"It turns out that the Inspector is not lying. Your Majesty, you really have second thoughts!" One person said viciously.
"Insolent!" Li Ruocheng's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he immediately turned around and scolded him, raising his eyebrows and saying: "Even if I have second thoughts, even if I marry someone else, if your husband is willing to serve our religion, he will still be the Son of the Holy Son. , your status is so high, just below the leader of the church, how can you and others speak nonsense? Why, can a mere inspector embolden you? Regardless of superiority or inferiority, you should suffer the pain of having your tongue pulled out by me!"
"Your Majesty, please calm down!" The other person's face was like reading a book, and he said with a smile: "My Majesty, please listen to what I say, today's world, except for the Beiminghai, has surrendered to the imperial court, even the Red Army Lord Lotus, she dare not disobey Wang Hua, and the patrol envoys exercise their own power. Your Majesty, please get on board. We are all little ants, and we cannot afford to offend both sides. My brother has no intention of offending. Please bear with us for many years. For the sake of loyalty, there is no merit but hard work. I hope you will forgive me!" After saying this, he bowed and knelt on the ground again.
"You..." Li Ruocheng became even more angry when she heard this. Li Xiu's words just now came true. It was true that people's hearts were at odds with each other. She never thought that these two people would betray her and angrily shouted: "You are looking for death!"
Just as she was about to take action, Li Xiu held her back and said, "Sister, don't fall into the enemy's trick. What's more, what he said is absolutely right. The situation is a foregone conclusion and it is difficult to reverse it. Even your master can't." It is a fact that you dare to openly disobey the emperor's order. These little shrimps under your hands have been living in such an environment all year round. They are influenced by their ears and eyes, and their minds are influenced by profit. It would be strange if they are not brainwashed. Why are you so angry about this? I have said before, neutrality Sooner or later, those people will be dragged in, we can't escape, so why not go see the inspector and kill him, which can also relieve your anger!"
"No!" Li Ruocheng saw that Li Xiu didn't seem to be joking and was preparing to stand up for herself. Her heart warmed up and she comforted Li Xiu and said, "Li Xiu, I knew it would be difficult, but I want to After leaving such a whirlpool, I no longer want to fight. It's a pity that I only met you now. Now that I have met you, how can I make the same mistakes again? Li Xiu, I won't put you in danger. Let's go and let them Let’s go fight!”
"Are you telling the truth?" Li Xiu was also moved in his heart.
"Let's go!" Li Ruocheng pulled Li Xiu, turned around and stepped out, shrunk to an inch, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.
Not far from the other end of the village, on a hill, a dozen men in black were scattered.
"Huitong, I won. Tang Ruoguo really didn't dare to come to see me, which proves that I was right. Remember to deliver the bet you just promised me to my house at night. I want to enjoy it. This damn place is even It's troublesome to find a beautiful woman, but it really hurts me!" A man in black in the middle spat and said with an unhappy face.
"It's an advantage for you. Those are the two little sheep I just caught last night!" Master Gray Eyes said: "But it's really beyond my expectation. The majestic fairy empress of the Red Lotus Sect has eight colds and eight heats. The deputy commanders of the two divisions actually ran away with a young boy. I deserved to lose! However, she was such a charming beauty. Now that she has betrayed the master, that old witch of the Red Lotus Sect should be anxious. Brother Heisheng, don’t you want to take this opportunity to have a taste?”
"Bah! What kind of fairy empress is she? She's just a bitch who does everything she can. If not, how could she have been favored by the old witch Red Lotus at such a young age and accept her as a closed disciple? Have you forgotten everyone in the Red Lotus Sect? What do the fairies of this generation do? But Hui Tong, if you are interested, you can try it. After all, everyone has their own preferences for carrots and cabbages." Heisheng chuckled, then waved his hand and said : "This matter is over for the time being. I'm leaving. The fun in Bei Minghai has just begun, and I have to be busy for a few more days. Huitong, if Tang Ruo betrayed the Red Lotus Sect, it would be tantamount to betraying the general, your commander-in-chief. I can't stay idle anymore. I will be visiting Beiminghai in person in the near future. I think your happy days are only a few days away. Enjoy your time." If he had something to say, he left with the two men in black. , the figure flashed and quickly disappeared.
"Fairy? Bitch? It's interesting..." Master Gray Eyes didn't seem to know much about the Red Lotus Sect. At this time, his eyes instantly turned gray, and his expression became extremely terrifying. He stared at her like that The hungry wolf of prey.
