Ye Tianci clenched his fists tightly, his body trembling uncontrollably.

Under the skin of the playful and romantic young master Cangjian, there is always a nightmare called "Yang Xiaoning".

——That was the person he swore allegiance to and was determined to protect since he was a child, but in the end he could only watch him die in front of him, but he couldn't do anything.

Five days later, when the members of Changge's sect came to inquire and rescued him from the secret passage, the young master who used to fly away had completely changed. His eyes were dark and dark, full of deep hatred that did not match his age.

The Chen family has been exterminated, and he can't stay in the Changge family. Every plant, every tree, every brick and every tile is the shadow of Yang Xiaoning.In the end, the head of the sect ordered his younger brother Yang Bao to send him south to the Cangjian Villa, which is also a family of craftsmen.

He abandoned his former surname and first name, full of hostility, withdrawn and vigilant, and only one purpose left in his whole life, which is to become stronger.

Chen's Facing Wind Saber Technique, Changgemen Formation Technique, Mountain Dwelling Sword Intent and Water-Winning Jue... He practiced them all one by one, and he didn't dare to waste even a moment in the severe cold and scorching heat.He is the most assiduous disciple of the new generation of Cangjian Villa. No one knows why this well-clothed young master has such a strong obsession with martial arts. It seems that only in this way can he fill the hatred and fear deep in his heart .

"Ye Tianci, this is the name my master gave me. It means that every day I live now is a gift from God."

It was indeed a gift from God, which not only allowed him to survive, but also allowed him to find out the enemy by following the clues. The shivering child in the secret passage 19 years ago, the handsome young man in the brocade robe and epee 19 years later, and the pair of peach blossoms looking forward and looking forward to mercy, are all as sharp as a knife and chilling.

"The news about the treasure of the Chen family was released on purpose by me, just to attract people. It's a pity that one of the five families is still alive," Ye Tianci turned his head abruptly, staring at Tang Fei's eyes, "Once Tang Sect's 'Ghost Hand Son', now Evil Man's Valley's 'Extreme Dao Demon Lord' - also your master, Tang Ruhui."

Tang Fei took a deep breath: "Impossible!"

"This is the result of my investigation for 19 years. Besides, I still remember that at that time, the person who killed Xiao Ning had six fingers on his right hand." Ye Tianci raised the corners of his lips slightly, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes. "The Changge Gate has always been mysterious, and it is extremely difficult for outsiders to approach, so although he asked you to monitor me, he didn't know my origin with the Chen family. So Ah Tang, I approached you on purpose...even until Gusu and his party, I still want to kill you."

Tang Fei bit his lower lip hard: "So, later on, you didn't want to hurt me, so you drove me away on purpose?"

"Yes, what you said was right when we were in the secret path just now, I really like you," Ye Tianci sighed softly, "A Tang, I like you like that... that way..."

The white and bleak sunlight in winter shines on people's bodies without any warm feeling.Tang Fei sat there blankly, staring at Ye Tianci in a daze, unable to utter a word.

"I've told you all the truth you want to know. Whether you kill me now or go back and tell your master my identity, I have no complaints," Ye Tianci gently let go of Tang Fei's hand, " But if you want me to give up revenge, it is absolutely impossible——Tang Ruhui, I must kill, no matter what the price is."

He gently pressed the last kiss on the young man's lips, and finally turned and left without looking back.
