Chapter 106 [Lost Memory](1/2)
It was already midnight when Mo Wuhen arrived at the imperial capital of Xuanwu Kingdom. Except for Pu Longqi, no one else knew her exact itinerary. She didn't have much interest in the alliance. What's more, she would have to leave the Queen for a long time. .
This time she was accompanied by the Xuanbing Sage Xia Yanbing, who was responsible for taking care of her safety.
Tang Xie was riding on a snow-white unicorn. He led six warriors and waited quietly in front of the city gate for Mo Wuhen's arrival.
Black Ice Sage Xia Yanbing rode to the front of the team. He looked at Tang Lie with cold pride.
Tang Lie smiled calmly and said: "Pu Mansion Guard Cuiyu was ordered to come to greet the special envoy and his party."
Xia Yan said coldly: "Isn't your master here?"
Tang Lie couldn't help but feel angry. Who does this cold, arrogant and rude guy think he is? He said coldly: "Master Pu is waiting at the post house."
Although Mo Wuhen was in the carriage, she could clearly hear what was happening outside. She knew Xia Yanbing's temperament best and said softly: "Mr. Xia, let's go see Mr. Pu."
Tang Lie walked around Xia Yanbing, rode his horse to the front of the car, and said softly, "Did the journey go well for the special envoy?"
Mo Wuhen felt strange when she heard his last name was Mo Ben. At this moment, she opened the curtain and looked out through the gap. When she saw Tang Lie's face, her heart was shaken. The man's skin color was clearly poisonous. Her own unique poison. A terrifying name appeared in her mind, 'Tang Lie.'. This Tang Lie actually lingered in the imperial capital of Xuanwu Kingdom. She put down the car curtain with a pale face. After a long time, she said: " Guard Mo, please lead the way."
The carriage started moving again. But Mo Wuhen's heart could never calm down for a moment. Judging from Tang Lie's performance just now, he should not have recovered his memory. He is now just the Cuttlefish guard of Pu Mansion. A man who doesn't even know who he is. Poor guy who knows.
Mo Wuhen quietly opened the car curtain and silently observed Tang Lie's back through the gap. His back was straight and heroic. Mo Wuhen shivered for no reason. Why did he choose the surname Mo? Could it be that in his heart he was not completely Forgetting the past and not forgetting her hatred for herself, Mo Wuhen quietly made up her mind almost instantly. No matter what the outcome of this meeting was, she would kill Tang Lie and would never allow him to continue living in this world. .
Mo Wuhen and Pu Longqi were talking in the meeting hall of the post house. Tang Lie stood quietly in front of the meeting hall door. Xuan Bing Sage Xia Yanbing walked slowly in the courtyard, looking at Tang Lie from time to time with cold eyes.
Tang Lie couldn't help but said, "Has anyone told you that it's rude to look at someone like this?"
Xia Yanbing slowly shook his head and said, "No living person dares to say this in front of me."
Tang Lie said coldly: "People who are rude often have short lives."
Xia Yanbing glared at Tang Lie. Wherever he looked, a cloud of mist rose due to the sharp drop in temperature.
A faint smile appeared on Tang Lie's face. The energy in his body was stimulated. Xia Yanbing's cold air encountered the invisible armor around him and could not penetrate at all. Tang Lie whispered: "It's great to have friends from far away. Did Mr. Xia come all the way here to make himself uncomfortable?"
There was a soft knock on the door behind him. However, Pu Longqi and Mo Wuhen came out one after another. Pu Longqi nodded to Tang Lie and said with a smile: "Squid, the safety of the special envoy these two days will be left to you."
Xuanbing Sage Xia Yanbing felt unhappy when he heard this. He said coldly: "We will naturally take care of the safety of the special envoy. Lord Pu, don't worry."
Mo Wuhen scolded softly: "How can Mr. Xia be so rude? Mr. Pu means well. I have already agreed."
Xia Yanbing didn't know that Mo Wuhen had other thoughts in his mind. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he couldn't break out in this situation. He could only glare at Tang Lie bitterly and move aside.
