The next morning, Nalan Jinse woke up and saw that Nalan Fengjin was still asleep, so she continued to sleep. However, when she woke up again, she found that there was no one around her, and there was a gold medal and a gold medal on her pillow. A note: "When you meet in Lincheng again, take care. Don't forget to be accompanied by a waiter. Seeing the Phoenix Golden Order is like seeing me in person. Keep it."

Nalan Jinse held the Phoenix Golden Order tightly in his hand. He heard that the power of Phoenix Villa had spread throughout the vast rivers and lakes, and it was enough to compete with the entire imperial court.

Is this like my sister giving the entire Phoenix Villa to herself? ! This is not a gift. This is giving her a martial arts empire. Nalan Jinse's hand holding the Phoenix Golden Token trembled a little: "Sister..."

After Nalan Fengjin left the palace, he went back to call Chu Tianyou, and the two of them rode all the way south. Nalan Fengjin disguised himself as the Phoenix Sect Master again.

Along the way, the two of them stopped and went, sightseeing, eating well, and living well, which was very comfortable.

These two people have been walking for a long time, and sometimes they inevitably feel bored. Whenever they are free, they will think of the lively college life in the past, and think of Nalan Hanyi and the others. Although they still hate them for peeking that night, they can't say no in their hearts. Qing actually missed them a little.

It's ridiculous to say that even though I was in a hurry that day, I accidentally took away the two paintings painted by Nalan Hanqi. One was the beautiful scenery of Ningshan Mountain, and the other was of beautiful flowers. she,

She originally borrowed it to read, but she took it away. Now she always carries it with her. She occasionally takes it out to look at it, which makes her laugh unconsciously.

Thinking about Nalan Hanyi again, although he often pushed her out as a shield, he often stood up to her. Especially when he thought about how he always made Nalan Hanyi look helpless, he no longer blamed him for peeping that night.

In fact, to be honest, they have always been very good to me. After all, these two people are my relatives. She really wanted to go back to Ningshan to take a look when she had time.

Occasionally, she would hear people in the world mention Ling Yinglie breaking off the engagement and ruining her reputation. Every time she heard this, she felt depressed.

As time passed, I couldn't help but feel hatred building up in my heart.

Then he secretly decided one thing: Ling Yinglie, the Ai family has never intended to accept you as their concubine, how dare you say in the world that you have canceled the marriage to the Ai family.

The Ai family didn't take you seriously at first, but now the Ai family really wants to see with their own eyes who you are. How about the Ai family stop by your house to visit you when they go all the way to Dongsheng.

"God bless, the news of Ling Ying'an's disappearance has spread, and the rumors about Ling Yinglie and Du Shi have also spread. Why don't we go to Dongsheng for a stroll." Nalan Fengjin rolled his eyes, Chu Tianyou I knew she had another idea. He nodded seriously.

On the way, they had nothing to do, and occasionally when they were happy, they would pretend to be great heroes. When they saw something unfair, they would jump out to help many heroes. After winning some admiration and admiration, they would occasionally get a basket of eggs, potatoes, etc. It's more addictive than a hero.

However, they don't jump out of everything. Sometimes when they see each other's crowds, they get into random group fights, etc., but she doesn't pay attention to them.

After all, the Queen Mother once warned: Although it is the destiny of the emperor to put the world first, he must still be placed in the middle and others on both sides.

She always remembered this sentence very clearly. Besides, these days, persimmons are picky, and she understands this.

Thinking of this, I feel depressed. Queen Mother, my Queen Mother, the child is back. You can rest assured that the child is with you.

Mrs. Du, the Ai family must make sure that you have no way to survive and no way to die. This day is not far away, you wait.

Chu Tianyou watched from the side as her expression changed from clear to dark, and he was very frightened. Her sect master never acted according to common sense. I don't know where the trouble is coming from.

After walking for a few days, they arrived at Linjiang Town in Cangshan, intending to rest in the town for a night. They overheard people in the town saying that recently, soldiers and horses from the Zhennan Palace were stationed in Cangshan, not far from here. At the foot, we will attack the mountain early tomorrow morning, intending to wipe out the bandits in Cangshan in one fell swoop.

When Nalan Fengjin heard this, he couldn't help but become interested.

You must go and see the scene of officers and soldiers exterminating bandits. Moreover, the soldiers and horses of King Zhennan and the generals leading the troops must be from the family of Emperor Tianyuan. I don’t know who it is. I heard that Emperor Uncle Tianyuan has a son. , his name is Xuyan, he has great martial arts skills and is a handsome man well-known in southern Xinjiang. I wonder if he is here this time. I wonder how beautiful Nalan Xuyan will be? Will she be more beautiful than Nalan Hanqi?

