hermit meets king

He must also be avoiding Si Kou Guo's pursuit. If it wasn't for him, he wouldn't be in the dangerous situation now. The old man came to find him in the first place.Moreover, if the man in black hadn't saved him, he might have died by the river.

"I'll go out." Xu Taiyan said softly as he desperately endured the choking smoke.

"Don't move." The man in black embraced his body that was about to go out, "Wait a little longer." As he spoke, he took off the black cloth that had been covering his face before, and stretched out his hand to tie it on Xu Taiyan so that he would not Choked by the smoke, "Hold it a little longer."

Xu Taiyan raised his head and saw the face of the man in black for the first time. To his surprise, the man in black was not as mature as he imagined, he was just a boy of seventeen or eighteen years old.

His eyebrows are handsome, with the youthfulness and maturity of a teenager transitioning to adulthood.Coupled with golden eyes and swirls like the sun, people are a little stunned the moment they see it.

Xu Taiyan quickly lowered his head, the man in black was obviously handsome but he didn't dare to look up for a second time.He reached out and touched the black cloth tied to his face, as if he had the breath of a man in black.

It turned out that the man in black that I had been afraid of was just a boy not much older than me, but why was his ability so strong?

"Report, no." The search team searched around and still found no one.

"How is it possible? It's just such a big place. Could it be that it flew into the sky?" The old national teacher changed his usual calm and was a little annoyed. "Set it on fire!! If you don't, this land will be burned."

"Yes." The search team continued to look for it, and at the same time, a team had already started to set fire to it. The vegetation and trees all around were lit with flames. The fire spread quickly, and after a while, the entire valley was illuminated by flames. There were already wailing animal sounds everywhere.

The flames continued to spread and leap up.Even the red cliff of the cliff seemed to be on fire, scorching extremely hot.

Xu Taiyan was covered in sweat, some from being frightened before, and some now from the fire.

He looked up at the resolute and handsome face of the man in black, squinting his eyes and looking out, his golden eyes reflected by the fire.

I shouldn't implicate him. In the current situation, it is difficult to fly even with wings.Maybe after the national teacher caught him, he could find a chance to escape with the help of the ropes that came down.

The man in black felt the child staring at him, looked down, and saw the child's determined expression of wanting to die righteously.He moved the corner of his mouth towards him.

Xu Taiyan lowered his head and reached out to untie the black cloth that the man in black had tied around his face, and put it in his hand.

He didn't understand, the man in black moved the corner of his mouth just now, was it a smile or an encouragement?

But there was no time to think too much, I just lowered my head and said softly, "Next time, will you take me back to Haoyuan Kingdom?"

"it is good."

Xu Taiyan turned around and got out of the gap between the cliffs, bent his body and got out of the thorny hole, rushed out desperately, ran for a while, and coughed loudly.

The flames were soaring into the sky, and the smoke filled the air, and they were discovered immediately.

"Found it, catch him." Someone shouted, and Xu Taiyan was immediately surrounded by many people, and was detained back and forth.He was caught in front of the old national teacher.

"That's right, I just came out now." The old national teacher held a wet cloth in his hand and covered his nose. He looked at the scene of the surrounding fire, and saw that he looked like a well-behaved child who could run and endure. It seemed I really underestimated him before.

Xu Taiyan didn't speak, he looked extraordinarily thin and small being held by those tall horses.

He didn't struggle or get angry, just lowered his head, his long hair covered everything up, and the thin appearance of the young man looked pitiful and obedient.

The old master gave Xu Taiyan the wet cloth in his hand, but Xu Taiyan didn't pick it up, but just lowered his head, his waterfall-like black hair was loose, covering most of his face, revealing his extraordinarily fair and delicate chin.

The old national teacher sighed and said, "Then take it back."

A team of people escorted Xu Taiyan and the old master up the cliff. Although the old master was nearly half a century old, his skills were exceptionally flexible, which fit the appearance of a fairy.

The rest of the team also quickly climbed up the cliff and retreated quickly.

The last person in the retreating team did not realize the danger coming.

The man in black lurked silently behind him, covered his mouth, cut his throat instantly, dragged him to a hiding place, quickly changed his clothes, climbed up the rope, and disappeared into the night.

Xu Taiyan was escorted by a group of soldiers, pushing and shoving, and saw the Sikou Kingdom Palace in the distance.

The lights are brightly lit in the dark night, but in the eyes of the young man, it is like a ghost land, with endless darkness and powerlessness.

The old national teacher next to him looked at him and kept his head down. He looked like a cowardly child. He really didn't expect that he could run away.

half a month ago...

The prairie stretches as far as the eye can see, and the howling cold wind sweeps across the entire solitude.

Beside the icy cold river, a young boy was drenched all over, his forehead was bruised, and bright red blood dripped into his eyes along his hair. The distant river feels cold all over.

Why are you here?Mingshan collapsed, father emperor, mother queen.The boy lost his mind and fainted again.

Sikou Country is located in a bitterly cold border area, and when winter comes, the vegetation is withered and cold.

