Chapter 125

Seeing the signal flare, Song Yan was stunned for a moment, the suspicion and fear in his eyes receded, replaced by a faint puzzlement.

The signal flares in the air quickly disappeared without a trace, leaving only a very thin white line.

Song Yan pursed her lips, turned her head to look at Song Qingyi, but saw that she also had a thoughtful expression on her face.

"Sister Huang..." He hesitated and opened his mouth, "This signal flare means that someone has quit?"

Song Qingyi narrowed her eyes slightly, looked back at Song Yan, nodded slowly, "I remember that too."

In the audition rules explained by the waiter before coming here, there is a rule that the contestants are allowed to quit halfway, but once they quit, they will be regarded as abstaining.The servants who stayed outside Zhihui Forest to respond would blow whistles and set off red flares to remind the rest of the contestants.

Just after the audition started, someone dropped out. Who was it?
Both Song Qingyi and Song Yan were puzzled and hesitated a bit.

At this time, Song Qinghuan and Song Xuan, who were in another part of the forest, also heard the whistle and saw the red signal flare across the sky.

Song Qinghuan sat on the horse, staring at the sky where the signal flare passed by for a long time.

She naturally has the same doubts as Song Yan and Song Qingyi.

The princes and concubines who came here are all ambitious, and they will not give up until they get the Cangxie Sword.How could anyone withdraw so cleanly?
Puzzled, she looked at Song Xuan, only to see him looking at her thoughtfully.

"Who does Huan'er think it will be?"

Song Qinghuan shook his head, "No matter who it is, this person must regard his own life as more important than Cang Xiejian, and he is also very clear that he has no chance of winning in the sword seizing competition." Speaking of this, several thoughts came to mind. personal figure.

She collected her thoughts, "Who the hell is, we will find out when we go out. Right now, let's think about how to successfully spend these two days."

Song Xuan nodded in agreement, "In my opinion, we can go deep into the forest to find out the situation first, and then make plans."

"Alright." Song Qinghuan agreed, and the two of them rested for a while before continuing to head deep into the forest with their attendants.

The climate of Zhao Kingdom is pleasant, the soil around Lindu is fertile, and the rainfall is abundant. The trees in the Zhihui Forest grow extremely lush, dense and dense, covering the sky and the sun.

Because there are few people in the forest, all kinds of shrubs, weeds and vines grow together, and there is not even a decent road.The further you go, the harder it is to ride.

Moreover, the towering trees with luxuriant branches and leaves block out most of the sunlight, and the light and shadow in the forest are dark. Occasionally, light falls from the gaps in the leaves, drawing mottled and flickering circles of light on the ground, making it look more bleak and gloomy.

At this moment, Song Qinghuan saw a figure looming ahead with sharp eyes, and hurriedly made a silent gesture to everyone, then stopped and hid behind the bushes to look.

There was a distance between the group of people, and Song Qinghuan watched for a long time before he could barely recognize the group led by Jun Che, who seemed to be followed by Jun Han and Jun Xi.

According to her investigation, the relationship between these three people is not very good.

Zhao Kingdom has not established a prince now, and there is no rule of establishing a heir and an elder, and the able one always prevails.Jun Che is now the most popular in the court and has outstanding abilities. Although his mother and concubine have passed away, the power of his mother's family is not weak, and he has won over many ministers in the court.

Although Jun Han is not as powerful as Jun Che in the court, he is the leader of the guards and guards the border. However, he holds a heavy army, and he is also a competitor that cannot be underestimated.

Compared with this one, Jun Xi seems to be too unknown.

In her previous life, she had contact with both Jun Che and Jun Han, and knew what kind of personality they were, but she didn't know Jun Xi.

When she saw him at the Cangbing Pavilion that day, she became somewhat interested in Jun Xi, so she asked Xuanying to send someone to investigate Jun Xi's situation.

The people sent to investigate didn't find much information. They only said that Jun Xi was very low-key on weekdays. Compared with Jun Che and Jun Han, he was indeed much inferior.But his mother and concubine are favored, and he himself is extremely filial to Emperor Zhao, so he is also deeply liked by Emperor Zhao.

Even so, she was a little unbelievable.

It's interesting that the three of them actually got together.

While she was contemplating, she suddenly heard the faint sound of fighting coming from ahead, her expression froze, her eyes turned cold and she looked forward.

However, Jun Xi and Jun Che's people were already wrestling with each other, and the sound of fighting was endless.

The war started so soon?

Song Qinghuan narrowed his eyes slightly, looked carefully, and couldn't help being slightly startled.