The next few days passed in peace. Mo Wuhen was conducting negotiations in an orderly manner in the imperial capital. Tang Lie followed Pu Longqi's instructions and guarded Mo Wuhen at all times. This naturally attracted a lot of blank looks from Xia Yanbing. However, because of Mo Wuhen's restraint, Xia Yanbing did not dare to get too angry. For some unknown reason, Xia Yanbing felt an unspeakable resentment towards Tang Lie. Every time she looked at Tang Lie, her eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Tang Lie was aware of Xia Yanbing's dissatisfaction with him from the beginning. Every time he encountered his provocative eyes, he always avoided it. Because of Pu Longqi, he did not want to have a head-on conflict with Xia Yanbing.
Xia Yanbing was obviously deliberately making things difficult for Tang Lie. Every night, Tang Lie was asked to guard the outer courtyard and he was not allowed to enter the inner house.
The night was cold and windy. Tang Lie sat alone at the stone table in the courtyard. The cold wind blew by, reminding him that the winter of the year was coming. He looked back at the inner building. The lights were still shining. It seemed that Mo Wuhen was still uneasy. sleep.
The night wind brought Xia Yanbing's cold and ruthless voice: "Please stay alert and guard me carefully. If anything happens, I will kill your heads." He was reprimanding his warriors in a routine manner.
A disdainful smile appeared on the corner of Tang Lie's lips. If he hadn't been concerned about their status as special envoys, he would definitely have given Xia Yanbing some color. In total, they had stayed in the imperial capital for five days. According to the previously booked seven-day itinerary, there are also He was leaving in two days. Tang Lie said silently in his heart: "I'll bear with him for two more days."
Mo Wuhen was wearing a long black dress. She walked slowly into the front yard. Her long black hair spread like a waterfall over her sharp shoulders. Her beauty was unquestionable, but she carried an indescribable feeling. It's weird. It makes people feel distant from the bottom of their hearts.
Seeing Tang Lie and Mo Wuhen's stunningly beautiful face, there was a charming smile.
Only then did Tang Lie notice the suitcase in her hand. There was a faint fragrance in the air.
Mo Wuhen said softly: "Brother Mo has worked hard these days. I specially made a few side dishes. Please review them."
Tang Lie stood up in a hurry. He had no objection to this beautiful envoy Tang Lie. She always put down her identity and treated others kindly when getting along with him. Just the title of Big Brother Mo had brought her and Tang Lie closer invisibly. How could Tang Lie have thought that it was the woman in front of him who had harmed him to this point? Tang Lie said respectfully: "The special envoy is very polite. I have a duty. I appreciate your kindness."
Mo Wuhen smiled and said, "I don't know what Brother Mo's responsibilities are."
Tang Lie replied in a low voice: "Protect the special envoy."
Mo Wuhen smiled tenderly: "I'll have a few drinks with Brother Mo here. It just so happens that Brother Mo can protect me..." At this point, his pretty face turned slightly red, and he acted like a coy little daughter. It was really tempting.
Even with Tang Lie's determination, he couldn't help but feel shaken in his heart. He could no longer say any words of rejection.
Mo Wuhen put four carefully prepared dishes on the stone table. He also took out a pot of good wine. He filled the wine glasses in front of Tang Lie and himself. He took the first one and said, "Brother Mo, you have worked hard these past two days. .I will do it first as a token of respect." After saying that, he drank the wine in the cup and looked at Tang Lie with his beautiful eyes.
But she saw that Tang Lie also drank the wine in the cup. Fang was secretly happy. She knew that she had mixed the wine with chronic poison. Ever since she saw that Tang Lie was still alive in this world, she was filled with panic. She quietly made up her mind to kill him. Tang Lie died. Seeing that the return date was approaching, she finally decided to take action.
The wine has a lingering aroma and is dry and mellow in the mouth. Tang Lie couldn't help but praise: "Good wine."
Mo Wuhen smiled sweetly and said softly: "Since it is good wine, Brother Mo will have to drink a few more glasses."
Tang Lie nodded. He smelled a faint aroma between his nostrils. This aroma came from Mo Wuhen's delicate body. He suddenly felt his heartbeat speeding up. He hurriedly gathered his mind and changed the topic: "The special envoy's alliance this time. How's the talk going?"
Mo Wuhen said: "Actually, before I came to the imperial capital this time, the Queen had already decided to form an alliance with the Xuanwu Kingdom. The talks over the past few days were just a formality." Mo Wuhen did not hide anything about this matter. .She has decided to sign a contract with Xuanwu Kingdom tomorrow.
