Chapter 067 That Long Sigh
"Old man, I have never heard of the witch. I wonder if the old man can tell me about the witch?" Zhuge Aoshuang raised his eyes slightly and looked at the old man with slightly lowered his eyes, as if he were going to be a wooden man, and asked indifferently.
The old man below still lowered his eyes and sighed tiredly, and the wrinkles on his face wrinkled into a flower with his slight sigh.
Zhuge Aoshuang always paid attention to his expression and saw the wrinkles on his face, and a scene at the bottom of the cliff flashed in his mind.
Looking at the wrinkles on the old man's face, I felt particularly soft.
"Is the girl here to find the swarian?"
"Girl, I have been waiting here for 60 years and have been looking for 60 years. No one jumps or falls from above, no one can survive.
"I don't have many days to live. People are about to die, and their words are also good. Girl, don't wait. No one will live in such a high place. The wall of this cliff is as smooth as a mirror, and even the grass will not grow. There is no place for people to climb. Even if a man with strong martial arts falls, he will only die.
Yes, this person is the old man who talked to her at the bottom of the cliff before.
At that time, the old man said such words to her, and now she looked at the kind old man and frowned gently.
Who is this person?
What are you here for today?
At such an old age, one person walked to the Jinluan Hall, and the old man stood on the Jinluan Hall without any fear.
"The old man came here to send something. Aunt...Your Majesty opened it and you will know." After saying that, the old man sighed slightly, and the wrinkles on his face rose again, distorting an old face.
The little eunuch next to him took a red package from the old man and presented it to Zhuge Aoshuang.
Zhuge Aoshuang glanced at it and whispered, "Open it."
The little eunuch opened it according to his words, revealing a thin brochure and a jasper finger.
The jasper's fingers are crystal clear, and the inside is also printed with crystal snowflakes like the interior of the jasper soul flute. It is obviously a still thing, but it seems to have water light flowing in it, which is amazingly beautiful.
The small object actually made the ministers below look straight.
This is a valuable treasure. They have never seen this kind of jade!
Zhuge Aoshuang just glanced faintly and said nothing, quietly waiting for the old man to speak.
There was silence in the Jinluan Hall, and only the old man kept sighing.
With a sound, he was haggard and sad, as if he sighed the pain of his life.
For a long time, the old man stood up on crutches and looked up at the high Zhuge Aoshuang for the first time, but he was stunned when he hit the dark pupil of Zhuge Aoshuang. Then he sighed and shook his head and said, "After waiting for so long, the man didn't wait, but he waited for you."
The old man's inexplicable words made everyone in the Jinluan Hall dumbfounded. They didn't know what the old man was talking about.
"Pretell to be crazy and stupid! To this point of boldness, how dare you be presumptuous in front of your majesty today!" An official suddenly stood up in the Jinluan Hall and shouted that he was about to take down the old man.
The old man stood still, just shook his head and sighed, saying, "Ten years of hard study, you are in vain."
The man suffocated when he heard the words and stretched out his hand to punch the old man fiercely.
Zhuge Aoshuang swept the corners of his eyes, and the little eunuch standing beside her hurried forward to stop the official's movement.
"Take off his top and wear the flower and retreat." Zhuge Aoshuang stood up and walked straight back to the Yangxin Hall regardless of everyone's disenment.
The people behind them were tongue-tied, but they watched the official speaking at the exit gloating.
The old man shook his head and still sighed and muttered, "It's in vain to be a reader... It's in vain to be a reader..."
The official who was taken off by the Inner Guard and wore a flower collar softened his knees and cried for his majesty's words of mercy, but in a blink of an eye, the tall man was no longer there.
No matter how he shouted, he didn't pay attention to him.
After that, someone found evidence that he embezzled the people, protected the people, and bullied the people in this official's house.
Later, everyone learned that what this person had done had actually been found out by His Majesty, but he had not found the right time to remove his official position.
Why do you say this? Because when some officials said goodbye to the official who took off the flower collar, they knew that there was a reason why he would jump out and point at the old man and cursed.
That is, after the old man's red package was presented, Zhuge Aoshuang's eyes always swept over him intentionally or unintentionally, and he jumped out with a guilty heart.
Therefore, there was a matter of taking off the top of the flower.
The ministers were even more afraid of the emperor named Murong Jin.
The old man who always sighed was led out of the palace by the palace guards and asked to hire him a comfortable carriage.