The person who fought Jun Xi and Jun Che was none other than Song Yi!
Unexpectedly, Song Xuan and Song Qingyi were not seen behind Song Yi except for the five attendants. It seemed that they had parted ways and went their separate ways.

Song Xuan also vaguely saw Song Yi's figure, and frowned, "Huan'er, should we go up and help?"

Song Qinghuan thought for a moment.

Although the three Jun family brothers are their opponents, Song Yi may not be on the same side as them. In the current situation, it is better to wait and see what happens.

She raised her brows, "Brother Wuhuang, take someone here first, be careful not to expose yourself, I will take Xuanying to look ahead."

Song Xuan showed a look of disapproval, "Huan'er, if you go over at this time, if someone from the Jun family finds out, they will definitely think that you and Song Yi are together. It is too dangerous for you to go alone."

"Don't worry, Brother Five Emperors." Song Qinghuan comforted, and glanced at Xuanying standing silently behind him, "With Xuanying here, he can fight ten with one. Besides, I won't let them find out."

"But..." Song Xuan was still worried, "Why don't we take a detour first to avoid this muddy water."

Song Qinghuan shook his head, and said in a cold voice, "Zhihuilin is so big, and the Jun family is bound to win the Cangxie Sword. Even if you avoid it now, you will always encounter it in a short time. Why don't you take this opportunity and sneak away Wouldn't it be nice to sit back and watch from the sidelines, and then reap the benefits of the fisherman when they both lose in the fight?"

Seeing that she had made up her mind, Song Xuan reluctantly kept her mouth shut, not wanting to persuade her much.

Shen Xing and Liu Yue were still worried.

"Your Highness, I will go with you." Shen Xing said heavily, and Liu Yue nodded heavily, "Yes, Your Highness, it's too dangerous for you to go there alone."

Song Qinghuan's serious eyes swept over the faces of the two of them, and saw that their brows were tightly furrowed, their faces were serious, and they were full of worries.After thinking for a while, he ordered in a low voice, "Shen Xing stays here, be sure to protect the fifth prince well. Liu Yue and Xuan Ying go with me to check the situation. The others stay here and wait for the fifth prince to dispatch."

Shen Xing's martial arts are not weak at all, and he has gone through Aunt Chongjin's intensive training before, although he is not as good as Xuanying, but it is more than enough to deal with ordinary martial arts practitioners.Although Brother Wuhuang had also practiced martial arts, he was still inferior to some hidden masters in the forest.

With Shen Xing around, he can rest assured a lot.

As for Liuyue, she is good at knowing poison and using poison. Before coming here, I also told her to prepare a lot of poison and drugs on her body. If they want to sneak attack, poison and drugs are the simplest but also the most lethal method.

Although her tone was light, she carried the domineering aura of a strong person that could not be rejected. The others did not dare to raise any objections, so they all nodded in agreement.

Song Xuan told her a few more words, and Fang assured her to leave.

Song Qinghuan nodded to the crowd, took Liuyue and Xuanying, and sneaked towards the fighting place ahead.

With the cover of lush branches and leaves, the three of them unknowingly touched the place where Jun Che and Song Yi fought.

At this time, the fighting situation has become more and more intense, and the sounds of fighting, wind, and soldiers can be heard endlessly.Song Yi and his party clearly had the upper hand, and they looked somewhat unable to hold on at this moment.

Liu Yue looked at Song Qinghuan, waiting for her order.

Song Qinghuan looked around, knowing that although there were trees to cover them, they were still quite close. If Jun Che and the others were to call this way, the three of them would be easily exposed.

Thinking about it in my heart, I looked up and saw that the branches and leaves were luxuriant above my head, which is a good place for Tibetans, so I had an idea in my heart.

She glanced at Liu Yue and Xuan Ying, and pointed upwards.

The two nodded knowingly.

Song Qinghuan went first, using his lightness kung fu, he jumped onto the tree trunk, tapped his toes on the tree trunk, and quickly jumped to the top of the tree.

She looked around for a while, and saw that the view here was excellent, and she could see the fighting scene not far away by removing the leaves, and the canopy of the tree was quite large, which was more than enough for three people to stay here.

After some inspection, seeing that everything was fine, he lowered his head and made a "come up" gesture to the two people on the ground.

Soon, Xuan Ying and Shen Xing also jumped up.

Song Qinghuan signaled them not to make any noise, and held her breath to look ahead.

More than half of the five attendants brought by Song Yi's side were dead or injured, and only two of them were still wounded and struggling to eat.Holding a sword in his hand, Song Yi described himself as quite embarrassed, and stared at Jun Che, Jun Han, and Jun Xi with sharp eagle-like eyes.

