The dusk was heavy, and the smoke shrouded the vast orange grove in the white snow. The sun set in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun gradually disappeared behind the winding Ding Mountain, leaving only gray white on the sky and the earth, and the faint shadows in the distance. There were intermittent footsteps.
Two figures, one behind the other, moved forward cautiously in the snow at night.
"Brother, I still have a few old coats in my box, why don't I get them for you?" Qin Xian, who was walking behind, asked, looking at Gong Xi's tattered robes.
Congratulations hurriedly turned around and covered Qin Xian's mouth with one hand, and put the index finger on his lips: "Shh! Are you going to die? We are still wanted. There might be spies from Nanxue somewhere. Don't speak too loudly!"
Qin Xian nodded, because her mouth was covered and she couldn't make a sound, so she could only point at the clothes on Congratulations and asked with her eyes.
Congratulations glanced down at his shabby robe, took back the hand covering Qin Xian's mouth, and said, "No need, martial arts trains the body, this little snow is just a sprinkling of water."
The two walked forward for a while.
"Senior brother, where are we going? Grandpa Ge said it's not peaceful recently. It doesn't matter if I'm caught. Don't implicate you and Grandpa Ge."
"Don't listen to that old guy's nonsense. He keeps talking all day long. He is mentally ill at first glance. If he couldn't be beaten, he would have torn out his flower field and burned the paper figurine."
"Senior brother, Grandpa Ge is a good man! He is not sick!"
"Hey, you kid eats everything, isn't it? Who taught you martial arts to build your foundation? Are you still sick? Who is a grown man who grows flowers, and who is a normal person who spends a day making paper figurines?"
"I also want to grow flowers...and Grandpa Ge just makes funeral objects..." Qin Xian said weakly.
Congratulations raised his hand to strike, and the young man cooperated to dodge.
He didn't want to actually hit him, but he was somewhat satisfied when he saw the young man reacted quickly.
But when he saw the iron knot on the young man's back, he said angrily: "What are you doing carrying that broken sword? You're wasting your time. When you leave Zuzhou, I'll get one for you in Xuntiandiyoulu. It's better than this broken thing." much better."
"Is there a house in heaven and earth?"
"There are only one or nine sharp weapons in the world. There is only one Taoist sect, and there are nine houses. It means that there are houses in the world. It is said that his ancestors were the people who made weapons for Dayu. They were passed down from generation to generation. They only refined three weapons every year, and three swords even more. As soon as the new year comes out, you can exchange the sword from here for ten thousand gold. A senior in our sect once stole a sword. Do you know how much it was sold for? A mountain top! The head of that sect has a sword with nearly a thousand people. My sect paid that senior, and I also promised 30,000 medicine god money, but the money has not been settled yet, so what? It’s no better than your broken sword treasure!"
"What's the use of having a sect? Is thirty thousand medicine gods a lot of money?" Qin Xian asked with her eyes raised.
Congratulations, I opened my mouth in shock...
"Aren't you reading a book?"
"I haven't watched it for a few days."
Congratulations, he put his hand on his forehead and said helplessly: "Let's put it this way, a medicine god's coin can save you from the sword injury once. Thirty thousand can save you thirty thousand times! Do you understand?"
Qin Xian was thoughtful.
"Then...Grandpa Ge is quite rich!"
"Huh?" Congratulations were stunned by Qin Xian's words, why are you talking about the old thing again.
"The flowers and plants planted by Grandpa Ge saved my life. He also has so many flowers that have the same effect as the medicine god's money. Aren't they quite rich?"
"Then you go plant flowers too!"
"Um."
Congratulations on the galloping heart.
Xin Hao has already arrived at the destination of this trip, otherwise Gong Xiang feels that if we continue to chat, no matter how good-tempered he is, this kid will drive him crazy.
Too lazy to talk nonsense with Qin Xian, they pressed Qin Xian's back and crouched in the grass together. They pointed at the three-story pavilion in front of them and said, "Did you see that there? The target tonight is here."
But what makes Gong Xi strange is, why are there two more carriages? But thinking about it, it's not a big problem. He is still very confident in himself. Since he can't be empty-handed when he comes, he won't be empty-handed. If it doesn't work, he will put oil on the soles of his feet.
"What goal?" Qin Xian asked sideways.
"I found out about it a few days ago. There are a lot of good things. If you take them out and change hands, they will cost you at least fifty medicine god's money!"
"Senior brother..." Qin Xian hesitated.
"What's wrong?"
"Although I have entered the burglary, I don't want to steal anything. My mother taught me before that I am not allowed to steal other people's things, not even a needle or a thread." Qin Xian was confused.
"Ah, you are still a good baby!" Congratulations was very angry.
Qin Xian nodded.
"What else can you do besides nodding? Ask again whether you are going or not?" Congratulations said speechlessly.
Qin Xian shook her head.
In addition to nodding, he also shakes his head.
I was really speechless and choked.
Congratulations suddenly took a breath and said in a relaxed tone: "Then I won't embarrass you anymore. Just help me look out for the wind and I'll go. It's just that I can't take so many by myself. It seems that the willow branches! The one who purified the bottle has given up... "
As he spoke, he shrugged his shoulders and pretended to stand up, but his tattered sleeves were grabbed by the young man.
Congratulations, I was secretly happy in my heart, but I pretended to be calm on my face, and said expressionlessly: "Why are you dragging me?"
"Senior brother, do you mean Willow Branch?" Qin Xian asked in surprise.