The next morning, before dawn, Nalan Fengjin and Chu Tianyou got up and rushed to Cangshan Mountain. When they passed the foot of the mountain, they saw many officers and soldiers, about a hundred people, standing in formation at the foot of the mountain, as if waiting for orders.

The two tied their horses in the dark first, and then used Qinggong to climb up the mountain while it was still dark.

Not even halfway up the mountain, they saw the first gate of the bandit's stronghold. The two of them hid themselves and found a good position to wait for the officers and soldiers to attack the stronghold.

It wasn't until the sky was already slightly bright that he suddenly heard the sound of a horn from the bottom of the mountain. Nalan Fengjin regained his energy and hid behind a boulder, with weeds on his head and only a pair of twinkling eyes.

He noticed the faint arrow on the door of the Bandit Village and waited quietly.

"God bless you, you see this stronghold is set up in a dangerous position and is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Now the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain have made it clear to the bandits that I am coming to attack you. You should prepare quickly. The officers and soldiers have lost the opportunity. If this happens If you brazenly attack the mountain again, I'm afraid there will be no return."

Nalan Fengjin looked at the faintly shaking arrows on the village gate and nearby cliffs and sighed. Just when he thought this, he heard the officers and soldiers at the foot of the mountain rushing up the mountain shouting, as if they were afraid that the bandits would not know that they were coming. Nalan Fengjin felt a pang of regret in his heart. Really boring. Old fashioned tactics.

"Sect Master, look." Chu Tianyou patted him. At this moment, chaotic fighting sounds rang out in the village. Nalan Fengjin secretly wondered, could it be that the bandits were fighting among themselves at such a critical time? It's really not united, it's obviously a rabble.

Nalan Fengjin was thinking wildly when the officers and soldiers rushed up the mountain and began to hit the village gate with wooden stakes. However, the original village gate and the arrows faintly exposed on the surrounding cliffs were gone. After a while, the village gate was knocked open by the officers and soldiers. .

Nalan Fengjin was the first to see a man standing with a gun across the gate at the gate of the village, with a stern figure on his back. There were several corpses around him, all cut off at the waist. They were in a miserable state of death, with blood flowing all over the ground. The man's white robe was dripping with blood. Without touching him, just by looking at his back, Nalan Fengjin felt that this person was an extraordinary person, except that he was a little cruel.

He always had his back to the village gate. Just when Nalan Fengjin's eyes widened and he was ready to take in the surprise when he turned around, he saw the man suddenly waved his gun and pointed forward, shouting: "Kill! Not one of them!" Keep."

When the officers and soldiers heard the excitement among the crowd, they started slashing and killing. The remaining bandits were immediately killed, and then they rushed towards the second line of protection of the mountain stronghold.

At this time, Nalan Fengjin and two others who were hiding behind the boulder followed quietly.

In the second line of defense, the terrain was more dangerous. The bandits had seen the officers and soldiers coming, and took advantage of the high terrain to fire arrows at random. The man in white rushed to the front. At that moment, he just raised his arm, and all the officers and soldiers behind him immediately stopped the attack.

At this time, the random arrows were approaching. He suddenly lifted up his energy and jumped into the air. He swung his gun to chop down several arrows coming towards him. He stepped on the cliffs on both sides and flew away. In an instant, he rushed into the bandit's lair. Nalan Feng Jin couldn't help but admire his beautiful Qing Gong skills.

After a while, the second line of defense was also broken through by the officers and soldiers. The bandits retreated and were already in disarray. However, the officers and soldiers rushed straight into the bandits' lair like a broken bamboo.

There was a melee inside, and the surrounding cliffs were steep and there was no shelter. Nalan Fengjin looked at it from a distance and found it boring. Now that the victory or defeat was decided, there was nothing left to see. Although he wanted to take a look at the white-robed man. Although he looked like a man, he would not put himself in danger just to see what a man looked like, so he left Cangshan without hesitation.

On the way back, she passed by Linjiang. She looked far away from the shore and saw vast mountains in the distance. The water of Linjiang was a vast expanse of blue, with vast misty waves. There were dots of fish sails on the river, floating in the waves. She had just watched a bloody fight. , looking at such a peaceful and beautiful scenery, I felt my mood settle, and all my distracting thoughts disappeared. I couldn't help but sigh to Chu Tianyou next to me: "It's better to be alive."

"I feel the same way." Chu Tianyou nodded.

"The Tianque Continent has been made a mess by the Du family. Fortunately, these feudal kings can still suppress the situation." Nalan Fengjin sighed.

Because they got up too early in the morning, they didn't eat anything, and now they just felt hungry. So they went back to Linjiang Town, Cangshan, to find something to eat and fill their stomachs, while she was strolling around leisurely.

At this moment, someone from the government office at the street corner beat the gong and shouted: "The Cangshan bandits have been destroyed, the Cangshan bandits have been destroyed." When the people on the road heard this, they all looked happy and cheered for a while. One after another.

