Chapter 8
Chapter 8
Because of the environment in which she grew up when she was young, Ah Xi didn't know what it means to be sad and happy, and she never thought that she would have the opportunity to experience this feeling of falling into hell in her life.
Grandma died very unwillingly, with a lot of resentment. He still remembers Grandma's wide eyes after her death. The face of the woman who was enveloped by unresolved resentment has long since lost her once outstanding beauty. , Grandma's fate in life was dominated by two ruthless men. As her son, he only remembered Grandma's entrustment, but did not shed a single tear for her.
For some reason, Ah Xi, who was filled with grievances from her mother year after year, did not feel sad about the death of her biological mother. She only felt that it was a real relief. Granny.
The young man under the roof who was crushed by everyone was the family member he poured all his hopes into. He was once his pride, and he was the one he wanted to protect for the rest of his life.
That lofty and honorable King Yuezhi is using the flawless body created by the Creator's favor to please several royal court elders who have decayed from the outside to the inside to the soul.
Ah Xi opened her mouth wide in pain, hugged her neck, wanted to vomit and cry, but couldn't cry a single tear.
This is by no means the first time this happened. Ah Xi dare not think about how Qing came here in the past five years, relying on her young and noble body to please those elders who can help him secure the throne. Old King Yuezhi cut off his artifact so that his body would not be whole, in order to blackmail those loyal elders to help Qing ascend to the throne, did he harm Qing in the end?
There is no one who is absolutely loyal in this world. It doesn't matter to these elders whether the old king is buried with his whole body. What they want is a Yuezhi king who can control them. Why did they not realize this until now?
At this moment, he should pretend that nothing happened and walk away quietly.
Qing had already obtained the guarantee this time, and he should save some face for him.
But he can't do it!
"boom--"
A loud noise startled the crowd below who were in full swing.
Ah Xi jumped in from the shattered roof and landed in front of the group of people.
The scene froze for a moment, first Qing called out in panic, pushed away the two people on her body, grabbed her coat and shrank into the corner, looked at Axi with pain on her face, bit her pale lips and turned her face away.
"Wuxi?" Esong frowned with a greasy face, and his fat body trembled with his breathing.
"What are you doing back here, brat? It's a good thing to spoil me!" The one on the side took a step forward, without any explanation, raised his thick arm, and waved it towards Ah Xi's face.
"Crack!" Ah Xi lifted his fist and swung his arm away. He was tall and hulking, and was hit by Ah Xi's fist to the numbness of his wrist. Where can he be, he rushed forward naked.
The rest of the people took a step back as if seeing a joke. Someone tried to pick up Sima Qing and continue, but he kicked him away, "Don't touch me!"
"Yeah, I've been raped by my artifact, why the hell are you pretending to be noble?"
After finishing speaking, he slapped him, and with a crisp sound, Sima Qing was knocked down to the ground, and the others laughed loudly, their dirty hands fell on Sima Qing's delicate skin, and they rushed forward like wolves, chattering endlessly.
Here, Ah Xi's posture is sensitive, and he cleverly dodges all the offensive attacks. The opponent is a man in his 50s after all. His agility and body skills are no match for Ah Xi, and he wants to finish Ah Xi with all his brute force After dozens of moves, the contrast between the speed of the two people's movements became more obvious. A Xi jumped behind the head lightly, and suddenly there was a half-curved thin blade that shone with cold light in her hand. Accurately stabbed three inches below the left scapula of Mrs. Wang, the scimitar was sharp and the blade was light and thin, no blood gushed out immediately after one stab, and the rest of the people did not notice this side.
The knife was so fast, I only felt a chill on my back, but before I felt any pain, Ah Xi grasped the handle of the knife and drew it out, blood splashed all over in an instant, a wave of blood spattered Ah Xi's face.
□□Like a gigantic object, he fell heavily to the ground, convulsed a few times and died.
The people over there had already stopped their movements, staring dully at Ah Xi's blood-stained face, like An Ye Shura, with a scimitar in his hand dripping with blood, slowly walking over.
I don't know whose cold sweat dripped from the tip of the nose.