The old woman pushed open the door, and the cold wind invaded and filled the room in an instant.The woman hurriedly closed the door, wrapped her clothes and scarf tightly, and carried two buckets on her shoulders, intending to go to the river to fetch some water.

When I arrived at the river, I was about to fetch water, but I found a person lying not far away, who seemed to be a child, huddled into a small ball.How can you lie by the river in such a cold day?

The woman hurried over to have a look, and she was indeed a child, lying face down on the ground, but her clothes were too strange, so she should not be from Si Kou.

The woman hesitated, but seeing that the child was drenched and his hair was frozen, if he left it alone, he would definitely freeze to death.The woman stretched out her hand and tentatively pushed the boy, "Child? Child?"

But no response.

While thinking about saving a life and building a seven-level pagoda, the woman reached out and turned the child upside down.

When he saw the child's face, he cried out in fright, quickly pulled his hands away, and took a few steps back.

The woman quickly turned her face away, not even daring to look at it again, and murmured in a panic, "Sin! Sin! God of Holy Light bless you!"

The woman seemed to be afraid that she was blind and misread.He tremblingly took a look again, it was really three eyes!

The woman didn't even have time to take care of the bucket she was carrying when she came, and ran in a panic, saying indistinctly, "Sin, sin."

Not long after, under the leadership of the woman, a team of horse cavalry appeared beside the river again.

The leader got off his horse, stretched out his hand and turned the boy back, and suddenly saw that the boy had a third eye on his forehead.

The leader pulled his hands away in fright, and the cavalry around him also gasped, and took a few steps back in fright.

Although the woman had reported it before coming here, she still didn't believe it, and knew that no one in the world would dare to make such a big joke.Conflicting in my heart, I made some preparations.Seeing it now is another matter.

Fortunately, the child's face is now pale and his eyes are closed.Jiang Jie swallowed, and stretched out his hand to the boy's forehead, trying to break away from the boy's closed eyes to see if it was real or not.

The cavalry behind gasped again, not daring to make a sound, although they said they were soldiers of the royal family, they had never seen anything.It's not an exaggeration to say that this matter is heinous.

Jiang Jie found that his hands were trembling so badly that he couldn't use any strength at all, so he had to withdraw his hands and turned to the child's neck, where there was a beating pulse.Make sure the person is still alive.He told his subordinates, "Wrap it up and sneak back in secret."

"Yes." A group of cavalry bowed their heads and took orders.

"That general, can I go back?" The woman asked Jiang Jie.

"Well, don't worry, the royal family will reward you for your merit this time." Jiang Jie looked at the poor ordinary woman.

"Thank you sir, thank you sir." The woman knelt on the ground and thanked the general, never thinking that one day she would meet such a great man.

"However, you have to take something in exchange."

"Thank you, sir, what?" The woman knelt on the ground, still unaware of the danger behind her.

Jiang Jie glanced at the men behind the woman.

A silver scimitar pierced through the woman's chest in an instant, and bright red blood gushed out and fell to the ground, leaving only a trace.

In the royal family of Sikou Kingdom.

The leader waited anxiously, and when he heard the news that the spies had returned, it was true that a young man had a third eye between his foreheads.The leader was startled, and said sweatingly, "Three Tongyan, is it true that naivety is going to punish others?"

"Leader, don't worry, seeing is believing. After 500 years, how can there be three-way eyes inexplicably?"

A beautiful-looking woman in a black robe said.The holy light is dotted on the forehead of the woman, which is a symbol of the dignity of the position of Sikou Guoguoshi.

"Report, leader, the person has been brought back secretly."

"Let's go and have a look." The leader took the national teacher to go, and this matter must be resolved in secret.The sooner the better.

Si Kou Hongda couldn't really believe that one day he would see something that was only recorded in ancient books 500 years ago.

A teenager was lying on the bed with a pale face and a forehead band tied on his forehead.The clothes he was wearing were obviously not the costumes of the Sikou Kingdom, but the costumes of the Haoyuan Kingdom.Judging by his appearance, he really does not have the heroic and profound appearance unique to Sikou people.

Si Kou Hongda stretched out his hand to untie the forehead band on the young man's forehead, and suddenly saw the third eye closed on his forehead, which was so lifelike that it definitely didn't look like a fake.

Hesitatingly, the other hand reached out to the young man's forehead, and his fingers gently lifted the eyelids between the young man's foreheads, and the whites of the eyes were all there, just like ordinary people's eyes.

Even the eyeballs rolled around mischievously.

Si Kou Hongda was so frightened that his hands trembled and he quickly retracted it.There is such a ridiculous thing.Busily asked the national teacher behind him, "What should the national teacher do?"

"Boss, I think you should put him in the altar and sacrifice to heaven as soon as possible to make amends." Miao Kunyao looked at the boy on the bed, "We must not let him bring the disaster to Sikou Kingdom."

"When will it enter the furnace?" Si Kou Hongda asked.

"immediately……"
