Xu Fenglei Zhentian and Luo Xiangxue squatted behind the cliff, not daring to make a sound, and listened quietly to the conversation coming from the other side of the cliff. It was obvious that the voices came from the mouths of a man and a woman. They must be the people from Hell Gate. If they were to come from that way now, they would definitely meet them on a narrow road.
Xu Feng whispered to Lei Zhentian and Luo Xiangxue not to panic and to listen to what they said. If the other party really came closer, they could only retreat to the woods and hide in order to observe the movement.
The sound of the two people's conversation gradually became clearer and clearer from far away. Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of soft footsteps, and it was obvious that they were coming this way.
Xu Feng didn't hesitate anymore, and winked at the two people behind him, signaling everyone to retreat into the woods. If they met them on this steep plank road, they would definitely start a fight, and the people in the Hell Gate would be disturbed and it would be difficult to escape intact.
The sounds of conversations and footsteps behind the cliff were getting closer and closer. Xu Feng led the two of them on several ups and downs on the plank road, and then jumped into the dense bushes. Under the cover of branches and leaves, no one would have thought that there would be several people hidden in this deep mountain forest.
The three of them squatted in the bushes, their bodies covered by thick branches and leaves. Xu Feng whispered to the two of them not to make any sound. When the visitor comes closer, take a closer look. The two people have not shown up, and you can't guess what the other person looks like or what role they play in the Hell Gate. If you still don't understand the situation, it's better not to expose it.
At this time, the two people appeared from behind the cliff, a man and a woman. The man was in his early thirties, wearing a purple singlet, with handsome eyebrows, high bun, and holding a silver-gray sword. The woman looked younger, probably in her early twenties, wearing a light red shirt, with long hair shawl, slender figure, a face with oval seeds, bright eyes and bright teeth, and she was quite pretty. She also held a long sword in her hand. Look at the attire of these two people. Although they look like typical people from the world, they still show a hint of the style of a wealthy family.
The two people were chatting and walking slowly towards this side. His eyes looked around from time to time, as if he was looking for something, full of vigilance. The two of them had walked through the cliff path and headed straight into the forest.
Xu Feng, Lei Zhentian and Luo Xiangxue hid in the thick branches and leaves, not daring to make a sound. Listening quietly to the conversation between the two people, although they don't know their identities, they must be from Hell Gate.
The man said: "Lian'er, why did you say that the sect master arrested that old man? This place is not less than a thousand miles away from Guanzhong, and the sect master actually used two killers, Bai Xi and Lu Tiejun. In my opinion, the sect master and That old man must have some deep hatred." He said, looking at the woman beside him from time to time.
The woman said lightly: "Who knows? The sect master has always been mysterious. Recently, his temperament has changed drastically. He often gets angry with people around him. Everyone is cautious when they see him. I don't think the sect master has anything. Big plan! I heard that the old man hasn’t eaten for two days, I don’t think he can survive for long if he continues like this!"
A faint chuckle appeared at the corner of the man's mouth, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he said quietly: "In recent years, there have been many people coming and going in the Hell Gate, and none of them are top-notch masters in the world. Yanshan Ghost Sword Hu Yingqi, known as the Eight Hands of the Divine and Ghost Swordsman. Dongting Lake Thousand Hands Tai Sui Ximen Gui, has been famous in the world for many years with his moon-holding incense-cutting knife. He is rarely matched in the Sanxiang area. There is also the weird old Taoist with an expressionless face in Qingcheng Mountain. , I heard that he has mastered the extremely fast clone shadow technique, but it’s a pity that the sect master can’t keep any of these people, just because they are not the things in the pool!” A strange light flashed in his eyes, and he seemed to be full of emotion. It seems that I have infinite admiration for these characters.
The woman's long hair was scattered by the mountain wind, like black pearls
With a pair of eyes looking around in the forest, she suddenly had a sad look on her face, and said somewhat sadly: "In the world of rivers and lakes, you fight against me, fight and kill, when will the end come to an end! Living this kind of knife-tip licking blood every day It is better to cultivate the fields and be an ordinary farmer, working at sunrise and resting at sundown. Isn't it a beautiful thing to live a stable life? Alas, people can't help themselves in the world. It's not easy to get out of this devil's cave!" She murmured, feeling deeply, and the look of sadness on her face was even worse.
