Mountains and Seas

Chapter 386: Danger

Views:

Zhu Ning'er, Zhu Li's younger sister.

He is smart but greedy and lazy, and has never practiced martial arts.

To Chuoli, her roar was like a kitten baring its teeth in front of a tiger. It had no deterrent effect at all.

In this situation, how could Emperor Taizu of Liao, a heroic figure in history, be deterred by her intimidation

The reason he came to visit Zhu Ning'er was because of a bet; in order to give Qian Muran an image of a man of his word, he kept his promise and attended the meeting tonight.

Otherwise, he thought, there was no need to come here at all; the first place in the Jixin Festival would definitely be his, and Zhu Ning'er, as the "final reward" of the conference, would also be his sooner or later, so why should he be in a hurry

But during today's visit, Zhu Ning'er's behavior of crying, making a fuss and threatening to hang herself aroused suspicion among the group.

After the visit, Qian Muran told him that there must be something fishy in Zhu Ning'er's tent; it was possible that she was planning to escape from Nabo.

Chuolizhi had had intentions towards Qian Muran for a long time, and seeing that the other party was speaking so seriously, he had to come and take a look, even if it was just for show to win the other party's favor; that's why he made an excuse to send Zhu Ning'er back to the tent and followed her all the way to investigate.

If Zhu Ning'er, this Han Chinese girl, really had ulterior motives, then he wouldn't mind at all and would immediately make her his woman.

He thought that as long as he and Zhu Ning'er had settled the matter, then the crouching tiger among the Han people in the northern border would not deal with him, even if he did not help him.

Of course, this is just Chuli's wishful thinking.

Unfortunately, both he and many Khitan nobles were wrong about one thing; Zhu Li came from later generations and was very dissatisfied with the current bad habits.

If Zhu Ning'er met with misfortune, although Zhu Li would not abuse his power for personal gain and launch a war indiscriminately, he would also find ways to make the Khitan race disappear forever from the world.

Outside the door, Chuoli simply bypassed Zhu Ning'er and took two or three steps to the door curtain of the big tent. He turned his head provocatively, looked at Zhu Ning'er with a sneer, and then reached out to lift the door curtain of the big tent.

But at this moment, a big hand suddenly stretched out from the dark tent. The hand seemed to want to grab his chest at first; then it seemed to feel something was wrong and went straight to pinch his neck.

The big hand was extremely swift, as fast as thunder, as powerful as a mountain bombardment, and as strange as an evil spirit.

As soon as it appeared, it turned into an unparalleled sharp eagle claw that could break the sky, and rushed towards Chuolizhi and grabbed him.

"who?"

In fear, Chueli just let out a loud shout.

It has to be said that anyone who can become a king in history is definitely not a simple person.

Faced with the sudden grab, Chueli knew at a glance that he could not resist at all. In desperation, he shouted loudly.

Rather than shouting at the people in the tent, it would be more accurate to say that he wanted to alert the patrolling guards around Nabo by shouting loudly; of course, the most important thing was to notify the four brave generals guarding the place.

Chu Lizhi's sound was rapid and terrified, like thunderclapping out of the blue, resounding throughout the night sky.

Juqu Mengxun, who was on duty, suddenly heard the shout and his face immediately darkened. He thought for a moment and immediately instructed a guard, "Go and inform Xianwen and Dujian that something happened in the central tent. I'll go over and take a look first."

"Yes." The guard did not dare to delay. After hearing that, he immediately turned around and ran towards the tent of Tuoba Yi, Gao Gao and others.

After giving instructions to the guards, the one-armed Juqu Mengxun waved his hand and immediately signaled all the patrol guards of the Pi Shi Army to gather in the direction of the central tent.

Meng Taiji, Yi Jiangnan and Li Gufeng, who were hiding in the dark, also heard the loud shout.

Although the three people were not in the same place, they all thought to themselves that something was wrong. Then, they saw three smoke-like figures in the Shilunababo, quickly sneaking towards the center of the big tent.

No matter what happened, that place was of utmost importance to the three of them.

