Chapter 85: A Journey to the North (2)


Lian Mo wrote a letter and gave it to the accompanying team to take back to Xichi, and then set off to the royal city with Yuan Xin alone.

The royal city is located on a higher ground, far away from the busy city, and has to pass through a forest.

As soon as he entered the forest, Yuan Xin noticed something strange.

He always felt that everything around him was strange.

Lian Mo was walking in front.

Seeing that Yuan Xin was not following, he asked, "Why don't you leave?"

Yuanxin looked around cautiously, grinned and said, "It feels like there is a ghost."

Lian Mo smiled easily, "I don't believe in the theory that strange powers can confuse gods."

"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs," Yuan Xin sighed and followed up, "I always feel that something is wrong here.

I can't explain it.

It's eerie and scary.

Be careful."

"Just take care of yourself."

Lian Mo continued walking along the narrow path, only to hear Yuan Xin scream "Ah" from behind.

Lian Mo turned back and strode over, "What's wrong with you?"

Yuan Xin rushed forward and hugged him tightly, "I'm afraid I'll die here."

He just kicked a few grasses with his feet and found that his feet couldn't touch anything.

The grass was still standing motionless.

It turned out that they were all phantoms, so he screamed in fright.

Lian Mo was not used to being held by him and pushed him away in disgust, "I come here every year and I'm still alive and well."

"Really?"

Yuan Xin asked dubiously, "Do you feel that this place is different today than before?"

Lian Mo replied, "I think you are different from before."

"Oh, I'm serious."

Yuan Xin pulled him and said sincerely.

Lian Mo shook off his hand, took two steps back, and asked, "Then what do you think is different?"

Yuan Xin was furious, "I've never been here before, so I don't know if you've heard of the Phantom Array."

Lian Mo shook his head, "No, nothing."

"Pick some grass and give it to me."

"You can play with me yourself."

Lian Mo felt confused and turned around to continue walking forward, not wanting to take a chance on him.

Yuanxin ran over and stopped in front of him, "I'm not teasing you, look at it."

Yuanxin bent down and pulled the grass, but the grass was like a shadow, no matter how Yuanxin's hands caught it, it remained motionless.

Lian Mo noticed something was wrong and tried to sweep it with his sword a few times.

Then he took a few steps forward to touch the trees.

Sure enough, they were all phantoms.

Lian Mo panicked in his heart, "How could this happen?"

Yuan Xin asked him, "Then how did you approach the royal city?"

"Just go in along this road."

Lian Mo was still immersed in panic.

Yuan Xin gave him a thumbs-up gesture and said, "If you can take me out today, I will obey you.

You can walk around first.

If you can't get out, I will explain to you."

Yuan Xin motioned for him to move forward, praying secretly, hoping that Lian Mo's experience was correct and that he could really go out today.

Sure enough, an hour later, Lian Mo said helplessly, "I seem to be lost."

Yuan Xin was not surprised and nodded and said, "Then let's wait here to die."

Lian Mo asked with a sense of luck, "I just got lost, it's not that serious."

Yuan Xin explained to him, "I have been in contact with the phantom array, and I noticed something strange as soon as I entered.

You were able to walk out smoothly before.

I guess it is because they had removed the array when you came, and it was restored after you left.

Formation."

After what happened just now, Lian Mo gradually agreed with Yuan Xin's words and asked, "Why did they do this?"

Yuan Xin analyzed, "Maybe it's for self-protection.

Don't you think this is the best way to prevent the royal city from being attacked?

It's no wonder that the emperor sent people to the northern capital to inquire about the information and returned without success."

Lian Mo asked, "Then what should we do?"

Yuan Xin stared at Lian Mo and suddenly burst out laughing.

Lian Mo suddenly realized, "You are kidding me."

"No, no, no," Yuan Xin waved his hands repeatedly, holding his stomach to calm down for a while, and said, "I just didn't expect that one day you would ask me to make an idea.

I have always admired you.

Really, whether it is your character, martial arts or You are so talented that I regard you as a master.

Unexpectedly, you were chosen by me.

When the tide turns and you are unable to do anything, hahahaha, this feels so good."

"Are you praising me or yourself?"

Lian Mo rolled his eyes at him, "You are still in the mood to joke, it seems you already have an idea in mind, right?"

"Yes," Yuan Xin was still happy, "The phantom formation has its own formation eyes.

We just need to find them."

Lian Mo nodded, "How to find it?"

Yuan Xin laughed again, and then saw Lian Mo's angry gaze, and hurriedly suppressed his laughter, and said seriously, "At least one thing in this formation is real, and it is the eye that converts reality and reality."

