Hunting Heart Little Mengxian: Rebirth and Raising a Wolf

Chapter 73 Immortal City (2)

Although the incomplete records of the "Immortal City" were indeed inscribed on the piece of oracle bone fragments by the ancients, but, then, who can be sure that there are only a few words in it that can be read at present, and there is Did the untranslated ones actually exist, or were they imagined?
If it wasn't for the sake of saving his own life, Jiu Xiaohan wouldn't have brought up all these things without warning.

"It doesn't matter! My lord, I will make a long-term plan!" Huangfu An thoughtfully, pointing to the front, "Walking through this narrow alley, we will be there!"

"Passed by..." Jiu Xiaohan's heart tightened again, "Where will I go...?"

"Don't say too much! When it's time, you'll know!"

"Yes!" Jiu Xiaohan stopped talking, and continued to follow behind Huangfu'an silently.

At this time, in the underground palace, only the rustling sounds of clothes corners rubbing against the rock wall and shoe soles rubbing against the bottom of the cave are left...

One after the other, the two of them each have their own concerns.

Huangfu'an mentioned to Jiu Xiaohan the myth and legend that sounded like "chasing after wind and shadow" at first, and it was hard to let go of it for a long time.

He was thinking: If, with his own power, he could really build such a rumored "underground fairy city" in the huge tomb of Emperor Boa.There is no imperial power, no secular disputes, no flames of war, no disasters and sufferings.All living beings are equal, pastoral... What a wonderful world that would be!
If, with this pure land, there will be no one with the same opportunity as him, since he was young, he has been thinking about it every day and night, and he is afraid that because his elder brother suspects that there is a plot to seize the heir Heart, and had to pretend to be sick all the year round, long-term cure, like a "consumptive ghost" whose internal organs are about to rot, living like a human being, without any joy.

In order to make compromises and save his life, Huangfu'an did use all kinds of tricks to avoid the risk that his elder brother might suddenly kill him at any time—so, at this point, it seems that Jiu Xiaohan just now The change of attitude towards him, from being uncooperative to flattering, is somewhat similar to him.That's why he treated Jiu Xiaohan a little differently.

Huangfu'an could have kept Jiu Xiaohan in that death row prison; however, he didn't do that.He kind of likes this Jiu Xiaohan who can follow the trend.In particular, this eccentric little Xiu'er is always able to say things he has never heard of, which always makes him feel a sense of surprise, as if he is in the depths of this underground palace. Like a night pearl that can help him illuminate a dark corner.

For a long time, Huangfu'an had always been helpless because he was obviously the third child, but since he was born, he has been favored by his father who lives in the frontier fortress and the city lord of Yi'an County. There are so many heirs, and there are nine children in all.Which one is the father's favorite is not good, so he has to beg for nothing to spoil himself, can't he?
Even, Huangfu'an had doubts from time to time, and even had a certain illusion that the other eight brothers and sisters seemed not to be born of his father.

It is said that the dragon has nine sons, and the sons are different.What's more, ordinary people!

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Zhuo, the eldest brother who was born as the same direct relative as Huangfu An, is narrow-minded and jealous. His relationship with the seven siblings below him is very tense, and the one he dislikes the most is his third younger brother Huangfu An.On the contrary, the only one who likes the last concubine is Huangfu Yi, the ninth younger brother.

In Huangfu'an's view, the ninth younger brother and the eldest brother have the biggest age difference, and they are born of concubines, so their status is humble, let alone their father's love.Therefore, relatively speaking, the ninth brother's threat to the eldest brother's right to inherit the throne is the least.Even, the elder brother intends to gradually train the ninth younger brother to be his ally.

Especially, that time when I was a child, when I was about six or seven years old, Huangfu An followed his elder brother Huangfu Zhuo and their father came here to hunt here.

Because of accidentally falling into the trap that the elder brother had set up in advance, after Huangfuan fell unconscious and woke up, he accidentally came to this secret place of the valley for the first time...

Twenty years ago, Huangfu'an was still an ignorant teenager, but he had to walk on eggshells all the time and be cautious.

