When the morning sun was about to leap out of the sky, Ranchen stood in front of the Star Lake in Mangshan, looking at the rich green in front of him. In the bamboo forest, there seemed to be wild beasts running past, and there were rustling sounds. But after so many days, He didn't see any animals running out of it.
The climate in southern Yunnan is different from that of the Central Plains. In the Central Plains, when March and April are still the spring equinox when the willows are weak and the wind is weak, summer has already entered here early, and the chirping of summer insects seems to be earlier than elsewhere.
But in this Star Lake, Ranchen frowned a little. After being here for so many days, he always felt that this Star Lake was very unusual and not very comfortable. The green bamboo forest always makes people feel full of vitality, but this lake makes people feel death-like silence and terror.
A full twelve hours have passed, and there has been no news since Miss Gu was taken away by the Mingyue Sect. With the power of the Mingyue Sect in southern Yunnan, he could not rush into the Mingyue Sect rashly, not to mention that there were still people there. A mysterious leader Ming Feng and high priest Qing Ling. For the first time, he felt his powerlessness. With the power of Yunzhong City in the Central Plains Wulin, they could do anything without scruples. But here, it was like a punch hitting cotton, and he couldn't feel it at all. The strength to come back.
Ranchen felt a little powerless. When he agreed to take over Yunzhong City from his master, he thought he could protect the people around him from any harm with the power in his hands. But all the way here, he caused a lot of harm to Gu Jianghe, who was traveling with him all the way. Now he can't tell whether the pain is because he is not as capable as he imagined, or because he failed to protect Gu. Jianghe and blame himself.
Today's sunrise seems to be later than usual. Ranchen raised his head and looked to the east with some confusion.
In the bamboo forest, the rustling sound suddenly became louder.
A blood-red robe swept across the fallen bamboo leaves on the ground, making a friction sound. The red hem was outlined with gold threads in the shape of a delicate gentian flower, and there was an emerald-green thumb on his right thumb. Wherever he walked, bamboo leaves fell one after another, as if there was a thick green rain this morning.
Hearing the sound, Ranchen retracted his gaze towards the sky. On the opposite side of the Star Lake, a blood-red figure fell into his sight.
It's him? Ranchen was shocked.
Those eyes that sucked him into the bottomless abyss at the prayer meeting.
"Yunzhong City dominates the martial arts world in the Central Plains, and even the imperial court relies on San San. I didn't know that the ambition of the Lord of Yunzhong City is so great. Does he even want to get involved in San Yunnan, which is thousands of miles away?"
The distance was so far, but Mingfeng's voice seemed to be carried along the wind, sticking close to his ears and passing him by.
Ranchen tilted his head slightly subconsciously.
The surrounding weather was bleak, with no light from the upcoming sunrise. The bamboo building behind him was dark and silent.
Mingfeng's chuckle came from the other side of the Star Lake: "City Lord, there is no need to be confused. No one can hear any of our voices in the barrier you created with illusion."
As the words fell, Ranchen's eyes showed fright for the first time.
It was like an invisible lake of stars. The man in red robe stepped on it step by step and came towards him.
Under his feet, he seemed to be able to see the ripples produced by touching the water, spreading from the soles of his feet in circles and spreading out in all directions until they disappeared.
Mingfeng, who had just walked through the center of Star Lake, stopped and looked at the man who was not too far away from him. His appearance has already changed, but his jade-like eyes are still the same as before. Mingfeng looked at him meaningfully. Unexpectedly, after so many years, he actually stood up again. You said, human beings How tenacious is his vitality?
"Master Mingfeng." The usually warm eyes of the man in green by the lake revealed a rare hint of cold color as he looked at the person standing on the lake.
"I haven't seen you for many years. I didn't expect that you would become the new city lord of Yunzhong City. This really surprises me." Mingfeng turned the jade ring on his hand with his hand. His long hair was not tied up with any hair. He casually put it on his shoulders, "I still remember the child I met at Fengling Ferry. You were about six or seven years old at that time? A waste who couldn't even walk."
One sentence finally revived Ranchen's memory. During the prayer meeting, he felt that he had seen those eyes somewhere before.
It was that night when there wasn't even a moon. The night was as thick as a black cloth, covering everyone's eyes and unable to see a trace of light. But there was still a figure that landed at Fengling Ferry.
The Yellow River rolled more violently at night for some unknown reason, and the night wind blew the clothes of the people standing at the ferry even more violently. In such a fast wind, the figure remained motionless.
As if there was only a snap of the fingers, another figure came from a distance, jumped a few times on the top of the boat parked at the ferry, and arrived in front of him in an instant.
The person standing at Fengling Ferry slowly turned around, with a sharp look in his eyes, and looked at the person standing on the top of a boat next to him, wearing a red robe, flying in the strong wind of the night ferry: "Underworld Wind."