"Eldest Prince, you'd better just catch him without a fight." Jun Che smiled sinisterly, in a tone that was sure to win.

The forest was quite quiet, and the conversations of several people fell into Song Qinghuan's ears clearly.

Song Yi wiped the beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, and said ruthlessly, "What kind of skill is three-on-one? If you have the skill, you can fight me one-on-one?"

Hearing the words, Jun Han on the side burst out laughing "haha" a few times. Having laughed enough, Fang raised his eyebrows, "The eldest prince thinks we will do this? On the battlefield, who cares about your morals and rules? It is an unchanging truth that the winner is king. It can only be regarded as your misfortune that the eldest prince falls into our hands at this time. Who told you that you just happened to be on the order?"

Song Yi is also a person who can bend and stretch. Seeing that aggressive tactics will not work, he narrowed his eyes and made another plan.This time, he took a soft breath, "how about we make a deal?"

Jun Che frowned, seemingly disdainful, "The eldest prince thinks, given your current situation, what capital do you have to make a deal with us?"

Song Yi snorted coldly, "Even if you kill me, so what? If you kill me alone, I still have Song Yan, Song Xuan, Wu Yang, and Ping Yang in Yu Country. Your chances of getting the Cang Xie Sword are still slim!"

He paused, and then continued, "Let's talk about Wuyang, she is now Xiang Xiang's person, and you should all have seen how much Shen Xiang cares about her. Who knows who Xiang Xiang will help when it comes to the sword capture meeting? Wu Yang himself Just keep it hidden, even I can't figure out how powerful she is, if she can get the help of Shen Xiang, won't it be easy to seize the Cangxie Sword?"

Seeing that Jun Che and Jun Han's expressions were a little loose, he was overjoyed and continued to add fuel to the flames, "You have to figure it out, your biggest enemy is not me at all, but Wu Yang!"

Jun Che raised his eyebrows sarcastically, "The eldest prince has said so much, what exactly is the deal you want to make with us?"

Song Yi took a deep breath, and said coldly, "If you let me go now, I can help you get rid of Wuyang!"

The muscles in Jun Han's eyes trembled, and his tone was playful, "If Empress Wuyang is really as amazing as you said, and she needs to help each other, why should we believe that you have the ability to get rid of her? We can get rid of you first. Get rid of it, and then go and get rid of Empress Wuyang."

Song Yi had just been injured in his waist, and now he was a little bit powerless, but he was holding on with a single breath. Hearing the doubts from a few people, his face became even more ugly, but he still had to pretend to be a grandson in front of these people.

"Wu Yang is cool, and his martial arts... are unfathomable. With Xiang Shen at his side to help, even if the three of you fight together, you may not be able to defeat her. If you want to end her, you can only outwit her."

Jun Che seemed to understand something, his eyes were slightly bright, and he looked at him with a half-smile, "Why, you want to sneak up on her first, and then attack her when she's not prepared?"

Song Yi forced his lips together, "The second prince is a smart man."

He couldn't bear it anymore, he just wanted a quick solution, and added, "This is the advantage that I have, but you don't have."

Their conversations were clearly heard by the three people on the tree.

Song Qinghuan was still good, with his usual calm and cool expression.

Liu Yue was so angry that she clenched her fists tightly, and her sharp eyes kept flying towards Song Yi.If eyes could kill, Song Yi would probably have died several times.

Xuanying's aura was also a little cold, as if she was about to strike at any moment and end up with Song Yi's appearance.

Fortunately, although they were close to Jun Che, Song Yi and the others, they were still at a high place, and they didn't notice anything.

Jun Che and Jun Han were obviously a little tempted.

Originally, before this, they did not list Empress Wuyang as the number one rival, but Empress Wuyang became a blockbuster at the reception banquet, and there were many rumors about her mysterious relationship with Xiang Shen, they had to re-examine this unknown Empress.

If Song Yi could really solve this Empress Wuyang for them, wouldn't there be a big problem missing?

At this time, Jun Xi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said coldly, "As far as I know, the relationship between the eldest prince and Empress Wuyang seems to be not good? Maybe, Empress Wuyang is more defensive against you than against us." very."

Song Yi's face darkened.

However, Jun Che and Jun Han became vigilant in an instant, their wrists moved slightly, and the silver light from the sharp sword body was reflected in Song Yi's eyes, causing him to panic suddenly.

"What's more..." Jun Xi stared coldly at him, "What if we let the First Prince go now, and the First Prince turns around and forms an alliance with others to deal with us together?"

Both Jun Che and Jun Han were shocked.

