The cold moon hangs high in the sky, its radiance falls on the world, and there is no place that is not desolate.
The heavy rain kept falling, and Yu Qin had been taken to the cell at this time, shrinking in fear in a corner of the cell with straw on the ground.
It was already past midnight, and through the small barred window on the cell, Yu Qin could just see the moon outside the window.
The moon was incomplete, half of it was missing, which made it even more desolate.
She stretched out her hand, and the sparse white moonlight shone on the palm of her hand. She clenched her fist, and the moonlight shone on her four knuckles. She covered the knuckles with her other hand, and the moonlight shone on the back of this hand again.
Anyway, I just can’t catch it, it seems like I can’t catch anything.
Yu Qin lowered his head in despair, not looking at the moon, and began to think of that person again unconsciously.
She clearly hoped that that person would stop caring about him and head north as soon as possible, but she still had a small hope in her heart, hoping to see him again.
Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night, not only Yu Qin, but also no one in Yi Mansion is sleeping.
Not long after Zuo Qiuxun left, he turned back again, saying that he was going to arrange some things. So the three people braved the heavy rain and plotted a plan to hijack Xingqing Prison in the pavilion.
They said they were planning together, but in fact it was mainly Zuo Qiu Xun who made the plans, but when Zuo Qiu Xun came up with a complete plan. Xu Huaigu and Huang Shan both nodded in admiration and thought it was wonderful.
As expected of a professional swordsman assassin, he is extremely proficient in formulating plans, taking into account various situations and possible accidents, and is flawless. But a plan is still a plan after all. When it is actually implemented, you will know that the difficulties and dangers involved are completely different from those at the time of planning. No matter how meticulous the plan is, it will not be able to keep up with the changes. When the time comes, it will still have to rely on the improvisation of a few people, and accidents will happen outside the plan. , which is also the risk that must be taken in this prison hijacking.
The three of them continued to make final adjustments to the plan, thinking about how to make the plan more perfect.
Time passed quickly, the sound of rain gradually stopped, a few cockcrows were heard from the horizon, and it was almost dawn. Only then did the three of them finalize the final plan, and then returned to their respective positions to start planning tonight's prison hijacking operation. .
Huang Shan was very excited because he was a part of tonight's prison robbery. This is a prison that hijacks the capital of a country. It is not a small matter. If this thing is successful, it will be enough to boast on the road for a lifetime.
Ye Xiu has never been afraid of death. If he can leave his name in the history books, it will be the best ending.
Huang Shanyan returned to the original route and returned to his room with excitement to prepare for the prison robbery. He saw Yi Yun still standing in the same place as last night, still holding the umbrella, so he stepped forward and asked: "Miss Yi, have you stood all night? I'm afraid your body can't bear it. Go back to the room to rest." Well. Xu Huaigu and I will resolve this matter about Yu Qin, so don’t worry."
Yi Yun took a step forward, walked to Huang Shan, put away the green folding umbrella, gave it back to Huang Shan, and said hesitantly: "Huang Xianzhang, there is one more thing I don't know whether to talk about or not."
"Just say it."
"After your prison robbery this time, I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in Xingqing City any longer, right? When the time comes, you leave Xingqing and what will you do if you agree to help my father find his broken soul?"
Huang Shan frowned. This was indeed the case. He had firmly agreed to Yiyun at that time, and he couldn't go back on his words now.
Huang Shan thought for a while and said, "Take me to see your father. I haven't seen him for a while. I'll go see how he is doing now."
Yiyun agreed and led the way.
At this time, for no reason, a few more drops of rain fell from the sky. Yiyun quickly held up the umbrella again, walked quickly to his side, and held the umbrella for her.
Huang Shanting was very happy. In the past, he always crawled around in the mountains and fields, looking for opportunities to break through between life and death. When had he ever had such an experience with red sleeves accompanying him and holding an umbrella for him?
After thirty years of struggling in the spiritual world, he was still at the bottom and was spurned by the immortal disciples. However, in the world of ordinary people, it seemed that he was still a high-ranking monk.
In the eyes of mortals, a monk is a monk, and no matter who they are, they all have the highest respect.
As soon as Huang Shan's thought came up, he was immediately startled and quickly suppressed the thought. He remembered what his master had said to him before, Ye Xiu's life was all about enduring hardship, and he could only endure hardship. Never think about pleasure, otherwise death would be imminent.
The inner demon that had just emerged in Huang Shanhao's heart was eliminated before Huang Shanhao realized it. This is the battle between monks and inner demons. It is everywhere. As long as bad thoughts come together, inner demons will follow immediately.
Yi Yun's father, Yi Xingping, was still lying flat on the plain bed. He was still unconscious, but his complexion was much better than when Huang Shan first saw him. His face was rosy, his hair was as dark as ink, and his skin was also dull. It has returned to its normal brown color, is full of elasticity, and is very healthy physically. As for being unconscious, it's still a question of the soul.
Huang Shan re-examined Yi Xingping's body and said: "His life is not in danger for the time being, but if he does not have a soul, he still cannot wake up. We will consider this matter in the long run. Since your father was attacked by a ghost in Lichuan Mountain in Yamato, there is a breakthrough It's still there. After we rob the prison tonight, we will go north and leave Dayu Country for Yamato Country. You will wait for us at the White Sea of Yamato Country in a month, okay?"
