【Kuan Xin】Snake and Venom

Lou Changsi was silent, his clear smoky pupils stared blankly at a painting in front of him, on the painting was a young man in a blue robe, talking and laughing, his eyebrows and eyes were as clear and clean as Lou Changsi's .

The person on the painting is very easy to identify, the young man is Yuan Zhongxin, but it is also Lou Yici's son, Lou Changsi.

A cold light flashed across Ning Qi's eyes, and his eyebrows were full of hostility. He sneered suddenly: "Chang Si, do you want to see your son? Shall I bring him to see you?"

Lou Changsi's hands suddenly clenched into fists and tightened. He gritted his teeth secretly, resisting the shameful pain in his body, and stood up slowly. The iron chain made a bang and bang sound, which reverberated on the flat ground. Lou Changsi turned around and straightened. Looking straight at Ning Qi, his face like an exile's face turned cold, and he said coldly: "Ning Qi, if you dare to touch that child, I will definitely make you pay the price!"

Ning Qi sneered disdainfully: "Now you are just a poor man, and I have ruined all your martial arts. How do you want me to pay the price?" She smiled kindly: "Or, do you want to take my life when we are making love?"

Lou Changsi frowned tightly, looked down at Ning Qi in front of him with a complex expression, his complexion was pale without a trace of rosiness, and his heart was full of bitterness, but he only showed a trace of helplessness: "Ning Qi, it's been so long, it's been 23 It's been a year, even if you hate Tangxi, it's time to let go..."

"Relieve hatred?" Ning Qi narrowed his eyes, pulled Lou Changsi into his arms, and said word by word: "Lou Changsi, it's you who didn't take my warning to heart, and you betrayed me." You made me stay with that bitch, and you forced me to do all of this!"

Looking at Ning Qi who became more and more hysterical, Lou Changsi was heartbroken and filled with regret. He should not have softened his heart and saved that young man, should not have misjudged him, should not have mistrusted him...

Ning Qi saw that Lou Chang thought silently, and laughed angrily: "What? Regret that you saved me at that time, regret that you let me enter the Dragon Guard Pavilion, and finally led wolves into the house and harmed yourself instead?" His eyes were scarlet, and the fundus of his eyes was twitching violently, he roared. : "Lou Changsi! I don't allow you to regret it! Did you hear that!"

Without any fear, Lou Changsi met Ning Qi's murderous eyes straightly, with hatred rising in his heart, he forcefully said indifferently: "Ning Qi, even if you kill me, I have to say, I am the most in this life. What I regret is that I met you, you caused my wife to be separated, my family was ruined, and I suffered a lifetime of shame!"

Ning Qi's eyes were about to split, his nails sank into his palms, pierced into his flesh, and a trace of blood oozed out, but he didn't notice it. Ning Qi didn't know how long it took before he swallowed the full-bodied sharp blade into his belly. He resented with a trembling voice. He said: "I won't kill you, don't try to provoke me, that bastard Li Tangxi is dead, the only one who can bear my hatred for more than twenty years is Yuan Zhongxin, I will definitely kill him with my own hands to vent my anger, Moreover, I want you to watch him tortured and die by my sword with your own eyes!"

Lou Changsi's pupils trembled violently, the blood on his face immediately faded away, his body stiffened, as if he had lost all his strength, he gritted his teeth and tried his best to push Ning Qi away, the blood in his heart surged, and he shouted in a hoarse voice: "I don't want to see you, get out!"

Ning Qi clenched his fists and looked resentfully: "I have hated Li Tangxi for 23 years, and I have refused to let your children go until now. You call me cold-blooded and ruthless, and you call me unkind, but have you ever thought about it? I, Ning Qi I have loved you for 23 years! Have you ever let go of your dislike for me?!"

Lou Changsi was so angry that his voice trembled slightly, and his lips turned white: "You slaughtered all the Qi clan in Tangxi, almost forced my child to death, and imprisoned me here for more than [-] years. You still have the face to ask me to let go of you! disgust?!"

