Chapter 40: Piercing the Heart

Mrs. Youluo slowly lowered her eyes, although she couldn't help but think that Nankong Qianqian let the people of Jiangsha Pavilion move out of Jiangling City, and a large part of them were people who wanted to use them to lure out the Annihilation Palace, but Mrs. Youluo paused, thinking that this was also impossible, after all, he had the Dusheng Mirror in hand, where did he need to help him find the people of the Annihilation Palace, but when she heard his last words, Mrs. Youluo couldn't help but be moved, he said it so seriously, even if it wasn't his sincerity, Mrs. Youluo also recognized it!

So she nodded slowly, bowed her head slightly to the south, and her tone was full of tiredness, "I know, more city lords raise their noble hands, I will sort out everything in the Silk Pavilion as soon as possible, and then move out of Jiangling City, and never bother again." ”

"That's good. After Nankong Qian said that, he turned around and left, and when he walked out, Wei Xi followed him by his side, "City Lord, what should we do with the Silk Pavilion and the others now?" he asked cautiously behind him, and Nan Kong Qian also turned around and spoke to him after he walked out of the Wei Lan Courtyard, "Send someone to secretly keep an eye on the movements of the Silk Pavilion, remember not to startle the snakes, even if they leave Jiangling City, they can't relax." ”

"Yes. Wei Xi nodded in agreement, but then became confused again, "But...... What to leave Gangneung City?"

"I have ordered that the Silk Pavilion be moved out of Gangneung City, and that he will never return. Nankong opened his mouth to explain to him, and Wei Xi was taken aback, "What does the city lord mean to let them leave Jiangling City forever?"

"Hmm. ”

"Why?!" Wei Xi was puzzled.

"What, why?"

"City Lord, isn't this Silk Pavilion colluding with the Annihilation Palace to harm the people of Jiangling City......? Just let them go so easily?" Wei Xi couldn't help frowning.

"Mrs. Youluo's identity is special, it is not easy to deal with, and the people in the Silk Yarn Pavilion are not fuel-efficient lamps, if they really fight, it will not only consume our energy, but also give the Extinction Palace a perfect opportunity to take advantage of, besides, I saw that the Yarn Pavilion has broken off the relationship with the Extinction Palace, and now let the Yarn Pavilion move out of Jiangling City, and it will also save them from joining forces with the Extinction Palace in the future, and kill us by surprise. ”

Nankong said the head of the way, Wei Xi suddenly heard it, "I see, the city lord is worried, but since this is the case, why does the city lord let people keep an eye on them all the time, is it because they are afraid that they will be more restless when they go out of the city?"

"I'm not worried about that. Nankong Qian said, "Lady Youluo has a clear distinction between public and private, and she has lived in Jiangling City for so many years, and Jiangling City can be regarded as kind to them, I don't think she will join forces with the Annihilation Palace to deal with us." ”

"Then why is the city lord ......?"

"I just want to see how the people from the Destruction Palace will react. Nankong slowly lowered his eyes, "Although the Annihilation Palace and the Silk Yarn Pavilion have broken up, I have never been at ease, the masters in the Xuan Yarn Pavilion are like clouds, and the Extinction Palace is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so I still have to pay more attention." ”

"The city lord is thoughtful, Wei Xi will definitely do his best. Wei Xi respectfully received the order.

"Hmm. Nankong nodded lightly, and then suddenly remembered the matter of the city order, so he turned his head to Wei Xi and said, "By the way, let Mu Lian go to the broken temple on the west side to find me tonight, I have something to discuss with him." ”

"Yes. ”

At night, in the valley outside the city, Bai Ningxi stood alone under the moonlight, looking up at the moon, standing with her hands behind her back, for some reason, she actually fell in love with this ethereal moonlight, just like silver sand, as thin as cicada wings, far away in the sky, even if it was beyond reach.

Dad, do you believe it? My cultivation actually reached the highest level of the Phantom Realm in one day, just a little, almost I was able to break through the Phantom and reach the Evil Spirit Realm directly!

Bai Ningxi thought about this in her heart, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth unconsciously, she slowly raised her hand, and with a slight force, a wave of magic breath wrapped around her fingertips, this light and casual feeling made her feel very comfortable, so good!

"See the palace master!" Suddenly, Dugu Hanqiu unconsciously appeared behind her, Bai Ningxi suddenly withdrew her hand and looked back at him, "Did you hear that?"

"I heard that Nan Kongqian was going to hold Nan Fengzhu's funeral ceremony in three days, and he would also succeed him as the city lord at that time. Dugu Hanqiu replied respectfully.

"...... three days later?" Bai Ningxi frowned, Dugu Hanqiu nodded, "Yes, now the city lord's mansion is preparing for the funeral ceremony, and Jiangling City has also strengthened its defenses, although there are dark guards, but it is not a problem, palace master, should we sneak in at this time and kill them by surprise?"