Tang Lie slowly placed the wine glass on the stone table and said, "In that case, I would like to congratulate the special envoy."
Mo Wuhen smiled and said: "There is nothing worthy of congratulations on this accomplished thing. But... I heard that the one who finally signed the contract with me was Prince Xuan Yuan or one of the eldest princesses."
Tang Lie said in astonishment: "Isn't the signing of the contract still undecided?" In his heart, he naturally hopes that this matter will end as soon as possible.
Mo Wuhen sighed and said: "I didn't expect the internal disputes in Xuanwu Kingdom to be so complicated. Forget it. It shouldn't be the turn of outsiders like us to get involved." She raised her wine glass again and had sex with Tang Lie. One cup.
At this time, Xia Yanbing walked over to the two of them. He glared at Tang Lie coldly. Then he came to Mo Wuhen and said, "Great Sage, tomorrow's schedule has been arranged. Do you want to take a look."
Mo Wuhen glanced at him dissatisfied and said coldly: "Brother Mo is not an outsider. Please take out the road map and let's go over it together."
Xia Yanbing nodded angrily. He took out the route map and put it on the stone table. He whispered: "According to the arrangements of the Xuanwu Kingdom, we will conclude an alliance at the Qiudong Mountain Hot Spring Palace tomorrow. I plan to go to the palace from this road. ."
A look of displeasure appeared on Mo Wuhen's face: "Alliance. The Xuanwu Kingdom has not told me who has formed an alliance with me. Is it possible that such a large country does not have a recognized leader?"
Xia Yanbing said angrily: "It doesn't matter if we don't conclude this alliance. They just want to use us to attack the resistance forces in Chuanyun City. I really don't understand why the Queen would do such a thing as making wedding clothes for others."
Mo Wuhen said angrily: "How bold. Who are you? How dare you slander the Queen behind her back."
Xia Yanbing's face turned red. Although his status was slightly lower than that of Mo Wuhen, he was still a well-known figure in the Hai Clan. It was really hard to live with his face when he was reprimanded so mercilessly in front of outsiders.
Tang Lie was already disgusted with him. Now that he saw him being reprimanded, he secretly gloated in his misfortune.
Mo Wuhen also realized that his tone was too strong. He said softly: "It's getting late. It's time for me to go back and rest. You two can discuss tomorrow's itinerary." He turned around and left his seat, leaving only Tang Lie and Xia Yanbing looked at each other at the table.
Xia Yanbing's anger was all turned on Tang Lie. He said coldly: "If it weren't for the sake of the great sage, I would chop you with a knife."
Tang Lie had been angry with him for a long time. Now when he saw him making provocative words, he could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. He started snapping at the case and said angrily: "Do you have what it takes?"
Xia Yanbing nodded slowly. A layer of white mist rose around him. The temperature within a two-foot radius dropped sharply. The wine on the table actually condensed into ice in an instant.
The energy in Tang Lie's body was stimulated. A layer of light blue armor enveloped his tiger body, blocking all the cold air coming from Xia Yanbing.
The two people's eyes met silently. Xia Yanbing slowly stretched out his right palm. Frost flowers formed in the space between him and Tang Lie with the movements of his right palm.
Tang Lie smiled calmly. He punched out with the same right fist. The two people's energy came into contact in the void first, and a low impact sound erupted. The frost flowers suddenly turned into slender ice mist, wrapping around Xia Yanbing's body. In the competition of energy, Tang Lie clearly had the upper hand.
Xia Yanbing's face turned livid. Just when he was about to take action, he saw Mo Wuhen leaving and returning. He stood quietly in front of the courtyard door and said coldly: "If you want to fight, you'd better go far away to avoid getting in the way. Until I rest..."
The next morning, a group of people escorted Mo Wuhen out of the north gate of the imperial capital and headed for the Qiudong Mountain Hot Spring Palace. After experiencing the unhappiness last night, Tang Lie and Xia Yanbing calmed down. Xia Yanbing had realized Tang Lie's strength. On top of himself, he deliberately kept a distance from Tang Lie and marched at the front of the team.
Tang Lie didn't bother to conflict with him. He simply ended up at the end of the team.
After entering Qiudong Mountain, the terrain began to become steeper. Although it was a flat winding mountain road, the horse's speed also slowed down because the angle was too steep.
