After stretching, a satisfied smile appeared on Crow's face. Li Xiuyuan would not often bring him to eat delicacies like beef noodles.
In order to take a shortcut, Li Xiuyuan planned to go through an alley on the right side of the market and head to the south gate.
He wanted to get ahead of the army before Qingyue led the large group of people out of the city.
It was midsummer now. If he didn't get up early and go on the road, he would be exposed to the sun at noon. In this case, Li Xiuyuan would rather get up early and travel late.
When he thought of that guy Jun Buyu, Li Xiuyuan still didn't understand that a monk in the extraordinary realm could sleep like a pig and even be attacked by others and seriously injured.
This is simply a disgrace to the Demon Realm, what else should I say?
He planned to go to Gaoping, and when Gao scolded this guy fiercely, he was also a man who had been on the Shura battlefield, so why did his boat capsize in the gutter?
There are very few pedestrians in the alleys. It seems that the people in the city are either getting up early to go to the fields to be busy, or setting up stalls and doing business.
Li Xiuyuan rarely enjoyed this free time, talking to himself and walking slowly towards the entrance of the alley.
When the crow was full, it simply lay on his shoulder and took a nap. It got up early today.
A horse was pulling a cart of grass in front of him, and the driver was humming a song. He had obviously just come back from cutting grass in the field, and he was sitting on the front of the cart humming a tune.
Li Xiuyuan looked at the scene in front of him, which reminded him of the time when he left and went to study with his husband.
Only the crow is pretending to be dead and does not hum.
Just as they passed the carriage, there was a soft sound of "Whoosh, Whoosh!", but then three iron arrows passed over the carriage and flew from a dilapidated ruin on the opposite side of the alley.
Seeing that this arrow was about to pierce the coachman's body and Li Xiuyuan's chest...
In the flash of lightning, Li Xiuyuan pinched a leaf between his fingers and flew out in an instant.
Danger after danger, the fallen leaves turned into a flying sword, knocking down the iron arrow that was about to pierce the coachman... but the other two flew towards him like poisonous snakes.
The moment he was about to stab Li Xiuyuan's chest, there was a soft ding, as if he had touched steel...
But it was the crow with its eyes closed, flapping its wings like a spiritual sword, and knocked down the two iron arrows.
The coachman screamed in fright and fell instantly from the carriage.
The horse was startled and roared desperately, trying to overturn the carriage behind it and run away alone.
"Hi!" sounded.
Before another hidden arrow was fired from across the street, before the crow flew out from Li Xiuyuan's shoulder...
A thin sword suddenly stabbed out from the grass piled on the carriage, and then a thin man in black lifted the grass pile and stabbed Li Xiuyuan, who was less than three feet away from the carriage, with a sword from behind.
A single sword shocks the city!
Just when the tip of the sword was about to pierce Li Xiuyuan's chest, there was a sound of "Buzz!" and a faint golden light enveloped him instantly.
How can the Buddhist body, which has undergone the second reincarnation of Nirvana, be damaged by a dark sword?
He yelled, "Go and chop down those guys across the street!"
Before he finished speaking, the crow was already heading towards the ruins across the street like lightning, even faster than lightning!
when! when! when!
The assassin's swordsmanship was extremely fast. Before Li Xiuyuan could turn around, he had already thrust out three swords in succession!
In a flash of light, he saw the golden bell of Buddhism shining like golden light. Unwilling to do so, the man in black changed his moves and struck at Li Xiuyuan's head!
However, at this moment, Li Xiuyuan flew up and headed across the street. He wanted to prevent the three assassins on the opposite side from escaping.
He didn't pay attention to the guy behind him at all. His steps seemed chaotic, but in fact he was flying towards the ruins in the alley like a breeze.
The man in black holding the rapier was shocked and angry. He didn't expect that the young man in front of him would ignore him.
"Where to run!" He thought Li Xiuyuan wanted to run away.
You must know that assassins have always been famous for their fast swords, and with the blessing of black mist, how terrifying is their speed?
The coachman who fell to the ground never expected that there would be an assassin hidden in his carriage. When he saw a sword heading towards Li Xiuyuan, he was so frightened that he shouted loudly: "Kids, be careful!"
A surging sword energy, like waves breaking the shore, came straight towards Li Xiuyuan!
Li Xiuyuan was so angry that he reached out to the big tree next to him. In an instant, he picked off a green leaf and shot a water-like sword behind him with a snap of his fingers!
He was worried about the crow, but he didn't expect that the guy behind him didn't know whether to live or die. How could he not be angry?
"ah……"
Before Li Xiuyuan's water-like sword flew out, a pitiful howl came from the ruins, followed by a rattling voice: "He actually plotted against your uncle and is seeking death!"
And when he flew towards Li Xiuyuan with a sword, the man in black had a look of horror on his face...
Because he felt a murderous aura... If the young man in front of him had a long sword in his hand, he probably wouldn't be able to jump out of the carriage...
He was so frightened that he couldn't imagine the consequences!
It's too scary. This boy is only thirteen years old at most. Even if he practiced martial arts from his mother's womb, he wouldn't be able to exude such terrifying murderous aura, right?
At the moment of death, he finally discovered the terrifying Ruoshui sword between the young man's fingers...
However, before he could react, he felt a chill on his neck, and then his whole body was frozen in mid-air, as if he had hit a huge golden bell.
"Ding!" was the sound of the rapier falling to the ground!
"Pfft!" A fountain rushed out from his neck, and then disappeared again!
"Whoosh!" With a sound, the crow flew out of the ruins, and then three faint flames burned from the ruins!
It was only then that the coachman discovered that his horse, which was about to go crazy, was actually staying on the side of the street, lowering its head and eating the grass on the ground.