Originally, they didn't trust Song Yi very much, but after being reminded by Jun Xi, the suspicion in their eyes deepened, and they looked at Song Yi suspiciously.

Who can guarantee that he didn't deceive them first with rhetoric, and then make other plans?Even if he really ended up with Empress Wuyang, the relationship between them and Song Yi had already been completely tied, and if they were not careful, they would be beaten up. It seems that it is better to take this opportunity to cut the weeds and root them out.

As for Empress Wuyang.

If she is just a waste of fame, they are more than enough to deal with her.

If she really is not weak in martial arts, she can hit the head with a gun, and if they don't need to do it, others will definitely not let him go.

Song Yi is such a well-behaved person, when he saw the difference in the expressions of Jun Che and Jun Han, he made a decisive decision and stabbed at them with a sword.

Song Yi's sudden attack made both Jun Che and Jun Han stunned for a moment.

Jun Han stood directly opposite Song Yi, not far away.Song Yi's sword just happened to stab at him.Jun Han couldn't dodge in time, so he quickly took out his sword to block it.

Unexpectedly, Song Yi suddenly changed the direction of the sword and stabbed at his armpit.

Jun Han had no choice but to block with his sword with his backhand, but he was a step too late, and a long wound was drawn on his arm by Song Yi's sword.The sword energy was so fierce that it hurt the flesh and blood in an instant.

There was a piercing pain in his arm, his wrist trembled, and he almost didn't even hold the sword.

Song Yi knew in his heart that in the current situation, it's either you die or I die, so there's no need to care about other things, all moves are desperate.

Seeing that the situation was not right, Jun Che and Jun Xi hurriedly joined the battle with their swords.

At this time, the few people hiding in the tree still stood still.

Song Qinghuan hid behind the branches and leaves, only revealing a pair of clear and exquisite almond eyes, staring coldly at what happened in the forest not far away.

Unexpectedly, she watched a good show.

Originally, I was still thinking about whether to help Song Yi at the right time, but since he is ruthless, don't blame yourself for being ungrateful!

What surprised her even more was Jun Xi.

Song Yi has a gloomy temperament and is difficult to distinguish. He is well versed in the art of sophistry and can easily see through people's weaknesses.The deal he proposed just now is not unattractive.

Jun Han has been stationed at the border all year round. He has an impetuous temper and is not very scheming. It is not surprising that he would be moved by Song Yi's proposal.In contrast, people like Jun Che who are proficient in power and tactics are tempted for a moment, which shows that they really have the determination to win the Cang Xie Sword.

Under such circumstances, Jun Xi can calmly analyze the unreliability in Song Yi's words, which is indeed impressive and makes Song Qinghuan even more curious——

What kind of character is Junxi?
The clinking of weapons in her ear interrupted her contemplation. She narrowed her eyes and saw that the two remaining guards beside Song Yi had also been killed, and Song Yi was left fighting alone.

In fact, Jun Xi didn't make any moves, and seemed to be watching from the sidelines.

Jun Che and Jun Han surrounded Song Yi, their moves were fierce and merciless.This time, they and Song Yi have become mortal enemies, if they let him escape, it will be a big trouble for them.

The three fought for a while, but Song Yi was outnumbered after all. In addition, he had just been injured. After some fighting, he was already exhausted, and his moves were somewhat weak.

When Jun Che and Jun Han saw that his decline was evident, they were overjoyed, and they unleashed their killer moves to stab Song Yi.

Song Yi dodged Jun Che's sword, but when he turned to dodge, he was stabbed by Jun Han's sword from behind.The sword with a cold light pierced through his left waist, and the blood instantly stained Song Yi's clothes red.

Jun Han's eyes turned hard, and he pulled out the sword abruptly.

Song Yi staggered, his face turned pale due to excessive blood loss.

Jun Han looked at him coldly, feeling the heartache coming from his arm, his eyes filled with killing intent, he raised his hand, and just as the sword in his hand was about to fall again, he saw Song Yi suddenly turn around and swung the sword with all his strength. cut--

Jun Han's raised arm was cut off by Song Yi's sword that cut iron like mud!
Blood spurted out, and a piercing pain came, Jun Han screamed in pain, his facial features twisted together due to the pain.

This scene came too suddenly.Except for Song Yi, everyone was stunned in shock.

Jun Han's severed arm fell to the ground, rolling twice, mixed with the soil, branches and leaves on the ground, making it look even more terrifying.

On the side, lay Jun Han's blood-stained sword.