"In such a big forest, do you have to search piece by piece?"

Yuan Xin spread his hands and expressed that he had nothing to do.

He remembered that when he first returned to the capital two years ago, he had set up a phantom array in Cheng Zheng's study.

With his ability, he could only set up such a large array, and the array he faced now was a phantom array.

With the forest and the royal city, I have no confidence in how far away I am.

How powerful are the people who set up the formation?

Even if I can break the formation, how can I trust myself in the face of such a powerful enemy?

The future is dangerous.

The two of them wandered around in the forest until dusk.

They were exhausted and fell down in front of a lake.

Lian Mo lay on the ground and complained, "It's like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Don't you have an easier way?"

Yuan Xin shook his head weakly, "No.

If there was, I would have told you long ago."

"When will this be found?"

Lian Mo looked at the sky desperately.

"So I said we are going to die here.

We haven't eaten for a day.

We will probably starve to death before we can find the formation."

Yuan Xin turned his head and looked at Lian Mo.

He said goodbye to his previous playful personality and said deeply He said, "Cousin, it's me who has caused trouble for you.

I shouldn't have dragged you into taking risks with me.

I'm a nuisance and will only bring disaster to the people around me."

"Shut up."

Lian Mo sat up and interrupted him, "Don't talk about yourself like that."

"To be honest, I killed my grandfather, I killed my mother, and I killed A Yin.

It's all because of me."

Yuan Xin smiled bitterly, "I am a disaster."

Lian Mo pulled him up and said seriously, "Then you have the ability to kill me first, and then before I die, I won't allow you to say that about yourself."

Yuan Xin was deeply moved and said affectionately, "Cousin, you are so kind."

"Shut up.

I can't stand a man saying this to me."

Lian Mo didn't appreciate it.

"Then just treat me as a woman.

I don't mind.

Anyway, I just want to say, you are so kind."

Lian Mo cursed, picked up Yuan Xin and threw him into the lake.

Yuanxin was caught off guard and struggled desperately in the lake.

The water was freezing cold.

Yuanxin felt pain all over his body.

He yelled angrily, "Lian Mo, your uncle, I said nice things to you and you actually threw me into the lake.

You are not done with me anymore."

Yuanxin struggled to swim to the shore, and suddenly woke up as if from a dream.

He ignored the coldness on his body and showed an excited expression, "Cousin, this water is real.

This water is real."

Yuan Xin excitedly asked Lian Mo to get down in the water.

Lian Mo was unwilling to do so.

It was life-threatening to go into the water in such ice and snow.

Lian Mo helplessly picked up the sword and threw it to Yuan Xin, then waded into the water.

The two crossed the center of the lake and saw another scene in front of them.

Towering city walls, straight avenues, and the royal city under the ice and snow were magnificent and bright, as dazzling as a crystal palace.

Yuan Xin rushed forward impatiently, "Wow, it's so beautiful."

Before Lian Mo could stop him from shouting, a bunch of spears had gathered in front of Yuan Xin.

He shouted to Lian Mo in panic, "Go back quickly."

"No matter what happens, it's coming."

Lian Mo stepped forward confidently and glanced at him, "If you fail to succeed, you will fail."

Lian Mo said to a circle of guards holding spears surrounding them, "I am the second prince of Xichi, and I want to meet your king."

The guard didn't buy it.

"Trespassing to the royal city without permission is a capital crime.

No matter who you are, you will be escorted to prison first and handed over to the commander tomorrow."

Yuan Xin curled his lips and said, "Cousin, it seems that your identity is of no use."

The two were imprisoned in the prison, wearing soaked clothes.

Yuanxin was shivering from the cold, and his upper and lower teeth were trembling.

"Cousin, I think I will freeze to death before dawn."

"Do you have any money?"

Lian Mo asked.

"How smart, why didn't I think of that."

Yuanxin happily took out a piece of silver and threw it towards the guard across the fence.

When the guard saw it, he picked up the silver and ran over.

Yuanxin laughed and said, "Here's a brazier.

OK."

The two sat opposite each other around the fire pot, finally getting some warmth.

Yuan Xin sighed, "Money is such a good thing."

Lian Mo sighed, "But our problems cannot be solved by money."

Yuan Xin said with a sad face, "Yes, we were arrested as soon as we came in, and we didn't even visit the royal city.

It's a bit too tragic.

We won't be killed."

Lian Mo was not worried and affirmed, "No, if my identity doesn't work, then we will fight out.