"I didn't expect you to be such a cheerful person. It's a great honor for me to come as promised." There was a charming look in those eyes that looked like they were in the dark night at this time.
"I've brought him for you, and he's in that boat. We don't owe each other anything. I hope you don't have to embarrass me from now on." The man said coldly. Under the rich night, the man's face was hidden. Most of the way there, Mingfeng couldn't even see his true expression clearly, but he didn't care. He just stretched out his hand and touched his nose. The jade finger on his right thumb was emerald green and translucent.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, if Ayouduo knew that the man she loved and betrayed the Mingyue Sect would betray her like this, I wonder if she would be heartbroken." Mingfeng said with some sigh, "It's a pity that Ayouduo Duo is no longer innocent, it's useless for me to want her, where are her two children?"
"Not found yet."
"You must remember the terms of the negotiation with me." On the top of the boat, Mingfeng looked at him faintly.
"Of course I will remember," the man said coldly, then flicked his sleeves and put his hands behind his back, "By the way, Yunzhong City will handle that man on his own, so there is no need for the leader to worry."
Mingfeng tilted his head indifferently. Although that man was hateful, to him, apart from killing him and soiling his own hands, he was useless.
In the strong wind of the night, a tiny voice came from the weeds not far away. The voice was as subtle as a newborn kitten, but it could be easily caught by people with advanced martial arts skills.
Mingfeng's eyes suddenly let out a murderous gaze, and he was about to rush forward as soon as he moved.
But Qiu Mo was one step faster than him. He came to the grass and stretched out his hand to open it.
A small head fell in the grass, and he was covered in brocade clothes. Qiu Moyuan's eyes tightened, but the child's knees were stained with blood. He put his hand to the child's forehead. In this cold night, his forehead seemed to be getting hotter and hotter.
A sharp wind flew past behind him like a sharp blade. Feeling the danger, Qiu Moyuan hugged the child in the grass without hesitation. He turned over and dodged the attack of the underworld wind and landed not far away. on the flat ground.
"It's just a child, why would Master Mingfeng be so cruel." Holding the child tightly in his arms, Qiu Moyuan said lightly, "Besides, he has such a high fever that he can't hear what we just said. "
"City Lord Qiu is really a strange man. He is cruel and ruthless, not even sparing his own people, but his compassion overflows and he feels sorry for a strange child." Mingfeng laughed loudly, took a deep look at Qiu Moyuan, and jumped Jumping on a boat parked at the ferry, his voice came clearly in the strong wind, "Forget it, this child can be regarded as my gift to the city lord. After all, he doesn't look like that. I will definitely survive. Once we find Ayuduo's two children, our agreement will be completed. I hope the city lord won't let me down."
In Qiu Moyuan's arms, the child who was almost comatose due to high fever struggled to open his eyes. His ears were blurry and he could not hear anything. His slightly opened eyes happened to look into those dark eyes...
"It's actually you." Ranchen said in surprise.
"I didn't expect you to remember me," Ming Feng shook his head, "The way you looked at that time, it looked like you probably wouldn't survive. I didn't expect you to be so tenacious. I really shouldn't be so merciful and leave you alive."
"Of course you will regret leaving me alive." In the barrier, the space was dark as if a storm was about to happen at any time, but the man by the Star Lake seemed to be standing there like a bright light in the darkness, faintly said.
"Regret?" Mingfeng's eyes suddenly burst out with a murderous look. He raised his right hand and the jade ring in his hand suddenly made a ringing sound, and his hand was about to go straight towards Ranchen, "I will let you Look, what is regret?"——-
Snapped-----
Violent sounds bloomed in the sky above the bamboo forest, like the most brilliant fireworks on New Year's Eve.
A strong light passed through the bamboo forest and hit the Star Lake, and the sky was completely bright.
The unprepared Ming Feng lost most of his power in his right hand because the barrier was broken. A trace of blood actually dripped from his right hand and stained the jade ring in his hand.
The man in red on Star Lake turned around angrily. How could anyone break his barrier? Anger burned his eyes. After so many years, no one had ever been able to break through his barrier and hurt him, which made him sometimes relax his vigilance in the barrier.
On the other side of the Star Lake, a man in blue and white clothes stood there. His long snow-white hair shone like the water of the Star Lake in the sun. The crabapple hairpins on the capital look even more eye-catching among the greenery.
"You want to kill him, have you asked me?"
The light-colored eyes reflected the somewhat annoyed and angry look of the man in red on the lake, but a smile appeared on Wen Jirou's lips.
Mingfeng raised his hands in anger, but suddenly found that he seemed to be unable to use illusions.
"Have you discovered now that you can no longer use illusions?" Beside the Star Lake, the white-haired man looked at the man in the middle of the lake with a smile.