Bai Ningxi frowned, thought about it for a while, then shook her head and said in a firm tone, "No, we have to wait until the night before the funeral to act." ”

"Why isn't it on the day of the funeral, when there are so many people, isn't it better to do it?"

"I just thought of a way to control the southern sky easily. The corners of Bai Ningxi's mouth raised slightly, and Dugu Hanqiu looked puzzled, "What way?"

"Bone-spirit-flute. Bai Ningxi opened his mouth word by word, Dugu Hanqiu was suddenly startled, yes! The palace master still has the bone flute in his hand! That Nankong Qian has just lost Nanfeng bamboo, and he must be very sad in his heart, if he uses the bone flute to play quiet music at this time, perhaps, he can really use his sorrow to control him......

"What?" Seeing that he was silent, Bai Ningxi thought that he had doubts, and Dugu Hanqiu came back to his senses when he heard this, and hurriedly responded, "My subordinates just think that the palace master's plan may work." ”

"Nan Fengzhu just died, Nankong Qian must not be able to come out of the shadow of losing his loved ones so quickly, he was the most sad and sad time, once when Nan Fengzhu just passed away, that time we missed the opportunity, so there is no way, but another time, it is the day before Nan Fengzhu's funeral. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"Think about it. Bai Ningxi looked at Dugu Hanqiu and said: " Nan Kongqian never expected Nan Fengzhu's death, so at the moment he just died, and even for the next period of time, Nan Kongqian was definitely the saddest and sadest time, but he was the only son of the Nan family, Nan Fengzhu died, Jiangling City must have a lot of things for him to deal with and decide, and no matter how sad he was, he could only endure it in his heart and turn his grief into strength, and the release of his grief was just the day before Nan Fengzhu was about to hold a funeral, that night, Nan Fengzhu was lying in the coffin, not sealed, this was the last chance for Nan Kongqian to see his father in his life。 ”

Dugu Hanqiu suddenly realized when he heard this, "I see!

Bai Ningxi smiled lightly, but there was a hint of desolation and helplessness in her eyes, not that she understood Nankong shallow, nor that she was smart enough to be so perceptive to people's hearts, but that when her father died, she was the same......

"You, Qin Mulan and Qianfanmeng all took people to scatter around, ambushed around Jiangling City, don't be discovered, I'm worried that Nankong Qian will use the Dusheng Mirror to find our whereabouts, so separate the people, the more scattered the better. Bai Ningxi quickly regained her composure and ordered Dugu Hanqiu.

"What about you, the palace master?"

"Of course I'm staying here, since I want to use the bone flute to deal with Nan Kong Qian, then I have to hurry up, and then take out the quiet music score to practice, so as not to miss the time, this is our only chance, Nan Fengzhu is dead, once Nan Kong Qian succeeds to the position of city lord, then the dark guard of Jiangling City will appear, and at that time, it will be difficult for us to capture the Dusheng Mirror, so this time we must succeed no matter what!"

"Yes!"

The day before the funeral, Nan Fengzhu had already entered the coffin, but the coffin had not yet been covered, all the matters of the funeral ceremony had been prepared, just waiting for the funeral ceremony to be held tomorrow, Nan Fengzhu could enter the earth for peace, the night was deep, everything was as Bai Ningxi said, Nankong Qian came to the mourning hall in the house alone.

Before, he called Mu Lian to the broken temple on the west side, and wanted to hand over the city order to him and let him keep it on his behalf, but Mu Lian insisted on disobeying, saying that the city order could only be placed in the hands of the city lord, and no one could contact it.

Nankong is helpless, where does he need to turn the tide, he just wants to prevent it from happening, but unfortunately, Mu Lian doesn't understand his thoughts, maybe, he understands, it's just that he doesn't want to do this.

"What a dead brain!" Nan Kong......qian couldn't help but shake his head and sighed, he looked up and looked at his father's tombstone, "Dad, are all the dark guards in Jiangling City so brainless? Or are they all following your temperament?"

He remembered his willfulness and impulsiveness before, thinking of his previous repeated and half-dead father's anger, thinking of these, his eyes couldn't help but moisten, he has actually always been mentally prepared, there has always been, and his father has been telling him that he will not accompany him for too long, and one day, he will leave, but he never thought that this day would come so quickly, and all this would be so sudden.

But at a glance, Dad completely disappeared from his life.

Nan Kongqian couldn't help but sobbed in a low voice, the pain that he couldn't regret was a scar that he could never heal, and the night was heavy, as heavy as his heart.

And outside the city gate, the people of the Annihilation Palace have already begun to act, before Bai Ningxi let them scatter all over the place, surrounded outside Jiangling City, and then a small number of people with low cultivation took advantage of the slack of guards to sneak into the city, pretending to be ordinary people, hiding in the market, because the cultivation is not high, so no one has noticed.
