Just a few days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Yun Zhong and Wen Yu went down to Baihao Mountain and headed for Fengyou County.
It's not out of overthinking, but in recent days, the virtual elixir in Yunzhong's body has become more and more unstable. Not to mention using his sword energy to destroy the ancient well that draws the destiny of the Baihao Mountains, even if he gets up in the morning Even though he was still a little short of energy, he had no choice but to put aside the matter of destroying the well and rest for a few days. Yun Zhong is quite anxious, but the recent changes in the Xu Dan are really weird. In addition to still being unable to squeeze out the Divine Will of Qiu Lake and struggling to wander around the edge of the Dantian, there are also traces of red light swimming around, which has caused Yun Zhong's anger recently. I can't help it. Every morning when I wake up, my mouth is dry and my tongue is dry, and I get angry easily.
Moreover, since being marked as a recycling disciple, dozens of people have entered the mountain to become disciples. There are not many buildings in Baihumen. Yun Zhong discussed with Ye Zhai for a while, then vacated their original residence, and went to Fengyou County to look for them. A few skilled doctors managed to slightly recuperate the lesions that were full of anger.
Ye Zhai was not in a hurry. He only told the two of them that the clouds and waves in Fengyou County were treacherous now, so they should not cause trouble. When going down the mountain, they should cover their faces with bamboo hats and enter Fengyou County quickly to avoid others seeing their traces. As for the ancient well It won't be too late to wait until he is recuperated.
Therefore, the two of them left Baihao Mountain at night and rode quickly to Fengyou County. They passed three cities in succession without entering. When they went to the fourth city and saw no one following them, they found a place to rest.
"What Ye Clan Master said is indeed true. The rivers and lakes below the mountain seem to be in a state of turmoil. If we proceed slowly, I'm afraid we will get into a lot of trouble." Yun Zhong patted the horse's forehead, but his expression disappeared. To calm down a little bit, there were some people who were reticent along the way and it was difficult to say anything.
Wen Yu tied the reins of the black deer and frowned slightly when he heard this. On the way down the mountain, he saw no less than five or six horses. Although they were not as strong as the mixed-haired horse and the black deer, they still followed him. In Fengyou County, it was not until the two of them passed around three cities that they finally disappeared.
"In this case, we need to be more careful at night. The caravan in Fengyou County is the most powerful. If there is a fight, I am afraid that the government will not be willing to intervene."
The young man nodded, turned around and said to Wen Yu, "It's already midnight, let's take a rest first. This inn has three floors. I just told the waiter that there are two adjacent guest rooms separated by a wall. If you encounter trouble, , and easy to take care of."
The terrain of Fengyou County is quite high, so the autumn nights here are not much warmer than those in the northwest of Qi Dynasty. Although the autumn wind in the city is not very strong, it is difficult to stop it with thin clothes.
At the mid-month of the month, Yun Zhong still found it difficult to calm down his inner energy, adding to the irritation, so he had to get up from the bed, drink several sips of water, sit down at the table, and gently press his eyebrows.

People in cultivation are most afraid of the internal fire that remains unquenched and their thoughts are uneven. Compared with ordinary people, if they can't be sparse, they won't be able to say that their realm will rise. In such a predicament, not to mention that the sword energy comes as soon as the breath is called, even if the energy circulates at night, it will probably not be able to flow freely and freely, so the melancholy becomes heavier, and the various thoughts in the mind are like weeds coming in spring, and it is impossible to cut them all. In particular, the inner Qi blocks the center of the eyebrows, causing a dull pain in the head. As a last resort, I press the center of the eyebrows to barely relieve the pain.
Although I had written a letter two days ago and hung it on the blue sky, I sent a message to ask senior brother Liu Qing for the solution. However, one of them was east of Yizhang, and the other had been out of Wulingpo for a long time and headed north. , the journey is really long, and there will be no news for a while, so we can only suffer like this.
Not wanting to sleep peacefully, the young man had no choice but to take out the pen and ink from the package, spread it out, and using a teapot as a paperweight, he wrote hundreds of words with random strokes of the pen.
There is a bright moon in the sky outside the window lattice, which is already nearly full. We worship the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which has only been three or two days ago. Whenever I think about how to write the letter to my family, Yun Zhong always doesn’t know where to start, so every time he writes a few dozen words, he gets confused. I shook my head and replaced it with a piece of rice paper, and pressed the teapot down again. It had been a long time since I had written a letter home that I wanted to post.
My father had been away from home for too long when he was young, and he could only return home to stay for more than a month near the end of the year. Then he left in a hurry. No matter how the young man wanted to come, he always felt strange when he was young, until he left. After several trips to the rivers and lakes, I realized that every family in the world has its own worries, and I realized that being a father is not easy. But I suffered from the fact that although I was usually very good at chatting, whenever I wrote a letter to my family, I was always a little clumsy and it was difficult to express my feelings, so I felt depressed and even more upset.
During the third watch of the night, except for the night watchmen, there are no scattered lights in the inn. The cold autumn outside the street is finally looking for gaps, and the night slowly flows among thousands of houses. The only sound in the distance is the sound of the watchman knocking on the wooden door. night.
The young man put down his pen and ink, extinguished the lights, crept out of the window, sat on the eaves of the second floor, and looked at the moon alone in the sky.
I have glimpsed this moon many times when I was a child, looking at the novels of heroes and heroines under the bright moonlight. I don’t know how many days I have accumulated it, but now I am thousands of miles away from the nameless town with crumbling earth walls. From afar, I vaguely realized that the miserable scholar who had shown his talent early but later became a half-official and half-hidden man said that he misses his family more during the festive season, which is so close to people's hearts.