Ning Qi yelled: "Li Tangxi caused my Ning family to be murdered, and the nine clans were imprisoned. She caused my life to be miserable! I hate her and hate her! Why do you only see the appearance?!"

Lou Changsi's words were choked up immediately, and he looked sad: "After so many years, you still believe that Tangxi harmed your Ning family, Ning Qi, how many times do you want me to say..."

Ning Qi shook his sleeves angrily, every word saw blood: "You don't need to say it again! What I believe will never be wrong! Lou Yici, I'm sure!"

After finishing speaking, he turned around and rushed out of the secret passage with killing intent all over the place, and disappeared from Lou Changsi's sight.

Lou Changsi fell to the ground, the chains rattled, and he saw his eyes were desolate, mourning unbearably, and murmured to himself unconsciously: "Yici, please don't worry, don't worry...Tangxi, You have a spirit in the sky, please, bless this child..."

In the past few days, Yuan Zhongxin has been staying in Qizhai, either with a sword or with a sword. He has not practiced his skills for three years, and he still has the tendency to swim like a dragon and a crane. Wang Kuan was as deadly as that, but he was still quite sharp.

Yuan Zhongxin, who had just finished playing a set of sword skills, put the cloud pattern sword into the scabbard, took a breath, paced and wandered once to ease his breathing, and fell into deep thought. His biggest problem now is still that his breath is too fast, and his breath is not stable. It directly causes offensive disorder, so that there will be many loopholes in the process of fighting the enemy, which is extremely harmful.

He frowned slightly, thinking of a solution, completely unaware that there was an extra person behind him.

As soon as Wang Kuan stepped into the backyard with a water bag, he saw Yuan Zhongxin walking up and down, thinking hard about something, he slightly pursed his lips and chuckled, walked behind Yuan Zhongxin, and before he could make a sound, Yuan Zhongxin turned over A slap came over, Wang Kuan didn't dodge, he took the slap with his confidant without hesitation, before the pain came, Yuan Zhongxin exclaimed: "Wang Kuan?! Why don't you hide?" open?"

Wang Kuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, held the hand covering his heart, and asked with interest: "What happened to you just now, you are so fascinated by practicing martial arts, you don't even know I'm here?"

Yuan Zhongxin frowned, nervous: "How are you? Are you injured? I was thinking about something just now, but I didn't expect you to come—how, does it hurt? Do you want to go to Xiaojing?"

Wang Kuan shook his head and comforted him softly: "It doesn't hurt, I'm not as weak as you think. Besides, didn't you take back your strength, how could something happen to me?"

Yuan Zhongxin let go of his heart, and said with some regret: "Why didn't you hide just now, if I really lost my strength, you would be injured by me."

Wang Kuan took the accessories in Yuan Zhongxin's hands, handed him the water bag, and smiled: "As long as you make the move, I will never hide - drink your saliva first, I heard from Zhao Jian and the others that you can also practice It's been an hour, and my body is just right, so I can't be too noisy."

Yuan Zhongxin took the water bag, but didn't drink it, and joked half-believingly: "I beat you and you didn't hide, what if one day I really hurt you?"

Wang Kuan raised his eyebrows and asked back, "Then why did you hurt me?"

Such a question stopped Yuan Zhongxin from asking, he blinked blankly, and didn't know how to answer for a while, so he said: "There is always an emergency, what if I really hurt you? manage?"

Wang Kuan really lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment, and then teased: "What else can I do, the person I like is going to hit me, is it possible that I have to fight back?"

Yuan Zhongxin pulled off the bottle cap with a smile, took a few sips casually, walked to the side of the stone chair and sat down to rest, suddenly remembered something: "By the way, how are Su Wuluo and the others doing?"