The two people were walking and chatting, and now they had entered the hinterland of the mountain forest. They looked around and sat down on a huge bluestone in the forest.
"Lian'er, when did you become so sentimental? This is not your usual style! I have seen you depressed recently. Is there something on your mind? Zhong Yuxuan asked us to come to the woods to check. I think there must be something else. "The intention is, in this barren mountain and wilderness, you don't even see a single ghost, how can there be any random assassins?" The man said lightly, his expression showed a bit of dissatisfaction, and a gloomy cloud of sadness climbed onto his eyebrows.
"Brother Qiang, in the past ten years or so, I have often thought of my master, my wife, and my little junior brother whose whereabouts are unknown. It was also my fault that I came here by mistake and was bewitched by that person. To be honest, I My parents died early when I was young. If my master hadn't taken me in, I might not have been alive! Now, I'm here working for the Hell Gate, which is definitely not what my master wants to see." She looked slightly pale. There was deep pain and helplessness on his cheeks, and even a self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Xu Fenglei, Zhentian, and Luo Xiangxue were crouching in the dense bushes. Listening to the conversation between the two, they couldn't help but look at each other. The rough bushes scratched their skins painfully. They didn't dare to make any movement, which alarmed these two people. People are bound to alarm the entire gate of hell.
What worries them most now is the personal safety of Liu Ruyan, Zhao Qingzhu and Chu Yunfei.
The man sat next to the woman with a calm expression. He slowly stretched out his hands to hold the woman in his arms and comforted her softly: "Mei Lian, you and I have known each other for so many years. I know that you have been swallowing your anger. The master of the house no longer treats us." As trusting as before, to tell you the truth, I am already tired of such a dark life. If you really want to leave here, why don't we find a chance to fly away together?" He stared at her with a gentle face, his eyes filled with Got the wings.
The woman sighed faintly and smiled bitterly: "Leaving here is not easy! The sect leader is a narrow-minded person. If we really betray him, he will definitely not let us go." A stern look appeared on her face. A sad look. After a while, she stood up slowly, walked forward, looked around, and suddenly said, "What do you think we can do to get out of here? To be honest, I don't want to stay for a moment! Otherwise, we can take advantage of this opportunity." The next time the sect master sends us out, he will leave and go to a far away place where no one knows us. We will remain anonymous and live an ordinary life!" Her eyes lit up again with a hint of wonder. of light.
The man sighed and said quietly: "Mei Lian, don't act impulsively. Even if we have to leave, we have to consider the long term. I have a cousin in Sichuan whom I haven't seen for many years. Maybe we can go and join him for the time being!" He frowned slightly. He frowned, seeming to be planning a plan in his mind.
There was a hint of softness in the woman's eyes, and she smiled and said: "Oh, so you also have relatives in Sichuan? To be honest, some of my father's friends are also in Sichuan, but after our family moved outside the customs, there were few of my father. I have interacted with them. When my father passed away, they came over to attend his funeral. Now, my father is no longer here. As the saying goes, when people leave, they may not want to see me anymore." As she spoke, she sighed quietly. He took a breath and looked at the distant mountain peaks, feeling deeply sad.
The man reached out and pulled the woman's shoulder, half hesitating and half relieved: "I know you miss Uncle Qin. He has been dead for many years. Sister Lian, don't think about those sad things anymore. No matter what happens in the future, I will be by your side no matter what. As long as you are willing, I will be with you to the end of the world!" He looked at her affectionately and pityingly.
The three people crouching behind the bushes listened to the man and woman talking to each other, and they felt something different in their hearts. Only then did they realize that these two people were a couple. They talked for a long time, but the three of them didn't make a sound, and they didn't dare to show up rashly. They had to hide themselves and wait patiently. The three of them looked at each other from time to time, feeling quite helpless.
The man looked up at the sky. The sun had become much gentler. He suddenly said: "It's getting late. Let's go back quickly. I don't think there will be any strangers in this wild forest. Hall Master Li I think there is an ulterior motive for asking us to keep an eye on the sentry, maybe just to test us. Last time the sect leader asked me to kill Ding Liang, he was firmly opposed to it. I think he must have a grudge against me. From now on, I have to watch out for him."
As they talked, the two slowly walked towards the cliff edge of the plank road.