A passerby happily praised: "The Cangshan bandits have finally been wiped out. This is really a blessing for the people."

Another common people praised: "This Young Master Xu Yan is really powerful. It turns out that a hero comes from a young man." They all said so.

Mr. Xuyan? Nalan Fengjin was puzzled when he heard this: Could it be that the man who led the troops to attack the bandits this morning was indeed the young master from Emperor Tianyuan's family, Nalan Xuyan?

When I saw him today, I realized that this man's kung fu was really good. No wonder my mother often mentioned this man back then. The queen mother said that this life was as gentle as jade, and he was proficient in music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, poetry, literature, Taoism, and martial arts, as well as eighteen kinds of martial arts. He was like a god and as beautiful as the sun in the sky. People gave him the nickname: Mr. Xuyan.

Mr. Xu Yan is a famous handsome man in the south of the Yangtze River. It's a little regretful that he couldn't get a glimpse of Lushan's true face today.

This small town is quite comfortable to live in. Nalan Fengjin plans to stay here for one more night before leaving tomorrow. Chu Tianyou also followed her leisurely, enjoying the rare leisure time.

At night, the crescent moon hung high and stars filled the sky. Nalan Fengjin couldn't sleep at night because he slept for a long time in the afternoon. He climbed to the roof and lay down to watch the stars, feeling the breeze blowing on his face.

"Sect Master, do you want to see Jiangnan's sub-rudder?" Chu Tianyou climbed up and looked at her.

"Of course I want to go, wait for me to play for a few days." Nalan Fengjin said mischievously.

Chu Tianyou nodded.

The two of them sat on the roof and saw the sparkling waves of Linjiang from a distance. Nalan Fengjin couldn't help but want to play in the water.

Under the moonlight, the two came to the bank of the Linjiang River. The water here was gentle, there were trees all around, and it was deserted. Nalan Fengjin looked up at the stars in the sky and felt in a good mood. He suddenly remembered that he was with Jinse when he was a child. The childlike feeling of diving into the water from a high place and stepping on the shadow of the moon made me want to try it again.

She glanced at Chu Tianyou mischievously, took off her shoes, put them on the shore, stepped lightly, and used Qinggong to jump up to a tall tree on the shore. She spotted the crescent moon's curved reflection in the water and jumped suddenly. Go down.

But as soon as she entered the water, she felt something stepped on her feet, and then she heard a gurgling sound coming from under the water. She couldn't help but wonder. Just when she was about to dive in to take a look, she felt that there was a waterweed wrapped around her feet, and she couldn't shake it off. Don’t take it off.

She was so anxious that she couldn't help but kick and kick again and again. But at this moment, something under the water grabbed her calf. She was so frightened that she kicked and swung violently without even thinking about it. , kick hard.

Then he quickly jumped back to the shore.

"What's wrong?" Chu Tianyou saw her look panicked. asked nervously.

Nalan Fengjin looked back with a confused face, and saw a pair of hands suddenly stretched out from the water, and then half of his head came out, coughed a few times, and suddenly sank down again.

Only then did Nalan Fengjin see clearly that it was a person.

She suddenly understood and looked at Chu Tianyou in horror: "The person I stepped on just now was actually a person?!"

Chu Tianyou couldn't help being shocked after hearing this.

At this time, I saw the man's hands slowly sinking into the water, obviously drowning. Chu Tianyou hurriedly swam over and dragged the man ashore.

After landing on the shore, Nalan Fengjin found the man lying on the ground with a bulging belly and water coming from the corner of his mouth. He was a little at a loss.

Chu Tianyou first checked the person's pulse and sighed secretly: "This person is not dead yet."

Nalan Fengjin looked around and found a few pieces of clothing hanging on a crooked tree not far away. No need to think too much, they must belong to this man. She didn't see the clothes when she came, otherwise she wouldn't be so bold. Then he went into the water.

And she didn't expect that there would be someone under the water at that time. Alas, it was too late to say anything at this time. The top priority was to save this person.

Chu Tianyou glanced at Nalan Fengjin, and immediately pressed his hands on the man's chest, pouring the inner force into his hands and draining out all the water he had swallowed.

Nalan Fengjin was afraid that he would be injured, so he fed him another heart-protecting pill, covered his body with his clothes, and left quickly when he saw that his breathing had stabilized.

But before the two people were far away, they heard a person yelling in the forest: "Little thief! How dare you humiliate me like this!" Then there was only a click, like the sound of a tree trunk breaking, and then there was a bang. The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground.

