"Uncle Jiu, why did you let them go?" Jiang Ningxue looked at Tang Jiu, the dissatisfaction in her cold eyes could no longer be suppressed.
Tang Jiu still looked free and easy, leaning on the tree trunk and pouring wine into his throat, but his eyes glanced at the two men with cigarettes and pots aside.
Yu Lie heard some clues from Chunyu Fu's mouth, and also knew that the man wearing a bamboo hat in front of him was from the Southern Tang Dynasty. Back then, the Southern Tang Dynasty and Qi Yun drew the Yingjiang River as the boundary. Over the years, the two countries have not fought, except for the saber in Yu Lie's hand. Still not letting go, secretly on guard.
I have been licking blood in the rivers and lakes for many years with a thousand blades of a pipe and a pot. I am keenly aware of the change in Tang Jiu's eyes. After thinking for a moment, I know that this man has something to say to Miss Jiang. However, Yu Lie has an upright temperament and holds the knife in front of me. Next to him, there was a look of trying to find out what was going on... He thought to himself that this bamboo hat was so high in martial arts that if it offended him, he wouldn't be able to carry it around with him.
After calming down, Yan Guo hurriedly took out the pipe from his waist, stepped forward, put his arm around General Geng Zhi's shoulders, and said, "Brother Yu, the wind is blowing through the forest here, and I just dived into the valley. The fire has dried up all the moisture, so I can lend you a fire to break it." Use it, follow me to find a place, help me shelter a little from the wind..."
Yu Lie was as smooth as a cigarette pot. He only wanted to find out what the purpose of this man from the Southern Tang Dynasty was to go all the way north to Yanbei. What's more, Brother Mu's whereabouts were still unknown. He scratched his neck and said in confusion: "What are you doing?" If the fire is wet, isn't the pipe also wet? Brother Mu hasn't been found yet, so how can I have any thoughts..."
Before he could finish his words, Yandengguo grabbed his shoulder forcefully and interrupted his words: "Brother Yu, come with me..."
"You..." Yu Lie couldn't resist him and was forcibly dragged by the pipe pot. He temporarily left the edge of the valley and headed straight into the forest.
.
Seeing the two people leaving in good faith, Tang Jiu stood up from the tree trunk he was leaning on, looked at Jiang Ningxue's embarrassed appearance, frowned and said, "Is it worth it for such a boy? I had already helped him in the He Family Fort earlier. I also gave you the sword of the Tang Dynasty and the lotus flower as a gift, which can be regarded as repaying your favor. Besides, I, a man of the Tang Dynasty, can be better than others. Is it possible that you are really willing to lower yourself..."
"Why did you let those two people leave?" Jiang Ningxue did not answer Tang Jiu's question, her cold eyes full of persistence.
Although the Grand Master was strong, he still feared power. Xu Shi saw the anger hidden in Jiang Ningxue's eyes. Tang Jiu knew that he was overstepping his bounds, so he lifted his robe and knelt down.
Although Jiang Ningxue has a cold temperament, she is also familiar with human feelings. When she saw Tang Jiu about to kneel, she restrained her temper and hurriedly stepped forward to help Tang Jiu kneel down. There was a hint of apology in her cold voice: "Nine... .Uncle Jiu, that’s not what I meant, it’s just..."
There was some pity in Tang Jiu's eyes, he stood up and sighed: "I know... you have no other intentions, and I also know your temper, but... he already knows he is wrong, but he is... you can't Asking him to apologize is not...but this is not the purpose of my trip. I am anxious to find you because your brother has already joined us."
"What?" When Jiang Ningxue heard her brother enter Qi Yun, concern and panic appeared in her cold eyes. She hesitated for a moment and continued to ask.
"How can he...how can he travel a long distance with his illness?"
Tang Jiu's usually free and easy face showed a worried look at this moment, and he said in a low voice: "If this were not the case, how could I dare to urge you? Come to think of it, entering Qi Yun is really a helpless move. His illness can no longer be cured by ordinary doctors. Only by taking a look inside the Mirror Flower Shuiyue Pavilion may we be able to find a glimmer of hope.
...This is also his intention. You should put the overall situation first and go to Wangli Villa to meet him first..."
"But...he..." She finally knew why Tang Jiu came, but Muyi's whereabouts were unknown. How could she leave like this? But she also knew about her brother's illness, and Jiang Ningxue was in a dilemma.
