People are in the moon, The Sims

The feeling of looking directly at death is not very good. It is as if you are constantly examining yourself in the darkness. Everything in your past is constantly flashing before your eyes. In this process, you have to stick to your true heart. Truth is not a simple matter.

Perhaps this being who is like death itself did not take action against him because he still adhered to his true intention during this process.

Irlan couldn't help but remember that he had secretly gone to the temple on the top of the mountain where he was worshiped, took out some small things as sacrifices, and even said some of his innermost thoughts, some of which were inconvenient for others to hear. content...

At that time, I thought that the first-generation mountain old man had fallen into a permanent sleep, but now this legendary existence was standing in front of me at this moment.

But behind Yi Lan, Yan Zui knelt down directly, making a gesture of obedience and piety. After all, she was different from Yi Lan, who had no faith.

Chapter 71: You don’t even want to call me grandpa

At this time, Irlan's brain had not completely turned around. Embarrassing sweat was pouring out from his forehead. He had just reviewed his life as if he was facing death. Some details that he had forgotten all appeared in his mind. , It is one thing to torture one's heart, but the most important thing is to make Erlan think of his own death-worthy behavior.

It’s okay to pay tribute to a person who is not dead, but this person is still the founder of the old man in the mountain. He is called that adult in the sect. The most important thing is that he once spoke about his ideas and principles outside the founder’s door. The difference between the Order of the Old Men of the Mountain.

It's as if you approached the founding emperor and said that he couldn't survive in this country and that he was going to go overseas to found a country. How could the founding emperor feel good after hearing this? ! !

Can I go back in time and strangle myself to death now? Waiting online! Quite urgent!

The old man in the mountain took out a skull mask from somewhere, and passed by the dazed Irlan like a shadow. Then he handed the mask to the girl in front of him, and his eyes like burning flames stared at the smoke. Zui asked, "May I ask, can you inherit Hassan's name?"

Yan Zui looked at the skull mask in front of him, then at the old man in the mountains standing in front of him and at Ilan not far away. Unlike Ilan, he was born in a mountain village and as a mountain citizen, although She can be regarded as smart, but definitely not young and mature. She does not have the grace of heaven. Having been educated by the religious order since she was a child, her goal is of course to become Hassan.

Yanzui agrees with all the teachings of the sect, and at the same time wants to protect the people of the mountain. In the opinion of the old man in the mountain, he is naturally the best candidate to become Hassan. After all, a certain kid said outside his own door that he wanted another person. Open door.

While thinking about the old man in the mountain, he turned his cheek and looked at Irlan, who was standing by and restless with his eyes burning with fire.

Hidden under the mask, that majestic face could only sigh. He was obviously very brave outside his own door, no matter how big or small. He was talking to himself there, and now he didn't even Grandpa can't even bark.

Rarely, I was quite happy at first. This kind of little devil did bring me a different feeling, a feeling that I was still alive.

Yanzui also set his sights on Yilan. After all, the two of them were partners who passed the exam together, and they were also friends who helped each other leave Stone Gate. Now that he can inherit the only name of Hassan, then he Where is his companion Ilan?

The old man in the mountain seemed to have noticed Yan Zui's gaze, "No need to worry, that child has his own mission, and his path does not lie in the religious order."

This sentence also made Ilan wake up. His eyes looked at the old man in the mountain in disbelief. After all, the sect is a branch of Islam. As a relatively domineering religious sect, the founder of the sect in front of him Do people actually agree to establish their own business?

The eyes of the old man in the mountain were locked on Ilan's left arm. The cult was a correct existence established under the teachings of God. The young man in front of him was also a person chosen by God. In this case, what reason did he have? To stop this young man from completing his mission?

What's more, the young man in front of him has a mission given by God, and at the same time, he has similar but different beliefs to the Old Man of the Mountain Order. Does this mean that the road of the Order will eventually come to an end?

As Hassan's punisher, he beheaded those who went astray. He could not tolerate those who were taught by God to indulge in human desires, so he turned into a dead but immortal existence, which is the abyss of death. This duty will last until He will not let go until the end of the cult. Perhaps his retirement day will not be too far away.

After hearing what the old man in the mountain said, Yan Zui put away the worry in his eyes, and finally carefully took the skull mask from the old man in the mountain in front of him.

"Then from now on, as Hassan, you will be drunk with smoke. Remember Hassan's responsibilities and strengthen your inner principles. The next time you see my face again, it will be the time to return to death."

After saying this, the old man in the mountain turned around, and the aura on his body became erratic, as if it might be blown away by the wind at any time.

Ilan looked at the tall, but somewhat lonely figure in front of him, took a deep breath, and summoned up his courage, "Excuse me! The last Mr. Hassan..."

