Noble First Daughter-in-law

Chapter 1030 All Spent

"you--"

Although he was suddenly angry, his anger was not sudden. As the Khan of the Turks, he had experienced countless dangerous battles and difficulties, but being plotted against and almost dying in the underground tomb still made him extremely angry. Ashina Zhuye gritted his teeth, grabbed Zuo Zhen, and slammed him against the opposite wall, overturning the shrine candlesticks and other items on the ground.

With a loud bang, Zuo Zhen was almost smashed against the wall, and it seemed as if all the bones in his body were broken.

But he was not willing to show weakness. The next moment after he hit the wall, he immediately grabbed Ashina Zhuxie's wrist with his backhand, grabbed the opponent's shoulder with one hand, and kicked back at the same time, using the force to force Ashina Zhuxie back several steps!
Seeing this scene, everyone was shocked.

No one expected that this skinny Zuo Zhen would have such skills. Although Ashina Zhuye was fierce and good at fighting, his martial arts skills were obviously insufficient. However, he was not panicked. After retreating two steps, he grabbed Zuo Zhen's collar with both hands, stretched out his long arms, and lifted Zuo Zhen up.

"it is good!"

The other Turkic soldiers in the room just reacted and gathered around, and cheered loudly when they saw this scene.

In the Turkic empire, although the Khan was the lord, he was not high and mighty and out of reach. In times of war, he had to charge into battle like the soldiers. On weekdays, he also went riding, hunting and practicing martial arts with his subordinates. So when the soldiers saw Ashina Zhuye's skills, even if they had just returned from a near-death experience, they immediately regained their courage. Some of those who were still angry were ready to go forward and teach Zuo Zhen a lesson.

However, Zuo Zhen was obviously not an ordinary person. He was flipped into the air by Ashina Zhuxie, but he did not fall to the ground in embarrassment. Instead, he jumped and landed steadily behind Ashina Zhuxie. He quickly turned around and grabbed Ashina Zhuxie's wrist, pinched his other shoulder, and raised his leg to press his knee against his lower back.

This posture was actually using Ashina Zhuxie's own hands to strangle his neck!

Ashina Zhuxie was obviously inferior in terms of physical skills and martial arts, but he was strong, brave and aggressive. As the saying goes, force can defeat skill. He could absolutely crush the skinny Zuo Zhen with just his strength. He arched his back hard, dragged Zuo Zhen behind him, pressed him against his back, and grabbed his throat with his backhand!
The two of them just started to stalemate!
Just as the two men's faces became more and more ugly, and the surrounding Turkic soldiers came to their senses and were about to rush over to help, Shang Ruyi suddenly stood up and said, "Stop it!"

"..."

The two men didn't move, nor did they let go, but it was obvious that neither of them was exerting any more strength.

Lei Yu, who was sitting on the other side, finally caught her breath. She looked up at Shang Ruyi, then looked at Ashina Zhuye, and whispered, "Khan, the son of a rich family should not sit in the hall."

Hearing this, Ashina Zhuxie's hand trembled slightly, and then slowly loosened.

As soon as he let go, Zuo Zhen also let go of him.

Ashina Zhuxie took two steps back, and looked at Zuo Zhen with a calmer look - he really shouldn't have taken action, but should have let his men rush forward, no matter what others said, just chop Zuo Zhen into meat paste. But now he couldn't win, and he couldn't go on if Lei Yu opened his mouth again.

But the offense and anger of nearly getting killed cannot be easily suppressed or eliminated.

He said coldly: "You——"

Zuo Zhen didn't say anything, just glanced at him, and he was obviously very tired as he was panting. And it was not until this time that Shang Ruyi noticed that the beard on one side of his cheek had been completely burnt off, and there were several blisters on his cheek caused by the flames. The skin was broken during the fight just now, and blood was flowing down his charred beard and neck, looking very scary.

Of course, he wasn't the only one injured.

Even Shang Ruyi's body had traces of being burned by the flames, Wo Xue and the others also had wounds of varying sizes, and some other soldiers were wailing. Shang Ruyi stepped forward and said to Zuo Zhen, "You have lived here for a long time, you should have prepared some medicine for the wounds."

"..."

Zuo Zhen glanced at her, said nothing, and only raised his hand to point to the box at the end of the bed in the west room. Shang Ruyi winked at Wo Xue, and she immediately went over to open the box, and indeed saw some medicines, two sets of clothes, and a few books inside.

Zuo Zhen's days on Tianding Mountain were indeed poor and monotonous.

Wo Xue took out some medicine and treated the wounds of Shang Ruyi and the others. He also explained the situation to the guards outside and calmed their restless emotions. After everything was finally dealt with, the Turkic soldiers and guards left the cabin again, leaving only the people who had been there before.

The only thing missing is Wang Shaoqiu, and the sober Shang Ruyi is added.

She sat back on the bed, Lu Xiao sat at the foot of the bed, Wo Xue stood behind her to protect her, while Lei Yu and Ashina Zhuxie, who had always been with her, sat side by side in the main room, while Zuo Zhen sat in the corner on the other side.

Everyone had just returned from a near-death experience and were still a little frightened. No one was in the mood to speak, so the room was very quiet.

It was so quiet that even the sound of wind blowing through the pine forest outside could be heard clearly.

In the end, it was Shang Ruyi who spoke first.

She said, "Master Zuo Zhen."

"..."

The room fell into an indescribable, even suffocating silence again. After a long while, Zuo Zhen slowly raised his head as if he had found his soul floating in the air, but he did not respond to her.

Shang Ruyi asked, "Is it true that Zuo Gong's tomb can no longer be found?"

Everyone's somewhat scattered minds immediately tensed up again.

Although everyone down there was very depressed after hearing that Zuo Gong's Tomb was buried deep underground due to an earthquake more than ten years ago, because they had experienced life and death afterwards, no one had time to think about it.

Even if you think about it carefully, there is almost no way out.

Zuo Zhen looked at Shang Ruyi coldly, as if he was looking at an insatiable monster, but Shang Ruyi was very calm about his greed. He asked again: "You, after returning here, have you never looked for it again?"

Zuo Zhen said coldly: "No."

Shang Ruyi asked: "Why?"

"..."

"That's your father's tomb, and you have no intention of—"

Zuo Zhen interrupted her and said coldly, "Do you want to say that I have no intention of paying tribute to my father and am an unfilial son; or do you want to say that I have no attachment to the 'treasure' inside, which is very unusual."

Shang Ruyi didn't say anything, but silence is also a kind of answer.

Zuo Zhen sneered, "What if I say that I stayed here just to guard my father's tomb that disappeared in Tianding Mountain, and the treasure hidden in it has been spent long ago?"
