Emperor of the Immortal Dynasty
Chapter 24 First Encounter
High-ranking officials and aristocratic families either live in secluded places, or live in clusters. The State of Wu has Langfang, and the State of Liu also has Dongyuan, but it is a long street with deep houses and mansions on both sides of the street, all of which are the residences of important ministers of the State of Liu.The first building on the west side of the building is the Duke's Mansion. It doesn't look magnificent from the outside, but it is tall and formidable. The two stone lions at the door are majestic and majestic, with extraordinary momentum, which is worthy of the status of Duke Li.
The closer he was to the Duke's mansion, the faster An Bochen's heart beat. He had been here before, but he always came with the prince, and he had never been so frightened like today.Taking a deep breath, An Bochen was less than ten steps away from the mansion. At this moment, a figure flashed in his peripheral vision, and An Bochen turned around to look at the end of the street, his expression suddenly changed.Four or five healthy horses hang over the street, their hooves are wrapped in cotton cloth, and they wander silently. The riders on the horses wear bronze fang masks and stare at him from across the long street, perhaps because they are afraid that this place is Liujing. Heavy ground, dare not approach.
It's that lingering Wang Xin'er again!
An Bochen groaned inwardly, his thoughts turned sharply, and he guessed her reason for coming not long after.
In the daytime today, the relationship between her and the princess of the Ryu Kingdom... In Sima Jin's words, it was a "lily" relationship, and since she was with Princess Lizhu, she must be well-informed.Huo Guogong sent people to arrest "Mr. Li". With his means, he might be able to deceive ordinary people and ordinary officials, but it shouldn't be a secret for someone like Princess Liu.Wang Xiner came here this time, firstly to find out Huo Guogong's attitude, and secondly, seeing Huo Guogong attacking her, she wanted to take the opportunity to capture herself.
There was a look of resentment in his eyes, An Bochen stopped looking, and walked straight to the Duke's mansion, talking to himself.
"Maybe Wang Xin'er really thinks that she killed Young Master Li, who knows..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, An Bochen faintly felt that something was wrong, he frowned, and couldn't help but slow down.
Thinking while walking, when he was less than four steps away from the stone lion in front of the Duke's Mansion, his body suddenly froze, his face turned pale, his legs seemed to be filled with lead, and he could not move forward half a step.
"Oops, it's been tricked! If the son really escaped by feigning death, based on his friendship with Huo Guogong, there is a high probability that he will hand over the food adjustment warrant to Huo Guogong before he leaves. What's more, if Xiaohou really wants to leave, why not To go up to the seventh floor is unnecessary...Xiao Hou, Xiao Hou!"
An Bochen gritted his teeth, feeling deep frustration in his heart. He thought he had gotten away with it, but in the end he fell into Xiaohou's trap, and the trap was aimed at his An Bochen's life.
When the night wind blew in, Amberchen's back shivered, and his expression changed again.
"Not good, Sima Jin..."
For a moment, An Bochen was in a turmoil, and just wanted to rush back to the Moyun Tower immediately, but in the corner of his vision, the knight hovering at the corner of the street was clearly visible, suppressing An Bochen's impulse.
If he just ran back like this, Wang Xiner would definitely not let him go, let alone Sima Jin, even his own life would be in danger.But if Guomao rashly enters Huo Guogong's mansion, he will be caught in Xiaohou's trap. The previous rhetoric is no longer valid, and in the end it is still a dead end.
In front is Longtan and Tiger's Cave, and behind is also a cliff. A young man in a blue shirt stands stiffly in the Duke's mansion, in a dilemma, sweating profusely.
The sound of the watchman came from a distance, and the old watchman was walking carefully on Dongyuan Street with an oil paper lamp. An Bochen looked up and saw Wang Xiner's men and horses seemed to want to avoid the light, hanging their horses backwards avoid.An Bochen's heart moved, and he saw the opportunity to run around the stone lion and ran backwards. After running wildly for a while, An Bochen wiped the sweat from his forehead and stopped.Looking back, Wang Xiner's men did not chase after him. An Bochen settled down a little, standing in the back alley of the Duke's Mansion, thinking about whether to turn back to the Moyun Building or enter the Duke's Mansion.
"Hey!"
At this moment, An Bochen only felt the pain in the back of his head, and he let out a low cry, and saw a stone "gulu" rolling to the ground.
An Bochen turned around and scanned his surroundings vigilantly.
This is a narrow alley, located in the depths of the back house of the Duke's mansion, it is deserted and quiet, how could a stone fly in suddenly.
An Bochen felt strange, and subconsciously looked at Tiantou, thinking that maybe today's luck is so bad that even the birds won't let me go.
Unexpectedly, another stone flew towards Amber Chen's shoulder, and he turned around suddenly. Amber Chen saw a head shrank back from the high wall at the left rear.
"who is it?"
An Bochen was annoyed and shouted in a low voice.
But after waiting for a long time, the man didn't show up again, An Bochen frowned, turned around and pretended to leave.As soon as he took a step, An Bochen turned around suddenly, his eyes shot towards the wall like an arrow, and he saw a young man with disheveled hair showing half of his head, holding up the stone in hand, standing motionless against the wall, his face was stiff, and from time to time Qing Shihong seemed to have never expected to be caught by An Bochen.