The night was getting darker, and a waterfall flowed down. Li Xiu had washed away the blood scabs early, and there was not even a scar on his body. He put on a set of clean clothes, held the tip of the grass in his mouth, and leaned against his back. Sitting on the boulder beside the pool in a daze.
There was movement behind him. Li Ruocheng came to the water pool and started to wash himself in the water. Li Xiu had no intention of taking a peek. He remembered that a few days ago, Huzi passed his test and successfully hunted an adult sword. Toothed cow. In the same place, things have changed. The corners of his mouth turned up in an arc. He suddenly discovered that the encounters in life were really interesting. Fortunately, Li Xiu had long been accustomed to wandering around and being alone in such a situation. He didn't feel bored spending the night in the mountains and fields, with the earth as his bed and the sky as his quilt. On the contrary, he enjoyed this feeling very much!
Picking up the Fengwu Guqin, which had a burnt surface, Li Xiu plucked the strings, and it turned out that it could still make sound. The Guqin was not completely burned, but the head of the instrument was more severely burned, and it was no longer beautiful. However, important parts such as the zhen and string are preserved and can still be used. This Qin was a five-stringed Qin. As soon as Li Xiu got started with it, he realized something, plucked the strings casually, and sang a song "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night": The tide of the Spring River reaches the level of the sea, and the bright moon on the sea rises with the tide, and the twinkling waves follow the thousands of waves. Thousands of miles away, there is no moon on the spring river! The river flows around the meadow, and the moonlight shines on the flowers and forests like snowflakes. Frost flies in the sky, and the white sand on the terrace is invisible. The river and the sky are all colorless, and there is a lone moon in the bright sky...
He was currently wearing loose old clothes that didn't fit at all and were still patched. They were obviously clothes taken from a certain village. He had no shoes, was barefoot, had a bare head, and had a grass tip in the corner of his mouth. Didn't fall off. However, under the moonlight, Li Ruocheng, who was still washing his body in the pool, couldn't help but froze for a moment. She never thought that she would be attracted by such a funny-looking scene.
"The Greatest Way to Simplicity, is what I pursued before really wrong?" Li Ruocheng once had such a question. Later, she forgot that she was still in the water. Li Xiu's piano sound was not melodious and beautiful, but just barely harmonious. The poems he sang rhymed, but Li Ruocheng felt that it was the sound of nature. She suddenly liked this feeling. She suddenly felt that there was no reason why patched clothes could not be accepted. She also understood at the same time. Li Xiu, why did he have such advanced cultivation at such a young age? He must have suffered a lot and lived in a foreign land, but he never felt bitter. Li Ruocheng gradually yearned for the hometown he mentioned.
As the night got deeper, the two of them sat on the ground and roasted a roe deer that they had killed casually for food. There was no seasoning. Li Xiu used local materials and reluctantly seasoned them. They ate some to satisfy their hunger. The two of them took turns to watch the night. Li Xiu stayed up until midnight, and Li If he stayed in the middle of the night and had nothing to do all night, the next day at dawn, the sky became darker and darker, and the temperature did not rise. Even Li Xiu suddenly felt the coldness and he opened his eyes.
Li Ruocheng just walked out of the forest, picking some ripe wild fruits in his hand, and wearing the animal skin hat on his head. He obviously felt the temperature drop and the strong chill.
Li Xiu smiled and said, "Autumn is getting deeper and the mountains will be closed due to heavy snow. Let's make plans early in the morning."
"Let's eat something first." Li Ruocheng washed the wild fruits, and Li Xiu also got busy. He washed himself casually, then rubbed his hands together and grilled the roe deer meat with his flaming palm.
Li Ruocheng said: "I think you are used to life in the wild and have no intention of fame or fortune. I hope you can find your way back so that we don't have to see my master."
Li Xiu suddenly put down the meat in his hand, his face straightened, and he said: "Food and sleeping in the open is not a happy way. Besides, there are some things that cannot be avoided by force."
"What's wrong?" Li Ruocheng looked at him.
"There are experts." Li Xiu stood up.
Looking around, there was heavy mist in the distance, the cold wind was howling nearby, and the trees in the mountains were rustling. At some point, a man in black walked out of the forest.
Li Ruocheng also stared blankly.
"Tang Ruo, when you see me, why don't you come and pay your respects?" The voice of the man in black was colder than the cold wind, as cold as a blade.