"Yes, when I came here before, there was a pure vase on the desk on the third floor, with a few fresh willow branches inserted in it. I have never seen that fresh and tender look in all these years of traveling around, but no matter how fresh it is, it is still a Willow branches can’t be sold at a high price, so no! Take it!” Congratulations added.
"Then...senior brother, can you bring me the willow branches?" Qin Xian looked at the congratulations with some expectation.
"That won't work. I told you that I can't take it. I'm alone with two hands. I can't take it without taking it." Congratulations said this, but he glanced at Qin Xian's reaction from the corner of his eyes.
Qin Xian thought that Grandpa Ge gave her the Goddess Sword and the Sword Scripture for free, but she did not bring him the willow branch he wanted. She felt very guilty. In the past, it was because she knew that Zuzhou did not have it, but now if she knew that it did, she would still If you don’t do anything, you will really feel uneasy with your conscience, but if you take it, you will be sorry for your mother’s teachings...
It's a choice again.
Congratulations. Seeing Qin Xian hesitate, he immediately gave the final blow.
"There are two willow branches. They are too long. If some of them are broken, I don't think the owner will notice. Forget it, it is a willow branch after all, so I won't take it."
Qin Xian said: "Senior brother, I will go too!"
He thought to himself that he would just break off a small piece and return it to Xinliuding after leaving Zuzhou.
He clapped his hands in congratulations and immediately led Qin Xian around the grass to the steps of the pavilion.
Qin Xian looked at the plaque with the three characters "Wenwu Temple" written on the top of the door and wondered why she had never heard of this "Wenwu Temple" before. Could it be that it was newly built?
Congratulations and Qin Xian said: "What are you looking at? Come quickly. There was a group of black cavalry guarding here before. They were transferred by Xu Lai in recent days. You can't miss such a good opportunity."
When Qin Xian entered the main hall, her mind was attracted by the five stone statues.
Especially the last stone statue, which looked like a scholar, was lifelike, as if it were a living person. Qin Xian felt as if wherever he went, the stone statues were staring at him with burning eyes.
Subconsciously, he cupped his fists and bowed. I wonder if it was his imagination. At this time, he felt that the stone statue's eyes seemed to be much softer. It seemed that it was not strange for so many people to be polite, especially the stone statue.
Congratulations, already halfway up the stairs, Qin Xian quickly followed.
The door to the passage on the second floor is closed and locked.
Congratulations, he said sarcastically in a low voice: "Another idiot. People who use locks are the most stupid. Who doesn't know that what a thief is best at is opening locks? He might as well hang a rope and waste my energy!"
After saying that, he lowered his head and fiddled with the stone lock.
But after poking for a long time, Congratulations was sweating profusely, and the stone lock did not move at all.
"Senior brother?" Qin Xian shouted carefully.
"This is a magic weapon, it can't be opened." Congratulations said decadently.
"Senior brother, didn't you mean..."
Before Qin Xian finished speaking, she congratulated and said, "Let's go to the third floor. All the good things are there."
"division……"
"Shut up, if you say another word I will throw you off the stairs!" Congratulations said angrily.
Qin Xian had no choice but to remain silent.
It's so embarrassing. Who is this boring person? He wants to make a magic weapon stone lock to make me lose face in front of my junior brother.
"Someone!"
Congratulations stopped Qin Xian and looked in at the third staircase.
I was immediately furious, why was there only a broken table left? What about other stuff? There were many more yesterday!
Congratulations turned around and sat down sluggishly, his eyes were lifeless, and he just kept saying: "It's gone, it's all gone?"
"What's missing, senior brother?" Qin Xian asked doubtfully.
Seeing the congratulations but not replying, he was still in a daze, so he had no choice but to poke his head out and take a look for himself. As far as the eye could see, there was only one table on the entire third floor, and two little girls, one green and one yellow, leaning against the wall and sleeping.
The girl in green has round cheeks and two shallow dimples. Even when she is asleep, she is smiling playfully. On the other hand, the little girl in yellow has an average appearance and her face is a little sallow. She looks better than the girl in green. Much older.
Congratulations suddenly clapped his hands, his eyes showed a fascinating light, and said to Qin Xian: "Someone must have got there first! You dare to snatch the prey I'm targeting, it's extremely abominable!"
Seeing that the senior brother was a little frustrated, he didn't want to ask where the willow branch was. In order to explain, the senior brother pointed in the direction of the woman in green and said: "Senior brother, there is a table over there, how about it?"
"What do I need a broken table for?" Qin Xian deliberately teased Congratulations at that time.
But Qin Xian's next words made him regain his energy.
"And a hand stove."
Congratulations. After hearing this, I immediately went to look. Sure enough, I saw the girl in green holding a hand stove in her hand, which was exquisite and simple.
He immediately clapped his hands and touched it.
After thinking about it, I felt that there were only two little girls, so I was a little too cautious, so I straightened up and strutted towards the girl in green.
Qin Xian didn't dare. It was the first time that she followed her senior brother to Nanxue in a confused manner. She didn't know that she was stealing, but today was the first time. After all, she felt guilty. Still hunched over.
Congratulations, he first moved like lightning to seal the acupuncture points of the little girl in green.
Then he reached for the hand stove.
Suddenly I felt a gaze staring at me.
It's the little girl in yellow clothes and yellow face.
Congratulations, you can knock him out with just one finger.
Something that can be easily captured.
What he didn't expect was that the little girl in yellow stretched out her right hand and held his fingers, and then looked at him in disbelief:
"Click"
Two fingers were broken by the opponent.
"ah……"