Sima Qing covered her red and swollen cheeks, staring at Ah Xi.
"No, you go!"
Sima Qing, who was the first to react, jumped up suddenly, trying to snatch the scimitar from Ah Xi's hand and let him run away quickly. Killing her would mean turning against the elders. The Yue clan's military power in their hands is not just for fun. It's not easy to kill Ah Xi.
A Xi gave Sima Qing a hard look, and said, "I'm protecting you to the death not to let you ruin yourself!"
This accusation was Sima Qing's nightmare for the past five years, like a thunderbolt that made him almost faint.
"Together or one by one?"
The other three stood up slowly, staring at Ah Xi warily.
Because this is a dark matter, in order to protect the reputation of the elders, there are no guards in the courtyard, and all the followers they brought are guarded in the outer courtyard. Because there are no weapons, the three of them may not be able to subdue this kid together. Even more is not his opponent.
Even the bravest gangsters are not as precise as he stabs the heart with a knife, let alone three old guys who have been corrupted by wine and sex for many years.
The three backed away slowly, trying to take the opportunity to escape.
With a swipe of Ah Xi's knife, the three of them froze in fright. They didn't know who it was, and a hot smell of urine penetrated their nostrils.
"Don't, don't, don't...you can't escape from the royal court even if you kill us. Duoyan has already rebelled, and three of the chiefs of the eight clans have been bribed by him... If you want to kill us, the lord will do it, and there is really no one to support it." It's gone." The oily shine on Er Song's face was replaced by cold sweat, and he explained the pros and cons to Ah Xi tremblingly.
"Yeah yeah!"
The other two echoed.
Seeing that Ah Xi raised the knife unmoved, Esong swallowed his saliva, raised his hands to protect his head, and hurriedly said: "They will move tomorrow, the three of us can help you get the military power in your hands, plus our With the support of the clan, the chiefs of the various tribes will also be afraid, and will not turn against each other, and the position of the lord will be preserved."
"Okay!"
The three of them were taken aback, they didn't expect Axi to agree easily.
"It's not difficult to let you go, but you have to leave something on your body. Who said that your dirty thing is a magic weapon just now?" Ah Xi said every word very slowly, and it was because of the slowness that it sounded very penetrating. people.
The three of them didn't dare to speak, and subconsciously covered the bottom.
"You are all prestigious people, the most important thing is face, right? Otherwise, you won't leave your followers in the outer courtyard. If I engrave my Axi's logo on that part, maybe I can convince you that you spared your life. How? Is it a magic weapon or a life-saving weapon?"
Ah Xi squatted down and looked directly at the three shivering people huddled together.
"Don't test my patience. You all know how I killed Old Wang five years ago. I still have his so-called artifact."
"Dangdangdang... Is it really just a cut?"
"If you want to learn from the old prince, you can, but there is only one hole in his place."
"Doesn't hurt the Yang root?"
"I can't guarantee it, it depends on the size of your goods."
"Yes, can you be gentle..."
Axi turned her head and met the eyes of Sima Qing who was standing there blankly, "I leave it to you to perform the knife!"
"No!" Sima Qing turned her face away in disgust and resistance, pain welling up in her eyes.
"It must be you!" Axi suddenly stood up and grabbed Sima Qing's messy skirt, "In this position, you can't be cowardly, otherwise you..." Speaking of this, swallowed the hurtful words that blurted out, and lowered her voice. Said: "Otherwise Grandma will die with peace!"
Sima Qing collapsed and closed her eyes, covering her face with her hands, sobbing in pain.
He was very tired, and his mother's screaming order before she died became a curse for Ah Xi and himself. He didn't want to be this king, never wanted to, if he had a choice, he would rather die than be this Yuezhi king !
But Ah Xi has paid too much for him. He has been giving since birth. In order to keep this seat and also keep Ah Xi's hope, what does it matter if he spread his legs to please those people?what is the relationship?
An arm hugged his shoulder tightly, just like when he was a child, when he was frightened by his sick grandmother, there was always a not-so-generous embrace to cuddle with each other.