Tang Jiu had clearly seen through Jiang Ningxue's daughter's thoughts and spoke sternly: "There is nothing wrong with the love between children, but you have to know that if his medical treatment is not good... what kind of burden is this on your shoulders? This is also the reason why I want to let those two people go. Sometimes, although human power can temporarily defy the will of God, it can never defeat the destiny. What's more... the two tigers of Qi Yun and Northern Jin are fighting, which is what my lord wants to see."
The woman still hesitated before meeting him. Tang Jiu's sleeves shook slightly, and a Tang Jianlian flower appeared in his palm: "I know you are worried about that boy. Tang Jianlianhua felt the same way. When he left Hejiapu that day, I gave him Tang Jianlianhua." The sword lotus flower is close to him. At this moment, he has not yet used it, which means that he has not yet encountered the choice of life and death. What's more...
.That kid is not simple either. You have to..."
"Uncle Jiu!" Before Tang Jiu could finish his words of dissuasion, Jiang Ningxue interrupted, her cold eyes flashed for a moment, then she finally closed her eyes and made up her mind.
"I know what to do. I will go with Uncle Jiu to see my brother...but before that, I want to ask Uncle Jiu to do something."
Jiang Ningxue had a stubborn temper, and Tang Jiu knew it. Seeing that his words of dissuasion had taken effect, his heart finally fell to the ground, and he regained his free and easy expression and said, "What's the matter?"
"I want to help him despite his humble position."
Tang Jiu seemed to have already guessed Jiang Ningxue's thoughts: "Don't worry, I will go all the way north.
Coming up, I already know everything about this place. The Jin army has retreated and Yanbei is safe. "
After hearing this, Jiang Ningxue felt a little at ease. She raised her eyes and looked around, hoping to see the figure in the green shirt, but all she could see in response was the mountains and dry forests. Her eyes wandered far away, and then she saw the two figures of Yandianguo and Yandianguo. The looming flame of the tobacco bag.
"Uncle Ninth, I have one more request." Jiang Ningxue looked away, her tone still cold, but already showing fatigue.
"General Qi Yun, we can protect him and return to the city safely when we leave, but that person..." Tang Jiu looked at the flickering flame of the tobacco bag, seeming to hesitate.
"Brother Chixin... is the person who is traveling with him. I can't abandon him in the Shillong Mountains." Jiang Ningxue had made up her mind to leave with the pipe pot.
The boy's whereabouts were unknown, but since Tang Jiu said that the boy was fine, Jiang Ningxue felt a little at ease. Just as Tang Jiu said, compared with the boy, the burden on her shoulders was heavier. After weighing it again and again, she had to act according to Tang Jiu's words. .
Seeing Jiang Ningxue's expression, he knew that if she didn't understand what was deep in her heart, even if she agreed to her invitation to go south, she might not be able to concentrate, so she made up her mind and said, "Tang Jiu accepts the order!"
Turning her eyes again, Jiang Ningxue looked sideways at the valley aside. The water surface was calm and waveless like a mirror, taking in all the night. The dark blue night sky was just like a young man's green shirt. The moon fell into the water, and the halo dispersed into it, just like a young man. The long sword emitting moonlight in the hand...
"Where have you been? You promised me that you would take me into Murong Valley with you... But now I have to leave... I wonder if you will forgive me."
Moving lightly on the lotus steps, we reached the bank of the valley water. A cold and pretty face was reflected in the mirror-like water, even though the black hair was a little messy.
, but still can't cover up the stunning beauty in the world...
The cold eyes are longing for each other, the wind in Shillong Mountain is singing...
As everyone knows, at this time, the young man is trapped in the sewer of the valley.
Gu Xiao and Murong Wu walked in the waterway with apprehension, until they finished the cup of tea, they felt that the waterway suddenly became dark. As they walked deeper, it was nothing, but the light in the waterway suddenly dimmed. But Gu Xiao, who was walking in front, felt wary and looked back.
This sight made the young man's eyes shrink suddenly. The entrance behind him had disappeared at some point. At this moment, behind the two of them, there was only the water of a lonely waterfall flowing from the sewer.
Against the dim light of the fire in the young man's hand, Murong Wu saw the young man's face change slightly. Looking back, his face changed, and he was about to turn around and dive into the water behind him to find the entrance, but the young man stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Girl, don't you think something is strange? Our entrance has disappeared for no reason, but the water in the waterway is still flowing. If there is no entrance, where does the water go?"
