Chapter 64: First meeting with Sean, murderous intent in the mist

The moment Li Chengping walked forward and opened the iron gate.

A palm suddenly rushed out from inside, but he twisted his body and dodged it easily.

He stretched out his hand and slapped the opponent's arm, and the arm retracted immediately as if it had been electrocuted.

"Your Highness, are you okay?"

Yan Xiaoyi rushed forward, made sure that Li Chengping was not injured, and glared at the carriage fiercely.

"You'd better behave yourself, or you'll suffer more on the way!"

"Okay, I don't have anything to do either, you can go down first."

Li Chengping waved his hand and waited until Yan Xiaoyi left before he re-examined the carriage.

The process of driving this carriage is very complicated. Apart from the big iron gate, there is another obstacle on the other side.

There is a small hole on it, as thick as an arm, which is used by soldiers to put food in it on a daily basis.

There is also a hidden lock in the corner.

Putting the lunch box down, Li Chengping took out a strange-shaped key from his arms, inserted it into the secret lock and twisted it hard.

He exerted a little force with his arms and pulled the secret door open.

A disheveled man was sitting in the car, his arms, hands and feet were all tied with chains, and he could only move slightly.

There was a bowl of rice in front of him, but it was already cold.

His ferocious eyes stared at Li Chengping, like a beast trapped in a cage.

"You are Sean, and you don't look anything special." Li Chengping looked calm.

When he was browsing books before, he saw a lot of records about Sean.

The book comments that Northern Qi, after losing Sean, was like a tiger without its teeth.

This shows how important this person is to Northern Qi!

"You're the unpopular third prince. Ha, time flies. I was thinking of assassinating you back then, but now you've grown up so much!"

A deep voice came out of Sean's mouth.

Li Chengping was shocked, but his expression remained calm: "Unfortunately, you will never have another chance."

As he spoke, he opened the food box beside him and a tempting aroma wafted out.

Looking at the delicious food with good color, aroma and taste, Sean's throat moved subconsciously. He hadn't eaten such food for many years since he was arrested by the Supervisory Office.

"Eat it, this is for you."

Li Chengping pushed the food in front of Sean.

When he saw the two arms locked with chains, he finally reacted, took out a bunch of keys from his arms and released the arms.

Sean's eyes widened, staring at the key in Li Chengping's hand, his aura rising and falling slightly.

Putting the key in his arms, Li Chengping glanced at Sean.

"Since I dare to take out the things in front of you, I am not afraid that you will snatch them away. If you don't believe me, you can come and try."

Looking at Li Chengping's calm expression, Sean hesitated for a moment, but still picked up the chicken leg from the food box and stuffed it into his mouth.

Li Chengping did not disturb him and sat aside waiting quietly.

He locked his arms with chains again until Sean finished eating.

Sean still had an indifferent expression on his face: "Tell me, what do you want to know? I may not tell you!"

Why are you asking if I don’t tell you?
The corners of Li Chengping's mouth twitched twice, and before leaving, he looked at Sean deeply.

"Be careful, there are many people who don't want you to return alive."

Sean was stunned and wanted to ask something, but Li Chengping didn't give him the chance. He locked the two doors and left.

The carriage fell into darkness again.

Sean's mind was reverberating with what Li Chengping had just said, and the figure that appeared beside the carriage last night could not help but emerge in his mind.

He was a little confused for a moment about who was human and who was a ghost in this world.

……

the next day.

The team set out again and arrived at the border smoothly.

The city garrison came to greet him, but Li Chengping did not stay. He went straight through the city and headed straight towards Northern Qi.

As they continued to move forward, the weather ahead became increasingly colder, casting a gloom over everyone's hearts.

"Everyone, work harder. There is Wudu River ahead. Once we cross this river, we will be close to Qi State!"

Li Chengping shouted loudly, and the low morale was awakened, and the speed of advancement increased a lot.

Soon, the team arrived at the river.

There were strange mountains and rocks on both sides, and huge peaks standing in rows. The river in front was rushing, but there was not a single ship on the water.

"Your Highness, what should we do? Do we still have to cut down trees to build ships?"

Yan Xiaoyi frowned.

If that's the case, it would be a waste of time.

Li Chengping did not speak, but stood quietly by the river.

The river was flowing rapidly, and the air was bitingly cold, forming a thin layer of mist that made it impossible to see the situation on the other side of the river.

At this time.

Loud singing was heard in the mist, and a man in a black robe and a conical hat came over by boat.

"My dear officials, would you like to take a boat?"

The boatman started shouting before they even reached the shore.

Yan Xiaoyi's eyes lit up: "Not bad, can your boat accommodate so many of us?"

"Hey, whether it can be loaded or not, you will know when you get on the boat."

The boatman grinned, and seeing that the men were still hesitant, he continued to persuade them.

"My dear officers, I am the only one who rides a boat within ten miles of here. They were all scared away during the war a while ago. If you don't take a boat, you will have no chance!"

Yan Xiaoyi did not answer and turned to look at Li Chengping.

"Your Highness, do you think we should sit down?"

Li Chengping nodded.

Under the arrangement, the soldiers boarded the ship in an orderly manner. For safety reasons, Li Chengping and others also got off the carriage and boarded the ship on foot.

But when it came to Sean, everyone was a little confused.

The carriage that held Sean was specially made and was very heavy, and the ship in front of them could not bear it at all.

"Hey, are you guys going to leave or not? There's nothing special about this carriage. Can't you just let people get out of it?"

The boatman urged.

Yan Xiaoyi felt a little embarrassed and subconsciously looked towards Li Chengping.

"Go ahead and bring the person here."

Li Chengping took out a bunch of keys from his arms and threw it away.

Yan Xiaoyi went to the carriage and fiddled with it, and soon Sean came on board with handcuffs and shackles.

The boatman took a glance, rowed the boat, and slowly headed towards the other side.

As the ship arrived at the center.

The mist on the river surface was getting thicker and thicker, even blocking everyone's sight.

"Boatman, in such a thick fog, can you see the road ahead clearly?" Fan Xian asked.

The boatman did not answer. He lowered his head and rowed the boat expressionlessly, but his frequency increased a lot.

Suddenly, several flying knives shot out from the fog.

Several soldiers were unable to dodge and were stabbed in the throat and died on the spot.

Seeing that the body was about to fall into the river, Li Mu was quick to pick up a bamboo pole and pull the person out of the water.

Blood mixed with mist filled the air, and the invisible murderous intent made one's hair stand on end.

"Take down the boatman!"

At Li Chengping's command, Yan Xiaoyi took the lead.

Just as he was about to succeed, the boatman stomped his foot suddenly, and the wooden board flew up and shot directly towards Yan Xiaoyi.

A long sword flew out from below and fell into his hand.

The cold blade was unsheathed and stabbed directly at Sean.

"stop!"

Fan Xian was startled and stepped forward, wanting to force the boatman back with one punch.

Unexpectedly, the boatman swept the sword in his hand, knocked Fan Xian away, and continued to rush towards Sean.

"Master Xiao Fan!"