Nalan Fengjin was startled and hurriedly pulled Chu Tianyou to jump up to a nearby tree. Using the moonlight, he looked towards the source of the sound and saw that the crooked-necked tree had fallen to the ground. The man next to him was now fully dressed and looking at The figure from behind seemed a bit familiar for a moment. After thinking about it for a moment, I suddenly thought of one person: the officer and general who attacked the mountain stronghold this morning! Mr. Xuyan!

At this time, under the moon, the man's back was tense, as if he was holding back his anger. He was holding a piece of paper in his hand, which had been crumpled into a ball, but he did not throw it away. I don't know what he thought of, but he actually threw the ball of paper Put it in my arms.

Nalan Fengjin was puzzled, and suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly touched her arms, and then she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. What's worse, the painting of her painted by Nalan Hanqi was lost.

Nalan Fengjin looked at Chu Tianyou depressedly. When Chu Tianyou saw something strange in her expression, he asked, "Sect Master, what's wrong with you?"

"That was Nalan Xuyan just now. That's Mr. Xuyan." Nalan Fengjin sat on a tree branch and looked at his toes depressedly, "I accidentally lost the painting painted by Nalan Hanqi."

"What?" Chu Tianyou opened his mouth in surprise. "Didn't you come to Jiangnan this time to find the King of Zhennan? You beat his son before we even met." Chu Tianyou glanced in the direction just now and thought, does this count as the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple? ah? !

"I..." Nalan Fengjin pouted helplessly.

"Sect Master...haha...hahaha" Chu Tianyou couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Sect Master, you have flooded the Dragon King Temple. Isn't Mr. Xuyan your cousin?"

"I didn't mean it. I didn't know he was in the water. I stepped on his face by chance. Besides, why did he catch me? I was scared too." Nalan Fengjin Covering his face, he was so embarrassed now.

"Okay, Sect Master, let's go." Chu Tianyou suppressed his smile.

"My painting." Nalan Fengjin was depressed.

"No, I'll let him draw a picture next time I see the crown prince." Chu Tianyou comforted.

"But... can I snatch it back, or steal it back?" Nalan Fengjin asked.

"Forget it, just steal it back. If you go out now, you won't bring it upon yourself. As for stealing it back, let's think about it in the long term." Chu Tianyou comforted: "You have to go to Zhennan Palace anyway. There are plenty of opportunities."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." Nalan Fengjin was depressed.

Chu Tianyou shook his head speechlessly, dried her clothes inside, carried her on his back, and used Qinggong all the way back to the inn.

Talk about both ends. That night, Mr. Xu Yan had the same mood as Nalan Fengjin. He dived into the water, held his breath and looked at the illusive reflection of the crescent moon in the water. After a long time, when he was about to jump out of the water, he saw a person suddenly falling from the sky. , stepped on his face, and stepped on him just as he was about to jump out of the water.

The incident happened suddenly. He choked on some water and began to have difficulty breathing underwater. He wanted to surface, but unexpectedly, the person above him kicked and kicked him.

He wanted to resist, but the man kicked him harder, until he was dizzy and blinded. He couldn't help but choke on more water. When he finally had a chance to surface, he was already a little unable to do what he wanted. He secretly thought to himself that today I was afraid that the odds were against me, but I still struggled to float up, trying to win a glimmer of hope.

He finally passed out. I don't know how long it took. When he woke up, he saw himself lying on the ground naked, with his clothes still casually covering him.

It was the first time in his life that he was in such a miserable situation. He was filled with anger and hatred, but had nowhere to vent.

Seeing that there was no one around, the thief who stepped on him must have escaped. After exercising for a while, he found that his body was not seriously injured, but there was a force protecting him.

It's the heart-protecting pill. Did the little thief give it to him? ! This elixir was expensive, and he was no longer an ordinary thief. He was a bit interesting, so he picked up his clothes from the shore and put them on. At this time, he found a piece of white paper underneath his clothes. He was curious, so he picked it up and looked at it.

Through the moonlight, he roughly saw the scene in the painting: a beautiful woman in the painting. He thought that this must not be a good person, and he secretly hid the portrait of the woman.

Unable to bear the bad breath, he struck the tree trunk beside him with his palm, causing the tree trunk to fall down. He secretly vowed to find the thief tonight. Nalan Fengjin had been hiding in a tree far away and never showed up.

That night, Nalan Fengjin tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep no matter what. A hidden worry became more and more serious in her heart. The painting fell into the hands of Nalan Xuyan. Although it was not serious, there was her disguised in the painting. The appearance of the master of Fenghuang Villa fell into the hands of others. It would be okay if it was destroyed. But it was kept by others. The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became. There was one thing she didn't want to admit. In fact, she particularly liked it. She couldn't explain why she just liked the painting. She wanted to get it back, but now it seemed that it was not that simple to get the painting back. She had to think carefully, how could she get the painting back? Nalan Fengjin thought for a while and decided: Steal!