Tang Lie couldn't help but secretly wonder. It was somewhat disrespectful that Xuanwu Kingdom chose to sign a contract with the Sea Clan envoy here. I wonder who had such an idea.
The team marched to the mountainside for a short adjustment and rest. In front of the platform where they rested was a high cliff called Qianren Cliff, which is one of the most famous scenery in Qiudong Mountain.
Mo Wuhen got off the car and came to the cliff. He looked up and saw the rising sun in the distance. The clouds were steaming and the clouds were bright. The sky was colorful and the scenery was so beautiful. Such scenery could not be seen at the bottom of the sea. Mo Wuhen couldn't help but walk forward.
Tang Lie and Xia Yanbing followed her two feet away, one on the left and the other on the right. Both of them knew that it was not the right time to disturb Mo Wuhen's exclusive tranquility.
An inexplicable sense of crisis quietly appeared in Tang Lie's heart. Although his memory of the past was lost, his sense of danger became more and more acute.
The morning glow reflected in Mo Wuhen's bright eyes like clear springs, creating mysterious and unpredictable images.
A white figure suddenly appeared from under the cliff like a ghost. Its broad wings blocked all the sunlight and morning glow.
Before Mo Wuhen had time to react, she saw seven dazzling rays of light shooting towards her vital parts. In fear, Mo Wuhen subconsciously raised his head back, barely avoiding the killer's shot into his eyes. Two arrows. But because everything happened suddenly, it was impossible for the body to avoid it.
When the killer appeared, Tang Lie's tiger body had already rushed forward. Before the arrow hit Mo Wuhen, he knocked Mo Wuhen aside with his shoulder. The energy quickly formed a blue armor around his body. However, Unexpectedly, the tip of the feather arrow suddenly exploded after contacting the invisible armor. Black smoke filled the entire cliff.
The killer flapped his wings. His body instantly flew to a height of more than ten meters in the air. He shot out twelve more feather arrows. This time, the target was not Mo Wuhen. Instead, they hit the ground behind Mo Wuhen and Tang Lie. .The feather arrow carrying the smoke bomb exploded after hitting the rock. The whole world fell into a white fog in the blink of an eye.
Tang Lie accidentally inhaled several puffs of black smoke. He felt extremely fishy. He immediately realized that the smoke was poisonous. He hurriedly held his breath. He still felt dizzy.
In the haze, he could distinguish Mo Wuhen's figure. He strode to Mo Wuhen's side, wanting to cover her and move to a safe place.
The fog was getting thicker and thicker. I heard the voices of Xia Yanbing and the group of warriors, but I couldn't make peace with them.
The killer hovered freely in the air. He looked in the direction of Mo Wuhen and swooped down suddenly. He raised his sword with both hands and tried to split Mo Wuhen into two pieces with one strike.
Although Tang Lie's vision was blurry, he could sense the opponent's attack just by feeling. He took a step forward, got in front of Mo Wuhen, and used his long knife to hold the opponent's shocking blow.
A trace of surprise flashed through the killer's clear eyes. He never thought that there was such a powerful warrior beside Mo Wuhen. Even though it was just a confrontation, he had already clearly sensed that his power was about to fall behind. At that time, the group of warriors had already rushed into the thick fog and surrounded the center. He roared and shot thirteen arrows in Mo Wuhen's direction.
At this time, Tang Lie's breathing began to become rapid, and his heartbeat continued to accelerate. This was a sign of poisoning. He gritted his teeth and supported it. Using his feeling, he waved the long knife to knock down the arrows in the air one by one.
The expression in Mo Wuhen's beautiful eyes was extremely complicated. For her, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get rid of Tang Lie. After hesitating for a long time, she suddenly pulled out a short sword as black as ink, and suddenly inserted it into the back of Tang Lie's heart in front of her.
Along with the unspeakable pain, Tang Lie felt the cold edge of the sword in his body. He turned around in shock. In the mist, he could vaguely see Mo Wuhen's mysterious and hazy eyes.
The killer who had fled into the air opened his eyes in shock. It was hard for him to believe what he saw. Why would Mo Wuhen assassinate a person who was trying his best to protect him?
Looking at Tang Lie's shocked and stunned eyes, Mo Wuhen couldn't help but tremble in his heart. The dagger in his hand could no longer penetrate deeper.
Tang Lie suddenly grabbed her arm: "You..."
