Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Way of the Crow Soldier and the Ghost

Blood Phoenix was lazily lying on a large spacious bed, her body was only covered with a small part of the quilt, her chest was full and firm, her thighs were firm and well-proportioned, if it weren't for the understanding of the efficacy of the Zhuyan Gu, no one would have thought that she was already a woman over forty years old.

She turned to the side slightly, looked at the topless silence, and said, "You seem to be still worried about He Zeyuan's affairs." ”

Shen Mo said coldly: "You are a smart woman, you know that you shouldn't talk too much about this matter." ”

The skin on his body was as white as his face, which made people shudder.

The Blood Phoenix sat up and said softly, "This Holy Sect, apart from me, who else can relieve your troubles?" ”

After being silent for a long time, he said: "Every time I try my best, but I always fall short, God's will is like this, what is there to say." ”

Blood Phoenix said: "The battle of Qingmu Gorge, although it was not exactly as you wished, but the vitality of the Central Plains sects was greatly damaged, and it was difficult to recover in the short term, we captured Li Muyun's son as a hostage, and Feng You's envoy side also successfully took the Thousand Machines Valley, once there is news from Feibai's side, no one can stop the great cause of our Holy Sect, just one He Zeyuan, why should you worry about it?" ”

He said silently: "He Zeyuan and I are the same kind of people, if we can't kill them all, there will be endless troubles." ”

The Blood Phoenix slowly stood up, letting the quilt slide off her body naturally, and walked towards Shen Mo with a step, the moonlight shining through the window lattice on her smooth and flawless carcass, making her more and more charming and moving.

Shen Mo didn't turn to look at her until the Blood Phoenix wrapped his arms around his waist and pressed his chest against his back, "In my heart, you are already the only strong person in this world, even if God is willing to oppose you, you can beat half the sky, right?" ”

"Katsuten's half-son?" Shen Mo raised his head, frowned slightly, and for a long time, he suddenly heard him shout in a low voice: "What a better than!" ”

Although the north of the capital is not as economically developed as the south, but the local products are abundant, and there are not a few merchants, there are endless large and small post stations along the way, Ye Xiaochuan knows the ability of Jinyiwei to track and explore, and he dared to stop after holding Su Ling for two hours in a row, even if he is now a martial artist, he can't help but be exhausted, the two found an inconspicuous post station, Ye Xiaochuan took off the fourth jade on the scabbard of the Linfeng sword, and asked the shopkeeper for thirty taels of silver, the value of the jade is far more than these, The shopkeeper smiled from ear to ear after getting it in his hand, Ye Xiaochuan didn't care, asked for two adjacent guest rooms, and instructed the shopkeeper to prepare tweezers, hot water, towels, bandages and other things and send them to the room.

At the beginning, Ren Pingsheng and his entourage were surrounded by the disciples of the Salt Gang in Jiangnan, Ye Xiaochuan took a righteous shot, although he was relieved, but he was stabbed by Zhang Yunting, who was "sick and warm", with a dragon marksmanship, Su Ling bandaged him afterwards, and he still felt very embarrassed. Now that things have changed, the Xia Qing he was thinking about at that time is no longer there, and he has been in southern Xinjiang for a long time, what kind of undressing and healing, bandaging medicine Yunyun has become a common thing in his eyes.

When the two arrived upstairs, Ye Xiaochuan closed the door of the house, quickly took off his shirt, sat down on the stool by himself, and said, "Senior sister, there are barbs on the top of the crossbow arrows used by Jinyiwei, you still need to use some strength." ”

Su Ling saw the man shirtless for the first time, his heart couldn't help but thump, thinking that Ye Xiaochuan had already proposed to the master, he was slightly relieved, first cleaned the wound with hot water, and then put the tweezers on the lamp to roast for a while, calmed down, turned over the skin and flesh of Ye Xiaochuan's wound, and used the tweezers to find the arrow.

The two arrows were buried deeply, and Su Ling's hands couldn't help but tremble a little.

When!

When the first arrow was pulled out, the scraped Ye Xiaochuan's flesh rolled outward, and the blood flowed, Su Ling only felt that his internal organs were twisted together, and he stretched the tweezers to another wound.

When! …… The second arrow also fell into the basin.

Ye Xiaochuan let out a long breath, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said with a forced smile: "It's done, I have the holy blood to protect the body, and the wound doesn't need to be medicated, just help me wrap it up." ”

Su Ling said "um", blushing and wrapping the bandage from Ye Xiaochuan's chest to his back, Ye Xiaochuan saw her two arms crooked, and said "oops" in his heart, and said secretly: "Oh no, I have been affected by He Qingqing's little girl, and I have already taken the defense of men and women lightly, and my junior sister has always been confined to etiquette, I'm afraid I can't adapt to it." Wei turned around, saw Su Ling's face was full of shame, and thought: "I haven't told my junior sister about treating her injuries in Kongming Valley yet, but she is so embarrassed just by seeing my back, if you tell her directly at this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for her to accept." Anyway, I have already mentioned my marriage to the master, so it's not too late to find a suitable time in the future. ”

Su Ling tightened the bandage and combed it evenly, and said, "Xiao...... Senior Brother Xiaochuan, you have a good rest, and if you have something, come and call me. ”

Ye Xiaochuan knew that she had the intention to avoid it, so he responded: "Okay, you should rest early." ”

Su Ling let out a "hmm", picked up all his belongings, lowered his head and walked out quickly.

