MTL - Ask Sword-Chapter 653 figured out

  Chapter 653 Figured it out

  Broken tiles fell like rain, the beams and columns collapsed slowly, and the floor tiles were inexplicably shattered, revealing the forbidden glazed light hidden below.

  In a scene where the sky was collapsing and the ground was sinking, He Si, who was kneeling on one knee, stood up slowly, and the circle of divine radiance around his neck firmly supported the sword's edge.

   "I thought, with your clever mind, Fanshuang, you could figure it out quickly."

  He Siping still had that calm, elegant, calm smile on his face, as if he was talking about an insignificant matter.

"Do you still remember when we were young, our family of four huddled together in a small dilapidated house on a farm outside the city. The house leaked rain and wind, it was cool in winter and hot in summer, and the small river in front of the yard often breeds mosquitoes. At night, you and I were killed by mosquitoes." Bite all over, A Niang was lying on the bedside shaking a cattail fan, and Aye was sitting at the table, counting the copper coins and crumpled banknotes that would be used to pay the rent next month with a sad face, just like him Do it several times, and the money will increase.”

  He Siping's sincere tone did not shake He Fanshuang, she just pushed the sword hard, the veins on her forehead popped up, "Is this your reason? Money?"

"of course not."

He Siping said with a smile: "After I applied for the school to study in Lianzhong Sanyuan and became famous in Chang'an, money was no longer a problem. Rich merchants and wealthy people from all walks of life came to announce the good news, and the courtyard was full. The invitations from the important ministers and dignitaries came one after another. , There are so many matchmakers, almost breaking the threshold.

  Overnight, we moved out of that dilapidated house and moved into the courtyard of Sanjin.

   It's funny that when I actually got in touch with the top sons and daughters born in golden spoons, I realized they were mediocre.

  Blind and short-sighted, arrogant and reckless, full of loyalty to the monarch and the country, men thieves and women prostitutes behind their backs.

  For them, even if the children of poor families have worked hard to get into the academy, they have only just caught up with the status they were born with. Future vassals will still be driven and used by them when they become officials. "

  He raised two fingers, clamped the blade, and slowly pushed it away from his neck.

   "Our parents and grandparents lived in Qianshou for generations, working as sharecroppers for a living, and there was never a single scholar.

  At the same time, some of my childhood playmates dropped out of school early to work as apprentices in a blacksmith shop, where they were splashed with hot iron on the back of their hands and became permanently disabled.

  Some were lured by cronies, became addicted to gambling, and stole to pay off their gambling debts, only to be beaten to death with sticks.

  Some sons inherited their father's business and started selling cooking cakes along the street. When they saw me again, they were so terrified that they couldn't even utter a complete sentence.

  The farm is the epitome of Yu State. Among the millions of people of my age, I am the only one who has turned a fish into a dragon in a harsh environment. "

   This is not a miracle, but a miracle. "

  He Siping let go of his palm, and a lotus-shaped dazzling light bloomed in his palm, generating heat waves.

  The roiling heat wave spread in all directions, and all the fallen bricks and tiles were blown away, and a large number of sparks rose from the wooden beams and columns that fell aside, and quickly carbonized and withered.

  He Fanshuang swung his sword back, and the soles of his boots slipped through the rubble, stopping his retreat.

   "Haotian chose, only the reason of the chosen person can explain my fate."

  He Siping said loudly, the light in his palm gradually condensed and turned into the shape of a long sword, "To do great things, to create great achievements, to leave a name in history, to be famous through the ages, and to be admired by all people, this is the mission Haotian entrusted to me.

  Since the State of Yu only wants me to be a virtuous, good, and loyal minister, I can only find my own way out. "

  “.”

  The corners of He Fanshuang's eyes twitched violently, and he could no longer see a trace of the past from the elder brother he once admired.

   Yes, it's just arrogance that swells to the limit.

   "Have you ever thought about what will happen to your sister-in-law, what will happen to your parents?"

  He Fanshuang soared into the sky, drew his sword and slashed at his brother.

   "What does it matter to me?"