Because the people hiding there now are the biggest leader of Heshuo and two delicate young ladies. If something happens, it will surely shock the entire Tang Dynasty. As they are under the command of these three people, how can they be negligent

Zhu Li was also not expecting Chulizhi's loud shout.

With his cultivation level at the peak of the Profound Realm, he actually allowed the other party to get a gap and shout out. This was definitely a fatal omission. It was no wonder that Zhu Li miscalculated, because the heights of the two were not equal at all.

Chuoli was only nine feet tall, while Zhu Li was only seven feet tall. The other person was more than half a meter taller than Zhu Li.

Zhu Li was in the dark, relying on his senses, and before the door curtain was opened, he had already reached out to strangle the other person's neck.

When she lifted the door curtain to face the moonlight, she suddenly saw the other person's height, and Zhu Li realized that she couldn't reach him at all.

When he adjusted his body shape and took a step forward in time, he gave the opponent a moment to catch his breath.

At this moment, Chuli let out a loud shout, turning the originally sure situation into a fatal crisis.

In shock and anger, Zhu Li suddenly grabbed the other party's neck before the other party finished shouting, and then pulled hard, dragging the old bear-like Chu Lizhi into the big tent.

Although he didn't know who the person in the darkness was, Chuolizhi was very sure that the other party was definitely not a friend; since he was an enemy, once he fell into his hands, the consequences would be disastrous.

A thought came to his mind, and he followed Zhu Li's pull and suddenly threw a punch, as fast as a meteorite, as fierce as a tiger, and hit Zhu Li's face with extreme ferocity.

The punch was like a mountain-shattering blow, extremely violent; if Zhu Li had really been hit by such a punch, not only would his nose have been smashed, but even his head would have been shattered.

Unfortunately, although Chuoli was very fierce, he chose the wrong target.

No matter what, he was just a top-level warrior. How could he be a match for Zhu Li from the Tianxuan Realm

The other party's shout put him and others in a sudden danger. Zhu Li was extremely angry. His eyes were blurred and his free left hand suddenly swung out.

In the darkness, only a hazy fist shadow was seen, like a reflection on a lake, which came first and suddenly met the arm that was struck out by Chuolizhi.

"Click"

There was a crisp sound, and then the girl who was dragged in Zhu Li's hand frowned suddenly, and the corners of her eyes twitched constantly. Even the tears in the corners of her eyes could not help but flow down, but she just couldn't make a sound.

Obviously, just now, the forearm with which he punched was instantly broken by Zhu Li.

It is true that Chuoli is a natural born genius, but Zhu Li is after all one major realm higher than him; what's more, a duel of fists is a test of speed and strength, and these two are what Zhu Li is best at. If Chuoli fights head-on, wouldn't he be courting death

Zhu Li's face turned grim as he broke the opponent's forearm with one punch.

Then, without waiting for Chuo Lizhi to recover from the pain of broken arm, Zhu Li attacked again as fast as the wind. In an instant, with another "click", Chuo Lizhi's other arm was broken again.

The pain of broken arm almost made Chuo Lizhi faint, but at this moment, Zhu Li still refused to give up. Another "click" sound was heard, and Chuo Lizhi, who was nine feet tall, suddenly became shorter.

It turned out that one of his calves was also broken by Zhu Li's kick.

As the saying goes, "A son pays for his father's debts." It was Chuolizhi's mother who captured Zhu Ning'er, which forced Zhu Li and others into such a dangerous situation.

It would be fine if it was just him, but now there are several people from Zhu Li's side in the entire Shilunabha, so how could Zhu Li not be angry.

Chuoli's limbs were broken in half by Zhu Li, who then pushed him hard and threw him to the ground with a "thump".

"Ah, ah..."

As soon as he fell to the ground, Chuolizhi let out a heart-wrenching howl.

The pain of broken bones was heart-wrenching, how could he hold back from howling? A hero is also a human being, he would scream when in pain.

"Brother, are you really here, wuwu." At this time, Zhu Ning'er, who was following behind Chuoli, rushed in.

