Chapter 492: The King's Heart
The fortress was silent at night, and the tents outside the walls were quiet, except for the soldiers on patrol and vigil and some bonfires.
Li Yuannan had a separate tent, and there was also a bonfire burning outside his tent, and he should not have kept vigil tonight, but he sat in the tent and couldn't sleep.
He stared at the endless starry sky, then his gaze fell to the tip of the fortress, and then landed little by little, and finally he couldn't help but scan the tents in his line of sight.
The stonemasons in those tents had already gone to bed early, but they didn't care about Wang Sancai, who went out with the king but didn't come back, was it because things didn't happen to them, and no one wanted to bother thinking about it?
He could not help but think of what the King had said to him this evening......
At that time, the fat man stood in front of him, blocking the sunset that was about to set, he patted his shoulder, his face was full of solemnity and apology: "Li Yuannan, I'm sorry to tell you, that distant relative of yours Li Jindong may not be able to go back this time, I will take your vacation in a few days, you can bring some money to his relatives." β
Li Jindong knew that Wang Sancai was dead.
It's not that he hasn't encountered this situation before, he doesn't know what Wang Sancai has encountered, and he doesn't know where Wang Sancai's body is buried, he just regrets that the person who woke up to his magical ability would have such a short life.
He would not question His Majesty the Great King, just as he had always been by the King's side.
It's just that he still can't help but feel. There seems to be something missing in my heart, is it ...... Is total allegiance and absolute obedience really right?
I can hide the movements of the Liang family from His Great Majesty, why can't I inquire about the whereabouts of the people I care about?
"Alas......" sighed heavily, looking at the hot air coming out of his mouth, Li Yuannan closed his eyes and took a deep breath, forced to lie down and fell asleep.
Inside the fortress, the king lived in a room of great luxury, his fat body pressing down a large chunk of the bed, and he rested his arms on the ceiling, but stared blankly at the ceiling. I don't know what I'm thinking.
"Your Majesty. As you expected, Huang Tian still took him away against your will. Suddenly, a voice rang out in the room.
The king was not surprised at this. said lightly: "Send someone to catch up." Kill him. Dispose of the corpse. β
"Are you going now? But Huang Tiancai had just taken him away not long ago. β
"Oh, then wait." The king took a slight breath, but his tone was uncertain: "He's just an ordinary person. Can't run far. β
"Or ......," the voice seemed to hear the king's hesitation: "I'll chase it myself?" Huang Tian, he can't find me. β
"No, he's an ordinary person and still uses you to do it personally? Later, send a dozen guys from the Qi refining period, and you can help me guard the fortress to prevent anyone from coming in." The king's voice was slightly tired.
The man was silent for a moment, but said, "In order to hide people's eyes, I didn't bring so many people with me this time, only five subordinates in the Qi refining period, and a personal guard in the condensation period...... He is my second son. β
"Send them all, there is a contemplation guy who won't let the five of them lose their way." The king said casually, but added: "It's just a chance to give 'Xiao Ran' a chance to exercise." β
"No problem." The man immediately agreed, but after a moment of silence, he changed his words and said, "Your Majesty, are you so prepared to continue to let Huang Tian go?" If I had been here, Bai Youchang would not have been taken away. β
"Fuck, you're talking a lot of bullshit! At the beginning, Lao Tzu was here, and Bai Youchang couldn't go! The king looked a little impatient: "Huang Tian can't leave here, he still needs you?" β
When the king taunted him, the man fell silent, and then he said, "Go out." β
The footsteps sounded two steps, but they stopped abruptly, and the man said again: "Your Majesty, you really can't continue to indulge the Yellow Sky, he will bring destruction to your kingdom." β
The king did not speak, and after a long time, he suddenly turned over and sat up, and said quietly: "No one here knows that you are by my side except me, so no one will know if I kill you." β
The man was anxious: "Your Majesty, I am for your kingdom......"
"Fuck the kingdom!!" The king was suddenly furious: "Lao Tzu has never cared! Any idea what I care about?! β
The man was silent for a moment, and said in a calm but affirmative tone, "Huang Tian." β
"Humph! You still know a little bit of physiognomy. The king dropped this, but suddenly sighed: "How do you understand my friendship with him?" It's easy for me to kill that kid, but I didn't kill him in front of Huang Tian because I can't see Huang Tian sad, you don't know him, and he can't see anything dark and unfair. β
ββ¦β¦ He is not a qualified politician. The man commented, "If you hadn't helped him clean up the mess, he would have died I don't know how many times." β
"He's so upright, so stupid! He always thinks that he is honest with others, and others will be honest with him, which is simply naΓ―ve! The king's tone became helpless: "His firstborn died in foolish righteousness." β
"Are you complimenting Huang Chong? He's always trying to please you. The man said again.