The corner of Song Yi's mouth curled up into a terrifying and treacherous smile, and he let the blood flow from his waist. He suddenly turned around, held the sword in both hands, and stabbed at Jun Che who was closest to him, who was still in shock!

Jun Che was terrified, and hurriedly held his sword to block it, blocking all the sharp sword energy.With a hard look, he turned his wrist and stabbed with his backhand, making another cut on Song Yi's arm.

At this time, Song Yi's whole body was covered with scars, and he was fighting with Jun Che with his last breath.

Just waiting to condense the final internal strength, he made a move with all his strength, and suddenly heard a suppressed and angry "Ah-" sound from behind, before he had time to turn around, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest.

Slowly lowering his head to look, he saw a sharp and gleaming sword tip protruding from his chest.

Song Yi struggled to turn around, but there was another pain in his chest. The sword that pierced his heart was pulled out, and the spurted blood immediately blurred his vision.

His eyes widened, the vision in front of him began to blur, and his thoughts gradually became lax.

His lips wriggled anxiously, as if he wanted to say something, but the only sound he could make was a "babbling" sound, and the deep unwillingness and anger in his voice could be vaguely heard.

His hands danced wildly in the air, trying to grab the last chance of life——

But in vain.

He is not reconciled!He is not reconciled!He still has so many ambitions and aspirations, how could, how could he die here? !
He planned for a whole life, and in the end... How could he end up like this in the end? !
Finally, he couldn't hold on any longer, and fell to the ground with a bang, losing his last breath.And his eyes were still staring, stained red with blood, staring desperately and unwillingly at the fragmented sky that was divided by the branches and leaves that obscured the sky.

After all, it is death.

Behind him, Jun Han was holding a sword in his left hand, the tip of the sword was dotted with blood, and there was a weird and penetrating smile on his face.

The forest fell silent for an instant, only the rough panting of Jun Che and Jun Han could be heard.

The attendants on the side were all shocked, and they didn't dare to show their anger, they bowed their heads and waited aside.

The expression in Jun Xi's eyes was quite calm, but his complexion was a bit pale, and he turned his eyes away from the bloody scene on the ground.He was not Jun Han, and he had never fought in and out of the battlefield, so he couldn't adapt to such a bloody scene. Coupled with the strong smell of blood floating in the air, it made people want to vomit.

On the tree not far away, Liu Yue also stared wide-eyed, looking at everything in front of her in disbelief, and covered her mouth with her hand so as not to let herself exclaim.

The First Prince actually... died just like that? !
Trembling, she turned her head to look at Song Qinghuan, still in a daze.

Song Qinghuan's eyes were still cold, his eyes were calm, his long eyelashes flickered slightly, and his breathing stagnated almost inaudibly.

Although she had already foreseen Song Yi's end just now, seeing it with her own eyes was another matter.

Song Yi and her were almost strangers, she was not sad.

She just lamented Yu Jun Che and Jun Han's ruthless strikes, and the moves just now clearly carried a fierce and murderous look.With such a strong hostility, and being provoked by Song Yi just now, if they meet him next time, they will definitely attack with all their strength to eradicate this thorn in their side.

These two people are getting jealous right now, it's better for him to avoid their edge for the time being.

Thinking of this, Chao Liuyue and Xuanying gestured to go down.

Just as he was about to mobilize his internal energy, he suddenly saw a new movement in front of him which had been silent for a while.

She frowned, temporarily stopped her movements, and looked there.

Although Jun Han killed Song Yi to vent his hatred, he was stunned for a long time, and finally came back to his senses. He stared blankly at the sword in his hand, then turned his eyes suddenly, and looked at the severed limb on the ground. flutter.

Finally, with a movement of his hand, he dropped the sword on the ground, and then stumbled to pick up the stumps on the ground.

He held the stump in his hands, tears in his eyes, and the blood on his face, as if weeping blood tears, which made people shudder.

At this time, like going crazy, he suddenly picked up the sword that fell beside Song Yi, and stabbed at him continuously, his eyes were red with evil, and his body was full of hostility, which made people shudder.

Because of Song Yi, he was completely crippled for the rest of his life. He had nothing to do with his accomplishments or the throne!The anger in his heart was constantly burning, Song Yi's death, how could it be enough to quell the hatred in his heart? !
Jun Han stabbed his head and face, and finally exhausted all his strength, his legs gave way, and he fell to his knees, looking up to the sky and screaming.

what--

Suddenly, the whistling sound stopped abruptly.

A strange and unbelievable expression appeared on Jun Han's face.

He was like a puppet, slowly, slowly lowering his head.

He saw that on his chest, just like Song Yifang, there was a sharp and gleaming sword tip.