However, even if he was unwilling, he would still be forced to be involved in the invisible flames of endless power struggles.It is said that it is easy to hide a sharp spear, but it is difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.

Originally, he just thought that he accidentally fell into the animal trap set up by a certain farm hunter because he was accidentally knocked off his front hoof by his little beloved horse.However, before he fell unconscious, when he looked up subconsciously, he saw a very familiar figure in his eyes in a daze. Stretch out your little hand, trying to ask for help from the figure above...

Unexpectedly, the man didn't have any compassion for him, just stared coldly, looking down at his third younger brother who was in deep trouble and was almost dying.There was a strong dose of joy and pride on the corner of the man's mouth, as if he was congratulating himself on his victory in advance.

Immediately afterwards, dead leaves, broken branches and snow were continuously scattered on Huangfu'an's head.

The man had already ordered his two most trusted entourages to immediately cover the top of the trap with thick dry branches wrapped in ice and snow... until the person who fell at the bottom of the pit Huangfu'an slowly closed his eyes until, with his small body, he could no longer see even a ray of light above the rounded corner.

Huangfu'an also didn't know how he came to the door of Emperor Anaconda's tomb at that time.Perhaps, like Jiu Xiaohan 20 years later, he happened to catch up with the ground fissure.

When he woke up, still dying, he found himself leaning against the huge rock door of Emperor Bona's tomb.He didn't know what time it was, and he couldn't even be sure whether he was alive or dead in his current state.

In a trance, he actually saw the female anaconda giving birth to her cubs in the nest in front of the tomb from a distance.

That female anaconda has given birth to seven or eight babies.Those young boa constrictors wrapped in mucus membranes are like babies who are about to break through their mother's amniotic fluid.However, their mother looked extremely weak, and her whole body was wet and sticky.Its eyes were slightly closed, and it panted heavily from time to time, as if its physical strength was about to be exhausted and its life was not long.

However, Huangfu'an, who was seriously injured, saw that the female boa's belly was still bulging, and her distracted eyes slowly moved to his side, as if asking him for help.

Huangfu'an actually felt that his sympathy was summoned by the rapid and heavy panting of the female boa.He could almost hear it telling himself that it was at stake.

It seemed to be a moment of effort, Huangfu An's whole body became much more energetic, and he said in his heart, if he was still alive at that moment, it would probably be what the elders called "returning to the light".

I don't know where my bravery and courage come from. Huangfu Yi struggled to get up, and limped towards the female anaconda with one foot deep and the other shallow, even forgetting the pain of his fall...

Huangfu'an, who was less than six years old, had personally seen the mother who was the wife of the city lord. Not long ago, when her sister Huangfu'an was born, she had bad luck and died of dystocia.

Therefore, seeing the female boa in pain and dying, Huangfuan thought of his deceased biological mother with empathy. Legs, to help the female anaconda fetch water from the nearest hot spring for her to drink.He also used his own clothes to help it wipe off the sticky sweat on its head and face.

That was also the only time Huangfu'an saw that the seemingly cold-blooded monster actually shed tears.

After waiting for the female boa to give birth to all the remaining cubs in the belly and regain some strength, it let Huangfu sit on her head and neck and carried him out of the crack in the valley.

Huangfu'an didn't know how he closed his eyes when he fell asleep during the flight.All along, I have only heard that some people will suffer from seasickness and horsesickness. Who would have thought that there would be people who would ride an anaconda and get dizzy on an anaconda?
However, when he was found under a thousand-year-old tree by the people sent by his father Huangfu Ruozhou to find him, it was already three days and three nights later.

However, for Huangfu'an, it seemed like a lifetime away.

Huangfu Ruozhou had always doted on his third son, whom he held in his palm for fear of losing it and holding it in his mouth for fear of melting, but this time, when he lost it and found it again, it was even more sorrowful and happy, and he cared for him twice as much. .

However, Huangfu'an never told his father about being assassinated by his elder brother and falling into a trap.However, this does not mean that Huangfu Ruozhou himself will not secretly investigate the cause of the accident.

Of course, at the same time, with the lessons learned from the past, Huangfu An simply "transformed" himself into a "waste" with old leg and foot injuries that could not heal for a long time.Moreover, he would often pretend to be sick, pretending to be sick, in other words, he was really sick...