"Whether it is spiritual corruption or technical degradation, a person who declines cannot be given the title of [Old Man of the Mountain]. Decline means death. By cutting off the head, one can forgive his crimes and become a person entrusted to the next [Old Man of the Mountain]. old man's hope.

Be proud, you two are the only ones who have seen me and Hassan twice. "

If it weren't for Irlan, a child who was given a mission by God, he would not have made such a trip. In the past, if Hassan met him, it would be the time of death. It is rare to witness the birth of the new Hassan this time. .

"Ilan, the son of genius, the man with the mission, strengthen your creed and follow your own path. However, you must repay the kindness of the mountain village and the previous generation Hassan."

The dark clouds in the sky dispersed at this moment, and the sun shone on the earth again, but the shadow of the old man in the mountain was no longer in front of him.

The words of the old man in the mountain still echoed in his ears. Yilan understood that this was telling him that as long as he repaid his kindness, he could start his own business. In fact, even if the old man in the mountain didn't say so, he had planned this. He was not ruthless and unjust. man of.

The most important thing is that the previous Mr. Hassan has not returned, nor have the two uncles with iron masks returned. It can be said that the Old Man of the Mountains has lost three top assassins at once, and now Yan Zui's age Not that big. Even though he has inherited the name of Hassan, he may not be able to quickly suppress everyone in the cult.

If someone suggested releasing those little lunatics behind the Stone Gate to act as a fighting force, it would be a disaster if Yanzui couldn't suppress these voices.

In every group that has been developing for several years, there will always be old antiques who rely on their elders and sell them off, and the cult is no exception. After all, that adult is only dealing with Hassan as the leader, so it is inevitable that one or two bugs will be missed. Of course, this is for everyone For the former Hassan, it was also a kind of experience.

If he doesn't side with Yan Zui, then Yan Zui may not even think about controlling Hassan's rights in the next few years.

Of course, if you want to get more say, it's not just the two of them who are connected together, you must show enough strength and make enough achievements.

Irlan touched his left arm with his hand and set his sights to the south. Sure enough, he still needed to use Saladin to operate.

Chapter 72: Maybe one day, we will be strangers

It doesn't mean that Saladin must be killed. Even the previous Hassan failed with two top-level assassins, which already represents the difficulty of this task. What's more, Saladin will definitely be more strict this time. Defense, isn't there a saying that says that?

When an assassin needs to carry out a second attack, the mission has failed. Assassins should be able to kill with one strike and leave immediately after killing.

Sometimes the more famous an assassin is, the more famous he becomes, but it seems that he is not living up to his true nature as an assassin.

Perhaps the assassination is successful, he leaves quietly, and lives his life quietly in anonymity, leaving only rumors that someone was assassinated. This is a qualified assassin.

Of course, these are conclusions drawn by everyone's different definitions of assassins.

Ilan understood that when he obtained this left hand, the Ten Commandments, he was probably destined to live in obscurity for the rest of his life, and if he wanted to help Jerusalem repel Saladin's troops this time, he might really have to use this arm. He has power, but even if he uses this power, he will never use it on innocent people.

Of course, his target is the bald companion. Since they have the ability to cook raw rice without telling Saladin, it means that they will not be low in terms of numbers and status and power. Let these people be killed. It was enough to cause Saladin's army to lose senior officials, not to mention that Saladin's food and grass had been burned by himself.

It is not impossible to win this war!

Of course, the most important reason for targeting Saladin is that the old man's body should still be in Saladin's hands. The king should be waiting to make some transactions with the Old Man of the Mountain Order, such as letting the Old Man of the Mountain The Order withdrew from this battle in exchange for the remains of their predecessor, Hassan.

Not only that, the Order of the Old Man of the Mountain may have to pay more. If this is the case, other members of the order may choose to give up asking for the body of the predecessor Hassan. After all, when the current Hassan was born, the predecessor Hassan naturally changed. He became an unknown assassin and was no longer important to the Order.

Irlan can certainly be a ruthless assassin, but while he is an assassin, he is also a person named Irlan! The reason why he is unwilling to give up his name is naturally to keep telling himself that although he is walking in the darkness and is an assassin, he must also remember that he is also a human being and must retain his humanity!

So using this method to threaten Saladin with confrontation, or directly snatching back the body of old Hassan, was his willfulness as a human being.

If you can't do it as an assassin, then do it as Irlan as a human being. Only in this way will it not violate his true intentions.

He will never give up on any of his principles and true intentions!

Irlan took a deep breath, and then looked at Yanzui. If he wanted to do this, he needed the support of the new Hassan, otherwise it would be difficult to move forward.

"Yan Zui... maybe I should call you Hassan now?"

