The night was filled with stars, and the moon was bright in the sky. After having dinner, Tang Jing and Xiao Ruyun sat side by side by the fire. Although their attention was on each other, they remained silent and did not say a word.
Tang Jing sat cross-legged, with his hands on his knees, and his eyes were not squinting. His sitting posture seemed serious and steady, but in fact his mind was blank, but he also looked a little stupid. He stared at the burning flames intently. Quietly waiting for the passage of time.
Xiao Ruyun sat with her knees bent on the right side of Tang Jing, leaning slightly towards Tang Jing. She looked elegant and quiet, and occasionally glanced at Tang Jing from the corner of her eye.
A gust of night wind gently caressed the forest, shaking the thick trees and bringing a slight chill.
Although Tang Jing had a low emotional intelligence, he was very considerate in caring for others. He felt the cool breeze on his face bringing the warmth of the night. Thinking of Xiao Ruyun's frail body, Tang Jing raised his left hand slightly, feeling pain in his entire left shoulder. He quickly took off his coat and put it on Xiao Ruyun.
Seeing Tang Jing's movements, Xiao Ruyun turned her head and looked up at Tang Jing. She met Tang Jing's eyes. In her tender eyes, love surged, and her heart fluttered with warmth. Then she lowered her eyes and raised the corners of her mouth. , smiled lightly, slowly leaned towards Tang Jing, and gently fell into Tang Jing's right arms.
Tang Jing felt a surge of emotion in his heart. Through the swaying flames, he could see that there was some nervousness in the dark eyes, but the admiration in his heart still made Tang Jing unconsciously open his mind and gently hold Xiao Ruyun in his right hand. Hold him gently in his arms.
Xiao Ruyun gently fell into Tang Jing's arms. Tang Jing hugged the tenderness and couldn't help but think of everything that happened today. He cherished it in his heart and said hesitantly: "Uh...hey...Ruyun, you... Can you promise me that you will never leave me in this life?"
Tang Jing's words were somewhat beyond Xiao Ruyun's expectations, but Xiao Ruyun's heart was completely captured by Tang Jing at this moment, so she just smiled faintly and responded softly: "Yes."
The night in the woods was very quiet. Tang Jing and Xiao Ruyun closed their eyes and rested in that happiness and sweetness.
Six black figures jumped quickly on the branches and had already passed the Jishui Pond. Taking advantage of the bright moonlight, they quickly approached Tang Jing. They did not stop until the fire in the woods appeared in their eyes.
The Eighteen Poisons of Smoke and Cloud would not disturb Tang Jing and Xiao Ruyun, so after confirming that it was Tang Jing and Xiao Ruyun, they were left to protect Tang Jing while the others went about their own business.
Wu Yi and Tang Wanting, who had not yet arrived at Jishuitan, took advantage of the moonlight to ride horses towards the place where Tang Jing and Xiao Ruyun fell off the cliff. A black shadow floated silently from the tree.
"call out--"
A hidden weapon flew towards Tang Wanting. Through the moonlight, Tang Wanting could see the appearance of the hidden weapon clearly. She recognized at a glance that the hidden weapon was the Yanyun Dart used by Yanyun Shibadu.
With a soft "ding" sound, Yanyun Biao took a piece of paper and nailed it to a tree trunk not far from Tang Wanting.
"Yanyun Dart!" Tang Wanting muttered, her eyes followed the smoke and cloud dart and landed on the note. Then she took the reins in her hands, turned the horse's head, came to the big tree, pulled out the smoke and cloud dart, and shook off the paper. strip.
Through the bright moonlight, you can clearly see that the note simply says:
[Young Master is only injured, Miss Wanting, don’t worry. There is Jishui Pond in front of you, so don’t be careless. 】
Originally, Yanyun Shibadu was only secretly protecting Tang Jing and Tang Wanting, but in order to prevent Tang Wanting and Wu Yi from worrying too much, and to remind the panicked two to be careful of the Jishui Pond ahead, they left this piece of paper with them. strip.
With this note, Tang Wanting's hanging heart was relieved. Her slightly frowning eyebrows relaxed, her cherry mouth curved slightly, her cute and pretty face showed the girl's happy smile, she raised her head and shouted happily at Wu Yi Shouted: "Great...Brother and Sister Ruyun are fine!"
Wu Yi was riding next to Tang Wanting. When he heard the news, the stone that was pressing on his heart disappeared in an instant. He couldn't help but take a deep breath, showed that lucky smile, and said happily: "Great, let's go ahead and find it quickly." Brother."
Seeing Wu Yi turning his horse's head and preparing to raise his whip, Tang Wanting quickly stopped him and said, "Second brother, wait a minute. In front of us is the Jishui Pond mentioned by Master Kong Ming. We have to be careful."
"Are we reaching Jishuitan ahead?" Wu Yi said something unexpectedly, stopped, looked back at Tang Wanting, and analyzed: "Master Kongming said that the eldest brother's location should not be far from Jishuitan, and the eldest brother should be right in front. Let’s get there quickly.”
Before he finished speaking, Wu Yi dismounted, took off a coil of rope from the horse's back, and rushed forward.
After all, Tang Wanting and Wu Yi are both martial arts practitioners, and Tang Wanting's light kung fu is not inferior to Tang Jing's, so Jishuitan will naturally not be a problem for the two of them, but for the sake of safety, they still wear ropes.
Tang Wanting and Wu Yi abandoned their horses, jumped on the branches under the moonlight, and continued to move in the direction of Tang Jing.
The firelight in the dark night became a guiding light. Wu Yi and Tang Wanting crossed the Jishuitan and continued to move forward. Soon after, they saw the flickering light in the woods in the distance. They felt happy and ran towards the place where the firelight was.
Tang Jing was holding Xiao Ruyun in his arms and resting against a big tree. When he heard the movement, he opened his eyes vigilantly.
The sound got closer and closer, and a black shadow flew up from a tree trunk as light as a feather, drifting past the lush tree toward the fire, like a phantom in the dark night, toward the Tang Dynasty. Jing Luo.
Tang Jing took a closer look, and there was a burst of surprise between his brows, and he muttered to himself: "Wanting?"
Xiao Ruyun, who was sleeping lightly in Tang Jing's arms, heard Tang Jing's words and slowly opened her eyes.
Tang Wanting landed lightly in front of Tang Jing and Xiao Ruyun, put her hands behind her back, tilted her head slightly, and said with a grin: "Well, Tang Jing, my second brother and I have worked hard to find you. It's better for you, here is the beauty. Hug each other and sleep well."
Tang Jing was stunned for a moment, but before he could react, Xiao Ruyun looked up at Tang Wanting. She was reserved in her heart and couldn't help being shy. She stood up with a hint of panic and explained: "No... Wanting, don't get me wrong."
Tang Wanting quickly waved her hands and said with a bad smile: "Hehe, Sister Ruyun is joking with you. I didn't see anything. I really didn't see anything."
At this moment, Wu Yi also strode over from the branch and landed lightly beside Tang Wanting. Looking at the scene in front of him, he chuckled and said: "Brother, you scared me to death. I don't want to commit suicide. You can't do anything." Don’t mess around.”
