"Where is Wang Yupeng?" Li Yi suddenly raised his eyebrows and asked.

Qian Zong said lightly: "They are all in prison."

After that, when he saw Li Yi frowning, he added an explanation: "I'm afraid that he won't listen to the command and will cause trouble."

Li Yi frowned and stopped talking. He knew the strength of Wang Yupeng and the Cavalry Battalion, but Qian Zong was able to imprison all these brave and skilled cavalry in an understatement.

Moreover, while speaking, he also explained in a relaxed and comfortable manner that Wang Yupeng did not resist, or Wang Yupeng's resistance did not have much effect at all.

After a while, Li Yi narrowed his eyes and said with a smile: "The scenery here is so beautiful, how can it be without silk and bamboo to add to the fun?"

"I like silence." Qian Zong lowered his head and played with the undrinkable tea in his hand.

"Oh?" Li Yi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Since adults like to be quiet, how come Jiangnan is so lively now?"

Qian Zong paused with his palms, a trace of recollection appeared in his eyes, and then he let out a long breath as if he had given up, and shrank down.

The melodious sound of the piano sounded.

The two of them were relatively speechless.

…

…

Outside Yangzhou City, a tree-lined hill quietly leans on the edge of the river.

Lin Feng gasped for air and staggered towards the middle-aged man in front of him. His face was already covered with large beads of sweat. If he hadn't been trying to catch the man in front of him, he would have collapsed on the ground from exhaustion.

The middle-aged man went straight up the mountain road. When he reached the mountainside, he turned around and looked at Lin Feng, who was staggering on the mountain road and kept falling and then barely stood up.

"You're qualified." His voice was very calm.

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man waved his sleeves. Behind him, a deep tunnel suddenly appeared.

"Come in." The middle-aged man said coldly. Then he turned around and walked in.

"Here are the hundreds of thousands of innocent souls that I have collected." After Lin Feng arrived behind him, the middle-aged man spat out these words: "In three days, if you can survive, you will be the Son of the Holy Son."

Lin Feng listened to the shrill howls coming from the depths of the tunnel from time to time, gritted his teeth, lowered his head and moved forward.

"I'm not even afraid of death, so how can I be afraid of the souls of the dead?"

His voice seemed a little hollow and lifeless in this tunnel.

The light behind him dimmed for a moment. There was no longer any light in the cave. In the environment where he couldn't see his fingers, Lin Feng simply closed his eyes and moved forward slowly.

The cold wind kept blowing upward from the deepest part of the cave. The wind hit his face, making him feel as if the whole world had left him.

Yes, the whole world has already left me.

The master has abandoned him, his arms have left him, his cultivation has also left him, and even his own family has removed him from his name.

The wind blew through the cave. I didn't know which corner it was, and made a sound like laughter.

"laugh."

Lin Feng uttered one word coldly, and everyone was laughing at him. Then what else was he afraid of?

Even if there is an eternal hell below, what else in the human world can allow me to stay?

Suddenly, he remembered a bright color.

It was a red silk umbrella, and there stood a graceful lady under the umbrella.

He seemed to also see two lines of clear tears flowing down the other person's cheeks.

"Love?"

Lin Feng paused and opened his mouth to ask himself.

"You are not even a human being now, so how can you talk about love?"

He took another big step forward and answered himself with a big smile.

This step is the abyss.

"Bang"

Lin Feng fell into a deep pool of water. The water was not deep and only reached his calves.

He gradually adapted to the dark eyes, and suddenly he saw faint green pupils.

These pupils, seemingly endless, are spread throughout the dark and gloomy cave.

All eyes from all directions were staring at him, staring hard.

Lin Feng's body suddenly shrank back, he was afraid.

Then, his whole body was suddenly shaken. He didn't know where the strength came from, and he managed to stand up.

"You want to eat my soul?" he laughed.

What responded to him was that countless green pupils were approaching in an instant.

"ah"

A miserable howl came from the cave.

…

…

Jinling City Prison.

Li Yi held the key and asked with a surprised smile through the wooden railing: "General Wang, can this door be locked for you?"

"No." Wang Yupeng's white scholar's robe was spotless, and he did not mind being locked up in a prison at all.

"But the imperial edict can lock me." He explained easily.

"Let's go out." Li Yi smiled and opened the cell door.

Wang Yupeng walked out.

Li Yi asked: "Tomorrow's battle will be unpredictable. What do you want to do now?"

"I want to exchange a few couplets with you." Wang Yupeng also smiled. He seemed to rarely smile, but now he seemed a little shy when he smiled.

If his subordinates were to see his general's smile, I'm afraid his majesty in the army would be wiped out by half.

"couplet?"

Li Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled and patted the dust in his hands, and walked out casually: "Okay, maybe I haven't been right for a long time."

Wangjiang Tower, third floor terrace.

There was no moon in the sky and it looked very hazy.

Li Yi and Wang Yupeng sat opposite each other.

There was a pot of sake on the table, but no one touched it.

"Family affairs, state affairs, and world affairs." Wang Yupeng said softly.

Li Yi raised his eyebrows and said casually: "The sound of wind, rain, and reading."

"What will happen to my brother and my father after they die?" Wang Yupeng continued.

Li Yi suddenly stopped talking and looked up at the person opposite.

Wang Yupeng's eyes were burning, staring at Li Yi, as if trying to capture his psychology from the subtle changes in his expression.

Li Yi looked at the other party's fair face, picked up the wine glass on the table, and sighed.

He raised the wine glass in front of him and said nothing, just looking at the other person silently.

"It's over, let's talk later." Wang Yupeng uttered four words, then stood up, turned around and left.

At night.

Li Yi leaned on the bed quietly. It was not that he was not sleepy, but as soon as he closed his eyes, his mind was about to explode.

Today, he vaguely knew too many things.

He was even somewhat unwilling to sort out these things.

However, right now, Jiang Nan is already on his shoulders.

"grown ups……"

Emily smiled and leaned over. She widened her eyes and looked at Li Yi with a smile.

"What's bothering you?" Emily seemed to have no idea about tomorrow's battle.

Li Yi stretched out a hand and hugged the other person: "Yes."

"Sir, you might as well tell me..." At this point, Emily stuck out her tongue, raised her white palms toward the sky, and said with a smile: "I swear to God, I will never tell anyone!"

"Emily, you said, if you indirectly killed your friend's father..." After Li Yi said this, he suddenly shook his head and stopped talking.

He thought for a while, changed the subject and asked: "What would you do if your husband and your enemy were actually together?"

At this point, he added: "Not only your husband, but possibly your husband's entire family."

"I..." Emily frowned slightly. She glanced at Li Yi, thinking that I would naturally have no opponent...

"It depends on what kind of enemy it is." Emily stretched her eyebrows and pouted.

Li Yi took a long breath and rested his head on the pillow: "For example, we will attack the enemy in Jinling tomorrow."

"That……"

Emily was stunned. She thought for a while, but she didn't know what to say. In the end, she had to purse her lips and said: "This question is too complicated. If Emily can't figure it out, I won't think about it!"

"It's too difficult..." Li Yi closed his eyes. (To be continued...)

ps: I have a business trip for a few days tomorrow, which will last until the 21st. Jumu may not be able to guarantee the speed of updates during these few days.

However, please rest assured that there will be no interruptions, and I don’t expect this book to be a source of income. This is something I have always wanted to write.
Chapter completed!
