"here……"
Above the sky, in a white cloud, Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao looked down together, with a bit of surprise flashing in their eyes.
Below is the clan territory of the Gusha Clan.
To say 'the scenery is picturesque' is definitely not an exaggeration.
The green mountains and green waters are magnificent.
Even Chu Xiu, who was used to seeing mountains and rivers, felt that this place was like a paradise.
"This place is very different from other tribes in southern Xinjiang." Chu Xiu said in a low voice.
Duanmu Yaoyao nodded slightly, it was indeed very different.
The other tribes in southern Xinjiang are full of primitive features, as if they have not yet been fully civilized. The environment in which the tribesmen live is not even a little worse than here.
Chu Xiu stared intently, scanning the entire Gusha tribe, and felt that the beauty here was unreal.
"Do you want to go down directly?" Duanmu Yaoyao glanced at Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu thought for a while and asked, "What is Gu most afraid of?"
Duanmu Yaoyao muttered: "Gu are insects. Some are afraid of fire and some are afraid of water. Of course, there are also some who are not afraid of water and fire."
"Among the Gu insects, there will definitely be those that confuse people." Chu Xiu whispered, "I'm a little worried that if we enter rashly, we may fall into some traps."
"If you are worried about this, then there is no need." Duanmu Yaoyao smiled confidently and said, "You seem to have forgotten who I am, your senior sister."
Chu Xiu was startled, then smiled.
I almost forgot that the seventh senior sister in front of me is a descendant of the medical family, and her medical skills are not weaker than that of Medicine King Mo Baicao.
"Anyway, in the Gusha tribe, no matter what happens, we should not separate." Chu Xiu whispered, "As long as we stay together, I am still somewhat sure that I can escape with you, senior sister, intact."
"good."
Duanmu Yaoyao nodded.
Then, the white clouds slowly fell down, shrinking continuously as they fell.
When the two of them stepped into the Gusha tribe's territory, Chu Xiu suddenly felt a prying gaze.
He raised his eyes and looked ahead, staring for a while, but no suspicious person was found.
"There are experts."
Chu Xiu secretly thought, becoming a little more wary.
The two walked side by side until they reached Dabo, the center of the Gusha tribe's territory. No one from the Gusha tribe stopped or greeted them.
I did meet some ethnic people, but they all went about their own business, as if they didn't see them.
"It's a little weird." Duanmu Yaoyao whispered.
Chu Xiu nodded, something was indeed wrong.
It stands to reason that when a stranger breaks into a tribe, the tribesmen they just met should look up and take a look.
But just now, the man chopping firewood, the washerwoman, the old man making medicine, and the children catching fish by the stream all seemed to have not seen them.
"You shouldn't have come." Suddenly, a soft sigh came from the big mooring in front.
Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao are both in awe.
"Why does this sound sound familiar?" Chu Xiu stared at the clear mirror-like lake in front of him.
Tian Tinghe, the left prime minister of Daqian Dynasty, slowly emerged from the big mooring and finally stood on the big mooring.
"It's you?!" Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao were both startled, and then both of them looked like "I see."
The Daqian royal family wanted to use troops against Southern Xinjiang and had sent many secret envoys to lobby the major clans in Southern Xinjiang.
As the left prime minister of the Daqian Dynasty, it is reasonable for Tian Tinghe to appear here.
"It seems that Emperor Wu's real goal is most likely the Gusha clan..." Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao both thought this way.
"It's me." Tian Tinghe looked at the two people and sighed, "You guys really shouldn't be here."
Chu Xiu smiled lightly and said, "You can come, but we can't?"
Tian Tinghe stared at Chu Xiu and said sincerely: "I regret coming here."
Chu Xiu was startled and said hesitantly: "You said that Senior Sister Seven and I should not come, are you worried about ruining Emperor Qian's plan, or are you saying that here..."
He didn't go into detail, but he knew that the left prime minister must understand what he meant.
Tian Tinghe nodded slightly, a look of helplessness flashed across his face.
Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao were a little more vigilant again.
"Tell me about it," Chu Xiu said.
Tian Tinghe smiled bitterly and said: "You only need to know that I am here to see you now to kill you, and you will probably understand everything."
"Kill us..." Chu Xiu's eyes moved slightly.
Tian Tinghe obviously knew that he had the "Sword of Heaven and Earth" in his body.
You still dare to say such words at this time. Obviously this is not an order from the Daqian Royal Family.
Then it can only be... the Gusha clan.
"If Tian Ting Hezhen is controlled by the Gusha Clan, and the Gusha Clan asks him to kill me, there is no reason for him not to tell me about the 'Heaven and Earth Sword' in my body..."
"At this moment, it's still here."
While his brain was spinning, Chu Xiu vaguely understood.
Someone in the Gusha clan wanted him to use the sword of heaven and earth here.
This is forcing Tian Tinghe to come here to die.
"I'm very curious." Chu Xiu looked at Tian Tinghe, "How did they control you?"
As he spoke, Chu Xiu added, "To put it bluntly, based on my understanding of you, you should be very afraid of death."
Tian Tinghe nodded, "I am indeed afraid of death. Even if His Majesty the Emperor asks me to kill you, I may not come and will find various excuses.