Yanzui rolled her eyes at Yilan. She was not a fool. She could not fail to hear the hidden meaning of the words of the first-generation Hassan Mountain Old Man. The person in front of her had passed the test together with her, but failed. People who become Hassan may become like the first-generation old man in the mountains in the future.

What's more, isn't it clear to her what kind of personality this guy in front of her has after growing up together for so many years? I would feel awkward if I really wanted the guy in front of me to call me Lord Hassan.

"It's better to call me Yan Zui. I am both Yan Zui and Hassan. But from now on, I'm afraid you are the only one who is willing to call me Yan Zui."

The hierarchy of the Mountain Old Men's Order is very clear. No matter how much the old men in the church look down on Yan Zui, they must still call Yan Zui Hassan. Every change of Hassan is extremely mysterious. Some people I tried to touch upon and unravel this mystery, but the result was that the bodies were separated, and I couldn't even find out how they were killed.

Over time, people in the cult understood that they must have the most basic respect for Hassan, and at the same time not explore what happened when Hassan changed generations.

Of course Yilan also understands the meaning of Yan Zui. From now on, as the leader of the Mountain Elders' Religion, Yan Zui is probably the only one who has the qualification to call her this name. From now on, in the eyes of outsiders, she will only be called Yan Zui. The name Hassan was left. In fact, the name Yanzui was now her codename after she became an assassin.

It can be said that the girl in front of her has dedicated everything to the Order of the Old Man of the Mountain and her identity as an assassin.

"I plan to get old Hassan's body back no matter what. Are you willing to support me on this?"

Listening to Yi Lan's words, Yan Zui gently squeezed her fists. Reason and sensibility collided in her mind. After a while, she opened her eyes.

"I will help you as much as possible within the scope allowed by the sect. You must understand that I am not just an assassin, Yan Zui, but also the leader of the Old Man Sect in the Mountains."

Therefore, now that she has become Hassan, she also needs to consider the interests of the entire religious order. Now she is willing to let Erlan move freely because of the old relationship between the two and the face of the adult.

Yilan looked at the girl in front of him and smiled. He was not a child. Of course he understood the reason for the girl in front of him to make such a choice. Even if the girl in front of him did not intend to support him, he also understood the reason for the choice.

But he couldn't help but feel a little more lonely. After all, at this moment, he had already seen the distant future, and the girl in front of him still had old feelings in his heart. But when she stood in Hassan's position for long enough, I'm afraid One day she can only be Hassan of the Order, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.

At that time, even if there was friction and collision between the two organizations, I am afraid that they would not be able to sit down and laugh and talk slowly like now, so cherish the time now, or cherish the time when you are still in the Mountain Old Man's Order. .

Although there is a great possibility of parting ways in the future, you should cherish the present even more.

"In short, return to Jerusalem first and tell Baldwin IV the current situation. If Saladin spreads the news that Hassan is dead, it will most likely affect the morale of Jerusalem."

The most important thing is that Saladin is not that easy to deal with. After the religious order suffered such a heavy loss, Jerusalem may have to put in more effort on the frontal battlefield.

Chapter 73: This is a notice, not a discussion

If it were in the past, negotiation would definitely be a technical job, but the situation is different now. Today is different from the past. Jerusalem still needs to work together with the Old Man of the Mountain to face the immediate crisis. It is better to wait for everything to calm down before playing tricks. Bar.

Baldwin IV saw the news that Hassan, the previous generation, had been sacrificed. Even through the veil, Irlan could feel that the king was not in a good mood.

If you think about it carefully, everyone would be like this. After finally suppressing the domestic situation, he could face Saladin without caring about the rear issues, but as a result, such a big thing happened to his allies.

The most important thing is that the death of the previous Hassan cannot be said to have nothing to do with him. After all, the assassination of Saladin can be regarded as the result of his and Hassan's joint discussion.

Baldwin IV closed his eyes and thought for a moment, then made a decision.

"In this war, I will personally act as the leader to attract Saladin's attention. When Saladin directs most of his attention to me, the space for action given to you will naturally become larger."

As for whether it is dangerous to do so?

Baldwin IV could only say that even Hassan had put himself in danger. Before more support came here, he could only fight for everything, including his extremely weak body, let alone Sasha. This time, Latin is also conducting the expedition in person, and only by stepping forward can he boost his own morale.