He was so frightened that he quickly clasped his fists and said to Li Xiuyuan: "Child, hurry up and leave. This is killing someone. This is serious!"
Li Xiuyuan waved to him: "Old man, please leave first. I'm going to call someone over to handle this matter."
When the old man heard this, he was so frightened that he took the horse and headed towards the market without saying a word.
What to say? The old man felt as if he had just lost his life. He was so confused that he had to go home and worship God.
However, Li Xiuyuan did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he sent a message to Qin Miaoyu, who was in a daze at the city lord's mansion, and asked her to bring a team of guards and rush over as quickly as possible.
Pointing at the masked man in black on the ground, Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "When the army leaves, you must be careful here to avoid being plotted against."
Li Xiuyuan, who originally wanted to clap his hands and leave, thought about it and called Qin Miaoyu over.
Unlike Chu Ruoyu and Hua Chenyu, Qin Miaoyu had been on the battlefield with Princess Qingyue and understood the stakes involved. This was why he handed this place over to Qin Miaoyu.
Qin Miaoyu asked a group of guards from the City Lord's Mansion to drag away the man in black on the ground, then came up and took Li Xiuyuan's hand to check it over.
After confirming that there was no problem, he muttered to himself: "It's incredible, these guys are crazy!"
Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "It seems that what happened here has spread to the Demon Realm. You should be more careful in the city in the future."
Qin Miaoyu nodded: "Don't worry, I won't let them go out alone."
"Princess Qingyue and the others have already left?" Li Xiuyuan did not expect that he would get up early and catch a late gathering.
Qin Miaoyu replied: "The princess and her people just went to the military camp outside the city, it shouldn't be that fast."
"Give me a horse and I'll go first!"
Li Xiuyuan took a horse from the guard, got on it, and replied to Qin Miaoyu: "Remember, if it doesn't work, just close the city gate, seal it off for a few days, and inspect it carefully."
After saying that, without waiting for her reply, he spurred his horse and ran towards the south gate.
"Wait for me!" the crow croaked, turning into lightning and chasing after him.
An angry Qin Miaoyu kicked her ass: "I still have something to say, so I ran away!"
From a distance, Li Xiuyuan's voice came: "If you have anything to say, wait until I come back from the Demon Realm."
Li Xiuyuan didn't know whether Qin Miaoyu told Qingyue and others about the last thing.
After riding out of the city, he rode Juechen far away from Baijin City and headed towards the Demon Realm.
The army moved at such a speed that it was unnecessary to think about it. It would take less than four or five days to reach Gaoping, and it would take less than three days for him to see Jun Buyu with the crow.
In the dead of night, beside the green mountains and woods.
The crow lay aside and snored, guarding a fire while Li Xiuyuan cooked a pot of tea alone.
Tonight, the moon is dark and the wind is high. There is not even a night bird coming out to look for food inside or outside the woods. It has obviously returned to its nest and fell asleep. Only summer fireflies are flying up and down in the woods.
Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Li Xiuyuan took out the flying sword. The flames reflected a faint golden light, illuminating his face.
While chatting, Li Xiuyuan finally took out a piece of dragon skin that the old Taoist priest from Peach Blossom Spring had prepared for him, and took out the iron needle and silver thread he bought in Baijin City.
As the night progressed, the mountain breeze gave off a slightly cool feeling, which was his favorite time of year.
One stitch after another, even with his eyes closed, he could see the dragon skin in his hand sewing the scabbard of the golden sword.
However, when he was threading the needle, he did not last for half an hour before gently pulling out the traces imprinted on his heart, like a silver thread.
Mother hands line, wandering clothing.
Only when there is no one in the dark, will he inadvertently think of his mother who is far away in the nine heavens, rushing toward him like a river bursting from its embankment.
Thoughts of family kindness were like an arrow passing through the years, penetrating into his skin, instantly piercing into his chest, then bursting out, and finally condensing into a line of frost...
The wind and frost of the years were like the wrinkles on his mother's face, so clearly reflected in his divine sea.
"Alas..."
A soft sigh spread far away in the dark night and spread in all directions.
Suddenly I came back to my senses. My mother's current cultivation level was at least that of the Void Refining Realm. How could she be like the woman from Fengyun City, with her face covered with the wind and frost of the years?
The stars all over the sky fell, turning into a dance of fish and dragons, and finally submerged quietly into Li Xiuyuan's body.
At this moment, the young man under the starry sky became one with the world. He was the brightest star among the stars.
The crow lay aside and said something in his sleep.
Borrowing Li Xiuyuan's spiritual energy, the crow was also bathed in the starlight at this time, and its whole body was shining with a faint light, like a star from the night sky, falling next to Li Xiuyuan.
At this moment, a "ding!" sounded!
But the golden flying sword in Li Xiuyuan's hand suddenly flew up, ignoring the dark night in front of him, and flew silently into the vast night fog ahead like lightning.
"Ah..." An exclamation and a scream gradually disappeared in the night, and the vast night fog came in, as if nothing had happened.
"Whoosh!" With a sound, the flying sword spun back from the darkness and landed quietly next to Li Xiuyuan without even a drop of blood on it.
Not far away, a string of blood beads gently dripped and fell on the grass. It was unknown whether it was an assassin or a monster coming to attack at night.
At this time, Li Xiuyuan had fallen into a strange state. While sewing the scabbard in his hand with his eyes closed, he thought about flying into the night sky and touching the brightest star.
Dots of starlight reflect the Milky Way, slowly rotating in the nine heavens, day and night.
In a daze, Li Xiuyuan, who transformed into starlight, suddenly sighed, not because the scabbard in his hand was not sewn yet, but because of his mother in heaven.
The sky is boundless, like a personal favor...
