Chapter 23 Don’t Scream at Me

The strong man stood up excitedly, "Great! It's the king, we are saved!"

The people behind him shouted along with him: "Great! It's the king! We are saved!"

"Great! It's the king! We are saved!"

Accompanied by the shouts of the crowd, a man appeared in front of Shen Xun, surrounded by his subordinates.

He was wearing a golden crown, a red cloak, and a sword at his waist. If he was not still in the mountain stronghold council hall, Shen Xun would almost think that he had traveled through time.

Um……

Why does the person in front of her look so familiar to her?

While she was thinking, the man spoke, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into Longao Mountain!"

Shen Xun subconsciously replied: "I am your mother."

The man's face changed and he said angrily: "You are my mother? I am still your father!"

Shen Xun: “…”

Brat!

Qi Yunzhou pulled Qi Yunxi to hide behind the crowd and whispered to her, "Sister, do you think mother will beat up that brat Yun Zheng?"

Qi Yunxi crossed his arms and watched the fun: "Sure!"

This brat, relying on his youth, has played many pranks on them. Now that his mother is back, let's see how he'll teach him a lesson!

Zhong Danyue on the side: "..."

Is it really okay to cheat your brother like this?

"Okay, you two brothers, stop watching the fun and come with me to help."

King Hu took the brother and sister, one in each hand, and dragged them away.

"Yue girl, Hui Niang, both of you come here too."

Zhong Danyue followed and asked, "Your Highness, what are we going to do?"

"Make some small things," King Hu sighed, "I'm afraid the mother and son will fight. It's like a flood that washed away the Dragon King Temple. Family members don't recognize each other anymore!"

"If the harmony is damaged, it will not be beautiful."

"In order to prevent them from both getting hurt, I, an old man, will do some hard work and get some medicine to calm them down."

Qi Yunzhou exposed him mercilessly, "Uncle, you are holding a grudge against Yun Zheng for burning your beard with fire when you were little!"

Prince Hu stroked his beard and said hypocritically, "How could that be? As an elder, how could I bother with that kid Yun Zheng?"

But he turned around and told Qi Jingcheng, "Son, double the dosage."

Everyone: “…”

As Qi Yunzhou and the other two expected, Shen Xun took action.

But Shen Yunzheng showed no fear, and even closed his eyes when Shen Xun was about to catch him.

Of course, this is not fear, but...

Two cold arrows whizzed towards him, and Shen Xun dodged sideways. Unexpectedly, on the high ground in the distance, there were more than a dozen men holding bows and arrows standing there.

Chen Xun frowned. There were people from Longao Village on their side. Was he going to shoot his own people to death as well?

Shen Yunzheng said calmly, "Let them go, otherwise, I don't mind dying with you!"

Others in the village also shouted: "Die together! Die together!"

There was no fear on their faces, but rather an excitement that "I can die with the king without regrets."

The corner of Shen Xun's mouth twitched. Could it be that Long Aozhai relied on this kind of desperate spirit to scare away the enemy?

--Indeed, anyone who cares about his own life will not confront Longao Village head-on.

Shen Xun made a "truce" gesture, "Boss of Longao Village, let's talk?"

Before Shen Yunzheng could say anything, the tied-up man shouted, "What boss? This is our King Long Aoshan!"

King Long Aoshan?

She is also the King of Wolf!

Wait, she thought, isn’t this the common outfit worn by the kings in cartoons?

Crown, cloak, sword... everything is complete.

"Okay, let's talk."

Shen Yunzheng was unexpectedly easy to talk to. He motioned for Shen Xun to sit down.

Shen Xun sat in the first seat without any hesitation. Shen Yunzheng was not angry. He snapped his fingers and someone brought a golden chair behind him.

"Real gold?"

Shen Xun asked.

Shen Yunzheng said proudly: "Of course, this king will not use fake goods."

No, why was he wasting time talking to this woman?

"Ahem," Shen Yunzheng cleared his throat. "You are exiled prisoners, right? Well, as long as you hand in..."

Shen Yunzheng glanced at the strong man, who hurriedly said, "My lord, these are the three who will pass through today. They have to pay 10,000 taels of silver."

"As long as you pay ten thousand taels of silver, I will let you go. How about that?"

"Not so good," Shen Xun leaned back on the tiger-skin chair, feeling more comfortable than Shen Yunzheng. "How about you take everyone with you and go to Youzhou with us?"

"Youzhou?!"

Shen Yunzheng jumped to his feet and asked excitedly, "Are you saying that you will be exiled to Youzhou?"

Shen Xun was puzzled, "Yeah, what's wrong?"

Shen Yunzheng didn't answer. He looked at the crowd, trying to find the person he was looking for.

Unfortunately, he searched several times but couldn't find the person he was looking for.

Shen Xun followed his gaze and saw Shen Yunzheng's reaction when he heard the word "Youzhou". She understood and knew that Shen Yunzheng was looking for Qi Yunzhou and Qi Yunxi.

But the two of them were not in the crowd, and even King Hu and others were not there.

Shen Xun questioned Xie Lan with his eyes, and Xie Lan replied with a look that said "he doesn't know either."

He was only focused on looking at Axun, who knew where they went?

Perhaps the prisoners exiled to Youzhou were divided into two teams, and the emperor's brothers and sisters were in the other team.

Shen Yunzheng collected his thoughts and looked at Shen Xun, chuckling softly, "Let's get back to the point. This king knows you're very strong, but there's no way you can defeat me here. Just surrender obediently, and maybe this king can give you a chance to live!"

Shen Xun crossed his legs and said, "How can we know if we don't try?"

Shen Yunzheng nodded, "You can try, but it seems like you... don't have a chance~"

As Shen Yunzheng finished speaking, Shen Xun smelled a faint scent of grass and wood. She covered her mouth and nose in time. Although she inhaled some of it, it was not a big deal and did not hinder her movements.

But it was different for the others. They lost their strength one after another and fell to the ground.

Shen Yunzheng said slowly: "What a pity, your companion has lost his ability to move, you don't have a chance to try~"

"When you come to Longao Mountain, you must coil up if you are a dragon, and lie down if you are a tiger!"

This is my territory, and I won’t tolerate your screams!

Shen Yunzheng waved his hand and said, "Men, tie them up for me!"

But just as the bandits were about to move forward, Shen Yunzheng smelled a strong floral scent.

Alarm bells rang in his mind, but before he could react, he fell to the ground.

The last time he closed his eyes, he saw King Hu standing upwind in an extremely arrogant manner, with his hands on his hips, directing Qi Yunzhou and others to fan the smoke downwards.

And... a middle finger pointing up.

Shen Yunzheng didn't know what that meant, but he felt inexplicably short of breath.

If he wasn't still young, he would have probably vomited blood!

Seeing Shen Yunzheng fall for his trick, Prince Hu put his hands on his hips and laughed wildly: "Hahaha! Brat! I finally got my revenge, hahaha!"

Chen Xun and others who were also unconscious below said: You are attacking indiscriminately!