Ye Xiaochuan let out a long sigh, put his back on the sugar, and gently closed his eyes.

He needed to sort out his thoughts.

"Although it has been confirmed that Senior Sister Su is not my biological sister, where is my sister? Who will steal her? ”

"Senior Sister Su is completely lost in martial arts right now, it is obviously impossible to practice the Yin and Yang Light Sword with her, if you go to Mingyue Palace for help according to Xiao Tang's proposal, and you are afraid that Senior Sister Su will be sad, how can this be good?"

"The Righteous Path Coalition is now suffering heavy casualties, I don't know how long it will be able to resist the Qilin Sect? If his radical method didn't work, Yan Song didn't care about the affairs of the Qilin Sect, would Shen Mo really set up another court in southern Xinjiang? ”

Ye Xiaochuan's heart moved, and he suddenly thought: "If I can let go of everything and return to the mountains and forests with Senior Sister Su, what will I do?" ”

This seemingly selfish thought only stayed in his mind for a moment, and then he suppressed it again, "Silence is not only my father-killing enemy, but also the leader of the Demon Sect, whether it is for my parents or for the sake of the common people in the world, I have the responsibility to face it, this is the righteousness of the world, how can I ......grow up because of the love of my children."

"What's wrong with a child's affection? How could I fail her again? ……”

Ye Xiaochuan struggled between advance and retreat for a long time, but he couldn't make a decision, and finally shook his head, sat up, crossed his knees, and practiced Zichen Xuangong, so as to put all his troubles aside.

After the True Qi in his body had been running for six weeks, Ye Xiaochuan suddenly felt that the True Qi was a little sticky and uncomfortable, and said in his heart: "Strange, since the opening of the Eight Veins of the Qi Sutra, there has never been such a strange phenomenon, it seems that today is indeed overworked, and the body is a little unbearable." Immediately, he concentrated his energy and concentrated on guiding the true qi to run.

The true qi in Ye Xiaochuan's body was like an unruly wild horse at this time, sometimes running wildly, unable to pull it, sometimes stopping and dragging it away. It didn't take long for Ye Xiaochuan's palms and palms of his feet to ooze fine beads of sweat, his whole body seemed to be wrapped in a fire, and his skin was flushed, he only thought that this was the result of the two major stunts of Heguang Tongchen and Liuhe Vertical and Horizontal in succession before, and he was injured and hugged Su Ling for a long time, and he didn't take it to heart, but he didn't know that this was actually a sign that Zichen Xuangong was about to break through the ninth level and reach the tenth level.

Zichen Xuangong is divided into twelve realms, of which the ninth is a watershed. From the first to the ninth stage, practitioners only need to practice diligently, and when they reach the time of jumping, they can successfully rush through the level, if they can be lucky enough to reach the tenth level or above, they can be called "Dacheng", and each level is very dangerous, and the slightest carelessness will have to worry about their lives, and they usually need the help of the division commander when rushing to the level. Among the disciples of the Taiqing Palace, Zhang Boshan has the highest skill, but he happens to be in the ninth realm, so none of the disciples in the sect know the mysteries above the ninth level.

Ye Xiaochuan didn't know that this was the image of the tenth realm, but it made him concentrate and calm his mind like water, if he knew that he was about to surpass his senior brother Zhang Boshan, his emotions would fluctuate, and there was no one around him to help him, so he would have to go crazy.

After about half an hour, the true qi in the body finally returned to nature. Ye Xiaochuan only felt that his whole body was transparent, and he was like a Buddha who had just recovered from a serious illness, so he collected his strength, opened his eyes, and found that he could see a table and a chair in the house in the dark, and he could hear the insects outside the house ten zhang away, in addition, he also smelled a faint aroma in the air.

“…… It's a fan! ”

Ye Xiaochuan suddenly jumped up, picked up the Linfeng Sword, and slapped it on the wall with a palm, instantly piercing a big hole in the wall.

The windows of Su Ling's room next door were wide open at this time, but the room was empty.

Ye Xiaochuan's heart sank, jumped out of the window, and before he could land, a strong wind suddenly rose above his head, Ye Xiaochuan's tenth level of Xuan Gong had been completed, and he judged that there were four people above pulling a huge net just by feeling, and when he bent his back and hugged his knees, he made a falling figure and accelerated downward. The moment he touched the ground, he stabbed four swords in a row with his backhand in different directions, which was exactly where the four people were about to land.

The four of them suffered pain in their ankles, and their center of gravity was unstable when they landed, Ye Xiaochuan took the opportunity to jump upwards and rushed into the giant net.

There was a cheer from the darkness, "Good means!" ”

Ye Xiaochuan threw the net rope aside and said, "Who is under your feet, please show up and speak." ”

The man said, "If you want to save people, come with me!" As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of the reins in the woods, followed by a series of crisp horses' hooves.