If I really can't deal with it, I will lose to you directly. As long as I can save one life, that's good. "
"That's strange." Chu Xiu said with a smile, "You are so afraid of death, yet so sober at the moment, and the Seventh Senior Sister next to me is the best medical immortal in the world.
Even if you are poisoned, this is not the way you should be. "
Duanmu Yaoyao also looked strange.
She knew the left prime minister fairly well, and she always acted timidly and sincerely when facing Mr. Shan from the academy.
Tian Tinghe said: "Have you ever observed this place before entering the Gusha Clan?"
Chu Xiu nodded.
"How do you feel?" Tian Tinghe asked.
Chu Xiu muttered: "The scenery is picturesque. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a land of abundance."
"Then what?" Tian Tinghe asked again.
"Then..." Chu Xiu paused and said, "Then senior sister and I came in."
Tian Tinghe sighed and said, "You should stay outside and watch for a while."
"What do you mean?" Chu Xiu frowned slightly.
Tian Tinghe said: "At first glance, this place is indeed very beautiful, as beautiful as a fairyland in a painting; but if you look at it for a while, you will find that this place is actually lifeless, like a purgatory on earth."
Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao's expressions changed.
They all recalled the people of the Gusha tribe they met along the way.
Before, I thought there was something abnormal about these ethnic groups and ignored them; now looking back, I feel that these villagers are a little weird.
Just like a doll on a string.
"When the dean ascended to heaven, some strong men directly felt the dean's departure." Tian Tinghe said softly, "What a coincidence, there is a strong man in the Gusha clan."
"How did he coerce you?" Chu Xiu asked directly.
Tian Tinghe said: "He controlled my body."
"Can he hear our conversation now?" Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly.
Tian Tinghe said: "As long as he is in the Gusha clan, no sound can be hidden from him."
"What did he want to tell me?" Chu Xiu asked.
Tian Tinghe was silent for a long time, then raised his eyes and looked at Chu Xiu, "There is no sword in your body."
Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao are both in awe.
"Who are you now?" Chu Xiu stared at Tian Tinghe.
'Tian Tinghe' said: "I have seen your master many times, and I am not sure that I can eat him."
Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao couldn't calm down anymore.
Obviously, the person speaking at this moment was no longer Tian Tinghe.
'Tian Tinghe' said: "I avoided him. Until he left this world, he didn't know I existed."
Chu Xiu sneered: "Perhaps he has known about your existence for a long time and just doesn't care."
"You are overthinking." Tian Tinghe stared at Chu Xiu, "Your body is perfect. I can smell the scent of Qilin."
This time, Chu Xiu really couldn't calm down.
Not long after he devoured Fire Qilin's essence, this guy smelled it?
"You are indeed not simple, but compared to my master, you are still far behind." Chu Xiu sneered, "You can detect the smell of Qilin, but you can't detect the sword that my master left in my body."
'Tian Tinghe' said: "That man is indeed not simple. Unfortunately, he has left this world."
"His sword is still there." Chu Xiu said calmly.
'Tian Tinghe' said: "Then give it a try."
As soon as he finished speaking, sixteen streams of water suddenly rose up from the water below Tian Tinghe's feet, attacking Chu Xiu and Duanmu Yaoyao together like sharp swords.
Chu Xiu's face turned stern, and he immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Duanmu Yaoyao. In an instant, his whole body was covered with a layer of tiny golden scales.
At the same time, a small silver horn appeared on his forehead.
Sixteen water swords all struck Chu Xiu's body without causing the slightest impact on him.
Suddenly, a picture appeared in Chu Xiu's mind.
A spur of earth protruded from the ground behind Duanmu Yaoyao, like a lightning strike. In an instant, it penetrated Duanmu Yaoyao's chest directly.
"No!"
Chu Xiu's face changed wildly, and he turned around suddenly, the tips of earth thorns appearing in his eyes.
The picture seemed to be still.
"If you really had his sword, wouldn't you be able to protect the people around you?" Tian Tinghe sneered.
Duanmu Yaoyao stared at Chu Xiu blankly, the severe pain in his chest was sweeping through his body, and an unspeakable fear was spreading in his heart.
She vaguely realized what had happened, her eyelids sank slightly, and she saw the thorns running through her chest.
"Seventh Senior Sister." Chu Xiu had endless fear in his eyes, and his voice was trembling violently.
Duanmu Yaoyao wanted to say something, but before he opened his mouth, blood filled his mouth.
"Are you scared?"
Tian Tinghe said lightly, "You are right to be afraid that she will die."
"Asshole." Chu Xiu gritted his teeth and held Duanmu Yaoyao's shoulders with both hands. Green flames spread all over Duanmu Yaoyao's body in an instant.
The earth thorns that penetrated Duanmu Yaoyao's chest were burned out in an instant.
at the same time.
The ice-colored lotus in the Qi sea of Chu Xiu's dantian began to rotate rapidly, and wisps of medicinal power were integrated into Duanmu Yaoyao's body under the pull of the Qingming Nether Fire.
"Qingming Youhuo... It seems that you have been to Qingmingyuan." Tian Tinghe whispered, "It's useless, she has lost her heart."
Chu Xiu's face turned pale. He saw the fear and confusion in Seventh Senior Sister's eyes that made him dare not look further.