"It's rare for young master uncle to be elegant, and it's hard not for the younger generation to accompany him." There was a rustling sound. Wen Yu, who was rarely wearing black clothes, also dug out of the house. However, because he rarely did this, his skills were a little clumsy and he almost fell down. roof tiles.
"We are still not resting at this time, how can we practice tomorrow." Yun Zhong smiled and gently moved the tile back to its place, quite apologetically, "It was probably because there was a lot of noise when I left the house just now, disturbing Miss Wen's sleep. But I was just so upset that I had no choice but to go out for some fresh air."
Wen Yu turned his face to the side, quite curious, "My uncle is also worried about something? When I saw my uncle in the mountains, he was really obsessed with practice. Most of the time, the only thing he cared about in the world was a sword. Moreover, he often He is joking with all the masters and uncles, but he doesn't look like a thoughtful master."
The young man smiled lightly and lay down on the roof tiles. Fortunately, the sky was still clear during the day, so the tiles were also heated by the sun. Although it was already late, he still didn't feel cold. He looked up and saw the stars in the sky. , as bright as waving beans hanging over the river, and my mood is much more relaxed.
"The so-called Master Uncle is just an empty name. He is still young and will reach the age where he can talk about his worries. In fact, the worries in front of him seem not to be a big deal compared to the leader of the Ye Clan. big event."
Wen Yu heard what the young man said the day before yesterday and realized that the white-haired sect leader was originally the one he liked. Unfortunately, they were separated for a long time and never met again. She sighed for a moment, "Everything is always not going well in my life. Compared to Yemen Lord, most people in the world are indeed not suffering. Although the young master is trapped by the Qiu Lake and the Xu Dan, there is still a Xu Dan available. If the three realms can be broken in the future, the Xu Dan will be smooth and smooth. Compared with the Jianghu Those frustrated people among us who have never entered the path of spiritual practice have much better luck."
Yun Zhong nodded, "That's true. I've never felt that I'm blessed. I was just an idle kid in a small town who didn't study well. Now that I can summon the sword energy with the Xu Dan, it's a blessing. Naturally, there shouldn't be any sadness. But no matter what, this anger comes very quickly. It seems that even a few lines of cursive writing are slightly unsatisfactory, and my heart is extremely depressed. I will suppress it for a while, fearing that I will get twice the result with half the effort, so I can't let it go."
Wen Yu sighed and saw that the young man was always frowning slightly, pursed his lips and teeth, and was quite concerned, "Uncle, if you have no intention of practicing recently, you might as well rest for a few days. It will be counterproductive and your practice will be fruitless. Why bother to forcefully resist the fire in your chest like this?" Once it comes, it turns out to be a poor one."
The young man grinned and nodded, looking at the woman seriously, and it was clear that there was a smile on his lips.
"Actually, the best way is to say what Miss Wen said tonight, not to mention waking up, but I feel too comfortable for some reason. I probably won't need to see a doctor for recuperation after that, and all the lesions will be gone, and I can still save money. A lot of money."
Wen Yu had long been accustomed to the young uncle's words along the way. He curled his lips and struck at the young man's waist. When he looked sideways, the young man bared his teeth and grinned, but he never dared to make a move, lest the tiles slip and disturb others' sleep. He was two points calmer than before, but still in a bad mood. "Since I am ill, I am still thinking about saving two cents of money. Most of the disciples of Nangong Mountain are like you."
When the girl finally felt a little sleepy and went back to her room to rest, Yun Zhong still lay down on the eaves alone. However, he returned to the room halfway and hugged the sword to his chest, feeling quite emotional.
"But it's cool in autumn, and autumn evenings are the most hurtful. It seems that people in Jianghu gangs have a miserable life. It should be a good time to sleep with my wife and children, but I have to stay here. Why bother? Zai."
There was a knocking sound from the roof tiles.
The young man was still holding his sword and seemed to have fallen asleep.
But when he opened his eyes again, he drew his sword to step on his feet, turned around and struck out with his sword, and penetrated the masked man halfway down the three-story building along the iron hook rope.
The eaves and tiles moved again, but it sounded a little noisy.
Yun Zhong tapped on the roof tiles with his footsteps, and stabbed with the sword again, but was blocked by someone. Then more than ten hooks were thrown from downstairs to the four corners of the eaves, and three or five sleeve arrows were fired at Yun Zhong's door. As he left, he heard the sound of footsteps among the eaves of the house on the side.
"After all, I've been waiting for you, gentlemen, but I'm worried, so please try the sword." Yun Zhong withdrew his sword and did not make another move. Instead, he unsheathed the sword, turned his back behind him, and waited quietly for the man who just handed him the sword. trick.
After all, in a city, even people in a caravan need to be careful. Therefore, these dozen people walked very lightly for fear of something unexpected happening. After hearing Yun Zhong's whispered words, they also drew out the daggers from their sleeves and stepped closer. And forward.
The young man only used his footsteps to dodge, but did not move his sword. Whenever he drew a sword, he would definitely hurt the enemy, so the sound of the swords clashing was very rare. However, he could see clearly under the moonlight and saw several people taking out arrows and flying knives from their sleeves. Yun Zhong had to turn his body The figure flashed past, flipped his hand to pick someone down, jumped down, and landed steadily on the long street.
On the second floor, someone had just slept peacefully.