After many times of diagnosis and treatment by the head of the Nine Worlds Hall, in the end, apart from the leg problem of always limping when walking, Huangfu An still suffered from a "hysteria" that seemed to be due to that "accident" accident, which was hard to get rid of. .

This hysteria is strange to say the least, it doesn't happen easily, once he sees his elder brother Huangfu Zhuo, he will definitely fall ill.Either foaming at the mouth, twitching limbs, rolling eyes and fainting, or talking nonsense, insane, and hiding around, Huangfu An's acquired acting skills of pretending to be ill, which he has acquired continuously, is comparable to the most popular chief oiran in Nayi'an County , but also versatile!
The place where Huangfuan hides most often is in this valley and deep forest.As long as he got lost, it happened from time to time that Huangfu Ruozhou could not see others for ten and a half months.However, Huangfu Ruozhou would send dead servants to look for him every time.

However, this time when Jiu Xiaohan caught up, Huangfu'an had been missing for more than three months.Only then did I remember that Huangfu Ruozhou had no choice but to offer a high reward to capable people and strangers to help find them together.

In fact, Huangfu'an just took advantage of his illness to visit and accompany the female anaconda during the annual breeding season.The female anaconda always remembers his goodness, and sometimes prepares rare and rare treasures that came out of nowhere and presents them to Huangfu'an in return.It was precisely because of this that Huangfuan gradually fell in love with those good things.What has always made him feel extremely gratified is that the female boa is actually a "good" evildoer who knows how to repay her kindness and understand human speech.

Let me ask, who is more sympathetic to a man with a heart and a demon heart?Dump water to know kindness and repay the spring.The brotherhood is inferior to that of an anaconda, and the courtiers are especially cold for several times!
Therefore, ever since Huangfu suffered from the strange disease of "hysteria" that was good and bad at that time, his father Huangfu Ruozhou completely prevented his eldest son Huangfu Zhuo from appearing in front of him and his third son.

A few years later, when Huangfu Zhuo got married and had children, Huangfu Ruozhou gave Huangfu Zhuo a small town under the jurisdiction of Yi'an County, Luohe City, to Huangfu Zhuo.

However, that place is really small, about the same as a small county town.However, when Huangfu Zhuo took office as the new city lord there, his power was equivalent to that of the county magistrates in other surrounding counties.

Even so, Luohe City is known as a "Geomantic Treasure Land". The soil is fertile and productive, and it is like spring all year round.

Where is this going to work as an errand?Simply put, I can't live like a god every day!

This is indeed the case. I heard from the previous Luohe City lords that on weekdays, even small fights between neighbors in the city rarely happen.Those officials and military generals of the government office basically have nothing to do. When they go to the yamen post office in the morning to order and sign, everyone will often agree to go to the ground to help the elderly, weak, Only the women, children and young children were left to plow the fields, grow vegetables, fish and catch shrimps.

I'm afraid that Huangfu Zhuo is not going there to become a high-ranking official, but to go there to retire for ten days.However, he is also well aware of it, the father must have known the unscrupulous and unscrupulous things he did to his brothers back then.This time, the acts of "gifting the city" and "entering the rank" that Ming Sheng secretly demoted are also regarded as the most tolerant grace that his father gave him, so that he can also escape the catastrophe of being sought by others by chance. .

However, Huangfu Ruozhou also planned in this way: If Huangfu Zhuo knows how to restrain himself from this, and wants to live a good life, he should understand the truth and receive his kindness, after that, he can do things for himself from now on.

However, on the day when he took office and became the city lord of Luohe City, Huangfu Zhuo announced to everyone that from then on, he would never return to the city of Yi'an County.

However, no matter how ruthless and violent he is, he is still a person who knows how to keep his promises.Every year, it is customary to send his most trusted subordinate envoys to come here on his behalf for the offerings and treasures that are handed over to Yi'an County.Left and right, there are reasons why he didn't show up—after all, the third younger brother would fall ill when he saw him!

That's all, that's all... Out of sight, out of mind!So, very good, very good, isn't it?