The blades clashed, and collided more than ten times in a flash, He Siping said in a calm manner: "Your sister-in-law, like everyone else in the academy, cannot understand the greatness of Haotian, so naturally I don't have any feelings for her, it's just a disguise." .

  As for parents, you should not ask me this, but yourself—if everything goes well, there will be no more Yu Guo after tonight, and they will naturally be in no danger.

  If the plan doesn’t go well, your most sensible decision is to take them and escape in the chaos to avoid future liquidation—after all, you are already the relatives of the guilty ministers, and there is no place for Wanli Yu to stay. "

   After finishing speaking, He Siping struck He Fanshuang into the ground with a sword, and then chased towards the south.

  ——

  The thunder was rolling, the lightning was blinding, and the rapid thunder centered on the Canglong, falling continuously, igniting one house after another.

  Li Shan stood on the dragon's head, leaning on the dragon's horn with the mountain jade pendant, overlooking the burning Chang'an City, with a dazed expression.

"Why?"

  A hoarse voice came from behind, and I saw Prince Li Si, whose hands and feet were bound, kneeling on the back of the dragon, staring at his brother with a flush of red.

It is true that Li Shan's Wu family lineage made his childhood not smooth, but after so many years, the grievances have long been resolved, not to mention that Li Shan is currently in charge of the construction and operation of the Yu State Railway, with a high position and authority. , and there is no discord.

   Before Li Shan could answer, Concubine Wu Gui on the side said sharply, "This is what the State of Yu owes us!"

  Maybe she escaped from the bitter sea of ​​palace, or maybe she fulfilled her long-cherished wish, Concubine Wu's elegant and luxurious face was a little distorted, "Yu Kingdom should have belonged to the Wu family, but you, your Li family took it away!

  Hahaha, everything today is Li Shi's retribution!

  Father, mother, brother, have you seen it? I succeeded, my son Li Shan, no, it is Wu Shan, he is going to be the emperor, and when he ascends the throne, he will set up a temple to rectify the name of you, and comfort the spirit in heaven."

   Concubine Wu was insane, sometimes weeping bitterly, hugging and hugging her son, and sometimes cursing loudly, scolding the empress for being superior, scolding the courtiers for betraying the Wu clan, scolding the school for treachery, and scolding the emperor for being ruthless.

   "Prepare the crossbow arrows!"

  On the sentry tower on the surface, the officer roared hoarsely. The three soldiers worked together to move the spear-like black crossbow bolts into the arrow slots of the huge bed crossbow, while the rest of the soldiers turned the winch to tighten the crossbow strings, making the steel rope soaked in rapeseed oil creak.

  The blue dragon was getting closer and closer, and the billowing thunder shattered bridges and pavilions. The faces of the soldiers became paler, but none of them turned around and fled.

"put!"

  Seeing that the dragon body passed the pavilion in front, the school officer swung his arm violently, and the soldier swung his hammer to hit the wooden post on the side of the bed crossbow, triggering the trigger.

  sudden—

  The crossbow arrow shot through the air and pierced towards the blue dragon.

  At the same time, the outposts in each city, which gradually recovered their response due to the slow dissipation of the blood mist, also shot the same bed crossbow arrows.

  A rain of arrows shot into the sky, and exploded one after another at a similar height, like fireworks all over the sky. The inside of this special gun-shaped crossbow arrow is a thin black iron rod the thickness of chopsticks, and a blasting talisman is installed at the bottom.

After hitting the target, the vibration of the arrow shaft will trigger the talisman, causing an explosion, pushing the thin black iron rod further forward, generating a terrifying momentum, enough to blast through a three-foot-thick stone wall, and even hunt down some high-level monks who cannot dodge in time .

but

   Boom boom boom boom!

   Carrying hundreds of crossbows that the soldiers hoped for, they were all destroyed as if hitting an invisible wall, and a new round of fireworks burst into bloom.

"useless."

  Above the dragon head, Li Shan glanced over the jade pendant hanging on the dragon horn, lowered his head slightly, and muttered to himself.

  The streamer on the surface of the jade pendant rotates, with the Canglong as the center, exuding the power to resist all external attacks.

  The power of the Abyss Realm.