Thinking of the unlucky things that happened one after another in the past two days, An Bochen felt angry and couldn't help asking.
"Why did you hit me?"
The boy on the wall did not answer, but stared straight at An Bochen with curiosity in his eyes, as if he had seen something very new.
An Bochen subconsciously touched his face, then raised his head, only to see the young man yelled and threw a stone at him.
The speed of the stone was so fast that An Bochen was stunned for a moment and couldn't react. Just as he was about to lower his head, the stone brushed his hair and flew backwards.
When the scream came, An Bochen turned around subconsciously, and as far as he could see, three blue-faced knights flew upside down from their horses and fell to the entrance of the alley.As soon as the movement came out, the front yard of the Duke's Mansion was brightly lit, and even the ten or so mansions on Dongyuan Street were noisy. The guards rushed out of the mansion with torches and sharp knives, and swept in all directions vigilantly.
An Bochen screamed in his heart that he was not good, and was looking for a place to hide when he saw the boy on the wall beckoning to him vigorously, motioning him to come in.
Looking around, there was no place to hide in this deep alley, An Bochen glanced at the expectant boy on the wall, hesitated, then nodded.The young man was overjoyed when he saw this, and he shrank his head and disappeared. An Bochen was wondering, the boy got out again, grabbed a rope and threw it at An Bochen.An Bochen caught the rope and was about to speak, but in a blink of an eye, his body flew up, over the high wall, and was firmly "placed" on the ground by the tall boy holding the hem of his clothes.
What a lot of strength!
Looking at the reddish boy in front of him, An Bochen was secretly surprised.Before, he knocked three adult knights off their horses at the same time with just a stone, and threw a straw rope to pull himself over a five-foot-high wall effortlessly, and then put himself down like a kitten or puppy. , His strength has already surpassed that of ordinary strong men, could it be that he is also a practitioner?
The boy was only wearing a thin blouse, and the chilly night wind blew in, but he didn't change his face.The boy looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, but he was half a head taller than An Bochen, and slightly taller than the tall Sima Jin. On the shoulders, his face was pale but not that sickly white, as if he was born that way.Looking closely, his pair of pupils were actually bronze in color, and matched with his pale face, they looked a little coquettish.
An Bochen looked at the strange boy, and the boy was also looking at him, with a hint of curiosity in his freshness, from head to toe, from foot to head, and then to himself, as if he was comparing something.
Being stared at so directly by the young man, An Bochen felt very uncomfortable all over, scratched his head and said.
"Shicai, thank you brother for saving me."
Inadvertently, An Bochen used the lines in the play, and the boy opposite him had a strange light in his eyes, but he didn't speak.
Could it be that he is a mute?
Looking at the talented young man, who was much more handsome than himself, An Bochen sighed inwardly.
In late autumn, he was only wearing a thin shirt, with disheveled hair, and stayed up most of the night. It didn't look like he was a son of a rich family. He wanted to come from a poor and humble background like me, and live in Huo Guogong's mansion.
Thinking about it, An Bochen couldn't help feeling a little bit of sympathy for each other, and the anger of being thrown stones earlier was swept away.
"If you can't speak, you can understand me."
Patting the boy on the shoulder, An Bochen said with a smile.
The boy still didn't speak, but the curiosity on his face became more and more serious, imitating his example, he also smiled and patted An Bochen's shoulder.But his strength was great, and the pain from this palm made An Bochen grin his teeth. If he hadn't cultivated the innate fire, I am afraid that An Bochen's bones would be swollen even if he kept hitting him.
"Tap tap."
An Bochen rubbed his shoulders and frowned. Seeing the boy take two steps back, a little at a loss, An Bochen couldn't bear it, so he forced a smile to comfort him.
"I'm not as strong as you, and I'm not as familiar as you. Next time, don't hit so hard."
"Next time?"
A slightly stiff voice came from next to his ear, and An Bochen thought to himself that he was not dumb. When he looked up, he saw surprise in the young man's eyes.
But after a while, An Bochen's face froze, and he finally knew why the boy kept silent.
The moonlight fell, and reflected on the face of the young boy with green pupils. Under his high bridge of nose, his lips were parted, revealing a pair of long and pointed canine teeth, shining under the moonlight, destroying his original handsomeness to pieces, making him even more ferocious. .
Seeing the startled expression on An Bochen's face, the young man also reacted, his face was flushed, and although he tried to be calm, he could not hide the disappointment in his eyes.
"Are you... born into a bottomless pit?"
After calming down, An Bochen asked in a low voice, and saw the young man suddenly stop in his tracks.
His chest rose and fell slightly, the young man turned around for a long time, looked at An Bochen suspiciously, and asked after hesitating for a moment.
"Aren't you afraid of me?"
"It's too late to be envious, so why be afraid?"
Amber Chen asked in confusion.
He was telling the truth. An Bochen was not too demanding on his appearance.
The closer he was to the Duke's mansion, the faster An Bochen's heart beat. He had been here before, but he always came with the prince, and he had never been so frightened like today.Taking a deep breath, An Bochen was less than ten steps away from the mansion.