After what the young man said, Murong Wu suddenly realized that it made sense and hurriedly said: "Now, what should we do?"
The young man withdrew his gaze and murmured: "With no way out, the only option is to move forward and find a way to enter Murong Valley."
Deeply convinced, Murong Wu met the young man's gaze, and just as she was about to speak, she glanced behind the young man from the corner of her eye, and her charming eyes suddenly shrank.
"careful!"
On the way to the end, the young man had already braced himself up and was on full alert. When he saw Murong Wu's face change suddenly, he sensed the dangerous aura approaching behind him. His starry eyes glanced quickly, and the light of the Moon-Destroying Sword appeared. At the same time, he turned around and struck the horizontal sword When he reached his chest, a surging force suddenly passed into the Broken Moon Sword...
Already injured
Not lightly, this powerful force hit the young man, forcing him to stamp his feet to resist. Unexpectedly, the water channel was slippery, and his feet slipped, causing the young man to be pushed out with great force.
Fortunately, Murong Wu was right behind the young man. When she saw something strange, she hurriedly used her inner strength to press against the young man's back and used her inner strength to help. Only then did she stop him from being pushed back. She took the opportunity to raise her head, look over the young man's shoulder and look forward. .
In front of the young man, a figure blocked the two men's progress, but unlike the enemies or pursuers they had encountered before, this figure actually shimmered under the weak firelight of the fire in the young man's hand.
"This...this is..." In panic, Murong Wu was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to describe what she saw in front of her.
The young man in front of him also had a solemn expression, and what was reflected in his starry eyes was actually a "water man". The water flowing into the arched corridor must have stretched down and formed when the two people looked back to explore the entrance behind them.
After taking a closer look, he finally discovered that the person who had just attacked him was the "Water Man" blocking the way. It looked like a human-shaped arm, extending out like a knife. It seemed that the person who just hit the Broken Moon was exactly the same. It was the "weapon" in its hand that followed its own figure and stopped with Murong Wu's help. The "water man" in front also stopped attacking and stood in the dark waterway.
Gu Xiao, who saw some clues, wanted to take the opportunity to see the water channel behind it before it attacked again. Unexpectedly, when he raised his hand to break the fire, something unexpected happened.
The "water man" who had been standing still seemed to sense something. When the fire light lifted up for a moment, his body moved, and the "weapon" in his hand stabbed straight at him.
The water in the water channel seemed to sense this movement. In the young man's surprised eyes, it should have dispersed and diverted water.
The water from the lonely waterfall actually poured into the back of the "Water Man", making his momentum even higher...
The water channel was narrow, and Gu Xiao was unable to use Snow Stepping Qixun. Faced with this situation, he had to grit his teeth and use his skills. The weak sword light of Zie Yue in his hand immediately vibrated, facing the waterman's weapon.
The broken moon shimmered in the water channel like a condensed fire, blending with the sparkling water light. Murong Wu only felt the fire light and water light flash in front of her eyes, and then she saw clearly that the young man seized the wrong opportunity and turned his head to avoid the stab. , the green edge in his hand was extended upwards, hitting the "Water Man" in the chest, twisting his wrist slightly, turning the sword edge, and the true energy flowed into the "Water Man" body along with the sword edge.
"Bang——" After a slight explosion, the "Water Man" transformed into the water of the lonely waterfall and splashed in all directions.
Even though he was breaking through the water, the splash of water extinguished the fire in Gu Xiao's hand. There was darkness in front of him. Gu Xiao did not dare to be careless, so he had to jump back until he felt the sound of Murong Wu's nervous and rapid breathing behind him, and then he stopped. shape.
"What on earth is it?" Murong Wu asked tremblingly, especially when there was no light in the waterway, only the sound of running water made people feel even more panicked.
Gu Xiao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Girl, you are the one from Murong Valley. If you don't know, how will I know? But now that this thing has been broken, let's leave as soon as possible..."
Before he finished speaking, the young man seemed to sense something. He stopped speaking for a moment, and the long sword in his hand stirred rapidly, laying down layers of sword nets in front of him.
"Ding ding ding——"
In the darkness, it was impossible to see, but bursts of fire lit up on the blade of the Broken Moon Sword.
After taking a breath, the fire disappeared and the waterway fell into darkness again.
