Return of the Swallow

The rain was pouring down, and the woods in the mountains were dark. The dirt road under the hillside was turned into mud by the earth dragon. Huge dark clouds were pressing overhead, as if they were weighing on people's hearts, making the already anxious people even more anxious.

Pang Xiao rode a fast horse and led Huzi, four elite tiger guards and twenty Longxiang troops to rush towards the scene of the incident.

Huzi said anxiously: "Prince, please slow down, the princess will be fine!"

Pang Xiao's jaw was tense, his lips were pressed into a straight line, and his fists were clenched with distinct knuckles.

"Is the report accurate? Is it true that the princess was kidnapped into a cave and met with an earth dragon?"

Huzi swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth and said, "That's what I heard."

Pang Xiao punched hard, wishing he could kill himself.

He shouldn't have let Qin Yining take the risk in the first place. What treasure? Why is Qin Yining's life important? Not to mention the money, even if he exchanged his country with her, he would never exchange it!

If Qin Yining lost his life because of these external things, Pang Xiao really wanted to die to apologize!

The group of people galloped on their horses and soon arrived at the location mentioned in the report.

There was a lot of water on the road that had been soaked by the heavy rain, and it was no longer possible to detect the previous footprints. At this time, outside the cave, a group of soldiers wearing silver uniforms of the Longxiang Army were digging with shovels.

Under a large yellow umbrella, Li Qitian, who was wearing dark blue uniform, stood with his hands behind his back. The eunuch Li Guanwen held an oil-paper umbrella upwind to protect Li Qitian from the wind and rain.

The sound of horse hooves from Pang Xiao and his group attracted Li Qitian's attention, and everyone looked up. Seeing that the people coming were Pang Xiao and his party, Li Qitian couldn't help but frown. When he met Pang Xiao's eyes, his pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy and fearful.

He is the emperor, why should he be afraid?

Li Qitian straightened his back again.

Pang Xiao's team was approaching at this time.

The dark clouds were strangled and let out a roar. Pang Xiao turned over and dismounted, and a string of water droplets flung out from the corner of his robe that was soaked by the heavy rain.

"Your Majesty."

Pang Xiao doesn't care about the mud;

He led everyone to kneel down and salute.

Li Qitian helped Pang Xiao up with both hands and said sadly: "I just arrived when I received a tip-off, saying that the Qin family took people to the capital and found a cave. When I went in to check, I happened to catch the earth dragon turning over."

This is what I said...

Is the princess a gopher? If you see a hole in the ground, go in and check it out? Your Majesty, I don’t even want to show my face!

Pang Xiao's expression remained unchanged, but Huzi, Jinghuwei and others behind him almost punched people.

Pang Xiao said in a deep voice: "After the earth dragon turned over, the relief materials were delayed. Many mountain bandits and road tyrants spawned in the desperate situation. The Qin family only arranged four guards and two maids on their way back to Beijing. If they encountered These people were forcibly kidnapped, and the consequences were disastrous."

The coercion around Pang Xiao seems to have turned into substance, and can transform into invisible big hands to pinch people's throats.

As an emperor, Li Qitian should not be afraid. But under Pang Xiao's serious gaze, his back couldn't help but straighten up.

He felt a little guilty, but a voice in his heart kept shouting, is it the king's land in the whole world, is it the king's ministers who are on the shore of the land, this world belongs to him, all the wealth belongs to him, and the lives of the ministers also belong to him .

Isn’t there a saying that goes well, if you want your ministers to die, they will have to die?

Qin Yining was just a woman. He asked Pang Xiao to die, but Pang Xiao didn't dare to die. Qin Yining was an accessory that belonged to Pang Xiao, and it didn't matter to him. Pang Xiao didn't have much affection for Qin Yining. When Qin Yining's family first came to Dazhou, they didn't just shout about beating and killing, and they would kill people--\u003e\u003e

Kidnapped and tortured to death?

Now that it's dead, it's time to get a new one. Pang Xiao is also a blessing in disguise.

Thinking of this, Li Qi became more calm and confident, and less guilty and embarrassed.

What's more, he wanted to ask Pang Xiao why Qin Yining suddenly returned to Beijing. Was it a real illness or a fake one? Was it because he secretly wanted to seize the treasure that it happened to be buried in a cave?

Li Qitian's heart turned over and over again, but time was only a matter of breaths.

At this time, Pang Xiao took Huzi and four elite tiger guards, found a shovel and went to dig. The twenty Long Xiang soldiers, seeing Pang Xiao acting like this, also looked for tools to help.

Li Qitian raised his voice and said: "Pang Xiao, come here and let them do these menial tasks."

Pang Xiao turned a deaf ear and kept moving his hands.

Li Guanwen saw that Pang Xiao had ignored the Holy One's words, and hurriedly came forward with an umbrella, holding up the paper umbrella to protect Pang Xiao from the rain, and said: "Your Majesty, the Holy One may have something to ask you, do you want to take a break? Let others do these menial tasks."

Pang Xiao stepped on the shovel, dug it into the soil, and said without raising his head: "Excuse me, sir, thank you for your kindness. However, saving people is like putting out fires. More people will have more strength. What can I say? , just wait until I rescue everyone."

Li Guanwen was stunned, looked at Pang Xiao's side face very complicatedly, and then turned back to Li Qitian.

Although Li Qitian didn't hear what Pang Xiao said, it was true that Pang Xiao refused to listen to his order and come to him.

Li Qitian had a sullen face and was about to reprimand when Li Guanwen said: "Your Majesty, the road is now muddy and the weather is wet and cold. Although your body is healthy, you cannot withstand this kind of torment. Why don't you go up and get in the car to rest and have a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up?" ?”

A gust of cool wind blew by, and Li Qitian shivered from the cold, and the back of his hands was also cold.

"Okay." Li Qitian calmly returned to the car first.

Pang Xiao saw Li Qitian leaving from the corner of his eye, and his clenched teeth did not relax at all.

Sister Yi, Sister Yi, where are you?

Is it buried here?

If it was really buried in a cave, wouldn't it be...

No, no, no, she won't die.

How could she die when she was so young?

He is digging hard now just to prove that she is not here!

"Your Majesty!"

At this moment, Huzi screamed in panic.

Pang Xiao was shocked and quickly dropped his shovel to take a look.

I saw a severed arm dug out from under the feet of Long Xiangjun who had started digging earlier. The arm was pale and dripping with blood...

It's a man's hand, not Qin Yining's.

But this doesn't make Pang Xiao relax.

After confirming that there was someone down there, Pang Xiao led everyone and dug like crazy. Use a shovel or even your hands.

The rain stopped.

The rain and sweat on the body were mixed with dust and mud, which made people very uncomfortable. Pang Xiao was shirtless like other men.

As the corpses were neatly stacked aside, Pang Xiao's face became more and more ugly and desperate, and Li Qitian became more and more angry.

"This is the Long Xiang army that I arranged to search for treasures! How could they all be lost here!"

Pang Xiao had a stern look on his face, "Your Majesty, I want to ask you, Your Majesty, why did the Long Xiang army you arranged kidnap my wife?"