Ye Xiaochuan knew that there must be an ambush in the forest, but because he was worried about Su Ling, he couldn't take care of a lot, so he immediately used his body to chase after him, fortunately, at this time, Ye Xiaochuan's ear and eyesight were better than before, and he could see the figure of the person clearly in the dark, seeing that there was only a distance of three zhang before and after, the man suddenly reflexively shot a crossbow arrow with a crossbow, Ye Xiaochuan saw it clearly, and avoided it sideways, but saw dozens of black shadows falling from the top of the tree, surrounding himself.

Ye Xiaochuan stopped, and the person in front of him also restrained the galloping horse, turned the horse's head to Ye Xiaochuan, and said, "I have heard that Lingxiao Dao's long sword technique is outstanding, you might as well join my three-talent array to give it a try." ”

Ye Xiaochuan looked around and found that everyone was wearing shields, so he suddenly thought of something and asked, "Are you the night crow troops of the Jinyi Guard?" ”

Immediately, the man said: "Yes, we are not the same as the guards who accompanied Lord Lu to the Taiqing Palace to arrest you during the day. ”

The "Night Raven" is a special unit in the Jinyi Guard, and it is generally not easily used. Each member of the team has undergone rigorous training, and their skills are far above those of ordinary brocade guards, especially at night combat. It is rumored that these people wear a special black gauze blindfold during the day, which can be used to disguise their appearance, and because their eyes can no longer withstand the sun, and at night, they can rely on their visual superiority to carry out various hidden or assassination missions.

Ye Xiaochuan had already seen Su Ling lying on the back of the man's horse, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and said, "I heard that the Night Raven Army can only be mobilized by the current saint, but I didn't expect that I, a little traitor to the Taiqing Palace, would have this kind of treatment, it's really an honor." ”

The leader of the night crows was silent for a moment, and suddenly he drank, "Get it for me!" ”

The crow soldiers moved when they heard the order, and the five long knives were directed at Ye Xiaochuan from different directions, the weapons used by the night crows were longer than the general embroidered spring knives, and the blades were specially treated, black and not easy to reflect, Ye Xiaochuan judged the trend of the knife completely by feeling, swung the sword to swing away three of them, and avoided the other two, and took a big step towards the northwest, just about to break through, and there were six long knives attacking from the right front and the rear, these knives were very fast, and the angle was very tricky, Ye Xiaochuan even blocked and flashed, moving left and right, Finally got out between the blades, and four more long knives fell from their heads.

After repeating this for five or six rounds, Ye Xiaochuan found that he was always surrounded in the middle, and the enemies around him kept changing, and he said in his heart: "It's not good, every time I move my position, I just fall into the trap they designed, and at the same time, they will change the formation according to my position, and the internal and external personnel alternately come to consume my physical strength, so it's not a way to go on like this." In a hurry, he forced a breath of true qi, and the Linfeng Sword shook off, and cast "Harmony with Light and Dust", and flicked out several long knives near his body.

Seeing his movements, the leader of the Night Ravens guessed that he was going to perform the "Liuhe Vertical and Horizontal" next, and shouted: "Emperor!" ”

The crow soldiers retreated half a step at the same time, knelt on one knee, and thrust their shields into the ground with their left hands, blocking their entire bodies. When it was too late, Ye Xiaochuan's sword qi spread out in all directions, the grass and trees scraped were broken, and the sand and gravel were splashed, but the crow soldiers did not move like a rock.

When the strong wind subsided, the leader of the night crows said again: "Collect!" ”

The crow soldiers stood up again, shields in their left hands and swords in their right, and entered a state of readiness, seemingly unharmed.

When the crow soldiers used shields to protect their faces, Ye Xiaochuan finally saw the complete three-talent formation, and in shock, a familiar picture suddenly flashed in his mind, "Hetu!" ”

In the first biography, Fuxi looked at the pattern on the body of the dragon horse of the Yellow River and created "Bagua", and the pattern on the body of the dragon horse is called "River Map". During Ye Xiaochuan's treatment of injuries in Kongming Valley, he had seen this picture in the materials of Song Yingxing's study, but at that time, he only found that the sum of the points in the horizontal, vertical, and oblique directions of this picture was always equal to fifteen, and he did not carefully study the mysteries in it.

This sentence does not only apply to readers.

After this fierce battle, Ye Xiaochuan's breath was already chaotic, and the sword wound on his back began to ache faintly, Ye Xiaochuan tried to delay the time to recover his strength, and said with a smile: "The crow soldier ghost is indeed worthy of its reputation." ”

Unmoved, the leader of the crow soldiers was unmoved, but coldly threw out a word: "Hunt!" ”

The long knife that had caused a headache swung again. Ye Xiaochuan greeted the eight generations of the leader's ancestors in his heart, and thought, "That's it, now I have to take the risk and give it a try!" "At the place where his wrist was raised, the Linfeng Sword buzzed, and suddenly turned into a silver light, shooting towards the leader of the crow soldiers like lightning.

"The sword flies to the sky!"