The king scoffed: "The one who thinks he is clever? That guy can only be used, do you think I will betray Huang Tian because of him? β
"No, you're not going to do anything to be sorry for the yellow sky." The man replied quietly.
"Wrong!" The king's tone was slightly self-deprecating: "I asked you to kill that kid to do something sorry for him." β
"Huang Tian won't know." The man emphasized.
"Do you think he doesn't understand me?" The king was a little melancholy at the moment: "He must know that I will send someone to hunt down that kid." β
"Your Majesty, you are too good to him." The man reminded, "I'm worried...... If one day, you ......"
"As long as I don't openly show Dacheng's strength, there is no if." The king interrupted him, slapped his mouth twice, and suddenly changed the subject: "Don't talk about this, let me ask you, the guy who almost killed Huang Tian's son is called 'Wang Sancai', right?" β
"Yes, Your Majesty, you are right." The man didn't talk any more, and continued as the king meant: "But since he entered the Dire Beast Mountain Range, there has been no news of him recently, and he seems to have evaporated from the world. β
"Where's over there? They don't have news either? The king asked casually.
The man was silent for a moment before he said slowly, "They refuse to reveal." β
"Refusal to disclose? Hmph, that means they know? The king was very disdainful and said: "When I get Li Guo done, I will personally visit the door and go to fuck the country's affairs, Huang Tian is willing to suffer dumb losses, Lao Tzu can't stand it!" β
ββ¦β¦ Your Majesty, do you want to kill Wang Sancai? The man was tentative.
The king did not answer directly: "What? β
The man paused for a moment before explaining, "The reason for the refusal to disclose it is probably because they want to prepare for recruiting Wang Sancai, you know, they have always had no resistance to strange things, we ...... I'm afraid we can't afford to mess with them. β
"It's just your opinion." The king said this, but fell into a long silence.
β¦β¦
As the morning sun fell, Wang San came out of a hole in the wilderness, which was the perch he had found last night.
Since he separated from Huang Tian, he took off his mask and changed into a new set of clothes, at least, judging from his appearance and clothing, he is no longer the Li Jindong he was before.
It is worth mentioning that Wang Sancai took a lot of effort to remove the mask, because he has been getting along with these unfamiliar people these days, Wang Sancai only dared to take it off for a short time at night when people were not paying attention, and did not dare to delay for too long, and had to re-put it on before falling asleep.
After wearing it for a long time, when he tore it off his face last night, he almost felt like he had torn off his face, and Wang Sancai still had palpitations, it seems that these masks must not be worn for a long time in the future.
In addition to taking a lot of effort to unmask him, Wang Sancai also spent a lot of effort all the way here, when he came, he was covered with a black hood from a long distance, and he didn't know anything about the surrounding environment near the fortress, even the forest he was taken by Huang Tian, he was not familiar with.
Thankfully, he still has those faction figures.
Even if the elite-level camp characters are not released by Wang Sancai, as long as Wang Sancai goes, they have the ability to remember. Blake and the five of them are still outside, and Wang Sancai's summoning quota is full, and he can't summon other faction characters, so the exchange of asking for directions can only be carried out in the game.
Usually after walking for a while, Wang Sancai has to close his eyes and enter the game to inquire and position himself, so he has just walked out of the forest in one night.
Looking back, the tip of the fortress in the distance was faintly visible, Wang Sancai shook his head helplessly, first took out the food from the warehouse, ate a breakfast that was not very rich, and then planned to close his eyes and ask the camp figures what route he should take next.
However, for safety reasons, Wang Sancai still focused on perceiving the surrounding situation before closing his eyes and entering the game, he didn't forget that Huang Tian confessed last night that the king would definitely send someone to hunt him down.
Coincidentally, it's okay not to perceive it, this perception, Wang Sancai suddenly looked in the direction of the forest he walked out of, and happened to see the six people who hurriedly ran out of it!
The point is that Wang Sancai was not far from the forest, he saw those six people, and those six people also saw him at a glance. (To be continued......)