Yi Yun's eyes turned red and she asked, "Exian, do you mean what you say? Don't try to tease me."
"Don't worry, I keep my word."
Yi Yun added: "Master Immortal, didn't you say that ghost is very powerful? It requires at least a six-level monk to defeat it? Will we be able to find such a master after we go to Lichuan Mountain?"
Huang Shan shook his head and said: "There is no need to go to such trouble. As long as the Pipa woman is willing to help, it will be safe now."
Yiyun said in surprise: "Then thank the Immortal!"
Seeing Yiyun's surprise, Huang Shan couldn't bear to tell her the truth.
Although there was hope of defeating those ghosts as long as Zuo Qiuxun took action, Huang Shan could not come up with conditions for her to take this risk, just like Tang Fu, the housekeeper of the Yi family, could not come up with conditions that would satisfy Huang Shan that day.
Huang Shan sighed in his heart, thinking that this matter should be left alone for the time being. The imminent prison robbery was more important, so after bidding farewell to Yiyun, he continued to return to the room to make preparations.
...
In the horse market in Xingqing City, Xu Huaigu was discussing the price of horses with a horse seller in front of a stable. The horse seller could see Xu Huaigu's anxious look at a glance and insisted that Xu Huaigu was in urgent need of these horses, so he deliberately raised the price much too high. Xu Huaigu knew what he was thinking and didn't bother to expose it. It's just some worldly gold and silver, so there's no need to take it too seriously, but this incident still makes Xu Huaigu even more disappointed in people's hearts.
Xu Huaigu finally bought five horses, and then led the horses out of the Xingqing City Gate to a small wood outside the south gate of Xingqing City.
He found a secret location, tied the horse's bridle on a big tree, and then sat quietly aside, starting to adjust his breath and prepare for tonight's action.
According to the plan, although Xu Huaigu's combat prowess is on par with Huang Shan's, his level is still too low and his spiritual energy is easily exhausted, so he is only responsible for the work of supporting outside the city. The real ones to participate in the fight are Zuo Qiuxun and Huang Shan. Two people.
He looked at the ferry in the distance. People and caravans were still coming and going, no different from usual times, but Xu Huaigu knew that things would be different here tonight.
He was somewhat lamenting the fickleness of things in the world.
...
On Sanzhu Street, a woman carried a pipa on her back. However, perhaps because she was worried about being too public, she unexpectedly did not put on red clothes. Instead, she wore plain white clothes and a bamboo hat. A black veil hung from the bamboo hat, covering her face, and she walked into a talisman shop wearing this outfit.
She looked around the counter a few times, but didn't seem to find the talisman she wanted, so she asked the man who was sitting behind the counter and teasing a canary bird boredly: "Do you have any earth-shrinking talismans here?"
As soon as the man heard the Shrinking Earth Talisman, he immediately stopped teasing Xiaoque and whispered: "Fellow Taoist, don't be so straightforward. It's better to go into the inner hall to discuss such important matters in detail."
The Shukuchi Talisman is a fifth-grade talisman with a very high rank. It is not something that ordinary monks can use. However, its effect is also extremely significant. It can move people to a place one foot away in an instant, and Hard to detect. This characteristic makes Shuchi Fu become a key move in some battles. If used wisely, it can reverse life and death.
Not long after, Zuo Qiuxun walked out of the inner hall again.
She deliberately lowered her hat and walked out of the talisman shop quickly.
This talisman shop only sells one Shuchi talisman, and the price is extremely high, costing fifteen large beads.
Fortunately, Zuo Qiuxun received a high reward for his mission to assassinate the official yesterday, so it was easy to buy the talisman. She also needs to go to other places to buy Shuchi talismans. According to the established plan, at least two are needed to make it feasible. In addition, the more other talismans, the better.
It was not until evening that Zuo Qiuxun returned to Yi's house. Huang Shan was also in Yi's house at this time and was ready.
Huang Shan asked: "Is everything going well?"
Zuo Qiuxun nodded: "It has been arranged."
Huang Shan looked at the bloody sun in the distance and smiled a little crazily: "Tonight, Xingqing City will know that we are not easy to mess with!"
Zuo Qiuxun reached out to Huang Shan.
Huang Shan wondered: "What are you going to do?"
Zuo Qiuxun said of course, "Take out the bottle of wine from last night and let me take another sip."
Huang Shan lied: "I've finished drinking."
Zuo Qiu Xun laughed sarcastically: "I obviously kept a sip last night. You must be reluctant to drink it just because you look so stingy. I don't know if you will survive after tonight, why don't you take it out quickly?"
Huang Shan still couldn't bear it, and said: "Keep it for now, and drink it after tonight is over. It's just a thought."
Zuoqiu Xundanfeng looked at the setting sun in the distance and said: "Then leave it, leave it first. I like this saying."
After saying that, Zuo Qiuxun didn't stop and said, "Then I'll go first, and you can follow the plan later."
Huang Shan nodded and said, "Okay, I know what to do. I'll save that sip of wine for you to drink tomorrow."
Zuo Qiu found no joy or sorrow and walked out of Yi's house.
Huang Shan watched her go away, and the world in his heart that had been worn to pieces by life seemed to be reborn again.