Li Ruocheng was surprised: "Why is it you?"
The man in black said: "You haven't seen me for three years. Three years ago, I secretly entered the Beiming Sea under the orders of the general. Originally, you were the one who led the troops here this time. It was the general who came here." Once you pass the test, you will be promoted to the position of commander-in-chief and take my place. I have no objection, because I have more important things to do. But your recent actions have made no achievements, which really disappoints me. , come back with me and accept the punishment. For the sake of you and I working together for many years, I will try my best to save your life!"
"Save my life? The price is to be your cauldron?" Li Ruocheng sneered: "It's useless to talk more, to fill up the gaps, you think you have the true inheritance of Xin Luohe, you have always been arrogant, you didn't come to me Forget about the trouble, now that it’s here, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”
"Really? Are you officially challenging me?" The man in black remained indifferent, as if he didn't like Li Ruocheng at all. Instead, he stared at Li Xiu, but still said: "Don't think you have found a You dare to be so presumptuous in front of me. I know exactly how many hairs you have on your body. You are nothing but a rotten bitch. If it weren’t for the sake of the old demon Honglian, I would have sucked all your soul dry. Yuan."
call! Saying this in front of Li Xiu, it was like a sharp stab in Li Ruocheng's heart, and she suddenly exploded!
"Haha." A chuckle sounded like a spring breeze. It was Li Xiu's laughter that made her regain some sense. Li Xiudao: "Whether it's a bitch or a chaste and virtuous woman, it has its own reasons for the life of a person and the spring of grass and trees. If you want to be respected by others, you must first learn to respect others. I am not Ruocheng's cauldron. I He is her guardian."
"Oh? Ruocheng?" Pique's expression changed slightly. She didn't expect that Tang Ruo had even changed his name.
Li Xiudao: "If you take advantage of the righteousness of heaven and earth, and control the convenience of the six qi, you take the name of Ruo Cheng. Oh, but people like you will not understand this truth. Why, do you think you are sure? Beat me?"
Pi Que said: "Who are you?"
Li Xiudao: "As the commander-in-chief, you are not well-informed. Without Ruocheng, your position as commander-in-chief will not be shaken. I really don't know what kind of brain you have. Now that the imperial court wants to expand, people are restless, and everyone Everyone wants to get more benefits. For you, this is a good thing. How many people want to see you kill each other so that you can reap the benefits, but you obediently come here to fight for your life. Are you sure that you, the commander-in-chief, are not related to you? ? Arrogance has to pay a price, and people only have one life!"
Pique was silent for a moment and said, "What a sharp mouth!"
Li Xiu smiled and said: "So if you leave the General's Mansion, the position of deputy commander will be empty now, and someone will compete for the throne. You happen to have important things and can't take care of both. Doesn't this buy you time? I have saved you. Your position? You should be grateful to Ruocheng."
"Yes, I really should thank you." Pique seemed to understand at once, and said: "You are in ragged clothes. It seems that you are short of money. Take it!" He took out a black bag from his arms and threw it to Li Xiu. Then he turned around and left without any delay.
"This is a man who understands." Li Xiu thought this man was very interesting and shook the black bag. It turned out that it was not an ordinary bag, but a Qiankun Dharma bag. There were a lot of spiritual stones and coins in it, but Li Xiu's face immediately changed. Shen said: "There are still people. I want Huangque behind!" As soon as his voice fell, he had already rushed out quickly. Li Ruocheng also felt something was wrong and quickly followed.
Master Gray Eyes was hiding in the dark, very far away, and he actually saw the commander-in-chief. He thought there was going to be a big battle, but he didn't expect to retreat. Is that boy so strong? This was beyond his expectation, but he couldn't hear the conversation. When he saw Li Xiu and Li Ruocheng approaching at high speed, he immediately knew that his whereabouts had been exposed and something was wrong. He was very brave and did not escape. Instead, he touched the ring on his middle finger, which was also a space magic weapon, and pulled out a large, shiny black bow.
This big bow was as tall as a man, but there was no bow string. He bit the tip of his tongue, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out, all of which was absorbed by the big bow. Then, visible to the naked eye, a red bow string appeared, and then he took it out from the space magic ring. Two long arrows, but these long arrows are blood red, with runes and ghost faces painted on them. They don't look like dead objects. The runes are wriggling and the ghost faces are roaring in pain!