With the help of the moonlight through the gap in the door curtain, she saw Zhu Li at a glance. Without saying a word, she threw herself into her brother's arms and started crying.

She had indeed experienced a lot that night, and seeing her brother now, how could she restrain herself

She was originally staying happily at home, waiting for her elder brother to come and take her home; but suddenly a group of unwelcome guests came and insisted on seeing her regardless of whether she was willing or not.

That group of evil people were actually planning to break into her residence, which really gave her a lot of trouble.

She thought that if those people stayed in this big tent and happened to meet her elder brother who came to pick her up, it would be disastrous.

In desperation, the little girl could only fight with the other party, using both wits and courage and outlawry to prevent the other party from entering this place; now that the clouds and fog have finally dissipated, how could she not be afraid.

Holding his sister in his arms, Zhu Li said gently, "Ning'er, don't be afraid. Leave the rest to me, big brother. As long as I am still alive, no one can touch a hair on your head."

"Yeah, yeah, eldest brother is the best." Zhu Ning'er said with joy without even wiping away her tears.

"Ning'er, don't be afraid, sister is here to protect you." At this moment, Wang Yueyao also came out, looked at Zhu Ning'er with a smile on her face, and comforted her in a gentle voice.

Just as Zhu Li flew out, she was hiding in the dark. The first thing she thought of was not who the visitor was, but to tidy up her clothes. It was not until this moment that she had time to think.

"Ah, Sister Yueyao, you are here too. I heard from my eldest brother that you went to Sichuan to learn skills. How come you are here?" Zhu Ning'er was even happier to see Wang Yueyao, and she started chattering as soon as she opened her mouth.

Wang Yueyao had no choice but to comfort Zhu Li's sister.

In fact, both Zhu Li and Wang Yueyao knew that they were now in a dangerous situation, but they could not let Zhu Ning'er know about this situation, so as to prevent her from blaming herself and feeling scared.

Just as Zhu Ning'er was chattering away, Zhu Li suddenly spoke up: "Ning'er, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it when we get back."

"Now, I have a few things to say. This is related to how we get out of here. You must remember them carefully."

"Haha, don't worry, big brother. When have I ever let you down?" When Zhu Ning'er saw that big brother had something to tell her, she immediately responded.

Looking at her sister's cheerful personality as always, Zhu Li couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

In fact, all of this was caused by him; as the saying goes, "He who schemes against others will be schemed against by others." In order to restrict Chuolizhi's growth, Zhu Li placed Yanmujin under house arrest.

But what he never expected was that Yanmujin could actually turn the tables under such circumstances; instead, he kidnapped his sister and returned to Beijing, which led to the current situation.

Ning'er is at an angelic age, but she has to bear the danger of death at any time, which makes Zhu Li feel extremely guilty.

However, there were some things he had to say: "Wait, both of you try to talk less."

Zhu Li looked at Wang Yueyao and Zhu Ning'er and said solemnly, "All actions must follow my instructions. Do not hesitate and do it immediately."

"Also, no matter what you see or hear, don't make any noise. Do you understand?"

"Well, don't worry, brother. I'll remember it." Zhu Ning'er nodded seriously.

Wang Yueyao also looked at Zhu Li thoughtfully, and then nodded silently.

After instructing the two, Zhu Li looked at Chue Lizhi. At this time, Chue Lizhi had used great willpower to stop the pain; in the darkness, only his intermittent groans could be heard.

When Zhu Li and the other two turned to look at him, Chu Lizhi, who had already adapted to the darkness, said with bloodshot eyes and a hoarse accent: "You are not Khitan people; and you, you are not from my Khitan royal family, you are Zhu Ning'er's elder brother, Huaihua General Zhu Li?"

"Humph." Upon hearing this, Zhu Li glanced at him coldly and said indifferently: "You know too much."

"Ning'er, after you've lived here for a few days, go find something and shut his mouth." After looking at Chueli with contempt, Zhu Li turned around and looked at his sister and instructed.

"Okay, big brother; I'm going to teach this bad guy a lesson." Zhu Ning'er responded angrily with a flushed face.