Sima Qing stopped crying under the comfort of A Xi's pat on the shoulder.
Take the knife and approach the three men.
"Ahhh!"
Sima Qing knows martial arts, even much better than Ah Xi. The three swords are very fast, and the wounds that are not too deep are guaranteed to leave irrecoverable marks.
"roll!"
Sima Qing yelled angrily, and the three of them pulled up their clothes, enduring the pain, and hurriedly fled through the door.
There were only two people left in the room, and there were still glaring stains on the big round table that had been messed up just now. Sima Qing bit her lower lip tightly and hung her head in embarrassment.
Ah Xi stood for a while and asked, "Where is the bath?"
Sima Qing didn't feel sorry for the moment, and after a while, she whispered: "There is a bathroom next door, with hot water." After speaking, he explained, "It's running water, very clean."
Ah Xi felt a pain in her heart, knowing that Qing was afraid that he would find it dirty, so she didn't say anything, but took his hand, and the two went to the bathroom.
The bathtub made of terrazzo has a hot water circulation inlet and outlet at the bottom. A Xi took off her clothes and stepped into the pool, and said to Sima Qing who was standing outside with an embarrassed face: "Come in, let's wash together!"
"no need……"
"Come in!"
Sima Qing took off the outer robe that she had wrapped in a panic just now, and the skin covered with bite marks spread out in front of Ah Xi.
The two sat facing each other in the bathtub, Ah Xi took the bath towel, and helped Sima Qing take a bath, her gestures were very gentle, and gradually became heavier, her skin became red from rubbing, and finally those marks were no longer so obvious.
Sima Qing gritted her teeth and endured the burning pain until Axi threw off the bath towel. Sima Qing picked up another clean one and helped Axi wash her face.
Gently and lovingly holding the bath towel with her index finger, she wiped Axi's eyebrows, temples, nose, lips...
The young man's face gradually changed, the tails of the eyes that were too high were slowly retracted, the eyes became bigger, the eyebrows that were too thin were thicker than before, gradually showing the appearance of sword eyebrows, the color of the lips turned red, and the corners of the lips were slightly pulled down. Upturned, the lower lip is rounder than before, the culprit under the nose is also shortened, and the upper lip returns to a slightly raised arc.
"night……"
Sima Qing looked at the face that was exactly the same as her own, and in her heart regarded him as another self, a clean, brave, fearless and energetic self.
I still remember the day when Ah Xi left five years ago...
"Ye, I'm so scared, do you think the concubine will protect us?"
The 13-year-old Sima Qing snuggled into her brother's arms, her beautiful face could not be concealed even by the dust all over her face.
"It's better to trust my mother than to rely on myself. How many times have I taught you that there are no gods and ghosts in the world, and the concubine is dead."
The two children have exactly the same faces, but it is easy to tell them apart, but it is easy to tell which is the elder brother and which is the younger brother just by looking at their eyes.
"Father is so scary. He looks at me as if he wants to eat people. Do you think we can escape?"
"Who said you want to escape?" Ye squinted his amber eyes, like a wolf hunting prey in the desert, "With me, Sima Ye, you are King Yuezhi."
The little boy stared fixedly at his brother's side face, when he suddenly heard the sound of the door hinge being pulled, and the glare of light illuminated the dark room he was in.
"Sima Qing, come out with me."
Sima Ye pressed his younger brother's trembling body, stood up, gave him a warning look, and said the last word, and walked out of the dark room.
——Sima Ye never existed, Wu Xi will come to you, remember!
Sima Qing didn't expect that it would take five years for her elder brother to replace him.
King Yuezhi and his eldest son were stabbed to death that day, and it is said that a young man named Wuxi did it.
Three days later, Sima Qing was pushed to the throne of King Yueshi. He saw the dead body of his father, with a ferocious face, and his lower body was in a mess.
The elders of the clan said that Sima Ye had cut away the old king's artifact, and those of the Yue clan with incomplete bodies could not get the protection of the gods and could not go to heaven. Sima Qing ascended the throne.
Old Wang's eldest son is dead, and the one who ascends to the throne can only be Sima Qing.
