City of King Yu.
Pedestrians on the long street come and go, including traders and foot soldiers who are running for a living, talented tourists who go to Beijing to study, and dignitaries who are busy with the country and the country.
Among the endless crowd, a short, thin and ragged young man caught the attention of pedestrians.
He was barefoot, wearing a tattered gown, and could not hide the smell of blood on his body. He walked step by step down the long street, leaving a long line of bloody footprints.
"This kid...why is he covered in blood?"
"Hey, it's so pitiful. I don't know which family the child is from..."
"Young man, have you eaten yet? Can I give you a piece of cake?"
A vendor on the street took a piece of big cake from the stall and handed it to the young man. The young man looked at it coldly, shook his head dully, held a baggage tightly in his arms, and moved towards it step by step. Walk to the inner city.
"drive!"
"drive!"
"The border is urgent, pedestrians please move out of the way!"
A long shout came from afar, and a tall and mighty knight was seen holding a roll of official documents and galloping on the broad street. The young man raised his eyes and quickly stopped him with bare feet.
"Brother, is this news from the Western Region?"
"Your boy is dying!"
The knight stopped suddenly and almost fell off his horse, glaring angrily at the young man in front of him who looked to be no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, like a 'beggar'.
"Tell me, is this information from the Western Region?"
"Has Xuanjian Pass been defended?"
"Is there any news about His Royal Highness King Sheng?"
The knight saw the eager look on his face, thought for a moment, and hummed softly: "For the sake of the good news, I won't argue with you today!"
"It's not news from the west. There is a great victory in the east. General Yue Fei led 10,000 cavalry to conquer five cities."
"Now the main army of the two princes in the east is marching ten miles eastward."
"Okay, you kid, get out of the way!"
When the young man heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he looked sad. After a long time, he looked at the scout and said: "Since it is a good news, you are not as anxious as I am, so I can lend you a horse."
As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Jiu rushed forward, turned over, jumped, kicked the scout down, and then galloped towards the palace.
"you……"
"Asshole!"
…
Prince Sheng's Mansion.
As the eldest son of the current dynasty and the powerful God of War, Dayu's mansion was backed by the palace and facing the main street. It was surrounded by dignitaries and dignitaries, and several armored soldiers stood solemnly in front of the door.
Even if you just feel the aura on their bodies, you can know that these soldiers guarding the palace are all veterans who have been on the battlefield.
There was a trace of evil energy sweeping over each of them, and their eyes were filled with a determined luster.
"drive!"
A man and a horse slowly stopped in front of the palace, attracting the attention of all the veterans. It was a young man with a complicated expression who was carrying a burden.
His body exuded an aura that had the same roots as them, and the veterans knew at just a glance that he should have come from the same place as them.
"Who is coming?"
"This is an important place in the royal palace, but what's the important matter?"
An old soldier came forward to ask. Ji Jiu had a look of confusion on his face. He squeezed the bundle in his arms tightly and slowly turned over and dismounted.
Looking at the majestic and majestic palace in front of him, the three gilded characters of Prince Sheng's Palace seemed to be transformed into a majestic figure, reappearing in his mind.
…
One day ago, on the ancient road outside Xuanjian Pass.
"May I have your name?"
"Back to the prince, the last general, Ji Jiu, meets His Highness Prince Sheng!"
"Are you from my Zhenxi Army?"
"Exactly!" Ji Jiu looked at the heroic young man in front of him with excitement, tears bursting out of his eyes in an instant, and he kept looking behind the young man: "My lord, you are finally here, the reinforcements... Where are the reinforcements?"
"All my brothers are almost dead, and Xuanjian Pass cannot be defended. General Chang and General Zhao are leading more than a hundred remaining soldiers to hold on desperately!"
"Please quickly send troops to help!"
Ji Jiu seemed to have found a backbone, and spoke while choking, his eyes full of hope. In his knowledge, as long as His Royal Highness Sheng comes and their God of War comes, Xuanjian Pass will be saved.
"Wang...Prince?"
Ji Jiu looked at the always courageous and resolute commander in front of him whose eyes were filled with tears. He couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, feeling a little at a loss.
"Your Majesty!"
"Um!"
Ning Chen nodded slightly, with a smile on his face, and looked at the young man with a green face in front of him: "Since you are from my Suppressing West Army, why are you here?"
"Back to your lord... Ji Jiu, the commander of the Guards Battalion of the Last General Zhenxi King's Army, went to the royal city to report to the court on the orders of General Chang'an... Xuanjian Pass has been lost, so make plans early!"
"Did you plan ahead?"
Ning Chen seemed to be laughing at himself, the look of regret in his eyes flashed away, and then he said calmly: "There is no need to report the news, just wait for me!"
"promise!"
Ning Chen looked around, his expression suddenly condensed, his expression instantly darkened, and he stared straight in one direction, his eyes flickering.
"Forget it, I won't write any more letters."
"Let's go!"
"Your Majesty?"
"Take this gold medal. This is my Emperor Yu's Gate Order."
"Remember, no matter what you find, encounter, or see on the way back, you must not say a word after you return to Beijing!"
"I want you to swear by the honor of our Zhenxi King's Army that even if you find someone who wants to betray the court or even assassinate me... you are not allowed to confide in anyone. Do you hear me?"
"Your Majesty?"
Ji Jiu's expression suddenly changed, he held the heavy gold medal in his hand, and there was a hint of confusion in his eyes.
"Is someone trying to harm you?"
"Don't talk nonsense. No one will harm me. After you go back, if you have a chance, go back to the palace for me and tell the princess that you will take good care of me!"
"Your Majesty, Xuanjian Pass has been lost. If you go alone, wouldn't it be..."
"No need to say more, go quickly and remember not to look back!"
"This is a military order!"
"promise!"
When Ji Jiu heard the word "military order", he respectfully performed a military salute, then galloped forward on his horse. After the people disappeared, Ning Chen glanced at the mountains and forests, and said calmly: "If you are from outside, , you can take action now, I am the only one in this canyon!"
There was no response from the jungle, only a few frightened birds fluttered their wings, and Ning Chen continued to speak: "If you are one of your own, there is no need!"
Ning Chen seemed to be laughing at himself, looking at the figure that was gradually disappearing in the distance, as if he was talking to himself or talking to others.
"Of all the people in this world, no one understands me!"
"Jianghu, the temple is too small to accommodate me."
"If you think about it carefully, there seems to be nothing worth cherishing in this world, so that's fine!"
Ning Chen seemed to have lost his mind and laughed loudly. He stood upright and spoke boldly: "I am going here to lead a hundred thousand loyal souls to conquer the underworld!"
"Don't think about it, gentlemen!"
After saying that, he rode off on horseback, tears streaming down the ancient road, and riding like a horse!