[After receiving the promise from Baldwin IV, Yanzui and I began to return to the headquarters of the Old Man of the Mountain. 】

[The last Hassan died, the two iron mask owners died, and Hassan was replaced. Such news must be told to other people in the cult as soon as possible, and at the same time, the existing forces in the cult must be integrated. 】

[The most important thing is to recall all the assassins of the sect, and the next step is to establish Yan Zui’s authority as Hassan’s leader. 】

[At the same time, with the departure of the previous Mr. Hassan, who came to power drunkenly, my status in the entire sect has also risen linearly. Now I can finally get other assassins in the sect to help inquire, and The bald guy I killed before moved closer. 】

[This is the first time in so many years that all assassins have returned to the headquarters. 】

In the mountain fortress carved from rock, assassins wearing cloaks sat in front of a square table. Yan Zui wore a white skull mask on his face and sat at the head of the table. Irlan stood steadily. Standing steadily behind Yan Zui, his eyes hidden under the iron mask were gently closed.

After all, if he didn't do this, Irlan suspected that he would slam the table hard to shut up because of the noisy voices of the guys in front of him.

The main reason for the quarrel between these assassins was the replacement of Hassan. Most assassins still did not want to believe the news of old Hassan's death. Of course they knew the strength of old Hassan. The most important thing was that old Hassan also led them for ten years. It has been a few years, and now the new Hassan is a young girl again.

It wouldn't matter in normal times, but now Saladin is about to attack Jerusalem. If Jerusalem is really occupied by Saladin, then Saladin will have the front line to attack the Old Man of the Mountain Order, and the pressure that the Order will bear will be its own. The largest since the establishment of the Order.

"This won't work. Can we really hold on?"

"Why at this critical moment, Lord Hassan would..."

"Is there any secret plan by Baldwin IV during this period? Otherwise, why would the former Lord Hassan carry out such a difficult mission?!"

"Anyway, I don't feel comfortable entrusting the entire Shanzhong Old Man Group to such a brat."

"How about we take care of it?"

The noisy sound lasted for an unknown amount of time, and finally the entire cult fell silent. Then an older assassin was pushed out by others as the speaker, stood up and came to Yan Zui.

There was a bit of respect on the face of this assassin, and he looked like a kind elder who was treating you well. It seems that these assassins thought that sending such a talker to play the family card would take it from Yan Zui's hand. to rights.

"The new Lord Hassan, we all don't want to see such a thing happen. Old Hassan must have not imparted all his knowledge to you. There will be other assassins who will continue to lead you in the future. After you completely master Hassan, Until we learn the skills, the Order will let us handle a lot of things.”

Yan Zui just crossed his arms and closed his eyes without replying any words. Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. When old Hassan led them to practice, he told them about the internal structure of the sect. After developing this After a long period of time, factions naturally formed within the sect.

There is no doubt that Hassan has the highest position among the entire Order of Old Men in the Mountain. After Yanzui grew up for a few years, these older assassins would inevitably return the right to manage the order to Yanzui.

After all, those who tried to seize Hassan's power still faced the fate of unknown death before them.

Under Hassan, the second-ranked voice is of course the object of competition among the factions within these sects.

Looking at the people in front of him, Irlan could only sigh and lament how sad it was. Perhaps such a situation would not have happened when the cult was first established. After so many years of development, this trend is inevitable. Tuanshi is a small country. If the king is weak, the ministers will be strong. This is an inevitable problem.

Ilan stretched out his hand directly forward. The old assassin who was talking naturally noticed Ilan's actions, so he raised his arm to block Ilan's attack.

However, Irlan was like a stream of water wrapped around his body. Following his arm, he flipped and firmly caught his neck, and at the same time, he pressed down hard.

Bang——

The old assassin's face was in direct contact with the table.

The expression on the old assassin's face changed. Just when he was about to scold him for not respecting his seniors at such a young age, the hidden sword popped out and stabbed directly on the table next to the old assassin's cheek. The sharp hidden arrow penetrated directly through the table. The throat and bones are not difficult to deal with.

"Excuse me, what did you want to say just now? I think you have not forgotten the most basic rules of the Order. All the assassins in the Order are dominated by Hassan. In addition, the new Hassan and I were also personally killed by the previous Mr. Hassan. The selected Iron Masked Assassin will not be inferior to you in terms of strength and experience, or are you prepared to overstep your authority?"

Irlan stood on the table and looked at the other assassins in front of him, "I've called you all here today to issue a notice, not for discussion. Let's make this clear!"

Chapter 74: The counterattack begins

[I ended this sect meeting with violence. Next, we need to work together to deal with Saladin, or at least hold him back. 】

[This time, I saw all kinds of assassins at this religious sect conference. 】

[Some assassins who have just started seem to have some naive illusions. After all, Saladin and they both belong to Islam. Isn't Saladin closer to them than the knights of Christianity? 】

【how can that be possible.....】

[People who grew up in the sect may not think there is anything wrong with the sect’s teachings, but in the eyes of other Islamic sects, the Old Man of the Mountain is a heretic and an existence that should be eradicated. Compared with the killing of believers among Christians, Islam The killings between sects are even worse. 】