Wang Kuan found that he forgot to bring his handkerchief, and pulled his long cuffs to wipe the fine sweat on Yuan Zhongxin's forehead little by little, and said lightly: "Most of them are rough people, they are used to being free in the villa, and they have developed an unrestrained attitude. Temperament, it was a little troublesome to ask them to obey military orders at the beginning, but fortunately, they didn't recognize Liang Dutou and me, but they still recognized Su Wuluo. It would take some time to train them into mature private soldiers day."

Yuan Zhongxin nodded slightly, holding the water bag with a slightly dazed expression.

Sitting next to him, Wang Kuan said, "Among them, there are also people who have received military education, and some of them are very familiar with the geographical environment of the northwestern border of Song and Xia. I think you may need them. I have asked someone to order, and it’s okay to see them whenever you want.”

Yuan Zhongxin looked sideways at Wang Kuan, and asked in astonishment, "How do you know..."

Wang Kuan secretly sighed: "How can I not know what you are thinking, you seem to be practicing these days, but you are actually thinking about the Yinbing Pavilion, you are thinking about how to divide the battlefield into two places, right? ?”

Yuan Zhongxin stared at Wang Kuan intricately, and instantly didn't know how to say those words buried in his heart.

If it is really necessary to divide the battlefield, it proves that the military leader needs two people at that time, and he and Wang Kuanhui are the best candidates to lead the army.

But in this way, it means that the two of them will be separated again.

In the past, Yuan Zhongxin would have chosen this method without hesitation, but after experiencing the hardships of life and death and three years of separation, Yuan Zhongxin became less courageous. He had many worries, so he dared not take risks, and even more so. Dare not to separate from Wang Kuan for half a moment.

He wanted to be with Wang Kuan when the most difficult thing came, even if his life was hanging by a thread, even if the hope was slim.

Yuan Zhongxin suddenly felt a lump in his throat, and he said with difficulty: "Wang Kuan, I..."

Wang Kuan stroked Yuan Zhongxin's wrist with ten fingers, feeling the smoothness on his fingertips. He lowered his eyes slightly and said in a low voice: "We still have time, and we still have a chance to think about countermeasures—" He raised his eyes and looked deeply at Yuan Zhongxin. Zhong Xin felt his heart constrict suddenly: "Since that's the case, don't say the method you thought of."

Yuan Zhongxin struggled hard in his heart for a long time, and he couldn't bear it. He finally gave in and said: "Okay, we have thought of other ways." He gritted his teeth, and added: "But Wang Kuan, promise me, we have nothing else to do. When choosing, you are not allowed to make trouble."

Wang Kuan remained silent, just watching Yuan Zhongxin quietly.

Yuan Zhongxin was bitter in his heart, and patiently persuaded: "Wang Kuan, I know what you are worried about. If I had a choice, I would not go that far. But now, what we are facing is an army of 80. They are huge. Only by spreading out their forces can we increase our chances of winning."

80, this is a number that makes one's scalp tingle just by sounding it, besides, they are still murderous soldiers - if there is no way out, Yuan Zhongxin will not lead Wang Kuan and the others to take this risk.

Yuan Zhongxin buried himself in Wang Kuan's arms, wrapped his hands around his waist, rubbed his chin with his head, and sighed: "I will find other ways, don't worry, as long as there is a better way, I will definitely use it." , but Wang Kuan, I need your support now, I need your help, you have the right to make a promise that will never be fulfilled, okay?"

A hint of annoyance flashed across Wang Kuan's expression, he frowned, and his tone was somewhat aggrieved: "Zhong Xin, you can't always be like this, you know that I will be soft-hearted, and I will promise you everything if I am soft-hearted..."

Yuan Zhongxin raised his head and stared at Wang Kuan, and quickly pressed his lips on the other's chin, his smiling eyes crooked: "I am like this, do you agree?"

Wang Kuan bowed his head, and gently kissed Yuan Zhongxin's lips. There was no sentimentality, but the love he had accumulated for a long time: "I promise, I will agree to whatever you say."

He was planted in Yuan Zhongxin's hands, but he was happy with it and had no complaints.