I still have the ability to protect myself."

"Then what should we do?

Now that we are behind bars, we still want to investigate people.

It is simply unreasonable."

Yuan Xin felt desperate, shook his head and sighed.

"Let's take it one step at a time and see the king tomorrow to test it out."

The two of them were warming themselves up by the fire when they heard something moving outside.

They saw a delicate woman wearing a snow-white embroidered robe running quickly.

She shouted eagerly into the cell, "Brother Lian Mo!"

Lian Mo stood up in a hurry, raised his hands and saluted, "Princess Qianxue."

Seeing that Lian Mo was so polite, Yuan Xin was too embarrassed to sit any longer, so he stood up and looked at the woman in front of him, whom Lian Mo called Princess Qianxue.

She had beautiful features and radiant eyes.

Her skin was ruddy and delicate, and her long hair hung down to her waist. , graceful and moving.

"Brother Lian Mo, I heard from the Imperial Master that you were imprisoned here and came here to see you.

Didn't you just leave?

Why are you back?"

Qianxue shouted to the guard, "You haven't opened the cell door yet?"

The guards responded repeatedly and opened the cell door.

Qianxue entered enthusiastically and took Lian Mo's arm, "Come on, let's go out and tell you why your clothes are still wet."

Lian Mo took a step back and said, "Thank you princess.

I was about to leave, but suddenly remembered something, so I broke into the royal city without reporting it and was imprisoned here.

I will make it clear when I meet the king tomorrow, so don't worry about it, princess." " "Oh, it's okay.

My father won't take it seriously."

Qianxue advised, "Let's go and I'll arrange a place for you.

After all, you are honored guests.

It would be outrageous to spend the night in jail."

Lian Mo declined, "Thank you for your kindness, princess.

I'm just a foreigner, so it's inconvenient to walk in the royal city late at night.

Please allow me to stay in prison, princess."

Qianxue pouted with displeasure on her face, "But it's too difficult here.

There's not even a bed or bedding.

You're still wearing wet clothes.

No, it's too cold at night.

You'll get sick here."

"It's enough to have a brazier here.

I'm a martial arts practitioner and I'm strong.

Princess, don't worry."

Lian Mo refused firmly.

Yuan Xin finally figured out that these two people were in love with each other, but Lang had no intention of doing so.

Qianxue calls him eldest brother, which shows that she wants to get close to him in her heart.

However, Lian Mo pretends to be a princess, polite but distant, and deliberately puts distance between the two of them.

He finds various reasons to shirk Qianxue's help.

He probably doesn't want to owe her any favors, and it can even be said that he I don't want to give her hope.

However, Qianxue's kindness was hard to resist.

If the stalemate continued, both parties would be embarrassed.

Yuan Xin sighed secretly and stopped Qianxue who wanted to continue persuading her.

"Princess, you don't know something.

I like to cause trouble and am not serious all day long.

This time I followed my elder brother to Beidu.

I wanted to see the royal city, but I didn’t expect it.

My eldest brother didn't take me with him when he entered the palace.

I was unhappy, so he sneaked over alone.

My eldest brother came into the palace to look for me when he noticed that I was missing.

Unexpectedly, he was caught by the guards as soon as he came in.

You are still locked up here.

Don’t tell me to leave.

My eldest brother is very loyal and he will never leave me behind.”

Qianxue answered readily, "I can arrange a place for you to live together."

"But my eldest brother is worried," Yuan Xin patted Lian Mo on the shoulder, "You just took me out with your front foot, and as soon as you turned around, I disappeared.

The royal city is so beautiful, how can I live in it honestly if I don't play it all over?

In another room."

Qianxue was angry, "You are too presumptuous.

The royal city is such an important place and there are so many concubines and female relatives.

How can it be a place for you, a man, to play around?"

Yuan Xin said with a bad smile, "So, my eldest brother doesn't dare to take this risk, and princess, don't ask for trouble.

If I really don't know the heights of the world and cause a big disaster, and I will be beheaded by your father tomorrow, how can my eldest brother?"

Can I hate you?"

Qianxue covered her mouth and stopped talking.

Yuanxin had succeeded in his first step.

He deliberately obtained clues from Qianxue and thought of an excuse to leave her behind.

"My elder brother knows the princess's wishes.

It's better to have the princess sit down and accompany her and me."

Let’s chat for a while, so that the princess doesn’t seem to be neglecting my eldest brother, and the eldest brother doesn’t have to be embarrassed.

Isn’t it the best of both worlds?”