The old man lowered his head, sat in the carriage, closed his eyes, and sighed.
"Old man, where are you going?" The driver of the carriage carefully asked the old man in the carriage.
In the view of the coachman, the people in the carriage are personally escorted by the guards in the palace, and they must be very powerful.
"Where to go?" The old man sighed for a long time and closed his eyes, but he was already dozing off.
The coachman couldn't hear his answer for a while, so he was so embarrassed that he had to ask again.
"Let's hang our hearts." The old man's voice reached the coachman's ears, and the coachman was overjoyed, and he waved his whip in the direction of the cliff.
The back of the carriage followed the two people slowly.
The two people are dressed in black, covered with black cloth on their faces, and can't see their faces clearly.
They didn't ride horses or take a car. They just followed the carriage with two legs, and they didn't fall behind at all. Along the way, the two were even talking in secret.
The absolute cliff was on the border of Baiguo. The two followed the carriage for three days before they saw the carriage stopped on the cliff.
The coachman stopped doubtfully and watched the old man walk on the cliff tremblingly with his eyes half open and half closed, and his fear rose infinitely.
He took a step forward, grasped the old man's sleeve tightly, blocked the old man's way forward, and asked eagerly, "Old man...old man...what are you?"
The cliff can't be seen to the end. Looking at the old man's sad face, it is not difficult for the driver to imagine what the old man wants to do.
"You go." The old man put his crutch on the ground twice. Although his voice was still hoarse, it suddenly became sharp: "Let you live."
The driver looked at the light bursting in the old man's originally cloudy eyes, and his whole body was awe-inspiring. He nodded and ran away.
The driver was like a rabbit, and disappeared on the road three or two times.
The old man stared and said that his three souls were scared by the driver. Unexpectedly, he didn't even want the gorgeous and comfortable carriage and ran down on foot.
After the driver left, the old man half opened his eyes and half closed his eyes, walked to the top of the cliff against the strong wind, threw away his crutches and jumped down.
The two people behind him were shocked and appeared directly. They pulled out the long iron chain they carried with them and wrapped them around the waist of the old man who fell down.
The fast-falling old man paused, pulled an arc at the corners of his mouth, and then sighed a long sigh and said in a hoarse voice, "Who are you? Why save the old man?"
The two black guards looked at each other and saw the worries in their eyes.
"Sakura, Your Majesty just asked us to follow him and didn't let us save him! I let go."
"Bingchang, you can't let go of this at will. Your Majesty asked us to follow him and must see something. If this old man dies, isn't there no evidence? If Your Majesty wants to check something, there will be no result.
The old man was hung in mid-air by a chain, and the two black guards were hung in the air at all. The old man who was about to be cerebrally congested by the iron chain transmitted the sound.
The air seems to be still at this moment.
As long as the two black guards let go a little, the old man will fall off the cliff and die.
Finally, after about a cup of tea, the old man was dragged to the cliff by two black guards and taken to the palace and the imperial study.
Zhuge Aoshuang sat in the imperial study, holding his forehead with one hand. When he saw the arrival of the old man, he was not surprised at all, but smiled softly: "Old man, you will live in the palace in the future."
Her smile seems soft, but it can't hide the indifference in her eyes.
What she said did not give the old man any chance to refuse at all.
The old man did not speak and sighed for a long time. His back actually fell down in an instant, and then nodded and was taken to the guest room by the two close maids of honor by Zhuge Aoshuang.
In the imperial study, there are only two black guards left, and three people, Zhuge Aoshuang.
Zhuge Aoshuang sat behind the desk, looked at the two black guards and asked faintly, "Do you think he can do martial arts?" But do you think there is anything different about him?
The two guards in black thought for a long time, shook their heads and said, "I don't know."
Zhuge Aoshuang smiled, grinded in front of the two black guards, took the rice paper, and drew briskly.
Two black guards stood aside and lowered their heads and dared not speak. They didn't know why their new emperor suddenly painted in front of them.
About half a column of incense passed, and they saw a man with snow robe and ink hair printed on the blank rice paper.
The man was dressed in a snow robe and leaned lazily in the carriage. His long eyebrows flew obliquely into his temples. His black eyes were slightly narrowed, his nose was high, and his eyes were as clear as the holy water on Tianshan Mountain. He was like a god who did not know the fireworks in the world.
Although he was in the painting, the two black guards knelt down at the moment when Zhuge Aoshuang erected the painting and shouted loudly, "See you!"
